It’s
time for See Hear podcast episode 38.
What
do you get when you have a narcissist keeping everyone in his
immediate circle in a powerless state because no one feels they can
tell the emperor he’s behaving woefully?
Wrong
answer… (well….right answer but not in this context). You have
the 1972 cinema debut from Daryl Duke called Payday. Rip Torn plays
Maury Dann, a regionally popular touring country singer. He’s never
hit the Johnny Cash level of popularity, but he’s a king in his own
mind and will throw those closest to him under the bus if it
satisfies his requirements. The film covers a couple of days in the
life….and it ain’t pretty.
Bernie,
Tim and Maurice discuss this hidden seventies gem. The characters in
this film are all three dimensional. Rip Torn brings some serious
acting chops as he lays out the charisma and the nastiness in Maury
Dann. The film is a downbeat, gritty look at life on the road for
this manipulative man-child who is not out for any sort of
redemption.
