Manage episode 340984962 series 3313521
TS10 was announced at the VMAs, and this episode was recorded soon after the night of the event. (Sorry it took so long to get out, but it was a beast to edit, since the raw footage was over 3 hours long. Our patrons got early + exclusive video access though, if you want to check out our patreon!! https://www.patreon.com/TheLavenderMenace) Like every other swiftie and every other bitch who thinks Taylor Swift is gay on the planet, there is so much to unpack in the Midnights album announcement post, so we get into that in lieu of our typical hot takes portion of the first section of our regularly scheduled three part podcast episode. For the shared media review and discussion portion, we watched each others' favorite lesbian period films to talk about them with each other. In our tier ranking lesbian film video, as seen here https://youtu.be/aPNf6ji-wnQ, people were in the comments talking about The Handmaiden (2016) dir. Park Chan Wook, which forced Renaissance to revisit it despite not particularly enjoying it as much as everyone else seems to during their first viewing attempts. Sunny discusses her thoughts on Renaissance's favorite film, the very sweet and wholesome (and indie and not as well known!!!) Summerland (2020) dir. Jessica Swale. Finally, for media recommendations, Renaissance recommends the television series Severance from Apple TV, and Sunny recommends the recently released novel Schmutz by Felicia Berliner.
