Free preview of the Bang-Bang Podcast. “We tortured some folks.” Katherine Bigelow and Mark Boal's cinematic blockbuster about the Bin Laden assassination was alternately ballyhooed and panned upon its release. Fans praised its purported cinematic achievements while critics lamented its alleged militarism or pro-torture sympathies. What's remarkable today is the attention it received in all directions, perhaps a universal attention no longer possible in a society so fragmented and lost. Van and Lyle try to make sense of the movie as a contested event, and what its ambiguous ending might tell us about what came next. They also recall where they were when Obama ordered Seal Team Six to pull that trigger.Get the full episode--and all episodes--at: https://www.bangbangpod.com
War stories are often the domain of ‘dick lit' male protagonists, but is this a true representation of history and does the experience of women in war differ? In this episode, I reference historical female warriors and examines how the experiences of Maya, the protagonist in Zero Dark Thirty, compares with her wartime service. Valerie explores what happens when the scope of a story is too wide, and the impact scope has on setups and payoffs. -M"What is interesting to me, is how women are portrayed in war movies, are they portrayed as masculine or weak, are they given due credit for their skill and experience, and how does this compare to my own experience?" - Melanie HillRelated Story Nerd EpisodesRogue One (Season 1, Episode 8)Skyfall (Season 4, Episode 6) REGISTER FOR THE 2024 SPRING WEBINAR SERIESFor access to writing templates and worksheets, and more than 70 hours of training (all for free), subscribe to Valerie's Inner Circle.To learn to read like a writer, visit Melanie's website.Follow Valerie on X, Instagram and Threads @valerie_francisFollow Melanie on X, Instagram and Facebook @MelanieHillAuthor
[School of Movies 2024] It's always a risk, setting a sci-fi dystopian movie only a few years from filming. You're going to make predictions about how the world might look and operate, with new technology or sociological and political upheaval within a time period so immediate that it's the difference between the launch of the Sony PlayStation and the PlayStation 2 But we are currently living in a dystopia increasingly left to the devices of the dumbest of AI, and many of us are wondering "How the hell did all this happen between the PS4 and PS5?". Plus, the writer/producer of this one warned us about Skynet before. James Cameron here teams up with director (and occasional wife) Katherine Bigelow to deliver a grimy neo-noir that failed abysmally at the box office when everyone wanted Batman Forever. A disregarded cult favourite with a mysterious and twisted psychopath murdering people in truly stomach-churning ways, the same year Se7en was a massive smash hit. The tech is effectively Virtual Reality, only it's recorded, first-person real life experiences that go way beyond mere visual immersion. There are riots on the streets of Los Angeles as a terrifyingly militarised police force close in, and as the clock ticks towards midnight on New Year's Eve in the far-flung year of 1999 a young and twitchy Ralph Feinnes and a statuesque goddess, his long-suffering protector played by Angela Basset find themselves caught up in a dangerous world. This show was commissioned by Greg Downing, and we had a blast delving into it.

The gang gets in and out of ultra sticky situations this week as we review the hard-R rated SNL movie, MacGruber (2010) starring Will Forte, Kristin Wiig, and Ryan Phillipe. Arguably one of the better SNL sketch series made into a feature length movie, MacGruber is 80's/90's action movie trope after trope, with ridiculous, dirty, foul mouthed comedy peppered throughout. And with Val Kilmer and Powers Booth in supporting roles, you have heavy weight acting, all wrapped up in a silly bow.

The gang gets the boot this week, as they review The Canadian low budget sci fi thriller, The Cube (1997) directed by Vincenzo Natali. Natali would later go on to direct Splice (2009) and In the Tall Grass (2019). Setting the ground work for limited story telling horror thrillers like Saw and The Platform, Cube used the horror of human nature as the main point of danger and fear, Also a mystery cube made of smaller cubes that may or may not kill you, helps.

“There should be more women directing. I think there's just not the awareness that it's really possible. It is.”-Kathryn Bigelow. Point Break remains a pivotal piece in our hosts’ film education largely because it asks the essential question: what more do you need than Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze surfing, skydiving, and robbing banks? The 1991 film may not have redefined movies upon its release, but since then it’s gained appreciation largely because of director Kathryn Bigelow’s giant mark on Hollywood. Bigelow remains to be the only woman in history to win an Oscar for Best Director, and in this episode of Remainders, Darren and Patrick try to give credit where credit’s due. After you Alphonse, I insist.

064 - This has got to be our most requested movie, and I'm not sure why it took us this long to get to it. I guess our request system is flawed? In any case - we've gone and done it - and finally cracked out first Keanu joint. So go prepare yourself a snack and join us as we dive deep into the year that was 1991 and the cultural artefact that is Point Break, with all the detail you have come to expect, and the big questions that need to be asked - like, is this a bad movie, a good-bad movie, a good-good movie, or somehow magically all of the above?
