"Band Of Brothers" remains one of the most influential TV series of all time, if only because it helped bring about the so-called golden age of prestige TV we currently find ourselves in. Coming from creators and executive producers Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg — who will soon be bringing their follow-up "Masters Of The Air" to Apple TV+ — the show brought movie-level production values to the small screen, resulting in a vividly rendered version of World War II that still stands as one of the most affecting on-screen depictions of war.
Based on Stephen Ambrose's non-fiction book of the same name, "Band Of Brothers" begins by focusing on E, otherwise known as "Easy", Company of the 101st Airborne Division as they train for World War II. Across 10 episodes, the group, one of the first paratrooper teams used by the US in war, makes their way through Normandy, Belgium, the Netherlands,...

In the U.S., many of us who subscribe to five or more streaming services have grown tired of internet packages that bundle cable TV services we don't want or need. As streaming becomes more prevalent, UK households face their own kind of inconvenience, though it's not exactly new for them. On top of subscriptions, each household must pay an annual TV license fee to access broadcast television, which is currently set at £159 (189 in today's Usd) or face criminal prosecution. The fee, which funds the BBC, has become so controversial that earlier this year, UK Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries called to freeze it at the present rate and abolish it by 2027.
Other instances of the TV license fee facing such intense public scrutiny have been with respect to the programming that Bcc produces. I mean, if we were taxed to fund the Marvel Cinematic Universe instead of voluntarily handing over all our money to Disney,...

"Band of Brothers" was one of the first shows to bridge the gap between television and film. It took the baton from Steven Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan" and improved on it, at least regarding character and story. There is nothing in "Band of Brothers" that is quite so arrestingly savage as Spielberg's genre-changing Omaha Beach sequence. However, HBO's 10-part miniseries is still a thunderous account of World War II, replete with many sad and brutal moments.
Based on Stephen Ambrose's non-fiction book of the same name, "Band of Brothers" follows "Easy" Company of the 101st Airborne Division through Normandy, Belgium, the Netherlands, and the German interior. Human interest is somewhat diluted by the sheer number of characters involved, but there are focalizers in the ranks, namely Maj. Richard Winters (Damian Lewis) and Capt. Lewis Nixon (Ron Livingston). These men and their peers are quickly battle-hardened, facing the enemy in fields,...

Louise Fletcher, who won the best actress Oscar for her indelible performance as Nurse Ratched in Milos Forman’s “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” died Friday at her home in France, according to a rep. She was 88.
The classic film, based on Ken Kesey’s novel and exploring the repressive tendency of authority through the story of the patients and staff of a psych ward, won five Oscars in 1976, including best picture and best actor for Jack Nicholson.
“One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” was the first film in more than four decades to sweep the major categories of best picture, director, actor, actress and screenplay. It was nominated for an additional four Oscars and was also a substantial box office hit.
In the American Film Institute TV special “AFI’s 100 Years… 100 Heroes & Villains,” Fletcher’s Nurse Ratched was named the fifth-greatest villain in film history — and second-greatest villainess,...

Review Robert Keeling 28 Feb 2014 - 06:15
Rob's daily Band Of Brothers look-back reaches the half-way point with Tom Hanks-directed episode, Crossroads...
Read the previous part in this series, here.
Crossroads is another episode with Dick Winters as the focal point and it starts off with the real men of Easy telling us just what a great leader and model soldier he was. They are all quick to point out that he was never shy about leading from the front and when he was Easy’s commander, he was always the first man into battle.
The episode itself plays out partly in flashback as Winters, now in effective Battalion command, sets about writing up his numerous reports on the recent events that have effected Easy. It’s clear throughout this episode that while Dick is proud and content to be a high ranking officer, he misses the camaraderie and closeness...

Rob's 10-part Band Of Brothers look-back continues with episode 2, Day Of Days...
Read the first part of this series, here.
After Currahee provided an initial introduction to the men of Easy Company, Day Of Days was a jolting wake-up call. The veterans at the episode’s start remind us of just how many men they lost on that first jump. Judging by the opening few minutes of confusion and carnage, you begin to wonder why it wasn’t so many more.
This episode revolves around Operation Overlord which took place on the 6th of June 1944. This was the military codename for the Battle of Normandy which famously included the vast D-Day beach landings. Easy’s job, along with that of many other paratrooper companies, was to land behind enemy lines and secure the causeway leading off the beach.

From all-American WWII war hero to domestic terrorist to hero U.S. astronaut/savior of the human race? Hey, if anyone can do it, it’s Major Dick Winters. Or Sergeant Nicolas Brody. Turns out, it’s the same guy! “Band of Brothers” star Damian Lewis is set to take the lead in the new sci-fi thriller “Alone” for co-writers/directors Kirk Weddell and Chris Taylor. In the film, Lewis would play a U.S. astronaut who must “save the planet when he is the sole occupant of an orbiting space station.” Not sure how he’s going to do that, but all this space station/stranded-in-space movies that are cropping up all of a sudden is really interesting. Usually when the movie world starts copying each other, it’s because one movie has made a buttload of money, but that hasn’t really happened here. Weird. The film is...

The little I knew of The Sweeney centered around the fact that prior to being re-imagined for modern audiences, it existed as a popular television show in the UK, famous for tackling hard-hitting topics like police corruption and bribery. With the new film, starring Ray Winstone and Ben Drew, hopefully the show finds a new audience not only in the UK, but here in the Us. I've always been a sucker for a great, hard-boiled cop show, so, suffice to say, I was excited to finally see The Sweeney. Also note: even though white people love Homeland, and I am, by all accounts, white, I know nothing of Damian Lewis' work on that show. Homeland seems like a miniseries that has gone on for a couple bloated seasons, but whatever, he'll always be Dick Winters to me.

Twelve years ago, HBO put to screen a miniseries that was one part Television event, one part historical drama, which had the considerable backing of executive producers Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks and the hype of being something of a spiritual successor to their highly acclaimed war film Saving Private Ryan. Through ten one hour long episodes, essentially using TV as a medium to explore a vast and epic journey through the Second World War that would simply be impossible to map on the big screen, and with Stephen E Ambrose’s critically acclaimed non-fiction book as source material and a huge cast representing a collective of real world heroes, one of the most ambitious storytelling exercises the small screen has ever mounted was brought to life. The result was much fanfare, both critically and among the masses, a recurring trope that continues to this day, and the fledgling start...

Keane
Directed by Lodge Kerrigan
Written by Lodge Kerrigan
USA, 2004
Given his latest role in Showtime’s acclaimed Homeland has pushed Damian Lewis firmly back into the limelight of public awareness after some mixed success post-big break in Band of Brothers, it seems a good time to revisit his finest work to date. The Eton alumni, who Steven Spielberg once pledged to make the first “ginger star” in Hollywood, has been involved in some duds and some diamonds in the rough in the past, but his defining performance comes in Lodge Kerrigan’s barely seen 2004 flick Keane.
Only Kerrigan’s third film, the nightmarishly realistic and documentary-like Keane is perfectly in keeping with the uncomfortably authentic melancholy of previous efforts Clean Shaven and Claire Dolan, a firmly rooted character study of an irredeemably flawed and damaged protagonist whose existence challenges our every emotion. William Keane (Lewis) is a New Yorker...

The Olympics are almost finished, but archery’s greatest heroine is set to return this week when The Hunger Games arrives on home video. Jennifer Lawrence helped the first installment of the dystopian franchise split the box-office bulls eye, cashing in more than $400 million, and the blockbuster gets a special Saturday Blu-ray release. With midnight purchase parties, it could conceivably hurt the movies actually opening in theaters and make them… Expendable.

Ray Winstone as an uber badass cop who kicks ass and then maybe, maybe-not ask questions? In a movie that includes Major Dick Winters aka Damian Lewis? Oh hells yeah. Check out the first trailer for the UK cop movie “The Sweeney”, which is apparently a big-screen adaptation of a ’70s cop show that I’ve never heard of before. It looks intense, and Winstone has always been pretty damn badass, but he really takes it to a whole ‘nother level here. You don’t really get a sense for the film’s plot, but then again, I don’t suppose it matters. They’re selling Ray Winstone’s beast of a cop here, and they’re doing a damn good job of it. Sold!

British actor Damian Lewis almost missed out on his big break in Steven Spielberg's 2001 TV series Band Of Brothers by going on an all-night boozing session before meeting the director.
The Escapist star played Major Richard Winters in the World War II mini-series, which was co-produced by Tom Hanks, but Lewis admits he came close to blowing his big chance.
Lewis was so convinced he wouldn't land the role, he decided to party the night away in Los Angeles after his initial meeting with Hanks.
The actor was stunned when he was summoned to meet Spielberg the following morning, but he still managed to impress the filmmaker despite suffering a raging hangover.
He says, "I got asked to read the part with about 150 other actors. Incredibly within 48 hours I was on a plane to meet Tom Hanks in L.A. It went Ok but I still didn't think I had a chance so I went out on the town with a mate until five in the morning. Three hours later the phone rings and someone says Steven Spielberg would like to see me immediately.
"I still felt drunk so I had about four showers and poured coffee down my throat. But Steven couldn't have been more charming."...

In any case, check out your first look at Showtime’s latest thriller from the folks of “24″, “Homeland”. A taut psychological thriller about a volatile CIA officer (Emmy® winner Claire Danes) who becomes convinced that a recently rescued American Pow may be connected to an al Qaeda plot to be carried out on U.S. soil.
