if you are looking for entertainment that you can consume without leaving the house, here is a full list of the films we& #39;ve discussed on @rememberthispod: http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/film-club ">https://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/film-club...
Every afternoon that I can, I& #39;ll highlight one available for streaming on this thread.

Let& #39;s start with CAT PEOPLE (1942), one of the greatest ever Hollywood films about fear of the other, and the kind of mindset that leads to terms like "foreign virus". It& #39;s on:

And if you watch this and want MOAR CAT PEOPLE, the Paul Schrader version is also on all of the streaming sites.
Going to do two recommendations today, one which some people will probably say is "not classic enough," and another which is only available to stream unofficially/uncommercially...
1: Very early on, I did an episode of @rememberthispod about Frances Farmer. None of Farmer& #39;s movies are available for streaming, but FRANCES, starring Jessica Lange, is: https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/frances/id359012061
https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/... href=" https://play.google.com/store/movies/details?id=Huq6Fx_s4q4">https://play.google.com/store/mov... https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B00CUYGNGO/ref=atv_dl_rdr">https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/...
The episode ( https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/stitcher/you-must-remember-this/e/45778174?autoplay=true)">https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/s... explains that this dramatization of Farmer& #39;s life is extremely problematic in terms of propagating mythology but...Jessica Lange is really good in it? And Sam Shepard is super hot? It& #39;s a comfort watch for me, so it seems worth a rec.
Film #2 is OUTRAGE directed by Ida Lupino. It is a *true* outrage that this movie is not available by legal/commercial means. You can watch a pretty good dub of it on a major free streaming site. I don& #39;t want to link to it because I don& #39;t want the stream to disappear. But...
...this movie, about a young woman who is sexually assaulted and then has to figure out how to go on living with PTSD, is Lupino& #39;s directorial masterpiece.
(Here& #39;s the @RememberThisPod episode about Lupino: http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/youmustrememberthispodcastblog/the-many-loves-of-howard-hughes-part-2-the-many?rq=ida%20lupino.">https://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/... I also write more extensively about her in SEDUCTION, which you can buy on eBook or audiobook: https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780062440518)">https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780...
Today’s rec, A Place in the Sun, features my favorite performance from young Elizabeth Taylor. It is a devastating romantic tragedy about capitalism. Watch it on @criterionchannl, as well as virtually every other streaming platform
Here’s the @RememberThisPod episode that deals with the movie, as well as the on-screen pairings and deep friendship of Taylor and Montgomery Clift http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/youmustrememberthispodcastblog/ymrt-20-liz">https://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/...
Today& #39;s movie is NOTHING SACRED, probably my favorite screwball comedy, and also an oddity of early Technicolor. Find it on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/57202/nothing_sacred?utm_source=google-feed&tracking=google-feed
And">https://tubitv.com/movies/57... Prime Video: https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B01DRZ09I2/ref=atv_dl_rdr">https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/...

And here& #39;s the Carole Lombard/Clark Gable episode of @RememberThisPod, otherwise known as The Episode in Which Karina Audibly Cries: http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/youmustrememberthispodcastblog/2015/1/13/star-wars-episode-ii-carole-lombard-and-clark-gable-ymrt-28">https://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/...
I was supposed to go to NY to sign books at a screening of MACAO at the Alamo tonight. The good news is, you can still watch MACAO tonight! https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B083NFZHL4/ref=atv_dl_rdr">https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/... https://play.google.com/store/movies/details?id=lZ2gEid_lRw">https://play.google.com/store/mov...
This screening was pegged to my book SEDUCTION, which you can order signed copies of from @skylightbooks, but
I did an @rememberthispod episode about Jane Russell way back in 2014: http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/youmustrememberthispodcastblog/ymrt-18-the-many-loves-of-howard-hughes-chapter
Here">https://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/... is what I wrote for the Alamo screening description.

The film I want to watch myself today is A Foreign Affair, the quasi rom-com Billy Wilder shot in the ruins of Berlin after WWII. It doesn& #39;t seem to be streaming, although you can order it on blu/dvd. Here& #39;s the @RememberThisPod on Marlene Dietrich at war: http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/youmustrememberthispodcastblog/2015/2/10/star-wars-episode-vi-marlene-dietrich-at-war-ymrt-32">https://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/...
But if you want to stream Marlene right away, The Blue Angel is on Prime: https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Angel-Emil-Jannings/dp/B07JLCMD31/ref=sr_1_13?keywords=Marlene+Dietrich&qid=1584641647&s=movies-tv&sr=1-13">https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Ange...
Tonight& #39;s rec: A Guy Called Joe, because we could all use a mildly insane wartime romantic fantasy, no? Starring Irene Dunne, Spencer Tracy and, in his first major role, Van Johnson. It& #39;s on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/a-guy-named-joe/id930738384
And">https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/... Prime: https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B00WYX0L4G/ref=atv_dl_rdr">https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/...

And here& #39;s our @rememberthispod ep on Van Johnson, the "boy next door" star whose need to stay in the closet led him to steal his best friend& #39;s wife: http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/youmustrememberthispodcastblog/2015/4/28/star-wars-episode-xvi-van-johnson">https://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/...
Ugh, obviously the title of the movie is A Guy NAMED Joe. Sorry.
Today& #39;s rec is not one we& #39;ve discussed on @rememberthispod, but it is featured in my book SEDUCTION and it& #39;s leaving @criterionchannl in a week: COME BACK LITTLE SHEBA, one of the quintessential middle-America sexual repression dramas of the 50s...
...starring Burt Lancaster as an aging-extremely-sexily man in a sexless marriage, and Terry Moore (Howard Hughes inamorata, nominated for an Oscar for this performance) as the college girl who comes to live in his house: https://www.criterionchannel.com/come-back-little-sheba">https://www.criterionchannel.com/come-back...
Tonight, watch The American Dreamer, L. M. Kit Carson and Lawrence Schiller& #39;s portrait of Dennis Hopper& #39;s post-Easy Rider time off the grid, working on The Last Movie. This movie used to be pretty difficult to find but now you can rent it from YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LI8RIHVJg8">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
We talked about this film in the season finale of Charles Manson& #39;s Hollywood: http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/youmustrememberthispodcastblog/2015/8/11/charles-mansons-holllywood-12-the-manson-family-on-trial">https://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/...
Today& #39;s rec: alleviate your anxiety by sinking into a different era& #39;s anxiety du jour! Watch TARGETS, about the birth of senseless mass shootings, on @criterionchannl, or itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/targets/id300913163">https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/...
And listen to our episode about it from our Bela & Boris series, featuring @pattonoswalt as Boris Karloff! http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/2017/11/20/bela-and-boris-episode-6-boris-karloff-and-roger-corman">https://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/...
Today I feel like watching a Linda Darnell film. I’m going to try to find one I haven’t seen, but you should watch Letter to Three Wives: https://youtu.be/dErl25oaPSA
We">https://youtu.be/dErl25oaP... told Linda’s sad story on @rememberthispod back in 2018: http://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/2018/11/5/linda-darnell-the-seduced-episode-4">https://www.youmustrememberthispodcast.com/episodes/...

I& #39;ve been slacking on this thread because I& #39;ve been really busy working on the new season of @rememberthispod. Pandemic willing, it will debut on May 26. It& #39;s really different from previous seasons, in that it involves me interviewing a lot of people. I hope you like it!
