Min 2: ANACONDA (3 estrellas) Anaconda, dirigida por Tom Gormican (El talento de Mr. C), es una comedia metacinematográfica que toma el título del clásico de terror noventero como excusa para construir una sátira deslenguada sobre Hollywood, la nostalgia y la absurda maquinaria del remake. Protagonizada por Paul Rudd y Jack Black, la película sigue a dos profesionales en horas bajas que aceptan participar en una delirante reimaginación de Anaconda, convencidos de que puede ser su última oportunidad para volver a estar en el mapa. Min 10: BOB ESPONJA: AVENTURA PIRATA (3 estrellas) Bob Esponja: Aventura Pirata, dirigida por Derek Drymon (veterano creativo del universo Bob Esponja desde sus orígenes televisivos), devuelve al personaje al largometraje con una aventura de gran escala que recupera el espíritu gamberro y surrealista que lo convirtió en icono generacional. Con las voces originales encabezadas por Tom Kenny, junto a Bill Fagerbakke, Rodger Bumpass y Clancy Brown, la película sitúa a Bob y sus inseparables amigos en una travesía marítima marcada por mapas imposibles, piratas extravagantes y una amenaza que pone en jaque el equilibrio de Fondo de Bikini. Min 15: FATHER MOTHER SISTER BROTHER (4 estrellas) 'Father Mother Sister Brother', escrita y dirigida por Jim Jarmusch (Paterson, Only Lovers Left Alive), es una obra episódica, minimalista y profundamente humana que articula tres historias independientes unidas por los vínculos familiares, la soledad y el paso del tiempo. Protagonizada por un reparto coral que incluye a Cate Blanchett, Adam Driver, Tom Waits, Mayim Bialik y Charlotte Rampling, la película se despliega en distintos lugares y tonos, manteniendo siempre el pulso contemplativo y el humor seco característico del cineasta. Jarmusch observa a sus personajes con distancia afectuosa, dejando que los silencios, los gestos mínimos y las conversaciones aparentemente intrascendentes revelen heridas emocionales y tensiones soterradas entre padres, madres, hermanos y hermanas que apenas saben comunicarse. Min 21: HOMO ARGENTUM (3 estrellas) Homo Argentum, dirigida por Mariano Cohn y Gastón Duprat (El ciudadano ilustre, Competencia oficial), es una sátira feroz y elegante que radiografía, a través del humor incómodo, las contradicciones morales y sociales de la Argentina contemporánea. Protagonizada por un camaleónico Guillermo Francella, la película se articula en episodios autónomos que retratan a distintos personajes unidos por una misma pulsión: el individualismo extremo, la picaresca elevada a norma y la supervivencia como único código ético. Cohn y Duprat utilizan el formato fragmentado para multiplicar puntos de vista y situaciones, construyendo un espejo deformante en el que la risa nace del reconocimiento y la incomodidad. Min 28: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON ROBERTO LANCHA A las puertas del nuevo año, casi sobre la campana, llega el turno de conocer la confesión cinéfila del director de Estamos de Cine. El periodista de Radio Castilla-La Mancha y crítico especializado, Roberto Lancha, desvela en pleno Filtro Liuchini por qué "El Padrino 1 y 2", entendidas como un todo, es el título que marcó su adoelscencia y, por extensión, su amor por el cine y por la comunicación vinculada al Séptimo Arte. Min 38: BSO ESPECIAL BSO EL PADRINO Y dado que la elección del director de Estamos de Cine enlaza con una de las bandas sonoras más celebradas de la historia del cine, la cita con Ángel Luque en la finca familiar de Los Corleone -en un entorno privilegiado de Long Island- se convierte en todo un homenaje musical a una de las mejores películas de todos los tiempos.

Un ragazzino, con suo padre e alcuni cacciatori, si trovano davanti a un fitto mistero natalizio, che affonda le radici nelle tradizioni nordiche, secondo le quali Babbo Natale non fosse animato propriamente da buone intenzioni nei confronti dei bambini.Ritenuto anche da Cate Blanchett uno dei migliori film a tema, questa pellicola è stata una vera e propria sorpresa che il sottoscritto vi consiglia di non lasciarvi scappare.Atmosfera assicurata, assieme a black humor, momenti di tensione e buoni sentimenti, regalano un'opera diversa dal solito, trascinante e davvero ben messa in scena. Ottimi i protagonisti e soprattutto i "vecchietti", che non dimenticherete facilmente.Recuperatelo immediatamente, se manca alle vostre visioni dei film delle feste!
This week we're excited to present a conversation from the 63rd New York Film Festival with Father Mother Sister Brother director Jim Jarmusch and cast members Adam Driver, Indya Moore, Luka Sabbat, Vicky Krieps, and Tom Waits. This conversation was moderated by NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. The NYFF63 Centerpiece selection, Father Mother Sister Brother will open at Film at Lincoln Center on December 24. Get tickets at filmlinc.org/jarmusch For years, Jim Jarmusch has written, directed, and produced delicate, character-driven films. Winner of the Venice Film Festival Golden Lion, Father Mother Sister Brother is a perceptive study in familial dynamics, a feature film carefully constructed in the form of a triptych. The three chapters all concern the relationships between adult children reconnecting or coming to terms with aging or lost parents, which take place in the present, and each in a different country. Siblings Jeff and Emily (played by Adam Driver and Mayim Bialik) check up on their hermetic father (played by Tom Waits) in rural New Jersey; sisters Lilith and Timothea (Vicky Krieps and Cate Blanchett) reunite with their guarded novelist mother (Charlotte Rampling) in Dublin; and twins Skye and Billy (Indya Moore and Luka Sabbat) return to their Paris apartment to address a family tragedy. Father Mother Sister Brother is a kind of anti-action film, its subtle and quiet style carefully constructed to allow small details to accumulate—almost like flowers being carefully placed in three delicate arrangements. The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.

Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman, marking my 106th episode of VideoFuzzy titled "NERD SHOW!" reporting the progress I've made in cataloging thousands of VHS transfers and digital recordings. The title comes from my Fuzzy Feature, episodes of The History Channel's "The Universe" that turned up in my cataloging efforts including "The Seven Wonders of The Solar System," "Extreme Energy," "Light Speed" and "Time Travel." In Cross Connections I highlight appearances by Savion Glover on The Colbert Report, Seth MacFarlane and Pamela Anderson at the Comedy Central Roast of David Hasselhoff. Also Dean Norris, Neil Grayston, René Auberjonois, Rhea Perlman, Bruno Campos, Tom Skerritt, Bob Gunton, Michael Rappaport, Robert Wisdom, Gregory Itzen, Jean Smart, John Michael Higgins and John Cena. I identify Robert Patrick of "Peacemaker" as a Golden Thread in my collection. Finally, I follow an appearance by Derek Hamilton in "Psych" to his appearance in mid-'90s FOX production "Strange Luck," which lead me on a journey that turned up 15 episodes of that show on a YouTube channel called "Videos and Memories" (https://www.youtube.com/@VideosandMemories-h9c) In my Classic Collection [VHS-to-DVD transfers] this set covered discs 1926-1950. I found interviews with photographer Doug Beasley and artist Andy DuCett on "Minnesota Original," shared to VideoFuzzy's Instagram. I note the passing of Jamaican artist Jimmy Cliff's passing, his having appeared on The Colbert Report archived to disc 1926. Also, comments on "Psych," "Tosh.0," "The Comedy Central Roast of David Hasselhoff," "Monty Python's Flying Circus," "Kids in the Hall" and their 2010-era effort "Death Takes a Holiday." In Book Reports, I note author and fellow podcaster Kemper Donovan's third installment in the ghostwriter mystery series "Sweet Spot" is now available for preorder, and talk about "The Woman in Cabin 10" by Ruth Ware, an author I learned of through his production with late, fondly remembered cohost Catherine Brobeck. In my Current Collection [direct to digital], spoiler-free comments on "Schitt's Creek," "Only Murders in the Building" and "Peacemaker" (second season opening sequence: https://youtu.be/xS11-GIemXY). Also P!nk's "I'm Not Dead" concert from 2007 and commentary on indy Canticle production "End of the Rope" (2023) Other movies I watched include "Coco," "Noises Off," "Cocaine Bear," "Let's Kill Ward's Wife," "Bros," "Spoiler Alert," "M3GAN," "The Fifth Element," "In Time," "Black Adam," "Sorry to Bother You," "Fritz the Cat," "Labyrinth," "The Dark Crystal," and may I HIGHLY recommend psychological spy thriller "Black Box" with Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett. Finally, I note with some irritation changes to tubi's presentation of classic "Doctor Who." In What I've Been Watching, watch for "Knives Out 3: Wake Up, Dead Man" on Netflix. Also, spoiler-free comments on "Wicked: For Good" and "Zootopia 2." And having found that YouTube channel, here's where I dig into "Strange Luck," the unlikely set of circumstances that led me to it, my astonishment at finding it at all and how enjoyable I found it to be after all these years. Also, a cheerful little coincidence that led me to a comment about coincidences themselves in an episode of the "All About Agatha" podcast's back catalog, also shared to VideoFuzzy's Instagram page. SPREADING THE WORD! "VideoFuzzy: The Video - Celebrating 100 Episodes!" is posted at https://youtu.be/eWfcCDiOZ2I. Please share as you're able to with anyone you feel might enjoy this production.

Nå er julen rett rundt hjørnet, men er alle like takknemlige for det? Og kanskje viktigst av alt – er julen en skeiv høytid? Tune in, og kanskje du får noen svar på disse spørsmålene – og flere!Denne uka er det... en form for julestemning i studio. Jo, det er jo det! Ho ho hoe? Melinda og Mar Valo har i det minste fått med seg en veldig juleglad gjest i studio, nemlig Carina, og hun ELSKER jul. Det er faktisk den tiden av året hun liker aller best! Men er Melinda og Mar Valo på samme bølgelengde som Carina, eller blir det en sledekollisjon? Du vet... fordi «slede» + «kjedekollisjon». Hehehe.Likte du det du leste nå? Da bør du i hvert fall høre på denne episoden, men det burde du jo uansett da, for hva er vel bedre enn å høre på Lobbyen?
In dieser Folge werfen wir einen wilden Kino-Mix auf den Tisch — von knallharten Straßenrealitäten bis zu Spionage-Thrill, psychoakustischem Horror und metaphysischem Mind-Game!Babo – Die Haftbefehl-Story (2025) — Deutsche Doku über den berüchtigten Rapper Haftbefehl. Wir diskutieren, ob dieses unverblümte Porträt zwischen Erfolg, Absturz und Identität mehr als nur ein Biopic ist — oder ob die Dokumentation uns mit Trauma-Romantisierung zurücklässt.Black Bag (2025) — Spionage-Thriller unter der Regie von Steven Soderbergh mit Cate Blanchett und Michael Fassbender: Geheimdienste, Verrat und moralische Grauzone — wir fragen: Wird „Black Bag“ zum intelligenten Agentenfilm für Erwachsene, oder driftet er in konventionellen Mainstream-Thrill ab? Spannung vs. Anspruch — alles drin.1408 (2007) — Klassiker mit John Cusack und Samuel L. Jackson, ein psychologischer Horrortrip im Spukhotel — wir checken: Wie gut hält der Psycho-Horror heute noch? Funktioniert der Druck, die Paranoia, das beklemmende Setting im Jahr 2025 noch? Und wird 1408 überschätzt oder zurecht verehrt?iHostage (2025) — niederländischer Thriller, inspiriert von wahren Ereignissen: Ein Bewaffneter stürmt einen Apple-Store mitten in Amsterdam, nimmt Geiseln und fordert ein sechs-stelliges Lösegeld in Kryptowährung. Der Film verfolgt das Drama aus verschiedenen Perspektiven — Täter, Geiseln und Polizei.The Materialists (2025) — Konzeptfilm irgendwo zwischen Philosophie & Drama: Wir schauen, ob „The Materialists“ den Spagat schafft zwischen intellektuellem Anspruch und erzählerischer Zugänglichkeit. Wird das philosophische Kino elegant ins Moderne übersetzt — oder versinkt es in der immergleichen Rom-Com?Hausaufgabe für nächste Woche: "After the Hunt" (Amazon Prime) #NapalmAmMorgen
If you are writing a villain's POV in your story, this episode is for you. Lydia Tar is a villain but she's also the protagonist of the story. Quite simply: villain + protagonist = anti-hero. The slow reveal of Tar's shadow is a masterclass in writing a villain POV. You could start off with an evil villain and maintain that line in your story, but it's much more compelling to watch the villain's camouflage and true nature being revealed over time. -M.

Madeline, Emilio, and Julian continue their seasonal cycle of Unorthodox Holiday Movies with a discussion about "Eyes Wide Shut," Stanley Kubrick's enigmatic final feature from 1999. Marking their first discussion about a Kubrick film, the trio take an appropriately late-at-night stroll journey through the many layers of EWS, including its touches of dream logic, commentary on class and wealth, and what the film has to say about observation and participation in potential acts of transgression, romantic and otherwise. Also along the way are nods to the film's admirable fake New York City, musician-specific considerations about gigs akin to one taken by character Nick Nightingale, and a shout-out to friend-of-the-show Jamie Homs, originally slated to be the guest for this episode.

The Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday that Northern Ireland's Christian-focused RE curriculum is unlawful. Since then, churches, politicians and schools there have been trying to make sense of the possible implications of that ruling, both for RE teaching and for the place of religion in schools more generally. Pope Leo has revealed his top four favourite films ahead of an event in the Vatican where he welcomed some Hollywood A-Listers: including Cate Blanchett, Viggo Mortensen and Monica Bellucci. Alissa Wilkinson, film critic at the New York Times, explores the Pope's passion for cinema. The UK's favourite school assembly hymn will be revealed today, as the winner of a public poll is announced on Songs of Praise, as part of The Big School Assembly Singalong. We speak to Becky Silver, songwriter of contemporary songs for schools and a former teacher, about the role of hymns in schools.Presenter: William Crawley. Producers: Katy Davies and Bara'atu Ibrahim.

Durante la pandemia aprendimos a oír los sonidos del encierro. Los que se escuchan con facilidad, y también esos pequeños, enervantes y repetitivos que no nos dejan dormir: el sonido de la soledad y la culpa. En “Tár” (2022) Cate Blanchett encarna a una directora de orquesta brillante y atormentada por esos ecos. Un retrato inquietante sobre la cancelación, el ego y ese encierro interior que persiste cuando el mundo ya volvió a salir.

Andrea and Jodie watched The Talented Mr. Ripley, the 1999 psychological thriller that features Jude Law at the height of his powers. We talk about what makes the casting work in a story that depends on believing Tom and Dickie's strange connection, the beauty of sun-drenched Italy on film, and Jude Law's perfect face (and terrible hat). There's also Cate Blanchett being effortlessly delightful, the realization that we maybe haven't given Matt Damon the credit he deserves, and Patricia Highsmith's stunning lifelong commitment to horrible opinions. Next week, we're talking Jennifer's Body, the horror-comedy revenge cult classic that deserved better the first time around.Recommended Reading:The Most Stylish Scammer: 20 Years of ‘The Talented Mr. Ripley'‘Visceral, sensual wonders': why The Talented Mr Ripley is my feelgood movieIf you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

I think BLACK BAG misses the mark but it's one of Melanie's favourites. So what happens when we disagree on whether, from a craft perspective, a story is working or not? Well, you'll have to tune in to this week's episode to find out. One thing I'll say is that this might be a film that is meant for super fans of the spy genre (i.e., Melanie) because it seems to assume a level of knowledge about the world of espionage that the average viewer (i.e., me) simply doesn't have.

From the Best of What On Earth – They can be noisy. And smelly. And, as Cate Blanchett (yes, Cate Blanchett!) complains, don't they just move “leaves from one place to another, only for them to be blown back again"? Gas-powered leaf blowers create a lot of opinions and a lot of emissions. Molly Segal takes us through why they're so particularly polluting and unhealthy. And, she explores the solutions underway — from political bans to incentives for switching to electric.

James Gunn has officially announced the story for the next Superman film, kicking off what he's calling The Superman Saga! On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, Kristian Harloff and Steph Sabraw break down what Gunn revealed, how it sets the tone for DC's future, and what fans can expect from this highly anticipated project. But that's not all—there's a ton of other big movie news to cover. Paramount is moving forward with Top Gun 3, new Star Trek and World War Z plans. We'll also dig into the latest James Bond casting rumors that have caused plenty of confusion. Plus, Cate Blanchett says she's open to working with David Fincher on a Squid Game project, and Universal has officially secured the Bourne rights in perpetuity.
"Summer Surprise" continues with...what's this? Another witch movie?? That's right, but this one has a hell of a pedigree. A family dark-fantasy romp from Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment, starring Jack Black and Cate Blanchett, and directed by...Eli Roth?? Huh. So how did the infamous filmmaker behind such extreme horror hits as Cabin Fever, Hostel, and Thanksgiving handle the opportunity to helm a more family-friendly adventure story based on the first book in a popular series of children's novels? Was this still an effective match for his twisted sensibilities, or a defective marriage of contrasting styles? Can Jack Black's unique charisma keep this clock ticking? How does it compare to the Goosebumps films of the same era, also starring Black? Is there such a thing as too many poop jokes? We discuss all this, and more!

Cate Blanchett (Elizabeth, The Aviator, Tár) is one of the most respected actors of our time. She's an on-screen chameleon who transforms into whatever role she plays, taking on whatever accent is required of her — so much so that she says it's easy to forget what she actually sounds like. At last year's Toronto International Film Festival, Cate sat down with Tom Power for a thoughtful conversation about two of her most recent projects (the unique political satire “Rumours” and the psychological thriller series “Disclaimer”), plus, her voice work.
In this edition of Study Break, we discuss the mass psychosis of Love Island USA, major couture debuts at Dior and Celine, the sauceless hypergamy parable of Celine Song's Materialists, Cate Blanchett's chilling epilogue cameo in Squid Game, and current Latina affairs from Katseye's “Gabriela” to the Sanchez-Bezos midlife nuptial extravaganza.
