22: From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler - Jessie Losch Sep 14, 2022

Show notes

The dynamite Jessie Losch (https://twitter.com/JessieLosch) is here to guide me through one of her favorite childhood books– one I'd never read before and maybe got more magic out of as an adult than I know I would have as a child.

I make a few references to Charlotte's Web, but I decided to hold off on that ep until next week. Rest assured, it is coming in due time!

21: Bridge to Terebithia - Michelle Athy Sep 08, 2022

Show notes

KidLit September begins with this essential episode. And you know what's coming. But the full extent of it? Michelle Athy (https://twitter.com/PrpleMichelle) and I are here to dig into the text of one of the most moving and beautiful books on American poverty, gender norms, politics, and death we've ever read. I'll go out on a limb to say that it should be taught alongside Steinbeck in high school. It's that important to our understanding of American life.

20 : The Da Vinci Code - OWWR's Hannah and Laura Aug 31, 2022

Show notes

Listen. I know it's dumb. I know it's not true. I know it's legitimately bad. But I LOVE the Langdon-verse movies, with poor Tom Hanks huffing and puffing his way through historical European cities trying to salvage the reputation of the Roman Catholic Church. Thank God Hannah and Laura from OWWR are here to talk to me about the sheer inanity of these films.

19: Mrs. Doubtfire - Philip Ellis Aug 24, 2022

Show notes

CW: Divorce, some transphobia

I have to admit, I had no idea this famous Robin Williams movie was based on a UK children's book. I'm trilled I got the chance to re-watch it (for the first time in many years!), and chat with Philip Ellis (@Philip_Ellis) about it!

16: The Death and Life of Bobby Z - Derik of Ratchet Book Club Aug 03, 2022

Show notes

CW: Rape, sexual language, Paul Walker's alleged crimes, racism/hate speech

Listen. We know this isn't literature. But there is something truly sublime about ripping into a movie based on a book you love. Especially when the terribleness of the movie helps you realize that maybe the book wasn't great to begin with. Derik of Ratchet Book Club is here to help us resuscitate THE DEATH AND LIFE OF BOBBY Z.

Keep in touch with Derik: https://linktr.ee/sscast

A portion of our Patreon proceeds from July + August will be given to Abortion Access Funds highlighted on https://donations4abortion.com, as requested by Derik.

13: Congo - TV's Travis Jul 13, 2022

Show notes

Join your host Emily J. Edwards and Travis Crawford (aka, TV's Travis) to discuss a movie based on novelist Michael Crichton's famous novel of terrifying creatures-- CONGO. It's all sorts of colonialist nightmare, plus sci-fi horror, and so many wonderful moments of Tim Curry swaggering in khaki.

12: Breakfast at Tiffany's (film) - Jody DiPerna Jul 06, 2022

Show notes

Jody DiPerna (@JodyDiPerna) is back for our first installment of our Summer Movie Series, this time talking about Truman Capote's brilliant novella of the same name becoming a film with Audrey Hepburn. And it's super racist and really weird!
