About this episode

The episode discusses the film Secretary and its contrasts with Fifty Shades of Grey.

This film is distressingly difficult to find, which makes it even more disappointing that the low-rent streaming services on which it is available advertise it wholly on the back of Fifty Shades of Grey. Secretary and Fifty Shades share a few superficial traits—most strikingly the name "Mr. Grey"—but spiritually you could scarcely find two more different works. For one, Secretary is really good.
