70 - Thank Heaven For Little Girls (but Don't Thank These Movies)

You're minding your own business, watching classic movies, movies that won Best Picture at the Oscars, and then you stop, and think...does this film glamourise child prostitution?!

Nick and Contrarah take a look at three classic films from yesteryear examining them through a 2021 lens. They are well-made and were financially and critically successful, but the plots and focus on social convention displayed are WILD!

Get to know Gigi, Fanny, Iris and Betsy with us.
