Gender Roles from 1940s Hollywood","description":"<p>A week under the weather had Dara running for the comfort of old Hollywood classics. In this episode, he reports his findings.</p><p><br></p><p>Influenced by the spooky season, he reached for a couple of Hitchcock staples of the older variety - 1940's Rebecca and 1941's Suspicion. Two very different but no less complicated love stories, one featuring espionage and seduction, the other - gulp! - murder!</p><p><br></p><p>He followed those with something altogether frothier - George Stevens's Woman of the Year (1942), the film that saw the first pairing of Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn. On screen sparring partners and off-screen lovers, the sparks fly as they first made movie magic.</p><p><br></p><p>Dara reflects on the gender roles permitted to female stars of the day and what would happen to them if they didn't conform to type.</p><p><br></p><p>Two Netflix productions are also reviewed - Black Rabbit starring Jude Law and Jason Bateman as errant brothers, and Kathryn Bigelow's latest nailbiter, A House of Dynamite. </p><p><br></p><p><strong>Website: </strong><a href=\"https://theclearout.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>https://theclearout.com/</strong></a></p><p><strong>Facebook: </strong><a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/theclearoutpodcast/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>https://www.facebook.com/theclearoutpodcast/</strong></a></p><p><strong>Instagram: </strong><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/theclearoutpodcast/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>https://www.instagram.com/theclearoutpodcast/</strong></a></p><p><strong>YouTube: </strong><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHntwBqp4b_MY50H08bjNtQ\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>The ClearOut Podcast</strong></a></p><p><strong>Email: </strong><a href=\"mailto:theclearoutlive@gmail.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>theclearoutlive@gmail.com</strong></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Patreon</strong>: <a href=\"https://www.patreon.com/theclearout\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>https://www.patreon.com/theclearout</strong></a></p>","author_name":"Dara Clear"}
