The Female Movie Stars of 1920s Hollywood
The Exploress - Un pódcast de Kate J. Armstrong, Carly A. Quinn
Mary Pickford. Clara Bow. Gloria Swanson. Joan Crawford. Greta Garbo. Let’s travel back in time to learn more about the legendary female movie stars behind the most popular silent films of the 1920s. We’ll discuss the controlling Hollywood studio machine, glamorous movie palaces, obsessive fandoms, the Max Factor makeup brand, the dark side of celebrity and fame, the flapper and the vamp archetypes, and of course, the rise of the It Girl. You can buy my ladycentric timelines, maps, and art prints at the Exploress shop. Also, did you know: I’ve got a novel out! NIGHTBIRDS is a 1920s-tinted fantasy about girls who will gift their magic with a kiss...for a price. I think you might just like it. You'll find show notes for this episode at my Exploress website.
