In this episode, we embark on a series called TENDER IS THE FLESH (inspired by my recent reading of the book of that title by Augustina Bazterrica) where we will explore the varied portrayals of cannibalism in film -- FUN -- starting with "The Cook, The Thief, His Wife & Her Lover" a 1989 deeply disturbing cinematic masterpiece by Peter Greenaway.

Other films (probably) coming this series (if you want to get ahead): "Bones and All" (2022), "Fresh" (2022), "Society of the Snow" (2023), "Silence of the Lambs" (1991).
