Conversation is at the heart of Irishman Abroad. Today Ed Guiney the co-founder of Element Pictures (Lobster, Room, Killing Of Sacred Deer, What Richard Did, The Guard, Adam & Paul, Normal People) tells us why it’s also at the centre of making great TV and film.   This week he sat down with Jarlath to discuss life, work and the huge success of Normal People the screen adaptation of Sally Rooney’s award winning book. What makes someone chose to be a film producer and what makes them decide at 15 years old to chose it as their path when Ireland was on its knees economically. Ed talks about his work and friendship with Lenny Abrahamson, the role of intuition in decision making and how much he believes film relies upon the planets aligning. The discussion covers a range of subjects including attempts by film companies come up with possibly shooting solutions to allow productions to take place during the global pandemic.    Ed opens up to Jarlath about how he copes with worry, the production that was spiralling in cost, the best audition tapes he’s ever seen and more (Patreon only).

En ting der har haft og vil have indflydelse på samtlige film vi har snakket om og vil snakke om på Hjørnet, er censur. Et emne der har skræmt os væk lige siden vi første gang fik idéen til at gå i dybden med... indtil nu. Takket være Bries grundige research og et par snakkesalige ekspert og operatører på området, giver vi os nemlig i kast med at kortlægge hvordan filmcensur fungerer, både historisk og i nutiden. Vi har et interview med Katrine Munch fra Medierådet for børn og unge, der fortæller om arbejdet med at finde frem til aldersgrænser for film i Danmark. Og så har vi programansvarlige for CPH:PIX, Thure Munkholm, i studiet, i kraft af hans viden om og interesse i filmcensur. Bliver interessant, gør det (P.s. En nisse i studiet gjorde at den del af podcasten med Thure kun blev optaget på ét spor, hvilket gør at lyden i censur-indslaget er liiiidt anderledes i forhold til resten.) Derudover skal vi naturligvis kværne en masse anmeldelser igennem (About Time, This is the End, The Escape Plan, Betties tur, Farvel til mafiaen, What Richard Did, Carrie, Frances Ha, Thor: The Dark World, En nuance af blå, Tarok, Captain Phillips, The Broken Circle Breakdown og Mit liv med Liberace) og snakke lidt nyheder. Og så en bag-scenerne-update: Casper har fået et tids- og energikrævende fuldtidsarbejde. Han er blevet medredaktør på Kino.dk, med web-tv som ansvarsområde. Han har altså sagt farvel til 11 år som freelancer. Det har betydet at der er skruet ned for blusset på Filmnørdens Hjørne. Forhåbentlig er det et spørgsmål om tid, før end vi finder ud af hvordan Hjørnet skal blive ved med at producere podcasts, uden at Casper dør en tidlig død af overanstrengelse. Det vil muliigvis betyde lidt ændringer i formen af vores podcasts og (utvivlsomt) en nedgang i aktiviteten på vores Facebookside. Vi holder ikke op med at lave podcasts. Vi skal bare lige lære at eksistere under lidt ændrede forhold. Men nok om det, for nu skal du bare kaste dig ud i 84'eren og have en rigtig god fornøjelse. Med venlig hilsen, Casper & Brie (& Thure)

Newcomer Jack Reynor joins host Robin Milling at The Tribeca Film Festival for his film What Richard Did. The Colorado born, Ireland raised actor now makes his home in Los Angeles in preparation for Transformers 4 co-starring Mark Wahlberg. Jack tells Robin he is undaunted and well prepared for the brink of the blockbuster which will ultimately give him tremendous accolades in Hollywood. With his baby face good looks he will no doubt grace the cover of many teen magazines. Thanks to advice he received from fellow countryman Michael Fassbender, he is ready. Growing up in the idyllic town of Humphrystown, Co. Wicklow, he was no stranger to the Transformer toys. Recently he visited his childhood home where he discovered a bag of 'bad ass tanks' in his attic which he gifted to his younger brother and sister. Ironically he got the call for the movie a couple of months later. In What Richard Did, Jack shows off his acting talents to the hilt portraying a star athlete in South Dublin who must face the consequences of wronging the people closest to him. Jumping into icy cold waters in the Irish sea for the beach scenes was just the surface of playing out the emotional arc his character goes through.
