Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:05,739 --> 00:00:07,280
Alison, Antonia. Yes, Brian.
2
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:12,759
You've got to be more careful on the way
you deliver lines and the way you give
3
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:17,000
emphasis to certain words. Because
yesterday, for example... Emphasis, you
4
00:00:17,001 --> 00:00:18,839
I think it's pronounced emphasis.
5
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:24,019
You were saying, in that scene we were
doing, you were saying, what's that on
6
00:00:24,020 --> 00:00:25,070
the road?
7
00:00:25,300 --> 00:00:31,399
Ahead? I know the one you made. The line
actually was, what's that on the road
8
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:32,450
ahead?
9
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:35,400
This is Tammy Davis.
10
00:00:37,740 --> 00:00:41,860
He's just got out of jail and we're
giving him a start.
11
00:00:42,340 --> 00:00:44,990
Trying to go on the straight and narrow,
aren't you?
12
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:46,570
Trying.
13
00:00:46,571 --> 00:00:49,159
Trying. How do you think I've been
doing, Brian?
14
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:52,619
I think you're good, mate. I think
you've got a lot of potential in this
15
00:00:52,620 --> 00:00:57,579
business. So long as you go straight,
you know, just follow that straight old
16
00:00:57,580 --> 00:00:58,840
line, you'll be all right.
17
00:01:00,900 --> 00:01:02,000
Straight and narrow.
18
00:01:08,970 --> 00:01:13,149
There was a thing on the radio one
morning about how the median income for
19
00:01:13,150 --> 00:01:14,670
in New Zealand was $14 ,000.
20
00:01:15,750 --> 00:01:20,809
And I just thought, how does anybody
live on that and support a family? And
21
00:01:20,810 --> 00:01:22,920
no wonder more people don't turn to
crime.
22
00:01:23,570 --> 00:01:24,910
So that was one thought.
23
00:01:25,190 --> 00:01:28,889
And also on this other show that I'd
done, there was a kind of white trash
24
00:01:28,890 --> 00:01:30,470
family who I was really fond of.
25
00:01:31,100 --> 00:01:37,280
And I thought it would be really fun to
do them as a fun version of that.
26
00:01:38,460 --> 00:01:42,860
So all the things kind of came together
into what is Outrageous Fortune.
27
00:01:46,460 --> 00:01:49,000
Cheryl West is the matriarch of this
family.
28
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,799
Wolfgang West is the father. They're a
family that's been involved in crime for
29
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,900
many, many generations.
30
00:01:58,340 --> 00:02:04,479
not petty crime, burglaries and
robberies. They don't deal in drugs,
31
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:05,459
do violence.
32
00:02:05,460 --> 00:02:09,940
They have an old -school kind of code of
morality.
33
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:18,019
During the first episode of the series,
certain events take place that cause
34
00:02:18,020 --> 00:02:24,569
Cheryl... to rethink her family's
position in the West Auckland criminal
35
00:02:24,570 --> 00:02:29,090
fraternity and to change the course of
the whole family's lives.
36
00:02:29,610 --> 00:02:34,969
And the series follows their attempt to
either follow their mother's edict or to
37
00:02:34,970 --> 00:02:37,450
hide what they're really doing from her
mother.
38
00:02:39,410 --> 00:02:44,430
Outrated Fortune is about a bunch of
outlaws trying to make it in.
39
00:02:44,431 --> 00:02:48,659
the straight world and discovering that
actually the straight world is just as
40
00:02:48,660 --> 00:02:53,619
corrupt and that in the end well my take
on it is that in the end it's not about
41
00:02:53,620 --> 00:02:59,279
crime and law it's about love you know
and and that's the thing that holds
42
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:05,179
people together i think cheryl and wolf
are one of those great love affairs one
43
00:03:05,180 --> 00:03:10,259
of those great flawed love affairs you
know they fell in love it seems the
44
00:03:10,260 --> 00:03:13,930
moment they saw each other when they
shagged on the freezer and her dad's
45
00:03:13,931 --> 00:03:18,129
When she was 16 and they'd been together
ever since. And her words, I think, in
46
00:03:18,130 --> 00:03:22,849
the early episodes of it, you know, that
sort of spark that you have in the
47
00:03:22,850 --> 00:03:26,709
early part of a relationship goes away
when you have kids, but it never did
48
00:03:26,710 --> 00:03:33,109
them. Wolf is a
49
00:03:33,110 --> 00:03:39,090
career criminal from West Auckland,
50
00:03:39,270 --> 00:03:43,110
from a family of career criminals.
51
00:03:45,510 --> 00:03:46,670
And he's a thief.
52
00:03:48,390 --> 00:03:49,450
And a pretty good one.
53
00:03:50,150 --> 00:03:51,770
And a family man.
54
00:03:52,550 --> 00:03:56,789
That's what Wolf is. So he loves his
wife and he loves his family and loves
55
00:03:56,790 --> 00:04:00,330
kids. And has a very, very good life.
56
00:04:01,430 --> 00:04:08,109
I think Wolf as a character knows what
the ethics of his society are very
57
00:04:08,110 --> 00:04:09,160
clearly.
58
00:04:10,110 --> 00:04:12,310
And is kind of like a pillar of that
society.
59
00:04:12,780 --> 00:04:15,740
like abides by those ethics very
strongly.
60
00:04:16,420 --> 00:04:19,860
And they're just that you do the right
thing by your own.
61
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,920
Their struggle is the struggle we all
have as families to try and keep
62
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:30,879
How can you love someone and live with
them at the same time when they drive
63
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,130
insane and they won't do what they're
told and they're arguing?
64
00:04:35,280 --> 00:04:37,340
That's what families are all about.
65
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,460
And the West, they do love each other.
66
00:04:43,390 --> 00:04:48,970
But those relationships are tested,
really tested throughout the series.
67
00:04:48,971 --> 00:04:52,889
No, it's me saying it's not all giving
dad an ultimatum like that. Listen, I
68
00:04:52,890 --> 00:04:56,729
changed my life because of you. I turned
my fucking life on its head because of
69
00:04:56,730 --> 00:05:00,149
you. And here you are defending me? Hey,
if your marriage is over, it's over,
70
00:05:00,150 --> 00:05:02,560
okay? Boo -hoo, but we'll all get over
it. We will.
71
00:05:02,910 --> 00:05:03,960
Don't worry.
72
00:05:04,239 --> 00:05:07,069
Just don't fall for this cop bullshit.
It's not bullshit.
73
00:05:07,180 --> 00:05:08,230
It's not bullshit.
74
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,290
It is bullshit.
75
00:05:09,291 --> 00:05:12,339
It's Judd with his balls in his eyes
trying anything that comes into his
76
00:05:12,340 --> 00:05:17,580
head. It's not. And how do you know? I
just... I just fucking know, alright?
77
00:05:17,581 --> 00:05:23,599
What have you been doing? The characters
of Jethro and Van, they're twins,
78
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:24,650
identical twins.
79
00:05:25,460 --> 00:05:26,510
21 years old.
80
00:05:30,220 --> 00:05:33,420
Jethro is... He's training to be a
lawyer.
81
00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:41,649
intelligent um sleeping with his teacher
um so you know he's good with
82
00:05:41,650 --> 00:05:47,669
women he's confident um doesn't wait
word
83
00:05:47,670 --> 00:05:53,449
uh or actions you know he's much more
controlling about what he does he out of
84
00:05:53,450 --> 00:05:59,749
the two he's the more book smart
ferociously independent but also loyal
85
00:05:59,750 --> 00:06:01,570
own way van
86
00:06:06,250 --> 00:06:07,300
He's more direct.
87
00:06:07,650 --> 00:06:09,130
He's not manipulative.
88
00:06:09,790 --> 00:06:13,640
But they do love each other, even though
Jethro's like, man, you're an idiot.
89
00:06:14,110 --> 00:06:18,330
But he's not dumb. He works in a
different way. He's emotionally
90
00:06:18,331 --> 00:06:22,349
Did I miss the bit where somebody says,
does anybody object to this couple?
91
00:06:22,350 --> 00:06:23,400
Yeah.
92
00:06:25,110 --> 00:06:26,430
Answer your question, boy.
93
00:06:26,701 --> 00:06:28,509
Oh, yeah.
94
00:06:28,510 --> 00:06:32,109
We just thought it would skip that part
of the film. They didn't pop the
95
00:06:32,110 --> 00:06:35,370
spontaneous, and that sort of lands them
in a lot of shit.
96
00:06:37,010 --> 00:06:43,189
What do you find he has to try and get
out of more often than not on his own or
97
00:06:43,190 --> 00:06:46,470
with the help of Munter, his mate?
98
00:06:47,830 --> 00:06:48,880
Fuck you.
99
00:06:49,110 --> 00:06:51,460
Fuck all of you. I don't need this shit
in my life.
100
00:06:52,690 --> 00:06:57,530
I play Theodore Ted West, also known as
Grandpa.
101
00:06:58,690 --> 00:07:05,470
And he's Wolf's father, Cheryl's.
102
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:06,810
Father -in -law.
103
00:07:07,220 --> 00:07:08,960
And everybody else's grandfather.
104
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,740
And he's an ex -crim. He has a dead
wife.
105
00:07:16,260 --> 00:07:21,079
And he's come to live with the family
because he's accidentally burnt his own
106
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,259
unit down. For a packet of smokes, she
rooted him then and there on top of the
107
00:07:25,260 --> 00:07:26,310
freezer.
108
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,280
Rita never bought peas from them again.
109
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,370
She's got a lovely, lovely relationship
with Grandpa.
110
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:39,139
They're... They're a real dynamic duo
and they've got a real deep love and
111
00:07:39,140 --> 00:07:45,580
caring for each other. She really
understands him, but more importantly,
112
00:07:45,700 --> 00:07:50,679
she feels that he really understands her
because quite often she feels like
113
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:56,219
she's in a loony bin and she's the only
sane one in her family. And he is a real
114
00:07:56,220 --> 00:08:02,479
sounding board for her and he gives her
hope that she's not sort of alone in
115
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:03,680
this world and there are.
116
00:08:03,681 --> 00:08:07,299
There are people that he can talk to.
They're on to one another. They're quite
117
00:08:07,300 --> 00:08:08,350
bad people.
118
00:08:08,620 --> 00:08:15,519
And to some degree, he's able to
manipulate Loretta in order to
119
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:21,839
do what he wants. One of the things I
loved about Rita
120
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:26,060
was the way she never let a chance go
by.
121
00:08:27,620 --> 00:08:28,670
Hiya.
122
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:30,520
Hang on, let me start again.
123
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,870
Hello, I'm Siobhan and I'm playing
Pascal on Outrageous Fortune.
124
00:08:34,700 --> 00:08:39,200
She's not a generic blonde bimbo type.
125
00:08:39,780 --> 00:08:45,100
And the role of Pascal could easily have
been a bit of a thankless role.
126
00:08:45,940 --> 00:08:49,840
Siobhan has graced her with such warmth.
127
00:08:50,540 --> 00:08:51,800
You're getting married?
128
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,010
I'm so happy!
129
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,409
She just says stuff that I'd never say,
like... Because I hate conflict and I
130
00:08:57,410 --> 00:09:02,909
hate arguing and I hate, like, if I'm
nervous or whatever, I just laugh. Or if
131
00:09:02,910 --> 00:09:07,349
I'm angry, I just laugh. And Pascal
doesn't. She just, if she has an emotion
132
00:09:07,350 --> 00:09:11,069
if she thinks some way about something,
she just says it. I can't put him in a
133
00:09:11,070 --> 00:09:12,120
fuck -off.
134
00:09:12,121 --> 00:09:13,769
Keep going.
135
00:09:13,770 --> 00:09:14,930
Go. Keep going.
136
00:09:16,690 --> 00:09:22,090
Pascal had to be shameless and brave.
137
00:09:28,470 --> 00:09:32,830
And that's a big ask for a young
actress.
138
00:09:32,831 --> 00:09:38,969
What I responded to in the material, I
think, is I just had never seen anything
139
00:09:38,970 --> 00:09:42,400
quite like this before. I mean, I've
done quite a lot of work in comedy.
140
00:09:42,401 --> 00:09:46,009
I've done quite a lot of work in drama.
But I don't think I'd worked on anything
141
00:09:46,010 --> 00:09:51,890
that brought those two things together
in the way that these scripts do.
142
00:09:52,090 --> 00:09:53,730
And also, characters.
143
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,050
They were great characters. I could see
them on the page.
144
00:09:57,051 --> 00:10:00,639
And when you can see it on the page like
that, then you know it's going to be
145
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:01,519
fun to do.
146
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,280
The three things that you need.
147
00:10:03,560 --> 00:10:07,699
You need funny scripts. I know it sounds
really obvious, but the scripts have to
148
00:10:07,700 --> 00:10:11,040
be funny. Then you need to cast actors
who know how to be funny.
149
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:15,150
Because I've worked with really fine
actors who didn't know how to be funny.
150
00:10:15,151 --> 00:10:19,579
It's just a thing that some actors have
and some actors don't. And the third
151
00:10:19,580 --> 00:10:21,339
thing, I think, is you need directors.
152
00:10:21,340 --> 00:10:25,500
who are aware of the comedy potential
and the comedic potential of the actors.
153
00:10:51,529 --> 00:10:55,630
And you had the line, what is this thing
called love?
154
00:10:55,830 --> 00:10:59,230
And it came out, what is this thing
called love?
155
00:11:00,190 --> 00:11:01,270
That is embarrassing.
156
00:11:04,870 --> 00:11:09,050
Well, you know, a couple of them look a
bit gay to me. They must be, you know.
157
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,840
Who is this guy?
158
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,480
You and my brain.
159
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,780
You and my brain.
160
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,940
I'll be right back.
161
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:52,860
this program, the Brian Sargent show.
162
00:11:52,861 --> 00:11:54,769
I think it's a good move.
