Episode 26 - Fucking Åmål (1998)
Manage episode 393020007 series 3443381
It’s a fractious episode for Queer Girl Film Club this week, be prepared for disagreements, personal attacks and shouting over Fucking Åmål/Show Me Love (1998), a big hit in Sweden which isn’t such a big hit for some of the pod.
Listen as the gang talk telephone etiquette, kissing girls as a dare and whether naturalistic film-making is good or not. We take this gritty lo-fi depiction of slightly shitty teens struggling in a small town apart, and find that Holly is a much more forgiving person than Alice and G. Is it a happy ending or a depressing ending (and are we talking about the film or the episode here?!)?
CN: Discussion of self harm (42:50-47:50), swearing, spoilers.
