Anjelica Huston has lived many lives, all with grace and charisma. As the daughter of John Huston (director of The African Queen, The Maltese Falcon, and more) she was movie royalty from birth. But she grew up in rural Ireland and went to high school in Swinging-Sixties London. That meant she developed a set of values far removed from Hollywood high society. Her first career was as a high-end fashion model, a favorite subject of Richard Avedon and later a muse of Halston. But she had always wanted to be a movie actress, and she spent time in the trenches, working on her craft in classes and smaller roles before her Oscar-winning turn in Prizzi's Honor. Right as she was leaving the photo studio for the movie studio, she met Jack Nicholson: "he made me laugh," she tells Alec. The couple defined Hollywood cool for almost two decades. Huston tells Alec the story of all of her transitions -- romantic, professional, and geographic. Her two wonderful memoirs are A Story Lately Told and Watch Me. Originally aired April 7th, 2020.

Nothing says suburban bliss like little neon flags sprouting up across your lawn like a government-sponsored Easter egg hunt. In today's comedy podcast, Rizz spirals (respectfully) over fiber optic lines being marked directly through his beloved Japanese maple, and we ask the real question: do you get a discount if they destroy your yard… or just emotional damage?Things escalate when we break down the now-viral fistfight between fiber optic contractors in Forestell. That's right — two grown men, in high-vis vests, settling a “you're lazy” dispute with haymakers in the middle of a neighborhood already dealing with torn-up lawns and brown faucet water. Is it professional? No. Is it peak blue-collar conflict resolution? Absolutely. And yes, we debate whether they grabbed beers together after.From there, we pivot (hard) into Mr. Clean announcing his retirement after 68 spotless years. Is he headed to Boca? Fire Island? Is this just a marketing stunt? We investigate like the responsible adults we are.Then it's HBO's “Neighbors” — the show that makes you question humanity and your HOA. We break down the most unhinged characters, including doomsday preppers, beach tyrants, cat hoarders, and a man who casually threatens murder before inviting people to a barbecue. It's everything you love about suburban drama without actually having to move.In Crap on Celebrities, we unpack the wild moment at the BAFTAs involving Tourette's, Michael B. Jordan, and a headline nobody saw coming. We also talk Wiz Khalifa's birthday “tradition,” Snooki's health update, and why Leonardo DiCaprio is slowly morphing into Jack Nicholson in real time.It's lawn drama. It's celebrity chaos. It's suburban anxiety with microphones. This daily comedy show continues to prove that no topic is too small — especially if it involves Kentucky bluegrass and potential property destruction.If you love a loud, unfiltered, slightly unhinged comedy podcast that covers weird news, celebrity fails, neighborhood wars, and the kind of conversations that should probably stay off HOA Facebook pages… welcome home.This comedy podcast proudly serves St. Louis and beyond with daily humor, pop culture commentary, and the occasional emotional breakdown over landscaping.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This is an edited podcast from 2024 where we spoke to the recently departed film producer Fred Roos. A close friend to Luana Anders, our moderator on the flipside, Jennifer had no idea who we were interviewing until midway through the podcast.  Fred had messages for many of his close friends, and in one instance I was able to pass that message along at his funeral. In this podcast, he has a message for Sophia and Francis Coppola, his long time pals, as well as Harrison Ford who's career he started. At his funeral Harrison said "Without Fred I wouldn't be here." Also a number of other people show up, including his pal Harry Dean Stanton (a skeptic and atheists whom Jennifer and I interviewed when he crossed over.) There are appearances by many people Fred knew, including Penny Marshall, Cindy Williams, also Aretha Franklin and Christopher Reeves. We do this podcast to show that anyone can speak to their loved ones offstage. It just so happens that I knew Fred Roos for four decades, and met him in his office at Zoetrope back in the day. We stayed pals over the years, he was always kind and generous with me - and he was a huge pal to Robert Towne and Luana Anders as well as Jack Nicholson. None of these names in this podcast are "name dropping" when we're talking to the source. These were all friends of his, and I have met most of them - including the one he references - the reincarnation of James Dean. Fred worked with this person, and while we don't mention the name - because the person whom Jennifer and I both interviewed for hours - knows that they are the reincarnation of James Dean, have known that their whole lives - but chooses not to share it with people. Like I say, this is another of the Best Of podcasts that we've done. (Jennifer is currently swamped with clients and folks who need her help.) Enjoy.

They dig into Ashby's “fried-out” '70s tone, lived-in performances, stark realism, and why the film's matter-of-fact ending lingers long after the credits roll.Then they move to The Border, an early-'80s studio film that feels both rougher and conflicted with itself. Nicholson's morally compromised border agent drifts through corruption, half-hearted redemption, and a system designed to chew people up. Marty and Clif explore the film's uneven tone, British director perspective, TV-movie aesthetics and the way Nicholson and Harvey Keitel elevate material that never quite comes together.Support the showFind our films here: The Love Song of William H Shaw Revenge of Zoe Writing Fren-ZeeMaking Pondo on FacebookX (formerly Twitter):@MakingPondoInstagramMaking Pondo on Letterboxd:Season One Season Two Season Three Season Four Theme Song "The Rain" by Russ PacePhotos by Geoffrey Notkin

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! —the podcast where we resurrect cinema's most infamous box office disasters and ask the burning question: was it really that bad? We're celebrating five years of cinematic redemption.For the month of January, Not A Bomb asks a very important cinematic question: what happens when actors decide that being in front of the camera just isn't enough and take a shot at directing themselves? In the latest episode of Not A Bomb, Troy and Brad crack open one of Hollywood's strangest sequels — The Two Jakes. Arriving sixteen years after Chinatown, this long‑delayed follow‑up limped into theaters weighed down by production troubles, an unfinished script, and the impossible shadow of one of the greatest neo‑noirs ever made.Jack Nicholson pulls double duty this time, stepping behind the camera while reprising his role as private eye J.J. “Jake” Gittes. But despite the star power and the legacy attached, the film barely made a dent upon release, leaving audiences and critics wondering whether this sequel ever had a fighting chance.Does The Two Jakes earn its place as a continuation of a classic, or is it proof that some stories are better left alone? Troy and Brad dig into the mystery.The Two Jakes is directed by Jack Nicholson and stars Jack Nicolson, Harvey Keitel, Madeleine Stowe, Eli Wallach, Ruben Blades, Frederic Forrest, David Keith, and Richard FarnsworthWant to help support the show?

RSS/iTunes/Spotify We’re going GUESTLESS and UNTETHERED on this episode of YOU DON’T KNOW DICK, and what a long, strange trip it is! We’re checking out the Roger Corman-directed 1967 film THE TRIP starring Peter Fonda, Bruce Dern and Dennis Hopper – and written by Jack Nicholson – and it’s full of surreal visuals, mind-expanding dialogue and hippy nonsense! Roger Corman went on an LSD trip as prep for the film, and he imbues it with plenty of independent energy (helped by Fonda and Hopper filming guerilla style on the streets of LA), but is it consciousness expanding weirdness or boring nonsense? Let’s find out!The post Episode 309 – You Don't Know Dick – The Trip (1967) first appeared on Cinema Smorgasbord.

“You can't handle the truth.” Join Ian & Liam for our 313th episode as we step into the pressurised courtroom, moral brinkmanship, and razor-sharp dialogue of Rob Reiner's A Few Good Men (1992). Button up the dress whites, take your seats, and prepare for a film obsessed with duty, power, and the stories institutions tell themselves to survive. This week we discuss: Aaron Sorkin's dialogue as a weapon — rhythm, repetition, and confrontation. Is this peak Sorkin, or the moment his style becomes unmistakably dominant? Tom Cruise as Lt. Kaffee — charming, evasive, underestimated. Is this Cruise's most interesting performance precisely because he starts behind the power curve? Jack Nicholson's Colonel Jessup — operatic, terrifying, magnetic. Does the film become his the moment he enters it? The courtroom structure — how the film drip-feeds information, builds pressure, and engineers one of the most famous climaxes in cinema history. The ethics at the heart of the story — where does responsibility lie: with the men who carried out orders, or the system that created them? Ian talks about criticisms of the ending and if they're reading the film correctly  We explores how masculinity functions in the film — honour, obedience, pride, and camaraderie The supporting cast — Demi Moore's steely professionalism, Kevin Bacon's moral slipperiness, and who almost got Kevin Pollak's role That scene — inevitability versus surprise. Does the famous monologue work because it's shocking, or because it feels unavoidable? The ending — justice served, or merely order restored? What actually changes once the truth is out? And finally, whether A Few Good Men is the Best Film Ever — or simply one of the most watchable, endlessly quotable courtroom dramas ever made.

In this show, we are extending our ongoing Mike Nichols Marathon as our journey through his filmography takes us deeper into the 1990's where we finally take on the 1994 Wolf. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about this movie's positioning among other classical horror archetypes explored by other filmmakers (such as Dracula directed by Francis Ford Coppola, Kenneth Branagh's Frankenstein, or Martin Scorsese's Cape Fear), whether this big budget production could be considered a comeback for the aging Nichols and how it reunited him with Elaine May. We also discuss the many readings one could apply to this film, ranging from commenting on the AIDS epidemic and corporate politics to discussions about masculinity and the director's own life trajectory, and we also explore the friction between the film's ambition and its own ability to deliver on character and theme development. Finally, we chuckle at Jack Nicholson's sharpened senses and find out that Jakub might not be able to pronounce the title of the movie correctly at all.

On episode 133 of the Director Watch Podcast, co-hosts Ryan McQuade and Jay Ledbetter are joined by Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello discuss the next film in their Warren Beatty series, Reds (1981). Welcome back to Director Watch! On this AwardsWatch podcast, the boys attempt to breakdown, analyze, and ultimately, get inside the mind of some of cinema's greatest auteurs. In doing so, they will look at their filmographies, explore what drives them artistically and what makes their decision-making process so fascinating. Add in a few silly tangents and a fun game at the end of the episode and you've got yourself a podcast we truly hope you love. After a successful directorial debut, Beatty pushed all of his chips into the middle of the table to make the passion project he wanted to make for the entire 1970s. In making Reds, he told the story of the life and career of John Reed, the journalist and writer who chronicled the October Revolution in Russia, and creative and passionate relationship with activist Louise Bryant. By making this epic, he showcased a sense of command of the camera in the midst of rewrites and on set fights with his leading lady and girlfriend of the time, the late Diane Keaton. With this, he created his masterpiece, resulting in an Oscar for Best Director and cementing his case for auteur status. Ryan, Jay, and Sophia break down their thoughts on the film, if Beatty is good in this film, if this is Keaton's best performance, the legend that is Jack Nicholson, the rewrites by Elaine May, and which steamy quote about Beatty's love life will Jay read before talking about one of the defining epics of the 1980s. You can listen to the Director Watch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music and more. This podcast runs 2h57m. The guys will be back next week to continue their series on the films of Warren Beatty with a review of his next film, Dick Tracy. You can rent it via iTunes and Amazon Prime rental in preparation for the next episode of Director Watch. Till then, let's get into it.

Matt and Laci go through the The Shining, probably the best English-language horror movie ever made. Is it the story of a man's battle with alcoholism, a complicated metaphor for the American ruling class's many sins, or is it just a simple haunted house story? What if I told you… yes? The Shining started life as Stephen King's third novel. It was a very personal novel for King, inspired by his own life and his struggles with alcoholism and fatherhood. It's understandable that he wouldn't like Kubrick not centering those issues in his film, but Kubrick saw something completely different in The Shining. The podcast tracks the history of their very public disagreement and King's criticisms of the film. The Shining's production was shrouded in secrecy and mystery. The cast and crew filmed in England for more than a year, and while Shelley Duvall was open in the press about the difficulty of the assignment, she never thought Kubrick treated her unfairly or unprofessionally, and she always pushed back whenever anyone said Kubrick mistreated her during production of the movie.   Time stamps: 00:02:43 — History segment: Stephen King's early career; early disagreements between Stanley Kubrick and King; Kubrick's career overview; Kubrick and co-writer Diane Johnson adapt the novel; casting Jack Nicholson, Danny Lloyd, and Scatman Crothers; Shelley Duvall's career overview 00:58:30 — Movie discussion 02:11:30 — Final thoughts & star ratings   Sources: The Stephen King Companion: Four Decades of Fear from the Master of Horror by George Beahm (2024) - https://amzn.to/4qvoNMO  A Night at the Movies: The Horrors of Stephen King - TCM documentary (2011) - https://bit.ly/4oXM9tf "Kubrick Films 'The Shining' In Secrecy in English Studio" by Aljean Harmetz | The New York Times (1978) - https://nyti.ms/47TYJUl Kubrick: The Definitive Edition by Michel Ciment | https://amzn.to/4nAScmh  "How Stanley Kubrick protected child actor Danny Lloyd while creating 'The Shining'" by Swapnil Dhruv Bose | Far Out (2020) - https://bit.ly/4opNtEY  "'No arc at all': The reason why Stephen King hated Stanley Kubrick film 'The Shining'" by Swapnil Dhruv Bose | Far Out (2024) - https://bit.ly/47bb3hol  "Searching for Shelley Duvall: The Reclusive Icon on Fleeing Hollywood and the Scars of Making 'The Shining'" by Seth Abramovitch | The Hollywood Reporter (2021) - https://bit.ly/3Lkni3Y  Interview with Shelley Duvall by Roger Ebert | RogerEbert.com (2012) - https://bit.ly/44eI0sT "No, Shelley Duvall was not traumatized by Stanley Kubrick on The Shining – she embraced it" by Tom Murray (2024) - https://bit.ly/3LbNvSq    Artwork by Laci Roth.    Music by Rural Route Nine.

Hour 1: Bob's Movie Club Presents: Love Actually - An absolute Christmas classic. Even with 2025 goggles, this movie is charming and full of love. Are kids still Christmas shopping for their parents at school? For many of us this was our first experience shopping alone. Today is THE DAY to break-up with someone. Why spend money on a Christmas present when you know it's over. On the flip side, it's crazy that some people are just coasting through their relationships without even considering where it's going. Hour 2: Andy Dick from ‘NewsRadio' has suffered an apparent overdose after years of publicly battling with addiction. Conan O'Brien is sharing how he's dealing with grief, and it's making everyone laugh. Don't worry, your pajamas are safe. Ben Franklin was a man of many interests. A young boy cleared the snow away from a fire hydrant saving lives the very next day. GameStop is trying a new, bizarre promotional program. Hour 3: Hilary Swank is apologizing – and she needs to. Jack Nicholson, the early 80s, and the longest story ever told. Technical difficulties spark a conversation about Sarah and Bob's plans for the zombie apocalypse. Vinnie's telling us about a Grinch themed meal. The best part of having a dog. In-N-Out Burger is standing up against the 6/7 trend. Plus, some overwhelming feelings of concern. Hour 4: Watch us on YouTube!!!! Sharon reveals Ozzy Osbourne's last words. Billie Eilish has a 3D concert film on the way, and James Cameron directed it! Justin Bieber is also going 3D… 3D printed sneakers, that is. Is Airbnb losing steam? More Americans are choosing hotels. The latest beauty trend is “dry brushing” before you get in the shower. A truly heartwarming message from a long time listener, and a chaotic game of Dead or Alive!

James L. Brooks (Ella McCay, The Simpsons, Taxi) is an Emmy, Golden Globe, and Academy Award-winning screenwriter, director, and producer. James joins the Armchair Expert to discuss being an industrious high school reporter interviewing Louis Armstrong and Anne Bancroft, his lucky break as a studio page bringing Edward R. Murrow coffee, and co-creating the Mary Tyler Moore Show with Alan Burns. James and Dax talk about why there's no better job in the world than on a television show that's working, seeing Andy Kaufman perform as the vile Tony Clifton for the first time, and that he thinks you go legally insane when directing. James explains what it was like giving notes to Jack Nicholson, starting The Simpsons which is still the longest-running scripted show in history, and what makes a contemporary female heroine in his new screwball comedy Ella McCay.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.
