204: The Virgin Suicides (1999) w/ Miranda Zickler

"We knew the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love, and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them."

Sofia Coppola's directorial debut delivered the world a new look at the Lisbon Sisters, undeniably feminine atmospheric filmmaking, an examination of the way men examine women, and generations of women responded by romanticizing their pain and aestheticizing turmoil as a means of processing negative emotions. This week, the Wives Colangelo are joined by a dear friend of the show, Miranda Zickler, to discuss why THE VIRGIN SUICIDES is a seminal film and one of the most important films in the teen girl canon.
