1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,759 Speaker 1: I've been reminiscing with my guests who have been sitting 2 00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 1: in the studio while the news has been on about 3 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:09,840 Speaker 1: their movie called a Slice of Life. Matthew Sala and 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: Rose Tucker. Welcome to you both. 5 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:12,720 Speaker 2: Thanks for having us. 6 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 3: Great to be home in Adelaide. 7 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: You are Adelaide people, aren't you living in New York now? 8 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 4: Adelaide born and bred, moved to New York about eight 9 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 4: years ago. But get back any chance we can. 10 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: Absolutely fantastic. And in America, you have made a film 11 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 1: called Slice of Life the American Dream in former pizza huts. 12 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: This is about repurposed pizza huts. 13 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 5: Who would have thought absolutely well across America there are 14 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 5: hundreds of them. So these buildings all look the same. 15 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 5: They're all the same floor pans, same same windows. But 16 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 5: they've been turned into everything from church, cannabis, dispensary, karaoke bar, 17 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 5: anything you can think of. 18 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: It's amazing, isn't it. Whatever happened to Pizza Hut? Because 19 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: it seems to me as soon as Domino's arrived in Australia, 20 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: Pizza Hut said, well that's it, We're finished. We're going 21 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: see I think one of the. 22 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 4: Things that's interesting is is those classic dying I think 23 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 4: have sort of fallen out of favor. But you know, 24 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 4: it's much cheaper to run a little takeout inky spot, 25 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 4: and so I think that's sort of accounted for a 26 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 4: lot of it. 27 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 3: Oh, definitely. 28 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 5: There's actually more pizza huts today than at any point 29 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 5: in the histreet, but they are nearly all takeaway back and. 30 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 4: I think they came in in the late sixties, early 31 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 4: seventies when there's probably not much competition. 32 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, pizza pizza. 33 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 4: Was a bit of a new idea back then, but 34 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 4: then since then I think other people have cotton onto 35 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 4: it and a little more competition. 36 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:24,199 Speaker 2: Maybe. 37 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: We used to go as a family to the one 38 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 1: on Port Road that's now being demolished for the South 39 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: Road Motorway part that's been built through there on the 40 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: corner report in South Road at heind Marsh for I 41 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: don't know, for years when it opened, we'd go at 42 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,839 Speaker 1: least once a month, and through the progression of salad 43 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: bars and everything that, you know, pan pizza and everything 44 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: that came along. And then I got a job in 45 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,479 Speaker 1: one in the Heinley Street one in the early nineteen 46 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: eighties through to the mid to late nineteen eighties when 47 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: I became too old to work there because of being 48 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: twenty one. They didn't want to pay adult wages, so 49 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: the casual casual job went out the window. But it 50 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: was good fun. So pizzaard I can relate to pizza Hut. 51 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: What's your interests Why pizza huts? 52 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 5: Well, we grew up going to them where children, you know, 53 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 5: we grew up in the eighties and nineties, and that 54 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 5: was a treat, was pizza Hut. You know that all 55 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 5: you can eat buffet lunch deal was amazing, the. 56 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: Pizza peach gingerbread man. 57 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I love the. 58 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 5: Soft serve machine. I can hypnotized by that thing. But 59 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 5: then when we went to America, we realized, like, there's 60 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 5: so many of these buildings still there and it's just 61 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 5: fascinating to see what they are today. So, you know, 62 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 5: pizza hut was a massive part of the community. If 63 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 5: your town got a pizza Hut, it was a really, 64 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 5: really big deal. So they were these community hubs. They 65 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 5: bring people together. It's where you come and gather, and 66 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 5: we're interested in the current day versions of these buildings 67 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 5: are performing a similar function in their community. 68 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: All right, So there's still places people go with a 69 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: specific interest, presumably because they're not all food correct. 70 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 3: In fact, a lot of them are not food. 71 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 5: So you know, one of them is a church in 72 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 5: Florida that caters to the LGBTQ community. We've got a 73 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 5: cannabis dispensary in rural Colorado, so you know, yet very 74 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 5: very very different purposes one. 75 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 4: Terms of rest, I mean, there's everything from we visit 76 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 4: a Mexican restaurant. There's one that's a really high end 77 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 4: seafood restaurant. And it's funny because some of the very 78 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 4: high end customers that are there also used to work 79 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 4: in that right, pizza when they were younger. So yeah, 80 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 4: there's lots of these places. These buildings are sort of 81 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 4: you might be a bit dismissive of them at first, 82 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 4: but they're very critical part of the landscape in America. 83 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 4: They've been around for fifty or sixty years. They sort 84 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 4: of still have a few more stories to tell. 85 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 1: They were unique around the world and when they were 86 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: identical around the world. 87 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, we jump into it in the film a bit, 88 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 4: but basically when the you know, Pizza Hut was founded 89 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:33,959 Speaker 4: by two brothers out of wich Gitar, you know, like 90 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 4: knew nothing about pizza, weren't Italian. 91 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 2: So I started up. 92 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 4: And then one day they got their their friend Richard 93 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 4: to They said, well, we need to have an identity building, 94 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 4: not this hodgepodge of different buildings every time. We need 95 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 4: this one iconic building. And so you got their friend 96 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 4: to design it. And the friend wanted, you know, twenty 97 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 4: thousand dollars for the design. Right, we don't have that 98 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 4: kind of money, so we'll give you one hundred dollars 99 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 4: a building insteady about twenty five thousand buildings around, pretty 100 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 4: good off the I believe. 101 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 3: I believe that his family might still be getting something. 102 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 2: Really maybe adjusted for inflation. 103 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: Now, really, how about that? So the triangular windows, the 104 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: kind of slady roof, yeah, the what color with the 105 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: bricks that browned. 106 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 2: Brown, and then with the models. 107 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 4: Something just sort of you know, you could you could 108 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 4: see them from the moon or you know what I. 109 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 3: Mean, pointed out. 110 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 5: We didn't realize it at first, but of course the 111 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 5: windows of pizza slice shape. 112 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: All right, I've never thought that, but of course that 113 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: makes sense. 114 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 4: And you know this was back in the day before 115 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 4: you could get on your phone and you know, look 116 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 4: up Google reviews. 117 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: So you. 118 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 4: So, you know, people businesses needed to have really appealing, 119 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 4: visually appealing buildings to bring you in off the highway 120 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 4: as you're traveling down.

So they've taken this around the world. Do we 128 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: know how many were built? 129 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 5: I don't have an exact number, but I do do 130 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 5: you know that there are thousands of them that have 131 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 5: turned into other things now, so there's still thousands of 132 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 5: them standing. 133 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: Would there be ten thousand around the world more? 134 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 4: I reckon there'd be maybe ten thousand total, and then 135 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 4: there's at least like the really traditional old type at 136 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 4: least a thousands still something or something else. It's been 137 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 4: an interesting process researching it. We sort of I think 138 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 4: with this film. The first thing we did was by 139 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 4: a big map of America and started putting stars where 140 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 4: we were. You know, you'd find someone would say, oh, 141 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 4: there's this place that I think might be this now, 142 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 4: and you'd sort of invest a lot of investigating, which 143 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 4: is kind of fun. 144 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: I love the guy in your primo.

It's very I 181 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 5: don't know, but it was also featured in the TV 182 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 5: show Prisoner as a pizza. 183 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 4: This is the kind of trivia you find when you're 184 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 4: when you're researching the film. 185 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: It's amazing. So they've all been repurposed in America or 186 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: the one still standing, and you capture them in the 187 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: film quite a different and it must have taken you 188 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: back because Adelaide people going to pizza huts. 189 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 2: So it was this fascinating thing. 190 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 4: You know, we wanted to sort of where the genesis 191 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 4: of the film was is We wanted to do this 192 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 4: big trip around America looking at all the diverse ways 193 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 4: people lived their lives, and it was really interesting that, like, 194 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 4: you step into these buildings and maybe it's a church 195 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 4: with beautiful stained glass windows, or maybe it's a barbecue restaurant, 196 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 4: or maybe it's a Mexican restaurant, but the blueprints are 197 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 4: exactly the same. These people are sort of making their 198 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 4: dreams in the in the. 199 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 3: In the same floorplan exact. 200 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 2: All around the country. So it was really fascinating. 201 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: Where kids have had their mouth under that soft served machine, 202 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: as I've personally witnessed, not mine, but seeing kids do that. 203 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 3: Oh my god. 204 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 5: I remember going into a trance. My dad had to 205 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 5: run over and turn them. 206 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 4: It just kept going, a child, never seeing unlimited ifore. 207 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: Just kept going. Okay, all right, I do remember the 208 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: Pizza Peak being on the roof as well. 209 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, Pizza Peat was an earlier symbol, and then 210 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 5: they phased him out because they were worried about offending 211 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 5: the Italian American community. 212 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 2: Oh really, yes, I think they phased out around the eighties. 213 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, well I reckon he was still on gingerbread 214 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: men here forever. 215 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 3: Possibly maybe it took longer to phase out. 216 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe I reckon. We had one on stilts at 217 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: Enfield actually, and there's a car park underneath and it 218 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 1: was built above it. 219 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,199 Speaker 3: Still think was an Australian. 220 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. 221 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 4: One thing we learned was that when they designed them, 222 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 4: it was meant to be one design, but I think 223 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 4: individual places would have to modify them. Right, Maybe the 224 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 4: plot of land wasn't quite the right way, There'd be 225 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 4: a hill or something, so you get slight variation. 226 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know if that building is still there. 227 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,319 Speaker 1: Actually it's next to the maccas on Main North Road 228 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: at Enfield, so in that kind of dip as you 229 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: go through there, so the building might still be there 230 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: as well as a former pizza hut. But I'm not sure. 231 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: When's a film out I understand here in the essay 232 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 1: in Wallace Cinemas correct. 233 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 5: So from November seven will be coming out in Wallace, 234 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 5: so it should be hitting their website shortly. 235 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, and so plenty of opportunities to see the 236 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 4: film screen. 237 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, on the big screen.
