Director Sophie Hyde and Aud Mason Hyde talk about their film Jimpa with Emmy Winner Charlotte Robinson host of OUTTAKE VOICES™.  Jimpa premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film stars Olivia Colman and John Lithgow and is about when filmmaker Hannah (Colman) and her nonbinary teen, Frances (Aud Mason Hyde) journey to Amsterdam to reconnect with their estranged father and grandfather Jimpa (Lithgow) things unravel in unexpected ways. Frances' desire to stay with Jimpa for a full year tests Hannah's beliefs about parenting, identity and family. As tensions surface Jimpa weaves a tender, emotionally charged portrait of queer kinship, legacy and the fragile bonds between parents and children. Directed by Sophie Hyde Jumpa is a semi-autobiographical work from Hyde who stated, “Casting a version of yourself is not an easy task. It's very tricky to do and so there's a part of the story that's incredibly sort of drawing on our real lives and then there's a whole lot of fiction as well. Obviously there's Jim and there's also Aud who is my child and they're a bit older than Frances, but there's elements of the relationship between Hannah and Frances that definitely are in us.” Like Hyde Hannah's a married film artist from Adelaide, the mother of a transgender, nonbinary teenager and the daughter of a father who came out gay when she was a child. We talked to Sophie Hyde and Aud Mason Hyde about their film Jimpa at the Provincetown International Film Festival & their spin on our LGBTQ issues. Sophie Hyde is an acclaimed Australian film director, writer and producer known for intimate character-driven films like 52 Tuesdays, Animals and Good Luck to You, Leo Grande often exploring gender, identity and relationships with unique perspectives. Co-founder of Closer Productions she's celebrated for her Sundance-winning debut 52 Tuesdays her Emma Thompson-led comedy Leo Grande and impactful documentaries, consistently bringing authentic and personal stories to screen.

Our Holiday Series rolls on as 3 Guys and a Flick unwraps Daddy's Home 2, the loud, ridiculous, and surprisingly warm Christmas sequel that reunites Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg for a “Together Christmas” that never had a chance. This time, the festivities go completely off the rails when two grandpas crash the party — Mel Gibson's ultra-macho wildcard and John Lithgow's soft-spoken sweetheart — turning peace, love, and goodwill into competitive dad energy cranked to eleven. Add in John Cena, over-the-top set pieces, and nonstop holiday absurdity, and you've got a recipe for festive mayhem. We break down the biggest laughs, the best running gags, the cast chemistry, and whether this sequel earns its spot on the holiday watchlist. Expect spoilers, sarcasm, belly laughs, and just enough Christmas heart to keep the lights twinkling.

It's "Die Hard on a Mountain" week as we explore two films with similar alpine settings, but from opposite ends of the budgetary spectrum. First, Sylvester Stallone races to prevent a group of criminals led by John Lithgow from finding three suitcases full of money in CLIFFHANGER (1993). Then CRACKERJACK (1994) sees Thomas Ian Griffith face off against Christopher Plummer at a Rocky Mountain resort taken over by terrorists looking for a mafia don's diamonds.

Tonight we have a Christmas-themed triple feature of public-domain movies as heard from the projection booth: The Star of Bethlehem (1950), Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1948), and Scrooge (1935).We'll also be running trailers from three really bad Christmas movies: Die Hard 2, Santa Conquers the Martians, and Santa Claus (1985). Plus one trailer for a really good Christmas movie, Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas. Rounding things out will be favorite 1980s-ish Christmas commercials and other vintage theater messaging (and a random appliance warehouse ad bc I want it stuck in everyone else's head too).So — The Star of Bethlehem was the only work I was familiar with before beginning this week's episode. It's inclusion is a shout-out to my late father, for his insistence that we make it to the midnight service to hear this story told again and again and again. Miss you, Dad.Religiosity aside, it's an astonishingly beautiful work. I have a computer, and I couldn't dream of producing something this wonderful. If you gave me a time machine to the 1950s, my MacBook, and pitted me against the creative team of Lotte Reiniger and Carl Koch, I would lose every time.Reiniger created articulated paper figures from spare cardboard and other materials, and the team animated them on glass over painted backgrounds. (Preservationists studying her paper figures believe they can tell what she was eating during production, based on what material ended up in the dolls.) One of their rigs also looked like the best bunk bed ever — photo on wiki. Honestly, give me a time machine just so I can hang out with this crew, they seem cool.Rudolph (1948) feels lower-budget by comparison. This is not Rankin/Bass Rudolph, man. It's based on Robert L. May's 1939 story, not the song. And to steal an internet meme: this is Zack Snyder Rudolph. Hard times — you can feel them oozing out of that steely, cold color palette. Which makes sense: World War II had just ended when production began.Going further back in time brings us to our feature film Scrooge (1935). The acting is solid and includes an Ebenezer expert (Seymour Hicks) as the lead. Variety, literally said Hicks could play Ebenezer upside down in its December 11, 1935 issue. And that Hicks played Scrooge for more than a quarter century both onstage and in two films including a silent Scrooge in 1913.As for trailers:Die Hard 2 — which is just Die Hard with the melodrama turned all the way up and relocated to an airport. Also, I'm positive the airplane-eject scene for John McClane was later pilfered by the GoldenEye folks… and it's nowhere near as cool.Santa Conquers the Martians, which I briefly toyed with making the feature; is awful.And Santa Claus (1985)... Last year my family stumbled onto a smart tv Christmas-movie list, and I saw Santa '85 and said, “Hon, I have a movie that will blow your ****** mind. It's like Superman meets Kris Kringle and is still earnest. Everyone is acting out of their brains. It's like Shakespeare. Like if Frank Miller did Shakespeare doing Superman.”And then I hit play like I was firing a heat-seeking photon torpedo at General Chang.Three minutes later, we're watching Santa drown in snow. A few minutes after that: bizarre McDonald's product placement. A scene of people merrily eating Quarter Pounders while, through the window, an unhoused and hungry child stares lustfully at the food consumption. His face framed by the Golden Arches.The movie is bad. But awesome bad. See it for John Lithgow, as an evil toymaker who excels at selling extremely dangerous **** to children. And Dudley Moore is a charming mutinous elf that tries to outdo Santa by creating candy canes that make children float. Definitely see it.And happy holidays, y'all.PS: If you're looking for an uncommon ambience episode with a more modern Scrooge, check out last year's ⁠The Night the Reindeer Died⁠: Christmas Workshop Ambience. "Yule love it."

Get access to this entire episode, the entire Denzember catalog, and all of our premium episodes by becoming a Hit Factory Patron for just $5/month.Denzember 2 continues with the return of Vulture Film Critic Bilge Ebiri and a spirited discussion of Russel Mulcahy's 1991 thriller Ricochet, a film of lean premise that takes its story to absolutely batshit places at every turn. With the ever-capable journeyman director Mulcahy at the helm, a sturdy script from Die Hard writer Steven E. de Souza, and committed performances from Denzel Washington and John Lithgow, the film finds a way to make every one of its scenes memorable by maintaining its ludicrous energy from start to finish and finding lurid thrills behind every corner.We begin with an appraisal of our experiences with Ricochet, and the delight of finding a film marketed as a boilerplate thriller doing everything it can to shock and disarm you. Then, we examine the deceptively intelligent plotting of the film, pitting Denzel's Assistant DA Nick Styles - an ambitious Black lawyer seeking opportunity in the justice system- against not just Lithgow's psycopathic murderer on a quest for revenge but also the collective biases of the media and elite centers of institutional power that readily see Styles as an interloper in their predominantly white spaces. Finally, we discuss the rare position of Denzel as a movie star, how he stands singularly as both an actor of profound versatility and one that inhabits an intoxicating Movie Star persona.Follow Bilge Ebiri on Twitter....Our Denzember theme some is "Funk" by Oppo.

Nathan and Ryan dive into the icy, offbeat world of Out Cold (1989), a dark comedic thriller where John Lithgow plays a mild-mannered dry cleaner who gets tangled up in murder, manipulation, and one very bad night. The hosts break down the film's strange blend of noir, black comedy, and suburban paranoia, Lithgow's pitch-perfect unraveling, and how this forgotten oddity quietly became a cult gem. From frozen corpses to marital double-crosses, Drive-In Double Feature warms up this chilly, underrated slice of late-'80s weirdness.

HO HO HO! The holidays are upon us, and the boys are cooking up a holiday feast of disasters, starting with 1985's holiday miss, Santa Claus: The Movie.Steve and Justin head to the North Pole to figure out if it's even possible to tell a straightforward Santa origin story. The lore is messy, the rules are obtuse, and the magic would drive a man to madness.But the real question is: how can you spend this much money, build sets this big, create special effects this good, have John Lithgow chew the scenery this hard… and it's still SOOOOO BORING???Follow us on Instagram to stay updated about our monthly live shows!Check out more from Justin here: justindodd.rocks Check out more from Steve here: stevejhward.comdrinkgenies.com

"We're back, Mortimer!" Sæson 11 er hermed i maskinen, og vi starter et helt nyt sted: Vi åbner nemlig glemmekassen. Det er den der snavsede plastikkasse bagerst i videobutikken (eller på SFO'en), fyldt til randen med alle de film, vi af uforklarlige årsager har glemt at tale om. Det er de åbenlyse klassikere, de personlige hjertebørn og de titler, der egentlig burde ha' været med for længst. Aftenens menu er den perfekte tretrins-raket, der starter pænt, dykker ned i ægte kult og slutter et sted midt imellem med fuld smadder. Ask får æren af at skyde løjerne i gang og tager os med til Toontown med en film, der vitterligt er en del af vores film-DNA: 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit' (1988). Det er Zemeckis i teknisk topform, film noir forklædt som tegnefilm, og et magisk stykke filmhistorie. Niels følger trop og hiver os væk fra Hollywoods A-liste og direkte ned i atomaffaldet med filmen, der forklarer alt om hans filmsmag: 'The Toxic Avenger' (1984). Hør oprindelseshistorien om, hvordan han så den som 9-årig, troede den var mainstream, og blev formet for livet af Troma-snask. Sonny runder aftenen af og rammer den perfekte balance med 'Ricochet' (1991). Her møder Denzel Washington med en frisk Oscar i baglommen John Lithgow, der har skruet psykopat-knappen op på 11 og knækket den af. Tusind tak til alle jer, der lytter med, og en helt særlig tak til jer i Klub Moviebox, der holder liv i maskineriet og finansierer vores VHS-rens. Tak for støtten! Og HUSK: Spol altid episoden tilbage, når du har lyttet færdigt! Med venlig hilsen, Ask, Sonny, Niels & Casper

Andrew Gordon & John Humphrey react to Dexter Season 4, Episodes 9–12, the shocking and unforgettable conclusion to one of TV's greatest seasons. Starring Michael C. Hall (Six Feet Under, Gamer) as Dexter Morgan, this Showtime classic follows a forensic blood spatter analyst for the Miami Metro Police Department who moonlights as a serial killer targeting other murderers. Season 4 raises the stakes with the arrival of Arthur Mitchell, aka The Trinity Killer, played by John Lithgow (Third Rock from the Sun, The Crown), in a career-defining, Emmy-winning performance. As Dexter attempts to balance his double life as a husband, father, and killer, his cat-and-mouse relationship with Trinity becomes a masterclass in tension, manipulation, and psychological unraveling. The supporting cast includes Julie Benz (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel) as Rita Morgan, Jennifer Carpenter (Limitless, The Exorcism of Emily Rose) as Debra Morgan, James Remar (The Warriors, Django Unchained) as Dexter's adoptive father Harry, Lauren Vélez (Oz, Ugly Betty) as Captain Maria LaGuerta, and C.S. Lee (Chuck) as the quirky forensic tech Masuka.

In Nerd Culture #231 duiken we diep in de galaxy far, far away, letterlijk én figuurlijk. Adam Driver onthult dat hij samen met Steven Soderbergh een Kylo Ren-film pitchte die door Disney werd afgewezen, terwijl Jim Carrey bijna de rol van Jack Sparrow speelde in Pirates of the Caribbean. Daarnaast bespreken we de toekomst van Star Wars (inclusief een on hold gezette Rey-film en Finchers bijna-project), de komst van een Horizon Zero Dawn-film in 2027, en het bizarre nieuws dat Netflix, Amazon en Apple interesse hebben om Warner Bros over te nemen.Verder checken we nieuwe trailers van Devil in Disguise, Predator: Badlands en Pluribus, plus een crossover tussen Transformers en G.I. Joe. En ja — er zijn zelfs SpongeBob-sneakers. Het wordt weer een aflevering vol filmnieuws, nostalgie, en een flinke dosis nerdy verwondering.Disney wees The Hunt for Ben Solo afIn een alternatieve galaxy far, far away hadden we misschien een Star Wars-film gekregen van Adam Driver en Steven Soderbergh. In een interview met AP onthulde Driver dat hij samen met Soderbergh en scenarist Scott Z. Burns twee jaar werkte aan een script getiteld The Hunt for Ben Solo. De film zou zich afspelen na The Rise of Skywalker en draaien om Ben Solo's zoektocht naar verlossing.Lucasfilm zou enthousiast zijn geweest over het plan, maar Disney trok uiteindelijk de stekker eruit. Volgens Driver zagen Bob Iger en Alan Bergman “niet hoe Ben Solo nog kon leven.” Een gemiste kans, want volgens de acteur was het “één van de vetste scripts” waar hij ooit aan meewerkte. In de podcast bespreken we waarom juist dit project fans had kunnen verzoenen met de sequel-trilogie — en of Disney te bang is geworden om risico's te nemen met Star Wars.Jim Carrey als Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean?Voordat Johnny Depp zijn iconische rol als Captain Jack Sparrow kreeg, was niemand minder dan Jim Carrey in beeld voor Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Producent Jerry Bruckheimer en regisseur Gore Verbinski zagen in hem de perfecte mix van humor en charisma om Disney's nieuwe piratenfilm te dragen. In de vroege jaren 2000 was Carrey immers een gegarandeerde box office-hit.Maar Carrey sloeg het aanbod af om te werken aan Bruce Almighty, wat uiteindelijk ook een enorm succes werd. Volgens insiders zou zijn versie van Jack Sparrow een meer cartooneske, over-the-top piratenheld zijn geweest — meer Bugs Bunny dan Keith Richards. Uiteindelijk koos Disney voor Johnny Depp, wiens excentrieke interpretatie de film naar miljardenstatus katapulteerde. In de podcast bespreken we hoe anders Pirates of the Caribbean eruit had gezien met Jim Carrey aan het roer… en of dat misschien beter was geweest.Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #23100:00:14 Kunst van een kijker00:03:40 Volgende Nerd Culture Watchparty00:05:45 Wat hebben we gekeken/gelezen/geluisterd?00:07:00 Splinter Cell00:10:37 IT: Chapter One00:18:01 Gen V00:21:12 9-1-1: Nashville (helaas nog niet)00:24:12 Devil in Disguise Trailer00:27:34 Horizon Zero Dawn-film komt in 202700:35:48 Jim Carrey bijna Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean00:42:01 Netflix, Amazon & Apple azen op Warner Bros00:48:35 Adam Driver's afgewezen Kylo Ren-film00:52:48 David Fincher's geannuleerde Star Wars-project00:54:50 Rey-film tijdelijk on hold00:56:00 Winstgevendheid Star Wars eindelijk onthuld00:59:28 Predator: Badlands Trailer01:02:27 Transformers X G.I.

Can you improvise a musical? Sure, you can. But isn't it hard to do? Absolutely. That's why hardly anyone does it. I mean, who wants to do hard things? Well, Jessica McKenna and Zach Reino do. They're the hosts and creators of Off Book, a podcast where they improvise a whole new musical with each episode. They've also appeared on shows like Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, The Goldbergs, and Comedy Bang! Bang! (forgive our use of exclamation points, Sleepyheads). Jessica and Zach travel a lot and they sure do love tiki bars. You know with the pineapples and the garish decor and all that. They join John Moe to talk about the forgotten (and perhaps made up) oyster musical Oyster Ranch, the role of the “Edward Albee” in a theater, and all the things, like airplanes, that should be made tiki.Hey Sleepy Heads, is there anyone whose voice you'd like to drift off to, or do you have suggestions on things we could do to aid your slumber? Email us at:  sleepwithcelebs@maximumfun.org.Follow the Show on:Instagram @sleepwcelebsTwitter @SleepWithCelebsTikTok @SleepWithCelebsJohn is on Twitter @johnmoe.John's acclaimed, best-selling memoir, The Hilarious World of Depression, is now available in paperback.Join | Maximum FunIf you like one or more shows on MaxFun, and you value independent artists being able to do their thing, you're the perfect person to become a MaxFun monthly member. 

Nick takes a deep dive into one of the most important turning points in Saturday Night Live history — Season 12. After the chaotic collapse of Season 11, Lorne Michaels returned, cleaned house, and rebuilt the show from the ground up. The result was a brilliant reinvention that launched a new era of comedy greatness. This season introduced future legends like Dana Carvey, Phil Hartman, Jan Hooks, Kevin Nealon, Jon Lovitz, and Dennis Miller, along with instant classics such as The Church Lady, Tommy Flanagan, The Sweeney Sisters, and Mr. Subliminal. Nick revisits all 20 episodes, sharing behind-the-scenes stories, memorable sketches, and standout moments from hosts including Garry Shandling, Sam Kinison, Sigourney Weaver, John Lithgow, Willie Nelson, and Bill Murray. A true comeback season that restored SNL's legacy — funny, fearless, and unforgettable. [Ep 146]

There's a great movie hiding somewhere inside The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai—but you'll need a map, a microscope, and probably a flux capacitor to find it. Despite its gloriously weird premise and a cast that includes Peter Weller, Jeff Goldblum, John Lithgow, and Christopher Lloyd, the film feels like the cinematic equivalent of someone dumping every genre into a blender and forgetting to hit “mix.” What could have been a clever cult adventure ends up as a directionless mishmash that mistakes confusion for complexity. The biggest sin here isn't that the film is weird—it's that it's aimlessly weird. One moment it's a rock 'n' roll adventure, the next it's a dimension-hopping sci-fi, and then suddenly it's a love story or a satire. The problem is it never commits to any of those identities long enough for the audience to care. Every cool idea is buried under three others that go nowhere, leaving the viewer dazed rather than dazzled. And while the cast is stacked with talent, even they can't bring focus to the chaos. Weller plays Buckaroo like a man who just read the script five minutes before filming, while Lithgow chews scenery in a way that's entertaining only because nothing else is. The movie keeps hinting at depth—a sprawling universe, quirky characters, offbeat humor—but it never follows through. It's as if someone wrote ten beginnings and forgot to write an ending. At the end of the day, Buckaroo Banzai isn't strange enough to be a great cult film and not coherent enough to be a good one. It's a cinematic shrug—full of potential, short on payoff, and surprisingly dull for something that promises interdimensional adventure. A “so bad it's good” movie at least makes you laugh; this one just makes you wish it would pick a lane and go somewhere—anywhere—interesting.

Welcome to the DMF! I'm Justin Younts, and today I'm diving into the fascinating world of You Murderer through the eyes of Alan Katz.This episode was a unique challenge, as it was shot entirely from the perspective of a dead man—a bold concept that director Bob had envisioned from the start. Alan described the experience as unlike anything else, requiring incredible creativity and collaboration from the entire team.Bob's approach to filmmaking was all about teamwork and innovation, and Alan had the privilege of being part of that process. Together, they built a full four-wall set and involved the entire crew in rehearsal—something rarely done in the industry. The environment Bob created encouraged everyone to contribute ideas, and Alan noted how it made creativity truly thrive on set.Alan also had the chance to work with remarkable talents like Isabella Rossellini and John Lithgow, experiences he described as surreal and unforgettable. For him, You Murderer was more than just an episode—it was a masterclass in collaboration and storytelling.If you're curious about the behind-the-scenes magic of filmmaking and want to hear how Alan and the team tackled such a groundbreaking concept, stick around as we explore his stories and insights from this incredible journey.00:00:00 - Introduction00:00:05 - Discussing 'You Murderer'00:01:50 - Bob's Filmmaking Style00:04:29 - Working with Bob00:06:22 - Talking about 'Yellow'00:06:37 - Working with Famous Actors00:09:54 - Working with Buck Henry00:11:17 - Discussing 'Whirlpool'00:14:33 - ConclusionCheck out his other podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-how-not-to-make-a-movie-podcast/id1616014436⁠https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0441623/⁠⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-how-not-to-make-a-movie-podcast/id1616014436⁠⁠https://thedonorpodcast.com/

Zo just witnessed the most fascinating news conference: the most famous man in the world: neurosurgeon, rock star, physicist and martial arts expert, Dr. Buckaroo Banzai, had just announced that he and his tightknit crew - the Hong Kong Cavaliers recently perfected a way to cross into a completely different dimension. While in this strange new dimension Dr. Banzai had seen strange beings and fantastic landscapes. Dr. Banzai even captured one of the creatures from this other dimension and brought it back to Earth, but, from the way it looks, Zo believed that it was better to leave the dimensional barrier shut.
