Film critic and author Alonso Duralde joins Michael Phillips to explore a piece of filmmaking wisdom from Vincente Minnelli: that a picture which stays with an audience is built from “a hundred or more hidden things.”Drawing on films ranging from Meet Me in St. Louis, Some Came Running, If Beale Street Could Talk, and Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, they consider how production design, performance, music, camera movement, and seemingly minor visual choices accumulate into something lasting.

When The Exorcist hit theaters in 1973, audiences were terrified by what they saw on screen—but the stories surrounding the making of the film were almost as disturbing.From unexplained accidents and injuries to fires, deaths, strange occurrences, and claims of paranormal activity, the production of The Exorcist developed a reputation for being cursed. Several people connected to the film reported unsettling experiences, while others wondered whether the movie's subject matter had somehow followed the cast and crew off the set.In this episode of Seven Deadly Sinners, we step behind the scenes of one of the most controversial horror films ever made and explore the bizarre, frightening, and sometimes downright inexplicable events surrounding its production. Was the set truly haunted? Was something darker at work? Or did a troubled production, coincidence, and the power of suggestion create a legend that has lasted for decades?Either way, the story behind The Exorcist may be almost as terrifying as the movie itself.

Laurence Kardish is the former senior curator in the Museum of Modern Art’s Department of Film, where his career spanned more than forty years and where he organized over a thousand film exhibitions covering the history and culture of the moving image. In the mid-1960s, Kardish worked at the Film-makers’ Distribution Center with artists such as Shirley Clarke, Jonas Mekas, and Andy Warhol. He now teaches at New York’s School of Visual Arts and codirects an annual festival, FilmColumbia, in Chatham, New York. The festival this year takes place October 16—25. https://youtu.be/HMs1H2-NOps Shirley Clarke (1919–1997) was an American independent filmmaker, electronic media pioneer, and teacher who resisted the norm wherever life brought her. A decade after receiving her first camera as a wedding present, Clarke launched her film career with the short Dance in the Sun (1953). Her documentary “Skyscraper” (1959) garnered an Academy Award nomination, and her first feature film, “The Connection” (1961), adapted from Jack Gelber’s off-Broadway play portraying artists with heroin addictions, sparked attention when the State of New York censored it for obscenity. While Clarke’s documentary “Robert Frost: A Lover’s Quarrel with the World” (1963) won an Oscar, she is perhaps best known for directing “Portrait of Jason” (1967), which features an interview with a gay Black man openly discussing his life as an entertainer and sex worker, his successes, and his experiences with discrimination. Until now, Clarke’s legacy has been largely pushed to history’s margins. In “Shirley Clarke“, author Laurence Kardish presents a vivid portrait of a filmmaker whose life was often at odds with the societal expectations of a privileged woman born in twentieth-century New York City—a woman who admitted to being deeply conflicted about motherhood and who advocated for reproductive rights. Frequently allowing Clarke to speak through her diaries, this biography traces her life from birth to modern dance training, personal relationships, struggles with mental illness, video adventures on the roof of the Chelsea Hotel, and collaborations with creatives like Agnès Varda, Sam Shepard, and Ornette Coleman. Kardish offers an up-close account of a rebel who battled convention to depict the raw truth on screen, a filmmaker whose countercultural impact and innovations in diverse media deserve wider attention.

This episode, it's time to hunker down as a siege is about to happen. First up, we take a look at the John Carpenter Classic ASSAULT ON PRECIENCT 13. Then, a bunch of tenants in an apartment building fight back in TENEMENT: GAME OF SURVIVAL.

Ben and Rob step into Labyrinth, Jim Henson's 1986 fantasy adventure that turned a puppeteer's most personal creative risk into a genre-defining cult classic. Directed by Jim Henson from a screenplay credited to Monty Python's Terry Jones, the film stars David Bowie as the Goblin King Jareth and a fourteen year old Jennifer Connelly as Sarah, a girl who has thirteen hours to solve an ever-shifting maze and rescue her baby brother from Jareth's clutches.How did a limo ride home from a Dark Crystal screening turn into a story about goblins stealing babies, and why did the finished script pass through the hands of a Monty Python legend, a Fraggle Rock lyricist, and George Lucas before anyone was happy with it? What made David Bowie the obvious choice to play Jareth when Sting, Prince, and Michael Jackson were all in the running, and how much of the film's most memorable moments came down to pure, unscripted chemistry on set? Why did a film this ambitious flop so badly on release and what does it say that a story about a girl choosing to grow up came at the exact moment its director's own life was falling apart?And finally… what does it really mean?!Find us on your socials of choice at www.linktr.ee/everymovieeverpodcastIf you enjoyed the show and want more, head on over to Patreon and enjoy heaps of exclusive content there!

Harry Styles als liebevoller Ehemann im Amerika der 50er Jahre: Die Frau kocht, der Mann geht zur Arbeit.. Aber der Film dreht schnell von Romantik auf Psychothriller.

Was bleibt von uns, wenn unsere Kinder eines Tages unsere Stimme nicht mehr hören können? In dieser Folge von Krebs als zweite Chance – Der Mutmacher Podcast spreche ich mit Dr. Sarah Krämer und Dr. Klaus Hönig, den Projektleitungen der Ulmer Schatzkiste. Die Ulmer Schatzkiste begleitet Eltern mit einer unheilbaren Krebserkrankung und minderjährigen Kindern dabei, etwas ganz Persönliches für ihre Familie zu bewahren: den Film ihres Lebens. Professionell psychoonkologisch begleitet erzählen die Eltern von ihrem Leben. Von Kindheit und Familie. Von Lieblingsmomenten und schwierigen Zeiten. Von ihren Kindern, ihren Werten und ihren Eigenheiten. Von dem, was sie lieben. Und von Botschaften, die vielleicht erst viele Jahre später gehört werden sollen. Sarah und Klaus erzählen uns, wie die Idee vor sechs Jahren durch die Begegnung mit einer jungen Mutter entstand, warum die Vorbereitung auf einen solchen Film mehrere Wochen dauert – und weshalb eine Schatzkiste keineswegs bedeutet, dass jemand aufgegeben hat. Ganz besonders berührt hat mich die Geschichte der allerersten Teilnehmerin. Jahre später begegneten Sarah und Klaus ihrem Mann wieder. Die gemeinsamen Kinder waren beim Tod ihrer Mutter erst vier und sechs Jahre alt. Heute holen sie die Schatzkiste ihrer Mama zu besonderen Momenten hervor und schauen gemeinsam ihren Film. Ihr Vater bezeichnete ihn als etwas unglaublich Kostbares, das ihnen von ihr geblieben ist. Und genau darum geht es in dieser Folge: Nicht der Tod steht im Mittelpunkt. Sondern das Leben. Die Liebe. Und Erinnerungen, die bleiben dürfen. Wir sprechen außerdem darüber, warum in der Villa Eberhardt nicht nur Tränen fließen, sondern unglaublich viel gelacht wird, weshalb Sarah und Klaus sich wünschen, dass Betroffene möglichst früh Kontakt aufnehmen, wie die Ulmer Schatzkiste finanziert wird und wie jede und jeder von uns dieses Projekt unterstützen kann.

On this week's episode, I'm rejoined by the one and only Chris McKenna who, alongside writing partner Erik Sommers, cowrote the highest-grossing film of all time, domestically: Spider-Man: Brand New Day. He broke down the thought process that went into getting Peter Parker back together with his friends, the tricky negotiations between Marvel and Sony over who could use which characters and when, and posited some alternate futures about what the story could have looked like. On the episode, we also discussed Haunted Hotel, which comes back for season number two on October 9. Chris is an Executive Producer on that show; you may remember that I interviewed the showrunner, Matt Roller, about it last year. It's fun! Add it to your watchlist!

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between.  Today we discuss New Jersey legend James Gandolfini! Our B-Sides include: The Mexican, Romance & Cigarettes, Cinema Verite, and The Drop. Our guest literally wrote the book on Gandolfini! Jason Bailey, author of Gandolfini Jim, Tony, and the Life of a Legend. He also co-hosts the podcast “Guide for the Film Fanatic” on the One Heat Minute Productions network. I was honored to chat about The Adventures of Robin Hood on the pod not too long ago! We discuss Gandolfini's early years as a character actor, his fun times on the set of the holiday debacle Surviving Christmas, and the chemistry of friendship that Gandolfini and Julia Roberts build in the underrated The Mexican.  Jason dishes on the process of writing his great book, we all lament the next act of great Gandolfini performances we did not get, and I remember some iconic episodes from The Sopranos. We discuss his playful energy and singular legacy, and what could have been. There's also a chat about Jason's upcoming book YIPPEE KI-YAY "Die Hard,” Bruce Willis, and the Reinvention of the Action Movie.

This week on Bad Dads Film Review, Sidey, Dan and Reegs finish “Reach Around Week” with Jack Reacher, the 2012 Christopher McQuarrie action thriller starring Tom Cruise as Lee Child's wandering ex-military investigator. After watching Alan Ritchson's Prime Video version in the Midweeker, the dads now turn to the film that gave many book fans their first major complaint before the opening credits had even rolled: Tom Cruise is many things, but he is not 6'5".The episode begins with the real main event, which is obviously walking football. The dads' team has beaten Madeira 3–0, Dan has scored, Sidey is still protecting his clean-sheet record, and the squad has somehow been told off at half-time despite being ahead. Christian is missing after a suspected bout of sunstroke, while recent viewing includes Reegs watching The Patient, Dan falling into YouTube pinball and arcade content, Sidey continuing through Barry, and a new version of The Grand Tour that appears to have enough Amazon money behind it to launch a car into another tax bracket.Before the film, the Top 5 theme is short people, or at least people who are not especially tall. That means Dustin Hoffman, Katharine Hepburn, the Oompa-Loompas, Mickey Rooney, Martin Short, Al Pacino, Daniel Radcliffe, Prince, Danny DeVito, Verne Troyer, Hervé Villechaize, Warwick Davis, Charlie Chaplin, Napoleon, Michael J. Fox and Michael J. Anderson all come up in a list that moves freely between Oscar history, Jersey trivia, Austin Powers, Twin Peaks, Bill & Ted, The Simpsons, Purple Rain and the frankly irresistible existence of a 2 foot 9 Filipino action star called Weng Weng in For Your Height Only.Then it is time for Jack Reacher, which opens with a cold and nasty sniper sequence. A man sets up in a parking garage, watches ordinary people through a rifle scope and kills five of them in public. The sequence is not especially gory, but the dads find it grim and effective, especially because the victims seem so arbitrary. The police quickly gather evidence pointing to James Barr, an ex-army sniper with previous, and the case appears open and shut until Barr writes one message during interrogation: “Get Jack Reacher.”Reacher arrives already wrapped in myth. The authorities describe him as a decorated military-police ghost with a ridiculous list of medals, only for him to appear at the door before anyone can find him. He knows Barr from the army and once warned him that if he ever killed again, Reacher would come for him. That means he is not initially there to prove Barr innocent; he is there to make sure the right punishment lands on the right man.Rosamund Pike plays Helen Rodin, Barr's defence lawyer and the daughter of the undefeated district attorney. Reacher agrees to investigate while sending Helen to learn about the victims, because he has already started to suspect that five random deaths may not be random at all. From there, the film becomes a conspiracy thriller about a staged mass shooting, a framed sniper, a murdered woman who may have been the real target, and a corrupt network hiding behind official certainty.The dads enjoy several of the action beats. Reacher's bar fight works because he predicts exactly what will happen before it happens, tells the men they wanted it, and then has to take a few shots while still finishing the job. The car chase is a highlight, partly because the film goes out of its way to show that Cruise is really doing the driving, with clean practical shots rather than incoherent cutting. Robert Duvall also turns up as Cash, a grizzled shooting-range owner who only agrees to help after making Reacher prove he can still hit the target, because apparently crucial murder evidence must sometimes be unlocked through old-man range banter.Werner Herzog is the secret weapon as the Zec, a shadowy villain with a damaged eye, a Gulag backstory and the sort of voice that makes every line sound like a cursed bedtime story. The dads particularly enjoy the scene where he demands a subordinate prove his worth by chewing off his own fingers, because the Zec once did exactly that to survive. Herzog is so strange and sinister that the only real complaint is that the film does not use him more.The final stretch takes the story to a quarry, because action thrillers love a quarry almost as much as they love corrupt cops. Cash provides sniper support, Reacher works his way through the henchmen, fights Jai Courtney's Charlie, exposes Detective Emerson as part of the plot, rescues Helen, and then deals with the Zec in the most Reacher way possible. The villain explains that prison will not scare him and that the case may not stick, so Reacher shoots him. When Helen asks what happened to justice, he says he just delivered it.Verdicts are positive but qualified. Dan thinks the film was more fun to discuss than to watch and prefers Alan Ritchson as the physical idea of Reacher, though he still credits Cruise's stunt work and the film's better action moments. Reegs also prefers the series but sees this as a solid, well-made, pulpy thriller with patient pacing and clear set pieces. Sidey likes the procedural shape, the conspiracy reveal, the car chase, Robert Duvall and Werner Herzog, but finds the film grey and a little sterile, and thinks Reacher's low-charisma wandering-avenger persona can be hard to fully love.So the Bad Dads verdict is a moderate-to-strong recommend: Jack Reacher is not the definitive version of the character, and Tom Cruise is never going to be the 6'5" human wall from the books, but as a tough, slightly overlong, well-staged action conspiracy thriller, it does enough. Also, any film where Werner Herzog quietly explains finger-eating survival tactics deserves at least some respect.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

Arsenic and Old Lace, Frank Capra's dark comedy, is both a beloved classic and a surprisingly divisive film. We explore Cary Grant's frantic performance, the movie's theatrical roots, Peter Lorre's standout comic timing, and the delicate challenge of making murder feel charming rather than disturbing, without giving away all the twists. The result is an affectionate but honest look at a film whose macabre premise, eccentric characters, and escalating chaos still invite debate.

Certain smells can instantly transport you back to another time and place — sometimes more vividly than a photograph ever could. Why is your sense of smell so closely tied to memory, and why are those memories often so emotional?

You can't reach a human being, the chatbot sends you in circles, you wait on hold forever, and sometimes it seems as if the company would simply prefer that you give up. So what actually works when you have a problem and need someone to fix it? Christopher Elliott has spent years helping consumers get results, and he explains the strategies that work, the mistakes that can make things worse, and how some companies manage to provide extraordinary service while others fail miserably. Christopher is a consumer advocate and nationally syndicated columnist who writes the newsletter Elliott Confidential. You can find his work and subscribe at https://www.elliott.org.

Remote controls are incredibly convenient — right up until you lose one in the couch cushions or stare at a row of buttons you have never pressed and have no idea what they do. And the remote has changed far more than just the way we watch television. The surprisingly interesting story of how remote controls came to be, how they changed our behavior, and where they may be headed next is told by Caetlin Benson-Allott. She is a professor of English and Film & Media Studies at Georgetown University and author of the book Remote Control (https://amzn.to/4xDig5W).

Few know of the original short story that inspired Alfred Hitchcock's iconic horror film, “The Birds” - but it's that story that I'm sharing with you tonight.THE STORY: On December 3rd the wind turns east and winter lands overnight on a Cornish peninsula, where Nat Hocken, a part-time farm worker living on a wartime disability pension, wakes to something tapping at the bedroom window. By dawn there are fifty dead birds on the floor of his children's room, and out in the bay the gulls are massing by the tens of thousands, riding the swells and waiting on the tide. Nat boards his windows and stuffs his chimneys while the wireless carries a Home Office statement, then a national emergency, then nothing at all; he works out that the attacks rise and fall with the flood tide, and measures his family's odds in bread, candles, and kerosene. Evan Hunter's screenplay moved the story to Bodega Bay and built new characters around du Maurier's title, keeping her unexplained attacks and little else. The original ends with Nat lighting the last cigarette in the packet and throwing the empty one on the fire.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/mitm-thebirdsSOURCES and RESOURCES: “The Birds” by Daphne du Maurier from the book, “Alfred Hitchcock Presents My Favorites In Suspense”: https://amzn.to/3knkjZ3WeirdDarkness® is a registered trademark.

Concrete may be the world's most widely used building material, but it isn't widely considered a stimulating topic of conversation. John Wilson, filmmaker and creator of "How To with John Wilson", discusses his new documentary, "The History of Concrete," about the hidden side of a material that's more fallible than we might think and why we should care.

Black on Black Cinema tackles Trump's ongoing assault on American landmarks. The East Wing of the White House was abruptly demolished last October, sparking legal battles over the approval process. Now the Kennedy Center is facing demolition threats over his childish desire to have his name on the building. The historic East Potomac cherry blossom grove; a 1912 gift from Japan is at real risk as Trump terminates a 50-year lease to build a "championship" golf course, with debris from the demolished East Wing literally dumped on the same site. The Lincoln Memorial's Reflecting Pool sits in disarray after a botched, unbid renovation.We ask the harder question: why does this president's legacy consistently manifest as destruction rather than creation? And as Black people, we sit with the real complexity here, many of these landmarks were built by enslaved people, monuments to a history that never fully included us. Is preservation even our fight? We land somewhere honest: this is still our country, our history, our capital, and watching it get torn down for spite and a golf handicap isn't something we're willing to be apathetic about, however complicated our relationship to these buildings really is.The next film to be review will be "I Love Boosters," written and directed by Boots Riley. The film follows a group of shoplifters who take aim at a cutthroat fashion maven by stealing her clothes and reselling them at a lower price, what they call "fashion-forward philanthropy."Black on Black Cinema is a long-running podcast featuring in-depth Black movie reviews and frank conversations that matter to the Black community.
