This week, I welcome one of my dearest friends back to the podcast. A talented freelance illustrator, blogger, and film fan, Kate Gabrielle is the designer of both the season one and two versions of our gorgeous Watch With Jen logo. As a professional artist, she's not only worked with the TCM Film Fest, Netflix, Doubleday, Mental Floss, and more but also runs her own brightly colored, uplifting shop KateGabrielle.com as well.In her third solo and fourth total appearance on the show so far, Kate returns to discuss four movies starring one of her favorite actors, the gifted Dirk Bogarde. Focusing on So Long at the Fair, Darling, Modesty Blaise, and Accident - all of which she introduced to me - we delve into what makes these titles distinct works of classic British cinema and of course, what Bogarde does so well in all of them.Theme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music ArchiveOriginally Posted on Patreon 9/10/21 here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/56012404

On today's show, it's our annual TCM Film Fest preview! The Fest begins this Thursday, April 6th, and continues through Sunday, April 9th. Helping listeners navigate the ins and outs of this year's program, is a very special guest - TCM Saturday Daytime Host, Tiffany Vazquez. Tiffany joins host, Lady P, and Flixwise regular, Kristen Sales, to offer up suggestions on what to see from this year's roster of great films. They talk about what attendees can expect as they run back and forth between the great movie palaces of Hollywood Boulevard, and also discuss this year's theme, "Make Em Laugh", and why our collective classic film loving heart needs a slate of comedy offerings right about now. And lest we forget, there's also a Sight and Sound movie to cover. This time it's the 59th film on the Critics' Poll, Buster Keaton's 1924 feature, Sherlock Jr. Brace yourself for some serious giddiness, because Lady P and Kristen lavish more effusive praise on this movie than just about any film they ever discussed on this podcast - and if you've listened to the Jeanne Dielman episode, you know they go hard for movies they really like. They delve into Buster's precision both as a performer and as a director, his persona and how it compares to his contemporaries, and why cinephiles in particular are so fond of Sherlock Jr. Plus, the gals spend a good amount of time talking about Buster's most important asset: his beautiful face. But wait, there's more! Make sure to check your feeds for more updates from TCMFF. Kristen and Lady P will be releasing special minisodes throughout the weekend with recaps and highlights direct from the Fest.

Meet The Rep Squad! Monica Castillo, Anne Marie Kelly, Lady P, and Kristen Sales: a foursome of movie nerds chatting about about the Los Angeles repertory movie theatre scene. In this pilot episode, they're sharing favorite memories from previous TCM Classic Film Fests, and offering up suggestions of what to see at this year's event. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
On today's show, Flixwise co-producer Martin Kessler and frequent guest Anne Marie Kelly, join Lady P for a surprisingly light-hearted discussion of the 43rd Sight and Sound entry: Carl Theodor Dreyer's 1964 swan song, GERTRUD. GERTRUD, a film about the ecstasy and heartbreak that comes with devoting one's life to a single all-encompassing ideal, isn't exactly great material for a giggle-fest. Never-the-less, our panel manages to have itself a good time discussing whether or not Dreyer's film is worthy of its ranking in the hallowed List. Next, Anne Marie offers listeners a primer on this year's TCM Film Fest - an annual event where movie fans gather in Los Angeles, CA. to watch classic films in historic Hollywood movie palaces. This year's festival theme is 'Moving Pictures'. To celebrate, the panelists list off the titles they're most looking forward to in the fest, plus they talk about the 'moving pictures' that they would show were they in charge. Longtime listeners may notice that this topic bears a vague similarity to some discussions that Flixwise has covered in the past, but rest assured, this discussion is completely unlike anything we've ever talked about before, ever... except maybe this and kinda this.
Getting ready for TCM Classic Film Festival this week? Then you need to take a listen to this very special BEHIND THE LENS with special guests, TCM Film Fest Social Producers, Kellee Pratt, Aurora Desmond, Kristen Lopez and Annmarie Gatti! As Social Producers the girls have each put together fun events that happen throughout the fest, adding just a bit more immersion and excitement to the classic film fan festival experience! And for those of you not attending TCMFF, all of the 20+ Social Producers on site will keep you "in the know" throughout the Fest. Kellee, Aurora, Annmarie and Kristen are live at the 30 minute mark to explain all, so be sure to tune in to listen to what they've got planned (and where you can pick up your TCMFF souveniers – new location this year)! Plus, we'll be talking the fest in general and some of our most anticipated individual highlights. But before we get to TCM Film Fest, director MARIANNA PALKA is live at the 15 minute mark talking ALWAYS WORTHY! You may remember the very worthy Amberlee Colson, Ian Gomez and Eric Edelstein were on hand two weeks ago for one of the biggest and best love and laugh fests ever on BEHIND THE LENS. Marianna was off shooting that day (on a James Franco film, no less) and couldn't join us, but we've got her now to tell us about her directorial approach not only with ALWAYS WORTHY but her other myriad of projects in front of and behind the lens. And did I say "James Franco"? Well, yes I did, as kicking off this week's show take a listen to excerpts of my exclusive interview with James Franco and writer/director Pamela Romanowsky talking their latest project, THE ADDERALL DIARIES. http://behindthelensonline.net http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com
