Welcome to Crime Scenes: A True Crime Movie Podcast! The show is hosted by us, Bolton Harris and Grace Baehren, two movie buffs, true crime addicts, former lawyers, and friends since college!!
Each week we recap a movie based on a true crime while also discussing additional facts about the real events gathered from our own research.
We promise to keep the banter fun, the stories interesting, and that there will never be a dull moment!
In Episode 1 Bolton and Grace recap the 2011 movie Bernie and discuss the facts of the true crime story that the movie is based on.
Bernie tells the story of the 1996 murder of Marjorie Nugent by Bernie Tiede in the small Texas town of Carthage. The film stars Jack Black, Matthew McConaughey, and Shirley MacLaine. It was directed by Richard Linklater and written by Linklater and Skip Hollandsworth. The movie is based on Hollandsworth's January 1998 article, "Midnight in the Garden of East Texas," published in Texas Monthly magazine.
