"Am I Okay" on HBO Max: A Queer Journey That Connects With Every Millenial (Including Our Hosts)

The Legendary Ladies Podcast

This week, the Legendary Ladies watch "Am I Okay?", starring Dakota Johnson, which has finally made its way onto HBO Max, despite having made the film circuits back in 2022. The first film in a while that has won over all three hosts, Amy, Kat, and Morgan chat about what makes this film so relatable. While at its surface level, it sells as 'just' a story about a queer coming out journey, the movie brings to light a number of the challenges and stories that Millenials face. It's a movie about the crisis of feeling "stuck" in your early thirties, about the trauma of a deep friendship breakup, and how success looks different for everyone. The film goes a step further and brings a clearly personal, and deeply affecting, story about discovering your sexuality later in life to create a movie that our hosts would watch again and again.
