However, an earthquake underwater creates a tsunami and the ship is in great peril.The movie's stars include Gene Hackman, Ernest Borgnine, and Stella Stevens among many more. The film was directed by Ronald Neame and based on the novel by Paul Gallico. Getting fine reviews and making tons of money, the movie was a huge hit. With the recent passing of Gene Hackman, your co-hosts take a look at this classic film in cinema history and give their thoughts.

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Camel es un grupo de rock británico, formado en Londres en 1969 y consolidado en 1971. Es uno de los pioneros del rock progresivo, y uno de los pilares fundamentales del género, junto a bandas como Pink Floyd, Yes, Genesis, o King Crimson. También participó en la Escena de Canterbury. Considerada como una de las mejores bandas inglesas surgidas en la década de 1970, Camel combinó elementos tomados del jazz, la música clásica y barroca, el blues e incluso la música electrónica, para crear álbumes de notable creatividad y precisión técnica. Los inicios de Camel se sitúan hacia 1964, cuando los hermanos Andrew e Ian Latimer se unieron a sus amigos Alan Butcher y Richard Over para formar un grupo llamado The Phantom Four. En 1969, Andrew organiza otro grupo, The Brew, junto a Doug Ferguson en el bajo y Andy Ward en la batería. El trío se unió al solista Phil Goodhand-Tait para la grabación del disco "I think I´ll Write A Song" y su posterior gira a principios de 1971. Para diciembre de 1971, Camel ha adquirido ya su nombre definitivo y la formación clásica del grupo, con Peter Bardens (teclados, voz), Doug Ferguson (bajo, voz), Andy Ward (batería, percusiones) y Andrew Latimer (guitarra, flauta, voz). En agosto de 1972, firmaron un contrato con MCA Records y grabaron su primer disco. En medio de las grabaciones, el productor Dave Williams les sugiere que contraten un cantante. Tras realizar una audición a casi 30 candidatos, deciden cantar ellos mismos. El timbre peculiar de las voces de Latimer y Bardens se convierte en uno de los rasgos distintivos del grupo. Su álbum homónimo de debut lanzado en 1973, Camel, obtiene poco éxito. Sin embargo, con el tiempo se convertiría en uno de sus trabajos más representativos. Canciones como Slow Yourself Down o Never Let Go y números instrumentales como Arubaluba o Six Ate fueron perfilando el sonido de la banda. La exigencia y falta de éxito comercial les lleva a romper con su discográfica, tras lo cual recalan en Decca, con la que permanecieron durante los diez años siguientes. El primer disco para Decca, segundo de su carrera, fue Mirage. Álbum grabado noviembre de 1973 y lanzado en marzo del año siguiente. Aquí Latimer se estrena ejecutando la flauta, dándole un nuevo sonido característico a la banda. No hubo sencillo de promoción, ni tampoco entró en las listas inglesas, pero la respuesta de los medios de comunicación en general con el disco acabado era muy prometedora. La prestigiosa revista Sounds fue una de las primeras en alabar el trabajo y Andy Ward y Doug Ferguson fueron descritos como una máquina bien engrasada. Aún más lejos fue la revista musical Beat que declaró a Mirage como Álbum del Mes, y finalmente llegó la sorpresa cuando el disco entró en los Billboard Top 149 y permaneció visible durante nada menos que 13 semanas. Hoy, Mirage está considerado como uno de los discos imprescindibles dentro del rock sinfónico de todos los tiempos. La revista Rolling Stone lo incluyó en el puesto 21 de los 50 grandes discos de Rock Progresivo de todos los tiempos.​ En abril de 1975 editan el álbum The Snow Goose, enteramente instrumental, que está basado en la novela homónima de Paul Gallico. Aunque el propio escritor mostró su descontento, pues los relacionó con la marca de cigarrillos —Gallico los detestaba— se trata de una obra magistral que se convertiría en el álbum clásico del grupo. El 17 de abril de 1975 el álbum fue presentado en un concierto en el Royal Albert Hall de la capital inglesa junto a la Orquesta Sinfónica de Londres . Fue el paso definitivo de Camel a la escena internacional. Por vez primera entra en las listas inglesas de los álbumes más vendidos alcanzando el Top 20 y manteniéndose en listas durante más de tres meses , alcanzando el honor de revistas prestigiosas como Melody Maker y participaron en el programa de televisión "Old Grey Whistle Test" de la BBC (donde actuaron junto a una pequeña orquesta de cámara). En 1976 editan Moonmadness, reclutando al saxofonista Mel Collins para su presentación en vivo. El baterista Ward empujaba el sonido de la banda hacia el jazz y eso trajo las primeras tensiones en el grupo, que dieron como resultado la marcha de Ferguson. En 1977 se edita Rain Dances, con varias colaboraciones de músicos como Brian Eno, y entra al grupo Richard Sinclair, ex-Caravan. En 1978 sale el álbum Breathless, tras cuyo lanzamiento Peter Bardens abandona Camel. Como sustitutos para la gira correspondiente contrataron dos teclistas: Dave Sinclair, primo de Richard Sinclair y ex-Caravan, y a Jan Schelhaas, que más adelante acabarían uniéndose a Caravan. Estos cuatro últimos trabajos discográficos les dieron el éxito tanto en Europa como en Japón. Al finalizar la última gira, los Sinclair se fueron y les relevaron Kit Watkins y Colin Bass. Esta formación grabó su álbum más comercial hasta la fecha, I Can See Your House From Here (1979). El grupo inició la década con el álbum conceptual Nude (1981), basado en la historia del soldado japonés Hiroo Onoda, que se mantuvo oculto durante varios años después de acabada la Segunda Guerra Mundial, sin saber que ésta ya había acabado. Para este disco Latimer tuvo que recurrir a los teclados de Duncan MacKay, ya que Watkins y Bass andaban inmersos en otros proyectos, si bien participaron en la gira de presentación del LP. Comenzó a colaborar en las letras la esposa de Latimer, Susan Hoover. Ya en 1981 la compañía discográfica celebra los diez años del grupo y la cifra de 1.500.000 copias vendidas de sus discos anteriores y edita "The Chamaleón" un recopilatorio con canciones escogidas por Latimer y Ward. A mediados de 1981, Andy Ward abandona la banda por problemas con las drogas y el alcohol y Camel se disuelve. Sin grupo y presionado por la discográfica para sacar un nuevo disco, Latimer se rodea de músicos invitados para sacar The Single Factor. Luego saldría Stationary Traveller, álbum en que Latimer buscó la colaboración de Ton Scherpenzeel, teclista del grupo neerlandés Kayak, y el baterista Paul Burges. Este trabajo fue muy bien recibido por la crítica y Colin Bass volvió para la gira, junto con Chris Rainbow y Richie Close. A partir de este momento, Bass estaría presente en todas las formaciones de Camel. Tras la publicación de Pressure Points, concierto grabado durante la gira de 1984, la banda desapareció por un largo periodo. A inicios de la década de 1990 Latimer volvió a usar el nombre de Camel, aunque él era ya el único miembro fundador que permanecía en el grupo. Decide vender su casa en Inglaterra y se muda a Estados Unidos, donde funda el sello discográfico Camel Productions. En el año 1991 el grupo edita Dust and Dreams, un álbum conceptual basado en la novela Las uvas de la ira de John Steinbeck. Dust and Dreams fue escrito a mediados de los ochenta pero Andy Latimer reescribió gran parte del álbum ya en California incorporando músicos estadounidenses. Tras siete años sin salir de gira el grupo se pone en marcha como cuarteto con Andy Latimer, Colin Bass, Paul Burgess más la inclusión de Mickey Simmons (ex-Mike Oldfield, Fish) en los teclados. Tanto la gira como el disco fue muy bien recibido por la crítica, especialmente en el Norte de Europa, lo que en cierta manera significaba un éxito para el grupo tras apostar por su independencia del mainstream. Ahora, con la total libertad artística consolidada Camel comienza una producción discográfica de los años siguientes que comprende numerosos álbumes en directo de anteriores giras y nuevos álbumes y colaboraciones con otros artistas. El siguiente álbum en estudio concebido entre Andy y su esposa Susan, fue Harbour of Tears (1996), dedicado al puerto de Cobh (Irlanda), desde donde embarcaron muchos emigrantes hacia EE. UU. durante la gran hambruna irlandesa de 1845-1849. Tras ello realizaron una gira por Estados Unidos, Europa y Japón, tras la cual editaron Coming of Age en doble CD y DVD grabado en directo en la misma. Harbour of Tears recuperó a muchos de los seguidores de Camel y entra en las listas Neerlandesas devolviendo al grupo el interés de los seguidores del rock progresivo. En 1999 la banda formada por Latimer, Stewart, Bass y Scherpenzeel grabó Rajaz, un retorno a sus raíces de rock progresivo, inspirado en el rastro dejado por los dromedarios en desierto que sirve de guía a los nómadas. Álbum diferente en composición a los dos anteriores en el que predominaba la música más sinfónica y compuesta desde el piano, en este nuevo disco la guitarra se convierte en centro de la mayoría de los temas. Ese mismo año, Colin Bass edita un álbum en solitario, el fabuloso "An Outcast of the Islands" que contaba con la participación de sus compañeros Andy Latimer y Dave Stewart. Pero tras la grabación del disco, Stewart deja la banda y se muda a Escocia, y para la gira de ese año, fue sustituido por Denis Clement, incorporándose también a los teclados Guy LeBlanc. Quedando la formación de la siguiente manera: Andy Latimer, Colin Bass, Denis Clement y Guy Leblanc. A mediados del año 2000 emprenden una serie de conciertos y en 2001 por primera vez, el grupo realiza una exitosa gira por Sudamérica. En el 2002 lanzan un nuevo álbum de estudio titulado A Nod and a Wink, como homenaje a Peter Bardens, fallecido en enero del mismo año, y en 2003 emprenden una gira mundial a la que denominan "The Last Farewell" con la que comunican el fin de giras mundiales y centrarse más en giras más limitadas en espacio y tiempo. Luego de un tiempo, el grupo desaparece de escena durante un largo período, dando a conocer pocas noticias de Camel. Andy Latimer y Susan Hoover anuncian que retornan a Inglaterra donde establecen nuevamente la base de operaciones de Camel Productions en el futuro. En el año 2006 aparece la noticia de una colaboración de Andy Latimer con Roger Waters de Pink Floyd para unirse a la gira de Dark Side Of The Moon, pero finalmente no se lleva a cabo. En el año 2008 publican en su sitio oficial que una grave enfermedad había afectado la salud de Andrew Latimer. Este mismo año recibe un trasplante de médula ósea acompañado de un intenso tratamiento, con el cual logra recuperar casi el total de su salud. Tras esta conmovedora noticia para Camel, la banda se toma una pausa indefinida, esperando la recuperación completa de Latimer, y tampoco dan a conocer nuevas noticias. Finalmente en el año 2010 se publica el DVD The Opening Farewell, perteneciente al último concierto dado en su última gira, y Andy comienza a reaparecer como músico sesionista en varios álbumes y colaboraciones con distintos grupos. Camel regresa en 2013 a los escenarios con una extensa gira por Europa y Reino Unido de conciertos celebrando los 40 años del mítico álbum The Snow Goose, del cual se publica una reedición. Bajo la nueva formación compuesta por Andy Latimer, Colin Bass, Guy LeBlanc, Jason Hart y Denis Clement, el grupo vuelve a surgir en escena. Durante la gira se graba el concierto en el Teatro Barbican de Londres y editado posteriormente en DVD In From The Cold, que se divide en 2 discos. Andy Latimer recibió en 2014 el premio Lifetime Achievement de mano de la prestigiosa revista musical Prog de teamrock.com y una nominación en la categoría de Evento en Vivo por la gira The Snow Goose. Para 2014-15 el grupo gira nuevamente por Europa presentando esta vez un repertorio de los temas más emblemáticos de su larga trayectoria, con especial atención al álbum Moonmadness el cual tocan casi al completo. La formación sigue siendo la misma excepto la incorporación de Ton Scherpenzeel en sustitución debido a grave enfermedad de Guy LeBlanc, fallecido en 2015. En mayo de 2016, Camel extiende sus actuaciones a Japón y Andy Latimer afirma tener grabado material casi para cinco discos, pero sin confirmar si al menos algo de ese nuevo material será editado. El puesto de teclista lo ocupa el joven Pete Jones. El 17 de septiembre de 2018 Camel inició su gira "Moonmadness Tour 2018" en el Royal Albert Hall de Londres, donde grabaron su último material audiovisual. El 29 de noviembre de 2021 Camel anunció en su sitio oficial una gira por Reino Unido para junio de 2023, motivo de celebración por sus 50 años de carrera. Camel ha sido citado como influencia por artistas y bandas como Opeth, Rick Astley, The Alan Parsons Project, Brian Eno, Steven Wilson, Dream Theater, Änglagård, etc. Pagina Oficial: https://www.camelproductions.com/Escucha este episodio completo y accede a todo el contenido exclusivo de Biblioteca Del Metal - (Recopilation).

Anthony Fabian, the director of this summer's sleeper hit, Mrs Harris Goes to Paris,  is a long-time Paul Gallico fan, and for this episode of Shelf Life he has chosen the author's beloved children's book, Jennie (known as The Abandoned in the U.S.), about a boy's metamorphosis into a cat, as one of his two favorite books. The other is Dancer, the mesmerizing 2003 novel by the Irish writer Colum McCann about the life of the legendary dancer Rudolf Nureyev.  

In this episode of Sonitotum with Matthew Wayne Selznick, we examine the claim that if a writer isn't enjoying the act of writing, the reader will know it... and we declare shenanigans. Writing is hard. If, as a writer of fiction, you're enjoying the act of writing -- if it's not challenging you, pushing you, changing you -- you're not doing your best work. Let me tell you why. Listen! Links and topics mentioned in this episode include... My day job is providing a variety of creative services (like my writer's coaching service and my beginning indie author consulting) to authors, podcasters, and other creative professionals.

Hazy Days and Cloudy Nights: "How It All Got Started"  is my free serial available via email subscription I mention the particularly challenging writing session that inspired the discussion that inspired this episode... the session in question became part of my novelette "The Perfumed Air at Kwaanantag Bay," a follow-up to my novel Light of the Outsider. Two examples of a reading experience well worth having even though you might not enjoy them in the usual sense of the word: Ulysses by James Joyce and Moby Dick by Herman Melville. Sometimes we want our entertainment to blatantly manipulate us. The movie Forrest Gump from director Robert Zemeckis is an example. Get to Know Your Worst Self and become a better writer and maybe even a better person. Saltine crackers. You know. Those things we use to make soup less flavorful. Frank Norris is the first to have expressed the sentiment, "I don't like writing but I love having written." Responding the question of whether writing was a chore, Red Smith first said, "Why, no. You simply sit down at the typewriter, open your veins, and bleed." Before him, Paul Gallico wrote, "It is only when you open your veins and bleed onto the page a little that you establish contact with your reader." Explore the origins of this quote.

In what will surely go down as one of the most purely delightful films of 2022, "Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris," based on the beloved 1958 novel "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Paris" by Paul Gallico, is now playing in theaters from Focus Features. It tells the story of how a widowed cleaning lady in 1950s London, travels to France to purchase a Dior dress. We were lucky enough to get the chance to interview the key individuals involved in the making of this film, including Academy Award-nominee and lead actress Lesley Manville, co-star Lucas Bravo, the film's Academy Award-winning costume designer Jenny Beavan ("Cruella" & "Mad Max: Fury Road") and the director, writer and producer, Anthony Fabian. All three interviews are available to listen down below as we take you behind the scenes into the making of the film. We hope you enjoy these discussions and will check out the film soon. Thank you!

A bit of mix and match on this episode of BEHIND THE LENS with filmmaker DANIEL J. COPLAN talking about 8 WINDS, plus our exclusive interview with director ANTHONY FABIAN talking about the delightful MRS. HARRIS GOES TO PARIS. First up is writer/director/producer/editor/actor DANIEL COPLAN who is on hand talking about his new film, 8 WINDS. Listen as Dan talks about his 5+ year journey in making 8 WINDS from idea to script and how to bring the page to life on screen. Covering everything, starting with the film being lo budget/no budget/micro-budget and how that dictated what Dan would and wouldn't be able to do with filming which impacted him starting at the script stage, to single camera shooting to using natural light and planning for such, to wireless mics and why scenes were limited to only two speaking characters in a scene, to casting, to pick-up shooting, to editing and more. A lot of helpful information for first-time or novice filmmakers as well as showcasing Dan's passion and sticktoitiveness for telling this story. And then we're talking about one of my favorite films of the year – MRS. HARRIS GOES TO PARIS – with my prerecorded exclusive interview with director/co-writer ANTHONY FABIAN. Nothing short of magical enchantment, this film is pure joy and a wonderful adaptation of Paul Gallico's 1958 novel which I have loved since first reading it in elementary school in the late 60s. Starring Lesley Manville, Jason Isaacs, Isabelle Huppert, Lambert Wilson, Alba Baptista, Lucas Bravo, and Ellen Thomas, the joy, beauty, and wonder of MRS. HARRIS GOES TO PARIS all come together under Anthony's direction. Listen as Anthony goes in-depth talking about the adaptation of Gallico's book with various themes and building strong character backstories, cinematography and camera lyricism, cinematic influences, the use of color, production design, Christian Dior, the brilliant and beautiful period costume design of Jenny Beavan Rael Lewis' whimsical score and musical contrasts, and more. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Does Mister-not-Doctor Andrew MacDuhui (Paddy McG) hate pets? (He does not, no matter what his low-information neighbors in the fictional Scottish town of Inveronoch think.) Did Walt Disney hate cats? (Our very special guest Disney expert, Josh Spiegel, makes a compelling case.) Were animals harmed during the making of this motion picture? (Most certainly, regrettably.)

Full Speed ahead, lads, for this week learning about our Third Ernest Borgnine episode, 1972's the Poseidon adventure. We are talking about Roddy McDowell's mixed up accent, so it is! As well as the largest underwater earthquake in history, grassing up Grandpa Joe for being a benefit cheat and why everyone in this hated thier fellow cast Members. --- The Poseidon Adventure is a 1972 American disaster film directed by Ronald Neame, produced by Irwin Allen, and based on Paul Gallico's 1969 novel of the same name. It has an ensemble cast including five Oscar winners: Gene Hackman, Ernest Borgnine, Jack Albertson, Shelley Winters and Red Buttons. The plot centers on the fictional SS Poseidon, an aging luxury liner on her final voyage from New York City to Athens before it is scrapped. On New Year's Eve, it is overturned by a tsunami. Passengers and crew are trapped inside, and a preacher attempts to lead a small group of survivors to safety. It is in the vein of other all-star disaster films of the early-mid 1970s such as Airport (1970), Earthquake (1974), and The Towering Inferno (1974). It was released in December 1972 and was the highest-grossing film of 1973, earning over $125 million worldwide. It won two Academy Awards,[3] a Golden Globe Award, a British Academy Film Award, and a Motion Picture Sound Editors Award.[4] A sequel, Beyond the Poseidon Adventure, also based on a novel by Gallico, was released in 1979.

In this week's episode, we discuss the 1972 disaster film, The Poseidon Adventure. Based on the 1969 novel by Paul Gallico, the film tells the story of a group of passengers fighting to survive when an ocean liner struck by a huge wave flips over in the Mediterranean. With an all-star cast featuring Gene Hackman, Ernest Borgnine and Shelley Winters, the film was a commercial and critical success. It was nominated for nine oscars, eventually winning two.

Genere molto in voga negli anni sessanta e ancora di più nei settanta, il catastrofic movie raggiunge qui l'apice grazie a un Ronald Neame in grande forma, che dirige un cast affiatatissimo. Riusciranno i supertiti del transatlantico Poseidon ad uscire dalla nave capovolta, colpita da una gigantesca onda anomala, che ha ucciso quasi tutti i partecipanti alla crociera? Il reverendo Gene Hackman (??) tenterà di guidare un piccolo gruppo verso la salvezza, tra pericoli mortali e mille insidie. Tratto dall'omonimo romanzo di Paul Gallico, L'avventura del Poseidon è un titolo avvincente e imperdibile per gli amanti del genere, con una sceneggiatura solidissima, effetti speciali magistrali per l'epoca e vera fonte di ispirazione per i catastrofici che vennero in seguito. Oscar per la miglior canzone e remake di Wolfgang Petersen abbastanza dignitoso.

  The untold story behind the first great sports film... The Pride of the Yankees: Lou Gehrig, Gary Cooper, and the Making of a Classic   On July 4, 1939, baseball great Lou Gehrig stood in Yankee Stadium and gave a speech that contained the phrase that would become legendary: "I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth." He died two years later and his fiery widow, Eleanor, wanted nothing more than to keep his memory alive.  With her forceful will, she and the irascible producer Samuel Goldwyn quickly agreed to make a film based on Gehrig's life, "The Pride of the Yankees."  Goldwyn didn't understand -- or care about -- baseball.  For him this film was the emotional story of a quiet, modest hero who married a spirited woman who was the love of his life, and, after a storied career, gave a short speech that transformed his legacy.  With the world at war and soldiers dying on foreign soil, it was the kind of movie America needed. Using original scripts, letters, memos, and other rare documents, Richard Sandomir tells the behind-the-scenes story of how a classic was born.  The search to find the actor to play Gehrig; the stunning revelations Eleanor made to the scriptwriter Paul Gallico about her life with Lou; the intensive training Gary Cooper underwent to learn how to catch, throw, and hit a baseball for the first time. On a warm summer evening, Richard Sandomir led our intimate Clubhouse conversation and brought "The Pride of the Yankees" to life.  Listen in...
