Orson Welles: Mercurial Magician Part 3 of 3 ('Film Gold' podcast episode 31)
Просмотров 673 месяца назад
Just as Orson Welles finally bowed out in 1985, we must do the same. This time round Antony and Ghosty pick up Orson’s film career from his acting gig in the sublime ‘The Third Man’, a couple of returns to Shakespeare territory and a trio of absolute masterworks of his own making, namely ‘Touch of Evil’, ‘The Trial’ and ‘F For Fake’ (plus a couple of other films along the way). Finally we look ...

Antony and Luke tackle William Friedkin's underrated thriller, starring Roy Scheider. This film wasn't a success in its day but it's been reassessed over the decades and could now be considered a 'hidden masterpiece'. The plot is very simple but the film is marvellously evocative, and the production of the film is a story in itself... Hope you enjoy it! 'Film Gold' is on all the main podcast pl...

Monty Python & The Holy Grail (1975) film review ('Film Gold' podcast episode 15)
The lady was pregnant at the time of death was she not ? That would edge my bet for obtaining a motive that TE killed her during one of his rages. He confessed to the Police that he had killed his wife and child.
There's now been way worse serial killers since Christie, Rosemary and Fred West for example, the Moor murders Myra Hindley and Ian Brady
Come on .. John Christie ..Killed Beryl and the baby He was a serial killer He had killed before The first two victims killed 43 & 44 , killed in the most cruellest of ways then raping their corpses 😮 After killings, he put their bodies in the washhouse ,then in the garden and carried on with his life. Do you think killing Beryl and baby ... He would have lost sleep after this ?. He prayed on peoples weaknesses, and he was sexually interested in Beryl The baby was in the way. John Christie was the type to frame and plant evidence on poor Timothy Evan, he proved this. He went on to kill four more women, including his own wife Killing Beryl and the baby would have been a breeze for him.
John Lennon was a Genius,but your voice is lovely, can tell how much of a fan you are by trying to get as close to the original as you possibly can with your vocal,nice one
Iq don't mean jack
Looks a right khazi prob worth a million now
That was great, very enjoyable tune, thank you!
Fred and Rose West seemingly ceased sexual murders in 1979, to resume in 1987 with the 'convenience' killing of Heather West in 1987. I know this isn't quite what you meant with regards to serial killers and quiet times, but it's an interesting angle.
Sad to hear that Pat Heywood (Ethel Christie) has passed away on 26th.June 2024, aged 92, leaving Judy Geeson (Beryl Evans) the last survivor of the film's four main stars.
I only found out last year, my 84 yes old brother was a contractor who pulled down Rillington Place. He apparently knew of the Christie case via the news, it didn't realise till a work colleague called it Killington Place when demolition started.

The 5 greatest movies ABOUT America are Deliverance, His Girl Friday, Citizen Kane, On The Waterfront, and Bonnie & Clyde. The bottom 5 of the top ten would probably be Easy Rider, Red River, Rio Bravo, The Godfather, and Used Cars (honest). Honorable mention must go to Only Angels Have Wings, Gone With The Wind (as a relic), and maybe The Thing From Another World 1951.
Amy Irving does not go to a grave. She goes to the For Sale sign on the property. Someone has spray-painted "Carrie White Burns In Hell" on it. A few people have left flowers. When Amy (Sue Snell) lays her flowers down, a hand comes out of the ground and grabs her. Then she screams and wakes up in a hospital. Whose hand? What kind of hospital we never learn. It is a cheap jump scare with nothing to do with the rest of the movie. Deliverance has no jump scares. The guy on the cliff appears slowly. Drew's battered body is shown at a distance and then the camera follows Ed and Bobby's POV slowly showing Drew closer and closer. Even the bloated hand rises slowly out of the water, not fast like in Carrie.
And let us never forget the last scene with Ed, bad dreams, eyes open in bed, haunted by the river and what migjt come up. And equally haunted by the instrumental "Duelin' Banjos" which begins playing but sounds like Ed is hearing it from a 1930s radio set sitting in another room. Tinny and echoey. Ghost music. Then the synth comes back on and we see the river again, and we dont know how long it'll keep its secrets.
The locals in Deliverance are the best use of locals IN ANY MOVIE. Including Mystic River and The Town. They are the MVPs of this movie. And De Palma was never shy about giving Deliverance credit for the jump scare at the end of Carrie 1976. Dickey is white Southern menace at its most menacing.
This is the closest Hollywood ever came to Greek Tragedy in the strict Aristotelian sense of the term: their (the 4) are brought down by hubris. 1. Bill McKinney was the 3rd man in the cab of the pickup that went to the drop-off point/drive-back in the beginning. He heard Bobby and Lewis being assholes at the gas station. The glimpse is brief; you to look for it. But McKinney is there. So he and Toothless Man were tracking them almost from the start. 2. Nice Guy Ed's hubris is mentioning a still, stereotyping the duo as Hollywood Hillbillies. 3. At first, McKinney and Coward are being playful bullies, having fun and being menacing and scaring Ed and Bobby. But when Ed mentions a still the tone changes to murderous. Ed and,Bobby cant talk their way out at that point. 4. Drew's hubris is thinkkng he's Allan Lomax of the Library Of Congress, come to commune with ancient music and descendants of the originators of that ancient music. Like Mick Jagger with the blues, Drew is a folkie. He no more wants to live Rye Whiskey than Jagger wants to live Prodigal Son; but they want to play those songs with as much sincerity and prettified soul as they can. And Drew has entered the Appalachia of the Carter Family. He expects to be treated like the uoper class intellectual that he is, and he expects his Steinbeckian love for folk music to transcend everything and expects the mountaineers to be grateful to him for loving that music. He doesnt get that this is an area as full of menace as the south side of black Chicago, home of Chess Records and electric blues is to the wrong outsider. 5. Look at the functional plain work clothes of everyone, at their hair, at what they talk about and, more importantly, what they dont talk about (Vietnam, race riots, civil rights, drugs, school busing, forced integration, college riots, hippies, black militants, NASA, how the media portrays white Southerners while forgetting that most racial animus was in the Northeast and New England and L.A./San Francisco). NOTHING dates this film except the price of gas. 6. From the first settlers (a comparison invoked by Lewis) to settling the Plains to chattel slavery to the Little Big Horn battle to the Mexican-American war to the Spanish-American war to Korea and Vietnam, America is Manifest Destiny Sometimes Thwarted. Hubris, in other words. Dying of a disease or in war it terrible but not Tragic. Greek Tragedy is the bad thing happening because of something YOU did. Arrogance. Hubris. Kicking indigenous people off their land. Not respecting the ability of indigenous people to fight back. Overwhelming the world with our Heavy Industry and technology. The Little Bighorn and Vietnam happened when we underestimated a Bronze Age people and little guys in black pyjamas and they beat us and/or simply outlasted us. 7. Ed and Bobby KNOW they just survived by dumb luck, that neither one was "Delivered."
It certainly wasn't me.
Thanks for uploading this 3 years ago. Just found it. Very interesting and informative.
Great job lads, this is without out my favourite movies.
I have that Martin Fido cassette tape of 10 Rillington Place and the Yorkshire ripper one...🥳🤭
Yeah, I had the cassette too. Those were the days!

Ha, I said it's the 15th roundtable! It's the 16th!
Close enough 😁
Love this film it's my fave..great commentary aswell guys i really enjoyed it thanks👍🏻
talentless 100% talentless
legend has it Christie can still be sighted on a dark night where the house once stood and disappears just as quick
Interesting analysis! I always had trouble getting behind this movie because I feel like there's a lack of moral contrast within, but Ellen Burstyn's parts are fantastic!
Good job but if ya want a continuity error check out your still. Look how Quint is holding the line, then look how Hooper is holding said line. There's no way Hooper could hold that line attached to that shark! Fingers would be ripped out at the knuckles.....
Great episode. Thank you
'Tiny garden' 'tiny house' no, not really, not by any standard. This lot must have grown up in very large houses with huge ground.
Should never have been knocked down.
You can SMELL this movie. The NYC cinematography is one of the best I've seen in any film and the score is fantastic as well.
You guys have good taste. Enjoying these
My mates dad grew up on rillington place at that time..as a kid, he said christie was scary...
Interesting. Do you know if he ever met Evans? The remaining mystery of the case is what exactly happened to Beryl and poor little Geraldine
Mates family name is Glass
@@AntonyRotunnoquestion for you Where does the Halliday part of his name come from...?
@@AntonyRotunnoI have no knowledge My reference was to something I was told back in the 70's....tho ,no reason to doubt...
@@VONCEIL1 I think it's his mother's maiden name
Romero was 27/28 when he made it.
Feels like I'm having a stroke when I hear the music. It is such a confusing mash-up of different pieces of Beates songs.
Nice, very nice!
I became interested in this horrific case as a 20 something. I visited many years ago to find that the street no longer existed. I read the books, re watched the fulms and walked around the area.
LEP and Film Gold Podcast are deeply intertwined. This is heat of the moment.
I can remember watching ‚The Wages of Fear‘ in my childhood. Oh boy, I was glued to the screen. Sorcerer seems to be a remake I have never come across. I‘ll give it a go and watch it in the next few days. I still have that amazing episode about ‚This is Spinal Tap‘ in my mind 😬
Good stuff! Bought the hardcover from Bloomsbury in Queens on release in 98
Just think about it.its virtually impossible that Evans killed anyone.cosidsring Christie confessed.what reasons would Christie have to confess to the murders if he didn't do it ? It's total nonsense that evans killed his wife because Christie is the obvious killer with form testimony .
If you're only going to listen for 5 minutes so don't hear what we have to say, what's the point of commenting on it? Christie confessed to have more chance of an insanity plea. You want to talk about confessions- Evans confessed 3 times! in great detail as to how he killed his wife. He was also seen twice by the neighbours attempting to strangle his wife. Why don't you just listen to it with an open mind? Two of the contributers spent years researching their very detailed books on the case, and Jonathan Oates, who has no reason to favour one scenario or another, has had access to more official files on the case than you and I will ever see and firmly believes Evans was guilty. Finally, despite what you will see in true crime documentaries, Evans was never declared innocent! it was found that he 'probably killed his wife', and only received a pardon because the Brabin report in 1966 found that Christie 'probably killed baby Geraldine', the crime that Evans was hung for
@@AntonyRotunno not this documentary I was talking about shrouded hands video.i listened to the whole of your podcast
@@darrenburke9630 Oh right, sorry about that
@@AntonyRotunno yeh no worries it's easy to get these messages the wrong way around.ive done it loads .
It is hard to believe that there's people in the world who will go to those lengths for basically what amounts to a sexual thrill. I've always thought their sex drives must be so overwhelming that they cannot control it.
A very intelligent conversation filled with smart, pertinent questions & comments. BUT the volume from the television"s playback, was way too loud. often drowning out the dialogue between the two men. Their conversation often lost out & all I could hear was the TV. Please mind this problem when you are preparing future programs.. Thank you for posting this, even if we had trouble with the audio.
I know, I'm sorry. This was back in 2013 when I had no editing software and no knowledge of any of this. Glad you liked the content anyway
I had seen the Attenborough film & didn't want revisit anything about thir matter. But I'm a big fan of Tim Roth's wotk, so I finally had to watch the 2016 miniseries. Roth's acting was haunting . There was so little dialogue, but his manner, the way he walked about looking down,& saying only what needed to be said. Chilling. Regarding Christie's wife, if she knew an ounce of info. abt. young Beryl, their baby & setting up Evans then she was culpable. Omission of such horror, makes her an accessory to the crimes.
I enjoyed Roth's performance too, but if you listen to the end of Part 2 of this talk, you will hear 4 people who have between them years and years of study of this case and zero skin in the game, state that we're all 90-something % convinced that Evans killed his wife. There's too much to go into here but Evans was not set up, and the release of the official files proved beyond doubt that Evans was not the harmless dimwit that John Hurt portrayed in the 1970 film.
Tim Roth's film was very good.
I want to see what they're looking at.!
Yes, worth watching the film along with this
has anyone seen obscure classics like 'The Island', 'The Hand', 'Blame it on Rio', 'Escape to Victory'? The thing about Michael is he always requires attention even when he's doing rubbish.
I must confess to having seen all of them, Ed. I agree and I think we said this. He's comfort food for me, and things like 'Blame It On Rio' are quite enjoyable in their simplicity. Jaws 4 is 'a bridge too far' though, if you know what I mean 😁
@@AntonyRotunno one of the all time turkeys
