  • Great contribution.

    I love that magic moment in Jason’s interviews when it seems to dawn on the person being interviewed that ‘this guy actually knows what he’s talking about and wants to have an intelligent discussion!’ Great contribution to screen culture in Australia.

  • Excellent interviews but would love more reviews

    The filmmakers obviously love his passion and intelligence, so the interviews with Jason are great. But I’m actually more interested in film reviews, so tend not to listen as regularly as I could.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Deadloch S2/ François Ozon on The Stranger/ My Undesirable Friends
Q: How did François Ozon approach modernizing Camus' The Outsider for today's audiences, especially regarding Arab representation?
Ozon discusses contextualizing the story to the present, foregrounding female characters, and ensuring that Arab characters are given a voice, reflecting a modern sensitivity to post-colonial critique while maintaining the novel's themes of alienation and resistance to absurdism.
Zendaya and Robert Pattinson star in The Drama + The President's Cake + The Magic Faraway Tree
Q: How does the film balance intimate personal stakes with larger societal questions, without turning the story into a broader political statement?
Borgli emphasizes focusing on the characters' journeys and their emotional truths, using a private, inner-circle perspective to explore big questions about identity, reputation, and moral boundaries without prescribing ethical norms.
Zendaya and Robert Pattinson star in The Drama + The President's Cake + The Magic Faraway Tree
Q: Where did the idea for The Drama originate, and how did casting Zendaya and Robert Pattinson come together?
Borgli explains that the script existed within the studio system, Zendaya's team reached out with interest, and the casting of Pattinson followed a favorable meeting after he had shown interest and attended a screening for another Borgli film, making it a natural fit given the British-tinged nature of the lead character.
Amanda Seyfried on The Testament of Ann Lee + Sirāt + Vale Frederick Wiseman
Q: Is there a thread of black humour in your film, considering some deaths are violent yet may come across as slightly absurd?
A modern person may see absurdity in sudden death, but those who believe in destiny see it as part of a larger plan.
Amanda Seyfried on The Testament of Ann Lee + Sirāt + Vale Frederick Wiseman
Q: Was it difficult to play a character like this?
No, it made complete sense to me that this woman, with nothing to lose and that grief can expose you to unendurable pain yet also lead you to find something greater.
