Sorry this one is late! But this is a great episode, and I think it's worth the wait ;) In the final installment of THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE series on Agnes Varda, Carter and I discuss her 1985 film, VAGABOND. In this episode, we talk about Anarchism and freedom, and how the definition of freedom can vary depending on the person. We also delve into the topic of homelessness, and how Los Angeles and Orange County have a huge housing crisis that makes it difficult for anyone to stay housed, Disneyland's stranglehold on the city of Anaheim, and how its workers are still unhoused despite working at their parks, and this country's fascination with trying to make being homeless illegal vs. actually building homes for those in need.We give our final thoughts on Agnes Varda's filmography as we close out on another year of August is for Auteurs month.Carter Moon's Writings:https://merrygoroundmagazine.com/author/carter/Support Me:linktr.ee/FromMyLipsPod

In the penultimate episode of the Agnes Varda series, THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE, Carter and I discuss her 1977 film, ONE SINGS, THE OTHER DOESN'T. In this episode, we talk about abortion, Agnes' personal history with having an illegal abortion and being one of the 343 women who signed The Manifesto of the 343, which would pave the way for the legalization of abortion in France in 1975. We go over the history of France and abortion along with how the male gaze and female friendships are tackled in this film.Abortion Funds:https://www.yellowhammerfund.org/https://abortionfunds.org/need-abortion/Carter Moon's Writings:https://merrygoroundmagazine.com/author/carter/Support Me:linktr.ee/FromMyLipsPod
In the second installment of the Agnes Varda series, THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE, Carter and I discuss Agnes's 1968 documentary, THE BLACK PANTHERS. The documentary hones in on a Free Huey rally held in Oakland after Huey Newton was arrested for being accused of killing a cop. We dive into the history of the Black Panthers, how Agnes's point of view pulls the curtain back on the Black Panthers and disputes what the media has portrayed them to be, how other Hollywood films have covered the Black Panthers history, and how many Leftist organizations have been heavily inspired by the Black Panthers.Books Referenced in the episode:Black Against Empire by Waldo E.

For the first installment of the Agnes Varda series, THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE, me and Carter discuss the film, CLEO FROM 5 TO 7. We talk about the French New Wave movement and Auteur Theory, and how Agnes Varda was the godmother of the French New Wave despite rarely receiving credit for kickstarting a genre that would influence many prolific film directors years later. We also cover how often women are dismissed for having feelings other than happiness, the reality of dealing with death and failing health, the hyperfemininity presented in this film among a sea of male film directors, and why men hate Astrology and anything having to deal with another world.Support Me:linktr.ee/FromMyLipsPodCarter's Writings in Merry Go Round Magazine:https://merrygoroundmagazine.com/author/carter/
SURPRISE! I have an episode and it's on the 1995 cult film, SHOWGIRLS. I talk with Tony Boswell from Minion Death Cult about the film and how great it is along with elements of labor, bosses, what is considered exploitative work, sex workers, and how the film's resurgence in popularity is due to Millennials' apprecitiation for satire.Support Me:https://linktr.ee/FromMyLipsPodMinion Death Cult Podcast: https://miniondeathcult.libsyn.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/wordisbond?lang=enInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/wordisbondtv/Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/wordisbond
