215 - Beatriz at Dinner

On the eve of the return of The White Lotus, we’re taking a look at the Mike White oeuvre with returning guest Jorge Molina and 2017′s Beatriz at Dinner. Starring our beloved Salma Hayek as a holistic masseuse trapped at a toxic dinner party held by her wealthy clients, the film debuted at Sundance and was immediately viewed through the lens of our outrage and despair in the immediate aftermath of Trump’s election. The dark cringe comedy had a divisive finale but a brilliant ensemble including Connie Britton, John Lithgow, and Chloe Sevigny, with Hayek giving one of her finest performances. But the 2017 Best Actress race was highly competitive, and this summer release struggled to make an awards season comeback.

This episode, we talk about the Arteta/White partnership including White’s television output and Arteta as the quintessential journeyman director. Topics also include scrubbed John Early clips, our dreams for Hayek’s deserved awards future, and comparing Beatriz at Dinner to another 2017 film that succeeded with Oscar.

Topics also include the 2002 Best Actress nominees pitching grants, Mike White’s run on Survivor and The Amazing Race, and performing Salma in Snatch Game.

Chuck & Buck (2000, dir: Miguel Arteta)

Mike White wrote some of my favourites morally questionable LGBT characters in the TV and the protagonist of Chuck & Buck is a really close competition. A gay stalker obsessed with his aparently-now-straight childhood best friend looks like something from a Highsmith novel but White write he like such a charismatic loser character. Almost an ode to the queer coded vilains of the past that LGBT people learned to love, a beautiful homenage to the queer art of failure.

it's funny to be in fandom spaces with people that got their education on intimacy from completely opposite things than you did

i watched closer (2004, dir. mike nichols) and secretary (2002, dir. steven shainberg) and the good girl (2004, dir. miguel arteta) when i was in middle school and just absolutely did not imprint on harry potter it's just different for some of us....................
