Favourite Movie Friday with Arj Barker

It's no secret I'm quite the Arjy Bargy fan and I was lucky enough to interview the comedian a few weeks ago ahead of his Gold Coast show at the Arts Centre on Tuesday, March 22. He chatted to me via phone while a friend dropped him at his hotel in Sydney and yes, of course I asked him about his favourite movies:

"Gentleman Broncos really cracks me up. I've seen it, like, three times over the holiday season. Jemaine (Clement) is also in that, the director Jared (Hess) is great and there are just some really good unknown actors. That movie fucking kills me. Apocalypse Now, which was amazing. I watched a redux version recently, like a re-release. Easy Rider is just such a beautifully film shot in a beautiful . . .what do they call it? Technicolour. It's just beautiful and has interesting footage and is a pretty intense movie. Those are just three that I really like. And I saw Scott Pilgrim which was great and really unexpected. That's the best way to see it (with no expectations), my friend told me to see it."

He mentions Gentleman Broncos AND Scott Pilgrim Vs The World in the same sentence. How can you NOT love this guy? Stayed tuned for my upcoming post where Arj talks about the possibility of a Flight Of The Conchords movie.
