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