    Katie and Bridget break whales out of captivity as they re-watch the 90's movie: Free Willy! It's a story all about how unconditional love for an orphan and/or a kidnapped orca will lead to wholesome moments AND iconic Michael Jackson songs! Come along as we meet Jessie, an orphan who hates everyone and everything, except for his new bff Willy the killer whale. When Jessie gets a 12 year old job at the adventure park where Willy lives, they form a bond centered around shared trauma, fish, and angst. After Jessie discovers that the owners of the park are going to try to kill Willy for insurance money (this is apparently a real thing!!!), it's up to him and his adult friends to help bust Willy out and return him to his family - who have straight up just been living in ocean like ten feet away from the park this entire time. Will Willy be able to jump the jetty and make it back to his family in time? Did this movie actually shoot a giant mechanical whale over a child actor to get their money shot!? Released in 1993, it stars Jason James Richter, Lori Petty, Michael Madsen, Jayne Atkinson, August Schellenberg, and Michael Ironside.
