We discuss relational, emotional, social, and cultural questions that the 2022 film, Don’t Worry, Darling, provokes. Don’t forget to turn on those notifications so you don’t miss another thrilling episode of The Moving Pictures Podcast!
Oppenheimer: A History Lesson
If you want to hear the real, dramatized version of the first atomic bomb in the world, this is the movie for you— and so is this episode! I really loved diving into the U.S. history of this story and sharing it with you all, considering I am in my research girlie era after all :) Follow me on Instagram for more Oppenheimer content.
Slasher Classics: Scream VI
Who would’ve guessed that your host, Katie Holtzclaw, would greet Season 3 with this banger? Scream 6 was iconic and charming, witty and delicious, gory and violent, and wild. I dive deep into the history of slasher films and why Scream so iconically meets every Slasher criteria. Listen and learn, baby! And welcome back.
Season 3 Premiere Baby!
The season 3 premiere of The Moving Pictures Podcast is coming to you this summer… Get ready! It will be a great and lively discussion on a great, yet probably expected movie. Coming soon!
Last Night in Soho
As we start wrapping up Season 2 of The Moving Pictures Podcast, I wanted to discuss the new(ish) British psychological thriller Last Night in Soho to lead us into the ultimate horror film for next week’s episode. If you like psychological films, thrillers, or horror films, this is the movie for you! Check out this chaotic solo episode if you dare.
Mini Episode (with guests!)
Please welcome my guests, Nathan and Courtney Holtzclaw, to this impromptu mini interview episode! I had my brother and sister-in-law answer some questions and send me voice notes specifically for this episode which I’m calling a follow-up. As the resident Marvel fanatics in my circle of family and friends, I just couldn’t resist changing plans. Enjoy three Holtzclaw weirdos talking up a storm!
The Marvel Cinematic Universe
When I started this podcast, I vowed to never talk about a Marvel movie because I didn’t think I could cover all of it… but here I am, talking about the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe as a whole. This episode is unfiltered and almost completely unedited so enjoy my babbling! ;)
Episode 10: The Guilty
This week I felt like discussing a crime thriller/drama and I picked this (relatively) new one starring Jake Gyllenhaal. Listen to me drink some red wine and tell you all of my opinions as well as give a nice little history lesson.
Ready or Not, Here I come…
I haven’t talked about a horror movie in almost 10 episodes so I figured now was as good a time as any to bring some thrill into your lives with Ready or Not (2019). From the same directors who brought you Scream 5, Ready or Not dives into a scary social commentary while also bringing up all of your childhood fears of being chased. In my own words, “It’s really cool!”
Promising Young Woman (with guest)
This week is part 2 of discussing Promising Young Woman and boy, is this a good discussion. My guest and I analyze the seriousness of this social commentary and relate it back to our own lives. Trigger Warning for SA, abuse, and r*pe. Listener discretion is advised. This episode is not suitable for children.
Promising Young Woman (solo)
This week I decided to repurpose an episode I recorded last year and make it into two parts for easier listening. In this episode, it’ll be just me ;) but next week will be part 2 with a guest. Don’t worry, it’s just as good in 2022 as it was in 2021 and I promise, you’ll love every word. And if you haven’t seen this movie yet - run, don’t walk - and go watch it right now!
Trigger Warning: discussions of violence, rape, and sexual assault. This episode is not suitable for children.
Romantic Comedies: y2k Edition
Welcome back to another history lesson episode full of random facts about romantic comedies. Although it’s a short one this week, I had to talk about early 2000’s romantic comedies as a whole genre rather than discuss only one movie — I just couldn’t pick! Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and leave a review!
Mini: About Me (feat. Abbie)
Lots of you guys have been asking me questions about myself as your host and why I started this podcast. So here you go! A mini-episode dedicated to talking about myself and the movies/tv-shows I love the most. Enjoy this casual style recording via voice memos as I’m on vacation with my friend Abbie. Xo
Britney vs Spears: a #freebritney documentary
For my first ever documentary debut on this podcast, I decided to pick a story on the most iconic y2k pop star in, arguably, the world: Britney Spears! I discuss the documentary style, the people involved, and Britney’s career - obviously. I know it’s a long one but try to stick with me… It’s a good one.
Rebel Without A Cause / Bonnie & Clyde
This week I decided to talk about Hollywood Cinema in the 1950s and 1960s through the lens of two very infamous movies, Rebel Without A Cause (1955) and Bonnie and Clyde (1967). I give a lot of background information about the world at this time and fill you in on why these were such renowned films in their day and even still today. Enjoy a fun history lesson with me :)
I, Tonya (2017)
Episode 2 is live now wherever you get your podcasts! This week we are discussing the great American figure skater, Tonya Harding, and what led to her inevitable downfall. Enjoy me saying the word beautiful a million times, and enjoy the ASMR of me door-dashing pizza to my apartment!
