Radio Updates

By Audio and Cinema

I man­aged to fit in a couple of appear­ances on Radio New Zealand National in the busy late-December period.

Arts on Sunday podcast iconFirstly, The Listener’s Helene wong and I joined Simon Morris on the Arts on Sunday for a chat about the state of New Zealand cinema in 2013 promp­ted by the recent New Zealand Film Awards (or “Moas”).

Nine to Noon podcast iconThen, just before every­one broke for the Christmas break I paid Kathryn Ryan a vis­it at Nine to Noon to dis­cuss my high­lights of the year and Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug.

Lynn Freeman’s Arts on Sunday show returned from the Summer break yes­ter­day but film cor­res­pond­ent Simon Morris was giv­en an extra week off (some­thing to with Matinée Idle I suspect).

Decade in Review

By Cinema and Radio

Not by me.

Christ, I’m too busy with being on hol­i­day and pre­par­ing for my forth­com­ing return to the Wellington stage to think about sum­ming up a dec­ade in cinema (par­tic­u­larly as I was­n’t watch­ing much film for the first half of it).

Luckily, Ant Timpson has done the work for me. Check out his two lists (Best of the Decade and Best Horror Films of the Decade) and keep them in mind when you are next at the video shop.

Meanwhile, you can listen to myself and Auckland’s Dominic Corry talk to Arts on Sunday’s Lynn Freeman about the 2009 year at the movies (which was broad­cast about ten days ago) and wait a day or two for me to post my Capital Times picks of the year right here.
