Behind the glamour of Old Hollywood lies a darker story, one of secret affairs, scandals, and tragic fates.
From Grace Kelly’s tendency to pursue married men and break up marriages to Joan Crawford’s scandalous casting-couch encounters, from Veronica Lake’s decline into alcoholism and homelessness to Peg Entwistle’s tragic leap from the Hollywood sign, these women lived lives as dramatic off-screen as the roles they played. Gia Scala was found dead at just 38 after a fatal mix of pills and alcohol, Marie McDonald suffered through seven failed marriages before her own overdose, and Joan Bennett was caught in a Hollywood scandal when her husband shot her agent in a jealous rage, reminders that in Old Hollywood, glamour often masked heartbreak and ruin.
Packed with scandal, betrayal, and tragedy, Hollywood’s Fallen Women pulls back the curtain on the stars who burned too brightly and paid the ultimate price.
