From the Cows in the Field podcast, we're joined by the Khoo's to reassess Whit Stillman's 2011 comeback Damsels in Distress. We discuss Stillman's career as a whole, how auteurs depict contemporary America during the 2010s and how well the movie has aged since its TIFF and Venice premieres --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/exitingthroughthe2010s/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/exitingthroughthe2010s/support

Damsels in Distress with Justin Khoo and Laura Khoo

On this bonus, quasi-sports themed, Oscars-affiliated episode of Cinematic Underdogs, I (Paul Keelan) join Laura and Justin Khoo of the always superb Cows in the Field podcast to discuss the philosophical leaps of faith and pratfalls in 2020's "Another Round."  This is a hybrid release, and is also available on any platform streaming Cows in the Field.  Now, for those familiar with "Another Round," I know what you are thinking: what on earth does self-experimenting with life by examining the effects of living under the influence of a steady buzz have to do with sports? The answer: nothing, directly at least.  However, "Another Round" definitely delves into many tropes of sports films. It is a tale of for men who find friendship, camaraderie, and reinvention by joining together on a unique adventure. It is a tale that taps into Norwegian drinking culture, which is apparently filled with competitive rituals like binge drinking during relay races. It is a tale that taps into jazz ballet dance. And it is also a tale in which one of our four main character's is the school's soccer coach, and whose arc largely revolves around the emergent confidence of a previously timorous boy named Specs (a subplot that might sound familiar for anyone who loves kids' based 90's sports classics like "Little Giants" and "The Big Green" as much as we do). Most importantly, "Another Round" forces us to question how we relate to our lives and what risks we are willing to take to feel alive again. Questioning the thresholds and limitations of our physical endurance, and the sacrifices we make in terms of sabotaging our bodily health for psychological / hormonal benefits, it is neatly aligned to many sports themes that we've become acquainted with already. Anyways, all of these arguments, while fun to conjure up, are nevertheless kind of a stretch. The real reason why "Another Round" is on here is it is an awesome conversation that deserves as many listeners as it can hypothetically reach. So, if you've stumbled upon it, put your preconceptions of Cinematic Underdogs aside for an episode and enjoy!
