Podcast appearances and mentions of Elizabeth Taylor

Marie Antoinette Month continues with a discussion of Marie Antoinette's bestie, Gabrielle de Polastron, Duchess of Polignac. The Elizabeth Taylor of her era (looks-wise, not multiple husbands-wise), Gabby brought joie de vivre and fun to Marie Antoinette's Queen Era. But did Gabby survive the Reign of Terror?? Returning guest Amanda Matta (The Art of History podcast) joins us to explain the Versailles of it all.

Richard Burton was a global icon best remembered for his memorable film roles and his passionate - and drama-filled - romance with Elizabeth Taylor, but a new release reveals where it all began. The new biopic Mr Burton will be out in theatres next week and it tells the story of Richard Burton's tumultuous early life - and the school teacher who helped propel him to global stardom. Kate Burton, daughter of Richard Burton and actress in her own right, says many didn't know about her father's early life beyond being born in Wales. "I think it's an amazing achievement - I think they tell the story of my father beautifully, I think a lot of people don't realise where my father came from. The know that he came from Wales, but they didn't know how poverty-stricken his life was as a young person." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As promised like three episodes ago, horse enthusiast and dog groomer extraordinaire Sage Porter joins us to talk HORSE MOVIES in our ANIMAL HUSBANDRY episode. First we go very unstoney with Elizabeth Taylor in NATIONAL VELVET (1944), the ultimate girl and her horse movie, which is a genre unto itself according to Sage, and we're not going to doubt him? Sage, Philena, Bob and Cory ask the probing questions here, like what's up with the kid with the bug necklace? Also, be sure you listen to the dramatic recreation of young Liz Taylor's audition for the role that made her a star. Then we go to the 80s for HOT TO TROT (1988) because YOU, THE PEOPLE DEMANDED IT! Or at least friend-of-the-show Audra Wolfman and absentee cohost Greg Franklin demanded it, which is like a deluge of public opinion for this podcast. Bobcat Goldthwait plays an inept stockbroker who gets investment advice from a horse voiced by John Candy, in what may be their worst movie. Cory stands by this one tho while Bob and Philena are in rare agreement. Dabney Coleman and Virginia Madsen are also risked their careers tho it didn't seem to hurt them. We also talk about the AI fuckery of THE WIZARD OF OZ at The Sphere in Vegas, and the opportunity to mix horseback riding and classic film screenings at the Lone Pine Film Fest + Cory and Bob weigh in on the new NAKED GUN movie. If you need dog grooming, make sure you ask for SAGE PORTER at the Petsmart in Van Nuys. We'll have him back for a dog episode soon. We are looking at finally giving Greg his Woke Trash episode to get him back on the show but we're still programming it. Subscribe so you don't miss it! Big thanks to Odie Henderson for sending me his Boston Globe oped on WIZARD OF OZ at The Sphere, even though I didn't have the chance to read from it. --Bob Hosts: Bob Calhoun, Philena Franklin, and Cory Sklar.

Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton's love affair becomes a tabloid sensation.  Richard drinks and Elizabeth cries, they fight and make up, all while trying to keep the affair from their spouses and the public. When the press infiltrates the set and reports on every ugly development, Joe struggles to hold the production together. But as the budget balloons, Joe starts taking the blame for everything that's gone wrong. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We speak with best-selling author J. Randy Taraborelli about his most recent book- "JFK- Public, Private, Secret." It is, in many ways, the culmination of several decades of research that he has done into the Kennedy family in the course of writing half a dozen books about the Kennedys. His previous book, crafted in a very similar fashion, is titled "Jackie- Public, Private, Secret." Taraborelli has also written best-selling biographies of Frank Sinatra, Princess Grace, Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Jackson, and - perhaps most famously- Diana Ross with the book "Call Her Miss Ross."

Joe Mankiewicz decides to recast two leading men and hires Richard Burton and Rex Harrison – major talents who turn out to be major headaches. He also moves filming to a new country, where the budget spirals out of control. Joe works against the clock to meet the studio's deadline to start shooting, and he nearly pulls it off… until Richard Burton puts the moves on his married co-star Elizabeth Taylor, throwing the entire production into chaos.

Get ready for your new summer obsession! We're sharing a special preview of Cleopatra, the new season of Ben Mankiewicz's other podcast, The Plot Thickens. (Yes, he has two.) Cleopatra was the most tumultuous production in Hollywood history, a disaster of epic proportions written and directed by Ben's Oscar-winning uncle, Joseph L. Mankiewicz. With Mankiewicz calling the shots and with the luminous Elizabeth Taylor in the title role, Cleopatra should have been a smash. Instead, it was a shoot plagued by medical emergencies, climate disasters, nervous breakdowns, and egos as big as pyramids... not to mention Taylor's scandalous affair with co-star Richard Burton. Enjoy the first episode of Cleopatra right now, then look up The Plot Thickens for more episodes, wherever you get podcast Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton gave us the term “paparazzi.” JLo and Ben Affleck gave us combined couple names like ‘Bennifer.' And thanks to Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow, we will always have “consciously uncoupling.” Way back in episode 11, Kell covered Gwyneth Paltrow and her long-forgotten fiancé, Brad Pitt. Now over 100 episodes later, we're back to revisit the romance between the actress-turned-Goop CEO and Coldplay's frontman, Chris Martin. Chris met Gwyneth at a very tender time in Gwyneth's life – just a few weeks after her father's death. Chris was there for her during her darkest hours, and famously wrote “Fix You” for her as she grieved. This week, Chris & Gwyneth inspire us to talk about dating while grieving, the myth of “mutual” breakups, and whether or not your ex can feel like a sibling?  P.S. This was recorded weeks before the “Coldplay concert couple” that's been in the news. It's just a bizarre coincidence!! About Significant LoversSignificant Lovers is a true-love podcast exploring couples throughout history and pop culture, hosted by cousins Kelly, Melissa, and Kaitlyn.

Author and sports columnist Dave Zirin of The Nation joins us to delve into the Muhammad Ali psychedelia of A.K.A. CASSIUS CLAY (1970), possibly the trippiest sports documentary ever conceived. In this amazing conversation, Dave explains how Ali linked the civil rights movement to growing antiwar protests as well as giving us the lowdown on director Jimmy Jacobs and narrator Richard Kiley, a Broadway legend who looks like a handsy college professor here. Cory and Bob talk about the movie's funkified jazz score by Teo Macro, who scored this movie the same year he produced Miles Davis' fusion opus BITCHES BREW! And Dave sticks around long enough to tell us about the time that George Foreman (RIP) sang Bob Dylan to him. You'll never guess which song Big George sang, so you'll have to listen. Bob and Cory also talk a little bit about the new SUPERMAN movie and speculate if David Zaslav is the greatest studio chief of all time with Super and SINNERS coming out during his watch. We promised Dave Zirin talking Ali and Foreman back in PhilenApocalypse III and gave you THE BIRDS instead. And in THE BIRDS ep, we promised horse movies with Philena's partner Sage and you finally got Zirin and Ali. So the next episode will be Sage joining us for horse movies, but there's yet another programming change. Instead of Smoky and Francis the Talking Mule, you'll get HOT TO TROT (1988) with the great Bobcat Goldthwait plus Elizabeth Taylor in NATIONAL VELVET (1944), which Cory says is the least stony movie of all time but Bob promises is kinda pervy in a disturbing way, so there's that.

20th Century Fox pays Elizabeth Taylor a record-breaking salary to play Cleopatra, then tries to save money by filming the movie in England. That turns out to be a disastrous decision. The weather doesn't agree with Liz, who suffers one health problem after another, delaying production for months. Fox then faces the question: pull the plug on this movie... or fire the director and find someone new to save the picture? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Empezaremos el programa comentando la actualidad. El primer tema será la creación de un nuevo partido político en Estados Unidos. ¿Qué les ofrecerá a los votantes? ¿Tiene posibilidades de competir con el partido republicano y con el demócrata? La segunda discusión trata sobre una investigación a una iglesia ortodoxa rusa en Suecia, por posibles conexiones con operaciones de los servicios de inteligencia rusos y tácticas de guerra híbrida. Después, dejaremos los sucesos internacionales y pasaremos a hablar de ciencia. Discutiremos un libro publicado recientemente que llama la atención sobre el hecho de que la evolución no puede explicar la existencia de determinadas partes del cuerpo humano. Y, para acabar, hablaremos del famoso concurso de comer perritos calientes que siempre se celebra el Día de la Independencia de EE. UU. El resto del episodio de hoy lo dedicaremos a la lengua y la cultura españolas. La primera conversación incluirá ejemplos del tema de gramática de la semana, The Indirect Object - Part I. En esta conversación contaremos la historia de la Hispano-Suiza, una marca de coches fundada en 1904 en Barcelona. La marca fabricaba coches de lujo, y fueron muy populares en la belle époque. Y, en nuestra última conversación, aprenderemos a usar una nueva expresión española, lo que no se comen los ratones, sale por los rincones. Con ella, conoceremos la leyenda de la Perla Peregrina. Esta perla es única, pues su tamaño y forma son inusuales. La encontró un esclavo en Panamá en 1579 y fue a parar a la corte española. Desde entonces ha tenido varios propietarios, incluida la famosa actriz norteamericana, Elizabeth Taylor. Elon Musk asegura que está creando un partido político en EE.

Estamos en una época en la que las estrellas viven continuamente pretendiendo ganarse el perdón de los verdugos de las redes por si son de los primeros de la élite en caer si hay una revolución la semana que viene. Hace sesenta años el mundo también estaba al borde de la implosión. La crisis social, los movimientos en defensa de los derechos civiles y la revolución cultural trataron de derribar los cimientos para construir algo nuevo que nunca llegó del todo. En aquel momento hubo una pareja que supuso una revolución a nivel sociocultural, estableciendo una nueva era en torno al mundo de las celebridades. Fue la formada por Elizabeth Taylor y Richard Burton quienes lograron poner de acuerdo a conservadores y revolucionarios, ambos grupos dominados por la moral más estricta, que condenaron a una pareja que hizo del exceso su seña de identidad. Este reportaje pertenece al programa "El Cine de LoQueYoTeDiga" nº 438 (15x23) y fue emitido el 15 de junio de 2024.

Thanks for being here.00:05.81AlanThank you, Donna. Thank you for asking me.00:08.02Donna BishopAnd look at you in your beautiful atelier. I know we'll get into, you know, kind of your your work and all sorts of things about crystals and costume jewelry, but I love that you're in your workspace.00:20.06Donna BishopIt's so nice to get peek behind the curtain that way.00:21.36AlanI am. I'm actually in the workroom. The atelier, of course, is in this historic mansion on Jarvis Street in Toronto. And we we like to say it's one of the last Gilded Age mansions.00:33.61AlanThere's just this little stretch between Carleton and Isabella where we've they've saved these beautiful Victorian buildings.00:34.83Donna BishopThank you.00:40.33AlanSo we've been here now. It's weird to say we've been in this space over two years and we just signed the new four-year lease, which is kind of exciting. And we're going to be expanding. We're actually renovating this summer to make the showroom bigger.00:53.43AlanBut the workspace is, this would have been one of the principal bedrooms in this beautiful house. This house is This half is 1891. The showroom half is 1897. It was built for Edward Blake, who was one of the first premiers of Ontario.01:09.10AlanAnd it's Elliot Knox, one of the foremost Victorian architects in Toronto. And 1900, Jarvis Street was the most fashionable address in Canada, which is really funny to think. Like this was the Gilded Age show. This was the Gilded Age.01:28.93AlanAnd then the history of this building is so intense because not only do I work in this room and I pulled the blinds down cause it's so sunny out.

His studio was collapsing. His budget was skyrocketing. And his two stars were making headlines for all the wrong reasons. Those were just some of the headaches facing Joseph L. Mankiewicz, the director of one of the most expensive and infamous movies ever made: Cleopatra. With Mankiewicz calling the shots and the luminous Elizabeth Taylor in the title role, Cleopatra should have been a smash. Instead, it was a shoot plagued by medical emergencies, climate disasters and nervous breakdowns… not to mention Taylor's scandalous love affair with Richard Burton. This season, Ben Mankiewicz digs through his own family stories to understand how it turned out so badly for his Oscar-winning uncle. Cleopatra, a six-episode limited series, begins July 17.

In this episode we cover Hollywood star and icon, Elizabeth Taylor. We take you through her film career, her many marriages, her advocacy work, and more. In the process we also discuss the way Hollywood, the media, and the public perceived her relationships (because clearly that was their biggest concern) and her self-advocacy. Then we dig into some of the labels the world assigned her and break down where they came from and how valid they are or not. We wrap up the episode speaking about Taylor's legacy, specifically as it relates to her support of those who have suffered from the AIDS epidemic.

In this episode of Crime Time Inc., host Alex delves into the Charles Manson trial, focusing on the 1969 threats and confessions within the Manson Family, particularly Susan Atkins. Key revelations include planned high-profile murders, such as Elizabeth Taylor and Frank Sinatra, and the shocking manipulation of evidence and witness testimonies in the courtroom. The defense's unexpected decision to rest without cross-examining witnesses shifts the trial's dynamics. The episode also features discussions by crime experts Simon and Tom Wood, who analyze the psychological and procedural aspects of the case.00:00 Introduction to Episode 24: The Manson Family Murders00:36 Virginia Graham's Shocking Revelation01:30 The Celebrity Death List04:50 Prosecutor's Dilemma and Legal Battles06:25 Witness Testimonies and Defense Strategies17:09 Manson's Manipulative Conversations24:23 The Defense Rests: A Legal Gamble28:54 Expert Analysis and Reflections29:09 The Defense Rests: A Legal Gamble29:55 The Shockwave in the Courtroom30:47 Analyzing the Defense's Strategy31:37 The Turning Point in the Manson Trial31:59 The Jury's Role and Final Deliberations32:54 Reflecting on the Manson Family's Targets33:49 The Manson Family's Delusional Plans35:29 Manson's God Complex and Courtroom Behavior40:29 The Circus of the Manson Trial43:12 The Importance of the Manson Trial43:49 Will Manson Testify?45:01 Wrapping Up the SeriesTom Wood is a former murder squad detective and Deputy Chief Constable of Lothian and Borders Police in Scotland.

Scott Kiner is the son of Pittsburgh Pirates Hall of Famer & New York Mets broadcast legend Ralph Kiner.    That would be impressive enough by itself, but speaking of good sports genes, his mother was the National Tennis Champion Nancy Chafee. Scott's fascinating book One of a Kiner, is a personal memoir of an iconic Sports and Broadcasting family. From 1946 to 1955, Ralph Kiner was baseball's home run king, having led or tied for the National League Home Run crown 7 years in a row! A celebrated athlete and America's most eligible bachelor, he dated Hollywood stars like Elizabeth Taylor and Janet Leigh (Psycho) and captured many headlines. At the same time, Nancy Chaffee was the glamour girl of tennis, competing on center court at Wimbledon and gracing magazine covers worldwide. When they married in 1951, their love story captivated the nation. In this exclusive interview with author Scott Kiner, we learn: -What made him choose this specific book title -That's quite a heritage you -Father a baseball legend, and mom won 11 national tennis titles, when in life did Scott realize that his parents were special - When growing up did Scott's friends treat him differently because he had famous parents - In the year it took to write this book, what did Scott learn about his father that he didn't know before he wrote it? - What was dating Elizabeth Taylor and Janet Leigh like for his father.   • How did his parents meet? -Ralph was part of the original broadcasting team for the NY Mets when they started in 1962…he was just 7-years-old…what was that like? -Why Ralph Kiner did not win MVP Awards despite a strong case for them -Ralph's home run record which will probably never be broken • Scott's career in broadcasting •How Ralph gave Jimmy Kimmel and Carson Daly a leg-up in the broadcasting business and how he hired a young Jimmy Kimmel… What are the things he wants readers of One of a Kiner to take away from the book?

A CLASSIC ROCKER FINDS OUT HE HAS A LOVE CHILD FROM THE 80's, some insane Movies announced and A wild list of celebrities and how they caught their significant others cheating… it's like celebs are just like us guys!CRAP ON FRIDAY Rick Moranis has been gone way too long. Even those new "Ghostbusters" movies didn't lure him back to Hollywood. But I am quite excited to announce that he WILL return to once again play Dark Helmet in "Spaceballs 2"!!! Bill Pullman will return as the hero Lone Starr, too. And Mel Brooks will be back as Yogurt . . . and, presumably . . . President Skroob. (He played both characters in the original.) Josh Gad co-wrote the script, and he's expected to be in it, too. Pullman's son Lewis Pullman has also been cast, along with Keke Palmer . . . but there's no word who they're playing. There's also no word on any other returning cast members. Obviously, John Candy, Joan Rivers, and Dick Van Patten won't be back, since they're no longer with us. Mel released the first teaser yesterday. There's no footage, since filming hasn't begun yet. It starts with a text crawl that makes fun of all the "Star Wars" prequels, sequels, sequels to the prequels, prequels to the sequels, and TV spin-offs. Then it lists all the "Dune", "Jurassic Park", "Avatar", and Marvel movies, plus DC's TWO attempts to start a cinematic universe . . . and just about every other overdone franchise you can name. Then, after a quick appearance from Mel, we get a shot of Rick Moranis' cracked helmet, and the tagline: "The Schwartz Awakens in 2027." Which sounds like a possible title but it's spaceballs and mel brooks so it could be anything. Here is Mel making his announcement. Jerry Seinfeld Proposes ‘Live-Action Sequel' to 'Bee Movie'Jerry Seinfeld has people buzzin' with this idea!The comedic genius posted about the possibility of a “live-action sequel” to his 2007 animated hit Bee Movie.“Bee Movie, which came out nearly 20 years ago, is #4 on Netflix,” he wrote on Instagram showing a hand holding a tennis ball with a honey bee on it. The next slide was the movie's poster, an image of Seinfeld's character Barry B. Benson similarly straddling a tennis ball.“Today, my friend Spike Feresten, one of the writers on the film, was playing tennis and this happened."He continued, “Clearly a sign. Time for a live-action sequel..?" DreamWorks' Bee Movie, which Seinfeld produced, co-wrote, and starred in along with Renée Zellweger, has become a cult favorite since its release.Bee Movie also featured the voices of Matthew Broderick, John Goodman, Chris Rock, Kathy Bates, Megan Mullally, Oprah Winfrey, and several celebrities appearing as animated versions of themselves, including Larry King, Ray Liotta, and Sting.Saint Louis' own Nelly and Ashanti are putting their lives on TV for all to see. They announced an upcoming reality show called Nelly & Ashanti: We Belong Together.A show synopsis says Nelly and Ashanti "rekindle their love, navigate the ups and downs of being newlyweds and new parents, and juggle their careers."The eight-episode series will air on Peacock starting June 26th.A DNA Test Connects Billy Idol To A Son He Didn't Know He HadDetails on the lovechild Billy Idol didn't know he had until a few years ago have surfaced.Idol's daughter, Bonnie, shared in the new doc, 'Billy Idol Should Be Dead', "My husband just surprised me with a DNA test as a Christmas present [a few years ago]. Then a few weeks later, I get the results back on the app and open it and I'm like, who is this? This Brant. His info reads, 'New York, 1985, looking for my biological dad.' I was like, ‘What?'"Brant, Idol's lovechild, grew up believing his dad was someone else until a different DNA questioned his mother's claims about his father. After confronting his mom, she told Brant, "Well, it's pretty crazy, but back in the day, we broke up and I actually spent a weekend with Billy Idol."Fans have done the math and calculate that Brant was conceived during Idol's wildly successful 1984 'Rebel Yell' tour.Idol has whole-heartedly accepted Brant as family, saying, "I really enjoyed being a dad. I always wanted a boy and a girl, and I finagled my way into a boy and a girl. I actually had a son that I didn't realize, who I fathered on the Rebel Yell tour without knowing it. So I somehow finagled this as well."Brant was at Idol's Walk of Fame ceremony back in 2023.Prime Video Will Soon Show Double The AdsAmazon Prime Video is about to double the number of commercials shown per hour on its ad-supported membership level. An Adweek report got the news from an Amazon spokesperson about the amount of commercials going to "four to six minutes per hour" from the two to three minutes that Prime users are used to. In 2024, subscribers who had ad-free access were forced to pay an extra $3 a month to maintain the status. Jay-Z Loses $1 Million NBA Finals Bet Jay-Z is out $1 million after losing a bet on the NBA Finals. Jay placed a bet prior to the series, banking on the Oklahoma City Thunder to win the championship in five games. After Wednesday night's Thunder loss to the Indiana Pacers, OKC can't win the series unless they do it in six or seven games. Jay-Z would have won $3.5 million if the bet had cashed in. With a net worth of $2.5 billion, we're sure Jay-Z will be alright. Ok you guys remember Spinal Tap? The Album cover debate with the label and why it became an all black cover or as Nigel would say NONE MORE BLACK? It was because the original had a woman on all fours with a dog leash on and it was deemed sexist…. To which Nigel replies “Whats wrong with being sexy? Well get this, Sabrina Carpenter announced her new album yesterday, and it's causing a lot of controversy. It's called "Man's Best Friend", and the cover has Sabrina on all fours, in front of a man who's pulling a handful of her hair. A women's advocacy group in Scotland called it "regressive", saying it reduces women to, quote, "pets, props, and possessions," and promotes "an element of violence and control." Sabrina's fans are defending it as SATIRE, and a commentary on how badly women are treated. And some are pointing out that the first single, "Manchild", actually makes FUN of men. HERE IS A CLIP OF THATMeanwhile, in the new "Rolling Stone" cover story, Sabrina talks about being criticized for the sexual imagery in her stage show. She says, quote "It's always so funny to me when people complain. They're like, 'All she does is sing about this.' But those are the songs that you've made popular. Clearly you love sex. You're obsessed with it." She adds, quote, "I truly feel like I've never lived in a time where women have been picked apart more, and scrutinized in every capacity. I'm not just talking about me. I'm talking about every female artist that is making art right now." Pope Leo isn't even the most famous guy in his family. The "New York Times" researched his family tree, and found out that he's related to a bunch of celebrities. The link is an ancestor from about six generations back. He name was Louis Boucher de Grandpre, and he was born in Quebec.And because of him, Leo is distant cousins with Justin Bieber, Justin Trudeau, Angelina Jolie, Hillary Clinton, Jack Kerouac, and Madonna. It's interesting that Leo would be related to Madonna, given that the Catholic Church has condemned her several times . . . most famously when she released her "Like a Prayer" video in 1989. A few years ago, Madonna reached out to Pope Francis, asking to meet with him to discuss "important matters." She told him, quote, "I've been ex-communicated 3 times. It doesn't seem fair." If you've ever wondered how the creators of "Friends" came up with the character of Joey Tribbiani . . . we might just have the answer this morning. Joey Lawrence claims Matt LeBlanc's character was based on HIS character Joey Russo from "Blossom". Lawrence says, quote, "Joey Russo was so successful that when they were creating 'Friends', they wanted a 25-year-old version of that." Supposedly, Matt's character wasn't even originally called Joey, but they changed it because the "Blossom" character was so successful. Joey even claims that Matt was sent to tapings of "Blossom" where he would, quote, "sit up in the audience with a yellow notepad and take notes on how I portrayed Joey Russo." He says they wanted Matt to bring the "innocence" of Joey Russo to Joey Tribbiani, so the character could, quote, "get away with his womanizing." I guess the Grammys were sick of hearing about whether Beyoncé deserved to win Best Country Album for "Cowboy Carter". So, they just announced a major change. For next year's Grammys, the award formally known as Best Country Album will now be called Best Contemporary Country Album . . . and they will also be adding a new category: Best Traditional Country Album. There's a lot to unpack here. And one year after Beyoncé wins makes the timing of this all the more clickbait-y. According to the Grammy website, "traditional country music", quote, "adheres to the more traditional sound structures of the country genre, including rhythm and singing style, lyrical content, as well as traditional country instrumentation such as acoustic guitar, steel guitar, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, piano, and live drums." Where "contemporary country music", quote, "remains reminiscent and relevant to the legacy of country music's culture, while also engaging in more contemporary music forms." Someone tweeted, "Morgan Wallen and Post Malone better not be in the traditional country category at the Grammys, because in what world are they traditional country?" Wait, hold up. When Morgan collaborated with Alvin and the Chipmunks, that wasn't traditional country??New in Theaters: "How to Train Your Dragon", "Materialists", and "The Life of Chuck" There's nothing like a good breakup story. Here are seven times a celebrity found out their partner was cheating in an unconventional way: 1. Demi Moore learned that Ashton Kutcher was having an affair in 2011, from a Google Alert. When she called him on it, he admitted it right away. Her response was, quote, "Are you [effing] kidding me?" 2. Britney Spears started dating lawyer David Lucado in 2012. But in 2014, her father found out there was paparazzi footage of David kissing another woman. He bought it to prevent it from being released, and Britney broke it off. 3. Kourtney Kardashian dumped Scott Disick in 2008, after finding texts on his phone from a contact called, quote, "my wife." They did the on-and-off thing until 2015, when photos emerged of Scott with another woman in France. 4. Elizabeth Hurley found out Hugh Grant was cheating on her in 1995, when he got arrested for GETTING IT ON with Sunset Boulevard prostitute Divine Brown in his car. They didn't break up until 2000, and they're still friends. 5. Laura Dern found out Billy Bob Thornton was being unfaithful when the news broke that he had ELOPED with Angelina Jolie in 2000. She was away making a movie, and she never saw it coming. 6. Eva Longoria's marriage to NBA star Tony Parker ended in 2010, after she found inappropriate texts with another woman on his phone. 7. This one's ancient history, but it was a HUGE tabloid story back in the day: In 1958, actress Debbie Reynolds was missing her husband, Eddie Fisher, because he was supposedly away on tour. So she decided to give her friend Elizabeth Taylor a call . . . and who answered Liz's phone? Eddie FREAKIN' Fisher. (!!!) Eddie left Debbie and married Liz, but that only lasted five years.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Los estrenos de hoy tienen grandes personajes. Historias de superación o contradicciones. La primera nos lleva a Gales, a los años 40, donde un joven Richard Jenkins, el hijo de un minero alcohólico, deseará ser actor y con la ayuda de su profesor de literatura y teatro terminará siendo Richard Burton, un icono de Hollywood. De él conocemos sus películas, su carácter airado, sus problemas con la bebida y su matrimonio (dos veces) con Elizabeth Taylor. Pero con esta película, "Mr Burton" sabremos de dónde sale, cómo comenzó su historia. La segunda película, "Baltimore", es la historia real de Rose Dugdale, una aristócrata inglesa, heredera de una fortuna, que se alistó en la organización después del llamado Domingo Sangriento, la masacre de enero de 1972.

On episode 289 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade is joined by Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson, Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello, AwardsWatch contributor Mark Johnson, and special guest Kevin Jacobsen, Entertainment Weekly Content Update Editor and host of the And the Runner Up Is podcast. Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night. While everyone is settling into the summer blockbuster season and recovering from the Cannes Film Festival from the month of May, the AW team turn to the month of June by going back to a favorite exercise from last year, an extensive tier ranking of an Oscar category. After doing Best Director last year, the team moves the most popular category the Oscars has for the team; Best Actress and its 98 winners. In trying to place these winners in the correct spot, the team had to come together and decide on whether to place these performances in the S (all-time winner), A, B, C, D, or F tier and explain the ranking. Only 49 of the winners are discussed on this episode, including Vivien Leigh in Gone with the Wind, Liza Minnelli in Cabaret, Jessica Chastain in The Eyes of Tammy Faye, Judy Holliday in Born Yesterday, Elizabeth Taylor in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Marion Cotillard in La Vie en Rose, Loretta Young in The Farmer's Daughter and Sally Field in Norma Rae, with the rest covered next week. For the first time in the tier ranking episodes, the performances have been randomized, making the show even more unpredictable as to who will be covered from the list of winners on this episode. Also, the team has instituted two rules that include only 15 winners being able to be in the “S tier” and if an actress has multiple wins, only one of their wins can make it into the 15. It adds a fun wrinkle for the team to try and figure out when they get to their final rankings. It may only be part one, but it's a great episode and we hope you all enjoy it and listen next week to part two. You can listen to The AwardsWatch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. This podcast runs 3h58m. We will be back in next week for part 2 of our Best Actress tier ranking episode. Till then, let's get into it.

Book Vs. Movie: The Mirror Crack'dThe 1962 Agatha Christie Novel  Vs the 1980 MovieWhen Agatha Christie published The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side in 1962, it was a haunting tale of guilt, glamour, and murder set in the seemingly quiet village of St. Mary Mead.

On Mission: Impossible weekend, it seemed right for Have You Ever Seen to feature a flick all about an impossible mission to climb a cliff, get inside a Greek island fortress and blow up some enormous German blasters. Our 667th episode talks about that trek, but also about revenge and wartime honour. Gregory Peck, Anthony Quinn and David Niven lead a fine cast in The Guns Of Navarone, as they and their team try to save the lives of 2000 men. The actors are skillfully guided with tension and even humour by J. Lee Thompson, who was on the roll of his life directing Cape Fear the year after he made this Oscar-winning WWII film. So to celebrate America's Memorial Day, enjoy Ryan's monologue about The Magnificent Six killing a whole whack of Nazis. Well, Actually: at the 38:30 mark, "then became a Russian citizen" should have been "then became a BRITISH citizen". Also, David Niven was one of the Oscar hosts in 1974 when he was onstage during the streaker's appearance (Elizabeth Taylor actually presented Best Picture).

In the 1960s, Natalie Wood was one of the world's leading actress, her star shining as bright as Elizabeth Taylor's. She'd been acting since she was a small child, appearing in movies like Miracle on 34th Street. She'd starred opposite James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause, and she'd been linked romantically to Warren Beatty, Michael Caine, Elvis Presley, and Dennis Hopper. And her husband, actor Robert Wagner, may have gotten away with killing her off of Catalina Island in 1981, during a weekend getaway the couple shared with none other than Christoper Walken. For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com

It's Miriam Shor, y'all! You Might Know Her From Younger, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Magic Hour, GCB, Shortbus, Swingtown, Maestro, American Fiction, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3. Miriam gave us all the scoop on grounding the zaniness of Diana Trout on Darren Star's Younger, leading the indie comedy Magic Hour, and appearing in "brilliant but canceled" series like GCB and Swingtown. All that, plus Miriam talked to us about being one of John Cameron Mitchell's "players," appearing in Shortbus and, of course, originating the role of Yitzhak in the Hedwig universe; popping up in prestige Oscar films; her musical theatre roots; New York City history; and dying by way of a paintbrush in The Americans. We just LOVED Miriam.

As a cameraman during World War II, George Stevens shot footage of the liberation of Dachau that showed the world the horrors of the Holocaust – and scarred Stevens himself for life. Pre-war, he had been a director of frothy comedies; post-war, he committed himself to making epic films about “moral disasters.” This yielded a number of masterpieces – A Place in the Sun, Giant, Shane – but by the mid-60s, though more in demand than ever as a director, Stevens felt he lost touch with the audience. He only released one film in the 1960s, The Greatest Story Ever Told – an epic about Jesus, and an epic flop – and then, in an attempt to come full circle to his comedy roots, concluded his career with The Only Game in Town (1970), an awkward mashup of old and new featuring the two biggest transitional stars of the day, Warren Beatty and Elizabeth Taylor.

This episode was originally released on October 28, 2014. Listen to help prep for the next episode of our new season, The Old Man is Still Alive. Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift were best friends and co-stars in three films. The first, A Place in the Sun, is an undisputed classic which captures both stars at the peak of their talents and physical beauty. The shoot of the second, Raintree County, was interrupted by a horrible car accident in which Clift's face was disfigured. This episode tracks Taylor's relationship with the troubled Clift, from their first, studio-setup date through his untimely death — the result of what some have called “Hollywood's slowest suicide.” To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
