Podcast appearances and mentions of Melanie Griffith

This week's movie was ‘Pacific Heights' starring Michael Keaton, Melanie Griffith, and Matthew Modine. Was it the best movie we've ever seen? Definitely not, but the music was good!

Hang onto your slipcases because Blake Howard (One Heat Minute Productions) and special guest Sean Burns (film critic) will discuss the greatness of the departed Gene Hackman in the special CRITERION COLLECTION 4K release of NIGHT MOVES.Night MovesArthur Penn's haunting neonoir reimagines the hard-boiled detective film for the disillusioned, paranoid 1970s. In one of his greatest performances, Gene Hackman oozes world-weary cynicism as a private investigator whose search for an actress's missing daughter (Melanie Griffith) leads him from the Hollywood Hills to the Florida Keys, where he is pulled into a sordid family drama and a sinister conspiracy he can hardly grasp. Bolstered by Alan Sharp's genre-scrambling script and Dede Allen's elliptical editing, the daringly labyrinthine Night Moves is a defining work of post-Watergate cinema—a silent scream of existential dread and moral decay whose legend has only grown with time.4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew 4K digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrackOne 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and one Blu-ray with the film and special featuresNew audio commentary by Matthew Asprey Gear, author of Moseby ConfidentialNew audio interview with actor Jennifer WarrenInterview with director Arthur Penn from a 1975 episode of Cinema ShowcaseInterview with Penn from the 1995 documentary Arthur Penn: A Love Affair with FilmThe Day of the Director, a behind-the-scenes featuretteTrailerEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingPLUS: An essay by critic Mark HarrisNew cover by Greg ManchessSean BurnsSean Burns is a film critic for WBUR's Arts & Culture and a contributing writer at North Shore Movies and Crooked Marquee.

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between.  Today we talk about the great Debra Winger! Our B-Sides include Legal Eagles, Betrayed, The Sheltering Sky, and Forget Paris. Our guest is the inestimable Murtada Elfadl, Culture Writer, Critic, and Film Curator. We discuss Winger's stratospheric rise to stardom, her indescribable performance in Terms of Endearment, and her (unfair?) reputation for being “difficult.” There's also plenty of discussion about Rosanna Arquette's documentary Searching for Debra Winger, a film in which Arquette speaks with many famous actresses about aging in Hollywood. The motivation of the piece was partly motivated by Winger's exodus from the business for over half a decade in the mid-1990s. There's also conversation about Shirley MacLaine's 1984 Oscars speech, Tom Berenger being deeply proud of Betrayed and his performance in the film, and all those NBA players that appear in Forget Paris. Janet Maslin and Roger Ebert's superb reviews of Betrayed are mentioned, as is Debra's perfect laugh. Finally, we touch on when Raquel Welch sued MGM and won for being fired from Cannery Row (Winger replaced her in the role), Winger's dropping out of A League of Their Own after Madonna was cast (bonus Patti LuPone on Evita clip here!), Melanie Griffith and William Hurt being director Bernardo Bertolucci's first choices for the leads in The Sheltering Sky, and Debra Winger's infamous Watch What Happens Live episode.

In this episode, Masie & Stuart get kidnapped and taken on a crazy roadtrip by Jonathan Demme's 1986 comedy-thriller film Something Wild. The second part of Stuart's pairing of manic-pixie dream girl films, our hosts find much to discuss about this film whose tone, characters, and plot developments are truly... well, wild.

En el episodio 18 de esta temporada hablaremos de la película "DE REPENTE, UN EXTRAÑO" ('Pacific Heights', 1990). Este thriller psicológico dirigido por John Schlesinger nos sumerge en la historia de una joven pareja, interpretada por Melanie Griffith y Matthew Modine, que compra una casa en San Francisco con la intención de alquilar parte de ella. Sin embargo, su inquilino, encarnado magistralmente por Michael Keaton, resulta ser una auténtica pesadilla. *Sintonía de entrada: Lucidator de Saggitarius V.

Welcome to Director Watch! On this AwardsWatch podcast, co-hosts Ryan McQuade and Jay Ledbetter attempt to breakdown, analyze, and ultimately, get inside the mind of some of cinema's greatest auteurs. In doing so, they will look at their filmographies, explore what drives them artistically and what makes their decision-making process so fascinating. Add in a few silly tangents and a fun game at the end of the episode and you've got yourself a podcast we truly hope you love. On episode 85 of the Director Watch Podcast, the boys are joined by Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello to discuss the next film in their Mike Nichols series, Working Girl (1988). By the late 1980s, Mike Nichols was back to being a steady force in the industry. After the moderate success of Heartburn, and while filming his other 1988 feature film, Biloxi Blues, he found the script for the next big hit of his career, Working Girl. In finding a tale of an ambitious secretary from Staten Island working her way up the corporate ladder, pretending to be in her boss's role and proving herself valuable while also falling in love with the man she partners with on a big deal for both of their companies. Working Girl is not only a staple within Nichols' filmography, but it is a defining film of the 1980s led by extraordinary performances, zippy dialogue, and just the right amount of earnestness to make it a classic. Ryan, Jay, and Sophia talk about their thoughts on the film, Melanie Griffith's career best performance, just how complex the story is, the hotness of Harrison Ford, the elegance of Sigourney Weaver, which beer brand is the king of cheap beer, discussions on modern popstars, and over a dozen fun tangents that make this episode so long, yet so great. You can listen to the Director Watch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music and more. This podcast runs 2h44m. The guys will be back next week to continue their series on the films of Mike Nichols with a review of his next film, Postcards from the Edge. You can rent it via iTunes and Amazon Prime rental in preparation for the next episode of Director Watch. Till then, let's get into it. Music: MUSICALIFE, from Pond5 (intro) and “B-3” from BoxCat Games Nameless: The Hackers RPG Soundtrack (outro).

Welcome back to the Video Store! Valentine's Day is almost upon us and if you're here looking for movie selections instead of out buying flowers or making dinner reservations, then sir or madam, I salute you. For this week's episode of the show I've picked four movies that feature unconventional relationships. After browsing the stores aisles looking for this week's film recommendations, I ended up rewatching all four of these movies (a couple of which I hadn't seen in decades) and for the most part they have all aged well. Harold and Maude (1971)Harold is a young adult obsessed with death, while Maude is a 79-year-old woman infatuated with life. The two share a hobby in common — attending the funerals of strangers — and soon this odd couple forms a close relationship. Wikipedia describes this film as a “romantic black comedy drama,” which only begins to describe it. It's sweet, it's funny, and it's emotional. While critics originally hated it, the film as gone on to appear in many “best of” film lists. Something Wild (1986)The last person you would expect a New York banker like Charlie to get involved with is a carefree person like Lulu, but after she kidnaps the yuppie for a weekend of reckless fun, Charlie finds the adventure exciting… until things get out of hand. When Lulu's husband discovers what the pair has been up to, he is none too happy. Someone — or perhaps everyone — has been lying. This not-to-miss thriller stars Jeff Daniels as Charlie, Melanie Griffith as Lulu, and a terrifying Ray Liotta has Lulu's husband, Ray. After Hours (1985)Have you ever had one of those days? After work, Paul Hackett heads to a local diner where he meets a woman named Marcy. The two exchange numbers and later, she invites him over to her apartment. This starts off a chain of events that will have Paul running around the streets of New York from one mess to the next. Before the end of the night his face ends up on wanted posters, he's chased by an angry mob, and he becomes involved in a city wide crime ring. It's a night that Paul will never forget — or maybe, survive. Featuring a star-packed cast including Griffin Dunne (An American Werewolf in London), Rosanna Arquette, Linda Fiorentino, Teri Garr, Catherine O'Hara, Bronson Pinchot, Dick Miller, and even Cheech and Chong. Directed by Martin Scorsese.Valley Girl (1983)Randy (Nicholas Cage) is a punk rocker from Hollywood. Julie (Deborah Foreman) is a Valley Girl. Their worlds are complete opposites and it seems that everybody and everything will try and stop them from getting together, but sometimes, love finds a way. This classic 80s film was directed by Martha Coolidge and will take you back to the sights, sounds, and music of the 1980s.Thanks for checking out the podcast. If you don't have plans this Valentine's Day, you can have a great time renting and watching one of these films. And if you would prefer to get out of the house, you can always drop by a stranger's funeral. You never know who you'll meet! This is a public episode.

Herzlich willkommen zu einem neuen BB RADIO Mitternachtstalk Podcast! Ich bin Jens Herrmann, und heute erwartet euch eine Stimme, die ihr garantiert schon unzählige Male gehört habt – ohne es vielleicht bewusst zu wissen. Mein Gast ist einer der gefragtesten und fleißigsten Synchronschauspieler Deutschlands: Peter Flechtner! Er ist die deutsche Stimme von Ben Affleck – und nicht nur das. Auch William Fichtner, David James Elliott, Billy Crudup, Ty Burrell oder die Anime-Legende „Lupin III“ verdanken ihm ihre markante deutsche Stimme. In der Synchronkartei ist er immer ganz vorne mit dabei – kein Wunder, bei über 40 Jahren Erfahrung in der Branche! Seine Stimme begleitet uns in Filmen, Serien, Hörspielen, Werbespots und Videogames. Kurz gesagt: Er ist aus unserer Medienwelt nicht wegzudenken. Seine Karriere begann früh – schon als Kind war er im Radio zu hören. Entdeckt wurde er durch Oliver Rohrbeck, den ihr als Stimme von Ben Stiller, Chris Rock und natürlich Justus Jonas aus den „Drei ???“ kennt. Über Rohrbecks Mutter, die eine Kinderagentur leitete, kam er zum Sprechen – und der Rest ist Geschichte. Später ging es für ihn ans Theater, wo ihn Klaus Sonnenschein, der Chef der „Tribüne“, entdeckte. Doch während das Theater seine Leidenschaft war, brachte die Synchronarbeit das nötige Kleingeld – und so nahm seine Karriere in den Studios Fahrt auf. Peter Flechtner kennt die Branche wie kaum ein anderer. Und nicht nur das: Er hat selbst Hollywood-Luft geschnuppert! Er spielte in Steven Spielbergs Meisterwerk „Schindlers Liste“ mit und war auch in „Wie ein Licht in dunkler Nacht“ an der Seite von Melanie Griffith zu sehen. Heute plaudert er mit uns über seine unglaubliche Karriere, die Höhen und Tiefen des Schauspiel- und Synchronbusiness und verrät uns, warum ihm seine erste Synchronrolle überhaupt keinen Spaß gemacht hat. Außerdem bekommt ihr spannende „Behind-the-Scenes“-Stories und erfahrt, wie er als Punk in Berlin unterwegs war. Das wird spannend, unterhaltsam und definitiv ein Talk mit viel Stimme – also viel Spaß jetzt mit Peter Flechtner, der Stimme Hollywoods!

Welcome back to another edition of the Video Store Podcast. This week, get your BFFs together for a movie marathon focusing on Film Friendships. I've selected four films for the staff picks wall, highlighting my favorite best buds and friendships forged in fire. I also answer the age-old question, “Can men and women really be friends?” Let's dig in. Stand by Me (1986)First up is Rob Reiner's 1986 coming-of-age classic, Stand by Me. Starring Wil Wheaton, River Phoenix, Corey Feldman, Jerry O'Connell, and Keifer Sutherland, Stand by Me is a classic focusing on the friendship between four boys growing up in the summer of 1959. Do you still have friends like you did when you were twelve? I hope so. Gather your besties on the couch for this one. Now and Then (1995)Next is the 1995 film Now and Then. I return to my twelve-year-old self whenever I watch this film, not just because I relate to the young leads of the film, but because of the deep and sincere friendship that is the film's through-line. Starring Christina Ricci, Rosie O'Donnell, Thora Birch, Melanie Griffith, Gaby Hoffman, Demi Moore, Ashleigh Aston Moore, and Rita Wilson, these ladies deliver a powerful dramatic, and comedic performance. Get your best gals together for a great film with a great soundtrack. When Harry Met Sally… (1989)Yes, I know what you're thinking: a rom-com in a movie about friendship? You read that right. When Harry Met Sally… addresses the age-old question, “Can men and women be friends?” Well, I've got thoughts on the matter and you'll have to listen to this week's show to find out why I've selected this one for a podcast on film friendship. Thelma & Louise (1991)Closing out our staff picks wall this week is the 1991 drama/comedy/road movie Thelma & Louise. Starring Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon, this Oscar-winning film about two best friends on the run from the law deals deeply with ideas of freedom, friendship, and letting go of others' expectations. Get your bestie to ride shotgun with you for this one. Buckle up. It's a bumpy ride. Thanks for joining us this week on the Video Store Podcast. We hope you'll bring a friend with you and enjoy these films together. Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work. This is a public episode.

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. Filmmakers like Scorsese, Coppola, Cassavetes, Altman, Lumet, and DePalma hit their stride and brought to the screen their specific vision and stylized films. It was a very experimental era where boundaries were pushed and once-taboo topics were explored. It became a creative high point and gave us some iconic movies. This week, Steve And Nan take look at some of their favorite films of the 1970s.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Terrance Malick and the Examined Life (2024), by Martin Woessner;  Films of the 1970s (2017), by Jurgen Muller; Hollywood's Last Golden Age: Politics, Society, and the Seventies Film in America (2012), by Jonathan Kirshner; How the Sex, Drugs, and Rock-n-Roll Generation Saved Hollywood (1998), by Peter Biskind; Picture Shows: The Life and Films of Peter Bogdonavich (1992), by Andrew Yule; “Jane Fonda on Klute,” July 18, 2019, The Criterion Collection;  TCM.com; IMDBPro.com; IBDB.com; Wikipedia.com; Movies Mentioned:  Smile (1975), starring Bruce Dern, Barbara Feldon, Michael Kidd, Nicholas Pryor, Annette O'Toole, Joan Prather, Melanie Griffith, Geoffrey Lewis, Maria O'Brien, Colleen Camp, Eric Shea, Denise Nickerson, and Titos Vandsis; Klute (1971), starring Jane Fonda, Donald Sutherland, Roy Scheider, Dorothy Tristan, Charles Cioffi, Jean Stapleton, Rita Gam, and Vivian Nathan; Badlands (1973), starring Martin Sheen, Sissy Spacek, Warren Oates, Garry Littlejohn, Alan Vint, and John Womack; The Sting (1973), starring Paul Newman, Robert Redford, Robert Saw, Robert Earl Jones, Charles Durning, Ray Walston, Charles Dierkop, Harold Gould, Sally Kellerman, and Eileen Brennan; The Last Picture Show (1971), starring Timothy Bottoms, Cybill Shepherd, Jeff Bridges, Ellen Burstyn, Ben Johnson, Cloris Leachman, Eileen Brennan, Clu Gulager, Sam Bottoms, Sharon Taggart, Randy Quad, and Bill Thurman; A Little Romance (1979), staring Laurence Olivier, Diane Lane, Thelonious Bernard, Arthur Hill, Sally Kellerman, Broderick Crawford, David Dukes, Andrew Duncan, and Claudette Sutherland; --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.

Send us a textRemember those carefree days of the 90s, when our biggest worry was catching our favorite movie on VHS? We take you on a trip down memory lane as we hilariously unpack the quirks and absurdities of "Milk Money," starring Melanie Griffith and Ed Harris. As we reminisce about our youthful adventures pedaling through suburban streets, we can't help but chuckle over our past misconceptions about the film's plot and the bizarre misadventures of its characters. Get ready for a laughter-filled discussion as we debate the merits of 90s cinema and the surprising mix-ups involving Anne Heche's roles.Our curiosity doesn't stop with the big screen; we dive into the classic myth of a deadly penny drop from the Empire State Building, only to debunk it with a nod to science. There's also an exciting detour into a fictional movie narrative, complete with treehouses and mysterious time capsules. Through playful banter and a touch of comedic genius, we explore character backstories, such as Frank's battle with grief, and sprinkle in some hilariously relatable suburban oddities, like clogged drains and household plumbing fiascos.In a rollercoaster of plot twists, we dissect the peculiar family dynamics and comedic chaos in "Milk Money," questioning everything from steering wheel removals to quirky character motivations. Our critique is lighthearted yet insightful as we ponder the strange romantic entanglements and questionable parenting choices that defined 90s teen flicks. With a nod to magazine nostalgia and the anticipation of watching "Freejack" next, we keep the laughs coming and invite you to join us for another trip into classic 90s film territory.

In this episode of The Compendium, we explore the chaotic legacy of Roar, the most dangerous movie ever made. Find out how Tippi Hedren, Noel Marshall, and a young Melanie Griffith risked life and limb filming a "ferocious comedy" starring 150 “untamed” lions and tigers. From real injuries on set to an 11-year production nightmare, we uncover the shocking truth behind a cult classic that redefined Hollywood disaster.

This week we're auditioning for the role of a lifetime as DePALMBER: PART DE continues with another example of what feels like well-worn territory for our man of the month: an erotic thriller in which a working class man in show business is forced to be an unlikely hero as he becomes entangled in a murder. It's 1984's Body Double, directed, produced, and co-written from a story by Brian De Palma, and starring Craig Wasson, Melanie Griffith, Gregg Henry, Deborah Shelton, Guy Boyd and Dennis Franz. As De Palma's immediate follow-up to Scarface, it's a brazenly bizarre swing on what was surely a blank check opportunity, and we have to admire the effort. Dripping in Hitchcockian influence with a plot that plays like Rear Window and Vertigo at the same time, it's another terrific showcase of that 80s cool De Palma style that would be pillaged decades later in the Grand Theft Auto video games. Plus: J Mo goes knives out on Wicked, having been held hostage by it for nearly three hours. If you'd like to watch the movie before listening to our discussion, Body Double is not currently streaming in Canada but can be rented on YouTube for $5. Other works referenced in this episode include The Producers (2005), Avengers Endgame, The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremact, Doubt, The Manchurian Candidate (2004), The Manchurian Candidate (1962), The Fog (2005), Mission: Impossible - Fallout, Super 8, The Fablemans, West Side Story (2021), Rory Scovel: Religion, Sex & A Few Things In Between, Batman Returns, Batman & Robin, The Game, North by Northwest and Deep Water, among others. We take a quick break from De Palma next week, as our final release before Christmas Day means it's time to celebrate Shaqmas once again! Our annual holiday tradition of covering a selection from the filmography of Shaquille O'Neal continues this year with what is surely the best movie he ever made: 1994's Blue Chips, directed by William Friedkin and co-starring Nick Nolte. And our DePalmber Canon Entry at the end of the month is 1981's Blow Out! Until next week, we'll see you at the movies!!

I've been wanting to check this one off the list for a while. With Larry Clark being one of my favorite directors, this was an early one in his filmography.  Now, this was a weird one for me. There were certain aspects that I was expecting that didn't really make sense for me. In this episode I worked out the bias I was going into the film with, and explain the concept of a 'that guy' in movies and tv. Off-topic rants include: Twin Peaks and David Lynch, my very lonnggg current watch queue, The Big Hit, and movies of 1998---Get BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show join the  Patreon! Host: Lauren @lauren_melanieFind more Fashion Grunge on LinktreeJoin me on Substack:  The Lo Down: a Fashion Grunge Blog/newsletter☕️ Support Fashion Grunge on Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/fashiongrunge

In this episode of "Lunchtime Movie Critics," we delve into the 1987 cult classic "Cherry 2000." Directed by Steve De Jarnatt, this film paints a dystopian future where human relationships and emotions are commodified through lifelike robots. Join us as we explore the story of Sam Treadwell, who embarks on a perilous journey through a post-apocalyptic wasteland to replace his malfunctioning robot companion, Cherry. Alongside tough-as-nails tracker E. Johnson, played by Melanie Griffith, Sam's quest raises profound questions about love, technology, and human connection. Tune in as we unpack the film's unique blend of action, romance, and sci-fi, examining its commentary on societal trends and its legacy in the realm of cult cinema.

Directed by Noel Marshall and starring Tippi Hedren and Melanie Griffith, the movie featured over 100 untrained lions, tigers, and other big cats, leading to an on-set environment so dangerous that it resulted in numerous injuries to cast and crew. The film's reputation as "the most dangerous movie ever made" stems from real-life attacks, with over 70 reported injuries, including severe maulings and bites. It is a bizarre and chilling reminder of the perils of mixing untrained wild animals with film production. After that heart-warming stuff, we cover news about Van Halen, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Black Sabbath, The Hard Rock, and more."Did You Heard About This?" breaks down show business topics and news stories.

Welcome back to another episode of The Video Store Podcast. This week, I have some new recommendations, featuring a selection of neo-noir classics from the '70s and early '80s. These films capture the essence of the genre with their complex characters, intricate plots, and moody atmospheres. I grew up as a fan of original noir films that I would see on TV late shows and weekend film fests. So as I got older, my enjoyment of these made a lot of sense.First up is The Long Goodbye (1973), directed by Robert Altman. This film features Elliott Gould as Philip Marlowe, a laid-back private detective navigating a world of mystery and betrayal in contemporary Los Angeles. Altman's unique take on Raymond Chandler's classic character adds a touch of humor and irreverence to the story. Pay attention to the film's soundtrack by John Williams, which cleverly reprises the same theme in various styles throughout the movie.Next, we have Chinatown (1974), directed by Roman Polanski. This film stars Jack Nicholson as private investigator Jake Gittes, who gets entangled in a web of corruption and deceit in 1930s Los Angeles. Faye Dunaway and John Huston deliver unforgettable performances. Keep an eye out for the film's meticulous attention to detail, from its period-accurate costumes to its stunning cinematography by John A. Alonzo. This might be the most famous film that has a nose-slashing in it.Moving on, I am recommending Night Moves (1975), directed by Arthur Penn. Gene Hackman stars as Harry Moseby, a former football player turned private investigator. As he searches for a runaway teenager, Moseby finds himself caught in a dark and twisted conspiracy. Hackman's performance, as you might expect, is a standout, and the film's ambiguous ending will leave you pondering long after the credits roll (Seventies!) Keep an eye out for a young Melanie Griffith in one of her earliest roles.Lastly, we have Cutter's Way (1981), directed by Ivan Passer. This film features Jeff Bridges as Richard Bone, who becomes involved in a murder investigation with his friend Alex Cutter, played by John Heard. The film paints a sad/confusing picture of post-Vietnam America and explores themes of disillusionment and betrayal. The chemistry between Bridges and Heard is electric, and Lisa Eichhorn delivers a heartbreaking performance as Cutter's wife, Mo.These films are essential viewing for any fan of the noir genre or films of the seventies. While they have a lot in common, they each also bring something unique to the table and showcase some of the best talent of their time, both in front of and behind the camera.

Shauna fills Olivia in on what she's been doing lately - as if they both didn't just spend the week on a girls trip in Mexico. Shauna tells us how she was detained by TSA upon re-entering the USA, (it's not as bad as it sounds!) and both she and Olivia agree there was a lot of sad pop culture news to take in upon their return. To get out of that funk, the Junkies talk about the lighthearted family comedy/snuff film their producers made them watch: Roar, also called "The Most Dangerous Movie Ever Made." While Shauna and Olivia weren't impressed with the whisper-thin plot and so-so acting (even though it stars Tippi Hedren and Melanie Griffith), they couldn't help but be awed by the choices made by producer Noel Marshall and his family, and not in a good way. Between 70-120 members of the cast and crew were mauled, maimed, scalped, bitten and broken during production - but the Junkies have all the reasons you need to see this movie anyway, like using it as the basis of a life-threatening drinking game. (Disclaimer: no animals or humans were injured in the making of this podcast. The same cannot be said for Roar.)The Pop Culture Junkie Podcast can now be seen on YouTube!

Justin Beahm stops by for our final Mad Max episode to discuss two films with female protagonists: CHERRY 2000 (1987) starring Melanie Griffith and David Andrews and TANK GIRL (1995) directed by Rachel Talalay and starring Lori Petty, Naomi Watts, and Ice-T. website: https://www.justinbeahm.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justinbeahm The Justin Beahm Radio Hour is available on all podcasting platforms and on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@JustinBeahmRadioHour

Melanie Griffith tells Ray about her life-changing accident when competing in a motocross race and the personal strength that helped with her recovery, and led her to remarkable achievements in parasport.

Sam and Beth roll it back to discuss this quintessential 80s classic directed by Jonathan Demme. It could be argued that this film was responsible for launching the careers of Melanie Griffith, Jeff Daniels, and Ray Liotta —who would all go on to long success as perennial A-Listers (RIP Ray ❤️). It also solidified the status of artists like David Byrne, and Laurie Anderson in popular culture as pioneers and innovators in music. The soundtrack is extensive with 29 songs featuring The Feelies and an iconic performance by Sister Carol (one of Demme's favorite artists and who he also featured in Married to the Mob). We go heavy into the discussion about what defines the true 80s aesthetic, and the authentic early 80s experience —something we think that filmmakers frequently get wrong. This film is a beautiful snapshot of a particularly special time in NYC, where people of all walks of life were creating a scene and making things happen. NYC was going through a time of reimagining and reinvention. Demme's film unfolds to reveal an experience that is one of thousands of tales from the city, and provides the texture and sound that is the closest thing to actually living it.

This week on Erotic Thriller Club we are chatting Brian De Palma's homage to Hitchcock. Do some dogs go to hell? Would you star in a porno to solve the case? Do you believe in g-g-g-ghouls??

Today we meet the effervescent Kim Harmon Gatlin, a Dallas native and author of the bestseller "Good Christian Bitches," which led to the ABC TV series. Kim opens up about the book's inspirations, rooted in her own experiences of high-society Dallas, and how her divorce from Rudy Gatlin of the Gatlin Brothers fueled her creative process.  We swap outrageous stories about Dallas society, from the social expectations to the underground dating and hook-up scene.  Kim tells us about her latest project: investigating a notorious murder and trial in Dallas, which Kristi says pre-empted the city's "decadent eighties". Kim's Book:-https://www.amazon.com/dp/1401310702cspi=7cdab098b824864afb44b7d45262940a0339730f3cfccbe753d3375ed4f4d8d83be05c45972790389011887405dac064a0826805b80756d18897884bf4472d16&ref_=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_bks_apin_dp_XF9H99CR4QKC589NA1FS&skipTwisterOG=2STORIES:-(00:00) Start (00:11) Introducing Kim Harmon Gatlin and her book, "Good Christian Bitches"(03:32) When Kim began journalling, and changing the names from Dallas Society(06:27) "Society in Dallas is a blood sport"(10:06) Good Christian Bitches, Broadway Dreams(14:10) "You're gay, I'm praying for your soul"(14:59) Church Culture, politics and hypocrisy (22:37) "Good Christian Bastards" - they're worse than the women (28:24) The Cattle Baron's Ball (33:11) Texas Diamonds and Social Etiquette(36:54) There's so much material in Dallas(37:01) Dallas and the Entertainment Industry(38:34) The Victoria's Secret store at the Dallas Cowboys(42:38) The next project - an old Texas murder mystery (54:09) "We need to have a talk with your mother" (55:10) "She's going to be famous for talking one day" (58:12) One Life Lesson: "Trust, but verify"

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana discuss the 1984 Alfred Hitch....no, wait, the Brian DePalma noir thriller Body Double.  Fresh off of Scarface, DePalma used all his new clout and decided he wanted to rip off Alfred Hitchcock, but make it more sexy (?).  Bill Maher apparently wasn't avalible, so they got some dude who looked just like him, to perv around a fresh faced Melanie Griffith.  There is not a lot to like about this movie.  They took all the things we liked about Rear Window and Vertigo and sleazed them up.  But not sexy sleaze.  Just gross.   One high point is the "Relax" video from Frankie Goes to Hollywood that is filmed durning the middle of this movie.  Weird.  Hate watch the movie then love listen to the podcast.  Enjoy.

Sean and Brad review the 1977 classic One on One.  They talk about how weird the main character is, Sean impersonates Keanu Reeves in Speed, and they talk about how awkward writing this movie with your father might have been.  Also, were red hot pokers a thing in the late 70s? Cause this movie hinges on one, and it's more than a little strange.Next episode: The original Fever Pitch from 1997Fever Pitch (UK) is streaming on Peacock, TUBI, Crackle, Plex, and Freevee.  You can also check out your local library to see if they have it. Support the Show.Twitter: @slowpitchcastInstagram: @slowpitchpodcastEmail: slowpitchthepodcast@gmail.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/slowpitchpodcastPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/slowpitch
