About this episode
Get ready for a world of wet because we're continuing our month of erotic thrillers with a look at the Wachowski sisters' 1996 ovinal queer classic Bound ! Tagging in for the conversation is the founder of Salem Horror Fest: Kay Lynch! Join us as we kick things off with a brief discussion on the differences between noir and neo-noir before going all in on the casting drama that nearly cost us Jennifer Tilly! Then it's all (and we mean all ) fair game as we analyze this masterpiece of queer cinema. Plus: plenty of frank sexual conversations, femme tops, threatened masculinity, overhead shots galore, and all the praise for Jennifer Tilly and Gina Gershon's lead performances. And remember: Don't force the snake. Slow and easy does it. References: > Kelly Kessler. “Bound Together.” Film Quarterly (Summer 2003) > Drew Burnett Gregory. “Bound” Is a Trans Classic.
