A former folk music duo reunites at the request of an eccentric man living on a remote island. That sounds like it could possibly be the set-up for a horror movie, but The Ballad of Wallis Island is anything but. Listen as Ashley & Matt review this new indie film.
Three incredible artistic talents came together at the beginning of the millennium to create an astounding work of art: Tom Cruise, John Woo, and Limp Bizkit... together they produced MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 2 and we thank them every goddamn day of our lives.We're back to discuss M: I 2 with connoisseur of early 2000s cinema/vibes Katherine Vienneau. We've got the Chimera Virus, we've got Thandiwe Newton, we've got Dougray Scott oh my god we've got Dougray Scott. We've got masks galore, we've got sexual Tom Cruise having sexual sex, we've got at least a little bit of that classic John Woo doves and slo-mo and heroic bloodshed. We also pay our respects to Val Kilmer, Rest in Peace, and our disrespects to former friend of the show Paul Schrader, Rest in Piss. We talk about a very special Buckcherry appearance at Woodstock '99, and also recount our favourite Val Kilmer movies (TOP SECRET!, THE DOORS, THE SALTON SEA, and REAL GENIUS). Alex also tells us about the latest British comedy THE BALLAD OF WALLIS ISLAND which, unfortunately, sets up Ben to do sevearl Carey Mulligan impressions.Join us next week for MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III (Roman numerals this time, nice)Follow us @thefranchisees on Instagram and Twitter and email us at thefranchiseespod@gmail.com

The new film “The Ballad of Wallis Island” tells the story of Charles, an eccentric lottery winner who uses his money to hold a private concert on the remote Welsh island where he lives. The band he hires is his favourite group of all time: the fictional folk rock duo McGwyer Mortimer. The only problem is they haven't spoken in years — and the concert is just for Charles. British poet and comedian Tim Key stars as Charles and co-wrote the movie, which is based on a short film he made in 2007. He joins Tom Power to talk about the project and why it took 18 years to turn his short into a feature. Plus, he reveals how he persuaded Hollywood A-lister Carey Mulligan to get on board. If you like this conversation, listen to Tom's interview with director Bong Joon Ho on “Mickey 17.”
THE BALLAD OF WALLIS ISLAND stars Tim Key, Tom Basden and Carey Mulligan, with Basden and Key having written the script. So how did this idea of a folk duo being hired by a rich guy for a private show on his secluded island come about? Let's talk about it...
Now in theaters, "The Ballad of Wallis Island" is a feature film based on the 2007 award-winning short film created by the comic actors Tim Key and Tom Basden. With the addition of a new character, a former bandmate and lover played by Carey Mulligan, the expanded story set in a fictional remote place in the UK explores new dimensions of artist-fan relationships, creative integrity and nostalgia.

Se dice que los que hacemos habla más fuerte que todas nuestras palabras. No siempre es cierto, pero hay ocasiones en que lo único que podemos decir es con nuestros actos. Jesús dice que hay algo en lo que se reconocerá a sus discípulos, que es en su amor, los unos por los otros (Juan 13:35). Este capítulo comienza con el ejemplo de humillación del Señor lavando los píes a sus siervos (vv. 1-20). El que fuera guitarrista de Bob Dylan en la gira que hizo hace medio siglo, T-Bone Burnett, se ha convertido en uno de las figuras más importantes de Nashville, como productor y autor de bandas sonoras, pero continua haciendo canciones como esta de su último álbum, que que refleja su fe en el Rey Siervo, "Él descendió" (He Came Down 2024). Marcus Mumford es hijo de los responsables de la Comunidad de la Viña durante más de veinte años en Gran Bretaña e Irlanda. Pasó de dirigir la música de alabanza a ser una estrella de "rock" y casarse con una de las más populares actrices inglesas, Carey Mulligan, que conoció en un campamento evangélico. Ahora no se llama cristiano, pero hace todavía canciones que parecen oraciones, como "Bajo mis píes" (Below My Feet 2012): "Qué mire en lo que pueda servir y aprender con mis manos / cuando Jesús me diga que todo está bien". La entrega de Jesús contrasta con la traición de Judas (vv. 21-30). El líder del grupo The Verve, Richard Ashcroft, llevaba mucho tiempo flirteando con el cristianismo hasta que hizo pública su fe, al emprender su carrera en solitario. En la canción que hizo con el grupo sobre "Judas" en 2008, lucha con los sentimientos que nos llevan a negar a quien más queremos. Martin Scorsese ha hecho el año pasado un documental sobre las impresionantes películas de dos directores ingleses en los años 40 y 50, Powell y Pressburger. Una de las más sorprendentes es "Narciso negro" (1947), la historia de una comunidad de monjas anglicanas (sí, ¡también hay monjas anglicanas!), que bajo la dirección del personaje que interpreta Deborah Kerr, forman un convento en los Himalayas, donde tenía un rajá indio, el palacio de su harén. Viven la tensión entre un cínico inglés y un joven general fascinado por el cristianismo, que encarna el actor indio Sabu. José de Segovia comenta algunas escenas de la versión doblada con la música de fondo de la banda sonora original de Brian Easdale. Suena también la de Gregoire Hertzel para la película francesa sobre una monjas polacas embarazadas, al ser violadas por las tropas rusas, "Las inocentes" (2016). así como la de Anne Dudley para el film sobre la monja mística "Benedetta" (2021) del holandés Paul Verhoeven, criado por su madre en una iglesia pentecostal. "Sin amor, no eres nada", dice Larry Norman en su crítica al "Justo Rockero" (Righteous Rocker) en el primer álbum de la maravillosa trilogía que comenzó a grabar en Londres en 1972, "Sólo de visita en este planeta" (Only Visiting This Planet), calificado por la Biblioteca Nacional del Congreso estadounidense como "la obra clave de la historia del rock cristiano". Acabamos el programa con la invitación a unirse a la "Caravana del amor" (Caravan Of Love) de los hermanos Isley en 1985 y su pregunta de si "estás preparado", porque "Él viene".

Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy return after more than a week in Park City plus virtual screenings for this year's Sundance Film Festival and they are here to talk about 15 of their favorite films. They include a pair of body horror films about the terror of living happily ever after. There is also the horror of being a parent especially if you live next to the worst kind of Karen. Music plays a role in a lovely story about a washed-up folk singer and a lottery winner plus the heartbreaking tale of an artist taken away from us too quickly. There are more documentaries about the first deaf Oscar winner, teenagers who took on the environmental concerns of their community, the troubling legacy of To Catch a Predator and the consequences of delaying that colonoscopy. Audiences were treated to standout performances from Dylan O'Brien and the genuine discovery of the debut by a name to remember, Eva Victor.

With a PhD from the University of California Irvine, behavioral designer Ian Tingen has a range of capabilities: strategic planning, market research, management change, qualitative research, unconscious bias awareness training, behavioral science, and legal analysis, among others. As one of his clients said, "...when you need to make the impossible possible, work with Ian."

When Moss decides to keep the money, he finds himself in the crosshairs of the ruthless and relentless Chigurh, while Sheriff Bell struggles to keep up in a world spiraling beyond his control and comprehension.

William (Bill) DeMeritt (actor and writer) and James III (Black Men Can't Jump [In Hollywood] podcast) return to Flixwatcher to review Bill's choice Spaceman. Spaceman (2024) is a science fiction drama based on the novel Spaceman of Bohemia by Jaroslav Kalfař and directed by Johan (Chernobyl) Renck. It stars Adam Sandler as Jakub Procházka, a Czech astronaut six months into a space mission to investigate a mysterious cloud of dust and particles, called Chopra. Carey Mulligan is Lenka, Jakub's pregnant wife. Isabella Rossellini co stars as Commissioner Tuma, Jakub's commanding officer with Paul Dano who voices Hanuš, an extraterrestrial spider. Jakub is lonely and misses Lenka. Unbeknown to Jakub, Lenka has sent a message says she wants to leave him. The message is intercepted by Commissioner Tuma who rules that Jakub should not receive the message as it will worsen his mental health and compromise the mission. Days later a telepathic spider appears inside the spaceship and they discuss humanity. Spaceman is a curious film, by casting Sandler and Mulligan it instantly asks you to suspend belief that Jakub is Czech, its easier to believe in a space spider than the implied quirkiness of Jakub's existence in space. Even less easier to believe is the central romance. Recommendability scores for Spaceman were quite mediocre, despite there being a talking spider it is quite dull. Similar scores across the remaining categories give Spaceman an overall score of 3.69.

In a Q&A with The Hollywood Reporter, Fargo and Mad Men star Jon Hamm proclaimed himself a “comic book nerd” and mentioned he is still in talks with both heads of Marvel and DC for roles as well as confirmed that he passed on The Green Lantern saying it was one he “definitely didn't want to do.” Hamm even indicated he has a role selected at Marvel, if the studio does the storyline…and they say they will. The second trailer for The Penguin, the Colin Farrell-led spinoff series of Matt Reeves' The Batman, was released. It highlights more characters who will appear and indicates the Falcones, Gotham's first family of crime, will be at the center of the story. The show also features Salvatore Maroni, played by Clancy Brown, and is led by Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. showrunner Lauren LeFranc. Pixar's Inside Out 2 has jetted past Dune Part 2 to take the crown for top box office take of the year so far. Arthouse film The Bikeriders was highly marketed, but opened at third place with $10 million, and Russell Crowe's horror flick The Exorcism didn't even scrape the bottom of the barrel at a $2.43 million opening. At this point Blade isn't in purgatory…it is officially in development hell. Between the writer's and actor's strikes, actors, writers, and directors being let go and leaving the project, it seems almost impossible that Mahershala Ali's Blade will ever see the light of day. But Hollywood Reporter claims both Ali and Marvel boss Kevin Feige seem like they don't want to drive a stake through the movie, regardless of the lengthy development timeline, obvious loss of money, revolving door of talent, complete changes to the story, and more. M3GAN, the hit horror movie from James Wan's Atomic Monster and Jason Blum's Blumhouse, is getting a spinoff titled SOULM8TE, a thriller that expands the M3GAN universe and is set for release on January 2, 2026. Donald Sutherland, the beloved actor who starred in scores of films such as The Dirty Dozen, MASH, Klute, Animal House, Ordinary People, Pride & Prejudice, and The Hunger Games franchise and won an Emmy for Citizen X, died last Thursday in Miami after a long illness. He was 88. HBO has officially greenlit the first show under DC Studios titled Lanterns. The series has been given an eight episode straight-to-series order by HBO with Chris Mundy serving as showrunner and executive producer. Jonathan Majors is set to star in the revenge thriller Merciless, which is based on an original screenplay by Frank Hannah. Martin Villeneuve, the younger brother of filmmaker Denis Villeneuve, will direct. The film will mark Majors' first role since his third degree assault and harassment conviction earlier this year. Paramount has released the first trailer for Smile 2, the follow up to Parker Finn's 2022 horror hit. The film debuts in theaters on October 18. DC Comics pulled all unpublished cover artwork by artist Francesco Mattina after Adi Granov and Scott Williams accused him of using AI in recently released cover artwork. Williams is the inking partner of publisher and CCO, Jim Lee at DC. A Spaceballs sequel is in development at Amazon MGM Studios. Josh Gad is set to star, and will produce alongside Mel Brooks. Patrick Dempsey has joined the cast of Dexter: Original Sin as a series regular. He is set to portray Aaron Spencer, the Captain of Miami Metro Homicide who has a decades-long relationship with Christian Slater's Harry Morgan. Sources tell Deadline that Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan are in negotiations to star in Season 2 of the Netflix and A24 anthology series Beef. The roles Isaac and Mulligan would be playing were rumored to be for Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway, but that ultimately did not come to fruition. Apple Films has acquired the rights to The Wives, an original film produced by A24 and starring Jennifer Lawrence. The Wives is described as a murder mystery inspired by The Real Housewives franchise.

“Maestro,” from director Bradley Cooper, is a biopic of Leonard Bernstein. It stars Bradley Cooper and Carey Mulligan and is the first time a movie has ever been about the life of a musician. With a 79, it has the lowest Rotten Tomatoes score of any of the Best Picture noms and also carries an audience score of 59. “Maestro” runs two hours and nine minutes. It is nominated for seven Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Actor - Bradley Cooper, Best Actress - Carey Mulligan, Best Original Screenplay - Bradley Cooper and Josh Singer, Best Cinematography, Best Makeup and Hairstyling and Best Sound.
“Maestro,” about the legendary conductor and composer Leonard Bernstein, is nominated for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, as well as Best Actor for Bradley Cooper—who is not only the film's star but its director and co-writer. Cooper's movie focusses less on Bernstein's musical triumphs, as a dominant figure in classical music for decades, than on his extremely complicated personal life. Bernstein was married to the actress Felicia Montealegre, played in the film by Carey Mulligan, but lived as a proudly nonmonogamous bisexual. “I had no desire to make a bio-pic,” Cooper tells David Remnick, of a man whose life is so well documented. Despite his track record as a box-office draw and critical success, Cooper endured a string of rejections from major studios when he shopped around a movie about classical music, shot largely on black-and-white film. Academy nominations aside, for Cooper, the experience of getting to play Bernstein and actually conducting the London Symphony Orchestra—“the scariest thing I've ever done, hands down,” he tells David Remnick—was reward enough: he had been practicing conducting an orchestra since his early childhood. The segment originally broadcast on November 24, 2023.
With one extremely emotive stroke of the metaphorical podcast baton, we complete the magnum opus that is Best Picture Oscar Nominees 2023!

On the morning of November 14th, 1943, Leonard Bernstein, the talented 25-year-old assistant conductor of the New York Philharmonic, got a phone call saying he would at last be leading the respected orchestral group — in six hours, that afternoon, with no time to rehearse.The sudden thrust into the spotlight transformed Bernstein into a national celebrity. For almost five decades, the wunderkind would be at the forefront of American music, as a conductor, composer, virtuoso performer, writer, television personality and teacher.He would also help create the most important Broadway musicals of the mid-20th century — On The Town, Wonderful Town and West Side Story. These shows would not only spotlight the talents of its young creator. They would also spotlight the romance and rhythm of New York City.Bernstein is one of New York's most influential cultural figures. He spent most of his life in the city, and that's the focus of today's story – Leonard Bernstein's New York.The new film Maestro, starring Bradley Cooper and Carey Mulligan, focuses on Bernstein's personal story and intimate life. That specific angle is not our objective today – for the most part. We're looking at the relationship between the creator and his urban inspiration.

The Netflix film Maestro is an Old-Hollywood style biopic about the composer and conductor Leonard Bernstein. Bradley Cooper directed, co-wrote, and stars in the film as Bernstein. It examines Bernstein's life through the lens of his complicated marriage to his wife played by Carey Mulligan. And of course, there are many scenes in which we watch Cooper passionately conducting orchestras of both the work of classical composers as well as Bernstein's own music.Subscribe to Pop Culture Happy Hour Plus at plus.npr.org/happyhour, or donate to your local NPR station at donate.npr.org/happy
