What does a doomsday drama about nuclear annihilation have in common with a breezy adventure set on the Greek isles? Just the year they hit the big screen. We explore why Fail Safe feels eerily prophetic in the age of AI, and whether or not Eli Wallach should have been doing brownface so much (he shouldn't have). It's Sidney Lumet's tense Cold War thriller Fail Safe, starring Henry Fonda and Walter Matthau, and Disney's sun-drenched mystery The Moon-Spinners, directed by James Neilson and featuring Hayley Mills and Eli Wallach.

This week I'm recommending four crime films from the 1970s and early 80s. Each one centers on a planned job, bank heists, robberies, break-ins, and none of them go smoothly. The tone across these films is lean, serious, and focused on the people involved more than the action. There's a lot of attention to detail, and they hold up well.Charley Varrick (1973) Directed by Don Siegel. Walter Matthau plays a bank robber who ends up in the crosshairs of something bigger than expected. Matthau had just done more comedic work at the time, so this role stood out. Joe Don Baker plays a contract killer hired to clean things up. Lalo Schifrin did the score, which is sharp and suits the pace. It was based on the novel The Looters by John Reese.The Anderson Tapes (1971)Directed by Sidney Lumet. Sean Connery is a thief planning to rob an entire apartment building. The film stands out for how it handles surveillance. Almost every major character is being watched by police, by private groups, by government agencies. This was Christopher Walken's first film. The music is by Quincy Jones, and it's more experimental than you'd expect.Thief (1981) Michael Mann's first feature film. James Caan plays a professional safecracker who wants to get out after one last job. Mann used real tools and brought in actual former thieves to advise on the technical side. The film has a cold, exact feel. The soundtrack is by Tangerine Dream. It's shot in Chicago and uses the city well without overdoing it.The Getaway (1972) Directed by Sam Peckinpah. Steve McQueen and Ali MacGraw star as a couple on the run after a robbery. The script was written by Walter Hill and based on a novel by Jim Thompson. The film was a big success when it came out and mixes action with slower moments of tension. McQueen did many of his own stunts. It's one of the more polished crime films of its time.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work. This is a public episode.

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.

Send us a textStepping into the spotlight this week is our very own Max Fosberg, fresh from his graduation at Seattle Film Institute. In this deeply personal conversation, Max opens up about the transformative journey of pursuing film education in his mid-thirties—a decision that initially felt "almost silly" but ultimately proved profoundly rewarding.The discussion reveals fascinating insights into the practical realities of student filmmaking, where location often dictates creative direction. "I think the first thing that I figured out for each idea was location," Max shares, explaining how his vampire film "Nightstock" grew from having access to a park, while other projects emerged from available spaces like a brewery. This resourcefulness represents the true spirit of independent filmmaking.Beyond technical skills, Max reflects on how film school reshapes one's relationship with cinema itself. He now studies lighting with particular fascination, noting how flat lighting in CGI-heavy productions often diminishes visual impact compared to the masterful shadow work in classics like Sidney Lumet's "Fail Safe." The conversation explores the vulnerability required when sharing creative work, the collaborative magic of production days, and how acting experiences enhanced his ability to communicate with performers.Perhaps most moving is Max's recognition that the relationships formed during this journey matter most. From his Film Institute cohort to the broader Seattle film community, these connections have become the true measure of success. "It's not about the movies," he reflects. "It's really about the relationships." As Max prepares for new adventures in Los Angeles, his story serves as powerful inspiration for anyone considering their own creative leap—regardless of when in life that call comes.What makes a truly successful filmmaker? Listen as we explore how passion, persistence, and people create the foundation for meaningful work in this challenging industry.Support the show

1. (A Late Liz 1971) Campy “god can stop yer drinking” movie, that made me an even bigger fan of Anne Baxter. I want her to blow into many of my life's situations and read the room.
2. (A New Leaf 1971) Elaine May stars and directs this dark comedy classic. Even in 73 Walter Matthau was gettin too old for this shit. This is quite good, but he's better as a tipsy baseball coach.
3.(Under Milk Wood 1971) What the heck is this arty poetry stuff, More Elizabeth Taylor please.
4.(Murder on the Orient Express 1974) Agatha Christie murder mystery book is put on film by director Sidney Lumet in the most competent way ever, in my opinion. One of those films where every actor is here.
5.(Apple Pie 1975)New York arty guy wants more than 5 bux for walkin around money from his parents, what ever shall he do.
6.(Our Winning Season 1978) 3 teens in high school try to figure out and work towards their hopes and dreams only to run face first into patriarchy and the Vietnam war draft.
7.(The Shout 1978) Alien in the tummy guy, Dr. Frankerfurter, Superman's Mom, and Alan Bates star in this movie that is weird. Also the “Shout” itself is quite loud.
8.(Fatso 1980) Ann Bancroft writes and directs this one. Dom Deluise is trying to find love and Health in a cruel harsh world.

Jason Teasley, Chae Tate and Mark Radulich review movies currently on streaming services: The Wiz/Purple Rain/DreamGirls Movie Review! First up is The Wiz (1978). Then we move on to Purple Rain (1984). Finally we review Dreamgirls (2006).The Wiz is a 1978 American musical fantasy adventure film directed by Sidney Lumet. Adapted from the 1974 Broadway musical, the film reimagines the classic children's novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum with an African American cast. Dorothy, a 24-year-old teacher from Harlem, is magically transported to the urban-fantasy Land of Oz. On her travels seeking help from the mysterious Wiz, Dorothy befriends a Scarecrow, a robot called Tin Man, and a Cowardly Lion.The Wiz was theatrically released the following year on October 24, 1978, to critical and commercial failure. The film received generally negative reviews from critics, with many unfavorably comparing the film to its source material. Some critics criticized the casting of Ross as Dorothy, while others criticized the direction of Lumet, who was considered a poor choice for directing a musical. Despite its initial failure, critics have become more favorable in recent years, and it has become a cult classic among audiences, Ross's fanbase, Jackson's fanbase and Oz enthusiasts.Purple Rain is a 1984 American romantic rock musical drama film scored by and starring Prince in his acting debut. Developed to showcase his talents, it contains several concert sequences, featuring Prince and his band The Revolution.

River Phoenix got an Oscar nomination for his role as Danny Pope, the son of two fugitives on the run from the FBI. Though it sounds like an action-packed thriller, Running on Empty was anything but. The film dealt with the hopes, heartaches, and fears of the Pope family, but audiences in 1988 turned a cold shoulder. Now, decades later, is it time for the Sidney Lumet sleeper to come out of the shadows? Was this Phoenix's finest hour? And couldn't the ending have been a li'l happier?

Today on Jewish Studies Unscrolled, we delve into a rare cultural intersection: Jewish life and the genre of horror. While Jewish contributions to American culture often focus on comedy, literature, or music, horror remains largely unexplored, even by prominent Jewish filmmakers. We're joined by Jeremy Dauber, Columbia University professor and author of American Scary: A History of Horror from Salem to Stephen King and Beyond. Together, we examine Sidney Lumet's 1964 film The Pawnbroker as a rare exception, highlighting its haunting depiction of Holocaust survivor Sol Nazerman's trauma, particularly through the “thin place” of the subway—a space where the present collides with the horrors of the past.  You can watch the subway scene we discuss here.

Closing out 2024, cohosts Mike and Dino honor one of the greats in I Eat Movies #38: Quincy Control - The Split (1968) / The Anderson Tapes (1971)! Spotlighting the limitless talent of the late Quincy Jones as well as the iconic roster of artists guided by his producing prowess, the fellas examine two dynamite cinematic helpings elevated by his music. First up, Jim Brown stars as the man with a plan to lead a team of thieves in a heist to snatch millions from the Los Angeles Coliseum. Highlighting the exceptional supporting cast and misguided reception from critics and its own producers, our discussion on this highly stylish effort also ropes in John Boorman's Point Blank and Peter Yates' Bullitt for good measure! Next up, Sean Connery sheds his 007 persona as a recently released prisoner looking for a big pay day by targeting a ritzy Fifth Avenue apartment complex in The Anderson Tapes. Helmed by New York fixture Sidney Lumet, this clever and ahead of the curve examination of surveillance is loaded with more good nature than the rest of the cynical 70s would have you believe. Lawrence Sanders' original novel of which the film is based on as well as Quincy's space-age jazz score are covered at length in this celebration of the maestro's more overlooked works!

*The Morning After* (1986), directed by Sidney Lumet, is a gripping neo-noir thriller that combines mystery, suspense, and a character-driven narrative. Jane Fonda stars as Alex Sternbergen, a washed-up actress with a drinking problem who wakes up one morning in a stranger's apartment with no memory of the previous night — and a dead man lying next to her. Fearing she may be the killer, Alex panics and flees the scene. As she struggles to piece together what happened, she crosses paths with Turner Kendall (Jeff Bridges), an ex-cop turned likable everyman who decides to help her unravel the truth. Together, they dive deeper into the mystery, uncovering dark secrets and confronting the demons from Alex's troubled past. Fonda's raw and vulnerable performance earned her an Academy Award nomination, while Bridges brings depth to his role as her unlikely ally. With Lumet's expert direction, the film explores themes of guilt, redemption, and trust, set against the seedy underbelly of Los Angeles. *The Morning After* is a taut, atmospheric thriller that keeps viewers guessing until the very end.If you are new to the podcast then please consider following us on the platform that you love, we can be found most anywhere that you listen to your favorite podcasts.
