About this episode
Welcome to Femme on Film where host Ria Carrogan and a guest chat about films made for women, about women, by women… just awesome lady (and those who identify as awesome lady folk) content that has often been unfairly maligned, misunderstood by critics, and are often way ahead of their time and need a revisit. This is a place to discuss all of this, and more!
Join Ria and guest Tonya Todd to discuss Grease 2, exploring whether Michelle Pfeiffer's Stephanie Zinone is a feminist icon, how the messages of Grease 2 are way better than Grease, female friendship and the importance of not being anyone's trophy.
