Podcasts about neo noir

Sweet Smell of Success (1957) is one of the most visually ruthless films Hollywood ever made — and one that doesn't show up in the conversation as often as it should. We dig into James Wong Howe's New York City cinematography, the Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis dynamic, and what the Library of Congress saw in it when they added it to the National Film Registry.   Since 1989, the National Film Registry has selected 25 films each year that are deemed "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant". In each episode, Mike Natale (Yahoo!) and Tom Lorenzo (Men's Journal) bring on a special guest to take a look at one of the films from the registry, to get to the heart of why these films matter.  

We're having a great time exploring the Neo Noir subgenre, so this week we dive in AMERICAN GIGOLO. In 1980 Paul Schrader (TAXI DRIVER) delivers a brooding crime drama starring Richard Gere and Lauren Hutton which established Gere as a leading man.  It tells the story of a high end male escort, murder, kinky sex and stylish visuals. If you want to drop us a line, hit us up on the NECROPHONE 908-913-0782. Intro:                   “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro:                “Call Me” – Blondie

Thus week, we have another one that has been under consideration for a long time. 52 PICKUP is a grimy epic directed by John Frankenheimer and stars veteran actors Roy Scheider and Ann Margret. Released in 1986, this film flew mostly under the radar and garnered a split opinion from Siskel and Ebert back in the day mostly over the purported brutality and sleaziness of the film. This one slots nicely into our Neo Noir project.   Intro:                   “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro:                “In My Dreams” – Dokken

We're back with another Neo Noir episode this week.  We cover the Coen Brothers THE MAN WHO WASN'T THERE,  from 2001. The episode comes on the heels of the excellent Criterion release that includes new extras and a making-of documentary. Intro:                    “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro:                 “If You Really Don't Love Me” - Interpol        

Mike and Ben Buckingham take a look at Exposure 36, the 2022 film written and directed by Mackenzie G. Mauro. Charles Oudo stars as Cam, a photographer spending the last three days on Earth selling drugs and wandering the streets of New York City, encountering a colorful cast of characters along the way.The apocalypse here is background noise rather than spectacle — a quiet, meditative film that doubles as something of a Rorschach test, with different viewers latching onto entirely different aspects of the story. Mike and Ben dig into the episodic, wandering narrative, the film's mysterious blue figures, its use of photography as a distancing mechanism, and the way the story shifts from meditative sci-fi into neo-noir thriller territory before it's all over. Mauro joins the show to discuss the film.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

"'I'm not a violent person. But this guy... I would kill him with a hammer. I'd smash his whole head with a hammer."Welcome to the tenth episode of our ongoing series: Fascism On Film. Each episode of this series, the Holmes Brothers look and review a film that has to do with fascism. During the episodes, the brothers look and see how the aspects and portrayal of fascism shown in the film relate to current and/or past events.On this Fascism on Film episode, the Holmes Brothers look at and discuss the Oscar nominated film from director Kleber Mendonça Filho: The Secret Agent. Released in 2025. This year at the 98th Annual Academy Awards, the film was nominated for four Oscars. One of the nominations was for Wagner Moura in the Best Actor category. Wagner Moura plays Armando who is using the name Marcelo as a cover. Set in 1977 during a time of mischief and political turmoil in Brazil under military dictatorship, Armando travels to Recife during the carnival holiday. His son Fernando is there, living with Armando's late wife Fátima's family. He is former professor and is trying to escape and flee the country. In order to not face any persecution for what happened years before the events of the film. The Secret Agent is a blend of so many different styles and tones. At it's heart is a Neo-Noir-ish historical political thriller, but it does seamlessly shift into bizarre but compelling territories. A sophisticated film made for grown ups and is shot and told in an unconventional way. We hope you enjoy this episode and stay tuned for more episodes of this Fascism On Film series.Be sure to check out our Monument Valley Film on our YouTube Channel.Anders's screenwriter work can also be seen at work in the horror, car chase thriller Delivery Run, co-written with & directed by Joey Palmroos.

Devil in a Blue Dress (1995): Denzel Washington's most underrated performance. Directed by Carl Franklin, based on Walter Mosley's novel. Easy Rawlins, a Black WWII veteran in 1948 Los Angeles, takes a job finding a missing white woman. Simple task becomes a labyrinth of violence, corruption, and impossible choices. This week on Black on Black Cinema, we look back on one of Denzel's lesser known classics.This should have launched a franchise. Walter Mosley wrote 14 Easy Rawlins books. Denzel was perfect in the role. Don Cheadle's Mouse was a scene stealer. Carl Franklin's direction was a excellent visual take on the times and brought the book to life.Why it matters: Denzel plays Easy as morally complex—not hero, not villain, just a Black man trying to survive. Don Cheadle's breakout as Mouse (chaotic, violent, loyal). Carl Franklin directs through the Black gaze. 1948 LA shown as a minefield for Black veterans. Themes: survival in immoral systems, respectability politics, racial passing.This is a forgotten masterpiece. We break down why Devil in a Blue Dress deserves reconsideration.New episodes every other week.Subscribe: Spreaker, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube#DevilInABlueDress #DenzelWashingtonBlack on Black Cinema is a long-running podcast featuring in-depth Black movie reviews and frank conversations that matter to the Black community.

In unserer Reihe "Deutsches Kino ist [doch] geil!" stellen wir euch jeden Monat einen Film vor, der uns ganz besonders begeistert oder inspiriert hat. Im März ist das der in Brüssel gedrehte Gangsterfilm "Der Tod wird kommen". Dazu haben wir einen Gast: Meisterregisseur Christoph Hochhäusler liefert diesmal einen eiskalt-präzisen Neo-Noir mit einer grandiosen Entdeckung in der Hauptrolle. Denn wer nach Sophie Verbeecks Auftritt als Profikillerin noch sagt, dass es keine guten deutschen Genrefilme gibt, dem können wir dann auch nicht mehr helfen.

We have been talking about doing this one for a while. The 1981 neo-noir NIGHTHAWKS features Sylvester Stallone on the heels of Rocky I and II as well, a post-Empire Strikes Back Billy Dee Williams and the US film debut of Rutger Hauer. It's a grimy journey through old NYC as an international task force pursues a maniacal terrorist.   Intro:                   “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro:                “Slowride”– Foghat

Glenn Powell (Top Gun Maverick, Twisters, Anyone But You) plays Beckett Redfellow, the apparent eventual heir of a multi-billion dollar fortune from the Long Island-based Redfellow clan.....only he's the eighth in line after his late mother was pushed out of the family right before he was born.  So inspired by the sudden reappearance of Julia (Margaret Qualley) a seductive socialist he has had a crush on since childhood, he decides to embark on a unique mission to move up closer to that inheritance by murdering everyone else in the Redfellow clan one-by-one.  The Redfellow family members who are his targets are played by Ed Harris, Zach Woods, Bill Camp, and Topher Grace among others.  Directed by John Patton Ford (Emily the Criminal), let's find out exactly HOW Beckett lives up to the title of this film. Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send 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/

Belated but better late than never: Ticket Stubs officially kicks off 2026 with a double feature of icy, unnerving thrillers. This time around, we pair Otto Preminger's paranoid vanishing act Bunny Lake Is Missing (1965) with David Fincher's bleak, meticulous adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011). Across decades and continents, both films ask the same quietly terrifying question: what happens when no one believes you? Join us as we unravel questions of identity, credibility, obsession, and the cold machinery of institutions that would rather look away than look closer. Before the mystery deepens, our Blue Plate Special returns with the usual cinematic smorgasbord. We share thoughts on new releases Send Help and Crime 101, take time to remember the lives and careers of Catherine O'Hara and Bud Cort, and hear Levi's early-stage reflections on diving into David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest. We also offer what are almost certainly already-outdated predictions for Super Bowl 60—because what's a new year without at least one confidently incorrect take? Whether you're here for missing children, hackers with dragons tattooed on their backs, or just the comfortable chaos of our opening chatter, we're glad to be starting 2026 with you. As always, please like, subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and wherever else you listen! Got thoughts or questions? Email us at huffmanbrothersproductions@gmail.com.

Wann habt ihr das letzte Mal über Mad Foxes - Feuer auf Räder (1981) oder Killing Blue (1988) nachgedacht? Ganz ehrlich, mit Blick auf den kuriosen Neo-Noir mit Armin Müller-Stahl und einer Handvoll amerikanisches B-Stars würde ich euch keinen Vorwurf daraus machen, falls ihr dies längere Zeit nicht getan habt. Anders mein lieber Gast Markus Köhler, der nicht nur mit viel Ehrgeiz eine Lanze für den Kottan in Berlin bricht, sondern auch mit viel Ausdauer an meiner Seite den spanisch-schweizerischen Exploitationer rund um eine gewaltgeile Biker-Gang durchleidet.

Prepare-se para entrar em um clássico subversivo do cinema! Rafael Arinelli recebe Isabel Wittmann e Leandro Luz para conversar sobre Ligadas pelo Desejo (Bound), a estreia arrebatadora das irmãs Wachowski.Lançado em 1996, o filme mistura thriller de assalto, máfia e erotismo em uma narrativa ousada e provocadora. A trama acompanha Corky (Gina Gershon), uma ex-presidiária, e Violet (Jennifer Tilly), a namorada de um mafioso violento, que se apaixonam e bolam um plano arriscado para roubar milhões da máfia.No papo sobre Ligadas pelo Desejo, exploramos como as Wachowskis reinventaram o neo-noir, desconstruíram a figura da femme fatale e entregaram um final radicalmente feliz para duas protagonistas lésbicas, algo raríssimo na época. Também debatemos a linguagem visual do filme, a potência política do desejo feminino, a importância da consultoria de Suzy Bright nas cenas de sexo e até leituras que enxergam a obra como um “filme trans”.Além disso, discutimos o figurino, os contrastes visuais entre os personagens, as atuações memoráveis de Gina Gershon e Jennifer Tilly e o legado de Ligadas pelo Desejo como um marco do cinema queer.Um episódio cheio de análise, paixão e descobertas sobre um filme que segue atual, ousado e inspirador quase 30 anos depois de seu lançamento.

In this week's episode of Drinks and a Movie, we're heading into the shadowy, hard-boiled streets of Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez's 2005 neo-noir masterpiece, Sin City. We break down the film's bold visual style, interweaving storylines, and unforgettable characters while sipping on something just as bold—Maker's Mark newest wood finishing series “The Keepers Release”. 

On this episode, Jeff takes Eric Dearth on a drive through the neon-lit noctural world of filmmaker Michael Mann's Los Angeles to discuss charismatic hitmen, sleek cinematography, great soundtracks, and a Tom Cruise villain we can't help but love.

John Cassavetes may be known for his raw, improvisational indie dramas, but with Gloria (1980), he delivered something entirely different—a gritty urban thriller with a heart, starring the incomparable Gena Rowlands who plays the titular Gloria, a tough, no-nonsense woman with mob ties who suddenly finds herself the reluctant guardian of a young boy targeted by gangsters after his family's brutal murder. Armed with nothing but attitude and a pistol, Gloria hauls the kid through the hostile streets of New York City, dodging bullets, hitmen, and her own complicated past.Mike is joined by returning guests Judith Mayne and Andrew Rausch to explore the film's unconventional blend of gangster tropes, maternal instinct, and Cassavetes's offbeat sensibilities. We dig into Rowlands's powerhouse performance, the film's strange place in Cassavetes's career, and its legacy as a cult favorite that paved the way for countless “reluctant protector” thrillers.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

With only their third feature film (following Blood Simple & Raising Arizona), The Coen Brothers (Joel & Ethan) delivered one of the most unique crime dramas of its era...or any era.  This neo-noir takes place during the Prohibition Era in an unidentified American city which is currently enmeshed in an ongoing war between two rival criminal organizations, one lead by Leo (Albert Finney) and the other lead by Johnny Caspar (Jon Polito).  Leo's main advisor and most trusted lieutenant is Tom (Gabriel Byrne) whose fears and machinations are at the core of this story.  And through Tom, we get to encounter a variety of colorful characters including Verna (Marcia Gay Harden), The Dane (JE Freeman), Bernie (John Turturro), Mink (Steve Buscemi) and so many others who are each on one side of this burgeoning conflict.  However the story is not what stands out most about this enduring cult classic....it's the inventive camerawork, bravura performances, gorgeous production design, and endlessly quotable dialogue!  So just in time for St. Patrick's Day, let's find out exactly what the rumpus is....  Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
