This time it's two obscure but worthwhile movies based on novels by John D. MacDonald, who was born a century ago this year.

For 201 we look at two movies on a similar subject from either end of the War. First off we have Charlie Chaplin's 1940 comedy The Great Dictator starring Paulette Goddard and Reginald Owens, then we go to 1961 for Stanley Kramer's Judgement at Nuremberg starring Spencer Tracy, Maximllian Schell, Burt Lancaster and Richard Widmark. A very heavy episode to record but scarily timely. Support the podcast via Patreon or the bad guys win.
For the big Two Double Zero Alisa Krasnostein and I take a look at two 'women's films' from 1965.

This time around, we look at two really gear movies. First, A Hard Day's Night from 1964 and Help! from 1965, both starring The Beatles. These movies show the anarchic zaniness to the 1960s. Both were made predominately to sell records to teenagers. One is better than the other. Support the podcast via Patreon
For this week's podcast, I look at two films that weren't really appreciated at the time of their release. The first of these is Anthony Mann's historical epic from 1964 - The Fall Of The Roman Empire starring Stephen Boyd, Sophia Loren and Alec Guinness and the second is an Elia Kazan movie from 1960, Big River starring Montgomery Clift, Lee Remick and Jo Van Fleet. Both films didn't get enough love and both have something important to say politically. Support The Podcast via Patreon.
This time, to celebrate the life of Gene Wilder who stepped on the rainbow this week, I take a look at his work and career and explain what was magical about this strange-looking and extremely talented man. Support the podcast via Patreon.
Two very different movies this time. The definitive and classic version of Oscar Wilde's 1895 play The Importance Of Being Earnest (1952) starring Michael Redgrave, Joan Greenwood and Margaret Rutherford, then we move to 1969 for a forgotten but gritty drama The Reckoning starring Nicol Williamson and Anne Bell.

Support the podcast via Patreon - hosting is required.
This time it's blaxploitation and miltech action all the way, starting with 1972's Superfly starring Ron O'Neal and then moving to 1983 for the action flick Blue Thunder starring Roy Scheider and Malcolm McDowell. Pimpmobiles and choppers. Support the podcast via Patreon.

Two very different films from two different eras and two different countries. Firstly, the 1935 French historical comedy La Kermesse Heroique (Carnival In Flanders) starring Francoise Rosay and Jean Murat, then we go to America in 1988 for Oliver Stone's Talk Radio, starring and written by Eric Bogosian. The only thing they have in common is that they're both really, really good. Support the podcast via Patreon.

I also offer my thoughts on the death of podcasting friend and good human being, Vince Rotolo. Support The Podcast via Patreon - you know you want to.
This time it's a 1958 drama set on the Riviera, Otto Preminger's Bonjour Tristesse starring Jean Seberg, Deborah Kerr and David Niven, then a savage 1969 satire on advertising and politics, Robert Downey Senior's Putney Swope starring Arnold Johnson. Support the podcast via Patreon,
This time around it's Frank Perry's 1972 look at the downside of Hollywood, Play It As It Lays starring Tuesday Weld and Tony Perkins then we go to 1956 for an early Stanley Kubrick film noir, The Killing, starring Sterling Hayden and Marie Windsor. Support The Podcast Via Patreon
For this one we go from 1975 apartheid South Africa for the political action thriller The Wilby Conspiracy starring Michael Caine, Sidney Poitier and Nichol Williamson (who steals the flick) to 1950s St Tropez for Roger Vadim's scandalous and sensuous ...And God Created Woman, starring Brigitte Bardot, Curd Jurgens and Jean-Louise Trintingnant. Bureau of State Security versus Bardot doing the mambo. Support the podcast via Patreon.
This time around, it's ancient Rome circa 1959 and 1960. First to 1959 for William Wyler's epic flick of leprosy and horse-racing, Ben-Hur starring Charlton Heston, Stephen Boyd and Jack Hawkins, then we go to a tale of slavery, oysters and snails for Stanley Kubrick's 1960 Spartacus starring Kirk Douglas, Laurence Olivier and Jean Simmons.

This time around I look at Fred Schepsi's 1989 historical drama The Chant Of Jimmie Blacksmith starring Tom E. Lewis and Ray Barrett, then to 1956 for a great little action flick, Run For The Sun starring Richard Widmark, Jane Greer and Trevor Howard. Support the podcast via Patreon.
This time around it's two Eurocrime movies from the great and largely unsung action director Henri Verneuil. 1969's The Sicilian Clan starring Jean Gabin, Alain Delon and Lino Ventura and 1971's The Burglars (Le Casse) starring Jean-Paul Belmondo, Omar Sharif and Dyanne Cannon. Capers, car chases, tough guys and the best plan hijacking in cinema history.Support the podcast via Patreon. (You know you want to.)
This time around I take a look at Le Magnifique, a 1973 comedy adventure starring Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jacqueline Bisset and a classic film noir, 1946's Gilda starring Rita Hayworth, Glenn Ford and George Macready. Support the podcast via Patreon.
For the first Paleo-Cinema of 2016 I go action all the way looking at Seijun Suzuki's highly entertaining 1963 Yakuza film Detective Bureay 2-3 Go To Hell Bastards! and then on to Fernando Di Leo's 1973 Italian mafia actioner La Mala Ordina a.k.a The Italian Connection. All violence, all the way.Steve Sullivan's author page is here.Support the podcast via Patreon.
For this episode it's music all the way, from female comedians taking the piss out of the Rolling Stones to The Magic Circle Club, this one covers the waterfront. Support the podcast via Patreon.
This time around, it's silliness to profundity, first looking at the 1992 pastiche of A Night At The Opera, it's Brain Donors starring John Turturro, Bob Nelson and Mel Smith, then we go onto the hard stuff, John Cassavetes' harrowing and emotionally raw drama from 1968, Faces starring John Marley, Lynn Carlin and Gena Rowlands. Support the podcast via Patreon.
This time around, just for a change, I take a look at a film noir (just kidding, happens every few episodes). This time it's 1948's Pitfall, starring Dick Powell, Lizabeth Scott, Jane Wyatt and Raymond Burr, then we move forward a decade to one of Alec Guinness' best roles in the 1958 adaptation of Joyce Cary's The Horse's Mouth also starring Renee Houston and Kay Walsh.Support the podcast via Patreon.
This time I breakout of the usual Paleo-Cinema Podcast format to look at the history of James Bond, James Bond in the 21st Century and the 2015 James Bond movie SPECTRE.Support the podcast via Patreon.
This time, it's another film noir episode with a twist. The French invented the term film noir in the late 1940s but they produced a film in 1931 which influenced film noir. That movie, La Chienne directed by Jean Renoir is the focus of this podcast along with Scarlet Street from 1945, which is the American remake of it. Both tell the same story but in different countries with different viewpoints.Support the podcast via Patreon.
This time around, a week late, I look at the 1943 American political movie Keeper Of The Flame starring Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn. Support the podcast via the Patreon campaign.
This time around we go from a 1952 perfect crime movie, Phil Karlson's Kansas City Confidential (which you can view here for free) starring John Payne, Preston Foster and Lee Van Cleef to 1965 biowarfare paranoia with John Sturges' The Satan Bug starring George Maharis and Anne Francis.Support the podcast via Patreon.
Two films noir recommended by none other than Martin Scorsese. Firstly we have the docudrama from 1955 - The Phenix City Story starring John Ireland and Richard Kiley, then a minimalist noir involving an idiosyncratic hitman, Murder By Contract starring Vince Edwards, Herschel Bernardi and Phillip Pine.Support the podcast via Patreon.
Two Godfrey Campbridge movies from 1970 this time. First, the race satire Watermelon Man also starring Estelle Parsons, then the adaptation of Chester Himes' crime novel Cotton Comes To Harlem starring Cambridge, along with Raymond St Jacques, Calvin Lockhart and Judy Pace.

The classic Romero film Day of the Dead is the topic dejour of Episode 150 of Mail Order Zombie (as is Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs)! Miss Bren finally sat down to watch the third film in the ...Dead franchise (it's the fourth ...Dead film she's watched, fifth if you count Shaun..., but that's not really a Romero film so nevermind!), and she joins Brother D to discuss the movie. Brother D resurrects the review he produced of the film's soundtrack album (from way back in Episode 53), and Need-a-Nickname Scott - when he's not dishing the news in the Zombie Beat - takes a look at the original screenplay for the film. A few friends of the show and Mail Order Zombie Family Members also call in their thoughts on the film. And because Brother D both called Miss Bren's bluff and had his own bluff called, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs also gets the Mail Order Zombie treatment (and the Family Movie Night podcast helped out with that!). After the Feedback Discussion (was that . . . Honeydew . . . ?), we'll flash black to this past summer's Famous Monsters of Filmland Convention for the Day of the Dead panel (featuring Mark Tierno, Terry Alexander, Gary Klar, Joe Pilato, Michael Gornick; moderated by Billy Graham) courtesy of Need-a-Nickname Scott and his wife Tracey.
