Dieses Mal muss es einfach klappen. Nach drei Jahren voller BoP-Missstände erwartet jeder, dass die 24 Stunden von Le Mans in diesem Jahr wieder spannend werden. Und die ersten beiden WM-Läufe vor dem Klassiker an der Sarthe lassen genau das auch erhoffen: Das Feld liegt so eng zusammen wie zuletzt zu den gewaltigen LMP1-Zeiten. PITWALK-Chef und Podcaster Norbert Ockenga ist in Le Mans vor Ort, war auch schon bei den WM-Läufen in Imola und Spa – und hat sich ein umfassendes Bild verschafft. In der ersten Folge der großen Podcastwoche aus Le Mans erörtert er die Besonderheiten zwischen Hypercars und LMDh – und geht bei einer Schalte live in die Box von Peugeot Sport der Frage nach dem Umgang mit den für 2026 neuen Reifen, den Unterschieden zwischen Qualifikation und Rennen sowie den Eigenheiten des Peugeot 9x8 auf den Grund. Als Gesprächspartner hat er dazu Emmanuel Esnault am Mikrofon – den Teamchef von Peugeot. Mehr zu den 24 Stunden von Le Mans, die dieses Jahr erstmals wieder echt das größte Wagenrennen seit Ben Hur werden könnten, lest Ihr auch in der aktuellen Ausgabe der Zeitschrift PITWALK: https://shop.pitwalk.de/magazin/127/ausgabe-84?c=6

Många av filmhistoriens mest kända verk har historien som tema – Ben-Hur, Gladiator, Ivanhoe, Braveheart, De tre musketörerna med flera. Andra filmer har blivit så ryktbara att de själva har blivit en del av historien och omgivits av myter, vilket gör det svårt att skilja sanning från bluff. Hit hör inte minst några av de stora Hollywoodfilmerna på 1940-talet, som Casablanca och Riddarfalken från Malta. I det här avsnittet ger vi oss i kast med några av dessa filmer och granskar deras historiska aspekter i detalj.Särskilt intressanta är de individer som förekommer i filmerna. Har de funnits eller inte? När vi tittar närmare på flera av dem visar det sig snart att förvånansvärt många faktiskt har verkliga förlagor. När Orson Welles skapade huvudpersonen i Citizen Kane utgick han från tidningsmagnaten William Randolph Hearst, som fortfarande levde – och som försökte stoppa filmen när han förstod hur nära förebilden låg.I andra fall är det mer komplicerat. Tarzan har en förlaga – men inte i form av en verklig person, utan som en litterär föregångare: Mowgli i Djungelboken nämns ofta som en viktig inspirationskälla. Zorro är, åtminstone delvis, knuten till legenderna kring den mexikanske banditen Joaquín Murrieta. Men hur är det med Ben-Hur, Röda nejlikan och d'Artagnan – har de också funnits på riktigt?I detta avsnitt av podden Harrisons dramatiska historia samtalar Dick Harrison, professor i historia vid Lunds universitet, och fackboksförfattaren Katarina Harrison Lindbergh om historia på film: vad är sant och vad är falskt?Bild: Ben-Hur-affischen från 1959, med Charlton Hestons Judah Ben-Hur i centrum och stridsvagnsloppet som filmens dramatiska höjdpunkt.

La saga James Bond, Le Hobbit, Thelma et Louise, Rocky, 2001 L'Odyssée de l'espace, Ben-Hur, La Mort aux trousses… Tous ces films et plus de 4000 autres ont un point commun : leur visuel d'ouverture, un lion animé rugissant, dans un anneau de bandes de films dorées portant le slogan “ars gratia artis”, “l'art est la récompense de l'art” en latin. Ce logo, c'est celui de la société de production hollywoodienne MGM, la Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

Crisis resources are listed at the end of these notes.Historical ContextIn Indiana, public pressure forced an exhumation four months after Hattie's death. Organs shipped to Chicago forchemical analysis revealed large quantities of strychnine. Pettit was arrested and charged with murder. The trial in Crawfordsville drew journalists from across the Midwest. Lew Wallace — the author of *Ben-Hur*, a former Union general, and a member of the military commission that tried the Lincoln assassination conspirators — attendedregularly from the gallery. The jury convicted Pettit and sentenced him to life in prison at hard labor. He died oftuberculosis in 1893, the same day the Indiana Supreme Court granted him a retrial. Elma Whitehead, who funded his defense and fled the state to avoid subpoenas, was never tried.Lilly Duer was captured in Baltimore and tried at the Worcester County courthouse in Snow Hill, Maryland, in May 1879. She was housed not in jail but at the National Hotel across the street — jail being unsuitable for a woman of her standing. The jury convicted her of manslaughter. The sentence: a five-hundred-dollar fine and no prison time. For shooting a woman in the face.The InvestigationsIndiana, 1889: While Hattie Pettit visited a friend in South Bend, her husband moved into the home of Elma Whitehead — the wealthiest woman in the county, daughter of church patron David Meharry. Pettit proposed to Elma, and she accepted. When Hattie returned on July 12, she was poisoned with strychnine on at least three separate occasions over five days. The poison produced violent convulsions — the body arching, the muscles seizing, the face drawn into what the Victorians called the risus sardonicus. Hattie told her doctor she believed she had been poisoned. He did nothing. She died July 17, 1889. The official cause: malaria.Maryland, 1878:On November 5, Lilly Duer walked into the Hearn family home in Pocomoke City with a revolverconcealed in a specially sewn pocket of her dress. She shot Ella Hearn in the face. The bullet passed through Ella's lip, shattered a tooth, and lodged in her skull. Through the blood, Ella spoke: "Don't, Lilly, please don't. I'll marry you." Lilly fled to Baltimore disguised in her brother's suit with her already-short hair cropped shorter.The CrimesHattie Sperry Pettit: was a schoolteacher who married the Reverend William Pettit through church connections inNew York. In 1889 Indiana, teaching was one of the very few professional callings available to educated women, andHattie was practical, self-sufficient, and disciplined. She did not know that the man at the head of her table had oncebeen jailed for theft, had lied his way into the Masonic Brotherhood, and had used those connections to secure his ordination. The minister she married was a fabrication.Ella Hearn was nineteen years old in the autumn of 1878, the daughter of an established merchant family in Pocomoke City, Maryland. Quiet, gentle, trusting — she had graduated from a boarding academy where she shared a room with the woman who would shoot her. She observed what the newspapers called a delicate, unassuming grace. That grace made her extraordinarily vulnerable.The VictimsBoth cases are about desire that could not be spoken aloud and justice systems that decided the people who caused harm deserved more mercy than the people who were harmed.In a river town on Maryland's Eastern Shore, a nineteen-year-old woman is shot in the face by her closest companion— and through the blood and agony speaks five words that have echoed for nearly a century and a half. In the farming country of western Indiana, a minister poisons his wife with strychnine so he can marry the richest woman in the county — and the dying woman figures out exactly what is happening to her. No one lifts a finger.Season 40 of Foul Play begins a year-long journey across all fifty states, pairing two historical crimes per episode —connected by a single thread. Tonight: Maryland, 1878, and Indiana, 1889. Two women trusted the people closest to them. Both paid for that trust with their bodies.Crisis Support ResourcesIf you or someone you know is experiencing intimate partner violence:-US: National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-7233-US: Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741-UK: National Domestic Abuse Helpline: 0808 2000 247-UK: Victim Support: 0808 1689 111Our Sponsors:* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mood and use my code SHANE for a great deal: https://mood.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

We celebrate Easter, once again, with our friend Charlton Heston. This time not just with a movie about Passover, but of the actual crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It's also a precursor to our favourite topic of discussion - The Phantom Menace, as well as an excuse to drop some music from Disney's Robin Hood. Something for everyone.

Easter probably called for a chat about the silent version of either The Ten Commandments or Ben-Hur, but no. I'm talking about a 1932 Ernst Lubitsch rom-com that's excellent with the rom, yet only smile-inducing with the com. Covering Trouble In Paradise also gets Miriam Hopkins, Kay Francis and Herbert Marshall on Have you Ever Seen for the first time. They're all well-served by the infamous Lubitsch Touch. Here a rich, pampered, unworthy fail-daughter (Francis) is set up to be ripped off by clever thieves (Hopkins and Marshall). But they're all likable, the romance(s) work great and you even end up rooting for all the characters, even though each of them could easily seem despicable. Lubitsch: one of the greats in this genre. So cue up Trouble In Paradise in this 730th edition of HYES, where I give you the info about some pre-Code lovin' and stealin' European shennanigans. Jot down some thoughts about classic movies and tell me about them. My email is "haveyoueverseenpodcast@gmail.com", my Twitter is "@moviefiend51" and my Bluesky is "ryan-ellis."

Quelle est la signification du Samedi saint? Le Nouveau Testament nous offre beaucoup d'explications sur le déroulement des événements du Jeudi saint et du Vendredi saint. Cependant, un grand silence entoure le Samedi saint. Que faut-il en comprendre? Dans cet épisode, Joan et Stéphane réfléchissent sur les traditions du Samedi saint et explorent la signification de Jésus qui est descendu aux enfers.

Une conversation profonde sur le silence, le chaos et l'espoir liés à cette journée centrale de la Semaine Sainte. Transcription: Stéphane : Bonjour, bienvenue à Question de croire, un podcast qui s'intéresse à la foi et la spiritualité, une question à la fois. Cette semaine, quelle est la signification du Samedi saint? Joan : Bonjour, Stéphane, bonjour à celles et ceux qui nous écoutent. Stéphane : Bonjour Joan! Jeûner pour le Samedi saint Joan : J'aime bien quand on parle de ces sujets-là; en plus les gens viennent m'en parler après et tout. Ça permet des échanges, des discussions; très cool qu'on ose un peu s'attaquer en quelque sorte à la semaine de la Passion, la Semaine sainte. Quand j'étais un peu dans ce processus de reconversion, de retour à la foi, à des pratiques, j'avais un petit peu envie de me saisir de cette semaine pascale, de comprendre un peu ce que j'étais censée faire en tant que jeune croyante dans la vingtaine. J'en ai parlé avec un pasteur. Il s'appelle Geoffroy Goetz. J'avais dit à Geoffroy : mais qu'est-ce qu'on est censé faire en fait? Et il m'a dit : Ce qui est très bien, ce qui est formidable, c'est de jeûner. C'est bien de jeûner, c'est souvent bien de jeûner le samedi. En plus il le faisait d'une façon assez éthique, il le faisait en lien avec des mouvements qui s'appelaient Comprendre et s'engager en Alsace, des mouvements de l'Église luthérienne, pour réfléchir à la montée de l'antisémitisme, de la xénophobie, des mouvements racistes et politiques en Alsace. Et donc ils avaient un système où ils jeûnaient, ils priaient, puis après ils se racontaient un peu leurs jeûnes et leurs prières et tout ça dans ce contexte de justice sociale, de réflexion sur la montée d'un vote raciste, antisémite, xénophobe. Alors, super! Mais comme je n'avais aucune méthode et que moi j'ai fait ce jeûne sans être entourée, tu vois, juste parce qu'un pasteur m'a dit comme ça, à la sortie du culte, que c'était bien de jeûner, je me suis collé une migraine, mon ami. Oh, j'ai eu mal à la tête, je n'en pouvais plus! Et j'ai un souvenir vraiment horrible de cette journée qui me semblait sans fin, je m'ennuyais comme un rat mort. Je ne mangeais pas, je buvais un peu et je me disais, mais en quoi ça peut bien aider ma vie de foi de faire un truc pareil? Alors qu'entre temps, j'ai fait des journées jeûnes et tout. Je les ai bien préparées. J'ai fait les choses tout à fait différemment. Mais ça, c'était vraiment marrant parce que quand tu débutes, tu veux faire des trucs et si tu n'es pas accompagné, tu peux potentiellement te faire mal ou mal le faire. Visionner Jésus de Nazareth le Samedi saint Stéphane : Tu parles de ta jeunesse. Moi, le souvenir de ma jeunesse, de mon enfance plus précisément, pour le Samedi saint, c'était la journée où les postes de télévision faisaient jouer les méga productions de l'époque, Ben-Hur et Jésus Nazareth, le film de Franco Zeffirelli, la version de 6 heures. Et, pour une espèce de raison, presque toutes les années, j'écoutais ce film. Mais j'étais scotché à la télé pendant 6 heures non-stop. Je connaissais le film. Je le connaissais par cœur et je connaissais l'histoire, bien sûr. Je savais comment c'était pour finir. Mais j'avais cette fascination. C'était comme une espèce de marathon que je m'imposais. Et après on se demande pourquoi je suis devenu pasteur. Ces péplums, ces films de Jésus, le Samedi saint, oui, ça c'est ma jeunesse. La chronologie de la semaine sainte Joan : C'est vrai qu'on dit que le samedi, c'est le jour du grand silence. C'est un jour un peu de vide. D'ailleurs, c'est pratique un jour comme ça dans l'Église, tu es d'accord ? Stéphane : Oui! En tant que pasteur j'ai toujours trouvé que c'était une bonne chose qu'il reste au tombeau le samedi parce qu'avec les offices du Jeudi saint, du Vendredi saint et souvent deux ou trois cultes différents le matin de Pâques, d'avoir un break le samedi c'est toujours bon pour vos pasteurs. Pensez à vos pasteurs le Samedi saint, donnez-leur un peu d'espace et beaucoup d'amour. Joan : On se donne de l'amour quoi qu'il en soit. Mais c'est vrai qu'on se dit: Jésus est un petit peu fatigué, un petit peu épuisé par sa vie. C'est bien qu'il prenne un petit peu de temps pour lui. Et tous les jours en fait je m'interroge sur le sens de ce grand silence. D'ailleurs, en fait, il y a une vraie interrogation biblique. À partir de quand est-ce la fin des enfers et le début de la résurrection? Parce que finalement le samedi, qu'est-ce qu'il faisait Jésus? Il descend aux enfers. Mais à un moment donné il commence aussi sa résurrection. C'est à quelle heure exactement? C'est comment? Il n'y a personne qui a pu m'expliquer vraiment le truc très clairement. Alors, j'ai regardé un petit peu le timing du Triduum pascal. Vous avez vu, il des mots comme ça techniques. Triduum pascal : trois jours. Ça commence le jeudi, vendredi, samedi, déjà ça fait plus que trois, mais c'est l'idée de trois fois 24 heures en gros. Puis ce timing… Si on fait un petit quiz… Toi tu t'en sors comment avec ce timing ? Tu arrives à te souvenir à peu près de ce qu'il faisait, quand, comment? Parce que tous les ans j'aime bien un peu checker. Et quand je checke à chaque fois, je redécouvre un ou l'autre élément. Oui, là, cette heure-ci, il est au Sanhédrin. Pas facile, franchement, d'être au Sanhédrin. Ça n'avait pas l'air très évident de répondre à tout ça. Du coup, j'aime bien aller regarder. Si on part le jeudi, fin de journée, on dirait qu'il prépare le repas pascal à peu près. Ce n'est peut-être pas lui qui le prépare, Jésus, mais on imagine. Il se passe des trucs, des odeurs, des gens. Après, on va dire que la soirée débute vers 18h. Combien de temps il reste à table d'après toi? Une heure? Deux heures? Trois heures? En tout cas, c'est le dernier repas avec les disciples. Bon, après il y a un discours d'adieu. Ensuite, ils s'en vont faire une balade au mont des Oliviers. Là, on calcule un peu les distances. Il en a qui disent qu'il est maximum 23h. Je ne sais pas comment ils savent ça, mais ils le savent. Puis après il y a la prière à Gethsémani. On dit que c'est autour de minuit. Bon, là il est arrêté. Mais après il a une audition très tôt le lendemain matin. Il y en a qui disent une heure du matin, l'arrestation. Il faut dormir un petit peu quand même. Là, ce sont les autorités juives, le Sanhédrin. Après, le texte dit qu'à l'aube il est transféré vers le gouverneur romain. Ils ne dorment pas, tous ces gens-là, c'est un truc de fou. En plus il n'y avait pas d'électricité, rien. Je ne pas comment ils se sont débrouillés pour se promener. Mais là on imagine qu'il est un peu fatigué Jésus, ce n'est pas possible. Mais il n'a pas dormi cette nuit-là, tu vois. Après il est transféré et après re-procès devant Ponce Pilate, il est condamné. Et après c'est dur, il doit porter sa croix. C'est là, c'est à ce moment qu'il porte la croix, on est d'accord. Là souvent on nous dit que ça met une heure, mais ce n'est pas vrai, tu es crevé. Tu t'es fait engueuler par tout le monde, tu ne mets pas une heure à porter la croix, c'est un peu plus. Il va au Golgotha. Là bon crucifixion, obscurité vers midi. On dit qu'il meurt à la neuvième heure, c'est un peu triste, vers trois heures. On le descend de la croix et il est mis au tombeau. Et puis là arrive le samedi. Et là on n'a pas trop d'infos en fait. Le problème c'est qu'avant on a un petit timing, à peu près, mais là on n'a rien du tout. On sait juste qu'il descend aux enfers. Et moi j'aimerais savoir sérieusement comment commence sa résurrection. La part de mystère autour du Samedi saint Stéphane : Moi, personnellement, cette partie qui est absente des Évangiles qu'on a dans nos Nouveaux Testaments, parce qu'il y a d'autres textes apocryphes qui offrent toutes sortes d'interprétations… Joan : C'est l'occasion de dire à nos auditeurs et auditrices si vous ne savez pas ce que c'est les apocryphes, vous nous écrivez. On fait un épisode là-dessus. Stéphane : Ben oui, tout à fait! Cette absence entre la mise au tombeau et ce que je pourrais appeler le premier matin de Pâques, moi, j'aime ça. Je sais que c'est frustrant pour plusieurs, mais moi, ce que j'aime, c'est que ça laisse de la place au mystère. Toutes les tentatives que j'ai entendues, que j'ai lues sur ce qui se passe vraiment, les explications, la quantité d'énergie que ça prend pour revenir à la vie, et tout ça, moi ça me laisse quand même assez de glace parce qu'on parle de quelque chose de plus grand que nous. Si on accepte l'idée d'un retour à la vie, pas d'une ressuscitation, mais d'une sorte de transformation, la résurrection, c'est quelque chose pour moi qui appartient à Dieu. Et si ça appartient à Dieu, moi je suis capable de vivre avec une idée qui est au-delà de la compréhension humaine, au-delà de notre cerveau. C'est peut-être ça qui est difficile a notre époque, dans notre civilisation où tout doit être expliqué, presque minuté, un peu comme tu l'as dis. On veut savoir quand, on parle à qui, on veut un agenda, on veut des choses précises. Mais d'avoir ce moment peu difficile à comprendre, je pense que ça nous ramène dans la foi; ça nous amène à quelque chose de plus spirituel. Qu'est-ce que descendre aux enfers? Joan : C'est tout à fait ça parce que quand on lit en 1 Pierre 3, 19 : descendre aux enfers. Ok. Jésus descend aux enfers. Moi ça me renvoie un peu à nos petits enfers. C'est une occasion de réfléchir à ce que sont nos petits enfers. Moi je vois très bien. Ces dernières années, j'ai changé plusieurs fois de poste. J'ai changé de pays. Il y a eu des tensions un peu à droite à gauche. Je vois très bien c'est quoi les petits enfers. Finalement, c'est l'occasion de réfléchir aussi à ce que les humains et les humaines se font subir ou font subir aux autres. C'est aussi l'occasion de réfléchir à qu'est-ce que ma vie a comme impact, positif, négatif. C'est quoi l'enfer? Comment on y entre d'abord et comment est-ce qu'on en sort? L'enfer des malentendus, l'enfer des addictions, l'enfer des mauvaises habitudes, l'enfer des pensées négatives sur nous-mêmes, de l'auto-accusation aussi. C'est quoi tout ça? C'est quoi l'enfer aussi dans la vie de Jésus parce que finalement, sur son chemin de croix, il se fait renier par Pierre, par exemple. Il se fait dénoncer un petit peu avant par Judas. C'était quoi l'enfer sur terre? Cette expression d'ailleurs, veut dire quoi enfer sur terre? Ça veut dire quoi l'enfer est pavé de bonnes intentions? On peut réfléchir à ces expressions en lien avec l'enfer. En français, on dit aussi c'est d'enfer pour dire c'est génial. Pourquoi on dit ça? Qu'est-ce que ça veut dire? Ouais, dans un sens c'est vrai, on ne sait pas exactement ce qui s'est passé. Qu'est-ce qu'ils font ces disciples pendant ce temps aussi? Ceux qui sont pris de culpabilité, qu'est-ce qu'ils font? Ceux qui sont pris d'espérance peut-être aussi. Puis, la mère de Jésus, elle fait quoi Marie? Il est passé où son fils? Il est mort? Il est là? J'aime méditer à tous ces aspects-là en fait. Jésus descend aux enfers le Samedi saint pour délivrer toutes les âmes Stéphane : Ayant grandi Catholique romain, durant la messe, on disait le Symbole des Apôtres, sans trop y penser : il a souffert sur Ponce Pilate, il a été crucifié, est mort, il a été enseveli et est descendu aux enfers. Moi, on ne m'avait pas enseigné pourquoi il y va. Je me demandais, c'est le fils de Dieu, pourquoi il faut qu'il se ramasse aux enfers? Et ce n'est que beaucoup plus tard, lorsque j'ai lu un texte de mon théologien préféré, John Dominic Crossan, il retourne aux enfers pour libérer les âmes qui ont été enfermées là depuis le début. Il y a cette notion qu'on a perdue en Occident et qui semble être demeurée dans les traditions orientales, que la résurrection n'est pas un concept individuel. Ce n'est pas seulement Jésus qui est ressuscité. Mais à travers cette mort, cette descente aux enfers, Jésus ouvre la porte de l'enfer et c'est tous les gens qui reviennent dans un état de libération, dans un état de sanctification. Je trouve intéressant que, à travers cette préparation vers la résurrection, il y ait cette partie où on se souvient de ceux et celles qui nous ont précédés, de ceux et celles qui ont eu une bonne vie, de ceux et celles qui ont peut-être eu une moins bonne vie et quelque part, Jésus ouvre la porte pour tout le monde. Tous et toutes sont invités à sortir de cet enfer-là pour rejoindre Dieu. Dans un contexte où on se prépare à Pâques, moi je trouve ça assez intéressant de penser à ça, à ce pas juste pour Jésus, pas juste pour les bonnes personnes. C'est un peu pour tout le monde. Ce n'est pas à nous d'ouvrir ou fermer la porte. Théologiquement, on comprend que c'est Jésus qui ouvre cette porte. Ce n'est pas à moi de décider qui peut passer par cette porte ou pas. Ça me fait réfléchir beaucoup. Les traditions du Samedi saint Joan : Pour cet épisode, je me suis un peu renseignée sur les traditions chrétiennes du Samedi saint. Toi, tu viens d'un arrière-plan Catholique. Il a quand même deux ou trois trucs intéressants le samedi. D'abord, c'est une messe sans Eucharistie. On essaye de réduire fortement le volume des messes. On essaye de faire peut-être juste des célébrations de la Parole, des recueillements, des adorations de l'Eucharistie. On enlève aussi les ornements liturgiques, les antépendiums, pour que les choses soient assez dépouillées. Je trouve ça beau, c'est très, très beau. Et puis il y a ces vigiles pascales quand même dans le catholicisme. Je dois dire chapeau quoi, c'est génial ce qui se fait, en tout cas en France par exemple et en Suisse. L'évêque vient aussi baptiser les catéchumènes au cours de la nuit, souvent des grands, des jeunes ou bien des recommençants ou des nouveaux convertis. J'aime bien ces offres-là. Ça commence à me faire un peu envie. J'ai envie de vivre un peu des choses comme ça. L'année dernière, j'ai eu connaissance d'une vigile pascale un peu organisée par des jeunes, comme on dit ici, qui avaient fait une randonnée nocturne, qui avaient dormi ensuite dans l'Église et qui étaient là très tôt au moment de l'office du dimanche matin où généralement il n'y a pas vraiment de jeunes. D'ailleurs, à ce sujet, j'aimerais raconter une anecdote sur ma fille, notre fille Marysol que tu connais. Marysol, quand elle était au catéchisme, j'ai réussi à la baratiner, des fois on arrive à baratiner nos ados, je lui dis, tu dois absolument être là au cimetière à 7h30 pour chanter les chants de la résurrection. On n'était pratiquement que des vieux. À ce moment-là, je n'étais pas si vieille, mais enfin bon, j'étais déjà vieille pour elle. Et je me rappelle qu'il pleuvait. Il pleuvait. Alors, elle a sorti un parapluie, s'est mise dans un coin du cimetière et je me rappelle toujours sa tête baissée comme ça avec son parapluie, pas du tout réveillée, a subir un rituel que sa mère lui avait dit de subir. J'aimerais bien avoir son avis là-dessus, peut-être que ce soit un avis positif, mais ça m'a fait rigoler d'y penser pour cet épisode. Et je me dis, que faire pour rendre ce temps lumineux? Et chanter au cimetière tôt le matin, j'aime bien. Mais ce que j'aime surtout, c'est de prendre un gros petit déjeuner, tu vois. On se rassemble, catholiques, protestants, évangéliques, on prend le petit déj. Alors, je me dis quel sens peut-on mettre en fait dans ce samedi, cette vigile du côté protestant. On n'en met pas souvent. Du côté orthodoxe, je crois qu'il se passe pas mal de choses aussi, mais bon ce n'est jamais aux mêmes dates que nous. Toi, mets-tu un peu de sens d'Église, rituel, liturgique sur ce samedi? As-tu des souvenirs de quand tu étais petit? Le Samedi saint est la continuation du jeudi et du vendredi Stéphane : Peu quand j'étais plus petit, mais lorsque j'étais en paroisse, j'essayais de construire un arc narratif, si je peux utiliser ce genre d'expression. Je trouve qu'on a tendance à découper les offices. Jeudi saint… vendredi… dimanche… peut-être de quoi samedi… Quand j'étais en paroisse, mon office du Jeudi saint ne se terminait pas. Il n'y avait pas la bénédiction, il n'y avait pas l'envoi. On m'a demandé, mais pourquoi? Parce que ce n'est pas la fin de l'histoire. L'histoire continue vendredi et vendredi ce n'est pas la fin de l'histoire. L'histoire se continue. Et cela a un sens lorsqu'on regarde le tout. Donc le samedi en tant que tel, peut-être qu'il a moins de sens. Mais lorsqu'on regarde un peu comme tu l'as fait et comme plusieurs le font, c'est la continuation du jeudi, du vendredi, et là, on est dans le samedi pour déboucher sur un dimanche. Là, on travaille sur quelque chose de plus large. Je peux comprendre que ce n'est pas tout monde qui a l'énergie. Ce n'est pas toutes les paroisses qui ont les ressources pour faire tous ces offices. Mais je pense qu'on a besoin de relier ces histoires. Il y a un lien entre le jeudi saint et le vendredi. On coupe trop souvent. Je me souviens d'un office du vendredi saint, on terminait l'office avec la mise au tombeau et j'offrais une réflexion finale sur le chaos, parce que le temps au tombeau c'était un peu le chaos. Tout allait bien dans la vie de Jésus. Bon, ce n'était pas facile, mais quand même, ça suivait son cours. Il avait des disciples. En quelques heures, il se fait arrêter. Le procès. Il se fait exécuter. Les disciples ne devaient avoir aucune idée de ce qui venait de se passer. Tout semblait s'écrouler. Je pense que c'est quelque chose de très parlant parce que je suis convaincu que tous ceux et celles qui nous écoute ont des moments comme ça dans leurs vies. Ça va et il y a comme une succession d'événements, il y a des ruptures, il y a des chamboulements. On a l'impression que tout s'écroule. Tout ce qu'on avait construit, tous nos rêves, tout s'écroule. Il y a peut-être quelque chose de l'autre côté, mais on n'est pas sûrs. On n'est pas certains. Un peu comme la pandémie. Au début, on était complètement dépourvus. Ce virus, on n'avait aucune idée. On avait peur. Tout le monde était confiné. Il y avait des gens qui mourraient. On se disait, mais avec toutes nos connaissances, notre technologie, toute notre science, on est impuissants. Qu'est-ce qu'on fait avec tout ça? Moi, c'est ça que je retiens beaucoup du Samedi saint, ce chaos-là. Est-ce que le chaos va se réorganiser? Est-ce que nos vies vont se réorganiser? Est-ce que notre foi va se réorganiser? Une année j'avais lancé: et si cette année, la résurrection n'avait pas lieu? Oui, elle a eu lieu, mais c'est parce que l'on connaît la fin de l'histoire. Mais j'essaye de me mettre dans les souliers de ces pauvres disciples-là, de dire, qu'est-ce qui va se passer? Cette peur, cet espoir, qu'est-ce qu'on fait avec tout ça? Je crois qu'il y a quelque chose qui peut nous parler dans nos vies. Conclusion Joan : Oui, c'est ça en fait. C'est ce samedi qui prend sa place, comme tu dis, dans un arc narratif, dans un ensemble plus complet. Nos vies qui ressemblent beaucoup à tout plein d'aspects parce que c'est ça, c'est un humain, Jésus, avec des réussites, des déceptions, des alliances fortes, et des trahisons. Et puis peut-être des fois aussi ce grand ce grand moment, ce grand besoin de silence, de descendre un peu au fond de nous-mêmes pour ensuite se retrouver et puis laisser exploser un peu de joie. Et finalement, moi j'aimerais bien savoir quelles sont les pratiques de nos auditrices, auditeurs sur le Samedi saint. Qu'est-ce que vous faites? Comment vous le faites? Est-ce que vous voulez venir nous en parler une fois? Est-ce que vous voulez venir rejoindre le groupe WhatsApp pour en parler? On a un groupe WhatsApp où on cause un petit peu de ces choses-là. Stéphane : Merci, Joan, pour cette conversation. Merci aux gens qui sont à l'écoute. Oui, le groupe WhatsApp est dans la description en bas de l'épisode. Si vous n'êtes pas sûr, envoyez-nous un courriel, on peut vous intégrer. J'espère que la semaine pascale se déroule bien et continuera à bien se dérouler pour vous.

La colaboradora de Cuerpos especiales se ha dejado seducir por esta serie a la que ve claros paralelismos con Ben-Hur. Los mismos chicos guapos, la misma rivalidad desmedida y la misma tensión sexual. La diferencia es que en la película de 1959 se queda en el aire y en la serie actual se revuelve... ¡y muchas veces!

In this episode, Alice interviews Professor Konstantinos Nikoloutsos, based at Saint Joseph's University in Philadelphia, and Professor Lee Brice, from Western Illinois University. Konstantinos' research focuses on the afterlife of ancient Greece and Rome in the Western world, and several of his publications examine the representation of ancient history on stage and screen. Lee is a military historian, focusing especially on military unrest and indiscipline during the time of Alexander the Great and in the early Roman empire. He contributed a reflective conclusion to a collection of essays which Konstantinos masterminded, published in 2023 as Brill's Companion to ancient Greek and Roman Warfare on Film. As Konstantinos puts it, ‘Celluloid antiquity is saturated with images of combat'. In our discussion, we dig deep into how ancient war and peacemaking have been depicted in film from the 1960s to the present day. We track changes across time in the cinematic representation of ancient violence and heroism, in relation to developments in film history and contemporary socio-political contexts. Films such as Ben-Hur, Spartacus, Troy, 300, Gladiator, and Hercules are all unpicked; and along the way we discuss the ways in which they construct masculinity, humanise action heroes, stigmatise Others, and normalise war as a pathway to 'greatness'. We consider how political and military events have influenced the representation of ancient warfare on the one hand, and how films depicting ancient warfare have become commentaries on contemporary contexts on the other. Konstantinos and Lee also discuss the future of 'sword-and-sandel' movies, including the role that AI may increasingly play, and the real-world impacts of evolving trends in cinematic depictions of ancient warfare.We hope you enjoy the episode.

Tim Shearcroft, CEO and Co-Founder of BP Silver Corp. (TSXV: BPAG), joins me for a review of the results from the first two drill holes of its initial eleven-hole Phase I drill program at the Cosuño Silver Project, located in the prolific Bolivian silver belt. Additionally, the Company is working on finalizing the title at their Titiri Project, located in a major under-explored silver belt with Tier 1 discovery potential. The Phase I drill program tested four initial targets in the southern portion of Cosuño, selected as initial targets because they were outcropping, in an area that is covered by surficial overburden. Drill Holes CO-0001 and CO-0002 were drilled in the Jalsuri target, a northwest-southeast trending ridge formed by a prominent mineralized structure. These results validated that the lithocap at Cosuño is mineralized with precious metals and base metals. CO-0001 intercepted 62 meters of 56.96 silver equivalent (AgEq), including 29 meters of 80 AgEq, and 4 meters of 150 AgEq CO-0002 intercepted 33 meters of 62.86 silver equivalent (AgEq), including 3 meters of 124.95 AgEq The remaining 9 holes from Phase I will have more holes returned from the Jalsuri, Benhur, Pocalleta, and Pocañita Chica target areas. We also discussed the potential for future drilling at the other portion of Jalsuri, and the Pocañita Grande targets. We discuss the prospectivity of Bolivia for mineral exploration and exploitation, the handful of companies that have made solid advancements on their projects in country, and how the political administration has recently changed to become more amenable to foreign business investment and mineral extraction. Additionally, their team is working with the government to finalize obtaining the title to begin exploration on their Titiri Project. Titiri was staked over a large land concession containing outcropping mineralization historically explored by ASARCO. This Project contains a 2.5km-long silver-lead-zinc zone, with excellent historical trench results, that was never drilled. Titiri is a very High Priority structural setting at the intersection of several major crustal-scale faults, along which multiple deposits occur. There is a MOU in place with local communities, and they'd like to get on the ground for exploration in mid-2026.

Fritz Lang's Metropolis In 1927 Cinema was still in its relative infancy. Nearly eleven years earlier D.W. Griffith had established the "grammar of cinema" with his epic masterpiece, The Birth of a Nation. The subsequent decade would showcase spectacles (Ben-Hur, Intolerance), comedies (The Gold Rush, The General), and dramatic classics (Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans, The Last Laugh). Cinematic Science Fiction would be attempted as early as 1902 with Melie's A Voyage to the Moon, however it would take nearly a quarter of a century for Sci-Fi to reveal its technical brilliance and possibilities with 1927s Fritz Lang masterpiece Metropolis. While an incredibly innovative, beautiful, and groundbreaking film, Lang's narrative (from a treatment and screenplay by his wife and artistic partner, Thea von Harbou), continues - or is the beginning - of the lazy and apologetic "White Savior" cinematic trope that has continued from Lawrence of Arabia thru Dances with Wolves, and most recently, Avatar and Dune. This week Mr. Chavez & I go back to the argument that we have made before and will continue to make regarding this insulting and problemtic cinematic trope. Each generation seems to want to tell its own version of this story without recognizing the inherent hypocrisy of a society and culture victimized by the elite while simultaneously needing to be saved by a blonde-haired, blue-eyed messiah (in this case a billionaire suddenly aware of his "mediator destiny" and responsibility to his "brothers"). Yes, we recognize the technical and production brilliance of this film, while at the same time being unable to ignore (or excuse) the obvious and insulting simplicity of its narrative. It is possible to simultaneoulsy admire and take issue with a work of art. Take a listen and ask yourself if you agree. Let us know what you think.

I told you I'd make Dustin watch this - and boy did it pay off! I know it's probably a bad podcasting idea to cover a movie no one saw and that the director pulled from all distribution channels... HOWEVER I just saw you can stream MEGALOPOLIS on Apple TV+ right now! So get a free trial and check it out because you will want at least some context for this episode. We dig into all the characters played by spectacular actors and how badly wasted Dustin Hoffman was. We try to explain the fable and allegory as best it makes sense. And we struggle to fathom how a movie about America has zero grasp of what it is or was (or really Rome, for that matter). There are interesting things that worked, and more that should work on paper, so it's complicated and definitely an interesting discussion. Lots to dig into, and we want to hear your takes as well. Leave a voicemail or shoot us a text: +1(724)4-BONERZBefore that, we need to spin for another random movie because we can't find one of the 10 picked last episode. Then Dustin gives spoiler-free first impressions of The Naked Gun (2025), The Thursday Murder Club, and revisiting Ben Hur. Jake shares thoughts after seeing Together, Primitive War, and Unknown Number: The High School Catfish.----Special thank you to Alan Hlavacek and Travis Mason from Attack on Venus for the sick theme music!

This is a free sample from our conversation on William Wyler's Ben-Hur (1959), the epic that helped shape George Lucas's cinematic imagination and paved the way for Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. We talk about Ben-Hur's blend of myth, spectacle, and spirituality, how its structure mirrors the Skywalker saga, and why Judah Ben-Hur walks so Anakin Skywalker can...get his legs cut off.

Jurandir Filho, Thiago Siqueira, Fernanda Schmölz e Gnu batem um papo sobre algumas cenas e franquias que mudaram o cinema de ação. Esse tipo de filme sempre teve um papel fundamental na indústria cinematográfica. Desde os primeiros filmes de aventura com perseguições em carroças e duelos de espadas, até os blockbusters modernos recheados de efeitos especiais e acrobacias insanas, o gênero sempre cativou o público por sua adrenalina, ritmo acelerado e personagens carismáticos. Mais do que entretenimento puro, o cinema de ação tem sido palco de inovações técnicas, mudanças narrativas e marcos culturais que redefiniram o que o público espera ver na tela grande.Ao longo das décadas, algumas cenas de ação se tornaram não apenas memoráveis, mas também transformadoras para a linguagem do cinema. Elas elevaram o padrão da indústria e influenciaram toda uma geração de cineastas. Falamos sobre filmes como "Ben-Hur", "Operação França", "Rambo", "Missão Impossível", "O Exterminador do Futuro", "Matrix", "Mad Max", "Indiana Jones", "Velozes e Furiosos", "John Wick" e muito mais.|| ASSINE O SALA VIP DO RAPADURACAST- Um podcast EXCLUSIVO do RapaduraCast toda semana! http://patreon.com/rapaduracast
