In this episode of The Rewatch Party, Nick, Anthony, and Dan dive into Love & Mercy, the 2014 biopic about Beach Boys legend Brian Wilson. Unlike traditional musician biopics, this film takes a unique approach, following Wilson during two pivotal periods of his life—played by Paul Dano in the 1960s and John Cusack in the 1980s. The hosts discuss how this split timeline storytelling affects the film's emotional impact and whether it enhances or distracts from the narrative. Anthony, a fan of music history, praises the film's deep dive into Wilson's genius and struggles, while Nick and Dan debate whether the dual performances truly capture the essence of the troubled artist. The conversation naturally shifts to the film's depiction of the creative process behind Pet Sounds, one of the most influential albums of all time. The hosts analyze how Love & Mercy showcases Wilson's innovative techniques and obsessive perfectionism in the studio, bringing to life the making of iconic songs. Nick argues that these scenes are the heart of the film, immersing viewers in Wilson's artistic brilliance, while Dan points out how the tension with bandmates and his domineering father adds layers to the story. Anthony highlights the film's ability to make the audience feel both the joy of creation and the weight of Wilson's mental health struggles. Of course, the discussion wouldn't be complete without addressing Paul Giamatti's chilling performance as Dr. Eugene Landy, the manipulative therapist who controlled Wilson's life in the 1980s. The hosts dissect the disturbing power dynamics between Landy and Wilson, with Elise noting that John Cusack's subdued performance contrasts well against Giamatti's overwhelming presence. They also explore Elizabeth Banks' role as Melinda Ledbetter, Wilson's eventual savior, and whether her character's arc is given enough depth. By the end of the episode, the trio reflects on Love & Mercy's rewatchability. While its emotional weight and unconventional structure might not make it an easy, casual rewatch, its powerful performances, immersive storytelling, and reverence for Brian Wilson's artistry make it a compelling experience. Whether you're a die-hard Beach Boys fan or just appreciate a well-crafted biopic, this discussion will leave you with a greater appreciation for the man behind the music.   https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0903657/

Carnie assured me she's never done an interview like this in her life, so it's an honor for Discograffiti's “Beach Boys: And Your Dreams Come True” Series to have had this opportunity. Here, then, is Part 1 of the longest interview Carnie's ever given, and on a subject she rarely talks about…her father's band, and what it means to her. She picked 7 of the most important Beach Boys albums of her life (plus a solo LP), which, if taken together, form a patchwork quilt that defines the essence of Dad as she knows him. We, of course, know him as Brian Wilson, and so rarely do we get to have such an intimate glimpse of him. Here's just a few of the many things Carnie discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Her father's typical breakfast in the 1970s; Carnie's memories of Grandpa Murry; How her parents felt about her Playboy appearance; What music's been playing uninterrupted on a loop for the last 19 years in Carnie's home; Carnie's fraught experiences while being looked after by Dr. Eugene Landy; And her feelings on Pet Sounds and Friends!

This week, we are taking a little detour into the past in our investigation with a Not Dunne Yet bonus episode from many moons ago. Dominick Dunne really did interact with so many characters in his various acts, and this week we take our man Nick connecting a whole throughline of folks you might not know were connected. From Elaine Young to Gig Young to Eugene Landy, with Brian Wilson on the side, back to Elizabeth Montgomery – and an added Cliff Robertson mention too. So many spiderwebs in this one that pull so much together.  To advertise on Done & Dunne, please reach out to info@amplitudemediapartners.com. Learn more about your ad choices.

 This week on the OETA Movie Club Podcast we discuss Love & Mercy! The life of reclusive Beach Boys songwriter and musician Brian Wilson (John Cusack), from his successes with highly-influential orchestral pop albums to his nervous breakdown and subsequent encounter with controversial therapist Dr. Eugene Landy.Support the show

Cade and Diane are joined by the amazing Ava to discuss two films about icons from the 1960's: First Man (2018) and Love & Mercy (2014). Watch the video version at: YouTube.com/@CadeThomas/streams Double Feature Movie Club is a weekly movie review show with a retro vibe. Two movies. Three people. One rambling conversation. Each film is our first time watching them. We often go off-topic. First Man is a 2018 American biographical drama film directed by Damien Chazelle from a screenplay by Josh Singer, based on the 2005 book of the same name by James R. Hansen. The film stars Ryan Gosling as Neil Armstrong, alongside Claire Foy, Jason Clarke, Kyle Chandler, Corey Stoll, Christopher Abbott, and Ciarán Hinds, and follows the years leading up to the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon in 1969. Love & Mercy is a 2014 American biographical drama film directed by Bill Pohlad about the Beach Boys' co-founder and leader Brian Wilson and his struggles with mental illness during the 1960s and 1980s. It stars Paul Dano and John Cusack as the young and middle-aged Wilson, respectively, with Elizabeth Banks as his second wife Melinda Ledbetter and Paul Giamatti as his psychologist Dr. Eugene Landy. The title comes from Wilson's 1988 song.

Brian and Phil Medley get into the disturbing details of Beach Boy Brian Wilson's twisted relationship with a self-help guru who was clearly only helping himself.

David Leaf is back to talk about his new book God Only Knows: The Story of Brian Wilson, The Beach Boys & the California Myth. The release includes the entirety of David's seminal 1978 book, plus its 1985 update, and most excitedly, a substantial new update that brings the story to the present. He tells us about his long-ago mission to befriend Brian and help him finish Smile; navigating Eugene Landy, Brian exorcising his demons and where he is at today, and The Beach Boys' 60th anniversary.

After months of frustration, the Beach Boys abandon Smile to work on new music. But for Brian it's not that easy. He's quickly losing control. He's betrayed by those meant to be closest to him. And one of his brothers is flirting with a dark and disturbing group of people living on the fringes of society…a so-called family that may or may not infiltrate the warm and sunny climes of the Beach Boys' world.

The story of Brian Wilson has been heavily documented through literature and film. There are a couple of perspectives that continuously get focus: Brian's brilliance as songwriter and harmony arranger. His troubled life and mental breakdown through the abuse of his jealous father Murry Wilson, the smothering treatment of status seeking psychiatrist Eugene Landy, and the questioning of his musical ambitions by the Beach Boys (well.....Mike Love) when he wanted to go beyond girls and cars as subject matter. Do we need another film about Brian Wilson? Welcome to episode 97 of See Hear Podcast. We welcome back to the show director Brent (No Relation) Wilson. Previously, he'd been on the show discussing his excellent documentary on Doo Wop, “Streetlight Harmonies”. This time around he joins myself and Bernie to talk about his new film “Brian Wilson: Long Promised Road”. Much of the film is of Brian in conversation with close friend and former Rolling Stone magazine editor, Jason Fine. The two drive around Los Angeles and use various locations to trigger Brian's memory about his past – personal and creative. Because much of this film features stories directly from Wilson himself (a notoriously reluctant talker), this film is very important. He opens up in a way he hasn't for many years – the information still comes out in small drops, but we see more of who he is via the manner of these conversations, as much as what is being said....for that reason alone, we needed another film about Brian Wilson. Brent talks to us about his passion for all things Beach Boys from an early age (when it was desperately uncool), the “hippocratic oath” he and Jason took, how Brian works with his band in the studio (and the love he inspires), and much more. Oh.....and he tells a story about something Brian said to Bono of U2.....now THAT has to be a first for See Hear. Bernie and I are hugely grateful to Brent for sharing his time, enthusiasm and stories with us. He's promised us to come back on a future show just to yak about a favourite music film round-table style. “Brian Wilson: Long Promised Road” is available on the usual streaming platforms like Prime (in the US), YouTube, Apple Tv, iTunes and Google Play.

Whilst you may have laboured under the misapprehension that the pen was a mere writing implement, in the world of movies it can do so much more. Mainly kill people according to our research. Will we find any benevolent biros when we discuss our Top 5 Movie Pens? LOVE & MERCY alternates between two key time periods in the life of The Beach Boys singer songwriter Brian Wilson, the 1960s and late 1980s, showing how he got into and out of a period of prolonged mental illness which occurred during the production, release, and reception of the critically adored but initially commercially disastrous PET SOUNDS album. A sensitive portrayal sees Paul Dano and John Cusack playing Wilson in the different time periods with his overbearing father and the monstrous psychiatrist Dr Eugene Landy as the abusers in his life and Elizabeth Banks as Melinda Ledbitter, the woman who eventually became his wife and freed him from his pharmaceutical prison. An extraordinary biopic causing one Bad Dad to reappraise Wilson as a serious artist as we see how he transcended his influences, combining the rock and or roll of Chuck Berry, the vocal harmonies of The Belmonts, the Spector Wall of Sound and surf guitar riffs to create a new sound that took the world by storm and continues to captivate now. Toy making genius Jimmy DiResta helms the Netflix series MAKING FUN in which his posse of impossibly bearded friends make improbably stupid objects for children just for the sheer hell of it. To show kids if they can dream it up, it can be built. As inspirational as all that sounds don't be fooled that Jimmy is a fan of kids, he most definitely isn't. In fact he dislikes them almost as much as he dislikes safety goggles. Burn! This week the team make a pair of Unicornicycles and just like in any real project the idiot customer changes their mind halfway through and adds a completely new requirement, in this case for the bikes to be able to fart glitter which is no worse than anything I have come across in the work place.We love to hear from our listeners! By which I mean we tolerate it. Try us on twitter @dads_film, on Facebook Bad Dads Film Review or on our website baddadsfilm.com. Until next time, we remain... Bad Dads

In this episode we welcome the legendary — and highly amusing — David Dalton to join us all the way from his rural retreat in upstate New York.We start by comparing our shocked reactions to Vladimir Putin's horrific invasion of Ukraine before asking David how he moved to America from England in 1961. He tells us about his mid-'60s adventures as a photographer of British Invasion acts like the Animals — with assistance from a pre-Beatle Linda McCartney — and then about his mid-stream switch to profiles of James Brown and Janis Joplin for Jann Wenner's nascent Rolling Stone.We revisit the award-winning 1970 Stone piece David co-wrote about Charles Manson and the Family, hearing along the way about Manson's connections with the Beach Boys. This leads almost seamlessly into clips from the late Andy Gill's 1988 audio interview with Dr. Eugene Landy, the shrink who "saved" Brian Wilson only to abuse his professional trust by inveigling his way into the singer's music and business affairs.We then return to the horrors of Manson when we ask David about the influence of Beatles tracks on the man who orchestrated the Tate-LaBianca killings. Our guest reminisces about working with Rolling Stone colleague Jonathan Cott on Get Back, the only book the Beatles ever commissioned, and we discuss with him the Fab Four's unhappy last days in the context of Peter Jackson's recent documentary of the same name.After David brings his American story full circle with memories of hanging out with Andy Warhol in 1961, Mark talks us through newly-added library pieces on Muddy Waters (1958), Brian Epstein (1963), the Who (1967) and Jerome "Doc" Pomus (1982), while Barney quotes from a review of a 1990 book about Eastern Bloc rock and Jasper mentions 2012 pieces about Kendrick Lamar and Green Day's American Idiot musical...Many thanks to special guest David Dalton; find his excellent biographies at any good bookshop and read his writing on RBP.Pieces discussed: David Dalton, Charles Manson, Eugene Landy audio, The Beatles, Muddy Waters, Bob Dylan, The Who, Brian Epstein, Johnny Mercer, "Doc" Pomus, Kendrick Lamar, Green Day musical, Rock around the Bloc.

We revisit the award-winning 1970 Stone piece David co-wrote about Charles Manson and the Family, hearing along the way about Manson's connections with the Beach Boys. This leads almost seamlessly into clips from the late Andy Gill's 1988 audio interview with Dr. Eugene Landy, the shrink who "saved" Brian Wilson only to abuse his professional trust by inveigling his way into the singer's music and business affairs. We then return to the horrors of Manson when we ask David about the influence of Beatles tracks on the man who orchestrated the Tate-LaBianca killings. Our guest reminisces about working with Rolling Stone colleague Jonathan Cott on Get Back, the only book the Beatles ever commissioned, and we discuss with him the Fab Four's unhappy last days in the context of Peter Jackson's recent documentary of the same name. After David brings his American story full circle with memories of hanging out with Andy Warhol in 1961, Mark talks us through newly-added library pieces on Muddy Waters (1958), Brian Epstein (1963), the Who (1967) and Jerome "Doc" Pomus (1982), while Barney quotes from a review of a 1990 book about Eastern Bloc rock and Jasper mentions 2012 pieces about Kendrick Lamar and Green Day's American Idiot musical... Many thanks to special guest David Dalton; find his excellent biographies at any good bookshop and read his writing on RBP. Pieces discussed: David Dalton, Charles Manson, Eugene Landy audio, The Beatles, Muddy Waters, Bob Dylan, The Who, Brian Epstein, Johnny Mercer, "Doc" Pomus, Kendrick Lamar, Green Day musical, Rock around the Bloc.

The History of Rock N Roll Part XII - Troubled Harmony: Brian Wilson & The Beach Boys This week Mr. Chavez & I continue our exploration into The History of Rock N Roll with a look at one of the seminal bands in the history of Southern California music . . . The Beach Boys. We take a look at the history with a focused look at band co-founder and principal songwriter Brian Wilson. Long heralded as a musical genius, it has been an interesting and compelling look into his life. This week we focus on four documentaries: Malcolm Leo's  hagiography The Beach Boys: An American Band (1985), Don Was's Brian Wilson: I Just Wasn't Made for These Times (1995), Brent Wilson's Brian Wilson: Long Promised Road (2021), and Bill Pohlad's 2014 Bio-Pic Love & Mercy featuring Paul Giamatti as psychologist, Dr. Eugene Landy, Elizabeth Banks as Wilson's second wife, Melinda Ledbetter, and as Wilson, Paul Giamatti (as the young Brian Wilson) and John Cusack as the older 1980s Brian Wilson. With the exception of Leon's doc, the films are interesting and thought-provoking regarding artistry, mental illness, and the combination of the two. It's a good talk and we're thrilled to go - a bit - outside of our comfort zone. Thanks for listening. Questions, Comments, Complaints, & Suggestions can be directed to gondoramos@yahoo.com. 

We cap the season with (arguably) Paul Dano's greatest performance, as legendary musician, Brian Wilson. On episode 8 of season 3 we were joined by the marvellous Anna Bogutskaya (writer/ broadcaster/ host at Wittertainment, Underwire Festival, The Final Girls and more). Love & Mercy stars Paul Dano and John Cusack as Brian Wilson, Elizabeth Banks and Melinda Ledbetter, Jake Abel and Mike Love and Paul Giamatti as Dr. Eugene Landy.

"Kind of wild that every major public update on Brian's well-being occurs on the Beach Boys' album cycle, almost like the capitalist desire to keep him working overrides the desire to keep him healthy. Makes you think, huh?" CW: This episode deals with the subject of physical and mental abuse. The movie LOVE & MERCY details some of that abuse, and those scenes will be recapped in this episode. It's our mid-season finale, and we finally tackle the elephant in the room — Brian's fraught relationship with Dr. Eugene Landy. In order to paint the picture more clearly, we've dug into years of archival research and set parallel paths between Brian and Britney's stories to uncover the dark side of the spotlight. Rosie talks Britney while Krista talks Brian, and both draft their favorite Brian Wilson track.

A biopic of Brian Wilson had been mooted ever since the late 1980s, but it wasn't until 2014 that Bill Pohlad's Love & Mercy was released, with its bold time-hopping structure that allowed both Paul Dano and John Cusack to play the Beach Boys' chief songwriter. The former played Wilson as he recorded Pet Sounds and his legendary unrealised Smile project, the latter played him as he struggled to escape the control of his abusive quack therapist Eugene Landy. It sounds a bit heavy - and it is - but the soundtrack is full of the most beautiful music ever made. On this week's episode of Pop Screen, Graham is joined by fellow Beach Boys fan Ewan to discuss the film and its clutch of impressive performances, including Bill Camp, Elizabeth Banks and Paul Giamatti as the monstrous Landy. We also discuss the strange circumstances which led to Pet Sounds becoming the definitive Beach Boys album despite having almost no band members play instruments on it, what the best Beach Boys song is, and why Graham's answer to that question is the correct one.

Any long time listener to this podcast will know that I absolutely love the Beach Boys and the music of Brian Wilson. This is essentially my opportunity to talk at my guest about how they are the most misunderstood band in popular music. My guest is Hamish from the STFU Dad music podcast (@silencefather on twitter) and I introduce him to some of my favourite Beach Boys tracks, and tell him some of the (weird and crazy) history of the band. If you're not already a fan, I'm sure much of it will surprise you! This episode we talk about: - All I Wanna Do (Brian Wilson and Mike Love - Sunflower) - Feel Flows (Carl Wilson - Surf's Up) - Slip On Through (Dennis WIlson - Sunflower) - You Need a Mess of Help To Stand Alone (Brian WIlson and Jack Rieley - Carl and the Passions) - Never Learn Not to Love - (Dennis Wilson... and a certain someone else - 20/20) - And the entire Smiley Smile album!

Hello fellow podcast lovers, this week we discuss the 666 continuing reasons that P***** P******* is a scourge on this earth.   THEN! We'll breakdown American Horror Story and the equally terrifying and humorous fleece at REI.   Donna Karan has some thoughts about 9/11 and body suits, if you can handle it.   All of this and we've all lost 40lbs. Unless that invokes the patriarchy or something TAWDRY.   Don't be your own Eugene Landy!

Andy Gill joins us to recount the full story of The Beach Boys' Smile, recounting Brian Wilson's odd partnership with the ever-voluble Van Dyke Parks, the stubbornness and luxuriant chest hair of Mike Love, the underwater misadventures of Dennis Wilson, the often misrepresented Dr Eugene Landy and the trans-Atlantic battle for supremacy between the former Pendletons and the Beatles.
