In this episode, Anna and Derek chat about how this early work from Michael Mann set the stage for his future films, if Frank really needed that last score, and much more during their discussion of the James Caan starrer Thief (1981). Connect with '80s Movie Montage on Facebook, Bluesky or Instagram! It's the same handle for all three... @80smontagepod.Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there's that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.We'd love to hear from you! Send us a text message.

Mon, 30 Jun 2025 06:00:00 +0000 https://efm-industry-insights.podigee.io/77-arthouse-that-works-distribution-insights-from-the-nostradamus-report d760bd936ba823e65c56505befcf8d2c Industry Insights – The EFM Podcast is presented by the European Film Market of the Berlinale. Hosted by media industry analyst Johanna Koljonen, it delves deep into the evolving strategies for distributing Arthouse cinema and reaching international audiences beyond traditional channels. The 2025 Nostradamus Report paints a picture of an Arthouse landscape at a crossroads - no longer resisting change, but learning to resist with intention. This episode explores what that means for the way we develop, position, and connect films to audiences in a world where old models no longer deliver. From overlooked festival momentum to shifting roles in the value chain, it's a wake-up call for those clinging to linear paths. Distribution emerges as both the weak link and the untapped opportunity, especially for non-mainstream titles. The conversation challenges industry metrics, redefines what success can look like, and hints at a future where even small films can make a wide impact, just not in the usual ways. Eva Esseen Arndorff is the CEO and co-owner of TriArt Film, a leading Swedish arthouse distributor. With a background in Film Studies, Media and Communication, and Business Administration from Stockholm University, she began her career at Triangelfilm in 2000. After working as a film consultant for companies including Sonet and PAN Vision, she became Head of Acquisitions at PAN Vision in 2008. Since 2011, she has led TriArt Film, which also operates the streaming platform TriArt Play and publishes the film magazine Point of View. Huub Roelvink is the owner and managing director of Cherry Pickers Filmdistributie, a Benelux distribution company releasing approximately 12 to 15 titles per year. Recent titles include My Favourite Cake, No Other Land, Hard Truths and Good One, among many others. Before founding the company in 2016 Huub was managing director of Imagine Filmdistributie Netherlands and founder of Cinema Delicatessen, a distributor specialized in documentaries. He also has extensive experience in cinema programming and exploitation, starting his career as a student in the Kriterion cinema in Amsterdam, and subsequently programming various arthouses and being managing director of arthouse LUX in Nijmegen. Huub holds a Masters in Social Anthropology from the University of Amsterdam. Katarina Tomkova (Producer, kaleidoscope & Punkchart films) Katarina has worked for the Slovak Film Institute during 2009 – 2015. Since 2015, she has worked on several films acclaimed at the festival circuit, including Servants (Berlinale Encounters), 107 Mothers (Venice IFF - Best Screenplay Orizzonti), and Photophobia (Venice IFF – Europa Cinemas Label Award at Giornate degli Autori). As a tutor, she collaborates with the MIDPOINT Institute and the Thessaloniki IFF's market Agora. She is an EAVE Producers Workshop graduate. In 2021, she was the Slovak Producer on the Move. The host Johanna Koljonen is a media analyst, broadcaster, and experience designer. She is the author of the Göteborg Film Festival's annual Nostradamus Report on the near future of the screen industries, which is in its 11th year. She lectures internationally on changes in the media sector, and on participation and narrative design. Her background is in public service broadcasting; in 2011, she received the Swedish Grand Journalism Award in the Innovator category. This podcast episode has been developed in collaboration with the Göteborg Film Festival's Nostradamus initiative. The 2025 Nostradamus Report Reality/Resistance is available as a free download. The Berlinale's European Film Market is the first international film market of the year, where the film industry starts its business. Industry Insights - The EFM Podcast puts a spotlight on highly topical and trendsetting industry issues, thereby creating a compass for the forthcoming film year.

This mini episode of the podcast marks the re-opening of Filmhouse, Edinburgh's beloved independent cinema which was forced to close in October 2022 when its parent company went into administration. After the closure, a crowdfunding campaign was set up and support also came in from the Scottish and UK governments. The campaign to re-open Filmhouse as a brand-new organisation was spearheaded by four former Filmhouse employees Ginnie Atkinson, David Boyd, James Rice and Rod White.In November 2023, David and Rod joined host Dr Pasquale Iannone on a special episode of Edinburgh Film Podcast (EFP 39) where they spoke of their long associations with the cinema and their plans for the re-opening. At that time, there was a certain amount of optimism, but the re-opening was by no means a done deal. This week - more than 30 months after Filmhouse closed - the doors have finally re-opened.In this episode, Pasquale catches up with Programme Director Rod White - they discuss the new screens (including a brand-new fourth screen), the revamped cafe bar as well as the opening programme of films.

06/23 Hour 4: Entertainment Page - 1:00 EB's Commercial Film Study (Wizards Edition) - 17:00 Junkies Break Down EB's Sleeping Problems - 32:00

From 06/23 Hour 4: The Sports Junkies break down a big NBA prospect ahead of the draft.

Hello wonderful people!   You can follow the podcast on Threads, Instagram and Bluesky.   Thank you so much to Patreon subscribers! If you would like to support the podcast and get ad free versions you can subscribe for $3 or £3 a month at https://www.patreon.com/everyscififilm   The idea behind the podcast is we all watch the film (with film choices and where to watch given in the show notes of the previous episode) and then you can listen to the podcast after two weeks and learn more about the film.   It has been brought to my attention (thank you, Olivia!) that sometimes a synopsis might be very helpful to know what on earth is going on. It seems not everyone is watching these films before listening. So, I have added more information further below. As always there are spoilers ahead!   The Tingler (1959) was released in cinemas with the expectation that cinema owners would install “Percepto!” under certain seats. This was a small electric buzzing device that would be triggered during key moments of the film.   Director William Castle was known for these kinds of interactive, promotional gimmicks and had used them many times before. The tradition of “Ballyhoo” in cinema is an old one and involves enticing audiences to the movies with various types of marketing stunts.   Vincent Price plays the hammy lead with a gravitas very few people can pull off. I found this to be a thoroughly enjoyable film despite the lack of “Percepto!” in my own home.   As always, I am lucky to have two excellent guests joining me.   Scott Higgins is Professor of Film at Wesleyan University as well as being the Curator of the Wesleyan Cinema Archives.   Matthew Rule Jones is a senior Lecturer in Film Studies at the University of Exeter.   Chapters 00:00 Intro 01:57 William Castle the King of Ballyhoo 04:21 William Caste's background 10:19 The death of Florence Lawrence and movie myth-making 13:50 The Avant Garde, The Grand Guinol and The Surrealists 18:40 Red blood in a black and white film 21:50 A brink film: LSD, insanity and the impending Psycho 25:53 Loose ends and ethical loopholes 29:03 Vincent Price as the part-time mad scientist 33:33 The bad wife 34:57 The Tingler, teen audiences and a screaming crescendo 40:07 Manly screaming and scream queens 42:33 The silent era references 46:32 Legacy 52:14 Recommendations   NEXT EPISODE! Next episode we will be talking about The Wasp Woman from 1959 directed by Roger Corman. I believe the film is in the public domain and is easily available online for free or to buy and rent on many streaming services.   It is also available on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpPAN6frZmU   Synopsis of The Tingler The Tingler begins with the director William Castle addressing the audience about how they are about to experience a tingling sensation that no audience has ever experienced before. Relief can be gained by screaming!   The story involves Dr Warren Chapin (played by Vincent Price) investigating the cause of why some inmates are frightened to death before their executions. A man names Olly Higgins visit Dr Chapin and tells him that it is his brother-in-law that Chapin is doing an autopsy on. Chapin is convinced there is something physical in the body that causes death by fear!     Olly Higgins runs a silent cinema with his deaf-mute wife Martha.   Warren Chapin is  obsessed with his work and ignores his wife who has decided to spend her time cavorting with other men! Her sister Lucy is good, kind and the epitome of idealised 1950s femininity. Lucy is in love with Dr Chapin's assistant David.   In his experiments Dr Chapin pretends to kill his wife to scare her, tests LSD on himself (a relatively new drug that is in 1959 legal and used by psychologists) and experiments on animals and potentially on Martha Higgins with LSD although that part isn't really clarified.   In an x-ray of his wife (who he has frightened into believing she's dead – we can't expect things to make sense) Dr Chapin discovers there is a long caterpillar-like creature that hugs the spine when people are terrified.   Dr Chapin visits Martha Higgins to give her some medication which may or may not be LSD. After this she experiences many frightening experiences including a bath filled with red blood (in a black and shite film). Martha is terrified of blood and collapses.     Olly Higgins brings his wife Martha to Dr Chapin. She is very sick or dead. Dr Warren declares Martha dead but after she moves he gets permission to find out why. He discovers and extracts the tingler!   Shenanigans commence involving a murderous wife, an escaped tingler in the silent cinema and Martha's revenge!

The focus of this 60th episode of Edinburgh Film Podcast is Wanda, the only feature film directed by American actor-filmmaker Barbara Loden. Released in 1970, the film is set in rural Pennsylvania and tells of a working class woman (Loden) who leaves her husband and young children for a life on the road. She eventually drifts into a fraught, uneasy relationship with petty thief Norman Dennis (Michael Higgins) as he plans a bank robbery. Joining host Dr Pasquale Iannone to talk about Wanda is Dr Elena Gorfinkel, author of a new book on the film which is part of the long-running BFI Film Classics series. Elena is Reader in Film Studies at King's College London. Specialising in underground and independent cinema, her many publications include the 2017 volume Lewd Looks: American Sexploitation Cinema in the 1960s. Her articles and book chapters include pieces on filmmakers such as Andy Warhol, Doris Wishman, Kira Muratova and Kelly Reichardt. Elena is also the curator of a major season currently running at London's BFI Southbank titled Wanda and Beyond: The World of Barbara Loden. In their detailed, wide-ranging conversation, Elena tells Pasquale about her first encounter with Wanda and how she approached the writing of her new book. Discussion then moves on to the film itself, before turning to the curation process for the BFI Loden season. Wanda (2025) is published by Bloomsbury and is out now. The BFI Southbank season Wanda and Beyond: The World of Barbara Loden runs throughout the month of June. For more details, please see the BFI website.

If you would like to support the podcast and get ad free versions you can subscribe for $3 or £3 a month at https://www.patreon.com/everyscififilm   As usual there are spoilers ahead!   This film is silly. And I love that for me. I hope many of you will enjoy something much more lighthearted after the heavy topic of nuclear annihilation from the last episode.   Teenagers from Outer Space (1959) was the work of Tom Graeff who wrote, produced, directed, edited and acted in the film.     As previously mentioned, the film is silly but I found it very enjoyable. Stilted dialogue that is often out of sync, special effects that are very simple and yet effective, space fascists with rayguns and a sweet hearted rebel finding his way in the unfamiliar new world of Earth. How many sci-fi tropes can you possibly fit into a film made on the tightest of budgets?   The film made me laugh a lot which admittedly isn't too difficult to do but it was a much needed laugh after the beautifully bleak misery of On the Beach.   I am not the only person who has a soft spot for this film. I am very lucky to be joined by two wonderful guests who are definitely avid fans of this alien invasion adventure.   Marc Longenecker is an Associate Professor of the Practice of Film Studies at Wesleyan University.   Blair Davis is a Professor of Media and Cinema Studies at DePaul University. He has written a lot about cinema and comics and including the book The Battle for the Bs: 1950s Hollywood and the Rebirth of Low-Budget Cinema.   Chapters 00:00 Intro 02:37 Why do you love this film? 08:41 Distribution and reception 12:48 “Bad” film 18:15 The tragic life of Tom Graeff 25:53 Derek the hero: the rebel anti-fascist with daddy issues 33:10 Special effects 38:17 Chekov's Gargon: the lobster monster!          40:58 Space adventures on Earth and teen appeal 44:28 Thor!

I did really like the film and have to admit that perhaps I have been giving it a hard time.  Perhaps because it gave me a hard time! There are moments of fun, flirtation and enjoyment but it is all within the backdrop of undeniable impending annihilation. I am definitely someone who prefers some depth and thematic discussion of the ethics of humanity in my science fiction (as well as some good old pew-pew led heroism) but I did find this film to be so very sad. Luckily I have two absolutely wonderful guests to keep me company and help me keep a stiff upper lip in the face of doom. Thomas Doherty is a professor of American Studies at Brandeis University, he is a cultural historian with a special interest in Hollywood cinema on which he has written extensively. John Wills is a Professor of American Media and Culture at University of Kent. He has written lots about popular culture including 1950s American and Nuclear film. Chapters 00:00 Introduction 02:10 Nuclear war is apparently not fun 08:09 Not your usual sci-fi 09:21 Scope, scale and cultural impact 13:43 We are ALL doomed 15:58 Gregory & Ava: Dwight & Moira 20:51 Fred Astaire as the scientist! 23:45 Peter and Mary contemplate suicide and murder 27:27 Love in the time of annihilation 30:03 Submarine: Signals and San Francisco 36:58 The Final Ferrari Race 39:30 Suicide 46:16 Legacy 49:09 Recommendations Correction:  At 9:54 Tom mentions the film has not been revived but a joint US-Australia TV film released in 2000 was made. NEXT EPISODE! Next episode we will be discussing Teenagers from Outer Space (1959). It is a low budget indie film which seems to fit into the “bad film” category and so will not be for everyone! But I found it a relief full of lots of sci-fi tropes, funny parts, a coherent plot and likeable characters. The film is in the public domain. You can watch it on the Internet Archive website and there is also a weirdly colourised version of the film on YouTube where you can also find the Mystery Science Theatre 3000 episode on the film. I found that very funny too.

In this episode, Anna and Derek discuss subtle Bill Murray vs. over-the-top Bill Murray, if it's okay to shave someone's head without first telling them and much more during their discussion of Ivan Reitman's Stripes (1981). Connect with '80s Movie Montage on Facebook, Bluesky or Instagram! It's the same handle for all three... @80smontagepod.Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there's that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.We'd love to hear from you! Send us a text message.

The movie musical died a long, slow death a long time ago. Right? Well, except that there’s Wicked. And Spielberg’s West Side Story. And Hamilton and In the Heights and Tick, Tick… Boom! And Encanto and Moana 2 and Mufasa. Oh, and Elvis and A Complete Unknown. And those are just from the last five years. And I could keep going. This hour, a long look at the long-dead movie musical. Long live the movie musical.
