Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde discuss the 1992 Babe Ruth biopic, "The Babe." They introduce the film (1:36), with an overview of the script, the cast, and filmmakers, and review the 20-80 baseball scouting grades for rating the film (4:05). Amount of Baseball (10:01) is surprisingly baffling for a relatively objective tool, but our scouts try to parse the true amount given the unsatisfying, nothing-but-dingers nature of the gameplay. There is a sad player comp. Baseball Accuracy (15:00) dives in on this film's Babe Ruth pitcher erasure, including striking out Ty Cobb, and inaccuracies with Ruth's first career game and his performance in the 1916 World Series. His time with the Orioles and Jack Dunn also elided, with some unfortunate consequences including the creation of his nickname. Some examination of very young George as a rapscallion, his home life, and his time at St. Mary's Industrial School for Boys, plus Brother Matthias accuracy. Did Babe Ruth ever come late to a game drunk? There are many, many timeline problems, particularly with Claire and Helen. Ellen plays a game of What Year Is It. Discussion of Joe Dugan, Dorothy, Ruth punching an umpire, Ernie Shore's "combined" no-hitter, Eddie Bennett, Harry Frazee's sale of Ruth, the Called Shot, the Johnny Sylvester story, the feud with Lou Gehrig, and Ruth's "milk." Ruth's relationship with Miller Huggins, and his desire to become a manager himself, including anecdotes with Frank Navin and Connie Mack, are examined. WTF is up with the depiction of Ruth's athleticism, (including his purported use of a courtesy runner)? The final game has as many problems as the rest of the film. Storytelling (1:04:02) highlights this film's main problems: the classic biopic problem of trying to tell the entire life story, timeline jumbles, and the depiction of Ruth as a dumb man-child. Yankee Stadium propaganda. Ellen has a list of Unanswerable Questions. Score (1:20:10) envisions the scenario in which consummate professional Elmer Bernstein was asked to compose the music for this film. Acting (1:23:13) discusses this disappointing John Goodman performance, backed by a whole lot of It's Fine. Ellen uplifts one Trini Alvarado moment. Delightfulness of Catcher (1:29:00) had so many good catcher names and Ruth's own catcher feats as possible fodder, but nothing is made of them. Delightfulness of Announcer (1:30:31) considers the culpability of the announcers for the inaccuracies. Lack of Misogyny (1:33:40) has much to contend with given Ruth's biographical philandering, but somehow this movie makes it so, so much worse. No spoilers on the following segments: Yes or No (1:40:39), Six Degrees of Baseball (1:44:42), Favorite Moment (1:45:22) Least Favorite Moment (1:46:45), Scene We Would Have Liked to See (1:47:47), Dreamiest Player (1:49:50), Favorite Performance (1:50:28) and Next Time (1:51:36).

In “It's A Wonderful Life,” BEULAH BONDI played the most loving mother to JAMES STEWART. Ma Bailey is the epitome of sweetness, kindness, and supportiveness so it's quite shocking when we meet the Ma Bailey who would have existed had George Bailey not been born. She's cold, bitter, and unkind. It gives Bondi the wonderful opportunity to play two versions of the same character, which she does flawlessly. So to celebrate Mother's Day, Nan and Steve are taking a page from Bondi's playbook as they discuss the good and bad mothers of classic cinema.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Moms in the Movies (2014), by Richard Corliss; Actresses of a Certain Character (2007), by Axel Nissen; Irene Dunne: First Lady of Hollywood (2006), by Wes D.

However, the spirit of a mass murderer appears able to attack the living and the dead, posing as the ghost of the Grim Reaper, prompting Frank to investigate the supernatural presence. Jackson and Walsh conceived the idea for The Frighteners during the script-writing phase of Heavenly Creatures. Executive producer Robert Zemeckis hired the duo to write the script, with the original intention of Zemeckis directing The Frighteners as a spin-off film of the television series, Tales from the Crypt. With Jackson and Walsh's first draft submitted in January 1994, Zemeckis believed the film would be better off directed by Jackson, produced by Zemeckis and funded/distributed by Universal Studios. The visual effects were created by Jackson's Weta Digital, which had only been in existence for three years. This, plus the fact that The Frighteners required more digital effects shots than almost any movie made until that time, resulted in the eighteen-month period for effects work by Weta Digital being largely stressed. Despite a rushed post-production schedule, Universal was so impressed with Jackson's rough cut on The Frighteners, the studio moved the theatrical release date up by three months. The film was not a box office success, but received generally positive reviews from critics.

Um clássico da literária da autora Louisa May Alcott, já foi adaptada inúmeras vezes. As produções vão desde filmes, séries de TV e até em animações. E conta a história de quatro irmãs, e a luta de todas elas em busca de seus sonhos. Adoráveis Mulheres não deixa a desejar quando o assunto e representatividade feminista gigantesca que existe na obra e vale lembrar que a história foi escrita há mais de 150 anos. Imaginem o impacto que foi para a sociedade da época se deparar com a história de uma jovem que fugia dos padrões impostos às mulheres da época. Jo March queria conquistar um emprego como escritora, não se "contentava" em apenas viver para casar e construir uma família. A história mostra como as irmãs lidam cada uma com a sua verdade de vida. Enquanto Meg deseja encontrar o tão famoso amor verdadeiro e construir uma família independente da riqueza, a irmã mais nova Amy deseja um casamento rico. Beth não vê seu futuro muito menos o planeja, a personagem de longe mais sensível, a aliança entre as irmãs Jo March tem sua verdade no anseio de liberdade e independência, e isso se afirmar muito em sua amizade com o Jovem Laurie, que mesmo ao declarar seu amor por Jo, não a faz mudar de ideia perante aos seus sonhos e desejos. O que poderia muito ter sido um "gatilho" para ela se render aos princípios impostos as mulheres na sociedade, no qual ela se mostrou ainda mais determinada no que acreditava. E por fim, Laurie, que rendido pelos desejos do avô desistiu do sonho com a música, para ser "homem de negócios", ir para faculdade, ter seu negócio, casar e ter família. Mas sempre que uma obra é adaptada inúmeras vezes, e em épocas diferentes, podemos ver as diferenças entre os diálogos e principalmente pelo roteiro apresentado no contexto da década em que a produção está sendo adaptada. Para quem quiser ver outros contextos da mesma história temos inúmeras outras adaptações para indicar a vcs :) Filme as quatro irmãs de 1933 - Vencedor do Oscar de melhor roteiro adaptado Filme quatro destinos de 1949 - vencedor do Oscar de melhor direção de arte Filme Little Woman 1994 - com a atriz Winona Ryder, Trini Alvarado, Samantha Marhis, Kirsten Dust, Claire Danes, Susan Sarandon, e grande elenco. Recebeu 3 indicações ao Oscar, melhor atriz para Winona, melhor trilha sonora e melhor figurino. E ao todo foi indicado para mais de 6 premiações diferentes.
