Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)

In this episode, Charlyn & Mark review and then ramble about Birds of Prey, which you should definitely check out while it’s still in theatres (not a sponsor)—do your part to combat sexist narratives about female-fronted films in the movie industry! We get into what we think this film has to say about the female experience, masculinity as neocolonial, badass choreography, and the best breakfast sandwich.
