In celebration of Mother's Day, we are revisiting one of our favorite themes: Great Mother Characters (our third installment). In this episode, we are highlighting immigrant mothers with three powerful and inspiring films. We start with the epic tale of generational courage, trauma, and perseverance in the 1993 classic Joy Luck Club. Second, an underrated gem that highlights the incredible sacrifice of immigrant mothers in Under the Same Moon. Finally, Irene Dunne's Academy Award-nominated performance as Martha in the heartwarming classic, I Remember Mama. Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful mothers out there. Let us know what you think of these great films and what your go-to Mother's Day movie is. ❗️SEND US A TEXT MESSAGE ❗️Support the showSign up for our Patreon for exclusive Bonus Content.Follow the podcast on Instagram @gimmethreepodcastYou can keep up with Bella on Instagram @portraitofacinephile or Letterboxd You can keep up with Nick: on Instagram @nicholasybarra, on Twitter (X) @nicholaspybarra, or on LetterboxdShout out to contributor and producer Sonja Mereu.

George Feltenstein joins the podcast to review the five Blu-ray releases in September.  We start with Orson Welles' "Journey into Fear," a film that, despite its tumultuous production, bears the unmistakable mark of his Mercury Theatre influence. We continue with a spotlight on the Technicolor splendor of Esther Williams in "Bathing Beauty." The meticulous restoration reveals the film's vibrant musical scenes that catapulted Williams to stardom. Next, we discuss the noir "Conflict" starring Humphrey Bogart in a darker, anti-hero role.  And then we delve into the heartfelt story of "I Remember Mama," highlighting George Stevens' post-war directorial vision and his son's dedication to preserving his legacy. We end with a Hanna-Barbera double feature with "JONNY'S GOLDEN QUEST (1992)/JONNY QUEST VS. THE CYBER INSECTS (1995)".  Purchase links:CONFLICT BATHING BEAUTYI REMEMBER MAMAJOURNEY INTO FEAR JONNY'S GOLDEN QUEST (1992)/JONNY QUEST VS.

In “It's A Wonderful Life,” BEULAH BONDI played the most loving mother to JAMES STEWART. Ma Bailey is the epitome of sweetness, kindness, and supportiveness so it's quite shocking when we meet the Ma Bailey who would have existed had George Bailey not been born. She's cold, bitter, and unkind. It gives Bondi the wonderful opportunity to play two versions of the same character, which she does flawlessly. So to celebrate Mother's Day, Nan and Steve are taking a page from Bondi's playbook as they discuss the good and bad mothers of classic cinema.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Moms in the Movies (2014), by Richard Corliss; Actresses of a Certain Character (2007), by Axel Nissen; Irene Dunne: First Lady of Hollywood (2006), by Wes D.

"The Addams Family" and "Elf"'s lighting designer Natasha Katz talks about the path of her career, beginning with a high school community service requirement that saw her volunteering at a (now-defunct) Off-Broadway theatre and her semester away from Oberlin College as an intern/observer of designer Roger Morgan on the musical "I Remember Mama" which brought her into immediate contact with such notables as Liv Ullmann and Richard Rodgers. She discusses her on the job training (sans graduate school) with such figures as special effects whiz Bran Ferren and lighting designers Marcia Madeira and Ken Billington; explains why she thinks it takes longer now to mount a musical than it did when she began; how a tumultuous relationship with director Clifford Williams led to her Broadway debut at a very young age; what she learned from her work Off-Broadway and in regional theatre, including some 30 productions at the Dallas Theatre Center; why her task is to focus on two key elements -- people and sets -- and to both separate and unite them; how she comes to love a show that she didn't necessarily enjoy reading simply by virtue of working on it; when she joins the creative process with the director and other designers -- and whether that's always at the right time; how she constantly references and stays familiar with lighting in other shows and even other mediums; what it was like to be part of a triumvirate of designers for "The Coast of Utopia"; and why she thinks lighting design was initially very open to female designers and why she believes it's headed in the wrong direction today. Original air date - January 12, 2011.
