Uh, the perfect killer has met his match, and it's basically Daniel Harris plays Wendy Alden, a young secretary, uh, lacking in self-confidence, and she becomes a victim of a savage serial killer, which is John Jarratt, Jarratt, however you say it.
JoshHOST
Uh-
Mark SmithGUEST
But his achievements are still remarkable and should be considered among those of other explorers, 'cause he went to places where certainly the Anglican Church had not been before in Australia, out to stations like Elsie Station, where they based the story of We of the Never Never.
Mark SmithGUEST
You remember that film of the '80s with John Jarratt? You know, he went there around the time of the First World War.

JulianAUDIENCE
Now, I'd like to know, before David Williamson's The Club, there was a p- play and film called And the Big Men Fly, which written by the late Alan Hopgood.
JulianAUDIENCE
And then after came another football film called Salute to the Great McCarthy, where I think it was John Jarratt.
JulianAUDIENCE
Would I be correct on that?
Shane A BassettGUEST
Uh, I, I like John Jarratt, but I've never come across that movie, Julian.
Shane A BassettGUEST
Um, if, if, when you say football, are you talking about Australian rules?
JulianAUDIENCE
Australian rules.
Shane A BassettGUEST
But, um, yeah, not a lot of Aussie rules movies.
Shane A BassettGUEST
I'm s- I'm sorry.

Some casting stuff.

Mickey Rourke, Sylvester Stallone, Ving Rhames, Kurt Russell and Australian actor John Jarrett were all considered for the role of stuntman Mike with Quentin Tarantino.
Jeannine DeBeanHOST
upon the urging of Grindhouse co-director Robert Rodriguez.
Jeannine DeBeanHOST
Finally settling on Russell, Rourke and Stallone had also turned down the roles of Butch Coolidge in Pulp Fiction and Louis Garra in Jackie Brown, respectively making them the only actors to have declined multiple Tarantino films.
James ManningHOST
Based around half sisters Claire McLeod played by Lisa Chappell and Tess Silverman McLeod played by Brodie Carter.
James ManningHOST
Key cast members across the initial seasons are Rochelle Capani, Aaron Jeffery, Miles Pollard, Sonya Todd, Simone Jade MacKinnon and More bit parts, if you like, for maybe John Jarrett and Roger Courser.
James ManningHOST
Who's got fond memories of MacLeod's? No one, okay.
