Podcasts about Room with a View

James Ivory formed the filmmaking company Merchant Ivory with producer Ismail Merchant and the writer Ruth Prawer Jhabvala in 1961. The company went on to produce over 40 films and became synonymous with a particular sumptuous movie genre in the 80s and 90s, often adapted from literary classics. Merchant Ivory won awards and acclaim for A Room With A View, Howard's End, The Remains Of The Day and many more. In 2018, at the age of 89, James Ivory became the oldest ever winner of an Academy Award. Having been nominated three times previously for best director, he won the best adapted screenplay Oscar for the coming-of-age drama Call Me By Your Name. Now 96 years old, James Ivory recalls his upbringing in Oregon, the son of a timber merchant. He says that seeing Gone With the Wind soon after the film had first been released in 1939 was a formative moment in his love of cinema. Having initially studied architecture, he enrolled at the University of California to study cinema and began making short films. It was during a trip to India that he first became fascinated with the country and was introduced to the great Indian filmmaker Satyajit Ray, who was a hugely influential figure. James Ivory also talks about the unique relationship he had with Ismail Merchant and Ruth Jhabvala whom he describes as his "life's partners".Producer: Edwina Pitman

The ‘Rumours' are true... screen superstar Cate Blanchett and director Guy Maddin are joining Simon this week to give us the gossip on their surreal new satire—once they've finished fangirling over the music of Sparks, that is. Following decades of avant garde work that's made him one of Canada's most celebrated filmmakers, ‘Rumours' is the biggest movie to date from the Winnipeg weirdo—its star-studded cast featuring Charles Dance and Alicia Vikander alongside Blanchett. Set at a G7 summit called to address an ‘unnamed-crisis', it follows the hapless world leaders as they are beleaguered by bronze-age bog bodies come to life in some sort of apocalypse situation. There's also a giant brain. It's as odd as it sounds. Mark reviews this bizarre object of a film, along with ‘Merchant Ivory', a documentary deep dive on the filmmakers responsible for all those most quintessentially British of period dramas from ‘Room With A View' to ‘The Remains of the Day'—and ‘Nightbitch', Marielle Heller's dark comedy where Amy Adams plays a new mother at her wits end who transforms into a dog. The Christmas Spectacular is almost upon us! Mark and Simon will be live onstage at London's Prince Edward theatre this Sunday 8th December.

Elsie the cat has a set of 120 buttons programmed with words. She uses them to lie, swear, apologise, express grief and frustration and love to her human, the author Mary Robinette Kowal, who talks about what's involved in learning to communicate via language buttons with companion animals. And animal behaviour expert Zazie Todd explains how animals might be interacting with human language.  This is the first half of a two-parter: in the next episode, some talking dogs - and their humans - come to visit, and we hear about the kinds of things you find out about what your animal friend is really thinking, and how it changes the ways you communicate with other humans too.

“Don't you agree that, on one's first visit to Florence, one must have a room with a view?” We watched the Merchant Ivory 1985 classic "A Room with a View" with our friend Rufino Cabang and excuse us as we faint in the arms of Julian Sands. Breaking American audiences to actors like Helena Bonham Carter, Julian Sands, Daniel Day Lewis, and  Rupert Graves this movie was a huge cross over success in American that was nominated for eight Academy Awards, and won for its adaptation for the screen by Ruth Prater Jhabvala. 20 year-old Helena looks like a porcelain doll,  swoon worthy men, and Maggie Smith is also here to talk some hot goss with Judi Dench. What more could you want in a costume drama! Also, the perfect cover for a movie to rent for young gay boys across the world, that features a famous skinny dipping scene with Julian Sands, Rupert Graves, and Simon Callow stripping down to their birthday suits for a dip. "A Room with a View" helped usher in the success of movies like Maurice, Remains of the Day, and Howard's End much to excitement of English Lit nerds, and all the boys who were "a joy to have in class."  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Twitter: @MTMUGPod Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna

When Mahwish Syed, a beacon of resilience and creativity, graced our studio, she brought with her a tale of triumph that has the power to ignite a transformation within us all. As an award-winning designer and author, she recounts her confrontation with breast cancer and how it became the catalyst for her book "Purgatory to Paradise," a testament to her journey of creating a healing sanctuary at home. Our dialogue traverses beyond her story, extending to the profound impact of our mindset and surroundings on our health, guided by the principles of epigenetics. Mawish's design sensibilities, inspired by films like "A Room With A View" and the Pelican chair, also color our conversation revealing her unique approach to life and wellness.Transformation is a dance with change, and as Mahwish shares her personal narratives of welcoming her son into the world prematurely and facing the trials of cancer, we uncover the strength that adversity can bestow upon us. The episode weaves through the symbolism of the snake and the myth of Persephone, drawing connections between spirituality and quantum physics, encouraging us to welcome change as a harbinger of growth. We dissect the importance of personal mythology, the acceptance of our darker facets, and the liberation found in weaving our passions into our work, nudging listeners towards a journey of self-discovery and authentic existence.Our exploration culminates in a contemplation of the spaces we inhabit and how they can be transformed into sources of healing and rejuvenation. I share insights from my design background, challenging what's commonly accepted as 'healthy' and 'environmentally friendly,' and delve into the importance of making conscious lifestyle choices for our health. From the detrimental effects of blue light to the calming influence of our sensory experiences, we examine practical ways to mold our environments to foster well-being. This episode is an invitation to redefine the way we live, interact, and heal in our personal paradises, all while being serenaded by the inspiring journey of Mahwish Syed.Thanks for listening. Please check out our website at www.forsauk.com to hear great conversations on topics that need to be talked about. In these times of intense polarization we all need to find time to expand our Frame of Reference.

Are morals just statements or do they have a deeper meaning behind them?In Episode #437 of 'Musings', Juan & I discuss: why ethics/philosophy is kind of lousy for understanding about morality, whether Spartans would approve of my stance on non-violence, Juan's dislike of them because they aren't actionable, the ambiguity of Aesop's fables and a list of books that helped me to understand this topic.

Written by Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, and directed by James Ivory.

Acclaimed costume designer Jenny Beavan (MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, CURELLA, A ROOM WITH A VIEW) joins us for a conversation about her craft on this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast. Hailing from England, Jenny shares how she fell in with the famed Merchant Ivory troupe, and she describes spending her early formative professional years traveling around the world and working alongside the legendary filmmakers. We later consider how, just as with real people, characters reuse clothing and how some costume pieces take on a life of their own. Jenny also reflects on how she adapts after having the wool pulled over her eyes on a project and how designing costumes is never about the clothes themselves but about the stories they tell. At the end, Jenny is generous enough to offer salient advice to budding costume designers. - This episode is sponsored by Dallas Film Commission  Instagram: @dallasfilmcommission

“It's like living in a cemetery.” Jung Seongno lives in a banjiha, or semi-basement apartment in the South Korean capital Seoul. Last August parts of Seoul experienced major flooding. As a result several people, including a family of three, drowned in their banjiha. Seongno dreams of having a place where the sunlight and the wind can come in. These subterranean dwellings are just one example of a growing wealth divide in Asia's fourth largest economy. With almost half of the country's population living in Greater Seoul, the struggle to find affordable housing has become a major political issue. It also contributes to Korea's worryingly low birth rate. The inability of young people to afford a home of their own means they are not starting families. Many have given up on relationships altogether. John Murphy reports from Seoul, where owning a home of your own is so important and yet increasingly unattainable. Produced and presented by John Murphy Producer in Seoul: Keith Keunhyung Park Studio mix: Rod Farquhar Production co-ordinator: Iona Hammond Series editor: Penny Murphy (Photo: Park Jongeon, his wife and dog live in this one room in one of Seoul's poor housing districts.

However, her interactions with Mr. Emerson force her to face the reality of her situation and the truth of her feelings for George.This chapter is a must-listen for those seeking a rich and thought-provoking exploration of love, truth, and the human experience. As Lucy's story unfolds, listeners will be captivated by the timeless themes and poignant emotions that resonate throughout the narrative. Dive into this chapter of "A Room With a View" and join Lucy on her journey towards self-discovery, love, and the pursuit of truth.

Lucy decides to end her engagement with Cecil. She confronts him about their differences and her belief that they are not suited for each other. Lucy is more angry than sorry, and her voice shows it. She tells Cecil that her education is not good enough, she won't be able to talk to his friends, and she doesn't think she'll behave as his wife should. Cecil is bewildered and not even angry, but he tries to understand her reasons.Lucy becomes frustrated with Cecil's dignified behaviour, as she had hoped for a petty reaction to make the breakup easier. She accuses him of not allowing her to be herself and shielding her from the truth. Cecil, realizing the truth in her words, thanks her for showing him his true self and asks for her forgiveness. They part ways amicably, with Cecil believing in Lucy's ideals and strength.As Lucy contemplates her decision, she believes she could never marry and must be one of the women who care for liberty and not for men. She pushes away thoughts of George, who had helped her come to this realization. Lucy joins the "armies of the benighted," who follow neither their hearts nor their brains and march towards their destiny guided by catch-words. This army is full of pleasant and pious people, but they have sinned against passion and truth, leading to a life of hypocrisy, cynicism, and discomfort. Lucy enters this army when she lies to George about not loving him and lies to Cecil about not loving anyone else. The night receives her, much like it had received Miss Bartlett thirty years before.

Mr. Beebe, the local clergyman, plays a pivotal role in determining Lucy's future. As he bicycles over to Windy Corner, he encounters Freddy and Cecil, who reveal that Lucy has broken off her engagement with Cecil. Mr. Beebe is secretly relieved, as he believes Lucy has made the right decision.Upon arriving at Windy Corner, Mr. Beebe discusses the situation with Miss Bartlett, who confides in him her belief that Lucy must go away to Greece with the Miss Alans in order to find herself again. Though initially skeptical, Mr. Beebe agrees to help Lucy secure her mother's permission for the trip.Throughout the chapter, the tension between Lucy's desire for independence and the expectations of those around her is palpable. The listener is left to wonder whether her journey to Greece will provide the freedom she seeks or if it will simply create new challenges for her to overcome. With Mr. Beebe's support, however, there is hope that Lucy will be able to forge her own path and ultimately choose the life she truly desires.

Lucy is faced with the aftermath of her passionate encounter with George Emerson. As she struggles to suppress her newfound feelings for George, the truth about their moment together is revealed in the most unexpected way - through the pages of Miss Lavish's novel. Unable to bear the weight of her secret, Lucy confides in her cousin, Miss Bartlett, and the two women confront the situation head-on.The tension in the chapter is palpable as Lucy tries to navigate her emotions and the expectations of those around her. The battle between love and duty is at the forefront, and Lucy must choose between her heart and societal norms. Her decision is further complicated by her engagement to Cecil Vyse, a man who, as George points out, may not be the best match for her.As the chapter unfolds, Lucy's frustration with Cecil grows, and she begins to see him in a new light. The contrast between George and Cecil becomes strikingly clear, and Lucy's feelings for George only intensify. However, she is determined not to let her emotions cloud her judgment, and she confronts George with a fierce resolve. The exchange between them is tense, powerful, and ultimately life-changing for Lucy.

Today The Bittersweet Life pops off to Florence, or at least, Tiffany regales Katy with the details of her recent trip to the cradle of the Renaissance, including specific stops she made to research her latest book, a YA historical fiction thriller set in Florence in 1600. Also, we talk about how memory-provoking it can be to travel to a place that you haven't been in over a decade, but that you have a few extremely strong impressions of from past trips. Tiffany takes a jaunt down memory lane to her very first trip to Florence when she was 14, when she explored the city through the lens of her obsession with E. M. Forster's A Room with a View. ------------------------------------- ADVERTISE WITH US: Reach expats, future expats, and travelers all over the world. Send us an email to get the conversation started.
