In the '90s, there was no music video director in hip-hop bigger than Hype Williams. And he concentrated all his visual powers on his first (and for now, only) feature film, BELLY (1998): a gangster film that looked—and sounded—like no other, especially its iconic opening heist sequence, set to Soul II Soul's "Back to Life." Rico talks with Soul's songsmith Simon Law about the '80s UK club scene that birthed that megahit track and learns why this once-maligned movie has become required viewing for hip-hop nation. Other guests include the film's co-story writer Anthony Bodden and hip-hop critic Panama Jackson.Our audio documentary podcast returns with a sequel to our popular 2023 season that dives deep into the grooves of classic movie “needle drops.” Titled “Needle on the Record, Side Two,” in each episode host Rico Gagliano tells the story of a film that fused music and image to make magic—and sometimes, changed popular culture.MY FATHER'S SHADOW is now streaming on MUBI almost globally.To stream some of the films we've covered on the podcast, check out the collection Featured on the MUBI Podcast.

Em 7 de março de 2004, o cineasta Jorge Furtado fez o que ele fazia quase todas as manhãs: pegou pra ler a edição da Folha de S.Paulo daquele dia. A maior foto da capa mostrava um quadro pendurado numa parede com a imagem de uma mulher sentada de braços cruzados. O Jorge reconheceu a obra logo de cara: era a “Mulher em Branco”, do Picasso. A matéria dizia que aquele “desenho de Pablo Picasso” tinha sido encontrado quase por acaso numa sala do INSS, em Brasília. O que era bem estranho… considerando que a “Mulher em Branco” pertence ao Metropolitan Museum de Nova York. Assim começou a saga do Jorge Furtado com aquele que ficou conhecido como “o Picasso do INSS”. Anos depois, a história inspirou a produção do documentário “O Mercado de Notícias”. E agora, em 2026, ela inspirou a repórter Bia Guimarães a embarcar numa espécie de caça ao tesouro: afinal, de onde veio e que fim teve o “Picasso do INSS”?

Emma is a high achieving, middle class girl from West London. She seems destined for a successful career in banking and a comfortable British life. Until she makes a decision that will come to define her. In 2001 Emma marries Bashar al-Assad - the now infamous dictator of Syria.In the early days, people inside and out of Syria dared to hope. Alongside his beautiful, progressive wife, Bashar promised to modernise the country.But when the Arab Spring reached Syria in 2011, Bashar's regime showed itself for what it really was: a brutal force, willing to capture and kill ordinary Syrians demanding change. And in all the years that a war raged on, Asma stands by her husband. She seemingly ignored the desperate pleas to stop her husband from killing his own people. But what did she really know about the atrocities her husband's government was carrying out? And what choices did she really have? Some people allege that she actually assisted the regime and cashed in on the war, that she herself is a war criminal. Others say she tried to run away but was trapped, held hostage by a regime who threatened her life and her children. So, who is the real Emma?We call her Emma is a 6 part original series from Tortoise Investigates and The Observer.To binge listen to all episodes today, ad-free, subscribe to The Observer and use the code AUDIO50 to get 50% off your annual subscription.You'll get access to:This series and all our podcasts before anyone elseAd-free listeningPremium newslettersPuzzles from the inventors of the cryptic crosswordExclusive offers from our partners including Mubi and iescapeTickets to join Observer events in our newsroom or onlineOr subscribe to Observer+ on Apple Podcasts or Spotify to listen to all our podcasts, including this one, without any ads.Reporter - Chloe HadjimatheouProducer - Gary MarshallSound design - Karla PatellaPodcast artwork - Lola Williams & Eliza BournerExecutive producers - Jasper Corbett and Basia Cummings Hosted on Acast.

Alex Braverman is a filmmaker who has directed and produced acclaimed documentaries, including the 2023 film THANK YOU VERY MUCH, a fascinating portrait of the great Andy Kaufman. I first discovered Alex's work through THANK YOU VERY MUCH, which is currently on MUBI, and immediately wanted to talk to him about Kaufman, documentary filmmaking, and the strange blurred line between performance, truth, comedy, and reality. We talked about Alex's early work as a documentary cameraman, including MAKING MARINES, the making of THANK YOU VERY MUCH, the Safdie brothers coming on as producers, Andy Kaufman's obsession with confusing and challenging audiences, and why documentary filmmaking is often truly built in the edit. We also discussed STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT: UNLOCKING THE TRUTH, which Alex produced, the current state of documentary filmmaking, and the importance of cutting material that does not serve the story. Alex also shares two of his favorite movie scenes from THE HEARTBREAK KID and Bennett Miller's THE CRUISE.

Shot on a shoestring in six wild weeks, CHUNGKING EXPRESS is the movie that put legendary Hong Kong filmmaker Wong Kar Wai on the international map—along with his star, pop diva Faye Wong...and her Cantonese cover of The Cranberries's hit "Dreams."In this classic episode form our archives, host Rico Gagliano learns how the song, the director, and the singer all came together to capture Hong Kong at a moment of anxiety and hope—and how the tune still unites people in karaoke bars across Asia.Featuring Cranberries guitarist Noel Hogan, Hong Kong-born indiepop star Emma-Lee Moss (aka Emmy The Great), "Chungking" score co-composer Roel A.

We went around the world for this Out Takes, featuring some of the latest queer films on offer this May from Chile, Germany and the UK . With the 2026 HSBC German Film Festival back on in Melbourne until May 28, we had the opportunity to speak with director Faraz Shariat about their film ‘Prosecution’ which is one of the featured Australian Premieres in this year’s festival. Winner of the Audience Award at the 2026 Berlinale, ‘Prosecution’ is described an engrossing tale of good versus evil that cleverly combines legal drama and thriller for a powerful and urgent story about the realities of Germany's judicial system. Our exclusive interview with Faraz Shariat saw us cover a wide range of topics related to the film and its exploration of queerness for the main character. We also reviewed ‘The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo‘, an intense and at times fantastical drama written and directed by Diego Céspedes that is streaming now on Mubi. The film unfolds in the early 1980’s in Chile in a dusty mining town nestled in the Atacama Desert, where eleven-year-old Lidia is the only child raised in a household of queer performers working at a local cantina. With his widely acclaimed feature debut, Céspedes emerges as a distinctive cinematic voice, crafting a poetic vision of love and resilience that also reflects the marginalisation and violence faced by queer communities today. Our final review for this program was ‘Mother Mary’, directed by David Lowery and featuring an incredible all female ensemble cast including Michaela Coel, Anne Hathaway, Hunter Schafer, Kaia Gerber and FKA Twigs, the film explores the complicated professional and personal relationship between iconic pop star Mother Mary (Anne Hathaway) who reunites with her estranged best friend and former costume designer Sam Anselm (Michaela Coel) on the eve of her comeback performance. ‘Mother Mary’ is in cinemas now and features original music written and produced by Charli XCX, FKA Twigs and Jack Antonoff and sang by Anne Hathaway. The post German Film Festival with special guest Faraz Shariat and reviews of The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo and Mother Mary appeared first on Out Takes.

In the first installment of a semi-regular series, Matt and Jordan take a break from reviewing a single film in order to interrogate an entire streaming platform: the industry juggernaut, Netflix. They dissect it across five crucial categories—library size, playback interface, reliability, originals, and price. The goal? Nothing less than determining the greatest service of all time. Then for Rec Seg, Jordan attempts to track down a forgotten, star-studded 2020 musical drama buried deep in the Netflix sub-basement, while Matt stakes a claim for Adam Sandler's finest 2020s streaming achievement. Plus, they answer a listener mailbag question with two exceptional, music-centric recommendations currently streaming on Mubi. (Timecodes/chapters may not be precise with ads.)

On today's show, we dive into one of the most famous and well-regarded American movies ever made: Rocky! I chat with friend of the show and MUBI podcast host Rico Gagliano about the legacy of Rocky, moments we all remember, concise screenwriting, an undeniable score, and Sylvester Stallone's career at large. We talk about our individual experiences with the movie and its sequels, how it won Best Picture, and how it became the highest-grossing movie of 1976, as well as consider the lineage of sports movie franchises.

Another classic episode about great music in a great movie: DONNIE DARKO. Richard Kelly's genre-busting rookie feature was one of the first cult hits of the 21st century... and it took the music of '80s band Tears for Fears along for the ride.Host Rico Gagliano tells this twisty tale with the help of Kelly, star Jena Malone (THE HUNGER GAMES), and the film's composer Michael Andrews—whose stripped-down cover of Tears's "Mad World" became maybe the most unlikely smash hit in UK history.SOMETHING WILD is now streaming on MUBI in the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, France and Latin America.

While we polish up some brand-new episodes all about iconic movie needle-drops... we're resurfacing some classic episodes that tackled the same topic! Starting with this one, about the time Stanley Kubrick decided to score his sci-fi spectacular 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY with classical tracks — something he did against the advice of just about everybody, and to the detriment of at least two composers' mental and physical health. Guests include Kubrick's longtime executive producer Jan Harlan.SHOWGIRLS is now streaming on MUBI in the US, Canada, Australia and Latin America.

Watch This Episode On YouTubeIf you're looking to understand the business of film, let me suggest listening to Ben Fritz, who covers entertainment for the Wall Street Journal and is my guest for the podcast.Why? Well, for me, it's two things. First of all, if you listen to his astonishing documentary podcast called "With Great Power: The Rise of Superhero Cinema", you get to hear why he's such a successful journalist. An executive will offer a throwaway line, and Ben simply asks: why? You get something much closer to the truth from a one syllable question than one might expect.It happens throughout this podcast series from 2023, and it is a true masterclass on how interviews should be conducted.And two -- he's just straight with people. In this episode, we talk about an article he recently co-wrote on MUBI, the streaming service, and the money they've lost over the past year. In almost any other situation, the company doesn't participate, the article is branded a hit piece, and the audience is left wondering about the veracity of the story.Instead, MUBI's CEO is quoted in the article, which tells me the respect he gives the co-authors.Or maybe it's three: just listen to the insight Ben provides in this episode. If you go by the notion that the business offers an explanation of the films that show up on our screens, there's no better person than Ben Fritz.In this episode, Ben and I talk about:his preference for hosting a podcast or being a guest on one;his ability to tell a story evenly without looking for gotcha moments, which distinguishes his journalism;how he got started in filmmaking;what he expects out of the summer festival market;what he's learned between covering filmmaking to AI and back to filmmaking;the future of AI in filmmaking;the "$50 Movie Ticket Has Arrived" article and what it means for theaters;what that means for indie filmmakers;the behind the scenes story of his article, "How VC Money and Israel Outrage Derailed a Hot Hollywood Startup" about MUBI;what MUBI's business model portends for the industry;how production companies make money in such a competitive environment -- branding;why Silicon Valley doesn't invest more in Hollywood;what's next for him and how things have changed since 2019;Ben's Indie Film Highlights: PINK WALL (2019) dir. by Tom Cullen; COW (2021) dir. by Andrea ArnoldMemorable Quotes:"I try to make clear to people I'm not gonna pull any punches, but I'm also not here to try to get a gotcha moment.""I feel like it's becoming a lot like everything in the American economy, which is, it's a have and have-nots world."" What I realized quickly is if you understand the business, then you understand why you get the movies and TV shows that you get, right?"" So you could see more movies getting made, more original movies getting made, more people who don't have access to Disney and Netflix being able to raise a little bit of money and make an interesting movie on their own. So we could see this blossoming of creativity that maybe would rival what we saw in the 1970s."" The danger, which some people in Hollywood think, is the more movies become a premium experience where you spend a lot of money, the more it becomes something people think of as I only do this two or three times a year," " I think the I'm gonna get a specialty label or specialty company to buy it and put it in theaters is...that's like winning the lottery at this point."" The one promising thing in this world of indie film theatrical I've seen recently is you've seen some YouTubers put movies into theaters and find a niche audience."" I was able to connect to a source who was just close to Mubi, who was able to give me a lot of inside information on really what happened."" Mubi is a solid business. That's why Sequoia invested in them. It is a healthy business. They just made this huge mistake last year.""My teenage son knows what A24 is, and that name means something to him.""Sequoia's investment in Mubi was shocking to a lot of people. This is so outside the box for what they normally do. And the only other prominent example of VC investment in entertainment is A24, which definitely has some VC investment in it."Links:Ben Fritz's WSJ PageBen Fritz's Website

This week we're excited to present a conversation from this year's edition of New Directors/New Films with Agon director Giulio Bertelli. Agon is now streaming exclusively on MUBI. This conversation was moderated by New Directors/New Films selection committee member Tyler Wilson. In Agon, three athletes—including one played by a real-life gold medalist in women's judo—prepare for a fictional Olympiad in this elemental study of athletic discipline from first-time feature director Giulio Bertelli. Bertelli shows how the athletes' preparation is dominated by technologies, from arthroscopic surgery footage to simulators to video games, suggesting the dehumanization of vulnerable bodies inside the global behemoth that is modern organized sport.

How'd a 1971 country-pop anthem about West Virginia... inspire a 1995 anime classic about teens in Tokyo? We kick off a season about great movie needle-drops with the tale of WHISPER OF THE HEART — the anime that helped drive John Denver's "Take Me Home Country Roads" into Japanese culture. Guests include the song's co-writer Bill Danoff, plus rare interviews with Studio Ghibli cofounder Toshio Suzuki and his daughter Mamiko — the movie's lyricist. The audio documentary podcast MUBI Podcast returns with a sequel to our super-popular season diving deep into the grooves of classic movie "needle drops." Titled NEEDLE ON THE RECORD - SIDE TWO, in each episode host Rico Gagliano tells the story of a film that fused music and image to make magic — and sometimes, change popular culture. Guests include director Gurinder Chadha and musician Bally Sagoo on BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM's bhangra bangers, and movie star Jack O'Connell on THIS IS ENGLAND, the ska-fueled drama that introduced him to audiences.YUKI'S SUN is now streaming almost globally as a part of the Drawn to Life: Animated Films collection on MUBI.

It's spring break, but we'd never leave you entirely here at Breakfast All Day. We stockpiled a few goodies for you while Christy's off skiing, including a Documentary Tuesday with two very different films: MARC BY SOFIA. Sofia Coppola explores the life and career of her friend of 30-plus years, fashion designer Marc Jacobs, in this intimate and fascinating documentary. If you like process and '90s nostalgia, this one's for you. In theaters. MY UNDESIRABLE FRIENDS: PART 1- LAST AIR IN MOSCOW. This was on both of our top-10 lists last year, so we're thrilled that it's now available for you to watch, as well. Julia Loktev's 5 1/2-hour doc follows a group of independent Russian TV journalists as Putin is invading Ukraine. They continue doing their jobs as they find themselves increasingly in danger. Streaming on MUBI. LITTLE DARLINGS: Was It Great, or Were You 8?: It's our favorite game, where we revisit movies from our childhood to determine whether they truly were great, or we just remember them fondly. This time it was Christy's turn, and she chose "Little Darlings," a film that seemed so racy to her in 1980. Tatum O'Neal and Kristy McNichol star as summer campers from opposite ends of the economic spectrum competing to see who can lose her virginity first. Armand Assante, Matt Dillon and a very young Cynthia Nixon co-star. Play along and let us know what you think! Thanks for sticking with us. We'll be back to a more normal schedule next week, including a LIVE spoiler chat about THE DRAMA. Join us at our YouTube channel at Noon Pacific time on Tuesday, April 14. Hope to see you then.

Irán es un tema que ocupa todas las agendas y las portadas de noticias. Pero pocas veces se está hablando de la densidad que existe en la historia de esta nación. En este episodio, nos sumergimos en la profundidad de Irán, una civilización milenaria y sofisticada que trasciende las simplificaciones de los noticieros para revelarse como un pueblo con una inmensa tradición cultural, sabio y lleno de contrastes geográficos. Desde las raíces del zoroastrismo y la influencia de los aqueménidas hasta la complejidad del Islam chiíta, exploramos cómo esta "matriz de civilización" ha moldeado su identidad frente a las intervenciones de las potencias occidentales y la lucha por el control del petróleo. A través de un recorrido que abarca desde el golpe de Estado contra Mossadegh hasta las situación de 2026, también nos detenemos en la historia reciente de Irán y analizamos la repetición de los errores históricos, los pésimos precedentes de la "guerra preventiva" y la urgencia de rescatar el derecho internacional humanitario como la única brújula ética frente al abismo de la guerra.

Buenas, hoy nuestro relato es personal y además con una sorpresa: ¡Es nuestro primer capítulo hecho videopodcast!. Les contamos un viaje que hicimos a Surikí, un lugar mágico ubicado en el corazón del Urabá para conocer la historia de Enilda y su familia; un relato donde la tierra no es solo una herencia, sino un tejido de memoria y perdón. Tras el asesinato de su padre, Samuel, y años de desplazamiento, Enilda y su hermanos transformaron el dolor en lo que ella llama 'tecnología emocional': una fuerza capaz de reunir a veintidós hermanos, rescatar a uno de ellos de la guerra y sentarse frente a los victimarios para humanizar la tragedia. Desde la Reserva Surikí, donde se oye el rugido del jaguar, la selva custodia el pasado y el bullerengue es plegaria, descubrimos cómo una sociedad herida puede sanar a través de la belleza, la biodiversidad y la voluntad inquebrantable de no heredar el odio.
