Summary

This week's BKMC takes a look at director Gus Van Sant's black comedy "To Die For," starring Nicole Kidman. Tom and Lorenzo unpack how the film sits perfectly in a 1990s cultural continuum that includes everything from the Menendez brothers to Cher Horowitz as well as all the ways it eerily predicted the cultural shifts of the internet and social media.
