Silver Linings Playback 223 – Caligula: The Ultimate Cut

Silver Linings Playback

Before diving into Nicolas Cage Month, Joel and Andy are taking a brief interlude to discuss one of the most infamous films ever made … Caligula.

The film, which boasted a script from acclaimed writer Gore Vidal and an impressive cast that included Malcolm McDowell, Helen Mirren, Peter O’Toole and John Gielgud. was shot in 1976, but wasn’t released in theaters until 1979.

Penthouse Magazine founder Bob Guccione edited the final cut; splicing in hardcore pornography. Most of those involved distanced themselves from the project.

Now, a newly remastered and edited “Ultimate Cut” hopes to restore the film to its original vision. Joel and Andy watch the new cut to find its silver linings.

Caligula (1979) 
Directed by: Tinto Brass 
Written by: Gore Vidal 
Starring: Malcolm McDowell, Teresa Ann Savoy, Helen Mirren, 
Peter O'Toole, John Gielgud

Hobo Radio Interviews – Kneecap & Writer/Director Rich Peppiatt

Hobo Radio: A Pop Culture Podcast

The members of the Belfast hip hop group Kneecap had every reason to be skeptical in 2019 when they were approached by someone claiming to be a filmmaker who wanted to tell their story.

Luckily, over many, many pints of Guinness, writer/director Rich Peppiatt was able to talk MoglaĂ­ Bap, Mo Chara and DJ ProvaĂ­ into telling their story in a kinetic, entertaining biopic that hits theaters tomorrow.

We chatted with the band and writer/director about the film, the fight to get Irish recognized as a language in the north of Ireland and the chaotic decision to release a new album and movie simultaneously.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • Interstitial – “Vishnu Meets Funk” and “Ancient Ritual” by Lucas PernĂ˝ & Miloslav Kollar
