Persuasion + X

<p class="p1">This week, we were going to take a break from Summerween to talk solely about Netflix’s new Jane Austen adaptation, but instead we’re bringing you the weirdest crossover known to man. It turns out Ti West’s X and Carrie Cracknell’s Persuasion have quite a lot in common. Join Cam as he brings Maggie along for a bizarre ride while meditating on love, the passage of time, maternal absence, and the consequences of seizing – and not seizing – the day. Both of these films pay beautiful homage to the forebearers of their respective subgenres (Jane Austen period pieces + 70s slashers), yet still appeal to a distinctly modern audience. Stream both of these movies for a truly funky and thought-provoking double feature.</p> <p class="p1">Feedback & Theories: <a href= "mailto:secondbreakfastpod@gmail.com">secondbreakfastpod@gmail.com</a></p> <p class="p1">Instagram & TikTok: @secondbreakfastpod</p>
