  • Carol (Part 2)
    Dec 5 2023

    Happy Carol Season! We're back with part two of the Ballad of Aird and Belivet. In this episode, our two leading ladies embark on the romance of the midcentury, heading west to Waterloo in Carol's 1949 Packard. We glory in the glamor, the drama, and the unabashed romanticism of the visual storytelling and the wonderful performances of Mara and Blanchett, and swoon over one of the best movie endings of all time. Buckle up, passengers!

  • Carol (Part 1)

    There's no point in trying to contain our excitement, y'all...it's Carol Season! Join Emily and Rachael in part 1 of our Carol celebration. In this episode, we cover the incredible story behind this gorgeous film, gush over its beautiful score, costuming and cinematography, and praise the performances of Rooney Mara and Cate Blanchett as Therese Belivet and Carol Aird (Emily in particular freaks out at length over Cate as Carol). We also recount our own shop girl experiences and discuss hot women smoking in cinema without endorsing it in real life. Fasten your seatbelts!

    We're back! And right in time for Halloween, with another cult queer and feminist classic - Nicholas Ray and Joan Crawford's 1954 Trucolor Western, Johnny Guitar! This movie is everything. Join Emily with Scott and Pete from the Movies That Made Us Gay podcast to celebrate everything - from the character name "Vienna" (no last name) to Joan Crawford's makeup to Mercedes McCambridge's wonderfully unhinged antagonist Emma Small, plus potential drag routines inspired by the film. Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a rowdy night!
