A cis teen gets caught in a web of lies when he’s mistaken for a trans man in mid-’00s gay Bushwick. Sound familiar? It’s the movie that Tumblr successfully boycotted, but is Adam (2019) actually… good? Rocky and Cody are on a mission to find out, diving into all the controversies and assessing director Rhys Ernst’s thorny vision. Persons of interest include Joey Soloway, Cameron Post, and dear Evan Hansen.
Rocky and Cody can be found on their respective Twitters. Pulp Frictionis available on Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, and wherever else you get your podcasts. Subscribe and share to support the show, reach out to Rocky or pulpfrictioncast@gmail.com with any business inquiries.
