Episode description
5 Star Tossers try to make sense of the Paul Verhoeven "Masterpiece of Shit" "Showgirls." Did we? We sure wrestled over it, and we churned out some humiliating memories, some Marxist feminist theories à la Silvia Federici, a hypothesis about the difference between satirizing violence and satirizing sex, a theory of the hoax, and we introduce Deleuze's cinematic concept "the crystalline element."
