162. 'Barbie' (2023)
Manage episode 373562878 series 2577667
A deep-dive into the semiotics of 'Barbie' and its post-feminist critique of corporate capitalism and American mores.
Just kidding, I went and saw 'Barbie' with five 12-year-olds. Six, if you count me.
But seriously, this episode unpacks some of the things I found interesting about the film, its very existence, its brilliant marketing and repositioning. Also: supporting cast wins and losses, why the filmmakers missed a perfect opportunity to put the idiotic 'Barbie Girl' song to great use, and a plea for an Allan spinoff.
