The Whole Shebang Minute 97: The Words For The Day Are Primal and Diagetic
In Minute 97 of The Whole Shebang, Mike and Jenny hope you like “Gimme Danger,” because you’re about to get a hell of a lot of it, first tackling the lyrics and whether they’re about heroin or a relationship and what that means for Curt, the S&M elements within “Gimme Danger” and glam in general, what happens when you go to a gig and the singer starts writhing on the stage and you can’t see them, the audience’s reaction to Curt including Pearl’s appreciation and Arthur’s raw sensual appeal, Arthur’s transference of his fandom (and sexual attraction) to Curt, a little on Iggy Pop’s late ‘70s output and its influence on punk and goth, Todd Haynes’ decision to use only music from 1974 and previous in the movie, and Jenny’s joyful discovery of the word “diagetic.”
