Click here to try it out!This week, the Dads dust off their morning suits and dive into Richard Curtis' runaway hit Four Weddings and a Funeral. Mike Newell's rom-com was the film that turned Hugh Grant into floppy-haired royalty, introduced us to Andie MacDowell's enigmatic Carrie, and made swearing at alarm clocks a national pastime.We talk through all four weddings (and, yes, the funeral), unpacking:Hugh Grant's career-defining “stammering English gent” routine.Andie MacDowell's aloof American elegance — and the film's messy romance plot.Simon Callow's scene-stealing turn and the surprisingly poignant funeral sequence.Rowan Atkinson's gloriously bungled first wedding gig as Father Gerald.Whether Richard Curtis' world of posh English eccentrics really reflects Britain… or just what Americans want us to be.We also get into how the film became the highest-grossing British movie of its day, launched Hugh Grant's tabloid-fuelled celebrity arc, and why it still works (even if “Love Actually” does not).Expect swearing, and the usual Bad Dads blend of dodgy impressions, film geekery, and questionable life lessons.

[School of Movies 2025] A major milestone in British cinema, pairing up dramatic director Mike Newell with comedy mainstay Richard Curtis. This one is easy to handwave off as fluffy and light, but it is a favourite of one of our psychology-specialising friends Doctor Hunter Mulcare, who joined us for Love Actually and specifically requested that when we covered this film, we have him on as a guest. The principle is simple, based on Curtis' own experience of attending dozens of weddings for various friends and acquaintances in a very short space of time, being propositioned by a mysterious lady whom he turned down... the afterimage of that road not taken stuck in his head, forming the anxiety of Hugh Grant's lead character, Charlie. And when it comes to this chap and his gaggle of unmarried friends one thing is certain regarding funerals and weddings... we may not get one, but we'll definitely get the other. This film is frank, hilarious, often painful and an accurately acerbic portrait of the British people. Certainly it struck home enough to make its budget back fifty times over, back in 1995. It remains special and a favourite of our too. Next week: We begin Marvel Season Guest: Dr Hunter Mulcare @realhuntermmm

This week, we hope you have a box of tissues handy, because here come the waterworks and the epic highs and lows of Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994). After a brief contemplation on whether Madison's one-eyed step-cat can wink, our hosts make a mad dash to the chapel alongside a star-studded cast including Hugh Grant, Andie MacDowell, John Hannah, Rowan Atkinson, and even more "Oh, wait, I know them!"-Brits. Between the laughs are genuine tear-jerker moments that lead to another thoughtful discussion on grief and how love inevitably comes with loss. (We promise it's not a downer, but you don't have to take our word for it...just press play!)Connect With UsFollow us on Instagram @loveatfirstscreening or send an email to loveatfirstscreening@gmail.comProduction Hosts: Chelsea Ciccone and Madison HillMusic: Good StephArtwork: Chelsea CicconeSocial Media: Marissa CicconeAbout the ShowAn examination of classic tropes and iconic characters pits connoisseur against cynic—one romantic comedy at a time. The cinematic world of love and laughter had rom-com enthusiast Madison head over heels from the time Harry met Sally. For genre skeptic Chelsea, however, it's been a grueling enemies-to-lovers plot. In Love at First Screening, Madison introduces Chelsea to all the fan-favorite love stories she's never wanted to watch. One friend's passion might be the other's displeasure, but doesn't love conquer all? Tune in every Wednesday to find out.

A reader wrote to Trish Murphy's Tell Me About It column looking for advice for a problem that she says is driving her crazy and taking over her life. In the past two years, she has been invited to eight weddings, eight hen parties and now baby showers too.Her main issue is the expense - her spending on average for a hen party and wedding tips €3,000 and she is trying to save for a house. And as a single person she finds the cost really difficult.And her friends are constantly trying to fix her up with a partner – which is more annoying than helpful.But why doesn't she simply say no. Can her friend group handle the truth? And why are Irish weddings so extravagant?Is the ability to say ‘no' a part of our Irish character? Why are we so reluctant to speak plainly?Murphy is a psychotherapist and she tells In the News how she answered the reader and why weddings are such a flashpoint for friendships.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Simon Callow is a critically acclaimed actor, director, author and star of classic movies such as Room with a View, Shakespeare in Love and Howards End. However, it's his part as Gareth in Four Weddings and a Funeral that many took to their hearts. Callow's failures include a childhood rejection that still haunts him, a play he directed which was savaged by the critics, painting and how he was ‘very annoyed' not to get the movie part of Amadeus despite having played it on stage.

Send us a textOn this episode of the Speaking of … College of Charleston podcast, in honor of Valentine's Day, we ask Colleen Glenn, associate professor and director of the College's Film Studies Program, to weigh in on her favorite romantic movies.We discuss some of the classes she teaches at the College, including Dreams and Movies and The Myth of the Road in American Cinema. As we shift to the upcoming holiday, she highlights her favorite romantic dramas, including Casablanca, An Affair to Remember, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, as well as romantic comedies like The Shop Around the Corner and Moonstruck.Glenn also talks about how rom-coms have evolved and now include a wider variety of perspectives.“Films have become more diverse in terms of representation,” says Glenn. “We have better representation of people of color – of different races and ethnicities – on screen today, and we also see different gender orientations and sexual orientations. So, the classic rom-com formula of 'boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy wins girl back' might now be 'boy meets boy' or 'girl-meets-girl.'"Glenn encourages moviegoers to watch movies in the theater instead of on their devices to get the full experience. She says romantic movies are just one of the many cultural systems that facilitate the “happily ever after” myth of love – and, if we're going to blame rom-coms, we have to throw music, theater and poetry into the mix.What's your favorite romantic movie to watch on Valentine's Day?

Το POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες συνεχίζει το ταξίδι του στις πιο διάσημες ταινίες του 1994. Μια χρονιά με τεράστιες ταινίες που αγαπήθηκαν από το κοινό, από τους κριτικούς και από τα βραβεία, με διαχρονικές επιτυχίες από το Forrest Gump και το Pulp Fiction, μέχρι το Chungking Express και την Κόκκινη Ταινία. Σήμερα, μετά από ένα διάλειμμα επιστρέφουμε στη σειρά και θυμόμαστε την τεράστια εμπορική επιτυχία του Τέσσερις Γάμοι και Μια Κηδεία, μια από τις διασημότερες ρομαντικές κομεντί των ‘90s – και όχι μόνο. Πώς έχει καταφέρει το Τέσσερις Γάμοι και Μια Κηδεία να διατηρήσει τη φήμη του ακόμα και 30 χρόνια μετά, όταν τα πάντα αναμφίβολα αμφισβητούνται, αναλύονται και γερνάνε; Γιατί η δομή του, με τους γάμους –και την κηδεία– του τίτλου, το μετατρέπει σε κάτι άφθαρτο στο χρόνο; Και πώς αυτή η δομή αναδεικνύει στο μέγιστο τα ταλέντα του σπουδαίου σεναριογράφου Richard Curtis (του Notting Hill και του Love Actually); Τι είναι πιο αληθινό σε αυτές τις συναντήσεις των κεντρικών ηρώων, και τι είναι πιο «εξωγήινα» κινηματογραφικό; Πώς δημιουργήθηκε μια ταινία που αψήφησε κάθε προσδοκία, φτάνοντας μέχρι τα Όσκαρ και καταφέρνοντας να γίνει μια από τις μεγαλύτερες επιτυχίες των ‘90s; Γιατί αυτή η ρομαντική κομεντί του 1994 είναι πιο όμορφη από τις περισσότερες σύγχρονες; Πώς η ταινία έστειλε το αστέρι του Hugh Grant στα ύψη, και γιατί μετά ο ηθοποιός δυσκολεύτηκε να αφήσει αυτή την επιτυχία πίσω του; Ποιος από όλο το φανταστικό ρόστερ β' ρόλων είναι ο αγαπημένος μας χαρακτήρας και γιατί; Πώς η ταινία προδίδει εν τέλει μόνο έναν ρόλο – αυτόν την Andie MacDowell; Αυτά και άλλα πολλά ακόμη στο POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες αυτής της εβδομάδας!

On episode 264 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade is joined by AwardsWatch Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello and AwardsWatch contributors Karen Peterson, Jay Ledbetter and Josh Parham to go back 30 years to take a look at the 67th Academy Awards, celebrating the films of 1994. Thirty years ago, it was Bob's year as Robert Zemeckis' Forrest Gump took home the Oscar for Best Picture, alongside Tom Hanks winning his second straight gold statue for back to back wins. It was one of the most commercially successful films of 1994 that went on to win the big prize, and is part of one of the most influential years from the 1990s. Films like Pulp Fiction, The Shawshank Redemption, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Three Colours: Red, Hoop Dreams, The Lion King, and more highlight a crossover of studio films blending success with indie darlings to make for a fascinating film year to talk about. In their in-depth discussion, the AW team talked about the film year of 1994, briefly discuss talk about Forrest Gump as a Best Picture winner, do an extensive conversation over the below the line categories and nominees for the year, and then the new version of the AW Shoulda Woulda Coulda game, where instead of individual replacements, they must decide as a group who the nominees and winners should be in the top eight categories. The rules of the game state they can only replace two of the nominees that year from each category, except in Best Picture, where the group could replace up to three films to make up the final set of five nominated films. Like past retrospective episodes, it was a fascinating, fun conversation including spirited debates, alliances, vote swinging, celebrating various movies, performances that aren't normally talked about and more that we all hope you enjoy. You can listen to The AwardsWatch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music and more. This podcast runs 2h28m. We will be back next week to discuss some of the latest 2024 film releases before the end of the year. Music: “Modern Fashion” from AShamaleuvmusic (intro), “B-3” from BoxCat Games Nameless: The Hackers RPG Soundtrack (outro).

He may have made a name for himself in light-hearted British rom-coms like "Four Weddings and a Funeral", "About a Boy" and "Notting Hill", but Hugh Grant has undergone a startling transformation over the last decade, rebranding himself as a character actor in darker roles. His latest outing in "Heretic" is certainly in that vein; FRANCE 24's culture editor Eve Jackson caught up with him at the film's Paris premiere, where he told her why playing the baddie is more fun. We also check out a new version of blockbuster musical "Les Misérables" as the production returns to the stage in Paris after more than 30 years, while photography exhibition "No Woman's Land" brings us the portraits and stories of the women living under what the UN has called "gender apartheid" since the Taliban came back to power in 2021.

Hugh Grant is most well known for his comedic and gentler performances in “Four Weddings and a Funeral” and “About A Boy.” That's not what you're getting from ol Hughie in this week's movie I'm reviewing, “Heretic.” In this movie he comes off like he'd be right at home being roommates with Hannibal Lecter. He plays the mysterious Mr. Reed, who two Mormon women visiting his home to perhaps convert him, are unfortunate enough to meet. The women are Sister Barnes and Sister Paxton, played respectively by Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East, and they early on suspect that their conversion attempt might turn into a survival game. Mr. Reed is no uninitiated, uninformed candidate for religious conversion. You realize that he's very well versed in all things religion. However, you also realize he's got other characteristics that are more sinister that the poor sisters just might have to worry about. What are those characteristics? Will the poor sisters make it out alive? Is it worth finding out in theaters? Check out this episode to find out! “Heretic” also stars Topher Grace, Elle Young, Julie Lynn Mortensen, Haylie Hansen, Elle McKinnon and Anesha Bailey.  Support the showFeel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook

After that, we'll explore the intriguing and stylish drama of Don't Worry Darling and take a light-hearted turn with the antics from Neighbours.Top 5 Wedding Scenes in Film and Television:The Godfather (1972) - The opening wedding scene sets the tone for this iconic film, showcasing the Corleone family's power dynamics and blending personal joy with business undercurrents. It's a masterclass in how a festive occasion can be layered with narrative depth.Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) - This film's exploration of various wedding styles and the emotions they evoke makes each ceremony memorable. It perfectly captures the humor, awkwardness, and tenderness of weddings, making it a classic in the romantic comedy genre.Game of Thrones - "The Red Wedding" (Season 3, Episode 9) - Perhaps one of the most shocking wedding scenes ever filmed, the Red Wedding was a pivotal moment in the series, filled with treachery and heartbreak, leaving a lasting impact on viewers and characters alike.Crazy Rich Asians (2018) - This film features a stunningly beautiful wedding scene that combines traditional elements with lavish modern details, set to a haunting cover of "Can't Help Falling in Love." It's visually captivating and emotionally charged, reflecting the film's themes of love and family expectations.My Big Fat Greek Wedding (2002) - This wedding is a joyful, chaotic celebration of Greek culture, packed with comedic moments and touching on themes of cultural identity and familial bonds.

The film combines stylish aesthetics with psychological suspense, exploring themes of empowerment, reality, and illusion. While there isn't a wedding scene central to its plot, the film's tension and mystery provide a backdrop for examining how individual desires and societal pressures can clash, much like the dynamics often present at a wedding.Switching gears, Neighbours often features weddings that are quintessential soap opera fare—full of drama, unexpected revelations, and sometimes, heart-warming moments. These episodes offer lighter, more dramatic interpretations of weddings, providing entertainment that spans generations of viewers.Whether you're a fan of lavish celebrations, dramatic twists, or the simple joy of a well-told love story, today's episode promises a fascinating look at the most memorable weddings in film and television.

Many of Prince's productions are inspired directly or indirectly by strong musical themes, hailing back to his first creation, the Emmy Award-winning NBC series, American Dreams.    

We are at the grand finale of our Four Weddings series, episode 10 (or as we lovingly refer to it episode X) and it's a doozy. We finally get to the last wedding and the big question is who's getting married? There are so many choices: is it Maya and Kash, Ainsley and Bryce, Duffy and Gemma or Tony and Andrew? We will find out together as well as discuss: the difference between a murder invite and a marriage invite, why mailing a letter is a dangerous sport and if your next wedding reception should include a music compilation from 'WOW That's Wedding Music 5 Featuring Little F*ckFace. We are very sad to see this series end but glad we experienced the mega happy ending so we hope you join us for the joy and festivities of Four Weddings and a Funeral Part 10.

We are in the home stretch! It's episode 9 of Four Weddings & a Funeral and this one is chock full of love and betrayal and more love. Maya and Kash finally get together, Duffy and Gemma finally get together, Bryce and Ainsley finally get together and lastly Ainsley gets her 'Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal moment' that we all knew was coming. In this episode: we caution our gentle listeners not to be judgemental Jehovah's, argue whether bridges are more important than immigrants (**hot take their both valuable), and invent an app where Idris Elba comes and rescues you from bad dates. We contemplated titling this episode 'The Shit Hits the Fan, Bruh!' which is super fitting but we hope you find out for yourself and listen to this week's episode of Four Weddings and a Funeral Part 9.

We are on Episode 8, (aka the Ocho) of Four Weddings and a Funeral, and it's chock full of 'Shhhh' secrets. Maya and Kash begin secretly seeing each other 'super casually', Duffy and Gemma secretly try to push Ainsley and Bryce into a relationship, Craig and Zara discover something that will change their relationship forever and we finally get our third wedding. In this episode we discuss: how 'put on a kettle' and 'stick around for tea' are not sexual innuendos, try to spread the good word of 'ODK' (but we're not going door to door), and we revisit Nacho-pocalypse-where flipping a plate of nachos is equivalent to flipping someone off. This is another redo because Corinne's Zoom recorder hates her but the second time's the charm and we hope you join us for Four Weddings and a Funeral part Ocho.

We are in the afterglow of our second wedding of the series but fear not gentle listeners the sh*t is about to hit the fan with our 7th episode of Four Weddings and a Funeral. Duffy is still unhinged and his hair is even more unhinged. Kash is pining for Maya and they're stuck working together in a community theater and Maya, well she's keeping secrets, and kissing everyone. In this episode we discuss: Corinne's anxiety around a locked door and how there's (very possibly) a dead person behind it, what exactly an LGBT-Rex is, and the wonderful Christmas album Adele and Sam Smith would make if we lived 50 years ago and they had to fake a marriage. And since the bulk of this episode is set in a theater there is (of course) singing of show tunes and definitely a lot of drama, so we hope you tune in for part 7 of the series.

It's sexy episode 6 of Four Weddings & a Funeral and we finally have a wedding! Guess who is getting married (in case you couldn't tell from our episode image) it's Craig & Zara! The formerly estranged couple is tying the knot, throwing the tackiest wedding in all of Great Britain and  We. Are. Here. For. It!  In this episode we discuss: why you don't cast Idris Elba as your best man, what your wedding would look like if you married Willy Wonka, and why your wedding cocktail shouldn't be Khalua and tomato juice. And if that's not incentive enough we hear Corinne give the 'lamest' yeah you've ever heard. But it's the only 'lame' thing in this episode so we hope you RSVP to attend episode 6, because we'd love to take you as our +1 to Four Weddings and a Funeral. 

We are halfway through our series Four Weddings & a Funeral, and who did Maya kiss?? If you listened to last week's episode you know...and probably feel as conflicted about it as we do. In this weeks snippet we get a front row seat to that kisses aftermath and: discuss Craig's questionable taste in apartment decor, ask who had more chemistry than Maya and Duffy (hint it's just about everyone), and chant our mantra 'friends that take drugs together stay together (we of course are not talking the illegal kind). Things are simmering in this week's recap and we hope you stand in polyester solidarity with us as we watch all the drama on Cinco de Four Weddings & a Funeral

We've finally hit it folks, part 4 of Four Weddings & a Funeral (aka the funeral portion). And although the episode was on the somber side we had so many highlights and laughs we truly did put the FUN in funeral. The somber bit was Gemma and Giles (and the rest of the Fabulous 4) said goodbye to Quentin. The FUN bits were: when we proposed doing 'The Hustle' to bagpipes as a wedding march, discussed British slang at length (like twat, wanker and fanny), or when Corinne graciously explained how washing machines worked and Tamara graciously explained back how rich people spend their money. The bits of information we give in this episode are gems and we hope they bring you a few bright spots in this darker chapter of Four Weddings and a Funeral Part Four. 

We are three deep into our 4 weddings and a funeral series and things are falling apart with the fierce-some foursome. Ainsley gets cut off by her parents, Maya gets harassed by her new employer, Craig is still pining after Zara and Duffy can't get out of his own way to find love. In addition to the drama we discuss: how often is the proper amount to masturbate, if Peter Dinklage is so talented he could act in any role (including an NBA star), and why we both yell 'Not Haroon!!!' In near unison. So far we've only had a wedding but (spoiler) a funeral is not too far away so stay tuned and see who kicks the bucket in this episode of Four Weddings and a funeral.

It's our second exciting installment of the Four Weddings & A Funeral saga, and last time we were left with a cliffhanger-Kash was about to leave Ainsley at the altar. In this episode we will find out: if they went through with the wedding, if Maya will get her head out of her ass and leave Senator McCheatyPants and if Craig and Zara will survive his 'secret' love child? In addition to our awesome recap we also discuss: bad ODK business ideas like Body Scented Body Wash, whether relationships can be built on great sex alone and give pro dating tips like 'how you can give your dog a bone but you shouldn't give your dog walker a bone'. We are only half a failed wedding into this series but will RSVP to all the drama and hope you'll attend part deux of Four Weddings & a Funeral with us.

We are back Gentle Listeners! We're slightly fresher than before our vacation and doing something a little different. For the next few weeks we are recapping a rom-com series called Four Weddings & A Funeral. This Hulu show has 10 episodes and we'll be going over one, every week. In the first episode we meet the main cast of friends: Maya, Ainsley, Craig and Duffy as well as the colorful characters that are in their orbit. We find out that Maya inadvertently falls in love with her bff Ainsley's boyfriend, Duffy attempts to proclaim his love to Maya and Craig finds out he's a daddy and not the kind his high maintenance girlfriend wants. We peppered this episode with commentary as well as some accidental beauty tips such as: how to easily disguise a dripping wet bra filled with aquarium rocks, how chlorinated hair works and how to escape really aggressive stylists that are dying to get their hands on your locks. Hopefully you got the memo that we were on break but if not we hope that you're not mad at us for being gone. But we are back to business as usual (kind of)

"Parenthood", "Strangers On A Train", "Four Weddings and a Funeral", "Family Guy", and "The Saint". No it's not the films leaving Netflix this month, rather it's the topics of discussion on this week's brief, disjointed, somewhat chaotic, trans European pod. With Dan dialling in from a substandard German hotel room with tales of darts players and sharing Paul Cook anecdotes on a train, we remember Tommie Gorman and Joe Heron, analyse the European draws, and listen to Johnny mull over the League of Ireland journeys that fatherhood will bring him on . Our "Usual Suspects" of Collar & Cuff, Future Ticketing, Rascals Brewery and Lilly's Childcare continue to support a show with hotter takes than Padraig Amond's face after an afternoon on the sunbeds. So buckle up for a quickfire blast of stream of consciousness podcasting, yes, it's episode 20 and it's pure Hollywood!
