She-Devil & Bachelorette (with Kaycee Felton-Lui)

When looking at the canon of "Vulgar Auteurism," you'll notice that most of the directors mentioned are... surprise... men! Specifically, white men. But because the very concept of "Vulgar Auteurism" is so loose and open to interpretation, we decided to dedicate the next month to female filmmakers that have, at one point or another, directed a critical misfire that honors the "Vulgar Female Gaze."

Writer Kaycee Felton-Lui joins us for our first installment in the miniseries for a double feature about toxic women and female rage. First up, it's the 1989 dark comedy "She-Devil" starring Meryl Streep, Roseanne Barr and Ed Begley, Jr. After that, we're jumping to 2012 for Leslye Headland's debut feature and adaptation of her own stage play, "Bachelorette" starring Kirsten Dunst, Lizzy Caplan and Isla Fisher.

Is "She-Devil" really the career-ending bomb that it was made out to be in 1989? Was there really a time when Meryl Streep was told she could never be funny? Did "Bachelorette" come too soon after the success of "Bridesmaids?" Was it too dark for general audiences looking for another comedy where women shit in a sink? Is there anything Kirsten Dunst can't do? Was Roseanne ill-equipped to face off against Streep in "She-Devil?" Why haven't any of us seen "Sophie's Choice?" Why doesn't Max know what a Baja Blast is? There's only one place to find out.
