Zoolander: The Positive Masculinity of Derek Zoolander
Join me as I delve into the comedic world of Zoolander, Ben Stiller's iconic film about male models. In this episode of "Explaining the Joke," I explores the film's journey from a modest box office success to a cult classic beloved for its absurdity and memorable quotes.
With a critical lens, the episode examines the controversies surrounding the film, including its ban in Malaysia and the sensitive timing of its release. I also reflect on the film's surprising depth, highlighting its portrayal of masculinity and emotional intelligence, while acknowledging aspects that haven't aged well over the years.
Discover why Zoolander still holds a special place in the comedy genre, and join I for a thoughtful discussion on whether the film's humor stands the test of time. Tune in for a nostalgic journey and a fresh perspective on this early 2000s classic.
