Sex-Mas in July: "Mysterious Skin", "XX/XY", ThePoeticCritic", and "Young Adam"

from I Dig Crazy Flicks with CatBusRuss · host Cat Bus Russ

CatBusRuss really needs to focus on coming up with clever names for episodes. If he is pulling one from the original "Ninety For Chill: The Podcast" (available on the "I Dig Crazy Flicks" Patreon), going off the movie titles, he may forget what the conversations were about. Chatting about holiday cinema with ThePoeticCritic seems a bit off when it is placed between reviews for relationship/sex dramas.Or he needs to research the discontinued feed via his laptop instead of Apple Podcasts. Was this episode still going to feature reviews about the relationship/obsession problems that Mark Ruffalo endures in "XX/XY" and the Ewan McGregor relying solely on sex to survive the monotony of mid-century Scotland in "Young Adam"? Yes. But maybe he would have saved it for December. The laptop would have let him see the Holiday Sandwich portion of the title.Just consider Russ's decision to drop this #RewindWednesday release the result of his 23 years in customer service. He is a slave to the sales tactics. This is his Christmas in July.And with this being a holiday, he decided to treat himself by watching another feature from New Queer Cinema maestro Gregg Araki. There are still a few films for him to catch up on, and "Mysterious Skin" reminds him to be prepared for anything. Our host is beyond familiar with Araki's subversive tendencies, but he was caught off guard for a relatively grounded tale of embracing and suppressing trauma. In the end, it fits perfectly with the other two reviews, and the tale does conclude at Christmas.If the Christmas talk gets your mind thinking about treats, try a flavor from ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Doich! Snacking Dough. It is cookie dough with more protein, less sugar, and none of the eight major allergens. Our host is not a cookie fan, but this stuff taste great and leaves you feeling full quickly.
