  • THE SHOWRUNNER Frankie Thomas
    ATLENGTHMAG.COM 1 THE SHOWRUNNER Frankie Thomas Roger hates open casting calls, but the network is being a pain in the ass about casting “real kids” in the Life According to Liberty pilot. “Viewers should look at these kids and see themselves,” says the first in an increas- ingly inane series of memos. “Avoid overly polished child-star types.” They use the words “fresh,” “natural,” “organic,” and “raw” so often, you’d think they really just want to open a restaurant in Silverlake. Roger hates a lot of things—rush hour traffic, the 405 any time of day, people who mispronounce “Hermès,” the smoking ban in restaurants, most of America east of the Harbor Freeway—but he especially resents wast- ing a workday on an open call, because, for the most part, he doesn’t hate his job. He does it damn well, too: if you have kids, they’ve probably clocked half their lives watching his shows. Superpants? That was him. Second String, Friendship Heights, Passing for Paranormal—all Roger Knox productions. It’s thanks to your kids that Roger owns a penthouse in the Hills, drives a black Maserati, wears a different suit every day (Armani, Zegna, Tom Ford, YSL, maybe breaking out the Hugo Boss when he doesn’t mind looking like a slob), and gets his shoes shined once a week even though he doesn’t walk enough to scuff them. He’s been here long enough that he no longer feels like he’s evading when people ask him where he’s from and he answers, “Hollywood.” At the casting call, though, Roger is forced to interact with people who aren’t from Hollywood, people who even smell like the real world—babies, church basements, cafeterias, grocery-store shampoos.

  • All Blacks Balance World Cup Ledger the RWC Final Through the Eyes Of
    All Blacks Balance World Cup Ledger The RWC final through the eyes of a Kiwi in Buenos Aires When the 1987 Rugby World Cup kicked off I was a recent graduate from Victoria University just starting my professional career as a management accountant with the Public Trust Office. I was at Athletic Park to watch the All Blacks convincing win over the Pumas and turned 22 the day the All Blacks beat Scotland in the quarter final. When David Kirk lifted the Webb Ellis Cup at Eden Park I, along with many other Kiwis, expected that our world domination would continue for ever. Twenty Four years later I’m a middle aged man whose hair is going grey. I’m living in Argentina and working as finance and admin manager for New York University’s Buenos Aires study away site. The All Blacks World Cup ledger stands unbalanced with just a single entry in the credit column dating back to 1987. It’s a 5.00am kickoff in Buenos Aires for the RWC final and the sun won’t be appearing for a while as with family and friends we drive down to NZ Ambassador Darryl Dunn’s apartment building in the recycled port district of Puerto Madero. It’s cool and windy as we head inside where an early breakfast of sandwiches, pastries, juice, tea and coffee awaits us. Unlike 24 years ago when I tucked into a plate of Chinese takeaways this time I’m too tense to eat so I chat to the other guests and am then one of the first to take a seat in the building’s 40 seat mini cinema.

Image: Riv via Flickr Creative Commons Sitting in a bar off Queen’s Street in Auckland, I couldn’t feel more English. While my two Welsh companions were getting stopped for photos and hugs, I was getting heckled and jeered. Yet it was during the national anthems of New Zealand and Tonga that I showed how British I am. I stood and showed respect as the anthems were sung. Yet the Kiwis in the bar didn’t seem to pay much attention. Some watched, some sang along, most continued to natter away. And while I was trying to comprehend this attitude that had offended me, the teams were getting ready for the Haka and the Sipi Tau. This is where I saw the error in my judgement. This is where the New Zealanders suddenly stood to attention. The Haka is more than a war cry, it is an embedded part of the All Black culture that Kiwis are obsessed with. After the Tongan Sipi Tau there was applause for what one Maori described as his brothers.
