Alfred Hitchcock August Family Plot

This Month I am planning to film in some of my Hitchcock gaps ,starting with his final film

In this 1976 film,psychic Blanche (Barbra Harris ) has been hired to find the long lost nephew of the wealthy Julia Rainbird (Cathleen Nesbit ),unaware said nephew is a kidnapper named Arthur Adamson(William Devane) who thinks Blanche and boyfriend George (Bruce Dern ) have stumbled upon his criminal activities

So I always heard this was a lesser Hitchcock film,only notable for being his final film ....I disagree this was a ton of fun,I really enjoyed this .I honestly think the reason why its not more loved is cause it is Hitchcocks final film,people expect an amazing finale to his career and might be disappointed it is a fairly light film,but that didnt bother me

The film is a dark comedy/thriller ,and I'll adimit as a comedy its not that funny but it is definately fun and as a thriller its really suspenceful.There is a rather entertaining car chase

The supporting cast ,especially Cathleen Nesbitt as an elderly rich woman and Ed Lauter as a murderous associate of Adamson are really good

What I like is the film centers on two couples ,one down on their luck basically con artists,and the other two sucessful kidnappers,and its interesting to see the diffrence between the two relationships

Karan Black is verygoood as the sort of reluctant villain ,very hesitant to get her hands dirty .I think she is good but wish there was more of her

William Devane is excellent as the main villain.A greedy jewler not afraid to kidnap or murder to get what he wants .I had recently seen Marathon Man with him in it,and with these two roles he impresses me as an actor

Barbra Harris in this as the psychic is fun,she does have great moments but in some scenes she can over do it a little

The best performance for me is Bruce Dern in a rare heroic role ,and this is my favorite Bruce Dern movie .I love the scenes of him investigating and I adore his and Harris's relationship

Overall Family Plot is a fun watch,not a masterpiece but a hoot ,reccomended

Barbara Harris and Bruce Dern in Family Plot (Alfred Hitchcock, 1976)

Cast: Karen Black, Bruce Dern, Barbara Harris, William Devane, Ed Lauter, Cathleen Nesbitt, Katherine Helmond, Warren J. Kemmerling, Edith Atwater, William Prince. Screenplay: Ernest Lehman, based on a novel by Victor Canning. Cinematography: Leonard J. South. Production design: Henry Bumstead. Film editing: J. Terry Williams. Music: John Williams. 

Barbara Harris, as the "spiritualist" Blanche Tyler, is the best thing about Alfred Hitchcock's last movie. According to Stephen Whitty's  The Alfred Hitchcock Encyclopedia, Hitchcock wanted Harris for the role, but he met resistance from the studio, which wanted a bigger name, so he cast Karen Black in the slightly lesser role of Fran to please the higher-ups, who gave Black higher billing than Harris. Which brings up an old question: Why did Harris never become a major star? She made an impressive movie debut in A Thousand Clowns (Fred Coe, 1965), was a standout in Robert Altman's Nashville (1975), and received an Oscar nomination for Who Is Harry Kellerman and Why Is He Saying Those Terrible Things About Me? (Ulu Grosbard, 1971), but is pretty much forgotten today. She may just be a case of the right talent having been born at the wrong time: Harris had just turned 40 when she made Family Plot. If she had been born a decade later, she might have given Goldie Hawn or, even later, Meg Ryan competition for the romantic comedy roles they became famous for. Family Plot is feather-light lesser Hitchcock, though on the whole it's a return to form for the director after the rather grim Frenzy (1972) and the late misfires Topaz (1969) and Torn Curtain (1967). There are some touches of the master director to be seen in it. The film makes us think that its main story is that of Blanche and her boyfriend George Lumley (Bruce Dern) as they try to track down the missing heir to a fortune, but as Blanche and George are riding in his cab arguing, he suddenly slams on the brakes to avoid hitting a woman crossing the street. The camera takes a sharp left turn and follows the woman instead, taking us into a plot about jewel thieves. The setup is in Ernest Lehman's screenplay, but Hitchcock is classically artful in the way he keeps both plots dangling until we can see how they intersect. There's another glimpse of the master at work in the way he films George trying to meet up with a woman he's trying to question. The scene takes place in a cemetery, and Hitchcock films it with an overhead camera so that we can see the crossing paths among the graves as George maneuvers his way toward the woman. I doubt that Hitchcock ever played one, but the sequence reminds me of a video game maze. Harris, Black, and Dern are all good in their roles, and William Devane is a fine villain. (Though have there ever been toothier leading men than Dern and Devane?) John Williams adds a touch of Bernard Herrmann in some parts of his score, the only one he did for Hitchcock.

Shapiro Faces Scrutiny Over Sexual Harassment Complaint Against Aide

Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania, who is on the short list to be Kamala Harris’s running mate, is facing renewed criticism for his handling of a sexual harassment complaint against a longtime top aide. The state agreed to pay $295,000 last September to settle the complaint against Michael A. Vereb, then Mr. Shapiro’s head of legislative affairs and one of his closest advisers. An employee had accused Mr. Vereb of making repeated and graphic sexual overtures and then criticizing her job performance after she refused him. She resigned rather than continue to work for him, her only other option, she said in her written complaint. Mr. Vereb, 57, kept his post for six months after his accuser first alleged misconduct. He resigned only after local reporters obtained a copy of the employee’s complaint, weeks after the settlement had been secretly reached. The governor’s office praised Mr. Vereb for his “dedicated service” when he left. [...]

The administrative director told her that an investigation would be launched but no action would be taken until it was over, according to the complaint. That evening, the employee said, the director called her repeatedly to ask if she wanted to resign. She received a written confirmation of her resignation the next day, she said. An official with the governor’s office, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive information, said the employee was not offered a different job away from Mr. Vereb because she resigned immediately. Her formal complaint, filed in March 2023, was ultimately handled by the state Human Relations Commission, which enforces civil rights laws. [...]

The complaint was not the first time that Mr. Vereb had been accused of inappropriate behavior toward a woman. Cathleen Palm, the founder of a nonprofit child advocacy group, said in an interview that she complained in 2018 that Mr. Vereb, then a top aide to Mr. Shapiro in the attorney general’s office, verbally abused her for a half-hour on the phone after she failed to support a proposed change to child protective services laws. “You are nobody, and by the time Josh and I are through with you, you will be less than nobody,” she said he screamed at her. She said he also called her “a friend of pedophiles,” even after she protested she had been sexually abused as a child. “I was devastated,” she said. Ms. Palm said she complained about the encounter to the chief deputy attorney general. The deputy died unexpectedly a few weeks later, she said, and she never received a reply to her complaint. Mr. Shapiro’s spokesman said Mr. Shapiro was not notified of Ms. Palm’s complaint. “This alleged behavior would be completely inappropriate,” he said.

This is the kind of staff he picked as governor. The administrative director--in addition to the sexual harassment creep, who had to resign when the coverup didn't work--shows poor ethics as well.

If he's picked as VP nominee, then undoubtedly more skeletons are going to come out with him due to the national press digging around.

Former MAGA attorney Lin Wood is a witness for the state in Georgia’s election interference RICO case against the former president and 18 others. Wood, who retired from practicing law earlier this year to avoid disbarment, worked as a member of Trump’s legal team in the aftermath of the 2020 election and heavily promoted claims that the election had been rigged against the former president.

According to a Wednesday filing to the Fulton County Superior Court, which seeks a resolution to potential conflicts of interest between attorneys for Trump and several of his co-defendants, Wood is a witness for the prosecution.

“L. Lin Wood, Coreco Ja’Quan Perason, Vikki Townsend Consiglio, Gloria Kay Godwin, James Kenneth Carroll, and Carolyn Hall Fisher, are witnesses for the State in the present case. Sidney Katherine Powell and Cathleen Alston Latham are Defendants in the present case,” the filing reads.

Harry W. MacDougald, who is representing Jeff Clarke in the Georgia case “also previously represented and was co-counsel to L. Lin Wood in Wood v. Raffensperger.”

Prosecutors claim that “there is a significant risk that the Rules of Professional Conduct may be violated, which may compromise the rights of certain witnesses for the State of Georgia should those witnesses be cross-examined by their former attorneys.”

In a statement to Rolling Stone, Wood said that he had been informed he was “going to be subpoenaed as a witness,” but had no other information on the matter.

Hours later, Wood wrote on Telegram that there is “NO TRUTH” to accusations that he “flipped” on the former president. “I have no idea why I am being asked to testify at the trial. I have had no discussions with the DA’s office since I testified before the special grand jury several months ago,” he added.
