PATREON-EXCLUSIVE EPISODE - https://www.patreon.com/posts/39239654
Orson Welles' THE MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS (1942) tells the tragic story of an old-money family crushed by the wheel of progress, and has a complicated relationship with both old-money and progress. At least until the studio-imposed happy ending. We discuss a mangled masterpiece, and consider Orson Welles as an ideological challenge to Hollywood. PLUS: bad freelance writing experiences, and the "Cancel Culture" debate.
