I Can't Believe You Haven't Seen...
Ever had a conversation with someone about a movie you love that they haven't seen, causing you to say "I can't believe you haven't seen that!" Jess and Matt have...in fact, it's happened throughout their entire relationship!
Join them as they have conversations about what the new viewer thought about different aspects of each movie they watch, touching on everything from themes and cultural perspectives to the filmmaking and characters in front of the camera. They may even discover some new favourites...or question the sanity of the other person's choices.

I Can't Believe You Haven't Seen...
Episode #023 - Orlando
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Orlando is a film that has grown in stature and gained a greater audience since it was released in 1992. Jess loves it, and has seen it many times dating back to her university days. Matt had not seen it, much to Jess' astonishment as she felt like it would be right up his alley. So she kept it for this episode where he could discover Orlando as a young man. Also as a young woman. Look, it's a long story and there's not really even much of an explanation. Just go with it, everyone else does.
They will get the chance to talk about the role of androgyny in both the film's themes and casting choices, primitive ice skating, a wide variety of parallels and dichotomies the film uses, and how to properly break the fourth wall. Hopefully, by the end of this episode, you won't need to take a seven day long nap. Orlando would sympathize if you did need it, though.
