Bang, bang! Joan Crawford shoots a whole town down in Nicholas Ray's 1954 cult/camp/queer/western/melodrama classic Johnny Guitar. It's Joshua's choice for the first episode in the Queer Classics program, celebrating our favorite queer-leaning films made before 1960.
Before they figure out if its Cahiers du Cinéma stamp-of-approval is appropriate or not, he, Andrew, and new co-host Katharine Coldiron discuss Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, The Bikeriders: A Midwest Accent Saga, I Saw the TV Glow: A Take-Up Brawl Saga, In Our Day: A Hong Sang-soo Saga. Lastly, it's all creamy keyboards and new and old Star Wars for One More Thing.
Up next, Andrew picks Jean Cocteau's classic waking dream Orpheus. Until then, please share, subscribe, and review!
