Speaker 1: It's it is strange when you listen to a podcast
Speaker 1: a lot and you kind of get used to the
Speaker 1: beats and the and the format and everything, and then
Speaker 1: you're there in it. That's really on the show. It's weird.
Speaker 1: It's great. Thank you for having me. I'm excited to
Speaker 1: do this podcast and to to talk to you. I'm
Speaker 1: delighted you're you're doing it, and we'll find out if
Speaker 1: you really are. Someone who listens to the podcast. Someone
Speaker 1: who will remain nameless came on and said they were
Speaker 1: a fan, and then I tell them they died, and
Speaker 1: they said what and they shot that that was even
Speaker 1: part of it, and saying like, why are we talking
Speaker 1: about death so much? That's like massive, you're a message.
Speaker 1: Oh that's fantastic. Anyway, we're on name, I'm in that
Speaker 1: I Where are you? You're in LA? I'm in New
Speaker 1: York City? The Big Apple? Are he is? Have you
Speaker 1: heard that? I've heard of the Big Apple? Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: people call it that. Why it's called that, I certainly
Speaker 1: I don't know, but you know what, I love it
Speaker 1: and I love calling it that. I'm not I'm not
Speaker 1: going to act like this for the whole show. I'm
Speaker 1: sorry why I was doing that. Do you live there
Speaker 1: normally or are you just that because you're filming. I
Speaker 1: live in LA normally and I'm here shooting Severance, and
Speaker 1: I am away from my family for enormous amounts of
Speaker 1: time and it's a total bummer, but it's super fun
Speaker 1: making the show, so you know, to figure it out.
Speaker 1: It's a great, great, great show. I love Severance and
Speaker 1: I wanted to talk to you about it, only if
Speaker 1: you're not sick of talking about it, because I'm sure
Speaker 1: you do a lot of suppressed. But I think it's
Speaker 1: a great shide of class, amazing, it's brilliant, clever. It's interesting.
Speaker 1: I have watched it wondering if it is depressing to
Speaker 1: make purely because you're in a kind in most of
Speaker 1: the sets have kind of nothing to look at. You're
Speaker 1: in quite an enclosed space, often just a few of you.
Speaker 1: I wonder if your daily life of it, unless everyone's
Speaker 1: really fun, which I hope they are in this to be.
Speaker 1: It's a job about grind. Is it grind to lay? Well,
Speaker 1: it's hard to make, And the way I kind of
Speaker 1: think about it is it's hard to make, but it
Speaker 1: should be. I mean, you know, just look at it.
Speaker 1: It's of course it's hard to make it, but it's
Speaker 1: hard in a fun, challenging, let's try and climb the
Speaker 1: mountain sort of way as far as that stuff goes. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because we're under actual fluorescent lights for you know, fourteen
Speaker 1: hours at a time, and we're in that desk kind
Speaker 1: of pod in the middle of that big room. There's
Speaker 1: that four pronged kind of desk thing, and so the
Speaker 1: four of us are out kind of in this sea
Speaker 1: of green carpet under fluorescent lights in these long scenes,
Speaker 1: and yeah, it can start to kind of drain you
Speaker 1: just those lights and like you said, the sort of
Speaker 1: nothingness of the space and the aggressive green carpet, it
Speaker 1: does sort of drain your your energy after a while.
Speaker 1: But you know, luckily everyone's super fun. Like you said,
Speaker 1: it's it's a great group of group of people. I
Speaker 1: remember an interview with you very long time ago. This
Speaker 1: isn't I'm not about to like ruin your life. Remember
Speaker 1: very racist thing you said? No, it was you did.
Speaker 1: You were talking about years ago. You did an HBO
Speaker 1: show before you were kind of very well established, and
Speaker 1: it was like a sex show and it was very dramatic,
Speaker 1: and you you'd felt like, fuck, I don't think this
Speaker 1: is what I wanted to be doing. And luckily it
Speaker 1: didn't carry on, and then you got into comedy and
Speaker 1: you felt like this was your place, right, I'm not
Speaker 1: missing Well, no, yeah, I think you're remembering it correctly.
Speaker 1: It was a it was a really good show. It
Speaker 1: was called tell Me You Love Me, and it was
Speaker 1: really kind of the beautifully made and it wasn't exploitive.
Speaker 1: It was very kind of graphic sexually for sure. And
Speaker 1: uh and and and the person I had all my
Speaker 1: scenes with Sonya Walgers, this brilliant actor, and we became
Speaker 1: good friends and stuff. She's so great and the people
Speaker 1: that created are great and stuff. I think it was
Speaker 1: just really super super heavy. And when I went and
Speaker 1: did like Stepbrothers, I think we had done the first
Speaker 1: season of Telling You Love Me and then on hiatus
Speaker 1: before we're going to start season two. I did Stepbrothers,
Speaker 1: and I didn't really had had an opportunity to really
Speaker 1: like be in a comedy like that before. It was
Speaker 1: pre party down, pre parks and rec and and so.
Speaker 1: But driving to work at Stepbrothers, it was like, Wow,
Speaker 1: this is this is very different. Uh, this is really
Speaker 1: fun and you know, just trying driving to work trying
Speaker 1: to figure out how you're not going to laugh and
Speaker 1: ruin takes that day rather than driving to work trying
Speaker 1: to figure out how you're going to cry all day.
Speaker 1: It just was a it was a sort of a
Speaker 1: weight off and uh and it kind of got me
Speaker 1: sort of you know, addicted to to comedy. And really,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I guess I felt like it it
Speaker 1: gave me a new lease on because I wasn't sure.
Speaker 1: You know, every like five or seven years, I don't
Speaker 1: know if you do this, but every five or seven
Speaker 1: years you kind of stop and wonder if you want
Speaker 1: to be doing this? Yeah, does that happen to you?
Speaker 1: It's a weird question. I mean that I always know
Speaker 1: I want to be doing some area of this, the
Speaker 1: making stuff, But in terms of the laying your in
Speaker 1: I suppose it depends on your choices though as well, Like, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: you're right, because because I'm talking specifically about acting, but
Speaker 1: then there's writing and doing all these other things. I
Speaker 1: think with acting because that's what I started out doing
Speaker 1: when I was like twenty, I'm now in twenty twenty three,
Speaker 1: in my thirtieth year of trying to do this professionally.
Speaker 1: I think that I was going after it. I was
Speaker 1: just a kid and going after it so hard, and
Speaker 1: I think at a certain point I realized I was
Speaker 1: like twelve years in and I had never stopped to
Speaker 1: consider if I even wanted to still be doing this.
Speaker 1: It was just like trying to achieve something. So anyway,
Speaker 1: it's a long col de sac away from just trying
Speaker 1: to say, like the step Brothers and party down in
Speaker 1: Parks were this sort of triumvirate of jobs that kind
Speaker 1: of gave me a new lease on it and on
Speaker 1: the profession and made me really kind of really realize
Speaker 1: how much I wanted to be doing this at a
Speaker 1: time that I had and doubting it. So then I
Speaker 1: guess my question is with Severance, which is funny but
Speaker 1: it's definitely a drama, I would say it's very funny
Speaker 1: but definitely drama. Yeah, you was it just sucking out
Speaker 1: this is really good? I want to do this or
Speaker 1: what was part of it? I'd like to head back
Speaker 1: into that drumay place? Was it more conscious on that way? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think it was. I think when Parson Wreck ended,
Speaker 1: I wanted to find something just different, and and then
Speaker 1: you know, found that trying to find things that weren't
Speaker 1: comedy or try and get jobs that weren't comedy was challenging.
Speaker 1: And yeah, so I went and auditioned for Big Little
Speaker 1: Lies and got apart on that and that kind of helped.
Speaker 1: And then and then Ben Stiller sent me Severance, and
Speaker 1: it was just sort of the exact exactly the sort
Speaker 1: of thing that I've always been, you know, wanting to do.
Speaker 1: And because there was a kid, I was really in
Speaker 1: the you know, the Twilight Zone and stuff like that,
Speaker 1: and so, you know, I mean my first instinct when
Speaker 1: I first read it was I will never get this job,
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, just because I've been in this business
Speaker 1: long enough to know that when you read something that's
Speaker 1: kind of that's great, I'm not going to end up
Speaker 1: doing it. And so but I had to think about
Speaker 1: it in a way that you know that I've been
Speaker 1: spending all these years earning the chance at something like this.
Speaker 1: So luckily I ended up doing it, and uh, and
Speaker 1: it was exactly what I wanted to to try and do.
Speaker 1: Like you said, you're you're phenomenal in it. You're very,
Speaker 1: very very good in it. Season two, you know, like, man,
Speaker 1: I want to get back to the comedy. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's uh, you know, it is fun because you know,
Speaker 1: it has a really unique tone and there's a lot
Speaker 1: of funny stuff in it, but a lot of it is. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's heavy. It would be fun to go
Speaker 1: and do something a little lighter on its feet, for sure.
Speaker 1: Well let's say we can sort that out. Should that's
Speaker 1: not problem? I have forgotten to tell you something. Oh
Speaker 1: what's going on? No, it's it's silly because I think
Speaker 1: I mentioned Edie as talking about someone else, but then
Speaker 1: I forgot that should have sort of sparked it for me.
Speaker 1: But it's been a busy week. It's been a lot
Speaker 1: going No, no, no, that's that's not me. That's actually
Speaker 1: on me, and so I'm sorry, Like, it's not your problem.
Speaker 1: I just think I've been a bit distracted. But that's
Speaker 1: all right. No, Well, you're very kind of taking the
Speaker 1: time to do this, and I should have just said it.
Speaker 1: You you are, say you're dead. You died? Oh yeah? Ay?
Speaker 1: Oh sorry, how did you? Yeah? How did you die? Well,
Speaker 1: now that I am kind of thinking back on it,
Speaker 1: because when you said that, it was a surprise obviously
Speaker 1: because I, yeah, you could hear how I reacted. But
Speaker 1: now that I'm really thinking about it, I think you're right.
Speaker 1: I think I died. M I wouldn't lie to you.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, no, you you're telling the truth. By god,
Speaker 1: you're you're right. Yeah, No, I I died. I oh god,
Speaker 1: it's it's actually embarrassing. It's embarrassing. Yeah, it's not. No,
Speaker 1: it's not one of those uh deaths that just sort
Speaker 1: of projects dignity. It's no, it's a real bummer. Um.
Speaker 1: I was on a train, an Amtrak train. This is
Speaker 1: one of those really long trips and sometimes you can
Speaker 1: take like if you go from Arizona to to northern California,
Speaker 1: it's like a thirty six hour amtrak, right, Yeah, it
Speaker 1: takes a long time. So I was on the train,
Speaker 1: it was it was a long trip, and so I
Speaker 1: had to use the restroom. I did just kind of
Speaker 1: fresh and go in there and and uh kind of
Speaker 1: brush my teeth and do all the things to do
Speaker 1: before bed. How many hours we into the trip, this
Speaker 1: is about sixteen hours in and and I decided to
Speaker 1: to go to bed. I got one of the first
Speaker 1: class cabins that you spend money on thinking it's going
Speaker 1: to be a luxurious thing. But it's basically a metal
Speaker 1: box with beds that fulled down from the from the wall,
Speaker 1: and it's uncomfortable and incredibly loud. And I went into
Speaker 1: the bathroom to rush my teeth and do all that stuff.
Speaker 1: And I needed to change into my pajamas. And as
Speaker 1: I was changing, I was taking my shirt off. I
Speaker 1: had no bottoms on because I was going to put
Speaker 1: on pajama bottoms, and I was taking the shirt off
Speaker 1: and the shirt got caught on a hook on the wall.
Speaker 1: I guess a hook for a towel or something, and
Speaker 1: so it was caught up over my head. And as
Speaker 1: I stepped around to try and kind of free myself
Speaker 1: from the hook, I stepped into the toilet. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: then I lost my balance once and it's a very
Speaker 1: small bathroom. I fell sideways and hit my head on
Speaker 1: the side of the sink, ejected my foot from the toilet,
Speaker 1: and then fell face first into the toilet. Your head
Speaker 1: was still stuck in the head, still stuck in the sweater.
Speaker 1: But now it's all in the toilet, and my sweater
Speaker 1: plugs up the toilet and it fills with that blue
Speaker 1: liquid and I drowned in blue turred liquid. Other than
Speaker 1: that sweater caught around my face that I drowned in,
Speaker 1: I was completely nude. Jesus, I'm sorry. Sorry, that is Yeah,
Speaker 1: the problem we've dying like that is unfortunately, you've done
Speaker 1: so much work in your life. You've done so much great,
Speaker 1: great work. You've done classic series and made excellent films,
Speaker 1: and that's what you're going to be remembered. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: that's the only thing I'll be remembered for me, which
Speaker 1: is why I'm I'm so bummed out about it. That
Speaker 1: about it. Oh, well, do you do you do you
Speaker 1: worry about that? I do. It's been a preoccupation of
Speaker 1: mine since I was like fourteen years old. I think, right,
Speaker 1: that's what I'd like to hit. What do you That's
Speaker 1: the bread and butter of this this show. Isn't it
Speaker 1: that dress? People who did think about it? I mean,
Speaker 1: with it? This isn't a ducker it maybe, and that's
Speaker 1: fine if it. Did something happen when you're fourteen, or
Speaker 1: did it? It was when he started thinking about it.
Speaker 1: I remember I was homesick. I had like a flu
Speaker 1: or something, and so I was just home by myself,
Speaker 1: and I started thinking about what if I got cancer.
Speaker 1: It's not unheard of for a fourteen year old to
Speaker 1: get cancer. It totally happens. Maybe that's what's going on
Speaker 1: with me now, and it's maybe it's not a flu,
Speaker 1: Maybe I have cancer. What would happen if I had cancer?
Speaker 1: There's a chance I would die. I could die. And
Speaker 1: I just started going down that rabbit hole of this
Speaker 1: being a distinct possibility, never having really considered that before
Speaker 1: as a kid. And from then on. I remember, for
Speaker 1: the first few years after this revelation that I'd sort
Speaker 1: of privately made when I saw. So I remember going
Speaker 1: to see young guns in the theater and seeing people
Speaker 1: get shot and just being like, oh my god, every
Speaker 1: single one of them died. They died dead. Forever those
Speaker 1: people are all dead. And so death was just very
Speaker 1: much at the forefront of my mind for for years
Speaker 1: and years, and I guess it still is. It's just
Speaker 1: it's more I've more kind of accepted it, but it
Speaker 1: still freaks me out. Do you what do you think
Speaker 1: happens when you die? Do you think there's anything beyond
Speaker 1: this life? I don't at all think there's anything, but
Speaker 1: there's also that thing in the back of anyone's mind
Speaker 1: that sort of you have this kind of ongoing fantasy
Speaker 1: of what it would be if it did. It's almost
Speaker 1: like this denial. Even though I do not believe in
Speaker 1: ghosts or spirits or anything like that, and in fact,
Speaker 1: I'm always surprised at how how many people do. Not
Speaker 1: that I completely respect anyone's belief in that, but I
Speaker 1: always am so surprised when, like people, grown ups believe
Speaker 1: in ghosts and stuff. It always is weird. But I
Speaker 1: think people legitimately have these experiences that leads them to that,
Speaker 1: which which totally makes sense. I guess what's your fantasy then,
Speaker 1: just this sort of thing where you're you're just sort
Speaker 1: of forever around and looking down on everything and kind
Speaker 1: of all knowing and I don't know, I guess it's
Speaker 1: sort of ill defined and just just sort of this
Speaker 1: this sort of voyeur on a cloud. Yeah, yeah, not
Speaker 1: a cloud as much as just sort of up in
Speaker 1: the corner of the upper corner of a room, just
Speaker 1: sort of that's awful, just hanging out in the corner
Speaker 1: of the room, watching with a direction. That's awful. Yeah,
Speaker 1: still nude from the waist down, sweater over my head,
Speaker 1: just trying to get through the city, water in your sweat,
Speaker 1: going on in the have a corner. I'm gonna move
Speaker 1: over to the other corner and watch from there. What
Speaker 1: about you? Oh, well, you know, I know exactly what happens,
Speaker 1: do you though? Yeah, Well, there's a heaven, buddy, boy
Speaker 1: is okay? There is? You got there, Christ and you
Speaker 1: got there for a bit until you want to, you know,
Speaker 1: have another guy on the out on the ride. It's
Speaker 1: like it's like so it's like the Picks Up film,
Speaker 1: so in which they know exactly what's kind of wow. Anyway,
Speaker 1: you're welcome in heaven. They're actually one of the things.
Speaker 1: We had a chat about it heaven. We were like,
Speaker 1: well we talk to him about anything else other than
Speaker 1: the way he died. And we also say, no, this
Speaker 1: is heaven. We should we should, we should not. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he gets a lot of that when he's up in
Speaker 1: the corner watching people in the world. So anyone's talking
Speaker 1: about So you're very, very welcome, and heaven is filled
Speaker 1: with your favorite thing. What's your favorite thing? Movies? Well,
Speaker 1: then you've come to the right place. Oh great. Everyone
Speaker 1: wants to talk to you about your life, but they
Speaker 1: want to talk about it through the medium of film,
Speaker 1: And the first thing they want to know is what
Speaker 1: is Adam Scott. The first film you remember seeing? Well,
Speaker 1: the first film I have a clear memory of seeing
Speaker 1: in a movie theater. I remember people telling me I
Speaker 1: had seen snow White, but I don't remember that. The
Speaker 1: first one I have a clear memory of seeing was
Speaker 1: High Anxiety, the Mell Brooks film, Oh Wicked. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: it's not one of the like mel Brooks movies that
Speaker 1: he's really known for. That that's really kind of you know,
Speaker 1: in the culture as much as like Blazing Saddles and
Speaker 1: history of the world and stuff, and it's really funny
Speaker 1: and really well like it's really but as a like
Speaker 1: a four or five year old or whatever I was,
Speaker 1: it scared the shit out of me because the whole
Speaker 1: movie is him kind of replicating Hitchcock films and different
Speaker 1: scenes from Hitchcock movies and a little like James Bond
Speaker 1: because like Jaws is the guy with the silver teeth.
Speaker 1: But I didn't know any of that. I didn't know
Speaker 1: Hitchcock or any of those references. So to me, it
Speaker 1: was just insanely scary, so much so that I found
Speaker 1: it on Amazon a couple of years ago, having not
Speaker 1: seen it since then, and put it on it and
Speaker 1: found those two scenes that I remembered so well, And
Speaker 1: I remember in the movie theater losing my mind and
Speaker 1: just screaming and freaking out and my dad having to
Speaker 1: pick me up and carry me. My dad's a terrific dad,
Speaker 1: and I think that he thought we're going to go
Speaker 1: see a hilarious Smelt Brookes and it happened to be
Speaker 1: the one where they're where it's, you know, essentially a
Speaker 1: Hitchcock movie for all intensive No. I have an older
Speaker 1: brother and older sister and they were there and we're
Speaker 1: embarrassed and bummed out that I was ruining their Saturday afternoon.
Speaker 1: So your dad took you out, But they did, I
Speaker 1: guess so as far as I remember, Yes, they were like,
Speaker 1: get him out of here, let's we want to watch
Speaker 1: this smooth. I love Hi Anxiety. I really really loved
Speaker 1: the song he sings in the land, the song that
Speaker 1: is the name of the film. It's like one of
Speaker 1: my favorite sequences. See I don't I don't remember that
Speaker 1: we put didn't get that far? Is that? Is it
Speaker 1: mel Brooks that sings it in the Is it in
Speaker 1: the lobby of the hotel. It's like a lounge Like
Speaker 1: he's like a lounge thing. It's like the setup. It's
Speaker 1: like you have to sing and he doesn't want and
Speaker 1: it's all embarrassing, and then he's like an incredible sounding
Speaker 1: and it's very time to remember that. Look up the song.
Speaker 1: It will make you happy now other than High Anxiety.
Speaker 1: What's the film that scared you the most, Adam Scott?
Speaker 1: Do you like being scared? Yes? And I like I
Speaker 1: love horror movies. Yes. Do you love him? Yeah? Amazing
Speaker 1: how many people don't on this podcast? No, I love
Speaker 1: horror movie, like good horror movie. I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: of course, good horror movies. But I think Hereditary is
Speaker 1: the most recent movie that's genuinely terrifying, terrifying, scared this
Speaker 1: shit to me. Oh my god, yes, how long have
Speaker 1: it been? Sense of movie? Really fun? I mean, I
Speaker 1: guess The Strangers is that the one from like ten
Speaker 1: twelve years ago? With that one? Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that was scary too. But Hereditary was really fucked up.
Speaker 1: But I think I remember as a kid, it was
Speaker 1: a TV mini series that doesn't really count, does it, dude?
Speaker 1: Might let me hear it, The Atlanta Child Murders. It
Speaker 1: was a mini series on primetime television. Okay, it scared
Speaker 1: the shit out of me because I guess there were
Speaker 1: these things called the Atlanta Child Murders, and it was
Speaker 1: it was based on a real thing that happened. And
Speaker 1: I just remember watching it and seeing a car pull
Speaker 1: up above a ravine that went down into a creek
Speaker 1: and someone just tossing like a burlap sack out of
Speaker 1: the car and it just rolled down the hill and
Speaker 1: landed in the creek, and the insinuation being that there
Speaker 1: was a child in that burlap sack and I was
Speaker 1: a child, and it's scared the ship. I was up
Speaker 1: till one in the morning for years worrying about the
Speaker 1: Lanta child murders. After that, you know. Her redditary is
Speaker 1: the film where there are people in the corners of
Speaker 1: the ceiling. That's right, Tony collects in the corner, which
Speaker 1: is how you want, how you think death is? That's right.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe you're run stuffy. Yeah, isn't she like sawing
Speaker 1: her own head off when she's up in the corner. God,
Speaker 1: it's scary. It's really, it's so scary. It's terrific. It's
Speaker 1: really good. What is the film that makes you cry
Speaker 1: the most? Do you like cry? You cry? Yeah? And
Speaker 1: I do cry quite a bit watching movies. It's real
Speaker 1: easy to get me to cry. Yeah, I have kids,
Speaker 1: so ever since we started, since we had our first kid,
Speaker 1: which is like sixteen years ago. Now, anything with like kids,
Speaker 1: I cry. But I remember in the movie theater really
Speaker 1: having a solid good cry at the movie in her shoe.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, what the Curt Hanson film with Yes, Yes, Yes,
Speaker 1: and Tony Collett. Yeah, have you seen that? I have
Speaker 1: seen that? And their sisters they're sisters and it was
Speaker 1: yet another Hanson film that was completely completely different from
Speaker 1: the last, Yes, completely different, and equally like The River
Speaker 1: Wild or something did The River Wild? That he did
Speaker 1: that La Confidential, and then he did In Her Shoes. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I think it's just as masterful as La Confidential.
Speaker 1: It's just he's zeroing in on a period of the
Speaker 1: life of these two sisters who are super different and
Speaker 1: do everything they can to hurt each other as much
Speaker 1: as they can and just can't connect, and so they
Speaker 1: decide to stop speaking for a period of time. And
Speaker 1: then at the end, Tony Collette's getting married and Cameron
Speaker 1: Diaz speaks reads a poem at her wedding, and the
Speaker 1: whole relationship sort of, you know, before the wedding, they
Speaker 1: kind of come back together, and she spends all of
Speaker 1: this time with Shirley McLean at an old folks home
Speaker 1: in Florida. That's where she kind of finds her humanity
Speaker 1: again in a way. And then the sisters come back
Speaker 1: together and at the wedding she reads this E. Cummings
Speaker 1: poem and I just lost it. It was so beautiful
Speaker 1: and I love that movie. It's a great movie. I
Speaker 1: never loved the title. I always thought the title kind
Speaker 1: of gave the movie short shrift. It makes it sound
Speaker 1: silly or something. Yeah, it makes it sound of the
Speaker 1: swooping swooping jobs. But it's a it's a terrific movie
Speaker 1: in it. Every time I see it, I lose it
Speaker 1: at the end. That's so great. Out of that film
Speaker 1: has not come up. Yeah, I know what he is it?
Speaker 1: Then this, that's great? What is the film that you love?
Speaker 1: Not critically acclaimed, most people don't like it, but you
Speaker 1: love it whatever anyone says, Well, I kind of feel
Speaker 1: like this movie. I don't know, I feel like people
Speaker 1: generally like this movie or or everyone knows it super
Speaker 1: super well. But I feel like it's frowned upon it
Speaker 1: and and people turn their noses up at this movie,
Speaker 1: particularly when compared with the one that came before and
Speaker 1: the one that came after. It's always sort of looked
Speaker 1: down upon. And that's Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Right.
Speaker 1: So I have a my friend, Jake Tapper, the newscaster. Yes,
Speaker 1: can't believe, Yeah, okay, can't believe how sorry, says think
Speaker 1: Jake Tapper. Let's see if it happens again. Um, can't
Speaker 1: believe how much because I for me, it's my favorite movie.
Speaker 1: It's not what I it's not, you know what I
Speaker 1: think is the greatest movie ever made. But I may
Speaker 1: as well because it's my favorite movie because I was
Speaker 1: eleven when it came out out and I still can't
Speaker 1: believe how incredible it is watching it. It's from that
Speaker 1: first crazy musical number the movie does not stop. Um.
Speaker 1: I mean, there are things in it that have not
Speaker 1: aged as well as other things in it, and I
Speaker 1: think that's all. You know, you gotta just roll with that.
Speaker 1: But I love it so much. It's it's my favorite
Speaker 1: Indiana Jones movie and maybe my favorite movie. Wow. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can't get enough of it. That's cool. Do you
Speaker 1: like that movie? I do? I mean I I I
Speaker 1: haven't watched that one in a while. There's some kinds
Speaker 1: of problematic things in it. Yeah, I definitely remember that.
Speaker 1: It's a proper fucking a brilliant action sequence after it's
Speaker 1: It's crazy how these sequences I still can't believe. I
Speaker 1: don't know how they did it. Yeah, I think I
Speaker 1: have big self spot for the last three side because yeah,
Speaker 1: I like the I like them together very much, and
Speaker 1: the ending makes me cry. When when he tells them
Speaker 1: to let go because they have that really tough relationship.
Speaker 1: And you know, now knowing more about Spielberg and seeing
Speaker 1: the relationships with his parents and Fableman's, that relationship makes
Speaker 1: a lot more sense. I mean it always made sense,
Speaker 1: but it makes sense in a context of Spielberg. And
Speaker 1: I remember him apologizing for Temple of Doom when Last
Speaker 1: Crusade was coming out, and that hurting my feelings. Oh listen,
Speaker 1: if you've ever had this podcast, I get my feelings
Speaker 1: are hurt. Whatever Spielberg says, Hook isn't very good. I
Speaker 1: made a mistake with Hook. I'm a fucking buster face, right,
Speaker 1: what are you that? Right? Right? Right? And that's what
Speaker 1: it's a It's about what it means to whoever watches it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that's Cybut it's beautiful that in hash means
Speaker 1: that much too, because it is not a film that
Speaker 1: I don't think anyone talked about it in ten years,
Speaker 1: and this film was really that it's stuck with you.
Speaker 1: I love that. Yeah, yeah, I really like it. What
Speaker 1: is the film, on the other hand, that you used
Speaker 1: to love but you've watched it recently and you've thought,
Speaker 1: I don't like this anymore. It might be just because
Speaker 1: you've changed. I willed it down to three, and I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna pick one of them right now. And I
Speaker 1: think it's Red Dawn though the nineteen eighties one. Obviously,
Speaker 1: when I was, you know, in thirteen or whatever, when
Speaker 1: it came out, I went to see it over and
Speaker 1: over again because it was so frightening because that was
Speaker 1: at the height of the Cold War and we were
Speaker 1: all scared of the Soviet Union and stuff. And but
Speaker 1: I remember trying to watch it a couple of years ago,
Speaker 1: and it you know, when you watch a movie that
Speaker 1: just clearly isn't holding up and you're not even sure
Speaker 1: it's still qualifies as a movie. Like it's just so
Speaker 1: haphazard and doesn't seem to really hold together in any
Speaker 1: real way, which doesn't mean it's bad or anything. I
Speaker 1: just also I didn't really remember anything from it, and
Speaker 1: I remember going to see it over and over again. Also,
Speaker 1: it's just so jingoistic and that kind of raw, raw
Speaker 1: America thing right in the middle of you know, the
Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan eighties and stuff. I now find it deeply offensive,
Speaker 1: whereas then I just thought it was kick ass sweet
Speaker 1: that stuff because you saw it so many times. There
Speaker 1: are films particuarly from the eighties where you got that.
Speaker 1: I was obsessed with this film, and then you watched
Speaker 1: it now and you guys barely coherent. Yeah, So so
Speaker 1: how come you didn't notice that? And is it like
Speaker 1: just the hype of it and getting caught up in
Speaker 1: It's weird that you didn't know when you watched it
Speaker 1: a million times. It doesn't even make sense. I think
Speaker 1: the show, and I love John Millius too, and I'm
Speaker 1: pretty sure he directed that. I just remember the teacher
Speaker 1: or walking at because during English class, a bunch of
Speaker 1: air troopers parachute down onto like the football field at
Speaker 1: the high school, and the teacher goes out to ask
Speaker 1: them what's going on, and they shoot him with a
Speaker 1: machine gun, and his shirt sleeves with his tie just
Speaker 1: burst into all the squibs go and it looked and
Speaker 1: he just gets shot and just scared the shit out
Speaker 1: of me. And seeing the teacher get murdered in front
Speaker 1: of the kids and then them all running out into
Speaker 1: a truck, and it just like the day after was
Speaker 1: another thing that scared everybody, all the kids growing up
Speaker 1: at that time. So I think it was more the
Speaker 1: emotional charge of Soviet Union. Yeah, yeah, yeah, because and
Speaker 1: you know, when you're eleven or twelve years old, you're
Speaker 1: not as discerning or demanding an audience member. You know,
Speaker 1: what is the film that means the mice to you?
Speaker 1: Not necessarily the film itself is right, but the experience
Speaker 1: you had seeing it will always make it special to you.
Speaker 1: When I was in junior high school and elementary school,
Speaker 1: I told my mom I wanted to be a film
Speaker 1: critic when I grew up, and she she was like, well,
Speaker 1: you should, you should write movie reviews, and and so
Speaker 1: I started writing movie reviews for the school paper and
Speaker 1: junior high and I would do them sometimes in high school,
Speaker 1: but then I but in junior high, when I was
Speaker 1: like thirteen, twelve thirteen, I really started doing that whether
Speaker 1: and they didn't ask for them. I would just write
Speaker 1: movie reviews and give them to them and write and
Speaker 1: they would just put them in because no one else
Speaker 1: was doing. But my mom would bring me to movies
Speaker 1: so I could write the reviews. And I remember Good
Speaker 1: Morning Vietnam in particular being won it from that period
Speaker 1: that was really fun and it was it was Robin
Speaker 1: Williams really breaking out in sort of a somewhat dramatic movie.
Speaker 1: It was it was pre Dead Poet Society. It was
Speaker 1: his first sort of it was kind of his crossover
Speaker 1: movie into like Oscar, you know, prestigee material or whatever.
Speaker 1: And it's a really great Barry Levinson movie. But I
Speaker 1: just but it's also super super funny Robin Williams kind
Speaker 1: of improvising as a radio DJ. And I just remember
Speaker 1: that that period of time with my mom was really
Speaker 1: special because she would she would take me into all
Speaker 1: these movies Mosquito Coast and Platoon and all these movies
Speaker 1: from that from that period. That's nice, nice story. What
Speaker 1: is the film that you must relate to? You know?
Speaker 1: I remember when I saw Defending Your Life feeling like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's that's how I feel about everything, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I was I think I was seventeen years old,
Speaker 1: and I had seen Lost in America and I had
Speaker 1: seen Modern Romance, but that was the one that just
Speaker 1: hit me at the right time and I was like,
Speaker 1: oh wow, this is like this is my guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was that was a big deal. That was a
Speaker 1: big deal, and it had to do with death and
Speaker 1: life after death. And his clearly his anxiety about all
Speaker 1: of that, and he kind of put it into this
Speaker 1: this kind of perfect movie. I would imagine that movie
Speaker 1: comes up quite a bit on the show. I've heard
Speaker 1: it once or twice. So you were like about the
Speaker 1: people Albert Brooks were like, this is my right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I had grown up really loving and connecting
Speaker 1: with like Steve Martin and Letterman particularly, and those were
Speaker 1: like my guys. But Albert Brooks was this new gear.
Speaker 1: And Woody Allen as well was one that I had
Speaker 1: always loved as a kid, but then Albert Brooks was
Speaker 1: sort of this new gear. And then going back and
Speaker 1: watching Lost in America and being like, oh, I get
Speaker 1: this now. I wasn't quite connecting with this when I was,
Speaker 1: you know, nine, or whenever I saw it. And Albert Brooks,
Speaker 1: you know, obviously is one of the great comedy minds ever.
Speaker 1: Defending your life, it will always be sort of my favorite.
Speaker 1: I think forgive me for the nine this I live
Speaker 1: in America, but that's no excuse. Have you ever done
Speaker 1: did you ever do Letterman? Having been a huge fan
Speaker 1: of it, Yeah, I did. I got to do it twice.
Speaker 1: Great was that it was really amazing. I couldn't believe
Speaker 1: it was happening, really, And I didn't say it on
Speaker 1: the show because I figured it kind of goes against everything,
Speaker 1: like you don't want Letterman to react to you saying
Speaker 1: one of the reasons I'm doing this in the first
Speaker 1: places so I could sit here with you, you know.
Speaker 1: So I didn't say anything like that. I didn't, but
Speaker 1: I go with it. I used to sit on my bed,
Speaker 1: fashion it, make it like a couch and pretend I
Speaker 1: was talking to David Lederman as as a kid it was.
Speaker 1: And so yeah, I did. I finally might. I got
Speaker 1: my brother to come out to New York so he
Speaker 1: could be there because we were both in The Letterman together,
Speaker 1: and so it was Letterman a big deal for you
Speaker 1: growing up on the UK. I knew he was because
Speaker 1: I was always sort of into American stuff, but it
Speaker 1: wasn't like we had it. Yeah you didn't. You didn't
Speaker 1: have access to it. Yeah, yeah, but I'm aware of
Speaker 1: what he means. That's very cool. What is we did
Speaker 1: this now? Yeah? Well, I know it's the one people
Speaker 1: it's the any ways and people are changing. What's the
Speaker 1: sexiest film you've ever seen? Adams Scott I think it's
Speaker 1: sex lies and videotape. Good answer, Yeah, good film, great,
Speaker 1: great movie. Good god. It's one of my favorite movies.
Speaker 1: And and I think also just at the time, you
Speaker 1: know that it hitting me at a particular time, and
Speaker 1: and the fact that the main character is impotent, and
Speaker 1: ooh yeah, that that's just my that's absolutely my way
Speaker 1: in I mean, I am you know you you had
Speaker 1: me impotent? Um? Excuse me? Did someone say impotent? Um?
Speaker 1: I'll take two tickets. So that just sort of as
Speaker 1: a sort of starting place, the main character being impotent,
Speaker 1: and it then proceeding to be this sexually charged, super
Speaker 1: intellectually erotic movie. Just the relationship and the sort of
Speaker 1: chemistry between I hate the word chemistry because I think
Speaker 1: it's overused people talking about chemistry between actors, and I
Speaker 1: think usually people don't know what they're talking about. But
Speaker 1: the whatever it was that was happening between he and
Speaker 1: Andy McDowell, it was really special. And then also what
Speaker 1: was happening between Laura San Giacomo and Peter Gallagher. Peter
Speaker 1: Gallagher and James Spader had a really weird, electric, aggressive
Speaker 1: former friendship. You could tell it was already dead, but
Speaker 1: there's this kind of violence to the way they spoke
Speaker 1: to each other. And then uh, Laura san Giacomo and
Speaker 1: and Annie mcdo, all those those four there's just all
Speaker 1: this really interesting energy flying around. And yeah, and there's
Speaker 1: nary a sex seem to be I guess there's sort
Speaker 1: of is, but no nudity or anything. It's just I remember, Yeah,
Speaker 1: what's your issue with people saying chemistry to be next? Oh?
Speaker 1: I just feel like, um, I feel like sometimes I
Speaker 1: and I guess it's more sort of entertain my press
Speaker 1: talking about or or or critics sometimes I guess talking
Speaker 1: about the chemistry between actors or lack thereof. And sometimes
Speaker 1: I feel like it's not fair and it's completely subjective,
Speaker 1: like how do you know that there is no chemistry
Speaker 1: between these people? And what does that even mean? I
Speaker 1: think that And and sometimes there is chemistry on screen
Speaker 1: and there's something going on, but offscreen there's not, and
Speaker 1: vice versa. I think it's more subjective than I think.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's talked about, particularly by press and stuff talked
Speaker 1: about as being something more tangible than it actually is.
Speaker 1: I think it's more subjective. Yeah, sometimes the act is
Speaker 1: not even in the same room exactly. Yes, Yeah, so
Speaker 1: that's why I think, like like you don't know what
Speaker 1: you're Yeah, there's a subcategory troubling. Biden is worrying why
Speaker 1: I don't filmy found a rousing You wren't sure that
Speaker 1: you should? Adam Scott, what was it? I guess it
Speaker 1: was because I was a little kid, but nine to
Speaker 1: five really got me going. Lily Tomlin, Donald Parton and
Speaker 1: Jane Fonda. No, uh, predominantly sex film. What was what
Speaker 1: was throwing you off about? That? Was it? Women working?
Speaker 1: Women having to jolly? I shouldn't be into this women
Speaker 1: working and like tying up, like getting the guy like
Speaker 1: Dabney Coleman, they take him hostage or something. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't think i've seen it since, but I remember
Speaker 1: looking at the ad in the newspaper and seeing the
Speaker 1: three of them with glasses and pads of paper surrounding
Speaker 1: Dabney Coleman. And they're also cute and they have these
Speaker 1: cool outfit like business suits on and stuff, and just
Speaker 1: staring at it and not understanding the feelings it was
Speaker 1: giving me. And I think if you find that original
Speaker 1: movie poster you'll understand exactly what I mean. That's any
Speaker 1: it wasn't impotent between nine and five? This guy, what
Speaker 1: is objectively the greatest film of all time? Obviously not
Speaker 1: Template Team? What's the greatest? No? Your favorite? We're not
Speaker 1: talking Template Team unless you also think Template Team is
Speaker 1: the greatest. Well. I don't want to say that Godfather
Speaker 1: are good Fellows because I feel like you probably get
Speaker 1: that or have gotten that a lot, and it's sort
Speaker 1: of like, I don't think I get good Fellaws enough.
Speaker 1: Oh really, if that's your if that's what was your
Speaker 1: answer going to be, you must speak your truth at him,
Speaker 1: my truth. It changes for me right now. I think
Speaker 1: it might be the verdict. Oh wow, great, So I
Speaker 1: don't think that's been picked. It's a great, really great movie. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And it's sort of out of time. It doesn't feel
Speaker 1: like it's of a period. Really. The filmmaking is so
Speaker 1: so sort of staid and still. I don't even know
Speaker 1: if there's much music in it. It's a really quiet,
Speaker 1: great movie with maybe the best performance it's ever been
Speaker 1: on film. I don't know. It's a pretty perfect movie.
Speaker 1: The other one that I was maybe going to say
Speaker 1: is Reds because I think Red's is believable. But I
Speaker 1: think the verdict maybe for me love that you just
Speaker 1: think it's perfect, just perfectly that. Yeah, And it's not
Speaker 1: as you know, it's not the as wide in scope
Speaker 1: and and and the thing is as some of the big,
Speaker 1: grand greatest movies of all time that I usually think
Speaker 1: of when I try and think. But I think the
Speaker 1: scale doesn't really matter. It's it's what you're trying to
Speaker 1: do and what you're attacking and how well you do that.
Speaker 1: And I don't think they take a wrong step anywhere.
Speaker 1: And this the David Mannet script is there isn't a
Speaker 1: syllable out of place. It's perfect. And uh and like
Speaker 1: I said that that lead performance, in Jack Warden's performance,
Speaker 1: it's all perfect, right right? What is the film you
Speaker 1: could or have? What's the most over and over again?
Speaker 1: Maybe Midnight run right right? Though I've seen a long
Speaker 1: time holds up right? Yeah, yeah, it's great. It also
Speaker 1: doesn't feel of a time. I think the music is
Speaker 1: really for whatever reason, it's a Danny Elfman score, and
Speaker 1: it's it feels a little out of time. It doesn't
Speaker 1: sound eighties. It's I mean there's some like saxophone and
Speaker 1: some like bluesy guitar, but not in an eighties sort,
Speaker 1: you know how like some movies, Yeah, like The Tutsie
Speaker 1: is a perfect movie. But it has that montage in
Speaker 1: the middle with like a Christopher Cross song or something.
Speaker 1: It's just so weird or now it's weird. But Midnight
Speaker 1: Run has this super like cartooning action comedy score. And
Speaker 1: I did I love that movie. I think, you know,
Speaker 1: I figured that was one you might get a lot too,
Speaker 1: but but it is. It's a pretty perfect movie as well.
Speaker 1: Tyler's to be negative about him said, do it quick,
Speaker 1: what's the worst film you ever say? I remember as
Speaker 1: a kid going to see Jewel of the Nile, Yeah,
Speaker 1: the sequel to Romancing the Stone. Yeah, and having loved
Speaker 1: Romancing the Stone so much, and being so excited for
Speaker 1: Jewel of the Nile. And I remember I couldn't have
Speaker 1: been older than twelve years old. I walked out. Nah,
Speaker 1: I walked out of Jewel of the Nile. Maybe it's
Speaker 1: not that bad, like I said, I went and saw
Speaker 1: a Temple of Doom, probably nineteen times. I Temple of
Speaker 1: Dame of Romancing this day exactly. I couldn't take it
Speaker 1: being bad. And I love bad movies. I love bad movies,
Speaker 1: So trying to figure out what the worst movie is.
Speaker 1: Everest is tough, because I'd seek them out. I enjoy them.
Speaker 1: But I think that's the one that I remember being
Speaker 1: so excited for and and just immediately feeling like I
Speaker 1: was getting ripped off. Do you remember that being a
Speaker 1: fun movie or a good movie. I haven't seen in years,
Speaker 1: but I saw it as a kid and I and
Speaker 1: I loved it. And it's got when the guy and
Speaker 1: gets tough, get guy. You're right, it does have that.
Speaker 1: I think that's right. Remember the music video mode because
Speaker 1: I'd seen that music video so many times and was
Speaker 1: so charged up to see this movie because of the
Speaker 1: Billy Ocean video. Bemoin White states, absolutely, Douglas, that's right.
Speaker 1: That was in the same period as Dancing on the
Speaker 1: Ceiling Too. Yeah, suits and Running Scared where they have
Speaker 1: the Michael McDonald's song where they're in the Tropics. It
Speaker 1: was kind of a the milieu of the time, good
Speaker 1: time for that stuff. You're in comedy, you're very funny,
Speaker 1: you're a professional. What's the film that made you laugh
Speaker 1: the most? The aforementioned Defending Your Life was deeply, deeply funny.
Speaker 1: The Past Lives Pavilion. I remember my friend and I
Speaker 1: going to see it twice the first day we saw
Speaker 1: it because we had to see that scene again. But
Speaker 1: I think since I've already mentioned that movie, I think
Speaker 1: as a kid, like a little kid, like seven eight
Speaker 1: years old, my mom brought me to my Holy Grail
Speaker 1: Monty Python's Holy Grail, yeah, right, at a revival theater,
Speaker 1: and I think I remember like falling out of my
Speaker 1: chair during the it's only a flesh run scene. And
Speaker 1: of course, you know, that's a great movie for kids.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's disgusting and bloody, but any any any
Speaker 1: kid would look because you feel like you're breaking a
Speaker 1: rule of some sort watching this movie. And it's so
Speaker 1: so funny and just great. The filmmaking, too, is really
Speaker 1: really good. Filmmaker really good. Only that film. Yeah, in
Speaker 1: every resolutely absolutely like that is a great film. Forget
Speaker 1: the comedy, forget everything. I'm like, that is such a
Speaker 1: well made film. I totally agree. They were doing like
Speaker 1: handheld stuff in the forest and so fun, so good.
Speaker 1: Adam Scott, you have been an absolute pleasure and a joy. However,
Speaker 1: when you were on your thirty six our train journey
Speaker 1: amtrack and you're sixteen hours in and you thought probably
Speaker 1: time for bed, pulled down your slab of a bed
Speaker 1: off the wall. You went to pull your jumper off. Sweater. Sorry,
Speaker 1: you put your foot in the toilet. You got your head,
Speaker 1: caught your bangs your head, you fell, got your foot
Speaker 1: out of the toilet, fell forward, head first into toilet,
Speaker 1: your head stuck in the toilet. And as the blue
Speaker 1: liquid often used to denote a period in a advert
Speaker 1: for the same exact liquid, I mean, you know, so
Speaker 1: Sandra's house. I do know the difference. Thank you. The
Speaker 1: blue liquid filled. It's quite a cashmere sweater, act, wasn't
Speaker 1: it it? Really? Yeah? Thanks for you were sort of
Speaker 1: it was a lovely sweater and it blocks out there
Speaker 1: with the water board lovely. You basically waterboarded yourself in
Speaker 1: the in the shitty water. Anyway, took ages for you
Speaker 1: to die. I was waiting to pick you up when
Speaker 1: you arrived. So this was got sixteen hours later. I
Speaker 1: think everyone gets off the train. I'm like, I don't
Speaker 1: think Adam got off the train. I've got a coffee
Speaker 1: with me, you know what. I'm like, sort of say
Speaker 1: the guy, Can I just pop in check on my
Speaker 1: check on Adam, knock on your thing anywhere find you.
Speaker 1: You have swelled up to the size of four Adam Scotts,
Speaker 1: just filled with blue. Blue. Yeah, yeah, and you're completely blue.
Speaker 1: You look like a violet by regard in the end
Speaker 1: of John the Chactory And anyway, so me and the guy,
Speaker 1: I say, you've got one of them sort of fire axes.
Speaker 1: You know this, Yeah, of course, so coming we start
Speaker 1: chopping into your shit and blue is guy and everywhere turds. Anyway,
Speaker 1: turds just hitting the guy in the fam So sorry
Speaker 1: about my friend that keeps saying anyway, shop you up,
Speaker 1: get all the bits of blood but there's basically blood
Speaker 1: but now and putting you all in the in the coffin.
Speaker 1: But there's so much more of you than I was expecting.
Speaker 1: You'd have to really jam it all in. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: no room in this coffin. There's enough room to slip
Speaker 1: one DVD into the side for you to take across
Speaker 1: to the other side. And on the other side's movie
Speaker 1: night every night. What film are you taking to show
Speaker 1: when it's your turn, Adam Scott, I think that movie
Speaker 1: that would go and it's going to go well because
Speaker 1: it has sort of a blue theme. Color wise, the
Speaker 1: palette of the movie is predominantly blue. I think I
Speaker 1: might bring heat with me. Great. Yeah, all right, that's
Speaker 1: a movie. To watch it, great movie. You got time
Speaker 1: as well. It's long, it's long, three hours. You're dead,
Speaker 1: you really heaven, You've got time? Yeah, watch it over
Speaker 1: and over again. Adam Scott, what's a delight. Thank you
Speaker 1: so much for doing this right, Thank you for having me.
Speaker 1: I'm so great if you did it. Man, is there
Speaker 1: anything you would like to tell people to watch listen
Speaker 1: to look out for coming up? Season three of Party
Speaker 1: Down is currently out. This season finale is March thirty first,
Speaker 1: I think so that might be in the past by
