A dispatch of wonderful garage sleaze from France made by a Boogie Chitz supergroup consisting of The Limiñanas, loose-of-mind Anton from Jonestown and Emmanuelle Seigner - the GILF wife of creepo director Roman Polanski.

On a lu partout que Vanessa Paradis et Johnny Depp s'étaient rencontrés par hasard. La formule est jolie mais elle n'est pas exacte. L'histoire commence un soir à New York, dans une boîte de nuit où Vanessa accompagne son compagnon de l'époque, Lenny Kravitz. J'emploie le mot « accompagner » à dessein, car ces soirées-là ne sont jamais vraiment les siennes. Où qu'ils aillent, leur arrivée, ou plutôt celle de Lenny, déclenche une foule de regards, de mains tendues, de prénoms répétés à voix haute. Lenny présente, serre des mains, sourit, et puis le même scénario se répète sans cesse. Et là, au milieu de cette mécanique bien huilée, brusquement, une poignée de main différente. Une décharge. Vanessa lève les yeux et reconnaît Johnny Depp, verre dans la main gauche, Kate Moss accrochée à son bras. La foudre lui tombe dessus. Lui, en revanche, ne semble même pas l'avoir vue.Depuis Edward aux mains d'argent, Johnny Depp est devenu, pour beaucoup, l'homme le plus désirable de la planète. Vanessa n'est pas différente des autres. Durant les mois qui suivent, elle reste sur ce moment suspendu, elle en parle à ses amies. Mais rêver ne suffit pas. Vanessa est à nouveau célibataire, Johnny ne l'est pas. Et l'histoire pourrait s'arrêter là.Sauf que deux ans plus tard, elle apprend la séparation de Johnny Depp et Kate Moss. Et là, quelque chose s'enclenche. Vanessa aime les contes de fées, c'est sûr, mais elle sait aussi que les princesses trop passives finissent seules. Si elle ne s'aide pas elle-même, le ciel ne fera rien pour elle. Et le temps presse : un homme comme Johnny Depp ne reste jamais longtemps célibataire.Elle tente donc tout ce qui est possible. Elle se présente au casting du prochain film de Roman Polanski, prête à accepter un rôle secondaire, n'importe lequel, simplement pour être sur le même plateau que lui. Elle n'est pas retenue. Alors elle se fait inviter à une soirée très fermée où Johnny doit être présent. Mais il annule à la dernière minute.Heureusement, le cinéma est un monde en mouvement. Des tournages amènent en effet tout ce petit monde à Paris. Il y aura bien une occasion. Une occasion qui arrive, presque par surprise : Vanessa se retrouve en effet invitée à un dîner donné par Johnny Depp pour quelques amis. Mais qui l'a mise sur la liste ? Mystère. Ils se sont échangé trois mots, deux ans plus tôt, et pourtant elle est là.Quand Johnny entre dans la salle, il ne voit d'abord qu'un dos, à quelques mètres de lui, découvert par un décolleté vertigineux. Puis la femme se retourne, l'aperçoit, c'est Vanessa Paradis qui s'avance vers lui sans hésiter. Ce que Vanessa ignore encore, c'est que Johnny l'avait bien remarquée ce fameux soir à New York. Simplement, il n'avait jamais imaginé qu'elle ait été, elle aussi, frappée par le même coup de foudre. Johnny est un timide maladif, il déteste les mondanités, ne sait jamais où se poser, encore moins comment demander à quelqu'un de s'asseoir près de lui. Heureusement, d'autres ont compris. On les installe côte à côte.Et pour la première fois, Vanessa parle longuement avec un homme qui ne la regarde ni comme une icône, ni comme un trophée, elle est simplement elle-même. Même si l'on connaît la suite, il faut bien l'admettre : cette histoire-là est belle.

HORROR WITH SIR. STURDY EP 579: REPULSION – WHEN THE WALLS START TO BREATHE BACK  

Mi 26.11. 18:00 Gespräch in Englisch, im Anschluss an THE THIRD MAN (Carol Reed, GB 1949) Als Script Supervisor:in ist man das Gedächtnis eines jeden Filmdrehs und nicht zuletzt dafür verantwortlich, dass die Schnittkontinuität gewahrt und die gedrehten Szenen sowie allfällige Änderungen gegenüber dem Drehbuch akribisch festgehalten werden.

Durante décadas, Hugh Hefner fue vendido como el símbolo de la liberación sexual. Pero detrás de las fiestas de la Mansión Playboy se ocultaba una oscura red de abuso, drogas, chantaje y cámaras ocultas. En este episodio explosivo descubrimos cómo el fundador de Playboy tenía cuentas en Castle Bank, una entidad controlada por la CIA para financiar operaciones secretas con dinero del narcotráfico. Exploramos las conexiones entre la Mansión y depredadores como Bill Cosby y Roman Polanski, las muertes sospechosas que la rodearon, y cómo el escándalo Iran-Contra demuestra que el Estado usó drogas para financiar guerras clandestinas. ¿Fue Playboy una pieza del aparato de inteligencia estadounidense? ¿O simplemente un nido de monstruos protegidos por el poder? Prepárate para descubrir que la verdad es más extraña —y más perturbadora— que cualquier teoría conspirativa. Y además... Ciencia de Vanguardia, con Pablo Fuente.

À l'été de 1969, des meurtres d'une rare violence sont commis dans la région de Los Angeles (Californie). Parmi les victimes se trouve l'actrice Sharon Tate, épouse du réalisateur et metteur en scène Roman Polanski. La femme était enceinte de 8 1/2 mois, mais cela n'a clairement pas ému les assassins. Le ou les auteurs de ces atrocités ont laissé sur place des graffitis écrits avec le sang des victimes : Porc, Mort aux cochons, Lève-toi, Guerre et He(a)lter Skelter, le titre d'une pièce phare de l'album blanc (White Album) des Beatles. Au fil des semaines, les autorités tournent leur attention vers un petit groupe de hippies qui vivent dans le désert. Ils se font appeler «La Famille Manson», du nom de leur chef et gourou : Charles Manson. Les enquêteurs apprennent qu'entre deux buvards de LSD, Manson ― qui se présente comme la réincarnation du Christ ― imagine une guerre raciale qui fera de lui le nouveau maître du monde ; une guerre raciale qu'il a baptisée Helter Skelter, en hommage au célèbre quatuor britannique.

The penultimate episode in our Rise of A24 season features two psychological free falls, Denis Villeneuve's Enemy (2014) and the infamous Roman Polanski's The Tenant (1976)Special Guest: Hollywood Insider and great friend of the show, RyanSlipping identity is one of the better themes for existential horror, but its narrative power can easily list the story until it capsizes. There is perhaps nothing scarier than losing one's self. It is a fear so extreme and palpable, it is not spoke of often, which reflects on how on edge we have become in the age of social media. Our self identities have never been more slippery than right now, as our self image has become a kaleidoscope of algorithms, vibes, propaganda, and postmodern chicanery. Denis Villeneuve's Enemy (2014) seems almost out of time despite being written and shot during the hyper acceleration of social media. The movie starts with a quote "Chaos is order yet undeciphered." Yet, the entire film works to obfuscate the actual connection between the doppelgangers at the center of it story. The ending is notoriously opaque as well. All of this adds up to a classic A24 style film. A film that offers a lot of vibes and questions, but doesn't dare write a thesis statement that is decipreable. Roman Polanski's The Tenant (1976) comes from a different world than our own. Pre-internet and personal computer, The Tenant harkens back to Kafkaesque institutional paranoia and identity dissolution more commonly seen in Scandinavian film. Here the maleficent forces are clear and all around us. Small acts of coercion via social compliance begin to rewrite Trelkovsky's self-identity until he himself finally erases the last mark of his former self. It is easy to see how The Tenant has had a large influence beyond its limited social cachet. While uneven and unkempt, Polanski confidently and courageously explores his own sense of faltering self.

Welcome to The Reel Schmooze with ToI film reviewer Jordan Hoffman and host Amanda Borschel-Dan, where we bring you all the entertainment news and film reviews a Jew can use. This week, we hear reviews of two films: the 2019 "An Officer and a Spy," a film by controversial director Roman Polanski on the Dreyfus Affair, which is now playing in the United States, and the shattering documentary, "The Voice of Hind Rajab." But the pair opens the program by honoring director-actor Rob Reiner, who was slain over the weekend alongside his wife, Michele. We learn about his early acting work and hear about many of his groundbreaking films that have become enduring classics. Hoffman tells us about Polanski's cinematic childhood and early adult life -- he barely survived the Holocaust and his wife, Sharon Tate, was murdered by the Manson family. We then hear how Polanski skipped out on the sentencing after pleading guilty to engaging in unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor, a 13-year-old girl he was photographing for Vogue, and has lived outside of the US ever since, but still working consistently. And after all that, we learn about the merits of the film, "An Officer and a Spy." The final movie discussed is potentially even more controversial to several listeners, "The Voice of Hind Rajab." The film portrays the attempts of the Ramallah-based Red Crescent to send an ambulance to save the six-year-old Hind, who is trapped in a war zone in northern Gaza in a car with her family, who are all dead. Using the actual soundtrack from the terrified girl's phone calls for help, the film is a carefully crafted re-enactment of the impending tragedy. Hear which film(s) got a seal of approval on this week's The Reel Schmooze.

From bomb sites in postwar Birmingham to the centre of British stage and screen, Martin Shaw's life has been shaped by curiosity, kindness and a refusal to play the part he was expected to play.In this episode of Full Disclosure, James O'Brien sits down with one of Britain's most enduring actors to trace the journey behind the performances. Shaw reflects on growing up with parents marked by war and frustration, discovering storytelling at school, and the teachers who unlocked a sense of freedom, confidence and purpose. He talks about leaving security behind for drama school, confronting imposter syndrome, and the moment he realised that great acting is not about showing off but about listening.The conversation moves through a remarkable career. From early theatre work and transformative mentors, to working with Roman Polanski on Macbeth, sharing kitchens with Anthony Hopkins, and navigating the highs and costs of fame after The Professionals. Shaw speaks candidly about alcohol, masculinity, spiritual searching and the quiet anger that can linger beneath success. He also explains why kindness on set matters to him, how one encounter with a fan reframed his view of his own work, and why the stage has always remained his creative home.

Le journaliste français Patrick Chauvel est dans L'atelier des médias pour un grand entretien. De la guerre du Vietnam à celle menée actuellement par la Russie en Ukraine, il a couvert des dizaines de conflits. Avec Steven Jambot, il revient sur son parcours, l'évolution du métier de reporter de guerre, l'archivage de ses photos au Mémorial de Caen et sa démarche auprès de tous les publics pour raconter la guerre et ses effets. Patrick Chauvel, 76 ans, aime rappeler qu'il est issu d'une famille de « conteurs ». Il a très tôt choisi la voie du reportage, pour vivre les récits qui avaient bercé son enfance. Après un passage formateur à France-Soir, où il a notamment travaillé pour la rubrique Les potins de la commère, une altercation avec Roman Polanski lui a valu d'être renvoyé. Le patron du quotidien, Pierre Lazareff, lui offrit cependant l'argent nécessaire pour s'envoler vers le Vietnam où il arrive juste avant l'offensive du Têt, en 1968. Face au scepticisme de son père qui lui prédisait des difficultés financières et lui rappelait que « la reconnaissance c'est pour les photographes morts », Patrick Chauvel était arrivé à Saïgon muni d'un aller simple.  L'évolution du métier et la peur de rater l'histoire Travaillant en argentique avec peu de pellicules, Chauvel a développé une précision extrême, loin de la « gâchette facile » du numérique actuel. L'envoi des films vers Paris était une épreuve logistique, nécessitant parfois de confier les précieux paquets à des passagers d'avion ou même d'utiliser un cheval pour atteindre un point de rapatriement (comme il l'a fait au Salvador). Ce reporter tout terrain a été blessé à de multiples reprises, des cicatrices pour autant d'« incidents de parcours ». Il cite d'ailleurs une phrase de Napoléon : « Se faire blesser ne prouve qu'une chose, c'est qu'on est maladroit ». Son angoisse principale n'est pas la blessure physique, mais de rater l'histoire en étant immobilisé, car « ​​​l'histoire qui est importante continue ». Au Vietnam, sa naïveté sur la guerre et ses enjeux s'est brisée lors d'une discussion avec un prisonnier nord-vietnamien francophone, qui lui a exposé l'idéologie de « l'ennemi ».  Le rôle de « sentinelle » face au déni Pour Patrick Chauvel, son métier a une dimension essentielle de transmission, car il travaille pour la « mémoire collective » et les livres d'histoire. Son cheval de bataille est de forcer le public à savoir, d'où son titre de « rapporteur de guerre », qu'il a donné à un de ses livres et un documentaire. Concernant les œillères du grand public, il est catégorique : « On ne savait pas, c'est pas recevable du tout. Si vous voulez pas savoir, c'est que vous n'avez pas envie de savoir ». Il considère que les journalistes agissent comme des sentinelles, alertant sur les dangers environnants. Les conflits récents, notamment la guerre menée en Ukraine par la Russie de Vladimir Poutine, ont bouleversé l'approche des terrains où il a tant travaillé. En Ukraine se mélangent les combats de tranchées – rappelant la Première Guerre mondiale – et la « guerre des étoiles » menée par les drones. Ces derniers sont désormais responsables de 80 % des pertes sur le front, rappelle Patrick Chauvel, rendant l'accès aux premières lignes extrêmement difficile et dangereux, notamment pour les médias et leurs fixeurs. La transmission aux nouvelles générations Patrick Chauvel a fait don de son fonds gigantesque (480 000 photos, 1 000 heures de films) au Mémorial de Caen pour assurer la pérennité de son œuvre. Il voit dans cette transmission un rôle essentiel auprès des jeunes, notamment à travers des conférences dans les écoles, collèges et prisons. Le journaliste, décoré de la Légion d'honneur en 2025, appelle la jeune génération à ne pas tenir la paix pour acquise. « L'élément naturel de l'homme, c'est la guerre, c'est pas la paix. La paix, c'est un travail, c'est une éducation ». À ce titre, Patrick Chauvel a été sollicité par la Ligue de l'enseignement pour un projet itinérant intitulé « Décrypter la guerre, penser la paix », qui cherche encore des partenaires. Il résume ainsi son rôle et celui de ses confrères : « Les photos qui vont être dans les livres d'histoire sont les nôtres. Nos récits sont dans les livres d'histoire. Et donc il faut absolument qu'on transmette ça. On peut pas garder ça pour nous. » Son message aux aspirants reporters est de ne pas attendre d'être financés, mais d'aller sur le terrain et de s'y installer en optant pour un pseudonyme afin d'être moins exposés.

This episode explores An Officer and a Spy (J'accuse in French), Roman Polanski's 2019 film about the Dreyfus Affair in France. The Dreyfus Affair is one of most significant events in late 19th/early 20th century, an event whose implications reverberated for decades in France and around the world. The Dreyfus Affair centered around the military trial of Captain Alfred Dreyfus on charges of treason. Wrongly convicted based on secret evidence and false information, Dreyfus's case would become a cause célèbres and synonymous with a miscarriage of justice. It also exposed and exacerbated tensions within French society while underscoring deep and pervasive levels of antisemitism.  Based on Robert Harris's 2013 novel of the same name, An Officer and a Spy focuses on the role of George Picquart, the military officer who helps uncover the truth behind Dreyfus's wrongful conviction, and Picquart's complex relationship with Dreyfus himself. Hewing closely to historical fact, the film highlights critical issues around law, truth, and justice, at the heart of the Dreyfus affair and why it remains so relevant today. Timestamps:0:00     Introduction 3:02      An overview of the Dreyfus case and key players 5:54.     Georges Picquart 13:14.    The struggle to overturn Dreyfus's conviction 17:54     Tensions over the Dreyfus affair and a lack of accountability 20:48    The “evidence” in the Dreyfus case 25:38     How the Dreyfus affair divided French society 30:16     Other films about the Dreyfus affair 33:54     The controversy around Roman Polanski as director 39:21      Legacies of the Dreyfus affair 45:13      The role of Colonel Henry Further reading: Begley, Louis, Why the Dreyfus Affair Matters (2009) Bredin, Jean‑Denis, The Affair: The Case of Alfred Dreyfus (1986) Doherty, Thomas, “From Méliès to Polanski: The Dreyfus Affair on Film,” Cineaste (2020) Harris, Robert, An Officer and a Spy (2013) Read, Piers Paul, The Dreyfus Affair: The Scandal That Tore France in Two (2013) Samuels, Maurice, Alfred Dreyfus: The Man at the Center of the Affair (2024) Zola, Émile, The Dreyfus Affair: J'Accuse and Other Writings (1998)  Law on Film is created and produced by Jonathan Hafetz.

This week we grapple with the problematics of Chinatown (1974), arguably one of the greatest neo-noirs, with a fraught and complicated history thanks to its director, Roman Polanski. Starring Jack Nicholson and Faye Dunaway, Chinatown represents the bleakness of noir amid the sunniness of LA, with a hefty dose of political and sexual corruption. Oof. TW for discussions of sexual assault and incest. Next week, we conclude Noirvember with a far happier entry: Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

This week, the boys head back to Roman Polanski-ville for the third time to discuss the pivotal 1965 film “Repulsion”. This “dangerous” film is Polanski's first English-language movie, shot in London during the peak of the French New Wave (Polanski is a Polish-French filmmaker). “Repulsion” offers indie-film groundedness, a gritty reality, noir-inspired neorealism, and an upheaval of social values of the time- sexual liberation, classism, irony, and iconoclasm. Also, we all had different levels of enjoyment, which led to one of our finest broad conversations!

Roman Polanski not only directed Rosemary's Baby, but he also adapted the screenplay from the Ira Levin novel of the same name.  Most consider this film to be one of the greatest Horror classics ever made.  Paramount Executive Robert Evans had a vision to produce Rosemary's Baby and played a big part in putting it all together by casting the right actors.  The Actors Room delves into what it took to make this wonderful and creepy film.

For this bonus episode of the Alternate Ending podcast, Tim is once again joined by film scholar Will Quade, author of the recent article "We Accuse: Antisemitism and Historical Remembrance in the Films of the Dreyfus Affair" published in The International Journal of the Image. They're here to discuss the remarkable path to distribution of the controversial 2019 Roman Polanski film An Officer and a Spy, which has only just received a North American release in the fall of 2025. Together, they explore questions of the conflicting politics driving the film's delayed release, the conflicting politics within the film itself, and the reasons why the film itself forces a reckoning with the complicated and unpleasant questions it raises.

Roman Polanski's Rosemary's Baby (1968) didn't just invent occult horror: it cursed Hollywood itself. A young couple moves into New York's Dakota building, only to find their new neighbors are part of an ancient Satanic conspiracy. What begins as domestic paranoia becomes a slow descent into psychological terror and a film that redefined horror forever. Richard Lewis, MonteCristo, and Thorin open the Four Play: Occult Horror Arc with the movie that birthed the genre, discussing Polanski's eerie direction, Mia Farrow's haunting performance, and how Rosemary's Baby set the stage for everything from Hereditary to Suspiria. Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with Mando and get 20% off + free shipping with promo code FOURPLAY at shopmando.com!

 *NEW!* On this episodes annotated deep dive, The Cultists present Roman Polanski's The Ninth Gate (1999).  A slow and cozy burn of paranoia through warm-lit and dusty streets, The Ninth Gate tells that classic tale of a bored and bitter book dealing mercenary who happens upon an ancient esoteric puzzle concealed in the pages of the text — a one shot, all-consuming mystery that many a mad man has tried to solve for centuries — but that Johnny Depp's Robert/Dean/Lucas Corso might happen to solve instead through sheer divine apathy. (Albeit with a heavy green-eyed stalker assist). Curiously based on only half of Arturo Pérez-Reverte's novel, The Dumas Club, (and on the B plot of the novel at that), Polanski's adaptation transforms Reverte's postmodern parable about the dangers of of looking too closely at a text, into a modernist love letter to the practice of… looking too closely at a text.  Topics Include: Comparisons to The Dumas Club and the details from the novel that help shape the more esoteric parts of the film; the book market value of all those old tomes; the abstract tradition of Grimoires; the occult golden age of Prague; fallen angels, The Grigori , and other lesser diablos; the paradox of making a modernist film out of a postmodern source, and a (somewhat brief) history of the devil, or how satan(s) became Satan. Episode Safeword: Salvation

*The definitive and bestselling account of Charles Manson* 'A sprawling, fast-paced account of Manson's life' The Times ' Fascinating' Daily Mail __________ Los Angeles, California. 1969. Seven people are found shot, stabbed and beaten to death in Beverley Hills. Among them is actress Sharon Tate, the beautiful young wife of Roman Polanski. It soon became apparent that a happyish cult known as 'The Family' was responsible. Their charismatic and manipulative leader, Charles Manson, took the public's imagination. As the world watched in morbid fascination, the sensational and horrifying details of the case slowly emerged. Coming Down Fast is the definitive and most revealing account of one of the most notorious criminals in history, charting Manson's terrifying rise from petty-criminal to one of the most recognisable icons in criminal history. Including never-before-published photographs, this is the definitive book about Charles Manson.https://amzn.to/3VFdd3qBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Listen to the rest of this premium episode by subscribing at patreon.com/knowyourenemy.Roman Polanski's 2019 film about the Dreyfus affair, An Officer and a Spy, only recently made it's U.S. "premier," running for a few weeks in August at Film Forum in New York City. When it originally was released, it couldn't find an American distributor (and likewise was shunned by streaming services), a consequence of the MeToo moment meeting Polanski's criminal past—in 1978 he fled to Europe after being indicted for the rape of a 13 year-old girl in the United States. Polanski's past is particularly relevant for his film about the falsely accused Jewish officer in the French military, to whom, in publicity materials circulated when An Officer and a Spy came out in Europe in 2019, the director explicitly compared himself.Of course, we couldn't possibly have had on any other guest than John Ganz to help us understand the politics of the Dreyfus affair, both in 1895 and 2025, and what to make of Polanski's cinematic rendering of it. Topics include: Polanski's life and crimes; Hannah Arendt's treatment of the Dreyfus affair in The Origins of Totalitarianism; anti-semitism in 19th and early 20th century France; the way Polanski largely ignores the political convulsions caused by the Dreyfus affair, instead handling it more as a crime procedural, and why he might have done so; and more.Sources:John Ganz, "Reading, Watching," Unpopular Front, Aug 10, 2025— "Gramscians vs Sorelians," Unpopular Front, Jan 23, 2021— "The Third Republic and Today," Unpopular Front, Jan 27, 2021— "The Century of Rubbish," Unpopular Front, Feb 2, 2021— "From Republic to Reaction," Unpopular Front, Feb 4, 2021David Bell, "An Officer and a Spy," H-France, March 2021Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951)

Phil and Emily continue their mini series on Oscar-winning Best Director follow-ups from the 2000s with Oliver Twist (2005), Roman Polanski's adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic. They're joined by writer and producer Bryan Cogman, who may be one of the few people to have actually seen the film in theaters.The conversation dives into Polanski's unexpected choice to follow The Pianist with this family-oriented Dickens adaptation, why it feels strangely muted compared to both the director's darker films and other Dickens adaptations, and how Ben Kingsley's nuanced turn as Fagin stands out amidst an otherwise flat production. Together, they unpack Dickens' enduring influence, the many Oliver Twist adaptations across history, and how this version fits into Polanski's complicated legacy and the cinematic landscape of 2005.If you want more deep-dive discussions, exclusive mini series, and bonus content, join our Patreon at patreon.com/PodcastLikeIts.

Welcome to Old School, where we revisit some of our best episodes from previous years with some current reflections on why these episodes are still fascinating. In 1977, Roman Polanski raped 13-year old Samantha Geimer. But strangely, the rape itself wasn't as bad as what followed. Amanda and Chris join Samantha to sift through the trauma of thirty years of exploitation by the justice system and the media.

Demonic: How the Liberal Mob Is Endangering America by Ann Coulter. French Revolution chapter 6 All of Ann Coulter's Books are a must have on every Conservatives' bookshelf. Buy them Today... All of them!   The demon is a mob, and the mob is demonic. The Democratic Party activates mobs, depends on mobs, coddles mobs, publicizes and celebrates mobs—it is the mob. Sweeping in its scope and relentless in its argument, Demonic explains the peculiarities of liberals as standard groupthink behavior. To understand mobs is to understand liberals.   In her most provocative book to date, Ann Coulter argues that liberals exhibit all the psychological characteristics of a mob, for instance:   Liberal Groupthink: “The same mob mentality that leads otherwise law-abiding people to hurl rocks at cops also leads otherwise intelligent people to refuse to believe anything they haven't heard on NPR.” Liberal Schemes: “No matter how mad the plan is—Fraternité, the ‘New Soviet Man,' the Master Race, the Great Leap Forward, the Cultural Revolution, Building a New Society, ObamaCare—a mob will believe it.” Liberal Enemies: “Instead of ‘counterrevolutionaries,' liberals' opponents are called ‘haters,' ‘those who seek to divide us,' ‘tea baggers,' and ‘right-wing hate groups.' Meanwhile, conservatives call liberals ‘liberals'—and that makes them testy.” Liberal Justice: “In the world of the liberal, as in the world of Robespierre, there are no crimes, only criminals.” Liberal Violence: “If Charles Manson's followers hadn't killed Roman Polanski's wife, Sharon Tate, Clinton would have pardoned him, too, and he'd probably be teaching at Northwestern University.”   Citing the father of mob psychology, Gustave Le Bon, Coulter catalogs the Left's mob behaviors: the creation of messiahs, the fear of scientific innovation, the mythmaking, the preference for images over words, the lack of morals, and the casual embrace of contradictory ideas. Coulter traces the history of the liberal mob to the French Revolution and Robespierre's revolutionaries (delineating a clear distinction from America's founding fathers), who simply proclaimed that they were exercising the “general will” before slaughtering their fellow citizens “for the good of mankind.” Similarly, as Coulter demonstrates, liberal mobs, from student radicals to white-trash racists to anti-war and pro-ObamaCare fanatics today, have consistently used violence to implement their idea of the “general will.” This is not the American tradition; it is the tradition of Stalin, of Hitler, of the guillotine—and the tradition of the American Left. As the heirs of the French Revolution, Democrats have a history that consists of pandering to mobs, time and again, while Republicans, heirs to the American Revolution, have regularly stood for peaceable order. Hoping to muddy this horrifying truth, liberals slanderously accuse conservatives of their own crimes—assassination plots, conspiracy theorizing, political violence, embrace of the Ku Klux Klan. Coulter shows that the truth is the opposite: Political violence—mob violence—is always a Democratic affair. Surveying two centuries of mob movements, Coulter demonstrates that the mob is always destructive. And yet, she argues, beginning with the civil rights movement in the sixties, Americans have lost their natural, inherited aversion to mobs. Indeed, most Americans have no idea what they are even dealing with.             Only by recognizing the mobs and their demonic nature can America begin to defend itself.

As a child, Roman Polanski escaped from a Krakow ghetto on the day the Nazis took his father to a concentration camp. As a new filmmaker, he became the toast of young Hollywood with his 1968 horror masterpiece, Rosemary's Baby. But after the brutal murder of his wife, Sharon Tate, at the hands of the Manson family, Polanski unraveled. He wound up committing a heinous crime that led him to escape yet again – this time fleeing the country when an angry judge was ready to throw the book at him. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including child sexual abuse.

Mama Cass' role as Hollywood's hippie den mother pulled her into the orbit of troubling company during the “Summer of Love.” The former singer of The Mamas and the Papas thrived in Laurel Canyon's social circles, which included her close friend Sharon Tate and Sharon's husband, filmmaker Roman Polanski. But Cass' alleged involvement in some of the long rumored-hedonistic events put her at the center of a counter-narrative that explosively disrupts the supposed motive for the Manson family murders. Decades later, there's plenty to debunk about the final years of Mama Cass' life— including a silly, fat-shaming myth surrounding her death that has persisted for nearly 50 years. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including domestic violence and graphic descriptions of violence and sexual assault.
