Our Chances at Immortality - IN A LONELY PLACE (1950)
Armed with the shadows of post-war America and perhaps its greatest star in Humphrey Bogart, director Nicholas Ray chronicles the unraveling of "movie magic" and romance in his 1950 tour-de-force! It may not join the ranks of the polychromous widescreen tragedies he carved his name in cinema history with, but its aesthetic calling cards only serve to strengthen its exploration of the male psyche, our participation in the moral occult, and the small distances between fact and fiction. Join your hosts as they return from hiatus (we're so back Dollybros!), and investigate the cinematographic excellence, narrative structure, and immortal performances of Hollywood's yesteryear in this week's episode!
