Nicole Kitman, Errol Flynn, Peter Finch and David Gulpilil… they all are Australian actors who made their fortune in Hollywood. Australian talent is in fact very popular in the glitzy and cut-throat cinema business. Why is that? The book 'Cast Mates' looks behind the Hollywood curtain, from the Golden Age in the 1930s to the streaming wars of today. It follows the lives these four Australian actors and their cast mates and tells a story of how Australian cinema was founded, then faltered, before finding itself again.

This week we have a little talk about Walkabout! This film is packed with so much to discuss and dissect, like nature vs technology, editing and montage, sexuality, and much more! Tune in for next episode as we plan on talking about a Nolan film ahead of the release of Oppenheimer! Contact us at rollitpodcast@gmail.com or follow us!

In the twenty-eighth episode of Season 7 (Fantastical Realities) Kyle is joined by fellow podcaster Ben Thelen and filmmaker Jordan Berry to discuss the haunting Lovecraftian horror of the dreamscape between the phenomenal colonial reality and the noumenal Aboriginal spiritualism in Peter Weir's The Last Wave (1977).

Um dos dançarinos aborígenes mais famosos do mundo, David Gulpilil foi protagonista em diversos filmes como 'Crocodilo Dundee', A 'Última Vaga' ou 'Austrália' e recebeu diversas condecorações incluíndo a prestigiosa distinção de Membro da Ordem da Austrália. Gulpilil cresceu no seio da sua tribo Yolngu e aprendeu inglês de ouvido, sem nunca ter ido à escola. Morreu aos 67 anos vítima de cancro de pulmão, mas a sua data de nascimento nunca foi confirmada ao certo

A film where two young kids get lost in the Australian outback. Kyle doesn't think he'd be able to stand the heat. Dave believes he'd be able to suck mud water through a straw. The Machine plays the didgeridoo.

The Adele hits keep coming with her announcement of a Vegas residency in 2022 WHAAAAAAAT? C U THERE. If Omicron doesn’t screw things up.

In the final week of Parliament sitting, Kate Jenkins’ report into workplace culture at Parliament House has been released, and it’s even more shocking than some imagined.

Comedian and writer Nina Oyama has written a brutally honest account of comedy and misogyny and self belief, and we’re watching a brilliant doco on the late David Gulpilil, and a compelling new series on America’s opioid crisis ‘Dopesick’.
