Get Out

Published by USC Bedrosian Center on

Warning: *spoilers!*

In this episode of the Price Projection Room podcast we discuss Jordan Peele’s first feature length film, Get Out.

Get Out follows a young African-American photographer on a visit to his white girlfriend’s parents’ home. The tag line sums up the deep horror of the film, “Just because you’re invited, doesn’t mean you’re welcome.” The film is funny, scary, and has sparked conversations (and even a viral challenge) throughout the country.

Featuring Alessandro Ago, Carla Della Gatta, Aubrey Hicks, and Erroll Southers

 

Special thanks to Dean Jack Knott, USC Price; Dean David Bridel, USC School of Dramatic Arts; and Dean Elizabeth Daley, USC Cinematic Arts for their support of this interdisciplinary conversation.
