Episode 361: In the Cut (2003)

This week, we discuss a major change of genre and focus for Meg Ryan: Jane Campion's divisive erotic thriller In the Cut (2003), in which Ryan plays a repressed English teacher who gets involved with an NYPD officer (Mark Ruffalo) investigating a brutal murder that took place in her own back garden. The film marked a break from Ryan's quirky rom-com image, and its quality is still debated more than twenty years on.

TW for discussions of sexual violence.

Next week, we close out our Meg Ryan month with What Happens Later (2023)!
