A Brutally Honest Review Of Babygirl

MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

On today’s show, it’s time to dive deep into the movie that has been consuming our thoughts, conversations, and TikTok feeds, Nicole Kidman’s new erotic drama Babygirl.

From some strange on-set stories that will make you see the movie in a different way to the fascinating reason why Antonio Banderas was cast and the hidden details behind particular scenes, there are so many layers to peel back and discuss when it comes to Babygirl.

And of course, we need to urgently dissect the movie’s viral sex scenes…but our opinions on them might be a little polarising.

And we haven't forgotten about Weekend Watch! Today we have an incredible new TV series starring one of our favourite actresses to recommend to you, and a new Netflix comedy that everyone is talking about.
