Welcome everyone to a very special episode. This week marks the 50th episode of the podcast if you can believe it! We wanted to save something special for you all on this monumental achievement for us, and trust us we didn’t let you down. This week, keep the dramamine handy and if you have epilepsy or are triggered by any sort of sexual violence whatsoever, seriously don’t watch this film. We head into the bowels of hell as depicted by a gay night club in Gaspar Noe’s 2002 Rape Revenge-told-in-reverse film, “Irreversible”. Whether it’s the nauseating soundtrack, the frenetic camera work, or the infamous 9-minute rape scene, this movie is truly an assault in every way shape and form. Join us as we dive deep into the psychological toll a movie like this has on a viewer and the impact it has by almost leaving it’s audience not as mere spectators to violence, but complicit in it as well. Also discussed on the episode are the rampant bouts of homophobia from the films lead character, and just in the film itself, the beauty that is Monica Belluci, and whose films are you recommending to your parents next, Gaspar Noe or Lars Von Trier? This and more on the 50th episode of “I Didn’t Need to See That!”
