When your last name is Spielberg, there's naturally a certain legacy, but our guest today is Destry Allyn Spielberg, a talented director and actor who's confidently stepping into her own light, proving her unique voice and vision away from her famous father Steven Spielberg. You might know Destry from her acting roles, including her memorable performance in Paul Thomas Anderson's critically acclaimed "Licorice Pizza," as well as her work in the HBO limited series "I Know This Much Is True." She's also appeared in independent films like "Mass Hysteria." But it's in the director's chair where she's really been making waves. Destry's demonstrated a keen eye for storytelling with her striking short films "Rosie" (which she also acted in) and "Let Me Go the Right Way," which premiered at Tribeca and earned praise for its compelling narrative and performances. And now, she's made her highly anticipated feature directorial debut with the chilling psychological thriller, "Please Don't Feed the Children." This film, written by Paul Bertino, plunges us into a post-apocalyptic world where a deadly virus has targeted adults, leaving a group of orphans searching for safety. The cinematography, handled by Shane Sigler, the cast include Michelle Dockery from "Downton Abbey" in a uniquely villainous role, alongside the brilliant Giancarlo Esposito from "Breaking Bad," and a talented young ensemble including Zoe Colletti, Andrew Liner, Dean Scott Vazquez, Regan Aliyah, Emma Meisel, Joshuah Melnick, and Vernon Davis. Destry Allyn Spielberg is an exciting new voice, building a remarkable body of work that stands on its own merits, while undeniably carrying that incredible filmmaking DNA.

We chat about the intricacies of British humor, the pressures of performing in front of a studio audience, and the technical aspects of comedy. Miranda also shares personal stories about her health struggles, finding strength in vulnerability, and her unique approach to writing, which includes 'treasures of darkness' she discovered through her own experiences.

In this episode of the show we are closing the books on Robert Altman June with his 2001 period-set whodunnit Gosford Park. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us debate whether this movie is a murder mystery, if it wants to be one and if the intent is for it to subvert the genre. Or maybe if it is supposed to be a platform for Altman to exercise his signature moves. We also talk about the ways in which the movie delineates class divides, how it gives a few of its characters some room to be playful and whether its own anti-climax is a commentary. Plus, we share a few comments on the most potent legacy left behind by this movie, which is the fact that it led to the creation of Downton Abbey.

On this week's episode of Grumpy Old Geeks, we kick things off with the glorious meltdown of two of our least favorite Bond villains: Elon Musk and Donald Trump. Not only is their public pissing match tanking Tesla's market cap, but now Trump's launching a crypto wallet to… fund freedom? Or at least funnel it straight to his latest shell game. Meanwhile, someone at DOGE admitted the U.S. government wasn't entirely incompetent, so naturally, they got fired. Efficiency is un-American, after all.In the news, Ukraine leveled up with an unprecedented drone blitz on Russian airbases using—you guessed it—open source software. GitHub just became a geopolitical weapon. Back home, Nebraska wants to unplug your kids, Florida's trying (and failing) to legislate dopamine, and Tesla's panicking that their crash data might expose how their “Full Self-Driving” is really just short bus autopilot. And because the AI dystopia train never stops: OpenAI's bot is recommending meth to recovering addicts, Meta's replacing humans with risk-assessing algorithms, and one “AI startup” turned out to be 700 dudes in Bangalore with a decent VPN. Cue the dramatic zoom on Diabolus Ex Machina.Media Candy this week is a buffet: Downton Abbey finally closes up shop, Stranger Things 5 sets a date, and Foundation still sucks. Marc Maron's locking the gates for good, Garbage drops a surprisingly optimistic album, and Hollywood's quietly been using AI like it's a studio intern who doesn't need sleep. Over in The Library, Jason's back with Hitchhiker's Guide and Brian dives in to Michael Palin's Python diaries—because reading actual books is still a thing, damn it. Plus: Dave Bittner wants to “go antiquing” with Amy Sedaris with a Ben Franklin playbook. Closing shout-outs go to the legendary Loretta Swit—Hot Lips forever—and yes, we finally answer the question nobody asked: what is under a Jawa's hood?Sponsors:Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Koning Frederik vierde zijn 57ste verjaardag en daar kwam veel volk naar kijken. Ook een huisdier. Charles en Camilla trokken naar Canada en Meghan Markle kalligrafeerde een servet vol voor een fan op het vliegtuig. De bedenker van de serie ‘Downton Abbey' is dan weer boos op prins William. Veel royale diploma's de voorbije week ook, maar dé verrassing van de week was onze kroonprinses Elisabeth die een vroege zomervakantie inzette in het frisse België. En... We kregen post van koning Filip!

This is an Encore Presentation of my July 2023 interview with Jeremy Swift, who shot to worldwide fame as Leslie Higgins - the Communications Director for the AFC Richmond football club - in the hit series “Ted Lasso”.

In this episode, I dig into a question that's always lurking in the back of a portrait photographer's mind – what really makes light flattering? It's a term we all use, but what does it actually mean? Is it just about soft shadows and low contrast, or is it more about the connection between the subject and the photographer? I talk through this while reflecting on a busy week – from a stunning wedding at Head Saw House to a corporate shoot for Barclays, and a spontaneous portrait session that reminded me why I love this job. I also share some thoughts on the updated Mastering Portrait Photography book, which hits shelves in September, complete with fresh images and a whole new chapter on AI post-production. If you've ever wondered what makes a light truly flattering – and why it's about more than just the gear – this episode is for you. And as always, wherever you are and whatever you're doing, be kind to yourself. Cheers P.

Transcript Well, as I sit here in the studio, the sun is shining in through the windows and it's been a beautiful, beautiful week. I started it with a trip down to Devon with the in-laws. One great thing about being married to Sarah, whose family are from Plymouth, there are many great things about being married to Sarah. But one of the ones, in terms of geography, at least, is her family still lived down in Plymouth, in Devon, by the sea. So it was absolutely glorious to spend a couple of days down there walking the dog, drinking a beer, enjoying the sunshine, and the sun is still shining here right now. And on that happy note, I'm Paul. I'm very much looking forward to a barbecue, and this is the Mastering Portrait

Our conversation covers Churchill's diverse roles and personal attributes, from his military valour to his romanticism, and even his encounters with notable figures like Einstein and Queen Elizabeth II. Sinclair shares how Churchill's fearless and multifaceted nature made him an extraordinary figure, one who continually adapted to monumental changes in society.

The ancient Highclere Church watches over a sleepy village nestled in the rolling hills of Hampshire, England. Here, there exists a tale so bizarre that it seems ripped from a fevered dream. The location is famed for its Downton Abbey glamour but a legend persists which is whispered by locals over pints in dimly lit pubs. It's the story of a creature that defies reason: a porpoise-like beast that made its home not in the briny deep of the oceans, but in the gnarled branches of a yew tree.

Long Story Short - Der Buch-Podcast mit Karla Paul und Günter Keil
Falls ihr in den Osterferien noch Lesestoff sucht, haben Karla und Günter heute eine wunderbare Mischung aus Liebesroman, Sachbuch, Familienchronik und Krimi mitgebracht. Hier ist garantiert für jede*n die passende Lektüre dabei! Ein norwegischer Küstenort in den 1940er Jahren: Eine Frau vertraut einem Fremden ihre Lebensgeschichte an. Schonungslos berichtet sie von ihrer besessenen Liebe als 18-Jährige zu ihrem Lehrer. “Nichts wächst im Mondschein“ von Torborg Nedreaas ist eine aufwühlende literarische Wiederentdeckung aus Norwegen. Oft ist ein herzhaftes “Ich weiß es doch auch nicht“ wohltuender als ein besserwisserischer Ratschlag. Das findet auch Mareice Kaiser und leistet uns in ihrem gleichnamigen Anti-Sachbuch auf witzige Weise Beistand im Nicht-Wissen. Mit liebevollen Illustrationen von Slinga. Wer die politische Situation im Osten besser verstehen möchte, dem sei der Roman “Die Möglichkeit von Glück“ von Anne Rabe ans Herz gelegt. Er geht den Verletzungen einer Familie zwischen Diktatur und Demokratie nach und forscht nach den Ursprüngen von Rassismus und Gewalt.Ein Toter, hingestreckt auf einer Chaiselongue: Dies ist der Ausgangspunkt, von dem Butler Christian den Aufstieg und Fall der Familie Hobbs schildert. Verena Roßbacher ist mit “Ich war Diener im Hause Hobbs“ eine unterhaltsame Mischung aus Patricia Highsmith und Downton Abbey gelungen. Die Titel dieser Folge: “Nichts wächst im Mondschein“ von Torborg Nedreaas (Luchterhand), “Ich weiß es doch auch nicht” von Mareice Kaiser (Penguin), “Die Möglichkeit von Glück” von Anne Rabe (btb), “Ich war Diener im Hause Hobbs” von Verena Roßbacher (btb). +++ Viel Spaß mit dieser Folge.

I had been really looking forward to talking to Julian Ovenden but the conversation I ended up having with him was extraordinary and unexpected. Not only is he a talented actor appearing in some of our best loved TV shows and theatre productions: Downton Abbey, Bridgerton, Foyle's War, My Night with Reg, All About Eve to name but a handful, he is also a hugely talented singer whose concerts, albums and worldwide performances have touched the hearts of many. He is a winning combination of self-deprecating, funny, and honest and he generously shared some of the best and worst periods of his life. At times hilarious, at others heartbreaking and at all times fascinating, this is an important, entertaining and ultimately uplifting conversation. I feel honoured have been part of it and to be able to share it with you. Related Links Follow Julian Ovenden Julian Ovenden - YouTube

In this episode, I sit down with the immensely talented artist and illustrator, Lucy Clare Dunbar, at Highclere Castle. Lucy shares her journey into becoming an illustrator, influenced by her father's artistry, and her love for drawing from a young age. She discusses the challenges she faced, particularly losing her sight due to health issues, and how drawing became a form of therapy for her. Her sight eventually returned, giving her a profound appreciation for life. We delve into her book 'The Book of Gifts,' which combines her heartfelt sketches and words that reflect her personal experiences and hopes to uplift others. Lucy also talks about her creative family, her process of combining words with sketches, and how she draws inspiration from everyday moments and her beloved pets.

Send us a textThis week on 2 Fat Guys Talking Flowers, we bring you a quickish episode. With a full bouquet of updates from the past week of Jet Fresh Industry events. We start with the NYBG Orchid Gala Dinner in New York, where Mimi was the ultimate plus-one (Carlos's honorary date, to be exact). Next, we catch up with Olga, who gave us a quick but sweet rundown of her week volunteering at the Philly Flower Show with the Bill Schaffer Team.

Grab a seat at the table, folks – Let's just say, we've got more chatter than a cooking show!

Hey Friends! This week we're talking about You're the Problem It's You! by Emma R. Alban. We're talking about 19th century gentleman's clubs, confusing family trees and our favorite Downton Abbey villain and much much more! Theme by Man with Roses Book Description below: Bobby Mason is sick of being second: born the spare, never trusted with family responsibility, never expected to amount to much. He's hungry to contribute something that matters, while all around him his peers are squandering their political and financial power, coasting through life. Which is exactly why he can't stand the new Viscount Demeroven. James Demeroven, just come of age and into the Viscountcy, knows that he's a disappointment. Keeping his head down and never raising anyone's expectations is how he's survived life with his stepfather. To quiet, careful James, Bobby Mason is a blazing comet in his endless night, even more alive than he was at Oxford when James crushed on him from afar. But Mason is also brash and recklessly unapologetic, destined to shatter the fragile safety of James's world. Worst of all, he keeps rubbing James's failures in his face. They can barely get through a single conversation without tensions boiling over. Neither Bobby nor James has ever met a more intriguing, infuriating, infatuating man. If only they could avoid each other entirely. Bad enough their (wonderful but determined) cousins Beth and Gwen keep conveniently setting up group outings. But when an extortionist starts targeting their families, threatening their reputations, Bobby and James must find a way to work together, without pushing each other's buttons (or tearing them off) in the process…
