Inception is a nearly perfect film. It reinvented the summer blockbuster, proved a two-and-a-half-hour original movie about dream architecture could nearly make a billion dollars, and it's the reason Christopher Nolan gets to do whatever he wants in Hollywood. Richard Lewis, Thorin, and MonteCristo kick off the Christopher Nolan arc with his best original film, the Hans Zimmer score that might be the best since Gladiator, and the one flaw that reveals a fundamental limitation in everything Nolan makes.

THE MIRACLE OF DUNKIRK... AS ONLY CHRISTOPHER NOLAN COULD TELL IT. As our journey toward Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey continues, Tara Erickson, Jackie Bonsignore & Paige Kimsey experience Dunkirk (2017) for the first time, reacting to one of Nolan's most immersive and intense war films. From the breathtaking beach evacuation, Tom Hardy's unforgettable Spitfire mission, Hans Zimmer's relentless ticking score, and the film's innovative nonlinear storytelling to its emotional finale, this Dunkirk reaction is a gripping cinematic experience. Dunkirk Reaction (Full Length Watch Along): / thereelrejects Taking care of your health just got easier – start here with Zocdoc: https://zocdoc.com/REJECTS #sponsored In this Dunkirk movie reaction, Dunkirk full movie reaction, and review, Tara, Jackie & Paige react to Christopher Nolan's (Oppenheimer, The Dark Knight Trilogy) World War II epic starring Fionn Whitehead as Tommy (Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, Great Expectations), Tom Hardy as Farrier (Mad Max: Fury Road, The Revenant), Cillian Murphy as The Shivering Soldier (Oppenheimer, Peaky Blinders), Mark Rylance as Mr. Dawson (Bridge of Spies, Wolf Hall), Kenneth Branagh as Commander Bolton (Belfast, Murder on the Orient Express), Harry Styles as Alex (My Policeman, Don't Worry Darling), and Barry Keoghan as George (The Banshees of Inisherin, Saltburn), featuring a pulse-pounding score by Hans Zimmer (Interstellar, Dune). From the desperate race to escape the beaches and breathtaking aerial dogfights to the civilian rescue fleet and one of Christopher Nolan's most emotionally powerful endings, Tara, Jackie & Paige discuss why Dunkirk remains one of the most technically impressive and suspenseful war films ever made.

Black holes, wormholes, time dilation, gravity, fifth dimensions and Hans Zimmer's thunderous score all combine to create a cinematic experience unlike anything else.The boys break down whether Christopher Nolan's space epic deserves its place among the greatest films ever made or asks just a little too much of its audience.Whitey shares why this remains one of the most emotional cinema experiences of his life and admits that even after multiple viewings, he still discovers new details every time. Damo dives deep into the science behind the film, the incredible soundtrack from Hans Zimmer and why this is a movie that rewards repeat watches. Meanwhile, G-Man experiences Interstellar for the very first time, proving that even a three-hour runtime can't stop Nolan from delivering one unforgettable ride.Of course, this wouldn't be Born to Watch without plenty of laughs along the way.The boys debate whether anyone actually understands the ending the first time around, discuss the emotional devastation of Cooper's relationship with Murph, marvel at Nolan's practical filmmaking techniques and question whether they'd leave their own family behind if they were humanity's last hope.There's plenty of appreciation for Matthew McConaughey's career-best performance, Anne Hathaway's emotional turn, Jessica Chastain's incredible work as the adult Murph, and Matt Damon's unforgettable heel turn, which completely changes the direction of the film.As always, the crew dive into the IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes scores, compares Interstellar against some of the greatest science fiction films ever made, revisits the incredible year that was 2014 in cinema and discusses Christopher Nolan's unbelievable run of films, including Batman Begins, The Prestige, The Dark Knight, Inception and Interstellar.Expect plenty of discussion around Hans Zimmer's legendary score, practical visual effects that still hold up over a decade later and why Interstellar continues to inspire audiences every time it's re-released on the biggest screens possible.Naturally, the famous Born to Watch segments return, including Overs and Unders, Critical Thinking, Ordinary People, Hit, Sleeper, Dud, The Snorbs Report, Quickfire Questions and plenty more movie nonsense that somehow still makes perfect sense.Whether you've watched Interstellar once or twenty times, or you're still trying to work out exactly what happened inside the tesseract, this episode is packed with laughs, passionate movie discussion and enough Christopher Nolan appreciation to make even Professor Brand proud.So grab your headphones, set your coordinates beyond Saturn and join the crew for one of the biggest movie discussions we've ever had.Join the conversation!

Before Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey arrives, Aaron Alexander & Andrew Gordon experience Inception (2010) for the first time watching, diving into Nolan's mind-bending sci-fi masterpiece. From the iconic hallway fight and breathtaking dream heists to Hans Zimmer's unforgettable score and the legendary spinning top ending, this Inception reaction explores one of the greatest blockbuster films ever made.Inception (2010) Reaction (Full Length Watch Along): / thereelrejects The best businesses aren't built in boardrooms.

Activamos el código de máxima urgencia militar porque se ha producido un "Flecha Rota": hemos perdido el control de dos armas nucleares y, lo que es peor, John Travolta está suelto y desatado. Esta semana nos metemos de lleno en el desierto de Utah para analizar 'Broken Arrow: Alarma nuclear' (1996). En esta edición dejamos los rodeos a un lado para rendir homenaje a ese bendito cine de acción de mediados de los noventa. Una época donde las explosiones se hacían con maquetas reales, las peleas tenían coreografías imposibles y las palomas blancas de John Woo empezaban a volar en el cine norteamericano. En este análisis a cuatro manos repasaremos: John Woo en Hollywood: Cómo el director de Hong Kong adaptó su estilo hiperbólico (cámara lenta, dos pistolas a la vez, tiroteos estéticos) a los grandes presupuestos de los estudios estadounidenses. El duelo de protagonistas: El magnetismo villano de un John Travolta que se lo pasa en grande robando cada escena frente a un Christian Slater que ejerce de héroe de acción de la vieja escuela. Trama, música y curiosidades: Analizamos el ritmo implacable de la película, la icónica y pegadiza banda sonora de Hans Zimmer (con ese riff de guitarra tan reconocible) y las mejores anécdotas del rodaje que convirtieron a esta cinta en un éxito de taquilla. Incluso ponemos contexto histórico con el Broken Arrow que tuvimos en España... Para este cara a cara de alto voltaje alrededor de los micrófonos, se bastan y se sobran dos auténticos pesos pesados del programa: Juandi y Salva Vargas (quien además se encarga de dirigir y presentar la sesión). ¿Tenéis los códigos de desactivación a mano? ¡Dadle al play y forma tu propio criterio!

We begin a 4-week run of looking at the creators of the soundscapes of some of our favourite (or not so favourite) films. This week, holding the baton is the iconic composer, Hans Zimmer.

Analizamos la oscarizada road movie de Barry Levinson, la evolución de los personajes y la mítica banda sonora de Hans Zimmer. En este nuevo episodio de nuestro podcast, nos sumergimos de lleno en el análisis de una de las películas más icónicas de finales de los años ochenta: Rain Man, estrenada en 1988 y gran triunfadora en la gala de los Premios Oscar de 1989, donde se alzó con los galardones a mejor película, mejor director para Barry Levinson, mejor guion y mejor actor principal. A lo largo de la conversación, desgranamos el enorme impacto de esta producción, que no solo fue un éxito de crítica, sino también un tremendo taquillazo. Aunque la película suele recordarse principalmente por la llamativa y oscarizada interpretación de Dustin Hoffman, que da vida a Raymond, un autista de alta funcionalidad, reivindicamos con fuerza el papel de Tom Cruise. Su personaje, Charlie Babbitt, es el verdadero motor y corazón de la historia, mostrando una evolución dramática excepcional que sirve de espejo para el espectador. Analizamos la estructura de la película como una road movie emocional en la que los hermanos Babbitt viajan desde la costa este hasta Los Ángeles. Durante este viaje, el personaje de Tom Cruise, inicialmente un joven yuppie, egoísta y obsesionado con el dinero, experimenta un profundo cambio al conectar de manera genuina con su hermano. Este proceso se aborda en el film con una enorme sensibilidad, evitando caer en recursos fáciles o excesivamente sensibleros, un mérito que atribuimos tanto a la dirección de Barry Levinson como a la sólida química entre ambos protagonistas. También comentamos diversos aspectos de la producción y anécdotas de los actores, estableciendo paralelismos entre el trabajo de Tom Cruise en esta obra y otros papeles clave de su carrera, como el de Jerry Maguire o Nacido el Cuatro de Julio. De igual modo, recordamos con humor y nostalgia la banda sonora de la película, a cargo de un joven Hans Zimmer que ya empezaba a consolidar su característico estilo en el Hollywood de la época. Para cerrar, compartimos algunas de nuestras escenas favoritas, como la mítica secuencia en el casino de Las Vegas o el entrañable momento del ascensor junto al personaje de Valeria Golino. Finalmente, nos despedimos con el gran momento musical del film al ritmo del clásico de The Beatles, "I Saw Her Standing There", cantado por los propios protagonistas.

On episode 160 of the Director Watch Podcast, co-hosts Ryan McQuade and Jay Ledbetter are joined by AwardsWatch contributors Cody Dericks and Josh Parham to discuss the next film in their Christopher Nolan series, Interstellar (2014). Welcome back to Director Watch! On this AwardsWatch podcast, the boys attempt to breakdown, analyze, and ultimately, get inside the mind of some of cinema's greatest auteurs. In doing so, they will look at their filmographies, explore what drives them artistically and what makes their decision-making process so fascinating. Add in a few silly tangents and a fun game at the end of the episode and you've got yourself a podcast we truly hope you love. After hanging up his cape and cowl Dark Knight pictures, Nolan set his sight on the stars, for a space epic that defined a generations taste in cinema. With Interstellar, the famed director takes us on a trip through time and space with a rescue mission to save the human population as Earth slowly dying and decaying. In this trip through a wormhole to investigate prospective, future inhabitance, one engineer (and former pilot) will stop at nothing to finding a solution to not only save humanity, but his family he left back on Earth. In making this bold, ambitious film, Nolan created his most emotional, thrilling, technically daring film of his career so far, but much like Inception, had detractors who took issue with the explanation of the science in the film, as well as feeling emotionally manipulated by the film's ending. Ryan, Jay, Cody, and Josh break down both sides of the Interstellar argument, why they love or dislike it, the score from Hans Zimmer, the use of time in the ending, the film's set piece, the importance of the McConaissance, Anne Hathaway's speech about love, a few impressions of Michael Caine, and why this film is the one that resonates the most with younger cinephiles. You can listen to the Director Watch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music and more. You can also listen on the AW YouTube page. This podcast runs 2h32m. The guys will be back next week to continue their series on the films of Christopher Nolan with a review of his next film, Dunkirk. You can rent it via iTunes and Amazon Prime rental in preparation for the next episode of Director Watch. Till then, let's get into it.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to introduce you all to: Sexual assault survivor, whistleblower and overcomer, Frontwoman, singer and songwriter for the band Wisher, loving fiancee to Noah, black belt badass, belly dancing goddess, workout fanatic, creative writer, artist and poet, Pirates of the Caribbean devottee, animal lover, Pokemon card collector, special effect and set building aficionado, former Jane from Tarzan, recovering alcoholic and sobriety champion, and an incredible young woman breaking her silence for the first time today: Kayleigh KAnnA little bit about Kayleigh and what we will be discussing today: Born with dreams that refused to stay small, young Kayleigh scribbled “singer” on those childhood “what I want to be” papers. Music was never a hobby - it was destiny written in her bones. Today, as the ethereal yet thunderous voice of Wisher, Kayleigh channels that calling into symphonic metal that blends the grandeur of Nightwish, the cinematic sweep of Hans Zimmer, and the heavy fire of Avenged Sevenfold. Their music is raw, evolving, and deeply human: shorter, sharper tracks like “Aqua Devita” that feel like emotional release, harmony-laden guitars that soar like choirs, and live shows where Kayleigh performs as if every modest venue is Live Aid. She closes her eyes, sees thousands, spins, jumps, and pours out her soul - because the stage is her haven, her zone, and her way of sharing joy no matter if two people or two thousand adoring fans stand before her.Wisher itself tells a story of growth and chosen family. After years of lineup changes and compromise, the current steadfast crew of Wisher jams from the heart - meshing whimsical wonder with crushing riffs, and prioritizing real connection over perfection. The band's journey mirrors Kayleigh's own: honest, theatrical, a little intense, and utterly authentic. They've turned bar stages and club nights into sacred spaces of celebration, even when life throws emergencies, health struggles, or industry hurdles their way. Kayleigh leads with love, canceling shows if a bandmate needs care - always choosing mental health and family over deadlines, because she knows what truly matters.Yet Kayleigh's light shines brightest against the shadows. She has looked unflinchingly at the entertainment industry's underbelly - its documented ties to exploitation and human trafficking - and refused to dim her own path. A survivor herself who carries the weight of knowing too much, she re-evaluated her dreams rather than selling her soul for fame. She speaks openly about the darkness: artists lost, survivors silenced, monopolies like Live Nation squeezing out local voices, and the ethical cost of “success.” Her response? Double down on integrity, support real artists who build with heart and entrepreneurship, treat music as ministry, prioritize purpose over profit, and fiercely protect what is sacred.And on today's show, Kayleigh will be breaking the silence on her own story of survival - a life-altering, traumatic event and aftermath that changed her life forever. A testimony of ultimate betrayal by people she loved, trusted, and cared deeply about. And together, we will be taking off the heavy layers of guilt and shame that have weighted heavy on her heart and soul for many years, and shedding them - handing them back to those who caused the betrayal that was never supposed to happen. Kayleigh has spent years advocating for others - she has loudly been cheering on the survivor community - learning, educating others, and being an incredible ally - all while silently harboring a testimony of her own. And today that silence breaks. Today, a bright light gets shined on the darkness. And today, Kayleigh's voice expands from singing on stages and her online advocacy, and into the eyes and ears of those ready to bear witness to her own story of overcoming. Today, she passes the torch she has received from other survivors in her own healing journey to all of you here with us today. Kayleigh is proof that survivors don't just endure - they rise, they sing, they uplift. In her music and her message, she hands us back our own light: the reminder that we all have a soul, a purpose, and the power to create beauty anyway. She is living testimony that no matter what you've survived, your voice can still shake the world with love.
This week on Oscars Outsider, we dive into one of the Academy's strangest and most confusing categories: Best Original Score.From the early days of studio music departments to decades of split categories, reunited categories, musical exceptions, adaptations, and shifting definitions of what “original” even means, the Oscar for film music has had one of the messiest histories of any Academy Award. We trace how the category changed over time, why musicals caused so many problems, and how the Academy ended up rewarding — and ignoring — some of the most famous scores in movie history.Along the way, we talk Bernard Herrmann, Henry Mancini, Duke Ellington, West Side Story, John Williams, Schindler's List, Jurassic Park, Hans Zimmer, The Lion King, and why Oscar voters keep struggling to separate great movie music from great scores.
Our hosts return to the Podtower to review the third and final instalment of Secret Origins. Alex and Will share their thoughts on the three-part story as a whole and come away feeling a little underwhelmed. They also spotlight the episode's musical score, noting its uncanny resemblance to Pirates of the Caribbean and wondering whether Hans Zimmer may have stolen it from this show. Another film comparison that Alex notices is from The Matrix, in both the music and the aliens' plan to block out the sun.Our hosts also discover that Martian Manhunter might be into BDSM (even if he doesn't know what the acronym stands for), the aliens tunnel of deadly fart gas, and Batman builds a massive space station for the Justice League, only to then remain a temporary member of the team.

Cathy and Todd discuss Gladiator, released in 2000 and directed by Ridley Scott, it stars Russell Crowe as Maximus, a Roman general betrayed by the Emperor’s son Commodus, who murders his own father Marcus Aurelius to seize power, then orders the execution of Maximus and his entire family. Sold into slavery and forced into the arena, Maximus fights his way back to Rome for one purpose: vengeance. With a box office of $466 million, five Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Actor for Crowe, and a Hans Zimmer score that became one of the bestselling soundtracks of all time, the film didn’t just succeed, it reinvented an entire genre and inspired everything from HBO’s Rome to The Hunger Games. It’s filled with unforgettable lines like, “What we do in life echoes in eternity” and “Are you not entertained?”, and it happens to be one of Cathy’s all-time favorite movies.

The Great Rosary Campaign is an ongoing prayer and penance campaign for the conversion and strengthening of both Catholic and non-Catholic leaders.For this "Hollywood Edition" of the Great Rosary Campaign, let us pray for the conversion of one of the world's greatest film composers: Hans Zimmer. Whether it be "Prince of Egypt," "Gladiator," or Batman, Zimmer has written some of the world's favorite music. In gratitude for his work, and out of love for his soul, let us pray that comes to the fullness of truth in the Catholic Church, and that his gifts may be fully put in the service of Christ.The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is a Holy Hour before the Blessed Sacrament, the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Our Lord in the Holy Eucharist.In these dark times, we must fight evil with the most powerful weapons we have. The Rosary is foremost among them. Join the Great Rosary Campaign today at: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com.Countless Saints and Popes have told us that the Rosary is incredibly powerful for three things in particular:Keeping the FaithMoral renovationConversions of non-CatholicsThe Great Rosary Campaign is also based on several biblical themes and principles.First, PRAY FOR OUR BRETHREN. “Pray for one another…” (Jas. 5:16). “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith" (Gal. 6:10).Second, PRAY FOR OUR ENEMIES. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 5:43-44).Third, PRAY FOR ALL MEN, PARTICULARLY LEADERS AND THOSE IN AUTHORITY. “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, or kings and all who are in high positions…” (1 Tim. 2:1-2).Fourth, GOING INTO BATTLE WITH THE ARK. When the ancient Israelites came to Jericho, God didn't tell them to besiege the city. Instead, He told them to march around it with the Ark of the Covenant seven times, and on the seventh the walls would fall. We will now "march" in prayer for seven days with the New Ark of the Covenant, Our Lady, through the Rosary. We pray in hope that on the seventh day, a day especially devoted to Our Lady (Saturday), extraordinary graces of conversion will be given to those we are praying for.Fifth, EVANGELISM AND APOLOGETICS = LOVE + ARGUMENTS + PRAYER + PENANCE. Ultimately it is God who reveals Himself to a soul, and empowers them to say "yes" to Him by His grace. He chooses to use us, but He does not have to. We must remember that as we evangelize and defend the Faith, our arguments will be fruitless unless informed by love (charity), and reinforced by prayer and penance.Sixth, RETURNING GOOD FOR EVIL. “Do not return evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing" (1 Pet. 3:9).Sign up to take part in the Great Rosary Campaign today: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com
Drogas, atascos y dilemas morales: El menú seriéfilo de "Estamos de Cine". En esta nueva entrega de "Estamos de Cine, edición series", el programa de Radio Castilla-La Mancha conducido por Roberto Lancha, nos alejamos de la ciencia ficción para sumergirnos en la cruda realidad del tráfico de drogas, el humor más cotidiano y los conflictos sentimentales más complejos. A través de nuestro "Filtro Rachel", analizamos tres propuestas imprescindibles que están dando de qué hablar en las principales plataformas: El Inmortal (Temporada 3): Regresamos al Madrid del año 2000 para seguir la pista de "los Miami" en Movistar Plus. Una historia que huele a traición, poder y narcotráfico. Atasco (Temporada 4): La serie de Prime Video vuelve a atraparnos en el tráfico, pero esta vez con una lluvia de cameos y apariciones estelares que prometen momentos muy disfrutones. El Polígamo: Desde Sudáfrica llega a Netflix un debate erótico-festivo sobre los límites de la fidelidad. ¿Es posible mantener el estatus social frente al dilema de la poligamia en una familia acomodada? Además, en "El radar de la buena música", Ángel Luque nos trae la excelencia de la saga Gregson-Williams. Ponemos el foco en Rupert Gregson-Williams, discípulo de Hans Zimmer y responsable de bandas sonoras épicas como Wonder Woman o Aquaman. En esta ocasión, analizamos su impecable trabajo para el thriller "Prisoner" (SkyShowtime), donde sale de su zona de confort para componer una atmósfera de género magistral. Todo esto y un primer vistazo al esperadísimo regreso de "La Casa del Dragón", que ya asoma en el horizonte.

Dana and Tom with 5x Club Member, Jesse Sertle (Fellow group member of CineMadison) discuss The Rock (1996) for its 30th anniversary: directed by Michael Bay, written by David Weisberg, Douglas S. Cook, and Mark Rosner, cinematography by John Schwartzman, editing by Richard Francis-Bruce, music by Nick Glennie-Smith and Hans Zimmer, starring Sean Connery, Ed Harris, and Nicolas Cage.Plot Summary: In The Rock, a rogue U.S. general (Ed Harris) seizes Alcatraz Island and threatens San Francisco with stolen chemical weapons, forcing an unlikely duo—a bookish FBI chemist (Nicolas Cage) and a vanished‑from‑the‑grid ex‑spy (Sean Connery) —into the island's fog‑shrouded fortress. As they infiltrate the abandoned prison's tunnels and rusted battlements, the mission becomes a tense clash of wills and philosophies, where loyalty, guilt, and the weight of past secrets press in as heavily as the Pacific mist. The Rock turns into a high‑stakes pressure cooker, inviting you into a world where every corridor hums with danger and every choice feels like it could tip the balance.Guest:Jesse Sertle (5x Club Member)Fellow group member of CineMadisonPreviously on Rounders (1998), Easy Rider (1969), and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019), Star Wars (1977)@jsertle on IGChapters:00:00 Introduction, Cast, and Background for The Rock03:00 Welcome Back, Jesse Sertle06:04 Tom's Difficulty with Michael Bay08:55 Relationship(s) with The Rock14:07 Michael Bay19:28 Nicolas Cage23:24 Sean Connery25:23 How to Enjoy Any Michael Bay Movie26:25 Plot Summary for The Rock27:23 What is The Rock About?28:41 Did You Know?32:39 First Break33:22 What's Happening with Jesse Sertle?34:03 Best Performance(s)39:51 Best Scene(s)47:22 Second Break48:14 Best/Funniest Lines51:24 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy57:09 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance01:01:45 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:05:02 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:11:53 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:16:10 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:17:49 Remaining Questions for The Rock01:20:19 Thank You to Jesse and Remaining Thoughts01:23:33 CreditsYou can also find this episode in full video on YouTube.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky, Threads, YouTube, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast).For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/the-rock-1996-ft-jesse-sertleFor the entire rankings list so far, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/greatest-movie-of-all-time-listKeywords:The Rock, Michael Bay, Nicolas Cage, Sean Connery, Ed Harris, 90s action movies, film critique, behind the scenes, movie analysis, film analysis, movie review, 90s cinema, rewatchability, film legacyRonny Duncan Studios

El nuevo episodio de Estamos de Cine Edicióin series se encarga de radiografiar el renovado panorama de las series en la semana en la ques plataformas tienen que contrarrestar el efecto The Mandalorian y Grogu en los cines. Comenzamos nuestro Filtro Rachel destacando dos esperados estrenos con acento español que prometen revolucionar los catálogos de HBO Max y Movistar Plus. La ficción nacional demuestra su músculo con dos propuestas de peso que combinan talento delante y detrás de las cámaras. Analizamos 'Rab¡valear', la nueva apuesta de HBO Max que cuenta con el guión y la dirección de Isaki Lacuesta y Pol Rodríguez. Esta producción destaca por un nervio narrativo que roza el género documental y se apoya en las sólidas interpretaciones de Enric Auquer y Sergi López. Por otra parte, Movistar Plus contraataca con la comedia ácida 'Se tiene que morir mucha gente', una serie nacida de la efervescente mente creativa de Verónica Martín, que en esta ocasión cuenta con el protagonismo de Ana Castillo y Macarena García, consolidando así una semana redonda para la industria audiovisual del país. El repaso de la actualidad internacional no se queda atrás en esta entrega, donde se presentan interesantes novedades de Apple TV+ y Netflix. Los oyentes podrán descubrir los entresijos de 'Satisfacción garantizada', una comedia negra protagonizada por Tatiana Maslany, que da vida a una madre divorciada envuelta en una singular trama de sexo virtual por pago. Asimismo, ponderamos el gran estreno de Netflix: 'The Boroughs', una propuesta de comedia fantástica apadrinada por los hermanos Duffer (creadores de Stranger Things) que traslada al espectador a una residencia de ancianos en la que encontramos a unos jubilados de lujo: Alfred Molina, Gina Davis o Bill Pullman, que descubrirán en su hogar otoñal de Nuevo Méjico una amenaza alienígena que les coloca ante el reto de sus vidas. Y como colofón musical, el programa reserva un espacio destacado para la música y el análisis cultural más profundo. El crítico musical Ángel Luque introduce una de las joyas de la temporada: la banda sonora inédita de Hans Zimmer y Cristóbal Tapia de Veer para la esperada miniserie basada en el clásico literario El señor de las moscas. Esta producción de Movistar Plus traslada la mítica historia de los niños atrapados en una isla tropical a la pequeña pantalla, prometiendo no dejar indiferente a nadie gracias a su atmósfera sonora y visual. Con este menú tan completo, el espacio de Radio Castilla-La Mancha invita a sus oyentes a ponerse cómodos y disfrutar de una hora del mejor análisis seriéfilo.
An FBI chemical weapons expert (Oscar-winner Nicholas Cage) and a former SAS soldier turned political prisoner (Oscar-winner Sean Connery) must break into Alcatraz prison when a rogue military group, lead by a renegade general (Oscar-nominee Ed Harris), has taken it over and are now threatening a nerve gas attack on San Franscisco. This high-octane action thriller was a huge smash when released in the Summer of 1996 and helped cement director Michael Bay (Bad Boys, Armageddon, Transformers, Pearl Harbor) as an established brand of filmmaker for decades to come. The stacked supporting cast also includes John Spencer, David Morse, William Forsythe, Vanessa Marcil, Tony Todd, Bokeem Woodbine, and Michael Biehn among several others.

Directed by Oscar-winner Ron Howard (Apollo 13, A Beautiful Mind, Parenthood), this remains one of the most celebrated big budget Hollywood films about what is likely one of the more cinematic professions.....FIREFIGHTERS. It tells the seemingly simple story of two firefighting brothers in Chicago played by Billy Baldwin (Sliver, Flatliners) and Kurt Russell (The Thing, Tombstone) and their struggles to work together. Not only are they struggling with the dangers of their professions but also the women in the lives played by Jennifer Jason Leigh (Single White Female, The Hateful Eight) and Rebecca DeMornay (The Hand That Rocks The Cradle, Risky Business), along with an ongoing series of fatal pre-planned fires killing various real estate developers around town, which have the lead arson investigator (Robert DeNiro) on the case. This sprawling action adventure which has sometimes been referred to as "Top Gun for Firefighters" also co-stars Scott Glenn, JT Walsh, and Donald Sutherland among several others.

Now thoroughly within the lunar gravitational sphere of influence, Artemis II's crew perform final preparations for the flyby and nearest approach. Very shortly they will break the human distance record from earth.But listeners ask, why will they go further than Apollo 13 went? Space scientist Maggie Aderin and astronaut Tim Peake are joined by expert guest space journalist Kristin Fisher to explore. The astronauts will shortly be the only people to see a unique solar eclipse, survey parts of the lunar far side never gazed upon with human eyes, and enter a communication blackout for around 45 minutes.Astronaut psychology is one of the most important areas of space science. Before working on Nasa's Twins study, Dr Mathias Basner developed a test for astronaut cognition testing. Why? Because astronauts are such over-performers that with ordinary tests, their results would barely register. So… how did Tim score when he had to do them?But tonight, all eyes are on the moon.Season 4 theme music by Hans Zimmer and Christian Lundberg and produced by Russell Emanuel, for Bleeding Fingers Music.

Both died young, undone by the same darkness they sang about, and placing them there reads as a dare to herself. The album that follows is her attempt to find a different ending: a 17-track, 75-minute work featuring Al Green, Hans Zimmer, the London Symphony Orchestra, and over 80 collaborators, structured around the four seasons as a journey from autumn despair toward summer light. Every genre shift on the record, from Vivaldi's Winter to post-bop jazz combo to gospel choir, serves that arc: small emotional truths get cinematic treatment, most strikingly when the click of heels on pavement becomes the central rhythm of an anthem about getting dressed to go out with friends. The episode serves as a field guide to the album's vast musical language, and to the argument that hope is something you have to build, genre by genre, track by track.

Artemis II is “on track” to launch in April. And so are we – with our brand-new season of 13 Minutes, which will start a couple of days before lift off. Astronaut Tim Peake is co-presenting 13 Minutes Presents: Artemis II and has the latest news. The mission had been set to begin in early March, but a helium leak was discovered. Nasa says it's confident the problem has been fixed. Now, the earliest possible launch date is 1 April. The mission is set to see astronauts flying around the Moon for the first time in more than 50 years. Tim spent 186 days at the International Space Station, so what's it like to be an astronaut waiting for lift off? What final preparations are made? And what determines the launch date? 13 Minutes Presents: Artemis II will take off two days before the launch. Tim will be joined by space scientist Maggie Aderin-Pocock and US space journalist Kristin Fisher to bring you a space story in real time. Every day of the mission, the team will have the latest news, key details about the rocket and the crew, and they'll hear from the people who're making it all happen. Join us later this month as we travel together towards the far side of the Moon. Theme music by Hans Zimmer and Christian Lundberg and produced by Russell Emanuel, for Bleeding Fingers Music.
