In 1989, Steven Soderbergh was on top of the world. By 1995, he was underneath...THE UNDERNEATH, that is! We're talking Sodie's very loose remake of the 1949 Robert Siodmak film noir CRISS-CROSS (and the 1934 novel on which it was based), noir in the 1990s, armored cars, and Soderbergh's evolving film language as he becomes the director we all know and love. Nobody's favorite Sodie movie, but maybe somebody's favorite ep? Remains to be seen! Further Reading: Criss Cross by Don Tracy Steven Soderbergh: Interviews ed.

Don't [expletive] with the babysitter! The 1987 flick, Adventures in Babysitting, was an action-packed comedy filled with quotable quotes, car chases, and even a couple of f-bombs. A then 22-year-old Elizabeth Shue danced, ran, and sang the blues, launching the movie into cult-classic status. But now, decades later, does it all feel like a chore? Should Shue's “Chris” have called it quits two hours earlier? And just how popular was that issue of Playboy magazine?

We were shocked to discover that 1987's Adventures in Babysitting doesn't have a DVD or Blu Ray audio commentary.  After interviewing screenwriter David Simkins in 2022, we asked if he would be willing to record an audio commentary for Adventures in Babysitting and, to our delight, he agreed to do it.    In typical NWPP fashion, the recording didn't go exactly as planned.  At roughly 6 minutes into the movie, the audio of the film can be heard during the commentary.  We've done our best to reduce the film's audio track but it was impossible to totally remove it.  We recommend turning the audio down on your TV or device, and let our audio take over.   One other call out, we recorded the audio commentary watching the PG-13 version of the movie not the one on Disney+. Enough with the caveats.  David shares funny and insightful behind-the-scenes stories and talks about how the movie came together including working with Debra Hill and Lynda Obst.  We discuss the challenges of shooting both in Chicago and Canada.  David talks about how the famous blues bar scene came together, casting Elizabeth Shue, working with Chris Columbus and how Sara's obsession with Thor came to be.  It's   We believe this is the only audio commentary available for Adventures in Babysitting.  We can't thank David Simkins enough for agreeing to do this with us.  We hope you enjoy.

On this week's episode of Unclear and Present Danger, we watched the The Second Civil War, a 1997 satirical film directed by Joe Dante for HBO. Starring James Earl Jones, Elizabeth Peña, Denis Leary, Beau Bridges, Phil Hartman and James Coburn, The Second Civil War takes place in a future where rapid, unlimited immigration has produced a balkinized society of ethnic enclaves. California is essentially been re-absorbed into Mexico and Rhode Island is home to millions of Chinese migrants. When an international relief organization makes plans to bring Pakistani refugees into Idaho, the state's governor, played by Beau Bridges, orders the its national guard to close the borders, sparking a stand-off with the federal government. As both sides escalate, Americans start to choose sides, with other western states joining Idaho in its pushback against Washington.Eventually, the war of words becomes an actual war, as shooting starts between the U.S. Army and the various national guards now allied with Idaho.As viewers, we see all of this unfold through the eyes of a news network, whose anchors and reporters are on the scene, covering developments as they occur.The tagline for The Second Civil War was “A Very Uncivil Comedy.”You can find The Second Civil War streaming for free on YouTube.Our next episode will be on The Saint, the 1997 thriller adapted from the television show of the same name, directed by Phillip Noyce and starring Val Kilmer and Elizabeth Shue.And don't forget our Patreon, where we watch the films of the Cold War and try to unpack them as political and historical documents!

This film, known for its groundbreaking visual effects and darker thematic elements, explores the story of a scientist who becomes invisible—and the unforeseen consequences that follow.The Hollow Man centres around Sebastian Caine, a brilliant but arrogant scientist leading a team of researchers developing an invisibility serum for the military. When Sebastian successfully tests the serum on himself, he's unable to reverse the process. As his initial fascination with invisibility turns into obsession, the power to evade the gaze of others steers him down a dark and dangerous path.As Sebastian grapples with his newfound abilities, the thrill of invisibility soon morphs into a perilous psychological battle. His invisibility becomes both a tool and a weapon, and his inability to return to visibility exacerbates his descent into madness. The tension escalates as Sebastian's moral compass disintegrates, leading him to commit acts that terrorize his colleagues.The Hollow Man probes deep into themes of power and its ability to corrupt absolutely. Sebastian's journey is a stark reminder of how isolation—not just physical but emotional and ethical—can strip away humanity.

In this episode, communication expert Matt Abrahams shares his insights on effective leadership communication through his "four I's" framework: Information, Impact, Invitation, and Implications. He underscores the need for clear, audience-tailored communication, emphasizing empathy and curiosity. Matt discusses the balance between personal authenticity and team support, highlighting the crucial role of feedback and ongoing self-improvement. Drawing on his martial arts background and stories involving his son, he advocates for adapting to various contexts and honing delivery skills. Matt concludes with encouraging listeners to proactively develop their communication abilities.     Key Takeaways [02:30] Matt talks about his experience as a martial artist for 40 years. He says it has kept him healthy and taught him important life skills. He mainly practices a form of karate and also studies Tai Chi. He also mentions he liked the movie “The Karate Kid” partly because of Elizabeth Shue, who was an important part of his life at that time. [03:38] Matt emphasizes the importance of communication in leadership. He says leaders should focus on clear, meaningful communication that is tailored to their audience. Matt notes two challenges: knowing too much about a topic and being too passionate can hinder effective communication. He suggests using empathy and curiosity to understand the audience better. He also highlights the need for good intergenerational communication in the workplace. Different generations work together, so leaders should adapt and respect different perspectives. [06:20] Matt believes managers should help people improve their work. He suggests turning tough conversations into opportunities to solve problems together, which encourages collaboration and reduces defensiveness. Matt emphasizes using a structure, especially in high-stress conversations. He introduces the "four I's" framework: Information, Impact, Invitation, and Implications. This framework helps keep conversations clear and focused, making them easier to handle. [10:36] Matt believes good leadership involves balancing personal authenticity with helping the team. He compares this to the yin-yang dynamic, blending different approaches. Sometimes leaders should take charge, while other times they should let others lead. Matt supports Kim Scott's idea of radical candor. He thinks creating a culture of feedback is important, including positive, neutral, and constructive feedback. Leaders should ask for specific feedback, express gratitude, and show they can change based on the feedback. He also emphasizes that regularly seeking input in the right way leads to better communication and growth. [15:20] Matt explains that the root of "communication" is about connecting with others. He stresses the importance of taking time to connect, which saves time by preventing problems later. In crisis communication, Matt advises managing oneself, aligning messaging, and staying consistent. Being open, proactive, and practicing for crises helps organizations handle them effectively. [19:40] Matt emphasizes the importance of being genuine and connecting to what you communicate, even if you don't fully agree. Nonverbal cues like body language and voice tone are key in conveying authenticity. He stresses the need to practice delivery to avoid filler words and ensure clear messaging. Matt acknowledges that language evolves over time, and generational communication patterns may differ. He tries to respect these differences and focus on the intent behind people's words. If asked, he offers advice, but he generally remains open to different communication styles. [22:03] Matt believes trust comes from connecting with others, which involves slowing down, listening, and giving honest feedback. He acknowledges the pressure to move quickly but says effective leaders take time to understand people and build relationships. In martial arts, Matt sees a connection with communication in observing, listening, and connecting. He prefers working with small startups to build strong communication processes from the start. Matt also emphasizes that communication isn't just about speaking but also includes listening to understand what you're responding to. [26:58] Matt shares a story about learning from his son that using certain slang terms can seem inauthentic. This shows the importance of recognizing patterns and adapting communication to the context and audience. He stresses the need for authenticity and flexibility in communication, adjusting our approach based on what we observe. Matt believes practice, reflection, and feedback are key to improving communication. He suggests reflecting daily and weekly on what worked and what didn't, and asking for feedback from others to learn and improve. Leaders should encourage reflection on communication in meetings and seek input from others to enhance overall communication quality. [31:26] Matt likes the quote, "Every journey begins with one step," and applies it to communication. He notes that even experienced leaders can feel nervous about communicating, and improvement takes time. Matt encourages everyone to work on their communication skills because they can always get better. He believes leaders should communicate well and set a good example for others. [34:27] And remember, there are certain things in which mediocrity is not to be endured, such as poetry, music, painting and public speaking. -Jean de la Bruyere   Quotable Quotes "Communication is operationalized leadership. It's how we lead, and it's critical to spend time focusing on it." "Understanding your audience is key: ensure your content is relatable and relevant to those you're addressing." "Empathy and curiosity are the antidotes to the curse of knowledge and passion. They help us appreciate where our audience is coming from." "Generational differences require a collaborative approach to communication: not just 'communicate to,' but 'communicate with.' "Structure and frameworks are vital in high-intensity conversations, providing a roadmap and helping to package up messages effectively." "Blending what helps the organization and what is true for ourselves can lead to authentic leadership." "Building a culture of feedback is crucial: be specific in your requests and demonstrate a willingness to change." "Communication is about making connections—take the time to connect meaningfully with others." "In crisis communication, proactive measures like aligning messages and practicing drills are essential for success." "Buy what you're selling. Find a connection between your message and your beliefs to communicate authentically." "Nonverbal communication is key: your body language, tone, and gestures shape how people perceive your intent and message." "Practice is crucial in communication—don't just focus on the message, but also how you deliver it." "Generational language patterns may seem annoying, but they help connect people within groups. Stay open-minded and focus on the intent." "Trust comes from connection and commonality. Slow down, listen, and give honest feedback to build strong relationships." "Effective leaders take time to understand others and build trust, which in turn accelerates progress and success." "Martial arts emphasize observation, listening, and intimacy. These skills can be applied to everyday interactions." "Communication is not just broadcasting. Listening is a crucial step in effective communication." "Pattern recognition is key to effective communication: recognize the context and expectations to respond appropriately." "Authenticity matters: forcing language that's not true to yourself can hinder connection and mutual understanding." "Spontaneous speaking is like being an athlete: rely on training and skills to navigate different situations effectively." "Reflection is critical for improvement. Practice, reflection, and feedback help you grow as a communicator." "Daily reflection can help you recognize patterns in your communication and address areas for improvement." "Seek feedback from others to understand your communication better and make meaningful changes." "Leaders should encourage communication reflection in meetings to improve quality and send a message about its importance." "Communication anxiety can be daunting, but one step at a time leads to improvement. Confidence grows with practice."   Resources Mentioned The Leadership Podcast | Sponsored by | Rafti Advisors.

Vi skal endnu engang på jagt I vores støvede arkiver, denne gang efter en ganske særlig episode. Af ikke helt tydelige årsager endte netop denne filmaften med at blive en institution i Moviebox's historie. Måske fordi den bare er så ikonisk og skarpt skåret og let at forstå. Det er dyr! De dræber! Basta. Her kan du høre vores første udflugt med dræberdyrdøden, der byder på insekter, en hund og nogle aber. Niels lægger solidt ud med den ækle 'Ticks' (1993), der er et bud på en fuldstændig klassisk dræberdyr-film. Sonny følger op med klassikeren 'Link' (1986) med Terrence Stamp og Elizabeth Shue og en vred orangutan. Og så slutter Ask af med 'White Dog' (1982), men kun for en kort stund, for lynhurtigt verfer han den nazitrænede hund af vejen for at gøre plads til... 'SHAKMAAAAAA'! Rigtig god fornøjelse med den og HUSK: Spol altid episoden tilbage, når du har lyttet færdigt! Med venlig hilsen, Ask, Sonny, Niels & Casper

My name is Jack and I'm here with my co-host social. And today we are doing a topic talk and we're talking about celebrity crushes that you had when you were a kid. OK and social, just for our audiences understanding what is a crush.00:00:22JackAgain, if you have a crush on someone.00:00:25XochitlA crush is like when you really, really like someone. Kind of like an intense infatuation.00:00:31XochitlBut it's not really based on anything real like like a real connection with that person. It's a lot of what you project on that person, and it's usually based on, like either appearance or small like personality traits that you've acquired through seeing them act or whatever, that you kind of imagined for this person.00:00:44발표자Right.00:00:50JackAnd so you you.00:00:51JackYou know, often like, like high school kids will. You'll have a crush on a girl in your class or a guy in your class, but you don't really know that person. You just. But. But it's like, almost like an intense feeling of love. Like it's not real.00:00:59발표자MHM.00:01:04JackLove. But it's just like it feels like you're you're your chest is being crushed because you're you're so you. Your feelings are so strong for this person. Like they're perfect, you know? Ohh the perfect person. But really in reality you don't know them at all. And they could be awful, you know, so.00:01:24발표자Great.00:01:25JackYeah, that's. So we have a thing called celebrity crushes because there's, you know, we're we're surrounded by celebrities all the.00:01:32JackTime and sometimes we will develop. You know that feeling of like, again, that crush feeling. It's like it's not love or it's not real love, but it's like attraction to a person who you feel like is your soul mate your perfect person, you know.00:01:47발표자Right.00:01:52JackLike Ohh that's that's my ideal, you know person.00:01:57JackAnd so when you were like young, when you're a kid who were your celebrity crushes, like who, who were you, who did you crush on when you were?00:02:10XochitlOh boy.00:02:12XochitlMy biggest one was Justin.00:02:16XochitlSure.00:02:17JackOhh, I was gonna say Justin Timberlake.00:02:20XochitlNo, I I he was too old, I think for my. Yeah, cause. Yeah, Justin Bieber was like my he was a couple years older, like few years. He's a few years older than me, I think. Yeah. And so he was a big celebrity crush of mine when I was probably like, 14 or 30 when I was 13, he was like.00:02:22JackYeah, he's like a grandfather.00:02:39Xochitl16 probably and uh.00:02:41JackCan I ask you a question? So did you have Bieber fever?00:02:42XochitlYeah.00:02:46XochitlGod. Yeah, I did. Uh, I thought it was too good to have Beaver fever, but I wasn't. And I didn't like him at the same time that every, like everyone else, already liked him. And I was, like, holding out. And then I saw this interview where he was really nice to this little girl, and it was like I thought it was so cute.00:03:04XochitlUM.00:03:06JackAnd that was before all the facial tattoos and the like neck tattoos.00:03:09XochitlYeah, it was. We went kind of crazy and, you know, had a meltdown because he was like he was transitioning from child star to adult star. And I thought he was just so cute. And I had, like, a people bought me, like gifts for my birthday. Like, they bought me both of his.00:03:12JackYeah.00:03:18발표자Yeah, yeah.00:03:27XochitlLike CD's that he had at the time, a lunch box with his face on it.00:03:32XochitlAnd I had a huge poster that my sister bought me on my bedroom wall.00:03:37JackNice.00:03:39XochitlAnd so that was a big that was like one of my first big celebrity crushes. Jack, you go with one of yours and we'll just go back and forth here. How about?00:03:49JackOK, again, my OK, I'm 47 years old, so you have to understand these all that my celebrity crushes all come from like the late 80s to early 90s. OK, when I was like 12 or 13 years old because I was born in 1977, so.00:04:07JackUh, my. My first uh, I don't know. I'm trying to think of, like, my celebrity crush.00:04:15JackI think maybe one of the one of my first ones was the actress Elizabeth Shue.00:04:22JackUM, and you probably don't know who she is, right? Elizabeth Shue was in a movie called The Karate Kid.00:04:23XochitlI.00:04:30JackAnd.00:04:31XochitlOh my God. She was Daniel's girlfriend.00:04:33JackDaniel's girlfriend. Yes, yes, I thought she was so.00:04:35XochitlI do know cause I saw that my mom made me watch. My mom's a Gen. Xer and she made us watch the karate.00:04:40XochitlKid, when we were kids, which I liked a lot, so yeah.00:04:41JackYeah, it's a classic. You gotta watch it. The Karate Kid is, uh, yeah, it's a classic movie. And Elizabeth Shue was the love interest in there. She had a Daniel had a crush on her. They she had an ex-boyfriend who was a bully.00:04:57JackAnd, UM, yeah, it was. Uh, she she was, you know, absolutely, you know, the epitome of, like, the perfect high school girlfriend, you know, bubbly, charming, cute, you know.00:05:12XochitlYou're all next door style.00:05:14JackGirl next door. Yeah, she was. She was very. She was kind, you know, she wasn't stuck up. She. Yeah. Yeah, so.00:05:22JackElizabeth Shue was was one of my first celebrity crushes.00:05:26XochitlHave you seen a Cobra Kai?00:05:28JackYeah, I've watched that. I saw a couple of seasons of that show. I enjoyed it.00:05:33XochitlYou much more because she shows back up.00:05:35XochitlAt some point.00:05:36JackYeah, she did show up in that one. Yeah. And that, you know, now she's 50, you know, something years old, 55 years old or whatever, but.00:05:47JackYeah. So you know, that was one of my celebrity crushes. I'm sure I'm, it's me and about a million other Gen. X, you know, men my age, maybe 10s of millions who would put her on the list. Yeah.

I felt like Zac Efron's eyes didn't match the rest of his face and he was orange looking and sorry that got Bron.00:06:55XochitlThose were like my observations, and I thought Corbin Blue was just the cutest, so that was.00:07:01XochitlYeah.00:07:02JackOK. OK, interesting. Alright. Alright, I'm.00:07:05XochitlI almost always like never was like a huge fan of the main character.

I think. I think that's cooler. Like lark George.00:09:11JackWhat about skylark?00:09:15XochitlI think it's like trying too hard. I think Laura Voorhees sounds like you're like a cool like in a punk rock band or so, you know, like a drunk band. You know what I mean? I like it. Yeah. Alright. My third one was when I was like a little bit older. So it's like, so I'm a little embarrassed, but I think I was like 18 or 19. So I was still a.00:09:20JackYeah. Yeah, OK. OK.

B yeah.00:10:23XochitlI don't really know rain or be that might have been like a little before my, but sawing OK will IU. I was a huge fan of them.00:10:33XochitlAnd the whole reason I really got into Korea was actually a YouTuber called Tonon Mukadam. I was looking up how.00:10:39XochitlTo.00:10:40XochitlTeach abroad in uh. Just teaching abroad in general, I think, and her channel came up about teaching abroad in Korea. And then like the benefits are so.00:10:50XochitlMuch.00:10:51XochitlBetter and easier, I feel like than a lot of other English.00:10:54XochitlYes, all countries. So that's how I.00:10:55JackYeah.

A Patreon pick from one of our listeners, the podcast takes a look at the film.Brian Lackey (Brady Corbet), a young man, remembers passing out as a child for unknown reasons. During one of his episodes he sees a shadowy figure staring down at him. When he sees a documentary about alien abductions on televisions, he goes visits a young woman his age that claims she too had been abducted. His discussions with her lead to him searching out Neil McCormick (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who appears in photographs with him as a youngster. Does Neil have an answer or is there a bigger story?The film stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Brady Corbet, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Michelle Trachtenberg, Bill Sage, and Elizabeth Shue.

Say a prayer to your saints! Which one? It doesn't matter -- Val Kilmer invokes them all! This week, the Ladies watched "The Saint," the Val Kilmer and Elizabeth Shue-fronted heist movie, featuring US-Russia relations that make it feel like no time has passed at all since the 90s! (It hasn't, because we're still VERY young, right? Right?!) We laugh about all of Val Kilmer's silly disguises and accents, ponder the similarities between this movie and "A Little Princess," and overall have a blast talking our way through this ultimately sweet-natured movie.

And to round out the season your regular hosts Scott and Craig look at 1997 spy movie flop "The Saint" alongside the £1 Movie Podcast host Wayne Saunders. Over the course of the episode our intrepid trio discover "The Saint" is way bigger franchise than they thought it was, puzzle over the curious lack of action in the film and are curious as to how the finished product is so well so-so given all the talent involved. It ain't all bad though as the trio enjoy Val's many wacky personas, Rade Šerbedžija and  Nikolaev's scenery-chewing villains and all things Elizabeth Shue.  Elsewhere, we get into the movie's ridiculous accents (most of which come from Val), silly seduction techniques and its hilarious portrayal of the British police.

“Being a multi-hyphenate is not a disability – it's an ability. It's an advantage.” Jared Grimes is a Tony Nominated actor currently starring in Funny Girl on Broadway. His effervescent energy lights up the stage every night at The August Wilson Theatre. In this episode, his energy continues into our conversation as we discuss what being a “bag of tricks” in this industry actually means.  In this episode, we discover Grimes' road to Broadway, how he turned his ADD diagnosis into multi-hyphenation, inspirations, getting people in power to understand the multi-hyphenate, and we chat about how tap opened up his eyes to the art of multi-hyphenating.  “At an early age I began to latch on to the idea that if you're a tap dancer, that means you can be many things. It doesn't mean that you just use your feet to connect with people or share with people. I'm looking at all my heroes and they are singing, they are acting, they are comedians, they're lindyhoppers, they're writers, they're choreographers, they do camerawork – they are behind the camera, in front of the camera – all those guys did that and I was just like wow so that's what it is to be a tap dancer. My earliest idea of what a tap dancer was, was a multi-hyphenate.”  Jared Grimes is a quadruple threat in the world of the arts where he is heavily making his mark in singing, dancing, acting, and choreographing. He received a Tony Nomination for his performance in Funny Girl on Broadway, which he is currently starring in. On numerous occasions, he has danced alongside legends such as Wynton Marsalis, Gregory Hines, Ben Vereen, Jerry Lewis and Fayard Nicholas. and also performed for Barack Obama and Ted Kennedy at the Kennedy Center.

Grimes has toured with Musical legend, Mariah Carey, under the choreography of Marty Kudelka, and danced for artists such as Common, Salt-n-Pepa, Envogue, Busta Rhymes and the Roots. Jared's theater credits include, After Midnight on Broadway directed by Warren Carlyle, Twist directed by Debbie Allen, Babes in Arms at the Goodspeed Opera House choreographed by Randy Skinner, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes directed by John Rando at Encores and Broadway Underground directed by himself.
