Today we look back at the 1975 American thriller film directed by Steven Spielberg, based on the 1974 novel by Peter Benchley, in celebration of its 50 year anniversary. It stars Roy Scheider as police chief Martin Brody, who, with the help of a marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss) and a professional shark hunter (Robert Shaw), hunts a man-eating great white shark that attacks beachgoers at a summer resort town. Murray Hamilton plays the mayor, and Lorraine Gary portrays Brody's wife.Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

Jaws, directed by Steven Spielberg, turns 50 this month. Chief Brody, played by Roy Scheider, is pulled in multiple directions after a fatal shark attack, and subsequent murders, none of which the town's local leaders take seriously. When Hooper, played by Richard Dreyfuss, comes into the picture, the two of them unite with the hope of getting to the bottom of the situation, with factual, scientific accuracy in mind. Hooper and Brody as outsiders, not locals, eventually team up with Robert Shaw's Quint to hunt down the shark, and end the beast's terror. Lisa Lake, a killer designer, awesome photographer, and drone pilot, vividly remembers seeing Jaws in the theatre and hadn't seen it since then, but she re-watched it for this episode.-With over twenty years of creative experience, Lisa Lake is a photographer, graphic designer, and drone pilot who delivers marketing and advertising, logos and dynamic websites, ad campaigns, pro-level photography, and video.

It's the 50th anniversary of Jaws, and we've yet to do an official Steven Spielberg film so the timing just feels right.

RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey is joined again by Vidar Hjardeng MBE, Inclusion and Diversity Consultant for ITV News across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands for the next of his regular audio described theatre reviews for 2025. This week we celebrate movie history and the choppy waters behind the filming of Jaws as ‘The Shark is Broken' visited the Birmingham repertory Theatre with description by Professional Audio Describer Julia Grundy. About ‘The Shark is Broken' Dive into the drama behind the scenes of Hollywood's first blockbuster… Fade in: The open ocean, 1974. Filming is delayed…again. The lead actors – theatre veteran Robert Shaw and young Hollywood hotshots Richard Dreyfuss and Roy Scheider – are crammed into a too-small boat, entirely at the mercy of foul weather and a faulty mechanical co-star. Alcohol flows, egos collide, and tempers flare on a chaotic voyage that just might lead to cinematic magic…if it doesn't sink them all. Ian Shaw gives one  of the most exhilarating theatrical performances of the year” - Evening Standard A smash hit in the West End and on Broadway, THE SHARK IS BROKEN celebrates movie history and peeks at the choppy waters behind Hollywood's first blockbuster.

Unverschämt lange drei Jahre ist es nun schon wieder her, dass sich der hauptamtliche Cineast Stefan Jung in die heiligen Hallen des Bahnhofskinos verirrte. Verständlicherweise, denn immerhin hat der nimmermüde Autor seit seinem letzten Besuch ungefähr drölfzig Blu-ray-Booklets, Audiokommentare, Filmkritiken und Sachbuchtexte veröffentlicht. Umso wunderbarer, dass ich Stefan nun wieder begrüßen darf, um über John Frankenheimers 52 Pick-Up (1986) zu palavern. Der bietet nicht nur gemeinsame Lieblinge wie Roy Scheider, Ann-Margret und John Glover in den Hauptrollen, sondern vergüldet den typischen 80s-Sleaze von Cannon Films auch noch mit einem exquisiten Drehbuch von Elmore Leonard (Mr. Majestyk, Out of Sight). Ach ja, und dann wären da noch Ron Jeremy, Amber Lynn und die anderen US-Pornolegenden– aber dazu dann mehr im Gespräch.

Roy Scheider stars alongside Olympia Dukakis in BETTER LIVING, a comedy about a dysfunctional family dealing with the surprise return of their father. The Mikes aren't crazy about this one, but have you been watching THE PITT? Because you'll be hearing a lot about THE PITT in this episode!

William Friedkin za kamerou, Gene Hackman a Roy Scheider před ní, pět Oscarů a nejslavnější filmová automobilová honička všech dob. Francouzská spojka je klasika mezi thrillery, která redefinovala akční scény, představila světu dnes ikonického drsňáka Pepka Doyla a diváky i kritiky strhla skutečným příběhem newyorských poldů, kteří se rozhodli vyšlápnout si na obchodníky s drogami. Tahle legenda už má za sebou víc než půlstoletí, ale dodnes inspiruje tvůrce akčních filmů a svou špinavostí, nekompromisností a uvěřitelností nepřestává fascinovat. A my se jí teď v nejnovějším MovieZone Live Speciálu pořádně podíváme na zoubek.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water... It's sequel time! This week we dive in to 1978's JAWS 2. Amity is haunted once again by a terrifying shark, forcing Police Chief Brody (Roy Scheider) to confront the growing danger while others doubt his warnings (again). As tensions rise, a group of young sailors find themselves in a desperate fight for survival. Also this week: Lance's moving woes during a historic storm in Pittsburgh, Ben is curious about bird anatomy, and Roy Scheider really didnt want to do this movie.

Julian, Madeline, and Emilio are joined by Brendan McDonald, the producer of 'WTF with Marc Maron,' to finish off their cycle of New York City movies with a "Close-Up" on the works of legendary cinematographer Owen Roizman. A versatile visual talent ready for whatever came his way, Roizman burst out of the gate with William Friedkin's crime drama "The French Connection" (1971), in which he unforgettably and frantically photographed a plethora of New York locales. This showcase of his skills made him the perfect choice to shoot "The Taking of Pelham One Two Three" (1974), the Joseph Sargent-directed, subway-set thriller infused with workplace humor that indelibly captures a timeless spirit of New York. But Roizman's aptitude also extended beyond the grimy streets and subway tunnels, and rose up to the broadcasting towers of Midtown Manhattan in "Network" (1976), the darkly prescient media satire written by Paddy Chayefsky and directed by Sidney Lumet. Blending their eyes for detail with their lived experience as New Yorkers, the group get into how Roizman's visual sense cemented the iconic status of these films, and why they stand the test of time even as they were made just a few years apart from one another. To hear Brendan discuss movies and other topics regularly, subscribe to the WTF bonus feed, "The Full Maron," for access to The Friday Show and other bonus material.

In this episode, Stuart and Jacob dive into the gritty underworld of the "French Connection" franchise, comparing the original 1971 classic with its 1975 sequel and the lesser-known 1986 made-for-TV pilot movie, "Popeye Doyle." They explore the evolution of the Jimmy "Popeye" Doyle, portrayed by Gene Hackman, and how his journey shifts from a hard-nosed detective in New York to a fish-out-of-water in France. Is this characterization even right for Hackman? And what of Roy Scheider's character keeping him grounded? What of Hershey's chocolate? But ultimately, what makes the original film a landmark in neo-noir cinema, and how does the sequel falter in its execution? Or do they even care for either of these movies to begin with? And then there's "Popeye Doyle," a film (can we even call it a film?) that raises more questions than it answers.Also featured in this episode are thoughts on Gene Hackman's diverse career and sad passing, a quiz about his iconic roles, Stuart's thoughts on the recent "Sinners", and a debate on the merits of director's cuts.

Roy Scheider stars alongside Dorian Harewood, Ray Wise, Clint Howard, and a little girl named after a JAWS character in 1998's direct-to-video action movie EVASIVE ACTION!

This week, Roy Scheider plays a small but pivotal supporting role in David Cronenberg's cult classic, NAKED LUNCH! Adapted from the novel by William S. Burroughs, Scheider stars alongside Peter Weller, Judy Davis, Ian Holm, and more in what may be the strangest and one of the last great movie of his career.

A standard college melodrama makes a hard-right turn into an anti-abortion screed in a move that's almost as bizarre as Kirk Cameron's horrible Southern accent. We welcome back Alana Phelan to the show with a movie she really loved as a kid, but viewing it as an adult, a few things suddenly stand out. Starring Kirk Cameron, Jamie Gertz, Roy Scheider, and Tim Quill. Written and directed by Douglass Day Stewart.   Content warning: this episode discusses rape, abortion, and general sexual topics.   The Indiegogo link to Alana and Kevin's book: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/for-hire-the-price-of-fame/#/

All of the nearly three hundred episodes we've done so far have been enthusiastic celebrations of artists whose work we admire so greatly that we had to invent a podcast to talk about it. But in this very strange episode, we talk about a film so awful in so many ways that we are baffled by how it came from the same man who directed four unquestionable masterpieces in a row. The Rainmaker (1997) is–and we mean this without irony–a fascinating film that does everything that films like The Conversation and The Godfather Part II avoid. It works on paper: there's Coppola, of course, but also a bestseller as its source material, Matt Damon, Claire Danes, Mickey Roarke, Danny DeVito, Jon Voight, Danny Glover, and (inexplicably) Roy Scheider. But even Sheriff Brody can't kill this beast. Rather than offer a litany of complaints, we talk about the concept of a “shadow movie”: the movie that could have been, the one lurking beneath the film we actually see. This is the only episode in which we don't follow our usual three-part structure, because we didn't know if we'd be releasing this one. But we think that we can learn more about films from even one as terrible as this. If you're interested in the source for Coppola's film, you can find the novel here.

EPISODE 71 - “STEVE & NAN's FAVORITE CLASSIC FILMS OF THE 1970s” - 1/20/2024 The 1970s was a decade that saw the rise of the auteur. Filmmakers like Scorsese, Coppola, Cassavetes, Altman, Lumet, and DePalma hit their stride and brought to the screen their specific vision and stylized films. It was a very experimental era where boundaries were pushed and once-taboo topics were explored. It became a creative high point and gave us some iconic movies. This week, Steve And Nan take look at some of their favorite films of the 1970s.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Terrance Malick and the Examined Life (2024), by Martin Woessner;  Films of the 1970s (2017), by Jurgen Muller; Hollywood's Last Golden Age: Politics, Society, and the Seventies Film in America (2012), by Jonathan Kirshner; How the Sex, Drugs, and Rock-n-Roll Generation Saved Hollywood (1998), by Peter Biskind; Picture Shows: The Life and Films of Peter Bogdonavich (1992), by Andrew Yule; “Jane Fonda on Klute,” July 18, 2019, The Criterion Collection;  TCM.com; IMDBPro.com; IBDB.com; Wikipedia.com; Movies Mentioned:  Smile (1975), starring Bruce Dern, Barbara Feldon, Michael Kidd, Nicholas Pryor, Annette O'Toole, Joan Prather, Melanie Griffith, Geoffrey Lewis, Maria O'Brien, Colleen Camp, Eric Shea, Denise Nickerson, and Titos Vandsis; Klute (1971), starring Jane Fonda, Donald Sutherland, Roy Scheider, Dorothy Tristan, Charles Cioffi, Jean Stapleton, Rita Gam, and Vivian Nathan; Badlands (1973), starring Martin Sheen, Sissy Spacek, Warren Oates, Garry Littlejohn, Alan Vint, and John Womack; The Sting (1973), starring Paul Newman, Robert Redford, Robert Saw, Robert Earl Jones, Charles Durning, Ray Walston, Charles Dierkop, Harold Gould, Sally Kellerman, and Eileen Brennan; The Last Picture Show (1971), starring Timothy Bottoms, Cybill Shepherd, Jeff Bridges, Ellen Burstyn, Ben Johnson, Cloris Leachman, Eileen Brennan, Clu Gulager, Sam Bottoms, Sharon Taggart, Randy Quad, and Bill Thurman; A Little Romance (1979), staring Laurence Olivier, Diane Lane, Thelonious Bernard, Arthur Hill, Sally Kellerman, Broderick Crawford, David Dukes, Andrew Duncan, and Claudette Sutherland; --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.

It's Showtime, Folks! Returning Movie Club champions Gala Avary (The Gala Show, Video Archives Podcast) & Erik Clapp (the mighty Cinema Force & EC Films) join me to talk all things ALL THAT JAZZ, Bob Fosse's groundbreaking autobiographical masterpiece.  Roy Scheider is Joe Gideon (AKA Bob Fosse) who can't get a handle on his all-consuming workaholism, brutal perfectionism, constant philandering, incessant smoking, daily drinking and hourly pill-popping. He's also working all day on a new musical and late into each night on a new film. What could go wrong?
