“Make a mark... and then fade away.” Join your favorite TransAtlantic podcasting crew – Ian, Megs & Liam (B-Tech Kev had to see a man about an elephant) – as we trade our spy gear for trumpets, film reels, and copious amounts of debauchery for our 275th episode covering Babylon (2022). We're swapping Chimera viruses for jazz-fueled chaos and slow-motion gunfights for full-blown cinematic mayhem as we discuss: How Babylon might be the most Damien Chazelle movie that ever Damien Chazelle'd. Does this film capture the magic and madness of early Hollywood—or is it just chaotic noise? Is Manny Torres a true dreamer… or just a wide-eyed bystander to Hollywood's self-destruction... or is he a corrupted soul that we overlook? Apparently there's a rule about taking Class-A drugs with company (well, in Act I anyways) How large is the demand for sweeping, three-hour epics about the birth of movies? Which Babylon character we'd most likely be—and who's definitely channeling peak "trainwreck energy"  Is this an underappreciated masterpiece—or an overindulgent fever dream of excess? Is Babylon a love letter to cinema or a cautionary tale wrapped in champagne and elephant dung? We've got questions about giant parties, sudden snake fights, drug-fueled breakdowns, and how much elephant content is too much. At what point is the film in on the joke it's making and at what point does that film become the joke? We're joined by BFF of the BFE: James DeGuzman who tells us why this film is so much more than the punchline film critics have mmade it out to be Whether Babylon is the Best Film Ever.

Damien Chazelle escribió el guion para un corto previo con algunas escenas claves del film. El montaje del es uno de sus puntos fuertes. La entrada del profesor en la sala de ensayo, el silencio reinante ante su llegada a la hora exacta, plano del reloj de pared, los zapatos relucientes y las pisadas en el parqué, trombones, clarinetes, y afinaciones, hasta que la calva de Fletcher brilla y su dedo índice marca el compás. ¡No es mi puto tempo!, este hombre no perdona los errores, y utiliza la presión, el castigo para intentar sacar lo mejor de sus aprendices, la excelencia. ¿Merece la pena esa vejación? El profesor de música (J K Simmons) asegura que “Haz hecho un buen trabajo” es la peor frase de un idioma. Como el buenismo actual en la enseñanza a todos los niveles está titulando a mastuerzos a los que ya la vida pondrá en su sitio. En cualquier caso, tampoco es eso, los métodos del profesor de jazz no son los más ortodoxos, aunque a su alumno en la batería, parece irle la marcha. Una relación perversa entre alumno e instructor, dependencia que no deja al espectador indiferente, con algún exceso que está de más. No era necesario que el chico llegara sangrante, tras un accidente de su coche alquilado, un latigazo cervical, y con las baquetas a cuestas se arrastra hasta el teatro. Demasiado fuerte el Gong. Chazelle busca el impacto visual y emocional, y lo consigue, claro está, a base de llagas, tiritas, y guantazos en la cara. Un film de gestos, trabajo eficiente de los dos actores, Simmons y Miles Teller. Maestro y alumno se retroalimentan, respiran una obsesión mutua, en su reguero de pérdidas y sinsabores dos narcisistas se entienden. Esta noche nos desatamos tras los bombos y los platillos, y tocamos al ritmo de Buddy Rich…Chari Medina, Raúl Gallego, Zacarías Cotán y Salvador Limón

Emilio, Madeline, and Julian are joined by drummer Rob Mitzner to begin a new episode cycle on films featuring winners of the Best Supporting Actor or Actress Oscars, with a "View-nanimous" entry on director Damien Chazelle's 2014 breakthrough film, "Whiplash." Starring Miles Teller and J.K. Simmons, the latter of whom won the requisite Oscar, the film memorably portrays student drummer Andrew Neiman's struggle to impress his autocratic band instructor, Terence Fletcher, and the group filter their own experiences as musicians through their aptitude for cinematic detail to assess the film's spectrum of musical and emotional realism. While "Whiplash" was a hit upon release and highly lauded during awards season, it has always been polarizing among musicians, and some of those differing views are articulated in this very conversation. Plus, did anyone in the group ever have a teacher like Fletcher? Is Miles Teller's drumming accurate?

Editors Dean Zimmerman ACE and Shane Reid DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE editors, Dean Zimmerman ACE and Shane Reid are the "buddies" in the cutting room of what is shaping up to be the biggest, R-rated buddy movie of all time.  Zimmerman joined this film with two other Shawn Levy / Ryan Reynolds films to his credit, but it would be Mrs. Pool (Blake Lively) who would be Shane Reid's connection into the "Merc With a Mouth" franchise. Deadpool's peaceful existence comes crashing down in DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE when the Time Variance Authority recruits him to help safeguard the multiverse.  He soon unites with his would-be pal, Wolverine, to complete the mission and save his world from an existential threat. DEAN ZIMMERMAN, ACE DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE finds Dean collaborating once again with director and longtime friend, Shawn Levy.  The two have been working together for over twenty years on projects like the NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM franchise and a little series called STRANGER THINGS.  More recently, the two have joined forces with Ryan Reynolds for FREE GUY (2021) and THE ADAM PROJECT (2022).   Zimmerman and Levy are currently working on the much-anticipated final season of STRANGER THINGS.  Dean's father, Don Zimmerman, is a highly accomplished editor in his own right.   (yes, I totally hacked this from the write-up on Dean I did for THE ADAM PROJECT) SHANE REID As a partner of the award-winning post house Exile Edit, Shane has been nominated for, and won, multiple awards for his work in the commercial space with top brands including Apple, Adidas, BMW, Hennessy, Audi and the Olympics.  He quickly became one of the most trusted short form editors, working with such directors as Damien Chazelle, Terrence Malick, Andrew Dominik, Jason Reitman, Craig Gillespie, Blake Lively, John Hillcoat & Chloe Zhao. He has also cut multiple music videos for Taylor Swift, Paul McCartney, Florence + The Machine and Kamasi Washington. In 2018, Reid edited on the film A Hidden Life for director Terrence Malick.  He recently cut the short film I'm on Fire for director Michael Spiccia which premiered at the 2022 Toronto and Clermont-Ferrand International Festivals, as well as Sony Pictures' GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZERN EMPIRE.

Join Alex and guest host Dr. Simon Rogoff as they explore the blatant narcissism in Damien Chazelle's jazz drumming masterpiece Whiplash (2014). Starring Miles Teller as Andrew Nieman, the jazz student, and J.K. Simmons as Fletcher, the jazz teacher, this film goes hard. Fletcher is the worst of the worst teacher, who justifies his actions by thinking he'll one day create the best jazz musician, while Andrew will top at nothing to become the next Charlie Parker. Explorations include, narcissism, of course, but also resiliency, perfectionism, and whether there are two narcissists in the movie, or just the one (Fletcher). Come fort he amazing jazz and jazz drumming, stay for the psychological exploration!

Tinseltown beckons as we delight in two modern classics poised to define for audiences the breadth of America's cinematic history: Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Babylon. But before we pontificate on these recent epics, we enjoy a light Blue Plate Special sampling discussing new releases Kinds of Kindness, Horizon: An American Saga- Chapter 1, and MaXXXine, as well as paying tribute to the late screen legend Shelley Duvall. We eventually shuffle in to see the two splashy films located atop our glittering marquee: listen as we situate Quentin Tarantino's look at TV cowboys squaring off against hippies in 1969 Hollywood towards the top of his filmography, puzzle over where Damien Chazelle's boozy Jazz Age saga leaves him at this stage of his still young career, and generally revel in both films' literal and figurative rages against the dying of the light.

Damien Chazelle first started seriously considering a film about old Hollywood back in 2009, long before he made La La Land. And even when the writer/director had channelled his energies into that film, he still had Babylon in mind: a hugely ambitious, expensive, three hour film that needed an R-rating! In the case of Everybody's Talking About Jamie, the challenge with the hit stage show was bringing it to the big screen at some scale - in spite of a truncated budget. Then there was the small matter of a pandemic getting in the way too... Stories of both are told in this episode... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hello friends and familiars! The GenreCast is back with more Meta May shenanigans. This week, it's big, it's bombastic... it's Babylon. And we're not alone. Our old friend Caleb Masters, from over at The Cinematropolis and the Cinematic Schematic, joins us to break this one down. Damien Chazelle's follow up to First Man is an epic look back at Hollywood during its transitional period from the late 20s into the 30s. Somewhat divisive upon its release, the film has amassed a strong cult following. We evaluate what Babylon brings to the table, as well as dive deep into analysis on the themes and tropes running rampant throughout. So, grab your guy, your gal, or your pal and join us as we analyze Babylon.  TIMESTAMPS 00:30 - Introductions and Synopsis 05:49 - Quick Babylon Reviews 19:45 - Expanding the Syllabus 36:54 - Analysis 1:03:50 - Shelf or Trash 1:07:28 - Wrap Up and Next Week's Film
