*Take this poll to vote for the films you’d like us to cover on @ Movies in May! More details below:* 

We’re celebrating the birthday of Keiichi Hara’s film The Wonderland by releasing our @ Movies review of the film! Is the film as wonderful as Hara’s previous feature Miss Hokusai, or is it no wonder why it’s fallen under the radar? We discuss the film’s clever casting, child-friendly coming-of-age story, eclectic characters, and the most important topic of all – how to make the CATS movie better! 

Remember, vote for the FOUR films you’d like us to cover in May in this poll!

We’ll announce our choices on the Violet Evergarden: Eternity and the Auto-Memory Doll episode, which will be out on Friday, May 8th!
