Hang onto your slipcases, because Blake Howard and the legendary @RufusTSuperfly aka Tom Reagan's Hat discuss the swashbuckling delights in the choreography and sound design of Criterion's new release, The Three Musketeers / The Four Musketeers: Two Films by Richard Lester.The Three Musketeers / The Four Musketeers: Two Films by Richard LesterAlexandre Dumas's immortal tale of adventure and camaraderie received perhaps the finest of its numerous screen adaptations with this two-part swashbuckling spectacular from A Hard Day's Night director Richard Lester. Featuring Michael York, Oliver Reed, Frank Finlay, and Richard Chamberlain as the swaggering swordsmen, who thrust and parry their way through courtly intrigue in seventeenth-century France, The Three Musketeers and The Four Musketeers are also graced with an all-star supporting cast that includes Raquel Welch, Faye Dunaway, Geraldine Chaplin, and Charlton Heston. Lester's exuberant epic breathes new life into an oft-told classic through its boisterous slapstick invention, its meticulous attention to period detail, and a sense of pure, unbridled bravado that is thrilling to behold.Richard Lester's spirited adaptation of Alexandre Dumas's timeless novel immediately distinguished itself from previous film versions with its irresistible lightheartedness. It follows the brash, young wannabe musketeer d'Artagnan (Michael York) as he travels from the French countryside to Paris and befriends Athos (Oliver Reed), Porthos (Frank Finlay), and Aramis (Richard Chamberlain), famed swordsmen whom he must help to stop the conniving Cardinal Richelieu (Charlton Heston) and his plot to undermine the king. The Three Musketeers sweeps viewers away with its exquisite sets and costumes, chivalric romance, and breathless duels punctuated by the ingenious physical comedy that was Lester's trademark.It may be “all for one and one for all,” but it took director Richard Lester two films to contain the sweeping spectacle of Alexandre Dumas's swashbuckling adventure. This sequel—shot simultaneously with The Three Musketeers, since they were originally conceived as a single film—dials down the comic high jinks that distinguished the first installment in favor of a more somber tone, as our heroes are drawn into a deadly revenge plot orchestrated by the seductive Milady de Winter (a deliciously wicked Faye Dunaway). Upping the psychological stakes and deepening our sense of the characters, The Four Musketeers brings this beloved tale of honor and friendship to a close with a rousing emotional flourish.SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew 4K digital restorations, with uncompressed monaural soundtracksIn the 4K UHD edition: Two 4K UHD discs of the films presented in Dolby Vision HDR and two Blu-rays with the films and special featuresTwo for One, a new documentary by critic David CairnsThe Saga of the Musketeers (2002), a two-part documentary featuring interviews with cast and crew membersThe Making of “The Three Musketeers,” a 1973 featurette with behind-the-scenes footage of director Richard LesterTrailersEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingPLUS: An essay by film critic Stephanie ZacharekNew illustration by Mattias AdolfssonThe legendary @RufusTSuperfly aka Tom Reagan's Hat can be found here.Support: JOIN THE ONE HEAT MINUTE PATREON FOR AS LITTLE AS $1 A MONTHFollow the hosts:Blake Howard - Twitter & One Heat Minute Website Alexei Toliopoulos - Twitter & The Last Video StoreSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/one-heat-minute-productions/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Charles Burnett talks ‘Killer of Sheep’ 4K restoration, and the film’s lasting influence After a theatrical release in select theaters by Janus Films, the Criterion Collection now introduces the new 4K restoration of Charles Burnett’s 1977 feature debut film, Killer of Sheep, into its library. The film follows a family in Watts, with the father in this household being Stan, who works in a slaughterhouse. Burnett's understanding of working-class family dynamics makes for a story that’s as relatable as it is emotionally devastating at moments. These complex themes portrayed in film have served as inspiration for the likes of Barry Jenkins, whose Oscar-winning film Moonlight offers a similar blend of cinematic storytelling through the lives of adults and children. We’ll dig deeper into the film by speaking with its filmmaker, Charles Burnett. The 4K restoration of ‘Killer of Sheep’ is out now in Blu-ray and 4K UHD; to read more about the special features included, and to purchase the film, click here.

He's cooking our garbage! We're joined by physical media legends Jack Bishop & Corey Clifford  (Cinema Possessed) to talk John Hughes's 1989 John Candy classic Uncle Buck, recently released on 4K UHD from Kino Lorber. Find us on Instagram!

In the pantheon of great Van Damme action flicks from the 1980s and 90s, 'Hard Target' (1993) undoubtedly stands out as one of his best. As hunky Cajun ex-Marine, Chance Boudreaux, the mullet-wearing 'Muscles from Brussels' struts his more sensitive side while also exhibiting the sort of superhero antics that would put Schwarzenegger to shame, like firing a pistol while standing on a moving motorbike and - famously - punching a snake. He has his director to thank for one of his most iconic roles: John Woo, the 'heroic bloodshed' maestro fresh from his ballistic Hong Kong masterpiece, 'Hard Boiled' (1992), and determined to make an impact in his American directorial debut. The resulting concoction is pure Woo - a slow-motion bullet ballet of epic proportions which cemented his position as one of cinema's greatest directors of action. Joining me and 'Life of Action' author Mike Fury to discuss this milestone in movie mayhem is Christina Newland, lead film critic at the i Paper and a contributing editor to Empire Magazine. As three dedicated Jean-Claude Van Damme fans, we unpick the reasons why we think his appeal is more inclusive than that of his action contemporaries - people like Sylvester Stallone, Steven Seagal, and Chuck Norris - and the lasting legacy that John Woo has had on action cinema. This episode was recorded live at the Nova Cinema in Woking, UK, in November 2024 as part of the British Film Institute's Art of Action season. A huge thank you to the crew at the Nova Cinema and the people of Woking who attended the show, and the Independent Cinema Office and Film Hub South East for helping to organise the event.LINKSChristina Newland on Blue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/christinalefou.bsky.socialChristina Newland's website: https://www.christinanewland.co.uk/Christina Newland on Substack: https://substack.com/@christinanewlandSubscribe to 'Sisters Under the Mink' on Substack: https://christinanewland.substack.com/Buy 'She Found It at the Movies: Women writers on sex, desire and cinema': https://www.waterstones.com/book/she-found-it-at-the-movies/christina-newland/9781912157181'Act Like a Man: Jean-Claude Van Damme' by Christina Newland: https://mubi.com/en/notebook/posts/act-like-a-man-jean-claude-van-dammeBuy 'Hard Target' on 4K UHD from Kino Lorber: https://kinolorber.com/product/hard-target-4k-uhd 'Hard Target' review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/HardTarget1993Jean-Claude Van Damme profile on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/VanDammeKFMGJean-Claude Van Damme on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jcvd/John Woo on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/john_woo_filmmaker/'John Woo's Next Film Is ‘A Half-Musical' With Sparks', Empire Magazine: https://www.empireonline.com/movies/news/john-woo-half-musical-sparks-exclusive/'Celebrate Renowned Hong Kong Action Classics, Storytellers, And Film Icons With Shout!

Rumors about Warner Bros. releasing the Connery Eon Bond films have been swirling since late last year.  With pre-orders live on Amazon yet few other details revealed thus far, we speak with the preeminent expert on physical media, James Bond aficionado Spencer Draper (aka Damn Fool Idealistic Crusader on social media and YouTube). Spencer talks about his thoughts, concerns, and hopes for this particular 4K UHD release and why this may very well rank among the most important disc reviews he's ever done on his YouTube channel. First in keeping with this podcast's tradition of sketch comedy, however, we check in with the dearly departed "Sean Connery" to see what's on his mind. Later on, I also speak to Spencer about all the latest developments in the world of Bond including the essential releases of the La-La Land discs and of course the Amazon buyout.

On this week's show we review ten innovations we feel had the most impact on how we consume entertainment in our homes. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: DIRECTV STREAM introduces new slimmed-down channel plans Sling TV loses 50,000 subscribers to close out 2024 Amazon Announces Plans To Unveil New Alexa Devices in 2025 Phillips expands its Roku TV range with a $1,300 65-inch OLED Other: Friendly TV   15" Pix-Star Digital Frame Skylight Digital Frame Ten Innovations that have Transformed Our Home Theaters Over the last decade, several innovations have significantly transformed the home theater experience. This week we will review ten innovations we feel had the most impact on how we consume entertainment in our homes. 4K HDR and 8K Resolution - The proliferation of 4K UHD content, along with High Dynamic Range (HDR) technology, has improved visual quality significantly, providing more vivid colors and enhanced contrast. Three-Dimensional Sound - Unlike traditional surround sound systems that rely on channels (e.g., 5.1 or 7.1 setups), object-based audio allows sound designers to place sounds as individual objects in a 3D space. This results in a more immersive audio experience, making viewers feel as if sound is coming from all around them, including overhead. Streaming Devices and Services - The rise of smart TVs and streaming devices has made it easier to access a vast library of content without the need for physical media, further enhancing the home theater experience. Flexible Speaker Configuration - Users are no longer limited to a fixed number of speakers. With object-based audio, systems can scale from simple soundbars to complex multi-speaker setups, adapting to the room's acoustics and the viewer's preferences. Enhanced Content Availability - Many streaming services and Blu-ray discs now offer content mixed in Atmos or similar formats, increasing the accessibility of high-quality audio experiences. Home Theater Integration - The growth of AV receivers and sound systems optimized for these formats has made it easier for consumers to integrate advanced audio technology into their home theater setups without needing extensive technical knowledge. Smart Home Integration  - The integration of home theater systems with smart home devices (e.g., voice assistants, smart lighting) allows for a more personalized and convenient viewing experience. Projection Technology  - Advancements in projector technology, including ultra-short throw projectors and improvements in brightness and contrast ratios, have made it possible to achieve a cinematic experience in various home sizes. Advanced Room Correction - Room correction technologies have improved significantly, allowing for better sound calibration in different environments. This ensures that the audio performance is optimized for the specific acoustics of your room. New Panel Technology - OLED, LED, Mini and Micro LED have not only improved the picture we look at but have brought down prices to the point where you can buy a 75” TV for a few hundred dollars. And the worst of these TVs are better than the best TVs that were available at the start of the HD revolution. Of this list, which do you think had the biggest impact?

The Oscars may be over, but we're keeping the party going with a live roundtable review of Amadeus--which racked up a symphony of statues 40 years ago!In Milos Forman's adaptation of Peter Shaffer's play, F. Murray Abraham plays Italian composer Antonio Salieri, whose dreams of musical immortality are shattered when he encounters child prodigy Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Tom Hulce). The film opens with Salieri in an asylum, confessing to a priest that he'd killed Mozart years earlier--and much of Amadeus takes us behind the scenes of their tumultuous relationship.This was a first-time watch for Ian and, as you'll soon see, Amadeus is another one of those "They Should've Just Stopped Making Movies After This Movie" movies.
