00:03:22
◼

00:03:25

00:03:27
◼
►
even funnier who remember to guess I
[TS]
00:03:32
◼
►
don't know why that is but it's a weird
[TS]
00:03:33
◼

sort of thing like thinking about it i
[TS]
00:03:35
◼
►
find it funny and sometimes I watching

00:03:36
◼
►
oh yeah that's really funny but it
[TS]
00:03:37
◼

[TS]
00:03:59
◼
►
actually Monty Python and the Holy Grail
[TS]
00:04:00
◼
►
was on my list but kind of off in the
[TS]
00:04:02
◼
►
corner because when i initially put it
[TS]
00:04:05
◼
►
on my list I I realized I almost
[TS]
00:04:08
◼
►
couldn't think of anything to say about
[TS]
00:04:10
◼
►
it because I've seen it so many times I
[TS]
00:04:12
◼
►
was the first one is about the memory
[TS]
00:04:14
◼
►
didn't stop Scott from pick against it
[TS]
00:04:17
◼
►
we can you say and not say anything
[TS]
00:04:19
◼
►
about it really if I know when I had
[TS]
00:04:21
◼
►
that Avenue open to me I almost
[TS]
00:04:22
◼
►
certainly would have picked in the first
[TS]
00:04:23
◼
►
round and and the eating would be in a
[TS]
00:04:27
◼
►
different mouth wouldn't it but I guess
[TS]
00:04:30
◼
►
if I let not having something to say
[TS]
00:04:32
◼
►
stop me from joining this podcast a
[TS]
00:04:34
◼
►
different view
[TS]
00:04:35
◼
►
so instead for my third pic I'm gonna go
[TS]
00:04:41
◼
►
with something that was actually
[TS]
00:04:42
◼
►
mentioned in passing in another episode
[TS]
00:04:45
◼
►
a few weeks ago but I feel it wasn't
[TS]
00:04:48
◼
►
really giving its do it is in fact a
[TS]
00:04:52
◼
►
kids movie about a talking pig 95s babe
[TS]
00:04:56
◼
►
which yes it's about a talking pig it's
[TS]
00:05:00
◼
►
a kids movie but it is also quite simply
[TS]
00:05:02
◼
►
the the most heartfelt film children's
[TS]
00:05:04
◼
►
or otherwise that i have ever seen i
[TS]
00:05:07
◼
►
first saw that the theaters fresh out of
[TS]
00:05:09
◼
►
college pretty much at the zenith of my
[TS]
00:05:11
◼
►
bitter youthful cynicism and and over
[TS]
00:05:15
◼
►
the course of that 90 minutes babe
[TS]
00:05:16
◼
►
reduced me to wake grinning tear-stained
[TS]
00:05:20
◼
►
up with people type didn't take
[TS]
00:05:23
◼
►
obviously but it was a nice 90 minutes
[TS]
00:05:25
◼
►
it's and I seen it to a good dozen times
[TS]
00:05:29
◼
►
and and they're still I are at least
[TS]
00:05:31
◼
►
five scenes that make me weep openly on
[TS]
00:05:33
◼
►
every single viewing see i mentioned on
[TS]
00:05:34
◼
►
the kids move your podcast and John and
[TS]
00:05:36
◼
►
and lacks sort of didn't react but I
[TS]
00:05:38
◼
►
thought oh geez
[TS]
00:05:39
◼
►
is this a movie that everybody hates and
[TS]
00:05:40
◼
►
I don't know because i will i love it
[TS]
00:05:42
◼
►
unreservedly yeah i was shocked looking
[TS]
00:05:45
◼
►
up information that it only had like a
[TS]
00:05:48
◼
►
7.1 on IMDb which you know I just not
[TS]
00:05:51
◼
►
exactly the the best measure but it
[TS]
00:05:55
◼
►
surprised me a little bit that it was
[TS]
00:05:56
◼
►
that low because to me it's it may be
[TS]
00:05:58
◼
►
just the fact that it's it's viewed as
[TS]
00:06:00
◼
►
kind of treacly and and you know it's
[TS]
00:06:02
◼
►
funny I mean its just oh it's cool it's
[TS]
00:06:04
◼
►
not it's not really sappy it's it's it's
[TS]
00:06:06
◼
►
really funny but you know does have its
[TS]
00:06:08
◼
►
happy moments but they're not they're
[TS]
00:06:10
◼
►
certainly not to the fore and it is
[TS]
00:06:12
◼
►
another one of those where you've got
[TS]
00:06:13
◼
►
you know something that can be enjoyed
[TS]
00:06:14
◼
►
on multiple levels by people of
[TS]
00:06:16
◼
►
different ages i got a wacky talking
[TS]
00:06:17
◼
►
animals the walkie-talkies singing mice
[TS]
00:06:20
◼
►
you know the young kids love that and
[TS]
00:06:22
◼
►
then you know when you're you got kids
[TS]
00:06:23
◼
►
that are a little older they'll pick up
[TS]
00:06:24
◼
►
on the just the lovely message which is
[TS]
00:06:27
◼
►
basically just about prejudice and how
[TS]
00:06:29
◼
►
you know it can be no just basic decency
[TS]
00:06:32
◼
►
can defeat it largely and and the adults
[TS]
00:06:36
◼
►
will get even more out of that because
[TS]
00:06:37
◼
►
you know you've got great bits like the
[TS]
00:06:40
◼
►
narrator talking about the scene I guess
[TS]
00:06:43
◼
►
where I thinks fly the sheep dog is
[TS]
00:06:46
◼
►
trying to get the secret password from
[TS]
00:06:48
◼
►
the sheep and of course their natural
[TS]
00:06:49
◼
►
enemies and I think the narrator
[TS]
00:06:52
◼
►
announces that the dog decides to talk
[TS]
00:06:55
◼
►
extremely slowly because it's very well
[TS]
00:06:57
◼
►
known that sheep are stupid and then and
[TS]
00:07:00
◼
►
then when the Sheep respond he says the
[TS]
00:07:02
◼
►
Sheep choose to talk extremely slowly
[TS]
00:07:04
◼
►
because it's very well known that dogs
[TS]
00:07:06
◼
►
are ignorant brute
[TS]
00:07:07
◼
►
yeah yeah yeah yeah babes baby comes the
[TS]
00:07:10
◼
►
sheep pig a because babe actually cares
[TS]
00:07:13
◼
►
to talk to the sheep instead of just
[TS]
00:07:15
◼
►
yelling out of men and I embossing
[TS]
00:07:17
◼
►
around and that's that's how big he
[TS]
00:07:18
◼
►
doesn't know any better than two pitches
[TS]
00:07:20
◼
►
break stereotypes
[TS]
00:07:21
◼
►
alright so babe great movie love it
[TS]
00:07:25
◼
►
from the director and writer of Mad Max
[TS]
00:07:27
◼
►
by the way yeah yeah it's a it's a
[TS]
00:07:29
◼
►
strange movie because it almost
[TS]
00:07:30
◼
►
everybody in it is Australian and yet
[TS]
00:07:32
◼
►
they've made it sort of American and the
[TS]
00:07:34
◼
►
accents are weird and the setting a
[TS]
00:07:35
◼
►
strange and it's a weird it is it is
[TS]
00:07:38
◼
►
also that fairytale quality because it
[TS]
00:07:40
◼
►
is so in precise on where and when it is
[TS]
00:07:42
◼
►
it's a very slowly and it's it's I love
[TS]
00:07:44
◼
►
the direction to because everything kind
[TS]
00:07:46
◼
►
of this is just a little bit off-kilter
[TS]
00:07:48
◼
►
you know I mean it's it starts with of
[TS]
00:07:50
◼
►
course the farm that's basically from
[TS]
00:07:51
◼
►
you know a century ago it but it's in
[TS]
00:07:54
◼
►
modern times because the kids come at

00:07:56
◼
►
Christmas and bring a fax machine yeah

00:07:57
◼
►

◼
►

[TS]
00:08:48
◼
►
select the godfather part two as one of
[TS]
00:08:51
◼
►
the very rare sequels that can be argued
[TS]
00:08:54
◼
►
is equal to or better than the original
[TS]
00:08:57
◼
►
Empire Strikes Back of course being the
[TS]
00:08:58
◼
►
other one and very few other ones come
[TS]
00:09:00
◼
►
to monitor so true yeah that's a good
[TS]
00:09:03
◼

example to ah but only because the first
[TS]
00:09:05
◼
►
movie was so we're home yeah so this is
[TS]
00:09:08
◼
►
better than what was widely recognized
[TS]
00:09:10
◼
►
to be a great movie and it's strange
[TS]
00:09:12
◼
►
because the godlike status is such a
[TS]
00:09:14
◼
►
beautiful self contained movie you're

◼
►
cliffhanger really I and it in this was
[TS]
00:09:23
◼
►
before the age of of sequels to

that isn't the same age this valley grew
[TS]
00:10:31
◼

up in and that's highlighted by a
[TS]
00:10:34
◼

parallel flashback story showing his
[TS]
00:10:36
◼
►
father's rise to become the original
[TS]
00:10:38
◼
►
Godfather and the two it is basically
[TS]
00:10:40
◼
►
like two great movies and combined into
[TS]
00:10:42
◼
►
with Robert De Niro as the as the
[TS]
00:10:44
◼
►
Corleone coming up in the in the if you
[TS]
00:10:47
◼
►
want people play you because I would
[TS]
00:10:49
◼
►
like to near to play me when I'm you
[TS]
00:10:51
◼
►
and then Marlon Brando me before he's
[TS]
00:10:53
◼
►
really fat as the older one and then I
[TS]
00:10:55
◼
►
die so pretty good at it so my question
[TS]
00:10:59
◼
►
for you John the first time I saw the
[TS]
00:11:00
◼
►
godfather and i know this is
[TS]
00:11:01
◼
►
sacrilegious and I've seen it since
[TS]
00:11:03
◼
►
several times as the original movies but
[TS]
00:11:06
◼
►
the first time i saw it was actually the
[TS]
00:11:07
◼
►
complete epic which is where they
[TS]
00:11:10
◼
►
actually take the deniro portion of
[TS]
00:11:12
◼
►
godfather part two and run it first and
[TS]
00:11:15
◼
►
then they run though it who would to do
[TS]
00:11:17
◼
►
that Francis Ford Coppola that's not
[TS]
00:11:19
◼
►
right but should like that Mike has been
[TS]
00:11:21
◼
►
but it's interesting to view it that way
[TS]
00:11:22
◼
►
but it's it's the wrong way to do it
[TS]
00:11:24
◼
►
because that is the wrong way because
[TS]
00:11:25
◼
►
Jax translation or like yeah exactly
[TS]
00:11:27
◼
►
that's the whole second movie uh and so
[TS]
00:11:30
◼
►
and the second movie is one of another
[TS]
00:11:32
◼
►
rarity and the the the current age of
[TS]
00:11:35
◼
►
movies is that it's basically a tragedy
[TS]
00:11:37
◼
►
how often do you see a sort of
[TS]
00:11:40
◼
►
big-budget lots of stars very long epic
[TS]
00:11:42
◼
►
tragedy very rare unless it's like some
[TS]
00:11:44
◼
►
you know a historical drama where you
[TS]
00:11:47
◼
►
know it's got to end with something bad
[TS]
00:11:48
◼
►
happening or something structure to that
[TS]
00:11:53
◼
►
is yes there are many things that movie
[TS]
00:11:55
◼
►
over tragic but I don't know if you
[TS]
00:11:57
◼
►
would call the end of one
[TS]
00:11:58
◼
►
uh-huh did ya also you know has frozen
[TS]
00:12:02
◼
►
in carbonite but I'm starting three is
[TS]
00:12:04
◼
►
the real tragedy at the industry trends
[TS]
00:12:06
◼
►
that is you
[TS]
00:12:08
◼
►
yeah alright so you're gonna have a
[TS]
00:12:10
◼
►
little Godfather film festival here and
[TS]
00:12:12
◼
►
yeah the only other thing I'd add is
[TS]
00:12:13
◼
►
that the godfather to being the strange
[TS]
00:12:15
◼
►
thing where it's a sequel that it did
[TS]
00:12:17
◼
►
that stands up to its great predecessor
[TS]
00:12:19
◼
►
the gravity of godfather to sort of
[TS]
00:12:22
◼
►
sucks in Godfather one and that's why I
[TS]
00:12:24
◼
►
think these two movies start to become
[TS]
00:12:26
◼
►
started like orbit each other like
[TS]
00:12:27
◼
►
binary stars and I have a very difficult
[TS]
00:12:29
◼
►
time in any given day saying which one
[TS]
00:12:31
◼
►
of the two i think is a bedroom like
[TS]
00:12:34
◼
►
we're both grade they both win best
[TS]
00:12:37
◼
►
picture oscar i know there was nominated
[TS]
00:12:40
◼
►
for best picture I mean that i wasn't
[TS]
00:12:42
◼
►
born yet yeah there's no way to look at
[TS]
00:12:45
◼
►
information now Houston is now I know
[TS]
00:12:47
◼
►
how did need some sort of its that's
[TS]
00:12:49
◼
►
tough seeing seeing eyeball or still
[TS]
00:12:52
◼
►
thing alright Godfather and godfather
[TS]
00:12:53
◼
►
part two now and John's board and more
[TS]
00:12:56
◼
►
in your next I'm gonna pick what's
[TS]
00:13:00
◼
►
actually I second favorite movie
[TS]
00:13:03
◼
►
after empire which was so cruelly
[TS]
00:13:06
◼
►
snatched from my my clutches and that is
[TS]
00:13:09
◼
►
david lean's 1962 epic lawrence of
[TS]
00:13:12
◼
►
arabia which is a historical film but in
[TS]
00:13:18
◼
►
many ways not so historical since the
[TS]
00:13:22
◼
►
the actual mess of it is is Lou loudly
[TS]
00:13:25
◼
►
and largely disputed however that aside
[TS]
00:13:28
◼
►
it still makes a fantastic film and i
[TS]
00:13:32
◼
►
believe it is on record as the longest
[TS]
00:13:34
◼
►
film ever nominated and or at least
[TS]
00:13:37
◼
►
never won for best picture somebody made
[TS]
00:13:40
◼
►
reference earlier to a movie so long you
[TS]
00:13:41
◼
►
felt that you needed intermission
[TS]
00:13:43
◼
►
Lawrence of Arabia has an occasion
[TS]
00:13:45
◼
►
intermission indeed and it's it's up
[TS]
00:13:48
◼
►
it's a epic film on every scale and not
[TS]
00:13:51
◼
►
just the story but you know I remember
[TS]
00:13:53
◼
►
my parents taking me see it for the
[TS]
00:13:54
◼
►
first time in the brattle theatre here
[TS]
00:13:57
◼
►
in in cambridge and it's it's something
[TS]
00:14:02
◼
►
that really you know it's a little
[TS]
00:14:03
◼
►
easier now that you people have giant
[TS]
00:14:05
◼
►
tvs in their home but it's something
[TS]
00:14:06
◼
►
that deserves to be seen on a giant
[TS]
00:14:08
◼
►
screen because if nothing else some some
[TS]
00:14:11
◼
►
of the scenes are almost just impossible
[TS]
00:14:13
◼
►
to a you know comprehend on a small
[TS]
00:14:16
◼
►
screen i saw i saw 70-millimeter
[TS]
00:14:18
◼
►
restoration of this when it first came
[TS]
00:14:20
◼
►
out when I was in college and if
[TS]
00:14:21
◼
►
anything she's got killer that is the
[TS]
00:14:23
◼
►
way to see it because there are scenes i
[TS]
00:14:25
◼
►
think particularly the introduction of
[TS]
00:14:26
◼
►
Omar Charice keria sherif ali who
[TS]
00:14:29
◼
►
there's this scene where he's you know
[TS]
00:14:31
◼
►
in the desert of times you see it's a
[TS]
00:14:33
◼
►
little dot again starts a little dot and
[TS]
00:14:35
◼
►
they just let it ride out it's slow its
[TS]
00:14:37
◼
►
deliberate
[TS]
00:14:38
◼
►
it's just perfectly paced and time for
[TS]
00:14:42
◼
►
everything and as I as you know speaking
[TS]
00:14:44
◼
►
of Omar Sharif food who gives it gives a
[TS]
00:14:46
◼
►
awesome performance here the entire cast
[TS]
00:14:50
◼
►
you know despite the fact that they had
[TS]
00:14:52
◼
►
to largely turn to debate or they ended
[TS]
00:14:54
◼
►
up largely turning to non Middle Eastern
[TS]
00:14:56
◼
►
actors to portray a lot of these
[TS]
00:14:58
◼
►
characters such as alec guinness and
[TS]
00:15:00
◼
►
anthony quinn there's a fantastic cast
[TS]
00:15:03
◼
►
here with the oven all three of those
[TS]
00:15:05
◼
►
guys plus obviously peter o'toole in the
[TS]
00:15:07
◼
►
lead role in as a very complicated hero
[TS]
00:15:12
◼
►
and there's having seen that
[TS]
00:15:15
◼
►
in star wars before I saw this I i found
[TS]
00:15:18
◼
►
it funny to see Alec Guinness out in the
[TS]
00:15:19
◼
►
desert yes yes just that well yeah
[TS]
00:15:22
◼
►
that's where he doesn't so that he lives
[TS]
00:15:24
◼
►
there in the desert things out there in
[TS]
00:15:26
◼
►
robes in particular one scene that I
[TS]
00:15:28
◼
►
that that always jumps to mind is the 22
[TS]
00:15:32
◼
►
sort of launched a surprise attack on a
[TS]
00:15:35
◼
►
city that is otherwise well-defended
[TS]
00:15:36
◼
►
Lawrence insist they cross this really
[TS]
00:15:39
◼
►
in almost uncrossable desert and at
[TS]
00:15:42
◼
►
night which is the only time they can do
[TS]
00:15:44
◼
►
it and someone gets lost along the way
[TS]
00:15:48
◼
►
and he actually rides back to get them
[TS]
00:15:50
◼
►
before the Sun comes up and then later
[TS]
00:15:52
◼
►
on in the movie it is he is
[TS]
00:15:56
◼
►
yea he is in order to keep peace
[TS]
00:15:58
◼
►
Lawrence volunteers to kill someone who
[TS]
00:16:00
◼
►
has murdered another member of another
[TS]
00:16:02
◼
►
tribe for part of a blood feud and it
[TS]
00:16:04
◼
►
turns out to be the guy that he saved
[TS]
00:16:06
◼
►
yeah which is just a incredibly you know
[TS]
00:16:09
◼
►
devastating moment and really doesn't
[TS]
00:16:12
◼
►
want to shape this character and so it's
[TS]
00:16:13
◼
►
it's a fascinating portrait of a you
[TS]
00:16:16
◼
►
know whether you like him or not
[TS]
00:16:16
◼
►
whatever you think of them a great man
[TS]
00:16:19
◼
►
in the typically in the great man theory
[TS]
00:16:21
◼
►
of things and it's just it's it is well
[TS]
00:16:24
◼
►
worth watching the first half of it the
[TS]
00:16:26
◼
►
pre intermission half i would be in my
[TS]
00:16:29
◼
►
top three movies of all time
[TS]
00:16:31
◼
►
second half is I feel like more
[TS]
00:16:33
◼
►
problematic because that's sort of the
[TS]
00:16:35
◼
►
downward spiral of lawrence and it's
[TS]
00:16:37
◼
►
yeah it's it's more difficult in it and
[TS]
00:16:39
◼
►
it I don't like it as much but it is
[TS]
00:16:42
◼
►
it's not as uplifting but it'sit's yeah
[TS]
00:16:44
◼
►
it is i think that's to me that's what
[TS]
00:16:46
◼
►
makes it such a great movie is that it
[TS]
00:16:48
◼
►
is not just about all this guy's awesome
[TS]
00:16:50
◼
►
he's a hero and everything but like wow
[TS]
00:16:52
◼
►
that comes with some really serious
[TS]
00:16:53
◼
►
baggage she gets to Cairo and it's not
[TS]
00:16:56
◼
►
also yeah a great score by of maurice
[TS]
00:16:58
◼
►

00:17:22

playing off each other in this

00:17:25
◼

a very ridiculous story as as most

who mistakes and archaeologists for a

scorsese's goodfellas here when i saw it
[TS]
00:19:11
◼

was a revelation to one of my favorite
[TS]
00:19:13
◼
►
movies i would argue that it's better
[TS]
00:19:14
◼

than the Godfather only because I feel
[TS]
00:19:17
◼
►
as great as The Godfather movies are
[TS]
00:19:19
◼
►
better at what I like about goodfellas
[TS]
00:19:24
◼
►
it's it's a reaction in some ways to the
[TS]
00:19:26
◼

godfather and I'm not going to do three
[TS]
00:19:28
◼

hours about goodfellas somebody else
[TS]
00:19:29
◼

could do that but uh it's a great
[TS]
00:19:31
◼
►
reaction to the Godfather in that it is
[TS]
00:19:34
◼

messy and it's the kind of horrifying
[TS]
00:19:37
◼

aspect of the mob these are going
[TS]
00:19:39
◼

low-level mob guys and there's kind of
[TS]
00:19:40

horrific violence there's also this

it's like it's it Martin Scorsese in
[TS]
00:19:58
◼
►
this movie I mean he is a master
[TS]
00:20:00
◼
►
director at the peak of his powers
[TS]
00:20:03
◼
►
surrounded by cinematographers and and
[TS]
00:20:06
◼
►
film editors and actors who are all at
[TS]
00:20:08
◼
►
their peaks and you get this movie that
[TS]
00:20:10
◼
►
is very modern as it whereas the
[TS]
00:20:13
◼
►
godfather is very classically put
[TS]
00:20:15
◼
►
together and and the even the violence
[TS]
00:20:18
◼
►
in The Godfather is a gentler sort of
[TS]
00:20:21
◼
►
violence and the violence in goodfellas
[TS]
00:20:22
◼
►
brutal and i love that as a reaction to
[TS]
00:20:25
◼
►
kind of the the UH almost mythical
[TS]
00:20:28
◼
►
violence of n tail of the Godfather that
[TS]
00:20:31
◼
►
you get the flip side here and so what I
[TS]
00:20:33
◼
►
really yeah I say it's better but what
[TS]
00:20:35
◼
►
really what I do is I appreciate how
[TS]
00:20:37
◼
►
different it was from the Godfather and
[TS]
00:20:39
◼
►
and we went a long time without having
[TS]
00:20:41
◼
►
any mob movies that were really of that
[TS]
00:20:43
◼
►
standard and and goodfellas of that
[TS]
00:20:45
◼
►
standard and I have to admit the
[TS]
00:20:47
◼
►
violence is kind of hard to take and
[TS]
00:20:50
◼
►
what I appreciate about it when I was 20
[TS]
00:20:53
◼
►
years old it's actually harder for me to
[TS]
00:20:54
◼
►

00:23:58
◼
►
it's it's it's so influential I mean you
[TS]
00:24:00
◼
►
can see well first off the original Star
[TS]
00:24:02
◼
►
Trek series is just a totally a knockoff
[TS]
00:24:04
◼
►
of forbidden planet that mean they are
[TS]
00:24:06
◼
►
directly know is i am is basically

00:24:10
◼

[TS]
00:24:28
◼

anybody else's list but it it is the
[TS]
00:24:31
◼
►
great John Hughes film The Breakfast
[TS]
00:24:34
◼
►
oh great it's a film that I like so if
[TS]
00:24:36
◼
►
somewhat for its anthropological
[TS]
00:24:38
◼
►
interest because it is a great snapshot
[TS]
00:24:39
◼
►
of of teen life in the eighties although
[TS]
00:24:42
◼
►
i think much of it still applies i think
[TS]
00:24:44
◼
►
that the character archetypes haven't
[TS]
00:24:45
◼
►
really changed all that much
[TS]
00:24:47
◼
►
you probably won't find too many schools
[TS]
00:24:49
◼
►
anymore without fences and metal
[TS]
00:24:51
◼
►
detectors but mainly I think it's great
[TS]
00:24:54
◼
►
because it's it's the singular spot on
[TS]
00:24:57
◼
►
examination of the of the horrors of
[TS]
00:24:59
◼
►
being a high schooler and and probably
[TS]
00:25:02
◼
►
most accurate sympathetic depiction of
[TS]
00:25:04
◼
►
teenagers in film you know these are
[TS]
00:25:07
◼
►
reprobate sir precocious wiseasses just
[TS]
00:25:10
◼
►
generally good kids who were victims of
[TS]
00:25:12
◼
►
their parents or their coaches or their
[TS]
00:25:14
◼
►
own personal circumstances you know it's
[TS]
00:25:18
◼
►
it's very funny but it's it's also
[TS]
00:25:19
◼
►
frequently painful and as a teenager I
[TS]
00:25:23
◼
►
found it enormously enormously moving
[TS]
00:25:25
◼
►
still do today iÃm man enough to admit
[TS]
00:25:28
◼
►
that the story of Larry Lester's buns
[TS]
00:25:31
◼

make me tear up
[TS]
00:25:33
◼

being taped together yeah I i love that
[TS]
00:25:38
◼
►
we the audience start off just like the
[TS]
00:25:39
◼
►
kids now and we view him as their
[TS]
00:25:42
◼
►
stereotype and then our eyes are open
[TS]
00:25:43
◼
►
along with the characters is reassuring
[TS]
00:25:46
◼
►
as a youth to know that no matter how
[TS]
00:25:48
◼
►
angsty and misunderstood I was a geek
[TS]
00:25:51
◼
►
the job in the popular chick were

almost all the time and especially in
[TS]
00:26:43
◼

this case we've got part one which is
[TS]
00:26:45
◼
►
this you know
[TS]
00:26:46
◼
►
dramatic action movies only spy teams
[TS]

00:26:49

seeing one with data that sort of grainy

[TS]
00:27:01
◼
►
wouldn't have put on my list part two is
[TS]
00:27:03
◼

sort of the heart of this movie I don't
[TS]
00:27:05
◼
►
know what you would call part1 some
[TS]
00:27:07
◼
►
other part of the anatomy and it's
[TS]
00:27:09
◼
►
surprisingly it in part to like it
[TS]
00:27:12
◼
►
the dramatic scene at the end has a long
[TS]
00:27:15
◼
►
commentary on the nature of Superman
[TS]
00:27:17
◼
►
that is not played for laughs and if you
[TS]
00:27:20
◼

want a Quentin Tarantino like this the
[TS]
00:27:21
◼
►
royal with cheese scene isn't this funny
[TS]
00:27:23
◼
►
notes it like he plays this stuff
[TS]
00:27:25
◼

seriously the characters a series and by
[TS]
00:27:28
◼

[TS]
00:27:42
◼
►
people beat each other up and with
[TS]
00:27:43
◼
►
cartoon violence that's not what I come
[TS]
00:27:45
◼

before I just think they're as a unit
[TS]
00:27:48
◼
►
these two parts kept together into a
[TS]
00:27:49
◼
►
beautiful young yang and I also think
[TS]
00:27:51
◼
►
both these movies have the best use of
[TS]
00:27:53
◼
►
music in the movies with the possible
[TS]
00:27:56
◼
►
exception of good fellows which is an
[TS]
00:27:58
◼

amazing feat for what's supposed to just
[TS]
00:28:00
◼
►
be a you know a throwback kind of movie
[TS]
00:28:03
◼
►
that's supposed to be fun I think
[TS]
00:28:04
◼
►
there's so much more depth in this movie
[TS]
00:28:06
◼
►
then would appear from if you look at

00:28:09
◼

the whole cinema to cinematographic Lee

fantastic story and they made the movie

want to become a film editor for a
[TS]
00:44:02
◼
►
number of years and also applies to

00:44:06

Orson Welles is pseudo documentary f for

[TS]
00:44:21
◼
►
all-time favorite movies list right
[TS]
00:44:23
◼
►
underneath Empire and this is a
[TS]
00:44:26
◼
►
fantastic documentary that claims to be
[TS]
00:44:31
◼
►
about magic and about following
[TS]
00:44:35
◼
►
ironically following Clifford Irving
[TS]
00:44:37
◼
►
documenting a guy who
[TS]
00:44:40
◼
►
does forgeries art forgeries who sells
[TS]
00:44:43
◼
►
them for a for a nifty profit now the
[TS]
00:44:45
◼
►
thing to know is that if you know the
[TS]
00:44:47
◼
►
name Clifford Irving you'll know that he
[TS]
00:44:48
◼
►
did the fake biography of Howard Hughes
[TS]
00:44:51
◼

so it's fakery wrapped within fakery and
[TS]
00:44:56
◼
►
the entire thing despite having a really
[TS]
00:44:59
◼
►
really interesting story that kind of
[TS]
00:45:01
◼
►
twists and turns and pulls you in every
[TS]
00:45:03
◼
►
every angle and of course Orson Welles
[TS]
00:45:05
◼
►
is the master to do that in which to do
[TS]
00:45:08
◼
►
this I mean he put together war of the
[TS]
00:45:09
◼
►
worlds which basically everybody you

screening so people are reminded that it

acceptable in this movie and that
[TS]

he decides to kill himself and he does
[TS]
00:48:04
◼
►
that for a while and that fails to and

himself and and the the I know the
