Joan Crawford may have haunted the set, but the real terror on 1981’s Mommie Dearest was Faye Dunaway.

As Mommie would say: bring us the axe!

June 19, 2023 Below The Line - Safety On Set (with Dave Chameides)
This week we are joined by friend of the pod, legendary steadiam operator, Dave Chameides, to talk about safety. Too often on this podcast we find ourselves discussing people being hurt or killed in situations that could have been avoided. In his extensive career, Dave has worked with the Local 600 Safety Committee to establish on-set safety guidelines and protocols that keep cast and crew safe. Join us for a discussion on what has been done, and the work that remains to be done to keep people safe while they make the films and TV shows we know and love.
Check out Dave's podcast, The Op, for more on the art of camera operating and cinematography.

June 12, 2023 Dune (1984)
20,000 extras, 1,000 pounds of spaghetti, and 1 unexplainable pug! This week, Chris & Lizzie fold space to learn how Dune birthed Alien, David Lynch died the slow death, and Patrick Stewart destroyed Sting’s ego (accidentally!).
*CORRECTIONS:
*Chris referred to the studio space in Mexico City as the largest in "South America" which is obviously wrong because Mexico City is in North America. He meant that it was the largest in the Southern Hemisphere (at the time).

May 29, 2023 Bram Stoker's Dracula
Rivers of blood, beds full of rats, and a questionable British accent! This week Lizzie & Chris pry open the coffin for a look at Francis Ford Coppola's gothic guignol. Learn how The Godfather: Part III may have made this adaptation possible and why, in this case, nepotism worked in Dracula's favor.

May 15, 2023 Super Mario Bros. (1993)
What took 9 screenwriters, 2 directors, and an unlimited supply of Bob Hoskins’ scotch? Super Mario Bros., the first ever big-screen video game adaptation (that nearly killed the genre)! Join Chris & producer David Boman as they explore how Japan’s beloved Brooklyn plumbers found themselves battling Dino-DNA Dennis Hopper in a dystopian alternate dimension.
*CORRECTIONS:
David Snyder was not the production designer of 'Blade Runner', he was the art director. The production designer of that incredible film was Lawrence G. Paull.
Chris mistakenly states that the 2000 film 'Wonder Boys' starred Topher Grace - it did not, but rather featured Tobey Maguire.
