Podcast appearances and mentions of Colin Firth

What does 2017's KINGSMAN: THE GOLDEN CIRCLE (aka Kingsman 2) have to do with New Year's Eve, the holiday season, or even anything in the month of December? NOTHING!  But our original choice wasn't streaming on any services this month, so we decided to finally circle around back to one of our fav fake presidential actors, the legendary Bruce Greenwood, last seen (by us) as the potus in NATIONAL TREASURE: BOOK OF SECRETS (aka National Treasure 2). This time out Bruce is the unnamed "President of the United States" in an R-rated, edgy, action comedy from a true British Knight, director and co-writer Matthew Vaughn, surrounded by a impressive cast including Colin Firth, Mark Strong, Halle Berry, Julianne Moore, Channing Tatum, Pedro Pascal, Emily Mortimer, and introducing the one and only Sir Elton John, in maybe his most outlandish performance ever in front of a camera. Find us on most social media sites @Fake_President (Instagram, Bluesky, Threads) or email us at fakepresidents [at] gmail.com to join the convo and suggest our next subject!

2025 marks 250 years since the birth of Jane Austen, the English writer whose finely tuned observations of Regency life shaped the modern novel. But perhaps more notably for Screenshot, it's also 30 years since Colin Firth walked out of a lake and straight into the nation's hearts, in the BBC's Pride and Prejudice miniseries.Three decades on from the ‘Austenmania' of 1995, Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode explore Jane Austen adaptations past and present. Do screen versions of novels like Emma and Sense and Sensibility offer a cosy retreat from the modern world - or do they still have something to say in the present moment? Mark speaks to film writer and researcher Lillian Crawford about various Austen triumphs and missteps on screen, from numerous incarnations of Emma, to Netflix's recent update on her last novel, Persuasion. He also speaks to playwright Nick Dear about an adaptation many Austen experts consider a high-water mark - the 1995 version of Persuasion, written by Dear and directed by Roger Michell for the BBC's Screen Two strand. Meanwhile, Ellen talks to Amy Heckerling, writer and director of the classic 1995 comedy Clueless, which transplants Austen's novel Emma to a Beverly Hills high school. And she also speaks to writer-director Celine Song, whose recent film Materialists stars Dakota Johnson as a professional matchmaker - and unmistakably bears the influence of Austen.

I Klassikern zoomar kulturjournalisten Hedvig Weibull in på Austens roman ”Stolthet och fördom”, eller närmare bestämt tv-serien ”Stolthet och fördöm” med Colin Firth och Jennifer Ehle...Programledare: Lisa BergströmProducent: Henrik Arvidsson

Jane Austens roman Stolthet och fördom från 1813 är en älskad klassiker, men lika älskad är filmatiseringen som gjordes 1995. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Det är ett välkänt faktum att en rik singelman måste behöva en fru!Även om tv-serien, med Jennifer Ehle och Colin Firth i huvudrollerna, följer romanen noga tar den sig viss konstnärlig frihet i just Colin Firths tolkning av Mr Darcy. I en ordlös scen som gått till historien tar han sig i bara skjortan ett dopp i sin sjö på godset Pemberley.Visst kan serien kallas tjejig, med alla underbara kostymer, men kläderna spelar roll och de speglar empirens ideal. Vi kan också lära att den sanna kärleken uppstår mellan två själar, inte genom förförelse eller för att den ena personen kan erbjuda ett gott parti.Var med och fira Jane Austens 250-års jubileum och återupplev de klassiska replikerna från serien och Carl Davis ljuvliga musik från serien i den här Klassikern av Hedvig Weibull.

Late Nights at BlockbusterPrepare to be bewitched, body and soul, as our newest Late Nights at Blockbuster is on Pride and Prejudice. Laurie comes out of retirement for her favorite book and movie, lending some feminine sensibilities to the proceedings. She can't wait to talk about Colin Firth, even though he isn't in this movie, and compare the Bennett's to her own family. Laurie schools us on the subtlety of the Darcy “hand flexing” and we spend the rest of the episode making fun of it. We had a lot of the same people in our acting categories but in a lot of different places. Laurie makes it well known who her favorite Mr. Darcy is throughout.Intro/Outro music by friend of the podcast Seth Gilbertson.Find more music at iTunes (⁠https://music.apple.com/us/artist/seth-gilbertson/1155231950⁠)and YouTube (⁠https://www.youtube.com/user/sethgilbertson/videos⁠)

Le Patient Anglais, The English Patient, dʹAnthony Minghella sorti en 1996 est un film passionnant, passionnel, qui a touché le cœur de million de spectatrices et de spectateurs et récolté une floppée dʹOscars. Tiré dʹun roman, lʹHomme flambé de Michael Ondaatje, Le Patient anglais raconte une histoire dʹamour fou sur fond de Seconde Guerre mondiale Une histoire entre les sables du Sahara, les rues grouillantes du Caire, et les collines verdoyantes de la Toscane. Un conte fait dʹintrigues et dʹaventures où des personnages se croisent autour dʹun homme, énigmatique, un grand brûlé qui, étonnamment, va bouleverser le cours de leur vie. Amoureux du roman, Anthony Minghella en tire un film épique qui porte en lui le souffle de Casablanca et de Lawrence dʹArabie. Un film à grande échelle avec un casting exceptionnel : Ralph Fiennes dans le rôle du patient anglais Kristin Scott Thomas, Juliette Binoche, Willem Dafoe, Colin Firth et Naveen Andrews. Et ça plaît. Lyrique, épique, romantique, le film détonne dans le paysage cinématographique des années 90. Il est plébiscité par la critique et par le public. Il reçoit de nombreux Oscars en 1997 dont celui du meilleur film, du meilleur réalisateur, du meilleur son, de la meilleure musique, de la meilleure actrice de second rôle pour Juliette Binoche et le césar du Meilleur film étranger. Le Patient anglais, ce sont des êtres détruits qui tente le tout pour le tout dans ce monastère toscan en 1945 pour se reconstruire, enfin, et raconteur leur vérité. Il ne nous reste plus mettre nos oreilles dans leurs pas et à suivre leur destinée.

Aujourdʹhui jʹarrête de fumer, jʹarrête de boire, je fais du sport, je fais un régime, jʹarrête mon régime et surtout jʹarrête de faire des listes et je relis le Journal de Bridget Jones. Bridget Jonesʹs Diary, le Journal de Bridget Jones, est une comédie britannique réalisée par Sharon Maguire, sortie en 2001. Cʹest lʹadaptation cinématographique réussie du bestseller, le roman du même nom dʹHelen Fielding, publié lui en 1996. A lʹécran, Hugh Grant, utilisé à contre-emploi dans le rôle dʹun salaud séducteur et infidèle, Colin Firth en anglais morose et discret et surtout Renée Zellweger en Bridget Jones. Oui, une Américaine, une Texane qui plus est, qui incarne lʹAnglaise la plus pulpeuse du moment, voilà de quoi créer un mini scandale Outre-Manche. Mais la comédienne américaine se donne à fond, prend du poids, apprend à se comporter comme une anglaise, et ça marche. Crédible, elle rallie tous les suffrages et fait de cette comédie romantique un classique. Classique, le mot nʹest pas trop fort, car en 2001, chacune et chacun peut se retrouver dans ce personnage un peu pataud, qui rêve de grand amour comme une midinette tout en assumant un côté femme forte. Surtout, elle navigue courageusement dans sa trentaine entre désillusions amoureuses, régimes, boulot, parents envahissants et amitiés débordantes. Saura-t-elle maitriser le chaos de sa vie affective, et celui quʹelle provoque systématiquement, cʹest là tout lʹenjeu du livre et du film. Véritable phénomène de société, le Journal de Bridget Jones est un coup de maitre, le passage réussi dʹun livre à lʹécran. Entre 2001 et 2002, le films est sélectionné 40 fois dans divers festivals et remportera 8 récompenses trouvant ainsi sa place dans lʹhistoire du cinéma. Ne reste plus quʹà nous plonger dans le quotidien hilarant et déprimant de Bridget en comptant les mégots, les calories, les verres dʹalcool et les amants.

We are wrapping Colin Firth month with What a Girl Wants – the best movie this month? Huge but true. We've got swoony Colin, Amanda Bynes doing her best and 2003 representing the only way it knows how (scarves as belts) Join our Patreon: patreon.com/chartsandheartsclub

This episode of How To Fail was recorded in front of a live audience at London's Barbican Theatre. Sally Phillips has appeared in a string of the most influential and hilarious comedy series of all time - from Smack The Pony, Miranda, The Thick of It and Veep. Not forgetting, of course, her star turn as Bridget Jones's best friend, Shazza, in the hugely popular movie franchise.  Alongside her professional success, Phillips has also been an important voice in the neurodivergent community. Her eldest son, Olly, has Down syndrome and Sally is a tireless campaigner for disability rights. So why, then, does she never feel she's made it as a ‘serious' actress? And why is she so obsessed with Clown School? And - pressing question - why have she and Colin Firth never been a thing? Over on Failing with Friends, Sally answers questions from the live audience at the Barbican: they discuss red and green flags in partners, and what Hugh Grant is REALLY like and whether Sally and Renée Zellweger really are friends or whether she might just be making it up?

Over on our Patreon, we regularly watch/read and discuss Shakespeare-adjacent media. Shakespeare in Love, written by Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard and directed by John Madden, follows a fictional love affair between William Shakespeare (Joseph Fiennes) and a noblewoman, Viola de Lesseps (Gwyneth Paltrow), during the writing of Romeo and Juliet. The film also features performances by Geoffrey Rush, Colin Firth, Ben Affleck and Judi Dench. Shakespeare in Love received 7 Oscars, including Best Picture at the 71st Academy Awards.  We originally released this episode in February 2023 as a Patreon-exclusive.

Oscar Month continues! Bev's couple of weeks off begins! She's not here to talk about The King's Speech, which is a classy movie that ended up being a huge hit, even though it's about a group of people that Ryan has never liked: the royals? A monarchy? In a democracy? Yet, credit where it's due, Tom Hooper does an admirable job of making a non-fan care about the king of England and his enunciation---and also Nazi-related---troubles. Colin Firth won gold for his work as the stuttering Prince Albert/King George VI who gets a job he never wanted while his supportive wife (Helena Bonham Carter) and unorthodox speech therapist (Geoffrey Rush) are just about his only support system. The King's Speech is often quite touching and it's even inspirational, showing a privileged man have to deal with confidence issues, loneliness, his uncaring fellow royals and duty to his country. So don't storm off in anger. Just tune into the 651st episode of Have You Ever Seen and listen to one man's speech...about a speech. Well, Actually: while Slumdog Millionaire started the trend of the entire cast & crew in attendance at the Oscars going up on stage when the film wins Best Picture, the entire LOTR: ROTK cast & crew DID go up on stage the year THEY won Best Picture. Also, Helena Bonham Carter plays "Bellatrix Lestrange" in the Harry Potter series, not "Beatrix". We are sponsored by the coffee that's fit for a king or a queen: Sparkplug Coffee.

In which Colin Firth's ghost and Hugh Grant's filmography take center stage. Also, for the curious and/or pedantic: - This movie's opening did not, in fact, beat Barbie's at the UK box office. But it did beat Oppenheimer, the new Captain America (no surprise there), and (of course) previous romcom box office records set by earlier Bridget Jones movies. - Kat's assertions about which book plot most closely matches which movie plot should not be taken very seriously, as, at the time of recording, she had not reread either book 1 or book 2 since the mid-2000s. Turns out both are adapted...with movie 2 possibly (and unfortunately) actually the more faithful?? Oof. - The very first Bridget Jones column can be read here.

Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy return to regular reviewing duties this week and they put a nine-spot on the board. There are a pair of documentaries involving Sly Stone (Sly Lives) and the Zep (Becoming Led Zeppelin). The director of Saint Frances & Ghostlight shows the horror of being a doctor (Rounding) while a young woman involved in one night stands may have been literally ghosted (The Dead Thing). Paolo Sorrentino has another tale of beauty (Parthenope) while Miles Teller & Anya Taylor-Joy snipe themselves into each other's hearts fighting monsters (The Gorge). Then it's a week of sequels including a continuation of Renee Zellweger's beloved character (Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy), everyone's favorite marmalade-loving bear (Paddington In Peru) and the tale of a new Captain and a new President (Captain America: Brave New World). 0:00 – Intro 1:13 - Becoming Led Zeppelin 7:54 - Rounding 17:02 - Sly Lives! 23:00 - The Dead Thing 32:25 - Parthenope 39:22 - Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy 55:43 - The Gorge 1:06:50 - Paddington in Peru 1:15:46 - Captain America: Brave New World 1:31:08 - Outro

THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture With the release of "Conclave," Ralph Fiennes is finally an Oscar nominee once again after nearly thirty years since his last nomination for Anthony Minghella's 1996 film "The English Patient." The epic romance WWII drama went on to win a leading 9 Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and was a critical and box office success. Starring Fiennes, Juliette Binoche, Willem Dafoe, Kristin Scott Thomas, Naveen Andrews, Colin Firth, Julian Wadham, and Jürgen Prochnowwe, the film has had a bit of a divisive reaction as the years have gone on.
