Podcasts about how to build a girl

"My story doesn't begin with a boy. It begins with me." The Wives Colangelo are joined this week by the brilliant Mallory O'Meara to talk about the underseen should-be coming-of-age classic, HOW TO BUILD A GIRL. Together they agonize about what it's like to work in male-dominated industries, praise the always fantastic Beanie Feldstein, and preach the gospel of author Caitlin Moran. This movie is so much more than "ALMOST FAMOUS but for girls," so listen as they break it down!------Buy Girls Make Movies!http://www.malloryomeara.com/girls-make-moviesFollow Mallory: @MalloryOMeara Listen to the Reading Glasses Podcast: https://maximumfun.org/podcasts/reading-glasses/------Become a Patron! www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom-------- Find the Show on Twitter & Instagram: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo —Twitter & Instagram: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo — Twitter & Instagram: @Veloci_trap_tor----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

We fought valiantly against bad network connections and awful weather to bring you our thoughts! A Bob Dylan jukebox musical theatre show.. it's an unlikely idea. Did the cast of Girl From the North Country impress The Captain? El Tele has a problem - eating with chopsticks? What's all that about? The Captain knows what he prefers to eat with too.El Tele has found another series to slump onto the sofa and watch, and listens to a new podcast starring Jim Moir and Morgana Robinson. Prompted by El Tele's viewing of How To Build A Girl, we delve into a discussion of film adaptations of books. Do they disappoint or delight? Let us know. Another question that's bugging us.. can you think of any pop stars who went on to be well respected in other music genres?We say farewell to James Caan and Monty Norman (mentioned in our James Bond Special), and ask you for a favour, dear listeners.Show notes and links at https://www.onlyapodcast.com/episode-19-chopstick-chat-and-films-of-books/

Caitlin Moran is a London-based columnist, author, and broadcaster, who is one of the funniest feminist writers working today. Her first book, the 2011 memoir, How to Be a Woman, was an instant New York Times bestseller. And her 2014 autobiographical coming-of-age novel, How to Build a Girl, was adapted into a film starring Beanie Feldstein that premiered in 2019. When Caitlin finished How to Be a Woman in her mid-30s, she thought she had everything figured out. But now, 10 years later, she’s debuting a whole new memoir, More Than a Woman, that asks probing mid-life questions including, Can feminists have Botox? And, Who’s looking after the children? In this LOL episode of BUST’s Poptarts podcast, we talk a LOT about vaginas and vulvas (and the difference between the two), and we get real about the unpaid labor shitshow so many women find themselves in once their 30s are in the rear-view.

This week, Elaine's had what we're calling a ‘grief week'. So the first part of the pod goes into baby loss and bereavement, and if that's something you want to avoid – jump ahead to Mark's rather entertaining rant about The Emmys (8:26).   We've been watching US witches fight in alternate-world drama Fort Salem (13:57), French people surf in supernatural series The Last Wave (20:39), and Brits doing questionable accents in coming of age comedy How To Build A Girl (27:47).   Our Date Night movie was First Blood (or, as Elaine likes to call it, Rambo) (37:24). It did not go as Mark anticipated…

With the continuing lack of new cinematic releases we return to the home streaming well with a couple of titles recently made available on Amazon and Apple TV+. First up is Caitlin Moran's coming of age memoir 'How To Build A Girl' followed by a war thriller penned by and starring Tom Hanks in 'Greyhound'

Welcome to Chris and Rifa's bitesize arts, diversity and culture review show. This week we watch the third season of Norwegian viking comedy Norsemen on Netflix. Then Rifa has an unexpectedly strong reaction to new film How To Build A Girl, starring Beanie Feldstein, directed by Coky Giedroyc and based on Caitlin Moran's comic fictionalised memoir. In What You Reading For? Rifa has joined a book club and is reading Season Butler's novel Cygnet, while Chris is reading our old friend Kate Bulpitt's debut novel Purple People. Thank you very much for listening. Find us on Insta and Facebook – and please leave us a nice five star review and all that jazz.

Caitlin Moran and Coky Giedroyc give exclusive interviews about their new film How To Build A Girl, a coming-of-age tale of rock n roll and reinvention amid the male-dominated music press of the 1990s. The film is based on the Moran's girlhood in working-class Wolverhampton. Like her heroine Johanna (played by Booksmart star Beanie Feldstein), Moran began her journalistic career as a rock critic aged just 16. She is now a broadcaster, Times columnist, author and contemporary voice on feminism. Director Coky Giedroyc - sister of Mel - joins us to celebrate sexuality and sanitary towels in cinema, and tells us about working with the marvellous Beanie Feldstein. Sharing her tips on surviving and thriving as a female director, she has high hopes for the future of women in film and the fighting spirit to achieve them. How To Build A Girl is available now exclusively on Amazon Prime.

With Antonia Quirke Film producer Luc Roeg talks about his only acting role, as a seven year old boy alongside Jenny Agutter in Walkabout. He reveals what it was like to be directed by his dad, Nic, and why he really didn't like swimming naked in the film's most famous scene. Coky Giedroyc, the director of How To Build A Girl, gives her tips for young female filmmakers on how to survive and thrive in a male dominated industry. Writer Nat Segnit pitches a remake of La Grande Bouffe, in which some middle class friends eat themselves to death over a long weekend, to industry insiders Clare Binns, Rowan Woods and Lizzie Francke Director Carol Morley introduces her final choice for Friday Film Club, the online movie club that she set up when the cinemas closed down.

At the heart of this week's Empire Podcast is an extended interview with the legendary Sir Patrick Stewart, who talks to Chris Hewitt about Shakespeare, sonnets, stage fright, and the worst birthday he's ever had. They also talk about Patrick's new movie, Life With Music, in which he plays a concert pianist, and Patrick delves into his past for a spot of old Yorkshire dialect that has to be heard to be believed. In the socially isolated virtual podbooth, Chris is then joined by Helen O'Hara, James Dyer and, in the rotating fourth chair this week, Ben Travis and his incredible quiff, for our most delirious lockdown episode yet. Together, they tackle the new film fact section, discuss great movie tie-in songs of the 80s and 90s (and an old friend returns to the pod as a result), talk about the week's movie news (this was recorded before EVERY MOVIE IN THE WORLD moved back to 2021), and review Life With Music, Saint Frances, and How To Build A Girl. There's also a sweet Sundance London offer for podcast listeners in there too. Enjoy.

In this week's Sunday interview special of Radio 1's Screen Time, Ali speaks to the always-wonderful Beanie Feldstein. If you don't know Beanie already, you better go watch Booksmart and Lady Bird ASAP - seriously, they're great movies - before you see her tackle a lead role in her latest, How To Build A Girl. Not only is she in almost every scene, but she also tackles the incredibly tricky Wolverhampton accent, which we discuss at length here, as well as her favourite British words, strangers treating her like they're best friends and the concept of 'British culture shock'. It's a thing. Kind of. Maybe.

Karen Gibson aka “Godmother of Gospel” who shot to worldwide fame in 2018 after she appeared conducting The Kingdom Choir at the Royal Wedding of Harry and Meghan – tells me about the Choir’s new single Real Love.

*This episode was recorded over 2 weeks in advance*This week the 2 Dudes hop across the pond to England to check out How to Build a Girl. Ok, so they actually just watched it at home but they still got a new movie to talk about. The Trailer Park this week is for the new Spike Lee Joint, Da 5 Bloods. Spoilers late in the episode.

Coky Giedroyc’s HOW TO BUILD A GIRL, based on British humorist Caitlin Moran’s own life as a teenage music writer in the British Midlands, plays in many ways like Cameron Crowe’s mostly autobiographical ALMOST FAMOUS, translated to a new time and place. But it’s also a different sort of coming-of-age story about a very different sort of protagonist, based on the life of a very different sort of writer, all of which we get into by way of the two films’ respective approaches to writing and journalism, to family and origin stories, and to their respective love interests. Plus, Your Next Picture Show, where we share recent filmgoing experiences in hopes of putting something new on your cinematic radar.

Paul and Erin review two films about men whose entire lives are broadcast on national TV. Our art pick is Peter Weir's 1998 fable THE TRUMAN SHOW, starring Jim Carrey; and our trash pick is Ron Howard's 1999 comedy EdTV, starring Matthew McConnaughey. Plus: our quick takes on HOW TO BUILD A GIRL, SEBERG, EXTRA ORDINARY and THE TRIP TO GREECE.

The new HOW TO BUILD A GIRL is a heavily autobiographical film about a teenage music journalist, which means it inevitably gets mentioned in the same breath as Cameron Crowe’s ALMOST FAMOUS, a heavily autobiographical 2000 film about a teenage music journalist, this one inspired by Crowe’s own past as Rolling Stone magazine’s youngest-ever correspondent. In this first half of our pairing looking at young, uncool kids chasing their own ideals of cool, we dig into ALMOST FAMOUS—in particular the much longer, and superior UNTITLED cut thereof—to see how it weaves its undeniable spell, how it occasionally drops the ball (particularly when it comes to Kate Hudson’s Penny Lane), and how our own experiences as entertainment journalists color the film’s message that “these are not your friends.” Plus, we tackle a couple of the numerous responses we got to our recent, contentious discussion on THE ASSISTANT. Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about ALMOST FAMOUS, HOW TO BUILD A GIRL, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.    Outro Music: Elton John, “Tiny Dancer” Learn more about your ad choices.

In the final installment of ‘This Is Your Movie Life,’ we reveal the movies that meant the most to us in our early thirties.

Another week housebound, another week streaming! First up it’s HOW TO BUILD A GIRL (3:05), the Beanie Feldstein-starring coming-of-age tale about a young woman who’s trying to find herself amid shady parents, asshole colleagues, and her own bad decisions. Then it’s SPACESHIP EARTH (23:20) a documentary that is NOT about EPCOT Center or Buckminster Fuller (or Steve Bannon, though he makes an appearance), but about the are-they-wackos who designed and lived in Biosphere 2. Finally, it’s more coming-of-age with Alice Wu’s THE HALF OF IT (41:34)! This movie stands out for its Cyrano-de-Bergerac-with-a-queer-twist plot that met with three different opinions from Evan, Megan, and Dave. Over on Patreon, we talk about REC, the 2007 horror movie that feels waaaaaaay too timely.

The guys are back at it, disagreeing with each other about the new Beanie Feldstein film How To Build A Girl.

This brilliant British columnist is incisive, tenacious, inspiring, and hilariously fun. Caitlin Moran talks with us about her definition of feminism, why cynicism is the worst, and how the most effective tool against patriarchal nonsense is subversive laughter. Because everyone--even Britain's filthiest feminist--is a little nerdy about something.

Happy Halloween! This week's spookily fabulous guest is CAITLIN MORAN, who joins us to discuss her new book HOW TO BUILD A GIRL as well as: how many miles of foreskin she's likely witnessed in her years on the planet, her start in the music journalism world, Robbie Coltrane's doability, and how Jimmy Jazz is "eligible".... plus FEMINISM / REVOLUTION STUFF like: why rape needs to be REBRANDED as a penetrative attack, how women need to be able to start their days without thinking of themselves as a problem, what her kids say when they fall down, how culture can do what politics can't in terms of affecting change, and how the makeover scene in her book is different and better than what we are all used to. Oh- also, Caitlin and Julie are very glad that Margaret Thatcher is dead. Plus! Alice Cooper and his wonderful concert, the chief demo of this show and why it's important for them to know that I'm on new meds, Meep/Taylor Swift saturation, the shade thrown at box springs, Chelsea Handler's great ideas about sexism as it pertains to her own bare breasts, and the winner of the Halloween Costume Contest that we didn't even know was a contest until a genius woman sent in a photo of her dog dressed up as Ann Rule.
