“The Tragic Life of Classic Cinema Star Gail Russell” (082) - 4/07/2025 Hollywood legend has it that ethereal beauty GAIL RUSSELL was discovered after a Paramount Studios talent manager picked up two hitchhiking Santa Monica high school boys who told him all about the "Hedy Lamarr of Santa Monica High School." Allegedly, he then tracked down Russell at school and arranged for a screen test. The rest, as they say, is Hollywood history. If only it had been that easy. Russell, who was painfully shy and had no interest in a career as an actress was pushed in front of the camera by her ambitious mother and the executives at Paramount who saw dollar signs in her startling blue eyes. This week, we explore the life and career of one of Hollywood's most tragic beauties, GAIL RUSSELL.

Book Vs. Movie: The Asphalt JungleThe W.R. Burnett Novel & the 1950 John Huston FilmW.R. Burnett's 1949 novel The Asphalt Jungle is a compelling crime story that explores the minds, motivations, and downfalls of professional criminals. Set in a Midwestern city, it offers a multi-perspective narrative that vividly portrays the underworld. John Huston's 1950 film adaptation remains faithful to the book while enhancing the story with striking cinematography and strong performances. However, it shifts the setting to an unnamed urban landscape and introduces Marilyn Monroe's expanded role as a corrupt lawyer's mistress. Between the novel & the film, which did we prefer? Listen to find out! In this ep, the Margos discuss:Author W.R Burnett and Film Noir of the 40s and 50s The work of John HustonThe differences between the book and movieThe cast includes Sterling Hayden (Dix Handley,) Louis Calhern (Alonzo D.

EPISODE 78 - “FILM NOIR - Part 1 - WHAT IS NOIR?” - 3/10/2025 Have you ever wondered what exactly is film noir? TCM's EDDIE MULLER describes it this way: “Film Noir is all about treachery, deceit, and paranoia. You're never quite sure what is going on, who you can trust, or what dreadful pitfall waits around the corner.” This dark and twisted film genre popped up after WWII as a quiet cynicism began to creep into the national consciousness. In film noir, there is always an underbelly of darkness that comes out to play. And within the darkness, the shadows, and the neon lights, lie many stories of crime, dishonesty, adultery, murder, and mayhem. This week, we present the first in a special three-part series that delves into the darkest of genres where crooked cops, gangsters, torch singers, barflies, and other seedy character's live, love and kill. Join us as we discuss Film Noir! SHOW NOTES: Sources: Film Noir (2017), by Alian Silver & James Ursini; Into the Darkness: The Hidden World of Film Noir 1941-1959 (2016), by Mark A.

"MARY BETH HUGHES - CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH" - 3/03/2025 For those of you who don't know the charms of MARY BETH HUGHES, when she was under contract at MGM, she was dubbed "the poor man's LANA TURNER." It was a rather unfair assessment since MGM gave Lana all the plum roles, and Mary Beth got her hand-me-downs. But still, Mary Beth had great comic chops, and no one played bitchy, hard-boiled blondes as well as she. Despite her beauty and talent, she never managed to get out of B-pictures. She did have small parts in great films like The Women (1939) and The Ox-Bow Incident (1942). She played the good girl as often as she played the bad girl, but when she played bad....you were in for a treat. Her pouty lips, snappy dialogue, and petulant attitude lit up many a lackluster production. This week, we celebrate her as our Star of the Month.

In this episode at the Silver Screen Video, we explore the fascinating intersection of Johnny Guitar (1954) and the broader genre of Western Noir. Directed by Nicholas Ray and starring Joan Crawford, Sterling Hayden, and Mercedes McCambridge, Johnny Guitar stands out as a moody, subversive take on the Western genre, blending classic tropes with dark, psychological elements. We delve into how Johnny Guitar flips traditional Western conventions, turning the usual hero-villain dynamic on its head, with complex characters whose motivations are more ambiguous than in typical Westerns. With its stylized use of color, stark landscapes, and its morally gray characters, Johnny Guitar anticipates many of the hallmarks of Western Noir — a subgenre of Westerns that leans heavily into crime, fatalism, and the darker aspects of human nature.

Hey Folks! In this episode we talk about Carly's swollen two face job interview and the neo noir The Long Goodbye! The Long Goodbye is a 1973 American satirical neo-noir film directed by Robert Altman and written by Leigh Brackett, based on Raymond Chandler's 1953 novel. The film stars Elliott Gould as Philip Marlowe and features Sterling Hayden, Nina Van Pallandt, Jim Bouton, Mark Rydell, and an early, uncredited appearance by Arnold Schwarzenegger. The story's setting was moved from the 1940s to 1970s Hollywood. The film has been called "a study of a moral and decent man cast adrift in a selfish, self-obsessed society where lives can be thrown away without a backward glance ... and any notions of friendship and loyalty are meaningless."[2] In 2021, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant"

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! Today, we're delving into the noirish depths of Stanley Kubrick's early masterpiece, The Killing (1956). This film, often hailed as a seminal work in the heist genre, showcases Kubrick's burgeoning directorial prowess and his knack for intricate storytelling.The Killing is set around a meticulously planned racetrack robbery led by Johnny Clay, played by Sterling Hayden. The film is known for its non-linear narrative, a Kubrick trademark that adds layers of suspense and intrigue. The plot weaves through the perspectives of various characters involved in the heist, each bringing their own motivations and fatal flaws to the foreground.Johnny Clay assembles a team of small-time crooks and corrupt insiders to steal $2 million from the racetrack. Each member of the crew is desperate enough to risk it all for the promise of a big payoff. As the plan unfolds, the tension escalates with every step closer to the heist. However, as with many tales of greed, the meticulously laid plans begin to unravel due to personal betrayals and unforeseen variables.Kubrick's direction in The Killing is both precise and stylized, featuring sharp dialogue, dramatic lighting, and a narrative structure that keeps the audience guessing. The non-linear storytelling was innovative for its time, influencing countless heist films and crime dramas that followed. Unlike many heist films that focus on the plot, The Killing delves deeply into character psychology, providing a compelling look at what drives people to the brink of moral decay.At its core, The Killing explores themes of greed, fate, and the inherent unpredictability of the best-laid plans. It challenges the notion that perfect planning can lead to perfect outcomes, presenting a cynical view of human nature and the inevitability of chaos in criminal endeavours.For fans of classic cinema and crime thrillers, The Killing is a must-watch for its ground-breaking narrative technique and its role in shaping Stanley Kubrick's directorial identity. The film is not just a piece of entertainment but a study in how to build suspense and develop characters within the confines of a genre film.So, whether you're a seasoned cinephile or just discovering Kubrick's works, join us as we revisit The Killing. It's a journey through the shadows of human desires and the lengths to which people will go for a shot at escaping their mundane realities.

3 DAYS OF THE CONDOR – A Fresh Look The 1975 spy movie, 3 DAYS OF THE CONDOR, is a “reluctant spy” movie starring Robert Redford, Faye Dunaway. Cliff Robertson, and Max von Sydow. Dan and Tom take a fresh look at this movie, decoding the plot, characters, direction, and more. What are the influences on 3 DAYS OF THE CONDOR as well as what movies/TV shows may CONDOR have influenced? What about Hercules (the myth, not the movie)? “Seinfeld?” The James Bond series, Mission: Impossible, or the Bourne series? And then, there's the actor Sterling Hayden, the MCU, and more. 3 DAYS OF THE CONDOR has an intriguing plot that has Robert Redford's character, Turner – codenamed Condor, dealing with a series of murders, with him being a target as well. Turner works for the CIA in the role of a reader. Significantly, Turner is not an agent. What other spy movies can you think of where the protagonist wasn't really a spy? Decoded! We take a deep dive into the positives and negatives of 3 DAYS OF THE CONDOR. The movie generally has positive feedback, but there are some criticisms. Do you agree with our discussion of these? Tell us what you think We like 3 DAYS OF THE CONDOR. But its ending left Dan and Tom divided. Dan didn't like the ending whereas Tom thought it worked well. Who do you agree with?

This week, we've got Roy Scheider popping up for two scenes in director Irvin Kershner's LOVING, starring George Segal, Eva Marie Saint, and Sterling Hayden!
“Arf! Arf!” “What's that, Girl? Timmy's in the well!!?” We speak fluent Collie and Timmy got into plenty of trouble but he never fell into a well. What Lassie is trying to tell you there is that “Timmy,” Jon Provost, is doing very well. He's an animal rights activist who has just launched a CBD spray to help calm pets and, along with his wife, Laurie Jacobson, he's written a book chronicling his phenomenal show-biz history, including films with Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly, Jane Wyman, Robert Redford, Natalie Wood, William Holden, Clinton Eastwood and Kurt Russell. Jon spent seven years working on Lassie and June Lockhart before graduating as a bona fide teen idol and exploring all of the iconic haunts along the Sunset Strip with Davy Jones, David Cassidy and Sajid Kahn!The book is, naturally, titled Timmy's In The Well and along with Jon's acting history, it also explores what happens to a family when one kid becomes world famous. Jon's wife Laurie joins us with insights into exactly that as well as intrigue on Hollywood's hidden history and a peek into her next book about The Sunset Strip.We leave no stone unturned and no well un-excavated as we trace Jon's start back to his mother's love for Jane Wyman which compelled her to bring her 3-year-old son to a cattle-call audition for the role of Sterling Hayden and Jane Wyman's little boy in 1953's So Big. Out of a sea of hundreds, Jon won the part.From there, we go behind the Lassie scenes with Jon as he warmly remembers his relationship with the world's most beloved dog and her trainer, Rudd Weatherwax. (Actually, his trainer. Lassie was always played by a male dog.) Jon and Lassie travelled the country on promotional tours and along the way, they grand marshaled parades, hosted charity events and visited children's hospital, inspiring Jon towards a lifetime of charity work and public service.Jon also reflects on his personal struggles with dyslexia, school bullies, finding himself as he came of age and how a conversation with Kurt Russell on the set of 'The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes' convinced him it was time to take a much-needed break from the business.Plus, Laurie and Jon share their “How Did You Meet” story. It happened at an autograph show where Laurie came over to his booth to chat with Stanley Livingston. Lassie having taught Jon well in the art of non-verbal communication, Jon kicked Stan under the table which is code for, “What the heck, Stan!? Introduce me to this lovely woman!” All that plus Weezy and Fritz are recommending Hollywood Con Queen and Sugar, both on Apple TV+.Path Points of Interest:Jon ProvostTimmy's In The Well by Jon Provost & Laurie JacobsonJon Provost on WikipediaJon Provost on FacebookLaurie JacobsonLaurie Jacobson's Amazon Author PageLaurie Jacobson on InstagramProvost Pet SprayMuttvilleHollywood Con Queen on Apple +Sugar on Apple +

Johnny Guitar (1954): It’s unusual, it’s weird, and it’s unlike any other film made by these stars. And it’s our first LTS western. Because maybe your show runner has a slightly twisted appreciation for the genre. Nicholas Ray, whose directorial chops we last experienced with In A Lonely Place, directs Joan Crawford, Sterling Hayden and Mercedes McCambridge. It’s a story that centers female characters, and gives Joan a chance to stomp around in great western wardrobe. Poor Sterling Hayden is just along for the ride. I picked this because I wanted a Joan Crawford vehicle, and because at least two LTS regulars were excited when I mentioned it. Shelly Brisbin with Micheline Maynard, Nathan Alderman and Randy Dotinga.

NYEAH SEE!? Who says that? Who says “Nyeah See”? Is it Jimmy Cagney? Edward G. Robinson? That tiny mobster guy in the Looney Tunes cartoon? I can't exactly remember. March is classic Film Noir five days a week and we're dramatically calling it “THE LEFT HAND ENDEAVOR” because it's cool and it makes us feel cool to say it. Bob and Angela LOVE this shit so as far as they're concerned, it's bangers all month long and today is no exception. We're tackling our third Stanley Kubrick movie for the show with one of his earliest pictures and his first “serious” film (as he sort of puts it) and it just happens to be one of the best heist movies of all time. Johnny Clay's got some boys together but some of the elements are a bit volatile. There's some sad girls and some bad girls. Crooked cops, clown masks and some Pro Wrestling. Of course we're speaking of “THE KILLING” from 1956 starring Sterling Hayden, Elisha Cook & Marie Windsor. One of the most thrilling noirs this month and you really feel that end sequence. But why is it called “The Killing”, though? Which kill is “The Killing”? Of course you can often find these older movies online if you know where to look.

The Mind Renewed : Thinking Christianly in a New World Order
For the 16th Movie Roundtable—or rather Dialogue this time—we are joined once again by our good friend Antony Rotunno, for a discussion on Stanley Kubrick's classic movie Dr Strangelove (1964), starring Peter Sellers, George C Scott and Sterling Hayden (among others). Imagining the USA to be inflitrated by Soviet polluters of the domestic water supply, the deranged General Jack D Ripper, commander of Burpelson Air Force Base, initiates "Wing Attack Plan R"... and you probably know the rest! This one has been near the top of my "roundtable" list for some time, but it took Antony's particular fondness for it to nudge it into first place. And I'm very glad of that; it's a truly great film, and my enthusiasm for it has only continued to grow as I've rewatched, read and thought about it again over the last few weeks. Some say Dr Strangelove is the darkest of all comedies. And maybe that's so. Could there be anything darker than a nuclear end to the world brought about by human madness, ignorance, stupidity and hubris? Or a "Mutually Assured Destruction" revealing itself to be exactly that—M.A.D.? And yet, somehow, Kubrick and his brilliant team manage to make us laugh. Almost in spite of ourselves. After all, no matter how "over the top" it all might seem, there's always been something very real about Dr Strangelove. And I think we know it. Join us as we discuss the production, consider its themes, and reflect on (just some of) what the film might have to say to us today. [For show notes please visit https://themindrenewed.com]

(Bonus) Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (known simply and more commonly as Dr. Strangelove) is a 1964 political satire black comedy film directed, co-written, and produced by Stanley Kubrick and starring Peter Sellers in three roles, including the title character. The film, which satirizes the Cold War fears of a nuclear conflict between the Soviet Union and the United States, also stars George C. Scott, Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn, Slim Pickens, and Tracy Reed, and is loosely based on the thriller novel Red Alert (1958) by Peter George, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Kubrick and Terry Southern. The story concerns an unhinged United States Air Force general who orders a pre-emptive nuclear attack on the Soviet Union. It separately follows the President of the United States, his advisors, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and a Royal Air Force exchange officer as they attempt to prevent the crew of a B-52 (following orders from the general) from bombing the Soviet Union and starting a nuclear war.

Dana and Tom discuss the Cold War satire, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964): directed and written by Stanley Kubrick, with Terry Southern and Peter George, music by Laurie Johnson, starring Peter Sellers, George C. Scott, Sterling Hayden, and Slim Pickens.Plot Summary: In Stanley Kubrick's satirical masterpiece, "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb," the Cold War tension reaches a bizarre crescendo as the United States and the Soviet Union teeter on the brink of nuclear annihilation.With a darkly comedic touch, Kubrick weaves a tale of political incompetence, military absurdity, and the unpredictable consequences of technological warfare. Peter Sellers delivers a tour de force performance in multiple roles, including the titular Dr. Strangelove, a wheelchair-bound ex-Nazi scientist with a penchant for sinister solutions.As geopolitical tensions unfold, the film explores the absurdity of mutually assured destruction and the precarious balance between power and chaos. Kubrick's sharp wit and keen eye for irony make "Dr. Strangelove" a timeless commentary on the folly of humanity in the face of its own creation.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast) or find our Facebook page at Greatest Movie of All-Time Podcast.For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/dr-strangelove-or-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-bomb-1964For the entire rankings list so far, go to:Full Graded List - Greatest Movies of All-Time Ronny Duncan Studios
Welcome to the Jungle...We've got fun and games. Well, what we have is the 49th episode of Scene Stealers. We are talking about John Huston's 1950 film The Asphalt Jungle. For The Vault, Leo is throwing jabs and talking about Rocky III. Charles has a fresh jewel from The Vault, the highly acclaimed film about the Von Erich wrestling family- The Iron Claw. The main event is The Asphalt Jungle, featuring an all-star cast of actors, Sterling Hayden, Jean Hagen, James Whitmore, Sam Jaffe, and the legendary Marilyn Monroe. It begins as what should be an easy jewel heist but as we've seen before...One way or another, we all work for our vice. Give a listen:
But the way Hollywood of the classic era liked it best was for the actor to be “discovered.” That's right. You're sitting at Schwab's Pharmacy on Sunset Boulevard in 1937 and the next thing you know, you're Lana Turner and making $1000 a week. By the way, it wasn't Schwab's, it was the Top Hat Malt Shop. Hollywood even has a genre for this, the films of “You're going to be a star, kid.” As an example, all twenty versions of A Star Is Born, under various titles. Singin' In The Rain. Day Of The Locust. Hearts Of The West. The Aviator. The Artist. Busby Berkley musicals. It's the old story. A kid with talent and heart moves to Hollywood from Nebraska or Kansas and waits tables, or parks cars, sells newspapers, or is a hat-check girl, until their big break. Someone hears them sing or sees them smile. Or sometimes they end up like the Black Dahlia --- that's a different kind of movie. But generally, it's the old hokum… It really happened. It happened to a 6' 5” blonde-haired guy who was built like a tank, with a voice like a foghorn, who really was a skilled sailor. Who, by the way, became one of the great actors of film noir, of Westerns, war films, even delving, almost unintentionally, into black comedy and films that are now acknowledged classics, no matter the genre. It happened to Sterling Hayden. And he ducked and bobbed and weaved away from his fate as an actor, as do so many film noir protagonists. But he was caught up in Hollywood's web, for better or worse. From his life storm emerged one of film's most interesting and talented actors. email: David@thosewonderfulpeople.comWebsite and blog: www.thosewonderfulpeople.comIG: @thosewonderfulpeopleTwitter: @FilmsInTheDark
Here it is. Karate in the Garage's NOIRvember Movie #3 is a classic: John Huston's The Asphalt Jungle, his adaptation of the 1949 novel of the same name from W.R. Burnett. It stars Sterling Hayden, Louis Calhern, Jean Hagen, and James Whitmore and Marilyn Monroe. From IMDB: A major heist goes off as planned, but then double crosses, bad luck and solid police work cause everything to unravel. The Asphalt Jungle: A Left-Handed Form of Human Endeavor
"Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the war room!"REBROADCASTStanley Kubrick didn't do comedy often which is a shame because “Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb” is arguably one of the funniest films ever made. What's interesting is that Kubrick intended on making a serious film about one of his greatest fears at the time: the threat of nuclear war. But after several attempts at finding the right way to tell the story seriously (including one involving aliens watching us from above, discussing our penchant for destruction), he hit on the idea of making it funny. And his dark comedy classic was born.Join us – Andy Nelson and Pete Wright – as we wrap up our brief vacation challenge with Andy's choice of his favorite end-of-the-world comedy, Kubrick's 1964 film “Dr. Strangelove.” We talk about how we were introduced to this film and why it may not be a film that one connects to immediately but a film that one has to find the humor over time. We discuss the actors – Peter Sellers, George C. Scott, Slim Pickens, Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn, even James Earl Jones in his first screen role – and the level of comedy brilliance they all achieve individually and how it ties to the overall film. We single out Sellers, of course, as we discuss the three roles he played in the film and what makes them all so unique. We touch on the look of the film, shot by Gilbert Taylor with impeccable production design by Ken Adam, pointing out just what it took to make the war room one of the most iconic sets ever made. We mention the sequel that Kubrick wanted to make with the help of Terry Gilliam. And we argue about its placement on our Flickchart, as we inevitably do every week. It's one of the best films out there and well worth a discussion. Haven't seen it? Give it a try. Just be aware that you may not connect on the first viewing. This is one of those movies that may need a few shots. But it'll be well worth it.

"Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the war room!"REBROADCASTStanley Kubrick didn't do comedy often which is a shame because “Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb” is arguably one of the funniest films ever made. What's interesting is that Kubrick intended on making a serious film about one of his greatest fears at the time: the threat of nuclear war. But after several attempts at finding the right way to tell the story seriously (including one involving aliens watching us from above, discussing our penchant for destruction), he hit on the idea of making it funny. And his dark comedy classic was born.Join us – Andy Nelson and Pete Wright – as we wrap up our brief vacation challenge with Andy's choice of his favorite end-of-the-world comedy, Kubrick's 1964 film “Dr. Strangelove.” We talk about how we were introduced to this film and why it may not be a film that one connects to immediately but a film that one has to find the humor over time. We discuss the actors – Peter Sellers, George C. Scott, Slim Pickens, Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn, even James Earl Jones in his first screen role – and the level of comedy brilliance they all achieve individually and how it ties to the overall film. We single out Sellers, of course, as we discuss the three roles he played in the film and what makes them all so unique. We touch on the look of the film, shot by Gilbert Taylor with impeccable production design by Ken Adam, pointing out just what it took to make the war room one of the most iconic sets ever made. We mention the sequel that Kubrick wanted to make with the help of Terry Gilliam. And we argue about its placement on our Flickchart, as we inevitably do every week. It's one of the best films out there and well worth a discussion. Haven't seen it? Give it a try. Just be aware that you may not connect on the first viewing. This is one of those movies that may need a few shots. But it'll be well worth it. We promise you.Film Sundries Check out our Watch Page to get links to rent or buy this movie and everything else we've covered Script Transcript Original theatrical trailer Original poster artwork Art of the Title Red Alert by Peter George Flickchart Letterboxd Dr. Strangelove — Internet Movie Firearm Database Find source material for The Next Reel's family of podcasts – and thousands of other great reads – at Audible!

We continue our journey with Sterling Hayden as he joins the communist partisans in Yugoslavia! Sterling is getting more and more RED as the days go on. Will this pretty face join the class struggle or will he just jerk it to a boat or something.
Celebrities, by definition, live life out in the open. Spies, on the other hand, are happiest in the shadows. But rules are made to be broken. In this True Spies trilogy, Sophia Di Martino tells the stories of three spies whose fame and fortune were no obstacle to their espionage. Whether they used their notoriety to their advantage, or operated in spite of it, these glamorous part-time spooks had a hand in the clandestine history of the 20th century. In Part Two, Hollywood heart-throb Sterling Hayden takes to the high seas at the height of World War Two, earning his stripes in a series of daring naval missions for the OSS. He'll contend with the full might of the German Navy - and a not-so-friendly rivalry with the British secret service. From SPYSCAPE, the home of secrets. A Cup And Nuzzle production. Series producers: Gemma Newby, Joe Foley. Produced by Justin Trefgarne. Music by Nick Ryan.
