Crimson Peak - A Gothic Film
Manage episode 316810234 series 2840696
This week, Elle and Catrina talk about Guillermo de Toro's 2015 film, Crimson Peak!
*DISCLAIMER* This episode is spoiler heavy - if you haven't seen Crimson Peak and don't want any of the story spoiled then take a moment, watch it first, and come back to us - we'll be here when you're ready.
Elle does a wonderful job of setting up the film's major plot points - highlighting the gorgeous scenery, expertly designed costumes, and actors chosen at the peaks of their careers all coming together under the brilliance of del Toro's vision to create a truly expectational tale of horror and romance.
Catrina reviews the gothic tropes discussed in the Northanger Abbey wrap up episode to see which ones stand out in the film and how they are used to add to the atmosphere of terror and suspense.
But friends, this is a Jane Austen podcast, so how does this compare to Northanger Abbey? Are there any similarities at all? Can we find the gothic in the sentimental aspects of Austen's story; is there any reprieve from the specters and madness of Crimson Peak? We shall see.
