Hard To Love: Difficult & Undesirable Women in Romantic Comedies From The Early Aughts

My lecture from the March 4th, 2019 edition of Trampoline Hall curated by Jes Sachse (with Elwood Jimmy's 'The Art of Knowing' and Kiera Boult's 'The Emancipation of Kiki').

A lecture and performance art piece on my identification with histrionic women in terrible early 2000’s romantic comedies, as well as a reflection on the dated gender dynamics of the era. Movies discussed: How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days, The Ugly Truth, What Women Want, May, Leather Dreams and Safety Net
