Podcasts about Exterminating Angel

What happens when a lavish dinner party refuses to end? Mike is joined by filmmaker Miguel Llansó and critic Rob St. Mary to unpack the surreal social satire of Luis Buñuel's The Exterminating Angel (1962). In this sharp and strange masterwork, a group of upper-crust guests find themselves mysteriously unable to leave a post-opera gathering—days pass, civility erodes, and Buñuel's absurdist lens skewers class, ritual, and the thin veneer of order.From sheep in the parlor to the creeping dread of inaction, we discuss the film's dream logic, religious and political interpretations, and its place in Buñuel's legendary career. Whether you're trapped by tradition, status, or just polite company, The Exterminating Angel remains one of cinema's most biting allegories—and we're not letting you leave until we've talked it through.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

Thomas Adès is one of the UK's foremost and most successful composers. His first opera, Powder Her Face, was premiered in 1995, when he was just 24. With its racy subject matter, based on the life of the Duchess of Argyll, it put him squarely on the musical map, winning widespread critical acclaim. His catalogue now includes almost 90 works, with commissions from the world's leading orchestras and festivals, two further operas, The Tempest and The Exterminating Angel, and an epic ballet score for Wayne McGregor, Dante, based on the Divine Comedy.To anticipate the UK premiere of his new work, Aquifer, at the 2024 BBC Proms, Thomas Adès talks to Michael Berkeley about his musical inspirations and passions, including works by Schubert, Chopin, Walton, Stravinsky, Berg and Harrison Birtwistle.Producer Graham Rogers

When 20 or so upper class reveler's end up at a post-opera gathering hosted by one of their peers, everything seems perfectly… polite.  But then director Luis Buñuel imparts upon them the one unbreakable rule of the film: no one can ever leave the well-appointed drawing room.  Ever.  What follows is a study in the logistics of human survival, depravity, and an allegory of the lies we tell ourselves as we sink into fascism.

Our Alternate Oscars episodes, based on Danny Peary's fantastic 1992 book of the same name, have always been among our most popular. Over the course of the podcast, we've covered the 1930's, 1950's, 1970's, 1980's, 1990's, and the 2000's. Comparing what films actually won Best Picture to what we believe should have won is always a fun challenge, and it has given us a chance over the years to open or reopen some doors for our listeners to movies that are overlooked and forgotten. When we came to the 1950's episode, in an (eerily prophetic) split decision, we chose to include only English-language works, since the sheer volume of brilliant films from around the world in that decade would overwhelm both us and you, dear listeners. As we approached the 1960's for this episode, however, we reasoned that the relative lack of great American films from the decade suggested that this time around, we should open our tent to the entire world. We could not stand idly by, for instance while "A Man for All Seasons", lovely though it is, walked away with Best Picture in the year of films like "Persona", "Masculin/Feminin" and "Blow-Up". Our worries about the length of the episode, however, turned out to be justified and then some; therefore, we needed to split the episode into two parts. So with that, we are thrilled to present our first episode(s) since our triumphant, celebratory live recording of Episode 50 in March: thus Episodes 51A (1960-1964) and 51B (1965-1969), Alternate Oscars: The 1960's Edition. There were a couple of things that really hit us as we were creating this entry in the Vintage Sand catalogue. The first is that an unexpectedly high number of our choices were, in fact, American films, suggesting that while common wisdom avers that Hollywood suffered a creative decline in the 60's, there were a lot of great things happening just below the surface that were, unwittingly perhaps, paving the way for the revolution of the American New Wave that would come in the early 1970's. And the deeper we dove into the cinema of the 60's, we came to really understand the fundamental difference between those works and film today. Simply put, it was a time when directors really seemed to trust their audience's intelligence and imagination. This is most obvious in structurally elliptical puzzle films like Resnais' "Last Year at Marienbad", Buñuel's "The Exterminating Angel", Antonioni's "L'Avventura" and "Blow-Up", Bergman's "Persona" and even Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey". But in ways big and small, and in terms both of performance and filmmaking technique, there is in 60's film a refreshing absence of rat-on-the-balcony-rail-at-the-end-of-"Departed" heavy-handedness that seems to be a common thread in the work of even our greatest directors today. So with all this in mind, strap in and join us for our odyssey through 60's cinema. It promises to be highly irregular, Dave…

Luis Buñuel was a master at creating lasting images that stay in the viewers brain long after the film is over. He had a career that spanned multiple decades and working in multiple countries, yet he consistantly took aim at political and social elites.  In his 1962 masterpiece, The Exterminating Angel, the acclaimed filmmaker crafts an allegorical comedy that confronts the socio-political realities of Franco's Spain. Infused with a surrealistic touch and a substantial dose of satire, the film allows for a multi-layered interpretation. Plus, it's just plain funny to watch the rich fall apart and destroy themselves.  Follow us at: Patreon / Twitter / Instagram / Letterboxd / Facebook

https://notesonfilm1.com/2023/10/08/el-esqueleto-de-la-senora-morales-the-skeleton-of-mrs-morales-rogelio-a-gonzalez-mexico-1960/ A taxidermist is married to a wife who constantly nags, feigns illness and tells neighbours he's is abusing her whenever he doesn't do what she wants. What do you think will happen? EL ESQUELETO DE LA SEÑORA MORALES/ THE SKELETON OF MRS MORALES (Rogelio A. Gonzalez. Mexico, 1960) was voted 19th in a list of the top 100 films in the history of Mexican cinema and currently on MUBI as part of the ‘Spectacle Every Day: The Many Seasons of Mexican Cinema'. Based on a short story by Arthur Machen, ‘The Islington Mystery, the film stars Arturo de Córdova, Amparo Rivelles and Elda Peralta and is written by Luis Alcoriza, who that year also wrote Buñuel's THE EXTERMINATING ANGEL'. In the podcast we discuss all of this plus the film's visuals, pacing, tone, whether it's macabre rather than Surrealist…and more. Our favourite in the series thus far. Rogelio A. González is a director we'd never heard of. This film makes us want to see more of his work.

Kate MacKay. Photo: BAMPFA Kate MacKay, Associate Film Curator at Berkeley Art Museum Pacific Film Archive, discusses a retrospective of the films of the great Spanish director Luis Bunuel playing through November 19, 2023, with host Richard Wolinsky. Luis Bunuel began his career working with Salvador Dali on the film “Un Chien Andalou,” a masterpiece of the Surrealist movement. After working on another film with Dali, “L'Age d'Or,” and creating a documentary known today as “Las Hurdes” (Land Without Bread), he spent nearly two decades in the Mexican film industry before coming to Hollywood first, and then working with European producers to create masterwork after masterwork, from Viridiana to Belle du Jour to Tristana, The Exterminating Angel, TheDiscreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie through to The Phantom of Liberty and That Obscure Object of Desire. The retrospective contains all the later films plus several rarely seen films from his Mexican period. Recorded at BAMPFA July 7, 2023. Special thanks to AJ Fox.

Kathrine Barnes Co-Stars in the New BET+ Series, 'Average Joe', which premiered last night following the BET Awards. The BET Awards aired on almost every single Paramount Global owned cable station, including Nickelodeon, which was quite confusing, but what wasn't confusing is that Barnes had such an impact on the BET executives that her character was extended to 7 or the 10 episodes during the first season. Barnes has been seen on such TV shows like, 'Queer As Folk', 'Candy' and the Sundance film, 'The Glorias', as well as, 'Moonshot: Faceless After Dark and Walden.' She has also appeared on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, Christmas Special, 'Adult Swim Yule Log.' A mega Julie Andrews fan, Barnes was only slightly impressed that I knew of Andrews' film, 'SOB', which shed her Mary Poppins image in the early 1980s. However, she did talk about her architect sister and where she would throw a, "Don't you know who I am?" celebrity style tantrum once she is more readily recognized.  Barnes is also a Co-founder & Producing Partner at Vernal & Sere Theatre, she recently partnered with the Luis Buñuel Film Institute to mount the world-premiere stage adaptation of Buñuel's 1962 surrealist masterpiece, The Exterminating Angel, in which she played Silvia, the Duchess of Avila. In the series 'Average Joe',Barnes co-stars with leading man, Deon Cole, Tammy Townsend, Cynthia McWilliams, Malcolm Barrett and many others. Kathrine plays the recurring role (7-8 episodes out of 10) of 'Arina' which is nicknamed, "The Chameleon," a former KGB assassin and enforcer for the Russian mob who is dragged out of retirement and back into the world of fighting for her life in Pasha Lychnikoff's world. 'Average Joe', which premiered on BET's new streaming service BET+ last night following the BET Awards. 'Average Joe' will stream once a week for the next 10 weeks on Sunday nights.

https://notesonfilm1.com/2023/02/11/thinking-aloud-about-film-el-castillo-de-la-pureza-castle-of-purity-arturo-ripstein-mexico-1972/ I've been wanting to see Arturo Ripstein films for decades and never had the opportunity. Now MUBI is showing five of his films and, on the basis of El Castillo de la pureza/ The Castle of Purity, I plan to see them all. The film is based on a real story – not unlike that of the Wests or Joseph Fritzl – of a man who keeps his family locked in the house to protect them from the perversions of the world even as he – the only one allowed outside – indulges in every perversion the outside world allows him. When he comes home – the family, who've been working all day manufacturing the poison that is their living – gets all his self-hatred projected onto them, keeping them off-balance and under his thumb. The shadow of Buñuel overhangs this film – Ripstein had been his assistant on The Exterminating Angel, which bears some resemblance to this film, and Claudio Brook (Simon of the Desert) and Rita Macedo (The Criminal Life of Archibaldo de la Cruz) – the stars – also performed for Buñuel. A beautifully designed film, with a textured creepiness that envelops the family, one that is not just due to rain and shadows that seep right into the home (the outside world is always sunny and bright) but a moral murkiness, a perversion that is the result of that imperious patriarchal insistence on ‘purity'. A marvellous film. We discussed all the above and more in the podcast.

This episode of the B-Movie Cast, Mary and Nic are joined by Juan to take a look at a classic of Mexican Cinema, that somewhat defies description: “The Exterminating Angel” (Spanish: El ángel exterminador). It's a 1962 Mexican surrealist film written and directed by Luis Buñuel. It tells a story we can all identify with,

Garret and Nicole discuss Triangle of Sadness. We disagree on the value of the movie and about anti-capitalism. We get into a generational debate about what it means to eat the rich. Nicole recommends The Exterminating Angel and Garret recommends The Square, After the Dark, and Anne Frank's poetry. Website Store YouTube Twitter Facebook Group Page

In honor of Anna's birthday, she and Krista talk about all the good, bad and funny WTF moments and productions they've encountered in their opera learnings. They revisit Munich's production of Yeet the Baby, Coney Island Cosi and of course The Exterminating Angel. So many moments!

In the seventeenth episode of Season 7 (Fantastical Realities) Kyle is joined by a panel of guests, novelist Samuel Cullado, fellow cinephile Jordan Berry, and filmmaker Alejandro Etcheagaray, to discuss Luis Buñuel's embittered and nasty dissection on the illusion of upper class mores and stature in the famous surrealist work The Exterminating Angel (1962).

Oh noes, Anna has The Rona! Since she's not feeling well, Krista decided to give you all a look back at what was, at that point, the worst opera they'd seen. Prokofiev snatched that title away from Thomas Ades, but The Exterminating Angel made them want to, to use the word of the day, scromit.

Claustrophobic, paranoia and confrontations with mortality: the mental and material barriers on the enclosed settings of Luis Buñuel's The Exterminating Angel (1962) and M. Night Shyamalan's Old (2021) make them the ultimate lockdown movies. But what else might this surrealist classic and tonally weird mainstream horror have in common? How do their performances of intimate, domestic space map onto our own age of digital surveillance? And what have the rich learned (or not learnt) in their period of insular isolation?

In this first edition of the Director's Highlight series, Aric and Marisa take on selected films of the controversial juggernaut Luis Buñuel. They spotlight three memorable periods of his long career: his surrealist origins in Paris, his filmmaking in Mexico, and his great late career run of films produced in France.These eras of Buñuel's career are examined through six films: UN CHIEN ANDALOU (1929), Buñuel and Salvador Dali's surrealist experimental short, VIRIDIANA (1961), the acclaimed Palme d'Or winning critique of religous charity, THE EXTERMINATING ANGEL (1962), an absurd satire of aristocratic norms, THE MILKY WAY (1969), a spiritual road film questioning the significance of religious virtues, THE DISCREET CHARM OF THE BOURGEOISIE (1972), a film about an illogical dinner party that turns catastrophic, and THE PHANTOM OF LIBERTY (1974), a film arranged by dream-logic that passes through episodes of history. Please consider supporting this show through our Patreon!Keep up with us on Instagram and Twitter: @filmchatterpod.Check out the films mentioned in this episode on our Letterboxd.Thanks for tuning in!Powered and distributed by Simplecast

Luis Buñuel was a man who absolutely loved a metaphorical dinner party. I believe The Exterminating Angel is our fourth encounter with one in one of the man's films, and it may be one of my favorites, though they are all amazing in their own right. This week Criterion also provides us with some bonus biographical material on Buñuel that includes a story about ruining a Christmas dinner at Charlie Chaplins house and calling it "praxis". This week is also the first of a one-two punch of Buñuel's final Mexican films. While this week focuses on the aristocracy (and a little on religion), next week swings hard at organized Christianity and I can't wait to share that episode with you as well.

Jana, Dylan, and Nick get stuck inside a podcast discussing the movie The Exterminating Angel where people get stuck inside and can't get out and can't get out.

Trevor and Raul dive back into 1960's weirdness with 1962's The Exterminating Angel. An iconic work by the Spanish/Mexican director Luis Buñuel, The Exterminating Angel follows the events of an uppity dinner party as it devolves into chaos... for pretty much no reason at all. Have you ever had the experience of guests overstaying their welcome and your hospitality by not going home even though it's 3AM!? What's that? You've forgotten what a party is, and you haven't left your home in 9 months? Fair enough, but thankfully Luis Buñuel has, on this weeks... Film Hole.

In this special quarantine lock-down edition of the podcast, we discuss the classic Luis Buñuel film from 1962, The Exterminating Angel. (El ángel exterminador. ) Because of the current pandemic, this film has become very relatable to our lives, but that doesn't make it any less weird.

Thomas Ades, hailed as Britain's greatest composer since Benjamin Britten, on the premiere of The Exterminating Angel, his opera which is based on Louis Bunuel's 1962 surrealist film and features live sheep on the Royal Opera House stage. What if a deer did porn? Is it legal to marry a stuffed owl exhibit? Why is it so difficult to find a baby called Gary? American poet Patricia Lockwood ponders all of these in Motherland Fatherland Homelandsexuals, her new collection which also features the autobiographical poem Rape Joke, a viral hit on the internet. The poetry collection is published to coincide with her memoir Priestdaddy, which details growing up in a religious household with an ordained Catholic Priest as a father.The quirky superhero film Guardians of the Galaxy was the surprise hit of 2014. Cinema-goers loved the rag-tag group of lesser-known Marvel Comics characters, their bickering humour and the awesome mix tape that provided the soundtrack. Samira Ahmed talks to writer and director James Gunn about bringing the gang back together for Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2 and creating another awesome mix tape of retro tunes to accompany their latest space adventure.Presenter: Samira Ahmed Producer: Jack Soper.
