‘You Must Remember This’, geschreven, geproduceerd en verteld door Karina Longworth, is een duik in de vergeten geschiedenis van de eerste eeuw van Hollywood. De huidige serie ‘Erotic 90s’ onderzoekt alles, van de gevolgen van Croenenburgs Crash-première in Cannes in 1996 tot de blijvende feministische erfenis van Thelma en Louise. Soms klinken de verhalen enigszins ongelooflijk, maar dat is de aard van Hollywood. Het gebruik van tegenstrijdige rapporten, mythologisering en spin in de podcast schetst allemaal een zeer levendig beeld van hoe het is achter de camera.
You Must Remember This is a storytelling podcast exploring the secret and/or forgotten histories of Hollywood’s first century. It’s the brainchild and passion project of Karina Longworth (founder of Cinematical.com, former film critic for LA Weekly), who writes, narrates, records and edits each episode. It is a heavily-researched work of creative nonfiction: navigating through conflicting reports, mythology, and institutionalized spin, Karina tries to sort out what really happened behind the films, stars and scandals of the 20th century.
The first episode of You Must Remember This tells the story of actress Kim Novak — a top box office draw of the late 1950s and the iconic star of Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo — and her painful struggles to assert herself from the mid-20th century through well into the 21st, in a Hollywood that repeatedly sent her the message that she was only valuable for the way she looked, while also insisting that she didn’t quite look good enough. Originally released in April 2014, this episode has been “lost” for almost as long due to copyright issues with its soundtrack. Today, in honor of the podcast’s ten year anniversary, we’re rereleasing this episode with new music, largely re-recorded voiceover, and just enough of the original episode intact so you can hear how far the show has come over the course of a decade.
