Natalie Wood was one of the most loved child stars of the silver screen in the mid-20th century, and the rare celebrity who was able to transition gracefully into grown-up roles all while maintaining an air of dignity and grace. She acted alongside Orson Welles, James Dean, Warren Beatty, and Bette Davis, and many of her roles remain iconic decades later. But beneath her unprecedented professional success was a life unseen by the public – a life full of fears, paranoias, pills, gypsy curses, and secrets. And when she drowned at the age of 43, more secrets would come floating to the surface. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including sexual assault and suicide.

La sombra de la guerra de Secesión y la fiebre amarilla se ciernen sobre los personajes de “Jezabel”, el melodrama de William Wyler precedente de la superproducción de la MGM “Lo que el viento se llevó”. Aquí tenemos a Julie (Bette Davis), una jovencita del sur, caprichosa y manipuladora, tanto como Escarlata O¨Hara. En torno a Bette Davis gravitan todos los personajes y objetos del film, los esclavos negros de igual forma parecen vivir felices en su situación, con niños graciosos y el tío Cato, el mayordomo que brinda por el matrimonio del caballero sureño en la cocina para que nadie le vea. Julie, la Davis, resplandece con su vestido rojo en un vals de mujeres de blanco, una mujer adelantada a su época, vanidosa y terca, expresa la ira, la emoción, la pasión y la depresión en esos primeros planos que su ferviente admirador Wyler le dedica. Preston -Henry Fonda- la quiere, aunque es de la misma tierra de pantanos y tradiciones, simboliza los valores de la modernidad, los aires que soplan desde el norte y así se enfrenta en las reuniones con los inmovilistas patrones, los que no ven con buenos ojos que el ferrocarril haga la competencia al comercio marítimo del Mississippi. El hombre del sur es George Brent, el otro pretendiente, con unas convicciones puras, sin diluir, él no diluye el Bourbon con agua en el gran Salón de San Luis, rodeado de hombres de honor, aterrados por la plaga. Wyler nos cuenta esta obra de Owen Davis con movimientos de cámara seguros, con gráciles travellings y barridos por las calles de Nueva Orleans y sus suntuosas mansiones, en las escaleras que en “La loba” también tenían protagonismo, y en la recordada escena del vals, en ese salón todas las miradas de indignación se posan en la joven rebelde y atormentada de sí misma, hasta el punto que su tía (Fay Bainter) la compara con Jezabel, la orgullosa y manipuladora reina bíblica de Israel. Esta noche giramos la cabeza para contemplar a la joven del vestido rojo... Zacarías Cotán, Raúl Gallego, Salvador Limón, David Velázquez y José Miguel Moreno.

Enquêtrice de la fabrique des images Murielle Joudet le répète à l'envi : « Il faut prendre les actrices au sérieux, restituer avec justice et justesse leur importance dans nos vies, prendre en compte comment certaines ont su manœuvrer pour continuer d'apparaître telles qu'en elles-mêmes, y compris dans des films où le regard masculin est apparemment tout-puissant. Sans pour autant tomber dans l'illusion de leur liberté absolue car, bien sûr, l'industrie est là, souveraine. » Dans son troisième livre plein d'esprit, La seconde femme, elle dresse huit portraits de comédiennes qu'elle observe « jusqu'à plus soif » pour comprendre ce que Nicole Kidman, Meryl Streep, Brigitte Bardot ou son idole Bette Davis réussirent à imposer au système dans le deuxième acte de leur carrière – à force de travail, de bâtons de dynamite ou de simple désertion.Ces derniers temps, Murielle Joudet a aimé Monte-Cristo version Pierre Niney, Max Mad : Furiosa, Joker 2, Bridget Jones 4, France de Bruno Dumont, The Substance de Coralie Fargeat, Anora de Sean Baker ou Spring breakers d'Harmony Korine. Des coups de cœur éclectiques, qui se comptent chaque année sur les doigts d'une main. « Habituellement, confie-t-elle, on peut écrire le texte dans sa tête pendant la projo, on sait exactement ce qu'on pense du film à la sortie et la plupart des œuvres font de moi une critique snob et blasée. Mais une ou deux fois par an, un film me désarme complètement. »En conséquence, cette spectatrice exigeante préférera toujours « voir cinquante fois un chef-d'œuvre plutôt qu'une fois une œuvre plaisante », selon la formule de la cinéaste et écrivaine Catherine Breillat, femme « scandale » à laquelle Joudet consacre en 2023 un recueil d'entretiens, Je ne crois qu'en moi, sacré meilleur ouvrage français sur le cinéma par le Syndicat de la critique.Dans ce troisième et dernier épisode, Murielle Joudet réaffirme ses envies d'enquêtes sur la fabrique des images, en « calmant ses envies de style, sans chercher l'éclat à tout prix ». Tout en rappelant l'existence d'un collectif qui ne manquera pas de fédérer des vocations : « Pigistes en pyjama ».L'autrice du mois : Murielle JoudetNée en 1991 à Paris, Murielle Joudet est critique de cinéma dans la presse (Le Monde), à la radio (sur France Inter pour Le masque et la plume), en ligne (dans le podcast Sortie de secours ou via l'émission Dans le film sur le site Hors-Série) ou pour la Cinémathèque française. Elle a publié quatre ouvrages qui documentent avec rigueur des façons de défier les conventions, en tant que femme, dans l'industrie du 7e art : Isabelle Huppert – vivre ne nous regarde pas (Capricci, 2018), Gena Rowlands – on aurait dû dormir (Capricci, 2021), La seconde femme – ce que les actrices font à la vieillesse (Premier Parallèle, 2022) et un recueil d'entretiens avec la cinéaste Catherine Breillat, Je ne crois qu'en moi (Capricci, 2023).

E puer knuspereg Geschichte vun Hollywood huet de Pit Biwer fir eis, dat vu richtege Superstaren, ugefaange mam Bette Davis a mir kommen do nach op de Leonardo DiCaprio. Dertëscht hu mir nach d'Meryl Streep an den George Clooney.

Hablamos de series relacionadas con el mundo del cine: La biografía televisiva de una de las mayores estrellas del Hollywood clásico, los pormenores del endiablado rodaje de una película muy famosa y una ficción humorística sobre el máximo responsable de un estudio de Hollywood, con apariciones especiales de grandes nombres haciendo -más o menos – de sí mismos. Archie (Filmin, temporada 1, 4 episodios) Miniserie que sigue al icónico actor Cary Grant, un mito perseguido por la tragedia que, incluso en la cima de su carrera en Hollywood, no olvidó sus humildes orígenes en Bristol como un niño llamado Archibald Leach. Grant tuvo una complicada infancia, marcada por la pobreza extrema, el adulterio de su padre y la muerte de su hermano mayor, rompió su familia y le abocó a una espiral de duelo y depresión. A pesar de todo se consolidó y es recordado como uno de los actores más importantes de la historia de Hollywood. Lo mejor: La composición física de Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy en la saga Harry Potter) es espectacular Lo peor: Al basarse en las memorias de su esposa Dyan Cannon, el retrato de Grant parece un tanto escorado. Trailer Feud Bette and Joan (HBO, temporada 1, 8 episodios) La serie explora famosos roces y enemistades entre celebridades y miembros del mundo del espectáculo. Esta primera entrega cuenta la historia de la legendaria rivalidad entre dos de las más grandes estrellas de cine de todos los tiempos, Joan Crawford y Bette Davis, centrándose sobre todo en la relación de ambas actrices en 1962, con una película que esperaban relanzara sus carreras: "¿Qué fue de Baby Jane?". Lo mejor: Jessica Lange y Susan Sarandon están increíbles como Joan Crawford y Bette Davis. Lo peor: Lo que tarda Ryan Murphy en tener preparada una nueva historia de enfrentamientos célebres. Trailer The Studio (Apple Tv+, emporada 1, 10 episodios) Con el cine tradicional intentando mantenerse vivo y relevante, Matt y su equipo de ejecutivos luchan contra sus propias inseguridades, artistas narcisistas y grandes capos corporativos, siempre con la esquiva meta de hacer grandes películas. Vistiendo de traje para disfrazar una continua sensación de pánico, cada fiesta, visita al set, decisión de casting, reunión de márketing y entrega de premios les presenta una oportunidad para el brillante éxito o la catástrofe definitiva. Lo mejor: Lo certero de su humorística mirada sobre este universo tan curioso. Martin Scorsese y Ron Howard haciendo de sí mismos están geniales. Lo peor: Al personaje central le falta evolución y Seth Rogen lo interpreta siempre con los mismos tics. Trailer

Insieme a “Titanic” e “La La Land”, questo film detiene il record per il maggior numero di candidature ai Premi Oscar. Capolavoro di Hollywood, ha come protagoniste Bette Davis (doppiata da Lydia Simoneschi, voce di oltre 5mila film) e Anne Baxter: la prima nei panni di una diva di Broadway, che inizia a lottare con la sua età; la seconda nel ruolo della sua giovane assistente, nonché aspirante attrice, dolce e servizievole solo in apparenza.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Nanny is something of a landmark film for Hammer. It would be their final monochrome release and their last of 1965.As such, this feature packed episodes not only examines the film itself but, sinister nannies, where the studio itself would go next and a big fat fanny of a quiz...“The House Of Hammer Theme” and incidental music - written and produced by Cev MooreArtwork by Richard Wells All the links you think you'll need & more! https://linktr.ee/househammerpod

In Jezebel, Bette Davis plays a sassy Southern belle who pushes prudish fiancé Henry Fonda away. And it's all over a red dress. Jezebel is a movie about manners, propriety and stubbornness in the Antebellum South (courteous though they are, they DO have plenty of slaves) with the looming threat of Yellow Fever. William Wyler's romance in and around New Orleans isn't an all-time classic, but Bette and Fay Bainter both won Oscars for their good, if not quite fantastic work. So coyly pull the back of your extra-long dress up with a riding crop and then spend a year or two being a semi-villain before you make a hard about-face into the land of self-sacrifice. The 688th episode of Have You Ever Seen politely awaits. Before you engage in a stupid duel, make a point of subscribing. Rate and review the show in your app. Let others know about this podcast too. Contact options: email (haveyoueverseenpodcast@gmail.com) and the socials: ryan-ellis on Bluesky and @moviefiend51 on Twi-X. Also, look for me on Letterboxd (RyanHYES). I just started posting reviews on September 28th, although don't be fooled. I didn't actually watch any of those movies on the 28th. My angle with Letterboxd write-ups is to try to come up with something out of left field to make you giggle or go “oh yeah, I never thought of that!”

Jeff Copeland talks with Emmy Winner Charlotte Robinson host of OUTTAKE VOICES™ about his new book “Love You Madly, Holly Woodlawn” published by Feral House. The memoir depicts how an unlikely friendship evolved between a young gay writer and Holly Woodlawn one of Andy Warhol's superstars from the films “Trash” and “Women in Revolt” as well as being Lou Reed's Holly in the hit glam rock song "Walk on the Wild Side". The book is based on the lengthy collaboration between Jeff and Holly as they created the bestselling 1991 autobiography “A Low Life in High Heels: The Holly Woodlawn Story”. For the trash mondo fans this must-read book is a pure delight and a refreshing escape from current affairs. Holly is the embodiment of Auntie Mame and Bette Davis fueled by chardonnay introducing Jeff to the glamorous and sometimes larcenous world of a Warhol Superstar. In turn Jeff uses his writing and typing talent to give Holly the second chance at the fame she craves. This wild read that you just can't put down takes you on a ride through Hollywood in the late 1980's through the 90's. Many of the named people in this literary extravaganza are real and some are famous so you'll probably recognize those but other names have been changed to protect the innocent and not so innocent's privacy. The layout and design by Ron Kretsch illustrating Copeland's journey also adds a timeless dimension with fabulous Hollywood montages and rare photos. We talked to Jeff about his inspiration for writing “Love You Madly, Holly Woodlawn” and his spin on moving forward in the current political climate.  Jeff Copeland served as a writer/producer for almost thirty years in Hollywood for a variety of TV networks and film studios including Discovery, Animal Planet, HGTV, ABC, FOX and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Copeland also spent two years working with Garry Shandling which led to a corporate position with Sony Pictures Television. Jeff additionally devoted years developing scripts to be made into feature films. Currently he's turning some of those scripts into literary applications.  For More Info…  LISTEN: 600+ LGBTQ Chats @OUTTAKE VOICES

For our Universal 1931 Studios Year by Year episode we took in a Sidney Fox double feature, Bad Sister (adapted from a Booth Tarkington novel, with an early role for Bette Davis as the good sister) and Strictly Dishonorable (adapted from Preston Sturges' only successful play and directed by John Stahl). Laemmle Jr.'s protegée uses her ingenue quality to good effect whether she's playing an unsympathetic Alice Adams or a complex early Sturges heroine, and in fact we argue that the latter performance is something of a tour de force, leading us to lament the brevity of her career. Lewis Stone and Paul Lukas also impress in Strictly Dishonorable, while George Meeker gives a game performance as an Ugly WASP American at home.  Time Codes: 0h 00m 25s:    BAD SISITER [dir.

Judy Holliday unexpectedly won the 1950 Best Actress Oscar instead of Bette Davis in All About Eve and Gloria Swanson in Sunset Blvd, but the Judes IS outstandingly funny in Born Yesterday.

Broderick Crawford plays her uncouth, corrupt, long-time boyfriend who's in Washington to buy himself his very own politician while William Holden is the journalist paid to teach Holliday things she didn't know.

"MARK STEVENS: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH" The name MARK STEVENS probably doesn't ring a bell with moviegoers today. However, he's one of those actors who once you see him on screen, you say, “Oh, yeah, THAT guy!” Still, at one time, he was a very in-demand leading man who was always compelling and had a tough-guy likability that brightened up many a hum-drum movie. He may not have reached the upper echelon of fame like contemporaries ALAN LADD or DANA ANDREWS, but he certainly left his mark — particularly in “The Dark Corner” with a pre-TV LUCILLE BALL. Like CHARLES LAUGHTON, DICK POWELL, and IDA LUPINO, he also became a pioneer of the actor-turned-director. Today, we take a look at his long and varied career and celebrate him as our Star of the Month.

This episode was originally released on January 6, 2015. Listen to help prep for the next episode of our new season, The Old Man is Still Alive. This is the story of how Bette Davis evolved from a wannabe starlet who was constantly told she was too ugly for movies, to the most powerful woman in Hollywood, by playing heroines that had never been seen on screen before — to borrow a term from Davis herself, sympathetic “bitches.” After Pearl Harbor, the tenacious Bette became the figurehead of the Hollywood Canteen, a nightclub for servicemen staffed by stars, which was the locus of the industry's most visible support of the troops on the home front. The Hollywood Canteen was a catalyst for propaganda in more ways than one, aims Hollywood furthered by telling the story of the Hollywood Canteen in a movie called, um, Hollywood Canteen, starring Davis, John Garfield, Barbara Stanwyck, Peter Lorre and other celebrities as “themselves.” The movie and most press accounts of the Canteen portray it as a miraculous force for good in the world, which it probably was, but that narrative leaves out a lot, including illicit affairs, a murder, and an FBI investigation whose findings would have an impact on the blacklist of the following decade To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
