Si torna a parlare di film musicali insieme a Francesco Menici, questa volta è il turno di "New York New York" di Martin Scorsese con la coppia Liza Minelli e Robert De Niro.Un omaggio ai classici musical hollywoodiani, ma con uno sguardo più crudo e realistico, tipico dello stile di Scorsese. Celebre soprattutto per aver lanciato la canzone “New York, New York”, scritta da John Kander e Fred Ebb, diventata poi un inno non ufficiale della città nella versione di Frank Sinatra.

Send us a textWhen three friends—a doctor with a glass eye, an African-American lawyer, and a mysterious nurse-turned-artist—become entangled in a murder investigation in 1930s New York, they uncover a sinister conspiracy that reaches to the highest levels of American power. What begins as a quest to clear their names transforms into a fight against a fascist plot to overthrow the U.S. government."Amsterdam" represents one of the most perplexing cinematic experiments of recent years. Christian Bale delivers a fully committed, physically transformed performance as Dr. Burt Berendsen, a WWI veteran who creates unconventional pain medications for fellow soldiers while sporting a prosthetic eye that refuses to stay in place. Alongside John David Washington's stoic Harold Woodman and Margot Robbie's enigmatic Valerie, they form an unlikely trio whose bond was forged in the trenches of Europe and the artistic paradise of Amsterdam.The film attempts to tackle weighty themes—fascism's rise, America's flirtation with authoritarianism, racism, and the corrupting influence of wealth—but repeatedly undermines itself with jarring tonal shifts. One moment we're witnessing the horror of war wounds, the next we're watching Mike Myers and Michael Shannon engage in bird-watching espionage comedy. Taylor Swift makes a memorable appearance only to meet an abrupt and darkly comedic end that epitomizes the film's bizarre approach to storytelling.What makes "Amsterdam" particularly frustrating is the glimpse of greatness hidden within its meandering narrative. Based on the real-life "Business Plot"—a legitimate 1933 conspiracy by wealthy industrialists to overthrow FDR's government—the film had the potential to deliver a timely warning about democracy's fragility. Instead, it buries this fascinating history under quirky character studies and surrealist digressions that never cohere into a satisfying whole.Robert De Niro brings gravitas as the decorated general these conspirators hope to manipulate, while Rami Malek and Anya Taylor-Joy deliver unsettling performances as the wealthy siblings with disturbing agendas. The cast's commitment can't rescue a script that constantly loses focus, jumping between 1918 flashbacks and the 1933 main storyline without allowing either timeline room to breathe.What could have been a powerful historical thriller or an effective period comedy instead lands uncomfortably between genres, testing audiences' patience with its 134-minute runtime and convoluted storyline. Has a film ever left you more bewildered by the gap between its potential and execution?Written Lovingly by AIBe our friend!Dan: @shakybaconTony: @tonydczechAnd follow the podcast on IG: @hatewatchingDAT

Matt Tyrnauer is an award-winning documentary filmmaker whose acclaimed works include the Oscar-shortlisted VALENTINO: THE LAST EMPEROR, STUDIO 54, and WHERE'S MY ROY COHN? Chef Nobuyuki "Nobu" Matsuhisa is a globally renowned Japanese chef who revolutionized modern cuisine by blending traditional Japanese techniques with Peruvian ingredients. His partnership with Robert De Niro created the Nobu empire, which now encompasses over 50 restaurants and 15 hotels worldwide. This pairing brings together Tyrnauer's intimate documentary storytelling with Matsuhisa's extraordinary journey from a troubled youth in Japan to global culinary icon, with Tyrnauer's upcoming documentary NOBU capturing the chef's philosophy and relentless pursuit of culinary perfection. In this interview, we talk about Tyranuer's approach to documentary filmmaking and Chef Nobu's philosophy and creativity. We also talk about mentorship and passing on knowledge, personal reflections and emotional moments during the film, and much more. Want more?

It all starts with the fish. In director Matt Tyrnauer's (“Carville, Winning is Everything, Stupid”) delectable and insightful new documentary “Nobu,” we are reminded of this fact when Nobu himself, the man behind the restaurant empire that shares his name, reels in a fish, skins, slices and serves it right on the boat to friends and family. It is one of many revelatory scenes that, taken as a whole, peel back the layers of Nobuyuki “Nobu” Matsuhisa's life and his long journey to re-define sushi for the modern world.   Matt joins Ken on the pod to shed light on his observational approach to documentary portraiture and to explore the unique and ever-expanding Nobu style. Rather than a straight line to success, Nobu's story is one of early struggles, crushing failures and constant attention to detail. From a tense scene featuring an executive chef struggling to reproduce one of Nobu's signature dishes to a humdrum meeting of Nobu's business partners (including the actor and Nobu partner Robert De Niro in a surprising and riveting star turn) that suddenly turns contentious, “Nobu” not only spotlights the talents of a game-changing chef, but once again reminds us why the hard-earned observational approach is as satisfying as a perfectly prepared plate of sushi.   “Nobu” is being released by Vertical in theaters in NY on June 27th and in cities nationwide beginning July 4th.   Follow: @tyrnauer on Instagram and @mtyrnauer on X @topdocspod on Instagram and X   And now, also look for “Top Docs” on YouTube!   The Presenting Sponsor of "Top Docs" is Netflix.

This week, we're stepping into the ring with Hands of Stone (2016), the boxing biopic that tells the story of legendary Panamanian fighter Roberto Durán.Directed by Jonathan Jakubowicz, Hands of Stone chronicles the life and career of Roberto Durán, one of boxing's most iconic and ferocious competitors. The film stars Édgar Ramírez as Durán, delivering a fiery performance that captures both his aggressive fighting style and his turbulent personal life. Robert De Niro plays legendary trainer Ray Arcel, bringing a more restrained, mentor-like energy to balance the film's intensity.The movie charts Durán's rise from a poverty-stricken childhood in Panama to becoming a world champion, with his infamous 1980 "No Más" fight against Sugar Ray Leonard (played by Usher Raymond) serving as the emotional and narrative centerpiece. Alongside the boxing drama, Hands of Stone explores themes of national pride, personal redemption, and the costs of fame.Robert De Niro, no stranger to boxing films after Raging Bull, plays Arcel with quiet wisdom. His scenes with Ramírez are a highlight, exploring the mentor-protégé dynamic with subtlety.While Hands of Stone doesn't reinvent the boxing biopic, it hits many satisfying beats. It's a film about second chances, pride, and perseverance — all wrapped in some bruising fight scenes. Édgar Ramírez gives a passionate, physical performance, and De Niro's presence lends the film extra gravitas.Some of the storytelling can feel a bit formulaic, and it occasionally leans too heavily on sports movie clichés, but for fans of boxing dramas, it delivers plenty of punches — both literal and emotional.Join us in the episode as we discuss Durán's legacy, the art of the boxing biopic, and whether this one truly goes the distance.

Tonight's Triple Feature is a director spotlight on Barry Levinson, a filmmaker whose career is as quietly influential as it is stylistically fluid. We're looking at three of his most potent and thematically rich films: Good Morning, Vietnam (1987), Sleepers (1996), and Wag the Dog (1997). While these movies differ wildly in tone—ranging from manic comedy to grim drama to razor-sharp political satire—they're united by something deeper: a fascination with storytelling as both a tool of survival and a weapon of manipulation.To understand how these films fit together—and what they say about Levinson himself—we need to start with the man behind the camera.Who Is Barry Levinson?Barry Levinson emerged from the 1980s auteur boom with a distinctly humanistic voice. A Baltimore native, Levinson first made his mark as a screenwriter, penning ...And Justice for All (1979) and Diner (1982), the latter of which marked his directorial debut. He quickly carved out a niche making intelligent, character-driven dramas with sharp dialogue and a blend of humor and melancholy.You might call him an American moralist—but a flexible one. His best films don't preach; they interrogate. Levinson doesn't arrive at the story with a hammer and message—he arrives with a question. What is the cost of truth? What happens when institutions fail? What stories do we tell to protect ourselves… or to control others?This puts him in a rare category: a commercial filmmaker who consistently tackles uncomfortable ideas, often smuggled into crowd-pleasing packages.The Aesthetic: Naturalism Meets Narrative ControlVisually, Levinson isn't flashy. He doesn't announce himself with whip-pans or long takes. Instead, his aesthetic is clean, restrained, and deceptively simple—he clears space for character and performance. He's a director who understands the power of a well-cast actor and a lived-in setting.But beneath the grounded surface, Levinson is obsessed with the structure and function of narrative. His films constantly interrogate who gets to tell the story, why they're telling it, and what the consequences are. That meta-awareness—about media, perception, and memory—is central to tonight's triple feature.Good Morning, Vietnam (1987): Humor as SubversionGood Morning, Vietnam is perhaps Levinson's most accessible film, largely thanks to Robin Williams' explosive, genre-defying performance as real-life military radio DJ Adrian Cronauer. On the surface, it's a war comedy—a zany, rapid-fire laugh-fest set against the backdrop of Vietnam. But dig deeper, and it's a biting exploration of truth, censorship, and the psychological cost of telling jokes in a world on fire.Levinson lets Williams run wild, yes—but he also carefully frames Cronauer as a man whose humor is both a coping mechanism and a form of protest. The military brass wants control over the narrative. Cronauer wants to tell the truth, or at least laugh at the lie. And that tension—between comedy and tragedy, propaganda and rebellion—makes the film more than just a showcase for improv. It becomes a study of how humor can be a form of defiance in the face of institutional rot.This is Levinson at his most charming, but also his most subversive. He knows a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down—and he laces the sugar with acid.Sleepers (1996): Trauma, Brotherhood, and Justice Outside the SystemNearly a decade later, Levinson delivered Sleepers, a completely different animal. Based on Lorenzo Carcaterra's controversial novel (whose “based on a true story” claim remains disputed), Sleepers is a dark, operatic tale of childhood abuse and adult revenge. The humor of Vietnam is gone. In its place: Catholic guilt, corrupted institutions, and the brutal costs of unresolved trauma.If Good Morning, Vietnam was about resisting propaganda, Sleepers is about rewriting it. The second half of the film becomes an elaborate lie—a staged trial, manufactured witnesses, rigged outcomes—all orchestrated not to deceive the audience, but to achieve justice the legal system refuses to provide.Levinson doesn't ask us to condone this. He asks us to understand it. What happens when the people we trust—priests, guards, judges—become the abusers? And what happens when no one will hold them accountable?This is Levinson's angriest film, and his most emotionally direct. It's also deeply personal. Set in Hell's Kitchen in the 1960s, it's saturated with nostalgia—until that nostalgia curdles. It's the American coming-of-age story turned into a horror film.And once again, we're dealing with a narrator—Jason Patric's character—telling us the story long after the fact. But can we trust him? Should we?Levinson doesn't answer. He just holds the camera steady.Wag the Dog (1997): Manufacturing Reality in Real TimeIf Sleepers is a courtroom drama told through shadows and memory, Wag the Dog is a satire of the same mechanisms—but weaponized in real time. Released just weeks before the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal broke, this film is practically prophetic.A spin doctor (Robert De Niro) and a Hollywood producer (Dustin Hoffman) fabricate a fake war to distract from a presidential sex scandal. It's absurd. It's hilarious. And it feels… inevitable.This is Levinson in full meta mode, stripping the illusion of politics down to its skeleton. But while the premise is cynical, the filmmaking is precise and controlled. The performances are pitch-perfect. The script, by David Mamet and Hilary Henkin, is lean and lethal. And the message is terrifying:If the story is good enough, the facts don't matter.Wag the Dog completes the arc that began with Vietnam. In that film, the media truth-teller is punished. In Wag the Dog, the media manipulator is rewarded. Humor, once a weapon of rebellion, has become a tool of control. The satirical bite here is so sharp it draws blood.What These Films Say About LevinsonTaken together, these three films show a director fascinated by the moral weight of storytelling. Levinson keeps returning to the same idea: that narrative is power. Whether it's used to comfort soldiers, avenge childhood trauma, or distract a nation, stories shape the way we see the world—and they're always being weaponized by someone.He's not flashy. He's not dogmatic. But Barry Levinson understands something fundamental: that the line between truth and fiction is thin, fragile, and often chosen for us by people we'll never meet.And that's what makes him one of the most essential—and underrated—American filmmakers of the last 40 years.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

The June jobs number looks stronger than it really is I want to be clear; I wouldn't say this was a bad report, but the headline number that showed an addition of 147,000 jobs in the month of June doesn't show the full picture. The number did come in well above the estimate for 110,000 jobs and it follows upward revisions in the months of April and May that have totaled 16,000 jobs, but the concerning part I saw was government accounted for 73,000 new jobs in the month of June. This did not come from the federal government as that actually saw a decline of 7,000 jobs, but rather it was state and local governments which added a combined 80,000 jobs in the month, most of which came from education. The speculation is that this had something to do with seasonal adjustments and that obviously gains of that magnitude will not continue moving forward. Other areas that were strong included healthcare and social assistance, which was up 58,600, leisure and hospitality, which was up 20,000, and construction, which was up 15,000. Many of the other areas in the report were quite muted and manufacturing and professional and business services actually saw a decline of 7,000 jobs each in the month. There was good news on the unemployment rate as it ticked down to 4.1%, which was the lowest level since February and came in below the expectation for 4.3%. Unfortunately, this largely came due to the decline in the labor force participation rate, which dropped to 62.3%. This was the lowest level since late 2022. The problem here is the working age population continues to shrink, while the retirement population continues to grow. In fact the prime working age participation rate was recently near a record high of 83%. A potential problem to future job growth is the fact that we are running low on workers in their prime. This report largely erased any chance of a Fed rate cut in July, but I would say there was more positive news on the inflation front as average hourly earnings saw a manageable year over year increase of 3.7%. As I said, this wasn't a bad report and in fact I would say it continues to show that the labor market is in a good spot for the most part, but it definitely wasn't an overly strong report in my opinion.   Job openings remain strong The Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, also known as the JOLTs report, showed job openings rose 374,000 in the month of May to 7.769 million. This easily topped the estimate of 7.3 million and it also comes during a month where layoffs declined 188,000 to 1.601 million. While this is positive for the economy and shows the labor market remains resilient, it does hurt the chances of a July cut from the Federal Reserve. Fed chair Powell during a panel said, ““In effect, we went on hold when we saw the size of the tariffs and essentially all inflation forecasts for the United States went up materially as a consequence of the tariffs.” With the labor market staying strong and many Fed members likely waiting for more data on how tariffs are impacting inflation, I would be surprised to see a cut in July. Although there have been a couple members saying a cut in July is possible, I still believe it would come as a surprise as many other members have expressed their desire to remain patient. I can see the case for a July cut, but I believe it is more likely we will see one in a couple months at the next meeting in September, if inflation remains in check.   Why did Apple produce the new movie F1? Apple is obviously known for the iPhone, the iPad and the Mac, but a top producer of mega hit movies, not so much. Since 2019 they have tried to produce big hit movies like Killers of the Flower Moon in 2023 that starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert DeNiro, but the world box office receipts were only $159 million. Another hit movie they tried for that ended up as their top movie in 2023 was Napoleon with $221 million in box office receipts. So why did Apple agree to spend almost $250 million more to produce F1, which stars Brad Pitt? No one seems to understand. Brad Pitt will be paid $20 million for this movie and will get a cut of the films revenue if it's a hit. It does have some chance for success since it was directed by Joe Kosinski and produced by Jerry Buckheimer, who were successful with Top Gun Maverick as that movie grossed $1.5billion in 2022. This past weekend F1 was the top box office hit with $55.6 million, but it appears to be struggling with the mass audience as most viewers were older men like myself who love cars and racing. I have not seen the movie yet but would like to soon. Apple seems to struggle in this space as it is spending billions of dollars annually but continues to lose on the development of hit movies. Apple TV+ only has roughly 27,000,000 subscribers and is known for subscribers canceling their subscription after watching a particular show or movie. Netflix has a 2% cancellation rate while Apple's is 6% in any given month. It's also interesting to note that the big movie production house Warner Brothers is responsible for distributing F1 and will receive a percentage of box office revenue that increases as ticket sales rise. There is some concern that in less than two weeks, Warner Brothers will be releasing their hit movie Superman and that could override the promotion of F1. If you want to see the movie F1 and you have Apple Pay you can get a discount on the tickets, which is something Apple has never done before. I won't make any judgments on the movie till I see it myself, but I don't see this boosting the lagging stock price of Apple and I do not understand why they're in the movie business.   Don't be fooled by ultra-high-income ETF's I wouldn't think I would have to warn people that if you're being offered a yield of 100% or more on a fund, the risk has to be extremely high and there is probably a good chance for loss. However, with that said this year alone $6.4 billion of new money has been placed into these high-risk funds that I assume are unsuspecting buyers who don't really understand how these funds work. Regulatory filings show that at least 95% of these ETFs are held by individual investors or small financial advisors. The way they generate this high income is by trading options contracts on a single stock. It is misleading how they come up with those ultra-high yields of 100% plus as they take the ETF's payout from option trading in the most recent month then multiply it by 12 and divide it by the fund's net asset value. As an example, we can go back to November 2022 when a fund called the YieldMax TSLA Option Income Strategy ETF (TSLY) sold options on Tesla stock and promoted the yield was 62.8%. The fund has now dropped down to under $9 a share, roughly a 80% drop in the fund. This is somewhat surprising to most since during that timeframe Tesla stock is up around 70%. Sometimes people think just because there's income or a nice yield that the fund is safer, but investors should remember that in most cases, the higher the yield the higher the risk.   Financial Planning: Pension lump sum vs monthly income? When deciding between taking a pension benefit as a lump sum or monthly payments, it's helpful to compare the guaranteed income stream to the return you'd need on the lump sum to generate the same income yourself. Monthly payments offer steady, reliable income for life, essentially acting like a personal pension annuity, but most pensions do not include inflation adjustments, meaning the purchasing power of those payments may decline over time. Additionally, choosing a joint life annuity to continue payments to a surviving spouse will offer a lower monthly amount compared to a single life annuity. Since Social Security income drops when the first spouse passes, a joint annuity is usually more appropriate than a single life annuity to help maintain household income for the surviving spouse. In contrast, rolling over the lump sum into a retirement account gives you full control and the potential for growth. It also provides flexibility to structure income in a tax-efficient way allowing you to manage taxable distributions around other income sources, perform Roth conversions, or plan for inheritances and legacy goals. To make an apples-to-apples comparison, it is helpful to calculate the internal rate of return (IRR) you'd need to earn on the lump sum to replicate the monthly pension payments over your expected lifetime. For example, if your lump sum is $500,000 and your pension offers $3,000/month for life, you'd need to earn a little over 5% on the lump sum to match that income.  Keep in mind, the lump sum is also an income source and this return calculation can help clarify whether the guaranteed income or potential flexibility and growth better align with your overall financial plan.   Companies Discussed: The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

Send us a textFIRST BLOOD SPECIAL NOTE: SEASON 15 OF THE GOOD, THE POD AND THE UGLY CELEBRATES THE USE OF THE PRACTICAL AND DIGITAL EFFECT KNOWN AS THE SQUIB. IRL GUN VIOLENCE IS INTOLERABLE AND RENOUNCED BUT... CINEMATIC VIOLENCE WILL BE CELEBRATED IN A WAY WILL DISTURB SOME LISTENERS.   FIRST BLOOD (1982), a.k.a. Rambo I! Surely the best possible pick for TGTPTU's Season 15 – Squib Season. An‘80s action flick, special forces, small town cops, a M60 machine rifle capable of firing 600 rounds a minute… Unless… Perhaps… Could it be the sequels changed the original movie, that actually the Rambo series starts not as the rah-rah patriotic killer of anonymous foreign brown peoples with knife, machine gun, and explosive-tipped arrows?  Affirmative. (Yes.) After years in development hell trying to adapt an early 70s anti-war novel about a young returning soldier-drifter (perhaps even younger than pod host Thomas and season guest Jack) with PSTD from his time as an elite killer in Vietnam, the movie First Blood went through three production companies and eighteen screenplays--including pod fav and former 4x4 season director John Frankenheimer attached at one point and Paul Newman, Al Pacino, Steve McQueen (who liked the jailbreak+motorcycle chase), Eastwood, DeNiro, Nolte, and Michael Douglas all considered for the role--as a nearly a decade passed from the actions of the undeclared war in ‘Nam contemporary with the novel and the protagonist subsequently aged up in the movie's contemporary Regan-era world. Other elements in adapting the book for the screen included giving Rambo a first name (John); omitting alternating storylines between Rambo and Sheriff Teasle; reducing the vet's body count from intentional dozens killed in the forest and back in town to one confirmed death falling from a helicopter after John Rambo throws a rock (with three additional possible from a vehicle wreck and gunshot wound), and giving Rambo a good cry at the film's end.   But while changes made, one thing unfortunate for the pod was maintained adapting the book into movie: Neither has blood squibs.   While a tree gets shot and a wall explodes in simulated gunfire, few people get plugged on screen in this action film, and those who do are sans exploded condoms of red liquid and juicy matter. Despite the franchise reputation to be parodied in pod fav Hot Shots! Part Deux (1993), this initial entry in the Rambo film pentalogy is relatively bloodless. (Here might be a good place for a parenthetical on how this film was selected by bookworm Thomas who's expressed subversive reservations about the violence inherent in this season of the pod.) This ep: Jack returns to the pod, Thomas presents the book report, Ken postulates that shooting the picture during an unexpectedly cold Canadian autumn might be why the sequels take place in warmer climes, Ryan continues his disgusting habit of recommending other film podcasts, and Sidney Poitier's Ghost Dad (1990) reenters the chat.  Note: Former presidential candidate Ross Perot's involvement with Vietnam War POW/MIA in the 80s, playability reviews of the NES and arcade Rambo video games,  and episode-by-episode recaps of the 1986 Saturday morning Rambo cartoon series were all cut for brevity.  THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gLetterboxd (follow us!):Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias
