POP ART SAYS: A METHOD TO THEIR MADNESS– Episode 114, May December/A Dream of Passion.

 

I am slowly getting the latest episodes of Pop Art up. There are reasons I am behind, but hopefully I will get back to normal soon.

 

“I don’t think we have enough hot dogs”. For these two films, I and The Vern of Cinema Recall,  had a great time discussing two films in which actors, in order to help them create the characters they are working on, seek out either the person the film is based on (the Mary Kay Letourneau case for May December) or someone that resembles the role they are playing (a woman who murdered her children ala Medea for A Dream of Passion). 

 

We especially had a great discussion on such topics as the trope of a male teen having sex with an older woman and the different way that is treated when it comes to female and gay teens; whether either actor really achieved their goal; and some talk about camp and kitsch. So, join us for this great discussion.

 

I highly recommend checking out The Vern’s various blogs and vlogs, especially Cinema Recall at https://www.cinemarecall.net/
