Thomas Devoe, a brash U.S. Army intelligence officer who specializes in field operations.Together, Kelly and Devoe uncover a plot involving a rogue Russian general and a vengeful Yugoslav diplomat named Dusan Gavrić. Gavrić plans to detonate a nuclear bomb in New York City as a twisted act of personal vengeance and a misguided attempt at political "peace."As they chase the warheads across Europe, facing betrayals and dangerous obstacles, Kelly's strategic thinking and Devoe's action-driven instincts clash but ultimately complement each other. Their pursuit culminates in a high-stakes showdown in Manhattan, where they must stop Gavrić before he detonates the bomb in a crowded area.

Quel plus grand et effroyable spectacle que la destruction du monde ? L'Apocalypse de Saint-Jean, écrit à la fin du 1ᵉʳ siècle après Jésus-Christ, ressemble à un script de superproduction hollywoodienne : « Le ciel se retira comme un livre que l'on roule ; et les rois de la terre, les grands du monde, et tous les hommes, esclaves ou libres, se cachèrent dans les cavernes parce que le grand jour de leur colère est arrivé, et qui pourra subsister ? » Le texte biblique inspire depuis des siècles nombre de représentations, et reste une source inépuisable pour l'art spectaculaire par excellence, le cinéma.Un cycle à la Cinémathèque française, adossé à une grande exposition à la BNF, explore la représentation de l'Apocalypse au cinéma.Nous recevons François Angelier, l'un des commissaires de l'exposition et expert associé au cycle de la Cinémathèque lors duquel sont projetés 25 longs métrages, notamment Deep Impact de Mimi Leder, Dr Folamour de Stanley Kubrick, la série des Mad Max de George Miller, ou encore Melancholia de Lars Von Trier.À l'affiche de notre cinéma également ce samedi 15 février 2025, nous reviendrons sur les polémiques qui plombent les chances d'Emilia Perez aux Oscars, et notamment les critiques négatives émises au Mexique (avec notre correspondante Gwendolina Duval).► Pauses musicales : System System de Voilààà et Lass, Loose control de Jafunk, Apocalypse de Cigarette after sex.

This week, we continue to collect members of the Ocean's gang like Infinity Stones, as we find Danny playing a convincing soldier and compelling leading man in a 90s geo-political thriller that feels like a total forgotbuster, despite starring two massive movie stars and launching DreamWorks as a studio. It's 1997's The Peacemaker, directed by Mimi Leder, and starring George Clooney, Nicole Kidman, Marcel Iureș, Aleksandr Baluev, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Holt McCallany, Goran Višnjić, and Michael Boatman. One of the Cloondog's early jumps from ER star to silverscreen leading man, this movie is also deeply tied to ER as a production. Clooney unquestionably has the juice however, and the movie's 90s thriller sensibilities -- while not as refined as some of its contemporaries -- still feels like something of a lost art, a type of movie we just don't get enough of these days. If you'd like to watch the movie before listening to our discussion, it is not available to stream in Canada but can be rented on YouTube and Cineplex. Other works discussed on this episode include The X-Files, Groundhog Day, Source Code, The X-Files: Fight The Future, The Blues Brothers, Trading Places, You've Got Mail, The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, The Incredible Hulk, The Avengers: Age of Ultron, Thelma, Mission: Impossible - Fallout, The Beekeeper, The Art of War, The Foreigner, Superman Returns, Strangers on a Train, Jerry Springer: Fights, Camera, Action, The House, Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, The Bourne Identity, Clear and Present Danger, Mission: Impossible, Batman & Robin, The Green Hornet, Deep Impact, Armageddon, Pay It Forward, On The Basis Of Sex, The Leftovers, The Morning Show, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit, Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, Three Kings, The Men Who Stare At Goats, 24, Burn After Reading, Michael Clayton, Out of Sight, Twisters and Legally Blonde. Next week, we're switching things up and going back to Hayley's new VHS stack to talk one of the all-time great westerns: 1992's Unforgiven, Clint Eastwood's deconstruction of the genre that made him famous and a worthy winner of Best Picture Oscar gold. Unforgiven is streaming on Crave in Canada and Max in the US. Until then, we'll see you at the movies!!

Cette semaine dans AMIES, un vrai clash en perspective! Car si Un Monde meilleur «a marqué l'enfance» d'Anaïs, ce n'est pas du tout le cas de Marie qui se sent «insultée et manipulée» par le film après le visionnage.Sorti en 2000 et réalisé par Mimi Leder, Un Monde meilleur raconte l'histoire d'un petit garçon de 11 ans qui va répandre la générosité autour de lui et changer la vie des gens grâce à un devoir d'école. Le film est un peu le bingo de ce qu'on considérerait aujourd'hui comme du Oscar bait («appât à Oscars» en français).Pourquoi Marie n'a-t-elle pas du tout accroché à Un Monde meilleur? Les arguments d'Anaïs l'ont-elle convaincue? Et surtout, se remettra-t-elle de la fin du film?Après le duel entre Anaïs la spooky et Marie la cheesy dans la saison précédente, nos deux amies unissent leurs forces pour s'attaquer au meilleur du pire du cinéma mondial. Elles vont mutuellement se faire découvrir des films qu'elles considèrent comme des chefs-d'œuvre, mais à propos desquels la critique n'est pas unanime. Alors, navets ou coups de génie?AMIES est un podcast d'Anaïs Bordages et Marie Telling produit par Slate Podcasts.Direction éditoriale: Christophe CarronProduction éditoriale, montage et réalisation: Aurélie RodriguesMusique: «Superhero», Samuel West | Pedigree CutsIllustration: Aurélie Rodrigues et Emma RazafimahefaSuivez Slate Podcasts sur Instagram et Facebook.

 The Oddjob Pod returns for another edition of the Action Movie Landfill. A periodic dive into the almost limitless mound of action films from the sell through era in the late twentieth, early twenty first century. For this episode it was down to Terry to choose and it's fair to say that he chose… poorly. Not for the first time Terry allowed his fond memories of a film from years gone by to cloud his judgement and selected the political action thriller from 1997: The Peacemaker. Starring Nicole Kidman and George Clooney, this big budget blockbuster was directed by Mimi Leder and reflects that post cold war, pre 911 spot where studio representations of US foreign policy was resolutely in denial of their place in the world. Watching back now it seems naïve. The films crude characterisations and dated tropes mean that it does not hold up to contemporary scrutiny and is best enjoyed with a time machine. Download the podcast here or you can listen to it on the player below. The Oddjob Pod is also available on Apple Podcasts,  Spotify and Amazon.

"The Morning Show," starring Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston, is Apple TV's flagship show this fall with its lightning-quick writing, superb acting and tense, plot-driven examinations of the cultural landscape. It is the brainchild of director and executive producer Leder, the latest project in her brilliant career. Season Three debuts September 13th, and brings in a new featured actor (Jon Hamm) and several gripping storylines. We talk about her growing up in New York and Los Angeles, her big breaks that got her and her talented pen into the industry, some of her mentors and the many obstacles she had to overcome, as a woman, to reach the success she has today. The wide-ranging conversation also includes our favorite films and television shows, best directors, actors, the studio system and, with the writers/actors strike, missing the camaraderie of the promotional tours for the show. We also talk about the many twists and turns of the Morning Show plot, how "legacy media" is a great prism for looking at the schisms in American politics, the threat of Big Tech and the interpersonal dramas that afflict everyone from the lowest to the highest pinnacles of society. Mimi's film "On the Basis of Sex" about the early career of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg also came in for discussion, as well as the connection to Ojai through "friend of the pod" Judith Hale Norris, the supervising attorney for the 10th District Court of Appeals, and the momentous shift of the Dobbs decision and its likely implications for years to come. We did not talk about bottlenose dolphin migrations, the Chinese Warring States period or the latest fashion-forward shoe designs. Check out "The Morning Show" below (the first episode is free). https://tv.apple.com/us/show/the-morning-show/umc.cmc.25tn3v8ku4b39tr6ccgb8nl6m?mttn3pid=Google%20AdWords&mttnagencyid=a5e&mttncc=US&mttnsiteid=143238&mttnsubad=OUS2019800_1-670311437945-c&mttnsubkw=122311402254__Hvgufltl_&mttnsubplmnt=_adext_

It's the end of the world again as Dave takes 1998's Deep impact off the shelf. Phil admits to never seeing it despite it being described as the "smart" Armageddon. To his surprise, he thought the movie offered something different and somewhat unique. As Phil sees it, Tea Leoni is the weakest link however Dave really connected to her family story and found her performance compelling. The movie tries to serve all characters well and ends up sagging a little under the weight but the story is delivered well by Mimi Leder and her cast.

Like a comet hurling towards Earth, Nate and Matt clash over Mimi Leder's 1998 disaster drama, "Deep Impact." Watch out for inexplicable car explosions!

Our Guest today is Wendy Crewson Wendy Crewson was the recipient of a star on Canada's Walk of Fame in 2015; and the Earle Grey Award, given to fewer than 32 collective recipients since 1986, in recognition by the ACCT and the Canadian Entertainment Industry, for Lifetime Achievement in Television. One of Canada's premier actresses, Wendy Crewson has garnered critical and popular acclaim, as well as multiple awards, for her extensive body of work in film and television. Her resume features more than 100 titles, including credits like: Sarah Polley's indie feature AWAY FROM HER; THE VOW, with Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum; the Winnie Mandela biopic WINNIE, alongside Jennifer Hudson and Terrance Howard; THE SANTA CLAUSE trilogy opposite Tim Allen; THE CLEARING, with Robert Redford; Eduardo Ponti's BETWEEN STRANGERS, with Sophia Loren; THE LAST BRICKMAKER IN AMERICA, with Sidney Poitier; BICENTENNIAL MAN with Robin Williams; THE SIXTH DAY with Arnold Schwarzenegger; and of course, her role as Harrison Ford's First Lady in AIR FORCE ONE. Throughout her illustrious career, Wendy has amassed more nominations and awards in Canada than any other actress for portraying real women. These are some of her most wellregarded roles and they include: Sue Rodriguez (who went all the way to The Supreme Court of Canada to fight Doctor Assisted suicide while fighting ALS); “Jane Doe” (who made legal history when she sued the police for negligence after being the fifth victim of a serial rapist and realizing that the police knew details and had done nothing to prevent further rapes); Lorraine Evenshen (who tells the story from her own perspective as the wife of popular CFL star Terry Evanshen, who lost his memory after waking up from a coma caused by a car crash); and finally, Louise Arbour (who as the Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal Tribunal for both the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and Rwanda, made history with the first indictment of a sitting head of state, for war crimes, the first conviction for genocide and the first to recognize sexual crimes as crimes against humanity). Wendy starred in five seasons of CTV's hit medical drama SAVING HOPE, for which she won Best Actress in a Featured Supporting Role at the 2013 CSAs. Wendy was also in the critically acclaimed, Oscar-nominated film, ROOM with Brie Larson; and appeared opposite Ellen Page in Patricia Rozema's INTO THE FOREST. Wendy was recently seen in the films KODACHROME, with Ed Harris and Jason Sudeikis; DEATH WISH with Bruce Willis.; and director Mimi Leder's timely feature, ON THE BASIS OF SEX. On the small screen, Wendy recently starred on CBS's hit medical drama, GOOD SAM; CBC's popular series FRANKIE DRAKE; in addition to the Hallmark series, WHEN HOPE CALLS; while also shooting the second season of DEPARTURE for Peacock/Global; and her recurring role on TITANS for HBO Max. Before that, she starred in the CTV/ION series THE DETAIL, for which she was nominated for a 2019 CSA. She also recurred in the AMC series THE SON, opposite Pierce Brosnan; and in THE OCTOBER FACTION for Netflix. Wendy continues to be as busy as ever. She joined the cast of CBC's hit procedural, PRETTY HARD CASES for its final season, while also shooting in the highly anticipated series GRAY, opposite Patricia Clarkson. Next, she appears in the independent films BACKSPOT, from director D.W. Waterson; and SAM opposite Elliot Page. We dived right in and started our conversation with the all-consuming fear of ‘coming out' --and we ended – appropriately, with her sense of belonging in a community and industry that she is so passionate about.

This week Zach and Sloane unwrap 1998's science fiction end-of-the-world disaster film: Deep Impact. The film was released the same summer as Armageddon which seems like bad planning. It was a big summer for disaster and a big summer for jersey cotton sheets. Zach accuses Sloane of loving jersey cotton sheets and she defends her honor by insisting she does not enjoy being shrink wrapped and cocooned by sheets in a bag. Other topics of discussion involve end-of-the-word planning, slow apocalypses, and booger couches. It'll all make sense when you listen to that and more on this week's episode of Mummy Dearest podcast!Support the show

In this episode of the show we are going on a mission into space to stop a comet from hitting our planet... while following a paranoid conspiracy thriller... and watching Elijah Wood get married way too young. That is we are talking Deep Impact, a Mimi Leder-directed less talked about competitor to the 1998 Armageddon! Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about injecting drama into disaster movies, injecting disasters into dramas, the idea of stretching the narrative too thin, Bobby Duvall as an absolute scene-stealer and much more!

Welcome back friends, we're still existing in 1997. This week, we take a look at the globetrotting Mimi Leder joint The Peacemaker. Unfortunately, John Cena is nowhere to be found—or maybe we just can't see him. This week, Dalton gives us a very brief rundown on the Yugoslav wars, we examine the narrative idea of creating sympathetic villains, the professional dynamics based around gender that arise in the movie are also discussed, and much more hits the analysis table. So, grab your fatigues and fall in line as we take The Peacemaker into conversation.

It is a dream of many best-selling authors to become screenwriters as a means of turning their books into movies. In this episode, you will get a glimpse of the reverse scenario- when a very successful Hollywood screenwriter channels his voice into books, with his latest novel YOU MIGHT FEEL A LITTLE PRICK, a murder mystery with subtle messages about the flaws of our health system.Reuben Leder comes from Hollywood royalty- his sisters Mimi Leder being a DGA and Emmy winning director, and Gerardine Leder a successful casting director.He is a multi-episode writer behind top series  MAGNUM P.I. and has sold several of his specs to Steven Spielberg, Lawrence Bender,  and Robert Evans.In this inspiring podcast, we discuss what it is like being in development hell on movie projects,  his own personal hell in the health system while tending to his wife before she passed away,  the advice he has been giving to his daughter, also a screenwriter, and working on another personal novel to honor the journey of his parents surviving World War 2.

Much@s de vosotr@s recordaréis la gran guerra cinematográfica de meteoritos de 1998. Si no sabéis de lo que hablo, sois demasiado jóvenes. Ese año se enfrentaron en taquilla la superlativa "Armageddon" de Michael Bay y este intento más modesto pero, para quien esto escribe, más clásico y honesto.

It seems to happen every few years: two movies with strikingly similar stories get released in the same year. Typically, one emerges as the "winner," the film that sticks in the public's consciousness, while one fades away into pop culture obscurity. What determines these "winners" and "losers" in the world of dueling movies? We take a look at two twin pairs: Big Trouble in Little China (1986, dir. John Carpenter) and The Golden Child (1986, dir. Michael Ritchie); and Armageddon (1998, dir. Michael Bay) and Deep Impact (1998, dir. Mimi Leder) to see if we can figure out the why of it all.

Ring in the 50 episode milestone with one of the best examples of a twin film there is, Deep Impact and Armageddon. Deep Impact(1998) Directed by Mimi Leder. Starring Tea Leoni, Morgan Freeman, Elijah Wood and LeeLee Sobieski. Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_SiSA-M2rc Armageddon(1998) Directed by Michael Bay.

Mary McCormack is one of today's boldest and most versatile actresses, continually challenging herself with roles that often defy Hollywood standards and bring to light the complex lives of ordinary women. The LA Times says, “McCormack has a kind of 20th century sass, a lively impertinence you find in classic Hollywood comedians like Barbara Stanwyck, Irene Dunne and Rosalind Russell.” She has shown her immense talent working in film, television and on stage, and has tackled roles ranging from slapstick comedy to intense drama. Tony-nominated for her role in Broadway's “Boeing Boeing” opposite Mark Rylance, she is also widely known for her four seasons as a regular cast member of “The West Wing" (two SAG Award nominations), as the lead of USA's critically acclaimed “In Plain Sight,” and for her role opposite Howard Stern in Private Parts.  McCormack's recent television work includes starring roles in the ABC series “The Kids Are Alright,” the AMC series “Loaded,” the NBC comedy series “Welcome To The Family” as well as arcs on such shows as HBO's “The Newsroom,” “Scandal” (ABC), Gus van Sant's award-winning miniseries “When We Rise” (ABC), “House of Lies” (Showtime) and the “Will & Grace” reboot (NBC). McCormack will also appear in the new Hulu Blumhouse anthology series “Treehouse.” McCormack can also be seen in the HBO Max feature Unpregnant. In non-scripted, McCormack produces the hit game show “25 Words or Less” alongside Lisa Kudrow and Dan Bucatinsky which was just renewed for a second season. Next up, McCormack can be seen staring in the STARZ series “Heels.”  McCormack returned to the Broadway stage in 2008 to star in “Boeing Boeing” alongside Christine Baranski, Mark Rylance and Bradley Whitford. Marc Camoletti's classic sixties comedy won the Tony for Best Revival and earned McCormack a 2008 Tony nomination for “Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Play.” Additional stage credits include a highly successful run opposite Alan Cumming as Sally Bowles in the Sam Mendes and Rob Marshall-directed Broadway production of “Cabaret” for the Roundabout Theatre Company, as well as the acclaimed London stage production of Neil LaBute's play “Bash,” the David Warren-directed productions of “My Marriage To Earnest Borgnine” and Jon Robin Baitz's “A Fair Country.”  McCormack breakout performance, opposite Howard Stern in Private Parts, won her universal critical acclaim. McCormack's additional television and feature credits include: Aaron Sorkin's NBC smash hit “The West Wing,” a recurring role on “ER,” Right At Your Door, the Stephen King thriller 1408, Christopher Guests' “For Your Consideration,” the Steven Soderbergh and George Clooney HBO political series “K-Street,” as Justine Appleton in Steve Bochco's “Murder One,” as well as the USA Network miniseries “Traffic,” directed by Stephen Hopkins (24). In addition, McCormack has appeared in varied roles in such films as Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star opposite David Spade; K-PAX opposite Jeff Bridges and Kevin Spacey; Full Frontal, directed by Steven Soderbergh and opposite David Duchovny and Catherine Keener; High Heels & Low Lifes with Minnie Driver; Mystery, Alaska, written by David E. Kelley and starring Russell Crowe; Other Voices, with Stockard Channing and Campbell Scott; The Broken Hearts Club, opposite John Mahoney and Timothy Olyphant; The Big Tease opposite Craig Ferguson; Gun Shy with Sandra Bullock and Liam Neeson; the Clint Eastwood film, True Crime; Mimi Leder's Deep Impact; The Alarmist, opposite Stanley Tucci; Father's Day and Miracle on 34th Street. She also appeared in Michael G. Cooney's The Men and the feature film Drone with Sean Bean as well as Amazon's period drama American Girl: Mary Ellen.  Born in Plainfield, New Jersey, McCormack is a graduate of Trinity College and resides with her family in Los Angeles.

Chris and Isaac brace for Deep Impact. Does the film successfully explore humanity's resilience in the face of peril? Or is it more of a TV movie we catch and secretly root for the comet?  This week, your hosts finish telling you everything there is to know about 1998's two biggest disaster films, discuss Mimi Leder's varied directing career, and finally reveal Elijah Wood's path to the Shire. Love it? Hate it? Share your own take on Twitter (@pickyourtake), Facebook, YouTube, or by email, at pickyourtakepod@gmail.com.

This week, the government has completely failed us... and so, all we can do is sink into some 90s nostalgia and brace for a Deep Impact.  Deep Impact is a 1998 American science-fiction disaster film directed by Mimi Leder, produced by Stephen Spielberg, and starring Robert Duvall, Téa Leoni, Elijah Wood, and Morgan Freeman.  The film depicts the attempts to prepare for and destroy a 7-mile wide comet set to collide with Earth and cause a mass extinction. The film was released the same summer as a similarly themed film, Armageddon (Starring Bruce Willis and Ben Affleck), which fared better at the box office, while astronomers described Deep Impact as being far more scientifically accurate.   Support the Show & get access to exclusive episodes at https://www.patreon.com./DisasterArtists   Find us at all these other places: https://linktr.ee/DisasterArtists

Pour ce nouvel épisode consacré à l'Apocalypse dans la culture et pour notre épisode, dans la science-fiction. J'ai sollicité Lloyd du podcast « C'est plus que de la SF » pour nous en parler, et il a choisi un film, dont le titre est plus qu'évocateur : « Armageddon ».

Bonfire night, November 5th 2015, 9.30pm. An agent fires off an email. An author is accused of plagiarism. His new book lies ready to be pulped. In the first of a new series of Sideways, Matthew Syed asks why we're doomed to be unoriginal and why it hurts so much to be, well, not that special. In 1998, Hollywood directors Matthew Bay and Mimi Leder went head to head with suspiciously similar disaster movies - Armageddon and Deep Impact. Allegations of late-night spying flew around. But could there have just been something in the air? Matthew reveals that, four years earlier, fragments of the Shoemaker-Levy 9 Comet smashed into Jupiter and right into the American consciousness. This is the thing... As Matthew discovers, our brains are wired for unoriginality, we evolve as a collective brain, absorbing our shared cultural cues and looking for what has worked in the past. But if that's the norm, why do we feel so disappointed when our ideas seem unoriginal, when someone else beats us to it? And is there a way out of this - to rekindle our originality? With author Ian Leslie, Kristen Lopez, TV editor for Indiewire and pop culture critic, Dr Michael Muthukrishna, Associate Professor of Economic Psychology at the London School of Economics and Nick Groom, Professor of Literature in English, University of Macau. Presenter: Matthew Syed Producer/Series Editor: Katherine Godfrey Executive Producer: Max O'Brien Music, Sound Design and Mix: Nicholas Alexander Research and Development: Gavin Haynes and Madeleine Parr Theme Music: Seventy Times Seven by Ioana Selaru A Novel production for BBC Radio 4

Though her most recent triumph is the highly-praised Netflix miniseries The Queen's Gambit, Michelle Tesoro has built a career working with A-list showrunners and directors, within both film and television. From mastering the art of the dialog scene with the HBO series In Treatment, to her collaborations with luminaries like Michael Mann, David Fincher, Ava DuVernay, Mimi Leder and David Milch, she has plenty of stories to tell. Tesero managed to navigate the exact career she wanted and has plenty of wisdom to impart, like why sometimes saying no to projects is even more important than saying yes. We hope you enjoy!

Az Armageddon vs. Deep Impact adásunkból néhány érdekességet kivágtunk, de nem akartuk, hogy lemaradjatok róluk. Összevetjük Michael Bay és Mimi Leder izgibb rendezői megoldásait, de nem kíméljük a forgatókönyvírók teljesítményét sem, ezek mellett az öt percbe belefér még az is, hogy leleplezzünk egy-két abszurd kulisszatitkot.  

A Vakfolt podcast nyári szünetében egy önálló minisorozattal jelenetkezünk, amely a Vakfolt versus címet kapta. Kéthetenként, hat epizódon keresztül eresztünk egymásnak két-két olyan filmet, amelyek egymáshoz gyanúsan közeli időben jelentek meg, és gyanúsan hasonló a premisszájuk. Az első adásban az efféle ikerfilmek talán legismertebb példájával, az 1998-ban mindössze két hónap különbséggel megjelent Armageddonnal és a Deep Impacttel foglalkozunk. Megnézzük, mik azok a dolgok, amelyek összekötik ezt a két filmet – már azon kívül, hogy mindkettő egy világot elpusztító égitestről szól -, és miért mégis ég és föld a kettő. Melyik film állja meg jobban ma a helyét? Michael Bay gépzsíros macsizmója vagy Mimi Leder ízléses érzékenysége? Mi a jobb, a realisztikus unalom vagy az szórakoztató butaság? Adásunkból megtudhatjátok, melyik műsorvezető szenved az űrdemenciától, hányszor lehet a “hibátlan” jelzőt használni egy Michael Bay-filmre, és kit játszana Charlton Heston a Marvel filmes univerzumában. Az adásból kivágott extrákat itt hallgathatjátok meg. Természetesen, mivel a podcast címe Vakfolt versus, ezért győztest is igyekszünk választani a két film közül: mi is szavaztunk, de rajtatok is múlik, az e heti ikrek közül melyik diadalmaskodik.

Hosts Mary and Blake have an important, and informative discussion with extremely special guest and superbly talented, Mimi Leder - the director of The Leftovers finale, "The Prodigal Son Returns." In this episode, you'll learn all about: how Mimi Leder came aboard The Leftovers, working closely with Damon Lindelof, demystifying the show, how she directed the infamous stoning scene in "Gladys," how to make tonal decisions in directing, Wayne's power, the emotionally charged Loved Ones scene with Nora, Kevin's wish, feral dogs, Ann Dowd, Laurie and Tom's future, and the many choices and difficulties behind the apocalyptic final act of the finale.
