Dana and Tom with 5x Club member, Sarah Duncan, and new guest, Brian Skutle (Film critic, podcaster, composer, host of Sonic Cinema, projector fixer) discuss Mr. Smith Goes to Washington for its 85th anniversary: directed by Frank Capra, written by Sidney Buchman and Myles Connelly, music by Dmitri Tiomkin, starring James Stewart, Jean Arthur, Claude Rains, and Edward Arnold.Plot Summary: Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is a classic tale of idealism clashing with the gritty realities of political power. Jimmy Stewart stars as Jefferson Smith, a naive but well-intentioned small-town man thrust into the unforgiving world of Washington politics after being unexpectedly appointed to the U.S. Senate. Smith, with his earnest love for American principles, soon finds himself entangled in a web of corruption and power-play, where his sincere belief in doing the right thing is dismissed as foolish by hardened senators.What follows is a story of resilience, where Stewart's character battles not only for a cause but for his very soul. Director Frank Capra lets his protagonist shine during a famous filibuster scene, in which Stewart's quivering intensity speaks volumes about the weight of standing up to corruption. While Capra's romanticized view of democracy is apparent, he tempers it with a frankness about the ugliness of the political machine—a balance that resonates even decades later. It's a movie as much about Smith's journey as it is about a society's idealism and its power to confront, and perhaps even mend itself.Chapters:00:00 Welcome and Introduction to Our Guests01:38 Getting to Know - Brian Skutle05:56 Cast and Recognition for Mr. Smith Goes to Washington09:39 Why This Movie?12:21 Relationship(s) with Mr. Smith Goes to Washington15:04 What is Mr. Smith Goes to Washington About?19:57 Is Mr. Smith Goes to Washington Outdated?22:56 Plot Summary for Mr. Smith Goes to Washington24:30 Did You Know?26:51 First Break28:29 What's Happening with Sarah and Brian31:10 Ask Dana Anything39:23 Best Performance(s)53:16 Best/Favorite/Indelible Scene(s)01:05:32 Second Break01:06:14 In Memoriam01:08:31 Best/Funniest Lines01:11:09 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy01:19:01 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance01:24:16 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:28:46 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness01:34:11 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability01:37:52 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total01:38:58 Remaining Questions for Mr. Smith Goes to Washington01:44:18 Thank You to Our Guests01:45:57 CreditsGuests:Sarah Duncan - Sister of Tom, Daughter of Dana@thenomadicarchaeologist on IGPrevious Episodes: Zodiac, My Fair Lady, The Artist, Inglourious Basterds, The Great Dictator, and

Front Row Classics is shining the spotlight on one of the underrated gems in Billy Wilder's body of work. Brandon is joined by Benjamin Meissner to discuss 1948's A Foreign Affair. Benjamin is a classic film enthusiast  who also is the President of the Marilyn Monroe fan club in Germany. Brandon and Benjamin discuss the wit and poignancy of this post World War II look at Berlin. They praise the performances of Jean Arthur, John Lund and especially Marlene Dietrich in one of her finest screen roles. Benjamin also helps to shine a spotlight on how Wilder uses Berlin as a character unto itself in the film.

George Stevens demuestra su saber hacer en esta deliciosa comedia, con un ritmo más pausado que el de Hawks o Capra, La chica soltera vive sola en tiempos de guerra, la segunda guerra mundial amenaza el mundo al otro lado del océano, y Connie -Jean Arthur- ofrece su piso en tiempo de escasez de viviendas en las ciudades norteamericanas. Tiempos de zozobra en los que todos deben arrimar el hombro y salir adelante. Y allí llega el señor Dingle, un sensacional Charles Coburn, y adopta su frase favorita del almirante Farragut, héroe de otra guerra, la de secesión: “¡Malditos torpedos! ¡Avanzad a toda velocidad!” Curiosamente el propio Frankin D Roosevelt apelaría a esa frase en discursos arengando a los oficiales de la marina tras el ataque a Pearl Harbour. En esta encantadora comedia todos los instrumentos están perfectamente afinados. La narración bien hilada, McCrea, Arthur y Coburn se mueven como peces en el agua en ese apartamento que conocemos desde que la metódica mujer entregue al nuevo inquilino un horario imposible de cumplir. Tetlaff filma los devaneos y los desencuentros, los planos frontales en los ventanas con cada habitante del apartamento en su habitación. O el travelling memorable del paseo nocturno de la pareja , Joe manosea a Connie sin freno y a ella parece no importarle, la intimidad entre Jean Arthur y Joel McCrea traspasa la pantalla, y el prometido del tupé falso se queda esperando en el salón de baile. Todo gracias al casamentero señor Dingle, no tiene prisa y se ríe de casi todo, sabe que una mujer joven que escribe un diario pertenece al grupo de personas que tienen suficiente tiempo para hacerlo, y claro está, la vida es mejor vivirla que escribirla. Esta noche cantamos la canción de los torpedos con el señor Dingle… Salvador Limón, Zacarías Cotán y Raúl Gallego.

Jimmy Stewart wasn't a big star yet when he worked with Frank Capra for the first time in this picture. No matter. You Can't Take It With You belongs to the top-billed Jean Arthur and especially Lionel Barrymore anyway. A word that didn't come up in Ryan's solo show here is "screwball", although this Best Picture winner is clearly working in that genre. The flick just didn't make this fellow laugh. Of course, director Capra won his 3rd Oscar in just 5 years for this effort...and all 3 were screwball comedies. The man was in his element. At least his movie is genial and it's a solid-enough story. So agree with the movie's admirable message while trying to find something in it that might actually make you giggle as this 578th episode of Have You Ever Seen picks through You Can't Take It With You. Well, Actually: Anthony Kirby Senior DOES smile before the scene with the harmonicas at the end. He grins when Penny tells Mrs. Kirby that her hobby is silly.

Many directors fit certain categories of filmmaking ... when you think of films that focus on the little guy overcoming obstacles and beating corporations or banks or the rich ... well, you think of Frank Capra.  Capra won three Academy Awards in 5 years and the last win is likely his least-known film for movie fans of today, You Can't Take It With You.  This zany screwball comedy has a message and heart, but it also has wonderful performances by Jimmy Stewart, Jean Arthur, and especially Lionel Barrymore. However, is that enough to have film critic Jack Ferdman give it his Rewatching Oscar of 1938?

EPISODE 23 - “I Coulda Been a Contender: Classic Casting That Almost Happened” - 02/19/2024 It is well documented that the film “Gone With The Wind” started filming before an actress was cast in the lead role of Scarlett O'Hara. Producer DAVID O. SELZNICK made a spectacle out of who would win the coveted role. It became a national obsession. He considered everyone from TALLULAH BANKHEAD to BETTE DAVIS to LUCILLE BALL. He eventually narrowed the field to three finalists: PAULETTE GODDARD, JOAN BENNETT, and JEAN ARTHUR. But in the eleventh hour, a new contender, an unknown Brit named VIVIEN LEIGH, swept in and won the role. Listen as we discuss, debate, and guffaw over other casting choices that almost happened in some of your favorite film classics.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Hollywood's First Choices: How The Greatest Casting Decisions Were Made (1994), by Jeff Burkhart and Bruce Stuart; Casting Might Have Beens (2005), by Eila Mell; Jean Arthur: The Actress Nobody Knew (2004), by John Oller; George Raft: The Man Who Would Be Bogart (2015), by Stone Wallace; Life is a Banquet (1974), by Rosalind Russell; Joan Crawford: The Enduring Star (2009), by Peter Cowie; Michael Curtiz: A Life in Film (2021), by Alan Rode; Judy Holliday (1982), by Will Holtzman; Close-up on Sunset Boulevard: Billy Wilder, Norma Desmond, and the Dark Hollywood Dream (2002), by Sam Staggs Montgomery Clift: Beautiful Loser (1992), by Barney Hoskyns; Mike Nichols: A Life (2021), by Mark Harris; IMDBPro.com; Wikipedia.com; Movies Mentioned:  Scarface (1932), starring George Raft, Paul Muni, Ann Dvorak, and Boris Karloff; Dead End (1937), starring Silvia Sidney, Joel McCrea, Humphrey Bogart, Wendy Barrie, and Claire Trevor; The Maltese Falcon (1941), starring Humphrey Bogart, Mary Astor, Peter Lorre, Sydney Greenstreet, Elisha Cook, Jr, and Lee Patrick  The Maltese Falcon (1931), starring Ricardo Cortez and Bebe Daniels; High Sierra (1941), starring Humphrey Bogart, Ida Lupino, Joan Leslie, Alan Curtis, Cornel Wilde, Arthur Kennedy, Willie Best, Elisabeth Risdon, and Henry Travers; His Girl Friday (1940), starring Cary Grant, Rosalind Russell, and Ralph Bellamy; Twentieth Century (1934), starring John Barrymore and Carole Lombard; Mildred Pierce (1945), starring Joan Crawford, Ann Blyth, Jack Carson, Zachary Scott, Eve Arden, Bruce Bennett, and Lee Patrick;  Sunset Boulevard (1950), starring Gloria Swanson, William Holden, Erich von Stroheim, and Nancy Olson;    From Here To Eternity (1953); starring Burt Lancaster, Deborah Kerr, Montgomery Clift, Frank Sinatra, Donna Reed, and Ernest Borgnine; Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf (1966), starring Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, George Segal, and Sandy Dennis; Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969), starring Paul Newman, Robert Redford, and Katharine Ross;#023: "I COULDA BEEN A CONTENDER!" --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.

Legend has it that when Jean Arthur walked out of Columbia Studios for the very last time, she shouted "I'm free! I'm free!" If it didn't happen that way, well, Jean had her own habit of stretching the truth so The Old Movie Lady thinks it's okay. She was the unusual character with the quirky voice who became a star in her mid-thirties (shhh!) and appeared in a string of classics like Mr Deeds Goes to Town, The Devil and Miss Jones, Mr Smith Goes to Washington, The More the Merrier. and You Can't Take It With You. But how did she get there, and what lead to Jean's ecstatic departure from Harry Cohn's studio? Find out that and more, in this special episode of OML, this is Close Up: Jean Arthur.

Dana and Tom with returning guest, Kieran B, discuss the classic Western, Shane (1953): directed by George Stevens, written by AB Guthrie Jr, music by Victor Young, starring Alan Ladd, Jean Arther, Van Heflin, and Jack Palance.Plot Summary: "Shane" (1953), directed by George Stevens, is a poignant exploration of morality, redemption, and the inevitable clash between civilization and the untamed frontier. Set against the sweeping vistas of Wyoming, "Shane" introduces us to the titular stranger, played with mesmerizing intensity by Alan Ladd.A mysterious and stoic figure, Shane becomes embroiled in the conflict between homesteaders and a powerful cattle baron, personified by the menacing Jack Wilson (Jack Palance). At the heart of the narrative is the Starrett family, whose lives are forever altered by Shane's arrival. The nuanced performances of Van Heflin and Jean Arthur as Joe and Marian Starrett lend emotional depth to the film, portraying the struggles of ordinary pioneers caught in the crossfire of progress and greed.Stevens' directorial prowess is evident in every frame, as he skillfully captures the stark beauty of the landscape while delving into the complex dynamics of human relationships. The film's iconic moments, such as the unforgettable gunfight in the saloon and the poignant farewell scene, are elevated by Loyal Griggs' cinematography and the haunting score by Victor Young.

A special episode of Films that I Own That I Haven't Watched Yet, recorded shortly after Christmas last year (so only took me the best part of a year to edit and upload!) Four films, all linking from one to the next - so not chosen at random.The first Mr Smith Goes To Washington (1939) - from director Frank Capra and starring James Stewart (who would later work together on Its A Wonderful Life), Jean Arthur and Claude Rains - a political comedy drama in which Stewart plays a newly appointed Senator who is battling a corrupt political system. Then, I watch and review the festive romantic comedy The Shop Around The Corner (1940) - another James Stewart movie, a romantic comedy directed by Ernst Lubitsch in which Stewart plays alongside Margaret Sullivan as two employees working in a leathergoods shop, who dispite loathing each otrher in person are actually falling in love via anonymous letters.Film 3 is You've Got Mail. (1998) which sees Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks star in a Nora Ephron retelling of the Shop Around the Corner, for the digital age, as Meg Ryan plays a small book shop owner who is put out of business by the book store chain owner, Hanks, but again, via anonymous emails they strike up a loving relationshipFinally, film 4 is Nora Ephron's whimsical remake of the classic TV Series Bewtitched, in which Will Farrell plays a fading TV star trying to boost his career by relaunching a classic TV show (Bewtitched) by casting unknown actress (and actual witch) played by Nicole Kidman.

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with Sara Karloff, Daughter of Legendary Master of Horror, Boris Karloff About Harvey's guest: Today's special guest, Sara Karloff, is the only child of one of the greatest and most beloved cinematic legends of all time – the master of horror, Boris Karloff.   Although this brilliant British actor made 174 movies and demonstrated remarkable versatility, in films like “The Criminal Code”, “Scarface”, “The Public Defender”, “Five Star Final”, ”The Lost Patrol”, “The House of Rothschild”, and “The Body Snatcher”,  he is most definitely best remembered for his iconic roles in such horror classics as  “Frankenstein”, “Bride of Frankenstein”, “Son of Frankenstein”, “The Mummy”, “The Old Dark House”, “The Black Room”, “The Black Cat” and “The Raven”.   He appeared in many television shows, and starred in 3 TV series of his own: “Thriller”, “Colonel March” and “The Veil”.    And who can ever forget his portrayal of the Grinch in the classic animated Christmas special, “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”, for which he won a Grammy Award.   Aside from his iconic work on film and television, he appeared in dozens of radio shows and stage productions, including the role of “Captain Hook” in Peter Pan on Broadway opposite Jean Arthur.  And he earned a Tony award nomination for his performance on Broadway opposite Julie Harris, in “The Lark”.  He also made over 20 children's recordings for Cademon Records.    And of course, his instantly recognizable voice inspired the 1962 hit song by Bobby Pickett, “The Monster Mash”.   He was a charter member of the Screen Actor's Guild, and he's one of the very few stars to have been awarded TWO stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame: one for his work in movies, and one for his work on television.  And in 1997, the U.S. Postal Service honoured him as Frankenstein's Monster and the Mummy in its "Classic Monster Movie Stamps" series.  For more interviews and podcasts go to: https://www.harveybrownstoneinterviews.com/ https://www.karloff.com/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100052877307097 #SaraKarloff   #harveybrownstoneinterviews 

There's Sometimes a Buggy says hello to 2023 and goodbye to Acteur Jean Arthur with three movies by three auteurs (Virginia Van Upp, Billy Wilder, and George Stevens): The Impatient Years (1944), A Foreign Affair (1948), and Shane (1953). Elise decides in real time that The Impatient Years, a sour mid-40s comedy of remarriage, is a great comedy because it's not very funny (using another Shakespeare reference to get there). We discuss the geopolitical context of Wilder's remarkable A Foreign Affair, agreeing that Arthur's persona in it has nothing to do with Capra; and George Stevens' leftist de-bunking of certain myths of the Western genre in Shane. And speaking of Shakespeare, in Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto we revisit a Gen X classic that neither of us had seen in about 20 years, Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juilet, which prompts Elise to perceive the resemblance between Leonardo DiCaprio and Joan Crawford.  Time Codes: 0h 1m 00s:        THE IMPATIENT YEARS (1944) [dir.

Seiter's The Lady Takes a Chance (both 1943), that Arthur made at the height of her stardom and glamour, when she was in her early 40s - at which point she retired from movies. (Though not quite yet, or permanently, as we'll see in the final episode.) We discuss the different ways Arthur smolders with co-stars Joe McCrea and John Wayne; George Stevens' way with smutty comedy; the effect of the Production Code on onscreen eroticism; and Arthur's particular brand of comedic sex appeal. How did we end up talking about sex so much in a Jean Arthur episode, after establishing that she's "not that kind" of star? That's one of the mysteries of her persona!  Time Codes: 0h 1m 00s:        THE MORE THE MERRIER (1943) [dir. George Stevens] 0h 53m 33s:      A LADY TAKES A CHANCE (1943) [dir. William A.

This episode of our Jean Arthur Acteurist Oeuvre-view provides us with two examples of Hollywood leftism to discuss: a Norman Krasna department store comedy directed by Sam Wood, The Devil and Miss Jones (1941), and a comedy of ideas directed by George Stevens, The Talk of the Town (1942). We discuss the way The Devil and Miss Jones portrays political radicalism and the difficulty of labor organizing within the framework of a Hollywood fairy tale; and the marriage of moral and intellectual debate to an unconventional, utopic household arrangement in The Talk of the Town.  Time Codes: 0h 1m 00s:        THE DEVIL AND MISS JONES (1941) [dir.

This week's Jean Arthur Acteurist Oeuvre-view episode is a directed-by-Wesley Ruggles double feature of disparate genres: the bigamy farce Too Many Husbands and the epic Western Arizona (both 1940). Although the films, both with screenplays by Ruggles' frequent collaborator Claude Binyon, interrogate marriage and gender respectively, one ends with the reassertion of patriarchal authority, while the other... fails to stick to its (or her) guns. We talk about Ruggles' special version of the romantic comedy triangle, Jean Arthur's erotic face journeys, and the limits of Hollywood's tolerance for gender nonconformity in female stars.  Time Codes: 0h 1m 00s:        TOO MANY HUSBANDS [dir.

In this week's Acteurist Oeuvre-view episode we arrive at arguably Jean Arthur's biggest year of stardom, 1939, with her appearance opposite Cary Grant in Only Angels Have Wings, Howard Hawks' ode to male professionalism, and her iconic performance in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, opposite Jimmy Stewart. We do our best to get at the essences of Hawks and Capra and consider whether Arthur can embody both the Hawksian and the Capra woman. And in our Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto segment, we discuss Jacques Rivette's Love on the Ground (1984) as a kind of inversion of his surrealist classic Celine and Julie Go Boating.    Time Codes: 0h 1m 00s:        ONLY ANGELS HAVE WINGS (1939) [dir.

In our Jean Arthur Acteurist Oeuvre-view this week, we look at two of Arthur's best-known comedies, Easy Living (1937), directed by Mitchell Leisen, with a screenplay by Preston Sturges, and You Can't Take It With You (1938), directed by Frank Capra. Dave explains why Jean Arthur's performance in Easy Living is his all-time favourite comedy performance by an actress. (Hint: it involves a pig called "Wafford.") We ponder Arthur's transformation into a glamorous romantic lead, even as she retains her (slightly off-kilter) ordinary person qualities, and the contrasting comic visions of Sturges and Capra. Then, in our Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto segment, we discuss our second double feature of Tod Browning's Dracula and Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula, the subject of our 2019 Halloween episode. This time around we find a lot to say about Coppola's Dracula as a Dionysian Christ figure who can lead Winona Ryder out of the death-in-life of civilization.  Time Codes: 0h 1m 00s:        EASY LIVING (1937) [dir.

This podcast is dedicated to Edward Delgado, who past away in August of this year and he is the father of Darren, Kevin, Dj, and Penny. They talk about his favorite Shane from 1953, starring Alan Ladd, Jean Arthur, and Jack Palance. Enjoy!! Also apologies for the audio issues because this podcast is broken up into two parts. Thank you.

Continuing our series of posthumous interviews, Cinema60 summons up Andrew Sarris from beyond the grave to talk about one of his favorite films: The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. Best known for having popularized the auteur theory to the English speaking world, Sarris was a powerhouse film critic in the 1960s who wrote primarily for The Village Voice. In this episode, Bart and Jenna discuss Sarris' career and his unique voice in the world of film criticism before they get lost in a tangle of wildly differing opinions on the John Ford film of the hour. See, Jenna rides into town with a specific view on how things should be going down in this film, while Bart, with decades of teaching and rewatching experience, defends its honor in a more traditional way. Then Lee Marvin gets shot in the crossfire and everything really goes to hell!
