FFF Ep. #90 - Wildcat - Season 3 FINALE!

On this 90th episode and Season 3 finale of Fabulous Film & Friends we’re going to dig into 2024’s Wildcat, centering around the life and works of Great American Author Flannery O’ Connor and directed by Ethan Hawke, starring the director’s daughter Maya Hawke, Laura Linney, Phililip Ettinger, Cooper Hoffman, Steve Zahn, Rafael Casal, Alessandro Nivola Christine Dye, Vincent D’Onofrio and Liam Neeson.

I’m your host Gino Caputi and joining me this week to try and unpack all of this literary and cinematic heaviness are Lit major and self-proclaimed QUEEN of the College Library check-out counter, my kid sister Roseanne Caputi, Author, hyp-MO-therapist and pop culture critic Joe Field and a man who lived the life of O’Connor’s Southern heartthrob OE Parker, replete with tattoo long before it was fashionable: Gordon Alex Robertson.

Okay, Alex, say something macabre and spiritual, as a character in a Flannery O’Connor short story would utter at the moment of truth.

Before the duel of wits begins: the synopsis:

Wildcat details the physical, intellectual, emotional, spiritual and familial battles author Flannery O’Connor endures after she is stricken with Lupus and desperately attempts to ascertain God’s purpose for her and her gift for writing sardonic and uncomfortable grim morality tales.

What do we all make of this endeavor?
