There were no movies starring the late Gene Hackman that were released in the US in 1999, but two of his films released in the US in 1998 – Tony Scott's Enemy of the State and Robert Benton's Twilight – were released in Europe in 1999. So because plenty has been said about the former, we are taking a look today at the latter. Directed by Kramer and Kramer writer and director Robert Benton and written by Benton and novelist Richard Russo, who also teamed up with star Paul Newman on 1994's adaptation of Russo's Nobody's Fool, Twilight stars Newman with a supporting cast of Gene Hackman, Susan Sarandon, James Garner, Stockard Channing, Reese Witherspoon, Margo Martindale, John Spencer, Live Shrieber, the dying body of M. Emmet Walsh, and Giancarlo Esposito. Twilight was a box office failure and was met with a lukewarm reception by critics, but it is a very good case study in the question as to whether or not some actors - like Hackman - could be good in absolutely anything.
In movies like “Million Dollar Baby,” "August: Osage County,” “Blow The Man Down,” and series like "The Americans,” “Justified,” and “Sneaky Pete,” “esteemed character actress Margo Martindale” loves to play people much different from herself. And she's been so good at it for so long that she only started to get truly recognized for her work in her 60s. Three Emmys later, she's able to pick and choose what she wants to do. Her latest, the Amazon series “The Sticky,” finds her number one on the call sheet and having a blast playing the bombastic maple syrup farmer Ruth Landry. On this episode she explains why the first step in her preparation process is knowing where a character was born and raised. She talks about feeling most free when she's able to “play” like she did in her backyard, what makes Alexander Payne and Robert Benton great directors, why it took some time for her to settle in to sit-com acting, and much more. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft. Follow Back To One on Instagram

Robert Benton's 1979 interior drama turned out to be one of the biggest films of the 70s. While we might appreciate Dustn Hoffman now more often than we watch his movies, this marked another example of him owning the decade. It's his movie, despite the attempt to give balance to the two Kramers fighting for the legal and moral right to raise their son. If you haven't seen this since it played in theaters for months and then became a cable-TV staple, it's worth rewatching; if you've never seen it, give it a look. Either way, be sure to listen to our conversation (and debate) about it once you finish. Kramer vs. Kramer was adapted from Avery Corman's bestselling novel, found here.

Peter Sobczynski joins Erik Childress again to talk physical media. This week you can go an early, personal work from Martha Coolidge and the debut western from Robert Benton. They talk thrillers that were ultimately remade with Amber Heard and Josh Hartnett plus the baffling dark comedy from Danny DeVito. Generational favorites range from an animated film from the ‘80s and a teen comedy from the ‘90s, but also don't forget one of the great conspiracy films of the '70s with some timely real-world publicity. Wes Craven delivers one of his leanest thrillers and Michael Ritchie has, arguably, the most messed up film of his career with Lee Marvin up against Gene Hackman. 0:00 - Intro 2:30 – Criterion (Not a Pretty Picture) 8:18 - Fun City (Bad Company 4K) 20:50 – Shout Factory (The Last Unicorn 4K, Death to Smoochy) 39:11 – Sony (The China Syndrome, Can't Hardly Wait 4K) 1:01:26 – Universal (Let Him Go, Tremors 7-Film collection) 1:10:29 - Paramount (Red Eye) 1:19:02 - Kino (And Soon the Darkness/Sudden Terror, The Apartment (1996), Prime Cut 4K) 1:39:20 – New Blu-ray Announcements

Welcome to The B-Side, from The Film Stage. Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we talk about Bruce Willis, one of our great American movie stars. A man with perfect angles and a perfectly imperfect hairline. The man who spoke up for Seagram's Golden when nobody else would. It's wet and it's dry. Play that harmonica, Bruno! Our guest today is the great Jen Johans, host of the Watch With Jen podcast. Our B-Sides include In Country, Mortal Thoughts, Disney's The Kid, and Richard Donner's final film, 16 Blocks. We discuss Willis' early career, his propensity to try new things, and the sad and unfair dismissal of Hudson Hawk. We examine how his acting chops evolved throughout a very turbulent ‘90s decade, culminating in an incredible run of success birthed from a controversial, canceled movie called Broadway Brawler. There's a lot of love for the underrated crime comedy Bandits, that song he did with June Pointer (seek out the album The Return of Bruno and the companion “documentary” if you get a few free minutes today), and the lovely Robert Benton picture Nobody's Fool. And then there's that opening car chase in Striking Distance. Incredible work there. Oh, and that cameo in The Player. And finally, in honor of our subject, please go to https://aphasia.org/ and donate if you are so inclined. Here's to you Bruce, you're one of one.

It's Popzara's Movie Time! Podcast, where our in-house movie nerds Ethan Brehm and Nate Evans take you on an unscripted journey yakking and chatting about some of their favorite movie moments and cinematic scenes, from past and present, presented without snark and snobbery for your listening pleasure. On this episode are two films harkening back to a simpler time, both cinematically and narratively, about imperfect men becoming unlikely role models. These are the type of films favoring essence over spectacle, characters over caricatures. And did we mention the snow? First up is 1994's Nobody's Fool, directed by Robert Benton and starring Paul Newman in an Oscar-nominated performance as Donald “Sully” Sullivan, a man still learning to grow up at the age of 60. Based on Richard Russo's novel (of which was recently expanded into a trilogy), it's the ultimate character study of both actor and role. Next is 2023's The Holdovers, director Alexander Payne's expressed throwback to 1970s style film-making starring Paul Giamatti in his own Oscar-nominated performance as an unlikable professor realizing just how much he still has to learn about life. Our hosts dive into both films like book nerds into great literature, and with surprising results. Listen and learn the shocking similarities between Paul Newman and Tom Cruise, and how Paul Giamatti's attempt to break into action films didn't go as planned. If they really “don't make films like they used to”, then what did we just watch?

Seconda puntata della sesta stagione di J-TACTICS, la rubrica di radiomegliodiniente.com, dedicata alla vecchia signora bianconera."Kramer contro Kramer", è un film del 1979 diretto da Robert Benton e interpretato da Dustin Hoffman, Meryl Streep e Justin Henry, adattamento dell'omonimo racconto scritto da Avery Corman nel 1971.Joanna, insoddisfatta della sua vita di madre, moglie e casalinga, un giorno abbandona suo marito Ted e il loro figlioletto Billy per ritrovare se stessa. Ted, pubblicitario in carriera, si ritrova a dover essere anche "mamma" e cerca di non far mancare niente al piccolo Billy.Qualche mese dopo, però, Joanna torna in città decisa ad ottenere l'affidamento di suo figlio.Da quel momento prende il via una battaglia legale senza esclusione di colpi che mette a dura prova la coppia e non risparmia neppure il piccolo Billy.Facendo la nostra solita trasposizione dalla cinematografia al mondo del calcio, ed in modo particolare alle vicende juventine, potremo utilizzare il titolo e le vicende narrate nella pellicola per analizzare il travagliata separazione dell'ormai ex capitano Bonucci e la vecchia signora bianconera.Un addio amaro, polemico sfociato infine in una richiesta di risarcimento danni del giocatore alla sua ex squadra.Uno scontro che porterà i due contendenti in un aula giudiziario, proprio come i due protagonista della pellicola che da il titolo all'odierna puntata di J-TACTICS, "Kramer contro Kramer", appunto.La lunga storia d'amore, ben 12 anni intervallati dalla breve parentesi al Milan, tra Leonardo Bonucci e la Juventus non è finita nel migliore dei modi.Il difensore viterbese, che a metà luglio era stato messo ai margini e all'ultimo giorno di mercato è stato ceduto in Germania, all'Union Berlino, ha deciso di citare in giudizio il club bianconero.L'ex capitano cita la Juve e vuole un risarcimento danni causati, a detta dei legali del calciatore, dalla mancanza di adeguate condizioni di allenamento e di preparazione per Bonucci, che inoltre ha subito danni di natura professionale di immagine.Il difensore sostiene di aver dovuto effettuare degli allenamenti serali in orari differenti rispetto a quelli dei compagni e di non aver mai incontrato lo staff tecnico, e inoltre che gli sia stato negato l'accesso alla palestra, alla piscina, al ristorante del centro sportivo della Juventus.Praticamente un separato in casa, un ospite mal sopportato.L'ormai ex centrale bianconero ha fatto sapere che l'eventuale somma ottenuta dal risarcimento verrebbe destinata a Neuroland, un'associazione che sostiene le famiglie dei bambini ricoverati nel reparto di neurochirurgia pediatrica dell'Ospedale Infantile Regina Margherita di Torino, nonché a "Live Onlus", altra associazione benefica.Un epilogo a dir poco triste, una storia d'amore finita a suon di carte bollate, come si suol dire, proprio come Dustin Hoffman e Meril Streep protagonisti del film diretto da Robert Benton.Per quanto controverso e non amato da tutti, Leo è stato protagonista di una parte importante della pluricentenaria storia juventina, come componente imprescindibile di uno dei pacchetti arretrati più forti e completi della storia del calcio mondiale, la cd. BBC.In 12 stagioni, non consecutive, Bonucci ha vinto 8 scudetti, con due finali di Champions League giocate, per un totale di 502 partite con la Juve, condite da 35 gol.Poche settimane fa l'addio e una causa che rende più amaro l'addio.Kramer contro Kramer, Bonucci contro la Juve.Non mancherà naturalmente un'analisi dell'altra spina nel fianco della dirigenza bianconera, Pogba, quasi mai protagonista in campo, lo è nuovamente fuori dal rettangolo di gioco.Il francese è risultato positivo ai controlli antidoping a sorpresa effettuati dopo il match contro l'Udinese.Paul Pogba sarebbe risultato positivo ai metaboliti del testosterone.Le controanalisi fissate per il 20 settembre, sono slittate al 5 ottobre.Dovesse essere confermata la positività al test antidoping effettuato dopo Udinese-Juventus, il francese rischia una squalifica fino a 4 anni, praticamente una pietra tombale sulla sua carriera.Di questo ed altro parleremo in questa puntata!Diteci la vostra, interagiremo con voi in chat live!Ecco i link dei nostri social:CANALE TELEGRAM:https://t.me/+TYOn7FZAQwet7MAtINSTAGRAM:https://instagram.com/jtactics_?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=TWITTER:https://twitter.com/RadioMDN?t=woKQltSFRUTw9qibbRZaJA&s=09

CHILDHOOD BATTLES: Join me and filmmaker Dianna Ippolito (The Obscured), as we talk Kramer v. Kramer and Marriage Story, two films about divorce and child custody battles. “What law is it that says a woman is a better parent simply by virtue of her sex?” Groucho Marx is said to have said, “Marriage is the chief cause of divorce”…Sounds like it's time for Episode 106 of Pop Art, where we find the pop culture in art and the art in pop culture. It's the podcast where my guest chooses a movie from popular culture, and I'll select a film from the more art/classic/indie/foreign side of cinema with a connection to it. For this episode, I am happy to welcome as my guest, writer/director/producer Dianna Ippolito, who has chosen as her film Robert Benton's groundbreaking Kramer vs.Kramer, while I have chosen Noah Baumbach's more contemporary take, Marriage Story, both films about a couple going through a divorce and the custody battle that ensues. And in this episode, we answer such questions as: Who was Laura Dern's character based on? What was the relationship like between Streep and Hoffman on Kramer v. Kramer? What is it about Adam Driver's looks anyway? How did Streep prevent Kramer v. Kramer from becoming misogynistic? What is incorrect when Charlie says he's "taken a residency at UCLA.

My guest this week is Terry Lindvall, the C.S. Lewis Chair of Communication and Christian Thought at Virginia Wesleyan University. Terry talks about his seminary background, looking at religion and popular culture, and we find out about Terry's academic history and his work in history, theology and communications. We discuss how both of us have been influenced by H. Richard Niebuhr's seminal work on Christ and Culture, as well as the role of censorship and why, as Terry attests, the church should be using movies as they employ parables. He talks about the importance of showing film clips to his students, e.g. Pixar films, in terms of disclosing the divine. We also talk about Roger Ebert's learned film reviewing. Terry discusses how he looks at the role of prayer in film in relation, for example, to the films of Robert Benton, and the spiritual journeys that other filmmakers are on. Terry also reflects on how agents tend to stop people like us from getting through to filmmakers. Terry was born in Basel, Switzerland, and his father studied under Karl Barth. There are Swedish antecedents, too, and the young Terry would visit that side of the family at Christmas. We talk about historicity vs. fantasy in relation to Tim Burton's Big Fish and we consider how the past is sometimes wilder in actuality than it was in our imagination. Terry talks about how he writes his books for his students, that his father was an Assembly of God chaplain in the military, back in the days when movies were frowned upon, and we find out how Terry got into films and especially international animation. His most recent book is on animated parables. We find out why animation and comedies are especially key for Terry. He has taught church history, also, especially with respect to helping Terry understand about laughter and satire. Terry talks about why the worst moments of our lives can also be our best and why we need to go through crisis in order to appreciate the gifts that life can bring. We learn about how he was given a C.S. Lewis endowed Chair, about the value of comedy including in the context of funerals and about the relevance of our personal stories in the way we address people. Then, at the end of the interview, we discover why Terry thinks it is important to focus on the present.
Kramer v. Kramer (1979) and Marriage Story (2019) reflect major shifts in the legal and social landscape around marriage, divorce, and child custody over the last four decades. Kramer v. Kramer, written and directed by Robert Benton, and starring Dustin Hoffman, Meryl Streep, and Jane Alexander, captured the zeitgeist of its era, becoming the top grossing film of 1979 and sweeping the Oscars; Marriage Story, written and directed by Noah Baumbach, and starring Adam Driver, Scarlet Johansson, Laura Dern, Alan Alda, and Ray Liotta, offers a gripping depiction of the disintegration of a marriage in America today. We are joined by Solangel Maldonado, a professor at Seton Hall Law School and leading expert on family law in the United States.

In the fifth episode of Season 8 (Coming-of-Ages) Kyle is joined by screenwriter David Gutierrez and musician Ben Childs to discuss the unforgiving and sad coming-of-age lessons of ambiguous moral discovery in the wild west in Robert Benton's revisionist western Bad Company (1972).
Roy Scheider plays a newly divorced New York psychiatrist named Sam Rice, who discovers that George Bynum (Josef Sommer), one of his prominent patients, has been murdered. Bynum was the curator of antiquities for Crispin's, a high-scale auction house, who engaged in a sexual affair with Brooke Reynolds (Meryl Streep), a younger woman who worked with him. During his counseling sessions, Bynum told Sam all about Brooke in such vivid detail that Sam thinks he might have fallen for Bynum's mistress himself. Those feelings get reinforced when Brooke visits Sam's office to hand him Bynum's wristwatch he left in her apartment the night of his death. Sam becomes infatuated with Brooke, but as he pursues her romantically, he's also frightened of her because she might be Bynum's murderer. As the police press him for evidence, Sam begins following Brooke to learn more, only to feel she might already be stalking him as her potential next kill. Robert Benton writes and directs.
STREEPS OF FIRE: STILL OF THE NIGHT and A CRY IN THE DARK/EVIL ANGELS Join Ken, Jack, Thomas and Andi for two very important pieces in the Streep mosaic.Streep in the 1980s was a marvel of A-list perfection, starring in drama after drama, garnering awards like crazy and generally gathering a reputation as a highbrow accent technician. This week we start with the last movie Streep made before ascending to the A-list as the finest actress of her generation, 1982's STILL OF THE NIGHT, which came out months before SOPHIE'S CHOICE. Reuniting with Robert Benton, who directed Streep to her first Oscar in Kramer vs. Kramer, Night is a clear Hitchcock pastiche/homage with Roy Scheider as a shrink who gets in over his head with the mistress of a dead patient, played by Streep, who may be a murder. As we learn in the episode, Streep was not a fan of the genre or the movie itself, doing it mostly on the fumes of her wonderful experience on Kramer (even replicating getting to write her character's monologue late in the film, like her courtroom speech in Kramer). After Sophie's Choice Streep would star in a string of dramas, until...1988's A CRY IN THE DARK/EVIL ANGELS, the infamous Australian true story of a woman who claimed a dingo ate her baby and started off a public and social firestorm that still resonates today. This is a fine movie and a bookend with Still of the Night as Streep would purposely go on after this to broaden her reputation with comedies and, years later, even action movies. It's not that Dark's failure at the box office (not because it isn't good) but she was in a rut and becoming typecast in somber dramas. The next 4 years would see her in She-Devil, Postcards From The Edge, Defending Your Life and Death Becomes Her, a string of very purposeful comedies (of varying degrees of success). Streep's turn from A-list Drama Lady to comedienne after A Cry in the Dark was remarkable at the time and still is today. Streep knew what she needed and went for it.

Greg Mottola's new CONFESS, FLETCH has so far flown under the radar in a modern-day moviegoing landscape to which it is not particularly suited, but we were won over by Jon Hamm's take on the character first portrayed by Chevy Chase, who here takes on a slacker-detective persona more reminiscent of the protagonist of Robert Altman's THE LONG GOODBYE. We're joined once again by longtime friend of the show and longer-time FLETCH quoter Noel Murray to dissect what makes this new iteration tick, before bringing Altman's film back into the picture to consider what these protagonists share, and what distinguishes them, in their ability to enter spaces uninvited, their propensity for comedic asides meant for an audience of themselves, and the supporting cast of quirky characters who surround them. Plus, Keith offers some follow-up viewing with his Your Next Picture Show pick, Robert Benton's THE LATE SHOW. Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about THE LONG GOODBYE, CONFESS, FLETCH, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email to comments@nextpictureshow.net, leaving a short voicemail at 773-234-9730, or commenting on our Patreon (patreon.com/NextPictureShow), where you can also find bonus episodes and more.

For the sixth episode of our special retrospective season, we're looking back to our season on the awesome movie year of 1967 to feature another of Jason's personal picks, Arthur Penn's Bonnie and Clyde. Directed by Arthur Penn from a screenplay by David Newman and Robert Benton and starring Warren Beatty, Faye Dunaway, Gene Hackman, Michael J. Pollard and Estelle Parsons, Bonnie and Clyde was nominated for 10 Oscars and won two. The post Bonnie and Clyde (Bonus 1967 Jason's Pick) appeared first on Awesome Movie Year.
The Mike's are taking a look at what makes Paul Newman such an amazing actor again by taking a look at the 1994 film Nobody's Fool, directed by Robert Benton and also starring Bruce Willis, Jessica Tandy, and Melanie Griffith. Listen in as Mike Butler and Mike Field discuss the ease and understatement of Paul Newman's acting. It's so real and so under the radar that it becomes underrated and under talked about because it's just so natural. The Mikes will also discuss the film's themes of responsibility and how Newman's character of Sully has taken on more and more responsibilities throughout the town as he's gotten older to make up for the responsibility of raising his son (played by Dylan Walsh), who he walked out on as a child. The themes of the film are great, the dialogue is fantastic, the supporting cast is amazing, and although this is a character piece about responsibility and growing up, there is a surprising amount of humor to the film and a breeziness to it as well.

This week, our Big Screen team talks with the Waxahachie native, who's in town to open the Dallas International Film Festival with the first movie he ever wrote – Bonnie and Clyde.
It's time for another Listener's Choice episode! This time, 2015 Pony Prize winner Ben Lott gets to select and he chose Peter Bogdanovich's 1972 screwball comedy “What's Up, Doc?” Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we delve into one of Ben's favorites. We talk about our initial expectations and experiences of this movie and how this film improves with conversation and when watched with a group of friends. We chat about the nature of screwball comedy and how it can be very difficult to jump back into an old genre but how well the writers David Newman, Robert Benton and Buck Henry pull it off here. We discuss our issues with the daffy dame played by Barbra Streisand and how she really compares to a psychopath or thief, despite the fact that once you get past the setup of the film, she really is a fun character that we grow to love. We chat about the other performers in the film, notably Ryan O'Neal and Madeline Kahn, and discuss what they bring to the table. And we talk about the nature of the comedy in the film and look at several sequences that stand out as the highlights. It's a really fun movie that we're glad to have seen, so thanks, Ben!

Meryl Streep won the first of her three Oscars for her supporting role in Robert Benton's 1979 film “Kramer vs. Kramer.” Of course, as of this episode, it's the second nomination for her out of nineteen nominations — more nominations than any other actor. And when you watch “Kramer vs. Kramer,” it's hard not to wonder why she won for supporting actress rather than actress. Sure, her screen time is much less than Dustin Hoffman, her co-star, but her role has an equal importance in the film (and if we're using the Hannibal Lecter argument, she clearly should have been nominated for Best Actress). Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our Meryl Streep series, looking at some early films for which she received Oscar nominations, and this week talking about Benton's film. We chat about how this film hit us when we last saw it in college compared to how it hit us this go-around. Hint: much stronger now. We talk about the brilliant and honest performance from all of the actors, notably Streep, Hoffman, Justin Henry, Jane Alexander, Howard Duff and just a hint of JoBeth Williams. We discuss why this story works so well and what interesting topics it hits on. We chat about Benton and his career, and we touch on Néstor Almendros' beautiful cinematography. And we talk about how the film did at a time when big blockbuster films were all the rage. It's a film we love that also broke both of us. Watch it — everyone should see it — then tune in to this week's show.
