This week: two psychodramas about the world of sex work, each
demented in distinct directions. Astrid discusses the subtext of
Crimes of Passion while Sean is somehow still talking about irish
television. Then we discover that Guilty Of Romance has much better
politics than you'd expect from something one could plausibly
describe as "a timid housewife's wild plunge into the world of
sexwork...and murder!"
Crimes of Passion - 1984 - Ken Russell
Guilty Of Romance - 2011 - Sion Sono
