We saw so many great movies directed by women at TIFF21 that we couldn't fit them all into one episode! Reporting post-festival, we get into Jane Campion's The Power of the Dog, Mia Hansen-Løve's Bergman Island, Betsy West & Julie Cohen's Julia, and Justine Bateman's Violet. Meanwhile, if you've been wondering about the return of FONDAVISION, we're back on October 13 with the comedy classic 9 to 5. We also want to say THANK YOU to everyone who came out to Wayne's World, our first screening back at the Revue Cinema. Our next IRL event is on October 27 & we're showing the essential Jennifer's Body. If you're in Toronto, you can get tickets here: https://bit.ly/2ZI1RlHSee you then, friends!

Barbara Ann O'Leary invites the world to fall madly in love with films #DirectedbyWomen. Barbara galvanizes awareness and celebration of women film directors by actively weaving global community through social media interaction, a communal blogging initiative, interviews, filmmaker directory, and an annual worldwide film viewing party. Crucial 21st Century Cinema #DirectedbyWomen communal blogging initiative that is running all year. Film lovers are invited to contribute a short blog post (365 words or less) about one 21st century film, TV episode, etc. directed by a woman or women that they find crucial. Everyone's invited to share their perspectives. #DirectedbyWomen Global Directory: 12,678 women directors... and counting! There are MANY more women directors than most people are aware of. I invite people to turn their attention to exploring, sharing, and celebrating work by women directors. www.directedbywomen.com https://twitter.com/DirectedbyWomen https://www.facebook.com/directedbywomen https://www.instagram.com/directedbywomen    

For this year’s Halloween episode, we’re digging up a forgotten favourite! Yes, it’s time to revive the conversation around director Mary Lambert and her grossly (emphasis on the GROSS!) underrated 1989 adaptation of Stephen King’s Pet Sematary. Follow us to the forests of Ludlow, Maine as we unearth our true feelings about the 2019 remake and the ways in which it (im)pales in comparison to Mary’s revolting and revolutionary take. We also mourn the loss of Mary’s original concept for Pet Sematary II (which would have followed Ellie Creed!) and wonder whether the Fun and Fucked Up horror film is dead, or just buried under a pile of “elevated” yet uninteresting spins on the genre. We Really Like Her! is produced by Emily Gagne and Danita Steinberg, edited by Danita Steinberg, with a theme song by Emily Milling.

We sat down with actor Raffey Cassidy, director Malgorzata Szumowska, and writer Catherine S. McMullen to talk about their incredible film 'The Other Lamb' which celebrated its World Premiere at TIFF19. We got the scoop on Jeffrey the ram (!!!), location scouting in Ireland, adapting a short story for the screen, and the joys of collaborating with women.

We’re, like, freaking out because Hollywood Suite archival producer and film programmer Alicia Fletcher is with us this week to talk about Martha Coolidge and her bitchin’ 1983 flick VALLEY GIRL! Listen in as we flip right out over this California-set riff on Romeo and Juliet, including its seriously cute cast (Deborah Foreman + Nic Cage 4 ever!), rad soundtrack (we melt for “I Melt with You”!), and totally tubular costumes. Why is this literally perfect movie not talked about as much as John Hughes’s entire (and, honestly, grody on reflection) filmography? The patriarchy can “Fuck off, fer sure! Like, totally!” We Really Like Her! is produced by Danita Steinberg and Emily Gagne, edited by Danita Steinberg, with a theme song by Emily Milling.

Lace up your fave sneakers and put on your best jumpsuit because Emily and Danita are back with a sneak preview of Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut, BOOKSMART! Listen up as they geek out over this new comedy that follows nerdy BFFs Amy (Kaitlyn Dever) and Molly (Beanie Feldstein) as they attempt to get their party on for the first time the night before their high school graduation. Does this so-called SUPERBAD of the 2010s really make the grade in terms of its portrayal of teenage friendship, sexual inexperience and being “uncool”? Or is it, much like high school, way overhyped?
