Paid in Puke S6E2: I, Tonya
Manage episode 300126730 series 2955049
On today's episode, we're setting the record straight with Craig Gillespie's 2017 bio dramedy, "I, Tonya", starring Margot Robbie, and Allison Janney. This film is a little miracle with its pitch-perfect performances, Rashomon story-telling, meta fourth-wall breaking, Cohen-esque comedy, ACAB-ery, and a bangin' soundtrack to boot. We manage to have a very fun conversation about a very HEAVY-hitting story, the egregious double-standards in sports crime prosecution, and what happens to a woman who is "the wrong kind of poor" in this country.
This episode references a groundbreaking piece on Tonya Harding by Sarah Marshall. Check it out.
