Adult-Ish

Comedy


Do you ever feel a way when you re-watch one of your favorite films as an adult? While we know 'Adult-ish' host Afiya loves to tear into Disney films with her adult lenses, it's Mr. Vincent Bernard who has something to say about one of his favorite features. In this fun episode of 'Adult-ish,' the pair take on several films from their past including 'To Wong Foo: Thanks For Everything, Julie Newmar,' and how the film reduced sexual assault to comedic plot as well as their personal favorite, 'Bram Stoker's Dracula.' The two really take a deeper dive into moments of the film that spoke to assault, rape, and sexuality on levels that weren't really there yet as younger folks. While we laughed and loved as children, as adults, the twosome sit back and take a harder look at these themes and how they expressed themselves. And yes, the two were slightly inebriated. But that makes the convo all the more fun!
