"You men shoot, aim for white meat." Dog Day Afternoon (1975) directed by Sidney Lumet and starring Al Pacino, John Cazale, Charles Durning, Chris Sarandon and Penolope Allen. Next Time: Schindler's List (1993)

Angry men?? What else is new! That's an example of the pithy, topical comedy you can expect from the Bros, but don't worry -- there's PLENTY to joke, rage, mourn, and ponder about when discussing Sidney Lumet's feature film directorial debut, 12 ANGRY MEN! Along the way, we discuss the importance of rehearsal, the UTTER PERFECTION of the script, and, of course, the depressingly ever-present need for a story like this. IF YOU SO CHOOSE, Alex would love to invite donations to her KICKSTARTER for her upcoming LA Fringe show! Thank you!

Dans cet épisode tout court avec Elodie, Cécile et Fred on vous a parlé de cinéma avec Network de Sidney Lumet, de la vidéo Yu Gi Oh avec Mister MV, de la littérature avec Un avenir radieux de Pierre Lemaître.Mais aussi un peu de youtube, de web séries avec Sauce Piquante ou encore de la musique avec Jobi Riccio.

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

8 more 70's movie reviews in the can, and they are
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. 
Hey friends hang in there please.
As always thanks for listening.

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. The film is directed by Albert Magnoli, who later became Prince's manager, from a screenplay by Magnoli and William Blinn. The cast also features Apollonia Kotero, Morris Day, Olga Karlatos and Clarence Williams III.It grossed $70.3 million worldwide, against its $7.2 million budget. The film won an Academy Award for Best Original Song Score. Publications and critics have regarded Purple Rain as one of the greatest musical films. In 2019, the film was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Film Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".Dreamgirls is a 2006 American musical drama film written and directed by Bill Condon and jointly produced and released by DreamWorks Pictures and Paramount Pictures. Adapted from the 1981 Broadway musical of the same name, Dreamgirls is a film à clef, a work of fiction taking strong inspiration from the history of the Motown record label and its superstar act the Supremes. The story follows the history and evolution of American R&B music during the 1960s and 1970s through the eyes of a Detroit girl group known as "The Dreams" and their manipulative record executive.The film adaptation features an ensemble cast, starring Jamie Foxx, Beyoncé Knowles and Eddie Murphy with Jennifer Hudson, Danny Glover, Anika Noni Rose and Keith Robinson in supporting roles. In addition to the original compositions by composer Henry Krieger and lyricist Tom Eyen, four new songs, composed by Krieger with various lyricists, were added for the film. The film marks the acting debut of Hudson, a former American Idol contestant.Dreamgirls debuted in four special road show engagements starting on December 4, 2006, before its nationwide release on December 15, 2006. With a production budget of $80 million, Dreamgirls is one of the most expensive films to feature a predominant African-American starring cast in American film history. The film received positive reviews from critics, who particularly praised Condon's direction, the soundtrack, costume and production design, and performances of the cast, in particular Hudson and Murphy, and was also a commercial success, grossing $155.4 million worldwide.[4] At the 79th Academy Awards, the film received a leading eight nominations, winning Best Supporting Actress (for Hudson), and Best Sound Mixing. At the 64th Golden Globe Awards, it won three awards, including for the Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

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? The Old Roommates cut a slice of "Sam cake" and give it a rewatch through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.Old Roommates can be reached via email at oldroommatespod@gmail.com.

Hey Reservos! This week we are discussing Sidney Lumet's Dog Day Afternoon. Listen as we breakdown this dramatization of the bizarre real life robbery of a Brooklyn bank that shocked the city with all of its twists and turns that kept everyone on edge until the very end. Enjoy!

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!

In this episode of Badlands Story Hour, hosted by Chris Paul and Burning Bright, we dive deep into Sidney Lumet's 1976 film Network, exploring its chilling relevance to today's media landscape. The movie's portrayal of media manipulation, corporate control, and the construction of reality through television is dissected with a sharp focus on how these themes echo in modern infotainment. We discuss the timeless narrative of Howard Beale as a "mad prophet" and its parallels to contemporary news and entertainment, touching on how corporations shape public perception and profit from the stories they tell. Tune in for a thought-provoking analysis of how fiction becomes reality, from Hollywood to the newsrooms of today.

In between discussing Mustang blindess and singing bars from "Booty Juice," James and Allan discuss Hitchcock's MARNIE, THE WOMAN IN THE DUNES, FAIL SAFE, KITTEN WITH A WHIP, THE TRAIN, and so much more.  Follow us on Bsky @cinemashame.bsky.social and on Instagram @CinemaShamePodcast. 

*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.

Rage for Ratings: Paddy Chayefsky & Sidney Lumet Present NETWORK What was once considered a satire by all (save the two men who made it - they considered it a reflection of what was happening), Paddy Chayefsky and Sidney Lumet's 1976 masterpiece exists as a fifty year harbinger of a media, social, and political reality that has reached its culmination with the current state of American culture. Once considered a blistering social comedy Network has lost a great deal of of its humor in the absurd realities of the third decade of the 21st Century. Mr. Chavez & I are thrilled, excited, depressed, and disgusted . . . all of it coming out in this timely discussion.

This episode is about two great films on the same dark theme: David talks to American historian Jill Lepore about Stanley Kubrick's Dr Strangelove and Sidney Lumet's Fail Safe, which appeared within a few months of each other in 1964. Both films explore what might happen if America's nuclear defence system went rogue. One is grimly hilarious; the other is utterly terrifying.

Brothers J and Eric discuss the 1964 Sidney Lumet film Fail Safe, a bleak warning against nuclear weapons controlled by computers. It's full of great actors and, while it is basically the same premise as Dr Strangelove, it is NOT a comedy.   Housekeeping starts at about 50:00 and includes discussion of the process of voting, government acronyms, and Batman in virtual reality.   File length 1:05:30 File Size 50.1 MB   Theme by Jul Big Green via SongFinch Subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts Listen to us on Stitcher Like us on Facebook Follow us on Twitter Send your comments to show@notinacreepyway.com Visit the show website at Not In A Creepy Way

1982's … DEATHTRAP.. Michael Caine, Christopher Reeve and Dyan Cannon directed by Sidney Lumet.

Cʹest un film humaniste, interrogeant la place et la pertinence des médias face à la terrifiante complexité du réel, le voyeurisme de télévision, et la répression policière. Un film en marge qui parle dʹêtres en bordure, des freaks comme les appelle le cinéaste. Dans Un après-midi de Chien, Dog Day Afternoon, sorti en 1976, le réalisateur américain réussit le pari dʹun huis-clos haletant en partant dʹun fait divers réel qui a eu lieu à Brooklyn en août 1972. Le scénario est écrit au cordeau par Frank Pierson. Un homosexuel, amoureux, pour payer la transformation de son mari en femme, ne va rien trouver de mieux que de braquer une banque avec lʹaide dʹun complice tout aussi branquignole que lui. Une idée folle évidemment, et qui tourne court. Le récit échappe très vite au film de braquage. Les voyous multiplient les imprudences, les poisses, la banque est rapidement encerclée par la police et par les médias. Les cambrioleurs, coincés, se transforment en preneurs dʹotage et se joue alors une histoire presque surréaliste où la foule prend parti pour les braqueurs. Le drame devient une tragicomédie, où tout est pathétique. La situation de Sonny, joué avec maestria par Al Pacino, sa femme, transsexuelle, sa mère, le drame joué devant les caméras, et puis John Cazale, qui lʹaccompagne, loser également, font de ce film un spectacle étonnant, un classique du cinéma. Aujourdʹhui dans Travelling, nous allons plonger dans lʹunivers de ce cinéaste réaliste, issu de la télévision, fort dʹune filmographie de 43 longs-métrages dont les plus connus sont sans doute 12 hommes en colère et Serpico. Sidney Lumet est donc au cœur de lʹémission du jour, avec ce film incroyable quʹil faut avoir vu une fois dans sa vie. Ne tardons pas…direction Brooklyn, un après-midi de canicule, quelques instants avant la fermeture dʹune banque, au moment où tout va déraper.

Adam Egypt Mortimer is an American filmmaker, Producer and graphic novel writer. Originally from Boston, Adam kicked off his directing career with Some Kind of Hate in 2015 and followed that up with 2019's Daniel Isn't Real and 2020's Arch Enemy.But Adam doesn't stop at films; he's also ventured into comics, co-creating series like Ballistic and Black Star Renegades. In this episode Adam opens up about his journey. We chat about facing personal fears as a director, easing the pressure when making your first film, and staying adaptable when shit goes sideways on set.Adam shares his thoughts on enjoying the filmmaking process, keeping your passion alive, the importance of continuous learning, and even some of his favorite horror deep cuts. Adam delivers an incredibly insightful and candid interview, and I got a lot of advice as well as reassurance from this conversation. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Please welcome, Adam Egypt Mortimer.Here are some key takeaways from this conversation with Adam Egypt Mortimer:Identify and address your anxieties. Filmmaking demands a wide range of skills, as Sidney Lumet emphasizes in his book Making Movies. Directors need to be renaissance people, well-versed in everything from art and psychology to music and literature. It can be overwhelming to juggle these diverse disciplines, but an effective director has to recognize their weaknesses and actively work on them. For Adam, working with actors was a major source of insecurity, so he made it a priority to study Judith Weston's work to improve in that area before approaching his first movie.Depressurize your first film. There's a common belief that your first film needs to be a masterpiece like Reservoir Dogs, Blood Simple, or Brick. However, Adam argues that this pressure can harm you creatively and cause your movie to suffer. He suggests accepting from the outset that your first film will have flaws, and that's okay. Instead of aiming for perfection, focus on proving to yourself and the world that you can complete what you start. By alleviating some of the pressure, you allow yourself more creative freedom and ultimately will make a better film.Adapt at a Darwinian level. Adam's story about a lead actor falling ill on a crucial production day is a powerful example of adaptability. When faced with this setback, he intentionally avoided panicking and instead saw it as an opportunity to create something new. He reassured himself and his crew that this disaster could lead to an opportunity to make a scene that was even better than was originally planned in the script. While this mindset might seem like wishful thinking, it underscores the level of strength and resilience you'll need to develop as as a director because shit will happen—you need to not only handle it but use it to your advantage.Relax and enjoy the journey. Reflecting on his career, Adam wishes he could tell his younger self to enjoy the process more. Making movies takes time, effort, and a bit of luck, so it's crucial to relax and give yourself the space to do it right. He specifically mentioned that he would encourage his younger self to not be so hard on himself and to watch more cool French movies. The message is clear: whatever inspires you, make time for it, and remember to enjoy the journey that led you to fall in love with cinema in the first place.Show NotesMovies:Some Kind of HateDaniel Isn't RealArch EnemyBad Day at Black RockEasy Riders, Raging BullsThe ExorcistPersonaFight ClubAlienVideodromeBride of FrankensteinMartyrsPossessionBugKiller...
