Femme On

Femme on Film is back! In this new episode, Ria, her Femme on co-hosts Alyson and Tonya and brand new guests Suzan Aiken and Wendy Wimmer discuss Joe Wright's 2005 Pride and Prejudice starring Keira Knightley, Matthew Macfadyen and Rosamund Pike. They discuss how this film has obsessed generations of film lovers, the hand flex (obviously) and how each actor bring their roles alive.

This conversation was inspired by Ria and Alyson's chat about said hand flex in Alyson's show, Fine Cut. Listen to the hand flex episode https://www.femmeon.show/episodes/fine-cut-with-alyson-ria-carrogan

Alyson and L.L. (Lisa) Kirchner (award-winning screenwriter and author. Her next book, Blissful Thinking: A Memoir of Overcoming the Wellness Revolution, will be out with Motina Books in late September, 2023.) discuss the “Why You Should Look Forward to Menopause Scene” from Fleabag (Season 2, Episode 3) directed and starring Phoebe Waller-Bridge as Fleabag and Kristin Scott-Thomas as Belinda. Alyson and L.L.  talk about how far reaching the scene is and what a joy it is to watch these two actors sink their teeth into a substantive conversation about topics that consume our daily lives; pain, power, hormones and flirting to name a few. And yes, they can’t stop talking about how masterful the whole run of Fleabag is and how it might just be time for a rewatch. Come and listen and watch some Fleabag, go ahead, you won’t regret either.

Alyson and Ingrid talk about her book, Believing Me: Healing from Narcissistic Abuse and Complex Trauma and her journey on social media and how finding herself reflected in Instagram accounts helped her find her own voice and a way to talk about complex trauma in bite size pieces that are accessible to people from diverse backgrounds. They also talk about how Ingrid’s social media integrates all the different sides of her personality, silly, serious, childlike and professional.
