1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,720
Speaker 1: Just Cinda A Durn now just Cinda Adurn seems to

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: like the Hollywood movie being made about her, because this

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 1: time it's not funded by public public money like the

4
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 1: one that's being made here in New Zealand. The movie

5
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:11,800
Speaker 1: is going to follow her political recreer from the moment

6
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 1: that she gets the Labor Party nomination all the way

7
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: through to her quitting last year. It'll be produced by

8
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: Madison Wells Studio. Shaw Mandel is an entertainment reporter for

9
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,920
Speaker 1: Los Angeles and with us. Now, Hey, Sean, hi there,

10
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,599
Speaker 1: how are you? I'm very well, thank you. What do

11
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:26,799
Speaker 1: we know about Madison Wells Studio? Are they any good?

12
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 2: They're very good. They've produced quite a few notable films,

13
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 2: not just films that have garnered interest from the public,

14
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 2: but interest, for example, from the Academy of Motion Picture

15
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 2: Art and Sciences. They produced the film The Eyes of

16
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 2: Tammy Fay, which won Jisica Testain her Oscar for Best Actress.

17
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 2: Also Hell or High Water, the Tyler Sheridan scripted movie

18
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 2: which really launched the Tyler Sheridan cinematic universe that gave

19
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 2: us Yellowstone nineteen twenty two and the lot of all

20
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 2: his work and also drive the Ryan Gosling process that

21
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 2: was very popular. Yeah, so headed by billionaire Gigi Pritzker.

22
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 2: So definitely a production company that means business.

23
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: Do we know anything about who's being cast, who is directing, screenwriting,

24
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: anything like that.

25
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 2: So for this it seems that this is going to

26
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: be a documentary feature. Now, there has been talk in

27
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 2: the past about a scripted feature, a scripted biopic portrayal

28
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 2: of Dame Desinda taking place, with Rose Byrne, for example,

29
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 2: being an actor that whose name was tossed about and

30
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 2: believed to have been cast in the role in a

31
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 2: previous production, but that production fell apart. There was controversy

32
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 2: regarding the script her casting as well. So now it

33
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 2: seems to be the focus away from doing something scripted

34
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: and now in the space of a documentary purposely, I

35
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 2: would argue in an attempt to be able to produce

36
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 2: something about Dame Disinda without involving the controversy that the

37
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 2: scripted version seems to have done. So this will be

38
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 2: a documentary and it will also have Dame Disinda's participation,

39
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 2: and she has said that one of the reasons why

40
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: she is participating as well is because there aren't any

41
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 2: dollars from New Zealand's Film Commission going towards the project.

42
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: Good stuff, Hey Sean, thank you has always appreciate it. Shanmandell,
