Yes, I 92 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 2: mean I reluctantly bring up this film grape only because 93 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 2: I don't want to, Like I always feel like every 94 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 2: time I say anything, I'm calling someone out that I know.

Okay, 101 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: there has been a rash of of this and I'm 102 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 2: and I'm saying this as a person who participates in 103 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 2: this very thing that I have a gripe about, okay, 104 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 2: which is that the time at which the movie starts, 105 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 2: that's published on the website, in the newspaper, on social 106 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 2: media is a lot of the times different than the 107 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 2: actual time the movie starts when you get to the theater. 108 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 2: And it's because these intros are so long. 109 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: Now are you referring to the trailers or the little 110 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: like there's because now it's a mess. There's like trailers, 111 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: that's one segment, but there's also like trivia and Maria 112 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: Minuno's talking to us, you know that type of shit. 113 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm talking about that, plus the actual in person 114 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 2: pomp and circumstance of people who are introducing a movie 115 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 2: doing their own trivia, doing their own games and T 116 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 2: shirt throws and bands. I've seen full bands play before 117 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 2: a movie. 118 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: Now, but are they in person or is this just 119 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: on screen? 120 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 2: It's a mixed bag. A lot of it is in person. 121 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 2: Sometimes it cuts to a zoom and it's like a 122 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 2: pre recorded little ditty. Now I want to make a distinction. Okay, 123 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 2: I actually actually should make a couple of distincts. 124 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: It's number one, okay. 125 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 2: If it's published, it there's a talk before for the 126 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 2: film in some way. It interview a lot, either live 127 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 2: or on a zoom.

This is like part of my job. Right, 132 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 2: If you've prepped me for the idea that there's gonna 133 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 2: be this like long thing before the movie actually starts, 134 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 2: I'm down at a lot of times. I'm going for 135 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 2: that specifically, right. 136 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: It's just these surprise ones that you weren't prepping for 137 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: are the ones that give you the adjuta.

I feel like we could dedicate 170 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: a whole episode to the film Q and A. 171 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 2: Tell me about. 172 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 1: But part of it is that it's just so long, 173 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: and like sometimes these movies, if a movie is over 174 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: two hours and there's additional programming added to it, who 175 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 1: has the stamina and energy to sustain all of that? 176 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: I mean, what a nightmare? 177 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 2: Listen, God, let me tell you right now.

I 185 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 2: was prepared for pomp and circumstance, okay, Like I said, 186 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 2: we were like, okay, so we're good.

We like walked and we sat in the 202 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 2: back and we were just like, oh so there's more trivia. 203 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 2: Oh so there's more you know, personal stories about the 204 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 2: first time you saw this movie. Oh so now there's 205 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 2: like multiple people coming on stage, and there's like all 206 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 2: kinds of like giveaways. There's a person who came up 207 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 2: with a ukulele. I was like, when the ukulele came out, 208 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 2: I was like, we. 209 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 1: Are fucked Ooh yeah, a real harbinger of evil. 210 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 2: Dude. I was like, so that thing that started, damn 211 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 2: near nine o'clock, and I just sat there going Christ 212 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 2: that we're gonna be here till midnight and it is 213 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 2: only Wednesday, like I and I said to myself, like, 214 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 2: this is this has happened to me many times, and 215 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 2: I've got to say something about it, because it is. 216 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, you have a voice, and you need to be 217 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: the voice for the voiceless in this situation. 218 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 3: I think. 219 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 2: So, I mean, is that not that's a great that's 220 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 2: a formidable. 221 00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's great, Ripe. I mean, I think that's what 222 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: people away from the theater in general is that it's 223 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: like I'm gonna you know, you think of watching a 224 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: movie as like winding down time, but if you're doing 225 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: it somewhere outside of your home, you're not really winding down, 226 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: you know. And so I think that puts a lot 227 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: of people off. They want to be at home on 228 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 1: their phone, relaxing, but instead they're bombarded, sabotaged by these 229 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 1: random other events before the movie. It can be too 230 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: taxing for the general public. You know. 231 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 2: It feels very like it's like a felliniesque like uh 232 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 2: modern like theatricals circus, yes, where I'm just like, what 233 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 2: am I watching this? Feels like performance art. I understand 234 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 2: that everyone's here to like be excited about this movie, 235 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 2: but that also like it is really eaten up into 236 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 2: some time totally, and so I just I don't know, 237 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 2: I feel like I need to put foot down. 238 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: Gripe accepted. 239 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 2: Thank you so much. 240 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 1: I'm sorry to hear that. But maybe we can move 241 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: on to something a little bit more positive. Okay, this 242 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: is our film diary, and yet, like we mentioned at top, 243 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: a little bit of a light week. But Millie, would 244 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: you like to start with what you've been watching this 245 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: past week? 246 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:16,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, so listen, you already mentioned we haven't. It's been 247 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 2: a quick turnaround in between episodes, so I gotta I 248 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 2: gotta admit I haven't really watched an actual motion picture 249 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 2: in the past couple of days. However, I did rewatch 250 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 2: a very fascinating, slash comforting docu series. I would call 251 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 2: it a docu series perhaps, but it's not even anywhere 252 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 2: streaming on the platforms, so it also feels like it's 253 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 2: like a very weird thing to watch. But okay, everybody 254 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 2: knows that twenty twenty four was my big K pop 255 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 2: discovery year. Yes, if you listen to my last podcast, 256 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 2: I saw what you did. You probably picked up towards 257 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 2: the end of LASH or the mid to end of 258 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four that I suddenly figured out what K 259 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 2: pop is and I got really into the band. Well, 260 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 2: I got into two bands really. One was a band 261 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 2: called TXT Tomorrow by Together, which I actually saw in concert, 262 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 2: my very first K pop concert, and I was radicalized 263 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 2: by it. But then I ended up getting into BTS 264 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: because quite honestly, the biggest K pop band at least 265 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 2: by American standards or you know wherever world standards, and 266 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 2: a friend of mine, Eddie was is totally responsible for this, 267 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 2: by the way. So I watched this series that they did, 268 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 2: because they have a lot of content, right, Like, when 269 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 2: I'm talking about content, I'm talking about not just like 270 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 2: music videos and interviews and stuff like documentaries. They have 271 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 2: their own web series where they like play games. They're 272 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 2: just they're completely iced out in content, right. But they 273 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 2: did this documentary series called In the Soup and it's 274 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 2: called it's soop not s o up. 275 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: Well. In the Soup is a movie from the early nineties, 276 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: that's right, Steve Chemy, Yeah, and it's a black and 277 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: white artsy movie that was a big hit at Sun 278 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: Dance and it's about a screenwriter in New York. But anyways, 279 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: this is definitely not that. 280 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 2: Although I wish, I only wish that Steve Buchemy hung 281 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 2: out with Bets. That would be quite quite amazing. 282 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: No, this is a lab that would be what a collab. 283 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 2: This is a series. There's actually been two seasons of it, 284 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 2: but it's a series where basically they go on vacation 285 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 2: together to the woods or something interesting. They go. At 286 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 2: least the first season was that they rented some kind 287 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 2: of lake house and it was like they were all 288 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 2: just like chillin' and it was like real, I mean, 289 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 2: you want to talk about Indy. It was like almost 290 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 2: like a minute by minute kind of like let's just 291 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 2: see what like seven friends do. Like there wasn't a 292 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 2: lot going on, and that's I think part of the 293 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 2: charm of it. They were all just like hanging out 294 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 2: in basketball shorts and hoodies and just kind of like 295 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 2: sitting around playing computer games and building legos and cooking 296 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 2: for each other, which is my favorite part of it 297 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 2: because it's very it's nice to watch people cooking for 298 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 2: other people, I realized, but it's very peaceful and it's 299 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 2: very like serene, and you know, it's like, oh, yeah, 300 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 2: here are these like really famous people. But it's like, 301 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 2: I mean, it's just imagine like going on watching Beyonce 302 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 2: go to on vacation or something, just like no makeup 303 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 2: to wearing regular clothes and you're just like oh, and 304 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 2: it is kind of like a I made it if 305 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 2: it feels like a documentary, like a like a minute 306 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 2: by minute direct cinema, if you will. So I know 307 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 2: that's big words, but I'm just saying, but I watched 308 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 2: the first rewatch the first season of it, and it's 309 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 2: lovely and you don't even really have to know anything 310 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 2: about them enjoy it. I feel like. 311 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: So anyway, well, very good for my film diary this week, 312 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: I would say I got very far away from film 313 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: in general. I ended up watching a lot of episodes 314 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: of a little show called Love Is Blind, which I 315 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 1: don't know if people outside of Minneapolis are appreciating on 316 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: the level that I am, but it's a reality TV 317 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 1: show and it's the episodes are kind of long, and 318 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 1: I watched a bunch of them this week, so it 319 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: sort of took over my viewing habits all week long 320 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: and really didn't get around to any films. Besides, the 321 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 1: benches have been a sheeran this week. Have you ever 322 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 1: watched this show? 323 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 4: No? 324 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: What is? 325 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: Why? 326 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 2: Is it a Minneapolis thing? 327 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 4: Though? 328 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: The premise of the show is that you date somebody 329 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,679 Speaker 1: without seeing them. So there's like a guy side and 330 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: a girl's side of this kind of facility, and they 331 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 1: meet in these rooms where there's a screen in between 332 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: them so they can hear each other but they can't talk, 333 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 1: and they get to know, you know, they date several 334 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: women and eventually they propose to somebody without having seen them, 335 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,959 Speaker 1: you know, sight unseen. So that's like the first third 336 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 1: of the season is in these pods, you know. Then 337 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: the last two thirds is they meet the people in 338 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: real life. They have to live together and then get married, 339 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 1: and it takes place in a different city each season, 340 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 1: and it is ridiculous and very silly and horrifying because 341 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: there's always a couple that comes out when they do 342 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: the big reveal of seeing each other for the first time. 343 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 1: You can always tell when people are so turned off 344 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: by how somebody looks like, God, I hate them. Yeah, 345 00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:00,199 Speaker 1: it's sick. It's it's very cringe at times, but it 346 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: is so addicting and awful. And so this season is 347 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: in Minneapolis, and I'm loving all the Minnesota stuff going 348 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: on in it. I've only seen the first six episodes 349 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: by the time of this recording, so waiting to see, 350 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: you know, who ends up with each other. But that 351 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: sort of has taken over my life. And in some 352 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: ways I wouldn't say it's it's it's cinematic. In some 353 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: ways you could say, but. 354 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm thinking it's cinema. 355 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,199 Speaker 1: If there's any other loves Blind viewers that listen to 356 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: this podcast, please write in.

I'm willing 368 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: to embarrass myself on public, on national television, you know, 369 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: so but no go, he didn't sign up for it unfortunately. 370 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 1: But yeah, so that's sort of taken over too. Well, wow, 371 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: look at us just to watching reality TV show instead 372 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: of watching you know, art. But that's okay. 373 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 2: You know that is okay once in a while, you know, 374 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 2: it happens so fabulous. 375 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: Well that's our film diary for this week, moving on 376 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 1: to our main discussion, the benches of Inn Sharon and 377 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: Irish cinema. Now, Millie, I am Irish. My name is 378 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: Casey O'Brien, and I've been to Ireland and I even 379 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 1: kind of studied Irish cinema in college kind of. I 380 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: took a class on Irish cinema and I had a 381 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 1: professor whose specialty was Irish cinema. So I feel like 382 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,439 Speaker 1: I had a little bit more of an informed college 383 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: education on Irish cinema than most people. What what when 384 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 1: you think of Irish cinema, do you have any thoughts 385 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: that go through your head? Millie? 386 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I definitely think of people like Daniel 387 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 2: day Lewis. I think of Colin Ferrell, Martin McDonough, Bretnan Gleeson, 388 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 2: that whole. Yeah, yes, I think of Shersha Ronan. Who huh, 389 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 2: we'll probably talk about a little bit a very long time. 390 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 2: I did not know how to pronounce her first name. 391 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:57,880 Speaker 1: Me neither. 392 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought, I don't even want to take a stab. 393 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 2: I thought it was like so soura around. I don't know, 394 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 2: but yeah, I mean I I honestly I think of 395 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 2: you know, even people like John Houston and stuff, you know, 396 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 2: just like. 397 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, John Houston, he moved to Ireland, I believe, with 398 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 1: Angelica Houston, and he made some films there. 399 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but yeah, I mean, I mean that's 400 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 2: probably real like softball answers that, I mean, like, what 401 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 2: are you what about you? 402 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: Well, you know, it is a small country and they have, 403 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,199 Speaker 1: you know, I would say a smaller film industry, so 404 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: like it is a little bit it's a it's it's 405 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 1: easier to kind of track the big players in that world. 406 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: And I but I feel like, you know, this is 407 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: a very broad generalization, but I feel like when you 408 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: think of Irish movies, Irish cinema, they're often very dark 409 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: and funny and gloomy, and there's usually some sense of 410 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:06,199 Speaker 1: trag and even in the funniest, lightest movies coming out 411 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: of that country. So I feel like when you talk 412 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: about Irish cinema, they do have a very specific vibe 413 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 1: to them. If you've ever been to Ireland, I feel 414 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: like the movies that come from that place are representative 415 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 1: of the people there, you know. 416 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, You're so right about the vibe of 417 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 2: Irish movies. Are the ones that at least I've seen 418 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 2: and really loved. And I feel like you're there is 419 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 2: a dark humor there, there is a darkest They're like 420 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 2: not afraid of going dark. I think that's what I 421 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 2: really admire. And I just kept thinking what country has 422 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 2: like the opposite vibe of that type of cinema, And 423 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,120 Speaker 2: I was like, it's gotta be like Japanese. 424 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 1: That's exactly what I was thinking. Yes, they do have 425 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 1: a very opposite feeling. Like I think about a movie 426 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: like Waking Ned Divine. Have you ever seen that movie, 427 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: Waking Ned Novine. Oh, it's a wonderful movie. It is 428 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 1: from nineteen ninety eight. It's directed by Kirk Jones, and 429 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: it's about this small tat village where someone in the 430 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: town wins the lottery Ned Divine, and they find him 431 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: and he's dead. And the rule is if a person 432 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: dies without cash and a lottery ticket. Nobody gets the 433 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: money goes back into the pool, you know, so basically 434 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,640 Speaker 1: they have to do this whole ruse to pretend this 435 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 1: other guy is ned divine in order to get the money. 436 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: And it's very funny and very sweet, but even that, 437 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: there's like dark It's like about this guy dying, you know, 438 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 1: there's like an element to it where it's like this 439 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 1: is not all you know, sunshine and bubbles, you know, 440 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 1: it's there's still a darkness there to the movie, right. 441 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 2: And like I mean, I'm maybe I need to step 442 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 2: back and say it's not as if Japanese cinema isn't 443 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,959 Speaker 2: sad or deals with heavy subjects. In fact, there's a 444 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 2: lot of sadness and a lot of you know, like 445 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 2: I don't know, I suppose darker subjects, especially in like 446 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 2: Kirousala movies and stuff like that. Like I but I 447 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,439 Speaker 2: think it's the treatment of it. Like I feel like 448 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 2: the way that Japanese cinema at least, you know, through 449 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 2: a specific you know, maybe time period or like if 450 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,959 Speaker 2: you go through like certain decades where the treatment of 451 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 2: the subject is almost kind of like the opposite, whereas 452 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 2: like Irish cinema like just goes for the jug you know, 453 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,360 Speaker 2: really goes for the juggular. It is like doesn't care. 454 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 2: And that's what I love about it. It's just like 455 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 2: going for it. I mean that is like one of 456 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 2: the things about The Banshees of An A Sheeran specifically, 457 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 2: that I really love is that it's just very like 458 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 2: noble shit like this this friendship, the end of this friendship, 459 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 2: which the movie we'll talk about in just a second, 460 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 2: is so dark and so yeah, there's no frills and 461 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 2: there's something that I love about that. And I feel 462 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:14,239 Speaker 2: like if like a in a different country, perhaps like 463 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 2: somewhere like Japan, if you took that same plot line, 464 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 2: it would just be expressed just more tenderly. 465 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,199 Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, I feel like there's like a 466 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 1: messiness to Irish movies. I don't know if that's the 467 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: right word, where it's like really in the muck of 468 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: like it really goes there. It really is like totally 469 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 1: fine sitting in this like supreme darkness.

They have like a routine, and 510 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, to have someone that close to 511 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: you in your life be like, I actually just don't 512 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: want to see you anymore, and I don't really have 513 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 1: a reason, I just don't. That is scary to me, 514 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: and it is dark and frightening. 515 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, let's let's unpack this a little bit, because, 516 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 2: first of all, I absolutely was obsessed with this movie 517 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 2: when it came out. 518 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: Me too, I really loved this movie when it came out. 519 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was a huge in Bruges fan. So which 520 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 2: is the movie that they were in prior? 521 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just have to say that the director, writer 522 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 1: and director, Martin McDonough, he did in Bruses, He also 523 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: did Three Billboards outside of Ebbing, Missouri. You know, I 524 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: did not like either of those movies that much. I 525 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: didn't find I didn't like In Bruges that much. I didn't. 526 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. I thought it was trying to be 527 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: too I just didn't. I didn't vibe with it. I 528 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: can't explain why. Just didn't think it was funny or something. 529 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: But this I was absolutely I absolutely was head over 530 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: heels for this one. 531 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I loved In Bruges. I am one of 532 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 2: probably the only people that actually liked Three Billboards when 533 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 2: it came out, Like a lot of people had problems 534 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 2: with it, but this one is definitely my fave.

Why I'll change? 580 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: What do you need? You know? And it's like, I 581 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 1: don't know, just to have someone like I think that's 582 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 1: like a deep seated fear to feel. I mean, it's 583 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: kind of like invasion of the body Snatchers. It's kind 584 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 1: of like you turn around and all of a sudden, 585 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: the person doesn't No, you don't know the person you've 586 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 1: been so close to, you know. 587 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 2: Okay, so this is I think, like what I wanted 588 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 2: to unpack maybe about this, maybe you know, is where 589 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 2: like when you think about the movie and you think 590 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 2: about the dynamic between these two characters, right, yeah, you're 591 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 2: obviously you seem like you're obviously more afraid of the 592 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 2: scenario of being like cut off, right because obviously it's 593 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 2: it's huge. It's a huge it's like a breakup, and 594 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 2: it's even worse than a breakup. 595 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: It's worse. 596 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 2: Breaking up with friends is so fucking painful, like the worst. 597 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 1: Right yeah, because there isn't really a structure for that. 598 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 1: If you say to your you know, significant other, I 599 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: want to break up, they know what that means immediately. 600 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: But there's no there's no way to really break up 601 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 1: with a friend other than being like, go away, I 602 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: don't want to see you ever again, And I don't know, 603 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 1: there's not a language for that. 604 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 2: I guess, Well, but then I guess my question is 605 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 2: that it could you do that? Could you do the opposite? 606 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 2: Could you be the one that like walks away from someone? 607 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: I think so, I mean, but the thing that's frustrating 608 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 1: about the movie is he's just like, spending time with 609 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 1: you is a waste and I don't want to waste 610 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 1: any more time, you know. And huh, yeah, I feel 611 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: like if I were to walk away from someone, it 612 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: would have to be like, you are causing pain in 613 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 1: my life and I can't be around you. And maybe 614 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: Colin Farrell's character is causing pain in Brendan Gleeson's life, 615 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: but I don't, I don't know. I would have to 616 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 1: I think if I were to be the one who 617 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 1: broke up with somebody who broke up with a friend, 618 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,919 Speaker 1: it would have to be for like a more specific 619 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 1: reason than Brendan Gleeson gives in this movie. You know. 620 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, see that's interesting. 621 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: I see Pilie is trying to figure out how to 622 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 1: cut me out of her life, so that's why she's 623 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 1: interrogating me. 624 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm writing all this down because I am 625 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,879 Speaker 2: just going to disappear. Yeah, I'm never going to give 626 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 2: you a reason. 627 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 1: Oh no, I I think, I. 628 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 2: Don't know, I just think about me. I when I 629 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 2: was younger, I think the idea of losing friends was 630 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 2: so super painful, like just so super painful. I wanted 631 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 2: to be liked really badly by people. I think I 632 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 2: probably had some like you know, codependency in service regards 633 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 2: when it comes to you know, just friends and this 634 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 2: kind of stuff because I was young, and I I 635 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 2: don't know, I just idealized so many things. Yeah, as 636 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 2: I've gotten older, I think I've begun to understand like solitude. 637 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 2: To be honest, I've begun to understand solitude, and I've 638 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 2: begun to understand the idea that, like people change, things change. 639 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 2: I'm not as scared too, And I'm not saying like 640 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm like this, you know, fortified fortress on 641 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,399 Speaker 2: an island. I'm not like Alcatraz or anything emotionally. I'm 642 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 2: just saying I understand it more. Because when I watched 643 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 2: this movie, I was thinking, I was actually like looking 644 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 2: at the Brendan Gleason character, going, this guy has a 645 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 2: different energy than this guy. Right, Colin Ferrell seems very 646 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 2: I don't want to say simple, maybe simple is not 647 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 2: the word, but he seems very like just like a 648 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 2: hard just yes, very earnest, you know, maybe not like 649 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 2: happy happy. I mean, this is Ireland for crying out loud, 650 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:31,400 Speaker 2: but you know, like kind of just more like living 651 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 2: in the moment. He's not like mulling over like deep things. 652 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 2: You know. He just wants to have a beer at 653 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 2: the pub with his friends and just like hang out 654 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 2: with his donkey and fucking be a simple dude, right. 655 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 2: I feel like that Brennan Gleeson is the opposite. He's like, 656 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 2: I'm all I want to do is just be by 657 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,760 Speaker 2: goth fucking self. I want to sit around and ponder 658 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 2: the meaning of life. And I just feel like my 659 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 2: energy has changed and I just can't hang out with 660 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 2: this Dodo friend of mine anymore. And I don't want 661 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 2: to tell him why. I want to be, you know, 662 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 2: very mysterious about that, and that should. 663 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: Be fine, yes, But I think the maybe I'm the simple, 664 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 1: you know, edited one in my own life. But I uh, 665 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 1: I do think Martin McDonough's movies are very about men 666 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 1: a lot of times. Yeah, And I think Brendan Gleeson's 667 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: character does something that like men do, which is be 668 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 1: super dramatic and black and white and kind of like 669 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 1: he couldn't just communicate to Colin Ferrell, Hey, I want 670 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:46,879 Speaker 1: to be goth and be alone. Yeah, he said to him, 671 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: I don't want to be your friend anymore, which is 672 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: like two separate things. And he couldn't just be like, hey, 673 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 1: how do we how about we meet once a week 674 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 1: instead of every fucking day, you know, and maybe that 675 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:04,759 Speaker 1: would have solved the problem first, but no, instead he 676 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: goes right, He's like, I want to be alone, and 677 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 1: the way to do that is to cut off my 678 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: finger to show him how serious I want to be alone. 679 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 2: You know, well I think you could really if you 680 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 2: really want to reduce it down to it's like simplest form.

And it's also this 707 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 1: takes place in a small village where I think people 708 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: idealize small town life a lot. I know my grandparents 709 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,880 Speaker 1: who grew up in you know, small town Iowa, were 710 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 1: very excited to move to the Twin Cities because they 711 00:39:56,960 --> 00:40:00,720 Speaker 1: were tired of everyone knowing their fucking business all the time. 712 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 1: You know, like you can be much more anonymous and 713 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,319 Speaker 1: a larger and you can be much more alone in 714 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,720 Speaker 1: a like a larger city, when you're in this small village. 715 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: It's like he can't he can't be alone really because 716 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: people will just come up and knock on his goddamn 717 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 1: door all hours of the day. So I relate to 718 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 1: that too well. 719 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 2: And this is like the beauty of this movie. And 720 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:28,319 Speaker 2: I feel like why it, like is an Irish classic, Yes, 721 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 2: in a lot of ways, is that because it is, 722 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 2: you will feel the confinement, like it's actually not a 723 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 2: confining place, right, it's on the coast. It's beautiful. 724 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: It's like exvansive seventy milimeter got it. 725 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, it could have been a seventy mili movie for sure. 726 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 2: But I but that's the thing is that it's like, 727 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 2: even though it's in this beautiful, serene environment, it also 728 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 2: feels like isolated and closed off, which really is like 729 00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:00,080 Speaker 2: a part of the story about how hard it is 730 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 2: to even think about not talking to somebody in town 731 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,799 Speaker 2: because there ain't a lot of people in town. And 732 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,919 Speaker 2: you know, again, I think that's what makes this movie 733 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 2: hit for me, is that it is like the the 734 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 2: place that it's being shot at, the clothes which they're 735 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:18,360 Speaker 2: always wearing, Like it's like a lot of like fucking 736 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 2: wool oiled double boiled wool coats and slacks. You know, 737 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 2: I absolutely am obsessed with the sister. 738 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 1: Oh she was incredible. Oh man, I mean touch upon that. 739 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 1: But she's trying to leave the damn island right Like. 740 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, she's trying to leave, and the ways in which 741 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 2: she like, she just she's the one that like cuts 742 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 2: all these guys to the bone. And I fucking love 743 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 2: it so much. Yes, like will read you to filth. 744 00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 2: It kind of sets up this whole like town that 745 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 2: they live in as being this like there's a lot 746 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 2: of characters. 747 00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 1: I mean, this could have been a TV show. I 748 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 1: like it really could. I I don't say that about 749 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:06,880 Speaker 1: a lot of movies, but this was a fun world 750 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 1: to explore, you know, and I wanted to live in 751 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 1: it more too. 752 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 2: I just love to me this is like I know 753 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 2: that if we've decided to create a letterbox list about this, 754 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:24,359 Speaker 2: it would go off the rails very quickly. In fact, 755 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,680 Speaker 2: I'm probably I'm sure there's probably already multiple lists, but 756 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 2: this is like one of the most goth movies I've 757 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 2: ever seen, like and not goth isn't.

But you know grant Land. I 855 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 2: was such a huge fan of the people who wrote 856 00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:46,719 Speaker 2: for Grantland, and then I kind of have like been 857 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:50,320 Speaker 2: a nerd about following them into their other ventures post 858 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,840 Speaker 2: grant Land. But he wrote this book about Kanu Reeves. 859 00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:57,439 Speaker 2: It's kind of just like a treaty on uh being 860 00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 2: into him. Anyway, I gave that book away for Christmas. 861 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 2: I think I actually sent one to Danielle for Christmas. Danielle, 862 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 2: my former co host. If I saw what you didn't, 863 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 2: But anyway, so when I think about your question, and 864 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:13,880 Speaker 2: I think about, like, if I had to redo my 865 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:16,359 Speaker 2: entire strategy of getting into Keanu Reeves and like going 866 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:19,319 Speaker 2: through his filmography, here's what I would do. I would 867 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:24,080 Speaker 2: actually start with his newer stuff first, so I would go, 868 00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 2: you know, hit those John Wicks real hard. I would 869 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:34,400 Speaker 2: do definitely do a John Wicks series. I would go into. 870 00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I would do like a little forty seven 871 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:41,719 Speaker 2: rown in I would do. I would definitely do Destination 872 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:44,719 Speaker 2: Wedding and always be my maybe like you just those 873 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:50,880 Speaker 2: are just such like weird romantic late period romantic comedy 874 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 2: blips for Keanu that I just feel like are so irresistible, 875 00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:58,919 Speaker 2: and I'm just like you got like seeing him kind 876 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,080 Speaker 2: of play himself. I know it's like you're not gonna 877 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:03,520 Speaker 2: get it if you're not into Keanu Reeves. You're kind 878 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:07,360 Speaker 2: of like, should I should I start with his more 879 00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 2: like self reflexive, ironic Keanu Reeves, knowing he's Keanu Reeves roles, 880 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:18,400 Speaker 2: I say, yes, why the fuck not? But then I 881 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 2: would do that. Then I would go to the beginning. 882 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 2: Then I would do River's Edge first, and foremost I 883 00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:33,840 Speaker 2: would do like you know, Bill and Ted point break, 884 00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:39,200 Speaker 2: my own private Idaho type of stuff. And then so 885 00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:40,880 Speaker 2: I would just do the weird thing where it'd be 886 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:46,160 Speaker 2: like newer movies first, then older movies, then the mid 887 00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:50,400 Speaker 2: period of his absolute fame. Then I would do matrix, 888 00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:55,400 Speaker 2: you know, speed Johnny Mnemonic. 889 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 1: Does that make love Johnny Mnemonic? See? Yeah, that makes 890 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:04,319 Speaker 1: total sense. He is he has had so many different careers, 891 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:06,800 Speaker 1: you know, because at first, I feel like he was 892 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:10,760 Speaker 1: kind of action surfer dude, and I'm just gonna include 893 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:13,879 Speaker 1: Bill and Ted in that category. Like there's like action 894 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 1: surfer dude, Bill and Ted Speed Point Break that's kind 895 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:23,200 Speaker 1: of its own thing. Then there was like dramatic Keanu, 896 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,879 Speaker 1: and I would put maybe Bram Stoker and like him 897 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 1: doing like The Devil's Advocate and those types of movies. 898 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:32,799 Speaker 1: And then there's like sci fi Keanu, which is like 899 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 1: the matrix in Johnny Nuemonic. So it's it's so hard 900 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:40,800 Speaker 1: like to how to navigate. He is kind of tricky 901 00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:42,839 Speaker 1: to navigate because it's like, if you're like not into 902 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 1: sci fi, there's a huge chunk of his movies you 903 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:46,440 Speaker 1: might not be into, you know. 904 00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:50,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, so well, and like and I think it makes sense. 905 00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:53,680 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm gonna I'm gonna politic and this from 906 00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 2: my way, my method, only because I feel like he's 907 00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:01,759 Speaker 2: the kind of actor who's had a long enough career 908 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:05,520 Speaker 2: and has had all these iterations like you say, to 909 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:10,239 Speaker 2: where it would I think it's fun. And again, maybe 910 00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 2: those are my own personal viewing habits where I like 911 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:14,840 Speaker 2: a lot of older movies, and there's a lot of 912 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 2: times where I've watched newer movies by older actors not 913 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,360 Speaker 2: knowing that they were in older movies, and then going 914 00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:25,479 Speaker 2: back to see those older movies being like, Oh my god, 915 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 2: isn't it so cute how young they were. So that's 916 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,400 Speaker 2: kind of like if you're not really into Keanu Reeves, 917 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't understand how that's possible, but whatever, 918 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:37,520 Speaker 2: Like and you were to watch, yeah, the newer like 919 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:39,879 Speaker 2: if you were to watch john Wick one through four 920 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:41,799 Speaker 2: and then you were like, oh, fuck, I gotta go 921 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 2: watch River's Edge.

How can one really appreciate a testicle monster? 997 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 1: And you know, I think my answer for appreciating this movie, 998 00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:51,600 Speaker 1: or like explaining what it means is when you see 999 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:55,239 Speaker 1: the testical monster, how did that make you feel? And 1000 00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 1: I think however that made you feel is the correct 1001 00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,960 Speaker 1: response to how you felt about this movie. 1002 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:06,440 Speaker 2: So sometimes, you know, I'll just say from my experience, 1003 00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:07,800 Speaker 2: I have sometimes. 1004 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 1: I have the patience for art, yes, in that way. 1005 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:15,399 Speaker 2: And when I say art, I meaning like capital a art, 1006 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:20,600 Speaker 2: you know of like over ambition, thought, experience things of 1007 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:25,400 Speaker 2: this nature like like again, like sometimes I have an 1008 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 2: appreciation for these things, for exercises in you know, just weirdness, 1009 00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:36,360 Speaker 2: I guess, and for some reason, like I had a 1010 00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:38,440 Speaker 2: little bit of attention for it when I saw it 1011 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 2: in the theater. I will say that the like last 1012 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 2: two thirds of the movie was grueling. The mom section 1013 00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:49,640 Speaker 2: was grueling. It almost felt like we were, you know, 1014 00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:52,000 Speaker 2: at the hardest part of the soul cycle class where 1015 00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 2: you're just like doing the really hard climb and you're 1016 00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 2: just like really your hardest pounding and you're just like, 1017 00:57:56,760 --> 00:57:57,960 Speaker 2: oh my god, I can't wait for this shit to 1018 00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:00,160 Speaker 2: be over with so I can go to Smoothie.

And uh, but at the 1020 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:04,919 Speaker 2: end of it, I did feel like I went through 1021 00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:07,320 Speaker 2: some ship, which is like, yeah. 1022 00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 1: You know, like something the director already Astor described it 1023 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 1: as a Jewish Lord of the Rings. So and this 1024 00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:19,560 Speaker 1: was definitely his like, as they say, blank check movie 1025 00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:21,760 Speaker 1: where he had two huge hits and he was kind 1026 00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 1: of able to make whatever he wanted, and he certainly did. 1027 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:28,680 Speaker 1: There didn't feel like there was any editing or censorship 1028 00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:33,600 Speaker 1: of any ideas on that movie. I'm I still think 1029 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:37,240 Speaker 1: about that movie. It's like upsetting and. 1030 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:40,200 Speaker 2: I'll probably never see it again. 1031 00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 1: I watched that movie while feeding my newborn baby. That's 1032 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 1: and that sort of steered into my mind too. 1033 00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:53,320 Speaker 2: Yeah.

I think they have to 1168 01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:21,960 Speaker 1: do the song for the thing is that song Falling 1169 01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:25,320 Speaker 1: Slowly is so good in that movie. I felt like 1170 01:06:25,360 --> 01:06:27,640 Speaker 1: it was like I was like whoa. It was like 1171 01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:30,200 Speaker 1: the music is good, and sometimes it's hard in movies 1172 01:06:30,240 --> 01:06:33,360 Speaker 1: for the music to be Like movies about musicians, it's 1173 01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:35,600 Speaker 1: like it's not a guarantee the music is gonna be good, 1174 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:36,120 Speaker 1: you know. 1175 01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:41,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, get the whoever wrote the Shallow Shallow Shallow song, 1176 01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:46,440 Speaker 2: huh my favorite song of the decade, and just get like, 1177 01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:49,000 Speaker 2: somebody's gotta come up with a really good ballot.

I 1182 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:03,480 Speaker 2: just don't anyway. Bottom line is, that's my recommendation. Let's 1183 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:06,040 Speaker 2: watch once again and see if it's still good, see 1184 01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:08,440 Speaker 2: if we still cry. 1185 01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 1: Excellent choice. I love that movie. I that's worth a revisit. 1186 01:07:13,040 --> 01:07:15,440 Speaker 1: The movie I'm going to recommend is a nineteen ninety 1187 01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:20,600 Speaker 1: seven film, an Irish film called The Butcher Boy. It 1188 01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:24,480 Speaker 1: was directed by Neil Jordan and it is about kind 1189 01:07:24,520 --> 01:07:31,400 Speaker 1: of a a boy who has a is mentally unwell. 1190 01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:35,320 Speaker 1: He has a violent fantasy world he kind of escapes to, 1191 01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:41,880 Speaker 1: and his sense of reality really starts to disintegrate. There's 1192 01:07:41,880 --> 01:07:46,040 Speaker 1: a lot of like interesting fantastical elements to it, but 1193 01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:50,680 Speaker 1: it's also funny and violent and kind of freaky. And 1194 01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:57,320 Speaker 1: you mentioned her earlier. Sneide O'Connor plays the Virgin Mary 1195 01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:02,320 Speaker 1: in it, and uh, it's it's really cool to see 1196 01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:05,960 Speaker 1: her in this movie. And so I highly recommend Butcher 1197 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 1: Boy by Neil Jordan. 1198 01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:11,720 Speaker 2: Hey, pretty good.
