Cocaine crucifixes, 27-year-old teens, and the decadence of the elite—it's time to discuss 1999's absolutely buckwild Cruel Intentions! Join us as we examine the cultural context of the late 90s, the intentions of the author (who is occasionally dead), and why a movie about horrible people being awful to one another is still so much fun.
Warning: This episode has trigger warnings for, oh, everything. Sexual assault, emotional manipulation, drug abuse, death, et cetera. There's also a generous amount of cussing and discussion of sex. It's raunchy.
