On this week's The Richard Crouse Show Podcast we meet: James Purefoy, direct from the south west of England, via Zoom. If you were a fan of HBO’s “Rome,” you know him as joyfully decadent Roman general and politician Mark Antony. Perhaps you were a fan of “The Following,” which saw him play a college professor-turned-serial-killer and cult leader for three seasons opposite Kevin Bacon. The versatile actor has a list of credits as long as my arm including the film he joins me to talk about today, “Fisherman’s Friends.” No, it’s not about the cough drops… it is a is a good-natured crowd pleaser about a real life singing group from Cornwall in England who went from singing at the local pub, when they weren’t on the water making a living, to producing the biggest selling traditional folk album of all time. Purefoy plays Jim, the leader of the group, who was initially skeptical about their chances for success outside their tiny village. When we did this interview he was sitting in his garden, and proudly showed me all the produce he’s been growing since the beginning of the pandemic. That also means that from time to time you’ll hear a bird chirping or a bit of wind… it’s not your speakers, it’s just nature on Purefoy’s property. Then we spend time with Rod Lurie, a West Point graduate who became a film critic and was once banned from screenings for referring to Danny DeVito as “a testicle with arms.” He is a journalist and author and, since 1999, a filmmaker. In this interview we talk about West Point, why he stood at attention at a screening of “Poltergeist” and, of course, his latest film, “The Outpost.” It’s an intense recreation of the Battle of Kamdesh, a bloody 2009 confrontation that saw 400 Taliban fighters attack Combat Outpost Keating in Afghanistan, a station manned by 53 American soldiers and just days before it was to be disbanded. Critics are raving about the film. “IndieWire” said that Rod shot “much of the 45-minute long ambush in hectic, agile long-takes that allows him to capture the Battle of Kamdesh for all of its terror, and with a clarity that allows us to feel that terror in our bones." The film is also being praised by veterans, including those who fought in the battle, for its realistic depiction of warfare and the life of a soldier. “The Outpost” is available now on VOD, wherever you legally rent or buy movies. Finally Richard welcomes Phil Dellio, author of "You Should've Heard Just What I Seen: Pop Music at the Movies and on TV."

This week we delve deep into the world of graphic novel film adaptations. Isaac's pick: V for Vendetta (James McTeigue, 2006); Clayton's pick: Ghost World (Terry Zwigoff, 2001); Ryan's pick: Road To Perdition (Sam Mendes, 2002). Tangents include: theocracy in fiction and reality, hipsterism, censorship of art in public spaces, and youth in exodus. Three Film Egos (but Isaac specifically) regrets the error: according to wikipedia, "Originally James Purefoy was cast as V, but left six weeks into filming due to difficulties wearing the mask for the entire film. He was replaced by Hugo Weaving... Portions of the film contain scenes with Purefoy playing V with a dubbing from Weaving." To get involved in the discussion, like us on facebook.com/threefilmegos.
