As we near the end of Mike White March, we come upon the curious case of Mad Dog Morgan, a film that benefits from some knowledge of the wild behind-the-scenes machinations surrounding its star, the powerhouse that was Dennis Hopper. Directed by Philippe Mora, the film follows the infamous bushranger and all-around ne'er-do-well Dan "Mad Dog" Morgan as he causes trouble for the Australian authorities in the mid-1800s. Hopper's offscreen antics translate into a true method performance as the unhinged Morgan, paired with a cinema verite style reminiscent of Alejandro Jodorowsky. We talk Hopper's performance, the translation from page to screen, and more familiar faces from Aussie cinema.
The Projection Booth's Mike White joins Chris Stachiw, the Doctor of Podcasting, to talk Mad Dog Morgan, Dennis Hopper, Ozploitation, and so much more.
