Show Notes

We are still celebrating the new year by listening to “Rain on New Year’s Eve,” an episode of Quiet, Please that was probably inspired by Wyllis Cooper’s time spent working on Son of Frankenstein! The story features a beleaguered screenwriter who is trapped in a seemingly endless film production. Can anything convince this director to stop changing the script and just finish the movie? Where did this writer find his inspiration for the monster in this picture? How much resentment does Cooper still harbor toward Hollywood? Listen for yourself and find out!
