I'm not 486 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 7: a Paul Kelly hater. Before we get into the review 487 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 7: of this movie. So this big screen adaptation of the 488 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 7: song which is coming to Binge. People can stream it 489 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 7: right now. Look, you might be thinking, is it possible 490 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 7: to make a good movie out of a song? And 491 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 7: the answer is probably not really. There's like the history 492 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 7: of this sort of thing is pretty patchy, to be honest. 493 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 7: There was there was a movie Across the Universe a 494 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 7: few years ago on the Beatles song of the same 495 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 7: name that was terrible. That was terrible. You go back 496 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 7: to the eighties, there was a made for TV movie 497 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 7: called copa Cabana that actually starred that actually starred Barry Manilow. 498 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 7: I don't want you to tell you about that. You 499 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 7: can you can draw your yeah. But but there's also 500 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 7: been some good examples, Like there was a movie, The 501 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 7: Indian Runner, which was Sean Penn's first movie that he directed, 502 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 7: that was based on Bruce Springsteen's Highway Patrolman that was 503 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 7: that was actually pretty good. And there was the horror 504 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 7: movie from the eighties, the Hitcher starring Ruger. 505 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 4: Howard film which which was based on. 506 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 7: Which was which was based on Writers on the Storm. 507 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 2: But I don't know that. 508 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, And so you know there's a killer. 509 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 2: There's a fairly loose connection memo, and I. 510 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 7: Think this is the key, right, Like, if you just 511 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 7: are loosely inspired by the theme, yes, I think I 512 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 7: think you've got a chance. But if you're trying to 513 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 7: do a literal interpretation, I think that's where it comes unstuck. 514 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 7: And that's where they've gone wrong here. So Nick Waterman, 515 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 7: in his debut feature with his real life partner, the 516 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 7: Aria winning singer Megan Washington, have adapted Paul Kelly's song, 517 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 7: but they've done it so literally, like this is all 518 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 7: you need to know. At one point, there's a very slow, 519 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 7: labored shot of a gravy boat being passed around the table, 520 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 7: and I would say, I would say fifty percent of 521 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 7: the film is gravy related. Oh. 522 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 3: I was never convinced that, because the song is three 523 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 3: minutes long, and I was never convinced that it was 524 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 3: going to make a hugely successful transition. 525 00:25:58,480 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 4: Yeah. 526 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 7: Well, A big part, a big part of the problem 527 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 7: is if you actually read the lyrics, which are incredible lyrics, 528 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 7: but there's actually not a lot of exposition. The only 529 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 7: ninety lyric in the film that hints to what has 530 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 7: happened is when the when the Joe character says, I 531 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 7: really screwed up this time, but you don't. But you 532 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 7: don't know anything about what he has done, why he 533 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 7: is in jail, and as a result, the film has 534 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 7: kind of got to fill in the gaps, and so 535 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 7: there's the lyric in the song where it's like, you know, 536 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 7: even I'll even miss Roger because there's no one I 537 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 7: want to fight in here. The film starts with Joe 538 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 7: played by Daniel Henshell from like the incredible but disturbing Australian. 539 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 4: Film Snowtown, very disturbing. 540 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 7: So so he kind of get gets into a fight 541 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 7: with his brother in law Roger at Christmas family get 542 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 7: together and then lands in jail and misses the next Christmas. 543 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 7: That's basically that's basically how the film is set up, 544 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 7: and the majority of the film is set in the 545 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 7: prison and so sort of prison drama, but it's the 546 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 7: sort of prison where you know, some of the inmates 547 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 7: are capable of like pitch perfect singing and they break 548 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 7: out into. 549 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 10: Song oh yeah yeah, and you've got and no one 550 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 10: talks about that, and no one talks about no one 551 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 10: talks about the crimes that they committed because that would 552 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 10: make it harder to see these criminals as lovable rascals. 553 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, Hugo Weaving is in the prison. He's 554 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 7: like this, we don't know what, we don't know why 555 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 7: he's in there. But he's sort of this older inmate 556 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,959 Speaker 7: who takes Joe under his wing and realizes that he's 557 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 7: struggling in prison and says, you know what, why don't 558 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 7: you come and work in the prison kitchen. You can 559 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,719 Speaker 7: teach us about your recipe for gravy. 560 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 4: Bravy. 561 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 7: You can make gravy.
