S01 E31 Renowned playwright and composer Stephen Dolginoff joins us to unravel the chilling narrative behind Alfred Hitchcock's "Rope" and its connection to the real-life crime of Leopold and Loeb. We promise a captivating journey through the film's thematic ties to Nietzsche's superman theory and the concept of thrill killings. As we mark the 100th anniversary of the infamous crime, Stephen shares his unique insights from crafting the musical "Thrill Me," which has mesmerized audiences worldwide with its haunting retelling of this dark chapter in history.
Hitchcock’s technical wizardry takes center stage as we explore the groundbreaking cinematic efforts that brought "Rope" to life. By using continuous takes, Hitchcock crafted a tense, immersive experience, skillfully navigating the technical challenges of his time. We also discuss the film’s nuanced depiction of a homosexual relationship, a daring move amid the constraints of the 1940s Production Code. With thoughtful casting decisions, including Jimmy Stewart's intriguing role, the film layers complexity over the suspenseful plot that continues to captivate audiences today.
Our conversation dives into the psychology behind thrill killings and the allure of true crime in art and storytelling. Stephen shares the inspiration behind "Thrill Me" and its compelling portrayal of the notorious Leopold and Loeb. We reflect on the magnetic appeal of these characters and their intellectual thrill, offering listeners a unique perspective on how historical events fuel modern narratives. This episode promises an enriching exploration of how crime, cinema, and theater intertwine, leaving you with a deeper appreciation for Hitchcock’s indelible mark on film.
