Co-hosts Maurice Bursztynski and Jonathan Melville join Mike to take on a Patreon request from listener John Atom—Nevil Shute's On the Beach. They dive into both the 1959 Stanley Kramer film and the 2000 TV mini-series directed by Russell Mulcahy. Set in the aftermath of a nuclear holocaust, the story centers on a U.S. submarine that finds refuge in Melbourne, Australia, where residents face the grim reality that the fallout is heading their way.The episode explores the emotional depth and existential dread of both adaptations, from the restrained melancholy of Gregory Peck and Ava Gardner to the more modern approach with Armand Assante and Rachel Ward. With perspectives shaped by different eras, the hosts unpack how each version captures the quiet devastation of waiting for the end.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

With perspectives shaped by different eras, the hosts unpack how each version captures the quiet devastation of waiting for the end.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

Transcript:Da: I en verden der engang var fyldt med liv og lyde, herskede der nu stilhed og ruiner.En: In a world that was once filled with life and sounds, there now ruled silence and ruins.Da: Vågnede foråret stille til live mens solens lys trængte sig vej gennem de mørke skyer.En: Spring quietly came to life as the sunlight pushed its way through the dark clouds.Da: Desværre var ikke alt nyttigt.En: Unfortunately, not everything was useful.Da: Ruinerne strakte sig over den forladte by, med visne blomster, der nænnede at blomstre mellem sprækkerne i asfalten.En: The ruins stretched across the abandoned city, with wilted flowers daring to bloom between the cracks in the asphalt.Da: En gammel skole lyste svagt op ved kanten af byen.En: An old school faintly lit up on the edge of the city.Da: Her begyndte Kasper sin daglige rute, men denne gang, med en plan i tankerne.En: Here, Kasper began his daily routine, but this time, with a plan in mind.Da: Han gabte ved synet af biblioteket, skjult bag slyngplanterne.En: He yawned at the sight of the library, hidden behind the climbing plants.Da: Skolen lignede et tilflugtssted fra en glemt tid.En: The school looked like a refuge from a forgotten time.Da: Med sin lillebror Mikkel ved sin side, gik de fast fremad.En: With his little brother Mikkel by his side, they moved steadily forward.Da: Verden udenfor var farlig, men indenfor de mure lå et håb om en ny begyndelse.En: The world outside was dangerous, but within those walls lay a hope for a new beginning.Da: Freja, den livlige og evigt optimistiske leder, havde allerede fundet vej derhen.En: Freja, the lively and ever-optimistic leader, had already found her way there.Da: "Godt at se jer!"En: "Good to see you!"Da: råbte hun over de knirkende gulvbrædder.En: she shouted over the creaking floorboards.Da: Hendes blå øjne glimtede med energi.En: Her blue eyes sparkled with energy.Da: Hun havde noget i ærmet, noget der kunne skabe en lille ø af normalitet i det kaos, der omgav dem.En: She had something up her sleeve, something that could create a small island of normality in the chaos surrounding them.Da: "Vi starter en skole her," sagde Kasper bestemt og kiggede mod Mikkel, der allerede sad og kiggede i en fortryllende bog om dyrenes verden.En: "We're starting a school here," Kasper said firmly, looking at Mikkel, who was already sitting and looking in an enchanting book about the animal world.Da: Freja nikkede ivrigt igen, klar til at hjælpe.En: Freja eagerly nodded again, ready to help.Da: "Vi kan bruge bøgerne her.En: "We can use the books here.Da: Og se, der er endda tavler!"En: And look, there are even chalkboards!"Da: tilføjede Freja, mens hun pegede mod de støvede, gamle skiferplader.En: added Freja, as she pointed to the dusty old slate boards.Da: Men idyllen blev hurtigt truet.En: But the idyll was quickly threatened.Da: En skælven gik gennem bygningen, og et par vinduer klirrede.En: A tremor went through the building, and a few windows rattled.Da: Udenfor, lød der råb og tumult.En: Outside, there were shouts and upheaval.Da: En gruppe raiders nærmede sig, ivrige efter at stjæle, hvad de kunne finde.En: A group of raiders approached, eager to steal whatever they could find.Da: Kasper vidste, han skulle handle hurtigt.En: Kasper knew he had to act quickly.Da: Freja greb straks en jernstang, mens Kasper sikrede dørene.En: Freja immediately grabbed an iron rod while Kasper secured the doors.Da: Mikkel blev skjult i et gammelt garderobeskab.En: Mikkel was hidden in an old wardrobe.Da: Raiderne bragede mod dørene, men hverken Kasper eller Freja bøjede sig for frygten.En: The raiders pounded against the doors, but neither Kasper nor Freja yielded to fear.Da: I stedet vinkede de til deres medborgere i skjul, der svarede med at fremkomme fra deres gemmesteder og sammen møde truslen.En: Instead, they gestured to their fellow citizens in hiding, who responded by emerging from their hiding places to confront the threat together.Da: De arbejdede i fællesskab, forsvarede skolen og hinanden.En: They worked collectively, defending the school and one another.Da: Med muskelkraft og mod tvang de raiderne til retræte.En: With muscle and courage, they forced the raiders to retreat.Da: Kasper, der nu indså vigtigheden af samarbejde, indså også betydningen af at stole på andre.En: Kasper, now realizing the importance of cooperation, also understood the significance of trusting others.Da: Sammen kunne de genopbygge noget meningsfuldt i en verden, hvor alt andet syntes tabt.En: Together, they could rebuild something meaningful in a world where everything else seemed lost.Da: Da truslen var forsvundet, samledes de alle omkring den lille skole, hvor døre og vinduer blev repareret, bøger blev delt, og inspirerende læring fandt sted igen.En: When the threat had disappeared, they all gathered around the small school, where doors and windows were repaired, books were shared, and inspiring learning took place once again.Da: Mikkel smilede op til sin bror.En: Mikkel smiled up at his brother.Da: "Skal vi lære om påsken nu?"En: "Shall we learn about påsken now?"Da: spurgte han ivrigt.En: he asked eagerly.Da: Kasper nikkede varmt, mens Freja fandt en bog om traditionerne omkring helligdagen.En: Kasper nodded warmly, while Freja found a book about the traditions surrounding the holiday.Da: Den lille skole blev et lys i mørket, et fristed for dem, der havde brug for det.En: The little school became a light in the darkness, a sanctuary for those who needed it.Da: Og for Kasper og Freja blev det symbolet på noget uundgåeligt løfterigt – en ny begyndelse i forårssolen.En: And for Kasper and Freja, it became the symbol of something inevitably promising—a new beginning in the spring sunshine.

This episode begins with a reflection on this podcast project reaching its 50th episode. I share some additional background and future plans, including some of the symbolism behind the WAI logo. This episode introduces some ideas from the article, Indigeneity as a Post-Apocalyptic Genealogical Metaphor, which explores the metaphysics of indigeneity - Indigenous metaphysics through a global Indigenous consciousness. In conclusion, a diverse range of Indigenous experiences are presented in the constellation of Indigeneities identified as Elder/Local, Continental/Regional, Diasporic, Creole, Born-Again, Global/Trans-Indigenous, which are described in the artice, A Wīnak Perspective on Cosmovisíon Maya and Eco-Justice Education. Terms: Yamanik (Green Stone/Jade in K'iche'-Maya), Hoa/Soa (Partner/Companion – Pair in lea faka-Tonga and gagana Sāmoa).

Send us a textDo you remember the Colony from 2013? It starred Laurence Fishburne, Bill Paxton, and that kid from the Air Bud movies. Don't worry, we don't remember a lot about this movie either, and since it hasn't been that long since its release, we're kind of worried as to why we haven't rewatched it or why we can't remember a whole lot from it. But we do remember that this film has a lot of snow and cannibals, so it can't be that bad, can it?Do You Remember Liking This Movie?

Fear is often Man's greatest enemy. But when there is nothing left to lose, there is everything to gain.... And with everything to gain, where is the enemy? The Outer Quiet by Herbert D. Kastle. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.If the name Herbert D. Kastle rings a bell, it's likely not because of his science fiction work. Kastle, born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1924, was primarily known as a thriller novelist, with an impressive seventeen titles to his name. Though his contributions to science fiction were modest—three short stories in the 1950s and another three in the 1960s—he gained some recognition for his 1964 sci-fi novel The Reassembled Man.In addition to his literary work, Kastle's 1975 novel Cross-Country was adapted into a feature film in 1983. He also ventured into television, co-writing an episode of Bonanza that aired in 1967.Today's tale of woe in a post-apocalyptic world is on page 94 in the May 1955 publication of If Worlds of Science Fiction, The Outer Quiet by Herbert D. Kastle…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A picture is worth a thousand words—especially if they're Martian words and nobody can understand them. So Mars put on a spectacular for Earth, using the skies as a TV screen. This proved the superiority of their science. But their morals—Wow!

Taking place within a future apocalyptic wasteland, Denzel Washington plays the titular Eli and he's traversing through this wasteland with an all-important book (hence the title)...along with a super-sharp machete blade, shotgun, killer instincts, and car battery-powered IPod Classic.  Things get hairy once he arrives in the wrong town where the local villain Carnegie (Gary Oldman) wants to take possession of this mysterious book.  And what results is an increasingly violent stand-off between Eli and Carnegie's small army of marauders lead by Redridge played by the late, great Ray Stevenson.  Along the way, Eli takes in a sort-of-protégé Solara played by Mila Kunis.  Directed by Allen and Albert Hughes (Menace II Society, Dead Presidents), this bleak action thriller borrows a LOT from The Mad Max Saga but it has a strong enough cast to keep things interesting....   Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

After Manchester City's first win since October, David Mooney is joined by City fan Chris Higginbottom and, from Sporting News, Dom Farrell, to discuss such a momentous occasion. From the win over Nottingham Forest, there's a look at Jack Grealish in the middle, Stefan Ortega as the number one, and the value of the non-Erling Haaland players getting amongst the goals again. They also reflect on the 2-0 defeat at Anfield and examine the talking points that came from the game, including Guardiola's six-finger gesture and the make-up of the away end at Liverpool. Nick from the Man City Fans Foodbank Support group updates us on what happened with their planned joint-action with Liverpool fans and the FSA, with the Stop Exploiting Loyalty campaign. Plus, we hear from the former City winger Mark Kennedy, who is discussing his two seasons at Maine Road, taking in all the highs and lows - including the part he played in promotion at Blackburn and the circumstances that led to his departure in 2001. ========== To get more podcasts or to listen without the ads, join our Patreon.
