Our exit today has us hanging out with fashion models and trying to get our big break in the Cape Cod League. This week, we are talking about two films starring one of the true all stars of A Tripp Through Comedy: Freddie Prinze, Jr. First, we will talk about Head Over Heels, written by John J. Strauss, Ed Decter and David Kidd and directed by Mark Waters. Next, we will talk about Summer Catch, written by Kevin Falls and John Gatins and directed by Michael Tollin. Both films have Freddie Prinze Jr. involved in a romantic situation while trying to advance his career (sort of). They also did not make much noise at the box office. Along the way, we discuss some creepy subplots, Brian Dennehy, Bruce Davison, fake New York City, fake Cape Cod, our love of baseball, Rear Window, some questionable romances, and podcast regular Matthew Lillard. And Ross reads from Wikipedia lists. Plus, Tripp steals Ross' plugs.Thememusic by Jonworthymusic.Powered by RiversideFM.CFF Films with Ross and friends.Movies We've Covered on the Show on Letterboxd.Movies Recommended on the Show on Letterboxd.

Send us a textRemember Assault on Precinct 13? No, not the cult classic from the 70s, the remake from 2005. We remember liking it, what with its ultra-violent action, cat-and-mouse plot, and a stacked class including Laurence Fishburne, Ethan Hawke, and that chick from Sopranos. So join us as we go back to the early 2000s and watch an action movie we remember liking.Do You Remember Liking This Movie?
La figura del caballo y el jinete se recorta contra el cielo, las crines del equino mecidas por el viento de la sierra y la sonrisa de Kirk Douglas, Jack Burns, el bravo cowboy de Los valientes andan solos. El director David Miller tuvo varios desencuentros con Douglas a lo largo del rodaje, y aún así éste era el papel favorito de Kirk. El resultado es potente, acompañamos las andanzas de este caballero que se niega a comprarse un coche y dejar su montura, a Jack le ha alcanzado la modernidad, se echa sobre un peñasco a contemplar el cielo que ahora surcan aviones, y su huida se ve interrumpida por alambradas y carreteras de asfalto. Atractivos hay para dar y regalar en este film, las miradas y abrazos entre una jovencita Gena Rowlands y su amigo errante, la complicidad entre el pistolero y su yegua semisalvaje, la pelea con el manco excombatiente de Okinawa, un diálogo que seguro el guionista Dalton Trumbo inspiró en su encuentro con John Wayne, un camionero sudoroso que transporta cientos de retretes, o el sheriff Walter Matthau, acompañado por ayudante incapaz, persigue con desgana al fugitivo y escupe su sed a las rocas de la montaña, parece desear que Burns escape más que atraparlo, nada que ver con las mala ostia del sheriff de Acorralado (First Blood), interpretado por Brian Dennehy, una película con muchas conexiones con ésta, un argumento similar al western crepuscular de Miller, y con el mismo compositor, Jerry Goldsmith. La fotografía de Philip Lathrop refleja en blanco y negro la fisicidad de los rostros, el sudor del sheriff, los rasgos curtidos de Burns, o la belleza serena de una mujer sola, encantadora, la esposa del amigo preso, Gena Rowlands, el efímero remanso de paz del inadaptado. Esta noche escuchamos los últimos relinchos de Whisky bajo la lluvia, y conseguimos ver de cerca a Burns… Salvador Limón, Raúl Gallego y Zacarías Cotán

This week on the blog, a podcast interview with TV writer Phoef Sutton on writing for Cheers, the best way to replace characters on a show, and why it's not a bad idea to keep your mouth shut.LINKSA Free Film Book for You: https://dl.bookfunnel.com/cq23xyyt12Another Free Film Book: https://dl.bookfunnel.com/x3jn3emga6Fast, Cheap Film Website: https://www.fastcheapfilm.com/Phoef Sutton Website: https://phoefsutton.net/Eli Marks Website: https://www.elimarksmysteries.com/Albert's Bridge Books Website: https://www.albertsbridgebooks.com/YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/BehindthePageTheEliMarksPodcast***TRANSCRIPTI understand that you wrote and acted in plays in high school and in college. Was that always the goal to be a writer or was acting a goal? Phoef Sutton: Well, yeah, acting was a goal. When I came out here, I sort of thought I wanted to be a writer or an actor. And I decided I could only take getting rejected in one field at a time. And I thought getting rejected as a writer was more pleasant, because they don't do it to your face. I just didn't get any traction as an actor. I'm really glad that I did it when I did it, because it's very helpful for a screenwriter or television writer to have acted—to have known what it's like to be on the stage and to have to say the words. I can communicate with actors, I think, a little bit better than a lot of other showrunners who've just been writers. Because I know what it's like. I can understand that. And also, I think I learned—maybe from being an actor or being around actors—I learned how to write for particular people. I mean, when I know a person and I know their voice and I know what they feel. I could write for Treat Williams. I could write for Bob Newhart. I could write for Brian Dennehy. They have different cadences, different ways of speaking. Ted Danson, Kelsey Grammer, Woody Harrelson. And I was able to do that. So that stood me in good stead. And also, being a playwright, I mean, there aren't very many writers who start as playwrights nowadays. I think, just because there isn't really much theater in this country, or at least not in this city anyway. And I was in plays I wrote, too, so, I mean, there you have nobody to blame but yourself. You can't say, “Who wrote this shit,” or, “That actor screwed it up.” And the first thing that I did professionally—aside from some plays in regional theaters, where I got paid a stipend—was Cheers. And that was basically a play: the entrances, exits, one set, all that. And all the actors were theater actors. It was a play. They do stage plays of various sitcoms over the years. They've done The Golden Girls and all that. And I'm surprised they haven't done one of Cheers, because it's a play. And that set, that beautiful set, which was designed by Richard Sylbert, who did Chinatown and all sorts of other movies. Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf. It was a beautiful set. It was a beautiful set. So many episodes of Cheers were just on the set. I mean, we're just on the bar, never left the bar. Never even changed days, because we found that when we filmed in front of an audience on Tuesday nights—and we filmed pretty much the whole thing in front of an audience—we found that (this was later on in the run), we found that when we would have them change their costumes to be a day later, you could never get them (the actors) back. They would go to the dressing rooms, they would start playing foosball, smoking pot, and you could never get them back. So, there are plenty of episodes of Cheers that take place in one day that couldn't possibly have taken place in one day. But we just figured, we don't want to do the costume changes. I remember hearing an interview with (director) Jim Burrows where he talked about Norm's entrance in the pilot. And he said he felt bad for the writers, because in the blocking, he put Norm at the far end of the bar. Which meant every time Norm came in, you guys needed to write a joke to get him across the room.Phoef Sutton: Well, it was one of the trademarks of the show. And so, it was good in that sense. But yes, and everyone had to top the one before. At first, there were very simple jokes. But then they had to be, you know, very complex jokes or philosophical jokes.We would go to great lengths not to have Norm enter; we would have Norm there at the beginning of the show. We didn't want to deal with it. I wanted to do an episode where they put in a new parking meter in front of the place. So, he had to constantly go and feed the meter. So, there would be like ten Norm entrances in it. And people wanted to kill me for doing that. Let's just back up real quick here. I want to talk about your playwriting, because I know you had sort of a learning experience, you got an understanding of how the business works with your play Burial Customs. About how things look like they're going to happen. And then they don't happen. Phoef Sutton: I was just out of graduate school at the University of Florida, and I moved to New York for a brief period of time. I couldn't really get in, couldn't get an apartment, couldn't get a job. But there was a brief period of time when Ulu Grossbard, who was a big director, wanted to direct that play. And it was very exciting. If I'd known more about the business, I would have been more excited [LAUGHS] because he just done Crimes of the Heart on Broadway. And he was really, really big and he was really into the play. I went to his office on—I don't know, on Times Square or something like that, I don't know where it was—but I felt like I was a part of the Broadway scene. And then he just sort of lost interest and it went away. And that sort of thing happens over and over and over again with people in the business. Even if you're very successful, there are millions of times when things look like they're going to be great and then they fall apart. And my initial reaction to that was to say, “I'm not going to get excited about anything until it's real. Until it's really happening.” So that if I sold a script, a pilot script, I wouldn't get excited until they agreed to make the pilot. And then when they did the pilot, I wouldn't get excited until it was on the air. And then when it was on the air, I wouldn't get excited until it lasted. And then I realized that I was putting myself in a position where I never got excited about anything. So, then I changed my attitude to get excited about every little victory of what comes on. I was right to be excited about Ulu Grossbard doing the play. It was a wonderful opportunity. It didn't pan out. There was nothing wrong with being excited. You know, you aren't punished for being excited about something that doesn't come to the ultimate conclusion. I mean, even when we won our Emmys for Cheers, I basically wouldn't be excited, because I would think, “Well, I've got to go back there tomorrow and do it again.” So now I allow myself to be excited about things.That's a very good lesson to learn. To find that balance.Phoef Sutton: It's a hard lesson to learn. So, what happened with playwriting that got you into TV writing? What was that connection? Phoef Sutton: I wanted to write for movies. I wanted to write for movies and I wanted to write for television. I wanted to write for theater and I wanted to write books. I wanted to be a writer. I wanted to be a writer, in one form or another. So, as I said, I couldn't get into New York. I couldn't get a job, couldn't get an apartment. And in LA, I had a relative that I could stay with. And my brother was with the Crown Books chain. So, I knew I could get a clerk job at a Crown Bookstore. I knew I could get a job. So, I moved to LA with my then fiancé. And I just wrote plays, wrote screenplays. I had a friend from college, Barbara Hall, who was on Newhart at the time. She's since gone on to do everything. She did Madam Secretary and I'll Fly Away and all that. And so I wrote a spec Newhart (script), because she was on Newhart. And that was what got me the freelance Cheers job. I didn't know anything about writing for television. I didn't know anything about writing with a group, writing with a room. I was a very private writer, wrote by myself, didn't talk to anybody about what I was writing until it was done. So, I had to learn all that stuff. I had to learn how to pitch. I had to learn how to pitch in the room during the rewrites. It was really my graduate school, Cheers. And it was a good graduate school, because obviously there were the best writers in the business on that show. So, you're learning from some really, really good people.Phoef Sutton: Absolutely. Absolutely. Absolutely. And it was very tense. It was very stressful. It was a hard room. Why was it hard? Phoef Sutton: Well, because you had to be funny. You had to be good. You had to say the right thing. You had to do it. I mean, there were long silences in the room, where people were thinking and crafting and doing stuff, and trying to do it. I didn't speak for the first six months in the room, I think. And I think that was probably a good choice. Because the year I joined the staff, two other writers joined the staff too. And I was the only one who made it all the way through the year. They were both let go. And I think part of the reason was that I knew my place. [LAUGHS] I didn't talk first. And then I would try a few jokes and they got laughs. I would try a few more jokes and they would get laughs. And then before you know it, you're doing it and you're just in the zone. It's a difficult thing to describe. Were you breaking stories as a group? Phoef Sutton: Yeah. Oh yeah. Every story on that show was broken as a group. We never came in with a story. At the beginning of each season, Glen and Les (Charles) would come in and we would talk about what to do. And it was very clear that they hadn't thought about it for an instant over the break. And everything was, you know, what do we do? What do we do? What do we do? And nobody—no freelancer, no staff writer, no producer—nobody ever came in and said, “I've got a story,” and pitched it. Everything was pitched in the room. And when a story is being pitched and formed and all that sort of thing, at some point—in the early stages—you would get assigned it or another writer would get assigned it. That was the way it worked.What did you learn about story in that process? Phoef Sutton: Well, I mean, you learned everything. I mean, obviously the stories for a sitcom, particularly a sitcom like Cheers, are fairly simple: There's a problem that's presented. Halfway through, it takes a turn and then it's resolved. [LAUGHS] And usually—for the first five years of the show—it's getting resolved involved something to do with Diane, because she was pivotal. But I think more what I learned was that when you're first a writer and you write something—and it's good, it's bad, whatever—you generally think, “Well, that's it, that's what it is, and I can't come up with anything else. That's what it is.” And when people give you notes or object to it, you resist the notes. And the main reason you resist the notes, I think, is that you can't think how to change it. You can't figure out anything different. And I just learned very early on that there's always a different way to do something. Anything, anything. Nothing is perfect. Everything—always—has a different way to go. There's always a different way to look at it. Always a different approach to take to it. And maybe that approach won't be better. Maybe it'll be a linear move. Maybe it'll be worse. On Cheers, it was almost always better. It almost always got better. I'd say it always got better in the room.Cheers is well known for—unlike other series where major cast members left—you guys handled it better than anyone ever. Do you have any idea what was the magic powder that made it work where you guys did it? Phoef Sutton: Well, there were a couple of things. First of all, the cast always changed. The cast was always changing. It was never the same. I mean, there were the people who were replaced, left and were replaced. But there were also the people who came in. Frasier, Lilith. One of the reasons the show lasted as long as it did was that when you were writing, if you were writing year eight, it was a way different show from when we were writing year three. A very different cast. I'd say the biggest thing that I learned—and I got to do this, because on Chesapeake Shores, we lost the star of the show too, and I had to replace him—was just to make the character as different as possible from the one you're replacing. So that nobody thinks, “Oh, this guy isn't as good as that guy,” or, “This girl is not the same thing as that.” When Coach died and they brought in Woody, there was still the dumb aspect of him. But in general, he was a very different character. He was a young character. He was a naive character. He was from the Midwest. Whereas Coach had been from Sam's life, and he was a ball player, and he was kind of old and kind of brain damaged from getting hit in the head with balls. And they were very different. When Rebecca came in, they made her a completely different character. And one of the reasons they were able to do that was, I think, just luck. Because they had the character of Frasier. And so much of the show was the intellectual versus the blue-collar type people. And Frasier was able to take that on. He had already taken it on from Diane, but he was able to take that on entirely. So, the new character didn't have to be an intellectual type, snobby type. What was originally intended was a hard-nosed businessman who clashed with Sam. It didn't actually turn out that way. She turned out to be more of a basket case, but that was because of the actress and playing to the actress's strengths. And that, I think, is the main thing I learned from that. Because really, when Diane left the show, the show had been on for five years, which is the run of most shows. No show had really survived the loss of its star and she really was the star. I mean, she was the pivotal point of every episode. She was the one, the audience was coming into the bar and seeing it through her eyes. Ted was certainly the costar, but she was really the focal point of the show. So, when she left, we were really scared. We did not know whether it was going to work. And the show shifted then, because it became much more of an ensemble show, because Kirstie—although she was a wonderful actress—she wasn't quite the dominant force that Shelley Long had been. The show really became about Sam and the bar. It had been moving that way already, but it became that way. If you were to describe the show when it first started, it would surely have been: it's a love story between Sam and Diane and will they get together or not? And then it became a show about a bar, about the patrons of a bar and their lives. I think there's a really good lesson in your story about your first year on Cheers, where you didn't say much, and you just absorbed. Phoef Sutton: I think the world would be greatly improved if people didn't say so much. People talk way too much. You know, there's that old saying, I don't know who said it, Mark Twain or whoever: “Better to be silent and thought a fool than to speak up and prove it.” Just don't talk. [LAUGHS] Just take it in. Be the strong, silent type. [LAUGHS]

Pakula's smart, understated legal thriller Presumed Innocent featuring Harrison Ford in one of his finest performances. Taut, richly detailed, and featuring a considerable bench of "that guy" character actors (including John Spencer, Joe Grifasi, and Brian Dennehy), the film rises above the usual theatrics of the Grisham-era Hollywood legal drama with a crackerjack, densely-packed script that rewards upon repeat viewings while never sacrificing its immediacy.We discuss Harrison Ford in the early 90s, his contemporaneous swings into dramatic territory, and the considered decisions to separate the film's protagonist Rusty Sabich from audience's familiarity with the Harrison Ford action-hero brand. Then, we look at the film's complex narrative features (adapted from a book by lawyer-turned-novelist Scott Turrow) and how the film weaves in its rich details with respect for its audience's ability to connect the dots. Finally, we discuss the Extended Presumiverse - sequel novels and television adaptations of the further works within the Scott Turrow canon, including the most recent AppleTV+ series by David E. Kelley starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard.Follow Katie Stebbins on Twitter.Check out Katie's Etsy for cool prints and film zines.....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish

Writer/director/actor Courtney Davis returns to the podcast to help us judge Alan J. Pakula's 1990 legal thriller PRESUMED INNOCENT starring Harrison Ford, Raul Julia, Bonnie Bedelia, Brian Dennehy, Paul Winfield and Greta Scacchi. Based on the best-selling novel by Scott Turow, PRESUMED INNOCENT spins the engrossing tale of a respected prosecutor accused of murdering a colleague. To give away any more of the plot would be a crime in itself. A box office hit upon release, the story has resurfaced in a new adaptation on Apple TV+ starring Jake Gyllenhaal in the lead role. For a movie of highly enjoyable twists and turns (including a still-discussed ending), we highly recommend you see PRESUMED INNOCENT before listening to our spoiler-filled discussion, where we also launch into unrelated sidebars on Casino, Flags of Our Fathers, The Perils of Pauline, Donald Sutherland, Kinds of Kindness, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard's Architectural Digest profile, and much, much more! PRESUMED INNOCENT (1990) is available for digital rental and purchase on most major platforms.

Special thanks to everyone who joined us last week for our recent "All About Aesthetics" livestream, episode 10 focused around Blake Edwards masterful film, "10". Enjoy and see you soon! More on this special stream ,here: For this, the tenth episode of the Aesthetics series, I will focus on the Blake Edwards 1979 masterpiece 10 with the large and unusually terrific cast of Dudley Moore, Bo Derek, Julie Andrews, Robert Webber, Brian Dennehy and Dee Wallace. Although on a more surface level this is Edwards' comedic and even philosophic take on the Sexual Revolution and changing societal mores I will show how it is also compatible with the current discussion in this series of the shift from pre-Rock culture of the 30s-60s, represented by the main character George who is a jazz pianist and composer (!) and the post-Rock era (as well as disco), represented by Bo Derek, the woman to whom George is so deeply drawn. In this sense 10 is as much about aesthetics styles and tastes as it is human relationships. It is also in so many ways quintessentially 1970s filmmaking, a nod back to my 1970s film series while being utterly timeless: one of the most classically and tightly written plays or scripts from Edwards, or really anybody, in the era. #boderek#blakeedwards #henrymancini #muzak #easylistening #sexualrevolution #julieandrews #annettehaven #dudleymoore #deewallace #briandennehy #bartending #cocktailounge #robertwebber #songwriting #hollywood #breakfastattiffanys #audreyhepburn #jacklemmon #waltermatthau #comedy #bedroomfarce #farce #samwasson #vacation #resort #1980s #playboy # #piano #jazz #1979 #1970s #johnritter #california #losangeles #marriage #wedding #hughhefner #polyamory #monogamy #theatre #playwright #sob #petersellars #theparty #leeremick #thedaysofwineandroses #thegreatrace #tonycurtis #thepinkpanther #auterism #warnerborthers #disco #1960s #1950s #dentistry #oralsurgery #slapstick --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mitch-hampton/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mitch-hampton/support

"Gladiator" is a 1992 sports drama film directed by Rowdy Herrington, starring Cuba Gooding Jr. and James Marshall as Tommy Riley, a troubled young man who becomes embroiled in the world of illegal underground boxing. The film's production involved capturing the gritty and intense atmosphere of the underground fight scene. Cuba Gooding Jr.'s portrayal of Tommy Riley required rigorous training in boxing techniques to convey authenticity in the fight sequences. James Marshall, who played Riley's friend and mentor, was also involved in extensive training to bring realism to the film's intense and visceral boxing scenes. The production team worked to create a convincing and atmospheric backdrop for the story, capturing the seedy underground world of illegal boxing matches. The fight choreography, designed to be both brutal and engaging, added a visceral quality to the film's action sequences. "Gladiator" explores themes of redemption, friendship, and the struggle to overcome one's past through the intense and physically demanding world of underground boxing. While the film didn't achieve the same level of critical acclaim as the later Ridley Scott-directed "Gladiator" in 2000, it remains a notable entry in the sports drama genre. If you enjoy the show we have a Patreon, so become a supporter. www.patreon.com/thevhsstrikesback Plot Summary: Tommy Riley is a troubled teenager who, after relocating to a new city with his family, finds himself entangled in the dangerous world of underground boxing. Tommy, struggling to adapt to his new environment, becomes friends with a local homeless man named Pappy Jack (played by Brian Dennehy), who introduces him to the brutal world of illegal and high-stakes boxing matches. As Tommy rises through the ranks, he faces both physical and moral challenges, and his journey becomes a visceral exploration of survival, friendship, and the quest for redemption in the unforgiving world of underground fighting. Gooding's compelling performance and the film's gritty portrayal of the underground boxing scene contribute to the raw and intense atmosphere of "Gladiator." thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thevhsstrikesback/support
