Richardson, starring Kathryn Beaumont, Ed Wynn, Richard Hadyn, Sterling Holloway, and Bill Thompson.Plot Summary: Bored with her lessons, young Alice follows a fretful White Rabbit down a hole into Wonderland, a topsy-turvy world where she shrinks, grows, and meets a cast of eccentrics: a riddling Caterpillar, a grinning Cheshire Cat, and the tea-mad Hatter and March Hare. Her quest to find a way home leads to the court of the fearsome Queen of Hearts, whose short temper and cry of "Off with her head!" threaten Alice at every turn. After a chaotic trial, Alice finally stands up for herself — and wakes up, realizing it was all her own dream.Guests:Christine Duncan (20x Club Member)Wife of Dana, Mother of Tom21x guestKieran B (15x Club Member)Host and Creator of the Best Picture Cast; @bestpicturecast on X, IG, Letterboxd - BPC, Personal Letterboxd19x Previous GuestChapters:00:12 Introduction, Cast, and Background for Alice in Wonderland03:05 Welcome Back, Christine and Kieran!09:54 Relationship(s) with Alice in Wonderland16:21 How Did Disney Animation Shape Your View of the Genre?25:11 Faithful Adaptation from Lewis Carroll's Novel?28:40 Plot Summary for Alice in Wonderland29:31 What is Alice in Wonderland About?34:19 Did You Know?38:02 First Break38:36 What's Happening with Christine and Kieran?46:30 Best Performance(s)54:20 Best Scene(s)01:01:16 Second Break01:01:55 In Memoriam01:05:39 Best Line(s)01:08:37 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy01:18:05 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance01:24:13 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:33:24 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:39:55 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:44:43 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:47:09 Remaining Questions for Alice in Wonderland01:49:34 Thank You to Christine and Kieran / Final Thoughts02:02:16 CreditsYou can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky, Threads, YouTube, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast).For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/alice-in-wonderland-1951-ft-christine-duncan-and-kieran-bFor the entire rankings list so far, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/greatest-movie-of-all-time-listKeywords:Alice in Wonderland, Disney, animated, classics, film review, movie analysis, Lewis Carroll, adaptation, animated film, Tim Burton, Alice, Johnny Depp, film discussion, movie review Alice in Wonderland, Disney animated, animation, film, movie, Disney legacy, cult classics, film impact, movie rewatchability, legacy, impact, significance, novelty, rewatch, Cheshire Cat, Queen of Hearts, Mad Hatter, March Hare, down the rabbit holeRonny Duncan Studios

Dana and Tom discuss Ace in the Hole (1951) for its 75th anniversary: written and directed by Billy Wilder with Lesser Samuels and Walter Newman, cinematography by Charles Lang, music by Hugo Friedhofer, editing by Doane Harrison and Arthur P. Schmidt, starring Kirk Douglas, Jan Sterling, and Porter Hall.Plot Summary: Meet Chuck Tatum — a fast-talking, down-on-his-luck newspaper reporter played by Kirk Douglas. After burning bridges at every big-city paper in the country, he ends up stranded in Albuquerque, New Mexico, working for a small-town daily and waiting for his big break.Then one day, fate drops a story right in his lap. A local man named Leo Minosa gets trapped inside a collapsed mine shaft. Instead of calling for a quick rescue, Tatum sees an opportunity. He cuts a deal with a corrupt sheriff, engineers a longer — and far more dangerous — rescue operation, and turns the whole ordeal into a national media spectacle. Crowds pour in. Carnival rides go up. The story is everywhere.But the longer the rescue drags on, the worse Leo's condition becomes. And Tatum, who started this as pure ambition, begins to realize what he's actually done.Chapters:00:00 Introduction, Cast, and Background for Ace in the Hole02:37 Our Missing Guest03:34 Initial Reactions to Ace in the Hole08:42 Billy Wilder's Most Cynical Film?11:34 Kirk Douglas' Best Performance?14:32 Plot Summary for Ace in the Hole15:46 What is Ace in the Hole About?21:57 Did You Know?24:27 First Break25:04 GMOAT Hall of Fame - June 202633:51 Best Performance(s)38:42 Best Scene(s)43:11 Second Break43:49 In Memoriam46:25 Best Lines47:50 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy50:12 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance53:28 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty56:05 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:00:07 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:01:39 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:03:33 Remaining Questions for Ace in the Hole01:05:01 Final Thoughts01:08:54 CreditsYou can also find this episode in full video on YouTube.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky, Threads, YouTube, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast).For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/ace-in-the-hole-1951For the entire rankings list so far, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/greatest-movie-of-all-time-listKeywords:Billy Wilder, Ace in the Hole, media critique, film analysis, media sensationalism, film legacy, film impact, classic cinema, media ethics, film discussion, Kirk Douglas, Hugo Friedhofer, journalism, media, circusRonny Duncan Studios

Beyond the Gun – Creative Partnerships There's a distinct difference between being cast as an actor in a theatre production and working as a creative collaborator and developing your own work. This session examines how actors can step into producing and move into the developmental life of a project—contributing ideas, shaping the script, and influencing the work as it develops. Actors such as Ngoc Phan, Nicholas Brown, Julia Robertson, Amy Ingram, and Cameron Hurry have expanded their work into producing, writing and directing. This conversation explores how actors can evolve their practice, build a reputation for meaningful creative input, and become initiators and collaborators whose contributions extend beyond performance into the heart of the work itself. Amy is a multi-award-winning actor and theatre-maker based in Brisbane, later this year she will appear in the return season of Pride And Prejudice at QTC and the World Premiere of Suzie Miller's Strong Is The New Pretty touring Nationally. Ngọc is an award-winning actor, director and playwright. Her diverse theatre work includes Vietgone, Boy Swallows Universe and Good Grief (Queensland Theatre), Laurinda (MT), Love Stories (Brisbane Festival/QPAC), Horizon (Playlab Theatre), Medea (Shock Therapy Productions), We're All Gonna Die, Away, A Streetcar Named Desire and Stunt Double (The Farm). Julia Robertson is a multidisciplinary theatre maker, director and actor living and working on Gadigal land. She is the Artistic Director of the award-winning devising group Little Eggs Collective, a recipient of the Ensemble Theatre's Sandra Bates Award for Directing, and a Young Artists Program finalist with Opera Australia. Julia was recently nominated for Best Direction of a Musical at the Sydney Theatre Awards for The Producers (Hayes Theatre Co. / Riverside Parramatta). In 2026, Julia will direct the premiere production of STELLA, The Musical in Melbourne, as well as The Addams Family for Hayes Theatre Co. She will also work as Movement Director on 84 Charing Cross Road for the Ensemble Theatre, and as Assistant Director on Suzie Miller's new work Strong Is the New Pretty for Sydney Theatre Company, Queensland Theatre and Brisbane Festival. Nicholas Brown is a NIDA graduate who has forged an impressive international career across film, television and theatre as an actor, writer, singer, songwriter and leading man with major roles in Bollywood films, Australian drama and as a much-loved ABC Play School presenter. He plays a lead role in upcoming Alex Proyas science fiction musical film R.U.R. As a playwright, Nicholas won the prestigious Nick Enright Prize for Playwriting in the 2024 NSW Premier's Literary Awards for his play Sex Magick which was performed in the 2023 Griffin Theatre season. It was also nominated for a 2025 AWGIE and a 2024 Sydney Theatre Award. Cameron Hurry is a Brisbane based actor and writer. He completed his actor training at the University of Southern Queensland.

Dana and Tom with 5x Club Member, Jesse Sertle (Fellow group member of CineMadison) discuss The Rock (1996) for its 30th anniversary: directed by Michael Bay, written by David Weisberg, Douglas S. Cook, and Mark Rosner, cinematography by John Schwartzman, editing by Richard Francis-Bruce, music by Nick Glennie-Smith and Hans Zimmer, starring Sean Connery, Ed Harris, and Nicolas Cage.Plot Summary: In The Rock, a rogue U.S. general (Ed Harris) seizes Alcatraz Island and threatens San Francisco with stolen chemical weapons, forcing an unlikely duo—a bookish FBI chemist (Nicolas Cage) and a vanished‑from‑the‑grid ex‑spy (Sean Connery) —into the island's fog‑shrouded fortress. As they infiltrate the abandoned prison's tunnels and rusted battlements, the mission becomes a tense clash of wills and philosophies, where loyalty, guilt, and the weight of past secrets press in as heavily as the Pacific mist. The Rock turns into a high‑stakes pressure cooker, inviting you into a world where every corridor hums with danger and every choice feels like it could tip the balance.Guest:Jesse Sertle (5x Club Member)Fellow group member of CineMadisonPreviously on Rounders (1998), Easy Rider (1969), and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019), Star Wars (1977)@jsertle on IGChapters:00:00 Introduction, Cast, and Background for The Rock03:00 Welcome Back, Jesse Sertle06:04 Tom's Difficulty with Michael Bay08:55 Relationship(s) with The Rock14:07 Michael Bay19:28 Nicolas Cage23:24 Sean Connery25:23 How to Enjoy Any Michael Bay Movie26:25 Plot Summary for The Rock27:23 What is The Rock About?28:41 Did You Know?32:39 First Break33:22 What's Happening with Jesse Sertle?34:03 Best Performance(s)39:51 Best Scene(s)47:22 Second Break48:14 Best/Funniest Lines51:24 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy57:09 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance01:01:45 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:05:02 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:11:53 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:16:10 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:17:49 Remaining Questions for The Rock01:20:19 Thank You to Jesse and Remaining Thoughts01:23:33 CreditsYou can also find this episode in full video on YouTube.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky, Threads, YouTube, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast).For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/the-rock-1996-ft-jesse-sertleFor the entire rankings list so far, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/greatest-movie-of-all-time-listKeywords:The Rock, Michael Bay, Nicolas Cage, Sean Connery, Ed Harris, 90s action movies, film critique, behind the scenes, movie analysis, film analysis, movie review, 90s cinema, rewatchability, film legacyRonny Duncan Studios

In this episode we discuss motorcycle tires and tell you the best one, in our opinion.  We have had the opportunity to test many.  Lurch and I talk about the Harley-Davidson OEM Dunlop, Michelin Commander III, American Eagle (now referred to as AE2), and Metzeler CruiseTec (current OEM tire for Indian Motorcycle).  Which one do we think is the best?  Listen and find out.   SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE The Metzeler CruiseTec motorcycle tire delivers a strong balance of grip, stability, and long-distance comfort for riders who want modern performance from a cruiser or touring tire. Designed for heavyweight V-twin motorcycles, the CruiseTec stands out with impressive wet-weather traction and confident cornering characteristics that many riders don't typically expect from a cruiser-focused tire. The dual-compound rear construction helps provide solid mileage while still maintaining excellent edge grip, making the tire feel planted during aggressive riding and smooth during highway touring. Riders often report noticeably improved handling response compared to older-generation cruiser tires, especially on bikes like Harley-Davidson touring models and Indian motorcycles. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Another major strength of the CruiseTec is ride quality and predictability. The tire warms up quickly, tracks well through sweeping turns, and remains stable at freeway speeds even when carrying luggage or a passenger. Road feedback is confidence inspiring without feeling harsh, and the tread pattern does an effective job evacuating water in rainy conditions. While some riders may find that ultra-high-mileage touring tires last slightly longer, the CruiseTec generally earns praise for prioritizing performance and rider confidence without sacrificing durability. For motorcycle enthusiasts who want a tire that combines sporty handling with touring comfort, the Metzeler CruiseTec is widely considered one of the top choices in the V-twin tire category.

Flippen.Plot Summary: The Killing is a tense crime thriller about a carefully planned racetrack robbery that slowly falls apart because of bad luck, greed, and human mistakes. Sterling Hayden plays Johnny Clay, a smart criminal who gathers a group of men to help him steal money from a horse racing track. Each member of the team has a specific job, and the plan seems nearly perfect. As the robbery moves forward, Kubrick shows the events from different points of view, building suspense as the audience sees how every detail connects.

Robert Duvall wrote it, directed it, and delivered his career-best performance in it. The Apostle is a $5 million Southern Gothic character study about a charismatic Pentecostal preacher who murders a man with a baseball bat at his own children's Little League game, flees to small-town Louisiana, and builds an entirely new congregation from scratch. He is a wife-beater, a womanizer, a killer, and a true believer. There is no rug pull. Richard Lewis, MonteCristo, and Thorin break down why this is the most honest film about faith Hollywood has ever made. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dana and Tom with 5x Club Member, VP Morris (Award-winning thriller and horror writer and podcaster), discuss Gilda (1946) for its 80th anniversary: directed by Charles Vidor, written by Marion Parsonnet and Ben Hecht, cinematography by Rudolph Mate, music by M. W. Stoloff and Marlin Skiles, editing by Charles Nelson, starring Glenn Ford, Rita Hayworth, and George Macready.Plot Summary: In the shadowy world of postwar Buenos Aires, a cynical gambler named Johnny Farrell (Glenn Ford) rises to become the right‑hand man of a powerful casino owner—only to have his world upended when his boss returns from abroad with a new wife: Gilda (Rita Hayworth), the woman Johnny once loved and lost. What follows is a volatile triangle of desire, jealousy, and deception, where every smile hides a threat and every gesture feels like a dare. As Johnny and Gilda wage a private war under the watchful eye of a dangerous man, the film turns into a noir about obsession, control, and the impossibility of burying the past.Guest:VP MorrisAward-winning thriller and horror writer and podcaster;vpmorris.com, @teawriterepeat on IG and X, The Dead Letters Podcast;Previously on Scream (1996), The Shining (1980), Rear Window (1954), and American Psycho (2000)Chapters:00:00 Introduction, Cast, and Background for Gilda03:37 Welcome Back, VP Morris!04:44 Why Gilda?07:45 Rita Hayworth's Performance in Gilda13:27 What Kind of Character is Gilda?19:53 Plot Summary for Gilda20:47 What is Gilda About?28:48 Did You Know?33:17 First Break34:57 What's Happening with VP Morris?36:25 Best Performance(s)50:46 Best Scene(s)01:00:33 Second Break01:01:10 Best/Funniest Lines01:03:09 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy01:09:03 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance01:14:40 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:23:38 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:28:49 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:32:03 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:33:44 Remaining Questions for Gilda01:42:28 Thank You to VP01:43:16 CreditsYou can also find this episode in full video on YouTube.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky, Threads, YouTube, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast).For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/gilda-1946-ft-vp-morrisFor the entire rankings list so far, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/greatest-movie-of-all-time-listKeywords:Gilda, Rita Hayworth, film noir, classic movies, Hollywood history, cinematic legacy, classic, noir, Glenn Ford, mystery, thriller, podcast, movie, Shawshank, redRonny Duncan Studios

Dana and Tom with returning guest, Heather Stewart (The Revisionist Almanac's Senior European Correspondent), discuss Memento (2001) - celebrating its 25th Anniversary: written and directed by Christopher Nolan, cinematography by Wally Pfister, music by David Julyan, editing by Dody Dom, starring Guy Pearce, Carrie-Anne Moss, and Joe Pantoliano.Plot Summary: Leonard Shelby (Guy Pearce) is a man driven by a single, desperate purpose: to find and kill the man who raped and murdered his wife. However, his quest is complicated by a rare, untreatable form of anterograde amnesia—a result of the same attack—which leaves him unable to store new memories for more than a few minutes. To navigate a world that constantly resets, Leonard relies on an intricate system of Polaroid photos, handwritten notes, and permanent tattoos etched across his body to track his progress and identify his allies and enemies. As the film unfolds in a unique, non-linear structure that mirrors Leonard's own disorientation, he must piece together the fragmented truth of his past while questioning the reliability of his own "facts" and the motives of those claiming to help him.Guest:Heather StewartThe Revisionist Almanac's Senior European Correspondent@heatherjstewart on IG, X, LetterboxdPreviously on Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979), Requiem for a Dream (2000), Little Miss Sunshine (2006)Chapters:00:00 Introduction, Cast, and Background for Memento04:45 Welcome Back, Heather Stewart05:33 Heather's Reverence for Chris Nolan06:40 Relationship(s) with Memento16:32 Is Memento the Skeleton Key of Nolan Films?21:34 Where Does Memento Rank Among Christopher Nolan Films?29:35 Plot Summary for Memento30:48 What is Memento About?39:12 Did You Know?45:21 What's Happening with Heather Stewart?48:46 Best Performance(s)01:02:36 Best Scene(s)01:08:53 Second Break01:10:04 Best/Funniest Lines01:12:59 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy01:20:52 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance01:28:06 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:30:58 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:36:49 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:42:59 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:45:31 Remaining Questions for Memento01:57:26 Thank You to Heather and Remaining Thoughts02:00:40 CreditsYou can also find this episode in full video on YouTube.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky, Threads, YouTube, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast).For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/memento-2001-ft-heather-stewartFor the entire rankings list so far, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/greatest-movie-of-all-time-listKeywords:Memento, Christopher Nolan, film analysis, memory, storytelling, film history, Nolan's films, psychological thriller, film critique, psychological thriller, narrative structure, film legacy, impact, rewatchability, film theory, movie discussionRonny Duncan Studios

Welcome back for another great filmmaker chat! Robb Padgett brought his feature film “Merry Heistmas” to the Sherman Oaks Film Festival in 2025 and brought home the Grand Jury Awards for Best Feature Film- Comedy and Best Performance by a Cast in a Feature Film. Robb's film is an audience favorite and poor Robb has had to listen to me share not once but twice that, personally, I just do not like Christmas and that for me to thoroughly enjoy a film that features not just a Christmas-time setting but actual Christmas caroling is a gigantic accomplishment. It was a ton of fun to meet Robb at Sherman Oaks Film Festival and even more fun to have him on the podcast.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                You can watch “Merry Heistmas” right now and I recommend using Just Watch to watch it.
