Every couple of years, 7 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: a big controversial something happens. It reminds people that the 8 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: Oscars are on. Because but this year there's a number 9 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:25,919 Speaker 1: of Australians who are nominated, which will make it of 10 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: interest to a lot of Australians.

Kate Blanchette is up for Lead Actress 12 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 1: in the film Tar That I think it's about a 13 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: German conductor or get you for not a bus conductor, 14 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,160 Speaker 1: a music conductor.

First, Michelle Yohe, who's been winning 22 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: a lot of the lead up awards to this. She's 23 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: the woman in everything, everywhere, all at once. Yep. If 24 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: she wins, she will be the first Asian woman in 25 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: history to win the award. She's the first Asian woman 26 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: in history to be nominated for Best Actress. 27 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 2: Has anyone of Asian extraction ever won an Academy Award? 28 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 1: Not in the Actress? 29 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 2: Surely Jackie Chan would have had her. 30 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,199 Speaker 1: He wouldn't have got an oscar. The rush out those 31 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 1: films to not win Oscars outrageous, isn't it? 32 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 2: Just? 33 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,479 Speaker 1: Well, that's take that beef somewhere else, Brendan, What. 34 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 2: About Tom Cruise, Like she should get an award instead 35 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 2: of these artie films where they strap on prosthetics. It 36 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 2: should be movies like Kickbum, movies like Maverick should be 37 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: getting the Academy Awards. 38 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: Well, it's interesting because they say that comedies and action 39 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: films normally don't, so you get that's where you get 40 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: your production awards for all the star wallsy Light savory stuff, 41 00:01:57,840 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: but they don't win the Academy Awards for acting. 42 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 2: What about the goody bag. Is there a goody bag 43 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: this year? 44 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: Interestingly, the goody bag is worth about one hundred and 45 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: eighty thousand or something each. I think there's just the 46 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: presenters that get the goodie bag one hundred and twenty 47 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: six thousand dollars. There's some stuff in there where you 48 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: can win. You know, a three nights stay on a 49 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: cliff top house in Italy worth sixty thousand dollars. You 50 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: probably still have to pay your own airfares to get there. 51 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: It's like those charity things. But hey, stay on my 52 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: house boat that's in Helsinki. But you've got to get 53 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: your own way there. 54 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 2: You get a jet staff flight over to there. 55 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: And so what the interesting thing is that people are 56 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: really talking about here, though, is that ownership of one 57 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 1: square meter of land in Queensland is part of the 58 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: goodie bag. Who has the right to give away Queensland. 59 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 2: One square meter? 60 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: What are you going to do with that? And how 61 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: tokens that? And who owns it? I pay a duplex 62 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: on it it was in Sydney, you'd make a lot 63 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: of money. And this is of course the usual sort 64 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: of thing. You also get cosmetic treatments in your goody bag, 65 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: liposuction of facelift. Have it at your table during long speeches. 66 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 2: That could be the thing. 67 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: Get a Brazilian butt lift while you're waiting could be 68 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: a thing.
