Podcast appearances and mentions of John Boorman

Primroses le Colm Mac Con Iomaire agus One Eye One Finger by John Boorman

Excalibur, o la revisión del mito del rey Arturo y Merlín, es una de las adaptaciónes más conocidas del tema. Dani Palacios y Juanma González dedican un programa a la película Excalibur, revisión del mito del Rey Arturo a manos de John Boorman estrenada en 1981. Esta fantásía épica dejó en su momento muchas imágenes para el recuerdo, producto de la gloriosa fotografía de Alex Thomson, y es en conjunto una de las obras más apreciadas en torno a esa fábula.

Prep your canoes and don't anger the locals because we're discussing John Boorman's (in)famous 1972 thriller Deliverance and all the baggage that comes with it. Join us as we take a look at a film whose reputation precedes it, from its male rape scene to its portrayal of rural mountain folk. There's plenty to unpack here! Plus: Burt Reynolds' lamb bone, squealing pigs, raping landscapes, and the poignancy of watching a grown man weep.

The movie of the week is Deliverance (1972), and the team discusses all things hillbilly. From wiki: “Deliverance is a 1972 American thriller film directed and produced by John Boorman from a screenplay by James Dickey, who adapted it from his own 1970 novel. It follows four businessmen from Atlanta who venture into the remote northern Georgia wilderness to see the Cahulawassee River before it is dammed, only to find themselves in danger from the area's inhabitants and nature. It stars Jon Voight, Burt Reynolds, Ned Beatty, and Ronny Cox, with the latter two making their feature film debuts.”Also discussed: the winners of our giveaway have been picked, The Royal Tenenbaums, Vanessa 5000, Across 110th Street, Bound, Timestalker, and Appalachia. NEXT WEEK: The White Reindeer (1952)  Bloodhaus:https://www.bloodhauspod.com/https://twitter.com/BloodhausPodhttps://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/ Drusilla Adeline:https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/https://letterboxd.com/sisterhyde/ Joshua Conkelhttps://www.joshuaconkel.com/https://bsky.app/profile/joshuaconkel.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/https://letterboxd.com/JoshuaConkel/  

In 1974, John Boorman created a trippy, futuristic ... thing, full of broad social commentary (as well as sex, violence and very, very odd wardrobe choices). And Sean Connery starred, in an effort to break free of the James Bond persona. Did they succeed? Can Ian and Matthew make any sense of this? Listen to find out.

No áudio de hoje, Alexandre Cataldo recebe o músico e cinéfilo Willian de Andrade e o professor Fábio Rockenbach (Universidade de Passo Fundo e canal "A Experiência do Cinema") e juntos, os três resolvem descer o Rio Cahulawassee em canoas, enquanto debatem sobre o inesquecível filme de John Boorman, "Amargo Pesadelo" (Deliverance, 1972).  Estrelado por Jon Voight, Burt Reynolds, Ned Beatty e Ronny Cox, este clássico foi um dos filmes mais marcantes da década de 70, um autêntico produto da Nova Hollywood e um dos melhores filmes de Boorman, conhecido também por longas como "À Queima-roupa" e "Excalibur". A produção foi indicada ao Oscar nas categorias de filme, direção e montagem.Crédito da Foto: Warner Bros.----------------------Acesse nosso site: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.filmesclassicos.com.br⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Acesse nossa página no Facebook : ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/podcastfilmesclassicos/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

What a breath of fresh air it is to find an academic as passionate about discussing the adaptations of Tolkien works, as he is about Tolkien’s books!   Today, on Mythmakers, in this wide-ranging interview, Julia Golding meets with Professor Nick Groom to discuss his book Twenty-First Century Tolkien.

Sarah is joined by fellow historian Maeve Doyle and fan of people getting stabbed Ollie to talk about the seminal 1981 classic Excalibur. Directed by John Boorman and seemingly filmed in a fog of coke dust and horniness this movie is one of the most famous medieval movies of all time. As Maeve says- this movie is a rich text.

17th May 2012, Aedín Gormley talks to British film-maker John Boorman who has made Wicklow his home for the past 40 years. He's best known for films Deliverance, Excalibur, The Emerald Forest, Beyond Rangoon, The General and The Tailor of Panama. He discusses with Aedín the music for his films, from the banjos of Deliverance to opera in Excalibur.

John Boorman, who turns 92 this Saturday, returned to England in November 2022, after 53 years in his beloved home,The Glebe, in County Wicklow. Stephen Rea and Kevin Reynolds drove to Annamoe to say goodbye.

Here it is, John Boorman's epic retelling of King Arthur's conception, Camelot, the Holy Grail, and his final betrayal by his own son. It's mostly Thomas Malory's 15th century romance Le Morte Darthur, mashed up with bits of Jessie Weston's 1920 book, the Grail study "From Ritual to Romance" and with a heavy dollop of 1960s Neopaganism. It has plenty of sex, violence, swords, and sorcery to grab the attention of any young teen watching HBO in the 1980s, and enough Before They Were Stars for the rest of us. Starring Nigel Terry, Helen Mirren, Nichol Williamson, Nicholas Clay, Cherie Lunghi, Gabriel Byrne, Patrick Stewart, Paul Geoffrey, Robert Addie, and Liam Neeson. Written and directed by John Boorman. This is a preview of the latest episode of our series Hollywood Avalon.

Closing out 2024, cohosts Mike and Dino honor one of the greats in I Eat Movies #38: Quincy Control - The Split (1968) / The Anderson Tapes (1971)! Spotlighting the limitless talent of the late Quincy Jones as well as the iconic roster of artists guided by his producing prowess, the fellas examine two dynamite cinematic helpings elevated by his music. First up, Jim Brown stars as the man with a plan to lead a team of thieves in a heist to snatch millions from the Los Angeles Coliseum. Highlighting the exceptional supporting cast and misguided reception from critics and its own producers, our discussion on this highly stylish effort also ropes in John Boorman's Point Blank and Peter Yates' Bullitt for good measure! Next up, Sean Connery sheds his 007 persona as a recently released prisoner looking for a big pay day by targeting a ritzy Fifth Avenue apartment complex in The Anderson Tapes. Helmed by New York fixture Sidney Lumet, this clever and ahead of the curve examination of surveillance is loaded with more good nature than the rest of the cynical 70s would have you believe. Lawrence Sanders' original novel of which the film is based on as well as Quincy's space-age jazz score are covered at length in this celebration of the maestro's more overlooked works!

Happy almost-Thanksgiving to all you lovely listeners out there. This week The Searchers cover John Boorman's Excalibur with guest and friend o' the pod Bryant Tyler.

The perils of leaving civilisation behind. This week, we strike out into the wilderness to explore a couple of backwoods thrillers: the big daddy of them all, Deliverance (1972) directed by John Boorman and one of the many imitators that came in its wake, William Grefe's Whiskey Mountain (1977). We discuss the world of hillbilly and hickspoloitation film in general, as well as addressing the vital issues of how to deal with drunken psychopaths on set, the unique challenge of acting convincingly dead and the disturbing American trend of camping without tents in movies. We will be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for both films, so if you haven't seen them before you listen, you can nevertheless avoid spoilers for Deliverance by skipping ahead to the 1:07:38 mark, and for Whiskey Mountain by skipping ahead to 1:44:02.

A dense, enigmatic, and bombastic epic, John Boorman's 1981 film Excalibur brings the Arthurian romances to life in all their symbolic glory. Featuring a stellar cast, including Helen Mirren, Nicol Williamson, Liam Neeson, Patrick Stewart, Ciarán Hinds, and Gabriel Byrne, the film is an opportunity to see many lauded British and Irish actors early in their careers. Excalibur leans into the episodic and mysterious nature of the Arthurian stories, leaving it to the viewer to interpret and understand the events unfolding on screen. The film also provides a visual feast with amazing costuming, epic set-pieces, and stunning cinematography, all of which add to its larger than life feel. While challenging and, at times, confusing, Excalibur holds up well in the modern day and its ambition is second-to-none.

You know him from his epic road trips with Ewan McGregor in Long Way Round, Down and Up but adventurer Charley Boorman's life is full of journeys of an entirely different kind … of personal challenge, crisis and resilience.As a child actor Charley, the son of director John Boorman, starred in movies including The Emerald Forest but severe dyslexia got in the way.  He then faced the devastating loss of his beloved sister before his own health crisis with cancer.  Working as a builder, Charley found his true purpose and passion after becoming friends with fellow motorbike obsessive actor Ewan McGregor.  Their hugely successful TV show followed, as did a series of crashes – one in 2018 that almost claimed Charley's life.  He continues to embrace a life of daring adventure proving that, for him, action truly is the antidote for despair.  Links    Charley's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/charleyboorman/?hl=enCharley's website: https://www.charleyboorman.com/  Charities: UNICEF: http://www.unicef.org.uk/Dyslexia Action: http://dyslexiaaction.org.ukUnited World Schools: http://www.unitedworldschools.org/  Stream/buy ‘Allies' by Some Velvet Morning: https://ampl.ink/qp6bm    Some Velvet Morning Website: www.somevelvetmorning.co.uk      Your Daily Practice: Sleep by Myndstream: https://open.spotify.com/track/5OX9XgJufFz9g63o2Dv2i5?si=b2f9397c92084682    This podcast is brought to you by Crisis What Crisis?

EXCALIBUR (1981), directed by John Boorman, is a visually stunning retelling of the Arthurian legend. The film chronicles the rise and fall of King Arthur, from his miraculous birth to his ascension as king, the formation of the Knights of the Round Table, and the quest for the Holy Grail. With the mystical sword Excalibur … Continue reading Ep. 07-08: Excalibur (1981) & The Green Knight (2021) →

Jonathan ist Künstler. Er gilt als eine der skurrilsten Persönlichkeiten der gegenwärtigen deutschen Kunstszene. Mit seinen Gemälden, Performances, Videokunst und Theaterarbeiten polarisiert Jonathan seit Ende der 90er-Jahre – Er stand vor Gericht, weil er im Namen der Kunst den Hitlergruß in der Öffentlichkeit zeigte und wurde vielfach als “verrückt” oder “irre” abgetan. Ich wollte von ihm wissen, warum er der Kunst so sehr vertraut wie niemand anders, wieso er missverstanden wird und wie er “sein Ich herausfurzt”, was er nach eigener Aussage regelmäßig tut. Wir sprechen über den Unterschied zwischen dem Ich und dem Selbst, über Ängste, Ideologien und Gefühlskollektivierung, es geht um Freiheit, Liebe und Träume und darum, Türen in türlosen Räumen zu suchen.

We discuss John Boorman's 1974 magnum opus Zardoz, starring Sean Connery and Charlotte Rampling. It's a whirlwind of ideas and visual delights. Connery is the chosen one, a Mega-Connery in a post-apocalyptic world waiting for him to arrive and tear the place down. 

The power of Barbra Streisand goes up against the call of the wild this week. Peter Bogdanovich's "What's Up, Doc?" starring Babs and Ryan O'Neal (and a host of other '70s comedic geniuses) is up first.

This week, the boys head up the Cahulawassee River to discuss ‘Deliverance': Films of 1972. Our random year generator spun a year we've previously crossed to discuss ‘The Godfather' and ‘A Clockwork Orange,' and the three of us had never seen it before! Maybe it's people's reaction when you say, “I'm going to watch ‘Deliverance,' want to come over?” While we're a joke-flinging, arrow-shooting, beer-drinking podcast, we promise to give a thoughtful and insightful reflection of ‘Deliverance' that other podcasts can't deliver!

The Dank Diplomat Ngaio Bealum is back on OMFYS and he's picked a pair of movies to get high to from Criterion Channel's current series HOLLYWOOD CRACK-UP: THE DECADE AMERICAN CINEMA LOST ITS MIND. First, LEE MARVIN is punching dudes in the nuts and throwing them out of high-rise windows all to get his $93,000 back in POINT BLANK (1967). It's heavy on the testosterone but has lots of psychedelic and French New Wave touches from then-young director JOHN BOORMAN, who went on to make some of the trippiest movies ever made with EXCALIBUR (1981) & ZARDOZ (1974). Also starring Angie Dickenson, Sharon Acker, Carrol O'Connor (Archie Bunker), and introducing John Vernon (Dean Wormer from Animal House). Then SIDNEY POITIER is a prison psychiatrist trying to unravel the twisted psyche of a deranged but dangerous nazi played with menace by crooner BOBBY DARIN. This movie is chock full of the tripped-out dream sequences that we live for on this podcast, all set to an awesome jazz theremin score by Ernest Gold and photographed with intensity by Ernest Haller, the man who shot GONE WITH THE WIND and REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE. This is the forgotten collaboration between producer Stanley Kramer and Poitier, who also made THE DEFIANT ONES (1958) and GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER (1967), but Bob thinks PRESSURE POINT is their best. And if all that ain't enough, we've got a young PETER FALK thrown in here for good measure. Both movies are now streaming on CRITERION CHANNEL, which is really knocking it out of the park these days.

Oscar-winning director, screenwriter and novelist Neil Jordan made his name with the 1984 movie The Company Of Wolves, adapted from an Angela Carter short story. His 1986 film Mona Lisa earned BAFTA and Golden Globe awards for its star Bob Hoskins. Jordan scored an even bigger critical and commercial hit worldwide with The Crying Game, which had six Academy Award nominations including best screenplay which was won by Neil Jordan himself. His 20 feature films made over 40 years also include an adaptation of Ann Rice's novel Interview With the Vampire, Irish revolutionary drama Michael Collins and The End Of The Affair, adapted from the Graham Greene novel. Neil Jordan talks to John Wilson about his upbringing in a Dublin suburb, the son of a school teacher father who encouraged an early love of storytelling. After working as a labourer, and in a Dublin theatre for a while, he met filmmaker John Boorman (Point Blank, Deliverance, The Emerald Forest) who, in 1980, was shooting his Arthurian legend film Excalibur at film studios in Ireland. Boorman invited Neil Jordan to direct a documentary about the making of Excalibur, an experience which started his filmmaking career. Jordan also chooses the 1943 Jean Genet novel Notre Dame des Fleurs - Our Lady Of The Flowers - as a formative influence on his screenwriting. He recalls the struggles to make The Crying Game and how the film's producer Harvey Weinstein objected to the inclusion of a trans character, a supporting role for which Jaye Davidson was nominated as best actor at the 1992 Academy Awards.Producer: Edwina PitmanArchive used: Clip from A Fistful of Dollars, Sergio Leone, 1964 Clip from Excalibur, John Boorman, 1981 Clip from The Crying Game, Neil Jordan, 1992 Neil Jordan accepts his Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, 1992 Clip from The Crying Game, Neil Jordan, 1992 Clip from Michael Collins, Neil Jordan, 1996

Bill Childs shares even more memories about 1981's Excalibur, explaining how John Boorman's (cult) classic inspired Bill's own creative process, plus teaching yourself to be a filmmaker, wedding cinematography, and early technology like 1984's Apple Macintosh.

Long-time supporter Kent and has picked another classic this week in Deliverance from 1972. And is also the last installment of our 3 week Burt Reynolds season! Check out a whole bunch of cool stuff Kent does on his facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/kentgustavsonphd. Deliverance, directed by John Boorman, was both ambitious and challenging, marked by its decision to shoot on location in the remote wilderness of northern Georgia. This choice lent the film an authentic and gritty atmosphere but also presented numerous logistical and safety challenges. The actors, including Jon Voight, Burt Reynolds, Ned Beatty, and Ronny Cox, performed many of their own stunts, including navigating the treacherous Chattooga River in canoes, which heightened the realism but also exposed them to significant risks. Burt Reynolds was injured while performing a canoe stunt when he was swept downriver and hit by rocks. The production team had to contend with the natural elements, which often made filming difficult and unpredictable, yet these same challenges contributed to the film's visceral and immersive quality. The production's commitment to authenticity extended beyond the physical challenges. Boorman chose to cast relatively unknown actors at the time to enhance the believability of the characters. The decision to film the infamous "Dueling Banjos" scene and other intense moments in natural settings without relying heavily on special effects or studio sets helped cement the film's raw and unsettling tone. Additionally, the script, adapted by James Dickey from his own novel, required delicate handling of its controversial themes, including graphic violence and sexual assault. Despite the difficulties faced during production, Deliverance emerged as a critical and commercial success, praised for its unflinching portrayal of survival and its exploration of human nature under duress. The film's stark realism, powerful performances, and haunting musical score have left a lasting impact on audiences and cinema history.

A few months ago we held a poll to decide on our 5mil celebration episode, and the winner was Master and Commander. A close runner up and fan favourite was this, a classic punchline movie.

Until hoarse voices cried out in terror- We're all too sick to record an episode of our podcast this week. John Boorman directed the movie Deliverance. Because of this, he was given access to 1.5 Million Quid and told to just fuckin make another movie. This is what he created... Zardoz.   ------ FREE PALESTINE Hey, Devon here.

Westlake using the pseudonym Richard Stark, which had earlier been adapted into the 1967 film noir classic Point Blank, directed by John Boorman and starring Lee Marvin.   In 2006, director Brian Helgeland issued a director's cut that differs substantially from the version released by the studio.

Do you believe that this sequel is good? It's going to take some strong faith on your part. Synopsis The Exorcist: Believer is a direct sequel to the original 1973 The Exorcist. In this film, we get not one, but two, that's right two possessions for the price of one. When two teenage girls go out into the woods to perform a séance, they disappear and reappear days later acting… strange. Their parents struggle to find out why the reason th... It's possession, they are possessed. The father of one of the girls played by Leslie Odom Jr. must recruit an Oceans 11 type ragtag group of exorcists and Chris MacNeil reprised by Ellen Burstyn, who I can only assume had an important boat she wanted to buy. Review of Exorcist: Believer NBCUniversal shelled out 400 million on the rights to The Exorcist IP and entrusted David Gordon Green to work his soft reboot magic that he showed with the Halloween franchise. They've committed to producing two more of these exorcist films, and after watching this one… I'm not  a believer. Much like most of the previous sequel and prequels in the franchise, this film fails to recapture the humanity, darkness, and complexity of the original. You could point to the fact that they keep giving these movies to mediocre or hack directors, but even John Boorman fucked up The Exorcist 2, and he directed Deliverance. Also, since The Exorcist was released, it seems like there is rarely a year that goes by that there isn't an exorcism themed horror movie in theaters. It's a tired horror trope at this point. As a result, The Exorcist: Believer comes off as another generic possession movie going through the motions while skipping all the “boring” parts like relationships, character development, or mystery. A lot of eyes have rolled over some of the messaging in this movie about being woke. Ellen Burstyn's line about not being part of the damn patriarchy and being excluded from the original exorcism comes off as heavy handed and completely detached from the story of the original film. I think Chris MacNeil's character is the greatest casualty of this film. However, I think the root problem is that in trying to make Exorcism more inclusive and exploring the universality of evil, it comes off as wishy washy and noncommittal. Score 3/10 https://youtu.be/RAR4_7LCDIg

It is always an honor to host Eric G. Wilson; this time, he discusses his latest work, Point Blank. We will explore the themes and impact of filmmaker John Boorman, an influence on many of today's great directors like Quentin Tarantino, Michael Mann, and Christopher Nolan. Our focus will be the film Point Blank, but we'll extend to other classics like Excalibur, Deliverance, and Zardoz. Beyond Gnostic themes in Boorman's canon, we'll find the powerful ideas of trauma healing, gaining a spiritual life, and the importance of the divine feminine in any man's life.
