FFR 269: The Kids Are All Right

from Feminist Frequency Radio · host Feminist Frequency

For the first episode of our "Focus on the Family" season, we're taking it back to 2010—a time before Prop 8 when a Sundance movie could really make a big impact on the widespread film landscape. Lisa Cholodenko's The Kids Are All Right is a great example of a specific early 21st-century portrayal of queer families with a "coastal elite" filter, and how it straddled the line between caricature and accuracy.Discussed in this episode:Patti Harrison's Annette Bening impersonationFocus on the Family's "Plugged In" reviewFind Kat:letterboxd.com/katexmachinabsky.app/profile/katexmachina.bsky.socialtwitter.com/kat_ex_machinaFind A.C.:letterboxd.com/aclambertyinstagram.com/aclambertyFind Us:Join our PatreonOur WebsiteSubscribe to FFR on Apple PodcastsTwitterInstagramLetterboxdNEW: bsky.app/profile/femfreq.bsky.social
