It's the gift that keeps on giving. Perfectly iconic and campy. And when you're finish, you can check out Bill Hader and Fred Armisen's hilarious parody :)))
Just wrapped up this hilarious little gem on HBO Max. It’s only two seasons which is a bummer but I’m already itching for a re watch. It’s funny, witty, musical, set in New York City, and not to mention the songs are not only genuinely hilarious but also pay loving homage to the artist/genres they are parodying. There’s references to David Bowie, Pet Shop Boys, Prince, and much more. Like you can tell they put a lot of effort and care into creating these silly songs, that you will no doubt find yourself bopping and singing along too un ironically. Give it a watch I’m sure you’ll be thoroughly entertained.
my profound attachment to this movie is probably something i should unpack with a therapist... nonetheless, it is absolutely nasty, creepy, and reminiscent of all the aspects of girlhood i struggled with the most. u should definitely check it out :)
exploitative? maybe. But i think that's a risk with any portrayal of a vulnerable subject. imo Donny's storytelling was careful yet incisive. I think it centered more-so around his own acquiescence, at times even explicit encouragement, and self-realization. As for Fiona Harvey's interview, the casting and acting was def on point...
