Fighter pilots have “Top Gun.” Race car drivers have “F1” and “Days Of Thunder.” What movie did firefighters have up until 1991 to put their heroics on full display? Nothing. Absolutely nothing, until a director, mostly known for making comedies, decided that firefighters finally get their day in the sun. That director was Ron Howard and the movie that helped the aura of firefighters burn so bright is the movie I'm reviewing in this episode of Movies Merica. That movie is “Backdraft.” Kurt Russell and William Baldwin play Stephen and Brian McCaffrey, two brothers who grew up in a family of firefighters in Chicago. To put it mildly, they don't like each other very much. Stephen is a veteran firefighter and Brian is his younger brother still trying to carve out his niche in life. Brian decides his latest venture is to go into the family biz and fight fire too. Add to the family friction, a series of mysterious deaths due to fires, that may or may not be murder. Many of you have seen this classic, but for you of those who haven't, is it worth checking out? Watch this episode of Movies Merica to find out! “Backdraft” also stars Robert De Niro, Donald Sutherland, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Scott Glenn, Rebecca De Mornay, Jason Gedrick, J.T. Walsh, Tony Mockus Sr., Cedric Young, Juan Ramirez, Kevin Casey, Jack McGee and Mark Wheeler. Support the showFeel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! This week we're donning our Ray-Bans, sliding across the living room floor, and revisiting the film that launched Tom Cruise into superstardom — Risky Business (1983). Equal parts coming-of-age comedy, satire, and cautionary tale, it's a movie that defined a certain brand of 80s cool while slyly critiquing the era's obsession with wealth and success.Directed by Paul Brickman, Risky Business follows Joel Goodson (Tom Cruise), a high-achieving Chicago high school student left home alone while his parents are away. Initially envisioning a week of harmless fun, things spiral after a night with call girl Lana (Rebecca De Mornay) leads Joel into a world of escalating consequences, entrepreneurial schemes, and moral compromises.What begins as a teenage fantasy of freedom and rebellion becomes a sharply observed journey into adulthood — and a satire of the “make it big” mentality that fuelled the 80s.While it has that glossy 80s comedy appeal, Risky Business is far smarter and more cynical than it first appears. It's one of those films that teenage audiences might take at face value as a tale of freedom and rebellion, but adults will recognise as a sharp social critique. That said, it's very much an R-rated outing — so maybe not one for family movie night.In the end, Risky Business is more than just a star-making turn for Tom Cruise. It's a stylish, clever, and surprisingly subversive look at ambition, temptation, and the thin line between opportunity and exploitation.

Send us a textRISKYSometimes you gotta say, “What the Fuck” to research, make your move. This week Season 14's penultimate 1x1 is co-host Ryan's pick: RISKY BUSINESS (1983). His reason: TGTPTU normally pairs filmographies of a single director or actor, and the writer-director on this film was so triggered by the experience of having his written, shot, and edited original ending replaced in the final cut that he never directed another film again… or at least not until his second film in 1990 (WTF, Ryan?).  This film that would go on to become part of 1980s iconography by first-time director Paul Brickman, who had previously written the Michael Pressman-directed The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977) and the Jonathan Demme-directed Handle with Care (1977) and would later be one of three credited writers on Clint Eastwood's True Crime (alternately known as Speed Zoo) (1999), Risky Business as dark teen comedy and potential Reagon-era satire stars a number of early roles by actors who'd become comedy stars of the 1980s, including as the protagonist Joel's fellow yuppie North Shore friends and entrepreneuring high school seniors in their first film appearances Curtis Armstrong (also known as Booger in the 1980s) and Bronson Pinchot (aka Balki in the 80s). It costars Rebecca De Mornay (later in the 90s known for her roles as a terrible nanny and as Milady de Winter) as the business-savvy prostitute, and has an early movie appearance by Joey Pants (known in the late-90s for taking the blue pill, Ralphie Cifaretto in the 00s, and a Bad Boy 4 life) as Guido the pimp.   Oh, and it's also the first time that actor born Thomas Mapother IV, better known later in life by his stage name Tom Cruise, stars in the leading role in a film (but not the first time he danced in his underwear or kissed a female person, if DVD commentary tracks are to be believed).  Behind the camera, you have two cinematographers: Eastwood's 70s and early-80s collaborator Bruce Surtees as well as regular Hollywood comedy lenser Reynaldo Villalobos. Pod-favorite Tangerine Dream scores. And the film scores big with first watches by host Tom and guest host Jack and with the Gen X'ers Ken and Ryan.   It's a wild ride, so mind your parking brake. In this episode Ryan explains the economic milieu behind the 80's yuppie culture to the two young hosts while drawing comparisons to American Psycho (2000); the two Zoomers discover how to shorten future episodes; and Broom Hilda's creator, whose life strangely overlaps with Ken's past and present, drops by studio.  Our podcast is The Good, The Pod, and The Ugly.

R.J. Stewart spent more than 20 years as a writer and producer in Hollywood. He got his first break writing for the NBC romantic-detective drama, Remington Steele that starred Pierce Brosnan and Stephanie Zimbalist.  He's best known for developing, writing and producing Xena: Warrior Princess (starring Lucy Lawless), once the highest-rated television show in syndication.  Among his other Hollywood credits are movies like The Rundown, starring Duane “The Rock” Johnson, Major League 2, starring Charlie Sheen, and the TV series Cleopatra 2525. He's also worked on projects with Kevin Costner, Rebecca De Mornay and James Garner.Recently, R.J. published the terrific post-apocalyptic thriller, Crazy Hawk, which I've read and can tell you is a fantastically action-packed dystopian western set in an inhospitable American future. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Crazy Hawk, and highly recommend it to you. For more information, please see www.hovartus.com

Stewart, the author of the post-apocalyptic thriller, Crazy Hawk, is best known for developing, writing and producing Xena: Warrior Princess (starring Lucy Lawless), once the highest-rated television show in syndication.   He started out as a teamster for nine years and a fledgling stage actor, until he got his first break, writing for the NBC romance detective drama starring Pierce Brosnan, Remington Steele. It would parlay into a 22-year Hollywood career that includes writing credits for movies The Rundown, starring Duane “The Rock” Johnson, Major League 2, starring Charlie Sheen, and television's Cleopatra 2525. He also worked on projects with Kevin Costner, Rebecca De Mornay and James Garner.  Stewart was born in Brooklyn, New York, but has lived most of his life in the American West. His youth as the son of an Air Force sergeant was spent across six states and Greece, Italy, and Germany. His American family roots trace back nearly two centuries.  He has spent thousands of hours riding a trail horse and likes to collect historical documents specializing in 18th century history.  Stewart graduated from Florida International University.  He lives on a San Diego County horse ranch with his wife of 51 years, Kat O'Connor. Various horses and dogs have been kind enough to share their ranch with R.J. and Kat, including Danny, a beautiful palomino who inspired the creation of the buckskin character in Crazy Hawk, his first novel.  For more information, please see www.hovartus.com.  Awesome conversation!

The stacked cast features Kurt Russell, William Baldwin, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Scott Glenn, Rebecca De Mornay, Robert De Niro, J. T. Walsh, and the late great Donald Sutherland. The film is about two estranged firefighter brothers who dodge flaming buildings and family therapy alike while unraveling an arson conspiracy hotter than their sibling rivalry.

The Wiz RECOMMENDS Risky Business Enjoyment of Risky Business will be entirely based on the answer to this one question: Do you like teen sex comedies? If yes, enjoy. It's considered one of the godfathers of the genre. If the answer is either "I'm kind of too old to watch these" or "no", then don't bother. It is, very simply, a teen sex comedy. The nuts and bolts is this: Risky Business is a movie that has had elements from the movie that were either repurposed or downright stolen in other films. Some examples like Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Van Wilder, American Pie, The Girl Next Door and others owe a lot to this film and its success for it's creation. But as true as that is, it also shares its tropes and conventions. The main character is sheltered and thrusted into a world he has no comprehension of but learns to adapt to succeed. There's an outside element that is threatening and dangerous...but not that dangerous. He has wacky, horny friends. But there are really two things in the film that stick out: the excellent soundtrack by Tangerine Dream and Rebecca De Mornay's performance. The soundtrack fits incredibly well with the visual style of the film, especially in it's darker scenes in both setting and mood. De Mornay's performance as Lana is charismatic and enjoyable on many fronts. Her girl next door look and streetwise intelligence is highly believable in this film and she's a constant highlight in the film. To be frank though, Risky Business is simply a good one of those: a funny, if unremarkable, teen sex comedy. It certainly is enjoyable in spots, but it's not something that compares to such peerless classics as Dazed and Confused and Fast Times at Ridgemont High. It's a film to have maximum enjoyment, you essentially have to adopt the credo of the main character and say "ahh f*** ir!" when the film goes into its less interesting parts.

Tread Perilously begins a month of would-be prestige TV series that failed to connect with the debut episode of John from Cincinnati -- "His Visit: Day One." Retired surfer Mitch Yost is spotted on the water by an ambitious promoter and a mysterious man who repeats what he hears called John. Back in town, Mitch's son, Butchie -- also a retired pro surfer -- is anxious to score, but discovers his heroin has been cut so much, it might as well be nothing. Meanwhile, Butchie's son, Shaun, is looking to participate in his first surfing competition and maybe get a sponsorship from the promoter hounding Mitch. Do any of these things matter? And why does Mitch spontaneously hover two feet in the air? Erik and Justin confront one of the most infamous examples of failed prestige: John From Cincinnati. They laud a deep cast which includes Rebecca De Mornay and Bruce Greenwood, but are unsure about some of the less-seasoned actors, including the person who plays John. Geography Corner gets into detail about the Interstate 5 freeway between the Mexico border and Huntington Beach. The pair also theorize why Butchie is banned from that particular part of the coast. The show's credit sequence gets analyzed and the cadence of Deadwood dialogue trips up Justin. Also, an attempt is made to recast the title character and Erik introduces his appropriate nemesis.

Runaway Train, dʹAndreï Konchalovsky est un express pour lʹenfer, du suspens sur les rails, un drame qui ne ralentis jamais, un film spectacle lancé à grande vitesse sorti en 1986 Pour ce projet, on réunit autour dʹun scénario dʹAkira Kurosawa :  un réalisateur russe, des producteurs israéliens et un tournage américain dans les neiges de lʹAlaska. Le film raconte lʹévasion de deux criminels dʹune prison en Alaska qui finissent par monter dans un train. Le conducteur meurt et le train roule à grande vitesse sans contrôle. Lʹintrigue est relativement simple, mais Konchalovsky va y chercher lʹhumanité des êtres confrontés à leurs propres limites, à la peur et à la mort. Du maitre japonais, Konchalovsky a dʹabord retenu la qualité du regard porté sur les êtres envisagés dans toutes leurs contradictions, avec le désir de conserver intacte toute leur ambiguïté de leur laisser le droit de se tromper et dʹavoir tort. Les personnages de Runaway Train sont improbables mais pas impossibles. A lʹécran, Jon Voight, vieilli, et Eric Roberts, le frère de Julia, survolté, accompagnés de Rebecca De Mornay, en contrepoint. Runaway Train est sélectionné à Cannes en 1986. Il repart bredouille, mais il fait un score correct en salles. Il est nominé aux Oscars et reçoit le Golden Globes 1986 du meilleur acteur dans un film dramatique pour Jon Voight. Ne tardons pas. Il y a la neige, le froid, la vie, la mort, lʹespoir puis le renoncement, le tout lancé à grande vitesse. Ça ne se rate pas !

We decided to go a bit more “highbrow” with this week's choice and are discussing 1985's Runaway Train. This Academy Award nominated film started as a screenplay by legendary filmmaker Akira Kurosawa and was passed around by several Hollywood executives. The story of two escaped convicts who become stuck on a…you guessed it…runaway train finally found a home with Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus. Austin brings so much insight to this film and we are super excited he joined us for this week's conversation. So, sit back, relax, and learn all about one of the best stories to come out of The Cannon Group, Runaway Train. Runway Train is directed by Andrei Konchalovsky and stars John Voight, Eric Roberts, Rebecca De Mornay, Kyle T. Heffner, John P. Ryan, T.K.

A film that boldly asks “What if we made a good version of Ferris Buehler's Day Off?” It has all the beats of a John Hughes teen movie—especially that one—while actually saying something about America, capitalism, and class. It's the film that made Tom Cruise a star, and unfortunately is saddled in pop culture memory with one very silly dance scene that has very little to do with what's otherwise a very dark, funny, nervy movie about facing adulthood and disillusionment. A smarter film than expected, it eviscerates the model of “teen goes wild when his parents are away and has to set everything back the way it was before they get home” just as that template was being set for teen comedies. Starring Tom Cruise, Rebecca De Mornay, Curtis Armstrong, Bronson Pinchot, Joe Pantoliano, and Richard Masur. Written and directed by Paul Brickman.

These are two VERY hard things to do. EXTREMELY difficult. So know that I know this as you listen. I still struggle with empathy and compassion. Every day. Whether it's something connected to my life or when I watch the news, initially my emotions take over and I have a VERY hard time finding that empathy and compassion. It takes time, reading, therapy, podcasts and talking with others to find it again. Especially with evil and unkindness in the world. I had to work hard when a child in Brooklyn's class was constantly saying unkind things to her. I initially wanted to pull a Rebecca De Mornay from "The Hand That Rocks the Cradle" and find that kid on the playground, pull him to the side, and tell him not to F with my daughter. I had to breathe. Talk to people. Have a session with my therapist. I had to find a way to TEACH Brooklyn not only to stick up for herself but to also find empathy and compassion for this child. So that Brooklyn could release the anger. I don't support many actions or behaviors out there, but how do I move on and not hold on to the anger? The resentment? Sadness? Confusion? How do I grow into a stronger person and avoid crumbling and holding on to feelings that can defeat me? Especially with all that I cannot control in the world. Here are some quotes that resonated with me and may help you with this journey we are all on every day of our lives. Empathy is simply listening, holding space, withholding judgement, emotionally connecting, and communicating that incredibly healing message of you're not alone. - Brene Brown Empathy is really the opposite of spiritual meanness. It's the capacity to understand that every war is both won and lost. And that someone else's pain is as meaningful as your own. - Barbara Kingsolver I think we all have empathy. We may not have enough courage to display it. - Maya Angelou What we don't realize is that the world does not need more perfection. It needs more compassion and empathy. - Tessa Dare Mom Card Drawing of the Week: "Listen to the whispers of your heart.

Join us for a 90's thriller classic. Rebecca De Mornay and Annabella Sciorra face off in the way only two fierce femme fatales from the 90's can — with a mountain of traumatic events between them and through a sea of problematic choices. Jane and Brandon are here for every moment of it. Press play but remember, this episode deserves a trigger warning for just about everything.

Remember Cannon Films?  They were an independent production company started in the '70s run by two Israeli cousins (Yoram Globus, Menahem Globus) who wanted to bring their cinematic ambitions to the United States....and they released a LOT of movies, most of which were considered schlock in retrospect.  But every once in a while, they would release a GENUINE quality film and this was one of them. :) Directed by Andrei Konchalovsky, this is a tense action adventure focusing on two escaped convicts of an Alaskan prison who jump on to a nearby train before eventually realizing that its conductor has died and its breaks are not working.  Hence it's a.....RUNAWAY TRAIN. ;) Jon Voight and Eric Roberts star as the two convicts along with Rebecca De Mornay as a rail worker who they encounter on their adventure. Host: Geoff Gershon Editors: Geoff and Ella GershonProducer: Marlene Gershonhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
