The Cannes Lineup with Christina Jeurling Birro: An Oscars Year In Preview Part 4 - ORC 4/12/25

The Pink Panther movies are part of an enduring cinema comedy franchise, an ever-sillier slapstick human cartoon brought to you by the genius of Blake Edwards and Peters Sellers.  11 films total.  6 starring Sellers. 7 directed by Edwards.  Only 5 are any good.  They can re-cast James Bond every few years and no one really cares, but try to recast Inspector Clouseau and it spells disaster. Oh, they’ve tried to put the series on life support a few times before, but without Sellers there simply is no Pink Panther.  Period. 

0:00 - Intros
4:15 - The Gorge (2025)
10:00 - Anora (2024)
16:25 - Dr. No and From Russia with Love
24:30 - Burke and Hare (2010)
30:10 - The Pink Panther

Episode 330 - The Pink Panther Vs. Inspector Clouseau

Taurus season is coming up! Taurus game recognizes Taurus game. Maya is finally going to turn that spare room into a dressing room. The only thing standing in the way is a dumb treadmill. Amy is championing this inside “she shed”. Amy wants to take Producer Tyler on a shopping spree. The ladies recap Morgan Wallen’s SNL history and recent beef. Morgan…you’re a problematic king. But also, do better. Maya is concerned. KQRS, the local “oldies classic rock” station, has changed its format to 90s rock, which are actually “oldies” now. Amy reviews the restaurant Yard House. They have a screen problem. She hates it, but will she go back? Of course. Maya sends a strongly worded satisfaction survey to the infamous Gas Light Inn. Amy practices some private investigation, and Maya thinks there is a fine line between research and stalking. Animal Report: A cautionary tail…Sea lions lose their minds. Amy reviews Will Smith’s new album. Spoiler Alert: She confesses that she thinks “it’s kinda good", also she's “so embarrassed”.  Apparently, it’s approved?!?!?  Amy reviews Anora and The Brutalist. Amy thinks it’s appropriately named. Approved/Denied: American Airlines has a new policy. Don’t eff with the gate agents.

"Anora... Anora...
Я снова в этом сне...
Где ты?...

Я теряю себя в этих жёлтых фонарях,
Твои глаза – как разбитый экран Nokia.
Мы не дети, но верим в конец света,
Мои демоны смеются – им не до запретов.

9mice на repeat — я забыл, как дышать,
Ты не dead — ты просто lag в моём сердце
Я не сплю – я горю в этом коде,
Ты мертв, просто ещё не вышел в титр.

Anora! Я тону в твоих волосах,
Это не любовь – это боль и пентаграммы.
Anora! Ты исчезла в моих глазах,
Я разбил телефон – но ты всё ещё звонишь...


Ты не ангел – ты призрак в моём подъезде,
Твои губы – это шрамы на моей стене.
Я не плачу – это дождь за окном,
Но он красный – и пахнет твоим парфюмом.

Мои друзья – это тени от фонарей,
Твой голос – это вирус в моих снах.
Я не верю в конец, но он близко,
Мы не дети – мы пепел на ветру.

Anora...
Я всё ещё жду тебя...
В этом сне...
Где мы...
Умерли..."

This is a song I wrote about a situation someone else went through that really touched me. This is a demo and I just uploaded the first half of the song, because it needs a lot of polishing, but I'm really proud of the lyrics and want to start sharing many of my hundreds of songs. 

So here goes nothing :)
