THE SWIMMER (1968) We dive deep in to The Swimmer and discuss and analyze, maybe just a little bit the glorious film directed by Frank Perry, based on a screenplay by Eleanor Perry, from the 12 page short story by John Cheever. "Well-off ad man Ned Merrill (Burt Lancaster) is visiting a friend when he notices the abundance of backyard pools that populate their upscale suburb. Ned suddenly decides that he'd like to travel the eight miles back to his own home by simply swimming across every pool in town."If you're reading this I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

The late Chicago movie critic, Roger Ebert, used to refer to the "Idiot Plot," in a lousy movie where if any single character simply failed to act like an idiot, there would simply be no movie to watch. And lately that seems to describe the world, too. Is there a limit to what a dumbed-down populace will tolerate? There is certainly a common thread, however: "On the Hatred of Women"

Leaving Las Vegas (1995) is Nicolas Cage at his most raw and devastating and he delivers a performance that won him an Oscar and became one of the bleakest love stories ever put on film. Cage plays Ben Sanderson, a man who moves to Las Vegas to drink himself to death, where he meets Elisabeth Shue in a career-defining role as a sex worker who chooses to love him anyway. In this episode, Richard Lewis, MonteCristo, and Thorin break down Cage's Oscar-winning performance, Elisabeth Shue's shocking transformation, and the film's unflinching depiction of addiction, despair, and fleeting connection. They also discuss Roger Ebert's surprising praise, the film's cultural impact, and why Leaving Las Vegas still resonates nearly 30 years later.

Alisha Mughal's It Can't Rain All the Time: The Crow (ECW Press, 2025) weaves memoir with film criticism in an effort to pin down The Crow's cultural resonance. A passionate analysis of the ill-fated 1994 film starring the late Brandon Lee and its long-lasting influence on action movies, cinematic grief, and emotional masculinity Released in 1994, The Crow first drew in audiences thanks to the well-publicized tragedy that loomed over the film: lead actor Brandon Lee had died on set due to a mishandled prop gun. But it soon became clear that The Crow was more than just an accumulation of its tragic parts. The celebrated critic Roger Ebert wrote that Lee's performance was “more of a screen achievement than any of the films of his father, Bruce Lee.” In It Can't Rain All the Time, Mughal argues that The Crow has transcended Brandon Lee's death by exposing the most challenging human emotions in all their dark, dramatic, and visceral glory, so much so that it has spawned three sequels, a remake, and an intense fandom. Eric, our back-from-the-dead, grieving protagonist, shows us that there is no solution to depression or loss, there is only our own internal, messy work. By the end of the movie, we realize that Eric has presented us with a vast range of emotions and that masculinity doesn't need to be hard and impenetrable. Through her memories of seeking solace in the film during her own grieving period, Mughal brilliantly shows that, for all its gothic sadness, The Crow is, surprisingly and touchingly, a movie about redemption and hope.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Alisha Mughal, "It Can't Rain All the Time: The Crow" (ECW Press, 2025)

Alisha Mughal's It Can't Rain All the Time: The Crow (ECW Press, 2025) weaves memoir with film criticism in an effort to pin down The Crow's cultural resonance. A passionate analysis of the ill-fated 1994 film starring the late Brandon Lee and its long-lasting influence on action movies, cinematic grief, and emotional masculinity Released in 1994, The Crow first drew in audiences thanks to the well-publicized tragedy that loomed over the film: lead actor Brandon Lee had died on set due to a mishandled prop gun. But it soon became clear that The Crow was more than just an accumulation of its tragic parts. The celebrated critic Roger Ebert wrote that Lee's performance was “more of a screen achievement than any of the films of his father, Bruce Lee.” In It Can't Rain All the Time, Mughal argues that The Crow has transcended Brandon Lee's death by exposing the most challenging human emotions in all their dark, dramatic, and visceral glory, so much so that it has spawned three sequels, a remake, and an intense fandom. Eric, our back-from-the-dead, grieving protagonist, shows us that there is no solution to depression or loss, there is only our own internal, messy work. By the end of the movie, we realize that Eric has presented us with a vast range of emotions and that masculinity doesn't need to be hard and impenetrable. Through her memories of seeking solace in the film during her own grieving period, Mughal brilliantly shows that, for all its gothic sadness, The Crow is, surprisingly and touchingly, a movie about redemption and hope.  Learn more about your ad choices.

On the gloriously unhinged 130th episode of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, Bryan, Chelsea, Wade, and, making a cameo so brief it rivals Dave Matthews in Don't Mess With the Zohan, Preston, plunge headfirst into Adam Sandler's 2008 absurdist comedy of a movie. You remember Zohan, don't you? The one that critics in 2008 treated as though it had personally wronged them, like a bagel shop that ran out of lox and schmear. The plot, if you can call it that, involves Sandler as a cartoonishly invincible Israeli commando who fakes his death, defects to New York, and fulfills his true calling: cutting hair and romancing Jewish grandmothers with the sort of sensuality usually reserved for X- rated Werther's Originals commercials. It's a premise so deranged that even Roger Ebert, God bless him, recognized it as a minor work of genius while everyone else sharpened their critical pitchforks. The post Episode #130 – Don't Mess With The Zohan (2008) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

Hola Gerardo aquí en otro episodio de Simplemente Yo; La selección de esta semana es Grave of the Fireflies, es una película bélica de animación japonesa de 1988, escrita y dirigida por Isao Takahata y producida por Studio Ghibli. Está basada en el relato semiautobiográfico de 1967 de Akiyuki Nosaka.   Inicialmente considerada inadaptable, Grave of the Fireflies se basa en la novela de Nosaka, un homenaje a su hermana fallecida en tiempos de guerra. El director Takahata se enfrentó a dificultades técnicas y optó por paletas de colores más suaves para representar los desolados paisajes de la película. A pesar de su combinación con Totoro para un tono más ligero, el realismo y la profundidad emocional de la pelicula la distinguen. La crítica, incluyendo a Roger Ebert, la elogió como una profunda película antibélica. La innovadora combinación de diálogos y banda sonora crea una experiencia inmersiva, diseñada para evocar una profunda resonancia emocional y promover un mensaje de paz.   Plot: Un niño y su hermana pequeña luchan por sobrevivir en Japón durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Espero que lo disfruten ;) Información adicional del podcast: Enlace del website official de Filmic Notion Podcast: https://filmicnotionpod.com/ Enlace a nuestra página de Letterboxd: https://boxd.it/446nl

THIS WEEK: I run down the announcements made at the Arc System Work Showcase. Cat Quest 3 gets a cool free update. I give my thoughts on Andy Bogard in FATAL FURY: COTW. I also give my thoughts on whether 50 Cent is a good choice to play a Street Fighter favorite character in the upcoming movie. Then, in our FINAL STAGE, I talk about why I wish Roger Ebert were alive to play what could be the Game of the Year in Clair Obscure: Expedition 33.

Welcome! Our Beatles Series continues with the the band's second feature: Help! This is one is in living color, and features a much more absurd storyline. Roger Ebert famously said the band had four seasons. This film captures them in spring. We have some strong opinions. To pair, we enjoy some lagers and limes. #Beatles #Help #Music #60sBe sure and subscribe, and check out my full reviews of every movie we cover:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cinemavino/id1443636422https://open.spotify.com/show/3F2TZMa7gawXwY86syEZa6?si=74a4650f88cb48c7https://toddwoffordmovies.comAlso check out our cool sponsor!

EPISODE 92 -  “BORN TO BE BAD - Old Hollywood's Favorite Brats" - 6/16/25 This week, we're getting into the pint-sized punks, the tantrum-throwers, the eye-rollers, and the sharp-tongued little legends who strutted across the silver screen like they owned the studio. That's right—we're talking about our favorite bratty kids in classic movies. You know the type: too smart for their age, too bold for their britches, and way too good at stealing scenes from their adult co-stars. Whether they were lighting up the screen with sass or shutting it down with a glare, these kids were iconic—and let's be honest, a little terrifying. So buckle up, because we're about to revisit the child stars who threw shade before it was cool, and tantrums that deserved an Oscar. Let the chaos begin.
