2005\u2032s Shopgirl<\/i> looked like a safe Oscar bet on paper – a whimsical, lighthearted romance with Claire Danes taking her ascendancy into lead roles and Steve Martin capitalizing on an Oscar shutout narrative that began in the 80s with All of Me<\/i>. But its Oscar chances died once the film arrived in the May-December shadow of Lost in Translation<\/i> and left our love story expectations unfulfilled. This week, Ralph Breaks The Internet<\/i> and Moana<\/i> screenwriter Pamela Ribon joins us to talk about this film about a sad seller of gloves who doesn\u2019t know how special she is and the men who love her.<\/p>\n

Shopgirl<\/i> is sadly an example of aughts era romances that sacrifices its female protagonist\u2019s sense of self to the arc of her male counterpoints, and all of the chaste shots of ladies backs to portray sex onscreen. This episode we also discuss Shopgirl<\/i>\u2019s laughable representation of parking in Los Angeles,\u00a0 the perfect Jason Schwartzman burn, and one early Oscar memory of a comedy performance that deserved a nomination.<\/p>\n
