This week our usual and only host, Marissa, graciously invites Chelsea and Madison on to have a thoughtful and intellectual discussion about the 1952 American musical romantic comedy (?) Singin' in the Rain. Marissa guides our guests through the plot, history, and fun facts of this comedic romp, exploring the pitfalls and follies that accompanied the transition from silent films to talkies. Is it a rom com? Ehhhh. Is it a fabulous musical rich with quippy dialogue, catchy tunes, and mindboggling skilled footwork? Absolutely. Tangents include the Muppets, Fred Astaire, Tom Holland and Madison does at one point call Gene Kelly a power bottom.Thank you again, to Marissa, for allowing Madison and Chelsea to be on the podcast. It wouldn't exist without Marissa and anyone who claims otherwise will face legal action (I'm not kidding, Marissa said "I will sue" in a Lina Lamont voice when I brought up that she isn't actual the lead of the podcast and I can't afford the legal bills).Lastly, apologies for the delay in posting this episode-- Madison had four concerts to attend in a week and our cat producer, Uno, couldn't figure out the softwareConnect With UsFollow us on Instagram @loveatfirstscreening or send an email to loveatfirstscreening@gmail.comProduction Hosts: Chelsea Ciccone and Madison HillCat Producers: Phoebe, Uno, Kiwi, and CiscoMusic: 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.

The lights dim. The curtains rise. A murmur passes through the room, the residual sound of a thousand voices going silent. The stage is set. A street from another century. A lamppost that would make Gene Kelly feel right at home. A series of storefronts with nothing behind them but a skeleton of two-by-fours. Then there he is, appearing as though by magic. Joaquin Phoenix. In his full Joker makeup. As he starts into a passionate musical number, bellowing his emotions to the back of the room and beginning a highly choreographed dance number, two thoughts cross your mind: 1) Joaquin Phoenix truly is one of the greatest performers of our generation and 2) What the hell is he doing in your kid's school play? Mr. Phoenix is definitely not out of place in Joker: Folie à Deux, Todd Phillips' follow up to his smash hit Joker, which took the box office by storm back in 2019, earning nearly $1 billion for Warner Bros. Joker 2? Let's say its contributions to Warner Bros.' portfolio were more... aspirational than financial. In a genre-bending twist, Phillips and Phoenix take superhero movies into a new realm with the help of Lady Gaga, introducing the world to the first musical superhero blockbuster movie of the modern era. Taking a sharp left turn from where most audiences thought about the trajectory of the character and world, the team behind the second Joker movie instead decided to try something completely different with the character and the genre. Whether or not that new direction worked for you (and based purely on box office numbers, odds are that it did not) is a matter of taste. Either way, Joker: Folie à Deux is nothing if not a bold vision, and your intrepid hosts at The Reel Film Chronicles have gallantly sallied forth to explore the deranged minds at the heart of of this film and the characters they've created on screen for our twisted amusement.JOKER: FOLIE à DEUX (2024)directed by: Todd Phillipsstarring: Joaquin Phoenix - Lady Gaga - Brendan Gleeson - Catherine Keenerruntime: 138 minutesOur Website: ⁠Reel Film Chronicles⁠Our Letterboxd Profiles: ⁠Brian⁠ | ⁠Nathan⁠Nathan's Site: ⁠Feed the Voices⁠⁠Letterboxd⁠ | ⁠IMDb⁠episode 90

Se trata del primer registro que se realiza con una orca embarazada. Un investigador del Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) de Francia explora en Loro Parque las adaptaciones fisiológicas de las orcas en las últimas fases de la gestación. En un avance sin precedentes para la investigación marina, un equipo de científicos ha conseguido registrar el electrocardiograma de una orca en las semanas finales de gestación. Este estudio, llevado a cabo en Loro Parque con la colaboración del Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) de Francia, permite analizar por primera vez las adaptaciones fisiológicas de estos cetáceos durante un periodo crítico para la conservación de la especie. La investigación, liderada Angelo Torrente, investigador del CNRS, busca desentrañar los cambios en la función cardiovascular de las orcas gestantes. Gracias a un sistema experimental no invasivo, los científicos han logrado obtener datos inéditos sobre la salud cardíaca de Morgan, una hembra en avanzado estado de gestación, con el objetivo de comprender mejor los desafíos metabólicos y energéticos que enfrentan estos animales en esta fase crucial de su vida. El acceso a una orca en estado avanzado de embarazo en un entorno controlado ha brindado una oportunidad extraordinaria para la ciencia. Este estudio no solo proporciona información sobre el esfuerzo fisiológico que supone la gestación en estos cetáceos, sino que también podría ofrecer claves sobre el desarrollo del feto. En particular, los investigadores esperan determinar si las adaptaciones al buceo que permiten a las orcas reducir voluntariamente su ritmo cardíaco se transmiten también al feto en el vientre materno. “Este estudio es un claro ejemplo de cómo el cuidado de cetáceos en instalaciones especializadas permite avances científicos imposibles de lograr en la naturaleza”, explica Javier Almunia, director de Loro Parque Fundación. “Poder registrar un electrocardiograma en una orca gestante nos da información sin precedentes sobre su metabolismo y los requerimientos adicionales de alimentación para completar con éxito la gestación, algo esencial para conservar las poblaciones de orcas en la naturaleza en situaciones de falta de alimento”. La colaboración entre Loro Parque y el CNRS refuerza el valor de la ciencia aplicada al bienestar animal y la conservación. El estudio demuestra cómo la investigación en entornos controlados permite responder preguntas clave sobre la biología de especies marinas amenazadas y, al mismo tiempo, contribuir a su protección. “La posibilidad de estudiar el corazón de una orca en gestación es un avance significativo para la ciencia”, señala Angelo Torrente. “Este tipo de investigaciones no solo nos ayudan a entender mejor a estos animales, sino que también pueden sentar las bases para futuras aplicaciones en la conservación y el manejo de poblaciones silvestres”. Con este estudio pionero, Loro Parque reafirma su compromiso con la investigación y el bienestar de los cetáceos, proporcionando un modelo de referencia para la ciencia marina y la conservación de especies en peligro. - Entrevista en el programa El Remate al coordinador de la alianza de vecinos de Canarias, Abel Román.

Greatest musical of all time, you say? Plenty of people would agree. Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly co-direct Kelly, Donald O’Connor and Debbie Reynolds through a delightful Comden and Gteen score, not to mention dance numbers that have achieved legendary status. For anyone who admires clever, energetic film choreography, it’s a joy to watch. For a fan of classic film, there’s an homage to the transition between silent and talking movie. That happened barely 20 years before this film was made, which is kind of bonkers to think about. The episode title is a callback. It’s what we do!

It's been almost three decades since Singin' in the Rain star Gene Kelly died, but his widowed spouse is allowing fans to get a look at his legacy. Gene Kelly – A Life in Music is part of this year's Auckland Arts Festival and it celebrates the star's life through archival footage, movie clips and personal stories by his wife, Patricia Kelly. She says her late husband was a romantic who was passionate about many things - but he didn't fully take to dancing until later in life. "By the time he got into high school, he realised girls liked a boy who could dance... but he never really envisioned that he would be a dancer."

In the year that Jacques Demy's beloved Umbrellas of Cherbourg turns 60, Mark Kermode and Ellen E Jones reflect on their favourite aspects of the screen musical.According to some, we're currently in the midst of a movie musicals revival, with Jon M Chu's Wicked hot on the heels of Emila Perez and Joker: Folie à Deux, but will any of them match what Ellen considers to be the pinnacle of the form, the 1950s Hollywood musical? Her love of the classic MGM musicals primed Ellen to be a huge fan of the TV show Crazy Ex Girlfriend when it came along. This is the musical sitcom that took all of these essential elements of the 1950s Hollywood musical, then recombined them with a very 21st Century approach to relationships and mental health. Ellen speaks with Crazy Ex Girlfriend creator and star Rachel Bloom about Disney, writing jokes for the screen, and spontaneous singing. But it's essential to pay proper tribute to the classics, and in particular the work of American lyricist and producer Arthur Freed. Ellen sat down with writer, filmmaker and actor Manuela Lazic to talk about Freed's masterpiece, 1952's Singin' in the Rain which stars Gene Kelly, who also co-directed with Stanley Donen. And Mark meets Janis Pugh, director of Chuck Chuck Baby, a low budget, British indie charmer set in a chicken processing factory that is deeply influenced by Jacques Demy's 1964 French hit The Umbrellas of Cherbourg. Janis Pugh is not alone in her love of The Umbrellas of Cherbourg. It follows the story of two young lovers whose future together is interrupted by the Algerian war, with the French dialogue entirely sung and set perfectly to the music of Michel Le Grand. Writer and editor of Little White Lies, David Jenkins, is a huge fan of Jacques Demy, and he speaks with Mark about the film's influences and legacy.Produced by Freya Hellier.

November has arrived and we've booked for a genre of film that is very different than the cavalcade of horror we just got out of. For some, maybe it is horror, but all month long we're going to discuss decades worth of Musical Films and we've calling it RAISE THE CURTAIN & BELT THE CHORUS. Many of these films started on the stage and others started as movies inspired by the stage and we kick it all off with a well regarded classic. Go watch this one with a grandparent, I'm sure they would appreciate the time spent with Gene Kelly, Donald O'Connor and Debbie Reynolds in Stanley Donen & Kelly's beloved 1952 musical “SINGIN' IN THE RAIN”. The silent era is fading and Hollywood talkies are looking for the full package, of which Lina Lamont is not it. Shallow and shrill she is, but she's still got some Hollywood pull. Don and Cosmo have the talent that Lina doesn't and they meet Kathy Selden, who could cover for Lina's shrill voice in a new musical feature just so long as Lina doesn't know. Of course Don and Kathy are in love and then there's all the singing and dancing that you might have heard over the years even if you never formally sat down with this one. Donald O'Connor truly steals the show here. The talent level is something to be admired so check this out (last we checked it's on MAX) and hear us talk of this beloved musical.

Support Breaking Walls at https://www.patreon.com/thewallbreakers Much ink has been spilled on Breaking Walls this year talking about Suspense. For more information on the series in 1944, please tune into Breaking Walls episode 154. On Thursday November 2nd, 1944, Van Johnson made his first appearance on “radio's outstanding theater of thrills” in “The Singing Walls.” In this Cornell Woolrich story, a man is drugged by gangsters to be framed for a crime. All he can remember is that music seemed to be coming out of the walls that surround him. Van Johnson started on Broadway in the mid-1930s and was selected as the understudy for Gene Kelly in Pal Joey. Lucille Ball got him an audition in Hollywood. From then on he was a “boy next door” handsome Hollywood star. At the time of this Suspense appearance, radio columns were commenting about the frequency of his appearances on radio's biggest programs. He was on all of the big comedy and variety shows as well as dramatic programs, often appearing on radio multiple times a week, sometimes daily, during this period of his career.

MYSTERIES OF OUR BRAIN: 2/4: The Experience Machine: How Our Minds Predict and Shape Reality by Andy Clark (Author)) https://www.amazon.com/Experience-Machine-Minds-Predict-Reality/dp/1524748455 Widely acclaimed philosopher and cognitive scientist Andy Clark unpacks this provocative new theory that the brain is a powerful, dynamic prediction engine, mediating our experience of both body and world. From the most mundane experiences to the most sublime, reality as we know it is the complex synthesis of sensory information and expectation. Exploring its fascinating mechanics and remarkable implications for our lives, mental health, and society, Clark nimbly illustrates how the predictive brain sculpts all human experience. Chronic pain and mental illness are shown to involve subtle malfunctions of our unconscious predictions, pointing the way towards more effective, targeted treatments. Under renewed scrutiny, the very boundary between ourselves and the outside world dissolves, showing that we are as entangled with our environments as we are with our onboard memories, thoughts, and feelings. And perception itself is revealed to be something of a controlled hallucination. Unveiling the extraordinary explanatory power of the predictive brain, The Experience Machine is a mesmerizing window onto one of the most significant developments in our understanding of the mind. 1945 FRANK SINATRA, KATHRYN GRAYSON, GENE KELLY
