Olivia Wilde's third film, The Invite, comes to theaters later this week and to mark the occasion, she joins Chloe in the studio. The movie, which is a remake of the Spanish film called The People Upstairs, tells the story of a couple who invite their neighbors over for dinner. Hijinks ensue! She and Chloe began by talking about the confluence of their children and their work. Wilde describes her children as being extremely influential and involved in her work. “They really feel like they have a strong handle on, like, the marketplace,” she laughed.They then dug into both her third directorial work as well as her upcoming role as an artist and dominatrix in Gregg Araki's I Want Your Sex. The elephant in the room of that topic was the May-December romance—she plays a woman who becomes involved sexually with a much younger man. When asked if she drew at all from personal experience in the role she explained: “I think that experiencing the double standards firsthand has been fascinating from an anthropological standpoint. And it is so much more egregious than I think I ever really thought. People have such a double standard about what we allow women to do in this world when it comes to romance.”Also on today's episode, Chloe and Chioma chat about Chioma's new newsletter Nnadi by Nature, the Coco Gauff Miu Miu x New Balance collaboration, and the launch of Vogue a la Mode at Morgenstern's ice cream shop in the Lower East Side.

Just a couple of episodes ago, we were praising Steven Spielberg as one of our greatest living filmmakers. Then we watched Disclosure Day, and might have to roll back some of those compliments. We gush over Blue Heron, the extraordinary memory piece from Sophy Romvari. And inspired by Romvari's sophisticated approach to exploring her own childhood experiences – both real and imagined – through cinema, we discuss some other films that dig into the concept and aesthetics of memory in interesting ways. And finally, we get excited about our upcoming screening of Gregg Araki's Nowhere on 28 June at GFT, which will be followed by an on-stage discussion.

For this Out Takes, we put the spotlight on three queer filmmakers whose films are featured in this year's Sydney Film Festival which is on now until June 14. First up, we spoke with Gregg Araki, the legendary gay filmmaker whose latest film ‘I Want Your Sex’ is a queer highlight in this year's Sydney Film Festival program. Noted for his involvement with the New Queer Cinema movement, his filmography includes the Teenage Apocalypse film trilogy from the 90’s and his 2010 film Kaboom was also the inaugural winner of the Queer Palm at the Cannes Film Festival. His latest film stars Olivia Wilde, Cooper Hoffman and Charli XCX in what has been described as an enjoyably outrageous, risqué sex-comedy, set in the Los Angeles contemporary art scene. We jumped at the chance to speak with him and in this interview, we discussed his motivation for telling this story, his influence on the lead characters and how he feels now about being labelled one of the pioneers of New Queer Cinema. Next up, we took a look at ‘Joy Boy: A Tribute To Julius Eastman’ which is described as a prismatic, polyphonic tribute by six artists to the prolific visionary queer African American composer and noted as one of the unsung pioneers of 20th century minimalism. Created by a collective of Belgian-Congolese artists, this spell-binding film channels the radical energy of Julius Eastman, a Black, gay iconoclast who challenged the conventions of minimalism, fusing avant-garde techniques with pop and free jazz in 1970s and ’80s New York. Structured in four chapters, the film honours Eastman’s key works through incredible visuals, archival recordings and exuberant choreography. Two of the people involved in the project are curator, researcher, and artist Mawena Yehouessi who positions herself as a “collisionist,” stating she explores the frictions and assemblages between disciplines, formats, and narratives; and composer, artist, and performer Fallon Manyanja who in her work mobilizes different relationships with our environment and social, inter-relational, and self-reflexive ideas. W caught up with the real-life couple online from their Paris apartment to discuss the project in the lead up to it screening at this year's Sydney Film Festival and we discussed how they first came to know about Julius Eastman and his work, their process in bringing these stories together to explore his prolific career and more. The post Sydney Film Festival 2026 with special guests Gregg Araki, Mawena Yehouessi and Fallon Manyanja appeared first on Out Takes.

For this week's episode, we have two guests: Andrew Klaus-Vineyard and Daniel Talbott are the directors of a new documentary short called Welcome to Tool Shed, which opens to the door to an iconic leather bar in Palm Springs. They're just back from showing the film at Cannes, and it'll be popping up at film festivals around the world in the coming months. Daniel and Andrew are longtime collaborators, first with daring theater projects, then with queer horror, and now with a documentary about how a generation that never expected to be senior citizens, and what they have to teach us about not just enduring difficult times, but thriving.
With his latest film ‘I Want Your Sex’ about to have its Australian Premiere at the Sydney Film Festival, we jumped at the opportunity to speak with Gregg Araki about the film, its incredible cast and more. Noted for his involvement with the New Queer Cinema movement, Gregg Araki’s filmography includes the Teenage Apocalypse film trilogy from the 90’s, consisting of Totally F***ed Up, The Doom Generation and Nowhere, all which have been heralded as cult classics. His 2010 film Kaboom was also the inaugural winner of the Queer Palm at the Cannes Film Festival. His latest film stars Olivia Wilde, Cooper Hoffman and Charli XCX in what has been described as an enjoyably outrageous, risqué sex-comedy, set in the Los Angeles contemporary art scene. For this Out Takes Extra, we discussed his motivation for telling this story, his influence on the lead characters and how he feels now about being labelled one of the pioneers of New Queer Cinema. As expected, he is full of great stories and insights, so we highly recommend you listen to this then book your tickets immediately for ‘I Want Your Sex’ at the Sydney Film Festival before they sell-out!

Alberto Giacometti "Woman with Her Throat Cut (Femme égorgée)" serves as the ekphrastic inspiration for Kasischke's poem of the same name. View the artwork here. Giacometti completed the sculpture in 1932 and used bronze cast. Dimensions are 22.00 x 87.50 x 53.50 cm (or roughly 8.5 x 34.5 x 21 inches). Lucy Flint writes that the human figure is treated brutally in Giacometti's piece, and the woman appears in insectlike form. Woman with Her Throat Cut "is a particularly vicious image: the body is splayed open, disemboweled, arched in a paroxysm of sex and death. The psychological torment and the sadistic misogyny projected by this sculpture are in startling contrast to the serenity of other contemporaneous pieces by Giacometti, such as Woman Walking."

Hot off the news that he's just sold one million copies of his books, my wonderfully talented friend, KING OF ASHES and ALL THE SINNERS BLEED novelist S.A. Cosby returns to the pod this week for a delightful episode Gen Xers in particular will love. Listen in as we wax nostalgic, nerdy, & philosophical about the American independent film scene, video stores, actors with faces, Sundance, the New Queer Cinema movement, & iconoclastic filmmakers of the 1990s. We started with groundbreaking director Gregg Araki's TEEN APOCALYPSE TRILOGY, then went everywhere, & obviously, fittingly, NOWHERE. The three main films in the trilogy that we discuss are TOTALLY F***ED UP, THE DOOM GENERATION, and NOWHERE, but we bring in myriad other films, directors, and actors from this terrific era that valued original voices and stories that no one else could tell.Orginally Posted on Patreon (5/14/26) here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/158267662Donate to the Pod via Ko-fi & PayPal Shop Watch With Jen logo Merchandise in Logo Designer Kate Gabrielle's Threadless ShopTheme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music Archive
I dagens episode introduserer Runar og Julie Karin for den vidunderlige rare verdenen til den nye skeive filmbevegelsen på 1990-tallet, og en av dens nøkkelpersoner, filmskaper Gregg Araki. Vi diskuterer alt fra romvesener til kommunisme, og hva som kjennetegner Araki som filmskaper. Filmene som diskuteres i dagens epiosde er Nowhere (1997), Mysterious Skin (2004) og Smiley Face (2007).
Påskeferie er ferdig, og vi er tilbake! Denne uken har vi sett Nowhere (1997), fra Gregg Araki's "Teen Apocalypse"-triologi, som vi sammen prøver å tolke og forstå. Samuel forteller også om The Drama, og til slutt tar vi igjen leken hvor vi må gjette filmnavn fra antonymer. Vanskelig å forklare, lytt om du er interessert.

**Come see WTO/99 at The Balboa Theater SF on Sunday, April 26th 7:30pm, hosted by Hit Factory featuring a post-screening Q&A w/ director Ian Bell. Tickets are available here.**Prolific filmmaker Alice Maio Mackay joins us to discuss her newest feature The Serpent's Skin (expanding this week to Los Angeles and San Francisco) alongside the high-gloss, sugary sweet, and characteristically transgressive Gregg Araki film Splendor. Structured as a prototypical romantic comedy, the film subverts the classic love triangle dynamic to explore the unique dynamics and language of intimacy that develops between a romantically committed threesome. We begin with a discussion of Alice's latest film The Serpent's Path - a lush, bold trans lesbian fantasy that wears its debts to teen classics like The Craft and Buffy the Vampire Slayer proudly on its sleeve. Then, we dive into the 90s work of Gregg Araki, and how Splendor subverts the expectations laid by the director's previous films in the Teen Apocalypse trilogy while losing none of the director's antagonisms toward the stricutres of heteronormative American society. Finally, we interrogate the film's subtle complexities, how Araki navigates the shifting dynamics of the threesome within the language of the romcom, and how the film pushes past the trap of "selling out vs. buying in" customary to so many films of the decade.

Le Vinyle revient en force cette année avec une émission toute de vert vêtue !! Après 2 étés bratesques à souhait et une annonce d'un nouvel album imminent de la part de Charli XCX (intitulé "Wuthering Heights" et qui se trouve être la bande originale de la version des Hauts de Hurlevent d'Emerald Fennell), la question de l'image et des références et inspirations cinéma semblait essentielle. Elle-même descendant directement de Gregg Araki dans la famille des Brat, mais nous nous prêterons aussi à une analyse de son compte Letterboxd, des réfs à Harmony Korine (Spring Breakers) ou à Lolita Malgré Moi (Mean Girls), des compositions pour le Bottoms d'Emma Seligman ou le Barbie de Greta Gerwig, ....

This week- a pair of films with strong female characters and their lovers being caught up in another man's violence. Driving home from a club, Amy and Jordan pick up magnetic drifter X. Soon they find themselves on the run through a deadpan pastiche of early 90s America. The 2023 director's cut of a totally heterosexual film by Gregg Araki that already left a massive transgressive shadow over generations of indie filmmakers, The Doom Generation. Violeta, a popular featured dancer at a Mexico City cabaret, rescues a newborn left in a red-light district trash can. Refusing to give up the infant, Violeta starts down a path that will bring violence and loss to those around her. A musical melodrama from the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema with gorgeous cinematography by Gabriel Figuerao, highlighting his incredible handling of chiaroscuro, and a powerhouse performance from Ninón Sevilla, Victimas del Pecado (English title: Victims of Sin). All that while Craig and Kevin build a man, Dave tears him apart, and Tyler irons his US flag bed spread. Join us, won't you? Episode 439- A Nihilist and a Dancer Walk into a Bar
Today on the show, I discuss the provocative, groundbreaking "Teen Apocalypse" trilogy from New Queer Cinema icon Gregg Araki: Totally Fucked Up, The Doom Generation, and Nowhere. Set in the hazy wastelands of Los Angeles, the films follow various groups of teens who explore drugs, sex, television, and societal collapse through deadpan humor and witty observations on the end of the world.follow and subscribe to the show on your favorite platform via the link below:https://linktr.ee/martynstrangeSupport me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/martynstrange Hosted on Acast.

“It's Armageddon Day. The day the world's supposed to end”On today's episode, we're closing out our coverage of the Gregg Araki's Teenage Apocalypse Trilogy by covering the final film in that trilogy, Nowhere (1997).Joining me for this episode is my buddy and critic extraordinaire, Rocco T. Thompson. Tune in to hear us talk about this fabulous movie and why it's still relevant to this day.Article Referenced:Cover Story: Going ‘Nowhere' Fast With Gregg Araki, Kerosene Jones, Wussy Vol 12, October 13th, 2023CLICK HEREIntro/Outro Music: "Phantom Fun" by Jonathan Boyle----Show E-Mail: cultcinemacircle@gmail.comFollow Rocco on Instagram, Twitter and LetterboxdRead Articles Written By Rocco at AuthoryFollow Cult Cinema Circle on Instagram, Bluesky, and Letterboxd Hosted on Acast.

This week, we dive into Gregg Araki's The Doom Generation (1995), a neon-soaked, blood-splattered road movie that's equal parts satire, nightmare, and Gen X fever dream. Following the nihilistic trio of Jordan, Amy, and Xavier as they spiral through a world of violence, sex, and black humor, Araki crafts a brutal portrait of lost youth at the edge of America's cultural meltdown.We unpack the film's shocking violence, its biting commentary on consumerism and morality, and how it fits within Araki's “Teenage Apocalypse Trilogy.” From its campy dialogue to its disturbing finale, we ask: is The Doom Generation pure provocation, or does it reveal something deeper about identity, alienation, and the rage of a generation?If you're ready to confront a film that MTV once called “the first true Gen X movie,” buckle up—this ride is messy, grotesque, and unforgettable.Show E-Mail: cultcinemacircle@gmail.comFollow Bobby on InstagramFollow Cult Cinema Circle on Instagram, Bluesky, and Letterboxd Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, we dive into Gregg Araki's Totally Fucked Up (1993), the raw, DIY cornerstone of his Teenage Apocalypse Trilogy. Blurring the lines between documentary-style confessional and narrative chaos, the film follows a group of queer teens navigating love, alienation, and survival in early '90s Los Angeles. We unpack its fragmented structure, its unfiltered portrayal of youth on the margins, and the way Araki captures both the aimlessness and urgency of adolescence.

Megan and Dave are a duo again this week (Evan returns next week!), and they tackle SWEET RELIEF (2:57), a movie being marketed as "mumblegore." Like mumblecore! (Get it?) What did we think? Here's the short version: Could have used a lot more gore and a lot less mumble. And then Megan and Dave move on to SORRY, BABY (23:48), Eva Victor's debut as writer-director. And here's the CliffsNotes on it: Best movie of 2025 thus far. No hyperbole. Both of us were moved to tears more than once. Its performances, pacing, and storytelling are all top-notch, and Victor, while giving a great performance themself, gets superior work from the entire cast. It's not to be missed. Over on Patreon, we talk about our June poll winner, Gregg Araki's MYSTERIOUS SKIN.
"Ever feel like reality is more twisted than dreams?"The Wives Colangelo are closing out Pride Month by introducing Harmony to the punk rock cinematic world of Gregg Araki and celebrating 30 years of THE DOOM GENERATION. Sometimes being a teenager feels like looking down the end of the world, and no one understands that feeling quite like Xavier Red, Jordan White, and Amy Blue. Let's talk about this middle finger to American conservatism, pro-polyamory, bisexual disasterpiece. This isn't queer as in "love is love," but it is most certainly queer as in f*ck you.----Become a Patron!https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom----MONTHLY SUPPORT SPOTLIGHTalQaws for Sexual and Gender Diversity and Queers in Palestine (https://alqaws.org/)----Follow the Show: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo: @Veloci_trap_tor / @HarmonyColangelo on Bluesky----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/
As Pride Month draws to a close, we wanted to devote a Criterion episode to a Gregg Araki film, as he's associated with the New Queer Cinema movement. We chose 1997's Nowhere, a fun, bizarre, subversive disaffected youth movie that just screams 1990s.
This week, Bella is joined by special guests Melia and Henry Chendo to celebrate Pride with a look at Gregg Araki's Teen Apocalypse Trilogy:Totally F***ed Up (1993)The Doom Generation (1995)Nowhere (1997)A trailblazer of New Queer Cinema, Araki captured the chaos of queer youth in the '90s like no one else. These films are loud, sexy, surreal, and devastating — soaked in color, contradiction, and emotion.In this episode, we talk about his portrayal of the queer experience through his signature thematic and aesthetic style — how he balances camp comedy with emotional darkness, and how sex, love, drugs, violence, and warped reality all collide in his stories.There's a constant tension in these films between disconnection and desire, between the feeling of being completely lost and the desperate need to be seen. Araki doesn't offer clean resolutions or easy answers — his stories unravel in fragments, in bursts of color and chaos. Still, somewhere in the wreckage, he makes room for vulnerability, longing, and the aching need to be understood.Happy Pride!

I'm so very excited to talk to the person behind one of my fav accounts on instagram, @90svalley. Most of the time I feel like what they post is right on my wavelength at the time. We both love the erotic thriller movies of the 80s and 90s. Of course we had to get straight into our faves and what we think of where the genre is now and what it needs to do going forward. The topics of Sam Levinson, Gen Z and Millennials, and the directors that we love among tons of other things!

Click here to send us a message!This week we're joined by film scholar Syd Wrigley, who joins the podcast to discuss Gregg Araki's famed Teen Apocalypse Trilogy. Starting with Totally Fucked Up in 1993, he followed it with The Doom Generationin 1995 and finally Nowhere in 1997, the trilogy that would define a generation and stands at the center of the New Queer Cinema movement. Recently re-released via Criterion, these films are being discovered by a brand new generation, and Araki is only now finding auteur status.
Április 10-én bejelentették az idei cannes-i hivatalos program nagy részét, pár nappal később Onozó Robival kitárgyaltuk a versenyszekcióba került összes filmet, kitértünk a mellékszekciók felhozatalára, latolgattuk, hogy mi kerülhet még be, elmerengtünk azon, hogy mi történhetett a magyar filmekkel, illetve megvitattuk, hogy miket várunk a legjobban.Még két dolog.Itt lehet megnézni azt a kisfilmet, ami alapján a nyitófilm készült: https://www.arte.tv/en/videos/095687-000-A/bye-bye-partir-un-jour/Azóta kijött a Rendezők kéthete programja, Gregg Araki filmje nem került be, Christian Petzold és Robin Campillo filmje viszont igen.Ezt az adást egy konkrét rádióstúdióban vettük fel, több százezer forintos mikrofonokkal, mégis úgy hallatszik, mintha két damillal összekötött gyufásskatulyán keresztül beszélgetnénk. Sajnáljuk!Jó szórakozást az adáshoz, és ha tetszik, kérlek támogasd a Filmklub podcastot a Patreonon, egy dollár is nagy segítség! Ha a Patreon túl macerás, támogathatod a podcastot a PayPalon (@ferencv1976) vagy a Revoluton (@ferenc7drh) keresztül is. Nagyon köszönöm!
A banger of a Q&A this week!

This past Tuesday, December 17th, celebrated the birthday of filmmaker and UCSB alum Gregg Araki. Back in March of this year, we were joined with Araki at the Pollock Theatre for a screening of his newly restored 90s classic, Nowhere, in addition to a Q&A. This event was co-sponsored by UCSB's film and media studies program, and our very own KCSB-FM. Araki is known for directing films such as Mysterious Skin, The Doom Generation, Smiley Face, his work on the show 13 Reasons Why, amongst other films. His film ‘Nowhere', along with the other films within his Teen Apocalypse Trilogy have recently been remastered and restored from the 35mm negative to 4k. It's complete with scenes that were deleted for the original release due to rating restrictions, and the original score. KCSB's Kelly Darroch spoke with Araki for a few minutes after the screening and Q&A!

Look out for UFOs and stay away from Froot Loops because we're discussing Gregg Araki's tender-yet-traumatizing adaptation Mysterious Skin (2004). Tagging in for the conversation is RogerEbert.com Assistant Editor and The Spool founder & EIC Clint Worthington. Join us as we have many difficult conversations about a film filled to the brim with controversial subject matter.
