Starting point is 00:00:00 What's up QAA listeners? The fun games have begun. I found a way to connect to the internet. I'm sorry, boy. Welcome listener to Premium Chapter 184 of the Q&On Anonymous podcast, the My Son Hunter movie night episode. As always, we are your host, Jake Rockatansky, Annie Kelly, Julian Fields, and Travis View. Listener, we're tired, okay? We're back from tour.
Starting point is 00:00:35 It was lovely. Thank you, everybody who came out to see us in Portland, Seattle, and Eugene. But, you know, we're kind of old and our bodies hurt. And this movie, I thought it would be a fun little time, like a South. You know, I could just lay back and enjoy myself. But no, it made me feel nauseous, unfulfilled. And it was horrifying. However, to freshen up the lot and to give us a British perspective on the movie,
Starting point is 00:01:07 thank God we have Annie because I'm so sick of Jake and Travis. Thank God we had Annie to explain why the fuck we have a British Hunty Biden. Hunty Biden in this movie is British somehow. And he is the nastiest looking creature I have ever seen. I am personally worried for that man's health. Not Hunter Biden's comparatively. I hope he gets help and the help he needs. He is a weird, nasty, golem-like creature.
Starting point is 00:01:40 And he makes Hunter Biden look like a god, like just the most handsome, cool guy on Earth. It is one of the rare instances in which the real person is far more handsome than the actor playing him. Yeah, this is one of the few movies where they made, somehow made the main character's uglier, which shows you, I guess, that it's propaganda because usually they'll, you know, even if it's subtle, they'll err towards making them more like aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Yeah. The only really convincing moment throughout this entire movie is when the actor
Starting point is 00:02:15 playing Hunter Biden smokes crack. It really looks like he's smoking crack in the movie. And I wondered for a second if maybe he's that kind of method actor where he was like, no, get me some crack. Give me some real crack to smoke Have a nice little relaxing smoke A crack Yeah I mean it's funny that you should say that Jake Because Lawrence Fox
Starting point is 00:02:36 The actor who plays Hunter Biden in this I think actually bears a As a person bears some resemblance to Hunter Biden So Lawrence Fox comes from this old And ancient English acting dynasty Like literally I'm talking like over a century old They were like appearing on stage
Starting point is 00:02:54 Before films were even invented And they're very old, very kind of rich, very aristocratic. They kind of married into kind of all these sorts of like Victorian industrialists and stuff like that. So he comes from money, he went to Harrow, you know. What's that? It's like Eaton, but poshia. Okay. That actually makes sense to me because in many ways the movie is structured like a play.
Starting point is 00:03:19 What kind of play? What kind of nightmares play? Like, if you were doing this as a play, you know, the main set piece would be Hunter Biden and his father, Joe Biden, sitting on one side of the stage, the spotlight comes up. They're supposed to be in a limousine. And they're talking about all of the, you know, the illegal, allegedly illegal things that Hunter Biden engaged in. And then the spotlight goes down on them and another spotlight comes up on another side of the stage. And it's two people acting out, you know, the events that they're talking about. I actually totally agree. You're right. But it also doesn't make sense as a play. It's awful.
Starting point is 00:04:01 But it doesn't make sense as a movie. It doesn't make sense as a play. It's an affront to all media and content. And honestly, minutes spent on earth doing something. I think there's this kind of a good story where it's like, this kind of story of, I guess, yeah, which, you know, kind of Lawrence Fox inhabiting the role, this kind of son from this incredibly powerful and wealthy family. who strikes out and disappoints, right? Like, I think, you know, the kind of prodigal son, it's an ancient story and it's quite a good one. But obviously, you kind of sacrifice any kind of genuinely interesting storytelling when you turn it into cheap propaganda, which is what the movie's ultimate goal is to do,
Starting point is 00:04:41 right? It doesn't, it's not interest in telling a story, it wants to sabotage Joe Biden. And in doing that, it kind of like, therefore can't actually. tell the interesting story that's at the heart of the idea. It's a play if there were some stage hands carrying in giant cardboard clip art like every five minutes. Oh my God, I know. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:05:04 That was so bad. And they like forgot after a third like through the movie, they forgot that they were doing this kind of really low budget sort of like wannabe Adam McKay style of filmmaking where there are like cartoon graphics. You know, like Hunter does a line of cocaine and there's like a bad cartoon heart that starts beating really fast and... He has a conversation with a dog in the form of thought bubbles. Yes. The heart goes faster because he's doing cocaine and he calms it down by smoking crack.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Correct. Which is right. They lack even a tiny understanding of the drugs or anything. It's it's monumentally insane. And yes, Travis, there's a scene where he talks. talks to, like, a small dog. It's a papillon, by the way. The only redeeming part of the movie, he talks to a small little papillon.
Starting point is 00:05:58 But there's no words. It's just, like, thought bubbles appearing above their heads. Like, could they not get the audio guy that day? Like, what? I don't know. Just baffling choice after baffling choice. I do think they're trying to do a kind of, like, you know, a hyper-kinetic kind of, like, quick cuts, crazy, cartoony graphics, that kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:06:19 But, like, it is uneven. Like they kind of like don't do it throughout throughout the entire film and even way. Yeah. And I think the problem is that Gina Carrano is narrating the whole thing. And I don't think like I couldn't believe that she had been an actual TV shows before this. Like Lawrence Fox, like for all his faults, you know, he was in, you know, before he kind of had his, his radicalization spin, which by the way, he literally described myself in 2019 as getting radicalized by YouTube videos about political correctness. So, like, honestly, one of, like, the cheapest ways you can, like, get radicalized. But he was an actual actor before this.
Starting point is 00:06:57 He was in Robert Altman movies. He was, you know, uh, yeah, yeah, he was in actual movies. Okay, well, then let's, let's, before we jump into, to just how the movie opens and all these things, please explain how this, this truly vile-looking fellow, a British man, ended up playing Hunter Biden. And why? Why? So, yeah, so as I say, Lawrence Fox, he comes from the Fox acting family dynasty. I think his sister is also an actress and, yeah, his father and mother too. And he's mostly taken roles playing, well, he's in Gosford Park, Robert Altman's Gosford Park, kind of playing these sorts of indolent children of the upper class. And often he's in historical movies kind of playing traumatized British military men as well.
Starting point is 00:07:48 And he was kind of one of those people who's just, you know, he's just a kind of solid character actor. You'll see him. He was on Lewis, which was a really long-running television drama, detective drama here. He was like the sidekick in that. So he was, you know, one of those faces that you would recognize. You may not know his name, but you'd be like, oh, I know that guy. And yeah, funnily enough, I actually did meet him once as a teenager when I was working on a film set for Poirot. And he was like playing. Go on. Playing a drunk aristocrat and that. He gets a lot of these roles, kind of like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:20 But he gained wider attention for his political views when he did an episode of Question Time, which is a political panel show here. And he was asked a question about a really basic question because this was when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had just announced that they were stepping down from royal duties. And he kind of just went on a bit of a rant at an audience member who suggested that
Starting point is 00:08:42 Megan Markle's treatment by the British press, which was famously not friendly, might have been because of her race. He kind of just totally went off on this audience member saying, you know, the UK's not racist. It's a lovely, friendly, welcoming country to everyone kind of thing. And then actually, I think, accused the audience member of being racist to him for being white. It was a bit of a mess. Anyway, after that, he was dropped by his talent agency, that whole fiasco. And, yeah, he kind of started doing interviews saying he'd been radicalized against wokeness, and he was on a crusade against that.
Starting point is 00:09:19 Interestingly, one time, this involved him. Did you guys see that Sam Mende's movie, 1917? No, I did not see that. No, I didn't see that. Oh, it's a really good, really good World War I movie. It includes a Sikh soldier in one scene, literally one scene. And, yeah, Lawrence Fox went off on that, saying that it was an example of forced diversity being shoved down our throats.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Wow. And then just like naturally just got like told there were like, yeah, thousands and thousands of Sikh officers fighting in World War II, World War I even. Like, I think they were like, they made up 10% of like Indian soldiers in World War I. And why does he look so bad? I mean, is he a drug addicts personally? Is he an actual indolent drug addicts? Well.
