Over deze podcast
Redemption arcs abound in this feminist-driven history-of-women-in-film-and-television podcast. Part film history, part cultural critique, and heavy with bejeweled gowns, I explore the intersections between fame, glamour, fashion, and film. And the role they have played in constructing and influencing American culture throughout the last 100 years.
