01:42you because on the brat tour she's been um getting like they cut to the celebrity
01:46do the apple dance don't they did you think you could get to do that maybe I was in no
01:49state to
01:50do apple dance have you heard the album yet for Wuthering Heights yeah yeah yeah
01:56it was unbelievable where did you get to hear that well well I've heard all the
01:59songs that are in the movie oh yeah are there extra songs I was trying to make
02:03notes and I'm pretty sure because there's like eight songs they weren't like eight
02:05songs in the movie it's probably more than that on the album so then there'll be
02:09ones that no specials yeah did you did that was there like a listening party for it or
02:13did you just send your link or what no because it was coming in in in in chunks and in
02:20sections
02:20and it was is yeah it was is in the mayhem of the edit and um blending it with anthony's
02:26score as well yeah of course yeah and so that that's like a yeah and I mean and everyone
02:31did such an amazing job but no they never you didn't get delivered like one yeah present
02:37it wasn't like all at one time you'd turn up at your doorstep be like there you go I've done
02:41this for you um what I find interesting is I just found out on this press tour she started
02:45developing it from the screenplay yeah before we even started shooting and I think that's so
02:49interesting that you have one artist's images like emeralds from 14 years old to now reading
02:55this book and then she puts those images into words and then another artist comes in and starts
03:00creating a sound based off of those words it's like a completely original yeah piece of work
03:06you know it's so so cool with no visual reference yeah and it's like obviously so cool for you guys
03:11she's done this for one film and it's your film we were just hoping for one song yeah she was
03:16like
03:16I'll do an album we're all like okay great thank you Jacob I don't know whether you remember in our
03:21last interview we were chatting uh about Oscar Isaac's punk star punk bands yes and you were loving
03:29than that I was huge on that he had all the flies he had many bands really yeah yeah he's
03:33a real
03:33does he sing or play all of it all of it but you did say something that the internet had
03:38a bit of a
03:39moment about which is that you'd actually seen these photos because you reblogged them on your film
03:43enthusiast tumblr account correct now as an elected representative of the internet correct I'm going
03:50to ask you were you joking or does that thing actually exist no I mean I've never deleted it but
03:57but
03:57but I did have I had a tumblr account that was dedicated to um thrashing the the transit of
04:05Melbourne so it's just graffiti and it was graffiti and cinema were my two sort of um passions so yeah
04:14and it was it was one of those um because I think it must it must have been he must
04:19there must have been
04:20an x-men film at that time and so he was trending on tumblr of like look at this maybe
04:25something like
04:26that and it was like look at oscar eyes like when he was this edge because I had all pictures
04:30of
04:30young actors before they had you know started making films on there so yeah it's a real thing
04:35who else was on that father sadly no no punk band for me would have loved that no but there
04:41actually
04:41probably was it's probably home and away photos that was like neighbors I was on neighbors that was my
04:45little neighbors sorry big fan you can tell no no I loved her on home and away
04:54they're all the same because neither of them cast me
04:56I auditioned for both and didn't get did you audition for them yeah yeah I didn't know that
05:01like two three times so no way it's nothing to do with you and everything to do with the soap
05:06opera
05:06system you turned up to ramsey street and graffiti to sort of angry slogans they must be
05:12they must be like is ramsey street is at home and away neighbors neighbors neighbors yeah

05:22we'll cut that out otherwise you might get sort of sort of your citizenship taken away from Australia
05:27did you think it would stop me
05:47final question we always ask this I don't think we've got to ask any of you in previous
05:52interviews but it is what is an album that you always go back to oh god um
