The Chill Show with Rich CEO & Co Founder Justin BudsFeed with Amanda Reyes
“The decision to approach Elizabeth Williams has a long journey; indeed one connected initially more to prose, rather than drawing or visual art, and going back a couple of decades. In 1984 the writer/journalist and film and t.v. producer Dominck Dunne wrote an extraordinary essay for Vanity Fair magazine that had much influence upon me. Titled "Justice: A Father's Account of the Trial of his Daughter's Killer", the piece, including the aesthetic details and judgements of, say, the judge, the jury and the defendant's demeanor, as well as the psychological dimensions of Dunne's experience ranks for me as among the best writing of that decade at least (and of course launched him as a major crime reporter on O.J. Simpson and others). The connections between the many episodes on our show is immense. Dunne's daughter who was murdered was, of course, Dominque Dunne who at the time of her murder was not only featured in an episode of Hill Street Blues, the plot of which was precisely the subject of domestic violence, but was also prominent in a number of t.v. movies that Amanda Reyes and I discussed. (I had offered on my latest episode with her to do a whole show on The Day The Loving Stopped.) (Link to listen to the episode with Amanda Reyes mentioned can be found here:https://anchor.fm/mitch-hampton/episodes/INTIMATE-STRANGERS-episode-with-Amanda-Reyes-eoipb4/a-a49a1c5) Dominck Dunne's son, Griffin Dunne, is also quite accomplished. But that one essay had a long lasting effect on me. It made me most conscious of the plight of crime victims and their families and loved ones, and thus, the victim's rights movement. And this was further complicated still by my then anti-death penalty activism, as these two communities, both of which I have great sympathies, often have come into conflict. So the daughter Dominique Dunne was on track to be a major star in Hollywood and you can observe her work on Hill Street Blues as well as other productions. In turn this one essay caused me to be a moderate "true crime" buff. I should mention the late Michelle MacNamara in this regard, probably the best or most representative of this kind of interest. And all the while I was haunted not just by Dominck Dunne's written account but all of these high profile criminal cases. They are almost always used not only in televised news reports but in so many prominent documentaries. Of course one of the themes of this podcast is calling into question the boundaries around fine art, utilitarian art, and the commercial and obscure and so on. So you could say that this episode is very much in keeping with the spirit of our podcast. I was excited to discuss the things we did on this episode and I should note, not a moment too soon that the nature of our discussion is unconventional given the subject matter. We are discussing the the nature of the worst crimes that have been committed by men in the past forty plus years; you could say the nature of evil comes into play. But we are also discussing them in the terms of public service: Williams' illustrations of these perpetrators or predators are essential for the legal system as well as basic, everyday journalism, yet they also keep alive the tradition of portraiture and illustration, which is fundamental to the history of art. Also, speaking more generally, Williams' story is the story of anybody who endeavors to become good at something; meeting mentors or masters in the chosen field, and all the stops in the journey along the way. I hope you enjoy this as much as we did creating it! “ Links to Elizabeth’s beautiful work: http://www.elizabethwilliamstudio.com For a deeper look into Elizabeth's work, this episode, visit our show Facebook page, here: https://www.facebook.com/journeyofanaesthetepodcast --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mitch-hampton/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mitch-hampton/support
Inside the episode with Mitch Hampton "There are literally thousands of t.v. movies that Amanda Reyes and I could have covered. I often ask myself why I like this particular one so much. I think that, in all honesty it comes down to at least three reasons: the emotional directness of the content, the production style(s) of the period in which it was made and the many sided treatment of the social problem it attempts to represent. Emotional directness in dramatic art is a long and abiding interest of mine. Some of my favorite works of art happen to not be emotionally direct in the sense that I am thinking; this quality is not a requirement for me nor an assurance of greatness in and of itself. But when I am thinking of emotionally direct visual drama I do think of Intimate Strangers alongside Cassavetes' A Woman Under The Influence. The many sidedness is Intimate Strangers' greatest strength; it might also be the one quality likely to not be embraced or to be misinterpreted by a contemporary audience. Yet it is nevertheless a fact that people who do evil in the world are always human, never monsters. This film judges harshly Dennis Weaver's character but never stops letting us in on his interiority, his hopes, wishes and dreams. It is the role of the artwork to get into the weeds of all of this. Intimate Strangers ones fairly far for a television production. I always love speaking with Amanda Reyes. She has a love for and knowledge of popular culture that is positively encyclopedic - far greater than my own - and she brings to the subject an intelligence and sensitivity noamtmer the material. Her tastes appear to tend towards the highly supernatural and gothic; mine are decidedly more "naturalistic" but our shared love makes for most interesting episode if I may so myself.” Link to the film so you can enjoy it with us ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdzgl19EEqs&t=3394s Amanda’s Bio and Links to her beautiful work: Amanda Reyes is an archivist, author, film and television historian and academic.

218) Dark Night of the Scarecrow (1981)
Screaming Queenz Queer Horror Podcast goes international this month with a very special guest! Joining me from Austin Texas is Amanda Reyes, my good friend and an amazing writer who brought us ‘Are You In The House Alone’, an incredible book looking at TV movies and, in particular, TV movie horror. We’re looking at Someone’s Watching Me (1978), written and directed by John Carpenter just before Halloween made him a household horror name. A Hitchcockian thriller that’s as tense and chilling as any big screen outing, Someone’s Watching Me stars Lauren Hutton as a TV director stalked in her new high rise apartment by a psycho with a telescope. It also features a hugely progressive lesbian character played by horror icon Adrienne Barbeau. So what are you waiting for? Pop on your oatmeal slacks and kick back and enjoy. You might want to take the phone off the hook though. Who knows what kind of creep is on the line…?
I'm very excited to welcome author and podcaster Amanda Reyes to the show for the first time! She edited and co-wrote the excellent overview book ‘Are You In the House Alone: A TV Movie Compendium' and hosts the TV Mayhem Podcast where she hosts discussions of every type of television film imaginable. I've been a fan of her work for years and her focus on TV movies putting her near the top of any list of current experts in the field. But her knowledge of cinema ranges much wider than just the small screen. With her love of the thriller and horror genres pushing her into often strange territories she can find fascinating parallels that other viewers would miss. On more than one occasion I've been stunned by her deep understanding of obscure horror movies often forcing me to reevaluate my opinion. Plus, her podcasting tendency to go off on great tangents has made for some amazing discoveries of hidden treasures lurking on actor's resumes! I asked Amanda what subject she would like to tackle and she brought up the little-known Italian high fashion world thriller NOTHING UNDERNEATH (1985). I had only caught up with the film about a year ago and really enjoyed it so it seemed like a perfect small topic to dig into. Little did I know that Miss Reyes and I would have so much to say about it! We talk about the film for well over two hours and even discuss the bat-crap crazy ending. Be aware, we give you plenty of warning if you want to avoid spoilers but we just had to talk about the final scenes. Not that the mystery element is the only thing here to enjoy about the movie. We delve into the cast and their careers with some surprising details about certain projects. We debate the effectiveness of fake accents; the treatment of the story's sleazier aspects; the 1980's fashion; the plot's red herrings; the film's rural versus urban visual motif and the telepathic sibling element that drives the entire affair. We had a great time with this film and I hope you have half as much fun listening in. If you have any comments or suggestions the show can be reached at thebloodypit@gmail.com or over on the podcast's FB page. Let us know what you think and feel free to guess about what Amanda and I will be discussing the next time we record!

"All About the Golden Age of the Made For T.V. Movie with Amanda Reyes From Mitch’s Notebook about the episode: “One of many, in my view, most unwelcome developments in public commentary as of late are the explicit demarcations being made regarding culture - usually between the trivial and the essential, or between the irrelevant and the mandatory. The suppressed question then becomes, who gets decide where that line is and should we all fall in line? I am not suggesting that some works of art are not in fact better than others in all sorts of ways, but I am stating that those evaluations have little or nothing to do with the style of art and when, where, or how it was made. I have been a fan of Amanda Reyes' podcast, Made For T.V. Mayhem for sone time now and one of the many things I love about her show is that, for her, dramatic feature productions made for television in the 70s and 80s are never irrelevant and always valuable. Reyes is both a film and television historian and scholar as we all as a film archivist and thus it was a real joy to finally sit down with her and discuss some frankly forgotten gems that happened to have been made for the small screen over several decades. Is Night Terror (Night Drive) starring Valerie Harper dated or irrelevant? Since it is a film representing in frank terms a woman trying to find herself amidst an extreme situation, and since things like that do happen in life, for better and worse, we feel that that particular t.v. movie is always ever relevant. If you listen to our episode you might be inclined agree. We hope you enjoy our discussion as much as we did having it. I learned a lot from Amanda Reyes. Her mind moves very fast and I have to struggle to keep up with her, which in itself was lots of fun. She knows more about television and television history than anybody I have ever met and is a genuinely warm and engaging conversationalist.

Shabbir Razvi, an economist and political analyst, joins the show.
