“Look! We just want the money! You guys can walk away, we won't kill you!” A new month means a brand-new theme, and for April, we're diving into “April Showers”—a month dedicated to films set in rainy, storm-drenched worlds! This week, Henrique and David head to Huntingburg, Indiana, where the rain is relentless and the stakes are sky-high in the 1998 action thriller Hard Rain. With three million dollars on the line, a flood swallowing the town, and double-crosses everywhere, this movie is pure 90s adrenaline. Directed by Mikael Salomon and starring Christian Slater, Morgan Freeman, and Randy Quaid, this underrated action gem is finally getting the love it deserves.
"There can be only one!" Sorry, wrong Christopher Lambert movie...Considered by most historians to be the best pre-2000 video game movie, Mortal Kombat (1995) proved you really could make a not-bad live action movie based off a game.As Gene Siskel said: "You had a better time, admit it, than you thought you were going to have at this picture." Roger Ebert responded: "Well, since I thought I was gonna have a very BAD time, that would be true almost no matter what I thought!"While we are no Siskel and Ebert, get over here as we engage with Mortal Kombat!
March 7-13: That movie you watched in 2020, Siskel and Ebert give The Critic thumbs down, Wonder Shozen confuses kids, one of the best episodes of ER, Bruce Willis and Liam Neeson are adequate, Adam Sandler and his stupid shoes, the forgotten live-action Disney and slow horror. All that and more from 30, 20, and 10 years ago!
This week, the guys decide too much time has elapsed since reviewing a horrible Tubi movie. And boy did they make good on it, thanks to the artistry of this week's selection, "Demon of Paradise." So make some popcorn, grab a beer, and listen to the guys Siskel their Eberts pretty hard for Hawaiian Filipinos and a dude in a rubber suit. -- #comedypodcast #RIcomedy #podernfamily #tubi #demonofparadise www.needlesstosaypodcast.com www.ntspodcastgear.com

Med Twin Peaks fick han hela världen att undra vem som mördade Laura Palmer. Det här är berättelsen om regissören som fångade allt det skeva med USA. Nya avsnitt från P3 ID hittar du först i Sveriges Radio Play. I början av 2025, när skoningslösa bränder härjar i Los Angeles, kommer ännu en svart rubrik: Kungen av LA, filmskaparen och konstnären David Lynch, har gått bort 78 år gammal. En hel värld sörjer visionären som kallades för den sista surrealisten.Med filmen ”Eraserhead” slår Lynch igenom i de smalare filmkretsarna i slutet av 70-talet. Men den märkliga svartvita filmen ska snart öppna dörren till Hollywood och den breda publiken. Mot bättre vetande tackar David Lynch ja till att axla rollen som regissör för science fiction-eposet ”Dune”. Fiaskot som följer hade kunnat sänka vilken gryende filmskaparkarriär som helst, men misslyckandet blir en språngbräda för Lynch att visa sitt sanna jag som berättare. I den följande filmen ”Blue velvet” gestaltar han det sömniga villa-amerika han växte upp i, och i vad som blir kännetecknande för hans stil låter han nattsvart ondska och psykosexuella begär krocka med bländvita staket och kromade motorhuvar. Med den epokgörande tv-serien ”Twin peaks” trollbinder han och medskaparen Mark Frost tittarna, som samlas i fikarum världen över för att diskutera svaret på frågan ”Vem mördade Laura Palmer?”.Men studiosystemets rigida ramar skulle gång på gång visa sig vara en för trång kostym för Lynch, som alltid gick sin egen väg för att inte kompromissa med sin vision. Trots det, eller tack vare det, hyllades han av sina kollegor som minns honom med värme som en iögonfallande kalufs höljd i ett moln av cigarettrök.Medverkande: Gunnar Bolin, kulturjournalist och författare, Alexandra Pascalidou, journalist och programledare, Johan Hilton, författare och kulturchef på Göteborgs-Posten, Jesper Ganslandt, regissör.Ljudklipp i avsnittet är hämtade från dokumentären ”The art life”, Bryn Mawr Film Institute, KGSM Mediacache, Hudson Union Society, BAFTA, Toby Keelers Youtubekanal, Alan Lopez youtubekanal, W Magazine, NPR, Siskel & Ebert At The Movies, Overheard with Evan Smith, BBC Global, Bob's Big Boy's Milkshakes, Palme d'Or Cannes, BBC Scene by Scene, The Golden Globes, The David Lynch Foundation samt verk ur Lynchs filmografi.

Torie and Maggie go full-on Siskel and Ebert for this special episode reviewing Nicole Kidman's latest in a series of steamy, psychosexual cinematic narratives, BABYGIRL. Torie hated it and Maggie loved it but both ladies agree this flick with a feminist bent made a valuable contribution to the conversation around women, age and sexuality (aka debunking the myth that women become sexless empty vessels as soon as the baby farm closes).

Kathy and Philippa review the film Tár, a psychological drama featuring the queen of acting, Cate Blanchett. The film centers around Lydia Tár (Cate Blanchett), widely considered one of the greatest living composer-conductors and the very first female director of a major German orchestra. Lydia's life unravels after being accused of misconduct. Tár is full of subtleties, assumptions, and unfinished scenes (in Kathy's opinion). Tune in and discover why Philippa liked it, why Kathy couldn't figure out what was happening, and what they both thought about the film overall (you could say they are the lesbian Siskel and Ebert).

Our look at the career of David Lynch continues with 1986's Blue Velvet. Made in the wake of his Dune adaptation flopping, Blue Velvet proved divisive with critics and audiences alike, partially due to some shocking sexual and violent content. It got a thumbs up from Siskel, and a thumbs down from Ebert. But, since then, the film has gone on to become a cult classic beloved by cinephiles. Inspired by film noir, Lynch's film follows young Jeffery Beaumont, who finds a human ear lying in a field near his parents' home. This discovery sets him on a path to uncover the dark underbelly of his hometown, involving a lounge singer and an unhinged gangster. Blue Velvet follows a more conventional narrative than Eraserhead, but still features some surrealistic flourish and experimentation. As our hosts continue to discover his work, stay tuned to hear their thoughts. What's your favorite David Lynch film? Let us know at cinemaontappodcast@gmail.com
