Oscar, wir müssen reden - Bonus Biennale 1932: À Nous la Liberté & Mädchen in Uniform Oscar, wir müssen reden...

"Oscar, wir müssen reden ..." ist ein Podcast, bei dem wir in der Regel die Filmgeschichte durch die Linse der Best-Picture-Oscarkategorie und aller Nominierten betrachten... und möglicherweise verzweifeln. In dieser zweiten Bonusfolge für das Oscarjahr 1932 betrachten wir aber nun eine Gegenperspektive, nämlich das erste Filmfestival überhaupt, die Biennale (6. bis 21. August 1932), indem wir die humorvolle Klassensatire "À Nous la Liberté" (1931) von René Clair (Gewinner "Amüsantester Film") dem ersten lesbischen Film aller Zeiten, "Mädchen in Uniform" (1931) von Leontine Sagan (Gewinner "Beste technische Perfektion"), entgegenhalten wollen.
