We start things off in 1987 with the MOTU film directed by Gary Goddard, written by David Odell and starring Dolph Lundgren, Frank Langella, and Courtney Cox which holds a big place in both Rob and Guido's mind. Then we talk the DC comics 2020 6-part comic series from past guest Tim Seeley and artists Dan Fraga & Tom Derenick that sees He-Men from throughout the multiverse partner up to defeat a terrifying enemy: Themselves!

This week, we're paging through the murky corridors of mystery, rare books, and Satanic secrets with Roman Polanski's atmospheric thriller The Ninth Gate (1999). Adapted from Arturo Pérez-Reverte's novel The Club Dumas, the film stars Johnny Depp as Dean Corso, a rare book dealer whose latest assignment drags him deep into a web of occult intrigue.Setting the Scene: Leather Bindings and Hidden SymbolsDean Corso is a sleazy but skilled rare book expert hired by the wealthy and enigmatic Boris Balkan (Frank Langella) to authenticate one of the few remaining copies of The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows, a 17th-century tome said to summon the Devil himself. Balkan believes only one of the copies is genuine, and he tasks Corso with traveling across Europe to examine all three. As Corso delves deeper, people connected to the books start turning up dead, and he finds himself pursued by cultists, a mysterious woman with supernatural abilities (Emmanuelle Seigner), and his own growing paranoia.Part noir detective story, part supernatural thriller, The Ninth Gate moves at a deliberately slow pace, building dread and unease through long shadows, whispered dialogue, and a creeping sense of danger. The mystery surrounding the book's origin and the authenticity of its illustrations becomes Corso's obsession. Each encounter along his journey offers new clues—or misdirections—about the book's true purpose, and whether the devil himself is guiding Corso's path.The film culminates in a quiet but unsettling resolution that subverts expectations. It's less about explosive revelations and more about slow, unnerving transformation, with Corso's character gradually shifting from skeptic to something far more… initiated.At its core, The Ninth Gate explores the timeless Faustian dilemma—how far one will go in pursuit of forbidden knowledge. Corso is less driven by belief than by greed and curiosity, but his journey reveals how seductive and consuming power can be. The book becomes a mirror reflecting the soul of each seeker, with deadly results for those who aren't worthy—or perhaps not wicked enough.Not one for younger viewers, this is a slow-burn adult thriller with a strong sense of place and purpose. The Ninth Gate rewards patience and attention, especially for fans of mysteries, the occult, or anyone who's ever gotten lost in a bookshop and wondered what might be lurking in the rarest of volumes.So light a candle, pour a brandy, and dust off your first edition—because The Ninth Gate invites you into a world where stories hold secrets and books just might bite back.

Returning from our unofficial hiatus, we continue our series on Oliver Stone. The early 1980s saw the release of a few films written by Stone that centered upon violent antiheroes. We talk about John Milius and his clash of visions with Stone over the approach to mysticism in 1982's Conan the Barbarian. Next, Scarface and The Year of the Dragon both unsuccessfully grasp toward Stone's political turn, while the much higher quality Salvador (1986) is the movie that truly brings Stone into his own as a filmmaker. Analyzing the insights and limitations of Salvador's critique of the CIA, we consider how its protagonist (journalist Richard Boyle, played by James Woods) reflects Stone's evolving approach to masculinity and to the legacy of the counterculture.   https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com  If you enjoy Psyop Cinema, check out Cultural Engineering Studies magazine - https://decoding-culture.com/product/cultural-engineering-studies-issue-1-print/ CORRECTION: Tony's boss in Scarface was played by Robert Loggia, rather than Frank Langella

All aboard the Battle Cat! Dan and Sarah don their Power Swords (which look suspiciously like oversized letter openers) to champion another cinematic misfire! On this day, we tackle the 1987 cinematic flop, Masters of the Universe in another instalment looking at movies that flopped at the box-office! Join us as we take on our first Dolph Lundgren movie and give a standing ovation (from a safe distance) to Frank Langella's Skeletor.    Here is just a little of what you can expect from us in this episode: We'll be dissecting the film's box-office failure and try to understand why it didn't connect with audiences. The film's adaptation from the Mattel toys, comic books and cartoons of the 1980's. How Masters of the Universe could have contributed to the downfall of Cannon Films. We find out which characters were invented entirely for the 1987 movie and which characters were lifted directly from the MOTU toy range. Sarah wonders how laser guns are powered. We bring up Matte paintings again (possibly a running theme in this season). Who's the MVP in Masters of the Universe? Clue – it's not He-Man! Is Masters of the Universe (1987) kind of underrated? Or is it just rated? So, if you're looking for a Masters of the Universe (1987) podcast or are fascinated by movies that flopped hard, look no further!

In this final installment of our March podcast villain series, we decided to end with a character who has been interpreted in more ways than almost any other: Count Dracula.Meaghan and Arthur dove into this rich, multifaceted figure who has stood the test of time, appearing in literature, theater, film, television, comics, and even ballet. While Dracula is far from the first fictional villain, his enduring presence makes him one of the most iconic.Across generations, the character has been portrayed in so many forms that it almost becomes impossible to count. So we took on the challenge of tracing Dracula's origins, his evolution across media, and our own personal favorites from his cinematic portrayals.The Roots of DraculaWe began by introducing listeners to the original story of Dracula, the novel published in 1897 by Irish author Bram Stoker. The novel is set up in an epistolary format, meaning it's told through letters, journal entries, telegrams, and various documents — a storytelling method that adds a documentary-like authenticity to the supernatural tale.Much of it was written while Stoker stayed in Whitby, England, a location that eventually inspired part of the book's setting. In the story, Jonathan Harker travels to Transylvania to help a mysterious count named Dracula purchase property in England. Things spiral into horror as Dracula makes his way to London, bringing with him death and chaos.As we discussed, there's a longstanding debate about Dracula's real-life inspiration. The common theory connects him to Vlad the Impaler, a ruthless 15th-century ruler known for his violent methods. There's also speculation around Hungarian countess Elizabeth Bathory, infamous for allegedly bathing in the blood of young girls. However, newer scholarship suggests Stoker might have chosen the name "Dracula" simply because he misunderstood it to mean “devil” in Romanian.We also touched on the thematic weight of Dracula's character - how, especially during the Victorian era, he symbolized temptation, corruption, foreignness, and disease. His ability to lure women into his power and feed on them while they remained semi-willing created a metaphorical blend of sexuality, danger, and the fear of the “other” that resonated with readers of the time.Dracula on the Screen: From Shadows to SoundWe explored how Dracula's story was first visualized in cinema, starting with the silent film Nosferatu (1922), a German adaptation that changed character names to avoid copyright issues.Despite efforts by Stoker's widow to have all copies destroyed, a few prints survived, and the film became a cult classic. Nosferatu laid the groundwork for what would become the Dracula visual standard — looming figures, haunting silhouettes, and unsettling stillness.We then examined the 1931 Dracula film starring Bela Lugosi, the first officially licensed screen adaptation. Lugosi's performance shaped the image of Dracula in popular culture: the accent, the cape, the stare.We learned that Lugosi performed the role phonetically, not speaking English fluently, which added to the eerie stillness of his portrayal. Interestingly, a Spanish-language version was filmed simultaneously using the same sets, which many critics consider to be superior in certain technical aspects.Dracula became the foundation for Universal Studios' “monster movie” identity, alongside Frankenstein, The Mummy, and The Wolfman. These films established a shared aesthetic that would be drawn upon for decades.Waves of Interpretation: Gothic Horror to Sexy VampiresFrom the 1950s through the 1970s, we saw a gothic revival of Dracula through Hammer Horror films, most prominently featuring Christopher Lee. We both appreciated Lee's version — a charismatic, regal Dracula — and talked about how he portrayed the character in seven different Hammer films. In some of those, he even refused to speak if he found the lines poorly written, creating a more silent, menacing figure.The 1970s also brought in more playful and unconventional interpretations, like Blacula, a Blaxploitation reimagining. We highlighted how William Marshall's portrayal introduced a sophisticated, socially aware Dracula figure who challenged racial themes head-on. There was also Frank Langella's Dracula, which leaned heavily into romantic seduction, further evolving the character from monster to tragic anti-hero.Then came the 1992 film Bram Stoker's Dracula by Francis Ford Coppola, starring Gary Oldman, Keanu Reeves, and Winona Ryder. While visually rich and ambitious in scope, we felt it was uneven — a mix of great performances and questionable choices, particularly with casting and pacing.Modern Spins and ReinventionWe also explored how Dracula has fared in the 21st century. In the 2000s, the character began to be molded in more experimental or comedic directions. We discussed Dracula 2000, which offered a wildly original origin story — portraying Dracula as Judas Iscariot, cursed with immortality for betraying Jesus. Despite the film's overall mediocrity, we admired the creativity of that take.Then, there was Dracula Untold (2014), a more action-oriented approach that reconnected Dracula to Vlad the Impaler. While not universally loved, we found it entertaining and appreciated its attempt to craft a distinct backstory. Meanwhile, the 2020 BBC/Netflix miniseries Dracula starring Claes Bang impressed both of us deeply. We praised it as one of the most creative and engaging portrayals in recent memory, successfully blending horror, humor, and charisma.We also talked about recent comedic takes like Renfield (2023), with Nicolas Cage going full camp as Dracula. Cage's performance stood out despite the film's weaknesses — we both agreed he injected new life into a familiar character. Additionally, animated versions like Hotel Transylvania took Dracula in a fully comedic, family-friendly direction.Cultural Impact and CuriositiesBeyond film, Dracula has appeared across multiple mediums. We were fascinated to learn that he had a run in Marvel comics in the 1970s in Tomb of Dracula, which also introduced Blade. There were radio adaptations, most notably one with Orson Welles, and even ballet productions like Dracula: Pages from a Virgin's Diary, combining gothic horror with Canadian ballet.We included several TV portrayals in our honorable mentions, such as the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Buffy vs. Dracula,” and a Supernatural episode featuring a Dracula-inspired shapeshifter. These versions brought humor and novelty to the character, continuing his evolution into satire and pastiche.And, of course, we couldn't forget the Count from Sesame Street — likely the only Dracula interpretation who's never been evil, only educational.Our Personal Rankings and Final ThoughtsWe each compiled a top-five ranking of our favorite portrayals of Dracula. While our picks varied in the lower ranks — with shoutouts to Nosferatu, Blacula, Dracula Untold, Nicolas Cage's Renfield Dracula, and the 1931 Bela Lugosi version — we both agreed that Claes Bang's portrayal in the 2020 miniseries was number one. His performance captured a blend of menace, charm, and unpredictability that felt refreshing and memorable.As we wrapped up the episode, we reflected on how Dracula, as a character, has endured through decades because of his adaptability. Whether terrifying, seductive, tragic, or hilarious, Dracula continues to evolve with the times. From Victorian fears to modern humor, he offers creators endless possibilities to reimagine what a vampire — and a villain — can be.We're wrapping up villain month with this tribute, but we're excited to start a brand new theme next week. Dracula might be going back to his coffin for now, but he'll certainly rise again.

Before we tackle Robert Eggers' Nosferatu (2024), Brandon and I take on Werner Herzog's Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979). Klaus Kinski stars as Count Dracula, not Count Orlock in this version. Isabelle Adjani stars as Lucy Harker. Kinski played Renfield opposite Christopher Lee's Dracula in Jess Franco's Count Dracula (1970)! 1979 was a big year for Dracula! There were three films featuring Bram Stoker's Vampire Count...Dracula directed by John Badham starring Frank Langella, Love at First Bite directed by Stan Dragoti starring George Hamilton, and Nosferatu the Vampyre! Join us on our Nosferatu journey and let us know your favorite! Plot: Count Dracula moves from Transylvania to Wismar, spreading the Black Plague across the land. Only a woman pure of heart can bring an end to his reign of horror. Taglines: Nosferatu...he who is doomed to wander alone in darkness. Nosferatu...he who is condemned to destroy even those whom he loves. Nosferatu...a tale of seduction in the dark night of the soul. It is fear and fun. It is a scream of horror and a cry of delight. It is Nosferatu, the Vampyre. ...He who is doomed to wander alone in darkness. ...He who is condemned to destroy even those whom he loves.

Do you remember that phase of the internet where everything was about pirates? Like everyone would mention when it's talk like a pirate day and things like that. We go a little further back before all that with Cutthroat Island(1995). A movie you'll probably see a whole lot on lists of biggest box office bombs. It and Show Girls killed the studio that made it. Geena Davis is the daughter of a pirate captain. Her dad is one of three pirates that has a map to a massive buried treasure. Her uncle pirate, Frank Langella, kills her dad in his quest for the treasure. So it's something of a race … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 232: French Cutthroat"

To end their "Politics" cycle, Madeline, Julian and Emilio put a different spin on their Close Up episode format by looking at three different actors' portrayal of one real-life political figure, former President Richard M. Nixon.  The group welcomes in another Richard - Madeline's dad! - a retired history teacher and Watergate buff, to give these films and performances some important historical context.  They discuss Oliver Stone's sprawling biopic 'Nixon' from 1995, the several stages of Nixon's political and private life depicted with impressive realism by Anthony Hopkins, and what is gained and lost when a film has such a wide scope.  Next is 'Dick', Andrew Fleming's 1999 farcical reimagining of the Watergate scandal with Dan Hedaya as Nixon, where the group discusses the importance of mining politicians for humor.  They close their discussion with a look at Ron Howard's 2008 film 'Frost/Nixon', featuring Frank Langella as Nixon, and consider where and when its helpful for creative liberties to be taken to depict real-life people and events.  Be sure to stick around for a lively round of Unlikely Shared Universe!If you enjoy our podcast, please rate and review us on your podcast platform of choice.  This really helps us find new listeners and grow!Follow us on IG and TikTok: @sleeplesscinematicpodSend us an email at sleeplesscinematicpod@gmail.comOn Letterboxd?

Send us a textDo you remember Masters of the Universe? The 1987 He-Man movie that did not resemble the beloved cartoon of the 80s, at all! We remember some good casting decisions. Frank Langella as Skeletor is awesome. Meg Foster as Evil Lynn is awesome. Dolph Lungren as He-Man, a guy who could barely speak English, why the hell not? It also stars "Friends" star, Courtney Cox, that dick of a principal from "Back to the Future" and the kid that later gets a job being an Uber driver for the Star Trek Voyager crew. And this beloved cartoon and toy empire was put in the hands of a first-time director and production company known for B-Movies starring Charles Bronson, Chuck Norris, and Jean Claude Van Damn. Oh yeah, they also ruined "Superman" by producing "The Quest For Peace". So now we're not sure what to expect. But it should be fun either way.  Do You Remember Liking This Movie?

In this week's episode, we're discussing the 1979 rendition of "Dracula" that features the 1970s' most unlikely fuckboy, Frank Langella. Wowwww. Special topics for your consideration include: getting all the spackle off your face and/or neck, interchangeable ladies' names that are decidedly not interchangeable based on a classic of gothic literature, seeing to your comfort, Donald Pleasance doing what he does best (being Donald Pleasance), and the hornier heights of Francis Ford Coppola.  Please feel free to go listen to us discuss Allen's favorite Dracula in "Bram Stoker's Dracula" (Episode 110) or my favorite Dracula (lol jk) in Episode 317- "Dracula 2000."

BOATS THIS WEEK (AUG 5-11,2024) — This week's events from historical movies starts with Monday's 719th anniversary (August 5th, 1305) of William Wallace's (Mel Gibson) capture shown in the movie 'Braveheart.' In the History Channel's dramatic miniseries "Hatfields & McCoys", we'll see how it portrays the feud between their two families turning to bloodshed for the first time on August 7th, 1882. It was also on August 7th, but in the year 1974, that Philippe Petit (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) became the only person in history to ever walk between the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York City. We'll learn about that from the 2015 Robert Zemeckis film "The Walk." Finally, we'll learn about President Nixon's (Frank Langella) resignation from August 8th, 1974 as it was shown in the Ron Howard film "Frost/Nixon." And last but certainly not least, our 'based on a true story' movie from this week in history is the comedy-drama from August 7th, 2009 "Julie & Julia." Until next time, here's where you can continue the story.

Co-star in Donald Tongue's award winning short film “Home Burial”, Michael Cobb from “truepenny arts” dropped in the WKXL NH Unscripted studio and gave me a captivating hour talking about his upcoming workshops. Stage actors looking for an edge should lend an ear to today's episode. Here is just a sample of his pedigree: “…movement improv in Boston, onstage at Trinity (including study and casting and advice by/from Richard Jenkins, some other names), including three-hander with another Tony nominee/Olympic Speed skater/Renfield to Frank Langella's Dracula on Broadway, Dallas Theatre Center lead, crashing Emmy-winning choreographer's audition and getting national broadcast on PBS out of it, year as leadership in the now Gamm Theater there, M.A. at Brown, years in the Adirondacks doing theatre, training at A.R.T./Moscow Art Theatre School to be voice/speech/text coach, STUDYING ACTING WITH MOSCOW ART THEATRE FACULTY, going to Moscow to study/teach/see theatre for three months, getting hired as Head of Voice, Speech, and Text (including teaching Shakespeare) at National Theatre Conservatory in Denver (including coaching at Denver Center Theater)…” Well worth the listen.

We're back! Luke has a story to share about his headphones. Hawk-Tuah girl has something to say about it as well. What's your favorite yeah in a pop song? We got your emails! Mr. Pink is back in the house after a hiatus from emailing. His message is filled with show moments recalled over the last few months of listening. Plus Pink wants to thank the show for providing new media information sources beyond the mainstream. Was Pink able to stick with it or did life get too hard? Find out by listening you spoon-fed bozos. Does a rueben sandwich have a proper rating? Is Stoicism overrated? Is Brett Butler's Hey Nadine the apex of the show?! Louis Gossett Jr. is greatly missed & apparently everybody needs to see Diggstown. Distractions abound with Toy Soldiers & KIDS Incorporated taking over the show briefly. Donald Sutherland is no more & we all owe him a tip of the cap for his efforts during his life. John Candy as Orson Welles. You can thank us later. If you're crapping on floors, make sure you use paper towel. Luke does his very first impression on the show which may be an Irish accent or possibly anything else. Finn Gurrer goes DEEP with his latest email. Luke is not a fan anymore. Which Ice Cube album is his best & why is Westside Connection deserving of more love? Luke wants everybody to watch the new documentary about human rights catastrophes in Gaza called The Night Won't End. Steve followed through on his commitment to check out the prison drama Oz from 1997. Was it lame? Did it ring true? Is the truth somewhere in between? Luke rubbed elbows with some of the best actors in American film in over the last 30 years in his old life back in New York City. Zelijko Ivanek who everybody will know from his face on the cover of this episode & Frank Langella who has had a career filled with memorable roles. Steve's been around now for 33 episodes as a show mainstay. Never forget Yoda & Crypt Keeper! We love you all!

It's June, so that means it's time for the AIPT Movies podcast's “Junesis” series! Where we cover movies based on/revolving around video games! In this week's episode, Alex, Tim, and Matt are joined by artist and friend Chrissy Kurpeski to discuss Edward Furlong's unfortunate run-in with a fictional video game, 1994's Brainscan!A fantastic concept with mixed results! Excessive milk drinking! A lovable musical motif that works no matter how often it's overused! A very non-slashery slasher with a script from the guy who wrote Se7en! Potentially the most oddly “romantic” portrayal of voyeurism since Body Double! An entertaining cast that includes Edward Furlong being himself, a charmingly-sleepy Frank Langella, and T. Ryder Smith as the confusingly-likable gothic punk harbinger of digital doom, The Trickster! A 90s time capsule that examines the demonization of media, the growing obsession with video games, and the early stages of the internet! A movie that's not only a great double feature pairing with 1986's Trick or Treat, but also seems to suggest that violent video games are merely an escape from the true horrors of being a teenager! In addition, Alex shares his spoiler-free thoughts on the newest entry in one of his favorite movie series, Bad Boys: Ride or Die!You can find AIPT Movies on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

With the NBA Playoffs still going we are doubling up on another great 90s basketball flick, "Eddie".  In "Eddie," played by Whoopi Goldberg, we meet a passionate basketball enthusiast who wins a contest to be the honorary coach for the struggling Knicks. What begins as a publicity stunt turns into a rollercoaster ride as Eddie's unorthodox coaching style starts to shake things up for the team and its egotistical owner, played by Frank Langella.As Eddie brings her streetwise flair and genuine love for the game to the court, she faces skepticism from the players and resistance from the management. However, her infectious energy and unconventional methods begin to win over both the team and the fans.Throughout the film, we witness hilarious moments, heartfelt interactions, and a message about the power of believing in oneself and the importance of teamwork. With memorable performances from Goldberg and a supporting cast including Dennis Farina, John Salley, and Mark Jackson, "Eddie" delivers laughs, heart, and plenty of basketball action.Join us as we discuss the highlights, the memorable quotes, and the lasting impact of this beloved sports comedy. Whether you're a basketball fan or just looking for a feel-good film, "Eddie" is sure to entertain and inspire.Friends of the Show1 Man Mafia (twitch.tv/1man_mafia)Jayke The Gamer God (twitch.tv/JaykeTheGamerGod)IB Best Gaming (https://www.tiktok.com/@ibbestgaming)Support the Show.'Beavis and Butt-head' Cover art created by Joe Crawford

Darkness Radio presents: Bram Stoker: Father Of Dracula with Researcher/Author/Filmmaker, Dacre Stoker! Bram Stoker's Dracula is one of the most successful novels in history. The tale of the evil Count has thrilled and fascinated people since its publication in 1897.  The novel has never been out of print and has been translated into thirty languages and sold in over a hundred and twenty countries worldwide. Count Dracula is now regarded as one of the most famous fictional characters in history.  The image of the undead vampire as a symbol of evil is now firmly embedded in our collective consciousness, thanks to Stoker. Paradoxically, Dracula has also become a symbol of forbidden lust thanks to the later portrayals of the character by Bela Lugosi, Christopher Lee, and Frank Langella.  But what of Bram Stoker, the man behind the creation? Sadly, he left no autobiography and precious little first-hand source material for us to better understand his life and inspirations for his writing of Dracula.  However, by examining his private journals, notes, and the memories of those who knew him we can piece together an account of his life and learn much about the man who became the father of Dracula. Dacre Stoker Joins Darkness Radio today to describe how he, filmmaker Jason Figgis. and author and screenwriter, John West are putting together that documentary of Bram Stoker's life titled, "Father Of Dracula". Stoker also tells us how we can help get  it to the finish line through a 60 day crowdsourcing campaign through  Indiegogo!

Bram Stoker, his life, his research and writing of Dracula to promote a documentary film called Father of Dracula, being made by an Irish film maker, Jason Figgis, and written by John West.  I have contributed years of research and do the narration on the film. Dracula is the most famous horror character in literature. Over a hundred years after the publication of Bram Stoker's novel Dracula, (1897) the character still has the power to fascinate and horrify us. The image of the undead vampire as a symbol of evil is now firmly embedded in our collective consciousness, thanks to Stoker. Paradoxically, Dracula has also be-come a symbol of forbidden lust thanks to the later portrayals of the character by Bela Lugosi, Christopher Lee, Frank Langella and Gary Oldman etc. etc. But what of Bram Stoker, the man behind the creation? Sadly, he left no autobiography and precious little first-hand source material for us to better understand his life and inspirations for his writing of Dracula. For most, he is a shadowy or un-known figure, a man long since eclipsed by the character that he created. However, by examining his private journals, notes, and the memories of those who knew him, we can piece together an account of his life and learn much about the man who became the father of Dracula. With this documentary, we aim to reveal the man and how he came to create the Prince of Darkness, Count Dracula. Written by author and historian John West and directed by Jason Figgis, an award-winning IFTA-nominated film and TV director, this unique documentary, narrated by Dacre Stoker, the great-grandnephew of Bram Stoker, looks at the life of his illustrious ancestor. It will cover his early life, his mysterious childhood illness, his days as a student in Dublin, his successful career as Sir Henry Irving's manager at the Lyceum Theater and, of course, how he came to write Dracula. We will  look into how Bram Stoker gathered his research in different libraries and archives and how he utilized the vampire myth that already existed across Europe and North America to bring to life literature's greatest horror icon.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

Over the past five decades, there have been several docudramas devoted to stories from The Nixon Era including films focusing on his presidency (Nixon), the investigation of the Watergate break-in (All The President's Men, Dick), and even smaller episodes WITHIN his presidency such as Elvis & Nixon which came out just a few years ago starring Michael Shannon as Elvis and Kevin Spacey as Richard Nixon.  But about 15 years ago, Ron Howard directed a somewhat unique POV of President Nixon.....the story of an independently filmed interview between Tricky Dick himself (Frank Langella) and a then somewhat well-known media personality David Frost who was played by Michael Sheen.  This movie was also adapted by an acclaimed stage play written by Peter Morgan (The Crown) who would himself adapt his play for the big screen.  And not only did it receive some awards attention (nominated for Best Picture) but considering its subject matter, it turned out to be quite entertaining!  So it's time to revisit this often funny docudrama also co-starring Kevin Bacon, Oliver Platt, Matthew Macfayden, and Rebecca Hall and remember.....if the President does it, it's NOT ILLEGAL! ;) Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon https://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

As if vampires are the worst thing you'd encounter on a cruise ship. Dracula had to find dry land before he could start sucking London dry in Bram Stoker's classic 1897 novel, which means sailing for a month on the doomed Last Voyage of The Demeter.  Will onboard medic Corey Hawkins (Straight Outta Compton) go down with the ship before he solves the mystery of why so many crew members sport holes in their necks? And does Javier Botet (Conjuring 2) ride the same wave of success that carried Bela Lugosi, Frank Langella, Nick Cage, and all the other Universal nosferatu to infamy?  Listen and find out!
