That Is Not My Story (Black Widow, Part 1) by There Was An Idea... An MCU Podcast published on 2021-08-06T10:35:58Z Such a poser! Host TK is joined by “Madame” Amy, one of the hosts of The Marvelous Madames podcast to discuss the big ideas of Black Widow. In this part, we talk about the timing and context of the film, consider how the character’s portrayal over the years serves as an intriguing case study in the evolution of female superheroes, and share our likes and dislikes about the movie. Then (29:30), we get into the “There Was An Idea…” treatment and discuss our first big idea: identity. We examine the development of Natasha’s identity story, including the impact of her early years on her journey toward becoming an Avenger and how this movie embraces the human being behind the moniker “Black Widow.” Stay tuned for part two!
