Fats on Film

IT Chapter 1 (2017) & 2 (2019) with Becci Sayce

You'll float too! You'll float too! Is that a promise?


Film Journalist Becci Sayce joins me to discuss the fat representation in IT Chapter 1 & 2 - mainly the characters of Ben and Eddie's mum. We talk about how resourceful and intelligent young Ben is while being overlook and patronised by his peers and how the larger body of Eddie's mum is to convey images of monstrosity and an overbearing presence onto the audience.


We make reference to an article by Virgie Tovar in Ravishly which you can find here - well worth the read!
