This week, See Also is feeling flung out of space. For a very special holiday Poodle, Kate is joined by Chelsea Fairless, co-host of Every Outfit on SATC, for a virtual glove-lunch. Together, they play 1950s and devolve into "dyke debauchery" while discussing our fave and yours: Carol. They cover the martinis and creamed spinach, Our Cate's voice and her period-inappropriate manicure. Also: Alsos!
Based on crime novelist Patricia Highsmith’s "The Price of Salt", Carol (2015) is a contemporary – and somewhat unlikely – Christmas classic from director Todd Haynes and screenwriter Phyllis Nagy, who deftly nails the spirit of the original text. That spirit is the tingling, electric air between Carol (Cate Blanchett), a married woman with a small child, and Therese (Rooney Mara) a young amateur photographer moonlighting as a department store Christmas casual. Their paths cross one morning in the toy department, a glance makes way for some light shopping chit-chat, and the seed is sewn, a glove left on the counter, and there it is – an opportunity for a second meeting, and a cross-country road trip, against all odds (which include Carol’s estranged husband Herge, a gun and a looming custody battle).
