Episode 235: The BSAs of "Matilda" (1996)

We wrap up Family Movie Month with what can best be described as “Carrie” for kids. (With a surprising scoop of “Texas Chainsaw  Massacre” and an important connection to “Scream 2”!) Despite its spooky undertones (and Roald Dahl roots), “Matilda” is also an enthralling coming of age story featuring small legend Mara Wilson,  Embeth Davidtz’s Icon to the Introverted, Miss Honey, TV royalty Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman, Best Supporting Jean Speegel Howard and Pam Ferris tearing the scenery from limb to limb as Trunchbull. (And that Rusted Root song! That cake!)
