empire of light

I denne episode anmelder vi, sammen med gæsteanmelder og tidligere biografoperatør René Husted, Giuseppe Tornatores storhittende Cinema Paradiso fra 1988 eller Mine Aftener i Paradis, som den hedder på dansk. Nostalgien er så tyk, at man kan skære igennem den og imponerede tilsyneladende specialjuryen i Cannes, selvom den floppede to gange i biografen - resten er historie. Har du stor kærlighed til biografsalen, duften af popcorn, dine første dates i mørket og knitrende karamelpapir, ja, så er du kommet til det rigtige sted. Spørgsmålet er dog, om filmen mere er et fatamogana, et spejlbilelde af, hvordan vi ønsker at huske de gode gamle dage, hvor biografen havde patent på den samlende filmoplevelse - eller om det fremstår, som noget nastalgisk brad i dag? Episodens anbefalinger giver tre bud på, hvordan nostalgien kan findes i andre film.

La peur de tomber enceinte quand on ne le veut plus ne se quitte pas facilement. Sylvie Prévot est depuis plusieurs années en phase de préménopause et avoue avoir recouru encore récemment à un test de grossesse, ce qui m'a fait bien rire. Mais sans doute a-t-elle raison. 

Sylvie Prévot est comédienne mais après 50 ans les rôles se tarissent. Elle raconte comment elle a rejoint un collectif qui mesure l'ampleur de la disparition, année après année, des femmes de plus de 50 ans des écrans. Ensemble on a avancé des pistes d'explication : 

- arrivées à la mid-life les femmes sont sans doute plus abouties, elles ne sont plus des héroïnes en construction

- et puis l'imaginaire des réalisateurs et des producteurs n'est pas peuplé des mêmes histoires que celui des productrices et des réalisatrices, qui ne sont à l'heure actuelle pas encore aussi nombreuses que leurs homologues

Empire of Light de Sam Mendes avec Olivia Coleman, Michael Ward et Colin Firth

Paul and Erin review new releases EMPIRE OF LIGHT, THE SON and KNOCK AT THE CABIN, and also weigh in on IRONFINGER, COOLEY HIGH and THE QUEEN OF SPADES.

Currently out on Blu-ray is not one, but two different movies that hit theaters last year and deal with, in no small part, movies.  Yes, now available are Steven Spielberg's "The Fabelmans" and Sam Mendes' "Empire of Light."  While both movies are beautiful to look at, only one touches the soul.  Which goes right and which goes wrong?  Let's discuss.

3 quotes from a Movie, Handel's Messiah and MoJoe (of MoJoe Studio, our brother studio in Southern California). All pointing to A Concept that will not only change how you view the Holidays, but more importantly, how you view life. Listen, like and share and let's spread some Happy together. Oh, and Merry Christmas!

The songs we use in this episode are "Christmas Time Is Here" by John Legend and "Happy Holidays (Beef Wellington Remix)" by Bing Crosby, remixed by Beef Wellington. We don't own the rights to either.
The one we do own the rights to, because James Kocian is amazing and he wrote it for Happy Life Studios, is "Another Perfect Day" Check out more of his wonderful stuff here and tell him thank you for us www.JamesKocian.com or here www.Facebook.com/jameskocianmusic

On the penultimate review episode of 2022, Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy look at nine new movies. They include documentaries about the theater after Covid (Broadway Rising) and the life of Al Sharpton (Loudmouth). Someone made a bloody horror film about The Grinch (The Mean One) and another Oscar-winning director again tries to turn a wooden boy into a good boy (Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio). Lea Seydoux has to juggle an affair and her ailing father (One Fine Morning) while Jim Parsons must tend to his dying partner (Spoiler Alert). Sam Mendes takes us into the life of a movie theater employee (Empire of Light), a donkey sees the good and bad in people (EO) as does Brendan Fraser in Darren Aronofsky’s divisive new film (The Whale).

Season 2 - Episode 7

Team Deakins engage in a wonderful conversation with actor Micheal Ward (BEAUTY, TOP BOY, EMPIRE OF LIGHT). We cover a lot of ground including discussing his experiences on TOP BOY, working in television vs features and his viewpoint as an actor on a set. Micheal speaks of the importance of authenticity and the responsibility he feels as a black actor to provide opportunities behind the camera for others to learn the craft. He also shares some funny tales of auditioning and animal phobia. You won’t want to miss this episode!
