2021 Valentines Day Special – Secretary (2002) v The Duke of Burgundy (2014)

Welcome to our customary February “Romantic Movie” showdown in honour of Valentine’s Day.

*CONTENT WARNING* This year we are looking at two films that look at BDSM relationships. Please note that this makes the episode somewhat more ‘adult’ than usual. We focus primarily on the music and the underlying relationships, but please avoid this episode if discussion of sex, sexuality and bondage is uncomfortable for you (or unsuitable for the environment in which you listen to podcasts).

Rounds for this month

1 – Opening Music

2 – Characters and Fetishes

3 – Sexual Fantasy

4 – Relationship Breakdown

5 – Legacy

Also a disclaimer that whilst we are professional film composers and knowledgeable on that side of things, we openly acknowledge that neither of us are experts regarding BDSM. If you find that we have been disrespectful or inaccurate in any of our discussion, it is not intentional and please let us know through the channels below so that we can discuss how we can make right.

To do this, or find out more, or leave us a message you can reach us at @tristellarmusic on your favourite social media (twitter, facebook and insta) or via our website - www.tristellarmusic.com

We hope you’ve enjoyed another Soundtrack Showdown episode. If so, the absolute best things you can do for us are to share us with your friends and family, and/or leave us a lovely review wherever you get your podcasts.

Stay safe out there everybody.
