TVC 682.5: Burt Kearns, author of SHEMP! The Biography of The Three Stooges' Shemp Howard: The Face of Film Comedy, talks to Ed and guest co-host Chuck Harter about how the repeated blows to the head that Shemp Howard, Curly Howard, and Larry Fine all took during the many live appearances that The Three Stooges made every year during their annual hiatus from Columbia Pictures resulted in cerebral hemorrhages that proved to be fatal for all three actors. SHEMP! is available through Applause Books.

TVC 682.4: Burt Kearns, author of SHEMP! The Biography of The Three Stooges' Shemp Howard: The Face of Film Comedy, talks to Ed and guest co-host Chuck Harter about some of the more notable roles in Shemp Howard's diverse career as a solo actor, including Private Buckaroo (1942), a musical comedy featuring Harry James, The Andrews Sisters, and Mary Wickes that Burt says is as close to a star vehicle that Shemp ever had; why Shemp rejoined The Stooges in 1946, after Curly's debilitating stroke; and why rejoining the Stooges gave Shemp an immortality that he may not have achieved had he remained on his own. SHEMP! is available through Applause Books.

TVC 682.3: Ed and guest co-host Chuck Harter welcome award-winning producer, director, writer, journalist, and author Burt Kearns. Burt's latest book, SHEMP! The Biography of The Three Stooges' Shemp Howard: The Face of Film Comedy, not only takes a deep dive into the life and career of Shemp Howard—one of the original members of The Three Stooges and, in real life, the older brother of Moe Howard and Curly Howard—but debunks many myths both about Shemp's career before and during The Three Stooges and about Shemp's personal life, including some myths that were perpetuated by either Moe Howard or members of Moe's family. SHEMP! is available through Applause Books.

After his death in 1955, actor and comedian Shemp Howard, best known as a charter member of what would become the Three Stooges, was for years the subject of fabrications perpetuated by younger brother and fellow Stooge Moe Howard in the latter's autobiography (which was published after Moe's death). Those myths have since been debunked by Burt Kearns, author of the book SHEMP!: The Biography of The Three Stooges'  Shemp Howard, The Face of Film Comedy.

An unprofessional documentary film crew follows five amateur runners as they train for Devil's Canyon Marathon, an offbeat desert race organized by Ed Clap, a desperate shoe store owner pulling out all the stops to celebrate its fifteenth year. Said the filmmakers of the cast, “Every mock-doc lives and dies by its cast, so the spotlight should be on them, not us. Thankfully, we had a company of Las Vegas comedic stars from Cirque du Soleil, Absinthe, Second City, and Blue Man Group... mixed with a few up-and-coming and hilarious Upright Citizens Brigade actors from LA. That's our statement”.   Adds the P.A, “Look, man, I was just getting $150/day. I can't really comment on the overall vision.”   Marathon is on digital and On Demand July 6 from Gravitas Ventures. ● Media Inquiries: October Coast www.octobercoastpr.com

She used that money to fund her short film called "Devour". According to the article on oswego.edu: [Victoria] Diana's “Devour” is a drama following former lovers on different trajectories in ia chef who is about to close for the night at his struggling, once successful, restaurant, when an old flame shows up at his door,' Diana said. 'She is now a rising actress, who traveled up to Syracuse from NYC, in search of a familiar comfort.' Two of her friends, Kristin Noriega and Kevin Miner, presented Diana with the concept and which she immediately found exciting. “I love food, and the relationships people have with it. I also wanted to explore nostalgia, and the rose-colored tint it gives our memories,” Diana said. “For ‘Devour,' I challenged myself by writing a drama (my comfort zone is comedy); but for fun, I went dialogue-crazy.” Find Victoria doing bits on Tik Tok, reposting them on Instagram, and shit-posting on Facebook.

Pop Art Painter Jamie Roxx (www.JamieRoxx.us) welcomes Ryan Barton-Grimley and Ari Schneider, filmmakers (Hawk and Rev: Vampire Slayers, Film | Comedy 2020) to the Show!  Facebook: www.facebook.com/HawkandRevWeb: rgbfilms.com Says writer/director Ryan Barton Grimley, “So why the heck did I make my film Hawk and Rev: Vampire Slayers? Honestly… The world is just so serious. It’s exhausting being tapped into media and technology 24 hours a day. It’s really intense how many issues are happening around the world. There are so many problems everywhere and I was looking for an escape… I was looking for a laugh and something heartfelt. I was looking for some much-needed levity and humor. I was looking for a break. Hawk and Rev: Vampire Slayers is quite simply a love-letter to my childhood and a more innocent and clueless time when everything seemed possible and like it would turn out okay. It’s a love letter to goofy weirdos with big dreams and ridiculous ideas. It’s just plain old fashioned escapism. Sure, there are themes and morals and critiques of the 80’s, specifically toxic masculinity and homophobia in there too, but at the end of the day, I really just hope you enjoy the ride and leave with a nice heartfelt feeling and the knowledge that maybe… just maybe… we’ll all be okay. “ Media Inquiries for Hawk and Rev: Vampire Slayers, Film: October Coast www.octobercoastpr.com

This week on The Spectator Film Podcast… The Death of Stalin (2017) 11.14.19 Featuring: Austin, Maxx Commentary Track begins at 17:57 — Notes — “What’s Fact and Fiction in The Death of Stalin” by Ellin Stein from Slate The Penguin Dictionary of Critical Theory by David Macey — This is a wonderfully useful reference guide to various critical terms one might encounter in various field of cultural study. Highly recommended. We’ll include some of the relevant terms from our discussion below: Hyperreality “A term used by Eco (1975) in an essay on the culture of those American museums and theme parks where an illusion of absolute reality is created by holographs, dioramas and detailed reproductions of original works of art. They represent a hyperreal dimension in which the American imagination demands the real thing and, in order to attain it, fabricates the absolute fake. With cynical amusement, Eco describes the facsimile of the bill of sale of Manhattan to be found in museum shops. It looks old, feels old and even smells old. It is almost real. But, Eco points out, its pseudo-antique characters are written in English whereas the original was in Dutch. Hyperreality is the defining characteristic of amusement cities such as Las Vegas or Disneyland ; they are real fakes. They are also more real than the real. The real crocodile in the zoo may be asleep or hiding, but Disneyland’s fake-real crocodiles never fail to appear on cue. Baudrillard also describes Disneyland in these terms, and is fascinated by the way in which it causes the aesthetic to disappear into kitsch and hyperreality (1986). Whilst the notion of hyperreality obviously stems from an encounter between European intellectuals and American culture, hyperreality itself is now more familiar thanks to Eurodisney and the Centerparc holiday resorts which reproduce a semi-tropical climate inside domes in the English countryside.” Panopticism “Expression formed from ‘pan’ and ‘optic’ (‘all-seeing’) and coined by Foucault (1975) to describe a form of power which relies not upon overt repression but upon the constant surveillance of a population and ‘discipline’, or the regimentation of the body. Panopticism is an important feature of modern disciplinary societies. Foucault derives the notion of panopticism from the writings of British utilitarian philosopher Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832; see the materials collected as Bentham 1996). Bentham’s original ‘panopticon’ is a model prison. A tower stands at the centre of a hollow circular structure housing a number of individual cells. The tower, which is also circular, is pierced by windows that allow a supervisor to look into the cells without being seen. The individual prisoner never knows whether he is under surveillance or not, and therefore assumes that he is; he is trapped by visibility. For Foucault, the major effect of the panopticon is to induce in the inmate a feeling of conscious and permanent visibility that ensures the automatic functioning of a regime of silent discipline. He argues that panopticism is also a structural feature of mental hospitals, educational institutions and factories, and that it introduces a regime of power based upon visibility and silence. Foucault’s study of panopticism and the origins of the modern prison system opens with a diptych contrasting the noisy spectacle of the public judicial torture of the Ancien Regime and the silent discipline of the contemporary prison.” A Companion to Film Comedy edited by Andrew Horton and Joanna E. Rapf — We didn’t make use of them during the episode, but there are several compelling essays here that can provide lots of insight into a film like The Death of Stalin – “The Totalitarian Comedy of Lubitch’s To Be or Not To Be” by Maria DiBattista being the most directly related; it’s fantastic. While we gladly recommend the essays in this anthology, Wiley-Blackwell books tend to come with an extortionate price tag. Do not buy this book at full price, if you can help it. — Corrections — We recorded this episode on November 14th, Olga Kurylenko’s birthday, and neglected to send her well wishes. We have promptly added ourselves to our own list.

Pop Art Painter Jamie Roxx (www.JamieRoxx.us) welcomes Anderson Cowan Wri/Dir (Groupers /Film Comedy | Drama 2019) to the Show!  www.groupersthemovie.com Writer / director Anderson Cowan’s controversial new feature film debut, “GROUPERS” will embark on a national theatrical release beginning September 27, distributor Global Digital Releasing announced. The film centers around two all-American high school jocks Brad and Dylan (Peter Mayer-Klepchick and Cameron Duckett) who are out for a night on the town when they are approached by the beautiful and seductive Meg (Nicole Dambro) at a local bar.  Ready for what they hope will be a night to remember, the guys are subsequently kidnapped, drugged and awaken tied up face to face in an abandoned pool in the middle of nowhere. Absurdity and insanity ensue as we learn that Orin (Jesse Pudles), Meg’s overly flamboyant brother has been the target of Brad and Dylan’s homophobic bullying and that Meg is actually a grad student who plans to perform a psychological and somewhat sadistic experiment on them as part of her thesis, which poses the question, “is homosexuality a choice”.

Whatever happened to Hollywood film comedies? Setting aside action comedies like the Deadpool films and Thor: Ragnarok, as well as animated comedy, why have there been so few great film comedies in the 2010's? We're talking films where the humor arises organically from dialogue, setups and punchlines, and situational as well as physical humor; you know, like all those good ones from Duck Soup through The Hangover. With few exceptions, like Spy, Bridesmaids and Trainwreck (some controversy on that last one), the kind of comedy that Hollywood became famous for seems all but gone. In this episode, our intrepid heroes from Team Vintage Sand try to figure out if and why this is so.

TV/Film writer/director/producer/showrunner Michael Addis is perhaps the most energetic guy Terence Michael has ever met.

They also both worked with Tom Green. - They guys went to numerous Sundance festivals together. - The #MeToo movement. How can we not? - The mastery of networking - Name dropping with Eddie Vedder, Jewel, Liev Schrieber, Kate Hudson, etc. - TruTV's Impractical Jokers - The movie "Heckler" starring Jamie Kennedy  - When to be a puppet master for your talent, when to let them go - Self-awareness and when talent is distracted by knowledge of the cameras - Sidney Pollack and acting. the best acting is not acting - The problem with yelling “action” on set - Why winning is anti-climatic in competition shows - Can Christian Bale do comey? - Being a peak performance and efficiency nut. - Morning and evening routines, meditation, distraction, scientology - The science of yawning  And that's all just the first 5 minutes. ***** PLEASE ENGAGE AND SUBSCRIBE Follow and like us on Facebook or Instagram On (desktop or phone)  iTunes  or iHeart Radio or GooglePlayMusic You can also contact us or learn more at terencemichael.com Terence Michael's book "PRODUCE YOURSELF: Apply Hollywood's Proven Formula To Become The Hero Of Your Life" is available everywhere.
