For Episode 103, Andrene and Joel uncover the secrets in 1999's "Arlington Road". When an American history professor (Jeff Bridges) suspects his neighbors (Tim Robbins and Joan Cusack) of being domestic terrorists, he embarks on a solo investigation into their lives and learns more than he bargains for.
Arconada entrevista a la directora que cuenta cómo prepara una serie en París con Tim Robbins mientras reivindica un cine auténtico y sin ataduras. La directora Isabel Coixet presenta su película Tres adioses, una obra que nace del libro póstumo de relatos de la escritora italiana Michela Murgia, Tre ciotole. El filme explora con crudeza y ternura la fragilidad humana a través de momentos vitales marcados por la ruptura sentimental y la enfermedad incurable, reflejando una madurez que invita a dejar de lado las preocupaciones banales para centrarse en lo verdaderamente importante. Durante la charla, Coixet destaca la elección de una Roma auténtica, alejada de los circuitos turísticos y la pomposidad de La gran belleza. Al rodar en barrios como Trastevere o Testaccio, la cineasta busca capturar la esencia viva de la ciudad y la vulnerabilidad de sus protagonistas, encabezados por la actriz Alba Rohrwacher, cuyo trabajo define como un iceberg de emociones contenidas que sostienen la veracidad del guion. Coixet respeta la intensidad de la autora, aunque su enfoque cinematográfico se centra más en la superación personal y la libertad individual, logrando que la cinta conecte con audiencias globales por su capacidad de conmover sin artificios. Finalmente, la directora revela sus próximos pasos, incluyendo una serie rodada en París para el canal Arte, que cuenta con la participación de Tim Robbins. Este nuevo proyecto, que combina el drama con tintes de comedia, refuerza su identidad como una ciudadana del mundo que sigue en busca de historias capaces de trastocar al espectador, manteniéndose siempre fiel a un estilo personal que rechaza el bullshit de la industria.
Fernando Colomo cumple 80 años, una cifra redonda que nos ha animado a dedicar el reportaje biográfico de esta semana a este director sin el cual es imposible entender la comedia española de los últimos 50 años. Hemos charlado con otro director, Paco Ortiz, sobre un documental que estrena sobre la figura de Antonio el bailarín, personaje que no solo revolucionó el baile en España sino que también participó en una veintena de películas. Tenemos nuevo protagonista en nuestra sección “Esos tipos a los que nos encanta odiar”. Se trata de Samuel Norton el alcaide de la prisión que le hacía la vida imposible al pobre Tim Robbins en la película “Cadena perpetua”. Y en el serial de Jack Bourbon dedicado al cine de aventuras le hincamos el diente a la película que inauguró una de las sagas más populares y taquilleras de lo que va de siglo: “Piratas del Caribe, la maldición de la Perla Negra”.
Comedian and writer Jessi Klein (Big Mouth, Inside Amy Schumer, I'll Show Myself Out) and comedian Trae Crowder (The Liberal Redneck Manifesto, Trash Daddy) join Jameela Jamil to unpack a lifetime of exquisitely timed social misfires, celebrity encounters gone wrong, and the unique horror of realizing you may have accidentally discouraged a bunch of people who later became extremely famous.Jessi confesses to being Clare Danes' first hater, gently warning a pre-My So-Called Life middle schooler that acting might not be a practical career choice, then doubling down years later by encouraging Mark Ronson to stay in college instead of becoming a DJ. Things only escalate from there, including an Ethan Hawke missed connection that still haunts her soul.Trae shares his own catalogue of humiliation, from confidently announcing “I was on Bill Maher” to Tim Robbins with no follow-up, to screaming his friend GABE's name across a room full of A-list celebrities, to destroying his kids' new drone in front of an elderly father-in-law who immediately climbs a tree to retrieve it while silently judging him.Along the way, Jameela recounts freezing into a full-body malfunction while meeting Whitney Cummings, and why sometimes the worst part of a sympathetic interaction is knowing you'll definitely have to see that person again.No villains. No winners. Just deeply relatable micro-humiliations, permanent psychic damage, and the long tail of regret.Jessi Klein's book I'll Show Myself Out is available now, and she co-hosts the podcast Here to Make Friends.Trae Crowder's stand-up special Trash Daddy is streaming on YouTube, and his books The Liberal Redneck Manifesto and Round Here and Over Yonder are out now.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Today we are embroiled in a classic Hollywood murder...or the murder of classic Hollywood in The Player. We discuss the narrative dynamic between the destruction of artist and clawing up the corporate ladder, the frentic unraveling of Tim Robbins in an increasingly unreal world, and what movie we think we're watching as the ending upends the flick. This is one of the best movies about Showbiz ever made. Synopsis: A hotshot Hollywood studio executive starts receiving death threats from a rejected writer.

The year is 1992, the film is Bob Roberts... a political mockumentary satire. The director, first-time filmmaker (and star) Tim Robbins. And it's also the first film role for a lovable gent named Jack Black. We dig into the parallels between Bob Roberts and present day American politics and consider the right wing folk songs that were, at one point, comedic in their absurdity. Plus, we get into it with the MouthGarf Report, and play a nice round of I See What You Did There.Additional Sources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Robertshttps://www.cracked.com/article_40869_when-tim-robbins-tried-and-failed-to-be-the-most-controversial-snl-host.htmlPlease give us a 5 star rating on Apple Podcasts!

While not a direct sequel, Zathura could be considered a spiritual successor to the first Jumanji.

Tis the season for buying and selling. What better movie to talk about before the holiday than a movie about a car sales man who has a dog day afternoon, or as Ian says "Dodge Day Afternoon". Join us as we talk about "Cadillac Man" starring Robin Williams and Tim Robbins. We dive deep into what makes this work, the talented cast, and debate if it is a true comedy.

It's absolute chaos here this week, as Ted Bennett stands in for Joe and we welcome Heather Drain back to talk about some truly insane 1980's cult comedies. First up, little-known John Cusack and Tim Robbins vehicle, Tapeheads (1988), directed by Bill Fishman and then, hold on to your coffee cups and look out for holes in the wall, because we collectively lose our shit while discussing Jackie Kong's Night Patrol (1984).... and that may or may not be because the film is any good. Let's just say, plot is not really the reason to watch either of these films, so we won't be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for either of them. Obviously, you can always expect a little blue language on our show, but fair warning: we get a little... how you say?... ribald, on this one. Want to get in touch?

Movies. You love 'em, right? Now more than ever? The romanticism of cinema. The elegance of the silver screen. The pretentiousness of simply making money in Tinseltown. Yes! We are here for THE PLAYER. Robert Altman crafts a piece of fine art with this twisty m**der mystery about Griffin Mill, a high-level movie executive, who gets embroiled in a vendetta with a writer whose idea he didn't greenlight. Genius, right? This one is one of the good ones.
True Crime was the 94th-highest grossing movie of 1999, grossing just $17 million on a $50 million budget with a fairly limited release. Starring and directed by Clint Eastwood, True Crime was largely forgotten and remains overlooked most likely due to its release at what can be described as Eastwood's most prolonged artistic lull in the mid 1990s, starting with 1997's Absolute Power and Midnight in the Garden of Eden, 2000's Space Cowboys, and 2002's Blood Work. That lull would end with 2003's acclaimed Mystic River, which earned Oscars for both Sean Penn and Tim Robbins as well as Best Director and Best Picture nominations for Eastwood. But True Crime is still an interesting entry on Eastwood's resume, exploring many of the themes of injustice and moral ambiguity that he frequently explores in his work. So does the similarly-themed 2024 film Juror #2, which Eastwood directed in his mid-90s. So this week we're talking about them both, and joining is us is Aaron from the podcast Hit Factory.
Fellow podcaster Mo Walker joins Matt and Dawn to review four new shows available this week. Slow Horses is a massive hit for Apple TV, so now the streamer is banking on another series of novels from author Mick Herron in the hopes of lightning strikes twice. Dame Emma Thompson and Ruth Wilson lead an impressive British cast of familiar faces in thriller Down Cemetery Road. Next, and perhaps less successful, after a major run on Netflix, author Harlan Coben comes to Prime Video with ghostly new drama Lazarus. On the BBC, there's the thriller The Ridge, which stars Karen Pire's Lauren Lyle. Lastly, comedian of the moment, Tim Robbins, best known for his fast-paced Netflix sketch series, I Think You Should Leave, leads his first sitcom in HBO's The Chair Company, which is available in the UK on Sky Boxsets or NOW. Lastly, in our three strikes quiz, Matt and Mo compete to name as many dead EastEnders characters as they can. How well would you do?
Send us a textJacob's Ladder is part psychological horror, part spiritual breakdown, and all sweaty paranoia. Tim Robbins nails it as a Vietnam vet whose post-war life turns into a fever dream of demons, flashbacks, and truly bad subway etiquette. It's the kind of movie that makes you question reality, mortality, and why anyone would trust a chiropractor named Louis with existential advice. Come for the psychological trauma, stay because you can't tell what's real anymore.

This CORNDOWN starts with me questioning the flavor of a bag while whuppy keeps being normal in every way he can think of. Things get sexual with sour cream on my pants, and slide quickly into soaked chicken, plumbers in the bathroom, and a lot of broken or confused sandwiches trying to figure out what they actually want. There's a whole back and forth about fries being the same as sandwiches, extra versus more, and even hotdog buns getting dragged into it. Later, I'm accusing people of working at Walmart, I get some help carrying a chair, and Bucc gets in trouble for dipping in chili while whuppy gets a prescriptions for potatoes. It all ends with all kinds of stuff stuck in bags, great guys getting muted, and buccshot finding tiny skateboards while I swear I saw a raccoon. I love you.

This psychological horror thriller from director Adrian Lyne (Fatal Attraction, Indecent Proposal, Flashdance, Unfaithful) takes us through the horrific journey of Vietnam vet Jacob Singer (Tim Robbins) who is now working as a postman in New York City and starts seeing various horrific visions wherever he goes....could they be demons? He doesn't know but they start getting worse and worse, even blending into his everyday life....could they be premonitions resulting from his PTSD? Neither he knows nor his girlfriend (Elizabeth Pena) and the only person who can apparently provide him with some comfort is his personal chiropractor played by Oscar-nominee Danny Aiello. Eventually Jacob does get more answers as to where these visions might be coming from but those only result in more questions.....this mind-bending tale garnered a following throughout the '90's as a result of some genuinely disturbing imagery featured throughout. It also features a pretty stacked cast including Matt Craven, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Jason Alexander, Eriq LaSalle, Ving Rhames, and Macauley Culkin.WARNING: GRAPHIC VIOLENCE PORTRAYED VIA MOVIE CLIPSHost: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSee below for a link to an extended deleted scene discussed in this review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hkLhMuzk3E&t=415sSend us a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

The story so far: The boys are trapped in an underground movie store run by an anthropomorphic moleman. After a year of insane adventures, they start questioning where they might truly be...Magic mole scrolls and random scrawlings litter the place down here, so we dig through in the hopes of figuring out what Moleman might be hiding. But then the existential dread hits us...and what if we're actually in the afterlife? Like Lost? No...probably more like Jacob's Ladder (1990)!

The Munsons take on the towering, eclectic career of Tim Robbins—actor, director, activist, and, depending on who you ask, an unofficially blacklisted MLB Hall of Fame figure. We explore Robbins' deep New York sports fandom—Mets, Rangers, and maybe Jets?—and revisit his Quarterback Princess days to assess whether he's believable as a 6'5 high school QB. James weighs in with a definitive take on whether Robbins could ever convincingly pull off a frat bro, while the rest of the crew debates if he carries enough charisma to be a true leading man. We trace a recurring theme in his filmography: playing the broken husband, and dive into his Oscar-winning turn in Mystic River—should he have won over two former Munsons? Plus, we're all surprisingly intrigued by the dystopian mystery series Silo on AppleTV, and wonder if it might be Robbins' next great chapter. How does he rank on the Munson Meter?

The Cinematography Podcast Episode 310: Baz Irvine, BSC, ISC The second season of Silo on Apple TV+ is a dramatic visual departure from its predecessor, and cinematographer Baz Irvine, BSC, ISC is at the helm of this transformation. From the very first episode, as Juliette (Rebecca Ferguson) ventures into the seemingly deserted Silo 17, viewers are plunged into a progressively darker and more uncertain world. "I think the biggest challenge for Silo 17 was that, at first, it had to appear to be lifeless, but it wasn't," explains Baz. "It had to feel familiar but different; it had to definitely feel slightly terrifying. When I read the script, it said very specifically the whole silo was in darkness. Of course, there are different types of darkness. Movie darkness is very different from real darkness.” Establishing the distinct look of the shut-down silo was very important. Baz and the production team wanted a more realistic and immersive experience in Season 2, as if viewers were right there alongside the characters. Their vision included creating a culturally distinct look for Silo 17 compared to Juliette's home, Silo 18, incorporating colorful murals and varied textures now falling into decay. As nature reclaims the failing structure, emergency lighting flickers throughout, casting an eerie greenish glow from beneath encroaching moss and vegetation. Lighting Juliette's perilous journey was a key consideration. Baz conducted numerous lighting tests, and was able to request that Juliette find a functional flashlight in the script. He knew it was important to keep Ferguson's face illuminated amidst the gloom. “There's no way I'm gonna put Rebecca Ferguson through corridors and stairwells without having some detail on her face,” he commented. Baz used a range of lighting techniques, including balloons, silk, and a specially crafted soft pipelight wrapped in muslin for gentle top lighting, which added a subtle glow to her skin and a vital light to her eyes. The cinematography in Silo also serves as a visual metaphor for its rigid social hierarchy. Economics and politics in Silo is always from the top down, and both the lighting and camera movement on the show reflect this. In Silo 18, the upper levels are characterized by brighter lighting, benefiting from more access to what little sunlight penetrates the underground city. Tim Robbins' character, Bernard, as the new mayor consolidating control, is consistently bathed in light. This hierarchy in Silo extends to camera movement as well. The down-deep sections of Silo 18 utilize handheld cameras for a grittier, more immediate feel, while the upper levels are depicted with more elegant, slower crane movements, reflecting the contrasting lifestyles and power dynamics. For Season 2, the camera department maintained the same camera bodies but opted for different lenses. Baz made the deliberate choice to move away from anamorphic lenses, selecting wider lenses that require minimal focus. He adds, "Because everything is vertical in Silo, the biggest challenge as a cinematographer was constantly keeping in mind what's above and below the frame." A significant and challenging new element for season 2 involved extensive underwater sequences. The crew constructed their own specialized tanks for filming. Baz considered using dry for wet techniques, simulating underwater conditions on a dry set, but it would be challenging and expensive to add special effects to make it look as though her hair was floating underwater. They did use another type of cinema magic to shoot the underwater sequences. "All of the vertical descents into the flooded silo were actually shot horizontally, with the camera turned sideways,” says Baz. Baz found shooting season 2 of Silo to be a great source of creative fulfillment, from crafting the aesthetic of Silo 17 and tackling the ambitious underwater scenes. “I've been really lucky that I've been doing my best work at a time when we have got suc...

It's Die Hard on a suburban street!This week on DIE HARD ON A BLANK, we're looking into the most sinister street in America…ARLINGTON ROAD! And to investigate this mysterious neighborhood we enlisted special guest and returning DHOAB all-star Bilge Ebiri!After saving their son's life, widowed college professor and terrorism expert Michael Faraday (Jeff Bridges) gradually begins to suspect that his seemingly perfect new neighbors - Oliver and Cheryl Lang (Tim Robbins and Joan Cusack) - are involved in a domestic terror plot. As he mounts a rogue investigation into their lives, Faraday's obsession with uncovering the truth spirals into paranoia, isolation, and a deadly battle of wills, one that threatens not only his life, but that of his young son Grant (Spencer Treat Clark). During this wide-ranging discussion about this eerily prescient film, the guys go into detail on the career of boomer icon Jeff Bridges (with Bridges scholar Bilge) and discuss the genius of casting Tim Robbins against type as a terrifying villain.
