society this would be improved if we did

it as a draft because fantasy football's

well was a tough one because they're
[TS]
◼
►
only 71 movies have been made so now
[TS]
◼
►
we've actually picked more than like a
[TS]
◼
►
little bit less than half of them so but
[TS]
◼
►
I was surprised at 11 my really favorite
[TS]
◼
►
had not been picked yet it is what i
[TS]
◼
►
consider to be the best movie about a
[TS]
◼
►
tech geek about a nerd ever made it was
[TS]
◼
►
directed by francis ford coppola
[TS]
◼
►
released in 1974 it's called the
[TS]
◼
►
conversation and this is the student now
[TS]
◼
►
i'm not i'm not saying that the
[TS]
◼
►
stereotype of nerds who are really
[TS]
◼
►
really obsessed with technical
[TS]
◼
►
proficiency but not quite so comfortable
[TS]
◼
►
socializing i'm not saying that's a
[TS]
◼
►
pervasive thing but we all know enough
[TS]
◼
►
people out there that we could probably
[TS]
◼
►
come up with one or two examples of this
[TS]
◼
►
sort of person and gene hackman for god
[TS]
◼
►
sakes gene hackman he is always good
[TS]
◼
►
plays harry call who is an audio
[TS]
◼
►
engineer who is a used to work for
[TS]
◼
►
larger agency now is a private
[TS]
◼
►
contractor and at the opening of this
[TS]
◼
►
movie wonderful shot shot right in the
[TS]
◼
►
middle of San Francisco we see him at
[TS]
◼
►
his job where he is just an amazing
[TS]
◼
►
engineer he has been hired to try to
[TS]
◼
►
record a conversation between two people
[TS]
◼
►
who are aware that people are going to
[TS]
◼
►
be trying to record the conversation and
[TS]
◼
►
are trying to create a situation which
[TS]
◼
►
you cannot possibly get a recording of
[TS]
◼
►
what was going on and so this did this
[TS]
◼
►
incredibly dramatic choreography of
[TS]
◼
►
hidden microphones and people on the
[TS]
◼
►
around and radio microphones he manages
[TS]
◼
►
to record this conversation but before
[TS]
◼
►
he's in his little lab is trying to
[TS]
◼
►
clean it up and figure out what people
[TS]
◼
►
are actually saying because you have to
[TS]
◼
►
do all that sort of stuff and in the
[TS]
◼
►
meantime he starts to kind of wonder why
[TS]
◼
►
then why was I hired to record this
[TS]
◼
►
conversation i bet if I keep trying to
[TS]
◼
►
figure out if i try to get more of this
[TS]
◼
►
conversation in the clear and I'll
[TS]
◼
►
understand exactly what's going on
[TS]
◼
►
meanwhile he's you get to see 1974 tech
[TS]
◼
►
world where it's several lots of streets
[TS]
◼
►
of San Francisco you get to see it
[TS]
◼
►
electronics trade show you get to see
[TS]
◼
►
this already sort of paranoid guy who
[TS]
◼
►
does not like interacting with people
[TS]
◼
►
finding lots of reasons why he doesn't
[TS]
◼
►
like interacting with people how he just
[TS]
◼
►
doesn't know how to get on with society
[TS]
◼
►
and on top of everything else you've got
[TS]
◼
►
John Cazale and in a supporting role
[TS]
◼
►
Cindy Williams you have Harrison Ford in
[TS]
◼
►
a supporting role for heaven's sake so
[TS]
◼
►
he's this is this was just right before
[TS]
◼
►
Star Wars what about turning this into a
[TS]
◼
►
15-minute screen on this one film it's a
[TS]
◼
►
really ritz it's not he is not the case
[TS]
◼
►
of this one this man being caught in the
[TS]
◼
►
net of intrigue and it turns into a
[TS]
◼
►
deadly foot chase of cat-and-mouse stuff
[TS]
◼
►
it really is what do you do when you
[TS]
◼
►
just have no interest or ability to
[TS]
◼
►
associate with the rest of humanity and
[TS]
◼
►
now you're sort of forced into that sort
[TS]
◼
►
of role where you're paranoid by Nature
[TS]
◼
►
normally that's all in your head but now
[TS]
◼
►
you're starting to suspect you have
[TS]
◼
►
reasons to be paranoid and also he has a
[TS]
◼
►
really cool lab he owns an entire
[TS]
◼
►
warehouse but his entire workshop is a
[TS]
◼
►
tiny wire cage off area with racks and
[TS]
◼
►
racks of Awesome analog equipment so a
[TS]
◼
►
top-to-bottom it's just such a fun show
[TS]
◼
►
and also it really is Gene Hackman doing
[TS]
◼
►
when those perfect gene hackman sort of
[TS]
◼
►
roles we get to be wrinkled and nervous
[TS]
◼
►
and frumpy and yet absolutely in command
[TS]
◼
►
of what he imagines to be the world he
[TS]
◼
►
listened and francis ford coppola
[TS]
◼
►
returns to our film festival after his
[TS]
◼
►
little of monster movies last time so
[TS]
◼
►
yes this was less less been attributable
[TS]
◼
►
doesn't this this is this is something I
[TS]
◼
►
i think we could do an entire I could do
[TS]
◼
►
an entire film festival i have a real
[TS]
◼
►
love the one sent to every director
[TS]
◼
►
every like no mega mega lo part of the
[TS]
◼
►
director like a Coppola they have that
[TS]
◼
►
screenplay that they wrote before they
[TS]
◼
►
hit it big and I couldn't get any
[TS]
◼
►
interest in and as soon as he becomes
[TS]
◼
►
the director of The Godfather the most
[TS]
◼
►
successful movie franchise the seventies
[TS]
◼
►
ever seen and now he has his screw you
[TS]
◼
►
contract saying oh yeah well now i'm
[TS]
◼
►
going here I'm going to make you make
[TS]
◼
►
this movie that you never said we could
[TS]
◼
►
ever get made and so he takes the script
[TS]
◼
►
of his back pocket the conversation
[TS]
◼
►
which he died i do think it's it's
[TS]
◼
►
credibly his best movie i don't think i
[TS]
◼
►
don't think that Apocalypse Now or The
[TS]
◼
►
Godfather movies are better than this is
[TS]
◼
►
just wonderful wonderful flick
[TS]
◼
►
that's good that movie is one of five
[TS]
◼
►
movies that John Cazale appears in and
[TS]
◼
►
they all got nominated for best picture
[TS]
◼
►
ya know it's exactly he he died at age
[TS]
◼
►
40 i think was it and you'd got he just
[TS]
◼
►
would have been one of those guys that
[TS]
◼
►
he was on the gene hackman track you
[TS]
◼
►
know where you figure that he would have
[TS]
◼
►
been 78 years old and coming up with a
[TS]
◼
►
great be a role in a great movie every
[TS]
◼
►
two years for the rest of his life
[TS]
◼
►
alright uh David Laura you're up well
[TS]
◼
►
you know i was looking at my DVD shelves
[TS]
◼
►
and thinking you know all these movies i
[TS]
◼
►
love and there's one that you know it's
[TS]
◼
►
maybe not the greatest film in the world
[TS]
◼
►
but it would be the first 1i would take
[TS]
◼
►
to a desert island with a DVD player and
[TS]
◼
►
that's Hudson now how philip Michaels
[TS]
◼
►
just shot his computer yeah that's
[TS]
◼
►
Wonderboys Michael Douglas tobey maguire
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
nineteen seventies kind of movie
[TS]
◼
►
actually and and he said that he didn't
[TS]
◼
►
intentionally made a 70 style move
[TS]
◼
►
based on a novel by michael chabon
[TS]
◼
►
excellent novel i prefer the movie it's
[TS]
◼
►
just fun it's intelligent and it you
[TS]
◼
►
know if it really gets inside writing
[TS]
◼
►
and the weird thing is no matter how
[TS]
◼
►
many times I see it no matter what time
[TS]
◼
►
of day it is as soon as it's done
[TS]
◼
►
I just want to get up and write for
[TS]
◼
►
hours and hours because suddenly it's
[TS]
◼
►
like oh yeah that's why I do this and
[TS]
◼
►
it's a lot of fun I mean it's kind of a
[TS]
◼
►
road trip where these three guys wind up
[TS]
◼
►
together with Michael Douglas's this
[TS]
◼
►
writer who has he wrote a brilliant
[TS]
◼
►
novel brilliant first novel and
[TS]
◼
►
everybody's been waiting for his
[TS]
◼
►
follow-up for years and years and
[TS]
◼
►
everyone figures he's had writer's block
[TS]
◼
►
all this time and it's no no I'm on page
[TS]
◼
►
twenty-two hundred and i'm still going
[TS]
◼
►
and so he pee travels through the movie
[TS]
◼
►
clutching this gigantic manuscript by
[TS]
◼
►
the end of it and Tobey Maguire's the
[TS]
◼
►
who is that next generation of of wonder
[TS]
◼
►
boy he's he's a fantastic writer and
[TS]
◼
►
Robert Downey jr. is the agent who
[TS]
◼
►
handles Michael Douglas's writing and is
[TS]
◼
►
kind of looking at this guy and going
[TS]
◼
►
hey I kind of like him and it's just
[TS]
◼
►
it's wonderful how all these different
[TS]
◼
►
stories intertwine and and just fully
[TS]
◼
►
dimensional characters coming even even
[TS]
◼
►
the smallest bit character is just a
[TS]
◼
►
fully dimensional person it's it's just
[TS]
◼
►
a wonderful movie and went but probably
[TS]
◼
►
my favorite thing about it when he was
[TS]
◼
►
trying to put together the music he was
[TS]
◼
►
picking very you know early to mid
[TS]
◼
►
seventies music and he pro2 Bob Dylan
[TS]
◼
►
and he said I would really like to use
[TS]
◼
►
some of your songs and the one said
[TS]
◼
►
we'll send me the film i'll take a look
[TS]
◼
►
hey I was not allowed
[TS]
◼
►
yeah that's better i'm sorry but my
[TS]
◼
►
headphones cut out what did he say again
[TS]
◼
►
didn't lay and I said there where there
[TS]
◼
►
was a transformed so have others yes yes
[TS]
◼
►
go but he does often refer to himself by
[TS]
◼
►
name to explain is 20 yes so you know he
[TS]
◼
►
sends off the movie and doesn't hear
[TS]
◼
►
from dylan and doesn't hear from dylan
[TS]
◼
►
anything odd dammit can't use any of the
[TS]
◼
►
songs and he wakes up one morning goes
[TS]
◼
►
to his mailbox and there is this package
[TS]
◼
►
and there's Bob Dylan in his mailbox in
[TS]
◼
►
it was a package of three brand new
[TS]
◼
►
original songs written just for the
[TS]
◼
►
movie that's how much Dylan identified
[TS]
◼
►
with the characters in the story was
[TS]
◼
►
like how and then don't want an Oscar
[TS]
◼
►
for the for the song right but yes it's
[TS]
◼
►
just a lovely film my favorite but i
[TS]
◼
►
have a favorite line from that movie
[TS]
◼
►
it's the now that is a big trunk it all
[TS]
◼
►
the tufa suitcase a dead dog in a
[TS]
◼
►
garment bag almost perfectly joined
[TS]
◼
►
Michael Douglas character says that's
[TS]
◼
►
just what they used to say in the ads
[TS]
◼
►
all right Wonder Boys you Yusei better
[TS]
◼
►
than the novel fair enough i've actually
[TS]
◼
►
read that novel but I I love Michael
[TS]
◼
►
Chabon so it's but it's it's adapted by
[TS]
◼
►
the same writer who did six of the seven
[TS]
◼
►
harry know seven of the eight Harry
[TS]
◼
►
Potter films and the only harry potter
[TS]
◼
►
film that has a bad script is going he
[TS]
◼
►
didn't do and he streamlines this the
[TS]
◼
►
storyline in the book and just sort of
[TS]
◼
►
cuts out what I mean it I mean it's it
[TS]
◼
►
works in a novel it would never work in
[TS]
◼
►
a film and so he just sort of chops off
[TS]
◼
►
this one whole subplot and keeps it
[TS]
◼
►
going and you go
[TS]
◼
►
yeah right that's how you do it cool we
[TS]
◼
►
move on and it's steve lets his turn
[TS]
◼
►
oh it's me it's you alright i'm a stand
[TS]
◼
►
back male some strategy on You Man huh
[TS]
◼
►
if this is the master of the universe
[TS]
◼
►
movie i'm gonna be really upset if that
[TS]
◼
►
wasn't even originally a Masters of the
[TS]
◼
►
Universe screenplay right i mean right
[TS]
◼
►
on it was the adaptation was I think
[TS]
◼
►
pretty superb but yeah this time out i
[TS]
◼
►
I've decided I'm gonna
[TS]
◼
►
before go the highbrow pics from last
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
look cultured you know like a dawn of

[TS]
◼
►

◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

►
sniping my movies but that's that I do
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
says come with me if you want to live
[TS]
◼
►
and then awesomeness ensues
[TS]
◼
►
oh yeah so yeah like the Terminator it's
[TS]
◼
►
it's action-packed it's a it's very
[TS]
◼
►
scary at times in fact I'd say it
[TS]
◼
►
qualifies as much as a horror movie as
[TS]
◼
►
it does sci-fi it's got not one but two
[TS]
◼
►
pretty convincing face
[TS]
◼
►
endings and drawn out for too long and I
[TS]
◼
►
i opened just spoil that for anybody i
[TS]
◼
►
always get it confused with short
[TS]
◼
►
circuit is it busy and I always get the
[TS]
◼
►
robot from short-circuit confused with
[TS]
◼
►
the robot from Space Camp short-circuit
[TS]
◼
►
robot is more like Wally it's shirt on
[TS]
◼
►
the five is alive
[TS]
◼
►
it's right that it so there's a there's
[TS]
◼
►
that the very clever time-travel
[TS]
◼
►
conundrum of a John Connor sending back
[TS]
◼
►
the man who would eventually become his
[TS]
◼
►
father that I really like right and for
[TS]
◼
►
better or worse it it made Arnold
[TS]
◼
►
Schwarzenegger as career i think for
[TS]
◼
►
some would say for worse but it's the
[TS]
◼
►
hey what about color in the Barbarian he
[TS]
◼
►
was great in Conan but i don't think
[TS]
◼
►
that that was that big and tell it did
[TS]
◼
►
not apparently to an icon
[TS]
◼
►
he had like seven lines of dialogue in
[TS]
◼
►
Conan right it was the star it by 12 and
[TS]
◼
►
terminator so yes he's wrapping up and I
[TS]
◼
►
don't think that really took off until
[TS]
◼
►
until it was out on video or out on
[TS]
◼
►
cable and people started the word of
[TS]
◼
►
mouth started getting around I think
[TS]
◼
►
maybe five people saw it in the theater
[TS]
◼
►
and it's the perfect role for Arnold
[TS]
◼
►
because he barely asked to talk and when
[TS]
◼
►
he does you can kind of rationalize why
[TS]
◼
►
it sounds so stupid so a good good
[TS]
◼
►
yeah i like that i like the look of this
[TS]
◼
►
movie because you after after seeing
[TS]
◼
►
Terminator 2 so many times it's charming
[TS]
◼
►
to go back and see a movie that's
[TS]
◼
►
definitely got a lower budget and it's
[TS]
◼
►
darker everything is a little a little
[TS]
◼
►
more kind of organic is more horror
[TS]
◼
►
movie ish and a lot with that budget to
[TS]
◼
►
Orson Hamilton looks totally different
[TS]
◼
►
and she's bigger yes you got the big
[TS]
◼
►
hair and she's just this kind of cute
[TS]
◼
►
girl running around who gets mixed up in
[TS]
◼
►
time travel adventures with killer
[TS]
◼
►
robots she's not all sinew and tough
[TS]
◼
►
yeah it's a hundred percent more bill
[TS]
◼
►
paxton as as a like a punk in that
[TS]
◼
►
person's right aren't very briefly
[TS]
◼
►
yeah what impressed me the most about
[TS]
◼
►
this movie is that normally if I'm if a
[TS]
◼
►
time travel movie doesn't work for me
[TS]
◼
►
all I'm thinking about is yet but none
[TS]
◼
►
of this matters because they can just
[TS]
◼
►
send another robot back in time before
[TS]
◼
►
the time when this robot Liz like that
[TS]
◼
►
Star Trek movie the first start tricking
[TS]
◼
►
the first thing we'll start trying out
[TS]
◼
►
generations was it yeah it's like okay
[TS]
◼
►
so you defeated the Borg and but that
[TS]
◼
►
doesn't matter because the border still
[TS]
◼
►
able to check that out well that time
[TS]
◼
►
travel thing didn't work but the fact
[TS]
◼
►
that like at no point was i even
[TS]
◼
►
thinking about the Terminator means that
[TS]
◼
►
uh oh good movie
[TS]
◼
►
yeah it is a good movie all right and
[TS]
◼
►
nice try Steve you actually picked a
[TS]
◼
►
good movie i know i'm sorry miss we
[TS]
◼
►
won't happen again I promise
[TS]
◼
►
it is so much some cookie trivia 20 yes
[TS]
◼
►
everybody already knows the Terminator I
[TS]
◼
►
don't have to talk endlessly about it so
[TS]
◼
►
i can tell you that apparently the
[TS]
◼
►
studio suggested oj simpson for the role
[TS]
◼
►
of the terminator
[TS]
◼
►
wow that would have been a very
[TS]
◼
►
different james cameron nixed it because
[TS]
◼
►
he didn't think that she would be
[TS]
◼
►
believable as a killer
[TS]
◼
►
so next the idea and apparently sting
[TS]
◼
►
was considered for the kyle reese role
[TS]
◼
►
and I will kill him I will
[TS]
◼
►
that's right so good it'll take six
[TS]
◼
►
yeah of course a Harley guys and
[TS]
◼
►
eventually sued Cameron getting that
[TS]
◼
►
Cameron script off and outer limits
[TS]
◼
►
episode that he wrote which exposure
[TS]
◼
►
studio settled I guess Cameron was not
[TS]
◼
►
too pleased by it and so now he says
[TS]
◼
►
that Harlan Ellison is a parasite who
[TS]
◼
►
can kiss my ass believe is the exact
[TS]
◼
►
quote interesting from James Cameron
[TS]
◼
►
what you're saying somebody doesn't like
[TS]
◼
►
Harlan Ellison yeah shocking isn't it
[TS]
◼
►
got a limited ellison is not someone who
[TS]
◼
►
sues people without good reason
[TS]
◼
►
yeah yeah he enjoys it and he's a lot of
[TS]
◼
►
people but alright with the opposite i
[TS]
◼
►
love the credit is I want to credit
[TS]
◼
►
enjoying the in the video where it
[TS]
◼
►
basically is acknowledgement to the
[TS]
◼
►

well i'm assuming that i'm going to be
[TS]
◼
►
banished to some distant stage possibly
[TS]
◼
►
one of the last remaining drive-ins or
[TS]
◼
►
monday in the or okay well i'm assuming
[TS]
◼
►
it's a drive-in anyway even if it is on
[TS]
◼
►
monday that's why my first movie is
[TS]
◼
►
killing to kill again and excellent
[TS]
◼
►
South African kungfu epic from 1981 I
[TS]
◼
►
don't even know why I try anymore
[TS]
◼
►
okay this movie is a trial and ya know
[TS]
◼
►
that's that's little to explain all
[TS]
◼
►
right it's one of my favorite movies
[TS]
◼
►
this is absolutely true
[TS]
◼
►
it's sort of the sequel to a movie
[TS]
◼
►
called killer be killed
[TS]
◼
►
so you they had a movie called killer be
[TS]
◼
►
killed and it had a Nazi dwarf in it and
[TS]
◼
►
it was kind of weird and they made
[TS]
◼
►
another movie called killer diligent
[TS]
◼
►
hilton hill same lead actor with a
[TS]
◼
►
slightly different character I think
[TS]
◼
►
he's steve hunt in the first movie and
[TS]
◼
►
Steve chase the second movie today is
[TS]
◼
►
now the plot of this movie is pretty
[TS]
◼
►
standard same as enter the dragon or
[TS]
◼
►
gymkata or any number of other movies
[TS]
◼
►
where the hero has to infiltrate a
[TS]
◼
►
country and enter a karate tournament
[TS]
◼
►
right now that's what separates us from
[TS]
◼
►
Rambo yeah I'm really really excited
[TS]
◼
►
that used enter the dragon and judicata
[TS]
◼
►
in the same sense and there's a lot of
[TS]
◼
►
similarities but first he has together
[TS]
◼
►
his team and his team consists of a guy
[TS]
◼
►
named gorilla who is a huge black guy I
[TS]
◼
►
a guy named Justin silly who knows the
[TS]
◼
►
Wow a guy named hot dog who is kind of
[TS]
◼
►
an out-of-shape guy with a shirt that
[TS]
◼
►
says hotdog the budget was not high
[TS]
◼
►
enough to get an actual hot dog when we
[TS]
◼
►
first meet hot dog he's playing a kind
[TS]
◼
►
of Russian roulette game with a bunch of
[TS]
◼
►
dumb guys in a warehouse where he loads
[TS]
◼
►
a pistol and flings it into the air and
[TS]
◼
►
then Atlanta ball shoots in random
[TS]
◼
►
directions later on a movie there will
[TS]
◼
►
be like three different bar fights were
[TS]
◼
►
hott Dogg will sidle up to an angry guy
[TS]
◼
►
take the guys figure out of his mouth
[TS]
◼
►
dip the lit end into a glass of whiskey
[TS]
◼
►
suck the whiskey off and it back the guy
[TS]
◼
►
and say hot dog and it makes no sense
[TS]
◼
►
and the final member of the team is the
[TS]
◼
►
fly who kicks everybody and is so
[TS]
◼
►
powerful with his feet that is such
[TS]
◼
►
control over the muscles of his feet
[TS]
◼
►
that he can just stand still and slide
[TS]
◼
►
that's a good power but here's the kid
[TS]
◼
►
here's a question for the sliding guy
[TS]
◼
►
did they use stop motion to that effect
[TS]
◼
►
no it looks like because the camera only
[TS]
◼
►
goes up to about his knees
[TS]
◼
►
it looks like i was driving him
[TS]
◼
►
alongside ways and follow-up question is
[TS]
◼
►
he is not he's a guy named Stan Schmidt
[TS]
◼
►
well I'm stumped
[TS]
◼
►
so the movies great makes no sense that
[TS]
◼
►
has paratrooper ninjas and it ends with
[TS]
◼
►
Steve chase having to fight a giant dude
[TS]
◼
►
with a mustache named the optimist his
[TS]
◼
►
moustache is named the optimist he
[TS]
◼
►
fought somebody using a mustache as a
[TS]
◼
►
holy cow that's the greatest martial
[TS]
◼
►
arts movie ever it is a great movie and
[TS]
◼
►
had some of the worst fake beard you
[TS]
◼
►
will ever see kill and kill again
[TS]
◼
►
south africa's finest movie of 1981
[TS]
◼
►
South Africa's only movie in 1981 not
[TS]
◼
►
regret it I got it I got to take that
[TS]
◼
►
one off my list now cross diamonds
[TS]
◼
►
that's why I made with it i'll be
[TS]
◼
►
clearly good that's a value pick in the
[TS]
◼
►
first round I John siracusa it's your
[TS]
◼
►
turn the Godfather Part wanted to not
[TS]
◼
►
I'm beginning to question my
[TS]
◼
►
participation in this I'm also beginning
[TS]
◼
►
to question like when I was making this
[TS]
◼
►
list I couldn't remember what movies we
[TS]
◼
►
picked last time I know you sent us the
[TS]
◼
►
list and I said surely someone has
[TS]
◼
►
picked this movie in fact I think I
[TS]
◼
►
picked this movie so I kept obsessively
[TS]
◼
►
searching for it maybe I made a typo
[TS]
◼
►
maybe you made a typo but I don't think
[TS]
◼
►
it was picked maybe it maybe I've just
[TS]
◼
►
talked about it before but anyway my
[TS]
◼
►
first selection which I swear i've said
[TS]
◼
►
all the same things about before the top
[TS]
◼
►
but you'll tell me if that's the case is
[TS]
◼
►
my favorite steven soderbergh movie did
[TS]
◼
►
anyone know what it is yet
[TS]
◼
►
I talked about before it's out of sight
[TS]
◼
►
it's out of sight because that was gonna
[TS]
◼
►
be my first round pick so you did say
[TS]
◼
►
there was gonna be a second-round we are
[TS]
◼
►
into the quality movie portion yeah this
[TS]
◼
►
is my favorite same server movie and I
[TS]
◼
►
believe the last time i talked about it
[TS]
◼
►
i referred to this movie is peak Clooney
[TS]
◼
►
I think it is p Clooney particular kind
[TS]
◼
►
of cleaning anyway yes this is the rare
[TS]
◼
►
crime caper movie that also has like big
[TS]
◼
►
laughs but that doesn't pull its punches
[TS]
◼
►
and violence either i had a lot of
[TS]
◼
►
movies that are like that have sort of
[TS]
◼
►
you know black humor or kind of black
[TS]
◼
►
comedies this one somehow manages to be
[TS]
◼
►
like light-hearted good-natured humor
[TS]
◼
►
and terrible terrible violence both in
[TS]
◼
►
the same movie and not conflicting I
[TS]
◼
►
I've never seen a movie like this in
[TS]
◼
►
terms of mixture of elements and their
[TS]
◼
►
works as well as this does this movie is
[TS]
◼
►
probably also pick JLo i don't know that
[TS]
◼
►
i've seen a lot of general open yeah but
[TS]
◼
►
she's a celebrity supposedly at
[TS]
◼
►
everything that she's asked to do she
[TS]
◼
►
does well and that the one of the scenes
[TS]
◼
►
that stands out when they were the JLo
[TS]
◼
►
scenes for for obvious reasons but also
[TS]
◼
►
not obvious reasons is that the hotel
[TS]
◼
►
romance scene between her and George
[TS]
◼
►
Clooney I romance scenes in movies
[TS]
◼
►
especially like this tend to be kind of
[TS]
◼
►
like the raunchy or like cringe-inducing
[TS]
◼
►
where you watch them and you feel bad
[TS]
◼
►
for the actors you feel embarrassed for
[TS]
◼
►
the actors and for whatever reason this
[TS]
◼
►
scene maybe it's the way it's shot maybe
[TS]
◼
►
it's the music maybe it's the actress
[TS]
◼
►
maybe it's everything leading up to it I
[TS]
◼
►
I don't feel embarrassed for the actors
[TS]
◼
►
it's actually a romance seemed that that
[TS]
◼
►
is memorable like you think of you know
[TS]
◼
►
what a memorable scenes from remember
[TS]
◼
►
action scenes remember like a good line
[TS]
◼
►
from a comedy or something I remember
[TS]
◼
►
this romance scene it's not very long
[TS]
◼
►
it's not graphic I just think it's one
[TS]
◼
►
of the best done seen of that type that
[TS]
◼
►
I've seen and instead of instead of
[TS]
◼
►
feeling bad for them you kind of wish
[TS]
◼
►
you were there and I think that is a
[TS]
◼
►
very rare thing for for romance scenes
[TS]
◼
►
we saw out of sight if you haven't seen
[TS]
◼
►
it if you haven't heard of it if you
[TS]
◼
►
like George Clooney and crime stuff like
[TS]
◼
►
ocean's eleven or whatever I check it
[TS]
◼
►
best steven soderbergh movie ever yeah I
[TS]
◼
►
think you're right all right and great
[TS]
◼
►
great movie looks great
[TS]
◼
►
the tone is fantastic this is again in
[TS]
◼
►
Elmore Leonard this is a jlo explain
[TS]
◼
►
Karen Sisco right who's then Carla
[TS]
◼
►
cugino played in the tvs short-lived
[TS]
◼
►
excellent TV series of the same name and
[TS]
◼
►
that scene in the trunk of the car man
[TS]
◼
►
who great stuff kinda kinda almost had
[TS]
◼
►
her reprise that role unjustified which
[TS]
◼
►
is also an Elmore Leonard baby yepp show
[TS]
◼
►
which was kind of a nice touch
[TS]
◼
►
well she's she's Karen but she has
[TS]
◼
►
they've excused it is it's her married
[TS]
◼
►
last name right because they can't
[TS]
◼
►
officially use Karen Sisco because ABC
[TS]
◼
►
right now and it ran it into the ground
[TS]
◼
►
yeah yeah it's too bad John that's a
[TS]
◼
►
great pic and it was a time not kidding
[TS]
◼
►
actually on my list and I have to take
[TS]
◼
►
it off now so damn you
[TS]
◼
►
yep those my number two yeah
[TS]
◼
►
dan it's your turn hey my turn great
[TS]
◼
►
well I was trying to think of what sort
[TS]
◼
►
of tie these movies together and I think
[TS]
◼
►
the only thing I've really got is their
[TS]
◼
►
movies that I like so much that I feel
[TS]
◼
►
like you know if I meet someone in there
[TS]
◼
►
like you know I've never seen that movie
[TS]
◼
►
like we have to sit down and watch this
[TS]
◼
►
movie now and so my first pick in that
[TS]
◼
►
regard is I think a very topical movie
[TS]
◼
►
interestingly enough even though it is
[TS]
◼
►
over 20 years old now and that is the
[TS]
◼
►
1992 film sneakers we like Robert
[TS]
◼
►
Redford Sidney Poitier committee
[TS]
◼
►
Busfield dan Aykroyd great cast and it's
[TS]
◼
►
a fantastic movie I i love the sort of
[TS]
◼
►
techno thrillers but i love these spin
[TS]
◼
►
on this particular one which is that 799
[TS]
◼
►
to it's about kind of at that point
[TS]
◼
►
aging Robert Redford and in the first
[TS]
◼
►
scene of the movie where they're
[TS]
◼
►
basically it's this company is hired to
[TS]
◼
►
break into other companies and test
[TS]
◼
►
their security there's a scene where
[TS]
◼
►
Robert Redford tries to jump over like a
[TS]
◼
►
bank counter and falls off of it which
[TS]
◼
►
is just like pretty much just sets up
[TS]
◼
►
the movie right there was like these
[TS]
◼
►
guys are not very slick or anything like
[TS]
◼
►
that like they're really smart and they
[TS]
◼
►
know their stuff but you know they're
[TS]
◼
►
not action heroes and it's one of those
[TS]
◼
►
movies that actually does really work in
[TS]
◼
►
terms of being cerebral and clever and
[TS]
◼
►
there's not a lot of like action in it
[TS]
◼
►
but it's but it's still very engaging
[TS]
◼
►
and entertaining movie to watch and to
[TS]
◼
►
me it's one of you know it's a super
[TS]
◼
►
quotable movie to write you know I think
[TS]
◼
►
there's you know even even people who
[TS]
◼
►
probably don't even haven't seen this
[TS]
◼
►
movie might have heard of like seatac
[TS]
◼
►
astronomy recommend see too many secrets
[TS]
◼
►
right like that's my lord there by me
[TS]
◼
►
but there's just so many other mean my
[TS]
◼
►
personal favorite character in the movie
[TS]
◼
►
i think is probably Whistler who is who
[TS]
◼
►
is blind but is really really good at
[TS]
◼
►
like start picking out audio stuffing
[TS]
◼
►
like he's got this whole like setup
[TS]
◼
►
where he can remix up in one notable
[TS]
◼
►
seen reconfigures out they could be path
[TS]
◼
►
Robert Redford character character was
[TS]
◼
►
like kidnapped and taken down based on
[TS]
◼
►
like the seams in the concrete of the
[TS]
◼
►
that he goes across which is just it's
[TS]
◼
►
super clever like and you don't seem
[TS]
◼
►
like that kind of thought go into most
[TS]
◼
►
movies I feel like and because it deals
[TS]
◼
►
with encryption and the NSA which is you
[TS]
◼
►
know just a topic on everybody's mind
[TS]
◼
►
these days but they're in to my mind
[TS]
◼
►
there's nobody in this movie who is out
[TS]
◼
►
of place like the cast is excellent
[TS]
◼
►
it's really well-written it's funny but
[TS]
◼
►
it's also got it sort of dark moments i
[TS]
◼
►
love i will say the one thing which I
[TS]
◼
►
love although I admit it's also terrible
[TS]
◼
►
as ben kingsley as the sort of villain
[TS]
◼
►
his News New Jersey accent is kind of
[TS]
◼
►
hilarious to my mind I always always
[TS]
◼
►
this would be a disaster terrible
[TS]
◼
►
terrible but still fun and I just you
[TS]
◼
►
know you even got like the underlings
[TS]
◼
►
played by Timothy Busfield mary jones
[TS]
◼
►
who are kind of jerks and punch Robert
[TS]
◼
►
Redford a bunch of times in the face
[TS]
◼
►
there's great scene where a climactic
[TS]
◼
►
scene in the movie with Robert Redford
[TS]
◼
►
has to go across a room but can't move
[TS]
◼
►
very fast because of the motion sensors
[TS]
◼
►
which is so great and like the tension
[TS]
◼
►
in that is so well done it doesn't need
[TS]
◼
►
to be like this huge long chase you're
[TS]
◼
►
just like watching like there's one that
[TS]
◼
►
some of the guys tells me like a little
[TS]
◼
►
Europeans like you better hurry up
[TS]
◼
►
because like I'm going as fast as I can
[TS]
◼
►
and I you know it's one of those movies
[TS]
◼
►
that in my head i just i quote you know
[TS]
◼
►
like all the time things come up that
[TS]
◼
►
you know and it's one of my favorite
[TS]
◼
►
favorite movies and if you haven't if
[TS]
◼
►
any of you haven't seen it
[TS]
◼
►
you're dead to me I love this wonderful
[TS]
◼
►
movie but i think the great thing about
[TS]
◼
►
it is that it's one of the few movies
[TS]
◼
►
that seems to get like hacking a hacker
[TS]
◼
►
call ya correct like to break into the
[TS]
◼
►
system see that's not scruffy guy give
[TS]
◼
►
me hot pockets and eight cases redbull
[TS]
◼
►
we're gonna start at dance by this
[TS]
◼
►
keyboard is like no we have to trick me
[TS]
◼
►
there's a voice password we have to
[TS]
◼
►
trick this guy to give it the recording
[TS]
◼
►
his voice right the social social
[TS]
◼
►
exactly yeah it comes across and you
[TS]
◼
►
know that's that's a big part of it too
[TS]
◼
►
this movie is one of the movies i
[TS]
◼
►
remember when I've seen a movie and I at
[TS]
◼
►
the end of it I say to myself or to all
[TS]
◼
►
those around me in the theater I shouted
[TS]
◼
►
at the screen and wave my fist around
[TS]
◼
►
why are there more
[TS]
◼
►
movies like this right then why aren't
[TS]
◼
►
there more movies like this in this
[TS]
◼
►
yes sneakers got cut it's kind of like
[TS]
◼
►
some of the seventies
[TS]
◼
►
yeah techno throws like three days
[TS]
◼
►
regional director exactly another
[TS]
◼
►
Redford another red room well i think
[TS]
◼
►
that's that's the direct link right and
[TS]
◼
►
then and there also there's also direct
[TS]
◼
►
link because he is also driving the same
[TS]
◼
►
karmann ghia Robert Redford as he drove
[TS]
◼
►
his characters drove in the three
[TS]
◼
►
dresses three days of the Condor
[TS]
◼
►
and-and-and wearing the same baseball
[TS]
◼
►
jacket he wore in the natural so he was
[TS]
◼
►
like Santa and budget assuring I think
[TS]
◼
►
so well really be almost kinda you can
[TS]
◼
►
almost kinda justify like and I was one
[TS]
◼
►
of those movies that's kind of feels
[TS]
◼
►
like an unofficial sequel in some way
[TS]
◼
►
yeah yeah yeah but it's it's a and
[TS]
◼
►
actually out of sight I have the same
[TS]
◼
►
thing which is like more movies like
[TS]
◼
►
you know that's that's a good sign when
[TS]
◼
►
you're like why you aren't there more
[TS]
◼
►
like this this seems like do more like
[TS]
◼
►
this this is a good one also robert
[TS]
◼
►
redford scene with how do you break a
[TS]
◼
►
key keypad combination lock on my door
[TS]
◼
►
is just a thing of a thing of beauty
[TS]
◼
►
yeah sneakers is one of those movies
[TS]
◼
►
that does technology and did it
[TS]
◼
►
acknowledges that they're gonna have to
[TS]
◼
►
have some fake bogus crazy technology
[TS]
◼
►
thing like is there MacGuffin type thing
[TS]
◼
►
but the be reworded but but still never
[TS]
◼
►
manages like it doesn't annoy
[TS]
◼
►
technically it's basically like that's
[TS]
◼
►
that's difficult thing can you make a
[TS]
◼
►
movie about technology that doesn't
[TS]
◼
►
drive people who are knowledgeable in
[TS]
◼
►
the field bubble wall and one way to
[TS]
◼
►
just get every single thing right and be
[TS]
◼
►
realistic that's not what this movie
[TS]
◼
►
does this movie gets to be a fun
[TS]
◼
►
interesting movie and doesn't annoy with
[TS]
◼
►
the the fake technology right well
[TS]
◼
►
because they don't go too much into the
[TS]
◼
►
details they give you sort of the broad
[TS]
◼
►
strokes of something that is
[TS]
◼
►
theoretically possible right which is
[TS]
◼
►
that all encryption is really based on
[TS]
◼
►
the same idea and if you could figure
[TS]
◼
►
out a way to exploit that idea you could
[TS]
◼
►
you know figure out a way to break all
[TS]
◼
►
the encryption but at the same time you
[TS]
◼
►
don't really go into the nitty-gritty of
[TS]
◼
►
they don't start being a scriptwriters
[TS]
◼
►
today feel the need to go to the
[TS]
◼
►
internet and type forward into the into
[TS]
◼
►
a search box and get like synonyms and
[TS]
◼
►
they just start throwing words in there
[TS]
◼
►
remember when they discover the word
[TS]
◼
►
firewall it was all downhill out all
[TS]
◼
►
right then that's a great pic and it's
[TS]
◼
►
my turn to finish out the first round
[TS]
◼
►
yes we've only done the first round
[TS]
◼
►
terrible people I'm going to actually
[TS]
◼
►
David said something that I thought was
[TS]
◼
►
really interesting about a one of my
[TS]
◼
►
favorite writers and a movie based on
[TS]
◼
►
one of his novels Wonderboys III one of
[TS]
◼
►
my other favorite writers is nick hornby
[TS]
◼
►
and I have a huge amount of affection
[TS]
◼
►
for the 2000ad application of his novel
[TS]
◼
►
high-fidelity starring John Cusack and
[TS]
◼
►
so I'm gonna pick it for my first-round
[TS]
◼
►
selection directed by stephen frears I
[TS]
◼
►
was so skeptical of a film adaptation of
[TS]
◼
►
the book high-fidelity I love that book
[TS]
◼
►
i think it is a wonderful encapsulation
[TS]
◼
►
of a lot of things about what it means
[TS]
◼
►
to be an incredibly shallow 20-something
[TS]
◼
►
man uh home and I always thought that it
[TS]
◼
►
was a very interesting maybe interesting
[TS]
◼
►
narrator this guy who's sort of trying
[TS]
◼
►
to reel sort of realizing that he needs
[TS]
◼
►
to move on with his life and grow up and
[TS]
◼
►
yet at the same time cannot get out of
[TS]
◼
►
his his obsessions and bad habits and
[TS]
◼
►
bad behavior that there's a lot of music
[TS]
◼
►
in the book lots of lists of songs and
[TS]
◼
►
references to pop music and also I felt
[TS]
◼
►
it was a really very very English book
[TS]
◼
►
lots of soccer references because nick
[TS]
◼
►
hornby is a huge soccer fan and I
[TS]
◼
►
thought there was no way that they could
[TS]
◼
►
translate this into a movie set in
[TS]
◼
►
Chicago starring John Cusack and you
[TS]
◼
►
know what I love it I love John Cusack
[TS]
◼
►
in it he plays he's he's likable in all
[TS]
◼
►
the ways you need them to be likable and
[TS]
◼
►
yet is also unlikable in all the ways
[TS]
◼
►
that character needs to be unlikable and
[TS]
◼
►
make bad decisions and be more
[TS]
◼
►
interested in himself than anybody else
[TS]
◼
►
jack black gives a really good
[TS]
◼
►
performance i would say other than
[TS]
◼
►
school of rock perhaps i think it's it's
[TS]
◼
►
maybe his best he is a incredibly
[TS]
◼
►
obnoxious awful record store clerk and
[TS]
◼
►
is perfect doing a stretch its treatment
[TS]
◼
►
fries that he could say perfect but then
[TS]
◼
►
he yes he sings at the end in a
[TS]
◼
►
wonderfully see that for the end you're
[TS]
◼
►
thinking that he's gonna be awful then
[TS]
◼
►
suddenly ever goes oh very divergent the
[TS]
◼
►
Uptown five you know instead of kathleen
[TS]
◼
►
turner overdrive
[TS]
◼
►
dr uh great great stuff there and they
[TS]
◼
►
they cast a Danish actress she's really
[TS]
◼
►
likable as this as his longtime
[TS]
◼
►
girlfriend and you know she leaves and
[TS]
◼
►
ends up with tim robbins in a
[TS]
◼
►
fantastically scuzzy annoying hateful
[TS]
◼
►
part get your patchouli stinker out of
[TS]
◼
►
my record store ah and and there are
[TS]
◼
►
some really nice moments in this movie
[TS]
◼
►
where john cusack actually speaks to the
[TS]
◼
►
camera and talks about as he's kind of
[TS]
◼
►
going through what it what the deal is
[TS]
◼
►
with his life and trying to figure out
[TS]
◼
►
how he screwed everything up including
[TS]
◼
►
my favorite thing in this movie probably
[TS]
◼
►
is how he also has always imagined his
[TS]
◼
►
funeral and the songs that are playing
[TS]
◼
►
you know a beautiful woman stands up at
[TS]
◼
►
the front of the UH of the of the chapel
[TS]
◼
►
and sings you're the best thing that
[TS]
◼
►
ever happened to me and he pauses but
[TS]
◼
►
who would that woman be and he realizes
[TS]
◼
►
there's not going to be anybody up at
[TS]
◼
►
his funeral because of the way he's
[TS]
◼
►
living his life in the way he treats the
[TS]
◼
►
women in his life and it's a wonderful
[TS]
◼
►
moment where that's like he grows up all
[TS]
◼
►
the sudden so I like it a lot it's funny
[TS]
◼
►
it's smart and it manages to actually
[TS]
◼
►
properly adapt a novel i love and not
[TS]
◼
►
screw it up so high fidelity there it is
[TS]
◼
►
it's good music into that they did a
[TS]
◼
►
good job with the music which is a must
[TS]
◼
►
in a moving excellent use of the beta
[TS]
◼
►
yes Oh driving rain whatta whatta ya
[TS]
◼
►
what a great sign which is l eight
[TS]
◼
►
copies of this of the three eps around
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
copies than that as it turns out to have
[TS]
◼
►
a three-piece been debated pan now I
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
interacting in comfortable episode 6 we

◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
yeah she got it on that yeah i got
[TS]
◼
►
Diamondback and Europe
[TS]
◼
►
well I have to I have to employ some
[TS]
◼
►
agility here fortunately I had like a
[TS]
◼
►
short list of like 10 movies to choose
[TS]
◼
►
from and given that we're supposed to be
[TS]
◼
►
programming a day of a film festival my
[TS]
◼
►
original the program was going to be was
[TS]
◼
►
was was going to be the conversation
[TS]
◼
►
three days of the Condor and then
[TS]
◼
►
hello based on our trilogy but i have
[TS]
◼
►
but since i have given that the net with
[TS]
◼
►
Dennis Miller system with one out now
[TS]
◼
►
could be it could be a sucky hacker
[TS]
◼
►
movie trailer just follow follow the
[TS]
◼
►
conversation with enemy of the state
[TS]
◼
►
exam and a Faraday cage again at first I
[TS]
◼
►
get gene hackman doing one of those
[TS]
◼
►
uncredited sequels to the I was
[TS]
◼
►
definitely very call under another name
[TS]
◼
►
as the Savior reason that movie
[TS]
◼
►
yeah but I did okay but i did find
[TS]
◼
►
another another wolf full day program
[TS]
◼
►
three of three movies i'm switching to
[TS]
◼
►
now with my second movie pick which is
[TS]
◼
►
the taking of pelham 123 which has three
[TS]
◼
►
making access right I've started the
[TS]
◼
►
would the Goodwin the 1974 one but
[TS]
◼
►
processes that off the list
[TS]
◼
►
it's it's has a connection to the
[TS]
◼
►
conversation because it's a 1917 for
[TS]
◼
►
movie that is so totally set in New York
[TS]
◼
►
City so totally set with location
[TS]
◼
►
shooting in the city that that the story
[TS]
◼
►
takes place and so I have a sense that
[TS]
◼
►
this is a much better movie for us
[TS]
◼
►
watching it today than it would have
[TS]
◼
►
been in 1974 because it is the story of
[TS]
◼
►
it's a it's a it's a it's a thriller in
[TS]
◼
►
which people some armed men hijack a
[TS]
◼
►
subway train which is the dumbest thing
[TS]
◼
►
to hijack because it's sort of us can go
[TS]
◼
►
forward and backward so they can
[TS]
◼
►
probably they've got a 50-50 chance of
[TS]
◼
►
the cops are figuring out where you're
[TS]
◼
►
going with this thing so but that's but
[TS]
◼
►
that's part of like that the challenge
[TS]
◼
►
of the film where the transit cops try
[TS]
◼
►
to figure out what okay you have clearly
[TS]
◼
►
you have like 20 people hostage you have
[TS]
◼
►
machine guns you're promising to kill to
[TS]
◼
►
kill them off if we don't give you don't
[TS]
◼
►
get us if we don't give you a million
[TS]
◼
►
dollars in an hour we have no idea how
[TS]
◼
►
your plan to get out of here because
[TS]
◼
►
we're so totally going to bag your butt
[TS]
◼
►
but all right to keep you from two to
[TS]
◼
►
figure out what your next move is sure
[TS]
◼
►
here you know we will try to get you the
[TS]
◼
►
million dollars so with it has to really
[TS]
◼
►
great features that make it an awesome
[TS]
◼
►
number one it doesn't follow what we've
[TS]
◼
►
seen so many thrillers of this type that
[TS]
◼
►
we sort of already know that it goes
[TS]
◼
►
beat for beat for beat for beat for beat
[TS]
◼
►
and maybe there can be two alternatives
[TS]
◼
►
for a couple different points in the
[TS]
◼
►
story but we pretty much know how this
[TS]
◼
►
plays out this does not follow that road
[TS]
◼
►
map at all so you really are feeling as
[TS]
◼
►
you're watching it that this story can
[TS]
◼
►
go anywhere you don't know what's going
[TS]
◼
►
to happen and the second part is this is
[TS]
◼
►
technically like an action-thriller in
[TS]
◼
►
which every person is a doughy
[TS]
◼
►
middle-aged character actor male
[TS]
◼
►
character actor Walter Matthau is your
[TS]
◼
►
action hero here and this was like the
[TS]
◼
►
last movie he did because the last the
[TS]
◼
►
movie action movie he did because he had
[TS]
◼
►
good quintuple bypass surgery like about
[TS]
◼
►
a week after shooting stopped so you got
[TS]
◼
►
Walter Matthau being Walton a fall
[TS]
◼
►
throughout this and
[TS]
◼
►
I a movie and it's an effort not only
[TS]
◼
►
that but every single character actor
[TS]
◼
►
you can name that is like again Joey
[TS]
◼
►
middle-aged white guy from the seventies
[TS]
◼
►
Jerry Stiller is a cop and that and
[TS]
◼
►
that's been with the character of of all
[TS]
◼
►
the people in this movie the end the
[TS]
◼
►
last really great thing about it is that
[TS]
◼
►
i love these stories that are sort of
[TS]
◼
►
that of course are set before the
[TS]
◼
►
internet before computing power and
[TS]
◼
►
there it at some point Walter Matthau
[TS]
◼
►
gets this idea that oh well that's it
[TS]
◼
►
well we gotta figure out what if they're
[TS]
◼
►
doing this they must have a person with
[TS]
◼
►
a specific kind of expertise call the
[TS]
◼
►
computer center get me a list of
[TS]
◼
►
everybody who matches this like list of
[TS]
◼
►
qualifications and it's like all right
[TS]
◼
►
do we should have the answer about 19
[TS]
◼
►
hours because we have to send people
[TS]
◼
►
with punch cards and put tapes onto
[TS]
◼
►
under reels and stuff like that so this
[TS]
◼
►
is this is a movie in which the most
[TS]
◼
►
important the only really big piece of
[TS]
◼
►
technology is a huge motorola
[TS]
◼
►
walkie-talkie and but it's still a
[TS]
◼
►
really compelling movies it's one of my
[TS]
◼
►
favorites and it's like I forget all
[TS]
◼
►
about it until it turns up on turner
[TS]
◼
►
classic movies and then I coat tell
[TS]
◼
►
pelham 123 I can see this click I'm done
[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►

[TS]
◼
►
David your turn alright having crossed
[TS]
◼
►
off out of sight in Pelham one two whole
[TS]
◼
►
shut your mouth just talk about right
[TS]
◼
►
what's the uncomfortable premise that's
[TS]
◼
►
getting a little tired and people might
[TS]
◼
►
be seeking damn right I can do and we
[TS]
◼
►
all just go home located idea but we
[TS]
◼
►
really simplify the hell out of it
[TS]
◼
►
that's right let's not break Jason again
[TS]
◼
►
we just got them fixed from the last
[TS]
◼
►
it's not a snake draft alright go ahead
[TS]
◼
►
David but ok for my second pic I'm going
[TS]
◼
►
to take the royal tenenbaums which is a
[TS]
◼
►
wes anderson film it was his guess was
[TS]
◼
►
his follow-up to Rushmore
[TS]
◼
►
yeah and you know people talk about
[TS]
◼
►
Rushmore they talk about Moonrise
[TS]
◼
►
Kingdom now which I also really really
[TS]
◼
►
love but the run tenenbaums just creates
[TS]
◼
►
a world and it sticks to it and it is
[TS]
◼
►
this fantasy New York that you know the
[TS]
◼
►
they go to the 375th street y which you
[TS]
◼
►
know but it's it's this wonderful
[TS]
◼
►
portrait of a family of genius children
[TS]
◼
►
who failed to live up to their potential
[TS]
◼
►
and you have gene hackman again again as
[TS]
◼
►
the patriarch the near near do L
[TS]
◼
►
patriarch royal tenenbaum and Angelica
[TS]
◼
►
Huston is his estranged wife and danny
[TS]
◼
►
glover as the man who is courting
[TS]
◼
►
Angelica i have been stiller and Gwyneth
[TS]
◼
►
Paltrow and owen wilson and luke wilson
[TS]
◼
►
all the actors who appear in all of West
[TS]
◼
►
Edison's movies are ya
[TS]
◼
►
and of course Bill Murray butt itches it
[TS]
◼
►
just creates such a wonderful world and
[TS]
◼
►
again with all these intertwining
[TS]
◼
►
stories that all come together and sort
[TS]
◼
►
of focus on what do you do when you grow
[TS]
◼
►
up as a prodigy who just didn't make it
[TS]
◼
►
and it since it's just a lovely story
[TS]
◼
►
alright I I didn't love i really like
[TS]
◼
►
Rushmore and Russia I was sort of let
[TS]
◼
►
down by royal tenenbaums but that's ok
[TS]
◼
►
people love I find hate toward west
[TS]
◼
►
anderson fascinating because he seems
[TS]
◼
►
his movie seemed to do what they say on
[TS]
◼
►
the tin and if you don't like one of his
[TS]
◼
►
movies I think you maybe don't like his
[TS]
◼
►
movies because he does his thing
[TS]
◼
►
it's you know you're all of a kind
[TS]
◼
►
they're all kind of unrealistic and
[TS]
◼
►
heightened and even a fantastic mr fox
[TS]
◼
►
is so clearly west and yeah and i like
[TS]
◼
►
that 10 yeah he's obviously doing
[TS]
◼
►
whatever he's doing on purpose
[TS]
◼
►
this is yes it's not present but it's
[TS]
◼
►
really neat because fantastic mr fox is
[TS]
◼
►
an actual children's book and royal
[TS]
◼
►
tenenbaums has the feel of a children's
[TS]
◼
►
book you know it has that sort of
[TS]
◼
►
fantasy world that are built
[TS]
◼
►
and you know my kids love fantastic mr
[TS]
◼
►
fox and they've started watching the
[TS]
◼
►
other ones i haven't seen Moonrise
[TS]
◼
►
Kingdom but my wife saw it and she said
[TS]
◼
►
it was actually very good to something
[TS]
◼
►
like that yeah i still think Rushmore is
[TS]
◼
►
is his best but I liked Moonrise Kingdom
[TS]
◼
►
a lot yeah moon rises because maybe as
[TS]
◼
►
most mature oddly enough
[TS]
◼
►
yeah ironic because it's my children and
[TS]
◼
►
moonrise brings them closer to his
[TS]
◼
►
ultimate career goal which is to create
[TS]
◼
►
a film in which you can cut the negative
[TS]
◼
►
down the middle and distributes two
[TS]
◼
►
halves and then just duplicate the haps
[TS]
◼
►
the movie will be exactly the same
[TS]
◼
►
huh he's very he's getting very close
[TS]
◼
►
I haven't seen racing them yet that's a
[TS]
◼
►
little bit like saying I haven't seen
[TS]
◼
►
evil dead two yet
[TS]
◼
►
does that mean you will see it
[TS]
◼
►
eventually sorry I'm doing facility
[TS]
◼
►
that's a good 1i Steve it's your turn
[TS]
◼
►
yay i'm going to take 1980 tues
[TS]
◼
►
poltergeist 1982 horror film in here
[TS]
◼
►
it's the it's the steven spielberg
[TS]
◼
►
horror movie that's not about sharks
[TS]
◼
►
produced and written by spielberg
[TS]
◼
►
possibly directed by tobe hooper
[TS]
◼
►
probably mostly by spielberg there's
[TS]
◼
►
some controversy with a bloodless let's
[TS]
◼
►
just say that her a lot of wide-eyed
[TS]
◼
►
reaction shots which of course to tobe
[TS]
◼
►
hooper's very well known for but in
[TS]
◼
►
texas chainsaw massacre
[TS]
◼
►
yeah when I first when i first saw
[TS]
◼
►
poltergeist I thought it was probably
[TS]
◼
►
the scariest movie i've ever seen
[TS]
◼
►
although some of that is probably down
[TS]
◼
►
to the way I first saw it I was would
[TS]
◼
►
say about 11 or 12 years old alone in my
[TS]
◼
►
parents house they were out for the
[TS]
◼
►
evening every sliding door in the house
[TS]
◼
►
was open because it's been a hot day
[TS]
◼
►
every light but the one in the living
[TS]
◼
►
room is off haha I yeah my parents house
[TS]
◼
►
was kind of long one of your neighbors
[TS]
◼
►
was was had gotten a side of beef and
[TS]
◼
►
was had a big knife and was chopping it
[TS]
◼
►
up into little pieces and the trees it
[TS]
◼
►
was the trees outside the windows right
[TS]
◼
►
yeah yeah and read let you know is that
[TS]
◼
►
i lived in a house it was kind of freaky
[TS]
◼
►
anyway I just redlands in general is
[TS]
◼
►
sort of semi well known for having a lot
[TS]
◼
►
of ghostly activity in fact they
[TS]
◼
►
actually mention it in this movie which
[TS]
◼
►
kind of ya heard me a little bit too
[TS]
◼
►
would think so yeah I think I think why
[TS]
◼
►
it's so effective is because it hits on
[TS]
◼
►
nearly every childhood fear you get the
[TS]
◼
►
spooky tree outside that the creepy ass
[TS]
◼
►
clown doll which as far as I'm concerned
[TS]
◼
►
is reason for CPS to get involved who
[TS]
◼
►
would buy that for their children who
[TS]
◼
►
puts that in their child's room and
[TS]
◼
►
expects them to to have a normal life
[TS]
◼
►
yeah the monster in the closet you got
[TS]
◼
►
the great nightmare scenario where
[TS]
◼
►
jobeth williams is trapped in the muddy
[TS]
◼
►
pool with a bunch of bobbing grinning
[TS]
◼
►
skeletons and then she nearly closed our
[TS]
◼
►
way out and then slips and slides right
[TS]
◼
►
back into the pool so it's just it's
[TS]
◼
►
really effective at kind of hitting the
[TS]
◼
►
primal fears that you had when you were
[TS]
◼
►
ten years old or eight years old and
[TS]
◼
►
since I was about 10 or 11 when I was
[TS]
◼
►
watching it did a pretty good job on me
[TS]
◼
►
but I rewatched this last night for the
[TS]
◼
►
first time in quite awhile and well I
[TS]
◼
►
think it's still pretty effective on
[TS]
◼
►
that sort of childhood fear level now
[TS]
◼
►
that I'm a parent is taken on this whole
[TS]
◼
►
different flavor because in addition to
[TS]
◼
►
all those childish fears i now see it a
[TS]
◼
►
heaping helping of the very adult fear
[TS]
◼
►
of losing a child and you know when
[TS]
◼
►
Caroline sort of disappears into the
[TS]
◼
►
it's a really well acted movie I that
[TS]
◼
►
both cranky Nelson and jobeth williams
[TS]
◼
►
do a superb job of really kind of
[TS]
◼
►
putting out that their child is gone and
[TS]
◼
►
they don't know where they can hear
[TS]
◼
►
coming from the TV and they have no idea
[TS]
◼
►
what to do you know you you get this
[TS]
◼
►
this shot of cranky Nelson after some
[TS]
◼
►
time has passed after she's been sucked
[TS]
◼
►
into the closet he just looks like
[TS]
◼
►
absolute hell he clearly hasn't slept in
[TS]
◼
►
weeks but in the family are holding it
[TS]
◼
►
together just out of sheer love for each
[TS]
◼
►
other and trying to make sure the other
[TS]
◼
►
kids don't lose it it's really it's why
[TS]
◼
►
the sequel i think was so disappointing
[TS]
◼
►
because that film kind of turn the whole
[TS]
◼
►
family into a bunch of a-holes
[TS]
◼
►
but yeah it's it's good on a lot of
[TS]
◼
►
levels and very well paced very well
[TS]
◼
►
directed there's a terrific Lee haunting
[TS]
◼
►
main theme that Jerry Goldsmith did that
[TS]
◼
►
sticks in your head and oscar-nominated
[TS]
◼
►
hangs around your leave
[TS]
◼
►
alright I think so alright this movie
[TS]
◼
►
messed me up so much for the kid it so
[TS]
◼
►
much and I get it you came out of it
[TS]
◼
►
like you like horror movies now right
[TS]
◼
►
this movie terrified for most of my
[TS]
◼
►
childhood terrified me never want to see
[TS]
◼
►
her movies I don't have affection for
[TS]
◼
►
this movie I actually kind of hate it
[TS]
◼
►
because it is terrorized me
[TS]
◼
►
yeah I saw it actually already seen my
[TS]
◼
►
fair share of worst horror movies by
[TS]
◼
►
this point in terms of just being more
[TS]
◼
►
disturbing so no movie I ever see will
[TS]
◼
►
be a scary as poltergeist him it was to
[TS]
◼
►
me when I said yet I still think it's up
[TS]
◼
►
there and probably my top 5 of genuinely
[TS]
◼
►
scary horror movies so it's good stuff
[TS]
◼
►
alright that's a good pic and of course
[TS]
◼
►
I i look to you to provide us with some
[TS]
◼
►
more so I'm glad you did i do what i can
[TS]
◼
►
also over moving now I clear your mind
[TS]
◼
►
Jason and it knows what scares you
[TS]
◼
►
hmm Monty it's your turn let me tell you
[TS]
◼
►
about Miami connection that there's a
[TS]
◼
►
movie made in 1987 by a taekwondo
[TS]
◼
►
instructor listening
[TS]
◼
►
it's the story of a rock band composed
[TS]
◼
►
exclusively of orphans that mall no
[TS]
◼
►
Taekwondo and they are fighting a group
[TS]
◼
►
of ninjas that wrote it right around on
[TS]
◼
►
motorcycles selling cocaine now it does
[TS]
◼
►
not take place in Miami always called
[TS]
◼
►
miami connection it's actually in
[TS]
◼
►
orlando at the central florida
[TS]
◼
►
university most of the time nobody knows
[TS]
◼
►
why it's called miami connection my
[TS]
◼
►
guess is it's supposed to be a play on
[TS]
◼
►
the french connection with the cocaine
[TS]
◼
►
there's six people in this band two of
[TS]
◼
►
them were hired because they could act
[TS]
◼
►
two of them were hired because they
[TS]
◼
►
could do Taekwondo and two of them were
[TS]
◼
►
hired because they could look remotely
[TS]
◼
►
plausible holding musical instruments
[TS]
◼
►
the problem is that all six of them then
[TS]
◼
►
have to do all three of those things so
[TS]
◼
►
when they're being a band singing great
[TS]
◼
►
songs like against the ninja only two of
[TS]
◼
►
them look like they've ever seen a
[TS]
◼
►
guitar before and then when they're
[TS]
◼
►
only two of them seem like they reverse
[TS]
◼
►
spoken before this movie was
[TS]
◼
►
rediscovered I think two years ago by
[TS]
◼
►
the drafthouse people in austin and it
[TS]
◼
►
is crazy they but apparently bought it
[TS]
◼
►
on ebay and then restored it because of
[TS]
◼
►
the area why do I know this movie
[TS]
◼
►
because you're mentioning announcing
[TS]
◼
►
scenes of it in my head I'm afraid I
[TS]
◼
►
might have seen his phone
[TS]
◼
►
well you might have seen it 1987 then it
[TS]
◼
►
vanished but the people who run the
[TS]
◼
►
alamo drafthouse in austin just by all
[TS]
◼
►
the film came they can get on ebay and
[TS]
◼
►
then they show them to people in austin
[TS]
◼
►
to an unsuspecting public just blind
[TS]
◼
►
like here's what we got in this can ban
[TS]
◼
►
but it wasn't terrified represent corn
[TS]
◼
►
know it's gonna be thinking probably
[TS]
◼
►
three things all the time i'm always
[TS]
◼
►
thinking 50-percent board you're right
[TS]
◼
►
this movie has about 10 minutes of
[TS]
◼
►
random toplessness because to fill out
[TS]
◼
►
the runtime its database to they went to
[TS]
◼
►
a biker rally and just got some footage
[TS]
◼
►
of a bunch of topless women ended up
[TS]
◼
►
wanting to do with the movie and
[TS]
◼
►
probably what might happen in Florida
[TS]
◼
►
nobody can tell so what's what what
[TS]
◼
►
happens what's the plot
[TS]
◼
►
ok so you've got this rock band the
[TS]
◼
►
orphan to know taekwondo right and
[TS]
◼
►
another band is angry that this band
[TS]
◼
►
took their spot at what is apparently
[TS]
◼
►
the only night club in orlando so the
[TS]
◼
►
band goes to the cocaine selling
[TS]
◼
►
motorcycle ninjas who are also run by
[TS]
◼
►
the brother of somebody in this band and
[TS]
◼
►
they say you gotta get this band out of
[TS]
◼
►
the way so there are a bunch of fights
[TS]
◼
►
with shockingly violent special-effects
[TS]
◼
►
a river literally red is red with blood
[TS]
◼
►
at one point that's pretty much the
[TS]
◼
►
whole plot all right I think I don't
[TS]
◼
►
think I'm glad we have at least one
[TS]
◼
►
person here who's taking this seriously
[TS]
◼
►
yeah listen I don't think the world
[TS]
◼
►
needs you guys to tell them did you know
[TS]
◼
►
there's a movie called The Terminator
[TS]
◼
►
if one person guts goes out and sees
[TS]
◼
►
Miami connection which somehow has a DVD
[TS]
◼
►
release i will have lived an honorable
[TS]
◼
►
alright fair enough Aaron a lotta that's
[TS]
◼
►
a lotta hinges upon monday with a funny
[TS]
◼
►
looking at the Alamo Drafthouse is
[TS]
◼
►
trying to sell beer and popcorn
[TS]
◼
►
what's your excuse for promoting the
[TS]
◼
►
film this movie is amazing its raw
[TS]
◼
►
emotion fun exciting cinematic
[TS]
◼
►
experiences I have ever had
[TS]
◼
►
ok so you say is so you're telling
[TS]
◼
►
somebody you're you have access to the
[TS]
◼
►
entire film library that's available
[TS]
◼
►
you can buy either the third man or this
[TS]
◼
►
movie you should not buy the third man
[TS]
◼
►
you should definitely go for this you
[TS]
◼
►
rent this but I don't know AK you can
[TS]
◼
►
write down like that sounds like a step
[TS]
◼
►
this movie has everything you have an
[TS]
◼
►
entire internet telling you you should
[TS]
◼
►
watch the third man screw those guys but
[TS]
◼
►
more people need to tell you about Miami
[TS]
◼
►
ok alright Miami connection is a unique
[TS]
◼
►
movie it's made by somebody who doesn't
[TS]
◼
►
really know what goes into movies and
[TS]
◼
►
ninety percent of the time that comes
[TS]
◼
►
out as unwatchable horrible wreck and
[TS]
◼
►
one percent of the time it's amazing
[TS]
◼
►
outsider art and that's what happened
[TS]
◼
►
this may be the film this time that I go
[TS]
◼
►
and watching and review yeah I may
[TS]
◼
►
actually later date need to me to see
[TS]
◼
►
this but this sounds like the sort of
[TS]

[TS]
◼
►
they asked every audition
[TS]
◼
►
every actor to the audition is do you or
[TS]
◼
►
anybody or any of your friends own a van
[TS]
◼
►
are you a ninja or film equipment that's
[TS]
◼
►
entirely possible all the seams enough
[TS]
◼
►
notice they're all wearing shirts that
[TS]
◼
►
advertise what campus there are sure a
[TS]
◼
►
chance they got some funding college
[TS]
◼
►
yeah college too alright money that's
[TS]
◼
►
that's great that's hilarious
[TS]
◼
►
actually I'm i'm going to look up Miami
[TS]
◼
►
connection John circus it's your turn
[TS]
◼
►
this movie is from 1979 those 40 people
[TS]
◼
►
or people who are kids making something
[TS]
◼
►
that is called Breaking Away which I
[TS]
◼
►
hope everybody is fine but maybe
[TS]
◼
►
youngsters here Dan more have not seen
[TS]
◼
►
this movie I've seen the TV series know
[TS]
◼
►
I have described it as a shot Cassidy's
[TS]
◼
►
in its shaun cassidy gone
[TS]
◼
►
Rorschach a supporting role forgot so is
[TS]
◼
►
that all you need to know i would say
[TS]
◼
►
this movie is it it's a coming-of-age
[TS]
◼
►
movie that made other coming of age
[TS]
◼
►
movies seem like they were lying to at
[TS]
◼
►
least two like a seven-year-old me or
[TS]
◼
►
I the cast is pretty good like it's got
[TS]
◼
►
the dennis quaid daniel stern jackie
[TS]
◼
►
earle haley and a bunch of other
[TS]
◼
►
people's names I don't know they could
[TS]
◼
►
stuff the father guy
[TS]
◼
►
stuff the father guy
[TS]
◼
►
Paul doing yeah he's a lot of things
[TS]
◼
►
he's great in this he played wimpy and
[TS]
◼
►
Popeye that's not what is best known for
[TS]
◼
►
probably not and it's the whole movie
[TS]
◼
►
features like any kind of coming-of-age
[TS]
◼
►
movie coming agent for boys i would say
[TS]
◼
►
it features older kids this must be
[TS]
◼
►
older than the kids are watching it
[TS]
◼
►
slightly older doing dangerous things
[TS]
◼
►
that kids might conceivably do like they
[TS]
◼
►
drink alcohol they get into fights a
[TS]
◼
►
chase girls they ride bicycles behind
[TS]
◼
►
semi-trucks you know that they always
[TS]
◼
►
throw on the one extra one in there
[TS]
◼
►
that's outside the realm of reason but
[TS]
◼
►
when you're watching it as like a seven
[TS]
◼
►
or eight year old and I was just
[TS]
◼
►
completely wrapped in fascinated by this
[TS]
◼
►
and I think the later movies like The
[TS]
◼
►
Breakfast Club a little bit this movie
[TS]
◼
►
in terms of the way it starts you off
[TS]
◼
►
with a bunch of stereotype characters
[TS]
◼
►
we've got the you know the slacker guy
[TS]
◼
►
the the nerdy you know the geek
[TS]
◼
►
basically was into bicycling and the
[TS]
◼
►
quarterback from the football team and
[TS]
◼
►
over the course of the we break small
[TS]
◼
►
down to show you this actually real
[TS]
◼
►
people inside those stereotypes and I it
[TS]
◼
►
you know it's not a John Hughes movie I
[TS]
◼
►
think it's more raw more kind of 70s
[TS]
◼
►
then then John Hughes movie and it holds
[TS]
◼
►
a special place in my heart again
[TS]
◼
►
probably because of the age that I saw
[TS]
◼
►
that so if you if you have children who
[TS]
◼
►
are maybe a seven eight nine year old
[TS]
◼
►
boy I secretly get them to watch this
[TS]
◼
►
movie and I think it will still work
[TS]
◼
►
oh yeah I i can say living in indiana it
[TS]
◼
►
nails Indiana and it's fun to watch
[TS]
◼
►
because my wife went to Indiana
[TS]
◼
►
University for graduate school and they
[TS]
◼
►
shot the whole thing up here so it's fun
[TS]
◼
►
to kind of see it 20 years before i was
[TS]
◼
►
there no hey there's the Union they
[TS]
◼
►
didn't used to have that there
[TS]
◼
►
oh and if only the everybody in the
[TS]
◼
►
movie was wearing shirts with the name
[TS]
◼
►
of the University on it and there i
[TS]
◼
►
would like to see you in Miami
[TS]
◼
►
connection Breaking Away mashup that
[TS]
◼
►
would be something and a guy wearing a
[TS]
◼
►
t-shirt that says hot dog and the dog
[TS]
◼
►
that you're in every movie there
[TS]
◼
►
oh yeah all right except hotdog the
[TS]
◼
►
movie ironic because they didn't have
[TS]
◼
►
the budget for it
[TS]
◼
►
Breaking Away good excellent pic John
[TS]
◼
►
damn it's your turn
[TS]
◼
►
well i'm back with another favorite of
[TS]
◼
►
mine a movie that is loosely based on a
[TS]
◼
►
shock home story actually and that is
[TS]
◼
►
jake kasdan zero effect
[TS]
◼
►
which is an excellent movie from 1998
[TS]
◼
►
that I've seen more times than I can
[TS]
◼
►
remember that basically involves the
[TS]
◼
►
story of a reclusive private I his one
[TS]
◼
►
friend and in a very strange move his
[TS]
◼
►
it's a ben stiller places assistant the
[TS]
◼
►
straight man in the movie which is
[TS]
◼
►
unusual for ben stiller and is the polar
[TS]
◼
►
opposite of what i think is stiller's
[TS]
◼
►
other best performance aside from this
[TS]
◼
►
movie which is Zoolander in which he
[TS]
◼
►
plays totally not a straight man but
[TS]
◼
►
zero effect is very very good it's it's
[TS]
◼
►
one of those lovely little like a cult
[TS]
◼
►
movies that is small in its aspiration
[TS]
◼
►
and it's setting it takes place in
[TS]
◼
►
portland oregon i belief and it's just
[TS]
◼
►
very it's a very tight
[TS]
◼
►
well plotted and not ostentatious movie
[TS]
◼
►
about this detective who is hired to
[TS]
◼
►
essentially deal with a a blackmailer
[TS]
◼
►
and it's bill pullman place the
[TS]
◼
►
detective who's kind of socially inept
[TS]
◼
►
and misanthropic and he essentially gets
[TS]
◼
►
hired by Ryan O'Neal who plays a a
[TS]
◼
►
businessman to figure out who's
[TS]
◼
►
blackmailing him and it has a couple
[TS]
◼
►
twists and turns along the way and some
[TS]
◼
►
lovely character work by Bill Pullman as
[TS]
◼
►
this shy totally out of it
[TS]
◼
►
detective and it's just it's just a
[TS]
◼
►
delightful very little movie you know
[TS]
◼
►
it's not all about boat huge set pieces
[TS]
◼
►
or what-have-you it's really just
[TS]
◼
►
focused on this character drama between
[TS]
◼
►
these these few characters but it's also
[TS]
◼
►
amazingly funny at times my favourite
[TS]
◼
►
bit from the film has to do with he's
[TS]
◼
►
writing his sort of his memoirs you know
[TS]
◼
►
about the art of detection and he has
[TS]
◼
►
this bit on finding things and it's when
[TS]
◼
►
you go looking for something specific
[TS]
◼
►
your chances of finding it are very bad
[TS]
◼
►
because of all the things in the world
[TS]
◼
►
you're only looking for one of them but
[TS]
◼
►
when you go looking for anything at all
[TS]
◼
►
your chances of finding it are very good
[TS]
◼
►
because of all the things the world
[TS]
◼
►
you're sure to find some of them
[TS]
◼
►
which i always think is a great it's
[TS]
◼
►
like when I when ya looking for your
[TS]
◼
►
keys so anyways it's a great movie lot
[TS]
◼
►
of fun small little waves totally I
[TS]
◼
►
think underrated when it came out but I
[TS]
◼
►
feel like it's a it's developed a nice
[TS]
◼
►
cult following so if you haven't seen it
[TS]
◼
►
it's well worth it
[TS]
◼
►
alright that's good zero effect they
[TS]
◼
►
would they did a TV pilot but they
[TS]
◼
►
didn't make it to the man
[TS]
◼
►
sadly all right i am up and I'm gonna go
[TS]
◼
►
with another movie beginning with Z so
[TS]
◼
►
thank you Dan sure it's from a a little
[TS]
◼
►
you have started smartest little
[TS]
◼
►
little-known meal and a little-known a
[TS]
◼
►
director writer director made this movie
[TS]
◼
►
in 1983 it's Zelig by Woody Allen I iron
[TS]
◼
►
i love Zelig I it's my favorite Woody
[TS]
◼
►
Allen movie and I like Woody Allen I
[TS]
◼
►
like a lot of his movies i could I mean
[TS]
◼
►
there there are lots of them that I love
[TS]
◼
►
actually but not live actually because
[TS]
◼
►
Richard Curtis made that Selig is
[TS]
◼
►
different in the sense that Zelig mean
[TS]
◼
►
Woody Allen for for a guy who sometimes
[TS]
◼
►
had that gives the impression that he
[TS]
◼
►
makes the same movie over and over again
[TS]
◼
►
he actually make some radically
[TS]
◼
►
different movies he has lots of kind of
[TS]
◼
►
magical realism and strange scenarios
[TS]
◼
►
and almost sci-fi elements in a lot of
[TS]
◼
►
his movies or fantasy elements is Ellie
[TS]
◼
►
has a little bit of that but it's also
[TS]
◼
►
told in mockumentary style which is
[TS]
◼
►
interesting there are special effects
[TS]
◼
►
that they had to do in order to you know
[TS]
◼
►
before Forrest Gump was made there was
[TS]
◼
►
le guerre where there was archival
[TS]
◼
►
footage that was integrated with very
[TS]
◼
►
cleverly with stuff from the actual the
[TS]
◼
►
actors in the actual movie and it's
[TS]
◼
►
telling the story of a man in letters
[TS]
◼
►
Ellie who's played by Woody Allen and he
[TS]
◼
►
is a nondescript nobody but he really
[TS]
◼
►
wants to fit in and he has this amazing
[TS]
◼
►
power to take on the characteristics of
[TS]
◼
►
whoever's around with him he is the
[TS]
◼
►
human chameleon and there are because
[TS]
◼
►
it's in this documentary and this is all
[TS]
◼
►
happening in the twenties there are all
[TS]
◼
►
of these interviews with
[TS]
◼
►
with famous people I that are in color
[TS]
◼
►
that are in the present day and then
[TS]
◼
►
there's this black and white archival
[TS]
◼
►
footage and it is ace it is in many ways
[TS]
◼
►
a silly kind of ridiculous movie but uh
[TS]
◼
►
it's got an interesting subject which is
[TS]
◼
►
somebody who just desperately wants to
[TS]
◼
►
fit in and will do anything you can to
[TS]
◼
►
it's funny mia farrow as good as the
[TS]
◼
►
psychiatrist who falls in love with the
[TS]
◼
►
changing man lots of great gags and end
[TS]
◼
►
you know a really good use of the
[TS]
◼
►
mockumentary format and then also
[TS]
◼
►
there's some some great kind of old
[TS]
◼
►
songs as well as some fake old songs
[TS]
◼
►
like the songs like do the chameleon and
[TS]
◼
►
and some great man in the street
[TS]
◼
►
interviews in the old black-and-white
[TS]
◼
►
style i remember the guy in this movie
[TS]
◼
►
who said i would like to be likely on
[TS]
◼
►
gel rig the changing man it's like oh ok
[TS]
◼
►
he didn't get his name right by whatever
[TS]
◼
►
it's a great yeah I like it a lot of my
[TS]
◼
►
favorite Woody Allen movies Zelig they
[TS]
◼
►
even got make it so i think to sing the
[TS]
◼
►
the chameleon song before the voice of
[TS]
◼
►
betty boop was still around there she
[TS]
◼
►
was analyzed when yeah she was also in
[TS]
◼
►
his new york stories vignette yeah the
[TS]
◼
►
greatest the greatest thing about this
[TS]
◼
►
movie though is that this was
[TS]
◼
►
pre-digital so everything had hinted to
[TS]
◼
►
put to put woody allen in the background
[TS]
◼
►
during an adolf hitler speech
[TS]
◼
►
how the hell'd you do that but it's
[TS]
◼
►
perfect you could not do better today
[TS]
◼
►
than you then he did in the early 80s
[TS]
◼
►
and I remember I remember reading in a
[TS]
◼
►
effects magazine about how it really was
[TS]
◼
►
all about having that kind of knowledge
[TS]
◼
►
about well here is the sort of camera
[TS]
◼
►
they would have used to shoot that in
[TS]
◼
►
nineteen nineteen thirty-nine so we got
[TS]
◼
►
to have something with the exact same
[TS]
◼
►
properties the exact same film stock but
[TS]
◼
►
oh yeah it you will be would totally
[TS]
◼
►
believe this is a documentary nothing
[TS]
◼
►
it's it's funny but nothing gives it
[TS]
◼
►
away it's not there's no point which
[TS]
◼
►
they go for the really cheap easy guy
[TS]
◼
►
because it the gag is right there
[TS]
◼
►
because they know that no no the reality
[TS]
◼
►
we've set up prohibits us from doing a
[TS]
◼
►
joke like that perfect stuff
[TS]
◼
►
alright that's two rounds of the
[TS]
◼
►
incompetent movie draft in the books
[TS]
◼
►
only three more rounds to go and
[TS]
◼
►
we'll get those three rounds in our next
[TS]
◼
►
but for now for everybody here at the
[TS]
◼
►
uncomfortable i like the bank and eco
