Be our guest as Tessa and Tricia discuss the SFL struggle illustrated in Tangerine, starring Kitana Kiki Rodriguez (aka Sin-Dee Rella), and the live action remake of Beauty and the Beast, starring Emma Watson. They explore the parallels found in both stories and the SFL power moves of Sin-Dee Rella and Belle, as well as chat about "real fish" and the elaborate eyeliner parties of the Disney one percent. They argue about whether it's the Beast's fault that he can't get a date and Tessa's empathy for the Beast and his property results in a diagnosis from Hilary. Also, Tricia shares her past trauma involving a Gaston look-alike. You're welcome.

This week, Tessa and Tricia dive into the utter insanity of Valerian, starring Cara Delevingne, and the 90s hole that is Chasing Amy, starring Joey Lauren Adams and a very R&B Ben Affleck. They discuss whether the lead characters can be considered SFLs all while exploring the existence of cum guns and a Molly-induced World's Fair. The merit of Chasing Amy as a progressive film of its time is hotly debated, but the sexiness of a DARE cop in little shorts is something they can all agree on. Tricia raps and Tessa insists on hearing from you if you enjoy either of these movies in the slightest bit. Snoochie Boochies.

Tessa and Tricia chat about the SFLs of the heartfelt "abobo" rom-com, Obvious Child, starring Jenny Slate, and the "1989 Tour de Force," Teen Witch, starring Blake Lively's older sister.
