HCP 13: Sexism in Silence of the Lambs


Listen Later

On our thirteenth episode: Hannah, Dan, and Tessa celebrate Hannah's birthday by watching Silence of the Lambs! They discuss the male gaze, sexism, the theme of transformation, and the serial killers that inspired Hannibal Lecter and Buffalo Bill. Oh, and they enjoyed a nice glass of Chianti (no human liver or fava beans, sorry.)
