POPULARITY
The name may not ring too many bells today, but from the 1960s through the 1990s you just had to turn on your television or (hit up your local comedy record store) and you were sure to run into the work of Sandy Baron who rose from playing the Catskills "borscht belt", to improv and satirical shows (including the US version of "That Was The Week That Was), to becoming a fixture in Vegas, in movies, and on television talk and game shows. In 1984 Sandy was introduced to a new generation of fans with his a role in Broadway Danny Rose, Woody Allen's tribute to shtickmeisters (and struggling agents), then in the 1990s he had a juicy late-career triumph on Seinfeld as Jack Klompus who was a comic antagonist of Jerry's dad. As always find extra cuts below and thanks for sharing our shows. Want more Sandy Baron? We don't usually include other artists in an episode, but how can we fail to give you the whole Lou Rawls classic "A Natural Man" -- with lyrics courtesy of Sandy Baron. https://youtu.be/y9tS0loD3vQ?si=BkE-OA-wTpBUV701 Sandy had one shot at his own sitcom (Hey Landlord!) and it tanked after just one year. Being a great standup comic, Sandy was able to turn his pain to laughs in this routine from shortly after the cancellation. https://youtu.be/jdr0GcxAoQo?si=q-YB2UAcumQDJTdK Woody Allen's Broadway Danny Rose was a love letter to the shtickmeisters of the past (and their sometimes hapless agents). Much of the story is told in flashback during a gathering of comics at the Carnegie Deli -- and Sandy was right in the middle of it. https://youtu.be/mXIM1JXWjm4?si=ZViQ3NSLjeJ4R3-g Longtime fans were delighted when Sandy surfaced in the 1990s playing a pesky rival of Jerry Seinfeld's dad on the classic sitcom Seinfeld. Here are some of of the best "Jack Klompus" moments from the show. https://youtu.be/XLK1eqK2kEo?si=-9LZ0EwUQ1o4BDVw
Our Special Subject this month is the start of a series on the cinematic collaboration of Mia Farrow and Woody Allen. In this first episode we look at A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy (1982), Zelig (1983), and Broadway Danny Rose (1984), paying particular attention to the relationship between the Allen and Farrow characters and to the question of what each partner in the collaboration brings to the other's career. Both of these areas of inquiry yielded some surprises for us; plus, Dave gets to wax lyrical about Broadway Danny Rose, one of his favourite Allen movies. We also have a revival of Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto thanks to the TIFF Lightbox Cinematheque's Marco Bellocchio retrospective, briefly discussing Good Morning, Night (2003), Dormant Beauty (2012), and My Mother's Smile (2002). Discussion of the latter occasioned many mentions of David Lynch, as often happens on the pod, although we did not know at the time that he would be taking leave of this plane of existence.

Avec le retour de la période des fêtes, on ressort les crooners partout. De Bing Crosby à Nat King Cole, on entend toutes les voix suaves d'une Amérique d'une autre époque chanter Noël et nous souhaiter, déjà, une bonne année. Qui aurait cru ça dans les années 70 et 80 où ce genre de chanson était considéré comme totalement ringard. Ah ben oui, il suffit de se référer au tube de Guy Marchand qui, en 1977, en pleine époque disco et punk, rendait hommage aux chanteurs de charme, mais un hommage pas naïf : Hey CroonerTu t'sens pas ridicule la main sur le cœur Tu fais marrer tous les rock'n rollers Quand tu roules tes épaules de mait'nageur Qu'est-ce qu'on a entendu cette chanson à la radio et à la télé, mes enfants. Mais autant ce succès allait être sans lendemain, autant il n'était pas aussi improbable que ça car, on l'a oublié, allez savoir pourquoi, il y avait eu un revival années 40 et 50 aux Etats-Unis au milieu de la décennie. Oui, à une époque où un chanteur âgé de 40 ans était bon pour la retraite, nombre d'entre eux étaient revenus, un temps, à la mode. Est-ce le succès d'Elvis qui n'en finissait pas à Vegas, allez savoir, en tout cas, les crooners avaient connu un bref effet de mode, comme le montre alors l'excellent et hilarant film de Woody Allen, Broadway Danny Rose. Enorme succès, d'ailleurs. Et donc oui, ça peut paraître fou aujourd'hui mais il y a 50 ans, cela faisait un paquet d'années que Sinatra n'avait plus fait de tubes, Hollywood avait remisé les comédies musicales au placard. On n'en a plus vu fonctionner une seule jusqu'à Grease, en 1978, et encore, c'est une exception et il fallait bien se garder d'utiliser le terme de Comédie Musicale. Cette année-là, David Bowie enregistrait un improbable duo avec Bing Crosby, le pionnier du genre, dans une émission de Noël qui serait sa dernière apparition publique. Bowie jouait alors le rôle de l'improbable fan, présent uniquement sur le plateau parce que Bing était le chanteur favori de sa mère. Oui, c'était sa madeleine à lui, le rocker avant-gardiste.Alors, un demi-siècle plus tard, on se demande ce qui s'est passé. Pourquoi les enfants et petits-enfants de ces jeunes des années 60, 70, 80 trouvent ce répertoire variétés - jazzy hyper cool voire classe et certainement pas ringard. Et je ne dis pas ça uniquement à cause des incursions de Lady Gaga dans le genre, non, je rappelle juste que depuis les années 50, on n'avait plus vu autant de nouvelles stars crooners comme Michael Bublé, Diana Krall ou Amy Winehouse. Et donc, en cet hiver 2024, Frank Sinatra revient avec veston, cravate, chapeau, et voix d'or dont il disait qu'elle se rapprochait plus du bel canto que du crooning mais n'empêche, elle touche toujours plus de monde, défi au temps qui passe et au grand livre des époques oubliées.
My review of this spot-on comedy by Woody Allen. 10/10
Richard Crudo began his career in New York City, learning from some of the best in the business, including László Kovács and Gordon Willis, and helping shoot movies such as Ghostbusters 2, Raising Arizona, and Broadway Danny Rose. He then served as cinematographer on movies including American Pie, Out Cold, and Brooklyn Rules, as well as television series such as FX Network's Justified, The CW's Jane the Virgin, and CBS's SWAT. In this podcast, Richard discusses the transition of motion pictures from film to digital, and the concurrent rise of new visual effects techniques. He also talks about being president of the American Society of Cinematographers, the popularity of dark shots in Netflix TV series, and the rise of artificial intelligence and the democratization of movie making. It's an enlightening and entertaining discussion, and it's great to get another perspective on the filmmaking process.
This week on THE BIG 4-0, Ron and Peter wish a happy birthday to the surprisingly fun Duddly Moore/Natasia Kinski/Armand Asante/Albert Brooks farce, UNFAITHFULLY YOURS (a movie neither of us had ever heard anything about until this pod) and, inspired by BROADWAY DANNY ROSE a few weeks ago, we also look back at Woody Allen's seminal ANNIE HALL, a first-time watch for Ron. And as a bonus, at the top of the episode we discuss several recent - and not so recent - films we each watched over the last week or so, including BIRD ON A WIRE, THE SUPER MARIO BROTHERS MOVIE, THE GREATEST NIGHT IN POP, HEARTBURN, IN THE LINE OF FIRE, DRAGON FORCE, THE HOLDOVERS, EVIL DEAD RISE, and LEAVE THIS WORLD BEHIND among a few others. Please remember to Rate, Like, and Subscribe, and we'll be back next week to dance the night away celebrating The Big 4-0's of FOOTLOOSE and BLAME IT ON RIO!
Today we're blowing out 40 BIG candles for Steve Martin's absurdist romcom THE LONELY GUY and Woody Allen's talent manager farce BROADWAY DANNY ROSE; both of which were released on January 27, 1984. We'd also like to dedicate this episode to Peter's long-time friend (and BIG 4-0 fan) who passed away unexpectedly a few days prior to recording.

GGACP celebrates the 40th anniversary of a movie that inspired the podcast, Woody Allen's "Broadway Danny Rose" (released January 27, 1984) by revisiting this funny and fascinating conversation with one of the film's performers, comedian and director Howard Storm. In this episode, Howard (accompanied by writer Steve Stoliar) talks about the glory days of burlesque, the heyday of Jewish gangsters, the challenges of directing Redd Foxx, Don Rickles and Robin Williams and Howard's entertaining memoir (co-authored by Steve), "The Imperfect Storm." Also, Desi Arnaz saves the day, Raquel Welch acts the diva, Harry Belafonte breaks Jack Rollins' heart and Howard crosses swords with Don Adams, Lucille Ball and George Jessel. PLUS: Wayland Flowers and Madame! Praising Valerie Harper! The genius of Bud Abbott! And the return of "Dueling Grouchos"! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Back at episode 110 of See Hear, Tim, Kerry and I had a round table discussion (Broadway Danny Rose style) about Denny Tedesco's 2015 documentary, The Wrecking Crew. That film was about the session musicians of the 1960s LA scene that made the “name” performers sound great. These session musicians were not known by name outside of that community until their achievements were lauded decades later. What happens in the 1970s when the next generation of LA musicians want to have the ability to play with lot of different artists AND have the joy of being part of a BAND rather than just being part of a pool? You get Danny Kortchmar, Leland Sklar, Waddy Wachtel and Russ Kunkel rewriting the rules. Welcome to episode 113 of See Hear Podcast. Unlike the members of the Wrecking Crew who were originally trained as jazz musicians, and fell into rock and roll to earn a living, the new generation of musicians had grown with rock and roll, loved The Beatles, and wanted to play with songwriters that they admired – as well as contribute to their arrangements. They had the best of both worlds – freedom to play with different people, but still feel part of a gang. Director Denny Tedesco has created a wonderful follow-up to his Wrecking Crew film with the new doc, Immediate Family. For the last few years, they've been playing as a band under that name, but for years, they were playing (together and separately) for hundreds of songwriters / performers including James Taylor, John Prine, Carole King, Bob Dylan, Brian Wilson, Linda Ronstadt, Gene Clark, Jackson Browne, Warren Zevon, Phil Collins, and many many more. Their “employers” were also their friends who valued these gents' creative input, not just the ability to knock off a song under tight record company and studio requirements. Once again, Denny has produced an absorbing film about a side of rock history not usually discussed outside of musician circles. As well as chatting about Immediate Family, we of course go back to The Wrecking Crew documentary, and Denny's relationship with his dad, legendary guitarist, Tommy Tedesco.

It's January 13th, and there are no movies worthy of celebrating their BIG 4-0's at the 1984 box office, so even though it's only our second episode of the new year/season, we're already doing a bonus episode. Last September we celebrated the BIG 4-0's of DEATHSTALKER and REVENGE OF THE NINJA, the sequel to 1981's ENTER THE NINJA. So, this week we're taking a look at that first NINJA film and DEATHSTALKER's sequel, 1987's DEATHSTALKER II.

Recorded on Sunday, November 18, 2023. We talk about locking doors staying over at someone's house the television program Rhoda our dinner the films “Cinderella Man” in “Broadway Danny Rose” plus more.
Keith and Jason have never been afraid of plunging into the question of separating the art from the artist. So why not jump into that rhetorical pool again by looking at two films by cinematic master Woody Allen. Annie Hall almost seems like a rough draft of Hannah and Her Sisters, or maybe an earlier version of themes Allen would explore more fully in Hannah, as both films mine similar territory but with a different level of maturity, empathy and depth. The guys spend 83 minutes talking about these and more films (watch Broadway Danny Rose!), and try to give some context on why they can justify watching films by a man who is so problematic. Please do let us know how we did. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jason-sacks/message

Im direkten Vergleich zur ersten Episode dieser Woche, wo wir extremes Hirn aus-Programm propagiert haben, gibt es heute den direkten Gegenentwurf. Wir reden mit Classic Dave und erstmalig Konny, der ein ernstes Herzensprojekt mitgebracht hat, und auch der heutige Auftragsfilm hat nicht gerade Partypotenzial. Banausen-Diversity, es geht auch anders - auf schlechte Wortspiele, billige Scherze, und ein historisches Punkteraten müsst ihr trotzdem nicht verzichten.
Shadows And Fog is the 20th film written and directed by Woody Allen, first released 1991. Woody Allen stars as Max Kleinman, returning to being the sole lead for the first time since Broadway Danny Rose in 1984. He lives in a town that resembles old German expressionist films by directors such as Fritz Lang. The dark and foggy town is plagued by a killer. Kleinman has been roped in to search for the killer, but is given little or no facts to work with, and soon left on his own. Shadows And Fog is one of the strangest films in Woody Allen's canon. It's a 90 minute, black and white allegorical play about death and religion. Lucky for Woody Allen that by this point, it had been decades since he had to pitch a film to anyone. This week, episode 16, we look at 1991's Shadows And Fog. How it was conceived, how it was made and how it flopped really badly. Spoilers are everywhere so watch the film first and then come back.

My year of reading romances has modeled so many good things for me, especially stories with the family of choice trope. We're not all lucky enough to be raised in an emotionally healthy family, so reading about how loving, supportive people show up for the people they care about can be a healing experience.https://www.confessionsofaclosetromantic.comLauren is a fellow member of the Heaving Bosoms podcast Facebook page, and we share a love of many of the same romances. She was so much fun to talk to--thanks Lauren!Fran writes the most witty, romance-related epigrammatic tweets.There are a lot of other interesting tropes linked from the Family of Choice trope page at TVTropes.org.BooksThe rock bands in the VIP series by Kristen Callihan and the Dirtshine rockstar series by Roxy Noir are some of the best families of choice romances I've ever read. Fall is my favorite book, but both series feature intersecting, emotionally rich, sexy steamy stories about the realities of life in the spotlight, and what happens to ordinary people when they enter that glamorous world.The New York burlesque setting of A Certain Appeal makes for an inspired Pride and Prejudice retelling. The Elizabeth, Jane and Darcy of this story are irresistible, too. Don't miss the audiobook narration by Julia Whelan -- her Darcy is a sexpot.MoviesThis trailer for Magic Mike is mwah. The women in Hustlers are so stunning, so sexy and centered in their power, you almost forget their modern gendered Robin Hood scheme is basically breaking the law.Broadway Danny Rose, A Prairie Home Companion, and classic movies The Bandwagon, Gold Diggers of 1933 and the Broadway Melody movies of the 30s are some of the best found family showbiz movies ever made. 42nd St. is groundbreaking, and Footlight Parade creates much of the same magic.

Una nuova retrospettiva con protagonista un noto regista, sceneggiatore e attore che il pubblico italiano conosce fin troppo bene ma che magari, a volte, non valorizza più di quanto meriterebbe. Ed eccomi quindi alle prese con una rapida ma intensa retrospettiva della filmografia di Carlo Verdone. Il ventunesimo secolo di Carlo Verdone viene inaugurato da un perfido film che strizza l'occhio a "Broadway Danny Rose" di Woody Allen e che sembra quasi un seguito "ideale" di "Perdiamoci di vista" per come Verdone ritrae il dietro le quinte di un certo mondo dello spettacolo.
Broadway Danny Rose is the 12th film written and directed by Woody Allen. A love letter to his comic roots, BROADWAY DANNY ROSE marks the time when Allen managed to synthesise his European influences with his American humour into something all his own. It's a small story – and a short one – but Allen's story is full of heart and he creates two of his best characters in Danny and Tina. Woody Allen stars as Danny Rose. The character's name has become an archetype – a naive but lovable talent manager, who would do anything for his acts. In a great chequered suit, Rose represents all that Allen loves about show business. In fact, despite not being a particularly funny film, it's Allen's love letter to comedy. Welcome to the Woody Allen Pages podcast, from me, the creator of the Woody Allen Pages website. This week, episode six, we look at 1984's BROADWAY DANNY ROSE. Of course, spoilers are everywhere - so watch the film first. So much more at our website - Woody Allen Pages.

The boys discuss the vaccine, the New Yorkers who lost it all and watch the 1984 Woody Allen classic, Broadway Danny Rose. Was he innocent?
Before the phrase “ME TOO” or “CANCEL CULTURE” a guy was obsessed with his 7 year old daughter, then he married, essentially, his step-daughter. And people were like … okay, we don’t love this but Broadway Danny Rose is still a great movie, so … the heart wants what it wants? There’s a new podcast series, Farrow V Allen, and this week, we’re gonna discuss it, our thoughts, some clips -- the USHE -- this is Easy Listening, a podcast about podcasts.

On the surface it seems like your typical shoot-’em-up 90s action flick starring Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes, but there’s much more to it than that. Demolition Man is a witty social satire, laced with Orwellian elements and blatant homages to Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, a denouncement of the PC culture nanny state and the lack of true humanity in the placid, rose colored Utopia many people crave. Demolition Man has aged well, perhaps to well. The fact that tho film is as relevant as it is almost 26 years after its release is actually frightening to me. Lenina Huxley, played by Sandra Bullock is a citizen of San Angeles in the year 2032. A soft, calm, tranquil society that is free of violence and crime, where harsh language and physical touch has been outlawed, especially real life intercourse. Lenina surrounds herself with relics of the 90s, a time when humans could be, well, human. Sure there was violence, crime and offensive language in the 90s but people could express themselves and not worry about offending anybody. People could enjoy many of their vices, as long as nobody else was getting hurt, they could take risks, have sex, laugh at vulgar jokes and watch R rated films. Of course, the real life 90s weren’t exactly perfect, but it was definitely a smorgasbord of culture compared to Lenina Huxley’s bland new world. One could argue even better than real life 2019. Of course, in this alternate universe of Demolition Man, a great Earthquake of 2010 precipitates a major paradigm shift in their culture. While the cultural change hasn’t been as dramatic, you can see a parallel in the change of culture in Lenina’s world to the shift we experienced in the 9/11 terror attacks, and this is portrayed in a film that was released 8 years before that event happened. I don’t think our world is in danger of becoming as ridiculously overbearing and neutered as Demolition Man’s version of 2032, but we aren’t as far off as I’d like. Demolition Man’s greatness comes in the form of two machismo maniacs and rivals from the 90s named John Spartan and Simon Phoenix, who are thrust into a docile daycare society after being unthawed from cryogenic freezing. These two turn San Angeles upside down as they settle scores with hand to hand combat, car chases, explosions, guns and bad one liners, as two muscle bound meatheads from a bygone era.

Dick Hyman is a pianist, organist, arranger, performing & recording artist, composer and music director. If one word could describe Hyman's career in music, it would be "prolific." With more than 100 albums recorded under his own name, his albums have been interpretations of all eras of American music, from ragtime and early jazz, to recordings of the great composers like Irving Berlin, Harold Arlen, Cole Porter, George Gershwin, Richard Rodgers and Duke Ellington. Dick Hyman has extensive experience as a studio musician. Dick Hyman has worked with artists as diverse as Benny Goodman and Art Garfunkel. He's contributed to countless movies as a film scorer (Moonstruck, The Lemon Sisters, etc.). Hyman is perhaps the most significant musical contributor to the films of Woody Allen, among them Zelig, The Purple Rose of Cairo, Broadway Danny Rose, Stardust Memories, Hannah and Her Sisters, Radio Days, Bullets Over Broadway, Mighty Aphrodite, Everyone Says "I Love You", Sweet and Lowdown, The Curse Of The Jade Scorpion and Melinda and Melinda.Support The Paul Leslie Hour by donating to their Tip Jar: https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/the-paul-leslie-hour

In this episode of The Italian American Podcast, I talk with actor Michael Badalucco, a passionate Italian-American and a really funny guy who has had some big success in his acting career and is also very involved in the Italian American community. About our Guest… Michael Badalucco, a Brooklyn native, got his start in the entertainment industry at a very young age, going to work with his father Giuseppe, a Sicilian-born immigrant, who worked as a carpenter on movie sets. His first speaking role was in the feature film Raging Bull, directed by Martin Scorsese, which led to additional roles in movies such as Broadway Danny Rose, directed by Woody Allen. Throughout the 1990's, Badalucco appeared in a series of memorable supporting roles in such acclaimed films as Miller's Crossing, Sleepless in Seattle, Jungle Fever, The Professional, and Mac. His performance in the romantic comedy One Fine Day, prompted star Michelle Pfeiffer to recommend Badalucco to her husband, David E. Kelley, for a role in his ABC television series The Practice. Not only did Badalucco get the part, but his performance as Jimmy Berluti would ultimately serve as his breakout role. In 1999 he received the Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series. Next, on the big screen, he portrayed serial killer David Berkowitz in Spike Lee's Summer of Sam. He then stepped into the shoes of notorious gangster George "Baby Face" Nelson for the throwback Coen Brothers comedy, O Brother, Where Art Thou? and appeared in their subsequent film, The Man Who Wasn't There. Michael is privileged to support Italian-American causes through his work with the National Italian American Foundation and Arba Sicula, an organization which preserves, studies, and promotes the language and culture of Sicily. He is also a proud member of the New York Athletic Club, Tiro A Segno of New York, and The Italian American Marching Club of New Orleans, where he has served as Grand Marshal of its annual parade in honor of St. Joseph.

See Hear is about to get nostalgic for episode 40….or maybe not. There are two sorts of people in the world – those who love the FILMS of Woody Allen and those who can’t stand them. Among those who love his films there are two sorts of people – some prefer his early zany films about relationships, morality the universe and our place in it, and bouncing boobs. However, there are those who prefer his mid-period Fellini / Bergman style dramas / comedies about relationships, morality the universe and our place in it, but with no bouncing boobs. (Does anyone prefer his latter-day films?) Tim, Bernie and Maurice are joined once again by Frank Santopadre of Gilbert Gottfried’s Amazing Colossal Podcast to discuss 1984’s Broadway Danny Rose, a film that combines the best elements of the former and latter styles of his filmography. Woody plays Danny Rose, a loyal theatrical agent for acts no one else wants to handle. It looks a has-been singer who he manages (there’s the musical connection, folks) is on the brink of making a successful comeback. He tasks Danny with bringing his mistress to an important show….hi-jinx ensue. Aside from talking about the film itself, we discuss our favourite films from Woody’s back-catalogue, the use of music in his films, whether Woody Allen's films are really about nostalgia, New York as a back-drop for cinema and how it’s changed over the last 30 years…..and Milton Berle’s member. Once again, we owe a huge debt of thanks to Frank for taking the time to come on the show. He has an encyclopaedic knowledge of film, and is a super-mentsch to boot. Thanks for helping make this episode extra special. You can download the show by searching for See Hear podcast on iTunes or download from http://seehear.podbean.com/ If you dig what we do, could you please rate us at iTunes or even better, spread the word that the show exists so more folks can tune in.

On this episode, two Woody Allen superfans try to manage his talent in the director’s film BROADWAY DANNY ROSE. Unfortunately a strange mob subplot in that movie has us heading to Los Angeles with John Travolta as he attempts to GET SHORTY. This double feature on talent wranglers has been inspired by new release GENIUS.
