"Am I hallucinating *all* of this? You tell me it's all a dream." We get to the ultra-disco noir fever dream Eyes of Laura Mars with our resident Faye Dunaway expert and friend, Garrett Mitchell, this week. It's been a while since we've covered Miss Dunaway on the podcast, but she's truly one of the most iconic leading ladies of the 1970s, that all peaked with Irvin Kershner's thriller set in the backdrop of a gritty NYC in the fashion world. This movie might not be along the lines of 70s classics, but we're here to say it's a heck of a ride. With a story by John Carpenter and produced by Jon Peters, who bought the story with the idea of it being a star vehicle for his then-girlfriend Barbra Streisand at the time before it went to Dunaway, the film follows Laura Mars, a fierce fashion photographer, as she develops an ability to see through the eyes of a killer. We talk about Faye's insane levels on display, René Auberjonois as some fun queer representation, Tommy Lee Jones's unibrow, and a secretly sexy Brad Dourif.

And: Network is a satirical comedy-drama written by Paddy Chayefsky and directed by Sidney Lumet. It was nominated for 10 Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and it won four, including Best Actor in a Leading Role for Peter Finch, Best Actress in a Leading Role for Faye Dunaway, Best Actress in a Supporting Role for Beatrice Straight, and Best Original Screenplay for Chayefsky.

The 89th Academy Awards reached its grand finale on 26th February 2017, with a balls-up that instantly entered Hollywood lore. Presenters Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway stepped onstage to announce Best Picture and declared La La Land the winner. Cast and crew flooded the stage, speeches began, and the orchestra swelled - but the true winner, of course, was Moonlight. Beatty's visible hesitation, replayed endlessly since, stemmed from a simple but catastrophic mistake: he had been handed the duplicate Best Actress envelope, reading “Emma Stone - La La Land”. Unsure how to proceed, he showed the card to Dunaway; believing he was prolonging the suspense, she read out the film's title. Only as producer Jordan Horowitz was thanking his family did the truth ripple across the stage: “This is not a joke. Moonlight, you guys won Best Picture.” The error was traced to PricewaterhouseCoopers partner Brian Cullinan, who had mistakenly handed over the duplicate envelope while distracted backstage, reportedly after tweeting a photograph of Emma Stone with her Oscar. The irony was sharp: PricewaterhouseCoopers had supervised the Academy's voting process since 1935, originally engaged after controversy surrounding Bette Davis's 1934 snub, and prided itself on meticulous safeguards, including identical sets of envelopes held on either side of the stage. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly force themselves to re-watch the excruciating moment repeatedly; consider how, following two years of #OscarsSoWhite criticism, the blunder landed at a particularly sensitive moment for the Academy; and admire the way the La La Land team somehow met this emotional rollercoaster with savviness and tact… Further Reading: • ‘The Full Story Behind The 'La La Land' And 'Moonlight' Oscars Mix-Up' (Forbes, 2017): https://www.forbes.com/sites/natalierobehmed/2017/02/27/the-full-story-behind-the-la-la-land-and-moonlight-oscars-mix-up/ • ‘How Scandal Started PwC's Oscars Vote Count, Envelope System' (TIME, 2018): https://time.com/5182902/pwc-academy-awards-oscars-snub/ • ‘Oscars Mistake: Moonlight Wins Best Picture after La La Land Mistakenly Announced' (ABC, 2017): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvK-g1rehpU&t=1s #Mistakes #Film #2010s #Hollywood Join
SEASON 4 EPISODE 60: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Arizona Senate Republicans just introduced a measure to make ICE MANDATORY at polling places this November. Mandatory. At voting booths. This November. No - It won’t pass. This time. But this does dispel any MAGA crap that this isn't the goal, that rounding up immigrants isn't just practice. Happily, DHS and MAGA are too busy purging themselves. Maybe just as importantly: Does Trump look drawn and unnaturally thin in the face? Like, lost a lot of girth in the face - the kind of thing where people who don’t know say “you’ve lost a lot of weight, you look great” – except you don’t? Also he has just confused Harmeet Dhillon for Phyllis Diller. Standard stuff. But he made a different gaffe that you just can’t write off because it’s new. It’s not something stupid – it’s something he’s misplaced, mentally. The one Trump blunder that suggests he’s getting WORSE: The Penn Station post. AND HOW THE DEATH OF ROBERT DUVALL mainlines into the death of CBS News and the prophesy of Duvall's most important film: Network. Which you should go watch, today. B-Block (50:00) PART TWO of my list of the nearly two dozen destructive changes we are now suffering from, in television news and media in general, that we were warned by, by Paddy Chayefsky, by Peter Finch, Faye Dunaway, Robert Duvall, and director Sidney Lumet. C-Block (1:10:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: A little out of order, but still really good. Tom Emmer, Minnesota moron.

Catherine Zeta‑Jones, Mariah Carey, Faye Dunaway, Mel Gibson, Demi Lovato, Jean‑Claude Van Damme, Kanye West. Sie alle werden mit einer bipolaren Störung in Verbindung gebracht. Meist, weil sie selbst von dieser Diagnose berichten. Macht „bipolar sein“ kreativ oder exzentrisch? Oder entschuldigt es soziales Fehlverhalten? Franca und Christian sprechen heute heute über den jungen Nils und andere Fälle, die zeigen, wie sich die bipolare Störung im Alltag von nicht so prominenten Menschen zeigt.

Emir Kusturica's Arizona Dream drifts between deadpan comedy and waking dream, a film where ambition, escape, and American myth collide at odd angles. Written by David Atkins and directed by Emir Kusturica, the 1993 features Axel (Johnny Depp) stranded between New York routine and Arctic fantasia after his cousin (Vincent Gallo) drags him west to Arizona. There, Axel falls into orbit around his Uncle Leo (Jerry Lewis) and the Stalkers—mother and daughter played by Faye Dunaway and Lili Taylor—each chasing a private version of freedom.Mike, joined by co-hosts Andras Jones and David Rodgers, unpacks how Arizona Dream bends tone and narrative into something closer to folklore than plot, balancing melancholy against absurdity. The conversation explores Kusturica's outsider view of America, the film's uneasy relationship with realism, and the way dreams—Inuit or otherwise—function as both refuge and trap. Mike also talks with screenwriter David Atkins about shaping the script, collaborating with Kusturica, and navigating a studio-era release that never quite knew what to do with a movie this strange.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

Send us a textThe YardsA family crime drama set in New York City with a sick mother, ambivalently abusive father figure, and nudity along with a role for Domenick Lombardozzi (The Wire's Herc)? Get out your James Gray bingo cards, because Season 16 Gray Poop On (working title) persists with TGTPTU continuing in Episode 3 its temporal pincer movement covering the auteur's second film THE YARDS (2000). Filmed on film in the spring and summer of 1998 but due to studio delays and reshoots not released until the fall of 2000, The Yards stars the still up-and-coming Mark Walburg as Leo Handler just out of jail and being led back into a life of crime by Joaquin Phoenix as Willie Gutierrez, the guy dating and soon betrothed to Leo's cousin and possible love interest Erica Soltz played by a pre-Monster Charlize Theron. This trio of rising stars is supported by a trio of 70s hall of famers (James Caan, Ellen Burstyn, and Faye Dunaway) in a story about NYC train maintenance, government corruption, family loyalties, and the need for proper bannisters. Cowritten with Matt Reeves (opinions vary) and shot with multiple POV characters, Gray would find the story in the editing room (and subsequent reshoots) by winnowing it down to Walburg's singular perspective only to have that story mollified (or straight-up mauled from Gray's perspective) by a studio-noted happier ending. This ep, you won't be getting Ken's half-hour discussion with Ryan about Theron's surprising nude scene, but Thomas will provide context for international and homeschool listeners in the U.S., Myanmar, and Liberia.

Happy New Year, Filmlosophers! We are kicking off 2026 with high energy and even higher hijinks! Hosts Eddie and Spencer, joined by Intern Manager (and Managing Intern) Amy, are launching a brand-new mini-series to start the year: "Reel Rewinds!" To celebrate, the crew is traveling back 30 years to check into the majestic Majestic Hotel for a nostalgic look at the 1996 kids' classic, Dunston Checks In. The team dives deep into this chaotic gem starring Jason Alexander, Faye Dunaway, and a jewel-thieving orangutan. They discuss why this specific brand of animal-centric slapstick is a lost art, the surprising practical effects, and the hilarious (and slightly uncomfortable) reality that a movie about a primate terrorizing a luxury hotel would have a very tough time getting greenlit today. Does the movie still hold the key to our hearts, or should it have stayed in the lost-and-found? Grab your room service and join The Filmlosophers for a wild start to the new year!

Send us a textThis week on Fabulous Film and Friends we're going to pay tribute to the late, great Robert Reford and analyze just why this Hollywood icon belonged on the top of Mt. Olympus long before vanity, sanctimony and crass commercialism ruined his artistry. In other words, before he tarnished his legacy with offensive tripe like The Legend of Bagger Vance, the execrable Indecent Proposal and most especially by appearing as a generic schmoe bad guy #5 in Marvel movies, he was literally the undisputed KING of the Hollywood Hill starting with 1969's Downhill Racer directed by Michael Ritchie co-starring Gene Hackman, Camilla Sparv, Kenneth Kirk, Jim McMullan, Walter Stroud and Dabney Coleman in his ever so brief dreamboat era. Then Redford was his solid oakiest in 1972's Jeremiah Johnson directed by Sydney Pollack and co-starring Will Gear, Delle Bolton, Josh Albee, Paul Benedict, Jack Covin and Stefan Gierasch. And he showed us all how paranoid thrillers were done with 1975's 3 Days of the Condor directed once again by Sydney Pollack and co-starring Faye Dunaway, Max Von Sydow, John Houseman and Cliff RobertsonI'm your host Gino Caputi leading my dream team of scoffers and detractors, lil sis Roseanne Caputi and photobug/actor/gadfly Alex Robertson. Before we hit the trails on career highlights, the synopses:Downhill RacerAn arrogant young skier, David Chappellet, rockets to the top of the U.S. ski team, heedlessly chasing medals, without regard for his teammates or his Coach who tries without success rein him in. ⸻Jeremiah JohnsonA war-weary loner heads into the Rockies to live off the land and find peace, but the wilderness has other notion, transforming Jeremiah Johnson from naive pilgrim to Legendary Crow Killer, forged by experience and hardship. ⸻3 Days of the CondorMild-mannered CIA researcher Joe Turner, aka Condor, goes out for lunch and comes back to find everyone he works with dead. Suddenly Condor finds himself hunted, running from his own agency and clinging to the one woman who might trust him. Can he unravel the truth — before the deep state eats him alive?Why was Robert Redford the Hollywood GOAT? Find out!Watch the podcast on Youtube:https://youtu.be/zy0CtssU0-0

This week we grapple with the problematics of Chinatown (1974), arguably one of the greatest neo-noirs, with a fraught and complicated history thanks to its director, Roman Polanski. Starring Jack Nicholson and Faye Dunaway, Chinatown represents the bleakness of noir amid the sunniness of LA, with a hefty dose of political and sexual corruption. Oof. TW for discussions of sexual assault and incest. Next week, we conclude Noirvember with a far happier entry: Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

Click here to try it out!In this episode, we wade into Chinatown — a sun-bleached noir where water is power, everyone's lying, and the system wins. We talk Jack Nicholson's bandaged nose, Faye Dunaway's glass-shard fragility, John Huston's all-time villainy, and that ending that still guts you. Yes, we address the director caveat up front; then we focus on what's on screen: A precision-engineered thriller that never wastes a line, a clue, or a cut.What we coverWhy “Chinatown”? The title's bleak punchline and what “forget it” really means in a city built on corruption.Follow the water: Droughts, land grabs, cooked records, and a murder that only makes sense when you trace the pipes.Noir done right: Goldsmith's moody trumpet score, razor tailoring, art-deco menace, and how every tiny detail pays off.Iconic moments: The nose slice (cameo alert), the “my sister/my daughter” reveal, and the slow-motion horror of the finale.Performances: Nicholson's cocky PI unravelled, Dunaway's haunted elegance, Huston's monstrous calm.The ethics disclaimer: Separating a notorious off-screen history from on-screen craft — and why that discomfort belongs in the conversation.Context chats: How the screenplay became a template, the year it ran into The Godfather Part II, and why the ending had to be that ending.Should you watch it?If you like your mysteries tidy and comforting, this isn't that. If you want clockwork plotting, glorious craft, and a finish that lingers… it's essential. We're candid, a bit feral, and very fun about it.“Every throwaway line is a breadcrumb. By the time you see the trail, it's already too late.”

Yep, it's another episode of GLoP, where three middle-aged men wander from topic to topic like your drunk uncles at Thanksgiving—except with more references to 1970s TV pilots and less pie. This week's meandering odyssey covers the full spectrum: wiping Faye Dunaway's… dignity, debating whether puppies can survive her PR aura, discovering that Superman might be unpopular overseas because America is now “meh,” lamenting the death of big loud comedies (RIP, Naked Gun), and reviewing TV shows no one under 50 has heard of but everyone pretends to watch. Along the way, you'll get unsolicited opinions on Colbert's cancellation (spoiler: yay), the economics of late-night TV, why Hungarian tax rebates are the real star of international thrillers, and an extended meditation on historical body odor.

Peter Wolf didn't want to write the typical rock and roll memoir filled with lurid tales and score settling. Instead he wanted to write a collection of short stories that stem from his serendipitous encounters with everyone from Marilyn Monroe to David Lynch. Peter tells Marc how he wrestled with his own memories to write the book, how he drew from his friendships with Bob Dylan, Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker, and how he got right with the topics he wanted to avoid, namely his time with The J. Geils Band and his marriage to Faye Dunaway. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
