The 300 Passions Podcast

Jean Simmons and Marlon Brando are couple goals in this rather lengthy musical. I think it's impossible to avoid being charmed by them.

It was an honour to have one of the hosts of Hawke Cast, a terrifically funny, informative podcast, on as a guest. Kyle had a lot to say about the thematic content of The Fly and we even found time to talk about the bizarre comic that Passengers (2016) was based on. "50 Girls 50" sounds a lot more exciting than what we ended up getting.

I never expected to have so much to say about Superman II but Artie B. was a terrific guest and brought a whole heap of research to the table. We delved into the film's troubled production history, its confusing structure and the improbability of some of the plot points.

I'm not going to lie. Most of this episode was about the greatness of Natalie Wood in Sex and the Single Girl and Jackson's appearance in a high school production of The Taming of the Shrew. We did talk about the film itself for a brief period of time but we could only find so much to say about it.

Ronaldo Sosa is back to talk about his love for Nomadland and his hatred of Two Distant Strangers. We got diverted several points, which was mostly my fault, but please bear with us.

Manish Mathur brought gleeful enthusiasm to our discussion of this infamous flop and caused me to think about this film in a different light. We had a lot of fun talking about some of the more extravagant aspects of the production, the times where it seemed like Liz and Dick were bored and the downfall of the Biblical Epic genre. He also shared his appreciation of some of the most famous actresses of the 1960s and Liz herself received a mention.

We finally got to discuss Liz's first Academy Award nomination on the show. Unfortunately, that involved talking about a racist, godawful mess. I was joined by the eloquent, sassy Chelsea Eiccholz and she entertainingly ripped this terrible film apart. We attacked the underuse of Agnes Moorehead, the unnecessary length and Montgomery Clift's deer in headlights expression. 

We also found some time to discuss her favourite 1950s actresses and it's no surprise that Audrey Hepburn showed up on the list.

Alex and I chatted about this largely forgotten romantic melodrama in which Liz is torn between two controlling men. One is obsessed with her and the other is totally fixated on his music studies. There were a lot of reasons why this one flopped at the box office and we got into the bumps in the road that Liz faced during the mid-1950s. We also briefly discussed the fact that this film never feels like it is set in Switzerland and question most of Louise Durant's decisions.

The phenomenally talented David S. Caballero joined me to talk about the first of two 1954 films that will be covered in this miniseries. 

We talked about the unfair vilification of Donna Reed, the fact that this film could be set in any relatively large European city and why we wouldn't leave a small child in the care of an alcoholic who was partly responsible for the death of his wife.

We start off our very exciting foray into the wonderful world of Liz Taylor, with this dreary costume drama. Sadly, Liz and a marvellous Joan Fontaine are sidelined in favour of podcast nemesis Robert Taylor. I was lucky enough to have an extraordinary co-host and he brought a remarkable spirit to his discussion of the jousting scenes. We didn't enjoy this film, but we did have fun talking about it.
