Welcome to the show. Yes, welcome, 11 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 1: Um clap if you are a listener of the Bechtel Cast, 12 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: and uh yeah, is there anyone here who came with 13 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: a friend and who hasn't heard the show before? Okay, 14 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: we go one A shaking hand rose in the audience. 15 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: This is okay. So Caitlin and I when we go 16 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: to do live shows in various cities, we have so 17 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: far never done a movie that takes place in the city. 18 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: In fact, we always do movies that take place in 19 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 1: the absolute wrong city, and people are how you say, 20 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,559 Speaker 1: angry about this movie? We did? This did Princess Diaries 21 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: in New York. That's a movie about San Francisco. Correct, 22 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: we did in San Francisco. We did the Breakfast Club 23 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: takes place in a suburb of Chicago. I think the 24 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: easiest way to get us to do the correct movie 25 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: in the correct city is to put the name of 26 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: the city in the title, although we could have done 27 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: this movie be in New York. So it's Sleepless in Seattle. 28 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: Is the name of the mover doing my rond of applause? 29 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: Who has seen the movie? And? Uh? Which which Seattle? Light? 30 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: Is that? Right? That's fun to say, Uh which Seattle? 31 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: I is the holdout and has not seen Sleepless in Seattle. 32 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: We've got some edgeloords and the crawd I love it 33 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: when you think about it, Caitlin, and I feel like 34 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: I'm about to really polarize the audience. But when you 35 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: think about it canonically, is Seattle a spinoff of Boston? Um? 36 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: Because that's what I'm I don't mean like culturally, Jesus, 37 00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 1: I mean Frasier spun off Cheers, Seattle spun off Boston. 38 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: It's cannon. I see. That's just my hot take for 39 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: the evening. Well, I'm sure we'll talk about this. But 40 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: despite this movie taking place at least partly in Seattle, 41 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: this movie barely is about Seattle. Like it. She seems 42 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: to be mostly Sleepless in Baltimore in New York. Yeah, 43 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: shall we bring our guests, Yes, we should. Our guest 44 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: is awesome. She is a local Seattle comedian. She runs 45 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: a weekly show at this very space, the Rendezvous called 46 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: Comedy Nest, and she recently opened for Cameron Esposito. Give 47 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: it up for Andy. I want Ceo, I want CEO, 48 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: want I packed it up. I want Ceo. Lookome Hi 49 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: to be here. To make it very you actually have 50 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: to pass a test to begin speaking. I thought you 51 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: were gonna like ask to play the piano, kind of 52 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: Billy Joel's situation. Suddenly pianos wheeled up and you're we're 53 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: going to see if you're on the pod. Well, thank 54 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: you so much for being here. Tell us about your 55 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: history and your relationship with Sleepless in Seattle. Historically, I've 56 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: lived in Baltimore as well as Seattle, and this biopic 57 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: kind of it kind of works out if you think 58 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: about it as gender, but the other one. Anyway, I 59 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: worked on the harbor right where she like sulks on 60 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: a bench for most of the movie. Sure, romantically, it's 61 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: one of the postcard she stares, Wow, Okay. And then 62 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 1: I worked on a ferry that went around that harbor, 63 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 1: and so you'd give like a fake tour to people 64 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: to get tips. And so they had installed these lamp 65 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 1: posts that weren't really ever there, but they saw them 66 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: for the movie. Yeah, install them there in the movie. 67 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: You can see them. They look old timey and stuff. 68 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: When people have budgets, they just do like funked up 69 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: random things. Right now, when they were shooting the wire 70 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: in Baltimore actually had to install dilapidated houses because like 71 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: not all the neighborhoods had them, or like they created 72 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: bus stops. It was pretty hilarious. They did everything the 73 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: city couldn't do. But my partner pointed out that he 74 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: worked on the same ferry and then he was working 75 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: on some pirate ship that went around Seattle's harbor, and 76 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: then he realized he spent most of his summer meaning 77 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: out the house from Sleepless since Seattle. So he's really 78 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: got the connection. I I sleep next to him, so 79 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: that's like contacts. Yeah, that's the transitive reperty. Next to 80 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 1: someone who has the info, you also have the info. 81 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: That's how it works. We're both trans so we just 82 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: it just happens. Yeah, it's it's like a vulturoun of ambiguity. Well, 83 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: to bring up the fight Club episode, which we recently did, 84 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,559 Speaker 1: it's like Tyler knows this, so I know this. Yeah, 85 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: that's the same thing. When did you first see list? 86 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 1: I honestly seen bits and pieces of it at like 87 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: family gatherings for a long time. It wasn't until it 88 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: like really sat down to watch it a couple of 89 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: weeks ago that I really like sat through the whole thing. Yeah, 90 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: it was very interesting. You're not wrong, I have I 91 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: have no notes for I had never seen it. Um. Sorry, 92 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: I can feel myself getting sick currently. That's my fault. 93 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: And also I'm better. Oh no, I had never seen 94 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: this movie before until like a week ago when we 95 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: started prepping for this tour. Yeah, it just it's not 96 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: the type of movie that I would ever seek out. 97 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: Our friend Katherine, I know. I'm so sorry. Our friend Catherine, 98 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: who I watch a lot of movies with, had been 99 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: trying to get me to watch this movie for like 100 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: a year, and meanwhile I was like making her watch 101 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: Paddington and stuff, and I kept refusing, but I did 102 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: often posit theories as to what the movie might be about. 103 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: UM So I was like, Yeah, it's about how Meg 104 00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: Ryan owns a bookstore in Seattle and Tom Hanks Ellen's 105 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: a bigger bookstore called Amazon, and and they are fighting 106 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: about it, but then they start emailing and they're falling 107 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: in love over email. Well I know that now because 108 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: I had also never seen You've Got Mail, and Catherine 109 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: was always trying to get me to watch that, but 110 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: they called You've Got Email. That's my only note for 111 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: that movie. Otherwise, perfect piece of feminist text. What's your 112 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: history with Sleepless in Seattle? Um? I kept sort of 113 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: came to this movie in a in a bizarre reverse way. 114 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 1: I before I saw any of Nora Fron's movies. I 115 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,599 Speaker 1: saw the documentary about her That Everything Is Copied documentary, 116 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: which was really good, and she's like a fascinating figure 117 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: with some serious blind spots. But I first like became 118 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: interested in Nora Fron and then went back maybe about 119 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: a year or two ago, and like started watching back 120 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: all of her movies. We did when Harry met Sally 121 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: on the podcast. I had to watch it then, and 122 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: I watched sleep List in Seattle for the first time, 123 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: maybe a year or two ago, and I was like, oh, no, 124 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 1: you know, because I very much love Nora Fron and 125 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: yet this movie Oh no, you know, yeah, so you 126 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 1: know it was It was weird because it was like 127 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: like falling in love with an artist and then two 128 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 1: days later being like, what have you done to me? 129 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: It was a real fling I had with Nora f Bron, 130 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: and she let me down almost immediately. Sorry, it's okay, 131 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: you know she's dead son in power. So I showed 132 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: her I'm alive. Oh okay, that's one way to look 133 00:09:55,080 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: at her. Okay. So oh yeah, this is now the 134 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: roast of Nora Affront. Is this a normal part of 135 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: the show where you say whether or not you've beaten somebody. No, 136 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: But it's now a part of the show where I 137 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: roast everyone who can't roast me back because I'm a coward. 138 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: I'm still somewhat of a Nora Affront stand and I like, 139 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: I like a lot of what she represents, and she 140 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: did pave a lot of paths for future female writers 141 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: and filmmakers, and I don't want to disk. I mean, 142 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: I have a whole thing, but I love Nora upfront. 143 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: This movie is yikes. Yes, well let's jump in with 144 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: the recap. Okay, So this movie starts out basically the 145 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: same exact way that the movie The Rock starts out, 146 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: because it's Tom Hanks staring at a gravestone that might 147 00:10:53,640 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: as well say his wife Key has just died. And 148 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: he's more much like The Rock when Ed Harris, he's 149 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: sort of yelling at the grave. Yeah, why do these 150 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: men yell at the gravestones of their recently diseased and 151 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: Edwards this case, it's raining heavily, so he's yelling through 152 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: the weather to the grave. This is where you can 153 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 1: start the drinking game of like if you take a 154 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: shot every time you see something famous that should be 155 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: on a postcard. Like the entire movie is just shots 156 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: of stuff. Even Chicago seems to raise up like it's 157 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: trying to check out what's happening. The buildings come up 158 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: over the hill like wood go Away, sis right, the 159 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: movie having a moment here there's this weird reveal that 160 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 1: doesn't need to happen where it seems like they're in 161 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: like just a grassy, rural grave yard, and then there's 162 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: like a tilt that's like, wait a minute, they're near city, 163 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: and it's like, who, people in cities aren't supposed to die. 164 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: They were like, wait a second, so in this universe 165 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: people who live in cities die. It's almost like, well, 166 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: there's two ways we can do it. We could just 167 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: put Chicago at the bone of the screen. No, that's 168 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: not good enough. It needs to t open the entire 169 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: skyline here, like a musical number from Chicago, a full 170 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: on Dutch ankle. Uh. They do introduce it basically, like 171 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: Tom Hanks is like, so, Torecap, my wife is dead 172 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: and and the kids like why and he's like that 173 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 1: just happens sometimes. And the kids like, oh, thank you, 174 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: And that's the first thing. Yes, why are they yelling? 175 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, but Tom Hanks spends almost the rest 176 00:12:55,040 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: of the movie yelling still he's an America sweetheart, are 177 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: really fucking creepy and mean in this movie. So he 178 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: is his wife has just died of cancer, and he 179 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: is heartbroken because they were very much in love. Yeah, 180 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: and he decides that he needs a change of scenery 181 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 1: because everything in Chicago reminds him of his wife, and 182 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: again it's another famous part of Chicago. It's them going 183 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: into Wriggley Stadium. It's just another postcard that Oprah is 184 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: throwing a pitch, like why is this happening? So he 185 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 1: takes his young son, Jonah, and they moved to Seattle. 186 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: I ever heard of it. The cast member of Fraser 187 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: in this movie lives in Baltimore, which is But then 188 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: here's my theory. They heard David Hyde Pierce say utter 189 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: the words Seattle and they're like, now, hold on a second. 190 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: We've got to get this guy in a Seattle based 191 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: piece of media, and that's why he won all those Emmy's. Yeah, 192 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: good theory, thank you. Okay. So we cut to eighteen 193 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: months later, we are in Baltimore. We meet Annie, that's 194 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 1: Meg Ryan's character. Also Tom Hanks is His character's name 195 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: is Sam, so probably going to call him Tom Hanks. 196 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: So Annie ak Meg Ryan has just gotten engaged to Walter. 197 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: That's built maman. But he is a dweeb who is 198 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 1: allergic to everything, so we don't like him. We give 199 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: we can get into this Nora Fron school of man 200 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: who is addicted to you and faithful to you above 201 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: all others. Yet he has an allergy is repulsive. Oh no, 202 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: he's into a roma therapy. Dear Lord, our bedroom is 203 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: so moist at night, at comfortable, it smells like lavender. 204 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: I need to divorce this man, this sexy man who 205 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: doesn't care when I'm essentially cheating on him. She is 206 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: driving in her car and she's flipping through the radio 207 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: and she hears a kid she's yelling. She's yelling at 208 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: the radio. Oh true, Yeah, She's like, better change the channel, Like, 209 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: what is who's the sound guy on this There's no 210 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: rhythm in this movie. If you watch The Christmas Care 211 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: because I was literally watching it before it came here, 212 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: and she does not sound like she's ever saying a 213 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: Christmas carol before. She's like ging tone deaf Meg Ryan, Well, 214 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: she's if she's yelling at radio, she's kind of like us, 215 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: like we're always, you know, criticizing media. So she sucks 216 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: in this movie though, and we're cool good yeah. Yeah. 217 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: So she's driving in a car, she is listening to 218 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: the radio and she here's a kid call into a 219 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: radio show. This kid being Jonah Sam's son, and he 220 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: speaks with Dr Marcia who's like an advice radio host person, 221 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: and he's like, my Christmas wish is for my dad 222 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: to have a new his wife wife. So then Jonah 223 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: puts his dad on the phone and they talked to 224 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: Dr Marcia about his wife. Yeah. But then also like 225 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: Tom Hanks is back and forth in this movie, and 226 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: like he's either very endearing on the radio or yelling 227 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: at his son on the radio, which is like read 228 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: the room, dumbass, Like why are you yelling at your 229 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: son on national radio. It doesn't stop like two thousand 230 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,080 Speaker 1: women from being like he seems like the greatest I 231 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 1: in the world. I mean, speaks to their judgment of character, 232 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: because Jesus Christ, he's yelling at his son the whole 233 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get your David. He's so dreamy. So he's 234 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: talking to the lady and he's like, I can't sleep 235 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: at night. I am sleepless. I live in Seattle. And 236 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:27,400 Speaker 1: that's where we get the Dr Marcia. Annie, who is listening, 237 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: is like, Wow, this guy seems nice. She's like she 238 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: as wrecks her car. She says like three or four 239 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: words at the same time as him, and she thinks 240 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: he's kids met like this whole movie is like, is 241 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,199 Speaker 1: love connected to the power of coincidence? And that is 242 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: I'm just like, no, it's it's much in the same 243 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 1: way that like, it's the least common denominator of things 244 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,959 Speaker 1: happening in the world. It's like if you pick up 245 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: a paper clip and you think somewhere else in the world, 246 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,120 Speaker 1: somebody's picking up a paper clip, and I'm like, I'm 247 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:11,399 Speaker 1: supposed to be with that person. It's just such a 248 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: low bar for connection in the world. It's like Magrin, 249 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 1: if you want to break up with Bill Palman, many 250 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: people would be honored to have him, So just break 251 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: up with him, not go through this insane Oh god, 252 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: I can't wait to apply the bush Em test to 253 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: this movie. Although in this case it's a female character, 254 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 1: I's gonna call it the Stevia. Stevie is still a 255 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: woman's name, so you could be this. It's going to 256 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: be the Stevie Stevia because it's a what is it. 257 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: It's a sugar substitute. Okay, I don't know, I might 258 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,640 Speaker 1: be poisoned. Who knows. So she's like, yeah, this guy 259 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: seems great, and then she goes into a diner and 260 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: they're all like Wow, he seems right. And then there 261 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 1: are like many women calling into the radio show and 262 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: they're like, wow, he seems great. And then she gets 263 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: very emotionally invested in this story his story, which is 264 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: not interesting. It's like pretty normal. He's yeah, he's a 265 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: grieving husband who is not dealing with it well via 266 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 1: screaming at his son all the time, So not inspiring, 267 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 1: actually quite sad, and someone should call and be like, 268 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: should be checking on the sun. Like right, I feel 269 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 1: like if you play the movie Big before this, it 270 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: feels like a weird sequel. Love this theory. And then like, 271 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: except for the Zoltar things kind of like make sure 272 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: my dad meet someone else they can kiss. This is 273 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: a perfect fan theory. And she's a she's one of 274 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: mcgriyan has one of the only jobs women are lawed 275 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: to have in this genre, which is journalist. So she 276 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 1: goes to work with her friend and colleague, Becky played 277 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: by Rosie o'donnald, and everyone's like, you should turn this 278 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,199 Speaker 1: into a story. This is interesting. There's nothing happening in 279 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 1: Baltimore right now. So she's like, yeah, this guy seems great. 280 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 1: I'm going to write a story about him, and then meanwhile, 281 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: Sam gets a bunch of letters from horny women who 282 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 1: have heard his story and want to be his wife, 283 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: and he's not interested in any of them. So then 284 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: Annie goes to her brother Nile Crane a k a. 285 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 1: David Hyde Peers. There's not really much to talk about 286 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: Niles's character, so I'll just say here this character's office 287 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: that she goes into at some point, what is his job? 288 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: Because there's so many wild pis in his office while 289 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 1: he's like love is a construct, but he there's an 290 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: oversized typewriter. What says there? There's just a piano and 291 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: a harp. There's a large harp, There's there's a grandma phone. 292 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: Like I mean that most of the time, when you 293 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: have David Hyde Pierce in a movie or TV show, 294 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: you just want him flustered in front of antiques, and 295 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,199 Speaker 1: this movie delivers on every level. David Hyde Pierce is 296 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: in just a room full of Central Casting antiques, and 297 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: he's all like, I'm having these fantasies about this guy 298 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: who lives in Seattle who I've never met. I'm like 299 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: questioning whether or not I want to marry Bill Pullman, 300 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,360 Speaker 1: and Niles is just like, do whatever you want love 301 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: is a lie and she's like, Okay, you're right, I 302 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: just have cold feet and I'm gonna move on. But 303 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: the fact that he's like love is a lie and 304 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:52,120 Speaker 1: she's like, Okay, I will get married. Like. Meanwhile, Sam 305 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: is talking to his friend I think his name is 306 00:21:55,600 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: Jay Rob Reiner, and Rob Reiner is encouraging him him 307 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: to like get back out into the dating.

Meanwhile, this 314 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: is where it gets really fun. Annie starts to cyberstock 315 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: and then really stock Sam, which is ten times it's 316 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 1: hard to do in the sere stalking a special a 317 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: lot of large hardware. So I will say there's more 318 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 1: female hacking in this movie. In the nineties. There is 319 00:22:55,720 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: nobody says I'm in which I was going to say, 320 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: representation wise is piss poor for the hackers. She needs 321 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: to say she dares well she's in, is she not? 322 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: That's a consent thing. You gotta say it. First of all, 323 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: Hacker should have designy to computers. May I enter, and 324 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: if the computer enthusiastically consents, they can say I'm in. Well, 325 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: it acted like it was like print yes or her factors. 326 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: I think we've all we've all met somebody off a 327 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: Craigslist and gone, what's your factors? So Annie is like, 328 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 1: I can't get this guy out of my mind, and 329 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: she writes him a letter to both Sam and Jonah 330 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: and she's like, hey, let's meet on Valentine's Day in 331 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 1: New York City at the Empire's Day Building. On the 332 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 1: top of it, she proposes the third act of the 333 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 1: movie Yes, And then Jonah reads a letter and he's like, wow, 334 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 1: I really like the sound of her. But Sam is like, 335 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: but Rosie o'donald sends it. Meg Ryan's like, right, because 336 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: it's scary. Right, we've all written a scary letter and 337 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:23,360 Speaker 1: then not sent it. That's relatable. I've done that many times. 338 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 1: That's the whole premise of To All the Boys I've 339 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: Loved Before. Everyone's written a scary letter and then read 340 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 1: it back and then been like, hold on, have I 341 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: become a person I hate. But Rosie o'donald sends Rosio 342 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: donald sends it, and then Sam reads it, but he 343 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: dismisses her as a romantic option because she lives in 344 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,919 Speaker 1: Baltimore and it's too far away from Seattle. Out of 345 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: all the many examples there are to reject her as 346 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: a romantic option in that letter, he chooses distance. Well, 347 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,479 Speaker 1: he doesn't know that she is stalking him, which she 348 00:24:56,800 --> 00:25:00,479 Speaker 1: starts to really double down on because first of all, 349 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: she hires a detective, very unsubtle detective, yeah, to like 350 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: take photos of him and like spy on him on 351 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 1: his date with Victoria. So Sam starts dating Victoria, which 352 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 1: upsets Jonah because he's all about your new his wife 353 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: should be Annie, this random lady who I read a 354 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:24,360 Speaker 1: terrifying letter from, like says, oh my god. Oh but 355 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: and and also the reason we're not supposed to like 356 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: Victoria is because she laughs. Yeah, she has a sense 357 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 1: of humor. She is too expressive, and Jonah likes his 358 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: mother's silent and meg Ryan Again, when you see the 359 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,239 Speaker 1: private detective like lean over the balcony at them, and 360 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:53,719 Speaker 1: he's like zooming in the cameras so loud it sounds 361 00:25:53,760 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 1: like a car back ago. It's like and also that 362 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 1: shot zooming in. Tom Hanks is acting wild on this 363 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: first day. He's like moving his head around. It's like, 364 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: what are you talking about? And then he feeds her, 365 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: which you're like, okay, okay, setting a weird president for 366 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: this relationship. Everything about that reads like a child in 367 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:27,640 Speaker 1: a man's body. Yes, right, he wouldn't know a grown woman. Yeah, 368 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: this is this is a good theory. If someone tried 369 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: to fade me on a first date, I would commit 370 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: arson be very upset. So meanwhile, Annie is like, well, 371 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: if I'm going to write this story that I think 372 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:46,400 Speaker 1: is interesting, I better go to Seattle. So she this 373 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: is funding from work, I guess. And then she's getting 374 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: off her plane at the airport, just as coincidentally, Sam 375 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: is seeing off Victoria for a trip that she's going on. 376 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: And so Sam sees Annie and he's like, hubba, hubba, 377 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 1: who is that? And then Annie proceeds to follow him 378 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,360 Speaker 1: to the beach, follow him to another beach, spy on him, 379 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: lurk around standing house. She has found out his address. 380 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 1: She goes to his house and then sees him like 381 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,199 Speaker 1: playing with his son, and then she's like, what a 382 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: nice guy. I love him. She's too far away to 383 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: see that Tom Hanks is probably yelling at that's what's 384 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: making the boat show. And then they do come face 385 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: to face and they say hello to each other, but 386 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: she has just seen him be really excited to see 387 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 1: his friends. Susie played by Rita Wilson, Tom Hanks's real 388 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 1: life his wife and then his sister and not no, 389 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: I'm not saying his wife is his sister. Oh my god. 390 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: Isn't Susy supposed to be his sister or maybe his friends. 391 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: I think he's supposed to be sister. I didn't realize that, 392 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: and that's why it's like double ridiculous. And it's like 393 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: you thought his sister was his wife. But but it 394 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: also like he does hug her like it's his wife, yes, 395 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 1: and that's why Annie is confused. So she's like, oh, man, 396 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 1: he's got a girlfriend. I'm just gonna go back to 397 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: Baltimore and forget all about this Sleepless in Seattle. But 398 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: then Jonah buys a flight to New York with the 399 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 1: help of tiny Gabby Hoffman, and he goes to the 400 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: Empire State Building to look for Annie and like waits around, 401 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: and then Sam realizes that his son is missing because 402 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: he's a bad father and he does not keepings like 403 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: I'm yelling and no one is crying. He is my son. 404 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 1: This is how I find out if my son's homes. 405 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 1: You let me down. That's sun sonar. So he goes 406 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: chasing after him, goes to New York City. Meanwhile, Annie 407 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 1: and Walter are having like Valentine's dinner and she's just like, 408 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 1: we gotta break up because you have allergies and and 409 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 1: he's like okay, he's so chill about so he takes it. 410 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, what is going on with Bill Palm? It's 411 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: his allergy medication. It's affecting his emotional response. So then 412 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: she goes to the Empire State Building and then Sam 413 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: is arriving there around the same time to get Jonah, 414 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 1: but they like just miss each other. But wait, Jonah 415 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: left his backpack, so he and Sam go back and 416 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: then they see Annie rand M lady who could be anyone, 417 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: but they're like, are you Annie, and she's like yeah, 418 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: So then they hold hands and are in love, and 419 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 1: then there's a bad c g I shot of the 420 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 1: Empire staple day, it's so bad, it's really funny. And 421 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: then we're like, and that is sleepless in Seattle. It 422 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: ends in New York. Why couldn't they have chosen a 423 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: building in Seattle is a good question. Yea, the space Needle. Realistically, 424 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: this movie would have ended with Jonah being kidnapped and 425 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: Tom Hanks living out the rest of his days wishing 426 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: he hadn't yelled at his son so much. This was 427 00:30:53,440 --> 00:31:04,959 Speaker 1: more of a take into the situation than anything. But okay, 428 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: so here's the thing with this movie. It's an all 429 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: female reboot of The Stalking Trip. I think it's great. Yes, 430 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 1: it feels like a pretty standard you know, nineties rom com, 431 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 1: you know, upon first glance, but with with a few exceptions. 432 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: Which is that unlike a lot of movies where a 433 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: woman feels like she needs a man to feel complete 434 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: or other people are telling her that she needs a 435 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: man to be complete, this right, well, this movie is 436 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: about a boy telling a man that he needs a wife. 437 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: So that's like sort of a subversion of I mean, 438 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: in in in Jona's case, it's a cry for help 439 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: because he's like, my dad, can we get anyone else 440 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: in this house? Like that? Used to me what he's asking, 441 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: did y'all have his much fun with how that kid 442 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: is like his roommate and every Nora f from maybe 443 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: one of the Nora Front troupes that is so annoying 444 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: and it's like just a little wise child trope. I'm 445 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: so am like this kid would be sneezing on things, 446 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 1: he would be sticky, right. There are a number of 447 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 1: scenes where he's like, yeah, women scratch up men's backs 448 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: during sex. I've seen it on cable and then and 449 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: the message of that is like, whoa Nora f Fron 450 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: just roasted cable? You're like And then Tom Hanks is 451 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: like mumbling to himself and he's like, I've fun six, no, 452 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,959 Speaker 1: seven women in college and then he sees it as 453 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: Sanders right there and he's like, how long have you 454 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: been there? And he's like, I've heard you had sex 455 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: with seven women and he's like it was eight. Actually 456 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: I remembered another one. So you screaming about all the 457 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 1: women's college. Also, he has that a whole storyline is like, son, 458 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 1: get out of my way so I can fuck someone. 459 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: He's so annoyed with his son. He's like son, it's 460 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: almost like he could set up boundary. He makes no effort. Yeah, 461 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: I mean to like, there's nothing good about this movie, 462 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: but also there's everything good about this So it's it's confusing, 463 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: but that it's like, we do get to see a 464 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: male character grieve to some extent. The way he grieves 465 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: is very toxic and mostly by yelling at his son um. 466 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 1: There is at least a grieving narrative. I feel like 467 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: a lot of the time men are not like part 468 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: of word to believe the reason that women are attracted 469 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: to him is because he is grieving his wife at all. Yeah, 470 00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: Like she's like, oh, I've got to be with him. 471 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 1: If I eyed, he'd be piste. So the real big subversion, 472 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 1: the actual huge subversion of this movie when it comes 473 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: to like, you know, the romcom genre, is that it's 474 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: the woman stalking the man this time, which we've painted 475 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: at already. But do not stalk, Just do not unless 476 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: it's just on Instagram on a fake account that you 477 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 1: have and then stuck away. Baby sixty seven. I just 478 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,880 Speaker 1: made like a quick list of all the things that 479 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: she does. She calls around to figure out how to 480 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 1: get in touch with the radio show. Then she calls 481 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 1: the radio show to get his phone number. She calls 482 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: his phone number, it gets his last name, does a 483 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 1: very old Google search slash like hacker thing to search 484 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 1: for him, figures out that he's an architect because computer 485 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: it right, and then hires someone to do the background 486 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,720 Speaker 1: check and to take photos of him. Then she flies 487 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:10,439 Speaker 1: to Seattle, shows up at his house. He's not there. 488 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: She follows him on his boat, lurks around nearby, you know, 489 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 1: watches him a day passes, does the exact same thing 490 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 1: where she follows him on a boat. So what I'm 491 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: hearing is she has a lot of agency, so it's 492 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 1: very independent. She's a very aspective character. Yeah, and and 493 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: and the subtext to why women are lusting after Tom Hanks, 494 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,399 Speaker 1: a man who is truly doing the bare minimum of 495 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 1: grieving his wife, is that women. I mean, there's this 496 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: whole sub text to this movie that women would do 497 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: anything to be shown genuine love from a man. Because 498 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 1: it's like we see even though Meg Ryan's character is 499 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: receiving that for most of the movie, and then she's like, nah, 500 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:14,759 Speaker 1: I want a man, I know, yells at his son. Right. 501 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: The idea is that like all women, no matter what 502 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 1: their circumstances are are just like desperate and like horny 503 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 1: and just like need a man that they'll like send 504 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: letters to a man they've never met. Something that has 505 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: brought up a lot in this movie, and I wanted 506 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 1: to give some hot context for us, is there is 507 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:41,320 Speaker 1: a statistic that has cited several points in this movie, 508 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,399 Speaker 1: uh saying that you know, it's easier to get killed 509 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:48,359 Speaker 1: by a terrorist and get married after forty So does 510 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:53,439 Speaker 1: anyone know the backstory for this? Oh? Mensa? All right? 511 00:36:55,760 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 1: So Nora, So this was a story that was published 512 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 1: in Newsweek magazine, where Nora Ffron worked for a long 513 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 1: time and successfully sued at one point because they were sexist, 514 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 1: which there is a terrible Amazon Prime series about if 515 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: anyone cares. But there was a cover story that I 516 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 1: believe is in the mid seventies published in Newsweek that 517 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: I think Nora Efron is trying to comment on the 518 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 1: in this movie because she hates Newsweek magazine because she 519 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 1: sued them. But they published a cover story about how 520 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:33,759 Speaker 1: women over forty were fucked like that was what the 521 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: story was. It was all false statistics. There was like 522 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 1: Newsweek later had to retract the story, but even so 523 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: because the story came out and came out at a 524 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:47,320 Speaker 1: time where apparently everyone was reading Newsweek, there were charts. 525 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 1: It was written by wait for it all men, and 526 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: it was saying that like single women after a certain 527 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 1: point in their life just basically become defunct. And there 528 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 1: was this chart that said, like, you're more likely for 529 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 1: this to happen, You're more likely for this to happen, 530 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,840 Speaker 1: and the more likely to be killed by a terrorist 531 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:07,280 Speaker 1: thing was the thing everyone remembered. So what Nora Fron 532 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: is trying to do is roast Newsweek Because Nora Fron, 533 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 1: if you're a fan of hers, is notoriously very petty, 534 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 1: which is why I love her. If you watch if 535 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,840 Speaker 1: you learn anything about her, and then watch one of 536 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: her movies, you're like, there she goes again. She can't 537 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: let anything go, which I can relate with um in 538 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 1: in any case. That's why that is like cited in 539 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,919 Speaker 1: this script over and over, even though they don't make 540 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 1: that clear. It's weird because it's like we first hear 541 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 1: that statistics said by Meg Ryan's male co workers, right, 542 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 1: and then Megrian every time it said. The woman in 543 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: this scene says that's not true because they're supposed to 544 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 1: be Nora Ffron's pettiness, and they're right, it's not true. 545 00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: But I feel like there's a lot of there's a 546 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 1: few different male characters written into this script that are 547 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:07,760 Speaker 1: like cartoonishly misogynist so that Meg Ryan will look chill, 548 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:12,720 Speaker 1: which she's not. Yeah, I feel like the movie makes 549 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: an attempt to show any man who says this statistic 550 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: to show them to be stupid, stupid, you know, and 551 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 1: like Victor Garber, who Titanic Connection is so handsome, well, 552 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 1: like Rerida Wilson's character is like, that's not true. That's statistic, 553 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: it is not true, and then he's just like yeah, okay. 554 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 1: And my read was like the movie is trying to 555 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 1: make them seem like idiot assholes, but I don't know, 556 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 1: it felt like it wasn't because even so, like every 557 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 1: time it's employed, the female character is like, that's not true, 558 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:52,239 Speaker 1: but she's still made out to look ridiculous because the 559 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 1: scene where Rita Wilson's like, that's not true, she's still 560 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 1: sobbing about what sounds like a very troubling movie. Right, Yeah, Yeah, 561 00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 1: the men there may just seem like idiots, but at 562 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,359 Speaker 1: the same time, the women in the movie are all 563 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 1: portrayed to be like, I need love from a man, 564 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: or more love from a man, because we've got Meg 565 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 1: Ryan's character, who is in a committed relationship that seems 566 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: to be caring, but then she's like, but he's not 567 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 1: good enough, and I need more romance from God. The 568 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: in most Nora Ron movies, her vibe is very much like, 569 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 1: I'm going to make men and women equally irrational and 570 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 1: neurotic and impossible to understand their rationale for everything, And 571 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 1: that's true. Equality is everyone's out of their minds. That's true. 572 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:45,839 Speaker 1: Everyone's yelling at their sun. Just Tom Hanks is yelling 573 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:49,719 Speaker 1: at his son. Okay, he's since fence time yelling at hair. 574 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,879 Speaker 1: It suns a roommate. Son is not his son. It's 575 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: not his forty son is forty. They're like sitting in 576 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: an egg shaped you're listening to the Beatles back courts. 577 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 1: Do you like glance over most of the things that 578 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: like a fifty year old would do with the person 579 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: he met from a record store, because that's a I 580 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,479 Speaker 1: do like that Jonah's best friend is a girl, because 581 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: I feel like there's not that much representation on screen 582 00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: of like you know, a young boy and young girl 583 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:30,880 Speaker 1: being friends and she and she also is like smart 584 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 1: and you know, although she also sobs at this this 585 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:38,319 Speaker 1: troubling movie, she's she's a hacker as well. Yeah, where 586 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 1: she and she knows how to get the tickets. She's 587 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 1: basically like ninety three StubHub like she knows how to 588 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 1: get the tickets and how to get him on the plane, 589 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 1: and she sets up the whole itinerary and then she's like, okay, 590 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: time to die probably like and then she withholds information 591 00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:01,800 Speaker 1: about where he is so that he certainly does. But 592 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 1: the movie has a happy ending. One of the big 593 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 1: things I noticed about this movie is that the characters 594 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 1: within Sleepless in Seattle are very influenced by other media 595 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: and other movies. And you know, the carry Grant version 596 00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:23,760 Speaker 1: of a fair Remember gets referenced a lot. Annie says 597 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 1: something like, you know, she's watching it and she's like, 598 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: those were the days when people knew how to be 599 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 1: in love. And Rosier Donald's like, you're you're crazy. It's 600 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 1: a movie. Like that's your problem. You don't want to 601 00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 1: be in love. You want to be in love in 602 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: a movie. But this movie Sleep listens Seattle is still 603 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 1: it's like the exact same thing. It's still like a 604 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: romance movie where you're all we're all tricked into thinking 605 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:52,160 Speaker 1: that love is real watching this dark Caitlin, Oh my god, 606 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: so unfair to Remember? I did it deep dive on 607 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 1: So when A Fair to Remember is an important part 608 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,800 Speaker 1: of this movie. It's like where the construct of the empire, 609 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:06,240 Speaker 1: state building and the Valentine state comes from. But also 610 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 1: like it turns out there's a lot of stuff that's 611 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:13,800 Speaker 1: from the movie, including like somebody being creepy and taking 612 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 1: pictures of them. It doesn't pass the back tail test. 613 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 1: Surprise from doesn't pass the backdel test, and it's made. 614 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 1: It's actually a remake of another movie called Love Affair 615 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 1: thirty nine. Okay, so we got it's a star is 616 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:37,800 Speaker 1: born basically just that he's remaking it. But here's the 617 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 1: important part. So the important part is in the movie, 618 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,359 Speaker 1: the women to cry over it, and then the men 619 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 1: mock the women for crying over the movie and A 620 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 1: Fair to Remember. I get teary eyed and fake upset 621 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 1: about the movie. Dirty dozen. Yes, So I take hormones 622 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 1: and there becomes a period between my dosages of hormones 623 00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: when I have the most amount of testosterone. So I'm 624 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 1: manned up. I had a beer, I watched football, I 625 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 1: ate a pizza. Then I watched Dirty Dusn't and it 626 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:19,080 Speaker 1: was all right, yeah, this is gonna be another's chuck. 627 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 1: It doesn't pass to me. I know it doesn't. Not 628 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:30,479 Speaker 1: all women. The longest a woman's on screen is someone 629 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:37,759 Speaker 1: getting stabbed. Cool, cool, cool, you know, feminist text. But 630 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 1: then to try and again with a hypothesis. I had 631 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 1: my dosage of estrogen, and then I watched an Affair 632 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:49,919 Speaker 1: to Remember, okay, and I think I timed it wrong. 633 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 1: It just like put me to sleep. It was just 634 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,760 Speaker 1: there's a couple kind of there's a couple like musical numbers. 635 00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 1: There's musical numbers and all the other Affair to Remember 636 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:07,239 Speaker 1: remakes and it's quasi racist. But the only other thing 637 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 1: that you know is there's another remake of an Affair 638 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 1: to Remember that's in Indian one. So there's a Ballywood 639 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 1: version of an Affair to Remember called Man and that 640 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 1: was three hours long. I watched that one sober. It 641 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 1: has four dance numbers. All good, it passed the back. 642 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 1: But then then I have a new test, which is 643 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:42,320 Speaker 1: finding the movies that are three hours long but still 644 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 1: somehow don't pass the back like there are so there 645 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 1: are more than a few. But I was, yeah, that's 646 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 1: so that was my research. Oh my god, thank you 647 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,319 Speaker 1: so and a fair Remember did not make you cry 648 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:05,920 Speaker 1: like it does all of the women in this movie. 649 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,360 Speaker 1: You know, I mistimed it because I ended up like 650 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 1: watching My roommates were watching like Stephen Universe the next day, 651 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 1: and I was like in tears, like I was in 652 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,000 Speaker 1: I get in tears over the most ridiculous things, like 653 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 1: when I have a head full of Astarton, thank you 654 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 1: for the steep dive that you have. This this is why, 655 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: this is why this didn't help you at all. No, 656 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 1: this is this is very good context for the conversation 657 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:39,759 Speaker 1: we're gonna have is content content content. I loved it. 658 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 1: I just don't understand in movies so often that are 659 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 1: like referencing older movies, they kind of keep continually saying 660 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 1: like this is when love was real, back when women 661 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 1: couldn't vote, Like they're like, it's like we see all 662 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 1: these female characters longing for a time when they had 663 00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 1: less rites, and and then this movie kind of reinforces 664 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,879 Speaker 1: the idea that like, there are certain movies that are 665 00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:08,960 Speaker 1: women's movies, and there are certain movies the guys movies, 666 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 1: because like the women are all crying over, including like 667 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:15,280 Speaker 1: Cabby Hoffman are crying over and a fair to remember, 668 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 1: the men are making fun of them. They're saying dirty 669 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,720 Speaker 1: doesen't is what I like to watch, Like dirty Doesn't? 670 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 1: Incoming my Name is Victor Garber. It was like Victor 671 00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:31,640 Speaker 1: Garber is this is the only role I've ever seen him? 672 00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 1: And then I was like, oh, how could you? Like? 673 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:39,480 Speaker 1: He legally blonde? What he's hot in the movie though, 674 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 1: it's like he's not, so I forgive anything. Um. In 675 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:48,840 Speaker 1: this movie he was wearing an outfit that no I was. 676 00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:50,439 Speaker 1: I was like, I could take your leave this look, 677 00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,800 Speaker 1: and he was being horrible. So I did like the 678 00:47:54,680 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 1: constant acronyms from the kids, like h why didn't that stick? 679 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 1: And then there's the weird part where like Jonah is 680 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:12,279 Speaker 1: talking about reincarnation and the possibility reincarnation and how he 681 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:19,439 Speaker 1: could be reincarnated from another another plane, like this kid 682 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 1: is on mushrooms. He's listening to Penles records backwards and 683 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 1: talking about reincarnation. It's it's probably that we like find 684 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 1: out that he's thirty six and adopted and we're just 685 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 1: seeing him from an outside person. One more thing where 686 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:43,479 Speaker 1: there is a character is influenced by movie is Sam 687 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:45,759 Speaker 1: talks about fatal Attraction and how it scared the ship 688 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 1: out of him. He's like scared the shot out of 689 00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:48,840 Speaker 1: me and every man in America, and he cites that 690 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 1: as a reason to not go and meet Annie in 691 00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 1: New York City, which doesn't make sense because it has 692 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 1: nothing to do with fatal attraction. And you can literally 693 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:01,920 Speaker 1: it was just so dumb of like a line that 694 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 1: it's like remember that movie that's semi recent, and so 695 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 1: the movie practically like pauses for laughs. Everyone could be 696 00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 1: like fatal attraction, women who want careers are scary, like um, 697 00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 1: but it has nothing to do with fatal attraction. It's 698 00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 1: the same punchline that's like this is at a time 699 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,840 Speaker 1: when the crying game is still used as a punch 700 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:26,920 Speaker 1: line for reveal about a trans Yeah, like this is 701 00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:30,600 Speaker 1: this is a big time like Craig game and like 702 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 1: we're supposed to laugh. There were so many it was like, yeah, 703 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:38,239 Speaker 1: there were so many like transplanic movies from the like uh, 704 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:43,560 Speaker 1: silence of the Lambs, and then earlier was Sleepaway Camp. 705 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:48,440 Speaker 1: Like there's a line where Rosie O'Donnell says the falling 706 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:53,439 Speaker 1: the guy could be a crackhead, a transvestay. Yeah, that'd 707 00:49:53,480 --> 00:50:00,359 Speaker 1: be trouble. Oh no, there's more work to do. Yeah. 708 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: This is still in the middle of like trans women 709 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:08,399 Speaker 1: are dangerous. This is like the hot part of the nineties. Yeah, 710 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:16,879 Speaker 1: we're now we're in danger. How progressive can we talk 711 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:21,400 Speaker 1: about the map graphic that seems to happen. It's like 712 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,520 Speaker 1: you can go to the you can go to the 713 00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:27,200 Speaker 1: bathroom and then come back. I know it's still going across. 714 00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:31,200 Speaker 1: I like I think that that was like, first of all, 715 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,360 Speaker 1: this movie, it does take place in too many things, 716 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:38,279 Speaker 1: so I found it helpful. Um, and I kind of 717 00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:42,880 Speaker 1: like when movies are like, let's assume everyone seeing this 718 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 1: movie is an absolute idiot and they like can't remember 719 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,280 Speaker 1: that because I am that viewer and it was helpful 720 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 1: for me. I don't know how how worth it is 721 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:56,960 Speaker 1: to talk about this, but there is discussion of like 722 00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:02,080 Speaker 1: the changing landscape of dating that the Sam character has 723 00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:05,960 Speaker 1: to deal with, because like Tom Hanks and Rob Brenner's 724 00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:09,239 Speaker 1: characters are talking about you know, like Sam's got to 725 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,880 Speaker 1: get back out there. Boys are getting some bruise, and 726 00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 1: they're talking about it's there is a moment where we 727 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:19,919 Speaker 1: we alluded to this earlier, but they talk about Tom 728 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:22,520 Speaker 1: Hanks's but and I feel like a lot of movies would, 729 00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:25,279 Speaker 1: like especially from this era, would have taken that opportunity 730 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 1: to do like no homo, I don't know if you're 731 00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:30,759 Speaker 1: attractive or not, like but Rob Briners like, I think 732 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:34,360 Speaker 1: it's a good butt and say thanks. I thought that 733 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:39,080 Speaker 1: was genuinely cute. Even upon rewatching, I thought it was 734 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:42,080 Speaker 1: very cute. It was like, all right, you get me right, 735 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:46,200 Speaker 1: But then Rob Brener is like, well, nowadays you split 736 00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:48,840 Speaker 1: the check with your day. And then Sam's like, I 737 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 1: don't think I could ever let a woman pay for dinner. 738 00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:56,080 Speaker 1: So he is not a feminist icon. But also if 739 00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 1: a man is like that, like take his money you like, 740 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 1: so like if a guy gets all fucking scary white 741 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:07,480 Speaker 1: and I was like no, but Tom I was like, 742 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:15,360 Speaker 1: all right, man, I will get more like dipshit. And 743 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,839 Speaker 1: then he works up the nerve to call Victoria, who 744 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:22,719 Speaker 1: is called a hoe in this movie, like time like 745 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 1: treated so terrible. She did nothing wrong. No, she did 746 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:33,000 Speaker 1: is enjoy herself. She just giggled here and there when 747 00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 1: Tom Hanks made a goof It's it's the same like treatment. 748 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:40,839 Speaker 1: If you like go back and watch an episode at Steinfeld, 749 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 1: You're like, that person just has one thing that makes 750 00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:48,600 Speaker 1: them quirky and they're exaggerate so much as a reason 751 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: to like break up with that. Yeah, And that's like 752 00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 1: one of the things that I saw that Tom Hanks 753 00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:58,320 Speaker 1: and Meg Ryan's character actually had in common is that 754 00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 1: they would write off what seems like a positive relationship 755 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 1: based on one thing such as laughing or allergies. Yeah, 756 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:08,799 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, they deserve each other. They're horrible. They're 757 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:13,719 Speaker 1: both basically George Costanza. Yes, like I'm fine sleeping in 758 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 1: a room with a humidifier. That's kind, that can be 759 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:24,320 Speaker 1: rather nice. Who doesn't like a rainforest? Yeah? If I 760 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:27,560 Speaker 1: feel I feel for Victoria in this movie, because she 761 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:31,680 Speaker 1: truly seems like she really likes him. For quite some time, 762 00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:34,439 Speaker 1: it seems like he likes her as well. But it's 763 00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:39,640 Speaker 1: like Jonah just goes rogue, like he's just he hates her. 764 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 1: It is so unclear. He just is like, no, I 765 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:47,840 Speaker 1: want scary lady. Now and like he just goes totally rogue. 766 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:50,880 Speaker 1: He's on mushrooms. Then the kid goes full in so 767 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:56,360 Speaker 1: because then whenever he does work up the nerve to 768 00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:59,920 Speaker 1: call Victoria and like ask her out that phone conversation 769 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 1: we only hear sam side of it, but it's clear 770 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,240 Speaker 1: that like she's calling all the shots, like she's deciding 771 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:07,560 Speaker 1: where to go to dinner, what time they're gonna go, 772 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 1: they're going to meet there, rather than like him picking 773 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 1: her up, and like her being just a decisive woman 774 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,040 Speaker 1: who knows what she wants is framed by the movie 775 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:21,200 Speaker 1: is being like, oh, no, she's scary and weird, so 776 00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:23,840 Speaker 1: I didn't like to but she Yeah, It's like she's 777 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 1: truly just out here trying to have a job in 778 00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:32,719 Speaker 1: a relationship. Okay, leave Victoria alone. And she says like, 779 00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:34,440 Speaker 1: I'm so glad you called me. I thought night you 780 00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:36,440 Speaker 1: were never going to call. And it's like, I call him. 781 00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 1: I hope she and Bill Pullman met each other, because 782 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:44,400 Speaker 1: that's a lovely story, isn't me? Or is Bill Pullman 783 00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:47,480 Speaker 1: looked like face from the A team for most of them? 784 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 1: Don't I don't know? I this is peek Bill Pullman 785 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 1: for metely. I mean, he's firing on all cylinders here. 786 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:02,440 Speaker 1: He's about to reach week Bill Pullman, which canonically is 787 00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:08,800 Speaker 1: Daddy and Casper, that is he his character. I it 788 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:13,560 Speaker 1: sucks because he truly did nothing wrong, but it's just 789 00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:16,680 Speaker 1: like any I don't know. In some ways, I feel 790 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:21,080 Speaker 1: like it's punishing him for any sort of gentleness and 791 00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:25,880 Speaker 1: like making out gentleness and a man to be emasculating 792 00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 1: and a weakness. And something that Meg Ryan seems to 793 00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:34,480 Speaker 1: find completely repulsive is that when he is affectionate towards her, 794 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:36,759 Speaker 1: she's like, oh, and she gets in the closet with 795 00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 1: her radio and or you know, the fact that he 796 00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 1: has any illness makes her you know, and and I 797 00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 1: don't know. It's it's just so bizarre the way this 798 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:53,279 Speaker 1: character is treated. But Victoria's treated much the same way 799 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 1: of like she's doing nothing wrong. She seems to be 800 00:55:56,680 --> 00:56:01,960 Speaker 1: invested in the relationship, and they're just both treated like dogshit. 801 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,479 Speaker 1: But the thing that Bill Pullman's character is that scene 802 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:08,600 Speaker 1: at the end where Meg Ryan, can you imagine someone 803 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:12,240 Speaker 1: you are about to marry? Sits you down and says, okay, 804 00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:17,440 Speaker 1: So there's this radio show on Valentine's day. It's literally 805 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 1: like if someone in this audience, like if there's a 806 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:23,759 Speaker 1: couple here who's about to get married, and then one 807 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:25,560 Speaker 1: of you sat the other one down, and it was like, 808 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,759 Speaker 1: so there's this podcast called the Backdoorcast. I was gonna 809 00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:32,480 Speaker 1: update it further. It's like, so I met somebody on 810 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:37,960 Speaker 1: Snapchat or Okay, It's like, okay, if I say I'm 811 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,799 Speaker 1: getting married, I sit the person I'm getting married down 812 00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:43,239 Speaker 1: and I'm like, listen, I heard this show called The 813 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:49,600 Speaker 1: Joe Rogan Experience, and I have to marry Joe Rogan 814 00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 1: today and and and my partner was like, I totally interested. 815 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:58,000 Speaker 1: We've already figured out the wedding favor is going to 816 00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:07,280 Speaker 1: be a d MT. Yeah. His reaction is so accommodating. 817 00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:12,280 Speaker 1: That is he on mushrooms. I just feel so badly 818 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:15,440 Speaker 1: for for him. There could be a super cut of 819 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 1: all of the partners of the different main couples across 820 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:25,000 Speaker 1: these movies, just totally piecing out from the relationship totally amicably, 821 00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:30,000 Speaker 1: and it was ridiculous. It's third different levels of like, no, 822 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:36,040 Speaker 1: go ahead, I just want you to be happy, like 823 00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 1: no one wants Meg Ryan to be happy. Alternative he 824 00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:45,560 Speaker 1: like captured her and he's like, you're mine. No, No, 825 00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:49,720 Speaker 1: I think the alternative is like, Okay, this fucking sucks. 826 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:52,640 Speaker 1: But if this is what you have to do, I 827 00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:57,000 Speaker 1: guess fuck off. Like he could speak to her as 828 00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 1: if he were frustrated, but she's doing is obnoxious and unhinged. 829 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:09,360 Speaker 1: So there is a weird trope that I need. If 830 00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:12,480 Speaker 1: you have more examples of this trope, please shout it out. 831 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:16,640 Speaker 1: But ghost of his Wife trope appears in this movie. 832 00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:20,760 Speaker 1: It also happens in Casper with ghost Daddy Bill Pullman, 833 00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:25,120 Speaker 1: the only person hotter in Caspar. Then Bull Pullman is 834 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:30,280 Speaker 1: Bill Pullman's ghost during the part where Bill Hallman's a ghost. 835 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:37,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, Tom Hanks's wife comes over. She's in a nightgown, 836 00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:41,439 Speaker 1: she's got a glass of wine, like, and Tom Hanks 837 00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 1: is just like, I miss you, my wife, and she's 838 00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:48,680 Speaker 1: like it's okay. But we agree that they're like in 839 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 1: Seattle by that point, right, Yes, the ghost had to 840 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:56,080 Speaker 1: get on a plane, Like the ghost came with them, 841 00:58:56,280 --> 00:59:00,680 Speaker 1: Like there's an old chest of she guided and you're like, 842 00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:05,000 Speaker 1: I know this fella killed her. Well let's just keep 843 00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 1: it around. That was just like a weird extension of 844 00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:12,920 Speaker 1: his wife. Trope is like she just came to deposit 845 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:16,480 Speaker 1: a piece of wisdom and to basically give him permission 846 00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 1: to fuck Meg Ryan at some point, um, which is 847 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:25,320 Speaker 1: you know, I mean she was already her headstone has 848 00:59:25,320 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 1: already been yelled at by Tom hankson to add insult 849 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 1: to injury, they got a flyer ghost out to Seattle 850 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:34,440 Speaker 1: to say it's okay to hook up with Meg Ryan. 851 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:39,240 Speaker 1: I don't find that trope to be that troubling. I 852 00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 1: just think it's bad writing. Yeah, sure, sure, but there 853 00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:45,880 Speaker 1: are certainly more regressive tropes around. I think. I think 854 00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:49,040 Speaker 1: it's um, it's it. I think it works in movies 855 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 1: that are like super natural, I guess. But then again, 856 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:54,960 Speaker 1: like you end up with something where a wife has 857 00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:58,320 Speaker 1: to die to be some sort of mechanism for the 858 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:03,320 Speaker 1: movie moving forward, like woman has to die. True, it's 859 01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:05,919 Speaker 1: and and I mean Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan both 860 01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:10,360 Speaker 1: need kind of just to continue acting as they're acting 861 01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:13,240 Speaker 1: throughout the movie, which is irrationally. I feel like they 862 01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:15,680 Speaker 1: add in characters to give them permission to act that way. 863 01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:18,320 Speaker 1: I think Rosie o'donald's character is seems like that a lot, 864 01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 1: where sometimes Meg Ryan will call her and just be like, 865 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 1: is what I'm doing unsafe and irrational? And there's like 866 01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:31,400 Speaker 1: a scene for Rosie o'donald's like somehow no and Groads 867 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:34,960 Speaker 1: like sounds good. Hear that audience, it's fine. Click like 868 01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:39,800 Speaker 1: it's just so fucking weak. I will say, Rosie o'donald 869 01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 1: is like she's almost cast like a quasi Ricky Lake 870 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:48,680 Speaker 1: in the role, and she nails Baltimore like that is 871 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:52,200 Speaker 1: a Baltimore attitude in a kind of curt way. And 872 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:54,400 Speaker 1: I give them props for that. But then again, like 873 01:00:55,080 --> 01:01:00,920 Speaker 1: that newspaper would just be covering murders. There's more going 874 01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:05,600 Speaker 1: on in Baltimore. No, No, there's a lonely man in Seattle. Sorry, 875 01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:08,520 Speaker 1: this corpse just washed up in front of your house, 876 01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:13,000 Speaker 1: because we've found corpses in front of our house. We're 877 01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:16,400 Speaker 1: I've worked right there, and they would just like have 878 01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:21,320 Speaker 1: to shut off our work because just find bodies, not 879 01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:25,960 Speaker 1: not necessarily murders, just like you know, a corpse sure 880 01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 1: of course died of natural you know, a drug person 881 01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:34,680 Speaker 1: falls in Yeah, I mean, as we know from the 882 01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:41,880 Speaker 1: that corpse that washes up that was Robert Durst self 883 01:01:41,960 --> 01:01:48,520 Speaker 1: defending himself. Yeah, you dismember your neighbors in self defense anyway. 884 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:56,040 Speaker 1: And then our other female character that we see semi 885 01:01:56,280 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 1: frequently is Sam's sister, played by his wife, and we 886 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:05,920 Speaker 1: don't really know that much about her except that she 887 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 1: I mean she sort of used as like an exposition 888 01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 1: machine basically to be like, hey, you should move to 889 01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,160 Speaker 1: I don't know Seattle. I mean, she just sort of 890 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:18,120 Speaker 1: functions in relations. Yeah. The first thing that she says 891 01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:24,480 Speaker 1: is here's how to make food because women, uh. And 892 01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:29,800 Speaker 1: then later that long scene where she is recapping the 893 01:02:30,160 --> 01:02:33,000 Speaker 1: movie of an Affair to Remember and crying during it. 894 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:35,200 Speaker 1: So at least I don't do that as I'm recapping 895 01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:39,840 Speaker 1: movies on the podcast, but I am Victor garbering the 896 01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:43,120 Speaker 1: whole time. Is there a movie you would cry as 897 01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:51,840 Speaker 1: you recite back Paddington too? Maybe I'm just like an 898 01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:56,040 Speaker 1: emotional robot, But describing a movie doesn't make me cry. 899 01:02:56,240 --> 01:02:59,160 Speaker 1: Does that happen? Do people cry when you describe a movie? 900 01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:02,439 Speaker 1: I don't think people describe movies to each other very much. 901 01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:05,720 Speaker 1: I think we just do that. But I think that's 902 01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:08,840 Speaker 1: one of that's one of the things that this movie, 903 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:13,760 Speaker 1: like women are just shown as being so emotional that 904 01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:17,600 Speaker 1: like the thought of a romantic story will make you 905 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 1: just cry for a while. Yeah, and that's stupid. Yeah so, 906 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:27,720 Speaker 1: but also I cry constantly at the drop of a 907 01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:31,919 Speaker 1: hat about many things. However, the description of that movie 908 01:03:32,160 --> 01:03:35,920 Speaker 1: sounds just like, oh, no, I will say. In the 909 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:40,480 Speaker 1: middle of mon the three hour Bollywood version essentially of 910 01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:44,240 Speaker 1: this movie, there becomes a part where the female lead 911 01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 1: starts washing the feet of the grandmother in the temple, 912 01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:51,480 Speaker 1: and uh, I got Syria eyed during that. Okay, that's 913 01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:56,560 Speaker 1: that's where the two. I mean, crying during a movie 914 01:03:56,600 --> 01:04:00,480 Speaker 1: I think is normal, But crying while describing yeah that 915 01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. Not to shame anyone who does that, 916 01:04:03,440 --> 01:04:05,840 Speaker 1: but I feel like that just doesn't happen very often. 917 01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:09,600 Speaker 1: But all the women shown in this movie are constantly 918 01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:12,200 Speaker 1: talking about and affair to remember, even like the the 919 01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:15,480 Speaker 1: security guard at the end, it's like, oh, yeah, I'm 920 01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:18,240 Speaker 1: at the Empire State Building and you're trying to go 921 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:20,400 Speaker 1: up to the roof, just like that movie. It's my 922 01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:24,160 Speaker 1: wife's favorite, Like, yeah, you could have easily been like 923 01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:28,320 Speaker 1: written at that so that he was his favorite of that. Nope, 924 01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:33,520 Speaker 1: there are boy movies and there are girl movies. I mean, well, boys, 925 01:04:33,720 --> 01:04:36,360 Speaker 1: as we all know, should be listening to Beatles records 926 01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:41,840 Speaker 1: backwards and being yelled at by their fops. Do we 927 01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 1: have any other final thoughts? Uh no, this movie absolutely blows. 928 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:54,280 Speaker 1: Don't watch him? Should we take some questions comments from 929 01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:58,280 Speaker 1: the crowd Q and went, oh yeah, come come on down, 930 01:04:58,360 --> 01:05:01,400 Speaker 1: so that you're talking into my guest you. Yeah. I 931 01:05:01,520 --> 01:05:03,920 Speaker 1: just wanted to mention my favorite scene in the movie 932 01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:07,520 Speaker 1: where half the cast is yelling at Gabby Hoffman about 933 01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:10,880 Speaker 1: where that annoying kid is and her father walks up 934 01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 1: and introduces himself, saying, this is your father speaking like 935 01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:17,840 Speaker 1: explaining who he is to I just wanted to know 936 01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:20,880 Speaker 1: your thoughts on that. I hope that that was them 937 01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:26,360 Speaker 1: meeting for the first time. He's like, listen, I was 938 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:30,560 Speaker 1: called in after nine years. How old are those kids? 939 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:35,840 Speaker 1: Like eight? Nine? Yeah? Yeah, I think that that was 940 01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:42,400 Speaker 1: them meeting Cannon.

Why is she so 951 01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:26,920 Speaker 1: handy with a knife? Why it's like seeing this stalker 952 01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:31,640 Speaker 1: character use a knife handily is like, yikes, that's like 953 01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:35,640 Speaker 1: in all action movies when somebody's like peeling like an 954 01:06:35,680 --> 01:06:41,920 Speaker 1: apple with a bowie knife, right, like that seems like 955 01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:46,520 Speaker 1: it's an oh man when she's like listening to him 956 01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:49,320 Speaker 1: on the radio, and it was like it's like she's 957 01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:52,960 Speaker 1: thinking of that as like his skin.

I was like nineteen or twenty, 978 01:08:07,720 --> 01:08:14,080 Speaker 1: and he was just like, I love Drive. Ever seen it? 979 01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:17,479 Speaker 1: And I was like no, and he was like, let's 980 01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:22,000 Speaker 1: watch it. I have it in the DVD player already. Yeah, 981 01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:25,960 Speaker 1: Drive cute up. And then we were watching it. I 982 01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:30,400 Speaker 1: personally think that movie is a fucking drag. Was not 983 01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 1: enjoying it. And then he was just like, there's a 984 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:35,920 Speaker 1: scorpion jacket in the movie and he kept looking over. 985 01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:38,400 Speaker 1: He's just like that jackets cool, right, And I was like, 986 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 1: I guess twenty minutes later he was like, I have 987 01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:47,920 Speaker 1: that check Okay, but that's also the jacket. They what 988 01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:50,679 Speaker 1: is it is? Somebody helped me out here, he said, 989 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:55,000 Speaker 1: jacket also in a gay cruising movie. Yeah, it's a 990 01:08:55,120 --> 01:09:01,400 Speaker 1: really famous jacket, like a scorpio rising jacket. I'm forgetting 991 01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:04,639 Speaker 1: the name of it, but it's from a reference to something. Yeah, 992 01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:10,600 Speaker 1: that's a a cruise name jacket. Hell yeah. So he's like, 993 01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:13,280 Speaker 1: I have the jacket. He pulls the jacket out of 994 01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:16,880 Speaker 1: his closet and just leaves it next to me suggestively, 995 01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:20,240 Speaker 1: and then twenty minutes later he's like, I've always wanted 996 01:09:20,280 --> 01:09:22,720 Speaker 1: to make out while a girl's wearing that jacket, and 997 01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:31,880 Speaker 1: then I did for three years. That's I'm a feminist. 998 01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:37,800 Speaker 1: I've never been in a relationship, so I have no 999 01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:41,320 Speaker 1: movies and I'm in a relationship with myself and our 1000 01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:48,600 Speaker 1: movie is Paddington. Yeah, oh, I know. I'm sorry. Do 1001 01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:54,800 Speaker 1: you think I didn't know Paddington two was better? I 1002 01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:58,360 Speaker 1: I still haven't seen Paddington. Caitlin made me watch it 1003 01:09:58,479 --> 01:10:03,040 Speaker 1: on Christmas. I saw the first one by myself and 1004 01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:07,519 Speaker 1: I enjoyed it. It's so I think we me and 1005 01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:10,920 Speaker 1: my partner ours is just the It's really just the 1006 01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:16,320 Speaker 1: seventh season of Simpsons, because you like, you have to decide, 1007 01:10:16,360 --> 01:10:18,479 Speaker 1: if you're in a long enough relationship, you have to 1008 01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:22,479 Speaker 1: decide which season of the Simpsons you agree is the best. 1009 01:10:23,560 --> 01:10:26,120 Speaker 1: I can tell you right now, it will help you. 1010 01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:30,840 Speaker 1: We've been together for seventeen years, so yeah, we find 1011 01:10:30,920 --> 01:10:35,000 Speaker 1: this season that we liked Season seven. Okay, beautiful, it's 1012 01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:39,320 Speaker 1: a beautiful love story. Gang. Does this movie pass the 1013 01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 1: Betel test? Well? I there is a quick exchange towards 1014 01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:51,240 Speaker 1: the beginning where Annie's mom is holding up a dress, 1015 01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:54,519 Speaker 1: and so they talk about this dress back and forth 1016 01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:58,919 Speaker 1: for a couple lines, but the rest of the conversation 1017 01:10:59,040 --> 01:11:02,120 Speaker 1: is about Walter and about Annie's dad, and the context 1018 01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:04,559 Speaker 1: is like, here, take this dress so that you can 1019 01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:08,120 Speaker 1: marry a man, right, so you can marry Bill Pullman. Yeah, 1020 01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:12,040 Speaker 1: I don't feel like it at all. Yeah, every other 1021 01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:15,880 Speaker 1: exchange either. There. I thought there was an exchange between 1022 01:11:15,920 --> 01:11:19,120 Speaker 1: Meg and Rosie where they're talking about a Polaroid commercial 1023 01:11:19,240 --> 01:11:23,280 Speaker 1: and there's something about a refrigerator. I wasn't fully listening. 1024 01:11:23,320 --> 01:11:26,080 Speaker 1: This movie is very boring, but yeah, I know they're 1025 01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:28,880 Speaker 1: not talking about a man. They're talking about some commercial. 1026 01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:33,480 Speaker 1: I missed that one. But there are a number of exchanges. 1027 01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:36,439 Speaker 1: There aren't as many as you would think. I guess, 1028 01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:38,840 Speaker 1: but because there are a lot of female characters in 1029 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:42,440 Speaker 1: this movie, they're just they're not really frequently seen interacting, 1030 01:11:42,479 --> 01:11:46,280 Speaker 1: with the exception of like Meg Ryan and Rosie o'donald right. Yeah, 1031 01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:50,120 Speaker 1: and almost all of their conversations are about a man 1032 01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:54,000 Speaker 1: in Seattle that she's never met or Walter. Does it 1033 01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:57,160 Speaker 1: count as a conversation if she's yelling at the radio 1034 01:11:57,479 --> 01:12:01,599 Speaker 1: where Dr Mark I don't do. I think if she's 1035 01:12:01,680 --> 01:12:07,960 Speaker 1: yelling at Dr Marcia, uh no, but also a compelling argument. 1036 01:12:08,280 --> 01:12:10,960 Speaker 1: Does it pass the Backtel test if Tom Hanks's yelling 1037 01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:18,920 Speaker 1: at a child? Yes, Um, I think Alfred Molina could 1038 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:27,920 Speaker 1: have played Jonah. You stepped on my I think he 1039 01:12:27,960 --> 01:12:29,720 Speaker 1: could have played Jonah. And I think he could have 1040 01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:33,720 Speaker 1: played Jonah well. And I think if Tom Hanks is 1041 01:12:33,840 --> 01:12:36,679 Speaker 1: yelling at Alfred Molina, who's playing a nine year old, 1042 01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:42,200 Speaker 1: we've got a psychological thriller on her and I would 1043 01:12:42,240 --> 01:12:47,280 Speaker 1: love it. So that's yeah. Also, it tragically passes the 1044 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:51,880 Speaker 1: Bechtel test. Yeah. I've seen two different readings where it 1045 01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:56,000 Speaker 1: like did or didn't pass the test. Yeah, it's I 1046 01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:59,640 Speaker 1: I will say I did think that that exchange with 1047 01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:05,200 Speaker 1: my gain Rosie did pass. Yeah, that I totally forgotten. 1048 01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:07,720 Speaker 1: So that's says something about that conversation. I've seen this 1049 01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:09,880 Speaker 1: movie three times in the past week, and I don't 1050 01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:18,120 Speaker 1: remember that conversation. Still don't work. Yeah, but I guess 1051 01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:21,599 Speaker 1: it passes, so hooray. So yeah it did. So female 1052 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:25,960 Speaker 1: talking is fine and back well with that, let's rated 1053 01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:29,960 Speaker 1: on our nipple scales. Nipples based on his portrayal of women. 1054 01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:36,120 Speaker 1: I think that it gets like a half nipple. Women 1055 01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:41,679 Speaker 1: are portrayed as just being these like blubbering, like always crying, 1056 01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:46,080 Speaker 1: like hyper emotional, like no matter what, I need more 1057 01:13:46,320 --> 01:13:49,760 Speaker 1: men in my life. Yeah. The fact that she is 1058 01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:53,519 Speaker 1: stalking and that's not addressed in any way, and it's 1059 01:13:53,520 --> 01:13:56,400 Speaker 1: actually seen as being very cool and romantic. She's given 1060 01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:59,680 Speaker 1: permission to do it by multiple characters, so like when 1061 01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:04,320 Speaker 1: you do it, it's okay, right right. The movie subverts 1062 01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:09,160 Speaker 1: the trope of men's talking women, but that's also not good. 1063 01:14:09,360 --> 01:14:14,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, I guess a half nipple because Gabby Hoffman, 1064 01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:19,519 Speaker 1: are you giving your nippt to? I'll give my nipple 1065 01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:25,960 Speaker 1: to I guess to Nora Affron. Yeah, because she did 1066 01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:27,920 Speaker 1: right and direct it. So I mean, we've got a 1067 01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:30,800 Speaker 1: female phonemaker, but she didn't do a very good job. 1068 01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:34,639 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give this movie a nipple and a half 1069 01:14:35,680 --> 01:14:41,760 Speaker 1: because I am Anora affront stand even though she you know, 1070 01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:47,240 Speaker 1: mistakes are made, but um, she did marry Carl Bernstein 1071 01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:50,120 Speaker 1: and then they got divorced and then she roasted him 1072 01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:57,240 Speaker 1: NonStop until she died, which was fucking incredible. And I 1073 01:14:57,520 --> 01:15:00,200 Speaker 1: I just I love Nora a Fron so much. Um, 1074 01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:04,160 Speaker 1: and it has nothing to do with this movie, although 1075 01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:07,840 Speaker 1: you know she's clearly the person driving it. But it's 1076 01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 1: weird there. I think the kind of a recurring problem 1077 01:15:11,280 --> 01:15:13,880 Speaker 1: throughout her movies is that she kind of tries to 1078 01:15:13,960 --> 01:15:16,280 Speaker 1: have it both ways a lot of time, where all 1079 01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:20,439 Speaker 1: her female characters are very active, but what they're active 1080 01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:25,000 Speaker 1: doing you're like, oh no, like there, I mean, we 1081 01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:30,000 Speaker 1: can't deny me. Bryant's character is active as fuck because 1082 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:34,040 Speaker 1: she is committing crimes like she is. She's actively talking 1083 01:15:34,120 --> 01:15:37,760 Speaker 1: someone the whole movie. Uh, She's trying to subvert things 1084 01:15:37,840 --> 01:15:39,960 Speaker 1: at times that I think missed the mark with like 1085 01:15:40,640 --> 01:15:44,240 Speaker 1: every time a woman you know, refutes like no, that 1086 01:15:44,840 --> 01:15:47,840 Speaker 1: terroristatistic is wrong. But then she's also kind of made 1087 01:15:47,880 --> 01:15:51,320 Speaker 1: to look dumb in the same scene women being blubbering dummies, 1088 01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:55,720 Speaker 1: but they're also hackers, so you know she there. There's 1089 01:15:55,720 --> 01:15:58,120 Speaker 1: a there's a lot of mixed bagginess to to this 1090 01:15:58,360 --> 01:16:01,439 Speaker 1: movie that doesn't I don't even think that, like the 1091 01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:03,960 Speaker 1: female stalker thing is an issue of its time. It's 1092 01:16:04,040 --> 01:16:07,360 Speaker 1: just like weird. Okay, But I'll go nipple and a 1093 01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:11,000 Speaker 1: half and I'll give one to Nora and I'll give 1094 01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:15,000 Speaker 1: the other half to Rosie. All Right, I'm gonna give it. 1095 01:16:15,520 --> 01:16:20,639 Speaker 1: Uh Well, considering I've watched all of the other Love Affair, 1096 01:16:20,840 --> 01:16:24,559 Speaker 1: there's a fair to remember. There's the other Love Affair 1097 01:16:24,720 --> 01:16:30,080 Speaker 1: from four, there's the Bollywood movie, and then this. I 1098 01:16:30,240 --> 01:16:36,000 Speaker 1: think in the uber of all it's the only one 1099 01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:41,640 Speaker 1: more woman doesn't get struck down in traffic. So can 1100 01:16:41,720 --> 01:16:44,360 Speaker 1: I give it at least one nipple for that? Yeah? 1101 01:16:45,120 --> 01:16:48,280 Speaker 1: And I'll give another nipple for the for the girl 1102 01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:52,760 Speaker 1: Jessica um and also for the I'll cross both those 1103 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:58,320 Speaker 1: nipples too for the hopeful sequel that follows Jonah and Jessica, 1104 01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:04,879 Speaker 1: as Jonah was on to and create Instagram and Jessica 1105 01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:11,840 Speaker 1: invents the first Himalayan Salt Lamp compelling.
