Description

We continue Mike White March with a film that not only nabbed its lead an Academy Award but also features a wild opening that has to be seen to be believed: The Divorcee. Starring Norma Shearer as the titular divorcee, she spends the film falling in and out of love with her husband and bevy of would-be callers. It's a film that straddles the line between drama, comedy, and pre-code era euphemisms with ease, even if the ending is a bit disappointing. The Projection Booth's Mike White and Scary Stories We Tell's Jess Byard join Chris to talk all about the film, Shearer's performance, and its bizarre ending. You can follow Chris Stachiw at @Casualty_Chris and the Kulturecast @kulturecast. You can also subscribe to the Kulturecast on iTunes here.
