"Hello, my name is Russell McGee, I am the writer, director, and Starrynight Productions Executive Producer of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. You are about to listen to Episode 1 – The Company of Friends. In this episode, the adventures of young Dorothy Gale and her dog, Toto, begin when their Kansas home is swept away by a cyclone and they find themselves in the strange land of Oz. Here she meets the good witch, Locasta Tattypoo, and the Munchkins. She is then joined by the Scarecrow, Tin Woodman, and Cowardly Lion on an unforgettable journey to the Emerald City, where lives the all-powerful Wizard of Oz. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (commonly known as The Wizard of Oz”), is the first book in the famous Oz fourteen book series by author L. Frank Baum. It was originally illustrated by W. W. Denslow, and published at the turn of the 20th century in the year 1900. It is also widely considered to be one of the very first official American fairytales or fables. WFIU Public Radio partnered with Starrynight Productions and Soundbooth Theater on a new four-part audio adaptation of L. Frank Baum's book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Writer/director Russell McGee (of Big Finish Productions Doctor Who audio plays) and producer/actor Michael Brainard (of All My Children) collaborated with Soundbooth's Jeff Hays to produce this full-cast audio play series. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz features the talents of voice actors P.J. Ochlan (known for Young Sheldon and Little Man Tate), Franc Ross (known for Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, and Deadwood), Greta Lind (known for Rudy and All My Children), Bert Rotundo (known for Silicon Valley and Marvel's Agent Carter), Leraldo Anzaldua (known for Gatchaman and Highschool of the Dead), and a cast of many others. The entire series first aired on WFIU, Bloomington, in February and March of 2023. Since that time, episode one has been available to listen for free on the Starrynight Productions website. The entire series is being distributed by Soundbooth Theater on their digital distribution platform. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was made possible with support from Indiana Public Broadcasting Stations. We hope you enjoy listening to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz - Episode 1 – The Company of Friends." cw: cartoon violence No transcript available. http://www.starrynight-productions.com/wonderful-wizard-oz/

On the previous episode we promised a Nic Cage top ten up next, but we're gonna withhold that a little bit for now, and change up the formula a little. From here we're going to include more Round Ups and Bonus episodes that break off from the double feature format. So that means today's the day for Round up Three! The movies mentioned on this episode are The Platform (2019) , Dune (1984), Beau is Afraid (2023), Exists (2011), Resurrection (2022), The Misfits (1961), Over the Edge (1979), Little Man Tate (1991) and The Nightingale (2018). They also consider a Kevin Costner Apocalypse double feature for the future, but an entire world of water might be a bit too much to handle.

Jodie Foster considers this the second in an extremely personal trilogy of films she directed. Little Man Tate and The Beaver round out that trilogy. The always excellent Holly Hunt goes home to spend Thanksgiving with her very dysfunctional family. Robert Downey Jr. is insanely wonderful and wonderfully insane as her black sheep brother. Anne Bancroft and Charles Durning play the parents doing everything in their power to keep the family together and the holiday tradition alive. Cynthia Stevenson completes the family as the tightly wound oldest sister. The entire cast is extraordinary and the writing and directing is so sharp. It's like a Thanksgiving David Mamet cinematic feast!If you saw this underrated gem and enjoyed it too, let us know.

Jodie Foster, född 1962, debuterade som treåring i en reklamfilm för sololja. Nu får hon Hedersguldpalmen i Cannes för sina insatser inom filmen. Hon är också vår kritiker Nina Asarnojs idol sedan filmen "Bugsy Malone" 1976. I går kväll invigdes filmfestivalen i Cannes och en av huvudpersonerna på röda mattan var skådespelaren och regissören Jodie Foster som i år får Hedersguldpalmen för lång och trogen tjänst. I dokumentären Jodie Foster hela livet på film som ligger på SVT Play just nu, berättar Jodie Foster att hon knappt har några vanliga barndomsminnen. Hon kommer mest ihåg olika inspelningslokaler i Hollywood. För sedan tre års ålder har hon stått framför kameran. Men också regisserat, både film och TV, som avsnitt av House of Cards, Black Mirror och Orange is the new black. Och i år får hon alltså hedersguldpalmen i Cannes för sina insatser inom filmen. Vi bestämde oss för att återberätta delar av hennes filmliv, en karriär som alltså sträcker sig över sex decennier, trots att Jodie Foster bara är född 1962. Jag såg Jodie Foster första gången på biograf Astoria i Stockholm där filmen Bugsy Malone av Alan Parker hade premiär 1976. En maffiafilm med barn i alla roller. Jag var elva år och helt förtrollad av hennes nattklubbs-primadonna Tallulah. Ofattbart vacker och världsvan med två ljusa lockar klistrade i pannan. Jodie Foster, som då var 13-14 år gjorde en streetsmart sångerska som spelade på sin sexualitet och försökte konkurrera ut hjälten Bugsy Malones mer tvåldoftande flickvän Blousey Brown. Rent visuellt ser filmen ut som något av Woody Allens mest New York-nostalgiska verk, som Radio Days, en filmisk sagovärld i 20-talsstil med slinkiga klänningar, tunna koftor och långa cancan-ben. Men i stället för vanlig skottlossning mellan de rivaliserande gängen i Bugsy Malone, sköt pistolerna gräddskott och de svarta, ålderdomliga bilarna trampades fram med hjälp av pedaler under karossen. Jodie Foster var vid tretton års ålder redan en rutinerad yrkeskvinna. Hon hade spelat in reklam och TV-serier sedan hon var tre och regissören Alan Parker berättar i en intervju om inspelningen av Bugsy Malone, att Jodie verkade äldre än hon var. Citat: Hon var inget barn, hon bara låtsades vara det. Hon hade järnkoll på klockan och barnskådespelares fackliga rättigheter, så att hon och de andra barnen kunde dra iväg på egna äventyr. Så här drygt fyrtio år senare kan det tyckas lite märkligt att hon gjorde två avancerade Lolita-roller samma år. 1976 spelade Jodie Foster också en tolvårig barnprostituerad i Martin Scorseses Taxi Driver. I filmen blir mötet mellan henne och den förvirrade taxichauffören Travis Bickle en vändpunkt för båda. Han bestämmer sig för att rädda den tolvåriga Iris från livet på gatan. Jodie Foster är med i ganska få scener i Taxi Driver men filmen blev hennes genombrott och hon Oscarsnominerades också för sin roll. Det som förenar Tallulah i Bugsy Malone med Iris i Taxi Driver är deras skinn på näsan och en omisskännlig integritet. För trots att det alltid handlar om professionellt skådespeleri så förmedlar Jodie Foster i alla sina roller ett slags privat skärpa. Jag tror faktiskt att just hennes intelligens nämns i alla artiklar jag har läst om henne. Och det är många. Det är alltid lite suddigt och oklart vad den där intelligensen egentligen består i, men jag tycker mig uppfatta att 1) Jodie Foster spelar inte på sin kvinnlighet, inte ens på bilderna i tidningen. 2) Hon var duktig i skolan. Jodie Foster har en BA i afroamerikansk litteratur från Yale och eftersom hon gick i en helfransk skola i Los Angeles talar hon dessutom flytande franska. Det berättar hon i dokumentären Jodie Foster hela livet på film: Men kanske är den där intelligensen mer en fråga om integritet. För trots att Jodie Foster tillbringat stora delar av sin barndom i olika inspelningsstudior i Hollywood, är hennes distans till branschen större än de flestas. Kanske har den där distansen också att göra med att hon växte upp med en ensamstående mamma som slet som ett djur för att Jodie och hennes tre syskon skulle få tillgång till kvalitetskultur och en god utbildning. Hon var ingen vanlig, privilegierad Hollywoodunge. Ingen Lindsey Lohan eller Paris Hilton. Hon vägrade också länge gå ut offentligt med att hon levde med kvinnor, något som retat gallfeber på HBTQ-rörelsen i USA. Och den där flytande franskan förresten, den imponerade inte bara på journalisterna, det var också den som gav henne en roll i Claude Chabrols film Andras blod från 1984 efter en roman av Simone de Beauvoir. När Claude Chabrol berättar om deras gemensamma arbete i dokumentären Jodie Foster hela livet på film, säger han att hon var lika mycket medregissör som skådespelare. Alltid full av idéer kring regin och möjliga rolltolkningar. Och regidebuteerade gjorde hon 1991 med Little Man Tate om en ensamstående mamma som upptäcker att hennes barn är särbegåvat. Lite som hon själv alltså. Två Oscarsstatyetter har hon fått, en för rollen som Clarice Starling i När lammen tystnar, en film som trettioårs-jubilerar nu 2021 och så en Oscar för gestaltningen av våldtäktsoffret Sarah Tobias i filmen Anklagad, 1988. En film som lyckas problematisera domstolarnas fixering vid offrets egen skuld i valet av klädedräkt och grad av berusning. Erfarenheterna från skådespeleriet tar hon med sig in i regissörsrollen. En av Jodie Fosters allra bästa insatser som regissör tycker jag är ett avsnitt av den hajpade TV-serien Black Mirror. Serien består av fem säsonger science fiction med stark samtidskänsla på Netflix, skapad av engelsmannen Charlie Brooker, om vad teknikutvecklingen kan göra med oss människor. Avsnittet som Jodie Foster regisserat heter Arkangel och är från säsong 4, 2017. Det handlar om en överbeskyddande mamma som låter operera in någon typ av mikrochip i sin dotters hjärna, så att hon kan se det dottern ser och kontrollera varje steg hon tar via en liten skärm. Något som är ganska begripligt så länge dottern är liten men som blir allt mer skruvat Jodie Foster vet att alla föräldrars skräck är att tappa bort sitt barn och att kunna lokalisera barnet genom telefonen är inte bara science fiction utan också något många verkliga föräldrar faktiskt gör i smyg. Hon gör mamman i det här avsnittet till en kombination av helt vanlig mamma och överbeskyddande monster och konsekvenserna är förödande. Jag visste inte att det var Jodie Foster som regisserat det här Black Mirror-avsnittet när jag såg det första gången, men jag konstaterade snabbt att det var det bästa jag sett av alla de fem säsongerna. Jodie Foster verkar ha en unik förmåga att snoka upp kvalitetsprojekt. Hon har även regisserat avsnitt av House of Cards och Orange is the new black om livet i ett kvinnofängelse. Politiskt medveten kvalitets-TV. Typiskt Jodie. Men politiskt korrekt är hon bara på sitt eget sätt. När Roman Polanski är en persona non grata i resten av filmbranschen, då gör Jodie Foster det hon alltid har gjort, väljer efter eget huvud, tar rollen gubbslemmet slash filmgeniet, erbjuder, och spelar mesig vänsterliberal kulturkvinna i kammarspelet Carnage från 2011. En helt strålande film. Alla som varit på ett föräldramöte och mött den aggressivitet som kan uppstå där, vet vad jag menar. Två föräldrapar möts i en Brooklynlägenhet för att reda ut en konflikt mellan deras elvaåriga söner, där den ena har skadat den andra med en pinne Kanske sammanfattar rollen som Penelope i Polanskis Carnage varför jag älskar Jodie Foster. Att hon för mig alltid har inneburit något slags kvalitetsgaranti. Här kommer ingen prydlig kulturupplevelse med rosett runt. Tvärtom får jag se mig själv och mina fega medelklassvärderingar i en brutal skrattspegel. Hon är förstås klädd ungefär som jag, i konstiga färger: rödaktig kjol, lila tajt tröja och en brun musig kofta över. Bokhyllor överallt. Det är härligt att se sig själv förvriden i Hollywoodhusets rörliga filmspeglar. Dokumentären Jodie Foster hela livet på film finns att se på SVT Play. "Bugsy Malone" går att streama på Itunes, "Taxi Driver" finns på SF Anytime, "När lammen tystnar" och "Carnage" finns på Viaplay och "Black Mirror" på Netflix.

Little Man Tate broke out of the exciting Sheffield scene in 2005 alongside the likes of Arctic Monkeys and Reverend and The Makers and immediately developed a dedicated fan base with their infectious guitars and sing-a-long hooks on the likes of Sexy In Latin and Man I Hate Your Band. Singer Jon and guitarist Maz tell The Boys in the Band Podcast about that rise, their relationship with their local rivals, how they used MySpace and forums to connect with their fans - and their newly-announced comeback gig.

Joseph Food is joined on the show by music blogger Mark Perkins, ex-Little Man Tate frontman Jon Windle and music promoter Neil Hargreaves for a look at the latest in music news and review releases from the Sheffield scene.

We "make a little movie magic" with actor/writer Adam Hann-Byrd as he "pulls back the curtain" to reveal that not all that glitters is gold in Hollywoodland - in fact there are a couple of nice-sized turds here and there.  From having "fart wars" with Leslie Nielsen, to dealing with primadonnas on the backlot, to having to pee while during a love scene with Emmanuelle Chriqui, to just wanting to be a regular kid, the man Jodie Foster coined "Little Man Tate" has stories for days (including a number from Halloween H20; one of Geoff's favorites)!  Lots of grips and gaffes on this week's WORST GIG EVER!

Harry Connickuh everybody! In celebration of that, we check in with Little Man Tate, the 1991 kid dramedy starring (and directed by) Jodie Foster. Foster plays Dede, a working class mom in New York who struggles to raise her little man, Fred Tate, a young genius, and the pressures of celebrity and achievement coming from the early-90s obsession with kid geniuses. Connick himself also stars (well, cameos) as a charismatic college student who teaches Fred the ways of pool and awkwardly walking in on someone having sex. Despite its good intentions, the film's a bit of a slog, and most of the characters (particularly Fred) don't have the charisma to carry a feature film. Nonetheless, give it a shot and find out what you think, bolstered by our custom cocktail and rules!

Cole, Vanessa and special guest Janet Varney ("Dinner and a Movie," "Entourage") talk Corey Haim, celebrity crushes, the biosphere, shirtless saxophone solos, Dan Fielding's wardrobe, Little Man Tate, and Andie MacDowell's "acting."  

Episode 30 – Movie Meltdown - This week we continue with the second half of our Veronica Cartwright Double Feature as we watch the 1978 version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. This unusually good remake also stars Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams, Jeff Goldblum and Leonard Nimoy. We go in-depth on the finer points of Philip Kaufman's film, including the addition of the conspiracies angle, the creepy mood, interesting shots and a minor comparison to the 1956 original. And we try to get over the fact that we are all now traumatized by Donald Sutherland's face! - Plus we feature part two of our exclusive interview with Veronica Cartwright! - And as we pet the human-faced dog, we also discuss... The Tracey Fragments, Lloyd Bridges emits pheromones, re-designing Rick Baker, Nerf party, Stephen Chow, Jodie Foster, Fred Ward, wedding debauchery, The Wolfman re-shoots, casting Green Lantern, lead-painted toys, Where to go for Kato?, The 'Hoff was really cool?, self-moderation, Bruno, Michele Gondrey, Mel Gibson shoves his hand in The Beaver, experimenting with Jarts, Todd Browning's Dracula, more of The Green Hornet, you can't trust the Government, MacGruber!, I wish I were an Oscar Mayer weiner, deep-seated human fears, The Ellen Page Show, McCarthyism vs. conspiracies, The Palace Theater, poking each other with sticks, I Love You Beth Cooper, Ryan Reynolds, goopy seventies films, serious Baywatch, belly massages, marriages falling apart, the silent Phantom of the Opera, Sacha Baron Cohen, I want a giant metallic spider, Ving Rames IS Aqua-Man, Where are they going for Hooker?, Little Man Tate, remaking The Blob, The Weinermobile is awesome, Nick Fury, Remo Williams: The Adventure Ends?, commie dogs or mutant dogs, Midnight Star, Wild Wild West, gasoline-soaked pods and sobbing into your bacon sandwich. - So join us for some Pod People - the REAL San Francisco treat!  

Becks catches up with Maz from Little Man Tate to find out how the group have bounced back after being dropped by their record label, as well as talking to Pete from local group The Red Bullets about playing at MK's Togfest Festival this weekend (Sat 28th June).

From Little Man Tate to Out of Sight, screenwriter Scott Frank (Get Shorty, Minority Report) has written scripts about emotional honesty in intense situations.  His first film as director, The Lookout, continues in that vein.
