Podcasts about Julie Harris

Joan Van Ark takes listeners behind the scenes of her iconic 14-year run on "Knots Landing" and the serendipitous path that led her there. The accomplished actress reveals how teenage heartbreak—when high school quarterback Russell James asked another girl to prom instead of her—sparked her acting career at age 14 with a single audition line: "Violet, sir?" This rejection led to a scholarship at Yale Drama School, making her only the second actress after Julie Harris to receive this honor straight out of high school. In a full-circle moment, Julie Harris was later cast as her mother on Knots Landing, with Van Ark screaming in excitement when she learned the news. She shares the story of her proudest work—the iconic five-minute uninterrupted "face washing scene" where her character Valene literally and symbolically washed away the glitz to return to her authentic self, requiring precise timing since reapplying the makeup would take two hours.Van Ark discusses the origins of both "Dallas" and "Knots Landing," revealing that creator David Jacobs actually wrote Knots Landing first, but CBS wanted something more glamorous for the pre-1980s era, leading to Dallas being produced first. She opens up about the challenges of adapting to post-COVID entertainment industry changes, her discomfort with the shift from glamorous 1980s aesthetics to today's natural, minimal-makeup approach, and her dreams of creating new projects with co-stars Michelle Lee and Donna Mills—possibly titled "We're Not KNOT Done Yet." Van Ark shares her compassion for former co-star Alec Baldwin during his current legal troubles, recalling how she immediately recognized his talent during his first scene. She also discusses her brief marriage to three different husbands within the Dallas/Knots Landing universe, her love of the Boston Marathon (running a 3:20 qualifying time), and her upcoming June appearances including a Dallas reunion in Palm Springs and the Hollywood Autograph Show in Burbank.

Flashdance leading man Michael Nouri sits down with Steve Kmetko for a wide-ranging, funny, and unexpectedly emotional conversation about his decades in Hollywood — from Goodbye, Columbus and Flashdance to Broadway, Victor/Victoria, Yellowstone, and beyond. Michael looks back on the night the acting bug bit him in a high school Gilbert & Sullivan production, his early stage days with legends like Julie Harris, and bombing his very first movie line opposite Ali MacGraw in Goodbye, Columbus. He talks about trying to dodge the Vietnam draft, enlisting, and then being honorably discharged because the Army literally couldn't find boots big enough for his size-16 feet. Of course, he dives into Flashdance: the terrible reviews, the electric audience reaction, that rare standing ovation in Westwood, working with director Adrian Lyne, producers Simpson & Bruckheimer, and co-star Jennifer Beals (plus their canine scene partner, Grunt). He explains how the massive success of the film didn't translate into the career momentum he'd hoped for, the movie with William Friedkin that fell apart, and how he ended up in Bay City Blues alongside a then-unknown Sharon Stone instead. Michael also shares powerful stories from touring South Pacific right after 9/11 — including emotional nightly renditions of “God Bless America” with audiences arm-in-arm — and the chance encounter with Blake Edwards that led to him starring opposite Julie Andrews in Victor/Victoria, complete with a custom song by Henry Mancini. He reflects on aging in Hollywood, evolving from leading man to dads, granddads, and senators, still auditioning for filmmakers like Bradley Cooper, and staying grateful that the phone keeps ringing. Along the way, he remembers working with Sean Connery, F. Murray Abraham, Glenn Close, Naomi Watts, Kelly Reilly, and even Anna Nicole Smith, plus the life lesson he learned the hard way trying to approach Luciano Pavarotti backstage. He also opens up about political anxiety, the emotional toll of the news cycle, the importance of community, and why he now protects his peace by switching from cable news to TCM. And yes, we meet Charlie, his “heart on four legs,” and hear how daily meditation keeps him grounded after more than five decades in the business. If you love Flashdance, classic Hollywood stories, Broadway memories, and honest talk about surviving and adapting in this business, this episode is a gem.
