Hart of Dixie Chicks

Hop on the QE2 with us, dear hearts, as we sail back in time to 1998 to share our love for the remake of The Parent Trap. We go into the who’s, the where’s and the how’s of remaking the original, all while deciding if this SHOULD have been remade (spoiler: heck yeah). Put on …

As if this remake season would start with any other film but the classic The Parent Trap from 1961. We finally pay attention to the plot from a critical lens, and boy, does EVERYone here need therapy! We talk accents, hair cuts, practical effects, earworm songs written by two brothers who could only write bangers, …

We back, dear hearts! It’s a brand new season all about remakes, which we have lovingly titled Things Will Happen Again and Again. Here’s a preview of the 12 films we plan to cover, delivered in our signature style (iykyk). The first episode drops Wednesday, October 2! Let’s get together, yeah yeah yeah. We’ll be …

It’s a Halloween treat for us all as we dive into one of Jaleh’s all-time favorites and Jessica’s core fear, 1987’s The Monster Squad. We’re joined by resident monster expert, Jamie Clark Yeah, as we round up the ammo, virgins, and one Scary German Guy with a delicious looking pie. Grab your amulet and your …

Get ready for a Halloween treat from your Hart Chicks. Our Monster Squad episode drops on October 27, 2023.

We’ve made it all the way to week 10, and this gem is our reward. We happily rewatch 2013’s film adaptation of Austenland, and we think you should too. This one has everything — sax solos, Lord of the Rings, Nelly stories, Gaius Baltar, and even a little JJ Tilney talk. Hop a plane and …

Lots of firsts in this one, dear hearts, as we watch the Emmy Award-winning Lizzie Bennet Diaries. It’s our first webseries, our first modern adaptation, possibly our first disagreement! Don’t believe us? Ask my fiancé who lives in Winnipeg, Manitoba! Plus, Jess goes way into her fandom days, and Jaleh finds the links in the …

We’re into our second Pride & Prejudice, and this time, we got Zombies in the mix. Thankfully, we have Honorary Hart Chick and Midnight Murderaman Jamie to chat through it with us. We ask the big questions like: Which fighting style is best? Is Darcy’s duster jacket fit for a wedding? Who is this movie …

This one’s a big one, dear hearts, so feel free to take a turn about the room with us as we fully experience Jessica’s favorite movie, 2005’s Pride & Prejudice. We talk tracking shots, wigs, Emma Thompson, dresses (especially those with hems six inches deep in mud), and hands, of course. Cold, flexed, or otherwise. …

It’s time to get Gothic as we dive into the hilariously sweet Northanger Abbey. It has everything Jess loves — possible murders, innuendos, and very good faces. Plus, we get our fancasts on, develop our own modern adaptations, and occasionally discuss the plot. Slag off Sorkin with us, dear hearts.   Music: @sigismundtryapkin  Artwork: @jstnmbrwn  …

It’s a Hart Chicks classic as we dive into Jaleh’s fave, the truly underrated Persuasion. We’ve got trope talk, romance recs, great and terrible faces, and a reference to literally every other pod season we’ve done. It’s what you know & love. Run the Bath marathon with us, dear hearts. Music: @sigismundtryapkin  Artwork: @jstnmbrwn    …

Hold onto your butts, because we’re on a carriage ride with the Dashwoods. This week, we tackle the 2004 Sense & Sensibility miniseries, where we discuss the red flag combination of Lord Byron and Dominic Cooper, Cousin Matthew’s mullet, and a group of townies worthy of Bluebell. Don’t bother knocking, dear hearts— Meg already saw …

This is an episode years in the making, much like the Marx-Engles Reader. We’re deep diving into North & South aka Pride & Prejudice & Death & Unions. Listen as we gush about our love of practical effects, the danger of The Fluff, and a miniseries worth of Very Good Faces. Look back at us, …

We’re flying across the pond and into the moors for a Jaleh favorite, the 2006 Jane Eyre miniseries. It’s the hottest Rochester the world has ever known, and listener, we’d marry him too. We cover it all from Dave Matthews Band to Ruth Wilson’s gorgeous hair and everything in between. Wander the halls with us, …

We’re starting our journey to the past on this side of the pond with Greta Gerwig’s Little Women. Jaleh dives deep into the color story of Miss Flo, and Jessica can’t stop talking about a different film. It’s the classic Hart Chicks you know and love. Come trade limes with us, dear hearts. Bibliography: Brody, …

The Hart Chicks Present are dropping a new season on June 22, 2023. Join us, dear hearts, on a 10 week journey of classic literature film and mini-series adaptations, with a few modern twists thrown into the mix.

It’s trope talk this week on The Hart Chicks Present as we ask ourselves so many questions about 2005’s The Baxter. While this film is our type on paper, it better get its grafting boots on. However, we’d go geode hunting in Malta with Justin Theroux and Jack Mechanic any day. We’re Doug and you’re …

We get deep into our feelings this week in part two of our Kumail couplet, where we all catch The Big Sick, based on Kumail & Emily’s IRL relationship. Jaleh explains why it’s triggering, Jessica yammers on about Ray Romano, and Honorary Hart Chick Jamie publicly apologizes for not laughing at every single one of …

It’s the beginning of an accidental triplet, and we are super duper in love with 2020’s The Lovebirds. It’s a caper, it’s a romance, it’s a comedy, it’s Kumail and Issa giving us the goods from t to b. If you like quotes about Doug and Dad, ideas for Sex & the City podcasts, and …

Skiddly to your mailbox for those Netflix discs, because we’re taking it back to the mid-00s with a gem of a film. We’re talking Something New, but your beloved cohosts are the same as ever. We clamor for a remake with Ryan Atwood, we proclaim ourselves good teeth-ers, and we never walk alone because Donald …
