It's a celebration of cinema, of culture, and of the Hanks family this week on the Movie Squad pod. Tristan Fidler and Simon Miraudo reunite to give Breakfast host Pamela Boland a double-dose of Hanks, with two new cinema releases starring the famous father, Tom, and his son (no, not Chet). First up, Tristan reviews Here, which sees Tom Hanks reunite with his Forrest Gump director Robert Zemeckis and co-star Robin Wright for an unusual adaptation of a graphic novel that spans centuries while focusing squarely on one single camera angle of a lounge room. Then, Simon previews the British Film Festival, specifically looking at the new Aisling Bea romcom And Mrs, in which she plays a recently widowed fiancee who pushes forward with a wedding to the deceased (played by Colin Hanks). Stay tuned for a pod-exclusive chat with Madeline Bates, the new/returning Film Curator at Perth Festival, all about the most exciting titles set to premiere at the Somerville Auditorium over the next few months. You can take a look at the full program here, ahead of the first film's debut on 25 November: Didi.

The Kitchen (Netflix) | Die neuste Dystopie aus der Netflix-Kantine Nicht selten ist es ja so, dass gerade die Science Fiction soziale Probleme und Missstände aus unserem Hier und Jetzt im futuristischen Setting aufgreift und über den aktuellen Status Quo hinaus weiterdenkt. Auch das Drama „The Kitchen“, das bereits letzten Herbst auf dem British Film Festival gezeigt wurde und seit dem 19. Januar bei Netflix zu sehen ist, bildet da keine Ausnahme. Der Film entwirft ein dystopisches London der Zukunft, das gar nicht mal so entfernt zu sein scheint von den momentanen Gegebenheiten. Die Schere zwischen Arm und Reich klafft weiter auseinander denn je, die verarmte Unterschicht wurde zurückgedrängt in ein Ghetto, genannt „The Kitchen“ und fristet dort ihr Elendsdasein. Aber selbst hier, am äußersten Rand der Gesellschaft scheinen sie nicht gefeit vor den Repressionen eines gesichtslosen Unrechtsregimes. Nach Filmen wie „Get Out“ und „Black Panther“, gibt Schauspieler und Oscarpreisträger Daniel Kaluuya mit „The Kitchen“ sein Co-Regiedebüt und erzählt dabei im Kern vor allem eine verquere Vater-Sohn Geschichte. Was den Film zwar zu einem typischen Erstlingswerk mit allem Für und Wider macht, aber dennoch durchaus sehenswert macht, das und mehr erfahrt ihr im Podcast mit Manuel und Dom. Und der beginnt, sobald ihr euren tristen grauen Alltag ein wenig aufhellt, indem ihr auf Play drückt. Viel Spaß mit der neuen Folge vom Tele-Stammtisch!

We continue our conversation with lauded Cinematographer Giles Nuttgens in the second part of our discussion. Ranging from the technical aspects of Anthropomorphic both historically and currently, his partnership with David Mackenzie and last year's Oscar Nominated success Hell or High Water, to the "challenge of his career" filming Semih Kaplanoğlu's black and white film epic Grain, and some recommendations of great cinematographers to study. Bio Giles Nuttgens recently completed photography on director Wash Westmoreland’s period drama Colette, starring Keira Knightley as a struggling French novelist. Previously, he lensed David Mackenzie’s Hell or High Water, which premiered in Un Certain Regard at 2016’s Cannes Film Festival to critical acclaim. Starring Jeff Bridges, Chris Pine and Ben Foster, Nuttgens earned a 2017 BAFTA Film Award nomination for Best Cinematography for his work. In 2016 Nuttgens also worked on The Fundamentals of Caring, which first screened at Sundance.The film follows Craig Roberts, Paul Rudd and Selena Gomez as a trio who connect on a life changing crosscountry journey. The last film to ever be shot on black-and-white Kodak 35mm film, Nuttgens shot Grain in Istanbul. Ironically, the movie tells the story of a seed geneticist attempting to save the last batch of genetically unmodified wheat. Nuttgens’ other feature credits also include: Young Ones and God Help the Girl, which both premiered at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival; and The D Train (starring Jack Black and James Marsden) and What Maisie Knew (starring Julianne Moore and Alexander Skarsgard) – both shot with his long-time collaborators, the directing team Scott McGehee and David Siegel. With director Deepa Mehta, Nuttgens lensed Midnight’s Children, based on the bestselling Salman Rushdie novel. Nuttgens’ also shot Mehta’s elemental trilogy Fire, Earth and Water. Water received a 2007 Oscar nomination for Best Foreign Language Film and earned Nuttgens the 2006 GENIE Award for Best Cinematography. In 2007, Nuttgens’ “sigh-inducingly evocative” (the Telegraph) cinematography for Mister Foe earned Best Cinematography awards at the Copenhagen Film Festival and British Film Festival in Dinard, as well as a Best Cinematography nomination at the 2008 Evening Standard Awards. Nuttgens first worked with McGehee and Siegel on The Deep End, a film which earned Nuttgens the 2001 Sundance Film Festival Award for Best Cinematography and a nomination in the same category at the 2002 Independent Spirit Awards. BBC trained, Nuttgens was one of the youngest cameramen ever to be appointed to the BBC and worked on a variety of dramas, documentaries and news program. Nuttgens remembers an exceptional experience in his early career spending four months in the Brazilian jungle sleeping on the sandbanks on the side of the Araguaia River. There, he ate dried manioc flour and the red-bellied Amazonian piranha that he fished for every day. Giles is represented by DDA.

Nuttgens first worked with McGehee and Siegel on The Deep End, a film which earned Nuttgens the 2001 Sundance Film Festival Award for Best Cinematography and a nomination in the same category at the 2002 Independent Spirit Awards. BBC trained, Nuttgens was one of the youngest cameramen ever to be appointed to the BBC and worked on a variety of dramas, documentaries and news program. Nuttgens remembers an exceptional experience in his early career spending four months in the Brazilian jungle sleeping on the sandbanks on the side of the Araguaia River. There, he ate dried manioc flour and the red-bellied Amazonian piranha that he fished for every day. Giles Nuttgens is represented by DDA.

The guys welcome Edreace Purmul to discuss Quentin Tarantino's problem with Hollywood's Cinerama Domeallegedly backing out of its agreement to show his movie in lieu of Star Wars. [youtube]https://youtu.be/_pd6yO-jBRo[/youtube] Edreace Purmul graduated from San Diego State University’s Film and Business school in 2006. His first debut into the cinema limelight incidentally was also his first film attempt post-graduation. His micro-budget feature film MOZLYM received immediate international acclaim and interest for its controversial and socially conscious appeal. MOZLYM received a Nomination for Best Picture in 2008 at the Cairo International Film Festival and won the Audience Favorite award at Riverside International Film Festival. It also was selected for official competition at International Film Festival Thailand, South Africa Film Festival, and British Film Festival of Los Angeles, where Purmul received multiple nominations for Best First Time Director. Check out Edreace'slatest film here! Full Podcast Transcript NASIR: Welcome to our podcast where we cover business in the news and add our legal twist. My name is Nasir Pasha and this time we’re joined with a Star Wars expert, Matt Staub, right? MATT: You know, you’ve said many different things for me. This was probably the one that’s farthest from the truth. NASIR: Yeah. MATT: I’m trying to think of some of the other ones you’ve said for me in the past like make-up expert. I think mine might be closer to that than Star Wars expert, unfortunately. So, I don’t know how much I’ll be able to offer on this but we’ll see what happens. NASIR: No. In fact, I’m pretty sure we talked last week about covering this episode and you’ve only seen the old ones which is forgivable because the new ones aren’t as good and we can kind of get into that discussion but it seems like you weren’t too familiar with it so I went ahead and got my own expert – since I knew you’d be lacking – my good friend, Edreace Purmul. He’s an independent filmmaker in San Diego. Edreace, are you there? EDREACE: Yes, I am! NASIR: Nice. Welcome to the podcast. EDREACE: Thank you guys for having me. NASIR: No problem. So, Edreace, Star Wars… This new film, is it going to be good, bad, or to be determined? EDREACE: Star Wars is kind of one of those unique – I guess you could say – sagas or series that the properties that it carries in terms of fan base and how it’s made and who’s behind it is very different than something that’s a little bit more consecutive because it’s spread out over the span of, you know, we’re talking 1976, it had its own fan base. George Lucas had his own – you know, he has his take on what he wanted to do with it and, really, the first Star Wars was not really called Episode IV. That’s not how it started. He actually just created the idea and didn’t really think about if this thing became a sequel. And so, after it kind of struck gold, then he started to kind of look at it and say, “Okay, let’s map it out.” But then, thirty years later, there’s a reboot and there’s another trilogy that’s part of the same clause, I guess, but you have completely different takes on it and you have a lot of jaded Star Wars fans who are like, “This is not the Star Wars I remember.” It got to a point where, you know, one of the reasons why Lucas even claims he left and basically sold it to Disney was he kind of lost control over what he thought was his own creative vision because the world had kind of owned it at this point and they were telling him, “You should have done this and you should have done that.” I think him kind of surrendering the reins to J.J. Abrams and Disney, it’s probably just going to feel different, in my opinion. I know J.J. Abrams, one of his goals was to try to really make it feel like the Star Wars that inspired him when he was young. I think he saw Star Wars when he was like eleven or something. And so, there’s a little bit of hope I guess for some of the older Star Wars fans ...
