On this episode of Legit Cool Podcast, we're diving into Zoe Kravitz's directorial debut, Blink Twice. I rated it a 7/10, and for good reason—it's a strong start for Kravitz, even with a few rough edges in editing and directorial choices. This thriller takes a page from the playbooks of Fincher, Hitchcock, and Kubrick but also brings something fresh to the table with its sharp social commentary on the sexualization and exploitation of women.
We’ll be breaking down the plot, discussing Kravitz’s choices, and getting into why this film, despite its flaws, shows promise for her future in filmmaking. If you're into thrillers that keep you guessing and pack a punch with their themes, you'll want to stick around for this one.
