The Next Reel Film Podcast • TruStory FM

Caged

November 6, 2025

We continue our Platinum Performances: The 1950 Best Actress Oscar Race series, celebrating the five great actresses nominated this year. We’re digging into John Cromwell’s Caged, starring Eleanor Parker.

A show about movies and how they connect.

We love movies. We’ve been talking about them, one movie a week, since 2011. It’s a lot of movies, that’s true, but we’re passionate about origins and performance, directors and actors, themes and genres, and so much more. So join the community, and let’s hear about your favorite movies, too.

When the movie ends, our conversation begins.
