Rating: MA15+Staring: James Franco, Amber Tamblyn, Kate MaraDirector: Danny BoyleBiographyRating: 8 ½ stars out of 10

127 Hours

MOUNTAIN climber Aron Ralston is an extraordinary human being with an amazing life that makes him a ¥ tting candidate to have his incredible story told on the big screen

And in an unusual change of pace, Slumdog Millionaire director Danny Boyle is the person responsible for bringing this fantastic yarn to life in the ¥ lm 127 Hours.

Making the trifecta, very talented actor James Franco is up to the task of doing justice to the role of Aron Ralston.

Ralston made world-wide news broadcasts in 2003 when he was forced to amputate his lower right arm with a blunt knife after a rock fell on it while he was canyoneering in a remote part of the US state of Utah.

He was trapped for more

than ¥ ve days with a limited canister of water, in extremely cold conditions and seemingly without any hope of rescue as he had not informed anyone of his expedition.

As he knew no-one was looking for him, he had to make hard decisions that eventually re� ected his depth of character.

His ultimate self-amputation under gruelling conditions was set against a backdrop of delirium created by lack of � uids and trauma from his trapped limb.

Boyle had wanted to tackle a ¥ lm version of Ralston’s autobiographical book, Between a Rock and a Hard Place, for some time.

After his Academy Award success with Slumdog Millionaire, he was obviously able to devote his considerable talents to a more introspective project.

His transition from book to screen was not an easy task, but he has graphically portrayed

Ralston’s thoughts that were created by his predicament.

While the amputation was the pivotal point of the news reports at the time, it is not the only focal point of the movie.

Although there is a healthy chunk of suspense created as the character of Ralston heads towards the inevitable decision, it is his thought processes and self analysis that is the meatier part of the screenplay.

Boyle uses � ashbacks and delirious dream sequences to illustrate Ralston’s thoughts.

As in the actual situation, Boyle punctuates the story with a narrative from Ralston’s character as he records his thoughts and messages to family and friends on his video camera.

Franco’s portrayal of Ralston is one of this ¥ lm season’s acting highlights and is well deserving of his nomination of best actor for the forthcoming Oscars.

He will be familiar to audiences for a variety of roles

from the recent Eat Pray Love and the Spiderman trilogy, Milk and Pineapple Express.

Franco is an intellectual who takes his craft very seriously and periodically returns to studying to expand his skill’s base.

In short, he is an actor’s actor and the perfect choice to tackle the demanding role of Ralston.

His convincing portrayal required long periods of intense and close-up scrutiny, leaving no room for error.

He is helped by great work from the production crew, especially the make-up, music and editing departments.

The location must have been di« cult to work in for both sides of the camera, but the realistic claustrophobic feel is reward for their e© orts.

Franco’s input locks in my choices of Best Actors in this month’s Academy Awards as he joins Natalie Portman in her work on Black Swan.

THE fourth and � nal edition of the Summer In The Parks’ mini concerts � nished in � ne style last Friday night.

On a balmy evening amongst the elms, � rst class acts Michelle Meehan, Urban Creatures and the Josh Owen Band, drew easily the big-gest crowd (conservative estimates began at 400) of the month-long program, who were treated to a tasty selection of folk and funk.

According to SITP talent scout Colin Thompson, there is no classier musician than Owen, and he wasn’t wrong, while Meehan and Thompson’s Creatures won themselves new fans.

All in all, the entire SITP series was a treat for the eye and ear, so hats o� to all who helped bring it all together, and of course the hundreds of music lovers who rocked up to Rosalind Park.

Without your support, these things don’t get o� the ground, and this one de� nitely � ew.

Can’t wait to hear who’s booked in for next summer.

THE Big Day Out is exactly that, a bloody big day out. And this year was de� nitely anoth-er ball-tearin’ biggie.

Although the BDO 2011 will hardly go down in the event’s 20 year history as the greatest ever line up, it still packed enough highlights to woo even the hardest of rock hearts.

My mum always told me to � nish on a positive note, so I’ll unleash the bad press � rst.

Tool were disappointing.While hardly a “singles band”, Maynard’s

mob delivered a more theatrical than festi-val performance- nine songs in 75 minutes would push the patience of even Mars Volta

devotees. While Tool seamlessly matched their

oeuvre with admittedly breathtaking visu-als, it seemed a touch out of sync with the whole shorts n’ sandals festival vibe.

A bigger downer was missing out on Gypsy And The Cat, Little Red and Children Collide.

A word of advice about driving from Benders to Flemington Racecourse: the queue outside the parking lot moves slower than rigor mortis, so bring a pack of cards and a heap of patience.

Once inside though, the hits kept on a comin’.

Retro rockers Wolfmother and Air-bourne did exactly what is said on their tins. Neither are breaking the mould of original-ity – Airbourne are unashamedly carrying ACDC’s baton of ballsy rock – but both de-livered that well-worn cliche, a “rockin’ set”.

WITH over 1,000 faintings and 40,000 cases of sunburn, it’s safe to say that Big Day Out was absolutely sizzling this year.

That said, some incredible international bands, superb locals and e� ective hydration combined to make it the best festival expe-rience of my life thus far.

It got o� to a slow start. Earmu� s should have been given out at the entrance to The Vines, they really are the most terrible band to come out of our country. Little Red were also a bit of a letdown, while I don’t hate their music, their live performance was drab and uninspring.

Dead Letter Circus were the � rst high-light of the day with an intense set, inspiring

multiple mosh pits and earning the band a lot of respect at their � rst Big Day Out ap-pearance.

Exhausted after Dead Letter, we went and soaked ourselves in water and watched a bit of Airbourne before heading to the Green Stage to party hard with Andrew W.K.. Anyone who is aware of his music would know that his life revolves around partying and having a good time, something that comes out in his live performance.

Complimented by an explosive band and a stunning, hard-partying female, W.K. was completely o� -tap.

A trip to the misting tent and a brief en-counter with bizarre South African hip-hop group, Die Antwoord, and it was time for my favourite band on the bill, the titanic alter-native metallers, Deftones.

Far from disappointing, they blew my expectations out of the water, playing songs from their broad back catalogue and

from Justin Hawkins’ stylist and a voice made from Mocato and gravel, you cannot take your eyes o� lead singer Joel O’Kee� e for a second.

Not content with the standard singing and guitar strumming routine, O’Kee� e not only scaled the Blue Stage roof, but show-ered the front row with almost an entire slab of Carlton Draught tinnies, as he used his melon as a can opener.

While Airbourne borrow heavily from rock giants of the past, their numerous stage antics are hardly lacking in authenticity.

On the same stage later in the day was man of equal unmissability, Iggy Pop.

Looking like a veined brown leather wallet wrapped in skin tight jeans, there is a bit of novelty value with the 63-year-old grandfather of rock, despite his undoubted place in its history – you simply can’t help but look and wonder “How much longer can he keep this up?”

A Pop gig is a true spectacle: a couple of times he downed tools and took o� for a blissful Sunday afternoon stroll through the photography pit, hugging and high-� ving everyone in sight– except those grumpy se-curity guards.

Although immensely entertaining, it just fell short of the highlight of the day, LCD Soundystem in the Boiler Room.

The best thing about an LCD perfor-mance is the fresh arrangements they bring to their biggest hits. While signature tune “Daft Punk Is Playing At My House” took � ight when a massive disco ball hanging from the ceiling light up, recent track “You Wanted A Hit” nearly brought the entire structure to the ground.

James Murphy, you will be missed. Special mentions also to the funky but

delivering them with perfect execution. The mosh was very rough and incredibly hot, but when they went into Passenger... lets just say that I wasn’t aware that you could experience chills in 40 degree weather.

Again, I could barely breathe after Def-tones, so I unfortunately had to exit the D barrier for Birds of Tokyo, but heard the ma-jority of their set from the food and drink lines.

I came back to the mainstage for a very entertaining John Butler Trio and then the legendary Iggy Pop and The Stooges– cracking hilarious jokes and proving that they’ve still got everything they’re famous for nearly 50 years since their formation.

And then there was Rammstein. On their own worth the $160 admission

price, those crazy Germans put on a show like nobody else. Explosions, lights, geysers and lots and lots of � re, it was the great-est stage spectacle I’ve ever seen. Funnily

enough, the climax of the show was met with an orgasm, from a giant penis-shaped cannon - covering the crowd in white foam and confetti.

Up next were festival headliners Tool. The prog-metal out� t also had a great visual spectacle and awesome sound, but they lacked the fun that Rammstein provided.

Don’t get me wrong, Tool are one of my favourite bands of all time, but after Rammstein put everyone on a massive high, everyone just wanted more fun.

After catching a little of M.I.A. we were on the train home, tired, sunburnt and sore but very, very satis� ed.

The Bottom Line: The heat didn’t even matter, some of the � nest performances I’ve ever seen.

A great day. Soundwave have a hard standard to meet this year.

THE Big Day Out circus has rolled in and out of Melbourne for another year. And b.entertained’s music writers Ben Cameron and Jake Schatz braved the extreme 40º conditions and threw themselves into the music wonderland that is the Big Day Out. Here comes the Gen X vs Gen Y perspective...

THE best gelati in Australia, I used to think, was to be found in Adelaide’s Hind-ley Street, down the end of town where you could also smell the hops at the West End brewery.That hops smell was stom-ach-churning, pervasive and cloying, so it was always a relief to open the door into the Flash gelateria, and perch on one of their high stools in anticipation of a scoop or two of their superb frozen treats.

Lemon, pistachio, hazelnut and chocolate (the standards), served in a tiny little bowl, with a swirl of whipped cream on top, eaten with a delicate little spoon that seemed to make it last longer – it wall all so European and sophisticated for ordi-nary Adelaide.

All these years later, Steve Virtue of Favourite Flavours tells me I was probably drooling over only half the delights of Italian ice-cream – the water-based style, not the dairy one.

There are still those who peer into the display cabinet at his Mitch-ell Street shop and are surprised that the ice-cream looks so ice-creamy, not pale and watery like sorbet.

Steve purses his lips and barely suppresses a sigh, as he instructs me in the � ner points of gelato. You can have fruit-based, and you can have dairy-based, but what is not nego-tiable is the consistency. Neither too hard, nor too soft, the ideal gelato, according to Steve, is “warm”, not icy, so you can savour the � avour.

Actually, the really � ne points – about how exactly he achieves such � avours as pavlova or bubblegum – are a trade secret. No one, not even his nearest and dearest, is privy to what goes on in Steve’s head as he plans for a new � avour.

Originally from Shepparton, Steve has worked in transport in various guises, before settling back in Bendigo with his wife Dorothy and daughter Shaye.

Favourite Flavours is now in its

seventh season, set up to � ll a gap in Bendigo’s market.

“He just wanted to make ice-cream”, Shaye says of her dad’s pas-sion for his business.

They had wanted to provide a mini-version of the famous David Jones food hall, catering � rst and foremost for the quality end of the ice-cream market, with the extra at-traction of a range of gourmet gifts.

“We didn’t have anything much to compare it with,” Steve says, re-membering the early days of set-ting up shop. “Food is fashionable, it changes and evolves, but what doesn’t change is the quality,” he says.

They call their gelato an “artisan product”, meaning that it’s not made to a formula but a recipe, and, as with all good food, how the recipe turns out will depend on what goes into it on the day.

While some of the ingredients will not change, using seasonal fruit, for example, will alter the result. Then, there’s knowing just the right mix: a raspberry and mint gelato has to balance the sweet ripeness against the fresh bite of the mint.

This is where it gets tricky and that’s exactly the word Steve uses to describe his secret processes.

Someone recently dared him to try to create a jam donut gelato – and he did. The taste is dough-and-jam, but the consistency is ice-cream – quite weird.

He pauses quite a while, search-ing for the right word to describe what happens when he gets the � avour just right, then � nds it: “It’s a trick”.

Behind this gloriously-coloured array is some � ne machinery, includ-

ing the display cabinet with its two compressors that “rock”, in order to keep the gelati at the correct tem-perature. Optimum serving tem-perature is -14.5 degrees centigrade, while it’s stored just below that, at -17 degrees.

Gelato takes about 24 hours to make, from start to � nish, and it can store more or less inde� nitely, be-cause it’s “very stable”.

But storage of something as de-lectable as gelato is not really a prob-lem. There are people in Bendigo – who shall remain nameless – who come in, religiously, once a week, for their double-scoop cone of a favou-rite � avour.

Last week, a lad who had just returned from holidays with his parents, came in for his treat and declared he had not tasted as good

anywhere in Europe. And there have been occasions when people have been moved to tears, literally, by a spoonful of pistachio ice-cream. Like Marcel Proust’s madeleine, the gela-to melting on the tongue unleashed a � ow of childhood memories.

For some of the more exotic � a-vours (such as pink grapefruit and campari), you’ll have to book a table at one of the Bendigo restaurants that come to Steve for a unique ge-lato. One of his trickier (there’s that word again) commissions was mak-ing a gelato from a sparkling shiraz: he says that one has to be consumed within 12 hours of making, or it loses its � zz.

Steve’s guiding gelato principle is: “Families should be able to enjoy something as simple as ice-cream without it hurting their budget”.

WELCOME back 14 time grammy winner and uber poppin’ hip hop artist, wannabe singer and super producer Kanye West.

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is Kanye’s � fth o� cial studio album and � rst proper hip hop album following his bland vocoder heavy 808’s and Heartbreak album from 2008.

Kanye has already released three singles Power, Runaway and Monster, dropping tracks regularly since July, preparing us for this long player.

At 13 songs long, and featuring production by such producer/artists as the RZA and No I.D. and featuring

artists such as Kid Cudi, Raekwon, Jay Z, John Legend and current fave Nicki Minaj, this is truly a producer’s dream project, enlisting a preferred team of creators and performers.

For example the track “All of the Lights”, West enlisted 11 guest vocalists, such as Alicia Keys, Fergie, Elton John, Elly Jackson “La Roux” and Rihanna, who sings the song’s hook.

Chris Rock even lends his distinctive voice. So many cooks in the kitchen, but all controlled by

chief in charge, Iron Chef Kanye West.With lengthy songs – the majority are over � ve

minutes long and some stretch to nine-plus minutes–that breathe and tell their story in full, yet because they are individually so good, I’m still left wanting more, just one more loop.

Kanye has proven since album #1 that he has talent

to spare and great depth to his music. O¥ ering interesting sounds and music, this is where

Kanye di¥ ers from many of the other hip hop artists making music today.

For a lot of artists they o¥ er only one extended single and call it an album.

Not Kanye. Some songs work well next to each other but each is

a stand alone Kanye classic. For those uninitiated with Hip Hop, Kanye is a good

introduction to the genre. He is 100 times more interesting than cornbread

Eminem, but not too challenging, such as some of the other more underground artists on the hip hop frontier.

The best thing here is that if you like this album then you will very likely enjoy his � rst three albums.

All worthy of a spin.

hit themother-load

Speci� cally, Candy makes ephemeral art – art that is eeting, transitory, that lasts a � nite amount of time. Her work says some-thing de� nitive, commenting on the culture in which we live.

That’s the feeling you get about her work when you meet this energetic Chewton art-ist. We meet at Eaglehawk tip – ahem, Eagle-hawk Recycle Shop – which is Candy’s studio and soon-to-be exhibition space.

Over the last 3 months Candy has been working on a giant public sculpture, 6-8 hours a day, up to 3 days a week. The proj-ect has been sponsored by the Recycle Shop with an artist-in-residency, so she can make Now & Then, a “3.5m � gurative steel sculpture of a seated woman”, covered with the insides of TVs, computers and electrical equipment: aka your motherboards!

“Hopefully it will get people thinking about their relationship to consumerism and technology – and about their recycling op-tions,” Candy tells me in the shadow of her sculpture, which sits in meditative lotus posi-tion, adjacent to the tip’s drive-in lanes.

If Candy’s giant lady rings a few bells, you’d be right. Her � rst incarnation was part of 2008’s One Woman-One Colour, a “multi-installation project” at various Bendigo art venues.

Then the piece was called The Grass Is Greener, and showed in Rosalind Park Con-servatory. It was an organic statement about environment and womanhood. For that show the sculpture possessed a bigger bum, bigger bosom and was covered in grass, grown in over the sculpture’s steel-and-chicken-wire frame.

During Candy’s � rst tip residency when

she made that steel frame she became in-spired to reincarnate the piece. “I kept see-ing this landscape of TVs, and the process of pulling apart for recycling – it was futuristic!

“Such an indication of consumerism and capitalism, and how much waste comes out of that.

“So I thought I’d turn her into the op-posite of the organic � gure I’d made, into a computerised icon of technology – a smoth-ering of technology on a human being!”

Being near the sculpture as it is now has quite an e� ect. She towers over you, looking down with her eyes made from speakers, cra-dling an old PC monitor, green in colour from her motherboard skin, jigsawed together with plastic cable ties.

Supervisor in e-waste Tim Couwenberg helped to supply Candy with the PCBs. He estimates there are more than 300 mother-boards involved. Witnessing its evolution over the past few years, Tim says he got some great comments from tip patrons – “They wanna take it home for their front yard!”

“She’s been made within a very male zone”, says Candy, marvelling at how the sculpture has strangely come together, with one foot in the art world, the other planted � rmly in the everyday of industrial waste and recyling.

She’s grateful not only towards the Cen-tre’s sponsorship but also to how the workers have contributed – and taken to this decid-edly arty female intruder.

“It’s a real marriage of two worlds; they love her! And put their 2 cents in too!”, she laughs.

Now & Then will be part of the 2011 Ea-glehawk Dahlia & Arts Festival in a drive-thru exhibition at the Recycle Shop. It will then travel to Castlemaine State Festival, to be in-stalled in the Theatre Royal courtyard.

And then? “I’d love to put her in a major sculpture

show like the McClelland,” says Candy, con-templating her sculpture’s future, as she looms over us, quietly contemplating ours…

CENTRAL Victorian Candy Stevens has been a professional artist for 20 years. The new gallery administrator at Phyllis Palmer Gallery, she likes to build BIG THINGS for public spaces…

THE place to be is the Golden Vine tomor-row arvo, as the second Bendigo Blues and Roots Festival fundraiser kicks o� from 3pm.

Some of the names on the quality bill include Andrew Higgs Band, The Rhythm Kings and Tully Sumner.

Here’s a red hot tip: b.entertained sug-gests you check out the dynamic Bones Blackwood, a one-man tour de force who knocked the crowd dead at the Basement Bar late last year.

Festival organiser Colin Thompson urges local music fans to get on board.

“Aside from the fact that you’ll be con-tributing to the establishment of a great annual festival for Bendigo for many years to come, you’ll be able to partake in a wide cross-section of performers, both local and visiting,” he says.

“You will also get a preview of the kind of great vibes and amazing talent

this festival will deliver in November.“I’m particularly pumped about put-

ting on a show in the Golden Vine again.The Vine as a venue has always meant a lot to Bendigo’s music community.

“It’s great to see it come back into the fold as a consistent music-hosting venue.”

So get yourself down to the Vine for “15 bands for 15 bucks” from 3pm to 11.30pm. You know it makes sense.

BENDIGO country music singer Kim Ritchie came away with more than happy memories from Tamworth this year.

Her singing talent earned her third place in the o� cial Country Karaoke contest held each year.

Kim is a regular concert performer in our patch, but romped to a place singing Patsy Cline’s Crazy and Celine Dion’s Power of Love in Australia’s country music capital.

Originally from Pyramid Hill, Kim learned to play the piano at three.

Then came violin and guitar by seven.

She began entering talent

competitions aged 11, an experience which has obviously paid o� .

Country music has always held a draw for Kim.

“I have always liked it,” she said.

“My favourite singer was Slim Dusty.

“Nowadays I like the music of Adam Harvey.”

Not only did Kim bring home the prize from 21 fellow competitors, she also met some of her heroes.

“I met Adam Harvey, and the Sunny Cowgirls,” she said.

“The Sunny Cowgirls were genuinely interested to chat.

“It was a great experience.”

Kim Ritchie plays the Drovers Arms, Goornong on February 12.

MIKE and Stu from Phoenix FM’s hip hop show “This or That” go face to face over their favourite all time tracks.

1. All Mine – PortisheadRelax, re� ect and retreat from the world music.

2. L.E.S. Artistes – SantigoldFun, fresh album � lled with hip hop, dub, electro with a pop lashing. Ideal for training.

3. Waltz #2 – Elliot SmithHaunting, ethereal and raw emotion. Genius musician taken too soon.

4. It Ain’t Hard To Tell – NasThe 1994 “Illmatic” album � ipped the script on hip hop. Any track o� this album could make my list. Let’s go with “It Ain’t Hard To Tell”, owing to the smooth Human Nature by Michael Jackson sample.

5. Rockit – Herbie HancockClassic early piece of turntablism from ‘83 by Gramdmixer DXT, hearing the scratching on this set my trajectory for hip hop whilst my peers went the Cold Chisel or metal path.

6. Desire – Pharoahe MonchOne of those songs that sounds even better when it’s played really loud.

7. Hip Hop – Pacewon and Mr GreenMy hip hop anthem at the mo’. Includes a perfect sample of NY legend MC Shan in the hook and captures the essence of hip hop. I probably play this too much on the show!

8. Break North – Ultramagnetic MCsGolden era hip hop. Luke Skywalker sample to boot. Can’t fail!

9. Home – M-Phazes/Delta“Good Gracious” is a stellar release by the Gold Coast’s super producer M-Phazes. Features a who’s who of Aussie hip hop. Delta = highly slept on emcee.

10. Average Joes – Staking ClaimsLocal Bendigo out� t of HLG, Simetrik, C-Oh Rex Mundi and Sypha. Tight lyricists who also rep the elements of hip hop culture. www.soundcloud.com/averagejoes

Mike1. The Flaming Lips – A Spoonful Weighs A Ton

Everybody should take a slice from The Flaming Lips and their unique view on the world. Saw them live last year – absolutely amazing.

2. Suicidal Tendencies – InstitutionalisedA track about teenage dislocation and being misunderstood. Combine that with skate punk and angst – great teenage life soundtrack.

3. Beastie Boys – Hey LadiesA classic track from their awesome second album, “Pauls Boutique”. 105 di� erent songs sampled to create one album – genius.

4. Soundgarden - OutshinedChris Cornell was at his best on the “Badmotor� nger” album one of my all time favourites.

5. Al Green – Let’s Stay TogetherGreat track to relax to on a warm summer evening with good company and a refreshing beverage – doesn’t get much better than the good Reverend.

6. Public Enemy - Night Of The Living BaseheadsThe track is a powerful message about drugs in communities, when themes of social justice and empowerment were dominating the hip hop industry, a genuine slice of “golden era” hip hop. The six minute � lm clip is awesome, check it out.

7. The Kinks – Waterloo SunsetOne of their best known tracks written by the great Ray Davies, a haunting track about a solitary � gure watching “the world from my window”. Absolutely brilliant timeless track.

8. Paul Kelly – How To Make GravyArguably Australia’s greatest songwriter telling the story of an imprisoned man writing to his brother at Christmas. A classic Australian song.

9. Rage Against The Machine – Killing In The Name Of“A howling, expletive-driven tirade against the ills of American society.” A powerful band driven by social justice fronted by an amazingly energetic Zack de la Rocha – simply awesome.

10. Massive Attack – Un� nished SympathyA stunning song about heartache from the original trip hop group. Massive strings and harmonies, one of the � rst � lm clips to use one continuous shot, de� nitely worth checking out the � lm clip.

Bob Dylan turns 70 in May and signs are that perhaps he is intending to put less time into his music and more into his writing. Following the enormous success of the � rst volume of his Chronicles in 2004, he has signed with his publisher to write not just the two further Chronicle volumes � rst planned, but also three other books, one a spin-o� from his radio show about popular music, the other two as yet not revealed.

Clunes was one of the towns hard-hit by the recent � oods, but the good news is that will not a� ect the much-anticipated Back to Booktown festival this year. Apart from the humidity – which was hell for paperbacks – the town’s bookstores escaped reasonably well. Festival director Tess Brady hopes to release her full program at the end of this month. Back to Booktown runs May 14 and 15.

The Prime Minister’s Literary awards have been revamped, splitting the prize money in each of the four categories into a � rst prize of $80,000, and then four runners-up prizes of $5000. They have also included e-books in the eligible category, a bold move which makes these prizes among the � rst to recognise the changing world of book publishing.

THIS is a perfect summer read, from best-selling author Monica McInerney.

The Templetons, a distinguished English family, move to Australia to take up residence in a country mansion in Castlemaine that they inherited.

They set local tongues wagging with their eccentric behaviour, and their comical take on Australian history when they throw the manor open for tourists.

A great story with characters you will fall in love with. McInerney grew up in South Australia’s Clare Valley and now lives in Dublin. This novel, her seventh, will be released in the UK next month, and the UK Bookseller magazine has already named it a “top read”.
