This week's episode of The Interviews is different class, folks. First up, Chris Hewitt has a lovely Zoom with Jarvis Cocker — yes, THE Jarvis Cocker — as the Pulp frontman and all-round legend talks about the band's new movie, the Garth Jennings-directed Pulp: What Do You Do For An Encore, which is in cinemas for ONE DAY ONLY, Friday September 18 (today, in other words), before heading to MUBI from September 25. So have a listen to this, and then catch it if you can. After Jarvis exits the building, Helen O'Hara has a one-to-one with the Danish director Susanne Bier about her new movie, Practical Magic 2, which is conjuring up a storm at the box office right now. Enjoy.
Hide your China, the boys are at it again with a drink and a discussion of 2011's “Warrior”. Gavin O'Connor's film found Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton at the perfect time, and he paired them with legend Nick Nolte for one of his best performances. Jeff also saw “Practical Magic 2” in the theaters on 9/11 and gives a mini-review. Two very different films! They both go well with drinks. Maybe wine or margaritas for the witch film, and whiskey and/or coffee (for our non-drinkers) for the MMA film. Grab a drink and join us! inktr.ee/theloveofcinema - Check out our YouTube page!

I denne episode af Fordi Film har Jesper og Lars besøg af deres (ja ja… chef, men kun lidt) kollega Benedikte Holm Jensen, leder i Nordisk Film Biografer Odense. Og ja – det bliver præcis så hyggeligt, som det lyder.Vi kommer vidt omkring: zombiefilm, dansk/svenske perler fra Susanne Bier, blodige actionfilm og sågar en tur forbi den noget nichede genre kickbokser western. Med andre ord: ren filmglæde i alle afskygninger.Dagens hovedfilm er “My Own Private Idaho” (1991), som Benedikte har taget med – en anderledes, smuk og tankevækkende film, der giver snakken lidt ekstra kant.

Nina Knag's debut feature, Don't Call Me Mama, which marks her arrival as a bold new voice in cinema, just premiered at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Crystal Globe competition. She tackles the taboo subject of relationships between older women and younger asylum seekers through the lens of complex, unapologetic female anti-heroes. Drawing from personal insight and the influence of trailblazing female filmmakers, Knag crafts a story where the setting becomes an active force in shaping narrative and theme. She emphasizes the importance of deep collaboration with actors, embracing improvisation and authenticity to capture the complex realities of human relationships. For Knag, filmmaking is as much about the journey as the final cut—each challenge, misstep, and success feeding into a creative process that demands vulnerability, resilience, and a refusal to compromise the heart of the story.Past films discussed include The Hunt (2012, dir. Thomas Vinterberg), After the Wedding (2006, dir. Susanne Bier), Fish Tank (2009, dir. Andrea Arnold), and the short Wasp (2003, dir.

Det er igen Rosa Marie Bjerre, der har skrevet og læst Og husk: de tre artikler bare er et lille udvalg af de mange artikler, vi har læst op, og som kan høres direkte i Politikens podcast-app, så snart de udkommer.

Den danske filminstruktør Susanne Bier fortsæter sin succes i Hollywood, denne gang med tidens største Netflix-seriebasker The Perfect Couple. Serien, der har Nicole Kidman i hovedrollen, bygger på en roman af samme navn og er både et humoristisk portræt af den amerikanske overklasse og en klassisk krimiserie med et mordmysterie i centrum. Sammen med Berlingskes filmredaktør Sarah Iben Almbjerg diskuterer vi, hvorvidt serien er "tv-trash" eller stor tv-kunst. Vi taler om Susanne Biers instruktion, Nicole Kidmans valg af roller nu om dage, og hvorvidt serien lever op til hypen. Vi spoiler til sidst i episoden, men vi markerer det tydeligt.

Weddings are funny things, but mostly if you're not directly involved with them. They're typically big and with that bigness comes the big drama that comes with large numbers of people coming together in one place. But there's also a commonality to these events, even if the specific rituals are different. In this episode we continue our Around the World in Twenty Films series, first with a stop in India, to check out 2001's Monsoon Wedding, directed by Mira Nair. It's a comedy that nonetheless has a dark-ish storyline getting lighter toward the end, and a second, lighter story getting darker toward the end. We see many of the events leading up to an arranged marriage of two young people. Will the events of the movie affect the wedding itself? Who knows! (Well, we do. We saw the film and we're reviewing it, so.) Stay tuned for Part Two when we go to another part of India, then jump to Denmark for After the Wedding, from 2006 and directed by Susanne Bier. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wordsandmovies/support
In the second half of today's episode, we'll be reviewing The Edge of Heaven from 2007, directed by Fatih Akim. It's a film entirely about missed connections that will frustrate you, but eventually you manage to settle in and accept what happens (or doesn't). COMING ATTRACTIONS: Put on your rented tuxedo, because we're going to a couple of weddings. First, from 2001, it's Monsoon Wedding, an Indian comedy-drama directed by Mira Nair. Although it takes place in India, you'll recognize most of the drama that happens when extended families find themselves in one place. From there we're off to Denmark and 2007's After the Wedding, a 2006 Danish-Swedish drama directed by Susanne Bier. It's a complex story about people with complex motivations, and the people affected by them. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wordsandmovies/support

The DOtD squad teams up with some parrots as they review Susanne Bier's “Bird Box”. We discuss the nature of the invisible creatures and their abilities, whether the film lived up to its hype, and we dance to some soca music. Spoilers behind the blindfold.
Michael Barker and Tom Bernard are marking 30 years of running Sony Pictures Classics, but we moviegoers are the ones who ought to be celebrating. Thanks to their good taste and savvy salesmanship, films as diverse as The Fog of War, Blue Jasmine, and Frozen River have made their way into American theaters. They have championed such filmmakers as Pedro Almodóvar, Guillermo del Toro, Agnieszka Holland, and Susanne Bier, to name just a few. And they still believe that audiences want to see good films on a theater screen. Leonard and Jessie have known the illustrious pair for many years but never engaged them in an interview until now. They have a lot to say—and a lot to be proud of…including a new boxed set of Blu-ray discs including The Devil's Backbone, Run Lola Run and their all-time biggest hit, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon.
This episode we start out fourth miniseries on 2010s awards winners! This time, we begin to cover the Best International Feature Oscar winners and In a Better World (Denmark) from Susanne Bier to start us off. Alex Kittle joins us as we touch on the politics of each country having a film to represent them, the gripping performances and how much the film feels like awards bait in hindsight --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/exitingthroughthe2010s/message

Rowan Atkinson is associated with a lot of ‘B's – Blackadder, Bean, bumbling British spies... and now bees. He plays an inept house-sitter in a luxury mansion chasing after an insect in Netflix's new Man Vs Bee. He talks about this, his iconic characters, and why making comedy isn't always that fun. Artist Thomas J Price's Warm Shores, a pair of 9 foot tall bronze figures, have just been installed outside Hackney Town Hall in London to mark Windrush Day. 74 years on from the arrival of the SS Empire Windrush at Tilbury Docks, Thomas joins Tom live in the studio to discuss how his work honours the Windrush Generation while playing with ideas of power, public space and 3D body scans. When the Oscar-winning film director Susanne Bier turned her attention to television, the result was the acclaimed series The Night Manager, followed by The Undoing. She talks about her new series, The First Lady, which explores the lives of the wives of three American Presidents – Michelle Obama, Betty Ford, and Eleanor Roosevelt.

It's clear from our two films in our current series that Susanne Bier enjoys films with complex characters dealing with complex situations. Open Hearts had two families whose lives are upturned after a car accident affects both of them. In After the Wedding, it's a revealing toast at the wedding that turns lives upside down and forces several people to reevaluate their connections to each other. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we wrap up our Mads & Susanne series with her 2006 film After the Wedding. We have a lot of thoughts about After the Wedding. This is a film dealing in a mess of a situation but somehow avoids melodramatic, false emotions. Crafting a story like that isn't easy, but Bier manages it and delivers a powerful film here. The performances of Mads Mikkelsen, Sidse Babett Knudsen, Rolf Lassgård, and Stine Fischer Christensen are spot-on perfect, but it's the script and direction that keeps the story believable. And that's with a story that has several large reveals that in any other film would be signs of it being over-the-top. But not here. Bier allows the characters to learn the information then react to it as people would. It's powerful how effective it is. It feels as if Bier learned a lot about connecting to her characters with her work in the Dogme 95 style, and even though she's not operating under their rules here, it still shows she understands the core principals of being honest. There's a lot to be discussed about how wealth affects and shapes Jorgen's thinking, not to mention how he treats his family. There are also elements of altruism reflected throughout. How does that come up with the characters and their intentions? It's a powerful film and one we're glad to cover on the show. So check it out then tune in.

The Dogme 95 movement started in 1995 with the first two films made under its manifesto released in 1998. By the time Susanne Bier made her film Elsker dig for evigt – or Open Hearts as it was released in English – it was the 28th film certified as a Dogme 95 film. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we look a Bier's 2002 film Open Hearts. What does Dogme 95 bring to Open Hearts? Because Dogme 95 is a key component of this film, how it looks, and its production – and because it's the first Dogme 95 film we've discussed on the show – we spend a bit of time looking at its foundation, its rules, and how this fits – including what rules Bier broke during production. There's a lot of heightened emotion throughout this film due to the nature of the story. We disagree a bit about the strength of the story. Is it just a soap opera about infidelity? Or does the inciting incident of the car accident connecting these two couples together make it something more? And does the fact that the story seems intent on having all of these characters do things we don't like make them unlikeable, or does it make them more realistic? Either way, it's a story dealing with a lot of complicated emotions that make for a great conversation. Regardless of what we think of the story and its melodramatic nature, the performances are great. Mads Mikkelsen always excels, and he's fantastic here. He and Bier clearly know how to tap into some heavy emotions in their working relationships. Paprika Steen may be our favorite, though, as his wife. Nikolaj Lie Kaas and Sonja Richter put a lot on the table in their roles as well. All in all, it's clear this is an actor's film. But it's hard to completely get past that Dogme 95 look, which does leave the film feeling muddy. In today's modern digital world where digital looks as good as film, it's tough to go back to a film like this and want to sit through the home video look. Still, it's a film that warrants a lot of discussion, and we cover a lot of ground with it. so check it out then tune in. The Next Reel – when the movie ends, our conversation begins!

Við hefjum Heimskviður í dag í hinni stríðshrjáðu Maríupol, og ræðum við Sergej Artamonov, sem ólst upp í Maríupol en hefur verið búsettur í Reykjavík undanfarinn áratug. Systir Sergejs, Natasha, varð eftir í Maríupol þegar rússneski herinn réðist inn í borgina og heyrði Sergej ekkert frá systur sinni í 56 daga. Þrjár bandarískar forsetafrúr eru í sviðsljósinu í nýrri þáttaröð úr smiðju danska leikstjórans Susanne Bier. Leikstjórinn segir áhugaverða togstreitu einkenna hlutverk forsetafrúarinnar, kröfurnar séu miklar í starfi sem þær sóttu ekki um sjálfar. Þær hafa þó margar sett eftirminnilegan svip sinn á embættið og nýtt tækifærið til að berjast fyrir málefnum sem þeim þykja mikilvæg. Birta skoðaði sögu forsetafrúa Bandaríkjanna. Heimskviður er fréttaskýringaþáttur sem fjallar á ítarlegan og lifandi hátt um heimsmálin, um allt það sem ekki gerist á Íslandi. Ritstjórar þáttarins eru Birta Björnsdóttir og Guðmundur Björn Þorbjörnsson.
