Podcast appearances and mentions of Jodie Foster

Our latest guest on Soundtracking - and boy have we had some crackers recently - is none other than Jodie Foster, who joins us to discuss her starring role in psychological thriller, A Private Life. Speaking French (it's a French film), Jodie plays a renowned psychiatrist who launches a private investigation into the suicide of one of her patients, who she believes was murdered.We also discuss Bugsy Malone, Taxi Driver and Silence Of The Lambs.

Filmmaker Rebecca Zlotowski discusses directing Jodie Foster in A Private Life – her first starring role in a French film.

Someone (or something) has gotta keep us safe at night. Wrapping up this first round of DuoVision double features is a pair of aughts Jodie Foster thrillers from major auteurs: David Fincher's PANIC ROOM (2002) and THE BRAVE ONE (2007). Who knew the little girl from Scorsese's TAXI DRIVER would grow up to get her own vigilante blood bath? Not us.

"If we are alone in the Universe, it just seems like an awful waste of space." Tijd om de satellietschotels te richten naar 1997 voor de sci-fi klassieker Contact.Stel je voor: Je luistert al jaren naar de kosmos en plotseling ontvang je een signaal met priemgetallen vanaf een ster. Wat volgt is een wereldwijde crisis, want het signaal bevat de bouwtekening voor een mysterieuze machine. Is het een transportmiddel of een valstrik?In deze aflevering:we kijken met regisseur Robert Zemeckis mee naar de sterren. Kakt het trage tempo van deze film halverwege te ver in voor onze huidige tijd? Is de strijd tussen wetenschap (Jodie Foster) en religie (Matthew McConaughey) nu relevanter dan ooit, of vooral een onbegrijpelijk liefdesduo zonder chemie?We bespreken het ietswat gedateerde smoelwerk, de patriarchale inclusiviteit en waarom die 18 uur aan pure ruis de film de definitieve cultwaarde geeft. Onder de streep doet de film zoveel goeds dat we er met liefde een extra rewind tegenaan gooien!

Megyn Kelly is joined by John Hinckley Jr., musician, artist, and author of "John Hinckley Jr.: Who I Really Am," to talk about what he thought when he saw another Trump assassination attempt at the "Hinckley Hilton," the rise of political violence in America today, people reaching out to him on X to commit further violence against Trump, what an "erotomaniac" actually is, Hinckley's delusion that led to his Jodie Foster obsession, what happened when he actually saw Foster in person at Yale, what led him to start thinking about hurting someone to impress Jodie Foster, his initial targets of Jimmy Carter and even Ted Kennedy, the circumstances that led to his assassination attempt on President Ronald Reagan, how easy it was to get close to Reagan to take the shots, his reaction to Reagan and James Brady's comments about him, what he'd say to their family members now, his communication with Ted Bundy, what life was like in the psychiatric facility, getting released and what life is like now, and more.   More from Hinckley Jr.- https://wbp.bz/johnhinckleyjr   Supersure Insurance: Upgrade your business insurance to a year-round SuperAgency at https://Supersure.com/Megyn Veracity Health: Head to https://VeracityHealth.co and use code Megyn for up to 65% off your order Herald Group: Learn more at https://GuardYourCard.com Sundays for Dogs: Upgrade your dog's food without the hassle—try Sundays for Dogs and get 50% off your first order at https://sundaysfordogs.com/MEGYN or use code MEGYN at checkout.     Follow The Megyn Kelly Show on all social platforms: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/MegynKelly Twitter: http://Twitter.com/MegynKellyShow Instagram: http://Instagram.com/MegynKellyShow Facebook: http://Facebook.com/MegynKellyShow Find out more information at:https://www.devilmaycaremedia.com/megynkellyshow Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

On Episode 152 of The Film 89 Podcast, Steve and Skye are joined by a trio of returning co-hosts, Jacob Rivera, Kyle Reardon and Leighton Winstone, to discuss one of the all-time great serial killer thrillers, director Jonathan Demme's multi-Oscar-winning 1991 adaptation of Thomas Harris' best-selling novel, The Silence of the Lambs. Starring Jodie Foster, Anthony Hopkins, Scott Glenn and Ted Levine, the film would receive huge critical acclaim and worldwide box office success and would go on to become one of only three films to win “the big 5” at the Academy Awards; Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actor and Best Actress, as well as nominations for Best Editing and Best Sound. The Silence of the Lambs is widely regarded as one of the greatest films in the history of the medium and is given the in-depth Film '89 treatment for its 35th anniversary. 

This week on Hashtag History, we will be discussing the attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan. On March 30, 1981, President of the United States Ronald Reagan was shot outside of the Washington Hilton in Washington, DC, as he was leaving a speaking engagement. He was shot by a man named John Hinckley, Jr., a twenty-five year old man who had fallen in love with actress Jodie Foster after seeing her in the movie, Taxi Driver (which she starred in when she was twelve-years-old), and believed that if he successfully killed the President, that she would be impressed.Reagan was actually seriously injured during this attempt. When he was thrown into his limousine by his servicemen, they originally thought he had just broken a rib or something and that's why he was experiencing chest pain. But they discovered after he reached the hospital – where he collapsed – that Hinckley had successfully hit him with a bullet that had come within an inch of his heart. He miraculously recovered and was released a few weeks later.As for his would-be assassin, he was found Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity and was sent to a psychiatric hospital…that he was actually released from in 2021…so yes, he is out and about…so that's great.I don't want to spend this whole episode talking about just Reagan and Hinckley though because, one of the major pieces of this story that so many people neglect to tell, is that several of Reagan's staffers and local policemen were also wounded during the assassination attempt including White House press secretary James Brady who was hit in the head and, as a result, suffered from brain damage for the rest of his life. It's actually because of Brady and his wife that we have the Brady Law (or, the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act of 1993) which established federal background checks on firearms and a five-day waiting period for handgun purchases.Follow Hashtag History on Instagram @hashtaghistory_podcast for all of the pictures mentioned in this episode.Citations for all sources can be located on our website at www.HashtagHistory-Pod.com.

Hotel Artemis was written and directed by Drew Pearce.

We begin our month of celebrating moms with a New York City Brownstone, a hidden fortune, a corn rowed Jared Leto, a sympathetic Forest Whitaker, a psychopathic Dwight Yoakum, a young Kristen Stewart, a protective motherly Jodie Foster, a meticulous director in David Fincher, and it all centers on a Panic Room. That's right we watched the 2002 David Fincher Panic Room join us if you dare. 

Panic Room was a successful mid-range budget thriller from the early 2000s. Starring Jodie Foster and directed by David Fincher, it became a huge hit at the time of its release, but has since become somewhat forgotten. So join us as we delve back into this slice of history, which still looks pretty great by today's standards, especially considering the use of CGI effects to achieve specific shots. Also, as always, we've picked out the most loathsome characters from the film, so join us at the end of the episode in voting for which one was the most deserving to die. If you would like to join our livestream recordings for The Cherry Picker, we would be thrilled to have you with us.

Send us Fan MailThis week we have another listener pick for the podcast; this time it is a submission from our wonderful, longtime friend and fellow cinephile Andrew, who recommended to us (in a very off-the-cuff fashion), 1976's "Taxi Driver."  Directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Robert De Niro, Cybill Shepherd and Jodie Foster, this iconic film is about a mentally unstable loner in a big city who resorts to drastic action to find meaning in his life.We also take an exploratory dive into male loneliness, its possible causes and the films that deal with this subject.  So hop in and join us for an exciting ride through existential despair and the downward spiral, as we pose the universal question, "are you talkin' to ME?"

For this Out Takes, we turned our spotlight on to one of the retrospective highlights in a new Aussie focused cinema celebration screening right through May at Cinema Nova, plus we reviewed Jodie Foster’s latest film that is one for the Francophiles. First up, we took a look at ‘Going Down’ from the early 80’s, a film about four young women living in a share house in Sydney that after its initial release was deemed a cult classic but all but disappeared until a copy showed up in the US a few years ago which started a chain reaction that has lead to it being restored, resurrected and back in cinemas across Melbourne this May. This film is bold, brash and an incredible time capsule of the uncontrolled excess in inner-city Sydney for many young people during the early 1980s and who better to discuss it in-depth than its director Haydn Keenan who provided some great insight into the making of the film and the importance of preserving our local cinematic history. We also took the opportunity to review  the latest film from Jodie Foster. ‘A Private Life’ (Vie Privée) premiered to great acclaim at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival and is described as a frisky, feminine, film noir about psychoanalysis, sex and more. The post ‘Going Down’ with special guest Haydn Keenan and ‘A Private Life’ review appeared first on Out Takes.

This week on Unglossy, the fellas sit down with Mark Isham — Grammy-nominated composer and trumpeter behind some of Hollywood's most iconic scores, including Crash, A River Runs Through It, Point Break, and 42. Mark traces the journey from San Francisco's jazz scene to landing a $35 million Disney film with no formal training and 90 bucks in the bank — and how a home-duplicated cassette changed everything. He breaks down what it's really like to score films for Jodie Foster, Robert Redford, and Kathryn Bigelow, the night he rewrote the entire Point Break score, and why silencing self-doubt has been as important as any musical skill. Plus: where film scoring is heading, a new series about the Irish gangs of Brooklyn, and a new album in the works Unglossy is hosted by Bun B, Jeffrey Sledge, and Tom Frank.

Inside Man is a clever heist film with the twist staring you in the face from the beginning. It's also the first Spike Lee or Jodie Foster film to be reviewed on Have You Ever Seen in quite some time. Foster and Denzel Washington's scenes together are fantastic. The 2 of them, plus Clive Owen, Christopher Plummer, Willem Dafoe and Chiwetel Ejiofor deliver. Ironically, though, for a film with such intensity for 2 straight hours, the actors are generally calm. Well, Denzel is showboating, but he's Denzel. You can't reign in that charisma machine. So for my 734th episode, settle in to hear about a snappy caper film as I monologue about Spike Lee's biggest hit, Inside Man. Subscribe to Have You Ever Seen in your app. Rate and review it too.

Stay connected with us at americangroundradio.com, on Facebook, and Instagram. You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for April 10, 2026. We kick things off with a conversation about boldness, confidence, and what it means to expect greatness — and that leads us straight to President Trump's proposed 250-foot triumphal arch to mark America's 250th anniversary. We dig into whether this gold-emblazoned monument is the unapologetic celebration of American greatness that this country deserves, or whether an arch — historically a symbol of military conquest — is the right way to tell America's story. We land somewhere interesting, and we think you will too. Then we go deeper into the Dignidad Act — the amnesty bill working its way through the House with 19 Republican signatures on it. The Federalist ran a piece on the eight most insane provisions buried inside this bill, and we walk through the worst of them. Lawyers get student loan forgiveness for helping illegal immigrants stay in the country. Deported aliens can come right back in. Illegal immigrants don't have to pay FICA taxes — giving their employers an unfair advantage over every business following the law. And if you're in the country illegally and get convicted of DWI, theft, fraud, assault, or domestic violence? You still get to stay. We call this what it is — amnesty on top of amnesty — and we name the Republicans who should be ashamed of themselves for signing on. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson join us to break down the Rupert Murdoch documentary and what it reveals about entitlement, greed, and what money and power do to people over time. We get into why Murdoch's kids felt entitled to a fortune they didn't build, how greed changes people in Washington the same way it changes people in Hollywood, and why Trump and Elon Musk are two of the rare exceptions to the rule that absolute power corrupts absolutely. In our Digging Deep segment, Disney quietly brought back "ladies and gentlemen" to its park greetings after dropping the phrase in 2021 in favor of "dreamers of all ages." We dig into what that reversal actually signals about where the culture is heading — and what happened to Disney's stock price in the years between. We also respond to Jodi Foster, Ben Stiller, Spike Lee, Pedro Pascal, Madonna, and Mark Ruffalo demanding the closure of the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Texas. We explain exactly why these celebrities have zero credibility on this issue and remind everyone what was actually happening to immigrant children during the Biden administration. And we close out with Fake News Friday — we run through the week's wildest headlines and challenge you to sort the real from the fake. Canada's new pride acronym alone is worth tuning in for.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay have some fava beans and a nice Chianti before talking about the thriller masterpiece, 'The Silence of the Lambs.' Andy is the first to rub the lotion on his skin, as he recalls having to make an illegal deal with a looney guy who bred exotic moths, butterflies, and other creepy crawlies similar to Buffalo Bill. Then the boys dive into Jonathan Demme's classic that spawned countless imitators, and some truly regrettable sequels. The guys try to make sense of Hannibal Lecter's otherworldly abilities such as being able to smell as if he was part X-Men. This leads to comparing Anthony Hopkins' unforgettable turn as the cannibalistic doctor versus Brian Cox's more subdued portrayal in the '80s. Hopkins and Jodie Foster may have been bestowed with the most critical acclaim, but Ted Levine plays the actual villain in this film, and his Buffalo Bill is skin-crawlingly effective. Andy and Bombay wonder why he was never given the prestigious career that others had. Maybe it was the tuck scene that turned people off? They truly do not make them like this anyone — that refers to this box office studio smash, and this podcast.

Yikes. This week, V and Emily try their best to be Carefully Neutral (well, V does) as they delve into the sordid, obsession-fueled assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan by John Hinckley, Jr, who wanted very badly to impress child actress Jodie Foster. After the event, though, came the fallout: the idea of "the obsessed fan" became a cultural boogeyman of the early '80s. So what was fandom supposed to do if not write scathing LOCs in Star Trek zines? We look at how the demonization of "fans" played out in the dialogue of actual fans in fannish spaces, and really, we did our best to be classy. Well. V did.

“It's not about the money.” Join Ian & Megs for our 324th episode as we step into the perfectly constructed, quietly audacious bank heist of Spike Lee's Inside Man (2006). Clocks are ticking, identities are shifting, and nothing is quite what it seems as we try to work out who's really in control… and who never was. This week we discuss: Denzel Washington as Detective Frazier — cool, controlled, and always just one step behind. Is this one of Denzel's most understated performances? Clive Owen's Dalton Russell — precise, patient, and almost philosophical. Is he a villain, a hero, or something far more interesting?  Also, is he more than just a poor man's Gerard Butler? Jodie Foster's power broker — calculated, composed, and operating on a completely different level of influence.  Do we forgive her more easily because of her gender? The structure of the heist — meticulous, layered, and deliberately misleading. How does the film hide its intentions in plain sight? Megs explores the film's themes of power and privilege — what's really being stolen, and who actually gets away with it. Ian breaks down Spike Lee's direction and cinematography — style, pacing, and how he injects social commentary into a genre film without slowing it down. The use of misdirection — costumes, timelines, and narrative sleight of hand. When does the audience realise they've been played? The “show vs tell” balance — how much does the film explain, and how much does it trust the audience to catch up? The ending reveal — clever, satisfying, or just slightly too neat? Does the film even know what the ending of its own plot is? Are we satisfied with how it ended and what would be the danger of making it more explicit? The moral question — is justice served, or simply… redirected? And finally, whether Inside Man is the Best Film Ever — or one of the smartest, most rewatchable heist films of the 21st century.

Is Panic Room just Home Alone For Adults? David Fincher's 2002 home invasion thriller is sharper, darker, and weirder than you remember — and this week we're breaking down every inch of it. Brian, John, and returning guest Anastasia Elfman revisit one of the most underrated thrillers of the early 2000s. They cover Fincher's Hitchcockian direction, those impossibly fluid CGI camera moves, and the film's relentless tension-building — plus everything the IMDb synopsis conveniently left out. On the table this week: whether Jared Leto's cornrow-sporting Junior ruins the film or serves it (the panel is divided), why Forest Whitaker's Burnham is the most sympathetic criminal in cinema history, and why Dwight Yoakam's Raul was robbed of an Oscar. They also dig into the bearer bonds MacGuffin — yes, whoever physically holds them legally owns them, robbery be damned — and unpack the wild behind-the-scenes story of Nicole Kidman's knee injury, Jodie Foster filming while pregnant, and how Kristen Stewart ended up in the role that was originally cast very differently. Plus: diabetes as the fourth villain of Panic Room, the Home Alone propane explosion comparison, and what you would actually do if the cops showed up at your door while armed criminals watched you on camera. The episode closes with a tease of Cinema Psycho Show's 10th anniversary special — Brian and John are fixing Batman Forever. You heard that right.

Enter the mind of a killer! This week, Peaches and Michael are enjoying fava beans with a nice chianti in celebration of 1991's THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS! In addition to discussing the game-changing prestige of this horror classic, our hosts delve into the echoes of its problematic elements. Joining the conversation is drag artist extraordinaire Dakota D'Vil, who speaks about how an early viewing led to a lifelong obsession with the subversive world of Clarice, Dr. Lecter, and Buffalo Bill. Then, undeniable superstar and Hollywood icon Clea DuVall stops by to dig into her love of Demme's macabre masterpiece, as well as the monolithic power of Jodie Foster! From Q Lazzarus to Precious the dog, this episode has it all! Go! 

Spike Lee's bank robbery crime drama is packed with talent: Denzel, Clive Owen, Jodi Foster, Christopher Plummer, among others, but we get into what made this movie work, with heavy leaning on its clever twist ending. Movies with big third act twists often live or die by them, and Inside Man lives. We had a good time talking about this movie that is, shockingly, 20 years old this year. And our random unrelated mention on this episode goes out to Traci Bingham. Thanks for listening to who our close friends and family objectively call the greatest nostalgia movie podcast of all time. Be kind, rewind, relax, and enjoy the show!

In honor of the 35th anniversary of The Silence of the Lambs (1991), we're releasing special retro coverage of the film. This commissioned podcast is brought to you by the generosity of one Aaron Spaulding, thank you! Aaron wanted us to check out the 1991 mystery/thriller, "The Silence of the Lambs", directed by Jonathan Demme and starring Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster. It's no surprise that we're mesmerized by Hopkin's performance of the chilling yet suave and charming Dr. Hannibal Lecter, and found the film offered some smart commentary on a female breaking into a male dominated space as well. What might be to some surprise is Jim and A.Ron's relative unfamiliarity with the material, which led to some confusion in places. Hope you enjoy the podcast, I hear it pairs well with a nice Chianti.

She talks with Terry Gross about the 50th anniversary of that movie, getting mauled by a lion on a set, and why she kept her sexuality private for most of her career. Foster's latest film, ‘Vie Privée' (‘A Private Life'), is in French, which she speaks fluently. Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

true Crime Tuesday presents: Who I Really Am: Life After The Attempt On Reagan with Singer/Songwriter/and Author, John Hinckley Jr.. As shots rang out on March 30, 1981, outside the Hilton Hotel in Washington, D.C., President Ronald Reagan and three others lay seriously wounded. Just two months after Reagan was sworn in as the 40th president, John Hinckley Jr. shocked the world with his obsession with a movie star.  What followed was chaos. America learned of the deep psychosis that led to Hinckley's obsession with actress Jodie Foster, and how, in his mind, he did it all for her. His trial gripped the nation. Many expected a guilty verdict, but his acquittal on grounds of insanity sparked outrage and forever changed how the law viewed mental illness. Now, for the first time, Hinckley tells his own story. He takes us through an early life of unfulfilled dreams, a music career, and a college degree that slipped away, as well as the descent into a mind overcome by delusion. He recounts the years spent in confinement at St. Elizabeth's Hospital, the slow climb toward recovery, and the people who helped him find his way back. A life defined by a single, horrific act becomes something more: a story of mental illness, redemption, and the long road to understanding the man behind one of America's most infamous moments. On today's TCT, we are joined by John Hinckley Jr. as he completely opens up to us about many topics including his issues with mental illness, his past obsession with Jodie Foster,  his remorse over the attempted assassination of President Reagan and injuring the people involved, continued public backlash against him 45 years later, and much more!
