1
00:00:07,133 --> 00:00:10,453
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack Tame podcast

2
00:00:10,573 --> 00:00:11,693
Speaker 1: from News Talks at Me.

3
00:00:12,813 --> 00:00:14,213
Speaker 2: Time to catch up with our film with You.

4
00:00:14,333 --> 00:00:18,213
Speaker 3: Francesca Rudkin is here with her picks for this Easter weekend.

5
00:00:18,253 --> 00:00:21,373
Speaker 3: Good morning, Good morning. So there's been a lot of

6
00:00:21,453 --> 00:00:24,813
Speaker 3: hype about our Robert Pattinson and Zindaia starring in.

7
00:00:24,813 --> 00:00:26,573
Speaker 2: Your first pick for us this morning. We'd better have

8
00:00:26,613 --> 00:00:26,973
Speaker 2: a listen.

9
00:00:27,053 --> 00:00:31,813
Speaker 3: This is the drama, all right. So before we got married,

10
00:00:31,813 --> 00:00:33,293
Speaker 3: we did this thing, or we said the worst thing

11
00:00:33,293 --> 00:00:34,253
Speaker 3: we've ever done.

12
00:00:34,493 --> 00:00:36,973
Speaker 2: I'll tell mine if we all do it. Promise what

13
00:00:37,093 --> 00:00:37,853
Speaker 2: did you do?

14
00:00:38,293 --> 00:00:38,453
Speaker 1: This?

15
00:00:40,093 --> 00:00:42,693
Speaker 2: Beer bottles and porn left a ner of night?

16
00:00:43,093 --> 00:00:45,533
Speaker 3: Yeah, what's the worst thing I've ever done?

17
00:00:46,773 --> 00:00:49,573
Speaker 4: Okay, I are you serious?

18
00:00:51,333 --> 00:00:52,413
Speaker 2: Don dun't dan?

19
00:00:52,773 --> 00:00:56,493
Speaker 3: I mean that is a tantalizing little Traylor, is it not?

20
00:00:57,133 --> 00:01:00,013
Speaker 4: And I'm not gonna I'm not going to tell you anything.

21
00:01:00,173 --> 00:01:03,093
Speaker 2: I was going to say, don't you dare.

22
00:01:02,413 --> 00:01:06,733
Speaker 4: Is because actually you want to try and work through

23
00:01:06,773 --> 00:01:10,493
Speaker 4: it with the characters as they're trying to work through it.

24
00:01:10,933 --> 00:01:13,413
Speaker 4: That's sort of the fun of this film. Sindana and

25
00:01:13,773 --> 00:01:15,173
Speaker 4: Robert Pattinson are.

26
00:01:15,053 --> 00:01:16,053
Speaker 5: Really good together.

27
00:01:16,173 --> 00:01:19,413
Speaker 4: I kind of couldn't quite picture it, but they're really delightful.

28
00:01:19,453 --> 00:01:22,413
Speaker 4: They've got this very natural chemistry. This is the first

29
00:01:22,453 --> 00:01:25,053
Speaker 4: time they've worked together, but they're actually in three films

30
00:01:25,093 --> 00:01:28,253
Speaker 4: together this year. They're also in Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey

31
00:01:28,653 --> 00:01:30,853
Speaker 4: and also Dune Part three, which is out at the

32
00:01:30,933 --> 00:01:31,693
Speaker 4: end of the year.

33
00:01:32,373 --> 00:01:33,693
Speaker 5: So they're really really love it together.

34
00:01:33,813 --> 00:01:37,413
Speaker 4: Look, this film, it starts out as laugh out loud

35
00:01:37,493 --> 00:01:40,533
Speaker 4: funny and as it progresses it shifts to sort of

36
00:01:40,573 --> 00:01:44,933
Speaker 4: a more cringe worthy, uncomfortable funny. So they play these

37
00:01:44,933 --> 00:01:48,453
Speaker 4: two characters, Emma and Charlie, and it is the week

38
00:01:48,493 --> 00:01:52,293
Speaker 4: of their wedding. They're just finalizing the preparations, getting things sorted.

39
00:01:52,813 --> 00:01:56,173
Speaker 4: I really liked the pacing of this film. They kind of,

40
00:01:56,853 --> 00:01:59,253
Speaker 4: you know, as they're writing speeches, we have little sort

41
00:01:59,293 --> 00:02:01,653
Speaker 4: of flashbacks to how they met, so we get to

42
00:02:01,653 --> 00:02:03,813
Speaker 4: know them. But it's sharp and it's snappy, and we

43
00:02:03,893 --> 00:02:06,453
Speaker 4: kind of get to the point, which is this evening

44
00:02:06,493 --> 00:02:09,853
Speaker 4: they have with their some friends of theirs, this married

45
00:02:09,853 --> 00:02:11,693
Speaker 4: couple where they all talk about the worst thing that

46
00:02:11,733 --> 00:02:14,093
Speaker 4: they've done. And a couple of them have done some

47
00:02:14,173 --> 00:02:17,733
Speaker 4: quite bad things, but nothing compared to what Zendea's character,

48
00:02:17,773 --> 00:02:21,413
Speaker 4: Emma kind of accidentally drops on the table she'd had

49
00:02:21,413 --> 00:02:24,253
Speaker 4: a few wines, and she admits to this thing, and

50
00:02:24,293 --> 00:02:27,733
Speaker 4: it really just changes everything, and it's very hard to

51
00:02:29,853 --> 00:02:33,493
Speaker 4: everything from every comment she makes to every action she does,

52
00:02:33,533 --> 00:02:36,493
Speaker 4: you now see her in a completely new context. And

53
00:02:36,573 --> 00:02:40,853
Speaker 4: of course Robert Pattinson's Charlotte character, Charlie has to work

54
00:02:40,853 --> 00:02:44,093
Speaker 4: out with actually, you know, do I know this person?

55
00:02:44,133 --> 00:02:46,373
Speaker 4: Do I really want to marry this person? Do I

56
00:02:46,413 --> 00:02:49,133
Speaker 4: want to spend the rest of my life with this person? Also,

57
00:02:49,533 --> 00:02:52,413
Speaker 4: so it really looks at relationships. It looks at how much,

58
00:02:52,493 --> 00:02:55,333
Speaker 4: you know, is love enough to kind of overcome an

59
00:02:55,333 --> 00:02:58,053
Speaker 4: obstacle and to forgive someone. And it also looks at

60
00:02:58,093 --> 00:03:01,093
Speaker 4: empathy and how much empathy we can have for someone

61
00:03:01,173 --> 00:03:04,573
Speaker 4: who might have made a mistake or almost made a mistake,

62
00:03:04,693 --> 00:03:05,893
Speaker 4: and how we can kind of.

63
00:03:05,893 --> 00:03:06,493
Speaker 5: See through it.

64
00:03:06,293 --> 00:03:09,413
Speaker 4: It's really look it's snappy, it's really clever, as I say,

65
00:03:10,013 --> 00:03:10,933
Speaker 4: life out loud, funny.

66
00:03:10,933 --> 00:03:12,693
Speaker 5: At the beginning, I was really enjoying it.

67
00:03:12,733 --> 00:03:16,013
Speaker 4: Then it does get quite uncomfortable as the intensity builds

68
00:03:16,013 --> 00:03:17,533
Speaker 4: and we heap get to the wedding and it all

69
00:03:17,613 --> 00:03:19,933
Speaker 4: kind of falls back. I spend a bit of time

70
00:03:20,013 --> 00:03:23,453
Speaker 4: wondering how else they might have resolved this film because

71
00:03:23,493 --> 00:03:26,413
Speaker 4: the question posed and it is quite hard to resolve,

72
00:03:26,973 --> 00:03:29,053
Speaker 4: and I think they've left it. I think they've done

73
00:03:29,093 --> 00:03:31,253
Speaker 4: a nice job of it and leaving it maybe in

74
00:03:31,253 --> 00:03:32,893
Speaker 4: a way that you can.

75
00:03:32,813 --> 00:03:35,733
Speaker 5: Use your own. It's a little bit ambiguous.

76
00:03:35,813 --> 00:03:38,093
Speaker 4: You could maybe decide for yourself how you would like

77
00:03:38,173 --> 00:03:39,333
Speaker 4: things to kind of pan out.

78
00:03:39,333 --> 00:03:41,613
Speaker 5: But no, it's it's really great. It's a bit different.

79
00:03:41,653 --> 00:03:42,853
Speaker 5: I mean, it's a it's.

80
00:03:42,733 --> 00:03:45,133
Speaker 4: A rom com and it's a drama d and it's

81
00:03:45,253 --> 00:03:49,053
Speaker 4: a dark black comedy. It's a psychological sort of thriller

82
00:03:49,093 --> 00:03:51,373
Speaker 4: at the same time. It's a little bit of everything. No,

83
00:03:51,493 --> 00:03:52,653
Speaker 4: really clever thought it was great.

84
00:03:52,693 --> 00:03:54,733
Speaker 2: Okay, it sounds really good. I was gonna say it

85
00:03:54,733 --> 00:03:56,573
Speaker 2: does sound dark without having.

86
00:03:58,253 --> 00:04:00,053
Speaker 3: It feels like there's a dark secret here.

87
00:04:00,493 --> 00:04:04,093
Speaker 4: Absolutely, And there is some controversy around it because the

88
00:04:04,293 --> 00:04:07,693
Speaker 4: secret is something which people don't really feel should be

89
00:04:07,733 --> 00:04:10,813
Speaker 4: a gimmick in a romantic comedy, but they can out

90
00:04:10,813 --> 00:04:14,213
Speaker 4: with in a manner that we all understand the seriousness

91
00:04:14,253 --> 00:04:14,613
Speaker 4: of it.

92
00:04:14,813 --> 00:04:16,893
Speaker 5: So there is a bit of controversy around it.

93
00:04:18,213 --> 00:04:20,013
Speaker 3: Even the way you've talked about it just makes me

94
00:04:20,013 --> 00:04:23,453
Speaker 3: so intrigued. Now I know it's everything I can do

95
00:04:23,533 --> 00:04:24,453
Speaker 3: not to go and google it.

96
00:04:24,493 --> 00:04:28,253
Speaker 2: I'm not going to, but you know what I mean, like, no, no,

97
00:04:28,293 --> 00:04:30,013
Speaker 2: I won't. I won't want anything.

98
00:04:30,093 --> 00:04:32,573
Speaker 5: And it's my advice to listens as well. Do not

99
00:04:32,613 --> 00:04:36,453
Speaker 5: read anything more about this just you know it's great. Yeah,

100
00:04:36,813 --> 00:04:37,533
Speaker 5: don't check it out.

101
00:04:37,613 --> 00:04:38,533
Speaker 2: Very good. Okay, cool.

102
00:04:38,613 --> 00:04:41,213
Speaker 3: So that is the drama that is showing in cinemas

103
00:04:41,213 --> 00:04:44,533
Speaker 3: at the moment, starring Robert Pattinson and Zendaya. Next up,

104
00:04:44,613 --> 00:04:47,173
Speaker 3: let's have a listen to a film streaming on Disney Plus.

105
00:04:47,213 --> 00:04:49,933
Speaker 3: This is Mike Nick Nick and Alice.

106
00:04:52,133 --> 00:04:52,453
Speaker 4: Happening.

107
00:04:52,733 --> 00:04:55,573
Speaker 3: I'm you, but I'm from the future. They came back,

108
00:04:55,653 --> 00:04:56,693
Speaker 3: but a time is ship.

109
00:04:58,213 --> 00:04:59,373
Speaker 1: And I understand obviously.

110
00:05:03,573 --> 00:05:05,453
Speaker 3: Okay, this is a little bit different.

111
00:05:07,133 --> 00:05:09,973
Speaker 4: This is a film that really shouldn't work on paper,

112
00:05:10,013 --> 00:05:12,533
Speaker 4: and look, it probably only just works on screen thanks

113
00:05:12,533 --> 00:05:15,333
Speaker 4: to the charisma of its stars. It's a gangster flick.

114
00:05:15,573 --> 00:05:17,453
Speaker 4: I think it's sort of set around the nineteen nineties,

115
00:05:17,973 --> 00:05:22,093
Speaker 4: but it's also it's also a sci fi film that

116
00:05:22,253 --> 00:05:25,533
Speaker 4: involves time travel, and it's a comedy, and it's an

117
00:05:25,533 --> 00:05:28,333
Speaker 4: action film, and it's it's a little bit nuts.

118
00:05:28,613 --> 00:05:31,453
Speaker 5: So we follow a couple of hitmen turns out.

119
00:05:31,733 --> 00:05:35,253
Speaker 4: One of them, Mike, played by James Marsden, is having

120
00:05:35,293 --> 00:05:38,333
Speaker 4: an affair with his partner. Next wife, Nick, is played

121
00:05:38,333 --> 00:05:41,613
Speaker 4: by Vince Vaughn. He's having an affair with his wife Alice,

122
00:05:41,813 --> 00:05:47,333
Speaker 4: played by Isaa Gonzales, now the Boys Boss, sort of

123
00:05:47,413 --> 00:05:50,013
Speaker 4: mafia like boss. He is celebrating the release of his

124
00:05:50,093 --> 00:05:52,573
Speaker 4: son from prison, and to celebrate, he's decided he is

125
00:05:52,613 --> 00:05:54,813
Speaker 4: going to take out the person who sent his son

126
00:05:55,013 --> 00:05:57,093
Speaker 4: to prison. And it turns out that Mike has been

127
00:05:57,173 --> 00:05:59,853
Speaker 4: set up and being held responsible for this, so that

128
00:05:59,893 --> 00:06:01,493
Speaker 4: there is a hip man on the way to take

129
00:06:01,573 --> 00:06:05,533
Speaker 4: out Mike. Neck, though, decides to step in and help out.

130
00:06:05,573 --> 00:06:08,693
Speaker 4: But not just one Nick. There are two Nicks. Hence

131
00:06:08,773 --> 00:06:12,933
Speaker 4: the time travel comes into play. It's bonkers, it's really

132
00:06:13,013 --> 00:06:15,813
Speaker 4: quite it's really quite nuts. So there's a lot of

133
00:06:15,893 --> 00:06:18,373
Speaker 4: Vince Vaughn in this film. There's two Vince Baughn's. He

134
00:06:18,413 --> 00:06:21,653
Speaker 4: plays two characters, and he is very much playing. He's

135
00:06:21,813 --> 00:06:24,133
Speaker 4: very much acting in the way that we always expect

136
00:06:24,213 --> 00:06:27,013
Speaker 4: him to. It's kind of, you know, I don't know

137
00:06:27,053 --> 00:06:28,933
Speaker 4: if you've sick got apple, but he's in a show

138
00:06:28,973 --> 00:06:31,853
Speaker 4: called Bad Monkey, and it's the most it's the best

139
00:06:31,853 --> 00:06:33,773
Speaker 4: performance I've seen from him in a long time. His

140
00:06:33,933 --> 00:06:36,413
Speaker 4: sort of his character, in his way of acting, really

141
00:06:36,413 --> 00:06:40,213
Speaker 4: fitted that show and that character, and he's brilliant this

142
00:06:40,333 --> 00:06:42,653
Speaker 4: it's just a little bit more typical Vince Vaughn having

143
00:06:42,733 --> 00:06:47,093
Speaker 4: fun in action comedy. But look along with James Marsden

144
00:06:47,173 --> 00:06:49,773
Speaker 4: and Isaac Gonzalez, so the three of them are really

145
00:06:49,813 --> 00:06:52,693
Speaker 4: fun together. So if you want something breezy and easy

146
00:06:52,733 --> 00:06:55,813
Speaker 4: to watch over Easter, and you've got Disney Plus once

147
00:06:55,853 --> 00:06:58,613
Speaker 4: again a little bit like the previous film I spoke about,

148
00:06:58,693 --> 00:07:02,013
Speaker 4: it's a real mix of genres. It's a romantic comedy,

149
00:07:02,013 --> 00:07:04,053
Speaker 4: a comedy against a film, a crime flick, and a

150
00:07:04,173 --> 00:07:07,173
Speaker 4: time travel film. So yeah, if you want something a

151
00:07:07,173 --> 00:07:08,493
Speaker 4: little that's a real.

152
00:07:08,373 --> 00:07:09,213
Speaker 2: Trend at the moment.

153
00:07:09,253 --> 00:07:11,493
Speaker 5: He yeah, yeah, and look if you can, if you

154
00:07:11,533 --> 00:07:12,053
Speaker 5: can do it.

155
00:07:11,973 --> 00:07:15,733
Speaker 3: Well yeah, right for sure. But the kind of mooley

156
00:07:15,813 --> 00:07:18,173
Speaker 3: mash of genres where you're like, oh, so it's both

157
00:07:18,573 --> 00:07:22,813
Speaker 3: like a you know, a horror and a seventeenth century

158
00:07:23,013 --> 00:07:28,413
Speaker 3: period drama and you know, like in a children's comedy,

159
00:07:28,573 --> 00:07:32,013
Speaker 3: like oh.

160
00:07:32,133 --> 00:07:34,013
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, it's quite good.

161
00:07:34,013 --> 00:07:37,293
Speaker 3: I like that, you know, I like the filmmakers don't

162
00:07:37,333 --> 00:07:40,813
Speaker 3: necessarily feel pigeonholed, you know, and maybe it's a maybe

163
00:07:40,813 --> 00:07:41,973
Speaker 3: there's another way to look at it, and you could

164
00:07:41,973 --> 00:07:43,893
Speaker 3: say they're trying to be everything to everyone at once,

165
00:07:43,973 --> 00:07:44,173
Speaker 3: you know.

166
00:07:44,253 --> 00:07:46,853
Speaker 2: But yeah, I like that sounds quite good. I like

167
00:07:46,893 --> 00:07:47,293
Speaker 2: the sound of it.

168
00:07:47,653 --> 00:07:51,173
Speaker 3: So that is Mike Nick, Nick and Alice. That's on Disney,

169
00:07:51,173 --> 00:07:53,693

172
00:07:59,973 --> 00:08:02,933
