CLASSICS-The Bad and the Beautiful

Front Row Classics is taking a look at one of greatest Hollywood films about Hollywood ever made. Brandon welcomes back April Clemmer to discuss 1952's The Bad and the Beautiful. Vincente Minnelli's glamourous and cynical take on the movie business still packs a punch today. Brandon and April consider the performances of Lana Turner and Kirk Douglas as two of the best performances in their careers. They also discuss the amazing supporting cast including Walter Pidgeon, Dick Powell, Gilbert Roland and Gloria Grahame (in one of the shortest Oscar winning performances on record).
