Episode Notes ["Maintain(Makaih.com)," by Makaih Beats, CC BY-NC-ND 4.0] ["Maintain(Makaih.com)," by Makaih Beats, CC BY-NC-ND 4.0] L: Hi, I'm Lami Zhang. V: This is Victoria Benefield. L: And welcome to Subtitled, a podcast where two fake film students take a look at popular TV shows and movies. Although I am no longer a film student, I have dropped my minor, and I am picking up art history.  V: Whoo! Exciting!  L: Yeah, which is a possibly even more pretentious minor than Film and Media Studies. V: I don't know. I feel like based on the length of the title of it, Film and Media Studies is really obnoxious. Like I feel embarrassed when I introduce myself with a Film and Media studies minor. Sometimes I have to shorten it to film studies to sound slightly less ridiculous. L: Alright, so today we're going to talk about our 2020 favorites and least favorites for TV shows and movies. Because we have a lot of opinions on things like this. V: Oh yes. And all things. I think we have opinions on a lot of things.  L

Episode Notes Trigger warning for mentions of sexual violence from 5:15 through 5:50. Spoiler alert for everything beyond 11:50. Beck Dengler  This is going to be NBN’s Bridgerton Roundtable. We're going to talk about this just crazy show that tries to do a million things at once. It was adapted based on a novel series by Julia Quinn, which is actually an eight book series. So there could be a lot of Bridgerton in our future. The show has been very hyped, at least a lot of people are watching it. So I guess the first question to begin with is does Bridgerton deserve the hype? And what are your thoughts on the show?   Isha I mean, I liked it. I think it kind of did deserve the hype. I feel like a lot of the drama lately have been teen dramas, and not period pieces-ish. So I feel like it's kind of new. It has its own flavor. And I think Shonda Rhimes is the producer, and I mean I like all of her other shows. She brings in a lot of the elements that I like about the other shows into Bridgerton. And so I think th

V: And the overwhelming hotness of a chain-wearing Irish man.  L: Today, we're talking about Normal People. An Irish show that follows Marianne and Connell through high school and college, as they weave in and out of each other's lives. The show focuses on relationships, mental health and masculinity.

Episode Notes LAMI: Hey, this is Lami Zhang VICTORIA: This is Victoria Benefield. LAMI: Welcome to Subtitled, a podcast where two fake film students take a look at popular movies and TV shows. Seriously, neither of us can get into any film classes. So if anyone knows how, please help us. LAMI: This episode contains strong language and discussion of the sexualization of children and sexual assault. VICTORIA: And also spoilers. VICTORIA: Today, we’re talking about Cuties, a French film released in September directed by Maiimouna Doucouré. If you somehow haven’t heard anything about this movie, I’ll sum it up for you: an 11-year-old Senegalese girl, Amy, who has just immigrated to Paris with her family, meets a group of young girls who are preparing to enter a dance competition. The film follows her friendship with the girls, their journey to the competition, and Amy’s internal conflict between her traditional Muslim roots and the liberal culture represented by her friends and social media. Sounds innocent eno

Episode Notes [“Coffee” Theme by Cambo] Gabriel Firmo: Alright, so welcome back to State of the Arts, a podcast by two idiots on NBN. My name is Gabriel Firmo. Lucas Bezerra: And I'm Lucas Bezerra. And Happy 2020! Gabriel: Yeah, welcome back. It was surprisingly quick, the break. Lucas: It was extremely quick. Well, the break was quick, but traveling back was not. I think you took a direct flight from Brazil. Gabriel: Yes, it is the worst. Lucas: I did not. It's not the worst for you. I mean, jumping around on airplanes wasn't fun. But we're back. We're here recording our third episode of State of the Arts. Gabriel: Yeah. And so what is the...? We have a pretty traditional question to start the year? Lucas: Yeah I mean, I figured we'd just do a little recap of 2019 and our favorite arts-related thing that we did. It could be like, one in Northwestern, one out of Northwestern. Gabriel: That we did or that we consumed? Lucas: That we did, that we consumed, I guess is a better way to put it. That we saw, experi

Episode Notes Gabriel Firmo 0:08 Oh, welcome to the state of the arts podcast by two idiots on NBN. My name is Gabriel Firmo. And I'm Lucas Bezerra. And this podcast is kind of hard to describe. We are both- Lucas Bezerra 0:19 Pitch it like you pitched it to me. Gabriel Firmo 0:20 Yeah, we're both artsy people on NU campus. Yep. Self, self determined artsy people-To be verified. Lucas Bezerra 0:27 Our authority on this is nil, Gabriel Firmo 0:28 Yeah. And I pitched it to Lucas just being like talking essentially, to the artsy people we find interesting on campus and also just talking about being an amateur at this level and college artists and you're right about to be at the level where you are doing something super serious, but you're also not quite there yet. Most of the time. Lucas Bezerra 0:47 A little bit of a round table just discussion about arts, you know? Gabriel Firmo 0:51 Yeah. And by no means do we pretend to be experts, right? We're not, but we are enthusiasts, I'd say. So li
