For nearly eight decades, Elizabeth Short's name, and the moniker “The Black Dahlia”. Has inspired countless books, films, television shows, and theories. But in the process, the real woman behind the legend has often been overshadowed by sensationalism, myths, and misinformation.In this episode, we revisit the most persistent theories surrounding her murder, including the widely publicized, but deeply controversial claims of the so-called “Black Dahlia Avenger” and retired LAPD detective Steve Hodel's accusations against his father, Dr. George Hodel. We also introduce listeners to the thoughtful, evidence-based perspective offered by author William J. Mann in his forthcoming book, Black Dahlia: Murder, Monsters, and Madness in Midcentury Hollywood (releasing January 26, 2026). Mann's work offers a grounded theory that avoids conspiracies and centers on the real circumstances of Elizabeth Short's life.Then, we turn inward to consider what the evidence and Beth's own history suggest about the most likely scenarios behind her tragic death. This episode aims to give her her story back.About This SeriesBROKEN: The Black Dahlia Murder is a six-part Once Upon a Crime original series.

The filmmaker Noah Baumbach can recall when he may have fallen out of love with his craft. He was shooting “White Noise,” based on Don DeLillo's novel, “on a deserted highway in Ohio at 4 A.M. with a rain machine.”  “Oh, God, I don't know that I like doing this,” he recalls thinking. “Am I doing this”—making movies—“only because I do it?” He channelled that angst into his new film “Jay Kelly,” a Hollywood comedy of manners starring George Clooney as a very famous movie star who suddenly wonders whether it was all worth it, and why people keep offering him cheesecake. In October, Baumbach spoke with The New Yorker's articles editor, Susan Morrison, at The New Yorker Festival about working with his wife, Greta Gerwig, on “Barbie,” and why the first lines of his movies can tell you everything.  New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday.

Are you feeling stuck in a career you find meaningless, wondering if you'll ever find your true calling? This week on Everyday Better, Leah Smart sits down with Sister Monica Clare — an Episcopal nun, spiritual counselor, and the creator behind the TikTok account @nunsenseforthepeople. Her path to the convent was anything but direct. For decades, she chased one career after another in Hollywood — acting, advertising, comedy, PR — all while ignoring the quiet truth she'd known since childhood: her true calling was to become a nun. In this powerful conversation, Sister Monica shares how she learned to stop listening to the world around her and finally start listening to herself. She opens up about the values exercise that changed everything, the somatic signals that told her she was on the wrong path, and why “plan A” doesn't have to mean certainty — just courage. Together, she and Leah explore how any of us can uncover our calling, navigate fear, build self-esteem, and make meaningful changes one small step at a time. If you've ever wondered whether you're on the right path — or worried that you're not — this episode will help you reframe failure, tune into what moves your heart, and get clearer on the life you're truly meant to live. You can find her book ”A Change of Habit: Leaving Behind My Husband, Career, and Everything I Owned to Become a Nun” here.

The Heat take down the Clippers as Spoelstra's system fires on all cylinders, and the Patriots grab a win on Monday Night Football. Joe and Hollywood dive into the Dolphins next, reacting to Mike McDaniel's latest soundbite while breaking down Tua Tagovailoa's continued struggles — even as De'Von Achane plays like the team's MVP and the defense keeps improving. They highlight how Miami keeps winning in spite of Tua, leading to a bigger conversation about the franchise's decline from the glory days of '72 and the playoff success of the '80s to 25 years without a postseason win: “I never thought it'd get to this point.” The hour wraps with thoughts on Lane Kiffin — from being called an “assclown” to the latest twists in his move to LSU.

Hollywood's Headlines includes NFL RedZone ramping up to 16 commercials, Dillon Gabriel's girlfriend taking a shot at the Cleveland Browns, and Eagles OC Kevin Patullo's house getting egged. Guy Fieri suffers a serious stair injury, a Batman rookie card auctions for over $78k, and a Jordan and Kobe dual Logoman card is expected to sell for more than $3 million

Joe and Hollywood react to Mike McDaniel's latest soundbite as the conversation zeros in on Tua Tagovailoa's continued struggles — even as De'Von Achane emerges as the Dolphins' MVP and the defense keeps trending upward. Despite the wins, they argue that Tua's play simply hasn't been good enough, noting the team has been able to survive in spite of his performances. The segment also highlights Miami's long-running postseason drought, contrasting past glory — from the undefeated 1972 team to the playoff success of the '80s — with the stunning reality of no playoff wins in 25 years, summed up by the line: “I'd never thought it'd get to this point.”

Joe and Hollywood highlight how many Dolphins players are stepping up as the defense continues its full transformation into a strength. But the conversation shifts to Tua Tagovailoa's inability to run, a growing frustration when compared to mobile stars like Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, Jaxson Dart, and Lamar Jackson. Despite those limitations, Joe still believes Tua will be Miami's starting quarterback next season — for better or worse.

Joe and Hollywood break down the Dolphins' surge, highlighting a transformed defense and standout performances across the roster. But Tua Tagovailoa's inability to run remains a major frustration, especially compared to mobile quarterbacks like Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, Jaxson Dart, and Lamar Jackson — yet Joe expects him to start next season. The conversation shifts to college football as Joe weighs in on Ole Miss' situation, Kiffin's move to LSU, and why he shouldn't coach the Rebels in the CFP. Hollywood's Headlines rounds out the hour, covering NFL RedZone's 16 commercials, Dillon Gabriel's girlfriend taking shots at the Browns, Kevin Patullo's house getting egged, Guy Fieri's serious injury, and high-dollar sports card auctions including Batman, Jordan, and Kobe collectibles.

Meghan and Miranda are back from Thanksgiving and diving straight into the deep end. CNN's Scott Jennings joins from the University of Virginia to talk about his new book A Revolution of Common Sense, what Trump 2.0 is really like behind the scenes, and how he survives as a lone conservative voice on CNN's nightly debate show. They also unpack his now-viral on-air clash with Dylan Douglas (yes, the son of Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas) and the gossip reports that the Hollywood power couple tried to blacklist CNN afterward. Plus: JD Vance 2028, Cory Booker's wedding strategy theory, and Trump's slipping approval rating. Then Meghan opens up about the National Guard shooting in DC and a massive Somali social-services fraud scandal in Minnesota, and why both have radically shifted her views on immigration and security. She calls for Governor Tim Walz to resign and explains why she refuses to let America “turn into the U.K.” In the back half, it's the debut of “Mile High Meltdown.” The ladies react to Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy scolding Americans for wearing pajamas on planes, women getting kicked off flights for booty shorts and crop tops, and passengers bounced over obscene anti-Trump and pro-Trump shirts. Why airports abide by "Vegas Rules,” whether sweatpants can be classy, and why kindness to flight attendants and TSA should be non-negotiable. Plus: Quince and Cozy Earth Cyber Monday obsessions, bougie sheets that ruin you for all other bedding, and Miranda's rule that bare butts and airplane seats should never meet.

Tinseltown's most notorious pimp was convicted of providing high-class ‘call girls' to undercover police officers on 2nd December, 1994. It followed a dramatic sting involving the LAPD, the Beverly Hills police department, the state alcoholic beverage control agency and the state attorney General's office. They seized her ‘little black book' (actually a red Gucci diary) full of high-profile names, but the only celebrity client of hers that testified was Charlie Sheen. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider whether Fleiss' own desire for profile was part of her undoing; explain how she had unseated ‘Madam Alex' from the top of the tree; and reveal the role of Travellers Cheques in her most famous client's downfall… There was a surprising next chapter to Fleiss' career - as a carer for parrots - which we discuss in today's bonus bit, only available for supporters of the show.

Everybody loves a good origin story, but not every story is worth retelling. The real skill is knowing when to evolve, not repeat.That's the lesson of Andor, the Star Wars series that turned subtle storytelling into a strategy for lasting relevance. In this episode, we explore its B2B marketing takeaways with the help of our special guest Rachel Sterling, CMO of Identity Digital. Together, we break down what B2B marketers can learn from spotting product fatigue early, tailoring stories for evolving audiences, and creating content that sparks conversation, not just clicks.About our guest, Rachel SterlingRachel Sterling serves as Chief Marketing Officer where she is focused on expanding Identity Digital's impact on driving awareness and adoption of our top level domain portfolio. Prior to joining Identity Digital, Rachel held senior leadership positions at Proximie, Instagram, Twitter, and Google where she developed impactful strategies around product, integrated, content, and event marketing.Rachel also possesses a creative background, spending the first eight years of her career working in TV production and post-production. Rachel lives in Belmont, CA with her husband and two children.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Andor:Recognize when the story has run its course. Just like Disney realized Luke Skywalker's arc had reached its limits, Rachel ties that lesson to brand fatigue. Audiences, like customers, eventually want something new. As she puts it: “Their main characters had been exhausted… you have to consistently monitor for user sentiment.” Andor worked because it didn't cling to nostalgia; it built from a blank slate. In B2B, that means knowing when your message or product line has hit its ceiling and having the courage to reinvent before your audience tunes out.Segment for meaning, not just demographics. Disney didn't make Andor for everyone. It made it for the fans who grew up with A New Hope. Rachel explains: “By exploring more mature themes, you're building content specifically for the core audience that had been there since the very beginning.” The same rule applies in B2B. As your audience evolves, so should your tone, themes, and depth. Mature buyers crave nuance; new ones need accessibility. Build the right story for the right segment, and you'll meet each generation where they are, not where they were.Make content that talks back. Rachel points out that Andor isn't a passive show. It demands engagement long after the credits roll. As she says: “Content no longer exists in a passive experience… The sign of a good show is when you can engage in conversation beyond just a simple, ‘that was good.'” In B2B, the same holds true. The best content doesn't just get attention; it gets people talking, sharing, and connecting around a shared idea. Don't settle for applause, aim for conversation that keeps your brand in motion.Quote“Just because you feel affinity for the product does not mean that people will continue to share that affinity. I definitely think that marketers, from seeing the decision that Disney made to Greenlight Andor, can take away the message [to] understand when you have product fatigue.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Rachel Sterling, Chief Marketing Officer at Identity Digital[01:51] Why Andor?[03:36] The Role of CMO at Identity Digital[04:45] What is Andor?[22:32] B2B Marketing Lessons from Andor[42:14] Identity Digital's Brand and Content Strategy[45:52] Advice for First-Time CMOs[48:27] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Rachel on LinkedInLearn more about Identity DigitalAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Meridith Baer grew up on the grounds of San Quentin prison, acted in TV and movies, wrote scripts in Hollywood … and then, at 50, started over – and built one of the best known home-staging companies in real estate.Meridith's life unfolds like a movie: As a teenager, she was forced to give up her baby for adoption. In her twenties, she was a writer for Penthouse. In her thirties and forties, she was a screenwriter in Hollywood, hobnobbing with Sally Field and dating Patrick Stewart.But in her late forties, Meridith hit a wall. Her writing career stalled, so she poured her energy into fixing up the house she was renting. When the owner sold that house almost immediately, she stumbled onto a strange new idea: why not stage homes for a living?From there, Meridith turned a few pieces of thrift-store furniture and potted plants into a full-blown business: trucks, warehouses, hundreds of employees, and high-end homes across Los Angeles, New York, Miami, and beyond. Along the way, she weathered the pressures of scaling a creative service into an operational machine—without ever raising outside capital.What you'll learn:How to reshape a career at 50 (or any age) without a master planHow Meridith priced her work based on value created, not hours workedWhy you don't always need investors to grow a multi-million-dollar service businessThe psychology of home staging: designing spaces that make buyers fall in love in the first 10 secondsHow Meridith thinks about legacy, stepping back, and seizing new opportunitiesTimestamps: 06:08 – Growing up as a warden's daughter inside San Quentin11:01 – Teen pregnancy, forced adoption, and reunion decades later12:43 – From Pepsi commercials to Penthouse magazine19:58 – Selling a major movie script, recoiling at the finished product22:47 – How a breakup with Patrick Stewart totally reshaped Meridith's life27:41 – The accidental first staging job at age 5035:17 – Early days of the business: vans, day laborers from Home Depot, and naming her price47:18 – Unexpected struggles: tax trouble, a cancer diagnosis51:07 – The business expands to New York and beyond1:00:22 – Running a 320-person company at 78—and what comes next1:05:56 – Small Business SpotlightThis episode was produced by Alex Cheng, with music by Ramtin Arablouei.

Who killed the Black Dahlia? In this eye-opening shocker,  award-winning producer, true-crime researcher, and Hollywood insider Eli Frankel finally solves the greatest-and most gruesome-murder mystery of the twentieth century just before its 80th anniversary.In January 1947, the bisected body of Elizabeth Short, completely drained of blood, was discovered in an undeveloped lot in Los Angeles. Its gruesome mutilations led to a firestorm of publicity, city-wide panic, and an unprecedented number of investigative paths led by the LAPD—all dead ends. The Black Dahlia murder remained an unsolved mystery for over seventy years.Six years earlier and sixteen hundred miles away, another woman's life had ended in a similarly horrific manner. Leila Welsh was an ambitious, educated, popular, and socially connected beauty. Though raised modestly on a prairie farm, she was heiress to her Kansas City family's status and wealth. On a winter morning in 1941, Leila's butchered body was found in her bedroom bearing the marks of unspeakable trauma.One victim faded into obscurity. The other became notorious. Both had in common a killer whose sadistic mind was a labyrinth of dark secrets.Eli Frankel reveals for the first time a key fact about the Black Dahlia crime scene, never before shared with the public, that leads inexorably to the stunning identification of a criminal who was at the same time amateurish and fiendish, skilled and lucky, sophisticated and brutish. Drawing on newly discovered documents, law enforcement files, interviews with the last surviving participants, the victims' own letters, trial transcripts, military records, and more, this epic true-crime saga puts together the missing pieces of a legendary puzzle.In Sisters in Death, the Black Dahlia cold case is finally closed. SISTERS IN DEATH: The Black Dahlia, the Prairie Heiress, and Their Hunter—Eli Frankel

South Carolina is about to do something it never expected to face: sit in a courtroom and explain whether the most high-profile trial in state history was actually fair. On February 11, 2026, the South Carolina Supreme Court will hear Alex Murdaugh's appeal—an appeal built on allegations that go way beyond legal strategy. We're talking about a court clerk chasing fame, a jury exposed to comments that never should've been made, and a trial that became a six-day spectacle of financial wrongdoing rather than a focused examination of the double homicide at Moselle. Tonight, we break down exactly what this appeal argues, what the state is pushing back with, and why this hearing could change how South Carolina trials are run for years to come—regardless of how anyone feels about Alex Murdaugh personally. We'll walk through the key issues:  • The Becky Hill scandal and the allegation of jury influence  • The flood of financial-crime evidence that may have overwhelmed the murder case  • The questionable investigative shortcuts the defense says were ignored  • What the Supreme Court can actually do—and what each option means  • How this hearing could redefine fairness, prejudice, and courtroom integrity This isn't about whether you like Alex Murdaugh. This is about whether the system followed the rules when everything—from politics to public pressure to Hollywood-level media attention—was pulling it toward a verdict. And with Becky Hill now facing charges of her own, the stakes are suddenly higher than anyone thought. The question now is simple: Will the Supreme Court stand by the original verdict, or step in and declare that the process itself crossed a line? Let's dig into what's coming, what's at risk, and what this appeal really means. #Murdaugh #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughAppeal #Moselle #SouthCarolina #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #LegalAnalysis #CourtIntegrity #BeckyHill Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

EPISODE 116 -  “CLASSIC STAR OF THE MONTH: DICK VAN DYKE” - 12/01/25  Join us as we celebrate the life and career of someone who seemingly personifies joy — on-screen and off.  And maybe that's the secret to his longevity, because he is about to celebrate his 100th birthday on December 13.  Of course, we're talking about the one and only, DICK VAN DYKE, our December Star of the Month. His career spans The Dick Van Dyke Show, Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and beyond. He's danced across rooftops, flipped over ottomans, and shared his personal struggles with alcoholism in order to shine a light on a horrible disease -- at a time when that sort of thing wasn't discussed. From his early years trying to make it in show business, to that breakout moment on Broadway, to becoming one of the most beloved stars on television and film - today, we celebrate the legendary Dick Van Dyke!  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: My Lucky Life in and Out of Show Business (2011), Dick Van Dyke; Columbia Pictures Press Release, (1968), by John C.

You asked - so we answered… Jameela Jamil is back on the podcast. Jameela is an actor and activist - she's unapologetic and she's not afraid of being disliked. There are very few people in Hollywood who speak out so openly, loudly and passionately about social justice, so we spoke to Jameela about why she feels equipped and compelled to speak out, and why others may not do the same… even when they know they should. We also spoke to Jameela about the death of the body positivity movement, the Ozempic Era and her view on celebrities glamourising the return of ultra-thinness as the mainstream beauty ideal.

Whether you're a legal eagle or just curious about how our justice system really works, this episode peels back the layers of a question that's more complicated than it seems. Steve Palmer and law student Troy Henricksen answer the question - should jury deliberations be recorded? This topic was sparked by a thought-provoking listener comment, and they examine whether adding cameras or audio equipment to the deliberation room could help ensure justice, or if it would erode the very foundation of our jury system.Together, they walk through the practical, historical, and ethical implications of such recordings, exploring everything from the psychology of being watched to the slippery slope of judicial oversight. You'll hear about the deep roots of the jury process, why secrecy is considered sacred, and real-world scenarios where recording could have changed outcomes. They even touch on how Hollywood has tackled jury misconduct and why, despite its intrigue, recording deliberations could open a Pandora's box no one wants to confront.Moments00:00 "Judgment, Intervention, and Consequences"05:32 "Studio Syndrome and Self-Consciousness"07:54 "Jury Oversight and Its Impact"11:14 Jury Rights and Misconduct Discussion14:01 "Office Case: Video Evidence"16:19 "Jury Misconduct in 12 Angry Men"Here are 3 key takeaways:Sanctity of Deliberations: Recording jury deliberations would undermine the free, honest exchange we rely on for justice—jurors might perform for the camera, not for the cause of truth.Scope Creep Is Real: Once those recordings exist, it's only a matter of time before someone wants to review, challenge, or legislate over their content. This opens the door to meddling and second-guessing, ultimately weakening the jury's independence.Exceptions vs. The Rule: While egregious misconduct (like bringing outside evidence) does allow for review and intervention, the rare exception shouldn't justify upending centuries-old protections that ensure jury autonomy.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

In most industries, if you've got a solid idea, a few engineers, and a working prototype, you can at least get in the game. Professional sports is not one of those industries. When Jordy Leiser co-founded Jump with Alex Rodriguez and Marc Lore, he wasn't just building software — he was trying to rebuild the entire fan experience from the ground up, in a business dominated by legacy players like Ticketmaster.  Four years later, his company is powering the digital backbone for teams like the Minnesota Timberwolves and North Carolina Courage. In this episode, Jordy explains what it actually takes to break into a closed industry, why he reverse-engineers every funding round before he raises it, and the biggest mistake he refused to repeat as a second-time founder. RUNTIME 53:07 EPISODE BREAKDOWN (1:12) Breaking into pro sports, rebuilding fan experience, and reverse-engineering fundraising. (2:03) How Stella Connect (customer service) laid the foundation for Jump (customer experience for fans). (2:58) What Jump does today: a unified fan experience + data platform for teams. (4:11) The unusual founding plan: 3-4 years of R&D, designed to launch with an NBA franchise from day one. (5:46) Why sports is nothing like building a typical SaaS startup — more like a “car company” level of complexity. (6:48)The true barrier: a near-monopoly in ticketing that stops innovation cold. (7:59) Selling into a market where fans have low expectations — and why demand is obvious but still untapped. (9:54) Early customers as classic early adopters — every team already knows the pain points intimately. (11:25) The first hypothesis they had to kill: incumbents don't want to integrate or share data. At all. (12:32) Designing for the actual fan demographic: season ticket holders skew 50+, so “cutting-edge UX” isn't always the answer. (13:25) Jordy's advice to founders: get out of the building, talk to insiders, but keep your “child's mind.” (15:06) Sports as an industry you can't “hack into” — it works more like fashion or Hollywood. (17:31) Moments when he realized he was losing stakeholders — and why being “comfortable in the uncomfortable” is essential. (18:03) Early would-be partners who backed out, the impact on morale, and what they learned from those rejections. (19:45) Jump's origin as a “dynamic seating” idea — and why they had to build the entire platform instead. (21:03) The “invisible platform” ethos: why Jump melts into the background so teams can own the fan relationship. (23:10) Why NWSL teams and NBA franchises have surprisingly similar needs — and what that taught them about productizing. (24:36) Jordy's litmus test for platform vs. point solution: how many people in the org depend on you to do their job? (27:01) Seed to Series A timeline — and how the Timberwolves sale collapsing delayed everything by a year. (28:37HaHow Jordy processed a crisis that was public, sudden, and existential. (31:13) The Long Beach pier walk: the moment he decided to pivot the GTM to a crawl-walk-run strategy. (32:49) Effectuation theory, the “bird in hand,” and how it led to NCAA → NWSL → Timberwolves as a survival sequence. (34:39) What he had to unlearn from Stella Connect: stop zooming in — zoom way out to a 10–20-year vision. (37:05) The habit he kept: talent above all else — and why his first call was to a Chief People Officer. (38:45) Minimum viable people function for early founders: fractional HR > junior recruiter. (42:58) High performance without grind culture: intensity ≠ toxicity — and why durability matters more than speed. (45:40) Hiring from big tech: what's actually transferable, and the dangers of logo-blindness. (50:55) The one answer Jordy would need from a founder-CEO before he'd join their startup.

Dans les années 1920, Hollywood est encore un Far West artistique et économique. Les studios naissent, meurent, se restructurent, et la Warner Bros… vacille. À cette époque, les frères Warner – Harry, Albert, Sam et Jack – tentent désespérément de s'imposer dans un marché saturé. Leurs productions coûtent cher, rapportent peu, et l'entreprise file tout droit vers la faillite. Et pourtant, leur sauveur n'est ni un producteur visionnaire, ni une star glamour… mais un chien. Un berger allemand nommé Rintintin.Tout commence en 1918, dans les ruines d'un village français ravagé par la Première Guerre mondiale. Un soldat américain du nom de Lee Duncan découvre une femelle berger allemand et ses chiots abandonnés dans un chenil bombardé. Il sauve deux petits, les ramène aux États-Unis, et en dresse un : Rintintin. Très vite, Duncan réalise que le chien a un talent exceptionnel. Il est agile, obéissant, expressif. Et surtout, incroyablement photogénique.En 1922, Hollywood apprend son nom. Rintintin décroche un rôle dans The Man from Hell's River, et c'est un triomphe. Le public, encore marqué par la guerre, se passionne pour ce chien héroïque, symbole de loyauté et de bravoure. Les producteurs de Warner Bros, eux, voient surtout une aubaine.La Warner, à l'époque, est au bord du gouffre. Elle n'a pas les moyens de rivaliser avec les géants comme Paramount ou MGM. Mais elle peut miser sur un phénomène. Rintintin devient donc la star du studio. Entre 1923 et 1930, il tourne près de trente films et remplit les salles à un niveau inattendu. On raconte qu'à certains moments, ses films rapportent jusqu'à la moitié des revenus annuels de la Warner. On le surnomme même « la saucisse à quatre pattes qui nourrit les frères Warner ».Ce succès permet au studio de survivre, puis d'investir dans ce qui deviendra son grand coup stratégique : le cinéma parlant. Sans l'argent généré par Rintintin, la Warner n'aurait probablement pas eu les moyens de produire The Jazz Singer en 1927, le premier film parlant à succès, celui qui transforme l'industrie et propulse le studio au premier rang d'Hollywood.Ainsi, l'histoire est simple mais incroyable : sans un chiot sauvé des décombres de la Grande Guerre, la Warner Bros n'aurait peut-être jamais existé telle que nous la connaissons. Rintintin n'est pas seulement un chien célèbre ; il est littéralement l'un des fondateurs involontaires du cinéma moderne.Un chien a sauvé la Warner… et, d'une certaine façon, l'histoire d'Hollywood tout entière.

Happiest of Thanksgivings, Vintage Sand fans, and welcome to Episode 63, our tribute to the incomparable and quietly brilliant Robert Redford. Consider this. If all the Sundance Kid had given us was a series of memorable and subtly complex performances as an actor in a career spanning half a century, that would have been enough to make him a critically important figure in Hollywood, particularly in that mini-Golden Age of the American New Wave of the 1970's. Had the only thing he given us was two masterpieces ("Ordinary People" and "Quiz Show") and his other often beautiful work as a director, that alone would make him a legend. Had the only thing he done was pave the way for the arrival of nearly every single great American film director of the last four decades through his work as the founder and inspiration behind the Sundance Film Festival, that would make him one of the towering figures in the history of American film. And had he focused his seemingly boundless energies exclusively on the best of social causes, such as climate issues and indigenous rights, in the quiet and unassuming way he did, that would be a cause for a celebration of his greatness. The fact that Robert Redford managed to do all of this and more during his lifetime, and with such an unerring sense of grace, cements his place as a foundational figure of modern American cinema. Team Vintage Sand takes the last line from one of his greatest performances, in 1972's "The Candidate", and uses it as the title of our tribute to him as we ponder the what American film will look like without him: What do we do now?
