Episode notes
Before she was directing movies about iconic figures (becoming something of an icon herself in the process) Mary Harron was a journalist. And before that, she was inspired by characters like Rosalind Russell’s Hildy Johnson in HIS GIRL FRIDAY — a woman who is valued for her incomparable skill and undeniable smarts, who can’t quite seem to leave her complicated profession behind for what society deems a more “respectable” life. Mary’s new movie is DALíLAND, in theaters and on demand now.
Then Jordan’s got one quick thing about the trailer for the new Luca Guadagnino movie, CHALLENGERS.

About the show
On Feeling Seen, writer and general enthusiast Jordan Crucchiola invites filmmakers, writers, comedians, and artists to discuss the movie characters that made them “feel seen.” It’s about that instant when a person connects to a piece of art so deeply that they see themselves reflected in it. Every week Jordan gabs it up with a guest about those magical moments when they were watching a film and realized, “That’s me!” It’s an informative, funny, and comforting show about our intimate relationship with movies, the impact they have on our lives, and how they influence our art.
