On the 335th episode of Piecing It Together, Megan Kearns from Spoilerpiece Theater joins me to talk about The Royal Hotel. Kitty Green's follow-up to The Assitant is another excellent feminist film that also draws inspiration from some tense genre movies. Puzzle pieces include Hotel Coolgarie, Green Room, Support The Girls and It Comes At Night.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for The Royal Hotel and any of the movies we discuss!

Written by Kitty Green
