    POP ART: Episode 116 Total Recall/General della Rovere

    POP ART SAYS “WE’RE BACK”: I AM SPARTACUS–Episode 116, Total Recall/General della Rovere     “Consider this a divorce”. For these two films, I and Bubbawheat (Nate Winthrow) of the Fight Club Minute, had a great time discussing two films that ask the same question: are you who you are? Are you who you think you are? Or are you who others think you are?     We especially had a great discussion on such topics as modern trends in sci-fi films, the directors Roberto Rossellini and Paul Verhoeven, and the question posed above—who are we?     I highly recommend checking out Bubbawheat’s The Fight Club Minute at https://rabbitholepodcasts.com/fight-club-minute/?fbclid=IwY2xjawFhYvZleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHabC_Oj7cyrjZjbcTmWGipcCMz9rKGJV-A4gQ4plRj-bS9CnakgFvFp9CA_aem_37hJ3PNyt-HGxrWCe0r3MA   And his blog, Flights, Tights and Movie Nights https://flightstightsandmovienights.com/?fbclid=IwY2xjawFhYxZleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHYbVJhuZr5W_5C7uGeqLyFBbIRkIB9L04wpn5J_gblEnrPPAk9h9qWNXeQ_aem_Ef9c5eMkE6rXbPsgART81Q   And It’s Time to Rewind https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bubbawheat     Check out my blog at https://howardcasner.wordpress.com/     My books, More Rantings and Ravings of a Screenplay Reader, The Starving Artists and Other Stories and The Five Corporations and One True Religion can be found at https://www.amazon.com/s?k=howard+casner&ref=nb_sb_noss     Be sure to like, follow or comment on my podcast.

    POP ART: Episode 114, May December/A Dream of Passion

    POP ART SAYS: A METHOD TO THEIR MADNESS– Episode 114, May December/A Dream of Passion.   I am slowly getting the latest episodes of Pop Art up. There are reasons I am behind, but hopefully I will get back to normal soon.   “I don’t think we have enough hot dogs”. For these two films, I and The Vern of Cinema Recall,  had a great time discussing two films in which actors, in order to help them create the characters they are working on, seek out either the person the film is based on (the Mary Kay Letourneau case for May December) or someone that resembles the role they are playing (a woman who murdered her children ala Medea for A Dream of Passion).    We especially had a great discussion on such topics as the trope of a male teen having sex with an older woman and the different way that is treated when it comes to female and gay teens; whether either actor really achieved their goal; and some talk about camp and kitsch. So, join us for this great discussion.   I highly recommend checking out The Vern’s various blogs and vlogs, especially Cinema Recall at https://www.cinemarecall.net/     Check out my blog at https://howardcasner.wordpress.com/     My books, More Rantings and Ravings of a Screenplay Reader, The Starving Artists and Other Stories and The Five Corporations and One True Religion can be found at https://www.amazon.com/s?k=howard+casner&ref=nb_sb_noss     Be sure to like, follow or comment on my podcast.

    POP ART: Episode 113, Ghost/Truly Madly Deeply

    OH, FRABJOUS DAY. CALLOOH! CALLAY!” HE CHORTLED IN HIS JOY.     Yes, that’s right. Pop Art is back and:     POP ART SAYS: AT LONG LAST LOVE– Episode 113, Ghost/Madly, Truly, Deeply     Yes, this is the Valentine’s Day episode and, yes, it is very, very late. This is due to the good (an incredible vacation to Sydney and New Zealand) and bad (getting Covid the day we were flying back). So, thanks for your patience to my regular listeners. As for those who aren’t regular listeners, please become so, so that I can thank you for your patience.     “Ditto”. For these two films, I and Richard Kirkham of such vlogs and blogs like The Lambcast and The Strother Martin Film Project, had a great time discussing two romantic dramas about lovers coming back from the afterlife to interact with those left behind.     We especially had a great discussion not only as to why such films are so popular, but whether there is a difference between films where the ghost is a man or a woman (we thought there might very well be). Both films came out the same year, but thematically and stylistically, they are so very different. But only one has Alan Rickman in it.     So, join us with this great discussion where after death your loved ones may come back, whether you want them to or not.     I highly recommend checking Richard Kirkham’s various blogs:     The Lambcast https://largeassmovieblogs.com/category/podcasts/lambcast     The Strother Martin Film Project https://strothermartinfilmproject.wordpress.com/     A Movie a Day https://kirkhamamovieaday.com/       Check out my blog at https://howardcasner.wordpress.com/     My books, More Rantings and Ravings of a Screenplay Reader, The Starving Artists and Other Stories and The Five Corporations and One True Religion can be found at https://www.amazon.com/s?k=howard+casner&ref=nb_sb_noss     Be sure to like, follow or comment on my podcast.

    POP ART: Episode 112, Parasite/La Ceremonie

    POP ART SAYS: Good Help is Hard to Find – Episode 112, Parasite/La Ceremonie First, this is very late and out of order, but it’s been one of those past couple of months. So apologies all around. However, welcome to a great discussion with screenwriter Jennifer van Sijll, author of the book used in classrooms everywhere, Cinematic Storytelling: ⁠The 100 Most Powerful Film Conventions Every Filmmaker Must Know⁠.   “They are nice because they are rich”. For these two films, we had a great discussion as to how servants have been dramatized over the years in movies. Class conflict. The Korean and French new wave. The greatness of both directors. And many other topics.     So, join us with this great discussion where not only can good help can be hard to find, it can be deadly. And always, ALWAYS, check their references.     I highly recommend checking out van Sijll’s book Cinematic Storytelling which can be found at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/s?k=cinematic+storytelling+by+jennifer+van+sijll&i=stripbooks&crid=1MGTP7A19BGAK&sprefix=cinematic+story%2Cstripbooks%2C98&ref=nb_sb_ss_fb_1_15     Check out my blog at https://howardcasner.wordpress.com/     My books, More Rantings and Ravings of a Screenplay Reader, The Starving Artists and Other Stories and The Five Corporations and One True Religion can be found at https://www.amazon.com/s?k=howard+casner&ref=nb_sb_noss     Be sure to like, follow or comment on my podcast.

  5. POP ART: Episode 113, Windchill/Dead End

    POP ART: Episode 113, Windchill/Dead End

    POP ART SAYS MERRY XMAS: I know, I know, I’m coming down the chimney late on this one. I’ve been slowed down by some various health issues, and the holidays, though I’m feeling a lot better now, thanks for asking. I hope I don’t get coal in my stocking for this.   But on to Pop Art, the podcast where we find the pop culture in art and the art in pop culture. It’s the podcast where my guest chooses a movie from popular culture, and I’ll select a film from the more art/classic/indie/foreign side of cinema with a connection to it.     LONESOME HIGHWAYS: “I just forgot the number to 9-1-1!” For episode 113, I welcome back my annual Christmas guest, Jay Cluitt (of The Deep Blue Sea podcast), who really loves holiday movies. We have chosen to discuss two Christmas adjacent horror films: Wind Chill and Dead End. Blizzards, stalled cars, dead ends, getting lost, ghosts, dead people. What is worse than coming home for Christmas? It’s the drive home for Christmas.   In this episode we discuss why Christmas adjacent films are so popular. We also discuss the rise of Christmas horror films; just what is it with that? Jay liked Dead End more than Wind Chill, but both are quite scary and we certainly agree Emily Blunt was great. In the end, we learned the moral of the story is that if you come across a baby carriage on a lonely road, do not, DO NOT, stop. Drive off.   Check out Jay’s The Deep Blue Sea podcast https://www.spreaker.com/user/11106493/bodies-atrest?fbclid=IwAR330zZ_q9ywDj5o6FBwaU_JJ8dTfCnDF7O3k8AhggE2av3ufcvsEoHWzwk     Check out my blog at https://howardcasner.wordpress.com/     My books, More Rantings and Ravings of a Screenplay Reader, The Starving Artists and Other Stories and The Five Corporations and One True Religion can be found at https://www.amazon.com/s?k=howard+casner&ref=nb_sb_noss     Be sure to like, follow or comment on my podcast.

Why are soap operas so appealing? What rating from the Catholic Church was given to Peyton Place? What are the anachronisms and historical inaccuracies of both films? What Cannes award did The Ice Storm receive? What changes from the book did they make in bringing Peyton Place to the screen? What is inaccurate about the death in The Ice Story? How many Oscar acting nominations did Peyton Place receive?   Be sure and check out Sean’s various podcasts, “The Cabot Cove Confab Podcast”, “The Columbo Confab Podcast”, and “The Best Picture Podcast”.   Check out my blog at https://howardcasner.wordpress.com/   My books, More Rantings and Ravings of a Screenplay Reader, The Starving Artists and Other Stories and The Five Corporations and One True Religion can be found at https://www.amazon.com/s?k=howard+casner&ref=nb_sb_noss   Be sure to like, follow or comment on my podcast.
