Podcast appearances and mentions of Guy Pearce

Nuevo episodio de Par-Impar destinado esta vez a Memento, la primera gran joya de Christopher Nolan que nos preparaba para el siglo XXI. Memento supuso la gran carta de presentación de Christopher Nolan de cara a convertirse en el gran director del Hollywood del siglo XXI. Y realmente casi todo él está ya en esta pequeña producción de intriga y suspense donde podemos encontrar sus típicos protagonistas masculinos, obsesiones y juegos temporales. En Memento, Guy Pearce es un exagente de seguros que ha perdido la memoria reciente e investiga el asesinato de su esposa. Ayudándose de sus notas y tatuajes, que le ayudan a recordar lo esencial, el peculiar investigador se ve envuelto en una intriga repleta de dudosos personajes mientras lucha por recordar y encajar las piezas de su pasado... piezas que la película nos va presentando litearlmente al revés. En efecto, Memento es la película que "avanza hacia atrás". Y así lo cuentan Dani Palacios y Juanma González en este nuevo podcast de Par-Impar de esRadio.

Uspešen poslovnež in ekscentrični tehnološki izumitelj srednjih let Karsh Relikh po smrti svoje lepe žene Becce, ki je umrla zaradi raka, česar Karsh ne more preboleti, razvije revolucionarno tehnologijo. Mrtvaški prt, nekakšen 3D digitalni skener, svojcem omogoča spremljanje razgradnje človeškega telesa po pokopu. Za ta posebna pokopališča se začne zanimati več mest in investitorjev po svetu, vendar pa neko noč neznanci oskrunijo več grobov, tudi tistega, v katerem je pokopana Becca. Karsh se odloči priti zadevi do dna, a na tej poti vedno bolj drsi v vrtinec preganjavice. 81-letni David Cronenberg pravi, da je celovečerec Mrtvaški prt, premierno predstavljen lani v Cannesu, njegov najbolj oseben in intimen doslej. V filmu je, kot v večini njegovih del, nekaj hipnotičnega, gleda se ga s cmokom v grlu in nejevero, kot mešanico morbidnosti in romantike. Kot futuristično reinterpretacijo Edgarja Allana Poeja ali Frankensteina Mary Shelley, ki bi ga brali od konca proti začetku. Mrtvaški prt je Cronenbergova meditacija o smrti in telesnosti, o bližini in obsedenosti, o voajerizmu in mislih, ki jih običajno odrivamo stran. Za Cronenberga je bila umetnost vedno tudi poligon za preizkušanje meja – tudi meja biologije, družbe in vsega, čemur pravimo »človeško«. Film se skuša odzivati na naš čas s svojo digitalno paranojo, mrežnimi povezavami, v katere bi lahko bila združena ta pokopališča, mednarodnim vohunjenjem, Rusi in Kitajci, biomedicinsko manipulacijo in globalnim nadzorom. Mimogrede, večina vrhunske tehnologije, ki jo uporabljamo v vsakdanjem življenju, je bila razvita v vojaške namene, vključno s svetovnim spletom. Vse to brbota nekje v ozadju Karsheve zasebne zgodbe. Ja, Mrtvaškemu prtu lahko očitamo, da je ob vsej svoji drznosti tudi nekakšen Cronenbergov »the best of«. Zdi se, da je iz vsakega svojega dela pobral po nekaj idej. Res veliko je dialogov in ne najboljše igre; kljub temu, da v osrednjih vlogah nastopajo Vincent Cassel, Diane Kruger in Guy Pearce, so vsi malce leseni, karikirani. Rigor mortis kot koncept? Če smo že omenili Poeja, mi pride ob tem pristopu na misel še B-filmski kralj Roger Corman ... Kakorkoli, celovečercev, ki bi idejno dražili gledalce, je danes bolj malo; Mrtvaški prt je tako antipod oskarjevske slavljenke Anore. Gre tudi za metafilm o sobivanju živih in mrtvih ter sobivanju notranjega in zunanjega sveta, kar je ena od rdečih niti Cronenbergovega opusa. Ta razume film tudi kot stroj za oživljanje duhov, in dejansko je v Mrtvaškem prtu nekaj elegičnega. Zdi se, kot da bi zadnji kader leta med oblake naznanil tudi avtorjevo dokončno slovo od filmskega ustvarjanja. Recenzijo je pripravil Gorazd Trušnovec, bere Igor Velše.

The film involves grieving tech entrepreneur Karsh (played brilliantly by Vincent Cassel) who has developed the means to surveil the dead in their tombs, including his recently deceased wife. After a series of grave defacements in the cemetery plot he owns, and in which his wife is buried, Karsh ventures down a rabbit hole of conspiracies technological, geopolitical, and psychosexual seeking answers in an increasingly indeterminate reality.We attempt to unpack this rich text with an examination of Cronenberg's perspectives on our hypermediated present, and how the constant hum of "connectedness" becomes an impedement to our ability to process our own traumas. Then, we explore the films labyrinthine narrative, weaving an intricate - a deliberately unresolvable - web of various plots, evoking the derealization of our interconnected age of information overload. Finally, we explore the films nuanced, mature eroticism, and illuminate why Cronenberg is the master of making non-cinematic sex feel simultaneously trenchant and deeply arousing.The Roxie theater in San Francisco is still seeking funds to help buy their building!

On the Saturday April 19, 2025 edition of The Richard Crouse Show we meet Dr. Janet McMordie. She is a sports medicine physician who blends her medical expertise with a passion for the arts. During the pandemic, she embarked on a simultaneous journey into storytelling, discovering a revitalized connection to her creativity. She shifted from a tunnel-visioned medical career to explore improv, acting, and producing. We talk about medicine, acting, her award-winning Second Act Actors podcast and much more. Then, David Cronenberg. The Village Voice called him "the most audacious and challenging narrative director in the English-speaking world.” He has directed horror films, dramas, psychological thrillers and gangster films, like “Shivers,” “Scanners,” “Videodrome,” “The Fly,” “A History of Violence,” “Eastern Promises” and “The Dead Zone” among many others. Seven of his films were selected to compete for the Palme d'Or, the most recent being “The Shrouds,” which was screened at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival. Starring Vincent Cassel, Diane Kruger and Guy Pearce, “The Shrouds” explores the future of death. Casserl plays a “an innovative businessman and grieving widower, who builds a novel device to connect with the dead inside a burial shroud. This burial tool installed at his own state-of-the-art though controversial cemetery allows him and his clients to watch their specific departed loved one decompose in real time.” It's an unsettling idea for a film, but it is a powerful and ultimately therapeutic look at grief in its many forms.

The 2002 adaptation of The Count of Monte Cristo is a solid, straightforward retelling of Alexandre Dumas' classic revenge tale. Split cleanly into three acts — betrayal, imprisonment, and revenge — the film plays it safe with its structure and storytelling. It doesn't dig too deep into subplots or character complexities, instead choosing to keep its focus tight on Edmond Dantès' transformation from naïve sailor to calculating count.While Jim Caviezel and Guy Pearce carry the film as the central rivals, the most captivating performance comes from Richard Harris as Abbé Faria. His brief time on screen injects the film with heart and wisdom, creating one of the film's standout segments. The score is dramatic and sweeping, adding emotional depth where the script occasionally plays it a little too straight. There are a few memorable moments scattered throughout, but the film never strays far from the expected path.Though it may not be groundbreaking, The Count of Monte Cristo remains an entertaining, well-produced period adventure. Still, it's the kind of movie that's easy to miss — or forget — if you're not looking for it.Stick around until the end for a round of Movie 20 Questions.Safe travels, nomads.

A new film by David Cronenberg is always a major event for all of us at Film Comment, especially after his 2022 opus Crimes of the Future was voted the Best Film of the Year by our contributors. So with Cronenberg's latest, The Shrouds, opening in cinemas this weekend, we invited this singular auteur to talk about his strange and thrilling new movie.  Like much of Cronenberg's work, The Shrouds is obsessed with sex and death, body and technology. But it's also funnier and more personal than almost anything the Canadian filmmaker has made before. Written in the wake of his wife Carolyn Cronenberg's death, the film follows a grieving entrepreneur named Karsh (Vincent Cassell), who has invented software that allows people to monitor the decaying bodies of their deceased loved ones. When some of Karsh's high-tech graves are vandalized, a complicated mystery arises, embroiling a number of eccentric characters—including the lookalike sister of Karsh's dead wife, played by Diane Kruger, and her ex-husband, a software developer played by Guy Pearce. As questions and conspiracies proliferate in the film, answers become more and more elusive. In the process, The Shrouds emerges as an extremely intelligent and moving film about our desperation for explanations in the face of the unknowable. For today's episode, Film Comment Editors Devika Girish and Clinton Krute chat with Cronenberg about making art to process loss, the eroticism of conspiracy theories, and why The Shrouds is very much a Toronto film.

Join out hosts for the 83rd Best Picture winner, A King's Speech. Ian and Maggie both appreciated the top notch performances, and understated but deftly executed visuals.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Film critic Jordan Hoffman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's Daily Briefing, a bonus episode of our weekly What Matters Now podcast series. Ahead of the 2025 Academy Awards on Sunday night, The Times of Israel’s film critic gives his predictions on which of the five films related to Israel or the Jews will have any chance of taking home a statue. We hear about how the ongoing war in Gaza is creating off-screen drama for a film, “September 5,” that has nothing to do with the current conflict but dares to show Israel as a victim after the country’s athletes were massacred in the 1972 Munich Olympics. Hoffman weighs in on the merits of “A Real Pain” and pronounces it an excellent addition to the pantheon of Jewish film. About “The Brutalist,” he has some reservations, although he applauds the film overall. We learn how the Bob Dylan biopic may not have anything really overtly Jewish about it, but that it’s not a slam to Members of the Tribe. And finally, Hoffman discusses the Palestinian/Jewish Israeli co-production that is hardly a coexistence project, but rather a “From the River to the Sea” production. And so this week, we ask Jordan Hoffman what matters now. Please see today's ongoing live blog for more updates.

FIRST 37:00: Spoiler-Free Review with our See It/Skip It Verdict AFTER 37:00: Full Spoiler Review Another Oscar week See It or Skip It has us exploring this year's Best Picture field a little deeper by diving into the striking The Brutalist (2024), now playing in select theaters. Directed by Brady Corbet and starring Adrien Brody, Felicity Jones, and Guy Pearce, this sweeping historical drama promises to blend grand ambition with intimate storytelling. Join Ian and Hermes as we step into the austere world of The Brutalist to see if it delivers a compelling, thought-provoking portrait of art and survival or if it buckles under the weight of its own vision. Does it bring a fresh perspective to historical dramas while exploring deeper themes, or does it rely too heavily on its style without enough structural integrity? We'll examine the film's storytelling—What larger themes and ideologies does it lean into? Is it a deeply personal immigrant story, a meditation on artistic resilience, or something else entirely? How does Adrien Brody's performance anchor the film, and does he bring the emotional depth needed for such a role? And how does Felicity Jones complement or contrast him?  We'll also break down the film's visual and atmospheric elements. Did the stark cinematography and production design elevate the film's themes, or did they overshadow its emotional core?  Finally, we'll debate whether The Brutalist achieves its ambitious goals. Does it leave a lasting impact as a modern cinematic statement, or does it feel too detached for its own good?  Yes, it's clever but is it fair to ask a film to 'get' a movie on such an abstract level? We'll tackle all these questions as we dissect the movie and tell you if we think you should SEE IT or SKIP IT!

Brady Corbet (Vox Lux) has directed a three and a half hour sprawling tale of a Jewish architect named Laszlo (Adrian Brody) who has escaped religious persecution in World War II Europe to come to America.  This epic drama kicks off with him arriving at Ellis Island in epic fashion, then restarting his career in Pennsylvania where he encounters a local industrialist named Van Buren (Guy Pearce) who hires him to take on increasingly larger projects.  Complications ensue as Laszlo achieves success but also struggles to adapt to an environment which can often be hostile to him, even more-so after his wife Erzsebet (Felicity Jones) is finally able to emigrate from Europe to join him.  Since being screened throughout the festival circuit last year (initially without a distributor), this film has received wide acclaim.  It has also recently received ten Oscar nominations including for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Supporting Actor.  But is it WORTHY of such acclaim?    Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

In the 400th episode of The Rewind, Josh is joined by recurring guests Elijah Howard and Ben Luben to discuss one of the biggest and most epic films of 2024, "The Brutalist." They discuss how impressive it was that writer/director Brady Corbet made a film feel so large in scope on such a small budget, the film's priorities with respect to depicting the ways the 1% try and control those who are more creative than them, the performances from an impressive cast that include Adrien Brody, Felicity Jones and Guy Pearce, the AI controversy surrounding the film and much more! Spoilers start at 52:10!

The veteran Aussie actor and first-time Oscar nominee reflects on how a childhood tragedy may have set him on the path to becoming an actor; how his experience with early TV stardom influenced the sorts of projects that he did and didn't pursue after he established himself internationally via 'L.A. Confidential' and 'Memento'; and why he's as proud of his latest film as any he has been a part of. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's incredibly easy to overpraise something like Brady Corbet's The Brutalist just for its degree of difficulty and the unlikelihood of it even existing, but it's the real deal: a living Great American Novel plucked from time. We sit down and review the three-and-a-half-hour epic - complete with intermission - and discuss its performances, ambition, and staggering scope.

Our latest guest on Soundtracking is Daniel Blumberg, who might, by the time you're listening to this, have picked up a BAFTA for his incredible score to The Brutalist. It's Friday morning as we record this, so who knows what Sunday will bring (or indeed Oscar Night)? Regardless, Daniel has done an extraordinary job of providing the sonic backdrop to what is truly an extraordinary film. Edith was lucky enough to speak to writer / director Brady Corbett and one of his leads, Guy Pearce, a few weeks back, so do listen to that if you haven't already. Both go into great detail about the nuances of Daniel's work. But who better to really dive deep with than the man himself? 

This episode has us reviewing The Brutalist, starring Adrien Brody, Felicity Jones, and Guy Pearce and directed by Brady Corbet! We did we like and dislike about this 3 hr and 35 minute epic? Tune in to find out! Also before our Brutalist discussion, we talk about the Super Bowl and Kendrick Lamar's halftime show performance.Follow the show on social media!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow our YouTube Channel:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@PodcastSilver⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Letterboxd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jared⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Katie⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Be sure to rate and review the show wherever you listen!

I already forgot today's breaking news but guess whose book is making the rounds... that's right, Josh Gad! Plus, Scheana Shay wrote a book, Lukas Gage wrote a book and Hilaria Baldwin wrote... that's right, another book! Everyone's writing! Except for Lori Harvey — she's posing for Playboy! Meanwhile, Taylor Zakhar-Perez is posing for LaCoste (undies), Gracie Abram's fans are trying to get her opener (Dora Jar) off the tour and Kesha is posing topless with her (R.I.P.) cat. Taylor Kitsch moved to Montana, Tan France cut his pompadour, Guy Pearce is single... Blake Griffin is marrying Frankie's Bikinis... Olivia Wilde is dating the Predator (Hey! He's 6'8"!) and JoJo is dating an Australian named Kath. That's kind of it for today. Love you!
