Youth and Suicide in American Film

Steven Jay Rubin’s Saturday Night At The Movies

This week Steve interviews filmmaker David Lee Miller and author Alessandra Seggi, who has written the important book "Youth and Suicide in American Film." Together they discuss the history of how suicide has been featured in our cinema history, dating back to "It's a Wonderful Life," "Rebel Without a Cause," and including Miller's game changing teen dramedy "My Suicide," which was recently renewed for five more years by Netflix.
