The 3 movies
Show notes
Spooky season means spooky special episode! For the first (but probably not the last) time, Manuela got her sister Elena to come on the show to discuss her specialty: serial killer movies. Elena, also a film critic, explains how horror film performances are truly worthy of more analysis, and how the serial killer genre is a particularly fun place whereon can find actors pushing their boundaries and challenging the spectators' sense of morality. To illustrate, the sisters discuss Peter Lorre's moving turn in Fritz Lang's 1931 film M, Anthony Perkins' career-making work in Alfred Hitchcock's classic 1960 film PSYCHO, and Matt Dillon's hilarious and disturbing acting in Lars von Trier's 2018 masterpiece THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT. Happy (and safe) Halloween!
