Olivier Guez"Mesopotamia"La nave di Teseowww.lanavediteseo.euAvventuriera, archeologa, scrittrice, diplomatica, spia in grado di parlare fluentemente arabo e persiano, Gertrude Bell fu la donna più potente dell'impero coloniale britannico al termine del primo conflitto mondiale. Protagonista della creazione del moderno stato dell'Iraq, di cui ha contribuito a tracciare i confini, idealista come il suo fedele alleato Lawrence d'Arabia, coraggiosa, tenace e imperialista come il giovane Winston Churchill, figlia amata e incompresa di una ricca famiglia vittoriana, donna disperatamente innamorata, Gertrude Bell resta per noi un enigma, persa nel silenzio che la Storia, troppo spesso, riserva alle imprese femminili.Dalla scoperta di giganteschi giacimenti di petrolio ai crudeli giochi di potere tra inglesi, francesi e tedeschi, dalle trattative sotto le tende beduine alle sabbie di Baghdad, dove il destino di migliaia di persone è ogni giorno appeso a un filo: Olivier Guez recupera dal deserto la vita di una donna straordinaria, per raccontare l'epopea travolgente di una terra mitica e maledetta, la terra di Abramo, la terra del diluvio e di Babele, dei sogni infranti di Alessandro Magno: la Mesopotamia.Traduzione di Milena Zemira Ciccimarra.Olivier Guez è uno dei più noti scrittori francesi. Nel 2017 ha vinto il premio Renaudot per La scomparsa di Josef Mengele, di cui La nave di Teseo ha pubblicato l'adattamento a fumetti (2024). Da questo romanzo Kirill Serebrennikov ha tratto l'omonimo film, presentato al Festival di Cannes 2025. Guez ha inoltre pubblicato in Italia Elogio della finta (2018), Nel paese dell'aquilone cosmico (2022) e ha curato Il secolo dei dittatori (2020). Ha ricevuto il Deutscher Filmpreis per la miglior sceneggiatura nel 2016 con il film Lo Stato contro Fritz Bauer e ha insegnato Letteratura francese e Storia della cultura europea all'Università di Princeton nel 2025. Collaboratore per anni delle più importanti testate internazionali, ha scritto per “Le Monde”, “Le Point”, “The New York Times”, “Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung”, “Corriere della Sera” e “Il Foglio”.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Do filmmakers still need a Producer's Rep? We break down the history of producers reps, why they mattered in the 90s, and how direct access to acquisitions execs at markets like AFM, EFM, and Cannes has changed the game.

Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi has been jailed, gone on hunger strike and even sold his house to pay bail – all for the right to make movies. After winning the Palme d'Or at Cannes and being selected to represent France at the Oscars, he's now releasing his new film "It Was Just an Accident", inspired by his own imprisonment. In this interview, Panahi explains to Eve Jackson why every film is worth the risk.

Il y a 55 ans, au mois de mai 1968, une jeune actrice américaine, blonde et bronzée, posait en bikini sur une plage de Cannes, invitée au 21eme Festival. Elle y accompagnait son mari, un réalisateur promis à une carrière célèbre, Roman Polanski. Un an plus tard, Sharon Tate, 26 ans, enceinte mourait lors d'une nuit de terreur à Hollywood. Sous les coups de couteaux d'adeptes guidés par le sombre gourou californien Charles Manson. L'affaire va glacer d'effroi l'Amérique et le monde. Cinq morts ce soir-là même si l'histoire ne va retenir que le visage et le nom de Sharon Tate.Hébergé par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

L'émission 28 minutes du 30/09/2025 Le cinéaste Jafar Panahi, Palme d'or, met à mal le régime iranien Dans son dernier long-métrage, Palme d'Or à Cannes, Jafar Panahi raconte ce qui n'aurait pu être qu'un banal accident, une nuit sur la route lorsqu'un couple en voiture, sa fillette à l'arrière, renverse en pleine campagne un chien errant. “Un simple accident” (titre du film) qui va conduire un garagiste à reconnaître à travers l'automobiliste dont la voiture a été percutée, l'agent des renseignements iraniens, qui l'a torturé autrefois en prison. Le garagiste, le suit, le repère, le kidnappe et le séquestre dans son van avant de solliciter plusieurs anciens prisonniers pour être sûr que l'homme enlevé est bien son tortionnaire. Au coeur de ce film, le cinéaste iranien se pose une question essentielle, pour lui, qui a été emprisonné deux fois en prison en Iran : “Et si un jour, dehors, je croisais celui qui m'a interrogé en prison, si je me retrouvais en face de lui, qu'est-ce que je ferais ?” Jafar Panahi expliquait au magazine “Trois Couleurs” que son œuvre était un film d'anticipation : “Je ne l'ai pas fait pour maintenant. Je l'ai fait pour l'après, pour le moment où ce régime sera renversé.”Plan Trump pour Gaza : un plan pour la paix ou un plan en trompe-l'œil ? Ce lundi 29 septembre, Donald Trump et Benyamin Nétanyahou ont donné une conférence de presse depuis la Maison Blanche. À l'ordre du jour, un accord destiné à mettre fin à la guerre à Gaza avec en ligne de mire “la paix au Moyen-Orient”, a déclaré le président américain. Soumis au Hamas, ce plan américain en 20 points, soutenu par Israël et salué par plusieurs pays arabes, prévoit notamment “la libération immédiate de tous les otages dans un délai maximal de 72 heures” qui permettrait la libération de 250 prisonniers palestiniens condamnés à la perpétuité et de 1 700 Gazaouis détenus après le 7 octobre 2023. Le plan prévoit la libération de tous les otages, le désarmement et le désengagement du Hamas, une nouvelle gouvernance ainsi qu'un plan de développement économique pour la bande de Gaza. La création d'un État palestinien est également envisagée à plus long terme. Israël a assuré le désengagement progressif de ses troupes de Gaza en cas d'accord du Hamas, sans calendrier précis. Cet accord est encore attendu et le premier ministre israélien a déclaré qu'il se gardait le droit de “finir le travail” en cas de refus. Enfin, Xavier Mauduit s'intéresse au nouveau variant du Covid-19 nommé Frankenstein et nous raconte l'histoire de ce monstre très célèbre. Théophile Cossa nous explique comment fonctionne le nouveau médicament révolutionnaire contre le VIH, bientôt disponible pour 40 dollars par an. 28 minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Élisabeth Quin du lundi au jeudi à 20h05.

On episode 308 of the AwardsWatch podcast, Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade and Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello look at the competitive International Feature Film contenders and provide a preview of some of the major titles coming to the 63rd New York Film Festival. With more than 70 countries having submitted films for the International Feature Film Oscar so far, now was a good time to look at the frontrunners like Sentimental Value, It Was Just an Accident and The Secret Agent, the NEON dominance of them and how many can really make the final five. We also look outside of those Cannes winners for titles that could pique the voters' interest as uniquely named films have done in the past. Next up is the preview of the 63rd New York Film Festival, which begins this Friday with the opening film, Luca Guadagnino's After the Hunt. After taking a critical drubbing at its Venice bow, we examine if it can rebound here in the states. Two world premieres will be a part of the festival including Anemone, the feature debut from Ronan Day-Lewis starring his three-time Oscar-winning father Daniel Day-Lewis, back on screen for the first time since 2017's Phantom Thread. At the time of recording both Sophia and I had just seen the film but were under embargo (until September 28). The Venice Golden Lion winner Father Mother Sister Brother from Jim Jarmusch is the Centerpiece film and then Bradley Cooper's third directorial effort, the stand-up comedian story Is This Thing On? will close the festival. Could this be Cooper's attempt to rein it in and silence some of the critics of Maestro? This podcast runs 1h07m. We will be back next week with xxxxx Till then, let's get into it.

This key figure in the Iranian New Wave, one of only four filmmakers ever awarded the top prize at each of the three biggest European film festivals, reflects on his cinematic critiques of Iranian society, continuing to work even after being jailed by the regime and then banned from making films under the threat of being sent back to jail, and how his own experience with a prison interrogator partially inspired his latest film, which won Cannes' Palme d'Or in May and was just chosen as France's entry for the best international feature Oscar race.

My guest this week is David Secter. As a student in the 1960s, David bluffed his way into getting equipment, money, and crew to make a groundbreaking queer film called Winter Kept us Warm. And despite the fact that he went in with zero filmmaking experience, the movie wound up becoming the first English-language Canadian film to screen at Cannes … and went on to inspire the work of many other filmmakers, including David's classmate David Cronenberg.

Send us a textHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast, I am delighted to welcome James and Tracey, making memories one trip at a time, and creators of The Traveling Type YouTube channel, and Instagram. As frequent listeners know, I watch cruise YouTube videos incessantly as I work on the podcast seemingly every waking hour—often with the sound down. When a The Traveling Type video comes on, I turn the sound up because I know they are likely going to chronicle a cruise (or land trip) I can relate to because Cheryl and I have done it—Dubai/Abu Dhabi, Aruba, Venice, Cannes, Maxwell Cruise—or James and Traceyare sharing experiences we long to do, e.g., Icon of the Seas, Carnival's new Celebration Key! James and Tracey said, “Our channel is The Traveling Type.  Our channel allows viewers to experience the world through our eyes. Our channel is our way to share us exploring the world, sharing the beauty, culture, and experiences encountered along the way. We try to provide helpful information, practical tips, or simply an escape through vicarious travel. We were bitten by the travel bug early on while our children were young. Vacations allowed us to create lasting memories while exposing them to diverse cultures and show them that the world has so much to offer.

Connected TV is no longer just a buzzword in the ad world — it's where the industry is being reinvented. Audiences aren't just watching differently; they're shopping, engaging, and co-viewing in ways that open new creative doors for brands. And sitting at the intersection of entertainment and advertising is Roku, a company that's helping marketers meet these shifts head-on.In this episode of The Big Impression, Roku's VP of advertising, marketing & measurement, Sarah Harms, explains why the company is uniquely positioned as a publisher and an operating system. Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript  may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio.Damian Fowler (00:00):I'm Damian Fowler.Ilyse Liffreing (00:01):And I'm Ilyse Liffreing.Damian Fowler (00:02):And welcome to this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (00:09):Today we're talking about how streaming and connected TV are transforming not just how we watch, but how brands connect with audiences.Damian Fowler (00:17):Our guest is Sarah Harms vice president of advertising, marketing and measurement at Roku. She leads the strategy behind Roku's advertising business, helping brands tap into streaming's growing audience while building smarter measurement tools along the way.Ilyse Liffreing (00:32):Before Roku, Sarah built her expertise across both the buy and sell sides of the industry with leadership roles at Microsoft XR and wpp giving her a unique perspective on how ad tech data and storytelling all come together on Connected tv.Damian Fowler (00:49):We'll talk about how Roku's helping brands of all scientists meet new viewer behaviors, build more effective campaigns, and push the creative boundaries of what's possible on CTV.Ilyse Liffreing (01:00):So let's get into it.Damian Fowler (01:03):So Sarah Roku is in a pretty unique spot right now, right? Between entertainment and ads with this latest brand or measurement move, what got it started? Was there an insight or audience need that really stood out to you?Sarah Harms (01:17):Yeah, so in my role I run ad marketing and measurement. So much of my job is us as a marketer, so marketing roku's, advertising proposition, but also in support of our marketers. And so that makes my job very fun. And so a lot of this conversation today, I'm going to go back and forth between my job as a marketer, but also my job in B2B advertising of driving marketers results on our platform. Something that's really fun about Roku is that we're a publisher, but we're also the largest operating system in the us. We see consumers come through our front door to get to the content they know and love and care about. And so that gives us a really rich canvas for supporting some of our marketers initiatives. And so for example, the Super Bowl was very fun for us, whether it was using our platform to drive traffic to Tuby or to build really fun brand experiences on our canvases.(02:13):So we had, when Sally met Hellman's and we had Hellman's and Roku City and we had the Super Bowl ad and a really lovely zone destination to drive shopping and drive purchases of Hellman's mayonnaise, which you really wouldn't expect from a television advertising experience. And so I think that was a fun one from us in supportive marketers. And then a whole part of my job is making sure our advertisers really know about the Roku experience. And so while it's B2B, it would be silly not to address them in a B2C capacity because our marketers could also be customers, the need to understand the value of the Roku experience even if they don't have a televisionDamian Fowler (02:53):From ro. Once you realize your customers could be businesses, consumers, or both, how did that shift your strategy? Did it change the way you approach things?Sarah Harms (03:01):I think it's just strategic use of our resources and a strategic use of our messaging. We certainly think the Roku experience as an operating system is delightful and easy and intuitive. We talk about how your mother-in-law can set it up herself as the example we always use. And so we certainly want our advertising customers to know that too because it really is a beautiful, elegant experience for advertising as well, for watching content.Ilyse Liffreing (03:28):So you've got such a big range of advertisers from big Fortune five hundreds to D two C brands to B2B. How do you build campaigns or measurements that flex for either of them but still stay true to your own approach?Sarah Harms (03:44):Great. So I'll address that as a speaking to the advertising community part of my job, we certainly are on a journey to evolve our strategy to be more flexible and meet our customers where they want us to be, whether it being in their buying platforms of choice or providing optionality to a D two C customer by giving them a very lightweight, intuitive self-service platform like Roku Ads Manager. And so I think a lot of it from a measurement standpoint is doing some education. I think some of the questions were ground around CTV is still somewhat new, but I don't know if it's new, but it's certainly new in the eyes of performance. And so it's a lot of education about how we can enable customers to drive true outcomes using connected television. And so whether it's ad manager or unique measurement integrations, shoppable formats, we really try to address all of thatIlyse Liffreing (04:36):Now. Streaming's completely changed how people watch from binging to co-viewing and basically everything in between. How do cultural or data trends help shape what you're doing on the platform?Sarah Harms (04:48):Yeah, I mean it's been so interesting to see it change even since the pandemic. I think for a long time CTV was synonymous with SVOD or subscription video on demand. We're very much seen that is not the case anymore. A majority of our households are using some form of A VOD, we're advertising video on demand. And so that trend coupled with live sports coming into CTV and streaming, it's really just driven a whole new slew of opportunities for advertising. And so off the back of that, that's more addressable, more accountable television because it is connected television. And so that's been fun from a education standpoint, it's been fun from a how do we enable our platform to address that and also how do we educate our customers from a measurement standpoint.Damian Fowler (05:37):So what's the ad experience like on Roku? You mentioned CTV and it sounds like there's a pretty wide mix of formats. Can you break that down a little more?Sarah Harms (05:46):I'd love to because I think that's again, where my role as a B2B marketer, it's of course helpful to inform our clients about our experiences then they might not have a Roku device or television. And so we think about our business in really two core buckets. We have the Roku experiences, which is our beautiful ui, so native home screen units, they're customized, they're elegant, and we have some of our more kind of viral experiences like Roku City, which is fun and delightful. We're now doing brand integrations there. But then on the other side, we're also a very scaled publisher. So the Roku channel continues to climb Nielsen's Gauge in terms of total TV content time. And so that is allowing us to be a very kind of open interoperable, performant publisher as well with standard video that's available programmatically. It's available with unique measurement integrations, and that's really our ecosystem being an interoperable partner in the space.Ilyse Liffreing (06:43):Roku City is that fun, animated screensaver, very purple that a lot of people see on their TVs. Can you tell us a little bit about it and the kinds of brands you're partnering with there?Sarah Harms (06:54):Yeah, so this has just been something really fun that's taken off. So Roku City is our interactive screensaver and people love it. I don't know if you see it every day, but it's cute, it's fun, it grabs your attention. We see that it's tweeted about every 12 minutes, so it is a viral experience and so much so that really our advertisers challenged us to think about it differently. And so now we have really a variety of advertisers coming into Roku City. So I gave the Hellman's example. We had Taylor Swift in Roku City. And so it's really just a fun, unique, totally differentiated advertising experience, but we tie it all to the rest of our assets.Damian Fowler (07:36):I heard somebody say this morning, performance media is kind of the baseline. Now with that in mind, how do you think about measuring engagement across all these different touch points that we've been talking about?Sarah Harms (07:46):Yeah, I mean, so much of my job on the measurement side of the house is education. And I think the challenge is that performance is in the eye of the beholder and CTV is still bought via a very different group of personas from a legacy television buyer all the way to someone that had been in social API partners and dipping their toe into CTV. And so performance is required, but it's really a matter of educating them on what that means to them and supporting them in their efforts. But what's great about CTV is its big beautiful television, but with all the addressability and accountability of digital.Damian Fowler (08:23):And on that point though, what is it that linear TV buyers still don't quite get about CTV?Sarah Harms (08:29):I think it's the ecosystem aspect of it all. I think television in the past was measured by a couple companies with a couple KPIs or just reach. And so I think this is where CTV has really unlocked really turnkey, always on easy to optimize measurement. That's very exciting.Ilyse Liffreing (08:48):So one thing we like to do on the show is pull our takeaways from the big campaigns. Are there any KPIs or success stories from the campaigns running on Roku that stand out to you?Sarah Harms (09:00):Yeah, so I think what's been fun is we see that we have opportunities for really kind of all verticals. Obviously Roku is born out of the media and entertainment industry, but we've expanded there. And so we really do have kind of a playbook for each vertical, but auto specifically comes to mind, which is a really exciting one. You don't really think of performance and auto on tv, but we've built kind of beautiful experiences like showrooms where you can configure cars, sign up for test drives. And so I think we've really changed the narrative there in terms of driving actions for that vertical all in a very big, beautiful, elegant canvas.Damian Fowler (09:37):Are there any other kind of surprises from your takeaways in terms of like, oh, that's popping. I never expected that.Sarah Harms (09:44):So for me, I don't carry a wallet. My phone is my wallet. And I think if you told me that five years ago, I would've never believed you. Similarly, I don't think anyone thought they'd be shopping with their television. That happens every day on our platform, and I think it's because of clients testing with us, but also it comes back to us as an operating system. And really our remote, it's a few buttons. It's really easy. We have a direct relationship with our customers from a billing perspective. And so the same way Apple Pay is just so easy now you can shop from your tv, which again seems insane, but maybe we'll be here in a couple years and we'll see so much direct shopping from televisions.Ilyse Liffreing (10:23):What about the interest from B2B brands? It just feels like that sector is really exploding across all categories, but CTV particularly.Sarah Harms (10:33):Yeah, I mean so much of my job as a B2B marketer is a lot of education and a lot of really, so much of our reframing away from being a walled garden to more of an open collaborative partner. And so much of it is doing, we talked in the press about our change away from doing a big new front event. We did more kind of small customized dinners instead just to make sure there is a very direct touch point, but also specifically cater to each client's needs. And so I think that's been more of our approach of making sure we do pointed conversations to address the nuances and needs of each customer.Ilyse Liffreing (11:12):And how was that new approach for you this year? I know a lot of brands are doing things a bit differently at the fronts. How did it go on your side?Sarah Harms (11:21):I think for us it's knowing the value of us as the operating system and having great content, but not being these content giants that have millions and millions and millions of dollars to spend on content. And so they should do a big show for us. We drive traffic to the big show. And so I think it was more about, yes, of course, talking about our amazing content and brand integrations there, but also acknowledging the integrations that each customer wanted, the platforms each customer wanted, and what we're doing for each of them in a really kind of catered way versus such a one to many message.Damian Fowler (11:57):You mentioned content earlier. Are you seeing any particular trends now? Anything that's really driving interest from certain categories or marketers?Sarah Harms (12:06):So we have our Roku originals, and we do very well in kind of holiday and home as you can expect, but I think this year in Cannes, you won't be in a meeting like this without talking about sports. And so we have sports rights, yes, but again, the value of the operating system, we've built sports zones to help make sport discoverable and findable. I always use the example of my husband's great Uncle Joe, diehard Yankees fan, can't find a Yankees game because it might be on four different places in five days. And so how can Roku as an operating system help in that regard? And so I think Roku is invested a ton in our infrastructure of driving curation of sports, but also we're very invested in what we call challenger sports, so National women's soccer league volleyball, stuff like that where they have really these die hard fan bases and they just want to find it. We're the destination to help them.Damian Fowler (13:01):We keep hearing it's not just about mass reach anymore, it's really about how well the audience, and the better you understand them, the better this whole thing works for both the platform and the advertiser. How do you see that playing out right now?Sarah Harms (13:13):Yeah, and they're loyal. They're diehard. They're big spenders sometimes. And so you want to kind of associate with yourself with such a kind of amazing, loyal fan base that's just so passionate about the sport.Ilyse Liffreing (13:26):So we have some quick questions for you now. So first of all, you've led both creative and analytical teams. What is one timeless truth about great advertising that cuts across both sides?Sarah Harms (13:41):First of all, it's a very fun aspect of my job having both kind of the marketing team and the measurement and analytics team. Two very different personas, but brilliant in their own ways. And so much of my focus since being here is making sure they're working together versus kind of two ships in the night with their own functions because we certainly have such amazing data, so we should use that to speak to the marketplace in a smart way. And so I think that's been really fun. I think they're getting to know the other side of the house and the creative thinkers versus the analytical thinkers like me pushing them to work together has been very fun. And I think with that in mind, a data informed approach is key. And so that's what really drew me to Roku was that opportunity of just this amazing data set that we have that we can use to optimize, but also to tell our story in a more elegant way.Damian Fowler (14:33):Now since you joined Roku, is there a favorite data point or piece of feedback that's really stuck with you?Sarah Harms (14:38):Yeah, well, I think what's interesting about my job is I should have been informing people like myself about the value of Roku. Before the process started of being recruited, I had a pretty antiquated view, the Roku advertising offering. So that's something that in getting here and in going through that process I learned so much more. I think my favorite might be that any given month, we see a user come through our front door about 25 days a month. And so that is an advertising opportunity to message our amazing footprint. But we see that on average an individual app is seven, maybe eight times a month. And so if you think about that, the reach potential, but also just the consumer habit of using our devices and seeing the messaging from our brands, I think is so compelling and something that really we're massive as it relates to our OS and footprint. And so we've designed these beautiful experiences to really account for that.Ilyse Liffreing (15:36):Now, Roku really helped pioneer the modern CTV ad experience. Is there a moment that's made you step back and think, wow, look how far the medium and your team really has come?Sarah Harms (15:49):I think the fact that the Super Bowl was really such a success story for streaming, I think we never thought the Super Bowl would be at that level, but it was streamed and it really streamable and really without a hitch, I think we've seen some live streaming events and there were some issues. I thought it was very well done. We were happy to support it. We drove some amazing traffic to Tubi. And so I just think 10 years ago, we never thought that would be the case. And so that's just been a fun thing to think about that and the Olympics and the Olympic zone that we built, just really elegant experiences and just changing television has been fun.Damian Fowler (16:32):And that's it for this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (16:35):This show is produced by Molten Hart. Our theme is by Love and Caliber, and our associate producer is Sydney Cairns.Damian Fowler (16:41):And remember,Sarah Harms (16:43):A data informed approach is key. And so that's what really drew me to Roku.Damian Fowler (16:47):I'm Damian, and I'm we'll see you next time.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In 1982, director Steven Spielberg followed up Raiders of the Lost Ark with a family-centered feature about a young boy who meets an alien, based on his own childhood experience of creating an imaginary friend after his parents' divorce. With a budget of just over $10 million, Spielberg and screenwriter Melissa Mathison brought the alien to life with the help of Italian special effects master Carlo Rambaldi, with the music of John Williams hitting all the right notes. Add in some product placement from Reese's Pieces (let's not talk about that Atari video game) and a stellar young cast including Henry Thomas, Robert MacNaughton, and Drew Barrymore, and the flick was a hit. In fact, it surpassed Star Wars to become the highest-grossing film of all time, until Spielberg's own Jurassic Park broke the record in 1993. Much of the film feels iconic now, from William's score to the flying bikes. Critic Roger Ebert, in an essay he wrote in 2002 as a letter to his grandchildren about watching it with them, wrote of that moment: “I remember when I saw the movie at Cannes. Even the audience there, people who had seen thousands of movies, let out a whoop at that moment.” But despite the praise, it's worth remembering that Columbia Pictures put the film in turnaround, and M&Ms passed on the opportunity to feature their candy because they thought the film would scare children. So, over 40 years since its release, is E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial still worth phoning home about? Or is it better left in the back of the childhood closet?

Boutique hotels may look effortless on the outside, but behind the scenes they run on strategy, teamwork, and a relentless eye for detail. In this episode, Jennifer chats with Candace Berger, Director of Marketing at Wild Door, who represents two of the industry's remarkable hidden gems: Maison Hudson in New York and Maison Vi Laroi in Paris. Candace pulls back the curtain on what it truly takes to wow guests: from personalizing every stay and safeguarding client confidentiality to the nonstop hustle most people never see. You'll learn why crystal-clear communication between advisors and hoteliers matters, how honesty sets the tone for unforgettable experiences, and why heartfelt service always beats cookie-cutter luxury. If you've ever wanted an insider's look at how hotels craft stays that turn into stories, this episode has the secrets! About Candice Berger: Candice, a Taurus from the French Riviera, is based in Cannes and has spent the past 20 years in luxury hospitality crafting experiences where the smallest detail creates the biggest memory.

Bina Bhattacharya is a creative storyteller whose work I've been following for a while now. Her 2017 short film Wild Dances embraced music and cultural identity against the backdrop of Eurovision, while her section in the exemplary anthology film Here Out West, titled The Eternal Dance, is the story from that film that has left the deepest mark on me. Music plays a major role in Bina's filmmaking, and it's another prominent aspect of her feature length debut film From All Sides, with Georgia Anderson's Nina using music to support her passion for dance. This is just one slice of the narrative tapestry that Bina is working with in From All Sides, a drama which presents narratives we rarely see on Australian screens, let alone in global cinema. From the audacious opening which sees wife and husband, Anoushka (Monique Kalmar) and Pascal (Max Brown), engaging in a steamy bisexual foursome, to their domestic lives as parents to Nina and Clyde (Gavril Kumar), and then into the workplace where Anoushka navigates the politics of a support business owned by Toula (Rebekah Elmaloglou). While, on paper, it might seem like there's a lot going on within From All Sides, Bina writes the film like a slice of life. As you'll hear in the following interview, the lived-in perspective of From All Sides comes from Bina herself and her desire to see bisexual stories on screen alongside Australian stories told from a South Asian perspective. This interview was recorded ahead of From All Sides world premiere at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne, and its subsequent screening at the Queer Screen Film Fest. Queer Screen had previously taken From All Sides to the Marche Du Film in Cannes earlier in 2025 for their Queer Screen Goes to Cannes selection. This is a wide ranging interview with Bina, where we talk about what it means to present stories from Western Sydney on screen, what her creative journey was like to get to this feature film stage, the importance of seeing bisexual lives on screen, and much, much more.
