Father, son and house of Gucci.

0:04.0

Hello darlings and welcome to Kill James Brunch.

0:23.5

It's your Auntie Alice, joined as ever by Auntie Abigail and Devon.

0:28.5

Hello.

0:29.6

Hey.

0:30.9

I'm doing this voice because it's become necessary to talk about camp,

0:35.4

and it doesn't get much camper than House of Gucci. I picked this as a

0:40.3

fun, easy watch, and then I became, again, for the second time in my life, obsessed with this film.

0:46.3

And I'm going to inflict that on my colleagues over the course of an hour and change.

0:51.3

I mean, I thought it was just going to be like a bit of an odd choice, like a bit of a popcorn watch for us.

0:56.2

But there's actually quite a bit to say, actually, and I think it is interesting.

I didn't mean to get up at 1am, but I had twinks to message and then I got distracted talking to the

twinks. So you know what happens. I've got some twinks I want a message too. Yeah, but House

2:06.4
