Late Bloomers feat. Lindsay Lee Wallace
Added 2022-06-19 02:13:02 +0000 UTCWriter Lindsay Lee Wallace returns to discuss the underseen 1996 queer romantic comedy 'Late Bloomers'. It's a sweet lesbian love story about coming of age in middle age in a small Texas town.
We discuss the film's many subversions within its narratively conventional mode (including the casting of its two leading women), the film's insistence on the celebratory elements of queerness, and the ways in which many of the film's antagonizing voices remain frustratingly prescient.
Later, we return to two topics near and dear to Lindsay - labor issues in the film industry and the 'Scream' franchise.
