POPULARITY
On the sixty- second episode of All the Film Things, film historian/ author/ lecturer Max Alvarez, Director of Communications for the Film Noir Foundation Anne Hockens, attorney Katherine Jakeway, Oscar- nominated writer Kim Krizan, and festival organizer Monique Madrid join me in paying tribute to and celebrating Marilyn Monroe for her 100th birthday!Marilyn Monroe is one of the most beloved, and certainly most famous, movie stars of all time through her classic, recognizable public image and beloved performances in cinema. Her story is one of extremes between her rough beginnings to being on top of the world as well as that global fame bringing her despair behind closed doors. Marilyn began in the industry as a model and, after a few years of acting starring in films like All About Eve and The Asphalt Jungle, Marilyn's breakthrough came in the vibrantly- colored noir film Niagara. From then on came some of her most treasured films like Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and The Seven Year Itch. Between those two films and How to Marry a Millionaire, Marilyn came to establish a particular image for herself with her blonde hair and whispery, seductive voice. At the turn of the decade, Marilyn started to seek out different roles again, just as she took on in the beginning of her career, in films like The Misfits and the film widely regarded as her best, Some Like It Hot. Since her passing in 1962, Marilyn has remained popular and deeply beloved due to the world's endless fascination with her, making her icon status nearly unattainable to achieve. But while many know her face, there are less who have seen the films that made her a star.“The Magic Hour” is Kim Krizan's virtual writing class accessible to people around the world who want to gain the inspiration to write and tell original stories.

My conversation with Kim, who happens to be a Marilyn expert, serves as sort of the base for the episode since it's wide- encompassing about Marilyn while Anne and I discuss one of Marilyn's greatest yet underrated films, Don't Bother to Knock. Max shares which director and actor he wished Marilyn could've worked with, Katherine points out the importance of considering the mental health of a star like Marilyn who is hounded by the press, and Monique fondly recalls being introduced to Marilyn's films as a child thanks to her mother.

On the sixtieth episode of All the Film Things, I had the pleasure of interviewing festival organizer Monique Madrid! Monique Madrid, who some of us regard as “the queen of Jacksonville”, is an integral figure in the city as the visionary behind the LOL Jax Film Festival. Her involvement in film began with working behind and in front of the screen on films made by the Jacksonville- based production company Argylle Forest Films. She has been an editor and producer for their previously released shorts such as “The Real Housemonsters of Florida”, their upcoming debut feature Let Me Be Corey as well as worked on other films made by Jax filmmakers such as “Extreme” and “Mandy's Voice”. Alongside her husband and previous ATFT guest Adam Madrid, she is the co- city producer for the 48 hour film project in Jacksonville and co- founder of the LOL JAX Film Festival, which has been named the “Best Film Festival” in Folio Weekly's Folio 500 for eight years in a row. In 2021, Monique was included in Jacksonville Business Journal's 40 under 40 and, two years later, the journal named Monique as one of the “Women of Influence” in the city. Aside from her work in film, she works with local organizations and schools including Don't Miss a Beat, Inc. and Jacksonville Arts and Music School, or JAMS for short. Next month, Monique will be awarded the Small Business of the Year Art Award from the Cultural Council of the Greater Jacksonville in recognition of LOL Jax. The 10th annual LOL JAX Film Festival will be held on August 1 and 2 in downtown Jacksonville and film submissions are officially now being accepted until June 30. LOL stands which stands for both laughing out loud and loving our locals, is a celebration of artists and small local businesses. Be sure to go to LOLJax.com to learn more about how to submit your film and take a look at festival highlights from previous years. Tickets are not yet available for purchase, but follow LOL Jax on Facebook and Instagram to stay updated on when ticket purchases are live and all things LOL Jax! This festival sells out fast so you don't want to wait to get your tickets!This is Monique's first appearance on ATFT! After knowing her husband Adam and hearing nothing but the loveliest remarks about her for nearly two years, I finally met Monique this past August at a Women in Film and Television (WIFT) event! I was so excited to finally meet her and, just as we were all leaving, I told her that I'd love to interview her. I have always admired her, not only because of her incredible accomplishments, but to see what she has done for the city of Jacksonville is deeply admirable and inspiring. This interview was the first time she and I really conversed and my already high expectations of her were somehow exceeded. I am blown away by Monique and this interview is undoubtedly one of the very best interviews on ATFT yet. This episode was recorded on April 2, 2026. In this episode, Monique shares her road to discovering which role she wanted to pursue in film, remaining connected to loved ones who have passed on through cinema, and why this year's LOL Jax Film Festival was almost the last. She also reveals which 2025 film she has already seen about 15 times, one of her favorite travel activities, and shares high remarks about three previous ATFT guests.

This week, TWT presents four more short interviews, aka "small talks", covering a variety of topics related to AAC and Assistive Technology! Before the interviews, Rachel talks about a contentious IEP she recently attended for a student she consults with. Rachel had some ideas about supporting literacy that she shared with the team, but the team was resistant to Rachel’s input as an SLP and didn’t seem interested in changing any goals. Chris shares about a situation early in his career where he was told SLPs “don’t do reading” - but those same people couldn’t say who was responsible for helping the student succeed. Chris then connects this to ASHA’s perspective that reading falls under the scope of practice for SLPs. Rachel touches on some of the mistakes that are often made when teaching a minimally verbal student to read, presumably because teachers don’t know how to support a student’s reading effectively if he or she can’t read out loud. This week's Small Talks are:

Laughing comes easily for this husband and wife creative team, who founded the LOL JAX FILM FESTIVAL in 2016 and more recently took over as Jacksonville city producers for the 48 Hour Film Project. But the work they're doing is serious business. Running film festivals, while both working full-time jobs, producing a vlog, and making time to be a couple, is hard work, but they wouldn't have it any other way. Although neither is a Jacksonville native, the couple met here and became high school sweethearts. They stopped by Scribbler's Corner at River of Grass to talk about living their best lives, and share their excitement about Jacksonville's active and growing film community.
