Ep 48 - Last Night In Soho
Raquel decided to brave the night all alone, so this week we cover LAST NIGHT IN SOHO. Raphael loves it’s impressionistic giallo vibes – that this is Charlotte Sometimes but as a mod giallo. Raquel is confused by the last act, but loves the 60s music and fashion & is incredibly impressed by the production design. Raphael draws comparisons to both HARDCORE and LOOKING FOR MR. GOODBAR. So what is this movie actually about? Is it a warning about looking at the past uncritically? Is it a scare film about bad men? Both? Neither? We also continue to chip away Raquel’s reluctance to admitting she likes horror. The Generation Splice is film podcast where retired psychologist Dr. Raquel Martinez, a Baby Boomer through & through, & her son Raphael Jose Martinez, a cranky millennial punk rocker/film writer, discuss various films through the lens of their generation & personal experiences. Every week one host picks a movie to dissect & see if they can splice together the generation gap via their love of film. Feel free to write to us!
