A long but worthwhile episode this week as we dive into the recent Running Man adaption from Edgar Wright. It got us thinking about other films this year that have aspired to thoughts about political revolution and fallen short. We cover parts of Wicked: For Good, One Battle After Another, and Caught Stealing and discuss what it means when these movies use revolutionary language and imagery, the role of Black people (women specifically) in these films, and much more!    We've got a few last episodes before the year ends, including Francis Ford Coppola's insane musical Finian's Rainbow and our 2025 year end wrap up!

Sixteen years after the previous film (The Godfather Part II) in this saga won him Oscars for Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Picture...Oscar-winning legend Francis Ford Coppola (Apocolypse Now, Bram Stoker's Dracula, The Conversation) returned to both co-write and direct this final entry in the beloved sage of The Corleone Family.  And this time around even though the film was nominated for seven Oscars including Best Picture, it didn't win any.....and the consensus was that it was below the quality for the first two despite including acclaimed performances by its three main stars including Al Pacino (who returned to play Michael Corleone), the late, great Diane Keaton (who returned to play Kay Corleone), and Oscar-nominated Andy Garcia who played Michael's nephew Vincent.  Infact, it was considered by many to be by far the weakest film in the trilogy.  So thirty years later during an extended COVID lock-down, Coppola decided re-edit Part III and by the end of 2020, a newly reworked version was released to both theaters and streaming.  Celebrating The Godfather Part III's 35th Anniversary, we will review this latest version to find out how or IF it improves upon the original version released on Christmas of 1990.   Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Este é o último episódio do ano e desta vez voltamos a falar sobre Francis Ford Coppola. Fred Almeida recebe os amigos Fábio Rockenbach (curso "A Experiência do Cinema") e Rafael Amaral (blogue "Palavras de Cinema") para debater o brilhante "A Conversação" (The Conversation, 1974) produção mais pessoal do cineasta e do mesmo ano em que ele lançaria um de seus filmes de maior sucesso, a segunda parte da trilogia "O Poderoso Chefão". Com atuação magistral de Gene Hackman, num roteiro do próprio Coppola, o filme ganharia a Palma de Ouro em Cannes e serviria de influência para vários thrillers do período.Música utilizada: "Early Summer" de Tokyo Music Walker.-------------------------------LINKS PARA ADQUIRIR O LIVRO DO PFC ("Uma Jornada pelo Cinema - Anos 1950"):UICLAP - ⁠⁠https://loja.uiclap.com/titulo/ua98290/⁠⁠AMAZON (capa dura e e book) - ⁠⁠https://www.amazon.com.br/dp/6501481376⁠⁠-------------------------------Acesse nosso site: ⁠⁠⁠http://www.filmesclassicos.com.br⁠⁠⁠Instagram: @podcastfcProcure "Podcast Filmes Clássicos" no seu aplicativo de podcast do celular, no Spotify, YouTube, Anchor ou iTunes.

I've maybe never interviewed anyone in my entire time as a historian and podcaster who has had a career as broad and varied as Susan Lyne. Yes, I obviously wanted to talk to Susan about her role helping startup Gilt Group, and her current role as the managing partner of the VC firm BBG Ventures. But, holy how. Susan also launched and oversaw the golden era of Premiere Magazine. She was the CEO of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia when Martha had to step away to, you know, go to prison. And she was the President of ABC Entertainment. She oversaw the development of shows like Grey's Anatomy and Lost. So, like, yeah. We needed to do two episodes. So this is part one, with the great, Susan Lyne. Chapters 00:00 From Boston to Berkeley: A Transformative Journey 08:00 The Rise of Alternative Media: Village Voice Era 16:06 Hollywood Calling: The IPC Films Experience 23:12 Launching Premier Magazine: Inside Hollywood 36:14 Navigating the ABC Landscape: A New Era 40:28 Developing Grey's Anatomy And Lost Takeaways Susan's upbringing in Boston shaped her perspective on expectations and identity. Her time at UC Berkeley was transformative, exposing her to diverse ideas. Freelancing in journalism helped her develop a passion for storytelling. Working at City Magazine under Francis Ford Coppola was a unique experience. The Village Voice was a golden era for alternative media in New York. Susan's transition to Hollywood was driven by her love for storytelling. Premier Magazine aimed to provide in-depth insights into the film industry. At ABC, she focused on creating shows that appealed to women. Susan learned the importance of having a supportive partner in leadership. Her experience at ABC taught her valuable lessons about resilience and change. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Sticking closer to Mary Shelley's novel than most other adaptations, Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein is the culmination of a lifelong dream. His vision echoes the gothic maximalism of Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula, starring Jacob Elordi as a sympathetic interpretation of Frankenstein's Creature. But does this movie measure up to GDT's past hits? Steffan and Gavia have mixed feelings, delving into the film's characterization choices, production values, and relationship with the novel.

In 1974, Francis Ford Coppola released The Conversation — a quiet, unsettling film about a man who hears too much and feels too little. At first glance, it's a story about surveillance. But beneath the microphones and tape machines lies something far more human: guilt, loneliness, and the desperate need to stay unseen.In this episode, we step inside the private world of Harry Caul — a surveillance expert haunted by the sounds he captures and the silence he can't escape. We explore the film's key themes, its haunting sound design, and its eerie foresight into our digital age — when we all became both watchers and the watched.Further reading and viewing:The Conversation (Francis Ford Coppola, 1974)Blow Out (Brian De Palma, 1981)Klute (Alan J.

This is our final film review of Season 7, and we decided to go out with a bang: a bizarre labor of love that provokes as much confusion as it does admiration. A film fifty years in the making, equal parts science fiction, political allegory, and personal manifesto from one of the greatest living directors. It's proof that some people still haven't processed 9/11, and quite possibly the only place you'll see an Asian Elvis impersonator singing “America the Beautiful.” It's Megalopolis, written, directed, produced, and funded by the legendary Francis Ford Coppola.Check us out on...Twitter @TSMoviePodFacebook: Time SensitiveInstagram: @timesensitivepodcastGrab some Merch at TeePublicBig Heads Media 

In our latest tribute, Janet, John, (and Pen) celebrate the life and career of the actress, director, producer, and fashion icon whose began to rise to stardom during the New Hollywood movement... Diane Keaton! With a 60-year long career in Hollywood, this actress was always destined to one day be under the limelight, but after seeing her mother win Mrs. Los Angeles her resolve to become a part of the dramatics of performing at a young age only strengthened. She participated in singing and acting club during high school and continued to perform anywhere she could until she was cast as an understudy in the production of Hair (1968). From there she began to rise in the broadway eye, soon being nominated for a Tony as the Best Featured Actress in a Play for her role in Play it Again, Sam (1969). She truly couldn't be stopped as she moved from the stage to the screen with her debut film, Lovers and Other Strangers (1970). Soon after she was being cast in Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather (1972) as Kay Adams-Corleone and Woody Allen's Annie Hall (1977), which combined together launched her into stardom and earned her the Oscar for Best Actress in a Leading Role. Some of her other fantastic films are Looking for Mr.Goodbar (1977), Reds (1981), Manhattan (1979) , The First Wives Club (1996), Finding Dory (2016), Book Club (2018), and many more.  To learn more about this episode and others, visit the official Cinema Sounds & Secrets website!

The American New Wave, or New Hollywood, launched the careers of some of the United States' most iconic filmmakers, from Steven Spielberg and George Lucas to Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese. But what was this era, when studios granted directors unprecedented creative freedom, really about, and what did it reveal about 1970s America?Hosts Elliot Bloom and Tom Ooms dive into this transformative period, discussing the quintessential elements of the movement while spotlighting cult heroes like Robert Altman and John Cassavetes and overlooked filmmakers such as Barbara Loden and Elaine May. They also ask whether today's social and political climate in the United States could spark a new wave of radical cinema.Get tickets to ⁠New Hollywood: The Films of The American New Wave⁠ @ LAB111

In this episode, I talk about Francis Ford Coppola's 1974 film, "The Conversation." The film follows Harry Caul, a wiretapper in San Francisco who becomes obsessed with a recording he's made of a young couple in a crowded park. As Harry pieces together fragments of their conversation, he's drawn into a spiral of paranoia, guilt, and loneliness.I explore what makes "The Conversation" a masterpiece—not just as a film about surveillance and paranoia, but as an intimate character study. I talk about Harry's profound loneliness, his complicity in his own alienation, and the psychic toll of a life spent surveilling others from a distance. If you'd like to support my work and get access to bonus episodes and exclusive posts, you can join me on Patreon: patreon.com/herheadinfilmspodcast.You can follow me on Letterboxd.

En pleine guerre du Viêt Nam, le capitaine Benjamin Willard (Martin Sheen) se voit confier une mission par les services secrets militaires américains: il doit retrouver et exécuter le colonel Walter Kurtz (Marlon Brando), dont les méthodes militaires sont jugées malsaines par la chaîne de commandement. Le colonel Kurtz a pris la tête groupe dʹindigènes et mène des opérations depuis un camp établi au Cambodge. Ses opérations contre lʹennemi sont dʹune sauvagerie terrifiante. Willard va alors remonter le fleuve jusquʹau plus profond de la jungle vietnamienne pour pouvoir éliminer le colonel Kurtz. Mais au cours du voyage, en étudiant le dossier du bonhomme, il se rend compte quʹil est très différent de lʹidée quʹil sʹen faisait. Arrivés au campement de Kurtz, les choses vont méchamment déraper. Mais je ne vous dirai ni comment, ni pourquoi, car il faut voir et revoir Apocalypse Now, film de Francis Ford Coppola, sorti en 1979. Apocalypse Now est le 8e film de ce réalisateur. Cʹest un des films les plus mythiques du cinéma du 20e siècle. Lʹimage en est saisissante et lʹhistoire du tournage a viré à la légende. Pas pour rien certainement, et on va, au cours de ce travelling, essayer de démêler le vrai du faux. REFERENCES: Le tournage du film a fait lʹobjet d'un documentaire sorti en 1991 : Aux cœurs des ténèbres : L'Apocalypse d'un metteur en scène (Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse), réalisé par Fax Bahr et George Hickenlooper sur la base des films amateurs tournés sur les plateaux par lʹépouse de Coppola, Eleanor Coppola.

All treats and no tricks for you in this packed Halloween edition of Breakfast All Day. Here's what we've got: NOUVELLE VAGUE: Richard Linklater recreates the making of the French New Wave classic "Breathless" with a movie that looks like it could have come out in 1960, as well. You don't need to know anything about Jean-Luc Godard, or Jean Seberg, or Jean-Paul Belmondo to enjoy this affectionate and humorous homage, but there are Easter eggs galore if you do. In theaters before streaming on Netflix Nov 14. SHELBY OAKS (With William Bibbiani): Our good friend Bibbs joins in on a review of this horror debut from longtime YouTube film critic Chris Stuckmann. It follows a woman investigating the disappearance of her sister, who was a paranormal investigator, in a small Ohio town. In theaters. HEDDA: Tessa Thompson is impossibly charismatic in this bold reimagining of the classic Henrik Ibsen play "Hedda Gabler." Nia DaCosta's adaptation is queer and multiracial in ways that are reminiscent of "Bridgerton." The cinematography and production design are gorgeous, but see it for the clothes alone. Streaming on Prime Video. IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT: This will end up being a major contender in the awards conversation. Iranian master Jafar Panahi tells the story of several disparate people who come together to abduct and confront the man they believe was their torturer in prison. It's tense and beautifully acted, with an unexpected streak of absurd humor. In theaters. MOVIE NEWS LIVE!: Our travels have kept us from doing our movie news livestream for the past couple weeks, so it was nice to be together again. Among the topics we discussed were the upcoming "Stranger Things" finale, "Sinners" and "K-Pop Demon Hunters" back in theaters, Osgood Perkins Day, and Francis Ford Coppola auctioning off his watch collection. We're gone next week but back Nov. 14. Thanks for being here! Subscribe to Christy's Saturday Matinee newsletter: https://christylemire.beehiiv.com/

Today, the scary is everywhere! A man threw his own funeral and he wasn't dead, plus a blind man in Italy received state benefits for 50 years, problem for him is that he wasn't actually blind. A restaurant in Washington has a strict no phones policy, and people are loving it. Something appears to be up with Britney Spears and it doesn't seem good. Francis Ford Coppola is broke, as in no money, and AI could soon be assisting NFL refs. Early to bed and early to rise isn't necessarily a good thing, and as odd as it may sound, people are being warned they shouldn't lick the toads. Three women were arrested because their underwear had $650,000 worth of gold in them, and Valentine's Day is not the loneliest day of the year for singles; Halloween is! Today is our Halloween Spooktacular and it's a complete waste of your time. That I promise.

Valenti and Rico discuss the absurdity behind a headline that legendary director Francis Ford Coppola is selling a few watches due to losing all of his own money making Megalopolis.

Ep. 357: Radu Jude on his new film Dracula, plus One Battle After Another, shooting his next film, and more Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. Radu Jude's latest film, Dracula, is a fervidly imaginative, joyously profane look at this enduring myth through multiple stories, riffing on past tellings, a dinner theater, Francis Ford Coppola's film, a sweatshop run by vampires, assorted AI grotesquerie, and more. As a fan of Radu Jude's work, I couldn't resist another conversation with the multiple-award-winning Romanian director of Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World.

Francis Ford Coppola is broke! He said he is selling off some of his prized watches to stay afloat! 

This week, we dive headfirst into the visual and stylistic feast that is Francis Ford Coppola's "Bram Stoker's Dracula" (1992).The ambition is undeniable—Coppola wanted to make a definitive, hyper-gothic, technically ingenious vision of the classic novel. And yet, for all its spectacular in-camera effects, Oscar-winning costumes by Eiko Ishioka, and Gary Oldman's powerhouse performance, the hosts find themselves a little lost in the crimson mist.Lemar and Mackenzie agree that this film, despite its good parts (and they are gorgeous parts), is simply trying to do too much. We discuss the overstuffed plot, which attempts to be a sweeping historical tragedy, a lurid gothic horror, an erotic thriller, and a faithful period piece all at once. We praise Oldman's captivating Count, the lush, jaw-dropping visual artistry, and the sheer audacity of the production. But we can't ignore the narrative confusions, the wildly uneven supporting performances (poor Keanu), and the overall feeling of maximalism that leaves the story feeling dispersed rather than cohesive.Tune in as we try to see the good in this operatic monster movie, ultimately concluding that sometimes, even a masterpiece can be too much of a good thing.This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram and TikTok to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming next.

Filmmaker Ari Gold turns the camera on his own family in "Brother Verses Brother," an ambitious one-shot musical that follows him and his identical twin brother searching for meaning through the streets of San Francisco's North Beach, alongside their 99-year-old novelist father, Herb. Gold explains how this experimental work, executive produced by Francis Ford Coppola and generating serious buzz on the festival circuit, blurs the line between documentary and fiction, asking uncomfortable questions about art, family, and what we're willing to expose in pursuit of truth.

In this episode, we explore Lucas Wars by Laurent Hopman and Renaud Roche. The book reveals how a life-altering car crash in Modesto, CA, changed George Lucas's path forever, leading him to film school where he met the likes of Steven Spielberg and Francis Ford Coppola. We discuss his untold struggles, from the first film that bankrupted his company to a studio that wasn't thrilled with his vision. The book takes us behind the scenes of the on-set disasters, actor casting challenges, and studio interference that plagued the production of Star Wars: A New Hope. This is a must-read for any film fan, revealing the true grit and creative vision that built a galaxy far, far away.

When Francis Ford Coppola shoots you an email asking you to transform his new movie into a comic book, you say yes and worry about the details later. Chris Ryall got the email. Once he got over the shock ot it, he immediately knew who to contact next: Comic Book Couples Counseling regular, Jacob Phillips. They couldn't have possibly understood what an undertaking they were committing to during those early days, but nearly five years later, they have the Megalopolisgraphic novel in their hands. It's something special. As you'll hear on this week's podcast, Francis Ford Coppola wanted Ryall and Phillips to make the comic their own. If that meant chopping up the script or fabricating the designs, so be it. Jacob Phillips approaches the likenesses the way he would any corporate comic character. If he were on Batman, he'd do his version of Batman. So, he'd apply the same logic to Adam Driver. The actor is the design, but the pencils and inks belong to Phillips. The magic is in how the movie and the comic, crafted independently of each other, aligned so well together. Chatting with Ryall and Phillips allowed us to celebrate both artistic mediums. We discuss the challenges of translating cinematic ideas onto panels, the need for repertoire stories, and the hope within Francis Ford Coppola's humanism. Before all that, however, we also discuss the new documentary, Shopping for Superman. Directed by Wes Eastin, the film travels across America, from one comic book shop to another. It's a must-watch for every comic book reader, as it honors the industry while contemplating where it's all going in the wake of Diamond Comic Distributors' destruction. Megalopolis, the comic, is published by Abrams ComicArts and arrives in shops on October 7th. Make sure you're following Chris Ryall on his Substack, Instagram, and Blue Sky. Also, follow Jacob Phillips on Instagram and Blue Sky.

Scot and Jeff discuss the second part of Tom Waits' career (1983-2011) with Damon Linker.Introducing the Band:Your hosts Scot Bertram (@ScotBertram) and Jeff Blehar (@EsotericCD) are joined by guest Damon Linker. Damon is a senior lecturer in political science at the University of Pennsylvania, and publishes a Substack newsletter titled “Notes from the Middleground.” Follow him at @DamonLinker on Twitter.Damon's Music Pick: Tom WaitsWe sail tonight for Singapore and we're all as mad as hatters here. Yes, Political Beats finishes its two-part celebration of the career of Tom Waits, rejoined by doughty boatswain Damon Linker as we pilot our way to unknown musical seas. Tom Waits had a fine career up through the year 1982, when he finished work on the soundtrack for Francis Ford Coppola's One from the Heart. But we're talking about the man primarily because of what happened afterwards, when he became more than just a down-and-out jazz pianist with the voice of a Babadook. Waits met script supervisor Kathleen Brennan on the set of the film and fell in love, marrying a year later. (They remain married to this day.) Proving herself the anti-Yoko Ono, Brennan then alchemically helped to raise Waits's music to an entirely new level of excitement and experimentation. His lyrics ideas become weirder, and more vivid. His ballads become infinitely more heartfelt (most of them are secretly addressed to Brennan). And his arrangements become a world of their own: Tom Waits begins, in 1983, to create glorious junk sculptures out of sound, using uncharacteristic (often minimalistic) instrumentation to create music that nobody has heard before.Through such landmarks of the 1980s and 1990s as Swordfishtrombones, Rain Dogs, Bone Machine, and The Mule Variations, Tom Waits transcended his balladeering origin -- without ever leaving it entirely behind -- and created a body of work famous for its eccentric, compelling, and deeply influential series. Once you get past the fact that he has a voice like the sawblades of a lumber mill, entire worlds will open up to you. Click play and clap hands! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
