We talk Frederick Wiseman's Menus-Plaisirs – Les Troisgros (2023) with writer Julien Allen.0:00:00: intro135:17: chat w/Allenwisemanpodcast@gmail.com
Wenn man sich anschaut, wo Frederick Wiseman alles war, was er alles gefilmt hat, dann kann einem schwindelig werden. Vielleicht gibt es gar keinen anderen Filmemacher, bei dem man so sehr wie bei ihm sagen kann, es ging um Menschheit, um Gesellschaft, um uns. Im neuen Special schauen sich Christian, Lucas und JE seine Methode an und versuchen die Entwicklung seiner Institutionen-Dokumentationen zu verstehen. Vom kritischen Blick aus "Titicut Follies" und "Welfare" über den Wahnsinn des Spiels bei "Missile" und das gigantische Kleinstadt-Portrait "Belfast, Maine" bis hin zu den hunderten Gewerken der New York Public Library in "Ex Libris". Wir hätten noch ewig weiterreden können, weil es so viel zu sagen gibt. Eine Folge, die man auch gut hören kann, wenn man sich noch gar nicht mit Wiseman beschäftigt hat. Die ganze Folge jetzt für alle, die uns auf Steady unterstützen: https://steadyhq.com/cuts
Paging doctors Josh and Andrew, returning guest Alex McPherson calls them down to take a look at documentary icon Frederick Wiseman's Hospital. A seminal early work in the director's decades-spanning career, the trio dissect all the gross, aggravating, depressing, and heartwarming moments spread throughout this encapsulating look at 1970s healthcare. Including a talk about similarities to Wiseman's other doc Welfare, our hosts and guest gladly share their love for the celebrated filmmaker and what he captured through his “reality fiction.” Next, they have One More Thing, going a little off-kilter this week with the newly-released RPVG Dungeons of Hinterburg and two Letterboxd accounts archiving reviews from two famous critics, Not Pauline Kael and Not Andrew Sarris.Next week, Josh and Andrew bring on a new guest, Victor Putinier, to raise Hell over the 70s cult horror movie Messiah of Evil.

« Le documentaire vous gâche un peu la vie réelle, parce qu'il vous apprend à être extrêmement attentif » : ainsi parlait Frederick Wiseman, dont la vie réelle a dû être souvent gâchée, lui qui cultivait avec élégance et intelligence son attention au monde, captant les détails, les regards et les souffles. Frederick Wiseman fut membre du premier jury du Cinéma du réel en 1979. C'est dire s'il tenait à ce festival auquel nous aimons consacrer une émission. 37 films documentaires sont au programme de la 48ème édition du Cinéma du réel qui s'est ouverte jeudi dernier (26 mars 2026) avec la projection du Nuestra tierra de Lucrecia Martel et se fermera dimanche (29 mars) avec le film En Nous de Juliette Binoche. Nous avons le plaisir de recevoir en studio trois cinéastes de la sélection : - Lamia Joreige pour Casting for a film, Ihsan's diary, tourné à Beyrouth avec des jeunes Palestiniens, d'après les écrits d'un soldat ottoman de la Première Guerre mondiale - Abdou Lahat Fall pour Independance Tey, dans lequel il a suivi pendant cinq ans des militants sénégalais du FRAPP. - Et Max Mbakop qui a réalisé avec Lilia Kilburn un film court, mais puissant : Le serpent à Bonanjo, tourné à Douala au Cameroun. Musiques : La Terre de Camille, Wëy Wallu de Leuz Diwane et Gratitude de Dieze Mbangue.
We talk Frederick Wiseman's Un Couple (2022) and all the Wiseman memorial pieces before talking about his legacy with filmmaker and critic Kent Jones.0:00:00: intro104:50: chat w/Joneswisemanpodcast@gmail.com
As with most art forms, movies depend heavily on tradition—either by embracing it or countering it in new, original ways. On this week's show, Dan Webster, Nathan Weinbender and Mary Pat Treuthart discuss the importance of two cinema giants, artists who in their respective ways represented the best that moviemaking has to offer: the Oscar-winning actor Robert Duvall and the master documentary director Frederick Wiseman.
Last month brought suitable mourning for Robert Duvall and Frederick Wiseman, whose legacies are so enshrined that the lengthy obituaries published by major outlets could have—likely were—written years ago. But immediately after came a quieter announcement that hit me hardest: Tom Noonan, the actor best-known for his collaborations with Michael Mann and Charlie Kaufman, and a filmmaker who made formally elegant and emotionally lacerating features based on his own plays. (As discussed in my 2021 interview with him.) While his passing may, to various film institutions, not seem so notable as Duvall or Wiseman, I noticed that the online reaction was essentially as instant and admiring. It's perhaps impossible to experience a Noonan performance, with that tall frame and mellifluous voice, and come away feeling like you'd seen any other actor. My friend, the critic Keith Uhlich, had known Noonan closely, working with him in both theater and cinema. I considered here and now the proper time to reminisce on Noonan's work, and a unique opportunity to Keith tell intimate stories of him as both an artist and friend.

In this episode, John and Miles explore how the original Star Wars trilogy became a kind of emotional survival guide—A New Hope teaching us how to believe again, The Empire Strikes Back showing us how to live with failure, and Return of the Jedi reminding us that sometimes the bravest act is letting go. Along the way, they pay tribute to Catherine O'Hara, Robert Duvall, and Frederick Wiseman, reflecting on the many ways artists help us endure the systems and chaos of life.
We report from the European Film Market's DocSalon in Berlin, where several filmmakers discussed their work premiering in the Berlinale: Anna Fitch and Banker White, directors of YO (Love Is a Rebellious Bird), which won a Silver Bear for Outstanding Artistic Achievement, and Mark Cousins, director of the 16-chapter The Story of Documentary Film. Hosts John Ridley and Matt Carey also remember late filmmaker Frederick Wiseman, and they examine the implications of Paramount's emergence as the successful bidder for Warner Bros Discovery, home, among other things, to HBO Documentary Films.

Nous vous proposons de réécouter une émission consacrée à Frederick Wiseman, l'immense cinéaste disparu le 16 février 2026. Un continent du cinéma à lui tout seul, de son premier film Titicut Follies tourné dans un hôpital psychiatrique du Massachussetts en 1966 à Menus plaisirs en 2023 consacré au restaurant des Troisgros. Wiseman aura passé sa vie, caméra à la main avec un appétit et une curiosité qui l'ont conduit du tribunal pour enfants de Memphis à un hôpital de New York et de la petite colonie américaine du canal de Panama à un centre de recherche sur les primates. Une oeuvre que d'aucuns ont comparée à la Comédie humaine de Balzac, c'est dire sa puissance et son ampleur... Wiseman, c'était d'abord une signature, des films très longs de 2 heures, voire 3, parfois 4. Sans interview face caméra ni voix off, un montage au millimètre. Voir un film de lui, c'était plonger en immersion dans un monde, aussi sentir l'intelligence et l'acuité de son regard couler dans vos veines, une expérience vraiment unique. Direction les États-Unis, dans cette émission enregistrée en novembre 2017, on échangeait avec Frederick Wiseman de son film Ex Libris consacré à la Bibliothèque de New York. Il y est question de licornes et d'écritures médiévales, d'Elvis Costello et de Toni Morrison, de service public et de démocratie bien sûr. Frederick Wiseman nous parlait de son travail, inlassable chroniqueur, depuis plus de quarante ans, des institutions de son pays. En fin d'émission, nous revenons sur le Palmarès des Césars, la cérémonie se tenait le 26 février 2026 à l'Olympia, à Paris.
This week on The Screen Show, we're joined by Óliver Laxe, director of Sirāt, the acclaimed Cannes‑lauded drama following a father's search for his missing daughter across the Moroccan desert, and we also hear from Hollywood star Amanda Seyfried about taking on the role of Ann Lee — the visionary 18th‑century founder of the Shakers — in The Testament of Ann Lee, a performance widely praised as one of the finest of her career, along with director Mona Fastvold. And we revisit an interview with the legendary documentarian Frederick Wiseman in light of the sad news of his passing.Presenter, Jason Di RossoProducer, Sarah CorbettSound engineer, Riley MelissArts editor, Rhiannon Brown

¿Cómo se cuenta una historia sin narración ni entrevistas? La respuesta está en el trabajo del documentalista Frederick Wiseman, recientemente fallecido a los 96 años de edad y que deja una extensa obra en que el sentido de comunidad reluce. Especialmente, dice Daniel Villalobos, en su mirada a un gimnasio de boxeo en Texas.
In 1968, Frederick Wiseman embedded with the Kansas City Police Department. He emerged with LAW AND ORDER (1969), a sobering portrait of what it meant to "serve and protect" at the dawn of the Nixon era. We mark Frederick Wiseman's passing by discussing one of his quintessential films. PLUS: We check in on our fallen British comrades (ex-)Prince Andrew and Keir Starmer.

Welcome to The Reel Schmooze with ToI film reviewer Jordan Hoffman and host Amanda Borschel-Dan, where we bring you all the entertainment news and film reviews a Jew can use. Movie maven Hoffman begins with a tribute to master documentarian Frederick Wiseman, who died this week, aged 96. We then hear about the Israeli film “Children No More: Were and Are Gone,” directed by Hila Medalia, which is nominated for Best Documentary Short Film. The film documents a vigil that began in March 2025 in Tel Aviv, as a handful of left-wing protesters held photos of children killed in Gaza. And in the final segment, the pair rewind the 50-year-old masterpiece, "All the President's Men." In addition to appreciating the film's 1976 fashions and antiquated good manners, they note parallels to today's deep exploration into the trove of documents connected with the Epstein case.

Esta edición del podcast queda marcada por la muerte de Robert Duvall, toda una leyenda de la interpretación que a lo largo de seis décadas fue un ejemplo de solidez, honestidad y verdad sin dejarse cegar por el brillo de los focos. Estuvo en algunas de las mejores películas de la segunda mitad del siglo XX y ejemplificó la máxima de elevar con su sola presencia cualquier título en el que estuviera presente. In Memoriam a cargo de Mary Carmen Rodríguez en un programa en el que también homenajearemos en su despedida al actor James Van Der Beek y al documentalista Frederick Wiseman. Recuperamos las versiones de “Cumbres borrascosas” para aquellos que no hayan estado muy a favor de la realizada por Emerald Fennell y hacemos balance del Festival de Berlín 2026. Spooky a los mandos técnicos.
The great actor Robert Duvall made his mark starring in epic movies and intimate dramas including ‘The Godfather,' ‘Tender Mercies,' ‘The Great Santini,' and, of course, ‘Apocalypse Now.' He died Sunday at age 95. We listen back to archival interviews from 1996 and 2010. Also, the documentary filmmaker Frederick Wiseman, whose approach was to choose a subject and capture it at great, revealing length, died Monday at age 96. His films include 'Titicut Follies,' 'Central Park,' 'Juvenile Court,' 'High School,' and 'Hospital.' He spoke with Terry Gross in 1986 about why he chose documentary as his medium.

Frederick Wiseman (1930-2026) is a master documentarian who across 60 years made doc masterpieces about systems and institutions like TITICUT FOLLIES, HIGH SCHOOL, HOSPITAL, ESSENE, WELFARE, MULTI HANDICAPPED, IN JACKSON HEIGHTS. Although not as widely known as some of his narrative feature contemporaries, Wiseman is one of the greatest moviemakers who ever practiced the craft. His ability to find profound, ironic, incisive stories within his material and then to edit the material into a novelistic experience is auteur level. Secret Movie Club founder and programmer Craig Hammill talks about Wiseman's movies, working methods, and impact. And he begs you to get a library card so you can watch Wiseman's masterpieces on kanopy.com.

The Cinematography Podcast Special: Frederick Wiseman With the passing of documentarian Frederick Wiseman, here is a re-release of our 2020 interview. He discusses City Hall, Titticut Follies, High School and more. Wiseman was a prolific filmmaker, making 45 films over 50 years. Wiseman's family and Zipporah Films kindly request that you support your local PBS affiliate or independent bookstore in Frederick Wiseman's memory. Frederick Wiseman has proven that, in his words, “If you hang around long enough, you can collect enough material and cut a dramatic narrative film out of real life.” A Frederick Wiseman documentary has a very specific style- no narration, no identifying lower-third captions, no interviews and no camera movement. The viewer simply watches the story unfold as a slice of life. The subject is usually a mundane, everyday institution that many might simply overlook. Wiseman feels his films are not merely observational, but that he actively makes decisions on how to sculpt them into a narrative during the editing process. He enjoys making documentary films because he finds comedy and drama exist in ordinary life, just as much as anyone would find in fiction. Wiseman shies away from the terms “documentary” and “cinema verité”- he thinks the term "movie" is good enough because “documentary” is something that sounds like it's supposed to be good for you. For Wiseman's film, City Hall, he had the idea that recording what happens in a city hall would be a good inside look into the machinery of how a city runs. Boston City Hall happened to be the only one that gave him permission. A staffer of the mayor had seen his films and liked the idea. Unlike some of Wiseman's other movies, Boston mayor Marty Walsh was a central character- as the leader of the city, he is very involved in seeing that it runs smoothly. Before he became a director, Wiseman was a lawyer and law school teacher. He always wanted to be a director, but had no experience with movies. He saw an opportunity to become a producer when he optioned a novel called The Cool World and asked director Shirley Clark to helm it, which helped demystify the process for him. Wiseman's first documentary, 1967's Titticut Follies, was about the Bridgewater Prison for the Criminally Insane. He knew the warden from his years as a lawyer and was able to get permission to shoot at the facility and gain access to the inmates. His next film, High School was released in 1968. "After shooting in a prison for the insane, high school seemed to be the next logical progression," he jokes. Part of Wiseman's process is to find the film as he shoots, venturing forth purposefully blind and with little preparation. For him, it all emerges in the editing process. Wiseman always does his own editing and watches each piece of footage-generally about 150 hours of it- to decide how to structure each sequence. Find Frederick Wiseman's documentaries.

With this project, Gregory is not only telling an intriguing story but also building a bridge between art and community through crowdfunding on WeFunder, where anyone can invest in the film for as little as $100.The film, a 90s-era psychological thriller, follows three high school seniors in a post-industrial East Coast town as they navigate a series of events after witnessing a murder. Gregory explained that the story draws on his own experiences growing up in Norristown, as well as his observations of the town's transformation. “This story came to me based on a lot of kind of past experiences. And I just took that and kind of heightened it into fiction,” Gregory shared.After spending a decade in Los Angeles honing his skills in acting and directing—two of his films even premiered at Cannes—Gregory returned to his roots in Pennsylvania. Inspired by the town's history and architecture, he envisioned Elmwood Park as more than just a thrilling night at the movies. “It's not just an exciting kind of thriller of a film… but it also could serve over time as like an architectural time capsule of this place,” he said.Crowdfunding plays a pivotal role in turning this vision into reality. Gregory saw platforms like WeFunder as a way to democratize investing in film. “What I liked about it is… you don't just get a T-shirt. You get actual ownership in the film and can collect on it for the rest of your life,” he explained. By inviting the community to invest, he hopes to inspire others to pursue creative endeavors, just as he was inspired by local role models like Kate Flannery, a fellow Norristown native and actor known for The Office.Gregory's approach is refreshingly inclusive. He shared, “Even if it makes one kid around here think that they can make a film… I think that's super important.” By leveraging crowdfunding to connect with his community, Gregory is creating an opportunity for people to feel both figuratively and literally invested in the film.Filmmaking is no small feat, but Gregory's blend of creativity, vulnerability, and community-focused strategy is proof that art can thrive outside traditional Hollywood systems. Visit to learn more about this project and how you can be part of it.tl;dr:Gregory Falatek shares how Elmwood Park, a psychological thriller, draws on his hometown's history.Crowdfunding on WeFunder enables the public to invest in Elmwood Park for as little as $100.Gregory highlights how returning to Norristown inspired him to preserve local architecture and culture.Vulnerability, Gregory's superpower, fuels his creativity and helps him connect with others authentically.Gregory invites everyone to join the project, emphasizing community impact and the democratization of film.How to Develop Vulnerability As a SuperpowerGregory's superpower is his ability to embrace vulnerability, a skill he credits for enhancing his creativity and human connection. He explained, “I think my creativity comes from being open and vulnerable, actually, in my art.” Gregory shared that growing up, he struggled with being misunderstood, which made him hesitant to open up. Over time, he learned that vulnerability allows for deeper connections, both in life and on screen. “You need this deep sense of vulnerability to make [characters] human… even if you're being funny about it,” he said.Gregory recalled his first feature film as a pivotal moment where he embraced vulnerability. Playing a “burnout type” character, he had to let go of self-consciousness to bring authenticity to the role. Surrounded by cameras and crew, he stayed true to his character, ensuring the performance resonated with humanity and heart. His openness not only elevated his acting but also helped him connect with the people around him, demonstrating the power of vulnerability in creating impactful art.Actionable Tips for Developing Vulnerability:Open Up in Everyday Conversations: Practice vulnerability by being honest and open in your daily interactions with others.Avoid Judging Yourself or Others: Approach creative work and relationships without judgment, allowing for genuine connections.Learn from Observation: Pay attention to how others express vulnerability, and apply those insights to your own life.Embrace Discomfort: Accept that being vulnerable may feel awkward at first, but it leads to growth and connection.By following Gregory's example and advice, you can make vulnerability a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.
