Podcasts about Showgirl

The Film Buff is furious! The Last Showgirl embodies the essence of exceptional filmmaking, yet the Academy Awards snubbed it entirely. Pamela Anderson delivered a career-defining performance worthy of an Oscar, and Jamie Lee Curtis shone brilliantly as her co-star. Tragically, their remarkable work was overlooked, failing to keep pace with the global acclaim it deserved.

Pamela Anderson starring films. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing and William Chen discuss The Last Showgirl (2024) and Barb Wire (1996). We begin by discussing Barb Wire and showering it with praise (excuse the pun). We celebrate the 90s-ness of the film. We talk about all the homages and connections we noticed in Barb Wire, including Casablanca (1942), Batman Forever (1995), Alien 3 (1992), Mad Max (1979), Romeo + Juliet (1996), Candyman (1992), Strange Days (1995), and Total Recall (1990). We praise the cast, including Xander Berkeley, Udo Kier and Temuera Morrison. We discuss the production values of Barb Wire, including the visual effects, action, cinematography and other production values. Our conversation explores the criticism of Barb Wire and how the tastes of audiences shifted over the 90s, making connections to Waterworld (1995), Cutthroat Island (1995), Hook (1991) and Charlie's Angels (2000). We move our discussion to The Last Showgirl, directed by Gia Coppola. We talk about the strength of the performances from Pamela Anderson, Brenda Song, Dave Bautista, Billie Lourd and Jamie Lee Curtis. We unpack the script, the tone, the direction and the ultimate aim of the film, with differing reactions from Sarah, William and Jeremy.

FIRST 19:30: Spoiler-Free Review with our See It/Skip It Verdict AFTER 19:30: Full Spoiler Review Give em' the old Razzle Dazzle, Razzle Dazzle 'em. This week, we dive into The Last Showgirl (2024)—a poignant and surprisingly intimate drama that shines a spotlight on the final curtain call of a forgotten performer. Starring Pamela Anderson in a career-redefining role, the film follows a seasoned Las Vegas showgirl grappling with what comes after the music fades and the makeup comes off. We'll examine the storytelling—Does The Last Showgirl speak to something deeper than a typical showbiz redemption arc? How does Pamela Anderson anchor the film with surprising depth, vulnerability, and quiet power? And perhaps most importantly: how does it explore the things we tell ourselves to keep going—the inner monologues we cling to when chasing the happy endings we think we deserve?  We'll also break down the film's tone and presentation—Is it a loving tribute to old-school showbiz, or a eulogy for what was left behind? Do the glimmers of glamour still matter when they're tinged with loneliness and longing? And is this a film that requires nostalgia for the past—or is it more about the universal fear of being forgotten? Finally, could this film have been made with anyone else in the lead role or is the whole film a reflexive meta-narrative on the lead actress herself? We'll tackle all these questions as we dissect the film and tell you if we think you should SEE IT or SKIP IT!

Die Wirren und Tücken des Showbusiness verfolgen die Figuren in den höchst unterschiedlichen Filmen in dieser Episode. In „The Last Showgirl“ spielt Pamela Anderson eine in die Jahre gekommene Tänzerin in Las Vegas, die über ihre Zukunft nachdenken muss. Nicht nur die gefeierte Hauptdarstellerin brilliert in dem Film von Gia Coppola. Die gesamte Besetzung, der Style und der Soundtrack begeistern. In eine ganz andere Szenerie taucht „Kneecap“ ein, ein temporeicher Mix aus Fiktion und Fakten, der dem gleichnamigen jungen irischen Rapper-Trio folgt. Beim Talk über das vielgelobte Meta-Biopic bekommen Pia Reiser und Christian Fuchs vom FM4-Hip-Hop-Spezialisten Stefan "Trishes" Trischler Besuch im Studio. Als Bonus: Kurzkritiken zu „How To Be Normal“ und „The Assassment“ gleich am Anfang. Sendungshinweis: FM4 Film Podcast, 31.03.2025, 0 Uhr

Sepia Jewel was no stranger to the stage before her burlesque life! Singing in an all female rap group signed onto Epic Records and designing costumes while dancing for the San Diego Ebony Elite's are just a few items on her resumé (include mother, daughter, wife, and friend). It wasn't until 2016, Ms. Jewel was watching the movie Burlesque that she realized she needed to get back to the stage.  At 55 years old, she trained under Coco L'Amour with the Pixie Stixx and from there, the force she possesses couldn't be stopped. Quickly becoming an award winning international showgirl, she soon realized the rhinestone life was aligned with the art therapy she was looking for.  9 years later, Sepia Jewel shows us what it means to be a Black burlesque performer and queen: no age, no location, no *nothing* can stop you. 

Film reviewer Sam Hollis joins Jesse to discuss Disney's live action adaptation of Snow White and Pamela Anderson's The Last Showgirl.

Margaretha Geertruida MacLeod, better known to the world as Mata Hari, set the Paris stage ablaze on March 13, 1905, with a scandalous dance routine that turned her into an overnight success.  Sporting a gold jeweled breastplate and bracelets, Mata Hari's performance was a striptease that left little to the imagination. But even the wildest imagination couldn't envisage what lay ahead for the exotic dancer, courtesan, traitor and spy whose name became synonymous with the femme fatale. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca, and Olly discuss how she played both sides of the First World War for fools; uncover how she met her husband through a newspaper ad; and explain why she always wore a breastplate during sex… Further Reading: • ‘Mata Hari: exotic dancer, femme fatale, traitor and spy' (History Extra, 2019): https://www.historyextra.com/period/first-world-war/mata-hari-exotic-dancer-femme-fatale-traitor-wwi-spy/  • ‘“I am ready”: Mata Hari faced a firing squad for spying — and refused a blindfold.'

durée : 00:03:35 - Le Regard culturel - par : Lucile Commeaux - Le film de Gia Coppola, qui raconte la fin du parcours d'une danseuse de revue à Las Vegas, déçoit par sa fadeur, si ce n'est la performance étrange de Pamela Anderson.

Pamela Anderson s'est confiée au micro de Marie Gicquel pour RTL. Ecoutez L'invité de RTL Midi avec Eric Brunet et Céline Landreau du 12 mars 2025.

Join Lafayette, Carlos, and Laura in this fun-filled episode of Nerds Talking! This week, we dive into the latest entertainment news, with a heavy focus on all things DC Comics—from upcoming projects to industry shakeups.We also review The Last Showgirl, the 2024 drama directed by Gia Coppola and starring Pamela Anderson, Jamie Lee Curtis, Billie Lourd, Dave Bautista, Brenda Song, and Kiernan Shipka. The film tells the heartfelt story of a middle-aged Las Vegas showgirl facing an uncertain future as her long-running revue comes to an end. Is it worth the watch? We break it down!But that's not all—we revisit the benefits (or hype) around Apple Cider Vinegar, discuss the infamous Belle Gibson hoax, and tackle a major real-world issue: Los Angeles' homelessness crisis.

Pam Anderson's performance of Shelly in “The Last Showgirl” gets better the longer it marinates in your mind, but Jamie Lee Curtis as the cocktail slinging ashtray Annette is an instant high camp icon, and it's clear that Jamie Lee is having the time of her life as the down but never out best friend of a Las Vegas showgirl in her final days on stage. Is this movie just Hysterical Blindness on the Strip? Is Billie Lourd actually 47? Who was in the audience for that last performance? Nothing really gets answered but for about 81 minutes, it's a fascinating kick line of questions.

Kim Masters and Matt Belloni investigate.  Plus, Masters speaks to Pamela Anderson about starring in The Last Showgirl. The actress, who says she was a shy girl from a small town in Canada, shares how a chance appearance on a jumbotron at a football game catapulted her into the world of entertainment.

In this episode of No Film School, host GG Hawkins sits down with Robert Schwartzman, producer of The Last Showgirl and co-founder of Utopia, to discuss the evolving landscape of independent cinema. As a filmmaker, distributor, and problem solver, Robert shares insights on how indie filmmakers can take control of their distribution, why the industry is shifting toward self-releasing, and what's next for Utopia. In this episode, No Film School's Jason Hellerman and Robert Schwartzman discuss: The evolving landscape of indie film distribution and the role of technology in direct-to-audience releases How Utopia is working to eliminate middlemen and empower filmmakers The importance of theatrical releases for indie films, despite industry shifts The inspiration behind The Last Showgirl and why Las Vegas was the perfect setting How finding creative solutions—from locations to costumes—can elevate a low-budget film Why international filmmakers have a competitive edge in today's market Memorable Quotes: “I think filmmakers need to also get hip to the idea of like, oh, there's all these places I can sell my film, but I still need to reach them. Like no one's gonna just give me an audience, I need to find them.” (18:35) “The playing field is so level right now, that's what's so exciting about it. Like it's anyone's game. People just have to be willing to play it.” (20:55) “There will come a time when a movie is self-released using these new technologies and it will be nominated for something significant… That's when people are really going to come around to it.” (22:50) “You're not going to get everything you want in filmmaking. The key is knowing what you absolutely need and what you can live without.” (51:07) “If you shoot a movie quickly, the opportunity cost for people goes down.” (55:01) Guest: Robert Schwartzman – Producer of The Last Showgirl, co-founder of Utopia, and filmmaker known for Dreamland and The Unicorn.
