Rocky Horror: Episode Zero - The Women (1939)

Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold are working backwards through film history, and in Season 2, they're using THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW as the starting point!  

This week, Bibbs and Witney meet THE WOMEN, a 1939 George Cukor film with an astounding ensemble cast of only female actors! Norma Shearer! Joan Crawford! Rosalind Russell! Joan Fontaine! Butterfly McQueen! Hedda Hopper! It's one of the most unique films of the Golden Age of Hollywood, and it had an intriguing impact on THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW!

Give it a listen!
