In this episode of the show our trip through John Landis comedies of the 1980s continues with Trading Places. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about this movie as less an example of the 80s-native edgy sketch comedy but rather an evocation of the spirit of classic screwball comedies in the style of Frank Capra and Howard Hawks. We talk about the chemistry between Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy, Hollywood slowly waking up to a possibility that a black star could carry a movie (but still only in an ensemble or a buddy setup) and where John Landis and his edge fits in all this. Finally, we discuss the infamous blackface scene and the gorilla gag, while also wondering about how exactly trading worked in the pre-digital era.

Cent'anni fa nasceva una stella che il mondo non ha mai dimenticato: Marilyn Monroe. Per ricordarla, Betty Senatore consiglia uno dei suoi film più famosi, la commedia musicale “Gli uomini preferiscono le bionde”, in cui è protagonista accanto a Jane Russell e diretta da Howard Hawks. Nella pellicola, Marilyn veste i panni di una ballerina pronta a sposare un ricco ereditiero. Se non fosse per il suocero, che decide di farla pedinare da un investigatore privato nel suo viaggio verso l'Europa.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today Matt, Todd, and would‑be companion Mike travel through spacetime and land in the Antarctic for the 6th serial of the 13th season of the classic BBC series Doctor Who.“Seeds of Doom” originally aired from January 31 to March 6, 1976, and if you're a fan of John Carpenter's The Thing, Howard Hawks' The Thing From Another World, or classic sci‑fi horror in general, you're going to feel right at home. This is one of the earliest and most effective examples of British TV doing icy paranoia and creeping body‑horror on a shoestring.Even if you only know Doctor Who from its 21st‑century resurgence starting with Christopher Eccleston, this story is anchored by perhaps the most iconic Doctor of all time: Tom Baker. His mix of alien aloofness and manic energy are as legend as his scarf is iconic.The adventure begins at a remote Antarctic research base where a mysterious seed pod is unearthed; one that quickly draws the attention of Harrison Chase, a criminally unhinged botanist / eco‑terrorist / millionaire played with comic‑villain perfection by Tony Beckley. And every great villain needs a henchman: John Challis delivers a Whit BIssell-winning performance clean sweep as Scorby; a man who looks like he was born to menace people in cold climates.Whether you're a longtime fan, a newcomer, or just someone who loves classic sci‑fi horror with a dash of British eccentricity, Seeds of Doom is one of the high points of the Tom Baker era. It's atmospheric, creepy, funny, and surprisingly intense, definitely one of our highest recommendations.
« Je peux être intelligente quand c'est important, mais la plupart des hommes n'aiment pas ça. » La célèbre réplique des hommes préfèrent les blondes de Howard Hawks (1953) pourrait, dans un sens, bien résumer les choses : Marilyn Monroe affronte l'impitoyable système des studios pendant sa courte carrière d'actrice à Hollywood (1946-1962) et reste aujourd'hui autant déconsidérée, comme interprète, qu'adulée en tant que star. Du fait de ses possibilités scénographiques, l'exposition est particulièrement appropriée à l'opulence visuelle que Monroe cristallise dans les années 50. Sa trajectoire à l'heure du Technicolor et de l'écran large s'illustre par le matériel publicitaire glamour, la garde-robe sexy, les portraits d'artistes de renom (Eve Arnold, Richard Avedon, Andy Warhol...) mais aussi les actualités analysant chaque décision de la célébrité. Ou commentant sa disparition qui ouvre, à l'âge de 36 ans, le spectaculaire chapitre de « sa vie » post mortem. Cet héritage est célébré dans une installation inspirée de la culture ballroom que Madonna – incarnation de la pop culture dans sa capacité à s'approprier les tendances pour les faire rayonner – popularise bien avant Drag Race. Avec nous pour en parler : - Florence Tissot, commissaire de l'exposition « Marilyn Monroe » - Ginette Vincendeau, historienne du cinéma.
While America is yet again fighting a war in the Middle East, I end Oscar Month by getting into the doin's of a legit WWI hero in Howard Hawks' Sergeant York. Gary Cooper plays the real-life hero, a dirt-poor man from the Tennessee mountains who's forced the join the army (mother), even though he's ag'in killin'. But when the chips are down, he's courageous and talented enough to kill a lot of Germans! America's entry into WWII helped make this the #1 hit of 1941. It also led to an Oscar for Super Duper Cooper, even though he often comes across as fake when talking like the real Alvin no doubt talked. But Mr. Stiff's conversion from no-goodnik to Bible lover to German killer (and his romance with a very young Joan Leslie) IS heartfelt. Plus, the great Hawks was almost incapable of making an unwatchable movie. So whet your sights when they force you to be a doughboy while you also cue up the 729th episode of Have You Ever Seen.

Un luogo in cui le parole possono essere letali quanto le pallottole, il progresso una minaccia e la Morte una garanzia. Uno scenario di atti crudeli ma anche di nobili gesti. Questo e molto di più è il Western cinematografico. Godiamocelo!Il mito della frontiera! Cowboy, duelli e vacche (intese come mucche) a profusione!Ma che cosa c'è per davvero dietro questa incredibile mitologia che ha formato il cinema americano come lo conosciamo oggi?Kevin Costner se lo è chiesto diverse volte nella sua carriera da regista, dal suo esordio "Balla coi lupi" al più recente "Horizon: An American Saga". Ma nel mezzo c'è stato anche il troppo sottovalutato "Open Range", sentito omaggio a Howard Hawks e tentativo riuscitissimo di KEVIN di voler raccontare la verità dietro le pallottole e il romanticismo (presunto o tale) che ha reso grande il mito della frontiera!
This Valentine's Day, Ian and Jeff explore the darker side of a comedy classic, His Girl Friday!Howard Hawks' uproarious and influential rom-com centers on Hildy Johnson (Rosalind Russell), a former newspaper reporter who clashes with her ex-publisher/ex-husband, Walter Burns (Cary Grant) over a breaking story. She's supposed to marry an insurance salesman (Ralph Bellamy), but gets tempted into covering a political conflict involving the pending execution of a cop killer (John Qualen).His Girl Friday takes place over a rapid-talking, action-packed 12 hours, during which Hildy and Walter re-evaluate their rocky relationship. The question is: should they be together?In this unusual look at a beloved, iconic film, the guys dig beneath the laughs to get at the heart of two characters who may not have one--caught in a business and a system too corrupt for anyone's good.They also compare His Girl Friday to Lewis Milestone's The Front Page, which came out in 1931 and was the inspiration for Hawks' gender-swapped comedy!Support Kicking the Seat on Patreon, subscribe to us on YouTube, and follow us at:XLetterboxdInstagramFacebookShow LinksWatch the His Girl Friday (1940) trailer.Pick up Criterion's recent 4K release of His Girl Friday (which includes a newly restored version of 1931's The Front Page!).Support all of Earth's Mightiest Critics at their various outlets:Keep up with Jeff York's criticism and caricatures at The Establishing Shot and Pipeline Artists.Check out Mark "The Movie Man" Krawczyk's The Spoiler Room Podcast.Get seated with The Blonde in Front!Follow David Fowlie's film criticism at Keeping It Reel.Get educated with Don Shanahan at Every Movie Has a Lesson…...And Film Obsessive...and the Cinephile Hissy Fit Podcast.Keep up with Annie Banks at The Mary Sue....and We Got This Covered.Make Nice with Mike Crowley of You'll Probably Agree.And save your celluloid soul with Dave Canfield's Substack, "Creature Feature Preacher".

A month of classic Hollywood romances kicks off with Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell trading quips at a mile a minute in His Girl Friday. Howard Hawks' adaptation of the newspaper comedy The Front Page changes the two battling newspaper men into a divorced husband and wife - an editor and his star reporter he doesn't want to let go off to a life of domestic bliss with a dud of a new husband. We'll hear Grant in "The Black Curtain" (originally aired on CBS on December 2, 1943) and Ms. Russell in "Consideration" (originally aired on CBS on February 3, 1950). Then, they recreate their film roles on The Gulf Screen Guild Theatre (AFRS rebroadcast from March 30, 1941).

Casablanca is a film that Sean and I have wanted to cover for a long time, but there was a little bit of a struggle to find a good film to pair it with. Not because there were so few, but because there were so MANY. Finally we came up with focusing on Humphrey Bogart himself rather than on the overall theme of the film. And then there was the realization that Bogart had a couple of films where he was a reluctant hero in a World War Two setting, with the key word being "reluctant." So we open with Casablanca, from 1942, directed by Michael Curtiz. Hal Wallis got the rights to the play just a few weeks after Pearl Harbor, so it wound up having a much bigger impact than it might have had before we entered the war. In Part Two, we see how Howard Hawks would handle a reluctant hero.
We continue this episode with To Have and Have Not, a 1944 production directed by Howard Hawks. In this film, Bogart plays a sport tourism fisherman who's asked to use his boat to assist the French Resistance in Martinique. He meets up with Marie "Slim" Browning (Lauren Bacall) and that's where the fireworks started, both on and off screen. If you don't know how to whistle, Bacall offers up a fine lesson for you. COMING ATTRACTIONS: Next time, we take our first foray into silent films, with DW Griffith's Intolerance, from 1916, and Liberty Heights, from 1999, directed by Barry Levinson. These films were made in response to criticisms of earlier films from those directors. Join us, won't you?
⭐Rio Lobo (1970) Review: Hawks, Wayne, and a Fading Western Era⭐
In this episode, Austin and Tim travel back in time to 1952 to watch 7 movies: William Wyler's Carrie, Bob Hope in My Favorite Spy, Native Son, Cecil B. Demille's The Greatest Show on Earth, The Miracle, She's Working Her Way Through College, and Howard Hawks' The Big Sky.
Howard Hawks desarrolló un estilo cinematográfico sobrio y directo, en el que la narración fluía con naturalidad y sin artificios. Trabajaba minuciosamente los guiones junto a excelentes escritores, lo que le permitió construir películas de una claridad narrativa excepcional. Su cine está poblado por héroes íntegros, con pocos villanos, y por mujeres independientes, valientes y seductoras que no renuncian a su femineidad. Bajo esta aparente sencillez, Hawks articuló un lenguaje fílmico de profunda inteligencia narrativa y notable riqueza emocional. En la segunda conferencia del ciclo “Howard Hawks: Un artista americano”, el crítico de cine y jurista Eduardo Torres-Dulce profundiza en el universo cinematográfico del director, subrayando la coherencia estilística y la hondura temática que definen su obra.Más información de este acto

Nacido en Indiana en una familia acomodada, Howard Hawks fue un cineasta profundamente estadounidense. Aunque inició su carrera en la era del cine mudo, fue con la llegada del sonoro cuando consolidó su estilo y versatilidad. Su independencia creativa le permitió dirigir obras maestras en casi todos los géneros, con títulos como Scarface, Tener y no tener, Los caballeros las prefieren rubias y Río Rojo, entre muchas otras. En la primera conferencia del ciclo “Howard Hawks: Un artista americano”, el crítico de cine y jurista, Eduardo Torres-Dulce, repasa la biografía de uno de los cineastas más icónicos del Hollywood clásico.

Muchos la recuerdan sobre todo por su papel de señora Fletcher en la serie de televisión “Se ha escrito un crimen” pero lo cierto es que Angela Lansbury tuvo también una notable carrera en el cine y en el teatro. Este 16 de octubre se ha cumplido el centenario de su nacimiento y nosotros lo celebramos dándole un repaso a su carrera. El estreno de la película “La hermanastra fea” nos sirve de excusa para buscar en nuestra “Enciclopedia curiosa del cine” el capítulo dedicado a Cenicienta y el cine. Charlamos con el director Miguel Ángel Vivas que acaba de estrenar su última película, “La tregua”, y en la sección de Jack Bourbon tenemos esta semana una película de cazadores en África protagonizada por John Wayne: “Hatari” de Howard Hawks.
On the first night of our #CountdownToHalloween the Mister joins me in reviewing THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD (1951), from John W Campbell Jr's novella "Who Goes There?", the film was directed by Christian Nyby and Howard Hawks (uncredited). The screenplay is credited to Charles Lederer; although production records and later sources note rewrites and contributions (uncredited) from Howard Hawks and Ben Hecht. The film tells the story of a U.S. Air Force crew and a team of scientists at a remote Arctic research outpost discover a crashed alien flying saucer and a large, humanoid creature frozen in a block of ice. When a careless mistake thaws the eight-foot-tall, plant-like alien, the group must fend off the murderous "Thing" that feeds on blood and exhibits frightening intelligence. As the military personnel and the lead scientist clash over whether to destroy or attempt to communicate with the creature, the survivors must devise a plan to electrocute the alien menace before it can breed and escape the isolated base. The film clocks in at 1 h and 27 m, is rated Approved. We caught the film on Internet Archives but it is streaming on Tubi, Roku Channel, Fawesome but also to buy/rent on Prime Video. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.#TheThingFromAnotherWorld #JohnWCampbellJr #ChristianNyby #CharlesLederer #BenHecht #HowardHawks #KennethTobey #CaptainPatrickHendry #MargaretSheridan #Nikki #RobertCornthwaite #DrCarrington #DouglasSpence #Scotty #JamesYoung #LtEddieDykes #DeweyMartin #CrewChief #RobertNichols #LtKenErickson #WilliamSelf #CorporalBarnes #EduardFranz #DrStern #SallyCreighton #MrsChapman #JamesArness #TheThing #AlienInvasion #MonsterHorror #SupernaturalHorror #Horror #SciFi @internetarchive_ @PrimeVideo @Tubi @TheRokuChannel @FawesomeTV #31DaysToHalloween #SpookySeason #Day1 #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library
Cary Grant month continues as we discuss THE quintessential screwball comedy, Bringing Up Baby. Howard Hawks directed the 1938 film which stars Cary Grant as engaged paleontologist David Huxley, who is trying to score a one million dollar grant for his museum when he crosses paths with Susan Vance (Katharine Hepburn), a wonderfully chaotic disruption to his plans. From a missing intercostal clavicle to a leopard named Baby (played by a charming cat named Neissa), Grant and Hepburn are delightful in this very funny classic.

Submit your film or screenplay to the WILDsound Festival today: https://filmfreeway.com/WILDsoundFilmandWritingFestival What is a Screwball Comedy? A comedy that is characterized by fast-paced, witty dialogue, farcical situations, and romantic storylines that often involve a battle of the sexes. They emerged in the 1930s and became popular in the 1940s. How is it different than a straight up romantic comedy? Screwball is a genre that focuses less the romantic courtship between two people, and more on the battle of the sexes. It always has a strong female protagonist, and usually a male protagonist trying to keep up with her. It puts the emphasis on the spoofing of love, rather than the "will they get together" plot. Where did the term "screwball" come from? It gets its name from the baseball pitch "the screwball". For those unfamiliar with baseball, it's a pitch a pitcher throws to a batter that moves in the opposite direction than a typical baseball pitch like a fastball, curveball, or slider. A screwball is an oddball pitch, like the female leads in the 1930s comedy films where they played the "opposite" of your typical female stereotype that were back in the day. Instead of wanting to find a husband, birth a few babies and be a homemaker - the female leads in the "screwball comedy" are strong, independent from men, and want to focus their life on their passions. They are attracted to men, but will only begin a courtship of any kind if it was on their terms - not the mans. Famous screwball comedy films? It Happened One Night (1934) Directed by Frank Capra. Starred Clark Gable & Claudette Colbert Bringing Up Baby (1938) Directed by Howard Hawks. Starred Katharine Hepburn & Cary Grant The Philadelphia Story (1940). Directed by George Cukor. Also Starred Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant. With James Stewart added to the mix. The brand declined in popularity through the years, but it still shows up in its style. The Coen Brothers have made a few with "Intolerable Cruelty", "The Hudsucker Proxy", and "Hail Caeser" Bridesmaids (2011), written and starring Kristen Wiig is considered a screwball comedy. Is any one a fan of Amy Sherman-Palladino TV shows?: Gilmore Girls. The Marvelous Mr. Maisel. Étoile. Those television shows are more definitely classic Screwball Comedies. From the characters. plot points. fast paced dialogue. Even the way the shows are directed - are classic screwball! Enjoy the past, present, and future of the Screwball Comedy!

In the 1960s, many American directors saw their fortunes turn after they notched massive hits. In the case of Howard Hawks – a director who had thrived in virtually every Hollywood genre since the late silent era– the undisputed masterpiece of Rio Bravo gave way to four poorly-received efforts, each of which bared the marks of a dying studio system, if they weren't compromised by the literal dying off of the previous generation of stars. In the middle of this run, Hawks made Red Line 7000, a car racing drama which was at once familiar and personal to Hawks, and also totally foreign in that it was a movie set in the 1960s, infused with ‘60s sexual politics, and built around future New Hollywood star James Caan.
