Now Screaming: MAY DECEMBER

The betht movie of 2023? Maybe.Noah and Eliza revisit Todd Haynes’ recent drama(???) May December, which got caught up in critical claptrap surrounding the term “camp”. Julianne Moore and Natalie Portman star as a predatory housewife and the wanky actress cast to play her in a new film. With Moore’s ‘may/december’ marriage under a microscope, everyone’s darkest impulses and delusions sprawl out in the luscious tradition of midcentury feel-bad melodrama.Is this vicious, heartbreaking movie meant to be funny? Why did Charles Melton miss out on a fricken Oscar nom? All these questions and many more come broiling to the surface of the first ever Now Screaming episode, focusing on the new and recent releases that get the Midnight Screening team thinkin.SHOW NOTES: - Eliza's piece on May December !New episodes every Monday!
