【聊了什么The What】 电影颁奖季随着奥斯卡2026的完结落下帷幕，本期疲惫娇娃一年一度又来带着大家来例行盘点奥斯卡。先从争议开始，我们讨论了《K-pop猎魔女团》获奖感言被粗暴掐断引发的亚裔“噤声”事件和流媒体如何让学院派感到“被蚕食”的恐惧。几个娃也重点解析了年度大热《一战再战》与《罪人 Sinners》：艺术家电影人PTA是如何交出一份让大众满意的答卷？Ryan Coogler又是如何用恐怖片外壳包裹美国南方的移民血泪？我们对比了最佳男主提名的甜茶和获奖的Michael B. Jordan的表演（如果好奇我们对于甜茶的看法，请移步隔壁百花newsletter仔细阅读），也讨论了我们喜欢的导演赵婷和贾法·帕纳西。全球秩序分崩离析的当下，好莱坞的美式中心主义叙事在还站得住脚吗？敬请收听本期节目一探究竟。 Welcome to the annual Oscars recap by your neighborhood film and pop culture critics: CyberPink. We start off with controversies: discussing the "silencing" of Asian voices after the acceptance speech for K-Pop Demon Hunters was abruptly cut short, and exploring the ongoing battle between rise of streaming giants and the traditional film industry the Academy represents. We then jump into the heavy hitters: “One Battle After Another” and “Sinners” – how did auteur Paul Thomas Anderson deliver a film that (finally) satisfied the masses? And how did Ryan Coogler use the framework of a horror film to envelop the blood, sweat, and tears of the American South's immigrant experience? We compare the performances of Best Actor nominee Timothée Chalamet and winner Michael B. Jordan (if you're curious about our hot takes on Timmy “Sweet Tea”, please head over to our Baihua Newsletter for the full debrief). We also share our love for directors Chloé Zhao and Jafar Panahi. In an era where the global world order is fracturing, is there still space for an America-centric narrative in Hollywood? Tune in to this episode to find out. 【时间轴 The When】 01:39：从杨紫琼到《K-pop猎魔女团》：亚裔在奥斯卡的“闭麦”困境 08:48：《罪人Sinners》深度解析：原创剧本、吸血鬼隐喻与真实的华裔移民史 21:24：最佳男主讨论：怎样才是最佳表演，我们为什么喜欢日漫宅男Michael B.

We had some fun rewriting Oscar history and deciding who would have been nominated and who would have won the Best Director Academy Award from 2011-present if only women were eligible. Nominees/winners Kathryn Bigelow, Greta Gerwig, Chloe Zhao, Emerald Fennell, Sophia Coppola, and Jane Campion aren't the only ladies getting the spotlight here. We look at the movies of Emma Seligman, Scarlet Johan, Scarlett Johansson, Lulu Wang, Ava DuVernay, and many more.Hosted by Brad Garoon & Jake Ziegler0:00 Introduction, 3:00 2011, 6:33 2012, 9:35 2013, 12:03 2014, 14:56 2015, 17:27 2016, 19:23 2017, 22:30 2018, 25:37 2019, 29:34 2020, 34:12 2021, 37:50 2022, 40:13 2023, 43:22 2024, 47:09 2025#barbie #zerodarkthirty #powerofthedog

Chloé Zhao became only the second woman to win an Oscar for Best Director, for 2020's “Nomadland,” and she is nominated once again for “Hamnet,” starring Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley. Based on Maggie O'Farrell's novel of the same name, the film follows a young William Shakespeare and his wife, and their grief at the loss of their only son. “Hamnet” is also nominated for Best Picture, Best Actress, and five other awards.  Speaking with Michael Schulman, Zhao talked about the origins of “Hamnet,” the centrality of nature imagery in her work, and how the I.P. in a Marvel film is not so different from adapting a literary novel.   This segment originally aired on December 5, 2025.

Join host David Remnick as he discusses the latest in politics, news, and current events in conversation with political leaders, newsmakers, innovators, New Yorker staff writers, authors, actors, and musicians.

The Academy has historically favored men when it comes to giving out its Oscars statuettes. Women are once again not only underrepresented among this year’s Best Picture nominees, but also fared worse than last year. Emily Taranelli analyzed how much female characters speak across the 10 nominated films, including top contenders like Ryan Coogler’s Sinners and Chloe Zhao’s Hamnet. On Imperfect Paradise, Emily talks about her findings, why what female characters are saying on-screen matters, and what gender disparity in dialogue can tell us about the kinds of movies that are institutionally valued.

The Oscars race is more chaotic than ever this year… which means there are a lot of movies people are telling you to watch. But which ones are actually worth the time (and the price of a cinema ticket)? Laura and Em are giving their brutally honest reviews of some of the biggest films in this year’s Best Picture race — separating the genuinely great from the ones that might only impress the film bros. There’s the blockbuster spectacle Em loved that Laura still can’t believe made it into the Oscars, a devastating drama that left an entire cinema quietly sobbing, and a bizarre twist-filled film the girls almost can’t discuss without ruining it. Plus, the wild sports movie everyone’s suddenly obsessed with, a comeback performance that could steal the night, and the one film both hosts agree we’ll probably still be talking about long after the Oscars are over.

On this week's show, our good friend, Charlotte Observer columnist, and author of Finding Your Walden: How to Strive Less, Simplify More & Embrace What Matters Most  Jen Tota-McGivney joins us for the very 4th time to share her 2026 Oscars picks. All this & much, much less! Debts No Honest Man Can Pay is over 2 rock-solid hours of musical eclectica & other noodle stories. The show started in 2003 at WHFR-FM (Dearborn, MI), moved to WGWG-FM (Boiling Springs, NC) in 2006 & Plaza Midwood Community Radio (Charlotte, NC) in 2012, with a brief pit-stop at WLFM-FM (Appleton, WI) in 2004.

I had the chance to see Academy Award–winning director Chloe Zhao speak at Emerson College's Los Angeles campus, and her insights were some of the most thoughtful I've heard about filmmaking and creativity.In this episode, I break down the biggest lessons from her talk — including how losing two years of footage from her first film forced her to surrender and start something new, a decision that ultimately launched her career.We also explore her approach to working with non-actors, the paradox of authenticity in performance, and the somatic rituals she uses to help actors embody their characters before filming. Zhao also shared insights about casting child actors, the role of synchronicity in creative careers, and why artists must “live the question” rather than chase certainty.Whether you're a filmmaker, storyteller, or artist in any medium, these ideas touch on the deeper realities of creative work: embracing uncertainty, trusting intuition, and earning the privilege of an audience.I also reflect on how these lessons connect to my own work developing The Arbiters, where storyboards and animatics are helping transform a script into something people can actually see and feel.If you're pursuing a creative path, these takeaways from Chloe Zhao might change the way you think about failure, process, and artistic success.

In recent awards seasons, Asian-centric films have twice dominated the Academy Awards,  with “Parasite” and “Everything Everywhere All At Once” taking home the top prizes. This year, Chloe Zhao's "Hamnet" is a Hollywood darling on the big-screen, while Asian actors like Greta Lee and Hudson Williams are shining on the small-screen. So has the roaring success of Asian and AAPI media continued? Our two experts return for a special hour-long conversation on Asian representation in media!Get your tickets now to our Bookmarked: LIVE! event at Lovestruck Books in Cambridge on Thursday, March 12, at 7 p.m.: https://bit.ly/miasosaUTR

Happy 2026, Vintage Sand fans! Thank you for taking time away from looking for real estate opportunities in Greenland to join us for Episodes 65 and 66, our first of 2026. Herein, Team Vintage Sand returns one last time to the source of some of our most popular episodes: Danny Peary's hard-to-find 1993 classic "Alternate Oscars". In the past, we have used Peary's model to approach the Best Picture Academy Awards from every decade going back to the 1930's. Collect them all! For this episode, we wrap up this series with the most recent complete decade, the 2010's. First, a caveat: we began this podcast eight years ago, in the spring of 2018, which means that we have already discussed many of today's films in a number of different contexts already. We did our Best of the Teens in early 2020, and recently did our Top 10 of the Century so far, wherein many of the films we're talking about today are contained. Add in that we did episodes on the best of 2018 and 2019, respectively, in those years, and you get the sense that we have already covered this ground several times. But like all good film fans, we're completists, so we conclude this series of episodes with these two, which will focus on 2010 to 2014 and 2015 to 2019 respectively. Mercifully, perhaps, these episodes are shorter than most others we've done, simply because, as mentioned, this is terrain we have covered several times already. The teens were clearly a transitional time for film, especially in Hollywood. The foreign market came to dominate, as did the teen market, which led to a kind of lowest common denominator for American film in these years. Throw in the uncertainties created by the rise of streaming and the changes in where and how people watch film, and you have…well, it's still a little too early to tell what the 2010's will look like to film historians, if there are indeed any film historians left. That being said, it's clear that the decade featured some of the greatest films ever made, ones that will stand the test of time and will continue to be watched long into the future. In many ways, the Mexican New Wavers dominated the decade, winning half of the Best Director Oscars for the whole decade: Del Toro for "Shape of Water", Cuarón for "Gravity" and "Roma", and Iñárritu for "Birdman" and "The Revenant". And of course, the stunning triumph of "Parasite" ended a decade in film that many were ready to write off (and got rid of the bad taste left behind by "Green Book" the previous year). It was also a decade that saw the arrival of some wildly innovative and talented filmmakers, among them Chloe Zhao, Ryan Coogler, Ava Duvernay, Jordan Peele, Greta Gerwig, Steve McQueen, and Damien Chazelle, plus amazing directors who transcended often marginalized genres like Ari Aster, Alex Garland, Robert Eggers and Denis Villeneuve. We also saw some great works from directors who came of age in the 90's and early 00's like David Fincher, the Coens, Spike Lee, Christopher Nolan, Todd Haynes and the Andersons, both Wes and PTA divisions. And for the icing on the cake, we got some brilliant work from the old guard Hollywood New Wavers like Martin Scorsese (who just seemed to pick up steam as the decade went on), Steven Spielberg, (at least with "Lincoln"), Terrence Malick and, most surprisingly, Paul Schrader. So make yourselves comfortable, have yourselves one of those lovely pastries from Mendl's, and join us for our final foray into the world of Best Picture Alternate Oscars!

Pete and Joseph get sad together this week as they review another Best Picture nominee, Hamnet (2025). Chloe Zhao's follow up to Marvel's Eternals shows that she did not fall completely into the studio system, as she brings the viewer on a tale of how William Shakespeare may have written Hamlet.

It's officially that time of year again: Oscar season! We're now just a few weeks away from the 98th Academy Awards and to celebrate, over the coming days and weeks we'll be posting conversations about movies in the mix for all sorts of major awards at this year's ceremony (not just the writing categories). We have of course ticked off a few of the front runners already on the show in recent months - scroll back in your podcast feed to hear our chats with Ryan Coogler about Sinners and Chloe Zhao about Hamnet. But there's always room for more, right?Which brings us to Weapons – writer-director Zach Cregger's astonishing Hansel and Gretel-esque horror fairy tale, structured like Paul Thomas Anderson's Magnolia. The film hit cinemas last summer and quickly became a surprise box office smash, earning a Best Supporting Actress nomination for Amy Madigan along the way. It tells the tale of a town in Pennsylvania who wake up one morning to find their children missing. Ring camera footage reveals that at precisely 2:17am, an entire class of kids – bar one child – got up and ran from their homes, running through the night towards an unknown destination, with their arms spread wide. The film grapples with the aftermath of that mysterious event, zooming in one-by-one on members of this community as they wadde through the trauma, the confusion, the suspicion, the guilt. Julia Garner plays the alcoholic teacher of the class that disappeared. Cary Christopher plays Alex Lilly, the sole kid remaining. And Josh Brolin is in the mix too, as a dad besieged by strange dreams – including one of a giant assault rifle in the sky that doubles up as an alarm clock, in an image that set the internet ablaze with debate.What does it all mean? In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, Zach responds to the many different interpretations of the film among film fans – including the suggestion that it's a response to the ongoing epidemic of school shootings in America. He tells me what he's come to understand he was working through while writing the script – and we dig into details about his original draft for the film, titled Dancing In The Head, which began with 27 suicides and at one point had an entire segment dedicated to the inner-life of the film's terrifying antagonist, Aunt Gladys.

“Food is a human right that should be supported by everybody, no children should go to bed hungry, even less in a conflict." Caitriona Perry speaks to José Andrés world-renowned chef and humanitarian. Andrés was born in Spain and trained as a chef before moving to the United States, where he helped popularise Spanish cuisine and built a global restaurant empire. He later founded World Central Kitchen, an organisation that has transformed the way humanitarian aid responds to crisis, delivering meals in war zones, after natural disasters, and in communities where hunger is a daily reality. José Andrés reflects on food, power, and why feeding people is inseparable from dignity and justice. The Interview brings you conversations with people shaping our world, from all over the world.

Catherine Opie talks to Ben Luke about her influences—from writers to musicians, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Over more than three decades, Opie, who was born in 1961 in Sandusky, Ohio, and lives today in Los Angeles, has created photographic portraits, cityscapes and landscapes that have borne witness to social and political conditions and tensions—particularly in her native United States—while also reflecting a deeply personal response to people and community. Fundamental to her work is an exploration, as a queer woman and as a documentarian photographer, of the nuanced, multifarious nature of identity, most prominently in LGBTQ+ communities, but also far beyond them. She has committed from her earliest mature images to the idea that, as she has phrased it, “Without representation, there is no visibility”—a belief that remains more vital than ever in the US and across the world in the 2020s. And that visibility is manifest not just in the portraiture for which she is best known, but also in the central place that architecture and interiors play in her work. She repeatedly calls our attention to the juxtaposition of the built environment and the construction of bodies and identities. So she documents her surroundings in the fullest sense: she depicts the people she loves, knows and meets; the spaces they occupy; and the broader physical and social environment around them. Ultimately, she hopes, through encountering her art, viewers will gain a better understanding of humanity in all its complexity. She reflects on her early discovery and desire to make pictures, aged nine, and the key figures that helped her choose to become an artist. She talks about the kinship between poetry and art and the fundamental importance, whatever her subject, of human connection. She reflects on artists as diverse as Holbein and Leonardo and Gerhard Richter and Lynette Yiadom-Boakye, on the influence of writers including Joan Didion and Octavia Butler, and on her admiration for Chloe Zhao and Chris Marker. Plus, she gives insights into her life in the studio (and darkroom) and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?Catherine Opie: To Be Seen, National Portrait Gallery, London, 5 March-31 May 2026; Catherine Opie: The Pause that Dreams Against Erasure, The Fridericianum, Kassel, Germany, 19 July 2026.

At this year's SBIFF, 4 Oscar nominated directors were awarded with the Outstanding Directors Awards. KCSB's Kelly Darroch and Inesha Ranasinghe-Denish spoke with Chloe Zhao and Joachim Trier on the red carpet.

Ten odcinek podcastu mierzy się z trzeba równoważnymi tematami, chociaż oryginalny plan był nieco inny. Omawiamy, kolejno, bardzo niezależny film Iron Lung (ekranizacja gry, dzieło sławnego youtubera Markipliera), bardzo zależny, nagradzany i poważny film Hamnet (ekranizacja książki, dzieło Chloe Zhao), a także zaskakująco udany i skromny serial Wonder Man (prawie-ekranizacja komiksu, dzieło typa od Shang-Chi i nowego Spider-Mana). Są spoilery, są przemyślenia, jest zabawa. Zapraszamy.

Writer-director Blake Winston Rice – whose latest short film Disc is playing this week in the Clemont-Ferrand Short Film Festival – is so enraptured by Chloe Zhao's swooning historical drama Hamnet that he had to bring it onto the show. Your genial host Norm Wilner can see how that could happen.

To record an episode about Hamnet, the new film from Chloe Zhao, or not to record an episode about Hamnet? That was the question – and a question I answered in a heartbeat when Chloe's team reached out late last year about chatting with the Nomadland writer-director. The historical drama, starring Jesse Buckley and Paul Mescal, takes viewers inside the anguish of William Shakespeare and his wife, Agnes Hathaway, after the death of one of their children in 1596. In the movie, Shakespeare throws himself into his work as part of his mourning process, resulting in one of the best-loved and most influential plays of all time. In doing so, though, Agnes is left alone with just ghosts, grief and her remaining children – themselves angry and confused at Hamnet's death – for company. Adapted from an acclaimed novel by Irish author Maggie O'Farrell, who joined Chloe and I for our conversation, the film is as emotionally bruising as they come. It's a tale about parenthood, personhood, how storytellers process pain through their art and what it means to witness that. The film ends with this remarkable final scene shot at London's historic Globe Theatre in which Shakespeare has transmuted his pain into a play that both pours salt into the deepest imaginable wound for Agnes, and seemingly offers her some closure. In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, the three of us get into the evolution of that moment, and other key scenes from a film that won Best Drama and Best Actress for Buckley at the Golden Globes and is expected to be in the mix at this year's Oscars. Maggie talks about the connections between this story and her other work, such as I Am, I Am, I Am – which also dealt with mortality. And Chloe reveals how she uses colour as a storytelling weapon in Hamnet – with red representing Agnes and inky blues representing the Bard himself.Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

Eternals is a noble misfire for the MCU. Directed by winner of the 2021 Best Director Oscar, Chloe Zhao, it attempts to elevate the superhero movie genre. One problem: It's super boring. Eternals, which rambles on for an excruciating 156 minutes, never finds its footing. Plagued by bland characters and a distinct lack of charm, it is never able to distinguish itself among the sea of Marvel movies. And bad news for the House of Mouse, Eternals tepid reviews were only half the problem. Those were trumped by its lack of box office bucks. The latter has more than likely doomed these immortal warriors to the catalogue of one and dones. Now, sit back, stare into the middle distance with a Nordic Jam Lager from Two Pitchers, and put Pip in the drunk tank! The Thunderous Wizard, Chumpzilla, and Bling Blake are riding Deviants across the monochrome sky! This Week's Segments: Introduction/Plot Breakdown – The end was just the beginning!

Ga er bij een bezoekje aan het voor 8 Oscars genomineerde Hamnet (van Nomadland-regisseur Chloe Zhao) vanuit dat de bioscoopzaal wordt gevuld met snottergeluiden. Het filmdrama met Jessie Buckley en Paul Mescal als William Shakespeare is dé tearjerker van dit moment. Snotterden de MovieInsiders mee? 'To weep or not to weep, that is the question.'

Grab your tissues and your popcorn (but maybe chew quietly) because the Cinebuds are back to talk about some of the season's biggest buzz films.Dori and Kpolly start with a dive into the beautifully heartbreaking Hamnet from visionary director Chloe Zhao. They explore this historical-fiction tale of William Shakespeare's family, featuring stunning performances by Jesse Buckley and Paul Mescal, plus a breakout turn by young Jacob Jupe. Be prepared for a symphony of sniffles as the hosts discuss how this film masterfully tackles love, grief and the special sauce that comes from a filmmaker's personal connection to the material.Then, it's time to talk about the Oscars' biggest oversight: Korean dark comedy No Other Choice. Despite rave reviews and a Golden Globe nomination, this "will he get away with it" thriller starring Lee Byung-hun was surprisingly snubbed by the Academy. Plus, the buds share some deep cuts to add to your queue, including the horror-comedy Dust Bunny and a vintage Lucille Ball thriller, Lured.#####Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Garage Door Company.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 64-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 32,381 on turnover of $8.5--billion N-T. With contract chipmaker Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing regaining its footing and rebounding from a session earlier, shares in Taiwan closed at another record high Tuesday. The buying in TSMC shares spread to other semiconductor stocks, with investors betting that orders for more mature chip processes would shift, as TSMC cuts that capacity (生產能力) in favor of more advanced chip manufacturing. Some flight cancellation fees increased to 30% The Civil Aeronautics Administration says that cancellation fees for domestic offshore flights during holiday periods will be raised to up to 30% of the ticket price. The new tiered (分層的) fee system will take effect in March, and be applied for the first time on the Labor Day long weekend. Under current rules, domestic offshore tickets sold for holidays for three days or more carry restrictions (限制)… such as "valid only for the booked flight" or "expired if unused" with cancellation fees capped at 10% if refunds are requested before departure. But under the new rules, cancellation fees will vary based on how close the refund request is to the flight's departure time. Officials say, the changes are intended to curb seat hoarding (囤積) during peak travel periods… as some passengers book multiple flights and cancel later. Spain to Grant Legal Status to Immigrants Spain will grant legal status to potentially hundreds of thousands of immigrants living and working in the country without authorization. Spain's migration minister says the government plans to amend immigration laws by expedited (加急的) decree, offering legal residency and work permits for up to one year. This applies to those who arrived before Dec. 31, 2025, and have lived in Spain for at least five months without a criminal record. The minister says the measure could benefit an estimated 500-thousand people. Many are from countries in Latin America and Africa and work in agriculture, tourism or service jobs, backbones of Spain's booming economy. Landmark social media trial underway in California Social media giant TikTok has settled a lawsuit claiming the platform deliberately addicts and harms children. However, Meta and YouTube are still facing similar claims as a landmark (具有重大意義的，標誌性的) trial gets underway in Los Angeles. Ira Spitzer reports. BAFTA Nominations Announced and finally….. Paul Thomas Anderson's politically charged action thriller “One Battle After Another” leads the race for the British Academy Film Awards, with 14 nominations including acting nods for five of its cast. Ryan Coogler's blues-steeped vampire epic “Sinners” is close behind with 13 nominations, while Chloe Zhao's Shakespearean tragedy “Hamnet” and Josh Safdie's ping-pong odyssey (漫長而驚險的旅程) “Marty Supreme” have 11 apiece. The winners will be announced at a Feb. 22 ceremony in London. The U.K. prizes — officially called the EE BAFTA Film Awards — often provide clues about who will triumph at Hollywood's Academy Awards.

Happy 2026, Vintage Sand fans! Thank you for taking time away from looking for real estate opportunities in Greenland to join us for Episodes 65 and 66, our first of 2026. Herein, Team Vintage Sand returns one last time to the source of some of our most popular episodes: Danny Peary's hard-to-find 1993 classic "Alternate Oscars". In the past, we have used Peary's model to approach the Best Picture Academy Awards from every decade going back to the 1930's. Collect them all! For this episode, we wrap up this series with the most recent complete decade, the 2010's. First, a caveat: we began this podcast eight years ago, in the spring of 2018, which means that we have already discussed many of today's films in a number of different contexts already. We did our Best of the Teens in early 2020, and recently did our Top 10 of the Century so far, wherein many of the films we're talking about today are contained. Add in that we did episodes on the best of 2018 and 2019, respectively, in those years, and you get the sense that we have already covered this ground several times. But like all good film fans, we're completists, so we conclude this series of episodes with these two, which will focus on 2010 to 2014 and 2015 to 2019 respectively. Mercifully, perhaps, these episodes are shorter than most others we've done, simply because, as mentioned, this is terrain we have already covered several times. The teens were clearly a transitional time for film, especially in Hollywood. The foreign market came to dominate, as did the teen market, which led to a kind of lowest common denominator for American film in these years. Throw in the uncertainties created by the rise of streaming and the changes in where and how people watch film, and you have…well, it's still a little too early to tell what the 2010's will look like to film historians, if there are indeed any film historians left. That being said, it's clear that the decade featured some of the greatest films ever made, ones that will stand the test of time and will continue to be watched long into the future. In many ways, the Mexican New Wavers dominated the decade, winning half of the Best Director Oscars for the whole decade: Del Toro for "Shape of Water", Cuarón for "Gravity" and "Roma", and Iñárritu for "Birdman" and "The Revenant". And of course, the stunning triumph of "Parasite" ended a decade in film that many were ready to write off (and got rid of the bad taste left behind by "Green Book" the previous year). It was also a decade that saw the arrival of some wildly innovative and talented filmmakers, among them Chloe Zhao, Ryan Coogler, Ava Duvernay, Jordan Peele, Greta Gerwig, Steve McQueen, and Damien Chazelle, plus amazing directors who transcended often marginalized genres like Ari Aster, Alex Garland, Robert Eggers and Denis Villeneuve. We also saw some great works from directors who came of age in the 90's and early 00's like David Fincher, the Coens, Spike Lee, Christopher Nolan, Todd Haynes and the Andersons, both Wes and PTA divisions. And for the icing on the cake, we got some brilliant work from the old guard Hollywood New Wavers like Martin Scorsese (who just seemed to pick up steam as the decade went on), Steven Spielberg, (at least with" Lincoln"), Terrence Malick and, most surprisingly, Paul Schrader. So make yourselves comfortable, have yourselves one of those lovely pastries from Mendl's, and join us for our final foray into the world of Best Picture Alternate Oscars!

A study led by the University of Oxford shows a 20-fold rise in the proportion of women over 25 using ADHD medication in the UK. The study looked at 5 countries - Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain and the UK - showing use has more than tripled in 13 years - the UK having the highest relative increase. To unpick this, Anita Rani is joined by Amanda Kirby, former chair of the ADHD foundation and Emeritus Professor of neurodevelopmental disorders at the University of South Wales and Kat Brown, author of It's Not a Bloody Trend, who was diagnosed with ADHD aged 37 and uses medication.The Oscar nominations are out and to celebrate we revisit our recent interviews with nominees, Hamnet director Chloe Zhao and Kate Hudson, who's up for best actress for her film Song Sung Blue. Author Claire Lynch discusses her debut novel, A Family Matter, which recently won the Nero Book Award's prize for debut fiction. Having spent her career teaching literature in universities, the author of non-fiction book Small: On Motherhoods, was inspired by her discovery that 90% of lesbian mothers in 1980s' divorce cases lost legal custody of their children. The novel alternates between 1982 and the present day and explores love and loss, intimacy and injustice, custody and care.Miscarriage in the early stages of pregnancy is common. But clinical NHS practices for disposal of pregnancy tissue following an early stage miscarriage can sometimes appear to be at odds with some women's wishes and are not conducive to inclusive care. That's according to a new study published in Social Science and Medicine and reported in the British Medical Journal. Susie Kilshaw, Professor of Medical Anthropology at University College London, spent nearly two years observing miscarriage care inside one of England's NHS Foundation Trusts and interviewing women about their experiences. Susie explains how she found that the choices available often didn't match what women want.Can video games be used for good?

Hey EICapulets! To Brooklyn, or to Beckham? That is this week's question.There was simply no way of doing this episode without discussing the biggest news of the week, which is a pretty big statement, all things considered. On Monday evening, Brooklyn Beckham took to his Instagram and posted a series of stories stating that he does not want to reconcile with his family. This comes after years of speculation about a rift between the Beckhams and Brooklyn and Nicola, a lot of which started after their 2022 wedding.We discuss how and why this has taken the internet by storm, and what we make of it all.Next up! Chloe Zhao's Hamnet is based on Maggie O'Farrell's novel of the same name. The fictional story follows Agnes Hathaway (played by Jessie Buckley) and William Shakespeare (played by Paul Mescal) as they lose their son Hamnet to the plague- and how this tragedy births the play Hamlet. Very little is known about Shakespeare's life, so this story has been compared to fan-fiction. But just a lil fact check: several other plays, including two comedies, Much Ado About Nothing and As You Like It came between the death of Hamnet and the creation of Hamlet, according to The New Yorker.Since the film's release there's been a lot of claims it's "grief porn". We get into it.And lastly, whoever is doing 2016's marketing needs a raise, after a nostalgia-based trend caused what feels like the entire internet to look back a decade to the days of Pokemon Go, Brexit, Beyonce's Lemonade, Trump 1.0, Kylie lip kits and chokers to name but a few big moments and trends. For those of us who were old enough to own phones and participate in the culture and social media back then, throwbacks are aplenty. For those who missed it the first time around, FOMO is in full force. Harper's Bazaar has called 2016 the “last good year”, and Glamour suggested it might be the last time we felt “hopeful”. According to TikTok, searches for 2016 surged by 454% in the first week of the new year and about 229 million posts have been made using their 2016 filter.

Don't worry, folks — the Empire Podteam may be engaged elsewhere today (Friday, January 9), preparing to do the live show at Kings Place, London, that marks our 700th episode. But we'd never let you down, and let a Friday go without a dose of Empire Podcast goodness. Which brings us to this interview special, in which Helen O'Hara sits down on Zoom with Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal, the stars of Chloe Zhao's emotionally devastating drama, Hamnet (in cinemas from today), about the tragedy that befell William Shakespeare and his wife, Agnes; and then, as James Vanderbilt's WWII (well, post-WWII) drama, Nuremberg, hits Sky Cinema, we have a chat between Vanderbilt and Chris Hewitt about the former's determination to make the movie, and much, much more. Episode 700 will be in your feeds by the end of the weekend, but we hope this tides you over until then. Enjoy.

We have a Hamnet special for you on Soundtracking, as first writer / director Chloe Zhao and stars Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley. Based on Maggie O'Farrell's novel - who also worked on the script - it tells the story of how the horrendous tragedy that strikes Shakespeare and his wife, Agnes, inspires him to write Hamlet. Hamnet is scored by friend of the show Max Richter, and we'll hear plenty of his music throughout the episode.

Sean and Amanda are joined by Joanna Robinson on today's show to cover Chloe Zhao's adaptation of ‘Hamnet,' starring Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal.

Chloé Zhao was the second woman to ever win an Oscar for Best Director, for her 2020 film “Nomadland.” After taking a wide turn to create the Marvel supernatural epic “Eternals,” Zhao has taken another intriguing change of direction with “Hamnet,” based on Maggie O'Farrell's novel about how William Shakespeare coped with the death of his only son. In conversation with the New Yorker staff writer Michael Schulman, Zhao discusses the role that nature plays in her filmmaking, from the American West to the forests of Britain; the process of adapting manga to film; and how neurodivergence informs her creative process.New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday.

Hamnet, the acclaimed novel by Maggie O'Farrell, is now a major film. The story imagines the life and death of Shakespeare's son, Hamnet, whose loss would later echo through one of his most famous tragedies, Hamlet. O'Farrell joins director and co-writer Chloé Zhao to reveal how they adapted the novel for the big screen. With Jessie Buckley as Agnes and Paul Mescal as William, the film reframes the Shakespeare family story as one of deep love, rupturing grief, and artistic creation. O'Farrell and Zhao discuss developing the screenplay together, interpreting Shakespeare as a husband and father, building the film's immersive natural world, and shaping an unforgettable Globe Theatre sequence that anchors the emotional arc of the story. O'Farrell and Zhao talk about adaptation, artistry, and how a 400-year-old loss continues to inspire new ways of imagining Shakespeare's life and legacy. From the Shakespeare Unlimited podcast.
