E9: Standing in Front of a Boy
E9.1 My Heart Will Go On
Emma and Chloe confront the ghosts of pretty boys past, in this episode where they look at white masculinity in the 1990s and its legacy. They explore the careers of Leonardo DiCaprio and Hugh Grant, and how their careers and reputations have survived into the present while others’ didn’t. They also consider the ‘grunge’ movement, and how claims for the dissolution of the boundaries between men and women, despite some success, also left many women behind.
