Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard's The Extraordinary Miss Flower is part-concert film, part-performance art piece inspired by the life of its subject, a woman called Geraldine Flower. When she passed away a few years ago, her daughter Zoe discovered a number of letters, written over the years by suitors of Geraldine's, which painted a picture of a wildly charismatic, enigmatic and magnetic woman. Zoe's close friend, Icelandic singer Emiliana Torrini, and Zoe's husband, the musician Simon Byrt, were inspired by the letters, and thus 2024's album, Miss Flower, was born. And, not long after that, Forsyth and Pollard's film, which combines performances from Torrini and her band, with interstitial pieces featuring a host of famous faces reading aloud the letters, and Caroline Catz as the extraordinary Geraldine Flower. And in this Empire Podcast interview special, Chris Hewitt is joined in the podbooth by Zoe Flower, the film's producer and daughter of its subject, and Catz for a frank and fascinating conversation in which the word 'extraordinary' is said quite a lot. Enjoy.

As we like to do as often as possible on Soundtracking, we are celebrating an independent film this week, as first directors Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard and then musicians Emiliana Torrini and SImon Byrt join Edith to discuss their collaboration on an esoteric gem, The Extraordinary Miss Flower. This picture is quite hard to describe, if we're honest, but was basically inspired by behind-the-scenes friend of the show, Zoe, who discovered a suitcase full of her late mother Geraldine's letters, which suggested that Geraldine had led a much more exotic and, well, extraordinary life than Zoe could have possibly imagined. This in turn inspired an album's worth of songs from Emiliana, co-written and produced by Simon, which form the backbone of this movie - directed by Iain and Jane.

Emilíana Torrini fór snemma að syngja og spinna upp sögur og segist drifin áfram af forvitni um fólk og fínni blæbrigði í lífinu. Hún ólst upp hjá iðnum foreldrum í Kópavoginum en dvaldi stóran hluta af barnæskunni hjá ömmu á Borgarfirði Eystri og frændfólki í Þýskalandi. Hún gaf út sína fyrstu sólóplötu sextán ára en síðan eru þær orðnar átta og verkefnin fjölmörg og fjölbreytt, meðal annars í samstarfi við nokkrar stórstjörnur tónlistariðnaðarins. Emilíana segir fullkomnunaráráttuna hafa minnkað með aldrinum, og að eftir fertugt hafi hún lært að njóta betur og að vera bara drullusama. Hún er nýkomin heim úr fimm vikna tónleikaferðalagi, þar sem hún fylgdi eftir nýjustu plötu sinni Miss Flower. Og hún er er gestur Svipmyndar í dag. Umsjón: Halla Harðardóttir og Melkorka Ólafsdóttir

Rarement sans doute une élection aura-t-elle été scrutée de si près par nos voisins européens. La dissolution de l'Assemblée nationale au soir des européennes a provoqué chez la plupart d'entre eux surprise et inquiétude. Les législatives vues d'ailleursEn Allemagne, c'est l'inquiétude qui domine. Les partis républicains redoutent les conséquences de la décision du président Macron sur la relation entre les deux capitales ; et ils se demandent comment répondre efficacement – et durablement à la montée de l'extrême-droite. À Berlin, Delphine Nerbollier. En Pologne, dans les rangs progressistes c'est la stupéfaction : Michal Marszal, l'ancien journaliste qui avait organisé la retransmission des débats parlementaires au cinéma après la victoire du camp libéral en témoigne. Son pays vient de tourner le dos au parti illibéral Droit et Justice, et selon lui la gestion du pouvoir par le PIS devrait servir de contre-exemple en Europe. Des propos recueillis par Adrien Sarlat.

Emiliana Torrini er gestur Rokklands í dag en hún var að senda frá sér plötu sem heitir Racing the storm með belgísku hljómsveitinni The Colorist Orchestra sem hún hefur unnið talsvert með undanfarin ár og spilað með á Íslandi t.d. Við spjöllum saman og kynnumst nýju plötunni auk þess sem við rifjum upp gamla viðtal sem Lísa Pálsdóttir tók við Emiliönu 1999. Bubbi kemur aðeins við sögu og Rúni Júl, en nú er búið að sýna söngleikinn um Bubba - 9 líf í 3 ár. Við rifjum við uppviðtal við Bubba frá því fyrir daga Rásar 2 ? frá 1982 og líka heimsókn GCD í Std. 12 árið 1993 þegar Eva Ásrún Albertsdóttir tók á móti Bubba og Rúnari, Begga og Gulla Briem. Og nýja U2 platan sem kom út á föstudaginn kemur aðeins við sögu, platan Songs of surrender sem hefur að geyma 40 áður útgefin U2 lög í nöktum kammerútsetningum c.a.

Belgian duo The Colorist Orchestra and Icelandic-Italian singer-songwriter Emiliana Torrini recorded their album between many brewing storms deep in the Icelandic countryside. It was such an emblematic prelude of life-affirming chaos that they named their album Racing The Storm. While we wait for the album to drop tomorrow, let's check out “Hilton.”

Jared, Oriana and Ned continue our own epic trilogy with a look at our collective choice of topic: Peter Jackson's version of The Two Towers. Turning 20 years old this month, The Two Towers built on the success of the previous year's The Fellowship of the Ring, becoming another holiday blockbuster and continuing the overall story, as well as introducing the wider world to a variety of striking performances, among them Bernard Hill as Theoden, Miranda Otto as Eowyn and most famously and indelibly, Andy Serkis's compelling performance as Gollum, further interpreted by the Weta digital effects team to bring the character to life as an animation. All three of us have our own distinct memories and experiences of watching it for the first time and we've seen it any number of times since, but returning to it as a standalone film – as with our previous Fellowship episode, we went back to the original theatrical cut – made something clear to us: it's not all that great. Many different moments are absolutely indelible as already noted and there's no way something like The Rings of Power can even come close to it, but compared to the absolute triumph of Jackson's Fellowship, his Two Towers is the odd one out of the series as a whole. What about the structure of the story as adapted, filmed and edited meant that this might have always been the weak center of the sequence? What moments in particular are absolutely perfect – and what decisions are baffling then and now? Exactly how much Helm's Deep did there have to be in the first place – and do all the decisions that go into the making of that sequence as being central rest on the best foundation? And how great does Serkis's performance and the realization of Gollum as a character remain overall? (Answer: utterly.)SHOW NOTES.Jared's doodle. If that seems familiar, look back a year…Follow the HarperCollins Union Twitter feed for strike news.Andy Serkis reading the Silmarillion? We are intrigued, we are. Hail and farewell to Jules Bass.We do recommend relistening to our Fellowship episode; plenty of relevant show notes too.The Frodo Franchise is a very good read for sure.The original teaser trailer attached to the end of The Fellowship of the Ring at the conclusion of that film's theatrical run.The first official trailer is good, no question, but the second one with the Requiem for a Dream music? Man oh man. Kazaa! Ah Internet nostalgia. Phew, that opening scene. What a way to start up again.We do miss the Huorns, even if they showed up a little bit in the extended version – but not by name.It's a mix of perfect moments and ‘hmmm' bits but the whole start to the Helm's Deep battle definitely is key to the film.Arwen was indeed filmed at being at Helm's Deep and there are background images of her here and there. (Lindsay Ellis's essay the other month has a bit more about that.)Zulu, the British film from 1964 that inspired Jackson's take on Helm's Deep, is…a caution. (As stated, Zulu Dawn is more interesting in comparison.)The look on Theoden's face after he takes in the explosion – that's good acting.Edoras, an absolute triumph of set design, construction, visual effects and cinematography – so it was, so it remains. (Here's a visit to the set area on Mt. Sunday from a couple of years ago.)Feel free to pick up a copy of The Deadwood Bible by Matt Zoller Seitz if you like, and appreciate Oriana's work helping make it happen!Brad Dourif's tear (and the scene overall). Wormtongue's confrontation scene with Eowyn is in the Edoras clip linked above.The Eowyn/Aragorn blade clash/confrontation scene? Good, good stuff. (The warg attack scene, less so.)Where to begin with Gollum? Frustratingly the extended Two Towers documentary segment on Gollum doesn't appear to be on YouTube but Serkis's book on working on the character is easily available and a very good read.Do you really want to know about the monkey from the 1997 Lost in Space? Do you? Fine. Enjoy a video tribute. Now Gollum does act like a cat here, true. And the ‘yeees?!?' moment remains awesome.The self-confrontation scene. You know it.“PO-TA-TOES.”The buildup to Gollum snarling “My PRECIOUS!” at Faramir is truly striking.David Wenham dealing with Van Helsing. The film that is. (And yeah yeah 300.)Gandalf returns and Ian McKellen's hair levels up.The whole “give up the weapons/wink/'I TOLD you to take the WIZARD'S STAFF'” sequence – just a treat.The meat was always on the menu, really.“The Riders of Rohan” is one of Howard Shore's most gripping pieces, still.“Gollum's Song” is really good if you haven't heard it in a bit. (Emiliana Torrini's website will be back soon, it seems.)Sheila Chandra = next level. As is “Breath of Life.”Isabel Bayrakdarian = also next level, and so is “Evenstar.”“The Last March of the Ents” is another remarkable moment of music. “Release the RIVER!”Support By-The-Bywater and our network, Megaphonic, on Patreon and you can hang out with us on a friendly Discord!
