On this episode of the podcast Phillip is joined once again by Antonio Palacios from The Cultworthy Podcast https://thecultworthy.com/. The two of them have come together to discuss the 1973 Swedish film Thriller: A Cruel Picture starring Christina Lindberg. Phillip starts the show by reading the general information about the movie with some trivia thrown in. It's then time for Listener Opinions from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Antonio and Phillip then have a great discussion about both versions of the film, and the great character that Christina Lindberg plays. They answer the question of whether they noticed anything in this movie that Tarantino might have liked or used in a film. It's then time to individually rate the movie. Then they answer another question about whether they would buy this movie, rent it, or find it for free. Phillip then gives his Phil's Film Favorite of the Week; Cinema Paradiso (1988) (5 stars). Antonio then shares a couple of movies that he has been watching recently; Yanks (1979) & Serial (1980). Then Phillip talks about what's coming up next week, when he will be joined for the first time by Frank Mandosa from Reels on Film to discuss 1980's Cattle Annie and Little Britches. Thanks for listening.
[Reprise] Franklin and Kate are joined by the incredible Radha Blank—director, playwright, rapper, and friend of The Black List. Her debut feature, The 40-Year-Old Version, premiered at Sundance and earned her the Directing Award, making an unforgettable mark on the industry. The film is a deeply personal and hilarious take on reinvention and artistic expression. Radha takes us through her journey—from playwriting and rapping to stepping behind the camera for her first feature. We also dive into her early cinephile roots, exploring the films that shaped her storytelling, from The Landlord to Cinema Paradiso. Plus, she shares the moment she realized film was her true calling, and how her mother's love of cinema influenced her creative path.Questions? Comments? Criticism?

Today's poem is Cinema Paradiso by Claire Booker. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. Around what has become known as “awards season,” casual conversations are abuzz with talk of the year's movies. This week's episodes explore how poets take up movies as subjects — how the two art forms intertwine to make us feel more closely this life we share. In this episode, Major writes… “One of my favorite moments in Italian Cinema is the movie Cinema Paradiso. It finds a young boy named Toto as the helper of a film projectionist named Alfredo. To satisfy Church authorities, Alfredo has to cut out all depictions of physical contact between people before showing the films. Young Toto moves away from the town of his youth to become a film director himself. When Alfredo dies, he leaves behind for Toto to view a gorgeous collage of kisses from banned movies over the years. The reel of intimate moments is a beautiful display of personal desires set against a national agenda of religious and moral strictures.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

Writer/Producer/Cinema Paradiso superfan Stacy Traub (Black-ish/The Real O'Neals) makes her first appearance on the Patreon feed to discuss the Academy Award winning Italian drama CINEMA PARADISO.Having never seen the film before, Kenny offers a fresh take on the failures of the project.

“Life isn't like in the movies. Life... is much harder.”Talking About Cinema Paradiso with our guest, Special Effects Supervisor Chris ReynoldsIn this magical episode, we chat with veteran special effects artist and supervisor Chris Reynolds about his storied career bringing movies to life through innovative engineering and technology. Our focus is the classic Cinema Paradiso, a nostalgic ode to the glory days of cinema that inspired Chris from an early age.Chris has built an impressive 40-year career in special effects, rising from technician to supervisor. He regales us with tales of his early days at the BBC, where he cut his teeth on classics like Blackadder. From blowing up haggis to sculpting giant lips, Chris learned to create imaginative practical effects on the fly across every genre. His passion for storytelling shines through as he discusses favorite projects, including some he worked on like Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams, and others he didn't, like Battle of Britain.Turning to Cinema Paradiso, we unpack the magic of this film that celebrates the power of cinema to transport us. We all agree the performances are fantastic, especially Salvatore Cascio as the young Toto. And Ennio Morricone's iconic score ties it all together. The ending montage of kisses cut by the priest is pure movie magic. Chris gives the inside scoop on the fire sequence, rating its mixed effectiveness from a special effects supervisor's perspective. He also shares which version he prefers between the Director's Cut and the international release.Overall, Cinema Paradiso captures a sense of childlike wonder and nostalgia for the romanticism of old Hollywood. Chris gives us an insider's view into the art and craft of moviemaking.

A guest who needs no introduction, Jon Hamm, dives into the 1988 Italian film, Cinema Paradiso, directed by Guiseppe Tornatore. The film begins when Salvatore di Vita, a superstar filmmaker in Rome, recalls his childhood in a small Sicilian village during the aftermath of World War II. With his father lost at war, young Salvatore forms a deep friendship with Alberto, the projectionist at the local cinema, and falls in love with film. As a teenager growing up in St. Louis, Jon's moviegoing was primarily driven by his burning desire to escape the house. Nevertheless, Cinema Paradiso captured his imagination and has continued to resonate with him throughout his life. We also learn how Silence of the Lambs left a bloody impression, and the Cub Scout lesson that fuels his stratospheric career. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
