Speaker 1 (00:07):
You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack Tame podcast
from News Talks at me. You're so good, so.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Scared the guitar ski want to be long.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
This is Saturday Morning. So I'm Francisca filling in for Jack.
With you until midday. Thanks you feedback. Morning, Francisca. After
fifty five years of following Formula one, it's giving me
goosebumps and brought tears to my eyes only which my
Formula one mentor my dad wasn't around to see all
the coverage we get now was or wasn't Not sure,
but no, everyone seems just really quite excited and very
(00:56):
moved about the slam laws and news. So that is excellent.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Right.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Chris Schultz is with us in the studio. Now is
Talk Entertainment. Good morning, Good morning. Okay, you've got a
couple of films which are streaming for us to talk about. First,
let's have a listen to carry on and.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
You're a low level tier, so you're going nowhere. I'm
telling you how this goes one bag for one life.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Well I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Go you listen to.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Okay, I don't know whether it's this time of year,
and I don't have a huge amount of time to
watch something if it doesn't grab me immediately. But this film,
I thought, I'll take a quick look at this. And
it sort of starts and you've got this character who
works at an airport and he's on security and someone
makes him mention that there is a hearing aid. It's
(01:50):
sort of a little hearing aid device left, and so
he puts it in his ear. Now who does that?
So at that point I went, I'm not sure I
can go. I've got other things to do. Christmas is coming.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
It's pretty far featured, and it doesn't really get any
less far fitted than that. At one point in this movie,
someone drives one of those buggies out to a plane
it's about to take off, dives into the cargo hold
and the plane they let it go. Like imagine being
a passenger on that plane. You'd be calling the police.
Everyone will be shutting that down, and no, they just
let it take off. It is that kind of movie.
(02:23):
But that voice you just heard, that's Jason Bateman. I
had to laugh. I watched this with my son last night,
and that was his first experience of Jason Bateman, A
very different experience to when I first saw him in
Arrested Development doing comedies. He's a villain in this, and
he's I think he's quite good. I think he's kind
of stern and he looks awful. He's got a baseball
(02:44):
cap and he's he's giving instructions to the border security agent.
I quite like the first half where they make the
tension that you feel when you're putting your luggage through
those scanners and you're going through the body scanners just
so much worse. It's at LAX. They filmed this at
an abandoned airport that's filling in for LAX. And I've
(03:04):
had some shocking experiences they're like everyone, and I haven't
had one this bad though, where there's a terrorist and
they're trying to get something onto a plane to do
a certain thing and they're using a border agent to
do it. I look, this is a Christmas movie apparently,
really in the same way the die.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Hard is, because it said at Christmas time and everyone's
going on holiday, so their what's really busy, which adds
to the tension.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
And there's a few Christmas songs in there to lighten
the mood. But I'm not mad at that. If you've
done all your Christmas presents and you've filled the stockings
and you need to mindless two hours. This will do it.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
This is on Netflix. You're right. It might film to
watch on Boxing Day when you throw it all and
you can actually you actually feel like you've got the
time to waste. Let's have a listen to during number.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Two and they had something.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
I got called for jury duty, the kind of coda case.
Maybe I didn't editar. Okay, this is directed by Clint Eastwood.
And why isn't this all at the cinemas? I don't
know it should be right, Yeah, it's streaming on Neon.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Yeah, it'd be great in a cinematic experience. It's streaming.
You can rent it, I think to on a lot
of different platforms. So this is a courtroom drama. Very
simple setup, but it's also quite far fetched. Like carry on,
if I'm going to try and describe it, it's a dura.
It's a journalist who gets picked for jury duty, and
(04:41):
as the trial starts it's a murder case, he realizes
that he actually may be the cause of the murder
and not the guy who's on trial for it. So
that's the setup which you need some suspension of disbelief there,
but they do pull it off. They really win. They
play it very straight, very serious. The actors in this
(05:02):
are big names. Tony Collette always incredible. She's the prosecuting
lawyer in this, and I think that's probably why I
bought into it, because she's just always so good. Yeah,
and she's in most of the movie. So yeah, this
is again it's it's a it's a it's a standard
story told pretty straight with a few dramatic flares.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
But is it mostly set in the courtroom? There's some
flashbacks outside?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
No, No, there's a lot of flashbacks. Yeah, but no,
it's mostly in the court room and in the jura room.
So that's probably the best. But I mean, look, I'm
a journalist. I don't get called for jury duty. They
don't let me do it, and so that's that's also
something that's a bit far fetched, right as a journalist
on jury judy, I sort of was like, oh, no,
that doesn't happen. But I did like the behind the
(05:50):
scenes machinations of like choosing whether someone's guilty or innocent.
There's a lot of that in there, and that's I
don't know, I'm into it.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
I liked it excellent. Well, I think anything. I mean
Clint Eastwood, he's he's steady as a director, isn't he
always don't He's like goodly Scott.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
He doesn't need to be doing How old is he? He
must be late eighties.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Surely I'll google that. A lot of good films though,
coming through the holidays, and as I've mentioned this morning,
eachally the cinema is a great place to be if
it gets too hot, or if it's if you've got
a few rainy days. Looks like there's a little bit
of rain on the way. Each your cinema is a
great place to go. And there's some really good flicks coming.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Out Air Calm, underrated, Yeah, I know. Yeah. Thereas Boxing
Day as a huge day, Anora as a Palm deal winner.
That is for the adults. Definitely Sonic the Hedgehog, three
of the franchise that just keeps on going. I don't
know how, but it's super popular. That's out. You will
not find me at the Robbie Williams Monkey Movie.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I'm sorry, No, it's great fun.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
No, I was, I'm not doing it.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I was skeptical before I went as well, because I
just thought okay with that. You know, Michael Gracie, He's
taken a gimmick and I'm not sure if it's going
to work. And do you know what I'm I'm not
even a huge Robbie Williams fan. And I went along
and I love, I cry and I walked out with
a big smile on my face. It's just the dose
of it's just feel good. It's honest. It's got his
(07:14):
charm and his witness naughtiness. I don't know, I think
you're being unfair. I think you should give it.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Akay, all right, maybe you sold that. The other thing
I just want to shout out to is in January,
the Christopher Nolan IMEX season is beginning. They're putting all
of Chris Nolan's movies on at Imax again. If you're
in Auckland or you're coming to It's amazing, all of
the Batman movies, Tenant, Interstellar, if you missed Oppenheimer on Imax,
you get a chance to see that again. They should
(07:39):
be doing this with New Zealand's biggest screen so much
more so.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
That's a really great idea and a really good use
of that screen. Paddington and Peru of.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Course my daughter. My daughter's excited about.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Well, the Paddington films are great. They're really great family films,
and I think they do cater to both adults and children.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Maybe, Chris, Yeah, I think you're probably gonna find me
more at a Nosferatu, this horror movie. Yeah, that's out
on January. I'm more likely to go to that. I
won't time my daughter.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
To that though. For those out there, so Paddington proud.
This is the third film Olivia Coleman, isn't it. She
sings a song like it's the sound of music. It's
absolutely fantastic. I've actually got Hugh Bonneville on the Sunday
session tomorrow after ten, and he's going to talk about it,
and also he's got some set some news for Downton
Abby fans as well. Did you mention Wallace and Grommet?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
I did not? Is that still guy? I didn't even
know that was mean. Look, we're all just kind of
killing time to squid Game season two.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Lands right, we're going to talk about that. We're going
to talk about that as well a little bit later on.
Have you seen Conclave too? Just very quickly because we've
got there. You were right there was so much coming
out in the new year. So this is out on
January ninth, and this is a recommendation from myself. It's
the one with Ray Fines and it it's the one
where they need to select a new pope. Have you
(08:53):
heard about this? So this played at the British and
Irish Film Festival recently and it's coming back on the
ninth and it's absolutely fantastic. So write that one down.
You were right about Anura as well. That's another really
good one for the adults. Actually, this is interesting. Elliott Smith,
who listeners will know as our news talks, he'd be
sports journalist and also the voice of rugby, knows everything
(09:16):
about rugby, very very good taste in film. And when
he goes on tour, like if his off he might
have an afternoon or an evening spare. So when he
was doing the Northern Talk the All Blacks, he had
he had two little sort of spare afternoons. He goes
to the movies and he came back and he saw
during number two in a cinema they're playing in the
cinemas in France, which he enjoyed, and he came back
(09:37):
and said, you've got to see in Laura, and I
thought it was the goodness me Elliott hidden, just hidden,
you just a hidden talents. He's got very good taste
in music as well. Hey, thank you so much for
filling in through the year. I know you pop up
on Jack Show and of course on a Sunday session.
It's it's always good to have you on board. Thanks,
have a lovely crusts.
