Podcast appearances and mentions of Philip Seymour Hoffman

In this episode of the Legacy Lawyers Podcast, Nathan Croxford and Brian Edwards look at the estate of rock legend Ozzy Osbourne to uncover valuable lessons in planning ahead. They talk about how Sharon Osbourne helped structure his assets and likeness, why it is important to keep an estate plan updated over time, and how trusts can provide for children without turning them into “trust fund babies.” Along the way, they compare Ozzy's approach with other celebrity cases including Prince, Robin Williams, and Philip Seymour Hoffman to show both the mistakes and the successes that families can learn from to protect their own legacies.

Who knows how far this episode will reach with something like "FEMALE" in the title, huh? Oh, we're only joking, YOU know why. In part 2 of our "August-Where-We-Cover-Films-With-Female-in-The-Title", we're looking at Susan Streitfeld's FEMALE PERVERSIONS. A film of theatrical quality and its own distinct style, it may not appeal to everyone. It may alienate others, and generate wonderment for some. It's hard to argue that the film has something to offer within the scope of exploring woman creatives and voices in cinema. Just watch out for the one-and-only Clancy Brown shine for no more than 3 scenes and basically Philip Seymour Hoffman this!

Part 4 of Boogie Mikes is our film study of PTA's Punch-Drunk Love, starring Adam Sandler, Emily Watson and Philip Seymour Hoffman, and we immediately have to reckon with the RomCom genre before even starting our conversation on this one.

It's red letter day here at The Everything Sequel Podcast because we get to talk about the feature film directorial debut of J.J. Abrams as we discuss Mission: Impossible III. You'll hear what we think of J.J. Abrams debut mystery box that doesn't get solved until the final film in the series by another director, the pros and cons of giving a talented actor like Philip Seymour Hoffman a juicy, villainous role but then decide not to give him much of anything to do and conversations about the 90's television drama quality that Abrams gives to his first movie.

l'm a star. I am a big, bright, shining star. In a world where one man has only seen 30 or so movies comes a desire to learn from a master. A master of film. A master of cinema. A master who has led such a sad life.  Logan seeks the knowledge and he turns to his own personal “Yoda”; Keithie. Join Logan & Keithie on a wild adventure to discover as we watch along with a new movie each episode in THE MOVIE EDUCATION OF LOGAN CROSLAND. This episode, Logan, Keithie & Tim talk exotic pictures with Boogie Nights. Mark Wahlberg, Burt Reynolds, Julianne More and and amazing cast (minus Philip Seymour Hoffman) star in this probably true to life film about the wild seventies and eighties in southern California and the adult film industry.  Wait, didn't we already talk porn in Episode 8? Yeah, we did. So what of it.  Can l kiss you? Please? Can l kiss you on the mouth? No, Philip Seymour Hoffman, you may not.

As we continue or Summer of Sam, we bring in Sam Elliott and finally rolling into the lanes of one of cinema's most beloved cult classics: The Big Lebowski. Starring Jeff Bridges as the effortlessly iconic “The Dude,” John Goodman as the unhinged Vietnam vet Walter, Steve Buscemi as the soft-spoken Donny, Julianne Moore as the enigmatic Maude, and John Turturro as the unforgettable Jesus Quintana, this 1998 Coen Brothers comedy had us laughing, quoting, and marveling at how well it still holds up. Whether it's the surreal dream sequences, the endlessly quotable dialogue, or the offbeat charm of every character, The Big Lebowski remains as fresh and funny as ever.Revisiting this film felt less like watching a movie and more like hanging out with old friends. The humor has aged beautifully—if anything, it's even sharper now that we're older and more attuned to its satirical brilliance. With a supporting cast including Philip Seymour Hoffman, Tara Reid, and David Huddleston, the film continues to deliver unexpected laughs and layered performances. The Dude abides, and so do we. Join us for a nostalgic, hilarious, and surprisingly thoughtful conversation about what makes this film a true masterpiece of modern comedy.Stick around for a round of Trivia after the conversation.Safe bowling, dudes.

**THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS**Fake it till you make it… or murder your way there. This week on Film Is Lit, we dive deep into "The Talented Mr. Ripley," a sun-drenched psychological thriller soaked in envy, identity, and deception. Written by Patricia Highsmith and adapted for the screen with elegance and dread by Anthony Minghella, the film features standout performances from a stacked cast. We also pay tribute to one of our all-time favorites, Philip Seymour Hoffman, who steals every scene he's in as the effortlessly snarky Freddie Miles.#filmislitpodcast #thetalentedmrripley #patriciahighsmith #mattdamon #judelaw #gwynethpaltrow #CateBlanchett #philipseymourhoffman #jackdavenport #filmnoirvibes #thrillerfilms #adaptationanalysis #booksvsmovies #filmpodcast #cinephiles #litlovers #criterioncollection #90scinema #filmcommunity #nowplaying #spoileralert #moviepodcast

In this week's Born to Watch, the lads swing for the fences with their deep dive Moneyball (2011) Review. Whitey, Dan on the Land, and Will “The Worky” take to the mound to dissect why this unconventional baseball flick, starring Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill, continues to resonate over a decade later.From the get-go, it's clear this isn't your typical sports movie review. The team kicks off with backyard renovations, foot fetish tangents, and a laugh-out-loud discussion on the bizarre world of Japanese vending machines, classic Born to Watch territory. But once they find their groove, it's all baseball, banter, and brilliance.Moneyball, based on the true story of Oakland A's GM Billy Beane, gets the full pod treatment. The trio wax lyrical about Pitt's understated performance, Hill's against-type turn as the socially awkward numbers guy, and Philip Seymour Hoffman's quietly simmering portrayal of sceptical coach Art Howe. Whitey makes the case for this being one of Pitt's finest performances, yes, even better than his Oscar-winning turn in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Dan and Will aren't far behind in their praise, though they're quick to point out the poetic license the film takes with some of its real-life counterparts.Of course, it wouldn't be Born to Watch without the gang tackling the “overs and unders.” Will throws a curveball with a surprisingly low watch count, while Whitey admits he's clocked in over 40 viewings. Dan, as always, brings the analytical fire, no surprise for a man who appreciates Michael Lewis' storytelling DNA, also behind The Big Short.The trio also tackles one of the episode's core questions: Why are baseball movies so damn good? Is it the history? The romance? The slower pace that allows for actual acting? Whatever the formula, it works. From The Natural and Field of Dreams to Major League and Bull Durham, the guys rattle off their favourites with the kind of passion you only get from true movie lovers.There's also an appreciation for the film's dry, cerebral tone. Unlike other sports flicks that rely on big plays and locker room speeches, Moneyball thrives on boardroom tension, Excel spreadsheets, and quiet moments of doubt. Yet somehow, it's riveting. It's a film about math, risk, and the emotional cost of change, and yet it's as compelling as any game-winning homer.Listeners are treated to the usual podcast hallmarks: mock trailers, roast reviews (with one critic thoroughly torn apart), and a beautifully read back-of-the-DVD synopsis that outshines the studio blurb. Whitey's disdain for the critic who panned the movie is particularly entertaining, while Dan gives a thoughtful defence of Moneyball's cinematic liberties.The episode also veers into classic BTW chaos. There's a spirited debate on the merits of Jack and Jill (spoiler: there are none), a nostalgic dive into The Inbetweeners as a sleeper hit of 2011, and an epic sidetrack into surfing journalism and Jonah Hill's transformation from comedy darling to surf-culture punching bag. It's podcast whiplash in the best possible way.As always, the “Ordinary People” segment stands out, offering a nuanced examination of the film's characters and the performances that bring them to life. The pod pays homage to Philip Seymour Hoffman, laments Jonah Hill's real-life reputation despite his on-screen brilliance, and even finds time to praise an uncredited Spike Jonze cameo that nearly steals the film.In the end, Moneyball gets the respect it deserves, a deeply human story wrapped in a sports movie shell. For the Born to Watch crew, it's not just about baseball; it's about challenging the system, betting on the misfits, and finding magic in the margins.So whether you're a sabermetrics savant or just love a good underdog story, this episode is a must-listen.Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts!Join the conversation:Is Moneyball the smartest sports movie ever made?Could you build a winning team with just data?And is Brad Pitt's Billy Beane his most underrated role?#BornToWatch #Moneyball #BradPitt #JonahHill #BaseballMovies #Sabermetrics #SportsMovies #FilmPodcast #AaronSorkin #MichaelLewis #PhilipSeymourHoffman #UnderdogStory #MovieNight

Philip Seymour Hoffman is a towering figure in American cinema whose death in 2014 left a big gaping hole in the culture. I really think there has never been anyone really like him, before or since, on the screen. In this conversation, Justin Rogers-Cooper joins me to reflect on Hoffman's body of work, the particular power he brought to his performances in a wide range of movies, and the profound legacy he occupies in our “cringe” era.

In recognition of Men's Mental Health Month, I offer this not as a diagnosis but as a mirror—a reflection—of one man's honest reckoning with what it really means to “be a man” in a world that rewards our silence and buries our truth. Every June, we remember the tragic loss of great men—Robin Williams, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Anthony Bourdain. Men who made us laugh, think, feel… and then left us too soon. These weren't weak men. They were men crushed by the quiet torment of expectations they could no longer uphold. And the silence that made it impossible to ask for help. So let me say something that might cost me the stamp of being a “real man” in the eyes of some: Hi. My name is JC Doornick, and I get scared about many things. I know some will read that and think I've betrayed the code. That I've "outed the brotherhood." But I'm tired of pretending. I'm tired of losing men I love to silence. To pride. To pressure. To shame. And if sharing my truth helps even one man remove the mask, it's worth it. Because here's the truth: Being a man today is a zero-sum game.   Episode 97 Resources: Under Saturns Shadow by James Hollis  - https://amzn.to/3F4NvAP ►Follow Dr. JC Doornick and the Makes Sense Academy: Instagram: / drjcdoornick   Facebook:  / makessensepodcast   YouTube:  / drjcdoornick     MAKES SENSE PODCAST Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast: This podcast covers topics that expand human consciousness and performance.

“This podcast will self-destruct in 5 seconds…”We've often talked on this show about the potential of science fiction to become science fact. It's fairly common for even the most out-there concepts discussed here to be on the verge of becoming reality, even if they don't yet fly in the real world, they sometimes will soon. It's more rare for us to tackle a concept that seemed like pure fantasy at the time but that has almost become reality in the present day.But such is the case with Mission: Impossible III and the voice cloning device. As you'll see in this week's episode, this is one piece of spy tech that is suddenly no longer as unrealistic as it was in 2006 when the movie was released. But perhaps more relevant for today are the ethical implications around the existing technology's use…or misuse, as is so often sadly the case.Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to check out the latest episode of Does it Fly? to learn more…Watch the video version of this episode here! https://youtu.be/9fRFdjq0iR4SUGGESTED VIEWING The Mission: Impossible franchise now encompasses a whopping eight movies when you factor in the release of this year's Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning. Something tells us that movie isn't the final anything for these movies, but that's another story. ANYWAY…Our episode today is based primarily around Mission: Impossible III, directed by J.J. Abrams and written by Abrams, Alex Kurtzman, and Roberto Orci. And if those names sound familiar to folks tuning in to this Roddenberry production, you're right, and Tamara gets into just how pivotal this movie ended up being for Paramount and some other key franchises in the episode. Hold your horses, we'll get to it!FURTHER READING Do you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do!Voice Cloning via A.I.As Hakeem points out, this technology seemed pretty far-fetched in 2006 when Mission: Impossible III was released, but actually exists (kinda) today! While there are websites out there that will allow you to enter text and get audio that mimics a celebrity voice, we're not super sure how we feel about that. But here's a pretty well regarded text to voice A.I. service for you to play around with.The Physiology of Voice ChangingFor a quick overview of how your voice actually works, you'll want to go here. This should give you a new appreciation for how impressionists are able to uncannily mimic other human voices (not to mention non-human sounds). Think of legends like Robin Williams, Dana Carvey, or the incomparable Rich Little for people who didn't need tech to do this. It's the kind of thing that everyone thinks they can do, but it's a unique talent when it can be done right.Noise CancelationIt's obviously not a 1:1 ratio here, but the science of how noise canceling headphones work is informative when it comes to how this theoretical device might be able to change your voice in real time as you're speaking. That Poem is RealThe poem that Philip Seymour Hoffman's Owen Davian is forced to read at gunpoint in this movie in order to get his voice saying every possible sound in the English language? It's real and it has a kind of amusing story from its author behind it.The Mission: Impossible and Star Trek ConnectionSome of what Tamara details about the early production and creative struggles of Mission: Impossible III can be found here. For some earlier connections between the Star Trek and Mission: Impossible franchises, check this out!The Challenges of Voice ActorsA.I. has become a central issue in the labor struggles facing all creative talent recently, including actors. Fortunately, one group of voice actors has banded together to try and get more recognition for their craft.WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?The Mission: Impossible movies follow in the tradition of the James Bond franchise in their embrace of wild but plausible technology. We took a look at not one, not two, but three pieces of such tech in our episode on Goldfinger which you can watch here.Final Destination Bloodlines is in theaters now and we went back to the very beginning to examine the central concept of the franchise.

For this episode of Sound Speed Action, we're continuing our countdown to Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning. We're joined by returning guest and friend of the pod, Chris Cheng, to break down the franchise's third installment — Mission Impossible III (2006).It's a movie of firsts: JJ Abrams (of Lost and Alias fame) makes his feature film directorial debut, Simon Pegg arrives as tech whiz Benji, and it's the only Mission film ever co-produced with China. Oh — and it dropped right in the middle of the Tom Cruise Turbulence Era: the Oprah couch jump, the Matt Lauer meltdown, the Paramount fallout, and an infamous episode of South Park.Our conversation starts with the highs, but quickly uncovers some shared frustrations:* Abrams overindulging in his signature moves (lens flares, violin overload, blown-out colors, endless close-ups)* Wasting powerhouse talents like Philip Seymour Hoffman and Michelle Monaghan* Failing to make the part of the movie that is in China a meaningful, fun, colorful, vibrant part and character of the story* Skipping the iconic “light the fuse” title sequence* A very long rooftop scene of “I need you to trust me” (you'll know it when you see it)* The fulcrum scene that really tests your ability to suspend your disbeliefStill, the movie isn't without its charms:* The mystery box tool of “the rabbits foot” here is mysterious and fun* New characters played by Keri Russell, Maggie Q, Billy Crudup, and Laurence Fishburne* Set piece standouts like the Vatican heist and Davian's bridge escape* Philip Seymour Hoffman channeling straight menace in one of the creepiest villain performances of the series (but we have some issues with this too…)This entry in the franchise is a very divisive one. It marks the halfway point for us in this franchise countdown. But get ready and hold onto your butts because this latter half of the franchise consistently kicks things up a few gears. Back with more soon!Mission Impossible III is streaming now on Prime Video and Paramount+. It's also available to rent or buy on all major platforms. This is a public episode.

For their 195th episode, two imposter film critics, two murderous dads, and two non-Italian school teachers, Will Johnson and Don Shanahan, stay in the monumental year of 1999 for one more week with another cornerstone film. Lapped at the time by the likes of "The Matrix," "American Beauty," "Magnolia," and "Fight Club," stands the late Anthony Minghella's salacious "The Talented Mr. Ripley" starring the early white-hot coals of Matt Damon, Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Philip Seymour Hoffman. Minghella's follow-up to his Oscar-winning "The English Patient," might have aged better than those previously mentioned 1999 bangers, and our guys are here to dote on its top-to-bottom lavishness.

Welcome back to the Video Store Podcast and a happy belated Record Store Day to you! Since you hang out at the Video Store, you are obviously a fan of physical media, and I hope that includes vinyl records. I've selected four films this week that look at films featuring records and record stores. High Fidelity (2000)First up is High Fidelity featuring John Cusack, Iben Hjejle, Todd Luiso, Jack Black, Lisa Bonet, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Joan Cusack, and Tim Robbins. Reeling from a big break-up with Laura (Iben Hjejle), Rob Gordon (John Cusack), recounts to the audience his top 5 break-ups of all time, the same way he would his top 5 favorite albums. As he walks the audience through his break-ups, he starts to work through his relational issues. It's a film about working through your own problems, taking responsibility for how you've hurt other people, and trying to be better. And with its setting of Rob's record store, a killer soundtrack, and all the vinyl records everywhere, it's a great pick for this theme. Sing Street (2016)Sing Street is the best film nobody saw in 2016. Set in the early-mid 80s, Conor is forced to change schools due to the economic downturn in Ireland at the time and his parents' looming separation. Struggling to fit in, Conor finds solace in music and music videos with his brother Brendan. Conor decides he wants to start a band that forms an accidental community among his bandmates, an aspiring model, Raphina, and even the school bully. Conor and his friends start to find hope through music, even in a seemingly hopeless and desperate situation. There are loads of things to love about Sing Street, but the original music really makes this film something special. The soundtrack even got a vinyl release, so look for it at your local record shop, though, heads up, it's a bit hard to track down in the US. Pirate Radio (released as The Boat That Rocked in the UK) (2009)Set in 1966, Pirate Radio tells the story of a young teenage boy, Carl, who is sent to live with his godfather on Radio Rock, the pirate radio station ship anchored in the North Sea, broadcasting rock music to the UK. Featuring a killer ensemble cast, including Philip Seymour Hoffman, Billy Nighy, Rhys Ifans, Nick Frost, Emma Thompson, January Jones, Kenneth Branagh, Chris O'Dowd, and so many more, this is a wonderful film about getting into trouble for the right reasons. The film centers on the love of music and finding where you fit in. Plus, look at all that beautiful, vintage radio equipment and the shelves and shelves of records. Absolutely gorgeous. Empire Records (1995)The last film I've selected for today is Empire Records. While set in a record shop, this is a film that's really more about finding out who you are and finding where you fit. For the group of young misfits that work at Empire Records, it's right there at the record store. This is a story about protecting that found family and celebrating the good things in your life. Plus you'll want to have a dance party with your chosen family at the end of the movie. Thanks for joining us this week at the Video Store Podcast. As the great philosopher Corrine Bailey Rae says, “Girl, put your records on. Tell me your favorite song. Just go ahead let your hair down,” while you spin some records and movies about records.

Welcome to Director Watch! On this AwardsWatch podcast, co-hosts Ryan McQuade and Jay Ledbetter attempt to breakdown, analyze, and ultimately, get inside the mind of some of cinema's greatest auteurs. In doing so, they will look at their filmographies, explore what drives them artistically and what makes their decision making process so fascinating. Add in a few silly tangents and a fun game at the end of the episode and you've got yourself a podcast we truly hope you love. On episode 90 of the Director Watch Podcast, the boys are joined by film critic Tom O'Brien to discuss the final film in their Mike Nichols series, Charlie Wilson's War (2007). For the last film in Mike Nichols' filmography, he attempts again to try and make a political commentary that will stand out as one of best to ever get made. As someone who has tackled the human condition so well throughout his films, Nichols has also chased the idea of making a political film from his films of the 70s, to even a film on this series in Primary Colors. This time working with a script from Aaron Sorkin, Nichols does his best to tell the story of a Texas congressman and the CIA who worked together on a covert operation to support the Afghan mujahideen during the Soviet–Afghan War. Led by Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, and Philip Seymour Hoffman's stellar performances, Charlie Wilson's War is mostly the best political film Nichols made; you just wonder if he ever needed to chase this whale in the first place considering this film is still a lesser script from the acclaimed screenwriter behind it. Ryan, Jay, and Tom break down their thoughts on the film, Sorkin as a figure in Hollywood, how uneventful the film feels, Hanks wanting Nichols for this film, the greatness of Hoffman, as well as the guys final rankings of Nichols' filmography, and a reminder of the next film series the guys will be covering after their upcoming bonus episode for Nichols' Angels in America. You can listen to the Director Watch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music and more. This podcast runs 2h. The guys will be back next week with a bonus episode for the Mike Nichols' series with a review of his acclaimed miniseries, Angels in America. You can rent it via iTunes and Amazon Prime rental or stream on Max in preparation for the next episode of Director Watch. Till then, let's get into it. Music: MUSICALIFE, from Pond5 (intro) and “B-3” from BoxCat Games Nameless: The Hackers RPG Soundtrack (outro).

In this episode of Get Scene Unscripted, actor Adam Laborde shares his wild journey through Hollywood, addiction, and redemption, revealing how his relationship with Philip Seymour Hoffman reignited his passion for acting.

Packed with humor, heart, and raw honesty, this episode is a must-listen for actors and film lovers alike.

Featuring a powerhouse performance by Philip Seymour Hoffman in one of his final roles, the film explores the murky moral territory of counterterrorism and intelligence work in a post-9/11 world.Directed by Anton Corbijn, A Most Wanted Man takes us into the shadowy world of international espionage, set in the bustling port city of Hamburg, Germany—a crucial location in the intelligence community, especially after the 9/11 attacks.The film follows Günther Bachmann (Philip Seymour Hoffman), a weary but brilliant German intelligence officer leading a covert team tasked with tracking down potential terrorist threats. His latest target is Issa Karpov (Grigoriy Dobrygin), a Chechen refugee with possible extremist ties, who seeks asylum and access to a significant inheritance.As various players—including a determined human rights lawyer (Rachel McAdams), a wary banker (Willem Dafoe), and interfering American intelligence operatives—become entangled in the case, Bachmann is forced to navigate a treacherous web of political manoeuvring and ethical dilemmas.This isn't your typical spy thriller—it's a thinking person's espionage film, perfect for fans of John le Carré's work or anyone who enjoys intricate, morally ambiguous storytelling. While it may be too slow-paced for younger audiences, it's a gripping watch for those who appreciate substance over spectacle.With its intelligent script, stellar performances, and unsettlingly realistic take on modern espionage, A Most Wanted Man is a must-watch for fans of tense, character-driven thrillers. So grab a stiff drink, light a cigarette (if you must), and join us as we unravel the shadowy world of international intelligence.

In honor of the 25th anniversary of Paul Thomas Anderson' Magnolia (1999), Bald Move is rereleasing their coverage. Special thanks to Lauren, Anne, and Rick who chipped in to commission this podcast on Magnolia for Alex Myers as a Christmas (!!!) present. Jim and I had never seen Magnolia, the Paul Thomas Anderson classic before now, and wow is it a doozy. Starring greats such as William H. Macy, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Julianne Moore, to name just a few, it involves a day in the life of a dozen or so characters on a collision course with fate and coincidence, and what they'll learn about themselves and each other along the way. Fueled by raw emotion and melodrama, we were intrigued by the complex tale being woven before our eyes. If you haven't seen it, check it out before we spoil it for you on this podcast, because it's an amazing film. Thanks again Lauren, Anne, and Rick! We couldn't do it without you. If you'd like to commission a podcast for yourself or a loved on, check out our shop for full details!
