Hollywood Studios Year-by-Year RKO 1942: THE MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS & CAT PEOPLE
Our 1942 RKO episode is a very special one, with films by two of the studio's outstanding auteurs, writer-producer-director Orson Welles, and B-horror unit producer Val Lewton. First, we look at Orson Welles' mutilated (some even say "emasculated"!) masterpiece,\xa0The\xa0Magnificent Ambersons, exploring the movie's extraordinary characters and performances and giving our opinion of the ending imposed by the studio. Then we turn to Val Lewton's first production for RKO's horror unit,\xa0Cat People, grappling with its metaphors and digging into its unusual love triangle. And then, in Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto, we discuss an adjacent film,\xa0Bell, Book and Candle, in which Kim Novak's slinky witch falls for normo Jimmy Stewart - but with a very different outcome. Join us as we look at some very\xa0lonely people who make some very bad decisions!\xa0
