Wheelabrator Hudson Falls, a 33-year old garbage incinerator, held a public participation meeting Wednesday April 16 as part of its efforts to renew its state-issued air permit. Neighbors and the Clean Air Action Network have long called for plant to be shut down due to its toxic odors and noise. Tracy Frisch of CAAN talks with Mark Dunlea of Hudson Mohawk Magazine about the incinerator.

Hang onto your slipcases because Blake Howard (One Heat Minute Productions) and special guest Bilge Ebiri (film critic/writer/editor at New York Magazine) collaborate to dissect a special CRITERION COLLECTION release.ThiefThe contemporary American auteur Michael Mann's bold artistic sensibility was already fully formed when he burst out of the gate with Thief, his debut feature. James Caan stars, in one of his most riveting performances, as a no-nonsense ex-con professional thief planning to leave the criminal world behind after one last score—but he discovers that escape is not as simple as he'd hoped. Finding hypnotic beauty in neon and rain-slick streets, sparks and steel, Thief effortlessly established the moody stylishness, tactile approach, and drama that would also define such later iconic Mann films as Heat, The Insider, Ali, and The Last of the Mohicans.DIRECTOR-APPROVED 4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew 4K digital restoration of the director's cut, supervised and approved by director Michael Mann, with 5.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrackOne 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and one Blu-ray with the film and special featuresAudio commentary featuring Mann and actor James CaanInterviews with Mann, Caan, and Johannes Schmoelling of the band Tangerine Dream, which contributed the film's soundtrackTrailerEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingPLUS: An essay by critic Nick JamesCover by Fred DavisBILGE EBIRI: BILGE EBIRI IS A FILM CRITIC/WRITER/EDITOR AT NEW YORK MAGAZINE.

1973's Slither was the directorial debut of Howard Zieff (Private Benjamin, My Girl) and the screenwriting debut for W.D. Richter (Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Big Trouble In Little China). In the freewheeling comedic thriller, James Caan goes on the road looking for a stash of embezzled money with Peter Boyle, Louise Lasser and Sally Kellerman in tow.  Famously, Caan was quoted saying he took the role for the money and had little understanding of the story. Dan and Vicky discuss the film along with lots of recently seen including Nosferatu, The Front Room, Shudder's doc series Horror's Greatest, Better Man, Leigh Wannell's Wolfman, Trim Season and The Brutalist. *Sound issues exist in this episode.  We hope they won't detract from your enjoyment of the show.    Our socials:  hotdatepod.com FB:  Hot Date Podcast Twitter: @HotDate726 Insta:  hotdatepod

If ever there was a film that brings true terror out of something as every day as fan meeting their idol, Stephen King's Misery (1990) is that film. Directed by Rob Reiner and based on the bestselling novel by Stephen King, Misery tells a haunting story that swaps out supernatural threats for the all-too-real horror of human obsession. Released at the dawn of the '90s and now over 30 years old, Misery remains one of the most potent psychological horror films of our time. It is a perfect Halloween watch for those who seek more tension than jump scares.Misery centres on novelist Paul Sheldon (James Caan), a successful author famous for his romance series about a character named Misery. After a car accident in a snowstorm, Paul is “rescued” by Annie Wilkes (Kathy Bates), a devoted fan who happens to be a nurse—and who also happens to be completely unhinged. When Annie discovers that Paul has killed off her beloved Misery in his latest manuscript, she takes the word “fanatic” to a horrifying new level. A tightly contained, claustrophobic thriller ensues that leaves viewers on the edge of their seats, not with gore or traditional horror imagery, but with an unrelenting, stomach-turning tension.One of the most striking elements of Misery is its setting. From the moment Paul wakes up in Annie's isolated, snow-locked farmhouse, the world shrinks, trapping both Paul and the audience in an increasingly claustrophobic space where the only two characters are locked in a power struggle. Annie's house becomes a cage, meticulously designed to feel familiar and suffocating, with its well-worn furnishings masking a deadly intensity underneath. The snow-covered landscape outside reflects this feeling—cold, remote, and unforgiving. It's a classic King setting that director Rob Reiner uses to maximum effect, making the walls of that farmhouse press ever closer as Annie's mental state deteriorates.Kathy Bates' performance as Annie Wilkes is legendary, and rightly so. In what became her career-defining role, Bates brings vulnerability and sheer terror to the character, infusing Annie with a disarming sweetness that makes her psychosis even more chilling. She is charming one moment, terrifying the next—a character who could exist in real life and who taps into our deepest fears about trusting the wrong people. With almost no warning, the scenes where she switches from gentle caretaker to vengeful captor reveal Bates' extraordinary range and leave viewers with a sense of helpless dread. Her portrayal of Annie won her the Academy Award for Best Actress, a rare honour for a horror performance and one that cemented her place in film history.Opposite Bates, James Caan delivers a nuanced performance as Paul Sheldon. Though Paul starts as a somewhat self-absorbed writer who wants to escape his romantic series, Caan's portrayal evolves as he faces Annie's wrath. Caan captures Paul's vulnerability and determination, making his transformation from a helpless captive to a man desperate for survival both believable and gripping. His character is put through unimaginable psychological and physical torture, but his resilience offers a glimmer of hope amidst the nightmare. Caan and Bates create a twisted, unforgettable dynamic that keeps the film's tension at a fever pitch.One of the film's most famous—and undeniably hardest-to-watch—scenes is the “hobbling” sequence, in which Annie punishes Paul in a shocking act of violence to prevent his escape. The scene is iconic not just for its brutality but also for how it embodies the film's emotional and psychological stakes. By physically maiming him, Annie shows just how deeply she is willing to go to keep her fantasy alive. Her twisted affection is at its apex here, making viewers squirm from the sight and the implications of her actions. The scene became infamous in horror cinema and is arguably more memorable for the psychological horror it encapsulates than for its actual violence. For many, it is the film's defining moment, encapsulating its unflinching approach to the terror of captivity.Reiner, known primarily for his work in comedies and dramas (When Harry Met Sally, Stand by Me), was an unexpected but brilliant choice to direct this adaptation. He understood that Misery would benefit from a restrained approach, choosing tension over blood and psychological horror over spectacle. This restraint is a large part of what makes the movie so unsettling. The viewer is always left dreading what Annie might do next, imagining the horrors rather than seeing them explicitly laid out. Reiner's style here elevates Misery from a straightforward thriller to a layered character study, forcing audiences to confront the darkness in everyday people and situations.Beyond its immediate impact, Misery has left a lasting influence on pop culture, particularly how it portrays fan obsession. Annie's character has become a cultural symbol for the idea of the “toxic fan,” a trope that has only become more relevant with the rise of social media. Her obsession with controlling Paul's creative output and shaping his work to her liking echoes the demands fans sometimes place on creators today and the entitlement and anger that can arise when fans feel a creator has betrayed their vision. The film's exploration of this dynamic remains unnervingly relevant, making it more than just a Halloween thrill but a commentary on the power dynamics between fans and artists.Watching Misery today, it's remarkable how well it holds up and how fresh and frightening it feels. Stephen King adaptations have always been hit or miss, but Misery succeeds because it strikes at something deeply primal—the fear of being controlled, trapped, and hurt by someone who professes to love you. It's a horror story not of monsters or demons but of a real human capacity for cruelty. As a Halloween viewing, Misery offers horror in a way that is less about jump scares and more about slowly building dread, a psychological unspooling that lingers long after the credits roll.In the realm of horror movies, Misery stands out as a true classic, one that doesn't need blood-soaked scenes or supernatural elements to scare its audience. Instead, it relies on masterful performances, tight storytelling, and universal fear of entrapment to create an atmosphere of relentless terror. This Halloween, for those who crave a horror experience that's as intelligent as it is frightening, Stephen King's Misery (1990) is essential viewing. Grab a blanket, dim the lights, and prepare for an unforgettable ride into the dark depths of fandom gone wrong.Please follow the Podcast and join our community at https://linktr.ee/borntowatchpodcasthttps://www.borntowatch.com.au/

Bridging the Gaps in Autism Support with Drew Walker | What's What BR In this episode of What's What BR, we welcome Drew Walker, Executive Director of the Capital Area Autism Network (CAAN).

Drew invites businesses and community members to engage with CAAN through social media, upcoming stakeholder meetings, and potential collaborations to help bridge service gaps and improve outcomes for autistic individuals and their families.   00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome 00:37 Understanding the Capital Area Autism Network (CAAN) 02:31 Challenges Faced by the Autism Community 05:19 Awareness and Service Gaps 07:39 Provider Shortages and Community Needs 11:11 Building a Supportive Network 12:43 Engaging Businesses and Future Plans 18:24 Conclusion and Call to Action

Where shall we begin, Dear Listener? Oh I know! The toilet. It's a riotous week for podcasting, gang, replete with questionable topics, sex dream recaps, depilitories gone wild, and — you guessed it — how many fingers is Melissa holding up? We go there, kids. And there, and there, and oh my goodness there, too.  Definitely not suitable for the kids this week. But as the french pole vaulters say, I got your medal right here.

In this episode we review the 1981 film Thief, directed by Michael Mann and starring James Caan and Tuesday Weld. Caan plays a safecracker who's finding it quite impossible to break out of his life of crime. On the other hand, maybe he does find a way... COMING ATTRACTIONS: In our next episode we'll be looking at a pair of beloved films that have had unfortunate side effects. We'll start with 1939's Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, and then move on to 1988's The Accidental Tourist, a film Claude has loved ever since he attended a showing in which he was one of four people in the audience (but that wasn't a knock on the film--tune in and find out the whole story).

Buckle up, because we're heading back to 1974 and diving into two cinematic sinkholes of desperation, debauchery, and… digging for dead bodies? For Episode 40, Brad's thrown Jake into the grimy, gambling purgatory of "The Gambler," while Jake's plunged Brad into the blood-soaked, tequila-fueled odyssey of "Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia." First up, Brad's wrestled with James Caan's Axel Freed, a down on his luck teacher in pursuit of one last roll of the dice. Brace yourselves for existential despair, smoky backrooms, and enough high-stakes wagers to make you sweat through your earbuds. Meanwhile, Jake's been grappling with Sam Peckinpah's magnum opus of chaos, "Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia." Warren Oates stars as Bennie, a hapless pianist dragged into a grotesque quest for a severed head and a hefty payday. Expect sun-baked highways and more moral ambiguity than a Tijuana back alley. Did Jake find solace in Caan's self-destructive symphony? Did Brad endure the psychedelic fever dream that is "Alfredo Garcia?" And will anyone emerge from this episode with their sanity intact? Tune in, but remember that when it comes to 1974, the only guarantee is that things are gonna get messy. So grab your whiskey, your existential dread, and your metaphorical shovels, because we're about to dig up some classic cinema dirt. Other movies discussed in this episode: Onionhead (1958), Ride a Crooked Trail (1958), Bonnie and Clyde (1967), The Wild Bunch (1969), Midnight Cowboy (1969), Duel (1971), Straw Dogs (1972), Badlands (1973), Charley Varrick (1973), The Taking of Pelham 123 (1974), Murder on the Orient Express (1974), The Man With the Golden Gun (1974), Young Frankenstein (1974), Chinatown (1974), Blazing Saddles (1974), The Year Without Santa Claus (1974), The Front Page (1974), The Conversation (1974), Italianamerican (1974), Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974), Lenny (1974), Going in Style (1979), Thelma & Louise (1991), Last Action Hero (1993), The Straight Story (1999), The Road (2009), Django Unchained (2012), The Gambler (2014), Win It All (2017), Uncut Gems (2019), Self Reliance (2023).  See what we're covering next week.

What more do you want from Christmas than some warm fuzzies, friends returning from afar and the miracle of Shat The Movies covering another film from the new millennium? Maybe some Will Farrell. "Elf" is the rare movie that old people like Dick Ebert and young people like Ash's kids can equally enjoy. It's timeless, hilarious, a bit optimistic and a clever nod to the Christmas classics that came before. In this episode, the Shat Crew discusses Zooey Deschanel's singing, the perils of an all-sugar diet, New York City peaking in 2005, what makes a good Christmas movie, whether we're losing our holiday spirit, the "Elf" test ending that bombed, Central Park Rangers and the national treasures that are Bob Newhart and the late James Caan. Merry Christmas, everyone, and thank you for listening.

It's "Leave the gun, take the cannoli," "Go to the mattresses," and "I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse" as Jonny and Darin kick off a 1970s-centric season of NostalgiaCast with a look back at Francis Ford Coppola's THE GODFATHER. We talk about the characters, story structure, cinematography, and directorial choices that make up what is arguably the most seminal pop culture phenomenon of the decade. Listen or sleep with the fishes!

Shat The Movies has dabbled in films from the 1970s, but we've never reached back this far. More than 50 years ago, a Francis Ford Coppola epic changed the way America viewed organized crime and set a new standard for storytelling. This is "The Godfather." And who better to commission this film about family than an Italian-American listener from New Jersey with fond memories of sharing mob movies with his dad? For Matt "Don Chachi" Ciampi, the Shat Crew pays its respects to Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan, Diane Keaton, Robert Duvall, Abe Vigoda and, yes, even Talia Shire. Shat The Movies editor Rob joins Gene and Dick as they debate "The Godfather" pacing, dissect the wedding scene and give props to Don Corleone's cat. Gene explains why Tom Hagen is an absolute badass, while Big D finds heroes in Michael and Vito Corleone. And Rob praises the genius of the dinner scene.  This movie is full of morality questions, and the Shat Crew gets into them: Was Michael a jerk for marrying Apollonia? Were the killings personal or just business? Should Vito have been more generous? Is Michael a villain? And, naturally, could "The Godfather" have been better without all the nepotism?  This is a big one, and we hope you enjoy it. Here's "The Godfather."

After a car accident in a remote area, Paul finds himself 'rescued' and held captive by his biggest fan, the deranged Annie Wilkes, played with terrifying intensity by Kathy Bates in an Oscar-winning performance.We'll discuss the nail-biting suspense and psychological horror that sets Misery apart from typical thrillers. We'll delve into the masterful performances by Bates and Caan, exploring how their cat-and-mouse dynamic and the claustrophobic setting create a mounting sense of dread.We'll also analyze the film's exploration of fandom and obsession. And of course, we won't shy away from discussing that notorious 'hobbling' scene, which remains one of the most shocking in cinema history.So, pull up a chair, but maybe keep one eye on the door, as we delve into the chilling world of Misery.

Seemingly emerging with many of his career trademarks already on display, THIEF (1981) is writer and director Michael Mann's film debut and features the auteur's usual meticulous attention to detail and commitment to realism in this terrific crime revenge thriller. When strictly freelance diamond heist expert Frank's fence meets an untimely demise he is forced into a meeting with mafia boss Leo (Robert Prosky), who persuades him to undertake one last, lucrative job. Somehow feeling fresh despite the familiar tropes (even for the time),  Mann hired ex-con John Santucci as a consultant to help bring a level of authenticity to the events of the movie which is never more evident than in the  film's opening scenes, where Caan was specifically trained how to crack a safe. After THE GODFATHER, James Caan rates this as containing some of his finest work, especially an intimate conversation in a diner scene with romantic co-lead Jessie (the incredibly named Tuesday Weld) as they share their twisted version of the American Dream. Frank is an unrepentant recidivist but is sympathetic in his own way and his strong code is at odds with the fantastically assembled cast of amoral bad guys - many making their debut including GREMLINS 2 THE NEW BATCH's Prosky - who seem like almost genial and very ordinary middle-aged men until they are suddenly terrifying and dangling you over a vat of acid. We love to hear from our listeners!

Their email is tellastory@confabulation.caAn honour to have Emira give of her time and vulnerability this week. I have to admit it, I was surprisingly moved by listening to What a Feeling, while mixing the show. I found it really strange to hear something that I'd heard so many times associated with true emotion rather than mocked for being ubiquitous or silly (even if it might actually be both).  As always, I'd encourage you to spend a few minutes listening to the entire song either before or after you listen to the episode (or even both).As Emira mentioned, she is a writer in addition to being a lawyer. Her essays can be found on her blog Montreal Murmurs  or in the pieces she wrote as the the CBC/Quebec Writers' Federation Writer in residence.  Her work has also appeared in The Montreal Gazette  and  The Globe and Mail.  Emira's storytelling has also been featured at a Montreal Confabulation show that you can listen to here. Check out her stuff!Make sure you follow The Volume Knob on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or at our website volumeknob.net.And if you have a story about the song that saved your life be sure to send it to me at volumeknobpod@gmail.com.

This week Shea Weekley, a first-time Missing Framer, joins Shawn for their first viewing of Michael Mann's debut feature Thief starring James Caan. Along with their thoughts on the film and whether it holds up to its classic status, Shawn and Shea discuss whether Mann's unique, rain-drenched, steel blue vision was clear from his debut and how Caan's performance is the glue that holds the story together.HOSTSShawn EastridgeShea Weekley

Life after the Godfather...Mark details the process of getting Al Pucino into the Godfather and the movie's lasting legacy.

Elf is directed by Jon Favreau and he did a great job guiding a cast to cheer and jubulation. It's a well balanced film that I would consider a modern Christmas film and at this point it is a classic. Listen to me talking about the team between James Caan and Will Ferrell, how develop from each other, how music embodies Christmas, and how to relates to certain people who think they got it all but if family ain't there, you got nothing.#morningreel #elf #willferrell

Our third In Memoriam installment features James Caan. We've done Elf already, so we stick with another somewhat underrated choice, Honeymoon in Vegas. This has been a longtime favorite for Pete and Brad and Caan's performance opposite Nicolas Cage is a big reason why.  Also starring Sarah Jessica Parker, and featuring roles by Pat Morita, Peter Boyle, Tony Shalhoub, and a young Bruno Mars, it's a star-studded affair. Listen to hear if it still holds up or if we felt like jumping out of a plane. Then stick around for our lists of Love Triangle movies. With Vegas and Indecent Proposal, these types of movies were all the rage in the early 90's. What else makes our lists?

Back in August, we lost James Caan. As Craig stated, at that time we became "contractually obligated" to review Stephen King's Misery, starring both veteran Caan and a fresh-to-the-scene Kathy Bates. Sooo many wonderful things to say about this movie that we let it run a little longer than usual. Hope you enjoy!

Michael Mann's "Thief" from 1981 comes to the club and Host and Corporate Comedian Steve Mazan talks to himself all about it.  Is this just half of "Heat"? Is this Caan's best? Did we deserve more Tangerine Dream? Where did Frank go? Is this underseen? All these questions and more get answered on thsi week's Mazan Movie Club Podcast.  Home of the Mazan Movie Club Steve Mazan on Instagram Home of Corporate Comedian Steve Mazan

We're paying tribute to legendary actors Ray Liotta, James Caan, Paul Sorvino, and Tony Siricio on this episode. We discuss our favorite films and tv shows, plus examine some of their connections to real gangsters. Roberto jumped in on this episode, so there's plenty of hilarity and hijinks!

This week, Gavia and Morgan celebrate the late James Caan by watching "Thief" (1981), Michael Mann's debut film, which features Caan's favorite of his own performances.

Topics discussed this episode include Caan's life and career, Mann's influential style, this movie's delightfully realistic depiction of safecracking, and more.

This week we pay homage to a titan of cinematic machismo with a review of the semi forgotten James Caan/Petey Boyle road comedy oddity, Slither (1973) Then we bust out our ladles and fish up a lost dreg, festering at the bottom of the filmic slop trough since 1993 in the bizarre, mannequin-based revenge thriller, Kiss and Be Killed.  Feedback: cultofmuscle@gmail.com Facebook: facebook.com/groups/cultofmuscle Merch: redbubble.com/people/cultofmuscle/shop

This week's Empire Podcast sees someone new and noteworthy ease themselves into the fourth chair, as Eddie Hamilton, the brilliant editor of Top Gun: Maverick and the forthcoming double whammy of Mission: Impossible 7 and 8, joins the podteam — Chris Hewitt, James Dyer, and John Nugent — for the duration of the show. So, as well as picking Eddie's brains for tales of editing Maverick and getting the odd tip or ten, he joins us to tackle this week's listener question (about the best fourth instalments in film franchises), and discuss the week's movie news (this episode was recorded before news broke of James Caan's death; we'll discuss the legendary Mr. Caan next week), and we think you'll agree that he's a most welcome addition to the team. Elsewhere, the team review Thor: Love And Thunder, and Brian And Charles, and Chris has an audience with the wonderful Jenny Agutter, star of next week's sequel, The Railway Children Return. The two of them talk about that, and about some of the milestones in her incredible career, including An American Werewolf In London, her cameo in Darkman and, of course, her appearances in the MCU. Enjoy.

This week's Nose wants Sollozzo. If not, it's all out war. James Caan was nominated for an Academy Award for playing Sonny in The Godfather. Early in his career, he worked with Billy Wilder and Howard Hawks and Olivia de Havilland, and he went on to star in movies like Brian's Song, The Gambler, Freebie and the Bean, Funny Lady, Rollerball, Thief, Misery, and Elf. Caan died on Wednesday. He was 82. And: The Old Man is a spy thiller series on FX based on the 2017 novel by Thomas Perry. It stars Jeff Bridges, John Lithgow, Alia Shawkat, and Amy Brenneman.
