How do societal double standards impact statistical reporting about sex and sexuality? Should love ever be unconditional? And should every woman have a stash of high-waisted, full-sized, leopard print briefs?
On this episode of The Wright Perspective Podcast, siblings Aubrey, Genia and Brittany ponder these questions and more as they recap and review Carmen Jones, a 1954 musical featuring Harry Belafonte, Dorothy Dandridge, and Pearl Bailey.
After brainstorming for alternative titles for this film (03:46), the siblings pick a voting symbol (05:57), recap the movie (12:04), discuss societal double standards about sex and sexuality (17:50), and debate whether Carmen Jones was a narcissist. They go on to discuss the characters, acting and singing (01:00:19), the dancing (01:13:47), Joe’s descent (01:15:58), and the casting (01:19:24), and then vote to determine whether the movie is a classic from The Wright Perspective (01:29:03).
