Hey Francesca, good morning. We 14 00:00:53,813 --> 00:00:56,413 Speaker 2: have two films to recommend this morning. So let's start 15 00:00:56,453 --> 00:00:58,173 Speaker 2: off with a little bit of a listen to It 16 00:00:58,493 --> 00:00:59,653 Speaker 2: ends with Us. 17 00:01:01,213 --> 00:01:03,453 Speaker 3: We all have an idea of what life can be. 18 00:01:06,653 --> 00:01:18,293 Speaker 3: That special connection you feel, that first kiss for fifteen seconds, 19 00:01:19,293 --> 00:01:24,013 Speaker 3: that's all it teakes to completely change everything. 20 00:01:25,413 --> 00:01:29,133 Speaker 2: Bye, Bam. It ends with us, Tell us about it, Franziska. 21 00:01:29,893 --> 00:01:32,573 Speaker 4: So this has been highly anticipated by fans of author 22 00:01:33,013 --> 00:01:36,893 Speaker 4: Colleen Hooper. I am not a co host and I 23 00:01:36,933 --> 00:01:38,733 Speaker 4: haven't read the book, so I'm going to talk about 24 00:01:38,813 --> 00:01:40,613 Speaker 4: this purely from a film point of view. Books and 25 00:01:40,693 --> 00:01:44,693 Speaker 4: I did leave the very very pack cinema. I did 26 00:01:44,733 --> 00:01:46,373 Speaker 4: hear a lot of people talking about you know, a 27 00:01:46,373 --> 00:01:48,453 Speaker 4: lot of fans saying that they were pleased with how 28 00:01:48,493 --> 00:01:50,893 Speaker 4: this has been adapted. This is the romantic drama. The 29 00:01:50,933 --> 00:01:53,733 Speaker 4: book was released in twenty sixteen. It was sort of 30 00:01:53,773 --> 00:01:57,373 Speaker 4: a social media breakthrough book. It was huge on TikTok 31 00:01:57,453 --> 00:02:00,893 Speaker 4: and book talk and things and Coline Hooper from One 32 00:02:00,933 --> 00:02:04,733 Speaker 4: Together Right. It's quite fun, character driven, easy, sort of 33 00:02:04,813 --> 00:02:08,253 Speaker 4: to read stories, but she throws in quite serious issues 34 00:02:08,293 --> 00:02:12,133 Speaker 4: and in this particular case, domestic violence. To be honest, 35 00:02:12,373 --> 00:02:14,613 Speaker 4: on screen, it's a little bit of a weird mix. 36 00:02:14,733 --> 00:02:18,813 Speaker 4: You have these gorgeous, glamorous people seemingly living their best lives. 37 00:02:19,053 --> 00:02:21,413 Speaker 4: There is an element of fantasy to it. Our main 38 00:02:21,533 --> 00:02:24,733 Speaker 4: character is of course called Lily's Blossom Bloom, which is 39 00:02:24,733 --> 00:02:28,413 Speaker 4: probably an improbable I think Jack and So sort of 40 00:02:28,413 --> 00:02:30,893 Speaker 4: a Hollywood version of romance. But then you have these 41 00:02:30,933 --> 00:02:33,773 Speaker 4: serious issues like domestic violence, and to be fair, I 42 00:02:33,813 --> 00:02:36,453 Speaker 4: think the filmmakers have treated it with care and with 43 00:02:36,533 --> 00:02:39,573 Speaker 4: a great amount of respect. But coming back to that mix. 44 00:02:39,693 --> 00:02:42,013 Speaker 4: I think they're oversimplified a little bit, and I'm not 45 00:02:42,093 --> 00:02:44,893 Speaker 4: sure that when they're talking about abuse and trauma and 46 00:02:44,893 --> 00:02:48,453 Speaker 4: the silence that comes with it, it should be this palatable, 47 00:02:48,693 --> 00:02:51,813 Speaker 4: if that makes sense. I think Black Syde does really 48 00:02:51,853 --> 00:02:54,213 Speaker 4: good job as our leed character. She draws you in 49 00:02:54,773 --> 00:02:58,173 Speaker 4: this film. Didn't have an emotional hit for me, but 50 00:02:58,293 --> 00:03:00,413 Speaker 4: I did get on board and I did want things 51 00:03:00,453 --> 00:03:03,293 Speaker 4: to resolve well, you know, I wanted a good outcome. 52 00:03:03,373 --> 00:03:05,773 Speaker 4: I did kind of get involved. So I think they've 53 00:03:05,773 --> 00:03:08,293 Speaker 4: done a good job. I don't think it's a maybe 54 00:03:08,333 --> 00:03:10,053 Speaker 4: it's a little bit like the book you read that 55 00:03:10,133 --> 00:03:12,013 Speaker 4: you enjoy it and you move on. 56 00:03:12,213 --> 00:03:15,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, Hey, I just think for people who maybe 57 00:03:15,293 --> 00:03:16,933 Speaker 2: missed it, do you want to explain what a co 58 00:03:17,053 --> 00:03:17,533 Speaker 2: ho is? 59 00:03:18,333 --> 00:03:20,813 Speaker 4: Oh? That's they're the fantons. 60 00:03:20,373 --> 00:03:23,333 Speaker 2: Of Colleen Hoover. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I love that 61 00:03:23,493 --> 00:03:26,133 Speaker 2: a co hoo. Yeah, I'm into it. Yeah, Okay, they 62 00:03:26,173 --> 00:03:26,933 Speaker 2: could have come across. 63 00:03:26,933 --> 00:03:28,573 Speaker 4: I imagine that you said could have come across. 64 00:03:28,653 --> 00:03:33,173 Speaker 2: No, no, I just discovered to clarify these things exactly. Yes, okay, okay, 65 00:03:33,213 --> 00:03:35,093 Speaker 2: so that's it ends with us. So that showing in 66 00:03:35,133 --> 00:03:37,853 Speaker 2: cinemas at the moment. Also showing in cinema is How 67 00:03:37,933 --> 00:03:41,053 Speaker 2: to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies. So this is a 68 00:03:41,093 --> 00:03:41,773 Speaker 2: bit of a comedy. 69 00:03:41,853 --> 00:03:45,653 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, well yeah, it's a gentle comedy. It's really beautiful. 70 00:03:45,653 --> 00:03:48,493 Speaker 4: It's it's screening now. I caught it this week and 71 00:03:48,573 --> 00:03:50,373 Speaker 4: it's kind of slipped under the radar a little bit, 72 00:03:50,373 --> 00:03:52,533 Speaker 4: and I wanted to tell people about it because it is. 73 00:03:53,013 --> 00:03:56,413 Speaker 4: It is really beautiful, it's moving, and it's been a 74 00:03:56,693 --> 00:04:00,173 Speaker 4: huge hit in Southeast Asia, and it's also become a 75 00:04:00,293 --> 00:04:03,333 Speaker 4: viral hit because people have been filming themselves crying at 76 00:04:03,333 --> 00:04:06,773 Speaker 4: the end of this film. So it's from time Land. 77 00:04:06,893 --> 00:04:10,173 Speaker 4: The theme is very universal. It's a film about bombs 78 00:04:10,173 --> 00:04:14,013 Speaker 4: within a family, and it looks at what sort of 79 00:04:14,093 --> 00:04:17,973 Speaker 4: happens to a family when a matriarch or a senior 80 00:04:18,013 --> 00:04:20,053 Speaker 4: member of a family is dying, and how the whole 81 00:04:20,093 --> 00:04:22,733 Speaker 4: family reacts and how they come together or don't and 82 00:04:23,093 --> 00:04:25,653 Speaker 4: you know, kind of participate. So the plot revolves around 83 00:04:25,693 --> 00:04:27,893 Speaker 4: his young university student m he's kind of dropped out 84 00:04:27,893 --> 00:04:29,373 Speaker 4: of school. He wants to be a game caster, but 85 00:04:29,413 --> 00:04:32,893 Speaker 4: he's pretty useless. That he's very aimless, and when his 86 00:04:32,933 --> 00:04:34,733 Speaker 4: grandmother gets it, he decides that he's going to go 87 00:04:34,733 --> 00:04:36,693 Speaker 4: and look after his grandmother because he's hoping that then 88 00:04:36,733 --> 00:04:39,253 Speaker 4: he'll become the number one family member and he will 89 00:04:39,253 --> 00:04:41,693 Speaker 4: inherit her house, and this is an easy way to 90 00:04:41,733 --> 00:04:44,213 Speaker 4: make some money. But she's a very switched on woman 91 00:04:44,253 --> 00:04:46,773 Speaker 4: with grandmother, and she knows her family and her children 92 00:04:46,773 --> 00:04:49,333 Speaker 4: and her grandchildren very very well, and so we kind 93 00:04:49,373 --> 00:04:51,973 Speaker 4: of progress throughout it. She becomes ald, We progress throughout 94 00:04:52,013 --> 00:04:54,293 Speaker 4: this illness, and it's just watching the way the different 95 00:04:54,373 --> 00:04:59,013 Speaker 4: family all kind of interact and move around this kind 96 00:04:59,013 --> 00:05:01,733 Speaker 4: of momentous sort of you know, moment in their lives, 97 00:05:01,813 --> 00:05:04,933 Speaker 4: and it's just really beautiful it is. There is just 98 00:05:05,213 --> 00:05:09,413 Speaker 4: gentle humor, lovely honesty, and as much as I knew 99 00:05:09,413 --> 00:05:11,573 Speaker 4: it was going to make me try and cry, I 100 00:05:11,613 --> 00:05:13,613 Speaker 4: did genuinely have it all here in my eyes. So 101 00:05:14,093 --> 00:05:16,293 Speaker 4: go to flex dot Coon and you'll be able to 102 00:05:16,333 --> 00:05:19,093 Speaker 4: find where it's screening around you. But it's definitely worth catching. 103 00:05:19,253 --> 00:05:22,373 Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, cool, that's how to make millions before grandma dies. 104 00:05:22,413 --> 00:05:24,213 Speaker 2: I reckon, that's the best option for me this week. 105 00:05:24,213 --> 00:05:27,933 Speaker 2: Thanks Francisca.
