Front Row Classics is taking a look at the only Best Picture winning film from Alfred Hitchcock's canon. Brandon is joined by Peter Martin to discuss 1940's Rebecca. The film remains a favorite due to its gothic atmosphere and stellar performances. Brandon and Peter discuss the similarities and differences from Daphne du Maurier's novel along with the battle of wills between Hitchcock and producer David O. Selznick. The two also praise the performances of Laurence Olivier, Joan Fontaine and Judith Anderson.

Today, Matt and Todd dive into the original classic Clash of the Titans (1981), directed by Desmond Davis and starring: Harry Hamlin, Laurence Olivier, Judi Bowker, Maggie Smith, and Burgess Meredith.One of the most epic adventure films of its time, Clash of the Titans premiered in the summer of 1981, bringing the legendary Laurence Olivier to the screen as Zeus, whose command for the destruction of Argos sets off a thrilling chain of events.The film is best remembered for its groundbreaking special effects, crafted by the master of stop-motion animation, Ray Harryhausen. His work, including the unforgettable Medusa and Kraken sequences, remains influential in fantasy filmmaking.While Clash of the Titans takes heavy liberties with legendary accuracy, it delivers a thoroughly entertaining and timeless experience—a Greek legend reimagined through the lens of English playwrights and Hollywood sensibilities.We hope you love this fantasy classic as much as we do!Matt reviews and ranks more movies including newer ones at ⁠Letterboxd⁠You can find out what he's following on Bluesky @MovieMattSirois.bsky.socialCheck out favorites of what we follow, at: ⁠⁠⁠Once Upon a Geek⁠⁠⁠⁠ and  ⁠⁠⁠⁠The Fade Out Podcast⁠⁠ As Marcus he reviews all sorts of films but unlike here, they often they range from bad, worse, or terrible at the ⁠⁠⁠⁠MovieAsylum of the Weird, Bad and Wonderful⁠.

In der aktuellen Folge vom Filmmagazin widmen wir uns dem Paranoia-Thriller „Marathon Man“ von John Schlesinger aus dem Jahr 1976. Der Film mit Dustin Hoffman, Laurence Olivier und Roy Scheider gilt als Klassiker des New Hollywood und verbindet politische Verschwörung, NS-Vergangenheit und persönliche Traumata zu einem düsteren Katz-und-Maus-Spiel. Doch kann der Film auch heute noch begeistern? Wir diskutieren, warum die Story erst spät an Fahrt aufnimmt, wieso der Thriller trotz einiger Längen seine Wirkung entfaltet – und was die ikonische Zahnarzt-Folterszene mit dem Kinopublikum der 70er gemacht hat. Außerdem geht es um Misstrauen gegenüber staatlichen Institutionen, reale Bezüge zur McCarthy-Ära und die Frage, ob der Film seiner Zeit systemkritischer war, als es auf den ersten Blick scheint.

Dave McArthur and Bill Hodges stay sober and short while discussing the 1940 Best Picture Winner Rebecca, directed by Alfred Hitchcock and starring Joan Fontaine and Laurence Olivier.

Rebecca, Tori, and guest host Louise embark on a wallow into Shakespeare in honor of the Bard's April birthday. We delve into the 1955 Laurence Olivier adaptation of Shakespeare's Richard III. We chat about Richard's complex character, the portrayal of women, and the historical context surrounding the play. We discuss production choices like what was cut from the play and the use of color and shadow. We can't help but critique character portrayals, including the miscasting of King Edward and the performance of child actors. We end with some reflections on Olivier's vocal performance and its impact on the overall experience of the play.MusicApache Rock Instrumental | by Sound Atelier; licensed from JamendoRemember the Way | by Mid-Air Machine on the Free Music ArchiveSound EffectRecord Scratch Sound Effect free on PixabaySourcesThe Criterion Collection: Richard III: Red-Blooded RichardCriterion: Richard III, 1955 | Criterion Close-UpHistorical Royal Castles | Tower of LondonSt. Paul - Saints & Angels - Catholic OnlineGreat Britain National Archives | Richard IIIThe Royal Household | Richard IIINiccolò Machiavelli (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)16 Key Figures in the Wars of the Roses | History HitMy thoughts on: Richard III (1955) | Film Music Central

Originally from Wellington, Darren Clark is nominated for one of the highest gongs in the theatre world for his composing work in the West End production of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

Wes & Erin continue their discussion of the 1940 Best Picture winner "Rebecca," starring Joan Fontaine and Laurence Olivier.

Alfred Hitchcock's first American film—part love story, part ghost story, part courtroom melodrama—centers on a poor, timid young woman who falls in love with wealthy aristocrat Maxim de Winter, a widower tortured over the death of his first wife. When the young woman becomes the second Mrs. De Winter and moves into Maxim's estate, she finds her predecessor's initials stamped all over the house, and its staff in thrall to her beautiful, vibrant memory. But at the heart of the first Mrs. De Winter's legacy lies a rot, and just what that rot represents in the film—be it the oppressions of vitality and ambition, the wages of class mobility, the unruly desires of sexuality, or the latent evidence of civilizational decline—is our subject today. Wes & Erin discuss the 1940 Best Picture winner "Rebecca," starring Joan Fontaine and Laurence Olivier.

One of the most-legendary filmmakers of all time only directed one movie to a Best Picture Oscar…and Rebecca was it. Alfred Hitchcock slickly portrays the brutal treatment of the victimized newlywed Joan Fontaine. She's a target for everyone in the film, especially a vicious housekeeper played by Judith Anderson and a neglectful and possibly homicidal husband played by Laurence Olivier. But did Hitch enjoy what Fontaine's character goes through...or does he sympathize with her? And just how much of a compromise is the censored version of the unseen title character's fate in this stylish, gothic thriller? So throw the 648th edition of Have You Ever Seen into those holes in the sides of your head as we head to Manderley and whisper about what's going on in Rebecca.

Mel Gibson, Mutiny on the Bounty, and historical accuracy take center stage in this episode of Hugging the Cactus: A Mel Gibson Podcast. Join us as we dive into the 1984 film The Bounty, directed by Roger Donaldson, featuring an all-star cast including Anthony Hopkins, Daniel Day-Lewis, Liam Neeson, and Laurence Olivier. We explore the real-life mutiny that inspired this cinematic retelling, the troubled production history (including developmental hell, budget woes, and Mel Gibson's bar fights), and how it stacks up against earlier versions like the 1935 Clark Gable classic and the 1962 Marlon Brando film. From Robert Bolt's screenplay to Vangelis' soundtrack and Arthur Ibbetson's cinematography, we unpack why this historically accurate take didn't resonate with audiences or awards, despite its stunning visuals and epic scope. Was it the lack of a sequel, bad timing, or simply an unremakeable classic? Stick around for the full story of Fletcher Christian, Lieutenant Bligh, and a ship that changed naval history forever.

Lux Radio Theater "Goodbye Mr Chips" November 20, 1939 CBS starring Laurence Olivier 

We follow up Ben-Hur with another Hollywood epic, 1960's Spartacus directed by Stanley Kubrick. While set in the era of the Roman Republic, the film obliquely tackles many subjects of its era including McCarthyism, communist revolution, and the legacy of slavery. With stand-out performances by Kirk Douglas, Laurence Olivier, and Peter Ustinov, Spartacus delivers an entertaining spectacle whose legacy continued to influence films like Gladiator decades later.

EPISODE 71 - “STEVE & NAN's FAVORITE CLASSIC FILMS OF THE 1970s” - 1/20/2024 The 1970s was a decade that saw the rise of the auteur.

“HITCHCOCK's COLLABORATORS FROM THE GOLDEN AGE” - (068) ALFRED HITCHCOCK, the iconic “Master of Suspense,” loved to work with certain actors over and over again.

This week, we take a fun look at some of the actors who he loved to work with. So, which actor did he put in more of his films than anyone else? The answer may surprise you.

She has been a member of Laurence Olivier's National Theatre company and the Royal Shakespeare Company; she is well known for her roles in acclaimed films like Educating Rita and The Pianist; and most recently she has had an award-winning run in soap Coronation Street. For a generation she will always be 'Beattie': the grandmother from the BT adverts.

EPISODE 66 - “WHEN CLASSIC FILM'S SUPPORTING ACTORS STEAL THE SHOW” - 12/16/2024 There is nothing quite like watching a film when suddenly a supporting character comes in and walks away with the film.

This week we are focusing on some of our favorite supporting charters who come in and snatch that scene right about from under the big stars.

Carole Boyd has been in the Archers since the mid 80's. Following her training at the City of Birmingham University she then won BBC's Carlton Hobbs award which involved a 6 month contract with  BBC Radio Drama Company.  But she started acting age 3, when, whilst being bored in long cinema queues, she used to sing and dance to entertain the other queue members.  Carole voices all the female voices on ‘Postman Pat', fell in love with Laurence Olivier in her early teens, and looked after her husband for twenty years after he had a stroke which removed half his brain. Though remarkably Patrick retained his speech and sense of humour.  Carole talks about techniques to manipulate your voice and use it to be as expressive as your face.  Bunny first met Carole when they were on the same team for University Challenge, and she describes her favourite colourful plants which she likens to ‘NewBerry Fruit Jewels' a jelly type of sweet.  #thearchers #bunnyguinnesspodcast

PREVIEW: GONE WITH THE WIND: Conversation with author Scott Eyman, "CHARLIE CHAPLIN VS AMERICA," re the search for Scarlett O'Hara in 1938 that included Charlie Chaplin and Laurence Olivier. MORE LATER 1945 HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD

Released in 1977, A Bridge Too Far stands as the last grand-scale WWII film produced by the Hollywood studio system. The film ambitiously sought to bring to life Operation Market-Garden, the bold but ultimately doomed Allied campaign of September 1944, culminating in the failed attempt to capture the Arnhem bridge. Producer Joseph E. Levine gathered an incredible ensemble cast, featuring legends like Anthony Hopkins, Robert Redford, Sean Connery, James Caan, Michael Caine, Elliott Gould, Dirk Bogarde, and Laurence Olivier. The movie was shot on location in Holland, with the town of Deventer doubling as Arnhem to recreate the intense and chaotic battle scenes. In this episode of the WW2 Podcast, I'm joined by Simon Lewis, author of Making 'A Bridge Too Far.'   patreon.com/ww2podcast

‘I am Spartacus!' In the field of epic film making, the 1960 historical drama ‘Spartacus' is legendary. Directed by Stanley Kubrick, and starring Kirk Douglas and Laurence Olivier, it is undoubtedly a classic. But how much of the plot has emerged from the true story of a Thracian gladiator and slave who escaped his Roman captors and led an unsuccessful but impressive rebellion against their oppressors? And how much of the film's message was formed by the personalities involved in its creation, and the context in which it was made?In her own words, Dr Fiona Radford devoted years of her life to the man with the most memorable chin cleft in the world - Kirk Douglas, specifically as Spartacus. Her thesis traced the production history of this film, examining in particular the effect that the turbulent process had on the portrayal of female characters. Having taught at Macquarie University, ANU and the University of Sydney, she currently teaches history at secondary school level, and her conversation with Tristan in this episode is an eye-opener to 1950s film making as well as the legend of Spartacus.Enjoy unlimited access to award-winning original documentaries that are released weekly and AD-FREE podcasts.
