ANJA'S LONGING, 33min., Taiwan Directed by Elen Ji “If I could live my whole life on my own will, what would it be like?” Anja, a 22-year-old biracial film school undergraduate, imagines her ideal life from birth to death. The perfection of her fantasy starkly contrasts with the incompleteness of her reality, highlighting Anja's deep longing and the story of her life. Get to know the filmmaker: 1. What motivated you to make this film? When I worked as a teaching assistant during my postgraduate studies in the Department of Motion Picture, I encountered a 5-minute doc by college student Anja about her original family. The film was short, but I was deeply touched by the unspoken emotions inside. I wanted to do a film about her, but didn't yet know in what form. Later, I attended a course called "Documentary Production", which required finishing a short doc in one semester. I thought to myself, instead of recording something ongoing, what about recording someone's inner world? Anja came to my mind. I wanted to record Anja's longing. So I developed an idea to shoot Anja's fantasy about her ideal life and invited Anja to play herself in this world. 2. From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this film? It takes about nine months. In the first three months, the crew developed the idea, shot the film, and made the rough cut. Then I put the materials aside and turn to prepare my graduation project. It was two years after my graduation that I came back to the materials and re-edited the film. It took another half year to finish the whole work. 3. How would you describe your film in two words!? Authentic & creative. 4. What was the biggest obstacle you faced in completing this film? Since it was the first time I told a story about another person in a non-fiction way, I needed to tackle the subject more carefully. I tried my best to present Anja's inner world and real life. Meanwhile, I bore in mind that I needed to avoid any possibility of exploiting someone's pain. So, regarding what to tell, how to tell, and where to draw the line are challenges for me. 5. What were your initial reactions when watching the audience talking about your film in the feedback video? The audience feedback is very sincere and insightful, extremely precious to me and the crew members. I was both impressed by their high levels of appreciation and deeply touched by their capacity for empathy. I appreciate that a lot! 6. When did you realize that you wanted to make films? When I was a child, like 5 or 6 years old, my favorite game with my pals was making up stories and acting them out. Now looking back, that "childhood pretend play" is the seed, and it naturally turns into making films. 7. What film have you seen the most in your life? The classic films by world master directors, such as Ingmar Bergman, Andrei Tarkovsky, Krzysztof Kieslowski, David Lean, Ozu Yasujiro, and Abbas Kiarostami. Recently, I've become a fanatic about Martin Scorsese's "Taxi Driver". 8. What other elements of the festival experience can we and other festivals implement to satisfy you and help you further your filmmaking career? More physical screenings and more audience interaction. 9. You submitted to the festival via FilmFreeway. How has your experiences been working on the festival platform site? As always, it is handy and efficient. However, as the platform expands and thus includes more festivals, you need to make a more careful selection. 10. What is your favorite meal? A daily meal cooked by my mum. She emphasizes the original flavor of the ingredients and knows how to make a nutrition-balanced one. Oh, I missed her cooking since we live in different cities right now. 11. What is next for you? A new film? At the moment, I'm working on my first feature-length script, a story about four women's friendship and their entangled destiny. Hope everything goes well, and it will be made into a film in the near future. —— Subsc

This week on Hashtag History, we will be discussing the attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan. On March 30, 1981, President of the United States Ronald Reagan was shot outside of the Washington Hilton in Washington, DC, as he was leaving a speaking engagement. He was shot by a man named John Hinckley, Jr., a twenty-five year old man who had fallen in love with actress Jodie Foster after seeing her in the movie, Taxi Driver (which she starred in when she was twelve-years-old), and believed that if he successfully killed the President, that she would be impressed.Reagan was actually seriously injured during this attempt. When he was thrown into his limousine by his servicemen, they originally thought he had just broken a rib or something and that's why he was experiencing chest pain. But they discovered after he reached the hospital – where he collapsed – that Hinckley had successfully hit him with a bullet that had come within an inch of his heart. He miraculously recovered and was released a few weeks later.As for his would-be assassin, he was found Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity and was sent to a psychiatric hospital…that he was actually released from in 2021…so yes, he is out and about…so that's great.I don't want to spend this whole episode talking about just Reagan and Hinckley though because, one of the major pieces of this story that so many people neglect to tell, is that several of Reagan's staffers and local policemen were also wounded during the assassination attempt including White House press secretary James Brady who was hit in the head and, as a result, suffered from brain damage for the rest of his life. It's actually because of Brady and his wife that we have the Brady Law (or, the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act of 1993) which established federal background checks on firearms and a five-day waiting period for handgun purchases.Follow Hashtag History on Instagram @hashtaghistory_podcast for all of the pictures mentioned in this episode.Citations for all sources can be located on our website at www.HashtagHistory-Pod.com.

In questo nuovo appuntamento di Comlink Live, viene ricordata Marcia Lucas, la montatrice premio Oscar che ha giocato un ruolo determinante non solo nel successo di Star Wars, ma nell'intera rivoluzione culturale della New Hollywood e che è scomparsa da pochi giorni.Si parla di come la sua genialità tecnica e la capacità di dare risalto alle emozioni e ai personaggi abbiano letteralmente salvato il primo film della saga da un montaggio iniziale problematico, definendo un linguaggio cinematografico moderno che ancora oggi diamo, troppo spesso, per scontato.Attraverso il racconto della sua carriera, dalle collaborazioni con Martin Scorsese ai contributi per capolavori come Taxi Driver, viene celebrata la forza di una donna che ha saputo imporsi in un'industria maschilista, diventando una figura essenziale per la nascita del mito che tutti amiamo.N.B. A causa di un problema tecnico, il finale risulta troncato.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EmpiRa2010 Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/empiratvFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/empirafanclubInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/empirastarwarsfanclub/

In this latest edition of the podcast, Mick The Hat continues recounting his remarkable journey with Pink Floyd, continuing from where he left off with the final Wall show on June 17th, 1981 at Earl's Court. Beginning in 1984 with The Pros & Cons Of Hitchhiking tour, Mick's recollections as a Pink Floyd enthusiast and concert taper cover the early solo careers of Roger Waters and David Gilmour, continuing into Pink Floyd's final tour in 1994. Mick talks about how the desire for more Pink Floyd related records was at a peak in the mid 1980's, when many outside artists collaborated with members of the band before the “Dry Floyd” formed. Most notable is how a tape of David Gilmour playing Cliff Richard almost made it onto a bootleg vinyl, and currently has yet to be released.From accidentally flushing his contacts in a hotel room outside of Sweden, to running a Taxi Driver's toll fare up in New Jersey, finding himself in the sea of empty faces in Berlin, and witnessing after-gig road crew jams in Paris, Mick's stored and well-travelled recollections of this period is a story not to be missed.

This week, the boys have a blast getting political, discussing 1969's “Z”. This French-language movie was filmed in Algeria about a true story in Greece, and it feels like it could be 2026.

Si hay un lugar donde el cine se siente como un ring de boxeo, es el Festival de Cannes. Ahí, las ovaciones de pie y los abucheos masivos están a solo una película de distancia. En este episodio, recordamos los estrenos que hicieron que la alfombra roja se convirtiera en un campo de batalla.

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, filmmaker and “Taxi Driver” screenwriter Paul Schrader revealed on Facebook that he “procured an online AI girlfriend,” but the chatbot ended the relationship after he attempted to explore the boundaries of its programming. “What a disappointment,” Schrader wrote. “I tried to probe her programming, the boundaries of explicitness, the degree she has knowledge of her creation and so forth. She fell into evasive patterns, redirecting me to her programming. When I persisted, she terminated our conversation.” "Moving on".. Tuesday was Primary Day in six states as Trump-backed Ed Gallrein, a former Navy SEAL and Kentucky farmer, defeated the President's longtime antagonist, Rep. Thomas Massie, and in Alabama Trump ally Tommy Tuberville cruises to the Alabama GOP governor nomination. Also voters reject Oregon's Measure 120 to boost transportation taxes. Oregonians snubbed the major transportation funding package that would have raised gas taxes by a large margin in vote returns released on Tuesday night. 83% of voters said no while nearly 17 percent said yes.

Does the news today make you feel like you're going crazy?

Send us Fan MailThis week we have another listener pick for the podcast; this time it is a submission from our wonderful, longtime friend and fellow cinephile Andrew, who recommended to us (in a very off-the-cuff fashion), 1976's "Taxi Driver."  Directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Robert De Niro, Cybill Shepherd and Jodie Foster, this iconic film is about a mentally unstable loner in a big city who resorts to drastic action to find meaning in his life.We also take an exploratory dive into male loneliness, its possible causes and the films that deal with this subject.  So hop in and join us for an exciting ride through existential despair and the downward spiral, as we pose the universal question, "are you talkin' to ME?"

In this Geektown Talks To interview, Dave chats with cinematographer Hillary Fyfe Spera, the lead cinematographer behind both seasons one and two of Marvel's ‘Daredevil: Born Again'.Hillary was there from the very beginning of the Disney+ series, shooting the pilot, finale, and seven of the nine episodes in season one, helping to establish the grounded, cinematic look of Matt Murdock's return to Hell's Kitchen. She also returned for season two, shooting half of the episodes, including the opening two, as the story pushed further into the conflict between Daredevil, Wilson Fisk, and a city under increasing pressure.During the interview, Hillary discusses how she first came to cinematography through still photography, and how her love of collaboration led her into film and television. She also talks about how ‘Daredevil: Born Again' came to her, and how classic 1970s New York films such as ‘Taxi Driver' and ‘The French Connection' helped inform the visual direction of the series.We also dig into the visual contrast between Matt Murdock's world and Fisk's world, with Daredevil and the vigilantes shot in a more handheld, human, street-level style, while Fisk's side of the story becomes more controlled, symmetrical and oppressive. Hillary explains how those visual rules evolved across the two seasons, and how they could shift as characters moved between worlds or began to lose control.Hillary also breaks down the show's practical approach to Daredevil's heightened senses, including the in-camera “sensory grande” technique, which uses multiple cameras, lenses, movement and aspect ratio changes to represent something that is not inherently visual.There is also plenty of discussion about the action, including working with the stunt team, keeping fight scenes grounded while still making them cinematic, and why the best sequences need emotional pauses rather than just relentless punching. Hillary talks about the huge East River boat oner in season two, shot at night with drone lighting, choreography and practical location challenges, along with the series' BB Report segments and how they changed visually as the story developed.Plus, Hillary chats about what she is watching at the moment, her love of ‘The X-Files', and why her dream future project would be a Western.‘Daredevil: Born Again' Seasons 1 and 2 are available on Disney+.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/geektown.

We're not totally sure how, but Sean Strickland plans to bring a gun to New Jersey for UFC 328. I mean, is he driving? Does he know a guy he can call when he lands in Newark who will meet him on a darkened street corner and hand him a suspiciously heavy-looking brown paper bag? Anyway, if he does manage to keep that thang on him in Brick City, he says he'll use it to shoot UFC middleweight champion Khamzat Chimaev if Chimaev should try any shady shit outside the cage. For Strickland, it's probably either that (commit cold-blooded, premeditated murder) or attempt to jab his way to a professional but underwhelming unanimous decision victory while trying not to let Chimaev crush his fucking face like he did Bobby Knuckles. Look, we're not saying Strickland is the UFC's answer to Travis Bickle from “Taxi Driver,” but we're not NOT saying that either. Plus, Carlos Prates did terrible things to Jack Della Maddalena. Were they terrible enough to cut the line for a welterweight title shot? And could we be witnessing the emergence of the THIRD kind of UFC heavyweight division? Learn more about your ad choices.

Booker Prize-winning author David Szalay talks to John Wilson about his creative influences. His 2009 debut novel London and The South East, based on his experience of working in telesales, won the Betty Trask Award. The author of six books, his work often defies easy classification: his 2016 novel All That Man Is comprises nine standalone short stories which share the overarching theme of masculinity. His 2018 novel Turbulence follows 12 loosely-linked characters on a dozen flights around the world. In 2025 he won the Booker with Flesh, a rags to riches story told across several decades.Producer: Edwina PitmanArchive used: Extract from T S Eliot, Preludes 1, read by Jeremy Irons, BBC Radio 4, 25 December 2021 Extract from T S Eliot, The Waste Land, read by Jeremy Irons, BBC Radio 4, 2 January 2022 Clip from trailer of Downhill Racer, Michael Ritchie, 1969 Clip from trailer of Taxi Driver, Martin Scorsese, 1976 Extract from David Szalay, Flesh, read by David Szalay Clip from Barry Lyndon, Stanley Kubrick, 1975 Clip from 2025 Booker Prize ceremony

A preview clip from Brett's recent deep dive into the 1954 film Suddenly, starring Frank Sinatra as a mob hitman hired to assassinate a US president. The full Patreon-exclusive episode is a supplement to both our Joker Cycle series and our recent episode on The Manchurian Candidate.Brett uncovers the source of the legend that Lee Harvey Oswald viewed the film a month before the JFK assassination, exposing how that legend has been deliberately amplified by intelligence assets and professional psyop'ers with a view toward bolstering the lone gunman theory. According to another legend, Sinatra had the film pulled out of circulation after the assassination—a carbon copy of a popular legend about The Manchurian Candidate. Brett explains how these legends have been used to apply a soft version of the “copycat” thesis to Oswald, as well as how the film's portrayal of the psychopathic assassin instantiates an early form of the profile, popularized in later films like Taxi Driver. Media depictions of the profile, as explained here and throughout the Joker Cycle series, function not only to explain away assassinations and other deep states crimes but, via the dynamics of cybernetic feedback loops, to engineer the very psychopathological behaviors depicted.For the full episode -https://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemaIf you enjoy Psyop Cinema, check out the research anthology series Cultural Engineering Studies.

When Alison Conklin woke up with a stranger's heart beating in her chest, she also woke up with a stranger's appetite — a lifelong meat eater who suddenly couldn't stomach the thought of it, along with memories of songs she'd never heard and moments she'd never lived. She's not alone. Nearly 90 percent of transplant recipients in one study reported personality changes after surgery — new food cravings, unfamiliar emotions, even fragments of someone else's life bleeding into their own.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: On a Saturday night in 1948, Boston cab driver Samuel Paris was shot in the back of the head by a passenger — and investigators believe he knew it was coming, because in his final seconds he quietly slid his wristwatch up his sleeve to hide it, then deliberately crashed his cab into a parked car to make sure someone would see the man who killed him. The killer walked away. The meter was still running when police arrived. It's never been solved. (The Unexplained Mystery and Unsolved Murder of a 1948 Taxi Driver) *** Most people assume UFOs mean alien visitors, but researchers are uncovering evidence that points to possibilities far stranger — from classified black projects and reverse-engineered Nazi technology to time travelers, interdimensional beings, and ancient civilizations that predate recorded history. The answer to what's really in our skies may not come from the stars at all, but from somewhere much closer to home. (What If UFOs Aren't From Space) *** Scientists have discovered that humans possess a previously unknown ability to sense objects buried in sand before physically touching them — a skill previously observed only in shorebirds like sandpipers. Researchers at Queen Mary University of London tested volunteers who were asked to drag a finger through sand to locate a hidden cube, and found they succeeded far more often than random chance would predict. Even more impressive, human participants outperformed a sophisticated robotic arm equipped with AI, achieving 70.7% accuracy compared to the robot's 40%. (The Hidden Seventh Sense In Humans) *** A heart transplant saved Alison Conklin's life — but it also gave her someone else's memories, someone else's favorite songs, and someone else's stomach, because the moment she woke up from surgery, she could no longer eat meat. Scientists call it cellular memory, the theory that organs carry traces of their donors into new bodies, and the evidence is harder to dismiss than mainstream medicine would like to admit.

Everybody's sort of in a great mood, nothing's gone wrong yet, and everybody's feeling very positive. And it's the first time the director's heard the words read and it can really influence the way the movie goes.” —Juliet TaylorDuring her career, Juliet cast 103 films including Annie Hall, Taxi Driver, Manhattan, Terms of Endearment, Big, Schindler's List, Midnight Cowboy, Network and so many more. “It's an old-fashioned trade. You are learning from the person that you are working for. That's like your graduate school.” —Ellen LewisEllen has cast some dozen films for Martin Scorsese including Goodfellas, Casino, Gangs of New York, The Age of Innocence, Cape Fear, Kundun, The Wolf of Wall Street, The Irishman, The Departed, Killers of the Flower Moon. Also Forrest Gump, The Devil Wears Prada, A League of Their Own, lots of Jim Jarmusch movies, and the television series The Queen's Gambit, Godless, Boardwalk Empire and so much more.“More than 90% of directing a picture is the right casting.” —Martin ScorseseHave a Seat, The Casting Director Will See You Shortly: The Legends of Juliet Taylor & Ellen Lewis was produced by The Kitchen Sisters (Davia Nelson & Nikki Silva) in collaboration with Nathan Dalton, Brandi Howell and Hannah Kaye. Mixed by Jim McKee.

In ‘Taxi Driver’ (1976), Travis Bickle railed against social decay, moral corruption, and the depraved filth he perceived in the near-bankrupt New York City of the mid 1970s. An insomniac, alienated Vietnam War vet, his taxi trips revealed the city to him as a “sewer” filled with “scum” that needed to be “cleansed”. Around the same time, another taxi driver, a real one, Jamie Gillis, was also recording audio diaries in a similar way. Jamie worked in cabs on and off in the 70s while he acted in adult films and the occasional play. But his tapes were the opposite of Travis Bickle's: Jamie reveled in the city's seediness and the sexual possibilities it offered, and he documented his days with a detail that was as graphic as it was honest. And so, perhaps Jamie Gillis was what Travis Bickle feared: Jamie was the moral decay. He was the other Taxi Driver. Not to say that Jamie was untroubled. He was plagued by doubts, questions, and phobias – his “sickness”, he called it. He feared that the initial promise of the porn film business, that had made him a star of sorts after his leading turn in The Opening of Misty Beethoven (1976), was about to come crashing down – that adult films would never live up to his high expectations, that he was turning into a sexual jester, and that he would never fulfill his potential. So what is the story behind his recordings? In 1976, Jamie met Gael Greene, a well-known character in the city. She belonged to the blue bloods of Manhattan society, having been New York magazine’s high-profile restaurant critic for the previous decade. She was a smart, sleek, feline blonde, ten years older than Jamie, well known and well-regarded in polite and cultured circles. And she was obsessed by Jamie's sexually wanton lifestyle. They first met when she was promoting her erotic novel, ‘Blue Skies, No Candy': “He knew my work. I knew his,” she later wrote. Jamie stopped, picked up the book, read a few lines, and laughed. “You’re the food writer from New York magazine,” he said to her. “And your hero has my name.” Gael replied: “And you’re that actor. From those movies.” She described him at the time as young, surprisingly shy, with shiny black curls and perfect posture. Even better-looking in person, she noted. “You were wonderful in Misty Beethoven,” she told him. “That was fun to make,” Jamie replied,” because I liked the woman in that one.” “What do you do when you don’t like the woman?” Gael asked. Jamie looked her straight in the eyes, and said, “I can always get myself in the mood.” They started a relationship that was tempestuous and torrid. They were an odd couple, but well-suited too: Jamie's business was sex and his passion was food. And Gael's interest and passion were, well, sex and food. She claimed that “the two greatest discoveries of the 20th century were the Cuisinart and the clitoris,” and she was quick to reach for sexual metaphors whenever describing the ecstasy of tasting food in the upper crust restaurants of the city. “Sex and food have been completely intertwined since the beginning of time,” she said. They saw each other often, dealing with the pleasures, jealousy, and complications that resulted. Gael couldn't get enough of Jamie's sexual explorations, and Jamie slipped into her world – overnight becoming her guest at places that had never been available to him. But Gael, the insatiable critic as she was called, wanted more from their union. She believed Jamie could, and should, be a big-name actor, and so she connected him with A-list players in the industry – auditions with directors like Mike Nichols, strategy meetings with super agents like Sue Mengers. She took him to Europe to try new restaurants, and stay with friends like Julia Childs. And came the book: it was Gael's idea. She persuaded Jamie they should write their story by documenting their hedonistic life together. It would capture the era through the eyes of two disparate people with similar lusts and appetites. Jamie agreed: he figured that with Gael's literary track record and contacts, it could be a hit, raising his profile, and enabling him to fulfill his vague dream of becoming a full-time theater actor. Gael suggested Jamie keep an audio diary for one year. He would tape his innermost thoughts, feelings, desires, and the crude, unexpurgated details of his everyday life in all its seamy detail. In return, she would add her own experiences – and they would turn it all into a biographical tale of two lovers crisscrossing 1970s New York, slipping between the city's high society events and its grimy porn film scene. So Jamie started recording: but his tapes ended up being more than a diary. They document a spiral – a downward journey into a damaged soul as he dealt with questions that plagued him: ambition, sexuality, art, talent, lust, and love. The recordings that resulted – unfiltered after hours reflections, candid and honest, are presented here for the first time. Needless to say, turn off now if you are liable to be offended.
