It is our deepest pleasure to bring you this episode on Norman Jewison's masterpiece of non-auteurism: Fiddler on the Roof. Both of the hosts have a long and complex relationship to both this film and its source material and could wax for hours on its rich humanism and craft. The tale of Tevye the Dairyman and his daughters remains as fascinating and exciting today as ever! We promise! This movie is not boring at all (except for maybe a couple scenes with Perchik). Topics include: changes from the original stories, Jerome Robbins' opening numbers, and a major change in Alana's life.

With her documentary Your Tomorrow streaming across Canada on Friday March 21st and making its broadcast premiere on TVOntario Sunday the 23rd, filmmaker Ali Weinstein picks up the torch for another Norman Jewison musical: His 1971 adaptation of the Broadway smash Fiddler on the Roof. Your genial host Norm Wilner knows the entire songbook for this one.

In the twenty-second episode of Season 11: The Son of Cult Flicks, Kyle is joined by editor Kristi Shimek and musician Ben Childs to discuss the eerily prescient dystopian lens of Norman Jewison's assessment of media violence, corporatization, and the sacrifice of individuality for the sake of comfort in the highly efficient and incredibly technical Rollerball (1975).

Der dystopische Science-Fiction-Film von Norman Jewison präsentiert mit James Caan in der Hauptrolle einen Protagonisten, der sich in einer von Konzernen kontrollierten Zukunftswelt durch ein brutales Sportspektakel kämpft. "Rollerball" vereint packende Action-Sequenzen mit gesellschaftskritischen Untertönen und erschafft dabei eine faszinierende Vision einer Welt.Kontakt zu uns via Mail: podcast(at)retroboost.de

This week, Oscar-nominated writer and director Atom Egoyan – whose latest drama Seven Veils opens in theatres across Canada this Friday – joins the chorus for Norman Jewison's 1973 screen adaptation of Jesus Christ Superstar … a film, and a musical, with which Atom has a very personal connection. Your genial host Norm Wilner is more of a Little Shop guy, honestly.

Episode 413: The Crew's getting the big knife while watching Norman Jewison's Moonstruck.

This week, we can't help but fall victim to la bella luna as Feb2ary Is For Lovers continues with a classic rom-com about how it's impossible not to cheat if you're Italian. It's 1987's Moonstruck, directed by Norman Jewison, written by John Patrick Shanley, and starring Cher, Nicolas Cage, Vincent Gardenia, Olympia Dukakis, Danny Aiello, Julie Bovasso and John Mahoney. The story of a young woman who accidentally falls in love with her fiancé's brother, the movie exudes charm at every turn -- so much so that this little rom-com took home three Oscars in '88, for Cher and Dukakis's performances as well as Original Screenplay for Shanley's script that is funny without being rife with straight-up jokes. There are rich characters here, beset by curses and fatal strains of bad luck, who get laughs not by mugging or ripping one-line zingers but by believing in the seriousness of their tragedies so completely. This is character-driven comedy of the highest order, grounded by the Canadian coziness that Jewison can't help but leave all over the film. Plus: J Mo's got theatrical field reports on both Sonic The Hedgehog 3 and Companion. If you'd like to watch the film before listening along to our discussion, it is one of the more widely available films we have ever covered as Moonstruck is currently streaming in Canada on Amazon Prime, Crave, Starz, Criterion Channel, Tubi and Hoopla at the time of publication. Other works discussed in this episode include Abigail, The Sixth Sense, The Usual Suspects, Identity, Trap, Fargo, The Wedding Singer, Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning: Part One, Mission: Impossible - Fallout, Ocean's Eleven, L.A. Story, Paint, Napoleon Dynamite, ChiefsAholic: A Wolf in Chiefs Clothing, A.I.: Artificial Intelligence, The Fabelmans, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Bicentennial Man, Bottoms and Punch-Drunk Love. Love Month continues next week with another VHS plucked from Hayley's collection as we'll be discussing 1996's Jerry Maguire with Tom Cruise and Renee Zellweger, and will do our best not to get side-tracked discussing the Mission: Impossible franchise but can't promise we won't. Jerry Maguire is currently streaming north of the border on Crave, Starz and for free (with ads) on the CTV app. And of course we're closing out February with a rom-com canon selection, 10 Things I Hate About You. Until then, we'll see you at the movies!!

This week's podcast goes back in time in more ways than one. Gillian Gaar meets Neal Pollack in the pod-dome to discuss her terrific piece about the movies of 1975. Among the topics discussed: How 'The Godfather, Part II' is still incredibly watchable today, how the stars of Robert Altman's 'Nashville' wrote and performed their own songs, how 'Jaws' birthed the blockbuster movie but still featured long scenes of guys talking on a boat, and how Norman Jewison's 'Rollerball' managed to make a fake sport exciting and visceral while still providing a pointed critique of our cultural acceptance of violence. It was an important year from movies, the year the industry really started to pivot from one era to another.'Star Wars: Skeleton Crew', a TV show on Disney+, hearkens back to a time when new Star Wars content was fresh and exciting and filled kids with wonder. Scott Gold joins Neal to talk about the ultimate tween Star Wars pirate adventure, a fun, exciting romp through a fictional galaxy that doesn't take itself too seriously, and features Jude Law chewing every ounce of scenery imaginable. "Space Goonies," directed by leading Hollywood talent. No notes.Enjoy the podcast!

Greg screens Norman Jewison's 1987 romcom "Moonstruck."

Dana and Tom revisit In the Heat of the Night (1967): directed by Norman Jewison, written by Sterling Silliphant, score by Quincy Jones, starring Sidney Poitier, Rod Steiger, Warren Oates, and Lee Grant.Plot Summary: In the Heat of the Night (1967) is a taut, incisive drama that explores the collision of justice and racial prejudice in the Deep South. Sidney Poitier stars as Virgil Tibbs, a Philadelphia detective who reluctantly teams up with a bigoted small-town sheriff, played by Rod Steiger, to solve a murder in Sparta, Mississippi.Director Norman Jewison builds a gripping procedural around the tension between these two men, each forced to confront his own biases in the face of a shared goal. With its evocative cinematography, unforgettable moments of confrontation, and Quincy Jones' soulful score, In the Heat of the Night transcends the confines of a murder mystery. It is a film of deep moral resonance, one that holds a mirror to America's struggles with race, power, and reconciliation—while delivering a narrative as electrifying as it is humane.Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Welcome01:14 Cast and Recognition for In the Heat of the Night03:23 Relationship(s) to In the Heat of the Night07:21 What is In the Heat of the Night About?14:13 Plot Summary for In the Heat of the Night17:06 First Break17:55 Ask Dana Anything18:40 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy22:05 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance25:07 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty34:07 Second Break34:17 In Memoriam35:20 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness41:49 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability44:23 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total46:12 Remaining Questions for In the Heat of the Night48:44 Where the List Stands at the End of Season 552:54 Remaining Thoughts for Season 558:32 CreditsYou can also find this episode in full video on YouTube.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast).For more on the original episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/in-the-heat-of-the-night-1967For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/in-the-heat-of-the-night-1967-revisitFor the entire rankings list so far, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/greatest-movie-of-all-time-listKeywords:In the Heat of the Night, race relations, Sidney Poitier, film analysis, classic films, podcast, movie review, Best Picture, 1967, cultural impactRonny Duncan Studios

It's musicals month for November's theme and hitting up Tim Rice & Andrew Lloyd Webber again because it's time to go to church though we can't tell what denomination this is. It's pretty sweaty but there are some baddies hanging around. A little gay, to be expected, but the band is pretty sick. They're all the band. This is what Nazarenes wish their services were like. It's two thousand years ago by way of the 1970s in this rock opera retelling of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. We're jamming to Norman Jewison's 1973 film adaptation of “JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR” and it stars Ted Neeley (who crushes it) Carl Anderson (who steals the show) and Yvonne Elliman (who can get it). Then you got your Pauls, your Pharisees, your Herods and your Pilates and the timeless tale has never been told like this. We didn't know this at the time but Yvonne Elliman had some disco hits as well. She also hooked up with Eric Clapton but nobody's perfect. But anyway…Jesus. He's just a man, right? Why does he scare them so?

All November we RAISE THE CURTAIN & BELT THE CHORUS for a musicals themed month and we're heading to a fictional Russian town called Anatevka for a folksy tale of a pious and poor Jewish family. This beloved stage show ran very long so perhaps it's no wonder that Norman Jewison's adaptation of “FIDDLER ON THE ROOF” was a box office smash for 1971. In it we meet Tevye' and his family. He's got 3 daughters at marrying age and the good book dictates that their marriages be arranged to benefit their family and status. Such is tradition! But times are changing in Eastern Europe in the early 20th Century and these kids got their own crazy ideas. With the weight of tradition and the dangers of society upon them can Tevye bend without breaking his faith? Starring Chaim Topol, Norma Crane, Leonard Frey and more. Music by Jerry Bock and adapted by John Williams. Angela has booked this month and much of it is Bob's introduction to many musical styles. The only one he's seen for this coming month is “Bye Bye Birdie” of all things. He's only seen three more beyond that. Hear us set fresh eyes and opinions on a beloved classic. If we were a rich man, we would still do a movie podcast. We love movies that much.

In this episode, we dive into Venom: The Last Dance, directed by Kelly Marcel and starring Tom Hardy. Eddie Brock and Venom are back with a choice that could change everything as they're pursued by a relentless military figure and alien monsters from Venom's home planet. Will the duo survive, and what sacrifices must they make along the way? We also review Conclave, a taut thriller directed by Edward Berger and starring Ralph Fiennes, John Lithgow, and Stanley Tucci. This film brings audiences into the Vatican's hidden corridors as Cardinal Lawrence unearths secrets that threaten the very core of the Catholic Church during a papal election. Next up is Your Monster, directed by Caroline Lindy and starring Melissa Barrera and Tommy Dewey. This unique horror-comedy follows Laura Franco, an actress rediscovering her strength after meeting a strange, charismatic monster living in her closet. For our classic pick, we revisit Agnes of God (1985). Directed by Norman Jewison and starring Jane Fonda, Meg Tilly, and Anne Bancroft, this tense drama pits science and faith against each other in a mystery involving a young nun's shocking secrets.

Wiz RECOMMENDS Moonstruck What can be best described as the purest Italian charm offensive ever put on film, Moonstruck is a movie that is made just to make you laugh and smile. The reason is twofold: the great performances and characters. Let's start with the latter: all the characters from the main characters Loretta and Ronny to the supporting and even the ancillary characters are all likable and great to watch. Even when they yell, scream and denigrate one another, you can't help but to be enamored by the characters you are watching. That is helped by the charismatic performances in the film. The best ones are easily Cher as the widow who is reluctantly marrying and Olympia Dukakis as her mother, but also Danny Aiello as the dumb, lovable Johnny and Vincent Gardenia as Loretta's philandering dad are also hilarious and charming characters to follow. It should be said that for a romantic comedy, Moonstruck is much better as a comedy than a romance. Its cute and hilarious scenes and dialogue mask a romantic angle that, honestly, isn't as potent as you'd expect in a good romantic comedy. Then again, the film is so fun and enjoyable that it doesn't matter. Moonstruck is a movie that, no matter when you watch it, still feels as fun and enjoyable as it first came out.

FIRST TO LEAVE THE PARTY is a marvelous and compulsively readable collection of stories from the life of Salah Bachir—a philanthropist, art collector, and movie industry insider. His sheer joy of life, art, giving back, and human interaction has endeared him to some of the most famous and creative people in recent times. Salah's activism is evident even on the cover of his memoir, where he sought to normalize discussions around gender identity by including his pronouns.Salah Bachir, who immigrated to Canada from Lebanon in the 1960s, has been a gay activist who has worked in the film world for over four decades.

This week Amy and Paul are rocking out to the 1973 film Jesus Christ Superstar, starring Ted Neeley and directed by Norman Jewison. This musical stage play turned Burning Man Christ film was shot in the Israeli desert, leaving everyone mystified by the budget's lack of generosity in only affording the actors one set of costumes. Plus, why Ted Neely was always the best fit for the role of Jesus, competing against John Travolta, John Lennon, and many others, and Paul and Amy share a little about their own upbringings within their parents' churches! Next week, Paul is on tour with HDTGM!

This week Paul and Amy's clones are breaking down the 2009 film, Moon, starring Sam Rockwell and directed by Duncan Jones. But first things first, honoring our Oscars bet, Paul announces his removal of the film Intolerance from the Paul and Amy Institute list, much to Amy's chagrin. Then, Paul and Amy dig into Moon, it being a “holy shit” movie in 2009, ponder how and what clones remember, and finally Amy makes the connection between this movie and space's darling George Clooney and the hair-cutting device, Flowbee. Next week, Paul & Amy are talking about Norman Jewison's film Jesus Christ Superstar!

A classic among classics, we're talking enemies to lovers this week! We get to the bottom of what we think of as “enemies,” and how it differs from “rivals-to-lovers” and “friends-to-enemies-to-lovers” and “friends-to-lovers” (jk, we'll never understand friends-to-lovers). We revisit some of our very favorite romances, talk about stakes, about impossible situations, and about how sexy hating someone can be. There are a handful of tickets left for Fated Mates LIVE in Brooklyn, NY, on March 23, at the gorgeous William Vale Hotel! Join us, along with Kate Clayborn, Lauren Billings (one-half of Christina Lauren), Nikki Payne, and a roomful of other romance-obsessed listeners for a night of romance shenanigans at a live taping of Fated Mates! While we're never sure quite how it's going to go, we can guarantee there will be books, booze and bantr…and you'll leave full of joy from all the fun. We've even got The Ripped Bodice on hand to sell books, and the room will be available for hanging with other Firebirds after the live!

It's another Arthouse Tuesday here at Breakfast All Day as we catch up with a couple of major world cinema releases. The first is "Io Capitano," which is up for best international feature at this year's Academy Awards. Italy's entry marks the fifth and final nominee we've reviewed, and while we don't agree on whether it works completely, we both say other films in the category are far superior, particularly "The Zone of Interest." Then we discuss "About Dry Grasses," the three-hour-plus epic from Turkish master Nuri Bilge Ceylan. Don't be daunted by the run time; this is a gorgeous and engrossing film. Both movies we review today are playing in theaters. And for our Patreon subscribers, we had the pleasure of revisiting "Moonstruck," Norman Jewison's 1987 romantic comedy, for February's Off the Menu. It's just as charming as ever.

Romcom Month Strikes Back heats up with Norman Jewison's 1987 classic, Moonstruck! Ben and Martha discuss Cher's Oscar-winning turn and Nic Cage's breakout performance in this witty, bizarre, endlessly quotable film. Directed by Norman Jewison, written by John Patrick Shanley, and starring Cher, Nicolas Cage, Danny Aiello, Olympia Dukakis, and Vincent Gardenia.

Sailing with Norman Jewison: A Memorable Adventure I want to share some memories I have about my time sailing with Norman Jewison. Norman Jewison was a remarkable man whose life and achievements left an indelible mark on me and those around him. Though my interactions with Norman Jewison, and his at the time girlfriend, Lynn St David were primarily through our shared pleasures of skiing and sailing, I always held great admiration for Norman's illustrious career. His contributions to the film industry were unparalleled, and his legacy will continue to inspire generations to come. The news of his passing on January 22, 2024 at the age of 97 has caused me to reflect and reminisce about the time we spent together. The first time, in the year 2000, after he received the DeBeers Diamond award at the Taormina Film Festival for his Film Jesus Christ Superstar. When Lynn and he arrived at the boat In Puerto Rosa in Northern Sicily, I can only imagine what Lynn thought she  saw my boat. I don't think it is what Lynn was expecting. However, Lynn was a trooper and made the best of what I'm sure she thought was a terrible situation. We proceeded to have the worst weather of any one week that I've spent in the Mediterranean with guests. It could not have been worse. That first night on the island of Volcano, it was flat calm when we anchored then after the sun went down the wind came up, and up, and up, and that quiet safe anchorage became a dangerous lee shore. I decided it would be more dangerous to try and move the boat in the night, so I decided I had better keep an anchor watch. The boat was rocking and bucking all night long, I couldn't imagine that Lynn and Norman Jewison were able to sleep up in the forward berth. The boat next to us dragged its anchor, and I watched it slowly move downwind and ended up on shore. The next morning the wind died to nothing again, and then we went and enjoyed the mud baths. My skin stank for weeks, smelling of the sulfur mud after that no matter how much I went swimming. Then we sailed around the island of Lipari and tied up on the uncomfortable, surging concrete quay in the city of Lipari that next night. Then the weather started to deteriorate again, and we were stuck there for several days. We were bored just sitting around the harbor, so on July 12th, 2000, we rented scooters to drive around the island, that was my birthday and we stopped at that little restaurant in the middle of the island. Lynn and Norman bought me lunch as a celebration, and then we decided to turn around and go see some caves. In turning around the scooter, the clutch grabbed and accelerated into the rock wall lining the road. I was so worried about Lynn two, but Norman Jewison was just sitting there on the pavement with a bloody arm laughing. What a great sense of humor! To top off the evening after supper, Lynn fell into the water when it was dark while trying to get on the boat in that surging harbor. Lynn could have easily been seriously hurt, but fortunately, Lynn just got wet, and a bit pissed off. Finally, the weather broke, and I thought I had a weather window to go enjoy some of the other islands, so we sailed on up to the island of Panarea. Again, in the middle of the night, the weather came up, and we were in a dangerous lee shore situation, again... Norman took the helm well I brought up the anchor, in the process we were swinging back and forth coming very close to bumping into another boat at anchor who was also dealing with the same wind and trying to get out of there. So back to Lipari we go. This time it was very difficult to find an anchorage because it was so deep and so many other boats had run for shelter, we finally tucked back into a corner with a lot of chain out in order to hold the boat in the strong winds. I think we were there for two or three nights and one day we all got off the boat, Lynn and Norman went one way,

This week we talk about THE TASTE OF THINGS (2:05), which features many of Dave's loves: Juliette Binoche, French food, romance, and tobacco (Megan liked it, too). This deliberate romantic drama, about a gourmand (Benoît Magimel) and his gifted cook (Binoche), is directed by Trân Anh Hùng. It's beautifully photographed, meticulously staged, and it also is not for everyone. Then all three of us watched SCRAMBLED (18:13), a comedic drama written and directed by Leah McKendrick, who stars as Nelly, a 34-year-old woman who freezes her eggs while also taking stock of her life. This one had a range of reactions from the gang. And over on Patreon, we cover the 1968 Norman Jewison-directed THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR. If you're not a member, you may become on for $5 a month. There's a bonus episode each week (about 400-ish now), and we post monthly polls about which movies to watch. Please check it out!
