To Die For

from Fifteen Minute Film Fanatics · host Fifteen-Minute Film Fanatics

"What's the point of doing anything worthwhile if there's nobody watching?" So asks Suzanne Stone, the seductive embodiment of television in To Die For, Gus Van Sant's 1995 satire of celebrity culture and those who would do anything to reach the paradise of being on TV--or have a million followers on Instagram. In the Season 7 premiere, Mike and Dan talk about how well Nicole Kidman plays dumb--something rarely done well in movies--and how the film's oddest scene is one of genuine emotion. Sunset Blvd., The King of Comedy, and, of course, Network all enter the conversation. So stop watching Teens Speak Out and give this a listen!

Incredible bumper music by John Deley.
