EPISODE 78 - “FILM NOIR - Part 1 - WHAT IS NOIR?” - 3/10/2025 Have you ever wondered what exactly is film noir? TCM's EDDIE MULLER describes it this way: “Film Noir is all about treachery, deceit, and paranoia. You're never quite sure what is going on, who you can trust, or what dreadful pitfall waits around the corner.” This dark and twisted film genre popped up after WWII as a quiet cynicism began to creep into the national consciousness. In film noir, there is always an underbelly of darkness that comes out to play. And within the darkness, the shadows, and the neon lights, lie many stories of crime, dishonesty, adultery, murder, and mayhem. This week, we present the first in a special three-part series that delves into the darkest of genres where crooked cops, gangsters, torch singers, barflies, and other seedy character's live, love and kill. Join us as we discuss Film Noir! SHOW NOTES: Sources: Film Noir (2017), by Alian Silver & James Ursini; Into the Darkness: The Hidden World of Film Noir 1941-1959 (2016), by Mark A.

Hang onto your slipcases because Blake Howard (One Heat Minute Productions) and special guest Scout Tafoya (author of The Black Book: An Anthony Mann Reader) collaborate to dissect CRITERION COLLECTION physical media releases.Winchester '73Noirish shadows spread across the frontier in this landmark western, the first of the celebrated collaborations between director Anthony Mann and actor James Stewart that redefined the genre with their moral and psychological intensity. Beginning his midcareer transition into increasingly edgy roles, Stewart portrays an avenging sharpshooter whose stolen rifle becomes a harbinger of death as it is passed from one doomed hand to the next. Featuring a stellar cast that includes a touching Shelley Winters, a sensationally sleazy Dan Duryea, and a pre-stardom Rock Hudson, this elemental tale of violence begetting violence broke new ground with its evocation of the West as a no-man's-land of antiheroes and villains.4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew 4K digital restoration, undertaken by Universal Pictures in collaboration with The Film Foundation, with uncompressed monaural soundtrackOne 4K UHD disc of the film and one Blu-ray with the film and special featuresAudio commentary featuring actor James Stewart and film historian Paul LindenschmidtNew interview with film programmer Adam Piron on the portrayal of Native Americans in the western genreForces of Nature: Anthony Mann at Universal, a program on a key chapter in the director's careerLux Radio Theatre adaptation of the film from 1951TrailerEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingPlus: An essay by critic Imogen Sara SmithNew cover by Gregory ManchessScout Tafoya - Buy THE BLACK BOOK hereScout Tafoya is a film critic, video essayist, filmmaker, and author of Cinemaphagy: On The Psychedelic Classical Form of Tobe Hooper, the first book-length critical study of the director of "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre."

On the Saturday February 1, 2025 edition of The Richard Crouse Show we’ll meet Giacomo Gianniotti. He starred for seven seasons as “Dr. Andrew DeLuca” on ABC’s hit drama Grey’s Anatomy and has worked with everyone from Shelley Winters and Susan Sarandon to Zoe Saldana and Dustin Hoffman. Born in Rome, but raised in Canada, he works in both Italian and English and recently played the lead role in Netflix’s Italian mini-series “Deceitful Love.” Today we talk about some of that, and the second season of his new show “Wild Cards,” which can be seen on CBC and CBC Gem. He plays Cole Ellis, a demoted cop who arrests Max Mitchell, a transient con woman played by “Riverdale’s” Vanessa Mason. While in custody and being held at the station, she helps him solve another crime. The pair are offered an opportunity at redemption – Ellis a chance to get back his detective badge, and Max a chance to stay out of jail – they just have to pair up and work together. Then we get to know Timothy Caulfield. He is a university professor who specializes in legal, policy and ethical issues in medical research, and is also a best-selling author of books like “Is Gwyneth Paltrow Wrong About Everything?: When Celebrity Culture and Science Clash.” He joins me later in the show to talk about his latest book “The Certainty Illusion: What You Don't Know and Why It Matters.” It's a fascinating read that asks the question, “In a world where there is so much conflicting information about how we are supposed to live, what can we really know?”
Mark and John talk about the 1979 television film Elvis. Directed by John Carpenter, and starring Kurt Russell, Season Hubley, Shelley Winters and a lot of hip thrusts, the biopic tells the story of how Elvis Presley became one of the biggest musical superstars ever. In this episode, they also talk about Kurt Russell's dancing, lip-syncing, and the biopic genre. Enjoy!

Our first round of Studios Year by Year comes to an end with these Universal 1948 movies: A Woman's Vengeance (directed by Zoltan Korda with a screenplay by Aldous Huxley, based on his short story "The Gioconda Smile") and Larceny (directed by George Sherman). Huxley's philosophical concerns add unexpected dimensions to familiar Gothic tropes and gives great material to Charles Boyer and Ann Blyth, while Cedric Hardwicke deals with Jessica Tandy. In the second half of our double bill, John Payne's con man tries his best to deal with Shelley Winters in honey badger mode (he's the honey and the bees).

Will Franky and His Pals find the gold? Will they learn the ways of love? Will Drak quench his thirst for human blood? Just how explosive is Franky's flatulence?

Book Vs. Movie: The Night of the HunterThe 1953 Novel Vs. the 1955 Classic MovieDavis Grubb's 1953 novel *The Night of the Hunter* and its 1955 film adaptation by Charles Laughton offer haunting interpretations of a sinister preacher, Harry Powell, and two children fleeing him. The novel delves deeper into Powell's twisted morality and religious fanaticism. At the same time, the film, featuring Robert Mitchum, presents him as a symbolic figure of evil with striking visual elements, including his "LOVE" and "HATE" tattoos. The book maintains a grounded, psychological tone, while the movie employs a surreal, expressionist style to illustrate the battle between good and evil. Which version did we (the Margos) prefer? Have a listen to find out. In this ep, the Margos discuss:The creepy origin story of the book.Charles Laughton's excellent direction and why he never helmed a picture again. The differences between the novel and the 1955 film.

The book maintains a grounded, psychological tone, while the movie employs a surreal, expressionist style to illustrate the battle between good and evil. Which version did we (the Margos) prefer?

EPISODE 55 - “Favorite Classic Films of the 1950s ” - 09/30/2024 ** This episode is sponsored brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/BENEATH and get on your way to being your best self.” ** The 1950s was a real transitional decade for classic films. As we got further away from WW2, and the Cold War began to rise up prominently, there was a cynicism across the land that influenced the content of many Hollywood movies. Films took on a grittier, more realistic feel, and the subject matters were darker and more controversial. It was the decade that sparked masterpieces like “Sunset Boulevard,” “All About Eve,” “From Here To Eternity,” “Cat On A Hot Tin Roof,” “A Streetcar Named Desire,” “Anatomy of a Murder,” “ Strangers on a Train,” “Shane,” and “High Noon.” Listen as Steve and Nan talk about some special 1950s films that inspire them. SHOW NOTES: Sources: TCM.com; IMDBPro.com; Wikipedia.com; NewYorkTimes.com RogerEbert.com Movies Mentioned: No Man of Her Own (1950), starring Barbara Stanwyck, John Lund, and Richard Denning; In A Lonely Place (1950), starring Humphrey Bogart and Gloria Grahame; A Place In The Sun (1951), starring Montgomery Cliff, Elizabeth Taylor, and Shelley Winters; Pick Up On South Street (1953), starring Richard Widmark, Jean Peters, Thelma Ritter, and Richard Kiley; Witness For the Prosecution (1957), starring Charles Laughton, Tyrone Power, Marlene Dietrich, and Elsa Lanchester; A Face In The Crowd (1957), starring Andy Griffith, Patricia Neal, Lee Remick, Walter Matthau, and Anthony Franciosa; Big Country (1958), starring Gregory Peck, Jean Simmons, Carroll Baker, Burl Ives, Charles Bickford and Charlton Heston; Indiscreet (1959), starring Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman; --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.

In “It's A Wonderful Life,” BEULAH BONDI played the most loving mother to JAMES STEWART. Ma Bailey is the epitome of sweetness, kindness, and supportiveness so it's quite shocking when we meet the Ma Bailey who would have existed had George Bailey not been born. She's cold, bitter, and unkind. It gives Bondi the wonderful opportunity to play two versions of the same character, which she does flawlessly. So to celebrate Mother's Day, Nan and Steve are taking a page from Bondi's playbook as they discuss the good and bad mothers of classic cinema.

EPISODE 25 - “Paul Douglas: Star of the Month” - 03/04/2024 In a new feature, we are highlighting a “Star of the Month” where we will dive into the life, career, and legacy of a single performer. To kick things off in this episode, we'll be discussing the great PAUL DOUGLAS. You may not know his name, but you certainly know his face. With his somewhat craggy mug that usually sported a hang-dog look, he made a career at playing gruff, tough guys who were usually softies underneath, as he does so perfectly as LINDA DARNELL's rough-around-the-edges businessman husband in “A Letter To Three Wives” (1949). So listen in and learn about this most excellent actor.

"Someday I'm going to snap off your poison head." Odds Against Tomorrow (1959) directed by Robert Wise and starring Harry Belafonte, Robert Ryan, Shelley Winters, Ed Begley, Gloria Grahame, Kim Hamilton and Mae Barnes. Next Time: In Cold Blood (1967)
Welcome to It's A Wonderful Podcast!! A bold, in-your-face, bleak and hugely significant inclusion into the late Film Noir cycle on this week's main show as Morgan and Jeannine discuss the charisma of grey characters, heists gone wrong, how Gloria Grahame is able to totally steal any movie, and racial tension in Robert Wise's ODDS AGAINST TOMORROW (1959) starring Harry Belafonte, Robert Ryan, Shelley Winters, Ed Begely & Gloria Grahame! Mixing traditional Noir elements with a charming brash directness that would dominate independent US movies in the 60s, this movie is the only time you'll see a Black leading man in the classic Noir cycle, and is perhaps Belafonte's greatest role!

He had the head of a camel and the neck of a crocodile, but back in 1977, the one thing Pete's Dragon didn't have was much love from the critics. For all its star power, courtesy of Helen Reddy, Shelley Winters, Jim Dale, Red Buttons, and Mickey Rooney, the Disney live-action-meets-animated adventure did only flittering box office. But now, decades later, was the movie as misunderstood as Pete? How does the Oscar-nominated ballad “Candle on the Water” hold up against other Disney songs? And why was this flick a childhood favorite of (co-host) Brian's? The Old Roommates review “every little piece” of this boy-meets-dragon fantasy through their middle-aged lens.

Jackie and Greg take a nocturnal trip down the river of dreams for Charles Laughton's THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER from 1955. Topics of discussion include the film's storybook feel, Robert Mitchum's much-copied villain, Laughton's inspirations for the film, and why it stands as a truly original piece of cinema all these years later.#63 on Sight & Sound's 2012 "The 100 Greatest Films of All Time" list.https://www.bfi.org.uk/sight-and-sound/polls/greatest-films-all-time-2012#25 on Sight & Sound's 2022 "The Greatest Films of All Time" list. https://www.bfi.org.uk/sight-and-sound/greatest-films-all-timeCheck us out on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sceneandheardpodCheck us out at our official website: https://www.sceneandheardpod.comJoin our weekly film club: https://www.instagram.com/arroyofilmclubJP Instagram/Twitter: jacpostajGK Instagram: gkleinschmidtGraphic Design: Molly PintoMusic: Andrew CoxEditing: Asa ParsonsGet in touch at hello@sceneandheardpod.comSupport the showSupport the show on Patreon: patreon.com/SceneandHeardPodorSubscribe just to get access to our bonus episodes: buzzsprout.com/1905508/subscribe

Book Vs. Movie: "The Poseidon Adventure" (1972)(The Margos are taking this week off for the holidays. Please enjoy this 2019 replay!)At Book Vs. Movie, whenever people say, "Duh--the book is always better than the movie!" the Margos would say, "Yeah--have you ever read Jaws?" Well, now we have another book-to-movie adaptation that features a horrible, racist, sexist, homophobic, and misogynistic novel that became a fun hit film. Sportswriter Paul Gallico helped many stories become excellent films, including Pride of the Yankees, The Snow Goose, and the Musical Stage Carnival! He wrote over 40 books, numerous short stories, and dozens of T.V. and movie scripts. He began his career working for the New York Daily News sports desk and later became a prolific travel writer, spending 10,000 miles on the road in the U.S. for Reader's Digest. In 1969, he published The Poseidon Adventure to little fanfare. The tale of a wayward ship sunk while traveling to Africa features some of the most loathsome characters we have ever had the displeasure of reading. (The audiobook featuring narration by actor Dylan Baker makes it slightly more palatable.)Trigger warning: This story features a character being sexually assaulted who then comforts her attacker and wishes she was pregnant by him. (Seriously!) The movie by producer Irwin Allen and director Ronald Neame became an instant classic that began a slate of many disaster films in the 1970s. It would become the highest-grossing film of 1973, grossing over $125 million worldwide. It won an Academy Award for Best Special Effects and best original song "The Morning After." Our lead actor is Gene Hackman as Reverand Frank Scott, a renegade preacher who turns into a hero for the passengers of the S.S. Poseidon (partly filmed on the RMS Queen Mary.. At the time, he was a hot property after the success of The French Connection, and his performance was very passionate. Co-star Shelley Winters won the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of Belle Rosen--a middle-aged swimmer who gives her life to protect the survivors. (Spoiler!) Please listen to find out our real feelings between the book & movie, as this one will go down as one of our biggest takedowns of a horrible piece of work. In this ep, the Margos discuss:The writing career of Paul GallicoHow genuinely terrible this book is and why you should not read it.The special effects of the film and how it changed disaster films of the futureThe cast: Gene Hackman (Reverand Frank Scott,) Ernest Borgnine (Mike Rogo,) Red Buttons (James Martin,) Carol Lynley (Nonnie Parry,) Roddy McDowell (Acres,) Stella Stevens (Linda Rogo,) Shelley Winters (Belle Rosen,) Jack Albertson (Manny Rosen,) Pamela Sue Martin (Susan Shelby,) Eric Shea (Robin Shelby,) and Leslie Nielsen (Captain Harrison)Clips used:The Poseidon Adventure trailerA tidal wave hits the shitThe immediate aftermath of the ship turning overStella Stevens's "panties" scene"Lindaaaaaaaaaa!!!"Reverend Scott sacrifices himself for the good of the groupThe group is rescuedClosing music, "The Morning After," written by Al Kasha & Joel Hirschhorn and sung by Maureen McGovernJoin our Patreon page to help support the show! https://www.patreon.com/bookversusmovie Book Vs.
