Als wir in der letzten Folge über die Western-Komödie “Auch ein Sheriff braucht mal Hilfe” redeten, erinnerte sich an Frank einen Film aus seiner Kindheit, in dem James Garner nicht in einer seiner üblichen leichte-Komödien-Rollen glänzte, ein Western, der ungleich härter war, und der ihm durch heftige Folter-Szenen und tolle Filmmusik seitdem in Erinnerung geblieben ist: “Duell in Diablo” von 1966, in der Garner einen Scout auf der Suche nach dem Mörder seiner Frau spielte, der einen Kavallerie-Zug begleitet, der in der Wüste von Apachen überfallen und in einem blutigen Massaker aufgerieben wird.
Judging me, life beats you up, apartment adventures, some cardinal rules of living in Los Angeles, pillow talk, the life and death of George Foreman, the troubled Tommy Morrison, nicotine you bastard, alcohol you bastard, fucking up Joseph Wambaugh's name (sorry Joseph), the grizzled James Garner, the sad tale of Margot Kidder, and the plot thickens. Stuff mentioned: Judgment at Nuremberg (1961), Pavement Slanted and Enchanted (1992), Billy Joel "I Go to Extremes" (1989), George Foreman vs. Michael Moorer (November 4, 1994), George Foreman vs. Tommy Morrison (June 7, 1993), Rocky V (1990), Airplane (1980), Joseph Wambaugh The Glitter Dome (1981), The Glitter Dome (1984), The Rockford Files (1974-1980), Superman: The Movie (1978), Twilight (1998), and The Beef Industry Council and Beef Board "I Eat the Evidence" (1988 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NZqx2T4zlk).

There were no movies starring the late Gene Hackman that were released in the US in 1999, but two of his films released in the US in 1998 – Tony Scott's Enemy of the State and Robert Benton's Twilight – were released in Europe in 1999. So because plenty has been said about the former, we are taking a look today at the latter. Directed by Kramer and Kramer writer and director Robert Benton and written by Benton and novelist Richard Russo, who also teamed up with star Paul Newman on 1994's adaptation of Russo's Nobody's Fool, Twilight stars Newman with a supporting cast of Gene Hackman, Susan Sarandon, James Garner, Stockard Channing, Reese Witherspoon, Margo Martindale, John Spencer, Live Shrieber, the dying body of M. Emmet Walsh, and Giancarlo Esposito. Twilight was a box office failure and was met with a lukewarm reception by critics, but it is a very good case study in the question as to whether or not some actors - like Hackman - could be good in absolutely anything.

RJ Stewart is an author and television writer who has worked in Hollywood for 22 years, working on Xena: Warrior Princess. He has been lauded by stars like Lucy Lawless for his writing Xena as a flawed person who struggled, but always made the right choices. RJ has also collaborated with Kevin Costner, James Garner, Charlie Sheen and Pierce Brosnan. He is promoting his new book, Crazy Hawk, set 100 years into the future. “After two decades writing in Hollywood, I took two decades off,” says Stewart. “But even as the world has changed over time, the qualities and virtues that inspire us, particularly resiliency, have not changed and I think my novel reflects that spirit.” Crazy Hawk is about a resilient and fierce woman, Deirdre, seeking to save her kidnapped sister while seeking revenge amidst a global landscape in ruin. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
R.J. Stewart spent more than 20 years as a writer and producer in Hollywood. He got his first break writing for the NBC romantic-detective drama, Remington Steele that starred Pierce Brosnan and Stephanie Zimbalist. He's best known for developing, writing and producing Xena: Warrior Princess (starring Lucy Lawless), once the highest-rated television show in syndication. Among his other Hollywood credits are movies like The Rundown, starring Duane “The Rock” Johnson, Major League 2, starring Charlie Sheen, and the TV series Cleopatra 2525. He's also worked on projects with Kevin Costner, Rebecca De Mornay and James Garner.Recently, R.J. published the terrific post-apocalyptic thriller, Crazy Hawk, which I've read and can tell you is a fantastically action-packed dystopian western set in an inhospitable American future. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Crazy Hawk, and highly recommend it to you. For more information, please see www.hovartus.com
We'll be back with a brand new edition of TV Confidential later this week.

Programar los Retro Tuesdays de Caribbean Cinemas fue uno de mis mayores placeres del 2024, por lo que me llena de muchísima emoción poder anunciarles que el proyecto de cine de repertorio continúa y se expande en el 2025, con más películas, más cines y más clásicos proyectados en la pantalla grande. La cartelera arranca el próximo 14 de enero con la presentación de la obra maestra de Stanley Kubrick, 2001: A Space Odyssey. Estrenado en 1968, el filme fue producto de una estrecha colaboración entre el renombrado cineasta, el autor de ciencia ficción, Arthur C. Clarke, y el visionario Douglas Trumbull, cuyos revolucionarios efectos especiales cambiaron para siempre el séptimo arte. Esta proyección marcará la primera vez que hacemos una exhibición en una sala CXC, con la mejor imagen y sonido posible, para ofrecerles una experiencia verdaderamente inolvidable. Dos semanas después, el 28 de enero, conmemoramos el 35 aniversario de uno de los principales largometrajes de la década del 1990: Goodfellas, de Martin Scorsese, un nombre que prácticamente es sinónimo del arte cinematográfico. Con las actuaciones estelares de Ray Liotta, Robert De Niro y Joe Pesci, las película se inspira en la verdadera historia de Henry Hill, un hombre de ascendencia irlandesa que se involucró con la mafia italiana y terminó colaborando con las autoridades federales. Luego, en febrero, celebramos el “mes del amor” con dos películas para los enamorados. El martes 11 se proyectará The Notebook, el fan favorite del 2004, que conquistó los corazones del público a través del tumultuoso romance protagonizado por Ryan Gosling, Rachel McAdams, James Garner y Gena Rowlands. Y más adelante, el 25 de febrero, la pantalla grande brillará con dos de los rostros más icónicos del cine, cuando Humphrey Bogart e Ingrid Bergman nos cautiven con sus inolvidables actuaciones en el clásico de 1942, Casablanca. Los Retro Tuesdays regresan nuevamente a las salas Plaza Las Américas, los martes a las 7:00 p.m., y este ciclo se expandirá a los teatros de Plaza del Caribe, Arecibo y Western Plaza, para el disfrute de los cinéfilos de otras áreas de la Isla. Tal y como hicimos en las pasadas seis ediciones, las funciones de Plazas Las Américas -en las que estaré sirviendo de coanfitrión junto a Marcial Feliciano, de Caribbean Cinemas- serán proseguidas por un juego interactivo de Movie Trivia, para poner a prueba el conocimiento del público sobre los filmes que acaban de ver, y habrá premios para los primeros tres lugares. Los boletos ya están a la venta en www.caribbeancinemas.com. Y esto es solo el comienzo. Tenemos reestrenos MUY nítidos planificados para el 2025, así que separen desde ya los martes en la noche para que no se pierdan ninguno. Nos vemos en el cine. This is a public episode.

EPISODE 66 - “WHEN CLASSIC FILM'S SUPPORTING ACTORS STEAL THE SHOW” - 12/16/2024 There is nothing quite like watching a film when suddenly a supporting character comes in and walks away with the film.

This week we are focusing on some of our favorite supporting charters who come in and snatch that scene right about from under the big stars.

It's our third Christmas special, and once again we turn to the small screen for Christmas with Hallmark Hallo of Fame's One Special Night. Airing Sunday, November 28th, 1999 on CBS, One Special Night stars James Garner and Julie Andrews, alongside Patricia Charbonneau, Stewart Bick ,Stacy Grant, and Danniel Magder. Written by the highly prolific Christmas TV movie scribe Nancey Silvers and directed by accomplished TV director and Emmy winner Roger Young, One Special Night was generally praised by critics and probably beloved by our nation's grandparents at the time. It was then, however, entirely forgotten until John accidentally stumbled upon it on the internet a couple weeks ago! So Julia and John invited film critic Audrey Fox, who recently wrote about the 25 best Hallmark Christmas movies ever, to chime in with her expert opinion! Audrey is on Twitter @theaudreyfox and Bluesky @audreyfox
It's Australian Open week, we're back at Kingston Heath and today we chat with Hollywood royalty, the brilliant actor Michael Peña. This is a real treat.We start with the obvious - finding out why is he in Melbourne. As well as being an extraordinary actor, Michael is a massive golf fan, if you're at the Open this weekend at Kingston Heath, keep an eye out, he'll be there. He plays off a handicap of between 3 and 4, and tells Nick and Mark what his view of the sand belt courses is, and what it has been like playing golf in Melbourne.Michael explains how he got into golf, spoiler alert, it has to do with Jack Lemmon and James Garner, and he tells us about playing golf with his co-star in the movie 'Shooter' Mark Wahlberg in Vancouver.Mark wants to know whether there are similarities between how you execute acting roles and how you improve your golf game - Michael explains why he says there are, and how he goes about both improving his golf game, and preparing for an acting role.Michael has been in a some huge movies and TV shows, including Ant-Man which he tells us that after signing on he tried to get out of, and obviously ended up doing it. He tells us the story of why and what happened. He also explains how, when they were shooting the movie Fury, he and Shia LaBeouf felt when Brad Pitt walked in that they were now bit players and the movie was his. Nick likens it to how golfers felt when Tiger would play a tournament often.Nick wants to know who the best golfer, of the Hollywood actors, is. Michael names one and , slightly awkwardly, Nick knows exactly who this actor is immediately....possibly revealing a bit about his viewing habits. Mark asks Michael about how he masters accents, and he tells a very funny story involving a Nokia phone and an ex-girlfriend!Nick explains what he likes about Michael's golf game, and why he admires his ability on the course. And we wrap with some advice that Michaels late mother gave him about how to choose acting roles, which applies to each of us whatever we do.A great fun bonus pod with one of Hollywood's genuine nice guys, and a brilliant actor.We're here each week with the great support of PING, see your local golf shop or professional for a PING club fitting.

Well friends, here we are. Nathan and Eppy take a day trip with Jim to Parma, CA in the series finale episode. The sixth season of The Rockford Files was cut short by James Garner's medical needs, so this last episode was not intended to be a goodbye to the series.

EPISODE 61 - “FAVORITE CLASSIC FILMS OF THE 1960s” - 11/11/2024 The decade of the 1960s was an exciting time in filmmaking. The stodgy studio contract system was starting to give way to a new crop of independent cinematic auteurs, often associated with the "New Hollywood" era, include: Stanley Kubrick, Robert Altman, Sam Peckinpah, Arthur Penn, John Cassavetes, Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, and Peter Bogdanovich. These films were edgier and pushed the creative boundaries and social themes to reflect the changing times. In this episode, Steve and Nan discuss some of their favorite films of the decade and why they had such an impact!

Nathan and Eppy start from the beginning with S1E1 The Kirkoff Case. Jim's client is a real slimeball who's been arraigned, but not prosecuted, for murdering his own parents. The money is too good for Jim to drop the case, and then it gets personal when he takes a beating from not a "goon", but a "labor organizer". This series premiere episode shows us that this PI gets beat up a lot, but he doesn't quit - and he's going to be a hell of a lot of fun to watch. Add in a noir-inflected plot and great casting, we're confident in saying that if you wanted to start watching The Rockford Files, this would be a good place to start!

EPISODE 60 - "THELMA RITTER: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH" - 11/04/2024 There's a scene in the classic 1950 film All About Eve where Eve Harrington (ANNE BAXTER), a star-struck fan who has infiltrated the life of Broadway star Margo Channing (BETTE DAVIS), is telling the tragic story of her past to Margo and her friends. While Margo and company are drawn into the sad circumstances of Eve's life, Margo's acerbic dresser Birdie, played to perfection by the great THELMA RITTER, is not buying her sob story. After Eve finishes, Birdie mutters, "What a story! Everything but the bloodhounds snappin' at her rear end." This is probably the moment I fell in love with Ritter. With her heavy New York accent, diminutive size, working-class charm, and sarcastic zingers, she made a career of stealing scenes from big stars and making the most of her time on screen. She played characters wiser than most, and her characters certainly didn't suffer fools gladly. She is a cinematic treasure, and we celebrate her as our Star of the Month.

Nathan and Eppy go to where it all began with the TV movie pilot for The Rockford Files: 1974's Backlash of the Hunter. It's a good excuse to talk about the roots of Rockfordishness, the greatness of the casting, and the changes to come for the main show. While we obviously can't watch it with fresh eyes, it is a solid Huggins story elevated with first looks at all of our favorite elements as well as trips to Vegas, explosions, and a blood-chilling villain. I dunno, I think they might be onto something with this Rockford Files thing! We have another podcast: Plus Expenses.

Every weekday during HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST represents a different theme and today is our first discussion for Thursdays' theme we're calling TRUE THREAT THURSDAYS. Scary and chilling movies that are based upon true stories. Some selections are understandably more speculative than others and for our first “true threat” talk we're delving into an adaptation of an allegedly true alien abduction whose alien experimentation scene catapults what might have been a forgettable film into a certain level of notorious cult status. People around our age might know exactly what we're talking about when we reference THAT alien abduction scene. Thank goodness the director Robert Lieberman, as well as the writers and producers, opted to embellish Travis Walton's abduction details. Otherwise we wouldn't have gotten what is maybe the best alien abduction scene in film history. That's right, we're talking about the 1993 adaptation of the Travis Walton UFO incident called “FIRE IN THE SKY” starring Robert Patrick, James Garner & DB Sweeney. The actual story is controversial, even amongst UFO buffs, but either it's impressively real or almost equally impressively faked. We discuss this cult classic with the one legendary scene and compare it to the actual accounts at the end of the episode and give our thoughts on the matter. Bob kind of rambles like a conspiracy theorist.

Nathan and Eppy bid a bittersweet farewell to Rita with the final Rockford Files TV Move: If It Bleeds... It Leads (1999). This was a hard one! Rita's husband, schoolteacher Ernie (Hal Linden) is falsely accused of a series of child sexual assaults, and while Jim helps to clear his name, it's not enough to prevent a series of tragedies. While this one has wonderful performances and some great spots of the Rockfordishness we always love, the content and tone made it tough to say we "enjoyed" it. It did give us great closure on "Rita and Jim, their whole thing" but, unfortunately, was not the warm victory lap to bid farewell to our friends that we kinda wanted. Content Warnings: the plot is about a child rapist, scenes include child endangerment and there is a (relatively) graphic suicide. We have another podcast: Plus Expenses.
