Illeana Douglas is an avid student of the movies who grew up, stepped onto a set and entered the big screen of her childhood dreams. Her deep interest and knowledge of film legend and lore provided her with rich opportunities to engage in meaningful conversations with the stars and directors she has imagined meeting and then encountered along her way, including Robert De Niro, Robert Redford, Marlon Brando, Martin Scorsese, Roddy McDowall and so many more. With a rare ability to manifest full circle moments, Illeana has  worked with the two men who upended her childhood, Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda. Their film, Easy Rider had inspired her father to check out of suburbia and into a hippy commune, leaving the family financially destitute. That struggle is documented in her award winning book, I Blame Dennis Hopper. As a starving actress, Illeana went to work for a publicist in the Brill Building and years later, starred in Grace of My Heart, about songwriters in the Brill Building. Her fascination with her lost suburban childhood led her to write a new book called, Connecticut in the movies, WHILE she was restoring her own Connecticut dream home, a similar desperate effort to that of Mr. Blandings. Connecticut's role in American movies has evolved over the years from that of a metaphor for healthy, country living (Holiday Inn, Christmas In Connecticut) to a representation of our post-war suburban shift, the strain the work commute placed on marriages and the racism found in planned communities, (The Man In The Gray Flannel Suit, Gentleman's Agreement) to a depiction of dark suburbia and societal collapse (The Swimmer, The Ice Storm), to horror and dystopia. (The Stepford Wives, Let's Scare Jessica To Death.) Illeana, is a complete delight and she joins us for an in depth discussion about all things movie and many things Connecticut.

In this chat, we get to meet actor and writer Illeana Douglas. Illeana is best known for her film work, costarring in films as wide-ranging as Scorsese's Cape Fear, Gus Van Sant's To Die For, or (one of my personal favorites) Terry Zwigoff's Ghost World. In addition to her film and television, Illeana is also an accomplished writer and film historian, and she has just published her second book, entitled Connecticut in the Movies. In this chat, Illeana and I discuss a LOT about her new book, which was especially exciting given that I grew up in Connecticut just like she did. We talk about the many different versions of CT that have been seen in the movies, the cliches and stereotypes, and the varied styles of films made or set here - from dark suburban dramas to sex comedies. We talk about how surprisingly integral CT has been to filmmaking, and how the state's perception has shifted and ping-ponged from accurate to, well, less-so. We touch on Mystic Pizza's place as our emblematic film, the idea that characters from CT have something odious to hide, and much more. Now, we recorded this while the SAG strike was still ongoing, so we couldn't talk much of her acting work. But fear not - there was plenty to talk about. Thank you for listening.

Film star Illeana Douglas is Jen's guest today. Ileana is the author of the gorgeous new book: Connecticut in the Movies: From Dream Houses to Dark Suburbia. This spans around 100 years from the silent film era up through the early 21st Century. This beautiful coffee table book is filled with delicious never-before-seen movie stills and back lot stories. Illeana  has starred in too many films to mention. You know her from the movies including Cape Fear, Ghost of My Heart, Good Fellas, and To Die For, plus the many television shows like Entourage, Seinfeld, and Six Feet Under. Her first book, I Blame Dennis Hopper: And Other Stories from a Life Lived In and Out of the Movies was named Best Pop Culture book of the year in 2015 by Entertainment Weekly. With Connecticut in the Movies, readers revisit classic films and are introduced to deep cuts. Illeana also places more contemporary films in context. My favorite chapter is Dark Suburbia Redux which focuses on more contemporary films like The Ice Storm 1997, directed by Ang Lee and starring Kevin Kline and Sigourney Weaver.   I love it, but so do so many others. Here's what Pulitizer-Prize winning investigative journalist Ronan Farrow had to say: “In Connecticut in the Movies, Illeana Douglas puts on her historian's hat and takes readers on a compelling tour of her adopted state's surprising, colorful, and sometimes dark history in cinema. Her adoration of the state, and the movies, leaps off of these pages—and it's infectious.” Contact Booked Up: You can email Jen & the Booked Up team at: BOOKEDUP@POLITICON.COM or by writing to:  BOOKED UP  P.O.

The thought of investing in new dental technology can be overwhelming. In general, change can be hard – add the significant capital investment new technology brings, and it's easy to understand why some dentists put off upgrading their equipment. But by waiting too long to upgrade your dental equipment, you might be short-changing yourself on new technologies that can increase the efficiency of your dental practice, improve your operation margins, and make your practice more attractive to potential patients. In this episode, we're speaking with Ileana Cruz, territory manager for Patterson Dental. Currently covering the South Florida region, Ileana has been in the dental equipment business for over 24 years and oversees many different areas, including technology, software, supplies, and services.

In my interview today, I talk with Illeana Salvo, a new nomadic traveler with an incredible story of how she turned her love of languages at an early age into the chance to travel internationally, live in Japan, and then eventually become location independent through helping one of her online language students with a new project. From dealing with taxes when you're not really based in one country to how to handle the feeling that you're missing out on climbing the corporate ladder by being nomadic, Illeana and I discuss a number of issues that can come up for new digital nomads. I hope you enjoy Illeana's story and find it useful for questions you may have about leading this nomadic lifestyle.

Frankie Cena and Aneal Joshua break down the latest Bachelor in Paradise Canada rose ceremony and talk new addition. Frankie sits down for a THYRST exclusive interview with Adam and Chris to talk their post-boot experience and life after paradise. FOLLOW FRANKIE Instagram - www.instagram.com/frankiecena/ FOLLOW ANEAL JOSHUA Instagram - www.instagram.com/thyrstboy/ Twitter - www.twitter.com/thyrstboy/ FOLLOW THYRST Instagram - www.instagram.com/thisisthyrst/ Picking up where they left off, Adam and Illeana rounded out their hockey date with some telling conversation. Attempting to see the lighter side of Adam but not getting quite what she was looking for, Illeana ultimately realized that her heart was still with Brendan S. Despite being “rocked to his core” by Illeana's rejection, Adam quickly switched gears, setting his sights on Caitlin and causing the rest of the Campers to question his sincerity. Pulling out all the stops, Adam worked hard to win Caitlin over, surprising her with flowers, setting up pillows and blankets by the beach, and going in for a kiss in front of everyone - Kamil included - which Caitlin promptly shut down. Meanwhile, the wildcard rose of the night belonged to Lisa, who struggled to decide who she would give it to, as the outliers - Josh, Chris, David, and Jeremy - all pleaded their case during the Cocktail Party. At the Rose Ceremony, she ultimately chose to continue exploring her connection with Josh, and Caitlin followed her heart towards Kamil, sending Adam, Chris, David, and Jeremy home. Shaking things up even further, the power of the rose was once again in the hands of the men, as two new arrivals - alumni Bianka (The Bachelor Canada, Season 1) and newcomer Nicole - hit the beach. As the two attempted to get to know the group, it became obvious that Kamil and Nicole were spending a little extra get-to-know-you time together, sending Caitlin into a tailspin. Having just turned down a date offer from Mike (which did not go over well with Stacy), Caitlin was left questioning whether Kamil would ever step up and give her the effort and attention she feels she truly deserves.

There are times when others have a vision for us.  They want to see us successful and they help us to map our next steps. These are wonderful friends and mentors, but sometimes, our priorities for ourselves may be a little different than those that some have for us.  Or sometimes, we may simply accept that their vision for us should be our priority.  Do you know YOUR priority? Join Mary as she speaks to the very dynamic Illeana Casiano-Vazquez who has confronted challenges that helped her to clearly define her priorities and in so doing, helped her move forward in the way that SHE wanted to move forward. Since the start of her career, Illeana's experiences have been punctuated by two key themes: client and crew leadership. She is a highly engaged business leader that has consistently demonstrated strong communication skills, relationship management, and strategic thinking to positively influence our clients and crew. She's  been a leader in five divisions, both in general manager and project manager capacities, serving internal and external clients. In addition, throughout her leadership in HOLA, Vanguard's Latino/Hispanic Crew Resource Group, she has been able to act on her passion for attracting diverse people to her  firm.

Aneal Joshua and Frankie Cena recap the first-ever episode of Bachelor in Paradise Canada. The two proud Bachelor Nation fans break down their favourite entrances, all the couples, and play matchmaker with each other.

FOLLOW FRANKIE Instagram - www.instagram.com/frankiecena/ FOLLOW ANEAL JOSHUA Instagram - www.instagram.com/thyrstboy/ Twitter - www.twitter.com/thyrstboy/ FOLLOW THYRST Instagram - www.instagram.com/thisisthyrst/ Camp Paradise is in session! As the party boat arrived at the dock, one by one 14 of the most eligible bachelors and bachelorettes from both the franchise and #BachelorNation were greeted by host Jesse Jones to officially begin their search for love at summer camp. Fan-favourite alumni arrivals were Brendan S., Illeana, Kamil, Lisa, Angela, Chris, Caitlin, and Stacy; while the #BachelorNation arrivals featured newcomers Brendan M., Jeremy, Ana, Kit, Joey (who brought his “Alberta flavour” in a cowboy hat, boots, and not much else), and Alice, the winner of “Canada Chooses the Perfect Companion with Expedia.” Within the first few arrivals, fast feelings were already forming - most notably the undeniable and magnetic connection between Brendan S. and Illeana. Meanwhile, on the other end of the beach, Lisa let her insecurities get the best of her, and a love triangle quickly took shape between Angela, Brendan M., and Stacy. Then, a late arrival from #BachelorNation single Vay ruffled the feathers of real-life coworker and frenemy, Caitlin, spurring the second triangle of the group, as Vay swooped in on Caitlin's early crush Kamil with the first date card. With six men and eight women currently in the mix, the men hold the power of the rose this week, and the women who don't form a connection risk being sent home at the next rose ceremony.

What would you think if someone told you that you were about to meet your idol? How would you prepare? What would you wear? What would you say? Illeana shares a hilarious and heartwarming story about finding herself in exactly this situation when, one day, she realized she would be meeting Marlon Brando. And Branan shares a story about his own (rather embarrassing) brush with fame.

Illeana Douglas wasn't always a movie star, but her life has always been strangely intertwined with the American cinema. In fact, long before she knew she wanted to act, her life was forever changed when her parents saw the 1969's indie "Easy Rider" and decided it was time to become hippies. Join us as we hear Illeana explain how her conservative, Connecticut childhood was ruined, how her father drove goats around town in a station wagon, and how her life was set on a course of creativity that will leave you astounded, perhaps asking yourself if there really is a design to our lives.

I Blame Dennis Hopper: And Other Stories From A Life Lived In and Out of the Movies (Flatiron Books) From award-winning actress Illeana Douglas comes a memoir about learning to survive in Hollywood while staying true to her quirky vision of the world. In 1969 Illeana Douglas' parents saw the film Easy Rider and were transformed. Taking Dennis Hopper's words, "That's what it's all about man" to heart, they abandoned their comfortable upper middle class life and gave Illeana a childhood filled with hippies, goats, free spirits, and free love. Illeana writes, "Since it was all out of my control, I began to think of my life as a movie, with a Dennis Hopper-like father at the center of it." I Blame Dennis Hopper is a testament to the power of art and the tenacity of passion. It is a rollicking, funny, at times tender exploration of the way movies can change our lives. With crackling humor and a full heart, Douglas describes how a good Liza Minnelli impression helped her land her first gig and how Rudy Valley taught her the meaning of being a show biz trouper. From her first experience being on set with her grandfather and mentor-two-time Academy Award-winning actor Melvyn Douglas-to the moment she was discovered by Martin Scorsese for her blood-curdling scream and cast in her first film, to starring in movies alongside Robert DeNiro, Nicole Kidman, and Ethan Hawke, to becoming an award winning writer, director and producer in her own right, I Blame Dennis Hopper is an irresistible love letter to movies and filmmaking. Writing from the perspective of the ultimate show business fan, Douglas packs each page with hilarious anecdotes, bizarre coincidences, and fateful meetings that seem, well, right out of a plot of a movie. I Blame Dennis Hopper is the story of one woman's experience in show business, but it is also a genuine reminder of why we all love the movies: for the glitz, the glamor, the sweat, passion, humor, and escape they offer us all. Praise for I Blame Dennis Hopper "In this sublime series of essays, Douglas revels in her dual roles as both participant and observer, never losing her awe of the actors and directors she has met along the way. Funny, candid, juicy, gossipy, Douglas insider look at the film industry charms with its pinch me, I m dreaming sweetness while imparting hard-won and valuable lessons about following one s true calling." -Booklist, Starred Review "In other words, she's got seriously good stories to tell in these chatty, heartfelt essays" - Kim Hubbard, "People" Magazine "It's Douglas head-over-heels madness for the movies that illuminates the text like a projector bulb through a filmstrip, from her parents decision to run a hippie commune after being bewitched by Dennis Hopper in Easy Rider, to Douglas own obsession with actors like Lee Marvin and Richard Dreyfuss, to her sometimes delusional confidence that she was born to be a star. Douglas recounts her life and work with a perfect mix of self-deprecation and glowing pride. Reading it feels like listening to the magnetic storyteller herself and it s enough to make you fall in love too. A " - Entertainment Weekly "Humorous, delightful, and wholly entertaining. Douglas delves into all the wonderfully serendipitous tales that got her to the place she as a child always wanted to be, all while charming the hell out of us."- Elle Magazine Illeana Douglas takes you through her years in Hollywood and beyond the same way she experienced them - by happy, hilarious accident. The revelations fly off the pages of this book are cringe-inducing, gut-busting and terrifying, usually all at once."--Patton Oswalt, New York Times bestselling author of ZOMBIE, SPACESHIP, WASTELAND "I've talked to Illeana Douglas about her life. Her family roots are crazy, groovy, harsh and a bit glamorous. I'm thrilled she's wrangled that into prose form. She's quirky, hilarious and deep. I love her. I've always loved her. Haven't we all?"--Marc Maron, Comedian and bestselling author of Attempting Normal "Illeana Douglas is an incredibly talented, smart and funny storyteller. This book is compelling to read from start to finish. She either knows or has worked with so many significant names in film, that in researching, she broke my IMDB."--Bob Saget, actor and author of the New York Times bestselling memoir Dirty Daddy"Illeana has done what no other movie memoir has ever achieved; she takes us on a journey through the personal, the chaotic, the droll, the ecstatic, the hilarious, the surreal and moving life in moving pictures, hers, and ours. As beautiful as it is exhilarating, I Blame Dennis Hopper not only gives us a rich texture of the life of an American girl coming of age in a wild time, but the most perfect look I've ever read of life on the set through a filmmakers eye. Gorgeous."-- Allison Anders, Award-winning director of Grace of My Heart and Gas Food Lodging "I Blame Dennis Hopper is genius. I couldn't put it down. It was like having a great companion. Illeana completely captures the enchantment of film in a charming and hilarious way. More than that, it reminded me of my own passion for movies and of acting. Very, very inspirational." --Jeff Goldblum "I devoured this book as if it were a giant box of popcorn! It isn't easy to put your thoughts, hopes, dreams, and disappointments into words, but Illeana Douglas has done it with equal parts candor and humor. Best of all, she details the special relationship she had with her grandfather, the great Melvyn Douglas-including the time she got to visit him on the set of Being There. I thoroughly enjoyed this disarming memoir."--Leonard Maltin, film critic and bestselling author Illeana Douglas is an actress, writer, director and host of Trailblazing Women on Turner Classic Movies. She’s appeared in classic films like Cape Fear, Grace of My Heart, and Ghost World, and is often described as “quirky” which is odd because the look she is going for is “skanky." Jennifer Tilly was in many films including Bound, Bullets over Broadway, and the extremely dramatic Bella Mafia, that she starred in with Illeana Douglas. These days she plays poker and continues to churn out Chucky movies. Matt Oswalt is a writer and director, he created the hit web series Puddin' starring Eddie Pepitone.  He does punch-up on lots of movies and award shows you've probably seen and is currently writing on Mystery Science Theater 3000.  Annette O’Toole is an actress who has been around forever. She also sings, knits, and sometimes plays the mandolin. Her favorite actor is Michael McKean. That’s pretty much all you need to know.  Ben Mankiewicz is a host of Turner Classic Movies. He moved to LA 75 years after his grandfather Herman Mankiewicz arrived. He cohosts the online film review show What The Flick. Steven Weber is known for playing comedy and drama, he's a national treasure and a good man. Kate Micucci is one half of the comedy duo Garfunkel and Oates.
