Editor - Eric Kissack, ACE THE STUDIO editor Eric Kissack began journey his journey with series co-creator and star, Seth Rogen, on the Sasha Baron Cohen film, Bruno. From there their partnership would continue, spanning projects like Sausage Party, Black Monday and others. For their current project, they would be working closer than ever before, as Seth's vision for THE STUDIO necessitated Eric's presence on set, fostering a tighter creative process that brought editorial not only on location, but into aspects of prouction. THE STUDIO tells the story of Matt Remick, the newly appointed head of the floundering film production company Continental Studios. A self-described cinephile, Matt struggles to balance Continental's corporate aims in an increasingly IP-driven entertainment landscape with his own ambition to produce quality films.

THE SUBSTANCE spaltet die Film-Welt. Ist der Body-Horror wirklich nur ein plumper Versuch, die vom Schönheitswahn getriebene Gesellschaft aufs Korn zu nehmen oder steckt mehr dahinter?

Außerdem hat Jan - wie es sich gehört - eine Serie mitgebracht: Auf Apple TV+ läuft derzeit DISCLAIMER. Eine Serie, hinter der der bekannte mexikanische Filmemacher Alfonso Cuarón steckt. Mit Cate Blanchett, Kevin Kline und Sasha Baron Cohen ist diese Serie zudem außerordentlich gut besetzt. Was kann da also schon schief gehen?Viel Spaß!

Democrats are increasingly worried as new poll numbers show Donald Trump winning on November 5, 2024. Part of the reason for his expected win stems from the entry of RFK Junior into the race for the presidency. A third-party candidate spells trouble for the left, especially a candidate like RFK. As such Democrats are organizing, a full-on assault against Robert F Kennedy, and his campaign… and it starts either the ladies in ‘The View''. I have the details. Meanwhile, MSNBC is getting very worried about the success of Donald Trump with the Christian community. His recent foray into Bible, selling with Lee Greenwood, has them quite nearly apoplectic. But, is there any doubt that Trump would double down on religion at a time when the left seems to be doing the exact opposite? I explain In a shocking shock, yet not shocking, move out of California the state's retirement program is going anti-woke! CALPERS is siding with Nelson Peltz, the billionaire activist investor who is taking on Bob Iger's management plan at Disney. Pelts represents the opposite of politically correct which is why it's stunning. The CALPERS is willing to vote with him. Capitalism, as I say, should not be political. Investors know what's best for Disney. And it's probably not smart business to cast the rumored pic for the new lead to replace Johnny Depp, in “Pirates of the Caribbean .” It's been reported that Disney is doing a remake of ‘Pirates of the Caribbean' with the intent on of focusing on the incredible story of Anne Bonney, an Irish woman from Country Cork, Ireland that was a notorious pirate in the 1700s in the Caribbean. But the actress is not Irish. Will this film flop the way Indiana Jones the Little Mermaid, Ant-man and the wasp did in 2023?? Not if if Nelson Peltz has anything to do with it. One day ahead of the critical, Disney vote, I explain. Meanwhile, who knew P. Diddy was such a family man? He's pulling out all the stops, trying to remake his image, amid multiple lawsuits and the feds raiding his two homes. The news comes as his financial picture appears less than steady. In other Hollywood news, a musician who has become rather notorious for her alleged parties is Lizzo. Lizzo claims she's quitting the business. In a shocking post on Instagram, on Friday, the artist announced, “I quit”. Did she? Finally, Rebel Wilson is going nuclear on Sasha Baron Cohen - we've got details. Is this another example of Hollywood gone wild? See you here — LIVE!Support the show: https://trishregan.shop/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We open with the news Kate Middleton is having treatment for cancer and how Em was right in her assumptions that we shouldn't be speculating about BBL's and the like. Especially when a woman is undergoing a medical treatment that we don't have all the information on.

Happy New Year, everyone! Hope you're back rested and energized for 2024! We are kicking off new beginnings with an old friend…the prolific film and television producer, Monica Levinson. Some of her impressive credits include BORAT, BRUNO, ZOOLANDER, DODGEBALL, Larry David's CLEAR HISTORY, Tara Miele's WANDER DARKLY, David Oyelowo's THE WATER MAN and Aaron Sorkin's THE TRIAL OF THE CHICAGO 7. Starting her career in broadcast news in her hometown of Washington, D.C., Monica transitioned into narrative storytelling by working with visionary directors including Alan J. Pakula and Sidney Lumet. She most recently produced OLD DADS, the Netflix comedy written, directed and starring Bill Burr which did really well on the platform when it dropped last October. On top of a busy producing career, she is also an executive board member of AMPAS, PGA, DGA, and on the leadership team for the Women's Production Society. Mentorship is very important to her and she certainly walks the walk. I count myself lucky to know her as an ally and a mentor. She's constantly giving back and she drops lots of gems during out chat, such as: Jobs that aren't exactly what you want to be doing can provide a foundation for the jobs you want Filmmaking is a collaboration - be prepared but remember you're not alone Working in production is still creative! Happy listening! -cg

Jena talks about her new book “Not Funny: Essays on Life, Comedy, Culture, Et Cetera,” what long form improv taught her, how Chicago wasn't such a fan of hers (but NYC was), an incident with an interview where she was taken very out of context and made to look bad and forever deemed “The Muse of Mediocrity." Jena and Carmen also compare their experiences at the Edinburgh Festival. Finally, Jena talks about working with Sasha Baron Cohen on the Borat sequel as well as her time on Letterman. Oh, and there's also a really fun technical glitch!
Welcome back listeners! This week my mom and I have another in-studio guest to discuss the Sasha Baron Cohen film, Borat! Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan. We had a great discussion and many different opinions on this movie. Enjoy!
Whether it's Sean Connery, Roger Moore or others portraying James Bond, or Tom Cruise as Ethan Hunt in the "Mission: Impossible" film series, we find ourselves sucked into the world of espionage thanks to the spy genre of television shows and movies. In this week's episode of Streamed & Screened, hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz have a brief discussion of the genre to set up a conversation with Guy Pearce, the star of "Spy Among Friends," a limited series available now on MGM+. Read more: Guy Pearce, Damian Lewis ponder betrayal with 'Spy Among Friends' About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is now the editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, a senior producer for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. Episode transcript Note: The following transcript was generated by Podium.page and may contain misspellings and other inaccuracies as it was generated automatically: 0:00:03Welcome everyone to another episode of streamed and screened in an entertainment podcast about movies and TV from Lee Enterprises. I'm Terry Lipshetz, a senior producer at Lee and cohost of the program with Bruce Miller, editor of the Sioux City Journal and a longtime entertainment reporter. Bruce, I I wanna pass you a note. I've got some secrets. Do you have any secrets? Can you share anything? Yeah. Send me a text. Okay? That might be the best. 0:00:28In the old days, you know, spies were so much different because they would sit on a park bench and they pass an envelope between each other. Right? Right? Now it's like we're hacking into systems and we're going to we always you notice how they always have that clock that counts down until the file is uploaded, and it's like, oh, is it gonna happen? Is it gonna happen? Well, there, all you had to worry about was did somebody grab the envelope or are you just letting it go? So it is a different world. 0:00:57And there's a new mini series or limited series, whatever you wanna call it, that has been airing in Great Britain already, and it got huge reviews. They loved it over there. It's called a spy among friends. And we're getting it now on MGM Plus. And it is the the sort of true story of Kim Philby. You probably have never heard of Kim Philby at all. But he was a traitor to Great Britain. He was a spy, but he was getting information from Russia. And when they found out that he was defecting to Russia, they sent his friend to try and talk to him about all of this. And, like, would you keep this information? I don't know how I could ever be a spy because I talk too much. And I think I I would tell too much. But that your your best friend could not guess that you were gonna be a traitor. And, you know, wouldn't you have dropped some kind of message about this? I find that just really hard to believe. Yeah. But but yeah. And that was a big scandal in the sixties. And people remember the name Kim Philby because he was this trader who went to Russia. And he was very well known. Today, it doesn't graze the radar. People really don't know who he is, or who his friends were. 0:02:17But the film, which kind of looks at the class system that's very popular in Great Britain, tries to explain all of that by that because there was a group of young man who thought that they were if you will, better than other people because they went to the right schools, they had the right majors, they had the right connections, their parents were probably somebody. And as Damian Lewis says, they dabbled in communism. And so they thought that this was kind of a cool thing that we could do, and they wouldn't be caught for anything like this. Well, Kim Philby, didn't just dabble. He was doing a little bit more with all of that. And I got a chance to talk to Guy Pierce who plays Kim and he was talking about acting acting and acting as a spy. How much acting is involved with all of that? Do you really Do you feel you need to pretend all the time? And he said this class system is something that kind of it didn't matter. You didn't have to do that because they just accepted whatever you were doing was just temporary, and they were allowed to do that. And he and the the creator of the series, Alexander Carey, talk about how this is kind of important again today. Because we're seeing a class system that's being created in just all parts of the world, where some people think they're above the law, and they don't have to worry about consequences. And then others who don't don't seem to be able to catch a break no matter what. That's fascinating. 0:04:00What's your general thought on on spy movies and TV shows in general? Do you do you enjoy them? Do you get sucked in? Oh, you know it. I I it's strange how something like James Bond has changed so drastically. Because in those early days, you know, with Sean Connery, maybe Roger Moore, who didn't they did a lot of things that was they they were just conversational. That's how they got their information. And then they started getting all those toys. And then they started having gadgets and, you know, I mean, come on. Where do you find all this stuff? And how would you be able to create all this? And then you have all these kind of inched people. How do you keep anything from somebody else that they wouldn't know? Today, it's so over the top. Look at how, you know, it takes several years for somebody like Tom Cruise to make one of his spy films. So it's a it's a different game. I think it's changed. But I think they suck you in all the time because you always wonder That was the bad guy. I'm not really sure I know who the bad guy is. 0:05:06Did you see the spy a couple years ago. That was the one. It starred Sasha Baron Cohen, you know, who everybody knows is Borr at, but he did a really serious take He played Eli Cohen, who's a Israeli, and he was spying in the nineteen sixties. And ultimately was caught, but it was the the true life story and it was a very serious role for him. But it was a real fascinating look into into espionage. 0:05:36Could you be a spy? I thought about it. I I think I could. Really? Yeah. I don't know how you do that in school, where you say, alright, I'd like to go on the spy track, please. Could I please take those classes that are necessary for that? I I couldn't. I know I couldn't. Because the I mean, I can keep a secret, but I don't think I could like the Americans, I don't know I could do what they did, where you just suddenly assume new identities and live among people for years, and then you're kind of trying to get a little bit of information out to the others. I don't know that I could do that. At some point, I would break. 0:06:12And I think where they always go wrong with these kinds of films is they have families. Right. And I think a true spy has no connections. That's why you see James Bond as such a good spy. Because he always seems to be a loner. Once they get him with somebody, then it becomes, uh-oh, I've got to worry about somebody killing this person. You know, to get to me. So if you're as bi, you should be a loner. It never worked out well for for James Bond in those movies because he would he would either meet someone and they would end up dead or they would end up turning on him. 0:06:51Well, could you imagine that this day if you were, like, googling pussy galore, I think it's a reminder. I think it's a reminder. You know, they in when that movie became out, they released trading cards for that movie. Did you say that? No. Because I I wasn't born back numbers, but but they changed the name of that character to Kitty Galore because we couldn't we couldn't go that. It's a little too dirty for the kids back in the sixties. So, yeah, that that was always kind of fun, Goldfinger. But, yeah, I I don't know if I could be a spy. 0:07:29Like, it it always sounds cool, but then you think about, well, you got all these crazy secrets. You can't settle down with the family. Somebody's gonna keep a secret in your own house. If you get kids, come on. They don't have work. They do. Right? 0:07:43I always wonder too when watching things like mission impossible. You know, that that that this recording will self destruct in ten seconds. But it it goes up in flames. Nobody notices that. Nobody sees this, like, flaming package that's sitting next to you on the train and and it does it not set off as smoke alarm? 0:08:02You know, for many years, studios would send out DVDs of their films. And they would disintegrate. I mean, after you had watched it once, you couldn't watch it again. And they always said, well, that's how they should have done that stuff. Because a tape recorder that's burning yeah. That's not gonna happen. Not a problem. That might that might raise a couple of red flags. 0:08:25Well, and you could never rerun. You know, you never could go back and look at a scene again. You saw once. It's on your computer. That's it. It's done. Now you can go back to screening lengths and go back and see things if you wanna look at the more than once. 0:08:39But yeah. So the spy world? No. The the best best thing about me is I couldn't remember anything because I think I've learned so much in my lifetime. There's so much crap in my head. That we have to we have to empty the trash at some point to try and remember these things. So if you put me under oath and had a lie detector and everything hooked up, I'd be good because I couldn't remember a darn thing that you'd told me. 0:09:04Does did Guy Pierce talk about at all? Like, how he how he researched for this. Yes. You're using. He did. And and that's that's in the interview. I want you to listen to the interview, you know, talk to some of the kind of research he did. And how it would kind of work for him? How he would be as a if he could be a spy? So there's a lot of interesting things there. I think you should unpack it. It's not that long. 0:09:29We have Guy Pierce and Alexander Carey talking about a spy among friends. Can a spy really have a friend? I think I think friendship is the main currency of of spies. I think that I think I think I mean, it's a good question because on one side of the relationship, yes, that question is pertinent. On the other one, it's pertinent in a different in completely the opposite way. Yeah. It it just it struck me as if I were a spy, I would not be friendly with anybody. I would just let it go. But there also is an element of acting that's involved. And Guy, would you make a good spy? Well, look, I I may make a good spy, you know, on the surface, but I mean, of course, I can work as an actor on screen but it's never a life or death situation. I don't know how I'd I don't know how if I've got the Hutzpa to to, you know, act as well when I know that there are lives or countries or at stake. So probably not, I think, is the answer. 0:10:40How does spies operate today when there's just so many ways that the truth could come out? Is it a a whole different world and what? Because the the sixties is kind of a a a real romantic period at at least for spies. Well, you're I think in the sixties, human intelligence, in other words, human to human getting information in sort of bars and on park benches and all the rest of it was a reality. And and was the the the the the main way of of getting and passing information these days. There's a lot more of sort of cyber espionage and all the rest of it. And I think you'll find that in various intelligence agencies. There are also still two factions. You know, there's the there's the one that goes, well, human intelligence is really the only the way that you're gonna get the definitive stuff or the stuff that's gonna be, you know, keep on giving. And then there are people who are gonna go, no. Let's just put a drone up. So so So, you know, they're very different these days. But Yeah. But that's the friendship thing. The friendship thing is important for a spy. Yeah. It doesn't seem as much fun, but maybe I'm wrong, never been a spy, can't can't weigh in. 0:11:52Guy, how much did you read about him before you actually started doing this? Did you know much about him or not? I didn't know a lot. No. I mean, I'd seen a couple of films that had been made and I'd seen a documentary once about the Cambridge five. So I didn't know a lot. I knew of Kim Filby, of course, but knew no detail about about him really and certainly knew nothing about this relation it between he and Nicholas Elliott. 0:12:17I read a number of books before we started and through the course of making the show. One in particular, I think, was a was a helpful piece, which was written by Eleanor, his third wife, his American wife, the wife that he was with in Beirut when he when he left. She wrote a book that that that looked at some of the letters between the two of them, you know, that published the letters between the two of them through that time. So there was something personal and human about the way she wrote. And so that was an interesting little way in for me into into Filby. But, yeah, I read I read bits and pieces of all sorts of things before we started. But of course, I always would would come back to the the script. 0:13:07And at a certain point, I find I have to sort of let the let the research material go. Were there things you could relate to? And did you like him at all or not? I never know the answer to the liking question because whilst making I'm so in I'm so embedded in into him that I lose myself in a way. So it's not necessarily that I have then have an opinion of him. I'm I'm I'm so sort of, yeah, lost in trying to just become and understand him. I think the bigger question is is is whether I understand him and and, you know, I'm that's what I'm searching to do through the process and and, you know, you can probably only understand any character, you know, this much at the best of times when you're dealing with someone like Philby, you can probably only understand him this this much because he's a mystery to everybody. So it was a complex and challenging process. Yeah. Well, thank you. Both it's been so exciting to watch this unfold. And I'm just playing dumb through the whole thing. I'm not I'm not looking ahead to find out anything. I don't wanna know anything, but it is fascinating. It's a a different world, a different time. So thank you so much. Thank you very much. Thanks, Bruce. Nice to meet you. Alright, Bruce. Thanks for that interview. A fascinating discussion there. 0:14:37Did you get to talk to anybody else from that Phils from that series. Who is who plays the friend that, you know, has to try and talk to this Kim Philsby. I did get to talk to him. And I do have a story Maybe you can add a link to this. And if you don't wanna read, you'll see some more stuff from him about this whole project. But it's a six part limited series on MGM plus. And, Eric, could you do anything this next week that I worry about? I'll know you're a spy. Sounds good, Bruce. So we'll have a link to that article in the show notes of this episode. And otherwise, we will see you next week with another episode of streamed and screamed. Have a great one.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The rest of us were only too happy to derail Dan's well-thought out hitchhiker themed week in order to produce a hastily assembled and confused tribute of sorts to the death of Queen Elizabeth II, starting with a discussion of the Top 5 Queens. BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY (2018) is a biopic of Freddie Mercury (Rami Malek), charting his journey from talented and ambitious baggage handler Farrokh Bulsara in the 1970's to frontman of arena rock band Queen, culminating in a recreation of their triumphant and iconic 1985 Live Aid performance. Paced like a Wikipedia plot summary this movie's biggest crime is its inauthenticity: both its factual inaccuracy but more importantly it never feels very real and consequently I never felt I knew Freddie Mercury better after having watched it. Malek's excessive performance is so distracting I couldn't work out if he was doing a caricature or simply trying to keep his prosthetic teeth in, and a broad and formulaic story never seems to have anything interesting at all to say about race, LGBTQ+ lifestyles or the experience of having HIV in the 1980's during the height of the AIDS crisis , territory covered much better by PRIDE or the British mini-series IT'S A SIN. It's impossible not to mention an excruciating cameo from Mike Myers as a fictional embodiment of Queen's critics, an EMI executive of limited artistic vision who thinks the track from which the movie bears its name is too long, composed of nonsensical words and that teenagers will never bang their heads to in a car. Get it? Because that is the exact thing WAYNE'S WORLD did! If the best part for you was the recreation of the Live Aid performance where you can enjoy Malek pretending to be Freddie and lip syncing in front of the kind of weird CGI crowd you'd usually find in a video game just watch the f*cking original concert. It's not really a surprise this one is such a mess. Sasha Baron Cohen was attached to the project for a long time but dropped out, objecting to what he saw as the sanitisation of Freddie's story by the producers, in particular I suspect Brian May and Roger Taylor who are portrayed as the most responsible members of the group and consequently are boring nonentities. Director Brian Singer was fired part way into filming which might have been because he rarely showed up to set leaving cinematographer Newton Thomas Sigel in charge much of the time, or may have had something to do with the tsunami of sexual misconduct allegations which were heading his way, and the last third of filming and all the post production were completed by Dexter Fletcher (ROCKETMAN). In the interests of balance I should probably say that not all of the Bad Dads felt the same way - in fact angrily so in some cases - and that the movie won several Oscars, Malek's performance in particular drawing praise, while a win for Best Achievement in Film Editing completely redefines the meaning of the words "Best", "Achievement" and "Editing". I can honestly say I've never seen a microphone get an origin story before, so there is that. KING ROLLO is another David McKee creation, the man-child sovereign of an unspecified kingdom who is enraged when his resident Magician reads his comic first and then ignores his dinner guest Queen Gwen before they are all deposed in a violent, bloodthirsty revolution.We love to hear from our listeners!
