**THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS**On this episode of Film is Lit, we sink our claws into the 2023 thriller/horror/dark comedy "Cat Person," based on Kristen Roupenian's viral 2017 short story from The New Yorker. Starring the singing sensation from "CODA" (Emilia Jones) and everyone's favorite awkward giant from "Succession" (Nicholas Braun), "Cat Person" explores the murky gray areas of dating, power dynamics, and the stories we tell ourselves when red flags come waving. We break down whether this adaptation carries the same biting, uncanny commentary as the original story - or whether it stretches itself too thin by going full feature when maybe, just maybe, a short film would've sufficed. Is it a sharp look at modern dating, or just another mis-cat-culation (I'm sorry)?

Flat-World Fiction: Digital Humanity in Early Twenty-First-Century America (University of Georgia Press, 2021) Dr. Liliana Naydan analyses representations of digital technology and the social and ethical concerns it creates in mainstream literary American fiction and fiction written about the United States in the first two decades of the twenty-first century. In this period, authors such as Don DeLillo, Jennifer Egan, Dave Eggers, Joshua Ferris, Jonathan Safran Foer, Mohsin Hamid, Thomas Pynchon, Kristen Roupenian, Gary Shteyngart, and Zadie Smith found themselves not only implicated in the developing digital world of flat screens but also threatened by it, while simultaneously attempting to critique it. As a result, their texts explore how human relationships with digital devices and media transform human identity and human relationships with one another, history, divinity, capitalism, and nationality. Dr. Naydan walks us through these complex relationships, revealing how authors show through their fiction that technology is political. In the process, these authors complement and expand on work by historians, philosophers, and social scientists, creating accessible, literary road maps to our digital future. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

On this episode of Paid in Puke, we analyze Susanna Fogel's 2023 thriller, Cat Person based on the 2017 short by Kristen Roupenian, and adapted for the screen by Michelle Ashford, who was the showrunner for Masters of Sex, but most importantly, wrote the teleplay to the abortion episode of 21 Jump Street. The film stars Emilia Jones, Geraldine Viswanathan, Hope Davis, Isabella Rossellini, and Nicholas Braun. We all had very different feelings about this film, both from our initial watch together in the theater, and after our analytical watches for the pod. Journey with us as we discuss how heavy-handed a metaphor we can tolerate; why Fogel might have tried a bit too hard to cater to a male audience, at the film's expense; the surprisingly problematic element of the source material; and how Nicholas Braun perfected towing the line between awkward and creepy. Plus: Did Harrison Ford ruin a generation of men?

The first deals with divorce, the second with getting scammed. A flabbergasted Damir can't believe they were published; he wonders if anyone outside New York would care to read them. Christine finds ironic wisdom buried in both essays. The conversation ends on a high note, with Christine explaining how one of the essays breaks new ground in the media monoculture.

This month, we delve into the unsettling evolution of 'incel' philosophy with Dr. Filipa Melo Lopes, a respected lecturer of Sociology and Political Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh. Filipa grew up in Portugal and received her B.A. from Simon Fraser University, in Canada.She completed her PhD at the University of Michigan and joined the University of Edinburgh as a lecturer in 2019. Filipa's areas of research include feminist philosophy, social theory, sexual ethics and the work of French philosopher, Simone de Beauvoir. 'Incel', short for 'involuntary celibate', refers to an online subculture of predominantly men, who desire a romantic or sexual female partner but claim to be unable to find one. Their vitriolic language in online forums has fuelled a series of violent acts against women in recent years, including the 2014 shooting carried out by Elliott Rodger in Isla Vista, California.In this episode, we chat with Filipa about how she came to study incel ideology and what fascinates her about its portrayal of modern masculinity. We explore Filipa's in-depth analysis of Elliot Rodger's misogynistic manifesto, Kristen Roupenian's sensational piece Cat Person, modern misogyny and how lives in digital spaces, critical compassion for ‘difficult' groups, processes of ‘othering', victimisation and male fragility, and more!References: My Twisted World: The Story of Elliot Rodger'Half victim, half accomplice' : Cat Person and Narcissism (2021)Incel violence and Beauvoirian otherness (2023)Cat Person -Kristen Roupenian (2017)The Second Sex- Simone de BeauvoirFilipa Melo Lopes' Website

Is he the man he actually appears to be? Or, is there something nefarious at play?This tension builds to a masterfully staged sex scene between Margot and Robert which presents the action of consent playing out.In the following interview with Susanna Fogel, she talks about the grey area of tension that exists within Cat Person, as well as the journey of adapting the text to the screen.Cat Person launches in Australian cinemas on November 23.

Returning to the pod is director Susanna Fogel to talk to Anna Smith about her riveting new feature Cat Person starring the brilliant Emilia Jones, best known for her lead role in Oscar-winning film CODA. Emilia plays Margot - a young, single, and seemingly self-possessed woman who meets Robert, played by Succession's Nicholas Braun. The film, inspired by Kristen Roupenian's viral New Yorker short story of the same name, explores issues around dating and consent as we follow Margot in her fledgling relationship with Robert.

Anna and Ellen delve into the representation and perspectives of both Margot and Robert, but also Margot's mother Kelly (Hope Davis) and Margot's lecturer and mentor played by Isabella Rossellini.

It's based on a viral short story from the New Yorker in 2017, and six years later, it's as relevant as ever. We got to chat with director Susanna Fogel about the grey area of dating that most of us can relate to, how she was able to direct one of the more uncomfortable sex scenes we've ever seen, and her secret trick to cast bonding.

Slasher films are one of the staples of the horror film genre. And the latest movie, BODIES BODIES BODIES (2022), adds some hip and new things to the subgenre that may point directly to Generation Z and their ilk. Starring a lot of up-and-comers and including Pete Davidson, the movie is the latest from the distributor A24 known for such classics as FIRST REFORMED (2018) and MIDSOMMAR (2019). Anytime is a great time for a house party. When a group of friends decide to have a “hurricane” party to wait out a storm, host David (Pete Davidson) invites a group of friends over to party it up. When they decide to play the murder-in-the-dark game Bodies Bodies Bodies, one of them is brutally murdered resulting in the rest becoming suspicious of the rest. Soon the body count rises and the party-goers have to make decisions that will determine if they live or die. The film was written by Sarah DeLappe from a story by Kristen Roupenian. The script was brought to film by director Halina Reijn and stars Amandla Stenberg, Maria Bakalova, along with breakout star Rachel Sennott. Receiving very positive critical responses, the movie may have already become a cult classic. Listen to your co-hosts while live-in-person in Mystic, Connecticut discuss this latest slasher film.

In this mini-episode, we revisit Cat Person, Kristen Roupenian's 2017 short story for The New Yorker. As it turns out, the characters in Celeste Ng's books aren't the only ones who don't know how to communicate. Tune in to hear Theresa advocate more violence-by-women and rail against the patriarchy that trains us not to be loud and proud about our opinions, wants, and needs. Meanwhile, Rebecca maintains a level head while reconsidering her response to the initial reading of this story. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/midlit/support
In this episode, Nilüfer talks with Kristen Roupenian about writing a dissertation without fear and without silencing your voice. Everyone who pursues a Ph.D. knows the challenges that come with writing, but Kristen offers a refreshing take on the process. She reminds all of us that instead of writing to the imagined hostile audience, we should picture ourselves writing to someone who is willing to meet us halfway. Hearing this interview gave me a feeling of relief; I wish someone would have given me this advice years ago. She also taught us that if you find the writing process excruciating, then perhaps you can find another way, a more enjoyable way to write. If you are working on a dissertation, or any form of writing, you don't want to miss this interview! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/just-as-it-sounds/support

This episode of Season 5 of the BSP Podcast features Filipa Melo Lopes, from the Philosophy Department of the University of Edinburgh. The presentation is taken from our 2020 annual conference: ‘Engaged Phenomenology’ Online. ABSTRACT: At the end of 2017, Kristen Roupenian’s short story, Cat Person, went viral. Published at the height of the #MeToo movement, it depicted a ‘toxic date’ and a disturbing sexual encounter between Margot, a college student, and Robert, an older man she meets at work. The story was widely viewed as a relatable denunciation of women’s powerlessness and routine victimization. In this paper, I push against this common reading. I suggest that it fails to capture the disturbing and ‘skin-crawling’ quality of the story because it fails to engage with its rich phenomenological description. I propose an alternative feminist interpretation of Cat Person through the lens of Simone de Beauvoir’s notion of narcissism. For Beauvoir, narcissism is a particular form of alienation that consists in making oneself both the subject and the ultimate project of one’s life. Framing Margot as a modern-day narcissist casts her as engaging, not in subtly coerced, undesired sex, but rather in sex that is desired in a tragically alienated way. I argue that Beauvoir’s notion of narcissism is an important tool for feminists today –well beyond the interpretation of Cat Person. It presses us to see systematic subordination not just as something done to women, but also as something women do to themselves. This in turn highlights the neglected role of self-transformation as a key aspect of feminist political resistance. BIO: Filipa Melo Lopes is a Lecturer in Social and Political Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh. She completed her Ph.D. in Philosophy, in 2019, at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Her research interests include Social Theory, Feminist Philosophy, Philosophy of Disability and Philosophy of Sexuality. This recording is taken from the BSP Annual Conference 2020 Online: 'Engaged Phenomenology'. Organised with the University of Exeter and sponsored by Egenis and the Wellcome Centre for Cultures and Environments of Health.

Die Kurzgeschichte "Cat Person" machte Kristen Roupenian schlagartig berühmt. Die Geschichte wurde auf der Internetseite vom Magazin "The New Yorker" veröffentlicht, über zwei Millionen Mal geteilt und gilt als eine der meistdiskutierten Texte der letzten Jahre. Nun erscheint mit "Milkwishes" ein neuer Band mit Erzählungen. Es sind moderne und melancholische Schauergeschichten über Tod und Verlust.

En algún momento ¿alguien les ha revelado los pensamientos de algunos hombres?, cómo si fuera psicoanalista. Es como si la autora supiera cosas de la mente humana, que pensamos aprender en la vida misma y no fue así. Un libro muy divertido, memorable, perverso, feminista, salvaje y visceral. Difícil de detenerse al llegar al fin del primer cuento y enlazandote a los demás, con la premisa que viene del título y nos invita a leer uno más, pues "lo estás deseando". --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/libroclaroscuro/message
Kristen Roupenian wurde 2017 auf einen Schlag bekannt: Die Kurzgeschichte "Cat Person" wurde zur viralen Sensation. Darin geht es um einen Mann, der nicht akzeptiert, dass eine Frau kein Interesse mehr an ihm hat. Sie hat noch Sex mit ihm, weiß aber nicht, wie sie aus der Nummer wieder herauskommt.
Kristen Roupenian joins Deborah Treisman to read and discuss “Afternoon in Linen,” by Shirley Jackson, which appeared in a 1943 issue of the magazine. Roupenian’s début story collection, “You Know You Want This,” was published last year, and was just released in paperback under the title “Cat Person and Other Stories.”
Kristen Roupenian came to prominence with the publication of her story ‘Cat Person' in the New Yorker magazine back in 2017. Having caused quite a storm it is described as the first short story to go viral. Editor of Ladybeard magazine Madeleine Dunnigan caught up with the author down the line in the US.
My discussion of "Cat Person," by Kristen Roupenian. The story offers a subtle, nuanced look at power, eroticism, and the confusion that often results when a man and a woman try (and fail) to understand each other, taking us inside the heads of people who share physical space -- but are miles apart.

In this episode, we discuss “Cat Person” by Kristen Roupenian. Is it okay to ignore the advice to “show, don’t tell”? Why does this story succeed when it “tells” so much, and what lessons can we take from that success? How does a character’s shifting motivation propel a story? How does a story about two […]

Di quando Giulia e Marianna hanno preso uno dei più clamorosi casi editoriali degli ultimi anni e ne hanno parlato diffusamente. «Cat Person» di Kristen Roupenian, una raccolta di racconti che ha creato scompiglio nel mondo editoriale, ci sarà piaciuta? Per saperlo non dovete fare altro che ascoltare la puntata... Avvertenze: il nome dell’autrice è stato pronunciato più volte in modo fantasioso e probabilmente errato. Il prodotto non contiene (purtroppo) gatti.
