Book Vs. Movie: The Day the Earth Stood StillThe 1940 Short Story Vs. the 1951 AdaptationThe Day the Earth Stood Still is a classic sci-fi story. The iconic 1951 film was based on Harry Bates' short story "Farewell to the Master." Both versions share a similar premise—an alien visitor and his robot arrive on Earth, but they diverge significantly in tone and message. In Bates' 1940 story, Klaatu and his robot Gnut arrive on Earth, but Klaatu is quickly killed. The focus then shifts to Gnut, who, in a twist ending, is revealed to be the true master, not Klaatu. This philosophical narrative explores the limits of human perception, the ambiguity of power, and intelligence beyond human understanding. The film adapts the story into a Cold War parable. Klaatu, more of a Christ-like figure, comes with a warning: Earth must abandon violence and nuclear weapons or face destruction by an interplanetary alliance. His robot, Gort, serves as an enforcer of this message, not the master. The film delivers a clear moral about peace and diplomacy, reflecting the political fears of its time. Which version did we (the Margos) prefer? Have a listen to find out. In this ep, the Margos discuss:The settings for both storiesThe differences between the original short story and the 1951 adaptation. The Movie Cast: Michael Rennie (Klaatu,) Patricia Neal (Helen Benson,) Hugh Marlowe (Tom Stevens,) Sam Jaffe (Professor Barnhardt,) Billy Gray (Bobby Benson,) Frances Bavier (Mrs. Barley) and Lock Martin as Gort. Clips used:“Klaatu's speech” The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951 trailer)“Gort arrives on Earth”“Kalatu Barada Nikto”Bernard Herrmann's soundtrack for The Day the Earth Stood Still Book Vs.

This week Brendan chats with Dr. Michael Rennie about the IISD Experimental Lakes Area – or ELA for short.  The ELA is one of the most influential freshwater research facilities in North America, using whole lake experiments to unravel some of the mysterious connections hidden in our natural world. Brendan and Dr. Rennie discuss the history of the ELA and how whole lake experiments help us understand ecology by revealing the indirect connections in ecosystems.  They also discuss some of the ongoing projects in ELA that the Community Ecology & Energetics Lab is currently working on, such as his work to reintroduce extirpated freshwater shrimp into a lake and some new and exciting work on microplastics.   Dr. Rennie is currently recruiting for a PhD position at his lab at Lakehead. Check it out here: CEE Lab PhD opportunity.   Main point: "Take a few minutes and stop and think about that next decision or opinion".

EPISODE 27 - “Dona Drake: What Price Fame” - 03/18/2024 Latina star DONA DRAKE, who signed a contract with Paramount Pictures in 1941, was many things — singer, dancer, actress, bandleader, musician — but one thing she wasn't, as it turned out, was Latin! While Paramount promoted their new discovery as a spitfire Latina born in Mexico City, Drake was, in fact, an African-American woman from Florida who pretended to be Latin, going so far as to learn Spanish fluently, in order to have a better chance at a Hollywood career. Listen to this fascinating story of one woman who went undercover just so she wouldn't have to play the maid.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Biography of Dona Drake (Paramount Contact Player), September 1942, Paramount Studios; “Dona Drake Tells Marriage,” September 9, 1944, by Hedda Hopper, The Los Angeles Times; “Daughter Born to Dona Drake,” August 8, 1951, The Hollywood Citizen-News; www.swingcityradio,com; www.glamourgirlsofthesilverscreen.com; IMDBPro.com; Wikipedia.com; Movies Mentioned:  Strike Me Pink (1936), starring Eddie Cantor, Ethel Merman, Sally Eilers, and William Frawley; Aloma Of The South Seas (1941), starring Dorothy Lamour, Jon Hall; Louisiana Purchase (1941), starring Bob Hope, Vera Zorina, and Victor Moore; Road to Morocco (1942), starring Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, and Dorothy Lamour; Star Spangled Rhythm (1942), starring Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Dorothy Lamour, Fred MacMurray, Paulette Goddard, Dick Powell, Eddie Bracken, Alan Ladd, Mary Martin, Betty Hutton, Marjorie Reynolds, and Veronica Lake; Salute For Three (1943), starring Macdonald Carey and Betty Jane Rhodes; Let's Face It (1943), staring Bob Hope, Betty Hutton, and Eve Arden;  Hot Rhythm (1944), starring Robert Lowery, Tim Ryan, and Irene Ryan; Without Reservations (1946), starring John Wayne, Claudette Colbert, and Don DeFoe; Dangerous Millions (1946), starring Kent Taylor; Another Part of The Forest (1948), starring Fredric March, Dan Duryea, Edmond O'Brien, Ann Blyth, Florence Eldridge, John Dall, and Betsy Blair; So This Is New York (1948), starring Henry Morgan, Rudy Vallee, and Virginia Grey; Beyond The Forest (1949), starring Bette Davis, Joseph Cotten, David Brian, Ruth Roman; The Girl From Jones Beach (1949), starring Virginia Mayo, Ronald Reagan, and Eddie Bracken; Kansas City Confidential (1952), starring John Payne, Colleen Gray, and Preston Foster; The Bandits of Corsica (1953), starring Richard Greene, Paula Raymond, Raymond Burr; Son Of Belle Star (1953), starring Keith Larsen, Peggie Castle, and Regis Toomey; Down Laredo Way (1953) starring Rex Allen and Slim Pickens; Princess of the Nile (1954), starring Debra Paget, Jeffrey Hunter, and Michael Rennie; --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.

Midway through Season Two, Julie Newmar appeared along with Michael Rennie as guest villains Catwoman and Sandman in The Sandman Cometh. But originally, this script by Ellis St. Joseph featured only the Sandman, with Robert Morely picked to play the role. This time, we get into how the teamup came about as we begin a look at St. Joseph's original draft script. Also, Below the Staff Music takes a stab at a jazz version of Hefti's Batman theme, Adam West and Burt Ward cameo on the SImpsons, and we read your mail on the Bat Bible and Buck Henry's rejection of camp!

Australian firefighters are battling intense bushfires in Queensland and New South Wales, where the conditions are so severe they are focusing on saving lives, rather than properties. Authorities confirmed on Tuesday that more than 50 homes, and 30 sheds, had been destroyed in the area around the Queensland town of Tara - about 300-kilometres inland from Brisbane. Australia's prime minister Anthony Albanese visited another fire-affected area - Bundaberg, on the coast further north - saying the government was expecting about 42,000 claims as a result of the fires so far, and more crews would be coming in to help. ABC Brisbane reporter Michael Rennie spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Count von Nudo and Schmutt P. Eddler do the time warp back to the musical that started a cult phenomenon exactly 50 years ago - The Rocky Horror (Picture) Show. We celebrate the opening song "Science fiction/Double Feature", which name-checks some of the greatest science fiction and horror films of the 1930s, 40s, 50s and 60s. We have been able to include six of the 11 films mentioned in this theme week. The other five, such as King Kong (1933) and The Invisible Man (1933) belong to big Hollywood studios, making it more difficult for us to get the rights to show them (but we will keep trying).   Tony Sokol over at DenofGeek.com has a great overview of each song and film reference, from which we have stolen, sorry, quoted extensively. Do read his original article for more context and in-depth insights. It is remarkable how well Richard O'Brien knew his B-movies, given that there was no Internet or IMDb back in the days, but that is a sign of true geek fandom. Respect! The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) -  “Michael Rennie was ill the day the Earth stood still, but he told us where we stand.” A science fiction film with a message for earth to get its s#!t together, by the great director Robert Wise.  “Klaatu barada nikto”.Flash Gordon (1936) -  “And Flash Gordon was there in silver underwear”. An episodic cinema serial with Buster Crabbe fighting Ming the Merciless. Familiar from television re-runs and of course the more famous 1980 re-make.  It Came From Outer Space (1953) -  “Then at a deadly pace it came from outer space.” An alien spaceship crash lands in the Arizona desert and people start acting strange. More Cold War paranoia, by director Jack Warner. Originally in 3D but shown here in boring 2D. Doctor X (1932) -  “Dr X will build a creature.” Doctor Xavier doesn't actually build a creature (Frank N Further does tho), in this pre-code color film by Michael Curtiz, who later directed Bogart again in Casablanca (1942).   “See androids fightingBrad and JanetAnne Francis stars inForbidden Planet…”Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohAt the late nightDouble Feature picture show”The Day of the Triffids (1963) - “And I really got hot when I saw Janette Scott fight a Triffid that spits poison and kills.” Or as Tony Sokol put it,  "Vegetarians eat vegetables. Humanitarians, like Doctor X, eat humans. Triffids are vegetables that eat humans, vegetarian or not." So don't look up at meteor showers, or you'll wake up all "28 Days Later." Freddie Francis co-directs. Curse of the Demon aka Night of the Demon (1957) - “Dana Andrews said prunes, gave him the runes, and passing them used lots of skills.” Jacques Tourneur, of Cat People (1942) and I Walked with a Zombie (1943) fame, directs this British demonic chiller. A special shout-out to RKO Radio Pictures. We have our biggest Spotify playlist EVER, with over 100 songs.

Listen to find out! Thanks so much to John and Mark for talking with us, and thanks to you for tuning in to this special presentation! And don’t forget, on Wednesday’s we watch Rocky!✨

Dr. Michael Rennie, a strength and conditioning coach at the Sydney Swans football club discusses the art and science of helping the top Australian Rules Football players recover from injury. Dr. Rennie describes the value of connecting injured athletes with role models, the importance of "variety" and options in the rehabilitation program, and integrating athlete preferences into the recovery regimen. He also emphasizes the merits of a team-approach to recovery in which injured athletes are encouraged to ask questions and where constant feedback and communication occurs between athletes and sport medicine providers.

We're back at it, with another pop culture classic episode!! This is the second of three pop culture classic episodes, and probably, we all agree, that it is the best of all three movies that we took a look back onto. Again, we are staying in the year of 1951! We're of course talking about the original, The Day The Earth Stood Still! Keanu Reeves might be amazing, but we're talking about the original Klaatu played by Michael Rennie! The Day The Earth Stood Still, tells the story of the alien, Klaatu, and his "giant" robot, GORT, visiting Earth. Of course, this is not just a normal visit to a different planet, as they come with a message. Earthlings now have the power of nuclear weapons, and this is something that could threaten the rest of the universe. Because of this, Klaatu and GORT come to Earth to tell their leaders, change your ways, or you will be decimated! This movie is STILL relevant for what is going on in the world, still, today.  SUBSCRIBE: Apple Podcasts | Android |  Spotify | Pandora | RSS Tell us what you think!Leave us a voicemail at 970-573-6148Send us feedback and/or MP3's to outsidethelongbox@gmail.comFollow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Youtube!Support the podcast on Patreon!Credit - Doyle Daniels, Juan Muro, Gabe Llanas, Tim Huskey

“Klaatu barada nikto!” En 1951 el mundo convulsionaba en un contexto histórico con los Estados Unidos como epicentro. En plena guerra de Corea, con los primeros síntomas de la guerra fría, la carrera armamentística en la línea de salida y el Comunismo como máximo enemigo. Apenas cinco años después de Hiroshima y Nagasaki, las dos superpotencias se afanaban en construir más y más armas letales. El odioso Senador Joseph Raymond McCarthy empezaba su vergonzante caza de brujas contra la industria de Hollywood, hasta aquel momento, un oasis de talentos y mentes libres. La energía atómica era algo nuevo e inquietante en los 50. En ese caldo de cultivo la Ciencia Ficción de Serie B paría películas panfletarias con alienígenas invasores y destructivos. Robert Wise consigue que Ultimátum a la Tierra sea una película humanista, revistiendo a la Ciencia Ficción de honorabilidad, de respeto. La película capta exactamente qué tipo de sociedad había en los años 50, sentimos ese clima de paranoia y represión, pero con un mensaje conciliador, totalmente disonante. The Day the Earth Stood Still contiene un potente mensaje pacifista, de entendimiento; una crítica soterrada contra los ejércitos, contra el género humano, y sobre todo, contra sus dirigentes, sus gobiernos… Robert Wise desarrolla un gran guión de Edmund H. North, para contar la llegada a nuestro planeta de Klaatu y Gort, un humanoide que viene a dar la ultima oportunidad a la tierra y una autómata capaz de destruir todo ante la menor agresión… Ultimátum a la tierra se ha convertido en un test de Rorschach, contiene múltiples interpretaciones y visiones del mundo, todas reales, todas vigentes. Nuestros gobiernos actuales no distan mucho del retrato que nos plantea Wise, la humanidad tampoco, un clásico imprescindible de la ciencia ficción que ha influenciado todo el cine que ha venido después,. Un referente en múltiples aspectos, desde el estilo sosegado y reflexivo de Wise a esa extraordinaria banda sonora de Bernard Herman, una partitura pionera, usando ese curioso y extravagante instrumento musical electrónico llamado Theremin, bautizado originalmente como “Eterofono” que ya será para siempre el sonido y la atmósfera de la Ciencia Ficción. Un gran reparto con el desconocido Michael Rennie encarnando a Klaatu, una clara alegoría cristiana con este Sr. Carpenter que sufre las mismas penalidades que Jesucristo, con el cual comparte misión y enseñanzas. La protagonista femenina es la gran Helen Benson, perfecta como esa mujer fuerte y decidida que cría a su hijo sola, y comprende la importancia del mensaje de Klaatu. El chico, Billy Gray es otro gran acierto de la película, con momentos de inocencia e intimidad grandiosos con el hombre del espacio; o ese profesor con aires de Einstein , interpretado por Sam Jaffe. Para la historia del cine queda la figura de Gort, el imponente robot con el poder de decidir sobre la vida y la muerte. Una autentica obra maestra que nos obliga a reflexionar constantemente sobre la humanidad, capaz de lo mejor y lo terrible…..al tiempo. Esta noche hacemos señales lumínicas a Gort desde la Torre de Radiopolis, Jose Miguel Moreno, Raúl Gallego, Zacarías Cotán, Elio Cubiles y Gervi Navio. Gervasio Navío Flores

In this episode of the science fiction podcast 'The ACE: Atomic Cinema Experiment,' we discuss the classic 50s classic The Day the Earth Stood Still. The film is Directed by Robert Wise and stars Michael Rennie, Patricia Neal & Hugh Marlowe. patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mildfuzztv twitter: https://twitter.com/Mild_Fuzz facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mildfuzznetwork Audio version: UK Merch store: https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk/mild-fuzz-tv/ US Merch store: https://shop.spreadshirt.com/mild-fuzz-tv-us

One of our favorite movies, “The Day The Earth Stood Still” tells a cautionary tale in a time of the Cold War and rapidly advancing technology.  Expertly directed by Robert Wise and starring the perfectly cast Michael Rennie, Patricia Neal, Hugh Marlow, Sam Jaffe and Billy Gray, this is a film with multiple layers of meaning and nuance. It’s a straight-forward sci-fi tale with a flying saucer, a superior alien race, and an invulnerable all powerful robot. It’s also a tale of the possibility of humankind's redemption in the face of a higher power. Or is it a tale of the origin of the human race on Earth. Or is it… well, you’ll see. There’s so much to discuss in this film. And let’s not forget the music, in what may be Bernard Herrmann’s best score, but which certainly is one of his best, he utilizes two Theramins for the first time in film and the score sets a standard for sci-fi scores that will be followed for decades after. We’re considering a Bernard Herrmann festival. So keep your eye out for that soon.  We truly love this film and hopefully that comes through in the show. Enjoy!

Jerrica and Nancy dive into a topic that is constantly revisited: First Contact. From 50’s camp to modern spectaculars, aliens have visited earth for the first time over and over again. Whether we’re receiving a fatherly pat on the head with Jodie Foster, or bearing the brunt of a total dressing-down from Michael Rennie, the … Continue reading Episode 2.07: First Contact (or, welcome to earth, here’s your slide whistle)

Michael Rennie shares a five-minute sermon on what fixing our eyes on God looks like and how Christians will benefit from doing it.

What do you get when you combine Mario Bava, Tudor Gates, the Woolner Brothers and Antonio Margheriti? You get NAKED...YOU DIE! This is a project that started out as a Woolner production to be directed by Bava but ended up eventually being made by Margheriti. According to Tim Lucas the Gates script remained intact but he faults the film for not being as well crafted a film as Bava would have directed. He may have a point but the joys of this film shine through regardless of any possible 'what ifs'. John Hudson joins me again to dig into this Margheriti thriller - or is it a giallo? There certainly are black gloves and a number of beautiful young ladies meet an early death. There is a semi-effective police investigation and an ersatz Nancy Drew sneaking around trying to solve the murders taking place on the gorgeous, sun dappled campus of an all girl's college. There are half a dozen possible killers with a multitude of potential motives. There are secretive sexual liaisons, hidden homosexual relationships, leering criminal habits, odd exercise regimens and even some strange vanities that point toward likely guilt. So, the film has a number of the classic elements that would make this a giallo, I guess. But which of these clues are more than simply suspicious and which ones will lead to the serial murderer in the school? If you've ever watched an Italian mystery you know that just following the breadcrumbs might not get you anywhere but this one plays fair. Mostly. Mr. Hudson and I lounge poolside with the young girls of St. Hilda's College, skulk around the Bughouse with Professor Andre, shake our fingers at the local Peeping Tom and fall in love with the wonderful character of Jill as she uses her new walkie-talkies to put herself in danger - or try to solve the crimes. Michael Rennie may be the cop in charge but it's Jill that eavesdrops her way into our hearts! We do take a couple of short unrelated side roads during this episode and I do apologize for the derision I heap on Marky Mark. I promise not to do that again! If you have any comments about the show or suggestions for future Margheriti films to cover we can be reached at thebloodypit@gmail.com or on the Facebook page. Thank you very much for listening to the show! And don't stand so close to me.

The notorious European criminal Sandman is in town - and he’s teamed up with Catwoman! But that’s not how writer Ellis St. Joseph had envisioned this episode, which he based on the classic film “The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.” He had written a Catwoman-free script, and Michael Rennie wasn’t in it, either! Tim and Paul are joined by cartoonist and podcaster Joe Dator to discuss the crumbling of St. Joseph’s vision; how Batman’s inability to envision switching costumes anywhere other than along the Batpoles creates logistical nightmares — and is also perfect for this iteration of the character; J. Pauline Spaghetti, Getty Images, and a certain Bat-related video in their library; and some Bat-gossip! ALSO: The Kinks’ version of the Batman theme, and your mail!
