Lee is joined this week by friends and previous guests Wick and Robby to cover the overlooked gem "The Matador" (2005), directed by Richard Shepard, and starring a post-Bond Pierce Brosnan, who is doing his best to shake off that Bond type-casting. The hosts do a fairly deep dive into a surprising character piece, that feels like it was marketed as a crazy Guy Ritchie-type crime/spy film. The hosts also cover what they've watched recently. "The Matador" IMDB Check out Wick's artwork on his Instagram. Featured Music: "Town Called Malice" by The Jam & "1, 2, 3, 4" by TITAN.

Editors - Diana Fishman, Adam Lichtenstein and Mary DeChambres ACE The JURY DUTY editing team had plenty of experience cutting unscripted tv before taking on the hit Freevee series. But is it actually an unscripted show? To hear their fellow JURY DUTY editor Steven Rosenthal tell it, they were "using the techniques of a reality show for the purposes of a sitcom". The end result is a series unlike any in either the unscripted or scripted comedy genres. JURY DUTY is a reality/sitcom tv series that chronicles the inner workings of a U.S. jury trial through the eyes of juror Ronald Gladden, a solar contractor from San Diego. Ronald is unaware that his jury duty summons was not official. Everything that happened, inside and outside the courtroom, was planned. And everyone in the courtroom, aside from him, was an actor. The series was produced by; Ruben Fleischer, Nick Hatton, Cody Heller, Gene Stupnitsky, Todd Schulman, Lee Eisenberg, David Bernad and Andrew Weinberg. Jake Szymanski also produced and directed. Diana Fishman Editor Diana Fishman is known for her work on the shows; GRACE AND FRANKIE (2015), THE UCB SHOW (2016-17) and SOUTH SIDE (2019-21). Adam Lichtenstein Born with a natural love for time code, Adam showed an early preference for non-drop frame, then rose through the editorial ranks pretending to enjoy sports, overusing terms like "shots on goal", "swish", "in your face" and "that's what I'm talking about" without the slightest idea what he was talking about. He recently completed work on the documentary, FILM GEEK (2023) directed by Richard Shepard. Mary DeChambres, ACE In addition to her work crafting the finale of JURY DUTY, Emmy®-winning editor Mary DeChambres is known for cutting unscripted hits such as; PROJECT RUNWAY (2008), AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR (2013-23) and THE REAL WORLD (2002-03). Editing JURY DUTY In our discussion with the JURY DUTY editing team, we talk about: Using reality tv techniques for a sitcom Managing billions and billions of hours of footage Never making fun of the hero One assistant, no waiting Breaking down the big reveal The Credits Visit Extreme Music for all your production audio needs Go get an Avid Media Composer of your very own Subscribe to The Rough Cut podcast and never miss an episode Visit The Rough Cut on YouTube

Some people like taking a walk on the wild side. That's where this sub-genre comes in, the most f'd up movies imaginable. This is the last in our "in the mood for" series. Supremely f'd up movies discussed include The Empty Man (one of the great cult movies, literally and figuratively, of the last 5 years, which announces a stellar new filmmaker in David Prior), Annihilation (the incredibly freaky Alex Garland and Natalie Portman film), and The Perfection (a film by the always daring and fun Richard Shepard, of The Matador, which has a jaw-dropping insane ending). Let me know your most f'd up movies imaginable at dan@voyagemedia.com, @BenamorDan (Twitter), watch_this_tonight (Instagram) and @watchthistonightpodcast (TikTok). Thanks for listening.

Written and directed by Richard Shepard. Julian Noble is an unshaven, unnerved and unpredictable freelance assassin, who happens to encounter desperate businessman Danny Wright in the bar of a modern Mexico City hotel.

Having lost his touch as a reliable hit-man, Julian needs Danny's help with "one last job," but the logistics of Julian's lethal profession brings them both in contact with other employees out to get Julian.

No programa de hoje vamos falar sobre John Cazale, o ator secundário mais carismático de Hollywood. Steve Cazale recebeu uma ligação. Do outro lado, uma mulher de voz trêmula lhe comunicava que seu irmão, o ator John Cazale, acabava de morrer. Tinha apenas 42 anos. A voz era simplesmente de Meryl Streep, a grande dama do cinema e namorada de John Cazale, um ator único, um anti-James Dean que, como ele, mal apareceu em um punhado de filmes e ainda assim mudou a história da interpretação. Rodou apenas cinco filmes, mas todos juntos obtiveram 40 indicações (entre Oscar, Globo de Ouro etc.) e estão entre o que há de melhor na história do cinema norte-americano. ( Ruben Santos- EL País- 10/02/2018) A história inspiradora e inspirada de Cazale está no documentário "I knew it was you: redescovering Jhon Cazale", de Richard Shepard. Vamos também em breve disponibilizar uma boa conversa sobre o filme "The Godfather" para analisar a atuação de Cazale no filme.

Welcome to Everything Trying to Kill You, the comedy podcast that talks about horror movies! In episode 45, “A Rocketshit” your hosts Mary Kay McBrayer and Mary Beyer welcome on Ashlee Blackwell, founder of Graveyard Shift Sisters, and producer and co-writer of the documentary on Shudder, Horror Noire to discuss the film The Perfection. They answer important questions like these: What would make you shit on the sidewalk? Is this movie scary? What could be worse than getting sick like that on a bus? Is Mary clairvoyant? Could you get past someone tricking you into cutting off your own arm, even if it was “for your own good?” How accurate is this abuse to the musical training? Did you like the image of them playing the cello at the end? Which example of the body horror was the MOST horrific? Was it the bugs? Why? Why should we play through the pain? What could have motivated a woman to revenge besides sexual abuse? Did you find that cause a little lacking in imagination? Did the structure of the Movements work for you? What exactly motivated those decisions? Do you like Charlotte and Lizzie? If Lizzie is coded as queer… does it have anything to do with the fact that she’s been tortured and raped? Is it implying that someone BECOMES and orientation? (In the film.) Is that what the STORY is saying? Is convincing Lizzie to cut off her hand the ONLY way to save her? What ibuprofen pills are that large? What did you think about the film angles and camerawork? What was your favorite shot in the movie? How did Jeffrey and Theus come into this job? Who invented that scary Saw rape apparatus? If you were attacking scary cello rapist man, what song would play while you dismembered and blinded him?

For this week's episode of Horror Movie Talk, we watched The Perfection on Netflix, and it is what I would consider goodbad. It had some nice visual flares, and definitely some unexpected twists. However, it's major failing is not committing to the underlying schlock of the plot. Skip to Intro - 00:30Skip to Trailer - 7:00Skip to Synopsis - 8:33Skip to Review - 9:33Skip to Score - 10:30Skip to Spoilers - 20:00Skip to Final Recommendations - 1:13:30Skip to Taglines - 1:18:29Skip to Kill Count- 1:21:50Skip to Outro - 1:30:00 Synopsis for The Perfection Netflix wants their own Get Out, so they hired Allison Williams from Get Out to star in The Perfection. Williams plays a former cello prodigy named Charlotte that was sidelined because she had to take care of her dying mother. When her mother dies, Charlotte calls up her former Dean at the prestigious Bachoff Academy of Music to try to re-enter the world of world class cellists. https://youtu.be/q57D6kF5B1k The Trailer for The Perfection, available for streaming on Netflix now. Lizzie (left) and Charlotte (right) playing together. She meets the latest prodigy, Lizzie played by Logan Browning and the become close very quickly...suspiciously quickly. When Charlotte and Lizzie take a trip to China, Lizzie becomes extremely sick, and Charlotte might have something to do with it! The rest of the movie swings back and forth in time and perspective to eventually reveal Charlotte’s true motives and the audience may or may not experience whiplash. The Nun was a pretty big 2018 hit - Here is our Review https://www.horrormovietalk.com/2018/09/12/the-nun-review/ The Perfection is Not Quite My Tempo The perfection is not a great movie, but to me it is on the precipice of greatness. I wish they had committed more to some of the more ridiculous and/or tasteless elements. Parts of this even reminded of my wistful favorite, The Human Centipede. Mainly the ridiculous reveals and the mustache twirling level villain. Stephen Weber does a great job of playing the pretentious dean of the Bachoff School of Music. In an age where no one is surprised by Shyamalan-esque twists, instead of upping the ante on the world building or character development, writer/director Richard Shepard ups the ante on the number of twists! Score for The Perfection I’m giving it a 6/10 The Perfection is not without it’s charm, and it gets a B+ for effort, but overall it’s a pretty average flick. The Perfection Movie Spoilers Expand for Spoilers First of all, lets talk about the elephant in the room. The Trailer gives way too much information about the plot away. It basically undercuts the first half of the film, since you know Charlotte has nefarious motives for Lizzie from the beginning. Not to worry though, there are plenty of twists throughout! Twist #1: Charlotte Poisoned Lizzie This is the least surprising since they pretty much give it away in the trailer. The whole bugs in vomit, and bugs under the skin was a red herring. Charlotte used some of her dead mothers' medication to make Lizzie suggestible, purposely drove her to temporary insanity, and getting her to cut off her own hand. Remember The Ruins? You Should Read Our Review! https://www.horrormovietalk.com/2019/05/08/the-ruins-movie-review/ Charlotte accomplishes her purpose, because once Lizzie returns to Bachoff, she is unceremoniously kicked out of the school. Because... who has need of a one handed cellist? I guess since, the wound was self inflicted, Lizzie couldn't prosecute Charlotte, but that doesn't keep her from kicking her ass! Lizzie brings Charlotte to Anton, and soon after, the next twist is revealed. Twist #2: Bachoff is a Sex Dungeon Conservatory The namesake of the film is a certain room where Anton (Weber) touts as being accoustically perfect. As such, he demands that only perfection of anyone that plays in that room.

Rolfe Kent and Face2Face host David Peck talk about Alexander Payne’s new film Downsizing, creating chemistry though music, experimentation, writing by walking and relentless enthusiasm. Biography Unexpected texture, sounds and a signature musical personality are the hallmarks of British film composer Rolfe Kent, who has scored more than 50 films, including Academy Award nominated Up in the Air (for which he won a Golden Satellite award), Sideways (for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe and Critics Choice Award in 2007), Labor Day, Bad Words (Jason Bateman’s directorial debut), Dom Hemingway, About Schmidt, Election, Mean Girls, Legally Blonde and Legally Blonde II, Wedding Crashers, The Matador, Reign Over Me, The Hunting Party, and Thank You for Smoking. Kent also composed the Emmy-nominated main title theme for the Showtime hit, Dexter. In 2012, he received the Richard Kirk award for career achievement. Born in England into a non-musical family, Kent intuitively felt at age 12 that he wanted to be a film composer, although his early musical training was brief and not so formal. Citing Jarre’s Lawrence of Arabia and Morricone’s The Good, The Bad and the Ugly, as inspirations, Kent took the advice of an early music teacher to avoid rigid course work that would dampen his enthusiasm. He followed an entirely different path and, taking counterpoint to what is often cited as culture mired in cynicism, profited from his early course work in theology to relate it to music. After enrolling in psychology sutdies at Unviersity of Leeds in Yorkshire, Kent’s musical career was casually begun at a dance club when the director of a play offered him a chance to “do” the music. His jump start was his composition for a stage musical Gross at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, a springboard for Authors, composers and performers. In the confines of his musically busy studio, one can immediately see why his musical personality is as distinct and his own. Constantly on the go, adventurous and curious, Kent has developed a style that is not only distinct, but indicative of his aversion to the-anticipated-score in tone, texture and rhythm. The walls are lined with many familiar and many more unfamiliar instruments, gingerly handled and gleefully demonstrated for their sonic qualities. Among his collection are the Indonesian percussion instrument the angklung, the shawm (first used in military maneuvers as a psychological weapon), the melodica, used for the light, soothing effect in Kent’s jazz-infused score for his Golden Globe-nominated Sideways, and an instrument he discovered and cannot name that sounds like the world’s beaches at their most romantic high tide... combined. Kent has the distinction of attracting and sustaining relationships with directors as popular and diverse as Alexander Payne, Mark Waters, Jason Reitman, Burr Steers, and Richard Shepard. Synopsis “Alexander [Payne, writer/director] asked for the score to be beautiful classical music,” Kent described. The composer wanted to avoid movie-score clichés and took a different route. “I figured a Kubrickian approach was best, where the music sounds like it existed outside of the film, and was discovered to match the scene perfectly.” Known for using unexpected textures, sounds and his own signature musical personality this opened the floodgates for Rolfe. “As ever, Alexander was open to hearing unexpected sounds, so when I threw him the curve of an opera aria sung in Norwegian, or some bagpipes. He loved it.” In addition to writing the original score for the film, he also co-wrote the original song “A Little Change In The Weather,” performed by The Swingles.

But those actors are so faaaaaaar away from where so many of us are today! Wouldn’t it be great to hear from the guy who just booked his first pilot? Or the kid finally doing a studio pic after a bunch of low budget indies? Or the woman who’s been a series regular a few times but is only now becoming a name? What about the guy who’s been on a show for years and you know his face but what’shisnameagain? Or that actress who is now a freakin’ showrunner???? How’d THEY do it, right? How did they transition from relative obscurity, bartending and bottle service, to buying that house in the hills? We’re producing “Kahnversations,” a podcast that provides access to THOSE people -- your immediate predecessors -- so that you can learn from them while their battle scars are still fresh. In “Kahnversations,” our own Ryan Bailey interviews some of Lesly Kahn & Company’s working actors, directors, and writers in order to learn how they got started in Hollywood, the challenges and hurdles they faced, and how they overcame the odds. (They also dish out some crazy stories!) Listen in and enjoy as these entertainers speak candidly about their paths, processes, and experiences. You might even hear a bit about how Lesly and the Kahnstitute have influenced and shaped their careers.
