Female Psychopath Series: To Die For & Pamela Smart
Manage episode 479883925 series 2440436
This week on Terror Talk Podcast, we’re diving headfirst into the true crime case that inspired the 1995 film To Die For. That’s right—we’re talking about the real-life story of Pamela Smart, her controversial trial, and how it all morphed into Gus Van Sant’s icy, satirical thriller starring Nicole Kidman as the unforgettable Suzanne Stone.
We break down:
The parallels between Suzanne and Pamela
Why Suzanne’s narcissism is chef’s kiss for dark character study
Psychological diagnoses we’d slap on this femme fatale
This one’s a blend of film love, forensic curiosity, and commentary with a side of smirk.
