Director Norman Jewison splices incisive social commentary into this thrilling police procedural with the help of Haskell Wexler's vivid cinematography, Quincy Jones's eclectic score, and two indelible lead performances—a career-defining display of seething indignation and moral authority from Poitier and an Oscar-winning masterclass in Method acting from Steiger.

“All your followers are blind, Too much heaven on their minds, It was beautiful but now it's sour, Yes it's all gone sour.”Talking About Jesus Christ Superstar with our guest, editor Lucy DonaldsonFilm editor Lucy Donaldson joins Andy Nelson and Pete Wright to discuss Norman Jewison's bold 1973 musical adaptation Jesus Christ Superstar and share insights from her impressive editing career. From working on acclaimed projects like Ma to recent hits like A Haunting in Venice, Donaldson brings her expert perspective to analyzing what makes this unconventional rock opera work so magnificently on screen.In this entertaining and insightful conversation, Donaldson opens up about her journey in the film industry, from her early days at the National Film and Television School to assisting on major productions at Blumhouse before landing breakthrough editing opportunities. The discussion explores the collaborative nature of film editing, working with directors, and how test screenings help shape the final cut. The conversation then dives deep into Jesus Christ Superstar, examining how Jewison's creative vision of hippie performers telling the Biblical story in the Israeli desert creates a uniquely compelling cinematic experience. From the magnetic performances of Ted Neely as Jesus and Carl Anderson as Judas to the bold editing choices and striking cinematography, the group analyzes what makes this controversial film continue to resonate decades later.With its daring artistic choices, memorable musical numbers, and raw emotional power, Jesus Christ Superstar remains a fascinating piece of cinema that challenges conventional storytelling. Through Donaldson's thoughtful analysis and personal connection to the film, we gain new appreciation for this groundbreaking rock opera that shouldn't work on paper but absolutely triumphs on screen. This engaging discussion with a talented editor offers wonderful insights into both the craft of film editing and the enduring impact of bold artistic vision.Film SundriesWatch the conversation on YouTubeLucy's WebsiteWatch this on Apple or Amazon, or find other places at LetterboxdTheatrical trailerOriginal Material Learn how to support our show and The Next Reel's family of film podcasts by becoming a member.

This week, we can't help but fall victim to la bella luna as Feb2ary Is For Lovers continues with a classic rom-com about how it's impossible not to cheat if you're Italian. It's 1987's Moonstruck, directed by Norman Jewison, written by John Patrick Shanley, and starring Cher, Nicolas Cage, Vincent Gardenia, Olympia Dukakis, Danny Aiello, Julie Bovasso and John Mahoney. The story of a young woman who accidentally falls in love with her fiancé's brother, the movie exudes charm at every turn -- so much so that this little rom-com took home three Oscars in '88, for Cher and Dukakis's performances as well as Original Screenplay for Shanley's script that is funny without being rife with straight-up jokes. There are rich characters here, beset by curses and fatal strains of bad luck, who get laughs not by mugging or ripping one-line zingers but by believing in the seriousness of their tragedies so completely. This is character-driven comedy of the highest order, grounded by the Canadian coziness that Jewison can't help but leave all over the film. Plus: J Mo's got theatrical field reports on both Sonic The Hedgehog 3 and Companion. If you'd like to watch the film before listening along to our discussion, it is one of the more widely available films we have ever covered as Moonstruck is currently streaming in Canada on Amazon Prime, Crave, Starz, Criterion Channel, Tubi and Hoopla at the time of publication. Other works discussed in this episode include Abigail, The Sixth Sense, The Usual Suspects, Identity, Trap, Fargo, The Wedding Singer, Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning: Part One, Mission: Impossible - Fallout, Ocean's Eleven, L.A. Story, Paint, Napoleon Dynamite, ChiefsAholic: A Wolf in Chiefs Clothing, A.I.: Artificial Intelligence, The Fabelmans, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Bicentennial Man, Bottoms and Punch-Drunk Love. Love Month continues next week with another VHS plucked from Hayley's collection as we'll be discussing 1996's Jerry Maguire with Tom Cruise and Renee Zellweger, and will do our best not to get side-tracked discussing the Mission: Impossible franchise but can't promise we won't. Jerry Maguire is currently streaming north of the border on Crave, Starz and for free (with ads) on the CTV app. And of course we're closing out February with a rom-com canon selection, 10 Things I Hate About You. Until then, we'll see you at the movies!!

Welcome to another Cinema Sounds & Secrets Tribute episode! This week Janet, John, (and Pen) explore the life and career of Canadian filmmaker Norman Jewison. Born in 1926 in Toronto, Jewison acted out movies as a boy and was involved in school productions at a young age. He studied at the Royal Conservatory and worked as a radio actor before he began writing, directing, and producing shows for the network CBC. He made his feature film debut in 1962 and began directing shortly after. He's known for films like The Cincinnati Kid (1965), The Russians Are Coming (1966), The Thomas Crown Affair (1968), Fiddler on the Roof (1971), Jesus Christ Superstar (1973), Rollerball (1975), Justice for All (1979), A Soldier's Story (1984), Agnes of God (1985), Moonstruck (1987) The Hurricane (1999), and more, receiving Academy Award nominations for best director three separate times.  To learn more about this episode and others, visit the Official Cinema Sounds & Secrets website.

Norman Jewison es uno de esos nombres que atesora una carrera intachable a pesar de que pocas veces se le incluya dentro de la nómina de los grandes. Quizá no le hiciera falta ya que su mayor premio fue tener una filmografía variada y siempre interesante que supo conectar con el público sin renunciar a un sello de eficacia y calidad bien fuera en un musical, un thriller, un drama racial o una comedia romántica. Jewison fue capaz de todo siendo nominado tres veces al Oscar de mejor dirección (“En el calor de la noche” en 1968, “El violinista en el tejado” en 1972 y “Hechizo de luna” en 1988) de un total de 7 nominaciones. Nunca ganó la estatuilla pero en 1999 le fue concedido el premio honorífico Irving G. Thalberg. Ha muerto a los 97 años dejando un oficio y una clase poco habitual en el cine reciente. Este reportaje pertenece al programa “El Cine de LoQueYoTeDiga” nº 428 (15x13) y fue emitido el 27 de enero de 2024.

Una puntata "speciale" per un film "speciale", musical, ma anche rock, ma anche jazz, toccante, a volte esasperato, ma sempre fedele.Prima di essere distribuito in Italia, il film fu sottoposto al vaglio dell'Osservatore Romano, ma addirittura presentato privatamente a papa Paolo VI, che ne rimase favorevolmente colpito, almeno secondo ciò che Ted Neeley ha affermato in un'intervista di recente. Il pontefice disse al regista: 'Mr. Jewison, non solo apprezzo il vostro film, ma credo che potrà avvicinare ulteriori persone al cristianesimo più di qualsiasi altra cosa in precedenza.'" Per il pontefice, pare che la canzone di Maria Maddalena "I Don't Know How to Love Him" "godesse di una bellezza ispirata".L'Osservatore Romano, all'epoca, aveva smentito quest'anteprima, mentre il Papa non si espresse mai, almeno ufficialmente. Chi di voi, cari ascoltatori, sa dirmi da cosa è stata ispirata la fantastica illustratrice del podcast, @senzarumore ?

This week we lost a truly great film director and Canadian cinema icon Norman Jewison. He has a long history of working on music videos and movie musicals including Fiddler on the Roof and Jesus Christ Superstar. Beyond his musical work he also directed many notable and award winning films including 'In the Heat of the Night' and 'Moonstruck'. So in honour of his passing we are revisiting our Live Movie Musical Commentary of his highly praised film adaption of Fiddler on the Roof! Together in this live commentary, Ryan and Mackenzie explored why this film continues to speak to so many generations and they analyze how Jewison was able to so expertly and cinematically interpret a musical number for the big screen. His work will continually be studied for the years to come and the mentorship he provided will certainly be missed by many aspiring directors. Please listen and enjoy this very special tribute.

Movie Maker Norm Jewison passed away, and the guys paid tribute.

On the version of Hot off the Wire posted Jan. 23 at 7 a.m. CT: MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — Donald Trump is aiming for a commanding victory in New Hampshire, securing a sweep of the first two Republican primary races and making a November rematch with President Joe Biden look likelier than ever. The biggest question is whether Trump's last major rival, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, will be able to eat into his margin or pull off an upset victory Tuesday. Haley has dedicated time and money to New Hampshire, hoping to appeal to its independent-minded electorate. Trump has concentrated on winning decisively enough to effectively end the competitive phase of the primary. All six registered voters of tiny Dixville Notch cast their ballots for Haley in the first results released early Tuesday. CHICAGO (AP) — A man suspected of shooting and killing eight people in suburban Chicago fatally shot himself after a confrontation at a gas station with law enforcement officials in Texas. Police in Joliet said on Facebook late Monday that at about 8:30 p.m. Central time Romeo Nance was located by U.S. Marshals near Natalia, Texas, and that after a confrontation Nance shot himself. Police in Will County in Illinois and the city of Joliet previously said they did not know of a motive for the killings, but said Nance knew the victims. JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli military says that Palestinian militants carried out the deadliest single attack on Israel's forces since the Hamas raid that triggered the war. Twenty-one soldiers were killed. It was a significant setback that could add to mounting calls for a cease-fire. Hours later on Tuesday, the military announced that ground forces had encircled the southern city of Khan Younis. That marked a major advance, but it was unclear how much closer it would bring Israel to defeating Hamas or freeing Israeli hostages as cease-fire talks appear to be gathering pace. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu mourned the soldiers. But he vowed to press ahead until “absolute victory,” even as Israelis are increasingly divided over whether it's possible to both crush Hamas and free scores of captives. KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russian missiles have targeted three Ukrainian cities, including its two biggest, damaging apartment buildings and killing at least six people. The attack came hours after Moscow shunned any deal backed by Kyiv and its Western allies aimed at ending the nearly 2-year-old war. Officials said Tuesday's barrage injured at least 20 people in four districts of Kyiv, the capital. In Kharkiv, in northeast Ukraine, authorities said the onslaught killed five people and injured 42 as the missiles damaged about 30 residential buildings. One death from a missile strike was also reported in Pavlohrad, an eastern industrial city. Analysts say Russia stockpiled missiles at the end of last year to press a winter bombardment campaign. MARIETTA, Ga. (AP) — A judge has ordered court records to be made public in the divorce involving a special prosecutor hired in the Georgia election case against Donald Trump and accused of having an affair with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. The judge says records must be unsealed in the divorce case involving Nathan Wade, whom a defense attorney has alleged is in an inappropriate relationship with Willis. The newly unsealed court records, however, didn't include any references to the affair allegations. The judge put off a final decision on whether Willis will have to sit for questioning in the divorce case but delayed her deposition that had been scheduled for Tuesday. Willis has defended her hiring of Wade. ATLANTA (AP) — Dexter Scott King, the younger son of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King, has died after battling prostate cancer. The King Center in Atlanta says the 62-year-old son of the civil rights leader died in his sleep on Monday at his home in Malibu, California. Named for the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama, where his father once served as pastor, he was just 7 years old when his father was assassinated in 1968. He became chairman of the King Center, where he shepherded his parents' legacy and focused on protecting the King family's intellectual property. The New Hampshire attorney general's office says it is investigating reports of an apparent robocall that used artificial intelligence to mimic President Joe Biden's voice and discourage voters in the state from participating in Tuesday's primary election. Attorney General John Formella said Monday that the recorded message that was sent Sunday appears to be an illegal attempt to disrupt and suppress voting. He says voters should disregard its contents. The apparent attempt at voter suppression using generative AI is one example of what experts warn will make 2024 a year of unprecedented election disinformation around the world. WASHINGTON (AP) — A divided Supreme Court is allowing Border Patrol agents to cut razor wire that Texas installed on the U.S.-Mexico border while a lawsuit over the wire continues. The justices, by a 5-4 vote Monday, granted an emergency appeal from the Biden administration, which has been in an escalating standoff at the border with Texas and had objected to an appellate ruling in favor of the state. The concertina wire is part of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's broader fight with the administration over immigration enforcement. WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court will hear an appeal from Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip, who has steadfastly maintained his innocence and averted multiple attempts by the state to execute him. Glossip was sentenced in a 1997 murder-for-hire of the owner of the motel where he worked. The case will be argued in the fall. Glossip is backed by Republican Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond, who says his life should be spared because he did not get a fair trial. Glossip also has been supported by “Dead Man Walking” actor Susan Sarandon, and his case was featured in a 2017 documentary. WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal officials are recommending that airlines inspect the door plugs on more Boeing 737s after one of the panel blew off a Boeing jet in midflight. The Federal Aviation Administration says airlines should also inspect the panels on an older model, the 737-900ER. Those planes have door plugs that are identical in design to the one that flew off an Alaska Airlines Boeing Max 9 jetliner this month. Boeing said Monday that it supports the FAA action. The plugs are panels that seal holes left for extra doors when the extra doors aren't needed to meet emergency-evacuation standards. A pair of players had record setting nights in the NBA, the Bruins winning streak continues, and third ranked team in men's college basketball gets a career night from one of their guards, to pick up a conference win. CHICAGO (AP) — Hall of Fame second baseman Ryne Sandberg has been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. In a statement released by the Baseball Hall of Fame, the 64-year-old Sandberg says he has started treatment. Sandberg hit .285 with 282 homers, 1,061 RBIs and 344 steals in 16 seasons in the majors. He made his big league debut with Philadelphia in 1981 and appeared in 13 games with the Phillies before he was traded to the Chicago Cubs in January 1982. Sandberg turned into one of the majors' best all-around performers with the Cubs. He made 10 All-Star teams and won nine Gold Gloves. He also was the NL MVP in 1984. CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The Carolina Panthers have promoted Dan Morgan to president of football operations and general manager. Morgan is a former Panthers linebacker. Now he's tasked with turning around the struggling franchise. Morgan spent the past three seasons as Carolina's assistant GM. The Panthers are 31-68 since David Tepper bought the team in 2018, tied with the New York Jets for the worst record in the league in that span. They have not been to the postseason since 2017 and have been criticized for poor trades and draft picks. Morgan replaces Scott Fitterer, who was fired after the season. Patrice Bergeron says he is not making a comeback to the NHL. The former Boston Bruins captain says he is enjoying retirement. Rumors about him returning came after word spread that Bergeron was back on the ice skating. He said his time on the ice is just a weekly gathering of retired players and friends. Bergeron announced his retirement last summer after 19 seasons with the Bruins. He helped them win the Stanley Cup in 2011 and reach the final two more times. NEW YORK (AP) — Filmmaker Norman Jewison has died at 97. The Canadian-born director's work ranged from Doris Day comedies and “Moonstruck” to social dramas such as the Oscar-winning “In the Heat of the Night." Jewison was a three-time Oscar nominee who in 1999 received an honorary Academy Award for lifetime achievement. Throughout his long career, Jewison combined light entertainment with topical films. He also worked on the Cold War spoof “The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming,” the Steve McQueen thriller “The Thomas Crown Affair” and a pair of movies featuring Denzel Washington: the racial drama “A Soldier's Story” and “The Hurricane." Mary Weiss, the lead singer of the 1960s pop group the Shangri-Las, whose hits included “Leader of the Pack,” has died. She was 75. Miriam Linna, founder of Weiss' label, Norton Records, said Sunday that Weiss died Friday in Palm Springs, California. No cause of death was given. Rolling Stone first reported her death Friday. The four members of the Shangri-Las met at school in Queens, New York, and performed at school dances and teen hops. They found enormous success as a pioneering girl group with a tough, working-class image and drama-filled songs of teen dreams and heartbreak. After the group disbanded in 1968, Weiss stayed away from music for four decades. In 2007, she released her solo debut. CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico (AP) — A giraffe named Benito has started a 40-hour road trip to leave the cold and loneliness of Mexico's border city of Ciudad Juarez, and maybe find love and warmth in his new home. He is a tall load, about 16 feet high, with a tarp above so he won't get scared looking out over the top. After a campaign by animal rights activists, the four-year-old giraffe is being taken by truck from a city zoo in Ciudad Juarez to a new, warmer home in Puebla state in central Mexico. It has been a long and lonesome road for Benito. But the Africam Safari park where he is being taken has female giraffes and better weather. —The Associated Press About this program Host Terry Lipshetz is managing editor of the national newsroom for Lee Enterprises.

NOTE: This episode was originally released in October 2020 on patreon.com/reelpolitik, but we've decided to release it for free in light of Norman Jewison's death. We'd already made the first in this two-parter available for free on this very feed here: https://soundcloud.com/reelpolitikpodcast/unlocked-episode-168-jewison-the-mighty-fist-of-liberalism-pt-1. RIP Norman Jewison. ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: Jack and Yair are back with the back half of Norman Jewison's filmography, picking up after F.I.S.T. (1978) with a quick breeze through his 1979-91 filmography, before getting deep into 1991's Other People's Money - a flawed but somewhat incisive portrait of a changing American capitalism starring an electric Danny DeVito as a Gordon Ghekko-type parasite - and Jewison's final film, 2003's The Statement, starring Michael Caine as an escaped Nazi war criminal. Plus - 1998's The Hurricane and the Bob Dylan song that inspired it.

“Game? This wasn't meant to be a game. Never!”James Caan stars as Jonathan E., a legendary athlete in the brutal sport of Rollerball in Norman Jewison's 1975 dystopian sci-fi thriller. With a screenplay by William Harrison based on his short story, Jewison intended the film as a critique of exploitative sports and their dehumanizing effects. However, audiences were enthralled by the violent future sport depicted. Rollerball entered a crowded field of 1970s dystopian sci-fi, alongside classics like A Clockwork Orange. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue the 1976 Hugo Awards Best Dramatic Presentation Nominees series with a conversation about Rollerball.Here's a hint at what we talk about:We discuss Rollerball as an early example of dystopian sports cinema, designed to make a point about authoritative control. Though we find flaws, like some pacing issues, we agree that Rollerball was prescient in its corporate allegory. We also touch on the fascinating real-world attempts to turn the fictional sport of Rollerball into a reality.Here are a few other points in our discussion: The minimalist performance of a subdued James Caan – does it work? John Houseman as the chilling corporate overlord Appreciation for the practical stunt work (and that they recognized it in the credits!) How audiences often miss the point of satirical films The abysmal 2002 remake In the end, we find Rollerball an imperfect but thought-provoking 1970s sci-fi film.

En esta ocasión abordamos dos películas de Ciencia ficción de la década de los 70, una de las épocas más importantes cinematograficamente. En concreto vamos a hablar de Rollerball y de La carrera de la muerte del año 2000, contando el porqué son relevantes, señalando sus influencias (también dentro del contexto histórico), curiosidades y —en definitiva— lo divertido que es que Kung Fu se encuentre con Rambo.

In our 3rd-last episode, we're talking about a cynical, sci-fi movie about a made-up sport called Rollerball. Norman Jewison's dour 1975 film juggles a lot of balls and comments on many social issues (as Jewison often did in the films he directed), but he didn't draw either of us into his take on a dystopian future. James Caan mostly just mutters and sulks. He's not at his tough-guy best, although at least he and the stunt performers are convincing when they're playing this ultra-violent game. We agreed that the picture is absolutely well-made, showing a 2018 that was grounded in reality, not The Jetsons. It's just not a picture we ever care to see again. So instead of gleefully exploding trees with a hand cannon, why not be true to yourself and buck fascist authority figures, no matter who gets hurt? And while you're doing that, we'll be over here trying to figure out Rollerball.   Oh, and for the record, we've covered 3 poker movies on this channel, not just 1 or 2: Rounders, Casino Royale and Molly's Game.   Our email address is scoringatthemovies@gmail.com, while our Twitter handles are @moviefiend51 and @scoringatmovies.

L., Taylor, M. Abstract: Alcohol is one of the most commonly used substances and frequently abused, yet little is known about the neural underpinnings driving variability in inhibitory control performance after ingesting alcohol. This study was a single-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized design with participants (N=48) completing three study visits. At each visit participants received one of three alcohol doses; namely, a placebo dose (equivalent Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) = 0.00%), a low dose of alcohol (target BAC=0.04%), or a moderate dose of alcohol (target BAC=0.08%). To measure inhibitory control, participants completed a Go/No-go task paradigm twice during each study visit, once immediately before dosing and once after, while their brain activity was measured with Time-Domain functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (TD-fNIRS). BAC and subjective effects of alcohol were also assessed. We report decreased behavioral performance for the moderate dose of alcohol, but not the low or placebo dose. We observed right lateralized inhibitory prefrontal activity during go-no-go blocks, consistent with prior literature. Using standard and novel metrics of lateralization, we were able to significantly differentiate between all doses. Lastly, we demonstrate that these metrics are not only related to behavioral performance during inhibitory control, but also provide complementary information to the legal gold standard of intoxication (i.e. BAC).

Fiddler's Journey to the Big Screen (2022) captures a bygone era of early television and blockbuster Hollywood musicals. It also shines a light on the incredible career of fellow filmmaker Norman Jewison.  Jewison had critical success over more than three decades, but his crowning achievement might be bringing the famous musical Fiddler on the Roof to the big screen. Legendary film critic Pauline Kael called Fiddler the most powerful movie musical ever made.  Award-winning and Oscar nominated filmmaker Daniel Raim, the director of Fiddler's Journey to the Big Screen, joins us to share the unlikely story behind this iconic American film.

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's a-Moonstruck, a film which is not exactly subtle in its depiction of Italian-American culture but is at least witty, well-written and full of heart, thanks to its script by John Patrick Shanley. This week, Pop Screen closes out its Oscars month by inviting playwright Sarah Hayton back on to discuss Norman Jewison's 1987 film, which won Cher a Best Actress award. Frankly, she's so good in this you overlook the fact that her and Nicolas Cage are, on paper, the weirdest screen couple in the history of cinema. Digressions include the infamous video for 'If I Could Turn Back Time', both of our guest hosts being surprised by Jewison's classy back catalogue, the twist ending in Shanley's last film Wild Mountain Thyme, the world-class Simpsons joke this film inspired, and disses on at least two Ridley Scott films, one of which hasn't even been shot yet. It's certainly value for money, not least since this is a free episode.

When “Fiddler on the Roof” opened on Broadway in 1964, many thought that this Yiddish-inspired portrait of Jewish shtetl life in Tsarist Russia would be a huge flop. But audiences flocked to the musical, and its songbook soon entered the popular lexicon. Hollywood set its sights on a film version and United Artists signed the well-respected, but hardly household name, Norman Jewison to direct. The fascinating behind-the-scenes story of what happened next is the subject of Oscar-nominated director Daniel Raim's (“The Man on Lincoln's Nose”) delightful new documentary “Fiddler's Journey to the Big Screen”, which has its world premiere at the upcoming Palm Springs International Film Festival (Jan 6 – 17, 2022).   Mike and Ken's conversation with Daniel Raim marks the first in a series of interviews they will be having with documentary directors as part of a special Top Docs partnership with the 33rd annual Palm Springs International Film Festival. A formative musical and movie-going experience for both of them, Mike and Ken were very excited to chat with Daniel about Fiddler. What was the shocker that Jewison told the studio head that might have cost him this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? How did the filmmakers try to be authentic to the Jewish lived experience and also appeal to a general audience? And casting Topol or Zero Mostel as Tevye? How did Jewison make the call? Find out the answers to these questions and more, plus discover what three albums Mike's parents had in the house when he was growing up. Please join us for this lively conversation.

Sounds Of Hope with Becky Jewison (09/30/2021) - The President of A Better Way for Genesis stops by to tell Kelley & Ray about this fun, free & important event!

Author Ira Wells spent three years working on "Norman Jewison: A Director's Life." A full year of that was pouring over Jewison's papers, annotated scripts and other manuscripts at Victoria College at the University of Toronto -- where Wells is an assistant professor of literature.He writes that Jewison's 24 feature films "could just as easily have been a dozen, or three or none." Despite directing two films -- "In the Heat of the Night" and "Moonstruck"-- to Best Picture Oscar wins, landing the next film deal never got any easier.  It helped that behind Jewison's nice guy, all-Canadian persona, beats the heart of a lion. As Burt Reynolds once mused, "He must be able to kick the shit out of people in meetings."Jewison's other talent was to be the director he needed to be in relation to the talent at hand. He could be, as Wells describes him, "a nurturing father figure, a wise older brother, on old fling." Sometimes he was all three on the same film, as he was on the set of "Agnes of God."Wells goes through Jewison's diverse catalogue -- "The Russians Are Coming...," "The Thomas Crown Affair," "Fiddler on the Roof," "Rollerball," "A Soldier's Story" and "The Hurricane," among others. He takes us through the director's early days at the CBC in Toronto as well as directing superstars such as Judy Garland and Harry Belafonte in American television. He addresses Jewison's passion for mentoring the next generations of filmmakers with the Canadian Film Centre.The title of Jewison's own 2004 autobiography is "This Terrible Business Has Been Good to Me" and he meant it. As Wells writes, "The image that emerges from the thousands of pages of letters, contracts, memos, production schedules, casting notes, draft screenplays and countless other documents is of a director fighting for every frame of his vision."

Her banter with Cher was among the film's highlights, including a scene in which Dukakis scolded her daughter during a kitchen dissection of her love life. “Your life's going down the toilet,” Dukakis said in her throaty voice. At another point, she tells Cher it is good she did not love her fiance. “When you love them, they drive you crazy because they know they can.” “Moonstruck,” considered one of Hollywood's great romantic comedies, won three Academy Awards, including Cher as best actress, and was nominated in three other categories, including best picture. It also was one of the highest-grossing films of 1987. In accepting her Oscar as best supporting actress in April 1988, when her cousin was battling to become the Democratic Party's presidential nominee, she thanked Jewison, her husband and a few others. She then raised the golden statuette over her head and shouted to the worldwide TV audience, “OK, Michael, let's go.” Michael Dukakis won the nomination but lost badly in the general election to Republican George H.W. Bush. Olympia Dukakis embraced liberal views like her cousin, advocating for causes including women's rights, gay rights and the environment. Dukakis was born in Lowell, Massachusetts, on June 20, 1931 and continued to act into her 80s. Referring to becoming a movie star at an age when many actresses have a hard time finding good roles, Dukakis told the Guardian newspaper in 2012, “Who knows how that happened? Chance, fate or a bit of both. But I'm very glad I did ‘Moonstruck.' It meant that I woke up the next day and was finally able to pay the bills.” Dukakis said she enjoyed her fame after “Moonstruck.” “The fun part is that people pass me on the street and yell lines from my movies,” she told the Los Angeles Times in 1991. “For ‘Moonstruck' they say, ‘You're life is going down the toilet.'” Her TV appearances included playing a transgender landlady in the 1993 miniseries “Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City” and its 1998 and 2001 follow-ups. Other films included “Cloudburst” (2011) playing a foul-mouthed lesbian, “Away from Her” (2006) with Julie Christie, “The Event” (2003), “Better Living” (1998) with Roy Scheider, “Never Too Late” (1996) with Cloris Leachman, and “Dad” (1989) with Jack Lemmon and Ted Danson. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

The first of two episodes on Canadian filmmaker Norman Jewison - this one covering In The Heat of the Night, Fiddler On The Roof, Jesus Christ Superstar, Rollerball and F.I.S.T., his films from 1967-78. Jewison was a fine filmmaker if not a great one, and used his cinematic podium to espouse agreeable liberal values in a far less didactic way than quintessential "message" directors like Stanley Kramer. Part two, which goes up to his final film, The Statement (2003) is available now @ patreon.com/reelpolitik

Subscribe and hear the full thing @ patreon.com/reelpolitik. It's episode 169! Nice!!! Jack and Yair are back with the back half of Norman Jewison's filmography, picking up after F.I.S.T. (1978) with a quick breeze through his 1979-91 filmography, before getting deep into 1991's Other People's Money - a flawed but somewhat incisive portrait of a changing American capitalism starring an electric Danny DeVito as a Gordon Ghekko-type parasite - and Jewison's final film, 2003's The Statement, starring Michael Caine as an escaped Nazi war criminal. Plus - 1998's The Hurricane and the Bob Dylan song that inspired it.

Is it safe to get our kids back into sports and activities? Will college sports return to normal this fall? Dr. David Jewison from the U of M joins Cory to discuss those topics and more.

Because it’s more of a courtroom movie than a sports flick, The Hurricane makes for a curious choice for our 39th Scoring At The Movies episode. Denzel Washington is outstanding in director Norman Jewison’s penultimate film and the rest of the cast is certainly fine, but we had issues with how they presented Rubin Carter’s checkered history. He was wrongly imprisoned, but also wrongly depicted. We could have used a lot less of the Canadians (doesn’t everyone feel that way?) and we’d rather have had more prickly Rubin instead of (mostly) saintly Rubin. So this one is far more about racial bigotry and America’s messed-up justice system than it is about boxing, but… Well, just hit that play button on the ‘Cane 'cast to find out so much more. Pedantry Alert: The 4th movie we’ve covered this year that Ryan hadn’t previously seen before doing it for the podcast was Creed II. Also, When They See Us was actually released this year, not last year. Also also, when talking about the bleak palette, Ryan wasn’t very clear about saying “a prison AND Canada”, not “a prison IN Canada”.

Host Steve Mazan is joined by comedian Paul Morrissey to discuss 1967's Norman Jewison racially-charged Best Picture winner "In the Heat of the Night"   Is this even the best film of 1967 let alone #75 ever? Did Poitier nail the "Mr Tibbs" line? Is the real racial injustice Steiger winning Best Actor? Did Quincy Jones metaphorically slap Sam the Sham in the face? What was worse the police corruption or the police incompetence? All these questions and more get answered on this week's Mazan Movie Club podcast.  "In the Heat of the Night" on IMDb Paul Morrissey online Steve Mazan on Facebook Home of the Mazan Movie Club Website for Corporate Comedian Steve Mazan    

"Do you play?" Norman Jewison had worked with Steve McQueen on the film The Cincinnati Kid, so it was natural for him to immediately think of McQueen in the title role of The Thomas Crown Affair when he got the script. Luckily for him, McQueen was interested, as the part was vastly different from other types of people he’d played in the past. He worked opposite Faye Dunaway in her second major leading role, and the two created some amazing screen chemistry. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue celebrating films from 1968 celebrating their 50th anniversaries as we kick off our 2018 Movies and Their Remakes series with Jewison’s The Thomas Crown Affair. We talk about the vibe of the film and look at how it fits in the late 60s, both in the world of cinema and in the world in general. We look at McQueen and Dunaway and how well they work together, even if the script by Alan Trustman seems a bit simple. We look at the jazzy way Jewison put the film together with cinematographer Haskell Wexler and editor Hal Ashby. We also discuss Pablo Ferro’s amazing contribution to the film through the magic of the multi-screen images seen throughout. And we talk about the film and how it was largely filmed in Boston, the first major film to do so. It’s a fun film that is a breeze to watch even if it’s a bit light on content, we still have a great time talking about it. So check it out then tune in!

Entrega número 200 de La Gran Evasión, un número redondo para una partida redonda, en 1965, Norman Jewison se hizo cargo del proyecto The Cincinnati Kid, tras el despido fulminante de Sam Peckinpah, El Rey del juego es mucho más que una partida de Poker descubierto, es un tratado sobre el Éxito y el Fracaso, un gran retrato de esa batalla, de esa línea tan delgada que separa esos dos mundos, como siempre, veremos que una cosa es sufrir una derrota y otra fracasar, ahí aparece el honor en letras mayusculas, la amistad, el odio y sobre todo el…. Amor…que, quizás te espere en la esquina, aun después de una traición… A través de un enfrentamiento inevitable entre un veterano y un joven aspirante, entre lo nuevo y lo viejo, el intento por destronar al rey, una lucha tan antigua como el mundo, a través de esa batalla, recorremos la fauna de los Estados Unidos en plena depresión, con el Jazz y el Poker como el lubricante que mueve el mecanismo, un juego de resistencia, física y sobre todo mental, en el que el objetivo es despojar a tu adversario de toda sus fichas, de todo su dinero, de toda su confianza, de toda su moral. Una reflexiva historia de Richard Jessup, con un elenco de actores simplemente extraordinario. Por esta partida maratoniana pasan unos secundarios de lujo, Karl Malden, Genio, Lady Fingers, Lady Manitas una Joan Blondell magnifica, Ann Margret, esa Melba libidinosa e irresistible, la dulce y cándida Christian, Tuesday Weld, Rip Torn, Slade… Pero sobre todo el Rey del Juego es Edward Goldenberg Robinson, un actor formidable, una presencia imponente, capaz de dominar la escena con un simple gesto, una figura frágil, casi abatido y superado por el tiempo, y a la vez elegante, seguro, inteligente, invencible…su duelo con otro monstruo de la pantalla, con Steve McQueen, es la película, dos generaciones, dos formas de interpretar, que se fusionan con sus personajes, el novato arrogante que quiere desbancar al veterano, el cachorro prepotente que quiere expulsar del trono al viejo león, una obra exquisita, que decanta toda una época, la depresión y como salir adelante en plena crisis, una apuesta a una sola carta. Toda la película se presenta como un gran combate de boxeo, administrando el enfrentamiento final, con la insoportable espera de cada púgil hasta ese duelo final, Jewison juega con esa espera, marca el tempo y se toma su pausa, para mostrarnos los motivaciones y el interior de cada personaje, tanto de los dos protagonistas, como de toda esa pléyade de secundarios, todos son definidos con maestría, vemos las miserias y las ambiciones de cada personaje. La filmación de la partida está magníficamente realizada, no te pierdes en ningún momento aunque no sepas las reglas del juego, controlando la tensión y la intriga, perfecto Norman Jewison y el montaje. Acompañada por una grandísima banda sonora de Lalo Schifrin, la melodía define el ambiente y las situaciones, retratando a la ciudad del Jazz, con un estupendo homenaje a la generación anterior, a los viejos precursores, aparece Cab Calloway interpretando al Cisne, también escuchamos a la gran Sweet Emma Barret tocando una pieza de blues. Queda perfectamente retratada la Nueva Orleans de los años 30, una ciudad deprimida, sucia, desalentadora, con los negros honrando a la muerte celebrando la vida, cantando y bailando de camino al sepulcro, el director nos lleva por los recovecos de la ciudad, esas timbas ilegales, las peleas de gallos, las mansiones de los ricos, los burdeles, siempre bajo la presencia del dinero, montones de sucios y arrugados billetes, una oportunidad de Fama y Fortuna para salir del fango, un niño negro, un limpiabotas que vive en las calles, es la prueba. El Rey del Juego es una película de miradas, las de Steve McQueen y Edward G. Robinson, las que se dedican Lancey y Kid, memorables, los padres de Christian cuando los visita el chico de la gran ciudad, también lo dicen todo con esos ojos inocentes. Las miradas de Kid al Genio cuando se da cuenta de que lo está ayudando en al partida, la fiereza y el rencor que desprenden los de Slade, el sexo y la tragedia que nos cuentan los de Melba…..Todos los personajes tienen características psicológicas perfectamente definidas, todo gira en torno a desbancar al campeón, la delgada línea entre el éxito y el fracaso en una última carta, no hay premio para el segundo, el numero uno se lo lleva todo, el amor queda fuera de la partida…el honor y el ímpetu por ganar pueden nublar tu juicio. La timba de la Torre de Radiopolis está atestada de humo, desprende aromas de Jazz y los billetes se amontonan en el tapete, mientras José Miguel Moreno reparte las últimas cartas, Gervi Navio y César Bardés se miran sin pestañear…..habrá que aceptar el envite para ver ese proyecto de escalera…. Nos vamos con la escena final, unido al Minnie de Moocher de Calloway y de bonus track, os dejamos otra pieza de la banda sonara de Schifrin, un tema en honor al Genio, Shooter. Gervi Navío.

Allen and Chris strap on the studded gloves….. 1975’s Rollerball, directed by Norman Jewison and starring James Caan as the fictional sport’s superstar player Jonathan E, delivered not only action but a thoughtful examination of individuality and freedom. Cut to 2002 and John McTiernan, director of Die Hard and Predator, two of the greatest action flicks ever, helms the remake. Surely this will, at the very least, deliver on visceral thrills….right? In this episode -the dumbest criticism of old movies -James Caan: a manly man -LL Cool J and American Pie: the college years -The shadowy Rebecca Romijn–Stamos -Jean Reno: the man behind the man, or something -Nielson?

Edición 177 de La Gran Evasión, 10/4/2018, esta noche de tormenta veremos que la voluntad del hombre es inconquistable, asistiremos a la forja de una leyenda, de un mito, de Luke el indomable, un excelso Paul Newman en la obra cumbre de Stuart Rosenberg, La Leyenda del Indomable, 1967. Magnifica parábola este Cool Hand Luke, todo un análisis de esos soldados que regresaron de la segunda guerra mundial y se trajeron la guerra con ellos, una premonición de la desconexión con el sistema, que llegaría en los años sesenta, pero la película es mucho más, de fondo, deja profundas reflexiones: Preferir la muerte a vivir entre grilletes, el Sacrificio que conlleva una autentica amistad, el Precio a pagar por tus Principios, la Dignidad del ser humano, el Cruel y Brutal sistema penitenciario, la Religión, la Forja de los mitos, esos Mártires que todos necesitamos, para no rendirnos, para no olvidar lo que somos, hombres, ni bestias, ni esclavos, simplemente, Hombres. La película de Rosenberg se mueve por el gran guión de Donn Pearce y Frank Pierson, basado en la novela, con trazos autobiográficos, de éste último, con emoción y cine, transita por la voluntad de Luke a través de escenas míticas, que ya forman parte de la historia del cine, la de los huevos, el alquitranado de la carretera, la llegada de la madre, el símbolo fascista y represor de ese guardián con gafas de espejo, el sadismo del Capitán, el sometimiento de la voluntad a partir de la rutina, de las reglas… Luke es un canto rodado, un insurrecto por genética, su obstinación es admirada por los reclusos y también rechazada, lo convierten en un ídolo, al que adoran primero y repudian después, otra alegoría cristiana. Para ser una leyenda, un mártir, debe haber un sacrificio, una entrega, unos “milagros”, que son sus hazañas… Pocos confían en ese espíritu, incluso los espectadores nos creemos su rendición, cuando lo atrapan por segunda vez, su sometimiento, tras la escena de la zanja, terrible, literalmente cava su tumba y se sepulta, su cuerpo se rinde pero su alma…NO. Se convierte en un mártir y tiene sus apóstoles, su acólito, Dragline, George Kennedy, su misión será mantener vivo el recuerdo de Luke, de un tipo indomable que realizó prodigios increíbles, y que sobre todo, era su amigo. Paul Newman está pletórico, nos brinda una gran interpretación, el Oscar se lo arrebató Rod Steiger por En el Calor de la noche (Jewison), pero Luke merecía la estatuilla, ese laconismo con el que se expresa, sólo habla para sentenciar, brillante. Consigue transmitir esa terquedad con su presencia, con su actitud ante el poder y la autoridad, fue ascendido y condecorado en la guerra, pero también degradado a soldado raso, ante alguna injusticia que no permitió, es un rebelde que no sabe que hacer ni como actuar en el mundo civil, siempre fuera de lugar, incapaz de acatar las reglas, los corsés sociales. Romper unos parquímetros le acarrean dos años de trabajos forzados… Los secundarios, vistos hoy en día son tremendos, Hopper, Dean Stanton, Strother Martin, George Kennedy, a destacar el breve, pero inolvidable papel, de la madre de Luke, Arletta, la gran Jo Van Fleet, una actriz de teatro inmensa, que en apenas unos minutos deja marca. La película realiza una clara denuncia de la crueldad penitenciaria, de los abusos de poder, de la vileza de los poderosos, el despotismo, la arbitrariedad y el sadismo de los jefes, acrecentado con ese “Jefe, ¿puedo...?” Todos deben pedir permiso, para secarse el sudor, para quitarse la camisa, para beber agua, hasta para mear, una humillación constante. La fotografía de Conrad L. Hall es muy importante, la narración se nutre de esa estética realista, notamos el calor, el sofocante calor, los sudores, los mosquitos, la atmósfera opresiva del barracón, los atardeceres llenos de simbolismo y libertad, con las siluetas de hombres engrilletados, esos crepúsculos desde una carretera interminable, geniales, ademas utiliza muchos ángulos ingeniosos, ver la fuga a través del reflejo de las gafas del jefe, las tomas desde arriba de Luke en la escena de los huevos, prácticamente un Cristo crucificado… El ritmo es pausado, pero cuando la historia lo requiere, salimos de la rutina y respiramos con los prodigios de Luke, ahí el montaje y el ritmo se aceleran, como en la primera fuga y su astucia para despistar a los sabuesos, otro golpe más a la conciencia, pues se siente más la muerte de un animal que la de un preso. Todo el conjunto está apoyado en una genial banda sonora de Lalo Schifrin, mezclando esos temas de guitarra y banjo, llenos de sentimiento y dolor, canciones populares del sur, de esos desposeídos, y las mezcla, con la emoción del uso de instrumentos de viento. Schifrin era un auténtico maestro en melodías. Bonus Track: Os dejamos como bonus un par de maravillas, otro tema de la banda sonora de Schifrin, el del concurso de comer huevos duros y una versión del Cotton Field, a cargo de la Creedence Clearwater Revival, que aparece en su memorable disco "Willy And The Poor Boys" (1969). Disfrutad de la libertad. -Egg Eating Contest -Cotton Fields Huimos del campo de trabajos forzados de Radiopolis, despistando a los sabuesos…..José Miguel Moreno, Gervi Navío y moviendo astutamente las ramas del cine con un cordelito, nuestro crítico, César Bardés Gervasio Navío Flores.

Randy Fox returns to the podcast and we resume our discussion of the science fiction films of the 1970's. It's been over a year since the two of us sat down for a long talk about the incredible SF movies made before STAR WARS warped the genre out of shape but it felt like it was just last week. One reason for that is our topic in this episode is an under sung classic that appeals to the more mature in the audience than to the under twenty set. As people who first encountered ROLLERBALL as kids we can attest that our younger selves enjoyed the action set-pieces but that many of the more adult concepts flew over our heads. But watching this film in middle age certainly brings home just how profound and thoughtful it is. The best science fiction often holds up a dark mirror to our lives and asks question about the human condition that resonate because of their timelessness. The bloody violence on display has much to say about who we are in the real 2018 as it does about the movie's fiction 21st century. Our discussion of the film touches on the career of director Norman Jewison and the script's fidelity to the source material. Credit has to go to Jewison for bringing in the original short story author William Harrison to craft the screenplay. We talk about the actors' performances with attention paid to lead James Caan's ability to convey the depths of a man without the words to express himself clearly. We dig into the future society of the movie and how it's structure resembles other literary dystopian visions from Brave New World, 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 while marveling at the detailed game system set up to make Rollerball a sport that feels realistic. Plus, any film with Ralph Richardson complaining that the planet's computer system has misplaced the whole history of the 13th century is worth seeing! Join us for this return to smart science fiction where ideas are presented in intelligent ways even as heads get busted and people are set on fire! Send any comments or suggestions to thebloodypit@gmail.com where we'll be happy to learn your thoughts on the SF films made before Star Wars. Thank you for downloading and listening.

Hosts Briana Phipps and Christian Bladt discuss the movie Jesus Christ Superstar. Jesus Christ Superstar is a 1973 American musical drama film directed by Norman Jewison and co-written by Jewison and Melvyn Bragg based on the Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice rock opera of the same name. The film, starring Ted Neeley, Carl Anderson, Yvonne Elliman, and Barry Dennen, centers on the conflict between Judas and Jesus during the week before the crucifixion of Jesus. Neeley and Anderson were nominated for two Golden Globe Awards in 1974 for their portrayals of Jesus and Judas, respectively. Although it attracted criticism from some religious groups, reviews for the film were positive.
