A deep dive into one of the most overlooked -- and fascinating -- sides of the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature winner: Bob Dylan, the filmmaker. While his music and lyrics have been studied endlessly, his work behind (and in front of) the camera remains largely unexplored. No other book has taken this angle, and with Dylan's legend still growing, the audience is more than ready for a bold new take. Bob Dylan as Filmmaker: No Time to Think (McNidder and Grace, 2026), the first book of its kind, opens up exciting new ways to think about the artistry of Bob Dylan. It offers a captivating exploration into movies that, according to Michael, showcase Bob Dylan not just as a subject, but as the primary author. These include Eat the Document--a short, experimental television film shot in 1966 and released in 1972; the sprawling, genre-blurring epic Renaldo and Clara (1978), both directed by Dylan himself; and the darkly surreal Masked and Anonymous (2003), directed by Larry Charles but co-written by and starring Dylan. Bob Dylan as Filmmaker explores what these movies reveal about "how it feels" to be Bob Dylan during three defining eras of his career: the revolutionary 1960s, the introspective 1970s, and the enigmatic early 2000s. Just as crucially, they illuminate Dylan's remarkable instinct for using film not merely as a medium, but as a deeply personal mode of expression. The book also provides an essential survey of Dylan's most recent movie projects, including those by other directors, in which Dylan's influence is less overt but no less powerful. Here, Michael argues that Dylan operates as a kind of "invisible co-author" in Martin Scorsese's Rolling Thunder Revue (2019), where Dylan appears as a slippery, self-mythologizing interviewee; Alma Har'el's haunting Shadow Kingdom (2021), a stylized livestream performance; and James Mangold's A Complete Unknown (2024), the Timothée Chalamet-led biopic shaped in part by Dylan's behind-the-scenes "script approval." Michael Glover Smith is a Chicago-based filmmaker, author and teacher. Michael's most recent movie, Hekla, starring Elizabeth Stam, will have it's festival premiere in early 2026. Michael is also the director of four award-winning feature films, the most recent of which, Relative, stars Wendy Robie (Twin Peaks) and is distributed by Music Box Films. His previous book, Flickering Empire: How Chicago Invented the U.S. Film Industry (co-written with Adam Selzer), was published by Columbia University Press to acclaim in 2015. He has seen Bob Dylan 100 times in concert. Michael on Twitter and Bluesky. Bradley Morgan is a media arts professional in Chicago and author of U2's The Joshua Tree: Planting Roots in Mythic America (Backbeat Books, 2021), Frank Zappa's America (LSU Press, 2025), and U2: Until the End of the World (Gemini Books, 2025).

Ray Romano built one of the biggest sitcoms of the 1990s, made hundreds of millions of dollars, and still somehow feels underrated. In this episode, we break down Ray Romano's stand-up roots, his rise to Everybody Loves Raymond, and why his legacy deserves more respect.In this episode of Why Are You Laughing?, we go back to Ray Romano's early struggles in stand-up comedy, when he was grinding it out in clubs long before network fame. We talk about how David Letterman played a major role in helping Everybody Loves Raymond get on the air, and how Romano's low-key delivery and relatable writing style separated him from flashier comedians of his era.We also dig into the parts of his career that don't get talked about enough. From the criminally underrated Men of a Certain Age, to working with Martin Scorsese on Vinyl and The Irishman, to his more recent independent film Somewhere in Queens, Romano's post-sitcom work shows range and depth that often gets overlooked.Was he overshadowed by shows like Seinfeld and Friends? Has his stand-up been underappreciated? And why does a comic this successful still feel like a “quiet legend” in comedy history?This is a full career deep dive into Ray Romano's stand-up, sitcom fame, and underrated legacy.0:00 Intro3:02 Family background7:25 Stand-Up comedy roots17:45 Newsradio firing24:01 David Letterman influence27:36 Everybody Loves Raymond36:19 Other work41:15 Martin Scorsese45:52 Netflix special50:34 Somewhere in Queens58:26 Norm MacdonaldFOR ALL THINGS BLIND MIKEhttp://blindmike.netFOR ALL THINGS CRAIGGERShttp://www.verygoodshow.orgFOR ALL THINGS HACKRIDEhttp://hackridethedemon.comFOR ALL THINGS DJ ELECTRA FRYhttp://djelectrafry.com
Nineteen Seventy-Six. America's bicentennial was a great year for cinema, with films like A Star is Born, King Kong, All the President's Men, Carrie, and The Omen heating up the box office, and instant classics Rocky and Network earning the most accolades. After a six-decade career in the director's chair, Alfred Hitchcock released his last film, Family Plot, around the same time that an up-and-coming young director by the name of Martin Scorsese released his breakout hit, the fifth film of his budding career. Centered on a disillusioned New York cabbie played by Robert De Niro, this rain-and-neon-soaked meditation on summer in the city proved to be a defining outing by both actor and director. With a cast including Cybill Shephard, Albert Brooks, Peter Boyle, Harvey Keitel, and a very young Jodie Foster, the film racked up awards, including the Palme d'Or at Cannes and four nominations at the Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor for De Niro, and Best Supporting Actress for Foster. Despite controversies over its content, the film was hailed as a hit. Now, fifty years later, we're catching a ride with Taxi Driver and talking to you about it!

This week on Movie Mistrial, we dive into the wild excess, dizzying ambition, and unrestrained debauchery of Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street.The Wolf of Wall Street is a high-octane blast of filmmaking, powered by Leonardo DiCaprio's ferocious performance and Scorsese's razor-sharp direction. Its electric energy, dark humor, and satirical bite make it an unforgettable ride through the corrupt heart of American capitalism, exposing greed with both style and swagger.While undeniably entertaining, the film's relentless excess and provocative tone have sparked debate. Some argue it glamorizes the very behavior it critiques, and its lengthy runtime can feel indulgent—mirroring the characters' own over-the-top lifestyles.Join us as we break down the madness and morality of The Wolf of Wall Street. Is it a brilliant satire with something to say—or an exercise in cinematic hedonism that gets lost in the party?Connect with us and share your thoughts:Twitter: http://tiny.cc/MistrialTwitter

Aussi loin qu'il se souvienne, John Gotti a toujours voulu être un gangster. L'introduction de ce personnage important dans l'Histoire de la mafia aux Etats-Unis est une référence volontaire à la réplique de Ray Liotta dans le film de Martin Scorsese « Les Affranchis ». Car l'histoire de John Gotti et de la famille Gambino a tous les codes d'un bon film de gangster. Quoi de plus logique, puisque souvent, les personnages hauts en couleur qui nous sont présentés au cinéma et à la télévision sont directement inspirés de véritables membres ou de dirigeants de la mafia. Au sein d'une famille, lorsqu'il s'agit de gérer les affaires, on n'hésite pas à se tirer dans les pattes pour arriver premier à cette ascension vers le pouvoir...Crimes • Histoires Vraies est une production Minuit.

Today on another encore episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast we are talking to Christopher Lewis, son of comedian, writer, director & auteur Jerry Lewis. Ostensibly, we spoke to Christopher to talk about the publication of the book he shepherded from his father's archive, Jerry Lewis On Being a Person. But what we got was quite a bit more as we had hoped. Christopher sat down with us for quite some time to talk about his father and what it was like being the son of "The King of Comedy" which we learned, became his monicker after the Martin Scorsese film was released. We also learned about – and you knew this was coming, how could it not? – the unreleased film, The Day The Clown Cried. Perhaps the most talked about film no one has ever seen, heard from Christopher what is holding up its release to this day & why he thought it was never released. We also dug into some fantastic things like the films his dad made for himself and not a studio with stars of the day which was totally fascinating. We spoke about his time in Vegas as part of the MDA Telethon, the Jerry Lewis donation to the Library of Congress, the forgotten TV show of the 70s Pink Lady and Jeff (trust me, it's a corker) and which comedian made him laugh. And without further adieu, we bring you Christopher Lewis about "Le Roi du Crazy," his dad, Jerry Lewis.

We've been busy preparing a slate of episodes to pay tribute to some of the giants of New Hollywood who have recently left us. First on the “in memoriam” docket is no less than Robert Redford. Arguably the first true multi-hyphenate, with his directorial debut Ordinary People, Redford established an impressively new take on the “issues film”. Elena and Sam enjoy digging in and trying to untangle its thorny reputation as an Oscar spoiler for Raging Bull and Martin Scorsese. Topics include: the 92nd st Y, the origins of the Brat Pack, and what Mary Tyler Moore is really like.
On the latest episode of A Life In Movies, the movie interview podcast by All The Right Movies, we're talking to legendary actor James Woods.With a career spanning five decades, James has built a reputation as one of cinema's most compelling performers. An actor drawn to morally complex characters and unafraid to inhabit the darkest corners of human nature. A two-time Academy Award nominee with multiple Emmy wins to his name, his filmography reads like a masterclass in intensity.Speaking to us from Los Angeles, James takes us through the key moments that shaped his remarkable career. From his early days studying Political Science at MIT before the pull of acting proved too strong, to his film debut working with the legendary Elia Kazan. We dive deep into five landmark films: David Cronenberg's prophetic body-horror Videodrome, Sergio Leone's epic Once Upon a Time in America opposite Robert De Niro, Oliver Stone's raw and urgent Salvador (which earned him his first Oscar nomination), the action-comedy The Hard Way with Michael J. Fox, and Martin Scorsese's Casino where he brought the slippery Lester Diamond to unforgettable life.James also shares insights into his approach to those morally ambiguous characters that have become his trademark, his acclaimed television work, the compelling story behind his Executive Producer credit on Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer and his most recent artistic endeavour in music. A fascinating conversation with one of American cinema's most distinctive talents.Connect with ATRM: To join our fantastic community of film fans, support what we do, access our archive, listen to exclusive episodes, and a whole lot more, become an ATRM patron:Join the ATRM Community We're available on any podcast platform:Listen on Apple PodcastsListen on SpotifyYouTube: Subscribe to our channelWe're across all major social channels too:Twitter: @ATRightMoviesInstagram: @allthe_rightmovies Facebook: Join our movie groupBluesky: @alltherightmovies.comTikTok: @alltherightmoviesWebsite: alltherightmovies.com

Starring Leonardo DiCaprio (The Departed, Inception) in one of his most unhinged and charismatic performances, the film chronicles Belfort's meteoric ascent from ambitious penny-stock hustler to obscenely wealthy Wall Street kingpin — and the excess, corruption, and self-destruction that followed.

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!
