Podcast appearances and mentions of william dieterle

Se inicia la película con una introducción de John Keats, los versos inmortales de una de sus odas nos aseguran que la belleza es la única verdad, la que nos alumbra, es todo lo que queremos conocer en esta vida. Transita el film de William Dieterle y el productor O Selznick por mundos imaginarios, universos brumosos y visitantes fantasmales. Un film a sentir desde el corazón, con tonos surrealistas y oníricos, una sensualidad profunda y etérea como los motivos de Debussy en la banda sonora compuesta por Dmitri Tiomkim. Jennie desenfoca el encuadre a lo largo del metraje, en su primera aparición detrás de un muñeco de nieve es una cría inquieta con ropajes de otra época. Jennie canta con aire fantasmal una canción…“De donde vengo, nadie lo sabe, a donde voy van todas las cosas, el viento sopla, el mar se mueve… nadie lo sabe». Antes de separarse, pronuncia un deseo: «Deseo que esperes a que crezca para que estemos siempre juntos». La soledad del artista solo se alivia con la presencia de su musa, de la sirena que atraviesa el umbral del tiempo y terminará siendo retratada para siempre. A Jennie solo la ve el pintor, espera siempre su llegada, él ve más allá que el resto, más que la dueña de la galería de arte, más que su amigo el mecánico que le invita a comer. Y ella al principio niña, va creciendo en cada encuentro, un eco que procede de otro tiempo para dar solaz a un solitario. Son Las tres edades de la mujer, la infancia, la juventud y la senectud, Ethel Barrymore, la dueña de la galería, fue Jennie también y perdió un amor mucho tiempo atrás. Y nosotros, como espectadores, entramos en el juego, narrado de maravilla, con un espléndido trabajo del operador Joseph H August en un rodaje largo , no eran capaces de conseguir la luz adecuada y el mismo murió en el rodaje, sustituido por Lee Garmes. Esta noche encontramos el chal de Jennie de nuevo… José Miguel Moreno, Raúl Gallego y Zacarías Cotán

The 628th edition of Have You Ever Seen has Ryan doing a monologue about The Hunchback Of Notre Dame. William Dieterle directs this adaptation of Victor Hugo's tragic novel as a strange love triangle, with both Cedric Hardwicke's Frollo and Charles Laughton's Quasimodo falling hard for Maureen O'Hara's Esmeralda. Perc Westmore's makeup and many other technical aspects of this production are quite impressive, but the huge Notre Dame set and Laughton's performance as the title character are A+. A theme of persecution by both the fickle masses and by the bloodthirsty powers-that-be was timely when Hunchback was made in the late '30s, but it unfortunately remains relevant today. And while the Hunchback Of Notre Dame is not a fun film, it's a pretty terrific one. Try Sparkplug Coffee. They give our listeners a 20% discount just by using our "HYES" promo code.

Happy Halloween!The Filmversation crew decided to make a pact with the devil this Halloween. We're hoping to sell our souls to get access to the Criterion Closet. In return, we watch two movies about devil intervention and power acquisition.William Dieterle brings the old folk tale to life when a poor farmer makes a deal with devil to secure gold and good luck. 1941's The Devil & Daniel Webster, also known as All That Money Can Buy, puts a folky twist on the pursuit of greed and the follies that come with wealth.Marcel Carné brings The Devil's Envoys to the big screen. A pair of the dark lord's henchmen descend on a castle and create rifts in the romance as the power of love is put to the test.Both films feature memorable performances by actors playing the devil. The pair examine how different geographies elicit different attributes in the mythological dark lord.

This special bonus episode of our season on the awesome movie year of 1939 features William Dieterle's adaptation of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Directed by William Dieterle from a screenplay by Sonya Levien and starring Charles Laughton, Maureen O'Hara, Cedric Hardwicke, Thomas Mitchell and Edmond O'Brien, The Hunchback of Notre Dame was the first sound film adapted from Victor Hugo's classic novel.The contemporary reviews quoted in this episode come from Frank S. Nugent in The New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/1940/01/01/archives/the-screen-in-review-hunchback-of-notre-dame-with-charles-laughton.html), John Mosher in The New Yorker, and The Film Daily.Visit https://www.awesomemovieyear.com for more info about the show.Make sure to like Awesome Movie Year on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/awesomemovieyear and follow us on Twitter @AwesomemoviepodYou can find Jason online at http://goforjason.com/, on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/JHarrisComedy/, on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/jasonharriscomedy/ and on Twitter @JHarrisComedyYou can find Josh online at http://joshbellhateseverything.com/, on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/joshbellhateseverything/ and on Twitter @signalbleedYou can find our producer David Rosen's Piecing It Together Podcast at https://www.piecingpod.com, on Twitter at @piecingpod and the Popcorn & Puzzle Pieces Facebook Group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/piecingpod.You can also follow us all on Letterboxd to keep up with what we've been watching at goforjason, signalbleed and bydavidrosen.Subscribe on Patreon to support the show and get access to exclusive content from Awesome Movie Year, plus fellow podcasts Piecing It Together and All Rice No Beans, and music by David Rosen: https://www.patreon.com/bydavidrosenAll of the music in the episode is by David Rosen.

MGM, 1944 is an odd one. First, MGM's effort to help the war, Song of Russia (directed by Gregory Ratoff), prompts us to ask the question, "What were all of these Communist writers doing working for Louis B. Mayer?" And then, William Dieterle's Kismet, starring Ronald Colman as an amoral magician with misguided plans for his daughter's future, proves to have more to recommend it than just the campy set-piece for which Marlene Dietrich painted her legs gold. Despite the box office failure of Kismet, lavish Technicolor fantasy will have more to do with the future of MGM than Popular Front romance, but in any case, the era of Mickey and Judy and family values is over.    Time Codes: 0h 00m 45s:      SONG OF RUSSIA [dir.

The movies we discussed for our 2022 Christmas Special Subject are a little on the dark side, as all great Christmas movies are, but these one perhaps more obviously than ever. We paired Mitchell Leisen's Remember the Night (1940), with a screenplay by Preston Sturges, with William Dieterle's I'll Be Seeing You (1944), two movies about women who've fallen afoul of the law, and whose experience of falling out of step with society is contrasted with the comforts that bourgeois family life can offer. We zero in on the complexity of Barbara Stanwyck's relationship with her own morality in Remember the Night and the relationship that develops between Ginger Rogers and Joseph Cotten's traumatized soldier, who struggles with a different kind of alienation, in I'll Be Seeing You. We also discuss the way that the two movies associate the holiday season and spirit with the material and emotional comforts of bourgeois family life even while showing that the empathy fostered by the latter has limitations.  Time Codes: 0h 1m 00s:        REMEMBER THE NIGHT (1940) [dir.

Our RKO 1941 episode turns out to be well-timed, giving us an opportunity to weigh in on the 2022 Sight & Sound Critics' Poll, canon formation, and the uses (if any) of canons. From there we segue into a discussion of Orson Welles' Citizen Kane and its place in the cinematic canon, and then into a discussion of the film itself, and especially Kane's relationship with Susan Alexander Kane. Our second film, another unique work of art from the brief period when RKO's motto was Genius Over Showmanship, is William Dieterle's The Devil and Daniel Webster. We talk about it as a Popular Front movie, and how it may succeed and fail in that regard, as well as about the way it presents human nature and the concept of evil.  Time Codes: 0h 01m 00s:      2022 Sight and Sound Poll  0h 23m 13s:      CITIZEN KANE [dir.

In this weeks episode we talk weird measurements and the classic film noir Dark City! Dark City is a 1950 American film noir crime film starring Charlton Heston in his Hollywood debut, and featuring Lizabeth Scott, Viveca Lindfors, Dean Jagger, Don DeFore, Ed Begley, Jack Webb and Harry Morgan. It was produced by Hal B. Wallis and directed by William Dieterle. This was Heston's first appearance in a professional film production, following his participation in David Bradley's amateur Peer Gynt (1941) and semi-professional Julius Caesar (1950). In later interviews, he would refer to Dark City as "definitely not an 'A' picture, but a pretty good 'B'." Webb and Morgan would go on to famously co-star in the popular police drama television series Dragnet. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/speakeasy-noircast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/speakeasy-noircast/support

In the tenth episode of Season 7 (Fantastical Realities) Kyle is joined by screenwriter David Gutierrez and editor Kristi Shimek (of Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist) to discuss another of William Dieterle's experimental fantasies, the David O. Selznick micromanaged production about the everlasting and romantic impact of the artistic muse on the artistic soul in Portrait of Jennie (1948).

In the seventh episode of Season 7 (Fantastical Realities) Kyle is joined by script supervisor Katy Baldwin and fellow podcaster Zax Protzmann to discuss the a technical and enrapturing slice of Americana that takes a home-spun folklore of deceptive deals, immoral paths, and the saving grace of patriotism to a glorious level of immersion in William Dieterle's adaptation of the fable The Devil & Daniel Webster (1941).

This week, we take a trip to Paris and cover the 1939 version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame! From the beloved Victor Hugo literary classic to the silver screen, this timeless tale of humanity (and all of the passion, cruelty, kindness it contains) has captured hearts throughout centuries.  If you're a history buff, in addition to being a film buff, you'll be fascinated to learn how the movie's screenwriters created a metaphor for real-world events leading up to World War II.  We're so grateful a listener recommended watching this film (the first time for us!); it's a wonderful way to become more acquainted with Quasimodo's story beyond the 1996 Disney retelling! Please Comment, Rate, and Share our episodes and tell us what you like and what you want to hear more of!—Be sure to check us out onOur website: https://the-old-soul-movie-podcast.simplecast.com/FacebookTwitter: @oldsoulpodInstagram: @oldsoulmoviepodcast

In Part 1 of our Anna Magnani Sampler, we explore a range of the legendary Italian actress's modes and moods: from the neorealism of Rossellini's Rome, Open City (1945) to the postmodernism of Renoir's The Golden Coach (1952); from a working-class mother's tragi-comic attempt to make her daughter into a neorealist child star in Visconti's Bellissima (1951) to an ex-prostitute's tragi-heroic attempt to keep history from repeating itself with her equally stymied and frustrated sister in Dieterle's Vulcano (1950). Larger-than-life? True-to-life? The definition or antithesis of a star? We try to get a grip on the mercurial Magnani.    Time Codes: 0h 01m 00s:                Rome: Open City (1945) [dir.

Satan Met a Lady is an infernal 1936 detective picture from William Dieterle starring Bette Davis and Warren William. The film is the second of three movies based off Dashiell Hammett's classic novel The Maltese Falcon to come out between 1931 and 1941. And the second time was certainly not the charm! Basically, the story is that a devilishly annoying detective and a bunch of crooks, including Davis' character, are after a bejeweled trumpet. And Áine and Kevin are here to share that the film truly blows.Beware!

Book:  The Hunchback of Notre-Dame              by Victor Hugo ​ Film:    The Hunchback of Notre-Dame              (1939)   Published in 1831, Victor Hugo would make a stand against Gothic buildings being modernised or torn down to make way for more modern buildings.  Notre-Dame is a main character within the text creating long standing narrative about the famous building that doesn’t really add to the story.    In 1939, William Dieterle would direct and the film stars Charles Laughton and Maureen O’Hara in the starring roles.  The film would tack on a happy ending that most film adaptions still use creating a romantic dramatic film.  Paris and Notre-Dame were built on a western ranch in Culver City and the film would have the essence of World War II as it stirs up feelings of Jews displacement during this time.  The film would become a box office hit.  The film was made for $1.8 million and considered one of the most expensive films by RKO at that time.   We are joined by Shanta Pasika, Hexane Arcane.  Make sure you watch her show and share, comment, like and subscribe.  She can be found at the following links:   www.hexenarcane.com hexenarcanehorror@gmail.com youtube.com/hexenarcane Hexen Arcane on Amazon Prime in US and UK https://www.facebook.com/hexenarcane     Opening Credits; Introduction (.51); Plot Synopsis (10.21); Forming the Plot (11.52); Book Thoughts (16.44); Final Thoughts of Book (1:02.52); Introducing a Film (1:08.18); Film Trailer (1:09.07);  Lights, Camera, Action (1:10.51); Epilogue (1:37.18); End Credits (1:47.05); Closing Credits (1:48.50)   Closing Credits – Of Monster and Men by Human from the album Beneath the Skin.  Copyright 2015 Sony ATV Music Publishing   Original Music copyrighted 2020 Dan Hughes Music and the Literary License Podcast.    All rights reserved.  Copyright reserved.

Fox, 1933: we watch a couple of movies that complicate Ethan Mordden's characterization of Fox as “The Rube,” Henry King's State Fair and William (billed as Wilhelm) Dieterle's The Devil's in Love (both beautifully shot by Hal Mohr). The first is a sophisticated movie about simple people that doesn't make fun of them or take unsophistication as its ideal, while the second is Fox's attempt at a Sternberg movie, a Foreign Legion quadrangle with a strange climactic twist.

Perhaps the most in-depth analysis possible is focused on an entire film minute by minute. This week's guest Blake Howard has patented that very idea in the format of his highly popular podcast One Heat Minute. Interviewing a guest every week and assigning them a minute from the film, this deep-dive podcast represents a synergy between obsessional fandom, close textual analysis, and explorations of what film means to those who see the form as part of their very identity. The first film that was the subject of this was Heat, and it was a testament to the success of the show that the director, Michael Mann was the final guest of that series. Since then Blake has done series: The Last (12 minutes) of the Mohican's, All the President's Minutes (his current podcast on which Dario recently appeared) and two spin-off shows which he produces: Increment Vice and the upcoming Josie and the Podcats. He has also recently start con-TEN-gen, the film critic's response to the impact of the coronavirus on his colleagues and friends. In this episode, Dario and Blake realise they have a parallel history in their film education and their taste in films. They discuss Blake's history as a film journalist at the beginnings of the digital age, the challenges and rewards of the 'one-minute' format, film podcasts as a genre, and the possibility of a cinematic experience without images. In this episode, Neil also reviews three reissues from Eureka/Masters of Cinema: Syncopation (William Dieterle, 1942) Buster Keaton's MGM Boxset, Long Day's Journey into Night (Sidney Lumet, 1962).

So, that plan to build up to No Time to Die went well, didn't it? Nevertheless, we're pressing on, with Mark reviewing George Lazenby's sole turn as Bond in the much-misunderstood On Her Majesty's Secret Service. This was worth it if only for the Dick Van Dyke anecdote. Before that, we've got another point on the most competitive grading curve in Hollywood (well, apart from Paul Thomas Anderson) as we ask where Onward fits into Pixar's canon. Relax: this tale of two elven brothers on a quest for one more day with their dad is not Cars 2. And Mick drops by to review Eureka Video's Syncopation, a newly reissued jazz drama from Golden Age Hollywood auteur William Dieterle.

This week, for Warners Bros. 1931: THE MALTESE FALCON (dir. Roy Del Ruth) and THE LAST FLIGHT (dir. William Dieterle). Warners is an early adopter of Dashiell Hammett, but is his least political novel a good fit for the most political studio, or not? And Dieterle, in his first English-language film, turns Warners into Paramount and tackles the Lost Generation, introducing themes that he'll continue to explore in his WWII films with Joseph Cotten.

We have a conversion experience with DUEL IN THE SUN (King Vidor, 1946) and return to PORTRAIT OF JENNIE (William Dieterle, 1948). Are these the two definitive Jennifer Jones movies? The best movies she made? The best movies that Selznick produced? We consider these questions as we continue to ponder the unfolding of Jones's persona. We also set up our Scorsese Corner and begin our floating discussion of the current TIFF retrospective with our first-impression reading of THE IRISHMAN.

Izzy and Mark gather round the microphone to discuss the real lives recreated on celluloid that went on to win Best Picture.  The Life of Emile Zola directed by William Dieterle portrays the life of the great french playwright and author (played by Paul Muni), focussing in particular on the Dreyfuss Affair of 1894-1906. Often called the greatest biopic ever made, Izzy and Mark discuss whether they agree with this moniker, particularly within the social context of the time. Based on the 1853 memoir of Solomon Northup, Twelve Years A Slave tells Solomon's story of being a free-born African American from Washington DC, kidnapped and then sold into slavery into Louisiana until freed twelve years later. Directed by Steve McQueen and Starring Chiwetel Ejiofor, the film was nominated for nine oscars, going on to win three. Thank you to Thomas Whitelaw for our intro music and Rachel Valentine Smith for our artwork.

Das Jahr 1949 gilt als Schlüsseljahr in der Geschichte des italienischen Neorealismus, dieser besonderen Filmschule, verbunden mit großen Namen wie Federico Fellini, Luchino Visconti oder Roberto Rossellini. In eben diesem Jahr entstanden, fast am gleichen Ort, die Filme "Stromboli" und "Vulcano". Zwei Regisseure - Rossellini und der aus Hollywood zurückgekehrte William Dieterle - drehten in der Inselwelt vor Sizilien gewissermaßen um die Wette und waren mit einem vielschichtigen Skandal konfrontiert. Ein Rückblick auf diese Filme und auf den "neorealismo italiano".

The Spanish Civil War of 1936-39 inspired artists, writers and filmmakers at home and abroad to make work in support of the struggle against fascism and, in some cases, to fight for the Spanish Republic. This week, Juliet talks to writer/translator Lara Alonso Corona about the various reactions to the war, General Franco's victory and consolidation of fascist power in Spain, from before the conflict began in July 1936 to the present.

On this episode, we are discussing the tenth Best Picture Winner: “The Life of Emile Zola.” After struggling to establish himself, author Emile Zola wins success writing about the unsavory side of Paris and settles into a comfortable upper-class life. However, Zola's complacency is shaken when Jewish officer Alfred Dreyfus is wrongfully imprisoned for being a spy. Realizing that Dreyfus is an innocent victim of anti-Semitism, Zola boldly pens a newspaper article exposing the truth, is charged with libel and must defend himself in a dramatic courtroom testimony. Directed by William Dieterle, “The Life of Emile Zola” stars Paul Muni as Emile Zola, Gloria Holden as Alexandrine Zola, Gale Sondergaard as Lucie Dreyfus, and Joseph Schildkraut as Capt. Alfred Dreyfus. Here on The Envelope, we discuss & review every Best Picture Winner in the Academy Awards History. We are a Cinema Squad Production, presented on the Cinema Squad Podcast Channel.

Two great issues for you this time as Morrison charts the agony of the human (and dolphin) condition on a graph (where the X-axis is social, the Y-axis is existential). In #15, Buddy (and friends) plunge headlong into the deep waters of political violence and cultural imperialism. In #16, time and mortality themselves take the lead role in bedeviling our players. There's no shortage of things to talk about, and very little to feel certain about (other than the emotional impact of these two very different tales). The discussion ranges widely, even encompassing several films by one of the great unsung directors of the Studio Age (William Dieterle). Speaking of William Dieterle - check out Elise's essay on the brilliant Portrait of Jennie (1948) in (online) issue #58 of Bright Wall/Dark Room Intro Song: New Kingdom - "Horse Latitudes" You can always write us at anotherkindofdistance@gmail.com, or contact us through our Facebook Page or our Twitter accounts @milescoverdale and @rhodaAF709  We're on all of the podcast delivery services, including iTunes, TuneIn radio and Stitcher, so please rate/review us there, if you can!

{{Discaimer}} This episode sounds a bit "hollow", as we tried to record it with a fan on and then removed the noise in edits. Think of it as a communique from the liminal realm beyond the 4th dimension.  {{End of disclaimer}} We begin in a state of heated passion, with a pair of meditations on love, artistic inspiration, renunciation, and the tragic fate of time tossed muses.    Our travels commence with Jeannot Szwarc's Somewhere in Time (1980), starring Christopher Reeve, Jane Seymour, Christopher Plummer, and Teresa Wright.    Then it's on to William Dieterle's magnificent Portrait of Jennie (1948), Luis Bunuel's favourite Hollywood film (and who are we to disagree with Bunuel?).     We hope you've enjoyed our ramblings - there's a lot more to come! We'll be setting up a Facebook account for the podcast in the not too distant future, but, for now, you can always write to us at anotherkindofdistance[at]gmail.com.  Please let us know what you think of our approach - and chime in with your own impressions. We're all living in the same time period - we ought to take advantage of that, don't you think?
