Don’t order the fish! Old Movie Club celebrates Aviatober with 1939’s “Only Angels Have Wings” and 1957’s “Zero Hour!” One bears a striking resemblance to forgettable 1980s TV series “Tales of the Gold Monkey,” and the other is undeniably the inspiration for the more notable 1980 movie “Airplane!” (That’s foreshadowing.) Jason Snell with Shelly Brisbin, Philip Michaels, Monty Ashley, David J. Loehr and Micheline Maynard.

Initially conceived as a short film exclusively for in-flight guests of Japan Airlines, the film eventually grew in ambition and scope and now stands as one of Miyazaki's most underrated, visually transcendent masterpieces. We discuss the film's many classic Hollywood touchpoints, including the films of Howard Hawks, Victor Fleming, and John Ford and how these influences create a sense of fantasy more grounded that other Miyazaki works. Then, we discuss the film's setting amidst the rising tide of fascism in the Adriatic and its connection to the moving character portrait at its core. Finally, we discuss how 'Porco Rosso' (perhaps more than any other film) suggests some of the director's late period affinities in works like 'The Wind Rises'.Plus: We talk Miyazaki's latest work 'The Boy & The Heron', which we have all had the chance to see ahead of its wide release in the US Friday, 12/8/23. Follow Adam Sullivan on Twitter.Read and subscribe to Adam's newsletter "eventually, forever".....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish

In this week's Acteurist Oeuvre-view episode we arrive at arguably Jean Arthur's biggest year of stardom, 1939, with her appearance opposite Cary Grant in Only Angels Have Wings, Howard Hawks' ode to male professionalism, and her iconic performance in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, opposite Jimmy Stewart. We do our best to get at the essences of Hawks and Capra and consider whether Arthur can embody both the Hawksian and the Capra woman. And in our Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto segment, we discuss Jacques Rivette's Love on the Ground (1984) as a kind of inversion of his surrealist classic Celine and Julie Go Boating.    Time Codes: 0h 1m 00s:        ONLY ANGELS HAVE WINGS (1939) [dir.

I talk about the movie Only Angels Have Wings (1939) starring Cary Grant, Jean Arthur and Rita Hayworth.

Stinking Pause – the movie review podcast with Scott, and special guest this week, Steven from the Reel Britannia podcast This week's movie – Only Angels Have Wings from 1939 – directed by Howard Hawks and starring Cary Grant, Jean Arthur, Rita Hayworth and Thomas Mitchell. “I'm hard to get, Geoff. All you have to do is ask me.” Rough and tough Geoff Carter (Cary Grant) runs a tiny airline that cannot afford to miss any flights, despite the dangers along many of the routes. When Bonnie Lee (Jean Arthur), a performer who is falling for him, sees that Geoff is preparing to fly in violent weather conditions, she takes measures to make him stay. She's successful in her attempt, and two of his employees are forced to make the flight for him -- but Bonnie may have been correct about the potential peril of that flight.

In this episode, we cover significant films released in 1939 that were not nominated for Best Picture. We also give picks for our personal awards, including our top 10 films of the year.

Conventional wisdom tells us that the greatest year in the history of film was 1939. And if you add Renoir’s The Rules of the Game on to the long list of Hollywood classics that year (Gone with the Wind, The Wizard of Oz, Stagecoach, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Only Angels Have Wings, Young Abe Lincoln, Wuthering Heights, etc.) one could certainly make the case for that year. The Vintage Sand team begs to differ, however. In this episode, we make the case for our own favorite years in film history. Josh lands on 1960; Michael opts for 1972 and John goes with 1974. Let the arguments begin!

It's an unwritten rule: never pull a boner in front of Cary Grant. But rules were meant to be broken. Join us for a perilous excursion into the Howard Hawks adventure film where bonds are tested, planes demolished, and friendships forged. With special guest Matt Maddox, editor of the upcoming Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder film DESTINATION WEDDING. If you didn't get the chance to watch this episode's film, ONLY ANGELS HAVE WINGS, starring Cary Grant, Rita Hayworth, and Jean Arthur, you can stream it on Amazon Video.

This episode covers #806 in the Criterion Collection, Only Angels Have Wings, featuring special guest Joel Giroux. Listen here:   PODCAST My review of the film on my blog:  REVIEW

Mark and Aaron fly back to 1939 to discuss Howard Hawks' classic Only Angels Have Wings. We evaluate the special effects, how the film built suspense, the context of aviation in the late 1930s, and later films that embody a similar masculinity. We also reveal the winner of our Don Hertzfeldt contest and talk about region free players. About the film: Electrified by crackling dialogue and visual craftsmanship of the great Howard Hawks, Only Angels Have Wings stars Jean Arthur as a traveling entertainer who gets more than she bargained for during a stopover in a South American port town. There she meets a handsome and aloof daredevil pilot, played by Cary Grant, who runs an airmail company, staring down death while servicing towns in treacherous mountain terrain. Both attracted to and repelled by his romantic sense of danger, she decides to stay on, despite his protestations. This masterful and mysterious adventure, featuring Oscar-nominated special effects, high-wire aerial photography, and Rita Hayworth in a small but breakout role, explores Hawks's recurring themes of masculine codes and the strong-willed women who question them.

Criterion Collection Special A special of a very different kind this week as we celebrate the UK debut of Criterion Collection. We have news, the question of the week and a trailer of the week all before off the Shelf becomes decidedly Criterion flavoured with Tootsie, The Tragedy of Macbeth, Speedy and Only Angels Have Wings. Our Feature Presentation is the Alan Rickman's final picture - political war movie, Eye in the Sky.

With all the "bugs" going around, you can imagine Jim and Al's surprise when Tony showed up at the Hangar 49 studios with a terrible cold.  Reacting quickly, Jim tossed Tony into the back room, known to the production staff as "the isolation chamber."  Tony watched the show with his nose pressed up against the bulletproof window whilst Al and Jim talked about him, and a variety of aviation-related items...you know...the usual drivel that makes up this show.Music:  Journey - Wheel in the SkySound:  George Carlin - Airport SecurityBook:  Ladybirds II-The Continuing Story of American Women in AviationDestination: Smithsonian Air and Space MuseumWebsite: The DC-3/Dakota Historical Society, Inc.Movie:  Only Angels Have Wings (1939)Interview:  Tech.

So often we spend our time thinking about what we see in movies, that it can be easy to forget that cinema is experienced through time, and that experience depends on a tempo. Professor Lea Jacobs at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, has been curious about how rhythm creates film, and her new book, Film Rhythm After Sound, attempts to answer what it meant for movies to not just take on sound in the 1930s, but work through new types of interactions between shots, gestures, edits, sounds, speeds, and more. Jacobs also discusses her work on theatrical stage acting in the 1910s, understanding the Production Code as an industry as opposed to just a censor board, and the importance of historical research as part of Madison's legendary film department. Finally, the two dive into Howard Hawks's masterpiece, Only Angels Have Wings, and theorize a relationship between the film's rhythmic patterns and its unique relationship to sentiment. 0:00-2:19 Opening2:58-8:31 Establishing Shots - Bojack Horseman, Season 29:16-1:02:36 Deep Focus - Lea Jacobs1:03:16-1:05:31 Mubi Sponsorship1:06:45-1:20:14 Double Exposure - Only Angels Have Wings (Howard Hawks)1:20:19-1:21:57 Close

“I thought you had enough of flyers?" Howard Hawks and Cary Grant had already given the world the hilarious “Bringing Up Baby” in 1938, and lucky for us, they liked working together. They’d work on four more films together, including their very next one — “Only Angels Have Wings.” Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we finish our series on films from 1939 with Hawks’ and Grant’s second collaboration. We talk about how this film fared for us upon initial viewing, and how it sat with us. We chat about our love for Jean Arthur and how wonderful she is here. We talk about the rest of the cast — Grant, Richard Barthelmess, Rita Hayworth, Thomas Mitchell, Sig Ruman and more — and what they each bring to the table. We discuss the flying effects in the film and how well they work for us, paired especially with Joseph Walker’s great black-and-white cinematography. And we chat about Hawks and why we like him so much. It’s a film that ranks good, not great, on our lists, but still a film that really got us talking and thinking. It’s well worth checking out, so do so then come back here and tune in to the show! Film Sundries Script Transcript Original theatrical trailer Flickchart Trailers of the Week Andy’s Trailer: Secret in their Eyes — “As a parent, this looks like a brutal film to watch. But it looks damn good to. Julie Roberts looks like she’s found a strong project, which she’s needed, and Nicole Kidman and Chiwetel Ejiofor both look awesome. I can’t wait for this one.” Pete’s Trailer: Joy — “Love the tone of this trailer from David O. Russell. Looks to be a great follow-up to American Hustle and as always, great to see J-Law in something that isn’t Hunger Games.”
