The Steve Buscemi Test

For all you content creators and consumers out there!

Let me start by saying that Steve Buscemi is a fucking treasure and a badass.

That out of the way, on a great podcast- the Bechdel Cast- they introduced the “Steve Buscemi Test” and I wanted to share it because as much as I do truly love Steve Buscemi its a useful(????) if judgemental tool.

Take any narrative-film,fic,etc.- and consider the romantic relationship(s) explored. Let’s use the example of a classic rom-com by the late Great Bill Shakes: Romeo and Juliet

Remove Romeo- keep all dialogue and actions- and replace him with Steve Buscemi

Now, if that character’s actions now seem creepy, horrifying, cringeworthy, hilarious- then you have a problem. Specifically, that that character was relying on his good looks and animal magnetism to be a good romantic partner.

(I mean real talk screw Romeo. And Juliet for that matter but that’s another thing altogether).

Anyway, I wanted to share and ask you to consider a romantic relationship where you replace one of the people with Steve Buscemi and ask yourself: are these the actions of a serial killer or of a healthy lover?

I’m listening to Bechdel Cast and definitely accidentally burst out laughing in a quiet cafe while sitting by myself with my headphones on! Classic podcast experience.

#MovieTalkWithCaitlin

If you have Instagram, I was a guest on Caitlin Durante’s #MovieTalkWithCaitlin show, where we talked all about movies!

Specifically we spoke about films that we will never, ever watch again, why the Twilight Saga is racist trash, The Aila Test, Does The NDN Live Test, and we wrapped up with several film recommendations!

Follow the link below if you’d like to check it out!

Some trigger warnings:  although there are no visuals, we do discuss films that deal with residential schools, anti-native racism, domestic violence, suicide, cancer, death of a parent, and death/murder of children. We keep things light and funny for the majority of the talk and we take these subjects very seriously and with respect.
