Happy Holidays from The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we discuss the great Jack Lemmon with the great Mitchell Beaupre! Our B-Sides today include Cowboy, The April Fools, Tribute, and Out to Sea. There's also a lengthy appreciation of Save the Tiger, which won Lemmon his second Oscar. The three of us try to define how exactly Lemmon so perfectly encapsulated the average, American male for so many decades, while digging into his long career, that includes both filmmaker Billy Wilder and Walter Matthau. We discuss how Cowboy was ahead of its time, how The April Fools skates by on immense, charming chemistry, and how Tribute falters due to a stunted co-lead (sorry Robby Benson!). There's a lot in this episode. A true holiday gift! We appreciate the great film critic Janet Maslin. We recount that time when Ving Rhames won a Golden Globe and called Lemmon on stage to gift him the award out of respect. There's a brief reflection on the strange career of Tribute director Bob Clark, a discovery that our greatest living cinematographer lensed 80 for Brady, and an appropriate acknowledgement that Dyan Cannon, co-star of Out to Sea, makes every film better.

1982's … DEATHTRAP.. Michael Caine, Christopher Reeve and Dyan Cannon directed by Sidney Lumet.
Actress, filmmaker and editor Dyan Cannon joins Frank Mackay on this episode of The Frank Mackay Show!
In this inspiring episode, I sit down with globally-renowned life coach, speaker, and author, Tim Storey, who has worked with business leaders and A-list celebrities like Robert Downey, Jr., Charlie Sheen, and Dyan Cannon. Tim shares powerful insights from his book The Miracle Mentality: Tap into the Source of Magical Transformation in Your Life, and offers practical guidance on how we can rediscover our childlike innocence and reignite our belief in miracles.Miracles and magical thinking are innate in all of us, but life's challenges, “life's interruptions,” as Tim calls them, such as loss or trauma, can break the innocence that fuels our dreams. “As we get older and we start to have life interruptions, we start to realize that life is not so innocent. Some people do not know how to process that and step back into the miracle mentality.”Tim believes that by reconnecting with our childhood imagination, we can tap into the miracle mentality, which allows us to see life's possibilities in a new, transformative light and get our magic back.

Check out the new series, Archie on Britbox!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
The world knew him as the movie star Cary Grant, but underneath his screen persona was the real man, Archibald Alexander Leach, aka Archie. In the series Archie, currently streaming on Britbox,Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, The Death of Stalin, Mass, The Patriot) takes on the iconic matinee idol from the inside out, exposing all of his insecurities and false bravado that lied behind his trademark square-rimmed glasses and outward suave and sophisticated appearance. Jason joins host Robin Milling to talk about portraying Archie Leach and all his foibles, his conversations with his fourth wife Dyan Cannon, along with getting his famous accent down, and the makeup process of applying his dark tan and dimpled chin, which he describes all as “an indication” of him.
Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter, Sex Education) joins Son of a Binge to chat all about his stint playing Archie Leach, known to most as Cary Grant, on Britbox's Archie. Based on the book, "Archie", by Grant's ex-wife Dyan Cannon, and BAFTA-winner Jeff Pope, Archie tells the story of a young boy who turned himself into one of Hollywood's biggest stars. Isaacs breaks down the man behind the myth, from the death of Archie's mother, to his relationship with his father, his wives and the light of his life, his daughter. He also reveals why he wrote a line in the film to address Cary Grant's romantic relationships. Isaacs chats about whether he would be open to continuing the Harry Potter story as Lucius Malfoy, with a limited-series based around the Malfoys. Plus, he tells us about the shows he's binged recently including The Great with Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult, and Sex Education with Gillian Anderson. Archie is executive produced by Jennifer Grant, Cary Grant's daughter, and Dyan Cannon and is airing now on Britbox.

Yesterday we re-ran a conversation between Noel Thingvall and Michael about the 1945 classic, Christmas in Connecticut. We mentioned a couple of times in that conversation that there's a remake of that movie, so of course Michael and Noel also had to talk about that one. The remake was a TV movie from 1992 starring Dyan Cannon, Kris Kristofferson, and Tony Curtis. And most remarkably, directed by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The minute she walked in the joint we became Dyan Fannons. But is this episode all fun, laughs, good times, or has it gone to the dogs? Or the Congo? Is Foo-Foo secretly a Fosse dancer? Why would a Muppet set have a floor and a ceiling? If a cavegirl outfit isn't designed by Bob Mackie, is it more problematic than Ally McBeal? And what's the deal with Pogo?? We'll answer these questions and more on this episode of Muppeturgy! https://muppeturgy.com/episodes/dyan-cannonThis episode was released during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.

The Not Ready for Prime Time Podcast: The Early Years of SNL
It feels like everyone's mind was elsewhere (the upcoming Emmys, perhaps?) for episode 20 of Saturday Night's first season. Misses abound as much of this week's show feels like it was either rejected from earlier episodes or just simply written in time to catch the plane to L.A. Despite the lack of quality material, Dyan Cannon has a blast fulfilling her host duties; literally laughing through the whole episode.Leon and Mary Russell also are on the show to belt out some great tunes (despite being interrupted by...Joe Cocker?) and we also get Alan Zweibel carrying John Belushi around on his back and a topless Chevy Chase on horseback.So, the episode is not a total wash.Subscribe today! And follow us on social media on X (Twitter), Instagram, and Facebook.
The second part of my Dyan Cannon discussion includes the film she wrote, directed, and starred in called The End of Innocence. Rebecca Schaeffer plays the younger version of Dyan's character in this film. It was her last role before her murder at the hands of a crazed fan on the doorstep of her West Hollywood home. Her death is the reason we have stalking laws in this country. I discuss her murder, along with 3 other notable names in the 1980s, Dominique Dunn, Theresa Saldana, and playmate Dorothy Stratten. The "reason" for Rebecca's murder was a role she played in the 1989 comedy Scenes from the Class Struggles in Beverly Hills. That film and her role in it is discussed at length along with the details of the laws that went into place after her death. Resources include The End of Innocence and Scenes from the Class Struggle in Beverly Hills, Dyan's memoir, a 2020 episode about Rebecca's murder, Theresa Saldana's film Victims for Victims, Star 80, and countelss other interviews memoirs and magazine articles consumed over the course of my life.
This is the first episode of two Dyan Cannon episodes ranging from the 1960s-1990's. Dyan is a Hollywood mainstay that ushered in a different kind of "it" girl- the comedian with an appetite for sex and a sense of humor about men. She had a wild life and the roles she played are fully embodied examples of her experience and knowledge. Her laugh alone does a lot for humanity but her brutal honesty is a holy quality that we could use more of as a society. All of these episodes are deeply personal for me but talking about Dyan gave me a lot of insight into what I value in women and in society generally. I hope it does the same for you. My sources this week were her memoir My Life With Carey and her body of work. Including a slew of interviews she has done over many many decades. I also spend a significant amount of time on her instagram page, even when I am not writing about her. I highly recommend you check that out @therealdyancannon.
Our miniseries on the 1980s movies of director Martha Coolidge ends with a look back at her 1988 film Plain Clothes. ----more---- TRANSCRIPT From Los Angeles, California, the Entertainment Capital of the World, it's The 80s Movies Podcast. I am your host, Edward Havens. Thank you for listening today. On this episode, we're going to complete our miniseries on the 1980s films of director Martha Coolidge with her little seen 1988 movie Plain Clothes. When we last left Ms. Coolidge, she had just seen her 1985 film Real Genius get lost in the mix between a number of similarly themed movies, although it would eventually find its audience through home video and repeated cable airings throughout the rest of the decade. Shortly after the release of Real Genius, she would pick out her next project, a comedy mystery called Glory Days. Written by Dan Vining, Glory Days was one of a number of television and movie scripts floating around Hollywood that featured a supposedly young looking cop who goes undercover as a student at a high school. Whatever Coolidge saw in it, she would quickly get to work making it her own, hiring a young writer working at Paramount Studios named A. Scott Frank to help her rewrite the script. Coolidge had been impressed by one of his screenplays, a Neo-noir romantic mystery thriller called Dead Again, and felt Frank was the right person to help her add some extra mystery to the Glory Days screenplay. While Frank and Coolidge would keep some elements of the original Glory Days script, including having the undercover cop's high school identity, Nick Springsteen, be a distant relative of the famous rock star from whose song the script had taken its title. But Coolidge would have Frank add a younger brother for the cop, and add a murdered teacher, who the younger brother is accused of killing, to give the film something extra to work towards. For the cast, Coolidge would go with a mix of newcomers in the main roles, with some industry veterans to fill out the supporting cast. When casting began in early 1987, Coolidge looked at dozens of actors for the lead role of Nick Dunbar, but she was particularly struck by thirty-two year old Arliss Howard, whose film work had been limited to supporting roles in two movies, but was expected to become a star once his role in Stanley Kubrick's next project, Full Metal Jacket, opened later in the summer. Twenty-five year old Suzy Amis, a former model who, like Arlisss, had limited film work in supporting roles, would be cast as Robin, a teacher at the school who Nick develops a crush on while undercover. The supporting cast would include George Wendt from Cheers, Laura Dern's mother Diane Ladd, an Oscar nominee for her role as Flo in Martin Scorsese's Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, veteran character actor Seymour Cassel, an Oscar nominee himself for John Cassavetes' Faces, Robert Stack, the original Elliot Ness who was yet another former Oscar nominee, Harry Shearer, and the great Abe Vigoda. The $7.5m film would begin production in the Seattle metro area on May 6th, 1987 and would last for seven weeks, ending on June 30th. Plain Clothes would open in 193 theatres on April 15th, 1988, including 59 theatres in New York City and eight in Seattle. The reviews would be vicious on the film, with many critics pointing out how ludicrous the plot was, and how distracting it was the filmmakers were trying to pass a thirty two year old actor off as a twenty four year old police officer going undercover as an eighteen year old high school student. Audiences would stay away in droves, with only about 57k people buying a ticket to see the film during the opening three days. A performance so bad, Paramount would end up pulling the film from theatres after seven days at a $289k ticket gross, replacing every screen with another high school-set movie, the similarly-titled Permanent Record, featuring Keanu Reeves, Jennifer Rubin and Kathy Baker, which would also be the final film for Martha Coolidge's regular co-star Michelle Meyrink, who would quit acting the following year and develop an affinity in Zen Buddhism. She would eventually open her own acting studio in her hometown of Vancouver, British Columbia. Not so coincidentally, Martha Coolidge is one of advisory board members of the school. There would be one more movie for Martha Coolidge in the 1980s, a made for television mystery called Trenchcoat in Paradise, featuring Dirk Benedict from Battlestar Galactica and The A-Team, Catherine Oxenberg from Dynasty, and Bruce Dern, but it's not very good and not really work talking about. As the 80s moved into the 90s, Coolidge would continue to work both in television and in motion pictures. In 1991, she would direct her Plain Clothes co-star Diane Ladd alongside Ladd's daughter, Laura Dern, in the Depression-era drama Rambling Rose. But despite unanimous critical consent and Oscar nominations for both Ladd and Dern, the first and only mother-daughter duo to be nominated for the same movie or in the same year, the $7.5m movie would only gross $6.3m. 1993's Lost in Yonkers would be the 23rd film written by Neil Simon, an adaptation of his 1991 Pulitzer Prize-winning play. Actors Irene Worth and Mercedes Ruehl would reprise their Broadway roles for the film, although Richard Dreyfuss would replace Kevin Spacey in the pivotal role as the gangster uncle of two teenage boys who go to live with their aunt after their mother dies. Despite good reviews, the $15m Lost in Yonkers would only gross about $9m. Originally written as a starring vehicle for Madonna, the 1994 romantic-comedy Angie would instead star Geena Davis as an office worker in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, who sets her neighborhood upside-down when she decides to become a single mother. Coolidge's highest budgeted film at $26m, Angie would gross just $9.4m, but would in the years to come become famous for being the first film of James Gandolfini, Michael Rispoli and Aida Turturro, who would all go on to star in five years later. 1995's Three Wishes is a bizarre fantasy drama with Patrick Swayze and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, about two young boys whose mother starts to fall for a mysterious stranger after their father is reported missing during the Korean War. The $10m film would be the worst reviewed movie of Coolidge's career, and would barely gross $7m when it was released. Things would turn around for Coolidge on her next film, Out to Sea. The penultimate film for both Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, this weak but genial romp, according to Janet Maslin of the New York Times, finds the regular co-stars on a Mexico-bound cruise ship, where they must work as dance hosts in order to pay for their trip. Also featuring Golden Girls co-stars Estelle Harris and Rue McClanahan alongside Dyan Cannon and Donald O'Connor, Out to Sea would become her highest grossing film to date, bringing in $29m worth of ticket sales. While she would make a couple more movies, 2004's The Prince and Me and 2006's Material Girls, Coolidge would spend 1999 and the 2000s making her mark on television, directing episodes of CSI, Madame Secretary, Psych and Weeds, amongst dozens of shows, as well as the 1999 HBO film Introducing Dorothy Dandridge, which would not only win its lead star Halle Berry a number of awards including the Emmy, the Golden Globe and the Screen Actors Guild Award, it would be the first screenplay to be produced by a young writer named Shonda Rhimes. Coolidge herself would be nominated for an Emmy and a Golden Globe for Outstanding Directing of a Movie Made for Television. But her biggest achievement in Hollywood would come in 2002, when Coolidge would become the first female President of the Directors Guild of America. And in addition to being an advisor to Michelle Meyrink's acting school, she is also a professor of film studies at Chapman University in Southern California. Thank you for joining us.

Cooper and Nolan (and a wealthy special guest) are playing from the rough this week when they cover CADDYSHACK II! This sub-par sequel features downgrades across the board, and it's forcing the guys to ask questions like: - Where does this rank compared to other golf movies? - What's the sexiest piece of sports equipment? - Is it possible to identify people purely by their genitalia? ...and perhaps most importantly, why was this made? Throw in a bunch of love for Dyan Cannon and you've got the makings of a memorable round. So grab your clubs and come along; this episode (featuring a beer from the Triple Bogey Brewing Co.) is one you won't need to take a mulligan on.
Up With The Sun is the newest historical novel from acclaimed author Thomas Mallon – with a real-life actor at its center. Dick Kallman's career rose and then fizzled out throughout the 1950s and '60s. By the time he and his life partner were murdered in 1980, he was no longer performing. But as the author tells NPR's Scott Simon, Up With The Sun – and Kallman's life, which intersected with stars like Lucille Ball and Dyan Cannon – serves as a window into the world of Broadway, primetime TV, and gay romance across decades.
In this week's alcohol-free episode (i.e. Tommie could not attend), Patrick and his producer/husband Steven welcome back returning guest Avery Bryce Dallas Howard Powell, examine dead dogs at Jamestown, follow the Old Danish Pointer, wish a Happy 86th Birthday to actress Dyan Cannon, say goodbye to Dame Vivienne Westwood, Pele, and Barbara Walters, and good riddance to Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, discover Utah, become mesmerized by World Hypnotism Day, name their favorite fictional political films, and gripe about holiday traffic and the X chair.
Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode investigate whodunnits and murder mysteries on screen, ahead of the streaming release of new Knives Out mystery Glass Onion. Mark talks to Glass Onion director Rian Johnson about why whodunnits are so enduring, who left him star-struck on set, and the classic films and books that inspired his new mystery. And Ellen takes a deep dive into the camp 1973 cult whodunnit The Last of Sheila, written by actor Anthony Perkins and composer Stephen Sondheim following their own outlandish murder mystery parties. Ellen talks to writer Kyle Turner about Sondheim's love of mysteries and the real life stories behind the film. She also speaks to the legendary Dyan Cannon about the larger-than-life Hollywood agent Sue Mengers who inspired her role in The Last of Sheila, and about the film's legacy as a cult classic.
