Podcasts about William Holden

Judy Holliday unexpectedly won the 1950 Best Actress Oscar instead of Bette Davis in All About Eve and Gloria Swanson in Sunset Blvd, but the Judes IS outstandingly funny in Born Yesterday. George Cukor's classic comedy actually gets funnier as it goes along, as the likable ditz Holliday grows curious about history, politics, word origins...and bettering herself. Broderick Crawford plays her uncouth, corrupt, long-time boyfriend who's in Washington to buy himself his very own politician while William Holden is the journalist paid to teach Holliday things she didn't know. And fun ensues.

Today, Matt and Todd take aim at a film that needs no introduction... but we're giving it one anyway.The Wild Bunch (1969) is a brutal, operatic action-western from the legendary Sam Peckinpah, featuring a powerhouse cast led by William Holden, Ernest Borgnine, Jaime Sánchez, Warren Oates, Ben Johnson, and Robert Ryan.The Old West is dying, and Pike Bishop (Holden), a hardened outlaw, rallies his gang for one last big score: robbing a railway gold shipment. When the plan goes south, they're relentlessly pursued by former comrade-turned-bounty hunter Deke Thornton (Ryan). What follows is a violent, visceral masterpiece that grapples with fading codes of honor among men with a bent understanding of it.If you've never seen this film, it earns our highest and easiest recommendation. Whether you're a long-time fan of “horse operas” or just discovering the grit and grandeur of classic Westerns, The Wild Bunch is essential viewing. We think it would appeal to any action fan of all ages.Matt reviews and ranks more movies including newer ones at ⁠Letterboxd⁠You can find out what he's following on Bluesky @MovieMattSirois.bsky.socialCheck out favorites of what we follow, at: ⁠⁠⁠Once Upon a Geek⁠⁠⁠⁠ and  ⁠⁠⁠⁠The Fade Out Podcast⁠⁠ As Marcus he reviews all sorts of films but unlike here, they often they range from bad, worse, or terrible at the ⁠⁠⁠⁠MovieAsylum of the Weird, Bad and Wonderful⁠.

Original Release Date: Monday 12 May 2025    Description:   Phil is back from Fort Worth, Texas, and has a Logan's Run location story to share with Dean. Phil also regales Dean with the story behind a delicious cocktail at the Grand Hotel in Oslo (named in “honor” of pop icon Madonna). Dean and Phil try to make sense of Jon Voight's plans to "save" Hollywood and how the President seized on those plans while probably misunderstanding them completely and/or intentionally. Meanwhile, "Sinners" might end up affecting real change in the film business and your friends in podcasting will discuss how. One of the all-time great actors, William Holden, and one of the all-time great actresses, Barbara Stanwyck, get discussed through the prism of two films: Executive Suite and Stella Dallas, and THE all-time greatest film (according to the 2022 Sight and Sound poll) also gets analyzed. This film is celebrating its 50th anniversary and so the conversation turns to other films of the era, including, perhaps, the greatest of all Francis Coppola films (and no, we're not talking about The Godfather Part II).

"IT'S FATAL: WHAT IS FILM NOIR?" (PART III) (080) 3/24/2025 Welcome to the third and final installment of our series on Film Noir.

EPISODE 66 - “WHEN CLASSIC FILM'S SUPPORTING ACTORS STEAL THE SHOW” - 12/16/2024 There is nothing quite like watching a film when suddenly a supporting character comes in and walks away with the film. (Think THELMA RITTER, S.Z. SAKALL, or GALE SONDERGAARD in almost every one of their films!) This week we are focusing on some of our favorite supporting charters who come in and snatch that scene right about from under the big stars. From JOANNA BARNES' Gloria Upson declaring, “It was just ghastly!” in “Auntie Mame” to the impassioned monologue about love that BEAH RICHARDS delivers to SPENCER TRACY in “Guess Who's Coming To Dinner,” we take a fun look at these powerful performances that we're still talking about today.

TVC 671.5: Part 2 of a conversation that began last week with Stefanie Powers, the actress known around the world as Jennifer Hart on Hart to Hart (ABC, 1979-1984) and the founder and president of the William Holden Wildlife Foundation (WHWF.org). Topics this segment include Stefanie's work as chair of the Seasoned Performers Committee for both the L.A. Local and the National Board Committee of Seniors for SAG-AFTRA, where she continues to deal with the recent lawsuits over ageism and recent insurance issues for SAG members. She also shares a few memories of co-starring with Harold Gould on The Feather and Father Gang (ABC, 1976-1977), as well as the story of how she and Robert Wagner met St. Pope John Paul II in Italy in the summer of 1983, just before they went to Greece to film the season premiere of Hart to Hart that year. Stefanie Powers is also featured in Vision for the Future: Capturing Inspiring Stories from Leaders and Changemakers, a new anthology eBook that profiles twenty-five visionaries who not only are making a significant impact in their respective fields, but are dedicated to making the world a better place through hope, action, and lasting change. Vision for the Future recognizes Stefanie for her work with WHWF.org, the nonprofit organization that Stefanie established in 1982 that continues and furthers the conservation work of William Holden in East Africa. Vision for the Future is available for free at visionforthefuture.ai.

TVC 670.4: Ed welcomes back Stefanie Powers, the actress known around the world as Jennifer Hart on Hart to Hart (ABC, 1979-1984), and the founder and president of the William Holden Wildlife Foundation, a nonprofit organization that Stefanie established in 1982 in memory of her longtime life partner that continues and furthers the conservation work of William Holden in East Africa. Topics this segment include why Stefanie considers herself a conservationist, as opposed to a philanthropist; how Stefanie's interest in wildlife stemmed from a young age, long before she met Holden; and the difference between “going on vacation” and “traveling with purpose.” The United Nations honored Stefanie Powers earlier this year as an Agent of Change in recognition for her work with the William Holden Wildlife Foundation. She is also featured in Vision for the Future: Capturing Inspiring Stories from Leaders and Changemakers, a new anthology eBook that profiles twenty-five visionaries who not only are making a significant impact in their respective fields, but are dedicated to making the world a better place through hope, action, and lasting change.

Rage for Ratings: Paddy Chayefsky & Sidney Lumet Present NETWORK What was once considered a satire by all (save the two men who made it - they considered it a reflection of what was happening), Paddy Chayefsky and Sidney Lumet's 1976 masterpiece exists as a fifty year harbinger of a media, social, and political reality that has reached its culmination with the current state of American culture. Once considered a blistering social comedy Network has lost a great deal of of its humor in the absurd realities of the third decade of the 21st Century. Mr. Chavez & I are thrilled, excited, depressed, and disgusted . . . all of it coming out in this timely discussion. Take a listen as we look to Faye Dunaway, William Holden, Robert Duvall, Ned Beatty, Beatrice Straight, and (posthumous Oscar winner - the first ever) Peter Finch in this briliant look at the American Media System - Nearly Fifty Years before its Horrible, Horrible Culmination. Take a listen . . . it's a fun talk.

1970s television films. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing and William Chen discuss Saturday Night (2024) and Network (1976), films about television in 1975. We begin by discussing our connection and experience watching the television sketch-comedy show Saturday Night Live (1975-present). We discuss the actors' performances in the film, especially in their impersonations of the famous cast members of the original episode: Chevy Chase, John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd and Andy Kaufman. We shift our conversation to Network and how relevant the film still is today. We also praise the performances in Network, including Faye Dunaway, William Holden, Peter Finch, Robert Duvall, Beatrice Straight and Ned Beatty. We compare the two films, especially the costume and production design of both films being similar while being almost 50 years apart.

EPISODE 60 - "THELMA RITTER: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH" - 11/04/2024 There's a scene in the classic 1950 film All About Eve where Eve Harrington (ANNE BAXTER), a star-struck fan who has infiltrated the life of Broadway star Margo Channing (BETTE DAVIS), is telling the tragic story of her past to Margo and her friends. While Margo and company are drawn into the sad circumstances of Eve's life, Margo's acerbic dresser Birdie, played to perfection by the great THELMA RITTER, is not buying her sob story. After Eve finishes, Birdie mutters, "What a story! Everything but the bloodhounds snappin' at her rear end." This is probably the moment I fell in love with Ritter. With her heavy New York accent, diminutive size, working-class charm, and sarcastic zingers, she made a career of stealing scenes from big stars and making the most of her time on screen. She played characters wiser than most, and her characters certainly didn't suffer fools gladly. She is a cinematic treasure, and we celebrate her as our Star of the Month.

I was invited to a screening of Sunset Blvd. A dark comedy made by Billy Wilder in 1950.  William Holden, Gloria Swanson, Erich Von Stroheim - at the last minute I was going to see it by myself, thought twice about it - but something or someone insisted I go. At the screening, Nancy Olson who starred in the film as the girlfriend of William Holden was there. She had wonderful stories about her experience on the film - her second movie.  After the screening I had an urge to go to the Chateau Marmont hotel... I didn't know why, but couldn't talk myself into doing it. Later, I discovered that Billy Wilder, the director and writer of the film wrote it while he was living in the hotel, and the room that Holden lives in with a Murphy bed was identical to the one that Wilder lived in when he wrote it. Then for the past few days, I have been hearing, getting messages from Mr. Wilder, about my own career, about films I've written and scripts I haven't yet gotten into production.   So that was the genesis of this conversation. First Carl Weathers, who was an active member of the DGA, my pal whom I wrote a script with (Apollo Creed in Rocky) started the conversation, which then drifted to Luana Anders - where I asked if this Billy fellow wanted to be interviewed. He did.  He said he was greeted by his mother on the flipside - which was poignant because she had not come with him to the US and when he went back to extricate her from Germany, she and her husband and Billy's grandmother were victims of the Nazis. He expressed sadness at not trying harder to get her to join him in America.  I had a million questions to ask him about his writing partner and others - but he spoke about the fast times and laughs (and booze) that he and William Holden shared.  At some point I asked Walter Matthau some questions, since I was his dialog coach on a Charles Grodin film "Movers and Shakers."  It was a treat to meet him - part of Hollywood royalty. Billy talked about the great times they had back then, and how being back home was like "being in a Fred Astaire movie."  He noted that he'd made "about 30 movies" (for the record he directed 27 films, including Spirit of St. Louis, the Apartment, Some Like It Hot, etc).  He said that in the afterlife, it was like being on a back lot and each sound stage was filled with all the people he'd made a film with - and so each sound stage was another "chapter in his life."  Amazing description.  We asked him about Marilyn Monroe and other folks he worked with - and he knew them all.   When I mentioned what a great screenwriter he was, Robert Towne showed up to talk a bit about the process, and how on the flipside, he's still honing his writing skills. He said that he was learning how to be more open to the muse - and agreed that was something for every artist, painter, musician... that we are always honing our skills either onstage or offstage. And when talking about it, he pointed out that he was in the "before life" zone and not an "after life" arena.  Because we can and do return when we want to. Another mind bending episode. 

We conclude this overstuffed episode with a look at 1976's Network, directed by Sidney Lumet and starring William Holden, Peter Finch and Faye Dunaway. Finch plays a television news anchor who decides to say exactly what's on his mind, and the audience reaction comes as a huge surprise to everyone. His bosses are only too happy to capitalize on this renewed popularity. But even though he's starting to show signs of mental instability, they continue to exploit him...until it stops paying off. COMING ATTRACTIONS: In our next episode we take a look at a pair of political thrillers from overseas. We start with The Battle of Algiers (1966), and move on to 1969's Z (or Zed, if you prefer).

Captured by the Japanese, British soldiers and their ranking officer, Colonel Nicholson (Alec Guinness in an Oscar winning performance), are forced to construct a strategic railroad bridge. Despite cruel treatment by the brutal Colonel Saito (Sessue Hayakawa), Nicholson displays unyielding courage, and the bridge becomes a matter of obsessive British pride to him.

HoneyBees is back to discuss The Towering Inferno with Mike and Ethan. The movie depicts a grand opening celebration for the world's tallest skyscraper, the Glass Tower, which sadly catches fire due to bad wiring. The film follows the efforts of the building's architect, played by Paul Newman, and the fire chief, played by Steve McQueen, as they work together to rescue the trapped guests, including the building's owner, portrayed by William Holden. Faye Dunaway also appears along with other notable actors of the time. The movie has it all: romance(?), peril, people cutting corners, awful son-in-laws, big buildings, bad decisions, and, of course, fire!Check out HoneyBee's other episode What's the Matter with Helen? and follow them on Twitch!Remember to join our Discord for movie nights and further podcast discussions!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-other-half/exclusive-content

“Arf! Arf!” “What's that, Girl? Timmy's in the well!!?” We speak fluent Collie and Timmy got into plenty of trouble but he never fell into a well. What Lassie is trying to tell you there is that “Timmy,” Jon Provost, is doing very well. He's an animal rights activist who has just launched a CBD spray to help calm pets and, along with his wife, Laurie Jacobson, he's written a book chronicling his phenomenal show-biz history, including films with Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly, Jane Wyman, Robert Redford, Natalie Wood, William Holden, Clinton Eastwood and Kurt Russell. Jon spent seven years working on Lassie and June Lockhart before graduating as a bona fide teen idol and exploring all of the iconic haunts along the Sunset Strip with Davy Jones, David Cassidy and Sajid Kahn!The book is, naturally, titled Timmy's In The Well and along with Jon's acting history, it also explores what happens to a family when one kid becomes world famous. Jon's wife Laurie joins us with insights into exactly that as well as intrigue on Hollywood's hidden history and a peek into her next book about The Sunset Strip.We leave no stone unturned and no well un-excavated as we trace Jon's start back to his mother's love for Jane Wyman which compelled her to bring her 3-year-old son to a cattle-call audition for the role of Sterling Hayden and Jane Wyman's little boy in 1953's So Big. Out of a sea of hundreds, Jon won the part.From there, we go behind the Lassie scenes with Jon as he warmly remembers his relationship with the world's most beloved dog and her trainer, Rudd Weatherwax. (Actually, his trainer. Lassie was always played by a male dog.) Jon and Lassie travelled the country on promotional tours and along the way, they grand marshaled parades, hosted charity events and visited children's hospital, inspiring Jon towards a lifetime of charity work and public service.Jon also reflects on his personal struggles with dyslexia, school bullies, finding himself as he came of age and how a conversation with Kurt Russell on the set of 'The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes' convinced him it was time to take a much-needed break from the business.Plus, Laurie and Jon share their “How Did You Meet” story. It happened at an autograph show where Laurie came over to his booth to chat with Stanley Livingston. Lassie having taught Jon well in the art of non-verbal communication, Jon kicked Stan under the table which is code for, “What the heck, Stan!? Introduce me to this lovely woman!”  All that plus Weezy and Fritz are recommending Hollywood Con Queen and Sugar, both on Apple TV+.Path Points of Interest:Jon ProvostTimmy's In The Well by Jon Provost & Laurie JacobsonJon Provost on WikipediaJon Provost on FacebookLaurie JacobsonLaurie Jacobson's Amazon Author PageLaurie Jacobson on InstagramProvost Pet SprayMuttvilleHollywood Con Queen on Apple +Sugar on Apple +
