As a young mom, Amy Koppelman struggled with severe postpartum depression, haunted by dark thoughts of what she might do to herself or her child. One unusual part of her recovery was writing a novel about a struggling mom who lived out Amy's worst fears.   Now, 20 years later, that critically-acclaimed novel, A Mouthful of Air, has been re-published and Amy also is screenwriter and director of a new feature-length film by the same name, starring Academy Award-winning actress Amanda Seyfried. Both the book and the Sony film are just part of Amy's passionate effort to reduce the stigma of mental illness and increase understanding of maternal depression and how friends and family can support mothers in their recovery. Don't miss this unique and important conversation about an issue so many individuals and families confront!   HAVE YOU OR SOMEONE CLOSE TO YOU EXPERIENCED MATERNAL DEPRESSION? How did friends and family respond? And, to what extent were those responses helpful? In what ways do you think social media, with so many staged images of “perfectly happy moms,” may make it even harder for women to admit feelings of anxiety and depression?   WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT MATERNAL DEPRESSION? ❉ MATERNAL DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY: ESSENTIAL INFORMATION ABOUT INCIDENCE, IMPACT AND TREATMENT. It's important for all of us to understand the signs of maternal depression and anxiety, safe and effective treatment options and how family and friends can help. Psychiatrist Michelle Wiersgalla and psychologist Gabrielle Mauren join Marti & Erin for an informative and candid discussion everyone should hear.

An Academy Award Winning Make-Up and Effects Artist. A legend with an absolutely incredible resumé. My guest on Episode 232 of The Brooklyn Blast Furnace Podcast is John Caglione Jr. He earned his Academy Award for his make-up effects on "Dick Tracy" in 1990. He created Heath Ledger's "Joker" make-up in "The Dark Knight". He is Al Pacino's "go-to" guy and has worked with him on a ton of projects including "The Irishman", "Heat", "Paterno", "Insomnia" and "Donnie Brasco" to name a few. Dick Smith aka "The Godfather of Make-up" took John under his wing and gave him a shot. He has gone on to work on hundreds of movies and television shows combined including, "The Departed", "American Gangster", "Fatal Attraction", "The Amazing Spiderman" and "Amistad". His early experiences were on helping to create the "Coneheads" make-up on "Saturday Night Live", "Friday the 13th Part 2", "C.H.U.D.", "Basket Case" and "Scanners". Thats all just scratching the surface. His humility and gratitude are second to none and this was a lot of fun to do. Enjoy.

Harry Shum Jr. has proven himself to be a dynamic force in Hollywood. While he is perhaps best known for his role as Mike Chang on the hit series Glee, Shum has consistently embodied complex and meaningful characters, bringing depth and magnetic energy to the screen. Shum was recently seen as the lead in Universal's romantic drama ALL MY LIFE, starring opposite Jessica Rothe. Inspired by real events, the film follows a couple whose wedding plans are thrown off course when the groom is diagnosed with liver cancer. All My Life released in theaters on Friday, December 4th, 2020. Also, upcoming, Shum stars in the technological thriller, BROADCAST SIGNAL INTRUSION, opposite Chris Sullivan and Kelley Mack. Inspired by actual broadcast interruptions that occurred in the Windy City in the late 1980s, and remain unsolved to this day, the film is an unsettling journey into our collective technological nightmares. He will soon be seen in A24's Sci-Fi film, EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE, starring opposite Michelle Yeoh, Stephanie Hsu, James Hong, Ke Huy Quan, and Jamie Lee Curtis, with the cryptic synopsis: It's about a 55 year old Chinese woman trying to finish her taxes. He recently wrapped production in Vancouver on McG's production for Netflix's LOVE HARD. This romantic comedy follows an LA girl, unlucky in love, who falls for an East Coast guy on a dating app and decides to surprise him for Christmas, only to discover that she's been catfished. Shum will be seen alongside Nina Dobrev and Jimmy O. Yang. His previous film credits include Warner Bros' massive hit CRAZY RICH ASIANS. The film, which features a historic all-Asian cast, was nominated for 2 Golden Globes, won Best Comedy at the Critics' Choice Awards, and was nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture at the 2019 SAG awards. He also starred in the Netflix Original feature CROUCHING TIGER HIDDEN DRAGON II - THE GREEN DESTINY, the sequel to the Academy Award-winning martial arts film, Crouching Tiger, set 20 years later. Other notable projects on the silver screen include ESCAPE PLAN 3: DEVIL'S STATION opposite Sylvester Stallone; BURN opposite Suki Waterhouse and Josh Hutcherson; CROUCHING TIGER HIDDEN DRAGON: SWORD OF DESTINY, REVENGE OF THE GREEN DRAGONS, MOMS' NIGHT OUT; STEP UP 2: THE STREETS, and WHITE FROG. Shum has numerous TV credits as well, including the fan favorite SHADOWHUNTERS on Freeform, in which he starred as the eccentric warlock MAGNUS BANE, for which he won the People's Choice Awards Male TV Star in 2018. The series is based on the bestselling YA fantasy series The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare and follows a teenage girl who discovers on her 18th birthday that she comes from a long line of Shadowhunters, a group of human-angel hybrids who hunt down demons. In addition, Shum starred in, produced and co-choreographed The LXD (LEGION OF EXTRAORDINARY DANCERS), an online dance adventure created by director Jon M. Chu (STEP UP 3D). Passionate about children, Shum has partnered with The Conscious Kid Organization, which focuses on education, research, and policy dedicated to equality and promoting healthy racial identity development in youth while supporting organizations, families, and educators in taking action to disrupt racism in young children. Shum's heart also lies in working with the Anti-Racist Children's Book Education Fund initiative through this organization. Born in San Jose, Costa Rica and raised in both Northern and Southern California, Shum began dancing in high school and soon after discovered acting. He currently resides in Los Angeles. ABOUT BROADCAST SIGNAL INTRUSION starring Harry Shum Jr. (Glee, Crazy Rich Asians), Chris Sullivan (This Is Us) , and Kelley Mack (The Walking Dead), in theaters and On Demand October 22nd While logging tapes of decades-old TV broadcasts, video archivist James (Harry Shum Jr.) discovers a surreal and disturbing clip that James believes is the product of a mysterious broadcast signal hacking. His discovery takes a sinister turn when he tracks down similar broadcast intrusions that send him on an obsessive mission. Now James must confront two very real possibilities: that the videos may be clues to a crime beyond all comprehension; and that whoever was behind them may be very aware that James is coming uncomfortably close to the truth. BROADCAST SIGNAL INTRUSION was inspired by actual broadcast interruptions that occurred in Chicago in the late 1980s, and remain unsolved to this day. The film is an unsettling journey into our collective technological nightmares, confronting our deepest, darkest fears of both man and machine.

We return home after the second World War to talk about the 1946 best picture winner ‘The Best Years of Our Lives'. Our cold open digs into the thematic storytelling in a movie's title and what they can imply to an audience before and after watching. It's impossible to speak about this post war film without honoring the wonderful performances by the three leading actors:  Fredric March, Dana Andrews, and Harold Russell. This year's Academy Awards limited 5 nominees in each category which lead to a lot of snubs and omissions.  We even discussed if fellow Best Picture nominee ‘It's a Wonderful Life' deserved the win over the post war melodrama. We question why Dana Andrews wasn't nominated for Best Actor and discuss why one of the actors won two Oscars for the same performance! This year marks the 75th anniversary of the classic 1946 film “The Best Years of Our Lives.” so join us in celebrating this beautiful picture!  If you like this episode and the show, please leave a review!

Pardon the audio this episode, we had some telekinetic difficulties but it's not like we burned down the prom or anything. This week we're queening out on Oscar nominee Piper Laurie as one of horror's most monstrous mothers, Margaret White in 1976's "Carrie." (The question is even posed as to whether she should have won the Academy Award over Beatrice Straight in "Network" that year!) We also have much to say about Broadway legend Betty Buckley in her film debut as Miss Collins, a sympathetic gym teacher fond of a face journey and a cigarette in the principal's office. Plus: Sue Snell and Tommy Ross as "good kids," Nancy Allen as the iconically evil Chris, John Travolta as her flunky hunk, Ellen Travolta as a brief tangent that has nothing to do with "Carrie," and praise for Pino, Priscilla Pointer and that perfectly bonkers ending.

It's one of three films to win the Big 5 at the Academy Awards, Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor and Best Actress. Jonathan Demme's directing is masterful, Jodie Foster is exceptional and Anthony Hopkins gives one of the most terrifying performances in film history. Let's break down this masterpiece...

We all know and love M. Night Shyamalan as a world renowned director, producer and actor who was labeled “the next Spielberg” by Newsweek in 2002. His films have grossed over $3 billion globally with cult classics like The Sixth Sense which received nominations for the Academy Award for Best Director and Best Original Screenplay, Signs, The Last Airbender, and The Unbreakable Series. We may also be fans of Saleka, his daughter who is a singer songwriter and wrote an original song for his recent release, Old, with a voice smooth as silk reminiscent of old school R&B. But today, I'm honored to interview M. Night's wife, Bhavna Vaswani Shyamalan, who is the silent strength of the family and is the glue who is keeping it all together. For more than 15 years, Bhavna Shyamalan, PhD, has served in her role as co-founder and vice-president of the M. Night Shyamalan Foundation. The foundation focuses on discovering and supporting grassroots leaders around the world who are moving depressed communities out of poverty and oppression. These global leaders are empowering their communities by supporting social justice, equality, and access to basic needs such as food, water, and education. A deep belief in human-dignity and freedom as a birthright, as well as in our joint responsibility to become participants in the fight for social equity and justice, have been Dr. Shyamalan's driving force in creating and steering the efforts of the foundation. With an international upbringing and global perspective, Dr. Shyamalan has developed a keen awareness of the power of poverty to determine the life course of individuals, families, and communities by severely limiting opportunity and choice. The foundation leaders work to eliminate those barriers. More recently, Dr. Shyamalan has focused her foundation on helping the most disenfranchised communities; the forgotten and “disposable' people entrapped and exploited by modern day slavery and human trafficking. Although born in India, Bhavna was raised in Hong Kong before her family moved to the U.S. An immigrant herself, Dr. Shyamalan is keenly aware of the challenges posed to immigrants in any new country. Having travelled widely, however, her exposure to different people and cultures has not only reinforced her belief in the gift diversity brings, but also deepened her commitment to valuing each individual life. Dr. Shyamalan oversees the foundation's international grants, the implementation of its vision and mission, strategic growth, fundraising, and overall operations. Additionally, DR. B (as she is known in the fitness world) is co-owner at Vibe Vault Fit, a boutique fitness & wellness studio in PA, and has been teaching Dance Fitness classes since 2011. Dr.B's believes working out can be inspired, and should address health and fitness in all aspects, including body, mind, spirit. In addition to teaching dance fitness classes, Dr. B also manages the “mind” and “spirit” side of Vibe Vault Fit, running workshops, and talking about how to uplift our lives through the Vibe Vault Fit podcasts and blogs. Her vision for Vibe Vault Fit is to promote a warm community, that will walk together toward a healthier, more fulfilling, and extraordinary life. Dr. B sees wellness, like happiness, as a mindset. Her goal is to help you make your own wellness a priority and claim the life that is waiting for you. Earlier in her career, Dr. Shyamalan worked as a therapist in the counseling centers of Swarthmore College and St. Joseph's University. She earned her doctorate in Clinical Developmental Psychology from Bryn Mawr College and her B.A. in psychology from New York University.

In Episode 11, Bolton and Grace recap the 2002 film, Catch Me If You Can, and discuss the facts of the true crime story that the movie is based on. The movie was written by Jeff Nathanson and directed by Steven Spielberg and is based on the autobiography of the same name written by Frank Abagnale Jr. with Stan Redding . The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio as Frank Abagnale Jr., a self-proclaimed con man who contends that he successfully performed cons worth millions of dollars by posing as a Pan American World Airways pilot, a doctor, and a prosecutor - all before his 19th birthday. Tom Hanks plays Carl Hanratty, an FBI agent who chases and eventually apprehends Frank Abagnale Jr. Christopher Walken plays Frank Abagnale Sr. and Nathalie Baye plays Frank Jr.'s mother. There are cameos from various other famous actors and actresses and viewers will enjoy seeing who pops up next. The film is fast-paced and entertaining, but after reading the book “The Greatest Hoax on Earth: Catching Truth While We Still Can” by Alan C. Logan, viewers may be disappointed to compare investigative research to Frank Abagnale Jr. 's story. This is definitely our most meta episode yet!Also, be sure to check out Watching Netflix Without You and the Vaginance podcast wherever you get your podcasts!Sources: Catch Me If You Can (2002)Abagnale, Frank Jr. with Stan Redding.

The Post's chief film critic Ann Hornaday speaks with Academy Award-winning filmmaker Ron Howard and actor Clint Howard abouttheir new memoir “The Boys: A Memoir of Hollywood and Family” which chronicles their upbringing in Hollywood.

The Global Supply Chain Is A Mess  One of the continuing consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic is the disruption of supply chains. The global supply chain is slowing down at a time when demand is high. The Takeaway spoke to Derek Thompson, staff writer for The Atlantic, about the complex issues causing shortages on store shelves and slowdowns in services. Are Toys Becoming More Gender Neutral? Last week, LEGO — the world's largest toy maker — announced it would make its toys more gender neutral. And earlier this month, the state of California passed a law requiring large retailers to display toys and childcare items in gender-neutral ways. All of this comes as the debate intensifies over whether toys create and perpetuate gender stereotypes. We spoke with Elizabeth Sweet, assistant professor of sociology at San Jose State University to look at both developments, the history of gendered toys, the push to make toys more gender neutral, and more. Terence Blanchard is First Black Composer at Metropolitan Opera House Terence Blanchard joined today's show.You may already be familiar with Terence Blanchard as a 6-time Grammy winner, jazz trumpet player and composer of over 40 film scores, earning him a BAFTA and Academy Award nominee for Best Original Score for Spike Lee's 2018 film, BlacKkKlansman. Blanchard also happens to write operas. He composed Fire Shut Up in My Bones, based on Charles Blow's memoir of the same title, and it is the first opera by a Black composer to be housed at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City.  For transcripts, see individual segment pages.

And earlier this month, the state of California passed a law requiring large retailers to display toys and childcare items in gender-neutral ways. All of this comes as the debate intensifies over whether toys create and perpetuate gender stereotypes. We spoke with Elizabeth Sweet, assistant professor of sociology at San Jose State University to look at both developments, the history of gendered toys, the push to make toys more gender neutral, and more. Terence Blanchard is First Black Composer at Metropolitan Opera House Terence Blanchard joined today's show.You may already be familiar with Terence Blanchard as a 6-time Grammy winner, jazz trumpet player and composer of over 40 film scores, earning him a BAFTA and Academy Award nominee for Best Original Score for Spike Lee's 2018 film, BlacKkKlansman. Blanchard also happens to write operas. He composed Fire Shut Up in My Bones, based on Charles Blow's memoir of the same title, and it is the first opera by a Black composer to be housed at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City.  For transcripts, see individual segment pages.

MATCHES, MATCHES, WE DON'T NEED NO STINKIN' MATCHES. Join me and my guest filmmaker David Au (Eat With Me) as we discuss The Wedding Banquet and Late Spring, what we're calling matchmaking Asian style. “She'll make lots of babies”. Nag, nag, nag. That's all parents do. Clean your room. Get married. Get good grades. Get married. Don't stay out late. Get married. …Sounds like it's time for Episode 66 of Pop Art, the podcast where my guest chooses a movie from popular culture, and I'll select a film from the more art/classic/indie side of cinema with a connection to it. For this episode, I am happy to welcome as my guest, filmmaker David Au, who has chosen as his selection Ang Lee's breakthrough film, the farcical The Wedding Banquet, while I have chosen Yasujirō Ozu's classic shōshimin-eiga drama, Late Spring, both films about parents trying to get their children married. And in this episode, we answer such questions as: What is a post-gay film? What is a shōshimin-eiga film? What did Emma Thompson say about Ang Lee? What censorship problems did Late Spring face? Where was the lead for The Wedding Banquet discovered (hint: it wasn't Schwabbs)? What happened in 1947 and 1948 in regard to marriages in Japan? In what way was The Wedding Banquet a more successful film financially than Jurassic Park? Where does Late Spring land on the Sight and Sound poll? What was unusual about Ang Lee winning an Academy Award for best director? Check out David's film Eat With Me on Amazon.

What a Creep: Casey Affleck & James Franco Season 13, Episode 1 A Duo of Acting Creeps   Casey Affleck is a successful actor, writer, and director who was nominated for an Academy Award for the Best Supporting Actor in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford in 2007. He also had roles in a string of hit films like To Do For, Good Will Hunting, Oceans 11, 12 & 13, plus Gone Baby Gone directed by his older brother Ben. In 2009, he and his buddy Joaquin Phoenix decided to direct a Spinal Tap-Esque film where Joaquin would play a hyped-up version of himself becoming a hip hop star after winning an Oscar for Walk the Line. It was called I'm Still Here and was a flop in many ways, artistically and financially (he used his own money to fund it) plus, he was later sued by two women who worked for him for sexual assault and continual harassment on the set by him and his buddies on the set. This lawsuit has not stopped the press fawning over his talent. In this episode, we will talk about the two lawsuits and their aftermath. Trigger warning: sexual assault, sexual harassment, and gaslighting.

He was nominated for Best Actor in 2010 for the movie “127 Hours,” and won a Golden Globe for Best Actor for The Disaster Artist.  He's directed almost 30 low-budget indie features and shorts, written books, and taught film classes at New York University, the University of Southern California, UCLA, Palo Alto High School, Playhouse West, and Studio 4.

"I'm gonna get my Liberace records!"  We watched Misery (1990) and we still feel all oogie.  From master horror author Stephen King, Misery give us absolute lunatic Annie Wilkes brought to us in an Academy Award winning performance by Kathy Bates.  The ultimate super-fan, Wilkes takes obsession to new heights when she holds romance novelist Paul Sheldon (James Caan) hostage after a near fatal car accident. This movie is so well acted we even buy Sonny Corleone as a romance novelist! Do we all have a little Annie Wilkes in us? Hopefully not too much.  But I'll be damned if I'm watching a movie with a less than cohesive plot and I want to just scream... HE DIDN'T GET OUT OF THE COCK - A - DOODIE CAR!

Our Special Guest Today is Chef Suzanne Tracht, Owner of JAR + Actor Anne Heche Zagat Says of Chef Suzanne: “Walk into Suzanne Tracht's modern chophouse restaurant today, and it's as good as it was when it opened in 2001. The wood-paneled walls, the chic mushroomlike light fixtures, the warm tones — this dining room is recognizable from any angle, especially when it's used as a set for movies like "La La Land." Even when full, there's a soft hum to the place that makes dinner here great for business meetings, dates, and family gatherings. The bar is a good option for drop-ins, especially for martinis and complimentary potato chips and horseradish dip. Chef Suzanne Tracht has built JAR into one of the most beloved and successful restaurants in Los Angeles. Drawing inspiration from classic American comfort cuisine, JAR is a pilgrimage for passionate eaters and wine lovers from across the country. It's my favorite kind of restaurant: A classic chophouse imagined as only the great Chef Suzanne Tracht could imagine. Jar's interior evokes the aura of a timeless supper club, JAR has become an indelible part of the city's culture, even starring as a memorable location in the Academy Award-winning classic La La Land during a pivotal dramatic moment. Utilizing the very best in local ingredients, Chef Tracht delights in taking classic chophouse dishes—deviled eggs, blue cheese wedge salad, and prime steaks The widespread praise for JAR over the years includes acclaim from the late Pulitzer Prize-winning Los Angeles Times and LA Weekly restaurant critic Jonathan Gold, who gave JAR a coveted spot on his “101 Best Restaurants in LA” list every year since its inception. “Tracht's gift lies in her ability to reproduce the old tastes within a modern context,” wrote Mr. Gold, “so that the sautéed pea tendrils with garlic make as much sense as the creamed spinach, the duck-fried rice as the mashed potatoes, and the char siu-style pork chop as the prime filet mignon.” Chef Suzanne Tracht Prepares a Menu of her Favorite Dishes for the Thanksgiving Holiday Jar, present Thanksgiving Dinner Take-Out ready for pick up on Wednesday, November 25, 2021, with easy instructions for heating and preparing for the holiday home table. The menu features dishes inspired by Suzanne's family traditions and American holiday flavors.

Are we ready to talk about Keanu's best role in cinema? Ok, so it might not be exactly that, but I have a LOT of love for Francis Ford Coppola's lavish, sublime and gorgeous adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula. So much so that I don't even mind Keanu's stilted performance - it's no way as bad as many say it is, although that might be my bias shining through. It's a visual treat for the eyes, with stunning costume design by first-time costume designer Eiko Ishioka and incredibly practical in-camera special effects, headed by first-time visual effects director Roman Coppola (son of Francis Ford Coppola), as well as an unforgettable lead performance by the one and only Gary Oldman as Count Dracula; an icon of literature, TV and cinema for almost 100 years. This movie showed us that love, lust, sexual desire and terror are not mutually exclusive, and Coppola's vision would not only give us the only Academy Award-winning adaptation of the Dracula story, but also shape the way vampires (and the legendary Count himself) are portrayed in modern cinema. I love you too much to condemn you. I would love to hear your thoughts on Bram Stoker's Dracula! GET IN TOUCH....

This week we're decoding with the man who wrote the code - Terence Blanchard, composer of Fire Shut Up in My Bones. Not only is it the work that reopened the Met after its 18-month pandemic shutdown, but it's also the first opera by a Black composer ever to be performed there. Based on the 2014 memoir of the same name by New York Times columnist Charles M. Blow, Fire Shut Up in My Bones is a coming-of-age story about his childhood in a tiny town in northwest Louisiana.  From a young age, Charles knew he was different, not like his brothers or the other boys. After being sexually assaulted by his older cousin, he was consumed by shame, and especially when he began to feel attraction toward boys as well as girls. The South was not the place to be questioning one's sexual identity as a Black man in the 1970s and 80s. But in the aria “Peculiar Grace,” he puts his questions aside and looks forward to a brighter future. Host Rhiannon Giddens and her guests explore the experience of feeling like an outsider, and the life-changing path toward self-acceptance. Composer Terence Blanchard is a multiple Grammy-winning composer and jazz trumpeter. Fire Shut Up In My Bones is his second opera, and it premiered at Opera Theatre of St. Louis in 2019. He has scored countless films, and is known for his many collaborations with the film director Spike Lee, including most recently Da 5 Bloods and BlacKkKlansman. Each was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Score. He credits his father for his love of opera, and he has a particular fondness for Puccini's La bohème. Baritone Will Liverman is singing the role of Charles in the Met's production of Fire Shut Up In My Bones. While he was sitting on his couch during the pandemic, wondering if he'd ever get to sing in front of an audience again, he was invited to send an audition tape and landed the role just a few days later. Will has collaborated with D.J. and artist K-Rico to create The Factotum, a contemporary  adaptation of Rossini's The Barber of Seville for the Lyric Opera of Chicago. He is an alumnus of the Ryan Opera Center at the Lyric Opera of Chicago. Dr. E. Patrick Johnson is an artist, writer, and professor of Performance Studies and African American Studies at Northwestern, where he is also the Dean of the School of Communication. He is the author and editor of several award-winning books, including Sweet Tea: Black Gay Men of the South. His research for the book included dozens of interviews with men who were born, raised, and still live in the South, and he later adapted it into a staged-reading, Pouring Tea, as well as a full-length play and a documentary. He has received multiple awards both for his scholarship and his stage work.

Once upon a time, there was a nice Jewish boy from Long Island on a visit to England, named Little Red Riding Puffer Coat. He didn't stick to the road, or stay off the Moors, and the Big Bad Wolf turned him into a relative. He never drank Dr. Pepper again. The End.
