Podcasts about Driving Miss Daisy

As drivers tighten their belts with the hike in fuel prices worldwide, Driving Miss Daisy says it will absorb rising fuel costs, for now. General Manager Andrew Kirkpatrick spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.

Hoera, aflevering 60! In deze jubileumaflevering ga ik langs bij regisseur Lieven Debrauwer, waarvan zijn debuut "Pauline & Paulette" ooit werd besproken bij de start van deze podcast (AFL2, met Lukas Lelie). Lieven heeft recent deze aflevering gehoord, en wou paar zaken toelichten; en gelukkig wou hij ook 3 films kiezen uit mijn kast:

Chariots of Fire marks when Oscar season bleeds into our new month all about racing movies! This movie won Best Picture in 1982, but Mike's dad said the movie was just about a bunch of guys racing. Is this movie based on a true story about how two guys brought glory to England through running in the Olympic games actually good? Or is this another Crash, Green Book, or Driving Miss Daisy.Don't forget to join our Discord for movie nights and additional podcast discussions!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-other-half/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

¿Alguna vez has sentido que la Academia vive en una realidad paralela?

It's Awards Season yet again. Here on the Holmes Movies Podcast that means, it is time for the Alternative Oscars episodes! AKA the Anders and Adam-emy Awards: Each episode for this series we pick a different year in Oscars history and attempt to correct the record, stripping the undeserving of their garlands while recognising those who were cruelly overlooked.This time, we will be casting our eye back to… the 5th Academy Awards. The event celebrated all the films released between the 1st of August 1931 and the 31st of July 1932. To make things easier for the Holmes Brothers, they decided to only talk about give awards and nominations to the films released only in 1932. The event was held at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles, California on November 18th 1932. The host was Conrad Nagel. This was the first of three Oscars events in where two films not nominated for Best Picture received more nominations than the actual winner. It was also the year where there was a tie-winner for Best Actor. This was also the last Oscars ceremony where no film won more than two Oscars. It also introduced the Best Short Subject, Cartoon Oscar. The film Flowers and Trees won. It was the first colour film to win an award. Grand Hotel directed by Edmund Goulding won Best Picture. It became the only Best Picture winner to be nominated for that award and nothing else. It was the second of six films to date to win Best Picture without a Best Director nomination. Films like Wings, Driving Miss Daisy, Argo, Green Book and CODA were the other films to win Best Picture without a Best Director nomination. Be sure to check out our Monument Valley Film on our YouTube Channel.Anders's screenwriter work can also be seen at work in the horror, car chase thriller Delivery Run, co-written with & directed by Joey Palmroos. The film has been released digitally and also in select cinemas in the US and the UK. In Finland it was released on Apple TV after finishing its limited cinema run and was the Number 1 film for multiple weeks. You can read a review about it here on the Fangoria website. The film is now available to watch in the other Nordic territories like Sweden, Oslo and of course Denmark.

Green Book (2018) at first glance seems like a twist ... a retelling of another Best Picture winner ... Driving Miss Daisy.  It's not. This movie is mostly about the connection between two men from different worlds who learn to understand each other during a road trip.  It's a very entertaining film ... but looking back, did the Academy get it right and award the right film the top award at the Oscars Listen to film critic Jack Ferdman's take on it as he analyzes everything about Green Book as well as many other films from that year, and hear which film he gives his Rewatch Oscar of 2018?Download, listen, and share ALL Rewatching  Oscar episodes.SUBSCRIBE and FOLLOW Rewatching Oscar:Website: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comApple Podcasts/iTunesSpotifyGoogle PodcastsiHeart RadioPodchaserPodcast AddictTuneInAlexaAmazon Overcasts Podcast Addict Player FMRSS Feed: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1815964.rssWebsite: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comSocial Media Links: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, BlueSkyShare your thoughts and suggestions with us through:Facebook Messenger or email us atjack@rewatchingoscar.com or jackferdman@gmail.comMusic by TurpacShow Producer: Jack FerdmanPodcast Logo Design: Jack FerdmanMovie (audio) trailer courtesy of MovieClips Classic TrailersMovie (audio) clips courtesy of YouTubeSupport us by downloading, sharing, and giving us a 5-star Rating.  It helps our podcast continue to reach many people and make it available to share more episodes with everyone.Send us a text

In the heart of Beverly Hills, just after a red-carpet movie premiere, the life of Ronni Chasen, one of Hollywood's most connected and beloved publicists, came to a violent and mysterious end. On November 16, 2010, the 64-year-old was gunned down in her Mercedes-Benz while stopped at a red light. The shocking murder of the woman who helped secure Oscar Gold for films like Driving Miss Daisy and The Hurt Locker instantly made national headlines. Ronni's influential friends  quickly offered a combined $125,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. This massive reward signaled that her inner circle wasn't convinced the killing was a random act. A tip to America's Most Wanted led police to Harold Martin Smith, a man with a lengthy criminal record living in a rundown apartment complex. When confronted by detectives, Smith ended his own life with a .38 caliber revolver. The Beverly Hills Police Department officially closed the case in 2011, declaring Smith the sole killer and the motive of a random robbery gone wrong. However, this "solved" status remains highly controversial due to several glaring contradictions: Ronni's purse was untouched and nothing was taken, contradicting the robbery motive. Police claimed Smith was on a bicycle, but her autopsy report suggests an unknown vehicle pulled up beside her car. The ballistic evidence was inconclusive; documents revealed the findings were "insufficient for an identification" to definitively match the bullet to Smith's gun. Law enforcement was criticized for failing to interview multiple residents and for poor evidence collection.   Thank you to this week's sponsors!

Coy Jandreau & John Humphrey take on their first-time watch Reaction & Review of Frank Darabont's The Shawshank Redemption (1994), the acclaimed adaptation of Stephen King's novella Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption. This beloved drama follows Andy Dufresne, played by Tim Robbins (Mystic River, Jacob's Ladder), a banker wrongly convicted of murder who must endure the brutal realities of prison life. Along the way, Andy befriends Ellis “Red” Redding, brought to life by Morgan Freeman (Se7en, Driving Miss Daisy), whose legendary narration frames the story of resilience and hope. The supporting cast includes Bob Gunton (Demolition Man, Argo) as the corrupt Warden Norton, Clancy Brown (Highlander, Starship Troopers) as the ruthless Captain Hadley, William Sadler (Die Hard 2, The Mist) as Heywood, and James Whitmore (Planet of the Apes, Give 'em Hell, Harry!) as Brooks, whose tragic arc with “Brooks was here” remains one of the film's most unforgettable sequences.

In this conversation, Freeman opens up to Al Roker about his journey from stage to screen, his admiration for Nelson Mandela and the lessons he's carried through his career.

The Oscars have come and gone, but TV Movie Night is celebrating the toast of Tinsel Town in the month of March as we discuss made-for-TV movies featuring Best Actor or Best Actress winners! First up, from 1991, it's "Driving Miss Daisy's" Jessica Tandy in "The Story Lady." Tandy stars as Grace, a retiree who becomes an overnight sensation for her incredible talent: reading public domain children's stories with minimal issue! This movie combines Mark and Andrew's love of public access television with the backroom dealings of corporate America. It's "UHF" with an Academy Award winner! Listen in, how about?

Trey and Blaine discuss Morgan Freeman and Jessica Tandy in a movie that is just barely a period piece.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/99-years-100-films. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jessica Tandy won the Best Actress Oscar for her role as an elderly Jewish widow in 1989's Driving Miss Daisy. Tandy and Morgan Freeman gave us a complicated decades-long friendship; a friendship challenged by bigotry, illiteracy, and Patti LuPone. The film would go on to win Best Picture of the year. But now, decades later, did this sorta-simple story deserve all its accolades? Is the character of Hoke, by its sheer existence, offensive? And what does it say about a late-80's America when this flick is showered with awards and Spike Lee's racially charged Do the Right Thing is ignored? The Old Roommates hit the Piggly Wiggly and revisit it all through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.Old Roommates can be reached via email at oldroommatespod@gmail.com.

Filmmaker, critic, video essayist and author Scout Tafoya joins the show to discuss the work of undersung journeyman Bruce Beresford and his brilliant 1991 film 'Black Robe', a story of faith, the frontier, and the church as a pernicious vestige of the European colonial project. Set amidst the 17th Century French conquests of North America in modern-day Quebec, the film follows the titular Black Robe, Father Laforgue, a Jesuit Missionary tasked with bringing Christianity to the indigenous populations of the region. As he ventures deep into Huron territory with his company of Algonquin guides, the limits of his faith and reason are tested, as it becomes clear that his beliefs and the promises they supposedly carry can find no purchase with a people who have no need for them. Greenlit in the wake of the success of 'Dances With Wolves' and cashing in on an exceptional amount of goodwill Beresford had accrued after directing the Academy Award-winning 'Driving Miss Daisy', the film is a brilliant study of self-deception, and the profoundly human impulses of one's perceptions of the divine. We discuss Beresford as filmmaker, his history as a contemporary of Australian greats Peter Weir and George Miller, and why his work deserves an immediate and vast reappraisal. Then, we discuss 'Black Robe', its exacting observations of faith and imperialism, and its unusually sensitive and well-researched portrayals of indigenous American tribes. Finally, we talk about other films in the canon of great portrayals of faith and the frontier, including Michael Mann's gorgeous 'The Last of the Mohicans' and Martin Scorsese's late-period masterpiece 'Silence'.

While Something To Talk About takes a break, we are revisiting some of the most candid and revealing moments from the almost 50 guests who have joined us in conversation on this podcast over the past year.  If ever anyone needed proof that women are increasingly refusing to disappear from public life once they reach an age that would once have seen them supposedly past their “expiry date”, then they would find it in this sixth episode of the Something To Talk About summer series, And it's not just career success that so many Australian women are finding in their late forties, fifties, sixties and seventies - they are also discovering that with age comes, yes, wisdom, but also happiness, self-confidence and a sense of calm. Today's episode features four such women at the top of their game both professionally and personally, including Nicole Kidman, who says that at 56, she is revelling in making what she calls “teenage choices” when it comes to everything from the roles she chooses to the clothes that she wears.  Rebecca Gibney - who turns 60 at the end of this year but often still thinks she's 35 years old, declares that she is still acting by the age of 90, she plans to be less Driving Miss Daisy and more Betty White. Ahead of turning 50 later this year, Asher Keddie reflects on the hard won joys of working and living in a time when women's voices, and stories, are being listened to and celebrated more than ever -  while Liz Hayes, another fixture of Australian TV, reveals how she stared down sexism throughout her career to remain on screen much longer than she would have ever thought possible when starting out as a young reporter.  Hear the full conversation with each of the four guests featured in this episode here: Listen to Nicole Kidman here.  Listen to Liz Hayes here.  Listen to Asher Keddie here.  Listen to Rebecca Gibney here.

She has starred in not just one, but several of Australia's most iconic and beloved TV shows of all time – with a cabinet full of Logie Awards to prove it. So what is the secret to Rebecca Gibney's success? According to the woman herself, the answer is kindness. She recalls being told as a young actor by a co-star that the best advice he could give her to build a long term career was to treat everyone with respect. “Sometimes I'm not the best actor for the job,” Rebecca insists in this interview with Something To Talk About, “but I know people will employ me because they'll go: she's going to show up on time, she's going to know her lines and she's going to be kind.”It's an attitude that has not only helped the Packed to the Rafters star become one of the most popular and acclaimed actors in the country, but has served her well offscreen, too. As she explains in this episode, kindness and a lack of ego has played a key role in her marriage, helped her navigate the trauma of a childhood shaped by domestic violence, kept her grounded in her faith and taught her the value of being a little kinder to herself.As someone who has been open about mental health struggles and family violence long before such issues became part of the national conversation, her honesty has had a profound impact on many – a candour she now extends to sharing make-up free selfies on social media to help make other women feel better about themselves. And as she looks ahead to celebrating her 60th birthday next year, she gets frank about what she calls the “privilege” of growing older. So what does she think of the famous joke that there are only three ages for women to play onscreen: babe, district attorney and Driving Miss Daisy? You can see Rebecca in the Stan Original Series, Prosper premiering January 2024 on Stan.  Find more from Stellar via Instagram @stellarmag or pick up a copy inside The Sunday Telegraph (NSW), Sunday Herald Sun (VIC), The Sunday Mail (QLD) and Sunday Mail (SA).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
