Send us a textOn our 107th podcast, we here at the Triple FFF thought we'd try to once again attempt relevance and discuss a current big release, this time Wes Anderson's 2025 father-daughter high stakes business and espionage caper The Phoenician Scheme starring Benicio Del Toro, Mia Threapleton, Michael Cera, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Riz Ahmed, Scarlet Johansson, Mathieu Amalric, Jeffrey Wright, Rupert Friend and Benedict Cumberbatch. As well as Mr. Anderson's troupe of good-natured bit players and walk ons which includes Bill Murray, F. Murray Abraham, Wilem Dafoe and now Charlotte Gainsbourg. I'm your host Gino Caputi and my guests this week are the always dependable show regulars Joe Field, David Johnson DMD and Gordon Alex RobertsonThe Phoenician Scheme's plot unfolds as follows: After surviving yet another assassination attempt, this time with a glimpse of the afterlife, wealthy arms dealer and industrialist Anatole Zsa-Zsa Korda realizes his days are numbered and possibly without purpose. Hoping to reconnect with his estranged daughter Liesl—now on the verge of taking her final vows as a Catholic nun—he names her the sole heir to his estate. In exchange for long-withheld truths about her mother's murder, Korda convinces Liesl to accompany him on a whirlwind journey to secure funding from several colorfully shady investors for his grand, multi-layered Phoenician Scheme—plans for which are ingeniously stored in a series of shoeboxes.Where does this film rank within Wes Anderson's collection of stories about larger-than-life, big talking fathers of dubious emotional and financial sincerity?

Ein Regisseur erhält nicht oft die Gelegenheit, einen alten Low-Budget-Film Jahre später noch einmal inszenieren zu können. Michael Mann durfte SHOWDOWN IN L.A. unter dem Titel HEAT neu drehen – und Kiyoshi Kurosawa konnte seinen Thriller SERPENT'S PATH aus dem Jahr 1998 im Jahr 2024 noch einmal angehen. Die Handlung wurde nach Frankreich verlegt, die Hauptrollen sind mit Ko Shibasaki und Damien Bonnard japanisch und französisch besetzt. Wir hatten den 1998er Film nicht gesehen und so hat uns der harte Thriller mit seinen unerwarteten Twists voll erwischt.Nach der Ermordung seiner 8-jährigen Tochter sinnt der Vater auf Rache, unterstützt von einer Psychotherapeutin. Sie entführen und foltern die Verdächtigen – aber haben sie überhaupt die Richtigen? Und was treibt die eiskalte Psychotherapeutin an? Die grausamen Details des Mordes werden zwar nicht gezeigt, die Beschreibung aber so oft wiederholt, bis auch das Publikum Teil der Folter wird. Erst als es schon längst kein Zurück mehr gibt, enthüllen sich die wahren Hintergründe. Der harte Thriller wird durch Kurosawas kühle, schnörkellose Inszenierung noch intensiver. Typisch auch die verlassenen Industrieanlagen als perfekte Schauplätze. Im Podcast direkt nach dem Film versuchen René von den Abspannguckern und Thomas das Gesehene zu verdauen.Weitere Filme von Kiyoshi Kurosawa bei SchönerDenken.

The film features an ensemble cast that includes Benicio del Toro, Mia Threapleton, Michael Cera, Riz Ahmed, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Mathieu Amalric, Richard Ayoade, Jeffrey Wright, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Rupert Friend, Hope Davis, F. Murray Abraham, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Willem Dafoe, and Bill Murray. An international co-production between the United States and Germany, it was produced by Anderson's company American Empirical Pictures and Steven Rales's company Indian Paintbrush.Anderson talked about the film in June 2023 while promoting Asteroid City; he said it had already been written before the 2023 WGA strike began. That September, he revealed that del Toro and Cera were planned to join the cast, and he hoped to begin filming soon after the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike ended. The rest of the cast signed on between January and June 2024. Filming took place at Babelsberg Studio in Germany, between March and June 2024, with cinematographer Bruno Delbonnel. Frequent Anderson collaborator Alexandre Desplat returned to compose the score.The Phoenician Scheme had its world premiere in the main competition of the 2025 Cannes Film Festival on May 18, 2025,[3] and was released theatrically in the United States by Focus Features on May 30, with a release date of June 29, 2025 set for Germany by Universal Pictures. The film received generally positive reviews.

Der phönizische Meisterstreich | Viele Stars, noch mehr Symmetrie Es wird wieder einmal symmetrisch – Wes Anderson kehrt am 29. Mai mit seinem neuen Film „Der phönizische Meisterstreich“ auf die Kinoleinwand zurück. In der skurrilen Komödie spielt Benicio del Toro einen exzentrischen Geschäftsmann, der gemeinsam mit seiner Tochter Liesl (gespielt von Mia Threapleton), einer Nonne, und einem Insektenexperten einen raffinierten Coup plant. Wie Schlogger, Stu und ihre Gästin Laura vom WILD Magazin den Film fanden, verraten wir an dieser Stelle nicht. Stattdessen nutzen wir den Raum, um all die illustren Namen zu nennen, die sich im hochkarätigen Ensemble tummeln. Also: einmal tief Luft holen, denn es folgt ein echtes Star-Feuerwerk. Mit dabei sind: Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Willem Dafoe, Michael Cera, Riz Ahmed, Bryan Cranston, Benedict Cumberbatch, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Jeffrey Wright, Bill Murray, F. Murray Abraham, Mathieu Amalric, Hope Davis, Rupert Friend und Richard Ayoade. Viel Spaß mit der neuen Folge vom Tele-Stammtisch!

Hello everyone and welcome back to another review here on MOVIE Morning. Wes Anderson's latest film - The Phoenician Scheme - hit UK cinemas this past weekend and will have a slow international rollout over the next month or so. I am a bit of a Wes Anderson noob. I watched Fantastic Mr. Fox obsessively when I was younger and have seen The Grand Budapest Hotel but other than that, I don't have an exact recollection of whether I've seen any of his other movies. Because of the early release here, I thought I'd give The Phoenician Scheme a shot, especially because Anderson has such a passionate following and the plot description seemed interesting to me. Is it worth seeing at the cinema?

For a long-running franchise like the James Bond series, the release of Casino Royale in 2006 was just a shot in the arm - this was the first film starring Daniel Craig as Agent 007 and it was also THE first film in the history of this franchise to be a genuine reboot. It received stellar reviews, made a ton of money, and was beloved by fans....it was also the first entry to end on a genuine cliffhanger. The plan for the next film was to have an immediate follow-up for our lead character as that ending would directly lead into this next story from the first scene on. So needless to say, expectations were QUITE high for this follow-up sequel released just about two years later....And while this movie did make as much money as its predecessor, the reviews were much worse and for the most part, fans were quite disappointed. This came from a director (Marc Forster) who had never directed a big budget entertainment like this before and it also started filming without a finished script.....and since there was a writer's strike at the time, that script remained largely unfinished through production. AND....this was a generally downbeat story also filmed in an admitted more claustrophobic style. It just left a sour taste in the mouths of audiences which fortunately was forgotten four years later with the release of the beloved Skyfall.So now revisiting this sequel 15 years later, was it really that bad? Well it featured a strong cast including Olga Kurylenko as the latest "Bond girl," Mathieu Amalric as the latest villain, and some returning cast from the previous film including Judi Dench, Giancarlo Giannini, and Jeffrey Wright. So let's find out....if there was a quantum....of....solace? :Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon https://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Matt's shaking it up this week to bring us the whimsical art style of Wes Anderson in 2014 hit The Grand Budapest Hotel. It was a silly and fun time, but some of us don't like silly and fun.Directed by Wes Anderson. Starring Ralph Fiennes, F. Murray Abraham, and Mathieu Amalric."The Grand Budapest Hotel tells of a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars and his friendship with a young employee who becomes his trusted protégé. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting, the battle for an enormous family fortune and the slow and then sudden upheavals that transformed Europe during the first half of the 20th century."Timestamps 0:00 - Intro / Initial Reviews18:37 - Spoiler Territory47:23 - Final Scores Anyone?53:12 - Next Movie RevealFOLLOW US ON SOCIALSInstagram - @thelitterboxpodLetterboxd - thelitterboxpodTwitter/X/Elon's Land of Lawlessness - @litterboxpod
Hello everyone and welcome to Some Like It Scott's newest Countdown miniseries: the Wes Anderson Countdown. To honor one of the great still-working indie writer-director auteurs, who's next film ASTEROID CITY comes out later this year, Scott, Scott, and Jay will be watching all 10 of the American filmmakers' works to-date, from his origins with the '90s heist-comedy BOTTLE ROCKET, all the way to his latest feature, 2021's star-studded anthology drama THE FRENCH DISPATCH. Join us each week over the next 10 weeks as we progress through Anderson's full oeuvre in the buildup to ASTEROID CITY! On Part 10 of the Anderson Countdown, Scott, Scott, and Jay revisit Wes Anderson's most recent film to-date, and discuss the anthology drama: THE FRENCH DISPATCH. Written and directed by Wes, THE FRENCH DISPATCH is set in 1975 and is imagined as an ode to bygone years of journalism (specifically The New Yorker magazine), and delivers that in the form of publishing one final issue for the French foreign bureau of the Liberty, Kansas Evening Sun newspaper, after its founder, Arthur Howitzer Jr. (Bill Murray), passes away unexpectedly. Howitzer wished for the bureau to cease publication after his death, but his staff put the finishing touches on the upcoming issue and publish it in his honor. The film unfurls almost magazine-like, in the form of an anthology, as it splits into 3 different short stories, preceded by an even briefer tour of the local fictional French city, Ennui-sur-Blasé and followed by Howitzer's obituary. The three central stories - The Concrete Masterpiece, Revisions to a Manifesto, and The Private Dining Room of the Police Commissioner - each are written by a different French Dispatch reporter. 'The Concrete Masterpiece' tells the story of a mentally unwell, incarcerated painter, Moses Rosenthaler (Benecio del Toro), whose nude paintings of a prison guard, Simone (Lea Seydoux), spark greed in a fellow inmate and art dealer Julien Cadazio (Adrien Brody), leading to a years-long quest to get Rosenthaler to paint new art for him to sell. 'Revisions to a Manifesto' plots the story of a French student protest-turned-revolution, led by the disaffected Zeffirelli (Timothee Chalamet), after the students' initial concerns about access to the girls' dormitory at school boil over when fellow protestor, Mitch Mitch, is conscripted into the French military. And finally, 'The Private Dining Room of the Police Commissioner', tells the daring story of the kidnapping and rescue of Gigi, the son of the Ennui police commissioner (Mathieu Amalric). Naturally, each story has much more going on beneath the surface, as each story's writer contends with the effects being so close to each events has on them, and sheds its own light on how the magazine's now-late editor-in-chief supported them in their journalistic endeavors. The countdown crew reflect on the star-studded cast, this new filmmaking format for Wes, and whether the the central 3 stories satisfactorily tie together.
This week, we're diving into an extraordinary narrative of mental freedom amidst physical paralysis. We analyze 'The Diving Bell and the Butterfly' (2007), directed by Julian Schnabel, focusing on its compelling storytelling, emotional depth, and the profound human resilience it showcases.
Ryan and Dylan are joined by Ross Widener to talk about one of his favorite movies: At Eternity's Gate.
"For me, there is something about art, it's not a monologue, it's a dialogue. Some people, it doesn't matter who they speak to, they will speak in the same way they would speak to a five-year-old or to an intellectual or to somebody who doesn't speak the language very well. They would speak the same way and they don't care because this is what they have to say, but I think that the natural thing in the dialogue is really to look into the eyes of the person you speak to and see when he understands or when she doesn't understand or when she's moved or when he's angry. And basically out of that, kind of create your own language. And I think the same way that people are excited about learning and speaking different languages - because I think each language has different merits and different aspects.Because my mom grew up in a period where they were excited about Nazi ideology and my mom knew this wasn't a good thing. So this idea of making up your own story instead of taking other people's stories was something that was very important. When I was a child, my mother didn't allow children's books in our home because she insisted on making up the stories for us. For her, basically, it was like the idea of reading us classics from a book was like ordering a pizza instead of cooking dinner. It meant that she didn't care about us. And she felt that because her parents told her bedtime stories in the ghetto where they had no access to books. And she saw how those people who were broken and angry and hurting could still find in their imaginations a brand new story that they made for somebody that they loved. So for her, it was this kind of generosity and something that could not be compared to, for example, buying Alice in Wonderland and reading it to somebody. You had to give more than that."Author, Screenwriter, and Director Etgar Keret is a recipient of the French Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres, the Charles Bronfman Prize, and the Caméra d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival for Jellyfish, which he directed with his wife Shira Geffen.

Some people, it doesn't matter who they speak to, they will speak in the same way they would speak to a five-year-old or to an intellectual or to somebody who doesn't speak the language very well. They would speak the same way and they don't care because this is what they have to say, but I think that the natural thing in the dialogue is really to look into the eyes of the person you speak to and see when he understands or when she doesn't understand or when she's moved or when he's angry. And basically out of that, kind of create your own language. And I think the same way that people are excited about learning and speaking different languages - because I think each language has different merits and different aspects.Because my mom grew up in a period where they were excited about Nazi ideology and my mom knew this wasn't a good thing. So this idea of making up your own story instead of taking other people's stories was something that was very important. When I was a child, my mother didn't allow children's books in our home because she insisted on making up the stories for us. For her, basically, it was like the idea of reading us classics from a book was like ordering a pizza instead of cooking dinner. It meant that she didn't care about us. And she felt that because her parents told her bedtime stories in the ghetto where they had no access to books. And she saw how those people who were broken and angry and hurting could still find in their imaginations a brand new story that they made for somebody that they loved. So for her, it was this kind of generosity and something that could not be compared to, for example, buying Alice in Wonderland and reading it to somebody. You had to give more than that."www.etgarkeret.comThe Middleman www.imdb.com/title/tt11523800www.jmberlin.de/en/exhibition-inside-out-etgar-kerethttps://etgarkeret.substack.comJellyfish http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0807721www.creativeprocess.info www.oneplanetpodcast.org IG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast Photo credit: Lielle Sand

"For me, there is something about art, it's not a monologue. When I do a video dance for a Japanese audience or a sci-fi comedy for a French audience then I do try to think about if I want to shock the audience at a certain moment. I think that the same things that would shock a French person would not necessarily shock an Israeli or a Japanese person, you know? I think that what's funny is that for a lot of people, the fact that my TV show The Middleman (L'Agent Immobilier) is very extreme, but in Israel when they watched it, they never thought it was extreme. They said it was very funny, but because the Israeli reality is much more extreme, so the idea of people shouting at each other or breaking a wall or punching each other or doing weird stuff, the French said, 'Oh, it's over the top.' In Israel, they felt that it was just like the way things are.

Because the fact that she grew up in a place in which you could not trust anyone or you could not trust the narratives in which basically the grownups that she met were not like my parents - who would help me navigate life - but they were like a kind of evil orphanage managers who would steal her food or who would try to molest her or do all those horrible things. So in that sense, she kind of relied on herself for a narrative...So it doesn't really matter so much what's out there, but what matters is how you experience it."www.etgarkeret.comThe Middleman www.imdb.com/title/tt11523800www.jmberlin.de/en/exhibition-inside-out-etgar-kerethttps://etgarkeret.substack.comJellyfish http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0807721www.creativeprocess.info www.oneplanetpodcast.org IG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast Photo credit: Lielle Sand
"There is something about both my parents, but I think especially my mother, it's as if the horrible circumstances that they lived through being Jews in the Holocaust, my mother losing her entire family - it was horrible and traumatic, but it was almost like a very extreme human experiment. And it created something. It's like many times when you put somebody in extreme situations, and most of the time he will crush or she will crush, but sometimes, a superhero will be born. And there is something about my parents, when I came to work on the exhibition about my mother Inside Out, I realized there is something about her that was so unique that it could not have been achieved in normal times. Because the thing that happened with my mother was that, when the war started, she was five years old. When the war ended, she was 11 years old. By the time she was about 10, all the people that she had known before the war had died. Her parents, her brother, her grandfather, her friends.So I think that there was something about my mother that she was a true rebel and an anarchist, not by choice, but by education. Because the fact that she grew up in a place in which you could not trust anyone or you could not trust the narratives in which basically the grownups that she met were not like my parents - who would help me navigate life - but they were like a kind of evil orphanage managers who would steal her food or who would try to molest her or do all those horrible things. So in that sense, she kind of relied on herself for a narrative...So it doesn't really matter so much what's out there, but what matters is how you experience it."Author, Screenwriter, and Director Etgar Keret is a recipient of the French Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres, the Charles Bronfman Prize, and the Caméra d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival for Jellyfish, which he directed with his wife Shira Geffen.

"For me, there is something about art, it's not a monologue. When I do a video dance for a Japanese audience or a sci-fi comedy for a French audience then I do try to think about if I want to shock the audience at a certain moment. I think that the same things that would shock a French person would not necessarily shock an Israeli or a Japanese person, you know? I think that what's funny is that for a lot of people, the fact that my TV show The Middleman (L'Agent Immobilier) is very extreme, but in Israel when they watched it, they never thought it was extreme. They said it was very funny, but because the Israeli reality is much more extreme, so the idea of people shouting at each other or breaking a wall or punching each other or doing weird stuff, the French said, 'Oh, it's over the top.' In Israel, they felt that it was just like the way things are. So it's very, very interesting.""Some people, it doesn't matter who they speak to, they will speak in the same way they would speak to a five-year-old or to an intellectual or to somebody who doesn't speak the language very well. They would speak the same way and they don't care because this is what they have to say, but I think that the natural thing in the dialogue is really to look into the eyes of the person you speak to and see when he understands or when she doesn't understand or when she's moved or when he's angry. And basically out of that, kind of create your own language. And I think the same way that people are excited about learning and speaking different languages - because I think each language has different merits and different aspects."Author, Screenwriter, and Director Etgar Keret is a recipient of the French Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres, the Charles Bronfman Prize, and the Caméra d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival for Jellyfish, which he directed with his wife Shira Geffen.

"And I think that from a young age I've kind of learned that there are good stories, great stories, but none of them is your story. And that you have to kind of make up your own story, not feel just good enough kind of picking up one. And it doesn't matter if it's about Flat Earths or some conspiracy or wanting to clear the world of plastic or going vegan. So just this idea of joining some kind of boy scouts or wearing some kind of uniform or supporting some sports club and saying, Okay, now I don't have to think, I'm the New York Knicks fan! So if they win, I'm happy. If they lose, then I'm sad. I think that there is something, both with my mother and my father, being Holocaust survivors, being orphaned, basically, they had to seek the narrative. They didn't inherit one. It's not like my parents always said, You do like this, you know, and then you can either do what your parents said or rebel against them. It's this idea of What the hell do I do? And I'm looking Outside and Inside to find my narrative, to find my ethics, to find my values.”Author, Screenwriter, and Director Etgar Keret is a recipient of the French Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres, the Charles Bronfman Prize, and the Caméra d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival for Jellyfish, which he directed with his wife Shira Geffen.

Hold Me Tight, the latest directorial venture from actor and filmmaker Mathieu Amalric, is a riveting, kaleidoscopic entry to the canon of movies about women on the verge. The film, which opened on September 9, features Vicky Krieps as Clarisse, a young mother on the run who may—or may not, depending on your reading of the story—be going through indescribable grief. The actor turns in a performance of mesmerizing fluidity and mystery, as Amalric's elliptical storytelling keeps the audience guessing about the nature of Clarisse's reality. Last week, Film Comment Co-Deputy Editors Clinton Krute and Devika Girish welcomed the director and star for a Film Comment Live talk about their new movie, the narrative and cinematic balancing act of depicting a mind in flux, the film's imaginative use of music, and much more.
The French actor and filmmaker Mathieu Amalric ("The Diving Bell & The Butterfly") has a new dramatic feature opening Friday, September 9th called "Hold Me Tight". Also, documentary filmmaker Kevin Shaw discusses his new film "Let the Little Light Shine".
This week on the Film at Lincoln Center podcast, we're revisiting a conversation from the 27th Rendez-Vous with French Cinema with Hold Me Tight (opens tomorrow!) director Mathieu Amalric and actor Vicky Krieps, moderated by NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. Vicky Krieps (Phantom Thread, Bergman Island) gives another riveting performance as Clarisse, a woman on the run from her family for reasons that aren't immediately clear. Widely renowned as an actor but less well-known here for his equally impressive work behind the camera, Mathieu Amalric's sixth feature directorial outing—his most ambitious to date—is a virtuosic, daringly fluid portrait of one woman's fractured psyche. Alternating between Clarisse's adventures on the road and her abandoned husband Marc (Arieh Worthalter) as he struggles to take care of their children at home, Amalric's film keeps viewers uncertain as to the reality of what they're seeing until the final moments of this richly rewarding, moving, and unpredictable portrait of grief.
