2021 marks the 10th year of Nashen Moodley's Sydney film festival directorship. We catch up with him over zoom to discuss whether we are in/coming out of a Dark Age of cinema, current trends in film festivals, and how SFF is staying relevant. We also spotlight Real by Aki Omoshaybi (which is screening at SFF) and discuss the hard sells of the festival. Listen till the end to hear about André's personal beef with Apichatpong Weerasethakul. Is Memoria a lame-stream sell out film?

To note: Nashen likes Rashomon (1950), for any critics out there...

Is Memoria mainstream? w/ Nashen Moodley [SFF Special]

Movies, Movies, Movies goes nocturnal in a deeply PM conversation for sleepwalkers. One film about the day (The Taste of Things), against a film about the night (The Strangers: Chapter 1) with eating in common. The night-talkers play 'what's the definition of mise-en-scene', discuss objects of optimism, André is afraid to bring up Sciamma, and the 2 agree on 2 films that 'nobody is craving at the moment' until they're saved by the wise words of Oregon filmmaker Theda Hammel. Spoiler alert: there's talk about Martin + Thelma and how carriages are movies and organising disordered thoughts. We live in a time of cruel art.

The Taste of Burgers

Cannes is the sister city of Beverly Hills which makes it a moving target for MMM. Jen and André have a conversation about a film festival 16,746 km away from FBi Radio. It's an Andrea year, not a Lynne year, and all about showing up to work but not in a Reichardt way. Directors do their job, budget cuts become jump cuts, and we try to figure out what Megalopolis says about our past friendships. Noticing patterns J+A discuss The Strangers (all 3 of them), Straub-Huillet, Liv Tyler's sliding door acting, what's starring Junglepussy, a treatise on the Sydney film movement of stylists becoming directors, debunking Fever Ray and Jen's discovery of Haile Gerima.

Eora. Fedora. Sean Baker. Anora.

What a C*nnes

MMM dressed as motorbikes to attend the premiere of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga by George Miller, a director who at 79 years old still has it. Afterwards, the duo gather in studio to discuss the biggest talkie of the year. Jen conjures the experience of Mel Gibson eating steak on set barehanded, running in circles as feminine storytelling, Noah and the Whale, what happens when wives edit together, how Byron Bay is in NSW, and  both Chris Hemsworth and John Howard's big bloodied nipples - all composite parts of Furiosa's whole. André admits to craving continuity, Jen discusses the news of a Mousetrap film produced by Margot, and between reflections on Moulin Rouge J+A pay respect to the mastermind Tina Turner. The windmill continues to spin. Vrrrrrrr vrrrrrrrrrr vrooom roar.
