DeRazzled - Blonde, Part 1 - Red Meat Flavored; or, What Are We Even Doing Here?
Manage episode 371014348 series 2979237
The end of season 2 begins! We finally begin our coverage of the latest winner of Worst Picture, 2022's Blonde! We pick apart what worked and didn't work about Andrew Dominik's bewilderingly problematic take on the "bionovel" originally written by Joyce Carol Oates. We break down some of the biggest historical fabrications in this story, Jack tells us some theater stories, we gush over how great Toby Huss is, and we may or may not do JFK impressions. Also, we talk more about the Unofficial Willem Dafoe Bad Art Short Film Festival we're organizing for next year!
CW: Sexism, misogyny, domestic violence, abuse, historical inaccuracies, miscarriages, abortion
