JJ Lippman on Todd Haynes' SAFE

September 24, 2026 · 57 min

Show notes

JJ Lippman is one of the youngest guests we've ever had on the show, but she also has a new movie (MIND GAMES), and a debut novel out (MARITAL BLISS). She's a fast-thinking, fast-talking, friendly go-getter...so imagine our surprise when she knew for sure that she felt seen by Julianne Moore's Carol White, the lead role in the 1995 Todd Haynes masterpiece SAFE. She and Jordan get into the suburbia, the mental health, the environmental anxiety of it all -- and, perhaps, how to get clear once and for all.

Then Jordan has one quick thing about a couple of new action films from past guest James Nunn.
