Tựa đề chữ vàng in trên bìa sách toàn một màu đen. Chỉ cần liếc nhìn qua, giới độc giả ghiền truyện trinh thám đều nhận ra ngay bộ sưu tập « Série Noire » của nhà xuất bản Pháp Gallimard. Năm 2025 đánh dấu đúng 80 năm ngày ra đời của tủ sách nổi tiếng Série Noire, mà bạn đọc ở Pháp thường gọi nôm na là « tiểu thuyết đen ».   Tủ sách « Série Noire » ra đời vào mùa hè năm 1945, theo đề xuất của dịch giả Marcel Duhamel. Ngoài đời là bạn thân của nhà văn Jacques Prévert và thi hào Raymond Queneau, ông Duhamel đã thuyết phục nhà xuất bản Gallimard cho ra mắt một bộ sưu tập hoàn toàn mới thời hậu chiến, để giới thiệu với bạn đọc ở Pháp những tiểu thuyết trinh thám tiêu biểu của Anh-Mỹ qua việc dịch các tác giả trứ danh như Peter Cheyney, Raymond Chandler hay Don Tracy …  Mãi đến 3 năm sau (1948), theo sáng kiến của giám đốc điều hành nhà xuất bản Claude Gallimard, bộ sưu tập này mới bắt đầu phát triển mạnh, tăng số lượng bản in cũng như các tựa sách phát hành mỗi năm. Nhờ vào sự hưởng ứng của bạn đọc, tủ truyện « Série Noire » đã thành công nhanh chóng. Hơn một ngàn đầu sách được xuất bản trong 2 thập niên đầu tiên, mỗi năm sách đều bán được hơn cả triệu bản.  Thành công của thể loại văn học này lúc đầu luôn gắn liền với trào lưu phim trinh thám của Mỹ, còn được gọi là « film noir » chủ yếu nói về các vụ án và tội phạm, thế giới băng đảng và xã hội đen. Trong thời hậu chiến (1945-1952) các rạp chiếu phim Pháp chủ yếu khai thác phim trinh thám do Hollywood sản xuất từ những năm trước, nhưng vì đang có chiến tranh, khán giả Pháp chưa có dịp xem.  Kể từ năm 1953 trở đi, làng phim Pháp mới bắt đầu khai thác mạnh mẽ dòng phim này. Trả lời phỏng vấn RFI ban tiếng Pháp, nhà phê bình kiêm sử gia Alban Cerisier cho biết, ngay từ những năm 1950, tủ sách « Série Noire » đã gợi hứng cho các đạo diễn Pháp thực hiện nhiều bản phóng tác, đưa các bộ tiểu thuyết đen lên màn ảnh rộng, tạo ra một sự hợp tác chặt chẽ, vẫn còn tồn tại cho đến tận ngày nay : « Đúng vậy, đó là một mối quan hệ tuyệt vời, góp phần làm nên tên tuổi và uy tín của bộ sưu tập Série Noire. Mối quan hệ giữa tủ sách trinh thám và màn ảnh lớn đã tồn tại trong nhiều thập niên qua. Khi mới được thành lập, tủ sách này chủ yếu quảng bá các tiểu thuyết “đen” và dòng phim trinh thám theo kiểu Mỹ. Trong giai đoạn này, phải kể đến phim The Maltese Falcon (Chim ưng Malta) với Humphrey Bogart trong vai chính, This gun for hire (Kẻ giết mướn) với Alan Ladd và Veronica Lake. Những thập niên sau đó, có The Unseen (Sát thủ giấu mặt) và nhất là The Big Sleep (Giấc ngủ ngàn thu), dựa theo tiểu thuyết của nhà văn Raymond Chandler qua hai phiên bản, với Humphrey Bogart, cũng như Robert Mitchum trong vai chính.  Thời hậu chiến, làng phim Pháp chủ yếu khai thác phim Mỹ. Năm 1953 đánh dấu một cột mốc quan trọng, khi điện ảnh Pháp trở nên tự lập hơn, bắt đầu chuyển thể các bộ tiểu thuyết thành phim trinh thám. Đó là trường hợp của bộ phim "Touchez pas au grisbi" (tạm dịch Coi chừng chết … vì tiền) của đạo diễn Pháp Jacques Becker. Đây là phiên bản điện ảnh của quyển tiểu thuyết đen cùng tên của Albert Simonin. Bộ phim đánh dấu ngày trở lại của Jean Gabin sau nhiều năm vắng bóng và sự xuất hiện lần đầu tiên của Lino Ventura trên màn ảnh lớn. Trong mắt giới phê bình, "Touchez pas au grisbi” là tác phẩm khởi đầu cho trào lưu quay các bộ phim noir theo kiểu Pháp, hầu hết các tên tuổi lớn sau này đều tham gia như Jeanne Moreau, Jean-Paul Belmondo hay Alain Delon … »  Nhìn lại tủ truyện « Série Noire », trong số cả chục ngàn quyển tiểu thuyết được phát hành, đã có hơn 500 đầu sách đã được chuyển thể lên màn ảnh. Có thể nói là mỗi thập niên đều có những bộ phim ăn khách, phóng tác từ tiểu thuyết trinh thám. Theo sử gia Alban Cerisier, những thập niên sau 1950, đã cho ra đời nhiều tác phẩm quan trọng của những tên tuổi hàng đầu trong làng điện ảnh :  « Kể từ sau những năm 1950, dòng phim trinh thám hình sự đã có một số thay đổi về mặt đề tài để phán ánh những biến chuyển xã hội, nội dung phim cũng mang nhiều tính thời sự hơn. Một trong những gương mặt quan trọng trong giai đoạn này chính là ngôi sao màn bạc Pháp Alain Delon. Ông quan tâm nhiều đến thể loại hình sự cũng như dòng phim đen. Trong vai trò của một nhà sản xuất (nhiều hơn là diễn viên), Alain Delon đã giúp phổ biến thêm nhiều quyển tiểu thuyết qua phim ảnh. Trong giai đoạn này có thể nhắc đến “Mort d'un pourri” (Cái chết của một kẻ hám lợi), tiểu thuyết của Raf Vallet từng được Georges Lautner chuyển thể thành phim trinh thám với Alain Delon trong vai chính.  Thật ra, kể từ những năm 1965 trở đi, dòng phim noir không còn đơn thuần nói về thế giới của những kẻ lừa đảo, những tên côn đồ đâm thuê chém mướn … Những hình tượng ấy dần dần những chỗ lại cho những nhân vật phức tạp hơn về mặt tâm lý, qua tài viết kịch bản và dựng phim của làn sóng đạo diễn với phong cách mới như Truffaut, Godard, hay Melville. Đạo diễn François Truffaut đã tặng cho Jeanne Moreau một vai diễn để đời khi chuyển thể tiểu thuyết “The Bride wore black” (Áo tang ngày cưới) của William Irish, kể lại kế hoạch trả thù của một cô dâu, sau khi chứng kiến cảnh chồng mình bị sát hại ngay trong đám cưới.  Đạo diễn Melville tặng cho Jean Paul Belmondo một vai diễn xuất sắc trong phim "Le Doulos". Trong tiếng lóng, từ này hiểu theo nghĩa đen là cái mũ phớt, còn hiểu theo nghĩa bóng là kẻ chỉ điểm. Sự xuất hiện của Melville, Lautner, hay Truffaut (rất ngưỡng mộ đạo diễn Hitchcock) đã mang đến một luồng sinh khí mới cho thể loại phim trình thám, khi họ phản ánh các chủ đề mang tính thời sự xã hội, đi sâu hơn vào các đề tài tham nhũng, khi mọi giới, nhất là những người có quyền, càng dễ bị đồng tiền chi phối ».  Sau các đề tài chính trị xã hội, tủ truyện Série Noire cũng từng gặt hái khá nhiều thành công khi khai thác mạch truyện gián điệp. Trong một thời gian dài, nhà xuất bản Gallimard được quyền khai thác tủ sách James Bond (sau này mới đến phiên nhà xuất bản Robert Laffon), có lẽ cũng vì thế nhiều đầu sách của điệp viên 007 đã được đăng trong bộ sưu tập tiểu thuyết đen Série Noire. Nhà phê bình Alvan Cerisier giải thích về các trào lưu làm phim : « Các tác giả cũng như dịch giả của tủ truyện Série Noire sống với thời đại của họ. Dĩ nhiên là bộ truyện của Ian Fleming đã có nhiều bản phóng tác sang tiếng Pháp. Về mặt phiên bản điện ảnh, có hai tựa phim James Bond mà các bạn đọc tiếng Pháp tìm thấy trong tủ sách Série Noire. Đó là bộ phim « Diamonds are forever » (Điệp vụ kim cương) với Sean Connery, và sau đó là « Moonraker » (Căn cứ không gian) với Roger Moore. Có thể nói là thành công của James Bond đánh dấu thời kỳ huy hoàng của tiểu thuyết cũng như phim gián điệp. Ngoài ra, phim ảnh có tác động tích cực trong việc phổ biến sách truyện. Tính trung bình, một quyển tiểu thuyết trinh thám được xem là rất ăn khách khi bán được khoảng 100.000 bản. Đến khi được chuyển thể lên màn ảnh lớn, bộ phim có khả năng thu hút hàng triệu lượt người xem và trong số này sẽ có nhiều khán giả tìm đọc tiểu thuyết gốc. Mối quan hệ chặt chẽ ấy vẫn tồn tại cho đến ngày nay.  Việc chuyển thể sách thành kịch bản phim, nhiều hay ít, là tùy theo nhu cầu, chứ chưa bao giờ dừng lại. Chẳng hạn như phim « Zulu » với Orlando Bloom và Forest Whitaker trong vai chính, dựa theo tiểu thuyết của Caryl Férey. Đạo diễn Guillermo del Toro từng thử sức với phim trinh thám khi chuyển thể lên màn ảnh quyển tiểu thuyết đen « Nightmare Alley » (Con hẻm ác mộng) với Bradley Cooper trong vai chính. Ngoài ra, còn phải kể đến dòng truyện trinh thám đến từ vùng đất lạnh như trường hợp của nhà văn người Na Uy JoNesbo từng thành công với « The Snowman » (Sát nhân Người tuyết) với Michael Fassbender. Trong số các nhân vật nổi tiếng thích đọc Série Noire tại Pháp, có các nhà văn Jacques Prévert, Jean Giono, hay nghệ sĩ điêu khắc Giacometti. Có thể nói là chừng nào vẫn còn nhiều bạn đọc ghiền tiểu thuyết trinh thám, thì dòng phim hồi hộp hình sự vẫn còn nhiều kịch bản hay để dựng thành phim chiếu rạp cũng như phim truyền hình ».

Jaume Segalés y su equipo hablan de "Javier de Juan. En el corazón de la ciudad""Los empeños de una casa" Teatros del Canal pone el broche final a su temporada teatral, a la programación de Canal Hispanidad y a su ciclo dedicado al Siglo de Oro con un gran estreno en España: "Los empeños de una casa" de Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz. La Compañía Nacional de Teatro de México trae a Madrid la primera comedia de enredos amorosos escrita por la autora aurisecular de este país, nacida en el siglo XVII, Juana Inés de Asbaje Ramírez de Santillana, más conocida como Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz. Toda una fiesta barroca literaria que fue escrita para celebrar el nacimiento del primogénito de la Virreina de Nueva España, María Luisa Manrique de Lara y Gonzaga, con quien (según asegura la historiografía) la monja literata tenía una relación amorosa. De hecho, gracias a la virreina conocemos las obras de Sor Juana, ya que fue ella quien impulsó su publicación. Este fin de semana, podemos ver "Los empeños de una casa" (con un amplio elenco y música y coros en vivo), en la Sala Roja de los Teatros del Canal, hoy viernes y mañana sábado a las 20:00; y el domingo a las 18:30.

Javier de Juan, arquitecto de formación, ha dedicado su carrera a integrar el arte en la sociedad civil, utilizando medios de comunicación masiva y técnicas de ilustración y diseño gráfico. Su obra es reconocida tanto en grandes murales, como los realizados para los aeropuertos de Barajas y La Palma, como en su colaboración con medios destacados como El País, El Mundo y ABC. En los años 80, fundó la editorial Port Said para promover a artistas españoles a nivel internacional y fue un impulsor clave de la revista cultural Madriz, uno de los emblemas de la Movida madrileña.Sección de cine clásico "Es sesión continua" Antolín de la Torre hoy nos habla sobre "Cara de ángel" (Angel Face).

Physical Media weeks don't get much more packed this week and there is a lot to get to with Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski. Titles include a trio of youth tales involving the film that took back cheerleading, a slasher film getting a new updating soon and the infamous creation of the Brat Pack. There's a Hammer mystery, sci-fi and Peter Cushing as Doctor Who. Peter talks about a somewhat forgotten film noir with Robert Mitchum as well as a musical version of The Philadelphia Story. They look back with a bit of fondness for an innocuous spoof of singing cowboy movies plus the inaugural releases of Dreamworks. All of this is wrapped in a pair of upgrades for two films that played their Chicago Critics Film Festival including the Alex Proyas sci-fi film Roger Ebert called the best film of 1998 and the William Friedkin masterpiece lost for many years but is now immortalized in the Criterion Collection.3:45 - Criterion (Sorcerer (4K), Thirty Two Short Films About Glenn Gould (4K))25:39 - Warner Archive (His Kind of Woman, High Society (4K))40:23 - WB (Lethal Weapon (4K Steelbook))46:59 - Kino (Rustlers' Rhapsody, The Peacemaker (4K), Mousehunt (4K), Road Trip (4K))1:20:02 - Sony (St. Elmo's Fire (4K), I Know What You Did Last Summer (4K Steelbook))1:40:18 - Shout Factory (Bring It On (4K))1:48:11 - Severin (Jack the Ripper 4K, Unknown World (4K), Total Extermination: The Peter Cushing Doctor Who Collection)2:03:19 - Arrow (Dark City (4K))2:14:17 – New Theatrical Titles On Blu-ray (The Monkey (4K), Novocaine (4K), A Minecraft Movie, Snow White (4K), Eephus)2:20:51 - New Blu-ray AnnouncementsCLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCASTBe sure to check outChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik's Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.

1947's Crossfire, directed by Edward Dmytryk, is based on the novel The Brick Foxhole by Richard Brooks.  In Brooks' novel, a gay man is murdered by a soldier on leave but the film had to adhere to a Hays Code which didn't allow for depictions of homosexuality so anti-Jewish sentiment became the reason for the killing.  Ironically, it was the film's theme of anti-semitism that put it's makers in the crosshairs of Senator Joseph McCarthy's anti-communist HUAC hearings.  It's director and writer John Paxton ended in prison for their views.  The film stars the Robert dream team of Robert Ryan, Robert Young and Robert Mitchum.

I get it.  You like Paul Sorvino.  I like Paul Sorvino.  We all like Paul Sorvino.  But he is a Hall of Famer?  Or is he just the guy from Goodfellas?  He had a long, career.  Some great, some not.  Now it's time to comb through that resume and determine if he belongs in the Hall!  Along the way, we'll chat about some other fun stuff like Robert Mitchum's drunken antics and the time I saw Jonathan Schaech jogging.  I also, in real time, forget who directed The Shining.  What the hell, Fanacek?

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

“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.

Welcome back to Film Haven Reviews!!! This week we are finishing up our "70's Neo-Noir" theme with the Robert Mitchum vehicle, Farwell, My Lovely (1975)I rather enjoyed this mostly by the books noir tale. It paid homage to many of the classics of the 40's while also providing enough quality on its own to make it worth your time! I gave this film an 8/10 for its great direction, set design, and terrific performances, espically from Mithcum. For my full written review feel free to follow my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/film_haven_reviews/You can also go to find the video on my NEW youtube page: https://www.youtube.com/@filmhavenreviews

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.

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.

When George V. Higgins's first novel, The Friends of Eddie Coyle, was published in 1970, it was widely acclaimed as an insider's look at Boston's criminal underbelly. Three years later, Peter Yates directed Robert Mitchum in one of his best performances as the mid-level gunrunner who is tempted to help “uncle” by turning in his associates to the cops. Join Mike and Dan as they talk about how Robert Mitchum eating pie is better than a thousand bank robberies and how the dialogue for which Higgins is so rightly praised is like the kind of negotiations we make all the time at work, regardless of what we're selling.

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?

GGACP bids a fond farewell to late Broadway, TV and film actor Tony Roberts with this ENCORE of an interview from 2017. In this episode, Tony stops by the studio to weigh in on a wide range of topics, including the intensity of Al Pacino, the minimalism of Robert Mitchum, the eccentricities of Jerome Robbins and the professionalism of Sidney Lumet. Also: Tony runs lines with Edward G. Robinson, takes flight with Mary Poppins, plays the ponies with Mickey Rooney and treads the boards with Abe Vigoda. PLUS: Everett Sloane! “Amityville 3-D”!

Well, get ready to unwrap an early present from Steve and Nan as they share their favorite lesser-known holiday films. And along the way, they discuss everything from Clarence the Angel, French nuns, boxing nuns, ROBERT MITCHUM's drug bust, and millionaires tossing money out of their Park Avenue apartment window. Don't miss this holiday spectacular!  SHOW NOTES:  Movies Mentioned: I'll Be Seeing You (1944) Beyond Tomorrow aka Beyond Christmas (1940) Holiday Affair (1949) Come to the Stable (1949) The House Without a Christmas Tree (1972) The Bishop's Wife (1947) Sources: Christmas in The Movies (2023), by Jeremy Arnold Christmas In Classic Films (2022), by Jacqueline T.

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. You might like 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. For now let's discuss HOLIDAY AFFAIR!

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.

The Deadly Trout Creek Land SquabbleAd-Free Safe House EditionEpisode 281 is dedicated to listener and patron Kimberlee Anderson, who shares a hometown with the defendants in this case. Although first reports said that Mrs. Alice Harris was a widow, it turns out she was a divorcee whose ex-husband was of THE Harris family of Harrisville, Utah. This story seems like it could've been a classic John Ford western, a land dispute in the Utah desert that turns deadly.

Josh and Drusilla recorded this the day before the election. Yikes! From wiki: “The Night of the Hunter is a 1955 American film noir thriller directed by Charles Laughton and starring Robert Mitchum, Shelley Winters and Lillian Gish. The screenplay by James Agee was based on the 1953 novel of the same name by Davis Grubb. The plot involves a serial killer (Mitchum) who poses as a preacher and pursues two children in an attempt to get his hands on $10,000 of stolen cash hidden by their late father.”Also discussed: Conclave (2024), 12 Angry Men, dad movies, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Anora, Scream (2022), Promising Young Woman, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Lilian Gish, busy bodies of cinema, The Dark Crystal, Cape Fear, King of the Hill, Don Bluth kids, Over the Garden Wall, NEXT WEEK: Green Room (2015)Follow them across the internet:Bloodhaus: https://www.bloodhauspod.com/https://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/ Drusilla Adeline:https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/https://letterboxd.com/sisterhyde/ Joshua Conkelhttps://www.joshuaconkel.com/https://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/https://letterboxd.com/JoshuaConkel/

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? Have a listen to find out. In this ep, the Margos discuss:The creepy origin story of the book.Charles Laughton's excellent direction and why he never helmed a picture again. The differences between the novel and the 1955 film. The Movie Cast: Robert Mitchum (Harry Powell,) Shelley Winters (Willa Harper,) Lillian Gish (Rachel Cooper,) Billy Chapin (John Harper,) Sally Jane Bruce (Pearl Harper,) James Gleason (Uncle “Birdie” Steptoe,) Evelyn Varden (Icey Spoon,) Don Beddoe (Walt Spoon,) Peter Graves (Ben Harper,) Gloria Castillo (Ruby,) and Paul Bryar as Bart the Hangman. Clips used:“Harry Speaks to the Lord”The Night of the Hunter (1955 trailer)“John Promises His Dad”“Love and Hate”“He Ain't My Dad” “Leaning”The Night of the Hunter soundtrack by Walter SchumannBook Vs.

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.
