This episode is a first for Decoder Ring: a live show, recorded at the WBUR Festival in Boston, Massachusetts. Given the setting, we decided to take on a Boston-based cultural mystery: namely, the “Boston movie.” Beginning in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Hollywood has churned out a whole cycle of films drenched in Beantown's particularities, crimes, crops, class conflicts, and accents, from The Departed to The Town. Why does a city smaller than El Paso or Jacksonville loom so large in the cinematic imagination? Why does Boston have a movie subgenre all its own? What makes a Boston movie a Boston movie? With the help of three guests—film critic Ty Burr; Lisa Simmons, founder of the Roxbury International Film Festival; and Boston University linguist Danny Erker—we look closely at the history and heyday of the Boston movie: how The Friends of Eddie Coyle set the template, Good Will Hunting shoved the door wide open, and Mystic River ushered in an imperial phase. We discuss the importance of race and class to the Boston movie and the city itself, the role of homegrown movie stars like Ben Affleck and Mark Wahlberg, and, of course, the best and worst of Boston accents on film. This episode of Decoder Ring was produced by Willa Paskin and Max Freedman. Our team also includes Katie Shepherd and supervising producer Evan Chung. Merritt Jacob is Slate's Technical Director.  If you have any cultural mysteries you want us to decode, please email us at DecoderRing@slate.com, or leave a message on our hotline at 347-460-7281.

Send us a textFriends of EddieThe second 1x1 feature rounding out Season 14 and, chosen by Jack, the film is THE FRIENDS OF EDDIE COYLE (1973). Directed by Peter Yates, whose career TGTPTU is unlikely to cover in a future 4x4 despite having Krull and Bullitt in his credits, TFOEC is an adaptation of George V. Higgins' inaugural novel and notable as a unromanticized depiction of crime in artistic response to The Godfather, the Puzo book and Coppola film each preceding, respectively, the book and movie versions of TFOEC by one year.  Higgins would take issue with the book as his debut novel. The former deputy assistant attorney general claimed to have written and burned 14 novels over 17 years prior to TFOEC and would go on to author over 30 books, both fiction and nonfiction before his fatal heart attack in 1999, but none with the impact of his first. As seasonal guest host Jack points out, nearly all the dialogue in the film is as it is on the page, and the pages are dripping with dialogue that creates the setting and action for this ironic story of “friends” who double-cross and live less than glamorous lives as Irish mobsters and criminals in Boston.  Yates populates the film with faces, faces that we don't see much anymore, distinct faces and every one telling a story, from the titular Coyle plated by Robert Mitchum who earlier in this life reluctantly left the assembly line to be an actor to actor Alex Rocco who starred as Moe Greene in The Godfather and helped Mitchum meet some of his old criminal friends whom Rocco had to leave behind after he (the actor Alex Rocco) was held for questioning in relation to the murder that kicked off the Boston Irish Gang War of the 1960s to James Tolkan before he'd lost his hair a decade prior to portraying Principal Strickland in the Back to the Future movies and Detective Hugh Lubic in the Cannon Films classic Masters of the Universe.  For this episode, everyone did research: Jack and Thomas pair off for book report; Ryan covers the career of Mitchum; and Ken covers Yates and laments how now Hollywood lacks hacks as well as provides a new shaggy dog with The Pals of Charlie Brown. Make sure to wipe your prints clean on this one before listening with a friend. THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gBuzzsprout: https://thegoodthepodandtheugly.buzzsprout.com/Letterboxd (follow us!): Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

When George V. Higgins's first novel, The Friends of Eddie Coyle, was published in 1970, it was widely acclaimed as an insider's look at Boston's criminal underbelly. Three years later, Peter Yates directed Robert Mitchum in one of his best performances as the mid-level gunrunner who is tempted to help “uncle” by turning in his associates to the cops. Join Mike and Dan as they talk about how Robert Mitchum eating pie is better than a thousand bank robberies and how the dialogue for which Higgins is so rightly praised is like the kind of negotiations we make all the time at work, regardless of what we're selling. Hide the irons inside that rustling shopping bag and give it a listen! If you're interested in the terrific novel upon which the film is based, you can find it here.

This week, we discuss two crime films from the 1970s. The first is Mikey and Nicky (1976), written and directed by Elaine May. It stars John Cassavetes as a desperate small-time mobster and Peter Falk as his longtime, childhood friend. The second is The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1973), starring Robert Mitchum and Peter Boyle and directed by Peter Yates. The screenplay was adapted from the 1970 novel by George V. Higgins, who also wrote Cogan's Trade, the novel which later became the 2012 Andrew Dominik film Killing Them Softly.   Timestamps What we've been watching (00:00:52) – Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, Gone Girl, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Mission: Impossible – Fallout Mikey and Nicky (00:30:10) The Friends of Eddie Coyle (01:03:00) Coin toss (01:28:20)   Links Instagram - @callitfriendopodcast @munnywales @andyjayritchie   Letterboxd – @andycifpod   Justwatch.com – streaming and rental links - https://www.justwatch.com What Remains of Edith Finch – The Cannery - https://youtu.be/WQBlSnsT5bc?feature=shared

Peter Yates was quietly one of the most interesting film directors of his time. His seminal 1967 British train-robbery film 'Robbery' got him noticed for the job directing Steve McQueen in 1968's 'Bullitt'.  In that film, Yates turned in a car chase frequently mentioned as second only to the iconic one filmed by Billy Friedkin in 'The French Connection'. By 1973,  Yates was in Hollywood, working under a three-picture deal with Peter Bart and Robert Evans at Paramount.  Two of those didn't work out. The third turned out to be 'The Friends of Eddie Coyle', which is one of the very best 70's crime films, one of the very best Boston-set films ever made, and features Robert Mitchum's very best performance amid a wonderfully constructed neo-noir shot entirely on location in a series of blue-collar and working class Boston spots. In this episode, I talk about 'Robbery', 'Bullitt' and 'The French Connection' and how they compare and contrast to 'The Friends of Eddie Coyle', an underappreciated little masterpiece of the sort Peter Yates specialized in throughout his career.

In this first episode of the new season, host Dr Pasquale Iannone is joined by Film Studies colleague Dr Ana Salzberg (Senior Lecturer in Film Studies) to discuss autumn in film.Main films discussed:Something Wicked This Way Comes (Jack Clayton, 1983) IMDb: https://edin.ac/45BaHOlThe Friends of Eddie Coyle (Peter Yates, 1973) IMDb: https://edin.ac/3PW21w5Staff pages:Dr Ana Salzberg https://www.ed.ac.uk/profile/dr-ana-salzbergDr Pasquale Iannone https://www.ed.ac.uk/profile/piannone

In and out of jail is the latest theme. Robert Mitchum, a show favorite, once again does not disappoint in "The Friends of Eddie Coyle" (1973). Mitchum is supported by a stellar cast and a tight script.  "Straight Time" (1978) is a little known Dustin Hoffman movie with him.a different kind of role -  a man  fresh out of prison who soon realizes that the deck is stacked against him. Any film that has M. Emmett Walsh, Harry Dean Stanton and Gary Busey in it has to be good, right? Next, Asian romance with "In the Mood for Love" (2000) and Past Lives (2023)Have your own recommendations? Contact the show:24theroadshow@gmail.com

Nuclear Annihilation is the theme this weak.  First, "On the beach provide a yawning stare into oblivion. We suggest some ways it could be spiced up (hint/: Ava Gardner is involved). Next up, Sidney Lumet's "Fail Safe" manages to do a lot with just old guys talking in rooms (26:34). Probably not in Lumet's top 5, but it entertains to the last scene.  And we learn never to cross Walter Matthau. Next week: In and Out of Jail w/ The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1973) and Straight Time (1978).Have your own recommendations?

Can a two-hour film accomplish what it takes several seasons of a TV show to do? We're talking to you, Sopranos. Join Mike and Dan for a conversation about John Mackenzie's The Long Good Friday (1980), a film that they call the "spiritual cousin" of The Sopranos and The Friends of Eddie Coyle. They talk about how the film avoids the intuitive trap of offering a day in the life of its protagonist and instead gives us a day of absolute crisis and the ways in which Harold is like many people having a bad day at the office. Deadwood, The Shield, and even James Joyce's Ulysses all come into play. So get out of that abattoir and give it a listen! Dan compares the film to the classic crime novel The Friends of Eddie Coyle, which you can find here. You might also enjoy Paul Elliott's Studying the British Crime Film, available here.

Happy Halloween, everybody! This week our show is invaded by a force of pure good as we watch two movies which are rooted in the invasion of evil. We're joined by our friend, Dylan, as we take a deep and tangential look at Something Wicked This Way Comes and Sleepy Hollow. Sleep Hollow discussion begins at 01:44:47 Check out The Nightgate Journal by Dylan D. Erwin at: https://dylanderwin.bandcamp.com/album/the-nightgate-journal Next week's episode: Blow Out X The Friends of Eddie Coyle

This week, we're talking about "The Friends of Eddie Coyle," a 1973 film that critic Ty Burr says is foundational to Boston crime movies.

Dr Glenn McConell chats with Professor Michael Joyner from the Mayo Clinic. He has a remarkable background being an anaesthesiologist with wealth of research experience and knowledge in exercise physiology. More recently he has published around 20 high impact papers on the use of convalescent plasma in Covid19! An example of how he is so open to new ideas. A very interesting chat. Twitter: @DrMJoyner. 0:00. Introduction 1:45. Eliud Kipchoge's recent marathon world record 3:27. Michael's athletic background 4:32. Determinants of endurance performance. Including more discussion of Kipchoge. 8:09. Greatest athletes historically. Remarkable knowledge. Hard to compare different eras. 10:50. High lactate thresholds. Fiber types, mitochondria, capillarization. 14:25. Classic exercise studies. John Holloszy. Rodent and human studies. Frank Booth, Ken Baldwin. Eddie Coyle retraining study etc. 17:32. Anaesthesiology vs exercise Anaesthesiologist. 19:36. Use of convalescent plasma and Covid19. Heavily involved in instigating the use of convalescent plasma from people who have had Covid19. Challenging precision medicine. 27:19. Convalescent plasma and cancer. Repurposing skills to solve problems. Picasso: “Learn the rules like a pro, break them like an artist”. 29:40. A 1:50 marathon 32:51. Twitter and his cancer research 33:55. Strength vs aerobic capacity for longevity. Frailty: Decline greatly from middle 70s. Circuit training get strength and aerobic capacity. 39:00. Exercise is integrative physiology. An exercise pill to cover everything that exercise does makes no sense. 41:38. Adherence to diet and exercise. 5-6 healthy habits of 90 year olds 45:23. Resistance training as age 46:35. Don't have to have a reason to do things. Stepping back from return on investment thinking. 50:08. Identity anchors disrupted by Covid 51:12. Being open to ideas/resilient. Learning how to stumble into things and go with it. Inside Exercise brings to you the who's who of exercise metabolism, exercise physiology and exercise's effects on health. With scientific rigor, these researchers discuss popular exercise topics while providing practical strategies for all. The interviewer, Emeritus Professor Glenn McConell, has an international research profile following 30 years of Exercise Metabolism research experience while at The University of Melbourne, Ball State University, Monash University, the University of Copenhagen and Victoria University. He has published over 120 peer reviewed journal articles and recently edited an Exercise Metabolism eBook written by world experts on 17 different topics (https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-94305-9).

Glenn McConell chats with Professor Eddie Coyle from the University of Texas at Austin. Eddie has been instrumental in our understanding of the effects of carbohydrate ingestion and fluid ingestion during prolonged exercise and also physiological characteristics of endurance athletes (amongst other areas). Here we talk about his more recent very important and novel work. 0:00 Introduction 3:08. Inactivity and exercise resistance. His studies are showing that if you do not undertake enough steps during the day (inactive) then when you exercise at night you will not increase your fat oxidation and triglyceride clearance the next day. Standing no better than sitting in regards to fat oxidation and triglyceride clearance the next day. What about if exercise twice a day or exercise hours a day then are inactive the rest of the time? How does exercise resistance fit with the fact that we generally find people with the lowest VO2 maxes have the biggest increases in VO2 max with exercise training? VO2 max adaptations compared with metabolic adaptations with exercise training in inactive vs active participants. Need to walk enough so that you don't turn on the unhealthy responses to inactivity and then you need to exercise more vigorously to increase aerobic capacity and get those benefits as well. Important "to move": Increasing from 2000 steps a day to 6000 steps per day to prevent the negative effects of inactivity (independent of true exercise). 24:00. 4 second repeated sprints. A type of very short sprint interval training (SIT). High forces without large increases in lactic acid production that occur with 20-30 second sprints (HIIT). Short rest periods so aerobic component. Remarkably one ends up with increases in VO2max, anaerobic capacity, strength and metabolic adaptations such as improvements in insulin sensitivity. Also neuromuscular adaptations. 18-30 x 4 sec sprints with 15-45 sec recovery (depending on stage and age). 10-20 min long training sessions. Similar increases in VO2 max with these repeated 4 sec sprints as see with continuous training or HIIT training (20-30 sec sprints). 50-70 yr olds respond similarly to younger participants and actually obtained thigh hypertrophy from the 4 sec sprint training. People tolerate it well and he is receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback. Improved activities of daily life. Mechanisms of increases in VO2 max: has shown an increase in blood volume and red blood cell mass. Assuming increases in left ventricle mass (hasn't examined). He is producing a special bike (inertial load ergometer) suited to this type of training. 48:00. Efficiency in cyclists. Also, I took the opportunity to ask Eddie a controversial question about whether he thought cyclists improve their efficiency with training (given he had shown this with Lance Armstrong).

In the twenty-fourth episode of Season 6 (Heists, Cons, & Grifters) Kyle is joined by fellow podcaster Daniel Lopez (of the Ghosts Podcast) and musician Ben Childs to discuss the coded innuendo and systemic criminality in the world of principled thieves, blue collar mobsters, and self-preserving stool pigeons that makes up the underworld of Peter Yates' The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1973).

Hop in the getaway car as we fumble through an already ill-conceived score gone wrong with part 2 of our ongoing deep dive on crime cinema with 1973's The Friends of Eddie Coyle, the godfather of Boston crime yarns. But on the way to the heist, we first gorge ourselves with Blue Plate Special topics as varied as Alex Garland's latest assault on the modern subconscious (Men), the unexpected yet welcome brilliance of Top Gun: Maverick, the utterly rotten and dishonorable Paramount+ televisual product The Offer, and a mourning of the loss of star Ray Liotta. Upon arriving to the subject of today's episode, we tackle what this movie gains from the monumental star presence of Robert Mitchum and how this work effectively threads the needle as a gripping genre offering and simultaneous paranoid, Watergate-era New Hollywood statement. Whew, ok, we think we'd like our phone call now... Feel free to skip to 2:31:07 for the beginning of our audio commentary.

Sister Liz is our guest storyteller, bringing another troubling tale from the great northwest. We also discuss the merits of “The Thomas Crown Affair” (the 1968 version) versus “The Friends of Eddie Coyle,” both bank robber movies shot in Boston in the late 1960s and early 1970s. And Rebecca and Maureen give the NNW treatment […]

After a brief hiatus due to illness, Jason exposed Arco to the quiet, sad genius that is Peter Yates' 1973 Boston-noir classic, The Friends of Eddie Coyle [02:45], while Arco sent Jason back to the Bay--Michael Bay's ode to masculine obligation (and quirky Nicholas Cage facial expressions), The Rock [33:18].

Nothing like a gangster movie to get us talking about the alienation and the lack of community under capitalism. But beside (and because of) that, this is just such a fantastically bleak movie. Peter Yates directs Robert Mitchum and Peter Boyle in The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1973).

Rafael Gaitan joins Jason to talk about two classic films, The Departed, starring a super cast of actors and directed by Martin Scorcese, and The Friends of Eddie Coyle, a classic 1970s crime flick starring Robert Mitchum and Peter Boyle, and directed by Peter Yates. Raf is a real film historian and does a great job of painting a fascinating picture of the world the characters of both movies are facing, pulling out small elements of each film which illuminate their greatness. It's a fascinating hour of listening! If you enjoyed the episode, please be sure to subscribe and to rate the show on iTunes! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jason-sacks/message

We talk about the quintessential Boston crime novel, The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1970) and compare it to the film adaptation, starring Robert Mitchum. Hard boiled dialogue and hard nosed criminals trying to avoid doing hard time. 

We continue Noirvember 2020 with a look at Peter Yates's The Friends of Eddie Coyle. Based on the novel by George V. Higgins, the film stars Robert Mitchum as the titular Coyle, an over-the-hill small time crook who's trying to get by in the milieu of Boston's underground. The film is rich with incredible character actors like Peter Boyle, Richard Jordan, Alex Rocco, and more.Andrew J. Rausch and Eric J. Peterson join Mike to discuss the film as well as crime writing and the Boston beat.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The new film of the week is Netflix's PROJECT POWER, starring Jamie Foxx and good ol' JGL. Does it deliver the goods that an action romp should, or does it fall flat on its face? The boys will let you know with a spirited discussion. Our PICK SIX segment starts off with sailing puns and various jokes about boats, but our hosts get serious about ranking the SIX BEST FILMS SET AT SEA. Two very different lists this time, and it makes for healthy debate and a hearty discussion of James Cameron's strengths & weaknesses. And for the THROWBACK CHALLENGE, listener Jake Miller tossed us the 1973 crime flick THE FRIENDS OF EDDIE COYLE, directed by Peter Yates and starring Robert Mitchum and Peter Boyle. It's another 70's classic for Noah to cross off his list and a chance for Andy to further enrich his deep love for that particular decade of cinema.
