Kahden kilpailevan suvun teinit pitävät salahäät, jotka päättyvät tragediaan? Näinkin voi kuvailla Shakespearen tunnetuimman näytelmän eli Romeon ja Julian juonen. Aussi Baz Luhrman ohjasi tarinasta kitch-silppuisen punk-teoksen, jonka Jutta ja Mikko katsoivat tällä kertaa. Miltä vuonna 1996 julkaistu elokuva vaikuttaa nyt? Miten pärjäävät nuoret Leo DiCaprio ja Claire Danes nimirooleissa? Kuumassa kyssärissä puhutaan vihdoin The Pittin uudesta kaudesta ja lopuksi hyvää kesäkatseltavaa sweet chili dippien eli meidän kulttuurisuositusten teille muodossa. Tuu mukaan, nää on överit kemut!

The episode dives into all the ways to make running events feel more fun, memorable, social, and joyful....from glitter planning and matching outfits to VIP race upgrades, playlists, post-race recovery plans, and embracing the chaos of race weekends with your friends.

Send us Fan MailOren Michels is an entrepreneur, investor, board member, and advisor to technology startups in the US and Europe. He is the co-founder and CEO of Barndoor AI, the control plane for agentic AI, and the founder who previously helped define the API management category with Mashery, acquired by Intel in 2013. He is also a Tony-nominated Broadway and Off-Broadway producer whose credits include Romeo+Juliet and Good Night, and Good Luck starring George Clooney.In this episode, Oren draws on two decades of building foundational infrastructure for the enterprise to make the case that governing AI agents is not a security problem. It is an entirely new category of problem, and most companies do not yet have the vocabulary to describe it, let alone the tools to solve it. If your agents can already write to your CRM, interpret your instructions, and act without life experience or fear of consequences, who is actually in control?In this conversation, we discuss:Why securing AI agents is entirely different from managing APIs, and why traditional security and identity access tools were never designed to handle what agents can do.The reason most so-called agentic AI is still glorified robotic process automation, and what it will actually take to unlock enterprise value.How Barndoor AI's "least privilege" framework for agents works, and why the permission logic goes far beyond the identity of the human using the tool.Why an agent with delete access to your CRM is one probabilistic misfire away from a catastrophic outcome, and why ultimate responsibility always comes back to the humans operating the tools.The BYO AI parallel to BYOD: why well-meaning employees using personal AI tools with company data may force the enterprise governance moment no one is ready for.Why the same instinct that took Oren from API infrastructure to Broadway and back to enterprise AI may be exactly the mindset the agentic era demands from its builders.Explore this conversation:00:00 Intro and fun Fact03:46 Oren Michels's Path From API Management to Building Barndoor AI05:44 Redefining Trust: AI Lacks Life Experience and Fear of Consequences08:24 History Repeating: Why AI Needs a Control Plane Just Like APIs Did12:35 Deterministic APIs vs. Probabilistic Agents: Why Governing AI Is a Social Challenge18:25 How Barndoor AI's "Least Privilege" Framework for Agents Actually Works20:50 The Token Economy and Context Windows: Wandering Into the AI Home Depot25:25 Preventing Catastrophic Failures: Why AI Agents Should Never Have Delete Access31:39 The BlackBerry Moment of AI: Navigating the "BYO AI" Enterprise Trend38:04 Balancing Tech and Creativity: From Enterprise AI to Producing on BroadwayResourcesSubscribe to the AI & The Future of Work NewsletterConnect with Oren on LinkedInAI fun fact articleOn How AI may eliminate jobs: what the data reveals
DISPONIBLE EN VIDEO POR YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/EzFgfsyVzoo¿Qué pasa cuando un director decide no solo adaptar una historia clásica, sino reinventarla con un estilo visual excesivo y completamente personal?En este episodio exploramos las audaces reinterpretaciones de Baz Luhrmann en ROMEO + JULIET (1996) y THE GREAT GATSBY (2013), dos películas que transforman relatos icónicos en espectáculos visuales llenos de energía, caos y glamour.A lo largo de la conversación analizamos cómo el estilo maximalista de Luhrmann —colores vibrantes, edición frenética y giros modernos— divide tanto a críticos como a audiencias. Revisamos las decisiones clave de dirección como el montaje, la selección musical y el diseño de producción, para entender cómo estas elecciones moldean la experiencia emocional y redefinen historias que creíamos conocer.También hablamos de actuaciones y casting, incluyendo la interpretación de Leonardo DiCaprio como Romeo y Gatsby, y cómo los actores logran integrarse en estos mundos estilizados sin perder impacto. Exploramos los símbolos, motivos visuales y excesos que caracterizan su filmografía, así como el eterno debate entre estilo y sustancia en el cine contemporáneo.Este episodio es una invitación a cuestionar qué hace realmente grande a una película: ¿puede el estilo elevar una historia o termina opacando su esencia? Ideal para cinéfilos, amantes de la literatura y cualquiera interesado en cómo los clásicos se reinventan para nuevas generaciones. Prepárate para un viaje lleno de exceso visual… y una conversación más profunda de lo que parece.No olvides dejar tus comentarios sobre tu experiencia viendo estas películas, y síguenos en redes sociales para más contenido cinéfilo.NOTA: Spoilers y detalles gráficos incluidos.

John Leguizamo is back on our screens—though he never really left. For decades he has played characters that have become comedy cult classics: Chi Chi Rodriguez in To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar, to Benny Blanco in Carlitos Way, and Tybalt in Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet. He’s the voice of Bruno in Encanto and Sid the Sloth in Ice Age. Roles that he argues would have skyrocketed any white actor to stardom. In this episode we break down his roles, why he thinks entertainers have a responsibility to speak up and get a peek into his new Hulu show where he plays Pablo Escobar.

Classic stories retold. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing and William Chen discuss Wuthering Heights (2026) and Romeo + Juliet (1996). Emerald Fennell's adaptation of Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights and Baz Luhrmann's adaptation of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet provide us with a wealth of points to talk about. We begin by discussing our reactions to 1996's Romeo + Juliet. We talk about the presence of this adaptation in high school classrooms, our initial reactions to the film both back in the day and now, and the high energy editing, acting and production elements. We break down the performances of Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes as the titular Romeo and Juliet, as well as praising the performances of John Leguizamo, Harold Perrineau, Pete Postlewaite, Paul Sorvino, Paul Rudd, Diane Verona and even Annette Bening. We discuss our reactions to Wuthering Heights, starting with our knowledge of the book (which none of us have read) and our expectations of Emerald Fennell's after our experiences watching Promising Young Woman (2020) and Saltburn (2023). We talk about the casting and performances of Margot Robbie, Jacob Elordi, Hong Chau, Alison Oliver, Martin Clunes and Shazad Latif. We each had different enjoyment levels of Wuthering Heights and each bring our reactions to the table.

My guest today is Baz Luhrmann, the award-winning director whose films include Moulin Rouge!, Strictly Ballroom, The Great Gatsby, Elvis, and Romeo + Juliet. His newest film is EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert, a critically acclaimed documentary about Elvis that's playing right now in theaters and in IMAX. Before becoming a massively successful film director, Baz began his showbiz career as an actor, and as a ballroom dancer, in Australia. His first film was Strictly Ballroom, which came out in 1992, and became one of the highest-grossing Australian films of all time. It was originally a play, and there's a song in the film that was part of the story all the way back when it was first performed on stage. And that's what Baz and I talked about for this episode.For more info, visit songexploder.net/baz-luhrmann.

Few filmmakers have a style as bold, romantic and unmistakable as Baz Luhrmann. From his breakout debut Strictly Ballroom to the glittering spectacle of The Great Gatsby starring Leonardo DiCaprio, and the fever-dream energy of Elvis, Luhrmann has built a career on transforming familiar stories into cinematic events. In this episode, he takes us inside one of his most iconic creative decisions: the unforgettable fish tank scene in his 1996 adaptation of Romeo + Juliet - and reveals how that moment came to life. We also explore his latest project, EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert, a return to Elvis Presley through newly uncovered footage from the legendary Las Vegas residency. Beyond the films, Luhrmann reflects on the journey that shaped him. Raised in Herons Creek, a tiny rural town in New South Wales, Australia, he grew up surrounded by performance and storytelling: his father ran a quirky petrol station and cinema, while his mother owned a dress shop and taught ballroom dancing. We discuss the setbacks that tested him, his unconventional audition process, his enduring creative partnership with his wife and the viral TikTok moment that sent the internet into a frenzy. I hope you enjoy this candid, wide-ranging conversation with one of modern cinema's great showmen. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 02:28 Creativity as Self‑Medication 05:52 Why Elvis? 09:22 The Romeo + Juliet Fish Tank Origin Story 11:01 Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen: The Accidental Hit 13:56 Failure #1: Losing Instincts, Depression and Finding the Way Back 26:16 Casting Without Auditions: Baz's Workshop Method 27:58 Creating a Fear-Free Room 28:47 The Big Break That Became a Public Flop 30:56 Rebounding with Strictly Ballroom 32:19 Choosing Collaborators 33:36 Marriage and Deep Trust 35:42 Criticism and Staying Humble (Plus the Viral TikTok Moment) 40:38 Future-Focused Filmmaking & Final Reflections
Emerald Fennell's new Wuthering Heights is full of stylistic provocations — skin walls, bed eggs, and light BDSM among them — but whether they are in service of, or distractions from, a bigger idea about the source material is up for debate this week. The divided reactions to Fennell's contemporized take on an oft-adapted classic are reminiscent of the love-it-or-hate it response that greeted Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet back in 1996, which we bring back in for Connections to examine the core romantic notions driving these two tales of doomed (and frequently soaking wet) love and/or lust. And in Your Next Picture Show we continue the Wuthering Heights adaptation discussion with a couple of recommendations that illustrate some of the different tonal directions this material can take. Please share your thoughts about Romeo + Juliet, Wuthering Heights, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

With its bold stylization, pop soundtrack, and provocative sensibility, Emerald Fennell's new Wuthering Heights appeals to a contemporary audience so openly it can't help but call to mind Baz Luhrmann's 1996 adaptation of another literary classic about doomed lovers, William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet. Fennell citing it as a reference point for her film prompted us to revisit what made Lurhmann's approach so enticing and/or annoying at the time, and consider how its maximalist mix of reverence and irreverence toward the source material — not to mention an ascendant Leonardo DiCaprio in peak heartthrob mode — has turned it into a generation's formative Romeo and Juliet.

"She's a ten to me and that's the part that matters." — Paul EastwickIf it's Valentine's Day, we must be talking about love. Paul Eastwick studies attraction and relationships at UC Davis, and his new book Bonded by Evolution takes aim at the "old science" that treated romance like a competitive market where everyone gets assigned a number. The incels, of course, ran with that research to compound their paranoia about the other sex. Eastwick says they got it wrong—and so, with the exception of Paul Eastwick, did most academics.When two people look at the same photograph and make a hot-or-not judgment, Eastwick explains, they only agree about 65% of the time. After they've known the person for months, agreement drops to barely better than a coin flip. So there isn't any universal hierarchy of desirability. What's real is that some people will think you're an 8 and others will think you're a 3—and that quirky disagreement explains most of what happens in the science of attraction. The problem is that dating apps make everything feel like they're in a market, thereby filtering out the "slow burn" people who need time to grow on you. Eastwick's advice, therefore, is forget swiping, reboot your social networks, throw candle lit dinner parties where nobody knows each other. It's more democratic, it takes longer, and it actually works. Happy V day everyone.About the GuestPaul Eastwick is Professor of Psychology at UC Davis, where he studies attraction and close relationships. He is the author of Bonded by Evolution: The New Science of Love and Connection (2026) and co-host of the podcast Love Factually with Eli Finkel.ReferencesConcepts discussed:● The mating market hypothesis treats attraction like an economic exchange where people are assigned desirability values and seek partners at their "level"—an idea Eastwick argues is far more limited than academics have assumed.● Limerence is the academic term for the intense, obsessive early stage of romantic attraction—what we might call infatuation or passion.● The Dunbar number (~150) represents the cognitive limit on stable social relationships—roughly the size of hunter-gatherer groups where our mating psychology evolved.● Pair bonding emerged in human evolution about two million years ago as brain size increased and children required longer periods of intensive parental investment.● Attachment theory describes the deep bonds that form when we trust someone to have our back, celebrate our successes, and support us through difficulty.Evolution and mating:● Human males became smaller relative to females and lost their sharp canines as women selected for men who were safe around babies—"the evolved male is the good caregiver and good dad."● Unlike gorillas with their harem-style mating, humans shifted toward pair bonding because helpless infants with expanding brains needed investment from both parents.● Polyamory research shows that people can form genuine attachment bonds with multiple partners—trust, wellbeing, and attachment levels match or exceed monogamous couples.Also mentioned:● Eli Finkel is Eastwick's co-host on the Love Factually podcast and author of The All-or-Nothing Marriage.● When Harry Met Sally (1989) depicts "one of the most beautiful friendships on screen," according to Eastwick, and holds up well on the friends-to-lovers pathway.● Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet (1996) was the subject of a recent Love Factually episode—"that MTV style of filmmaking" with Claire Danes and Leonardo DiCaprio.● The incel and manosphere communities have taken 1990s attraction research and "run with it in some strange and unjustified ways."About Keen On AmericaNobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen.

Sam Raimi's new survival thriller Send Help is more overtly comedic and cartoonishly violent than the other film in this week's pairing of dueling castaway duos, but those qualities are both rooted in complimentary ideas about class, gender, and power. They're also both rooted in a baseline cynicism toward humanity that informs a lot of Raimi's work, as well as our discussion of Send Help, for which we are once again joined by cultural critic and friend of the show Charles Bramesco. Then in Connections we bring 1974's Swept Away back into the discussion to see how its sexual fantasy aligns with Send Help's revenge fantasy, and how both are shaped by these films' desert (or is it deserted?) island setting. Please share your thoughts about Swept Away, Send Help, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730. Next Pairing: Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights and Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

From Malibu's Most Wanted to Most Hung?The banter begins with Jamie Kennedy's legendary TV and film career—but quickly shifts to the elephant on the internet. Yes, THAT photo. Is it real? We get the truth straight from Jamie himself. (Spoiler: blurry or not, it's all him.)From Scream to The Jamie Kennedy ExperimentThe boys celebrate Jamie's cultural moments and roast the younger generation for confusing him with James Kennedy from Vanderpump Rules. According to one producer, Jamie had even “died in a hot tub.” Jamie takes it in stride: “I'm alive, bitches.” Playboy Mansion Secrets & Trunk Sneak-InsJamie shares wild-but-wholesome nights at the Playboy Mansion—rubbing shoulders with Carmen Electra and Anna Nicole Smith, and partying with Too Short on the mic. Meanwhile, Pol' confesses to sneaking in via a car trunk. They may have even crossed paths at one of those parties… destiny? The coffee thinks so. Coffee Reading Gets Real: “Who's Whispering in Your Ear?”Pol' delivers a powerful coffee cup reading that stops Jamie in his tracks, diving into:· Emotional stagnancy· Life-changing decisions· The blurred line between Jamie the person and the persona· And if he should finally put a ring on girlfriend Elyssa's fingerIt's insightful, eerie, and so accurate it gives Jamie chills. “You're 100% right,” he admits. “I have to be all of me. Always.” Hollywood Then & NowJamie opens up about the early days—from being an extra in Dead Poets Society, to Romeo + Juliet with Leonardo DiCaprio, to the breakout success of Scream. He recalls working with Steve Martin and Ellen DeGeneres and reflects on how much the industry has changed. Verdict? Social media fame ≠ movie star. He's rooting for passion over followers. Red Carpet Scams & Designer TeaPol' drops a bombshell: a major actress demanded six figures just to wear one of his gowns to the Oscars—even though his designs have graced winners like Karen Tolliver (Hair Love). Jamie's jaw drops. “She made $20 million and wants you to pay her?!” As always, Pol' and Patrik bring fashion realness with a side of shade. Hot Topics & Flirty Chaos· Zoe Kravitz & Harry Styles: Cute or confusing? Pol' says let them live.· Jamie's 20-year age gap with Elyssa: He defends it with honesty and humor. (Also, she's not in 12th grade. Relax.)· OnlyFans culture: Jamie calls out society's weird double standards—and if he'd ever post a pickle shot. Snow BooBoo Is Coming…Pol' & Patrik tease their adorable new doll line: Snow BooBoo from Snow White 90210. Jamie's sold. Pre-orders are open, and this booboo's ready to slay. Final ThoughtsBetween the jokes, raunch, and Hollywood chaos, this episode shows a man at a crossroads—balancing fame, love, legacy, and authenticity. Whether you're a longtime Jamie Kennedy fan or just meeting him, Undressed reminds you that real connection always beats public perception. Don't miss Part 2—coming soon!

**REPOST** On this week's annotated deep dive, The Cultists present Baz Lurman's 90s frenetic teen angst extravaganza, Romeo + Juliet (1996). Known for his kinetic color-fueled explosions of images and sound, Lurman's “red curtain trilogy” put him on the film world's map as an Auteur with a distinct and immediately recognizable style. Bright, brash, and unforgiving to anyone who prefers a more minimal Mise-en-scène, Lurman's penchant for decadence was ripe for a world of high octane emotions, brawls, masquerades, and the lush arc of an epic demise. However, Lurman's vision of bringing the dusty pages of the oft produced Shakespearean play into the hearts and minds of the notoriously apathetic 90s teenage market was a rather unprecedented and hard sell for commercial studios at the time. Particularly when Lurman insisted that not only would he win over a teen audience, he would do it all without altering a single syllable of the original Shakespearean language of the play. And he would use a cast of mostly young people to do it. Lurman's vision succeeded and the decade to follow would be one stuffed with Shakespearean adaptations for teens, and yet, ‘R+J' remains distinct among them all. A burning strange indefinable star, that shall not be defied. Deep dives include: The film's production history, editing and cinematography; the lineage of Romeo and Juliet literature that lead to Shakespeare's 1596 adaptation of the tale; the 1996 film's comparisons with the exactly 400 years older play; the historical roots of the warring Guelph vs. Ghibelline factionalism that led to such constant civil brawls; how amazing it is that Romeo spends a full third of the play desperately and despondently in love with someone else; why the developing teenage mind lacks impulse control; and why even Dante personally hated the Montagues and Capulets enough to write them into his levels of Hell two centuries before Shakespeare was even born. Episode Safe Word(s): “impulse control” (REPOSTED Episode from 2023 that traveled over from the old Anchor platform with a broken link).
From pre-med at Columbia to a Tony nomination on Broadway, Gabby Beans has carved out one of the most unique journeys in the industry. She shares how she navigated early setbacks (including being dropped by her first big manager) to build her career from the ground up with fearless off-Broadway work. That perseverance has more than paid off: Gabby earned a Tony Award nomination for her Broadway debut in The Skin of Our Teeth. Most recently, she's stunned audiences on Broadway in Sam Gold's Romeo + Juliet, taking on the dual roles of Mercutio and Friar Lawrence. On screen, Gabby's credits are just as impressive—House of Cards, Succession, Blue Bloods, The Good Fight, and her recent breakout in Apple TV+'s Presumed Innocent alongside Jake Gyllenhaal, Ruth Negga, and Bill Camp. Gabby opens up about the highs and lows of her journey, why she loves Zoom chemistry reads, and the wisdom she's gained from working with some of the industry's most visionary directors. This episode proves that in a career where “nothing ever happens the way you think it will,” passion and persistence truly light the way. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Gabby Beans right here. Credits: Honey Don't!

Capping off ETR's “Summer Blockbuster Month,” we've got a man who has some experience in that department - Leonardo DiCaprio. After gaining traction with his performance in 1996's “Romeo + Juliet,” Leo stars in one of the most blockbustery blockbusters off all time - “Titanic.” It makes him a bonafide movie star, solidifies his heart throb status, and turns him into the hottest young actor in town. And tabloids can't get enough of which supermodel is on the arm of Hollywood's perennial bachelor. Leo has managed to do the near impossible in Tinseltown. He's retained his A-list, movie star status for decades now, all while keeping his private life...well, private. Not bad for a kid who got his start on “Growing Pains.”You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.
