The beginning of any month now seems like a light week for physical media, so Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski only have a few titles to talk about. They include the magnificent starpower of Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn in a comically Hitchcockian caper. Jack Nicholson does much more than order in a diner. There's an early LBGTQ film from William Friedkin and the financially successful but creatively bankrupt attempt at a live-action cartoon. Plus a new extensive documentary on John Carpenter's 1982 horror masterpiece tells you everything you wanted to know and then some.1:47 - Criterion (Charade (4K), Five Easy Pieces (4K))24:00 -- Cinematographe (The Boys in the Band 4K)33:16 - CreatorVC (The Thing Expanded)48:51 - Shout (The Flintstones (4K))1:04:55 - New TV on Blu-ray (Covert Affairs: The Complete Series, Doctor Who (2025): Season Two, The Creep Tapes (Season Two))1:09:14 - New Theatrical Titles on Blu-ray (Hoppers (4K), Protector)1:10:28 - New Blu-ray AnnouncementsCLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCAST OR BUY FROM MOVIEZYNGBe sure to check outErik's Weekly Box Office Column – At Rotten TomatoesCritics' Classics Series – At Elk Grove Cinema in Elk Grove Village, ILChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik's Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.

Over Zoom, Lawrence Zarian interviews Ellen Burstyn ahead of their in-person meeting on The Kelly Clarkson Show, reflecting on divine timing and how his pandemic-born podcast explores how entertainers see the world differently. Burstyn discusses promoting her poetry book and her discomfort with “commercializing” something sacred, emphasizing her goal of introducing poetry to people who don't know it; Zarian shares how the book gave him language for grief, citing Maya Angelou and Rumi, and Burstyn recites Edna St. Vincent Millay's “Love is not all.” Burstyn recalls a childhood split between being popular at school and hiding at home due to an abusive stepfather, and how poetry helped her envision a future. They discuss forgiveness, therapy, sobriety, and generational trauma, then touch on colleagues and projects including Cloris Leachman, Jack Nicholson, Alan Alda, Linda Blair, and roles like Lois in The Last Picture Show, ending with Burstyn completing “I, Ellen Burstyn, am beautiful because…” with a memory of her mother.Timestamp Menu:01:51 Universe and Timing03:04 Mirror Question03:54 Poetry Book Doubts09:01 Poetry Awakening09:53 Two Lives Growing Up15:42 Forgiving Mom17:40 Trauma and Sobriety24:47 Poems for Grief29:33 Favorite Poem Recital32:07 Poetry as Healing33:21 Central Park Cherry Blossoms35:32 Fashion and Self Love37:39 Rapid Fire Film Memories42:43 Internet Myths and Truth44:24 Alan Alda and Friendship48:07 Women and Equal Partnership52:13 Revisiting Past Characters54:03 Longing Poem and Farewell55:55 I Am Beautiful Because

Oscar-nominated actor June Squibb joins Steve Kmetko on Still Here Hollywood for a funny, honest, and deeply inspiring conversation about longevity, craft, and what it really means to keep working at the highest level in your 90s. June looks back on her early days in theater, including working with the legendary Ethel Merman in Gypsy, learning Broadway discipline, and why she always knew, even as a child, that acting was not just something she wanted to do, it was who she was. She also talks about Law & Order, Nebraska, Thelma, Marjorie Prime, Yellowjackets, and what it feels like to still be headlining films when most people have long stepped away from the spotlight. The conversation also explores aging in Hollywood, how Scarlett Johansson directed her in Eleanor the Great, what made Jack Nicholson such a generous scene partner, why realism matters so much in her work, and how Nebraska changed the way the industry saw her. June also shares her thoughts on inspiration, criticism, ambition, and the simple wisdom she would send back to her 35-year-old self.

Welcome to the Video Store Podcast.The 1990s were a golden age for legal dramas and comedies.we're stepping into the courtroom with four unforgettable films that deliver everything from shocking twists to laugh-out-loud moments. Whether you're here for high-stakes drama or sharp-witted comedy, consider this your jury duty… and trust me, you won't want to skip out on this one. Primal Fear (1996)Primal Fear is the kind of legal thriller that pulls you in immediately and refuses to let go. Richard Gere stars as Martin Vail, a slick Chicago defense attorney who thrives on high‑profile cases and the media attention. When an altar boy is accused of murdering a beloved archbishop, Vail jumps in only to find himself tangled in a case far more complex than he ever expected. The real revelation is Edward Norton in his breakout role as Aaron, the timid young defendant at the center of the storm. Norton brings a layered, unsettling vulnerability to the character. Gere, leans into the arrogance and charm that make Vail both magnetic and infuriating. Primal Fear endure is one of the decade's most satisfying legal thrillers, and a reminder of how thrilling a courtroom can be when the truth is anything but clear.A Time to Kill (1996)John Grisham adaptations were everywhere in the 90s, but A Time to Kill stands out as it questions justice, morality, and race in the South. Set in Mississippi, the story follows small‑town lawyer Jake Brigance as he defends Carl Lee Hailey, a man whose actions, while undeniably violent, raise difficult questions about justice and retribution. The case ignites racial tensions, draws the attention of the Ku Klux Klan, and pushes Jake into a fight that threatens his career, his safety, and his family.The cast is stacked: Matthew McConaughey in his first major leading role, Samuel L. Jackson delivering one of his best performances, and supporting roles from Sandra Bullock, Donald and Kiefer Sutherland, Kevin Spacey, and more. A Time to Kill doesn't shy away from uncomfortable truths, instead forcing both the characters and the audience to wrestle with them. The courtroom scenes are gripping, culminating in one of the most memorable closing arguments of the decade.My Cousin Vinny (1992)When two New York college students are mistakenly arrested for murder in rural Alabama, they call in the only lawyer they know: Vinny Gambini, a loud‑mouthed, inexperienced personal‑injury attorney from Brooklyn. Joe Pesci is perfect as Vinny, blending New York swagger, frustration, and surprising competence as he fumbles his way through Southern etiquette and courtroom procedure. But it's Marisa Tomei who steals the show as Vinny's Fiancée Mona Lisa. My Cousin Vinny is a perfect blend of comedy and courtroom drama. Behind the laughs is a a smart, well‑constructed legal story. It's a comedy that still holds up today because the writing is strong, the characters are unforgettable, and the laughs come naturally. It's a true 90s classic.A Few Good Men (1992)“You can't handle the truth!” A Few Good Men is a military courtroom drama focusing on the trial of two Marines accused in a death that may be tied to orders from higher up the chain of command. What starts as a seemingly straightforward defense case evolves into a gripping examination of authority, duty, and moral responsibility. The cast is packed with top Hollywood stars: Tom Cruise, Demi Moore, Kevin Bacon, Kiefer Sutherland, Kevin Pollak, and of course Jack Nicholson as the formidable Colonel Jessup. It's a masterclass in building tension, culminating in some of the most iconic courtroom moments ever put on screen. Decades later, it remains one of the genre's defining films, and a must‑watch for anyone who loves a good legal showdown.Closing ArgumentsFrom twist‑filled thrillers to laugh‑out‑loud courtroom chaos, these four films show just how powerful courtroom movies can be. The 90s didn't just deliver great legal dramas, they gave us some of the most rewatchable, quote-worthy, and thought-provoking films of the era. The jury may still be out on which one is the best, but all four are absolutely guilty of being endlessly rewatchable.Until next time — be kind, rewind.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Few horror novels have embedded themselves in the public imagination quite like Stephen King's The Shining. A bestseller upon release and still one of King's most recognizable works, it was only a matter of time before Hollywood came calling. What no one expected, however, was that the notoriously meticulous Stanley Kubrick would take the reins—and bring Jack Nicholson along for the ride. The result is a film that has since carved out its place in cinema history as one of the genre's towering achievements.IMDB distills the premise succinctly: “A family heads to an isolated hotel for the winter, where a sinister presence influences the father into violence. At the same time, his psychic son sees horrifying forebodings from both the past and the future.” It's a simple setup, but Kubrick's execution transformed it into a labyrinth of dread, symbolism, and psychological unraveling that continues to inspire analysis decades later.That enduring fascination was on full display recently when The Shining was pitted against fourteen other contenders in a listener poll on the Dark Discussions Podcast Facebook group. The film emerged victorious, earning the spotlight for the show's milestone 700th episode. In celebration, the hosts revisit Kubrick's icy masterpiece—its legacy, its mysteries, and its place not just in horror, but in the broader canon of American filmmaking.
Sean and Lexi dedicate the episode to Lexi's late dog Rafa and start a werewolf-movie run, focusing their main discussion on Wolf (1994) after also recording coverage of Bad Moon for Patreon. They highlight Wolf's key creatives and cast (including director Mike Nichols and stars Jack Nicholson, Michelle Pfeiffer, and James Spader) and recap the central setup: Nicholson's publishing executive is bitten after hitting a wolf, begins changing, and faces escalating personal and workplace turmoil involving Spader's character and Nicholson's wife. The conversation touches on major story turns, the werewolf transformation elements, and the film's climax and ending.00:00 Patreon Split Update00:52 Vampire Movie Rant03:17 Live Panel Announcement04:20 Show Intro Banter05:27 Rafiki Tribute07:06 Why Werewolf Movies09:51 Nineties Horror Talk12:45 Wolf Discovery Story20:37 Mike Nichols Deep Dive26:55 Rafiki Casting Bit29:59 Cast and Twin Towers Bit32:09 Plot Setup Begins35:37 Wolf Bite Incident37:17 Office Betrayal Drama41:50 Wolfman Awakens42:32 Gallop to Stewarts45:06 Affair Sparks Revenge45:24 Meet Michelle Pfeiffer47:59 PBJ Date and Milk53:12 Amulet and Pagan Expert55:50 Take Back the Company57:52 Piss and Power Move01:02:22 Hotel Handcuffs Hookup01:06:03 Wife Murder Fallout01:09:14 Spader Turns Werewolf01:12:07 Barn Showdown Finale01:14:50 She Wolf Ending01:16:42 Why Wolf Rules01:19:32 Patreon Plugs and Wrap

Inviting bands like The Avett Brothers, The Black Keys, Bruce Hornsby, Method Man and Redman and so many others to their moe.down festival. And this year they're firing moe.down back up. Before moe. starts off on their Born to Fly tour (they'll be in Ponte Vedra on 3/26) their lead singer Rob Derhak was nice enough to stop by the show! Rob and Doc talked about Rob's Boston fandom, the NBA playoffs, starting the band, getting lumped into the "jam band" scene, playing '99 Woodstock, performing with his daughter, doing moe.down, playing with Goose and so much more. Meanwhile on the rest of the show Doc has assembled the perfect cattle drive posse for 1986. The cattle drive posse includes Stanley Tucci, Cowboy Kent Rollins, Jack Nicholson, Bill Murray and Dick Van Dyke. It doesn't make much sense in this description...but trust us, it doesn't make sense in the show either.

The Film Junk Podcast is a goddamn miracle of modern science and this week we're taking a look at another (indisputable?) all-time classic. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest has won its fair share of awards over the years but it's time for a modern diagnosis. Is Nurse Ratched one of the most chilling villains ever put on screen or does she actually seem kinda reasonable? Is this a career-best performance for Jack Nicholson? How do we feel about the portrayal of mental illness in the movie? It makes us feel very... peculiar. We're talking about form, content, interrelationships and so much more on this week's podcast.
We bring on a special bean this episode, writer and comedian Soren Bowie. You might know him from After Hours, or American Dad, or Quick Question, or “hunk” in the dictionary. We're covering the 1975 classic motion picture about releasing a Jack Nicholson upon a group of people, like you'd do with a wolf. Not to be confused with the 1994 classic motion picture about releasing a Jack Nicholson upon a group of people, like you'd do with a wolf.

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 week on Your Mom's House, Christina P is riding solo while Tom Segura is away shooting Bad Thoughts, and she's joined by comedian/Impractical Joker Sal Vulcano for a unscheduled ride into the world of Architecture Digest. Things spiral immediately as Christina introduces Sal to Kevin Leonardo, a self-proclaimed “educational” creator who demonstrates ass shaving, douching, and butt-hole hygiene in full HD. Sal, who has a famously weak constitution and a severe fear of vomiting, is absolutely not prepared for what he sees, but you probably are. From there, Christina and Sal debate wild internet conspiracies involving satanic rituals, celebrity baby-eating rumors, and adrenochrome hysteria, questioning how anyone could possibly keep secrets at that level of fame. They next break down a viral food challenge. where a man with obviously fake teeth eats an obviously roasted potato every single day. The chaos continues with Sal recounting his nightmare experience in a self-driving Waymo car, the duo dissecting unhinged “alpha male” Uber-fight roleplay videos, and a brutally honest roast of shirtless celebrity vacation photos, featuring Jack Nicholson living his absolute best life. Plus some TikToks, cool guys, and Grammy fashion, all in this weeks episode for you to chew on.
