So Ha's got Elizabeth Banks and it's made 36 00:01:51,293 --> 00:01:53,213 Speaker 2: by Kiwi filmmaker Christine Jeffs. 37 00:01:53,853 --> 00:01:56,333 Speaker 5: Yeah, it marks the return of Christine Jeffs. 38 00:01:56,333 --> 00:01:58,613 Speaker 3: I've been a fan of her since she released Rain 39 00:01:59,093 --> 00:02:02,133 Speaker 3: and then she went on to make two more films, 40 00:02:02,133 --> 00:02:05,093 Speaker 3: Sylvia and Sun Juan Cleaning. She's returned to New Zealand 41 00:02:05,213 --> 00:02:07,853 Speaker 3: for this film Or It's in museum at a hospital 42 00:02:07,893 --> 00:02:08,533 Speaker 3: in Auckland and. 43 00:02:08,493 --> 00:02:11,973 Speaker 5: It's a film about medical ethics and bureaucracy. 44 00:02:12,413 --> 00:02:15,253 Speaker 3: She's managed to get Elizabeth Banks to play the lead character, 45 00:02:15,333 --> 00:02:18,493 Speaker 3: Elizabeth Taylor, who was a surgeon and her reputation and 46 00:02:18,533 --> 00:02:21,133 Speaker 3: career takes a hit when a patient dies after a 47 00:02:21,173 --> 00:02:25,813 Speaker 3: relatively routine procedure. The patient was thought to have appendicitis. 48 00:02:27,493 --> 00:02:30,013 Speaker 3: She they went in to do some exploratory. 49 00:02:30,893 --> 00:02:31,453 Speaker 5: Surgery. 50 00:02:32,853 --> 00:02:36,173 Speaker 3: Taylor lets a nervous young doctor insert a gas port 51 00:02:36,253 --> 00:02:39,893 Speaker 3: into her abdomen. He bungles it, it ruptures an artery. 52 00:02:39,933 --> 00:02:43,053 Speaker 3: They fix it, and the patient, theverilically should be fine, 53 00:02:43,053 --> 00:02:47,213 Speaker 3: but actually she had very She accepted sema, which was 54 00:02:47,253 --> 00:02:50,933 Speaker 3: a lot worse than people thought, and she didn't last 55 00:02:50,933 --> 00:02:54,173 Speaker 3: the night. And this is where the film gets really interesting, 56 00:02:54,773 --> 00:02:58,573 Speaker 3: because it takes a look at the consequences of a 57 00:02:58,653 --> 00:03:02,373 Speaker 3: mistake and a death and the lasting impact it has 58 00:03:02,133 --> 00:03:06,813 Speaker 3: on everybody involved. So even among the patient was really 59 00:03:06,853 --> 00:03:09,253 Speaker 3: ill and the mistake was potentially not the cause of 60 00:03:09,253 --> 00:03:13,453 Speaker 3: the death, it's how everyone from Taylor, the young surgeon, 61 00:03:14,053 --> 00:03:17,413 Speaker 3: their bosses deal with the outcome and communicate it to 62 00:03:17,493 --> 00:03:21,613 Speaker 3: the parents. It raises that issue about sort of the system, 63 00:03:21,653 --> 00:03:29,533 Speaker 3: accountability and communication. Look, Elizabeth Banks is absolutely fantastic. She 64 00:03:30,573 --> 00:03:34,093 Speaker 3: reminds us I think more recently we've sort of seen 65 00:03:34,133 --> 00:03:34,533 Speaker 3: her in. 66 00:03:34,573 --> 00:03:36,533 Speaker 5: Quite large characters. 67 00:03:36,693 --> 00:03:39,213 Speaker 3: Here, she is very much a woman who is dealing 68 00:03:39,213 --> 00:03:43,013 Speaker 3: with an internal and external sort of crisis. She's also 69 00:03:43,053 --> 00:03:45,973 Speaker 3: surrounded by very competent Key we Cast and Renna Owen 70 00:03:46,013 --> 00:03:48,413 Speaker 3: and Matthew Sunderland. They don't have a large part, but 71 00:03:48,453 --> 00:03:51,053 Speaker 3: they play the parents of this young patient and they 72 00:03:51,053 --> 00:03:56,293 Speaker 3: are absolutely superb. It raises some really thoughtful questions. It 73 00:03:56,373 --> 00:03:59,373 Speaker 3: is a very intense film. It is quite bleak, but 74 00:03:59,413 --> 00:04:03,293 Speaker 3: it's brilliantly acted. And I think, as I said to you, 75 00:04:03,533 --> 00:04:07,013 Speaker 3: just raises a whole lot of issues that relate to 76 00:04:07,093 --> 00:04:10,813 Speaker 3: our house system here New Zealand, but I think it. 77 00:04:10,813 --> 00:04:13,773 Speaker 5: Will be it will relate globally very much as well. 78 00:04:13,933 --> 00:04:17,413 Speaker 2: Very good. Okay, cool, that is a mistake. It's showing 79 00:04:17,413 --> 00:04:19,573 Speaker 2: in cinemas at the moment. Next up, let's have a 80 00:04:19,573 --> 00:04:20,933 Speaker 2: listen to The Outrun. 81 00:04:22,533 --> 00:04:25,693 Speaker 3: The urge to drink can come out of norwhere do 82 00:04:25,733 --> 00:04:29,173 Speaker 3: you think you're doing well? Suddenly you want nothing more 83 00:04:29,253 --> 00:04:29,853 Speaker 3: than a drink? 84 00:04:33,933 --> 00:04:36,333 Speaker 2: And that is Sasha Ronan tell us about The out 85 00:04:36,373 --> 00:04:37,053 Speaker 2: Run Francescin. 86 00:04:37,773 --> 00:04:40,213 Speaker 6: Yes, so this is another beautiful film actually with a 87 00:04:40,253 --> 00:04:44,653 Speaker 6: female protagonist in strite Sasha ron And I'm a huge 88 00:04:44,693 --> 00:04:46,893 Speaker 6: fan of hers and I've been reading a few articles 89 00:04:46,933 --> 00:04:50,413 Speaker 6: about this film, The Outrun, and I was absolutely thrilled 90 00:04:50,413 --> 00:04:51,053 Speaker 6: to see. 91 00:04:50,853 --> 00:04:52,733 Speaker 5: It has just started in theaters. 92 00:04:53,013 --> 00:04:56,853 Speaker 3: Now you'll probably have to head to your independent local 93 00:04:56,893 --> 00:04:59,293 Speaker 3: theater to find it like it's playing at the Lido 94 00:04:59,853 --> 00:05:02,893 Speaker 3: in Epsom. It is based on a memoir by Amy 95 00:05:02,973 --> 00:05:09,173 Speaker 3: Liptrot and Ronan plays Rona and she's a marine scientist 96 00:05:09,253 --> 00:05:11,893 Speaker 3: and she returns to her home on the wild Orkney 97 00:05:11,933 --> 00:05:14,093 Speaker 3: Islands off the north coast of Scotland. 98 00:05:15,133 --> 00:05:17,133 Speaker 5: And I am, as. 99 00:05:16,693 --> 00:05:18,773 Speaker 3: I mentioned, huge fan of Ronans and there is a 100 00:05:18,853 --> 00:05:22,053 Speaker 3: lot of award to talk around this performance, so there's 101 00:05:22,053 --> 00:05:24,253 Speaker 3: already quite a bit of an oscar buzz around it, 102 00:05:24,333 --> 00:05:28,173 Speaker 3: so definitely worth catching. She has been away from her 103 00:05:28,293 --> 00:05:30,853 Speaker 3: home for about a decade. She's been living in London, 104 00:05:30,853 --> 00:05:33,693 Speaker 3: but her life is unravel She's an alcoholic and her 105 00:05:33,733 --> 00:05:37,853 Speaker 3: alcoholism has ruined her relationship. She's lost her job, and 106 00:05:37,853 --> 00:05:41,173 Speaker 3: then there's sort of a catastrophic event which leads her 107 00:05:41,373 --> 00:05:45,133 Speaker 3: to get help. We start in Orkney and we follow 108 00:05:45,173 --> 00:05:49,013 Speaker 3: her as she's adjusting to being back home looking after 109 00:05:49,053 --> 00:05:50,333 Speaker 3: her parents have separated. 110 00:05:50,373 --> 00:05:51,573 Speaker 5: Her mother has found God. 111 00:05:51,613 --> 00:05:53,773 Speaker 3: Her father is bipolar and she helps him on the 112 00:05:53,813 --> 00:05:58,013 Speaker 3: farm raising the sheep and things. And then her London 113 00:05:58,133 --> 00:06:01,653 Speaker 3: life is all in flashbacks and we very much recognize 114 00:06:01,693 --> 00:06:05,533 Speaker 3: this young person. She's living life, she's going out, she's 115 00:06:05,573 --> 00:06:07,533 Speaker 3: having a good time, but then we just see the 116 00:06:07,613 --> 00:06:10,493 Speaker 3: addiction really take over her life, and then we watch 117 00:06:10,493 --> 00:06:11,413 Speaker 3: her go through a recovery. 118 00:06:11,413 --> 00:06:13,493 Speaker 5: She gets to a point where she goes, I'm not 119 00:06:13,533 --> 00:06:14,093 Speaker 5: really sure. 120 00:06:13,973 --> 00:06:16,333 Speaker 3: If I can ever be happy again without alcohol, And 121 00:06:16,453 --> 00:06:19,813 Speaker 3: so she ends up on this island, and the island 122 00:06:19,853 --> 00:06:22,853 Speaker 3: itself is an amazing character. It is majestic. It is 123 00:06:22,893 --> 00:06:28,053 Speaker 3: this wind gale swept place. It's nature at its most 124 00:06:28,173 --> 00:06:30,813 Speaker 3: remote and wild, and this is very much a film 125 00:06:30,893 --> 00:06:35,133 Speaker 3: about the restorative power of nature and solitude and taking 126 00:06:35,173 --> 00:06:37,013 Speaker 3: life one day at a time as we see her 127 00:06:37,053 --> 00:06:39,773 Speaker 3: find her feet. Look, it's stunning the way it unfolds. 128 00:06:39,813 --> 00:06:43,173 Speaker 3: It's not a straightforward narrative, the Scottish folklore which is 129 00:06:43,413 --> 00:06:46,973 Speaker 3: animated this documentary footage. I'm sure some of the people 130 00:06:47,053 --> 00:06:49,413 Speaker 3: on these islands are actually real people, are not. 131 00:06:49,413 --> 00:06:50,733 Speaker 5: Actors from these islands. 132 00:06:50,893 --> 00:06:55,773 Speaker 3: I just love the way this beautiful film just gently unfolded, 133 00:06:56,133 --> 00:06:58,453 Speaker 3: and I think it's a beautiful observation of a person 134 00:06:58,493 --> 00:06:59,933 Speaker 3: dealing with addiction and recovery. 135 00:07:00,133 --> 00:07:03,533 Speaker 2: Loved it sounds fantastic, great Oka you have to search 136 00:07:03,533 --> 00:07:07,333 Speaker 2: ab out a like it's a bit tricky to definitely. Okay, no, no, 137 00:07:07,413 --> 00:07:08,893 Speaker 2: that's worth it though. By the sounds of things, so 138 00:07:08,933 --> 00:07:12,733 Speaker 2: that is the outrun. Francisca's first film was a mistake. 139 00:07:13,013 --> 00:07:16,173 Speaker 2: It's the name of the film, not anything else, and 140 00:07:16,213 --> 00:07:18,053 Speaker 2: both of those films will be up on the News Talks. 141 00:07:18,053 --> 00:07:22,173 Speaker 1: He'd be website for more from Saturday Morning with Jack Tame. 142 00:07:22,333 --> 00:07:25,533 Speaker 1: Listen live to News Talks he'd be from nine am Saturday, 143 00:07:25,773 --> 00:07:27,773 Speaker 1: or follow the podcast on iHeartRadio.
