142: Marnie (1964) and Emily the Criminal (2022)
Manage episode 367928416 series 2901289
We check out a couple of films with criminal women. Alfred Hitchcock had just come off a run of four of his classic films when he directed "Marnie" in 1964. The story of a woman thief with a dark past, who has a weird relationship with a rich guy. The movie's poster had the words, suspenseful, sex, mystery, and there was none of those. On the brighter side, "Emily the Criminal" (2022) is a tight, interesting and well acted commentary on the world of work.
Next up, multi-storied films is our theme with Ang Lee's "Eat Drink Man Woman" (1994) and Steve Martin in "Parenthood" (1989).
