Paleo-Cinema Podcast

For Paleo-Cinema 114, I look at two movies directed by Joseph Losey. In the 1960 prison film The Criminal, Stanley Baker goes up against the system. In the 1966 Eurospy spoof Modesty Blaise, the style is much greater than the substance, and Dirk Bogarde steals the show. Emails to kultguru@gmail.com and the new voicemail number is  (206) 309-4864. Enjoy.

For 113 I look at a couple of musicals in which non-singing actors sing. The actors are Clint Eastwood, Lee Marvin and Marlon Brando and the movies are 1955’s Guys And Dolls and 1969’s bloated, over the top musical Paint Your Wagon. Feedback to kultguru@gmail.com please.

For Double One Two I discover and delight in two of Budd Boetticher and Randolph Scott’s ’s Ranown Cycle Westerns, 1956’s Seven Men From Now and 1959’s Ride Lonesome. These movies are westerns distilled to a fine essence. Email:kultguru@gmail.com The voicemail number (US) is (206) 203 3299.

This time around, another lot of the music I like and a little surprise at the end which has to do with my new project. Email:kultguru@gmail.com The voicemail number (US) is (206) 203 3299. Also you can visit The Paleo-Cinema Cafe on Facebook.

This time around I look at the career and life of Rod Taylor from King Of The Coral Sea, through The Time Machine all the way to Inglorious Basterds. Feedback is always welcome: Email:kultguru@gmail.com The voicemail number (US) is (206) 203 3299.

For 109 I look at two films from 1949 - the silly Objectivist pot-boiler The Fountainhead starring Gary Cooper and Patricia Neal and a much better British film, The Rocking Horse Winner starring John Mills, Valerie Hobson and John Howard Davies. There’s also the news that Paleo-Cinema was reviewed by The Onion AV Club, and it’s a good one. Email: kultguru@gmail.com The voicemail number (...

For Paleo-Cinema Podcast 108 I explore my Welsh ancestry with a squizz at 1972’s Under Milk Wood starring Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor and Peter O’Toole, based on the radio play by Dylan Thomas. This is followed by a tight, well-scripted and brilliantly acted but little known British crime drama from 1957, Time Without Pity starring Michael Redgrave, Leo McKern and Lois Maxwell. There’s feedback, too. Email:kultguru@gma...
