Director Jeff Balsmeyer was an American film storyboard artist itching to make his writing and directing debut. His passion project was Danny Deckchair, a romantic comedy based on the real life adventure of California dreamer Larry Walters who tied helium balloons to a lawn chair to lift off into the sky over Long Beach in 1982. After ten years of shopping the idea around and having recently married an Aussie and relocated there, Balsmeyer made and set his film in Australia. Brit Rhys Ifans was chosen to play Danny, Justine Clarke came on as Trudy, his frustrated girlfriend, and Miranda Otto was a natural fit for Glenda, the new woman that comes into his life. Dan and Vicky discuss this low budget charmer from 2004. Vicky catches us up on her participation in the post-inauguration NYC Woman's March and all her recent viewing including the films Patriots Day, Creed, Midnight Cowboy and the Count Yorga films and the TV shows Sherlock, Smash and Netflix's A Series of Unfortunate Events. Dan tells us about his new off-Broadway show, Mother of Invention, and some of his recent watches including John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China and Memoirs of an Invisible Man, the recent big screen Passengers and The Bye Bye Man, the documentary Rats and TV shows Channel Zero and The Exorcist. We also read our first listener e-mail in a long time! Soar with Hot Date 44 and Danny Deckchair on this Aussie flight of fancy. Leave us some feedback.
John started recording and performing Foley back in 1985 working for the South Australian Film Corporation. He went freelance as a Foley artist in 1987, starting his own company in 1997, FeetnFrames.The FeetnFrames studio is set in remote rural South Australia. The remoteness gives them a great advantage as his team can easily record outside when required. With great recording locations nearby, they are able to do location foley when the film requires it and sounds that cannot be created with the same quality in the studio.John's earlier projects include Foley walker work on Jane Campion's The Portrait of a Lady and Peter Weir's The Truman Show. Other Foley artist work included: Oscar and Lucinda, Babe: Pig and the City, Lantana, and Danny Deckchair.John's diverse mix of projects for FeetnFrames have included: King Kong, The World's Fastest Indian, December Boys, Australia, Mary and Max, The Lovely Bones, The Hobbit films, The Sapphires, and 100 Bloody Acres.More recent Foley projects for John's team include: Chef, The Lego Movie, The Babadook, The Water Diviner, Mad Max: Fury Road, and the upcoming film, Regression.
The most controversial episode of Punwatch yet! (In terms of rules violations. The puns are as tame as usual.) This episode's title is Sepp Blatter, Greek Debt and Danny Deckchair. Also, one reference to Regurgitator. It didn't fit. Punsters: James Ferris, Alex Malone, David Shaw Host: Andrew Cherry
In which our heroes are made an offer they can’t refuse, get fitted for their concrete boots and end up sleeping with the fishes as they discuss Crime Part II: The Mafia. We wonder what the correct procedure is for waking up next to a horse’s head, ask if Danny Deckchair has any boob in it and recount the time one of us almost ended up working for the mafia. Tessa wants to know where she can sign up, Jackson surmises that he would get the man who vouched for him instantly murdered, and special guest Brendan McCallum just wants to be a driver. So join the gang as they officially become made men, inevitable have to whack a guy and try their hardest to not rat on each other because snitches get stitches. Want to help hire body guards for Jackson?
