Podcast appearances and mentions of paul mescal

When novelist Maggie O'Farrell learned that Shakespeare had a son who died just a few years before he wrote “Hamlet” — and that history books barely mentioned it — she wanted to find out more. That led her to write the bestselling novel “Hamnet,” which has now been adapted into a new film starring Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley. Maggie joins Tom Power to tell us how her Hamnet story came to be, what Shakespeare might have been trying to tell us by naming his play after his son, and why she waited until her own son was past the age that Hamnet was when he died to start writing her novel.

For this week's main podcast review, Megan Lachinski, Josh Parham, Dan Bayer, and Brendan Hodges join me to discuss the latest film from Academy Award-winner Chloé Zhao, "Hamnet," starring Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal, Emily Watson, Joe Alwyn, Jacobi Jupe, and Noah Jupe. The historical drama film co-written by Maggie O'Farrell, the author of the title novel this film is based on is a largely fictional story dramatizing the marriage between Anne Hathaway (Agnes Hathaway in the novel and film) and William Shakespeare, and the impact of the tragic death of their 11-year-old son Hamnet on their relationship, which inspired Shakespeare's iconic play "Hamlet." The film had its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival and has been drawing tears from audiences everywhere it plays, including the Toronto International Film Festival, where it won the People's Choice Award. What did we think of it, though? Please tune in as we discuss the story, performances, cinematography, score, whether it made us as emotional as intended, its awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

Hamnet, the acclaimed novel by Maggie O'Farrell, is now a major film. The story imagines the life and death of Shakespeare's son, Hamnet, whose loss would later echo through one of his most famous tragedies, Hamlet. O'Farrell joins director and co-writer Chloé Zhao to reveal how they adapted the novel for the big screen. With Jessie Buckley as Agnes and Paul Mescal as William, the film reframes the Shakespeare family story as one of deep love, rupturing grief, and artistic creation. O'Farrell and Zhao discuss developing the screenplay together, interpreting Shakespeare as a husband and father, building the film's immersive natural world, and shaping an unforgettable Globe Theatre sequence that anchors the emotional arc of the story. O'Farrell and Zhao talk about adaptation, artistry, and how a 400-year-old loss continues to inspire new ways of imagining Shakespeare's life and legacy. From the Shakespeare Unlimited podcast.

Friend of the pod Katherine Scheil is the author of Imagining Shakespeare's Wife: The Afterlife of Anne Hathaway and the co-editor of the upcoming Palgrave Handbook of Shakespearean Biofiction, is the perfect person to talk about Chloé Zhao's film version of Hamnet, Maggie O'Farrell's 2020 novel. Scheil highlights some of the differences between the novel and the film; some head-scratching marketing choices; how the novel and (especially) Jessie Buckley's performance, empower Shakespeare's wife in a way we've never seen before; and a curious similarity between Paul Mescal in Hamnet and Tim Allen in Galaxy Quest. (Length 23:21) The post Hamnet, The Movie appeared first on Reduced Shakespeare Company.

Moviewallas is on YouTube! Reviews: Rental Family – Wicked for Good – Hamnet Happy Thanksgiving weekend!

We discuss the film's charm, emotional beats, cultural context, and Fraser's beautifully understated performance. Wicked for Good The second part of the two-film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical. Rashmi dives into whether the sequel improves on part one, how it ties into The Wizard of Oz, and what works (or doesn't) about its pacing, spectacle, and storytelling. Hamnet Chloé Zhao adapts Maggie O'Farrell's acclaimed novel about Shakespeare's family life and the tragedy that shaped some of his greatest work. We debate the film's pacing, emotional impact, performances by Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal, and whether the hype helps or hurts. Join the Conversation Have you seen any of these films?

Directed by Chloé Zhao (Nomadland), it does everything it can to make you cry a whole lot.Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopcultureLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

If you cook the bird, we'll bring the sides for you on this Thanksgiving Week episode of Breakfast All Day. Here are the big movies coming out that we reviewed: WAKE UP DEAD MAN. The third movie in Rian Johnson's "Knives Out" series has more on its mind than its predecessors. But the latest murder mystery is just as fun in its twists and turns, and it features yet another delightful performance from Daniel Craig as Detective Benoit Blanc. This is a non-spoiler review, because as always, the less you know the better. In select theaters Nov. 26 before streaming on Netflix Dec. 12. HAMNET. A major awards contender with a ton of hype, but our review isn't quite so fawning. Director and co-writer Chloé Zhao's film is inspired by the true story of William Shakespeare and his wife as they deal with the devastation of losing their son, Hamnet, at age 11. Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley co-star. In select theaters Nov. 26 before expanding Dec. 5. REBUILDING. It's Josh O'Connor Week (he's also in "Wake Up Dead Man"), which is just fine with us. Here he stars as a cowboy struggling to put his life back together after a wildfire ravages his Colorado ranch. This is a quietly moving indie gem that we both loved. Lily LaTorre is excellent as his young daughter.

Well, here we are. Chloe Zhao's Hamnet - one of the most critically acclaimed movies of the year - premiered at the BFI London Film Festival two weeks ago. Since it's premiere at Telluride back in late August, this movie has been billed as a locked-in OSCAR contender and potentially one of the biggest threats to WIN Best Picture. Reviews like that always get on my nerves because it's classic film festival overhype. You watch a movie surrounded by all the cast & crew and thousands of like-minded movie fans and, inevitably, the hype is going to be through the roof. All that being said, I watched this movie at a film festival as well... so I'll be telling you all today whether the hype was real. I've been a little nervous going into Hamnet because, while the trailers have excited me and the reviews were certainly promising, I am neither a Chloe Zhao guy or a Shakespeare guy. Zhao's movies have always felt cold to me and I truly believe that Nomadland is probably one of the worst Best Picture winners.... of all-time! But, I'm happy to report that Hamnet is the first time that I've truly been able to connect with one of her movies.

Hét év után ismét egy új Nemes Jeles László-film van a magyar mozikban. Az Árvában a Saul fia 48 éves rendezője a saját édesapja és nagyszülei történetét meséli el, és a Filmklub podcast legújabb adásában beszámol arról, hogy milyen érzés volt egy ennyire személyes sztorihoz nyúlni.  Szó esik továbbá a hollywoodi áttörés nehézségeiről, a mesterséges intelligencia korlátairól, a Coen testvérek szakításáról, illetve az Utas és holdvilág jelenbe helyezett filmes adaptációjáról, aminek forgatókönyvét adásunk másik vendégével, Zabezsinszkij Évával írják együtt.Éva casting directorként dolgozott az Árvában, de volt olyan jófej, hogy egy csomót mesélt azokról az esetekről is, amikor olyan hírességeket castingolt László hollywoodi projektjeibe, mint Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi vagy Paul Mescal, sőt egyszer áttételesen még Taylor Swift is képbe került, vagyis hangba.Kitárgyaltuk a magyar film jelenlegi cudar helyzetét, elmerengtünk azon, hogy élhet-e egy színész boldog életet, de a Hunyadi szereposztásáról is adott szakvéleményt.

Thomas Jefferson wasn't the first writer to wax on about the pursuit of happiness, but his famous Declaration of Independence references always struck an emotional chord. On this week's show, Dan Webster, Mary Pat Treuthart, and Nathan Weinbender discuss two films that feature characters on quests for something that, at least tangentially, involves happiness. The first is "The History of Sound," starring Paul Mescal and Josh O'Connor, and the second is the French import, "Souleymane's Story."

The duo star in the new film History of Sound where their musical abilities are put to the test. “I'm always jealous of musicians,' says Mescal. “I'm jealous of the fact that they don't need permission to work.

O'Connor reveals his ‘hippie' hobbies including ceramics, bee keeping and gardening. Mescal and O'Connor also reveal the lessons they've learned on how to master the red carpet. “It can feel quite exposing being yourself in a weird way,” shares O'Connor.

It's Arthouse Tuesday! Our favorite day of the week. (Although Fridays are pretty cool, too.)  Here's what we have for you on this quick, mid-week pop-in: "The History of Sound," a queer romance set during World War I. Paul Mescal and Josh O'Connor co-star as students at a Boston music conservatory who travel New England recording folk songs and falling in love. It's in theaters this weekend, so this is an early review. "Twinless." which we try very hard not to spoil. Writer/director/co-star James Sweeney and Dylan O'Brien play strangers who meet at a support group for twins who've lost a sibling. The less you know about this movie, the better, but trust us when we say that you should see it. Keep an eye (and an ear) out for Friday's episode, when we'll talk about "The Long Walk," "Spinal Tap II: The End Continues," and "Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale." Plus Movie News LIVE! See you then. Subscribe to Christy's Saturday Matinee newsletter: https://christylemire.beehiiv.com/

There have been a number of big summer movies like "F1: The Movie," "Superman" and "Jurrassic World: Rebirth." But these popcorn movies are not likely destined for big awards.

It's hard to accept the fact that summer is winding down. But there's lots of fall culture to look forward to! Our editors sat down to talk about the films, television and sports events they're most excited about, including The Monster of Venice, Preparation for the Next Life and, of course, the WNBA finals.Here at Vogue, it's been the Dogue days of summer. After last year's inaugural Dogue launch, we were inundated with messages from readers asking how their own dog could snag a Dogue cover. So this year we conducted a Dogue cover contest. More than 56,000 (!!) people submitted photos of their dogs, but only one could win! Plus, fashion writer Hannah Jackson takes you behind the scenes with The Dogist for our “Adopt This Dogue!” photo shoot. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Durante la promoción de "Gladiator II" el director Ridley Scott confesó que el motivo que le llevó a fichar a Paul Mescal para interpretar a Lucio fue que vio cierto parecido con un joven Richard Harris así que se lo imaginó siendo el nieto del emperador Marco Aurelio. La secuela de la oscarizada película estrenada en el año 2000 supuso el primer gran proyecto en Hollywood del irlandés Paul Mescal a quien no le ha costado convertirse en uno los más valorados de esta generación de luminarias gracias a un estilo interpretativo muy orgánico, sin caer en el exceso de la escuela “Mamá, ¡quiero ser como Brando!”, y a un aire de masculinidad deconstruida muy acorde a la sensibilidad de la generación "Z". Curtido en el teatro, se dio a conocer gracias a la serie “Normal people” que le proporcionó la nominación al Emmy 2020, situándose bajo el radar de la meca del cine, alcanzando la confirmación con la independiente “Aftersun” por la que llegó a la candidatura al Oscar 2023. Este reportaje pertenece al programa "El Cine de LoQueYoTeDiga" nº 450 (16x07) y fue emitido el 30 de noviembre de 2024.

We're a mere 11 days before the 52nd Telluride Film Festival kicks off on Labor Day weekend and we have a packed show. On episode 303 AwardsWatch Editor-In-chief Erik Anderson is joined by Executive Editor Ryan McQuade, Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello, contributors Mark Johnson and Jorge Tenreiro and Christina Birro of Pop Culture Confidential to break down what we think will be at Telluride this season, who might be getting Silver Medallions and much more. On this episode the crew looks at how Toronto and New York film festival designations give us the clues we need to see what will, or might, be showing up at Telluride including coveted world premieres, Chloé Zhao's Hamnet starring Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal, and Edward Berger's Ballad of a Small Player with Colin Farrell and Tilda Swinton among them. Telluride is also full of Cannes winner carryovers and we expect to see Jafar Panahi's Palme d'Or winner It Was Just an Accident, Joachim Trier's Sentimental Value (Grand Prize winner) and Kleber Mendonça Filho's double winner The Secret Agent (Best Director, Best Actor Wagner Moura) -- all NEON films -- in the lineup. There's also a certain amount of sleuthing involved in the guessing game and is there a chance that A24 debuts Mother Mary here? We'll have to wait and see... You can listen to The AwardsWatch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. This podcast runs 1h4m. We will be back in next week to talk about Spike Lee's newest film Highest 2 Lowest and talk about our Top 5 Spike Lee joints. Till then, let's get into it.
