Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

Today’s blogpost feature is a preview of Thursday’s podcast about Tarantino’s 2019 film.  Tom Lisanti and Shaun Chang, who profiled Carol Lynley in our podcast in October will be the guests.

There are a number of fascinating themes we will explore some of which key off the Lynley episode.  In particular, how actors and actresses doggedly pursue working careers in the film industry, throughout long careers.

1969, the year the film takes place, marked the end of the tumultuous 1960s decade, though not the end of the cultural revolution that was unleashed. 

So plan to join Tom Lisanti and Shaun Chang as they unpack the significant themes of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood in our November 4 podcast.
