Summary
"That's what I like about you. I never know what you'll say next."
Alex Thompson and Kelly O'Sullivan's SAINT FRANCES was one of the best films released during quarantine, and no one has been a bigger champion of it than writer, editor, critic, and host Amelia Emberwing. The Wives Colangelo are joined by Emberwing to dissect what a coming-of-age film looks like as life milestones become increasingly unattainable, what adults can learn from children, the ways womanhood is scrutinized even in progressive spaces, and how period blood can be used to tell a story
