It's time for the KILL JAMES BOND HALLOWEEN SPECIAL OOOooooOOOO(ghost noise). Two years ago, Devon picked Van Helsing. Last year, Abi picked Jennifer's Body. This year it falls to Alice to pick our non-struck spooktacular, and she's lovingly curated Audition, a film about a japanese misogynist making a series of extremely poor decisions.

Joining us this week is none other than Trinket, from the podcast 24 Bauer Party People!

URGENT APPEAL FOR AID FOR PALESTINE

SAG-AFTRA are still on strike and their donation links can be found in the description of the previous episode. However, right now there's only one link to provide. https://www.map.org.uk/donate/donate

What needs to happen in occupied Palestine cannot be accomplished with donations alone. The UN and entire international community must step in and hold Israel accountable for its ongoing genocide and relentless war crimes against the Palestinian people. Join a solidarity protest as soon as you can

some of the movie description sounded familiar, and like a movie I'd enjoy watching, so I was wondering why I hadn't. Then we got further into the episode and I remembered. 😨 Just hearing or reasing the description of those final scenes freaks me out, I can't imagine actually watching the damn thing

I recently read In The Miso Soup, which is a book written by the same author who wrote the novel Audition is adapted from. I watched Audition last night and there was some interesting overlap in themes and social commentary between Audition and Miso Soup. It's cool that Trinket mentioned dating services bc that and the sex trade at large play a major role in Miso Soup so obviously the author (Ryu Murakami) had a lot of thoughts to share about transactional relationships and the creepy power imbalances they create. It's an interesting book but I can only lightly recommend it bc it's verrrrrrry uncool and gross about women in a way that does not feel constructive towards any larger statement or purpose. Read at your own risk 😬
