• Golden Globes kick off awards season. Plus: Anthony Robles' 'Unstoppable' story
    2025/01/08

    The calendar has flipped to 2025 and we quickly find ourselves in the middle of awards season. First up were the Golden Globe Awards.

    The show, with a looser atmosphere than Oscars and Emmys, celebrates some of the best movies and television shows. More importantly, the awards for films often offer a preview into the thinking of voters ahead of the Academy Awards.

    The biggest buzz might be for "The Brutalist," a movie that tops three hours and includes an intermission so viewers can stretch their legs.

    Co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz share their thoughts before Bruce shares an interview he had with former college wrestling champion Anthony Robles, whose story has been turned into a feature film called "Unstoppable." "Unstoppable" airs on Prime Video beginning Jan. 16.

  • Big things expected from smaller films. Find out which ones to watch!
    2024/12/04

    As movie fans head back to theaters thanks to some huge releases like "Wicked," "Moana 2" and "Gladiator II," we decided to focus this episode on other movies to watch that are flying under the radar but could lead to Oscar nominations.

    Demi Moore is getting some buzz for her work on "The Substance." And remember Pamela Anderson from "Baywatch"? She stars in "The Last Showgirl" and could be in consideration for major awards much the same way Mickey Rourke came out of nowhere with "The Wrestler" a decade ago.

    Other movies to keep an eye on include "Hard Truths" with Marianne Jean-Baptiste, "Emilia Perez" with Selena Gomez, "The Brutalist" with Adrien Brody and "September 5" with Peter Sarsgaard. Also, be sure to check out "A Different Man" and "The Apprentice," both of which have elevated Sebastian Stan.

    In keeping with the theme, co-host Bruce Miller has an interview with Mikey Madison, who stars in another small film with a lot of buzz: "Anora."

    And next week we'll dive into another "Nickel Boys," which is getting a lot of buzz for director RaMell Ross. Come back next week for our interview with Ross and more!

    Taylor Sheridan, the creator of "Yellowstone" and its various spinoffs, has yet another new project potentially worth your time.

Demi Moore and Jon Hamm also have big roles, while Ali Larter, who has a long list of supporting credits, get a chance to shine as Angela Norris, Tommy's ex-wife.

    In this episode, co-host Bruce Miller catches up with Thornton and Larter with a pair of in-depth interviews.

  • Celebrating the music of Patsy Cline and a 'Wicked' start to the holiday movie season
    2024/11/20

    Patsy Cline was only 30 when she died, but her relatively small catalog of music continues to resonate with music fans for more than six decades.

    “Patsy Cline: Walkin’ After Midnight” airs Nov. 22 on PBS and features a host of stars singing songs from Cline’s catalog. In advance of that program, co-host Bruce Miller spoke with Cline's daughter, Julie Fudge.

    Bruce also got an early preview of "Wicked: Part I," which hits theaters nationwide on Nov. 22 and is expected to be one of the biggest releases this late fall/early winter season as movie fans return to theaters during the upcoming holidays. Despite a few flaws, notably the unnecessary need to split the movie into two parts, "Wicked" delivers and keeps the magic of Oz alive.

  • 'Yellowstone' returns for its final stretch. Hear from the stars!
    2024/11/20

    In what has become the standard playbook for a popular television series, "Yellowstone" was given a slightly longer final season that was ultimately split into two parts separated by a year.

    So the final six episodes of Season 5 began dropping weekly beginning Nov. 13 and will conclude the Dutton family saga. Of course, some of the planned spinoffs could extend the narrative in the future.

    The show is without Kevin Costner, who departed after the first half of the fifth season. So what does that mean? Host Bruce Miller shares his thoughts as well as interviews with Wes Bentley, who plays Jamie Dutton; Luke Grimes, who plays Kayce Dutton; and Kelsey Asbille, who plays Monica Long Dutton.

    Also, be sure to check out the first installment of a new series of articles from Lee Enterprises that looks at real-life connections to the show.

    The first article, Fact vs. fiction: A livestock investigator explains the reality not seen on 'Yellowstone,' looks at the real role served by one of Montana's livestock investigators.

    We want to hear from you! Email questions to co-host Terry Lipshetz (terry.lipshez@lee.net) and we'll answer your question on a future episode!
