\nI wrote a piece originally for the Musings blog at Oscilloscope (it was included in a book!), and now lives on my site (since it’s off the Musings blog). It’s about the similarities between Busby Berkeley’s Gold Diggers of 1933<\/i> and Sucker Punch<\/i>. The piece was percolating for years. I love the title the Oscilloscope editors gave to it: Remember My Forgotten Women: The Dire Worlds of Sucker Punch<\/em> and Gold Diggers of 1933<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n
