La vie est belle (It's a Wonderful Life), de Frank Capra sorti en 1946 fait partie des indétrônables du cinéma. Il est à avoir vu au moins une fois dans sa vie. Cʹest un des GRANDS classiques, au même titre que Citizen Kane, Casablanca ou Vertigo. La preuve, le film figure à la 11e place du Top 100 de l'American Film Institute. La Vie est belle est une comédie dramatique avec James Stewart, Donna Reed, Lionel Barrymore. Cʹest lʹhistoire dʹun homme, George Bailey, à la veille de Noël, qui veut se suicider. Il est sauvé par un ange qui lui montre comment serait le monde sʹil nʹétait pas né. La vie est belle sʹouvre et se clôt comme un conte de Noël. Mais il nʹest pas aussi boy-scout ou rose bonbon quʹon veut bien le décrire. Il tient plutôt de lʹacte de foi quasi désespéré mêlé de réalisme acide. " Cʹest mon meilleur film ", disait le réalisateur. Le plus Capra de tous les Capra ! Dans ce film, Capra pose un regard réaliste mais plein dʹespoir sur ses contemporains. On le sait, la vie nʹa pas toujours été facile pour ce fils dʹémigrés siciliens illettrés. Et puis, Frank Capra est parti à la guerre, en Europe. Il en revient désabusé, secoué. Mais il a toujours foi en lʹhumain, en ses capacité à rebondir, à se réinventer. Frank Capra, cʹest le roi des comédies, à fort message social. Eduqué par le cinéma muet, Capra sait bien que ce sont les conflits, les contrastes qui font rouler une bonne fiction. La cruauté ne lui est pas étrangère. Il sait passer du noir au rose, et va faire de son conte merveilleux une symphonie polymorphe. Jamais Capra ne sʹest autant éloigné de la bonne humeur pour y revenir in extremis. La vie est belle est un film boudé à sa sortie, mais par les biais des rediffusions à la télévision, il va devenir un film culte !

Former Entertainment Weekly editor Mark Harris was an editor and journalist for publications like The New York Times, Fortune, The Guardian, and Slate, until he dared himself to submit a book proposal on his 40th birthday. These days, he’s best known for his entertainment-based books, such as Pictures at a Revolution: Five Movies and the Birth of the New Hollywood, Five Came Back: A Story of Hollywood and the Second World War, and his latest book, Mike Nichols: A Life. In this interview, Harris talks about his career as an editor, how he chooses subjects worthy of a book such as Director Mike Nichols (The Graduate, Charlie Wilson’s War), how he uses the Bird by Bird approach, and how he and his husband Tony Kushner (Munich, Lincoln) encourage each other as writers of different mediums. Currently, Harris is working with Turner Classic Film Festival to introduce Nichol’s first movie, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966) and a documentary called Nichols and May, a story about Nichols’ life before he became a Director, as an improv comedy group.

This past Friday saw the release of Five Came Back, a three-part documentary series adapted from Mark Harris' great book "Five Came Back: A Story of Hollywood and the Second World War", which recounts the story of five legendary Hollywood directors - Frank Capra, John Ford, John Huston, George Stevens, William Wyler - who left their careers behind and spent World War II making documentaries and propaganda for the U.S. military, in the process creating a series of films which shaped how audiences understood the war, and marked a significant development in the history of documentary filmmaking. The experience also took its toll on the filmmakers, leaving them scarred and having a profound impact on their work and lives. Ed is joined by fellow podcaster and writer Noel Thingvall (@NoelCT) to discuss the series, the works of the directors profiled, and Five Came Back's place within the Netflix catalogue.  00:00:00 - 00:02:52 - Intro 00:02:53 - 00:56:27 - Ed & Noel discuss Five Came Back 00:56:28 - 01:01:51 - SRS Recommends & Outro

Can you imagine if immediately after 9/11, filmmakers like Scorsese, Spielberg, Coppola, Fincher or Apatow would enlist in the military to make films about the war on terror?  Films that would show America at war against its Taliban and Middle East enemies.  Well with  the exception of Clint Eastwood, that's pretty hard to imagine.Yet in WWII, that's exactly what happened.  Filmmakers John Ford, William Wyler, Frank Capra, John Houston, and George Stevens would in various ways, join with the military in the war effort.  The work that they did, the impact it had on them personally and on the country, would forever change the workings of Hollywood. It emphasized the importance of film as entertainment and as an art form, as well as how Americans viewed war.  In that sense, those images still shape our perceptions today as they are a part of our cultural and political DNA.Mark Harris takes us though the war work of these great Directors in Five Came Back: A Story of Hollywood and the Second World WarMy conversation with Mark Harris:  

It's a big day here at Mousterpiece Cinema HQ, as we're celebrating our third anniversary with our 150th episode! Yes, friends, it's really been three years since Josh started a podcast about Disney movies all on his own by ranting about Cars 2. Things have changed a ton, of course, since those halcyon days, and today, we've got a corker of a show for you. Josh and Gabe couldn't help but ring the bell for the 1996 animated adaptation of Victor Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre Dame, which might be the most underrated film of the Disney Renaissance. And they're joined in their conversation by Grantland/Entertainment Weekly writer Mark Harris, who's also the author of the new film history book Five Came Back: A Story of Hollywood and The Second World War. Come for the discussion about Quasimodo's struggle for acceptance as being an encoded gay story, and stay for Josh's mini-interview with Mark during the Audible section of the show. This episode's a big one, so check it out!

During World War II, five of Hollywood's star directors, whose names had been behind some of the biggest box office hits and Oscar winners, dropped their entire careers to go to war. Their goal was not to fight, but to document. Besides being the only Oscar columnist worth reading, Mark Harris is now the author or Five Came Back: A Story of Hollywood and the Second World War. In this podcast, Mark and Peter sit down to discuss this essential read, examining the relationship between Hollywood and the government, the problem of realism and re-creations, and the pains felt by men who returned to a system that seemed to have forgotten them. Finally, the two discuss William Wyler's The Best Years of Our Lives, a universal drama that has numerous touches of the director's own war experience. 0:00-1:35 Opening2:33-8:06 Establishing Shots - William Freidkin's Sorcerer8:50-1:26:40 Deep Focus - Mark Harris1:27:53-1:46:58 Double Exposure - The Best Years of Our Lives (William Wyler)1:47:02-1:48:41 Close
