"The world is full of nice, ordinary little people who live in nice, ordinary little houses on the ground. But didn't you ever dream of a house up on a tree top?" We watched "The Swiss Family Robinson" (1960) with author Greg Mania, and we're still deciding what our Luxury Items would be.  We do our best to navigate the discussion of the wildly racist depictions of the pirates as well as the clear examples of animal endangerment - needless to say a rewatch of this film is stressful. But we're here to talk about our good memories with this beloved Disney live action movie.  We clearly remember where we were the first time we saw shirtless Fritz (James MacArthur) and Ernst (Tommy Kirk) frolicking under a waterfall, or wrestling on the beach for the affections of Roberta (Janet Munro). For many - like our guest this week Greg - this movie is the clear answer to the age old question "when did you know you were gay?" Not for nothing, "Father" Robinson (Sir John Mills - Hayleys real life dad) was making us feel some type of way climbing those ropes and building that luxurious mansion in the trees. Would we stay on the island to live happily with Roberta or follow Ernst back to the modern world? We gotta go with Ernst on this one.
