"Straight Men Explain Elle to Me" (w/ Joe Cilio & Alex Ramsey)

The ninth part in a series about the films of Paul Verhoeven and David Fincher. Elle is a film about power dynamics, the way men treat women, sexual desire, violation -- and it presents different ways of thinking about trauma. After seeing this film, Jessa really wanted to know what other people thought of it -- and by "other people," she really means straight men. So for this episode, she invites two straight men, Joe Cilio & Alex Ramsey, onto the show to discuss what they thought Elle was about.SUBSCRIBE to the #PublicIntellectual #Patreon page to access bonus content, merch, and more:https://www.patreon.com/publicintellectualPLEASE SUBSCRIBE AND RATE US on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, Stitcher, or wherever you get your podcasts.
