265 - Brideshead Revisited
We all know that Oscar fawns over costume dramas of literary adaptations -- or so we tell ourselves when forming predictions and one with a whiff of prestige arrives. In 2008, director Julian Jerrold delivered a new adaptation of Evelyn Waugh's Brideshead Revisited with an up-and-coming young cast paired with Dame Emma Thompson as the devoutly religious Lady Marchmain. With Matthew Goode as the social climber Charles Ryder and Ben Whishaw and Hayley Atwell as the siblings he romances, the queer-inflected drama earned modest reviews and box office, with Thompson an outsider Supporting Actress contender through the season.
This episode, Thompson joins our six timers club and we discuss our love for the then-emerging Whishaw. We also look back at Goode's career including the misbegotten Watchmen film, Atwell's career outside of Marvel, and the surprising amount of time that has passed since Thompson's last nomination.
Topics also include Brideshead riff Saltburn, pneumonia terminology, and 2008 queer cinema.

Ruth Myers likely created this white wedding gown for the 1996 film adaptation of Emma, where Greta Scacchi wore it as Mrs. Weston. It was most recently seen in the 2016’s Pride and Prejudice and Zombies movie, where it was worn by Lily James as Elizabeth Bennet, also as a bride.
