All movie geeks have those movies that we've purchased down at the used DVD store, but just haven't gotten around to watching yet. So this week Todd shares some thoughts on four movies that have been sitting on the shelf for a while, which he finally got around to watching. We start with an early appearance by Rosario Dawson in The First 20 Million is Always the Hardest. Next we go back to the 60's as Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin star in If a Man Answers. After that we look at one of the last films to star Rodney Dangerfield, The 4th Tenor. Then we close things out with the coming-of-age drama Staying Together. We also have some trivia questions along the way, and still make time for a movie recommendation to close the show. 

2025 Tony nominees Jonathan Groff and Gracie Lawrence discuss their Broadway musical "Just in Time," which explores the life of singer Bobby Darin. Groff stars as Darin, while Lawrence plays singer Connie Francis.

Look out--Bobby Darin is back, in Just in Time with Jonathan Groff on Broadway. Here is Darin working his magic with more than a dozen Broadway classics--giving you the real thing, 

My long-time friend, Peter Scott Ruben, is the best guitar player I know, having personally watched him jam with some of the great rock and blues musicians of the seventies (Joe Perry in his pre-Aerosmith days and Kim Simmonds of The Savoy Brown Blues Band are two who immediately come to mind -- I read that Simmonds died two years ago in England and the band had to break up after an amazing fifty-five year run). Since then, Peter has fronted his own bands, and has also carried on his father's legacy as leader of the premier special events orchestra/band in Philadelphia, through which he met "the great one," Frank Sinatra, at a White House gig the orchestra was playing during the Reagan administration back in the 1980's. He also donned a wig a few years ago and played as Eric Clapton in a Cream tribute concert (and I seem to recall he even played a set as Jimmi Hendrix). In addition to his amazing playing, he knows way more about music than anyone in my social orbit so, now that he has embarked on an Act 3 career performing a Frank Sinatra and Bobby Darin one-man tribute show (having bought performing rights to the original Nelson Riddle and other Sinatra/Darin charts), I thought it would be fun to pick his brain here on Pizza Quest regarding why he thinks Sinatra is the greatest performer of all time as well as to see if together we could create a top ten list as well as a Mt. Rushmore top four list of the greatest of the greats. It was so much fun recording this episode -- as you will see and hear -- that I plan on inviting him back to do a similar retrospective on the greatest guitar players and also another on the best bands and performing groups of our time.  Peter and I used to stay up all night during our college days talking about stuff like this, so I know he's game for it, as you will hear in this conversation in which we explore not only Sinatra's greatness but also dive deeply into the why and how of what made him the GOAT (and why Bobby Darin was the prince in waiting until he died way too young). So, as we like to say, it's more about the quest than it is about the pizza, and this time around we jump into Peter Ruben's quest for what distinguishes the good from the great when it comes to musical artists. The topic may have changed, but the game remains the same -- and the quest never ends....

Today, I'm thrilled to announce my episode with Tony winner Jonathan Groff, who is currently starring as Bobby Darin in JUST IN TIME. Tune in to hear some of the stories of his legendary carer, including why he never felt ownership over the role of King George in HAMILTON, what he learned from his experiences with fans during SPRING AWAKENING, why MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG is a love story, why he turned down the role of Finn on GLEE and HAIR on Broadway, his lack of formal training as a singer, working with Olympia Dukakis on THE SINGING FOREST, why he chose THE SOUND OF MUSIC tour over going to college, the serendipity of starring in A NEW BRAIN at Encores!, how Gavin Creel inspired him to publicly come out, what he learned from getting bad reviews for THE BACCHAE, working with Larry Kramer on the film of THE NORMAL HEART, JUST IN TIME's journey from the 92nd Street Y to Broadway, and so much more. Don't miss this honest conversation with a true Broadway star.

Dwayne Epstein is the author of the N.Y. Times bestselling biography, “Lee Marvin: Point Blank,” which was also a finalist in ForeWord magazine Book of the Year competitions. He is the author of the current Amazon bestseller "Killin Generals: The Making of The Dirty Dozen", The Most Iconic World War II Film of All Time.” "Killin Generals" delves into the behind-the-scenes journey of creating "The Dirty Dozen" which became a groundbreaking film due to its unconventional approach to the genre, blending dark humor with action-packed drama. The book and this interview, my second with Epstein, provides an in-depth exploration of the casting process, highlighting the unique selection of actors, including Lee Marvin, Charles Bronson, and Jim Brown, who would come to define the film's success. Epstein tells us about the challenges faced during production, such as the film's anti-authoritarian themes. "Killin Generals" offers a comprehensive look at how the filmmakers and cast transformed a gritty, unorthodox script into a cinematic phenomenon that would influence generations of action films to come.

Vanessa Racci, the beloved jazzy Italian, takes center stage as we paint vivid portraits of Italian American music icons Bobby Darin and Connie Francis. Our heart beats with excitement as Vanessa unveils her latest passion project, "Forbidden Love," a mini musical poised to captivate audiences with its debut at Yorktown Stage in Westchester, New York. She shares her journey and collaboration with the talented Charlie Romo, all while nestled in the historical backdrop of Little Italy, thanks to the encouragement of Dr. Joseph Schelsa. Together, they breathe new life into the compelling and overlooked love story of Darin and Francis, adding depth to their legacies. Our conversation celebrates the indomitable spirit of Connie Francis, exploring her touching embrace of her Italian roots through music, even as she navigated personal trials and the challenging dynamics of fame. Her father's insistence on her mastering the accordion and the resulting success of "Who's Sorry Now?" serve as testament to her resilience and talent. We reflect on her extraordinary journey and ponder her mysterious exclusion from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Vanessa and I weave personal anecdotes that underscore the lasting impact of these musical greats, as we announce the ambitious plans to elevate their story from a mini musical to a grand Broadway spectacle. Music becomes the powerful thread connecting past and present, as we reminisce about the resonant beauty of Italian songs like "Non pensare a me" and "Al di là." These melodies carry the weight of family memories, driven by the emotive power of the Neapolitan cry and the unique vocal qualities that define Italian music. We further explore the nurturing of future Italian American talents, celebrating figures like Charlie Romo who is staring in this production with Vanessa, and discuss the discipline and talent required to excel as a singer. As we traverse through genres, with nods to jazz and R&B legends like Alicia Keys and Etta James, this episode becomes a rich tapestry of music's enduring influence on our lives and the vibrant legacy of Italian American contributions to the musical landscape.
