Elizabeth Gilbert may have written the bible (a.k.a. the GQ article on which Coyote Ugly was based), but her forays into other religions were more questionable. Celebrate the launch of Sucker Punch, your host Scaachi Koul’s blistering new essay collection about her own divorce, by roasting one rich woman’s phoenix-like emergence from the ashes of a failed marriage as she heads into the loving embrace of white emotional tourism. In Eat Pray Love, watch Gilbert (played by Julia Roberts) cherry-pick the most digestible parts of each culture she visits before landing safely back in the arms of a man (thank GOD).
Join Drunk Feminist Films for an idyllic romp through countries that start with “i” in search of self-actualization and healing (which, let’s face it, anyone would need after dating James Franco). Buy a copy of Scaachi’s book in the cinema while you’re at it, courtesy of our friends at Another Story Bookshop.
This screening is part of a two-night double feature—we’re screening Charlie’s Angels (2000) on March 27 hosted by Natalie Norman and Sima Sepehri. Bring your crew for an evening (or two) of spirited fun. Come to both screenings and get a free gift at the merch table!
Drunk Feminist Films will donate 10% of ticket sale profits to Sistering.
Doors: 7:00 PM
Show: 8:00 PM
The film will be screened with captions. Please email us at [email protected] by March 12 if you require ASL interpretation for the commentary, and we will ensure it is available for you!
Masks are encouraged between sips/bites.
The cinema has wheelchair-accessible seats, and there is also an accessible washroom. Ticketholders requiring an accessible seat may email [email protected], and we will ensure cinema staff direct your party to your seat upon arrival.
Please do not wear scented products to DFF screenings. All washrooms on-site will be open to people of any gender. We ask our guests to avoid making assumptions and comments about other guests' bodies or gender identities (e.g. which washroom equipment they use).
About Sucker Punch
Sucker Punch (Knopf Canada, 2025) is about what happens when the life you thought you’d be living radically changes course, everything you thought you knew about the world and yourself has tilted on its axis, and you have to start forging a new path forward. Scaachi Koul examines the fights she’s had—with her parents, her ex-husband, her friends, online strangers, and herself—all in an attempt to understand when a fight is worth having, and when it's better to walk away.
About Drunk Feminist Films
Since 2013, Drunk Feminist Films has been producing interactive events that use shouty, snarky & fun-fuelled commentary to tease apart the tropes of mainstream movies. Because we'd rather laugh than cry about representations of gender, race, sexuality, class and other aspects of identity in pop culture. Drinking definitely not required.
