Criss Cross is a film noir often discussed and appreciated, and for good reason. Directed by the great Robert Siodmak, and starring Burt Lancaster, Yvonne De Carlo, and Dan Duryea, few other movies epitomize the feeling of film noir as well as this one all the way through to the final frame.

In 1989, Steven Soderbergh was on top of the world. By 1995, he was underneath...THE UNDERNEATH, that is! We're talking Sodie's very loose remake of the 1949 Robert Siodmak film noir CRISS-CROSS (and the 1934 novel on which it was based), noir in the 1990s, armored cars, and Soderbergh's evolving film language as he becomes the director we all know and love. Nobody's favorite Sodie movie, but maybe somebody's favorite ep? Remains to be seen! Further Reading: Criss Cross by Don Tracy Steven Soderbergh: Interviews ed.

In 1944's Christmas Holiday, Deanna Durbin and Gene Kelly, both known for their achievements in musical comedies, were cast against type as a lounge singer with a sordid past and her abusive husband respectively. Audiences seemed to be ready for the change as Christmas Holiday, directed by stylist Robert Siodmak and based on a W. Somerset Maugham story, quickly became one of Universal's most successful films of 1944. Dan and Vicky discuss the offbeat and melancholy Christmas movie along with their feelings on some recently seen movies and TV including The First Omen, Monkey Man, Zone of Interest, Beau is Afraid and Netflix's Dick Wolf docu-series Homicide New York.

It goes without saying that there's gonna be some dangerous dames all March for our noir month we've dubbed THE LEFT HAND ENDEAVOR. Today's feature has a lady that is so stunning, so femme fatale, that she's got Burt Lancaster's bisexual ass simping to the grave. I mean, this dude did time for this lady by taking the fall for her while she was sitting at a table with her actual boyfriend. It's really not clear if he ever got to second base. Either way, the Swede is dead, and who else but an insurance guy is gonna piece this puzzle together? We're talking Robert Siodmak's 1947 adaptation of the Ernest Hemingway story “THE KILLERS” starring a sad-ass Burt Lancaster, a knockout Ava Gardner and Edmund O'Brien who ain't a bad little piece of chicken in his own right. We also got a little bit of post-Oscar conversation as well. Congrats to Oppenheimer.

Director Siodmak utilizes creative camera angles and lighting techniques to craft a visually stunning noir landscape. Cinematographer Woody Bredell's high-contrast, shadowy aesthetic defines the classic film noir look and feel.

Universal 1943 is a strange one, starting with The Strange Death of Adolph Hitler, starring Ludwig Donath as a reluctant Nazi collaborator who's forced to impersonate Hitler, and continuing with Robert Siodmak's Son of Dracula, with Lon Chaney Jr. as a hapless Dracula who falls victim to femme fatale Louise Allbritton. We discuss WWII AU scenarios, the Twilight Zone scenario of being a soul trapped in Hitler's body, and the comedy team of Frank Craven and J. Edward Bromberg as a down-to-earth doctor and sub-Van Helsing forced to confront supernatural shenanigans and, worse, a wayward woman with a plan.

Book Vs. Movie: The KillersThe 1927 Ernest Hemingway Short Story Vs. the 1946 Classic FilmThe Margos are discussing Ernest Hemingway for the first time on the podcast after nine years of producing, which is shocking! His 1927 short story, The Killers, was first published in 1927 for Scribner's Magazine and is a return of his character Nick Adams who appears in several short stories. Set in Summit, Illinois, Adams has to deal with a couple of hitmen looking to take out a boxer named “Ole Anderson.” A Swedish heavyweight fighter being warned about impending doom decides to let fate take over. Like many of his peers, Hemingway detested the Hollywood versions of his work that were sanitized due to the Hays Code. In the 1946 adaptation, director Robert Siodmak and screenwriter Anthony Veiller give us more background on “The Swede” and his life after his boxing career ended. So what are the main differences between the short story and the film? Which version did the Margos like better? Have a listen!In this ep, the Margos discuss:Ernest Hemingway and his incredible life and careerThe cast of the 1946 film: Burt Lancaster (Pete Lund/Ole “Swede” Anderson,) Ava Gardner (Kitty Collins,) Edmond O'Brien (Jim Reardon,) Albert Dekker (“Big Jim Colfax,”), Sam Levene (Lt.

Robert Siodmak's gem from 1949 goes under the microscope in this episode. Motivations for this classic plot involve an armoured car heist, an old flame and axes to grind. Good natured sap, Burt Lancaster, is the inside man on the job whilst making time with his ex, turned gangster's moll, Yvonne De Carlo. Unfortunately for him, head-heavy Dan Duryea is as violent as he is jealous. Josh takes you through the beats of Criss Cross as LTP Noir continues its investigation into the world of Film Noir.

Citizen Kane isn't the only film in which the lead character dies in the beginning and sets an audience in pursuit of what to make of his final moments. Mike and Dan talk about The Killers (1946), Robert Siodmak's adaptation of Ernest Hemingway's short story and a terrific noir, right down to the clackety-clack shoes. As a reformed English major, Mike talks about the "gimmick" of the film but also how that gimmick is easily defeated by Ava Gardner standing at the piano. Dan brings in John Donne, Dylan Thomas, and a man at a gas station. John Wick makes an appearance, too. So throw that broch in the soup and give it a listen! Interested in the source material?

Está na hora de dar sequência ao ano do Film Noir no Podcast Filmes Clássicos: Fred e Alexandre convocam os dois produtores do “Podcast Cinemaventura”, Marcos Damiani e Leandro Tonello, para debater a obra de Robert Siodmak. Desta vez escolhemos como destaque dois grandes filmes do alemão nos Estados Unidos, “Assassinos” (The Killers, 1946) e “Baixeza” (Criss Cross, 1949), mas não deixamos de conversar também sobre outros film noir interessantes de Siodmak, como “Dúvida” (The Suspect, 1944), “Silêncio nas Trevas” (The Spiral Staircase, 1946) e “Uma Vida Marcada” (Cry of The City, 1948). Um dos diretores mais importantes do subgênero policial, Siodmak chegou nos EUA fugindo da segunda guerra na Europa e como muitos de seus colegas, contrabandeou na bagagem um pedaço do expressionismo alemão para o cinema de Hollywood. ---------------------- Acesse nosso site: http://www.filmesclassicos.com.br Acesse nossa página no Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/podcastfilmesclassicos/ Nos procure no seu aplicativo de podcast do celular, no Spotify, YouTube, Anchor ou iTunes.

Los asesinos en serie han sido siempre atractivos para el público, desde Jack el destripador a El asesino de las rubias de Hitchcock y M, el vampiro de Dusseldorf - Fritz Lang- El hipnotismo fantasmagórico de esos films pervive en La escalera de caracol, su fotografía de flashes y sombras, y el suspense con estilo detectivesco clásico de casa rural inglesa. Y eso que en realidad tampoco hay muchos candidatos a ser el dueño del ojo que inunda la pantalla, se ajusta los guantes de cuero, con un objetivo común, quitar la vida de mujeres con una tara. Que coincidencia que la protagonista -estupenda Dorothy McGuire- sea la víctima ideal, no puede musitar una palabra, un trauma de infancia le hizo perder la voz. Los hechos transcurren en una unidad de tiempo, una tarde y una noche de tormenta, con un ambiente cada vez más siniestro, más denso, y en un caserón con vida propia, en la planta de arriba vive postrada junto a una chimenea y multitud de trofeos de caza la señora Warren – Ethel Barrymore. , una extraña mujer de larga trenza y facilidad para dormir despierta. Siodmak concentra la historia con maestría, la cuenta de un tirón, ajustando cada detalle, cada truco de guion para aumentar la intriga, intenta no dejar tan claro que el mayor sospechoso ahí es el profesor – un George Brent de bigotillo fino y mirada oblicua- De la novela original de Ethel Lina White, Mel Dinelli y el productor Dore Schary cambiaron el té británico por el apacible entorno de Nueva Inglaterra. Esta noche buscamos el revolver de la señora Warren… Zacarías Cotán, Salvador Moreno y Raúl Gallego
In today's episode, it is early horror with an unexpected feminist twist in 1946's The Spiral Staircase, directed by Robert Siodmak. Set in 1906, the film follows Helen (Dorothy McGuire), a woman with traumatic mutism, who cares for Mrs. Warren (Ethel Barrymore), the difficult and bedridden lady of the manor. When a serial killer begins killing off women with so-called afflictions, Helen is warned that she may be next. Adapted from Ethel Lina White's novel Some Must Watch (1933), the film takes up themes such as disability and masculinity while simultaneously challenging the notion that the modern slasher film began with Hitchcock's Psycho (1960). We're breaking it all down today with spoilers, so stay tuned. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/horror-homeroom/support
In this week's Dorothy McGuire Acteurist Oeuvre-view, two very different roles for our subject: in Elia Kazan's first film, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (1945), an imperfect mother in a difficult relationship with her protagonist-daughter; and in Robert Siodmak's Gothic noir, The Spiral Staircase, (1946) a mute girl targeted by a eugenicist killer. We discuss the unique qualities McGuire brings to what could be an unsympathetic role in A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, and the intricacies of that movie's family relationships. And in Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto, we look at Set It Off, F. Gary Gray's 1996 heist movie about four women who start robbing banks together, starring Jada Pinkett and Queen Latifah.

Nous allons voir que ce film de 1944 réalisé par Robert Siodmak, contient les germes de nombre des spécificités du genre noir avec un mariage entre culture américaine et européenne, une photographie clair-obscure et l'influence des thérories freudiennes. "Phantom Lady" est une odyssée toublante et inquéitante dans la psyché humaine. Et qui a le bon goût de ne pas apporter toutes les réponses.

This week we have a look at the classic film Son of Dracula as part of our march to Halloween. This is Episode #381!Son of Dracula is a 1943 American horror film directed by Robert Siodmak with a screenplay based on an original story by his brother Curt Siodmak. The film stars Lon Chaney, Jr., Louise Allbritton, Robert Paige, Evelyn Ankers, and Frank Craven. The film is set in the United States, where Count Alucard (Chaney Jr.) has just taken up residence. Katherine Caldwell (Allbritton), a student of the occult, becomes fascinated by Alucard and eventually marries him. Katherine begins to look and act strangely, leading her former romantic partner Frank Stanley (Paige) to suspect that something has happened to her. He gets help from Dr. Brewster (Craven) and psychologist Laszlo (J. Edward Bromberg) who come to the conclusion that Alucard is a vampire.The film is the third in Universal's Dracula film series following Dracula's Daughter (1936). The film was made under different circumstances than the previous two entries in the series with a new Chairman of the Board working at Universal and several horror sequels being made since the success of the film Son of Frankenstein (1939). The film was initially being written by Curt Siodmak who was later replaced by Eric Taylor. Filming began on January 7, 1943 and concluded on February 2. Few documents related to the film's production survive from studio files or trade reports.

The first attempt on Everest took place in 1922 by a British team led by George Leigh Mallory. What happened is an extraordinary story full of controversy, drama, and incident, populated by a set of larger-than-life characters straight out of an adventure novel. I spoke with Mick Conefrey about this story. Bio: For thirty years I've made documentaries for the BBC and all the major British and US channels. I've been everywhere from the Arctic to the Himalayas to Angkor Wat and written books on mountaineering and exploration. I've been lucky to have been able to film all over over the world from Cambodia to K2, from Puerto Rico to Spitsbergen. I'm particularly interested in films about exploration and mountaineering, and have filmed in the Alps, the Himalayas and Alaska. Several of my films have won international and British awards, at festivals such as Trento, Telluride, Banff and Kendal. As both a film maker and a writer, I'm fascinated by the art of narrative. I love to find good stories with complex characters dealing with even more complex situations. My definition of good drama is what happens when people are put under pressure, and exploration and mountaineering provide plenty examples of this. My heroes: John Hunt, Graham Greene, Robert Siodmak, Tom Woolfe, Alexandra David Neel, Tom Wolfe, Orson Welles, Ella Maillart, Sir Richard Burton, John Banville, Don Cherry, Lucinda Williams. My current squeezes: Jeanette Winterson, Bobby Womack, Jo Nesbo, Carla Bley.

Casi treinta años de registros fílmicos y transformación urbana están detrás de Berlín, sinfonía de una gran ciudad (1927), filme con que el alemán Walter Ruttmann gatilló todo un subgénero cinematográfico: películas en que la ciudad es protagonista. Con la cinta, Ruttmann pretendía expandir sus horizontes de realizador experimental, pero al mismo tiempo le dio un nuevo sentido al cine realizado en clave observacional (cuyos pioneros habían sido los operadores de Lumière), generando de paso multitud de imitadores, incluyendo uno que superaría el modelo original: El hombre con la cámara móvil (1928), de Dziga Vertov. Entre los muchos artistas influidos por Ruttmann se encuentran también los jóvenes cineastas que poco después emprendieron Gente en domingo (1930), vital registro de los últimos días de la inestable y borrascosa República de Weimar. Aunque en lo formal se trata de un producto de ficción, este jovial, certero y fascinante registro de un día primaveral en lo que por entonces era la capital más importante del mundo, tiene el sabor de lo vivido y experimentado de primera mano. Tal vez la respuestas está en la juventud de Robert Siodmak, Billy Wilder, Edgar Ulmer, Fred Zinnemann, cineastas que un día se convertirían en fogueados veteranos de Hollywood, pero que en esos intensos y frágiles días de principios de los treinta, antes de los nazis, antes de la paranoia y el horror, solo se debían ser fiel a sí mismos, a lo que veían y vivían en esas calles perservadas, indelebles, en estas imágenes.

Esta "película sin actores", como se autodenomina en sus primeros minutos, contó tras la cámara con el talento colectivo de Robert Siodmak, Edgar G. Ulmer, Curt Siodmak y Fred Zinnemann, así como con un joven Billy Wilder al guion. Con vocación de retrato documental, el film utilizó actores no profesionales en una historia que, no obstante, se mueve en todo momento entre la mirada puramente observacional (e improvisada) y la dramatización meticulosamente escrita.Más información de este acto

A four-film Special Subject episode, Joan Harrison, Producer, Part 1 looks at: Phantom Lady (1944), The Strange Affair of Uncle Harry (1945), Nocturne (1946), and They Won't Believe Me (1947). These idiosyncratic noirs and Jamesian melodramas by the former Hitchcock screenwriter and honorary family member interrogate gender roles, flip gendered tropes, and deconstruct male resentment of women in ways that faintly anticipate Elaine May's work. We also discuss the Negative Capability of George Raft, the void-like charisma of Robert Young, the appealing androgyny of Ella Raines and very different vibe of Susan Hayward, Geraldine Fitzgerald's ability to be sexy and Victorian at the same time, and George Sanders' subtle way of showing us his soul dying inside of him.

An executive in Universal studio turned down Yvonne De Carlo's request for the part of the waitress in A Double Life. He explained the way the system worked--Yvonne was rock candy, not dipped chocolates. They wanted to keep her in the stuff that sold and sold. Robert Siodmak felt otherwise and fought to keep her in the role for Criss Cross that producer Mark Hellinger had promised her before his tragic death. Siodmak doesn't ask Yvonne to play rock candy or a paint by numbers noir dame. In this picture, she proves she was a great actress--and wasted in those sand and sandals pictures.

Enjoy a prototype podcast about a prototypical film genre as Gabe and special guest Patrick Ripoll talk about proto-slashers. Please excuse our dust as we run through several dozen stalk ‘n stab movies extending back to the very beginning of cinema.

The writings of underground filmmaker Jack Smith serve as a starting point for Phil and JF's second tour of the trash stratum. In their wanderings, they will uncover such moldy jewels as the 1944 film Cobra Woman, the exploitation flick She-Devils on Wheels, and (wonder of wonders) Hitchcock's Vertigo. The emergent focus of the conversation is the dichotomy of passionate commitment and ironic perspective, attitudes that largely determine whether a given object will turn out to appear as a negligible piece of garbage... or the Holy Grail. By the end, our hosts realize that even their own personal trash strata may give off shimmers of the divine.

À l’occasion de sa réédition en Blu-Ray chez “Elephant”, retour sur ce thriller expérimental de la fin des années 90 signé Steven Soderbergh. “The Endernis”, ou “A fleur de peau” dans sa version française, parle du retour d’un homme dans sa ville natale du Texas qu’il avait quitté précipitamment suite à une histoire de dette de jeu. Il y retrouve son ex-femme qui a refait sa vie mais la passion va reprendre entre les deux amants, entraînant une succession de complications et de conflits. Réadaptation du film “Criss Cross” de Robert Siodmak sorti en 1949 et que l’on retrouve aussi dans le DVD, le long-métrage de David Soderbergh va jusqu’à refaire plan pour plan des scènes cultes du film de départ. Mais en essayant de se réapproprier le matériau d’origine tout en s’en distinguant par un ton expérimental, “A fleur de peau” rate le coche du film noir et se confond dans la vague des thrillers érotiques douteux des années 90. L’intérêt de la réédition est donc bien de pouvoir comparer ces deux versions de la même histoire mais aussi d’assister aux premières des expérimentations de Soderbergh en termes de travail de l’image et des couleurs : les prémices de ce qui fera la patte du célèbre réalisateur.Podcast animé par Thomas Rozec avec Stéphane MoïssakisRÉFÉRENCES CITÉES DANS L’ÉMISSIONA fleur de peau (Steven Soderbergh, 1996), Elephant Film, Peter Gallagher, Alison Elliott, Tous des vendus !

Neste episódio inaugura-se o ciclo film noir com Pagos a Dobrar (1944), de Billy Wilder, e Assassinos (1946), de Robert Siodmak.
Mit The Killers wenden wir uns einem der prototypischsten und sehr spannenden Film Noir zu. Kurz nach dem Krieg in den USA gedreht, schafft es der deutsche Kriegsflüchtling Robert Siodmak perfekt, amerikanisches Erzählen mit expressiver, europäischer Filmsprache zu verbinden. Wir kümmern uns vor allem um die Anfangssequenz, die die wohl beste Hemingway-Kurzgeschichtenverfilmung aller Zeiten ist, und wenden uns dann der Art des Erzählens zu, die selbst für einen Noir-Film mutig, politisch und radikal ist. Wobei wir der Frage nachgehen: was ist eigentlich Film Noir und wie erkennen wir das?
"Im Augenblick tanzen wir auf einem Vulkan" – Kurt Hoffmann über die Entwicklungen beim Film der 60er-Jahre Sein Name ist heute schon ein wenig in Vergessenheit geraten, doch dem Kinopublikum der "älteren Semester" sind die Titel und die Stars seiner Filme immer noch geläufig. Der Regisseur Kurt Hoffmann hinterließ eine Filmothek von knapp fünf Dutzend Filmen, mit denen er zum Teil große Erfolge feierte. Erste Schritte Der Weg zum Film schien Kurt Hoffmann vorbestimmt zu sein, denn er kam am 12.11.1910 in Freiburg als Sohn des damals berühmten Kameramannes Carl Hoffmann zur Welt. Nach dem Abitur öffnete ihm sein Vater das Tor zum Filmatelier und vermittelte ihm ein Regie-Volontariat. 1931 drehte Erik Charell seine Operette "Der Kongress tanzt": Kurt Hoffmann durfte bei den Dreharbeiten zu diesem Publikumserfolg als dritter Regieassistent volontieren. Der Weg in die Filmwelt war nun eingeschlagen und sollte dem angehenden Regisseur noch viele Erfolge und zahlreiche Auszeichnungen bescheren. Regieassistenzen und das Debüt Nach mehreren Regieassistenzen, während deren er das Handwerk unter anderem bei Robert Siodmak oder auch Reinhold Schünzel erlernte, folgte nun 1939 das Debüt als selbstständiger Regisseur: Kurt Hoffmann inszenierte seinen ersten Kinofilm "Paradies der Junggesellen" mit Heinz Rühmann in der Hauptrolle. Und die Zusammenarbeit mit dem damals gefragten Schauspieler sollte noch weitere Früchte tragen: insgesamt drehten sie sieben Filme zusammen. Dies waren unter anderem solche erfolgreichen Filme wie "Quax, der Bruchpilot" (1941) oder auch "Ich vertraue Dir meine Frau an" (1943). Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg wurde Kurt Hoffman 1946 aus amerikanischer Kriegsgefangenschaft entlassen und konnte schließlich auf den Regiestuhl zurück kehren. Sein erster Nachkriegsfilm kam im Februar 1949 in die Kinos. Es war das Drama "Das verlorene Gesicht" mit Marianne Hoppe in der Hauptrolle, die Verfilmung des authentischen Falls eines verwirrten Mädchens in Stuttgart. Nach zwei Krimis, die Kurt Hoffmann 1950 drehte, kehrte der Regisseur zu seinem eigentlichen Fach zurück: dem der leichten Muse. Und hier sollte er wieder Erfolge feiern und dabei auch eine Schauspielerin entdecken, mit der er zahlreiche Publikumshits drehte. Eine Erfolgsgeschichte Mit der Komödie "Fanfaren der Liebe" nach der gleichnamigen Geschichte von Robert Thoeren und Michael Logan landete Kurt Hofmann 1951 einen großen Kinoerfolg, den auch später Billy Wilder mit seiner Version "Manche mögen’s heiß" wiederholte. Ein Jahr später drehte Kurt Hoffmann die Krimikomödie "Klettermaxe" und holte für die weibliche Hauptrolle Liselotte Pulver aus der Schweiz vor die Kamera. Und es sollte eine schicksalhafte Begegnung werden, den es begann mit ihr eine Zusammenarbeit, die zahlreiche Kassenschlager hervorbrachte. Darunter waren solche Filme wie „Ich denke oft an Piroschka“, die "Spessart-Trilogie" oder "Heute heiratet mein Mann", zehn an der Zahl, allesamt Publikumslieblinge, meistens aus der Sparte "leichte Kost". Doch Kurt Hoffmann befasste sich auch mit ernsteren Stoffen. So verfilmte er unter anderem 1957 die "Bekenntnisse des Hochstaplers Felix Krull" von Thomas Mann – der Film wurde unter anderem mit dem Golden Globe ausgezeichnet - oder auch 1965 den Roman von Moscheh Ya’akov Ben-Gavriel "Das Haus in der Karpfengasse", eine Geschichte der Bewohner eines Mietshauses im faschistisch besetzten Prag. Dieser Film wurde 1965 mit dem Deutschen Filmpreis prämiert. Doch es waren nicht die einzigen Ehrungen, die Kurt Hofmann zuteil wurden. So wurde er unter anderem mit dem Filmband in Gold oder auch dem Großen Bundesverdienstkreuz geehrt. Nach seinem Rückzug aus der Regietätigkeit 1976 starb Kurt Hofmann am 25.6.01 in München. Im September 1968 sprach DW-Redakteur Rolf Wiest mit Kurt Hoffmann über seine Arbeit. Autor: Andreas Zemke Redaktion: Diana Redlich
As the publisher of the 24-issue fanzine Lonny Jr., Paul McComas started writing about monsters before he was even a teenager, and he's still writing about them now. He co-wrote (with Greg Starrett) the short novel Fit for a Frankenstein as a tribute to all things Universal monsters with a particularly fond look at Bela Lugosi's portrayal of Ygor and the Frankenstein Monster as portrayed by Lon Chaney, Jr. Paul and Derek talk about the genesis of this book as well as another role Lon Chaney, Jr., undertook - the Son of Dracula in the film of the same name (dir. Robert Siodmak). Along the way, they also talk about Jack Pierce, early goth girls, and . . . buying used books?

Mauvaise graine, La Crise est finie, Dédé, Mademoiselle Mozart, J'aime toutes les femmes... Autant dire Billy Wilder, Robert Siodmak, mais aussi René Guissart, Yvan Noé, Henri Decoin... Dans les premières années 30, la toute jeune Danielle Darrieux électrise un cinéma français chamboulé de ne plus être silencieux et prêt à quelques expériences. Un cinéma français ouvert aussi aux étrangers et en quête d'une nouvelle chair : une voix qui chanterait, un visage qui prendrait la lumière, un corps qui n'aurait pas peur de son ombre. Il sera bien temps après que vienne l'heure des mélodrames.
