Truth or Dare is 30 - & Dirty‪?‬ Show Your Work

    • TV & Film

Unbelievably, the best-ever 'concert' film - actually an intimate (if highly-produced) diary of Madonna at Peak Superstar -- is 30 years old. We discuss how it shaped a generation, what still resonates decades later, Madonna's strategic exhibition and exploitation of other people's stories (and the parts that were clearly not calculated), and why it marks a turning point for the way gay culture was seen in media. We also touch on the specific shame of our specific geographic connection to Truth or Dare's most embarrassing plotline... 
Join us each week as Duana and Lainey deep dive into work behind the gossip, the shows, the scripts, and the screenplays. From casting decisions to image management to the process of putting an idea onto the stage or the big screen, 'Show Your Work' is a film or theatre geek's essential weekly listen. Tune in weekly and let us know your thoughts at @laineygossip and @duanaelise on Twitter.
