Sculpting the Movie: The Experience of Directing 'Shine' with Scott Hicks

Summary In this documentary, made for the 20th anniversary of the release of SHINE, director Scott Hicks recalls the long development of the project and the gradual assembly of a remarkable production team including actor Geoffrey Rush, producer Jane Scott and screenwriter Jan Sardi. Hicks recalls the complexities of shooting the film in Australia on a limited budget, contrasting with his subsequent experiences working in Hollywood on major studio productions. SHINE won a slate of national and international awards, culminating in the Oscar for Best Actor, and transformed Hicks's life as a filmmaker. His reflections on the doors that opened for him because of SHINE are rich with insights into the production industry. It is one of three short films documenting the making of SHINE - see also GEOFFREY RUSH: The Imp, the Spirit, the Hero, and DAVID HIRSCHFELDER: Drawing the Audience In. Each film is built around an informal interview conducted by film historian Andrew Pike (also the original theatrical distributor of SHINE through his company, Ronin Films), and is illustrated with archival material and clips from SHINE itself. The films were produced by Momentum Films, the company behind SHINE, and were directed by Andrew Pike, photographed by James Arneman, Mike Kenneally and Stuart Mannion, and edited by James Lane.

Freddie

Freddie

Freddie Mercury was known for his flamboyant stage persona and four-octave vocal range - the lead singer of Queen defied the conventions of a typical rock frontman. He paved the way for many contemporary artists to have a more confident and theatrical act which indelibly shaped the next generation of pop and rock music. From working as a baggage handler at Heathrow airport to hiding his HIV diagnosis from the public until just before his death, Mercury's life was filled with adventure, publicity, and perhaps above all, a clear duality. He was both flamboyant and shy, outspoken and intensely private. The illness that claimed his life could never have defined Freddie, and now, years later, his legacy is greater than he could have ever imagined.

Kenneth Tynan: In Praise of Hardcore

Kenneth Tynan: In Praise of Hardcore

In 1963, flamboyant, eccentric English theatre critic Kenneth Tynan is made 'literary manager' of London's National Theatre. His views on censorship (can't stand it) and sexuality (as much of it onstage as possible) set him on a collision course with the NT's Chair, Sir Oliver Lyttelton. Tynan has a friend and ally in the Governor, Laurence Olivier, but cannot always count on the older, more conventional man's support. Demoted after becoming the first person to drop the F-bomb on British TV, Tynan struggles to stage his 'erotic entertainment' "Oh Calcutta" in the face of opposition from friends, family and colleagues, and in spite of his own deteriorating health.
