【聊了什么The What】 电影颁奖季随着奥斯卡2026的完结落下帷幕，本期疲惫娇娃一年一度又来带着大家来例行盘点奥斯卡。先从争议开始，我们讨论了《K-pop猎魔女团》获奖感言被粗暴掐断引发的亚裔“噤声”事件和流媒体如何让学院派感到“被蚕食”的恐惧。几个娃也重点解析了年度大热《一战再战》与《罪人 Sinners》：艺术家电影人PTA是如何交出一份让大众满意的答卷？Ryan Coogler又是如何用恐怖片外壳包裹美国南方的移民血泪？我们对比了最佳男主提名的甜茶和获奖的Michael B. Jordan的表演（如果好奇我们对于甜茶的看法，请移步隔壁百花newsletter仔细阅读），也讨论了我们喜欢的导演赵婷和贾法·帕纳西。全球秩序分崩离析的当下，好莱坞的美式中心主义叙事在还站得住脚吗？敬请收听本期节目一探究竟。 Welcome to the annual Oscars recap by your neighborhood film and pop culture critics: CyberPink. We start off with controversies: discussing the "silencing" of Asian voices after the acceptance speech for K-Pop Demon Hunters was abruptly cut short, and exploring the ongoing battle between rise of streaming giants and the traditional film industry the Academy represents. We then jump into the heavy hitters: “One Battle After Another” and “Sinners” – how did auteur Paul Thomas Anderson deliver a film that (finally) satisfied the masses? And how did Ryan Coogler use the framework of a horror film to envelop the blood, sweat, and tears of the American South's immigrant experience? We compare the performances of Best Actor nominee Timothée Chalamet and winner Michael B. Jordan (if you're curious about our hot takes on Timmy “Sweet Tea”, please head over to our Baihua Newsletter for the full debrief). We also share our love for directors Chloé Zhao and Jafar Panahi. In an era where the global world order is fracturing, is there still space for an America-centric narrative in Hollywood? Tune in to this episode to find out. 【时间轴 The When】 01:39：从杨紫琼到《K-pop猎魔女团》：亚裔在奥斯卡的“闭麦”困境 08:48：《罪人Sinners》深度解析：原创剧本、吸血鬼隐喻与真实的华裔移民史 21:24：最佳男主讨论：怎样才是最佳表演，我们为什么喜欢日漫宅男Michael B.

Avui dimarts parlem amb Marga Puntada, el premi Aurora d'aquest any 2026. Marga Puntada, qui va ser guardonada amb la Medalla de l'Esport de Girona per la seva trajectòria, acaba de sumar un altre reconeixement. És el premi Aurora del 2026, un guardó que atorga l'associació de dones del mateix nom a una dona o entitat que destaqui pel foment de la igualtat i dels drets de les dones a Lloret de Mar. La lloretenca destaca per la seva tasca fent tallers d’autodefensa per a dones i per la visibilització de l’esport femení. Parlem amb Marga Puntada, i amb la Maite Rodríguez de l'Aurora. A més de repassar els actes del 8M a Lloret de Mar. Altres temes d'interès: Actes 8M: Què vol dir ser dona en la societat actual? Sobre aquesta pregunta, molt vigent i més als voltants del 8 de Març, s'ofereix una xerrada aquest dimarts a Lloret de Mar. Hi participa la divulgadora i escriptora Valentina Berr, amb qui parlem avui. Ensenyament: Expliquem quin servei dona l'aula d'acollida intensiva i coneixem uns quants alumnes que en formen part. Han vingut de visita a la ràdio. Agenda: Avui hi ha una jornada amb els promotors de Catalunya a Lloret, per parlar sobre el mercat de l'habitatge. Demà es presenten les perspectives de Setmana Santa a la destinació davant del sector turístic. I dijous hi ha sessió de cinema amb el cineclub Adler, que projecta UN SIMPLE ACCIDENTE de l'iranià Jafar Panahi. Està nominada als Oscars i ha guanyat la Palma d'Or a Canes.

‘Un simple accidente', de l'iranià Jafar Panahi, és una pel·lícula multipremiada que no deixa ningú indiferent. Es projecta aquest dijous a càrrec del cineclub Adler. El seu president, Joan Moret, explica que és un conte sobre el perdó i la venjança, però també una “rotunda llicó de cinema i compromís moral”. La pel·lícula –guardonada amb la Palma d'Or de Canes, a més dels festivals de Venècia i Berlin, i nominada a l'Oscar a Millor Film Internacional- explica a grans trets que el que comença com un accident sense importància desencadenarà una sèrie de conseqüències cada cop més grans. “És un thriller, però també una comèdia negra, això desconcerta i la fa fascinant”, afegeix Moret. Amb ‘Un simple accidente', Panahi rendeix homenatge al seu poble amb aquest drama sobre el dolor dels represaliats del règim de l'Iran. El passi és aquest dijous (20:30h) al Teatre de Lloret.

Mina Kavani ? C'est une actrice iranienne qui ne peut plus ni jouer ni retourner à Téhéran. C'est depuis Paname en France, à partir d'un plateau de théâtre qu'elle y retourne, et plutôt deux fois qu'une. Bien sûr, les cinéphiles que vous êtes l'ont peut-être appréciée dans « Aucun Ours » de Jafar Panahi ou « Lire Lolita à Téhéran » avec Golshifteh Farahani, mais son ADN se situe réellement entre cour et jardin.   Les femmes étant réduites à un voile noir dans l'esprit des Mollahs, la présence d'une femme, la parole poétique d'une femme, la libre circulation d'une femme sur une scène de théâtre peut s'apparenter un acte politique. Apres Iam deranged, Mina Kavani s'installe au Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord à Paris avec Ma maison est noire, un deuxième seule en scène où elle fait se croiser les mots de la poétesse Forough Farrokhzad à son récit personnel. Spectacle hypnotique, enfermé entre 4 murs, où la Kavani semble jouer pour ne pas mourir, jouer jusqu'à en mourir, jouer pour les milliers de morts en Iran. Ma maison est noire, d'après les textes de Forough Farrokhzad, interprété et mis en scène par Mina Kavani au Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord à Paris jusqu'au 1er mars 2026.  Tournée : - 5 mars 2026 au Cabaret de Curiosités - Le Manège, scène nationale de Maubeuge - 12 mars 2026 à L'Arc - Scène nationale Le Creusot.    Programmation de l'invitée : • Roody Mahi • David Bowie I am deranged  • Viguen & Delkaash Bordi az yadam.

Ep. 383: Oliver Laxe on Sirat Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. In Sirat, director Oliver Laxe tells the story of a father searching for his daughter with his young son's help. But the milieu isn't what one might expect: a desert rave scene in an unidentified country in a world plunged into disarray and war. Premiered in Cannes last year and still in U.S. cinemas, Sirat's visceral, spiritual journey joins together the father (Sergi Lopez) with a motley crew of ravers rumbling into the desert and running into a tragedy that tends to catch audiences off guard. I spoke with Laxe recently about the film, which is nominated for the Academy Award for Best International Feature alongside It Was Just an Accident (directed by Jafar Panahi), The Secret Agent (Kleber Mendonca Filho), Sentimental Value (Joachim Trier), and The Voice of Hind Rajab (Kaouther Ben Hania).

It is International Film Day on "Is This Cinema?" so after an extensive discussion on 'Sentimental Value' last month, we listen in as Jibbz & Ayisha discuss the rest of their favourite international films of 2026 in the lead up to the Oscars. They talk about the motif of corruption in 'The Secret Agent' (15:27) and then touch on why Jibbz picked 'It Was Just An Accident' as his movie of the year (27:13), the real life implications of Park Chan Wook's 'No Other Choice' (52:24) AND SO MUCH MOREYou can support us hereHosts: Ayisha & JibbzProduction by: Ebuka

This week, the boys grabbed some beers and kept it positive while they fired off some mini-reviews before featuring a conversation about “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind”. As part of the random year generator series, 2004 was a great year for movies, with over 50 $100m movies and many likable ones. While “Eternal Sunshine” didn't gross in the top 70, it may be the year's greatest film. Props to Michel Gondry and Charlie Kaufman for giving Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet some juicy roles and incredibly shifty worlds! As for the mini-reviews, the boys can't speak highly enough of Gore Verbinski's “Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die”, starring Sam Rockwell, and the intense and captivating “If I Had Legs I'd Kick You”, and the Academy Award-nominated “It Was Just An Accident”.

The writer-director Jafar Panahi's new film, It Was Just an Accident, is the second Iranian film ever nominated for multiple Oscars. Panahi is in the United States for the awards season, but soon after, he plans to return to Iran, where he may well be arrested.  His co-writer on the film was recently jailed after signing a letter objecting to the deadly crackdown on protests in Iran. Panahi, who also signed the letter, has been sentenced to one year in prison in absentia. His lawyer has said they plan to appeal the sentence. But Panahi doesn't seem afraid. (He made It Was Just an Accident in secret, as he has in the past with other films.) Even with the crackdown in Iran and violence against protesters here in the U.S., he says he still has reason to hope: “I see a greater future. I see from above.” --- Get more from your favorite Atlantic voices when you subscribe.

Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi tackles taboo topics in his work. The 2025 Palm D'Or winner and Academy award nominated IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT fits right in with his filmography as it depicts a mechanic who is reminded of his time in an Iranian prison when he encounters a man he suspects of being his sadistic jailor. Our hosts share their thoughts on the film & then run down all the movie trailers shown during the cultural event that was the 2026 Super Bowl.

This week, Steve, Dana and guest host Sam Adams talk anti-authoritarian art in its many forms. First, they take up It Was Just an Accident, the Cannes Palme d'Or-winning film by Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi. Inspired in part by Panahi's own experience being imprisoned for critiquing the Iranian government, his new film—made in secret from the regime— holds back little in its sharp political critique, rage, and… a surprising amount of comedy.Not surprising in its amount of comedy— but maybe in its frequently anti-authoritarian politics—is Mel Brooks: The 99 Year Old Man! The documentary series about the showbiz legend, produced by Judd Apatow and Michael Bonfiglio, is a loving portrait of the long, unmatched, and revolutionary in its own way, career of Brooks.Inspired by the recent release “Streets of Minneapolis” by Bruce Springsteen, the panel dedicates its final segment to the state of protest music in 2026. Joined by music critic Carl Wilson, of the Slate and Crritic!, they discuss the long tradition and still potent power of singer/songwriters with acoustic guitars—and the many political artists who defy that stereotype. To hear some of the music they talked about, plus several more current protest songs, check out our 2026 Protest Playlist.In our bonus episode for Plus subscribers, the gang eulogizes the divine comic genius of Catherine O'Hara.

Joined by music critic Carl Wilson, of the Slate and Crritic!, they discuss the long tradition and still potent power of singer/songwriters with acoustic guitars—and the many political artists who defy that stereotype. To hear some of the music they talked about, plus several more current protest songs, check out our 2026 Protest Playlist.In our bonus episode for Plus subscribers, the gang eulogizes the divine comic genius of Catherine O'Hara.

Last year, Iranian director Jafar Panahi won the Palme d'Or at Cannes for his extraordinary film It Was Just an Accident, which he shot secretly in Tehran under great risk of serious harm. Jafar has been in prison twice on charges of “anti-government propaganda” and for protesting the imprisonment of other filmmakers. At the Toronto International Film Festival back in September, he joined Tom Power to tell us how It Was Just an Accident was shaped by his two experiences in Tehran's Evin Prison.

Welcome to The Reel Schmooze with ToI film reviewer Jordan Hoffman and host Amanda Borschel-Dan, where we bring you all the entertainment news and film reviews a Jew can use. We update that last week's main movie, "Holding Liat," is now playing in 20 locations throughout North America. Then we hear a "Jangle" about unabashed Zionist Michael Rapaport, who was just in the news for his participation in "The Traitors." The first "Schmoovie" of the week is "It Was Just an Accident" by Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi. Nominated for two Academy Awards, it is playing internationally at major arthouse theaters. The premise is roughly based on Panahi's stints in Iranian prisons for his films exposing the oppressive regime. It includes a ragtag group trying to assess if a kidnapped man is indeed their interrogator/torturer. Though the set-up sounds grim, there is plenty of Panahi's trademark wit to keep you thinking -- and chuckling. The second film discussed is 2015's "Taxi," which was produced during a period in which Panahi was barred from creating films. Smuggled out and screened at the Cannes film festival, the movie takes place in a borrowed taxi and includes an uncredited cast of everyday Iranians -- or are they? Check out the two "not bad" films (our highest mark) in this week's The Reel Schmooze. The Reel Schmooze is produced by Ari Schlacht and can be found wherever you get your podcasts.

Iranian director Jafar Panahi has been making social cinema since the 1990s. His work follows everyday Iranians and their struggles against societal forces. In 2010 the director received a ban on filmmaking from the Iranian government, and in 2022 he was imprisoned after he inquired into a fellow filmmaker's arrest. Despite being jailed and censored, Panahi has continued to work. His films such as "The Circle,” “Taxi” and “No Bears” have won awards from the top film festivals in the world. Now his latest film, “It Was Just an Accident,” has been nominated for two Oscars for best international feature film and best original screenplay. The film follows a group of former Iranian political prisoners who kidnap a man they suspect was their torturer, but they aren't totally sure it's him. Panahi shot the film in secret in Iran because he didn't have official government permission to make it. While it is receiving critical acclaim around the world, it's being repressed in Iran, where the government recently handed Panahi a new prison sentence. Today on “Post Reports” Elahe Izadi speaks with Jafar Panahi about how he made “It Was Just an Accident” and why he is planning to return to Iran once his awards campaign is over. The two spoke this month, before this week's Oscar nominations and the most recent escalation of anti-government demonstrations and crackdowns in Iran. Today's show was produced by Lucas Trevor, Joshua Carroll and Sam Bair, who also mixed it. It was edited by Elana Gordon and Peter Bresnan, with help from Reena Flores.Thanks to Neon for movie clips and photos.Subscribe to The Washington Post here. And watch us on YouTube here.

The Iranian film It Was Just an Accident enters Oscars season with the wind at its back. It won the top prize at Cannes, a raft of other awards and has landed on a lot of top ten lists.

Directed by Jafar Panahi, it's a tense, volatile, often darkly funny movie about what happens when a former political prisoner runs into a man he's almost convinced is the one who tortured him and other prisoners. Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopcultureLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In this episode of Quakers Today, co-hosts Sweet Miche (they/them) and Peterson Toscano (he/him) tackle a question that seems simple but is actually quite complex: What do Quakers believe? We explore the wide theological spectrum of the Religious Society of Friends from those who view the Bible as the inerrant word of God to those who may not believe in God at all. A Smorgasbord of Beliefs We hear from Adam Segal-Isaacson, a Friend from Brooklyn Meeting who was raised both Jewish and Quaker. Adam shares how he navigates his dual identity and offers a powerful metaphor about harmony versus monotony in worship. Watch the full QuakerSpeak video: Do All Quakers Hold the Same Beliefs? An Evangelical Friend Among Liberals Peterson sits down with Jasson Arevalo, an Evangelical Quaker from El Salvador and a student at the Earlham School of Religion. Jasson describes the "Programmed" tradition of his upbringing—complete with pastors and music—and his view of Biblical inerrancy. He shares his experience of studying alongside Liberal, Unprogrammed Friends and how curiosity and respect bridge the theological divide. Read Jasson's article, "You Will Be Told What You Must Do," in the December 2025 issue of Friends Journal or at FriendsJournal.org. Convincement and Belonging What makes someone a Quaker? Is it a membership card or an internal shift? We review the new Pendle Hill pamphlet, Awakening the Witness: Convincement and Belonging in Quaker Community by Matt Rosen. The pamphlet explores the distinction between "convincement", the spiritual experience of becoming a Friend, and formal membership. Learn more at PendleHill.org. Recommendation Peterson recommends the Iranian film It Was Just an Accident, directed by Jafar Panahi. It is a darkly comic and morally complicated story about the long-term effects of trauma and the refusal to become like one's oppressors. Listener Responses We asked you: What do you believe now that you didn't believe before becoming a Friend? Jeremy shares how Quaker history helped him understand the "Great Apostasy" as the moment the church merged with political power. Zoe discusses moving from "religion as harm" to religion as a positive force for community. Creative Decorating reflects on the mind-blowing concept of "that of God in everyone."

One of Iran's most celebrated filmmakers, Jafar Panahi, has spent the last quarter of a century in conflict with the Iranian government, which objects to his films' criticisms of their actions and the wider social conditions in the country, and has both arrested him several times and banned him from making films for twenty years - which hasn't stopped him. His latest, It Was Just an Accident, won the 2025 Palme d'Or, and tells the story of former political prisoners who capture a man they suspect was their torturer. It's a brilliant thriller which, despite the gravity and darkness of its subject matter, is energetic and entertaining. It effortlessly raises both moral and practical questions - What's the right thing to do with their captive? Have they become the torturers? If they let him live, won't he just come after them again? - without entering morality play territory, neither pretending to have the answers nor admonishing its characters for their choices and emotional responses. It's a vivid expression of the lasting effect the actions of the Iranian regime have had on its people, for whom merely the suggestion that they might be able to exact revenge on their torturer causes instant emotional outbursts. We discuss all this and more, including the depiction of a lawless culture in which you're constantly expected to give bribes to get by; the filmmaking, in which no filming permits were provided and Panahi had to once again violate his filmmaking ban; the question of how ambiguous the end might be and what that means; and a comparison with American cinema in Trump's America and the question of what might be happening under ICE, the immigration enforcement agency that's expanded into a neo-paramilitary force over the last year. It Was Just an Accident is a magnificent film. See it. Recorded on 10th December 2025.

Then, they react to the Golden Globe nominations and try to make sense of what they mean for the Academy Awards (1:00:11). Finally, they briefly discuss Jafar Panahi's ‘It Was Just an Accident' (1:20:29) before Sean is joined by Panahi himself to discuss how he casts his actors, why he prioritized balancing a humorous tone and serious drama, and why he feels that his next film has to be about war (1:26:51).

Evan is back! We're happy to have him. First up is Megan's solo turn on HAMNET (2:19), director Chloé Zhao's adaptation of Maggie O'Farrell's novel (with a screenplay by Zhao and O'Farrell), a historical drama about Anne Hathaway and William Shakespeare's marriage following the tragic death of their 11-year-old son. Then Evan, Megan, and Dave talk about Paul Thomas Anderson's ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER (15:16), but Dave is called away mid-conversation by a child in need (one of his, not some rando who wandered in from the hinterlands). Evan and Megan pick up the conversation and then discuss writer-director Jafar Panahi's latest, the nakedly anti-authoritarian thriller IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT (42:09), which won the Palme d'Or at Cannes and is France's submission for Best International Feature Film at the 2026 Academy Awards.

All treats and no tricks for you in this packed Halloween edition of Breakfast All Day. Here's what we've got: NOUVELLE VAGUE: Richard Linklater recreates the making of the French New Wave classic "Breathless" with a movie that looks like it could have come out in 1960, as well. You don't need to know anything about Jean-Luc Godard, or Jean Seberg, or Jean-Paul Belmondo to enjoy this affectionate and humorous homage, but there are Easter eggs galore if you do. In theaters before streaming on Netflix Nov 14. SHELBY OAKS (With William Bibbiani): Our good friend Bibbs joins in on a review of this horror debut from longtime YouTube film critic Chris Stuckmann. It follows a woman investigating the disappearance of her sister, who was a paranormal investigator, in a small Ohio town. In theaters. HEDDA: Tessa Thompson is impossibly charismatic in this bold reimagining of the classic Henrik Ibsen play "Hedda Gabler." Nia DaCosta's adaptation is queer and multiracial in ways that are reminiscent of "Bridgerton." The cinematography and production design are gorgeous, but see it for the clothes alone. Streaming on Prime Video. IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT: This will end up being a major contender in the awards conversation. Iranian master Jafar Panahi tells the story of several disparate people who come together to abduct and confront the man they believe was their torturer in prison. It's tense and beautifully acted, with an unexpected streak of absurd humor. In theaters. MOVIE NEWS LIVE!: Our travels have kept us from doing our movie news livestream for the past couple weeks, so it was nice to be together again. Among the topics we discussed were the upcoming "Stranger Things" finale, "Sinners" and "K-Pop Demon Hunters" back in theaters, Osgood Perkins Day, and Francis Ford Coppola auctioning off his watch collection. We're gone next week but back Nov. 14. Thanks for being here! Subscribe to Christy's Saturday Matinee newsletter: https://christylemire.beehiiv.com/
