Speaker 3: But it's such a fun show, so so excited for you.

34
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 2: Did you know Lily Cooper is one of the funniest

35
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 2: people on the planet.

36
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: Yes, I did, kemmish, I, yes, I did.

37
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 2: I can't look at her, I simply we can't look

38
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 2: at each other. Like she did something the other day,

39
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 2: I do something like in her face, and then she

40
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 2: laughed at her own reaction to me, and then I

41
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 2: started laughing her laughing at herself.

42
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: You guys are funny. That's funny. I love that.

43
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 3: I was really bad on stage and like broke a

44
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 3: lot and like tried not to break a lot. But

45
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 3: there was one point where Christopher still look at me

46
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 3: and he was like, you know, you're on stage right,

47
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 3: and I feel like Neil and Lily are going to

48
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 3: be that.

49
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: It's really bad.

50
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 2: It's really I'm glad I figured that out now because

51
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: it's happened one too many times where we just share

52
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 2: a look really quickly at the exact same time. And

53
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 2: that's why I'm practicing not breaking.

54
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 3: Just wait until you guys get into the run to

55
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 3: the point where you're like playing like past the sticker

56
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 3: or something like do you know what I mean?

57
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:47,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're comfortable enough. Speaking of musicals, today, we are

58
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: looking back at.

59
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 3: An iconic piece of musical theater that shaped every young

60
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 3: girl and boys musical theater love in when they were children. Yea,

61
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 3: it is the one and only Annie.

62
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 1: The nineteen eighty three movie. I mean, how cute is she?

63
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 1: I No, I'm sorry, it's the nineteen eighty two movie.

64
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 3: This movie, musical, all of it. Amy Pueller just talked

65
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 3: about this on her podcast with Them.

66
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 2: Oh really, what did she say?

67
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: You remember who her guest was at the time. Was

68
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: Either it wasn't Mrshca Hardiget. Maybe it was no, not

69
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: Kate McKinnon. It was one of somebody she had on recently.

70
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: Was a christ Wig.

71
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 3: Maybe yes, it might have been christa Wig, one of

72
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 3: those wonderful, highly talented icons that she's had on her

73
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 3: incredibly successful podcast.

74
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: Maybe Rachel Dratch. Maybe Rachel Dratch.

75
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 3: About how Annie was like such a piece of a

76
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 3: monumental piece of history in all of our lives.

77
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 2: Yes, why, I mean watching this, are you able to

78
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 2: tell why?

79
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: That's a good question.

80
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 2: I think it's no singular thing.

81
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: It's not singular. It's but I think a majority of

82
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: the music and the show is.

83
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,919
Speaker 3: Is encompassed by young girls. And they're young. They're young,

84
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 3: and they're peers. So like, as a youth watching somebody,

85
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 3: you're like, oh, these songs were sung by people my age,

86
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 3: these songs are relatable or can be relatable. You're not

87
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 3: singing adult songs. So I think part of it was

88
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 3: like attaching yourself to these kids. And then a part

89
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 3: of it was like.

90
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: Every musical theater teacher, every school, every showcase you do

91
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: when you're a kid, every class or whatever, you're singing

92
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 1: any because these kids are like, it's age appropriate. Finally,

93
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: like there's stuff forgets to sing.

94
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 2: I recently saw a video of Audern McDonald talking about

95
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 2: a song she used to sing as a child, and

96
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 2: people would be.

97
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: Like, you, you're.

98
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,799
Speaker 2: Singing that, because so often that that was the case.

99
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 2: Annie was like the.

100
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 1: Exception to that. Yes, and then there's all these kids

101
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: blowing their voices out on tomorrow and maybe but what

102
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: a joy, What a joy.

103
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: So Annie the movie premiered May twenty first, nineteen eighty two,

104

109
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 2: I mean, obviously, yeah, it was number one. Obviously there's

110
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 2: no Glee news at this point because none of us

Speaker 2: It's only three. It's like, I can't believe Annie in

Speaker 3: Yeah, very wild and exciting. But here's Annie, so It's

125
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 3: directed by John Houston.

126
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 2: The screen is famous, famous, huge, gigantic director, father of Angelica.

127
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: Houston, the the Houston Family.

128
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 2: Yes, and he he was old when he directed this.

129
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 1: He died a couple of years later.

130
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 2: Really, yes, and he was like in his eighties.

131
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: Wow, doing this unbelievable. Yeah.

132
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 3: Uh, this is based Carol Sobieski wrote the screenplay. And

133
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 3: this was based on the nineteen seventy seven stage musical

134
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 3: by Charles Strauss, Martin Sharnon, Thomas Meehan, which was based

135
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 3: on the nineteen twenty four comic strip Little Orphan Annie,

136
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 3: which I'll never forget.

137
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: I love the comic strip.

138
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 2: You know this comic strip?

139
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: Yes, you don't know those comic strips.

140
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 2: Well, it's from nineteen twenty four. Did they like revive

141
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 2: the comic strip?

142
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: They must or they must be like a yeah, I.

143
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 3: Mean they're they're My dad always loved the comic strips

144
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 3: in the newspapers.

145
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 2: Okay, so they must have brought because I'm sure they

146
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 2: brought us this musical and the movie just made it gigantic.

147
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah.

148
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 2: So the music was by Charles Strauss and lyrics by

149
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: Martin Sharnon. And I think this is the second point.

150
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 2: Besides the music being sung by kids like Grease, O

151
00:07:53,880 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 2: G Grease, this music is like really hooky. So these

152
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 2: are good standalone songs.

153
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: It's a hard neck life.

154
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 2: Oh my god, maybe the greatest sample of all time

155
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 2: by jay Z.

156
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: It lives on, It lives on. It's true.

157
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 3: They're very hooky bangers. They they move the story. They're

158
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 3: sung by a lot of them sung by kids. Some

159
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 3: of the other ones sung by adults are like aspirational,

160
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 3: like from the songs from Grace, Like it's just it's magical.

161
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 3: It's a really magical film and musical.

162
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: That really.

163
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 3: I don't it's hard to explain. It's really hard to

164
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 3: put into words.

165
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 1: But got all of us.

166
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 2: It was like any and Greece were the things that

167
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:55,079
Speaker 2: we all just latched onto. I used to stand in

168
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 2: my house screaming Tomorrow at the top of my lungs.

169
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 2: But that was my song like that really? Oh yeah,

170
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 2: I was obsessed, like bull. Do you remember that there

171
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 2: was a reality show when we were kids about finding

172
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 2: the next Annie for the Broadway revival?

173
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah so they I mean, I remember that clear,

174
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: very vividly in my mind. That show. I also auditioned

175
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: for it.

176
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 2: I'm sure you did.

177
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 3: I also auditioned for the Yeah, for the Broadway musical

178
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 3: they had us do Never Fully Dressed. It was like

179
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 3: such a thing, like the whole thing was like kind

180
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 3: of a cultural touch point in both shaping it and

181
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 3: then wanting to be a part.

182
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: Yeah.

183
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 3: I remember I was doing the Broadway Kids when I

184
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 3: was younger, and your Bowe and I who has been

185
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,640

187
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: I was recap who's a dear friend of both of ours.

188
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: Uh Is.

189
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 3: Andrea was really really little when we were doing Baby Kids,

190
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 3: but you know, her older sisters and brothers were all

191
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 3: in it as well, and we would do a hard

192
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 3: knock Life into maybe into tomorrow on in the show.

193
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 3: It was an hour musical review of all kids shows,

194
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 3: and we did the hard It's a hard Knock Life,

195
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 3: And the choreography was like very intricate and somehow, tiny

196
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,320
Speaker 3: little Andrea was always just like not missing a beat,

197
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 3: try with like brushes and hitting and buckets and stepping,

198
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 3: and it's just it's.

199
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: So ingrained in my mind. But I don't even know.

200
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: I think I cried a hundred times while I was

201
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 1: watching rewatching this too, or yesterday.

202
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,119
Speaker 2: Did you did you watch it with your kids?

203
00:10:58,640 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny.

204
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 3: I was at my desk watching it because I was like,

205
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 3: I was just working and I was watching.

206
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: It, and Emma was home and she came over because

207
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: she heard the music and just stood next to the

208
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: desk and like started watching it. And I turned around

209
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: and she's like, they're standing watching it at me. I

210
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 1: don't like like her watching TV in the middle of

211
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 1: the day, but I'm doing it. And she was just like.

212
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 3: Totally eyes like wide open, not speaking at all, and

213
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 3: I was like, I think I need to show her

214
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 3: this month. I sit her down because like the live

215
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 3: actions are so great to show her, especially the older

216
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 3: you know, like the more the classics like sound of music.

217
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: She loves sound of music. So yeah, I mean I

218
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: think it gets every kid. Yeah, I'm pretty sure girls

219
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: like with these dogs. The touring shows came through Dallas.

220
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: My mom took me to see it.

221
00:11:50,800 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 3: Of course, So let's go through some of this stuff

222
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 3: because you know, there's some fun facts and obviously you know,

223
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,839
Speaker 3: talking about the production and then we can't kind of

224
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 3: talk about our feelings about more of it.

225
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 2: But So Annie the Musical opened in nineteen seventy seven.

226
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 1: It was a huge hit.

227
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,959
Speaker 2: It won six Ohran for six years, I won seven Toni's,

228
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 2: including Best Musical, Best Score, Best Book. Yeah, I mean

229
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 2: it was gigantic. One of the replacements later on was

230
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 2: s JP.

231
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 3: Wow, and Andrew mccartl was Annie That's insane. So the

232
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 3: musical was kind of also inspired.

233
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: By uh.

234
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 3: The Orighan heroes in like Oliver Twist India for Coppeefield

235
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 3: characters who like Annie face hardship with hope and resilience.

236
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 3: Because me and Thomas Min couldn't really find much story

237
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 3: in the original comic strip, to be fair, so this

238
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 3: was like in the new Depression era setting and it

239
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 3: ran for two thousand, three hundred and seventy seven performances.

240
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 2: What's crazy is that it ended the year this movie

241
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 2: came out. I feel like it would have totally like

242
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 2: revived the Broadway run Wow, but it did have you know,

243
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,839
Speaker 2: like tours or it's the legacy of it. The weird

244
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 2: thing is so okay, the movie had this gigantic budget

245
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,319
Speaker 2: for the time. It was thirty five million plus around

246
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 2: thirteen million.

247
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: For nineteen eighty two. Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah. Wow.

248
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 2: It was one of the priceist musicals ever and the

249
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 2: most ecssive project ever done by Columbia Pictures at that point.

250
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 2: And it grossed fifty seven million, which is not that

251
00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:02,839
Speaker 2: great off of a thirty five million dollar budget. But look,

252
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,479
Speaker 2: we were born years after this and watched it repeatedly,

253
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,719
Speaker 2: so I think like video sales.

254
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 1: Of course, now.

255
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 2: It's like, you know, a classic and just's reruns and streaming.

256
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 1: And all of that.

257
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I got nominated for two Oscars, Right

258
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 2: Direction and Best Song Score.

259
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: I mean, look, if you were doing if it grossed

260
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: fifty seven million and the budget was ten right, twenty even,

261
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: but you know you're at thirty five million, that's more

262
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: than half of it. So yeah, I guess that's why.

263
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 1: So some fun casting facts.

264
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 3: So the role of Annie was determined after a nationwide

265
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 3: search involving nine thousand girls across the United States, and

266
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 3: that's without social media. Everybody, US, Canada and Europe. Wow,

267
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 3: they were looking everywhere and they made a little special

268
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 3: Annie Academy before Aileen Quinn, nine year old, was officially

269
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 3: selected for the rest crazy I know Albert Finney, who

270
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 3: ultimately starred as Daddy Warbucks.

271
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 2: Was considered, along with some other names like Sean Connery

272
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 2: and Carrie Grant. It's like, what about Telly savalis so true?

273
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: But also he was so good.

274
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 3: Similarly that Midler was approached for Miss Hannigan, which would

275
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 3: have loved to see Bett Miller's Miss Hannigan. Oh yeah,

276
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 3: she's got to have played Miss Hannigan at some point

277
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 3: in her life, don't you think before Miss Queen Carol

278
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 3: Burnett was casting me the character.

279
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: I mean, truly.

280
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 2: Incredible and also just love. I love that Carol Burnett

281
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 2: played this in the film, and then Jane played this

282
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 2: Broadway and the revival and then they were mother and

283
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 2: daughter Unglee, Like just that is a crazy weird circle.

284
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 3: The fact that like Carol Burnett, like at the I'm

285
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 3: just like, he's really going to kill her, She's just

286
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 3: a baby, Like it just killed me. I don't know

287
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 3: what that was, but the turn from her hate, like

288
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 3: the complexity of the character that she played and what

289
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 3: she brought to it in treating these girls like complete

290
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 3: but also then the deep love that you learn about her, which.

291
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: I don't even know what it is, and I don't

292
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: even know what it is.

293
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 3: Still but I don't care, it doesn't matter, Like it

294
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 3: was phenomenal.

295
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 2: It's also one of those things like Carol Burnett, like

296
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 2: Jane is able to play like all that crazy and

297
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 2: mean and sinister and then on a dime, have so

298
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 2: much depth of emotion, which obviously you know, that's why

299
00:16:53,600 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 2: she's a legend, because that is a crazy skill to have.

300
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 1: Yes, I mean, I think that's part of it.

301
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 3: Kevin is like, you know, the thing that hooked us

302
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 3: was like the chemistry all of these musical movies that

303
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 3: we've been watching, all of them that are complete hits

304
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 3: that in their own right, you know, however you look

305
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 3: at it, the chemistry was there, and these heavy hitters,

306
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 3: like hit like star after star after star, iconic actors

307
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 3: in these roles with this chemistry that just fits and

308
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 3: works like Rooster right, which anybody could have played right,

309
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 3: like any of these characters, any of these people that

310
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 3: they were looking at Jack Nicholson, McJagger, Mickey Rooney, Steve Martin,

311
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 3: Are you kidding? Before Tim Curry was chosen, Tim Curry,

312
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 3: Curry was perfect, but like wow, yeah, and look at

313
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 3: what Tim did in Rocky versus this character, Like what

314
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 3: versatility for an actor.

315
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 1: What a dream, but then also perfect.

316
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 2: I also thought that they created the role of Pepper

317
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 2: for Roseanne Sorrentino, who was Annie on the national tour,

318
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 2: so they can put her in the movie. She was

319
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 2: considered for Annie, but then they she was too old,

320
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 2: so they made a whole role for her. And then

321
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 2: you had like and Ryan King. Wow, who was Grace

322
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 2: and is a fossy trained Broadway dancer. I mean she is,

323
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 2: and she is number.

324
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 1: Unbelievable.

325
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 3: I there's not a lot of things I can say

326
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 3: about any of these people. And Ryan King, I mean

327
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 3: she is just royalty Broadway royalty. Yeah, absolutely, And she

328
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 3: was so graceful and so beautiful and just the most

329
00:18:59,119 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 3: aspirational person.

330
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: And in this film, just die.

331
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 2: So not to shame any of you, or to shame

332
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 2: all of you if you've been living under a rock

333
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,960

334
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 2: of a plucky, redhaired girl who dreams of life outside

335
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 2: her dreary orphanage, and one day Annie is chosen to

336
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 2: stay one week with the famous billionaire Daddy Warbucks, and

337
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 2: one week turns into many. The only person standing in

338
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 2: the way of Annie's fun is miss Hannigan. The jin

339
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 2: soaked ruler of the Orphanage played by Caraburnett. Will miss

343
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Yeah, there's a few songs that got caught

344
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:56,880
Speaker 3: from Broadway that didn't make it into the film. Oh,

345
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 3: I'd like to thank you Herbert Hoover and YC which

Speaker 3: I mean Let's Go to the Movies was actually one

361
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 3: of the most important numbers.

362
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 2: And then I mean stunning, Like let's go to the movies.

363

366
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 1: The yeah period, But I missed NYC. I definitely missed NYC.

367
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: I get it.

368
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 2: There's also something you know, when movies take place in

369
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 2: LA and they're making movies about LA, it doesn't have

370
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 2: never has any magic to me. But when movies take

371
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 2: place in NYC. Oh, yeah, and you have an incredible

372
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 2: song like NYC. Right, New York is always such a

373
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 2: great character to a movie, and it's such a great

374
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 2: backdrop for this movie. It is you know, it's inherent

375
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 2: to the story. Like this movie obviously takes place in

376
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 2: New York and I.

377
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 1: Just need it to get it. Yeah, I get it.

378
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:53,639
Speaker 1: I understand.

379
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 2: So the director of this movie, right, like we said,

380
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 2: Houston directs it. Originally they wanted Mike Nichols to direct it, Wow,

381
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 2: which would have been crazy. The Columbia bought the rights

382
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,239
Speaker 2: for this alone for nine point five million, Wow, the

383
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 2: most ever paid at that time. Yes, so they even

384
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 2: considered to direct at Herbross Randall Kleiser, who directed Degrees

385
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 2: Fossey frans Sport Coppola Absolutely nuts wow, And I was

386
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 2: like where did they film all this? Primarily at Mommouth

387
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 2: College now Monwau University in New Jersey. And the Warbocks Mansion,

388
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 2: which is what I was most curious about, was filmed

389
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 2: at Shadow Lane Shadow Lawn mansion furnished with elaborate props

390
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 2: and it teas valued at more than one hundred k.

391
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 2: So like, it's actually at a real place.

392
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 1: I mean, I got to be I couldn't. That place

393
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 1: is chick getting I know? Where is that? Is that

394
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 1: in Jersey? Yeah, it's in New Jersey. Yeah.

395
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 2: And West Long Branch, New Jersey.

396
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 1: Wow? Oh no, that's not with college sorry?

397
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 3: Oh yeah shadow Yeah, it's a historic building on the

398
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 3: campus with mana.

399
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 1: Oh that's that's part of it. Yeah.

400
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 2: That makes it's not a home, it's a hall.

401
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

402
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 2: And then they ended up shooting some of it in

403
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:29,880
Speaker 2: Burbank in California. They did they spent five months building

404
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 2: a massive replica of the New York City streets.

405
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:35,200
Speaker 1: Is that nuts?

406
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:41,479
Speaker 2: Yeah? Thatsign passed away during filming. Oh and then it

407
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 2: was the back lot was renamed after him.

408
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 1: Oh I didn't know that. So okay. The Easy Street

409
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 1: was such a great number, and it was initially stages,

410
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: a large outdoor sequence that took a week to film

411
00:23:56,280 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: and cost over one million dollars. Well, the producers felt it.

412
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 3: Was overproduced, rightfully, so, but the number was reshot two

413
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 3: months later as a more intimate indoor scene that better

414
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:11,919
Speaker 3: resembled the Broadway version.

415
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 1: You know, reshot, I respect that. I respect that too,

416
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: that's right.

417
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 3: But then I remember there was a TV version of

418
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 3: this movie that christ and Chanowa did correct and she played.

419
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: What's her name, Bernatte Peters character, and they did it

420
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 1: on the streets. I mean, they were fake streets. But

421
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 1: I loved it because it's called Easy Street, right. So

422
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: I understand being overproduced. I understand like the gritty of

423
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:54,120
Speaker 1: like the movie and the tone of the movie, but like, wow, wow, wow,

424
00:24:54,160 --> 00:25:00,160
Speaker 1: I would have loved to see that one, that cut scene.

425
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 2: There is some controversy around some of the creative changes

426
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 2: from the stage production to the movie. So Carol Sobieski,

427
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 2: who wrote this screenplay, moved the timeline from Christmas to

428
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:20,639
Speaker 2: the fourth of July hm hmm, and then something that

429
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 2: you mentioned already about miss Hannigan. It's her redemption arc

430
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 2: to save Annie from Rooster. Yeah, but watching it now,

431
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 2: I do sort of love it.

432
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 1: Yes, I think it needed it.

433
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't look I don't have all these changes.

434
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 2: The film reintroduced two characters from the original Little Orphan

435
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 2: anti comic ship, poon Job and the ASP, who serve

436
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 2: as the bodyguards.

437
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:52,880
Speaker 1: That Job. I mean, he's so important, just.

438
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 2: As many reasons why that was, you.

439
00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 1: Know, I know, but poon Job was. But I love

440
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: going chap he got magic to the.

441
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 2: Film, and then the film's original lyricist, Martin Tarnan, was

442
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 2: outspoken about the movie, said that he was that distorted

443
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,159
Speaker 2: with the musical, was criticizing Houston and Start for their

444
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 2: creative direction and said that Daddy Warbucks was an Englishman

445
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 2: who screamed, and missus Hanigan was a man crazy drunk

446
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 2: and Annie was cued up. Now here's where I agree

447
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 2: with him. He talked about how the producers downplayed Tomorrow

448
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 2: because it was too corny. I do think they downplayed

449
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:51,400
Speaker 2: Tomorrow too much, like there was no moment for Tomorrow,

450
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 2: Like I wanted a full Tomorrow number.

451
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: Am I wrong? I didn't bother me, I think because

452
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 1: it didn't feel like a performance, which I kind of liked,

453
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: like it was part of the scene.

454
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 2: It was, but like I wanted it to come back

455
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:15,719
Speaker 2: in a bigger way or something.

456
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 1: I understand, I get it. I don't think. I don't.

457
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: I don't know that I needed that from tomorrow. Tomorrow

458
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: is just Tomorrow, like it's always going to be the.

459
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 3: Song for Anny, right, And I don't know, I felt

460
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 3: like I felt satisfied.

461
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:33,159
Speaker 1: I felt satisfied.

462
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 2: I was a little I was a little let down.

463
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: I understand.

464
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 2: I loved emotionally how it worked in the.

465
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: Movie, and the scene was so cute. The scene was

466
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 1: really great.

467
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, like if we're gonna have Annie, And on the

468
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 2: poster it says the musical of quote unquote tomorrow you

469
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 2: have Roosevelt singing most of this.

470
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm a hater, that's okay.

471
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,640
Speaker 3: I I think you are not in the minority here.

472
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 3: And people who felt like it was definitely a little

473
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,360
Speaker 3: looked over for to be the song Tomorrow.

474
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 2: That being said, I love this movie.

475
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: I mean, this is just so good. It is so good.

476
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: It's giving me newsies vibes.

477
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,159
Speaker 2: Fully. I was like we have to watch Newsies after this.

478
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, fully Newsies vibes.

479
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 2: I mean a movie like I love a little period

480
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 2: piece and great depression, like nineteen thirty two.

481
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: The Orphanage, Like all the numbers in the Orphanage, from

482
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 1: Annie to like from Maybe and with the Molly, it

483
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 1: like sets up perfectly who Annie is to all.

484
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 2: These girls immediately.

485
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: And.

486
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 3: Oh man, it's just there's something so real about it

487
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 3: in the subject.

488
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 1: Matter of these girls.

489
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 3: And I don't know, but it's also like there's this

490
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 3: elevated concept of like going to be with Daddy Warbucks

491
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 3: and like a billionaire and the you know, and.

492
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 1: Just like bringing her in and it's just but there's

493
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: a there's a really fine balance that they found of

494
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: and the want for Annie and the want for these

495
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 1: girls is so strong that like you never have to wonder,

496
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: And I think that's part of it, is like I

497
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 1: know exactly what each character wants because it's so blatantly obvious.

498
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: But I want that in this film.

499
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 2: When do you ever get, like any such a complex character. Yeah,

500
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 2: she's like she's a survivor. She's just like, yeah, ten

501
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 2: year old little girl, and there's nobody that she can't handle.

502
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, and and grit and integrity like daddy billionaire Daddy

503
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: Warmocks is like let me take you in and adapty

504
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 1: and she's like I'm waiting for my parents, Like yes,

505
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 1: you know what I mean.

506
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 3: Like there's such a there's so much integrity and character

507
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 3: to Annie that you're like, Wow, no wonder we all

508
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 3: love her so much.

509
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, no wonder we are rooting for her.

510
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 3: And she clearly knows so deeply what she wants in

511
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 3: her heart and gets it right.

512
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: And like the music moves it. These girls are so adorable.

513
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:41,719
Speaker 3: Like the songs melodically are beautiful and catchy and fun

514
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 3: and easy to sing and you just want to like

515
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 3: sing them in the shower and in the car, and

516
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 3: I'm dying for Emma to do like you're never fully dressed.

517
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 1: Like there's just like such a joy to the reality

518
00:30:54,760 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 1: of this like world they're living. It's like positive and bright,

519
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: even though the circumstances they're all in.

520
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 2: That's the thing. Like maybe it's such a hopeful song,

521
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 2: but it's so devastatingly devastating tomorrow I'm still devastatingly sad.

522
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 2: But these melodies are so powerful, yeah, and moving, and

523
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 2: they cast the right Annie.

524
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 1: Because nine thousand kids.

525
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 2: She was able, like in some of those other kids,

526
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 2: speaking in like a technical level, right, like they're aware

527
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 2: there's a camera in the room. Yeah, I think Quinn

528
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 2: owned she was. She went up against she went up

529
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 2: against Albert Finney and was like completely fine. I was like,

530
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 2: let me just manipulate Daddy Warbucks real quick. Yeah, like

531
00:31:56,600 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 2: it's totally fine. And like hung with these legends, hung

532
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 2: with Carol Burnett and Ryan King, Yeah, no problem. Tim

533
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 2: Curry like no issues, no wow. And she's she was

534
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 2: nine or something when she got this movie, and she's

535
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 2: in almost one hundred percent of this movie. She's almost

536
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 2: in every single scene, and it's it's just a powerhouse performance.

537
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 2: I mean, she's singing, she's singing recorded materials. It sounds

538
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 2: like she's singing some live material like Tomorrow sounds live

539
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 2: for the first part of it. She's tapping with Albert

540
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 2: Finney at the end, like they're doing big set piece

541
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 2: numbers where they're moving around buildings.

542
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: The music was also not overly produced, which I appreciated. Yeah, right,

543
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 1: I did too.

544
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 2: There's also something about I think this is gonna be

545
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 2: a thing I mentioned every single time is the lighting

546
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,360
Speaker 2: mm hm, it is lit wonderfully. We can see everybody,

547
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 2: not everything is backlit, and we are seeing dance photographed

548
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 2: really beautifully. We're getting scale, we're getting intimacy where you know, like.

549
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: That's a thirty five million dollar film.

550
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 2: Right, but it also comes it's also like a.

551
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 1: Depth of knowledge. Yeah.

552
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's talent and like like you're able to

553
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 3: shoot like a huge number at the end, and you're

554
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,479
Speaker 3: also able to shoot some of these more intimate numbers

555
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 3: and then like.

556
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 2: Just hard knock life, you're able to shoot going through

557
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 2: this entire orphanage we're seeing. We're seeing the setting at

558
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 2: the same time we're seeing all these characters and we're

559
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 2: also seeing like a beautifully well choreographed number.

560
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, and there it was. I thought it was shot

561
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 1: really beautifully.

562
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, the movement, the stillness, the close ups, like, I

563
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 3: thought it was shot really well, like and the numbers

564
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 3: were shot well. Yeah, it wasn't a I mean there

565
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 3: was a lot of dancing actually, and it was shot well.

566
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 2: Because I think good sometimes like you know, walking with

567
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 2: intention or just like blocking doesn't look like choreo, but

568
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 2: that's all choreograph.

569
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 3: The camera was really moving with them like it was

570
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 3: really dancing with them. I thought, yes, especially in like

571
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 3: the the the more dancing numbers with ann Oh, that

572
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 3: was gorgeous, beautiful, gorgeous.

573
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 2: It's because it's not at that point too, You're like,

574
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,879
Speaker 2: let's just see the movement, like, let me say it's

575
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 2: I think it's such a skill to know of, like

576
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 2: when to let the camera be out of the way.

577
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, totally. So we started in the

578
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 3: Orphanage and we're doing Maybe, and we're doing Hard Knock

579
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,600
Speaker 3: Life and we're doing Mollie.

580
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 2: That's crazy like banger after banger.

581
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:54,240
Speaker 1: And then starts off like this and mister Bundles comes.

582
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 1: Do you think that Hard Knock Life or Tomorrow is

583
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 1: more quintessential Annie? I think Hard Knock Life is well

584
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: based off of this movie Hard Knock Life, but in

585
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: your opinion as a child, it was Tomorrow. I do

586
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,840
Speaker 1: think Hard Knock Life is more of.

587
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 2: The I agree, No, I agree with you, and I

588
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 2: just the.

589
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: Way it's shot, in the way that they do it,

590
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: and the kids and the movements, it all just I

591
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 1: think it's perfectly shot. It's so good, it's perfect. And

592
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 1: then when they stick her in the Lamberer he has

593
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,879
Speaker 1: the laundry, and Miss Hannigan comes in. You see Carol

594
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,560
Speaker 1: Vernett for the first time, and you know that we

595
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: love you, Miss Hannigan. It's every piece of this is

596
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 1: like if you took snapshots of each of these scenes,

597
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:52,320
Speaker 1: they are iconic. Branny, I feel like, yes, they're.

598
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,839
Speaker 3: Part of the film, They're part of the musical. And

599
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 3: Sandy when she's like, is the dog gonna come to her?

600
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,320
Speaker 3: And then in the broader musical when the dog runs,

601
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 3: everybody a plot.

602
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 4: Like yeah, oh man going along with Annie's storyline of

603
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 4: like she goes and you know she says they do.

604
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna like it here where you set

605
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,919
Speaker 3: up with Grace and like, gosh, I could I could

606
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 3: talk about this song all day long. It could be

607
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 3: done really terribly, and I've seen productions where it's done

608
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 3: really terribly. But like in this movie, I think the

609
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 3: musical is a little bit grittier and a little bit darker,

610
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 3: and it can be because it's stage. But this one

611
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 3: obviously is a big box office kind of like Blockbuster

612
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 3: production where you are seeing Daddy Warbucks as home and

613
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:43,280
Speaker 3: you're seeing the contrast between the orphanage and Daddy Warbucks

614
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 3: and I like that. I mean, I'm gonna like it

615
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 3: here she leads that so beautifully and ranking, and like

616
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 3: it's all the staff. You fall in love with the staff,

617
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 3: and if you watch them fall in love with Annie,

618
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 3: and like, it just.

619
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 1: Softens their whole the whole presence of the house. And

620
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 1: it's just like it's very very important to me that number.

621
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: I don't know why, but especially watching it again, I

622
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 1: was like, right, I don't think that I appreciated as

623
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: much back in the day because like, of course it

624
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 1: was all about the orphans and like.

625
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 3: You know, their songs, but like appreciating Grace in a

626
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 3: different way now I.

627
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 2: Felt the exact same way. I also thought it did

628
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 2: what Hard Knock Life did for us, where it introduced

629
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 2: us to the entire landscape of what we're dealing with here, right,

630
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,440
Speaker 2: And also like what you said, to be able to

631
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 2: show how needed a personality like Annie was in that house, yep,

632
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 2: and how everyone knew Daddy Warbucks needed that. All that

633
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 2: comes through in one song, and like, I don't like

634
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:51,959
Speaker 2: when a song is just there to exist. This song

635
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 2: has a purpose and shows you everything you need to

636
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 2: know about Daddy Warbuck. Daddy Warbucks and his house.

637
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:00,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and every and like.

638
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,800
Speaker 2: Obviously that's a huge part of this movie and show.

639
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

640
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 2: I also love I feel like being able to show

641
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:13,279
Speaker 2: how in the beginning of the movie how Annie is

642
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 2: sort of like house mother, like den mother to all

643
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 2: the girls and they come to her rescue.

644
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 3: By the end of it so sweet, and then all

645
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 3: the worlds are colliding, which I appreciate, Like it's not

646
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:27,719
Speaker 3: too all over the place.

647
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: There's not too many characters.

648
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 3: Like even though like there are a lot of characters,

649
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 3: they're all uh intertwined, and they're all.

650
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: In this like very compact world of like the orphans.

651
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: You have the Daddy Warbucks.

652
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 3: World, you have the Miss Hannigan and Rooster and Lily

653
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 3: Saint James world, and like that's it.

654
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it. You also get a little Roosevelt, and

655
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 2: I love like having the little like jokes about eleanor Roosevelt.

656
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 2: I like, you know, you see.

657
00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,400
Speaker 1: I also like at the current times of like like

658
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:00,200
Speaker 1: being able.

659
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 2: To get Daddy Warbucks out of his comfort zone he

660
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,840
Speaker 2: goes on the radio show. That whole bit is so

661
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 2: good Annie, seeing how it's being made is just really wonderful.

662
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 2: Like being able to see all this through a child's eyes.

663
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:16,239
Speaker 2: And at the same time, there's really serious stuff going on, right,

664
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 2: Like you have adults trying to fully take advantage of

665
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,840
Speaker 2: the situation, take advantage of Annie. Then you have adults

666
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 2: who are really wealthy and are using those powers, and like,

667
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,279
Speaker 2: what are Daddy Warbucks businesses? And why does he have

668
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 2: this much access to the president? But he all of

669
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 2: a sudden has a heart of gold and is trying

670
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 2: to help this orphan who he really cares about. Yes,

671
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:42,760
Speaker 2: And then you have Annie who goes from being hard

672
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 2: and being tough and manipulating everybody in any situation to

673
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 2: then like it's like the first true thing she says,

674
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 2: like amongst adults is like when Daddy Warbucks goes to

675
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 2: say he wants to adopt her. Yep, And like you said,

676
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 2: because the cast is it feels like it's a lot,

677
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 2: but really it's a simple sorry. And because it does

678
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 2: such a good job of making us want know their

679
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 2: wants and needs that when that moment does happen and

680
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 2: they all band together to like figure.

681
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 1: It out, he's like, great, call everybody.

682
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:26,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like everybody shows love in a very different way.

683
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:30,400
Speaker 2: His his you know, call this person and call that

684
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 2: person and get the helicopter and get you.

685
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 1: Know, yeah yeah, and the girls are you know, chasing

686
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 1: and they sneak out and Grace is like just the

687
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 1: heart of it all and so they just all have

688
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: different Yeah, they all come at it from different ways.

689
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:51,279
Speaker 3: But justice, Grace, justice, for she is doing everything. She

690
00:40:51,440 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 3: is running that country. Yes, okay, let's talk about the

691
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:04,720
Speaker 3: rescue scene for a second.

692
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 2: I fully forgotten this rescue scene existed totally.

693
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 1: I get why. I get it. I get it.

694
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 3: We're in a big movie. We need a big climax,

695
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 3: we need a big ending. We need Rooster to go

696
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,880
Speaker 3: after her. I don't know that it has to be

697
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 3: that big.

698
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,880
Speaker 1: Like she is. I am worried she is going to fall.

699
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 1: It reminds me of the kindergarten cop when he climbs

700
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:30,319
Speaker 1: all day to the time.

701
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 3: But it was effective and I felt things and I

702
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:39,800
Speaker 3: was I was nervous.

703
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 1: I was watching. I was like, forgot this happened. What happens?

704
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 1: Obviously we know what happens, but you know, see how

705
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 1: it all plays out, and it's just sweet.

706
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:55,239
Speaker 3: And I think we were seeing Annie also in a

707
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 3: light where she's not the tough one, she's in a

708
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 3: vulnerable position, very vulnerab well, like you know, and so

709
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 3: I think there was part of that. Also is like

710
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 3: finally seeing her in a place where she's like, I

711
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 3: need help. I'm not perfect, I'm not you know, like

712
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:12,360
Speaker 3: this isn't all.

713
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:13,360
Speaker 1: Gonna be okay.

714
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 2: So one situation she can't get herself out out.

715
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, thank you, thank you. I don't hate it

716
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 3: and I'm not against it, and I get it, but

717
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 3: I don't remember what.

718
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 1: They did in the.

719
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:29,719
Speaker 2: In the yeah, how does the stage show end?

720
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 1: I don't remember.

721
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 2: I I mean I it feels like classic movie, like

722
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 2: we have to up the stakes, we have to give

723
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 2: a reason why Miss Hand again changes her tune and

724
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 2: like shows that she actually does care about these kids

725
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 2: when it comes to something actually serious. And I thought

726
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 2: they like threaded that needle pretty well, like they didn't

727
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 2: hit you over the head with it. Like all the

728
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 2: dialogue is happening within the action of Tim Curry running

729
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 2: after her, and she says, very quickly, here's what I

730
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 2: feel like, so many movies now are just dumbed down.

731
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 2: I don't think this movie's dumbed down at all.

732
00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,279
Speaker 1: Agreed, Right, that's right, it is.

733
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 2: One line, it's like, oh my god, I think he

734
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,800
Speaker 2: actually means it and then runs after him. Yes, yes,

735
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 2: like we're not spelling it all out for you. No,

736
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 2: we're capturing it in real time. I did think, Yeah,

737
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,360
Speaker 2: that whole thing was a little crazy. We went to

738
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:31,480
Speaker 2: murder and we're going to kill her. But to be fair,

739
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,920
Speaker 2: it is in the middle of the depression. Fifty thousand

740
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:40,000
Speaker 2: dollars and she just ripped it up. And you have

741
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:41,359
Speaker 2: these people who clearly do not.

742
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:46,319
Speaker 1: Care any about anything except for money, right, and so

743
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 1: I mean again, we are motivated. Yeah, we are motivated.

744
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:52,560
Speaker 2: I get it.

745
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 1: I'm not mad about it.

746
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:58,400
Speaker 2: Do you also remember the other version of Annie that

747
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 2: came out when we were kids, the TV one with

748
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:09,799
Speaker 2: Kathy Bates and Victor Carverer. No, so in nineteen eighty nine,

749
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:15,759
Speaker 2: there was like a TV remakere Yes Downcoming Oh Christ Jennow.

750
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 3: Yes, it was the one of Christ I'm sorry, Yes, yes,

751
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 3: I do remember this one very vividly.

752
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 2: Because that was also a big deal to me.

753
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 1: Roger McDonald's Yeah, Alicia Morton, Yeah, yeah. Alisha Morton was

754
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,919
Speaker 1: also in Limiz on Broadway. I knew her, so, like, yeah,

755
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 1: this was circling the world of like it was. That

756
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:36,399
Speaker 1: was an important one.

757
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:37,799
Speaker 3: That was like around the time they were doing like

758
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:45,480
Speaker 3: Cinderella with Brandy If I'm impossible? Yeah, yeah, uh, should

759
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:46,640
Speaker 3: we great some performances?

760
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:49,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, there are so many numbers in this, I know,

761
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 1: let's go through some of the most you know, let's

762
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:59,480
Speaker 1: go through some highlights tomorrow. I mean A A maybe

763
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 1: A plus. It's hard.

764
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 2: I'm realizing it's hard for me to separate my love

765
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:05,760
Speaker 2: for these songs.

766
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:14,000
Speaker 1: And then it was really beautiful hard enough life Yeah, uh,

767
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 1: Sandy B plus Yeah, I don't know. I think I'm

768
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 1: gonna like it here A plus Little Girls, she's so good. Hey,

769
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 1: let's go to the movies. Its okay, I think it's absurd.

770
00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 1: It is.

771
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'll allow you one thing that doesn't need

772
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:34,320
Speaker 2: to be in here.

773
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:36,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he moved the plot.

774
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 3: We had to go to the movies. We had to

775
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 3: go to the movies. So what I did, never fully

776
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:42,360
Speaker 3: adress without a smile?

777
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 1: A plus?

778
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:50,120
Speaker 2: Yes, So I also love that, like the version of Glee. Yeah,

779
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 2: of never fully Dressed I thought was really wonderful, Like

780
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 2: like we did Little Girls and y C and a

781
00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,320
Speaker 2: mashup have never fully dressed out a smile.

782
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:05,560
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and like.

783
