In honor of the late Rob Reiner we are looking at The Story of Us, the 74th highest-grossing movie of the year, finishing just ahead of earlier entry Blast from the Past. Opening #2 behind Fight Club on October 15th and going on to gross $59 million worldwide on a $50 million dollar budget. Starring Bruce Willis, Michelle Pfeiffer, Reiner himself, Rita Wilson, Julie Hagerty, Paul Reiser, and Tim Matheson, The Story of Us is one of Reiner's worst-reviewed movies, who, after an unbelievable run of movies in the late 80s and early 90s started running into trouble in the late 90s and early 2000s with the likes of this, Rumor Has It, and the aggressively sentimental and fluffy The Bucket List. Is The Story of Us as bad as critics said? Or does it belong alongside When Harry Met Sally, Reiner's romcom masterpiece that it goes so far out its way to evoke? We welcome Slate's Nitish Pahwa to discuss marriage, casting, bad writing, unnecessary monologues, and the greatness of Rob Reiner. Nitish is on Bluesky @nitishpahwa.com

Bihar में बहुत बड़ा खेल हो गया | Prashant Kishore, Nitish, Shah | Diwali Bonanza | Harsh Kumar

The Mahagathbandhan or the grand alliance of the opposition parties in Bihar has announced RJD leader and former Deputy CM Tejashwi Yadav as its Chief Ministerial face, while Mukesh Sahani is the Deputy CM face for the polls that will begin on November 6. This has come as a snub to the criticism over discrepancies in the alliance’s seat-sharing drama, where parties from the same camp have been seen fighting each other in a handful of seats. In contrast, the NDA has still not announced any leader — and Nitish Kumar’s hopes of another term are now hanging in the balance. So what is happening in Bihar ahead of the elections, and what is Nitish’s future?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

By Adam Turteltaub It's a complex world, we all know, and we all try to simplify it and our lives, at least from time to time. Nitish Upadhyaya, Director-Behavioral Insights at Ropes & Gray's R&G Insights Lab and podcaster, wants compliance teams to appreciate complexity and, if not embrace it, at least understand how to work with it. For him this journey started many years ago with the recognition that disincentives don't always work. He wanted to understand why. This led him to an understanding of complexity, which explores the connections between people and systems and how nonlinear and unpredictable things can be. Appreciating that knot of connections is important for compliance teams, he argues, since the nature of the job involves affecting individual behavior and culture. He outlines several principles that compliance teams should follow: Move away from the idea that you can map everything. Context matters. Understand the human dynamics and stories. The only real rule in a complex system is it will have unintended consequences. When dealing with a complex system, think of the direction you want, not just the end point. It's about managing energy in the system and following natural contours Anomalies are helpful. Outliers can be your next risk or innovation. Map constraints, the things that connect or limit people, such as fear of retaliation or cultural issues, And when it comes to a root cause analysis, dig until you find not just the root, but the several roots that likely underlie it. Listen in to learn more about approaching and harnessing complexity. Listen now

As Yahya Khan's crackdown in East Pakistan sparks a refugee crisis and a guerilla insurgency, the neighboring nation of India, led by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, must decide how to respond. Meanwhile, President Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger pursue secret talks with Communist China. In Madison Square Garden, musicians George Harrison and Ravi Shankar organize a massive charity concert for the people of Bangladesh.  SOURCES: Bass, Gary K.

On March 25th, 1971, President Yahya Khan launches Operation Searchlight in East Pakistan, a brutal military crackdown intended to snuff out Bengali separatism and restore West Pakistani authority. Meanwhile, an American diplomat in Dacca named Archer Blood begins reporting and documenting the slaughter, hoping to convince his government to step in and restrain Yahya. In Washington, D.C., President Richard Nixon and his national security advisor Henry Kissinger weigh the political costs of intervening in the atrocities, while secretly planning a groundbreaking outreach to Communist China.  SOURCES: Bass, Gary K.

In the wake of the deadly Bhola Cyclone, 50 million Pakistanis go to the polls on December 7th, 1970 and cast their votes in a national election, which yields unexpected and destabilizing results. As the emergent factions fight for control of Pakistan's nascent democracy, the political process slowly disintegrates and the gulf between East and West Pakistan becomes irreconcilable.

On this week's show, the panel is first joined by Slate business and culture writer Nitish Pahwa to discuss Monkey Man, Dev Patel's dazzling but muddled directorial debut. The ultra-violent action flick stars Patel as Kid, a young man who works his way into a secret brothel for the super rich, hell-bent on finding the police chief who murdered his mother and exacting his revenge. It's clearly a political statement of a film, rife with references to real-world controversies and corrupt political, religious, and pedagogical practices (all of which Nitish covers in his piece for Slate, “Monkey Man Has a Bold New Vision”). Then, the three jump into Ripley, a new eight-part Netflix series based on Patricia Highsmith's master novel, The Talented Mr. Ripley, starring 47-year-old Andrew “Hot Priest” Scott as the titular seductive psychopath. Directed by Steven Zaillian (The Night Of, Schindler's List, All the King's Men) and with cinematography by Robert Elswith (Boogie Nights, There Will Be Blood, Good Night, and Good Luck), the series is shot in spectacular black-and-white and co-stars Dakota Fanning as Marge Sherwood and Johnny Flynn as Dickie Greenleaf. Finally, Julia Louis-Dreyfus (of Veep, Saturday Night Live, and Seinfeld fame, obviously) has a podcast, Wiser Than Me, which just entered its second season. On it, she interviews iconic older women like Jane Fonda, Carol Burnett, Bonnie Raitt, and Sally Field about the wisdom they've accrued and asks the question: “Well, how should I live?” While the show doesn't fully avoid the pitfalls of the celebrity interview, secrets and things emerge within the course of a conversation and the framework itself gets to the very core of human existence.  In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, the panel answers a fittingly existential question from listener Gretel: “Wondering how you, high achievers all, balance ambition with contentment. Do you consider yourselves competitive or is your drive innate? I vacillate between pushing myself harder, striving to achieve more, and being grateful for what I have and where I am. Is contentment a noble endgame in your opinions?” Email us at culturefest@slate.com.  Outro music: “Bollywood Star” by Jhukane Bada. Endorsements: Dana: Andrew Scott's performance as Hamlet in 2017. (The full three-hour production can be watched on YouTube.)  Julia: Worn: A People's History of Clothing by Sofi Thanhauser.
