It knows what scares you.
It's spooky time, and Kate and Brodie venture back to 1982 to recap Tobe Hooper's classic Poltergeist. We discuss the Spielberg "collaboration", Zelda Rubenstein's incredible performance and advocacy, the obsession with undies, and the reality behind the "curse".

We're both overseas at the moment so pulled this classic ep out of the archives!
This week, Kate and Brodie are digging into the source material, backstory, iconic moments and sexy highlighter costumes of the outcast classic: Romy and Michele's High School Reunion. Jinxy also coins a great new abbreev: et cet. There might not be Also Alsos this week, but don't worry, there's still plenty of further reading and ideas to Add To Cart – or at least Open in New Tab.
It's 1997 and Romy White and Michele Weinberger, best friends and fun cool party girls who live in Venice Beach, find out their 10 year high school reunion is coming up. As all the old, buried teenage insecurities re-emerge, Romy insists they need to improve themselves before coming face-to-face with their high school bullies, by getting more impressive jobs, finding boyfriends and SOMEHOW losing weight. Once they get closer to the event, they find themselves lying about their lives and losing one another for a few hours, before reuniting just in time to resolve all their high school trauma with (what else?) a dance scene.

Described as "Dead Poet's Society meets Clueless", The Hairy Bird is a 1998 film written and directed by Sarah Kernochan. Inspired by her time as a student at the Connecticut girls' boarding school Rosemary Hall in the 1960s, the film follows new student Odette Sinclair (Gaby Hoffman) as she meets the ICONIQUE headmistress Miss McVane (Lynn Redgrave) and falls in with a new clique led by Kirsten Dunst's Verena Von Stefan. No sooner is Odie welcomed in than their friend Tweetie (my girl Heather Matarazzo) overhears the school board's plans to merge Miss Godard's into a co-ed school with the nearby St Ambrose Academy.
This sets the films antics into motion, pits the boy crazy Tweetie and Tinka, an aspiring "actress-folk singer-slut", against Verena and brainiac Momo (our girl Merritt Wever) and eventually leads Odie to stage a sit-in to demand the girls at Miss Godard's have a voice in the future of their school.
Brodie is joined by her bff Anton De Ionno to discuss the sad saga behind this film's release, its legacy in our lives and many spiritual connections to Gilmore Girls.

On this week's See Also, Kate and Brodie are both prepping for some time away, plus Jinxy recaps the Melbourne premiere of Beetlejuice and BL describes a bizarro time seeing Blink Twice at Kino's "Cinema 8".
On the docket this week are chats about two very brilliant and very different films: Coralie Fargeat's The Substance (skip from 32:37 to 53:43 if you don't want spoilers) and Jane Schoenbrun's I Saw the TV Glow. We chat about how it's been a big year for chicks shooting up, finding a bit of flesh to poke an earring in, listening to what a film is saying – even if it's not speaking to you – and being simply a lesbian. Also: What was your Buffy journey and What Was The Name of Your High School Band? Is South Yarra the SoHo of Melbourne? Is asking that question totally insufferable?

They debrief on the movies they loved, the people they met and the iconic nistas of fashion they've been interviewing. Jinxy hosted an on-stage talk with Hollywood costume designer Deborah L. Scott and BL interviewed Charli XCX for the cover of Vogue Australia's September issue.
Then we discuss the recent investigation into the troubling "boys' club" at Swillhouse and the restaurant group's history of perpetuating harmful workplace practices, as reported in the Sydney Morning Herald.

It's the Trap by M Night Shyamalan podcast! Kate and Brodie have been to see English, a new play at MTC, a new RHONY teaser is out featuring the real-life gay friend of Jenna Lyons, Jinxy is having her "ball dropping down a la All Fours by Miranda July" birthday and is saving the article about Katherine Hepburn being an awful neighbour, she's celebrating in a very Kate Culture way – watching short films about architecture at a Robin Boyd-designed house, let us podcast from SUR LA MER in St Kilda!!!! Both of us are doom-prepping for a fortnight of film festival madness in the kitchen. Neither of us will bring a thermos of soup into the cinema but only one of us is making MUFF SOUP. BL has started following a new TikTok chef who's been cooking in Liz Lange's Hamptons house aka THE GREY GARDENS HOUSE. The kid from Presumed Innocent looks like the girl from Hereditary.
Then we recollect our night watching the first session of M Night Shyamalan's Trap at Thornbury Picture House. Incredible, amazing, loved every second. We won't spoil the end, but we do dig into the plot points, most of which are the setup and concept of the story, okay? We each shout out our Hayley Mills faves: Kate's is Whistle Down the Wind and Brodie's is The Parent Trap IV: Hawaiian Honeymoon. All the greats are here: Alison Pill! Kid Cudi! New nepo baby pop star (?) Saleka Shyamalan! And of course: Millennial Gay Root Josh Hartnett.

We're re-releasing our This Is My Life episode after our sold out screenings of the film in Melbourne earlier this week. (Thank you all for coming!) It's a real trip down memory line, taking us back to episode 20 of the pod, to 2022, to the coining of the term POODLE EPISODE!!
Here's what we wrote about it then:
This week, Kate and Brodie are talking about The Girls™️: Nora, Meg, Samantha and Gabby. It's our first Toy Poodle Episode (you'll see why) and it's all about Nora Ephron's 1992 directorial debut, This is My Life. There might not be Also Alsos this week, but don't worry, there's still plenty of further reading and ideas to Add To Cart – or at least Open in New Tab.
Starring Julie "literal Marge Simpson" Kavner as hopeful stand-up comic Dottie Ingils, and Samantha Mathis and Gabby Hoffman as her daughters Erica and Opel, This is My Life is about everything that matters: mums! daughters! sisters! ambition! Carrie Fisher!
Co-written by Nora and her sister Delia, the film was adapted from Meg Wolitzer's novel This is Your Life. As a special treat for us and you, Meg was kind enough to write in to See Also with her memories of having her book adapted by Nora.

She really said that.)

Also celebrating their birthdays this week are Sofia Coppola – who turned 53 on Tuesday – and her debut feature The Virgin Suicides, which came out 25 years ago. To mark two of these three occasions (guess which), Kate and Brodie go deep on the Lisbon sisters and the boys who loved them.
Even if you're seen the film a million times, it holds up to a re-watch – trust us.
We cover the Eugenides BTS cynicism, Hartnett at his prime, Trip's gay dad(s), the time Brodie met Kathleen Turner, memory's flimsy logic and the time Kate first tried Pepsi Max, the comedy Sofia never gets credit for and the image-making she's so skilled at, the boys who'll always remember and the girls who were never really theirs/there.

It was only a matter of time.
In this re-release of a classic Poodle episode, Kate and Brodie come together to discuss Girlfriends, Claudia Weill's directorial debut from 1978, and an absolutely perfect film. Co-written by Vicki Polon, it starts Melanie Mayron as Susan Weinblatt, who has a perfect face and spends her days shooting bar mitzvahs and waiting for her big, artistic break in late-'70s New York City. When her best friend and roommate, Anne (Anita Skinner), a writer, gets married and moves out of their apartment, Susan searches for ways to repair her loneliness. She meets Eric (a hunky young Christopher Guest), grows close to Rabbi Aaron Gold (Eli Wallach), brings home a hitchhiker named Ceil (Amy Wright) and tries to bridge the distance by spending time upstate with Anne and her husband, Martin (Bob Balaban). A film about friendship, making art and platonic love, Girlfriends is so much more than the sum of its parts and a tidy plot summary. Seek it out as soon as you can!

This week, Kate and Brodie are being so decadent, so silly, so Mary! They're going deep on Daisy Von Scherler Mayer's 1995 cult classic, Party Girl, a movie that follows Parker Posey as Mary, who would like a nice powerful mind-altering substance, preferably something that will make her unborn children grow gills, before learning the Dewey Decimal System. We get into designer vs vintage, Liev Schreiber's British accent (better or worse than Brodie's BE HONEST?!), building main characters from all the side characters in other films, meeting the party girls in our own lives, Sisyphus being totally famous, the truth of the film's cultural insensitivities, where has pashing on screen gone, being daffy, The "Lady" Bunny as Itself, getting sick of all the street fashion in London … all those hats, librarians getting silly on the dancefloor.

This week, Kate's been slipping back into her old Sydney life, talking Housewives with strangers and visiting Georgiana Houghton's 'Invisible Friends' show at AGNSW. Brodie snuck a novel into Boiler Room, is baffled by young people's bags and pours one out for Pitchfork, following the news it will be folded into GQ. Jinxy finally saw Wonka and it's fun to disagree on stuff!!!!!!!!!
Then, they chat about Palme D'or and Palme D'og winner Anatomy of a Fall, a fantastic new adult courtroom drama that makes the "who dun it?" the least important topic. They talk French court (psycho!), 50 Cent and Henry Thomas's audition tape for E.T.

It's here. It's finally our time to talk about Priscilla, the ninth film by Sofia Coppola. We discuss sitting inside the jewel box of Priscilla's life, and the film's window into her discomfiting dynamic with Elvis, Priscilla finally finding some agency when she preg, female horniness, how would Elvis say "Lydia Tar", Brodie does some red string between Elordi's Elvis and Austin Butler's Elvis and the real Elvis and Priscilla and the Kardashians (stick with it).
Then: we love our curvy wife, the book Sofia Coppola Archive 1999–2023. There's so much great stuff in it and we list our fave bits, then dream up all the other stuff it could've included.

This week, Kate and Brodie chat about being diagnosed with the Sunday Scaries tonsilitis, wearing a button-up to the club, Francis Ford Coppola being a proud uncle, Nicolas Cage getting that face moving in Dream Scenario, disappointing Bottoms, not Jo Koy. BL has to do a tight 10 on Mean Girls and then they both move on to the main event in Burn Book news: Monica on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City undoing all her goodwill in the first part of the reunion. (Skip from 17:00 – 37:00 if you're not an RHOSLC girl.) They discuss the brown leg holes of housewives' spray tans, Americans being bad at puns, the SLC Good Karma Network, Top Chef's empath tendencies and what do SLC Greeks make of Angie K?
Then they ski over to London for a chat about Poor Things, Jinx nayms'um (specifically her aesthetic bugbears where this movie is concerned), Bella Baxter is Jack in Francis Ford Coppola's Jack, the eventual baby is the trickiest part of Benjamin Button, the cycle of cruelty and abuse depicted in Poor Things, the feminist criticisms of it, and we hope the people on the nine-month cruise are getting this educated.
Next week we're covering Priscilla – finally!

It's our very special holiday Poodle episode! This week, Kate is joined by Chelsea Fairless, co-host of Every Outfit on SATC, for the now-annual lesbian Christmas episode. This year, they're discussing Clea Duvall's 2020 comedy (?) Happiest Season.
They discuss the wig, the chemistry (and lack thereof) between Harper (Mackenzie Davis) and Abby (KStew), the weirdly ill-timed family politics, is this queer canon?, the warm embrace of a gay bar compared to "Fratty's", Chelsea's flocked tree and does Kate hate weddings?

This week, Kate and Brodie are back from the movies and ready to debrief. Jinxy celebrated the opening of Lorne Cinema with a screening of Stop Making Sense, and Brodie loved Beyoncé's concert film, but why does everything need to be 3 hours long? Jinx is more of a Solange girl and one thing we can agree on is being absolutely chilled by Jonathan Glazer's The Zone of Interest. Our friend and card-carrying member of the Hogg Hive, Tam Zimet, dials in from a Q&A with mutha Joanna in Edinburgh, and got the scoop of Tilda's alibi for missing it. We decide we're not Girls on Top girls but we support the lowercase-G girls regardless. Then we visit the Michigan farm of Lara, the deeply normal protagonist of Ann Patchett's Tom Lake who had a very abnormal youth, as an actress and lover of an actor we think might actually have been based on Tom Hanks.
Next week: Jinxy is joined by Chelsea Fairless for the Happiest Season poodle episode. After that, we'll be on a holiday break – unless you're a subscriber. Sign up at patreon.com/SeeAlso to hear a couple of extra episodes over the holidays, otherwise we'll be back in the new year!

This week, Jinxy is back from India and ready to chat about a very slippery massage, being trapped in a sauna, seeing Priscilla, Real Housewives of Sydney's Biv-pigs and A Very Jewish Christmas Carol. BL is back from the recent indie sleaze past, had a religious experience seeing Tracey Emin this week and couldn't cope with the singing in a recent musical film.
Then it's time to talk about SALTBURN, director Emerald Fennell's latest movie that just didn't hit for us. We talk about the critical response, and Ms Fennel's response to it, Jacob Elordi bathwater (BL will buy a six-pack), the suspension of period sex disbelief and when referencing other works falls apart.

Get the sky out of the wardrobe because it's (almost) equinox time, babe. This week, Kate and Brodie dance over to the Markos Academy to talk about a pair of Poodles. First, Dario Argento's Suspiria, which Jinxy declares the best-looking film of all time. We talk about how weather is the fifth character, asking the witches "who are your guys?", Dario Argento is the Kris Jenner of Giallo film, Udo Keir hot??, starlet things!!!
Then we pop over to 2018 for Luca Guadagnino's remix of Suspiria. The dream sequences are very mirror, father, mirror, it's all *so* German, how it's similar to Eva Longoria's Flamin' Hot Cheetos movie, why Chloe Grace Moretz (like One Direction) will never be iconic, Paris Bar, don't order oysters in Berlin, Helena Markos's little hands, THEE Wall, Time Out Berlin says the Markos Academy is so hot, Tilda doing bits.

This week, Kate and Brodie recap the last few weeks of movies, meals and parties. Jinx went to see the girlbosses at SXSW Sydney, heard about Naomi Watts' menopause products, learned she's married to Billy Crudup and barely saw Nicole Kidman's ankles. She did not cook her own meat at Le Foote and visited Vermuteria, meanwhile BL remembers a fight she had with Siri in The Rocks and recounts a night at French Saloon. Together they went to celebrate Melbourne icon Beci Orpin's birthday, and reminisce about their prom looks – one of which was far more iconic than the other. Then, they recap the movies they've seen recently and discuss how JTFirstman makes fun of himself in Rotting in the Sun, You Hurt My Feelings is the film of the year, why can't everyone make movies like Far From Heaven, we both liked the kooky A Haunting in Venice, The Exorcist: The Believer is trash, remember the tiny sunglasses in My Best Friend's Wedding.

The morning after the after-party, we regrouped to hear about how Melbourne is better in every way (bar one) than Copenhagen, what Mauricio is up to when the cameras aren't rolling, and what's going on in butter trends right now. And we share some local intel with them, including the saga of Schapelle Corby, who gets to do TED Talks here, and how Evan Dando is connected to Sydney (and its women).

This week, Kate and Brodie do an impromptu Tight Ten on Fitzroy Pool: whether it has more literary (Helen Garner), musical (Courtney Barnett) or fragrance (Troye Sivan) associations. BL loves being someone's "all shapes and sizes" and Jinxy does a live-react to Tsu Lange Yor's "Pool" fragrance. Jinxy saw La Chimera again and you just gotta, BL is exploring the country for old men movies, they chat about The Row pre-fall 2024, Jenna Lyons staying at Chateau Voltaire, and the influence of Cass Bird's iconic flashing photo on RHONY.

THEN (it's a big one this week!) they dig into Celine Song's debut feature Past Lives, the early Skype / Facebook interfaces, the slippiness of time & memory, critiques of its sentimentality, and the heaving sobs as the lights come up.

This week's poodle episode sees the picture of teenage perfection obliterated by perversion. It's jawbreaker time, baby.
The meanest, coolest, hottest girls in Reagan High School play their annual birthday morning prank on their friend Liz Purr, but things go awry when Liz chokes to death on a Jawbreaker. Courtney (Rose McGowan) and her henchwomen Julie (Rebecca Gayheart) and Marcie (Julie Benz) do their best to cover their tracks, and implicating our queen Fern Mayo (Judy Greer) in the process. They transform her into Vylette (learn it, live it, love it) and fumble their way through a criminal investigation led by Judy's sister Pam Grier.
Kate and Brodie talk their very different relationships to the film, the "80s does 50s" style, fellating an icepop, Rose McGowan's feud against Can't Hardly Wait, the links to Do Revenge and The Donnas.

This week, Jinxy and BL have restaurants to complain about, don't get all "The Menu" and force a set menu on us, okay? Then, they discuss the two movies on everyone's lips: Mission Impossible and The Meg 2. JK!!!! It's time to talk about how Barbie and Oppenheimer are two movies about guys who love horses, and why it's important to have a man cave. We're being a bit of a Grinch being neg about Barbie being undercooked and overbaked, its horny kid erasure, remember Feral Cheryl, is Jinxy secretly a Ken?, normal woman dolls would sell well.
Oppenheimer turned BL into Leo pointing at TV meme recognising every man who popped up (also Olivis Thirlby, missed u girl!!), doing science in a nice little town, if you're a white male actor with some facial recognition and you weren't cast in this movie, you're a flop, Alden Ehrenreich playing JFK when, would we ever see this gender-flipped version of Women Talking again?

This week's poodle episode features our favourite returning guest, comedian, Queerstralia creator and Girlfriend of the Pod, Zoë Coombs Marr!
Zoë's here to talk about Jamie Babbit's painfully iconic 1999 directorial debut, But I'm a Cheerleader! We talk about the cast, finding 1920s porn while researching Australia's queer history, the name "Graham", who was in Go?, movies with Chocolate in the title, "nighttime scenes", doing Mulanie Lunskey doing an "Australian accent", Eddie Cibrian is hot, remember lipstick lesbians?, the deleted scene featuring Ione Skye, Brodie was a teen Christian, Zoë went to Hillsong drunk one time, and so much more! If you want to embrace physical media by revisiting this movie, buy the UK Blu-Ray, not the US version For our US listeners, here's the deleted scene with Ione Skye as Kelly, a cautionary tale!

It was only a matter of time.
In this Poodle episode (aka See Also's deep dives on the films we love most), Kate and Brodie come together to discuss Girlfriends, Claudia Weill's directorial debut from 1978, and an absolutely perfect film. Co-written by Vicki Polon, it starts Melanie Mayron as Susan Weinblatt, who has a perfect face and spends her days shooting bar mitzvahs and waiting for her big, artistic break in late-'70s New York City. When her best friend and roommate, Anne (Anita Skinner), a writer, gets married and moves out of their apartment, Susan searches for ways to repair her loneliness. She meets Eric (a hunky young Christopher Guest), grows close to Rabbi Aaron Gold (Eli Wallach), brings home a hitchhiker named Ceil (Amy Wright) and tries to bridge the distance by spending time upstate with Anne and her husband, Martin (Bob Balaban). A film about friendship, making art and platonic love, Girlfriends is so much more than the sum of its parts and a tidy plot summary. Seek it out as soon as you can!

It's a funky poodle this week!
Directed by Terry Zwigoff based on Dan Clowes’ beloved, cult graphic novel and co–written by Zwigoff and Clowes, GHOST WORLD is a window into the friendship between two teen girls Enid (Thora Birch) and Rebecca (Scarlett Johansson) – true outsiders – over the summer following their high school graduation as their allegiance first and foremost to each other starts to wain. These are the caustic, counterculture obsessed girls you either identify with, or you fear. They’re working out what to do next – Rebecca's got a clearer path than Enid, who's got to get through an excruciating remedial art class (taught by Illeana Douglas) in order to get her high school diploma. One day Enid and Rebecca prank a lonely guy behind a personal ad. Soon, hermetic record collector Seymour (Steve Buscemi), enters their cool, misanthropic world and unsettles their folie à deux friendship for good.

We're See Also and we don't put out!!
To welcome 2023, Kate and Brodie are returning to the source: the proto-feminist punk classic, Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains.
It's 1980 and a couple of punk bands roll into the steel town of Charlston, USA. In the audience are Corinne "Third Degree" Burns" (Diane Lane) and her sister Tracy (Marin Kantor), orphaned teens trying to make ends meet after their mum's death, and their cousin Jessica (Laura Dern). They yearn for a way out, for a way to better themselves. By the time the Metal Corpses and the Looters leave for their next tour, The Stains – the girls' band – has joined them as the support act. What happens next, the ignominious break-up of the Looters and the huge success of The Stains, was the feminist fantasy that, in real life, made the film a cult inspiration for the Riot Grrrl movement. Written by Nancy Dowd and directed by Lou Adler, Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains prove why every citizen should be given an electric guitar on her 16th birthday.

This week, See Also is feeling flung out of space. For a very special holiday Poodle, Kate is joined by Chelsea Fairless, co-host of Every Outfit on SATC, for a virtual glove-lunch. Together, they play 1950s and devolve into "dyke debauchery" while discussing our fave and yours: Carol. They cover the martinis and creamed spinach, Our Cate's voice and her period-inappropriate manicure. Also: Alsos!
Based on crime novelist Patricia Highsmith’s "The Price of Salt", Carol (2015) is a contemporary – and somewhat unlikely – Christmas classic from director Todd Haynes and screenwriter Phyllis Nagy, who deftly nails the spirit of the original text. That spirit is the tingling, electric air between Carol (Cate Blanchett), a married woman with a small child, and Therese (Rooney Mara) a young amateur photographer moonlighting as a department store Christmas casual. Their paths cross one morning in the toy department, a glance makes way for some light shopping chit-chat, and the seed is sewn, a glove left on the counter, and there it is – an opportunity for a second meeting, and a cross-country road trip, against all odds (which include Carol’s estranged husband Herge, a gun and a looming custody battle).

This week, Jinxy is back from India with a story about the beautiful, secret performance she received there. BL is back from a music festival and got the names of both big music moments wrong (it was Slow by Kylie and Once in a Lifetime by Talking Heads lol). They catch up on the White Lotus season 2 finale – if you're still somehow avoiding spoilers, skip from the music cue to 44:50. After that, Brodie debriefs Kate on the TV adaptation of Taffy Brodesser-Akner's novel, Fleischman is in Trouble, which is in trouble for being a bad show. Also: Alsos!

It's 1997 and Romy White and Michele Weinberger, best friends and fun cool party girls who live in Venice Beach, find out their 10 year high school reunion is coming up. As all the old, buried teenage insecurities re-emerge, Romy insists they need to improve themselves before coming face-to-face with their high school bullies, by getting more impressive jobs, finding boyfriends and SOMEHOW losing weight. Once they get closer to the event, they find themselves lying about their lives and losing one another for a few hours, before reuniting just in time to resolve all their high school trauma with (what else?) a dance scene.

This week, Kate and Brodie are absolute pissy bitches. We're blaming the moon for our problems, and the only solution is to talk about all the TV we've been watching lately, okay?
Then, we dig into the state of rom-coms. Covering contemporary ones that fuck with the genre, past ones we might've missed and some bright spots in the genre.
