Which Spike Lee are we getting with HIGHEST 2 LOWEST? The dazzling stylist and provocateur of DO THE RIGHT THING or the gun-for-hire genre filmmaker of OLDBOY? The Brothers dig into this question with a roundtable discussion of Spike Lee's latest picture. They examine the performances, the music, the structure, and the commentary, before they turn to the picture Spike Lee remade: Akira Kurosawa's HIGH AND LOW. They praise the Japanese noir classic as they examine its narrative structure, style, and impact, and examine the ways the films differ. Finally, the Brothers pay tribute to the late actor and director, Robert Redford, discussing his iconic contributions to cinema.1:19 - Keynote2:24 - Roundtable: “Highest 2 Lowest”30:49 - Roundtable: “High and Low”48:27 - The Current: Remembering Robert RefordClips:- “30 Rock” (2006)- “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” (1969)- “High and Low” (1963)- “Highest 2 Lowest” (2025)- “Inside Man” (2006)- “Out of Africa” (1985)Read more of the 3 Brothers' reviews, features, and roundtables at https://3brothersfilm.comSubscribe to the 3 Brothers Film YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO1zge4GZWu3-mdH-VPv8tw

This week we review Highest 2 Lowest, Spike Lee's brazen remake of the 1963 black and white Akira Kurosawa classic, High and Low. A divisive movie with its own modern mind apart from its predecessor, Highest 2 Lowest split audiences at Cannes this year and has now split us on the podcast as well. Akira Kurosawa at the height of his power or Spike Lee's late style curio? We talk about aging masters, baffling scores, and Lee's storied oeuvre as a whole.

Akira Kurosawa's High and Low (1963) is a film that is as instructive as it is entertaining. It's a classic police procedural that flexes Kurosawa's directorial prowess, especially in its staging and blocking. The film keeps its tense atmosphere throughout and pays off with an excellent conclusion.

We're back and bringing a FINAL Double Feature of the summer that is only possible because there are masters at work damn it! First up, is Akira Kurosawa's tense thriller involving shoes, kidnapping, drug addiction, jealousy, and of course Toshiro Mifune. It's 1963's High and Low. And then we have Spike Lee's contemporary interpretation of the story involving hip-hop, inept police, more kidnapping, New York City, and of course Denzel Washington. It's 2025's Highest 2 Lowest. Check it out!!

With HIGHEST 2 LOWEST Director Spike Lee remakes Akira Kurosawa's HIGH AND LOW taking it from the streets of Tokyo to the streets of modern day New York City. The film marks the fifth collaboration between Lee and star Denzel Washington. Our hosts share a review and then ponder the trailers of two new films coming soon to theaters.   Recommendation from our hosts in this episode - The Roses

Spike Lee's HIGHEST 2 LOWEST is built on the rock-solid narrative foundation of HIGH AND LOW, but the “interpretation” of Akira Kurosawa's 1963 crime-thriller classic he builds atop it can be shaky at times. We're all in agreement that HIGHEST 2 LOWEST has flaws, but whether those flaws add up to ruin or simply provide texture to a singular filmmaker's singular film is up for discussion in the first part of this week's episode. Then we move into Connections to see where Lee and Kurosawa's films align and diverge when it comes to high-low metaphor and imagery, the intersection of media and public opinion, and the value of police work. And in Your Next Picture Show, Scott recommends an earlier collaboration between Lee and HIGHEST 2 LOWEST star Denzel Washington that has only grown in his estimation since its 1998 release.  Please share your thoughts about HIGH AND LOW, HIGHEST 2 LOWEST, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

This week on The First Run, Matt and Chris reluctantly go to the Warren well one last time with ‘The Conjuring: Last Rites'. Can James Wan's dwindling franchise be saved with this one last adventure into the darkness? Then Chris will give you the skinny on Spike Lee's latest joint, ‘Highest 2 Lowest'. How does Lee's version of Kurosawa's classic ‘High And Low' fare with Denzel devouring the scenery? Finally, they wrap up the show with the definitive rankings of The Conjuring films. 00:00-15:12: Intro/The Conjuring: Last Rites15:13-24:42: Highest2Lowest24:43-35:11: Rank ‘Em: The Conjuring Franchise35:12-36:42: Wrap Up Theme music by Jamal Malachi Ford-Bey

A study released last October showed that movie remakes tend to lose money. Yet the film industry, for a variety of reasons, keeps churning them out. On this week's show, Dan Webster, Mary Pat Treuthart and Nathan Weinbender discuss one recent remake, Spike Lee's film “Highest 2 Lowest,” which is his version of Ed McBain's 1959 novel “King's Ransom,” as well as take a look back at another McBain adaptation, Japanese filmmaker Akira Kurosawa's 1963 film “High and Low.”

The new HIGHEST 2 LOWEST includes an onscreen credit for “the master” Akira Kurosawa as inspiration for a film that has the same basic shape and mistaken-identity kidnapping premise of 1963's HIGH AND LOW, but is still unmistakably a Spike Lee joint. So in order to better evaluate Lee's modernization of a crime classic, we're returning to the master's version to see how Kurosawa himself reshaped HIGH AND LOW from its pulp-novel origins, utilizing a bifurcated structure and leading man Toshirō Mifune to challenge viewers' assumed sympathies towards a villain and a victim on opposite sides of the class divide. Then in Feedback, a letter from a listener underlines a point about storytelling that HIGH AND LOW handily illustrates: the necessity of a three-act structure has been greatly exaggerated. Please share your thoughts about HIGH AND LOW, HIGHEST 2 LOWEST, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

In this episode, we break down how Lee reimagines the classic crime thriller through a modern lens—class, conscience, and a whole lot of Denzel.

The guys discuss Akira Kurosawa's 1963 classic, High and Low, which is Ron's Required Viewing choice, and then gab about other things they've watched recently, like Alien: Earth and the new HBO crime drama, Task, starring Mark Ruffalo in scruffy mode. 

September's going to be a busy month, we can tell already. We took a week off at the end of the summer but we're coming in hot to start the fall here at Breakfast All Day. Supposedly "The Conjuring: Last Rites" is the final film in the franchise -- it says so right there in the title! -- but nothing ever really ends. This is once again the scariest case Ed and Lorraine Warren have ever taken, something to do with a haunted mirror. You've seen it all before, but Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga are committed to the bit as always. In theaters. Then we review both Spike Lee's "Highest 2 Lowest" and Akira Kurosawa's "High and Low," the 1963 film that inspired it. The new one stars Denzel Washington as a music industry titan fighting a kidnapping scheme; Toshiro Mifune played a shoe company executive in the original. They have similar bones but are extremely different in how they tell their stories. The Kurosawa film is one of his greats, and Lee's latest is his most purely entertaining movie in a while. (At least one of us thought so.) You can catch "Highest 2 Lowest" on Apple TV+, while "High and Low" is on HBO Max and The Criterion Channel. Finally, we did a lengthy Movie News LIVE! Lots to talk about with fall festival season beginning, plus new trailers including "28 Years Later: The Bone Temple," and the gross use of AI to complete Orson Welles' "The Magnificent Ambersons."

Highest 2 Lowest, out today on Apple TV +, is the latest joint from Spike Lee.  The film is the latest adaptation of Ed McBain's King's Ransom and follows in the direct foorsteps of Akira Kurosawa's version, High and Low.  Shot on the streets of New York City by frequent Lee collaborator Matthew Libatique, the film also fuses several different musical cues and genres to create the story of a kidnapping gone wrong and the moral dilemma it presents for the music mogul now tasked with paying the ransom.  The film stars Denzel Washington, Jeffrey Wright, Ilfenesh Hadera, A$AP Rocky, John Douglas Thompson, Dean Winters, LaChanze, Princess Nokia, and Ice Spice.  Dan and Vicky break with Hot Date format once again to choose a film currently playing in cinemas.  They also discuss their recently seen including Netflix's Wednesday, 2025's Naked Gun, Freakier Friday, Weapons, Fantastic Four: First Steps and Went Up The Hill.

Zach Cregger's WEAPONS overlaps with Atom Egoyan's THE SWEET HEREAFTER in both its broad narrative setup — a town grapples with the sudden disappearance of a group of children — and its non-traditional structure, but diverges considerably in its tone. Then again, WEAPONS diverges considerably from its own tone as it goes on, artfully shifting gears as it makes its way through a story that prioritizes entertainment value over horror allegory. We're joined once again by Vulture movie critic Alison Willmore to talk about why that approach worked so well on us, and less so on the film's detractors, before bringing THE SWEET HEREAFTER back in to discuss how each film's broken timeline serves to reveal the intricacies of a community shattered by grief and anger. Then in Your Next Picture Show, we offer two recommendations for follow-up viewing, one for each half of this pairing. Please share your thoughts about THE SWEET HEREAFTER, WEAPONS, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Spike Lee and Denzel Washington first worked together on “Mo' Better Blues,” released in 1990. Washington starred as a trumpet player trying to make a living in jazz clubs; Lee, who directed the film, also played the musician's hapless manager. They later worked together on “Malcolm X” and other films, but it has been nearly twenty years since their last collaboration, the hugely successful “Inside Man.” So the new film “Highest 2 Lowest” is something of a reunion. “I've become a better director, working with Mr. Denzel Washington,” Lee tells David Remnick. “It's not about just what's on the script.  It has to be deeper than that.” “Highest 2 Lowest” is an adaptation of a 1963 movie by Akira Kurosawa, who has been a major influence on Lee. “The script came to me first,” Washington explains. “I hoped that Spike would be interested in it, so I called him up. He said, ‘Send it to me.' He read it. He said, ‘Let's make it,' and here we are.” Washington plays a music mogul targeted in a ransom plot; the feature is a crime drama with a message. “This film is about morals, and what someone will do and won't do,” Lee says. The audience “will ask themselves, ‘If you're in this situation, would you pay the ransom?' ”

According to the English poet Philip Larkin, the sixties saw the invention of sexual intercourse. While that may not be quite the case, it was certainly a time when a lot of people decided that it was time to revolutionise the way society dealt with sex. The Wilson government saw in a lot of reforms in this direction.There was a partial decriminalisation of gay sex. Abortion was legalised. Divorce was made easier.And there were reforms too in other fields, such as the abolition of the death penalty for murder, the first steps to make racial discrimination illegal, and an explosion in educational opportunity, above all in higher education.But there were plenty of bleak moments too. The Aberfan disaster in Wales was an appalling tragedy. Nor was the economy doing anything like as well as Wilson might have liked. Indeed, after resisting devaluation in 1964 and 1966, he finally had to give way in 1967, cutting the value of sterling by just over 14%.That would be used against him. He'd fallen out with the press and devaluing after saying he wouldn't gave it a cause on which to attack. Especially when he said that the ‘pound in your pocket' hadn't been devalued. Oh, boy, that would be used against him.The end of the sixties wasn't looking too good for him.Illustration: The Swinging Sixties: Carnaby Street, London.

Hello, fabulous fashion friends! Happy FRI-YAYYYYYY!! Welcome back to the Fashion Crimes Podcast, your weekly dose of style, inspiration, and all things fashion. Featuring your favorite personal stylist and the hostess with the mostest, Holly Katz, we are here to show you how to look chic without breaking the bank.   Wanna see us in the flesh? Check out our YouTube channel for the video of this episode!   This week, we're diving into a super fun topic – How to Mix High and Low End Pieces like a pro! We are about to give you all the secrets on how to elevate your wardrobe with a perfect blend of luxury AND affordable items.   Trust us, by the end of this episode, you'll know exactly how to rock designer accessories with budget-friendly staples. So grab your favorite earphones, turn up the volume, and let's gooooooo!   Outline of Key Topics Discussed:   1. Why Mixing High and Low Works o Create a balanced, effortlessly chic look that reflects your unique style. o Moderation is key. You don't need to wear all high-end or all low-end pieces. o The magic of blending designer pieces with more affordable finds to achieve that high-low vibe.   2. Identifying High-End vs. Low-End Pieces o High-end items: Designer accessories (bags, shoes, jewelry) and classic investment pieces. o Low-end items: Budget-friendly but stylish basics like tees, denim, and everyday items that don't need to break the bank.   3. High-End Accessories: The Key to Elevating Any Outfit o By spending your hard-earned dollars on high-end designer accessories, these are the staples that support and elevate any outfit. o Designer pieces should be used to create a polished, sophisticated look that will "level up" your lower-end pieces. o Example: Pair a $5 vintage baseball hat with a designer handbag and shoes for the ultimate high-low combo.   4. Low-End Staples: The Foundation of a Flexible Wardrobe o Find affordable yet stylish options like Levi's jeans, vintage tees, or a well-cut jacket that won't drain your wallet. o HOT TIP!  Mixing costume with your real jewelry makes all of your jewelry look more refined.  o Example: A vintage rock tee layered with a blazer, paired with designer shoes with an affordable statement earring: priceless!   5. Where to Shop for the Best High-Low Mix o Check out designer second-hand marketplaces like The RealReal or local consignment shops in your area for amazing finds. o Vintage stores and online sites like ThredUp can carry high-quality, less expensive options. o Shop strategically for sales or shop off-season to make sure you're investing in pieces that will last.   6. When to Splurge o Invest in timeless pieces that hold their value over time, like a designer handbag or quality jackets and scarves. o Always shop with fit and quality in mind—don't just buy for the label. o Think about longevity and versatility when selecting high-end pieces to mix into your wardrobe.   Final Words: Mixing high and low-end pieces is not only fun, but it's a savvy way to build a wardrobe that looks unexpected, sophisticated, and totally unique. Remember, fashion is about creating a look that feels true to YOU—whether it's from a luxury designer or a thrift store gem, mix it up and make it yours. And as always, we are here to help guide you through the process. You can give this a try, no matter your budget or current style.   Don't forget to check out our YouTube Channel for all the inspiration you need, and connect with us on Instagram for all the latest updates and style inspo you need.
