Podcast appearances and mentions of Virginia Madsen

Virginia Madsen is on Celebrity Jobber with Jeff Zito this week. What type of work would Virginia be doing if not for being an actor and producer with a career spanning from her debut in 1983's Class to her latest effort starring as “Dr. Elecia Knox” in SHEEPDOG, out now in theatres nationwide? Many celebrities will tell you that if not for that one lucky break or meeting, they would have been working at McDonald's, like Rachel McAdams, or a grocery clerk like Cardi B. In other words, they may have been just a jobber.

The new film Sheepdog was over a decade in the making. Writer, director, and star, Steven Grayhm, spent 14 years talking to veterans about their mental health struggles after returning home, and families of veterans who have taken their own lives. The film follows combat veteran, Calvin Cole (played by Grayhm), as he goes through court mandated therapy. His therapist, played by Oscar-nominated actor Virginia Madsen, is new to the job, still finishing her schooling. Madsen’s connection to the film is also a personal one. On FilmWeek, Larry Mantle speaks with filmmaker Steven Grayhm and actor Virginia Madsen about the making of Sheepdog and their respective emotional connections to the film.

Welcome back to The Following Films Podcast, where we dive into the stories behind the films that move us, challenge us, and stay with us long after the credits roll.Today's episode brings us a powerful new drama that explores trauma, resilience, and the complicated journey home after war. Sheepdog, written and directed by Steven Grayhm, arrives in theaters January 16, 2026, and it's a deeply human story about what it really takes to heal.The film centers on Calvin Cole, a decorated U.S. Army combat veteran who is court-ordered into treatment under the care of a VA trauma therapist in training. Just as he begins confronting his past, his estranged father-in-law—a retired Vietnam veteran recently released from prison—arrives at his doorstep, forcing Calvin to face everything he's been trying to outrun. Through community, tough love, and compassion, Sheepdog becomes a story about putting yourself back together again—for your family, and for yourself.The film features an extraordinary ensemble, including Steven Grayhm, Vondie Curtis Hall, Dominic Fumusa, Lilli Cooper, Matt Dallas—and today's guest, Academy Award nominee Virginia Madsen, whose work continues to bring depth, grace, and emotional truth to every project she touches.Madsen, best known for films like Sideways, brings a remarkable presence to Sheepdog, helping ground the story in empathy and emotional realism. Her performance is part of what makes this film resonate so deeply, especially as it tackles the generational impact of war and the quiet battles that continue long after soldiers come home.I'm thrilled to welcome Virginia Madsen to The Following Films Podcast to talk about her work on Sheepdog, what drew her to the project, and why stories like this feel so vital right now.Let's get into it.

We're looking at another emotional film this week on BEHIND THE LENS as I chat with writer/director and actor STEVEN GRAYHM in this exclusive interview about his latest film, SHEEPDOG, one of the most important and powerful films you will see this year. SHEEPDOG is the story of decorated U.S. Army combat veteran Calvin Cole, who is court-ordered into treatment and into the care of a VA trauma therapist in-training. Things become even more complicated when Calvin's father-in-law, a retired Vietnam Veteran, shows up on his doorstep having just been released from prison. As Calvin's plan to run from his past becomes even more challenging, he learns through the support of his community: tough love and compassion, that he must put himself back together again for his family – and for himself. Written and directed by Steven Grayhm, SHEEPDOG stars Vondie Curtis-Hall, Virginia Madsen, Lilli Cooper, Dominic Fumusa, Matt Dallas, and Steven Grayhm. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Did any of us NOT have the urge to turn off the movie at some point? And what did the people sitting next to us on the plane think?

A must for any Halloween watchlist, Candyman (1992) remains one of horror's most haunting reflections on myth, race, and obsession. In this episode of Cutting Deep into Horror, hosts Henrique Couto and Rachael Redolfi dig into Bernard Rose's chilling vision, exploring how Clive Barker's original short story “The Forbidden” transformed into a film that defined early-'90s horror.We dissect Tony Todd's commanding performance as Candyman, Virginia Madsen's descent into madness, and the real-world setting of Chicago's Cabrini-Green housing projects, where folklore and fear intertwine. From the gothic tragedy of Helen Lyle to the legacy of Candyman as a mirror of societal anxieties, Henrique and Rachael unpack why this film's legacy still cuts deep over thirty years later.Inside this episode:

As promised like three episodes ago, horse enthusiast and dog groomer extraordinaire Sage Porter joins us to talk HORSE MOVIES in our ANIMAL HUSBANDRY episode. First we go very unstoney with Elizabeth Taylor in NATIONAL VELVET (1944), the ultimate girl and her horse movie, which is a genre unto itself according to Sage, and we're not going to doubt him? Sage, Philena, Bob and Cory ask the probing questions here, like what's up with the kid with the bug necklace? Also, be sure you listen to the dramatic recreation of young Liz Taylor's audition for the role that made her a star. Then we go to the 80s for HOT TO TROT (1988) because YOU, THE PEOPLE DEMANDED IT! Or at least friend-of-the-show Audra Wolfman and absentee cohost Greg Franklin demanded it, which is like a deluge of public opinion for this podcast. Bobcat Goldthwait plays an inept stockbroker who gets investment advice from a horse voiced by John Candy, in what may be their worst movie. Cory stands by this one tho while Bob and Philena are in rare agreement. Dabney Coleman and Virginia Madsen are also risked their careers tho it didn't seem to hurt them. We also talk about the AI fuckery of THE WIZARD OF OZ at The Sphere in Vegas, and the opportunity to mix horseback riding and classic film screenings at the Lone Pine Film Fest + Cory and Bob weigh in on the new NAKED GUN movie. If you need dog grooming, make sure you ask for SAGE PORTER at the Petsmart in Van Nuys. We'll have him back for a dog episode soon. We are looking at finally giving Greg his Woke Trash episode to get him back on the show but we're still programming it. Subscribe so you don't miss it! Big thanks to Odie Henderson for sending me his Boston Globe oped on WIZARD OF OZ at The Sphere, even though I didn't have the chance to read from it. --Bob Hosts: Bob Calhoun, Philena Franklin, and Cory Sklar.

#electricdreams Vi ricordate che idea della tecnologia aveva la gente verso la metà degli anni Ottanta? Noi, qui, avevamo l'amico ricco che ci faceva giocare al suo Commodore 64 mentre a Hollywood si era già cominciato a cavalcare il topic raccontando storie fantasiose al limite della pura magia. I computer erano marchingegni oscuri che permettevano di fare cose ritenute prima impossibili per l'essere umano, certo, ma allo stesso tempo erano pericolosamente fallibili, se non in certe occasioni, mortali. Questo perché, di sicuro, erano macchine fredde, senz'anima, incapaci di provare emozioni. Come poteva uno strumento del genere sostituirsi al romanticismo, alla poesia, al nostro grande cuore palpitante di esseri umani? Saremo pure degli deboli e fallaci, ma siamo comunque sempre guidati da Dio e dalla purezza d'intenti. I computer ( questi cattivi che sono ), no. E se i computer provano ad essere come noi, se osano farlo; tranquilli, sarà sicuramente in maniera grottesca e stupida. Nel 1984 esce nelle sale Electric Dreams. Il film che racconta di un triangolo amoroso tra lui, lei, e un diabolico computer. Mentre il sentimento di lui per lei è bello e puro, quello che il computer prova per Virginia Madsen è freddo e perverso. Ne parliamo io e Magnum questa sera alle 21.45 durante la diretta dei Vintage People.

A made-for-HBO movie from 1987 starring William Peterson and Virginia Madsen when their careers were just getting going, Long Gone tells the hilarious and heartfelt story of a season in the lives of the Tampico Stogies, a terrible southern independent minor league team. Whose fortunes are about to change. Peterson plays player/manager Cecil “Stud” Cantrell, Who has many life rules no one should follow and Madsen is Dixie Lee Boxx who is old enough to order beer for breakfast. Long Gone can be watched in full for free on YouTube! And thank me you will after watching this hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking , bawdy flick which just happens to have a great baseball story as well.

Join us as we cover the greatest movie about a talking horse giving a loser stock tips: Hot to Trot! Surprisingly, this movie is way way better than we were expecting (which isn't saying much). It was the only starring vehicle for Bobcat Goldthwait, but also stars Dabney Coleman, Virginia Madsen, and John Candy!

Life is full of sweet highs and terrible merlots on today's Script Apart as Alexander Payne – director of movies like Election, The Holdovers, Nebraska and About Schmidt – joins us to raise a glass to an indie drama that has aged like a fine wine. The brilliant Sideways was released in 2004 and soon earned four Academy Award nominations, taking home Best Adapted Screenplay. It won six Independent Spirit Awards, was picked up for Japanese remake and instigated a huge tourism boom in the California wine country that forms the film's backdrop. Co-written with frequent collaborator Jim Taylor, it told the tale of two friends on a wine tasting expedition,  each struggling to break out of a certain middle-aged, middle-class male malaise (one of Alexander's screenwriting specialties). The result? A dramedy widely regarded as one of the best of its decade.The film saw Paul Giamatti play Miles – an aspiring author whose dreams of literary stardom are misfiring, much like his love life. Recently divorced, he and his old college friend Jack, played by Thomas Haden Church, hop in the car to celebrate Jack's upcoming wedding. But Jack – a washed-up soap opera actor – is intent on hooking up with women as part of one last sexual hurrah before marriage. Caught up in the mix as the pair quarrel and cause trouble is Virginia Madsen's Maya, a barmaid that Miles strikes up feelings for. Professing those feelings in a serious way, though, is difficult for the wine aficionado and English teacher – a man so mired in regret about what was, he's unable to grasp the now and what could still be. Much is often made about the recurring quote-unquote “losers” that lead Alexander's films, and what they might have to say about modern American man. The filmmaker, though, has always been pretty resolute that his movies centre the downtrodden and dopey simply because, deep down, these films are comedies – a genre the historically sides with the little guy, going all the way back to Charlie Chaplin. But how does he define the mix of pathos and hilarity that fill his characters? Where does Alexander's affinity towards road trip stories come from?  What's so relatable and real about Miles' fear that his literary dreams might amount to nothing – and that a life of feeling like a loser awaits? And what was the inspiration behind the film's beautiful ending – a knock at the door that we as an audience never see answered? All is revealed across a fascinating thirty-minute sit down with the auteuer.Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

You'll hear why we think so highly of this early 90's gem, our pondering on why Virginia Madsen isn't more of a household name considering her amazing talent and beauty and what we think of the movie's attempt to shift the villain in the final scare of the movie.

In this second episode of our “Merry Bingemas” series, we unwrap the dark side of Christmas with a deep dive into the horror film "Better Watch Out," directed by Chris Peckover. Join us as we explore the twisted tale of a babysitter, played by Olivia DeJonge, who finds herself in a nightmarish situation when a home invasion turns into a fight for survival. We'll discuss standout performances from a talented cast, including Levi Miller, Ed Oxenbould, Dacre Montgomery, and the iconic Patrick Warburton and Virginia Madsen. Tune in as we analyze the film's clever subversion of holiday tropes, its unique blend of humor and horror, and the themes of trust and betrayal. Joining in for unconventional festive discussion is Joseph Anthony Ruiz of @filmjar_ on Instagram and he's more than ready to tackle this modern day Christmas horror moie classic. Whether you're a fan of festive frights or just curious about the darker side of the season, this episode promises to be a thrilling listen. Don't miss out—better watch out, because you won't want to miss this conversation! Links For Guests: Filmjar_ Where To Watch Better Watch Out

Tune in as the program keeps the holiday season rolling onward for the second week of December! This time around, filmmaker friend Robyn Zabukovec (https://twitter.com/thefinalgirly?s=21) hops back into her guest seat for a breakdown of Better Watch Out, the 2016 Christmas horror-comedy that follows a 17-year-old babysitter and a couple adolescent boys as they try to fend off a home invasion during Christmastime. An arachnophobic actor summoning up the guts to work with real huntsman spiders on set, a PSA against drunk driving, and a thematic correlation that this movie may share with Adventure Time comprise some of the talking points for this episode. Directed by Chris Peckover, Better Watch Out stars Olivia DeJonge, Levi Miller, Ed Oxenbould, Aleks Mikic, Dacre Montgomery, Virginia Madsen, and Patrick Warburton.

We're toasting the twentieth anniversary of a film about wine, friendship, and love among the vineyards of the Santa Ynez Valley, California. Directed by Alexander Payne and based on the novel by Rex Pickett, this 2004 hangout/road comedy from Fox Searchlight became a critic's darling, sweeping the “Big Four” critics' awards and winning the Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar, Golden Globe, BAFTA, WGA, and Critic's Choice awards for Payne and co-writer Jim Taylor. The movie also marked breakthrough performances for its entire lead cast: Paul Giamatti, Thomas Haden Church, Virginia Madsen, and Sandra Oh. The corky, uh, quirky comedy even affected wine sales, causing a spike in pinot noir sales and a dip in merlot sales. But will praise of this film die on the vine with our three hosts, or will we find that it goes down easy despite its vintage?

Sweets for the sweet

Say their name multiple times. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing and William Chen discuss Candyman (1992) and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024), as well as Beetlejuice (1988). We start by sharing our experiences and reactions to watching Candyman, including the key imagery and ideas that stand out. We praise the score from Phillip Glass, the writing work of Clive Barker, the direction and vision from Bernard Rose, and the commendable acting work and charisma of Virginia Madsen and Tony Todd. We then discuss Beetlejuice (1988), with Sarah watching it for the first time for this episode, which then moves into our reactions and experiences to watching Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024). We talk about the connections between the two films and how we seem to connect films in more surprising ways than we initially realise. We discuss the wider state of "Legacy-quels" and the repeated trope of the grown-up lead as a sad parent. We talk about the urban and suburban exploration in both films and how it mines the fears of modern-day audiences.

The Movie Madness Podcast is celebrating its 500th episode with a conversation 20 years in the making. Erik Childress has had many conversations with his guest over the years, but this one is a look back at where Nick Digilio and him were in their lives in 2004 when they, respectively, named Sideways and Garden State as their favorite films of that year. They talk about why those films were so personal to them, almost exactly ten years apart in their respective ages, at the time and if revisiting them two decades later is the same experience. The conversation veers into personal struggles, “manic pixie dream girls”, lost opportunities and soundtracks.

In today's episode Jordan and I WILL NOT DRINK ANY FUCKING MERLOT as we breakdown the 2004 comedy Sideways directed by Alexander Payne, and starring Paul Giamatti, Thomas Haden Church, Sandra Oh and Virginia Madsen! We breakdown our favorite scenes, discuss wine culture, and much, much more! Love you all, peace.

https://open.spotify.com/show/2BsfYRiIzhDgs6EBByeUuL?si=c7f306c63a1d467a Dune is a 1984 American epic space opera film written and directed by David Lynch and based on the 1965 Frank Herbert novel Dune. It was filmed at the Churubusco Studios in Mexico City. The soundtrack was composed by the rock band Toto, with a contribution from Brian Eno. Its large ensemble cast includes Kyle MacLachlan's film debut as young nobleman Paul Atreides, Patrick Stewart, Brad Dourif, Dean Stockwell, Virginia Madsen, José Ferrer, Sean Young, Sting, Linda Hunt, and Max von Sydow. The setting is the distant future, chronicling the conflict between rival noble families as they battle for control of the extremely harsh desert planet Arrakis, also known as Dune. The planet is the only source of the drug melange (spice), which allows prescience and is vital to space travel, making it the most essential and valuable commodity in the universe. Paul Atreides is the scion and heir of a powerful noble family, whose inheritance of control over Arrakis brings them into conflict with its former overlords, House Harkonnen. Paul is also possibly the Kwisatz Haderach, a messianic figure expected by the Bene Gesserit sisterhood. After the novel's initial success, attempts to adapt Dune as a film began in 1971. A lengthy process of development followed throughout the 1970s, during which Arthur P. Jacobs, Alejandro Jodorowsky, and Ridley Scott unsuccessfully tried to bring their visions to the screen. In 1981, executive producer Dino De Laurentiis hired Lynch as director. The film underperformed at the box office, grossing $30.9 million from a $40–42 million budget. At least four versions have been released worldwide. Lynch largely disowned the finished film and had his name removed or changed to pseudonyms. The film has developed a cult following,[4][5] but opinion varies between fans of the novel and fans of Lynch's films.[6] Wikipedia Prepare for a wild excursion into the heart of Belizean jungles and the ruins of Laminai as we recount an adventure that's part comedy, part thriller, and all real-life in this episode of Sounds Awesome Patreon.

Be our victim...Well, if you're listening, you already kind of are. This week, Cody and Matt celebrate the 100th episode (and 106th film, but don't get them going) with one of the most iconic horror movie characters of all time. The boys discuss seductive filmmaking techniques, captivating lead performances, and the delicate balance between narrative and theme. They also decide to put a hat on a hat (or a hook on a hook) by diving deep into the importance of slasher fashion, origin stories that seem a little much, and filling this episode with enough bee puns to shake a hook at.There's a lot to (honey)comb through with this 90's icon!Thanks for listening!Contact/ Merch/ Follow:https://linktr.ee/nighthowlspod
