The second installment of Fresh Immigrants, Rotten Fascists focuses on Adenoid Hynkel - the familiar looking authoritarian played by Charlie Chaplin in THE GREAT DICTATOR.

My Rock Moment had the extraordinary privilege of catching up with Blondie Chaplin, a true legend whose musical journey reads like a who's-who of rock history. Born in Durban, South Africa, he first made waves as a teen with The Flames, eventually catching the attention of Carl Wilson, who helped bring him into the Beach Boys family in the early 1970s. During our conversation, Blondie took me back to that pivotal era - remembering how he and Ricky Fataar joined the group following Bruce Johnston's departure and Dennis Wilson's hand injury. It was a time when the band sought new identity and creative depth, and Blondie's soulful presence helped shape that fresh direction. We delved into the making of "Sail On, Sailor," the standout track from Holland (1973), which Blondie famously sang lead on. He shared how the song wasn't just another composition. Recorded in a barn outside of Amsterdam and finished at Village Recorders in L.A., Blondie recalled how Carl and the rest of the band coaxed him into singing it, and how the performance eventually anchored the album. Then we turned to his time with The Rolling Stones, where from 1997 onward, Blondie became an invaluable collaborator - touring, recording, and contributing acoustic guitar, percussion, and backing vocals for around ten years. He reflects on what it was like stepping into that legendary circle. It was one of those interviews that reminds you: some musicians don't just witness rock history - they help write it.

La Suisse, une terre de refuge pour les célébrités. On ne compte plus le nombre de stars qui ont séjourné dans ce pays et celles qui y résident encore aujourd'hui. Les raisons de ces exils sont variées : fiscalité, climat, paysage, situation géographique, mais avant tout la tranquillité. La discrétion des Helvètes, valeur érigée en vertu convient très bien à ces résidents qui souffrent parfois de leur trop plein de notoriété. En 1952, c'est une star mondiale qui décide de poser sa canne et son chapeau dans le canton de Vaud. Charlie Chaplin vient de se voir retirer son visa de résident aux Etats-Unis pour cause de sympathie avec les communistes. La chasse aux sorcières menée par le sénateur McCarthy et le FBI d'Edgard Hoover à Hollywood propulsent l'artiste en tête d'affiche du dénigrement à la sauce guerre froide. Eugene, le fils de Chaplin, né en Suisse peu de temps après son arrivée, nous reçoit dans la maison familiale de Corsier-sur-Vevey, devenue musée en 2016. Olivia Baliguet est responsable de la communication du Chaplin's World, l'ancien maison des Chaplin devenue musée. https://www.chaplinsworld.com/

In this episode of Grow a Small Business, host Troy Trewin interviews Suzanna Chaplin, founder of ESB Connect, shares her incredible journey from starting an email marketing business with her father to building a powerhouse with over 17 million email addresses and £1.5M in revenue. She opens up about overcoming £250K in debt, navigating the emotional toll of a family business, and pioneering the UK's first email retargeting tech that matches anonymous site visitors with emails. Suzanna also dives into scaling with profitability, building a resilient team, and why owning your audience is more critical than ever. Her story is packed with real challenges, bold moves, and powerful insights for any business owner chasing sustainable growth. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Suzanna Chaplin, the hardest thing in growing a small business is navigating the emotional rollercoaster—the constant ups and downs. One day everything feels great with strong sales and a happy team, and the next day, key clients might pull budgets or team members might resign. It's the ability to stay consistent, keep showing up every day, and push through the tough times that truly tests a business owner's resilience. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Suzanna Chaplin's favorite business books that have helped her the most include “Winners” by Alastair Campbell for its insight into what makes successful people tick, and “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen Covey, which she values for its lessons on communication and understanding people's core motivations. She also mentioned “Good to Great” by Jim Collins and books by Adam Grant as powerful resources that have shaped her business thinking. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Suzanna Chaplin recommends several powerful podcasts and online resources to help grow a small business, including How I Built This by Guy Raz for inspiring founder stories, Diary of a CEO for raw and insightful conversations (especially earlier episodes), and Sweat Equity by the founders of Hype for practical branding tips. She also suggests Founders for deep dives into entrepreneurial mindsets and The Spark by Emma Grede for valuable perspectives from a female founder's lens. Suzanna emphasizes that podcasts, books, and mentorship have been key to her learning, offering real-world solutions to everyday business challenges. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Suzanna Chaplin recommends Xero as a must-have tool to grow a small business, emphasizing the importance of knowing your numbers and staying on top of cash flow. While it may seem basic, having clear visibility into your finances is crucial for making smart decisions. She also highlights the value of implementing a solid CRM system as the business scales, helping manage team workflows, forecasting, and client communication more efficiently. These tools, she says, are essential for building a strong operational foundation. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Suzanna Chaplin's advice to herself on day one of starting out in business would be: “It's going to be okay—keep going and stay consistent.” She emphasizes the importance of trusting the journey, making quicker decisions when needed (especially around hiring), and not holding onto people or situations that no longer serve the business. She'd also remind herself to stay organized, believe in her instincts, and understand that the hard days will pass—and every small step forward adds up to big progress.

El vals de la viuda alegre suena varias veces en La sombra de una duda, la pantalla se llena de danzantes dando vueltas y vueltas. La amenaza avisa mediante un telegrama a la familia, un tío adorado por su hermana y su sobrina, le tienen en un pedestal, vuelve a la pacífica villa de Santa Rosa. La fascinación que siente el personaje de Theresa Wright por su tío, excepcional Joseph Cotten, irá cambiando al miedo, a medida que va descubriendo la verdadera esencia de su pariente, y el chantaje posterior del aparente ciudadano ejemplar. Antes de albergar la más mínima sospecha, ya quiere descubrir los secretos de su apuesto y adinerado tío. El error de Charlie radica en confiar demasiado en la inocencia de la joven, la admiración a su persona de casi todas las mujeres le ciega. Charlie irá enseñando los dientes, dejando pruebas de su patología criminal, un periódico con recortes, un anillo con unas iniciales, y ciertos soliloquios en la cena con un odio cerval a las señoras viudas, y a la humanidad en general. En un film de su primera etapa americana, Hitchcock retrata la vida provinciana con la ayuda de la pluma del dramaturgo Thornton Wilder (Sinfonía de la vida). Especialista en narrar la vida cotidiana de un pueblo donde todos se conocen, con el mismo guardia de tráfico, la misma biblioteca, el mismo bar. El naturalismo de esa ciudad pacífica se combina con planos expresionistas, picados de la escalera, desde la ventana, y primeros planos del rostro atractivo y perturbador de Cotten. En concreto recuerdo un plano a media distancia de Cotten en la entrada del porche, mira a su potencial víctima desde lejos con una pose de monstruo voyeur, similar a la del Michael Myers de la saga de Carpenter. El terror ha llegado con el aviso de un telegrama, del mismo modo que en la siguiente “Náufragos” el maestro nos mantendrá en vilo en una barcaza a la deriva, en el océano calmo de Santa Rosa también nadan tiburones sedientos de sangre. Asesinos de viudas hay más de uno en el cine, otro memorable es Monsieur Verdoux, el Chaplin de excelentes modales, el Barba Azul de Hitchcock se nos presenta tumbado en la cama de una casa de huéspedes, pensativo, con fajos de billetes alrededor, mientras dos detectives le buscan. La esencia del mal asoma al retorcer sus manos en ademán de estrangular a la sobrina cuando la observa desde una ventana, en otro momento en el pub del pueblo, sigue con sus digresiones abyectas contra el mundo, el mundo es una pocilga, lo peor es que a Charlie argumentos no le faltan para constatarlo, aún no había terminado el conflicto más mortífero del siglo XX. Esta noche leemos el periódico antes que Charlie lo recorte… Raúl Gallego, Zacarías Cotán y David Velázquez.

The spotlight has certainly taken its toll on Robert Downey Jr. over the years. But much like his beloved MCU character Tony Stark, there's an undeniably powerful force inside Robert that keeps him pushing forward. When we sat down over iced coffees, we found ourselves unpacking the fraught relationship Robert had with his father — the experimental, countercultural filmmaker Robert Downey Sr. — whose unconventional lifestyle created lasting ripples throughout the family. Their shared documentary, “Sr.”, stands as a powerful testament to the healing they found. Plus, we talk about sobriety, the belief it took to become Iron Man, and the full-circle moments spanning the decades since we first crossed paths on the set of Chaplin.

Vale a pena voltar a ouvir este episódio, originalmente publicado em 31 de julho de 2019, Nessa altura, escrevi este texto na sinopse do podcast: Há muito que queria pegar neste tema no podcast, porque o acho fascinante e misterioso ao mesmo tempo. O humor está presente em muito do que fazemos - mas não em tudo - e pode ser extremamente básico mas também desafiantemente complexo. Perceber o que nos faz rir e, mais importante, por que nos rimos é algo em tenho pensado e esta foi uma óptima oportunidade para falar com alguém que não só é provavelmente o humorista português mais marcante do século XXI mas também uma espécie de filósofo do humor e um pensador de direito próprio sobre estes temas. O pretexto para a conversa foi um pequeno, mas muito interessante livro, que o Ricardo publicou há uns anos e que ele define como “uma espécie de manual de escrita humorística”. Este episódio é, na verdade, apenas a primeira parte da nossa conversa, porque gravámos em dois dias diferentes, o que permitiu ter uma conversa mais alargada do que o normal, em que pudemos discutir uma série de temas em profundidade. Durante este episódio, começámos por discutir a resposta a uma pergunta simples mas que continua a ser misteriosa: por que rimos? Falámos de um livro muito interessante de Matthew Hurley, Daniel Dennett (Inside Jokes), que tenta dar uma explicação evolutiva para a nossa capacidade para achar graça e que vai muito ao encontro da visão que o Ricardo expõe no livro.” Para compreender este fenómeno do humor, passámos também pelas chamadas ‘Teorias do Humor’, que deste a antiguidade tentam explicar este fenómeno. Um tema inevitável que também discutimos é o número crescente de pessoas ferozmente criticadas, despedidas do trabalho ou mesmo processadas por mandar uma piada. Isto resulta do facto de o humor ser hoje visto, em alguns campos, como uma fonte de poder e um meio potencial de agressão. Discutimos, então, isso mesmo, se o humor pode ser agressão, falámos de liberdade de expressão e do papel do humor nas relações humanas e na sociedade como um todo. Mas claro que para responder a estas perguntas precisámos de voltar constantemente ao início da conversa. Por isso a discussão sobre o que é o humor e porque achamos graça esteve sempre presente.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

https://notesonfilm1.com/2025/07/02/thinking-aloud-about-film-ritrovato-round-up-2025-with-pamela-hutchinson/ For this year's Ritrovato Round-Up we are joined by the witty, incisive and all-around fabulous Pamela Hutchinson, editor of the Silent London website, author of two marvellous BFI Classic monographs (The Red Shoes, Pandora's Box), producer of the Weekly Film Bulletin for Sight and Sound and one of the jurors for Ritrovato's DVD Awards since 2018. In the discussion that follows we touch on all the strands of the festival, praise Cecilia Cenciarelli for her programming, Mariann Lewinsky for her illuminating introductions and Ehsan Khoshbakht for his superb programme notes on Lewis Milestone. We touch on the Willi Forst and Nordic Noir programmes, so popular José couldn't get into any of them. We have a lively debate on Molly Haskell's Hepburn programme, agree on our love of Naruse, discuss how Comencini's Delitto de amore  highlights issues of class and made us want to see more Comencini films and delight in the early cinema and silent cinema strands. Sumitra Peries' Gehenu Lamai (The Girls) is a film we all adored. We touch on memorable experiences, such as watching Coline Serrault introduce Trois hommes et un couffin at the Piazza Maggiore, or the incredible response to Chaplin's The Gold Rush, the impact of Silvana Mangano in Bitter Rice, the intensity of the colour in Duel in the Sun, or the spontaneous applause for Shirley MacLaine in Artists and Models.

Un creador con una infancia turbulenta, que se inventó a sí mismo y que es historia del cine, a pesar de que en sus películas no dijo una palabra hasta 1940, en la escena final de “El gran dictador”, una crítica feroz a los fascismos que asolaban Europa.

Researcher and Giants on Record author; Hugh Newman, returns to The Paranormal Peep Show to talk about the archeological discoveries at the famous Gobekli Tepe site in Southern Turkey. But first Hugh tells us about his very own haunted house near Stonehenge. Plates flying off the wall, mysterious men in black knocking at the door and insisting they be let in the house. Bags that end up between the rungs of a chair that seems impossible to place there. Spooky footsteps above his head on the next floor with no one above them. Hugh continues with his recent trip to research the world famous Gobekli Tepe site in Turkey. He mentions how the site was intentionally buried by later civilizations. He reveals the very latest discoveries of the Gobekli Tepe as well as its lesser known but equally intriguing bear by site, Karahan Tepe. These monumental sites predate all other known megalithic constructions by at least 5000 years and are upending our existing knowledge of established human history and the origins of civilization.Hugh's site can be found at https://www.megalithomania.co.uk/The Paranormal Peep Show is part of the Paranormal UK Radio Network at ww.paukradio.comAndy Chaplin's web site is at www.tunedinevents.co.ukBen Emlyn-Jones' HPANWO site is at https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/Neil's artwork can be viewed at www.neilwardart.co.ukBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/paranormal-uk-radio-network--4541473/support.

As the US government was hounding him for various "anti-American"isms, Charlie Chaplin made his first movie since before the war: a black comedy where in lieu of the lovable Tramp (or the Tramp-esque Barber) Chaplin plays a polygamist serial killer. Monsieur Verdoux (1947) isn't so much a change of form for Chaplin, though, as the movie goes through great pains (of misogyny) to make Verdoux sympathetic and gives him a third act monologue that's nearly as great as The Great Dictator's.

Jesús Blanco repasa los títulos que generaron titulares y juicios: un almeriense demandó a Chaplin. ¿Es plagiada la banda sonora de El Padrino?

We're taking another break from our Alfred Hitchcock series to bring in our final Chaplin checkpoint: Charlie Chaplin's 1952 drama Limelight. This is Chaplin's swan song, thematically at least--he would still go on to make three more feature films. It features an aging performer and his friendship with a struggling young ballerina. This film is a bit of a departure for the Tramp. It's more melancholy than his normal faire. Yet many of his familiar themes come through, as well as his characteristic sentiment.

'M THE DUDE PLAYING THE DUDE DISGUISED AS ANOTHER DUDE!! Tropic Thunder Full Reaction Watch Along:   / thereelrejects   Check Out Our Reject Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ With Mission: Impossible - Final Reckoning and Robert Downey Jr. returning to the MCU as Dr. Doom, Greg & Aaron reunite to give their Tropic Thunder Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review!! Join Greg Alba & Aaron Alexander as they trek into the chaotic, meta-Hollywood jungle of Ben Stiller's 2008 action comedy Tropic Thunder. The film follows fading action star Tugg Speedman (Ben Stiller, Meet the Parents, Zoolander) as he joins method actor Kirk Lazarus (Robert Downey Jr., Iron Man, Chaplin), drug-addled Jeff Portnoy (Jack Black, School of Rock, King Kong), rap-star turned actor Alpa Chino (Brandon T. Jackson, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters), and amateur soldier Kevin Sandusky (Jay Baruchel, How to Train Your Dragon, Fanboys) on what they think is a war movie—only to be dropped into a real conflict zone. Cody (Danny McBride, Eastbound & Down, Pineapple Express) leads the local militia, while Rick Peck (Matthew McConaughey, Interstellar, Dallas Buyers Club) and producer Damien Cockburn (Bill Hader, Saturday Night Live, Trainwreck) scramble to rescue their “actors.” Don't miss Tom Cruise's scene-stealing cameo as hotheaded studio exec Les Grossman (formerly of Mission: Impossible), plus Nick Nolte's gravel-voiced Four-Leaf Tayback (Warrior, Cape Fear) in a haunting opening narration. Greg 'n Aaron break down every outrageous moment—from the accidental bridge explosion and the animal-attack prank gone wrong to Lazarus's infamous “survive in the bush” training, Grossman's uncensored boardroom dance, and the film's razor-sharp satire of Hollywood egos. Strap in for an in-depth reaction to the performances, the slapstick mayhem, and the movie's bold, irreverent humor that made Tropic Thunder a cult classic!

BRUTALITY OF SHOW BUSINESS:  5/8: Charlie Chaplin vs. America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided by  Scott Eyman  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/-/es/Scott-Eyman/dp/1982176350 Bestselling Hollywood biographer and film historian Scott Eyman tells the story of Charlie Chaplin's fall from grace. In the aftermath of World War II, Chaplin was criticized for being politically liberal and internationalist in outlook. He had never become a US citizen, something that would be held against him as xenophobia set in when the postwar Red Scare took hold. Politics aside, Chaplin had another problem: his sexual interest in young women. He had been married three times and had had numerous affairs. In the 1940s, he was the subject of a paternity suit, which he lost, despite blood tests that proved he was not the father. His sexuality became a convenient way for those who opposed his politics to condemn him. Refused permission to return to the US after a trip abroad, he settled in Switzerland and made his last two films in London. In Charlie Chaplin vs. America, Scott Eyman explores the life and times of the movie genius who brought us such masterpieces as City Lights and Modern Times. “One of the finest surveys of the man and the artist ever written” (Leonard Maltin) this book is “a sobering account of cancel culture in action.” (The Economist) 1921 CHAPLIN FAIRBANKS PICKFORD
