"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

It’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/extremely-stupid/n8642\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a skit that ran on \u003cem>Saturday Night Live\u003c/em> in December 1976\u003c/a>, during the 10th episode of the second season. Candice Bergen hosted; Frank Zappa was the musical guest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sketch is a fake commercial, a public service announcement for the stupidity-rights movement, featuring Bergen and Gilda Radner. The premise is, appropriately, extremely stupid, and would likely have only been moderately funny if things had gone according to script. But then magic happens: Bergen flubs a line, and Radner runs with it in such a simple yet hilarious way that the studio audience erupts with laughter and, simultaneously, Bergen breaks. Straight-up loses it. I’m talking slumber party, wipe-your-eyes, pee-your-pants style giggle fit, which the viewer gets to watch over Radner’s right shoulder for the duration of the sketch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This sketch is \u003cem>so dumb\u003c/em>, but I love it. I love the face Radner makes as she’s deciding to deliver the ad-libbed line that sends the thing over the top; I love seeing a seasoned actress rendered helpless by laughter. But there’s also something that’s just perfectly-distilled \u003cem>Gilda\u003c/em> here: open, silly, contagious joy. It feels like an old friend making you laugh, finding your weak spot and doubling down on it, trying to make milk shoot out of your nose.

Amy Poehler said she thinks of Gilda as a red-blue state: loved by all,” says Lisa D’Apolito, the director of \u003cem>Love, Gilda\u003c/em>, a new documentary about the late comedian that hits theaters Sept. 21. (It had its world premiere as the opening film at New York’s Tribeca Film Festival in April, with an emotional introduction from Tina Fey.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She just enjoyed performing \u003cem>so much\u003c/em>,” says D’Apolito of Radner. “And she obviously had an acute sense of character, but physical comedy was always part of it. The way she uses her body—even if you didn’t understand the language she was speaking, I think you could just watch Gilda and laugh.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just watch Gilda and laugh” is, fittingly, what most \u003cem>Love, Gilda\u003c/em> viewers will leave the theater wanting to do, so prepare to lose at least an hour or two afterward in a YouTube rabbit hole, revisiting beloved characters like Emily Litella, Roseanne Roseannadanna and Lisa Loopner. But casual fans of the comedian—who died tragically at 42, of ovarian cancer—will also gain insight on lesser-known aspects of her life; the documentary isn’t shy about her demons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13840744\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13840744\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-800x808.jpg\" alt=\"Tom Schiller, Gilda Radner, John Belushi, Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtin in 'Love, Gilda.'\" width=\"800\" height=\"808\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-800x808.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-160x162.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-768x776.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-1020x1031.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-1188x1200.jpg 1188w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-1180x1192.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-960x970.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-240x242.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-375x379.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-520x525.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup.jpg 1544w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tom Schiller, Gilda Radner, John Belushi, Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtin in ‘Love, Gilda.’ \u003ccite>(Courtesy Magnolia Pictures)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Born into an upper-middle-class Jewish family in Detroit, Radner was a happy but chubby kid; her parents put her on diet pills while she was still in elementary school. Meanwhile, she honed a self-deprecating sense of humor as a way to debarb insults from other children, and grew to crave the feeling of love that came with making people laugh. Then Radner’s father, her most enthusiastic audience, died when she was 14. In context, her deep insecurities (even at the height of her fame) and her ongoing battle with bulimia as an adult (diary entries from her stay at an eating disorder clinic are particularly tough to hear) snap into painfully sharp focus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>D’Apolito earned the trust of Radner’s brother, as well as ex-husband Gene Wilder and other close friends over the course of the four-year filmmaking process, gaining access to previously unreleased material, and the film feels both intimate and protective of Radner’s legacy as a result. To be sure, it’s fun to see Amy Poehler, Melissa McCarthy, Bill Hader and other current comics voice their awe about Radner, while onetime colleagues like Lorne Michaels and Martin Short get the chance to reminisce. The doc touches on the comedian’s romantic relationships, including marriages to \u003cem>SNL\u003c/em> bandleader G.E. Smith and, of course, to Wilder. (Bill Murray, who had a two-year, deep but reportedly tumultuous relationship with Radner, didn’t respond to the filmmaker’s requests for an interview.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s the primary sources that make \u003cem>Love, Gilda\u003c/em> hit you in the chest. Using home movies, diaries, and a series of audiotapes the comedian recorded in the process of writing her memoir \u003cem>It’s Always Something\u003c/em>, the film smartly allows Radner to narrate her own story, in her own voice, wherever possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13840708\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13840708\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-800x254.jpg\" alt=\"Gilda Radner in 'Love, Gilda.'\" width=\"800\" height=\"254\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-800x254.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-160x51.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-768x244.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-1020x324.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-1200x381.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-1180x375.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-960x305.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-240x76.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-375x119.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/3-520x165.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gilda Radner in ‘Love, Gilda.’ \u003ccite>(Courtesy Magnolia Pictures)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>It’s in these journals that we get closest to understanding a central tension for Radner: that of a natural star who got blindsided by the realities of actual stardom. The first person cast in the “Not Ready For Primetime Players”—the freshman group of comedians on \u003cem>SNL\u003c/em> in 1975 that included Chevy Chase, John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd—Radner was in many ways an archetypal \u003ca href=\"https://www.buzzfeed.com/annehelenpetersen/jennifer-lawrence-and-the-history-of-cool-girls\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cool Girl\u003c/a>. She could hold her own with literally the best of them; there was an innocence about her, but she also loved to get gross, tell fart jokes; she could play kids or old ladies and anything in between. She was always having fun—explosive, fully committed fun—and she didn’t mind \u003ca href=\"http://fuckyeahgildaradner.tumblr.com/post/67929609392/jagweedish-deactivated20140427-gilda-radner\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">if it came with a few bruised ribs\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the end of the show’s first season, viewers across America had fallen in love with her. And just like that, she could barely leave the house without a disguise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think she saw life as a playground, and she loved to go out and play,” says D’Apolito. “But once she started to become famous she couldn’t go out, and I think that’s when the eating disorder got worse … her friends told me she liked getting her makeup done for magazines, but she definitely wasn’t after fame.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What does it mean, exactly, to love an audience but dislike being famous? What do you owe your fans, if anything? And how much heavier are those questions when you’re a young woman whom nearly everyone, myself included, has subconsciously come to think of as a friend?\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13840712\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13840712\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-800x543.jpg\" alt=\"Gilda Radner with Gene Wilder and dog Sparkle in 'Love, Gilda.'\" width=\"800\" height=\"543\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-800x543.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-160x109.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-768x521.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-1020x692.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-1200x814.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-1180x801.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-960x652.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-240x163.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-375x254.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-520x353.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gilda Radner with Gene Wilder and dog Sparkle in ‘Love, Gilda.’ \u003ccite>(Courtesy Magnolia Pictures)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 4.6875em;float: left;line-height: 0.733em;padding: 0.05em 0.1em 0 0;font-family: times, serif, georgia\">I\u003c/span>t’d be ridiculous to attempt to list the performers, male and female, who owe Gilda Radner a debt in some way. Mike Myers has said she’s the reason he wanted to be on \u003cem>SNL\u003c/em>. Personally, I can’t watch Maya Rudolph, Kate McKinnon, \u003cem>Broad City\u003c/em>, Ali Wong, Jenny Slate—the list goes on—without seeing sparks of Gilda’s electricity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the whole doc clocking in at just 86 minutes, \u003cem>Love, Gilda\u003c/em> doesn’t have time to fully map that lineage either. The final half-hour feels a bit rushed, covering Radner’s life in Los Angeles, grief over a miscarriage, diagnosis with ovarian cancer, and discovery of the Wellness Community, a cancer support organization that later inspired Wilder to found Gilda’s Club in his wife’s honor. (The two organizations have since merged.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for those of us who are still in love with her, it might also be true that even a five-hour film wouldn’t feel sufficient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I first started trying to drum up support for the film, I was hearing concern about whether there would be enough interest in her—I think especially among younger viewers, who might not know who she is,” says D’Apolito. But D’Apolito had worked with Gilda’s Club; she knew exactly how much Radner meant to clients there. And since the film first premiered she’s held screenings in select cities—when we talk, she’s just hosted San Diego’s the night before—and “every time, there are 20 or 25 people who wait to just tell me ‘thank you’ after. They’re \u003cem>grateful\u003c/em> for her.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13840742\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13840742\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-800x537.jpg\" alt=\"Gilda Radner in 'Love, Gilda.'\" width=\"800\" height=\"537\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-800x537.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-768x515.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-1020x684.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-1200x805.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-1180x792.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-960x644.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-240x161.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-375x252.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-520x349.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gilda Radner in ‘Love, Gilda.’ \u003ccite>(Courtesy Magnolia Pictures)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Gilda Radner died on the afternoon of May 20, 1989, which also happened to be a Saturday, a few hours before the finale of \u003cem>SNL\u003c/em>’s 14th season. The news broke as host Steve Martin was rehearsing; the cast and crew were understandably devastated—apparently few of them were aware of how ill she’d been—and the decision was made to scrap the intro monologue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, visibly choked up, Martin introduces a \u003ca href=\"http://classicajays.tumblr.com/post/7734859743/so-here-it-is-everyone-the-steve-martin-monologue\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">clip of a sketch he performed with her on the show in 1978\u003c/a>. It’s entirely wordless: a musical number in which the pair, dressed in white, both obviously masters of physical comedy, swerve between attempts at sensual ballroom dancing and goofy, hysterical, limb-swinging freakouts—all culminating in Radner climbing back into her chair at a dinner table in, and I don’t know how else to phrase this, the funniest way anyone has ever tried to segue from dancing into sitting back down at a dinner table in the history of time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sketch was apparently parodying a well-known routine from a Fred Astaire movie, but I didn’t know that the first few times I saw it. All I knew was that it made me laugh like crazy, and that it, too, was top-shelf, quadruple-distilled Gilda. Which is to say, joyful. Game for anything.

It’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/extremely-stupid/n8642\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a skit that ran on \u003cem>Saturday Night Live\u003c/em> in December 1976\u003c/a>, during the 10th episode of the second season. Candice Bergen hosted; Frank Zappa was the musical guest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sketch is a fake commercial, a public service announcement for the stupidity-rights movement, featuring Bergen and Gilda Radner. The premise is, appropriately, extremely stupid, and would likely have only been moderately funny if things had gone according to script. But then magic happens: Bergen flubs a line, and Radner runs with it in such a simple yet hilarious way that the studio audience erupts with laughter and, simultaneously, Bergen breaks. Straight-up loses it. I’m talking slumber party, wipe-your-eyes, pee-your-pants style giggle fit, which the viewer gets to watch over Radner’s right shoulder for the duration of the sketch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This sketch is \u003cem>so dumb\u003c/em>, but I love it. I love the face Radner makes as she’s deciding to deliver the ad-libbed line that sends the thing over the top; I love seeing a seasoned actress rendered helpless by laughter. But there’s also something that’s just perfectly-distilled \u003cem>Gilda\u003c/em> here: open, silly, contagious joy. It feels like an old friend making you laugh, finding your weak spot and doubling down on it, trying to make milk shoot out of your nose. I wish this skit lasted 10 minutes longer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I wish we got even 10 more minutes of Gilda in general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13840709\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13840709\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-800x803.jpg\" alt=\"Gilda Radner in 'Love, Gilda.'\" width=\"800\" height=\"803\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-800x803.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-160x161.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-768x771.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-1020x1024.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-1195x1200.jpg 1195w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-1180x1185.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-960x964.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-240x241.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-375x377.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-520x522.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/5-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gilda Radner in ‘Love, Gilda.’ \u003ccite>(Courtesy Magnolia Pictures)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 4.6875em;float: left;line-height: 0.733em;padding: 0.05em 0.1em 0 0;font-family: times, serif, georgia\">“T\u003c/span>here’s truly a timeless, universal quality to what she did. Amy Poehler said she thinks of Gilda as a red-blue state: loved by all,” says Lisa D’Apolito, the director of \u003cem>Love, Gilda\u003c/em>, a new documentary about the late comedian that hits theaters Sept. 21. (It had its world premiere as the opening film at New York’s Tribeca Film Festival in April, with an emotional introduction from Tina Fey.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She just enjoyed performing \u003cem>so much\u003c/em>,” says D’Apolito of Radner. “And she obviously had an acute sense of character, but physical comedy was always part of it. The way she uses her body—even if you didn’t understand the language she was speaking, I think you could just watch Gilda and laugh.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just watch Gilda and laugh” is, fittingly, what most \u003cem>Love, Gilda\u003c/em> viewers will leave the theater wanting to do, so prepare to lose at least an hour or two afterward in a YouTube rabbit hole, revisiting beloved characters like Emily Litella, Roseanne Roseannadanna and Lisa Loopner. But casual fans of the comedian—who died tragically at 42, of ovarian cancer—will also gain insight on lesser-known aspects of her life; the documentary isn’t shy about her demons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13840744\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13840744\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-800x808.jpg\" alt=\"Tom Schiller, Gilda Radner, John Belushi, Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtin in 'Love, Gilda.'\" width=\"800\" height=\"808\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-800x808.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-160x162.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-768x776.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-1020x1031.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-1188x1200.jpg 1188w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-1180x1192.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-960x970.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-240x242.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-375x379.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-520x525.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/gildaSNLgroup.jpg 1544w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tom Schiller, Gilda Radner, John Belushi, Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtin in ‘Love, Gilda.’ \u003ccite>(Courtesy Magnolia Pictures)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Born into an upper-middle-class Jewish family in Detroit, Radner was a happy but chubby kid; her parents put her on diet pills while she was still in elementary school. Meanwhile, she honed a self-deprecating sense of humor as a way to debarb insults from other children, and grew to crave the feeling of love that came with making people laugh. Then Radner’s father, her most enthusiastic audience, died when she was 14. In context, her deep insecurities (even at the height of her fame) and her ongoing battle with bulimia as an adult (diary entries from her stay at an eating disorder clinic are particularly tough to hear) snap into painfully sharp focus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>D’Apolito earned the trust of Radner’s brother, as well as ex-husband Gene Wilder and other close friends over the course of the four-year filmmaking process, gaining access to previously unreleased material, and the film feels both intimate and protective of Radner’s legacy as a result. To be sure, it’s fun to see Amy Poehler, Melissa McCarthy, Bill Hader and other current comics voice their awe about Radner, while onetime colleagues like Lorne Michaels and Martin Short get the chance to reminisce.

The first person cast in the “Not Ready For Primetime Players”—the freshman group of comedians on \u003cem>SNL\u003c/em> in 1975 that included Chevy Chase, John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd—Radner was in many ways an archetypal \u003ca href=\"https://www.buzzfeed.com/annehelenpetersen/jennifer-lawrence-and-the-history-of-cool-girls\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cool Girl\u003c/a>. She could hold her own with literally the best of them; there was an innocence about her, but she also loved to get gross, tell fart jokes; she could play kids or old ladies and anything in between. She was always having fun—explosive, fully committed fun—and she didn’t mind \u003ca href=\"http://fuckyeahgildaradner.tumblr.com/post/67929609392/jagweedish-deactivated20140427-gilda-radner\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">if it came with a few bruised ribs\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the end of the show’s first season, viewers across America had fallen in love with her. And just like that, she could barely leave the house without a disguise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think she saw life as a playground, and she loved to go out and play,” says D’Apolito. “But once she started to become famous she couldn’t go out, and I think that’s when the eating disorder got worse … her friends told me she liked getting her makeup done for magazines, but she definitely wasn’t after fame.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What does it mean, exactly, to love an audience but dislike being famous? What do you owe your fans, if anything? And how much heavier are those questions when you’re a young woman whom nearly everyone, myself included, has subconsciously come to think of as a friend?\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13840712\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13840712\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-800x543.jpg\" alt=\"Gilda Radner with Gene Wilder and dog Sparkle in 'Love, Gilda.'\" width=\"800\" height=\"543\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-800x543.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-160x109.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-768x521.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-1020x692.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-1200x814.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-1180x801.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-960x652.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-240x163.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-375x254.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/12-520x353.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gilda Radner with Gene Wilder and dog Sparkle in ‘Love, Gilda.’ \u003ccite>(Courtesy Magnolia Pictures)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 4.6875em;float: left;line-height: 0.733em;padding: 0.05em 0.1em 0 0;font-family: times, serif, georgia\">I\u003c/span>t’d be ridiculous to attempt to list the performers, male and female, who owe Gilda Radner a debt in some way. Mike Myers has said she’s the reason he wanted to be on \u003cem>SNL\u003c/em>. Personally, I can’t watch Maya Rudolph, Kate McKinnon, \u003cem>Broad City\u003c/em>, Ali Wong, Jenny Slate—the list goes on—without seeing sparks of Gilda’s electricity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the whole doc clocking in at just 86 minutes, \u003cem>Love, Gilda\u003c/em> doesn’t have time to fully map that lineage either. The final half-hour feels a bit rushed, covering Radner’s life in Los Angeles, grief over a miscarriage, diagnosis with ovarian cancer, and discovery of the Wellness Community, a cancer support organization that later inspired Wilder to found Gilda’s Club in his wife’s honor. (The two organizations have since merged.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for those of us who are still in love with her, it might also be true that even a five-hour film wouldn’t feel sufficient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I first started trying to drum up support for the film, I was hearing concern about whether there would be enough interest in her—I think especially among younger viewers, who might not know who she is,” says D’Apolito. But D’Apolito had worked with Gilda’s Club; she knew exactly how much Radner meant to clients there. And since the film first premiered she’s held screenings in select cities—when we talk, she’s just hosted San Diego’s the night before—and “every time, there are 20 or 25 people who wait to just tell me ‘thank you’ after. They’re \u003cem>grateful\u003c/em> for her.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13840742\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13840742\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-800x537.jpg\" alt=\"Gilda Radner in 'Love, Gilda.'\" width=\"800\" height=\"537\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-800x537.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-768x515.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-1020x684.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-1200x805.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-1180x792.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-960x644.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-240x161.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-375x252.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/GildaWriting-520x349.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gilda Radner in ‘Love, Gilda.’ \u003ccite>(Courtesy Magnolia Pictures)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Gilda Radner died on the afternoon of May 20, 1989, which also happened to be a Saturday, a few hours before the finale of \u003cem>SNL\u003c/em>’s 14th season. The news broke as host Steve Martin was rehearsing; the cast and crew were understandably devastated—apparently few of them were aware of how ill she’d been—and the decision was made to scrap the intro monologue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, visibly choked up, Martin introduces a \u003ca href=\"http://classicajays.tumblr.com/post/7734859743/so-here-it-is-everyone-the-steve-martin-monologue\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">clip of a sketch he performed with her on the show in 1978\u003c/a>. It’s entirely wordless: a musical number in which the pair, dressed in white, both obviously masters of physical comedy, swerve between attempts at sensual ballroom dancing and goofy, hysterical, limb-swinging freakouts—all culminating in Radner climbing back into her chair at a dinner table in, and I don’t know how else to phrase this, the funniest way anyone has ever tried to segue from dancing into sitting back down at a dinner table in the history of time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sketch was apparently parodying a well-known routine from a Fred Astaire movie, but I didn’t know that the first few times I saw it. All I knew was that it made me laugh like crazy, and that it, too, was top-shelf, quadruple-distilled Gilda. Which is to say, joyful. Game for anything. Sweet beyond belief, but cut with the signs of an absolute maniac.

The result is a six-episode series, \u003cem>Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story\u003c/em>, which airs on the Paramount Network through early September.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the beginning, as the series shows, there was a lot of sympathy for Trayvon’s death. Even people like Donald Trump and (then) Fox News host Bill O’Reilly thought the loss of the 17 year-old was, in Trump’s words, “terrible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until Barack Obama, who often was famously reluctant to speak to the country on issues of race, decided to weigh in. “Obviously, this is a tragedy. I can only imagine what these parents are going through,” Obama said in his trademark measured cadence. “And when I think about this boy, I think about my own kids.” Then, after speaking about the importance of letting the investigation run its course he said this: “You know, if I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon … ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>From victim to villain\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The series tells how those few words turned George Zimmerman from a stalker-y adult into a victim, a person who was being (metaphorically speaking), beaten up by the most powerful man in the world. “Zimmerman is not being treated fairly,” O’Reilly said on Fox.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now, George Zimmerman was the victim of a president who was overreaching,” says director Jenner Furst.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stories began to leak out: Trayvon had been skipping school. He’d been suspended for writing “WTF” on a hallway locker. Trace amounts of THC, the chemical that usually indicates marijuana, had been found in his system, according to a forensic report. Suddeny he wasn’t the sweet-faced 17-year-old with the impish sense of humor, he was a Bad Guy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Trayvon was the victim in this case,” his father, Tracy Martin, told NPR. “They tried to make him the villain in this case.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And not just Trayvon. During the initial jury questioning, Tracy Martin and his ex-wife, Sybrina Fulton were criticized, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Being a single parent with two boys of my own,” one potential juror said during questioning, “I don’t want to judge, but I just want to say this could have been prevented had he not been up here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the trial went on, the atmosphere in Sanford became even more charged and polarized. White nationalists and the alt-right adopted Zimmerman’s cause, seeing in him a martyr being sacrificed on the altar of political correctness. Protestors for racial justice marched, and clashed with them. The scene bristled with satellite dishes, high on their stalks that took everything in like heavy-headed sunflowers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The NRA and Stand Your Ground\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Florida’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2012/03/20/149014228/a-history-of-stand-your-ground-law-in-florida\">Stand Your Ground\u003c/a> law is the character that’s unseen, but very much felt in this series. “I think that it’s very shocking to examine how a lobbying entity was able to rewrite the definition of murder in this country, and how Florida was used as a laboratory to explore these gun laws, which are now commonplace in America,” says director Jenner Furst.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NRA declined to talk to him and co-director Julia Nason. The organization remains a strong supporter of Stand Your Ground laws and \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/world/2012/may/02/nra-stand-your-ground-law\">said in 2012\u003c/a> that such legislation enables “lawful people to defend themselves, and deters would-be murderers, rapists and robbers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The filmmakers say George Zimmerman did not respond to requests for interviews. (The series details the threats he sent to the investigator hired by Furst and Nason to find him)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the end, he was acquitted. The six female jurors found the state had not made a strong enough case to prove that Zimmerman had committed second-degree murder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton were determined that some good would come from their son’s death. Shortly after the trial, they established the Trayvon Martin Foundation, which is dedicated to helping parents and families that have lost children to gun violence. They speak out frequently against Stand Your Ground laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The series links Martin’s death and the trial with the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement, which soon became a national force. When people push back and ask why all lives shouldn’t matter, Sabrina Fulton has a ready response: “It’s not taking away from anybody else’s life,” she says, “it’s just putting emphasis on black lives because black lives seem so … disposable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fulton says she is heartened by the activists of all races who supported them during the trial and are still advocating for justice for others who don’t look like them. “We didn’t get into this situation with just African-Americans, and we’re not going to get out of this situation with just African-Americans,” she insists. “I think all races understand it’s not about civil rights, it’s about human rights.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The work keeps them busy, Tracy Martin says, but they never forget what they’ve lost. “For many people it’s a story, but for us it’s our life. We relive the story every day,” he says. “Even though we can’t save our son, we want to save someone else’s son or daughter.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

Suddeny he wasn’t the sweet-faced 17-year-old with the impish sense of humor, he was a Bad Guy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Trayvon was the victim in this case,” his father, Tracy Martin, told NPR. “They tried to make him the villain in this case.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And not just Trayvon. During the initial jury questioning, Tracy Martin and his ex-wife, Sybrina Fulton were criticized, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Being a single parent with two boys of my own,” one potential juror said during questioning, “I don’t want to judge, but I just want to say this could have been prevented had he not been up here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the trial went on, the atmosphere in Sanford became even more charged and polarized. White nationalists and the alt-right adopted Zimmerman’s cause, seeing in him a martyr being sacrificed on the altar of political correctness. Protestors for racial justice marched, and clashed with them. The scene bristled with satellite dishes, high on their stalks that took everything in like heavy-headed sunflowers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The NRA and Stand Your Ground\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Florida’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2012/03/20/149014228/a-history-of-stand-your-ground-law-in-florida\">Stand Your Ground\u003c/a> law is the character that’s unseen, but very much felt in this series. “I think that it’s very shocking to examine how a lobbying entity was able to rewrite the definition of murder in this country, and how Florida was used as a laboratory to explore these gun laws, which are now commonplace in America,” says director Jenner Furst.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NRA declined to talk to him and co-director Julia Nason. The organization remains a strong supporter of Stand Your Ground laws and \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/world/2012/may/02/nra-stand-your-ground-law\">said in 2012\u003c/a> that such legislation enables “lawful people to defend themselves, and deters would-be murderers, rapists and robbers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The filmmakers say George Zimmerman did not respond to requests for interviews. (The series details the threats he sent to the investigator hired by Furst and Nason to find him)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the end, he was acquitted. The six female jurors found the state had not made a strong enough case to prove that Zimmerman had committed second-degree murder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton were determined that some good would come from their son’s death. Shortly after the trial, they established the Trayvon Martin Foundation, which is dedicated to helping parents and families that have lost children to gun violence. They speak out frequently against Stand Your Ground laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The series links Martin’s death and the trial with the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement, which soon became a national force. When people push back and ask why all lives shouldn’t matter, Sabrina Fulton has a ready response: “It’s not taking away from anybody else’s life,” she says, “it’s just putting emphasis on black lives because black lives seem so … disposable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fulton says she is heartened by the activists of all races who supported them during the trial and are still advocating for justice for others who don’t look like them. “We didn’t get into this situation with just African-Americans, and we’re not going to get out of this situation with just African-Americans,” she insists. “I think all races understand it’s not about civil rights, it’s about human rights.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The work keeps them busy, Tracy Martin says, but they never forget what they’ve lost. “For many people it’s a story, but for us it’s our life. We relive the story every day,” he says. “Even though we can’t save our son, we want to save someone else’s son or daughter.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

His movies helped lead the young Okazaki into filmmaking in the first place. “The films are so great. I mean, you do have to slow your brain down a little bit, and I think it’s hard to watch films with subtitles, but God, the films are so rich,” Okazaki says with a sparkle in his eyes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Japanese-American director grew up in the 1970s, when art house movies were still a thing, and that’s how he was first exposed to all sorts of films that were considered old or classic even then. Today? “Now, you are dependent on these streaming services and hardly anything’s there,” Okazaki says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Okazaki says he was “saddened to note how few young people in Japan had seen any of [Mifune’s] films with [the great Japanese director] Akira Kurosawa.

Also, most distribution deals are for a limited time only. We’ve all gotten used to those articles with headlines like, “The Best Movies and TV Shows to Stream on Netflix\u003ca href=\"https://slate.com/culture/2018/03/the-best-movies-tv-shows-expiring-from-netflix-in-april.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Before They Expire\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Netflix gives you the option to “save” the movie down at the bottom of your queue.

You can stream a wider selection of titles on Netflix rivals like Apple and Amazon Prime, but you have to search.

That makes it hard for archivists and librarians, he adds, but what makes them different is they’re not serving shareholders. They’re serving the public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Imagine if it wasn’t \u003ca href=\"https://archive.org/details/prelinger\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Prelinger Archives\u003c/a> that owned the famous \u003ca href=\"https://archive.org/details/TripDownMarketStreetrBeforeTheFire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">footage of Market Street\u003c/a> days before the great earthquake and fire of 1906 in San Francisco, and that owner wasn’t willing to share the footage without being paid a lot of money?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You wouldn’t see thoughtful news stories like this one:[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYHGj19RrF0]Many copyright owners charge cheaper “rental rates,” if you will, for nonprofits wanting to use historically valuable footage. Other copyright owners don’t care who you are or what noble cause you serve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That makes building and maintaining a comprehensive collection of feature films and documentaries an expensive proposition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nobody’s going to take a risk on archives,” Prelinger says. No privately funded company, he means.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prelinger says entertainment companies naturally want us looking at what they’re \u003ca href=\"https://variety.com/2018/digital/news/netflix-original-spending-85-percent-1202809623/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">spending money on now\u003c/a>.

Today, Olson writes about queer films, and also creates, collects and curates them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Silicon Valley has created outsized, irrational consumer expectations,” Olson says. “We used to have almost zero access,” especially to more obscure film titles. “We just have to accept the reality of the world we live in, and put our money where our mouth is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13836650\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13836650\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/07/RS31732_Screen-Shot-2018-07-06-at-12.34.10-PM-qut-800x457.jpg\" alt=\"For Sam Green, who made the documentary The Weather Underground, it matters that the trailer is available for free for the foreseeable future to anyone who searches for it on YouTube.

"content": "\u003cp>It’s hard to imagine anyone sending hate mail to Fred Rogers, but there was one episode of \u003cem>Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood \u003c/em>that brought the beloved children’s TV star a bit of blowback: “He did an episode about Santa Claus,” explains filmmaker Morgan Neville. “And he didn’t like the idea that there was somebody who snuck into your house in the middle of the night … so he told kids the truth … and a lot of parents wrote a lot of angry letters.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa aside, Rogers generally flew “under the radar,” Neville says, even when he was engaging kids in conversations that some adults considered well beyond their years. With a toy trolley, talking puppets and a simple set, the show had low production value, but the host was “cutting edge,” the filmmaker explains, in respecting the emotional intelligence of children; helping them grapple with “grown-up” issues such as death, divorce and disturbing current events.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aimed at toddlers and preschoolers, \u003cem>Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood \u003c/em>made its nationwide debut in 1968 and aired for more than three decades. It’s now the subject of a new documentary called\u003cem> Won’t You Be My Neighbor?, \u003c/em>directed by Neville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most of us have a relationship with Fred Rogers that predates our memory …” Neville says. “It’s very deep in us and he speaks to us almost like our own inner child.”\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>Interview Highlights\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On how Rogers discovered television during a visit home during college\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He came back to visit his parents for spring break in 1948 and his parents had gotten a television — one of the first televisions in the neighborhood — and he watched it on this spring break and said: \u003cem>My God, this is an incredible invention and I can’t believe how it’s being misused.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And he really changed his entire life course. … He realized that television was going to be this device that was going to be transformative and also that there were going to be generations of children being raised by this device and somebody had to use television to do something more than just sell sugar and toys to kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On being “cutting edge” in respecting the emotional maturity of children\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What he’s doing is not just providing joy for children but really trying to allay fear. When he looked at children what he realized is that most adults condescend to children.

With a toy trolley, talking puppets and a simple set, the show had low production value, but the host was “cutting edge,” the filmmaker explains, in respecting the emotional intelligence of children; helping them grapple with “grown-up” issues such as death, divorce and disturbing current events.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aimed at toddlers and preschoolers, \u003cem>Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood \u003c/em>made its nationwide debut in 1968 and aired for more than three decades. It’s now the subject of a new documentary called\u003cem> Won’t You Be My Neighbor?, \u003c/em>directed by Neville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most of us have a relationship with Fred Rogers that predates our memory …” Neville says. “It’s very deep in us and he speaks to us almost like our own inner child.”\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>Interview Highlights\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On how Rogers discovered television during a visit home during college\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>The best thing about seeing previously marginalized groups claim their own space in pop culture is it often ends up showing — in the most compelling ways — how alike we all really are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s my biggest takeaway from \u003cem>Pose\u003c/em>, FX’s crackling new Sunday night series about drag ball culture in New York during the late 1980s. On one level, the show is a detailed exploration of how drag performers, some of whom are transgender, created their own percolating club scene when they weren’t welcome anywhere else. It’s a world filled with fashion show-style competitions, or balls, where competitors dress according to a given category and walk before a panel of judges who evaluate them on style, appearance, dance skills and authenticity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mostly young folks who compete are largely black and Latinx queer kids who live together in collectives called houses. And the battles — for respect and trophies — can be fierce. But on another level, \u003cem>Pose\u003c/em> offers a more universal story about a group of rejected, shunned people who build new families for themselves, replacing the blood relatives who so often let them down. As the AIDS crisis ravages the city’s gay and transgender communities, groups with names like the House of Abundance and the House of Evangelista become havens for kids who have run away from or were kicked out of their parents’ homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the first episode opens, we meet veteran competitor Blanca, played with an earnest ferocity by transgender actress Mj Rodriguez. Blanca learns she has HIV at a time when such news was tantamount to a death sentence. She decides her life is quite literally too short to spend it following the imposing queen mother who leads the House of Abundance. Instead, she leaves to head her own group of LGBTQ “children,” dubbed the House of Evangelista.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The story toggles between several plotlines. There’s Blanca’s work to build her house, starting by taking in Damon (Ryan Jamaal Swain), a talented gay dance student whose family kicked him out when they learned his sexual orientation. There’s Stan, an ambitious, young, married executive (played by \u003cem>American Horror Story\u003c/em> alum Evan Peters) who works for Donald Trump during the day and visits transgender sex worker Angel at night. (Oh, and Angel, played by Indya Moore, also happens to be a member of Blanca’s house.) And then there’s Damon, who’s learning what it means to be a gay man, including how to build a relationship and how to have sex.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Co-created by Ryan Murphy (the mastermind behind \u003cem>American Horror Story, Glee\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Feud\u003c/em>), \u003cem>Pose\u003c/em> is stuffed with cultural references and cool ’80s music — any series that works in both the Mary Jane Girls’ “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hw-7YVrleis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">In My House\u003c/a>” and Kate Bush’s “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wp43OdtAAkM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Running Up That Hill\u003c/a>” has my loyalty forever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A house is family that you get to choose,” Blanca tells Damon at one point. Later, she notes, “When you get rejected by your mother, your father, you’re always out there looking for someone to replace the love you’re missing.” These may sound like platitudes bordering on hokey, but spoken in this context, they land as heartfelt and earnest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which may help explain why \u003cem>Pose \u003c/em>sometimes feels like a family drama at its core — filtered through the lens of gay, transgender and drag culture in 1987. Damon is trying to decide when or if he will sleep with the guy he cares for; another member of House of Evangelista, Lil Papi (Angel Bismark Curiel), sells drugs despite a house rule forbidding it; and Blanca is working hard to make her house a success and leave some kind of legacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, of course, there are the competitions, the centerpieces of early episodes.
