In Minute 45 of The Whole Shebang, Jenny and Mike talk about Mandy’s reaction to Brian’s staged assassination, his prolonged absence from the pop culture scene and how it jibes with Jenny’s “there is no Brian Slade” theory, we take a look at the differing careers of Christian Bale and Toni Collette and examine what this has to tell us about institutionalized sexism in Hollywood, and how the legacy of glam differs in our 1984 and Velvet Goldmine’s 1984.
