Terry Gilliam is serving up Bruce Willis in a full-body condom time-traveling to 1990s Philly to hang out with a wild-eyed Brad Pitt? And America says... Yes please! We love it!
'12 Monkeys' probably shouldn't work on any level, but it was a critical and box-office hit that changed sci-fi filmmaking and Hollywood as a whole. It also evolved how we tell time travel stories with a fascinating approach to time loops. We dig into all of that, the French short film 'La Jetée that inspired this script, and our favorite tracks from "The Return of Bruno" (okay, maybe not that last part), as break down this modern classic about a dozen or so primates!
