Phil and Emily are joined by Emmy-winning Hacks creator Lucia Aniello for Lars von Trier's Dogville (2003). Nicole Kidman's fugitive Grace hides out in a Depression-era Rocky Mountain town staged entirely with chalk outlines on a bare soundstage, and the townsfolk's charity slowly curdles into something monstrous. Paul Bettany, Lauren Bacall, Chloë Sevigny, Patricia Clarkson, and James Caan fill out von Trier's three-hour moral experiment, narrated with dry glee by John Hurt.The three dig into the chalk-outline staging as both radical theater and pure provocation, Kidman spending her post-Hours Oscar heat on the least commercial project imaginable, and where the film's brutal final turn lands two decades on. There's a real case here for reading Dogville as the most savage thing ever built to look like a filmed stage play. Cruel, funny, and unlike anything else same as the movie.Follow the show & guest:Podcast Like It's... - https://www.instagram.com/podcastlikeitsPhil Iscove - https://www.instagram.com/pmiscoveEmily St. James - https://www.instagram.com/emilystjamsLucia Aniello - https://www.instagram.com/luciaaniellosetfits

Hwæt a Movie! returns with yet another adaptation of the epic Old English poem Beowulf. This time, we've got Outlander, a surprisingly fun tale of an alien crash-landing in 8th century Norway as he hunts down the monstrous Moorwen that killed his family. Of course, the Moorwen had some cause to be angry after a genocidal attack on the Moorwen planet. But let's not dwell on how it all started. Outlander is also a Beowulf story wrapped up in a neat little sci-fi package! This time around, Jim Caviezel stars as Kainan (our space Beowulf). You might know Caviezel from 2002's The Count of Monte Cristo or from 2004's The Passion of the Christ. He's joined by the beloved John Hurt as Rolhgar (I legitimately thought he was called Hrothgar through the whole movie and I'm only learning as I write this that he was Rolhgar...), the talented Sophia Miles as Freya, the dreamy Jack Huston as Wulfric, and the inimitable Ron Perlman as Gunnar. As always, we provide an extensive summary (prepared with exhaustive detail by John) and discussion, a brief Q&A inspired by the film, and then our final ratings categories for the film's take on Beowulf, Grendel, and Grendel's mother. We conclude by rating the film for its faithfulness to the source material and then for its overall entertainment value. Like some of our other Hwæt a Movies, this one runs a bit long. There's just so much to talk about as we get deeper and deeper into the Beowulf movie swamp. As of right now, you can watch Outlander for free on YouTube here.

In our latest Session, Juliet talks to William Raban about his five decades in film, and especially his engagement with London, from his time in the London Film-Makers' Co-operative in the early 1970s to his most recent work in 2020. They discussed William's origins in the Structural and Materialist movement of the Seventies, and his use of different film formats from 8mm to digital; how he made his feature-length Thames Film (1986), narrated by John Hurt and shown on Channel 4; his A13 (1994) and Island Race (1996), made partly in response to the election of a British National Party councillor on the Isle of Dogs in east London; how authors such as Charles Dickens and T.

Soy un ser humano, no soy un monstruo. Merrick grita, suplica, perseguido por el gentío en la estación de tren de Liverpool Street, en Londres. Le acaban de arrancar el rústico saco que cubre su fealdad. Y como observadores de la ignominia nos preguntamos, no serán más horribles, más feos, los que acorralan a una persona para saciar su curiosidad malsana. La monstruosidad del que se mofa del débil, del deforme, la gentuza que lleva el celador a reírse del paciente, los niños que le arrancan el saco de lona que cubre su cabeza. David Lych se sintió atraído ipso facto por el libreto escrito por De Vore y Bergren, inspirado en las memorias del doctor Treves, cirujano y protector de Merrick hasta su muerte. La deformidad, el sufrimiento inimaginable de un hombre aquejado de una extraña dolencia, con su cabeza, rostro y cuerpo lleno de excrecencias y protuberancias. Una película conmovedora, nos desarma con ese ser vulnerable, un hombre inteligente estigmatizado por su aspecto. Solo le tratan como a un ser humano durante dos momentos en la película, en el encuentro en la habitación del hospital con la actriz teatral – Anne Bancroft- que le llama Romeo, y le coge la mano, y en su postrera liberación de su explotador – Freddie Jones- Los enanos trabajadores del circo le confortan, “Debemos ayudarnos entre nosotros”. El cirujano Treves es un hombre bueno, una lágrima surca su mejilla al ver por primera vez las condiciones y el aspecto de Merrick en la caseta donde es expuesto como una atracción de feria. Para interpretar los personajes de esta historia basada en un caso real se contó con la actores de la talla de John Hurt , que sufrió los rigores horas y horas de maquillaje y tremendas prótesis, y Anthony Hopkins, el altruista médico, que llega a invitar a su casa al paciente, y lo presenta en la sociedad victoriana de la época. Esta noche terminamos la maqueta de una catedral que solo podemos ver en nuestra imaginación… Zacarías Cotán, Salvador limón y Raúl Gallego

"The Good Listening To" Podcast with me Chris Grimes! (aka a "GLT with me CG!")
Send us Fan MailWhen Andy Gotts was 18, a stranger in Norfolk asked him why he didn't look happy. That single question and the Photography Teacher it quietly led him to, set in motion a 36 year path from a college darkroom in King's Lynn to Hollywood's most idiosyncratic black-and-white portraits.In this Stories of Distinction & Genius episode, Chris Grimes welcomes Andy "One Shot" Gotts into The Clearing to trace the whole arc: From the 300 letters with not a single reply, the 1 yes from Joss Ackland at his son's wedding in Clovelly, and the line "what do you do and who shagged who?!" that finally gave the wish list its theme. Andy talks about the 150 Actors he set out to photograph in 1995, the long, patient pursuit of Gary Oldman that ended this year through Big Mo and a young actress sliding into his DMs, and how Paul Newman himself christened him "One Shot Gotts" after a 4 minute shoot in Connecticut.The conversation moves through the people who shaped him: His milkman father leaving for work at 3:00 every morning, his devoted mother, Dr Tony Leach who taught him Photography on Saturdays in Holt, Stephen Fry whose 90 second portrait at a college Q&A genuinely started his career, and Sir John Hurt, born on the very same day as Andy's dad. Andy shares the afternoon in East Runton when John told him over a pint of red wine that he had cancer and months to live, and asked Andy back the following weekend to direct him. What followed - John in his late father's priest's robes, speaking 'Imagine' as a parable in a single take - became John Hurt's last ever recording.There are also the secret Monty Python reunion shoots at Duke's at 3:00 in the morning; LS Lowry, Hitchcock and Sidney Poitier's story about Tony Curtis and The Defiant Ones; Bob Ross's happy little clouds taking over lockdown; three years spent funding a degree as a Norfolk Nightclub Bouncer; an unwavering refusal to retouch a single line on a face; and the epitaph Ringo Starr gave him, "the Ansel Adams of faces."A warm, story-rich hour and a half about tenacity, taste, and what it really means to "stay on the bus!"

In 1985, the Disney animation studio made a dark fantasy movie that was essentially their version of The Lord of the Rings. Instead of a ring, it features a magical pig and/or a magical cauldron. Instead of a band of warriors and hobbits, it is an incompetent pig-farmer, a really old bard, a princess, and an elderly fairy. Instead of Gollum, it's a talking dog creature, and instead of Sauron, it's John Hurt voicing Skeletor from He-Man.Join our Patreon for our bonus episodes! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodPodcast Platforms: https://linktr.ee/oldiebutagoodiepodGot feedback?

Dana and Tom discuss the graphic novel film, V for Vendetta (2006) for its 20th anniversary: directed by James McTiegue, written by the Wachowskis, cinematography by Adrian Biddle, editing by Martin Walsh, music by Dario Marianelli, starring Hugo Weaving, Natalie Portman, Stephen Rea, Stephen Fry, and John Hurt.Plot Summary: Set in a grim future ruled by a harsh dictatorship, V for Vendetta follows a quiet young woman, Evey, played by Natalie Portman, who is rescued from secret police by a mysterious masked rebel, V, played by Hugo Weaving.

Nathan and Ryan take a chilling listen to The Shout (1978), a strange and unsettling British psychological horror film adapted from a story by Robert Graves. Starring Alan Bates, John Hurt, and Susannah York, the film weaves folklore, repression, and unreliable narration into a hypnotic tale about an ancient Aboriginal scream capable of killing anyone who hears it. The hosts discuss its fractured storytelling, eerie sound design, and surreal tone, exploring why The Shout remains a haunting and often overlooked gem of late-'70s art-horror.
We revisit the BBC fantasy show Merlin, hoping to enjoy it more than the pilot--and while the dynamic between Merlin and Arthur is certainly better than before, the rest of the show leaves us frustrated, not just with ignoring wide swathes of Arthurian elements, but for indulging in one of the worst sins of 21st century storytelling: the hidden emotional trauma of the nerd and his absentee father. That's right, we're cranky, and you're all gonna be mad at us again. Merlin, season 2, episode 13: "The Last Dragonlord". Starring Colin Morgan, Bradley James, John Hurt, Richard Wilson, and John Lynch. Written by Julian Jones. Directed by Jeremy Webb.

This week we're joined by British acting royalty - in every sense of the word - it's the newly knighted Sir Gary Oldman! Mum & I popped over to the Dorchester in London where Gary treated us to his (and Jackson Lamb's) very favourite Chinese meal. We heard all about Gary living in Palm Springs, the meals his mum would cook as a child, growing up in New Cross, playing Lee Harvey Oswald in JFK, living in an empty hotel during lockdown, the future of Slow Horses, and we hear an incredibly touching story of his friendship with the late John Hurt. Thank you Gary for such a delightful afternoon, what a treat to eat and chat with such an icon. The new fifth series of Slow Horses is now streaming on Apple TV+. Hosted on Acast.

A new era begins in this 686th edition of Have You Ever Seen as Ryan talks about David Lynch's mainstream breakout after Eraserhead got him noticed by this film's executive producer, Mel Brooks. The Elephant Man stars Oscar nominee John Hurt in the title role and Anthony Hopkins as his sympathetic doctor. Unusual for Lynch, his B&W biographical character piece doesn't have sex, gory violence or bad language. It's just a sensitive, affecting, sometimes sad tale about compassion, acceptance and goodness. And also John/Joseph Merrick's life-changing deformities. Hurt's makeup really was incredible. So lay down for a nap, but make sure to put your earbuds in before you doze off as this show digs into The Terrible Elephant Man.

THE SWIMMER (1968) We dive deep in to The Swimmer and discuss and analyze, maybe just a little bit the glorious film directed by Frank Perry, based on a screenplay by Eleanor Perry, from the 12 page short story by John Cheever. "Well-off ad man Ned Merrill (Burt Lancaster) is visiting a friend when he notices the abundance of backyard pools that populate their upscale suburb. Ned suddenly decides that he'd like to travel the eight miles back to his own home by simply swimming across every pool in town."If you're reading this I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

Send us a textWhat makes a horror film truly terrifying? In our deep dive into Ridley Scott's 1979 masterpiece Alien, we discover it's what you don't see that haunts you most. The slow-burning tension of the Nostromo's corridors, the cosmic horror of that derelict alien spacecraft, the shadow-cloaked xenomorph – Scott crafts an atmosphere of dread that feels as fresh today as it did over forty years ago. We explore how this film brilliantly balances restraint with shock, particularly in the infamous chestburster scene. Did you know the cast's horrified reactions were genuine? They had no idea what was about to erupt from John Hurt's chest, creating one of cinema's most authentically terrifying moments.Beyond its surface scares, Alien harbors deeper themes about corporate exploitation. The ship's very name, Nostromo, references Joseph Conrad's novel about labor exploitation – a subtle nod to how these working-class crew members are mere pawns in a corporate game. Ian Holm's android Ash embodies this corporate callousness, placing "company orders" above human lives. We dissect his brilliant performance and the shocking milk-white reveal of his true nature.For Rich, experiencing Alien for the first time led to fascinating discussions about expectations versus reality. While some of us grew up with action figures from the more combat-oriented sequels, the original's horror roots came as a welcome surprise. Dakota and Anthony share their childhood memories of encountering the franchise, from Mad Magazine parodies to that unforgettable "mouth within a mouth" design that continues to disturb.Whether you're revisiting this classic or hearing about it for the first time, join us as we celebrate the film that birthed a franchise and forever changed science fiction horror. And stay tuned – next week we're continuing our Alien journey with James Cameron's action-packed sequel, Aliens!Twitter handles:Project Geekology: https://twitter.com/pgeekologyAnthony's Twitter: https://twitter.com/odysseyswowDakota's Twitter: https://twitter.com/geekritique_dakInstagram:https://instagram.com/projectgeekology?igshid=1v0sits7ipq9yYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@projectgeekologyGeekritique (Dakota):https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBwciIqOoHwIx_uXtYTSEbASupport the show

Is it too late for her to escape by the time she realizes that something is amiss?? Power house performances by late, great legendary actors Gena Rowlands & John Hurt anchor this southern gothic tale. We hope you enjoy unlocking this fresh episode!Support the show
