Q-Balls! This week we looked at the 1944 psychological thriller, GASLIGHT. If you've ever wondered what the supposed origin of the ubiquitous term was, you should check out this movie. It's got a great cast and wonderful cinematography. As per, Q and I have a somewhat lengthy Christina & Quinn chat. If you'd like to jump to the discussion of the film, that starts around minute 19:02. We talked about CITIZEN KANE in Quinnisode 31 We talked about SHADOW OF A DOUBT in Quinnisode 14 We talked about REBECCA in Quinnisode 86, and We talked about WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE (which I am sure we will talk a lot more about next time), in Quinnisode 20 We talked about the goddess that is Angela Lansbury on Episode 99. Stuff we talked about on the podcast: $500 in 1944 dollars is about $8668 US dollars today. According to The Mayo Clinic "Mental Health Crisis" has largely supplanted the term "Nervous Breakdown".

The story about Orson Welles & Joseph Cotten From Wikipedia, via Cotten's autobiography, Vanity Will Get You Somewhere On June 8, 1981, Cotten experienced a heart attack followed by a stroke that affected his brain's speech center. He began years of therapy which in time made it possible for him to speak again. As he began to recover, he and Orson Welles talked on the phone each week for a couple of hours. "He was strong and supportive", Cotten wrote, "and whenever I used the wrong word (which was frequently) he would say, 'That's a much better word, Jo, I'm going to use it.'" He and Welles would meet for lunch and reminisce. When Cotten announced he had written a book, Welles asked for the manuscript and read it that night (Cotten, Joseph (1987). Vanity Will Get You Somewhere. San Francisco: Mercury House. ISBN 0-916515-17-6). Welles died seven years before Cotten's death.
