This is when 26 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 2: I talk about movies that embarrassed me that I can't watch. 27 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: This is it. 28 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,479 Speaker 2: This is the epitome of like, oh my god, because 29 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 2: not because necessarily like it is. It is a lot 30 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 2: of like what's up, Oh no, but like embarrassing moments 31 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 2: that I know is gonna happen, and I feel bad 32 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 2: for them, even though you know they are triumphant in 33 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 2: the end, it's still embarrassing and I cringe and I 34 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 2: can't stand it and I have to walk away. 35 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: But yes, it's one of those movies I see. It's 36 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: funny to me because it was not at all what 37 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: I was expecting. Like I got the general plot. I 38 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: was pretty like, I'm sure they're going back to their reunion. 39 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: They're going to lie about it about what they've gotten 40 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: up to since then. But there was a lot of 41 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: stuff in there I was not expecting. Is very It's 42 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: kind of a strange movie. 43 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 2: It is the classic nineties when we had all those 44 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 2: high school movies that went awry, Like there were so 45 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 2: many of these movies that existed. We've talked about a few, 46 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 2: including like twelve Things I Hate about You, which was 47 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 2: a little later, but like in this kind of realm 48 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 2: of things. 49 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: Well, twelve things I Hate about you, you're adding two more, 50 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: I think, but I'd just added some things. 51 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 2: So things I Hate about you is one, and then 52 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: I think about Empire was a huge one. 53 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: Empire Records. 54 00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 2: It was one of those as well, Like I think 55 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 2: that's after high school though in college. 56 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: Anyway, moving on, Well, we're gonna get into it. But 57 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: I was like, so we've got kind of a fever 58 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: dream that happens. We've got a strange dance sequence. 59 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 2: I want to say Mina Servino wasn't actually a ballet dancer. 60 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised. Well, we've passed the window for spoilers, 61 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: but I suppose we have. If you have not seen this, 62 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: we have really teased some things that are going to 63 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: happen in our plot summary. Okay, So Romy and Michelle's 64 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: High School Reunion is a nineteen ninety seven comedy directed 65 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: by David Murkin and written by Robin Schiff with inspiration 66 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: from her play Ladies Room. It starred yes Mira Sorvino 67 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: as Romy and Lisa Kudro as Michelle and also stars 68 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: Janina Garuffalo and Alan Cumming. And when it came out 69 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: it was pretty successful, like monetarily and it was reviewed well, 70 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: but it has become a cult classic. I think it 71 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: played at the kind of local art theater near me recently. Yeah, 72 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: so it's got a fan base, a following, and I 73 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: can see why. I can see why. Also, Samantha and 74 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: I were discussing before the soundcheck is this very good? Really? 75 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: I mean it opens up with I'm just a girl. 76 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: Come on? Yeah, oh so good? So good? All right, 77 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna run through the plot here. The 78 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: film is presented in a non linear fashion, meaning we 79 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: have a lot of flashbacks. We are first introduced to 80 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: Romy and Michelle, the best friends from Tucson, Arizona. They 81 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: were best friends in high school and they are now 82 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: living together in La Romy runs into a classmate named 83 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: Heather played by Janine Garruffalo, who reminds her that their 84 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: ten year reunion has come up, and from there we 85 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: see flashbacks of their time at school where they were 86 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: close but bullied. They were not the A group, as 87 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: they call it, but instead we're picked on by the 88 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: A group. Romy had a crush on Billy, who was 89 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: the boyfriend of top mean girl Christy, while a nerd 90 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: named Sandy was played by Alan Cumming had a crush 91 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: on Michelle, and Heather had a crush on Sandy, so 92 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: yes got it mm hm. Anyway, at a dance, Romy 93 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: asked Billy to dance with her and he agreed as 94 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: a prank and then never showed up, so Romy and 95 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: Michelle danced together. They then come up with a plan 96 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: flashback over present day to show up at their reunion 97 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 1: with invented personas to make themselves look better. They kind 98 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: of have this realization that their lives aren't super impressive 99 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: when they're filling out a questionnaire, which, by the way, 100 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: I didn't go to my high school reunion, but there 101 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: definitely was no questionnaire involved me either. 102 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 2: I've been through several installations of reunions I was supposed 103 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,919 Speaker 2: to go to and I was like, no, never, no. 104 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: But I definitely didn't get anything but an email. 105 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: I think if I went to high school, I would 106 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: never go, even if I was successful, because the being 107 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 1: successful part is that you don't go. Yeah. But anyway, 108 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: I did not get a questionnaire. I think ours was 109 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: on Facebook. Facebook invite this. So this plan of theirs 110 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 1: to look quote successful involves finding boyfriends, losing weight, and 111 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: that Michelle needs to find a job because she doesn't 112 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,359 Speaker 1: have one currently. However, they realized that this is an 113 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: impossible task in two weeks to accomplish, so they decide 114 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: to pretend to be successful business women. Romy pretends to 115 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: have sex with an employee of the auto shop that 116 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: she works at to get access to a nice car, 117 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: and Michelle makes them some nice clothes. As you might imagine, 118 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: things do not go smoothly. They have to figure out 119 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: what business they are in, so they come up with 120 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: an idea that they invented post its, believing that no 121 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: one will be able to see through that lie. Like 122 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: everybody'll be like, oh, I know what that is, but 123 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: I don't know who invented it, So you can get 124 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: away with that lie. Through their creation of their fake lives, 125 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: they confront some of their issues with each other and 126 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: they get into a very big argument and decide to 127 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: split up in Tucson to not be with each other there. 128 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: Once they get there, Michelle has a dream where both 129 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: her and Romy claim to have invented post its. It's 130 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: not clear that it's a dream. At first, though, I 131 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: have to say I was very confused. Yeah, okay, yes, 132 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: it's just okay. A Romy in this dream got with 133 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: Billy and she in the dream, Michelle was interested in Sandy. 134 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: She got hit by a car randomly, and Sandy is 135 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: now successful in the dream. The dream continues with Romy 136 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: and Michelle cut off from each other for decades. Michelle 137 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: is trying to estavage their relationship, and then Romy dies, 138 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: giving her the finger of note. They are both very 139 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: successful in this dream. They get the guy, they win 140 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: the award, like you know, I don't know do they 141 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: give out awards at the high school reunions, but like 142 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: you're the best, they win those awards. 143 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 2: According to all the movies, they give at least one 144 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 2: award most successful or most changed so thus far. I mean, 145 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:50,079 Speaker 2: if you did you watch the reunion for the Liz 146 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 2: LEMAGEU thirty Rock. They gave her awards so they could 147 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 2: carry her. 148 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: I don't remember that. I know I watched it, That's 149 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: what I remember. Listeners right in Is this a thing? Yeah, 150 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: we've never been to an Orange? So are you telling 151 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: us never been? Tell us all about it? Sounds like 152 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: there's some interesting dynamics that happen there. But anyway, they 153 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: win the award. They drive away in nice cars, but 154 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: they don't have each other. So even though it's painted 155 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 1: as this very successful thing and the dream, it's still 156 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: sad because they don't have their friendship. And then we 157 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 1: cut to the real, non dream reunion. The A Group 158 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: are pregnant, Billy and Christy already have kids, two kids, 159 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: third one on the way. Michelle heads inside because Romy 160 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: left her sleeping in the car. Romy tells her posted 161 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: story to the A Group, but their classmate Heather corrects 162 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: her with the real name of the inventor and says, 163 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: you definitely did not invent the post it, so if 164 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: she is caught in the lie. Embarrassed, Romy flees and 165 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: she and Michelle make up, agreeing to be themselves. They 166 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: switch out of their business outfits that they were wearing 167 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: into their usual very colorful clothing. One of the A Group, 168 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: who has fallen out the rest of the group and 169 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 1: now works with Vogue, likes their outfits and basically it's 170 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: telling everybody like, nah, these outfits are cool. And then 171 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 1: Sandy shoves up in a helicopter, which is such a trope, 172 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: you know, you show up at the high school union 173 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: in a helicopter. That's a statement you're making, and asks 174 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 1: Michelle to dance with him, and she agrees if Romy 175 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 1: can dance with them too, and this is where the 176 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: dance scene comes in. Oh, Time after Time is playing. 177 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: It's quite something to see. Yeah, classic. Then Billy shows 178 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: up and comes on to Romy, but she stands him up. Basically, 179 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: she's like, oh, yeah, why don't you go wait in 180 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: the room and I'll be there in five minutes and 181 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,679 Speaker 1: then never goes, so heading back at him for what 182 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: he did to her all those years ago. By the way, 183 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: he is with Christy and like has kids yet. Anyway, 184 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: years later, Romy and Michelle have opened up a fashion 185 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: boutique in La supported by Sandy h and they seem 186 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: to be doing really well. They seem to be doing 187 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: really well. Heather shows up. Heather's there and it's trying 188 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 1: on a very bright, brightly colored dress when she had 189 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: kind of a golf look going previously. But yeah, all 190 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: as well, friendship healed. Heck, yeah, yes, it was quite 191 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: an interesting film, which I guess before we get into 192 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: the themes we are going to be talking about, like 193 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: weight and weight loss, and because it was pretty consistent 194 00:11:55,559 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: that nineties weight loss. Yeah, yeah, it's pretty bad. So 195 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: I did enjoy it. I thought it was funny. It 196 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: was not. It was bizarre. It was a lot of it. 197 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 1: I was like, what is this? 198 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 2: It's kind of like what a high schooler who isn't 199 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 2: from LA would think. 200 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: LA was yeah, and I couldn't. I was like, are 201 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: we making fun of these accents? What are we doing 202 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: with these accents? 203 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 2: So there's been a thing recently, and it's not just 204 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: Miras or Vino, which I think he's always had an 205 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 2: interesting way of talking. I can't remember because I just remember. 206 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 2: She wasn't my favorite actress. I love and respect who 207 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 2: she's become in the fight that she's had to have 208 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 2: in the industry, So I'm going to put that there. 209 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 2: But her acting was never my company, so it was 210 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 2: never something on like I must watch her Jenny Garoffalo 211 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 2: every day. I loved everything she did, including the truth 212 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: about cast and dogs with her and Uma Thurman. If 213 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 2: you've never seen it, you probably never have. And I 214 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 2: loved it because I loved dark haired certainly not beautiful 215 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 2: girls being main characters, and weirdly, Jenny Garoffalo ended up 216 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 2: being what like kind of the poster girl in that era, 217 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 2: one of the mini But I love loved Janninya Garofflo 218 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: that she was wonderful, so I would watch her and anything. 219 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 2: But with these access there's a thing that happens in Appalaysia. 220 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 2: There's a lot of things that happen in the South, 221 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 2: especially again Appalachian areas, where when they want to sound proper, 222 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 2: the O becomes oh, like there's this like tightening of 223 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 2: the lips to sound proper, and it becomes oh, And 224 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 2: that's kind of what mir Sorvino does. And I don't know, 225 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 2: and it may I think it may be a sexist 226 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 2: reason from way back when, and like women are not 227 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 2: supposed to have big mouths or wide mouths, so therefore 228 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 2: you made everything small and saying oh makes you look 229 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 2: goofy I guess because your mouth is too large or 230 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 2: I think fish mouth was one of the you know 231 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 2: what I mean, like the fishlans, so they would do 232 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 2: with them like pursing their lips instead of actually saying it. 233 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 2: And I wonder if that's what she was doing, does 234 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 2: sound proper? 235 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: That's interesting because I thought they were just trying to 236 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: do the kind of like Valley Girl, the peral is 237 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: that's that is not I thought they were trying to 238 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: do something. Whatever California Act. 239 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 2: Did make like they were putting on it looked like 240 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 2: they were being. 241 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: Caricaturist for sure. 242 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't know because like Lisa koudrou to 243 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 2: me played her character from Friends, mm hmmm, perfectly except 244 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 2: stylish according to but like it was an interesting look. 245 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 2: But the first thing I thought when I heard Mareservino's 246 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 2: accent was because I've been seeing as I'm watching like 247 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 2: things and i see people from the South doing this 248 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 2: that I'm like, why is this? I think because my parents, 249 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 2: my mother does this that oh thing that I'm very like. 250 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 1: Confused. 251 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 2: But anyway, that's a whole side note that I've been 252 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 2: dealing with, like. 253 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: Why are you talking like that? It is interesting? It 254 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: is interesting. Well, we do have a lot of side 255 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: notes like that, because there was some stuff that just 256 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: really stuck out to me. But I think one of 257 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: the big themes, obviously the biggest one is friendship, but 258 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: we're gonna save that one for the end. But one 259 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: of the big ones I thought was high school dynamics. Again, 260 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: as someone who's never been to a high school reunion. 261 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: I still even younger had that kind of idea of 262 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: you have to show up really successful, you gotta have 263 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: your story straight of like what you've been up to, 264 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: all of that stuff, and then you know, am I 265 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: gonna reconnect with friends. 266 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 2: Or not the love of your life from high school? 267 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: No? Yeah? But yeah yeah yeah yeah, or at least 268 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: make him jealous, right right, make him regret or her Yeah. 269 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: But yeah. Because we did get to see a lot 270 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: of that, I feel like we saw it more in 271 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: the flashbacks. It was apparent in the when they do 272 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: go to the reunion. I thought it was interesting kind 273 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: of the scene with Janine Garuffalo and Toby, another character 274 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: named Toby and Janine Gruffalo's character Heather was like, here 275 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 1: all this time, I didn't realize that a group was 276 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: hating on you. No one was like no one. Essentially, 277 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: I was hating on no one and they were like, no, 278 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: you were, you were there is some And Toby comes 279 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: up and she's like, you don't tell me to golf. 280 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, which, by the way, there's so many actors in 281 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 2: this movie that later become like either big or iconic 282 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 2: in some way, including Toby, who has become kind of 283 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 2: like a queer icon and later on in different shows 284 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,239 Speaker 2: and really kind of gotten bigger and who she is. 285 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 2: And then also justin the Row isn't there, And you 286 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 2: know he become a whole thing, which also made me connect. 287 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, Lisa. 288 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 2: Coudrow and he then the later Days dinner for inistan 289 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 2: in okay, what else?

She has has become 292 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 2: iconic as the parent trap mom.

And then the actress Kristen Bauer's in there, who 295 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 2: plays Pam and trewe Blood like she became kind of 296 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 2: a she became a cheer icon later on in shows 297 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 2: like that. Like you have some people in there that 298 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 2: were like, wait, that's so and so Ellan Cumming of course, 299 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 2: like he is an iconic in himself and playing this role. 300 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,919 Speaker 2: And yeah, all the other stars. But you have some 301 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 2: bigger names than you would have assumed in this small 302 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,119 Speaker 2: in this in this not small but in this nineties movies, 303 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 2: and I really do appreciate that. 304 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, there are a lot of people that I mean, 305 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: you've taken me on a whole journey. But there were 306 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: a lot of people that I was looking at. I 307 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: was like, I recognize you, but I'm not sure from where. 308 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, But there are a lot of people 309 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: that I've felt that way about. So back to our 310 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: high school dynamics conversation, Clearly there are clicks. You've got 311 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 1: the the a group. Who is this group of four girls, 312 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 1: like mean girls that kind of control the social hierarchy, 313 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 1: I guess, and then this whole idea of trying to 314 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,479 Speaker 1: fit in when you're happy. So one of my favorite 315 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: parts of this movie is at the end when after 316 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 1: Romey has been kind of embarrassed and humiliated and Michelle 317 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: is like, you know, until you told me, I didn't 318 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: know that we were having a bad time. I was 319 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 1: having a blast like that because I was with you, 320 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 1: I was having a great time. And so I really 321 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 1: liked that they when you see them together in these flashbacks, 322 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: like they were, you know, thick as thieves. They were 323 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 1: like best friends. And it was only until they got 324 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: that idea in their head of like seeking approval from 325 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: the wrong people of what success means that it kind 326 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 1: of diminished their relationship at least in Romy's mind. But 327 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 1: I really liked that line of like, you know, I 328 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 1: was having a blast. I didn't know, right, that was 329 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 1: the problem. Yeah, we were having great fun and they 330 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 1: like stuck up for each other. And it was interesting 331 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: to hear like Heather talk about them from her perspective 332 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: of like, you know, that's not what I saw at all. 333 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: So seeing those different dynamics and those different cliques and 334 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: stuff like that. There was also a big like focus 335 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: on women having kids' success, at least with the A group, 336 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: because they're all pregnant and Romi asked Christy like, what 337 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: do you do and she's like, I'm having my third kid, 338 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: Like that's that's the end all be all of what 339 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: success is. Which, again, if that's what you want's totally cool, 340 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,439 Speaker 1: But I think it was framed in a way that 341 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 1: was the reason she did it, is because for women, 342 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: that's how she viewed the only path towards success, right 343 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: whereas Michelle and Romi don't have kids, don't have boyfriends. 344 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: I really didn't enjoy the scenes of Romy trying to 345 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: get them boyfriends and doing a terrible job at it, 346 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 1: just terrible mm hmm. So there's all of that all 347 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,479 Speaker 1: of that going and then having the kind of like 348 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: the crushes. I'm very intrigued in what Sandy's relationship is 349 00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: with Michelle and or romy after this, right, I never says. 350 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: I was like, no, aren't they together? What happened here? 351 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: And I can't stress enough. When they start this dance, 352 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: Michelle and Romey are holding hands and he takes both 353 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,360 Speaker 1: of their hands and they do like a whole kind 354 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 1: of mating dance. So I'm not sure, but having that 355 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: crush and coming back and still having that crush, and 356 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: then yes for unions, Romy and Michelle have been together 357 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 1: this whole time, so to them, there's not like that 358 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: huge jump of I haven't seen this person in ten 359 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 1: years or whatever, but they do have that kind of 360 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: realization of we want to change in two weeks, which 361 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people can relate to. I 362 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 1: think like any dance, like. 363 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 2: A web diet is huge for a reason. 364 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: Yes, exactly exactly, So I feel like that's really relatable 365 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 1: of the Oh, I have this event coming up, and 366 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 1: I've gotta put on some real clothes and I've gotta yeah, 367 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: lose weight. But I also kind of like this could 368 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: be just for me but a lot of people wrote 369 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: in about requesting this movie, so probably not. But I 370 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 1: like how they were so happy with like they weren't 371 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: really dating and they weren't really like they were just 372 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 1: kind of happy with the life that they had. It 373 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 1: was nice. Yeah, you can just have a happy life 374 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,919 Speaker 1: with your friends and your life. I'm sure though some 375 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: people think Romey Michelle are more than friends, but you 376 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: know you, I'm sure some people do for some of 377 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 1: my random asides. The clothes. The clothes are very nineties, 378 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:52,639 Speaker 1: They're very bright. 379 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 2: Look some of us coming back have come back and 380 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:58,120 Speaker 2: keeps coming back. 381 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:03,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that I'm very confused. I know it makes me sad, 382 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: like I shouldn't have gotten rid of my I have 383 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: this one shirt that would be very popular right now. 384 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 1: I think it was just a mess. It was an 385 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:17,400 Speaker 1: absolute mess, but I loved it. I loved it. Yeah, 386 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 1: and they often did like complimentary colors like red and 387 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 1: yellow or pink and blue. I noticed that Michelle was 388 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 1: in the first scene. I think she was wearing like cherries, 389 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: very which we all know sexualized symbol. But yeah, the 390 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: very color, very colorful clothing is what I'll say carries 391 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: are sexual. Yeah, you pop your cherry. Oh lord, I don't. 392 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 2: Know if I carries to me are very childhood in 393 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 2: the like carrying in a basket and like just being 394 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 2: like cute, Okay, this is wilfar. 395 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 1: I'd pay attention. Moving on maybe future episode. 396 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 2: Maybe like I I am so bad, like after you 397 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 2: would like say it. Then I can imagine it be like, oh, okay, 398 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 2: that makes sense, but I don't initially put it together 399 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 2: to be like I don't know, you got dirty mind Andie, no. 400 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: There's no way that is what people say I get anyway. 401 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: It is one of the things they got in a 402 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: fight about was that Michelle, who was first seen wearing 403 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 1: the cherry earrings cherry colors, is the one that she 404 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: says she's cuter than Romy, She's much cuter, and then 405 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,640 Speaker 1: Romy says, essentially she's much smarter. I think, like, you 406 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: could never invent the post it, but I could. People 407 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 1: will believe that I could. So that's sort of where 408 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: their argument comes from. And then when they make up, 409 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 1: it's very sweet where they're like, oh, you totally could 410 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 1: have been minted the posted Oh you're totally cute, and 411 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: I shouldn't have said that. Yeah. Another thing, you know, 412 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: I've got to mention it. You know, I love it 413 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:12,640 Speaker 1: old tech knowledge. Yes. 414 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 2: The minute that a phone flip phone came out, I 415 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 2: was like, Andy's gonna have a field day. 416 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:22,199 Speaker 1: Yes, And I feel like wasn't the line. The line 417 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 1: was very funny. It was like, oh my god, it's 418 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: a flip phone. And then later when Romy is talking 419 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: to the a group and trying to repress them, she says, 420 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: out of nowhere, if anyone needs to make a call, 421 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 1: I've got a phone. It's the old flip phone. So 422 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: here's the thing. 423 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 2: In ninety seven ninety five, we had the car phones, 424 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 2: and people who had those phones legitimately were like the 425 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 2: cool kids. And I would say, or the spoiled kids. 426 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 2: Actually I saw them as the spoiled kids. It's the 427 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 2: same kids that got cars on their sixteenth birthday. And 428 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 2: I was like that definitely wasn't me. But like I 429 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:03,719 Speaker 2: had a good friend of mine she had a car 430 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 2: phone and we would use it to call people every 431 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 2: now and again, and then we'd get yelled at because. 432 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,439 Speaker 1: Here's a fee. Oh my gosh. 433 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 2: There, Yes, it's like a collector, like minutes you have 434 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,120 Speaker 2: minutes that it like adds up, like he needs long 435 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 2: distance call. 436 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: Think about that, Annie, I will, I'm kind of shook. 437 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,679 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think I had no, I didn't 438 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 2: have a cell phone until my sophomore year of college. Wow, 439 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 2: I am old, thank you very much. Moving on. But 440 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 2: like in this movie Zach from Saved by the Bell 441 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 2: having his giant portable phone, Yeah, it was a thing 442 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 2: we knew he was rich, California. 443 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: Kid, California kid. That did make me laugh though, that 444 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,880 Speaker 1: that really cracked me up. This whole flip phone the story. 445 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, she's love this part. I think 446 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 1: I immediately opened up the outline and wrote it down. 447 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: Had to, had to, Okay. So another theme, I would 448 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: say self perception, which is what we've kind of been 449 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: talking about. But like they were happy with the life 450 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 1: that they were leading until it became they were putting 451 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: on how other people perceived them of like oh, you 452 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: don't have a job, or you don't have boyfriends, or 453 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: you don't have a kid, whatever it is. And so 454 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: the resolution at the end is they decide to be 455 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: themselves and they change out of their business clothes and 456 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: they change into their colorful clothes and they're like together, 457 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: hand in hand, almost walking back in and kind of 458 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 1: dressing down Christie, the leader of the a group of like, 459 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: you know, you're mean, back off, right, that's a problem. Yeah, yeah, 460 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 1: And so having that moment of you know, I was happy. 461 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: I didn't need all of this external stuff to make 462 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: me doubt what I was doing or my friendship or 463 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: anything like that. One of the other things that stood 464 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 1: out to me is I think this was played comedically 465 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 1: in a way that didn't offend me, but I could 466 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: see how it could. But they're very ditzy characters. They're 467 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: both very they're blonde, ditsy characters where they're kind of 468 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 1: they miss a lot of cues. Like I said, I'm 469 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: pretty sure it was just kind of like a commie thing. 470 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: I wasn't really mad about it, but I could see 471 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: how some people might be. And you know, in the end, 472 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: they did get a successful business and they did figure 473 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: out what makes them happy. So but especially like kind 474 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: of that California aspect, I was wondering going back to 475 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: the accent and everything. But this brings us to the 476 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: weight loss. So this was the nineties. I do think 477 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: not infrequently about the when friends was really popular in 478 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: the nineties. There was an advertisement that had the three 479 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: women characters, including Lisa Kutro that said three anarexic chicks, 480 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: and that was the ad. So it was very at 481 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: the time, pretty normalized to have this kind of conversation 482 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: about women wings bodies because they keep in the movie 483 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: they must bring it up like ten to fifteen times, 484 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: need to lose weight. They're at the chubby chubby, chubby. Yeah, y, 485 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: you're so thin, They're so thin, this is yeah. 486 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 2: I remember watching this thinking if they have ordered the 487 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 2: losers In high school, like I remember specifically watching movies 488 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 2: like this where I would cringe because I was overweight. 489 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 2: I was I've always been a thick girl. I will 490 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 2: never be skinny.

And so like, I 494 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 2: just know when you see again. We've talked about this conversation, 495 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 2: and we've talked about the nineties specifically with like magazines 496 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 2: and that era, the skinny. 497 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 1: Girl era, that ideal that people like Lisa. 498 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 2: Kudro and Mira Sarvino were not cool, even though they 499 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 2: were stick figures with like bigger boobs and like all 500 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 2: these things and then having and then they're talking about 501 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 2: needing to lose weight, which whether or not, that's just 502 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 2: an image thing.

Type of conversation 508 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 2: that I remember that it left vivid things for my 509 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 2: own thing.

I'm just very disciplined, and 516 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 2: you're like, you mean, you starve yourself, you have a chef, 517 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 2: you're miserable, and you're probably taking medications to try to 518 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 2: take this and even possibly surgery, which is all in well, 519 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 2: and that. 520 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: You're doing that. 521 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 2: I hate that for you because I know you've got 522 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 2: to be miserable and it's unhealthy for you, and you 523 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 2: just need to be honest because these uh, these types 524 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 2: of conversations are really like it was. It was such 525 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 2: a harmful time. The amount of like eating disorders that 526 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 2: popped up and normalize was one of the worst. 527 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 1: I feel like it. 528 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 2: And then it's we've come back full circle, which makes 529 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 2: me really really sad with these new medications. But like 530 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 2: that was that time where you saw this and the 531 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 2: most skinny, beautiful people were being called ugly or not 532 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 2: the best type or whatever, and you're like, what even 533 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 2: the women who are pregnant, they were still thin as hell. 534 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and like I'm pretty sure they like bring 535 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: it up to run Romy's like, no, I have lost 536 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 1: five pounds, Like you shouldn't.

Didn't she? Somebody brought up Mono. I was like, 540 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get Mono to lose weight. 541 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 2: That was a big joke. The two thousands. I don't 542 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 2: know why, early early two thousands. 543 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, no, this whole thing it was very damaging. 544 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 1: I know I've told this story before. But one time 545 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: I used to watch when I was in middle school, 546 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,320 Speaker 1: I would watch Access Hollywood and they had a model 547 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,399 Speaker 1: on there once who I didn't even know, but she 548 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: she was saying like, I can eat whatever I want, 549 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: It's fine. And so I took that advice as, Oh, 550 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: I can eat whatever I want and it's fine. Obviously 551 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: that's not the case, and it was not. It was 552 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: damaging for me. But in this movie they do that thing, 553 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 1: the similar thing where they're eating like junk food, a 554 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: lot of junk food, at least Michelle is, and you 555 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:13,280 Speaker 1: know she's still super skinny, but it's painted as if like, oh, 556 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 1: she needs to stop eating the jump food and lose weight, 557 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: Whereas if I feel like most people, if you were 558 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: eating that jump you would have gained the weight. It's 559 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 1: just like misleading, right, especially when you're young, when you 560 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 1: don't understand like right genetics or celebrities or anything like that. 561 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 2: I mean, don't get me wrong, some people could just 562 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 2: can everything, but most of those people were all athletes 563 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 2: that were constantly. 564 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 1: Going yes, yes, yes. 565 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 2: There's some who also were trying to gain weight and couldn't, 566 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 2: and that was a whole different problem. 567 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, that whole. 568 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 2: Eating thing on the nineties era is really really alarming. 569 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 2: I will say I did appreciate that they didn't do 570 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 2: makeup on Mira Servena. They packed her, don't get me wrong, 571 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 2: to look chubby in the high school flashback, but at 572 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 2: least they didn't do the face makeup, because that always like, 573 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 2: that's just so insulting. 574 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and she wasn't. 575 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 2: So overweight, which was both a bad and a good 576 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 2: thing that they weren't trying to like again, caricaturist make 577 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 2: her look like fat Albert cartoonish level. But at the 578 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 2: same time, I'm like. 579 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 1: That's not that's not that fat. 580 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 2: Why don't Yeah, I don't understand what was epping. 581 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: Let her eat a hamburger, Yeah, let her eat her 582 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,919 Speaker 1: damn hamburger. And they looked exactly like the hamburgers from school. 583 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:35,360 Speaker 1: By the way. I looked at that, like you pretty 584 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 1: much weird. 585 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 2: Looking patty with little bubbles on it that I didn't understand. 586 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 1: Don't question me, don't question it. I'm gonna eat it. Yeah, 587 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 1: I mean that. I feel like a lot of times 588 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 1: when we do movies from around this era, this always 589 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: comes up. It was a really huge thing. 590 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 2: The ninety's eighties really up buddy in it. I guess 591 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 2: all of let's just be all of society in general. 592 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 2: But the less clothes that was being worn, the more 593 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 2: judgment it seemed, which is like, let us be for hot, 594 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 2: we don't want to wear sleeves. 595 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, let us be in general. I also have to 596 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 1: mention just because, as I said earlier, I do think 597 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 1: some people would put Romey and Michelle together. There was 598 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,239 Speaker 1: a line where Michelle was like, you want to have sex? 599 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 1: You know. 600 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,439 Speaker 2: I loved that it wasn't really like homophobic, Oh my god, 601 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 2: like she does say I don't like, I don't think whatever. 602 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 2: But then she's like, you know what that's making at 603 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 2: thirty just like such like a h okay, maybe who knows, 604 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 2: may change. 605 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 1: Let's see. Yeah. I liked that. It was just kind 606 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 1: of a hey, all right. But that does bring us 607 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 1: to the biggest theme, the final theme friendship. Yes, so 608 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: that is pretty much the heart of the movie is 609 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: their friendship. You get to see their memories together, you 610 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 1: get to see some of their the grudges that they 611 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 1: might have, and then the making up, and they make 612 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 1: up really quick. I mean, obviously it's an hour and 613 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: thirty minutes. But I liked how. I liked how Michelle, 614 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: Like Michelle was like, I don't want to waste time. 615 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,319 Speaker 1: I had this dream that you died. Actually, let's just 616 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: let's just make up. I don't want to I don't 617 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 1: want to be without you anymore. But it also reminded 618 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:44,760 Speaker 1: me of one of my best friends in high school, 619 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 1: middle school, elementary school, still one of my best friends. 620 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,960 Speaker 1: We were kind of like this wherein uh, people used 621 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 1: to joke we were Annie and Katie, like the names are 622 00:38:56,520 --> 00:39:00,360 Speaker 1: together because we were always together, and so we were 623 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: always doing things together. And like, I love how they were. 624 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:10,359 Speaker 1: So they were just like when Romy got stood up, 625 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 1: Michelle's like, I will dance with you. And then at 626 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 1: the end, Michelle gets asked to dance and she's like 627 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:17,839 Speaker 1: only if Romy can come. Like they were that type 628 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: of friendship where and people were asking Michelle when they 629 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 1: weren't together, like where's Romy. Like they had that association 630 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 1: of this is your person? Where's your person? Even ten 631 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:34,720 Speaker 1: years later, And so I really liked that. I really 632 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: liked that, and I did enjoy their strange dance sequence 633 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,359 Speaker 1: that I couldn't figure out, but I did like it. 634 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 1: I had a lot of questions. It's like interpretation okay, 635 00:39:55,840 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 1: interpretive dance, Okay, I got it. Okay, Well yeah, I 636 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 1: mean I did. I'm surprised, you know, I like a 637 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 1: good surprise. Yeah. 638 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:11,240 Speaker 2: The one thing I was disappointed in in that era 639 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:16,240 Speaker 2: is it like they had so many like trending exercising things, 640 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:21,799 Speaker 2: but no typo that kickboxing, but no typo that made 641 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 2: me sad. 642 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 1: I like, how that's what made you sad? And then 643 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,280 Speaker 1: itself was like, but where's the tibo? 644 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,040 Speaker 2: We need one good typo scene. 645 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:38,799 Speaker 1: That's true. Listeners, if you know a movie that has 646 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 1: a good typo scene, please let us know. It's probably 647 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 1: coming back. 648 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 2: Who knows, No, I think that again.
