If you win "Best Feature" at a film festival, but the festival doesn't give you a trophy, can you make your own trophy? Or is that too cringe? Spouses and filmmakers Kaye and Mariel disagree! Their film THE REBRAND (trailer here) won several film festival awards! But most of the festival organizations did not provide trophies, or any physical representation of the win for that matter. Kaye wants to design and 3-D print her own trophies to commemorate the occasion, and to serve as a reminder that "they like her They really like her!" But, while Mariel is proud of the work they have done and the awards they received, she's also trying to rely less on external validation. Who's right? Who's wrong?

Lo scorso weekend a Wimbledon, durante le finali, ha attirato l'attenzione l'inaspettata presenza di Ali G, l'iconico personaggio di Sacha Baron Cohen, che sembra pronto a tornare in sala con un suo nuovo film. Intanto, è partito a Giffoni l'ormai tradizionale Film Festival dedicato al cinema per ragazzi (e non solo...). Tra le novità, è stato presentato "Oceania", la versione live action dell'omonimo film animato (noto in giro per il mondo con il titolo "Moana"). Cogliamo l'occasione per fare un viaggio tra i tanti (tantissimi!) cartoni animati che negli ultimi anni sono stati rifatti da attori in carne ed ossa. Warner Bros. ha pubblicato il trailer di "Digger": un Tom Cruise completamente trasformato interpreta l'anziano magnate del petrolio Digger Rockwell nel nuovo film di Alejandro G. Inarritu. Proprio in occasione dell'uscita del trailer, la rubrica "5 cose che non potete non sapere" è dedicata alla vita e alla carriera dell'attore. Infine, tra i film da non perdere al cinema c'è "L'Odissea" di Christopher Nolan, mentre tra le poche uscite della prossima settimana si segnalano "Deep Water", con Aaron Eckhart e Ben Kingsley e il francese "Terapia di famiglia" con Christian Clavier.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
SAI: DISASTER gehört zu den Thrillern, bei denen das Publikum mehr weiß als die Polizei – auch wenn es den Zuschauern nicht einfach gemacht wird: Der nonlineare Struktur und die Vielzahl der Protagonisten führen zu einer Überforderung und Irritation, die sich dann Stück für Stück auflöst. Roter Faden ist ein Mann, der als Serienmörder unerkannt bleibt. Kaum ein Polizist erkennt die gemeinsamen Elemente der Taten. Auch wenn die Dramaturgie verkopft wirken mag, die Atmosphäre, die Orte, die Inszenierung und die Darsteller:innen sind großartig. Am stärksten in Erinnerung bleibt ein faszinierender Täter, der gleichzeitig abstoßend und charismatisch ist. Wenn er seinen Opfern nahekommt, ist die Bedrohung fast unerträglich intensiv. Im Podcast direkt nach dem Film auf Nippon Connection 2026 vergleichen wir SAI: DISASTER mit MEMORIES OF MURDER und DAS VERPRECHEN von Dürrenmatt. Am Mikrofon mit ganz unterschiedlichen Eindrücken: Markus von translate or die, Alex von den Abspannguckern, André, Andras, Hendrik und Thomas.

Anna Jobin weiss nach der Schule nicht, was sie beruflich machen soll. Sie reise gern, erzählt sie dem Berufsberater. Der schlägt vor, sie solle Flight Attendant werden. Pilotin erwähnt er nicht. Kaum hat sie bei der Swissair angefangen, folgt das Grounding. Im Herbst 2001 steht alles still. Jobin, die für den Job nach Zürich gezogen ist, findet als Filmfan eine neue Aufgabe: Sie arbeitet bei einem Filmverleih. Regelmässig reist sie zum Filmfestival nach Cannes. Dort schaut sie Weltpremieren an und lässt sich von der Festivalmelodie verzaubern: dem «Aquarium» aus Camille Saint-Saëns' «Le Carnaval des animaux». Sobald sie genug Geld gespart hat, bricht sie nach Asien auf. Über die Türkei reist sie in den Iran, lernt ein bisschen Persisch und beschliesst, nach ihrer Rückkehr an der Universität Freiburg zu studieren. Doch Jobin will nicht irgendetwas studieren, sondern so viel wie möglich. Ihre Neugier treibt sie an. Sie wählt Soziologie, Volkswirtschaft und Informatik– um, wie sie sagt, die Brücke zwischen Mensch und Technik zu schlagen. Während des Studiums erlebt sie den Aufstieg der sozialen Medien, gründet eine eigene Firma, baut Webseiten für Kundinnen und Kunden und gibt Schulungen. Sie hat die Nase früh im Wind. Heute forscht die Assistenzprofessorin an der Universität Freiburg zu den sozialen Dimensionen künstlicher Intelligenz. Wie sie trotz Uni-Karriere bodenständig bleibt, warum Loslassen für sie funky klingt und wieso soziale Medien unsere Kommunikation nicht zwangsläufig verschlechtern, erzählt Anna Jobin in «Musik für einen Gast» bei Simon Leu. Die Musiktitel: - Camille Saint-Saëns: L'aquarium, aus Le carnaval des animaux (Emmanuel Pahud & Friends) - Googoosh: Komakam kon - Züri West: Römer - Anderson Paak: The Dreamer - Nikka Costa: Like a Feather

Two dear friends and Film Festival colleagues attempt to bridge the gaps of their long-distance relationship — and their own film educations — through a bi-weekly screening and discussion project of the gap films that have eluded their cinematic discovery.In this episode, Scott and Jack finally chase down Limite — Mário Peixoto's legendary 1931 Brazilian silent experimental film, a long-lost cinematic holy grail that spent decades languishing in obscurity while earning the devotion of cinephiles (and the admiration of Orson Welles). Through fragmented memories, breathtaking visual poetry, and the haunting image of three strangers adrift at sea, Limite feels less like a film than a dream recovered from the depths of cinema history—a great white whale of world cinema that rewards every ounce of the obsession required to find it. You DON'T want to miss this piece of film history- or the discussion about it!Follow Blindspotting on Facebook and Buzzsprout.
Film Festival: https://buytickets.at/thedopeyfoundation/2216905 Patreon: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast This week on Dopey Greatest Hits,! Dave dusts off one of the biggest episodes in the show's history as the Dopey Patreon votes Nikki Sixx of Mötley Crüe to the top of the poll. Before the interview, Dave celebrates Ray Brown's legendary “Home Sweet Heroine,” reflects on working Step Eight with a sponsee, and shares another gratitude story involving his father. Then Jules the Cocaine Bear delivers a classic disaster tale involving cocaine, drunken party crashing, a switchblade, British police, and a miraculous escape from drug charges. Kimber King joins the show to react to comments from her replay episode, discuss Wednesday Zoom antics, laugh about bizarre drug combinations, promote Safe Spot, and celebrate the Knicks' championship run. The two revisit old stories and joke about everything from meth vapes to foot fetishes and Suboxone flavors. The centerpiece of the episode is Dave's epic conversation with Nikki Sixx. Nikki discusses twenty-plus years of sobriety, fatherhood, moving to Wyoming, writing The First 21, and how creativity replaced addiction. He opens up about childhood trauma, being introduced to drugs at an early age, selling “chocolate mescaline,” discovering heroin, and surviving the darkest years chronicled in The Heroin Diaries. Nikki reflects on Mötley Crüe's forty-year journey, his friendships with Aerosmith and the Rolling Stones, the monster of addiction that never dies, and why he continues to share his story in hopes of helping others. The interview finishes with a rapid-fire rock and roll quiz before Dave signs off after his dog nearly attacks an Amazon delivery guy. PLUS MORE!!!!! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

As a very imaginative child growing up, he became interested in how films were made, but it wasn't until 1999 when he was invited to P.A. on an independent film set, which prompted him to write the screenplay, TOOT'S & BLOW'S, in 2001. As a self-taught filmmaker, Deri produced three critically sought-out films: Welcome To The Southside, The Party Line, and Love Bones. In each of these films, Deri deals with personal themes of Love & Sacrifice.

We open with a Knicks comeback story and ties it to recovery ("you can't quit"), then announces the Dopey Film Festival and shouts out the Baldini family. After reading listener comments and a wild listener email from "Stan the Man" in London (a multi-day cocaine/orgy/LSD bender), Dave plays a Greatest Hits episode featuring Kimber King — a returning guest and harm reduction hotline worker who became known for shooting fentanyl into her neck and calling for help. Kimber's interview traces her full addiction arc: drinking at 12, Adderall at 14, cocaine with her mom and brother, her brother's brutal murder at 24 (she was 17), heroin at 22, meth in rural Georgia, an Aryan Brotherhood compound, a "magical nasal spray cocktail" of fentanyl/coke/ketamine/Xanax, multiple overdoses, evictions, a blind boyfriend who stole her car, and finally — surrender at a detox intake desk, sobbing and telling the truth. Now two years sober with a baby daughter and her mom living with her, Kimber works in harm reduction and crisis intervention. ALL THAT AND MOREEEEEEEEEE! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
