836 - Beyond the Valley of the Dolls (1970)

You’d think we’d spend this episode reflecting thoughtfully about the degree of influence Carrie Nation had on the America female suffrage and temperance movements, but we mostly end up focusing on mundane stuff like drugs, trans representation, murder, Shakespeare, midnight movies, and shocking behind-the-scenes dalliances. This is probably due to the influence of our delightful guest: Peaches Christ. If you’d like to watch ahead for next week’s film, we will be discussing and reviewing Edward Yang’s Yi Yi (2000).
