Podcasts about soderbergh

Steven Soderbergh may be one of the greatest filmmakers the industry has ever seen. In contrast to the high-octane excitement of Mission: Impossible, AKAPAD The Film Buff explores a compelling spy movie alternative that feels as polished as its big-budget counterparts. AKAPAD The Film Buff delves into Soderbergh's illustrious career, highlighting how a single pivotal scene can define an entire film.

In 1999, Steven Soderbergh pushed his formal experimentation even further, rendering a straightforward revenge tale into a modernist masterpiece. In the process, the Terence Stamp/Peter Fonda joint THE LIMEY examines memory, the legacy of the 60s, and inaugurates Sodie's obsession with Cockney rhyming slang. Film writer and podcaster and UK resident Elena Lazic joins us to get limey! Good ep!

We break down its sleek direction, gripping espionage twists, and the moral dilemmas at its core—loyalty to country vs. loyalty to love. With sharp dialogue and tense performances, does Black Bag redefine the genre or simply refine it? Tune in as we dissect the film's strengths, its place in Soderbergh's impressive filmography, and whether it lives up to the hype.Actress Karissa Lee Staples Support the showOh Brother Podcast: Subscribe on YouTube Listen on all podcast platforms Follow us on Instagram Leave a 5-star rating/review on Apple Podcasts

Na dann: Der Tod will wieder töten in FINAL DESTINATION: BLOODLINES, Soderbergh will mit BLACK BAG - DOPPELTES SPIEL im Geheimdienst wühlen und Nicolas Winding Ren kehrt mit VALHALLA RISING zurück. Außerdem bitten wir zum TANZ DER TITANEN, beeilen uns ein wenig mit HURRY UP TOMORROW und sind CAUGHT BY THE TIDES angesichts des neuen Films von Regisseur Jia Zhang-Ke. Darüber hinaus haben Schlogger, Andi und Schröck aber auch noch ein paar Streaming-Tipps und Mediatheken-Hinweise für Euch, die sich aus folgenden Titel zusammen setzen. Da sind zum einen NEVER LET GO: LASS NIEMALS LOS von Alexandre Aja, CHAOS WALKING von Doug Liman, IN LIEBE, EURE HILDE von Andreas Dresen und KING'S LAND von Nikolaj Arcel, der damit für den 3. Film in dieser Woche sorgt, in dem Mads Mikkelsen mitspielt. Und da sind zum anderen UNBEUGSAM - DEFIANCE von Edward Zwick, VORTEX - STRUDEL DES LEBENS von Gaspar Noé, DAS URTEIL VON NÜRNBERG von Stanley Kramer und noch ein Film von Steven Soderberg namens TRAFFIC - DIE MACHT DES KARTELLS. Wie immer abgerundet von dem, was die Drei zuletzt gesehen haben. Zum Beispiel DER KLEINE TOD. EINE KOMÖDIE ÜBER SEX, die dann auch ein paar kleine Gespräche zum Thema Sex anregt, BOY KILLS WORLD, der einfach nur tötet, NIGHTWATCH – NACHTWACHE, der immer noch gruselt oder DROP - TÖDLICHES DATE, mit dem Andi dann doch auch ein wenig Spaß hatte. Und zu guter Letzt berichtet Daniel von seinem doch eher pannenreichen Wiedersehen mit STAR WARS: EPISODE 3 - DIE RACHE DER SITH, was aber wohl dennoch ein richtiges Happy End hatte. Als kleine Randnotiz sei noch erwähnt: Am Sonntag kommt noch eine Besprechung zu ANDOR mit Andi und BJÖRN BETON (FETTES BROT), deswegen fällt das heute hier etwas kürzer aus. Ach so, und wir verraten Euch, wann wir endlich KINO+ 500 stattfinden lassen. Damit lässt es sich hoffentlich gut ins Wochenende starten. In diesem Sinne: bleibt gesund, sportlich und gut drauf und viel Spaß beim Glotzen. Ciao. Rocket Beans wird unterstützt von fritz-kola. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Puntata atipica, in cui il sempre ottimo Andrea Di Lecce riempie il vuoto lasciato da ben tre assenze nel solito parterre.Si parla dell'ultimo film di Soderbergh, un thriller spionistico che riesce a essere classico e moderno insieme. Passiamo poi all'ultima baracconata Marvel, dove l'MCU tenta il colpo di reni per risollevarsi puntando su un gruppo di antieroi. Finiamo con la rilettura body horror della fiaba di Cenerentola, dove l'espressione "rifarsi gli occhi" prende un significato tutto suo.Timestamp dei film in scaletta:[02:45] Black Bag[20:10] Thunderbolts*[44:40] The ugly stepsisterPer supportarci: ⁠⁠⁠ko-fi.com/incompetentipodcast⁠⁠⁠Per contatti: gliincompetenti@gmail.comincompetentipodcast.it

It's the OUT OF SIGHT episode, and our guest is Bilge Ebiri. Do we need to sell you on this? OK, fine: in 1998 Steven Soderbergh took a job for hire directing an Elmore Leonard adaptation and ended up finding the style that would define much of his career, minting George Clooney as a movie star, capturing Jennifer Lopez's best-ever performance, working with Don Cheadle and Luis Guzman and a bunch of other people for the first time, and making one of the most watchable films of the 1990s. Jake also read the whole book. We talk about Leonard's moral universe, prison stuff, cop stuff, crime fiction stuff. I mean, come on. It's the OUT OF SIGHT episode with Bilge.

What the hell is going on with Steven Soderbergh's 1996 super-low-budget labor of love comedy SCHIZOPOLIS? Our returning guests, the filmmakers and all-around handsome devils Jordan Fish and Ray Tintori of the To The White Sea Podcast, help us get to the bottom of it. Is this quietly a devastating analysis of a failed marriage starring the director and his real-life ex-wife Betsy Brantley? Or is all that drowned out by too much proto-Random Humor and OK Cola-style 90s disaffection? Is Jake even capable of being nice about this movie?

In 1989, Steven Soderbergh was on top of the world. By 1995, he was underneath...THE UNDERNEATH, that is! We're talking Sodie's very loose remake of the 1949 Robert Siodmak film noir CRISS-CROSS (and the 1934 novel on which it was based), noir in the 1990s, armored cars, and Soderbergh's evolving film language as he becomes the director we all know and love.

Director Steven Soderbergh has given us some incredibly fun (and well-made) films over the past few decades. Everything from OCEAN'S ELEVEN to ERIN BROCKOVICH to TRAFFIC to MAGIC MIKE, Soderbergh's routine leaves audiences cheering in one fashion or another, with BLACK BAG, that holds true. With an incredible cast of Cate Blanchett, Michael Fassbender, Marisa Abela, Tom Burke, Naomie Harris and Regé-Jean Page, Soderbergh and writer David Koepp create a soon-to-be classic spy thriller. So let's talk about it...

FULL EPISODE: https://www.patreon.com/posts/black-bag-2025-124796769Soderbergh is one of the top Steven's working in Hollywood today! What made BLACK BAG one we were all anticipating, and did it live up to our lofty expectations? Richard is joined by first-time guest Matt as they both dive into Soderbergh's newest.

What's this?  Yet ANOTHER movie/series about a married couple who are also spies?!? :o Yes this thriller is about a couple of British spies who both work for the same intelligence agency and apparently there's a dangerous leak which has occurred at this agency.  One of them has been tasked with finding out who the leaker is while the OTHER might actually be the prime suspect....uh-oh, could be silly! :POr maybe not as it's written by David Koepp (Jurassic Park, Panic Room), directed by Steven Soderbergh (Out of Sight, Erin Brockovich, Ocean's 11), and features a top-flight cast of talent including two-time Oscar-nominee Michael Fassbender (Shame, Steve Jobs) and two-time Oscar Winner Cate Blanchett (Elizabeth, Tar) as the married couple.  The cast also includes rising stars Rege-Jean Page (Bridgerton) and Marisa Abela (Industry) along with two acclaimed alumni from the James Bond franchise, Pierce Brosnan and Naomi Harris.  Sounds intriguing....Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Has Steven Soderbergh retired? Because his retirement looks an awful lot like making two movies a year. BFG Chief film critic Stephen Garrett, who knows more about film on Tuesday than you'll know in a lifetime, has interviewed Soderbergh several times and says that "retirement" is really more of a euphemism for DIY filmmaking. With 'Black Bag', an admittedly $50 million studio picture, he brings the DIY mentality to a star-studded spy drama that's loaded with wit and sexiness and everything else that's missing from movies for adults these days. Stephen and Neal Pollack liked it somewhat, even though it's really a condensed version of a clever streaming show about spies.Stephen feels like the stars, Cate Blanchett and Michael Fassbender, have zero sexual chemistry, but Neal feels the heat from Rege Jean Page and especially Marisa Abela, who plays a horny young surveillance analyst. It's a clever, fun, tight thriller. And modest. Enjoy.South By Southwest (SXSW) is in the past now, and despite what you might hear, it's not dead. But the Austin-based cultural festival has trimmed back the bloat somewhat, condensing the struggling tech and music festivals and placing the booming film and TV festival more front and center. That's certainly not a problem for veteran SXSW heads Neal Pollack and Pablo Gallaga, who between them saw more than a dozen movies and waited in more than a dozen lines.Tune in for Neal and Pablo's comprehensive breakdown of where SXSW is going, and where it's been, and also a very detailed breakdown of the new Tim Robinson movie 'Friendship.' They liked it, maybe they wanted to like it more. If you meet Neal anywhere in public after May, when the movie comes out, you will have to have a similar conversation. That's why you need to follow BFG. You'll be able to talk about anything in the culture.Enjoy the podcast!

The winds of March are upon us, and Spring is right around the corner... as is the latest Movie Preview!   Mikey has put forth hours and hours and hours of time copying and pasting, and now he, d$, and #XLessDrEarl are presenting all the movies you will want to see over the next few months! First, a quick recap of the Academy Awards... what they got right, what they got wrong, and did Zoe Saldana earn her trophy? Then, the birthday movies of 2020, 2015, 2010 and more -- as we enter the Five Years since the world (and theaters) shut down.  And even a mention of Baby Secret of the Lost Legend. Finally, the Spring Movie Preview with new flicks from Soderbergh and Cronenberg... Samara Weaving back onscreen... will Snow White actually succeed... Ben Affleck is back to do some more counting... Paul Rudd killing a unicorn... Statham back to do what Statham does... Alejandro and the No Bueno Day... Not that Havoc, this new Havoc... and does anyone actually like Blake Lively?

Josh is joined by fellow Steven Soderbergh enthusiasts, Old Auteur Correspondent Josh Brown and Tom Hanks Correspondent Joe Morgan for a double feature. First, they talk about Soderbergh's "Presence" (Beginning-41:50) including the unique camera-work utilized to tell a story from the perspective of a ghost, if the film managed to make the audience care about its characters despite its short run time, the specific ways in which it was disturbing without traditional jump scares and much more! Then (41:51-end) they discuss Robert Zemeckis' "Here" and how Bobby Z did in adapting a one-location graphic novel in which the camera barely moves in a film that spans centuries, if they got sufficient glimpses of all of the characters' lives despite the story jumping back-and-forth throughout, the quality of the vairous performances and much more!

Steven Soderbergh's first feature, sex, lies, and videotape put him on the map hard. It won the Palme d'Or, made the Sundance Film Festival into an industry unto itself, and helped turn Miramax into a major player - to say nothing of its actual content. Join us as we dig into the film that made Soderbergh an overnight sensation and try to act normal about intimacy. Good ep!   Further Reading: Sex, Lies, and Videotape by Steven Soderbergh Down and Dirty Pictures by Peter Biskind Rebels on the Backlot by Sharon Waxman Further Viewing: FIVE EASY PIECES (Rafelson, 1970) CARNAL KNOWLEDGE (Nichols, 1971)   Follow Pod Casty For Me: https://www.podcastyforme.com/ https://twitter.com/podcastyforme https://www.instagram.com/podcastyforme/ https://www.youtube.com/@podcastyforme Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/PodCastyForMe Artwork by Jeremy Allison: https://www.instagram.com/jeremyallisonart
