Paid in Puke S8E9: The Lost Daughter
On this episode of Paid in Puke, we get lost in Maggie Gyllenhaal's 2022 directorial debut. The Lost Daughter stars Olivia Coleman, Jessie Buckley, Dakota Johnson, and Dagmara Dominczyk. The film tackles biological motherhood in a way that is so candid, the author of the source material used a pseudonym to avoid backlash.
Among the Pukettes, two mothers and one childfree woman all saw completely different things in the intentionally ambiguous narrative. The Lost Daughter is a mirror that reflects our own experiences. One thing we agree on is that it's a staggering debut from Gyllenhaal and, to quote Leda, "motherhood is a crushing responsibility".
