The Problematic Gaze

By: David Moor and Lee Arnott
  • Summary

  • Join Lee and Dave for lighthearted look at the world of TV, Film and Popular Culture of yesteryear that has since been considered problematic. Should they be 'cancelled' or celebrated? What can we learn from them? Does the mention of 'Mrs Slocombe's pussy' send you into hysterical laughter or moral outrage? Or are you just as confused as us as to how we should feel? Perhaps a glass of wine would help?

  • Ep 23: 'The Prime Of Miss Jean Brodie' British film from 1969. Maggie Smith, Girls and Mussolini
    Nov 12 2024

    Join Lee and Dave for a lighthearted look at the world of TV, Film and Popular Culture from yesteryear that has since been considered problematic. This week, we cast our gaze on the classic British film "The Prime Of Miss Jean Brodie", starring Maggie Smith in an Oscar winning turn. Is Jean Brodie a romantic heroine or deluded egomaniac? One things for sure, she'd better watch her back. Her 'girls' are about to turn.

    Also, Dave and Lee dive into their bulging sack, of Gazers emails. And just what has Dave left in the back of his Zoom shot?

    You can watch 'The Prime Of Miss Jean Brodie' on YouTube here.
