The
Literary License Podcast: Book to Screen and Everything In-Between invites
guests to read an original book and compare it to the original film.
https://www.llpodcast.com/ Two years ago, I was on to discuss The Witches of
Eastwick and I was so happy to be invited back to reunite with Keith and Vickie
Rae.
Last
week, I was part of a lively discussion about Oscar Wilde's "The Picture
of Dorian Gray" and the 1945 movie starring George Sanders, Hurd Hatfield
(the ever-youthful but creepy Dorian Gray), Donna Reed (looking gorgeous) and
an impossibly young Angela Lansbury--yes, she does sing in the movie. Did you
know she's 95 years old? What a national treasure!
The
portraits in this black and white movie are the only things that have color.
Nice effect! They were real paintings commissioned for the movie and the
handsome version of Dorian sold for $149,000.00 in 2015! The macabre portrait
is owned by The Art Institute of Chicago.
If
you want to enjoy our fun discussion about Dorian Gray from book to screen,

In
June, I will join the podcast again to discuss Season 2, episodes 1 – 4
of Bewitched. Can't wait! :-D
