Podcasts about Charles Foster Kane

In the classic film Citizen Kane, Charles Foster Kane amasses wealth and power by building a newspaper empire. In a story reminiscent of Ecclesiastes 2:4-11, Kane spares himself no pleasure, building a castle with grand gardens full of artistic treasures. Like other tycoons, what Kane really wants is adulation. He bankrolls his own political career and, when it fails, he blames the defeat on voter “fraud” to save face. He builds his wife an opera house and forces her into an ill-suited singing career to make him look good. Here too Kane’s story echoes Ecclesiastes, where wealth is found to harm those who chase and horde it (9:10-15), leaving them eating “in darkness, with great frustration” (5:17). By the end of his life, Charlie Kane lives in that castle alone, isolated, and angry. Citizen Kane ends with the revelation that Charlie’s pursuits have been driven to fill a void in his heart—the parental love he lost as a child. I can imagine the author of Ecclesiastes agreeing. Our Father God has set eternity in our hearts (3:11), and life can only be enjoyed with Him (2:25). Charlie Kane’s cautionary tale speaks to us all: don’t seek spiritual fulfilment through wealth and power, but through the one who pours His love into our hearts (Romans 5:5).

This week on Movie Mistrial, we tackle the titan of classic cinema—Orson Welles' Citizen Kane. Is it truly the greatest film of all time, or has its reputation eclipsed its relevance?Citizen Kane revolutionized filmmaking with groundbreaking cinematography, non-linear storytelling, and deep character study. Welles' portrayal of Charles Foster Kane is as complex as the real-life figures who inspired him, and the film's themes of ambition, isolation, and legacy still resonate today. “Rosebud” isn't just a mystery—it's a cinematic milestone.While Citizen Kane is revered by critics and scholars, some modern audiences find its pacing slow and its emotional impact muted. Its innovations, though important historically, may feel less striking to viewers accustomed to decades of films that followed its lead.Join us as we peel back the layers of Citizen Kane—discussing its artistry, its influence, and whether it still deserves the crown in today's cinematic landscape.Connect with us and share your thoughts:Twitter: http://tiny.cc/MistrialTwitterFacebook: http://tiny.cc/MistrialFBInstagram: http://tiny.cc/MistrialInstaVisit our website, www.moviemistrial.com, for more captivating episodes and to stay up-to-date with all things movies.

Henk had de film zelf nog nooit gezien en kwam daarom met misschien wel één van de beste films aller tijden op de proppen voor onze klassieker van de maand: Citizen Kane. De film van, met en door Orson Welles wordt gezien als een cinematografisch hoogstandje, maar maakt de film ruim tachtig jaar later nog steeds evenveel indruk? Samen met onze special guest Amanda duiken we in de wereld van krantenmagnaat Charles Foster Kane die de wereld na zijn dood achterliet met het woord “Rosebud” Check de gehele review met daarin het antwoord via de welbekende podcast-kanalen of bekijk ‘m met beeld via youtube.com/filmerds. #podcast #vodcast #filmerds #arnhem #citizenkane #orsonwelles #classic #klassieker #1941

Actors win awards and gain our admiration when they convince us that they have “become” someone else–it's what we mean when we say that so-and-so “inhabits” a role. But that's not the only benchmark: a good actor is also someone whose statements are interesting to hear and whose voice engages the listener, whether or not we “believe” that he's really Charles Foster Kane or Norman Bates. That's how Mike approaches James Woods in True Believer (1989). He and Dan also talk about the title and how it reflects an element of the film more interesting than the mystery at the heart of its plot. So grab that hair tie, fix that ponytail, and give it a listen! James Woods's character, Eddie Dodd, is based upon the lawyer Tony Serra; you might be interested in this recent biography of him.

Orson Welles's Citizen Kane (1941) is many people's favourite film of all time, including Donald Trump's. Why does Trump love it so? What does he get right and what does he get wrong about the trajectory of the life of Charles Foster Kane? What does the film reveal about the relationship between celebrity, influence and political power? And why is Rosebud not the real mystery at the heart of this story?Like Kane, want more stuff?

This week we kick off our special nine-week summer series, CLASSIC FILMS, CLASSIC CRUCIBLE LESSONS. We begin our examination of the lessons we can learn from movies on the American Film Institute's list of the top 100 U.S. films of all time by discussing CITZEN KANE – No. 1 on AFI's list. Unlike most of the conversations we have on the podcast (and unlike most we'll have on this series), our look at Charles Foster Kane, the title character of this classic, is not an examination of the trials he faced and how he triumphed over them – but how his inability and refusal to grow from the setbacks and failures of his life doomed him to allowing his worst days to define him. But that doesn't mean there isn't plenty we can learn from CITIZEN KANE. The movie is a masterclass in why character and serving others rather than selfishly thinking only of ourselves is the only way to lead a life of joy and fulfilment – what we call a life of significance. In exploring how Charles Foster Kane failed to leave behind a legacy to be proud of – we can discover how to do just that.

Estreou em 1941 um dos filmes que é considerado por muitos o melhor filme de todos os tempos: Cidadão Kane. Filme dirigido por Orson Welles e roteirizado por Welles e Herman J. Mankiewicz, o filme ganhou uma importância cinematográfica além do seu tempo de exibição e premiações. Foi o tempo que colocou Cidadão Kane em seu merecido lugar de destaque.O filme aborda a história de Charles Foster Kane, um magnata, dono de um conglomerado de mídia que influenciou, denunciou, propagandeou e politizou informações junto à população, impactando positiva e negativamente a vida de muita gente. Cidadão Kane desenvolve essa história que busca, através do olhar de terceiros, desvendar quem realmente foi Kane e por que, em seu leito de morte, ele disse "Rosebud".No episódio de hoje, Rafael Arinelli recebe Cecília Barroso (Cenas de Cinema), Alan Alves (colunista Cinem(ação)) e Wesley Castro (Wanna Be Nerd) para conversar sobre as inovações técnicas que o filme trouxe para o mundo do cinema e, sobretudo, sobre como a narrativa, que muitas vezes é pouco elogiada, consegue ser inventiva e moderna ao contar uma história complexa, de forma não linear e com o ponto de vista de tantos personagens.Então, sintonize seu rádio, ligue sua TV, aprume seu jornal, e venha ouvir um podcast detalhando o filme Cidadão Kane.• 03m56: Pauta Principal• 1h12m10: Plano Detalhe• 1h26m23: EncerramentoOuça nosso Podcast também no:• Feed: https://bit.ly/cinemacaofeed• Apple Podcast: https://bit.ly/itunes-cinemacao• Android: https://bit.ly/android-cinemacao• Deezer: https://bit.ly/deezer-cinemacao• Spotify: https://bit.ly/spotify-cinemacao• Amazon Music: https://bit.ly/amazoncinemacaoAgradecimentos aos patrões e padrinhos: • André Marinho• Anna Foltran• Bruna Mercer• Charles Calisto Souza• Daniel Barbosa da Silva Feijó• Diego Lima• Eloi Xavier• Gabriela Pastori• Guilherme S.

This week we're talking about maybe the most talked-about film of all time, Citizen Kane. It's hard to find things that haven't already been said about this movie, but boy do we try! What would a modern retelling of this movie be like, and why would it be a miniseries instead? What decade of film should we throw in the trash? And has anyone else noticed Charles Foster Kane is kinda similar to a certain political figure we have today? Also, why we hate car windows. (Recorded December 23rd, 2023.)

Known for the better part of its 82 years as the greatest movie ever made, can Citizen Kane still live up its reputation with today's generation?  Everything revolutionary about the film - its deep-focus cinematography, experimental editing, innovative sound design and non-linear storytelling - has all been imitated hundreds of times. So is this movie only great because it was ahead of its time, or does it still shine brightly in its own right?  And is the character of Charles Foster Kane just tied to the faded memory of legendary news mogul William Randolph Hearst, or is he newly relevant in the age of Citizens Murdoch and Trump? Join our panel of young film lovers as they bring fresh eyes to this classic. What will they rediscover in Citizen Kane, and what new revelations might they offer from their generation's perspective? Also in this episode, a look back on our first season: find out which of the 12 classics are our panelist's favorites and why.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Orson Welles' film, released in 1941, which is widely acclaimed as one of the greatest, if not the greatest, films yet made. Welles plays the lead role of Charles Foster Kane, a newspaper magnate, and Welles directed, produced and co-wrote this story of loneliness at the heart of a megalomaniac. The plot was partly inspired by the life of William Randolph Hearst, who then used the power of his own newspapers to try to suppress the film's release. It was to take some years before Citizen Kane reached a fuller audience and, from that point, become so celebrated. The image above is of Kane addressing a public meeting while running for Governor. With Stella Bruzzi Professor of Film and Dean of Arts and Humanities at University College London Ian Christie Professor of Film and Media History at Birkbeck, University of London And John David Rhodes Professor of Film Studies and Visual Culture at the University of Cambridge Producer: Simon Tillotson

For decades critics said Orson Welles's Citizen Kane was the greatest film ever made. Unfortunately, that intimidating label sometimes keeps people from sitting down and watching the thing. It needn't be so. Kane is eminently watchable and entertaining. It also definitely isn't the greatest film of all time, but it's one of the most technically impressive, especially considering it was directed, produced, co-written and starred in by a 25-year-old who'd never made a movie before. The titular Charles Foster Kane is a character very recognizable to Americans, the larger-than-life business mogul-turned-celebrity who dabbles in politics. Many details of Kane's private life are known to the general public, but the film tells us that there's more to a person than what's said in the newspapers – perhaps especially when that person was himself a newspaperman who took pride in controlling public perception. Kane's complicated, puzzle-like story structure suggests that fully boring down into the mystery of a man's life may be impossible, but also makes us feel that the effort to get beneath the façade is worthwhile. Citizen Kane was included on the Vatican's 1995 list of important films under the category of Art.

Bob has 10 small sports questions for Matt and one BIG one about to consume the World Cup from a societal/morality standpoint. Matt also goes off on the Grey Cup and Bob has the greatest analogy comparing Bill Belichick to Charles Foster Kane,

Sam “speaking”. It's a strange sensation, this... being on-schedule. An abiding struggle has become... LIKE a job. I don't need no tirades about a fortnightly podcast holding no candle to Alaskan crab-fishing or hostage negotiation, alright? I'm talking about a consistent routine, not exertion, OKAY?! Though you try filling silence for three hours with no water. And yes, that's my choice, but why should things be EASY?!

This week on the OETA Movie Club Podcast we discuss "Citizen Kane". Citizen Kane is a 1941 American drama film produced by, directed by, and starring Orson Welles. He also co-wrote the screenplay with Herman J. Mankiewicz. The picture was Welles' first feature film. Citizen Kane is frequently cited as the greatest film ever made. The film is about a reporter that is assigned to decipher newspaper magnate Charles Foster Kane's (Orson Welles) dying words, and his investigation gradually reveals the fascinating portrait of a complex man who rose from obscurity to staggering heights.Listen now wherever you get your podcasts and tune in to "Citizen Kane" on Saturday, October 8, 2022 at 9 pm on  OETA.

En su lecho de muerte Kane acaricia una bola de cristal con un paisaje nevado en su interior, Rosebud, sus últimas palabras. Serán el pretexto del niño pródigio de Hollywood para contarnos la vida del potentado que él mismo interpreta. El debut de Welles , tan caótico como genio, apela a temas universales, el amor, el fracaso, la ambición, el poder, la decadencia, la soledad. El paso del tiempo cubre de polvo y desmemoria la vida más intensa, hasta la del magnate de la prensa Charles Foster Kane, trasunto del real William Randolph Hearst. El Hearst real intentó por todos los medios comprar los derechos del film para destruirlo y que no fuera distribuido en las salas. Kane no es un hombre hecho a sí mismo como el triunfador prototipo del sueño americano. Rico y caprichoso, lo tendrá todo en la vida menos el verdadero afecto, ni el de sus dos mujeres, ni el de un amigo al que humillará, ni el de su madre, perdido en una casa en la nieve. El joven Kane invierte su patrimonio en comprar un periódico, así inicia su imperio. Un joven con don de gentes, seguro de sí mismo y con la espaldas bien cubiertas, desde aquel día en que el banquero Thatcher le arrancó de los brazos de su madre y se convirtió en su guardián legal. Años después mantendrá el equilibrio a duras penas en los terrenos movedizos de la política hasta que tropiece en el portal de una corista rubia con dolor de muelas. A medida que Kane envejece todo su universo se desmorona, como el puzzle que Sarah intenta formar en la gigantesca mansión de Xanadú, el eco de dos voces en soledad choca contra los espejos del castillo. Además del estupendo guion escrito por Herman Mankiewickz y la partitura de Bernard Herrmann. Welles gozó de la libertad creativa que la RKO no le dio en su primer proyecto inacabado, inspirado en “El corazón de las tinieblas” de Joseph Conrad. La factura innovadora y el talento en cada encuadre, en cada transición, el uso de la iluminación con Gregg Toland tras el objetivo de la cámara, la profundidad de campo, el uso del gran angular distorsionando la realidad, los travelings, colocando la cámara en todas las posiciones posibles, mostrando la degradación de un matrimonio mediante varios fundidos en los desayunos con su primera esposa, subiendo con la grúa sobre el cabaret de Sarah y atravesando la claraboya de vidrio, reflejando a una enfermera en la bola de cristal. Un trineo arde y entre el polvo leemos el enigma: Rosebud. Esta noche traspasamos la propiedad privada del magnate Kane… David Velázquez, Zacarías Cotán y Raúl Gallego

Rosebud för hela slanten! Vi tittar på vad som brukar kallas "tidernas bästa film". Charles Foster Kane går från liten pojke i liten stuga till stor tidningsmagnat i stort palats. Men efter hans död undrar alla vem han var och vi undrar om filmen håller. Manus: Herman J. Mankiewicz, Orson Welles Regi: Orson Welles I rollerna: Orson Welles, Dorothy Comingore, Joseph Cotten I studion: Martin Soneby, Erik Broström, Ola Aurell

For this episode, Blake and Alexei discuss Bill Duke's incredible Deep Cover from the Criterion Collection and have a general "Criterion Catch-Up" on the first batch of UHDs.Deep CoverFilm noir hits the mean streets of 1990s Los Angeles in this stylish and subversive underworld odyssey from veteran actor-director Bill Duke. Laurence Fishburne stars as Russell Stevens, a police officer who goes undercover as “John Hull,” the partner of a dangerously ambitious cocaine trafficker (Jeff Goldblum), in order to infiltrate and bring down a powerful Latin American drug ring operating in LA. But the further Stevens descends into this ruthless world of money, violence, and power, the more disillusioned he becomes—and the harder it is to make out the line between right and wrong, crime and justice. Steeped in shadowy, neon-soaked atmosphere and featuring Dr. Dre's debut solo single, Deep Cover is an unsung gem of the nineties' Black cinema explosion that delivers a riveting character study and sleek action thrills alongside a furious moral indictment of America and the devastating failures of the war on drugs.DIRECTOR-APPROVED SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew 4K digital restoration, with 2.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack on the Blu-rayNew interview with director Bill DukeAFI Conservatory seminar from 2018 featuring Duke and actor Laurence Fishburne, moderated by film critic Elvis MitchellNew conversation between film scholars Racquel J.

In telling the story of the meteoric rise and precipitous fall of a William Randolph Hearst–like newspaper magnate named Charles Foster Kane, Welles not only created the definitive portrait of American megalomania, he also unleashed a torrent of stylistic innovations—from the jigsaw-puzzle narrative structure to the stunning deep-focus camera work of Gregg Toland—that have ensured that Citizen Kane remains fresh and galvanizing for every new generation of moviegoers to encounter it.SPECIAL FEATURESNew 4K digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrackIn the 4K UHD edition: One 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and three Blu-rays with the film and special featuresThree audio commentaries: from 2021 featuring Orson Welles scholars James Naremore and Jonathan Rosenbaum; from 2002 featuring filmmaker Peter Bogdanovich; and from 2002 featuring film critic Roger EbertThe Complete “Citizen Kane,” (1991), a rarely seen feature-length BBC documentaryNew interviews with critic Farran Smith Nehme and film scholar Racquel J.

There, in the shadow of the riots of 1965 and 1992, young Caine (Tyrin Turner) is growing up under the influence of his ruthless, drug-dealing father (Samuel L. Jackson, in a chilling cameo) and his loose-cannon best friend, O-Dog (Larenz Tate), leading him into a spiral of violent crime from which he is not sure he wants to escape, despite the best efforts of his grandparents and the steadfast Ronnie (Jada Pinkett).

St. Paul has one last chance to address the church in Ephesus before his impending arrest, trial, and death. Have you ever considered what your last words would be before your death? Harriet Tubman, Charles Foster Kane, and The Mellon Family guest star.

This week, the cast of Movies that Make Us take on what is arguably the greatest film ever made, Citizen Kane. Since it was recently dethroned by Paddington 2 as having the best rating on RottenTomatoes.com, we decided to travel back to 1941 and see if Orson Welles' film stands the test of time.The film explores the life of Charles Foster Kane through the lenses of those who knew him, those that loved him, and those that hated him. It's the story of a young man's quest for love, power, and respect who reaches dazzling heights and then has a tragic downfall. Citizen Kane set so many precedents in cinematography, editing, acting, and is still very relevant to life in the modern era. What are your thoughts on the film? Have you seen it before? Do you appreciate its significance? Next week, the cast is reuniting for the first time post Covid, and we're bringing our staff picks to the underappreciated genre of Western films. Then through July, we are talking about movies that reunite us, about gathering together, expressing love for life and each other.Did you miss the video premier of this episode?

Tim plays Charles Foster Kane and Ryan plays Rosebud in this dramatic reenactment of the 1941 film Citizen Kane.

Film mythique d'Orson Welles, Citizen Kane sortait en salles il y a 80 ans et reste l'un des meilleurs films de tous les temps. On en parle avec notre spécialiste cinéma, Dick Tomasovic. « Bagarre dans la Discothèque » à 11h30, avec Sébastien Ministru et Nicolas Herman. Et dès midi : "L'objet Pop" de Nicolas Herman : la vache qui rit. Les 80 ans de la sortie "Citizen Kane" d'Orson Welles, le 1er mai 1941. A la mort du milliardaire Charles Foster Kane, un grand magnat de la presse, Thompson, un reporter, enquête sur sa vie. Les contacts qu'il prend avec ses proches lui font découvrir un personnage gigantesque, mégalomane, égoïste et solitaire... On en parle avec Dick Tomasovic, chargé de cours en histoire et esthétique du cinéma et des arts du spectacle à l'ULg. Le "Boing Boum Tchak" de Sébastien Ministru : « Bob Marley et la fille du dictateur » d'Anne-Sophie Jahn (Grasset). « Tu es vilaine. » C'est la première phrase que Bob Marley lance à Pascaline Bongo, la fille aînée du président gabonais Omar Bongo. Elle a 23 ans et elle vient de se glisser dans la loge du chanteur, après un de ses concerts aux États-Unis. Nous sommes en 1979, Bob a 34 ans et est à l'apogée de sa carrière. Autour de lui, un essaim de groupies tente désespérément d'attirer son attention, sous le regard attentif de sa femme et choriste, Rita Marley. Mais Pascaline, fille chérie de son père tout-puissant, n'a pas l'habitude de se faire rembarrer. Grande et sculpturale, elle regarde un instant la superstar droit dans les yeux, médusée, puis éclate d'un grand rire. C'est parce qu'elle a les cheveux défrisés, or pour les rastas, les cheveux, c'est sacré, ils ne doivent être ni coupés, ni coiffés... Pascaline propose alors à Bob de donner un concert au Gabon, pour l'anniversaire de son père. Le chanteur n'a jamais joué en Afrique. Il répond « oui » à son invitation. Ainsi commence la grande histoire d'amour, la dernière de sa vie, longtemps gardée secrète, entre Pascaline et lui. Une passion qui cristallise l'histoire de la décolonisation, de la religion rasta, du traumatisme de l'esclavage. Anne-Sophie Jahn a enquêté pendant de longs mois et recueilli le témoignage inédit de Pascaline Bongo. Son récit personnel mêle scènes et confidences, solos et foules en transe, sur un ton libre, brûlant, désirable. Ainsi revit l'icône rastafari, partie à 36 ans.

En una nueva edición del viernes de cine en Página 13, Iván Valenzuela conversó con Antonio Martínez y Ascanio Cavallo sobre “Mank”, película de David Fincher para Netflix y el documental “Harley Quinn” de Carolina Adriazola y José Luis Sepúlveda, que sigue a una mujer, madre de dos hijos, uno de ellos fallecido, que vive en Puente Alto. Además, nuestros columnistas recordaron a la actriz Pamela Tiffin, protagonista de ”Uno, dos, tres” y “En busca del amor”, que falleció a la edad de 78 años en un hospital de Nueva York por causas naturales. Finalmente, Martínez y Cavallo comentaron los 80 años de “El ciudadano Kane”, película de 1940, dirigida por Orson Welles, que cuenta la historia de un periodista obsesionado con el hecho de descubrir el significado de la última palabra que Charles Foster Kane dijo antes de morir.

Citizen Kane is universally recognized as one of the greatest films of all time. Orson Welles and his collaborators created a masterpiece that was well ahead of its time in storytelling, cinematography, and special effects. Yet for all its achievements, it's one of the saddest movies ever made. The film tells the story of Charles Foster Kane, a wealthy businessman who began his career with good intentions. But over time, he tries to control everyone around him. In the end he dies alone with a mansion full of treasures and a heart full of bitterness and regret. In a powerful scene late in the movie, Kane's former friend and employee Jed Leeland tells a reporter, “That's all he ever wanted out of life, was love. That's the tragedy of Charles Foster Kane. You see, he just didn't have any to give.” On today's episode, Kent encourages us to develop our love of writing and the people we serve. *** If you enjoyed this episode, we would be grateful if you leave a review on Apple Podcasts.

What I learned from reading The Difference Between God and Larry Ellison: God Doesn't Think He's Larry Ellison by Mike Wilson[1:06]  You want to know what I think about Larry Ellison? Well, I suppose he had some private sort of greatness but he kept it to himself. He never gave himself away. He never gave anything away. He just left you a tip. He had a generous mind. I don't suppose anybody ever had so many opinions, but he never believed in anything except Larry Ellison. [1:45] That was the way Ellison's mind worked. He was like a search engine gone haywire. [3:01] I asked Ellison how he had seen his adult life when he was a kid. What he thought was going to happen to him. “You mean did I anticipate becoming the fifth wealthiest person in the United States? No. This is all kind of surreal. I don't even believe it. When I look around I say this must be something out of a dream.” [3:57] Ellison is the Charles Foster Kane of the technological age. He is bright, brash, optimistic, and immensely appealing, yet somehow incomplete. [4:31] He worked in the computer industry for several years but never had a job that suited what he saw as his superior intellectual gifts. [6:08] The stockholder who benefited the most from Oracle's performance was Larry Ellison, exactly what he intended. Ellison started the company because he wanted to be his own boss. And he stayed in control throughout his tenure at Oracle always holding onto enough stock that his power and authority could never be seriously challenged. [7:57] To him there was now power greater than the human mind. [8:23] What Larry reminds me of is a truth that Benjamin Franklin hit on 250 years ago. He says his mind was much improved by all the reading he did. There were very tangible results in Benjamin Franklin's life when people found his conversations more enjoyable because he was a more interesting person to talk to—that led him being able to raise money for his business. It helped him close sales. Larry Ellison is very much the same way. [8:53] When hiring, Ellison valued intelligence more than experience. He often looked for unruly geniuses instead of solid, steady workers. [10:52] If he hadn't made me rich, I'd probably hate him because he is obnoxious. He is not nice to people. [12:39] He was capable of chilling selfishness and inspiring generosity. He could dazzle people with his insights and madden them with his lies. He was a fundamentally shy man who could delight audiences with his colorful speeches. He was known for his healthy ego and often seemed deeply insecure. Many people learned to accept Ellison's contradictory nature. [14:01] In 1970 sales of packaged computer programs amounted to only $70 million for the entire year. [15:55] There is a book called The HP Way. I did a podcast on it (Founders #29) [16:20] The Oracle Way was simply to win. How that goal was achieved was secondary. [17:18] Ellison's early life left a lot to be desired. He was never very happy with the humdrum facts of his life so he changed them. Beginning when he was a child, and continuing into his days in the Forbes 400, Ellison lived partly in a world of his own invention. [18:15] He wasn't going to be smothered by the dreary circumstances of his life. He was going to leap over them. [20:13] Larry reads a lot of biographies. One person he admired the most was Winston Churchill. He had a lot in common with Churchill. Both were mediocre students. Both desperately sought the approval of their fathers to no avail. And both were witty, insatiably curious, and charming when it suited them. Reading about Churchill reassured him that even ‘gods have moments of insecurity.' [22:30] A description of Larry in his mid twenties: Ellison was extremely hard on himself. He had a mental image of where he should be and what he should be and he was not able to attain it. [25:19] He has incredible intelligence and he applies it with incredible intensity. [26:44] The subject he liked best was himself. He was forever telling people how wonderful he was, how smart he was, and how rich he was going to be. [29:50] For Ellison Oracle was a holy mission. [30:33] There was a problem. A sheet rock wall stood between the offices and the computer room. Scott said, “Larry, we need to hook up these terminals. How are we going to hook them up?” “I'll show you how.” Ellison replied. He grabbed a hammer and smashed a hole through the wall. Bruce Scott came to believe that Ellison's entire business philosophy could be summed up in that single act. Find a way or make one. Just do it. [32:41] Ellison could not have dreamed up a more amiable and helpful competitor than IBM. Think of the marketing of relational technology as a race, with Ellison and IBM as two of the main entrants. IBM taught Ellison to walk, bought him a pair of track shoes, trained him as a sprinter, and then gave him a big head start. How could he lose? [35:14] He was practicing. He was working. He knew there was a problem and he fixed it. [35:47] The idea that somebody else might take away Oracle's business was poison to Ellison. He understood the importance of locking up a large share of the market early. “How much does it cost Pepsi to get one half of a percent of the market from Coke once the market has been established?” he once asked rhetorically. “It's very expensive. This market is being established. If we don't run as hard as we can, as fast as we can, and then do it again twice as fast, it'll be cost prohibitive for us to increase market share.” [36:14] Larry put marketing first and everything else second. Average technology and good marketing beat good technology and average marketing every day. [39:17] My view is that there are only a handful of things that are really important and you should devote all of your time to those things and forget everything else. [40:46] I was not terribly forgiving of mediocrity. I was completely intolerant of a lack of effort. And I was fairly brutal in the way I expressed myself. [41:16] Kobe Bryant: I had issues or problems with the people who don't demand excellence from themselves. I won't tolerate that. [42:30] The guy that was in charge of Oracle's advertising in the early days of the company: My ads attack like a pack of speed crazed wolverines and have the same general effect on your competition that a full moon does on a werewolf. [44:00] Larry fundamentally believed that his company was going to be more important than IBM. You can't imagine how far fetched those ideas sounded. He would say he was here to become the largest software company in the world. People were taken aback. [45:32] Larry goes against consensus. Every single on of his advisors told him sell equity, sell equity, sell equity. And Larry just had a fundamental belief that that would be a mistake because the equity is going to be worth a lot more in the future. [46:21] There are only two kinds of people in the world to Larry. Those who are on his team and those who are his enemies. There is no middle ground. [48:03] Even when he was feeling his worst Ellison remained an optimist. A man who couldn't help looking forward. He lived in the future. [49:34] He was terrified he would fail, confirming his father's dark predictions about him. There was a note in his voice that you didn't usually hear with him—just scared, worried. [56:30] I am very competitive, and sometimes, when somebody does something really great, I get upset because I just feel like that isn't me. And my reaction to Steve [Jobs] wasn't competitive at all. I felt what he had done was so wonderful, and I was so proud of him, and I love him so much, it was almost as if I had done it. I didn't feel the least bit competitive. The wonderful thing about loving somebody else is that it can expand your ego in the best sense. If they do something great, you feel terrific about it. [57:38] The only things that are important in our lives are love and work. Not necessarily in that order. We work because work is an act of creation. We identify with it. Both love and work conspire to deliver some kind of happiness. If we can get reasonably good at both of them, we are in really great shape. [58:21] He's got the same problem the rest of us have. He has to engage in an enlightened pursuit of happiness. To figure out what makes him happy. Human beings are builders. He is going to have to find something he really wants to build. He is going to have to have some idea and create something out of that idea. —“I have listened to every episode released and look forward to every episode that comes out.
