Film Kids Giant Squids

24: Gaslight. Gatekeep. Exploit.

Episode Summary

Once Upon a Time... In Hollywood and The Haunting of Sharon Tate: Filmmakers exploit Sharon Tate with a fictionalized retelling of her death.

Episode Notes

127 Hours with a Film Kid: Brooke takes Lindsey through some shallow dives as we discuss Nicolas Cage, Ted Bundy drama, Lord of the Rings, and Lindsey’s favorite topic: Unions.

Once Upon a Time... In Hollywood: After putting it off for 23 episodes, Brooke is finally forced to discuss Quentin Tarantino, and it goes just about how you’d expect. Other topics include the overwhelming presence of feet, and Brooke saying “self-indulgent” and “pretentious” more times than Margo Robbie has lines. 

The Haunting of Sharon Tate: In a film that equally upsets us but for vastly different reasons, we avoid discussing this clearly exploitive film by focusing on Gibby being a terrible nickname, the surprising recent invention of 9-1-1, and the mythos of Archeologists.
