Podcasts about Granik

WFTY-DT (channel 67) is a television station licensed to Smithtown, New York, United States, serving Long Island and owned by TelevisaUnivision. Its main channel broadcasts the True Crime Network; it also rebroadcasts the main channels of its New York City–area Univision and UniMás stations, WXTV-DT (channel 41) and WFUT-DT (channel 68), from its transmitter in Middle Island, New York. Channel 67 was originally assigned to Patchogue, New York, where television producer Theodore Granik obtained the construction permit for a new TV station in September 1968. Granik envisioned a group of ultra high frequency (UHF) stations carrying public affairs programming, but he died in 1970 with channel 67 unbuilt. The permit was acquired by the Suburban Broadcasting Corporation, which believed it could fill a void in providing news, sports, and entertainment programming from and for Long Island. On this basis, WSNL-TV began broadcasting on November 18, 1973. As much as 70 percent of its lineup consisted of live, local programming—a level far ahead of most stations—ranging from local news and sports to children's and cooking shows and a Long Island–set soap opera. The station struggled to build a viewer and advertiser base owing to reception difficulties—lampooned so frequently by Newsday writer Marvin Kitman that he was sued—and economic troubles. It left the air on June 20, 1975, and filed for bankruptcy the next year. In 1978, Canwest Capital Corporation, a Canadian company whose U.S. subsidiary Universal Subscription Television was in the subscription television (STV) business, paid off all of Suburban's debts in exchange for the rights to broadcast STV programming on channel 67. Canwest then entered into a joint venture with Wometco Enterprises, majority owner of channel 68 and operator of the Wometco Home Theater (WHT) STV service that served the New York City area and northern New Jersey. Beginning in June 1980, WSNL-TV began providing WHT on Long Island. Wometco terminated the joint venture in 1981 and became the sole owner of channel 67. At its peak, WHT served more than 111,000 subscribers and was the fourth-largest STV system in the nation. The death of Wometco majority owner Mitchell Wolfson in 1983 triggered a leveraged buyout by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts (KKR). As subscriptions declined due to rising cable penetration, Wometco sold off the WHT business but kept channels 68 and 67, which began broadcasting a music video service known as U68 on June 1, 1985. U68 was a locally programmed competitor to MTV with a more eclectic mix of music. The stations were put on the market in December 1985 because KKR executed a second leveraged buyout, this time of Storer Communications, and chose to retain Storer's cable systems in northern New Jersey and Connecticut over WWHT and WSNL-TV. The two stations were sold to the Home Shopping Network (HSN) as part of its foray into broadcasting; renamed WHSE and WHSI, they broadcast home shopping programming for the next 15 years. While an attempt by company owner Barry Diller to convert the stations to general-entertainment independents was slated as late as 2000, Diller ultimately sold WHSE and WHSI and other USA Broadcasting stations to Univision in 2001. Many of these stations formed the backbone of Telefutura (now UniMás), which launched in January 2002.

In this episode of the show we are joined by our good friend Hillary to talk about Leave No Trace, Debra Granik's drama about a man and his daughter living off the grid. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about Granik's filmmaking being rooted in sociopolitical activism, Ben Foster's performance as a traumatized vet and Thomasin McKenzie's understated brilliance., as well as the fact the general audiences did not respond to this film as well as critics did. We also talk again about PTSD, how state-backed safety nets have flaws, the importance of socialized upbringing of children and how a single visual may be worth more than a scene full of dialogue.

On Sunday May 23rd, 1954 at 6PM Eastern, The American Forum of the Air signed on Mutual with a discussion on the Supreme Court Decision of Brown versus The Board of Education. On May 17th, The Court ruled that racial segregation within the U.S. public school system was unconstitutional. It repealed the “separate but equal” doctrine from 1896. By the early 1950s the NAACP was filing lawsuits on behalf of plaintiffs in South Carolina, Virginia and Delaware, with Thurgood Marshall as attorney. In the most famous case, Oliver Brown filed suit against the Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas after his daughter, Linda Brown, was denied access to Topeka's all-white elementary schools. Brown claimed it violated the fourteenth Amendment. This case and four others eventually went before the U.S. Supreme court in December of 1952. At first, the justices were divided on how to rule. Chief Justice Fred M. Vinson felt the 1896 verdict should stand. But, he died in September of 1953 and President Eisenhower replaced him with California governor Earl Warren. Eisenhower knew this appointment would help overturn the nineteenth century verdict. In the decision, issued on May 17, 1954, Warren wrote that “in the field of public education the doctrine of ‘separate but equal' has no place,” as segregated schools are “inherently unequal.” Days after that decision, there was considerable debate in the media over whether desegregation was fair. In this episode of The American Forum, the debate is between Democrat Senator Paul Douglas of Illinois and Democrat Senator Price Daniel of Texas. The American Forum of the Air's roots were planted in Gimbels department store in 1928. Gimbels owned WGBS. Theodore Granik, a young law student who worked for Gimbels, did continuity, wrote dialogue, and reported sports events. He had an idea for a panel discussion on all kinds of legal issues. When the station was sold, WOR gave Granik a similar job. The American Forum of the Air premiered in 1934. By 1943, it had become a staple for those looking to stay abreast of socio-economics and politics. The format was tight. Proponents and opponents were allowed an opening statement; a panel discussion followed, questions were taken from the audience, and closing summations wrapped it all up. It was the only radio show printed verbatim in the Congressional Record and won a Peabody Award in 1949.

This week's guest is Recently named as one of “the 50 most influential women in the wine trade,” and as “a leading woman in wine,” Lisa Granik MW entered the field following an earlier career as a lawyer and law professor. Having worked in wine production, retail, import and distribution channels, she has worked with both small and large wholesalers and importers around the United States.

The history of Georgian wines can be traced back 8000 years but the modern Georgian wine industry its fairly young in the grand scheme of the world’s wines. It was only in the 80s when the Georgia opened up to western countries that their wines became influenced by modern techniques. My guest Lisa Granik, author of Georgia a Winemaking Country, describes the history and the regions of the country. A striking quote from Lisa’s book is - ‘the number of producers increased by double digits in the time writing the book’. This highlights that the country is rapidly changing with a greater global interest in their wines thanks to their unique techniques and grape variety. Now is a perfect time to learn about the regions in more depth. In this episode we discussed: The major native grapes (did you know there are more than 500 of them?!); the ancient amphoras called Qvevri or Churi, as I discovered while speaking to Lisa: Churi are Qvervri of west Georgia; What Lisa thinks is a great wine for those want to start exploring the country: lastly why Georgian grapes may play a bigger role in the years to come with the warming of the earth. As promised on the show here are the names of the grapes discussed:Saperavi produces rich dark red wines suitable for extended aging - Saperavi is one of the essential grapes used in Georgian red wines.OjaleshiOjaleshi is grown on the mountain slopes above the banks of the Tskhenistskali River, particularly in the Samegrelo region of Western Georgia.RkatsiteliRkatsiteli is responsible for both high-volume, good value whites, and high-quality examples – especially those fermented on the skins in qvevri. Rkatsiteli grapes have great acidity and good body. It’s produced in both traditional Georgian style and with European vinification methodsTsolikouri is the white grape of western Georgia. Pronounced tso-li-ko-u-ri, Imereti’s humidity makes it a challenging area for many grapes, but Tsolikouri is relatively thick-skinned which helps it to resist fungal diseases.

Brian Granik is a great person. He was super involved in the NJ scene back in the late 90s from promoting shows, being apart of Umbilical Records, playing with Houseboy and 5 Driver, and just always being front row to point that sweet finger of his up in the air when he sang along.  He was hesitant for a good amount of time until one day the stars aligned and he finally gave in. So I got him on Skype while we had many drinks and this is what we talked about: Going to school with other NJ punk rockers His thoughts on the scene itself Working at Hot Topic in the Rockaway Mall How Modesty Panel’s record got funded White Powdered Donuts Comp And a ton more Go check out houseofmerch.com which is run by Sean from Lanemeyer.

In episode forty-one of movies imo., Ben, Brandon, and Daniel yell over each other about LEAVE NO TRACE, Debra Granik's long-awaited return to feature filmmaking/the woods. Afterwards they climb up the family tree to discuss three more daddy-daughter stories in Peter Bogdanovich's PAPER MOON, Benh Zeitlan's BEASTS OF THE SOUTHERN WILD, and Maren Ade's TONI ERDMANN. Ben has little to say about the Granik but plenty of love for the way screenwriter Lucy Alibar weaves Hushpuppy's childlike perspective into very adult situations throughout BEASTS, Daniel has trouble remembering the name of Dale Dickey's character in WINTER'S BONE, and Brandon solves the lingering mystery of whatever happened to Woman Driver from LEAN ON PETE.

Debra Granik's new movie, ‘Leave No Trace' follows a father and daughter living completely off the grid, in the woods. Granik could have cast a big name to play the daughter, and perhaps gotten a bigger budget, but she says that's not how her style of filmmaking works. Instead, she went with an unknown teenager from New Zealand.

This week on TIFF Long Take, Rob and Geoff sit down with award winning independent film director and writer, Debra Granik. Granik, whose films include Down to the Bone and Winter’s Bone, is recognized as one of film’s great talent spotters, casting actors Jennifer Lawrence and Vera Farmiga in their star-making roles. Her latest film, Leave No Trace, starring Ben Foster and rising star Thomasin McKenzie, is playing now at TIFF Bell Lightbox. Granik discusses what she looks for most in her leading actors, how she’s able to spot talent in relatively unproven actors, and how she prepares her cast for such physically and emotionally demanding roles. She also talks about about why she chooses to set her films in less conventional locations like the Ozarks or the Oregon wilderness, the challenges of making films about the disenfranchised, and where in America she hopes her next film will take her.

Debra Granik is perhaps best known for her casting and direction of Jennifer Lawrence’s breakout role in WINTER’S BONE, which was nominated for an Oscar for Best Picture in 2011. In her latest, LEAVE NO TRACE, which premiered at Sundance earlier this year and is now hitting theaters, her casting is spot-on once again with a new young actress Thomasin McKenzie and actor Ben Foster of HELL OR HIGH WATER fame. In this episode, Liz Nord learned some of the secrets behind the organic feeling of her films, including fostering an environment throughout casting and production where every cast and crew member has a willingness of to be flexible and adaptive to changes in circumstance. Nord and Granik are joined by LEAVE NO TRACE producers Anne Rossellini and Anne Harrison to discuss how they cultivate this quality among their collaborators, the steps they had to take to shoot in an unpredictable outdoor environment, and lots more.

Will (Ben Foster) and his teenage daughter, Tom (Thomasin Harcourt McKenzie), have lived off the grid for years in the forests of Portland, Oregon. When their idyllic life is shattered, both are put into social services. After clashing with their new surroundings, Will and Tom set off on a harrowing journey back to their wild homeland. The film is directed by Debra Granik (Winter’s Bone) from a script adapted by Granik and Anne Rosellini and based on the novel My Abandonment by Peter Rock. Director Debra Granik joins us to talk about her modern day tale of two people grappling with a sense of place, loyalty, love, and deep wounds.

Benicio Del Toro joins us on the Truth & Movies sofa to discuss his role in the cartel crime saga Sicario 2: Soldado, the second part of a proposed trilogy. Michael Leader, Adam Woodward and Manuela Lazic are on hand to offer their thoughts on that film, as well as Debra Granik’s tender father-daughter survival story Leave No Trace, starring Ben Foster and impressive newcomer Thomasin McKenzie. It’s Granik’s first narrative feature since 2009’s Winter’s Bone, which gets a second pass from our expert panel in this week’s Film Club – just how good is Jennifer Lawrence’s breakout performance?

It's Thanksgiving time, and that's means it's time for families. But before you head to twitter to compete for the dysfunctional family Thanksgiving award, give this episode a listen. You thought your family caused problems when they get together? They've got nothin' on the families in this episode. First up is Jeremy Saulnier's sophomore film, BLUE RUIN. A tight, noir-ish thriller starring the talented Macon Blair. Dwight is a character mourning for his murdered mother and father. When the man who was convicted of the crime is released from jail, the awkward and quiet Dwight decides to take a vengeance most savage. Following that: John Hawkes and Jennifer Lawrence team up in this Ozark Mountain sleuthing noir. A years-ahead-of-her-age teen must track down her delinquent father or risk losing the family home. It's the Oscar nominated WINTER'S BONE rounding out this episode.

Debra Granik is the Academy-award nominated director and writer of Winter’s Bone, which features a young Jennifer Lawrence in a gripping story set in the Ozarks. Winter's Bone won several awards including the Grand Jury Prize for Dramatic Film at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival. It also received four 2011 Academy Award nominations: Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actress and Best Supporting Actor. Previously, she wrote and directed Down to the Bone, starring Vera Farmiga. Her narrative work is heavily influenced by real life and real people. So it makes sense that recently Debra has found herself exploring the non-fiction world. She recently released Stray Dog, a contemplative portrait of Ron 'Stray Dog' Hall: biker, Vietnam Vet, and lover of small dogs. It has screened over 60 times around the world and was nominated for a 2015 Film Independent Spirit Award for Best Documentary. In this episode, Debra talks about learning her craft from politically-active women in the 1970s, being inspired by real life, where ideas come from, how stories take seed, and the ins and outs of her many productions. Granik reflects on her past, present, and the future of the industry. SHE DOES PODCAST, hosted by Elaine Sheldon and Sarah Ginsburg, is a bi-weekly show featuring creative women. We hold live discussions with each of guests, one week after each show releases, where you get to ask your questions.
