Podcasts about Richard Rush

This week on The Video Store Podcast, I'm recommending four offbeat cop films that have stuck with me over the years. These films can be funny, gritty, offbeat, and sometimes kind of chaotic in the best way possible. So what movies am I recommending?Running Scared (1986) – Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines as two wisecracking Chicago detectives. This one's got a great mix of comedy and action, and it leans into that mid-80s buddy cop energy without taking itself too seriously. Michael McDonald's “Sweet Freedom” is on the soundtrack, which feels like a time capsule in itself.Miami Blues (1990) – Alec Baldwin in a role that's kind of hard to pin down. He plays a violent conman who ends up impersonating a cop. It's based on a Charles Willeford novel and keeps that oddball tone where you're not always sure if you're supposed to laugh or be disturbed. Fred Ward is great in it too, playing the worn-out detective trying to catch him.Freebie and the Bean (1974) – This one's messier than most cop movies, but it's intentional. Directed by Richard Rush, who also did The Stunt Man, it's full of reckless driving, dark humor, and strange tonal shifts. Alan Arkin and James Caan play the leads, and they're either chasing criminals or arguing with each other. It kind of laid the groundwork for a lot of buddy cop films that came later.Stakeout (1987) – Richard Dreyfuss and Emilio Estevez as partners on a surveillance detail that doesn't stay professional for very long. There's a good balance of suspense and comedy, and Madeleine Stowe holds her own in her first major role. It was directed by John Badham, who also did WarGames and Short Circuit, so the pacing is solid.If you're in the mood for movies where different type of cops break rules, hunt odd suspects or drive their car on the track of an elevated train, I think you will find something here you will like.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Tune in as Shawn Murphy (Men Who Like Men Who Like Movies Podcast) rejoins the program to review and recap Color of Night, the 1994 erotic thriller that takes us on a wild and atmospheric ride with a color-blind psychiatrist who gets himself caught up in a murder mystery and a steamy affair simultaneously. An intense BTS feud that led to different cuts of this movie being released, drawing inspiration from giallo, the therapy group in the plot acting like a dysfunctional family, and 90s-era queer representation that's both progressive for its time and dated for our contemporary world comprise just a few of the subjects that get coverage in today's episode. Directed by Richard Rush, Color of Night stars Bruce Willis, Jane March, Rubén Blades, Lesley Ann Warren, Scott Bakula, Brad Dourif, Lance Henrikson, Kevin J. O'Connor, Andrew Lowery, Eriq La Salle, Jeff Corey, Kathleen Wilhoite, Shirley Knight, and Erick Avari.

Show Notes https://www.rushtoreason.com/show-notes/06-10-2024/

Nouveau dossier consacré cette fois ci au peu connu Freebie and the bean (Les Anges Gardiens par chez nous et à ne pas confondre avec le film de Jean-Marie Poiré) mais qui possède une réelle importance dans l'histoire du cinéma américain dans la mesure où il est considéré comme le tout premier buddy-movie ! Réalisé en 1974 par Richard Rush, cinéaste issu de la mythique écurie Roger Corman et s'ayant illustré avec des comédies contre-culturelles, bien avant 48 Heures de Walter Hill ou L'Arme Fatale de Richard Donner voici donc le prototype très Nouvel Hollywood de ce qui allait donner l'un des sous-genres policiers les plus populaires et spectaculaires des 80's. Porté par le duo de flics James Caan/Allan Arkin qui n'arrête jamais de jacter et de s'engueuler Freebie and the bean est un festival de destruction massive, des courses poursuites dantesque et de punchlines toutes plus drôles les unes que les autres quelque part entre French Connection et Un drôle de couple. Un genre est né !  Et pour vous donner envie de découvrir cette pépite bien trop méconnue Aurélien Gouriou-Valès, co-animateur du podcast La 36ème chambre du cinéphage et auteur pour la chaîne youtube Le Ciné-Club de Monsieur Bobine revient et prolonge ainsi sa garde-à-vue ! Retrouvez la photo signalétique de l'invité en début d'émission ainsi que les complices (un film dans le même giron) en toute fin de podcast. Avec dans cet épisode une déclaration d'amour au cinéma du grand Walter Hill et un retour sur La Relève de Clint Eastwood (1990) où quand Dieu lui-même décide d'offrir sa propre version du buddy-movie. Un dossier rondement mené par Rafael Lorenzo.

Paul and Erin review two films about hapless movie stunt performers: David Leitch's new action comedy THE FALL GUY, starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt; and Richard Rush's 1980 cult film THE STUNT MAN, starring Peter O'Toole.

Like the first film in this pairing, Richard Rush's 1980 oddity THE STUNT MAN, David Leitch's new THE FALL GUY utilizes the chaos of a film set as the cover for a crime, not to mention the inspiration for both romance and comedy. THE FALL GUY is a bit more straightforward in its crowd-pleasing intentions, though, to both its benefit and detriment, which we talk through in sharing our reactions to the new film. Then we bring THE STUNT MAN back in to compare its overlapping but distinct ideas about stunt performers who inspire their directors, get romantically involved with their co-workers, and confront their own deaths as a matter of course. And in Your Next Picture Show we offer another pairing of films that have nothing to do with this week's movies, but which we are nonetheless excited to recommend.  Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about THE STUNT MAN, THE FALL GUY,  or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730. Next Pairing: Jane Schoenbrunn's I SAW THE TV GLOW and Richard Kelly's DONNIE DARKO Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

While there are countless movies featuring the work of stunt performers, movies that center the experiences of those performers are much more rare, which is part of what motivated former stunt performer David Leitch to make the new THE FALL GUY. One of the standouts on that short list is Richard Rush's 1980 genre oddity THE STUNT MAN, which uses the experience of its accidental-stuntie protagonist to blur the lines between post-Vietnam reality and moviemaking fantasy in fascinating, sometimes confounding ways. We talk through our interpretations of what it means and whether it works, and come to the conclusion that even when it doesn't, Peter O'Toole's performance as a diabolical director manages to hold it all together. Then in Feedback, our recent CHALLENGERS episode inspires a couple of listeners to share their alternate pairing ideas. Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about THE STUNT MAN, THE FALL GUY,  or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Justin Kuritzkes, who wrote the screenplay for Luca Guadagnino's new CHALLENGERS, cites Alfonso Cuarón's coming-of-age classic Y TU MAMÁ TAMBIÉN as a longtime favorite, so it's unsurprising to see that film's DNA in this one. CHALLENGERS is far from a remake, though, operating in a very different milieu with very different narrative priorities, both which we discuss along with our generally-positive-to-rapturous reactions to it. Then in Connections we press these two movies' faces together and make them kiss for our own gratification, and come away from the experience surprised by just how much they share without being much alike at all. And in Your Next Picture Show we consider another, more recent Cuarón film in the context of Y TU MAMÁ TAMBIÉN. Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about Y TU MAMÁ TAMBIÉN, CHALLENGERS,  or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Tenure of Office: February 10, 1814 - November 12, 1817 (as Attorney General); March 07, 1825 - March 05, 1829 (as Secretary of the Treasury) In Part Two of this episode, Rush returned to the Cabinet as Secretary of the Treasury in the administration of John Quincy Adams, but he quickly found out that the Era of Good Feelings was long past over at this point. Join me and my special guest, Alycia from Civics & Coffee, as we examine the remainder of Rush's life and lengthy career which saw him shift parties due to changing political circumstances and took him to Queen Victoria's England as well as Paris during the Revolutions of 1848.

John picked the movie this week, so you know it's gonna be a fuckin' doozy.  We're talking about Richard Rush's batshit crazy passion project The Stunt Man (1980).  It's full of wild stunts, zany characters, and Peter O'Toole chewing the scenery like his life depends on it.  We've never seen anything quite like this.

It's officially 2024...Happy New Year? We're not getting our hopes up! While everyone nursed their hangovers and tried desperately to get back to "normal" everyday life, we decided to take a look back at all the things we watched in the past year and talk about some stuff that falls outside the usual scope of the show.

Lee & Leah buddy-up for the final episode of 2023 to lay down the law with the Richard Rush-directed "Freebie and the Bean" (1974), starring Alan Arkin & James Caan. How well does this decidedly non-PC buddy cop comedy play in 2023? Does the humour hold up at all? Does the fact that it pretty much spawned what we all know as the buddy cop picture today earn it some brownie points? How about those crazy stunts? All of that is talked about and more after a longer-than-usual segment covering what the hosts have watched, where Lady Leah trashes Hallmark movies made in her town, and then gives a rather critical review of the Christmas classic "Die Hard". (NOTE: Lady Leah's audio has a very slight echo do to some technical problems we encountered while recording. It shouldn't ruin the listening experience for most, but we thought it should be mentioned.) "Freebie and the Bean" IMDB  Feature Music: "Hard Core Man" by Bobby Hart & "You & Me" by Dominic Frontiere & Bobby Hart.

HR2 Trump and Being Arrested | Richard Rush On Sports & Toyota Venza Review 3-20-23 by John Rush

All movie podcasts are obligated to discuss TÁR in 2023, but we aren't obligated to discuss the movie in the same way. Keith joins Jason for a discussion of the themes in TÁR as contrasted with the themes of Richard Rush's 1980 film The Stunt Man. Join the guys as they discuss megalomania, truth, and how much Jason and Keith both like Barbara Hershey. It's an hour of great listening which we think brings unique insights into one of this year's most discussed films. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jason-sacks/message

Join us today as we catch up with Ph.D. alum Dr. Richard Rush, who now serves as the Executive Director of Strategic Communication for the City of Tuscaloosa. In today's conversation, we learn all about his path to the Ph.D., along with two other siblings who have the same degree from the same college (Roll Tide!) as well as how his path has shifted from the professional world to academia and back to the professional world. Richard tells us how his mass communication theory class, of all his classes, really prepped him for much of what he is doing right now working in crisis and risk management. Have you ever thought about the people who have to spring into action when a severe storm is heading toward your city? Or if a bomb threat is called in at the courthouse? These are just some of the many things Richard has to deal with on the fly, but he tells us all how his research in sports and risk management helped prepare him for all of it.

Color of Night (1994) / The Island of St. Matthews (2013) This week we're getting dangerously wet as we go skinny dipping with Richard Rush and water ski down memory lane with Kevin Jerome Everson

Color of Night (1994) is an erotic thriller starring Bruce Willis and Jane March, directed by Richard Rush. This was the film that really gave us the kick in the pants to start this podcast. It is a wild, confusing ride, that is both satisfying and bewildering. As of today, in order to watch the Director's Cut, you'll need to purchase it. We recommend Kino Lorber's Blu-ray release, which has both versions of the film with some lovely commentary.If you'd rather not own this film (but, why? It's such a treasure!), but want to dive as deep as we did, you can check out the Producer's Theatrical Cut which is currently available to stream (for purchase) on Google, iTunes, Vudu, and Amazon.

Two filmmakers' filmmakers, ones who both honed their craft in '60s low-budget B drive-thru movies before achieving gradual and undeniable acclaim, died this past week: Monte Hellman and Richard Rush. I'm joined by Ted Haycraft to discuss Hellman's most celebrated film and, arguably, Rush's most interesting one. On this episode we discuss:- how Two-Lane was greenlit in the wake of Easy Rider, only to be abandoned by the studio on release and for decades after;- its European vibe as a race movie where no one wants to win;- the chiseled minimalism of its screenplay by Rudy Wulitzer;- Warren Oates' rambling, engaged performance;- and Hellman's varied resume, including everything from RoboCop to Head to Reservoir Dogs to an added prologue for the network television premiere of A Fistful of Dollars in 1977.Also:- If Richard Rush invented the technique of racking focus;- how Getting Straight is depressingly still relevant today;- my seesawing views on this admittedly literate film over repeated viewings;- and whether or not the movie is speaking for itself through Harry (Elliott Gould) when he's yelling at women who talk back to him.Haycraft is film critic for Evansville's WFIE-14 and co-hosts Cinema Chat on its Midday show. He can also be found on Cinema Chat's Facebook page.Two-Lane Blacktop is not currently streaming or available on VOD. Physical media is available from Criterion.Getting Straight is available on VOD, with physical media is available from Sony.

For this first episode, we are diving straight into the question: What does it mean to live the call? Join us with Dr. Richard Rush in exploring what it means for our life.
