Podcast appearances and mentions of Helena Bonham Carter

Hello to you listening all over the world, and especially Ukranians here and abroad. Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.  Feeling completely broken down after having witnessed the world-wide-televised brutality by our so-called leaders shamefully berating President Zelensky and, by extension Ukraine and its citizens, while the rest of them sat mute on the sidelines, I turned for a little comfort to a move I had been wanting to watch.The 2023 BBC movie, One Life, starring Anthony Hopkins, Helena-Bonham Carter and others brought me face-to-face with an ordinary person doing extraordinary things in a dark-as-hell time in 1938. Nicolas (Nicky) Winton, a British stockbroker orchestrated the escape of 669 Czeck Jewish children out of Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia. But it wasn't until 50 years later in 1988 when his wife discovered a scrapbook detailing the rescue of these children that his work came to light, and he was able to come to terms with the burden he carried of not being able to “do enough.”BONUS: You can read more about Sir Nicholas Winton and how rescuing 669 refugee children eventually gave 6,000 people their lives HEREBefore I leave you I want to read about Nicky's legacy:“Nicky's legacy is primarily the more than 6000 people now alive because of the Kindertransport rescue; however, his history demonstrates his conviction that living a good life involves more than just doing no harm.  He believed strongly that a meaningful and ethical life involved reaching out to help others in need, whether in the local community or further afield.  He felt that learning about history was only worthwhile if it led to positive action today and his legacy includes inspiring others to give their time to those in need.Encouraging the public to help save child refugees in 1939 in a letter to a newspaper, Nicky stated the following: “… there is a difference between passive goodness and active goodness which is, in my opinion, the giving of one's time and energy in the alleviation of pain and suffering. It entails going out, finding and helping those in suffering and danger and not merely leading an exemplary life in the purely passive way of doing no wrong.”CTA: For those of you who are moved by his story, taking positive action to help others would be the finest way to honour him.You're invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a nice shout out on your social media or podcast channel of choice, (including Android, Amazon Music, Audible & Pandora Radio) and join us next time!

Alright, Spookies, we finally finished making our way through the OG flicks, which means it's time to start talking reboots. That's right, we've circled so far through PLANET OF THE APE-RIL that we're now right back at the beginning with Planet of the Apes (2001). For take two of the franchise, Tim Burton teamed up with Mark Wahlberg and Helena Bonham Carter to see if they had something new to add to the conversation, but studio meddling may have caused some major problems. Join us for a new Spooky Tuesday as we discuss how it stacks up to the originals, its fidelity to the Pierre Boulle novel, and the way Rick Baker finally got the tightline right.

Oscar Month continues! Bev's couple of weeks off begins! She's not here to talk about The King's Speech, which is a classy movie that ended up being a huge hit, even though it's about a group of people that Ryan has never liked: the royals? A monarchy? In a democracy? Yet, credit where it's due, Tom Hooper does an admirable job of making a non-fan care about the king of England and his enunciation---and also Nazi-related---troubles. Colin Firth won gold for his work as the stuttering Prince Albert/King George VI who gets a job he never wanted while his supportive wife (Helena Bonham Carter) and unorthodox speech therapist (Geoffrey Rush) are just about his only support system. The King's Speech is often quite touching and it's even inspirational, showing a privileged man have to deal with confidence issues, loneliness, his uncaring fellow royals and duty to his country. So don't storm off in anger. Just tune into the 651st episode of Have You Ever Seen and listen to one man's speech...about a speech. Well, Actually: while Slumdog Millionaire started the trend of the entire cast & crew in attendance at the Oscars going up on stage when the film wins Best Picture, the entire LOTR: ROTK cast & crew DID go up on stage the year THEY won Best Picture. Also, Helena Bonham Carter plays "Bellatrix Lestrange" in the Harry Potter series, not "Beatrix". We are sponsored by the coffee that's fit for a king or a queen: Sparkplug Coffee.

Send us a textThis week we talk about Fight Club from 1999! Our creator profile this week is Edward Norton! https://www.instagram.com/thebonsaimoviecrew/https://twitter.com/bonsai_crewhttps://www.tiktok.com/@thebonsaimoviecrewhttps://discord.gg/8jCPe8T2kT#moviereview #podcast #moviefan #filmpodcast #moviepodcast #film

1999 is often hailed as one of the greatest years in cinema history, and in this episode of Born to Watch, we're diving deep into one of its most iconic and controversial films with our Fight Club (1999) Movie Review. David Fincher's mind-bending psychological thriller took audiences on a chaotic ride through identity, masculinity, and anti-consumerist rebellion. With unforgettable performances from Edward Norton, Brad Pitt, and Helena Bonham Carter, Fight Club became a cult phenomenon—despite its initial box office struggles. But does it still hold up 25 years later? Whitey, G-Man, and Morgz break all the rules to find out.David Fincher's Fight Club was a film unlike anything audiences had seen before, with its nihilistic themes, psychological twists, and underground chaos. Starring Edward Norton as the insomniac narrator and Brad Pitt in one of his most iconic roles as the enigmatic Tyler Durden, this film took audiences on a mind-bending journey through identity, masculinity, and rebellion against consumer culture. But did it resonate with all three of our hosts? Or did one of them somehow make it to 2024 without having seen this cinematic juggernaut in its entirety? (Looking at you, G-Man.)From analysing the film's mind-blowing twist to questioning whether Fight Club is really about toxic masculinity or a critique of modern-day disillusionment, the boys dive deep into the film's layered themes. They also explore the intense performances—Norton's transformation from passive observer to chaotic instigator, Pitt's peak charisma as Durden, and Helena Bonham Carter's brilliantly unhinged Marla Singer. And, of course, there's a tribute to Meat Loaf and his legendary portrayal of Bob with the biggest set of, well… you know.Other highlights include:✔️ The iconic red leather jacket—did Morgz really wear one in San Francisco, and did it get him more attention than Brad Pitt himself?✔️ Fincher's visual style—how Fight Club still looks like it could be released today and stand out among modern films.✔️ The cult following—how Fight Club bombed at the box office but became one of the most beloved films of its generation.✔️ Does the ending actually make sense, or is the bullet to the head a little too conveniently survivable?✔️ The hilarious yet disturbing impact of splicing single frames into family-friendly films—something Tyler Durden (and Fincher himself) seemed to enjoy doing.✔️ Would you answer Chloe's call for help? (Yes, it's exactly what you think.)With plenty of laughs, off-the-rails banter, and a whole lot of admiration for Fincher's filmmaking, this Fight Club review is one for the books. Whether you're a first-time viewer like G-Man or a long-time fan like Whitey and Morgz, this episode breaks down everything that makes Fight Club one of the most talked-about films in modern cinema.Tune in now—just don't talk about it. (Or, actually, please do. Tell your mates. Share it. Fight Club's rules don't apply here.)

Today is a bit of a surprise entry in the list of Beeper Bob Classics as it's not a movie the boys thought would resonate with the man. Big Fish starring Ewan McGregor, Albert Finney, Helena Bonham Carter, Danny DeVito, and many more. Big Fish follows the many craftfully told stories of Edward Bloom and how they affected the lives of those who knew him. A heartfelt movie about the many dynamics of a relationship between a man and his father, Big Fish certainly has earned itself a reputation on the streets, but can it get a good score in the Where To Stick It arena?Support the showCatch new episodes of the Where to Stick It Podcast every Tuesday and Thursday.

Show us your Pitts - again! Put your fists in the air because this is Part 2 of "Pitt Fest" celebrating two Brad Pitt movies based on books that hit milestone anniversaries this year. Mark welcomes Brad stan OT Garcia back on the show to break the number 1 rule of Fight Club and discuss the “defining cult movie of our time” for its 25th anniversary. From David Fincher's memorable aesthetic and Tyler Durden's gigolo fashion, to Helena Bonham Carter's scene-stealing smoking and all the sweaty muscles on display, this movie left a mark on many of us (including Mark's high school art teacher). Plus, OT compares the existentialism in the dialogue to another 1999 hit: The Matrix!

Dana and Tom with returning guests, Andrew Corns (Host of the Revisionist Almanac) and Peterson W. Hill (Co-Host of the War Starts at Midnight podcast), to discuss Fight Club (1999) for its 25th Anniversary: directed by David Fincher, written by Jim Uhls, music by the Dust Brothers, starring Edward Norton, Brad Pitt, Helena Bonham Carter, and Meat Loaf.Plot Summary: Fight Club, directed by David Fincher, is a dark, visceral exploration of disillusionment and rebellion in a consumer-driven society. Edward Norton stars as an unnamed narrator, a corporate drone who feels trapped in the relentless cycle of modern capitalism. His insomnia and sense of detachment lead him to underground support groups, where he finds fleeting solace. Still, it's only when he meets the charismatic anarchist Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) that he feels truly alive.Tyler and the narrator start a "Fight Club," an underground fight society where men brawl to escape the numbness of their lives. What begins as cathartic release soon spirals into chaos as Tyler's influence over the narrator grows, drawing him into an increasingly violent, nihilistic philosophy.Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Welcome to Our Guests02:40 Cast and Recognition for Fight Club05:28 Relationship(s) with Fight Club10:38 What is Fight Club About?20:28 Does Fight Club Serve a Public Good?30:51 Plot Summary for Fight Club33:58 First Break34:46 What's Up with Andrew and Peterson40:20 Ask Dana Anything?46:32 Best Performance(s) of Fight Club01:03:05 Best/Favorite/Indelible Scene(s)01:11:21 Second Break01:12:22 In Memoriam01:18:25 Best/Funniest Lines01:23:37 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy01:34:21 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance01:41:36 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:45:47 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:59:25 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability02:03:08 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total02:05:47 Remaining Questions of Fight Club02:16:09 Thank You to Our Guests and Farewell02:18:56 CreditsGuests:Andrew CornsHost of the Revisionist Almanac@revalmanac on IG, X, YouTube, TikTok, and LetterboxdPreviously on Gaslight (1946) and Do the Right Thing (1989) RevisitPeterson W.

The FIRST Rule About Fight Club is....Do NOT TALK About Fight ClubOf course when this action satire directed by David Fincher (Seven, The Social Network) first opened twenty-five years ago to mixed reviews and mediocre box office, it still HEAVILY talked about by a certain segment of the population which just could not get enough of it.  It featured two iconic characters played by Brad Pitt and Edward Norton at the peak of the powers plus a surprising turn by Helena Bonham Carter....along with a game supporting cast including Jared Leto, Holt McCallany, and....Meat Loaf.  (Yup the singer, you read that right)  And the plot?  Well to describe it would be violating the first two rules but let's just say that it all kicks off with the wittily narrated tale of one mild-mannered insurance adjustor (Norton) who is simply having trouble getting to sleep at night....he then meets a mysterious figure named Tyler Durden (Pitt), they decide to begin fighting each other for fun.....and mayhem ensues!  And lots of soap of course.....

Planet of the Apes (2001): Episode 314 - Sep-Tim-Bur-Ton wraps up as we head back to our favorite planet - The Planet of the Apes 2001! Ape-raham Lincoln smiles upon us as we discuss the big blockbuster disaster that put a serious dent into Tim Burton's reputation and almost ended this franchise.

Starring Ed Norton, Brad Pitt and Helena Bonham Carter we recap this cult classic that starred in the fantasies of teenage boys (and some adult men) for years. We understand that this movie was made for men, by men. And it shows. No follow up questions, blind following into violence, not a secretary or assistant in sight but magically things are getting done. Hell, someone is even filing. This movie is the epitome of a man's spank bank- beating the shit out of each other instead of going to therapy. 

Since “Fight Club” hit theaters in 1999, the movie has become both a cinematic cult classic and a building block of how people (mostly men) express themselves online. Film critic Emily St. James and Crooked's Erin Ryan join Offline Movie Club to talk about whether David Fincher's opus deserves its top tier rankings, how the movie has been misappropriated by disillusioned Gen Xers and online chauvinists alike, and whether there are any feminist messages to be found. In essence, it's Edward Norton playing a bored shitposter with Brad Pitt as his edgelord sock puppet account—what's not to love?  For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

While we're getting ready for Season 7 of the Therapy Works podcast, we're sharing some of our favorite moments throughout the years. Here's a small section from my talk with Helena Bonham Carter, as we discuss the risks and trust involved in their profession and how years of experience help in quickly recovering from setbacks. We'll talk about the joys of embodying different personas, the importance of playfulness, and the diverse roles they balance in life. We touch on coping mechanisms like laughter and not taking life too seriously, even amidst challenges like lockdown and self-criticism. The episode also highlights the significance of multi-faceted identities, dealing with internal critics, and maintaining core self-confidence in a demanding career.

Surprise! Because we had a Patreon movie that fits the timeframe of our Bridgerton world, we've decided to drop a bonus one on the main feed. This is a Victorian era mystery starring Millie Bobby Brown as Enola Holmes, Sherlock's younger sister. It's a star-studded Netflix film from 2020 that also features Henry Cavill as older bro Sherlock and Helena Bonham Carter as the (disappearing) matriarch of the Holmes family. Sam Claflin plays the eldest bro of the family, Mycroft Holmes, who sucks a big fat one. It's a fun flick directed by a man who also brought is “Fleabag,” and you can feel it from the absolutely shattered 4th wall. And if you wanna stay for some off the topic Jon & Kev chat, just keep listening after the end song. Thanks to Emily Thomas for the request, and thanks to all the Patreon pals for your support, and you can join the fun at patreon.com/kevinandjon!

Our 2010 retrospective has come to an end. We say goodbye with that year's Oscar Best Picture winner, "The King's Speech," starring Colin Firth, Geoffrey Rush, Helena Bonham Carter, Guy Pearce & Timothy Spall. Directed by Tom Hooper and brilliantly written by David Seidler, the inspiring true story is among the hotly debated Best Picture winners of all time. While the merits of its Oscar wins are certainly discussed, we primarily want to know how the film holds up on its own fourteen years later. Join Lauren LaMagna, Josh Parham, Alyssa Christian, Dan Bayer, and me as we discuss our thoughts on the performances, writing, direction, cinematography, its awards season success, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. It's been a fun retrospective, and we hope you'll go back and listen to our reviews for "Black Swan," "The Town," "The Fighter," "Toy Story 3," "Winter's Bone," "127 Hours," "Blue Valentine," "The Kids Are All Right," "Inception" and former reviews for "The Social Network," and "True Grit." Please be sure to take a look at the winners of the NBP Film Community and NBP Film Awards for 2010. I would like to give a final thank you to all of you, the dear listeners of Next Best Picture.

“Don't you agree that, on one's first visit to Florence, one must have a room with a view?” We watched the Merchant Ivory 1985 classic "A Room with a View" with our friend Rufino Cabang and excuse us as we faint in the arms of Julian Sands. Breaking American audiences to actors like Helena Bonham Carter, Julian Sands, Daniel Day Lewis, and  Rupert Graves this movie was a huge cross over success in American that was nominated for eight Academy Awards, and won for its adaptation for the screen by Ruth Prater Jhabvala. 20 year-old Helena looks like a porcelain doll,  swoon worthy men, and Maggie Smith is also here to talk some hot goss with Judi Dench. What more could you want in a costume drama! Also, the perfect cover for a movie to rent for young gay boys across the world, that features a famous skinny dipping scene with Julian Sands, Rupert Graves, and Simon Callow stripping down to their birthday suits for a dip. "A Room with a View" helped usher in the success of movies like Maurice, Remains of the Day, and Howard's End much to excitement of English Lit nerds, and all the boys who were "a joy to have in class."  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Twitter: @MTMUGPod Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna

This week Chapter by Chapter returns as Harry faces off against the CLEARLY most-dangerous dragon. Join Andrew, Eric, Laura and Micah and special Slug Club guest Catherine as they tackle Chapter 20 of Goblet of Fire, “The First Task.” Welcome to the show, Slug Club guest Catherine, who is a college professor of psychology! In the news: Helena Bonham Carter was asked about Miriam Margolyes' recent, controversial remarks about adult Harry Potter fans! We discuss Helena's response. Chapter-by-Chapter continues with Goblet of Fire, Chapter 20: The First Task 7-Word Summary: Dragons are afoot inside Hogwarts' grounds AHHHHHHH Harry “does the right thing” with Cedric. What does this tell us about his character? Mad-Eye Fakey's dark detectors are going off, but not for the reason he says! Professor McGonagall is a mother figure to Harry, and we get an inkling of it in this chapter. Should the Triwizard Tournament feature four of the same dragon? Why does Ludo Bagman keep asking Harry to cheat? Harry and Ron are friends again, and we discuss what was missing in Harry's life while he was gone. Who do we think had the best solution for the First Task? Karkaroff gives Harry a FOUR. Isn't there a rubric or a better way to prevent against this absurd favoritism?! Odds and Ends touch on Poor Poppy Pomfrey, pointed caps, Trelawney nonsense, and a cool connection between books 1, 4 and 7. Quizzitch question: What is the pattern of Dobby's tie when Harry first encounters him in the Hogwarts kitchens?
