Main Street MoxieEpisode 42: Moxie by Proxy: Nat Benchley on Peter BenchleySend us a textFifty years ago, a human vs. beast thriller set in a summer beach town was published and devoured by readers. That book was Jaws, a best-selling novel that spawned a blockbuster movie the following year. Between the book and the film, we were all afraid to go back in the water. Peter Benchley, an established journalist and speechwriter, was instantly catapulted to fame as an author. Getting to that point took moxie! In this Moxie by Proxy episode, we talk with Nat...

The Latest GenerationThe Latest for June 30, 20241. Jaws Post on Facebook on June 29th mentioned the Quint speech from Jaws, which, for all it's wonderful, has the wrong date "So, eleven hundred men went into the water. 316 men come out, the sharks took the rest, June the 29th, 1945. Anyway, we delivered the bomb." https://www.history.navy.mil/.../after-action-report-of... BUT...the date is completely wrong. It was July 30, 1945 - just after midnight, local time, right about 2 weeks after Trinity, a week before Hiroshima. http://www.ussunderhill.org/html/sorryno.htm About a week before Indianapolis was...

Elton Reads A Book A Week"F*ck the ocean" Beast by Peter BenchleyWhen I say the word “ocean”, what do you think about? For me, it's a mix of fascination and abject terror. I'd chock that up to my innate ability to sink in almost any body of water and/or liquid...and my fear of dying in it. That and if I go in too far and can’t feel the bottom, I freak out a little. It’s because I picture all the giant man eating monsters that definitely are swimming all around and beneath me, so, I panic and move back to shallower waters. In this episode...

There's Sometimes a BuggyHollywood Studios Year-by-Year – Universal – 1940: THE HOUSE OF THE SEVEN GABLES and THE INVISIBLE MAN RETURNSFor this Universal 1940 Studios Year by Year episode, we look at a Vincent Price double feature that also features the same director (Joe May), cinematographer (Milton Krasner), and key screenwriter (Lester Cole, who will become one of the Hollywood Ten): The House of the Seven Gables, an adaptation of the Nathaniel Hawthorne novel, and The Invisible Man Returns, the first sequel to James Whale's adaptation of H. G. Wells' novel. We talk non-naturalistic acting, the genius of Vincent Price, and the progressive moment of 1940, when anti-fascism gives courage to Hollywood's leftists.    Time Codes: 0h...

There's Sometimes a BuggyHollywood Studios Year-by-Year – Paramount – 1940: THE GREAT MCGINTY & THE WAY OF ALL FLESH + Fear and Moviegoing in TorontoFor this 1940 Paramount episode, an Akim Tamiroff (and Muriel Angelus) double feature in which we unlock the secrets of Preston Sturges' inspiration. First, we look at The Way of All Flesh (directed by Louis King), a little-known proto-noir Christmas movie that seems to have taken its inspiration from Nathaniel Hawthorne, as filtered through the sensibilities of top screenwriters Lenore Coffee and Jules Furthman. Then we move on to the first movie directed by dynamo screenwriter-turned-sui generis-director Preston Sturges, The Great McGinty, which directly references the plot of The Way of All Flesh in its prologue. We make our case for th...
