Popcorn Taxi | The Square
This week, Popcorn Taxi showcased new Australian film The Square, a crime thriller written by Joel Edgerton (recognisable for his prolific acting work in many a local production as well as notable international ones such as the Star Wars prequels), and directed by his brother Nash (an Australian film industry veteran, involved in seemingly every single production ever mounted in this country if you go by his IMDB listing).
Also there to talk about the film were producer Louise Smith and editor Luke Doolan.
They came well-prepared, with a DVD containing deleted scenes, animatics, shot tests and even a “mood” trailer that they’d cut using shots from dozens of other films when they were in the planning stages. The film opens in a couple of weeks time.
Who you shooting for these days Will? Been a while since I’ve seen you at a gig!

The gigs have dropped off as my work has gotten more frantic over the last couple of months. I still manage to get out occasionally though, still shooting for Brag.
