Today, I'm going to start my discussion on the HBO miniseries Sharp Objects (2018). There is so much to unpack here that this is Part 1 of 3! We have missing girls, southern gothic belles, missing teeth, and of course, sweet tea all around. Dive in with me, won't you?
[This episode was originally recorded in April 2021.] SPOILER WARNING if you have never seen Sucker Punch (2011), which you should by the way! Today I'm going to dissect a film that's all about oppression, trauma and coping with trauma, and the will to survive. Let's get into it!!
Today I talk about the gay cult classic But I'm a Cheerleader (1999)! You guys, this movie is Clueless but with lesbians and Natasha Lyonne so it's basically perfect. Let's also unpack the ol' Bury Your Gays trope and what we really love and need to see in LGBT cinema! I also read the short story "The Last Night of the World" by Ray Bradbury. Leave your questions in the comments section for me to answer in the next episode!
