This week on Salt Lake Dirt, I'm excited to welcome actress Lauren Ashley. Join us as we dive into a nostalgic conversation about the allure of vintage television and cinema, exploring how shows like I Love Lucy and The Golden Girls sparked her passion for old Hollywood.
Lauren shares her journey of discovering classic films during her childhood, recounting how late-night marathons on Nick at Nite opened her eyes to the golden age of television.
We discuss the impact of iconic figures like Lucille Ball and the connections to her own creative aspirations, as well as the thrill of meeting legendary stars and the importance of preserving film history.
From her experiences working on Hollywood Graveyard projects like The Tomb of Nosferatu to Graves from the Black Lagoon, Lauren reflects on the challenges and joys of filmmaking, including the excitement of collaborating with industry veterans.
We also touch on the unique community that surrounds classic film fandom and the significance of cemeteries as a peaceful retreat for those who appreciate the artistry of the past.
Thanks for tuning in!
