The Slapstick Episode: Bugonia, Frankenstein, Pluribus, Is This Thing On? & Sunscreen in Movies

from WE BOUGHT A MIC · host WBAM Studios

We’re getting sunny with special guest Ben Nemeroff to talk about sunscreen representation in film and television, and his new skincare brand, Slapstick Sunscreen. From 'Castaway' to 'Dune' to 'Passion of the Christ,' we ask: who could’ve used a little SPF 30? Plus, we give you some thoughts on Bradley Cooper’s “Is This Thing On”, Guillermo del Toro’s “Frankenstein”, and Vince Gilligan’s “Pluribus,” which might be the show of the year. We also talk about Yorgos Lanthimos’s “Bugonia”, Black Mirror, and Nobody Wants This.Visit https://tryslapstick.comTimecodesIntro - 0:00Is This Thing On - 2:00Frankenstein - 15:05Him - 22:27Nobody Wants This - 25:29Black Mirror - 36:08Pluribus - 39:28Bugonia - 48:52What is Slapstick? - 57:30Sunscreen representation in film and television - 1:11:07
