Suzsplaining: Screwball vs. Contemporary Rom Com
Manage episode 298715450 series 2875264
In this edition of Suzplaining, Suzanne draws connections between the screwball comedies of the 1930s/40s, long believed to be the pinnacle of the romantic comedy, and more contemporary romantic comedies. What is the foundation of the screwball comedy, and how have the rom-coms of the 2000s/10s adapted those elements to our contemporary courtship context? The conversation is a little funny, a little sexy, and a little bit about the patriarchy.
Drink each time Suzanne recommends that Hannah watch Palm Springs.
