June 2024 Bonus: Godzilla Minus One is GOOD

Season 3 · Episode 19

Sunday, August 25, 2024 • Duration 49:37

Originally posted to Patreon on July 9th, 2024

Come for the monsters, stay for the collectivism. We skipped a recap on this one because we feel really strongly you should just watch this one for yourself, and as a Certified Wimp™️, I can attest it is not scary!! So, go forth!

Content warning for mentions of World War II, suicide, and air strikes.

May 2024 Bonus: San Junipero

Season 3 · Episode 18

Saturday, August 24, 2024 • Duration 57:19

Oh my god you guys, they've got lesbians in the Metaverse.

Surprise! Neither of us had seen this Black Mirror episode, and uh, well, it wasn't our cup of tea. BUT we can appreciate it as a historical artifact, even if its After Life brought to you by Big Tech premise was never going to land for us.

Catfight (2016)

Season 3 · Episode 9

Monday, April 22, 2024 • Duration 01:03:30

We watched the very American black comedy Catfight (2016), written and directed by Onur Tukel and starring Sandra Oh and Anne Heche. And, man, does this movie pack a punch (pause for laughter.) Haley falls more in love with Sandra Oh, and Claire tries to unpack this movie's worldview.

Content warning for discussions of war and violence.

Producers Note: If you think you would be frustrated by two Gen Z'ers, who had difficulty remembering that this movie was actually reacting to the 2003 Iraq War (that they were too young to be cognizant of in terms of socio-cultural reactions) and not the time it was made in, talk about American entitlement and attitudes towards war and the military broadly, maybe skip this one. We did our best, but I for one hear our bias in terms of two leftists who have been alive in a mostly post social media world.

If you have thoughts about this film, or our discussion about it, I'd love to hear from you! Our DMs and inbox are open to you!

Lovesong (2016)

Season 3 · Episode 8

Friday, March 29, 2024 • Duration 53:27

Claire has been swayed to the side of quiet indies by the power of Jena Malone. This week we talked about Lovesong (2016), written and directed by So Yong Kim and starring Riley Keough and Jena Malone.

Just know Haley is kicking herself for not making the walking into the woods with the woman you love and leaving knowing that you still love her but your paths are diverging connection to Blue (2002) while we were recording. We have a Substack now, so maybe an expansion on that will show up there in the next month or so.

The YouTube video Haley mentions near the top:
The Problem With Lesbian Romance Novels - a sunny book nook

The actual quote about the time skip that Haley flubbed"
"Three years the wound is still open a little, it’s just enough time to transform out of their past."

The Handmaiden (2016)

Season 3 · Episode 7

Friday, March 15, 2024 • Duration 01:06:27

Damn... ladies truly are the dolls of maids. It's our Patreon pick! As voted by our patrons, this week we talked about The Handmaiden (2016), directed by Park Chan Wook and starring Kim Tae-ri and Kim Min-hee.

There's a reason why there are so many academic papers published on this film. We did our best, but we are just two gays who spent two full minutes making sex jokes using research paper jargon, so no experts to be found here.

Bottoms (2023)

Season 3 · Episode 6

Thursday, February 29, 2024 • Duration 44:12

This is the movie of all time.
-Claire

This week we watched Bottoms (2023), directed by Emma Seligman and starring Ayo Edebiri and Rachel Sennott, and, man, we liked it a lot. If this had come out when Haley was in high school, she would have probably tried to commit it to memory. Do teens still do that? Or am I aging myself?

Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022)

Season 3 · Episode 5

Monday, February 19, 2024 • Duration 01:00:06

Happy extraordinarily belated Lunar New Year! This week we covered Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022) written and directed by The Daniels and starring Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, and Stephanie Hsu. Oops! Another one of Haley's favorite movies. Claire is very kind and lets her gush a lot. Like, a lot a lot.

Content warning for brief mention of suicide.

Nina's Heavenly Delights (2006)

Season 3 · Episode 4

Friday, January 19, 2024 • Duration 01:01:00

We did it! We found the movie that finally made Claire regret agreeing to this podcast, and somehow it wasn't a quiet indie! This week we watched Nina's Heavenly Delights (2006) starring Shelley Conn and Laura Fraser and directed by feminist documentarian Pratibha Parmar.

We wanted a fun rom-com with a big heart and we mostly got a reminder of how hard it is to thread that needle. We're glad this movie exists though, even beyond it showcasing the perfect example of an early 2000's going-out top.

Bound (1996)

Season 3 · Episode 3

Thursday, January 4, 2024 • Duration 52:50

This week we watched Bound (1996) written and directed by the Wachowski Sisters and starring Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly. Claire's love of this lesbian classic is infectious, and Haley just found out that Jennifer Tilly voiced Celia in Monster's Inc. Seriously though, do other people know that? Was I alone in the dark about this?
