Mia Goth is 'Pearl'

All Of It - A podcast by WNYC

If you are going out for Halloween tonight, you'll likely see some people dressed as Pearl, the murderous star of the acclaimed horror films, "X," and "Pearl." Both films were released this year and directed by Ti West. Mia Goth stars in both films as Pearl at different stages of her life. In "X," the first to be released, Goth stars as an elderly Pearl, seeking revenge on the young people around her as an outlet for her sexual frustration. In "Pearl," which Goth co-wrote with West, we see Goth as a younger Pearl, determined to become a big Hollywood star at any cost. "X" is available to stream now on Showtime, and "Pearl" is in theaters and in video on demand. Mia Goth joins us to discuss.
