Ep #21 - Bad Education & Los Olvidados

Jacob has been busy watching movies while social distancing, including watching the entire Pirates trilogy in less than 48 hours. We watch Bad Education starring Hugh Jackman on Chandler’s suggestion and the BFI movie of the week, Los Olvidados (1950), is a harrowing account of growing up in poverty in ‘50s Mexico City.
