Much like ”Screenpat“Podcast Co-Host Ryan Lattanzio felt after leaving Kathryn Bigelow’s core missil thriller” A House of Dynamite “in Venice- as he rave-examined – Anne Thompson left a new LA show of the movie with her heart that thumped in the chest.
Written by Noah Oppenheim, Bigelow Thriller in real time about the banalities and reality of a fiction-in-time-only nuclear attack on the United States is Netflix’s best horse in the race at The Race at the Oscar This year. The film Stars Rebecca Ferguson, Jared Harris, Idris Elba, Jonah Hauer-King, Anthony Ramos, Moses Ingram, Tracy Letts and more-and while the ensemble will probably be left outside the actors, the film will play well for Oscar selectors and audiences when it drops at Netflix I. Streamer will provide this gripping and intense film – which is a careful letter about the nuclear power warehouse all over the world – a theater, qualified game in theaters from October 10.
In this week’s section “Screen Talk” we also remember Great Robert RedfordThe filmmaker and actor and Sundance founder who died at home in Utah at the age of 89 on Tuesday. We each choose our favorite films from Redford: While Anne claims that “Out of Africa”, the best image-winning romance he directed and played in with Meryl Streep, has aged better than Alan J. Pakula’s early (!) Journalism-thriller “All the President’s Men” from 1976, which we were a career. Pollack-directed the film as a wasp opposite Barbra Streisand as a Marxist Jewish woman. From college on, they could never make their relationship work. But Pollack knew how to make commercially appealing and filmmaking art at the same time.
We also discuss the latest, heading-dominating news that Jimmy Kimmel has been drawn from late at night by ABC After he made alleged erroneous comments about conservative activist Charlie Kirk. What does it mean for freedom of speech on television? It doesn’t look good. Like the situation with Stephen Colbert getting shoulder from air waves in the middle of the Paramount-Skydance merger, there is another combination of mega broadcasting forces at the game here: Nexstar, US largest local television broadcast group, is in the middle of a merger with similar local TV operation of Tegna. Both are in FCC’s pocket, which in turn is in President Trump’s pocket.
This week’s “Screen Talk” also breaks down the big players in Best international feature Oscar Race. France, because of its production share in the film, has officially submitted the Iranian director Jafar Panahi’s Palme d’Or winner “It was just an accident” for Oscar. The country has a good chance of a nomination and possibly a win after several years of being stumbled. France could have won this year for “Emilia Pérez” until we know what happened there. Other strong challengers include “The President’s Cake” from Iraq (A Sony Pictures Classics Release), Norway’s “Sentimental Value” (Neon) and Brazil’s “The Secret Agent” (including Neon), although this is a category that is ever difficult to predict. The deadline for submissions is October 1st.
