Podcasts about Philip Wylie

In which the Mister and Monsters join me in reviewing THE INVISIBLE MAN (1933) which we caught on the TCM app or currently to buy/rent on Prime.  Directed by James Whale, from H.G. Wells' novel, a screenplay by R.C. Sherriff and uncredited screenplay credits to Preston Sturges and Philip Wylie.  The story revolves around Dr. Griffin (a deliciously demented Claude Rains in his first speaking role), who's found a formula that enables him to be invisible which he plans to use to gain fame and fortune and to be worthy of Flora (Gloria Stuart), but in the process starts to succumb to a madness linked to an ingredient used in the formula.  A true gem in the history of cinema and one of the stronger entries in the Universal Monsters films.  The film clocks in at 1 h and 11 m and is rated Approved according to IMDB.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.

Tomorrow was a stand-alone radio program produced by ABC in 1956, in which Welles played the role of narrator. Broadcast on October 17, 1956, the program is generally described as a propaganda piece for national defense, seemingly with the intent to convince viewers that it's important to have a national defense program. Mona Freeman and Marshall Thompson star. Based on the Philip Wylie book.

On Sunday January 1st, 1956 NBC's Monitor broadcast New World Today. 1956 was a Presidential election year. At the time of this broadcast, Dwight Eisenhower, who'd had a heart attack in September, was still debating whether he would run for a second term. He'd decide in February, eventually winning re-election. After the censuring of Senator Joseph McCarthy in 1954, the Red Scare had subsided, overtaken by fear of communism in other parts of the world and general war with Russia. Meanwhile, In January of 1956 Orson Welles appeared with The New York City Center Theater Company playing King Lear. He was finally home again. In February he traveled to Las Vegas where he performed a variety act at the Riviera Hotel. Welles was then contracted by Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz to create a TV pilot for Desilu Productions. The short film was written and directed by Orson Welles, based on the short story "Youth from Vienna" by John Collier. Joi Lansing and Rick Jason star as a narcissistic couple faced with an irresistible temptation concocted by a scientist. Welles was the on-screen narrator. It was called The Fountain of Youth and considered a dark comedy. Desi Arnaz conceived the series, proposing to Welles that he host and narrate. Arnaz later wrote that before signing the deal he clarified the finances with Welles: "I am not RKO. This is my 'Babalu' money." Filming took five days in early May. The total cost was nearly fifty-five thousand dollars. Arnaz reported that CBS gave the series a slot, with General Foods as a sponsor, but the challenges in getting Welles to commit to a series lasting more than thirty weeks were daunting. The series did not go to air. The pilot was later broadcast on September 16th, 1958, during NBC's Colgate Theatre. That Spring, the Rock n' Roll era officially arrived. On April 6th, 1956, Elvis Presely signed a three-film deal with Paramount Pictures. By the end of the month, his single, “Heartbreak Hotel” rose to the top of the charts. It would remain there into June. Meanwhile, Orson Welles appeared as himself on October 15th, 1956 in a very famous episode of I Love Lucy. Two days later, he was on the radio for a special one-off program adapting Philip Wylie's 1954 novel about post-nuclear civilization. It was called Tomorrow and syndicated by ABC and the Federal Civil Defense Administration. The next month, on November 13th, 1956, his daughter's first birthday, Welles appeared on NBC Radio's Biography In Sound for his old mentor Alexander Woollcott, who had passed away in 1943.

Arrested by military intelligence, Philip Wylie (1902-1971) went on to become an adviser to the chairman of the Joint Congressional Committee for Atomic Energy. At least nine films have been made out of stories he published which ranged across topics including ecology, science fiction and the threat of nuclear holocaust.

I have always loved the classic Universal monster movies from the 1930's. This month I am exploring one movie each week to mine it for leadership and compliance lessons. For this first entry in this short series on Popcorn and Compliance, I look at the original Island of Lost Souls is a 1932 American pre-Code science-fiction horror film, and the first sound film adaptation of H. G. Wells' 1896 novel The Island of Dr. Moreau. The film was directed by Erle C. Kenton, from a script co-written by science fiction author Philip Wylie. It stars Charles Laughton, Richard Arlen, Leila Hyams, Bela Lugosi, and Kathleen Burke. The plot centers on a remote South Pacific island where mad scientist, Dr. Moreau, secretly conducts experiments to accelerate evolution in plants and animals, with horrific consequences. Featuring depictions of cruelty, animal-human hybrids, and irreligious ideas, the release of Island of Lost Souls was embroiled in controversy. Banned in some countries for decades, Island of Lost Souls has become an influential film and has acquired cult film status. Resources Island of Lost Souls Review Learn more about your ad choices.

To hear Part 1 Click Here: https://anchor.fm/seth-the-storyteller/episodes/Jack-Katz-On-Creativity--Synchronicity--Fear--and-Romantic-Beauty-and-Human-Tragedy-e2hs83 When we left off with Jack, a time traveler had arrived from the future, only to find he was not far enough in the past. The computers had taken over. Things sounded grim. Replication A recurring theme in The First Kingdom is the rise and fall of civilizations and the events that eventually bring about their destruction. A desire for immortality is among the motivations that are often driving the creators and innovators. One solution created is a memory serum that retains the entire scope of a culture's knowledge. The serum can be used to share this knowledge with the replicants called Humanoids. The Humanoids were made by a man who had a near-death experience as a child and wanted to stave off death for everyone. At one point, he takes the memory serum to prevent his own inevitable death. The Fiction We Know is Replicated Tarzan is not an original story. According to Jack, there are no original stories. Jack in the Jungle and Jack the Lion Tamer were both written by PT Barnum and are the basis for the Tarzan stories written by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Gladiator written by Philip Wylie which Jack believes was the inspiration for Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel's seminal Superman. Jack even shares a personal story about these two co-creators in the first part of our first podcast. People are Steeped in Ambivalence Jack is exacerbated by people steeped in the same ambivalence. He believes people are terrified and need to hold on to something. Jack has found the god of Einstein and it has allowed him to focus on completing the Beyond the Beyond. When Jack met Charles Clarence C.C. Beck, who was the first artist assigned to draw the character of Captain Marvel, originally dubbed Captain Thunder by writer Bill Parker, "He knew I was supposed to do Captain Marvel Jr." "He already knew about me from Bulletman and Bulletdog." Jack remembers Beck enjoyed designing swords and hilts, and that he was a "Wonderful little gentleman." Maybe it has to do with his belief that Captain Marvel was better than Superman. When Jack wrote his own story of a character with immense power he named it The Last Immortal. He then introduced a girl who was dying of cancer and asked, "What can superpowers do against cancer?" Read more at sethsingletonstoryteller.com Jack's Biography As an artist, Jack has spent his whole life dedicated to drawing, writing and getting his thoughts out to the universe. His working life as an artist has spanned a number of waves of comic book development and his paintings reach down into the present from their original roots back in the early years of 20th century American illustration and art. His most enduring accomplishment has been the production of the original 24-issue graphic novel known as "The First Kingdom". Many have said it was the very first independently published graphic novel and it began to be re-issued as a four-volume set in the spring of 2005. Aside from his drawing and painting, Jack has written extensively through the years on his ideas exploring the place humans have taken in the universe and the directions in which they may or may not take in the future. Today he teaches anatomy for figurative art students and continues to work on his comic book projects. Currently in the works as well are a number of publications and videos presenting his distinctive ideas of teaching figure drawing. His recent publications included the first volume of a collection of sketches Jack has done over the past decades that illustrate for the advanced figurative art student the many different ways in which the dynamic human form can be --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/seth-the-storyteller/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/seth-the-storyteller/support

We've got a bona fide Foy Unit gem for you this week on the podcast - courtesy of screenwriter Crane Wilbur, director William C. McGann, and a personality-studded cast which includes studio up-and-comer Jane Bryan, show fave Sheila Bromley, Sig Ruman in The Wedding Night  demon patriarch-mode, lovable contract players Elisabeth Risdon, Dorothy Peterson, and Henry O'Neil - plus wildcards Susan Hayward & Esther Dale. Girls on Probation is an archetypal late-30s Warner Brothers programmer, a tale of sinners and saints in the hands of an angry class system - with nothing but the emerging New Deal agencies to keep our protagonist out of the flames.     It's not all progressivism and light, though - not by a long shot. For one thing, there's something awfully wrong with the film's condemnatory attitude towards Hilda Engstrom's matriarchal family - an observation which affords the panel an opportunity to heap opprobrium upon Philip Wylie and his mid-20th century Jordan Peterson-style stunts. Other topics include: Dickie Jones/Dickie Moore, what might have been for Jane Bryan, and our collective sense of the rapidly crystallizing Reagan persona: the brashly virtuous Midwesterner whose path to success-without-regrets is greased by Ideology.  Also: Gareth discusses Michael Rogin's Ronald Reagan,' the Movie, and Other Episodes in Political Demonology (1987)  Follow us at: Facebook Follow Romy on Twitter at @rahrahtempleton Follow Gareth on Twitter at @helenreddymades Follow David on Twitter at @milescoverdale "Driving Reagan theme' by Gareth Hedges

Los superhéroes están de moda y Los Retronautas con la ayuda de Antonio Monfort se lanzan a explorar los orígenes de la figura del superhéroe; un viaje que nos lleva desde los héroes clásicos como Hércules a mitos literarios del s. XIX como son Drácula o Sherlock Holmes. Hablamos también de las primeras apariciones de superhombres en la Ciencia-Ficción y en especial de la novela "Gladiador" de Philip Wylie, considerada por alguna crítica como un claro precedente de Supermán. No nos olvidaremos de precedentes pulp como Doc Savage y por fín llegaremos al azaroso nacimiento de la figura de Supermán, el primer superhéroe en sentido estricto. Como acompañamiento musical suenan los temas "Blowout" de los Straitjackets, el disco "Music for heavenly bodies" de Paul Tanner y despedimos con "Sunshine Superman" de Mel Torme.

It just may be the worst thing about America today: our view of human nature. If you listen to almost any -- and I mean, any -- commentator, speechmaker, pundit, or spokesperson, of literally any and every organization, institution, medium, or government office, you are going to hear about taking charge, and imposing control -- of everything and everybody. (I hate that they'll now ticket you if you're caught smoking in New York City. That's insane! No more "Shake Shack" for us, I am dashed to say.) The pitiful thing is, their idea of human nature is not true. It is simply not true. We are being fed an understanding of human nature that is inaccurate. It is innacurate from stem to stern. Therefore there is no HOPE being offered. Everything is rooted in a fallacy. "Shallow Hal" This is Episode 50 of "PZ's Podcast". Philip Wylie's going to help us out again, but so is wonderful William Inge, and inspired Frenchman Jacques Demy. I'm going to let them take us there, to Strawberry Fields ... Forever.

Another one of those unknown authors. But he has so much to tell us, first about sex and then about Christianity. About the former, he puts first things first. About the latter, he puts Jesus on the "Enola Gay". Would that Philip Wylie were here today, to put Jesus on a predator drone, or on one of those Navy SEAL helicopters which flew into Pakistan recently.

Philip Wylie was a prophet in the war between the sexes. His 1951 novel "The Disappearance", in which, through an unexplained 'cosmic blink', all the women disappear from the world of the men and all the men disappear from the world of the women, is so noble and so disturbing, so wrenching and so uplifting, so wise and so uncommonly religious, that it becomes required reading for everyone who is a man and everyone who is a woman.
