When Kate Freund was a child, she wanted to learn how to fight. But her mother signed her up for dance classes instead.

However, the dance lessons didn’t supplant her desire to kick ass. Freund instead combined these two passions into Pretty Lethal; a screenplay about a group of ballerinas who must battle their way out of a bar full of criminals.

The film took over a decade to see the light of day. After many starts and stops, it was released earlier this year on Amazon Prime with a stacked cast that includes Uma Thurman, Maddie Ziegler, Lana Condor, Avantika and Iris Apatow.

We talk to Freund about her journey to get Pretty Lethal on-screen.

This week’s music:

• Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
• Interstitial – “Vishnu Meets Funk” and “Ancient Ritual” by Lucas Perný & Miloslav Kollar

Whether you’re watching Showgirls, Face/Off, Bound or one of her countless other films, one thing you can be sure of is that when Gina Gershon shows up on a movie screen, she’s not taking any crap from anyone.

It’s no surprise then that she also doesn’t suffer fools in her personal life. And her new memoir, AlphaPussy, offers stories and advice to guide others on how to navigate the world as she does.

We talk to Gershon about the book, working with Robert Altman on The Player and her battles with Paul Verhoeven while filming Showgirls. And we also get to see the AlphaPussy in action as she lets us know how frustrated she got attempting to sign into our video chat.
