"SIBLING RIVALRY - PART TWO" (09)

As we continue our exploration of famous siblings who thrived during the Golden Era of Hollywood, we’ll discover that you are definitely not your brother’s keeper, especially when we discuss the lives, careers, and relationship of a famous film noir actor and his movie star beefcake brother. We’ll also discuss a couple of brassy blonde comediennes who ruled the silver screen in the 1930s and 40s and a pair of beautiful and talented Italian sisters who took Hollywood by storm in the 1950s, but who had very different outcomes.
