Deze podcast duikt in het Hollywood van de jaren 1950, het epicentrum van een culturele transformatie die elk aspect van het Amerikaanse leven op zijn kop zou zetten. Een bioscoop in elke stad, een televisie in elke woonkamer en een naoorlogs Amerika vastbesloten om gelukkig te zijn tegen elke prijs. Maar ook tijdens deze periode… een reeks vroegtijdige sterfgevallen in Hollywood. De regels van het spel voor de komende zeventig jaar werden in realtime geschreven, en niet iedereen zou het overleven. Dit is het verhaal van hoe Hollywood ons een nieuwe Amerikaanse Droom verkocht en een paar ongelukkige sterren achterliet met de gebakken peren.
We’re getting into 1950s Hollywood, ground zero for a cultural transformation that would upend every aspect of Americans’ lives. A movie theater in every city, a TV in every living room, and a Post-war America determined to be happy at any cost. Also during this period… a slew of untimely Hollywood deaths.
The rules of the road for the next seventy years were being written in real-time, and not everyone would make it out alive. This is the story of how Hollywood sold us on a new American Dream, and left a few unlucky stars holding the bag.
