Welcome everyone to the third episode! We are talking women as protagonists that don't have the kindest adjectives attached to their name when you hear about them in passing. The ones who get called crazy, nasty, rude, selfish, etc. - this one goes out to them! We are taking a look at:

Sick of Myself (2022)

and

Ingrid Goes West (2017)

We go over the cast and director, loves and dislikes, quotes, and who is the audience for these films!

I had to bring it up... the Bechdel Test. Who is she? Why do we keep using her as a test if movies are of quality? I chat a little bit about that and two movies that pass the Bechdel Test:

Short Term 12 (2013)

and

The Daytrippers (1997)

We go over the cast and director, loves and dislikes, quotes, and who is the audience for these films!

Films centered on lesbians and sapphics that have a happy ending are few and far between, which is why I wanted to highlight and recommend two to check out:

The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls in Love (1995)

and

Bound (1996)

We go over the cast and director, loves and dislikes, quotes, who is the audience for these films, and my favorite - the Donnie Thornberry Count.
