DESCRIPTION:The Challenge: Gateway Drug Films\n\nThis week\, we're confronting our esoteric film prejudices by finding the perfect "gateway drug" film for a genre we've unfairly dismissed.\nYour Mission:\n\n• Identify ONE genre you've been talking trash about at the brunch table\n• Watch the recommended "gateway film" for that genre\n• Decide if your prejudice was justified or if you need to text some people apologies\n\nGateway Film Suggestions:\n\n• Hate musicals? Try Hedwig and the Angry Inch - rock music\, gender exploration\, and exactly zero spontaneous village dance numbers (but also here’s a list for people who do hate musicals https://letterboxd.com/ferchgonzalez/list/dont-say-i-hate-musicals-if-you-havent-seen/)\n• Think rom-coms are garbage? Watch The Apartment and witness Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine inventing chemistry (but here’s a wonderful list of romcoms  https://letterboxd.com/mashaznchnk/list/if-you-hate-anyone-but-you-god-bless-you/that may change your mind)\n• Horror makes you icky? The Others delivers spine-tingles without making you watch anyone get chainsawed in half (or check out this list https://letterboxd.com/horrorera/list/horror-beyond-blood-gore-jump-scares/ that features horror films that skip the blood\, gore and jump scares)\n• Can't stand black & white films? The Third Man has more style in a single zither note than most color films manage in two hours (I also adore so many of these B&W films in this list https://letterboxd.com/mariajrodrigues/list/black-and-white/)\n\n\n\n------\n\nPowered by addevent.com \nShare your next event with us!\n
