Join us for an in-depth dive into Frank Herbert's novel *Dune* and all of the adaptations of that story. Using the most famous science-fiction book ever written as our base, we're looking at the choices made in different times by different creators: How does one adapt a story that's been deemed unadaptable – what worked, and what didn't? And how does each attempt leave a deeper understanding of this rich galaxy of politics, philosophy, and lore? * Also, browse our feed for our in-depth coverage of *Silo* , Apple TV+’s dystopic scifi thriller, from two different perspectives: book reader Elysia, and show-only Luke, with spoilers only up to the episode discussed and equivalent parts of the book. Plus past holiday specials like the endless variations of *A Christmas Carol* as well as *It's a Wonderful Life / Knife* , *The Craft* films, and *Edgar Allan Poe* and *The Fall of the House of Usher* coverage – not to mention our coverage of both seasons of *Beacon 23* – Hugh Howey's other TV adaptation.

It’s one of the wildest scandals in Hollywood history: In 1951, major Hollywood producer Walter Wanger (Jon Hamm) went to prison for shooting an agent who he suspected was having an affair with Joan Bennett (Zooey Deschanel), Wanger’s actress wife. When the dust settled, Wanger was accepted back into Hollywood’s inner circle with open arms, while a puritan panic virtually ended Bennett’s career in movies and her family would never be the same. How did Joan — the youngest member of one of America’s most famous acting families, and one of the key femme fatales of 1940s film noir — end up a real-life fallen woman, paying a public price for her husband’s crimes? In this limited podcast series, Joan and Walter’s granddaughter/filmmaker Vanessa Hope, and film historian/podcaster Karina Longworth (You Must Remember This), tell the untold story of the Bennett/Wanger romance and professional partnership — a film noir played out in real life.
