This movie is based on a true story of four girls that were becoming sick due to radium poisoning. Two of the girls, Jo and Bessie Cavallo, work at American Radium in the 1930s, painting clock dials with radium that glows in the dark. As they find themselves becoming sick, they find out radium poisoning was happening to them. And now, they're fighting for the right to say people's lives and not have girls with radioactive bones in the future.
In this episode, we talk about the historical significance of the Radium Girls and why this movie is simple but great for an easy watch.
