Episode 74: Gaze Into My Eyes
If you ever wanted a lesson in not dismissing a film based on it's plot summary, look no further than Coralie Fargeat's, Revenge. Dawn and Jen gleefully take you though this expertly crafted, symbol-laden, stunningly beautiful example of their least favorite cinematic trope: the rape/revenge flick.
So, warning: discussion of sexual assault and the treatment of survivors is all over this podcast.
If you're interested in watching the movie after listening to this podcast, but want to skip the assault, we present the timecodes for the wary:
Awkward/threatening convo between Stan and Jen starts: 14:44
Stan walks in on Jen and makes the situation more hostile at: 16:47
Assault begins at: 20:00
Richard returns post-assault and tries to cover it up at: 22:50
Jen goes off the cliff at: 27:41
