Wait, well no, 0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:50.160 and poke at my hole. We don't. We don't always sing, 0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:52.280 but you know, we talked about this. It seems like 0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:57.040 we end up singing a lot sometimes for no reason. 0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:01.680 You just have to sing. It comes from the heart. 0:01:02.800 --> 0:01:05.320 I love that that. I introduced you to the Dance 0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:08.240 Movie a few weeks ago. Yeah, the Dance Movie. Is 0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:10.520 it like is it like a drum line movie? Is 0:01:10.560 --> 0:01:13.559 it like one of those man see a dance movie, 0:01:13.640 --> 0:01:16.720 knol see footloose? For God's sakes? Is it like like 0:01:16.760 --> 0:01:20.000 one of those movies from the twenties with the big 0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:22.600 cakes and stuff and everyone's yeah, it's a big cake. 0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:28.240 That is you know what I'm talking about? Shock? Yeah, Well, 0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:30.760 the Coen Brothers got to um sort of duplicate that 0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:34.000 Inhale Caesar Scarlet dance. That must have been so much 0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:36.440 fun to yeh. You know, have you seen Ballad of 0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:38.600 Buster Scrugs yet? By the way, well, my friend that 0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:42.400 is on stream this in this very episode, so save it. Okay, 0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:46.200 I love that. Have you seen it? Yes? Several times? Well, 0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:48.360 we're gonna do a little mini crushed judgment then, alright, 0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:50.400 Social studies is what we're gonna start out with, though, 0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:58.520 everyone social movie. I asked you all a few weeks 0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:00.960 ago if you could ask your favorite actor any one question, 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:03.800 what would that be? And here would go with DC Hoover, 0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:06.720 good one, he says, I would ask Matt Damon why 0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:10.360 he never wrote another script after Good Will Hunting. You 0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:12.400 know what, I have a theory about that because you 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:16.079 know who has written other scripts? Ben Ben? So you 0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:18.160 think Ben was the main writer? Ben was was the 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:20.320 guy has been written other scripts? Did he write some 0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:22.400 of them? Wrote the Town Dude? Okay? I didn't know. 0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:24.840 I knew he directed, I didn't. Maybe maybe I'm right. 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:26.720 And I thought he wrote Gone, Baby Gone as well. 0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:28.880 I thought that that was adapted, wasn't it wasn't that 0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:30.799 based on a book. I'm wrong. I'm pretty sure he 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:33.320 wrote The Town though. Okay, well, why don't you type 0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:37.880 your little fingers over there into Mr ben Afflecks holes 0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:42.280 find out how he has them plugged? What it's going on? 0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:49.760 God's so base? Um, yeah, that's a good question. Why 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:53.959 would he never write another script he's in DC. Hoover 0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:55.560 says this. I don't know if it's uncool to like 0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:57.919 that script or film, but I think it's great. No, 0:02:57.960 --> 0:02:59.760 I think good Will Hunting is wonderful. Yeah, dude. He 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:03.880 wrote the screenplay for Gone Baby, Gone. Um. He wrote 0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:08.639 the screenplay for The Town. Wow, they were both good. 0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:11.280 They were both Another one called Live by Night or 0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:13.920 Live by Night, Well, that's the one. Like, he had 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:16.960 a really stellar directing and writing thing going until Live 0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:20.120 by Night. Yeah, it wasn't good. I didn't even see it, 0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:23.200 but it got paanned. He also wrote a screenplay for 0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:26.440 a Batman movie that didn't get made. I seem to 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:29.040 remember that floating around when he became Batman for right 0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:32.000 like him as Batman. No, but I'm serious, dude, I 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:35.840 think Matt Damon maybe not the writer. Well he may have. 0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:39.560 You know, there's lots of different ways to collaborate. He 0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:42.200 made not to put finger to keys. Well, there's there's 0:03:42.200 --> 0:03:44.120 it's funny too, because the joke used to be that 0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:47.320 ben Affleck was the big dumb bro and then Damon 0:03:47.440 --> 0:03:49.920 was probably like the brains behind the operation. But seeing 0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:56.000 some of ben Affleck's direct directing works, he's got some chops. Yeah, 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.600 maybe Damon's the dummy. Dummy remember how they up to 0:03:59.640 --> 0:04:01.760 be the are They portrayed him in that Team American 0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:06.240 movie where it's like that damn Yeah, yeah, it's like that, 0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:08.640 like those guys, I'm staying behind them. Yeah, me too. 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:10.520 Good to Hunting is great and it turned me on 0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.839 to Elliott Smith the first time. Really, that was where 0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:17.360 you got it? Huh miss misery? Yeah, so good alright, 0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:21.359 p Jacob stubble Field, says Hugh Jackman. I would not 0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:24.160 ask him a question, per se. I would thank him 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:27.280 for being the perfect Wolverine for so many years and 0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:31.640 always keeping the integrity of the character. That's wonderful, especially 0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:34.560 in that really really gritty one the last Logan. That 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:37.520 was great. What a movie. I really enjoyed that. That 0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:40.960 girls fucking fantastic, all of it. Everything about that, just 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:46.520 the way the arc choice for like such an iconic character, 0:04:46.520 --> 0:04:50.119 because it was so man just dusty and sad and 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:54.000 and just like violent in the most nihilistic way kind of. 0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:56.320 You know, I thought it was great well, and especially 0:04:56.360 --> 0:05:00.000 at the time where super heroes are eventually just replaced 0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:03.000 and like, well we got any Spider Man or now 0:05:03.040 --> 0:05:05.760 we got a new uh Fantastic Four or whatever. There's 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:09.279 no like to sinnamentality like or arc of a character. 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:12.200 Like with Logan. They're not just gonna replace I much, 0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:13.920 and they will at some point at some point, but 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.000 they have given this character sort of an end. We 0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:18.840 still need to grieve, Chuck Public needs to grieve, and 0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:22.560 then they'll drop in some new hotshot to be woltering. 0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:24.720 But maybe we'll do a good job and that'll all 0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:28.080 be in service of the work that Hugh Jackman did 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:31.880 for the character. Whoever they get has to be damn 0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:33.720 good boy man. I would not want to take over 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:36.360 like Heath Ledger doing the Joker. You know, he had 0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:39.000 some serious hues to fill and he and he did 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:42.279 a good job. He did. Uh. Andy Kepler, says John 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:45.800 Goodman was the oh you're just this is right up 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:48.400 my alley. Buddy was the fire at the end of 0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:51.360 Barton Fink real or part of the main character's imagination. 0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:56.000 Do you see Barton Fink? Yeah, I'm that that's sort 0:05:56.040 --> 0:05:59.320 of a spoiler, right there, isn't it? Uh not really? 0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:01.680 I mean there's there's a fire towards the end of 0:06:01.720 --> 0:06:03.400 the movie. Kind that's true. We don't have to get 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:06.040 too into it, um, but there's a lot of like 0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:09.640 ambiguity about what we're gonna going to discuss it. You know, 0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:12.520 we have to spoiler alert this a little bit. This 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:15.720 isn't John Goodman's character spoiler alert for Barton Fink movie 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:19.039 that's twenty years old at this point. Isn't John Goodman's 0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:21.880 character kind of the devil? Is that the point is 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:23.840 that maybe it's it is all in his imagination, that 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.360 this kind of like neurotic don't know writer that's like 0:06:26.400 --> 0:06:29.480 freaking out about this deadline, right, And there's this neighbor 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:31.919 in the hotel is who he turns out to be 0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:35.440 a serial killer, right, But it's not the devil. But 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:40.760 they're definitely like super fire is meant to be supernatural? Yeah, 0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:44.080 because it's not like it it showed like a fire 0:06:44.120 --> 0:06:47.720 started somehow. It's just it's spontaneous emanating from this to 0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:49.680 which one is what I'm saying, and as he ran 0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:53.159 down the hall of the fire spread with him. I 0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:55.400 don't know. I think it's just sort of that stylized 0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:57.320 Coen Brothers thing for sure. But I also think there's 0:06:57.320 --> 0:07:00.520 something to be said about the fact that the Barton 0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:02.600 fink or Um, this is what the actre's name. John 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:05.520 Dearro's character is just kind of slowly losing his mind 0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:08.360 and losing touch with reality and like, well, and that's 0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:10.400 what John Goodman is yelling at him as he runs 0:07:10.440 --> 0:07:12.200 down the hall is I'll show you the life of 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:14.720 the mind. There you go. Yeah, And that's the thing too. 0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:16.720 I think the Life of the Mind it's almost like 0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:23.360 adaptation right where you're experiencing this guy's creativity in him 0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:26.880 going mad like in him and losing losing his mind 0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:30.480 kind of. Yeah, that's how he's using his imagination. Is 0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:34.280 like instead of writing, he's kind of just like experiencing 0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:36.680 it all in this really visual way and working like 0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:38.200 right there with him. I don't know. I like it. 0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:39.960 I love that movie. It's a very good movie. That's 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:43.320 one of my old faves back in college. Very good stuff. 0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:46.400 Jane Savage. In fact, They're gonna have my good friend 0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:48.960 Eddie on to talk about Barton Fink. We've already talked 0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:52.320 about this. Jane Savage says, my favorite actress is Kathy Bates. 0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:55.160 I don't know what I would ask her except maybe 0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:57.640 about her roll in Six Ft Under, which is one 0:07:57.640 --> 0:08:00.280 of my favorite performances of hers. So wonder well that 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:04.080 show meant so much to me. Emily's favorite show ever 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:08.080 or number one mine too, Yeah, not equivocally. I was 0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:10.960 watching it right when my father died, And you would 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:13.360 think that that would be like a real bummer, like 0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:15.360 really heavy or like not something you would want to do, 0:08:15.800 --> 0:08:17.680 but it actually gave me a lot of comfort kind 0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:20.200 and it was really interesting that I just like I 0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:22.720 kept rolling with that show the whole way, like when 0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:25.280 it was on. You know, yeah, that's awesome. Yeah, what 0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:28.040 a powerful, amazing show. Kathy Bates is great. She was 0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:29.960 one of my favorite characters. You know, she popped up 0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:33.920 uh every now and then as a is. Uh. She 0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:35.720 wasn't a relative. Wouldn't she just a good friend of 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:39.480 Patricia Clarkson? Or was she? Yeah? No, a really good friend. Okay, 0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:41.160 but she was not a relative though, right, I do 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:43.600 not believe so Okay, they were just great and I 0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:48.440 love seeing those two together. Patricia Clarkson is a is 0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:52.600 a treasure A treasure dream guest. Yeah, she's amazing, boy, 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:55.840 I'd love to meet her. Cam Hoptman, says Tom Hanks. 0:08:56.400 --> 0:09:01.240 I would say after Big, how did Josh's life play out? Goodwin? 0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:05.440 I'd love to hear Tom Hanks surmised something like that. Yeah, 0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:07.480 it'd be fun. He does he get? Does he get 0:09:07.520 --> 0:09:10.440 shrunk back? Gets shrunk back to kid's size at the end? Right? 0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:13.520 He does? Uh? I would love to see a sequel 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:15.920 to that? How about a big sequel. Here's a weird 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:18.760 question for you. Did they have Did they really have 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:23.400 sex or was it just like heavy petting? Well? I 0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:28.800 think they really had sex as his adults, but yeah, 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:31.839 I mean it was technically whatever. And how did she 0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:38.240 not catch on? Like this person doesn't. That's going to 0:09:38.280 --> 0:09:42.240 could happen a lot, though, you know, I don't know 0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:44.360 it happens to all guys. No, that's what I'm saying. 0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:45.920 It's very true. But he was with like I think 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:48.640 was he ten? How old is he meant to be 0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:53.120 in that movie? I feel like he was like, okay, 0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:58.320 well then he had some ideas. I never really I 0:09:58.320 --> 0:10:01.280 mean that's so it's a weird question. I'm sorry, No, 0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:03.199 it's not tainted. It's a very nice movie. It's a 0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:06.440 nice movie. That scene always just weirded me out a little. 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:08.520 And I was also I was a kid, so like 0:10:08.600 --> 0:10:10.920 my kid when some people kiss on movie, she she 0:10:11.000 --> 0:10:13.640 covers her eyes. When I was that age, I think 0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:15.480 I was really uncomfortable with that as well. For the 0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:17.280 time until then, I was like sort of like, oh, 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:20.839 I gotta find more movies like this, you know. Uh, 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:23.480 Seth Nixon says he would sit down with gen Wilder 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.440 and say, what did you on, Cleeve? You and Cleeve 0:10:26.520 --> 0:10:29.840 on little talk about when you uh rode off into 0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:33.120 the sunset and the Cadillac at the end of Blazing Saddles. Oh, 0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:35.800 that's a great question, Seth. You know the end of 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:39.040 Blazing Saddles, they get in the Cadillac and ride off 0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:42.319 through the desert and there it's this great long shot 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:45.120 and they're laughing and talking to one another the tops down. 0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:46.920 You can see him talking and laughing and talking laughing 0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:48.920 as they drive away. He's like, what were you guys 0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:51.000 talking about? I would love to know that. You know, 0:10:51.040 --> 0:10:52.720 I don't remember that scene that that's That's a movie 0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:54.760 that I've always seen in little bits and pieces. I 0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:57.240 don't think I've seen it in one sitting, but maybe 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:01.680 the funniest movie joke joke for joke, got um William 0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:05.199 Angus says Vincent Donofrio, I would say, I would say, 0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:08.160 you've played a lot of bad guys, most recently on Daredevil, 0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:11.440 and now you're trying to be the new Lex Luthor 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:15.240 in the DC universe. I didn't know that what attracts 0:11:15.280 --> 0:11:17.680 you to play the bad guy? It's a good question 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:21.560 for Vincent donafrio, although he is not exclusively a bad guy, 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:23.480 but he can play a good bad guy. When I'm 0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:25.920 thinking of like the one the roles that come to mind, 0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:28.439 the iconic kind of ones I do think tend to 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:30.840 think of the bad guys well full metal jacket. But 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:32.719 that's the thing that that's a very ambivalent is he 0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:34.760 the bad guy? He becomes the bad guy, but he's 0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:38.199 also totally like he's just a troubled kind of sad guy. Yeah, 0:11:38.240 --> 0:11:40.760 he's not like a villain, no, not at all. Yeah, 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:43.360 but he has played some very larger than life villains 0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:46.400 like the Character and the the Cell, which whatever you 0:11:46.400 --> 0:11:48.960 think about the cell we're talking about earlier. He's like 0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:53.280 this weird, like psychotic demon overlooking and the guy that 0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:56.239 directed that did like the Losing My Religion video Tarsis. 0:11:57.679 --> 0:12:01.480 It's very visually come helling movie. Yeah, yeah, I agreed 0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:05.120 he did. Uh. I kind of thought that was the 0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:08.079 beginning of really big things for him. And I think 0:12:08.080 --> 0:12:11.920 he did another movie, um that didn't do as well 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:14.520 and then has not done a lot since. Alright, our 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:16.840 statman's checking it. Yeah, I'm trying to look up as 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:18.160 I am to be. I mean, he's definitely he's got 0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:23.320 a recurring role on one of those SVU type shows. Yeah, 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:25.240 he's he's on a law and order show. Didn't like 0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:27.640 that all the time, So I wonder if his movie 0:12:27.640 --> 0:12:29.920 career kind of took a a little bit of a 0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:33.240 back seat. Interesting to be an actor on a hit show. 0:12:33.679 --> 0:12:35.400 Oh no, I mean that's something that's wrong with that. 0:12:35.440 --> 0:12:39.120 But yeah, it seemed like that's a little sure prestigious, 0:12:39.160 --> 0:12:42.120 slightly lower because it's like, no, I agree, director of 0:12:42.120 --> 0:12:54.360 a movie as opposed to h on screen detective. Yeah, 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:58.720 all right, Kenneth Bella gutt Or Balago. I don't know 0:12:58.720 --> 0:13:01.600 how you say your name Daniel Craig, who was your 0:13:01.640 --> 0:13:04.880 favorite Bond? That is a great question to ask Daniel 0:13:04.920 --> 0:13:08.240 Craig that maybe that information may be out there. Actually, 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:13.040 I feel like Daniel Craig is lauded like Sean Connery. 0:13:13.080 --> 0:13:17.679 Perhaps I thought he was great. Who Daniel Craig, he 0:13:17.760 --> 0:13:19.400 is great. But who do you think his favorite Bond 0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:23.200 would be? Probably Connery? I think I've heard him talk 0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:25.360 about Connery has got had had a little bit of 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:27.880 the edge, you know, he had a little bit of that, yeah, 0:13:27.920 --> 0:13:29.160 and a little bit of the kind of like an 0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:31.800 intense face and eyes. And he wasn't just a little 0:13:31.800 --> 0:13:34.439 more dangerous little pretty boy, you know. Yeah. I agreed. 0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:36.440 I like Daniel Craig because he was just kind of 0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:40.240 like sad Bond, you know. He was like Bond as 0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:42.679 Batman kind of you know. Yeah, yeah, I mean it 0:13:43.640 --> 0:13:46.520 definitely rounded out that character and with a dimension that 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:49.640 we had never seen. We've never seen James Bond have 0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:52.760 emotions really, you know, not like that, Yeah, for sure, 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:54.880 when he loses his lady, right, yeah, I mean the 0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:59.320 only emotions that Roger Moore had were karate chopping and 0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:03.480 and boy yeah and and martini time. Hey, I love 0:14:03.679 --> 0:14:05.400 Roger Moore was my guy. I grew up with him, 0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:08.640 so I loved it. So apologies, I'm not trying to 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:11.800 disrespect the men's work. No, it's but but I think 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:14.480 the Daniel Craig stuff sort of elevated the bond material 0:14:15.080 --> 0:14:17.880 a little bit more of like a real type of 0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:22.520 human with complexities or whatever. Even was very old weather 0:14:22.920 --> 0:14:27.000 kind of you know. Yeah, I'm with you. Mark phone 0:14:27.160 --> 0:14:30.480 M says, not my favorite actor, but I always want 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:32.200 to have dinner with Eugene Levy and picked his brain 0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:36.000 about SCTV. That would be fun. He seems really fun. Yeah. 0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:38.160 I think he's a good guy too. Supposedly he'll also 0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:40.200 he'll do just about any project you throw at him too, 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:42.360 because he's been really he's been in some amazing stuff 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:44.680 and he's been in some Yeah, I bet he wouldn't 0:14:44.680 --> 0:14:46.400 be on movie Crush he would? Why because I was? 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:49.000 Because I'm talking to you. No, Um, I think he's 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:51.560 a hugely talented guy. But there are just some things 0:14:51.600 --> 0:14:53.360 where I'm like, why did you do this? Eugene? Like 0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:57.480 American Pie three, you know, like he I'm sure he 0:14:57.560 --> 0:15:01.680 has uh several hundred thousand reasons why that's fair? That's fair, 0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:06.160 chuck um. And then finally, Michelle Johnson says, Steve McQueen, 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:09.880 the legendary Steve McQueen. She said, I would say, what 0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:13.400 was it like making The Towering Inferno? And who did 0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:15.600 you like meeting out of all the stars in that movie? 0:15:16.280 --> 0:15:18.480 I love it, kind of fan bowing out with Steve McQueen. Also, 0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:20.880 given the opportunity, what role would you have liked to 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:24.400 have played in your career? Hey, Michelle, I love a 0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:28.240 throwback Steve McQueen reference. He was the man. Have you 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:31.080 ever seen his movies? No, I haven't. Bullet right, people 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:33.040 love Bullet, Yeah you should. I mean, if you're gonna 0:15:33.040 --> 0:15:36.360 see anything, see Bullet and like to me The Great Escape. 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:39.080 I mean it's a great movie, but I think his 0:15:39.200 --> 0:15:45.560 part of that's fantastic. Um. Yeah, Steve McQueen. No, no 0:15:45.640 --> 0:15:49.680 cooler guy has ever graced a movie screen. Perhaps All right, now, 0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:54.720 we're gonna stream this Ballad of Buster Scrugs, the Coen 0:15:54.800 --> 0:15:59.480 Brothers anthology film that was released on Netflix and in 0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:02.520 select theaters. Um, I'm kind of mad at and see 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:04.240 it in the theater. It was at the Plaza for 0:16:04.280 --> 0:16:07.880 another Plaza, the Midtown I just man that on the 0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:10.360 big screen it would have been really something else. It's beautiful, 0:16:10.440 --> 0:16:13.320 beautifully shot movie, beautifully shot movie. Did you love it? 0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:15.480 I did love it. There were some that I loved 0:16:15.520 --> 0:16:19.200 more than others. Of the of the six little vignettes 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:22.160 or whatever you wanna call him. Um, but the one 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:25.840 with the first one, the really funny one, the ballot 0:16:25.840 --> 0:16:29.400 of Buster scrub One's incredible. It's so funny and also 0:16:29.480 --> 0:16:32.120 really moving at the end. It's like, really really really good. 0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:35.080 The one with Tom Waits, I think is perfect. I 0:16:35.120 --> 0:16:37.840 think it's so beautiful. He's like this mountain man panting 0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:40.720 for gold and the streams somewhere and like looks like 0:16:40.760 --> 0:16:45.000 a painting. It's insane. Yeah, that's uh. Well. The first 0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:47.680 one is the Ballotbuster Scrugs with Tim Blake Nelson. The 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:52.200 second one is near algadonis Um, which I've actually spent 0:16:52.240 --> 0:16:55.200 some time in Algadonas, Mexico. It's right over the border 0:16:55.240 --> 0:17:00.800 from Mima, where I lived. Um. That one had what's 0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:04.040 his face? Franco, James Franco, and uh, it was the 0:17:04.080 --> 0:17:06.199 shortest one and really like I don't want to give 0:17:06.200 --> 0:17:09.960 anything away, but I thought was just very Cohen's the 0:17:09.960 --> 0:17:12.199 most Cohen Brothers of them all. Perhaps it's a comedy 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:14.480 of errors in tone, it's a total comedy of errors, 0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:16.880 you know, where everything goes wrong and then goes wrong 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:19.359 again and then gets better and then goes back to Yeah, 0:17:19.520 --> 0:17:21.960 it was really kind of funny, and they so much 0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:24.639 happens in such a tight, little compressed story. And I 0:17:24.720 --> 0:17:26.520 thought it was a band shot. Yeah, that was my 0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:30.720 favorite party band shot. This is great. The third one 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:34.240 was a meal ticket. This one was it was a bummer. 0:17:34.280 --> 0:17:36.600 This was the one with Liam Neeson and I can't 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:38.879 remember the actor's name, but the other guy that he 0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:42.879 worked with as sort of traveling Carney side nut carny 0:17:42.960 --> 0:17:46.880 but sideshow act um cool seeing Liam Neeson and something 0:17:46.920 --> 0:17:50.359 like that, though, you know, yeah, very understated role, Yeah, 0:17:50.560 --> 0:17:53.320 very little dialogue. Didn't kick anyone, didn't kick anyone to 0:17:53.359 --> 0:17:56.040 tell anybody with his it's weird how he became that thing. 0:17:56.080 --> 0:17:57.800 Well you did you hear what I just said? Yeah, 0:17:57.840 --> 0:18:01.280 what spoiler everyone, So if you haven't seen it, turn 0:18:01.320 --> 0:18:03.720 it off for twenty seconds. I said. Didn't kill anyone 0:18:03.720 --> 0:18:08.000 with his bare hands, but he did, Yeah he did, 0:18:08.400 --> 0:18:11.280 I know, But that was it was that was implied. Yes, 0:18:11.400 --> 0:18:16.760 I was implied, all right, everyone, we're backs. Uh, But yeah, 0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:19.439 I thought that was good and really sort of for 0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:22.800 the Cohen's very kind of emotional, very somber, somber. And 0:18:24.359 --> 0:18:27.640 I actually watched it with my mom over Thanksgiving. Um, 0:18:27.720 --> 0:18:30.600 she doesn't really like movies. She's kind of a curmudgeon 0:18:30.600 --> 0:18:31.680 when it comes to this kind of stuff and that 0:18:31.760 --> 0:18:34.359 she always is suspicious when I'm like, you should watch this, 0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:38.960 She's like, right now, I don't know. I remember the 0:18:39.000 --> 0:18:43.040 Bachelor Party right right. And so she loved the ballot 0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:45.040 of Buster Scrogs one. She just thought that was so 0:18:45.119 --> 0:18:47.080 funny and yeah, right, and you know I told her, 0:18:47.080 --> 0:18:48.679 I was like, it's a little violent, you know, but 0:18:48.760 --> 0:18:51.800 she really liked it. And I skipped the second one 0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:53.959 because I know the third She loved the second one 0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:57.080 with Franco. I skipped the really sad one because I 0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:59.920 knew it would like you had already seen it. I 0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:02.520 skipped it because I was like, this one's too down. 0:19:02.920 --> 0:19:05.120 She doesn't like stuff like that. And then we moved 0:19:05.200 --> 0:19:09.800 right on to the set all Gold Canyon so beautiful. Yeah, 0:19:09.920 --> 0:19:11.840 that one was so cool because not only is it 0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:13.320 you know Tom waits and it is so great to 0:19:13.320 --> 0:19:16.320 see him on the screen anytime, But uh, I didn't 0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:19.400 know how prospecting worked. I didn't, and to see that, 0:19:19.600 --> 0:19:22.800 it's so fucking It's all about like you digging holes. Dude, 0:19:22.800 --> 0:19:25.159 you're digging holes, but you're you're what's the word I'm 0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:27.479 looking for, You're zeroing in on something. Yeah, you're kind 0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:30.200 of using process of elimination to like figure out where 0:19:30.240 --> 0:19:33.600 the gold isn't to find out where it maybe is. Yeah, 0:19:34.040 --> 0:19:36.560 digging up dirt, putting it in a pan, swishing the 0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:38.480 water around and seeing how many little flecks are in 0:19:38.520 --> 0:19:41.240 there a hole, and then putting the flag in and Okay, 0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:44.639 this area is depleted, and then by process of elimination 0:19:44.760 --> 0:19:47.679 you find your way to the Mr Pocket. Yeah did 0:19:47.720 --> 0:19:50.280 the Motherload calls it Mr Pockets. So you're working your 0:19:50.280 --> 0:19:51.960 way out and if there's like less gold, you're like, 0:19:51.960 --> 0:19:53.919 all right, let me go back in this direction. But 0:19:54.000 --> 0:19:56.200 you're just digging holes. And that was so cool because 0:19:56.520 --> 0:19:59.320 of course I didn't either. It's really the procedure of 0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:01.320 all this stuff, and it was so like they didn't 0:20:01.320 --> 0:20:03.520 explain it. You just see it. Yeah, Yeah, it's that 0:20:03.600 --> 0:20:06.240 show not tell thing, you know, That's what the Cohens 0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:09.520 are great at Yeah, here's another thirty second spoiler, everyone, 0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:13.240 so tune out for thirty seconds after all that. You 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:17.080 love this character so much and I was so mad 0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:19.760 when that guy shot him and had not worked for 0:20:19.760 --> 0:20:22.400 that goal. But it all worked out great, does work 0:20:22.400 --> 0:20:32.560 out great? All right, we're back from spoilers. Every spoilers. 0:20:32.800 --> 0:20:35.480 And that was less than thirty seconds. I love that 0:20:35.480 --> 0:20:37.359 owl scene too. That was really sweet. Everything about it. 0:20:37.359 --> 0:20:40.119 It's like it starts Tom Waits. It starts Tom Waits 0:20:40.160 --> 0:20:43.280 and an owl and a deer. Yeah, it was just 0:20:43.320 --> 0:20:47.200 so beautiful too, and just so like like you get it, Like, man, 0:20:47.280 --> 0:20:50.000 I could have been a prospector out there by myself. 0:20:50.119 --> 0:20:52.439 I'm beautiful land. Yeah, I think that. I don't. I 0:20:52.440 --> 0:20:54.080 don't know if it had a dog though, Oh yeah, 0:20:54.119 --> 0:20:55.840 for sure. I don't know if he did the cinematography 0:20:55.880 --> 0:20:57.000 for all of them. I kind of feel like maybe 0:20:57.040 --> 0:20:59.359
