Dana and Tom with returning guest, VP Morris (an award-winning thriller and horror writer and podcaster; vpmorris.com, @teawriterepeat on IG and X, The Dead Letters Podcast; previously on Scream and The Shining) discuss the 1950s mystery classic, Rear Window for its 70th Anniversary: directed by Alfred Hitchcock, written by John Michael Hayes, music by Franz Waxman, starring James Stewart, Grace Kelly, Raymond Burr, and Thelma Ritter.Plot Summary: In Alfred Hitchcock's "Rear Window," we find ourselves confined within the claustrophobic confines of a Greenwich Village apartment, peering through the lens of LB Jefferies (James Stewart), a wheelchair-bound photographer. His summer pastime is a voyeuristic venture into the lives of his neighbors, a cross-section of urban archetypes played out in the building's courtyard. Each window frames a fragment of humanity, from the lonely Miss Lonelyhearts to the tantalizing Miss Torso.The plot pivots on Jeff's suspicion that a neighbor, Lars Thorwald (Raymond Burr), has murdered his wife. This suspicion, shared and fueled by his glamorous girlfriend Lisa (Grace Kelly) and his nurse Stella (Thelma Ritter), drives the narrative forward. Hitchcock masterfully crafts tension not through action, but through the act of watching—turning the audience into voyeurs complicit in Jeff's obsessions."Rear Window" is not merely a suspense thriller; it is a meditation on isolation and the ethics of observation. Stewart's performance, marked by vulnerability and determination, anchors the film's exploration of human curiosity and its consequences. Grace Kelly, in her role, adds a layer of sophistication and intrigue, embodying the tension between adventure and domesticity. "Rear Window" remains a timeless classic, a window not just into the lives of its characters, but into the genius of Hitchcock's cinematic vision.Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Background01:29 Background, Cast, and Recognition for Rear Window02:20 Recognition for Rear Window04:14 Relationship(s) to Rear Window09:13 What is Rear Window About?24:54 Plot Summary for Rear Window26:53 Did You Know?31:47 First Break32:29 Ask Dana Anything41:12 Best Performance(s)50:16 Best/Favorite/Indelible Scene(s)54:34 Second Break55:33 In Memoriam56:32 Remembering Bob Newhart01:01:54 Best/Funniest Lines01:05:31 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy01:10:20 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance01:15:38 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:26:20 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:29:06 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:31:31 Remaining and Listener Questions01:47:02 Thank You to VP Morris01:48:05 Final Thoughts for the Week01:50:04 CreditsYou can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast) or find our Facebook page at Greatest Movie of All-Time Podcast.For more on the episode, go to:

Dana and Tom with guest Jesse Sertle (fellow group member of CineMadison, previously on Rounders, @jsertle on IG) discuss the dawn of New Hollywood with Easy Rider (1969): written and directed by Dennis Hopper with Peter Fonda and Terry Southern, starring Dennis Hopper, Peter Fonda, and Jack Nicholson.Plot Summary: In the open road odyssey "Easy Rider," director Dennis Hopper and co-star Peter Fonda embody the restless spirit of the 1960s counterculture. The film, a rambling narrative of freedom and disillusionment, follows two bikers, Wyatt (Fonda) and Billy (Hopper), as they traverse the American Southwest in search of authenticity and liberation. The duo's journey, funded by a drug deal, becomes a kaleidoscopic exploration of the American landscape, both physical and cultural.The film captures a nation in transition with its stunning cinematography showcasing the vastness of America while contrasting it with the intimacy of its small towns and eccentric characters. Along the way, they encounter an assortment of characters, from an idealistic lawyer (Jack Nicholson) to a communal farm, representing the era's ideological clashes."Easy Rider" is a raw, poignant, and at times, tragic reflection on the price of freedom and the inevitable collision between personal liberty and societal norms. The film's haunting ending, set against the backdrop of a sun setting over the American landscape, leaves viewers with a sense of loss and contemplation. Hopper's direction, combined with Fonda's cool demeanor and Nicholson's electrifying performance, creates a cinematic experience that is as timeless as it is of its time.Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Welcome01:59 Cast and Recognition04:12 Relationship(s) to Easy Rider07:54 What is Easy Rider About?10:47 The Impact of Easy Rider on the Film Industry15:50 The Relevance of Easy Rider Today17:40 Plot Summary for Easy Rider19:22 Did You Know?21:09 First Break23:20 Ask Dana Anything...25:16 Best Performance(s)34:08 Best/Favorite/Indelible Scene(s)42:05 Second Break43:01 In Memoriam43:36 Best/Funniest Lines44:54 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy50:28 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance55:44 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty57:49 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:03:51 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:06:29 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:07:55 Remaining QuestionsYou can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast) or find our Facebook page at Greatest Movie of All-Time Podcast.For the video version of this episode, go to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKeAEQ4qkUQFor more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/easy-rider-1969-ft-jesse-sertleFor the entire rankings list so far, go to:Full Graded List - Greatest Movies of All-Time Keywords:Easy Rider, counterculture, new Hollywood, independent film, freedom, disillusionment, disconnect, Dennis Hopper, Jack Nicholson, Easy Rider, film industry, independent projects, studio system, 1970s culture, family, backgrounds, death row, Wisconsin prisons, novelty, classicness, rewatchability, ending,...

Dana and Tom with returning guest Kieran B (Host and Creator of the Best Picture Cast; @bestpicturecast on X, IG, Letterboxd) and new guest, Sara Shea (Host and Creator of Shea Cinema; @sheacinema on X, IG) revisit one of the defining legal drama in film, 12 Angry Men (1957): directed by Sidney Lumet, written by Reginald Rose, score by Kenyon Hopkins, cinematography by Boris Kaufman, starring Henry Fonda, Lee J. Cobb, Martin Balsam, Jack Klugman, Jack Warden, and Robert Webber.Plot Summary: "12 Angry Men" is a masterclass in cinematic storytelling, a film that transcends its simple setting to explore the complexities of human nature and the intricacies of the American justice system. Directed by Sidney Lumet, this 1957 classic features a powerhouse performance by Henry Fonda, leading an ensemble cast through a tense, emotionally charged jury deliberation.The plot revolves around twelve jurors tasked with deciding the fate of a young man accused of murder. As the film unfolds almost entirely within the confines of a single jury room, the characters' personal biases, prejudices, and moral dilemmas come to the forefront. Fonda's Juror 8 stands as the lone voice of doubt against an initial consensus of guilt, gradually dismantling the case piece by piece through logical reasoning and relentless questioning."12 Angry Men" remains a timeless reflection on justice, democracy, and the power of reasonable doubt. It's a film that challenges viewers to look beyond the surface and question the assumptions that underpin their beliefs. This is not just a courtroom drama; it is an enduring examination of the moral and ethical struggles that define us all.Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Guest Introductions03:38 The Dreaded New Guest Questions12:36 Background for 12 Angry Men - Cast and Recognition16:03 Relationship(s) to 12 Angry Men24:51 What is 12 Angry Men About?31:13 Is 12 Angry Men Too Idealistic or Naive?36:54 Plot Summary38:32 Did You Know?39:56 First Break40:37 Ask Dana Anything50:57 Who Would You Want to Play You in the Movie of Your Life?55:29 The Stanley Rubric56:55 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy01:05:00 The Stanley Rubric - Impact and Significance01:18:27 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:29:34 Second Break01:39:09 In Memoriam01:42:52 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:48:26 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:52:29 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score/Final Score01:54:07 Remaining Questions for 12 Angry Men02:09:05 Thank You to Our Guests02:12:56 CreditsYou can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast) or find our Facebook page at Greatest Movie of All-Time Podcast.For more on the original episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/51-12-angry-men-1957For more on the episode, go to:

Dana and Tom welcome back guest, Terry Bartley (Author (https://www.terrybartleywriter.com/) and Host (Most Writers are Fans podcast)), and new guest, Adam Freed (Managing Editor and Senior Film Critic at (MovieArcher.com)), to discuss the seminal comic book film, Batman (1989): directed by Tim Burton, written by Sam Hamm and Walter Skaaren, music by Danny Elfman, starring Jack Nicholson, Michael Keaton, Kim Basinger, and Billy Dee Williams.Plot Summary: In Tim Burton's "Batman," we are plunged into a dark, brooding Gotham City where crime festers in the shadows and hope seems a distant dream.

Dana and Tom welcome new guest, Scott Cole (Twitter-X/IG (@colecommascott) movie commentator, and occassional writer/contributor for The Movie Friends podcast.com (@moviefriendspodcast)), to the show to discuss the neo-noir classic, Chinatown (1974): directed by Roman Polanski, written by Robert Towne, starring Jack Nicholson, Faye Dunaway, and John Huston. Plot Summary: Chinatown (1974), directed by Roman Polanski, is a masterful blend of noir and tragedy that stands as one of the great achievements in American cinema. The film stars Jack Nicholson as Jake Gittes, a private detective whose specialty is uncovering marital infidelities. When he is hired by a woman claiming to be Evelyn Mulwray (Diane Ladd) to investigate her husband's suspected affair, Gittes is drawn into a labyrinth of deceit, corruption, and murder. Set against the backdrop of 1930s Los Angeles, the plot thickens as Gittes discovers the true Evelyn Mulwray (Faye Dunaway) and realizes he has been duped. The deeper he digs, the more he uncovers a sinister conspiracy involving water rights and the powerful land magnate Noah Cross (John Huston).Chinatown is not just a detective story; it is a commentary on the corruption and decay that lie beneath the surface of society, a theme that remains relevant to this day. In the end, as the iconic final line suggests, "Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown," the film reminds us that some mysteries are better left unsolved, and some wounds never heal.0:00 Welcome – First-Time Guest Questions5:05 Cast and Recognition9:03 Relationship(s) to the Film14:19 What is this Film About?22:52 Why is this Film Important to the Detective/Mystery Genre?26:46 The Elephant in the Room…34:55 Plot Summary36:27 Did You Know?38:51 First Break41:14 Ask Dana Anything54:17 Best Performance(s)1:08:23 Best/Favorite/Indelible Scene(s)1:16:20 In Memoriam1:17:41 Best/Funniest Lines1:19:38 The Stanley Rubric/Legacy1:25:24 Impact/Significance1:31:53 Novelty1:37:09 Classicness1:42:05 Rewatchability1:46:02 Audience Score/Recap1:46:27 Final Score1:47:22 Remaining Question(s)1:53:02 Listener Question(s)1:57:23 Guest Acknowledgement1:58:30 Final Thoughts1:59:55 CreditsYou can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast) or find our Facebook page at Greatest Movie of All-Time Podcast.For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com//post/chinatown-1974-ft-scott-coleFor the entire rankings list so far, go to:Full Graded List - Greatest Movies of All-Time Ronny Duncan Studios
