Whip It (15th Anniversary)


Listen Later

"You really need to stop shoving your psychotic idea of '50s womanhood down my throat."

15 years ago, Drew Barrymore and Elliot Page joined forces to deliver a fresh new take on the teenage girl's coming-of-age experience with WHIP IT. Not only did the film help introduce roller derby to the masses, but it proved there's more to girlhood than beauty pageants and pleasing Marcia Gay Harden. Pick out your derby name and get ready to jam, because The Wives Colangelo are ready to run the rink.
