Finally, they talk about ‘The Naked Gun,' starring Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson, and use it as a springboard to have a conversation on why there are so few theatrical comedies being made and whether we'll get more going forward (38:06).

En este episodio conversamos sobre dos títulos que han dado que hablar: Materialists, la nueva película de Celine Song (directora de Past Lives), y la esperadísima The Fantastic Four de Marvel. Analizamos cómo el cine está abordando las relaciones humanas, el lujo y las dinámicas de poder desde nuevos ángulos, y nos preguntamos si el cine de superhéroes todavía tiene algo que ofrecer. 📣 Una de las frases que quedó resonando: “No es una comedia romántica. Es una comedia política disfrazada de comedia romántica, que pone la plata como el eje de la relación amorosa” Y sobre The Fantastic Four, debatimos por qué la elección de actores y el guion podría marcar un punto de inflexión… o una gran decepción. 🔊 Dale play para escucharlo completo y únete a la conversación.

For The New Yorker's series Takes, Carrie Brownstein—the co-creator of Sleater-Kinney and “Portlandia”—writes about an iconic rock-and-roll image. In the summer of 2003, the musician Chan Marshall, better known as Cat Power, was transitioning from an indie darling to a major rock artist, and the staff writer Hilton Als wrote a Profile of her in The New Yorker. Facing his piece was a full-page portrait of Marshall by the celebrated photographer Richard Avedon that puts her in the lineage of rock rebels of generations past. With a long ash dangling from her cigarette, a Bob Dylan T-shirt, and her jeans half unzipped, Cat Power “maybe doesn't give a shit about being in The New Yorker,” Brownstein thinks, “which I can't say is usually the vibe.” Avedon's image reminds Brownstein “to keep remembering … to keep going back to that place that feels sacred and special and uncynical.” Carrie Brownstein's Take on Richard Avedon's portrait of Cat Power appeared in the April 20, 2025, issue. Plus, audiences have been bemoaning the death of the romantic comedy for years, but the genre persists—albeit often in a different form from the screwballs of the nineteen-forties or the “chick flicks” of the eighties and nineties. On this episode from the Critics at Large podcast, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss their all-time favorite rom-coms and two new projects marketed as contemporary successors to the greats: Celine Song's “Materialists” and Lena Dunham's “Too Much.”

We discuss:How Past Lives explores the Asian diaspora experience, especially the tension and beauty of living between two cultures.The significance of Greta Lee's performance and her fear of speaking Korean, being filmed in 35mm film.The childhood relationship between Na Young and Hae Sung and how their sweet bond sets the foundation for the rest of the story.The scene of their final childhood goodbye on the stairs—symbolic of diverging life paths and emotional separation.The realism of immigration—what is gained and lost when families move to another country, and how that move changes identity and aspirations.The film's exploration of inyeon, the Korean concept of fate or connection, and how it plays out in both romantic and platonic relationships.The emotional Skype calls between Nora and Hae Sung in their twenties and how video calls ultimately weren't enough to keep them together.Arthur's perspective as Nora's husband and how he navigates feelings of inadequacy, jealousy, and his genuine interest in her Korean identity.The triangulated tension during the New York reunion—how Nora, Arthur, and Hae Sung's interactions reveal different types of love and connection.The power of silence and simple gestures, particularly in the final moments between Nora and Hae Sung.Why Nora cries at the end—mourning a love that never was, and the layers of her past that she can never reclaim.Whether Nora and Arthur's marriage is built on love, convenience, or shared experience—and how their synchronized steps at the end suggest a kind of unity.The cinematography's role in enhancing the film's emotional resonance, including scenes of the Brooklyn Bridge, ferry rides, and the iconic closing restaurant sequence.ReferencesGo-Stop - WikipediaYukgaejang - WikipediaKorean Americans - Wikipedia

On episode 294 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade is joined by AwardsWatch contributors Josh Parham and Jay Ledbetter to play the Director Stock Market Game. Two years ago, the AW podcast team talked about the state of modern movie stars and discussed who might be the future movie stars of films. Given how the trend of the film industry is leaning more towards IP driven films and becoming a director's medium, it's only right the team did a follow-up episode to talk about some of the bright talent from behind the camera, and who could become the premiere visionary directors that we will follow for years of releases to come. With this in mind, Ryan, Josh, and Jay put together a list of directors under the age of fifty who they believe have the potential to join the rank of some of the greatest filmmakers of the modern era of cinema. The list of names included a wide range of talent like Emerald Fennell, Damien Chazelle, Ryan Coogler, Ari Aster, Celine Song, Jordan Peele, The Daniels, The Safdie Brothers, and many more the team had to decide if they were going to buy, sell, or hold the stock of these directors. It was a lot of fun doing this episode, we hope you enjoy it. You can listen to The AwardsWatch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. This podcast runs 2h19m.

Episode 424: The Crew thinks Pedro Pascal is the clear choice in a love triangle while watching Celine Song's Materialists. Song's second feature as writer and director is just as layered, funny, heartbreaking, and joyous as her first film, Past Lives. She's able to weave all these emotions in a unique way that invites comparisons to James L Brooks and Woody Allen; her voice is that strong.

Love comes in many forms, a fact that's especially true when it plays out in the movies. On this week's show, Dan Webster, Nathan Weinbender, and Mary Pat Treuthart discuss two films that embody the emotion we know as love in entirely different ways. First up is Wes Anderson's latest, titled “The Phoenician Scheme.” Following that is Celine Song's second feature film, titled simply “Materialists.”

Celine Song's new MATERIALISTS feints at being a romcom, but it's far too interested in the economic realities and calculated compromise of modern dating for the label to be a comfortable fit; its romantic leanings are more in line with the works of Jane Austen and several cinematic adaptations thereof, as laid out in the “movie syllabus” Song made for her film and which inspired this pairing. But MATERIALISTS is more of a riff on Austen than a flat-out homage, and Song's spin on the material worked better for some than others on this panel. We get into that before bringing Austen back into the picture via Joe Wright's PRIDE & PREJUDICE to see how past speaks to present when it comes to the intersection of wealth and marriage, the art of matchmaking, nature as the realm of romance vs. the cold scrutiny of society, and the centuries-spanning fear of being “left on the shelf” as a single woman. Then in Your Next Picture Show we touch on some of the other films on Song's list and how they might have fit into this pairing as a triple feature.  Please share your thoughts about PRIDE & PREJUDICE, MATERIALISTS, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

The director Celine Song won over audiences and critics alike with her first feature film, “Past Lives,” the semi-autobiographical tale of a married Korean American woman meeting up with her former childhood sweetheart. Now Song is back with another story about love called “Materialists.” This time the main character is a matchmaker, a job that Song did briefly in her early 20s.On this episode of “Modern Love,” Song reads Louise Rafkin's Modern Love essay “My View From the Margins,” about a relationship columnist who can't figure out love in her own life. And Song tells us how neither falling in love at age 24 nor making a career of writing about love has brought her any closer to understanding it. “It's the one thing that makes me feel like a fool,” Song says.For more Modern Love, search for the show wherever you get your podcasts.

Celine Song's new not-quite-a-rom-com MATERIALISTS openly evokes Jane Austen in its focus on the rituals and codes of courtship, as well as its frankness about how one's net worth can shape their romantic prospects. That could have led us to any number of Austen adaptations, but few as instantly beguiling as Joe Wright's 2005 feature debut, PRIDE & PREJUDICE. So this week we're discussing what makes Wright's “muddy hem” take on the material stand out in a crowded field of Austen adaptations, whether the film's lush style complements or drowns out its substance, and why that hand flex made such a meme-able impression. And in Feedback,  a listener schools us on poetry and philosophy as it relates to the most opaque segment of I'M NOT THERE.
