in northern france we will do 60 and joining me in the studio to talk about this is who else but scott ross perot our film expert welcome scott and of course the joker here is leading the oscar race with 11 nominations this is a common folk tale a very controversial one at that how did it pull this off you know it's really surprising i think just like even couple of years ago the idea that a comic who would even get nominated for an oscar much less lead the pack. but i think what todd phillips the director of joker did is really interesting i mean this is a. kind of a comic book movie it sort of is telling a story about a comic book and that's you know playing within this shawn or which is the most commercially successful genre of the world right now but the same time if you look a bit deeper this is really a dark psychological story about a man and a society sort of on the edge and it's very much expressive of films from the 1970 s. and so the new hollywood period particularly films from martin scorsese like like king of comedy or taxi driver exactly and i think what joker did is mention c

ross perot from the w. culture good to see you again scott so let's talk about the big winner so. a comic book movie. how did it happen should we be laughing or. should we be worried i don't know it's even a couple years ago to seem ridiculous that a comic book movie would be the oscar front runner. i think what's also interesting is this is such an incredibly successful film which hasn't been the case in the oscars recently with those looking back at the numbers and the last film to make this much money the box office it was an oscar for what it was like lord of the rings. which i think is actually a great thing for the oscars of actually to feel the most people see that's the the the front runner but the interesting movie i think because you're right it is a comic book movie which is for the most successful genre of our times but if you look a bit deeper at the film it's actually very dark psychological study that owes a lot in the way the story is told to the really classic new hollywood films of the 1970 s. particularly martin scorsese's films it's a lot like taxi driver reminds me a lot of the k

greatest swimmers you know samantha ross and things like that who is an olympian kobe bryants one of our toes when it comes to the strain in football he you know scott pendlebury the captain of collingwood which is you know the largest sporting club in astray or so it's run as he's an odd to any and you know the you know they play different sports so is he's focused and respect for the game that allowed him to channel that and develop his own skills say it's certainly something which is which goes beyond sport and those people now you know 20 years along and they have used that teaching from kobe bryant they may not have met the man and that's quite common in some of the social media posts out there that men are met the man but what he meant to them. as they strive to be great in their own journey jerseys emulating you know kobe bryant and he's in the n.b.a. they have been able to do that but now 20 years later they have a quite often and the children of their own you know that that 25 years old 3035 years old and to see someone that helped them you know athletes here in this country and abroad see someone who helped them develop the carriage and wo

scott free if he promised not to interfere in reconstruction again. they were given that assurance. but one of those votes belong to admin ross, senator from kansns, extremely corrupt,t, who had bought his way literally into the senate through bribery. unfortunately, he was put in john f. kennedy's book "profiles encourage" is a courageous man who voted his conscience. we know that book was probably ghost written but it went out under jfk's name. i think part of it may be to have these dixiecrat at that time. but it has lent -- it has sort history.ated a view of especially the history of reconstruction. and personally, mike pence and that editorial in "the wall street journalal" that are referred to, picks up on the scene that admin ross was a profile in courage. we know now through the historians like david stewart who has written on the impeachment of johnson, that in fact admin ross was bribed for his vote. so he was not a profile in courage, he was a profile in corruption. for the republican party today to bring up both the defense of as ann and portray ross honorable person is astounding for the party of l lincoln, for t
