Wait, Ryan O'Neal again?! Yup! What's Up, Doc is our 3rd O'Neal movie this year. And they all came out in the '70s, which was not just the man's peak. That was director Peter Bogdanovich's most-productive time in Hollywood too. They and the Bugs Bunny-ish Barbra Streisand (who's, of course, still a massive star over 50 years later) came up with a screwball comedy that pays homage to the old masters like Capra, Hawks and Keaton. There are funny misunderstandings, hijinks, 4 people somehow have the exact same bag. And for such a cartoonish movie, the stunts are some of the best ever, especially in the big car chase. The espionage stuff might not work, yet this remains a lot of fun. So dial up episode #666 (insert demonic voice) of Have You Ever Seen on this Victoria Day as we dig into What's Up, Doc. Well, Actually: this film was 3rd at the '72 domestic box office and The Poseidon Adventure was 2nd. Also, Looney Tunes' Casablanca parody, "Carrotblanca", was released in the mid-'90s, not the mid-'40s. Peruse the products offered by Sparkplug Coffee. They give our fans a onetime 20% discount.

Today we're joined by film critic Vikram Murthi for two very different films inspired by the 1966 University of Texas tower shooting. First up is 1968's Boris Karloff-starring TARGETS, the directorial debut of Peter Bogdanovich that featured a fictionalized version of the shooter just two years after the tragedy; and then 2016's TOWER, an animated hybrid documentary told entirely from the ground view of the victims and those who acted to save them.You can find more from Vikram at https://x.com/fauxbeatpoetYou can support us on Patreon at patreon.com/unwatchables to get access to exclusive bonus content and weigh in on what we watch next.Find us online at www.unwatchablespod.com or shoot us an email at unwatchablespodcast@gmail.com.

In 'Death of a Wizard', Edward Varnie crafts a gripping tale set during the social unrest of the 1960s, where three boys decide to take matters into their own hands and confront the Grand Wizard living in their small southern town. This narrative is more than just a Southern thriller; it's a raw exploration of identity, violence, and the complex human experience. Known for his thought-provoking storytelling and intellectual depth, Varnie brings an intricate blend of emotional complexity and cinematic visual flair to every project he touches. His work challenges audiences to confront difficult truths, while inviting them into the emotional landscapes of his characters. Varnie's love for storytelling began at a young age, with poetry, spoken word, and comic books fueling his creative drive. His passion blossomed into a career that has seen him direct award-winning films like 'Release', a festival favorite, and *Weight*, which earned The Black Cat Picture Show's Staff Pick Award. A mentor to many, Varnie has worked closely with acclaimed directors like John Adams, Bob Goose, and Peter Bogdanovich, learning the power of storytelling and the importance of deeply examining human relationships. Themes of empathy, trauma, and connection are central to Varnie's work, as he dives into the complexities of familial ties and the unspoken nuances that define the human experience. Varnie is unapologetically authentic in his approach, consistently striving to challenge his audience's consciousness and push the boundaries of what cinema can achieve. His focus is not just on the story, but on the collaborative process—prioritizing leadership, accountability, and the collective success of the project. Whether directing a feature or writing a genre narrative, Varnie is dedicated to making work that resonates deeply and evokes genuine emotional responses. His creative philosophy is grounded in humility, recognizing that it's not about ego, but about crafting the best possible story for the audience. As a director, Varnie's vision is unapologetically bold. He's committed to exploring stories that question societal norms, including the role of violence, trauma, and identity in the lives of men and women of color. His goal is to write narratives that challenge expectations, particularly in the genre space. Varnie's ultimate aspiration? To craft a unique, original take on iconic characters, like DC's Lobo, pushing the boundaries of comic book cinema. In all his endeavors, Varnie seeks to ignite conversation, push creative limits, and offer audiences a deeper understanding of the world through the lens of powerful storytelling.

Today on another encore edition of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Susannah Mars, daughter of actor and comedian Kenneth Mars. Of course you know Kenneth Mars from his many film roles including Young Frankenstein, What's Up Doc, The Producers, Radio Days & The Parallex View and many more classic films. What you may not know and we learn from talking to Susannah was that her grandfather was a comic and radio personality named Sonny Mars who released one very tidy LP & that later in life, her father became known for voice over work in tons of animated movies and shows, none bigger than that as King Trident in Disney's The Little Mermaid. Susannah also lets us in on what it was like growing up with her cerebral but wacky father. We hear about his lunches with fellow actors and comedians like The Partridge Family's Dave Madden which then somehow led us to reach out to another guest, Denise Gaultier after hearing about her father's somewhat ribald drawings he made for Susannah at those lunches. We also hear about Susannah's singing career, her documentary film, Mourning Has Broken & how she starred in an ABC after school special with Kristy McNichol & so much more. There is so much love and respect and genuine familial memories about growing up with a father it's hard not to empathize with her years after his passing. He made funny voices, she got to watch her dad on stage in St. louis at the Muny Theater and how the cult comedy show Fernwood 2 Night still connects with her & her dads fans. Please take a listen to the latest episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast and enjoy our chat with Susannah Mars. Everyone has a story.

This episode was originally released on June 3, 2020. Listen to help prep for the next episode of our new season, The Old Man is Still Alive. After the death of her first husband and creative partner, Polly moves to New York, where she swiftly meets and falls in love with Peter Bogdanovich. Together Polly and Peter build a life around the obsessive consumption of Hollywood movies, with Polly acting as Peter's Jill-of-all-trades support system as he first ingratiates himself with the previous two generations of Hollywood auteurs as a critic/historian, and then makes his way into making his own films. Together, Polly and Peter write and produce Targets, Bogdanovich's first credited feature, and also collaborate on a documentary about the great director John Ford. By the time Polly gives birth to their first daughter, she believes she and Peter are an indivisible, equal creative partnership — regardless of how credit is distributed in Hollywood.

In the fourth episode of Season 11: The Son of Cult Flicks, Kyle is joined by screenwriter Gio Maldonado and filmmaker Mario Ruiz to discuss Peter Bogdanovich's eerily prescient dissection of America split between traditionalism and progressivism, and the emergence of real desensitized and irrational violence in its populace that defines the pseudo-horror commentary of Targets (1968).
David is joined by Richard Doyle, Eric Grant, and Josh Wilson to talk about a recent release from the Criterion Collection. We had a fun conversation, that unresolved matter of $200 notwithstanding.

EPISODE 61 - “FAVORITE CLASSIC FILMS OF THE 1960s” - 11/11/2024 The decade of the 1960s was an exciting time in filmmaking. The stodgy studio contract system was starting to give way to a new crop of independent cinematic auteurs, often associated with the "New Hollywood" era, include: Stanley Kubrick, Robert Altman, Sam Peckinpah, Arthur Penn, John Cassavetes, Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, and Peter Bogdanovich. These films were edgier and pushed the creative boundaries and social themes to reflect the changing times.

Scamfluencers is a weekly podcast from Wondery that takes you along the twists and turns of the most infamous scams of all time, the impact on victims, and what's left once the facade falls away.Scamfluencers recently dove into the story of Richard Bandler, the godfather of modern mental manipulation. He revolutionized the world of self-help, all thanks to an approach he developed called Neuro-Linguistic Programming. But, NLP methods have been criticized for being dangerous in the wrong hands and inspiring some of the most toxic and criminal self-help movements of the last two decades. Throw in Richard's dark past as a cocaine addict and murder suspect, and you can't help but wonder what his true intentions were.This is just a preview of Scamfluencers. You can listen to the full episode wherever you get your podcasts, or at Wondery.fm/SCAM.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nineteen eighty was going to be Dorothy Stratten's year. Playboy's Hugh Hefner thought it might even be her decade. She was just 20 years old, the girl next door with the shy smile and whispery voice who didn't know her own beauty. But to the men in her life -- magazine mogul Hugh Hefner, director Peter Bogdanovich, and small time hustler Paul Snider -- Dorothy represented the promise of better things -- a centerfold on her way to movie stardom, a muse who could help revive a dying career, and a ticket to the Hollywood dream. But who was Dorothy really? And how did her rise to fame ultimately lead to her death? This is a six-part series about love, sex and murder in 1970s Hollywood when glitter pants and roller skates were all the rage, and the Playboy mansion hosted the biggest party in town.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Our final Bogdanofilm is P-Bog's actual final film - and he probably didn't make any more because he got tired of the tepid critical reception to his best work.

Peter Bogdanovich stayed true to form as he entered the new millennium: by making a movie about stuff that happened almost a hundred years prior. THE CAT'S MEOW was a moderate hit with critics - so-called movie buffs who were happy P-Bog was just performing the same old tricks from earlier in his career. It takes more than a cast of fresh faces to wow The Contrarians, however! Listen to Alex & Julio as they wonder if it's a fool's errand for anyone to play Charlie Chaplin, and if Kirsten Dunst is the only one who attended Charleston camp.TIMELINE00:01:24 The Cat's Meow00:13:53 Contrarians Corner- Wanna know how we really feel about THE CAT'S MEOW?

Welcome to the aughts, P-Bog! Shame about that box office. But seriously, it's impressive (and a similarity he shares with PJ Hogan) that people kept financing Peter Bogdanovich's films despite so many of them being flops. But did THE CAT'S MEOW deserve its financial failure or was it worthy of its critical praise? This Real Talk segment tries to answer that question, as well as delving into the murkiness of accusing an actual real person of murder in your movie.TIMELINE00:01:26 Dream00:02:08 Real Talk00:50:32 The Future & Patreon Stuff- Interested in more Contrarians goodness?

Send us a Text Message.Glenn Scarpelli has a resume that spans stage film and television. From the Broadway stage with Al Pacino and Anne Bancroft to television with Ethel Merman and Norman Lear to film with Peter Bogdanovich and Audrey Hepburn. However in 1986 he left it all behind to follow his heart. Glenn has an incredible Hollywood history and was an absolute joy to chat with.
Regardless of whether anyone considers NOISES OFF a good or bad Peter Bogdanovich movie, it's ludicrous that it's not spoken about more often - and don't even get us started on the meager Rotten Tomatoes coverage. But then again, a movie adaptation about a play that is in itself about the staging of a play could be a little too meta for some audiences/critics. Still… Don't we all love Michael Caine? Even though this Real Talk segment features dissent among The Contrarians, we can at least agree on that part!TIMELINE00:00:50 Now on Patreon00:07:36 Real Talk00:54:58 The Future & Perennial Plugs- Interested in more Contrarians goodness?

Welcome to The 90s, P-Bog style! After a tumultuous intermittent run during the previous decade, Peter Bogdanovich assembled another all-star cast and tried to make audiences laugh again with a film adaptation of the successful play NOISES OFF. If Rotten Tomatoes is to be believed, critics shrugged it off, if they even bothered to check it out. A shame, because this comedy has it all: Michael Caine, Carol Burnett, Superman, John Ritter, sardines… Listen to Alex & Julio praise this play-within-a-play-within a movie and join our standing ovation!TIMELINE00:01:24 Noises Off00:10:37 Contrarians Corner- Wanna know how we really feel about NOISES OFF?

Okay, let's get serious about this. Whether you think it's a little weird for PJ Hogan to follow his wedding-themed debut with another wedding movie, there's a lot to chew on when it comes to MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING. How do we feel about the film's moral stance? Does it embrace rom-com tropes more than it subverts them? Did Rupert Everett burn bright and fast while Dermot Mulroney played the long game? Is this the perfect example of why Julia Roberts reigned supreme once upon a time?

Thank you for listening to the Following Films Podcast. Today I'm joined by actor Rob Schnider and director Peter Byck. I had Rob on the show to discuss his latest film DEAD WRONG. The film is a story of greed, envy, sex, and murder. Centered on a narcissistic husband who is not satisfied with his life and wants more. He devises a psychotic, get-rich-quick scheme with his new, gambling-addicted attorney that ignites an emotional and deadly chain reaction. We also chat about Peter Bogdanovich, Orson Wells, Christopher Walken, Bruce Dern, and our shared love of physical media. Then after the break I'm joined by director Peter Byck to discuss Roots So Deep (you can see the devil down there). Its a 4-part documentary series about inventive farmers and maverick scientists building a path to solving climate change with hooves, heart and soil. Can an underutilized way to graze cattle, that mimics the way bison once roamed the land, help get farmers out of debt, restore our depleted soils, rebuild wildlife habitat and draw down huge amounts of carbon? Cattle have been seen as eco-villains for a long time. What if they can help save us from catastrophic climate change? DEAD WRONG and ROOTS SO DEEP are both available on VOD. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/followingfilms/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/followingfilms/support

This week the guys talk about fine Balinese cinema, spice-averse Australians, Brittany Grinder, cat poop coffee, Steve Albini's love of Costco, Susan Backlinie, Roger Corman, “One Handshake Away” with Peter Bogdanovich, silly middle names, and saving the chorus until the end.
GGACP salutes the life and career of the late, legendary producer-director Roger Corman by presenting this ENCORE of a memorable interview from back in 2014. In this episode, Roger recalls meeting longtime friend and collaborator Jack Nicholson, reveals the reason the Hell's Angels threatened to murder him and explains why “a monster should always be bigger than a leading lady.” Also, Roger works with Robert De Niro, Bruce Dern, Dennis Hopper and Charles Bronson and helps launch the directing careers of Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese and Peter Bogdanovich (among others). PLUS: “The Beast with (not quite) a Million Eyes”! Roger experiments with LSD! Peter Lorre messes with Boris Karloff's head! And the enduring mystery of “The Terror”!

In the first episode of Death of a Starlet, Dorothy Stratten, a stunning seventeen-year-old who turned heads everywhere she went, was stuck working at Dairy Queen. There was no denying, Dorothy was special. But the innumerable qualities that formed her ‘It' Factor also attracted attention from the seedy underbelly of East Vancouver. Paul Snider, known around town as a hustler and a pimp, saw Dorothy's appeal as his meal ticket to Hollywood. But first, he had to convince her to pose nude to enter a Playboy 25th Anniversary playmate hunt.If you want to hear the rest of Death of a Starlet you can binge all seven episodes exclusively on Wondery Plus.On Wondery Plus, you can listen to all your favorite podcasts early and ad-free.
