Ovation & NAACP Award for her work.On Broadway, Christine debuted in Little Me with Martin Short and Faith Prince, directed by a favorite StoryBeat guest, Rob Marshall.

Para muchas personas, los prejuicios racistas van unidos a la religión. Nuestra continua búsqueda de autojustificación hace que nuestro corazón, naturalmente, se incline a considerar que nuestra cultura, clase y fe, nos hace mejor que los demás. Como judío, Pedro veía al que no lo era, o sea "gentil", como "impuro", evitando comer con él. El conflicto al que se enfrenta en Hechos 10-11 continua hasta que Pablo le recrimina que "no anda rectamente conforme al Evangelio" (Gálatas 2:14). Si somo salvos por Gracia, ¿cómo podemos considerarnos superiores a otros? La canción de Salomon Burke nos dice que "Ninguno de nosotros es libre" (None Of Us Are Free 2002). El tema popularizado por Ray Charles, lo graba "el obispo del soul", predicador desde los siete años de una iglesia "unicitaria" pentecostal, muerto en el aeropuerto de Amsterdam en 2010, junto a los Chicos Ciegos de Alabama haciendo coros. Se refiere en principio a la idea judía de que nadie es libre, mientras haya uno que no lo sea. Para Jesús, eso significa que todos somos esclavos de un mal del que no podemos librarnos nosotros mismos (Juan 8:34). Por eso le dice el canadiense Neil Young al "Hombre sureño" (Southern Man 1970), que "no olvide lo que dice el Buen Libro". El racismo de la cultura "blanca anglosajona protestante" (WASP) del sur de Estados Unidos no se puede conciliar con el Evangelio. La verdad es que todos tenemos un "Amigo racista" (Racist Friend 1984), canta el fallecido Terry Hall. El cantante de origen judeo-alemán fue víctima de abusos por un círculo pedófilo francés a los doce años, formando en Coventry (Inglaterra) en 1977, la banda racialmente mixta de los Specials, que unió el "ska" jamaicano al sonido de la "Nueva Ola", hasta su muerte en 2022. Pocas películas revelan tan claramente la hipocresía de la sociedad liberal blanca occidental como "Adivina quién viene esta noche" (1967). El matrimonio que interpretan la pareja real extramatrimonial durante tantos años de Katherine Hepburn con Spencer Tracy, pocas semanas antes de su muerte, muestra la sutilidad del prejuicio racial con el que se enfrenta a la relación en la ficción de su hija, la sobrina de verdad de Hepburn, con el atractivo actor de las Bahamas, Sidney Poitier. Escuchamos escenas de la primera parte del filme en su versión doblada al castellano con los comentarios de José de Segovia sobre el texto de Hechos y la película de Stanley Kramer con el fondo de la banda sonora original de Frank DeVol. D C Talk fue uno de los tríos más populares de músicos cristianos a finales del siglo pasado y principios de éste. Racialmente mixto, la banda se formó en el entorno ultraconservador de la universidad fundamentalista del líder bautista de la Mayoría Moral de los 80, Jerry Falwell. Liberty. La banda acaba con el escándalo de la acusación de abusos sexuales por el afroamericano Michael Tait en 2025, conocido por su apoyo a Trump. "Gente de color" (Coloured People 1995) es uno de los pocos temas que hace referencia a la unidad con la que ve el Creador, la diversidad racial. El hijo del pastor bautista californiano, Steve Taylor, se enfrenta, sin embargo, desde su primer disco al "código de color" (We Don´t Need No Colour Code 1984), por el que se prohíbe la matriculación y el matrimonio interracial en la universidad evangélica, sede del fundamentalismo del sur de Estados Unidos, donde se forma Billy Graham. El "enfant terrible" de la "música cristiana" de los 80 la llama por sus iniciales (B. J. de Bob Jones) .El Evangelio nos muestra, sin embargo, que como "en Cristo Jesús no hay distinción" entre el que es judío y el que no lo es (Gálatas 3;28), tampoco hay diferencia en la fe, sea cual sea nuestra raza, pueblo o nación.

Era la epoca en la que las peliculas sobre Africa no se hacian en Africa. Aquel tiempo en el que aun habia verdaderas estrellas (Huston, Bogart, Hepburn) y el cine, hasta cierto punto, se hacia sobre la marcha. Todas las aventuras que implico el rodaje de 'La reina de Africa' (1951) estan en el libro que escribio la propia Hepburn sobre como se hizo la pelicula que le dio a Bogart su unico Oscar. La editorial Hatari Books reedita 'Asi hicimos La reina de Africa', en el que la actriz cuenta en primera persona los avatares de una produccion en el Congo belga, en mitad de la nada y con la naturaleza en contra. Lo han leido Carlos Alsina, Ruben Amon, Rosa Belmonte, Guillermo Altares, Sergio del Molino y Nacho Vigalondo. Ademas, comentamos la lista del New York Times de las mejores peliculas del ano 2025.

Sir Anthony Hopkins (We Did Ok, Kid, The Silence of the Lambs, The Father) is an Academy, Emmy, and BAFTA Award-winning actor. Anthony joins the Armchair Expert to discuss feeling othered and playing the role of the dummy in school, how growing up during a war shaped him, and a chance invitation at the YMCA that changed the trajectory of his life. Anthony and Dax talk about booking his first role the same day James Dean was killed, the advice Laurence Olivier offered after seeing him perform onstage, and doing screen tests with Katherine Hepburn and Peter O'Toole. Anthony explains the mythology behind his first table read for The Silence of the Lambs, his journey to sobriety, and why “We Did Ok, Kid” is a sentiment applicable to everything that's happened in his life.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

It's the Depression--the Great Depression. The economy is in the toilet, and birth rates, marriage rates, divorce rates are down, but guess what's up? Knitting! This is truly the Renaissance period for knitting according to Anne Macdonald in No Idle Hands: The Social History of American Knitting. The National Dry Goods Association estimated that 1/12th of the population knit, or about 10 million people. Between thrifty necessity, clever yarn companies sponsoring contests and stars like Joan Crawford and Katherine Hepburn taking up the needles on set, "the knitting craze" was the upside to the economic downside of the Depression. But does knitting shut men out? Humorist Ogden Nash devoted some rhymes to the claim that knitting wives left their husbands in a world of bitter silence:"Life will teach you many things, chief of which is that every man who talks to himself isn't necessarily out of his wits;He may have a wife who knits. . .Ah, my inquiring offspring, you must learn that life can be very bitter,But never quite so much so as when trying to pry a word out of a knitter."Ogden Nash, Not Many Years Ago, quoted in Anne Macdonald's No Idle Hands: The Social History of American Knitting, p. 277.So we wanted to know, does knitting shut men out? We did extensive research--okay, we asked one man--Bossy's husband. His answer? "I think knitting allows women to tolerate men." He gets a piece of Oreo cake for this answer, specifically Jevin's Victory Oreo Cake.Who says you can't inspire academic achievement with the promise of a special cake? So make this Oreo cake and always remember the power of knitting, as the 1932 Spring issue of McCall's Decorative Arts and Needlework proclaimed, "a gaily becoming sweater blouse always makes us feel like conquering the world."

When does comedy become more than a laugh? Ben Mangrum of MIT joins RtB to discuss his new book, The Comedy of Computation: Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Obsolescence (Stanford UP, 2025), which in some ways is organized around “the intriguing idea that human knowledge work is our definitive feature and yet the machines we are ourselves made are going to replace us at it.” Comedy has provided a toolbox (Charles Tilly calls them "collective repertoires") for responding to the looming obsolescence of knowledge workers.John's interest in Menippean satire within science fiction leads him to ask about about the sliding meanings of comedy and its pachinko machine capacity; he loves the way Ben uses the word and concept of doubling,; Ben explains how the computer may either queer (in an antisocial way) or get assimilated into romantic heteronormative pairings. John asks about Donna Haraway's 1985 A Cyborg Manifesto and teh way it denaturalizes gender roles and the way new technological affordances (from the Acheulean axe that Malafouris discusses to the Apple watch) redefine human roles. Ben delves into the minstrelsy pre-history of the photo-robots going as far back as the late 19th century. They unpack the distinctively American Leo Marxian optimism of The Machine in the Garden (1964) that spreads back as far as the proto-robots like The Steam Man of the Prairies(1868) and good old Tik-Tok in the Wizard of Oz novels. John asks about double-edged nature of Ben's claim that comic “genericity provides forms for making a computationally mediated social world seem more habitable, even as it also provides Is for criticizing and objecting to that world." First you get description says Ben--and then sometimes critique. John asks about the iterability of the new: how much of what seems new actually New New (in the sense of that great 1999 Michael Lewis book, The New New Thing)? Mentioned in the episode: The Desk Set a play William Marchand and a movie starring Katherine Hepburn. How might a computer be incorporated into the sociability of a couple? Her (Spike Jonze,, 2013) computer meets human makes the rom-com into a coupling machine. WarGames (1983( ends with Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy (not Ione Skye—silly John!) paired. But also with Broderick and the formerly deadly computer settling down to “how about a nice game of chess”? Black Mirror as the 2020's version of the same dark satire as the 1950's Twilight Zone. John asks about Stanislaw Lem's Cyberiad, and the comic coupling of Kirk and Spock and the death-as-computer comedy of Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1979). Leo Marx, The Machine in the Garden (1964). Dave Eggers: the joke structure as critique in The Circle and The Every. John Saybrook wrote in the New Yorker about an eye-opening conversation with Bill Gates in 1994. Istvan Csicsery-Ronay's Seven Beauties of Science Fiction on the “fictionalization of everyday life" Recallable Books: Elif Batuman The Idiot (2017) Richard Powers, Plowing the Dark (2000) Sally Rooney, Conversations with Friends (2017) Listen and Read here.

When does comedy become more than a laugh? Ben Mangrum of MIT joins RtB to discuss his new book, The Comedy of Computation: Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Obsolescence (Stanford UP, 2025), which in some ways is organized around “the intriguing idea that human knowledge work is our definitive feature and yet the machines we are ourselves made are going to replace us at it.” Comedy has provided a toolbox (Charles Tilly calls them "collective repertoires") for responding to the looming obsolescence of knowledge workers.John's interest in Menippean satire within science fiction leads him to ask about about the sliding meanings of comedy and its pachinko machine capacity; he loves the way Ben uses the word and concept of doubling,; Ben explains how the computer may either queer (in an antisocial way) or get assimilated into romantic heteronormative pairings. John asks about Donna Haraway's 1985 A Cyborg Manifesto and teh way it denaturalizes gender roles and the way new technological affordances (from the Acheulean axe that Malafouris discusses to the Apple watch) redefine human roles. Ben delves into the minstrelsy pre-history of the photo-robots going as far back as the late 19th century. They unpack the distinctively American Leo Marxian optimism of The Machine in the Garden (1964) that spreads back as far as the proto-robots like The Steam Man of the Prairies(1868) and good old Tik-Tok in the Wizard of Oz novels. John asks about double-edged nature of Ben's claim that comic “genericity provides forms for making a computationally mediated social world seem more habitable, even as it also provides Is for criticizing and objecting to that world." First you get description says Ben--and then sometimes critique. John asks about the iterability of the new: how much of what seems new actually New New (in the sense of that great 1999 Michael Lewis book, The New New Thing)? Mentioned in the episode: The Desk Set a play William Marchand and a movie starring Katherine Hepburn. How might a computer be incorporated into the sociability of a couple? Her (Spike Jonze,, 2013) computer meets human makes the rom-com into a coupling machine. WarGames (1983( ends with Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy (not Ione Skye—silly John!) paired. But also with Broderick and the formerly deadly computer settling down to “how about a nice game of chess”? Black Mirror as the 2020's version of the same dark satire as the 1950's Twilight Zone. John asks about Stanislaw Lem's Cyberiad, and the comic coupling of Kirk and Spock and the death-as-computer comedy of Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1979). Leo Marx, The Machine in the Garden (1964). Dave Eggers: the joke structure as critique in The Circle and The Every. John Saybrook wrote in the New Yorker about an eye-opening conversation with Bill Gates in 1994.

How Kate got her groove back… could be an alternate title to David Lean's Katherine Hepburn-starring romance set in the canals of mid-century Venice.  An aging single American lady, looking for a little bit of culture and beauty, discovers far more than just a bit of Murano glass in this visual stunner… By which I mean that she finds no-strings-attached sex with hot Italian dudes.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Louisa May Alcott's 1868 novel, credited with starting the new genre of young adult fiction. When Alcott (1832-88) wrote Little Women, she only did so as her publisher refused to publish her father's book otherwise and as she hoped it would make money. It made Alcott's fortune. This coming of age story of Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy March, each overcoming their own moral flaws, has delighted generations of readers and was so popular from the start that Alcott wrote the second part in 1869 and further sequels and spin-offs in the coming years. Her work has inspired countless directors, composers and authors to make many reimagined versions ever since, with the sisters played by film actors such as Katherine Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Winona Ryder, Claire Danes, Kirsten Dunst, Saoirse Ronan and Emma Watson.

Nunca ganó el Oscar. Fue el favorito de Hitchcock. Rechazó ser el primer James Bond. Se casó cinco veces. Tuvo una infancia traumática. Dominó el drama, la comedia y lo que hiciera falta. Y se retiró con sólo 62 años. Todo eso fue Cary Grant, recordada estrella que brilló junto a Katherine Hepburn, Ingrid Bergman, James Mason, Grace Kelly o Audrey Hepburn. ¿Pero es el mejor actor de la historia? Lo discutimos con Carlos Alsina, Rubén Amón, Rosa Belmonte, Guillermo Altares, Sergio del Molino y Nacho Vigalondo. Además, recomendamos las series 'Tracker' (la más vista en EE.UU. en la televisión en abierto) y 'Big boys'. Y destripamos, por fin, la controvertida deriva de 'Sugar' (Colin Farrell).

We've finally left a galaxy far far away for more domestic fare and it's time for us to revisit one of our most eye opening annual themes. Its MOVIES ARE GAY 2 in which we discuss films made by, and adjacent to, LGBTQ culture. Classic subtext and modern gay classics all month long and we ease in to the month with a screwball classic that flopped in its time but became beloved as a standout amongst its long lost comedic genre. It also stars Carey Grant (gay) who becomes the first person in a feature film to use a common terminology in a very specific way. We're talking about the wacky Howard Hawks rom-com “BRINGING UP BABY” from 1938 and starring Katherine Hepburn as a wise cracking heiress and Carey Grant as an archaeologist who just wants to get his bone.

Hollywood legend Joan Bennett didn't always want to follow in her family's footsteps as an actor. The youngest of the Bennett Sisters, her siblings Constance and Barbara were already film stars by the time Joan determined to hang a shingle as an interior designer, but motherhood got in the way. After her first short marriage and divorce, she had an extra mouth to feed, which launched her on a decades' long career that spanned dozens of films, including Puttin' on the Ritz, She Wanted a Millionaire, and Little Women, where she played Amy alongside Katherine Hepburn's Jo.
