Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review, where this week we're taking a neon-lit, blood-soaked trip through the moody underworld of Bangkok with Nicolas Winding Refn's Only God Forgives (2013). If you thought Drive was a stylish slow burn, this one cranks up the stillness, strips back the dialogue, and drops you into a hallucinatory revenge opera that's equal parts mesmerizing and maddening.Ryan Gosling stars as Julian, a quiet, emotionally blank drug smuggler running a Muay Thai gym as a front in Bangkok. When his volatile brother Billy is murdered for committing an unspeakable crime, their monstrous mother Crystal (Kristin Scott Thomas) arrives in town demanding vengeance. Julian is reluctantly pulled into a spiral of violence and surreal symbolism, facing off against Chang (Vithaya Pansringarm), a sword-wielding police lieutenant who dispenses his own brutal, godlike justice. Refn drenches the screen in glowing reds and deep shadows, pairing every scene with an eerie, droning score from Cliff Martinez. The film is light on plot and even lighter on dialogue—Gosling speaks fewer than 20 lines—but the atmosphere is thick enough to cut with a katana.Only God Forgives is a fever dream of a film—icy cold yet visually scorching. It's like a revenge thriller that's been put through a Lynchian blender, leaving behind a hushed, haunted meditation on masculinity, vengeance, and judgement. If you want action, go elsewhere. If you want mood and madness, step right in.

A new podcast episode of "Sound Speed Action" is out now — and with it we start at the beginning with the 1996 thriller “Mission Impossible” to kick off this series.Brian DePalma (Scarface, Carlito's Way) adapts the beloved thriller series for the big screen in a way that no one else can. He has a style all to himself. A really fun thing with this movie is that there is always so much detail and information to be taken from any scene you are watching in this movie. In every viewing you will definitely have a moment of “oh I didn't notice that before!”The action set pieces from the initial embassy job, to the Langley break-in scene, to the TGV helicopter chase — this movie set the bar high for action!Did we mention this movie also has a crazy fun cast? Tom Cruise, Jon Voight, Kristin Scott Thomas, Ving Rhames, Jean Reno and Vanessa Redgrave!Danny Elfman makes this movie a thrill with his exciting and dramatic soundtrack which is made only better by Lalo Schifrin's original Mission Impossible theme track and a sneaky inclusion of music too by The Cranberries and U2 members Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr.The gadgets that don't always work, the tension created by ultra-silent moments during missions (Langley), the stunts, the fights — this movie is an absolute ride.One area that we were a little split on with this movie is that DePalma does a great job at trusting his audience to pay attention, read between the lines, and figure things out themselves. The other side of that is that this movie has been critiqued by some saying that the plot at times can feel a little overly complicated. Still, whatever view you have there, it's hard to deny how fun and original this movie was (and still is), at the time it was released.“Mission Impossible” is streaming now on Paramount Plus and Prime Video and is available to rent and buy on all platforms too. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit sohrabsmovieq.substack.com

Dame Kristin Scott Thomas is one of our best, most distinctive, and most watchable actresses, and we're delighted that she's our guest on Rosebud today. Dame Kristin tells Gyles about her childhood, which was at times idyllic but was coloured by the tragic deaths of both her father and step-father. She talks about her impressive and highly talented mother, who brought up five children in the midst of loss. She talks about her move to Paris as a teenager, how she met and married her first husband, and how important her new French family became to her. She talks about her career, working with Prince, how she was cast in The English Patient and her work on stage in The Audience and Elektra. Kristin's life is fascinating, and this is a fascinating, and moving, episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture With the release of "Conclave," Ralph Fiennes is finally an Oscar nominee once again after nearly thirty years since his last nomination for Anthony Minghella's 1996 film "The English Patient." The epic romance WWII drama went on to win a leading 9 Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and was a critical and box office success. Starring Fiennes, Juliette Binoche, Willem Dafoe, Kristin Scott Thomas, Naveen Andrews, Colin Firth, Julian Wadham, and Jürgen Prochnowwe, the film has had a bit of a divisive reaction as the years have gone on.

Gosford Park de Robert Altman sort en 2001. Cʹest la quintessence du film à énigme dans le style Agatha Christie mais à la sauce altmanienne, cʹest-à-dire dans un manoir anglais, en 1932, avec une multitude de personnages qui se croisent et bien sûr, un meurtre. Ça vous fait penser à la série Downton Abbey, cʹest normal, cʹest le même scénariste, Julian Fellowes. Lʹhistoire de Gosford Park est surtout celle dʹun milieu, une société anglaise bipartite entre les domestiques et leurs maîtres. Ils se croisent tous les jours, mais les classes ne se mélangent pas. Et si les secrets des domestiques sont partagés uniquement entre eux, les secrets des maîtres sont connus de toutes et de tous. Car qui connaît mieux son maître que son valet ? Robert Altman, réalisateur américain, choisit la Grande Bretagne et ses châteaux, pour planter le décor de ce film, une énigme policière à lʹanglaise, un " Whodunit ", un genre qui lʹa toujours passionné mais quʹil nʹavait jamais osé traité. Et il se lance enfin à 76 ans avec son producteur Bob Balaban. Cʹest dʹailleurs sur une idée de Bob Balaban et de Robert Altman que le scénariste britannique, Jullian Fellowes développe une intrigue à tiroirs dont lʹintérêt tient principalement au fait que toute lʹhistoire est montrée du point de vue des domestiques. Le casting de ce film est aussi royal que la demeure qui habite lʹintrigue : Maggie Smith, Michael Gambon, Kristin Scott Thomas, Camilla Rutherford, Tom Hollander, Stephen Fry, Clive Oven, Emily Watson, Helen Mirren, Eileen Atkins, Alan Bates. A sa sortie, le film est unanimement célébré par la presse et plébiscité par le public. Il obtient 7 nominations aux Oscars et remporte celui du meilleur scénario. Quant à Robert Altman il repart avec un Bafta et le Golden Globe du meilleur réalisateur.

Send us a textIn a decades spanning career, Lia Williams has established herself as one of the most prominent actresses working today. At the start of her career, Lia was already working with the likes of David Hare, Alan Ayckbourn and Harold Pinter, with whom she would go on to share a long working relationship and friendship. On screen, some of her many highlights have included playing Wallis Simpson in The Crown and more recently Paula Vennels in Mr Bates vs The Post Office. In recent years, we've also seen her prove herself to be a terrific director, finding herself at the helm on various short films and later also directing highly acclaimed productions of Ashes to Ashes and Doubt: A Parable. Some of Lia's upcoming projects include a new TV adaptation of The Day of the Jackal and also reprising her role in the highly acclaimed BBC drama: The Capture. In this exclusive interview to mark 100 episodes of our podcast series, Lia Williams sits down to look back over her illustrious career. We hear her talk about her early career, finding her way through challenging roles like Kyra in Skylight, acting opposite Michael Gambon as well as playing Carol in Oleanna opposite David Suchet. We also get to hear her talk about her experiences of alternating roles with Juliet Stevenson and Kristin Scott-Thomas on the highly acclaimed productions of Mary Stuart and Old Times. Over the course of our conversation, Lia tells us about how the acting profession has changed during her career and talks us through her transition into becoming a well-respected director as well. In this very candid conversation, Lia reflects on the various roles that she's played and takes some time to also discuss her relationship with son and fellow actor: Joshua James, with whom she starred with in The Vortex last year. It's a fascinating insight into one of our greatest leading ladies and we look forward to seeing how her career continues to evolve in the future.Support the show

Shane takes a look at two films that I had hopes would turn out better than they were. Harrison Ford and Kristin Scott Thomas completely lack any chemistry in “Random Hearts” and Mary Catherine Gallagher gets her own full-length feature film. Shane does manage to find some good things to discuss amidst these disappointments.

The Apple TV+ show Slow Horses is a critical darling; it has received rave reviews since it first came out in 2022, and with season four in full swing, some critics are begging you to watch. But does this season deserve the hype? Or has the show's premise run its course? The series, an anti-James Bond drama starring an unkempt Gary Oldman as the head of MI5's flunky spy department, is based on the Mick Herron spy novel series, Slough House. Lilah is joined by a diehard fan of the novels, FT columnist and executive editor Robert Shrimsley, and the FT's chief features writer Henry Mance.-------Want to stay in touch?

TOB followers know that we are obsessed with discovering positive and powerful roles for older women in movies and TV. That's why we lure our sister Screen Bitches -- Debbie Zimmerman (Women Make Movies), Malaga Baldi (Baldi Literary Agency) and Aruna Rao (Gender at Work)  – onto the podcast at least twice a year to schmooze about what we're watching and how TV and movies challenge (or regrettably affirm) stereotypes of older women in popular media. This time, we were kind of gobsmacked. For three reasons. First, because Debbie was inducted into the Academy of Motion Pictures and Sciences (Oscars!) this year --so this episode features her firsthand account of an Academy newbie, walking the (other) red carpet. Second, because we actually found at least one film and a dramatic series with really superb portrayals of older women. If you haven't seen Slow Horses (Apple TV) or Nyad (Netflix), stop what you're doing right now and tune in. We thought that Annette Bening and Jodie Foster were extraordinary in the way they portrayed 60-year old Diana Nyad and her best friend Bonnie Stoll in Nyad's swim from Cuba to Florida. (Only three of us loved the movie.) And while they are not main characters, three —not one, but three!— powerful and pivotal women over 50 in Slow Horses – Sophie Okonedo, Saskia Reeves, and Kristin Scott Thomas  -- epitomize characteristics you rarely see attributed to women of a certain age.    And third, we were so inspired – especially by Slow Horses – that TOB is now launching a screening tool to let movie and TV makers know we're watching. You know how Alison Bechdel brilliantly coined The Bechdel Test as a set of three simple criteria to measure the active presence (or absence) of women in film? Well, we love that test – and appreciate the influence it's had on generating more and better roles for women -- so we're introducing The TOBies, a set of 5 criteria to measure the quality of presence of OLDER women in TV and film. And they are that the older women are: 1) NOT solely defined by their age; 2) integral to the plot; 3) making independent choices (e.g., they have agency); 4) NOT seeking a man as ‘the prize'; 5) there are at least two older women (e.g., no tokenism). We'd love to know what you think! And to know if you see any films or TV shows where you think the portrayals of older women meet these criteria.

For this week's episode of the podcast, we watched director Brian De Palma's 1996 adaptation of Mission: Impossible, starring Tom Cruise, Jon Voight, Henry Czerny (Kittridge!), Emmanuelle Béart, Jean Reno, Ving Rhames, Kristin Scott Thomas and Vanessa Redgrave. It was shot by frequent De Palma collaborator Stephen H. Burum and edited by Paul Hirsch. Screenplay by David Koepp and Robert Towne. Mission: Impossible, based on the television series, was the inaugural project of Tom Cruise's production company, and the Mission: Impossible franchise has become a core part of Cruise's celebrity career. The film was generally well-received by critics, although there were complaints about its convoluted plot, and was one of the biggest hits of 1996, grossing nearly $181 million on a budget of $45 million.In Mission: Impossible, Cruise plays Ethan Hunt, a member of the Impossible Missions Force who is on the run after his entire team — including its leader, Jim Phelps, played by John Voight — is killed in a failed mission to obtain a secretive list of every undercover CIA agent. When Hunt learns that the mission was actually a staged hunt for a mole within the IMF — and that the real mole is still out there, seeking the list — he goes on the run in an effort to obtain the list for himself, expose the mole, and regain his freedom. To do so, he recruits his own Impossible Mission Team — comprised of Ving Rhames, Jean Reno and Emmanuelle Beart — and stages a break-in at CIA headquarters in Langley. What unfolds next is a series of twists, turns, surprises and betrayals.The tagline for Mission: Impossible was “Expect the Impossible.” You can Mission: Impossible to rent or buy on Amazon and iTunes, and to stream on Amazon Prime Video and Paramount Plus.Our next episode is Michael Bay's action thriller, The Rock.Connor Lynch produced this episode.

A DePalmber to ReMalmber reaches its thrilling conclusion as our intrepid director kicks off an action mega-franchise with an opening entry that's far more 'film' than 'flick' -- it's 1996's Mission: Impossible, directed by Brian DePalma, written by David Koepp and Robert Towne, and starring Tom Cruise, Jon Voight, Emmanuelle Béart, Henry Czerny, Jean Reno, Ving Rhames, Vanessa Redgrave, Kristin Scott Thomas, Emilio Estevez and Rolf Saxon. This classic of the 90s now takes its rightful place in the ADHD-DVD canon. Somehow, perhaps in viewing it within the context of some of DePalma's broader work, both hosts enjoyed this movie more than ever before on this latest rewatch. All that plus-with bonus-also: Justin's got theatrical field reports on The Holdovers and Godzilla Minus One, and Hayley can't receive gifts. Other works discussed in this episode include The Boy and the Heron, Godzilla (1997, 2014), Godzilla vs Kong, Friday Night Lights, Fooled Around Fell In Love by Elvin Bishop, Guardians of the Galaxy, Topkapi, and the entire Mission: Impossible franchise. If you'd like to watch the film before listening to our discussion, and it's not a requirement though in the case of a fine film such as this we do recommend you do, it can be found streaming on Paramount+(with). We'll be back next week with the first annual Shaqmas celebration on the program, as we honour Hayley's holiday tradition by watching a film starring Shaquille O'Neal on Christmas. This year it's friend and former guest EJ Feddes making his return with an unseen film from his collection: Steel (1997), starring Shaq as John Henry Irons, DC Comics' black Superman. It's... not very good, which should make it lots of fun to talk about, so we'll see you next week at the movies!

It's time to celebrate two legends. As Michael (our lovely co-host and producer) celebrates his birthday, he wanted to focus an episode on one his absolute favourite actors... Kristin Scott Thomas!

Join us as we cover Kristin's film career including Four Wedding And A Funeral (Mike Newell, 1994), her Oscar-nominated performance in The English Patient (Anthony Minghella, 1996), Keeping Mum (Niall Johnson, 2005), I've Loved You So Long (Philippe Claudel, 2008), Only God Forgives (Nicolas Winding Refn, 2013) and Military Wives (Peter Cattaneo, 2019).  Beyond this we look into the future and dream up some roles we would love to see Kristin get the opportunity to tackle.

What is it like for an actor waiting in the wings in the moments before they go on stage? What has their journey been to arrive at that point, in full costume and make-up? And what motivates them to overcome their anxieties before stepping out in front of an audience?"I've always had this thing five minutes beforehand - I don't want to go on. It says start at 7.30... at 7.35 I'm hating everyone. I'm like, 'I don't want to do this. I don't have to be here. I've got other things to do'. It's five minutes of absolute fear."For some actors, Hollywood stardom beckons. But for many, success in the industry looks very different.Outside of coveted castings in illustrious Marvel series or Broadway productions, thousands of actors will apply their craft in village halls and local theatres, as well as commercial gigs such as role plays for professional training."When you've got a full house (at) the Royal Albert Hall clapping and cheering... you think 'this is incredible'. But again... I love doing the village halls. Some of my best memories of doing the village halls was the impact that you make on communities."In this revealing discussion ranging from things going wrong in front of a live audience, to the importance of tight teamwork with backstage colleagues, playwright and director Mary Swan hosts an entertaining and insightful exploration of the work/life realities for modern actors.Mary's guests for this episode areMary Rose, who has performed on Broadway alongside Kristin Scott Thomas in a Royal Court production of The Seagull, as well as an acclaimed one-woman show, 12.10.15 at the Edinburgh Festival.Mary plays artist Catherine Shaw in Proteus Theatre's stage production, Indestructible.Paul Huntley-Thomas appears in the Disney+ Marvel mini-series Secret Invasion and the 2DF Studios feature Lost Women Spies.

How do we respond to much-loved works of art when the behaviour of the artist comes into question? And can we truly enjoy artworks by people who have committed crimes or been abusive to colleagues and family members?"I have a friend who has a Rolf Harris painting... It's a really great painting, and they bought it as an investment.. And then it all came out about his past and the imprisonment and stuff, and she's like, 'Well, what do we do with it now?'"Where do we draw the line between the art and the artist? And do we do a dis-service to the other creatives who collaborate on music and film projects by rejecting the work?"If you think about modern celebrities... no publicity is bad publicity. Where do you draw the line? Because there would be a lot of building those brands. The behaviour is notorious... and that can make someone really exciting."In this deep-dive discussion playwright and director Mary Swan hosts an important and often surprising inquiry into how we respond when culture and morality collide.Mary's guests for this episode areMary Rose, who has performed on Broadway alongside Kristin Scott Thomas in a Royal Court production of The Seagull, as well as an acclaimed one-woman show, 12.10.15 at the Edinburgh Festival.Mary plays artist Catherine Shaw in Proteus Theatre's stage production, Indestructible.Paul Huntley-Thomas appears in the Disney+ Marvel mini-series Secret Invasion and the 2DF Studios feature Lost Women Spies.

Daniel Rachel's book Too Much Too Young: The 2 Tone Records Story is a new history of the iconic record label. He's joined by Pauline Black, lead singer of The Selecter, to discuss the cultural impact of the Ska music it released. Actor Martin Shaw remembers the late, great theatre impresario Bill Kenwright, whose productions included Willy Russell's Blood Brothers and Andrew Lloyd-Webber's Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, who has died at the age of 78.

In Lyonesse, Kristin Scott Thomas plays Elaine, a star who gave up her career and retreated to a remote house on a Cornish cliff. 30 years later she decides she must return and tell her story.

Although European leaders have stepped up in many ways to support Ukraine, the war has also laid bare Europe's profound dependence on the United States. This reality was at the heart of French president Emmanuel Macron's recent call for more “strategic autonomy”, which stirred a new debate over the transatlantic power imbalance. It was also the topic of a new publication, “The Art of Vassalisation”, from ECFR's research director, Jeremy Shapiro, and senior policy fellow and head of the Berlin office, Jana Puglierin, who join week Mark Leonard for this week's episode. What factors influence “vassalisation”, and is it really more beneficial for the Americans? And how seriously are Europeans taking the risk of a Republican victory in 2024? This podcast was recorded on 3 April 2023. Please note that we adapted the introduction to Macron's interview on 9 April, but some views of our experts might be outdated. An in-depth analysis of the current events will soon follow in an extra episode.

You might think you know all there is to know about today's guest. Posh girl who once dated Princess Margaret's son. Half of the early noughties style duo Trinny and Susannah. Plus a short-lived and strangely identifiable turn on Strictly as the slightly embarrassing older woman who can't really dance. (Hands up who over-identified!) Because that's what the media has told us. But look at it another way, Susannah Constantine is a novelist, writer and broadcaster with over 25 years experience. She's a hit podcaster (My Wardrobe Malfunction is a hoot - check out the episode with Kristin Scott Thomas!) and, on the cusp of 60, she's just written a game changing memoir that will make you think more than twice about what it really means to be a girl brought up in privilege; a girl brought up to be Ready For Absolutely Nothing.Susannah joined me from her swanky kitchen to talk extremely candidly about hitting rock bottom before she could confront her alcoholism, her complicated relationship with her mother, rediscovering her identity after it was ripped away and how she experienced a mental menopause. PLUS surviving Strictly humiliation, Dolph Lundgren and having tea with the queen.* You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at Bookshop.org, including Ready For Absolutely Nothing by Susannah Constantine and the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me!* And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including transcripts of the podcast, please join The Shift community.
