Coraline with J.D. Amato
The ultimate connoisseur of context, the guru of camera gear - our friend JD Amato makes his triumphant return to the main feed to walk us through the magic and genius of Henry Selick\u2019s masterpiece CORALINE. For listeners who never had the chance to catch this film in its original 3D release, we attempt to describe Selick\u2019s absolute mastery of the form. We go long on the history of Laika studios, from Will Vinton\u2019s California raisins, to the ultimate \u201cnepo baby\u201d Travis Knight\u2019s (aka \u201cChilly T\u201d) ascension to the throne.
