Welcome back to the sixth instalment of our true crime movies season, this week Sarah forces Dan to endure Ridley Scott's divisive 2021 biopic, House of Gucci, a film that Sarah has deemed “both true and a crime in many senses of the word”. At two hours and 37 minutes, this is a girthy film that needed to be dramatically shorter, but somehow still rushes through key character developments. We unpack the strange tonal choice that borders on parody, debating whether the master filmmaker intended to lean into a theatrical comedia dell'arte style or simply didn't know what perspective he was trying to achieve. We delve into the central performances: Lady Gaga's committed portrayal of Patrizia Reggiani, which humanized the character even as she spirals; Adam Driver's subtle work as Maurizio Gucci; and the bizarre prosthetics and "Super Mario Brother" accent delivered by Jared Leto, which we agree feels less like acting and more like a hate crime. Plus, we celebrate Al Pacino's relatively subtle performance and the unexpected appearance of Jeremy Irons and Salma Hayek as the psychic. Here's what to expect in this episode: We attempt to justify the film's baffling 2 hour and 37 minute run time. A serious discussion about the merits of Ridley Scott as a filmmaker. We unpack Lady Gaga's commitment to staying in her Italian accent for nine months. Dan explores the subtle visual bookend using Maurizio on a bicycle at the start and end of the movie. We question why Jared Leto's Paolo Gucci felt like he was starring in a completely different film. The confusion over the film's muted and washed-out colour grading. Our critique on the abrupt character reversals. Would you like to see the full lineup for season 13? The only place you can see it is on Patreon but you don't need to be a paying member.

Min 2: ANACONDA (3 estrellas) Anaconda, dirigida por Tom Gormican (El talento de Mr. C), es una comedia metacinematográfica que toma el título del clásico de terror noventero como excusa para construir una sátira deslenguada sobre Hollywood, la nostalgia y la absurda maquinaria del remake. Protagonizada por Paul Rudd y Jack Black, la película sigue a dos profesionales en horas bajas que aceptan participar en una delirante reimaginación de Anaconda, convencidos de que puede ser su última oportunidad para volver a estar en el mapa. Min 10: BOB ESPONJA: AVENTURA PIRATA (3 estrellas) Bob Esponja: Aventura Pirata, dirigida por Derek Drymon (veterano creativo del universo Bob Esponja desde sus orígenes televisivos), devuelve al personaje al largometraje con una aventura de gran escala que recupera el espíritu gamberro y surrealista que lo convirtió en icono generacional. Con las voces originales encabezadas por Tom Kenny, junto a Bill Fagerbakke, Rodger Bumpass y Clancy Brown, la película sitúa a Bob y sus inseparables amigos en una travesía marítima marcada por mapas imposibles, piratas extravagantes y una amenaza que pone en jaque el equilibrio de Fondo de Bikini. Min 15: FATHER MOTHER SISTER BROTHER (4 estrellas) 'Father Mother Sister Brother', escrita y dirigida por Jim Jarmusch (Paterson, Only Lovers Left Alive), es una obra episódica, minimalista y profundamente humana que articula tres historias independientes unidas por los vínculos familiares, la soledad y el paso del tiempo. Protagonizada por un reparto coral que incluye a Cate Blanchett, Adam Driver, Tom Waits, Mayim Bialik y Charlotte Rampling, la película se despliega en distintos lugares y tonos, manteniendo siempre el pulso contemplativo y el humor seco característico del cineasta. Jarmusch observa a sus personajes con distancia afectuosa, dejando que los silencios, los gestos mínimos y las conversaciones aparentemente intrascendentes revelen heridas emocionales y tensiones soterradas entre padres, madres, hermanos y hermanas que apenas saben comunicarse. Min 21: HOMO ARGENTUM (3 estrellas) Homo Argentum, dirigida por Mariano Cohn y Gastón Duprat (El ciudadano ilustre, Competencia oficial), es una sátira feroz y elegante que radiografía, a través del humor incómodo, las contradicciones morales y sociales de la Argentina contemporánea. Protagonizada por un camaleónico Guillermo Francella, la película se articula en episodios autónomos que retratan a distintos personajes unidos por una misma pulsión: el individualismo extremo, la picaresca elevada a norma y la supervivencia como único código ético. Cohn y Duprat utilizan el formato fragmentado para multiplicar puntos de vista y situaciones, construyendo un espejo deformante en el que la risa nace del reconocimiento y la incomodidad. Min 28: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON ROBERTO LANCHA A las puertas del nuevo año, casi sobre la campana, llega el turno de conocer la confesión cinéfila del director de Estamos de Cine. El periodista de Radio Castilla-La Mancha y crítico especializado, Roberto Lancha, desvela en pleno Filtro Liuchini por qué "El Padrino 1 y 2", entendidas como un todo, es el título que marcó su adoelscencia y, por extensión, su amor por el cine y por la comunicación vinculada al Séptimo Arte. Min 38: BSO ESPECIAL BSO EL PADRINO Y dado que la elección del director de Estamos de Cine enlaza con una de las bandas sonoras más celebradas de la historia del cine, la cita con Ángel Luque en la finca familiar de Los Corleone -en un entorno privilegiado de Long Island- se convierte en todo un homenaje musical a una de las mejores películas de todos los tiempos.

This week we're excited to present a conversation from the 63rd New York Film Festival with Father Mother Sister Brother director Jim Jarmusch and cast members Adam Driver, Indya Moore, Luka Sabbat, Vicky Krieps, and Tom Waits. This conversation was moderated by NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. The NYFF63 Centerpiece selection, Father Mother Sister Brother will open at Film at Lincoln Center on December 24. Get tickets at filmlinc.org/jarmusch For years, Jim Jarmusch has written, directed, and produced delicate, character-driven films. Winner of the Venice Film Festival Golden Lion, Father Mother Sister Brother is a perceptive study in familial dynamics, a feature film carefully constructed in the form of a triptych. The three chapters all concern the relationships between adult children reconnecting or coming to terms with aging or lost parents, which take place in the present, and each in a different country. Siblings Jeff and Emily (played by Adam Driver and Mayim Bialik) check up on their hermetic father (played by Tom Waits) in rural New Jersey; sisters Lilith and Timothea (Vicky Krieps and Cate Blanchett) reunite with their guarded novelist mother (Charlotte Rampling) in Dublin; and twins Skye and Billy (Indya Moore and Luka Sabbat) return to their Paris apartment to address a family tragedy. Father Mother Sister Brother is a kind of anti-action film, its subtle and quiet style carefully constructed to allow small details to accumulate—almost like flowers being carefully placed in three delicate arrangements. The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.

It's the dead of winter, so what better time to watch the frostiest of music movies - in every sense? Set in a bitterly cold early '60s New York, the Coen brothers' Inside Llewyn Davis sees Oscar Isaac's titular folk singer getting the cold shoulder wherever he goes, whether it's from his volcanically angry ex, played by Carey Mulligan, or the strange hand of fate itself.This week, Joe from Dreaming Machine rejoins the show to decide whether this is one of the Coens' sad funny movies or one of their funny sad movies, as well as dissecting the film's real-life inspirations, the response it got from veterans of the real-life 1960s NY folk scene, and its supporting turns from Justin Timberlake and Adam Driver.

The fandom said yes, but Disney said no. However, Disney also said that Ben Solo is very dead....but we know how that goes in Star Wars. "Is anyone ever really gone?" (IE: Is any character ever really dead?) A majority of the fandom has been very loud and very clear on their desire to see Adam Driver and Steven Soderbergh's movie plans to bring back Ben Solo in a movie that takes place after "The Rise of Skywalker". We weigh in on our opinion of the movie, which - according to Driver - has been officially cancelled by Disney. But does that mean the movie plans are actually dead? Or is it like Palpatine, and it could somehow magically return?

The Last Frontier Top User Rated Original Movies per Streamer Last week we ran down the top streamer's price histories and at one point I (Ara), said that Amazon really didn't have many movies worth watching but since it came included with Prime shipping who cares. So this week I wanted to see what Amazon Original Movies were available and how they rated on IMDB. This did not include TV series like Reacher, Terminalist, etc. I just wanted to see if there was something I was missing. Then I expanded it to all the streamers we talked about last week and thus we created a list of the highest rated original movies from each streamer as rated by viewers on IMDB. Note the list goes from lowest to highest. Paramount+ Hunger Ward (2020) with a rating of 7.1/10. This short documentary, directed by Skye Fitzgerald, explores the Yemeni Civil War's famine through the work of two female health workers at therapeutic feeding centers for malnourished children. It premiered on Paramount+ in 2021 and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Short Subject. Hulu Good Luck to You, Leo Grande (2022) with a rating of 7.2/10 based on over 34,000 user votes. Directed by Sophie Hyde and starring Emma Thompson as a widowed retiree exploring her sexuality with a young sex worker (Daryl McCormack), it's a witty and intimate comedy-drama praised for its honest take on aging, desire, and vulnerability. Peacock Psych 3: This Is Gus (2021) with a rating of 7.5/10 based on over 5,500 user votes. This comedy-mystery TV movie, directed by Steve Franks, serves as the third installment in the Psych film series and follows fake psychic detective Shawn Spencer (James Roday Rodriguez) and his best friend Burton "Gus" Guster (Dulé Hill) as they investigate Gus's bride-to-be's past amid wedding chaos, all while Lassiter (Timothy Omundson) faces career uncertainty. It's praised for its sharp humor, heartfelt moments, and nostalgic callbacks to the original USA Network series. Netflix Marriage Story (2019) with a rating of 7.9/10 (from over 380,000 votes). Directed by Noah Baumbach, this poignant drama follows a stage director (Adam Driver) and his actress wife (Scarlett Johansson) as they navigate a grueling divorce, exploring the emotional toll on their family and creative lives. It received critical acclaim for its sharp screenplay, authentic performances, and raw depiction of marital breakdown, earning six Oscar nominations including Best Picture. Apple TV+ Wolfwalkers (2020) with a rating of 8.0/10 based on over 43,000 user ratings. This animated fantasy adventure, directed by Tomm Moore and Ross Stewart, follows a young hunter's daughter who befriends a girl from a wolf-shifting tribe in 17th-century Ireland. It stands out for its hand-drawn animation, themes of friendship and freedom, and cultural folklore elements, earning an Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature. Amazon Prime The Handmaiden (2016) with a rating of 8.1/10 from nearly 195,000 votes. Directed by Park Chan-wook and adapted from Sarah Waters' novel Fingersmith, this erotic psychological thriller is set in 1930s Japanese-occupied Korea. It follows a con artist, a pickpocket disguised as a handmaiden, and a wealthy heiress in a tale of seduction, betrayal, and revenge told across three perspectives. Amazon Studios acquired U.S. distribution rights after its 2016 Cannes premiere, making it an exclusive Prime Video original. Its high rating comes from praise for its intricate plot, stunning visuals, and strong performances by Kim Min-hee, Kim Tae-ri, and Ha Jung-woo. For comparison, other top Amazon originals include Manchester by the Sea (7.8/10), Sound of Metal (7.7/10), and The Big Sick (7.5/10).

THE HUNT FOR BEN SOLO... The title might not be great, but the potential of this cancelled film is certainly thrilling. Recently, news broke that Adam Driver and Steven Soderbergh had been working on a script for a post-Episode IX Ben Solo film. Not only that but it seemed that the folks at Lucasfilm liked the concept, and a full script was completed with the intention of moving forward with the film, only for Disney CEO Bob Iger to kill the film since he couldn't understand how Ben Solo would be alive. Today we discuss this news and wonder about the possibilities continuing Ben's story has, especially after a disappointing end for his character in The Rise Of Skywalker, and potential connections to Daisy Ridley's upcoming New Jedi Order film.

In an interview this week, Oscar-nominated actor Adam Driver revealed that he, along with Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh developed a script for a new Star Wars movie called “The Hunt For Ben Solo”, which was ultimately rejected by Disney's top brass. So what gives? We look at every angle of this story to break it all down, along with listener  reactions and fired-up opinions. We pay tribute to legendary artist Drew Struzan with Erik Sharkey, director of the documentary “Drew: The Man Behind The Poster” and discuss some of his iconic Star Wars movie posters. Will we see the original 1977 version of Star Wars back in theaters for its upcoming 50th anniversary? We analyze some leaked info and imagery that may suggest the answer is yes. Plus, George Lucas and Mellody Hobson recently were interviewed about the soon-to-open Lucas Museum in LA. We review the highlights along with some comments from George about life after Star Wars.

This week's Empire Podcast sees Chris Hewitt struggle with the enunciation of one word in particular (you'll have to listen to find out which). Incredibly, it's not 'Howl-o-ween', which is just one of the many things discussed by Chris and his three colleagues of such lethal cunning, Helen O'Hara, James Dyer, and Ben Travis. They get their teeth into movies in which a main character is ill, talk about the shock revelation that Adam Driver and Steven Soderbergh had developed a literal Solo movie for Kylo Ren, and review Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, Nia DaCosta's Hedda, and Kelly Reichardt's The Mastermind. Guest-wise, we have a veritable bounty as Helen has a lovely chat with Nia DaCosta, and Chris talks to Jeremy Strong, star of the Springsteen flick; and has a joyous natter about the end of the world with Rebecca Ferguson and Kathryn Bigelow, star and director respectively of A House Of Dynamite, which is now out on Netflix. No timecodes yet, as the guy who writes this blurb has to leg it to a screening. But they're roughly 23 minutes, one hour and three minutes in, and one hour and 38 minutes in. Enjoy!

Mia Goth is the latest actor shedding a bit of light on the long-shelved Blade movie from Marvel Studios. In an interview with Elle, promoting her upcoming appearance in Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Goth shared only that she is still attached to the film and commented that “It's for the best that it's taken the time it has. They want to do it right.” This is in line with Kevin Feige's comments this summer that the film is still moving forward.In an interview with the AP this week, Adam Driver dropped some major information about the Ben Solo movie in Star Wars that never was. Driver explained that Lucasfilm was interested in continuing his character's story in a film that had a script written by Steven Soderbergh. Driver was supportive of the script and the creative team took it to Bob Iger and Alan Bergman at Disney who turned the project down as they “didn't see how Ben Solo was alive.” Fan favorites Amber Midthunder and Walton Goggins will star in a new action movie from the creator of the John Wick franchise. The film, called Painter, has a major executive producer credit - with Avatar and Titanic director James Cameron serving in that role. Stunt coordinator Garrett Warren, who worked with Cameron on the last two Avatars as well as Logan and the Road House reboot, is directing the movie; a debut effort. The movie's plot will focus on Midthunder's character, trained as a child who must save her father after he is kidnapped.Lightning RoundKate McKinnon has joined the cast of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” Season 3 and will play Aphrodite.Jim Carrey is in talks to star in a live action film adaptation of The Jetsons from Warner Bros.
