At the 42° Torino Film Festival directed by Giulio Base, Matthew Broderick is among the actors receiving the famous festival prize, Stella della Mole. The actor is in Torino to also introduce to the audience one of the films of the Marlon Brando retrospective: "The Freshman" In the 1980’s film by Andrew Bergman, Broderick plays a naive young cinema student at the New York University who, accidentally, ends up “working” for Carmine Sabatini ( Brando) who is the spitting image of Vito Corleone from "The Godfather". After endless requests to play the part of the mafioso, Brando eventually gave in and agreed to take part in a comical parody of his performance in the iconic film by Francis Ford Coppola. Matthew Broderick talks about his experience on set with Brando and the things he learned from this acting legend. Speaking of great actors, Broderick follows the example of the first actor he played with on the big screen: Jason Robards. He taught the War Game actor to make all feel part of the team, that alla actors are on the same level and you can always learn from each other. “Movies and plays change all the time. I like to welcome young actors and I like to learn from them. it’s a two way thing” Broderick states. Among the first films Broderick acted in, there’s the unforgettable and 80’s fundamental movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". The actor tells us more about working on set with legendary director John Hughes.

Book Vs. Movie: Election The 1998 Novel Vs. the 1999 Film The Margos have had the Tom Perrotta novel Election on their list to cover since the podcast began in 2008, but for some reason--it was not made available until this summer. Who could forget Reese Witherspoon’s performance as Tracy Flick? Matthew Broderick's last line in the Alexander Payne movie? The story is about an ambitious woman who will win her high school presidential campaign no matter what made Witherspoon a star. Her character became an avatar for people who tried too hard and were overbearing. Tracy believes she will easily win the election, not counting one of her teachers (Mr. M.) has it in for her; one of her fellow students is doing it as a goof (nice, but not very bright Paul Warren) while his sister (Tammy) is doing it in retaliation against Paul’s girlfriend Lisa (who used to date Tammy.) The teacher who has sex with Tracy (while his wife is pregnant!) loses his job, which makes Mr. M. angry, and he feels he needs to rob her of an election win. Now that there is a new Perrotta novel, a sequel called Tracy Flick Can’t Win, is it time to have a new look at not only her character but also the plot in the first place? Who were the villains here? Why does Mr. M. hate her so much? The Margos have so much to unpack here! This episode is sponsored by Kensington Books and the novel Twice a Quinceaňera by Yamile Saied Méndez. “This book will set your dreams on fire” –praise for Yamile Saied Mendez by Reese Witherspoon for Furia by Yamile Saied Méndez.
