KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON (PETER CANAVESE) CELLULOID DREAMS THE MOVIE SHOW (SCREEN SCENE) 10-26-23

CELLULOID DREAMS THE MOVIE SHOW -- 12/14/23 

THIS WEEK'S SHOW:  

Based on historical fact and using real names, THE ZONE OF INTEREST is a Holocaust movie like no other. Instead of Auschwitz scenes, it focuses on the lives of a Nazi commandant and his family who live in a house next to the camp and their mundane day-to-day activities, with the real horrors conveyed by the faint sounds that escape over the wall. We sit down with lead ensemble actor Christian Friedel. 

Both a comedic thriller and a satirical indictment of the contemporary art market, THE KILL ROOM finds a struggling art gallery owner teaming with a hit man/money-launderer whose kills become mistaken for avante-garde art. Joining us to further the commentary is director Nicol Paone (FRIENDSGIVING). 

Then, "Screen Scene" movie reviews including LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND,THE MISSION,MR. MONK'S LAST CASE: A MONK MOVIE,MERRY LITTLE BATMAN,WONKA,THE ZONE OF INTEREST, MONSTER, CHICKEN RUN: DAWN OF THE NUGGET, MAESTRO,THE UNKNOWN COUNTRY.

THIS WEEK'S SHOW: Scares (and a few laughs) from the archive! 

When a sheltered teen is subject to merciless torment at school and righteous condemnation from her zealot mother, she discovers she has developed latent-- and terrifying-- powers of telekinesis. Pushed too far, her revenge is both inevitable and ultimate. Director Kimberly Peirce (BOYS DON'T CRY) talks about the 2013 incarnation of CARRIE. [from 2013]

An unassuming, reclusive family with deep ancestral customs finds their quiet existence threatened when their small town is hit by an unrelenting downpour. A tragedy provides the catalyst to bring the family's dark secret into the light. The film is WE ARE WHAT WE ARE, and joining us is co-writer/director Jim Mickle (STAKE LAND). [from 2013] 

In a small town, actor Bruce Campbell, mistaken for his EVIL DEAD character Ash, is recruited to fight a real demon that's been accidentally disturbed. On this show, our conversation is with the real actor-DIRECTOR Bruce Campbell, who talks about his heightened cinematic doppelganger, the Hollywood game, celebrity and good old acting... oh-- and this movie: MY NAME IS BRUCE! [from 2008]

THIS WEEK'S SHOW: Voting season... or is it still scary season?? 

From 2008: In 2024, when the election cycle is monumental and crazier than any fiction, we revisit our 2008 conversation with actor Kevin Costner for SWING VOTE, where the deciding vote of an entire presidential election comes down to one man: a single slacker dad in New Mexico. 

From 2018: How Senator Gary Hart's 1988 presidential campaign was unceremoniously discontinued after his being caught in a scandalous love affair is dramatized in THE FRONT RUNNER, based on the book by Matt Bai. We're joined by the film's three main storytellers: author/co-writer Bai, writer Jay Carson and co-writer/director Jason Reitman (SATURDAY NIGHT).
