Steven Jay Rubin’s Saturday Night At The MoviesThe Battle for Hollywood
In 1950, as Hollywood was roiled by the investigations of the House Committee on Un-American Activities and the Hollywood 10 were fresh in memory, a war broke out between legendary director Cecil B. DeMille and relative director newcomer Joseph L. Mankiewicz, whom DeMille had practically appointed as president of the Screen Directors Guild. The object of that war was DeMille's demand that SDG adopt a compulsory loyalty oath. Mankiewicz refused and subsequently DeMille organized a recall campaign that led to one of the most celebrated union hall meetings in history at the Beverly Hills Hotel. This week, Steve is joined by former Sh...2025-06-0259 min

Let's Finally Watch ThisEpisode 13 – The Ten Commandments (1923)It's 1923. The building blocks of classic Hollywood are coming together and the people are enjoying silent movies in their movie palaces in the years following the Great War. Director Cecil B. DeMille, known for the biblical epic 1956 movie The Ten Commandments, releases a movie with the same title in this year.
What this first The Ten Commandments offers casual movie fans who have always meant to watch classic movies: an epic Biblical "prologue," engaging pre-noir framing of light and dark, a possibly heavy-handed morality tale, and an early example from DeMille's extensive filmography.

When I first began compiling the list of films I’m working through I saw that DeMille’s second directorial effort was the first film version of Brewster’s Millions, and I was keen to see it.

All the Movies PodcastThe Cheat (Dec. 13, 1915)The Cheat is the 23rd film Cecil B. DeMille directed. That seems like a long career, but those films were released over a span of 22 months, meaning he had less than two years as a director under his belt when he made this movie. Despite being so new to the art, his talent is apparent. This is a beautifully shot film, and includes the most effective usage of lighting and shadow that I’ve seen thus far.The story opens with Richard, played by Jack Dean, sinking his entire fortune into an investment. He informs his wife, Ed...2023-03-0110 min
Exposed : le podcast de Film Exposure21 : THE FABELMANS, le cinéma avant tout !Art particulièrement propice à l’autoréflexion et à la mise en abyme, le cinéma s’est très vite saisi de lui-même comme sujet privilégié. Ses métiers, sa vocation, ses coulisses, son histoire ; le 7e art a souvent brillé lorsqu’il était éclairé par ses propres projecteurs. De LA BANDE À ZAPATA d’Urban Gad qui mettait en scène une équipe de tournage qui ne parvient plus à distinguer les brigands de sa fiction des vrais voleurs, à l’hommage uchronique de Tarantino au Hollywood des années 1969 en passant par la rencontre avec Méliès, premier père inspirateur, dans HUGO CABR...2023-02-202h 00

All the Movies PodcastYoung Romance (Jan. 21, 1915)I’ve watched a number of films for this podcast so far that I suppose could qualify as rom-coms, but this is the first that truly embodies that genre. This isn’t a romance that happens to have some funny moments, but rather a romantic comedy built around bringing two similar people, who imagine they aren’t similar at all, together through zany coincidences and situations. This is Roman Holiday, 1915 style. Except it feels more like it has been done in a 1919 style. None of the comedies I’ve watched to this point have been anywhere near as nuanced or sophi...2023-01-0709 min

DeMille asked him if he could do for film music what Puccini did for opera. Bernstein said he didn't know, but he would love to try. Join Meghan Fitzmartin (Supernatural, DC Comics: Robin) and Chris as they talk about how The Ten Commandments took over Meghan's childhood, which of the...2022-09-261h 25
