Summary

This episode spoils Dorothy Arzner’s 1932 film Merrily We Go to Hell starring Frederic March and Sylvia Sidney. We’re back to pre-Code movies as we celebrate Women's History Month this year, so of course that means the movie is going to tackle themes of infidelity; stooping down to the level of your philandering, alcoholic spouse; and recognizing when it's time to cut your losses. Technically the full episode also spoils Alice Guy-Blache’s 1902 short La Fée aux Choux (The Cabbage Fairy) and its … interesting YouTube comment section.
