S01 E32 Revisit a special moment with us as we relive Tony's second appearance on Brad's podcast, "Queer We Are," a conversation so rich we like to think of it as the "lost pilot" of our own show, "Going Hollywood." We discuss Tony's new documentary, "Cary Grant: The Man He Dreamed of Being" and celebrate this icon from Hollywood's golden age. We navigate the tricky waters of discussing historical figures with a focus on accuracy, steering clear of rumors and emphasizing Grant's work over speculation about his personal life. Our discussion takes a turn towards identity fluidity, connecting the dots between the past and the present, and drawing parallels with other legends like Katharine Hepburn.
Get an insider's peek into the world of Hollywood gossip with a spotlight on the formidable Hedda Hopper, whose influence could make or break a star's career. We also discuss the transformative power of Billy Wilder's "Sunset Boulevard," a masterpiece that critiques Hollywood while evolving into a campy classic over time. Our conversation doesn't stop there; we also reflect on the modern allure of stars like Brad Pitt and Paul Rudd, whose charisma and strong relationships keep them in the limelight, regardless of box office numbers. The complexities of the Oscars and Hollywood's handling of controversial stories, such as the adaptation of Truman Capote's "Breakfast at Tiffany's," further enrich our discussion. As we share anecdotes of Hollywood legends and muse on classic films, we invite you to join us for a lively and insightful journey through Tinseltown's past and present.
