For the last episode of 2023, Madeline, Julian and Emilio continue exploring the theme of "Perceptions of Sanity" with an episode category called "Mise-Unseen", where they  discuss a movie they've all just now seen for the first time.  That movie is Todd Haynes' 1995 release 'Safe', a film as devoid of holiday cheer as it is of clear-cut interpretations, but a fascinating film to watch now, or any time for that matter.  How present or convincing is the feminist messaging?  Is Greg the husband unlikeable and selfish, aloof, or a character we are meant to sympathize with?  What is Carol's ultimate fate?  The trio deep dives into several of the directions that this movie allows you to go.    Thanks so much for finding us this year!  If you like what you've heard, please consider following us and writing us a positive review on your platform of choice.  Happy holidays, and we'll see you again in 2024 on January 10th!
