Another Kind Of Distance: A Time Travel, Twin Peaks, Film, Doom Patrol And Nostalgia Podcast

In our penultimate Dorothy McGuire Acteurist Oeuvre-view episode, another pair of films in which only one of McGuire's "mother roles" affords her a dramatic opportunity. Find out which is which, between Delmer Daves' Susan Slade (1961) and Disney's Summer Magic (1963). We also discuss stealth soap opera radicalism, compare Disney and Vincente Minnelli's approaches to femininity as a construct, and argue for the surprising distinctiveness of early 60s kewpie doll blonde heroines. As a bonus, Dave comes to the end of his patience with Bosley Crowther. And in Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto, we attend a sold-out screening of Scorsese's After Hours, which we analyze as the ultimate scapegoat movie.  P.S. We forgot to read the Leonard Maltin capsule reviews this time! Sorry, Leonard - we'll never do it again!    Time Codes: 0h 00m 45s:    SUSAN SLADE (1961) [dir.
