Summary

With Mark deciding he simply hasn’t had enough of the UK’s waterways and heading back out to join Simon, Robbie Collin and James King are stepping in to co-captain The Take podcasting vessel. James sits down with the funny and philosophical French writer, director and actor, Louis Garrel, to discuss his latest film ‘The Innocent’, a comedy-heist-come-family-farce that’s far more personal than you’d first think. Robbie reviews ‘Scrapper’, a sunny, imaginative kitchen-sink drama starring Harris Dickinson; and ‘Theater Camp’, a Young Hollywood-packed comedy about the eccentric staff of a rundown theatre camp, who band together with the beloved founder’s crypto-bro son in an attempt to keep it afloat. All in all, a great week in movie going.

0:00.0	Robby, great to see you. Great sea gyms. King and Colin in for Mayo and Commode.
0:16.4	Listen, I am aware that King Colin does sound a bit like a wacky early 90s British comedy
0:22.0	in which a hapless milkman called Colin, probably played by Eric Eidl, discovers that he's
0:27.3	next in line for the throne with hilarious consequences, co-starring Richard Griffiths and Elizabeth
0:32.6	Hurley. That's a film we can only dream of. I'd watch that. I know, I would. I'm probably
0:38.0	love it. I'm quite tempted by it, but unfortunately it's only fantasy. These are the real films,
0:43.5	Robby, that we'll be talking about this week. Yes, so we're talking about Scrapper,
0:47.4	theatre camp and the Innocent, and we also have a very special guest connected to the last of those.
0:52.9	Yes, Louis Guerrell, who stars in the Innocent, co-wrote it, directed it as well, extra takes to
0:58.9	at least an extra 90 minutes of this nonsense weekend watch list, we cannot list too. So five of
1:06.2	which are great. Three, you'll hate bonus reviews. And in Take It All Leave It, you decide we're watching
1:13.1	Apple TV pluses silo. One of us has been consumed by that series. Yes. Find out which one
1:22.5	later. And Pretentious Moire, of course, one of my favourite features. I somehow have managed
1:27.6	to escape. Originally, it was going to be for both of us. Yes. So you would be tested, I would be
1:32.5	tested. And then literally minutes ago, I was told that it's only you. So I've escaped it.
1:38.4	But you will be tackling that feature today, Pretentious Moire. And then one frame back
1:42.8	this week is inspired by theatre camps. So we're looking at films and TV shows about theatre kids.
1:51.2	You can of course support us via Apple podcasts or head to extra takes.com for non-fruit related
1:58.0	devices. And of course, if you're already a Vanguardista, as always, we salute you. You off to Venice
2:06.7	soon. I am off to Venice. Yes. So Venice Film Festival, that must start one a few days
2:11.2	time next week. Yes, it's on Wednesday of next week. And it's yeah, we talked a bit about the
2:19.6	active strike and the writer's strike on last week's show. And my assumption was always that
