Episode 153 - Mutiny On The Bounty (1962)


Stinking Pause – the movie review podcast with Scott who this week is joined by Steven and Anthony

In this episode, Steven from the Reel Britannia podcast and Anthony from the Glass Onion:On John Lennon podcast are with Scott in the Balaban Sound Studio talking about the 1962 version of Mutiny On The Bounty, starring Trevor Howard and Marlon Brando

“You remarkable pig. You can thank whatever pig god you pray to that you haven't turned me into a murderer.”

1787. HMS Bounty, commanded by William Bligh, sets sail from Portsmouth. She is heading for Tahiti, on a mission to introduce breadfruit plants to Jamaica. It is Bligh's first command and it is soon apparent that he is happy to hand out severe punishments for the most minor infraction. The welfare of his men is also not of primary concern to him. All this not only puts him in conflict with the seamen but with his First Lieutenant, Fletcher Christian.

Drowning his sorrows after that botched mission during WWII, the traumatised former fighter pilot with a fear of flying, Ted Striker, still hasn't got over his old flame and flight attendant, Elaine Dickinson. Determined to win her back, Ted boards a domestic flight from Los Angeles to Chicago, only to come face-to-face with a severe case of in-flight food poisoning that is threatening everyone's lives. Now, with most of the passengers and the entire cockpit crew down with the food-borne illness, Striker has no other choice but to confront his inner demons and take over the control of the ungovernable aircraft with the help of a gruff air-traffic controller and his former commander. Can Ted land the plane and save them all?

Raised by kindly farmers Jonathan and Martha Kent, young Clark discovers the source of his superhuman powers and moves to Metropolis to fight evil.

Stinking Pause – the movie review podcast with Scott, who this week is joined by Antony, the host of the Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast to chat about Scorcese, DeNiro, method acting and boxing.

It’s back to 1980 for a look at Raging Bull starring Robert DeNiro and Joe Pesci, directed by Martin Scorcese.

When Jake LaMotta steps into a boxing ring and obliterates his opponent, he's a prizefighter. But when he treats his family and friends the same way, he's a ticking time bomb, ready to go off at any moment. Though LaMotta wants his family's love, something always seems to come between them. Perhaps it's his violent bouts of paranoia and jealousy. This kind of rage helped make him a champ, but in real life, he winds up in the ring alone.

Episode 142 - Close Encounters Of The Third Kind (1977)


Stinking Pause – the movie review podcast with Scott, who this week is joined by Paul to chat about Steven Spielberg, Richard Dreyfus and UFOs

It’s back to 1977 for a look at Close Encounters Of The Third Kind starring Richard Dreyfus, Teri Garr, Francois Truffaut and Bob Balaban

Steven Spielberg followed Jaws (1975), his first major box-office success, with this epic science fiction adventure about a disparate group of people who attempt to contact alien intelligence. Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) is an electrical lineman who, while sent out on emergency repairs, witnesses an unidentified flying object, and even has a "sunburn" from its bright lights to prove it. Neary's wife and children are at first skeptical, then concerned, and eventually fearful, as Roy refuses to accept a "logical" explanation for what he saw and is prepared to give up his job, his home, and his family to pursue the "truth" about UFOs. Neary's obsession eventually puts him in contact with others who've had close encounters with alien spacecraft, including Jillian (Melinda Dillon), a single mother whose son disappeared during her UFO experience, and Claude Lacombe (celebrated French filmmaker François Truffaut), a French researcher who believes that we can use a musical language to communicate with alien visitors. Lacombe's theory is put to the test when a band of government researchers and underground UFO enthusiasts (including Neary) join for an exchange with alien visitors near Devil's Tower, Wyoming.

Episode 139 - American Graffiti (1973)


Stinking Pause – the movie review podcast with Scott who this week is joined by Paul for a trip back to America in 1962 with hamburgers and milkshakes, drive-ins, fast cars and some of the best rock and roll music ever created.

This episode we are joining Ron Howard and Richard Dreyfus with Wolfman Jack playing the tunes as we rock around the clock with American Graffiti (1973) – directed by George Lucas

“You’re the most beautiful, exciting thing I’ve ever seen in my life and I don’t know anything about you”

In the twilight of innocence, and against the backdrop of early-1960s Modesto, California, four school friends--Curt, Steve, John, and Terry--bid farewell to their carefree lives as teenagers, on the last evening of summer break. Over the course of one long and hot September night, the long-time companions on the brink of adulthood will take their first steps into the real life; experience the powerful feelings of desire, disappointment, and love--and, ultimately--see the world in a different light. Pivoting around Mel's bright Drive-In, and Wolfman Jack's non-stop Rock 'n' Roll disc-jockey show, the boys cruise the town's colourful streets in their beautiful cars, as an elusive blonde vision in a white 1956 Ford Thunderbird contributes to the excitement of this very special night. However, when morning comes, nothing will ever be the same again.

In this episode, Paul is back with Scott in the Balaban Sound Studio talking about the 1999 detective thriller, The Bone Collector starring Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie.

“There are five basic contaminants in a crime scene. I'll skip to the worse one. Other cops.”

Quadriplegic ex-cop Lincoln Rhyme was looking forward to his assisted suicide when he got the news: some sicko was abducting people in a taxi and leaving them to die in particularly sadistic ways. With time counting down between each abduction and possible death, Rhyme recruits rather-unwilling Amelia Donaghy, haunted by her cop father's suicide and thinking she's next, into working the crime scenes to track down the killer.
