Lots going on at the Cannes Film Market from casting of superstars to Irish directors.

As Mike Leigh's five-decade career takes centre stage at the Paris Cinémathèque for a retrospective, the British filmmaker speaks to Eve Jackson about 50 years of making movies, from the raw intensity of "Naked" and the jubilant optimism of "Happy-Go-Lucky", to historical storytelling in "Peterloo" and "Mr Turner". With accolades like the Palme d'Or for "Secrets & Lies" at the Cannes Film festival and the Golden Lion for "Vera Drake" at Venice, at 82 Leigh continues to illuminate humanity's complexities with his latest film "Hard Truths".

The beverage brand's former CMO, which holds drinks like Aperol, breaks down why events like Coachella, the US Open and Cannes Film Festival are so important to its marketing strategy. Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript  may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio.[00:00:00] Damian: I'm Damian Fowler [00:00:01] Ilyse: And I'm Ilyse Liffreing [00:00:02] Damian: And welcome to this edition of The Current Podcast. [00:00:05] Ilyse: This week, we're delighted to talk with Julka Villa, the former Global CMO of Campari Group. [00:00:11] Damian: Founded in 1860, Campari is a household name in the global spirits industry with a portfolio of over 50 brands across world markets. [00:00:20] We're talking familiar names like Aperol, Sky Vodka, Wild Turkey Bourbon, and Courvoisier. [00:00:27] Ilyse: Julka is a marketing veteran with over 25 years of experience in the alcoholic beverage and beauty industries. A specialist in consumer focused brands. [00:00:37] Damian: Julka is responsible for the marketing vision, strategy, and execution of the Campari Group's brands. [00:00:44] At the same time, she has a bird's eye view of the company's worldwide presence, coordinating teams based in Milan, Paris, and New York. [00:00:52] Ilyse: We started by asking her about how she balances the Campari legacy with keeping its brands relevant for today's [00:01:00] consumers. [00:01:02] Damian: So Campari has a rich heritage. The company is now 164 years old. How do you go about balancing its legacy, the preservation of its legacy while keeping the brand modern and relevant for today's consumers? [00:01:18] Julka: I think that, if we go back to the roots of the Campari brand, about being [00:01:23] bold, about being visionary about investing in arts, think about Europe, Italy in the second half of the 19th century. There were so, few brands really investing Campari was one of the first really interacting with artists [00:01:42] and designers and giving them the freedom to, the brand in the way they saw it. if you look at how we started, you how we moved forward along our, our history. You can see that, the [00:02:00] twenties and thirties of last we start cooperating with cinema, really asking the people, working in the industries and producing the movies, postcards, producing, you know, designs and drawings for us. [00:02:16] You can see that, fast forward, to the eighties. We start cooperating with one of the greatest filmmakers. In the world, Federico Fellini, that was a big fan of the Campari brand. He was drinking Campari and he decided to cooperate with us to produce an advertising for the brand. And Fellini was the first filmmaker we cooperated with. But then, we kept this partnership, for instance, with Paolo Sorrentino 2017. And I was personally You know, working with him, it was a fantastic experience to see an artist really bringing to life, the brand, [00:03:00] respecting the legacy, but at the same time, renovating, since you're asking me how a brand modern still loyal to its root, it was amazing to see how we could kept the daring, attitude of the brand alive. According to his own style.  [00:03:20] Ilyse: Wow,that is super cool. so is pop culture still as important to the brand even today?  [00:03:27] Julka: Absolutely. Absolutely. So, and this is so important for the Campari brand, but for many other brands part of our portfolio, just for you to know, we have more than 50 brands. in our portfolio, and if you'd like we can talk about some of them, but when it, comes to Campari, think about the fact that our partnership with arts, have been, more recently renovated in our, cooperation with the major film festivals, in the world. We, are [00:04:00] partners of the Cannes Film the Locarno, in Berlinale. weclosed the first, year of partnership with the Toronto Film that's definitely a modern way to the brand, extremely aspirational, but still to get in touch with so many consumers and possible advocates of the brand. One of the things we really care about is not just to communicate our brands, but to assure our consumer to consume our brands throughout the signature cocktails in the best way possible and definitely feel festival for us are a huge opportunity to provide liquid tulips, as we say, to our consumers current and future.  [00:04:47] Damian: What's interesting is with these different brands, you're sort of talking about how they're valued differently in different markets. that's very interesting to me. How do you know and prioritize [00:05:00] which brands work best in which countries?  [00:05:04] Julka: We have, well identified, what we call the global brands. The brands that should be built everywhere in the world. Of course step by step and respecting the life stages, the brand is in a specific geography. And definitely the one I mentioned so far, are global brands. And so also global priorities, for the company. And then, depending on the area of the world, the characteristics of the market and the consumers, each individual, operating company, can, compose, portfolio, to have the best performance on the market. But definitely there are priorities everybody to focus  [00:05:51] Damian: if you think about the United States, is there a sort of priority? [00:05:55] Julka: Yeah,  [00:05:56] Damian: Leading brand here. [00:05:58] Julka: definitely, [00:06:00] uh, the priority for the United our giant aperitif brands, such as Campari Aperol, Grand Manier, Wild Turkey, Espolon, and of course, the local team is really excited to rebuild the Courvoisier brand. always acquisition we have just finalized. [00:06:21] Damian: Yeah, each of those brands has its own kind of, whole kind of narrative around them, I imagine. But I wanted to ask you actually a little bit about, The current moment that we're in, which we're seeing a kind of a lot of debate around alcohol versus no alcohol consumption, particularly when it comes to like Gen Z demographics. I mean, how do you think about and navigate these perception shifts?  [00:06:47] Julka: That's a very that's a very interesting question. And of course, as you can imagine, we have been spending a lot of time and resources really to dig deep into these shift and [00:07:00] transformation in a way of our consumer ships. One thing that is not that evident to, to everybody is that differently from the past, there is a sort of coexistence of, people drinking alcoholic products and non alcoholic products, depending on the moment they are in, the people they are with, what they have to do the day after. [00:07:23] And this kind of consciousness and, control on what to choose is even stronger in younger consumers as you were mentioned so they are more conscious they don't they are not you know afraid to make a choice that could be out of  [00:07:43] their are pool of friends. Everybody's drinking something alcoholic There's no problem at all for one of them to say “Look tomorrow I have to wake up very early I have a very important day I prefer to, to opt for a choice, a non alcoholic choice.” So more than a counter position [00:08:00] today, we see the coexistence, of these kind of choices, which is quite interesting, honestly, also because it gives us the opportunity to be more, mindful and, intentional in developing also the part of our portfolio, which is non alcoholic. For instance, we have a product which is an extremely strong product in Italy and definitely in a phase of conquering of continental Europe is, the name of the product is Crodino and is definitely our non alcoholic, kind of spritz. is a product that was invented and launched in the market, in 1965. [00:08:39] So this is a little bit a testament, to the personality of the company, wanting really to push boundaries. And actually we are preparing the launch of these fantastic product also in the U S, that we plan for next year.  [00:08:54] Ilyse: So it sounds like Campari really anticipated this trend of non alcoholic [00:09:00] beverages in a sense.  [00:09:02] Julka: Yeah, that's, that's correct. That's correct.  [00:09:05] Damian: I'm just curious on that point, you know, as a marketer, you must get lots of data back in terms of like, who's drinking what, maybe by generation, maybe by geography even. I'm interested to know, do you kind of look at that in terms of strategizing and find the discrete markets?  [00:09:24] Julka: even if, with the passing of the years, what we, really is of people. So demographics are not, gender or age brackets are not the main elements we look for because what really counts. Today is the mindset and the attitude of people, for instance, if I think about a product like Aperol with these with its signature cocktail, Aperol can see across generations drinking this product and across age brackets is the mindset. [00:09:57] And you would be amazed how people approaching Aperol [00:10:00] Spritz, enjoying Aperol Spritz, they really have in common, the way they appreciate life and what they are looking for in that specific moment. Either they are, 25 or 60. So there are also, a number of cross generational, alcoholic beverage experiences, and so the way we look at data is really about the motivation and the attitude of people when they are about to make a choice.  [00:10:27] Ilyse: Yeah, that kind of, shift towards mindset over demographics probably helps a lot when it comes to just I guess prioritizing channels for the brand and where to reach those audiences because I know in a lot of the times like Millennials and Gen Zers are in like social media and usually that's not an option when it comes to alcohol brands, is, so is the brand finding other channels to be just as effective, in reaching that kind of mindset that it's [00:11:00] after. [00:11:00] Julka: when, I think a strong, distinctive characteristic Of our marketing and activation strategies, really investing very seriously in, in events, because definitely there's a lot of will among consumers of all ages, really to leave, events, in person really experience, on their, skin, much more than in the past. [00:11:24] and then we amplify, if you want, through social media, those events. But, a big part of our investment. is really, put on organizing, these kind of events. When we, when it comes to the U. S., think about Coachella, which is, more than a music festival, is a lifestyle festival, as we all know. [00:11:43] Think about the U. S. Open. uh, but also if we go on the other side of the world, in the APAC region, think about, The Australian Open, which is for us a, opportunity to reach so many consumers. about [00:12:00] hundreds of thousands live offering our best signature cocktail in our, fantastic lounger and then we can definitely amplify this content on a number of social media where. alcoholic beverage can, have a direct relationship, with their consumers. So for us, it's always a mix. we really believe that we have winning products, very straightforward drinking strategy, and that's why we care so these to life in real life for we don't see this business as happening just, just virtually. Definitely.  [00:12:42] How do you kind of maintain and sort of keep tabs, as it were, on people who are loyal to the brands that you market? [00:12:52] definitely over the yearsWe invested and we improved, our, CRM, capacity, so [00:13:00] throughout, social media and massively through events, we gather as much as possible information about our consumers so that, we can definitely keep them, up to date. On our, yearly, program, but also we can establish a more direct dialogue. [00:13:18] Sometimes we consult them, a part of them for new projects. we listen to them, ask them questions about, trends, want to know more and I think that, especially when it comes to a lab important. [00:13:39] Feel part of a feel, really listen to is something as important as enjoying your favorite, brand and your [00:13:50] Damian: And what's interesting to me is I was thinking about this because about, maybe 12 years ago, I have a friend from Venice who lives in New York and we went to a [00:14:00] restaurant and she ordered an Aperol and at that, point it wasn't very, nobody really knew much about it here. [00:14:06] And since then, of course, it's huge. It's like a probably one of the most popular, cocktails around. I was just at the U. S. Open in the summer and I could see, your your [00:14:16] plaza there with Aperol everywhere. I guess it was, there's a sponsor, a partnership  [00:14:20] Julka: Mm hmm.  [00:14:21] Damian: But my question is, how did you could you walk us through how you, built that awareness from, that moment, however many years ago when it wasn't such a big, obviously big in Venice, she said it was the Venetian drink. [00:14:34] So I was like, Oh, that's interesting. [00:14:39] Julka: yes, I am. 10, 12 years ago, not only in the U. S., but in many other places outside Europe, definitely it was not established. you know, staple it is to die. and at the very beginning, we really faced, some very basic, difficulties. I have to say, it was not easy, to start [00:15:00] talking about, a signature cocktail that, needed, a bottle of Prosecco to be open, to be prepared because. [00:15:07] You know, if you are familiar with sparkly wines, the problem with it is that if you open it and you use just a little part and then you keep the bottle for a couple of days, the carbonation will just, yes, go away. So it was really. a very precise, consistent, and stubborn work of education. [00:15:28] There's just one certainty about education, which is that, you know, when you started that you will never know when you will finish. And actually it's a never ending story in a way. So we, in the past we put, and we keep putting a lot of, effort and an investment in educating the trade the bartenders bar owners But also the final consumers because at the end if the final consumer knows [00:15:52] the best way to prepare an upper spritz They will be your advocate and it happened to me so many times in the past [00:16:00] when I was receiving at the table in upper spritz that was not preparing the way It should have been, I was going back to the bar and I was saying there's something wrong with my cocktail. [00:16:13] it's a double, a double direction  [00:16:16] Julka: Yeah,  [00:16:18] efforts. And, Also, a very important part is, what we call, the oil spill approach. What does it mean? We start with the city, a major city, we start with the specific neighbors. and key on trade outlets in this neighbor. [00:16:39] We build a relationship of partnership. We invest on these venues and we create the phenomenon of the cocktail and then we expand. So distribution and presence comes just [00:16:52] after having started trend with a very high level, of the serve in a smaller [00:17:00] number of venues. [00:17:01] This, has been the approach in the U. S. and in every other part of the world. You mentioned Venice, which is the place where the brand really, started being known and appreciated and, recognized as, the champion of aperitif. But the phenomenon of Aperol Spritz started in Venice, expanded to the Veneto region, which is the region of Venice, and then expanded Milan and from Milan to the rest of Italy. [00:17:28] So the oil spill approach, as we call it, has always been, front and center of the strategy, of, And it's building.  [00:17:38] Ilyse: So interesting. when you think of Campari brands, it also sorts of implies Like a level of sophistication. in a sense, are marketing just drinks or is it something more, I don't know, like lifestyle?  [00:17:53] Julka: definitely. I think that,our brands are starting from, The most important ones really [00:18:00] stand for a certain lifestyle. you think about campari, it really represents the Milan. And, the lifestyle of the city. If you, think about aperol, you're talking about a more democratic sort of brand, really more casual. welcome. and, So they, [00:18:21] reflect a way of living and today even more important. If you think about the trend of escapism, traveling without traveling. I need a break. I need a moment for myself of real enjoyment with my friends. [00:18:36] brands like this, and they are signature cocktail, let's say Aperol Spritz for Aperol, Negroni, for instance, for Campari makes you really full for half hour, one hour you're spending with your friends in another place. So they really stand for a way of living for a place and for a moment in life where you really, recharge your batteries and, [00:19:00] you dedicate really a true moment to yourself.  [00:19:03] Julka: And that's it for this edition of The Current Podcast. [00:19:05] Damian: We'll be back next week, so stay tuned. [00:19:08] Ilyse: The Current Podcast's theme is by Love Caliber. The current team includes Kat Vesce and Sydney Cairns. [00:19:15] Damian: Cairns. And remember,  [00:19:16] Julka: we really believe that we have winning products, and that's why we care so these to life we don't see this business as happening just virtually.  [00:19:29] Damian: I'm Damian. [00:19:30] Ilyse: I'm Ilyse. [00:19:30] Damian: And we'll see you next time.

About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is now the editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, a senior producer for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. Episode transcript Note: The following transcript was created by Headliner and may contain misspellings and other inaccuracies as it was generated automatically: Terry Lipshetz: Welcome, everyone, to another episode of Streamed & Screened, an entertainment podcast about movies and TV from Lee Enterprises. I'm Terry Lipshetz, managing editor of the national newsroom at Lee, and co-host of the program with Bruce Miller, editor of the Sioux City Journal and a longtime entertainment reporter and someone who has seen way more movies than I have this year. Way more. Why am I here? Bruce Miller: You're here because I need you. If you're not there, I. I'm just talking into the woods. I'll tell you, I tried to figure out how many movies I see in a year. Now this is just movies. This is not TV show movies or streaming or anything like that. And I figured one year, it was around 300. And so if you multiply that times 40 years, that's a lot of movies. And those are only ones that I would do for work purposes, not ones that I would go back. And wizard of Oz doesn't count in that, because you'd see that more than once. The Godfather. I've seen the Godfather so much, I could do the line, it's a strange year because we didn't know what was going to happen with the strikes. We didn't know if we would get things, if they would hold things, what would happen. And right now, at the end of the year, there is a plethora of, movies that are opening. It's your chance to really get after it. If you haven't looked at movies, now's your time. So, Terry, how about your year? How was your year? Terry Lipshetz: It's typical as a parent who's got a busy job and lots of kid, you know, we got to the movies. We saw some of the big ones. We saw Mario Brothers, which was a fun movie. Really enjoyed seeing that one. We went to see Barbie. Definitely an Oscar contender. This is not a doll movie, so love that one. We recently saw the Hunger Games prequel. We went to see Indiana Jones. I saw the flash, the family and I. We did see elemental. So we've gotten out, we've seen some movies. We've left the house. 2020 is in the rear view mirror, and we are back to theaters. We already have plans for our, Christmas break to go see Wonka. Bruce Miller: What guides the choices, do you say? Well, if we're taking the kids, it has to be kid friendly. Or do you say, kids, you're going to an r rated movie? I don't care. Terry Lipshetz: I don't want to say we're super strict, but we do like to look at. We'll check out, like rotten tomatoes. We'll check out common sense media. And we'll use our own best judgment to try to figure out what to go see. We don't allow them to see r rated movies yet. With the PG 13 movies, we look at them pretty closely. We try to see, okay, why is it pg 13? Is it just a few bad words? Is there nudity? I mean, usually PG 13 doesn't get nudity. You might get a butt in there every once in a while. And that's okay if you see a little. Everyone has a butt. We're all fine with. So that kind of thing is okay. If it gets a little too violent, we try to stay away from it. If it gets a little too sexual, we try to stay away from it. But we try to find movies that are appropriate for the family and we want them to see appropriate material for their age. Bruce Miller: So the profanity, we hear that at home, we're okay, we're good with that. Terry Lipshetz: They'll call me out on it. My girls basketball team, I coach 7th grade girls basketball and we were playing a game this weekend and I said the s word audibly during the. Because I thought one of our girls fouled out. So they were, coach, you just said the s word and you got to run a lap now. Bruce Miller: Oh, good. Terry Lipshetz: I owe them a lap in practice, probably. Bruce Miller: You better get on it. That's good. I'm glad they're holding you too. But I always use the line that if you're a writer, you've got to be able to know all the words and how to use them effectively. So that's why I swear I also don't have kids around me. So I'm good. Terry Lipshetz: You're good. Which was better? ‘Oppenheimer' or ‘Barbie' Bruce Miller: Okay, so we're going to look at the list. Did you do ten? Terry Lipshetz: I didn't come up because I felt like I didn't see enough of the really good movies. I would say that of all the films that I saw, I would probably rank Oppenheimer just a hair before Barbie. I thought Barbie was a great movie. I thought that it is deserving of any accolade it gets. I would like to somehow see Oppenheimer and Barbie somehow split out awards so their two creative geniuses, because that's what they are, our geniuses, can somehow share without taking away from each other. I don't want to see one of them just like clean sweep and then the other one gets left. So I think there's a way for a best director, best picture, best screenplay. We'll hand out statues to both. But I would just give Oppenheimer like my nudge for best picture. And that's even without yet seeing killers of the flower moon. Bruce Miller: And those are the two I had a, battle to figure. Is it Oppenheimer or is it killers of the flower moon? I'll tell you, I went back and forth on this because they're both too long, bottom line, too long. But who had justified me sitting longer of the two films? And I thought that the end of Killers of the Flower moon was a little padded. Whereas in Oppenheimer they had a trial. There was a moment there where you go, well, this is a whole new movie. This is something else I'm getting from this. And I thought that was very clever. They deserved their time. And so that gave me the little edge for Oppenheimer. So my number one film of the year is Oppenheimer. Number two is Killers of the Flower moon. You have Barbie as number two. Well, Barbie came in at three on my list. Terry Lipshetz: Okay. Bruce Miller: Because the thing with Barbie is, I think that she wasn't just toying, pardon the pun, toying with the concept of a doll and what it has meant over the years. It really was a tale about, now, don't be badmouthing young girls who are playing with barbies, because that's always been the narrative behind Barbie is that, oh, it's like some stupid doll. Know, is, perhaps a little more zoptic than you would give a girl. And that she was kind of dim and there were a lot of things there to unpack and she unpacked all of them. Greta Gerwig, looked at all those kind of angles about Barbie and still came away with the idea that here is a doll that is giving us hope that girls can do everything and that there are stumbling blocks in the road, but you have to figure out how to deal with them. it isn't just riding in your Malibu car with Ken by your side. And Ken was another whole thing. Know, Ken has been an accessory for the most part all these years. He's also in the picture. But Ken had his own little feelings as well. And you go, I kind of feel sorry for Ken. I really felt sorry for Alan. But this is a movie that gives you more than you're expecting. I think it is a great way to look at those kind of characters, especially when you're an adult. When you're a kid, it doesn't know. Barbie is just that character with too many clothes and she loses her shoes all the time. But as an adult, you realize that this was an impressionable character on young minds. And so I think the movie did a great job of bringing that to light. ‘Anatomy of a Fall' is a courtroom drama to watch In my number fourth spot, I have anatomy of a fall. And this is something that you probably haven't seen around much because it's a foreign language film, both in French and German and English. It's about an accident, or what you think is an accident. A young boy, he's about eleven, is blind, and he's walking his dog outside. And when he comes home, they realize that the dad is on the ground and dead. And what is behind this? Did he fall out of the window? Did his wife push him out the window? What is the story behind all this? It's a fascinating courtroom drama that lets you figure out, where do you sit? I happened to talk with Sandra Huller, who's the star of this. She plays the woman who's on trial for this, the mother wife. And she said, I don't go into this taking sides and saying that she's guilty or she's innocent of anything. I just want to play the emotions because it does, it shifts throughout the whole film. And it is a, fascinating look at a case where when you come to the end of it, you will debate with others what was the true story there? And it all comes down to the end where the young boy gets to testify, on the stand, and he talks about what he believes. It won the Cannes Film festival, palm door, award. And you can see why it's lasted. I mean, we're just getting it now. But if you get a chance to see this, please do look at it. Anatomy of a fall. Terry Lipshetz: Okay. Bruce Miller: Number five spot. I don't know if you saw this one or not, but the holdovers, I love the holdovers. Terry Lipshetz: It's on my list to see. And it's one that might, because it's rated r, so it's not one we. Bruce Miller: Were going to go take. Terry Lipshetz: Okay. But yeah, my wife and I have talked about it, wanting to go see it, and maybe we'll be able to do that over the break when my kids go spend some time with my mom for a little bit. Bruce Miller: We're storing you kids. Don't be like the von Eric brothers in the iron claw. Please do not force them into things. But, yeah, I think it was a fascinating look at how we create families. And families can come from the least likely places. It's a prep school in the 1970s where some people have to stay back because either their parents don't bring them home for the holidays. In colleges, there are a lot of international students who don't get to go home for the holidays because it's just too expensive. But this turns out there's one student who's stuck at this school with the teacher he really hates, who's kind of the designated watcher for any of these students, and then the cook, and they all have their own little issues. They all have their own little story, and they come together, and they become the greatest of friends. It's remarkable. Paul Giamatti, divine Joy Randolph, and Dominic Cessa, a newcomer who plays a student, and he's just marvelous in this. Directed by Alexander Payne. It's a film you should see. So that was at number five. At number six, I have poor things, and this is probably one you haven't seen yet, either, with Emma Stone as she's like a Frankenstein's monster. Willem Dafoe has done a surgery on her, and I don't want to tell you too much about that, but he has created this woman who is just learning life all over again. So she's very halting and stupid, and every year or every day, she learns, like, 100 words. I'm now paraphrasing because I don't have my notes on this. And so she becomes very educated about everything, about life, about people, about relationships, and she wants to approach it all on her own terms. And so when she gets to be older, there's talk of marriage, there's talk of other things, and it's just wild, wild, wild. It's black and white. Sometimes it's color, sometimes. Willem Dafoe is just unbelievable. I think he's great in this. Emma Stone is wonderful. And here's one you can't take the girls to because there is nudity. Just know that it's more adult than you'd ever thought it would be. But it's very creative, and I think that's what lands it on the list, because it is just so fascinatingly interesting. The story of Leonard Bernstein is available on Netflix Okay, so that's number six. Number seven, maestro. Again, this is one that's just now, getting the streaming services that's on Netflix. And it's the story of Leonard Bernstein, if you happen to remember him, if you're old enough like I am, to have seen him do those children's educational things about the symphony and the orchestra and all that, you know, the name. And he was one of the biggest conductors in the world, a composer. He wrote a number of huge musicals, but there was kind of a different man behind the scenes. And this looks at his relationship with his wife, Felicia. There's a lot there to unpack because she was that very supportive woman. But he also was a philandering husband, and he had relationships with men that, of course, they wouldn't say anything about back in the. So it was kind of a hidden life that he was leading. Bradley Cooper directed this, wrote this. I mean, he stars in it. He's everything about this. It's his showpiece, I think, really. It gives him a chance to show what he's able to do. He sounds like him, he looks like him. But it's not a chronological look at his life. It's like snippets. It's little things that give you a picture of what he's really all about. Harry Mulligan plays his wife, Felicia, and she is incredible, too. So this is one. It's on Netflix. You can watch it, see it. It's something that's really fascinating because it's more than just a, screen biography. Terry Lipshetz: I saw it pop up in my recommended recently, and I did add it to my list. So it is absolutely on my list of films to watch. ‘Super Mario Bros.' one of the fun movies to watch from 2023 Bruce Miller: Okay, now, before I get to numbers eight, nine, and ten, what else is. Terry Lipshetz: On your list from the standpoint of did I like it, did I see it and enjoy it? I was really impressed with Super Mario Brothers. It's not going to make anybody's top ten list. And it's one of those which my daughter wanted to go see it. I guess I'll go take you to a movies. And I sat there and I enjoyed it. And it was actually fun to watch. And it was worth it, being, a billion dollar worldwide film. And it was one of those films that I think got butts back into the theater, which it's been a long time since that's happened. So that movie I really enjoyed. I also thought that the prequel for the Hunger Games was a lot better than I expected. I had very low expectations on that film. Very low. I didn't mind the first of the trilogy. The second two after that were kind of, Do I really. Bruce Miller: But with this, do you know the characters? Are they like, young people, and then they grow up to become people in what we consider the classic Hunger games? Terry Lipshetz: Yeah, President Snow, he's the Donald Sutherland character from the movies. It's his younger self, and you kind of see how he turned into. Exactly. So from that standpoint, I think it was a real interesting thing to watch. I never read the books. I was never that interested. It was just one of those where, yeah, I'll go see it. It sounds like fun watching kids murder each other. Sure. Why not. Bruce Miller: Isn't that how it should be? Terry Lipshetz: Exactly. Bruce Miller: Shouldn't we just put the kids out there and make them just survive? Terry Lipshetz: That's it, right. Bruce Miller: Otherwise called winter, break. And you've got to try and figure out what to do with them because they'll drive you crazy. Terry Lipshetz: Exactly. ‘American Fiction' another great performance from Jeffrey Wright Bruce Miller: Okay. On my list, number eight, American Fiction. This is another new one that you'll see in theaters now. Cord Jefferson wrote this based on other material, but it's about a black author who is just incensed by the idea. Know, there are these people doing these ghetto like kind of books, plays, whatever, and they didn't live the life, but they see that it sells because there's a white audience out there that wants to read these kinds of things. And so he wonders, well, what if I wrote one of those? So he writes it under a pseudonym. As a result, he gets a lot of attention, has people looking for him to do interviews. And he's trying to stand the download because he doesn't want people to know that, wait a minute, I don't want this on my record, that I wrote this book because I think this book is trash. But yet he's still making money from it. So what's the balance? Know, Jeffrey Wright stars in the film and he's wonderful. I think it's one that we're going to see in the Oscar race. I really do, because it's so very interesting how they approach this subject, particularly now when people talk about being woke and all those kind of catchphrases they throw out there, but it attacks it head on and is willing to make, some choices. And I thought it was fascinating. Terry Lipshetz: Yeah. And Jeffrey Wright, I love Jeffrey Wright. He was in some of the more recent James Bond movies as, Felix Leiter, the CIA agent. And he also was in, the HBO series Westworld. And I thought those two roles, very difficult, challenging roles in their own way, and he nails those characters. So I am really looking forward to seeing American Fiction. Bruce Miller: He's been around forever, Broadway. He's done a lot of Broadway shows. I think he just had one last year. Now he's probably getting his big moment. Terry Lipshetz: Yeah. He's somebody that you've seen him before in so many different things, mostly in supporting roles. I think that's where Westworld really let him shine, because even though that was an ensemble cast, he was a primary character in there. Bruce Miller: Yeah, he is another one of those ones that can always get work because he can play so many different roles and so many different. I love him. I think he's really good. And he makes this film very unpredictable. Very unpredictable. You will not guess the ending of this film. I will wage your money on that one. ‘Air' tells the story of how Nike landed Michael Jordan Okay, number nine. Now, this is one that you should have seen and you didn't. Terry Lipshetz: It's been available through prime video forever. And I keep on going. It's in my list. I'm going to go watch it tonight. And then I fall asleep. Bruce Miller: You probably are wearing Nike tennis shoes. And then you can't even go see the movie. That's terrible. It's air in number nine. Air. And this is the story of how they did the deal for Michael Jordan's shoeline and what kind of maneuvering was done by the people at Nike and what they had to do to try and get him to buy into them. Now, what we don't realize in retrospect is that Nike was not a player back in the know. They wanted converse or they wanted Adidas, but they didn't want Nike. Nike was considered third. And so it becomes this kind of salesman's pitch to the Jordan family that you need to go with us. This is going to be something. And this is way before Michael Jordan was Michael Jordan. He was a college standout, but he wasn't Michael Jordan. Capitalized, bold faced, underlined all that. You see what they have to do, how they sell it, and, you see people that you recognize, but Michael Jordan's barely in the film. If he's in it, I bet it's ten minutes at best. And the character is always shown from the back of the head or the side. You don't see him doing anything except in footage where they show Michael Jordan actually playing basketball. And you go, oh, they did. And that logo that they use where he's jumping in the air, you see that? Where they got the inspiration. What's fun is seeing how his mother was such a good influence in this old thing. And she talks about, it's just a shoe until you put my son's foot in it. Then you see the guy who made the shoes and what a character. He just. It's fascinating. And my favorite one of all is the agent played by Chris Messina, who, again, you can't let the kids watch this because every other word starts with an f. But it is just fascinating to watch this. And, Matt Damon gets the speech of the year when he tells his story to the family of why they should go with. It's just, it's remarkable. You cheer because it's such a good, Look at all that. Terry Lipshetz: Well, now I got to go watch it this weekend. Bruce Miller: So, what do I have to do? I am pulling you movie by movie through the year, and then you won't go see these things. I want you to go to that. Terry Lipshetz: Have you seen my family calendar, Bruce? Have I shared that with you? Bruce Miller: Look, when you said you're coaching, that alone tells you. Right? Oh, this guy ain't the movies. Terry Lipshetz: I'm not going to the movies. Nope. Right. Exactly. Right. Well, what's closing out your list? Bruce Miller: It's called past lives. It's an Asian film that really. Oh, I don't want to spill it. They were friends when they were children, and then they reconnect later in life, and they wonder what their lives might have been like had they been together all along. And it's heartbreaking in parts, heartwarming in other parts, but it's, Greta Lee Tao, you are the actors. It's directed by Celine Song, and it's marvelous. It probably will be one of the ones that will be considered for best international film, but we have a lot of those in the category this year. And normally I don't put foreign films on my ten best list because we don't get a chance to see them all the time. Thanks to streaming, we're getting more of those films out there. And I think you'll find, too, that they have great stories to tell. It's just sometimes I have to do a lot of reading to be able to get to the story. Terry Lipshetz: Sure. Wow. Bruce Miller: So that's a top ten list. Oppenheimer, number one. Terry Lipshetz: Can't go wrong with Oppenheimer. Bruce Miller: Killers of the flower moon. Number two. Barbie. Number three. Anatomy of a fall. Number four. The holdovers. Number five. Four things. Number six, maestro. Number seven. American fiction, number eight. Air number nine. And past lives. Number ten. Terry Lipshetz: Okay, well, that is a list for those of you out there that are like me. Haven't gotten to enough movies this year. A lot to watch during the next couple of weeks as we close things out and then march further towards Oscar season. So we're going to wrap this episode next week. We're going to do our top ten TV shows. Bruce Miller: And that's even more difficult because there's so much tv. Terry Lipshetz: I promise you, Bruce, I will have more to offer in the next episode than what I brought to the table today. Bruce Miller: So we're going to throw you in. you're going to be playing in this one. I will be on the bench. Terry Lipshetz: So I have a lot of time. I can squeeze in a 30 minutes, 45 minutes show at the end of the night. No problem. So I have a lot to offer. So we'll be back again next week with another episode of streamed and screened.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

And there you have it. Just a taste of this episode of Dirty Poetry,using the word poetry very loosely, of course. Stay with me for allthe rest. The title of this episode of DirtyPoetry - Love and Sex With Robots is intended to commemorate theannual research conference of the same name, Love and Sex WithRobots. Recent advances in electromechanics, artificial intelligence,speech recognition technology, have changed the nature of ourrelationships to our non human, digital entities. This changingrelationship has raised an entirely new set of questions, that havein turn, created a whole new field of research. Every year,researchers and technologists come together in the month of Novemberto talk about these new questions at the annual Love and Sex WithRobots research conference. Some of them are entirely new questionsthat we never thought to ask before. Others are old questions thatnow have a newfound importance. Questions like, what does it mean togive and receive pleasure? And what balance do we as humans needbetween the two? Our next story examines just that question. Let'stake a listen. All Dolled Up written by Shawna HunterThat was All Dolled Up written by ShawnaHunter. Shawna Hunter is Canadian from Toronto. Her greatest passionis BDSM. Interrupted only by her passion for writing erotic shortstories. All Dolled Up is from the erotic short story anthology LoveTaps. Published 2020, in print and available at Dirty PoetsBookstore. We live in a time when digitalassistants have become ubiquitous. If you don't have a Siri orAlexa digital assistant, you probably know someone who does. Therehas been a wave of recent advances in artificial intelligence andspeech technology. Among other things, this will soon allow digitalentities to judge your mood from your vocal inflection and delivery,and to respond accordingly. Our digital assistants will soon becomefull fledged digital companions. Couple that with recent advances inrobotics and electromechanics, it becomes possible that for many ofus, our digital companions will be embodied as android companions.This raises all the questions of the human relationship to our nonhuman companions to a whole new level of importance. As fascinating as all these newdevelopments are, we should recognize that human erotic fascinationand sexual arousal with machines is not new. For example, Washingtonstate in the US, a man named Edward Smith says that he has had sexwith hundreds of automobiles. Yes, full copulatory sex with hundredsof automobiles, a few airplanes and even a helicopter. Not to beconcerned though, he has settled down to the quiet domestic life in acommitted, age appropriate relationship with a 1968 Volkswagen Beetlethat he calls the love of his life. And, there are a whole series ofother stories very much like that. Human sexual fascination withmachines has been in the popular culture for a long time. And asrecently as 2021, when the movie Titane received a controversialaward at the Cannes Film festival. Titane is in part, the story of awoman impregnated by a Cadillac. She lactates a high viscosity motoroil. And who can forget when Carmen Diaz had sex with a Ferrari inthe 2013 movie The Counselor written by Cormac McCarthy. Those of uswho go back far enough to remember 1996 will remember the blazinglyerotic movie, entitled “Crash” starring James Spader and HollyHunter. That also received a very controversial award at the CannesFilm Festival. The story that movie was based on comes from the 1973novel written by J. G. Ballard entitled

It's episode 100 of How I Got Hired! And I can't think of a better way to mark the occasion than share this conversation with you.My guest today is a very talented actor who has starred in hugely successful productions like the Homeland series, as well Hindi movies like The Lunchbox (screened at the Cannes Film festival), Airlift and more recently, Dasvi. We are going to chat with Nimrat Kaur and trace her career of nearly two decades.In this revealing chat, Nimrat talks about:- How Nimrat got accepted into a prestigious college and decided to leave it behind to pursue a career in acting, and how her family responded- How Nimrat started her career in print and TV ads, working in theater, and how she got her first big break, after many years of ups and downs, that changed her career trajectory.- Taking a different path from what is typically seen in Indian commercial cinema, which tends to be heavily stereotyped by performers' dancing and lip syncing, predictable scripts and women being in supporting roles. We also talk about how this decision to carve her own path played out pragmatically especially in the early days (bills to pay while still being authentic to who you are.)- How an actor like her defines success- Some cool and exciting projects she is currently working on (I can't wait for 2023 and watch Nimrat in Happy Teacher's Day!)Hope you enjoyed this conversation as much as I did!Follow Nimrat on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/nimratofficial/----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Liked this episode?

Jamie Barber is one of the UK's top restauranteurs having successfully run several boutique restaurants including Mayfair's Hush. Previous to this, he was a talented musician signed to George Michael's music label as well as a lawyer. Recently Jamie has teamed up with friend, ex-pop star and businesswoman Myleene Klass to offer ‘My Supper Hero' a food service delivered straight to your door that allows you to make tasty, healthy meals in 10 minutes. Jamie talks to Di and Kurt all about his career, including taking risks as well as how he managed his businesses throughout covid. KEY TAKEAWAYS  Jamie was in a band at university and it carried on into his legal career, he managed to convince his employers to send him to the Cannes Film festival and it was on the flight there he convinced George Michael to listen to his demo. 3 weeks later and he got a call, he was signed to George's label Aegean. At 27 Jamie was working as Roger Moore's lawyer and took a risk to offer to go into business with him, starting an amazing restaurant in Mayfair called Hush. After a lot of success stories, Jamie struggled when his Japanese-inspired Italian restaurant failed. He wasn't mentally prepared for this setback and it hit him hard. This is year is looking to be Hush's most successful year, Jamie attributes this to their ability to evolve whilst remaining consistent where it counts. It is a restaurant that has grown with him. My Supper Hero offers an alternative to takeaways, eating out and meal boxes. It's a premium product but at an affordable price.

The Marché du Film is an integral part of the Cannes Film Festival. Aside from screening some fantastic films, attending provides film producers with an excellent opportunity to meet and network with other industry pros. In this episode, film distribution executives Rob Deege, David Josh Lawrence, and Tom Malloy of Glasshouse Distribution provide a comprehensive guide to the market.  

This week's guest is Bunmi Akintonwa, Producer, Writer, Exec Producer and CEO of the little black book co (lbbc) a UK production and distribution company backed by Impact X Studios, a fund created by a group of inspirational black investors to support underrepresented entrepreneurs with potential to make a significant difference.The last couple of years has meant certain projects went hold, which also meant the income from them ceased, and the investors' money was impacted. Bunmi's writing partner died too, and so she was left trying to pick up the pieces and push for new opportunities. Always resilient and go-getting Bunmi started out as the life style  editor  of  the  Voice  and contributed  to  a number  of  other Youth  style  mags. Then she became a TV reporter on 2nd  series  of  a  cult  youth  series  called  Network  7. Everyone working there was young, hungry and up for doing whatever was needed to get the show in the road. It was all hands on deck and everyone had a chance to test their mettle.But when it came time to progress her career through the usual channels with a large broadcaster,  reflecting her experience, Bunmi came face to face with sexism and racism, first hand. She wasn't imagining it; the producer told her straight up, they'd fulfilled their quota for black women. Undaunted, she accepted another job, that took her Rome and her career bloomed until she got pregnant and found that the company didn't want women who were mothers in their midst. By the time she came back from maternity leave, her job had 'changed'.So out of the ashes she created her own TV production and Distribution company LBBC, and eventually returned to  the UK  armed  with  her  international  experience.  But the pandemic  put a stick in her spokes. Only now she knew that her work was bigger than anything that could get in her way. Black Lives Matter was the catalyst to start working to help diversify organisations especially within TV industry. After realising the extent of underrepresentation at Cannes Film & TV Festival she founded & became a jury member of DiversifyTV Excellence Awards in partnership with MipCom. She defines courage as taking  risks , pushing boundaries, pushing open doors  (for  yourself or others) having them slammed  in your face, getting  up  again  taking  risks  again. She believes that when things aren't working you've to rip it all up and start again.Thank you so much Bunmi for being a driving force for the underrepresented and for producing sustainable and inclusive content that leads the way for a more equal playing field across the board.Thanks also for showing us that even in the zig zag of life, when we have our eye on the end goal, we can get to where we want to be.You can find out more about Bunmi on http://lbbc.eu/ and follow her on Linkedin @Bunmi AkintonwaJoin Lou on Linkedin, or sign up to her mailing list for her newsletter and a free podcast guesting guide.

Film critic Jason Solomons brings a touch of glamour to tonight's proceedings with his report from this year's Cannes Film festival which opened this week. Tove Jansson was the Finnish creator of the Moomins, stories much loved by children (and adults) the world over. A new film, Tove, tells the story of her extraordinary life in post-war Helsinki, the ambivalence she felt towards the success of the Moomins, and how her ideas about freedom were challenged when she fell in love with theatre director Vivica Bandler. The film's director, Zaida Bergroth, talks about the choices she made in telling the story of this iconic author and artist. Welsh culture that is ancient, and modern: Catrin Finch, commissioned by the Llangollen Eisteddfod, plays the harp and is working with a choir - but not just male voices, a choir of singing refugees and asylum seekers. A beat boxer is involved, too. Meanwhile the artist Luke Jerram has turned to another Welsh tradition, throwing a huge, beautiful patchwork quilt over the town bridge.

He's one of the nine critics to vote on the Screen International's jury award at the Cannes Film festival. Anton's the author of a dozen books on film and directors (Dogma 95, Jarmusch, Roy Anderson and other auteurs), as well as the editor-in-chief of the bi-monthly 'The Art of the Film' magazine. The man is well-read and well-watched. So I grilled him on the trials and tribulations of the critic's job, the best way to enjoy a film festival and why does he have this ONE STRANGE CHOICE OF A FILM in his top-10 list of the greatest films ever shot.

Multi-Award Winning Young Turkish Woman Filmmaker Dreamed As A Child In Istanbul To One Day Come To Hollywood And Make Motion Pictures Hollywood, California - - One day long ago a girl named Ozlem Altingoz wandered on to a Turkish television show set in Istanbul where she was warmly welcomed by the cast and crew. She watched the actors and the company work tirelessly until the sun set. That day, she says, was the wellspring of her journey to come to Hollywood and learn all the aspects of filmmaking, particularly directing. Now, years later, award-winning director Ozlem has premiered her two short, distinctive, horror films at such high-profile film festivals as the prestigious Cannes Film festival (Festival De Cannes) to Spain’s Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival, considered the premiere horror film festival the world over. Ozlem has given new meaning to the horror film genre known as “Slasher Films.” “I am a horror filmmaker…that is where my journey has taken me,” asserted Ozlem, who, as a child in Turkey, watched such films as Rosemary’s Baby, The Exorcist and Psycho. “I want to create horror films my audiences will remember forever and ever…not films that will remind them of something they have already experienced on the screen.” Director-producer-author Shane Stanley (The Grid Iron Gang with Dwayne Johnson, Showtime’s Mistrust with Jane Seymour, the just released feature theatrical film, The Untold Story with Nia Peeples and the author of What You Don't Learn in Film School) had this to say about Ms. Altingoz’s award- winner, Birth: “Ozlem Altingoz has taken the psych-thriller to a whole new level. If you don't know who she is, set your watch, you will soon...very soon." David Armstrong, Director of Photography (Saw Series) commented: “Stunning opening credits! It’s amazing that you got all that story in a short film. Well edited, great story.” Scott Lobdell, Writer (Happy Death Day): “Looks so creepy, high tension.” -more- Ozlem Altingoz-2 Her award-winning film (25 film awards) Birth (https://ozlemaltingoz.com/films/birth/) and earlier Daughter of the Lake (https://ozlemaltingoz.com/films/daughter-of-the-lake/) are multi-award winners. Birth is a jaw dropping, horrific story that examines how far one man, whose life at birth was spared in a demonic deal, would go to save his family from the price of his own soul. Lake, earning already some 50 film awards, tells the tale of a group of friends who stumble upon a deadly secret

Bill Lustig is an American filmmaker, director, producer - perhaps best known as the director of the New York exploitation slasher classic, Maniac, starring Joe Spinelli with effects by Tom Savini (who actually is in the film and has a great moment where he gets his head blown off - the scene may rival Scanners as the best exploding head sequence in cinema history). Maniac was Bill's first movie and the story behind the making of it was full of timeless lessons in independent filmmaking. There's a particularly great story about how he and his team premiered Maniac at the Cannes Film Festival (if you can picture Maniac playing at Cannes).   Fun fact: Bill is the nephew of Jake LaMotta, the boxer who Robert De Niro played in Raging Bull. Also, Bill was originally supposed to direct True Romance, as he was Quentin Tarantino's first choice as a director - Bill even wrote the ending. Another fun fact is that before horror, Bill started his career in hardcore pornography, and was heavily immersed in the grindhouse culture of New York city's famous 42nd street - we talk about all of this and so much more on today's episode of the Nick Taylor Horror Show! Top pieces of insight from William Lustig: Get the train moving - When pitching a movie, it's critical to remember that there are thousands of other people with scripts and ideas, just as good, if not better than yours. What separates those who get funding versus those who don't, is momentum and tangibility. If all you have is a script or an idea for a movie, in the eyes of investors, you pretty much got nothing. For producers to be interested, they need to know you are capable of bringing this vision to life and seeing it through to completion, which is why they look for signs that the project is moving forward. The metaphor of getting the train out of the station is a good one, because to wait for everything to be perfect and for producers to jump on board before you go into production is a fool's errand because the sheer act of going into production indicates to producers that the movie is real, and that you're a worthwhile investment because you can make things happen. Movement is critical in this regard, and frequently, directors will pitch producers who say no at first, but jump back on board when the movie further in development - so the other part of this is no might not always mean no, it could mean, not now. Don't listen to Bill, never give up! I gotta disagree with a piece of advice Bill gave and that is that if you're not making movies by 30, you should give up. Let's examine some case studies: Wes craven was 34 when he made Last House on the Left; Ridley Scott was 40 when he made his first major film, The Duelists, and then went on to do Alien; Mick Garris was 33 when he first began screenwriting and didn't get to direct until he was 37, with Critters 2; Terry Gilliam was 35 when he made his first feature; Alejandro González iñárritu was 37 when he did Amores Perros; Ang Lee was 38, when he did his first film; Sam Mendes was 34 when he made American Beauty. The list goes on, point being: it's never too late. Never underestimate the power of showmanship: When Bill was screening Maniac at the Cannes Film festival, one of his reps insisted that it be shown at the smallest theatre available. This seems entirely contrarian, BUT, the purpose of the small screen was to ensure that the movie would sell out and there would be lines around the block creating a visual spectacle and demand for the movie. This gets attention at a film auction circus like the Cannes Film festival - where it's imperative that you make a splash to be noticed. Furthermore, he gave most of the tickets away to local high school and college kids to boost the youthful energy of the audience so the producers and investors in the theatre would experience their energetic reactions and make them way more interested in acquiring the film. These are brilliant strategies, and really underscore the importance of the atmosphere that you must create around your film at all times. What it taught me, was that directing doesn't stop when the movie is done and you shout: ‘that's a wrap.' You have to be a director on and off set and constantly create a spectacle. As a result of this stunt, Bill and his team walked out of Cannes with a major deal for Maniac which set him up for a successful career in filmmaking.
