Due to copyright, I had to re-edit our episode on "Cléo from 5 to 7." It's only a minute and seven seconds shorter but the link I published earlier doesn't work. Here is the new version. With @toadpuppy.bsky.social #AgnesVarda #FemaleFilmmakers

I had so much fun doing this. Thank you for suggesting such a great movie and doing a great job hosting the discussion. @lukehigginson.bsky.social is a treasure and both episodes we did with him are among my favorites.
This was a lot of fun and @lukehigginson.bsky.social is fast becoming one of my favorite guests.

Capping off our month long look at women directors with #AgnesVarda was a bit of a cheat. This isn't a "woman's film" anymore than Joyce Carol Oates or Virginia Woolf are women's literature. It's a classic in its own right. We did it anyway. Enjoy! W/ @toadpuppy.bsky.social

Our latest episode. Lina Wertmüller's "Seven Beauties" vs The Feminist Film Critics. Why were so many male film critics so impressed with the first woman to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Director and so many feminist ones left cold? With @toadpuppy.bsky.social

"Be yourself. If that doesn't work, be Robert Redford. Women love him."
