Send us a textFriends of EddieThe second 1x1 feature rounding out Season 14 and, chosen by Jack, the film is THE FRIENDS OF EDDIE COYLE (1973). Directed by Peter Yates, whose career TGTPTU is unlikely to cover in a future 4x4 despite having Krull and Bullitt in his credits, TFOEC is an adaptation of George V. Higgins' inaugural novel and notable as a unromanticized depiction of crime in artistic response to The Godfather, the Puzo book and Coppola film each preceding, respectively, the book and movie versions of TFOEC by one year.  Higgins would take issue with the book as his debut novel. The former deputy assistant attorney general claimed to have written and burned 14 novels over 17 years prior to TFOEC and would go on to author over 30 books, both fiction and nonfiction before his fatal heart attack in 1999, but none with the impact of his first. As seasonal guest host Jack points out, nearly all the dialogue in the film is as it is on the page, and the pages are dripping with dialogue that creates the setting and action for this ironic story of “friends” who double-cross and live less than glamorous lives as Irish mobsters and criminals in Boston.  Yates populates the film with faces, faces that we don't see much anymore, distinct faces and every one telling a story, from the titular Coyle plated by Robert Mitchum who earlier in this life reluctantly left the assembly line to be an actor to actor Alex Rocco who starred as Moe Greene in The Godfather and helped Mitchum meet some of his old criminal friends whom Rocco had to leave behind after he (the actor Alex Rocco) was held for questioning in relation to the murder that kicked off the Boston Irish Gang War of the 1960s to James Tolkan before he'd lost his hair a decade prior to portraying Principal Strickland in the Back to the Future movies and Detective Hugh Lubic in the Cannon Films classic Masters of the Universe.  For this episode, everyone did research: Jack and Thomas pair off for book report; Ryan covers the career of Mitchum; and Ken covers Yates and laments how now Hollywood lacks hacks as well as provides a new shaggy dog with The Pals of Charlie Brown. Make sure to wipe your prints clean on this one before listening with a friend. 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-gBuzzsprout: https://thegoodthepodandtheugly.buzzsprout.com/Letterboxd (follow us!): Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

Il fut un temps où on considérait que les histoires d'amour compliquées, qu'on jugeait sordides, ne pouvaient se produire que dans le monde de la musique et du cinéma. Il n'en était rien, évidemment, juste le fait, non négligeable que le scandale faisant vendre, ces histoires étaient médiatisées à l'extrême. Et au milieu des années 70, où le divorce se porte encore en société comme une bosse sur le dos, c'est un drame quand un coup de foudre tombe sur une personne publique. Surtout quand elle vient de se marier. Je devrais dire quand ils viennent de se marier. Comment Charlotte Rampling et Jean-Michel Jarre pourraient-ils se douter que ce soir de mai 1976, ils vont tomber amoureux. Charlotte est l'actrice fascinante en vue, connue pour des rôles marquants au cinéma dans des films qui ont fait parler d'eux comme le dernier, le sulfureux Portier de nuit. Mariée depuis quatre ans au comédien Bryan Southcombe, elle vit désormais à la Côte d'Azur pour échapper au fisc britannique, comme les Rolling Stones. C'est ainsi qu'elle se trouve invitée ce soir dans un restaurant de St Tropez par l'agent artistique de Patrick Juvet qui vient de terminer un nouvel album prometteur au casting cinq étoiles. L'actrice fait donc la rencontre ce soir-là du parolier de Patrick Juvet qui est aussi celui de Christophe et dont tout le monde a en tête la chanson parue il y a peu … Le jeune musicien de 27 ans, car il est musicien aussi, il est d'ailleurs le fils du célébrissime compositeur oscarisé, se montre très loquace, drôle, en fait, Charlotte le trouve magnétique et rentre chez elle ce soir-là, très troublée. Mais pas autant que Jean-Michel car lui, est bouleversé. Il confie d'ailleurs son désespoir à Patrick Juvet car il est marié, lui aussi, et depuis un an. Et même si son mariage ne fonctionne pas, ça ne se fait pas. Mais de retour chez lui, quelques jours plus tard, Jean-Michel apprend la présence de Charlotte Rampling à Paris pour la promotion d'un film où elle donne la réplique à Robert Mitchum dont c'est le retour en force. Jean-Michel craque, l'appelle et la retrouve à son hôtel où ils restent cachés durant tout le week-end. A son retour, son mari ayant deviné qu'il s'était passé quelque chose, se fâche, Charlotte s'enfuit à Paris, Jean-Michel quitte le domicile conjugal et ils s'installent tous deux chez sa mère.Charlotte et Jean-Michel ne se cachent plus, l'affaire fait grand bruit jusqu'au divorce puisqu'ils n'hésitent pas à s'afficher ensemble lors du Festival de Cannes. Jean-Michel est alors occupé à enregistrer un disque instrumental qui de l'avis de son entourage est bien barré. Mais Charlotte l'écoute fascinée et lui annonce que ce ne sera pas facile : ce sera soit un échec retentissant, soit un triomphe sans précédent. L'histoire de cet amour naissant semble liée à celle de ce disque dont au départ personne ne veut et puis que tout le monde va prendre pour modèle, une bouffée d'oxygène.

“RICHARD CARLSON: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH” (081) - 3/31/2025 Tall, dark-haired, and handsome, RICHARD CARLSON was always a welcomed addition to any cast. From the beginning, when he was playing preppy college students opposite LANA TURNER, to his reign in the 1950s as the King of Sci-Fi thrillers, Carlson brought believability and authority to each role but also a sense of introspective thoughtfulness. You looked into his deep blue eyes and chiseled face and believed him. Whatever he was selling, we were buying. And while he never became an A-list leading man, he enjoyed a long and steady career and enhanced many a mediocre film with his special appeal. This week, we celebrate RICHARD CARLSON as our Star of the Month.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Monsters in the Machine (2016), by Steffen Hantke; Keep Watching the Skies (2009), by Bill Warren; “Richard Carlson: Albert Lea's Other Film & Television Star,” December 24, 2016, by Ed Shannon; “Today's Underrated Actor Spotlight: Richard Carlson,” June 24, 2105, by Bynum, www.thetinseltoentwins.com; “A Tribute To Richard Carlson,' January 9, 2014, www.scififilmfiesta.com; “Richard Carlson, Actor, Dies at 65,” November 27, 1977, New York Times; Wikipedia.com; TCM.com; IMDBPro.com; Movies Mentioned:  Desert Death (1935), starring Raymond Hatton; The Young in Heart (1938), starring Janet Gaynor, Roland Young, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr & Paulette Goddard; The Duke of West Point (1938), starring Louis Hayward & Joan Fontaine; Winter Carnival (1939), starring Ann Sheridan, Richard Carlson, & Robert Mitchum; These Glamour Girls (1939), starring Lana Turner & Lew Ayres; Dancing Co-Ed (1939), starring Lana Turner & Richard Carlson; Beyond Tomorrow (1940), starring Haley Carey & Charles Winning; No, No, Nanette (1940), starring Anna Neagle; The Howards of Virginia (1940), starring Cary Grant & Martha Scott; Back Street (1941), starring Margaret Sullavan & Charles Boyer; The Little Foxes (1941Ol staring Bette Davis & Teresa Wright; The Affairs of Martha (1942), starring Marsha Hunt & Richard Carlson; My Heart Belongs to Daddy (1942), starring Richard Carlson & Martha O'Driscoll; Fly By Night (1942) starring Richard Carlson & Nancy Kelly; Hold That Ghost (1941), starring Bud Abbot & Lou Costello; White Cargo (1942), staring Hedy Lamarr& Walter Pidgeon; Presenting Lily Mars (1943), starring Judy Garland & Van Heflin; The Man From Down Under (1943), starring Charles Laughton & Donna Reed; So Well Remembered (1947), starring John Mills & Martha Scott; Behind Locked Doors (1948), starring Richard Carlson & Lucille Bremer; The Amazing Mr. X (1948), starring Turban Bey, Lynn Bari, & Cathy O'Donnell; King Solomon's Mines (1950), starring Stewart Granger & Deborah Kerr; The Sound of Fury (1950), starring Frank Lovejoy; The Blue Veil (1951), starring Jane Wyman, Charles Laughton, & Joan Blondell; The Magnetic Monster (1953), starring Richard Carlson; It Came from Outer Space (1954), starring Richard Carlson & Barbara Rush; The Maze (1953), starring Richard Carlson & Hillary Brooke; The Creature from The Black Lagoon (1954), starring Richard Carlson & Julie Adams; All I Desire (1953), starring Barbara Stanwyck & Richard Carlson; Riders To the Stars (1954), starring William Lundigan; Appointment with a Shadow (1957), starring George Nadar; The Saga of Hemp Brown (1957), starring Rory Calhoun; Johnny Rocco (1958), starring Richard Evers & Coleen Gray; Tormented (1960), starring Richard Carlson; Kid Rodelo (1966), starring Broderick Crawford & Janet Leigh; Change of Habit (1969), starring Elvis Pressly, Mary Tyler moore, & Richard Carlson; --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.

You Must Remember This

Play Episode Listen Later Mar 25, 2025 78:55


Henry Hathaway started directing in the early 1930s and though he made movies of all genres, he was particularly associated with Westerns. This allowed him to ride out the 1960s making pretty much the same kinds of movies with the same stars (Gregory Peck, Robert Mitchum) that he had been working with for decades. But shortly after the massive success of Hathaway's True Grit in 1969 – for which John Wayne won his only Oscar – the director felt he was being put out to pasture by a changing industry. His last film would be Hangup (also known as Super Dude) a work-for-hire that he claimed he took only as a favor to the producer, and which was dismissed at the time as a sop to the Blaxploitation trend - not least by Hathaway himself.

"IT'S FATAL: WHAT IS FILM NOIR?" (PART III) (080) 3/24/2025 Welcome to the third and final installment of our series on Film Noir. As we have previously discussed the technical elements of noir and met the typical character's of noir, we will now take a look at the creative aspects of the genre that help create that special brand of dark, sexy, deadly movies. We'll discuss dialogue, and clever devices like voice overs, flashbacks, and dream sequences that enhance these dark, moody films. We'll also look at the fatalistic themes that reigned supreme throughout the genre.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Film Noir (2017), by Alian Silver & James Ursini; Into the Darkness: The Hidden World of Film Noir 1941-1959 (2016), by Mark A.

EPISODE 78 - “FILM NOIR - Part 1 - WHAT IS NOIR?” - 3/10/2025 Have you ever wondered what exactly is film noir? TCM's EDDIE MULLER describes it this way: “Film Noir is all about treachery, deceit, and paranoia. You're never quite sure what is going on, who you can trust, or what dreadful pitfall waits around the corner.” This dark and twisted film genre popped up after WWII as a quiet cynicism began to creep into the national consciousness. In film noir, there is always an underbelly of darkness that comes out to play. And within the darkness, the shadows, and the neon lights, lie many stories of crime, dishonesty, adultery, murder, and mayhem. This week, we present the first in a special three-part series that delves into the darkest of genres where crooked cops, gangsters, torch singers, barflies, and other seedy character's live, love and kill. Join us as we discuss Film Noir!  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Film Noir (2017), by Alian Silver & James Ursini; Into the Darkness: The Hidden World of Film Noir 1941-1959 (2016), by Mark A.

In this gripping episode, Stuart and Jacob tackle the intense world of "Cape Fear," comparing the original 1962 film directed by J. Lee Thompson with Martin Scorsese's 1991 remake. They dig deep into the chilling narratives of revenge and obsession, exploring the contrasting portrayals of Max Cady by Robert Mitchum and Robert De Niro. What makes De Niro's performance so unpredictable, like a more deranged Daffy Duck? How do the character arcs of Sam Bowden differ between the two films given their respective actors? And how can the 1991 version push the boundaries of horror and suspense in ways that the original could only hint at?Also featured in this episode are diatribes about "Civilization 7", the correct amount of references to "The Simpsons", a love for Joe Don Baker, and a game that Jacob slapped together in an afternoon and forces Stuart to play.

In episode four of our Visionary Remakes season, we cross-examine two versions of Cape Fear, the original starring a creepy and enigmatic Robert Mitchum, and the 1991 remake from Martin Scorsese starring a crazed and manic Robert De Niro.Special Guest: Amanda Jane Stern - writer, producer and star of the award-winning psychosexual thriller Perfectly Good Moment. Streaming now on Tubi! Co-host of the podcast Don't Be Crazy.Both versions of Cape Fear are anchored by dazzling performances of the antagonist, Max Cady. Robert Mitchum reduces the overtly violent nature of Cady in order to play up his cleverness, obsessiveness , and wiliness. De Niro goes over the top in his version of Cady, playing him as zany, an almost comical but brutal cartoon villain. This difference underlines the drastically opposed tones, vibes, and outcomes of each version of Cape Fear. The 1962 original focused on the limits of justice. It clearly asks and attempts to answer where the line between enforced law and moral justice lives, albeit wrapped in a juicy and sensational B-movie plot. Scorsese's 1991 remake does not ask those questions, but it does drench us in pulpy genre stimuli: graphic violence, improprietous sexuality, and domestic disputes. The debate we have in this episode is whether either film is successful in its intended mission. Is the original too flat for a genre flick and perhaps too lofty to escape pretension? Do Marty and De Niro swing away and strike out, can a trashy thriller be too much even if it attempts to do nothing more than shock?

We're deep into our second annual Christmas movie theme and we haven't mined any material from, or inspired by, the Charles Dickens classic “A Christmas Carol”. Fuck it, this year we'll do two adaptations and maybe catch an old version of the story next year. This particular adaptation was prime basic cable Christmas break material when we were kids and in many ways it holds up and even impresses in certain ways. Bill Murray could carry a comedy in the 80s and his leading role of a stingy TV executive Scrooge-stand-in does deliver some quality jokes bouncing off of an extended comedic cast. Richard Donner's 1988 Christmas comedy “SCROOGED” remains pretty worthy holiday cheer and there's no shortage of prime 80s stars including Bobcat Goldthwait, Carol Kane, David Johansen, Alfre Woodard and Karen Allen. There's also some nice appearances from veteran actors of TV and film such as Robert Mitchum, John Forsythe, John Houseman and Buddy Hackett. Miles Davis is even in this thing. Folks, you gotta bring out the bells and whistles when you're adapting a story that everybody knows. You gotta throw some horror in there. Maybe even a little sadism. Just go with it.

Christmas is in the can. New Years is just around the corner but it's still that most wonderful time of the year and your soon to be permanently renamed movie talk feed/show/pod is here with another Christmas classic featuring one of our favorites, Robert Mitchum. A fairly strange tale for the Hayes code time as two men, one a rich niceboy and the other a broke swaggart, are after the same single mother. It's a dirty game and Connie's rascal kid has a preference real quick. You know where this will go but it's an interesting journey to get there with some nice performances. Don Hartman's 1949 classic Christmas rom-com “HOLIDAY AFFAIR” stands out as worthy little charmer for the holidays. It also stars Janet Leigh & Wendell Corey who plays Carl who, despite being NOT the love interest, might be the nicest guy on the planet in 1949. Mitchum's “Steve” is not so nice in comparison but you know he's gonna get you outta them britches. Maybe even late era Mitchum when he was just walking around with those big glasses. He was also constantly drunk. He threw a basketball at a lady and knocked out her teeth. Does that eliminate him as our dawg? …not yet. The needs to be a deliberation period.

Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Carrie Mitchum, daughter of actor Christopher Mitchum, granddaughter to iconic actor Robert Mitchum and mother to actor Grace Van Dien. And while that's a lot of actors in your family, we haven't even mentioned her actor brother, her actor uncle, her great actor or her own acting career! I'm talking actors! That's quite a family business! The Fonda's, the Bridges' and the Douglas's aint got nothing on The Mitchum's. Although maybe the Huston's rival all this. Anyway, I digress…. We jumped around on the latest episode with Carrie because there was frankly so much to talk about. Of course we wanted to know what life was like with Grampa Robert – and we do. But we also heard so much about her own acting career starting with the soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful as well as her time growing up in Europe and Asia on movie sets starring her father. Moreover, it's a total trip to know she had cookies on sitting on the lap of one of Europe's most feared dictators as part of that experience. We also talk to Carrie about her grandfather's film and his recording career, her father's films with John Wayne, growing up at the Green Acres estate with Harold Lloyd and our prior guest Suzanne Lloyd, the poetry of Robert Mitchum, her daughters time on Stranger Things, grampa's favorite food, being on the set of the film, That Championship Season, how no one really knows a family dynamic just by reading a tabloid, what NAR means, The Mitchum Steakhouse, being married to a “sex symbol” and much more. This is the Rarified Heir Podcast and everyone has a story.

We're concluding our Noirvember celebration with a quintessential example of the genre. Brandon is joined by, friend of the podcast, Emmett Stanton to break down 1947's Out of the Past. The movie is still as fresh and stylish as it was nearly when it was released. Brandon and Emmett pay tribute to the taut direction by Jacques Tourneur whose use of light and shadow exemplify what noir is all about. The hosts also highlight the performance of the incomparable Robert Mitchum in a career-defining role. Both Brandon and Emmett agree that its Jane Greer who walks away with the film, however, as the ultimate femme fatale.

In this Gain of Fiction/FAA crossover, Glen Rockney and I uncover the modern day relevance of Chandler's first and best novel The Big Sleep (1939), and the classic Howard Hawks 1946 movie adaptation starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, and what they teach about being a man.

The Night of the Hunter was Laughton's only film as a director, in which he employed a blend of silent film and stage techniques that make it one of the most unique and effective noirs in cinematic history.

Book Vs. Movie: The Night of the HunterThe 1953 Novel Vs. the 1955 Classic MovieDavis Grubb's 1953 novel *The Night of the Hunter* and its 1955 film adaptation by Charles Laughton offer haunting interpretations of a sinister preacher, Harry Powell, and two children fleeing him. The novel delves deeper into Powell's twisted morality and religious fanaticism. At the same time, the film, featuring Robert Mitchum, presents him as a symbolic figure of evil with striking visual elements, including his "LOVE" and "HATE" tattoos. The book maintains a grounded, psychological tone, while the movie employs a surreal, expressionist style to illustrate the battle between good and evil. Which version did we (the Margos) prefer?

[School of Movies 2024] For this rather special episode, we firstly welcome to the show for the first time, director Alfred Hitchcock, as we examine his most famous and most revisited film, Psycho (1960). This became the wellspring from which modern-day detective thrillers emerged. But it also has tangled roots in Horror and the grubby stepchild of its sub-genres, the slasher. While other films like Charles Laughton's Night of the Hunter (1955) and John Lee Thompson's Cape Fear (1962) -both weirdly starring Robert Mitchum- were also hugely important, Psycho was less about the stalking killer as it was a torrid dive into the swampy waters of their mind. Deriving from a 1959 novel by Robert Bloch, who lived down the road from Ed Gein as he was being arrested for trying to make a woman-suit, this story, along with Tobe Hooper's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) and Thomas Harris' Silence of the Lambs (1988) assisted greatly in the lurid, pulp sensationalism of the twisted deviant killer-man-in-a-dress mythology. Despite quiet, clear, firm, researched and experienced protestations from trans folk and their allies who keep having to remind the world at large that they aren't toilet-lurking monsters. We also look at the stunningly ill-advised shot-for-shot remake of the Hitchcock film, directed in 1998 by Gus Van Sant. Superficially, these are exactly the same film, but the devil is in the details. Next week we will be returning to Bates Motel with the far less well-known, but actually pretty good Psycho II, which more pronouncedly paints Norman as a victim.

EPISODE 56 - “MARJORIE REYNOLDS: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH” - 10/07/2024 Most film fanatics agree that after the Paramount Picture's holiday classic “Holiday Inn” (1942), actress MARJORIE REYNOLDS, who gave a star-turn as struggling actress Linda Mason who gets a break singing and dancing in the seasonal nightclub run by BING CROSBY, should have been a big star. However, for reasons not quite clear, she didn't rise into the stratosphere. While she had a very respectable and long career, she just didn't soar to the top, as expected. As our Star of the Month, we will take a look into Marjorie Reynolds' life and career and explore our theories on why “Holiday Inn” did not make her a major star.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Christmas In the Movies (2023), by Jeremy Arnold; Whatever Became of…10th Series (1986), by Richard Lamparski; My Heart Belongs (1976), by Mary Martin; Scarlet Fever (1977), by William Pratt (including the collection of Herb Bridges); The Film Lovers Companion (1997), by David Quinlan; Biography of Marjorie Reynolds, July 25, 1942, Paramount Pictures;  “Super Cinderella,” November 1942, by William Lynch value, Silver Screen magazine; “Marjorie's Horse Comes In,” November 7, 1942, by Kyle Crichton, Collier's Magazine; Versatility Pays Off for Marjorie Reynolds,” March 10, 1944, by Hedda Hopper, Los Angeles, Times; “Divorce Plans Discussed by Miss Reynolds,” July 23, 1951, by Hedda Hopper, Los Angeles, Times; “Marjorie Reynolds to Be Wed to Film Editor,” May 16, 1952, Los Angeles, Times; “Marjorie Reynolds Weds Film Editor,” May 18, 1953, The Sedalia Democrat (Missouri); “Marjorie Reynolds: Sixty Years in the Film Business,” April 1984, by Colin Briggs, Hollywood Studio Magazine; “Marjorie Reynolds, 79, Actress, In Classic Films and on Television,” February 16, 1997, The New York Times; TCM.com; IMDBPro.com; IBDB.com; Wikipedia.com; Movies Mentioned:  Holiday Inn (1942), starring Bing Crosby, Fred Astaire, Marjorie Reynolds, & Virginia Dale; Wine, Women, and Song (1933), starring Lilyan Tashman; Murder In Greenwich Village (1937), starring Richard Arlen & Fay Wray; Tex Rides With The Boy Scouts (1937), starring Tex Ritter; The Overland Express (1938), starring Buck Jones; Western Trails (1938), starring Bob Baker; Six Shootin' Sheriff (1938), starring Ken Maynard; Star Spangled Rhythm (1942), starring Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Dorothy Lamour, Veronica Lake, & Alan Ladd; Dixie (1943), starring Bing Crosby & Dorothy Lamour; Up In Mabel's Room (1944), starring Dennis O'Keefe & Gail Patrick; Ministry of Fear (1944), starring Ray Milland; Three Is A Family (1944), starring Charles Ruggles & Fay Bainter; Bring On The Girls (1945), starring Veronica Lake & Eddie Bracken; Monsieur Beaucaire (1946), starring Bob Hope & Joan Caulfield; The Time Of Their Lives (1946), starring Bud Abbott & Lou Costello; Meet Me On Broadway (1946), starring Fred Brady & Spring Byington; Heaven Only Knows (1947), Bob Cummings & Brian Donlevy; Badmen of Tombstone (1949), starring Barry Sullivan & Broderick Crawford; That Midnight Kiss (1949), starring Mario Lanza & Kathryn Grayson; The Great Jewel Robber (1950), starring David Brian; Home Town Story (1951), starring Jeffry Lynn, Alan Hale Jr, & Marilyn Monroe; Models, Inc (1952), starring Howard Duff & Coleen Gray; His Kind of Woman (1951), starring Robert Mitchum, Jane Russell, & Vincent Price; The Silent Witness (1962), starring Tristram Coffin & George Kennedy; Pearl (1978), starring Angie Dickinson, Dennis Weaver, & Robert Wagner; --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.
