Fat on Film by Barbara Plotz with Haz Cady
Manage episode 338246243 series 2625030
I've had a lot of chats on this podcast with people who've become friends after the show but rarely do I get to chat to a friend I had before getting them on the show (see my chat with Chavonne about Fierce Fattie or with Pascale about The Fat Lady Sings to see a couple I have done), but this episode is with a friend. I met Haz Cady when my podcast was very new and we've had some great chats ever since (almost three years worth of chatting about books!). This episode is basically an opportunity for you listeners to sit in with us as we talk about Fat on Film by Barbara Plotz. I know you're going to love the relaxed vibe. We talk about a lot of things, including:
- Haz's journey to fat acceptance (in three parts...like a book...get it?)
- Haz's eating disorder and what food means now
- Melissa McCarthy and Rebel Wilson as our only fat representation (...and Queen Latifah but we talk about how her representation is different than the other two)
- Masculinity in film or how men have to walk a body image line too
- Femininity in film or how femininity always comes back to men
- The lines fat actors have to walk
- The use of a larger body as an inherently funny body in comedy
- The way the camera angles, the sound effects, the choreography allow for the audience to laugh at the actor's body
- Is there any attempt to soften the fat phobia in film?
- The trope of the fat person eating
- A discussion about Harry Potter
- Fat people as outsiders and deviations from the norm
- Fat, people of color in film
- The way this book has changed our film watching experiences FOREVER!
- Difference between film and theatre representation
Keep Reading Everyone!
