155: Perfect Blue (1997)

“Sensei, I’m scared that my other self will do something that I don’t know about…”

One of the greatest animated films ever crafted, Satoshi Kon's PERFECT BLUE is a terrifying coming-of-age story of obsession, stolen identity, and the way the public at large feels entitled to consume the idea of young starlets. In discussing arguably the scariest movie ever covered on the podcast, The Wives Colangelo reflect on what it means to be a public figure, praise animated films not geared toward young audiences, and sing the praises of a genuinely perfect film.
