Send us a textIn the darkness of an old asylum, a young man unscrews the lid from a bottle of sleeping pills. In the nearby village, two couples begin their day. Local doctor, Eric Parry, mulling secrets, sets out on his rounds, while his pregnant wife sleeps on in the warmth of their cottage.  Across the field, in a farmhouse impossible to heat, funny, troubled Rita Simmons is also asleep, her head full of images of a past life her husband prefers to ignore. He's been up for hours, tending to the needs of the small dairy farm he bought, a place where he hoped to create a new version of himself, a project that's already faltering … In this episode we talk to Andrew Miller about his latest novel, which some have called his best yet, The Land in Winter.

POST FACE, émission présentée par Caroline Gutmann Elle reçoit Bruno Corty pour son "Dictionnaire amoureux de la littérature américaine" aux éditions Plon. À propos du livre : « Dictionnaire amoureux de la littérature américaine » paru aux éditions Plon Bruno Corty est passionné par la littérature américaine depuis l'adolescence. Après avoir rencontré nombre de ses auteurs, il nous livre son abécédaire amoureux, un voyage dans le temps et l'espace, un hommage à celles et ceux qui l'ont fait rêver, qui l'ont bousculé et bouleversé. Il était une fois l'Amérique. Dès l'enfance, Bruno Corty a plongé dans ses espaces infinis, marché avec Thoreau, descendu le Mississippi avec Mark Twain, pris la mer avec Jack London et Herman Melville, tremblé avec Edgar Allan Poe. Pendant ses études, il s'est passionné pour les romans de Dos Passos, Faulkner, Fitzgerald, Hemingway. Devenu journaliste littéraire à la fin des années 80, il a découvert, sur les conseils d'amis éditeurs, les littératures de genre, du fantastique au polar. Il a eu la chance de rencontrer beaucoup d'auteurs : Norman Mailer, John Irving, James Ellroy, Don DeLillo, Russell Banks, Paul Auster, Richard Ford, Jim Harrison, James Salter, Stephen King... Son Amérique à lui raconte la Génération perdue, la Deuxième Guerre mondiale, la Chasse aux sorcières, la Beat Generation, les années Kennedy et Marilyn, le Nouveau Journalisme, le Viêt-Nam, Dylan prix Nobel. C'est New York et Los Angeles, San Francisco et la Louisiane, Jim Morrison et Patti Smith, Elia Kazan et Michael Cimino, des chanteurs, des poètes, des cinéastes devenus écrivains. La littérature américaine a deux siècles. C'est peu et c'est gigantesque au regard du nombre de ses chefs d'œuvres : de Moby Dick à Sanctuaire, de La Lettre écarlate à L'Attrape-cœurs, de Gatsby le magnifique au Dahlia noir, de Manhattan Transfer à L'Adieu aux armes. Bruno Corty, rédacteur en chef du Figaro littéraire, nourrit depuis toujours une passion pour la littérature américaine. Il a logiquement publié des textes sur les deux monstres que sont James Ellroy et Bret Easton Ellis. Il a également participé au manifeste L'aventure, pour quoi faire ?

Welcome to Episode 145 Sponsored by CultTVMan, Sean's Custom Model Tools and Return To Kit Form HostsStuartGeoffTerryRob RiviezzoI'm Rob Riviezzo, I'm from Long Island, NY. I've been building models since I was a small boy, probably around 6 or 7 years old when I used to sit with my dad while he made his HO scale train set. Took a break while in my teens and got back into the hobby around 21 after my mother fell ill and I was looking to get my mind off of all the craziness. I primarily build armour models, focused on mostly German and Russian WWII. I will also build the occasional modern armour subject or Sci Fi model like Gundam, or Star Wars. I am a very active member of Amps (Gotham Amps) and my local IPMS chapter (The Long Island Scale Model Society). I started the Modeling Insanity Podcast in May of 2023 after the Modeling Miscreant Podcast which I was a Co-Host on fell through. I am also now the Associate US Editor of Military Modelcraft International which is the largest English speaking Armor Military magazine in the world. I am a monthly contributor and reviewer for the magazine. I am known for my photo-etch and scratchbuilding. Thanks to our latest Patreon and Buy Me a Coffee Supporters:Check out our What We Like page for lists of what we like.***************************************LATEST NEWSJames MorandoI'm writing now because our local club, IPMS Santa Rosa, will be hosting a show on October 12, 2024 and I wanted to ask if you could please include our show during any upcoming model show “shoutouts" on your podcast.We are very excited about this year's show. This year we will be adopting an Open/GSB judging format for the first time. In fact I'm pretty sure this will be the very first show ever to use an open judging format in the IPMS Region 9, which encompasses Northern California and Nevada. So we'll be making a little history! With that in mind, the theme of our show will be “Evolution.”I have attached our show flyer below but the pertinent information is that: It will be held from 9-4 pm on Saturday, October 12, 2024 at the Rohnert Park Community Center in Rohnert Park, California. Free admission and $12 entry fee for first 3 models. Lots of great vendors are lined up, we will have a terrific raffle, will be doing a build and take table and then the Open/GSB judging. We are also asking folks to bring kits and model building supplies to the show for donation to support our charity initiative for Help Heal Veterans, a wonderful organization that provides free theraputic kits and modeling supplies to veterans.***************************************MAILBAGWe want to hear from you! Let us know if you have any comments or suggestions scalemodelpodcast@gmail.com.Hi Stuart,Paul ReddingJust to say I am following your Tamiya 1/350 build with interest as I bought the 1/450 Hasegawa version earlier this month as part of a carrier / IJN aircraft rabbit hole I went down...I have steered clear of anything Japanese all my modeling life but finally, curiosity got the better of me and I caved. Lots of research on IJN aircraft and how it all got built up resulted in about 18 aircraft kits...doh! Luckily there were some sales on including the canopy masks so that helped...I haven't built any warships before (except Airfix Victorious in 1/600 in the 60s as my father was on it in the Fleet Air Arm as a flight engineer bringing the aircraft up on deck and have pics of it in Sydney Harbour (see attached). You can also see its' sister ship Illustrious and maybe you / Geoff can identify the aircraft on board - Martlets? One photo shows an aircraft that seems to have stuffed it into the tower. I seem to have ended up with quite a few carriers as I also get sucked into watching docos on PBS America which is fatalA doco on the scuttling of the ships at Scarpa Flow and the film Sink The Bismark didn't help either so that ended up with a few more purchases; I can't see the detail in 1/700 so minimum is 1/450 or the usual 1/350Like you I try to stay away from PE but have bought a few railing kits and also for the radar arrays/antenna if not included; plus the wooden deck sets and a couple of brass barrel sets for Prince Eugen...I also concur with your plan to paint common parts on the sprues and build in sub-assemblies ( I have been doing this for my model railway wagon kits in batches of 4 or 6 - makes for alot simpler build)I am mentally prepared for a ship build; after 1/48 aircraft and 1/24 cars, its going to be very different.Hope the extended break allows y'all to recharge and come back rested - I build for the relaxation like I did all those years ago pre-internet and do it to my own standards ie no interest/point in trying to achieve the standards of some of the professional kit builders out there on YT or the forums***************************************LATEST HOBBY ANNOUNCEMENTSICM's Eight September ReleasesBarracuda Studios ten new sets in two scales to upgrade your Mossie, Sea Fury & YakNew 35th scale WWII US Tank Crew from Border ModelTakom's 35th scale M29C Weasel in Arctic/Antarctic Expedition VehicleTTakom's new art & a BIG box combine their Sd.Kfz.201/1 & 3 + Rommel figure1/72 Bandai PG Millennium Falcon is being rereleased in March1/48 - Mitsubishi/Nakajima A6M5 Type 52 Hei/"Zero" by Finemolds - Dec 2024Gecko to release the Mk I version of the Universal Carrier in 1/16th scaleDB Model Kits [DBMK] is planning to release a plastic-injected Spitfire Mk.XIV in 1:32 scaleLukgraph RAF BE2c in 1:32 scaleMiniArt Kits Available September 2024 What's new at Scalemates.com ***************************************SPONSOR AD #1Cult TV Man***************************************Topic - The state of publishing magazines from Rob's view**************************************WHAT'S ON THE BENCHStuart - Not a ton of time but finished Yamato and started a 1/72 Italeri F-22 which will be made into a what-if CF-22.

James Salter is the best American writer you've probably never read. He was a fighter pilot in the Korean War, and a successful screenwriter. His sentences are fractured jewels. The details are closely observed, the imagery poetic. Every page contains an observation I want to write down. Biographer Jeffrey Meyers joined me to talk about Salter's remarkable prose style, his core themes of love and loss, and why this giant of American fiction isn't more widely read today.

Incipit da "Bruciare i giorni" di James SalterLettura di Marco PalagiSinossi:In "Bruciare i giorni" l'eccezionalità dell'esistenza di James Salter – cadetto di West Point, ufficiale dell'aeronautica militare, pilota di caccia, sceneggiatore – si fa romanzo e si dispiega in tutta la sua ricchezza, trasfigurata dalla potenza di una scrittura che illumina, scava, consuma quasi, esperienze, progetti, passioni. Vertiginosa è la varietà di scenari e paesaggi: New York, la Corea degli anni della guerra, Parigi vista con meraviglioso disincanto da espatriato, fino alla Roma di Pasolini e Laura Betti. E insieme agli amici e agli incontri che hanno ispirato i personaggi dei suoi libri, ci sono in queste pagine tutti i cieli e gli aeroplani, le feste, le mogli e le amanti: Salter sembra non poter fare a meno delle donne, per la loro bellezza e le promesse di felicità che nascondono. Costante è in lui l'anelito alla perfezione, all'immortalità, cui può aspirare solo chi non si sottrae alla sfida con il destino e con la caducità dell'esistenza e dei sentimenti umani. Il pilota che affronta l'aereo nemico nella solitudine del proprio abitacolo; l'amante che guarda l'oggetto del suo amore, o l'amore stesso, sfiorire; l'atleta che si prepara a una partita decisiva; lo scrittore in cerca d'ispirazione o in lotta con la pagina scritta. Che si tratti di Saint Exupéry o di Ed White, di un Kerouac alle prime armi, di Irwin Shaw, di Faulkner o di ignoti compagni di scuola e ragazze di una sera, Salter ci rivela, evocandone il ricordo, tutto quel che può essere la vita, a saperla e volerla raccontare.

Welcome to Episode 201 featuring an Author Spotlight with LUANNE RICE recorded at the beautiful and welcoming Phoebe Griffin Noyes Library in Old Lyme, CT. Luanne's new novel, LAST NIGHT, is out now. You've heard us rave about it in recent episodes and we do our best to keep our conversation with Luanne spoiler free. Some highlights of this episode: After recording with Luanne, we headed to Bank Square Books in Mystic, CT to attend her book launch. She was in conversation with new-to-us author, VANESSA LILLIE. It was a great event and the reception afterwards at The Captain Daniel Packer Inne was filled with love, good conversation, and delicious food. Later that night we both started Vanessa's new thriller, BLOOD SISTERS. We binged it and highly recommend you check it out. Other books and stories we've recently read include THE SICILIAN INHERITANCE by Jo Piazza (out 4/2/2024) and RIVER OF THE GODS: Genius, Courage, and Betrayal in the Search for the Source of the Nile by Candice Millard. Emily read two short stories:“The Irish Wedding” from the story collection THE SOUVENIR MUSEUM by Elizabeth McCracken and “Such Fun” from the story collection LAST NIGHT by James Salter. Chris also declared that she's “finished” reading Emily Wilson's new translation of THE ILIAD by Homer. In Biblio Adventures, Emily went to Charter Books in Newport, RI for the book launch of FLOAT UP, SING DOWN by Laird Hunt. Chris acquired a few more IKEA bookcases and immediately started filling them up with purchases from Barnes & Noble and Blackwell's. Thanks to the sponsor of this episode, Anthony Ausiello, whose new novel, BROOKLYN ‘76, comes out on 2/20/2024. Thanks for listening, and Happy Reading! https://www.bookcougars.com/blog-1/2024/episode201

A note about the poem from Samuel Cheney for MQR's Winter 2024 issue: This poem tracks a culminating series of coincidences. It celebrates the spooky correspondences and recursions the universe sometimes presents to us. The poem turns when the narrator happens upon James Salter's story “The Destruction of the Goetheanum,” in which the "vast, brooding structure" of the Goetheanum appears as both a photograph and a symbol. A failed writer in Salter's story is at work on an unfinished novel—“the one great act of his life”––which is also called The Goetheanum. My poem is named in honor of this project.

Op de dag dat haar tweede boek ‘Niet vergeten' in Amerika verscheen sprak ik met Eveline Helmink, hoofdredacteur van het tijdschrift Happinez, master coach, en auteur van twee bestsellers, of in haar woorden: troostboeken. Eveline ziet haar boeken als uitgestoken handen, misschien dat ze het daarom soms moeilijk vindt om zich te verhouden tot het (grote) succes ervan. Ze schrijft vanuit een innerlijke noodzaak, het is haar eerste manier van uitdrukken die haar helpt te vertragen en te verwerken. Hoe dat uitpakt is voor haar bijzaak. In deze aflevering vertelt ze niet alleen wat haar drijft, maar ook wat haar soms hindert in het schrijven, hoe ze de tijd ervoor vindt naast een drukke baan en een gezin en ze geeft haar mening over persoonlijke- en zelfhulpboeken. Verder hoor je:*Wat voor haar het verschil in toon is tussen haar eerste en tweede boek*Waarom ze vindt dat persoonlijke verhalen tot een universeel inzicht moeten leiden *Wat haar vader en broers vonden van 'Niet Vergeten' waarin ze ook de pijnlijke momenten met haar dementerende moeder beschrijft *Hoe het schrijven betekenis en zeggingskracht geeft aan wat ze meemaakt maar waarom ze ook ongemak ervaart*Op welke manier ze naast een fulltime baan, twee kinderen, een coachpraktijk en een sociaal leven ruimte maakt voor het schrijven *Welke boeken haar favoriet zijn en waarom *Welke schrijfoefening ze haar coachees meegeeft************************************************************************************De boeken die Eveline noemt:-Tiny Beautiful Things van Sheryl StrayedHet jaar van het magische denken van Joan DidionDe boeken van James Salter. Eveline schreef zelf Handboek voor mindere dagen en Niet Vergeten.Ze schreef ook een prachtige quote op mijn laatste boek 'Doorbreek de cirkel.'Je kunt Eveline volgen op Instagram Ik ben daar ook vrij actief met mijn eigen account en De SchrijfcastWil je reageren op deze podcast, mijn schrijftrainingen, boeken of mij  weten?

In this episode, fashion-insider, host Kristen Cole sits with the wildly brilliant multi-hyphenates Claudia Dey and Heidi Sopinka, founders and designers of HORSES Atelier, and accomplished authors, to indulge in some favorite fashion in fiction. Kristen gets to geek out over the fashion and prose in *must-reads* Heartbreaker by Claudia Dey and Utopia by Heidi Sopinka, and some all-time fashion moment classics in C.S. Lewis, J.D. Salinger, and Roald Dahl; while Claudia and Heidi nerd out over fashion in Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan novels, Orlando by Virginia Woolf, James Salter's Light Years and everyone's favorite, Anne of Green Gables. The women discuss: "fashion as a form of autobiography", the role of vintage in their friendship, design and ethos and the HORSES values set around beauty, utility, wildness and endurance. They also talk about the cosmic founding of the brand, favorite spots in Toronto "like Brooklyn without Manhattan", their atelier practice, what's on their mood boards, prairie dresses, punk dressing, wildness and rebellion, Simone de Beauvoir, Judy Chicago, swans, donkeys, amazing cocktails, dressing their characters, creativity, connecting to life through observation, clothing as "soft armor", and what they are both reading now. "Fashion can be seen as frivolous, but it's also profound and emotional." -HORSES. Kristen also touches on what she's reading (and hopes to be beach-reading soon), NYC sample sales, Palm Beach retail, fashion in context, the perfect summer necklace, the dangers of working in SoHo... and more.

Phim Trọn Bộ: Sự Tuôn Đổ Của Đức Thánh Linh Đạo diễn: Gary Wilkinson Diễn viên chính: Tiến sĩ Neil Hudson, Keith Malcomson, Des Cartwright Chuyển ngữ: Đội ngũ Ba-rúc Được sự cho phép của: Vision Video Một nhóm tín hữu nhỏ đã cầu nguyện sốt sắng cho Phấn Hưng tại Anh quốc vào đầu thế kỷ 20. Họ không hề biết cách Đức Chúa Trời sẽ đáp lời cầu nguyện ấy - một sự đáp lời sẽ tác động trên hội thánh toàn cầu. Cuộc phấn hưng này sẽ dẫn đến sự ra đời của hệ phái Ngũ Tuần tại Anh và thức tỉnh con người để bước vào một mối quan hệ mới với Chúa. Bộ phim tài liệu này xem xét Phong trào Ngũ tuần của Anh và nguồn gốc của nó trong thế kỷ 20. Qua một loạt các buổi nhóm tại Sunderland 1907 do Alexander Boddy, một linh mục Anh giáo, và Thomas Barratt, một mục sư đến từ Na Uy tổ chức, đã có một "sự tuôn đổ của Chúa Thánh Linh" trong vài năm. Đức Chúa Trời đã dấy lên nhiều mục vụ và tác động đến một số con người chủ chốt như Smith Wigglesworth, Thomas Myerscough, W.F.B. Burron, James Salter, George Jeffreys, Stephen Jeffreys và những người khác. Họ đã ra đi và truyền bá Tin mừng của Chúa Cứu Thế Giê-Su và thông điệp về Lễ Ngũ Tuần. Đặc biệt, Smith Wigglesworth là một nhà truyền giáo đến từ West Yorkshire, Anh, người dám tin rằng mọi điều đều có thể xảy ra. Ông đã ảnh hưởng đến phong trào Ngũ tuần trên toàn thế giới hơn bất kỳ cá nhân nào khác trong thế kỷ 20. Ông đã dẫn nhiều linh hồn về cho Chúa Giê-su, và các dấu kỳ phép lạ đã xảy ra tại bất cứ nơi nào ông rao giảng Tin Mừng. Stephen và George Jeffreys - Hai anh em từ một gia đình khai thác mỏ ở thung lũng Nam Wales được cứu trong cuộc phục hưng của xứ Wales. Họ sẽ tiếp tục truyền giáo và thành lập các hội thánh Tân Ước trên khắp Vương quốc Anh. Cũng có thể kể đến Stephen và George Jeffreys. George Jeffreys là người sáng lập ra phong trào Ngũ tuần Elim vẫn tiếp tục cho đến ngày nay. Ông đã có một số buổi nhóm ruyền giảng lớn nhất mà Vương quốc Anh từng chứng kiến.

Volum recent apărut în traducerea Justinei Bandol în colecția „Raftul Denisei“, colecție coordonată de Denisa Comănescu. Cel de-al treilea roman al lui James Salter, „Un joc și o desfătare“, a schimbat pentru totdeauna traiectoria carierei literare a autorului său, propulsându-l în galeria scriitorilor americani de raftul întâi. Fost pilot militar, Salter se decisese încă din anii cincizeci să se dedice total scrisului și publicase două romane care prezentau cu onestitate viața în armată. Un joc și o desfătare ia în stăpânire un teritoriu cu totul nou, explorând relația intens erotică dintre un tânăr american de condiție bună și o modestă vânzătoare dintr-un oraș francez de provincie. Profund liric și senzual, romanul a generat o undă de șoc în rândul publicului cititor și i-a cucerit pe critici prin stilul său. Participă: Justina Bandol traducătoarea romanului, Gelu Diaconu, scriitor, editor coordonator #Omiedesemne și Angelo Mitchievici, critic literar.

Arrancamos con Cristina Consuegra, alma mater de la cita que nos habló de lo que había ocurrido en la jornada ("La cultura que nos salvó") y lo que estaba por llegar en las horas siguientes ("Otro cine es posible" o el "Rodaje" de Manuel Gutiérrez Aragón). Luego establecimos comunicación telefónica con Paloma Peñarrubia que es la parte musical (la visual es de Azael Ferrer) de Bromo y que daban concierto (espectáculo audiovisual de música electrónica y arte generativo) después de que se suspendiera el del MaF 2020. Se trata de presentar "No signal" su segundo disco. que ellos definen como más reivindicativo y ácido. Y de cierre más allá de la media hora final Jorge y Pau representaron a La Habitación Roja que asimismo tenían concierto esta noche. "Años luz" (fuente de inspiración en James Salter) es su entrega vigente con esas canciones que han ido saliendo poco a poco ("1986" con referencia nostálgica a aquella primera vez en una disco; "Taquicardia" con experiencia de revés de salud en carne propia o "esa camiseta que llevaba cuando te conocí y que fue mi única bandera") desde que en noviembre de 2019 se estrenaron con Intromúsica.

On se sépare des gens comme on se sépare des livres: dans la douleur et la nostalgie. On tourne cette dernière page en essayant de faire durer le plaisir, en profitant de la délicatesse de chaque mot, de la force de la syntaxe et de la complexité des personnages. A la différence près que les relations ne peuvent pas toujours être reconstruites, alors que nous pouvons relire sans fin les livres. Mais: “C'est ça qui est beau, de se dire "ça ne dure pas" donc kiffez ces plaisirs terrestres”.(12’55)L'humoriste Marina Rollman, que l’on entend au micro de Maud Ventura, nous dévoile son livre - Un bonheur parfait de James Salter. Ce roman, elle l’a ouvert pour la première fois à 20 ou 21 ans: “dans le bus.” (10’22) et, depuis il ne l’a pas quittée. Ce livre trace l’histoire d’un couple d’américains que l’on suit tout au long de leur vie, soit pendant une quarantaine d’années. Du point de vue de Marina Rollman, c’est un livre sur la beauté du quotidien, ce genre de livres qui “font apprécier la vie” (10’43) et ces auteurs ou ces artistes qui permettent de “mieux voir" (10’53) "Ca ne rend pas le monde beau, ça aiguise mon oeil" (11’20)Marina Rollman qui “essaie d’être quelqu’un de culturé mais [qui] n’y arrive pas toujours” (1’48) nous accueille dans sa bibliothèque rangée par langues “Je lis beaucoup en anglais, un peu trop je pense, mon vocabulaire français s’est appauvri en fait” (2’26). La raison de ce rangement est simple: "Parfois la littérature francophone m'impressionne, je ne sais pas par où entrer” (2’45). A la fin de cette rencontre, ce qui nous reste, c’est notamment cette phrase de Marina Rollman: “Je trouve ça toujours très beau les gens qui arrivent à concilier un intellect fou avec quelqu’un avec qui tu as envie de passer une soirée” (2’17) C’est exactement ce que l’on s’est dit en la découvrant un peu plus, elle, dans sa bibliothèque et à travers ses lectures de femme “woke, social warrior [et] féminazie” (6’36): la sensation d’avoir passé un temps précieux avec une femme avertie, forte et engagée.Cet épisode a été mené par Maud Ventura.

On se sépare des gens comme on se sépare des livres: dans la douleur et la nostalgie. On tourne cette dernière page en essayant de faire durer le plaisir, en profitant de la délicatesse de chaque mot, de la force de la syntaxe et de la complexité des personnages. A la différence près que les relations ne peuvent pas toujours être reconstruites, alors que nous pouvons relire sans fin les livres. Mais: “C'est ça qui est beau, de se dire "ça ne dure pas" donc kiffez ces plaisirs terrestres”.(12’55)L'humoriste Marina Rollman, que l’on entend au micro de Maud Ventura, nous dévoile son livre - Un bonheur parfait de James Salter. Ce roman, elle l’a ouvert pour la première fois à 20 ou 21 ans: “dans le bus.” (10’22) et, depuis il ne l’a pas quittée. Ce livre trace l’histoire d’un couple d’américains que l’on suit tout au long de leur vie, soit pendant une quarantaine d’années. Du point de vue de Marina Rollman, c’est un livre sur la beauté du quotidien, ce genre de livres qui “font apprécier la vie” (10’43) et ces auteurs ou ces artistes qui permettent de “mieux voir" (10’53) "Ca ne rend pas le monde beau, ça aiguise mon oeil" (11’20)Marina Rollman qui “essaie d’être quelqu’un de culturé mais [qui] n’y arrive pas toujours” (1’48) nous accueille dans sa bibliothèque rangée par langues “Je lis beaucoup en anglais, un peu trop je pense, mon vocabulaire français s’est appauvri en fait” (2’26). La raison de ce rangement est simple: "Parfois la littérature francophone m'impressionne, je ne sais pas par où entrer” (2’45). A la fin de cette rencontre, ce qui nous reste, c’est notamment cette phrase de Marina Rollman: “Je trouve ça toujours très beau les gens qui arrivent à concilier un intellect fou avec quelqu’un avec qui tu as envie de passer une soirée” (2’17) C’est exactement ce que l’on s’est dit en la découvrant un peu plus, elle, dans sa bibliothèque et à travers ses lectures de femme “woke, social warrior [et] féminazie” (6’36): la sensation d’avoir passé un temps précieux avec une femme avertie, forte et engagée.Vous pouvez également la retrouver sur scène dans son one-woman show Un spectacle drôle au théâtre de L’Oeuvre et dans ses chroniques sur France Inter.Cet épisode a été mené par Maud Ventura.

Dartmouth Films presents, Five Seasons: The Gardens of Piet Oudolf. Directed by Thomas Piper which Premieres in the UK at Picturehouse Central, 13 June 2019. On todays episode Thomas talks with Peter Donegan. The Sodshow is available weekly in iTunes, spotify, Youtube and all good podcast stores.  Five Seasons: The Gardens of Piet Oudolf is an immersion in the life and work of the most influential landscape designer of the last 50 years. Piet is responsible for New York’s High Line and many other iconic urban spaces. Closer home, Piet designed the landscaping for the entire site at Hauser & Wirth Somerset. He is in great demand for his revolutionary ideas of what gardens and public spaces can be, and the impact they can have. More than just a movie for gardeners, Five Seasons changes the way all of us think about and ultimately see beauty itself. The Sodshow: Twitter: @sodshow facebook: The Sodshow instagram: sodshow About Five Seasons: Celebrated by gardeners for his revolutionary designs, by ecologists for his significant contributions to bio-diversity, by horticulturalists and botanists for his unrivalled knowledge of plants, and by the art, design and fashion worlds for his innovative aesthetics, Piet Oudolf has achieved a level of influence and cultural relevance, rarely, if ever, attained by, in his own words, a modest plantsman. Over the course of the documentary, Piet leads filmmaker Thomas Piper and his camera on a wandering journey, visiting many of his iconic works, including his own garden in Holland and the great public works in New York, Chicago, and the UK, as well as far-flung sources of inspiration, from German industrial parks to the deep woods of Pennsylvania, and a Texas wildflower explosion. In between travel, we are afforded an exclusive look at the entire process of creating a garden — from winter studio sketches to foggy spring planting and, finally, a late September opening celebration — all through a single project, what Piet now refers to as his masterpiece, the 7000 square metre public garden for the art gallery, Hauser & Wirth Somerset. With meditative cinematography and intimate conversations, Five Seasons follows Piet over the course of a year, a structure that accentuates the element of time in Piet’s designs. Beginning in late autumn, the remnants of summer opulence in his gardens give way to the ‘skeletons’ and seed heads of winter. With spring, the cycle begins again, through the peak of summer flowers, and by the return of fall, a complex subject has helped us to appreciate his complex work, forever changing the way we see the world around us. Piet Oudolf: Piet Oudolf was born in 1944 in Haarlem, Netherlands. Since 1982, he has lived and worked in Hummelo, a tiny village in east Netherlands, where he started a nursery with his wife Anja, to grow perennials. His garden has since become renowned for its radical approach and ideas about planting design. Oudolf also co-founded Future Plants, a company specialising in selecting, growing, breeding and protecting plants for landscaping and public areas. Oudolf’s recent public projects include No. 5 Culture Chanel, Paris, France; The High Line, New York NY; Lurie Garden, Millennium Park, Chicago IL; Serpentine Gallery, London, England, and the Venice Biennale, Venice, Italy. Oudolf is also a successful author, having co-written numerous books such as; “Planting: A New Perspective” (2013); “Landscape in Landscapes” (2011); “Gardening with Grasses” (1998); “Designing with Plants and Planting Design” (1999); “Dream Plants for the Natural Garden” (2000); “Planting the Natural Garden” (2003), and “Planting Design: Gardens in Time and Space” (2005). In his 35-year career, Oudolf has achieved international acclaim, and has recently been awarded an Honorary Fellowship from RIBA for developing radical ideas in Planting Design (2012) and the Prince Bernhard Cultural Foundation Award (2013). Thomas Piper: Thomas Piper is an award-winning non-fiction filmmaker, specialising in documenting the contemporary arts. He holds the role of Director of Production for Checkerboard Films, and has directed, photographed and edited more than 25 films on contemporary painters, sculptors, photographers, architects, and writers. His 2008 film, Ellsworth Kelly: Fragments, won the Best Film for Television award at the prestigious International Festival of Films on Art (FIFA) in Montreal. As an independent producer, he was commissioned by the Guggenheim Museum to make Art, Architecture, and Innovation: Celebrating the Guggenheim Museum, a documentary marking the 50th anniversary of the Frank Lloyd Wright museum building. He is currently in production on a documentary about the cult architecture firm, Lot-ek. His feature length documentary, Diller Scofidio + Renfro: Reimagining Lincoln Center and the High Line, was broadcast on PBS affiliates around the US, and accepted over 25 festivals around the world. Other subjects have included the artists Sol Lewitt and Kiki Smith, the writer James Salter, the art historian Vincent Scully, the architects Peter Eisenman, Steven Holl, Jean Nouvel and Thom Mayne, and MacArthur “genius” grant winner, Jeanne Gang.

Rob has directed one of the biggest budget episodes of television in history, "The Spoils of War" and one of the most viral moments of modern television "The Red Wedding." Here with David Leitner, Cinematographer of the critically acclaimed "Trembling Before G-d", serving as moderator, Rob dissects his most recent television work. Rob offers his generous insight into the choices behind his camerawork on "Ray Donovan," "WestWorld," and of course, "Game of Thrones." About Robert McLachlan, ASC, CSC: Robert was born in San Francisco. He became involved with photography and film at an early age thanks to an artistic father. Since then, Robert has moved on with unusual ease between television and theatrical films of all sizes. In the process, winning many awards and amassing hundreds of credits including close to 50 Theatrical and television movies; as well as over 550 episodes of Television that include "MacGyver" in the late ’80s and the groundbreaking, "Millennium" in the mid’90ss. Recently he shot what is regarded as the most famous episode of TV ever - best known as “The Red Wedding”, in addition to the biggest episode of TV ever made, "The Spoils of War." Both of these episodes are from the international phenomenon, "Game of Thrones." His other TV credits include "Westworld" for HBO and Showtime’s critically acclaimed, "Ray Donovan." Along the way, he has returned to wearing both Director and cinematographer hats on the movies "The Golden Compass" and "Dragonball Evolution" on their second units and more recently he has directed episodes of "Ray Donovan." About the Moderator: David Leitner is a director, producer, and Emmy-nominated DP (Chuck Close: Portrait in Progress), with over eighty credits in feature-length dramas and documentaries, including eight Sundance Film Festival premieres. These include his own Vienna is Different: 50 Years After the Anchluss, Alan Berliner’s Nobody’s Business, Sandi Dubowski’s Trembling Before G-d, the Oscar-nominated documentary For All Mankind, for which he spent nine months at NASA’s Johnson Space Center restoring original 16mm lunar footage, and Memories of Overdevelopment, a Cuban follow-up to 1968’s film classic, Memories of Underdevelopment. For over 25 years, as DP, he has photographed hour-long documentaries on iconic writers, artists, and architects for New York’s Checkerboard Film Foundation. Subjects include Brancusi, Picasso, James Salter, Joel Shapiro, Sir John Soane, Ellsworth Kelly, Milton Glaser, Daniel Libeskind, Dorothea Rockburne, Peter Eisenman, Roy Lichtenstein, Eric Fischl, Jeff Koons, Frank Stella, and Sol LeWitt.

This year’s fourth annual Sight, Sound & Story: The Art of Cinematography event we'll go behind the lens to better understand the challenges and decisions made by top visual artists in the realm of narrative TV, documentary and feature films.

Mark and Aaron celebrate the Summer Olympics by exploring Downhill Racer, an independent film about the Winter Olympics. We draw parallels to what is portrayed in the Michael Ritchie with the actual sporting events that take place today, including the thrills of victory and the agony of defeat. We discuss the groundbreaking cinematography, the nature of winning in an individual sport and the the enduring legacy of Sundance that began with this film. About the film: Astonishing Alpine location photography and a young Robert Redford in one of his earliest starring roles are just two of the visual splendors of Downhill Racer, the visceral debut feature of Michael Ritchie. In a beautifully understated performance, Redford is David Chappellet, a ruthlessly ambitious skier competing for Olympic gold with an underdog American team in Europe, and Gene Hackman provides tough support as the coach who tries to temper the upstart's narcissistic drive for glory. With a subtle screenplay by acclaimed novelist James Salter, Downhill Racer is a vivid character portrait buoyed by breathtakingly fast and furious imagery that brings the viewer directly into the mind of the competitor.

With Mark Lawson. This year the shelf of great American authors unexpectedly lengthened when a novel called Stoner by John Williams, forgotten since its first appearance five decades ago, was republished to widespread acclaim. At the same time two neglected novels by Renata Adler received enthusiastic reviews when brought back into print after thirty years and two little known writers, 89 year old James Salter and 76 year old Edith Pearlman, were hailed as newly discovered geniuses. Salter, Pearlman and Adler reflect on literary resurrection and Julian Barnes and Ruth Rendell discuss the comeback of Stoner. Producer: Ellie Bury.

Matthew Sweet talks to the American writer, James Salter...although writer seems rather an inadequate description. He's been a fighter pilot, a rock climber and a film maker as well sitting at a desk staring at a blank page. His memoir Burning the Days came out in the UK in 1997 to huge acclaim and he's published some short stories since then as well but now, after a gap of 34 years, there's a brand new novel - All That Is. Matthew Sweet talks to him about the thrill of flying, women, grief and the consolations of fiction.

With Mark Lawson Robert De Niro and Diane Keaton star in The Big Wedding, playing an ex-married couple who must pretend to be together for their adopted son's wedding. The starry cast also includes Susan Sarandon, Amanda Seyfried and Robin Williams as the priest. Larushka Ivan-Zadeh delivers her verdict. A new series on the Tudors begins on BBC TV this week - so why is this historical period so popular with TV executives, and which other parts of British history deserve the TV treatment? Historians Henrietta Leyser and Don Spaeth pitch their alternatives. Veteran American writer James Salter has just published his first novel in 34 years. All That Is comes garlanded with praise from writers on both sides of the Atlantic, and draws together many of the themes of Salter's lifetime's work: war, love, sex and marriage. Often considered the great overlooked writer, 87 year old Salter discusses the novel's long gestation, and his trademark economy of prose. In Cultural Exchange, in which leading creative minds reflect on a favourite cultural experience, David Walliams discusses the work of Harold Pinter, and recalls the guidance Pinter gave him when he performed in No Man's Land. Producer Penny Murphy.
