THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture

For this month's first throwback podcast review, I was joined by Danilo Castro and Tom O'Brien to discuss the first collaboration between Academy Award-winning filmmaker Alexander Payne and Academy Award-nominated actor Paul Giamatti in "Sideways" to help us get ready for the release of their latest film together in "The Holdovers." Co-starring Thomas Hayden Church, Virginia Madsen & Sandra Oh, the film was a critical darling in 2004 and won numerous accolades for its cast and screenplay. What do we think of it nearly two decades later? Grab a glass of wine and take a listen as we discuss the story, characters, dialogue, editing, direction, its awards season run, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you! Enjoy, and no, we are not drinking any Merlot!!

"Sideways"

For this week's main podcast review, I am joined by Ema Sasic, Dan Bayer & Daniel Howat. Today, we are reviewing the newest film from Academy Award-winner Alexander Payne, "The Holdovers," starring Paul Giamatti, Da'Vine Joy Randolph, and newcomer Dominic Sessa. The Christmas comedy-drama had its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival, where many hailed it as a return to form for Payne and his best film since the 2004 Oscar-winning "Sideways." Reuniting for the first time with Paul Giamatti since that film's release, will this one find similar success with the Academy? Tune in as we discuss its awards potential, characters, writing, performances, 1970s cinematic aesthetic, and more in our review. Thank you, and enjoy!

"The Holdovers"

"The Holdovers" had its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival, where it received some of Alexander Payne's best reviews since "Sideways." It later screened at the Toronto International Film Festival to similar acclaim and was the runner-up for the Toronto People's Choice Award. Re-uniting Paul Giamatti with Payne, the film is one of the rare films from Payne that neither he nor his collaborator Jim Taylor wrote together. Screenwriter David Hemingson was kind enough to spend a few moments speaking with us about the script, how he came on board the project, working with Payne, and more. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in limited release and will expand on November 10th from Focus Features. Thank you, and enjoy!

Review: The Holdovers

(MILDLY SPOILER-FREE, NO SIGNIFICANT DETAILS)

IT’S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR and I think it’s obvious what this month’s overarching theme will be and it might get a little offbeat but on Wednesdays (at least) we will be going to the movies for our picks and it looks like there is a lot of good looking flicks to be seen. Although…”Wonka”??? Not sure if we want to contribute to the “Fantastic Beasts” version of the Roald Dahl-verse and the new Aquaman looks like even more of a video game cut scene than the first one did though anything featuring an Octopus playing drums automatically gets an additional half point. To get our theater selections started off on the right foot we set out for an actual Christmas movie and we happened to have caught it in 35mm at our local independent movie theater. We’re discussing Alexander Payne’s brand new “70’s” movie “The Holdovers” starring Paul Giamatti, Da’Vine Joy Randolph & Dominic Sessa. An unlikable and over academic prep school professor must keep ward of a troublesome and emotionally isolated student during Christmas break while in the company of the school cook who is mourning the loss of a son. Thankfully, this wry story of solitude isn’t some overtly saccharine dramatic piece. It’s sweetness feels more realistic. How does Alexander Payne’s latest hold up? Let us tell you all about it (WITH NO SIGNIFICANT DETAILS) unless you’re some sort of penis cancer in human form.

The Holdovers (2023)

Well-written, brilliant acted and wonderfully human, The Holdovers is one of the best anti-holiday movies in a long time.

Scott's Self-Indulgent Movie Podcast

Episode 774: The Holdovers

In der heurigen Award-Season hat sich ein Film nach vorne gepirscht, der auch bei den Oscars stark vertreten ist: THE HOLDOVERS - von einem Jungeninternat und einem teuflisch fiesen Geschichtslehrer. Wir empfehlen euch diesen Film wärmstens! Daher widmen sich Raul und Tobit in der heutigen Folge auch dem Regisseur, Alexander Payne, dessen Filme durch eine tragikomische Ader durchzogen sind. Was könnt ihr also erwarten? Schwarzer Humor, Alkohol, Fremdgehen, Voice Overs, Road Trips und eine gute Zeit.

156: PAYNE - Das tut weh!! (Alexander Payne)

Alexander Payne evokes the Seventies in form and aesthetic in The Holdovers, a comedy-drama about the students and staff forced to stay at a New England boarding school over Christmas. It exudes charm and, over time, warmth, as the frosty relationship between student and teacher thaws, Payne handles the meandering tone beautifully, and it's full of good jokes. For José, it doesn't quite reach the level of the best in its genre; for Mike, it's a good genre film elevated by some mysterious cinematic alchemy he doesn't understand.

Recorded on 26th January 2024.

417 - The Holdovers

The Holdovers (2023) directed by Alexander Payne.

A curmudgeonly instructor at a New England prep school remains on campus during Christmas break to babysit a handful of students with nowhere to go. He soon forms an unlikely bond with a brainy but damaged troublemaker, and with the school's head cook, a woman who just lost a son in the Vietnam War.

Episode 209: The Holdovers

De zevende aflevering van het vierde seizoen van Cinepraatjes, de podcast van Cinemaatjes. We blikken vooruit op ons 7-jarig bestaan. We staan nog even stil bij het overlijden van Shelley Duvall en Donald Sutherland. Het is even geleden, want William is op vakantie geweest naar San Francisco. William heeft daar in een kast van een platenzaak een aantal soundtrack platen gekocht en in een Café gezeten waar Francis Ford Coppola het script van ‘The Godfather’ heeft geschreven. We kwamen elkaar ook tegen op een platenbeurs in Tilburg en ook daar kochten we soundtracks. MCU haalt een noodgreep uit door Robert Downey Jr. te presenteren als Dr. Doom. We hebben het even over stemacteurs die aan het staken zijn. JP zag de trailer van de nieuwe Kevin Smith film ‘The 4:30 Movie’ en dat gaf hem toch weer hoop. We zijn weer gevraagd om te jureren op het BUT Film Festival en we zullen daar zeker ook te vinden zijn. Marino schuift ons weer een sonnet voor, waarvan wij proberen te raden waar het over gaat. William zag een aantal films in het vliegtuig waaronder ‘The Holdovers’ van Alexander Payne. JP wil het even kort over ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ hebben en wat uitgebreider over ‘Longlegs’ met o.a. Nicolas Cage en William wil ook nog kort ‘Marcel The Shell with Shoes On’ bespreken, die JP heeft afgezet. We trokken weer eens iets uit de VHS Slasher kast nl. ‘Silent Scream’. In onze Special bespreken we Teen movies en specifieker High School films. Uiteraard beantwoorden we ook weer vragen van luisteraars over o.a. zomerfilms, podcasten op locatie en/of met gasten, product placement in films, acteurs die we niet kunnen uitstaan en wanneer een film te ver gaat. Veel luisterplezier!

S04e07 - The Holdovers, Longlegs, Deadpool & Wolverine, High School films en veel meer over films

A bi-weekly podcast where two film lovers take turns to recommend a film the other has not seen, they watch and then skype to discuss it. Spoilers are a given. Orla McNelis and Ricardo Deakin, Dublin and Toronto.

A podcast by NextBestPicture.com that reviews the latest film releases and discusses various topics within the world of film and the awards race.

MMO is talk radio for movie fans with weekly news shows, reviews, previews, and special guests. We celebrate the Oscars by making awards season year round, without the stuffiness. If you love cinema, if you love showbiz, welcome home.

"I have this romantic idea of the movies as a conjunction of place, people and experiences, all different for each of us, a context in which individual and separate beings try to commune, where the individual experience overlaps with the communal and where that overlapping is demarcated by how we measure the differing responses between ourselves and the rest of the audience: do they laugh when we don’t (and what does that mean?); are they moved when we feel like laughing (and what does that say about me or the others) etc. The idea behind this podcast is to satiate the urge I sometimes have when I see a movie alone – to eavesdrop on what others say. What do they think? How does their experience compare to mine? Snippets are overhead as one leaves the cinema and are often food for thought. A longer snippet of such an experience is what I hope to provide: it’s two friends chatting immediately after a movie. It’s unrehearsed, meandering, slightly convoluted, certainly enthusiastic, and well informed, if not necessarily on all aspects a particular work gives rise to, certainly in terms of knowledge of cinema in general and considerable experience of watching different types of movies and watching movies in different types of ways. It’s not a review. It’s a conversation." - José Arroyo.

"I just like the sound of my own voice." - Michael Glass.
