When his punk-rock neighbor Russ (Matt Smith) asks him to take care of his cat for a few days, Hank suddenly finds himself caught in the middle of a motley crew of threatening gangsters. They all want a piece of him; the problem is he has no idea why. As Hank attempts to evade their ever-tightening grip, he's got to use all his hustle to stay alive long enough to find out… Caught Stealing is directed by Academy Award® nominee Darren Aronofsky, screenplay by Charlie Huston, based on his book of the same name. The film stars Austin Butler, Regina King, Zoë Kravitz, Matt Smith, Liev Schreiber, Vincent D'Onofrio, Griffin Dunne, Benito A Martínez Ocasio, and Carol Kane.

Caught Stealing | Der Regisseur von "Requiem for a Dream" und "The Whale" überrascht uns Das hätten wir nicht von Regisseur Darren Aronofsky erwartet. Nach diversen „Leidensgeschichten“ à la „Requiem for a Dream“, „The Wrestler“ und zuletzt dem Oscar-prämierten „The Whale“ ist sein neuer Kinofilm „Caught Stealing“ eine rasante New-York-Komödie mit spätem 90s-Setting und Gangsterbezug. Immerhin ist die Besetzung mit Austin Butler, Zoë Kravitz, Matt Smith, Liev Schreiber, Regina King, Musiker Bad Bunny und Vincent D'Onofrio wie von Aronofsky gewohnt blendend. Unser Stu war überaus angetan, findet aber auch, dass sich trotz dieses Stilwechsels immer noch genügend Aronofsky in „Caught Stealing“ finden lässt – allen voran, wenn es um Schicksalsschläge geht. Was hingegen Sam zum Film sagt und was genau euch ab dem 28. August erwartet, erfahrt ihr im Podcast. Viel Spaß mit der neuen Folge vom Tele-Stammtisch!

"227" is a sitcom that aired on NBC from 1985 to 1990, spanning five seasons and 116 episodes. Created by C.J. Banks and Bill Boulware, it was adapted from a 1978 stage play of the same name. The show was set in a middle-class apartment building in Washington, D.C., and became one of NBC's popular Saturday night staples in the mid-to-late 1980s. It was notable for being a vehicle for Marla Gibbs, who had gained fame on The Jeffersons, and for introducing Jackée and future star Regina King in her television debut. 227 was generally well-received during its early run, praised for Gibbs's lead performance and the strong ensemble cast. Ratings were solid in the first few seasons, though they dipped in later years, leading to cast changes and retooling before the series ended in 1990. In syndication, 227 retained a loyal audience and is remembered as an important sitcom of the 1980s. Listen in as the S1E1 boys deep dive the show's pilot episode, "Honesty". Starring: Marla Gibbs, Hal Williams, Alaina Reed, Regina King, Curtis Baldwin, Helen Martin, Ken Foree, & Jackée Harry www.S1E1POD.com Instagram & X (Twitter): @S1E1POD

I think the filmmakers had good intentions when they made SHIRLEY, unfortunately, they failed to stick to the essentials of storytelling. In this episode, Melanie does a fantastic job of illustrating what happens to a story when writers fail to create obstacles that progressively complicate the plot. (Progressive Complications are a big deal - you're going to want to pay attention to this one.) And I do a deep dive into the core event (aka the climax) and explain why it doesn't work and how you can avoid making the same mistake in your novel. -V.

We're back with an Oscar winner this week. Regina King came to prominence in the early '90s for her roles in Boyz n the Hood, Jerry Maguire and Enemy of the State. She only became more prominent through the 2000s with roles in A Cinderella Story and The Boondocks. An accomplished director in her own right, King has directed multiple TV episodes and the film One Night in Miami... In 2018, she won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her role in Barry Jenkins' If Beale Street Could Talk. King has continued to act and direct, with great success in the likes of Netflix's The Harder They Fall and Shirley.

Greg Alba & Coy Jandreau take on Higher Learning, the 1995 drama directed by John Singleton (Boyz N the Hood, 2 Fast 2 Furious) that tackles themes of race, identity, privilege, and systemic injustice in the American college experience. The film follows three freshmen—Malik (Omar Epps), Kristen (Kristy Swanson), and Remy (Michael Rapaport)—as they navigate the pressures of higher education, racial tensions, and personal transformation at the fictional Columbus University.

Other powerful moments include Ice Cube's character Fudge dropping hard truths about systemic racism, Laurence Fishburne's powerful lectures as Professor Phipps, and the heartbreaking fates of several key characters that still resonate today. Omar Epps as Malik Williams (Love & Basketball, House), Kristy Swanson as Kristen Connor (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Phantom), Michael Rapaport as Remy (True Romance, Atypical), Ice Cube as Fudge (Friday, Barbershop), Jennifer Connelly as Taryn (A Beautiful Mind, Requiem for a Dream), Tyra Banks as Deja (Coyote Ugly, America's Next Top Model), Laurence Fishburne as Professor Phipps (The Matrix, John Wick 2), Cole Hauser as Scott Moss (Yellowstone, 2 Fast 2 Furious), Regina King as Monet (Watchmen, If Beale Street Could Talk), and Busta Rhymes as Dreads (Halloween: Resurrection, Shaft).
