2002 - Morvern Callar

Movie of the Year: 2002Morvern Callar
Is Morvern Callar too obvious a choice to become 2002 Movie of the Year?Stop any yahoo on the street and ask them to bleat out a movie from 2002 and the first one that is going to spring into 90% of their brains is Morvern Callar. MorvernMania was everywhere is 2002, and if you don't remember that, don't let on because it's deeply strange and it might indicate that you are secretly a weirdo.In this episode we really get into what makes the titular Movern tick, probably more than any other episode we have done (so far). Why does she make the choices she makes, and what are we to think of her behavior? Probably it's fine, to be honest. You gotta let women hack up the bodies they're gonna hack up. If they have to explain every little thing to you, none of the parts of this body are going to get buried in the woods.And how about director-writer Lynne Ramsay? We discuss what she brings to this meticulously paced experience. Also, we look at how the movie tackles issues of class, gender, and truth. That's just one segment where we tackle those, and I promise, they stay tackled by the time we're done.All this AND the stuff that I forgot to mention!Visit our websiteUse our Amazon page!Join our Patreon team!

Everyone should have the freedom to decide what’s best for themselves and their families, including when it comes to ending a pregnancy. This decision has dire consequences for individual health and safety, and could have harsh repercussions for other landmark decisions.Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health and independence of all Americans. Even if you live in a state where abortion rights are upheld, access to safe medical procedures shouldn’t be determined by location, and it shouldn’t be the privilege of a small few.You can help by donating to local abortion funds.
