    Reza Rifts

    Chris Sarandon on The Princess Bride, Fright Night & Surviving Hollywood Oscar-nominated actor Chris Sarandon joins Keith Reza for a hilarious, wide-ranging conversation about his legendary Hollywood career including the wild story of how a bad New York Knicks draft pick accidentally landed him the role of Prince Humperdinck in The Princess Bride. From Dog Day Afternoon with Al Pacino to Fright Night, Child's Play, and the voice of Jack Skellington, Chris opens up about auditioning, rejection, "mortgage movies," the Comic-Con explosion, and his lifelong love of cooking.

  • Dog Day Afternoon's Chris Sarandon Performs "Sheep May Safely Graze" by Jess Row
  • Bad Elizabeth - Elizabeth Bigley, Elizabeth Debbie Eden with Chris Sarandon
    Bad Elizabeth

    This episode is a little different, we have a theme going on here - Bank Robberies. We will feature not one, but two Elizabeths from different historical periods, with bank robberies in common. Part One is about a Gilded Age con woman named Elizabeth Bigley, but she used many different names and personas in order to accomplish some pretty impressive scams. Many scammers take money from regular folk, but Bigley set her sights on tougher targets like Lawyers and Bank Presidents. Bigley's biggest scam was pretending she was the illegitimate daughter of Steel magnate and extremely rich guy, Andrew Carnegie. If you hate banks and extremely rich people, you will love Elizabeth Bigley, a/k/a Cassie Chadwick, a/k/a Madame Lydia DeVere, a/k/a Madame Marie LaRose. Part Two of this episode involves a bank robbery and an Elizabeth, but she didn't commit the crime, she inspired it. In 1973, John Wojtowicz, a Viet Nam veteran, attempted to rob a Chase bank in Gravesend, Brooklyn. The robbery went completely off the rails, and turned into a hostage stand-off that lasted hours and became a mass media event. The reason Wojtowicz robbed the bank - he needed the money to pay for his lover's gender reassignment surgery. His lover, Ernest Aron, later became Elizabeth Debbie Eden. If this story sounds familiar, that's because it was later turned into the blockbuster film "Dog Day Afternoon" starring Al Pacino, John Cazale, and Chris Sarandon. Sarandon - who was nominated for an Oscar for his performance as Al Pacino's love interest - joins Kathy & Gideon as our special guest. Sarandon tells us what advice director Sidney Lumet gave to him that helped portray this unprecedented - at the time - character for a mainstream film. We also talk to Sarandon about some of his other amazing roles and film experiences, including working with the late Rob Reiner making "The Princess Bride." Sarandon has played so many great roles including the lead of the beloved vampire film "Fright Night," and voicing the character of Jack Skellington for the Tim Burton holiday classic, "The Nightmare Before Christmas." ---------------------------------------- Jett Road Studios - Website - YouTube - Instagram - Substack Bad Elizabeth - Instagram - YouTube - Substack ---------------------------------------- SOURCES: The Imposter Heiress: Cassie Chadwick, the Greatest Grifter of the Gilded Age by Annie Reed https://a.co/d/0hzudhMF The High Priestess of Fraudulent Finance by Abbot Kahler https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/the-high-priestess-of-fraudulent-finance-45/ Dog Day Afternoon https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B000GOXGO2/ref=atv_dp_share_cu_r The Dog (documentary) https://youtu.be/npe6yTYmTiM?si=nSD4vfIdhxQQd9jA The Princess Bride https://youtu.be/JtVRCmWm2lA?si=kdEwlvha6acPqZ5d Fright Night https://youtu.be/JtVRCmWm2lA?si=kdEwlvha6acPqZ5d Nightmare Before Christmas https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107688/ Jump cut - Real Dog Day hero tells his story https://www.ejumpcut.org/archive/onlinessays/JC15folder/RealDogDay.html The Center - Liz Eden Papers https://archives.gaycenter.org/repositories/2/resources/18

  • EP#263: The Nightmare Before Fright Night - An Interview with Chris Sarandon
    Monsters, Madness and Magic

    Join Justin as he chats with prolific actor Chris Sarandon about embracing varied roles, growing up in a Greek household, Broadway, Jerry Dandrige, Andre the Giant, and more! Chris Sarandon bio: "The handsome, weird and worldly-looking Chris Sarandon has shown his versatility in everything from vampires to Jesus Christ in hypnotic performances that have been controversial but irresistible. He was born Christopher Sarandon, Jr. and raised in Beckley, West Virginia of Greek heritage on both sides (family surname originally Sarondonethes). His mother Cliffie (Cardullias) and father Christopher Sarandon, Sr. were restaurateurs. As a teen, Chris appeared locally on the musical stage and played drums and sang back-up with a local band called The Teen Tones. His band toured following high school and backed up such music legends as Bobby Darin , Gene Vincent and Danny and the Juniors. Chris later attended West Virginia University majoring in speech, but appearing in such musical productions as "The Music Man" as Harold Hill. He went on to attend the Catholic University of America in Washington, DC, where he received his master's degree in theater and met first wife Susan Sarandon . They married in 1967. Touring with improv companies and in regional theater productions, he made his professional debut in "The Rose Tattoo" in 1965 and later joined the Long Wharf Theatre Company for a season. The Sarandons moved to New York in 1968, wherein the dark and handsome charmer immediately nabbed the role of Dr. Tom Halverson on the daytime soap Guiding Light , a part that would last two years. Throughout the 1970s he would be rewarded with rich theater acting roles. On Broadway he appeared in "The Rothchilds" and replaced Raul Julia in "Two Gentlemen from Verona" while appearing elsewhere in various Shakespeare and Shaw festivals both here and in Canada. Chris made a phenomenally successful film debut in a huge, career-risking part as bank robber's Al Pacino 's tormented, gender-confused lover in Dog Day Afternoon , earning the New York Film Critics award and Oscar and Golden Globe nominations for his supporting turn. He took other sordid roles as well, this time in co-leads, such as opposite Margaux Hemingway in the poorly received exploitative thriller Lipstick and as a demon in the shocker The Sentinel . To avoid being typed as creepy characters, Chris furthered his range of roles in years to come, including the title role in The Day Christ Died , a critically heralded TV-movie. He then received high marks also for his mesmerizing interpretation of two completely different characters with unique subtlety, intelligence, charisma and profoundness as both Sydney Carton and Charles Darnay in <a class="a-size- a-align- a-link- ttip"

    The Creative Blood Podcast

    If you’re a movie lover, creative thinker, aspiring actor or even perhaps considering how you make it out the other side of this festive break, this guy has you covered. He is Academy Award nominated actor Chris Sarandon, and seeing as the holidays are upon us, we should make the connection that you’ll probably know him as the speaking voice of loveable Jack Skellington in Tim Burton’s, The Nightmare Before Christmas. Eureka! In this episode, Chris shares refreshingly candid anecdotes from a lifetime in entertainment and how his professional and personal growth have always gone hand in hand. We’re talking empathy, collaboration, the art of “the process” and what happens when a notoriously tricky Director leaves you with only one option… These days, Chris prefers to focus on his legacy as a human as opposed to his IMDB credentials – however, with everyone from Hollywood royalty such as Al Pacino and Goldie Hawn, through to cult and animation classics in the mix, we’ll happily take that baton and shout from the rooftops for him! Ladies and gentleman, please press play for the incomparable, Mr Chris Sarandon.
