Kylie and Elliott talk about the movies they watched over Valentine's Day week while searching for better cinematic dads. Along the way, they discuss balancing queer joy with the reality of trauma, the problem of punch-down comedy, and the importance of a film's final scene. Also, more holiday slashers, please! And stop saying "meat and potatoes," Elliott!

This week’s movies are: Rafiki (2018), Tommy Boy (1995), My Bloody Valentine (1981), The Hunt (2012), Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000).
