Hillary WhiteGUEST
I thought, okay, like the new stuff.
Hillary WhiteGUEST
I thought like, well, the Nightingale, is it really horror? But it did come from a horror director and, um, it is exploring parts of horror, um, that, um, um, of the horror of being alive that are quite applicable to everyone.
Hillary WhiteGUEST
But as far as Australian horror, that's really gotten to me.
Hillary WhiteGUEST
What's been slotted as horror, what I'd recommend is Lake Mungo, which came out a long time ago.
Billy DeePANELIST
But sometimes I wonder at what cost the sexual assaults go on way too long and even happen multiple times to the point of questioning whether I'm watching a fetish film that will put me on some FBI wanted list.
Billy DeePANELIST
When I think of the female gaze, I think of all the amazing female directors that have produced some great films over the past 10 to 15 years, like Revenge and The Nightingale.
Billy DeePANELIST
But my favorite depiction of the female gaze is in Julia de Cornell's Titan.
Billy DeePANELIST
Early in the film, a camera is locked on Alexia's ass as she enters the car show and the camera sweeps around the room And when it lands back on her, she's looking right into the camera as if she's confronting you and letting you know she's going to take control of the narrative now, or in the very least become the aggressor.
Will TaylorHOST
Yeah, she was.
Will TaylorHOST
And she also did The Nightingale.
Will TaylorHOST
That's what it was.
Jared RuskHOST
Nightingale.
Chris KellyHOST
And that's why I was like, holy crap, this woman is going to be the biggest name in horror.
Chris KellyHOST
And then nothing after that, which did the Nightingale.
Chris KellyHOST
But anyways, so the police station, uh, the, when she's trying to report this thing that she's being harassed and the police officer looks at her like, Oh my God, it's this lady.
Chris KellyHOST
That's right.
