Here are some chilling old Hollywood scandals.  

Lana Turner's mobster boyfriend, Johnny Stampanato, died at the hands of her daughter during a domestic dispute. But some believe that Lana was the guilty one—that she stabbed him and then forced her daughter to take the blame. 

Errol Flynn was accused of sleeping with two 17 year old girls. He even went to trial for it, but that didn't seem to dissuade him from pursuing teenagers. He once said, "I like my whiskey old and my women young." 

On the set of Howard Hughes' film Hell's Angels, one mechanic and three stunt pilots lost their lives.  Because he wanted realistic aerial footage, Hughes pressured his pilots into performing extremely dangerous stunts. 

Superman actor George Reeves was said to have taken his own life, but there were also rumors of foul play. Many believed that his affair with Tony Mannix was at the heart of it, and that her husband, a Hollywood Fixer, had had him killed. 

America exiled Ingrid Bergman because of her affair with Roberto Rossellini, and one politician called her a "powerful influence for evil."

Really Bad Movies With Really Great Endings That Made It All Worthwhile

Some movies are a chore. The pacing is off. The writing is clunky. The ideas are better than the execution. You spend most of the runtime wondering who signed off on this. And then the ending hits—and suddenly you get it. These films didn’t magically become good, but their final moments were strong enough to justify sitting through the rest.

Movie Teachers Who Completely Rewired How We See School

Somewhere along the way, teacher movies stopped being about “kids behaving badly” and started being about everything else—identity, confidence, ambition, class, race, grief, hope, and that one teacher who makes you feel like you’re not doomed. These films didn’t just show classrooms. They made school look like the place where your whole future gets decided in a single speech, a single lesson, or a single moment when someone finally says, “I see you”.

When Shania Twain lost her voice to Lyme disease, it looked like the end—but science and strength gave her a second act.

For a stretch in the late 90s, Shania Twain didn’t just dominate country music—she bent pop culture around her will. Then, almost without warning, that voice vanished. Tours stopped, albums stalled, and one of the most powerful vocalists of her generation disappeared from public view. To fans, it felt mysterious. To Shania, it felt terrifying.
