Episode 79: Cruella & Disney’s Darker Turn
Disney’s "Cruella" screeches into theaters this Memorial Day weekend, exploring the origin story of "101 Dalmatians’" Cruella de Vil. The Plugged In team takes a look at Disney villains as a whole and examines how the new movie trends into the darker, grittier twists and turns Disney has taken the last few years. You’ll see why it’s critical to talk about the stories you and your family choose to engage in so you can address the ideas and values they deliver.
