Masters of the Air on AppleTV+ is about the pilots who served in the 100th Bomb Group in the U.S. Air Force during World War II. Cinematographer Richard Rutkowski shot episodes 107 and 108, which included both aerial flying, bombing and imprisoned airmen at a German POW camp. From the beginning, Richard was impressed with how everything was organized on such a massive scale. The props, set design and costumes were extremely exact to the time period. “I really am attracted to stories that have authenticity in them,” says Richard. “And they put the authentic on camera. It is all exactly what it's meant to be, what it was at the time, as close as they can get.” Richard worked with director Dee Rees on their block of Masters of the Air. The prison camp scenes involved working with searchlights, mud and absolute darkness at night, with up to 250 people in a scene. He chose to light in a way that would emphasize the dim lighting, gray atmosphere and unhealthy look for the POWs. Some of the Tuskegee Airmen, the legendary African-American fighter pilots, are also brought to the POW camp and the prisoners are integrated into the previously racially-segregated fighting force. Shooting the action inside the planes involved large-scale LED volume screens surrounding the aircraft sections, with an LED roof overhead, which created most of the lighting for the scene. The actors were placed on a gimbal controlled articulated steel deck so they could react to the motion. The cameras tracked with the video system, and had GPS locators that allowed the background to respond to where the camera was so that it knew how much background to put in. Richard was the sole cinematographer on the FX series The Americans for several seasons. The Americans was about a Russian spy couple posing as Americans in suburban Washington D.C. during the Cold War in the 1980's. Richard established the look of the show, with the couple's “normal” DC life leaning into bolder primary colors, in a kind of red, white, and blue cleanliness. By contrast, in their double life as spies, Richard chose a grittier, darker and grainy look. On The Americans, Richard says he learned the value of letting the actors do their work. “(There is) an unspoken connection being made about whether a scene is moving well, whether a take is truly finished. I would learn to stop reaching for that cut button. No matter who said what, if the actor was in it, we don't cut. You leave the boom up, keep out of the frame. If the actor's in it, we're not cutting. We'll go till they're ready.” As a kid, Richard's father was a fine art painter and he grew up all over the country. He began making 16mm films in college and working with theatrical director Robert Wilson. After college, Richard started working on small budget films, working his way up through the camera department, including being a second assistant camera on School Ties with cinematographer Freddie Francis, a two time Oscar winner. After School Ties, Richard wrote Ed Lachman asking to work with him, and he went on to work with Ed on several movies. He feels that working your way up and learning all the different crafts in the camera department is a great education for a DP. Masters of the Air is available on AppleTV+.

¿Necesitas la mayor calidad en tu equipo? Normalmente, fotógrafos y videógrafas, siempre estamos mirando qué quipo comprar para mejorar la calidad de nuestros trabajos. Pero luego alucinamos con trabajos que sin saberlo están realizados con equipo antiguo. Y hablando de evitar errores, que mejor con agendar una consultoría de marketing o de técnica fotográfica con nosotros. Y así evitarte perder el tiempo. La primera mujer nominada al Oscar a mejor fotografía Y para abordar este tema hemos escogido la maravillosa y cruda Moodbound del 2017, dirigida por la estadounidense Dee Rees y fotografiada por la nominada Rachel Morrison con la que entro en la historia al ser la primera mujer en llevarse esta nominación. Moodbound es perfecta, para este episodio por dos cosas. Obviamente por su trabajo de fotografía, que tiene bebe mucho del trabajo de Dorothea Lange y por el equipo que uso para rodar toda la película. Y es que escogió ópticas antiguas por los "defectos" que tenían. Esto tendría que dar mucho que pensar. Y es justo lo que queremos fomentar en este episodio veraniego del podcast. ¿Te lo vas a perder?

Little Richard is a fixture of American culture, and if you were born after the 1950s, you may never have known a time when that wasn't the case. But chances are, even if you know Little Richard's name and larger-than-life persona, you still don't know the half of what he contributed to culture (and not just music culture). Lisa Cortes's documentary sets the record straight (well, okay, not straight…) and we have Juilliard ethnomusicology professor Fredara Hadley (who appears in the doc as an expert) here to help us talk it out.What's GoodAlonso - Blue Diamond Cocoa Dusted AlmondsFredara - Spring in New York = Horticulture time!Drea - Jury Duty on FreeveeITIDICa.)

In our second episode of our Oscars/Razzies mashup, we prove how professional we are by using co-host Jeff's backup phone voice memo audio because his file got royally screwed during our recording. Deepest apologies to you, and may God have mercy on his soul. We begin with a discussion of indie darling Palm Springs, starring Andy Samberg, Cristin Milioti and JK Simmons, available now on Hulu, and how enjoyable, moving, funny and rewatchable this film is. We then discuss a potential Razzie nominee (I'd bet against a nomination, but we'll see), The Last Thing He Wanted, starring Anne Hathaway, Rosie Perez, Ben Affleck, Willem Dafoe and Toby Jones. It was directed and co-written by Dee Rees, her first movie since Mudbound in 2017, bought in 2018 by Netflix, adapted from a successful Joan Didion, yet somehow got terrible reviews. Was it really that bad? Intro/Palm Springs (0:00) The Last Thing He Wanted (23:10) Music: soundcloud.com/dasein-artist. Beer: @cbarrozobar2019. Edited and produced by Dave Green.

In this episode, the boys reminisce on being able to go to the movies to see the latest and greatest movie releases. Or in Terren's case, the latest and lamest releases. This week the boys take a look at the biggest cucks of the year, including the Safdie Brothers' Oscar snubbed, "Uncut Gems" with Adam Sandler, and the not-by-choice-but-the-plague-is-still-here straight to Netflix release of Dee Rees', "The Last Thing He Wanted" starring Anne Hathaway and Ben Affleck.

Sean answers your Marvel questions!0:34 Alex WardHey Sean! Happy Fox acquisition day! I may be remembering wrong, but did Disney immediately announce more films when they purchased Lucasfilm? If so, do you think that may be why so many fans are expecting an announcement from Marvel about an X-Men or FF movie's sooner than it'll actually happen? Also, if they did immediately announce new Star Wars films, how was that situation different from this one? Just that Star Wars films were a given? Thanks Sean!7:25 Robert KlauserMaybe the Gunn “leave of absence” could be a silver lining considering James Gunn had interest in characters previously owned by Fox in the past. What are your thoughts that there could be some rewrites for the GotG Vol 3 script to include said characters?10:03 Tom DeMicheleHey Sean and Patrons! I've been re-listening to all the Empire Spoiler Podcasts with MCU directors and creators. In the Civil War episode, the Russo's said they explored many options for the turning point of the airport fight before deciding on Giant-Man. What do you think were their previous options for swinging the fight in Team Cap's favor?12:12 Nick DiTotaHey Sean, I've been a part of the Patreon for about 3 months now and I just want to say that I think it's awesome! I love being able to listen every day while I'm at work. Over the past couple years I've gotten big into reading comics. I've never read any comics about the Eternals and with Marvel making an Eternals movie I'd like to read some to get to know the characters a little more. Do you have any recommendations as to a particular series to read? I figured to get to know them best go right to the source with Kirby's original series but I wanted your opinion. Keep up the awesome work and thanks for everything you do!14:00 Jeremy WatsonAt the end of Iron Man, when Fury is telling Stark that he's become part of a bigger world, we now know that he was referring to Captain Marvel. At that time (2008), do you think that Kevin Feige was referring to her or just the Marvel Universe in general? Thanks15:41 Derek BeebeHey Sean, I know you've talked about them doing Hickman's Secret War as an Avengers movie, but what I really want to see is what leads up to that story, Time Runs Out.  Our heroes struggling in vain against an impossible, universe ending threat, driven to increasingly immoral desperation.  I think this would make a great trilogy of Avengers movies, but how dark do you think our heroes could get in a major blockbuster?  And if they did Secret War, how much time do you think they'll spend with Battleworld?  Personally I thought that was the least interesting aspect of the series by far.  And of course, this entire story requires Doom to be in the MCU.19:37 Derek BeebeDo you regret we didn't get a "Secret Avengers" movie between Civil War and Infinity War, showing what life was like for Cap's team living in exile in Wakanda?  I think that would have been a great story.  And if we did have that movie, do you think they should have avoided putting Tony and Steve together?22:10 Derek BeebeDo you think we need a Captain Marvel 2 taking place before Miss Marvel in order to properly establish Carol as a modern day hero for Kamala Kahn to look up to?23:50 Derek BeebeWhat do you think the line up for Avengers 5 will be?  I'm assuming that none of the original team will be around, though I hope that's not true.  Captain Marvel will be team leader of course.   I'm thinking Black Panther, Ant-Man, Wasp, Doctor Strange... maybe Shang Chi and Sersi?  And do you think a line up like that would be as popular as the original?29:00 Chris FHey Sean! Happy merger day! Was really great to break the news on the discord about the trailer release. I actually had a moment where I was like I wonder if this is what Sean feels like when he's breaking marvel news for us!Also thanks for sharing your idea of a “meditation period” before marvel films. I finally had a chance to try it with captain marvel and it worked great. So my question for the week is since time travel seems to be a factor in endgame is their any particular scene from any past films you would like to see them go back to and change a bit?I for one would love to see the scene of Thor and Loki on the rocks in Germany where Thor knows Loki is dead in the future and it's a bit more emotional. Thanks again for creating this great community!30:50 AlexHappy Closing day Sean! May I ask do you forsee the MCU X-Men and Fantastic Four films having the 20th Centuary Fox logo are does that become null and void once Marvel is making the movies and not Fox?32:10 AlexDo you think anything will in the world of Marvel superheroes world will be as historic as the X-Men and Fantastic Four coming back home back to Marvel Studios or is it as good as it gets? I have a hard time imagining even Marvel eventually gaining the full rights to Spider-Man will be as huge as this considering Marvel already has used Spidey in the MCU before now.33:54 AlexYou've lamented before on the quality of Entertainment journalism in regards to reporting things that are Marvel related but do you worry it can be greatly exacerbated after the deal closes? I see a future of a lot of unsubstantiated rumors about Mutants and Fantastic Four emerging more than ever before.35:03 Michael WeaselboyHey Sean its amazing to realize that now the MCU  can be fully complete. I was wondering do you think we will have Masters of Evil sometime in the MCU as the next Avengers villains?? Do you think Doctor Doom could be the leader?? What other members would you add??37:18 AlexDo you think Marvel gets the rights to Fantastic Four might soften your stance on Fan4stic once you re-watch the movie again at some point(assuming you ever do?)39:14 AlexSean, have you seen Bumblebee yet?  What do you think about it? And if you have seen it and liked it then  do you now agree that Travis Knight would be a  suitable choice to helm FF? I know you have Dee Rees as your top choice to direct Fantastic Four but I think Knight would a fantastic job( dumb  pun intended) with the First Family. 39:54 Brett HeierHey Sean, did you like the all female ghostbusters movie? I loved it and I am very sad there won't be a sequel. Also, did you like Captain Phasma as a character? Do you think we will see her again in the Star Wars Universe? Sorry these questions weren't very centered around the MCU.41:13 Brett HeierHow many more years do you think Scarlet Witch will be in the MCU?41:58 AlexSean, do you think  the Deadpool moves become retroactively canon in the MCU when Wade Wilson enters the MCU or do you think its unlikely? Would you rather  keep Deadpool in his own universe separate form the MCU or are you  of the mindset that he can be integrated into the MCU with little problems.44:54 AlexDo you have any   strong picks for Doctor   Doom?45:37 Jeremy WatsonSean, in the spirit of March Madness, who would your top 4 seeds be out of the major MCU players? Thanks!47:59 Jessica LoutfiHey Sean. Given that the Russo brothers are famous for adding things into their trailers that aren't in the movies...what do you think they added to the new trailer that may not be in Avengers Endgame? Thanks!49:30 Woo S! KimI happen to think Inhumans and Daredevil are the most underrated creations of Stan Lee's iconic career, do you concur, if you don't what do you think is his most underrated creation or creations, Sean?51:14 Woo S! KimIronically enough Sean, there is going to be a lot of What If Questions involving the “What If” Disney Plus animated series so please forgive the puns.  Now let's say for argument sake Disney wanted to do a “What If” episode or episodes that involve Tom Holland's Spider-Man can Marvel Studios/Disney do this or is Tom Holland's Spider-Man technically with Sony Pictures?  Related to Spider-Man do you feel that this “What If” Animated Series is Marvel Studios way of metaphorically dipping their toe into the pool of animation if they get the rights back to Spider-Man in the next two years or perhaps Marvel Studios wanting to release other Marvel characters in animated films released in cinemas that have nothing to so with Spider-Man, could this be the case why or why not?54:29 Woo S! KimIf you ever had the chance to interview Stan Lee did you have any questions you always wanted to ask him, me personally I would just spent the time thanking him for creating Daredevil.55:36 Matt MillerDo you think with the merger closing today thay Marvel studios will rearrange some of their plans and get the FF and X-men movies out before ones currently being planned/ones that are rumored?59:26 David RosenWith all the new properties coming over, and all the likely reboots that are going to happen, how do you foresee Marvel Studios adhering to their “no more origin stories” rule? While we will need some explanation, what do you think the amount of origin we'll get for the characters coming over from Fox? With the Fantastic Four and their fairly well-known origin specifically in mind, do you think it's possible to do something similar like they did with Spiderman, or will they need the classic origin story treatment to get them started? As the MCU continues to grow beyond End Game, and with all the new characters that will be introduced, what is the correct balance the MCU needs to strike in telling new characters' origins so that audiences don't start to get bored and look past the first films for all the upcoming characters?1:01:54 David RosenI know I thought this after the End Game super bowl spot, and I honestly cant remember if I, or some else asking about it then, but considering that the most recent trailer included flashbacks in black and white with the red highlights again, do you think there is more going on here than it just being a stylistic choice?1:03:27 David RosenOne of the reasons that I felt Captain Marvel was so different and refreshing from the rest of the MCU was the lack of an obvious love interest. Why is it that having a love interest has become such a staple of storytelling in the superhero genre? Was it a product of the times that these stories were being written in that the male hero had to have a woman to save and/or fall in love with? Do you think moving forward, Marvel should leave the obligatory, one-off love story behind in favor of other ways of developing characters or will it always be one of those story aspects that we'll just need to deal with sometimes because love is just a part of life?1:08:27 David RosenIn the discussion about whether Captain Marvel is too powerful in the MCU, regardless of whether or not we actually get to see this tested in a movie, if you consider that Wanda is able to use her energy to destroy the Mind Stone, do you think Captain Marvel could be defeated by a Hydra weapon, as they both draw their power from the Tesseract?1:10:38 Paul ShearmanHey Sean and everyone, hope you're all having a good week so far. Sean, pop quiz time! A quick question following your Captain Marvel conversations about the use of Nirvana when Carol went up against the Supreme intelligence (although I agree totally with you that it gets a pass because it's a terrific song!). Because I'm a weird completist about these things (!) I'm interested to know what alternative song you'd use, that fits with the ‘pre-1989 Carol leaving Earth' chronology and therefore not necessarily being aware of that song!In the grand scheme of things, this of course didn't ruin my enjoyment of the movie in any way, but I love to dot the i's and cross the t's..!Thanks as always, and enjoy the rest of your week.1:13:47 Jeremy WatsonSean, with the Fox/Disney acquisition complete, do you foresee any changes to some of Fox's tv content, such as The Simpsons, Family Guy, etc?1:17:11 Robert ReinekeHi Sean. There's some speculation that the latest Endgame trailer includes fake scenes and images that were deliberately altered from what will appear in the actual movie, ala Hulk in Wakanda. Now, I realize that no trailer is the actual movie, with trailers often featuring temp music, scenes and line readings that may end up on the editing floor, incomplete special effects, etc. Not to mention the fact that editing a 2 to 3 hour movie into a 2 minute spot is a deliberate act of distortion, all sizzle, all the time, albeit usually not on the level of trying to make The Shining look like a feel good family film or Christopher Robin look like a horror film. But, I feel that most trailers aren't trying to deliberately lie to me. Is a line being crossed here? I know Jean Luc Godard said that "Cinema is truth at 24 frames per second." and Brian DePalma retorted "Cinema is lies at 24 frames per second." and I'm much more in the DePalma camp, but I feel that I never like to be deliberately lied to. Yeah, I expect it won't ruin my enjoyment of the film any, but we have to hold the creators we like to the same  standards we hold those we don't like.  Did showing the Hulk in Wakanda ad one cent to the box office? I don't think so. Plus, I also feel that it's unnecessary in a film where you have 3 hours of footage and over 20 films to draw footage from, and a few seconds can't be that important. And I feel that this is a trend that ought to be nipped in the bud before it gets out of control, like digitally inserting Avengers into trailers for Eternals. Do you devalue the trailer by making them wholly unreliable?What do you think of the ethics of lying in trailers beyond "caveat emptor"?1:23:49 Angel L AshbyHey there Sean! Do you think that Disney/MCU set the timeline for the Disney/Fox deal so that it would be finalized before Endgame came out and do you believe that there will be a teaser for FF or Xmen in Endgame? Or do you think that Endgame will.. end.. in such a way that it sets up for X-men to be a new introduction in to the universe? (I hope that made sense.)

Director Dee Rees discusses her unintentionally autobiographical film “Mudbound”.

In episode 9 of movies imo., Ben, Brandon, and Daniel yell over each other about Dee Rees' MUDBOUND and then get into post-critics group Oscar predictions. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

***This is a Spoiler Free Episode*** Our Teaser Review of the Netflix Year of TV and Movies - 4:05 First They Killed My Father - 8:41 The Meyerowitz Stories - 27:39 Mudbound - 45:49 Lightning Round Reviews of 25+ Other 2017 Netflix Original Movies - 1:10:59 Our Top 5 Netflix Films of 2017 AKA Perfecting Perfection - 1:38:22 The podcast opens with an initial review of the Netflix year, taking both its films and TV shows into consideration. We begin with callbacks to our Freshman year Econ classes as we bark at one another about how wealth is achieved and why we have none, and as usual, we quote South Park episodes to prove our points. The show evolves into three primary reviews of the Netflix Oscar Contenders, Angelina Jolie's First They Killed My Father, Noah Baumbach's Adam Sandler and Ben Stiller dramedy The Meyerowitz Stories, and the critically beloved Mudbound, directed by Dee Rees and starring Mary J. Blige, Carey Mulligan, Garrett Hedlund, and Jason Mitchell. Also Mike rides his foreign film watching white horse and tramples Mike #1's pathetic attention span for subtitles during our review of First They Killed My Father. The production profile showcases something we once called Brangelina and their wunderkind of a son's new career as a producer. We also discuss the Oscar buzz surrounding its Best Foreign Film hopes. We vehemently disagree and trash each other over this review, and you don't want to miss it. It is a War for the Podcast of the Mikes!! YES!!! I worked that in. Is it catching on???!!! During our production profile of The Meyerowitz Stories, we cover it's colossal win of the Palm Dog (yes, I spelled that right) at the Cannes Film Festival. Look out, Oscar!! Also Mike makes a terrible joke about Mr. Magorium and his wonder emporium as we enter into our thoughts on where this movie should contend at the Oscars. Our review quibbles over whether this is a drama or comedy or dramedy, and we'll give you a hint. A Mike wins. We gush over the screenplay chops and reference our own family lives to embarrassing levels as we tease some of the plot. We focus on the great cast of Mudbound during our production profile of our third review, give you all the specs on where it's contending for Oscars, and discuss why Also Mike is a bad person. Then we somehow have a thoughtful discussion of the film and argue why it should be one of the more polarizing on the year. In a new segment we call our Lightning Round Reviews, we give a few words on over 25+ other Netflix Original movies from 2017. So we have your upcoming Netflix & Chill session thoroughly previewed and reviewed, and we bring it all home for you with a ranking of our Top 5 Netflix Original Movies of the Year thus far. As always, hit us up with your comments and feedback. This episode in particular calls out to you several times. We crave your attention, as if that's a surprise.

Pussy Riot's Maria Alyokhina made headlines five years ago when she and two other members of the protest group were arrested following a performance of their Punk Prayer in Moscow's Cathedral of Christ the Saviour.
