Speaker 1: phenomenal actor, incredible actor and very serious actor. So it's
Speaker 1: such a serious actor and in real life you laugh
Speaker 1: all the time, and I don't know how anyone like
Speaker 1: when you know you, it's like you're probably an even
Speaker 1: greater actor than people think, because every time between takes
Speaker 1: your in yourself laughing. Yeah. I think when I first
Speaker 1: I first worked with Jason, I think he was a
Speaker 1: little bit confused, like she's doing Yeah, were you're You're
Speaker 1: brilliant as everyone knows. Tell me, were you scared to
Speaker 1: join a cast of people that have been working together
Speaker 1: closely previous? I wasn't until you said it, were we scary? No,
Speaker 1: you weren't. You weren't scary. I think probably. I think
Speaker 1: it was until you said to me, what was it? Like?
Speaker 1: What's it like? I suddenly realized, like, you know, I've
Speaker 1: just been going through the motions of it all, and
Speaker 1: I realized, like, oh my god. Yeah. And then after that,
Speaker 1: the whole the whole afternoon, I was kind of like
Speaker 1: at school, this is so weird. Yeah, I'm sorry I
Speaker 1: put that in your head. But there was so much love.
Speaker 1: There's so much love with every one on Ted last Tho,
Speaker 1: it's just it's really special. Yeah, just makes the joy
Speaker 1: coming into work. Yeah. One of my favorite days filming
Speaker 1: was the first day you were on a bike. And
Speaker 1: we'd written the character to be like incredible on a bike,
Speaker 1: like a slick bike. Part of her thing was she
Speaker 1: gets shipped down. She's own a bike. Fucking she builds
Speaker 1: a bike. She goes on the bike, and it turned
Speaker 1: out you maybe perhaps hadn't ever been on a bike
Speaker 1: by the length of it. Yeah, you sort of in
Speaker 1: the background of a shot, just had to appear on
Speaker 1: the bike and you wobbled and you were you wobbled
Speaker 1: into frame and you were laughing so much. Good to
Speaker 1: see you just laughing in the background. And then you
Speaker 1: said something Jason like, oh, I'm maybe not that good
Speaker 1: on a bike, And he said, do you think Brett's
Speaker 1: good at football? Which is very encouraging naturally. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I just remember you. You were in you were like
Speaker 1: one of the trailers or you were in the car,
Speaker 1: and I remember you. And even June dud she's so encouraging.
Speaker 1: She's like, you've got it, You've got it. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: tell me what You're in a film that I love
Speaker 1: very much, rocks what was that like to do? It's
Speaker 1: it seems very improvised or is it? Is it as in?
Speaker 1: It feels so real? And what was that like to
Speaker 1: be part of? It was such a joy to work
Speaker 1: on that because it was in some I mean they
Speaker 1: had two writers, but it was kind of improvised, and
Speaker 1: they had, you know, these young kind of actors who
Speaker 1: never worked, never done acting before, where they've done like
Speaker 1: drama workshops and they've been together for some time. They
Speaker 1: were just so lovely and natural. I mean you could
Speaker 1: have written a story about every single one of those
Speaker 1: young girls. It was good and it was just a
Speaker 1: joy to be around that energy, and they were just fearless.
Speaker 1: They just wanted to play. I just was like, wow,
Speaker 1: I'll be thinking about position, like what you know, how
Speaker 1: am I going to improvise this around this? Yeah? Just
Speaker 1: catch on your toes. It was such a lovely, lovely film. Yeah, book,
Speaker 1: He's just amazing. Yeah. Yeah. You do a lot of plays, right,
Speaker 1: you do the plays. I do a lot of plays.
Speaker 1: I place, I do a lot of plays. What's the
Speaker 1: longest run of a play you've ever done? Some of
Speaker 1: them feel longer than they actually are. I remember doing
Speaker 1: the cruciboard, thinking this is bloody long. It was like
Speaker 1: going on for four hours. It was going on for
Speaker 1: four hours, and I was looking at the director. She
Speaker 1: likes a lot of gritty stuff, and I was looking
Speaker 1: at her. She's going to cut it. At some point,
Speaker 1: she's going to cut it, just like previews, previews. It's like,
Speaker 1: determined not to cut this four hours, four hours. I
Speaker 1: did a one woman's show that was pretty bloody long
Speaker 1: to the point I started seeing. I was like, one point,
Speaker 1: I forgot my lines and I was waiting for the
Speaker 1: character to come in, but I was playing the character.
Speaker 1: It's like a second when I was like, I was
Speaker 1: kind of going, what's happening, and then it's like it's me.
Speaker 1: It's me. I'm supposed to speak. Yeah. What was the
Speaker 1: what was that? What was the woman? It was called
Speaker 1: The Bogus Woman, written by Kayad said. She was a
Speaker 1: brilliant play and it was about this woman that was
Speaker 1: seeking asylum in this country. And it was around the
Speaker 1: time of the labor government, so early nineties, and it
Speaker 1: was about her and how she falls through the cracks.
Speaker 1: It was very heavy play through the cracks of the system. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: but then do you know. That's how I got THEO
Speaker 1: as my agent. THEO came to see with Mike Lee.
Speaker 1: Really so at Jackson's Lane. Do you remember Jackson's Lane? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah yeah. So I had I had an audition with
Speaker 1: Mike Lee for a film, which was turned out to
Speaker 1: be Happy Go Lucky, and he was like, well, I'm
Speaker 1: going to come see you. It was like a mid
Speaker 1: scale tour. We've taken it to New York and Australia
Speaker 1: and then we were like doing like this mid scale
Speaker 1: tour and he's like, I'm going to either come to Croydon,
Speaker 1: Croydon Library or Crawley. Mikeley comes to Crawley. I was like,
Speaker 1: oh my god. Then it came to Jackson's Lane and
Speaker 1: he said I think he said to THEO. This is
Speaker 1: what he told me. He said, I told THEO she
Speaker 1: better take you because you're gonna get snaped up. I
Speaker 1: didn't get snapped up any person. It came with a
Speaker 1: CEO took me on. Yeah. Wow. Are you ever allowed
Speaker 1: to say I've heard from someone, but I've never said
Speaker 1: in a podcast. I don't even know. I always wonder
Speaker 1: if it's like secrecy or whatever. What you did for
Speaker 1: a Michley audition or are you not allowed to say?
Speaker 1: Is it secrets? I don't think you allowed to say.
Speaker 1: Just like you just do you just do. He just
Speaker 1: answers you to come in the room and do something,
Speaker 1: and then you just do something. You know, all above board,
Speaker 1: so much less obviously you know, we're also to secrecy. Please, yes,
Speaker 1: something we can't talk. He steps out, and then he
Speaker 1: steps in. Oh my god, this is this is it
Speaker 1: seems like it is. Yeah, and when you did that one,
Speaker 1: have you go lucky from what I understand your film
Speaker 1: for like six months or something and then you don't
Speaker 1: know what what's being used and what's in the film. No,
Speaker 1: it was Yeah, it was a very long process. It's
Speaker 1: a very long process. And when you saw the film
Speaker 1: where you're like, oh that's what you were dude. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like at least I made the film, because I
Speaker 1: was like, I've heard all kinds of rubers how people
Speaker 1: get cut. At least I made the film. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Sarah.
Speaker 1: Now fuck, yes, I've forgotten to tell you something, oh Sarah.
Speaker 1: Oh no, I did write it down and I was
Speaker 1: going to read it. Fuck I should have said at
Speaker 1: the beginning actually, but um, fu, you you've died, you're dead? No, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's actually awful. Yeah, I miss you. A slow, painful death. Wow, Okay,
Speaker 1: I choked out a party? Oh wow, in front in
Speaker 1: front of us? Did yeah? You know you laughing? I
Speaker 1: like that you died laughing, but very slowly and painfully. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Do you know what? Do you know what you were taking? Though?
Speaker 1: Probably an olive? I'm never really into martinis, and I
Speaker 1: maybe had a Oh my god, how many of your
Speaker 1: loved ones were there? I mean there was a few
Speaker 1: people I didn't care for, but probably my my old
Speaker 1: school friends. There, two buddies, and so you were chaking
Speaker 1: it very slowly and painfully. People tried to help, but
Speaker 1: or they did. They did try to help, but I
Speaker 1: think there was a lot of time where they were
Speaker 1: just deciding what to do. There's a lot of confusion
Speaker 1: about what to do. Yeah, and then I got tired
Speaker 1: of it. Let me out right. Yeah, Just to be clear,
Speaker 1: this is your decision, your You get to choose how
Speaker 1: you die. I didn't know that. I didn't know. Oh no,
Speaker 1: on the upside, you were laughing. On the down side,
Speaker 1: it was so painful, and no one helps you. Do
Speaker 1: you worry about death. Yes, you can, we talk about it.
Speaker 1: I have a fear. Yeah, yeah, I have a fear.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't think I fear it myself. I
Speaker 1: think I fear other people die. And then you know,
Speaker 1: like love ones, how they would feel if I died.
Speaker 1: It's more about that. And I thought, should I go
Speaker 1: and work somewhere where I'd just like face to face
Speaker 1: with death all the time. Yeah, in order to, you know,
Speaker 1: in order to what do you think happens when you die?
Speaker 1: Is there a light? I think there's a light. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I have no bloody idea. I think this whole idea
Speaker 1: of it being this tunnel and there's a light and
Speaker 1: you see your loved ones. I'm not sure. I think
Speaker 1: I'd be in the waiting room for quite some time.
Speaker 1: I think I'd been like a waiting room waiting. What's
Speaker 1: happening in the waiting room. There's like as in because
Speaker 1: there's a queue or because they're sort of it's just
Speaker 1: you in the waiting room. It's just you in the
Speaker 1: waiting room. Then they call your name, then you're off,
Speaker 1: And I'm like, what about the lights? Where's the angels?
Speaker 1: The Lessons of My Life with the book it's just
Speaker 1: a waiting room, like like a a doctor. It's just
Speaker 1: like a sort of bland. Yeah, but the old fact,
Speaker 1: you know, there's old fashioned doctor. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you have had those surgeries, the old fashioned doctor surgeries.
Speaker 1: It looked like someone's living room. Yeah, well it's one
Speaker 1: of those. It looked like someone's living room, but it
Speaker 1: was actually a waiting instead of it being impact with patients,
Speaker 1: it's just you in the room and it's great. They're
Speaker 1: like House and Garden magazine and on the side or
Speaker 1: are you just sat there anything to Maybe there's magazines.
Speaker 1: Maybe there's magazines and you get onto, you know, a
Speaker 1: really good magazine. You get distracted and it's your and
Speaker 1: then your name comes up and it's time to go.
Speaker 1: That's what I reckon. When your name comes up, do
Speaker 1: they does someone come out or is it just an
Speaker 1: announcement and you go through a door announcement? Right? Can
Speaker 1: you do some acting and do the voice that will
Speaker 1: announce it? What does it sound like? I think it
Speaker 1: would be like one of those automated ones, be like
Speaker 1: Sarah Niles, Okay, and then you go through the door,
Speaker 1: and then what happens on the outside of the door.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's probably I don't know. It could
Speaker 1: be just black and as you walk little lights come up.
Speaker 1: I don't know, like like think about it this dance floor, yeah,
Speaker 1: or like Rember the cinemas when you have a little lights,
Speaker 1: it's your lights used to be there, need to be
Speaker 1: pitched black maybe something like that. But as you move
Speaker 1: the lights go on. Yeah, yeah, I like that. But
Speaker 1: then what's because a lot of what's happening in your
Speaker 1: death is there's an awful lot of sort of journey.
Speaker 1: You know, you've been in the waiting room. Now you're
Speaker 1: going and these lights are ahead of you. But what's
Speaker 1: it at the end of the path. I don't know.
Speaker 1: It's spit like my life really spit a journey. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know what's to the end. Well, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: bloody tell you. It's heaven. It's heaven. Baby. You've walked
Speaker 1: along these lighted panels and there's another door and you
Speaker 1: go in there at it. It's for kidding, Gray, It's
Speaker 1: filled with your favorite thing. What's your favorite thing? I
Speaker 1: love music. I love music. There's gotta be music in there.
Speaker 1: It's about time someone said music. We haven't no one
Speaker 1: said that this heaven is fucking great. There's music everywhere.
Speaker 1: The walls are made of vinyl records, the seats turntables.
Speaker 1: You can get comfy, and everyone sings beautifully if you
Speaker 1: want them to. And there's even people with guitars who
Speaker 1: will only play when you want them to, and it's
Speaker 1: just beautiful. Everyone's so excited to see you, and everyone
Speaker 1: speaks in rhyme. It's really lovely, and everyone's just very
Speaker 1: excited to see you, and they want to talk about
Speaker 1: your life. They're huge fans, but they want to talk
Speaker 1: about your life through the medium of film. And the
Speaker 1: first thing they ask you, what's the first film you
Speaker 1: remember seeing? The first film I remember seeing. My mom
Speaker 1: used to take us to the cinema, so I think
Speaker 1: she took us to see The Black Hole. Do you
Speaker 1: know that? I do know The Black Color, the Disney film. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think she took she took me to see that,
Speaker 1: but I didn't understand. I didn't understand what was going
Speaker 1: on apart from it was in the middle of like
Speaker 1: a black hole. It's like space. But yeah, that was one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I used to have this um I want you
Speaker 1: call the Fisher Price. The one was red and you'd
Speaker 1: get those view finder and I had one of the Yeah,
Speaker 1: she brought me the one with a black hole, and
Speaker 1: I'd be looking through the black hole. As far as
Speaker 1: I remember, and I have seen it. It was a
Speaker 1: Disney film and they made it after Star Wars. It
Speaker 1: was meant to be like their version Star Wars. But
Speaker 1: it's incredibly dark and it ends with them all going
Speaker 1: into a black hole and sort of floating after death. Yeah. Man,
Speaker 1: I've watched it again quite a few years back, and
Speaker 1: I didn't. I still didn't understand quite other spoored quite
Speaker 1: understand was going. I remember watching that film. It's amazing
Speaker 1: and scary. Space. Yeah. When you say we took out,
Speaker 1: how many of you went? Do you have me and
Speaker 1: my sister? Yeah. My mum was really into sci fi.
Speaker 1: She took us to see Star Wars as well. But
Speaker 1: she was yeah, is your sister elder or younger? Older?
Speaker 1: And where was this? This was in Stretum. My brother
Speaker 1: was He used to have the wallpaper what my brother
Speaker 1: had the wallpaper the black How my mum bought him
Speaker 1: the wallpaper for the black hole? He had it in
Speaker 1: his room. He had the best wallpaper, you know those
Speaker 1: days when you got really good wallpaper. You had that.
Speaker 1: I think he had Maximilians of Battlestar Galactica. I think
Speaker 1: he had on that really cool. It was your wallpaper flowers, floral,
Speaker 1: very floral, pinks and magnolia. Right, no, no, what Tark film?
Speaker 1: Do you remember thinking, Oh, I like the cinema or
Speaker 1: were you just like this is fucking scary. That was scary.
Speaker 1: I mean I did love the cinema because you used
Speaker 1: to go. It used to go down, like I said
Speaker 1: it was, it was pitch black, and you used to
Speaker 1: have somebody's come and check your tickets. You'd have someone
Speaker 1: to come and check your tickets, and you'd go down,
Speaker 1: go up, maybe with a torch, and they'd guide you
Speaker 1: to the seat and you'd go down to the seat
Speaker 1: and you'd sit down. I love that. I missed that
Speaker 1: kind of magic. It was like dark, I'm sterious that
Speaker 1: someone's got torch and you've got you gotta wait your turn,
Speaker 1: you know, eager to get in the seat. You gotta
Speaker 1: wait your turn. And if you're late, the trailers are
Speaker 1: up and stuff like that. But you're right, it's more
Speaker 1: of an event. Yeah, what is the film that made
Speaker 1: you cry? The most. Do you cry a lot sarandous? Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was always told I was a sensitive child. I
Speaker 1: used to cry a lot of movies. My daughters the same.
Speaker 1: She cried a lot of Jungle Book, Oh bless. But
Speaker 1: the film that I watched that made me, do you
Speaker 1: know there were so many eat was one but the
Speaker 1: Champ Do you remember the champo fade done away? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And what was what was the kid's name? Oh gosh,
Speaker 1: isn't it Britt? That's it? Yeah? Yeah, that film, oh
Speaker 1: picular When you look back in now, it's just like,
Speaker 1: was it with the fact, Yeah, she was kind of
Speaker 1: like the mum was taking going to take him away,
Speaker 1: and he wanted John Voy's character. He was like a
Speaker 1: used to be a pro boxer with a successful boxer,
Speaker 1: but he turned to alcohol and gambling, and he was
Speaker 1: going to get his son taken away, and the only
Speaker 1: way he was gonna get custody is if he took
Speaker 1: another fight so he could provide for his son. And
Speaker 1: there's a whole scene where he's begging him, you know,
Speaker 1: wake up, wake up, wake up, You're the champ wake up.
Speaker 1: Awful slightly slightly manipulative when you think about it, it
Speaker 1: was very good at I know, I know. Do you
Speaker 1: like crying? Yes, it's cathartic. I enjoy it. It's like
Speaker 1: a cleansing mybies. It's one of my hobbies. I think
Speaker 1: I think I cry a lot more since I've had
Speaker 1: a kid. I think I cry a lot more. And yeah,
Speaker 1: that makes sense, Yeah, that really makes sense. It's a
Speaker 1: funny one because I feel like when I was younger,
Speaker 1: I found it really uncomfortable to cry. I just couldn't
Speaker 1: cope with crying of this, this poor boy losing his dad.
Speaker 1: I was just like, it's too much. But as I've
Speaker 1: got older, I'm kind of like, yeah, I understanding. I've
Speaker 1: been on understanding. Yeah about that feeling. What about being scared?
Speaker 1: Do you like being scared? No? I do not. And
Speaker 1: the older I've got the worst. Yeah, the worst it's got.
Speaker 1: I mean during COVID, I kept thinking I need to
Speaker 1: watch more horror movies. I really had this strong feeling
Speaker 1: to watch movies. But no, I don't, like, I don't.
Speaker 1: I've watched yeah, some crazy they were crazy kind of
Speaker 1: films like dolls, dolls, things like dolls, and yeah, did
Speaker 1: you even see that? Yeah that's so stupid. And yeah,
Speaker 1: nightmare and elm watching. Yeah, but what's the one that
Speaker 1: scared you the most? Oh, Blood's Exorcist. It's Exorcist. I
Speaker 1: remember my brother and my mom and dad were getting
Speaker 1: rich what they're gonna go and watch it, and they're like,
Speaker 1: it's tough for you to go to bed. So I
Speaker 1: pretended to go to bed, but I watched for the
Speaker 1: crack of the door like a fool fool. I was,
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I could not sleep after that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the whole, the whole religion and the fusion of religion
Speaker 1: and sex. Yeah, possession was like, what, it's nasty that film.
Speaker 1: It's really awful. Yeah, yeah, it's really I don't think
Speaker 1: I understood it when I was little, because I did
Speaker 1: watch it. I was little, when I thought it was
Speaker 1: sort of boring. I didn't get it. And then I
Speaker 1: watched it a couple of years ago and I was like,
Speaker 1: fucking hell, this is so dark. It's so dark when
Speaker 1: she turns her head around and oh my god, and
Speaker 1: she's like and it's like, oh my god, I want
Speaker 1: to curst you reboot please. That'd be great. That'd be
Speaker 1: so good, you wouldn't it. That's a good idea. That's
Speaker 1: a genius idea. What the film that people don't like it?
Speaker 1: It's not crizzily acclaimed, but you love it unconditionally. It
Speaker 1: was hard to decide this one. There's so many, but
Speaker 1: there's one. I'm not sure that I think people do
Speaker 1: love this film. It's scrooged. I love Bill Murray, I
Speaker 1: mean love love Bill Murray. And yes, some of the
Speaker 1: effects were questionable, but the ghosts. But I love that film.
Speaker 1: I kind of religiously watch it if I can, nearly
Speaker 1: every Christmas. And it's got one of my favorite actresses
Speaker 1: in it, Alfrey Would. I just love her. She's brilliant,
Speaker 1: She's so good. I'm sure a lot of that film
Speaker 1: is improvised. I just think it's so funny. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: wonder if it is. That's an you can have that.
Speaker 1: That's a great I can have that one. You can Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm sure this far worst films. Yeah. On the other hand,
Speaker 1: what's a film that you used to love but you've
Speaker 1: watched it recently and you've got, oh no, I don't
Speaker 1: like this anymore. Well, that would definitely be ghost I
Speaker 1: can't bear that. Why I watched it in years? What's
Speaker 1: wrong with going I haven't watched it years. I think
Speaker 1: I think if I watched it again, I'll probably be
Speaker 1: a bit more forgiving. But it was I think I
Speaker 1: was caught up in the romance. Yeah, chicks crazy. I'm thinking, oh,
Speaker 1: this is so sexy, so romantic, and then you think
Speaker 1: about it's like what, Yeah, I mean, this was This
Speaker 1: was a hard one I had. I had, I had
Speaker 1: Ghost and I had Breakfast a Tiphanies, which I still love,
Speaker 1: but it's probably not appropriate making Rooney preposenttivities has quite
Speaker 1: a huge problem in it. That is extraordinary when you
Speaker 1: were it's mind blowing. It's mind blowing. The problem in Breakfast,
Speaker 1: Like it's not like if you said to someone watch prefosctifty,
Speaker 1: it's a classic, then they're so something a bit off
Speaker 1: in it, see if you can spot it, and then
Speaker 1: that's pretty bad. Yeah, oh you mean that. It's really outrageous.
Speaker 1: It's wild, It really is. Yeah, it's quite a big
Speaker 1: part of the film. You can't pretend that it's not there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it goes on and on. Yeah, it's incredible that
Speaker 1: it was okay at the time. Yeah, I don't understand
Speaker 1: that it's mad, but yeah, the rest of the film
Speaker 1: is lovely. Sure, sure, she looks great. Great cats the cats.
Speaker 1: I love the song, love the song. Yeah yeah, What
Speaker 1: about the film that means the most to you? Not
Speaker 1: necessarily the film itself is any good, but the experience
Speaker 1: you had around seeing the film will always make it
Speaker 1: special to you. Sarah and Iles, that would be imitation
Speaker 1: of life. Have you seen this movie? This is Douglas
Speaker 1: sec film. Yes, yes, talk to me, Okay, I watched this.
Speaker 1: It was you know, in the days when you'd sit
Speaker 1: with nothing to do in a weekend, mostly a Saturday,
Speaker 1: and they would show the movies on TV. And I
Speaker 1: remember my mom talking about it was one of the
Speaker 1: first films she saw in Barbados with her dad, and
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, it's that old. And then I
Speaker 1: remember watching it and I remember my mom just in tears.
Speaker 1: She was in tears. And then I've watched it again
Speaker 1: and again over a number of years. I loved that
Speaker 1: film so much. It's just such a struggle, that film.
Speaker 1: And I think about those two brothers, and particularly is
Speaker 1: it one eater the mother and her raising like kind
Speaker 1: of mixed race child in those times, and her totally
Speaker 1: rejecting the mum, and then it's too late by the
Speaker 1: time she turned around, and one that you know wants
Speaker 1: to run to her. She's dying. And then you've got
Speaker 1: my Halo Jackson singing, Oh my gosh, what a song. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I loved that film. I just remember seeing my mom
Speaker 1: crying so much. That's just like, is she going to
Speaker 1: recover from that film? Yeah, it's really odd when you're
Speaker 1: a child you see your parent cry. Yeah. Good title,
Speaker 1: imitation of life. It is really good performances. Do you
Speaker 1: like the Far from Heaven? You've seen that the Todd
Speaker 1: Haynes with Julian Moore and it's kind of yeah, it's
Speaker 1: like a Douglas seque homage. Yeah, I believe. I wonder
Speaker 1: if Yeah, I think I would. I loved Julian Moore.
Speaker 1: Oh she's the best. She's bloody gorgeous. She really is.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna write when I saw Seen with so much stuff,
Speaker 1: when I saw in Big Labowska, I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: she could be one of my girl crushes. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: she's very What about the film you most relate to
Speaker 1: relate to? I watched this film a while but and
Speaker 1: that was Pressure horace Ov and it was set in London,
Speaker 1: and it was like this young boy trying to like
Speaker 1: born in England and he's trying to can't work out
Speaker 1: being British and his families from the Caribbean, and it's about, yeah,
Speaker 1: him just trying to get a job. And that was
Speaker 1: one film that I really relate to do it. This
Speaker 1: is really hard because I'm terrible at making decisions, and
Speaker 1: it was that one. And then I saw Lulu Wang's
Speaker 1: The Farewell and I thought that could be. That could
Speaker 1: be my family. It's just and the secrets, Yeah, the
Speaker 1: kind of I just loved it. I just it just
Speaker 1: somehow resonated to me, like you know, the cooking of
Speaker 1: food and preparing of food, to keeping the secrets from
Speaker 1: the grandmother and just trying to but it's bloody funny.
Speaker 1: I think it's something about the immigrant I think that's
Speaker 1: what it. Yeah as well, is your family. Would your
Speaker 1: family keep a secret from the grandma like the secret
Speaker 1: in the Fair World? I think definitely. I mean, my
Speaker 1: grandparents are no longer around, but I think I think,
Speaker 1: not not as extreme as that, but I think they
Speaker 1: would keep They all keep secrets. The older you've stuck,
Speaker 1: you know, these little little gems start coming out as
Speaker 1: they get older. They all keep secrets, the families, how
Speaker 1: they keep together and hide things interesting. I mean I
Speaker 1: haven't I haven't heard their secrets, but I always feel like,
Speaker 1: like particularly I can only really speak from a Caribbean perspective,
Speaker 1: like my family, I feel like particularly mums, mothers. I
Speaker 1: think they should have they missed a trick when they
Speaker 1: invite people to come over and work on the buses
Speaker 1: in the hospitals, they should have got them to work
Speaker 1: for secret intelligence. So that fucking right. Tell they missed
Speaker 1: a trick. I want to make that film even more
Speaker 1: than they want to reboot The Exorcist with you reading,
Speaker 1: that's a great idea. They missed a bloody trick. I'm
Speaker 1: telling you. I've talked to lots of my friends with
Speaker 1: you know, the parents or grandmothers or something, especially like
Speaker 1: with Alzheimer's and stuff like some of them, even with that,
Speaker 1: they'll hold those secrets to the grave. Man. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: think they're going to leak certain things out? Nothing will.
Speaker 1: They're impenetrable. I respect that. Yeah, yeah, that's cool. What
Speaker 1: is here? We go? Saradasm sorry to do this to you.
Speaker 1: What's the sexiest film you'd ever see? Oh? My god?
Speaker 1: See this is This was hard because I like, I
Speaker 1: think what sexy film I was thinking of was like
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, Moonlight's really sexy. No it's not.
Speaker 1: It's a tender film. It's a love story. And I
Speaker 1: was like, anyone one I could remember that was making
Speaker 1: me like kind of uncomfortable. I watched it was She's
Speaker 1: got to have it Spike Lee the film. I remember going, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, but you know, I thought, I remember
Speaker 1: that one's being sexy, but for me uncomfortably because I
Speaker 1: was quite young at the time, going this is too raunchy.
Speaker 1: She's with this person and that person, and I remember, yeah,
Speaker 1: I remember that. I remember that definitely. She was gorgeous. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and she just I think for me, like she had
Speaker 1: so much agency over her sexuality that kind of freed
Speaker 1: me at the time at the time. Yes, sure, yes, yes, yeah.
Speaker 1: There's a subcategory to this question. Traveling Bone is worrying
Speaker 1: Why Dones, what's the film you found arousing that you
Speaker 1: weren't sure you should. Again, I was young. I know
Speaker 1: someone else has mentioned this film, but not for this reason.
Speaker 1: It's got to be Howard the Duck. Howard the Duck.
Speaker 1: That is a perfect answer, as long as you mean
Speaker 1: about animals at the time, I mean the duck. I
Speaker 1: mean the duck that was kind of Yeah, what's extraordinary
Speaker 1: about that. It's not that that you were attracted to
Speaker 1: a duck, it's that Howard's a bit of a dickhead.
Speaker 1: I think it says more about the that's the traveling bit.
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't learn it. It's a duck. It's
Speaker 1: just Howard's not you know, it's a bit. He's a
Speaker 1: bit of a Dickityward I was young, un foolish. He
Speaker 1: had it was a bad something about him. And yeah,
Speaker 1: he was a bad duck. He had something about him,
Speaker 1: and she found she was kind of like, oh, and
Speaker 1: it's all he was when he started quivering in his tai. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so that's revealing. I love I love you for answering that.
Speaker 1: Probably so few people do. I also think you saying
Speaker 1: we had something about him. For Howard the ducks, he
Speaker 1: had something about it, especially when they're singing. That's at
Speaker 1: the end. You know, Howard the duck didn't didn't. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he was kind of yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, he had
Speaker 1: a way before yeah, yea, yeah, he's trouble. I don't
Speaker 1: mind it. I thought we should quickly pass what is
Speaker 1: the what is objectively, objectively the greatest film of all time?
Speaker 1: I'm going to s this lies, but I want to say,
Speaker 1: don't judge me, but I love this film so much.
Speaker 1: Is stir crazy? Anything with Gene Wilder and anything want
Speaker 1: a Richard Prior, Oh my gosh, that combination. It's like,
Speaker 1: it's just it just makes me feel good. So that's
Speaker 1: a great film. What magic magic combo? They were, Ah man, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's some things in there that are totally
Speaker 1: unappropriate for our time, but yeah, I'm almost definitely sun Yeah.
Speaker 1: What about what's the film you could or have? What's
Speaker 1: the most over and over again? The producers, there's a
Speaker 1: there's a mel Brooks. Yeah, I love that film. I had.
Speaker 1: I remember one point when I was like like having depression.
Speaker 1: I would play the opening of the film right up
Speaker 1: to when Gene Wilder comes in and his baby blue banking.
Speaker 1: I would watch on repeat, and then I'd got off
Speaker 1: on my day. I loved that film, absolutely love it.
Speaker 1: Zero Mostell genius. Yeah, yes, do you love the musical?
Speaker 1: Did you see the musical? I didn't see the musical.
Speaker 1: I just felt like I was kind of a bit
Speaker 1: purist about it, and I wish I had seen it. Actually,
Speaker 1: it's really funny. I think I think you'd have been
Speaker 1: a right of it because mel Brooks had written it.
Speaker 1: It wasn't yeah, it wasn't like it's very funny. Yeah,
Speaker 1: But I think after watching it on repeat, I was
Speaker 1: a bit obsessed with gene Wild, I was just look, yeah,
Speaker 1: he's so yeah. Was he a crushed of yours? Probably yeah,
Speaker 1: old ball, Yeah, probably a crush of life. Something about him.
Speaker 1: It was something about Yeah, I loved yeah, China Chocolate Factory.
Speaker 1: I loved him in that, and I could tell he
Speaker 1: slightly hated the children. But oh yeah, just brilliant, just
Speaker 1: the imagination. He's just yeah, oh yeah, definitely he's a
Speaker 1: bit of medic. Yeah he is. I don't like being
Speaker 1: negative saringers, but we have to briefly, what's the worst
Speaker 1: film you ever saw? Do you know I'd put any
Speaker 1: of those bad come food movies, like Steven said, go
Speaker 1: hate them. I'm loves them, cannot stand them. But I
Speaker 1: was gonna say, it's kind of like a I still
Speaker 1: have a love hate real issue with it. It's probably
Speaker 1: Gremlins too. How dare you. I know, I know, but
Speaker 1: I love it. Do you know what I was in
Speaker 1: a comic shop, you know, when I had them kind
Speaker 1: of like these sized versions of the Little Gremlins, lovely
Speaker 1: little boxes, and I thought, yeah, when i've got more
Speaker 1: money than since, I'm going to buy a lot of those.
Speaker 1: Absolutely love them. But yeah, it's Gremlin because I love
Speaker 1: Gremlins one. And i'd love to say, yeah, I'm seeing
Speaker 1: Gremlins too, mightly better? Do you think so? I love
Speaker 1: Gremlins too? Oh, dear funny. It's funny, it's wild. It's
Speaker 1: got a musical sequence when they say in New York,
Speaker 1: New York, it's got a Lady gre Lynn, It's it's
Speaker 1: got a back gremlin. It's got a satire on Trump
Speaker 1: long before he was he was. Yeah, it's got Lex
Speaker 1: Leefer's dad in it. It's fucking brilliant. True. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: should have gone with Steven Sigel. Yeah. Well, I'm really
Speaker 1: mad at you. But that's okay, that's okay. But I
Speaker 1: am angry at you. No, I'm not angry. I'm disappointed.
Speaker 1: You're disappointed. I'll let you down. That's even worse. I'd
Speaker 1: rather you be angry. Okay, I'm going to watch it again,

Speaker 1: I think about what you've said. Yeah, what is okay?
Speaker 1: You're you're in comedy, You're very funny. What's the film
Speaker 1: that made you laugh the most? Oh my gosh, I've said, producers,

Speaker 1: relating pieces from the film, but it is and John
Speaker 1: Goodman is brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. It's so funny. I watch
Speaker 1: another one, Sarah. Now you've been absolutely wonderful. As expected, However,
Speaker 1: bless when you were given the choice of how to die,
Speaker 1: you were you decided on a dinner party, were having
Speaker 1: a dinner party, and you were surrounded by loved ones,
Speaker 1: but also quite a few people you didn't want there
Speaker 1: as well. Basically it's kind of a notemare dinner party.
Speaker 1: And you were handed a Cosmopolitan, I believe, and it
Speaker 1: had an olive in. It's that right, Cosmo, boss, That
Speaker 1: is that the one that has the Martin. It was
Speaker 1: a Martin and you said cheers, and you downed it
Speaker 1: and the olive went straight into your throat and got caught,
Speaker 1: and you were laughing and you started laughing, but you
Speaker 1: then started chaking, and people were like, is she laughing
Speaker 1: or is she choking? And all your friends had like
Speaker 1: a meeting about it. They all met around the other
Speaker 1: You're just choking slowly, very painfully and very slowly choking
Speaker 1: to death. And all your friends went around elder on
Speaker 1: the table they hadn't at meeting. Do you think she's
Speaker 1: still laughing or do you think she's choking? And one
Speaker 1: of them said she'll we try and help her, and
Speaker 1: but then the other one said, do you know the
Speaker 1: Heimlich maneuvers? Like someone of them said, well, I've seen
Speaker 1: it in a film, but I don't know how easy
Speaker 1: it is in real life. So then they tried to
Speaker 1: google it. One they couldn't get the Wi Fi pass.
Speaker 1: Who's got the wi fi. Meanwhile, you're still on the
Speaker 1: other side of table, very slowly and painfully checking, and
Speaker 1: then one of them goes, sorry, could you get that?
Speaker 1: Do you have like the modem for your WiFi? Because
Speaker 1: it's quite and they go and then, oh god, that guys,
Speaker 1: Oh god, it's it's a really complicated WiFi. It's actually
Speaker 1: like loads of capital letters and some small letters and
Speaker 1: numbers and symbols. Go and get John, Go and get
Speaker 1: the actual box, take a picture of it on your
Speaker 1: phone and bring it in here and then we can
Speaker 1: put the WiFi in. Meanwhile, you're still very slowly back
Speaker 1: checking all your friends. This is dark and cruel your friends.
Speaker 1: And they get they comes back to WiFi, reads it
Speaker 1: out to two mony friends. Is like capital W, little W,
Speaker 1: little eye seven six capital then and ship and the
Speaker 1: person goes, oh shit, I'm sorry. Can we start again again? Yeah?
Speaker 1: W capital you're still checking slightly capital big W a
Speaker 1: little I'm so sorry. I think I'm nervous. Can you
Speaker 1: start again? Just very slowly? So it's a capital W.
Speaker 1: And they finally get the WiFi passed with it, and
Speaker 1: then they're like, how do you spell haimlick? How do
Speaker 1: you spell because I've been lick and it's just the
Speaker 1: video of Haym performing and someone like licking and microphone
Speaker 1: mean while you're very slightly bathfully choking to death or
Speaker 1: your friend anyway. One of them goes, oh, I like
Speaker 1: that band. Hey, yeah, no, not hey, it's home Lick Home,
Speaker 1: Lick maneuver anyway. You then collapse to the floor. They
Speaker 1: still go, oh god, what do we do? Well, just
Speaker 1: I still need the password. And then one of them says, oh,
Speaker 1: I think I think maybe she's dead, and they go,
Speaker 1: oh shit, I'm walking past with the coffee. A knock
Speaker 1: on the window. I go, you're having a dinner party.
Speaker 1: I hate dinner parties. And they go, yeah, this one's
Speaker 1: been quite bad actually, and they go why, and they go,
Speaker 1: I think while we were trying to fit a Wi
Speaker 1: Fi pass within, Sarah died from checking on an olive
Speaker 1: and I was like, well, that's awful. So I come in.
Speaker 1: I try and pack you into the coffin. But because
Speaker 1: of all the air you'd taken in as you're swollowing
Speaker 1: the martini, you've actually like puffed up quite a lot,
Speaker 1: and your body is now much bigger than it normally
Speaker 1: and so that isn't the right size for the coffin.
Speaker 1: So then have to get your friends in the game,
Speaker 1: bring some knives and stuff. You have to chop you up,
Speaker 1: chop you out. Everyone's oh, everyone's joining in chopping you up.
Speaker 1: Chop now it's quite Bundy excide for everyone in a way.
Speaker 1: And then everyone put some in the coffee and the
Speaker 1: coffee is absolutely rammed. And just to reiterate, this was
Speaker 1: your choice. Coffee is absolutely rap And there's only enough
Speaker 1: room in this coffee room. In this coffee by the way,
Speaker 1: when we chopped you up, you know what happened, and
Speaker 1: olive popped chopped out, just popped out someone in the
Speaker 1: forehead anyway, But there's any enough room in this coffin
Speaker 1: for me to slip one DVD into the side and
Speaker 1: you can take that to the other side. And on
Speaker 1: the other side, it's movie night every night. What film
