Dave Jemitus talks with Autolemy about his new spy thriller Assisting Fate and the CD of original tracks that goes with it.

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/

This week, we review director Steven Soderbergh's second film to be released in as many months. Black Bag sure is steamy — Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett playing married spooks certainly heightens its seductiveness — but its real heat lies in its surprising juxtaposition, honing in on a passionate kernel of loyalty and devotion within a sea of spy-versus-spy cynicism: the ultimate, lean expression of “couple goals.” We talk about its razor-sharp screenplay, riveting performances, and unexpected economy.

Author Matt Scott discusses his political thriller series, Surviving the Lion's Den. All three books in this trilogy—Surviving the Lion's Den, The Iranian Deception, and The Ayatollah Takedown—are available now. The series opens with a race against time. Can the main characters make it safely out of Iran in the midst of a political coup to overthrow Iran's Supreme Leader—a coup orchestrated by the U.S. government? Inspired by Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code, Matt set about to write a series that would explore what it looks like to be inside Iran during a regime change. The books feature CIA operatives, Iranian insiders, international intrigue, geopolitical conflicts, and plenty of fast-paced tension.

Today on the 5: Thanks to a listener recommendation, I watched a 1997 spy thriller titled The Assignment.

This week, I talk with Rob Hart and Alex Segura about their new space thriller Dark Space.  We dive into their world building, their joint writing process, and how speculative fiction helps us examine present truths.Dark Space SynopsisIf life were fair, ace pilot Jose Carriles should have ended up a desk jockey like his former friend Corin Timony, back on the lunar colony of New Destiny. Instead, he's the pilot of the Mosaic—a massive ship taking the Interstellar Union's first-ever mission to outside our solar system.Timony should have been the best spy at the Bazaar, the lunar colony's international intelligence arm. Instead, she's been demoted to admin duties like monitoring long-range communications. She has no one to blame but herself—and maybe Carriles.But when the Mosaic experiences a series of strange malfunctions and Carriles is forced to take a wild gamble to save the ship, he begins to suspect the reasons behind the exploratory mission weren't exactly on the up-and-up.At the same time, Timony's old instincts kick in as she realizes the distress call she received from the Mosaic has been wiped without a trace.As people start to end up dead and loyalties are tested, Timony and Carriles find themselves entangled in a star-spanning conspiracy that drags them through the darkest corners of their government—and their own personal failures—and face-to-face with a reckoning that could destroy humanity as we know it.

But it's tonkas - for little tykes The Mo Town is now No Town And there's no biz in the show biz Nobody beats the beats on the streets of Plymouth Road, rock, paper, scissors, knives, kids A bad combo like wires in the faucet, shock value of optics Fried flesh - When words fall on backs like gossip Don't stop it - is what they said The clicks make bread and the eye balls make lead Shootin' darts with the hearts –  because the bull's eye's in the head The offense was Fed, Bad Fences where neighbors might strike you They don't take care of you cuz they don't like you  A character in a play, they'll write you, unite you,  a family affair, they'll hype you  A trial -  to try you - you might get betrayed heh - just to spite you That's right - you gripe, you think it's a flight but on your side's not might You see that sword in the stone, but you're not that knight The nighttime reveals what squeals and what's slick like eels The ink of scholars is soon dust - from sacred to cuss The survival of Jabbari Lincoln –  a must but he doesn't know who to trust…  

Forty-five years ago in the wake of the record-breaking success of the original Star Wars, the folks at EON Productions lead by the late, great Albert Broccoli decided to take their long-running James Bond franchise in a somewhat different direction.....IN SPACE!!! :) Yes THIS is the one where Agent 007 (Roger Moore) goes to space, though to be fair not until the third act.   Directed by Lewis Gilbert (The Spy Who Loved Me), this actually had a pretty similar plot to previous Bond entries like 'Spy Who Loved Me or his other previous film You Only Live Twice: evil billionaire and space maven Hugo Drax (Michael Lonsdale) has designs on taking over the world....by wiping out the human race with a rare toxin found in the jungles of Brazil, then to be repopulated by a new race of people lead by him up in space. :o Yup it's pretty nutty but it was a huge hit at the time and did manage to entertain..... Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a Text Message.https://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Author Brian J. Morra discusses the first two books in his new series: The Able Archers and The Righteous Arrows. The series is a work of historical fiction based on certain real-life events during the late Cold War period of the 1980's. The protagonist, CIA officer Kevin Cattani, is inspired by Brian's own experiences as a U.S. intelligence officer during that period, and Cattani's Soviet counterpart, Ivan Levchenko, is a composite of various KGB and GRU officers who Brian knew in the 80's. Written as a thriller, the series navigates one of the most dangerous periods in human history.

If you're a romantic suspense fan, you are probably holding your breath just like we are that the new Mr. and Mrs. Smith TV series will live up to our shipping expectations. The series, which premieres February 2 on Amazon Prime, is a reimagining of the movie starring Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie. Donald Glover and Maya Erskine star as John and Jane Smith, two spies posing as a married couple for their mission who are maybe, just maybe, stumbling into real feelings for each other. Ahead of the show's first 8 episodes, hosts Jennifer and Heather discussed their first impressions of the trailer. They share their hopes and fears for the series, and, of course, their predictions about whether they're going to “ship it or skip it.”Show notes & couples discussed in the episode (by timestamp):Watch the trailers we're discussing here:Mr. and Mrs. Smith's “Teaser” trailer The “full-length trailer” for Mr. and Mrs. SmithIs the new Mr. and Mrs. Smith series based on a past movie or show? Here's what we found:Alfred Hitchcock made exactly one (1) comedy, and it was the 1941 film Mr. and Mrs. Smith – zero relationship to the Pitt/Jolie movie or this new show from what we can tell, thoughMaria Bello and Scott Bakula starred in a short-lived 1996 TV show called Mr. and Mrs Smith that seems to be more of the template for this new seriesIn the 2005 action romance movie we all know and love, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt play a husband and wife whose marriage is on the rocks until they each learn that the other is a spy at a competing agency. Who knew attempted assassinations could save a marriage? Seriously, that's the plot.See you in part 2 of this episode, where we'll chat about our reactions to the full 8-episode season of the new Mr. and Mrs. Smith!

For a long-running franchise like the James Bond series, the release of Casino Royale in 2006 was just a shot in the arm - this was the first film starring Daniel Craig as Agent 007 and it was also THE first film in the history of this franchise to be a genuine reboot.  It received stellar reviews, made a ton of money, and was beloved by fans....it was also the first entry to end on a genuine cliffhanger.  The plan for the next film was to have an immediate follow-up for our lead character as that ending would directly lead into this next story from the first scene on.  So needless to say, expectations were QUITE high for this follow-up sequel released just about two years later....And while this movie did make as much money as its predecessor, the reviews were much worse and for the most part, fans were quite disappointed.  This came from a director (Marc Forster) who had never directed a big budget entertainment like this before and it also started filming without a finished script.....and since there was a writer's strike at the time, that script remained largely unfinished through production.  AND....this was a generally downbeat story also filmed in an admitted more claustrophobic style.  It just left a sour taste in the mouths of audiences which fortunately was forgotten four years later with the release of the beloved Skyfall.So now revisiting this sequel 15 years later, was it really that bad?  Well it featured a strong cast including Olga Kurylenko as the latest "Bond girl," Mathieu Amalric as the latest villain, and some returning cast from the previous film including Judi Dench, Giancarlo Giannini, and Jeffrey Wright.  So let's find out....if there was a quantum....of....solace? :Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon https://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
