Months after anti-Putin activist Alexei Navalny died in a Russian prison, his wife, Yulia Navalnaya, now the leading figure of his political movement, spoke with correspondent Lesley Stahl in Navalnaya's first U.S. interview about her late husband's posthumous memoir. Navalnaya discussed the book – Navalny's last act of defiance against the Kremlin, which chronicles his final three years behind bars under often brutal conditions – and his death, which she blames on Russian president Vladimir Putin. She details Alexei's clandestine operation for penning the memoir inside a high-security prison and then smuggling it out; why the couple decided to return to Russia after Navalny was poisoned; and her daring campaign for justice in the wake of his death. Each year, about 2 million Americans receive a bill from the Social Security Administration, saying they were paid too much in benefits and must pay it back. Even if the error is not their fault, they often still have to pay. Correspondent Anderson Cooper reports on how some elderly and disabled people have been burdened with tens of thousands of dollars in debt. Correspondent Cecilia Vega travels to the U.K. for an intimate portrait of actor Kate Winslet, Hollywood's most non-Hollywood A-lister, and discusses her transformative journey to starring in and producing her film, “Lee.” Winslet, who has been a vocal advocate against the insults and inequalities facing women in the film industry, relies on this experience for the role, portraying American photographer Lee Miller, who worked for Vogue as one of the few female war correspondents on the frontline of WWII. As Vega discovers, Winslet and Miller share a resilience and see the world through a similar lens, making her connection more than just a role.

Winslet también comparte detalles sobre la evolución física y emocional de su interpretación, la importancia de la autenticidad en la recreación de escenas difíciles y su trabajo con Andy Samberg para lograr una comunicación no verbal matizada. Finalmente, aborda su minuciosa investigación de la entonación vocal de Miller, basándose en grabaciones personales para capturar la voz real del personaje.

As Lee-ver comes to a close (maybe?!), we decided to revisit a recent Kate Winslet vehicle that's also a fun antidote to tHesE tiMeS. In 2015, Jocelyn Moorhouse (a director we love talking about here on THOB) returned with the TIFF premiere of The Dressmaker. Adapted from the Rosalie Ham novel, the film stars Winslet as a … Continue reading "326 – The Dressmaker"
Our second discussion is with Academy Award winning actress Kate Winslet who was recently nominated for a Golden Globe for her turn as photographer Elizabeth 'Lee' Miller in Ellen Kuras' Lee. We first meet Lee in the months before WW2 commences, where Lee worked as a fashion model before forging a path for women journalists in wartime as she became a war correspondent for Vogue magazine.Lee's photography from that era is some of the finest work you will see focused on WW2, yet after the war, she sought to hide much of the work she did, with her son eventually finding many of her photos after she had passed away. Kuras and Winslet choose to frame Lee's story with an impossible conversation that sees Josh O'Connor's Antony Penrose sitting down with Lee Miller to talk through her life and her work in a haze of cigarette smoke. There's an emotional truth here that resonates strongly throughout the film that is keenly felt by the original writing by Penrose himself, otherwise known as the son of Sir Roland Penrose and Lee Miller.In the following conversation, Kate talks about the journey of bringing Lee's story to life, including the importance of engaging in era-specific photography, as well as the need to be able to tell these kinds of stories in todays day and age. This conversation is pulled from two separate discussions, one from a panel discussion, and the second as a one on one interview with Kate. In the first discussion, I was briefly interrupted, which is what you will hear in the following chat.Lee is now available to view on demand in Australia. It is as good as any wartime biopic that you'll see, with Winslet giving a powerful and impactful performance which is deftly supported by a rare dramatic turn from Andy Samberg, who equally deserves recognition and accolades for his work. They're both supported by a cast that includes Oscar nominee Andrea Riseborough, Oscar winner Marion Cotillard, and Alexander Skarsgard. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Next Sunday, December 8, the arched doors of the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris will open to the public for the first time since April 2019, when a devastating fire nearly destroyed the great Gothic church. What will they see? Correspondent Bill Whitaker has a first look inside a modern miracle of repair and restoration by workers and artisans who made possible French President Emmanuel Macron's impossible-sounding pledge to complete the rebirth in five years. As Macron tells Whitaker, “The decision to rebuild Notre Dame was…about our capacity to save, restore, sometimes reinvent what we are by preserving where we come from.”Located in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay and only accessible by boat, Smith Island, Maryland is a place where time stands still, and its residents speak a unique dialect. Rising sea levels and erosion are changing the landscape and placing residents at risk of becoming some of the country's first climate refugees. Correspondent Jon Wertheim meets these locals to hear how climate change threatens their way of life - and the island itself - but where their perseverance and pride are inspiring a new generation of islanders.Correspondent Cecilia Vega travels to the UK for an intimate portrait of actor Kate Winslet, Hollywood's most non-Hollywood A-Lister, and discusses her transformative journey to starring in and producing her latest film, “Lee.” Winslet, who has been a vocal advocate against the insults and inequalities facing women in the film industry, relies on this experience for her current role, portraying American photographer Lee Miller, who worked for Vogue as one of the few female war correspondents on the frontline of WWII.

Correspondent Jon Wertheim reports on the unimaginable story of nearly 400 Afghans who were evacuated under the guise of a wedding party. Wertheim reveals the treacherous, high stakes rescue operation organized by American citizens and led by former Army intelligence officer Jason Kander that concealed men, women, and children in an Afghan wedding palace.

In dieser Folge ist Kate Winslet zu Gast – eine wahre Ikone des Kinos, die durch ihre Wandelbarkeit in grossen Studio-Blockbustern, aber auch in keinen Indie-Produktionen glänzt. Mit ihrem neuen Film LEE erzählt sie die Geschichte von einer der bedeutendsten Kriegsfotografinnen des 20. Jahrhunderts und zeigt sie auf ihrer Mission, die verborgenen Wahrheiten des Dritten Reichs aufzudecken. Neben der Rolle als Hauptdarstellerin ist Winslet auch als Co-Produzentin am Film beteiligt. In der ZFF-Masters-Folge spricht sie darüber, warum sie über so viele Jahre an diesem Projekt gearbeitet hat und weshalb ihr diese Rolle besonders am Herzen liegt.
Sarah was feeling left out of the crazy spider bite conversation. She got one of her own, so she and Susie can be Spider Bite Besties.

Travis Hopson of Punch Drunk Critics reviews LEE, a biopic starring Kate Winslet as model turned war photographer Lee Miller.LEE, the directorial feature from award-winning Cinematographer Ellen Kuras, portrays a pivotal decade in the life of American war correspondent and photographer, Lee Miller (Kate Winslett). Miller's singular talent and unbridled tenacity resulted in some of the 20th century's most indelible images of war, including an iconic photo of Miller herself, posing defiantly in Hitler's private bathtub. Miller had a profound understanding and empathy for women and the voiceless victims of war. Her images display both the fragility and ferocity of the human experience. Above all, the film shows how Miller lived her life at full throttle in pursuit of truth, for which she paid a huge personal price, forcing her to confront a traumatic and deeply buried secret from her childhood.LEE opens in theaters Sept. 27thAll of this and more can be found at www.punchdrunkcritics.com!Subscribe to Punch Drunk Critics on YouTube: / @punchdrunkcritics1 Follow Punch Drunk Critics on Twitter: / pdcmovies Follow Punch Drunk Critics on Facebook: / pdcmovies You can also subscribe to our podcast Cinema Royale anywhere you get your podcasts!#katewinslet #moviereview #warphotography

Look, I don't like to brag but in case you hadn't noticed, we've got Kate Winslet on How To Fail this week. ACTUAL KATE WINSLET! The one and only! And oh my goodness, what an incredible guest she is: acutely intelligent, funny and brilliantly forthright. We covered so much ground - from the media obsession with her body image, to her regret at giving up tap-dancing, her feelings of failure around not yet having directed, working with Emma Thompson and the time Woody Allen called her ‘a bad actress'...it's *all* here. We talk about a career that started at the age of 17 in Heavenly Creatures and went on to encompass some of the biggest roles in the biggest movies of all time - Sense and Sensibility, Titanic, Iris, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and so much more. Along the way, Winslet has won an Academy Award, two Emmys, five Baftas, five Golden Globes and been awarded a CBE. Now, 48, Winslet's titular role in Lee, the biopic of war photographer Lee Miller, also marks her first time as producer. It was a passion project she was determined to get made, although it took her eight long years to do so. And for anyone who wants to hear more about the filming of The Holiday and whether she and Leonardo di Caprio are still friends, then you *have* to tune into Failing With Friends, our subscriber episode, where Winslet spills all the beans.

“Eterno resplandor de una mente sin recuerdos” cumplió 20 años. La cinta, protagonizada por Jim Carrey y Kate Winslet, se ha transformado en un “artefacto cultural” emblemático de la primera década del siglo XXI. ¿Pero de dónde viene la idea de borrar los recuerdos de una persona? ¿Cómo surge el concepto matriz de la película de Michel Gondry?
This week, we dive into the eagerly anticipated HBO limited series The Regime.

Actress and writer Meghann Murphy (host of The Oscar Should Have Gone To) joins for a look back at James Cameron's Oscar-winning romance TITANIC starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet and Billy Zane. Set aboard the ill-fated vessel, the story finds a newly-engaged first class passenger Rose (Winslet) falling for a free-spirited artist (DiCaprio) in third class. Cameron's ambitious epic, (pitched as "Romeo and Juliet on the Titanic"), was a fraught production, racking up a then all-time record budget of $200 million dollars and sparking speculation that it would be a box office disaster. Upon release in December of 1997, TITANIC remained number one at the box office for 15 consecutive weeks, racked up 14 Academy Award nominations, won 11, and launched DiCaprio and Winslet into the ranks of superstardom. Congrats, you've won a ticket aboard the our detailed reassessment of this Valentine's Day staple, along with diversions into Amadeus, May December, Revolutionary Road, Bradley Cooper, Saltburn, Lars von Trier and much, much more!

Is this romance/disaster film still all as great as it was all those years ago? Was it ever that great?

It's Episode 105! Sam and Louise from the Picturehouse and 90 Minutes or Less Film Fest podcasts return for Sam's choice The Holiday. The Holiday is a 2006 Nancy Meyers (What Women Want, Something's Gotta Give) romantic drama/comedy starring Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet as pre-Airbnb home swappers and Jude Law and Jack Black as their respective if not wholly convincing love interests. Set at Christmas is it a guaranteed feature on TV over Christmas despite not being particularly Christmassy other than continuing to give an illusion of picturesque snow in a (fake) English village, rather than the slush fest it is in reality. Diaz swaps her massive LA home for Winslet's tiny village cottage and encounters a drunk and charming Law. Winslet is depressingly obsessed with a complete slimeball at work and trying to wean herself off him meets an old man and for no romantic reasons ends up with Black. If you can buy Jack Black as a romantic lead and that Winslet would ever be rejected by anyone ever you'll probably enjoy this. If you haven't seen it before, it might have something to with the terrible film posters, it isn't as bad as you might expect it to be. It is too long - over two hours - it could easily be 90 minutes. Scores[supsystic-tables id=110]The runtime definitely loses The Holiday points on repeat viewing and engagement - it doesn't need the full two hours and fifteen minutes - however it still manages 3.78 overall. What do you guys think? Have you seen The Holiday? What did you think? Please let us know in the comments below!

Ash is back! Shat The Movies' "female expert" rejoins the team and breaks the millennial wall to cover her favorite movie: "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind." Topics in this episode run the gamut from manic pixie dream girls to breakups to losing pets. Gene airs some personal grievances about ex-girlfriends who needed to talk "right now;" Dick questions why people are allowed to relabel their character flaws as strengths; and Ash asks if "Eternal Sunshine" is the most honest love story ever made. Does Clementine suck, or does Joel just remember her that way? How close is memory-eraser technology to becoming reality? Does Big D need to do more hallucinogens to work through childhood trauma? We explore these questions and more as Shat The Movies kicks off the Month of Mark from Minneapolis.

Getting grubby or get in the scrubs? Todays guest openly says his path was always laid out to follow in his fathers footsteps as a doctor! He speaks about spending most of his younger days after school waiting in wards and corridors in hospitals and it was just where he felt comfortable! A few changes for Harry Winslet and he found a fescues for food production with a particular focus on veg. 5 years ago he took on a role with G's Fresh! G's is a company I've been aware of for sometime and in my head envisioned a small place producing high quality lettuce…the high quality part is correct but it's a 16000 hectare juggernaut spanning two continents and well in excess of 10 countries! Harry developed a keen interest in the utilisation of peat and will be looking into peat use the world over as part of his Nuffield Scholarship! I for one can't wait to follow the work he does in the coming months! Enjoy!

MOVIE NIGHT! Join Tom, Dan & Sarah as they embark on a voyage through the North Atlantic and the hearts of millions. The exploration of good ol' Jimmy Cameron's back catalogue continues with 1997's "Titanic," inheritor of a proud disaster movie lineage and unknowing herald of a decade of "Downton Abbey." After recontextualizing the spritely Fabrizio's uncanny accent as a product of our ancient narrator's Edwardian prejudices, we finally get down to the serious business of making our own luck with the real Billy Zane. That, and a whole lot of well-deserved Winslet worship. Contained within: light-hearted PCP pranks, the token DiCaprio Squawk, and Animorphs spoilers. Lights, Cameron, Action!

This week Lolo shows Patrick the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind for the first time. They discuss what it is about this movie that's made Patrick reticent to watch it for all these years, the many subtle visual effects in what seems like a pretty straight forward indie dramedy on the outside, whether or not this film might be the earliest manic pixie dream girl and so much more.

Berni und Rüdiger sind sich uneins über Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind
Before New Zealand director Peter Jackson became world famous for his Lord of the Rings trilogy, he had a cult following for directing a few horror and zombie films that featured wild special effects and stop-motion animation. Then in 1994, at age 32, Jackson showed that he could handle a movie with wider significance and appeal. That film was Heavenly Creatures, a story based on a notorious murder case from the early 1950s in Christchurch, New Zealand. As was to be the case in all his future work, Jackson wrote the screenplay with his wife, Fran Walsh. This was the film that fascinated me when I first saw it in 1995, and then quickly went to see it again. After the picture establishes its time and place with part of an actual 1954 newsreel about Christchurch, we meet Pauline Rieper, a lonely and painfully self-conscious teenage girl played by 16-year-old newcomer Melanie Lynskey. Her parents and siblings don't understand why Pauline is always so angry and withdrawn, although we in the audience can sense that the difficult and confusing effects of puberty clearly play a role. Ignored by her classmates at a girls' school, and disliked by teachers, Pauline is bewildered about her life, an experience well conveyed through Jackson's bold camera effects and frenetic editing. Then, an English girl arrives at the school, Juliet Hulme, played by the 17-year-old Kate Winslet. Vivacious, imaginative, and boldly rebellious, Juliet immediately captivates Pauline, and reaches out to her in friendship, which the shy girl responds to with all the repressed passion of her soul. Winslet had previously appeared on English TV, but this was her first role in a movie. She and Lynskey give powerful, revelatory performances. The bond between Pauline and Juliet quickly becomes rather intense. Pauline introduces her friend to the music of her idol, the tenor Mario Lanza. Their enmeshment expresses itself in imaginative play-acting: they pretend to be fantasy heroines in a mythical kingdom, giving themselves different names and acting out little stories. Here Jackson introduces his animation techniques—large “claymation” type figures dancing, singing, and embracing the girls in the courtyard of a medieval castle. The girls' fantasies not only celebrate their bond, but express anger and hostility towards authority figures who try to discipline them. The trouble starts when Juliet's father feels disturbed by how involved the two girls are in each other. He thinks it's unhealthy, and he tells Pauline's mother that. Both sets of parents try to discourage the friendship in various ways, but of course this only makes the attachment stronger and more determined. When the Hulmes decide to move back to England, Juliet and Pauline think they're being persecuted. Faced with the unthinkable prospect of separation, their fragile minds go over the edge. Heavenly Creatures is a fever dream of a movie. Sometimes it seems like you can barely catch your breath with Jackson's relentless, flamboyant style, funny at first but ultimately tragic. No film that I've seen has captured the insanity of adolescence, the inability to see a future in the pressure of today, than this film has. Heavenly Creatures' remarkable compassion for its misguided characters brings us to painful and unforgettable awareness.

Following last week's episode on Scorsese and De Niro's synastry I decided to share some further thoughts on Scorsese's other collaborative partners. I'm looking at working relationships at the moment because these play a large role in our lives. My thought process lead me down some interesting rabbit holes that would be interesting to explore in greater detail in future episodes of the podcast. As you'll hear, this week's episode was gatecrashed by my little boy who decided to wake up from his nap – how rude! I actually think he added to the episode and made me giggle quite a bit, hopefully he wasn't too much of a distraction for you!

Last one and this one's a DOOZY!The Holiday. What can we say about this that Noam Chomsky hasn't said a thousand times before? It's long, it's overwritten, it's sentimental, it thinks an awful lot of itself... but it's still better than Love Actually. If you don't like this film, we have four words for you:Law. Diaz. Winslet. Black. Actually, you might have a point. Also available as a YouTube videoSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/bookofnowt)
For part II of our mini-series on Ruja Ignatova and OneCoin, we are joined by the amazing Jen McAdam, who founded a support group for victims of OneCoin after herself being defrauded of several thousands of dollars. Jen's story is so compelling that the rights to her forthcoming book 'Fake,' have already been purchased by MGM - Kate Winslet will play Jen in a movie directed by Scott Z. Burns and produced by Winslet and Jennifer Todd. First person accounts of the devastating effects of pyramid schemes and cults are hard to come by so be sure to follow Jen on Twitter @JenMcAdamUK for updates on the book and movie!Huge thanks to Jen for joining us for this episode.
