16. Charles Bramesco on Nicolas Cage

<p>We're back! Film critic and friend Charles Bramesco joins Manuela to talk about the inspiring and mind-boggling talent of Nicolas Cage, who since the 80s has been bringing his maximalist acting style to shake up Hollywood. They discuss in particular Martin Scorsese's BRINGING OUT THE DEAD, John Woo's FACE/OFF and Panos Cosmatos's MANDY, and how each of these films reveals a different register for Cage to inhabit and reinvent.</p> <p>Follow Charles on twitter @intothecrevasse!

15. Charles Newland on Harvey Keitel

<p>Filmmaker Charles Newland talks with Manuela about Harvey Keitel, the unsung hero of '70s American cinema but also a still curious and fascinating actor today. From his start in Martin Scorsese's feature debut WHO'S THAT KNOCKING AT MY DOOR in 1967, Keitel has brought his sensitivity and his name to the first films of many directors that have since become legendary. Charles and Manuela discuss such debuts as Ridley Scott's fascinatingly strange film THE DUELLISTS, Paul Schrader's BLUE COLLAR, James Toback's disturbing FINGERS, as well as Quentin Tarantino's RESERVOIR DOGS, which Keitel also helped produce. With his ability to make his tormented characters somewhat likeable, Keitel established himself as a uniquely sensitive actor, working with boundary-pushing directors such as Jane Campion (THE PIANO) or Abel Ferrara (BAD LIEUTENANT).&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>PS: This conversation was recorded a couple of days before the passing of Yaphet Kotto, who appeared in BLUE COLLAR as Smokey as well as many other films. This episode is dedicated to his memory.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>Follow Charles on Instagram @charlesnewland</p> <p>Find Charles' film work on his website https://notownfilms.com/&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p>

14. Paul Ridd on Tom Cruise

<p>Acquisitions manager at Picturehouse Entertainment here in the UK, Paul Ridd is also Manuela's friend of many years and an avid DVD and Blu-Ray collector. In this episode, he chose to talk about the one and only Tom Cruise – one of the last true movie stars, and a unique one. From playing ambitious and illustrious young men in films like Scorsese's THE COLOR OF MONEY, Cruise went on to strategically undermine that image with more vulnerable roles as in BORN ON THE 4TH OF JULY, only to better build his image as an invincible, transcendent movie icon in action films like the MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE franchise. Paul describes what he enjoys so much in Cruise's intense acting style and in his career choices, and sings the praises of Cameron Crowe's eye-opening film VANILLA SKY.</p>
