SHIRLEY TEMPLE - PART ONE
Em welcomes us all to the Golden Age of Hollywood’s lax child labour laws. Whilst the Great Depression gave the public an appetite for tawdry distractions, some film producers figured getting babies to perform weird, sexy, adult stuff was just the ticket, so they wrangled up some toddlers, and a child star was born! We’ll learn that the secret to some of that old-timey movie-magic was sensory deprivation iceboxes (or fun, pranks like telling children their mom died so they’d cry properly) and we’ll be unpleasantly reminded that the trope of “infamously rape-y studio executive” is a congenital defect of the industry. But not to worry, despite all the gross jerks, we’ll find Shirley Temple still remains an iconic wholesome, cutie.
