On the surface, these two films have very little to do with each other, but watched back-to-back, they have a lot in common.
*THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS** Buckle up, because this is NOT a fun ride...if you like hating on poorly-written novels and screenplays, it's time to get your hands dirty. Laura and Danny not only discuss, but RIP into Where'd You Go, Bernadette? by Maria Semple (2012) and Richard Linklater's 2019 adaptation of the same name. Seriously, where did they NOT go wrong with this not-so-happy tale of a young girl and her mother? #WheredYouGoBernadette #MariaSemple #RichardLinklater #FilmIsLit
Chase Thomas is joined by filmmaker Philip Musey to talk about 2019 Richard Linklater film "Where'd You Go, Bernadette" starring Kate Blanchett, Billy Crudup, Kristin Wiig and Emma Nelson.
Where'd You Go, Bernadette is based on a best-selling self-improvement novel. It stars Cate Blanchett, Kristen Wiig (Bridesmaids) and Lawrence Fishburne (The Matrix), and it's directed by Richard Linklater (Boyhood).

This week Forest and Shawn review Richard Linklater's "Where'd You Go, Bernadette", Apple TV+'s "The Servant" and Hulu's "Little Fires Everywhere"
Hans and Steven discuss the latest movie news and trailers. They react to Oscar nominations and review Where'd You Go Bernadette, Just Mercy and 1917.
Hi everyone! We’re continuing our Golden Globes coverage this week with today’s review of WHERE’D YOU GO, BERNADETTE? After this month is over, we will have reviewed 30 out of 34 films nominated, including all the winners. We’ll pick up the other four at some point this year, once they’ve hit streaming services. Also, the Oscar nominees will be announced today, so expect a flood of congratulations posts to hit social media for the films we’ve reviewed, and some early February catchup reviews for those we haven’t. That’s why we’re excited to have Ryan L. Terry back on the podcast, with his thoughts on a personal favorite of his, WHERE’D YOU GO, BERNADETTE? He was gracious enough last week to review JUDY (Episode #677), which won Renée Zellweger a Best Actress in a Drama award. Be sure to check out his previous reviews for THE GOOD LIAR (Episode #662) and I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER (Episode #614). His promo will run before the review.

Here we go! ///// > ///// Today’s movie is WHERE’D YOU GO, BERNADETTE?, directed by Richard Linklater, written by Linklater and Holly Gent, based on the book by the same name, starring Cate Blanchett, Billy Crudup, and Kristen Wiig. Former architect Bernadette Fox (Cate Blanchett) seems to have it all — a beautiful home in Seattle, a successful and loving husband, and a brilliant teenage daughter who’s about to attend boarding school. When Bernadette suddenly disappears without a trace, her concerned family sets off on an exciting adventure to solve the mystery of where she might have gone. If you loved Blanchett in her award-winning role in BLUE JASMINE, then you will love her in Richard Linklater’s WHERE’D YOU GO, BERNADETTE? Once again, Blanchett takes on the demanding role of someone struggling with an inner turmoil brought on by losing one’s identity. By no means is Bernadette the same character as Jasmine, but there are many similarities; however, these similarities are expressed in vastly different ways, which makes the story relatable and thought-provoking. If you’re searching for a human movie, then you have found the right one. The experience of watching this movie sticks with you long after the credits role. This is a film that I feel creative and academic persons will connect with, because often the most creative or intelligent people can experience bouts of identity crisis, mania, and depression when he or she is not in the process of creating something for the world to see. Whether that world is as small as your hometown, your network on social media, or the global stage, there is a catharsis that is experienced when crafting something new. Take away that creative outlet and you may as well remove an arm or leg. Furthermore, destroy that which one has poured his or her soul into, then you metaphorically kill that creative person. The creation is an extension of the soul of the creator. I imagine that my fellow creatives and academics will also be able to identify with Bernadette much in the same manner as did I. Linklater’s film is an existential exploration of the creative genius when the very foundation of that genius is rocked off its foundation. There are many metaphorical visualizations of this concept in the film, including the catalyst that launches Bernadette into her acute downward spiral–the removal of that which was holding everything together. While most of the characters are mostly flat, the character of Bernadette is complex, vulnerable, and quite human. Despite being an architectural genius of on the level of Frank Lloyd Wright – something that most of us cannot identify with – we identify with her because of the struggle to manage personal and professional life when we’ve lost our way. The title WHERE’D YOU GO, BERNADETTE? works in two ways: (1) during the second and third acts of the movie, Bernadette’s family is literally searching for her, and (2) after learning the news that her masterpiece house was bought simply to be destroyed, she ceased to be herself and became a new, even more eccentric and reclusive person. Essentially, she took on a new identity, which posits the question, “Where did she go?” The movie is a journey for Bernadette to find herself, and of course for her family to find her. Further evidence of the successful visualization of internal conflict is when Bernadette removes the blackberry bushes in full knowledge that they will make way for a landslide, even though her neighbor wants the bushes gone. Just as the blackberry bushes were the only thing keeping the hillside together, the 20-Mile House was the primary component that kept Bernadette together. When it was destroyed, so was she. Where this movie fails is in the adaptation from novel to screen. And I am not talking about commitment to details and such. Novels are internally driven whereas movies are visually driven. Sometimes there are novels that explore inner turmoil to such a degree that it makes visualizing it for the screen difficult to achieve. Without having read the novel, I cannot comment fully on why most of the characters are flat and the much of the dialogue is vapid, but my educated guess is that the novel explores the psychology of each character to a greater extent than a movie allows for. Where this movie excels is the performance delivered by Blanchett. Whether quiet or a raving lunatic, she maintains a powerful screen presence that draws the audience in to the heart of the story. There is an unapologetic authenticity in Blanchett’s performance that feels fresh and powerful. It’s a command performance that should not be overlooked. Through her character of Bernadette, we witness just how complex depression, mania, and anxiety are. And not just how complex they are for the individual burdened with them, but for those around the individual. I’m not naive to the movie’s shortcomings, but there is so much that I find was delivered with excellence that it helps to make up for the mostly weak screenwriting. I believe that the character of Bernadette offers us a fascinating character to explore as she offers great opportunities for relatability. Perhaps we aren’t genius architects, but many of us know what it’s like to see our creations destroyed or being prohibited by internal or external forces from creating. Perhaps the story execution lacked the precision that this plot truly required to be exemplary, but there is a strong message therein coupled with Blanchett’s excellent performance that makes WHERE’D YOU GO, BERNADETTE? a thought-provoking movie to watch. Rotten Tomatoes: 48% Metacritic: 51 IMDb: 6.5 One Movie Punch: 7.0/10 WHERE’D YOU GO, BERNADETTE? (2019) is rated PG-13 and is currently playing on VOD.

#84 Ready Or Not, Where’d You Go Bernadette, The Last Black Man In San Francisco This weeks’ roster of flicks are met with mixed feelings by both Ralf and Oscar. The Last Black Man In San Francisco is being received really well by critics and those who are nostalgic for childhood homes but not us. Bernadette has some good performances and charm but fails to justify the elongated first act and redemption at the end. Ready Or Not is a fun ride that doesn’t go beyond its premise and trailer when it could’ve easily provided some layers to go along with the mayhem.

Initial critical response to Richard Linklater's WHERE'D YOU GO, BERNADETTE was not great, earning some of the worst reviews of his 30-year career. But Adam and Josh find plenty to recommend in both Linklater's direction and star Cate Blanchett's performance.

Took a drive over to East Lansing this week to watch & discuss Where'd You Go, Bernadette with my good friend Carls. We both had different expectations for the movie, but were not disappointed! We talk about the different themes of the movie, and its approach to touching on serious topics. Definitely one of my favorite movies of the year! Off-topic convos include (but not limited to): Football season in EL, Horrock's Farmers Market candy. Song of the Week - Todd: Boyfriend x Ariana Grande; Carly: Summer Nights x Rascal Flatts.

Where'd You Go, Bernadette has finally arrived in theaters. The Richard Linklater film starring Cate Blanchett was set for release on May 11, 2018, but it was pushed back four times until it was dumped into theaters on August 16, 2019. We knew something was amiss with this one from seeing the trailers ever since we began the Lodgecast last year. Oh boy were we correct. Where'd we go for this one? The AMC Sunset 5 was the setting, but Linklater took us to the ends of earth and the edge of our sanity in this two-hour adaptation of the bestselling novel. Besides Cate Blanchett, the movie also features Billy Crudup, Kristen Wiig, Judy Greer, and the always delightful Laurence Fishburne. Listen to our podcast episode and find out where Bernadette went!
In this episode, Jess, Mama K & Brennan are searching for Cate Blanchett in Richard Linklater's newest film Where'd You Go, Bernadette.
The Film Board returns from hiatus this week and we figured that we'd welcome everyone back in by answering the question - “Where'd You Go, Bernadette?” now showing in theaters. The Richard Linklater film stars Cate Blanchett and is based on the book by Maria Semple. While the book is a collection of fictional correspondence meant to take the reader on creative scavenger hunt, the film sets up to be a deeper dramedy about how hard it is to be human and how we cope with managing our extreme strengths and debilitating weaknesses. Does genius come through in all mediums? When life changes our path, how should we choose to change with it? The book and movie might not have exactly the same message, so listen with Steve, Tommy and JJ as they wind their way through the eclectic journey of Bernadette's discoveries on this episode of The Next Reel.

Richard Linklater having a new movie coming out is usually cause for celebration in Grierson & Leitch land, but "Where'd You Go Bernadette" is a major disappointment. We also discuss "Blinded by the Light," which is about Bruce Springsteen, kind of. Also, in our Reboot, we dig into Joel Schumaker's 1987 teen vampire flick "The Lost Boys." Timestamps (approximate): 9:39 "Where'd You Go Bernadette" 28:04 "Blinded by the Light" 45:16 "The Lost Boys" Thanks to Dylan Mayer and My Friend Mary, both of which are wonderful, for the music. We hope you enjoy. Let us know what you think @griersonleitch on Twitter, or griersonleitch@gmail.com. As always, give us a review on iTunes with the name of a movie you'd like us to review, and we'll discuss it on a later podcast. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Publishers Summary Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, she's a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she's a disgrace; to design mavens, she's a revolutionary architect; and to 15-year-old Bee, she is her best friend and, simply, Mom. Then Bernadette vanishes. It all began when Bee aced her report card and claimed her promised reward: a family trip to Antarctica. But Bernadette's intensifying allergy to Seattle--and people in general--has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands. A trip to the end of the earth is problematic. To find her mother, Bee compiles email messages, official documents, and secret correspondence--creating a compulsively readable and surprisingly touching novel about misplaced genius and a mother and daughter's role in an absurd world.

This week on another two part super stuffer episode, Dan and Nick first talk about some of the most notable moments they've had in a movie theater! Then, they went and saw the Richard Linklater adaptation of 'Where'd You Go Bernadette?'! Then they watched the raunchy coming of age comedy, 'Good Boys'!

Ah, two movies that aren't based on a giant mega-corporate blockbuster (though they are connected to IP's, both being book adaptations as well), and meant for more "grown-up" audiences (not that they are rated R either, but, um... hey, no tights, far as we could tell, and no scenes where Brie Larson flies around the world with her hair on fire or something!) But the other question remains: Are these two late-summer offerings any *good*? Will this new film by the director of Bend it Like Beckham and the latest notch in the nothing-if-not idiosyncratic and dynamic career of Richard (BOYHOOD) Linklater give audiences what they need? Or will they leave Korey and Jack scratching their heads? - please remember to visit us at Facebook, Instagram and Twitter - Subscribe on iTunes and Soundcloud and Stitcher - wagesofcinema@gmail.com is our email
For this week's main podcast review, I am joined by Josh Williams & Danilo Castro and together we review the latest Richard Linklater film "Where'd You Go, Bernadette" starring Cate Blanchett, Billy Crudup, Kristen Wiig and a few others. Plagued by a long delayed release history, the film has finally made its way to theaters and is receiving mixed reviews. Where does the NBP team ultimately fall on it though?

Amanda and Jenn discuss international reads, Star Trek readalikes, bisexual characters, and more in this week's episode of Get Booked. This episode is sponsored by As You Wish by Chelsea Sedoti and OwlCrate. Enter our Best of 2017 books giveaway! bookriot.com/bookriottop20 Questions 1. Hi girls! I love reading about people from different countries or people currently living in different countries and would love a recommendation! I'm trying to find something that isn’t about war or racism. Maybe something a little more lighthearted- if that exists. I love both fiction and nonfiction and am very open to translated works, poetry, plays, short story collections, etc. None of my book friends have been able to help, but I'm hoping you can :) Thank you! --Bianca 2. Hi Amanda & Jenn, I'm looking for a recommendation for my book club. We're all women ranging in age from mid-twenties to mid-sixties and, as individuals, read everything from literary fiction to romance to science fiction and fantasy. We've only been meeting for the past 6 months so we're still figuring out what types of books work best. Right now, we've read Where'd You Go Bernadette (which everyone really enjoyed), Small Great Things (most people liked), Elsie and Mairi Go to War (awful, didn't even finish), Exit West (another strong pick), When Dimple Met Rishi (good, but not substantial enough), and God: A Human History (haven't discussed yet, but from our group emails, I'm thinking it's a bit too academic). Contemporary fiction with interesting, strong female protagonists seems to be our sweet spot. We have The Mothers on our to-read list as well as A Gentleman in Moscow, My Cousin Rachel and The Summer Before the War. We read diversely, don't shy away from difficult/sensitive subjects, nonfiction is ok but we've read a decent amount lately, and prefer adult to YA. Thanks so much! --Megan 3. Hi there - I'll be moving to the Bay Area soon for a software engineering program, and I'm a little nervous about feeling lonely/missing home. I'd love some recommendations for: escapist/comforting reads and/or fiction with an awesome female lead and/or books set in San Francisco. I've been reading through the October Daye series by Seanan McGuire and have enjoyed them. I'm also planning to take Sourdough by Robin Sloan with me. I enjoy most sci-fi/fantasy and read a lot of literary fiction as well. Some of my favorite authors are Miriam Toews, Mary Doria Russell, Peter Heller and Connie Willis. Thanks for your help and for the show - this podcast has helped me find so many great books! --Rachel 4. What sci-fi books would you recommend to someone who loves Star Trek? I've of course read some of the novelizations, but I'd like to read some novels that are unconnected but have a similar enough feel to Star Trek. I love the space exploration, philosophy, and different alien races working together, but most of all I loved the idealized future. It seems every futuristic novel I read, we all live in a terrible future that is terrible, and OH LOOK AT HOW EVIL TECHNOLOGY IS. There are no words to describe how tired I am of that. Thanks in advanced guys. I can't wait to hear your recs. --Eliza 5. Hi, I recently listened to your podcast about biography recommendations and can't wait to check out Cleopatra. I would love some other great biographies/memoirs about women. I would prefer people of color or/not already widely famous people. For example, I loved Stolen Lives; Twenty Years in a Desert Jail by Malika Oufkir, Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi, Unbowed by Wangari Maathai, and Mennonite in a Little Black Dress by Rhoda Janzen. Thanks! --Carrie 6. I'm on a search for bisexual characters in literature (who actually call themselves bi- too often authors try to skirt around the word). I'm bisexual myself and I'm craving representation. I find so many gay and lesbian characters, but rarely bi. I don't mind if the character is in a same sex or opposite sex relationship, I would just really like to read about a bi character. Also, while I would love to see some bi women, I encounter bi women much more than I encounter bi men, so I would appreciate it if your suggestions had both genders (if that is at all possible). Thank you so much, and I absolutely adore the show. --Virginia 7. Hi Amanda and Jenn! I love listening to your podcast! Im wondering if you can recommend some books set in the Middle East. I recently read When the Moon is Low by Nadia Hashimi and loved it. I'd particularly like books told from the perspective of a female character(s). Thanks! --Becky Books Discussed Sunshine by Robin McKinley A Darker Shade of Magic by VE Schwab The Rabbit Back Literature Society by Pasi Ilmari Jääskeläinen, translated by Lola Rogers The Woman Next Door by Yewande Omotoso (rec’d by Rebecca) White Oleander by Janet Fitch Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi Wallbanger by Alice Clayton A Dirty Job by Christopher Moore Shards of Honor by Lois McMaster Bujold Provenance by Ann Leckie Wild Swans by Jung Chang Mighty Be Our Powers by Leymah Gbowee A Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee 100 Must Read Bisexual Books post Swordspoint by Ellen Kushner Escape from Aleppo by N.H. Senzai An Unnecessary Woman by Rabih Alameddine
Becky chose Where'd You Go, Bernadette (2012) by Maria Semple, a really funny book that tracks the aftermath of a mother's disappearance in an affluent Seattle neighborhood. We cover the book's innovative structure ("a fresh take on the epistolary novel for the modern age" is something I wish I'd thought of on the fly), what we learned about Antarctica, and what Becky and I would title our respective autobiographies. Becky is a comedian who performs at UCB and with the sketch groups Girls With Brown Hair and OSFUG, and I frankly insist that you follow her on Twitter at @Beckychicoine.
My guest for Happy Hour #110 is Amanda Bible Williams. Amanda likes words and books more than just about anything. She holds bachelor’s degrees in English and psychology, nearly a master’s in religion, and a deep love for a farmhouse east of Nashville, Tennessee, where she lives with her husband and their three children. Chief Content Officer of She Reads Truth, Amanda spends her days happily rearranging sentences and explaining that her maiden name really is Bible. Amanda was such a delight to chat with on today's episode. She and Raechel Myers have something really special going on over at She Reads Truth, where they're making Bible study approachable and accessible for everyday women. Her love for the Bible is seriously contagious. If you're anything like me, after listening to our conversation, you'll want to make yourself a fresh cup of coffee, grab your Bible and a journal and spend some time in God's word. She and Raechel have just published their first "book book". I cried all the way through Chapter 7, and was so encouraged at the same time. She Reads Truth is on shelves now, so make sure to grab a copy. You know we try to keep things real around the Happy Hour, so pardon my weepiness in this episode. We'll be back with lots of giggles in the shows to come. {You can listen to the showHERE. And of course, I would love if you would share with your friends.
