TW: mentions of suicide
Audrey and Louise kick off the Mysterious Men and Peculiar Deaths theme with Old Hollywood actor George Reeves. We discuss the films of his we've seen along with the 2006 movie Hollywoodland, starring Ben Affleck as Reeves. Other topics include our favorite character of Reeves' and why we were surprised by his range as an actor, how playing Superman impacted his career and what Hollywoodland got wrong about his feelings towards the role, complicated figures in Reeves' life such as Toni Mannix and Leonore Lemmon (and thoughts on the portrayals of them in the film), characters we would like to have seen George play, and much more.
