Steven Spielberg is the most famous filmmaker alive, which is exactly why almost nobody actually understands him. Chris and Daniel use Disclosure Day, Spielberg's new alien chase thriller with Emily Blunt, to argue that the "safe, mainstream" reputation is a decades-long misdirection: underneath the crowd-pleasing surface is a genuinely weird, deeply personal artist who has been smuggling strange, uncomfortable ideas inside blockbuster packaging since at least Close Encounters. They trace it through Fabelman's casting David Lynch as John Ford, the theory that Kubrick handed Spielberg AI specifically because Spielberg's glossy reputation could disguise a bleak, unnerving film, and the moment James Lipton caught Spielberg off guard by connecting his parents directly to Close Encounters on camera. Disclosure Day itself is proving strangely divisive, and Chris and Daniel dig into why. They break down its Sugarland Express-style chase structure, an Emily Blunt performance that starts as broad comedy and quietly transforms into something much stranger, a train sequence built to feel genuinely dangerous rather than stylized, and the VFX work from longtime collaborator Matthew Butler. Along the way, a detour into Spielberg's actual filmmaking journey, from Close Encounters to Poltergeist to AI, makes the case that his reputation as the "obvious" director has always been the biggest misdirection in his own filmography.

Aeversa's John Ford unpacks the rands-and-cents case for electric trucks in this first of a new interview series. TechCentral is proud to present the first episode of Watts & Wheels with Wills, our new interview show about electric vehicles and the fast-changing world of e-mobility in South Africa. In the debut episode, host William Kelly speaks to John Ford, sales manager at Aeversa, a fleet-focused electrification specialist helping some of South Africa's biggest logistics operators make the switch from diesel to electric. Ford's central message is that electrifying a fleet is not about swapping every diesel truck for a battery-powered one. Each depot has its own energy profile – municipal tariff structures, grid capacity, demand charges and time-of-use rates – and the trick is matching the right vehicles, routes and charging strategies to each site. Get it right, he says, and the savings flow: solar charging over midday, battery storage to bridge expensive evening peaks and cheap off-peak grid power overnight. The numbers from Aeversa's work with Takealot Fulfilment Services – the e-commerce giant's logistics arm – back him up. What began in 2022 as a single imported electric truck covering 15 000km in a proof-of-concept trial grew to a 10-vehicle pilot that delivered an average 14% saving in total cost of ownership – before any solar or battery storage was added. With the fleet expanded to 21 vehicles and renewables in the mix, average savings climbed to 16%, peaking at 22% in some months. Today the fleet numbers 35 vehicles consuming about 1.2GWh/year, with solar providing 60-82% of that energy. Aeversa expects savings of 18-20% on average – and, with global oil prices rattled by the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz, potentially more than 30%. “When you go electric, you can use those savings to expand your fleet or invest in solar and battery storage – and that adds more savings. It's a self-fulfilling cycle,” said Ford. Don't miss a great discussion! TechCentral

Analizamos, junto a Santiago Navajas, el trasfondo de algunas de sus obras maestras: liberalismo, defensa del individuo y arraigo a la tierra. John Ford es el único director al que Orson Welles respetaba sin reservas. Cuando le preguntaron por los tres mejores cineastas norteamericanos, respondió: "El primero es John Ford, el segundo es John Ford y el tercero es John Ford." Esta semana, en Economía para Quedarte sin Amigos, contamos con Santiago Navajas, filósofo y crítico de cine, para analizar tres películas del director —La diligencia, El sargento negro y El hombre que mató a Liberty Valance— y explorar por qué su cine sigue siendo una de las defensas más lúcidas del pensamiento liberal que ha dado la historia del séptimo arte. La tesis de partida es que el liberalismo, a diferencia de otras ideologías, no es una utopía abstracta sino, como señala Navajas, "una utopía con los pies en el suelo, basada en una concepción de la naturaleza humana que no es idealista sino enraizada en lo que los seres humanos realmente son." Eso es precisamente lo que Ford traduce en imágenes: la violencia no es algo que deba negarse sino encauzarse mediante la ley, el orden surge desde abajo y no desde arriba, y la civilización es un logro frágil que exige coraje para sostenerse.Música Esta semana, las protagonistas de nuestra selección musical son las bandas sonoras de las películas que comentamos.

June 17, 2026 - Wednesday PM Bible Class In this episode the speaker examines the life and character of Apollos as introduced in Acts 18 and referenced throughout Acts 19, 1 Corinthians, and Titus. Using Acts 18:24–28 as the primary text, the episode explores Apollos's background (a Jew from Alexandria), his strengths (eloquence, scriptural competence, fervent spirit), and the pivotal moment when Priscilla and Aquila privately corrected his understanding of baptism. The conversation covers practical themes and biblical takeaways: be strong in the Scriptures, use your gifts for God's glory, cultivate zeal, do not let fear silence you, be humble enough to learn, accept correction with grace, welcome unexpected teachers, keep growing, and encourage other believers. The host ties these lessons to the episode's central thesis: with God there is guaranteed success — but we must be willing to get off the launch pad and act. Scripture passages discussed include Acts 18 and 19, 1 Corinthians chapters 1 and 3, and Titus 3:13. The speaker also draws on vivid analogies and anecdotes (the Apollo space-launch metaphor, a 350-mile ultramarathon example, a bursting sourdough jar, a large local insect, and John Ford's Battle of Midway footage) to illuminate courage, zeal, and the willingness to risk failure for a greater purpose. The episode highlights key biblical figures who interact with Apollos — Priscilla and Aquila who teach him, Paul whose ministry context provides contrast, and the Corinthian church where tensions about followership arise — and shows how Apollos's response to correction models a faithful balance of boldness and humility. Listeners can expect a mix of expository teaching, pastoral application, and memorable illustrations aimed at encouraging Christians to step into service despite the risk of mistakes, to receive correction with grace, and to let God receive the glory for spiritual growth and fruit.   Duration 41:19

After Joey bullies Joe into voting for the 2 Fast 2 Forever Hall of Fame (and you can, too!), we discuss the historical context of Stagecoach: it's the movie that legitimized the Western genre and inspired filmmakers for decades to come, and also the movie that turned both John Wayne and John Ford into stars. Joe shares his ties to Geronimo. We talk about the closest scenes and vehicles we've gotten to a stagecoach in the franchise, discuss a Sorcerer-esque stunt (and how that opened up a whole new path of stunts in this movie, thanks to Yakima Canutt), and the origins of the term “riding shotgun.” We try to contextualize both the racism in the film and the atrocity of the Running W stunt.

I put a jaunty bow on Heroes Month with another multi-movie episode. For #742, I'm mostly talking about John Ford's My Darling Clementine, but there's a bit at the end about John Sturges' Gunfight At The O.K. Corral and George Cosmatos' Tombstone. Clementine stars Henry Fonda as the stoic marshal Wyatt Earp and Victor Mature as the uber-talented but sickly Doc Holliday. Linda Darnell is in the mix too and they're all surrounded by a smorgasbord of character actors. Doc, Wyatt and his brothers team up to take on the Clantons in what's considered to be one of the greatest westerns. Then it's onto a much-shorter analyses of Gunfight and Tombstone, where I got to do what so many have done for 33 years: rave about Val Kilmer. So let's go, boys, to where they keep the horses and draw some guns as I give you my 3 takes on the world of Wyatt and Doc. Well, Actually: Elia Kazan was the one who took over directing Pinky after Ford was fired. Also, Dana Wheeler-Nicholson is the name of the actress in Tombstone who plays Wyatt's wife Mattie.

In this episode, I spoke with author Samuel Garza Bernstein about his latest book "Roddy McDowall: An Actor's Life". As one of the very few naturally gifted child actors who graduated into adult roles with relative ease, Roddy McDowall exuded charm throughout a glorious Hollywood run that included film, television, and Broadway. John Ford's 1941 classic How Green Was My Valley put Roddy on the map at 12-years-old. It won Best Picture over Citizen Kane and is Clint Eastwood's favorite film of all time. But Roddy's biggest claim to fame was yet to come.

In this episode I chat with visual effects supervisor, second unit director and digital pre-visualisation pioneer David Dozoretz about a career that traces the entire arc of how modern filmmaking shifted from analogue to digital — and how, somewhere in the middle of that shift, pre-vis went from a curious side experiment to a fundamental part of how films get planned and shot. David talks about growing up in Phoenix, falling in love with cinema the day his sister snuck him into the projection booth at the Cine Capri during The Empire Strikes Back asteroid sequence, and how a chance encounter with a Lucasfilm coffee-table book in a university bookstore set him on the path to ILM. He arrived at ILM in 1991 as an intern, became known as "the computer nerd in the art department and the art nerd in the computer department," and ended up bridging the gap between the two as digital began to take over.We get into his first feature — the original Jurassic Park — his year-long apprenticeship in the legendary ILM art department alongside Doug Chiang, Ty Ellingson, Harley Jessup, Mark Moore and Stefan Dechant, and the time he had to split a $1,400 piece of 3D software into two $700 purchase orders to get round ILM's general-manager sign-off threshold. It's a small story but it tells you everything about the era — digital tools were arriving faster than the institutions running things knew what to do with them.A big part of the conversation focuses on the early years of digital pre-visualisation. David did the first major digital previs sequence in mainstream cinema — the train and helicopter sequence in Brian De Palma's Mission: Impossible, the work John Knoll asked him to do that's now credited as one of the reasons the sequence got greenlit. From there he went on to spend four years working with George Lucas on The Phantom Menace, building the entire pod race in previs (a 25-minute version that almost no one has ever seen got whittled down to the 9-and-a-half-minute final), establishing his now-famous three rules of previs (no textures, no motion blur, no shadows) and then immediately having to break all three of them to convey the sense of speed and floating in the pod race itself.There are some lovely George Lucas stories too, including the time George walked into the editing room and reacted to David's droid-factory post-vis with "honestly, I was a little worried about that one — looks like it's gonna work," and the moment when George trailed off mid-sentence trying to describe a desert landscape and David — a 21-year-old kid — finished the thought with "John Ford?", which David thinks is the moment Lucas decided he could trust him. Later in the conversation we move into David's own company, Persistence of Vision, and his work on Titan A.E., Behind Enemy Lines, JJ Abrams' Mission: Impossible III, the 2009 Star Trek reboot (including the previs realisation that Vulcan being orange meant the costumes — originally designed to evoke 70s NASA — had to be completely redesigned) and Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D, where David served as second unit director on the first digital stereoscopic film and the production was effectively beta-testing the cameras Jim Cameron was building for Avatar. We finish on Zafari, David's 52-episode children's animated series rendered almost entirely in Unreal Engine — one of the earliest large-scale uses of real-time rendering in mainstream animation, which saved 30% of the production budget — and on a wider conversation about AI, the future of filmmaking, the importance of human authenticity, and David's lovely closing thought: study the art and history of cinema, study the drawing, not just the pencil. The tools will keep changing. The language won't. Topics coveredGrowing up in Phoenix and the Cine Capri projection-booth moment during EmpireDiscovering The Art of Special Effects book and the road to an ILM internshipJoining the ILM art department in 1991 alongside Doug Chiang, Ty Ellingson, Harley Jessup and Mark MooreBridging the art and computer departments as digital arrived at ILMThe $1,400 / two-$700-purchase-orders workaround for buying 3D softwareWorking on the original Jurassic Park as his first featureDoing previs for the Star Wars Special Editions (the dewback shots, Mos Eisley fly-bys)John Knoll asking him to previsualise the train-and-helicopter sequence on Mission: ImpossibleHow that previs is credited as one of the reasons the sequence got greenlitJoining the new Skywalker Ranch art department under George LucasFour years on The Phantom Menace and the 25-minute version of the pod raceThe three rules of previs (no textures, no motion blur, no shadows) — and breaking all of them to make the pod race workGeorge Lucas reacting to the droid factory post-vis ("looks like it's gonna work")The Jake Lloyd head-turn morph that saved a reshootWhy pod racers go 500 mph in some shots and 2,000 mph in othersThe cinematographer who declared previs "shit" — and was overruled by the studioFounding Persistence of Vision and the move from Lucas to wider HollywoodTitan A.E. and the Don Bluth / Gary Goldman Phoenix animation studioBehind Enemy Lines and pre-vising aerial actionMission: Impossible III with JJ Abrams — the Shanghai building swing and the windmill helicopter sequenceThe Star Trek reboot orbital skydive — and how previs forced a costume redesign because Vulcan was orangeJourney to the Center of the Earth 3D as second unit director, using Jim Cameron's pre-Avatar camerasZafari, Unreal Engine, and saving 30% of an animated TV budget through real-time renderingThe shift from analogue to digital to 3D to real-time to AI — and what stays constantDennis Muren's wisdom on authenticity at the Jurassic Park wrap partyWhy a human premium will remain in an AI-augmented filmmaking worldGeorge Lucas, John Ford and the moment a 21-year-old earned a director's trustThe advice David gives to young filmmakers: study the drawing, not just the pencilSupport the Podcast This podcast is completely independent and made possible by listener support.

#WillDodson #Comebacks #Gloria Monti #MitchHamptonInside this episode with your host, Mitch Hampton:I enjoyed the discussion with Will Dodson so much that I had to have him back for a second episode. I think this might be one of the few podcast episodes wherein we mention figures as varied as Jimmy Stewart, Woody Strode, John Ford, Chuck Vincent, Gloria Swanson, Fred Olen Ray, Wes Craven and Pam Grier, but that is the kind of thing that can happen when Will and I come into contact. Not only was I happy that Gloria Monti brought the wonderful book that is Comebacks: The Return of the Aging Film Star (Wayne State UP, 2025) into our world that she co-edited with Martin Shinglerand. They bring the story of artists like Woody Strode to future generations but I can't help but feel that, speaking philosophically, the subject or concept of the comeback itself might be one that is most integral to all of the arts in any age. I hope you share in our enthusiasm on this one.Will's Bio and Links:Will Dodson is a writer and editor; film, rhetoric, and literature professor; audio commentary and visual essay producer .He is a Lecturer of Media Studies and co-editor of The Anthem Series on Exploitation and Industry in World Cinema, Foundations of Horror Studies (Manchester UP), and American Twilight: The Cinema of Tobe Hooper (University of Texas Press). His most recent essays are “One Thing About Time:' Woody Strode's Late Films,” included in Comebacks: The Return of the Aging Film Star (Wayne State UP, 2025)Links to Will's Social Media and works:LinkTree: @linktr.ee/willdodsonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/wdodson52/Amazon Author Page ( link embedded)Additional links:Series Co-editor, The Anthem Series on Exploitation and Industry in World CinemaSeries Co-editor, Foundations of Horror StudiesCo-editor, American Twilight: The Cinema of Tobe Hooper#cinema #television #johnford #western #spaghettiwestern #expolitationmovie #blackploitation #pamgreir #jimmystewart #willaimholden #gloriaswanson #sunsetboulevard #billywider #silentmovie #1920s #1930s #1940s #1950s #1960s #1970s #1980s #1990s #directtovideo  #vhs #compactdisc #computer #bodymodification #lifeextension #genetics #race #civilrights #nativeamerican #indigenous #italy #horror #gothic #erotica #screamqueen #jimwynorski #jewelshepard #juliestrain #shannontweed #genesimmons #howardberger #bluray #restoration #jade #williamfriedkin #davidcaruso #lindafiorentino #eroticthriller #blackpanther #blackpanthers #fredwilliamson #jimbrown #jimkelly #larrycohen #joedante #jonathandemme #jonathankaplan #rogercorman #theater #thirdplace #jackiebrown #quentintarantino #robertforster #johntravolta #jackhill #claudiajennings #gatorbait #francisfordcoppola #stanleykubrick #spartacus #gorevidal #howardfast #plutarch #daltontrumbo #kirkdouglas #laurenceolivier #tonycurtis #jeansimmons #lisakudrow #hbomax #stream #sports #football #integration

John Ford said that his film Stagecoach was in many ways a western rewrite of Boule de Suif. (Summary by Wikipedia)Genre(s): General FictionLanguage: EnglishKeyword(s): maupassant (3)

John Ford's 1956 film, “The Searchers”, is often lauded as a masterpiece. It follows Ethan Edwards (John Wayne) as an unapologetically racist ex-Confederate soldier on an obsessive odyssey to find his niece who was kidnapped by Comanches. The question of what he does when he finds her is a central tension of the plot. It was one of the first films added to the National Film Registry and ranks among the greatest films of all time by the American Film Institute. But its harmful stereotypes and other obvious drawbacks make it difficult watching for modern, informed audiences. As it marks 70 years since its release, we’ll hear from Native filmmakers and others about the place “The Searchers“ holds in film history. Still image from the 2026 film, “Ceremony” (Photo: courtesy Banchi Hanuse) We’ll also hear from Nuxalk filmmaker Banchi Hanuse about her documentary film, “Ceremony“, that premieres this week at South by Southwest. The documentary examines the cultural role of ooligan fish in Hanuse’s community in Bella Coola, British Columbia, Canada.
