The actor joined the podcast to talk about his career and life, but eventually the conversation turned to Oscar-nominated film, which was directed in New Zealand by Jane Champion. Elliott responded to Maron’s question about the film. “You want to talk about that piece of s—?”
Maron asked. “You didn’t like that one?” Elliott replied, “F— no. Why? I’ll tell you why I didn’t like it anyway. I looked at when I was down there in Texas doing 1883 and what really brought it home to me the other day when I said, ‘Do you want to f—ing talk about it?’ There was a f—ing full-page ad out in the LA Times and there was a review, not a review, but a clip, and it talked about the ‘evisceration of the American myth.’ And I thought, ‘What the f—? What the f—?’ This is the guy that’s done westerns forever. The evisceration of the American west?”
Elliott then compared the characters with Chippendale’s dancers. “They made it look like – what are all those dancers that those guys in New York who wear bowties and not much else. Remember them from back in the day?”You can access the whole conversation by clicking the link to the top. WTF podcast.
