El Radar Empresarial de hoy pone el foco en el enorme impacto económico que mueve el Festival de Cannes, considerado uno de los certámenes cinematográficos más importantes del planeta. La edición de 2026 ha tenido una destacada presencia española gracias al triunfo de los Javis, que lograron el premio a mejor dirección por La Bola Negra. Sin embargo, la máxima distinción del festival, la Palma de Oro, terminó en manos de la producción rumana Fjord. Más allá de los galardones, el lujo y las celebridades que cada año ocupan la alfombra roja, Cannes se ha convertido en una auténtica maquinaria económica para la ciudad francesa que lo acoge. Durante los once días que dura el evento, la localidad recibe alrededor de 200.000 visitantes. Entre ellos se encuentran más de 4.000 periodistas acreditados y unos 40.000 profesionales vinculados a la industria audiovisual. Toda esta afluencia de personas tiene un efecto directo sobre hoteles, restaurantes, comercios y servicios. El festival deja beneficios superiores a los 200 millones de euros, una cifra que representa cerca del 20% de los ingresos generados por el Palacio de Festivales y Congresos. Además, la celebración del certamen permite crear unos 2.300 empleos, unos números que contrastan claramente con el presupuesto oficial del festival, situado en torno a los 35 millones de euros. El impacto no solo se refleja en la economía local. Las grandes marcas también aprovechan la enorme repercusión mediática del evento, especialmente en redes sociales. Según un estudio citado por Vogue y elaborado por la plataforma Lefty, Cannes generó más de 200 millones de dólares en valor mediático. El sector de la moda lideró esta repercusión con 77 millones, seguido por la belleza y la joyería. Firmas como Chopard, colaboradora histórica del festival, alcanzaron cifras millonarias, mientras que Gucci y Saint Laurent también lograron una enorme visibilidad internacional gracias a las estrellas que lucieron sus diseños. La influencia de Cannes viene de lejos. La primera edición del festival se celebró en 1946, apenas un año después del final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. En muy poco tiempo logró consolidarse como el principal escaparate del cine internacional. Durante la década de los cincuenta comenzaron a desfilar por sus salas y playas algunas de las figuras más reconocidas del momento, entre ellas Kirk Douglas, Sophia Loren o Cary Grant. Desde entonces, el Festival de Cannes no solo ha sido sinónimo de cine y glamour, sino también de influencia cultural, promoción internacional y negocio multimillonario.

Welcome to The Reel Schmooze with ToI film reviewer Jordan Hoffman and host Amanda Borschel-Dan, where we bring you all the entertainment news and film reviews a Jew can use. We roll out with three Jangles -- news with a Jewish angle. Borschel-Dan gives her favorite actress, 96-year-old June Squib, a shoutout for her recent Tony nomination for "Marjorie Prime." Hoffman discusses his recent discovery of a famous Jewish porn star and also the new reboot of "Lord of the Flies" which hints that one of the boys is Jewish. We then turn to "Cast a Giant Shadow," the 1966 biopic of Colonel Mickey Marcus. David Daniel "Mickey" Marcus was a complicated character who was foundational to the organization of what became the Israel Defense Force. The United States Army colonel, who was later dubbed Israel's first general, was also instrumental at the Nuremberg Trials. Kirk Douglas plays Marcus and the rest of the all-star cast includes Senta Berger, Yul Brynner, John Wayne, Frank Sinatra and Angie Dickinson. The movie maven and our host disagreed about the film, so stick around to see if "Cast a Giant Shadow" gets an "oy," "meh" or "not bad" in this week's The Reel Schmooze. The Reel Schmooze is produced by Ari Schlacht and can be found wherever you get your podcasts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Au Ier siècle avant notre ère, Spartacus n'est pas un idéaliste. C'est un gladiateur, probablement d'origine thrace, formé pour tuer dans l'arène. En 73 av. J.-C., il s'échappe d'une école de gladiateurs à Capoue avec quelques dizaines d'hommes. Ce qui n'est au départ qu'une fuite désespérée devient rapidement une révolte massive. En quelques mois, Spartacus rassemble des dizaines de milliers d'esclaves, de déserteurs et de marginaux. Il bat plusieurs armées romaines, pourtant mieux équipées.À ce stade, il devient une menace sérieuse pour Rome.Mais ses intentions restent floues. Voulait-il renverser la République ? Libérer tous les esclaves ? Ou simplement fuir l'Italie ? Les sources antiques — souvent hostiles — ne tranchent pas clairement. Des historiens comme Plutarch décrivent un chef charismatique, stratège, mais sans véritable projet politique structuré.La fin est brutale. En 71 av. J.-C., l'armée romaine, dirigée par Marcus Licinius Crassus, écrase la révolte. Spartacus meurt au combat. Des milliers de ses compagnons sont crucifiés le long de la voie Appienne, pour servir d'exemple.Alors, héros ?Pour les Romains de l'époque, certainement pas. Spartacus est un esclave rebelle, dangereux, symbole du désordre. Mais avec le temps, son image change radicalement.À partir du XIXe siècle, dans un contexte de luttes sociales, il devient une figure de résistance. Les mouvements ouvriers et révolutionnaires voient en lui un symbole de révolte contre l'oppression. Son combat est réinterprété comme une lutte pour la liberté et la dignité humaine.Le cinéma et la culture populaire amplifient cette image. Le film Spartacus, avec Kirk Douglas, en fait un héros noble, presque idéaliste, prêt à se sacrifier pour ses compagnons.Mais historiquement, la réalité est plus nuancée. Spartacus n'était probablement ni un révolutionnaire moderne, ni un simple bandit. C'était un homme plongé dans une situation extrême, qui a su exploiter une faille du système romain. Un chef militaire brillant, capable de tenir tête à une superpuissance… sans forcément incarner une cause universelle.En résumé, Spartacus est devenu un héros… surtout après sa mort. Non pas pour ce qu'il était exactement, mais pour ce qu'il représente : la possibilité de se lever contre un ordre injuste. Et c'est peut-être là que réside sa véritable force. Hébergé par Acast.

We wrap up this month of my favorite movies with Seven Days in May - John Frankenheimer's tense Cold War drama about a planned coup d'etat in the United States. With a script from Rod Serling and an amazing cast, it's a thriller that holds up over sixty years later. We'll hear three of its stars: Kirk Douglas, who plays the Army officer who discovers the plot; Edmond O'Brien as the rascally senator enlisted to help save the day; and Fredric March as the president facing removal - a man committed to doing the right thing even if it's unpopular. Douglas stars in "The Story of Markham's Death" (originally aired on CBS on October 2, 1947); O'Brien stars in "Muddy Track" (originally aired on CBS on November 11, 1948); and March stars in "The Night Reveals" (originally aired on CBS on May 26. 1949). Plus - a bonus Suspense story of Cold War espionage: "The Case for Dr. Singer" (originally aired on CBS on June 28, 1951).

October 7, 1949. Los Angeles, California. 26-year old actress Jean Spangler leaves her home and asks her sister-in-law to watch over her daughter. Jean says she is planning to meet with her ex-husband and spend the night working on a film shoot, but she soon vanishes without a trace. Two days later, Jean's purse is discovered in Griffith Park, containing a cryptic note addressed to someone named “Kirk”. Since Jean had recently worked on a film starring actor Kirk Douglas, there is speculation that the note might be addressed to him, but he denies any knowledge of what happened. There are numerous theories surrounding Jean's disappearance, including speculation about a botched abortion, rumours about her becoming involved with organized crime figures, and even a potential connection to the “Black Dahlia” murder. On this week's episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we shall cover an unsolved missing persons case which has remained one of Hollywood's most baffling mysteries.Support the Show: Patreon.com/julesandashleyPatreon.com/thetrailwentcoldAdditional Reading:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Spanglerhttp://charleyproject.org/case/jean-elizabeth-spanglerhttps://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2002-oct-20-me-then20-story.htmlhttps://www.palmspringslife.com/the-mysterious-disappearance-of-jean-spangler/https://welkerlots.wordpress.com/2014/10/08/the-jean-spangler-premonition/“Hard Boiled Hollywood: Crime and Punishment in Postwar Los Angeles” by Jon Lewis“Black Dahlia Avenger: The True Story” by Steve Hodel

ON TODAYS PROGRAM… MIAMI IS THE REAL 2026 SEASON OPENER!! TURKEY GP RETURNS FOR 2027! JEAN ALESI CRASHES HIS 1969 312 FERRARI AT THE MONACO HISTORIQUES! TOTO KEEPING HIS CARDS CLOSE TO HIS CHEST! BYD ARE TALKING WITH DOMINICALI!!…..AND…. FERNANDO'S VICTORY OVER THE RED BARRON WAS 20 YEARS AGO! AND… THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER WE HAVE: JEROME D'AMBROSIO AND LANDO NORRIS AT DONINGTON 2015!! On 24 April 2005, the San Marino Grand Prix at Imola became one of the defining races of Fernando Alonso's first championship season. He won for Renault, but the result is remembered above all for the final laps, when Michael Schumacher brought the Ferrari close enough to make every corner matter. Alonso had started second. Schumacher had started 13th on the grid after a difficult qualifying session, yet as his pace came alive, it transformed the afternoon. Kimi Räikkönen had led early for McLaren before retiring with a driveshaft problem, and Alonso inherited a race that soon became a test of control as much as speed. In the closing phase, Schumacher was the faster driver. He had the Ferrari underneath him, the experience of seven world titles behind him, and a circuit where passing was difficult. Alonso had track position, a Renault R25 to protect, and no margin for error. For lap after lap, he placed the car exactly where it needed to be. Alonso crossed the line just 0.215 seconds ahead of Schumacher. After the later BAR-Honda disqualifications, Alexander Wurz was classified third for McLaren Mercedes. Imola 2005 remains a clean piece of Formula 1 memory: pressure, restraint, and two drivers at different points of their stories meeting at the edge of a changing era. Machismo! We spoke with former World Drivers' Champion Nigel Mansell after the regulation refinements were announced and he shared his views. Here's a summary of what he said: It's fabulous that everyone's talking and this is a massive change "I think the fabulous thing is that everyone's talking. It's been a massive change in regulations, both with the car and the engine. I think there's going to be improvements with the harvesting of power. Hopefully, they won't be slowing down too much into some of the corners now.” "I think it is so vitally important for the drivers to be able to drive the cars to the maximum, as opposed to having a computer telling them when they can brake or can't brake. Fernando Alonso made us all laugh by saying that his chef could drive the car better than he could at the moment.” "We have to get back to normality. Formula One is the grand stallion of all racing worldwide and we mustn't lose sight of that. And as technology gathers pace, they can do these other tweaks to do 50/50 later but they just need to give more power to the cars at the moment to go racing.” I'd like to see more power to the elbows of the drivers "In engineering terms, if it's not broken, you don't try to fix it. People don't understand that there's major changes which have been in place for some time. It takes a lot of time for all the teams and manufacturers to put it all together.”   "So the complexity of the rules is enormous and if you don't get it right, along with the combination of the power units, harvesting of electrical power, and so on and so forth. It's a minefield.”   "Drivers can fall foul of so many regulations and yet it's the computers doing it all. I'd just like to see more power to the elbow of the drivers, as opposed to computers doing it.”   "Going back to the 70s and 80s, 90+ percent of the engines were Cosworth DFV. Everyone had the same engines pretty much and we had fantastic racing. You knew the cars, the drivers, the tyres, the mechanics and the engineers made a huge difference.”   "Yes we're in the computer age but racing should be as stable as it can be, for everyone to be able to catch up to compete. Everyone's mooting it would be great to have the V10s back for the noise. If you're a purist, the answer is yes. Everybody makes their own V10 and it'll sound fantastic because it's the pinnacle of motorsport.” Challenge for F1 is to balance technological advancement and "racing" "I have tremendous sympathy, and support the drivers one hundred percent with what they're saying. They need to be listened to. They've got a job to do and they do a fantastic job, all of them.”   "It's all well and good, coming up with new ideas and regulations. All I'd say to the powers that be is that they've done a fantastic job but they have to work and they have to be able to be implemented safely and properly.”   "When they've tweaked it enough that it works, it's fantastic. But until it does work properly for everybody, we need to keep tweaking it, I think urgently now so that we get the show on the road.”   "As long as it doesn't carry on for much longer they'll be fine. They're all doing a great job. What the manufacturers have done, the FIA, the governing body and Liberty Media themselves.”   "They mustn't lose sight of the fact that the cars need to race properly. It has some growing pains but it has been the most difficult start of any year because they've had three races and then this month or so off. And now we've got Miami so I think everyone's excited about that at the end of next week as we can get racing again.” Mercedes still have the advantage despite regulation refinements "If you're Mercedes you must be incredibly frustrated because you could have gotten a big lead in the championship.”   "The people who are struggling, they'd go 'oh, thank you!'. They get a bit more time to sort things out and get ready for the next race.”   "It's on both ends of the spectrum. Some people are going to feel very comfortable with it and some will feel frustrated. It's racing anyway. There's always something going on.”   "I don't think so (Mercedes and Toto Wolff being disappointed) because we haven't had a proper race yet, if you're a purist. Mercedes have done such a fantastic job, they'll have an advantage all through the year. Their engine is better than anybody else's.”   "We're talking purely here about harvesting power and drivers being able to race the cars on the track and at every corner as much as they can. So it's a different thing altogether".   "I still think Mercedes will have an advantage all through the year but it's a big development. It's a big development with the cars, with the engines. A month is a very long time and we could see a lot of changes in Miami. Once we get racing properly, everything can stay stable again. It's just that everybody is not racing properly at the moment".   These regulation refinements make Miami GP the first pivotal race of the season   "I hope everything settles down and we have a great race in Miami.”   "I think Miami, because the focus is on it, could be one of the pivotal races this year with all the new tweaks. I think Miami's got hype because obviously without going into the negativity of what's happening in the war, with this month off, everybody's hungry to go racing again. So Miami's going to be under the microscope, and I think it's going to be a fantastic race down there.”   "Well, I'll let you know firsthand I'm gonna be there this year for one of the days, so I'm gonna go and have a look. This is my first time in Miami. I haven't been there but Miami is a great spectacle. I think every year when any race returns, there's improvements.”   "I'm very optimistic that Miami will be a much better presentation.” Stovebolt Special Returns to Pebble Beach Decades after Historic Run in Last Road Race   PEBBLE BEACH, CALIFORNIA (April 22, 2026) — At the drop of the green flag, in what was to be the very last road race at Pebble Beach although no one knew that then, two-time past winner Bill Pollack jumped into the lead in a much-modified car that would come to be known as the “Stovebolt Special”—a 1950 HWM fitted with experimental disc brakes and the very first Chevy V8 to be used in road racing. The date was April 22, 1956. For a brief time, the car led the Ferraris of Phil Hill, Carroll Shelby, and Ernie McAfee as well as every other car in the race. It was powered to win—and might have done so but for the many tight corners of the tree-lined course, which the just-completed special struggled to navigate since its handling was not yet dialed in. Ultimately it finished sixth overall—a fine achievement in a field comprising the top sports racing cars and drivers of the day.  Although the Stovebolt Special now resides in England with renowned auto journalist and current owner Simon Taylor, it will return to Pebble Beach this August for the 75th celebration of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, an event that began in tandem with the Pebble Beach Road Races in 1950.  The HWM had already lived a long and storied life when it raced at Pebble Beach. In original form, as a works race car bearing a four-cylinder two-liter Alta engine, it served as the steed for Stirling Moss in his first paid competition. He raced the car for HWM throughout much of the 1950 season, recording several fine results including a third-place finish behind the Alfas of Giuseppe Farina and Juan Manuel Fangio in the Bari Grand Prix. With Johnny Claes at the wheel, the HWM won the Grand Prix des Frontieres. It was also driven by Rudi Fischer and Raymond Sommer.  A few years later, the car was sold to 20th Century Fox to be used in the film “The Racers,” starring Kirk Douglas—and was crashed in accord with the script.  It was Tom Carstens who bought the wreck and resurrected it for Pebble Beach, not simply rebuilding it, but doing all that he could to improve the chassis, transmission, and body. The new Chevy V8 engine was bored and stroked to just under five liters by Bobby Meeks at Vic Edelbrock's shop and then was fitted in the car by Eddie Kuzma, who managed that task by repositioning the firewall and fabricating new rear bodywork. Ted Halibrand's shop added a quick-change rear axle and the disc brakes.  The finished creation was called the Stovebolt Special by “Sports Cars Illustrated” magazine—and the name stuck. The return of the Stovebolt Special to Pebble Beach is made possible thanks to Simon Taylor as well as the American Hot Rod Foundation (ahrf.com), particularly founder Steve Memishian and foundation manager David Steele.The “Stovebolt Special” among several race cars in competition at the very last road race through the tree-lined course in Pebble Beach. Photo Credit: Julian P. Graham / Pebble Beach Company Lagorio ArchivesThe 75th Concours will pay tribute to its historic ties in racing as well as the many “first-ever” gatherings of cars that have made it famous. The former road racers will be showcased in two special classes, one focusing on cars that raced in close-to-original form as made by their manufacturers and the other focusing on specials that were much modified. The event will also feature cars ranging from early American Speedsters to Ferraris and Japanese race cars, and the latest new creations and dream cars will be displayed on the Concept Lawn.  ZHENRUI CHI JOINS THE ASTON MARTIN ARAMCO FORMULA ONE™ TEAM DRIVER ACADEMY 22 April 2026, AMRTC, Silverstone, UK: The Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team is pleased to announce that Zhenrui Chi has joined its Driver Academy. The 17-year-old, regarded as one of China's most promising young drivers, becomes the latest addition to the Academy's expanding roster as the team continues to strengthen its long-term pathway for developing emerging talent from across the global motorsport landscape. As a member of the team's Driver Academy, Zhenrui will race in an Aston Martin Aramco-liveried car, introducing the marque's iconic green to the Formula Regional grid. Zhenrui's signing follows a comprehensive selection process carried out by the team's Driver Academy programme, which first saw him driving at its evaluation day in Mugello before tracking his impressive 2025 campaign. Over the course of the season, he demonstrated consistent front-running pace and racecraft across European and Middle East F4 categories, delivering a series of standout performances that underlined his talent. As part of the Aston Martin Aramco Driver Academy, Zhenrui will take part in a tailored development programme designed to support every aspect of his motorsport progression. The programme includes racecraft mentorship from experienced team personnel both trackside and at the AMR Technology Campus, physical conditioning, and a dedicated media and communications training to prepare him for the demands of professional motorsport. Zhenrui Chi, Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team Driver Academy: “Joining the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team family is a huge honour for me. It's a great responsibility, but also an incredible opportunity and motivation to keep pushing myself to the next level. Knowing that I have the support of such an iconic team, with all its experience and expertise, gives me a lot of confidence for the journey ahead. I know the road will require hard work and dedication, and I'm fully aware that I have to continue to prove I deserve this opportunity. I'm ready to give everything I have and I can't wait to start this journey with Aston Martin Aramco.” Nuno Pinto, Racing Director, Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team Driver Academy: “Zhenrui is exactly the kind of talent our Academy exists to find. We first saw him at an evaluation test in Mugello and were immediately impressed by his ability and approach. We then followed his progress through the rest of the 2025 season, where he showed not only pace but also strong consistency in one of the most competitive junior categories in racing, Italian F4. We are delighted to welcome him to the Academy and to support his development through our programme at Silverstone. With the resources of the AMR Technology Campus and the environment we have built around our drivers, we believe we can help him to continue to grow. This is a long-term partnership, and we are looking forward to the journey ahead together.”

Primordial legends from the mists of time and fever dreams of imminent apocalypse. Our good friend Dallas Norvell drops by Casa Calibro to discuss Excalibur (1981), directed by John Boorman and Holocaust 2000 (1977), directed by Alberto de Martino (this film is sometimes also known as The Chosen or Rain of Fire). Boorman's passion project based on Mallory's La Morte d'Artur is a heady mix of magic, myth and just a hint of disco. Meanwhile, Kirk Douglas goes completely out of his mind in an attempt to ward off the end of the world. It's a bit of a trip this week, is what I'm trying to say. We don't think it's really possible to spoil a movie based on a 500 year old text concerning a legend more than a thousand years old, so no Spoiler Territory for Excalibur. We do, however, call out Spoiler Territory for Holocaust 2000 (although honestly, it probably doesn't matter). If you want to skip ahead from that point, you can rejoin the conversation at the 2:29:14 mark to avoid spoilers. Want to get in touch?

This week, thanks to a listener donation on Ko-Fi, Mike and Mike are talking about 1979's THE VILLAIN!

  Today on another encore episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to San Francisco television journalist Claudia Cowan whose parents were the actors Barbara Rush and publicist Warren Cowan. And as we learned on this episode, once wasn't enough for this Hollywood power couple as Claudia tells us. Her parents got hitched twice. The second time, was slightly more clandestine as you will hear. So what was it like to have a father who represented clients his mother starred in films with? We dig into it and a lot more on this whimsical episode. Claudia tells us what it was like to have a father whose clients included Ronald Reagan, George Burns and Kirk Douglas among many, many other A-list celebrities and a mom who starred in films with everyone from Frank Sinatra and Ernie Kovacs to Bob Crane and Hope Lange. As you may remember, we spoke to the children of both of Crane and Lange on recent episodes, so this episode comes full circle. Along the way we discuss things like Top Ten lists & celebrity golf tournament PR which her father invented, her mother finding love late in life after Warren's passing as well as things like The Rat Pack, The Beatles and other pop culture icons. Claudia was open and honest and a lot of fun as a guest and we covered everything from her home life, to her personal life behind the scenes as well as her career in local television in the Bay Area. It's all here on this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast. Everyone has a story.  

Richard Fleischer ist ein Regisseur, der nie wirklich berühmt wurde – im Gegensatz zu einigen seiner Filme wie zum Beispiel 20.000 MEILEN UNTER DEM MEER oder SOYLENT GREEN. Thomas und Gast Patrick Torma von journalistenfilme.de haben sich THE BOSTON STRANGLER ausgesucht. Die Verfilmung einer wahren Kriminalgeschichte. 13 Frauen wurden im Raum Boston in den 1960er Jahren vom „Boston Strangler“ ermordet. Bereits 1966 erschien ein Buch von Gerold Frank und schon 1968 der darauf basierende Film von Fleischer. Ein kurzer zeitlicher Abstand – mit Folgen. Der Mörder schien gefunden, aber vieles war noch nicht geklärt.Und so ist THE BOSTON STRANGLER mehr eine Interpretation als eine möglichst akkurate Wiedergabe eines echten Falls (wie zum Beispiel Finchers ZODIAC). Albert DeSalvo (Tony Curtis) wird gezeigt als ein Mörder mit Persönlichkeitsstörung, der erst in den Vernehmungen der Polizei ahnt, dass in ihm der Mörder steckt.Erst einmal nimmt sich der Film die Zeit, die mühsame und wenig erfolgreiche Ermittlungsarbeit zu zeigen – gerade hier wird sichtbar, dass der Film aus einer Zwischenzeit stammt: Die 1950er mit ihrem klaren Weltbild sind vorbei, es ist zu spüren, dass die Welt sich ändern wird, aber die „Revolutionen“ kommen erst noch. Die Polizisten (stark: Henry Fonda und George Kennedy) sind die Soldatengeneration des Zweiten Weltkriegs. Jetzt ist der Feind viel schwerer zu erkennen und zu finden.Im Podcast diskutieren wir die Stärken und Schwächen des Films, besprechen die Aufteilung des Films in zwei doch sehr unterschiedliche Hälften und Patrick erklärt en detail die beeindruckenden Split Screens.Über den Regisseur: Richard Fleischer gehört zu den Regisseuren, deren Filme berühmter sind als sie selbst. Vier Jahrzehnte hat er in Hollywood gearbeitet und dabei sehr verschiedene Genres bedient. Zu seinen Werken gehören unter anderem DIE WIKINGER mit Kirk Douglas, CONAN DER ZERSTÖRER und RED SONJA, der aufwändige Abenteuerfilm 20.000 MEILEN UNTER DEM MEER, DOCTOR DOLITTLE, der Kriegsfilm TORA! TORA! TORA! und der dystopische und erschreckend aktuelle Science-Fiction-Film SOYLENT GREEN. Unter dem Titel „Soylent Screen“ widmen wir uns in unregelmäßigem Abständen diesem SF-Meilenstein. Richard Fleischer starb im Alter von 89 Jahren vor 20 Jahren – am 25. März 2006 – in Los Angeles.

Jeffrey Katzenberg was one of the youngest studio heads in Hollywood when he was named president of Paramount Pictures at just 31. Over the decades that followed, he would help shape modern animation and co-found DreamWorks alongside Steven Spielberg and David Geffen.In this episode of Big Shot, Harley and David sit down with Jeffrey to explore the experiences that shaped his career and leadership approach. He reflects on lessons from his father, whose generosity left a lasting impression, and on a moment with Kirk Douglas that reinforced the idea that you have not truly learned how to live until you have learned how to give.Jeffrey traces his path through Hollywood, from working with Barry Diller to helping lead Disney during a pivotal era for animation, and how being fired from Disney led him to build DreamWorks. Along the way, Jeffrey reflects on failure, success, and the mindset that has guided him through decades in Hollywood, and shares why he never rests on past success, keeping his eyes on what's next.—In This Episode We Cover:(00:00) Intro(02:40) Lessons from his father and Kirk Douglas(12:01) Volunteering for NYC mayor John Lindsay(12:40) Growing up with dyslexia(16:44) The philosophy of exceeding expectations(25:24) Jeffrey's role in revitalizing Disney animation(33:32) Storytelling lessons from Walt Disney(37:16) Building DreamWorks as its own brand(43:29) Getting fired from Disney and forming the Dreamworks team(57:04) Movie studio economics (59:32) Venture capital vs. filmmaking (1:05:26) A story about Jeffrey's father and the drive of Jewish parents(1:09:29) Dealing with failure —Where To Find Jeffrey Katzenberg:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffrey-katzenberg-4b3b47123• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jeffrey.katzenberg• Website: https://www.wndrco.com Where To Find Big Shot: • Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.bigshot.show/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@bigshotpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  • TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@bigshotshow⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/bigshotshow/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  • Harley Finkelstein: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/harleyf⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • David Segal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/tea_maverick⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• Production and Marketing: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://penname.co⁠

Ahoy! I'm a man! You're a man! WE'RE ALL MEN! At least, that's what Kirk Douglas' character would have us all shouting in our review of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. This is it, the progenitor of steampunk, nautical sci-fi, and submarine movies in general, and that's why we watched it! For our Submarine Month, we are going through the most impactful submarine movies, and it helps we could only think of four besides Hunt for Red October. So naturally, we had to begin with the grandaddy. We discuss mythical monsters becoming the technology of the future, the complexities of Captain Nemo, and the factual attacks of giant squids! We're farming kelp, sending messages by Sting (in bottles), wondering when they'll kill Ned, running from puppet sharks, and basking in the heavy homoerotic undertones. In the end we count how many times Pirates of the Caribbean just copied this movie. It was a lot. "And then they made me their chief."

Special Effects Technician Kirk Douglas helped bring Stargate SG-1's incredible practical effects to life from day one. He joins us to share stories from the set and pay tribute to his brother, Wray Douglas.

We're serving up thick cuts of old time radio mystery with four stories involving butchers and their wares. First, Boston Blackie faces off against a black market meat ring in an adventure starring Chester Morris (originally aired on NBC on July 21, 1944). Kirk Douglas embarks on a dangerous affair in the grocery store aisles in "The Butcher's Wife" from Suspense (originally aired on CBS on February 9, 1950). After a disappointing dinner, The Saint finds a dead body in his trunk in "The Horrible Hamburger" (originally aired on NBC on September 10, 1950). Finally, Dick Powell goes undercover to protect a butcher from a protection racket in Richard Diamond, Private Detective (originally aired on ABC on March 9, 1951).

A young man loses his father and home, is forced to work for a land baron, falls in love with his boss's daughter, and captures a rogue horse in this drama based on an Australian ballad. It's corny as a paperback romance, and has more horses than a twelve-year-old girl's notebook. We also have my sister Anne on to talk a bit about horses. Starring Tom Burlinson, Kirk Douglas, Sigrid Thornton, Jack Thompson, and Chris Haywood. Written by John Dixon and Fred Cullen from Banjo Paterson's poem. Directed by George T. Miller.

Se han cumplido 10 años de la muerte de Alan Rickman, el gran actor inglés de voz grave y presencia imponente que nos dejó interpretaciones inolvidables como las del profesor Snape de la saga “Harry Potter”, el criminal Hans Gruber de “La jungla de cristal” o el caballero enamorado de “Sentido y sensibilidad”. En este episodio recordamos su vida y su obra. Tenemos nuevo “villano odioso” esta semana, aunque en este caso también es un personaje divertido y hasta cierto punto entrañable: Biff Tannen, el abusón de la saga “Regreso al futuro”. El director Miguel Ángel Guerra nos habla de unos míticos decorados en Hoyo de Manzanares, cerca de Madrid capital, donde se rodaron muchas películas del Oeste en los años 60, entre ellas “Por un puñado de dólares” de Sergio Leone. Y en la sección dedicada al cine de aventuras tenemos esta vez “Los vikingos” de Richard Fleischer, con Kirk Douglas y Tony Curtis empuñando la espada.

Kirk Douglas hosted Saturday Night Live? Yes, yes he did. Along with R&B legends Sam & Dave as the musical guest. This did happen.How did it turn out? Well…the show opens with Douglas doing what looks to be a Dorf impression. And it only gets better from there. As “The Early Years” of SNL get closer to its end, we start to say goodbye to many fan favorites. We get the final Schiller's Reel of the original era, the last appearance of Jane's “Joan Face,” and the final installment of “What if?”We do learn the last name of Nick the Lounge Singer, so perhaps it is not a total loss. ---------------------------------Subscribe today!

REDIFF - Spartacus est l'exclave qui est entré dans la légende pour son esprit rebelle et son extraordinaire capacité à fédérer les opprimés. Sa lutte et son exemple, en plus d'inspirer les cinéastes, vont inspirer des millions d'hommes et de femmes dans le monde, même deux mille ans après son existence. Et pourtant... Cinq grands témoins de l'Antiquité ont écrit sur Spartacus, pas un de plus.

On this edition of Scene Missing,I'm joined by filmmaker/artist Gabriel Hardman and writer/critic Ian Brill for a sharp, no-nonsense look at the 1946 noir classic The Strange Love of Martha Ivers. We dig into the film's ruthless psychology, its tangled relationships, and how the performances from Barbara Stanwyck, Van Heflin, a young Kirk Douglas, and Lizabeth Scott still punch hard today. Hardman breaks down the visual language and shadow work that make the film so uniquely tense, while Brill dives into the screenplay's moral ambiguity and the twisted power dynamics at its core. From the opening “accident” that sets everything in motion to the film's bleak, pressure-cooker finale, this is a deep, character-driven postmortem of a noir that doesn't get enough modern attention. Perfect for fans of classic Hollywood, noir obsessives, and anyone who loves watching a great movie picked apart by smart people who know how the machine works.

Noirvember is here and the Czar of Noir Eddie Muller is back on the podcast to talk about his new book, DARK CITY DAMES: THE WOMEN WHO DEFINED FILM NOIR along with two crime classics featuring FOUR of those Dark City Dames! First, Jane Greer uses her seductive wiles to pit private eye Robert Mitchum against domineering gangster Kirk Douglas in OUT OF THE PAST (1947), from director Jacques Tourneur (CAT PEOPLE). This movie is a stone cold classic, and not only of the best noirs, but one of the best movies ever. Rhonda Fleming is a bonus Dark City Dame in this one. OUT OF THE PAST is streaming on HBOMax. Then, our B picture takes us to "one of the worst waterfronts in the world" where John Payne is an ex-boxer-turned-cabbie caught between good girl Evelyn Keyes and femme fatale Peggie Castle during a night of frame-jobs, jewel heists and murder in 99 RIVER STREET (1953), a totally bonkers noir from director Phil Karlson (WALKING TALL). 99 RIVER STREET is streaming on Amazon Prime. In talking about his new book, Eddie regales us with tales of how Jane Greer's parrots imitated Vin Scully's homerun call, and Greer had some impressions of her own + his encounters with the other women he profiles such as Ann Savage (DETOUR) and Marie Windsor (THE KILLING). And if that wasn't enough, Eddie fills us in on the upcoming Noir City fest in Oakland and gives his thoughts on the new Vince Gilligan series PLURIBUS! Plus, this episode itself also has a bonus dark city dame with three-time Ms. Noir City Audra Wolfman joining us to make this the best Noirvember ever! Eddie's new book, DARK CITY DAMES, is available at Alibi Bookshop in Vallejo, Calif. and wherever you buy books.

Some THING is wrong.  On Missing Real.  So...are you intrigued?  Concerned?  That was more or less the menacing tagline I heard on the TV commercials back when this cheap sci-fi shlock was out in the theaters.  I didn't see it until I rented the VHS tape from Blockbuster (speaking of: this movie sure wasn't one!) and saw what the big deal was.  One good sign was that it starred pinup favorite and Charlie's Angel Farrah Fawcett.  The legendary Kirk Douglas was on board as well.  And some fellow named Harvey Keitel, who I'd never heard of, or HEARD, so I simply accepted his dubbed voice as legit.  I know much better now, but back then I'd be so thrilled over any movie with an alien monster or, in this case, killer robot who walks so slowly he makes Michael Myers look like Usain Bolt.  It ain't scary, and the special effect aren't so special, but it's a bit of a cult classic.  A movie doesn't have to be great to be loved.  The same might be said of podcasts, and now you can have both all wrapped in one amazing audio gift package.  I'll bet you that whatever you're planning to listen to today, my Saturn 3 podcast will run rings around it!   

Sam Clements is curating a fictional film festival. He'll accept almost anything, but the movie must not be longer than 90 minutes. This is the 90 Minutes Or Less Film Fest podcast.

For next week's movie, we'll be watching the 2009 bromance comedy I Love You, Man.

1947 marked the end of an era on Suspense as Roma Wines (“that's R-O-M-A”) ended its sponsorship of the program. But before it parted ways with “radio's outstanding theater of thrills,” it brought another big line-up of stars to the microphone, and this week we'll hear my favorite episodes from the year.

In the 1960s, Natalie Wood was one of the world's leading actress, her star shining as bright as Elizabeth Taylor's. She'd been acting since she was a small child, appearing in movies like Miracle on 34th Street. She'd starred opposite James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause, and she'd been linked romantically to Warren Beatty, Michael Caine, Elvis Presley, and Dennis Hopper. And her husband, actor Robert Wagner, may have gotten away with killing her off of Catalina Island in 1981, during a weekend getaway the couple shared with none other than Christoper Walken. For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com
