    Ep. 13- The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021) ft. Prof. Kathryn Schwarz

    Joining us for a discussion of Joel Coen's 2021 adaptation of Shakespeare's Macbeth is Professor Kathryn Schwarz, who helps us figure out why this is, in fact, a very queer film/play. We talk about why Lady Macbeth is so compelling (hint: high school readings lists may be partially to blame), the unique black and white style of this film, and varying portrayals of the witches. Content warnings for the film: murder, decapitation, child death __________ Follow us on social media!

    Ep. 12- The Hunger (1983)

    In this episode, we analyze Tony Scott's 1983 film The Hunger, with its goth nightclubs, gauzy curtains, and pigeons that are indoors for some reason. Topics of conversation include the artistic merits of Twilight, spilling sherry on your tshirt as a method of flirting, gay vampires, and the male gaze towards queer women. Also, side note: the audio got a little messed up when we started recording, so please bear with us for the first few minutes. We promise the audio gets better a little bit into the episode! Content warnings for the film: murder, suicide, child death, animal death ___________ Follow us on social media!

    Today, we discuss Ari Aster's 2019 film Midsommar. Topics of discussion include whether the film should be read as feminist (we don't really think so), the genre of folk horror, and what makes a cult. Also Harry Styles fanfic for some reason?
