Listen Later

We're joined today by Alice and Kim from Fetch the Smelling Salts (@fetchsmellingsalts) to discuss the first part of the 1995 adaptation of Persuasion starring Amanda Root and Ciarán Hinds. Today's episode covers the film through the moment the back of Wentworth's head is introduced.


Topics discussed include stinky Bath water, hats and bangs, pineapples as a symbol of wealth, our desire for flashbacks, crop burning, puppies, and sibling-in-law relationships.


Glossary of People, Places, and Things: The Holiday, Stockard Channing, Grease, Practical Magic, Caroline from New Girl, Cabaret
