CW: This episode contains discussions of alcoholism and cinematic violence including animal cruelty.The writer, comedian and musician Patrick Marlborough returns to the podcast from Perth, WA to discuss Wake in Fright (1971), the landmark Australian film by the late Canadian director Ted Kotcheff. One of only two films to be shown twice in the history of the Cannes Film Festival, and influential in shaping both the Australian New Wave and Ozploitation genres, Wake in Fright was acclaimed around the world but outraged local audiences with its brutal and merciless depiction of Australian toxic masculinity, violence, and alcoholism.Patrick gives us some insight on how Wake in Fright captures some of the ugliest aspects of the Australian national character, and we discuss how Kotcheff's Canadian-ness was an asset for his outsider's view of this world, the amazing supporting performance by Aussie comic screen icon Chips Rafferty in his final role, and how this great film was nearly lost forever.

Ted Kotcheff fue el responsable de la primera película de Rambo o de la comedia "Este muerto está muy vivo". Pero mucho antes de eso, firmó la que es considerada la mejor película en la historia de Australia: "Wake in Fright", una cruda mirada al mundo tal como es.
*CONTENT WARNING!

Q&A with filmmakers Alexandra Kotcheff & Hannah Leder on their film The Planters. Moderated by Mara Webster, In Creative Company. A down-and-out telemarketer develops an unlikely friendship with a vagrant who has multiple personalities.
In our first post-Trump episode, Jason is joined by Friend Of The Pod Richard Brown to discuss the 1979 Nick Nolte film North Dallas Forty. Before that, Rick and Jason catch up on withdrawing from political mainlining, growing up as children of single Mom's in the 1970's, and then get to the good stuff; a robust, detailed discussion of the genius of Ted Kotcheff and the singular pleasures of North Dallas Forty. North Dallas Forty is billed as a "sports comedy-drama" which just shows how hard to categorize this brilliant and subversive counter-culture take on battling corrupt institutions actually is. And yes, it IS about professional football, and the NFL, and the Dallas Cowboys and what at the time was a rare behind-the-scenes look inside an NFL locker room. But it's also, like many of director Ted Kotcheff's other films (First Blood, Wake in Fright, Fun With Dick and Jane) about the individual fighting against or being co-opted by unfeeling authority. When Nick Nolte developed the movie, he hand-picked Kotcheff as a director precisely because Kotcheff admittedly knew next to nothing about football. All the more impressive then that what few football scenes there are tend to be so impressively and bone-crunchingly filmed in North Dallas Forty. Featuring a fantastic supporting cast of character actors like Charles Durning, G.D. Spradlin and Dabney Coleman, all of whom plumb familiar territory with sometimes surprising depths. And it was the film debut of country superstar Mac Davis, who turns in a remarkably nuanced and complicated performance as the QB who has made his peace, sort of, with the professional and moral compromises he has embraced thus far. North Dallas Forty is a great football movie, it's a great 70's movie, it's a great New Hollywood movie, and on and on.

The 2019 AFI Fest (presented by Audi) is happening right now in Los Angeles, and along with World Premieres and major award-winners, the festival also features the "New Auteurs" section with bold new films by breakout filmmakers. One of the those films at this year's festival is "The Planters" by Alexandra Kotcheff and Hannah Leder, who not only star in the film, but are also the writers and directors. It's a unique, idiosyncrasy about an unlikely friendship between a reclusive telemarketer and a woman with multiple personalities. We interviewed Kotcheff and Leder about where the idea for the film came from, working together as filmmaking collaboratives, and how they created some hilarious stop-motion animation interludes. Hosted by Carlos Aguilar & Conor Holt. Music by Kevin MacLeod at www.incompetech.com

On this Special Presentation of On Story we're taking a closer look at some of the incredible films chosen to screen at the 26th Annual Austin Film Festival. We talked with the filmmakers whose work represent some of the most original voices in filmmaking from around the world about the challenges they faced in their creative process, and the breakthroughs that led them to The Austin Film Festival. This week on On Story, co-writers and directors Alexandra Kotcheff and Hannah Leder discuss the process of making their feature film, The Planters. The film is a whimsically stylized comedy about a woman who buries treasure in the desert and befriends another young woman with a multitude of personalities. Kotcheff and Leder both star in the film.
Sustainable producer Antonio Saillant maintains a close friendship with his mentor Ted Kotcheff, former executive producer of NBC's “Law & Order: SVU”, as well as director and producer of Wake in Fright and acclaimed films, First Blood, Fun with Dick and Jane and Weekend at Bernies. It all began when Saillant became Kotcheff’s mentee and Saillant shadowed Kotcheff in his persona whose directorial style and creativity is well respected in the film industry. Saillant, along with many peers, have stated that Kotcheff has great vision, compassion and a deep understanding of every possible detail in film making. Saillant's intrigue and determination led him to work with his mentor Kotcheff, absorbing every detail of a director‘s job. To date, Saillant remains an ardent fan of Kotcheff's works. Newly restored Wake in Fright is an outrageous Australian film classic that was screened at Film Forum some time ago. Saillant worked diligently on the restored version of Wake in Fright and played a key role in publicizing the film which was believed to be lost for many years.The film’s editor, Anthony Buckley, was able to locate the last remaining print of Wake in Fright in a storage depot, scheduled for destruction in just weeks. It took considerable work to salvage the print and restore the film so that it would run smooth and clean. The materials were then restored frame-by-frame at Sydney’s AtLabDeluxe with the aid of the National Film and Sound Archives of Australia. It all began with Saillant's idea to present Kotcheff with a perfect gift for his 80th birthday celebration. Saillant approached Kotcheff's wife, Laifun, about doing a screening of Wake in Fright. Together, they located a decent film print with the aid of the National Film and Sound Archives and obtained permission to screen it. Saillant and Laifun secured The Museum of Modern Art in New York City for the screening of Wake in Fright. Wake in Fright was not an immediate hit. It languished. Enter Tony Timpone, editor emeritus of Fangoria and co-director of international programming of Fantasia Film Festival. As per Saillant's invitation, Timpone had attended the screening of Wake in Fright in New York City at the MOMA and took a liking to the film. Timpone then met with Saillant to discuss the possibility of screening Wake in Fright in Fantasia Film Festival. Thereafter, Saillant and Kotcheff met in Kotcheff's office where Saillant pitched the idea of bringing Wake In Fright to Fantasia Film Festival. At first, Kotcheff seemed hesitant but Saillant insisted it would create a buzz with a new audience of film makers around the world. Kotcheff agreed. Timpone screened Wake in Fright at his Fantasia Film Festival, and an audience immediately began to build. In Germany, Wake in Fright was screened at the Oldenburg Film Festival, along with other Kotcheff films like Who is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe? His later films included The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz (1973), Fun with Dick and Jane (1977), First Blood (1982) and Weekend at Bernie’s (1988). Saillant's persistence of Wake in Fright paid off big and created a domino effect. Australians were attracted to the amazing qualities of the film made in their own Outback. An explosion of interest has now established and the film played in New York, LA, and Texas. Kotcheff’s continued success landed this past weekend at the Fantasia Film Festival where he reunited with Timpone to receive the inaugural Canadian Trailblazer Award as well as present screenings of THE APPRENTICESHIP OF DUDDY KRAVITZ and FIRST BLOOD.

Na lamela do microscópio das Nalgas foi colocada esta semana a carreira de Ted Kotcheff para ser analisada. Não sem antes ter sido dissecada e esquartejada com a habitual sensibilidade que é reconhecida a estes 3 rapazes. Entre insultos pessoais e apelos à separação conjugal, consegue-se uma fina essência de Kotcheff capaz de elucidar o mais impaciente dos cinéfilos.
Tudo tem um começo. Se hoje os filmes de ação e os heróis de ação são populares muito se deve a Rambo: Programado Para Matar (First Blood, 1982), filme dirigido por Ted Kotcheff e com o nosso querido Sylvester Stallone interpretando o primeiro dos brucutus. Tiago Lira, o Tigre (@tiagoplira), Marcelo Zagnoli (@marcelozagnoli) e Rodrigo Cliff (Plano 9) conversam sobre o ano de 1982 no cinema e da carreira de Kotcheff e como o roteiro chegou às suas mãos. Também discutimos sobre guerras, do filho pródigo e da influência da contracultura. Além disso, discutimos questões gerais do filme - inclusive quem poderia ter aceito o papel além do Sly -, da fotografia de Andrew Laszlo, e como o legado deixado por esse ótimo filme apagou a mensagem original nesse que antes de ser um filme de ação, é um profundo drama. E, como sempre, spoilers liberados!

Comedian Dustin Meadows hosts a weekly show wherein he watches his favorite movies with other comedians who've never seen the film before. Dustin takes Nick Glaser through one of Stallone's finest turns as the eponymous character of an action movie, discussing the trauma inflicted upon and the poor reception that greeted many of our nation's veterans, as well as a small powerhouse cast that delivers some memorable performances in the story of one man's war at home. *Artwork by Brandon Schneider
