Madeline, Julian, and Emilio continue their cycle of Offbeat Musicals with a "Two-Shot" on a pair of turn-of-the-millennium glam-rock extravaganzas: Todd Haynes' "Velvet Goldmine" (1998) and John Cameron Mitchell's "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" (2001). Marking their fifth - yes, fifth - discussion on a Todd Haynes film, the trio begin by unpacking "Velvet Goldmine" and its refraction of the legacies of 1970s glam-rock icons such as David Bowie, Iggy Pop, Lou Reed, T. Rex, and Roxy Music. Presented in "Citizen Kane"-like fashion, the film conveys a distinct impression of a well-known popular music era without ever mentioning any of the aforementioned artists by name, and wandering in and out of the realms that often classify a musical. Premiering around the same time off-Broadway was the show that would then be adapted into the second film of focus, "Hedwig and the Angry Inch," unambiguously a musical, but one for people who may less typically gravitate to the genre. Drawing from many of the same influences in music, "Hedwig" portrays the unique story of the titular performer, from her fraught upbringing in East Berlin to her stateside music career with backing band the Angry Inch, and the numerous experiences that fan her rock-and-roll flames along the way.Listen to Dougie's Glam-a-Rama here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOjsoFA6he4_bWfjlCtNFoPf9Xr2cOofn&si=Vth2DPJed7RKNa7xIf you enjoy our podcast, please rate and review us on your podcast platform of choice.

Episode 387: Why Talented Actors Stay Invisible

Acting Business Boot Camp

There are so many incredibly talented actors out there. And so many of them do not get seen. Meanwhile there are actors with less training booking roles more regularly. And if you are one of those highly trained actors, that is so freaking frustrating. It brings up all the not so helpful questions. Am I not good enough? Why am I not getting these opportunities? Insert your favorite self-doubt here. But here's the truth. Talent alone does not guarantee visibility. I know this as a casting director. I also know this as an actor. Talent Is Only One Piece of the Puzzle Acting is an art. Just like painting, just like dancing, just like writing. But the industry that hires actors is a business. And casting directors, I can certainly say this for myself, are not only looking for great performances. We're also asking very practical questions. Does this actor fit this role? Do they understand the tone, the energy of the project? Do I feel they are professional and prepared? And then my personal favorite: does this actor know they are a good actor? What tends to happen is actors focus entirely on craft while overlooking the business side. And if you want to make a living as an actor you need to understand that both parts matter. Actually I'd say there's a third part. One of my favorite casting directors of all time, David Katy, talks about this. It's a three part job. The art, the business, and the work on yourself. Clarity Around Your Positioning One of the reasons talented actors stay invisible is that casting directors don't know where to place them. Or they try to present themselves as everything, and that just doesn't work. Confusion makes me delete. It really does. It makes me discard and move on. Go for the low hanging fruit. If you've ever seen pictures of me I am very blonde, blue-eyed, very east coast. I look like I went to preparatory school in Connecticut. And you know why? Because that's exactly what I am. I am the boss. I am the lawyer. That's my low hanging fruit. I'll tell you an embarrassing story. When I was 16 I went to a summer course at the American Academy of Dramatic Art in New York and I wanted to do Runaways. A show about kids on the street, in foster care, drug addicted. I would love to go back to my 16 year old self and say honey, that ain't you. Any John Hughes monologue would have been so much more appropriate. But hey, I was 16. And I met a really cute boy there so that was awesome. The point is, be where you're at. Go for what you really are. Casting works insanely quickly and we need to understand in seconds where you fit. Visibility Requires Consistent Action Another reason talented actors remain invisible is that they are not consistently putting themselves out into the industry ecosystem. Most careers grow through steady participation in the professional community. Steady participation. A lot of actors wait for the industry to discover them. They wait for the phone to ring. That is just not how it works anymore. What I call putting your business on a schedule means knowing exactly what to do and when to do it throughout the year. Auditions, networking, social media, industry relationships, creating your own work, staying engaged with casting directors and collaborators. Gabrielle Bernstein says the energy you put out is the energy you attract. That steady participation energy is so important. Confidence and Presence This is the secret sauce. This is the thing I cannot state strongly enough. I was talking to my teacher Ken Ray from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London, who has taught Michelle Dockery, Damien Lewis, Joseph Fiennes, Orlando Bloom, Hayley Atwell, Lily James, Ewan McGregor. I asked him what is the thing they all have. And he talked about presence. That energy. That is what I am always looking to cultivate with my clients. Two actors can have equal talent. The one who walks in with grounded confidence is the one who makes the stronger impression and books the job. It's the actor who is good at their job and knows they're good at their job. Confidence doesn't mean arrogance. It means believing you belong in the room. Confidence isn't something that casting gives you. It's something you decide before you go in the door, before you push record on that self tape. The only person I ever have to convince is me. And that just happens to be the hardest person on the planet. But that's the only person I have to convince. The Bottom Line Talent matters. But visibility in this industry comes from a combination of things. Craft, clarity, consistency, and confidence. It's a three part job. The art, the business, and the work on yourself. Talent can open the possibility of an incredible acting career. But clarity and consistency and confidence is what allows the industry to really see you. Want to Keep the Conversation Going? For a limited time I am opening up my calendar for free 15 minute Zoom consults. Email me at peter@actingbusinessbootcamp.com for a time slot.

Hay películas que te atrapan por determinados motivos, por su estética, por su música, por su acción. Big Fish es una película que desde el primer momento me atrapó por su corazón. Un cuento moderno que, de la mano de Tim Burton, nos va a presentar a este mentiroso maravilloso interpretado de forma excepcional por Albert Finney y por el absolutamente carismático Ewan McGregor y que nos llevan a lo largo de todo el metraje por la historia de su vida, mientras su hijo trata de descubrir quién es realmente este hombre, este “cuenta cuentos”. Si esta película tiene además una cualidad excepcional es que absolutamente todas las personas con las que he hablado y la han visto coincidimos que tiene la maravillosa virtud de atraparte, pellizcarte el corazón y que termines con una sonrisa de oreja a oreja y un mar de lágrimas saliendo de tus ojos y doy gracias de haberla descubierto en su momento sin saber que me iba a encontrar al verla, porque hizo que el camino fuera, de principio a fin, una auténtica sorpresa a disfrutar. Adentrarte en esos parajes, esos pueblos, conocer a cada uno de los personajes, a cada cual más maravilloso que el anterior y por supuesto descubrir junto a Edward al amor de su vida.

Ottavio Fatica"Operazione Shylock"Philip RothPrefazione: Emmanuel CarrèreAdelphiwww.adelphi.it«Un libro infernale, che non si riesce a smettere di leggere. Una riflessione sul giudaismo, su Israele, sull'invecchiare, sulla menzogna, sull'invenzione, sulla letteratura – su tutto ciò che conta nella vita. Assolutamente vertiginoso. Leggetelo» (Emmanuel Carrère). Traduzione di Ottavio FaticaTraduzione della prefazione di Emmanuel Carrère: Ena MarchiNella sua burrascosa carriera, Philip Roth ci ha abituato alle più spericolate acrobazie narrative, ma mai ha osato tanto quanto in Operazione Shylock, dove, per dire e fare tutto ciò che vuole, ha sentito il bisogno di misurarsi con il suo più temibile avversario: un altro Philip Roth – stesso nome e stessi connotati, solo il nomignolo Moishe Pipik a distinguerlo da sé. Mai il tema del Doppio è stato usato in un romanzo con un tale autolesivo virtuosismo. Roth azzanna sé stesso come essere umano, come ebreo, come Philip Roth, e non si accontenta di una libbra di carne. Come congegnare, altrimenti, una spy story che tiene insieme il Mossad, il processo al mostro di Treblinka, il recupero dopo un crollo psichico da Halcion, l'incontro-scontro con ebrei e palestinesi in una Gerusalemme pattugliata dall'esercito israeliano, il faccia a faccia ustorio con l'altro Philip Roth – un megalomane che per salvare gli ebrei ashkenaziti da un probabile prossimo sterminio si fa propugnatore di una nuova diaspora, uno spregiudicato controesodo verso i paesi europei d'origine – e con la sua procace, concupita compagna? Sfoggiando una lingua viscerale e insieme altamente speculativa, Roth combina in queste pagine la più spiritata, isterica commedia nera con il dramma di popoli e di singoli individui lacerati, e mette in scena una mirabolante due-giorni a Gerusalemme che – incredibile a dirsi – fa anche ridere.Philip Milton Roth nasce a Newark, nel New Jersey, il 19 marzo del 1933 in una famiglia della piccola borghesia ebraica. Si laurea alla Bucknell University e fa un master in letteratura inglese all'Università di Chicago. Pubblica i primi racconti sulla Paris Review, su Esquire e sul New Yorker. Il suo capolavoro è Pastorale Americana, con cui vince il Premio Pulitzer nel 1997 e da cui è stato tratto un film da Ewan McGregor, che interpreta anche il ruolo del protagonista. Il libro fa parte una trilogia che comprende Ho sposato un comunista e La macchia umana. Il suo esordio avviene nel 1959 con Addio Columbus. Dieci anni dopo la fama con Il lamento di Portnoy, in cui il protagonista, un trentenne ebreo, Alexander Portnoy, racconta all'analista le proprie nevrosi sessuali.Autore di trentuno libri, Roth è stato un critico feroce della società americana, della sessualità maschile e dei falsi miti dell'uomo occidentale (in Complotto contro l'America del 2004 immagina che alle elezioni per la presidenza americana del 1940 venga eletto Charles Lindbergh anziché Roosevelt, e che questo trasformi gli Stati Uniti in un alleato della Germania nazista). Nel 2009 annuncia il suo ritiro dall'attività di romanziere. Il suo nome è apparso spesso nella lista dei concorrenti al premio Nobel per la letteratura. Muore a New York il 22 maggio 2018.Ottavio FaticaFamoso per le sue numerose traduzioni, ricordiamo: il Moby-Dick di Melville, quasi tutto Kipling, i diari di Byron, i limerick di Lear, Céline, Henry James. Per Einaudi ha pubblicato nella collana Collezione di poesie, Le omissioni (2009) e Vicino alla dimora del serpente (2019).Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

In this engaging conversation, David Peck interviews Matt Whitaker and Rupert Evans about their film Truth and Treason. They explore the complexities of good and evil and the emotional weight of loyalty and doubt in the context of Nazi Germany. We dig into the nature of violence, the importance of subtext in relationships, and the challenges of bravery and conformity. The film serves as a poignant reminder of the need for compassion and the call to action against oppression in today's world.Rupert Evans is an actor and director best known for his leading roles in Amazon's The Man in the High Castle, CBS's Charmed & Netflix's Bridgerton Season 2. His recent work includes the BBC adaptation of the Moonflower Murders alongside Lesley Manville, & the Nordic crime drama Wisting.

He has since starred in American Pastoral with Ewan McGregor & Jennifer Connelly, the thriller The Boy with Lauren Cohan, and Alejandro Amenábar's Agora opposite Rachel Weisz. Evans has led acclaimed productions such as the Golden Globe–nominated Emma & the BAFTA nominated Fingersmith. His other notable credits include The Secrets, Fleming, The Village, Lucan, World Without End, and Poirot.On stage, Evans is a Royal Shakespeare Company alumnus, having played the Dauphin in King John, earning an Ian Charleson Award nomination.Matt Whitaker has written and directed for film and television, becoming a leading storyteller for more than 30 years, in the WWII genre. His produced screenplays include the acclaimed war dramas Saints & Soldiers & Instrument of War. Beyond narrative features, he has creative-produced or directed over 100 commercials and short films across more than 30 countries. Whitaker's documentary work includes award winning films for PBS such as Ancestors & Small Fortunes: Microcredit & the Future of Poverty, featuring Nobel Prize Laureate Muhammad Yunus & Academy Award–winning actress Linda Hunt.In 2002, Whitaker traveled to Germany with the last surviving member of a teenage resistance group opposing the Nazis.

Paying tribute to the classic no-sex sex comedies from the late '50s and early '60s, Down With Love is a wonderful, bright, kitschy romcom classic that seems to be well regarded, if not completely well remembered.Renee Zellweger (fresh from Chicago) and Ewan McGregor (fresh from Moulin Rouge) tackle roles similar to those made famous by girl-next-door-turned-sex-symbol Doris Day and serious-actor-turned-romantic-lead Rock Hudson, in a genuinely wonderful pastiche to their movies Pillow Talk (1959), Lover Come Back (1961) and Send Me No Flowers (1964). (I watched Pillow Talk as part of my prep for this episode, and I have to say it's a truly delightful movie and Doris Day is incredible in it! Please watch it if you can!)Down With Love is so impressive in its desire to not only be set in the sixties, but also to be filmed like it were filmed in the Sixties. It's meant to look like it was filmed in Technicolor. The thought that went into it is insane, from authentic props and vintage fabrics for costuming, to wanting the sets to actually look just like sets. Down With Love is not a film steeped in realistic depictions of 1962 New York. It's meant to look wonky. It relishes, and adores, the world its set in. The entire cast look like they're having the best time ever.I just wish more people knew of it... This episode was originally released on 16th July 2020 Mentioned in this episode:From the ArchiveThere's no new episode this week, so I thought you might be interested in revisiting this slightly older, but no less brilliant episode. Just bear in mind, this episode is several years old, it may not sound quite as polished as newer episodes, and new information may have come to light in recent years with regards to the making of this movie (please see above for the original date of release) Please enjoy this time capsule of an episode.

Frank, Squeaks, and Thomas cover a packed week: dream casting for Netflix's BioShock movie, first takes on the Avengers Doomsday reveal out of Shanghai and what it signals for Doctor Doom in the MCU, Star Trek Day highlights and what the 60th anniversary year could look like, quick reactions to the 77th Emmys, why Warner Bros. Discovery is suing Midjourney, and fresh DCU talk after new Superman images and a 2027 date. We close with recommendations and a fast tour around the Geek Freaks Network. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Welcome, mid-week vibes, and today's lineup 01:14 Question of the Week: BioShock movie casting picks for Andrew Ryan, Atlas, Jack, and Little Sisters 07:02 Con updates: CrackerCon appearances, SDC Town Hall, LA Comic Con plans 08:22 Avengers Doomsday first look: Doom's armor, magic tech blend, symbols, and power-level stakes 19:42 Star Trek Day roundup: Starfleet Academy, preschool series on YouTube, scripted Khan audio series, LEGO collab, 60th anniversary plans, Trek cruise, and the Skydance chatter 34:37 Emmys 77 reactions: Studio's comedy sweep, Hacks love, Severance kudos, Andor writing win, and Hannah Einbinder's speech 41:27 WB Discovery vs Midjourney: what the lawsuit argues, fair use vs training, and where fan art fits 51:42 Superman Saga update: 2027 date, new images, Lex team-ups, Brainiac theories, and what to avoid with multiverse fatigue 58:34 Quick hits to watch for next week: TikTok U.S. buyout deadline, Disney + Webtoon digital comics platform 58:59 Recommendations: Foundation, Borderlands 4, Dimension 20 and Critical Role hype 01:04:34 Around the Geek Freaks Network and sign-off Key Takeaways BioShock casting drew strong picks like Cillian Murphy for Andrew Ryan and Gerard Butler or James McAvoy for Atlas, with Ewan McGregor floated for an all-voice heavy Atlas. The Doomsday footage suggests a Doom who mixes sorcery and engineering. Runes, sigils, and visuals hint at a villain who can carry multiverse-level stakes. Star Trek is gearing up for a busy 60th year with new shows, a kids series on YouTube to hook the next generation, a scripted Khan audio drama, and a LEGO partnership. Emmys 77 landed well for comedy and recognized top craft like Andor's writing. Studio earned the “actual comedy” praise many fans were looking for. The Midjourney suit could set important lines around training on copyrighted works. The show breaks down the difference between commentary fair use and model training. DCU chatter points to Brainiac as the smart next-step foil that forces a Lex and Superman team-up, while keeping the multiverse in check. Community notes: Geek Freaks will be out at events, and the Network has new episodes across the slate. Quotes “It looks comic accurate. More than I thought it would be.” “They're really good at visual storytelling in the MCU. This is the next facet of that.” “Studio is what The Bear pretended to be for years.” “We're in the early stages of the law. You have to scrape the edges to shape something that makes sense.” “Can we just not do the multiverse?
