Cinema Bones - Ep 9 - Ammonite (2020)
In this episode, Masie & Stuart excavate the queer lesbian historical drama film Ammonite (2020) directed by Francis Lee. Sparking minor discourse on social media upon its release, the film received negative comparisons to its genre contemporary from the previous year, A Portrait of a Lady on Fire. Are these comparisons fair though? Listen as our hosts dissect Ammonite's own unique tonal, aesthetic, and character writing strength, in addition to its interesting, if messy, attempts at queering the historical life of British paleotologist Mary Anning.
