The Divorce of Lady X (Episode 238) - Hot Date with Dan and Vicky

Merle Oberon, star of 1938's The Divorce of Lady X, had been involved in a car accident before shooting that left her face scarred.  The comedy with co-star Laurence Olivier was partially filmed in color to cover up and mask the recent plastic surgery she'd undergone.  The film was also a bit of a departure for Oberon who was known mostly for dramatic roles (The Dark Angel, The Private Life of Henry VIII and Wuthering Heights).  The Divorce of Lady X also has scene stealing turns from Ralph Richardson, Binnie Barnes and Morton Selten. Dan and Vicky discuss the classic British comedy along with a lot of recently seen like Leviticus, Disclosure Day, Moana, Queens of the Dead, Supergirl and The Invite.  Our socials:  Hot Date Podcast website FB:  Hot Date Podcast Insta:  hotdatepod
