Janette's TV Podcast

Imagine being sent away by your mother as a child and wondering if you would ever see her or your father again. 

That’s what happed to Jane Litwack and her sisters when all three young Jews escaped Nazism, making their way from Czechoslovakia to Holland to England aboard the Kinder Transport to reside with a foster family and rebuild their lives – all thanks to British humanitarian, Nicholas Winton 

I met Jane at the 2023 TIFF ONE LIFE movie premier which tells the story of Winton (portrayed by actors Anthony Hopkins & Johnny Flynn). The movie opens in wide release this January. In this episode, Jane recalls her memories of survival and gratitude towards Winton.

Have you ever been involved in a scandal or the subject of idle gossip? How did you cope?

 

Wicked Little Letters is a 2023 British black comedy mystery film directed by Thea Sharrock and written by Jonny Sweet. Set to be released in 2024, the film stars Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley in the lead roles, along with Anjana Vasan, Malachi Kirby, Eileen Atkins and Timothy Spall in supporting roles.

 

Based on a true scandal that stunned 1920s England, the story centers on neighbours Edith Swan (played by Colman) and Rose Gooding (played by Buckley) in the seaside town of Littlehampton, England. One day, a series of obscene letters begin to target Edith and others, with suspicion falling upon Rose. As the outrageous letters continue to escalate, Rose risks losing both her freedom and custody of her daughter. Police Officer Gladys Moss (played by Vasan) is determined to find the real culprit, and along with a group of other women, seeks to solve this perplexing mystery.

 
At their TIFF red-carpet premier, in this episode, I talk with producer/writer, Ed Sinclair (Olivia Colman’s husband) about the dangers of competition amongst women, what can be learned when rumors are started & lives are potentially ruined, and how the story serves as female empowerment piece.

Have you ever been so disgusted by something that you felt compelled to take action to change it and you?


“LEE” is a biopic movie starring Kate Winslet that tells the story of photographer Elizabeth 'Lee' Miller, an American fashion model who became an acclaimed war correspondent for Vogue magazine during World War II.

The movie, set to be released in 2024, covers the most significant decade of Miller’s life and also stars Big Little Lies actor Alexander Skarsgård, Andrea Riseborough, Josh O’Connor and Marion Cotillard.

In this episode, at their TIFF red-carpet premier, I talk with Producer, Kate Solomon about Kate Winslet role as ‘Lee Miller’ and what Lee experienced on the front lines during World War II inside Nazi Germany. And how Miller used her camera to give a voice to the voiceless and, consequently, how her shocking and horrific photographs, taken at Dachau concentration camp and around Europe, remain some of the most historically important of the second world war.

Imagine lying in a hospital during COVID, dealing with serious health issues
and being told to abort your unborn child.

Prior to her receiving a kidney transplant in 2022 from her sister-in-law,

that's what doctors at Kingston Health Sciences Center in Kingston, Ontario,
Canada advised Sarah Albert & her husband Adam, to do



Despite not being genetically disposed to the disease or experiencing high
sugar levels, in 1999, Sarah was diagnosed with Diabetes. Soon after, the
young mom to her 3-and-a-half-year-old son Leo, was also diagnosed with aHUS
(atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome) - an extremely rare, life-threatening
blood condition with a genetic component that affects multiple organs,
particularly the kidneys.



In this episode, Sarah joins me to share her story, the gratitude she has
for her sister-in-law, the ups & downs of her kidney transplant, going on
dialysis with a newborn at home, her role as Patient Experience Advocate &
Donor Activist, and more!

Have you ever taken a stand or gone to battle for something you strongly believed in?Written by Lucinda Coxon & Nick Drake, the movie ONE LIFE is based on the book, “If it’s not impossible… The life of Sir Nicholas Winton” by Barbara Winton.In wide release January 2024, the movie tells the true story of Sir Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton, a young London banker who, on the eve of World War II, saved 669 children from the Nazis – more than the number of children who survived the Holocaust in Czechoslovakia. With war fast approaching, Winton visited a recently annexed Prague, witnessing first-hand Jewish refugee families with little to no shelter and food. He immediately realized it was a race against time to see how many children he and his friends could rescue before time ran out. Fifty years later, in 1988, Winton is haunted by the fate of the children he couldn’t bring to safety in England. It’s not until a live television show “That’s Life” surprises him with the surviving children – now adults – seated all around him that he can finally make peace with the loss he had carried for five decades.I caught up with James Hawes, the film’s director, on the red-carpet at the 2023 TIFF premier to talk about why this movie was made now, Winton’s impact & legacy, and what viewers need to take away after seeing it.

Have you ever lost faith, hope, or courage? Felt like you didn’t belong? Or wished you could pick your family like you do your friends?

 

Set in Montreal in the 1980’s and told from the perspective of an orphaned girl with a strong-will (played by Keris Hope Hill), Rosie is a ground-breaking, bilingual, Indigenous, queer, Canadian movie written, directed, & produced by Gail Maurice. It stars co-producer, Melanie Bray in the lead role of “Fred” (Frédèrique), the child’s francophone aunt, whom she ends up having to live with.

 

On the verge of being evicted from her apartment, jobless, and making art from items she finds in the trash, Fred is in no position to take care of Rosie. But with the support of her two gender-bending friends, Flo (played by Constant Bernard) & Mo (played by Alex Trahan), she manages her new responsibility and Rosie adjusts to a new community.

 

I caught up with Gail & Melanie on the red-carpet at the 2023 Canadian Screen Actors Awards, where Rosie was nominated for Best Achievement in Writing, to talk about Gail’s 25-year journey in getting this film made, the importance of believing in yourself (as so many women don’t), and not giving-up.

In this interview, I speak with Vincent Ménard and Mathieu Ardon Ktistakis, writers and producers and Vincent star of the Short Film Trial – a dark comedy-thriller, featured in 2023’s Vaughan International Film Festival, International Block 1 Screenings. The film depicts a lone hiker during one of his trips into the wilderness and the macabre discovery he makes that transformed his tranquil weekend into a fight for survival.
 
From braving bone-chilling Canadian winter weather outside Quebec, to casting issues, filming without a permit to the process of creating make-believe blood, we discuss everything that went into the production of this film.
