PENDENTE: Rubrica su Cinema, letteratura, fumetto ed esperienze culturali

Una rubrica in cui esprimo la mia personalissima opinione su film che, pur non essendo necessariamente capolavori o film iconici, hanno lasciato qualcosa al pubblico. Meno famoso del fratello Martin ma altrettanto brillante, John Michael McDonagh è autore e regista di bizzarri eppure non banali film. "Crazy Dirty Cops" è il suo personale omaggio al cinema americano degli anni '70, girato con ironia perfida ma anche con inaspettata tenerezza.

Blake and Jamison begin their season-long descent into Irish madness with the films of Martin and John Michael McDonagh by watching and talking about love and honor in 2008's In Bruges and 2011's The Guard. Really it ends up being us talking about our man crushes on Brendan Gleeson. We show our cards on which brother we are picking to win this battle of blood(lines) and we seek restitution for any Irish guilt we have. Also, we talk about Blake's stutter when he was younger, how EVERY movie is a completely different film for Jamison than it is for any other person, and we continue to court the attention of the sex boutique shoppe called Aphrodesia(?) in the Bremerton area of Seattle for potential sponsorship opportunities.

Nueva temporada. En el episodio de hoy hablamos sobre «Solo ante el peligro», de Fred Zinnemann, protagonizada por un oscarizado Gary Cooper. Como todas las obras geniales esta película magistral es una historia que va más allá de sí misma. La pequeña historia del Oeste, de un sheriff modesto y apacible, de su mujer-esposa de dos horas, de su antigua amante, de los vacilantes y los cobardes y los bienintencionados y los envidiosos de la ciudad. Es la historia del arranque final de la mujer cuando oye el primer disparo, cuando ve lo que sólo había imaginando; es, finalmente, la historia del triunfo melancólico y del desdén del hombre que se aleja con la mujer, dejando caer al suelo la estrella, sin volver los ojos para mirar a la ciudad que quiso salvar pero no pudo estimar. Hablamos con David, como no puede ser de otra manera, sobre su último libro «Filosofía andante», editado por Ediciones Monóculo y sobre su «Ética para valientes», editado por RIALP.

"Should men cry?" is a question that literally no one asks anymore because we all know that the correct answer is "of course, as long as it's done in the right way", that is to say that it's expressed in a manner which continues to conform to society's expectations and understanding of masculinity and male vulnerability. Shedding tears from extreme physical pain is permitted as is using it as part of a cheap seduction routine, exactly as Sidey's friend did during a screening of TITANIC which he still feels so bitter about some 20 years later. But will that movie make it into this week's Top 5 Crying scenes? I wouldn't have thought so but let's see what the Dads offer up.  Howie chose this week's main feature, John Michael McDonagh's THE GUARD, a buddy cop crime caper with a strong cast. Brendan Gleeson, probably best known for his work as Victor in THE SMURFS 2 received acclaim for his contribution alongside Don Cheadle (SWORDFISH) and Mark Strong who played Dave Summers in 1998's THE MAN WITH RAIN IN HIS SHOES. Yes, as you can possibly tell by now I haven't actually seen this movie or indeed heard of it before today which makes writing this part of the show notes tricky. At the risk of trivializing what may be a great movie I've never heard of before and am yet to enjoy, all I really want to know is does Don Cheadle do a silly Irish accent?  I often find myself wondering whether centaurs still exist is another way of saying I've literally never had that thought before but there's no doubt some nutballs out there somewhere who can provide charts and diagrams and theories proving the part human, part horse creatures were in fact real and actually still are. Netflix's CENTAURWORLD also boasts a list of great and varied performers with the likes of Swedish folk duo First Aid Kit and Arrested Development's Tony Hale working alongside Jamie Cullum, Wendy Malick and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje in an animated series exploring the strange world inhabited by these truly disgusting and unnatural abominations. We love to hear from our listeners!

We have a very hearty conversation this week for an absolutely incredible film on #whatsavesus. CALVARY, written and directed by John Michael McDonagh and starring Brendan Gleeson is a complex film with a very simple premise: a man who has suffered years of abuse as a child at the hands of a priest determines that he will kill the innocent local priest in retribution. The priest (Gleeson) has one week to set his affairs in order, and he spends that week continuing to pastor the eclectic, often very cynical people of the town, hoping to do some good before he must face his threatened end. The film confronts the burden of a broken world and the fractures of a broken church with startling insight, disarming wit, and profound sense of humanity. It is a film of remarkable power, unlikely to be forgotten once you've seen it.We have a challenging and hopeful discussion about it; one we think you won't want to miss.5:30 - Business Time12:23 - TED LASSO, Season 2, Episodes 5 & 642:58 - CALVARYSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Two Philosophers Drink Beer & Discuss Film

In this episode, we discuss the 2014 film 'Calvary', directed by John Michael McDonagh and starring Brendan Gleeson. Our discussion highlights, as central to this film, an examination of whether or not Christianity holds any relevance for today's society. Along these lines, we start by outlining the contemporary situation of nihilism that each of the characters seem to occupy in the film. We then explore the difference between Christianity, as a particular worldview with an accepted doctrine upheld by the church establishment, and the phenomenology of Christian life, which offers a way of describing specific lived experiences independent from any ideological system of thought and which cannot be accounted for within a traditional Greek philosophical framework. Our discussion concludes by considering the lived experience of forgiveness as a value from the biblical tradition that Calvary deems to still hold significance for our time. These reflections are accompanied by a couple of basic lagers from Hüfi and Tuborg. Follow us on twitter.com/twophilpodcast or instagram.com/twophilpodcast to get involved with the discussion.

During the episode the gang does a deep dive on Martin McDonagh (specifically one of his plays, “The Pillowman” – we’ll explain), reexamines the 2017 Academy Awards, and just gushes over the ENTIRE cast of the film. Also, this week Alicia recommends McDonagh’s first feature film “In Bruges” (currently on HBO), Ian recommends a film by Martin’s brother, John Michael McDonagh – “Calvary” (available to rent on most major platforms), and Adam recommends the 80s high school classic “Better Off Dead”.

In this episode of the podcast, Fr Parker talks about an amazing film called Calvary. Directed by John Michael McDonagh, Calvary depicts the final days of a Priest's life after he is threatened with death in the confessional. A very powerful film that in so many ways is tragic, but in the most important way, is very hopeful. “Do not despair; one of thieves is saved. Do not presume; one of the thieves is damned.

Han tar sig dock till en småstad där han inte är känd, och fejkar till sig en präst-post. Vaudeville eller vådevill är ett lustspel med sånginslag, ofta med satirisk eller parodisk tendens.[1] Ordets ursprung är något oklart, men kan komma från franskans voix de ville - stadens ljud, eller från en dal i Normandie, Val de Vire.[2] Som teatergenre föddes vaudevillen i början av 1700-talet med författare som Alexis Piron, Jean-François Regnard och Alain-René Lesage. Under 1800-talet märks främst författare som Eugène Scribe och Eugène Labiche. I Sverige introducerades genren 1781 genom Carl Envallsson, och den första svenska vaudevillepjäsen anses vara Carl Israel Hallmans pjäs Tillfälle gör tjufven från 1783.[3] I Danmark blev vaudevillen mycket populär under 1820-talet främst genom Johan Ludvig Heibergs pjäser.[4] I USA har vaudeville ungefär samma betydelse som europeiska varieté,[4] och kan ha alla möjliga typer av underhållare; sångare, komiker, illusionister, djurdomptörer, akrobater med mera. Många av de artister som senare kom att göra radio eller film som till exempel W.C. Fields, Buster Keaton, Bröderna Marx, Edgar Bergen och The Three Stooges debuterade först inom vaudeville. A Spike Lee Joint var från hans ANDRA film "She's gotta have it" - så endast hans första film Joe's Bed-Stuy Barbershop: We Cut Heads var joint-free. Tredje filmen var School Daze och fjärde Do the Right Thing.

If you're a "Happy Sad Confused" listener you already know Domhnall but today it's time to recognize the accomplishments of dear old dad, Brendan. And there's a lot to recognize.  Brendan only became a feature film actor in his mid 30s but he's made up for lost time ever since, working with the likes of Scorsese, Martin and John Michael McDonagh, Danny Boyle, John Boorman, Neil Jordan, and countless other notables. In this chat with Josh, he talks about what he needed to learn about film acting when he made the leap, embracing the magical world of Harry Potter, and at long last working for the Coen brothers in the upcoming "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs". Plus, Gleeson talks about making the plunge into television for Stephen King and David E. Kelly in the series, "Mr. Mercedes". The 2nd season premieres August 22nd on the Audience Network.

Dalton and Dustin are back with War on Everyone which is oddly appropriate for the week of the Fourth of July.   According to Wikipedia: War on Everyone is a 2016 British black comedy buddy cop film written and directed by John Michael McDonagh. The film stars Alexander Skarsgård, Michael Peña, and Theo James. Set and filmed in Albuquerque, New Mexico, it was screened in the Panorama section of the 66th Berlin International Film Festival. We heat up some fun conversation as we talk about discourses of violence, America viewed from the outside, police brutality, nuance in religion and gender/sexuality and a movie we overall felt was kind of a mess.

Edith's guest this week is fast establishing a reputation as a filmmaker of wit, originality and imaginative flair. In his short career as a writer / director, John Michael McDonagh has brought us 3 features, all of which have been characterised by taut narrative, black comedy and whip-crack dialogue. First up was The Guard, starring Brendan Gleeson and Don Cheadle, which is officially the most financially successful Irish independent movie of all time. Then came Calvary, a darkly humorous drama about a priest tormented by his community. Now he’s crossed the Atlantic with War On Everyone, another twisted comedy in which Alexander Skarsgård and Michael Peña play a pair of tearaway New Mexico cops. John’s heartfelt passion for music is reflected in the wide variety of artists he’s used in his work. During the course of our conversation, you’ll hear tunes from The Clash, The Fun Loving Criminals, REM, M.O.P and John Denver, among many, many others. We’ll also discuss his collaborations on score with Calexico, Patrick Cassidy and Lorne Balfe.

Confira uma mini-entrevista sobre como foi a produção deste curta e quais são os seus planos para o futuro. Voltando à programação normal, esta semana saíram três trailers de produções bem bacanudas: A comédia e releitura da série oitentista Anjos da Lei, de Phil Lord e Chris Miller. O suspense dramático e filme que o Julio Almeida espera ansiosamente We Need to Talk About Kevin, de Lynne Ramsay. O terror assombroso The Innkeepers, de Ti West. Esta semana estamos bem providos de estréias: tem o drama irlandês O Guarda, de John Michael McDonagh, o possivelmente divertido Terror na Água 3D, de David R. Ellis, a aventura futurista O Preço do Amanhã, de Andrew Niccol, o drama misturado com ficção científica A Pele que Habito, de Pedro Almodóvar, e o terror A Casa dos Sonhos, de Jim Sheridan. Não tem desculpa para não ir ao cinema. O tema do último bloco, o já tradicional Bloco do Ouvinte, foi sugerido pela Lúcia Queiroz Dias, de São José do Rio Preto - São Paulo. Ela queria saber as novidades e como anda a cinessérie James Bond. Confira logo abaixo no nosso On Demand. Já esqueceu?
