Feature: Bleak Week returns for Year 4, we talk to programmers behind the festival This year marks the 4th year of the American Cinematheque’s Bleak Week: Cinema of Despair, a weeklong festival dedicated to screening films with dark and bleak themes. In this year’s lineup, you’ll find screenings of Michael Haneke’s English adaptation of Funny Games, the Soviet anti-war film Come and See, and Studio Ghibli co-founder Isao Takahata’s Grave of the Fireflies. You’ll also find that the Year 4 lineup includes introductions/Q&As with the likes of Bill Hader, Elliot Gould, and Brady Corbet. Outside of the usual festival screenings here in Los Angeles, the American Cinematheque has partnered with other arthouse theaters across the country, and even The Prince Charles Cinema in London. Joining us to discuss this year’s iteration of the festival is Chris LeMaire, lead programmer on the American Cinematheque’s Bleak Week, and Grant Moninger, American Cinematheque’s Artistic Director. We also have our critics, Charles Solomon, Claudia Puig and Peter Rainer, commenting on what about the festival has allowed it to garner interest. Bleak Week runs from June 1-7.

As horror fans, it's hard enough trying to keep up with all the movies—let alone the memorabilia and collectibles—but just imagine having to live with one of us! In this episode, we've invited our wives onto the show to share their perspectives—not just on living with a slightly obsessive fan, but on how they've come to embrace the genre themselves. You'll hear how they became fans in their own right, and what kinds of films still give them the shivers. As you'll learn, being a horror fan has evolved into a shared experience—a communal passion that binds us together. While we might not all love the same titles, we all agree on one thing: this genre rules. We welcome Kat AuBuchon, Jenn Glonek, and Dawn Kitley as they join us to help Discover the Horror!

SEASON 2 - EPISODE 133 - Lisy Christl - Costume Designer In this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, we speak with costume designer Lisy Christl (CONCLAVE, ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT, FUNNY GAMES). Originally from Bavaria, Lisy did just about everything she could do to avoid the film industry, and she shares several moments from her career when other filmmakers would not take her “no” as an answer. Lisy later reflects on her 10-year-long collaboration with director Michael Haneke, and she reveals the inspiration for the all-white outfits of the two men in FUNNY GAMES. We also discuss Lisy's work on CONCLAVE, and she reveals what inspired her to adjust the typical garb worn by the cardinals. During our discussion of her work in TIME OF THE WOLF, Lisy shares the costuming decision she made to bring the audience to the present in a scene that recalled a scenario out of the Middle Ages, and she reveals the lengths she and her team went to design silent puffy jackets out of consideration for the sound department. We also discuss Lisy's work in ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT, and she describes how and why she empowered herself to make choices that may not have been exactly period appropriate. - This episode is sponsored by Aputure
Dotarliśmy do kolejnego MONUMENTALNEGO momentu w podcaście. Oto WIELKI odcinek o numerze 250, w którym nie robimy niczego niezwykłego. Chyba, że za takie coś uznać omówienie POTĘŻNEGO filmu Brutalista, w którym Adrien Brody nie gra Pianisty 2, który nie trwa 120 minut, który został wyreżyserowany przez aktora z remake'u Funny Games, i który na pewno zapisze się WIELKIMI literami w historii kina. Ale czy Brutalista zachwyca? A gwiezdnowojenna Załoga Rozbitków jest na tyle dobra, że też o niej wspominamy!
Check out Cam's latest novel / audio drama here! Strap in folks, this might be the most disturbing, fascinating, and unforgettable horror movies we've ever covered on the show. Our discussion of Red Rooms starts with comparisons to Funny Games before spiraling through audience complicity, weaponized curiosity, the joy of impossible questions, a celebration of uncomfortable art, and Maggie's personal history with the true crime genre that this film is skewering.

Anne and Ryan digest the architectural drama, THE BRUTALIST starring Adrien Brody, Felicity Jones, Guy Pearce, and Joe Alwyn. Directed by Brady Corbet and written by Corbet and Mona Fastvold, THE BRUTALIST follows a fictional Hungarian-Jewish architect László Tóth (Brody) as he immigrates to America and falls under the patronage of a wealthy industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren (Pearce). A critical hit and Oscar front-runner, THE BRUTALIST is undoubtedly epic in its ambition, length, and use of VistaVision, but is the film as monumental as the hype? Join us for a brutally honest discussion that takes some diversions into Wicked, Babygirl, Dave Eggers, Bradley Cooper, Funny Games, The Godfather, The Fountainhead and much, much more! THE BRUTALIST is currently in theaters.

https://notesonfilm1.com/2024/10/05/pofcrit-podcast-2024-liberty-boyd-white-on-funny-games-michael-haneke-2007/ A highly unforgiving work, Michael Haneke's horror cult-classic Funny Games (2007) stands as a profound critique of modern media consumption and the spectator's complicit relationship with the spectacle of violence often provided by American cinema. This podcast delves into the personal reflections on ideology, morality, genre and cinema as a whole, prompted by the unique viewing experience of Haneke's film. From an analysis of the abstract form (Emphasised best by its many meta-textual elements.), it's commitment to sound design, as well as an investigation into the film's dismissal of spectator 'enjoyment' - this episode hopes to emphasise the pervasive genius of Haneke's U.S remake through a conversational analysis of Funny Games as an outlier within contemporary film, thanks to its unflinching hostility towards the spectator typically depended on by cinema.

This week on Comics and Chronic the boys are doing a half baked episode as Cody & Jake discuss FX's samurai show on Shogun. Since it's pride month is Cody the Gay Lord of the podcast? A high praise. Is Shogun going to be the best show of the year? Is Mariko Sama hot as fuck! Did this show make Cody watch more Asian porn? Is the main white character a knock off Tom Hardy? Since the show is in Japanese can you afford to not pay attention? Should we be drinking Sake for this episode? Is there a butt load of suicide in this show? Has Cody chosen Jake to second him after he commits Seppuku? Would Cody have survived feudal Japan? Has the show been renewed already? Is Scorpion from the new Mortal Kombat one of the main characters? Does the show have similarities as far as political intrigue of Game Of Thrones? Does Martin Scorsese's film Silence have a lot in common with Shogun? Is the Catholic Church the true enemy of the show? Does Anthony's character in the show kill himself? Is the show brutal AF? Was the costume design incredible? Is the CGI heavy or action filled? Does this show make us want to learn Japanese? Could Betty Yayo beat Shogun? Were the opening credits sick? Did Atticus Ross do the music for Shogun? Is Junkie XL underrated? Should we do a Funny Games episode? Was this a beautiful show? Who portrayed feudal Japan better, Shogun or Ninja Turtles three?

This week, Sarah and Emma bond over Michael Haneke's (Funny Games) unnerving character study of a repressed middle-aged piano instructor who seeks an outlet for her controversial sexual desires while in the grasp of her controlling mother. The ladies discuss the film's central theme of the dynamics of power & control. An 18-year old Sarah visits a rural roadside smut shop with her friends. Emma begrudgingly gives a dramatic reading of the film's infamous kink letter, while Sarah reads reviews from disgruntled book club women who, for some reason, were under the impression that this was a romance.
Our homes are meant to be where we feel the safest, so it makes sense that there's an entire horror movie subgenre dedicated to home invasions. The Strangers, Panic Room, Funny Games, When a Stranger Calls, even Jordan Peele's Us. All those movies play on the innate fear we have that our most peaceful area would be disturbed by those that would do us harm. Unfortunately, there are people out there that would do us harm just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Today, we're finishing one of those stories.

Welcome to Movie Homework, presented by Binge Media!Your hosts, Jack and Chad, are here to take you on a journey through the world of film, one movie at a time.

Along the way, they'll award the film superlatives for Most Entertaining Scene, Favorite Quote, Best Use of Music and many more.So grab your popcorn, sit back, and join Jack and Chad as they take you on a journey through the movies.There are a handful of horror/thrillers that encompass a meta-narrative, but few have gone as deep into that subject as 2007's Funny Games, director Michael Haneke's remake of the same film from 1997. The film really never rose to prominence or critical acclaim on release but to people who appreciate the flick it offers a totally unique take on a slasher film. Is this a pretentious piece of art-house garbage? Why has Michael Pitt's career not taken off? And is Tim Roth a "bitch"?

This month we're just wild about Siobhan Fallon Hogan. You Might Know Her From Men In Black, Forrest Gump, Dancer in the Dark, Dogville, The House That Jack Built, Shelter in Solitude, Rushed, Holes, Seinfeld, and Saturday Night Live. Siobhan gave us all the goods: from iconic dialect work in your favorite movies to her years-long collaborations with Lars von Trier. Siobhan spilled on doing bits while performing in Shakespeare in the Park, having fart competitions with Ben Gazzara on the set of Dogville, and getting horrifically killed by Matt Dillon in The House That Jack Built. We also got to talk about her turn as a screenwriter of two indie films: Rushed and Shelter in Solitude (both avail to stream now), and how her Catholic values inform all her work. A true delight from start to finish! Just feel better knowing that Lauren Bacall once asked, “Will we ever work again?” and know you are not alone! Love you mean it! Also, please note we recorded this before we both texted each other “O.J. Simpson is dead!” so yeah, O.J. Simpson is dead and maybe we conjured it by talking about his acting and prison work.

The time has come for us at the 'Rotten Tomatoes is Wrong' podcast family to say, "so long, farewell."When this podcast premiered in September of 2020, we wanted to shed a light on some of the films that may have been maligned by critics at the time. We wanted to cover the movies that, after watching them, made us think, "That was awesome!" or "That was such a good movie!" only to see that said film had a Rotten rating on the Tomatometer.Inspired by our book, Rotten Movies We Love, we set out to defend audience favorites and cult classics such as 'Sister Act 2,' 'Hocus Pocus,' and 'The Mummy.'After four years of fighting the good fight, Mark and Jacqueline are joined by Producers Lucy Bruckner and Brian Perez, and Mr. "Two Minutes with Tim" himself, Tim Ryan, to look back at some of their favorite moments and guests over the years, talk about their favorite films we covered, and discuss which films we wish we had the chance to defend: 'Eddie and the Cruisers II,' anyone?This podcast would not have been possible without the fans. We are so appreciative of the community we created and the support we received from you each and every week.Thank you from everyone here at 'Rotten Tomatoes is Wrong,' and in case we don't see you... good afternoon, good evening, and good night!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
