Not lines, but what's unsaid—the subtext, the human thought behind the eyes.” Resources: James Mangold on IMDb Microbudget Workshop with GG Hawkins Find No Film School everywhere: On the Web: No Film School Facebook: No Film School on Facebook Twitter: No Film School on Twitter YouTube: No Film School on YouTube Instagram: No Film School on Instagram Send us an email with questions or feedback: podcast@nofilmschool.com Learn more about your ad choices.

fWotD Episode 2599: Whisky Galore! (1949 film) Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of the featured Wikipedia article every day.The featured article for Sunday, 16 June 2024 is Whisky Galore! (1949 film).Whisky Galore! is a 1949 British comedy film produced by Ealing Studios, starring Basil Radford, Bruce Seton, Joan Greenwood and Gordon Jackson. It was the directorial debut of Alexander Mackendrick; the screenplay was by Compton Mackenzie, an adaptation of his 1947 novel Whisky Galore, and Angus MacPhail. The story—based on a true event, the running aground of the SS Politician—concerns a shipwreck off a fictional Scottish island, the inhabitants of which have run out of whisky because of wartime rationing. The islanders find out the ship is carrying 50,000 cases of whisky, some of which they salvage, against the opposition of the local Customs and Excise men.It was filmed on the island of Barra; the weather was so poor that the production over-ran its 10-week schedule by five weeks, and the film went £20,000 over budget. Michael Balcon, the head of the studio, was unimpressed by the initial cut of the film, and one of Ealing's directors, Charles Crichton, added footage and re-edited the film before its release. Like other Ealing comedies, Whisky Galore! explores the actions of a small insular group facing and overcoming a more powerful opponent. An unspoken sense of community runs through the film, and the story reflects a time when the British Empire was weakening.Whisky Galore! was well received on release. It came out in the same year as Passport to Pimlico and Kind Hearts and Coronets, leading to 1949 being remembered as one of the peak years of the Ealing comedies. In the US, where Whisky Galore! was renamed Tight Little Island, the film became the first from the studios to achieve box office success. It was followed by a sequel, Rockets Galore!. Whisky Galore! has since been adapted for the stage, and a remake was released in 2016.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:03 UTC on Sunday, 16 June 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Whisky Galore!

Everyone loves gut-busting belly-laughs in a film. But sometimes, big laughs slow things down. There's something to be said for films that amuse us for their duration. Join us for a conversation about a film that makes us smile from its first moment to its last: The Ladykillers, Alexander Mackendrick's 1955 dark comedy starring Alec Guinness as the creepiest criminal and a young Peter Sellars as one of his gang. Dan praises the film's economy and compares it to John Cheever's “Reunion”; Mike explains how it reminds him of Gilbert & Sullivan. And while they dissect the film and how it manipulates the viewer, they still cannot answer the question, “Are those really Alec Guinness's teeth?” If you'd like to read “Reunion,” the terrific story by John Cheever to which they compare The Ladykillers, you'll find it in this collection—which, incidentally, is a book everyone should have.

Scottish Island Adventures - Barra, Vatersay and Eriskay with host Coinneach Macleod, the Hebridean Baker and guest Tony Kearney Barra, Vatersay, & Eriskay As you approach Castlebay with the wonderful Kisimul Castle keeping watch, you'll soon realise that a trip to these islands is a trip into the very heart of Scotland's natural beauty. Long stretches of coastline evoke a rich sense of solitude making a visit to one (or all three) of the islands an ideal way to escape the commotion of city-living. Packed with vibrant history, outdoor activities, and delicious things to eat and drink, Barra, Vatersay, & Eriskay have it all going on despite their modest size.   Vatersay - The Hebridean Way The Hebridean Way officially opened in 2017 and spans 10 islands, 6 causeways, and 2 ferries. It is a magnificent walking and cycling route which takes you all the way from Vatersay, the southernmost inhabited island of the Hebrides all the way up to the Butt of Lewis. Those who undertake it traverse over Atlantic coastlines, rugged hills, and sweeping sandy beaches with plenty of ‘Pit Stops' (official businesses partnered with the Hebridean Way) to help you rest and recover along the way.  Barra Bike Hire  Like many island enterprises, Barra Bike Hire is a small, family run business. It was originally set up in 2013 / 2014 when the family invested in half a dozen hire bikes to provide for guests staying in their self-catering apartment and self-catering holiday let 'across the road'. In those days the availability of hire bikes on the island was patchy at best. Since then they have invested significantly in a fleet of bicycles and they now have a varied and diverse range of bikes to cater for most needs.  Barra - Honesty Boxes  Visit any small community and you will undoubtedly notice an honesty box, or five. Usually filled with fresh goods such as fruits & vegetables, cakes, and eggs, honesty boxes rely on the goodwill of passers by and are a lovely way to experience a taste of the local produce even when the community shops are shut. Barra has a whole host of honesty boxes - some even have a dedicated Facebook page - and are well worth a visit if you're peckish on the island.   Eriskay - Am Politician bar/ Whiskey Galore Am Politician was built over 30 years ago taking its name from the S.S Politician vessel which came onto the rocks of Eriskay in 1941. The story of the S.S Politician - which had over 200,000 bottles of whiskey on-board - inspired countless retellings but was truly immortalised by Alexander MacKendrick's Whiskey Galore!.

One of the most beloved Ealing comedies of all time takes on one of the most beloved filmmaking duos of our time. Alexander Mackendrick's The Ladykillers has long endured, thanks to its brilliant concept, dark humour and excellent cast.

The year is 1955 and the movies are gentle. Brad Garoon assigns Jake Ziegler the Ladykillers, a movie ranked very high on the BFI Top 100 Films of All Time list, and lauded as one of Alec Guinness's most entertaining performances. They compare Alexander Mackendrick's version to that of the Coen Brothers 50 years later, and talk about Tom Hanks's odd accent decisions over the years. Jake then assigns Brad the Delbert Mann-directed and Paddy Chayefsky-written Marty, mostly because both hosts like Quiz Show and Marty was a huge part of that film. They talk bubble romance movies, where the world stops so two people have a little time to fall in love, and then they fall over themselves to praise the performances by Ernest Borgnine and Betsy Blair. Other movies discussed in this episode: Harvey (1950), Lady and the Tramp (1955), Rififi (1955), To Catch a Thief (1955), Moonstruck (1987), Quiz Show (1994), Before Sunrise (1995), The Ladykillers (2004), The Terminal (2004), Nick & Nora's Infinite Playlist (2008), Burn After Reading (2008), Elvis (2022), Rye Lane (2023).

Book Vs. Movie: Sweet Smell of Success Ernest Lehman was an accomplished writer and adapter of material for the screen, known for his work on movies such as Hello Dolly!, The King and I, and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? In 1950, he wrote an original short story, "Tell Me About It Tomorrow,” published in Cosmopolitan magazine. This story became the basis of Clifford Odet's screenplay for the 1957 classic film Sweet Smell of Success, starring Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis and directed by Alexander Mackendrick. The film is a gripping portrayal of media manipulation, gossip, backstabbing, and strange family relationships set in the world of New York City newspapers and the desire for fame.

Leur métier : enseigner l'écriture de scénario, et la profession de scénariste. Dans ce 24e numéro de l'émission, au tour des formateur·rice·s de discuter de leur rapport au scénario et aux scénaristes. Nous recevons : -

Every so often the Criterion Collection shows us exactly one movie from a director and will apparently never show us another. With very few exceptions we've loved these one-and-dones, and Alexander Mackendrick's Sweet Smell of Succcess is no outlier. It's very dark, it's very entertaining, and we'll never see anything from Mackendrick again.

Alexander Mackendrick summed up the wisdom that film schools (and MFA programs in general) hand down to writers. Is it helpful or poisonous? In this episode, Matt and James finish examining and questioning his 41 rules.

Matt and James once again use the rules of Alexander Mackendrick as a springboard to talk about what makes for a good story. Bonus: Matt posits his theory of what's in the case in Pulp Fiction and completely convinces James!

The great filmmaker Alexander Mackendrick famously passed along 41 rules of writing advice and now Matt and James are going to evaluate them all in a three-part epic!

The Stinking Pause Podcast - bringing you classic movies since 2013...some good, some not so good.   2023 marks the 10th anniversary of the Stinking Pause podcast. To celebrate, this year we are looking back at some of the movies already reviewed over the past 10 years and inviting fellow podcasters and friends to join us. This week, Cev from Film Guff, House of Hammer, and Here Lies Amicus, joins us to chat about one of his favourite movies of all time.   Sweet Smell Of Success (1957) In the swift, cynical Sweet Smell of Success, directed by Alexander Mackendrick, Burt Lancaster stars as the vicious Broadway gossip columnist J. J. Hunsecker, and Tony Curtis as Sidney Falco, the unprincipled press agent Hunsecker ropes into smearing the up-and-coming jazz musician romancing his beloved sister. Featuring deliciously unsavory dialogue, in an acid, brilliantly structured script by Clifford Odets and Ernest Lehman, and noirish neon cityscapes from Oscar-winning cinematographer James Wong Howe, Sweet Smell of Success is a cracklingly cruel dispatch from the kill-or-be-killed wilds of 1950s Manhattan.   " The cat's in the bag and the bag's in the river."   This and previous episodes can be found everywhere you download your podcasts Follow us on Twitter @StinkingPause email: thestinkingpause@gmail.com   Thanks for listening!

Bienvenidos a un nuevo episodio de la Gran Evasión, esta noche tenemos una desternillante muestra de como la codicia y la ambición no conocen limites; Y es que El Mundo Está Loco, Loco, Loco. Una comedia a reivindicar, un magnifico homenaje al slapstick. Un puñado de locos al servicio de Kramer. Stanley Kramer es otro director, algo olvidado, pero que es parte fundamental del Hollywood de los 60, se suele citar por su bagaje en películas de corte social y psicológico: El alegato antinuclear en La Hora Final (1959) o Adivina Quién Viene Esta Noche (1967), tratando el tema racial, El Barco de los Locos que ahondaba en la relaciones humanas en plena huida del nazismo. Pero en 1963, se desmarca de todo y de todos con esta carrera a contra corriente, nunca mejor dicho. Kramer lo apuesta todo con esta comedia coral, totalmente loca, de casi tres horas, que se proyectaba con un descanso, en un formato espectacular, Ultra Panavisión, propio de los peplums de la época, arrancando con unos títulos de crédito brillantes, a cargo del genio Saúl Bass. El mundo está loco loco es una rareza, y una película tan alocada como divertida. El punto de partida es tan hilarante como simple, un accidente, un puñado de curiosos, un moribundo que susurra el lugar de un botín escondido, y el resto lo pone la condición humana, enfocando en primer plano el alma americana: la oportunidad, la pasta, el dólar, la codicia….llegar y ser el primero. Los guionistas, William y Tania Rose, ya habían dado muestra de su talento con El Quinteto de la Muerte (1955) de Alexander Mackendrick, que en cierto modo pone las bases de esta historia, porque es otro reparto coral de grandes cómicos, En el mundo esta loco loco el reparto está compuesto por cómicos de diferentes épocas y estilos que cada uno tiene su momento de gloria, todo llevado al extremo, bajo un ritmo frenético. A pesar de sus 154 minutos de metraje, y su descanso, El mundo está loco loco loco es una delicia que se disfruta en un suspiro, sin dejar de reír, también con un guiño melancólico por el cine clásico, por la esencia de este arte tan maravilloso: la risa, la emoción, no hay nada mas intimo, ni mas conciliador y no hay conexión mas sagrada que compartir una carcajada…. Esta noche corremos a lo loco por las carreteras californianas, directos a la gran W del parque de Santa Rosita, con una elenco grandioso, con personajes inolvidables, Spencer Tracy como el honrado capitán Culpepper, la insoportable suegra de Russel, la señora Marcus, interpretada magistralmente por Ethel Merman, Lennie el camionero bonachón hasta que se enfurece como el increíble Hulk, genial Johnathan Winter…….el dentista, el oportunista e indeseable Otto que engaña a todo el que se le cruza en el camino, Phil Silvers….Micky Rooney y Buddy Hacket y un largo etcétera…, sin contar los cameos de viejas leyendas del cine y la televisión….como los Tres Chiflados…o el maestro Buster Keaton. Emprendemos una persecución descontrolada por las carreteras del cine: Rosario Medina, Salvador Limón, Gervi Navío y Zacarias Cotán…para constatar una verdad innegable: El Mundo está loco loco loco Gervasio Navío Flores.

"O que isso significa, integridade?". A frase do personagem JJ Hunsecker, um poderoso e inescrupuloso colunista de jornal vivido por Burt Lancaster em "A Embriaguez do Sucesso", talvez seja a que melhor descreva o espírito deste filme dirigido por Alexander Mackendrick em 1957 e que debatemos neste episódio do Quarentena Cult - Clássicos. Mas não só ela. O filme, mais conhecido pela atuação em dupla de Lancaster e de Tony Curtis no papel de um publicista que faz qualquer coisa para colocar seus clientes na coluna de Hunsecker, é um deleite também pela sagacidade dos diálogos e por ser um exemplar do melhor cinema noir americano. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tenha acesso a conteúdos exclusivos!

Qu'est-ce qu'une innovation ? Est-il souhaitable de toujours vouloir innover ? Et comment peut-on innover de manière responsable ? Pascal Faure, directeur général de l'Institut National de la Propriété Industrielle (INPI), et Cédric Paternotte, maître de conférences en philosophie des sciences à Sorbonne Université, tâchent de répondre à ces questions dans le premier épisode de Cogitons Sciences. C'est le premier épisode de la mini-série sur l'éthique et les sciences qui s'étend sur trois épisodes. Qu'est-ce qu'une innovation ? [1:20] – [15:09] Selon les critères de l'INPI, une innovation doit être nouvelle, inventive et industrialisable. Ainsi l'innovation ne se réduit pas à la technologie mais existe dans de multiples domaines. On peut la diviser en deux catégories : les innovations de rupture et les innovations incrémentales [1:20]. En philosophie, il n'existe pas de consensus pour définir une innovation mais un des traits qui la caractérise est sa distinction avec l'invention [5:50]. Selon Pascal Faure, alors que progrès et innovation avaient toujours été liés, la mécanique s'est enrayée à la fin du XXe siècle lorsqu'on a constaté que les innovations pouvaient avoir des conséquences négatives (pollution, perte d'emploi, maladies etc.). S'est alors créé dans l'inconscient collectif une distanciation entre innovations et progrès. Lier à nouveau ces deux notions est selon lui un enjeu de notre siècle [9:58]. La régulation de l'innovation [15:20] - [30:29] L'INPI n'est pas en charge de juger et d'évaluer les effets des technologies. En revanche, l'institut œuvre pour diffuser l'innovation et respecter un équilibre entre intérêt particulier de l'innovateur et intérêt collectif [15:10]. De son côté, la puissance publique a le rôle de protéger le consommateur et vérifier s'il n'y a pas de risques pour la société. Pascal Faure cite l'ASN, ANSM et la DGCCRF dont c'est la mission. Mais est-ce à l'Etat de contrôler l'innovation et l'éthique ? Selon Cédric Paternotte, la question est complexe car les innovations se succèdent vite et leurs conséquences sont difficilement prévisibles [18:18]. Une autre question se pose : doit-on laisser libre cours à l'innovation ou l'orienter vers des besoins ? Dans tous les cas, nos deux invités mettent l'accent sur l'importance de continuer à rechercher dans des domaines dont on ne voit pas l'utilité actuellement mais qui pourraient servir dans le futur. Enfin, Pascal Faure rappelle que la vraie responsabilité publique est de définir si on doit ou ne doit pas utiliser une innovation, par exemple les modifications génomiques [20:16]. Et si on s'arrêtait d'innover ? [30:30] – [35:10] Pour Pascal Faure, l'innovation est un phénomène inhérent à la vie. Il ne faut pas le stopper, d'autant plus que l'humanité est confrontée à des défis nouveaux. En revanche, il est important d'innover de manière responsable et ainsi réconcilier innovation et progrès [30:30]. Selon Cédric, on ne peut tout simplement pas s'arrêter d'innover. Et même si l'intérêt général voudrait qu'on stoppe l'innovation, les Etats n'ont aucun intérêt à le faire. C'est pour cela que certains philosophes défendent l'idée que l'évolution de la technique est incontrôlable [33:26].

In this episode of Welcome To The Party Pal, film historian and host Christian Niedan, with the help of editor and culture journalist Dante A. Ciampaglia, celebrate the 1957 cult classic Sweet Smell of Success. Sweet Smell of Success is a noir drama film directed by Alexander Mackendrick, starring Burt Lancaster, Tony Curtis, Susan Harrison, and Martin Milner, and written by Clifford Odets, Ernest Lehman, and Mackendrick from the novelette by Lehman. The darkened noir cinematography filmed on location in New York City was shot by James Wong Howe. The film tells the story of powerful and sleazy newspaper columnist J.J. Hunsecker (portrayed by Lancaster and based on Walter Winchell) who uses his connections to ruin his sister's relationship with a man he deems unworthy of her. The musical score was arranged and conducted by Elmer Bernstein and the film also features jazz performances by the Chico Hamilton Quintet.Read work from Dante A. Ciampaglia, who has been published by The Paris Review, Metropolis, Architectural Digest, and Wired, at danteaciampaglia.com. Of note, read his article entitled "Black (and Blue) and White and Rad All Over" about Sweet Smell of Success at Pop Matters. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This #Noirvember, we're serving a cookie full of arsenic, as The Unenthusiastic Critic enjoys her first viewing of Alexander Mackendrick's cynical cinematic masterpiece.

When it comes to a name in British comedy, Ealing Studios is a name that has persisted throughout the years. Alec Guinness had made his name for these comedies and in 1951 he was teaming up with Alexander Mackendrick to make a strange science fiction comedy about an unassuming scientist who makes a fabric that is both indestructible and doesn't stain, and the fall out which occurs when both the textile mill owners and the trade unions realise this will put them out of work. The Man in the White Suit, is not one of the better known Ealing Comedies but it is certainly one of the most cynically unique of them. All this and more on Adjust Your Tracking!

Dan and Mike tackle Alexander Mackendrick's 1957 Sweet Smell of Success. Mike gives his reasons why the film should not work on paper--but does beautifully--and Dan recalls previous episodes about character-driven suspense and how the film makes the seduction of a cigarette girl more suspenseful than any secret agent disarming a bomb. How the film nails the culture of celebrity and how "we get the celebrities we deserve" are in here, too.

In this episode of Weird Studies, an improvised analysis of two pop songs -- Nina Simone's version of James Shelton's "Lilac Wine" and Ghostface Killah's visionary "Underwater" -- becomes the occasion for a deep dive to the weird wellspring of artistic creation. In trying to understand these songs and why they love them so much, your hosts touch on themes such as necromancy, decadence, liebestod, visionary experience, the Muslim image of paradise, the necessity of rifts, Norman Mailer's concept of "dream life," and the magical operation that is sampling.

This week, we begin our heist movies mini-season with the 1955 French film noir RIFIFI. After our usual reviews, we get into what this film is really about — including a bit of a history lesson from Rob — as well as discussing how this film is less ‘shiny' than many of the films it spawned, and is all the better for it. Next Time The next heist movie on our list is the original OCEAN'S ELEVEN (1960). Recent Media PARASITE (2020): Bong Joon-ho, Song Kang-ho, Lee Sun-Kyun THE SPANISH MAIN (1945): Frank Borzage, Maureen O'Hara, Paul Henreid Recommendations THE LADYKILLERS (1955): Alexander Mackendrick, Alec Guinness, Cecil Parker BRIGHTON ROCK (1947): John Boulting, Richard Attenborough, Hermione Baddeley LA DOLCE VITA (1960): Federico Fellini, Marcello Masttoianni, Anita Ekburg THE CONVERSATION (1974): Francis Ford Coppola, Gene Hackman, John Cazale Footnotes Firstly, here's more on THE SPANISH MAIN (Sam wasn't testing Rob; he was genuinely interested!): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spanish_Main.

The seedy, hand-to-mouth, day-to-day scramble in the life of a press agent in New York City seems an unlikely setup for a cruel and bitter piece of star-studded film noir.  But Tony Curtis and Burt Lancaster are up to the challenge in director Alexander Mackendrick’s take on the hustle and corruption here at the very heart of conservative America’s most nostalgic tent pole. If you’d like to watch ahead for next week’s film, we will be reviewing and discussing Rob Reiner’s This is Spinal Tap (1984).

Randy has been selecting a lot of spooky films for use recently, and the trend continues with Masaki Kobayashi’s 1965 horror anthology Kwaidan.  We’re treated to four eerie tales adapted from the collection of Japanese folklore of the same name.  Each more gorgeously photographed than the next.  Ghostly imperial courts, ice vampires, dead lovers, and mischievous teacup spirits round out the cast of nightmarish characters.  If you’d like to watch ahead for next week’s film, we will be discussing and reviewing Alexander Mackendrick’s The Sweet Smell of Success (1957).

Garrett and Dan suit up in their karate gis for a lengthy chat with Michael Pressman about his work directing TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES II: THE SECRET OF THE OOZE. Michael introduces the boys to his mentor, Alexander Mackendrick, describes the laborious prep that goes into capturing a Turtle on camera, and of course takes the time to chat about Vanilla Ice. twitter | Facebook | tumblr | iTunes

Andrew and Dave may not be able to travel outside of their respective homes right now, but that doesn't mean they can't visit London, England via the power of cinema! This time out, the podcasting duo take a look at Alexander Mackendrick's 1955 comedy THE LADYKILLERS, starring Katie Johnson and Alec Guiness. Will Andrew and Dave enjoy the film, or find it a bit dry for their tastes? Which future star of A SHOT IN THE DARK reigns supreme here: Peter Sellers, or Herbert Lom? And what connection did Dave's not-exactly-a-film-fanatic father notice right off the bat about THE LADYKILLERS? Tune in and find out! Next Episode: Ted. Freaking. Wass. All music by Andrew Kannegeisser. Editing by Dave Babbitt. Stay safe, everyone!

When good planning goes bad! When originally selecting Alexander Mackendrick's 1957 noir drama SWEET SMELL OF SUCCESS for the podcast, hosts Andrew and Dave were not anticipating watching it under a global health crisis. Does watching the film in light of COVID-19 temper their love for an otherwise pitch black drama? Just how is Andrew's Tony Curtis impression? And how often will Dave say "Sydney" when he means "J.J."? Tune in and find out! Next Episode: The driest of dry British comedy. All music by Andrew Kannegeisser. Editing by Dave Babbitt. RIP to The Gambler.

Perhaps the world's first famous Scots filmmaker, Alexander Mackendrick was not much more than a set designer when he was hired by Britain's Ealing Studios to direct Whisky Galore! (1949).  If you were to ask Mackendrick himself, he would like not cite it as the high point of his career, as the production was plagued with problems between him and the producers. Based on actual events, Whisky Galore! is the charming little story of an island village in Scotland whose inhabitants conspire to steal a boatload of whiskey from a sunken ship.  Traditional stereotypes may stand out, but at the end of the day most audiences won't help but smile to themselves at Alexander Mackenrick's directorial debut.

Joe Swanberg's Lens Cap After a snap election, Cinema Eclectica agrees not to do any more strained political puns after the introduction. Aside from that there’s some exciting news about future shows tucked away inside Ryan’s preview of "My Entire High School Sinking Into the Sea", and a typically varied Off the Shelf. Graham takes us to a school for the deaf in Alexander Mackendrick’s "Mandy", Aidan takes us to a school for the death – yes! – in Ovidio G. Assonitis’ "Madhouse", and Rob reviews Asghar Farhadi's Oscar-winning "The Salesman", about which few jokes can be made. After that the team gather to watch Woody Harrelson plays a volleyball on an island, (we think), in our Film of the Week - "Wilson", (look, I don’t do the research, I just write the previews).

The Dudes do a little NYC fast talking in 1957's "Sweet Smell of Success", directed by Alexander Mackendrick, starring Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis. This stylish American film-noir is one of the best of the genre, highlighted by two powerhouse performances. If this is a bad movie, then we're pretzels!

“Match me, Sidney." James Wong Howe had just won his Oscar for his black-and-white cinematography for “The Rose Tattoo” when the star of the film, Burt Lancaster, hired him to shoot his next picture, “Sweet Smell of Success.” Howe and director Alexander Mackendrick knew right away that to tell this story properly, they really needed to film on the streets of New York City at night. So they did, and in the process created a stunningly gorgeous and dark film noir that feels like it truly lives in the city, not on some Hollywood soundstage. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our Black-and-White Cinematography of James Wong Howe series with Mackendrick's wonderful 1956 film, “Sweet Smell of Success.” We talk about the chiaroscuro look that Howe captured in this film, and also look at the deep focus and camera movement and how it all helps tell the story. We chat about Ernest Lehman and Clifford Odets, the writers, looking at what they each contributed to the wickedly brilliant dialogue. We discuss the cast — notably Lancaster, Tony Curtis, Susan Harrison, Marty Milner, Barbara Nichols and Emile Meyer — and what they bring to the table. We touch on Walter Winchell, the figure on whom Lancaster's character was based. And we talk about how the film was received at the time — poorly — as well as how opinion of it changed over time. It's a film that feels biting and dangerous, and it's one we enjoy quite a bit. Tune in!

And Spielberg. It should be obvious why I picked this one. But it's also about a piece of history I didn't know about, so I find myself quite intrigued." Pete's Trailer: The Martian — “DAMON IN SPAAAAACE! I'm right in the middle of the book that spawned this movie and the trailer so far is doing great justice to the tone and spirit of the material.

Alec Guinness's Professor Marcus really meets his match with Katie Johnson's Mrs. Wilberforce in Alexander Mackendrick's 1955 Ealing Studios comedy "The Ladykillers," what some call the last great comedy from the studio.

It's a great premise for this film, and one that makes at least half of us on the show laugh.

Ealing Studios comedies, particularly the ones we’ve been talking about, have all had a bit of an anti-establishment feel to them but “The Man in the White Suit” feels like they were trying to something a bit more with it. The film is fascinating satirical comedy looking at the relationship between the factory owners and the union laborers in England back in the 50s that doesn’t just focus on their differences but also finds a way to bring the two groups together. The reason for their coming together is, of course, the titular character, played wonderfully by Sir Alec Guinness. Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we talk about this great Alexander Mackendrick film from 1951 as the next in our Guinness series. We talk about why we find this film so fascinating, and how this film is really the foundation for our podcast. We chat about Guinness and the way he plays his character, as well as many of the other wonderful actors who do so well here, namely Joan Greenwood, Cecil Parker and Michael Gough. We discuss the wonderful cinematography by Douglas Slocombe, working with more shadows than we’ve seen before, as well as Mackendrick and what he brings to the table. And we chat about some of the effects, from the luminescent suit to the stunt of Guinness scaling the side of the house to escape. It’s a brilliant film, one which we both love, and one which more people should really see. So check it out then tune in! Hey! You know what would be awesome?

As part of BBC Radio 3's Sound of Cinema, a week of essays written and presented by historian and columnist Simon Heffer on classic British taboo-breaking films which depicted a society changed profoundly by war. The cinema of the 30s was nakedly and unashamedly escapist in a way that the cinema of the late 40s and early 50s - in an age of lost innocence and social upheaval - simply couldn't be. This was a period when British cinema was forced to embrace change and reflect reality.Taboos it had left untouched could no longer be ignored if film was to remain relevant. Families had broken up because of bereavement and adultery. Subjects considered unsuitable for a cinema audience - marital breakdown , criminality, revenge, failings in the justice system, and disability - suddenly became popular with British screenwriters and studios. Social realism was the order of the day.In Heffer on British Film, Simon Heffer puts the case for five films from the decade after the war which show British cinema dealing with gritty social issues and dramatic high standards before the 60s were underway - including It Always Rains on Sunday (1947), The Long Memory (1952), The Browning Version (1951), Yield to the Night (1956) and the focus of today's essay - Mandy (1953).Ealing Studios' Mandy, directed by Alexander Mackendrick was based on the book 'The Day Is Ours' by Hilda Lewis, with screenplay by Nigel Balchin and Jack Whittingham. It's the story of a girl, Mandy Garland, who is diagnosed with a congenital hearing defect and starred Phyllis Calvert, Jack Hawkins and Terence Morgan.As her parents Harry and Christine Garland come to terms with the fact that they have a deaf-mute daughter, they enrol her in special education classes to try to get her to speak. As she struggles to express herself and learn how to lip-read, her parents argue over the best way to deal with her condition and their marriage comes under severe strain. This is compounded by hints of an affair between Christine and Searle (Jack Hawkins) , the headmaster of the school for the deaf where Mandy is enrolled. Although it may be too late for the little girl to make great strides, the specialist training eventually pays off to the point where Mandy says her own name for the first time.While the drama revolves around the parents' sharply conflicting views of what to do for their child, the unpretentious, documentary style adopted by MacKendrick reveals the world through the eyes of the little girl as she responds to the strange way adults around her conduct themselves and the sensitive guidance of her school. And, thanks to the wonderful performance he draws from Mandy Miller, the slow but sure development of this youngster is at the heart of the film.Producer: Mohini Patel.

Clifford Odets and Ernest Lehman's corrosive look at Power in America as typified by an unscrupulous and possibly insane Broadway columnist modeled on Ed Sullivan and Walter Winchell. Brilliantly directed by the underrated Alexander Mackendrick. A must-see.
