Episode notes
Elle Woods is an iconic character, but not an obvious one from Tre’vell Anderson, author of the new book, We See Each Other: A Black. Trans Journey Through TV and Film. Leave it to the effervescent Tre’vell to bring their signature FANTI gray-area mindset to their Feeling Seen character choice! In this episode, Tre’vell and Jordan look at what it is about Elle Woods that offered Tre’vell a glimpse of what they could be…and consider if future generations of Black, trans folks might be able to feel seen without much mental gymnastics.
Then, Jordan has one quick thing about the WGA strike.

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.
