This episode epitomizes our approach to discussing films. We're not about nitpicking what a movie gets "right" from source material, but rather we unpack how such differences reflect our current culture & selves. Thanks @hypatiaheuresis.bsky.social for the talk and @realgdt.bsky.social for the film!
Chug your milk, don your ruffled shirts and get ready to shoot lightning bolts through your lymphatic system as we re-animate Guillermo del Toro' latest creature-feature: Frankenstein! Returning to play god with us is Dr. Marina Escolano-Poveda (@hypatiaheuresis.bsky.social)!
We love talking to @hypatiaheuresis.bsky.social! So much so that we have another convo with her dropping in December:)

"The beginnings of hieroglyphic writing date back to the birth of ancient Egypt. It was in this period that a series of figurative signs first appeared, mostly depicting animals."
