DepressedBergman @DannyDrinksWine - For the swimming pool sequence in 'He Ran all the Way' (1951)- the final film of John Garfield, a stunt double was hired for him, because he had suffered a heart attack several months before, and swimming underwater was not recommended for the heart. But on the day of filming, Garfield eventually decided to do the underwater swim himself. It took 10 takes for the scene. Shelley Winters, later in her life felt that he was unconsciously hoping for another heart attack while doing the scene due to the intense stress he was under because of the HUAC Hearings.
-
Shelley Winters explaining about the making of the Swimming pool scene:
-
"James Wong Howe's camera was at the side of the pool above the water. The director had arranged for a stuntman double to do Garfield's swimming. Garfield had had a severe heart attack at the Beverly Hills Tennis Club a few months earlier. I knew that underwater swimming was especially taxing to the heart.
-
I rehearsed with the double, but when we came to the actual shooting of the scene, Garfield refused to let the double do it. We had to do the scene about ten times to get the lighting in the water right. It was scary and unnecessary. When John came up out of the water, the camera was on the back of his head and on my face, and all you saw on film was a figure moving through twenty feet of water, then surfacing.
-
Back then, I could not understand why John insisted on doing this dangerous shot himself. In retrospect, it seems almost as if he unconsciously wanted another heart attack. I didn't understand the political trouble he was in. I just knew that Warner Brothers, by breaking his contract and casting him adrift, were destroying one of their most valuable properties and breaking his heart."
('Shelley Winters - Shelley II', 1989)

Disaffected @DisaffectedPod - You should preferentially distrust nurses. I know that sounds shocking because you're still working on the old image of a profession of caring women.
-
That's not been true for a long time.
-
Nursing is a sink for pathological personalities. The number of borderline and narcissistic and sociopathic nurses today is noticeable. You can't not see it unless you've decided not to see it.
-
It's not mysterious either. Pathological personalities, especially female, are attracted to "caring" professions.
-
Why?
-
1. Automatic public trust. Those of you "shocked" by what I'm saying are doing exactly what they want you to. They're trading on an outdated image.
-
2. Social camouflage to hide their wicked behavior and to make any criticism of them look "unhinged."
-
3. The ability to control others, especially life and death.
-
Same reason you see so many insane sociopathic teachers and social workers.
