Released in 1950 and starring the legendary Bette Davis, Anne Baxter, George Sanders, Celeste Holm, and Thelma Ritter, this Oscar-winning classic isn't just a masterclass in acting—it's a biting, witty, and surprisingly timeless take on fame, friendship, manipulation, and power.

We’ll explore the film’s iconic performances, the brilliance of Joseph L. Mankiewicz’s script, the unforgettable character arcs of Margo and Eve, and the film’s lasting impact on pop culture. From the razor-sharp dialogue to that haunting, cyclical ending—this episode covers it all. I even spotlight a few of my favourite scenes (with audio clips!) and break down how this film still resonates in today’s celebrity-obsessed world. 

Looking back, was it deserving of the Best Picture Oscar for 1950? Listen and find out what film critic Jack Ferdman thinks, and which film he chooses for his Rewatch Oscar of that year.

And then there are a few that just don't do that. LOL! The Academy Award-winning film for Best Picture of 2014, Birdman, doesn't do thta. The film is as open-ended as can be. However, the film's technical aspects, the acting, and direction, are all brilliant. This film is very unique ... and was praised by critics and movie goers everywhere. But all these years later, Does Birdman still hold up? In hindsight, should it still be regarded as the best of 2014?

]]> Films usually have a nice structure to it that makes us feel complete ... the movie has a beginning, a middle, and an ending that kind of wraps everything up neatly. And then there are a few that just don't do that. LOL! The Academy Award-winning film for Best Picture of 2014, Birdman, doesn't do thta. The film is as open-ended as can be. However, the film's technical aspects, the acting, and direction, are all brilliant. This film is very unique ... and was praised by critics and movie goers everywhere. But all these years later, Does Birdman still hold up? In hindsight, should it still be regarded as the best of 2014?

Listen to film critic Jack Ferdman's take on it as he analyzes everything about Birdman, as well as many other films from that year, and hear which film he gives his Rewatch Oscar of 2014.

]]> There have only been three films that have swept the "big five" Oscars.  And this one, the ONLY so-called horror film to win, is the last to win Best Picture, Director, Actor, Actress, and Screenplay.  The Silence of the Lambs scared us all when we first saw it in the theatres in 1991 ... and we keep coming back for more.  We love the story, we are blown away by the performances, and we love being terrified.  However, after all these years, do we still think it's the best film of 1991?  Download and listen to film critic Jack Ferdman's  take on this modern-day classic. Hear if he gives The Silence of the Lambs his REwatch Oscar of 1991.

In this episode, Jack talks about the Best Picture winner from 2015, Spotlight.  This movie is important both historically and cinematically, as it dives into the four-person team that headed Spotlight, an in-depth journalistic branch of the Boston Globe who did research uncovering the abuse of children by the Catholic Church in Boston.  It's a heavy topic that looks at it through this reviewer's eyes.  He also mentions other great films from 2015, and then decides what film, if not Spotlight, deserves the Rewatch Oscar for that year.

]]> Rewatching Oscar with Jack Ferdman

In this episode, Jack talks about the Best Picture winner from 2015, Spotlight.  This movie is important both historically and cinematically, as it dives into the four-person team that headed Spotlight, an in-depth journalistic branch of the Boston Globe who did research uncovering the abuse of children by the Catholic Church in Boston.  It's a heavy topic that looks at it through this reviewer's eyes.  He also mentions other great films from 2015, and then decides what film, if not Spotlight, deserves the Rewatch Oscar for that year.

Not every Best Picture stands the test of time. In this episode, Jack takes on 1956, and more specifically the film adaptation of the famous Jules Verne classic, Around the World in 80 Days. This film is one that is long, poorly scripted, and mostly a bore ... unlike the producer of the film, Michael Todd, who made this Academy Award winner despite all the odds stacked against him.  Jack explores the movie, Michael Todd, and many of the cameos in this wacky one of a kind movie.  Jack also talks about alot of the other great films from 1956 and shares his choice for the best ... the one he gives his Rewatch Oscar to.

In this episode, Jack goes in-depth about a very serious and sensitive topic... addiction, and more specifically alcoholism.  He delves deep into how important the film The Lost Weekend is (the Best Picture winner of 1945) and how  Billy Wilder's style of filmmaking handles this issue that plagued so many Americans after WWII.  It's an important film in cinema history as it was the first feature to treat this topic directly.  Was the great story, handled so brilliantly by Wilder, the incredible editing and score,  and of course the Oscar-winning performance of Ray Milland, enough to have Jack give it the Rewatch Oscar of 1945? It was a weak year for Hollywood movies ... but there were several brilliant films that he might give the award to.  Listen and find out.
