man.
Jeremy KaplowitzHOST
People are asking questions like, do you have a comfort movie that never gets old? She says, for me, glory, Lincoln Lawyer, Out of Africa.
Alex PtakHOST
Mostly she's talking about movies that she
Jeremy KaplowitzHOST
likes.
Mike SlaterHOST
So the rest of the six multiple choice I get, two of these are soundtracks that Donald Fagan wrote for.
Mike SlaterHOST
Caddyshack, Bright Lights Big City, Out of Africa, Blade Runner, Heavy Metal, and Big Business.
Mike SlaterHOST
Wow.
Mike SlaterHOST
Two of those Donald Fagan wrote for.
Dre AlvarezHOST
I don't think that's the right answer, and I'm running buzzed in, but those are the two I would be like, oh, please tell me those are the two he did.
Ted FrauenfeldGUEST
Yeah, I hope it's Blade Runner.
Ted FrauenfeldGUEST
That's Blade Runner and Out of Africa.
Mike SlaterHOST
Oh, wrong on both accounts.
Erik AndersonGUEST
like honed in the 80s when it was period pieces and that that kind of became biopics and period pieces are the things that that have been like the staples for Oscar bait.
Erik AndersonGUEST
So you had, you know, Chariots of Fire, Out of Africa, Dangerous Liaisons and movies like that, which always would win like production design, costume design.
Erik AndersonGUEST
Those were the coffee table book movies, which is what we used to call them back in the day.
Erik AndersonGUEST
And it just was it really it really shaped that whole decade for me of what an Oscar winner was.
JustinHOST
He confirms that Andra Sint-Avani was a University of Houston student.
JustinHOST
Um, What else was that? He said the editor was Claudio Cuttree, who got an Oscar nomination for his work on Out of Africa with Robert Redford and I think Meryl Streep's in that as well.
JustinHOST
So quite a sort of different type of film.
JustinHOST
He said some violence was trimmed to ensure a NAR rating for the Motion Picture Association of America.
Larrian GillespieGUEST
mean, I always watch Bedford.
Larrian GillespieGUEST
I mean, I can still watch Out of Africa and cry every time.
Larrian GillespieGUEST
I can't tell you how many times I've seen that film.
Larrian GillespieGUEST
it still is so well written and so well acted by everyone in it that emotionally it's got you set up for the cues of when you're going to cry.
TylerHOST
I know.
TylerHOST
Her movie Out of Africa.
TylerHOST
Never saw it.
TylerHOST
We're about to be in Africa.
Louis Saint-CyrGUEST
So then you're like, OK, what's the movie that you've been watching your entire life that just you love? And so, you know, I'm going to say two movies.
Louis Saint-CyrGUEST
Well, I'll go with Out of Africa.
Louis Saint-CyrGUEST
Oh, nice.
Louis Saint-CyrGUEST
Great pick.
Doug WeaverHOST
It just lives in there.
Doug WeaverHOST
What else did the guy have to do? Well, he also did Dances with Wolves and Out of Africa, which are two really very fine scores.
Doug WeaverHOST
And then just a couple of quick ones I just threw in because I wanted to make sure I did.
Doug WeaverHOST
Henry Mancini,
AdamGUEST
Don't stop.
AdamGUEST
I don't know if you've ever read the book or seen the movie Out of Africa.
AdamGUEST
It was made in the 80s.
AdamGUEST
And this book and movie is a true story about a Danish noble woman named Baroness Karen Blixen.
AdamGUEST
She lived in Kenya and she was the owner of a large coffee plantation.
AdamGUEST
There was a tribe known as the Kikuyu that she had grown to love.
AdamGUEST
At a reception for the new governor of Kenya, she disregarded protocol by bypassing others in the crowd and going straight to the governor himself.
AdamGUEST
And shamelessly, she fell to her knees, grabbing the governor's hand, and pleaded for the Kikuyu tribe.
Andrew LeachGUEST
I wanted to know.
Andrew LeachGUEST
Actually, I know Michael's favourite film score is Out of Africa, I think, by John Barry.
Michael SmithHOST
One of them.
Michael SmithHOST
You mentioned that last time.
Michael SmithHOST
I mentioned it because I'd just gone through, I think we mentioned this off radio, but I'd been flying across Australia and it was flooded.
Michael SmithHOST
And I just happened to have Out of Africa loaded on my phone and I was listening to it and it was just surreal because, you know, those scenes in the film where he's flying across Africa, the middle of Australia can feel like that too.
Michael SmithHOST
But, you know, seeing the mission here, the mission is one of my favourites as well.
Michael SmithHOST
I don't have any one favourite any more than I have one favourite film.
