Macintosh & Maud Haven't Seen What?!

We keep our Oscars series rolling and well, things have been rough to start. You'd think with a musical as culturally significant and iconic as this one that the movies would have done it up for fun. Sadly, this is an incredibly BORING movie. Sure, Robert Preston is incredible, and sure, the songs are fun, but after the 3rd of 17 dance breaks, you start to realize that our director just barely made a movie. They might as well have filmed the stage production and screened that instead for as much money as they sunk into this.

Bliss and Drumming: The Slow Enlightenment of the Hard Rock Drummer

Clementine Moss' new album showcasing her songwriting and singing skills is the 7-song pop/folk release NOTHING WILL KEEP US APART. This is the first single released, “Your Love,” on December 10, 2024. “Most of my songs are about love, both to the other and the divine. Where do we find light when so much feels dark? It's only in love that we find freedom, difficult as it can be to hold fast to that truth. Addressing that difficulty is a favorite theme in this album.” Written with producer/bassist Robert Preston and keyboardist William Cameron, the song echoes artists like Tom Waits, St. Vincent and Norah Jones.

EPISODE 47 - “Laird Cregar (Star of the Month) ” - 08/05/2024 With his sad, dark eyes, hulking frame, and aristocratic speech, actor LAIRD CREGAR often played the complex villain tortured by a sinister past or an unrequited love that turns into an obsession. No one played characters with suppressed anguish, a tortured soul, or darkness lingering beneath the surface better than he did. While he only made 16 films in a period of five years, he is unforgettable. His desire to be thin was his achilles heel that turned tragic.

Band Geeks of the world, unite! We're taking a fizzy summer tour through some of our favorite movie musicals – and what better way to observe the Fourth of July weekend in the USA than with one of the most patriotic and Americana-obsessed musicals of all time, the 1962 film version of Meredith Willson's 1957 Broadway musical The Music Man!   We talk about: "Rock Island" – One of the most impressive opening numbers in any musical, a laser-quick intro to the economics and social mores of early 20th-century America. "Iowa Stubborn" – The people of River City basically tell us what assholes they are. Is this song about whiteness, small town life, or the human condition? "Trouble" – Harold Hill's infamous patter song. It's like a hellfire-and-brimstone sermon, in the tradition of Jonathan Edwards and the great preachers of the Great Awakening. "Sincere" – The role that barbershop music plays in The Music Man... and in American nostalgia for a "simpler time." "The Wells Fargo Wagon" – What's the deal with Winthrop? You'll hear: Robert Preston, Barbara Cook and the cast of the 1957 Broadway cast – because we love Shirley Jones, but there's only one Marian the Librarian.   Continue the conversation with us on Instagram @gospelofmt!

When you think of film noir, you might think of “The Maltese Falcon,” starring Humphrey Bogart as the hard-boiled private detective Sam Spade. Or maybe “Sunset Boulevard,” starring Gloria Swanson as the aging, deranged silent-film star Norma Desmond. But there are also noir westerns. None is more celebrated than the 1948 "Blood on the Moon," starring Robert Mitchum. It's a classic Western immersed in the film noir netherworld of double crosses, government corruption, shabby barrooms, gun-toting goons, and romantic betrayals.

Spence and Walker discuss what it's like to be playing the smartest characters in the play; the joy of facing off in their second onstage collaboration; the highly flattering comparison they make to Robert Preston; the privilege of working with such a sensitive ensemble of actors (and a director who trusts them); and how they navigate their power as women in a play with such, as they say in the 12th century, Big Dagger Energy.

We incorrectly said Robert Wise never directed a western. Mr. Wise directed these westerns - “Two Flags West” 1950, “Tribute to a Bad Man” 1956, and “Blood on the Moon” 1948. We apologize for our oversight. The creativity of Mr. Wise is seen throughout “Blood on the Moon”.Robert Mitchum as Jim Garry rides into a conflict involving Robert Preston as Tate Riling who has a scheme to profit from a cattle swindle effecting John Lufton played by Tom Tully, reservation food prices, and U.S. Government purchasing costs. Aiding Riling is corrupt Government Agent Jake Pindalest played by Frank Faylen. Lufton's two daughters Amy and Carol played by Barbara Bel Geddes and Phyllis Thaxter disagree over the motives of Riling and Garry. Walther Brennan as Kris Barden is excellent.

The Last Starfighter (1984)Whitey and Gow, and are back with another deep dive into a classic, and today we're joined by none other than Will the Plumber – our long-time fan and guest host for this episode.In the heart of the 1980s, a time when arcades reigned supreme and science fiction cinema was shaping itself into a formidable genre, Nick Castle's "The Last Starfighter" made its debut. A lesser-known gem compared to its contemporaries, the film crafts a narrative that is as old as storytelling itself – the ordinary individual thrust into extraordinary circumstances. Plot OverviewAlex Rogan (portrayed by Lance Guest) is the quintessential everyman, a teenager bound by the limitations of his trailer park home and the lure of a nearby arcade game. His talent for the game "Starfighter" isn't just a teen's idle pastime; it becomes the golden ticket to a grander universe. The arcade game, unbeknownst to Alex, is a recruiting tool for an extraterrestrial alliance in need of pilots to defend the cosmos. As he navigates this newfound responsibility, the narrative unfolds.Highlights1. Relatable Hero's Journey: At its core, "The Last Starfighter" is a manifestation of the hero's journey, made famous by mythologist Joseph Campbell. Alex's transformation from an arcade champ to a cosmic hero is a timeless tale, making him a character audiences can root for.2. Innovative Visuals: The film made pioneering efforts in computer-generated imagery (CGI). For the first time, audiences witnessed an entire fleet of spaceships, starry dogfights, and alien landscapes brought to life without traditional model-based special effects. The graphical innovation set a precedent for what would become commonplace in future films.3. Supporting Cast: Beyond Guest's lead performance, the film features an ensemble of rich characters. Robert Preston's Centauri, the enigmatic recruiter, and Dan O'Herlihy's Grig, Alex's reptilian co-pilot, add layers of humour and heart to the narrative.Lowlights1. Tropes and Predictability: While the narrative is endearing, it often treads familiar grounds. The elements of the 'chosen one', the unsuspecting hero, and the grand battle against evil, although classic, can feel derivative.2. Aged Visual Effects: Though the film's CGI was groundbreaking in 1984, it has not aged gracefully. Modern audiences accustomed to the technological marvels of today's cinematic universes may find the graphics dated and less immersive.3. Character Depth: Alex Rogan's journey is undoubtedly compelling, but several secondary characters are deprived of a deeper narrative. The film's focus on its protagonist sometimes sidelines the richness that could have been derived from its diverse cast of characters.Cultural Impact and Legacy"The Last Starfighter" presents an interesting blend of Earthly nostalgia and space fantasy. At a time when arcade gaming was emerging as a significant subculture, the film's premise of a game being a gateway to a larger universe was novel. It became a part of the era's zeitgeist that championed the underdog, made evident in films like "Star Wars" and "Back to the Future". The film's synthesis of video gaming culture and sci-fi fantasy is arguably its most enduring legacy. In retrospect, it was ahead of its time, predicting a world where gaming would have ramifications beyond the screen. Today, as we witness the rise of virtual realities and e-sports champions, "The Last Starfighter" feels almost prophetic.ConclusionFor those who grew up in the 80s or those with an affinity for vintage sci-fi, "The Last Starfighter" is a nostalgic ride. It encapsulates a time when stories were unapologetically optimistic, when the ordinary could touch the stars, and when defeating a video game could earn you a place in a galactic battle.Despite its shortcomings and aged CGI, the movie still resonates with its core message – that hidden within the mundane can be the seeds of the extraordinary. It serves as a testament to the timeless allure of the hero's journey and stands as a tribute to an era that dreamt of galaxies far, far away, one arcade game at a time.Please follow the Podcast and join our community at https://linktr.ee/borntowatchpodcast If you are looking to start a podcast and want a host or get guests to pipe in remotely, look no further than Riverside.fmClick the link below https://riverside.fm/?utm_campaign=campaign_1&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=rewardful&via=matthew

If you've ever dreamt of being so good at a video game that it leads to your recruitment to defend the Frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan Armada. Then get in loser! We're going back to 1984 to The Last Starfighter. Luke Skywalker....er....Alex Rogan has been playing Star Wars....er....Starfighter at the farm....er....trailer park for longer than I care to remember. Literally. The Last Starfighter is one of the earliest adopters of cgi in supporting a hefty part of a films aesthetic. And although it's glaringly obvious, there is a certain charm in the fact that the cgi generated universe resembles an actual video game. Robert Preston and Catherine Mary Stewart are a breath of fresh air, wonderfully offsetting Lance Guests' acting deficit. Funnily enough, the deployment of Alex's (Lance Guest) beta unit in the movie makes his primary character feel pretty stable. Until he deploys the Death Blossom that is! Curious? I thought so.

The writer Brian Abrams, author of the new book "You Talkin' to Me?”: The Definitive Guide to Iconic Movie Quotes, joins me from New York City to discuss Sam Peckinpah and his underrated 1972 rodeo drama Junior Bonner starring Steve McQueen and Joe Don Baker. Right after Peckinpah wrapped on his controversial Straw Dogs in England, he jumped into production on Junior Bonner, a small-stakes character study about an aging rodeo rider (McQueen) who returns to his hometown of Prescott, Arizona to compete for one more victory and to reconnect with his family, including his oafish brother, local real estate developer Curly (Baker) and his estranged parents (Robert Preston and Ida Lupino). It's also the story of the landscape of the American West giving way to the suburban sprawl and exploitation of the modern world, literally being bulldozed all around the Bonner family. As Junior's rodeo star father Ace asks: “If this world's all about winners, what's for the losers?” Dismissed in its day, and somewhat of an outlier in Peckinpah's run of action films in the 1970s, time has been kind to Junior Bonner, which can be appreciated now as a Hangout Movie, three days in the life of an aging rodeo star and a fading way of life, vividly brought to life by Peckinpah and his cast. Plus we discuss Brian's new book, which looks into the origins of hundreds of classic movie lines across American film history, how some lines have entered the lexicon and live on in the culture, and the movie quotes we each have rolling around in our heads.

THE FANTASTICKS, with book and lyrics by Tom Jones and music by Harvey Schmidt, opened Off-Broadway in May of 1960 and closed forty-two years later, becoming the longest-running production in the history of the American stage and one of the most frequently produced musicals in the world. Their first Broadway musical, 110 IN THE SHADE, was nominated for a Tony Award and was successfully revived by the New York City Opera starring Karen Ziemba, and later produced on Broadway by the Roundabout Theatre Company starring Audra McDonald and John Cullum. I DO! I DO!, their two character musical with Mary Martin and Robert Preston, ran for a year on Broadway and a year on the road and is frequently done around the country and the world. (One production, in Minneapolis, played for twenty-two continuous years with the same two actors in the leading roles.) Tom in recording studio.JPG For several years Jones and Schmidt worked privately at their theatre workshop, concentrating on small musicals in new and often untried forms. The most notable of these efforts were CELEBRATION, which moved to Broadway, and PHILEMON, which won the Outer Critics Circle Award and was filmed for television. They contributed incidental music and lyrics to the Off-Broadway play COLETTE starring Zoe Caldwell and Milddred Dunnock, then later did a full-scale musical version under the title COLETTE COLLAGE. In addition to an Obie Award and the 1992 Special Tony for THE FANTASTICKS, in 1999 Jones and Schmidt were inducted into the Broadway Hall of Fame at the Gershwin Theatre, in 2012 they were inducted into the Songwriter's Hall of Fame, and in December of 2017 they received the Oscar Hammerstein Award.

Lethal Mullet Podcast Episode 217: The Last Starfighter "Greetings, Starfighter. You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan armada." - Centauri  Greetings Mulleteers, tonight as we enjoy a walk down memory lane to 1984 and THE LAST STARFIGHTER. A beloved film by many that lived through the eighties, it's a classic sci-fi story in the Spielberg like way, and is a rip roaring adventure film that takes a young teen all the way from a small run-down trailer park to teh stars and save an entire star system. Starring Lance Guest as Alex Rogan, and Robert Preston, Catherine Mary Stewart as Maggie and many more. This is a film that is near and dear to my heart, and I'd love to share my thoughts on it tonight and look at some of the great trivia. * the film stars a number of Star Trek cast, and a member of Young Guns.

Quotes:   "One of the things that are extremely powerful from a real estate perspective is to remember the VA loan itself is a phenomenal way just to get started." - Robert Preston   "It's important to leverage that, you know, four or five years preemptive to when you get out. Because when you become ‘self-employed' or you don't have a paycheck anymore if you have not built that credibility and net worth, you're shooting yourself in the foot.” - Robert Preston
