In episode four of the "2021 Oscar Bait" season, the guys discuss "News of the World". The book, written by Paulette Jiles and published in 2016, was adapted for the screen in 2020. The film was directed by Paul Greengrass and written by Greengrass and Luke Davies. It stars Tom Hanks and newcomer Helena Zengel. The conversation ranges from the book's unique prose, the adaptation's odd and confusing changes, the hype around Helena Zengel's performance, and whether or not Tom Hanks' career is now on a decline.

🔴#Fitz42 En “La guía del autoestopista galáctico” 🚀, cuando una raza de seres superinteligentes pregunta al súper ordenador Deep Thought ¿Cuál es el sentido de la vida, del universo y todo lo demás? Después siete millones y medio de años procesando lel ordenador responde ,42. En la página 42 de la edición original de “Harry Potter y la piedra filosofal” Harry descubre que es un mago. Según el matemático Paul Copper , tardaríamos 42 minutos en atravesar la tierra por un agujero hasta las antípodas , impulsándonos con la fuerza de la gravedad. Seguimos con más teorías sobre el átomo y aventuras, mientras la vida pasa con sus rutinas. Arrancamos nuestra selección musical con un clásico del indie americano, Damien Jurado y su nuevo tema “Helena” que va a pertenecer a suvdisco “The Monster Who Hated Pennsylvania”, el de Seatle mantiene durante este año de confinamiento un ritmo endiablado de trabajo, las discográficas no dan a basto a sacar sus temas, hasta el punto de que Jurado ha tenido que lanzar su propio sello para dar salida a tanta obra. Los Ratboys , la banda de Chicago , están de regreso con un nuevo single que los devuelve a la senda alt-country que tanto destacó en sus inicios. De esta forma nos encontramos con ‘Go Outside’, una melodía radiante, muy asociada a la canción americana y que recoge muy bien esas ganas de disfrutar la vida de una forma apacible y sin prisas. Desde México nos llega Yosoymatt, el alias de Roberto Matthews que en colaboración con Hermanu acaba de lanzar el tema de mismo titulo “YoSoyMatt” que nos da buen rollo pero que trasmite la impresión de que el artista vive en una realidad bastante diferente a la nuestra, música electrónica con una trompeta por encima, mientras recita, … ¿Cómo te ves en 10 años? Después del brillante “Maple Key” en 2015 y “Meadow Lane Park” en 2019, Maxwell Farrington & Le SuperHomard ha visto algunos cambios en su "alineación", pero el francés Christophe Vaillant no ha renunciado a su búsqueda de la excelencia pop. Esta vez con una nueva voz, la del australiano Maxwell Farrington , residente en Aviñón, con el que colaboran desde hace unos meses , podremos escuchar el resultado en un nuevo álbum que saldrá en primavera, este es el primer adelanto ′′ We, Us The Pharaohs”. Suena un clásico eterno del western, “My Rifle, My Pony and Me” en la versión original interpretada por Ricky Nelson y Dean Martin, tal como sonaba en “Rio Bravo” el maravilloso western del gran Howard Hawks, la música a cargo de uno de los grandes de la música del oeste, Dimitri Tiomkin. El guitarrista zurdo y cantautor tuareg Mdou Moctar autodidacta en el sentido más estricto del término. Se construyó su propia guitarra con cuerdas de una bicicleta, en pleno desierto de Níger. Su primer trabajo “Anar” (2008) se grabó en condiciones precarias, no salió en formato físico y contiene blues mezclado con psicodelia procesada con cajas de ritmos y autotune. Su fama fue propagándose por el Sahel gracias a los teléfonos móviles y entonces fue descubierto por la gente del sello Sahel Sounds. Ahora convertido ya en figura prepara “Afrique Victime”,su debut en Matador Records, se abre un nuevo hueco para la música sahariana contemporánea y la “música rock”, fundiendo guitarras y grabaciones de campo con meditaciones poéticas sobre amor, religión, derechos de las mujeres, desigualdad. “Tala Tannam”, que sirve como adelanto de este nuevo álbum, significa “tus lágrimas” ‼️▶️▶️49:58 “Noticias del gran mundo” de Paul Greengrass Basada en la novela de Paulette Jiles, “Noticias del gran mundo” cuenta cómo Kidd (Tom Hanks) encuentra en su camino a la joven Johanna (Helena Zengel), una niña alemana huérfana que fue secuestrada por la tribu Kiowa y que tiene que ser llevada a casa de sus tíos en Castroville, Texas. Tras intentar en vano que las autoridades se hagan cargo de la pequeña, el capitán decide hacerlo él mismo y ambos emprenden un viaje donde no solo se enfrentarán a los peligros del Lejano Oeste, desde tiroteos bajo el sol hasta tormentas de arena, sino también a sus propios demonios personales. Los años de Trump han sacado a relucir la división interna del país, el mismo espíritu guerracivilista y la lacra del racismo que se respiraba en los años de la posguerra a finales del siglo XIX, donde transcurre la película … El pasado cimenta el presente, y por eso es imprescindible que lo recordemos y aprendamos de él.
The January assault on the U.S. Capitol and the depth of toxic partisanship lead us to question our past assumptions about the American electorate and its relationship with the government.This episode features two experts who have spent many years trying to understand us. Frank Luntz is one of the best-known pollsters and political communications experts in America today. We hear edited extracts from a recent interview he recorded with Harvard Law School Professor and attorney, Lawrence Lessig, on the podcast, "Another Way by Lawrence Lessig".Ethan Porter is an assistant professor of media and public affairs at George Washington University School of Media and Public Affairs, and the author of the new book "The Consumer Citizen" He investigates how voters' everyday experiences as shoppers and consumers influence their political behavior. We hear extracts from his interview on the podcast, "Politics in Question"."How Do We Fix It?" and both of the podcasts featured in this episode are members of The Democracy Group podcast network."The single best decision that was made since the election was Twitter kicking Donald Trump off because he can't add to that ugliness anymore", says Luntz, who is a committed Republican."Government provides people with a lot of benefits that they just don't know about", says Porter. "Because they have a consumer mentality, they become frustrated with government and they want to punish it."Recommendation: "News of the World" with Tom Hanks is based on a popular novel by Texas writer, Paulette Jiles. Her latest book is "Simon The Fiddler" See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Pero el capitán pronto descubrirá la verdadera historia de esta niña con quien emprenderá un arriesgado viaje para devolverla a los únicos familiares que le quedan.

Una bella y entretenida historia con excelentes actuaciones, drama, suspenso y tensión. Un western que trata temas actuales como el racismo, las formas de comunicación, las secuelas y traumas que la guerra ha dejado en las personas.
De retour sur Netflix après la diffusion de son drame UN 22 JUILLET en 2018, le cinéaste Paul Greengrass retrouve Tom Hanks, l’interprète principal de son CAPITAINE PHILLIPS, pour les besoins d’une adaptation de NEWS FROM THE WORLD, le roman de Paulette Jiles distribué chez nous sous le titre un peu générique de LA MISSION. Les deux hommes signent ici le premier western de leur carrière respective (non non, Woody dans TOY STORY, ça ne compte pas !), l’histoire d’un vétéran de la Guerre de Sécession dont la fameuse mission consiste justement à escorter une petite fille vers la seule famille qui lui reste. S’ensuit un parcours à travers le grand Ouest semé d’embuches, mais dans lequel les deux personnages vont finir par se révéler et se comprendre, mais auquel il manque finalement d’une réelle perspective sur l’époque, comme seul le genre du western peut vraiment le permettre et surtout le magnifier. Au micro de Clémence Gueidan, Marie Casabonne, Yannick Dahan et Erich Vogel expriment leur sentiment sur ce projet finalement « tout mignon, tout gentil » qu’il est possible de voir sur Netflix depuis quelques jours.Présentation : Clémence GueidanRédacteur en chef : Stéphane MoïssakisChroniqueurs : Marie Casabonne, Erich Vogel et Yannick DahanProduction : Clémence Gueidan et Alain MercierHabillage Sonore : LatexPour nous soutenir, une seule adresse : https://fr.tipeee.com/capture-mag/En MP3 sur Acast : bit.ly/3bokT2rSur SPOTIFY : spoti.fi/3caW88GSur DEEZER : bit.ly/2wtDauUSur APPLE podcasts : apple.co/2UW3AyOSur Google Podcasts : bit.ly/39W69oRSur Soundcloud : bit.ly/3u8M9uFSur Youtube :

Earlier this summer, the Mellon Foundation — the largest humanities philanthropy in the United States — announced it was shifting its mission to focus more on social justice. It backed up that announcement with a $5.3 million grant to fund a collection of books to be placed in 1,000 prisons and juvenile detention centers across all 50 states. The Million Book Project was dreamed up by poet and legal scholar Reginald Dwayne Betts. It intends to curate a capsule collection of 500 books — Betts calls them “freedom libraries” — that will include literature, history, poetry and social thought, with an emphasis on books by Black writers and thinkers. Thursday morning, MPR News host Kerri Miller spoke with Betts and Mellon Foundation president Elizabeth Alexander about the project and what they hope to accomplish.

Anna and Amanda discuss books sales in the time of Covid-19 as the big box stores in America find success selling books next to the toilet paper. Our book of the week is Simon the Fiddler by Paulette Jiles, the New York Times best-selling author of News of the World, which was a National Book Awards finalist. This is her highly anticipated follow-up novel, a Western romance set in Texas in the aftermath of the Civil War. Acclaimed for its 'authentic humanity' (New York Times) and 'airy, luminescent prose' (LA Times), but what did Anna and Amanda think?

Anna and Annie discuss the Orwell Prize for Political Fiction winner The Nickel Boys, and what we think of David Walliams' books after criticism by Jack Monroe. Our book of the week is Bluebird, Bluebird by Attica Locke. This is the first in the Highway 59 series featuring Darren Matthews, a black Texas Ranger. With a gripping plot, vast landscape and racial tensions, this is a must-read. Described as 'mesmerising' (Guardian) and 'a superb thriller' (Times), Locke has won many awards and we can see why. Looking forward to the next in the series, Heaven, My Home. Coming up: Simon the Fiddler by Paulette Jiles. Follow us!

Host Daniel Raimi talks with Jay Bartlett—a research associate at RFF—about his recent work on wind energy development. Jay explains how wind projects actually get built, i.e., how developers raise money for their projects and who they sell their electricity to. Daniel and Jay also discuss how state and federal policies shape these markets, and how the coming changes in the policy landscape are likely to affect future wind development.

4:17: While a Gallup Poll shows some Americans growing more confident in a Trump presidency, mental health professionals reported a surge in demand for services in the wake of last month’s election, and the prospect of Donald Trump taking the oath as president has led to increased anxiety, confusion and hard feelings among friends and relatives. Author Jeff Gillenkirk claimed to be suffering from Post-Trump Stress Disorder, and died of a heart attack two days after his essay’s publication. Psychiatrist Mark Komrad has some advice for people who might be experiencing unwelcome levels of stress related to Trump’s ascendance, and for supporters of Hillary Clinton worried about conflicts with family members who voted for the New York billionaire. Dr. Komrad is a psychiatrist on the clinical and teaching staffs of Sheppard Pratt Hospital and the Johns Hopkins Hospital. He is the author of “You Need Help: A Step-by-Step Plan to Convince a Loved One to Get Counseling.”35:18: Book critic Paula Gallagher gives rave reviews to Trevor Noah’s memoir about growing up in post-apartheid South Africa and Paulette Jiles’ new novel, “News of the World.” She calls the latter “incredible,” with passages we’ll want to read out loud. Gallagher also reviews Michael Chabon’s new novel, “Moonglow.” She returns to show later this week with a list of books that will make good gifts for the holidays.Links:http://www.alternet.org/personal-health/new-ptsd-post-trump-stress-disorderhttp://www.komradmd.com/Mark_Komrad_MD/Welcome.htmlhttp://youneedhelpbook.com/You_Need_Help/Overview.htmlhttp://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/537515/born-a-crime-by-trevor-noah/9780399588174/https://www.harpercollins.com/9780062409201/news-of-the-worldhttps://www.harpercollins.com/9780062225559/moonglow
