Oscar-nominated actress Maggie Gyllenhaal follows up her Oscar-nominated directorial debut (The Lost Daughter) from a few years ago with this VERY loose reimagining/adaptation of a portion of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.  This portion of course focuses on the desire of Frankeinstein's monster (played by Oscar-winner Christian Bale) create a companion which he gets helps doing from another mad scientist Dr. Euphronius (Oscar-nominated Annette Bening) in 1930's Chicago.  The undead woman brought to life is Ida (Oscar-nominated Jessie Buckley) and she relishes her newfound freedom.  Together they embark on a Bonnie & Clyde-like adventure, raising hell wherever they go - hot on their trail are two detectives played by Emmy-nominee Peter Sarsgaard and Oscar-winner Penelope Cruz.  And chaos ensues.....Here Comes the Motherf&%king Bride!!!Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

A War, A Bride, and Kaiju Vibes This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl review Netflix's sci-fi military action movie War Machine, break down Maggie Gyllenhaal's wild gothic swing The Bride!, and head back into the Monsterverse for Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2, Episodes 1 and 2.

Is Alan Ritchson becoming the king of “large man solves impossible nonsense” cinema? Was this dumb-fun in the right way or just loud?

How was Christian Bale's monster performance? Did the punk tone work? Did the movie deserve better than its opening weekend, or was the audience basically saying “absolutely not, you little goblin”? Rating out of 10 Mary Shelly’s Bonnie and Clyde Possession Acid Trip Brian: 6.2/10 Darryl:5.1/10 Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (AppleTV) Apple TV+ Monsterverse series Season 2 premiered February 27, 2026 Episode 1: Cause and Effect Summary Season 2 opens with Monarch thrown into chaos by Keiko's return after being presumed dead for decades. At the same time, Cate goes against orders to try to save Shaw, and that rescue effort helps unleash a dangerous new Titan. Broadly, the episode works as a reset button for the season: it reconnects the fractured cast, throws everyone back into crisis mode, and pushes the story deeper into Skull Island and the larger Titan threat. Episode 2: Resonance Summary The second episode splits its tension between two fronts. Lee and Keiko investigate a secretive village tied to a cult-like devotion to a mysterious sea creature, while Cate runs into a deadly stowaway situation on the Monarch side of the story. Reviews and synopses describe the episode as expanding the threat beyond Skull Island, with a rogue Titan moving toward busy shipping lanes, so it feels less like setup and more like the season starting to flex its monster-muscle a bit. Returning cast includes Kurt Russell, Wyatt Russell, Anna Sawai, Kiersey Clemons, Ren Watabe, Mari Yamamoto, Joe Tippett, Anders Holm, and Takehiro Hira Did the season come back strong? Are the human characters finally balancing better with the monster spectacle?

S svojim scenaristično-režijskim prvencem, priredbo romana Elene Ferrante Izgubljena hči, je Maggie Gylenhaal izkazala izredno ambicioznost v pristopih k pripovedovanju zgodb in uporabi široke palete filmskih prijemov. Z Nevesto! gre korak dlje, toda pri tem za slog in eksperimentalnost žrtvuje narativno in sporočilno konsistentnost. Film se začne z duhom Mary Shelley, avtorice romana Frankenstein ali Sodobni Prometej, ki se po skoraj stoletju ujetosti v nekakšnih vicah odloči obsesti mlado in divjo prostitutko Ido, ravno ko je ta v mondeni restavraciji na večerji. Po vse bolj podivjanih izpadih se Ida spravi nad mafijskega šefa, ki sedi za sosednjo mizo, in ga obtoži serije femicidov. Njegova pomočnika jo promptno odstranita po strmih stopnicah in tako pristane v mrtvašnici. Ravno v tem trenutku – in to je le eno izmed številnih tovrstnih naključij – v Chicago prispe Frankensteinova pošast, ki zdaj nosi stvariteljevo ime, in prosi znanstvenico Cornelio Euphronius, naj mu naredi družico, da ne bo več osamljen. Tako dobita Idino truplo in kmalu je ta oživljena, še bolj podivjana in neustavljiva kot prej. Zgodba potem zavije v gangsterske vode, sploh ko se nanju spravi detektiv Wiles s svojo izjemno sposobno pomočnico Myrno. Avtorica se v nadaljevanju osredini še na tretjo nit pripovedi, Frankensteinovo obsedenost s filmskim zvezdnikom Ronnniejem Reedom, saj se je iz njegovih filmov in predstav naučil vsega, kar ve o življenju, z empatijo in plesom vred. Vse te zgodbe se razvijejo do precej pričakovanih zaključkov, vendar pri izvedbi precej zmanjka, sploh v povezavah med nitmi in odločitvami likov, ki vodijo k spremembam. Ti narativni pristopi bodo marsikoga vrgli iz ritma in prepričljivosti filmskega sveta, čeprav je vsaka scena zgrajena z neverjetnim občutkom za detajl in estetiko. Skoraj zagotovo pa nihče ne bo spregledal mogočnega in očitnega feminističnega sporočila, ki prežema ves film, od občutkov ujetosti in zlorabljenosti Mary Shelley do nezmožnosti poklicnega napredovanja doktorice Euphronius in nesojene detektivke Myrne ter seveda Idinega boja za pravico in svobodo, ko se preimenuje v Nevesto. V drugi polovici filma postane ikona feminističnega gibanja, ko si ženske začnejo tetovirati črno packo ob ustih, ki je njej ostala od postopka oživljanja, medtem ko streljajo v zrak ter naznanjajo svojo neodvisnost in neustrašnost. Tu in tam se zdi, da je Maggie Gylenhaal preveč neposredna, ko recimo Nevesta kriči »Jaz tudi!«, toda to je samo ena izmed številnih namernih, eksplicitnih metafor in simbolov, ki gradijo širši narativ filma. Ker sta med osrednjimi temami ljubezen do filma in njegova osvobajajoča moč, je film Nevesta! seveda poln poklonov in pomežikov, od pričakovane klasike Frankensteinova nevesta iz leta 1935 do kultnega muzikala Rocky Horror Show, mojstrovine Freda Astaira Cilinder in pa seveda gangsteriade Bonnie & Clyde, ki je zlomila stari Hollywood. Ta referenca je precej jasno razvidna že z zgodbo o morilskem pohodu ljubimcev, ki nista za ta svet, dodatno pa se Glyenhaal filmu Bonnie & Clyde pokloni z izbiro Annette Bening, žene glavnega igralca tega filma Warrena Beatyja, v eni osrednjih vlog. Zasedba je v celoti fenomenalna. Čeprav zaradi prej omenjenih nekonsistentnosti v naraciji ni zmeraj povsem jasno, zakaj kateri izmed likov ravna tako, kot ravna, pa je vsak izmed njih zmeraj povsem prepričljiv v tem, kar počne, še najbolj pa Jessie Buckley v naslovni vlogi, ko z neverjetnim zanosom preklaplja med osebnostmi in kompleksnimi duševnimi stanji. Nevesta! je svojevrstna filmska izkušnja, ki bo marsikoga razočarala. Ker je delno gangsteriada, kdaj pa kdaj muzikal, občasno družbena drama in tu in tam znanstvenofantastična grozljivka, na koncu ni prepričljiva v nobenem izmed teh žanrov, je pa ves čas model za divji upor proti sistemu diskriminacije. To je drznost, ki je povsem v duhu časa, če je moč soditi po poplavi nagrad za Eno bitko za drugo in za Grešnike. Recenzijo je napisal Igor Harb, bere Igor Velše.

With amazing performances from Michael Douglas, Annette Bening, Martin Sheen, David Paymer, Samantha Mathis, and Michael J. Fox; witty writing from Aaron Sorkin; and deft direction from Rob Reiner, the American President is a movie that we need right now.

“Living for the STREEP” Series: We are here to celebrate the career of Mary Louise Streep….now known to most as Meryl Streep who has become widely known by critics, film-lovers, and audiences as likely our GREATEST LIVING ACTRESS.  Ever since her earlier breakout roles in the late 1970's in films such as The Deer Hunter, and Kramer Vs. Kramer, she has carved out a filmography filled with brilliant performances in memorable films spanning a variety of genres including biopics, thrillers, family dramas, AND comedies.  During this time, she has also earned a STAGGERING TWENTY-ONE Oscar nominations including THREE wins.  Over the next several months, I will be revisiting one notable Streep film each month – each highlighting a different type of performance – culminating with the May 1 release of the long-awaited sequel featuring one of her more ICONIC roles as Miranda Priestly, The Devil Wears Prada 2.The late, great Oscar-winning filmmaker Mike Nichols (The Graduate, Silkwood, Working Girl) directed this biting comedic drama about Diane, an actress Diane (Meryl Streep) struggling with drug addication and her complicated relationship with her mother (Shirley MacClaine) who was also a famous performer.  Also written by the late, great Carrie Fisher (Star Wars, When Harry Met Sally) who was adapting her own semi-autobiographical novel of the same name, this story delves mostly into Diane's frought (and often comedic) misadventures following her recent treatment at a drug clinic including her on-set struggles, her romantic life, and her attempts to carve out a new career for herself.  This quotable gem featured a stacked supporting cast including Dennis Quaid, Annette Bening, Oliver Platt, Richard Dreyfuss, and the late, great Gene Hackman. Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon  Send us a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Each season has its quota of film noir.

Hollywood has killed itself. Now they want to kill you.We all know Hollywood pushes left-wing madness on their audiences—even as audiences are no longer going to the movies. But now they're doubling down to have George Clooney promote the killing of old people who become surplus to requirements. And actress Annette Bening is helping.We reveal the latest Hollywood push for assisted suicide.As a counterpoint, we feature some words of wisdom from our good friend, Dennis Prager, who, after becoming a quadriplegic, still values his life and is showing people that becoming disabled does not render life worthless. You have to listen to his comments. Watch the show for the update.And the left loves telling you the science is settled and how to live your life, regardless of the damage caused by their policies. Then a few years later they go oops—we made a mistake. You now must do the opposite. The damage is immense. We reveal the latest "expert" scandal.And we ask how many children have died because we “trusted the science” over common sense? Oh and don't forget to take your kids in for their millionth COVID booster.And don't believe the lie that Trump is engaging in vindictive lawfare. We reveal how John Bolton, Trump's former National Security Advisor, was planning his leaking crime spree before he even joined the administration.The indictment (linked below) says it all.And how was the “No Kings Protest” near you? Ours was very white and very angry. The protesters didn't like us very much, can't imagine why.We tried talking to them so that you didn't have to. Watch the show for an entertaining display of Trump Derangement Syndrome, with a steaming hot side of antisemitism.Someone needs to remind these protesters that there was an election recently that had a very definite result.And two weeks ago our cat scared us more than Joe Biden on a flight of stairs when he (Top Cat) went walkabout while we were out of town, and a neighbor reported a dead tabby near their house. We put two and two together and assumed Top Cat was dead only to be surprised a few hours later when he apparently rose from the dead. For our recovery and Top Cat's comfort, we are remaking/rereleasing our quick recipe for tilapia.

Phil and Emily kick off a brand-new miniseries exploring the films and television of legendary director Mike Nichols in the 2000s. First up: the notorious 2000 sci-fi romantic comedy “What Planet Are You From?”, starring Gary Shandling, Annette Bening, and John Goodman.Joined by critic and returning guest Emma Stefansky, the trio dive deep into this infamous box-office bomb unpacking its chaotic tone, lack of internal logic, and bizarre premise about an alien sent to Earth to impregnate a woman. They discuss how the film reflects a turning point for Nichols, why it derailed Gary Shandling's movie career, and what it reveals about Hollywood's early-2000s obsession with “blank check” comedies.From alien sex jokes to comedy-career implosions, this episode is a hilarious, insightful breakdown of one of the strangest films of the decade and the perfect start to our Mike Nichols retrospective.

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!
