316 - Liberty Heights

After Diner earned an Oscar nomination for its screenplay and the hearts of dads everywhere, writer/director Barry Levinson's star quickly rose in Hollywood, culminating in Rain Man sweeping the Oscars. In the 1990s, Levinson had his share of hits and misses, but ended the decade with the final entry of his Baltimore films, Liberty Heights. The film tackles antisemitism and racism in the midcentury from a boomer lens with a young cast led by Ben Foster and Adrien Brody, but even strong reviews failed to draw an audience or the attention of awards voters.

This episode, we talk about Levinson's filmography and the film atmosphere that led to this film being quickly forgotten. We also talk about Foster's recent output overlooked by Oscar, Joe Mantegna's career before being lost to the CBS soup, and Brody being mostly cut out of The Thin Red Line.

Topics also include Forget Paris, Bebe Neuwirth cast as a mom shortly after the Chicago revival, and retro movie chain pre-shows.

God, I miss when this show was on and good. Season one was top tier.

Rewatching Season 3 ep 7 of Ghost Whisperer is me marveling at how John Gray had such an opportunity to bump up Orlando Jones' guest character to recurring/main status and just did not do that. There's something so interesting about the dynamic between Jone's character, a fraudulent celebrity psychic who's got a talent in profiling people and showmanship to boot, and Melinda Gordon, an actual psychic who doesn't make a living out of it and just wants to live a relatively ordinary life with her husband. And I think Orlando Jones and Jennifer Love Hewitt have a really good back-and-forth/competitive chemistry between them that would have been so good.

my favorite cast member

Orlando Jones. Specifically from the first two seasons of Sleepy Hollow. While I will never, ever forgive that show for what they did, he is the reason I'm on Twitter. He had no idea what shipping was until Ichabbie (in fact, I think he said he thought it was an insult at first, LOL), but once he understood, he jumped into fandom culture with BOTH feet! He climbed aboard the S.S. Ichabbie and took the helm. I didn't even really ship it at first, but his enthusiasm was so much fun! He was Dante Basco levels of shipper trash, and I will forever and ever love him for it. Here's to Captain Trollando!

Noumenon, Final Fantasy XIV:

This multi storied library is FFXIV equivalent of the Library of Alexandria. Organised by mini robots called mammets, largest repository of written works in all of Hydaelyn and has its own restricted section that would make many people's toes curl from what lay inside.

Fifth Avenue Public Information Unit, The Time Machine (2002):

Even after the end of the world, people will still want to learn. Not everything that's lost is gone forever.

Cyber Museum, MythQuest:

I don't know if anyone has seen this show, but this was my childhood. It's important to me. 🥺
