Episode description

     This week a pair of European movies about women finding themselves.

     Anna Battista, a young and beautiful award winning actress, is desperate to spread her creative wings. Tragically, everyone tries to keep her down despite everyone around her totally seeing how brilliant she is and how great her movie would be. Even more tragically, Anna has a taste for massive amounts of recreational narcotics, a penchant for racism, and is quick to obsess over the worst musicians she can find. The semi-autobiographical directorial debut from Asia Argento, Scarlet Diva.
     Diane lives with her younger brother and single father. Being a lonely teen with raging hormones, she tries to unsuccessfully explore her burgeoning sexuality with a local boy. Fortunately, a wild new neighbor is happy to drag Anna along on her casual sexual adventures. Will Diane embrace her friend's ways or forge her own path? Some call it an oedipal complex but the French call it Puppylove.
     All that and Kevin waxes lyrical, Dave takes a secret nap, Craig has a fistfight with a hairstylist, and Tyler tries to prove that he's the only man who will love her more than her father.
     Join us, won't we?
