Schrader-cast Continues with Kinky Sexy (?) Films, "American Gigolo" and "Cat People"

Published: May 8, 2023, 1 p.m.

Blaise is back to talk to Jason about Paul Schrader. This time they dig into Schrader's final two mainstream Hollywood studio films, American Gigolo and Cat People. Both films caused minor sensations when they were released in the early 80s, but do they shock and delight today or do they feel dated? Well, is it fair to say both things are true? Blaise and Jasone explore the odd, contradictory elements of these films which both linger in the brain long after they are watched.
