In this episode we get "cerebral" (whatever that means) and talk about Robert Eggers' The Lighthouse (2019), starring Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson. It's a complicated movie that has steered us toward a complicated (yet ridiculous) discussion. We talk about gender, the monstrous-feminine, the abject, and eco-criticism, as well as our crushes on Willem Dafoe and our delight in his character's dialogue. Oh, and Charlie can't let go of thinking this is a pirate movie. It isn't.
Also, big news: We have an email address AND transcripts! Feel free to get in touch and/or get a transcript at [email protected]. Also, we'd love for you to rate, review, and subscribe to our little show because we love attention.
