Listen "Fatal Attraction (feat. Murtada Elfadl)"
Episode Synopsis
It's time to explore the World According to Glenn. I'm Kevin Jacobsen, Glenn Close is my favorite actress, and this show is all about exploring the career of one of the finest actors of her generation. Each episode, I'm joined by a guest as we dive into one of Glenn's movies, TV shows, or stage productions, going chronologically through her career, discussing her performance, and assessing the project itself. This week, we're covering the 1987 erotic thriller Fatal Attraction! Critic and programmer Murtada Elfadl joins me to discuss the film's seismic impact on pop culture, Glenn's sensitive approach to playing Alex Forrest, how test audiences hated the original ending which led to a major rewrite, and how the film holds up nearly 40 years later.
