@abridged2far presents “The Substance” (2024, directed by Coralie Fargeat). I know this movie is recent but it’s already a classic in my view. Who doesn’t love/hate/envy their other self/self/mother/daughter proxy type person?

@abridged2far presents “The Stepford Wives” (1975, directed by Bryan Forbes) based on the 1972 novel by Ira Levin.

@abridged2far presents “The Goat or Who is Sylvia?” by Edward Albee. I saw this show with Jonathan Pryce. It makes “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf” look like “Guys and Dolls”. Big thanks to @papasbasement.bsky.social for pretending to have banged a goat! 🐐 💖

Men would rather become Tootsie than go to therapy. In that spirit, here’s “Tootsie” (1982) directed by Sydney Pollack. #tootsie #dustinhoffman #sydneypollack #tomato

Abridged 2 Far presents STAR WARS: The Empire Strikes Back (1980), featuring @jdincauze.bsky.social as Darth Vader. What’s your favorite tale about space faring fascists that isn’t just a cold reality?

“A Doll’s House” by Henrik Ibsen (1879)

FUN FACT: Ibsen’s German agent didn’t think the ending where Nora leaves her kids would play well with German audiences, so Ibsen was forced to write an alternative ending. Ok, I guess facts aren’t THAT fun.
