Editor's Note: I will be going to a 2 month break. There will be episodes released normally, they will just be prerecorded so if you send us any comments, we won't be able to get to them until I get back!
On this episode, Fake Film Fans focuses on "Femmes Femmes (aka Women Women)", a French New Wave musical film directed by Paul Vecchiali released in 1974. The film stars Hélène Surgère and Sonia Saviange. The film is about two actresses who are past their acting prime and turn to alcohol to get through their life. (00:02:14) Firstly, a small conversation on incel music and sex music. (00:10:01) Fake Films Fans hasn't discussed a non-English movie in a while so Walter is on withdrawal and he needs to be pretentious for this introduction. (00:23:09) Swade feels "Femmes Femmes" is a very honest film and explains what he means by that. (00:47:14) Walter wants to know why Swade didn't like the humorous parts of "Femmes Femmes" but Swade disagrees that the film is funny at all and they get into a big argument about it. (00:59:16) Swade shares an anecdote about using woman and women and Walter expresses how much he loves the dance and music in "Femmes Femmes". (01:11:30) Bunch of shoutouts to make this episode! Thank you everyone who is sending us messages and comments. Much love!

Episode 45: Movie Food! Food! Food! And Larry Cohen's "The Stuff"
On this episode, Fake Film Fans focuses on "The Stuff", an American film directed by Larry Cohen released in 1985. The film is a Cohen classic that depicts a white stuff but is also a satire on the way the American FDA and other similar organizations market things to society and create fads. Walter has talked about the microcinema in New York City called The Spectacle and one of his old colleague Erin joins the show! (00:02:54) "The Stuff" is a pretty grotesque movie but everyone has different opinions about who the real villain is; yet everyone does appreciate the same scenes! (00:41:01) Everyone discusses overeating and their favorites types of foods. (58:00) As a food episode, people share other ideas about food in films. (01:21:44) For the last part, there a bunch of shoutouts necessary as many people have commented. Maybe Swade's bookmarks are working?

Episode 44: "Death Note" is Actually Truly American
On this episode, Fake Film Fans focuses on "Death Note", the 2017 American adaption of the hit manga series directed by Adam Wingard . Famous for being a terrible adaption, this episode focuses on why its fun and also why its a bad film. This is the first time we have two guests, both Erin and Jamie are sisters who bring that sisterly bond to this episode. (00:03:15) Swade wants to talk about Jamie's Naruto fanfiction again and it leads to a conversation about clenching assholes and DNA. (00:20:01) Erin is a huge fan of "Death Note" and everyone shares why they like the film and the manga. Swade does not enjoy Light as a character and that makes people upset on the podcast. (00:39:20) Most people think the film has a lot of love put into it and is a great representation of camp except Walter who chooses to be annoyingly combative about it.(01:01:46) Erin wishes there were funko pops of this film and everyone shares alternative versions of the death note with one another. (01:12:54) If you enjoyed this episode, please listen to the end and support these great guests who support the podcast all the time!
