FFR The Childrens Hour #podcast Feminist Frequency 2024-10-16 | ICYMI: Alonso Duralde returned to #FemFreqRadio to discuss THE CHILDREN'S HOUR (1961)
THE CHILDRENS HOUR | FFR 257 Feminist Frequency 2024-10-10 | Film critic and podcast host Alonso Duralde previously joined us for a discussion about 1950s Hollywood, and it was such a treat to have him return to the show. He recently published the film history compendium Hollywood Pride: A Celebration of LGBTQ+ Representation and Perseverance in Film, so what better film for us to watch together than William Wyler's 1961 opus of lesbian shame, THE CHILDREN'S HOUR, starring Audrey Hepburn and Shirley MacLaine.Discussed in this episode:- Hollywood Pride: hachettebookgroup.com/titles/alonso-duralde/hollywood-pride/9780762485895- The Celluloid Closet (1995): letterboxd.com/film/the-celluloid-closet- Our podcast episode about the film Seconds: feministfrequency.com/video/seconds-ffr-253- Alonso's previous visit to Feminist Frequency Radio: feministfrequency.com/video/1950s-hollywood-with-alonso-duralde-ffr-204Find Alonso:- instagram.com/alonso.duralde- The Film Library, a Kanopy podcast: letterboxd.com/film/the-celluloid-closetFind Kat:- twitter.com/kat_ex_machina- letterboxd.com/katexmachinaFind AC:- instagram.com/aclamberty - letterboxd.com/aclambertyFind Us:- Join our Patreon: patreon.com/femfreq- Our Website: feministfrequency.com- Subscribe to FFR on Apple Podcasts: apple.co/2t4wu4I- Twitter: twitter.com/femfreq- Instagram: instagram.com/femfreq- NEW: Letterboxd: letterboxd.com/femfreq
BROADCAST NEWS | FFR 256 Feminist Frequency 2024-09-20 | We were so excited to welcome author and journalist Emma Specter to the show, that we asked them if we could talk about their favorite movie. Join us as we traverse journalism onscreen in James L. Brooks' 1987 film BROADCAST NEWS, starring Holly Hunter, William Hurt, and Albert Brooks. We also ask Emma about the process of writing her reported memoir, MORE, PLEASE, and what she might say about elements of the movie "as a private citizen," versus in her official capacity as culture writer for Vogue.Discussed in this episode:- More, Please: On Food, Fat, Bingeing, Longing, and the Lust for Enough: bookshop.org/p/books/more-please-on-food-fat-bingeing-longing-and-the-lust-for-enough-emma-specter/20301276?ean=9780063278370- Emma's review of She Said: https://dirt.fyi/article/2022/12/all-the-things-she-saidFind Emma:- emmaspecter.com- twitter.com/EmmaSpecter- instagram.com/specteremmaFind Kat:- twitter.com/kat_ex_machina- letterboxd.com/katexmachinaFind AC:- instagram.com/aclamberty - letterboxd.com/aclambertyFind Us:- Join our Patreon: patreon.com/femfreq- Our Website: feministfrequency.com- Subscribe to FFR on Apple Podcasts: apple.co/2t4wu4I- Twitter: twitter.com/femfreq- Instagram: instagram.com/femfreq- NEW: Letterboxd: letterboxd.com/femfreq
TWISTERS | FFR 255 Feminist Frequency 2024-09-12 | Kat and A.C. are starving for a blockbuster to make them feel something, as if the movies are actually, finally back. So, they saw Lee Isaac Chung’s TWISTERS, and unfortunately—they’re still hungry. Listen in as they hypothesize about what Glenn Powell’s character was doing in the years before the events of this film took place (while Anthony Ramos’ was “working for the military” and Daisy Edgar-Jones’ was Being A City Girl). Could the tornado wrangler have been doing crunches? Optimizing his SEO?

FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA | FFR 254 Feminist Frequency 2024-06-27 | Kat and A.C. ~*witnessed*~ the fifth installment in George Miller’s apocalypse epic, FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA and… we found it completely unnecessary. We know that movies about women are not by default inherently feminist (Anita tweeted about this specifically related to Fury Road back in 2015), but it’s always a bummer when we’re more invested in the male characters in a movie centered around a female protagonist. Then, we played another round of our “What’s Wrong With You?” guessing game, this time with a Pride Month theme (of sorts).Fury Road tweets: https://x.com/femfreq/status/600778563202129920Find Kat:- twitter.com/kat_ex_machina- letterboxd.com/katexmachinaFind AC:- instagram.com/aclamberty - letterboxd.com/aclambertyFind Us:- Join our Patreon: patreon.com/femfreq- NEW: Letterboxd: letterboxd.com/femfreq- Our Website: feministfrequency.com- Subscribe to FFR on Apple Podcasts: apple.co/2t4wu4I- Twitter: twitter.com/femfreq- Instagram: instagram.com/femfreq
SECONDS | FFR 253 Feminist Frequency 2024-06-12 | Who’s in the mood for a little June Gloom? We finally watched John Frankenheimer’s 1966 film SECONDS, starring Rock Hudson, in a feature segment we’re calling “Retro Featurism.” Kat and A.C. wonder what its Frankenstein-esque plotline in which viewers could find gay or trans messaging, says about the current moment where stories like POOR THINGS and SEVERANCE (and Maggie Gyllenhaal’s upcoming THE BRIDE) are resonating with audiences. Plus, the return of our celebrity guessing game “What’s Wrong With Me?”!!!Discussed in this episode:- Fortnightly Freq-Out episode about the documentary ROCK HUDSON: ALL THAT HEAVEN ALLOWED: feministfrequency.com/video/ffr-presents-fortnightly-freq-outs-mini-ep-1-with-special-guest-a-c-lamberty- FFR “Machos: Fully Loaded” episode about mental health vis-a-vis masculinity in media: feministfrequency.com/video/machos-on-the-verge-of-a-nervous-breakdown-machos-fully-loaded-episode-4-ffr-229- The fascinating life story of “Bride of Frankenstein” Elsa Lanchester: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elsa_LanchesterNote: In this episode, Kat erroneously and incorrectly uses the term “plus sized” in description.

THE FALL GUY | FFR 252 Feminist Frequency 2024-06-05 | In this week’s episode, Kat holds court on the movie that seemed uniquely designed just for her (which she ultimately found fairly disappointing): THE FALL GUY. Directed by longtime stunt performer David Leitch and starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt, A.C. and Kat predominantly found the movie… “cute.” Which is fine! But Kat was really hoping for a lot more about the love of stunts, all things considered. Then, A.C. debuts a new, extremely unhinged game entitled “Nightmare Blunt Rotation,” and Kat has a lot to answer for.Find Kat:- twitter.com/kat_ex_machina- letterboxd.com/katexmachinaFind AC:- instagram.com/aclamberty - letterboxd.com/aclambertyFind Us:- Join our Patreon: patreon.com/femfreq- Our Website: feministfrequency.com- Subscribe to FFR on Apple Podcasts: apple.co/2t4wu4I- Twitter: twitter.com/femfreq- Instagram: instagram.com/femfreq- NEW: Letterboxd: letterboxd.com/femfreq
MONKEY MAN | FFR 251 Feminist Frequency 2024-05-31 | Join Kat and A.C. for a discussion of MONKEY MAN, the directorial debut of star Dev Patel. We talk about action movie tropes, what happens when actors get to make their first feature behind the camera, and the “internet boyfriend”-ification of British boys in the 2010s.

CHALLENGERS | FFR 250 Feminist Frequency 2024-05-16 | Join Kat and A.C. for a discussion of one of their most hotly anticipated movies of 2024, Luca Guadagnino’s CHALLENGERS starring Zendaya, Josh O’Connor, and Mike Faist. The FFR hosts were mixed on their reactions, but both saw opportunities where it could have ascended to greater heights than it ultimately did—in particular with the underwritten female character in the middle of the film’s central love triangle. While we love the craft accomplishments of this movie, we can’t help but wonder what Paul Verhoeven might have done with this story.Plus, we check in on this spring’s film festivals, from the recently debuted Los Angeles Festival of Movies presented by Mubi to the 77th annual festival in Cannes, which just kicked off.Discussed in this episode:- Los Angeles Festival of Movies: lafestivalofmovies.org- FFR "Cyberpunk Summer" episode on Strange Days w/ Emily St. James: feministfrequency.com/video/emily-st-james-explains-why-strange-days-is-kathryn-bigelows-best-movie-cyberpunk-summer-ep-9Find Kat:- twitter.com/kat_ex_machina- letterboxd.com/katexmachinaFind AC:- instagram.com/aclamberty - letterboxd.com/aclambertyFind Us:- Join our Patreon: patreon.com/femfreq- Our Website: feministfrequency.com- Subscribe to FFR on Apple Podcasts: apple.co/2t4wu4I- Twitter: twitter.com/femfreq- Instagram: instagram.com/femfreq- NEW: Letterboxd: letterboxd.com/femfreq
