About this episode
The episode discusses the film Amélie and its themes of relationships and personal growth with guest Liz Gotauco.
"You mean she would rather imagine herself relating to an absent person than build relationships with those around her?" If you were a quirky film girlie in the 2000s, chances are, you resonated very deeply with a young French woman named Amélie. This week, The Wives Colangelo are joined by the brilliant Liz Gotauco to discuss the aestheticization of twentysomethings' coming of age, fixating on fixing other people's problems to ignore your own, and falling in love through photobooth slides. -------- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom -------- MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT Equality Ohio: https://www.equalityohio.org -------- Follow our Guest!
