Melanie and I talk about Object of Desire all the time and boy, oh boy, this movie really drives home why it's so important. The writers didn't go for the obvious choice here and it makes the movie, and the protagonist, so much more interesting because what Judy wants more than anything in the world is not to perform, but to be with her kids. In terms of tension, it's hit-and-miss. Tune in to find out how you can emulate the tension-creating techniques and how you can avoid the pitfalls. -V."It's the conflict that creates tension and change in a story."

Because the novel is so funny and easy to read, and because the film is a romcom, it's easy to dismiss Bridget Jones's Diary as a simple story that Helen Fielding simply dashed off on a weekend. But nothing could be further from the truth. Even though it's a lighthearted story, Bridget is still a dimensional character and that's why we love her.For access to writing templates and worksheets, and more than 70 hours of training (all for free), subscribe to Valerie's Inner Circle: www.valeriefrancis.ca/innercircleFor information about Valerie's upcoming webinars, visit: www.valeriefrancis.ca/webinarsTo learn to read like a writer, visit Melanie's website: www.melaniehill.com.auFollow Valerie on Instagram, Threads and X (Twitter) @valerie_francisFollow Melanie on Instagram, X (Twitter) and Facebook @MelanieHillAuthor

On December 27th, 2011 a 911 call is placed at 130 Sumac Drive in Troy Missouri that starts the domino effect of one of the strangest cases of murder and fraud I've ever heard. On a recommendation, I started watching The Thing About Pam on NBC starring Renee Zellwegger and couldn't get enough. Not many fraudsters are as bold and brazen as Pam, and I knew I had to learn as much as I could to find the answers... Unfortunately it just lead to even more questions.

It's no secret that many celebrities go under the knife to improve their looks, but not all succeed in what they were trying to accomplish. Renee Zellwegger, Tyra Banks, Khloe Kardashian, Ivanka Trump, and many others have all had some form of cosmetic procedure, but did it improve their looks?

It's a new year and we're back with the absolute charm bomb that is Bridget Jones's Diary. With a plot knicked from Pride & Prejudice, a perfect cast, and a main character who embodies the complexities and inanities of modern womanhood, this movie reminds you that you're lovable, just as you are.
The best part of the movie was Cuba Gooding Jr. and Regina King's performances, while Tom Cruise and Renee Zellwegger try desperately to hold their own. Of course, all of Tom Cruise's lines are quoted for all eternity. Looks like it's about baseball and being an asshole. Maybe someday if you're an asshole you'll learn you're an asshole and maybe you'll stop being an asshole.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-other-half/exclusive-content

I love drama biopics - Judy 2019 based on the life of Judy Garland starring Renee Zellwegger in the lead role
This month, the team discuss the musicals that have won Best Picture: the good, the bad, and the never agains. Gigi, directed by Vincente Minelli, and starring Leslie Caron, tells the story of 16 year-old Gigi, who begins her training as a courtesan and, in the process, tames the heart of Paris' most eligible bachelor Gaston - played by Louis Jordan. Rob Marshall's Chicago is a razzle dazzle screen adaptation of the broadway musical by Kander and Ebb, starring Renee Zellwegger and Catherine Zeta-Jones as Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly, the most seductive murderesses of the Jazz Age. Thank you to Thomas Whitelaw for our intro music and Rachel Valentine Smith for our artwork. This episode was recorded remotely and so we apologise for any changes in sound quality present.
When I recall the beauty standards of my formative years, I think of two Kates, one Fiona, and my beloved (but sometimes side-eyed) Friends. Kate Moss, the queen of heroin chic; headlines decrying "overweight" Kate Winslet; Fiona Apple, unshowered, underfed, and undressed on a dirty carpet in her "Criminal" video; and Friends' lazy punchlines about Monica in a fat suit.Not to mention Bridget Jones' topping out at 140lbs in her panicked diet diary entries or Renee Zellwegger's "brave" weight gain to portray her. Nor the worrisomely slim women of Ally McBeal. Or Regina George's puffer coat masquerading as an upsetting weight gain plot point in Mean Girls.Today Kristen Watson and I tackle pop culture and marketing; body image, positivity and diversity; whether we've left '90s beauty standards behind us; and the upside of social media's portrayal of everyday women and the many kinds of beauty they hold.Get ready for a ride that touches on:1. Britney's nude-and-crystal body stocking, J Lo's green Versace dress, and why 2000s fashion made a women's bodies the ultimate accessory. 2. What is normal versus what's normalized. (Do you hear Oprah saying that in her "silent or silencedddd" voice?)3. The puzzle of compliments - how to use our words to build up the people we find beautiful.4. The pressure of being perceived. We know when we're being sized up, measured, and found lacking/worthwhile. What do we do about it?5. Supergoop's Handscreen SPF and what kind of dunce falls for it. 6. Why middle school boys called me Tic-Tac Girl, and how I feel about it today.7. Whether the "COVID 15" jokes can go away now.8. The "we don't care what you look like or what you're wearing - just come!" disclaimer every post-pandemic invite needs.9. Why lacking visible ribs and tan lines was once considered a status symbol - but also why archaic beauty standards are still everywhere.10. Our moms could just toss the VS catalogs if they didn't want us to see them. What does that look like in a modern world?JUICY BONUS: Kristen's teen heartthrob boyfriend who shared a set with Jessica Biel while they dated, and whose face makes me cringe now.Though we touch on the Victoria's Secret/VS Collective rebrand here, the remaining hour (yes, we have thoughts) will go live on Patreon over the weekend. It'll take me a minute to come down from visiting the high of visiting the touring Friends set today; I'm basically Penny Lane-level groupie for that traveling orange Central Perk couch.So many future chats may have been born in this hour: A Notebook/Mean Girls breakdown. The history and frustrating glory of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit cover. (Yay, someone who looks less emaciated is on the cover, but is this our ultimate goal?) What Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears, and Christina Aguilera could have accomplished if the media hadn't positioned them as enemy rivals. The list goes on - and I can't wait to hear your thoughts!Find us on Instagram, Patreon, or at the podcast's website to continue the discussion!

"I like you very much. Just as you are". We hope that you like our discussion of the 2001 romantic comedy, Bridget Jones's Diary, just the same. This fun, romantic comedy features Renee Zellwegger in her best and most memorable role to date.
The explosion of the slasher genre in the 1980’s had just about every studio in Hollywood thirsty for the next great horror franchise. New Line Cinema, which was the studio responsible for the rise of the Nightmare on Elm Street series, decided to reinvent the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise with a third film in the series with plans to focus more around Leatherface than his cannabilistic family. The result was the 1990 film “Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III,” which starred future Academy Award nominee Viggo Mortensen. Then in 1995, Kim Henkel, one of the original writers in the original “Texas Chain Saw Massacre” returned to the franchise to pen the script for “The Return of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” which was the fourth film in the series. Starring Matthew McConaughey and Renee Zellwegger long before they were Oscar darlings, the film introduced a bizarre twist that the human flesh feasting Sawyer clan were actually part of a secret cabal responsible for many of the ills that befell the world. In part three of our ongoing examination of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise, Rewind of the Living Dead will take a look at two sequels from the 1990s that were meant to reinvigorate the series with “Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III’ and the fourth film later retitled “Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation”…
I'm honored to have Matt Sprosty on today's episode of Firebuilders LIVE! He is going to TEACH YOU this → How any kind of writer can find the devoted, fanatical readership they're searching for. Novelist, screenwriter and an award-winning playwright Matt Sprosty knows how to grab your attention. From writing treatments to music videos for artists such as Timbaland, Katy Perry, Drake, to receiving word-of-mouth congratulations from Hollywood stars such as Renee Zellwegger and Patricia Arquette for his recent play “Malicious Bunny,” Matt writes -- and Matt writes well. His first play "Ganareys' 101" was one of the first school sanctioned full length productions by an undergraduate in Ohio University's history. Sprosty sold his first screenplay within a year of writing it, and his latest screenplay “The Last Story of David Allan” has stars Kellen Lutz, Ron Perlman, and Michael Imperioli attached. Not to mention his other multiple other spec projects being pitched on the West Coast by established producers as we speak. But in order to slash and cut with the written word, you need more than practice. You need a readership. People that will do WHATEVER it takes to get their hands on your stuff. Luckily there's a few tricks Matt's learned along the way to help speed this process up. Tune in TODAY at 12pm EST and listen to Matt's advice. Whether or not you're an aspiring novelist, screenplay writer, or playwright, it doesn't matter. Writing would be nothing without readers...and we'll talk about how to find them! Want more of Matt?

Today, we begin with our initial non-spoiler thoughts on Judy before getting into a debate of Snubbable or Unsnubbable over Renee Zellweger. She is the front runner. But is it warranted? And will she go the distance come red carpet time? Make sure you let us know what you think. We then discuss all of the stories surrounding the new Joker movie. From an on set “altercation” to the more serious letter from Aurora & the increased police presence in theaters across the country this weekend, from the lack of press at the premiere to the strange comments from director Todd Phillips, we are now worried for this movie. There’s certainly a debate to be had about the moral accountability of films, and we’ll wait to see it before diving into that one. But we certainly frame things. So do stay tuned for our next episode where we’ll be reviewing Joker in an OSP / Joker Character Study episode. We chat about the Golden Globes & Tom Hanks, the Gotham Awards & Laura Dern, and then we review a bunch of Oscar trailers. 1917 released a making of featurette, where we discuss the merits of real-time films. The new Frozen 2 trailer wows us, & we compare the new song to those of the first film. Then we discuss Clemency, Uncut Gems, Ordinary Love, & Burning Cane. Fantastic Fest just wrapped up last weekend, and we profile a bunch of the Oscar contending films that took part in Austin’s awesome film festival (that we need to go to in coming years). Jojo Rabbit, The Lighthouse, Dolemite Is My Name, Parasite, & Knives Out all get updated profiles from us here. Then we close with a few more stories about Clint Eastwood’s Richard Jewell, and the new deal between Jordan Peele & Universal.

And I always wanted to do a survival straw that you drink. Have you seen those little straws that are like a filter so you can drink out of a toilet if you want to? So when the world comes to an end you are still good to go. So that's what I always wanted was a survival straw, so we're kind of partnering on this and doing a survival straw offer and it's going to be cool. But this episode, the first episode was very emotional. Anthony's an emotional guy and the story's awesome. So that was episode one, we want to lead with that. Episode number two now we want to kind of start defining some of the core things like what funnel hacking actually is. So that's what's going to be kind of cool about this one. We're actually going to go and this is going to be a funnel hack episode. We funnel hacked two survival funnels yesterday and Steven designed them on these big old poster boards so we're going to be showing those on the video and walking through the whole thing and really mapping out exactly what we're going build it and then we're going to go build it. It's going to be amazing. I already pre-bought ads that are going to be running tomorrow for this funnel we're going to be doing today, and a bunch of other cool things. So that's kind of what's going down. It's going to be a fun day. We have today and tomorrow to shoot, but the ads go live tomorrow morning. So we pretty much have to get it all done today. So cross your fingers. And I got to get home because we got people coming over tonight. So it's not like I can pull an all-nighter. We got to get this done during business hours today, which will be a ton of fun. So that is what we're scrambling for. So that's what's happening. So many fun things. I tell you what, I spent probably, I don't know, 10 or 12 hours yesterday working on the new Expert Secrets book. I gotta tell you, I am so, so, so, so, so, so excited. I would say, and I don't think I would've said it over myself, but after the event we had last weekend talking about Expert Secret stuff and going deep into it. I always get people like, “The event was amazing. Best thing I've ever been to.” Those things always come with any event you do. This was different. I had people who don't normally give compliments to me, to try to pat me on the back, come back and pull me aside and be like, “Dude, this is the best thing you have ever done, ever.” Which is exciting. Multiple people………So I'm just dying. I want this book to be done. I'm hustling more than I ever have because you guys, I spent the last 8 months writing the first version of the book, and it was good, but it didn't fire me up. Now all I want to do is have this book done. But it's going to be good. It will redefine everything you believe about selling and how to sell and how to build a following. I can't even tell you how cool it is. One of the really cool things, one of the things we talked about at the event is that there's two pieces. One's you becoming an expert and two is building a following. If you don't have a following, it's the whole, ‘if a tree falls in the forest and no one's there to hear it, does it make a noise?' No, it doesn't. If you're an expert and there's no one there that listens to you then it doesn't really matter. You're just some crazy person on the corner yelling. So how do we build a following and what goes into that. So we broke that down a lot. What's cool is there's 3 core components. You see the book, you'll see all the hand sketches in the book and it'll make more sense. But it's basically a charismatic leader, a cause and a new opportunity. Those are three things that have to be present for there to be a mass movement. For there to be people to buy into your vision and things like that. You know, a charismatic leader/attractive character, we talk a lot about that. The new opportunity is the big aha you will have when you read the book. The reason why most people, if your offer is failing, means you're probably selling an improvement or repair offer, where you're trying to make things better as opposed to a new opportunity. And I make a pretty dang convincing argument that you have to have a new opportunity. And we look at pretty much every offer we ever had that succeeded were all tied to a new opportunity. None of the improvement offers have ever made any money. So there's another lesson for you, but that's a lesson for another day because we can go deep into that. The cool thing we figured out yesterday is the middle one is the cause. Creating a cause. When you create a cause, it's got to be something that is all based on the vision of the future because people are afraid of what the future could hold. They don't want to move, there's fear around that. But when they're faithful in the future it makes them want to move towards that compelling future, that vision that you're kind of painting and illustrating. So that was a big part of it. Then I was trying to explain that at the event. I was like, “How do we get everyone to get this and understand it?” and I was struggling for them to get it and all the sudden I had this thought pop in my head to show the intro video for the reality show that we're filming episode two of today. Because in that I wrote the script and it was all about this call to action. I wanted this to be an us versus them, like we're separating us from traditional business. We're separating us from college. We're separating us from VC backed companies. I wanted a very clear, defined us versus them. So when you guys see the intro the first time, first off you are going to love it because it's pretty dang cool. Second off, you'll see how it's this thing that you're drawing a line and taking sides. You're with us or against us type of thing, it's pretty cool. I showed the video, and people when they saw it were like, “I understand now what you mean by starting a cause or a movement.” So yesterday I was working on the book and I was writing that section and getting stuck. I was like, how do you make this interesting? I don't want to just have the book be very strategic. “Oh you need to start a cause, it's got to be important.” That's dumb. What's the tangible, practical things afterward? So I was thinking more and more through that and all the sudden I started thinking back like in the movie, Jerry Mcguire. In the very beginning Tom Cruises character, I guess his name is Jerry Mcguire in the movie. Anyway, he sits down and he writes out that manifesto of what he thinks the issue should be and he hands it out and that's the turning point where everyone is either with him or against him, and most people are against him, but he gets Renee Zellwegger or whatever her name is to follow him. That document is what stirred people to action and to want to move towards this cause, which is really cool. That's kind of the concept. So I started saying, I feel like every business, every cause needs to have that. That moment where they sit down and write out the Jerry Mcguire letter. This is their manifesto of what they believe and who they are and who they're not. Well how to do they write that. What's the tangibles? So then I went back to the video for Funnel Hacker TV and I listened to it 5 or 6 times and there was a very cool script that was in there and I sketched it out. Number one you introduce the attractive character, the charismatic leader. Number two he earned his movement. From there you move over to us versus them. You talk about what you stand for, who you are, who you're not. From there you talk about why your movement is better and then you talk about who this is not for and then you transition at the end to who you are and who are as movement. It was so cool, so I sketched out the whole thing. I drew it on a flag, so it turned out so cool. So now we've got an actual script and a process for people to build out their manifesto or whatever you want to call it. The call to get people into your cause. That was a big aha yesterday that we got that and we got that into the book. It was so cool. So anyway, just something to think through today. We'll get deeper into the charismatic leader and the new opportunity, but today I want you thinking about your cause. What's your cause? Why should people buy into it? What are the alternatives they have that you need to kind of shun and push aside? Why is your cause the best? Those are the questions I want to you to ask yourself, first off. And then second off, I want you guys to sit down and actually write out, pretend like you're Jerry Mcguire and you're pissed at everything that's happening in the industry and write out your manifesto and create that and then that could be the rallying call for your people, for your cause. You will see that coming in full light here very soon as we release the first episode of our reality show. I think it's something you guys are going to love. So that's all I got you guys. I'm at the office, time to go film. I'm only 9 minutes….6 minutes late. So that's pretty good, not double digits today. Alright guys, talk to you all soon. Bye.

Now Playing: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Retrospective Series
After Platinum Dunes recovered Leatherface from direct-to-video hell, they relinquished their rights to the franchise, so Twisted Pictures and Lions Gate Entertainment stepped in to take the series back to its grindhouse roots. Ignoring all Texas Chainsaw films except the original, this new 3-D film picks up right where the first ended, and then fast forwards to present day. Is this the sequel Tobe Hooper's classic has always deserved, or another waste of gas? Listen to Stuart, Arnie, and Brock's review to find out!

After Platinum Dune's Texas Chainsaw Massacre reboot cut deep in the box office, another installment was inevitable, but with Leatherface left one-armed, and scene stealing R Lee Ermey's Sheriff Hoyt squashed like a Texas armadillo, where could the series go next? Platinum Dunes' answer was to make a prequel to their reboot, telling the origin story of the Hewett clan, including witnessing the birth of Leatherface, seeing how Ermey earned his sheriff's badge, and watching as the family dines for the first time on human flesh. Is this new film a tasty morsel to be savored, or just another rancid installment in a wayward horror franchise? Listen to find out!

When the fourth Texas Chainsaw Massacre was released quietly to video, it seemed Leatherface's terrorizing of Texas teens had been terminated. Only Michael Bay and his new production company Platinum Dunes gave Leatherface another look, deciding the time was right for a proper Texas Chainsaw Massacre reboot, bringing us a new Leatherface, a new group of teens, and a twisted new family lead by Full Metal Jacket hard-ass R. Lee Ermey as Sheriff Hoyt. This film launched Platinum Dunes' reputation as horror rehab, a reputation that is less than stellar after their reboots of Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street. Was their first attempt their best? Is this Arnie, Stuart, or Brock's favorite of Platinum Dunes' reboots? Listen to find out!

By 1986 horror was very much in the mainstream. Freddy and Jason were exceptionally profitable franchises, and so it was put on Tobe Hooper to return to Texas and bring back Leatherface and the family for a new generation. With Poltergeist to his credit, Hooper had horror cred, and with Dennis Hopper starring along with Bill Mosely and Jim Siedow returning from the original film, Leatherface seemed poised to take his place among 80's slasher icons Jason, Freddy, and Michael Myers. But Hooper's horror-comedy vision added a new twist to the family dynamic, resulting in one of the most original installments in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre series. Were Now Playing hosts Brock, Stuart, and Arnie happy to see Hooper directing Leatherface to once again don the mask and do his chainsaw dance? Listen to find out!
