Jay GlennieTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know author Jay Glennie. Jay is the author of MANY, MANY large format books covering the making of certain films. In this episode, Jay and I chat about how he came to this very specific niche writing. Jay has written several books on the behind the scenes and making of some of the greatest films in history. We begin with his goal to interview British Oscar winners, and what he intended to do with those interviews and notes. Then we jump into how he turned his passion into a real job. Jay has written books on Raging Bull, The Deer Hunter, Trainspotting, as others. His newest book is called "The Making of Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. It is an in depth look into what it took to bring Tarantino's vision to fruition. Jay flew all over the world, interviewing the actors, producers, costumers, set designers, and just about everyone who worked on the film. He brings to life the intensity and tirelessness that was the journey to get this film made. This 170,000+ word tome dives deep; with interviews and stories from just about everyone involved and brings to life some of the most amazing photographs, props, and set pieces of this cinematic masterpiece. Jay shares stories of his road to get some of these interviews, and how he even came into contact with some of the greatest actors, producers, and directors of the last century. We cover his journey of making his first couple of books and carry Jay's journey right on through to his NEXT two books and are slated to be released this year and the next. Great tales of meeting and getting to know some of the greats; Like Robert De Niro, Martin Scorsese, Mick Jagger, Quentin Tarantino, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Spencer Garrett, and so many more.

Coming out in one of the greatest movie years of all time, the only collaboration between Martin Scorsese and Nic Cage failed at the box office. Ryan Estrada joins Derick to discuss the film and why, among both star and director, it remains one of their most underseen, but best films, and how it may have sneakily been an adaptation of one of Dickens' most famous works.For more info, head to underratedmoviepodcast.comPatreon: https://patreon.com/UnderratedMoviePodcastInstagram: https://instagram.com/underratedmoviepodcastTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@underratedmoviepodcastYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAbpTHWyBle7yKJv4-gR_g

Happy 2026, Vintage Sand fans! Thank you for taking time away from looking for real estate opportunities in Greenland to join us for Episodes 65 and 66, our first of 2026. Herein, Team Vintage Sand returns one last time to the source of some of our most popular episodes: Danny Peary's hard-to-find 1993 classic "Alternate Oscars". In the past, we have used Peary's model to approach the Best Picture Academy Awards from every decade going back to the 1930's. Collect them all! For this episode, we wrap up this series with the most recent complete decade, the 2010's. First, a caveat: we began this podcast eight years ago, in the spring of 2018, which means that we have already discussed many of today's films in a number of different contexts already. We did our Best of the Teens in early 2020, and recently did our Top 10 of the Century so far, wherein many of the films we're talking about today are contained. Add in that we did episodes on the best of 2018 and 2019, respectively, in those years, and you get the sense that we have already covered this ground several times. But like all good film fans, we're completists, so we conclude this series of episodes with these two, which will focus on 2010 to 2014 and 2015 to 2019 respectively. Mercifully, perhaps, these episodes are shorter than most others we've done, simply because, as mentioned, this is terrain we have already covered several times. The teens were clearly a transitional time for film, especially in Hollywood. The foreign market came to dominate, as did the teen market, which led to a kind of lowest common denominator for American film in these years. Throw in the uncertainties created by the rise of streaming and the changes in where and how people watch film, and you have…well, it's still a little too early to tell what the 2010's will look like to film historians, if there are indeed any film historians left. That being said, it's clear that the decade featured some of the greatest films ever made, ones that will stand the test of time and will continue to be watched long into the future. In many ways, the Mexican New Wavers dominated the decade, winning half of the Best Director Oscars for the whole decade: Del Toro for "Shape of Water", Cuarón for "Gravity" and "Roma", and Iñárritu for "Birdman" and "The Revenant". And of course, the stunning triumph of "Parasite" ended a decade in film that many were ready to write off (and got rid of the bad taste left behind by "Green Book" the previous year). It was also a decade that saw the arrival of some wildly innovative and talented filmmakers, among them Chloe Zhao, Ryan Coogler, Ava Duvernay, Jordan Peele, Greta Gerwig, Steve McQueen, and Damien Chazelle, plus amazing directors who transcended often marginalized genres like Ari Aster, Alex Garland, Robert Eggers and Denis Villeneuve. We also saw some great works from directors who came of age in the 90's and early 00's like David Fincher, the Coens, Spike Lee, Christopher Nolan, Todd Haynes and the Andersons, both Wes and PTA divisions. And for the icing on the cake, we got some brilliant work from the old guard Hollywood New Wavers like Martin Scorsese (who just seemed to pick up steam as the decade went on), Steven Spielberg, (at least with" Lincoln"), Terrence Malick and, most surprisingly, Paul Schrader. So make yourselves comfortable, have yourselves one of those lovely pastries from Mendl's, and join us for our final foray into the world of Best Picture Alternate Oscars!

This week on the Video Store Podcast I am recommending four sequels that understood what they were doing. Not every follow up needs to top the original. Sometimes the smarter move is to change perspective, lean into experience, or admit that the audience already knows the rules. These films take different approaches, but all of them show intent rather than obligation.Bride of Frankenstein (1935)James Whale treats the sequel as a chance to reshape the story rather than extend it. The film is openly stylized, emotionally direct, and comfortable mixing humor with unease. Elsa Lanchester appearing as both Mary Shelley and the Bride signals how self aware the film is from the start. At just over an hour it wastes nothing, and every choice feels deliberate. Universal horror rarely let directors put this much personality on screen, which makes it stand out even now.Psycho II (1983)Instead of chasing shock, this film focuses on Norman Bates after years of confinement. Anthony Perkins plays him with restraint and patience, letting the tension come from uncertainty rather than spectacle. The movie also knows the audience brings baggage with them, and it uses that knowledge carefully. Released at a time when many horror sequels went broader, this one went inward.The Color of Money (1986)Paul Newman returns to Fast Eddie Felson as someone shaped by time and compromise. Martin Scorsese treats The Hustler as history, not a template to be copied. The film is about pride, mentorship, and what it means to keep competing when winning is no longer simple. Newman earned his Oscar here, and it feels tied to the character's accumulated weight rather than a single performance beat.Gremlins 2 The New Batch (1990)Joe Dante uses the sequel to tear the whole idea apart. The film is packed with effects, jokes, and commentary, and it never pauses to justify itself. It openly mocks sequels, corporate culture, and even the audience's expectations. The commitment is total, and that confidence is why it works.These four films do not share a tone, a genre, or a strategy. What they share is clarity. Each one knows why it exists and what it wants to explore next. That is what makes them worth renting again, not as curiosities, but as examples of sequels that made real successful choices.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Are you ready to hear opinions that will make you scream? Can you believe some of the things that our cast this week believes? Are you the kind of person who is OK with pineapple on a pizza? Get ready for some wild points of view from Howard Casner, Dave Anderson and The Vern, because if you love Stanley Kubrick, Martin Scorsese, John Carpenter and Ridley Scott, these guys have opinions that may outrage you.
In “The Testament of Ann Lee,” a new film directed by Mona Fastvold, Amanda Seyfried plays the founder and leader of the Shaker movement—a woman believed by her followers to be the second coming of Christ. Fastvold uses song and dance to convey the fervor that Mother Ann shares with her acolytes. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss how such depictions of religious devotion might land with modern viewers. They trace this theme from Martin Scorsese's docuseries “The Saints” to “Lux,” a recent album in which Rosalía mines the divine for musical inspiration. These stories, many of them centuries old, might seem out of step with modern concerns. But we're still borrowing their iconography—and anointing saints of our own—today. “The bracing and sort of terrifying thing about them is precisely that they are human beings,” Cunningham says. “What they say to us is, ‘If you had the juice, you could do it, too.' ” Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Marty Supreme” (2025)“The Testament of Ann Lee” (2025)“Martin Scorsese Presents: The Saints” (2024—)Rosalia's “Lux”“Conclave” (2024)Michelangelo's “The Temptation of Saint Anthony”“The Flowers of Saint Francis” (1950)Madonna's “Like a Prayer”“The bizarre rise of ‘convent dressing,' ” by Eleanor Dye (The Daily Mail)“What Kind of New World Is Being Born?,” by Vinson Cunningham (The New Yorker)“Patricia Lockwood Goes Viral,” by Alexandra Schwartz (The New Yorker)New episodes drop every Thursday.

January kicks off with a defining entry in cinema history: Taxi DriverIn Episode 363 of Jay Movie Talk. I begin the Loners, Drifters, & Outsiders series by revisiting Martin Scorsese's haunting character study of isolation, alienation, and violence in post-Vietnam America. Fifty years later, Taxi Driver remains as unsettling, provocative, and conversation-worthy as ever.This episode dives deep into Travis Bickle as a character, the dangers of romanticizing loneliness, and how the film places us inside a fractured mindset rather than asking us to admire it. I discuss Scorsese's raw direction, Robert De Niro's career-defining performance, and why the film's ending still sparks debate decades later.I also explore how Taxi Driver has influenced modern cinema, why this archetype keeps resurfacing, and whether the film feels even more relevant today than it did in the 1970s .This isn't an easy watch, but it's an essential one. And it sets the tone for everything coming this month.
In this show, we are extending our ongoing Mike Nichols Marathon as our journey through his filmography takes us deeper into the 1990's where we finally take on the 1994 Wolf. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about this movie's positioning among other classical horror archetypes explored by other filmmakers (such as Dracula directed by Francis Ford Coppola, Kenneth Branagh's Frankenstein, or Martin Scorsese's Cape Fear), whether this big budget production could be considered a comeback for the aging Nichols and how it reunited him with Elaine May. We also discuss the many readings one could apply to this film, ranging from commenting on the AIDS epidemic and corporate politics to discussions about masculinity and the director's own life trajectory, and we also explore the friction between the film's ambition and its own ability to deliver on character and theme development. Finally, we chuckle at Jack Nicholson's sharpened senses and find out that Jakub might not be able to pronounce the title of the movie correctly at all.

This week, the boys drink some whiskey and head to 1960 to discuss the less famous slasher movie of the year, “Peeping Tom”! Directed by Michael Powell, this film was a major inspiration for Martin Scorsese and a terror to the people of England, leading to its removal from theaters after only 5 days. Unlike “Psycho”, it was subsequently banned from many other countries… yet today, this movie feels like a tone poem of modern culture.

Kicking off 2026 with an episode about Martin Scorsese's attempt at a big MGM-style movie: a dark post-war musical about a married pair of jazz performers from the team that wrote Cabaret and starring Liza Minnelli. Sounds like a dream come true for film lovers, right? The result is a flawed film that we ended up liking anyway. Starring Robert De Niro and Liza Minnelli. Written by Earl Mac Rauch and Mardik Martin. Directed by Martin Scorsese. Music by Josh Kander and Fred Ebb.

Today we take a look at Bringing out the Dead! A movie that teamed up Martin Scorsese with Paul Schrader and just like Taxi Driver, they take us to the urban jungle of New York. Nicholas Cage stars alongside some of the best actors of 1999 (John Goodman, Patricia Arquette, Ving Rhames) to talk about Ambulance drivers over 3 days.
Michael Imperioli is best known for his Emmy-winning portrayal of Christopher Moltisanti on "The Sopranos," a role that made him one of the most recognizable faces of prestige television. Some of his other credits include "Goodfellas," "Jungle Fever," "Summer of Sam" (which he also co-wrote), "The White Lotus," and his latest, "Song Sung Blue," the real-life story behind Neil Diamond tribute performers, where he plays Mark Shrilla, opposite Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson. On this episode he talks about the technical mountain he had to climb before he allowed himself to take on that role. Then he takes us back to his early days and two giant, back-to-back acting disappointments that somehow didn't break his drive; talks about how welcoming encouragement from directors like Martin Scorsese helped bring out the best in him; explains what's special about the New York acting community; and much more. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft. Follow Back To One on Instagram
Thousands of Californians who lost their homes in January's devastating wildfires are still waiting to rebuild, with insurance gaps, infrastructure delays, and red tape all having slowed the process. And for many homeowners, a new deadline is approaching as mortgage forbearance periods expire, raising the prospect of making payments on homes that no longer exist. Rachel Jonas and Rob Fagnani, who lost their Pacific Palisades home in the fire, join the Rundown to explain why they are now advocating for disaster mortgage relief while they work toward rebuilding. Martin Scorsese presents The Saints on FOX Nation, a groundbreaking series that reimagines the lives of the saints through a contemporary lens, aiming to connect with today's audiences in a fresh and culturally relevant way. FOX News contributor and theologian Jonathan Morris joins the Rundown to discuss the journey between doubt and devotion explored in The Saints. He reflects on the challenges and insights of telling their stories, while also addressing the inclusion of the first "millennial saint," common misconceptions, and the overarching themes woven throughout the series.

【聊了什么】 一座占地仅三分之一街区的小花园,为何能让纽约的政客们冲突、登上纽约时报、还惊动马丁·斯科塞斯和罗伯特·德尼罗等名流亲自站台? 2025年11月,刚刚当选纽约市长的马姆达尼还没上任,即将离任的Eric Adams就抢先签署行政令,将伊丽莎白街花园永久划为公园用地——这被外界解读为一枚"政治毒丸"。这座花园的命运,折射出纽约乃至美国城市治理中的一个核心的矛盾:我们到底应该建更多房子,还是保护现有社区?谁有权决定一个街区的未来? 本期节目,我们邀请到纽约城市规划师罗雨翔老师,从一座社区花园的十年争议出发,聊聊纽约政治中那些看不见的博弈。罗雨翔此前也做过两期纽约相关的节目《纽约的房价到底为什么这么高》和《纽约地铁为什么这么破》,两期播客都发布在我们的友台《选修课》上,也欢迎大家前去收听,并关注这档播客。如果你对这期节目内容感兴趣,欢迎购买罗雨翔的新书《创造大都会——纽约空间与制度观察》,国内各大平台均有销售,海外用户请使用此链接购买。 【支持我们】 如果喜欢这期节目并希望支持我们将节目继续做下去: 也欢迎加入我们的会员计划: https://theamericanroulette.com/paid-membership/ 会员可以收到每周2-5封newsletter,可以加入会员社群,参加会员活动,并享受更多福利。 合作投稿邮箱:american.roulette.pod@gmail.com 【时间轴】 03:45 马姆达尼当选与Eric Adams的"政治毒丸" 05:40 伊丽莎白街花园的前世今生 09:40 社区的阶层分化:SOHO富人区vs唐人街低收入社区 12:57 花园之争背后的市议会选战 16:01 公园异化法:为什么正式公园用地几乎无法改变 21:17 Adams给马姆达尼的台阶? 23:41 社区规划与NIMBY现象 30:24 政府的复杂角色:豪华公寓与保障房的平衡术 35:04 Eric Adams的另一面:区划法改革与垃圾革命 42:31 纽约的小政府传统 51:14 Robert Moses vs Jane Jacobs 54:25 为Robert Moses翻案?丰裕议程与当代回响 【我们是谁】 美轮美换是一档深入探讨当今美国政治的中文播客。 我们的主播和嘉宾: 小华:媒体人 罗雨翔:美国注册城市规划师,哈佛大学与伦敦政治经济学院建筑与经济双硕士。现居纽约,参与以及主持北美20余地区的地产开发、区域经济政策与公共领域投资项目。 【 What We Talked About】 How can a tiny garden—barely a third of a city block—spark political battles in New York, make headlines in the New York Times, and rally celebrities like Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro to its defense? In November 2025, just days after Zohran Mamdani won the New York City mayoral race but before he could take office, outgoing Mayor Eric Adams signed an executive order permanently designating Elizabeth Street Garden as parkland—a move widely seen as a "political poison pill." The fate of this garden reflects a core tension in urban governance, not just in New York but across America: Should we build more housing, or protect existing communities? And who gets to decide the future of a neighborhood? In this episode, we're joined by Yuxiang Luo, an urban planner based in New York, to explore ten years of controversy surrounding a single community garden—and the invisible power struggles that shape New York City politics. Yuxiang has previously appeared on two episodes about New York: "Why Is Housing in New York So Expensive?" and "Why Is the New York Subway So Run-Down?", both available on our sister podcast Mo Electives (选修课).

Thousands of Californians who lost their homes in January's devastating wildfires are still waiting to rebuild, with insurance gaps, infrastructure delays, and red tape all having slowed the process. And for many homeowners, a new deadline is approaching as mortgage forbearance periods expire, raising the prospect of making payments on homes that no longer exist. Rachel Jonas and Rob Fagnani, who lost their Pacific Palisades home in the fire, join the Rundown to explain why they are now advocating for disaster mortgage relief while they work toward rebuilding. Martin Scorsese presents The Saints on FOX Nation, a groundbreaking series that reimagines the lives of the saints through a contemporary lens, aiming to connect with today's audiences in a fresh and culturally relevant way. FOX News contributor and theologian Jonathan Morris joins the Rundown to discuss the journey between doubt and devotion explored in The Saints. He reflects on the challenges and insights of telling their stories, while also addressing the inclusion of the first "millennial saint," common misconceptions, and the overarching themes woven throughout the series.

Over the course of our conversation, which (expectedly) is just as sprawling and widespread as the movie itself, you will hear us talk about the ways in which Casino capitalizes on the success of Goodfellas, how it differs from it in many ways and how it informs one of the most persistent thematic angles present in Martin Scorsese's filmmaking career. We also talk about Las Vegas as a character, Robert De Niro's glitzy wardrobe, that opening explosion shot, Joe Pesci owning the frame and much, much more!Tune in and enjoy!Hosts: Jakub Flasz & Randy BurrowsFeaturing: Tony LarderTHIS PODCAST IS AVAILABLE IN FULL FOR FREE ON OUR PATREON!!!

In this episode, I sit down with actor Gary Pastore, a longtime working actor best known for his unforgettable role in A Bronx Tale. We talk about how one of the film's most iconic lines came together, growing up Italian in New York, and the real-life path of a working actor. Gary shares stories from Goodfellas, working with Martin Scorsese, playing real-life mob figures like Albert Anastasia, and the importance of networking the right way in Hollywood. We also discuss longevity in the business, reputation, and why being a good person off-camera matters just as much as talent.

A rare sighting of The Brothers Wilson means it's time for another Hey, an Actor! And the podcast finally returns to a true Hollywood heavyweight as it scratches the surface of the illustrious career of the legendary Robert De Niro. In a triple-helping of collaborations with his directing soulmate Martin Scorsese, Ian and Pandy examine the poorly received King of Comedy, the career milestone of Taxi Driver, and the gangster paradise represented by Goodfellas, as chosen by the listeners. Along the way, discussion veers between dream sequence endings, Scorsese nepotism, Jim Bowen, and Pandy profiling a little-known pop culture figure known as The Joker. Also, which of the three featured films receives Pandy's special ire, Halloween-style?

How do you rebuild your life when everyone thinks they already know your story? How do you stay sharp and influential when every move you make is judged and dissected? In this episode of Habits & Hustle, I sit down with Jordan Belfort, the real-life inspiration behind Martin Scorsese's acclaimed film The Wolf of Wall Street based on his bestselling autobiography. We get into the mindset behind high-stakes decisions, the psychology of influence, and how he built a system that turns underdogs into top performers. Jordan talks about rebuilding credibility, the habits that keep him steady now, and what extreme pressure taught him about discipline. He breaks down what persuasive leaders actually do differently and why charisma alone never gets you there. If you want a sharper understanding of communication, conviction, and reinvention, this one will land. Jordan Belfort is an entrepreneur, bestselling author, global sales trainer, and creator of the Straight Line System. After rising fast, falling hard, and rebuilding his life from the ground up, he has become one of the most recognizable thinkers in sales psychology, persuasion, and personal reinvention today. What We Discuss: (00:28) Why influence is something you can actually learn (05:12) The mindset Jordan used to handle high-stakes decisions (13:40) How the Straight Line System brings clarity to any conversation (18:55) What rebuilding credibility really looked like after his public fall (26:14) The habits that keep him steady and focused now (34:02) What extreme pressure taught him about discipline (41:33) The mechanics of persuasion and why charisma alone never works (55:10) What separates average closers from top performers (01:12:20) How he coaches leaders to communicate under pressure (01:28:46) The psychology behind reinvention and starting fresh Thank you to our sponsors: Therasage: Head over to therasage.com and use code Be Bold for 15% off Air Doctor: Go to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code HUSTLE40 for up to $300 off and a 3-year warranty on air purifiers.Magic Mind: Head over to www.magicmind.com/jen and use code Jen at checkout.Momentous: Shop this link and use code Jen for 20% off Manna Vitality: Visit mannavitality.com and use code JENNIFER20 for 20% off your order Prolon: Get 30% off sitewide plus a $40 bonus gift when you subscribe to their 5-Day Program!

This week everyone saw everything, so we start off with Park Chan-Wook's latest, the darkly comic thriller NO OTHER CHOICE (2:51), in which a 25-year veteran of a paper company is laid off and after a series of poor interviews, can't find another job. So he does the next logical thing: He decides to murder everyone in his field who may be more qualified than he is. Yikes! We all had our problems with this (it ain't THE HANDMAIDEN), but we did find things to like. But it seems we're outliers; NO OTHER CHOICE is getting critical raves but we all found it lukewarm for one reason or another. We follw up with Bradley Cooper's latest directorial effort, IS THIS THING ON? (28:44) Alex (Will Arnett, who's dynamite and also co-wrote the script) starts doing stand-up while sorting through the ditritus of his marriage. Tess (Laura Dern, who's dynamite) returns to her first (professional) love, and...things happen! (Sorry. It's 3 a.m.) Two of us really enjoyed this, and one of us did not. Over on Patreon, we talk about the 1985 Martin Scorsese comedy AFTER HOURS.

It's what it is. The 'AnotherLook' duo finally discusses a Martin Scorsese movie. But which one? Hugo? The Aviator? Bringing Out the Dead? How about a 3.5 hour netflix-produced legacy mob epic?

Dana and Tom with Jen Han and Sarah Callen (Hosts of Movies and Us podcast) discuss Raging Bull (1980) for its 45th anniversary: directed by Martin Scorsese, written by Paul Schrader and Mardik Martin, cinematography by Michael Chapman, editing by Thelma Schoonmaker, music by Jim Henrikson, starring Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, Cathy Moriarty, and Frank Vincent.Plot Summary: Raging Bull is a biographical drama about boxer Jake LaMotta, played by Robert De Niro. The film follows Jake's rise in the ring during the 1940s and 1950s, showing his intense drive to win and his struggle to control his anger. His brother and manager, Joey LaMotta, played by Joe Pesci, tries to keep Jake focused, but their relationship becomes strained as Jake's temper grows.Outside the ring, Jake's jealousy and insecurity hurt the people closest to him, especially his wife Vickie, played by Cathy Moriarty. As Jake's behavior pushes others away, he begins to lose everything he worked for. The movie shows how his personal battles become just as destructive as the fights in the boxing ring, leaving him to face the consequences of his actions.Guests:Jen Han and Sarah CallenHosts of Movies and Us podcast@moviesanduspod on IG, TikTok, YouTubeOn MediumPreviously on The Maltese FalconChapters:00:00 Introduction, Cast, and Background for Raging Bull03:13 Welcome Back, Jen and Sarah04:40 Why Are We Discussing Raging Bull?05:59 Why Is Raging Bull A Great Movie?

At 82, she is busier than ever; A Vogue cover star, one of TV's best-loved documentary makers and the bestselling author of two memoirs, This Much Is True and Oh Miriam! Can you tell how excited I was?! I met Miriam in Glasgow ahead of her live show to talk about everything from having her womb out in her mid-30s (she only went to the dr for a sore nose!), wearing trainers to Buckingham palace (before that was a thing) and why she's really really bored of being labelled “just a lesbian”. We also discussed never wanting children, her 54 year love match and the power of living a life with no secrets. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on buymeacoffee.com. • 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 exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Martin Scorsese gets the gang back together for another mafia classic CASINO, which we argue represents the back end of the primes for Robert Deniro, Joe Pesci, and Sharon Stone. A great movie that unfairly gets compared to his Mona Lisa, Goodfellas, but deserves its own place in movie history.

Following the Beatles' final concert tour, George Harrison travelled to India in 1967 to learn sitar under the renowned musician Ravi Shankar.

Hollywood:1975. Martin Scorsese sits in his apartment, enraged. He wants to literally kill the man who is ruining his to-be-released film, Taxi Driver. Scorsese's friends, filmmakers Stephen Spielberg, Brian De Palma, John Milius, and Paul Schraeder rush to Scorsese's side to talk him out of committing murder, but when they arrive, their friend Marty acts less like himself and more like his Travis Bickle character from the film he's trying to save. This is the story of that night. Martin Scorsese is certainly one of the greatest filmmakers of all time. Jake wants to know: who is your favorite filmmaker?

We know Malala as the youngest Nobel Prize laureate, the girl who survived a Taliban bullet at 15 for advocating for girls' education in Pakistan. Now in a new book, she's reintroducing herself to the world. It's called Finding My Way, and in it she writes about the messy, funny, and flawed experiences that come with age, while carrying both the honor and the weight of being an activist for women's rights. TV critic David Bianculli reviews a new documentary series about Martin Scorsese. And Ken Burns talks about his new PBS documentary on the Revolutionary War. It includes the perspectives of women, Native Americans, and enslaved and free Black people–the people initially excluded from the declaration “all men are created equal.” Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
