Podcasts about Ballad

What begins as the usual tall-timber yarn slowly mutates into something stranger, the way American myths often do when the sun goes down and the bottle gets light. Each swing of the axe summons another impossible catastrophe blamed on that big blue-oxed bastard, until the line between folklore and fear blurs like bad ink in a rainstorm. Somewhere out in those woods, the legend still walks… and he's taking the whole republic with him, one cosmic blunder at a time.

The Festival of Hungry Ghosts is upon us – and today on Script Apart, we're betting it all on black. Ballad Of A Small Player is the casino-set new drama from director Edward Berger and writer Rowan Joffe, adapted from the novel of the same name by author Lawrence Osborne. It follows Colin Farrell as a character who introduces himself as Lord Boyle – an aristocratic charmer, who we soon come to learn is seriously, existentially adrift amid the slot machines and baccarat tables of Macau's gambling houses. As Boyle's true self – and name – is revealed, we tumble with him down a neon-splashed, teal-and-red rabbit hole of addiction and emptiness. And it was this emptiness I was particularly eager to discuss when I sat down recently with Edward and Rowan, across two separate conversations. Rowan is the creator of the TV show Tin Star, and the writer of films like 28 Weeks Later and Before I Go To Sleep, which he also directed. He's also, as tells me in this conversation, a recovering alcoholic, sober for many years. Edward, meanwhile – well, if you've followed the Oscars and indeed this show over the last few years, Edward needs little introduction. Conclave, his 2024 drama about the election of a new pope, and All Quiet On The Western Front, his 2022 Best International Picture-winning war epic, have seen him rocket to modern cinema's top table in terms of respected auteurs.In the midst of that success, though, Edward has described finding himself plagued by an empty feeling. And in this episode, he tells me how that informed this latest story. We get into the curiosity that drives his storytelling and also clear up something I read long ago about Ed's love of rollerskating – and I also hear from Rowan about what it is that he thinks casinos represent in our culture; the capitalist tendencies they act as temples to.Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

BALLAD OF A SMALL PLAYER MOVIE REVIEW Did you know that there are other casinos in the world and Las Vegas doesn't corner the market on gambling? It's true! Also the tables offer more than poker and blackjack. That's right, sometimes the cards are used for a game called baccarat. It's a simple game in […]

On October 19th, a group of masked men broke into the Louvre in broad daylight and made off with some of France's crown jewels. Suspects are now in custody, but the online fervor is still going strong. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss the sordid satisfaction of watching a heist play out, both onscreen and off. They dive into the debacle at the Louvre, along with a range of fictional depictions, from the fantasy of hyper-competence in “Ocean's Eleven” to the theft that goes woefully awry in Kelly Reichardt's new film, “The Mastermind.” Part of the fun, it seems, lies in rooting for those who identify and exploit the blind spots of an institution. “Someone else, just like me, is seeing that everybody is an idiot. But, unlike me, they're able to best those people in charge,” Fry says. “It's an alternative morality—a morality of wits.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“The Mastermind” (2025)“Ocean's Eleven” (2001)Stella Webb's impression of “the Louvre heist Creative Director”Jake Schroeder's “Ballad for the Louvre”“Showing Up” (2022)“The Italian Job” (1969)“How to Beat the High Cost of Living” (1980)“Drive” (2011)“Le Cercle Rouge” (1970)“This Is a Robbery: The World's Biggest Art Heist” (2021)“Good Time” (2017)“George Santos and the Art of the Scam” (The New Yorker)New episodes drop every Thursday.

"Come back, come back, come back, Bridey Murphy back to the place you once knew in a land where you were so happy and to those who loved you so true" - "The Ballad of Bridey Murphy", Eddy McKean The Undead is the past life of Roger Corman's Edgar Allan Poe movies. What did he keep, what (and who) did he ditch, and did women really have such drastic support garments in 1347 or whenever this is supposed to take place?

This week on "Streaming Without A Paddle" Andrew and Ted discuss the Netflix original "Ballad of a Small Player" from "Conclave" director Edward Berger and starring Colin Farrell. Billed as a black comedy psychological thriller, Brendan Reilly (Farrell) assumes the fictitious identity of "Lord Doyle" in the gambling capital of the world Macau after embezzling nearly 1 million pounds from a client back in England. Having lost pretty much all of it playing baccarat and running up a tremendous tab at a luxury hotel Reilly / Doyle is struggling to win money to stay afloat. That's when he meets a female loan shark ... Dao Ming (Chen) who seemingly shows him compassion after being confronted by the wife of another client that has taken his own life due to his debt to her. Tune into the show to find out what Andrew and Ted thought.

Send us a textOn this trip, we're looking at the conventional candidate for the first modern novel in English.  Defoe's story of a resourceful man shipwrecked on a desert island is so much more than a ripping yarn: it speaks to the rise of a literary vernacular language, the values of an increasing bourgeois and expansionist society, and of spiritual awakening.  Come aboard!Text: https://ia600207.us.archive.org/26/items/cu31924011498676/cu31924011498676.pdfAdditional Music:"Theme from Emergency!" by Nelson Riddle. https://archive.org/details/tvtunes_206"The Ballad of Gilligan's Island" by Sherwood Schwartz.  https://archive.org/details/tvtunes_275Support the showPlease like, subscribe, and rate the podcast on Apple, Spotify, YouTube Music, or wherever you listen.

Edward Berger hat mit Im Westen nichts Neues und Konklave hohe Erwartungen geweckt. In Ballad of a Small Player, seinem neuesten Film, nimmt er sich dem Thema Spielsucht an – mitten im grellen Casino-Kosmos von Macao. Doch kann ein Film funktionieren, wenn die Hauptfigur schon am Abgrund beginnt und sich dann nicht wirklich weiterentwickelt? Und was passiert, wenn das Setting zwischen Traum und Realität schwankt, ohne sich klar zu entscheiden? Wir sprechen über Colin Farrells schweißnasses Spiel, verschwommene Nebenfiguren und eine Stadt, die größer scheint als der Film selbst.

Peter Caffrey joins the show to discuss his novel, The Ballad of Seven Bastards.We dive into the splatter western genre and how it explores moral ambiguity and violence.Peter shares how the Western setting exposes truths about manipulation and greed that modern stories can't.He describes his struggle with structure and how a unique approach helped bring the novel together.We talk about origins, voice, and rewriting until the story feels right.Peter discusses his decision to shelve the book while the genre surged in popularity, focusing on authenticity over trends.We discuss his characters—none truly redeemable, but all deeply human.We explore the necessity of grotesque honesty in fiction and why avoiding standard horror tropes keeps his writing surprising.Peter unpacks the role of humor, both as a defense and an ingredient for deepening dread.He shares darkly comic stories and how real-life struggles with illness shaped his outlook and fiction.Peter talks about compartmentalization, survival, and how his experience with cancer changed his attitude toward suffering, both real and fictional.He explains how fiction, unlike journalism, creates individual truth for the reader.The episode ends with thoughts on individuality, creativity, and the joys of making readers uncomfortable in the best way.Website https://petercaffrey.comTwitter/X: https://x.com/p_caffrey?lang=enFacebook (Author Page): https://www.facebook.com/100077415820994/Facebook (Author Page - Alternative): https://www.facebook.com/p/Peter-Caffrey-Author-61564582937618/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DNYsWRAybvM/ (posts found, profile link not directly provided)Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/18772593.Peter_CaffreyAmazon Author Page: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Peter-Caffrey/author/B07MSBW6ZVAmazon - The Ballad of Seven Bastards: https://www.amazon.com/Ballad-Seven-Bastards-Peter-Caffrey-ebook/dp/B0FF6DDZXCThriftBooks: https://www.thriftbooks.com/a/peter-caffrey/5486829/Godless.com: https://godless.com/products/fucked-up-bedtime-stories-episode-5-legs-eleven-by-peter-caffrey-godless-exclusives

Neil Rosen starts us off with "Bugonia" which is the latest from director Yorgos Lanthimos who seems to find new ways to torture Emma Stone in every movie he makes. Bill Bregoli tells us about the Netflix movie "Ballad of a Small Player" in which Colin Farrell sweats a lot and gambles in far-off Macau. Is it a safe bet? And Bill McCuddy tells us about "Christy" starring Sydney Sweeney as boxer Christy Martin. We've also got Bill M's interview with Jodie Foster about her latest movie "A Private Life." You can hear it right here. We've also got the Springsteen sort of biopic "Deliver Me From Nowhere" as well as "Nuremberg" starring Russell Crowe as a Nazi! Plus we've got the nuclear thriller from Kathryn Bigelow "A House of Dynamite" and the documentary Ben Stiller made about his parents called "Stiller and Meara: Nothing is Lost."

Rethinking Comics kicks off with a deep dive into the emotional rollercoaster of Ice Cream Man issue #5, aptly titled "Ballad of a Falling Man." Right off the bat, the hosts, Josh and Joshua, explore the heavy themes of suicide, existentialism, and the complexity of human relationships, all wrapped in the chilling narrative of a man plummeting from a corporate skyscraper. As they dissect the juxtaposition between the protagonist's reflective descent and the obliviousness of those trapped in their mundane office lives, they shine a light on the often-ignored reality of mental health and the weight of our choices. With a blend of insightful commentary and personal anecdotes, they invite listeners to ponder what it means to live authentically in the face of mortality. This episode serves as a sneak peek into a special series, Rethinking Comics, enticing fans to join both the Rethinking Faith patreon community and to become an official member Systematic Geekology for deeper, exclusive content that promises to challenge and engage comic lovers and theology nerds alike.Rethinking Comics kicks off with a fascinating discussion about Ice Cream Man #5, where the hosts dive into the existential themes woven into this horror comic. Joshua Noel and Josh Patterson explore the complex characters that confront life, death, and the meaning behind their choices, particularly focusing on the character Bill, who jumps from a corporate building contemplating his life and the relationships he's left behind.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of October 31, 2025. A cute new movie worth adding to the annual family Halloween rotation is "Stitch Head," which is kind of a mix of "Monsters Inc" & "Frankenweenie.” But the new torture film, “Bugonia" is a big fat F- from Andy, for pretentiousness, violence, and being a total waste of time. For streaming, Netflix has something in between the good and the bad with "Ballad of a Small Player" starring Colllin Farrell in the depths of gambling addiction in this R-rated mystery crime thriller.  The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy, with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.  Listen regularly on your favorite platform, at kslnewsradio.com, or on the KSLNewsRadio App. Join the conversation on Facebook @FanEffectShow, or Instagram @FanEffectShow.

Tom and Lorenzo flipped on their mics and reviewed three slightly problematic films that dropped on streaming this week: "A House of Dynamite," "Hedda," and "Ballad of a Small Player," debating the high and low points of each film and coming to different conclusions on all of them. 

The bonuses keep on coming here on Soundtracking, as Edward Berger makes a welcome return to discuss his new film, Ballad Of A Small Player, which is streaming right now on Netflix. Starring Colin Farrell and Tilda Swinton, it tells the story of a high-stakes gambler lying low(ish) in Macau, who can't quite hide from his past.

It's Halloween weekend and there isn't a lot of horror but Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy still have eight films to talk about. They include a documentary about an archbishop who wrote the gay disco anthem of the ‘70s (I Was Born This Way) and another true story about drugs, family and revenge in the Ozarks (Violent Ends). There are some holiday-themed titles including a daughter realizing her mom may have fallen into a cult (Self-Help) and an animated Frankenstein-esque tale for kids (Stitch Head). The director of Conclave has Colin Farrell gambling away in Macau (Ballad of a Small Player) and Nia DaCosta swaps race and gender in an updating of Henrik Ibsen's 1891 play (Hedda). Diane Lane watches her family come apart in a new America (Anniversary) and the pair share their memories on the 40th anniversary of a masterpiece (Back to the Future).3:32 - I Was Born This Way13:44 - Self-Help21:53 - Stitch Head30:43 - Violent Ends42:14 - Ballad of a Small Player51:14 - Anniversary1:09:10 - Hedda1:20:33 - Back to the Future (40th Anniversary re-release)CLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCASTBe sure to check outErik's Weekly Box Office Column – At Rotten TomatoesCritics' Classics Series – At Elk Grove Cinema in Elk Grove Village, ILChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik's Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.

This whispered gothic ballad of love and betrayal was inspired by a single passing line in The Rats in the Walls — the brief mention of Lady Mary de la Poer, whose death was sealed in silence, her story buried by time and blessed by trembling hands. Written by yours truly.From that single whisper of history, this three-part tragedy was born — a lament carried through generations, and a song the stones of Exham Priory might still remember.

"Ballad Of A Small Player" is a British psychological thriller directed by Edward Berger and written by Rowan Joffé, adapted from Lawrence Osborne's 2014 novel of the same name. The film stars Academy Award-nominee Colin Farrell as Lord Doyle, a high-stakes gambler laying low in Macau, where he spends his nights playing baccarat. As his debts spiral out of control, Doyle finds an unlikely lifeline in Dao Ming (Fala Chen), a casino hostess who holds secrets of her own. The film had its world premiere at the 52nd Telluride Film Festival before continuing its run at TIFF, where it received strong acclaim for its flashy direction, bombastic score, and Farrell's high-wire committed performance. Farrell, Chen, and Berger were all kind enough to spend time speaking with us about their work and experiences making the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now available to stream on Netflix. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

While the Anglo-American style was to use heavy artillery to control threatening bears, the vaqueros preferred to rope them from the back of a well-trained horse. This method of bear control required a great deal of skill and was a dying vaquero art. What can we learn from this?

In his new movie, “Ballad of a Small Player,” Colin Farrell (The Penguin, The Banshees of Inisherin, In Bruges) plays a gambling addict who's not adverse to going all in.
