Episode 122 - The Longest Day (1962)

Episode 122 of the Stinking Pause podcast with Scott, Liam and Paul

Movie Roulette this week required Paul to select a movie starring Edmond O’Brien. So, it’s back to 1962 for a movie featuring the most impressive cast we have seen so far on the podcast…The Longest Day.

In 1944, the U.S. Army and Allied forces plan a huge invasion landing in Normandy, France. Despite bad weather, General Eisenhower gives the okay and the Allies land at Normandy. General Norman Cota (Robert Mitchum) travels with his men onto Omaha Beach. With much effort, and lost life, they get off the beach, traveling deep into French territory. The German military, due to arrogance, ignorance and a sleeping Adolf Hitler, delay their response to the Allied landing, with crippling results.

Episode 121 - Room (2015)

Episode 121 of the Stinking Pause podcast with Scott, Liam and Paul

Scott spun the wheel for Movie Roulette last week which  revealed the topic of Best Actress Oscar Winners from the 2010s. So, this week’s movie is Room from 2015 directed by Lenny Abrahamson and starring Jacob Tremblay with an Academy Award winning performance from Brie Larson.

ROOM tells the extraordinary story of Jack, a spirited 5-year-old who is looked after by his loving and devoted mother. Like any good mother, Ma dedicates herself to keeping Jack happy and safe, nurturing him with warmth and love and doing typical things like playing games and telling stories. Their life, however, is anything but typical--they are trapped--confined to a 10-by-10-foot space that Ma has euphemistically named Room. Ma has created a whole universe for Jack within Room, and she will stop at nothing to ensure that, even in this treacherous environment, Jack is able to live a complete and fulfilling life. But as Jack's curiosity about their situation grows, and Ma's resilience reaches its breaking point, they enact a risky plan to escape, ultimately bringing them face-to-face with what may turn out to be the scariest thing yet: the real world

Episode 120 - Throne Of Blood (1957)

Episode 120 of the Stinking Pause podcast with Scott, Liam and Paul

This week’s episode, thanks to the randomness of Movie Roulette , means that Liam has to select a movie directed by Akira Kurosawa.

Liam’s choice this episode is Throne of Blood from 1957. Cineastes beware… this episode may offend some of you out there…we couldn’t see what the fuss was all about.

Returning to their lord's castle, samurai warriors Washizu (Toshirô Mifune) and Miki (Minoru Chiaki) are waylaid by a spirit who predicts their futures. When the first part of the spirit's prophecy comes true, Washizu's scheming wife, Asaji (Isuzu Yamada), presses him to speed up the rest of the spirit's prophecy by murdering his lord and usurping his place. Director Akira Kurosawa's resetting of William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" in feudal Japan is one of his most acclaimed films.

Episode 117 - Two Minute Warning (1976)

Episode 117 of the Stinking Pause podcast with Scott, Liam and Paul

Movie Roulette has thrown a Charlton Heston movie at Scott this week, and so, in order not to upset Paul and Liam too much by choosing Ben Hur, he has instead selected Two Minute Warning from 1976.

The Los Angeles Police Department, led by Capt. Peter Holly (Charlton Heston), learns that a madman is planning to open fire on football fans in a packed Los Angeles Coliseum. Holly finds himself at tactical odds with SWAT commander Sgt. Button (John Cassavetes) as the fans -- including gambler Sandman (Jack Klugman), a pickpocket (Walter Pidgeon), car salesman Steve (David Janssen) and his girlfriend, Janet (Gena Rowlands) -- unknowingly risk their lives while the gunman takes aim.
