Episode 126: Promising Young Woman

*** WARNING: This episode contains discussion of topics which some people may find distressing ***

Episode 126 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell continue to cover movies of any year, any genre and any quality.

This episode, your hosts return to the work of writer/director Emerald Fennell. They had plenty to say about Saltburn, so it was inevitable that they would want to discuss Emerald's debut feature PROMISING YOUNG WOMAN! It's a revenge movie which takes a very different tack, but does it work?

Hayley and Darren talk savvy casting, soundtrack picks, aesthetic choices, *that* twist in the plot, a number of alternate endings which did not come to pass and much, much more. Darren also gets to mention "Ms. 45", which he attempts to do as often as possible in otherwise normal conversations.

Our angel of the podcast is Mitch Bain, who writes and performs the tunes you hear within. You can find him on social media: @whoelsebutmitch on Twitter, evertheoptimitch on Instagram.
