Speaker 1: Good day. This is Peter Helliah, Welcome to you Ain't
Speaker 1: Seen Nothing Yet the Movie Podcast, where we chat to
Speaker 1: movie lovers about classic or love, the movies that haven't
Speaker 1: quite got around a scene until now. And today's guest
Speaker 1: Dave O'Neil, Why so serious? Can if I tried you?
Speaker 1: The lab.
Speaker 2: Works on wax off happening right now?
Speaker 3: You Ain't seen nothing?
Speaker 1: Journeyman can sometimes sound like a backhanded compliment, but Dave
Speaker 1: O'Neil is a comedy journey man. No one does more
Speaker 1: gigs and travels further than Dave O'Neil for gigs. What
Speaker 1: can be lost, though, and perhaps this is because of
Speaker 1: his affable nature and on stage presence, is how sharp
Speaker 1: and brilliant Dave is. Nobody slays the suburbs like Dave O'Neil.
Speaker 1: If you're putting together a bill of comics in the suburbs,
Speaker 1: Dave O'Neil is the safest pair of hands. Dave's tireless
Speaker 1: work ethic has seen him write two films, take Away
Speaker 1: starring Vince Colossmo, Steve Curry and Rose Byrne and You
Speaker 1: and Your Stupid Mate with Nathan Phillips, Anger Sampson and
Speaker 1: Rachel Hunter. He also starred in two thousand and two
Speaker 1: Is the Nugget alongside Eric Banner, Steve Curry and the
Speaker 1: late great Belinda Emmett.
Speaker 3: He was also a bass.
Speaker 1: Player in the early nineteen eighties for Melbourne Bank Captain Coco.
Speaker 1: Dave is a great bloke to spend time with and
Speaker 1: has a story for almost every occasion. So let's get
Speaker 1: stuck in with Dave O'Neill.
Speaker 2: Hi, it's Dave O'Neil, comedian here and look. I love movies.
Speaker 2: Some of my favorite movies The Blues Brothers.
Speaker 4: This is Jake and Elwood, The Blues Brothers, The Blues Brothers.
Speaker 2: Shit, I love it. I love The Castle, Houn's The Serenity,
Speaker 2: and I also love Gregory's Girl, the Scottish film from
Speaker 2: many years ago.
Speaker 1: She's got a.
Speaker 3: Blass here, Oh, take it off, tick it off.
Speaker 2: But you know, up until last night, I'd never seen Shrek.
Speaker 3: Listen, little donkey, take a look at me? What am
Speaker 3: I really tall?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: I'm an ogrel. Doesn't that bother you?
Speaker 2: Nope?
Speaker 3: Oh, man, I like you.
Speaker 2: What's your name?
Speaker 1: Trek Shrek? Dave O'Neil, welcome to you. Ain't seen nothing yet.
Speaker 1: I need to pick you up on one of your
Speaker 1: favorite films, which was the third film Gregory's Gregory's Girl.
Speaker 1: I remember seeing that on television and I still remember
Speaker 1: a line from it. It's a Scottish film, isn't it. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Bill forsythe directed and he also people might know his
Speaker 2: other famous movie, Local Hero. Did he like a Hero?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: With the Mark Knopfler soundtrack. What's the quote? It's not
Speaker 2: Caracas has ten guys every girl.
Speaker 1: No, No, there's.
Speaker 2: Something in the air tonight. It's not take it off.
Speaker 1: A little bit of fuss for a little bit.
Speaker 2: Of tit, a little bit of We loved it.
Speaker 1: I love to fuss for a little bit of it.
Speaker 2: Maybe some people that don't know. It was a teen
Speaker 2: movie sitting in Scotland and it was about a guy
Speaker 2: who loved a girl who played soccer and also had
Speaker 2: to add extra bonus to someone of my age group.
Speaker 2: We had the lead singer of Altered Images, Claire Grogan
Speaker 2: was in it, who was gorgeous. We loved her. But
Speaker 2: when I lived in a shared house in the eighties,
Speaker 2: we used to watch it. We did on VA just
Speaker 2: we used to watch it over and over and we
Speaker 2: used to quote because there was one guy. Because it
Speaker 2: was all about boys trying to get a girlfriend. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and there was one guy. So he kept saying we
Speaker 2: should go to Caracas. There's ten girls to every gay.
Speaker 2: Ten girls.
Speaker 1: That was around that magical time when you would discover
Speaker 1: movies by this because you're on the couch and Chanale
Speaker 1: and nine happened to be playing Gregory's girl. I did
Speaker 1: the same movies like Mask. You KNOWLTS move discovered that
Speaker 1: share that share, isn't it share? Yeah? Share in their
Speaker 1: exults as Rocky Dennis and Sam Elliott is in that.
Speaker 1: There's a movie called one eight two that I remember
Speaker 1: this gavering.
Speaker 2: Is that a gang movie?
Speaker 1: Yes? Talking about graffiti as well. I think he's almost
Speaker 1: like a Banksy style character. I think.
Speaker 2: See. I remember the movies that I usually love, sci
Speaker 2: fi movies, like The Amiga Man. You even seen The
Speaker 2: Amiga Man as Charlton Heston is the Last Man on Earth? No,
Speaker 2: it has been remade as at Will Smith movie, and
Speaker 2: also Soil and Green, another Charlton Heston sci fi movie,
Speaker 2: They're All and Planet of the Apes was the other
Speaker 2: big one. Yes, I love the original Planet of the Apes.
Speaker 2: I loved it.
Speaker 3: That bright eyes is remarkable.
Speaker 1: He keeps trying to form wounds. You know what they
Speaker 1: see human see human? Do you've never seen Shrek? Now? Why?
Speaker 1: I mean? It can't. Sometimes people will come in and
Speaker 1: they you know, they have a movie that they hadn't seen,
Speaker 1: and I'm shocked that they hadn't seen. Like Judith Lucy
Speaker 1: had never seen Sound of Music and that.
Speaker 2: That shocked me for someone of her age and her sex,
Speaker 2: a female of around that age was that's a mate
Speaker 2: because they weren't been huge when she was a kid,
Speaker 2: and a huge.
Speaker 1: Raise Catholic and Catholicism. You know, she talked a lot
Speaker 1: about the Catholic Guilton and all that. So I thought
Speaker 1: I would have thought, and I've known, you know, Jude
Speaker 1: for for many years. I would have thought, you know,
Speaker 1: if you would have asked, you know, what's one of
Speaker 1: the Jude's favorite what's Jud's favorite film? I may guess
Speaker 1: Sound of Music?
Speaker 2: Did she like it?
Speaker 1: You have to listen to the episode.
Speaker 2: We watched the other night of the Kids, and I said,
Speaker 2: you said, you watch it up until the Nazis turn
Speaker 2: up with little kids, and then you turn it off.
Speaker 1: Well, you gotta forget, like you forget that Nazis are
Speaker 1: involved in that film. Yes, because you're going to think
Speaker 1: about all the music and all that you know.
Speaker 2: But I looked at my wife when that happened, and
Speaker 2: I didn't know where it was in the movie. But
Speaker 2: as soon as she said, what is it, you can't face.
Speaker 2: Someone asked if my teenager picked it up, but he
Speaker 2: didn't pick it up at all.
Speaker 1: So, so did you watch Shrek with your kids?
Speaker 2: One of them? With my I watched it on my phone, actually,
Speaker 2: with my eleven year old.
Speaker 1: It's not how a dreamork intended to get to watch it.
Speaker 1: You watch it on your phone.
Speaker 2: Because I think about Shrek. It came out in what
Speaker 2: two thousand and four, sort of two thousands, it's about
Speaker 2: twenty years old. And I was working at Nova at
Speaker 2: the time with using Kate, and there was a big,
Speaker 2: big guy called Ronnie who programmed the music, and he
Speaker 2: would say to me, Neil, every day, have you seen
Speaker 2: Shrek yet? He looked like Shrek a bit. He couldn't
Speaker 2: believe that I hadn't seen Shrek, and I so annoyed
Speaker 2: me that I never saw. Because you were a comedian,
Speaker 2: you should see Shrek. I went, I haven't seen Shrek.
Speaker 2: You've got to see Shrek. And he would walk around
Speaker 2: with his boat shoes on. Kate used to pick on
Speaker 2: anybody his boat shoes. He was a Queensland. You go,
Speaker 2: I can't, and then you would tell everyone you know,
Speaker 2: Dave hasn't seen Shrek. Kind of annoyed me because I
Speaker 2: was never a big fan of kids movies, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean, Because I remember before I had kids,
Speaker 2: one of my wife's friends took us to see Toy
Speaker 2: Story two and I just went, here's a good movie.
Speaker 2: But I would have rather have seen Rambo War, you know,
Speaker 2: or Terminate or something.
Speaker 1: You're a hard man where I thought.
Speaker 2: But I avoided Shrek, even though I'm a big Mike
Speaker 2: Myers fan. I loved Austin Powers and I love Wayne's World,
Speaker 2: so I do. And I like Eddie Murphy too.
Speaker 1: He's pretty much playing fat bastard as as as Shrek.
Speaker 2: But it's his dad. He's dad Scottish.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, he has a real affinity with British humor.
Speaker 1: I wonder if Ronnie you say he was he was
Speaker 1: he looked like it like Shrek, I wonder. I mean
Speaker 1: Shrek is universally, I mean, it's a huge kind of
Speaker 1: franchise music dream Works. Yeah, the music. I think he's
Speaker 1: playing in Melbourne now, yeah, Lucid, Derek, I think Prince
Speaker 1: Fiona and it's you know, it became almost a face
Speaker 1: of dream Works kind of us it in there, you know,
Speaker 1: there there.
Speaker 2: It was a phenomenon. It was a phenophenomenon. And also
Speaker 2: it went into folklore. So you say that looks a
Speaker 2: bit like Shrek. Everyone knows what you're talking about.
Speaker 1: And I wonder if if I think subconsciously I probably
Speaker 1: had a like men of girth, Yeah, like relate. So
Speaker 1: maybe Ronnie was gonna like you would.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're a fat guy. I'm a fat guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's probably a good point.
Speaker 1: Because consciously I think I related to it on you know,
Speaker 1: on that on that level.
Speaker 2: But I don't think you were a living by yourself.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I certainly make some you know, some departures
Speaker 1: from the character.
Speaker 3: Look at that you want to live in a place
Speaker 3: like that? That would be my home? Oh and it
Speaker 3: is lovely, just beautiful. You know, you are quite a decorator.
Speaker 3: It's amazing what you've done with such a modest budget.
Speaker 3: I like that boulder, that is a naze boulder.
Speaker 1: We're discussing of fair and we just heard a bit
Speaker 1: of it. Hopefully for legally. I like to use it
Speaker 1: smash mouth.
Speaker 2: Hey now yeah, I mean you don't play it, I
Speaker 2: can sing it. You're a rock star, get your game on.
Speaker 2: And that became famous movie sorry that song, and they
Speaker 2: played recently at the Fame and People at the Croxton
Speaker 2: Park Hotel. They did a show their smash Mouth because
Speaker 2: they still tour and apparently before they came on, all
Speaker 2: the crowd was singing in the beer adam, hey, now
Speaker 2: you're a roster. Yeah. And they played that song twice
Speaker 2: in their show. Yeah, so they did. They did that.
Speaker 2: There other big one, I'm a Believer, which is also
Speaker 2: in Shreded, but people forget. They also had a really
Speaker 2: good song called you might as Well be Walking in
Speaker 2: the Sun. Oh yeah, that was smash Mouth. Yes, that's
Speaker 2: but you look up smash Mother. There's been a bit
Speaker 2: of controversy with that lead singer. He's a bit of
Speaker 2: a he's a bit of a maverick. He's had a
Speaker 2: Twitter war with someone I can't remember who it is,
Speaker 2: but he's a bit of a maverick. But that certainly
Speaker 2: launched gave them a Renaissance, that band.
Speaker 1: This soundtrack is I think one of the best uses
Speaker 1: of pop music. Oh in a movie.
Speaker 2: Proclaimers reignited their career too, hallelujah. Oh that's fantas. I'm
Speaker 2: going to download that version. That's John Cale. Yeah, so
Speaker 2: I was listening to going it's not you know, Leonard
Speaker 2: Cohen who wrote the song, And it's also not the
Speaker 2: other bloke who died in the river.
Speaker 1: Jack Buckley.
Speaker 2: God you're here. So he had a very famous version,
Speaker 2: didn't he. Katie Lange, my look alike, also had a
Speaker 2: very famous version. But that's John Cale. So I've got
Speaker 2: a that's a great version.
Speaker 1: Yeah, who is John Cale? John Cale?
Speaker 2: John Carle's from It's the guy from Underground, isn't it?
Speaker 2: Velvet Underground, Underground, Velvet Underground. Don't quote me on that.
Speaker 2: He's a famous singer basically, you know Underground from the
Speaker 2: Velvet Underground, I believe. And also with the Proclaimers, I
Speaker 2: mean I saw them when they toured in the eighties
Speaker 2: and this regnighted their career, so of course they have
Speaker 2: the good song.
Speaker 1: I will walk to yes, because they're walking off to
Speaker 1: the for the mission, the mission, the rescue princess for
Speaker 1: you owner, Oh.
Speaker 2: Can let me get the strip?
Speaker 3: You're gonna go fight a dragon and rescue a princess,
Speaker 3: just so far quite to give you back a swamp
Speaker 3: which you only don't have. Of course you feel it
Speaker 3: full of freaks in the first Prince? Is that about rank?
Speaker 2: You know what?
Speaker 3: Maybe there's a good reason donkeys shouldn't talk.
Speaker 2: Do you have a tissue or something? Because I'm making
Speaker 2: a mess. Just the word parfee made me start sla.
Speaker 1: Did you like it? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I liked it. My eleven year old said there was
Speaker 2: too much romance because when you look at it, he's
Speaker 2: basically a eleven year old boy boy. Yeah, my daughter,
Speaker 2: who's thirteen, she would have loved it. I reckon, but
Speaker 2: she was a busy.
Speaker 1: But there's only so many people you can cram around
Speaker 1: a phone.
Speaker 2: I know it's terrible, isn't it? And I thought it
Speaker 2: was really good. It's a bit slow, though, which compared
Speaker 2: to movies these days. You see, Well, have you seen
Speaker 2: an animated film these days?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Watched Hotel Transylvania the other day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're quite quick.
Speaker 2: Those movies. Whereas Shrek's got a favorit of pathos to
Speaker 2: it which I really like.
Speaker 1: There is there is some pathos. Absolutely, it's got a
Speaker 1: big heart, Shrek. It's what I like about it is Shrek.
Speaker 1: It's like and this is going back to the all
Speaker 1: Star song, and why I think that's such a perfect way.
Speaker 1: It's obviously contrasting. He's saying he's an all star, but
Speaker 1: he's actually this, you know, he's he's an ogre living
Speaker 1: in a swamp. But that's all he wants, and that's
Speaker 1: and that's he feels like an all star. He's as
Speaker 1: happy as he's ever going to be. And most protagonists,
Speaker 1: and we'll get onto the fact that you've written movies
Speaker 1: as well, but most protagonists they want something, Yeah, they
Speaker 1: want something. They want their life to be better, and
Speaker 1: or they think what they want is going to make
Speaker 1: their life better. Shrek doesn't actually want that happy. He
Speaker 1: wants everything to stay the same. Yeah, which is an
Speaker 1: interesting place to start, and then obviously it gets thrust
Speaker 1: upon him. Yes, all right, Oger, I'll make you a deal.
Speaker 3: Go on this quest for me, and I'll give you your
Speaker 3: swamp back exactly the way it.
Speaker 1: Was down to the last slime covered toadstool and the
Speaker 1: squatters as good as gone.
Speaker 2: You know, spoiler all that though, I kept looking at
Speaker 2: Princess Fiona because I'd seen her obviously as an ogre.
Speaker 2: Yeah where so I knew that was going to happen,
Speaker 2: so I couldn't imagine what it'd be like seeing without
Speaker 2: knowing that would have been a big surprise.
Speaker 1: Absolutely. I remember watching O. I saw it in the
Speaker 1: cinema because unlike you, I didn't need to go see
Speaker 1: Rambo to you know, to reinforce my masculine of it.
Speaker 1: I was comfortable.
Speaker 2: Have you seen a child's feel like?
Speaker 1: I remember seeing Toy Story in the cinema, which was
Speaker 1: like the first one, you know, this one's very good.
Speaker 1: This was dream where it's going. We need to get
Speaker 1: in the game here because you know, Disney or Pixar
Speaker 1: are doing this in Disney, you know, doing their movies,
Speaker 1: and it's a bit of an anti Disney movie.
Speaker 2: Shrek Shrek. Yeah, any money that he's walking around Disneyland
Speaker 2: as we speak, there'd be a Shrek and a Princess Fiona.
Speaker 2: Surely if they they don't den.
Speaker 1: No, Disney don't know this. So this is a very
Speaker 1: this is a very anti Disney because the guy left, Yes,
Speaker 1: Kamerberg and Eisner had a big blue at Disney, and
Speaker 1: then Katzenberg went off and DreamWorks and this is like
Speaker 1: even stuff like you know, I mean even like this
Speaker 1: using pop music and the soundtrack. It's very kind of
Speaker 1: like you know, Disney is all about beautiful, lush kind
Speaker 1: of score rosers. Yeah, and they and their own own music,
Speaker 1: and this is very much you know, pop music.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: And he's he's even talked that Lord Farquhar is based
Speaker 1: on Aer.
Speaker 2: He was funny. I like, Lord Farquhar, you're a monster.
Speaker 1: I'm not a monster.
Speaker 4: Here you are you and the rest of that fairy
Speaker 4: tale crash poisoning my perfect world.
Speaker 2: I'll tell me where are the others? I liked Eddie
Speaker 2: Murphy too, as a donkey, very funny.
Speaker 1: It's his best performance.
Speaker 3: Schreck what it's a compliment.
Speaker 2: Better out than in. I always say, there's.
Speaker 3: No way to be here in front of a princess.
Speaker 1: Thanks.
Speaker 3: She's as nasty as you are.
Speaker 2: Very good.
Speaker 1: It's truly. Have you ever done voice over work?
Speaker 2: Good question? Oh, I mean I've done a lot. Not
Speaker 2: for cartoons, no, no, only I was the voice of
Speaker 2: Col's Express for four years. Get down at Cole's Express.
Speaker 2: Milk at two dollars. Yeah, I did that for a
Speaker 2: long time.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And also I was the voice of Super. They say,
Speaker 2: I've got a very good normal voice. You do have
Speaker 2: a very normal, normal sounding voice. Yeah, yeah, so I've
Speaker 2: done Yeah, I was a voice of Super. I was
Speaker 2: the voice of Bell Canton, New South Wales. I've got
Speaker 2: all the big ones. But I would love to do
Speaker 2: a cartoon. My audition for The Thongs to play the
Speaker 2: dad in the Thongs, which was an Australian cartoon where
Speaker 2: Mark Mitchell got the role that I was.
Speaker 1: You're right with a dad role.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I would love to do it. But but
Speaker 2: you know, there's a limited opportunity I think in Australia
Speaker 2: for cartoon.
Speaker 1: Well occasionally what they do, I've done it once that
Speaker 1: I can remember, for Stalks, the movie.
Speaker 2: Oh you did Dad? Yeah, great, like they won an
Speaker 2: Australian Yes.
Speaker 1: They said, what they often do is they have some
Speaker 1: a handful of roles that they are happy to offer
Speaker 1: to local people in various markets. Okay, right, so I
Speaker 1: wasn't in the studio of Jennifer Aniston and whoever else
Speaker 1: was in that movie, and they said these are the
Speaker 1: ones you can pick so they show you the movie.
Speaker 1: You know, they had about six characters I could pick,
Speaker 1: and I probably I picked the coyotes, thinking I was
Speaker 1: going to be like the ones that actually kind of talk,
Speaker 1: but they they're not the ones that are often because
Speaker 1: they were like you know, Jordan Peel and you know,
Speaker 1: and so they were going to recast that, so I
Speaker 1: but it was actually the mob of cote. So I
Speaker 1: like the mob of coyotes or wolves whatever they were.
Speaker 1: And but even doing that it was tricky.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it'd be hard, really hard.
Speaker 1: So whenever you know, I see really good voice work,
Speaker 1: like Eddie Murphy, it's it's really good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, incredible, Yeah, really good. To bring it to life
Speaker 2: like that is really good.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: But you know the Shrek story, that was interesting because
Speaker 2: it was a very unknown book and these kids, this
Speaker 2: executive's kids used to read it at night. They used
Speaker 2: to borrow from the library. They didn't even own it.
Speaker 2: And I saw an interview with these kids once you see,
Speaker 2: I'm an expert on Shrek. They I had never seen
Speaker 2: until last night, and they kept telling their dad were
Speaker 2: reading this really funny book, and the dad bought the
Speaker 2: rights and then yeah, I got produced it's a pretty
Speaker 2: interesting story that these kids told their dad about it.
Speaker 1: Well, that's how American Idol got made because Elizabeth Murdoch
Speaker 1: had been in the UK and said, there's this cool
Speaker 1: show called pop idol whether they call it over there, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and he ended up making American Idol. So listen to
Speaker 1: your kids. What did you know of Shrek? Like, what
Speaker 1: were the things that you What do you know about
Speaker 1: being in the ether? Well?
Speaker 2: No, I knew it was about an ugly guy ogre
Speaker 2: and I knew. I knew that Mike Marnin said the
Speaker 2: voice and was Eddie Murthy as a donkey, and there
Speaker 2: was a princess involved. That's all I knew about it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: because I was I didn't know. One of the things.
Speaker 2: One of the things that my son like was all
Speaker 2: the different fairy tale characters in it, yeah, which is
Speaker 2: something you do see in other animated movies. You know,
Speaker 2: there's another one that we will what's it called Not
Speaker 2: Over the Hedge, High Jinks or something like that, which
Speaker 2: has got a lot of the young fairy tale characters
Speaker 2: reappearing because hoodwink, that's it because they must be able
Speaker 2: to copyright. So anyone could put the three blind mice. Yeah,
Speaker 2: because Barney myself going, who's that? That's a three blind mics. Oh,
Speaker 2: that's Pinocchio, you know. And so that was fun. That
Speaker 2: was a really good I didn't know that that was funny.
Speaker 3: What have you got Wood, I'm.
Speaker 1: Not a puppet, I'm a real boys.
Speaker 2: The Possessed tie take it away. I liked how Farkwhi's
Speaker 2: Kingdom was like really sterile, and yes, no one was
Speaker 2: having fun, and I liked that sort of social message
Speaker 2: to it.
Speaker 1: But that was also kind of a bit of a dig.
Speaker 1: He set up like a disney Land. Yeah, but nobody's there.
Speaker 1: There's another little little dick from from DreamWorks and you know,
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Katzenberg probably specifically. But this came back to Eddie
Speaker 1: Murphy and casting. You got Cameron Dans as Princess Fiona,
Speaker 1: you got Mike Myers playing Shrek, but originally it was
Speaker 1: going to be Chris Farley.
Speaker 2: Oh and did he die?
Speaker 1: He died, which made him unavailable.
Speaker 2: Because he looked a bit like he looks at me, like, yeah, Shrek.
Speaker 1: And now I was watching it knowing this because I
Speaker 1: watched it again this week too, you know, because you're
Speaker 1: committed to the podcast. I'm committed to this podcast the
Speaker 1: things I do.
Speaker 2: Hope you didn't watch it on your phone, like I know,
Speaker 2: I watched.
Speaker 1: On a big screen TV. That's how the filmmakers like it. Well,
Speaker 1: they prefer to watch it in the cinema. But but
Speaker 1: I've seen it in the cinema. I was really imagine
Speaker 1: Crish Farley and I couldn't because I mean, it's become
Speaker 1: so iconic a Scottish accent.
Speaker 2: Well, they didn't write as a Scottish accent. I had
Speaker 2: an interview with Mike Myers and he said he just
Speaker 2: turned up and said, I'm going to do it a
Speaker 2: Scottish Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well I think even he tried it as a Canadian.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't. Yeah, because it does seem to be
Speaker 2: said in England. It seems to me to be that
Speaker 2: all the soldiers and stuff are English, yes, and the
Speaker 2: villagers are English.
Speaker 1: Farquhar is English, and mean you think Castle's a kind of.
Speaker 2: Robin Hood's in there, but Robin Wood appears to be
Speaker 2: French or something.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's an interesting.
Speaker 2: Choice, asterable shitty for I am your savior and I
Speaker 2: am just killing you from this green.
Speaker 3: Beast.
Speaker 1: We actually have on a Coo Cup on YouTube Chris
Speaker 1: Filey's audition. Uh, this is Chris Filey auditioning, for sure.
Speaker 3: It's nothing like a fire and a noble romantic mission
Speaker 3: to warm the cockles of your heart.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like my cockles room temperature, Thank you very much.
Speaker 3: Hey, if you're not doing this for cockle warman, why
Speaker 3: are you doing it?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Simple fart Watt gets his princess.
Speaker 3: I get what I want, which is now, come on,
Speaker 3: what do you want? I don't have time to set
Speaker 3: it to music. Oh, this is another one of those
Speaker 3: onion things. No, this is one of those drop it
Speaker 3: and leave me alone things. Well, why don't you want
Speaker 3: to talk about it?
Speaker 2: Why do you want to talk about it?
Speaker 3: Why you answering the question with a question?
Speaker 2: Why are you asking questions? I don't want to answer?
Speaker 3: Why are you blocking?
Speaker 2: I'm not blocking?
Speaker 1: Then?
Speaker 3: Why do you have problems expressing your wants?
Speaker 2: I don't. I want you to shut up? So it's
Speaker 2: pretty good. Thought, it's pretty good.
Speaker 1: It's pretty good. It's funny.
Speaker 2: You could watch that.
Speaker 1: You kind of go, I can't imagine anyone else doing it,
Speaker 1: and then you listen, You're gonna go, Okay, I can't
Speaker 1: I still think if Chris Farley and Mike Myers were
Speaker 1: down to the last two and I was I was
Speaker 1: casting it, I think I would still go Mike my
Speaker 1: I think the Scottish accent. I think the Scottish accent
Speaker 1: with a like the African American sas that Eddie brings
Speaker 1: to it is a really fun combination.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting. I love Chris Farley.
Speaker 1: And then when Chris Farley was attached, Princess Jana was
Speaker 1: supposed to be played by Janine Garoffalo.
Speaker 2: Oh great, which is a.
Speaker 1: Completely different way of thinking. Cameron Diaz was very good,
Speaker 1: though she was, but I reckon it's also that kind
Speaker 1: of Jeanne Gruffalo as a princess is also that anti
Speaker 1: Disney kind of feeling.
Speaker 2: Especially back then. She's quite alternative.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and quite kind of a dead pan. He said
Speaker 1: that you thought the film moves quite slowly, but the
Speaker 1: storytelling is I think is incredible.
Speaker 2: Storytelling is pretty good. Actually, Barney my Son made an
Speaker 2: observation that the thing with the dragon didn't last very long.
Speaker 2: He wanted to fight with the dragon to go longer.
Speaker 2: But I reckon that was perfect to get in get
Speaker 2: because who wants to see all that. You know, I
Speaker 2: prefer the story being told, so I actually thought the
Speaker 2: storytelling was very simple, quite simple, but good.
Speaker 1: Everything's really clear. And the good thing about when there's
Speaker 1: a movie about a mission, you know you can actually
Speaker 1: just state what he yeah, what the movie's about.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I saw Jimunji whatever the latest one is.
Speaker 2: And it's not dissimilar in that they go on a mission,
Speaker 2: but there's distractions along the way, and so there's a
Speaker 2: whole horn of monkeys or baboons. Okay, right, we got
Speaker 2: over that, And like this, they check in robin Hood.
Speaker 2: Why they checking robin Hood. I suppose it's like just
Speaker 2: to show her strength in doing kung fu on robin Hood.
Speaker 2: But also it's a fun distraction because of robin Hood.
Speaker 2: Even though it's not a musical, he sings a song
Speaker 2: like Robin Hood sings a song Jaunty Little, which was
Speaker 2: quite good.
Speaker 3: I thought, still from the Rich and Kieth to the Navy.
Speaker 3: But I'm not pretty.
Speaker 1: I rischd you pretty Dove Sills, madam.
Speaker 2: I don't like kids movies where they sing musical like
Speaker 2: fro Again. I haven't seen Frozen Frozen, how.
Speaker 1: Do you have? Who would have been what maybe eight
Speaker 1: when it came out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a lot of pressure.
Speaker 1: But she Frozen. I've seen Frozen three boy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, that's that's funny, isn't it. Yeah, she's I
Speaker 2: mean they do talk about it. She may have seen
Speaker 2: it since at school or something like that, because you know,
Speaker 2: when it gets the end of the year, they're always
Speaker 2: banging on videos in the hall of the kids. And
Speaker 2: I do want to see Frozen out because I'm I'm
Speaker 2: a big fan of Olive. Who's the guy who's Olive?
Speaker 1: Just Dad?
Speaker 2: Yeah, because he's in that Avenue five which I've been
Speaker 2: watching the new science fiction.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen that are funny.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I really like And he's very funny and he's good.
Speaker 2: I didn't know who he was. I looked him up
Speaker 2: and I said, he's O the who again. I know
Speaker 2: he's funny in Frozen's he must be the comedy relief
Speaker 2: is he in? Yes, Frozen?
Speaker 1: Right, Yes, he's almost a donkey Frozen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's very funny, that guy.
Speaker 1: He's great. He was also in a series which only
Speaker 1: lasted sadly, one series with Billy Crystal, but they played
Speaker 1: themselves really dried. They were paired together to do a
Speaker 1: sketch comedy show behind the scenes. It's actually it's really fun.
Speaker 1: I was disappointed only got one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I haven't seen that.
Speaker 1: I forget the name of it, but it'll be easy,
Speaker 1: easy to find.
Speaker 2: I don't really like movies where they start singing.
Speaker 1: But couldn't you have gotten frozen this wack that then
Speaker 1: walked their way? You could have done that. But it's like, no,
Speaker 1: what you watchn't take away again?
Speaker 2: Take Away mine.
Speaker 1: I made a film I Love You Too, and you
Speaker 1: made a takeaway and you and YouTube and mate and
Speaker 1: I was in the Nugget and you're in the I
Speaker 1: didn't write, but a lot of people remember The Nugget. Yes,
Speaker 1: Nuggat was a great one for eg Banner, Stephen Curry
Speaker 1: and Stephen Curry playing.
Speaker 2: Three council workers.
Speaker 1: Wookie. What was Curry's name?
Speaker 2: He was Wookie? Ye I was. I always forget my name,
Speaker 2: but people come up to the street and say it
Speaker 2: to you, and what are you talking about? Oh, I
Speaker 2: can't believe it's what is my sue?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I just forget. And I also people come from quote
Speaker 2: lines from like I don't know what the finger of God.
Speaker 2: I'm like who's this freak And they're like, oh, that's
Speaker 2: from the Narget right, especially in the country because it's
Speaker 2: about three country men and it's set in Mudgie where
Speaker 2: we filmed it. And you said, well, people I find
Speaker 2: if you go to Mildura or Wagga, I love it.
Speaker 2: Because you still love it.
Speaker 1: You happened had the premiere in Mudget, didn't you.
Speaker 2: That's where the guy driving has said, people in Mudgie
Speaker 2: are gonna love this movie. I don't know about people
Speaker 2: in Dubbo. I don't know how. And he was right,
Speaker 2: like a lot of the move those movies. I had
Speaker 2: great expectations for it, but didn't do as well as
Speaker 2: what they thought.
Speaker 1: Yes, I remember seeing In fact, I think the Nuggets.
Speaker 2: Did well on DVD. Yeah, the DVD's on standard moment.
Speaker 1: Back then it would have been even a bigger market
Speaker 1: than it is now. I know. I love you too.
Speaker 1: We did. We did reason me well at the box
Speaker 1: office domestically.
Speaker 2: So, but then we had taken five or six million.
Speaker 1: Or some which there wasn't quite that much as like three.
Speaker 2: The Nugget was about two or three Yeah, nothing.
Speaker 1: Which is it's almost that mid level of success in
Speaker 1: a while to put it in context.
Speaker 2: The castle was ten eleven million, boy eleven million dollars,
Speaker 2: as Nick will tell you, but the dish was like
Speaker 2: twenty or something like that.
Speaker 1: Red Dog was close to thirty as well.
Speaker 2: So you like, a girl's done really well, which is.
Speaker 1: Really well, really well. I love the square l edgend
Speaker 1: of boys and that, like, yeah, it took like hundreds
Speaker 1: of thousands of dollars. It was, so it was It's
Speaker 1: such a tough thing if you can, to be honest,
Speaker 1: if you can get over the millionairee, if you know,
Speaker 1: you've done it right, and you probably get to make
Speaker 1: another film and then you know to get the three.
Speaker 1: But we did really well as well on and this
Speaker 1: is you know, years after the Nuggets, this is like
Speaker 1: twenty ten, we did a really we had a really
Speaker 1: good DVD kind of life as well, which is actually
Speaker 1: it was more significant when I saw the figures and
Speaker 1: the numbers than I thought. But so because the Nugget
Speaker 1: was also Blinda Rammett, the wonderful Late Blinda Rammett. It
Speaker 1: was awesome and directed by Bill Bannett.
Speaker 2: Who Billnett Kissed.
Speaker 1: Me Kill Me, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was a
Speaker 1: great film, Yes, fantastic film and Eric Banner. So just
Speaker 1: before he went off and became.
Speaker 2: He'd already done he'd already done Chopper. Yes, he'd already
Speaker 2: done black Hawk down right. But while we were on
Speaker 2: the set of The Nugget he got off of The
Speaker 2: Hulk because he came out of his went I'm betting off,
Speaker 2: I'm going to be the Hulk the Hulk, like, what's
Speaker 2: going on? He hadn't mentioned anything about it. So yeah,
Speaker 2: he went off and did The Hulk, and so, yeah,
Speaker 2: he just wanted to do this. He wanted to do
Speaker 2: an Australian He only had very little kids at that stage.
Speaker 2: I had no kids and he had very little children.
Speaker 2: So he wanted to do a movie in Australia. They're
Speaker 2: going really well with Bill and say, he's just he
Speaker 2: wanted to do a movie that his kids could see, basically,
Speaker 2: which is yes. So yeah, it was good fun doing then.
Speaker 2: It was great fun being up a mudgy filming. We
Speaker 2: had a great We had a great time, a great time.
Speaker 1: And you also worked with roseburn inway.
Speaker 2: Take away, Yeah, I don't think she mentions that on
Speaker 2: a CV anymore. I I have funny as this though,
Speaker 2: So takeaway for people that I know. It's about two
Speaker 2: fish and chip shops that compete against each other, because
Speaker 2: occasionally you do still see it. You see chicken shops
Speaker 2: next door to and one was run by Stephen Curry,
Speaker 2: one was wrung by Vince Colossimo. And then a Burgies
Speaker 2: opens up, which like a McDonald's franchise, and they have
Speaker 2: to compete.
Speaker 1: Well, wasn't a Donald's.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know. And so and I
Speaker 2: played the butcher, which was just a role we wrote
Speaker 2: because when we got to when we found the location,
Speaker 2: there was a butcher in between these two shops, and
Speaker 2: so the director's like, we should, you should, We'll put
Speaker 2: in a butcher character, just you know. I go about
Speaker 2: four lines. And anyway, the butcher was his great old
Speaker 2: Italian guy and him and his son just works in
Speaker 2: Alphington and which is a northern subeers of Melbourne, in
Speaker 2: this classic strip shop. And anyway, the butcher was really
Speaker 2: nice and he got to know and Rosebyn. She was
Speaker 2: very friendly with all the shopkeepers and stuff. And anyway,
Speaker 2: I went to the butcher's retirement party the other day
Speaker 2: because I live around there. And the guy goes, you
Speaker 2: gotta come and speak at Al's what's his name the
Speaker 2: butcher's retirement party at the bowling Club. And so I
Speaker 2: went and told the story about you know, and and
Speaker 2: his son goes, oh, yeah, Roseburn dropped in the other day. Yeah,
Speaker 2: she turned up with her husband, Bobby what's his name,
Speaker 2: because she's married to Bobby. Yeah, yeah, from absolutely he's
Speaker 2: a from Man's a man. Yeah, And I'm like, you're
Speaker 2: kidding me. So they've got into Melbourne and she's gone,
Speaker 2: let's go visit the set of Takeaway and see the Butcher.
Speaker 2: Well she didn't drop in or call me, So how
Speaker 2: funn is that?
Speaker 1: Well? We that is the Rose. Rose is brilliant and
Speaker 1: I around when we made I Love You Too. She
Speaker 1: was going out with Brendan cow who was the lead.
Speaker 1: So Brendan kept on saying to me, you have a part,
Speaker 1: like a part of Rose like she wants to you know,
Speaker 1: she was getting pretty big at this stage.
Speaker 2: And well she did two hands and yeah, and that
Speaker 2: was she made.
Speaker 1: She's making damages, you know. I don't know why she
Speaker 1: did close.
Speaker 2: I don't know why she didn't take Away. She just
Speaker 2: had a Takeaways.
Speaker 1: I want to get back to Takeaway. Takeaway is a
Speaker 1: funny film.
Speaker 2: You know, there's a big floor in it. Though in
Speaker 2: take Away the end, the ending is a f so
Speaker 2: for people that don't know. At the end there's a
Speaker 2: tow truck driver character and he who the Burgie's away
Speaker 2: on the back of his truck. Now, when me and
Speaker 2: Marco Tool, the other writer wrote it, we envisioned that
Speaker 2: it would be a quick thing where he would just
Speaker 2: rip it down and tow it down the street. And
Speaker 2: I remember Eric Banner reading it because he was going
Speaker 2: to through the Vince Colossimo role. But then he became
Speaker 2: very famous and said no thanks.
Speaker 1: And implausibility of.
Speaker 2: You can't how can you do this ending? You can't
Speaker 2: do the ending? I went, I will be right, and
Speaker 2: then when I saw how they did it, I just
Speaker 2: went on no, because I remember who was Jim Shenbry
Speaker 2: wrote in the you know, I don't know we take
Speaker 2: notice of critics, but went they're right. He said, this
Speaker 2: is one of the funniest Australian film in years, except
Speaker 2: for the ending, which is true. The ending is terrible.
Speaker 1: I think I remember going going, oh, okay, that's yeah.
Speaker 1: I was really wanted to like and I did. I
Speaker 1: wasn't you like that?
Speaker 2: Until the last half an hour, like, yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, to be honest, the last you know, and you know,
Speaker 1: it's been once. I've watched it. I probably did send
Speaker 1: it twice.
Speaker 2: Watch it on your phone. I reckon it was.
Speaker 1: We actually made it to be watched on fines.
Speaker 2: For twenty years, but yeah, it was.
Speaker 1: That was the only up until that point. It's a
Speaker 1: really it's a really funny film. But yeah, so I
Speaker 1: kind of I thought Brendan was kind of joking. I
Speaker 1: thought Rose is not going to come and do it,
Speaker 1: you know, a cameo, but he kept on asking. I thought, okay,
Speaker 1: well so you're serious, and she goes, yeah, Rose came
Speaker 1: to set one day. She were hanging out, you know.
Speaker 1: She goes, he got a roll for me or not?
Speaker 1: And I was like, are you serious, like and she says, yeah,
Speaker 1: I like really wondering, I really want you, you know.
Speaker 1: So she played. We gave her a role that was
Speaker 1: vansta Hosky, who's now getting nominated all the time for
Speaker 1: a Handmaid's Tale.
Speaker 2: She's fantastic.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's brilliant. Yeah, she's great. And Peter Dinklind was
Speaker 1: in as well. That was the last one he did
Speaker 1: before Game of Thrones. And so Rose is in the film.
Speaker 1: She in the back of a cab. We kind of
Speaker 1: dressed her up kind of anime, kind of in this anime,
Speaker 1: but we had to kind of let an actress kind
Speaker 1: of go to kind.
Speaker 2: Of been replaced by Yeah, we made it roll a
Speaker 2: bit bigger.
Speaker 1: So it wasn't like a you know, huge role, but
Speaker 1: and Rose kind of made it. She's just like swearing
Speaker 1: her little heart out in the back seat and little
Speaker 1: Ron Jacobson's in the front seat coppying it all. But
Speaker 1: she's an absolute delight. And around that time, she was
Speaker 1: just starting maybe to get in the comedy or wanted
Speaker 1: to get into the comedy. And she'd made I think
Speaker 1: a film with Judd Apatao, her first one that she made.
Speaker 1: I forget it was maybe it was Getting to the
Speaker 1: Greek or maybe it was something in before that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I was lucky enough to have dinner with Judd Apatao.
Speaker 2: Are you talking to the foot, didn't you?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, the paper, But I had dinner with him.
Speaker 1: I think we've rove and we're kind with chatting about Rose,
Speaker 1: and he just was saying how funny she was, and
Speaker 1: I was chatting to the Brendan and so Judd was
Speaker 1: saying how funny, like how hilarious Rosen because it hadn't
Speaker 1: come out yet, and and Rose was actually in the
Speaker 1: cardign she was in the car. She was really she
Speaker 1: was excited to hear you know that, you know how
Speaker 1: funny Judd thought she was, and then she made like.
Speaker 2: Hilario fantastic.
Speaker 1: It's almost weird to think that she started. She started
Speaker 1: almost like in these like little often like grim little dramas.
Speaker 1: Two Hands, Yeah, I mean two Hands is an absolutely classic.
Speaker 1: So take Away. People should watch Takeaway and you know,
Speaker 1: I don't have to.
Speaker 2: Imagine a different ending and and tweet me or send me,
Speaker 2: but what you do.
Speaker 1: People should come up with an alternative ending to take Away.
Speaker 1: Pitch your alternative endings. I'm going to set up an
Speaker 1: email for the show.
Speaker 2: Well, it's interesting because you don't see many Australian comedies
Speaker 2: that must these days, because much back in when we
Speaker 2: made them, it was easy to get money for this.
Speaker 2: It was still a very hard process, but there was
Speaker 2: The Macquarie Bank funded a lot of films. They funded
Speaker 2: a lot of those films back then.
Speaker 1: I've been told that the films there after now film
Speaker 1: that kind of play to older audiences.
Speaker 2: I'll write like a girl.
Speaker 1: Yes, the story, it's strange storytelling, you know, but play
Speaker 1: a bit old sapphires. Yeah wrong, let's show off the
Speaker 1: country a little bit. Or they'll tell a well known
Speaker 1: Australian story. They're not necessarily have the genre films, but.
Speaker 2: When you're seeing Australian comedy, I still love it. I
Speaker 2: still you know. That's why I said The Other Castle
Speaker 2: is one of my favorite movies. One of my other
Speaker 2: favorite movies when I was a teenager was The Adventures
Speaker 2: of Bas Mackenzie, which is Barry Crockert. Barry Humphries wrote it,
Speaker 2: and it's about this. Barry Crocker plays is Ossie Bogan.
Speaker 2: It was a Bogan before Bogan's were even a thing.
Speaker 2: Going to London where he meets the Queen and you know,
Speaker 2: it's a farce. It's very funny though urinates on a
Speaker 2: TV set. He gets asked to go on a talk
Speaker 2: show and it's very funny movie.
Speaker 1: I always I think I reviewed that for they must
Speaker 1: have re released it and I reviewed it for a
Speaker 1: live many years ago, and it's like and I've never
Speaker 1: watched it, so it was it was.
Speaker 2: It's from the seventies seventies.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you mentioned also Blues Brothers as one of
Speaker 1: the brothers.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love the Brutes. I remember I saw Blues
Speaker 2: Brothers of the movies when it came out because I
Speaker 2: was in high school. And then a guy got a
Speaker 2: it won't even been a beta copy. He had a
Speaker 2: very early video record, and we will go around to
Speaker 2: his house and watch it over and over. And now
Speaker 2: with my kids, I've got teenagers and eleven year old
Speaker 2: they love it. They love the Blues Brothers. It's still funny. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's still funny. It's got good music, there's good dancing,
Speaker 2: and there's good car crashes in car chases.
Speaker 1: There's a great book that I'm just a fish reading
Speaker 1: called Wild and Crazy Guys.
Speaker 2: I love that book.
Speaker 1: I read they read it. Yeah, and that basically tracks
Speaker 1: that period of America. Murphy Chase. You know a lot
Speaker 1: of I said in Live guys who became superstars, and
Speaker 1: that gets it. That gets a good mob.
Speaker 2: People still still quote the Blues Brothers. You're still you know,
Speaker 2: this place has got everything. Yeah, that's the Blues Brothers.
Speaker 2: Orange orange web, orange web.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's an orange web, orange web, orange web three
Speaker 1: orange webs.
Speaker 2: Had other more as few ones like you know, I
Speaker 2: fucking hate Illinois Nazis.
Speaker 1: I must say. Bluesbrothers has come up a couple of times.
Speaker 1: I chat the people about it.
Speaker 2: You blasphem me. You know I was it?
Speaker 1: Never? It was never a film on my absolute favorites.
Speaker 1: For some reason, I think I saw because I think
Speaker 1: I saw it in bits. I think I saw bits
Speaker 1: and pieces of it.
Speaker 2: And it's also an age thing too, I reckon when
Speaker 2: films are when you're absolutely your absolute peak of being influenced,
Speaker 2: when you're at senior high school in first years of
Speaker 2: union work or whatever. It's that kind of period. Like
Speaker 2: there was also Revenge of the Nerds came out in
Speaker 2: like eighty four eighty I love that eighty four eighty five.
Speaker 1: I remember Mate telling me he wanted to go down
Speaker 1: to the Greensboro Bolk Store to rent Revenge of the Nerds,
Speaker 1: this new movie. And I didn't even know what there
Speaker 1: were nerds meant, I thought it was a horror film.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, nerds weren't a thing. Because my son going
Speaker 2: to me, were you a nerd of high school? I said,
Speaker 2: it wasn't a thing. There weren't nerds. There but they
Speaker 2: weren't called nerds. Yeah, there was not. It was until
Speaker 2: that movie came out, especially in Australia. Nerds were not
Speaker 2: a thing. They weren't a group of people really well,
Speaker 2: I mean there's there was still like a computer club
Speaker 2: at school, so they were nerves, but they didn't call
Speaker 2: themselves nerds.
Speaker 1: Who's your favorite and character and inveng In probably Booger.
Speaker 2: And from the Lambda Mood Team, Dudley Dawson, Bogger Bogger.
Speaker 2: I loved Animal Houses, right, yeah, all those movies from
Speaker 2: from back then.
Speaker 1: They kind of kicked off the whole National Lampoons thing, didn't, But.
Speaker 2: You watch some of them now. Like so I'm always
Speaker 2: looking for movies to watch with the kids, Like I
Speaker 2: love grandhog Day, which is I'm sure people mentioned that,
Speaker 2: but you watch it now. It's a little bit dodgy
Speaker 2: in the me too generation.
Speaker 1: It's there are so many it's.
Speaker 2: Very very dodgy. It's like see the Blues Brothers is
Speaker 2: the Bluesmo has got no sort of sleaziness or sexual
Speaker 2: sort of stuff, whereas Grand Old Day is all about
Speaker 2: when he finally sleeps with Annie McDowell, everything comes good.
Speaker 2: This is him trying to win her over for the
Speaker 2: whole movie.
Speaker 1: Do you find yourself watching movies now and sometimes that
Speaker 1: leaps out at you. Sometimes your mind dis goes there
Speaker 1: about the say let's got it sexual politics now, and
Speaker 1: then me too, and kind of going, oh, wow, that
Speaker 1: that I've never thought about. There's even a moment I
Speaker 1: was watching Heat because Dave Thornton hasn't seen Heat, so
Speaker 1: he hasn't seen Heat. One of the greatest crime movies
Speaker 1: of all time. This is a part where Amy Brennerman's
Speaker 1: character Edie is trying to get away from de Niro
Speaker 1: and he kind of like, you know, he's basically chasing
Speaker 1: her and basically you know, she's kind of crawling through
Speaker 1: the reads and and he kind of like grabs her
Speaker 1: and he kind of like holds it, you know, and
Speaker 1: that we've seen that scene in many movies, and she
Speaker 1: eventually coccumbs and she's you know, kind of stays with them,
Speaker 1: And yeah, it does go to a point where in
Speaker 1: a scene or two later where DeNiro is saying to her,
Speaker 1: you know, you can say or you can go, and
Speaker 1: it's your choice. So that kind of helps direct it.
Speaker 1: But that kind of scene the often see movies where
Speaker 1: where men basically in prison. Oh yeah, a woman.
Speaker 2: But we talk about Gregory's Girl. I mean, how DoD
Speaker 2: you with that?
Speaker 1: I don't think they're making making Gregory's Girl at the time.
Speaker 1: Soon there's a scene where there'll be a lot more fuss.
Speaker 1: I have a little bit of ti.
Speaker 2: There's a there's a scene where they all go, the
Speaker 2: boys and the teenage boys go and sit on this
Speaker 2: hill with pinoculars and look at a nurse's quarter and
Speaker 2: and there's a woman with a bra on and he's
Speaker 2: and they're just going to take it off. Take it off,
Speaker 2: take it off, take it off.
Speaker 1: She's got a brassier.
Speaker 3: Oh, take it off, take it off.
Speaker 1: Transmit teller to cheek off.
Speaker 2: Her brak off your brazier.
Speaker 4: Concentrate your bust and concentrate, mate, And they all leave,
Speaker 4: and eventually she takes it off and her underpants as well,
Speaker 4: and they get very excited.
Speaker 2: But imagine that these days, there's no way, No, they're
Speaker 2: like perverts.
Speaker 1: I know, And you know that might anger some people,
Speaker 1: but I think you know, if we all disvolve, you
Speaker 1: won't know.
Speaker 2: There'll be other made a long time ago.
Speaker 1: Movies can do, mate. It's been a pleasure to sit
Speaker 1: down and chat movies with you.
Speaker 2: Been great fun. I love it, you know, I love movies.
Speaker 2: I love The last movie I saw too was Little Women.
Speaker 1: I've been in the seat.
Speaker 2: That's great. Well, I've got a teenage daughter who absolutely
Speaker 2: loved it. But it is. It is a great remake.
Speaker 2: It's fantastic.
Speaker 1: I love Greta. Ladybird was one of the best films
Speaker 1: of that year.
Speaker 2: Again, haven't seen it, but I've check out Lady Bird.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna watch it on my phone.
Speaker 1: Now, can you start watching movies on your phone? I
Speaker 1: can handle watching a scene from a movie on a phone.
Speaker 2: Oh god.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Anyway, yeah, I should stop. Look, my TV is quite
Speaker 2: small too. I tweeted the photo the other day because
Speaker 2: people were harassing Hugy about the size of his TV.
Speaker 2: And my TV is quite small too.
Speaker 1: She's got a small TV.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got well, in comparison to the wall that
Speaker 2: it was hanging off, it was quite small. Yeah, but
Speaker 2: I've got a smaller one. I reckon, but you get
Speaker 2: used to it. It's okay. It cuts out the left
Speaker 2: bit of the screen.
Speaker 1: But anyway, I have watched movies on my phone for
Speaker 1: work sometimes, I said you were linked to watch a movie,
Speaker 1: and I that's just the way the link, that is
Speaker 1: what you can do. The link is not working on
Speaker 1: the TV, so I watch You're a busy man, Forgiven,
Speaker 1: You're forgiven. Thank you so much for coming in and
Speaker 1: there would you write another movie? Well?
Speaker 2: Have you?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: I get ideas for them, but the way we write.
Speaker 2: We also wrote You and Your Stupor Mate, which also
Speaker 2: came out, and it was easy back then because we
Speaker 2: had a producer director guy who just did it, did
Speaker 2: all that grunt work and we just had to write
Speaker 2: them and we got paid, so it was easy. Whereas
Speaker 2: to actually sit down and write another one, Yeah, I
Speaker 2: don't know. I'd love to do it, but it's it's
Speaker 2: just a hard thing to do, don't you reckon? You
Speaker 2: did one, and did you ever? You must have thought
Speaker 2: about a second one.
Speaker 1: I've thought about. The thing I think about that the
Speaker 1: most is you need a film that has a real hook,
Speaker 1: like I think I love you too, and I'm really
Speaker 1: proud of it, and I get lots of lovely feedback
Speaker 1: still from it and about it. But I think the
Speaker 1: thing stopping it from a village had really high hopes
Speaker 1: for it, you know, becoming a bigger thing. Was It
Speaker 1: just didn't have that big hook really, besides the fact
Speaker 1: that it's an austrained rong com we don't make these
Speaker 1: at all.
Speaker 2: But it's not about the girl, the first girl to
Speaker 2: win the Cup, no, you know what I mean, which
Speaker 2: is a great hook for a right like a girl.
Speaker 1: Absolutely everyone wants to see that story. Well, I remember.
Speaker 1: I think it was the Christmas after that Melbourne Cup
Speaker 1: when Michelle Paine became the first woman ever to win
Speaker 1: the Melbourne Cup. My dad and I were discussing and
Speaker 1: my family were discussing, you know, they got to do
Speaker 1: it as a movie and like what we would focus
Speaker 1: on and what we you know, you know, and we
Speaker 1: kind of had different ideas of what you would actually
Speaker 1: focus on. But as we're discussing, I thought, I wonder
Speaker 1: who's going to get the right? Yeah, Rachel Grif probably
Speaker 1: a week later. I had the rights for the week earlier.
Speaker 1: Excellent mate, Thank you so much. Go catch Davanil whenever
Speaker 1: you around get a chance of the Fairfield Funhouse. Yes
