The ninth part in a series about the films of Paul Verhoeven and David Fincher. Elle is a film about power dynamics, the way men treat women, sexual desire, violation -- and it presents different ways of thinking about trauma. So for this episode, she invites two straight men, Joe Cilio & Alex Ramsey, onto the show to discuss what they thought Elle was about.
