Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell show podcast. I need some advice. Now.
Speaker 2: I got two teenage daughters, both homeschooling at the moment,
Speaker 2: I'm looking to start a movie club once a week
Speaker 2: with my thirteen year old who's in a bit of
Speaker 2: a FuG at the moment. So I said, right, okay,
Speaker 2: this is what we're gonna do over the next six weeks.
Speaker 2: We are, me and her are going to watch a movie.
Speaker 2: Right every Monday afternoon. We got to watch the whole movie,
Speaker 2: and then afterwards we're gonna have a chat about it.
Speaker 2: Because actually, there are so many great movies that are
Speaker 2: about life and then really maybe you think about things
Speaker 2: from a different perspective, or or have empathy to make
Speaker 2: you think about someone that you don't even know what
Speaker 2: it's like to be, you know, in their lives and
Speaker 2: in their shoes. I thought this would be an interesting
Speaker 2: thing for us to do. You know, she always she
Speaker 2: absolutely loves this movie. No, I catch her watching it
Speaker 2: about once or twice a month, really, even just in
Speaker 2: a lunch break from her twenty minutes. She absolutely loves
Speaker 2: this movie The Breakfast Club. It's quite an interesting movie
Speaker 2: about the different characters in it. What school about and
Speaker 2: high school.
Speaker 1: And stuff like that. So I need recommendations for the
Speaker 1: movie club. What do you think?
Speaker 2: What are the movies that are about life that teach
Speaker 2: us something, that says something to us that'll be interesting
Speaker 2: to talk about watch.
Speaker 3: Oh wow, great, you've already seen Ferris Bueller, haven't you?
Speaker 2: With the girls they love that that movie age as
Speaker 2: well as well. It's quite interesting because as you watch
Speaker 2: it again and they see different things that they were
Speaker 2: more interested in Cameron and their relationship with him.
Speaker 1: Is Caro was the friend? Was it? Yeah? Cameron was
Speaker 1: the guys. You remember Patsy.
Speaker 2: He had the expensive sports car and his dad has
Speaker 2: never seen but Cameron obviously fears his dad has some
Speaker 2: strange relationship with his dad. Has that amazing bit at
Speaker 2: the end, they're more intertet. I don't know what they
Speaker 2: were trying to say to me about that.
Speaker 1: What should I watch today? Let's go to Joe. What
Speaker 1: movie have you got for us?
Speaker 4: I recommendation feelius, Did Poet Society? I remember when my daughter,
Speaker 4: she's a little bit older than your thirteen year old,
Speaker 4: she's seventeen now, but we watched Did Poet Society together
Speaker 4: and it's the scene where Robin Williams as the English teacher.
Speaker 4: He's got them up on their.
Speaker 2: DISKI yeah, it's a great ending, isn't it.
Speaker 1: What a beautiful movie that is.
Speaker 4: I think that really sits up the tone for her
Speaker 4: empowerment to Moto feel wonderful about herself during this time.
Speaker 1: Can I watch it to and do class notes tomorrow? Okay,
Speaker 1: first hour tomorrows show is class notes. Joe. That's a
Speaker 1: great one. Thank you very much. Let's go to Melanie.
Speaker 1: Tell you I'm good, Melanie, I hope you're well. What
Speaker 1: movie would you recommend?
Speaker 3: It's a classic. It's stand by Me.
Speaker 1: What a great movie. This is an.
Speaker 3: Amazing movie about friendship, life, maturity, perspective that.
Speaker 2: There's that amazing scene at the end where the now
Speaker 2: grown up Richard Dreyfus is the author, and it's one
Speaker 2: of the greatest closing lines of a movie ever. It's
Speaker 2: about friendship. I've got it. I've just had a look
Speaker 2: at now. I never had any friends later on the
Speaker 2: ones I had when I was.
Speaker 1: Twelve Jesus as one. Yeah, it is those friends you had.
Speaker 2: If you had great mates when you were twelve or thirteen,
Speaker 2: those were the closest you'll ever be with your friends
Speaker 2: and back when time was endless, like riding around on
Speaker 2: your bike, so like walking in the bush like they were.
Speaker 1: So again, I'm gonna put in a bit of buzzle going,
Speaker 1: this is as good as it's going to get. You're
Speaker 1: thirteen now, so you peaked last year.
Speaker 2: Those friends that, those friends you love now your best.
Speaker 2: Thees is never going to be like that. Everything is awful.
Speaker 2: I hate my life.
Speaker 1: It's all downhill from here.
Speaker 2: My highlight the weekend was cleaning the deck being yelled
Speaker 2: at by your mum. Let's put on what dreams may
Speaker 2: Let's go to Beck. We've got time for Beck. What
Speaker 2: movie are you recommending that? We watched a movie club.
Speaker 3: It's called The Secret Wife of Waltermitty with Ben Stiller
Speaker 3: in it.
Speaker 1: I've seen this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, a famous book, isn't The Secret Life of Watermitty?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Great book, great movie.
Speaker 1: Now why do you think that one?
Speaker 3: Because it teaches well, basically tells the story of someone
Speaker 3: who goes out of his comfort zone and to not
Speaker 3: be afraid to go and do what he wants to do.
