Na een veel te lange summerbreak zijn je favoriete filmvrienden weer terug. Er is veel gezien en dus te bespreken.Zo was Erwin erg onder de indruk van 'Superman' en bleef de hele zomer een specifieke boodschap maar in zijn hoofd. Jeffrey zag 'Weapons' en rende enthousiast de zaal uit. Hoe kan dat ook anders met zoveel verwijzingen naar 'The Shining'.Uiteraard was niet alles raak deze zomer; 'War of the Worlds' en 'Afterburn' kwamen er minder goed vanaf.Het thema van deze maand is 'Hollanders in Hollywood'. Want misschien weet je dat niet, maar voor een klein landje hebben wij een behoorlijke voetdruk achtergelaten in het beloofde filmland. En niet alleen door de bekende Nederlandse acteurs. Erwin vertelt ons er meer over en sluit af met zijn Podcornronde.De films die we keken voor het onderwerp waren 'Dunkirk' en 'Speed'. De Nederlanese cameraman Hoyte van Hoytema was verantwoordelijk voor spectaculaire scènes in 'Dunkirk'. Jeffrey bekeek hem op HBO Max maar had, los van de lof voor Hoytema, toch een paar kritische noten voor deze oorlogsfilm.Erwin keek 'Speed' op Disney+, een film gemaakt door de Nederlandse regisseur Jan de Bont. Hij zag de film als kleine jongen en was benieuwd of hij nog steeds zo zou genieten zoals hij vroeger deed. Deze typische jaren-90-actiefilm bleek nog steeds het bekijken waard.We kijken daarna vooruit naar September, een filmmaand die niet ontzettend veel brengt om naar uit te kijken. Toch wisten er nog 3 films uit te springen; 'The Conjuiring: Last Rites', 'Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale' en 'Him'.Oktober is dé maand waar Filmmakers hun Oscar kanshebbers zullen gaan tonen. Daarom is het volgende thema: Oscar winnaars voor de beste film. Jeffrey gaat kijken naar 'Lawrence of Arabia op Netflix (winnaar in 1962) en Erwin gaat kijken naar 'The Deer Hunter' op Videoland (winnaar is 1978).

Jurandir Filho, Thiago Siqueira e Rogério Montanare batem um papo sobre a carreira de Christopher Nolan e como ele conseguiu ser considerado (hoje) o maior cineasta da atualidade, um diretor que conseguiu unir como poucos o respeito da crítica, o reconhecimento da indústria e o sucesso absoluto de público. Ele fez filmes que não apenas renderam prêmios, como também se tornaram fenômenos culturais, discutidos por anos após o lançamento.Hoje, Christopher Nolan é visto não apenas como um grande diretor de blockbusters, mas como o cineasta que melhor conseguiu unir arte e espetáculo no século XXI, uma combinação que o transformou, para muitos, no maior cineasta em atividade.Comentamos sobre: "Following" (1998), "Amnésia" (2000), "Insomnia" (2002), "Batman Begins" (2005), "O Grande Truque" (2006), "Batman - O Cavaleiro das Trevas" (2008), "A Origem" (2010), "Batman - O Cavaleiro das Trevas Ressurge" (2012), " Interestelar" (2014), "Dunkirk" (2017), "Tenet" (2020) e "Oppenheimer" (2023).|| ASSINE O SALA VIP DO RAPADURACAST- Um podcast EXCLUSIVO do RapaduraCast toda semana! http://patreon.com/rapaduracast

Hello to you listening in London, England!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for courage) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.It's true what they say: "A story grows in the gaps where the facts fall short." 47 and his cabal are exploiting the gaps to create cruel and obscene stories because they have no facts.Headlines that repeat 47's cruel and obscene stories like reign of terror, being on the eve of destruction, days of the dictator, subservience to the sociopath, and so on reinforce these stories. The more these stories are told without the counterbalance of truth, facts, good news, and how We the People are fighting back, the more these lies will take hold in our exhausted minds because these stories keep on gushing like torrents of water out of a broken fire hydrant.Hear me when I say this: I am no idiot. Treacherous times are alive and afoot. 47 and his criminally complicit cabinet, feckless GOP congress, and subservient SCOTUS on speed dial are after nothing short of the utter desecration of our country. So, We the People must continue to push back, show up, stand up, speak up, fight and ever fight!In the darkest days of World War II when all looked lost in the face of Nazi Germany's advance across Europe and the Dunkirk evacuation, Winston Churchill summoned the will of the British people against those odds.    His famous "We shall fight on the beaches" speech was a galvanizing address delivered to the House of Commons on June 4, 1940.Listen to a portion of history: “The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength. Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.”Imagine the immense sacrifice and effort required of the British people to face the adversity and pummeling hardships of war. And yet, they did with courage and determination, with unwavering resolve to resist the Nazi threat, even to the last person, if necessary.If the British defeated the Nazis - against all odds - who are we not to follow in their footsteps and prevail against the enemy within our shores? We have no Churchill to summon us to battle; but we shall fight and we shall win because We the People are defying them and their obscenely hateful stories.Thank you for listening and making good trouble to liberate the land of the free and the home of the brave.  You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

In keeping with yesterday's topic of questionable President Trump decisions, we begin today with the latest new idea floated by the President, reopening Alcatraz as a federal prison. It seems like more than just mere hyperbole from Trump, as Attorney General Pam Bondi and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum toured the facility Thursday. Does this make any sense to you? As far as local news is concerned, discussions have been had about converting the old NRG plant in Dunkirk into a nuclear power plant. Would you support nuclear power in Western New York, and in the case of Dunkirk residents, in your backyard?

Ever heard of a war reporter? You could probably even name a few… perhaps you've even seen them played on the big screen by Hollywood movie stars. Now tell us - have you ever heard of a fixer? Could you name a single one? This episode, Media Storm dives into the complex ethics and murky dynamics of war reporting with former foreign correspondent Phoebe Greenwood and Palestinian journalist and former fixer, Abeer Ayyoub. When mostly white, middle class, overseas journalists get more pay, more recognition, and more protection than local collaborators, but often take on less risk and work, is that any better than racism? Is there a value to detached, outsider perspectives, or an inability to truly understand the lived realities of war? How sinister is western bias in the context of foreign conflict? And what does it say when the story is more important than the people left behind to live it? From the abandonment of Afghan interpreters, to the overlooked mass murder of Palestinian journalists; from kidnaps in Tigray, to smuggler violence in Dunkirk - we look at the dark side of a profession that is rightly held in high regard for its services to truth, but whitewashed, glamourised, and little understood. You can buy Phoebe Greenwood's new novel, Vulture, here. The episode is hosted and produced by Mathilda Mallinson (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@mathildamall⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) and Helena Wadia (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@helenawadia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠)  The music is by⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @soundofsamfire⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Support us on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

In this week's episode we travel to the small village of Le Paradis in Northern France to discover the awful story of a group of BEF soldiers who were murdered by the SS during the retreat to Dunkirk in May 1940. We listen to the words of the only 2 survivors and find out how another man escaped the shootings by going through a different door as the SS waited for them to surrender. We are joined by Peter McDonough, a relative of one of those who died that day at the hands of the Nazis. How did he feel when he visited the location of the massacre with me?

A whole lot of nothing, then lots all at once. That was the feeling from stage 3 of the Tour de France, where a processional day was punctuated by a nasty crash and the exit of Jasper Philipsen, then even more crashes in a hectic finale in Dunkirk. Caley, Jonny, and Ronan break down the stage, bring you news from Bryan Coquard and the Cofidis bus, and more.

Tell us what you though of the episode

Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, ApostlesThe Miracle of Dunkirk refers to the large-scale evacuation of Allied soldiers from Dunkirk, France, during World War II. Trapped by German forces, over 338,000 British and Allied troops were rescued by a combined effort of the Royal Navy and civilian boats between May 26 and June 4, 1940. Sts. Peter and St. Paul went on a spiritual rescue mission across the Roman world by evangelizing with boldness. They suffered and died as witnesses to Christ's truth, strengthening the Church through their letters, doctrine, and leadership. Sts. Peter and Paul continue to intercede for the Church as saints in heaven. May the Church continue to accept the invitation from Christ by going behind enemy lines to save those in need.Scripture Readings for June 29, 2025Acts 12:1-11Psalm 34:2-92 Timothy 4:6-8, 17-18Matthew 16:13-19

At the start of World War II, France was still a world power. The U.S. and many other nations were relying on the French, along with their ally Britian, to stop Hitler. But in just 6 weeks in May and June 1940, the Germans conquered France, Belgium, and The Netherlands; and drove the British off of continental Europe. The incredibly swift German victory completely changed the balance of power in the world; and woke up the isolationist United States.

Hello to you listening all over America on this Memorial Day our nation's foremost day of remembrance.Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories from Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.On this solemn day of reflection we honor and mourn the men and women who sacrificed their lives for their country in peacetime and war. Today we are at war. Our Democracy, our constitution, our rule of law, and even our people are under assault. Is there reason to fight, to hope? You bet there is!The first weeks of Churchill's Prime Ministership were clouded by the fall of France and the surrender of the Belgian Army, with repercussions for the Western alliance. To delay the German advance towards Britain, Churchill ordered expeditionary forces to retreat towards the port of Dunkirk to allow an Allied evacuation that lasted for nine days. Churchill's descriptions of events were more akin to a war reporter than a political statesman as he explained in great detail to his fellow members the bravery and ingenuity of the British forces in the face of the German war machine. Despite the success of the operation there was still a loss of over 30,000 men and vast amounts of artillery.Yet in the face of such adversity and sacrifice Churchill used his voice and his unshakeable determination to make a rallying cry to not just his fellow countrymen but also the beleaguered French in this historic speech delivered to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom on June 4, 1940: “We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender!”Click HERE to listen to Churchill's voice and take in the unforgettable images that fortified his words.Click HERE to access the Transcript of Churchill's speechClick HERE to access: The Miracle of Dunkirk Click HERE to access the 85th anniversary of the evacuation of Dunkirk with 64 of the original Little Ships heading back to the Dunkirk beaches.CTA: As you go about your day keep in mind that we Americans are not lost as long as we organize and fight together.
