Drive on 89.3 k.p.c. Scene at 7 o 6 from the Mon broadcast center at Southern California Public Radio this is the Frank the daily report about art entertainment and culture. Hello and welcome to this special membership drive edition of the frame I'm Libby tanks been filling in for John Horne Today we're talking about a new t.v. Series that looks at the world's oldest profession from the perspective of the women who lived it in 18th century London harlots launched this week on Hulu it's a British production that's co-created by more. She's a playwright and screenwriter whose movie credits include the 2001 adaptation of Jane Eyre bustle like in the show to Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette in style others have made comparisons to the sharply modern feminist commentary of Orange Is The New Black right from the start harlots makes the statement in the opening shot of the 1st episode these words flash on the screen $763.00 London is booming one out of 5 women makes a living selling sex when I reached before any at the b.b.c. In London this week that's where we began I mean we found that an astonishing statistic when we when we discovered it we knew that London in the set in the 17th sixty's was on a date for much longer than that was the sex capital of the world but we didn't know quite how prevalent it was but one in 5 women sending sex or in associate trades for example condom make has the people who cleaned Brussels cooked in Brussels you know perhaps what a retire it courses on a whole would do would be to cook meals for the working Goethe So in these associated traits really this was a huge part of womankind state in London in the 760 s. I wonder how you went about pitching this show and did some of your research factor into that pitch Well I mean we pitched it several times the 1st time. We pitched it was to Alice and I were in our producer monumental who straightaway got it and just said yes I want to do this week a few Harris's list of common garden ideas which is this amazing kind of Yelp gawin if you like to to London's prostitutes yes and I'm going to sleep writing in the 1st episode it's like this it's his guide to the quality and the experience of visiting various brothels and various prostitutes that is an actual document I mean our little reviews we kind of wrote to fit the actresses we cast but it's very much in the style often in the language of the original Horace's list our strap against it scuttle any by my stuff. Was stopped in la. Catechism in charge of our shop. For a mate of the hour so we sort of gave this to us and I went in and told her our idea she got it straight away now there were all the channels that we pitched it to who found it very hard to grasp and what they found hard to grasp was the turn of the series which is somewhere between high drama and comedy and I think what they found particularly hard to understand was that women in such a dreadful situation could have humor and wit and to us that was absolutely essential Yeah and I'm glad you brought that tone up there is absolutely a version of this story that would be much more bleak I mean the 18th century London it was an easy place for women and there are a lot of our real sad stories to tell you're able to weave that in amongst this lightness and humor and keeping the women spirits I mean we think it's about women who are dancing on the edge of a new base the life of a cortizone and the life of a street whore that short so these girls have to make the most of their brief. Years of beauty. And some of them do very well out of it and others full right off the wheel of fortune into the into the gutter and the abbess and an early grave so yes it can be very very bleak but but they are dancing on the edge of a new base and right from the word go we thought we would show them dancing rather than just paper into the abyss. And I think I think the great thing about women when they are and people generally when they are in very extreme and difficult situations is that humor and Camerata re other things that get them through I'm also curious if in the course of your research you say you found this Yelp guide for prostitutes which is fascinating did you find anything that was told from the perspective of the women who actually worked in the sex trade is that as easy to track down there's very little written by women that survives from the era we found one. Autobiography of this fantastic woman who ran a sex shop the kind she was marvelous to raise to rasie affiliates she was called so we found her autobiography and there were a couple of other 1st hand accounts but most of the writing about prostitutes was by men so you kind of have to sort of do a kind of sort of twisting around. On that and imagine yourself into the position of the woman that they were writing about and think What does the world look like from where she stands so it's a kind of leap of the imagination there's there's a lot of marvelous material written by men about women selling sex but hardly any of it by women so we we we did that leap of the imagination and really try to put ourselves in that position and think What would our lives have been like and really although 763 seems a long time. I'm ago there are still cities in the world where sex is the biggest industry for women and where if a woman is not looked after by a man she has similarly narrow options I'm interested behind the scenes because I know that you had all women directors women writers What were those conversations like it was great we interviewed women and men writers and at the end of the day we picked the people who responded best to the piece but we didn't set out to have a female writers dream from the word go but then once we did we were really really glad that we did because. It facilitated a kind of opening up and a shorthand and a sense of humor it was at times quite a raucous place. And it was a definite decision to have female directors we knew right from the word go that they say would really work. Seeing from a female. And we thought that was very important to get female directors on board and we got really used to it really quickly it just didn't seem that unusual or especially you know unique. And it wasn't until one of male actors on the set said to me one day as we were filming he said I have never been on a set like this in all of my career he said you have no idea how extraordinary this is and it wasn't until then that that is sort of a cat to me that it was unusual. In the 2nd half of the show Moira says the sex and her new show harlots is like the violence in The Sopranos. The frame is produced by Southern California Public Radio more after this.

Creator of the new Hulu show harlots which is set in the sex trade of $763.00 London for a show about prostitution the action in the bedroom mostly takes a back seat to the personal and professional drama between 2 rival brothel owners Samantha Morton stars as the scrappy Madam Margaret Wells whose house of ill repute squares off against a wealthier posher rival run by Lydia quickly played by Lesley Manville before the break but Feeney was saying that behind the scenes they were determined to hire women directors here she explains why that was particularly important on harlot's if you look at a lot of sex scenes the cameras pointing down on the woman and when you are a woman you are quite aware that your position in the bed is often looking up at the man. And you see that more rarely on screen and I think that's just we just won to that difference of gaze and I think we got it also I think with the sex it is a job for the goals it's like the violence in The Sopranos which is a job for those gone these it isn't do well to pawn it isn't google refined it isn't really anything it's what they do you know someone doesn't pay up and they get violently beaten and then the guys you know may have a drink and moan about their wives Similarly in this case the sex is a joke on the mundanity of it was really really important the show is about gender the show's about sex but of course it's also about money and power and I wanted to play a clip from the 1st episode and it's Samantha Morton who plays the mother and $1.00 of the 2 rival brothel owners depicted in the show she tries to convince her eldest daughter to sign a contract the eldest daughter is already rather successful prostitute at this point and Samantha Morton character wants her daughter to sign this contract to be sort of like a kept woman by this higher class gentleman a lord and I identifying that correctly the situation Yes that's right that's right if a woman signed a contract a guy would basically look off to her and it was quite a good deal for a woman but it meant she was then tie you to that gaudy Ok let's listen to the clip and then we'll come back and talk about it I'm sorry. Are you running. Around. I want to. Say oh yeah. You're right. This was a wild in which women had absolutely no economic power a woman who was moderate was her husband's property a daughter was her father's property under Gail who was who had no man to look after her was incredibly vulnerable. You couldn't have bank account. If you were divorced you you were a pariah. The only woman really lucky enough to have any power and able to keep her decency was a widow if she had money if she was left money by her husband and she didn't remarry and she had a male she had a little bit of power but the only other kind of woman who was able to look after her own money was a prostitute a governess would have earned between $15.30 pounds a year housemate would have and 2 pounds a year and a prostitute could upwards of 200 pounds a year so you can really say that this was the only choice for a woman to keep her dependents in any kind of. It was just to put a roof over their heads and food in their mouths in an independent fashion for me this is absolutely a show about economics. And women have fought for a long time and really really hard for economic freedom and on a show like this I think I think looking back on how women used to live it just makes me think every day every day just be grateful for the economic freedom that we have and to think we must hold on to it with all our money. Because when you don't have it those are your options I'm a huge fan of the costume period drama but most of depictions of this era they include women that use their sexuality as sort of a subtle weapon it's still being used for power for money for economic betterment but in harlots your protagonist are really out in the open about it they're able to use sex really as this blunt instrument. Just felt like to me like the flipside of a Jane Austen you know period drama Yes I think it did use that to show this different side of the female experience than is usually addressed in the period drama yeah yeah I think so I mean you know when a woman has no other power no political power no economic power no power within her relationship the only power she's got is sexual power and these girls do use it. Unfair play to the you know. And yes I think I think this is the flip side of of of the Jane Austen novel. Is that there's a high class brothel run by a woman called Lydia quickly in the drama and there's a character one of one of her girls who is called Ann Pettifor and our ideas and Pettifer was that she's Lydia Bennett you know one of the daughters from yeah and Prejudice absolutely my favorite Yes rescued by Mr Darcy she runs off she later Mr Grant Mr Wickham Mr weaken doesn't marry her until he is painted heftily by Mr Darcy now what would have happened to Lydia Bennett without a shadow of a doubt if Mr Darcy hadn't rescued her is that she would have ended up in a house like Mrs quickly and and so all drama is about the Lydia Bennet's of this world who don't get rescued by men and the girls who have even fewer economic choices than than Lydia Bennet more of a funny thank you very much.

Nick Roman in a rare verdict against a law enforcement yesterday a jury in San Bernardino found a deputy guilty of assault now former San Bernardino County sheriff's deputy Charles Foster was involved in the beating of a man who had a Vedic deputies by stealing a horse in the high desert a couple years ago maybe you saw the end of that chase on t.v. It was captured by a tele copter 2 deputies captured Francis Pusat after he fell off that horse they began hitting him and after Pusat was handcuffed to foster struck him John Nelson covered the trial in the closing arguments with the San Bernardino Sun newspaper we spoke with him today and asked him for the shorthand version of how a chase on horseback turned into a criminal trial night 2015 there's a team of sheriff's deputies serving a search warrant up in the high desert. And Francis Pusat pulled up to this residence and saw the cops there and took off in the car so the police started chasing him fast beginning this nearly 3 hour pursuit on city streets in speeds up to 90 miles an hour and then he crashed a car and fled on foot in the process had made his way into these this Hot Springs area and stole a horse leaving the deputies on a chase into the hilly rugged terrain of the desert when it came to an end this deputy's Mike Phelps and Nick Downey 2 with a 1st to have contact with him and keep in mind the whole time there's n.b.c. Helicopter hovering 8000 feet in the air filming the whole thing and it had been following the pursuit for a while and that the Phelps should stay or dart at him and that takes him down to the ground 2000 and that's when you see them start punching and kicking him and then about a minute or 2 later bunch of other deputies come in and so you have the 2 deputies Phelps and Downey who then end up on trial along with a 3rd deputy Foster Charles Foster but when the verdict comes down Phelps and Downey are well the jury deadlocks on their verdict but they find foster guilty what did he do differently from the other 2 Foster was one of the approximately 10 deputies that came to the aid of Phelps and Downey and it was after 2 sock was handcuffed and hauled that you see in the video Foster kicking you in one swift kick to Kusaka and it was because to sock it already been handcuffed and hobbled that it was unnecessary for that kick and that's why he was convicted and found guilty and I just want to make sure that we get our definitions right when you talk about hobbled what you're talking about is that blue socks feet were tied together and couldn't move yeah it's a device that kind of loops around looks like a rope with the with the lube on the end and. It's used to bind or be together at angles we're talking with John Nelson of The San Bernardino Sun and Joad those other deputies they weren't acquitted the jury deadlocked they face another trial it hasn't been announced officially whether the district attorney's office will retry them but the judge to schedule a pretrial hearing in a tentative trial date of May 8th Tell me about the comment that was made by the prosecuting attorney supervising Deputy District Attorney Robert Block who had mentioned during the trial about a culture of violence in the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department that has really straight up a problem so on Tuesday in his rebuttal closing made comments telling the jury that there was a culture of violence that Affairs Department that was perpetuated by a code of silence and so the sheriff's employees Benefit Association there the union that represents sheriff's deputies they should ments essentially demanding that work apologize for their statements and he that he made this sweeping allegations. This culture of violence that prompted an apology from Bork and in a statement from the district attorney himself Mike Ramos that he tweeted out what did Ramos have to say well Ramos essential a said that his views do not reflect those of or in there he has most respect for some of your character of the permanent activities and that they're the best in the nation we have a sentencing hearing for former deputy Foster when does that come up again Foster's sense you know scheduled for April 28th and by the way let's turn our attention back to Francis Poussaint the man who was who stole that horse and was eventually taken off the horse and was arrested where is he. Today he's got several criminal cases pending against him not just connected to this case so he reached a settlement with the county but that didn't end his legal troubles by any means obviously not John Nelson is the reporter for The San Bernardino Sun newspaper thanks so much thank you one more note former San Bernardino County sheriff's deputy Charles Foster faces up to 3 years in jail when he's sentenced in April he is appealing his guilty verdict Welcome to the film week Marcie I'm learning that's what critics Peter Rainer Amy Nicholson and Charles Solomon 1st up ghost in the shell starring Scarlett Johanson directed by Rupert Sanders Charles well she's original Ghost in the shell is an important visionary landmark film and animation history I think the live action is much less interesting lacks the vision lacks the content and just feels like another Hollywood explosion movie yet in the animation here is so dense and so complicated I admire the pixels and effort that went into it but it feels like there is no soul I guess ghosts in the style of the snow in the depiction of what seems to be a mash up of dystopic. Tokyo and Hong Kong is impressive but the movie itself beyond that I think is is just sort of a wasted. Missed opportunity ghost in the shell rated p.g. 13 and wide release the animated film The Boss baby directed by Tom a graph Amy listen if you are going to watch a movie about a baby who wears a suit and Zacarias and mixes up his milk in a martini shaker this is that movie I feel like as dumb as the present sounds every 15 seconds they put in some visual joke some great line this is as good as this movie could possibly be so give it credit for that I think it has its moments some sharp funny stuff but could be a lot more subversive Alec Baldwin as the voice of the baby is doing his Trump impression again. They liked it better than I did I particularly found the sort of meaningful feeling for moments just too wet to. Plough the boss baby is rated p.g. In wide release The Zookeeper's Wife stars Jessica chest pain and Daniel Bruel Nikki kero is the director Peter powerful subject conventionally may just be chest pain tries her best but I think the movie overall should be much stronger than it is given the strong background material if you both also action and very of the moment because it's about what do you do when the world is going from normal to absolutely insane and what lines even and on your own behavior I like the Jessica jesting character that how she navigated being a woman in this well that's the film really has that a strong viewpoint on husband and wife as zookeepers at the Warsaw Zoo trying to save Jews from the Warsaw ghetto at the same time they run the zoo the movie is rated p.g. 13 Angela Workman wrote the screenplay and it's in selected theaters and finally the documentary on jazz trumpeter Lee Morgan I called him Morgan Peter this is a marvelous documentary about a jazz prodigy Lee Morgan and equally about his common law wife Helen who shot him to death in 1982 and he was 33 years old it's a terrific portrait not only of that Jazeera but of these people and what they went through I called him Morgan is unrated Kasper Collin is the director and it's at a Monica Film Center in Santa Monica play out in Pasadena for our film we critics I'm Laura mantel if you have a wonderful weekend see a good film this weekend and join us every Friday at 11 for the full hour of film week on k p c c.
