33. A Conversation With Richard Shepard
Things are looking a little different around here this week! Rebecca's out, so Maggie borrowed her Girlies for McGann co-host Katie to interview Richards Shepard, director of The Linguini Incident, which is getting a special 4K Blu-ray release from Diabolik DVD this summer. Listen on for discussions about David Bowie, indie filmmaking, and why Shepard wanted to bring his screwball comedy back to life this year.

Just two girls and their arbitrary system for ranking romantic comedies against the world. Does It Get the Pass? examines romantic comedies throughout the ages to determine, as the title says, whether they get "the pass' — i.e., avoid fulfilling a certain number of stereotypes — and what that means for our understanding of romance as a genre. All in good fun, hosts Maggie and Rebecca seek to pick apart the genre they love the most with humor and heart, and decide just what makes a good rom-com, whether it gets the pass or not.
