b'October 24, 2022 - Something special this week for the season of pumpkins, ghosts, and Candy Corn: A YouTube feature on what Hollywood gets right and wrong about yesterday called History Author Showtime.\\n\\nIt\\u2019s a video breakdown of the 1975 movie, \\u201cThe Legend of Lizzie Borden,\\u201d starring Elizabeth Montgomery, who you may remember as Samantha Stevens from \\u201cBewitched.\\u201d I often ask authors what they think of the film or TV portrayals of the past, and for this week, I pulled some soundbites from Cara Robertson, who I interviewed about her book, \\u201cThe Trial of Lizzie Borden.\\u201d\\n\\n\\u201cThe Legend of Lizzie Borden\\u201d was her favorite portrayal of the tried-but-not-convicted alleged murderess. I\\u2019ve previously published Showtime breakdowns of AMC\\u2019s \\u201cThe Americans,\\u201d which featured former KGB agent Jack Barsky, who I interviewed about his book, \\u201cDeep Under Cover. My Secret Life & tangled Allegiances as a KGB Spy in America.\\u201d\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\n\\nI also covered \\u201cThe Dummy,\\u201d a 1962 episode of The Twilight Zone. Anne Serling, author of \\u201cAs I Knew Him: My Dad Rod Serling\\u201d had a surprising and amusing recollection of the infamous ventriloquist dummy used in show that I just felt deserved to be highlighted.\\n\\n\\ufeff\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\nThank you for subscribing at YouTube.com/@historyauthorshow to support more time travel adventures.'
