Welcome to the twelfth episode of our ongoing series: Fascism On Film. Each episode of this series, the Holmes Brothers look and review a film that has to do with fascism. During the episodes, the brothers look and see how the aspects and portrayal of fascism shown in the film relate to current and/or past events.On this Fascism on Film episode, the Holmes Brothers look at and discuss the historical drama from Italian director Gillo Pontecorvo: Burn!. The film stars Marlon Brando, Renato Salvatori and Evaristo Márquez. Brando stars as a British agent provocateur called Sir William Walker who is sent to the island of Queimada, an island in the Lesser Antilles and a Portuguese colony. He is asked to overthrow the island through a slave revolt in order for the British sugar trade to profit from. Walker meets and befriends José Dolores who becomes a leader of the slave rebellion. Things turn complicated when Dolores leads a revolt against the new rulers. Brando said he did the best acting of his career on the film Burn! despite how difficult it was to make. Even though they quarrelled on set, Evaristo Márquez had to act as mediator between them, Brando said Pontecorvo was one of the three best directors he ever worked with. The other two were Elia Kazan and Bernardo Bertolucci.

Welcome back to The Conner & Smith Show!This week, Ryan Dean Halbrook and Stephen begin a brand-new three-part series exploring the complete film career of one of our favorite actors of all time — James Dean.We start where it all began with East of Eden, Elia Kazan's emotionally explosive 1955 adaptation of the John Steinbeck novel that introduced James Dean to the world and instantly changed movie acting forever.Raw, vulnerable, rebellious, and deeply human, Dean's performance as Cal Trask still feels startlingly modern — and this episode dives deep into why his work continues to resonate decades later.This is the first chapter in our James Dean trilogy series, where over the next three weeks we'll also explore Rebel Without a Cause and Giant — the only three films Dean completed before his tragic death at just 24 years old.If you love classic Hollywood, intense performances, film history, and actors who changed cinema forever… this episode is for you.
« Je ne veux pas de réalisme… Je veux… de la magie ! »Dans cet épisode, Victoire, Pascale et Jeanne comparent la célèbre pièce Un tramway nommé Désir de Tennessee Williams (1947) et son adaptation en film réalisée par Elia Kazan (1951).Blanche DuBois, ancienne aristocrate du Sud des Etats-Unis en pleine déchéance, débarque chez sa sœur Stella et son beau-frère Stanley Kowalski. Entre cette femme raffinée et pleine d'illusions, et cet homme brutal et animal, le choc est immédiat. Et dans le minuscule appartement de la Nouvelle-Orléans, la tension va monter et faire voler en éclats les apparences...Dès sa première mise en scène à Broadway, Un tramway nommé Désir suscite la fascination et le scandale. Mais adapter cette pièce au cinéma, à l'époque du Code Hays qui censure toutes les pulsions, a été un défi pour les producteurs. Au programme, on vous raconte : Comment Elia Kazan a-t-il traduit en images le théâtre de Tennessee Williams ? Comment ce film a-t-il consacré Vivien Leigh et révélé le jeune Marlon Brando ? Et comment la censure du cinéma des années 1950 a-t-elle modifié des éléments de la pièce ?Ecoutez cet épisode pour découvrir si on est Team Livre ou Team Film !Et vous, avez-vous lu ou vu Un tramway nommé Désir ?Recommandations :La Ménagerie de verre, une pièce de Tennessee Williams (1944)True Detective, Saison 1, une série créée par Nic Pizzolatto (2014)Autant en emporte le vent, réalisé par Victor Fleming et George Cukor (1939)En attendant Bojangles, écrit par Olivier Bourdeaut (2015)Die My Love, réalisé par Lynne Ramsay (2025)Vol au-dessus d'un nid de coucou, réalisé par Milos Forman (1975)
SEASON 2 - EPISODE 188 - Nick Kazan - Writer In this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, we speak with writer Nick Kazan (BICENTENNIAL MAN, MATILDA, DREAM LOVER). Nick has been writing professionally for decades, and we spend much of our conversation with him discussing what he finds to work and not work in a screenplay. Nick also shares his relationship to a script after it's entered production, and we discuss how changes made during production can enhance a scene. We also learn how he's balanced writing spec scripts with assignments, what his opinion of the three act structure is, what he needs to know before he begins writing, and when he recognizes his writing is working. Nick also shares how a Harold Pinter play inspired him to begin writing in the first place, and we learn how he's been chasing the experience of writing for the very first time ever since. Plus, Nick reveals why he didn't leverage his the reputation of his father (director Elia Kazan) to build his own career, and we ask Nick: "What makes a good writer?" - Recommended Viewing: SHAMPOO - This episode is sponsored by Aputure

JEOPARDY! champion Buzzy Cohen returns to Better Than the Movie for a third short-story-to-film adaptation discussion. This time it's the tragicomic showbiz/political tale A FACE IN THE CROWD (1957), written by Budd Schulberg and directed by Elia Kazan, based on Schulberg's short story, "Your Arkansas Traveler." Future lovable sitcom dad Andy Griffith stars as Larry "Lonesome" Rhodes, a vagabond folk singer who becomes a TV sensation and fledgling demagogue. It's a film chock full of great performances that also acts as a sad reflection on the times -- both then and now. There are lots of Lonesome Rhodes in the world, at varying points of the good-evil continuum. Some of the Lonesomes the BTTM crew discuss here include Ronald Reagan, Donald Trump, Bruce Springsteen, and Dhar Mann. You won't want to miss this one.

Black History Month has inspired me to cover 3 (of what will be 4) race-related movies in February, but Pinky is the most overt about that charged topic. Ethel Waters has a key role as Jeanne Crain's granny in Elia Kazan's complicated movie...while Crain plays a mixed-race woman who passes for white, dealing with mean-spirited racism in the south while her boyfriend just wants her to go back up north and be white. Pinky turns into a courtroom movie after the dying Ethel Barrymore's racist rich neighbour decides to leave her house to her nurse (Crain)...and the will ends up being contested. I also spent some time talking earnestly about the evolution of race and racism...and about my own history with it. So don't let me guilt you into doing something you don't want to do. Except I'll collapse and probably DIE if you don't put your ears to the 719th ep on Have You Ever Seen. (now THAT's guilt!) Well, Actually: the line about "sometimes when you win, you actually lose" is of course not from When Harry Met Sally...it's from White Men Can't Jump. Also, Kazan was nominated 5 times for Best Director, not 6. Become a subscriber to the channel and help the podcast grow. Rate and review the show as well. And hunt me down on Letterboxd: RyanHYES.

On the latest episode of A Life In Movies, the movie interview podcast by All The Right Movies, we're talking to legendary actor James Woods.With a career spanning five decades, James has built a reputation as one of cinema's most compelling performers. An actor drawn to morally complex characters and unafraid to inhabit the darkest corners of human nature. A two-time Academy Award nominee with multiple Emmy wins to his name, his filmography reads like a masterclass in intensity.Speaking to us from Los Angeles, James takes us through the key moments that shaped his remarkable career. From his early days studying Political Science at MIT before the pull of acting proved too strong, to his film debut working with the legendary Elia Kazan. We dive deep into five landmark films: David Cronenberg's prophetic body-horror Videodrome, Sergio Leone's epic Once Upon a Time in America opposite Robert De Niro, Oliver Stone's raw and urgent Salvador (which earned him his first Oscar nomination), the action-comedy The Hard Way with Michael J. Fox, and Martin Scorsese's Casino where he brought the slippery Lester Diamond to unforgettable life.James also shares insights into his approach to those morally ambiguous characters that have become his trademark, his acclaimed television work, the compelling story behind his Executive Producer credit on Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer and his most recent artistic endeavour in music. A fascinating conversation with one of American cinema's most distinctive talents.Connect with ATRM: To join our fantastic community of film fans, support what we do, access our archive, listen to exclusive episodes, and a whole lot more, become an ATRM patron:Join the ATRM Community We're available on any podcast platform:Listen on Apple PodcastsListen on SpotifyYouTube: Subscribe to our channelWe're across all major social channels too:Twitter: @ATRightMoviesInstagram: @allthe_rightmovies Facebook: Join our movie groupBluesky: @alltherightmovies.comTikTok: @alltherightmoviesWebsite: alltherightmovies.com

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie directors! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we discuss Richard Linklater! He's an American indie legend who we recently just spoke to! With two new films out here at the end of 2025 (Blue Moon and Nouvelle Vague), we discuss his B-Sides: SubUrbia, The Newton Boys, Me and Orson Welles, and Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood. Our guest is Ryland Aldrich, our dear friend, an accomplished producer and experienced writer on film, as well as the creator of FYCit App,“the number one smartphone app for awards voters and guild members to find awards screenings, events, and content for all the season's top contenders.” Conor, Ryland, and I dig into our love for Linklater, the highs and lows of his long, accomplished career, and his continued improvement as a stylist. We debate Ethan Hawke's chances of getting an Oscar nomination for his Blue Moon performance, the lasting cultural relevance of School of Rock, and Orson Welles' famous response to a question about Elia Kazan many years ago. There's also mention of the Mercury Theater's famous 1938 broadcast of “The War of the Worlds,” the documentary Chasing Chasing Amy, and those real-life clips of The Newton Boys.
"CG: The Woolner brothers came to the Garden of Allah and we had a meeting in the Garden, where all the stars used to sneak away to make out. They wanted a gang picture, as it was the time of the street gangs and juvenile delinquents. I told them I had one called "The Rat Pack" and they said they wanted a girl gang. So I got to work on Teenage Doll, which was Larry Woolner taking the title of [Elia] Kazan's Baby Doll [1956]. But the Johnson Bureau, or the Hays Office – I forget which was in at the time – rejected the story. AG: So you had to re-write it over the weekend? CG: Well I had to ruin it over the weekend."

In this week's episode of the Gloria Grahame Acteurist Oeuvre-view series, our heroine battles an organized crime ring in Fritz Lang's classic noir The Big Heat and the Soviets, or in any case her beleaguered circus capitalist husband, Fredric March, in Elia Kazan's Man on a Tightrope (both 1953). Dave and Elise are somewhat at odds about the effectiveness of Tightrope's anti-censorship message, but united on the effectiveness of Lang's use of the noir genre, and Grahame, to depict heroism in a world familiar with the horrors of fascism.

A life lost way too soon at 24 years old, James Dean will always be remembered as one of Hollywood's greatest actors. Add to that feat the fact that he only had leading roles in three films and his potential becomes infinitely more devastating. In honoring him seventy years after his passing, Sophia and Nick look back at two of his films that were also released that same year: Elia Kazan's triumphant adaptation of John Steinbeck's epic novel, East of Eden, and Nicholas Ray's definitive portrait of 1950's America, Rebel Without a Cause (34:24). Listen as they discuss Dean's career highlights and how his performances stand out even among many other Oscar nominees (and a winner!) and CinemaScope beauty that transports us back in time.

This episode looks at On the Waterfront, the celebrated 1954 American film directed by Elia Kazan and written by Budd Schulberg. The film stars Marlon Brando as the ex-prize fighter turned New Jersey longshoreman Terry Malloy. Malloy struggles to stand up to mob-affiliated union boss Johnny Friendly (Lee J. Cobb) after Malloy is lured into setting up a fellow dockworker whom Friendly has murdered to prevent him from testifying before the Waterfront Crime Commission about violence and corruption at the docks. The pressure on Malloy rises as he falls in love with Edie Doyle (Eva Marie Saint), the murdered dockworker's sister, and as Edie, along with local priest Father Pete Barry (Karl Malden), urge Malloy to do the right thing. Malloy ultimately testifies against Friendly and challenges Friendly's leadership at great personal risk. While the film is about a courageous fight against a corrupt power structure and injustice, it is also influenced by director Elia Kazan's own controversial decision to act as an informant against fellow directors, writers, and actors during the McCarthy-era Red Scare.Timestamps:0:00 Introduction2:20 Corruption on the docks9:18 Boxing: I could have been a contender17:07 The priest on the waterfront23:44 Testifying before waterfront crime commission32:10 Informants34:48 Elia Kazan and the House Un-American Activities Committee47:04 The film's relevance today48:39 Some people who stood up to HUAC50:40 Separating the art and the artistFurther reading:Demeri, Michelle J., “The ‘Watchdog' Agency: Fighting Organized Crime on the Waterfront in New York and New Jersey,” 38 New Eng.

Today, I'm thrilled to announce my interview with Lane Bradbury, who played the role of Dainty June in the original Broadway cast of GYPSY. Tune in to hear some of the stories of her legendary career, including why Ethel Merman wasn't a good co-star, joining the Actor's Studio, method acting with Elia Kazan for J.B., why Bette Davis was suspicious of her during THE NIGHT OF THE IGUANA, watching Patrick O'Neill and Bette Davis in rehearsal, the moment in GYPSY that caused a rift between her and Jerome Robbins, Lee Strasberg's favorite acting exercises, why she didn't audition for FIDDLER ON THE ROOF, working with June Havoc herself on MARATHON '33, how an audition for GREENWILLOW led her to move to California, putting together her cabaret act, why Audra McDonald is Broadway's best Mama Rose, why she doesn't own the OBC of GYPSY, and so much more. You won't want to miss this episode with a true theater veteran.
Aaaaaaand we're back. Episode 1 of season 14 of the Dana Gould Hour Podcast. Has anything of interest happened since the last episode? Don't think so. Certainly not here in Los Angeles, or America. Okay. Great. Let's get at it! Drew Friedman is here. Drew Friedman is one of the premiere illustrators and cartoonists in America. You know his work from The New York Observer, the New Yorker, his books, Warts And All, Old Jewish Comedians, More Old Jewish Comedians, Still More Old Jewish Comedians, Too Soon, Drew Friedman's Sideshow Freaks, Heroes Of The Comics, More Heroes Of The Comics, the list goes on and on. In 1987 I discovered his book Any Similarity to Persons Living Or Dead is Purely Coincidental and it quite literally redefined my sense of humor. It is hard to articulate the impact the book had on me. No kidding. Drew has a new book out called Schtick Figures, portraits of people important to Drew. And me. People he refers to as The Cool, The Comical and The Crazy. Portraits of people like Gilbert Gottfried, #2 and #3 as only Drew can draw them. Drew is also the subject of a new documentary that's about to be released entitled The Vermeer Of The Borscht Belt, Drew Friedman is here. Kurt Sayenga is a writer, director and producer. We first met when Kurt ran the series Eli Roth's History Of Horror. Kurt now has a series on Shudder called Horror's Greatest. Season #2 just dropped, with guests like Davi Dastmalchian, Joe Hill, Jonah Ray, Alex Winter, Mick Garris, yours truly and many, many more. Kurt's here to talk about the show and the topics covered this season as it continues to explore our fascination with all things cinematically horrific. Cinematically horrific. If you want to examine the realistically horrific, True Tales From Weirdsville takes a deep dive into the 1957 classic A Face In Crowd, starring Andy Griffith, written by Budd Schulberg and directed by Elia Kazan. It tells the cautionary tale of what happens when a corrupt, amoral grifter gains a position of power and influence in America. It was made in 1957 and it was a FREAKISHLY predictive film. https://www.DanaGould.com

A masterpiece of movies, On the Waterfront, came out 70 years ago, and this week the writer Stephen Rebello reveals how the classic film almost did not get made due to a feud between Marlon Brando and director Elia Kazan. Then John Beck reports on foreign diplomats who turn to bootlegging, drug dealing, and more in order to keep the lights on at their consulates. And on the subject of foreign affairs and cloak-and-dagger exploits, Aatish Taseer joins us from Tokyo with an incredible yarn. It's the story of how, in the 1990s, the Iranian government traded a painting by Willem de Kooning for a priceless copy of an illustrated manuscript—and how the secret buyer of the painting was David Geffen.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this special fan Q&A episode, I'm answering some incredible questions you've all sent me!

Plus, I share my take on the much-debated ending of The Sopranos and talk about some of the genius directors I've had the honor of collaborating with, including Quentin Tarantino, Robert De Niro, Elia Kazan, William Friedkin, Woody Allen, and Steven Spielberg. Ever wondered if I really drove that Cadillac Coupe DeVille in reverse during A Bronx Tale? I reveal whether that iconic scene was pure movie magic or not. And for those curious about the casting of young Cee—was he actually Kathrine Narducci's real son? I answer that, too! Let's address challenges, spread awareness, and inspire positive action. It's time to stand up for what's right. Tune in now and be a part of the change we wish to see in the world.
