Episode description

Before The Fall (2016), dir. Byrum Giesler, is a retelling of Jane Austen's seminal work Pride and Prejudice that is gender flipped, gay, and class swapped and... doesn't seem to like Pride and Prejudice very much? Also, why did you choose to make this story about women and women's lives about men? Why'd you do that?


Autumn, Hal, and special guest Lauren discuss adaptations, cave sex, and this movie's weird relationship with domestic violence in this week's episode of Okay, But Is It Gay?.


TW: This episode contains discussion of alcoholism and addiction, ableism against addicts, domestic violence, poor treatment of victims of domestic violence, misogyny, homophobia, internalized homophobia, self destructive behavior, homophobic slurs, gas lighting, this movie is really weird about mental illness, the invasion of privacy, stealing journals and mail and sexual themes.
