It's Die Hard under martial law!This week, hosts Phil and Liam are taking on one of the most provocative and eerily prescient action-thrillers of the ‘90s - The Siege (1998) - with special guest Jason Bailey, the esteemed film critic, author, and podcaster whose work has appeared in The Playlist, The New York Times, Vulture, Vice, Rolling Stone, Slate, and more. Not only is Jason a brilliant film thinker, but he might know our show even better than we do!Released three years before 9/11, The Siege follows Denzel Washington's no-nonsense FBI agent as he tries to stop a wave of terrorist attacks in New York, while navigating political interference from Annette Bening's enigmatic CIA operative and the creeping authoritarian overreach of Bruce Willis' hardline general. Meanwhile, Tony Shalhoub delivers one of the film's most deeply human performances, grounding the story's complex, often unsettling politics.We dig into the film's depiction of New York City, what it gets right, wrong, and unexpectedly prophetic, and how it reckons with issues of surveillance, civil liberties, and national security in ways that still feel shockingly relevant today. We also break down the performances of the four leads, the film's tense, procedural thriller mechanics, and where it sits in the broader landscape of '90s action films that flirted with real-world geopolitics.So strap in for one of our most in-depth, thought-provoking episodes yet!Listen now, wherever you get your podcasts!THE SIEGE trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dDVppzDwJAAt the time of release, THE SIEGE is streaming on the Starz app and is available to rent or buy on Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, Apple TV, Fandango and all the usual platforms!Click here to subscribe to our Patreon feed 48 HOURS OF BUDDY MOVIES!

Our Election Day episode! Michael Douglas is President Andrew Shephard. A dad, a Democrat, and a widower smitten with a lobbyist. What could possibly go wrong? Back in 1995, little did. The Rob Reiner film was a modest hit, winning with both audiences and film critics. But now, decades later, where does this ficticious President's agenda fit into our 24/7 news cycle? Is there any place for gun laws in a romantic comedy? And is Annette Bening's character a pit bull or a pussycat?

Movie of the Year: 1996Mars Attacks! (feat. Paul from Waiting For Doom!)In this episode of the Movie of the Year podcast, the hosts dissect Mars Attacks!, Tim Burton's star-studded, darkly comedic, and satirical take on alien invasion movies. Released in 1996, Mars Attacks! blends sci-fi with Burton's unique quirky style, creating a cult classic filled with humor, horror, and biting social commentary. This deep dive covers everything from Burton's vision to the film's eccentric ensemble cast and the cynical undertones driving the plot.Tim Burton's Unique Vision for Mars Attacks!One of the key points discussed in this Movie of the Year episode is Tim Burton's distinct creative style and how it shapes Mars Attacks!. Known for his darkly whimsical films, such as Edward Scissorhands and Beetlejuice, Burton was at the peak of his career in the 90s. Mars Attacks! fits squarely into his love for campy, exaggerated B-movies, while offering a modern take on the classic alien invasion genre.The hosts examine how Burton's practical effects and early CGI create an otherworldly yet campy aesthetic. The exaggerated character designs of the Martians, along with their chaotic behavior, reflect Burton's signature blend of the grotesque and the humorous. His direction adds layers to what could have been a simple homage to 1950s sci-fi, transforming it into something both original and absurdly chaotic.The Star-Studded Ensemble Cast of Mars Attacks!The podcast explores the impressive ensemble cast of Mars Attacks!, which includes big names like Jack Nicholson, Glenn Close, Annette Bening, Pierce Brosnan, and a young Natalie Portman. Each actor embraces the film's bizarre and comedic tone, with Nicholson standing out in dual roles as the U.S. President and a sleazy Las Vegas developer.The Movie of the Year hosts analyzes how Burton uses this all-star cast to subvert genre conventions, frequently dispatching major characters in surprisingly brutal ways. This decision to “kill off” so many stars adds to the film's unpredictable, chaotic nature. The ensemble cast also highlights the sheer scale of the film, with each actor bringing their unique energy to the outrageous situations they find themselves in—whether it's running from Martian lasers or trying to reason with the alien invaders.Exploring the Cynicism in Mars Attacks!Beyond its absurd humor and visual chaos, Mars Attacks! is filled with a biting cynicism about American politics and culture. The podcast delves into how Burton uses the film's comedic violence and caricatured characters to comment on human arrogance, particularly the overconfidence of government officials, military leaders, and scientists. Despite their resources and plans, humanity is powerless against the relentless, nonsensical violence of the Martians.This layer of cynicism gives Mars Attacks! its satirical edge, mocking the ineptitude of leadership and blind nationalism. The Movie of the Year hosts discuss how Burton's portrayal of politicians and military figures, who are often more concerned with appearances than solutions, resonates with modern audiences. The film becomes not only an homage to sci-fi but also a darkly humorous critique of societal institutions, offering relevant commentary on government incompetence and human folly.Guest Star Spotlight: Paul from Waiting for DoomA special treat for this episode is the appearance of Paul, co-host of the Waiting for Doom podcast, which is dedicated to all things Doom Patrol and comic book culture. Paul brings a wealth of knowledge about pop culture and superhero media, making his contributions to the discussion of Mars Attacks!...
In this festival special, Anna Smith island hops across some of the most unique film festivals of the season, taking listeners from Sea Change festival in Scotland's Tiree to the London Film Festival before ending in Mallorca to hear about the upcoming Evolution Mallorca International Film Festival 2024. First, Anna reports from this year's Sea Change Film Festival in the Inner Hebrides. She speaks with filmmaker Jeanie Finlay (Your Fat Friend, Seahorse) and festival-goers like Reclaim The Frame's Melanie Iredale about their time at Scotland's only annual festival dedicated to powering women in film. Next, she heads to the BFI London Film Festival to meet actor Deba Hekmat and writer Helen Simmons, whose film Last Swim has its premiere at this year's festival. This coming of age drama tells the story of Ziba, a young woman who celebrates her A-Level results with friends while grappling with a personal secret. With Anna, Deba discusses the authenticity of the film's dialogue, how it captured Gen Z sensibilities almost perfectly, and how she resonated with the character of Ziba. Helen reflects on working with a translator to capture an authentic Farsi that is spoken by Ziba and her mother in Last Swim, as well as speaking about the lack of representation of driven and intelligent young women in film. Anna also catches up with some friends of the podcast when she is out and about at LFF. Finally, it's off to Spain for a preview of the Evolution Mallorca International Film Festival. Anna sits down with festival director Sandra Lipski to discuss some of her feminist festival highlights. Sandra gives us an insight into the 2024 lineup, including the festival's plan to welcome five time Academy Award-nominee Annette Bening to Mallorca's sunny shores.

Our Presidential Series wraps up with The American President, a fluffy, charming rom-com from Aaron Sorkin (The West Wing) and Rob Reiner (A Few Good Men)! It has an all-star cast, led by Michael Douglas and Annette Bening. The plot can be summed up in a simple logline: Can the President of the United States fall in love and build a relationship?This is a fun, snappy movie, and it was a hit in its time. But how does it hold up? Has the ugliness of modern politics ruined our view of the subject entirely?Find out all the answers on this week's Cinemavino! #AmericanPresident #politics #romance #comedies #election2024
There's an ever-so-slight mix-up this week over whether a prestige BBC drama about tennis coaches should be masquerading as a Spanish language show about pirate ambulances, but that particular wrinkle thankfully gets ironed out in time for us to tackle Apples Never Fall on BBC1, in which Sam Neill may or may not have murdered Annette Bening. Plus David Mitchell and David Mitchell star as a pair of twins in Ludwig, also on the Beeb, and Sophie Turner takes a turn as godmother of crime Joan Hannington in Joan on ITV1. Also, now that the embargo has lifted, Boyd and Kay are able to review A Very Royal Scandal and James once again gets into the reasons why he wasn't bewitched by Agatha All Along.
If you have a buck instead of a book you too can time travel with us back to 1999! As usual one host works in a comic book origin story for AMERICAN BEAUTY as part of a clever ruse to avoid talking about Kevin Spacey in one of his Oscar-winning performances. The other host talks about aging out of being Mena Suvari's peer to Annette Bening. There is some hope of personal growth in this episode!

Today on the show we have Oscar® and two-time Emmy® Nominee Simon Kinberg.He has established himself as one of Hollywood's most prolific filmmakers, having written and produced projects for some of the most successful franchises in the modern era. His films have earned more than seven billion dollars worldwide. Kinberg graduated from Brown University and received his MFA from Columbia University Film School, where his thesis project was the original script, “Mr and Mrs Smith.” The film was released in 2005, starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.Upcoming, Kinberg will premiere his action spy film “The 355”, which will be released theatrically by Universal on January 7, 2022. Directed, co-written and produced by Kinberg, the film was one of the biggest deals out of the 2018 Cannes Film Festival and stars an ensemble of A-list actresses including Jessica Chastain, Lupita Nyong'o, Penelope Cruz, Diane Kruger and Fan Bingbing.A dream team of formidable female stars come together in a hard-driving original approach to the globe-trotting espionage genre in The 355.When a top-secret weapon falls into mercenary hands, wild card CIA agent Mason “Mace” Brown (Oscar®-nominated actress Jessica Chastain) will need to join forces with rival badass German agent Marie (Diane Kruger, In the Fade), former MI6 ally and cutting-edge computer specialist Khadijah (Oscar® winner Lupita Nyong'o), and skilled Colombian psychologist Graciela (Oscar® winner Penélope Cruz) on a lethal, breakneck mission to retrieve it, while also staying one-step ahead of a mysterious woman, Lin Mi Sheng (Bingbing Fan, X-Men: Days of Future Past), who is tracking their every move.As the action rockets around the globe from the cafes of Paris to the markets of Morocco to the opulent auction houses of Shanghai, the quartet of women will forge a tenuous loyalty that could protect the world—or get them killed. The film also stars Édgar Ramirez (The Girl on the Train) and Sebastian Stan (Avengers: Endgame).The 355 is directed by genre-defying filmmaker Simon Kinberg (writer-director-producer of Dark Phoenix, producer of Deadpool and The Martian and writer-producer of the X-Men films). The screenplay is by Theresa Rebeck (NBC's Smash, Trouble) and Kinberg, from a story by Rebeck. The 355, presented by Universal Pictures in association with FilmNation Entertainment, is produced by Chastain and Kelly Carmichael for Chastain's Freckle Films and by Kinberg for his Kinberg Genre Films. The film is executive produced by Richard Hewitt (Bohemian Rhapsody), Esmond Ren (Chinese Zodiac) and Wang Rui Huan.His original series “Invasion” premiered on Apple TV+ on October 22nd. He co-created the show with David Weil, serves as Executive Producer, and wrote or co-wrote 9 of its first 10 episodes. It is considered one of Apple's most ambitious series to date as it was filmed on 4 different continents. The show has already been renewed for a second season, which Kinberg is show running and Executive Producing again. He is also the Executive Producer of the upcoming show “Moonfall” for Amazon. Also upcoming, Kinberg produced the sequel to "Murder on the Orient Express,” “Death on The Nile,” directed by Kenneth Branagh and starring Gal Gadot, Armie Hammer, Annette Bening and another all-star cast. Needless to say this is one heck of an episode.

On this week's episode of the podcast, we watched Tim Burton's 1996 sci-fi comedy Mars Attacks!, starring Jack Nicholson, Glenn Close, Annette Bening, Pierce Brosnan, Sarah Jessica Parker, Michael J. Fox, Martin Short Pam Grier, Rod Steiger, Jim Brown, Lukas Haas, Danny DeVito and Natalie Portman.Mars Attacks! was based off of the 1960s-era trading card series by Topps. In the series, Earth is invaded by cruel, hideous Martians who hope to colonize the planet and enslave its population. In the movie, Earth is invaded by cruel hideous Martians. But they don't seem to want to colonize the planet as much as engage in wanton destruction for its own sake. To the extent that the film has a plot, it follows several groups of people. There is President James Dale, played by Nicholson, his wife and daughter. There is a young donut shop employee and his family in Nevada. There is an aging boxer turned casino employee, his ex-wife and their children. And there are a pair of talk show hosts.The film shows first contact followed by the Martian war on Earth. Most of the characters are either weak and incompetent, like President Dale and the American military, vain and oblivious, like the various members of the media, or outright rubes, like some of the more ordinary people in the film. The Martians rampage across the country, killing everyone they see including the president and the first lady. They are eventually stopped when two characters, the young donut shop employee and his grandmother, discover that the yodeling on Slim Whitman's “Indian Love Call” is enough to cause their heads to explode. They defeat the Martian invasion and are awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for their exploits.The taglines for Mars Attacks were “Nice planet. We'll take it!” and “Yikes! They've landed!”Mars Attacks is available for rent or purchase either Amazon or Apple TV.Episodes come out every two weeks so we'll see you then with an episode on Shadow Conspiracy, a 1997 conspiracy thriller directed by George P. Cosmatos and starring Charlie Sheen, Linda Hamilton, Stephen Lang and the great (and much-missed) Donald Sutherland.You can find Shadow Conspiracy on Amazon Prime and Apple TV for rent or purchase.And don't forget our Patreon, where we watch the films of the Cold War and try to unpack them as political and historical documents!

In the film, Chris Pine plays poolman Darren Barrenman. He fights for what is right in Los Angeles, which leads him down a path of corruption & real-estate & water & power. Pine assembled an impressive cast including Annette Bening, Danny DeVito, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Stephen Tobolowsky, Clancy Brown, John Ortiz, Ray Wise, Juliet Mills, and DeWanda Wise. Poolman premiered at the Toronto Film Festival to wretched reviews, so we knew we had to see it! Never watch this film, but do listen to our take on Chris Pine's Poolman!

This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes back film critic Cláudio Alves to discuss the 2004 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Hilary Swank won for her performance in "Million Dollar Baby," beating Annette Bening in "Being Julia," Catalina Sandino Moreno in "Maria Full of Grace," Imelda Staunton in "Vera Drake," and Kate Winslet in "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind."

Two Old Bitches: Stories from Women who Reimagine, Reinvent and Rebel
TOB followers know that we are obsessed with discovering positive and powerful roles for older women in movies and TV. That's why we lure our sister Screen Bitches -- Debbie Zimmerman (Women Make Movies), Malaga Baldi (Baldi Literary Agency) and Aruna Rao (Gender at Work) – onto the podcast at least twice a year to schmooze about what we're watching and how TV and movies challenge (or regrettably affirm) stereotypes of older women in popular media. This time, we were kind of gobsmacked. For three reasons. First, because Debbie was inducted into the Academy of Motion Pictures and Sciences (Oscars!) this year --so this episode features her firsthand account of an Academy newbie, walking the (other) red carpet. Second, because we actually found at least one film and a dramatic series with really superb portrayals of older women. If you haven't seen Slow Horses (Apple TV) or Nyad (Netflix), stop what you're doing right now and tune in. We thought that Annette Bening and Jodie Foster were extraordinary in the way they portrayed 60-year old Diana Nyad and her best friend Bonnie Stoll in Nyad's swim from Cuba to Florida. (Only three of us loved the movie.) And while they are not main characters, three —not one, but three!— powerful and pivotal women over 50 in Slow Horses – Sophie Okonedo, Saskia Reeves, and Kristin Scott Thomas -- epitomize characteristics you rarely see attributed to women of a certain age. And third, we were so inspired – especially by Slow Horses – that TOB is now launching a screening tool to let movie and TV makers know we're watching. You know how Alison Bechdel brilliantly coined The Bechdel Test as a set of three simple criteria to measure the active presence (or absence) of women in film? Well, we love that test – and appreciate the influence it's had on generating more and better roles for women -- so we're introducing The TOBies, a set of 5 criteria to measure the quality of presence of OLDER women in TV and film. And they are that the older women are: 1) NOT solely defined by their age; 2) integral to the plot; 3) making independent choices (e.g., they have agency); 4) NOT seeking a man as ‘the prize'; 5) there are at least two older women (e.g., no tokenism). We'd love to know what you think! And to know if you see any films or TV shows where you think the portrayals of older women meet these criteria.

At the very top of this episode, Nick gives a full review the eagerly awaited prequel, "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga," and then he welcomes legendary actor Stephen Tobolowsky (Ned Ryerson from "Groundhog Day") back to the podcast to chat about his latest role in Chris Pine's wonderfully weird new movie "Poolman," in which Tobo appears in drag! Plus, Tobo talks about his terrific history with Annette Bening and Jennifer Jason Leigh, his working relationship with David Byrne, how the Talking Heads video for "Road to Nowhere" was shot in his pool, and how he is responsible for how the band Radiohead got their name, and he talks about how you're never too old to play Romeo. Then, Esmeralda Leon joins Nick to close out their Food Myths topic with the truth about dull knives, salty potatoes, and skinless chicken. And their taste test through Thailand continues with Esma and Nick snacking on some crunchy seaweed. [EP247]
Tony Award winner Ben Platt is headed back to a Broadway stage. But not in an acting role. From May 28th to June 15th, Ben plays Broadway's historic, newly remodeled Palace Theatre. Ahead of his residency, Ben sits down with Tamsen. Plus, Ella Beatty makes her Broadway debut in the Tony-nominated revival of Appropriate. Ella's the daughter of Warren Beatty and Annette Bening. But she's making a name for herself in this huge Broadway debut. She chats with Paul Wontorek.
1999 brought audiences a remarkable number of unforgettable films, like: The Matrix, The Virgin Suicides, 10 Things I Hate About You, Eyes Wide Shut, The Talented Mr. Ripley, Magnolia, The Mummy— the list is nearly endless. Some were appreciated by the Academy while some were forgotten, but one movie did impress both voters and viewers alike: American Beauty. Its worldwide success was a surefire path to winning Best Picture, but not every component of the film was so lucky.Sophia and Nick bring back one of their favorite series- with a twist!- by discussing Annette Bening's performance in this controversial, yet insightful suburban satire. They marvel at her impressive performance before debating how she lost in such a dominating film and deciding if she should have won instead!Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok @oscarwildpodFollow Sophia @sophia_cimFollow Nick @sauerkraut27Music: “The Greatest Adventure” by Jonathan Adamich

Spring may be a few weeks away, but like Moira Rose, award season will always be our most favorite time of year! We welcome our good Judy Joshua Clement to talk about the 2024 Academy Awards, which will be on Sunday March 10th at the Dolby theater. We break down this year's nominees in every category - and talk about the very up in the air best actress race. It's one of the closest major categories in years. Will it be Lily Gladstone, Emma Stone, or Sandra Hüller? Let's face it - we love Annette Bening and Carey Mulligan but it's just not their year. We also fully acknowledge the very likely Oppenheimer sweep as well as the overblown Barbie "controversy". If you want to get deep in the weeds with some real Inside Baseball Oscar talk, you've come to the right place. Break out your ballots and your rented Harry Winston jewels and join us for our annual Oscars Special!

On this week's show, Extreme Friends of the Pod and co-authors of The World Only Spins Forward, Isaac Butler and Dan Kois, fill in for Dana Stevens and Julia Turner. The hosts begin by dissecting The Zone of Interest, filmmaker Jonathan Glazer's audacious movie about the Holocaust that's told through the lens of Nazi commandant Rudolf Höss and his wife Hedwig as they live their somewhat ordinary lives in a compound outside of Auschwitz. The film has garnered both praise and severe critique from critics, many of whom are split on Glazer's detached aesthetic and imaginative approach to depicting genocide. The Zone of Interest has racked up five Oscar nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director. Then, the three dive into Nyad, the (maybe?) true story of marathon swimmer Diana Nyad, as she attempts to swim unassisted from Cuba to Florida. Annette Bening stars in the titular role alongside Jodie Foster, both of whom are up for Oscars (Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress, respectively). Finally, what is a good director, anyway? What does it look like, what does it mean, and is there a difference between producing, screenwriting, and directing – or is it some strange amalgamation of all three? These questions come from a listener, Emily, and the panel attempts to answer them. In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, the panel discusses their film preferences while airborne, inspired by David Mack's essay for Slate, “What Makes a Perfect ‘Plane Movie'?” Email us at culturefest@slate.com.
