    The West Wing Weekly 4.06: “Game On” Guests: Bradley Whitford and Rob Lowe [Intro Music] HRISHI: You’re listening to The West Wing Weekly, where it is a very special and exciting day. JOSH: A Very Special Episode…of Blossom. HRISHI: I’m Hrishikesh Hirway. JOSH: And I’m Joshua Malina. HRISHI: You may know Joshua Malina from such things as this episode. JOSH [laughter]: Oh, man. Is there gonna be a lot of this? HRISHI: How did it feel to watch yourself on screen for the first time? JOSH: I’m almost embarrassed to admit I had butterflies in my stomach when I watched it. HRISHI: That’s great. JOSH: And it wasn’t nerves or anything, it’s literally like I was tying in organically to the excitement of that job and getting that job. I didn’t expect it at all. But yeah, that was like a very special time of my life, and as I started to watch it I just got, like, chills. HRISHI: You had a Proustian moment? JOSH: Yeah, exactly. HRISHI: You were transported. That’s great. In this episode, of course, we’re talking about “Game On.” It’s episode six from season four. JOSH: It was written by Aaron Sorkin and Paul Redford. It was directed by Alex Graves, and it first aired on October 30, 2002. HRISHI: This episode is a famous one because it features President Bartlet debating Governor Ritchie. There’s also some stuff about Qumar, there’s some stuff about Toby and Andy, but the real headline is that baby-faced Joshua Malina makes his first appearance as Will Bailey, who’s running the Horton Wilde campaign from a mattress store in Newport Beach.

  • The West Wing
    38/ Pere Antoni Pons The everydayness of power The West Wing If the effect is the same as what happens with me, after seeing any average-quality chapter of The West Wing (1999-2006) the reader-spectator will think he or she is witnessing an incontrovertible landmark in the latest phase of audiovisual narrative. After viewing one of the more dazzling, memorable episodes, he or she will not hesitate to believe that this is to behold one of the major, most perfect intellectual and artistic events of the early twenty-first century, comparable —not only in creative virtuosity but also in meaning, magnitude and scope— with Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel, Shakespeare’s tragedies, Balzac’s The Human Comedy, or the complete recordings of Bob Dylan. Over the top? Even with more rotund words, it would be no exaggeration. Nowadays, nobody can ignore the fact that a colossal explosion in quality has happened over the last decade in the universe of American TV series. The old idea according to which the hapless professionals —scriptwriters, actors and directors— the ones who lack the luck or talent to carve out a niche in Hollywood or to triumph in the world of cinema, have to work in television has now been so thoroughly debunked that it even seems to have been turned on its head. Thanks to titles like The Sopranos, Capo 35 Ample front (Capo 35 Broad forehead), Miquel Barceló (2009). Ceramic, 22,5 x 19 x 25 cm 39 40/41 II The everydayness of power: The West Wing Pere Antoni Pons Lost, and The Wire, no one doubts any more that TV series can be as well filmed, as well written and as well acted as any masterpiece of the big screen.

    Satyajit Ray: India Marks Centenary of Cinema Giant, but Legacy Has Multiple Interpretations By Naman Ramachandran Variety.com , May 1, 2021 10:28pm PT Ratanshree Nirman/Roadshowfilms/Everett Collection/Gaurang Films/Bhandarkar Entertainment/Overdose Films India is celebrating the birth centenary of one of her greatest sons, Satyajit Ray, in a variety of ways. Sunday (May 2, 2021), marks the centenary of Ray, the Indian master who won an honorary Oscar in 1992, shortly before his death, and remains the country’s best known filmmaker internationally. Ray debuted with “Pather Panchali” (1955) the first part of the magisterial Apu Trilogy, which won best human document at Cannes. The Trilogy includes “Aparajito” (1956) and “Apur Sansar” (1959). Berlin was a particularly happy venue for him and he won top awards at the festival numerous times, for “Pather Panchali,” “Aparajito,” “Mahanagar” (1963), “Charulata” (1964), “Nayak” (1966) and “Ashani Sanket” (1973) At Venice he won for “Aparajito” and “Seemabaddha” (1971), culminating in a career Golden Lion in 1982. He also won a British Institute Fellowship in 1983 to go with the London Film Festival’s Sutherland Trophy for “Apur Sansar.” In 1987, the government of France made Ray a Commander of the Legion of Honor. In India, Ray’s films won 36 times at India’s National Film Awards and he was also accorded the Dadasaheb Phalke Award and the Bharat Ratna, the country’s highest film and civilian awards respectively. The Indian government has newly instituted a Satyajit Ray Lifetime Achievement Award for Excellence in Cinema, and the country’s various film bodies are organizing year-long centenary celebrations, necessarily virtual-physical hybrids because of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

  • Episode 249 Transcript: Hrishikesh Hirway Part 2
    EPISODE 249 TRANSCRIPT: HRISHIKESH HIRWAY PART 2 Lin-Manuel Miranda 0:00 [INTRO] Hi, I'm stage and stages Lin Manuel Miranda and you're listening to The Hamilcast. Gillian Pensavalle 0:18 Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the Hamilcast. I'm Gillian and this is the second half of my conversation with Hrishikesh Hirway, you know from Song Exploder, The West Wing Weekly and a ton of other things. For real though he has the definition of nonstop. Last week in Episode 248 he told us all about his early connections to Lin and Tommy, how he created a song with Lin all about The West Wing... I'm sure you've heard it, his complicated feelings on musicals, and so much more. So definitely make sure you listen to that episode before listening to this one because if you don't, it'll be like trying to talk to Lin and Tommy without referencing The West Wing. It just.. it wont work. Oh, quick reminder that you can now get transcripts of new episodes as they're released, and the back catalogue episodes are being updated on an ongoing basis. All transcripts are at thehamilcast.com, as well as the show notes of the corresponding episode. If you're all caught up, I'll leave you to it. Here's Part Two with Hrishikesh Hirway. Gillian Pensavalle 1:13 I would love to really get into the details of that. Of just the the Wait For It episode specifically because Hrishikesh Hirway 1:19 Yeah Gillian Pensavalle 1:20 When Alex Lacamoire came over, he had three episodes and basically did what you did with Song Exploder with the Schuyler Sisters and just sort of anything like he came..
