Season 5, August “Funky Friday at Five with painter Alexandra Carter and the 2018 film, “Suspiria”

“One of the most persistent and embraced phenomenons in filmmaking in our current era is the love for resisting or rebooting many older popular genre films for contemporary purposes. In this episode I was most happy to revisit painter Alexandra Carter and discuss a film she picked: Luca Guadagnino's 2018 “Suspiria” possessing the same title and some influence from the Dario Argento 1977 classic. We could both agree that his film is a totally unique creature all of its own and, as always, I enjoyed doing the deepest dive with her.” Links to Alexandra's beautiful works: https://www.alexandra-carter.com/view/55405/1/0/7315772 #matriarchy #matrilineal #wicca #religion #ballet #dance #cult #witch #bodyhorror #italy #germany #socialism #redarmy #terrorism #tildaswinton #darianicolodi #darioargento #dakotajohnson #chloegracemoretz #jessicaharper #Lucaguadagnino #davidcronenberg #rabid #thebrood #oliverreed #samnthaeggar #1970s #2018 #baadermeinhof #eastgermany #westgermany #berlinwall #mercecunnungham #yvonnerainer #thomyorke #radiohead #jonnygreenwood #ptanderson #margotadler #choreography
