Summertime Sadness

Amy Boland Season 1 Episode 4

Summer has come and gone and RR is marking the occasion by watching the saddest/angstiest summer movies we could think of. If you want to round out your bummer summer, this is the episode for you. Amy & G talk about everything from Now & Then (1995), your quintessential girlie-coming-of-age-summer-movie, to La Cienega (2001), a swampy sweaty and feverish Argentinian tale. This episode also breaks down some summertime classics like The Graduate (1967) and Contempt (1963).
