11-04 18:30

11-04 18:31

Rush:

Happy Melbourne Cup Night to you!

You are MORE than welcome, BD!

11-04 18:33

Rush:

We have FOUR extras tonight and they run a total of a little less than 15 minutes.

11-04 18:34

Matt:

Should be fun and something to get us excited for the MC!

11-04 18:34

Rush:

They are the same ones we shared last year, but, as not too many were here early to see them, I thought they will still be “fresh”!

Yes, Matt!

11-04 18:35

Rush:

I think that this will be our 24th time.

We missed one…in 2009.

11-04 18:36

Matt:

I forget how many I’ve made…..MANY

11-04 18:36

Rush:

Oh, YES!

11-04 18:37

Rush:

Looks like two more are about to join us…

11-04 18:37

Matt:

In the “que”

11-04 18:37

Rush:

yes.

11-04 18:38

Rush:

I think that we can begin our extras in about five minutes…

11-04 18:39

Matt:

Sounds good

11-04 18:39

Barbie Dahl:

Kewl.

11-04 18:40

Rush:

11-04 18:42

Rush:

The first one is about the famous, and tragic, racehorse, Phar Lap, who was almost certainly an influence on the storyline of tonight’s movie

11-04 18:44

Rush:

It looks as if our extras viewership will be meager tonight as was the case before!

11-04 18:45

Rush:

BUT, these shed a little light on the factual things that relate to “Charlie Chan at the Race Track.”

11-04 18:45

Matt:

That’s Ok, usually a good turn out for this film though

11-04 18:45

Rush:

Yes.

11-04 18:45

Barbie Dahl:

🀞🏻🀞🏻

11-04 18:46

Rush:

And, of course, about an hour after our Chat ends, the actual Melbourne Cup will run in Australia, and the person holding the “Winning Ticket” tonight will receive this year’s coin!

11-04 18:46

Matt:

Rush:

From a Keye Luke interview in 1985: “…I remember when we were making Charlie Chan at the Race Track. He had to lean on the rail and watch these horses go by, see? So, he’d see them coming in, so he’d follow like this (Turning his head), you see? Well, of course, he was a little unsteady, so he’d slide along that thing – like that. (Acting unsteady) So finally, Lucky Humberstone the director says, β€œWell, I know how to fix it. Come on down here everybody!” you know? So the crowd that was in the stands, you know, got – came down – and he said, β€œNow, crowd around him and prop him up.” (Chuckling)

Speaking on Oland who was a bit tipsy when that scene was shot…

11-04 20:01

Nothere:

Electric beams high speed cameras. Did Flash Gordon set this up?

11-04 20:01

Rich in Maine:

wow Rush!

11-04 20:01

Barbie Dahl:

Was it due to medication, Rush?

11-04 20:02

Rush:

“See? Crowd around and prop up. So, all right, Poppa was pinched in there, you see? So, now, the thing to do was to get him to look at the horse when it was coming, and he wouldn’t turn, sort of like that (Looking to his left). So he said, β€œSo, what shall I do now?” So he says, β€œOh, I know what!” So got a starter’s pistol, and he went down there a little ways, you see (Chuckling), and at a [zoom point], with the horses, he’d fire this – “

11-04 20:02

Matt:

Helped with acent

11-04 20:02

Rush:

“and Pop would go (Looking to his left, laughing) and he’d follow the horses by! God, it was funny! Oh, we just died! Everybody just died!” (Laughing)

11-04 20:03
