Classical World at the Movies - Down To Earth (1947)

Featuring a goddess of the silver screen, 1947's "Down To Earth" tells the story of a goddess who comes down to earth to act as a muse for a struggling playwright. Cinema deity Rita Hayworth stars as Terpsichore, one of the Nine Muses of Greek mythology and she decides to come down from the heavens to instruct a young writer/director on how to properly produce his musical on the Muses. Comedy and romance ensue.

Is it a good film? How true is it to mythology?

Join Sean Marlon Newcombe and Dr. Gary Stickel as they discuss this tale from Hollywood's Golden Era.
