Seven Brides for Seven Brothers

Dan hasn’t seen Seven Brides for Seven Brothers

Bless your beautiful podcast-listening hide, wherever you might be! In this episode, Heather shows Dan the classic 1954 musical Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. Has the movie aged well as a subversive look at relationships and gender dynamics, or is it wildly problematic? Spoiler alert: it’s the second one, but are the songs at least any good? Find out what Dan thinks about the movie the American Film Institute ranked as one of the top 25 best musicals in this hilarious episode of Blind Spots & Second Thoughts! (And, if you’re in the mood for a drinking game, take a shot every time Dan says, “feral gingers”)

About the Podcast

Blind Spots & Second Thoughts
Watching and rewatching movies with a fresh set of eyes
We're Dan & Heather, a couple of movie lovers (and a couple, too). Each episode, we're going to be looking at a movie that one of us hasn't seen (probably Heather): from some classics you'd be astonished that someone hasn't seen (again, probably Heather), to some of our more obscure favorites. We'll be talking about what we know, or at least, what we *think* we know about the movie. Then after watching it, we'll recap the movie, discuss what we thought, find out if the movie has withstood the test of time, and hopefully have a few laughs along the way.
