Death by Adaptation Podcast - Episode 09: The Fifty Shades Trilogy
Welcome to Death By Adaptation, a bi-weekly book club where we choose one classic book and compare and contrast it against its cinematic adaptations.
In this episode, Carson Timar from ClapperCast joins us to discuss the most famous trilogy of erotic novels and films released in the 2010s: Fifty Shades of Grey, Fifty Shades Darker, and Fifty Shades Freed, by E.L. James. We talk about the questionable romance at its core, the portrayal of sex and BDSM, Anastasia's "Inner Goddess", and whether an HBO TV show adaptation would improve the source material.
