The Many Faces of Taika Waititi

The latest movie from Taika Waititi conquered Kiwi cinemas after winning the first of many enthusiastic reviews, at the Sundance Film Festival in the US. Hunt for the Wilderpeople follows a city kid (Julian Dennison, whose Blazed ad is below) on the run in the bush with his grouchy uncle. This Spotlight collection peeks into the career of the versatile Taika Waititi: from acting (Scarfies) to stand-up (Pulp Comedy) to designing album covers, to directing success — on everything from Kiwi blockbuster Boy to Oscar-nominated shorts (Two Cars, One Night) and music videos (40 Years).
