End Credits #333 - March 20, 2024 (Love Lies Bleeding)

This week on End Credits, we're going to get swoll! Prepare to enter the exciting world of bodybuilding and queer romance in the late 1980s with the new neo-noir movie Love Lies Bleeding, and for all the K-Stew fans out there, we will pay tribute to your favourite actress' career by talking about some of her greatest hits!

This Wednesday, March 6, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Peter Salmon will discuss:

The Taming of the K-Stew. Kristen Stewart has been in the movie-making business for the 25 years now, and while most people know her from the big stuff like the Twilight films, and her Oscar-nominated turn in Spencer, she's actually had a lot of different roles in a lot of different kinds of movies. Before we get into Stewart's new film, we will talk about some of her old ones, which Stewart performances are among her best after her first quarter-century in the biz?

REVIEW: Live Lies Bleeding (2024). Not to be confused with Drive-Away Dolls, another period movie about lesbians caught up in some criming, Love Lies Bleeding embraces its film noir roots for all its heartache and violence and fatalism. Bodybuilder Jackie arrives in town and meets gym manager Lou, and just when they think they might escape and find happiness together, they realize that they're both bound by a dark fate, and the dark criminal underbelly of their border town. So do we love Love Lies Bleeding, or do want we let it bleed?

End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
