Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) is a tomboyish FBI agent who is tasked with having to infiltrate the Miss United States beauty pageant as a contestant (Miss New Jersey) in order to prevent the threat of a bomb attack from a mysterious terrorist.....and HILARITY ensues! :) Actually in this case it did as twenty-five years ago, this became a surprise comedy blockbuster and pretty much cemented the since-then Oscar-winning Sandra Bullock as one of our most popular movie starts in the decades since. And she doesn't do it alone either: the stacked cast includes Benjamin Bratt, Michael Caine, Candace Bergen, and William Shatner. Directed by Donald Petrie (How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days, Mystic Pizza, Grumpy Old Men), let's return back to a simpler time when swimsuit competitions were actually something folks watched on TV and....bikini wax jokes were still funny. ;) Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
Neal Stephenson—legendary sci-fi author who coined "metaverse" in his 1992 novel Snow Crash—and Rebecca Barkin, co-founder of Lamina1, return to the AI XR Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about building a decentralized creator economy, launching their dystopian AI world-building project Artifact, and why blockchain might finally free creators from Big Tech's chokehold. Joined by Charlie, Ted, and Rony, the discussion spans Neal's lost Magic Leap project, the resurrection of the open metaverse dream, and how decentralized platforms could flip Hollywood's power structure on its head.Rebecca details Lamina1's journey from blockchain currency for the open metaverse to Spaces, a multimedia creator platform built on Ethereum that allows IP owners to retain control, set royalties, and build direct relationships with fans. Think YouTube meets Discord, but on decentralized rails. The goal isn't socialism—it's a creative meritocracy where artists get equity in platforms they help build, instead of just one-time payouts while Netflix captures all the value.Neal unpacks Artifact, Lamina1's first creative test case: a post-Singularity world where 12 competing mega-AIs fight over energy, copper, water, and GPUs while humans live in the interstices. Co-created with Weta Workshop using AI tools like World Labs' marble splats, the project invites fans to co-create lore, not just consume it. It's a living experiment in collaborative IP development—and proof that small teams with AI amplifiers can build Grand Theft Auto-scale worlds.Guest HighlightsNeal Stephenson coined "metaverse" in Snow Crash; former Magic Leap creative lead with lost IP still trapped at the company.Rebecca Barkin pivoted Lamina1 from metaverse currency to Spaces: a decentralized platform for multimedia creators retaining IP rights and earning equity.Artifact launches as Lamina1's test case—collaborative world-building in a dystopian post-AI Singularity where fans shape the narrative.Built on Ethereum with Consensus Network backing; uses blockchain to solve micro-transaction volatility and give creators sustainable economics.Signed Bob's Burgers team (Ghosted Media) and other Hollywood refugees seeking autonomy from studio gatekeepers.News HighlightsValve launches PC cube + wireless Index headset—sub-$1000 system to compete with Xbox/PlayStation and revive PCVR market, but will enthusiasts bite?Meta adds real-time computer vision to AI glasses—Ray-Ban smart glasses gain live AI interpretation, pushing toward inflection point for wearables.Google Maps integrates Gemini AI—natural language directions and real-world context awareness transform navigation into conversational copilot.11 Labs launches voice marketplace—Michael Caine licenses voice cloning; Matthew McConaughey invests but won't sell his own likeness.Disney announces AI user-generated content strategy—Bob Iger teases platforms for fans to create with Disney IP, following Lego's remix culture playbook.Big thanks to our sponsor Zappar.

In this episode of The Go-To Food Podcast, we sit down with one of Britain's most brilliant young chefs, Merlin Labron-Johnson—the visionary behind OSIP, the tiny Somerset restaurant recently crowned Restaurant of the Year by the Good Food Guide. Merlin opens up about his move from the intensity of London's dining scene to the calm of the countryside, explaining why creativity needs “mental and physical space” and how the stars over Somerset matter more than Michelin ones. He reflects on leaving the chaos of Portland and Clipstone behind to build something truer to his roots—a farm-led restaurant that grows almost everything it serves.From learning to cook school lunches at 14 after being kicked out of multiple schools, to enduring the brutal kitchens of France and Switzerland, Merlin's story is one of resilience and redefinition. He shares vivid tales of his early mentors—Michael Caines' “Thai puree” at The Abode, and the revelatory salt-baked celeriac at In De Wulf in Belgium, where a chef finally asked him, “How are you feeling?” That question, he says, changed everything about how he cooks and how he leads.Merlin also pulls back the curtain on life at OSIP today—where there's no menu, dishes arrive as surprises, and the chefs might also be the ones who picked your carrots that morning. He talks about resisting culinary clichés (“Everyone needs to relax on caviar”), his devotion to balance and storytelling on the plate, and the creative discipline of cooking from what the land gives. From his love of Fergus Henderson's prose to his dream pub pint of nameless cider at the Seymour Arms, this is an episode that captures the soul of a chef who's rewriting what fine dining can mean.-------Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by Blinq—POS made simple: £69/month, unlimited devices, 24/7 UK support, no contracts or hidden fees.

My Dinner with Andre (1981) is a film that uses the simple premise of two men sharing a meal as a vehicle for exploration of how we should live our lives. It asks fundamental questions about happiness and self-fulfillment that it doesn't wholly answer. The Trip (2010) uses the same premise as a way to dramatize two men earnestly debating who does the better impressions of Michael Caine, Al Pacino, and Sean Connery. But for all its playground sensibility, The Trip is not without ideas regarding how friendships are formed and sustained. Join us for a conversation about the real reason why men befriend each other and what they want from each other. Hint: it's not sympathy, high regard, or a non-judgmental ear. If watching The Trip makes you want to make a reservation at your favorite spot, you may want to first read Adam Reiner's The New Rules of Dining Out: An Insider's Guide to Enjoying Restaurants.

In one of the best movies every created, this week we dive into The Prestige. Directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman, Scarlet Johanson, Michael Caine, Piper Perabo....and David Bowie. This fantasy/adventure film is a tale of magic, deception, sacrifice, mystery, love and a little bit of crime drama. It's a woeful 19th century cautionary tale of not trusting ANYONE, maybe double checking the woods and don't cheat on your (?) wife. Like we said, it's perfect. Any other take is fake news.
Send us a textLong before Halloween made it the hottest trend and Scream was spoofing the idea, Jaws was the master of the requel.This week, Pete takes us through Jaws: The Revenge, a film that completely ignores the events of the third entry and bills itself as the "actual" end of the trilogy.Lorrain Gary returns from retirement to portray Ellen Brody, widow and grieving mother after the death of her youngest son. Her oldest, Michael, takes her away to the Bahamas where he works as a marine biologist and lives with his family. However, a vengeful shark follows them across the Atlantic Ocean and continues hunting the family in this ultimately silly conclusion to the Jaws franchise.Join us as we discuss roaring sharks, high-explosive bug zappers, and the house that Michael Caine built with the money from this film.Get ready for a tropical escape filled with blood and terror, but remember: don't get too scared!
This time, IT'S PERSONAL! Dana and Bill are diving into the abyss of cinematic absurdity with their audio commentary for the legendary "so bad it's good" sequel, Jaws: The Revenge!Widowed Ellen Brody (Lorraine Gary) is convinced a great white shark has developed a supernatural, personal vendetta against her family and has followed them all the way from New England to the Bahamas. Join us as we try to make sense of one of the most infamously bizarre blockbusters ever made.We're covering all the baffling moments: Sean Brody's Christmas carol-drowned death, the shark that travels thousands of miles in days, Ellen's apparent psychic link to the predator, the sheer star power of Michael Caine (who "never saw the film, but saw the house it built"), and, of course, that shocking finale where the shark... roars and then explodes! It's a must-listen for anyone who appreciates glorious filmmaking failure.

In this episode Antony explores some of the main themes from the movie Educating Rita. He considers how Rita, played by Julie Waters, comes to terms with her struggle to create a new identity and lifestyle. Antony also reflects upon the friendship between Rita and her teacher Frank, played by Michael Caine, in terms of what it reveals about the fragility of being a human being.Click on the link to view the movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6aKJzmas70
The Government is under huge pressure to explain why the high-profile trial of two men accused of spying for China collapsed just weeks before it was due to begin.Former parliamentary researcher Christopher Cash and Christopher Berry were charged under the Official Secrets Act, accused of gathering sensitive information for Beijing between December 2021 and February 2023. Both men have always maintained their innocence. Now, ministers face mounting criticism after the Crown Prosecution Service said the case failed because key evidence linking China to national security threats was never provided. In today's episode of The Daily T, Camilla and Jacob Rees-Mogg discuss how a collapsed spy case could spell serious trouble for Starmer's Government. We're also joined by Tory MP Tom Tugendhat who points out that his party repeatedly described China as a threat to the country whilst in Government. And should Westminster really be deciding how people discipline their own children? As acting legend Michael Caine and the former England footballer Alan Shearer join calls for Keir Starmer to ban smacking, Camilla and JRM share their own experiences of disciplining their children (and you might be surprised by Jacob's response).► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

Send us a textSPECIAL NOTE: SEASON 15 OF THE GOOD, THE POD AND THE UGLY CELEBRATES THE USE OF THE PRACTICAL AND DIGITAL EFFECT KNOWN AS THE SQUIB. IRL GUN VIOLENCE IS INTOLERABLE AND RENOUNCED BUT... CINEMATIC VIOLENCE WILL BE CELEBRATED IN A WAY THAT WILL DISTURB SOME LISTENERS. Your TGTPTU hosts jump right into the Squib Season episode this week eager to discuss MONA LISA (1986), a neo-noir that'll get squibby towards its end (or its original, comedic intro with its criminally bad British accents attempted in a reenactment of a forgettable moment from the film confiscated and presently being used as evidence by Scotland Yard). Co-written and singly-directed by Neil Jordan six years before The Crying Game, the film stars Bob Hoskins (five years before Spielberg's Hook) as George, a role originally intended for Michael Caine (also in the film but in a significantly smaller and more sinister role as George's crime boss Mortwell) but rewritten for Hoskins to bring in his comedic background and general warmth, even when playing a working-class British bigot. Playing opposite Hoskins as the film's femme fatale is first-time screen actress Cathy Tyson as the high-end call girl Simone on the hunt for her missing friend and former coworker mixed up in drugs and the streetwalking and larger sex industry that affords them. Also starring Rubeus Hagrid from the Harry Potter movies (Robbie Coltrane) as Thomas (people in the film don't get last names unless they're of Caine's character's stature, in which case they don't need Christian names), George's best mate and collector of weird objects. The hosts do their darnedest not to bring up and discuss The Crying Game, instead focusing on amazing parts of the film at hand, including an elevated action elevator sequence and Hoskins' acting. Also, how Jordan working on a tight budget reworked the London landscape to create a mood and show a side of London not typically captured on film. And in perhaps an episode first, sometimes provisional host Ryan does research!!! and is wrong about a music fact!?! And then, before you know where you areYou're sayin' goodbye-Boy GeorgeTHEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gLetterboxd (follow us!):Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

Cara rugosa, nariz de porra, pelo rizado y gesto adusto. Un rostro habitualmente serio, tanto en la comedia como en el drama, y cuyos personajes tienen siempre ese toque de cinismo y sarcasmo que él ha convertido en su marca de fábrica. Bill Murray cumple 75 años y nosotros lo celebramos dándole un repaso a su carrera. Charlamos con el director de fotografía José Luis Alcaine, ganador del Goya en 5 ocasiones, que tiene una curiosa teoría sobre el Guernica de Picasso. La enfermera Ratched, aquella que hacía la vida imposible al personaje de Jack Nicholson en la película “Alguien voló sobre el nido del cuco” es la protagonista de nuestra sección “Esos tipos a los que nos encanta odiar” y en el serial de Bourbon dedicado al cine de aventuras tenemos esta semana un clásico de los años 70: “El hombre que pudo reinar” de John Huston, con unos geniales Michael Caine y Sean Connery.
Eric, Jeff, Styles, Sheek and Jadakiss got together in Yonkers to break down the 2010 science fiction action heist film written and directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Ken Watanabe, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Elliot Page, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, Tom Berenger, Dileep Rao and Michael Caine. We discussed the idea of reality, how this film deals with addiction, Leo's character's struggles vs. Harrison Ford's character's struggles in The Fugitive, who had the most stressful job, losing your passport, whether Christopher Nolan does shrooms, and of course, everyone's thoughts on one of the most controversial endings ever!!

This week's episode of the Empire Podcast might just go ahead, make your day, as Chris Hewitt (having recovered from a colleague-inflicted mischief) invites Helen O'Hara and James Dyer into the podbooth for a discussion of the best films directed by Clint Eastwood. Amazingly, The Rookie is given short shrift. Then, our intrepid trio take a look at the week's movie news, including the surprising return of Michael Caine, and review The Long Walk, Spinal Tap II: The Grand Finale, and Downton Abbey: The End Continues. Or is it Spinal Tap II: The End Continues, and Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale? Either way, it's a big episode for Downton fans, as Hugh Bonneville and Allen Leech bid farewell to the cultural juggernaut in the best way possible, by talking to Boyd Hilton. [1:04:33 - 1:16:31 approx] And Chris has a wonderful time talking tennis and more with Islands star Sam Riley, making a triumphant return to the podcast. [27:44 - 43:45 approx] Oh, and Noel Coward pops in for a little song, which is nice. Enjoy.
On this episode of Pockets, we discussed doctor visits or one in particular with Jennifer. We also talk about the movie Flawless with Michael Caine and Demi Moore and lots of other fun stuff. Plenty of giggles were had. This one's a goodie. Enjoy.

Tens of thousands of young people in Nepal push back hard when the government threatens to ban social media -- but our guest says what they're really fighting for -- is fundamental change. Israel's surprise attack on Hamas officials in Qatar surprises and outrages world leaders -- and terrifies a journalist, who was sheltering with his family a few hundred meters away.With more unhoused people living in encampments in Barrie, Ontario, the mayor declares a state of emergency -- and explains why he thinks that's the right call. Some people from Annapolis County, Nova Scotia were given the green light to return home today, after weeks of uncertainty caused by wildfires -- but one woman tells us the decision isn't that simple.He was in "Jaws: The Revenge", and he's also won 2 Oscars.

What's myth and what's fact in the story of Charles Manson? What were the true motives behind the murders and who was really involved? There are many books covering this topic, yet very few have broken through the 'official' tale told by the trial's prosecutors and the news media at the time. This book includes hundreds of hours of research into court and police documents, witness statements, media reports and interviews with those involved. This book examines the current theories surrounding the case and appraises their likelihood against a timeline of events and the words of Manson himself. The prosecution case promoted by Vincent, Bugliosi, the Process Church influence as endorsed by Ed Sanders and David McGowan, the robbery scenario as spoken of by Nikolas Shreck and William Scanlon Murphy and the possibility of MK Ultra mind control as discussed by Adam Gorightly are all examined and tested.How do Terry Melcher, Elvis Presley, the Beach Boys, Jane Fonda, the Mamas and the Papas, Michael Caine, Dean Martin, Angela Lansbury, Peter Sellers, Warren Beatty, Yul Brynner, Peter Falk, Cary Grant, Steve McQueen, Neil Young, Frank Zappa, Nancy Sinatra, Ronald Reagan and Debbie Harry fit into the tale? What Hollywood secrets did the industry, the police and the prosecution strive to keep hidden? Were the victims really chosen at random by a crazed cult of serial killers, high on a mix of LSD, Satanism and the music of the Beatles? Read on to uncover the secrets of the Manson family, their trial, the main players in the case and the murky world of Hollywood.The book contains 564 pages, 200,000+ words containing a complete history of the life of Charles Manson.A detailed examination of the Hinman, Shea, Tate and LaBianca murders, appraisal of all the most prominent theories surrounding the case, explanations of the coded confessions revealed in interviews with Manson.Stories of celebrity encounters, facts about Manson's relationship with the music industry, details of organised crime connections, faults with the prosecution's case, troubling indications about the motives and character of Vincent Bugliosi, examinations of further murders and other criminal activity possibly connected to Manson.Revelations about the main players involved in the case, embarrassing secrets of the Hollywood elite, suggestions of police ineptitude, signs of a cover-up, bizarre coincidences, strange occurrences, salacious gossip, radical political movements, riots, the Black Panthers, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, cults, religion, sex, drugs and murder.This book has been read, enjoyed, praised and promoted by friends of Charlies and members of ATWA. https://amzn.to/4naItmKBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
