Podcast appearances and mentions of John Schlesinger

Is it safe? Alex and Nick break down one of the best paranoid thrillers ever, “Marathon Man.” Stray topics include the remarkable careers of Dustin Hoffman, Roy Scheider, Laurence Olivier, and William Devane, 1976 in film, John Schlesinger's best movies, William Goldman's brilliant source novel, watching “Jaws” for the first time, and debunking the infamous “Why don't you try acting, darling?” story.Part 2 of the WAYW New Hollywood Film Project.Follow @WAYW_Podcast on Twitter and Instagram and Letterboxd.Send mailbag questions to whatareyouwatchingpodcast@gmail.com

In der aktuellen Folge vom Filmmagazin widmen wir uns dem Paranoia-Thriller „Marathon Man“ von John Schlesinger aus dem Jahr 1976. Der Film mit Dustin Hoffman, Laurence Olivier und Roy Scheider gilt als Klassiker des New Hollywood und verbindet politische Verschwörung, NS-Vergangenheit und persönliche Traumata zu einem düsteren Katz-und-Maus-Spiel. Doch kann der Film auch heute noch begeistern? Wir diskutieren, warum die Story erst spät an Fahrt aufnimmt, wieso der Thriller trotz einiger Längen seine Wirkung entfaltet – und was die ikonische Zahnarzt-Folterszene mit dem Kinopublikum der 70er gemacht hat. Außerdem geht es um Misstrauen gegenüber staatlichen Institutionen, reale Bezüge zur McCarthy-Ära und die Frage, ob der Film seiner Zeit systemkritischer war, als es auf den ersten Blick scheint.

James and Dan had never seen John Schlesinger's Oscar-winning classic Midnight Cowboy, so they watched it together and recorded a podcast about it. In this episode, they explore Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight's unforgettable performances, the film's groundbreaking approach to taboo themes in late 1960s cinema, and its gritty portrayal of loneliness, friendship, and survival in a decaying New York. “I'm walkin' here!” — and so are they.Throughout this discussion, we use terms like ‘male prostitution' or ‘prostitute,' as they relate to the language that reflects the film's era and framing, as well as the term ‘sex worker' which is the preferred modern term.Stay Connected:Twitter: @talkinfilmTikTok: @talkin_filmFacebook: You Talkin' to Me?

En el episodio 18 de esta temporada hablaremos de la película "DE REPENTE, UN EXTRAÑO" ('Pacific Heights', 1990). Este thriller psicológico dirigido por John Schlesinger nos sumerge en la historia de una joven pareja, interpretada por Melanie Griffith y Matthew Modine, que compra una casa en San Francisco con la intención de alquilar parte de ella. Sin embargo, su inquilino, encarnado magistralmente por Michael Keaton, resulta ser una auténtica pesadilla. *Sintonía de entrada: Lucidator de Saggitarius V.

The film author and teacher William J. Mann makes his first appearance on the podcast. Mann is a New York Times-bestselling author of many books on Hollywood and the American film industry, including his most recent "The Contender: The Story of Marlon Brando", for which he was granted access to Brando's private estate archive, as well as "Kate: The Woman Who Was Hepburn" (named a Notable Book of the Year by the Times); "Hello Gorgeous: Becoming Barbra Streisand: (praised by USA Today for its “meticulous research and insightful analysis”; and "Edge of Midnight: The Life of John Schlesinger", for which he worked closely with the Oscar-winning director. Mann won the 2014 Edgar Allan Poe Award for "Tinseltown: Murder, Morphine and Madness at the Dawn of Hollywood," which reveals how an unsolved murder in 1922 created the American studio system. He's recently completed "Bogie and Bacall: The Surprising True Story of Hollywood's Greatest Romance", forthcoming from HarperCollins in spring 2023. Mann is also a professor of film and popular culture at Central Connecticut State University. He's been featured in several documentary films about Hollywood history and has served as a consultant for various television programs. His interest in writing about Hollywood has always been to explore how movies both reflect and shape their times, as well as how the business of filmmaking—the selling of dreams and illusions—can reveal so much about society and ourselves.

John Schlesinger's Sunday Bloody Sunday (1971) is a deeply personal work, presaging New Hollywood while making something neither New Hollywood or the British New Wave would dare. We meet a middle-aged doctor, Daniel, and a 30 something divorced woman, Alex, who are both dating Bob, a young artist who makes them both feel alive even if he's a self-centered jerk most of the time. Like the average non-Lubitsch film about polyamory, this relationship is obviously doomed, but the exploration of Daniel and Alex's emotional journey in their final week with Bob is exquisite. Plus, we get to meet some of the most wonderfully precocious we've ever seen in a Criterion picture.

Join us with our good friend Kellie Arnold as we discuss the only X-rated film to ever win the best picture Oscar: Midnight Cowboy! From 1969 and directed by John Schlesinger. "Hey! I'm walking here!"

Our Political Thriller season continues with writer and actor Jon Millstein joining to discuss the 1985 espionage true story THE FALCON AND THE SNOWMAN starring Timothy Hutton and Sean Penn. Directed by John Schlesinger, the movie tells the fact-based tale of two disillusioned friends who embark on a dangerous hustle selling United States security secrets to the Soviet Union. With a whip smart script by Steven Zaillian (his first-ever produced) and revelatory performances from Hutton and Penn, THE FALCON AND SNOWMAN received decent reviews upon release, but was only a muted box office success. In recent years, FALCON has yet to catch a second wind, but is due for a critical reappraisal. Listen in on our discussion of this underrated espionage classic that takes diversions into Megalopolis, the Vice Presidential debate, Alfred Tennyson, Skibidi Toilet, Levitated Mass, Boss Baby, the Winter Soldier and much, much more! THE FALCON AND THE SNOWMAN is currently available to stream for free on Hoopla and PlutoTV. 

The tenth episode of our season on the awesome movie year of 1969 features one of the Venice International Film Festival's major award winners, Federico Fellini's Fellini Satyricon.

I was thinking a lot about thrillers that I watched as a kid and how many of them stayed with me longer than more kid-friendly genres. It is probably because I found them confusing and it forced my kid-brain to work twice as hard trying to figure them out. On this week's episode, I wanted to look at some of these thrillers from the 70s and 80s that stuck with me after seeing them on cable TV. They were so evocative that years later I would purposefully seek them out to fill in the blanks.First up, we have "The Conversation" from 1974, directed by Francis Ford Coppola. This thriller stars Gene Hackman as Harry Caul, a surveillance expert who becomes paranoid after recording a mysterious conversation. Coppola wrote the script in the mid-1960s but couldn't get it made until after the success of "The Godfather"? So her directed it between that film and its sequel. Worth it alone for the sound design, it is groundbreaking, earning Walter Murch an Academy Award nomination.Next is "Marathon Man" from 1976, directed by John Schlesinger. This film features Dustin Hoffman as a graduate student who gets caught up in a conspiracy involving a former Nazi war criminal, played by Laurence Olivier. One of the most famous scenes involves Olivier's character using dental torture. It is not fun. Moving on, we have "Blow Out" from 1981, directed by Brian De Palma. This neo-noir thriller stars John Travolta as a sound effects technician who accidentally records evidence of a political assassination. De Palma was inspired by Michelangelo Antonioni's "Blow-Up" (1966) and the real-life Chappaquiddick incident. Like “The Conversation,” the film's complex sound design plays a crucial role in the storytelling, making it a tremendous audio-visual experience.Finally, we have "Body Heat" from 1981, directed by Lawrence Kasdan. This steamy thriller features William Hurt and Kathleen Turner in a story of lust, deception, and murder. Turner's amazing performance as the femme fatale made her an instant star. The film was heavily influenced by classic film noir, particularly "Double Indemnity," and it brought the noir genre into the modern era with its explicit content and stylish direction.That's it for this episode of the Video Store Podcast. I hope you enjoy these picks as much as I do. Each of these films offers something unique, whether it's groundbreaking sound design, gripping suspense, or unforgettable performances. Until next time I see you in the shop, remember, be kind rewind.Subscribe to the Video Store Podcast* The Video Store Podcast* Apple Podcast* RSS This is a public episode.

Welcome back to the GGtMC!!! This week Sammy and Will discuss The Day of the Locust (1975) directed by John Schlesinger!!! We are brought to you by Arrow Video this week and the release of The Day of the Locust on Blu Ray from Arrow, please check them out!!! Emails to midnitecinema@gmail.com Adios!!!

We continue our Camp Cinema season in our sixth episode covering The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) and The Day of the Locust (1975). Special Guest: scholar, artist, author, and curator Marisa C. Hayes of the wonderful Afterimages podcast and book series.The first film discussed needs no introduction, though Dan and Chris could have used one since the Jim Sharman-directed camp classic was a first-watch for both of them. Enter Marisa to help break down why it perhaps took so many years for two Midwest suburban boys to break through its storied midnight movie status and witness its madcap genius. Then, a hard pivot to John Schlesinger's takedown of the Golden Age of Hollywood in all its messy, over-the-top glory. The proto-Babylon isn't fully self-aware of its turgid and grisly nature, though perhaps that's exactly what defines it as an underrated camp gem, though certainly an oddity that lies on the fringes of canon.

Our exit today has us looking at two immensely accomplished and talented directors producing work that does not live up to their reputations. First we will talk about The Next Best Thing directed by John Schlesinger. Next, we will discuss What Planet Are You From? directed by Mike Nichols. Both are relationship comedies of sorts and both seemed to be misfires from legendary directors who won Best Director Oscars in the 1960s. Along the way, we discuss how dated these films probably felt in 2000, our love of Garry Shandling and Rupert Everett, a Madonna musical misfire, film critic Lou Leminick, another Michael Vartan questionable character, and Ross discovers a movie that may be "too arty" for Tripp!

Dana and Tom discuss the only Best Picture winner with an X rating, Midnight Cowboy (1969): directed by John Schlesinger, music by John Barry, written by Waldo Salt, starring Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman.Plot Summary: "Midnight Cowboy" is a poignant exploration of friendship and survival in the gritty urban landscape of New York City.

Together, they embark on a journey of self-discovery and redemption, facing the harsh truths of their own identities and the unforgiving nature of the city they call home. With powerful performances from Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman, "Midnight Cowboy" is a timeless classic that delves deep into the human experience, blending heartbreak and hope in equal measure.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast) or find our Facebook page at Greatest Movie of All-Time Podcast.For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/midnight-cowboy-1969For the entire rankings list so far, go to:Full Graded List - Greatest Movies of All-Time Ronny Duncan Studios

With celebrated out filmmaker John Schlesinger at the helm, 1969's Midnight Cowboy has entered the queer canon, flaws and all. We pair it up with 2017's Beach Rats from director Eliza Hittman. 

On our 80th episode of Fabulous Film & Friends what better way to follow up a Road House podcast than by looking at the highlights of pioneering gay director John Schlesinger? We're talking about 1969's Midnight Cowboy starring Dustin Hoffman, Jon Voight, Brenda Vaccaro, John McGiver, Sylvia Miles, Bob Balaban and Barnard Hughes as well as 1971's Sunday, Bloody Sunday starring Peter Finch, Glenda Jackson, Murry Head and Dame Peggy Ashcroft topped off with 1975's The Day of the Locust starring William Atherton, Donald Sutherland, Karen Black, Burgess Meredith, Bo Hopkins, Pepe Serna, Geraldine Paige, Richard Dysart, Lil' Jackie Earl Haley, an even littler Billy Barty and Mrs. Lovey Howell, herself, Natalie Schaeffer.  I'm joined this week by the reliably ab-fab crew of my kid-sister and lit major Roseanne Caputi as well as the sensitive cowhand himself, actor, photographer and snappy patter producer par excellence Gordon Alex Robertson!  Okay, before we don the fringed suede jackets and find a spot on 43rd St., the synopses:  In Midnight Cowboy big, dumb Texan Joe Buck quits his job as a dishwasher and hops on a Greyhound to the big town, New York City with dreams of making his fortune as a male prostitute servicing rich, bored housewives on Park Avenue. After a series of cringe-inducing misfires, Joe finds himself penniless and living in a squalid, condemned apartment with a sickly, limping con man named Enrico “Ratso” Rizzo. With Ratso serving as Joe's manager the only place they can go is straight down. Barely surviving a New York winter, Joe's fortunes finally start to change for the better until a dying Ratso implores Joe to get him to Florida.  Sunday, Bloody Sunday slowly--ever so slowly-- catalogues the highs and lows of two middle-aged, upper-class Londoners, one man, Dr. Daniel Hirsch, a perennially single doctor and one woman, Alex Greville a divorcee who both find purpose and vitality in a love triangle with Bob Elkin, a young sculptor in his 20's. The three must deal with abrupt change, loss and acceptance when Bob the sculptor moves to America.  The Day of the Locust, based on the 1939 novel by Nathaniel West, follows the course of three, tragic dreamers who came to Hollywood with eyes toward stardom but end up victims of its cold-hearted excess: Tod Hacket, a somewhat idealistic --if a bit rapey set designer from Yale-- who is in love with Fay Greener, a beautiful but talentless day playing actress who refuses to date men that aren't wealthy, and none other than Homer Simpson, a simple, religious and socially awkward accountant who naively takes Fay in to live with him.  Was Mr. Schlesinger an all time great? Or a one hit wonder?  Find out! Watch this podcast on Youtube: https://youtu.be/rVaMo465c8A Follow FF&F on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/fabulousfilmandfriends 

Madeline, Julian, and Emilio continue their cycle on Unique Best Picture Winners with a "Suggestion Box" episode on the 1969 classic "Midnight Cowboy," the first and only X-Rated film to win the top Oscar. As the oldest film the trio have covered to this point, they each think it holds up spectacularly in numerous ways, such as its frenetic dual portrayals of youthful desire and repressed trauma, its iconic needle drops with Harry Nilsson's "Everybody's Talkin'," and Dustin Hoffman's inimitable overbite. Aided by myriad anecdotes along the way on the film's production and release, director John Schlesinger's greater filmography, and, as it just so happens, Emilio's freshman year at NYU, the trio follow in the footsteps of Joe Buck and Rico "Ratso" Rizzo (luckily without being forced to yell "I'm walkin' here!") and go where the filmic sun keeps shining through the pouring rain.If you enjoy our podcast, please consider writing us a positive review on your podcast platform of choice.

A Midnight Cowboy (Éjféli cowboy) 1969-ben Új Hollywood kapuján lépett át, és X besorolása ellenére óriási kasszasiker és kritikai siker lett egyaránt. John Schlesinger rendezése, Dustin Hoffman és Jon Voight játéka máig elemzések és dokumentumfilmek tárgya. Vermes Dorka  rendező (Árni, Alba Vulva, Anyák napja) társaságában beszéltünk a filmről.  Milyen filmes közegben érkezett a vásznakra az Éjféli cowboy? Dustin Hoffman és Jon Voight karrierje hol tartott 1969-ben? Milyen tabutémákkal foglalkozott forradalmi módon James Leo Herlihy eredeti regénye, és miket domborított ki ebből Waldo Salt scriptje? Beszélünk arról, mivel érdemelte ki az X besorolást, szóba jön a Hays-kóddal jelzett éra vége, valamint a francia új hullámos ihletésekről is beszélünk. Mitől számít újdonságnak Joe Buck és Rico "Ratso" Rizzo karaktere a főszerepben? Milyen a köztük lévő kapcsolat? Milyen rendezői fogásokkal nyűgözi le a nézőit Schlesinger? Természetsen beszélünk a filmben ábrázolt szexualitásról, valamint az illúziójától megfosztott New York-i közeg ábrázolásáról, amelyek kapcsán párhuzamokat találunk Dorka új filmjével, az Árnival.

With her new film Sometimes I Think About Dying now playing in the US and opening across Canada on Friday, director Rachel Lambert brings up another study of an alienated person making an unlikely connection: John Schlesinger's Oscar-winning Midnight Cowboy, a film unique in American cinema for all sorts of reasons. Your genial host Norm Wilner is walking here.

For this week's Patreon episode, we watched the 1976 thriller "Marathon Man," directed by John Schlesinger, written by William Goldman, and starring Dustin Hoffman, Laurence Olivier, Roy Scheider, William Devane and Marthe Keller.In "Marathon Man," Hoffman plays a graduate student who becomes entangled in a plot by a Nazi war criminal — and his U.S. government allies — to recover stolen diamonds. The film reflects an of-the-time fascination with the afterlife of the Nazi regime, and especially those Nazis who escaped to South America. We have nothing but positive things to say about this movie and our conversation was interesting as well.You can find "Marathon Man" for rent or purchase on iTunes and Amazon and for streaming on Paramount+. There is also a new 4K blu ray to check out, if you're so inclined.

The only movie to win an Academy Award for Best Picture with an X rating, “Midnight Cowboy” is one of those movies that once you see it, you never forget it. It broke taboos and made American movies relevant again; it both reflected the changing times and was revolutionary. And it had Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman in the indelible roles of Joe Buck and Ratso Rizzo. The late Nancy Buirski's final film, “Desperate Souls, Dark City and the Legend of Midnight Cowboy”, masterfully captures the expanding universe of “Midnight Cowboy” and the creative powerhouses who turned James Leo Herlihy's novel into legend.   Producers Simon Kilmurry and Susan Margolin join Ken on the pod to discuss “Midnight Cowboy” director John Schlesinger's vision, his influences and constraints. In what ways did a gay novelist and gay director, and a blacklisted screenwriter, infuse the film with its outsider ethos? Is/is not “Midnight Cowboy” a queer film? And how does the documentary aesthetic invigorate the movie? Simon and Susan also reflect on the legendary career of Nancy Buirski, a creative force whose life and career impacted so many in the documentary field.   “Desperate Souls, Dark City and the Legend of Midnight Cowboy” is shortlisted for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature Film.   Hidden Gems: Simon Kilmurry: “In the Shadow of Beirut” Susan Margolin: “Lovin' Stuff”   Follow: @midnight_cowboy_doc on Instagram and @SKilmurry twitter @topdocspod on Instagram and twitter   The Presenting Sponsor of "Top Docs" is Netflix.

In every part of the creative industries, there are icons. This week's guest, entertainment photographer Michael Childers, is one of those giants!Imagine you're a film student at UCLA. Kaye Ballard introduces you to the famous movie director John Schlesinger. That first meeting turns into a decades-long relationship. And that first meeting also results in a job as photographer on the set of Oscar-winning Midnight Cowboy. Where do you go from there? This week on Big Conversations, Little Bar, Michael joins hosts Patrick Evans and on a journey that began as a boy when his father gave him his first camera. All these years down the road, his famous photos of celebrities like Andy Warhol, Ann-Margret, Gore Vidal, Natalie Wood, Arnold Schwarzenegger and many more still resonate with us all. Coachella Valley residents may be surprised at the one celebrity that Michael would not photograph. He also shares details about his upcoming annual Michael Childers Presents One Night Only: Las Vegas - The Golden Age 1950-1970, coming up on November 8th at the McCallum Theatre and featuring two dozen stars from Broadway to Hollywood in a benefit for the Barbara Sinatra Children's Center. Don't miss this episode!

Episode 41: MIDNIGHT COWBOY We've made it into the twenties on our Best Picture countdown and get to chew over John Schlesinger's polarizing 1969 drama Midnight Cowboy. This is our third episode on a Dustin Hoffman film, following Rain Man and Kramer vs. Kramer. Hoffman plays Ratso Rizzo, a lowlife con man, and Jon Voigt shares the lead as Joe Buck, a naive Texas whose dreams are dashed in the Big Apple. A sordid tale of a couple of men on the lowest rung of society, is it a humanistic masterpiece or just a slog? Turn in to find out our takes on Midnight Cowboy. It ranks at number 29 on our Best Picture Countdown,* so it can't be all bad, right? Join us next week for The Sound of Music, which is pretty much the same movie. Spoiler Alert: We talk about the movie in its entirety, so if you haven't yet seen it, check it out. Or not. That ball is in your court. *What is this list? We explain it in more detail in our Trailer and its Description, but as a high-level answer: we aggregated several different lists that rank the ninety-four winners of the Best Picture Academy Award in a rough attempt to get a consensus. It is not intended to be rigorous or definitive. It's just a framework to guide our journey through cinema history.

Ira Sachs' new PASSAGES centers on a relationship broadly similar to the one at the center of SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY, but approaches it with a different level of intimacy and intensity (one that earned it an NC-17 rating before the filmmakers opted to release it unrated). We're joined once again by freelance critic and friend of the show Noel Murray to talk through the different points of characterization and performance on PASSAGES' love triangle, before looking at how the two films compare and contrast in their critiques of hetero-monogamous normativity, their ideas about suppressed jealousy and art, and their frank, arguably “graphic” depictions of homosexual desire. And in Your Next Picture Show, we offer a mini-revisitation of another John Schlesinger film that is impossible to avoid when considering this pairing.  Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY, PASSAGES, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Ira Sachs' new PASSAGES is treading ground that was broken in part by John Schlesinger's 1971 British drama SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY, which also concerns the tortured intimacies of an MMF love triangle, albeit with a bit more reserve. We're joined by freelance critic and friend of the show Noel Murray to talk over our responses to that reserved approach in relation to SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY as a product of its era and as a counterpoint to Schlesinger's previous film, MIDNIGHT COWBOY; how this portrayal of a love triangle balances desperation and dignity; and whether this movie actively hates kids, or if the Hodson children serve a greater thematic purpose. Then we reopen the BARBIE discussion with the help of a couple of listener comments in Feedback.

Encore! Writer & Director Nancy Buirski discusses with Jan Price her documentary, "Desperate Souls, Dark City and the Legend of Midnight Cowboy," -- available to watch in select theaters! A half-century after its release, Midnight Cowboy remains one of the most original and groundbreaking movies of the modern era. With beguiling performances from Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman as two loners who join forces out of desperation, blacklist survivor Waldo Salt's brilliant screenplay, and John Schlesinger's fearless direction, the 1969 film became the only Xrated film ever to win the Academy Award for Best Picture. Its vivid and compassionate depiction of a more realistic, unsanitized New York City and its inhabitants paved the way for a generation's worth of gritty movies with complex characters and adult themes.But this is not a documentary about the making of Midnight Cowboy: it is about the deeply gifted and flawed people behind a dark and difficult masterpiece, New York City in a troubled time of cultural ferment, and the era that made a movie and the movie that made an era. Featuring extensive archival material and compelling new interviews, director Nancy Buirski illuminates how one film captured the essence of a time and a place, reflecting a rapidly changing society with striking clarity.

Did ENCHANTED walk so that BARBIE could fly? Or is Greta Gerwig's blockbuster, which has us wondering if it might actually change the world, operating on a satiric level the 2007 Disney-princess pastiche could only dream of? Our panel, joined once again by Vulture/New York Magazine critic Jen Chaney, is divided on that point, but in agreement that BARBIE gives us much more to discuss in its nuanced, subversive gender critique. After talking through our responses to the world and worldviews of Barbie, Ken, and most importantly Allan, we bring ENCHANTED back into the discussion to see how it stacks up to its successor in its big musical production numbers, fish-out-of-water comedy, and ability to create an “authentically artificial” world. Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about ENCHANTED, BARBIE, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Glenda Jackson plays part of a love triangle in John Schlesinger's follow up to his Oscar winning Midnight Cowboy.

With incredible performances in films like “Midnight Cowboy,” “Coming Home,” “Deliverance,” and “Runaway Train,” Jon Voight has earned himself a spot in the acting Pantheon. At 84, he has never stopped working. Seven seasons of “Ray Donovan” being a recent highlight. On this episode, he talks about how he “starts slow” when developing an approach to a character, letting “things drop into my psyche.” He pinpoints directorial characteristics of John Schlesinger (director of “Midnight Cowboy”) that worked well for him, details a scrappy fight scene with Jonathan Rhys Meyers on his latest film “Mercy,” reminisces about working with Cassavetes on “Love Streams” the play, and much more! “Mercy” is Select Theaters now, On Digital May 19, and On Demand June 2.
