Episode 17: Trouble Every Day


Listen Later

This week! Claire Denis' Trouble Every Day. From wiki: "Shane and June Brown are an American couple honeymooning in Paris in an effort to nurture their new life together, a life complicated by Shane's mysterious and frequent visits to a medical clinic where cutting edge studies of the human libido are undertaken. When Shane seeks out a self-exiled expert in the field, he happens upon the doctor's wife, another victim of the same malady. She has become so dangerous and emotionally paralyzed by the condition that her husband imprisons her by day in their home. It is Shane's chance encounter with this woman that triggers an event so cataclysmic and shocking it might just lead him to rediscover the tranquility he seeks to restore for himself and his new bride."

But first!

The ghost of Paul Lynde and the greatness of Bye Bye Birdie. the Haunting of Drusilla and ghosts traveling through mirrors, Drusilla watched Chilly Scenes of Winter. Josh watched Birdemic: Shock and Terror and Possession from 1981.

Then they get into the feature, Claire Denis' Trouble Every Day. Content warning: this film contains sexual assault and stars Vincent Gallo. Drusilla isn't the biggest fan of Denis' work or this movie while Josh likes it a little more. They discuss the complicated legacy of Vincent Gallo who was once very cool (Buffalo 66! Brown Bunny! was in a band with Jean-Michele Basquiat!) and became very much not that. Dru loves Beatrice Dalle. Josh was marked by the 90s and that sucks. Johnny Rotten sucks now, too. They discuss the plot and whether or not the movie is sexy. Josh thinks Vincent Gallo is a good actor, but Dru compares him to Joe Dallesandro. Vincent Gallo doesn't understand his lines? They discuss the aesthetics and music of the film. Things shot on digital video are kind of blech. They like the Tindersticks song, though. There are a few cliche art film scenes in this. Josh compares this to Daughters of Darkness, Dru compares it to Comfort of Strangers. They debate the way the film presents bodies and sex and also the way vampires work in this. They compare it to Cronenberg's Crash as well but Crash is a bottom and this is a top. Also, the fucking COMIC SANS OF IT ALL!!! Then they play Have They Seen It?

Next week the duo is watching Alex Garland's Men
