Send us a text=Eugene O'Neill's development as a playwright was deeply rooted in his turbulent personal life and a deliberate rejection of the popular theater of his time. He evolved from a young man adrift to become a revolutionary force in American drama.O'Neill's upbringing was steeped in theater, but not in a way that he admired. His father, James O'Neill, was a successful actor known for a single, melodramatic role - that of playing Edmond Dantès in a stage adaptation of Alexandre Dumas's novel, The Count of Monte Cristo.James O'Neill first performed the role of Dantès in 1883 and it became his career-defining part. While it brought him immense financial success, he felt trapped by it, as audiences only wanted to see him in that role. This frustration over his squandered artistic talent became a central theme in Eugene O'Neill's autobiographical play, Long Day's Journey Into Night, where the father figure, James Tyrone, is a famous actor who regrets giving up classic roles for a lucrative, but repetitive part.Eugene O'Neill grew up on the road, traveling with his father and witnessing firsthand the "ranting, artificial" nature of the American stage, which he grew to despise. He wanted to create something more profound and truthful.He lived a restless and often desperate life, working as a sailor, a prospector, and a journalist. These experiences exposed him to the harsh realities of life and the people on the fringes of society—sailors, derelicts, and prostitutes—characters who would become central to his works.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

C'est l'heure des Journées Européennes du patrimoine ce samedi matin, l'occasion de pousser les portes d'hôtels pas comme les autres Des hôtels "historiques" dans des cadres d'exceptions ou insolites. C'est l'ADN de la collection MGallery : plus de 100 hôtels en France et à travers le monde, qui vous ouvrent leurs portes ce week-end, sans être obligé d'y dormir. Ce sont leur Héritage Days : vous allez découvrir l'histoire, les coulisses des lieux grâce à des visites exceptionnelles et aussi des expériences, autour de l'art, de la mixologie et de la gastronomie. Je vous donne mes deux coups de cœur : est-ce que vous avez une idée d'un hôtel historique pas très loin d'Europe 1, où l'on peut d'ailleurs déguster - avec modération - un cocktail, installé confortablement dans un fauteuil club sous des voutes d'ogive, une demi-douzaine de vitraux et sous le regard de 76 statues de disciples ? Est-ce que c'est dans une église ? Presque ! Une chapelle désacralisée. Elle fait partie d'un ensemble d'édifices du 17ème siècle que Jean-Michel Wilmotte a restauré. Vous êtes au domaine Reine Margot à Issy-les-Moulineaux. C'était le refuge de Marguerite de Valois en 1606 quand elle a fui la peste. Des histoires, vous allez en avoir ! Et pour mon second coup de cœur, on file à Strasbourg dans une institution : la Cour du Corbeau, situé à deux pas de la Cathédrale. C'est un bijou d'architecture Renaissance avec des coursives, des balustrades en bois et une façade typiquement alsacienne, qui a vu défiler un grand nombre de personnalités notamment Alexandre Dumas, Mozart et même le Comte Dufour. Je ne connais pas ! Vous êtes sûre que c'est une personnalité ? Normal, c'était le pseudonyme de Frédéric II. Il y était venu incognito dans l'espoir de rencontrer Voltaire. Mais à cause de son éternuement, tout est tombé à l'eau. En effet, ses 2 gardes pas très malins se sont précipités instinctivement pour lui tendre un mouchoir, alors qu'on ne le fait pas à n'importe qui. L'aubergiste le démasque et s'empresse de prévenir la ville. Le roi de Prusse s'enfuit. Cette ancienne auberge est devenue aujourd'hui la chambre 207. Une histoire parmi d'autres qui vous attendent ce week-end.

En este nuevo episodio de Estamos de Cine cambiamos de pantalla: dejamos la grande para sumergirnos en la pequeña. Repasamos las series que han marcado el verano de 2025 con un "Súper Filtro Rachel" cargado de títulos imprescindibles: la esperada temporada de Miércoles, la dureza de Mobland, la comedia deportiva de Stick: Cracks del golf y la desconcertante producción española Furia. Un episodio pensado para seriéfilos que no quieren perder detalle de lo que se cuece en la televisión y las plataformas Min 4: MIÉRCOLES: LOS ADAMS RETUERCEN SU ESENCIA La segunda entrega de Miércoles confirma el fenómeno global que Netflix alumbró en 2022. La joven heredera de la familia Addams, encarnada de nuevo por Jenna Ortega, regresa a la Academia Nunca Más para enfrentarse a un verano seriéfilo marcado por misterios más oscuros, giros sobrenaturales y un retrato aún más ácido de la adolescencia. Tim Burton mantiene la atmósfera gótica y la ironía corrosiva, pero la serie busca ahora mayor madurez narrativa, combinando thriller juvenil y comentario social con una estética que vuelve a hipnotizar. NOTA EDC SERIES: 3,75 Min 13: "MOBLAND: TIERRA DE MAFIOSOS" ¿LA SERIE DEL AÑO? El desenlace de Mobland cumple con lo prometido: una inmersión sin concesiones en los códigos de la mafia contemporánea, donde la lealtad y la traición conviven en cada plano. La serie, que arrancó como un retrato coral de familias enfrentadas por el control del negocio, alcanza en su último capítulo un clímax de violencia contenida y pactos imposibles. Con ecos del cine clásico de Scorsese y Coppola, pero adaptada al ritmo de las plataformas actuales, Mobland despide su temporada consolidándose como una de las propuestas más intensas y adictivas del año. NOTA EDC SERIES: 4 estrellas Min 18: FURIA: LA SENSACIÓN ESPAÑOLA DEL VERANO La ficción española Furia se ha convertido en uno de los títulos más desconcertantes y comentados del verano. Con un tono que oscila entre el thriller psicológico y el drama social, la serie explora el lado más oscuro de las emociones humanas y la violencia soterrada que late en nuestro entorno cotidiano. Su narrativa fragmentada, cargada de simbolismo y de atmósferas opresivas, desafía al espectador con un juego constante entre lo real y lo imaginado. No es una propuesta fácil ni busca serlo: Furia apuesta por incomodar, por sacudir conciencias y por abrir debate sobre el miedo, la rabia y la fragilidad de las certezas. NOTA EDC SERIS: 3,5 estrellas Min 27: "STICKS: CRACKS DEL GOLF": BUENROLLISMO A LO TED LASSO La comedia deportiva de Apple TV+ cierra su primera etapa confirmando que el golf también puede ser terreno fértil para el humor ácido y el retrato generacional. Stick: Cracks del Golf despide temporada con un episodio que mezcla lo disparatado y lo entrañable, jugando tanto con la sátira del mundo elitista del deporte como con la evolución personal de sus protagonistas. El desenlace mantiene la frescura y el ritmo irreverente que han convertido a la serie en una sorpresa de la temporada, a la vez que siembra dudas y expectativas sobre el futuro de sus personajes dentro y fuera del green. Un cierre divertido y con más de un guiño a la cultura pop que consolida la serie como comedia ligera pero con pegada. NOTA EDC SERIES: 3,5 estrellas Min 33: "DOS TUMBAS". Thriller de catálogo made in Netflix Dos tumbas, creada por Agustín Martínez y escrita bajo el seudónimo Carmen Mola, es un thriller de intriga ambientado en la costa malagueña que impacta por su intensidad dramática en apenas tres episodios. En él, la abuela Isabel (una imponente Kiti Mánver) se convierte en investigadora fronteriza cuando sus nieta y su amiga desaparecen sin respuestas oficiales. Lo que comienza como una indagación desesperada se transforma en una implacable cruzada de venganza, donde la justicia paralela amenaza con devorar a quien la busca. NOTA EDC SERIES: 2,5 estrellas MIN 39: NOVEDADES Y ESTRENOS:THE RUNAROUND (Prime Video) Prime Video desembarca este septiembre con The Runarounds, una serie juvenil musical creada por Jonas Pate (co-creador de Outer Banks). Con sus ocho episodios disponibles desde el primer día—estrenados el 1 de septiembre de 2025—la ficción plantea un verano crucial en Wilmington, Carolina del Norte. NOTA EDC: 3,5 estrellas MIN 43: MONTECRISTO (MOVISTAR +) ¿QUIÉN HA HECHO ESTO? Montecristo propone una versión contemporánea del clásico de Alexandre Dumas al trasladar la venganza del mítico Conde a las altas esferas del capitalismo global. William Levy encarna a Alejandro Montecristo, un carismático empresario cubano fundador de una startup tecnológica que irrumpe en la élite madrileña con una fortuna envuelta en misterio. En realidad, es Edmundo Dantés, traicionado y dado por muerto, de regreso para ajustar cuentas tras dos décadas. NOTAS EDC SERIES: 1 estrella MIN 46: "FALSO AMOR Y VENGANZA" (NETFLIX) also amor y venganza se distancia del formato pasivo de su antecesor (El Estafador de Tinder) para adoptar una narrativa activa y empoderadora. La docuserie despliega seis episodios de aproximadamente 40 minutos que siguen a Cecilie Fjellhøy —víctima emblemática del timador Simon Leviev— y a la investigadora privada Brianne Joseph en su cruzada por ayudar a otras víctimas de estafas románticas a recuperar sus vidas, su dignidad y, sobre todo, cerrar heridas profundas. Min 48: LA MEJOR BSO DE SERIE DEL VERANO PARA ÁNGEL LUQUE Nuestro experto en series, Anagle Luque, pone la aguja en el tocadiscos del verano para repasar las ficciones más sonadas y elegir la banda sonora que mejor lo ha definido. ¿Habrá que apostar por el pulso criminal de Mobland: Tierra de Mafiosos? ¿Se impondrá la oscuridad magnética de Miércoles? ¿O nos sorprenderá con una joya escondida en el catálogo infinito de las plataformas? Sea cual sea la respuesta, lo que está claro es que las series vuelven a escena. Subimos el telón y damos comienzo al 3x01 de Estamos de Cine – Edición Series en Radio Castilla-La Mancha.

Send us a textOn our season finale to our 4th blockbuster year in the podcast space,  we're going to answer the burning question on everyone's mind these days: What's the deal with Richard Lester? In order to find the answer, we're digging into the notable works from his four decades in show business, starting with 1964's A Hard Day's Night starring John Lennon Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr aka the Beatles along with Wilfred Brambell, Norman Rossington, John Junkin and Victor Spinetti then onto 1973 &74's The Three & Four Musketeers starring Oliver Reed, Michael York, Richard Chamberlain, Frank Finlay, Raquel Welch, Faye Dunaway, Christopher Lee & Charleton Heston and topped off with 1983's Superman III starring Christopher Reeve, Richard Pryor, Jackie Cooper, Marc McClure, Annette O'Toole, Robert Vaugh, Annie Ross, Pamela Stevenson and Margot Kidder.My guests this week are the ever-reliable Roseanne Caputi and fresh from the sweltering fields of the Sacramento Valley, camera in hand and twice the photobug that Jimmy Olsen ever could be, Gordon Alex Robertson. Before we bumble and stumble and pratfall our way into the madcap, muddled mind of Mr. Lester, the synopses: A Hard Day's Night follows the Fab Four during a 24-hour period as they attempt to escape the responsibilities and madness of fame, their managers --who need them to just stay put for a television appearance-- and the misdeeds of Paul's ornery grandfather who keeps throwing a monkey wrench in everyone's plans. The Three & Four Musketeers adapts the classic Alexandre Dumas swashbuckler, following the adventures and exploits of D'artagnan a young swordsman who travels from Gascony to Paris to join the King's Royal Musketeers as his father did before him.

From there it's non-stop intrigue, war and tragedy as D'artagnan and his three cohorts try to rescue Queen Anne and her dress maker, the lovely Lady Constance, from the dastardly machinations of Count Rochefort and Milady di Winter, two of the Cardinal's most dangerous and effective spies. Superman III features The Man of Steel pitted against Ross Webster, a ruthless business tycoon, who enlists a bumbling computer programmer Gus Gorman to try and control the global coffee and oil markets.  Thwarted by Superman at every turn, Ross and Gus build a living supercomputer to stop him for once and for all.

Greg Jenner is joined in nineteenth-century France by historian Professor Olivette Otele and comedian Celya AB to learn about acclaimed novelist Alexandre Dumas. Alexandre was born to an innkeeper's daughter and a legendary Black general who fought for Napoleon. After his father's death the family grew up in rural poverty, but after a visit to Paris as a teenager, Dumas fell in love with the city and its theatre. Using his father's connections he found a job there and was soon a successful playwright, before turning his attention to novels. He was a prolific author, writing such blockbusters as The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Christo. But amidst the writing, Dumas also found plenty of time for romantic dalliances, political entanglements, and global travel. This episode explores his extraordinary life and the incredible works of literature he created, set against the turbulent background of French politics in the years after the Napoleonic wars. If you're a fan of French revolutionary politics, trailblazing Black figures and the messy personal lives of best-selling authors, you'll love our episode on Alexandre Dumas.If you want more Black history with Professor Olivette Otele, check out our episode on the Chevalier de Saint-Georges.

In part four of Alexandre Dumas, we cover General Dumas's time under the command of Napoleon Bonaparte. Dumas would be sent to engage the "unwindable" parts of France, laying siege to the city of Mantua, and recovering a secret letter just in time to save his troops, but would have his named wiped from the newspapers by a jealous Napoleon. Demoted for “insubordination,” Alexandre went on to lead a subdivision in pursuit of the Austrians through the northern mountains of Italy. Personal tragedy fueled his rage, and Austrian soldiers gave him the bitter moniker “The Black Devil.” After an unbelievable shootout on the Bridge of Tyrol, Dumas would be sent on a secret expedition before a massive armada set sail for the sands of Egypt. Here, Alexandre would begin to truly understand the dangerous ego of the infamous Napoleon Bonaparte. Tune in for part four to learn more! (Ep. 059)

There's a returning series bonanza this week as we take our pick from The Gone and The Mayfair Witches, both returning to the Beeb. But that's okay as we also have two big ticket originals making their TV debut this week, specifically Keeley Hawes and Freddie Highmore comedy thriller The Assassin on Prime Video and Sam Claflin-starring Alexandre Dumas adaptation The Count Of Monte Cristo on U&Drama. Plus there's much discussion of the correct pronunciation (and actual location) of Guildford.Note: time stamps are approximate as the ads throw them out, so are only meant as a guide.

In part three of our series on Alexandre Dumas, we see the French Revolution enter phase two with the arrival of the Reign of Terror, led by the infamous Maximilien Robespierre. During this turbulent period, Alexandre earned a reputation as a commander with a remarkable ability to transform undisciplined troops into effective fighting forces — a skill that eventually elevated him to the rank of General. However, his rise was not without hardship. The French armies suffered heavy casualties under the rule of a government that had recently adopted the guillotine to dole out punishment. Through it all, Alexandre remained principled, denouncing the regime's bloodthirsty tactics while staying loyal to a country determined to see its revolution through.

In part two of our series on the legendary French soldier Thomas-Alexandre Dumas, we witness the rise of a humble soldier as he climbs the ranks of the newly established national military during the early days of the French Revolution. After famine ravaged the population, France was in turmoil and hungry for change, leading the people to overthrow their king and establish the first democratic nation in modern Europe. Soon, Austria threatened to crush the French uprising, and Alexandre's battalion was stationed in a small town in the French countryside. It was there that he would fall in love—and despite being a person of color in a time when racism was still rampant—he was granted the hand of his beloved. But the French Revolution was only in its infancy, and Alexandre would soon be called upon to help command France's first all-Black legion of soldiers.

Send us a textDescription: An immersive reading of excerpts from The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas translated by Lowell Bair with reflection on alternative and complementary care, rosemary and plot devicesWebsite:https://anauscultation.wordpress.comWork:excerpts from The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas translated by Lowell Bair“My son, all I have to give you is fifteen ecus, my horse, and the advice you've just heard. Your mother will give you the recipe for an ointment that a Gypsy woman taught her how to make: it miraculously heals any wound that doesn't reach the heart. Make the most of all these gifts, and have a long, happy life.”  “At five o'clock the next morning d'Artagnan got up, went to the kitchen, and, among  several other ingredients that history has not revealed to us, asked for some wine, olive oil, and rosemary. Then he made an ointment, which he put on his many wounds. He changed the compresses himself and would not allow the doctor to be called in. Thanks to the efficacy of the Gypsy ointment and also, perhaps, to the absence of the doctor, by that evening he was back on his feet, and by the next day he had almost completely recovered.”“[It was] an isolated, sinister-looking little house in the distance. […] the man whom Athos had found with such difficulty lead him into his laboratory, where he had been wiring together the clattering bones of a skeleton. The body was assembled and the head lay on the table. Everything else in the room showed that he was devoted to the study of the natural sciences: there were labeled jars with snakes in them; dried lizards in black wooden frames gleamed like cut emeralds; bundles of fragrant herbs, no doubt endowed with powers unknown to ordinary men, hung from the ceiling.” References:de Macedo LM, Santos ÉMD, Militão L, Tundisi LL, Ataide JA, Souto EB, Mazzola PG.

The Lady of the Camellias (French: La Dame aux camélias) is a novel by Alexandre Dumas, fils, first published in 1848, that was subsequently adapted for the stage. The Lady of the Camellias premiered at the Theatre de Vaudeville in Paris, France on February 2, 1852. An instant success, Giuseppe Verdi immediately set about to put the story to music. His work became the 1853 opera La Traviata with the female protagonist "Marguerite Gautier" renamed "Violetta Valéry".  In the English-speaking world, The Lady of the Camellias became known as Camille and sixteen versions have been performed at Broadway theatres alone. The "lady of the camellias" is Marguerite Gautier, who is based on Marie Duplessis, the real life lover of author Dumas, fils.

The Lady of the Camellias premiered at the Theatre de Vaudeville in Paris, France on February 2, 1852. An instant success, Giuseppe Verdi immediately set about to put the story to music. His work became the 1853 opera La Traviata with the female protagonist "Marguerite Gautier" renamed "Violetta Valéry".  In the English-speaking world, The Lady of the Camellias became known as Camille and sixteen versions have been performed at Broadway theatres alone. The "lady of the camellias" is Marguerite Gautier, who is based on Marie Duplessis, the real life lover of author Dumas, fils.

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
