Thanks for coming with your friends. Brave. Yeah, 53 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: imagine not listening to a podcast. Unbelievable. No, that's fine. 54 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: So we will uh sort of break down how how 55 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: we run the show before we start. So we are 56 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: a podcast about how women are portrayed in famous movies, 57 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: and we use the Bechdel Test as a jumping off 58 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: point for that discussion. So Bechdel test is a test 59 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: invented by illustrator, writer, general amazing person Alison Bechdel and 60 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: Kay and break it down for us. It requires that 61 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: a movie, let's say, has two female at least two 62 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: female identifying characters. They must speak to each other for 63 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: at least two lines of dialogue, very low bar, and 64 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,119 Speaker 1: their conversation cannot be about men. But guess what. Most 65 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: movies don't pass. But today's movie. You're not supposed to 66 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: tell that. Now there, I didn't say anything, but today's 67 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: it's not. This movie remains to be seen. But I 68 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: don't know. I have a good feeling about it, do you. Okay, 69 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: let's test it out because I do. Oh no, wait, 70 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: this isn't going to pass the vital test. Let's just 71 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 1: have dialogue for a moment. Okay? There Sometimes when it's 72 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: usually a man not to put anyone in a box. 73 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: But if someone asked me about the podcast and it's 74 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: like a guy, he's like, so, yeah, it's what it's 75 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: like a show and you you talk about whether the 76 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: pass is the Betel test or not. I was like, 77 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: that would be a very short show. They would just 78 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: be a word yes or no yes uh. And they're 79 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: like so yeah, that's uh, that's pretty cool. What are 80 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: you doing? Yeah, listening to Tenna. Yeah, it's just so 81 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: you guys talk about for like what three hours about 82 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: if it passes the Pecktel tests or not pretty cool. Yeah, 83 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: it's a little bit of that, but it's a lot more, 84 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: you know, you guys know, Yeah, if you've heard of 85 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: the Becktel says, you know, it's a flawed metric. What 86 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: was the one? Oh we did miss congeniality? And there's 87 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: something that passes the Backtel test, which is literally Candice 88 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: Bergen threatening to murder Sandra Bullock. But it passes because 89 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: woman on woman murder. It passes the Bechtel test and 90 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: we're okay with it. But that's not the movie we're 91 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: talking about today. No, I'm so excited for the movie 92 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: we're talking about today.

Thank 124 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: you so much for asking that my really honestly, because 125 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: we were talking about it before a little bit, because 126 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: you didn't watch it, like when it came out, because 127 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: I think that's the classics. I'm sure if I watched 128 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: it now for the first time, I would be like 129 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: and even rewatching and I was like, oh my god, 130 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: you know, but I remember so distinctly when it came 131 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 1: out and I was like twelve or something like that, 132 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: not to age myself, but I am thirteen, and um 133 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: now like rewatching, it's like I'm just immediately transported back 134 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: to like hanging with my friend Molly, like you know, 135 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: just like im alone, and then watched The Princess Sarius, 136 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: which is not what you're supposed to do. But I 137 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: learned a lot and I grew. Yeah, I just remember 138 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: because it was like, she has hair like me, and 139 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 1: it was the first time I had seen someone with 140 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 1: hair like me. And then we soon find out it's 141 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: what's keeping her from being a lady. So then they 142 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: strained her hair and plug her eyebrows, and I was like, 143 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: is that how I would look? And then I was like, no, 144 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: I'm still fat. So I was okay, come on, I was. 145 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: I was a fat kid, and I think that that's 146 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 1: why I'm like interesting as a person. So if you 147 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: were a skinny kid who's still skinny, you're not relatable. Um, 148 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,679 Speaker 1: if you've been hot your whole life, then you're just 149 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: you're probably not here on it. So you're probably not here, 150 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: you're not watching movies, you're listener base. Yeah, out on 151 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,079 Speaker 1: a boat somewhere. And I hope it's not offensive, but 152 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 1: I would wager to say that lifelong hotties are not 153 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: spectel cast target. There's you're going to get an email 154 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: from like Giselle and she's like, I actually love your podcast. Wow. 155 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: Please anyone who's always been devastatingly hot hit us. Let 156 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: us know, does it pass the Bechtel if the two 157 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: women are extremely hot, because then there's zero movies there's well, 158 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: because this movie does pass the Bechdel. Oh wait, we 159 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 1: haven't gotten there yet, I guess. But this movie possibly 160 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: passes the Bechtel, but I was thinking, I was like, 161 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: in the two women scenes, there's a lot of talk 162 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: of like country and duty, which is like not like 163 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: a man, but there's also just mostly talk about the 164 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: dead dad. Then the rest of it is just like 165 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: women critiquing other women's look. So does that pass the 166 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: back door because technically you're not talking about men, but 167 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: like half the movie is just them being like all right, 168 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: spin No, there's like three different characters who make a 169 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 1: wretching noise and looking at Anne.

I guess you all 220 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: saw in two thousand one Bragg for you, But I 221 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 1: have no emotional attachment to this movie. And the soundtrack 222 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: is bad. There is a song where it's just like 223 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: running away with my emotions or something like stupid. How 224 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: are you supposed to know how to feel?

And then 238 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: I realized because someone I forget who, and I'm so sorry. 239 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: But somebody said about bringing on the movie as well, 240 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 1: that there's a bunch of movies that came out around 241 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: this time where like basically she should really just be 242 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: a lesbian with her friend Lillian. They can't allow that 243 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: to mainstream Hollywood, so they write this whole brother character 244 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 1: that like looks like her, hangs around all the time 245 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: and it's like acceptable to hook up with basically, but 246 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: the whole movie is like Lillian and her should just 247 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: like end up together, but instead she's like, I love 248 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: your brother, like you know, and then the brothers like 249 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: obsessed with her too.

But here's the thing. 332 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: The country of Genovia will cease to exist if she 333 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: does not accept her role as princess. Yes that they 334 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: say it's so because I paused at that point, because 335 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: I then I stared at the screen for like five seconds. 336 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: Because the way that it's delivered is Julie Andrews is 337 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: talking to the mom character and she's like, and the 338 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: drama is like, if she doesn't do this, Genovia ceases 339 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 1: to exist, and the mom's like, your country ceases to 340 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 1: exist if my fifteen year old doesn't become a princess, 341 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: and Julianne just like, yeah, pretty much, yeah, so like 342 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: no pressure anything because like my love is unconditional, but 343 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: like it's a pretty big deal and where is the 344 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: clause and I don't know any royal line that where 345 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: that works. Where just all of a sudden, they're like, 346 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: I feel like they would just have to like have 347 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: an election, which would probably better Prime minister colonialism, yes, 348 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: Prime minister, and the prime Minister sucks the teet of 349 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 1: the regal power. Yeah, they know there's a lot of 350 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 1: colonial is. Like obviously, whenever the fifties referendum happened in Europe, 351 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 1: Genovia was like, we're good. I don't even know the 352 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: like they're part of it. Way before Yeah, I don't 353 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 1: even think they're part of the EU, Like I don't 354 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,959 Speaker 1: know what's going on with Genovia, but they're in isolation 355 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: as nation. Um Okay. So then there's an annual Independence 356 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: Day ball it's coming up, and that's when Mia has 357 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: to decide whether or not she's going to be the 358 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: Princess of Genovia.

Okay, So 483 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 1: now we're at the ball at the end and hath 484 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: Away shows up and she's like, I will be princess 485 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: after all, and everyone's like cool, very last man because 486 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: she gets caught in the rain because her car sucks 487 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: super pays off. She's like, I mean that was I 488 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: guess the whole point of the car plot you're read. 489 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: I just kind of put that together where they're okay, 490 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: so we're gonna do this whole thing where she's like 491 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,959 Speaker 1: obsessed with this car that keeps breaking down. Then at 492 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: the end it will break down and someone's like perfect. 493 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: But there's also a super expensive looking trolley accident that 494 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: scared me from getting a driver. Literally right now, I 495 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 1: still don't have one. It's so scary. Movies have effect 496 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: movies there. Yeah, and she's like fifteen. Remember they even 497 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: have her break the law. She drives on her own 498 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: and she's like, is this guys, I'm not driving with 499 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: a license driver. And at the time, I was like 500 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: twelve being like, yeah, bad morals this movie. They're like 501 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: give up your life because the mom is like, I 502 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: didn't want to tell you were a princess because like 503 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: these institutions are patriarch like. She doesn't say that, but 504 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: she's basically like, I would be totally controlled by your 505 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,959 Speaker 1: father and I didn't want that. And like I remember 506 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: when I was twelve being like, what a selfish bit. Yeah, okay, 507 00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: so that's pretty much the story. She's like, yeah, I'm 508 00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: a princess. No, and she speech she drops on a 509 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: high school for real, I know that's what happens. At 510 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: the end, she's like because that's the whole deal, the 511 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: whole time. And she's like because remember when she first 512 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 1: meets Julie Andrew's character, she's like, okay, so like blah 513 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: blah blah, A long story short, you're a princess. You 514 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: have to move to Genovia And she's like, I also 515 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 1: like should they say? She says like, I have tutors, 516 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: but it's like you're gonna have a g e d 517 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: like you're gonna like not a real gonna be Lindsay 518 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: Lohan and Micano. It's like you are not off for 519 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 1: a good path. Yeah, just tell a fifteen year old like, 520 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 1: your life is set. We are obviously rich. I will 521 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: drive you to school in a limo. You can bring 522 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: your cat, but not your mother. Yeah, you can bring 523 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: your cat, absolutely, but your mom is like kind of 524 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: a hippie freak. So the answer is no. No sleds 525 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: in Genovia. I just remember too, like their place, like 526 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: they're loft. You're like, does the mom pay that on 527 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: her artists, on her balloon art? I don't know. Although 528 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 1: the balloon scene another scene that Caitlin correctly argues does 529 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: not need to be there. However, I another great scene 530 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: and where I wanted to do that with I want. 531 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: I was like, man, having a fun mom seems great, 532 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 1: but it's also implying that fun moms are rich and 533 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 1: that bad artists are rich, and which is neither is true. 534 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 1: I can afford San Francisco. Like, that's like a billion 535 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: square foot apart I mean that is a million dollar apartment. 536 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 1: Like that's crazy with a fire poll your BEDROOMA keeps 537 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: hiding in her various rooms from her privilege, which is wild. 538 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: And on that note, I think we should maybe take 539 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 1: a bit of a break. I tend to agree, all right, 540 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: So what do we want to jump in with the discussion. 541 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. Well, okay, so this movie 542 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: has a ton of women in it. Sandra, Oh is 543 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: in this movie? This as the principal Sandra, yeah, very yeah, 544 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 1: Oh my god.

Jamie got 547 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: a fresh drink for the listeners at home. Because in 548 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 1: New York you don't have to drive, so and I 549 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 1: don't drive even in l A. Yeah, it's good for 550 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,840 Speaker 1: you because of this movie that traumatizes you with that accident. 551 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. They kind of make it seem like being 552 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 1: hit by a trolley is like nb D Like she 553 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:49,359 Speaker 1: like she talks to the cop and she's like, it's 554 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,359 Speaker 1: totally no problem if you give me a ticket. But 555 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 1: I'm about to night you. And he's like, I guess 556 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: I won't give you a ticket. A cool hack for 557 00:34:56,080 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: all of us, really, I should do. Yeah, one's ever 558 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: heard of Genovia in San Francisco. But so you can 559 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 1: just be like, hey, I'm actually a queen and you're 560 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 1: you're awesome, and then you can just get out of 561 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 1: And if the cop is like, I know that's from 562 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: the movie Princess Diaries, I'd be like, oh my god, 563 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 1: that's for you. Also, do you want to date me? 564 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 1: There are a lot of women. There's some ton of women. 565 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: No father figures really well, not a strong dead father figure, 566 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 1: which they talk about all the time. They're obsessed with Philip. 567 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 1: When I wrote down his full name, Philippe Lenaldies, and 568 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,399 Speaker 1: they do like a French accent and some a Greek 569 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: accent and part of the name like it's worth it's 570 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: worth mentioning in the books he is alive, her father 571 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 1: is alive, and the grandma is way meaner. But yeah, 572 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: they make kind of a reverse Disney move in the 573 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: case of this movie and kill the dad because that's 574 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,759 Speaker 1: not what happens in the book and the grandfather and 575 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,359 Speaker 1: they killed it. Okay, So this is something that hit 576 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 1: for me. I've seen this movie honestly, probably a hundred times, 577 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 1: and the first time I noticed they mentioned how recently 578 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,879 Speaker 1: both the father and the grandfather have passed away and 579 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,359 Speaker 1: kind of her like, but it's not a big piece, 580 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: Oh my god. And they don't really say how he died. 581 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 1: But there's one part in the movie where they grandma 582 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 1: just goes and that terrible accidents, but she just she's like, 583 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 1: she's my closest family members recently die, my son, I know, 584 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: my son and my husband. Like they say that her 585 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 1: husband died less than a year ago. We really and 586 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: she's already with the driver like they were. That's a 587 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 1: Joe chill out there when he imagined, like your husband 588 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: of a thousand years died like six months ago, and 589 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, your bodyguard is like corners 590 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: and was like you've been wearing black for too long. 591 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 1: I know, Oh my god, I forgot about That Actually 592 00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 1: makes sense to me, because like if you've been married 593 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 1: for a long time and like you're like royalty, like 594 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,359 Speaker 1: you're not fucking, and like, you know, like he was 595 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: always I feel like they were already fucking. But if 596 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: they weren't true, we don't know. If they weren't, then 597 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: he was just like finally, like your husband, who you're 598 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: not sucking, is dead, So can we just get on 599 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: with this, and then her son dies and he's like, well, 600 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: this is a road bump, you know. I mean, like 601 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: everyone deals with grief differently, but Julie Andrews deals with 602 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,720 Speaker 1: losing arguably probably the two biggest people in her life 603 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: by calling her granddaughter ugly. Yes, that's talking her granddaughter ugly, sledge, 604 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 1: shaming her for going to the beach almost giving brink 605 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 1: of foot, Yes, can we talk about them? The makeover scene. Yes, 606 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,839 Speaker 1: So this, like many movies, there's a woman who's not 607 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,240 Speaker 1: conventionally attractive enough, even though she's played by an actress 608 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: who was conventionally attractive, and they're like, we gotta make 609 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 1: you hot for reasons, and then and then the makeover happens. 610 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 1: And in this movie, I feel like there's a slight 611 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 1: subversion because then her friend Lily is like, you're destroying 612 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:20,400 Speaker 1: someone is supposed to be the bad guy in that scene. 613 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,319 Speaker 1: She's supposed to be, because then like the brother is like, no, 614 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: you're hot, because like Lily's like, you're only here because 615 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 1: we can't fuck. Yeah, she should have said that to 616 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 1: him in that scene. And then we're supposed to be 617 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: mad at Lily because then Mia wears a hideous felt 618 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 1: hat to school horrible. The one thing that actually made 619 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:43,879 Speaker 1: Anne Hathway look kind of ugly in the whole movie 620 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,919 Speaker 1: was that they felt hat, but she continues to wear 621 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 1: it's just a hat. But then like the guy her 622 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 1: speech teacher who her mom is fucking, which is also 623 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: from the book but has no bearing on the movie, 624 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: they throw it in just to be like, by the way, 625 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: we're sucking, but we didn't write it any sex positive movie. 626 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 1: I think, well, but I also think this movie goes 627 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: out of its way to make sure you know any 628 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,400 Speaker 1: woman who single at any point in this movie is 629 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 1: a heterosexual woman. Like it goes out of its way 630 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: to tell you, because otherwise, why say that the mom's 631 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 1: having sex with anyone? Every scene the mom is talking 632 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:21,279 Speaker 1: about who she's fucking, who she sucked in the seventies, 633 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: her dad, because I was looking for, like just the 634 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 1: Bechtel aspect. And then it's like every time the mom 635 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: walks in, she's like, your mom is getting in it. 636 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 1: She's like, mom, my teacher, mom my dad in the seventies, 637 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: mom a different man in the seventies, and her mom's like, 638 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 1: let's dark, yeah, what are you fifteen? So in that scene. 639 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,399 Speaker 1: So Lily's all like, oh, you used to care more 640 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 1: about like what was in your head than what was 641 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: on it, And you can kind of get behind what 642 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 1: she's saying, but also she is judging a woman for 643 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,279 Speaker 1: how she looks, and it's just a blowout. I mean 644 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 1: seriously used to care of. I mean like, I've gotten 645 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,439 Speaker 1: my hair straightened four times in my life. It took 646 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 1: seven hours, and every time I do it, like some 647 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:17,800 Speaker 1: of my closest friends would just walk right past and 648 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 1: they don't even recognize me as a curly haired person 649 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 1: who's not trying to straighten their hair every day. It's like, 650 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: just let her have a day of silky smoothness. You know, 651 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: I did it in high school. I did it for 652 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 1: two hours every morning in high school and straightened my hair. 653 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 1: And still people from high school are like, oh, you used, 654 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 1: Why did you do that anymore? Like James James, mgboy, 655 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: you villain dude, what are you doing? Yeah. Also, it's 656 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 1: like that's the untouched colonial aspect. It's like Genovia obviously 657 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 1: has some race issues they need to deal with. There 658 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: is like in there, like little gathering they have, like 659 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: the dinner that she like accellently, like knocked over the table. 660 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,960 Speaker 1: They have like this like Asian woman playing the loo, 661 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,240 Speaker 1: and there's like all this stuff where you're like, okay, 662 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:08,280 Speaker 1: you're clearly like very into this eighteen hundreds like British 663 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 1: colonial look. And then they straightened her hair. That's sucked 664 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,320 Speaker 1: up because I remember being like, I'll only be beautiful 665 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 1: until I have straight hair. And then I got older 666 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 1: and people were like, I want curly hair, and I'm like, well, 667 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 1: which is it? People. Yeah, there's also some weird like 668 00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:28,439 Speaker 1: queer phobia moment. Whenever Joe was like, here are your 669 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 1: pumps that I bought, and whenever I bought them, the 670 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 1: guy was like do you want these wrapped? Or do 671 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: you want to wear them? And he's like, San Francisco 672 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: such a weird place. Yeah, there's a lot of negging 673 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 1: of San Francisco as like a gay place right right, 674 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,360 Speaker 1: which is so dumb because I'm like, this movie clearly 675 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: went way out of its way to take place in 676 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 1: San Francisco. I would have been way easier to have 677 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 1: it literally anywhere else. It's so Hollywood at that time. 678 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: It shows you how like nothing's changed about like the 679 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: bros who are in charge because you know, there's just 680 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 1: like twenty like all like dudes like in charge, like 681 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 1: and they're like, yeah, let's make a movie in San Francisco. 682 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,839 Speaker 1: But let's like acknowledge like how like gay it is. 683 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 1: It's like good for you, dude. Yeah, I feel like 684 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:17,320 Speaker 1: it's because that like driving scene, the various driving scenes 685 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 1: and accidents needed to happen, and I wanted to talk 686 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 1: about them. Okay, so she's d scene. She's not good 687 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,439 Speaker 1: at driving. Maybe it's because she doesn't have a license yet, 688 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 1: but it's you know, there's a bunch of movies where 689 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 1: we see women being bad at driving. It's a trope. 690 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: It's also just a stereotype in the world. The moment 691 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 1: where like a woman like panics and she's like I 692 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,399 Speaker 1: don't know how to hold a steering wheel and then 693 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 1: she like crashes or like something happens like that. I've 694 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 1: seen that all the time, remember, right exactly. So, and 695 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: then there's like obviously way fewer movies where men are 696 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,239 Speaker 1: bad at driving. In fact, there's many movies where the 697 00:42:56,239 --> 00:43:05,720 Speaker 1: whole place good Fasten, the Furious Baby Driver Drive. There's 698 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,319 Speaker 1: a lot of them. But anyway, seems like this just 699 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,399 Speaker 1: perpetuate the idea that women are bad at driving. Yeah, 700 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,839 Speaker 1: all the male movies about driving, Like it's like that's 701 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: supposed to be seen as like a positive thing, and 702 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 1: it's like my high school experience was like getting in 703 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: a car with some psycho who's like, I don't know 704 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,879 Speaker 1: how to drive, but I'm gonna go a hundred, like 705 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 1: you know why at least I'm sucking going twenty five 706 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,600 Speaker 1: as I hit the curve like whatever. My whole high 707 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 1: school driving experience was boys turning onto High Street and 708 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 1: being like high Street get it. I feel like that's 709 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:45,839 Speaker 1: an extension of like cars are a masculine thing and 710 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,400 Speaker 1: but they want to fund cars, but cars are seen 711 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 1: as objects equivalent to women because like they're like every 712 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 1: car commercial is just like stick your dick in the 713 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 1: that's like your dick in the gust. Take then other 714 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 1: woman will know that you're fucking Like that's just like 715 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 1: every car commercial. And then movies that like have a 716 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 1: woman who's like good at fixing cars is a way 717 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 1: to show she's not like the other girls. But they 718 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 1: show a girl like in a tank top with her 719 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 1: book and the other jacket fixing a car, and then 720 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 1: they have to show her with a man immediately to 721 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 1: be like she's not gay, Like she's not gay, don't worry. 722 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: People are not gay. People are not gay, and especially 723 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:33,359 Speaker 1: not the hot woman that you want. And I feel 724 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,399 Speaker 1: like the man is there also to like affirm she's 725 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 1: doing it correctly, like he's also going to be like 726 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 1: what she did do the thing to the thing. I'm 727 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 1: a bad example of I don't know anything about cars. 728 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 1: And the only speaking person of color role in this 729 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 1: whole movie for Princess Diaries is the mechanic. There's a 730 00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 1: cheerleader who there's a cheerleader, but he only role is 731 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 1: speaking in sync with Mandy Moore and the other thing. 732 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 1: And they're like that that that like bring it where 733 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 1: they have I'm missing you. Yeah, And then they have 734 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: the mechanic guy whose only line is he's like you 735 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 1: sweet on her, the only line they give him, and 736 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:16,240 Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, there's also and as a person of color, 737 00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:21,720 Speaker 1: but he all right night and he's like why don't 738 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 1: have to give him a ticket? And it's like unbelievable. 739 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,920 Speaker 1: This the whole movie is about, like where it's just 740 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:32,800 Speaker 1: the grandma being like, if you are the right kind 741 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:36,319 Speaker 1: of a woman, you may achieve your power. I don't 742 00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 1: know if she's really a child. She's like she's like, 743 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 1: you'll come into your power if you can wave and 744 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 1: be female and night male offices when they feel threatened. Well, 745 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:53,319 Speaker 1: also with the mechanic character, his whole thing, like he's 746 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 1: one of three I think people of color who speak 747 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 1: at all in the movie. And also his character is 748 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,320 Speaker 1: so weird where he's like, yeah, let these teenage boys 749 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,239 Speaker 1: rehearse and work for me for no money. Yeah. Yeah, 750 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 1: his whole thing. I was like, that is what who 751 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 1: He's like very invested in that. There's always like these 752 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: high school movies when you look back, there's like these 753 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 1: older people who are like very invested in the sexual 754 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 1: lives of teens and it's just like arrest them. That's crazy. 755 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:25,040 Speaker 1: Like Mr robotozn't like that's insane. Mr robotun't. Was for 756 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 1: sure nude under his yes every time and he's just 757 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 1: muttering under his breath, just being like the clean wax 758 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 1: to the car he wanted em Yeah. Yeah. First he's like, 759 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:39,439 Speaker 1: I can't believe I won an Emmy. It's like, who 760 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,360 Speaker 1: are you talking? That's yeah, what did you win an 761 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:50,600 Speaker 1: Emmy for? That's so sad speaking, that was a horrible transition. Good. 762 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 1: But there is a surprise kiss in this movie. Whenever 763 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 1: Josh he's like, oh, there's cameras, there's how the exploit 764 00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 1: this moment. It is unlike most movies as being wrong. Yes, 765 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:05,799 Speaker 1: and she reacts appropriately by being like you, I didn't 766 00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 1: want you to kiss me. I think she smacks him 767 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 1: with her sandal or something. Yeah, so if and then 768 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,640 Speaker 1: later he gets hit in the dick with a softball. 769 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,440 Speaker 1: So let that be a lesson to you all you 770 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:22,960 Speaker 1: break men out there. Any man who's like the movie 771 00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 1: Brink is problematic. Any woman who likes the movie Brink right, 772 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,319 Speaker 1: So if that Basically, if there is a surprise kiss 773 00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 1: in a movie, there's a right way to handle it 774 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,879 Speaker 1: in a wrong way. But this movie I think did 775 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 1: it the right way. Yeah, we've seen progress since the eighties. 776 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 1: Something I liked about this movie and would like to 777 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 1: tip my hideous felt hat too, is, uh the tip 778 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 1: of the ugly great felt that your teacher makes you 779 00:47:54,120 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 1: take off to reveal you're the hottest school. Uh. What 780 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:03,719 Speaker 1: I'd like to tip that thing too is that it 781 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 1: is rare to see multiple generations of women in a movie. 782 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 1: At all, and especially three generations of women interacting with 783 00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 1: each other. I mean, and it's like a lot of 784 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:18,120 Speaker 1: the time they're calling Anne Hathaway ugly, a lot of 785 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 1: the times they're not disclosing the details of this accident. Uh, 786 00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 1: maybe does pass the loftist test because bondist woman in 787 00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 1: charge Julie Andrews and she's yeah, she's in charge. And 788 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:36,239 Speaker 1: and just like seeing a woman over sixty normally, the 789 00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 1: normally they'll be like, grandma's their mom's dead, right, but 790 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,400 Speaker 1: Grandma's gonna bond with the daughter. And all three of 791 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:47,560 Speaker 1: them have very different views of what the choice should be. 792 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 1: And it's to this movie's credit we do see these 793 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,000 Speaker 1: women interacting a lot, and we see that they have 794 00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 1: different opinions, and sometimes their opinions are weird and stupid, 795 00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 1: but know that's what people are like. So I thought 796 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,399 Speaker 1: that that was a generally positive thing because you don't 797 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,959 Speaker 1: usually see three female characters at all, much less ones 798 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 1: that are related to each other. A better version of 799 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,759 Speaker 1: this women at all. I can't believe we're on this 800 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:17,839 Speaker 1: stage right now. It's crazy. I've never seen more than 801 00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 1: two women at one time ever. Know, Jamie, you're totally right. 802 00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,360 Speaker 1: And then there's many other female characters. Most of the 803 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 1: people that Mia interacts with our women. Um there's like 804 00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:37,160 Speaker 1: the Joe exception, there's the Michael who's basically, I agree 805 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:42,920 Speaker 1: with Marcia, an extension of Lily. Yeah, Lily, but you 806 00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 1: can't have that in mainstream Hollywood. There were echoes of 807 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:50,399 Speaker 1: Daria in this movie for me, where Daria and Jane 808 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:53,839 Speaker 1: are a very similar friendship for any Daria heads out there, 809 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 1: where we're just like kiss but she doesn't. And that's 810 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:03,320 Speaker 1: as brother. Same thing. They create Jane's brother because Daran 811 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:06,240 Speaker 1: Jane can't hook up and they have six Sad World, 812 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:10,400 Speaker 1: which is basically shut up and listened. So it's like, yeah, 813 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:20,360 Speaker 1: you're incredible. So this is effectively a Disney princess movie. 814 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:24,360 Speaker 1: It's live action, but it's a Disney movie. Realized that 815 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:29,239 Speaker 1: it's really called The Princess Diary. I know, I'm so 816 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 1: late in life from like, I can't believe I ever 817 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 1: thought it was smart for one second, what the princess narrative. 818 00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 1: But there's a line towards the end that the grandmother says, 819 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:44,680 Speaker 1: people think princesses are supposed to wear. Tiara's Mary the 820 00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:47,880 Speaker 1: prince always look pretty and live happily ever after. But 821 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,600 Speaker 1: it's so much more than that. It's a real job. 822 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,800 Speaker 1: And it's like, well, maybe people think that about princess 823 00:50:53,840 --> 00:51:00,080 Speaker 1: is because your company, Disney perpetuated that very idea and 824 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 1: also of cinema and also in the movie, her princess 825 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:10,479 Speaker 1: training is only based on Yes, she's not taught like 826 00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:15,760 Speaker 1: how to run a country. She's not taking Civics lessons. 827 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:19,800 Speaker 1: She's not like taking No, this isn't the crown. There's 828 00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:23,600 Speaker 1: no pressure on her to know how to speak in public. None. Yeah, 829 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 1: that's the whole thing. At the beginning, She's like, I 830 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,080 Speaker 1: can't talk in public. They're like, we'll just make you hot. 831 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:31,279 Speaker 1: It doesn't. Yeah, she's she mentioned you like you'll learn 832 00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:34,000 Speaker 1: languages and like study policy, but we don't see that. 833 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:37,880 Speaker 1: We only see her getting hot and then maintaining her hotness. Also, 834 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:39,840 Speaker 1: am I supposed to believe she's at the end, like 835 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,640 Speaker 1: going on a plane to Genovia with that Louis the 836 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:46,560 Speaker 1: cat just being like super happy, like I made my decision, 837 00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 1: Like I had to leave my boyfriend when I was 838 00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:53,879 Speaker 1: fifteen for like three weeks and I was baling. I 839 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 1: was like I mean, am I supposed to believe that? 840 00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:02,799 Speaker 1: She's just like, yeah, like, whatever happened happens, there's no way. 841 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:06,040 Speaker 1: And also the thing that kind of swings the final 842 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 1: thing that swings her decision is a letter from her dad, 843 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:12,279 Speaker 1: who abandoned her at birth, and that's the thing that 844 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:16,600 Speaker 1: changes her mind. It's like, you have at least three 845 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 1: women in your life who you see right now every day, 846 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:24,200 Speaker 1: who have more perspective into who you are. And then 847 00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:27,720 Speaker 1: it's like a handwritten letter from her flashback dad who's 848 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,720 Speaker 1: lounging in a field of daisies for no fucking reason, 849 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:36,759 Speaker 1: being like, dear woman, I abandoned. Hope you're hot. Like 850 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:39,919 Speaker 1: that's the weird thing about Lily though, too, because there's 851 00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 1: this one scene where the writers clearly gave up because 852 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:47,040 Speaker 1: like she's just like, yeah, so like you know and 853 00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:50,200 Speaker 1: my dad who just died like a year ago or whatever, 854 00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 1: and Lily literally goes, I thought you were over that. 855 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:57,719 Speaker 1: It was two months, she goes. She goes, and then 856 00:52:57,880 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 1: two months I kind of thought you were getting over that. 857 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 1: And she's like, well, yeah, but I'm still like pretty 858 00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 1: sad about it. And she's like, but like he wasn't 859 00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 1: even there for you and like, also, you're hot now, 860 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 1: so she shut the funk up? Is she hot by then? 861 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:16,040 Speaker 1: Wasn't that right after? Was before? So even before she's 862 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:19,840 Speaker 1: just like over yourself, Like Lily is not a good friend. 863 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,200 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. There is a moment that I enjoyed later 864 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,880 Speaker 1: on where Lily's like, hey, actually, you being a princess 865 00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:27,600 Speaker 1: is cool because you can like affect chain took me 866 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 1: up with ship. Yeah, but again, yeah, she has a 867 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:36,439 Speaker 1: Faberge egg already, Like and she didn't know her dad 868 00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 1: was a prince. Okay, I forgot. That's the end. She's like, 869 00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:41,279 Speaker 1: I've decided to do this because I'll be able to 870 00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:44,279 Speaker 1: do good in the world. It's like, yeah, fucking right, 871 00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:46,480 Speaker 1: Like the movie should have been about then, Like I 872 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 1: feel like it should have been feeling strongly about a 873 00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 1: cause and having When she's a princess, she's like, yes, 874 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:56,840 Speaker 1: I can use this platform to like her cause was 875 00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:01,080 Speaker 1: my hair is curly? Right? Well, I get yours right now, 876 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:05,360 Speaker 1: And she's like, my causes gone. The Meg Cabot books, 877 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:07,040 Speaker 1: I have not read them in many years. I will 878 00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:11,000 Speaker 1: never read them again. Sorry, but they're very different in that, 879 00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:13,640 Speaker 1: like there is a sequel to this movie that still 880 00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:16,120 Speaker 1: has and Hathaway and Julie Andrews. I haven't seen it 881 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 1: in many years. I know the promise of it is 882 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 1: and Hathaway has to get married in forty eight hours 883 00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 1: or Genovia seeses to exist. Oh my gods. Constitution did 884 00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:32,320 Speaker 1: not think ahead at all. The serious very different where 885 00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I would argue that there's a lot of 886 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,200 Speaker 1: the same core problems, but the rest of the book 887 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 1: series sort of goes on, like Mia has to go 888 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:45,080 Speaker 1: to Genovia during school vacations, but she continues to go 889 00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:48,319 Speaker 1: to school, and so it's more like she's more of 890 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:52,960 Speaker 1: a normal person like Juggling. It's more Hannamiz every weekend. Yeah, 891 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:56,280 Speaker 1: I'm sure that makes her relatable to her team here. Yeah, 892 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:58,880 Speaker 1: that girl I would want to be friends with. She's like, 893 00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:03,760 Speaker 1: I gotta gr up every week and you can't come by. 894 00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:06,920 Speaker 1: But they totally like there's at least some of the 895 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:10,240 Speaker 1: basics of this first movie are based in the source material, 896 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 1: and then they just totally jump the shark and they're like, well, 897 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:14,560 Speaker 1: if Andam hath the Way doesn't get married, there's going 898 00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:18,960 Speaker 1: to be a genocide. It's like it's just crazy. Everybody Genoia. 899 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:27,400 Speaker 1: It's horrid. Genovia becomes Greece, France or whatever it's supposed 900 00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:30,960 Speaker 1: to be. We musty flower Virgin and or the drops. 901 00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:35,120 Speaker 1: It's just, oh my god, it's so true. Yeah, she's 902 00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,360 Speaker 1: like fifteen, and they're like, are you ready to be 903 00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:41,480 Speaker 1: a princess? Do you even want to fuck? She's like, 904 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:46,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm just a nerd. One last thing 905 00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:49,319 Speaker 1: I wanted to talk about is the part where the 906 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,120 Speaker 1: paparazzi takes all the photos of her getting surprised kissed 907 00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:56,319 Speaker 1: by Josh and then changing out of her swimsuit, and 908 00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 1: then everyone the press is like, wow, what a party 909 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:03,680 Speaker 1: animal this new princesses. And wait, my favorite line, it's 910 00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:07,280 Speaker 1: a really lazy line by like one of the newscasters 911 00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:10,399 Speaker 1: in this world, where she's like, we're a night of 912 00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:17,520 Speaker 1: fun turned into too much fun. It's like great, yeah, 913 00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:22,239 Speaker 1: great job. But I feel like it's a commentary on 914 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 1: how like the press often villainizes young women. The grandma, 915 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 1: even the grand she bought it, she basically shame. I 916 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,640 Speaker 1: feel like that scene traumatized me because like there's all 917 00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:39,200 Speaker 1: these like pseudo sexual assaults that happened in these like 918 00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:42,000 Speaker 1: PG movies where it's like, hey, like, go ahead and 919 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 1: get naked in a place that you think is private, 920 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:48,279 Speaker 1: but like, like, I guess I should prepare for that, 921 00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:52,440 Speaker 1: but maybe maybe you should, like fuck. And so now 922 00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: I live my life as a never nude because you 923 00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:02,040 Speaker 1: got cut offs under there positive, someone is telling me 924 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:06,160 Speaker 1: at all times. Um. So I think that's a healthy balance. 925 00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:08,879 Speaker 1: On the other hand, I would argue that her mom 926 00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:12,239 Speaker 1: is very sex positive because whenever she's like I think 927 00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:15,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have my first kiss tonight, She's like, you go, girl, 928 00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 1: go kiss even though that boy sucks and I know 929 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:23,000 Speaker 1: he sucks. Like I mean, her mom's like like I 930 00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:25,400 Speaker 1: want to romantic kiss her. My leg goes up and 931 00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 1: her mom's like loser, And I was like, oh, like 932 00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:36,400 Speaker 1: your kiss. Like every scene as her mom just being 933 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:43,400 Speaker 1: like I get sucked a lot, So good luck to you. Um. 934 00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 1: Does anyone have any other final thoughts about the movie? Um? Okay, 935 00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 1: So I will never not love this movie. However, this 936 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:56,480 Speaker 1: is like one of those movies, like many princess movies, 937 00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:59,080 Speaker 1: but I think this one more so than any other 938 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:02,400 Speaker 1: movie I grew up with, is it is a movie 939 00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:05,720 Speaker 1: that gives you like an avatar character to plug yourself 940 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 1: into when you're a young girl. And so that makes 941 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 1: like what happens in the movie ten Times is important 942 00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:15,280 Speaker 1: because most any girl who is young thinks they look 943 00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:18,880 Speaker 1: like shit. And that is how like, I feel like 944 00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:22,040 Speaker 1: there's no like young women here who didn't see Anne 945 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:23,400 Speaker 1: Happy Way at the beginning of that movie and be 946 00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:27,920 Speaker 1: like yep, and and again. If you didn't and you're 947 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 1: still hot, you're not relatable or as a person, congrats 948 00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:35,960 Speaker 1: to email us with your experience as a hot person. 949 00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:39,360 Speaker 1: But but like when there are movies where there's clear 950 00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:42,400 Speaker 1: characters that are written and designed for young people to 951 00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:44,680 Speaker 1: like plug themselves into, you have to be so careful 952 00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:47,880 Speaker 1: how you manage that character. Often the issue with these 953 00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:51,600 Speaker 1: characters as they are boring. Example, Harry Potter, uh, where 954 00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:53,720 Speaker 1: you're like, everyone's gonna be like, I'm Harry Potter, but 955 00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:55,840 Speaker 1: Harry Potter is like, I don't do anything and I 956 00:58:55,920 --> 00:59:02,600 Speaker 1: have money. I'm my money can under Harry Potter. Anyways, there, 957 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,280 Speaker 1: I just listen to you guys.

Yeah, Jamie starts off the podcast. 961 00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:19,200 Speaker 1: I've been like I hate Harry Potter, and then um, 962 00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:22,280 Speaker 1: your guests, Maggie May I think was like I remember 963 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:24,480 Speaker 1: waiting in line at midnight to get the new Harry 964 00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:27,520 Speaker 1: Potter bucks and Jamie's like, yes, yes, yeah. I was 965 00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:30,440 Speaker 1: like I was there too, but I also hated it. 966 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:35,360 Speaker 1: I'll like to say clear avatar characters who go from 967 00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:40,240 Speaker 1: non hot too hot, who go right exactly And and 968 00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:42,280 Speaker 1: in the movie Too they straightened her Minie's hair and 969 00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:44,400 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, she's hot. That was always like 970 00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 1: you have curly hair, but you're thin. And then they 971 00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 1: strain your hair to take off the glasses and they're 972 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:53,920 Speaker 1: like boom down, and and so that's like a downside 973 00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:56,560 Speaker 1: of this movie, is it? It Like the takeaway is, 974 00:59:57,280 --> 00:59:59,959 Speaker 1: like many movies, being hot will solve most of your problem. 975 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:04,880 Speaker 1: And once you get hot, you're probably actually rich, which 976 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:08,560 Speaker 1: is amazing. You never see makeover where they're still poor afterwards. 977 01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:14,400 Speaker 1: That's that would be an important again industry free idea. 978 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 1: You're welcome. I'm gonna make that and they're gonna be 979 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,320 Speaker 1: like we've done it well. It's like when I stridened 980 01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:21,760 Speaker 1: my hair for the first time, I was like, yeah, 981 01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:26,560 Speaker 1: you still uh I know. I did movie to teach 982 01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 1: me that, Like once I got my hair straighted professionally 983 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:31,960 Speaker 1: from my bomb mitzvah, and I was like, my life 984 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:37,200 Speaker 1: is about to change. And then like everybody was like, no, 985 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:39,280 Speaker 1: we still think Heather, there's the hot one. I'm like, 986 01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:48,120 Speaker 1: there's always there's television shows. But yeah, you're right. Movies 987 01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:50,120 Speaker 1: like that have to be very careful with how they 988 01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:52,400 Speaker 1: handle it, and I would want this movie does not 989 01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:56,760 Speaker 1: handle it very well. But they say bush Man eyebrows. 990 01:00:56,800 --> 01:01:00,080 Speaker 1: They're like hello, Freda calla like no sense of of 991 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 1: anyone Rita a movie that is in thank you. Wow. Also, 992 01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:09,920 Speaker 1: we have a listener in the front row with a 993 01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:18,400 Speaker 1: feminine icon Albert Molina. What's your name? Shout out to Zoe? Yes, 994 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:24,920 Speaker 1: show a shot. Also speaking of bodyguards, who fuck uh? 995 01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:31,080 Speaker 1: Whitney Houston produced this movie? Wait? Yes, yeah she did. 996 01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:33,840 Speaker 1: And literally I was like, it's not that Whitney Houston 997 01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:40,120 Speaker 1: and it is always that Whitney Houston. We're so worth noting. 998 01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:45,160 Speaker 1: This movie has many female producers. Directed by Gary Marshall, 999 01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:48,680 Speaker 1: but always written by a woman and based on a 1000 01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:54,439 Speaker 1: novel written by Yeah, so a lot of women read 1001 01:01:54,480 --> 01:01:56,440 Speaker 1: here are adult novels as well. I haven't read them 1002 01:01:56,440 --> 01:02:00,600 Speaker 1: since I was novels. Could she did? Is she? Like? 1003 01:02:00,680 --> 01:02:04,600 Speaker 1: Genuinely clap if you've read My Cabin? I've heard of 1004 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:08,680 Speaker 1: does she? Does she hold up? Okay, I've heard. I 1005 01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:11,160 Speaker 1: mean I really enjoyed her, but I read I read 1006 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,040 Speaker 1: her through high school and I haven't read her since. 1007 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:16,080 Speaker 1: But I would argue the source material for this series 1008 01:02:16,160 --> 01:02:19,919 Speaker 1: is much better than any of the movie out of like, 1009 01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:23,720 Speaker 1: let's dumb it down because and then the book it's 1010 01:02:23,800 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 1: literally it's called the Princess Diaries because it's written first 1011 01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:29,480 Speaker 1: person from Mia. It's her. That's what I wondered too, 1012 01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 1: because when I was rewatching, I was like, why is 1013 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 1: this the Diaries? And at least they bridget Jones's diary. 1014 01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:40,680 Speaker 1: They make a loose attempt to be like September. Well 1015 01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:43,200 Speaker 1: in the movie, they changed the diary to be a 1016 01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:47,480 Speaker 1: diary she's given that her father wrote in and that's 1017 01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 1: that it is at the end. Okay, but he's not 1018 01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:55,520 Speaker 1: as close as the Prince's diary diary about his daughter, 1019 01:02:55,640 --> 01:03:01,040 Speaker 1: he said to the princess diary that bequeathed upon his death. 1020 01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:04,200 Speaker 1: That's a good game. That's a good title for a movie. Objectively, 1021 01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:12,360 Speaker 1: Hey do test? Okay, Yes, it does pass the Backtel 1022 01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:15,400 Speaker 1: test because there's a lot of conversations with two women 1023 01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:19,640 Speaker 1: that are like over one line that are about country, 1024 01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:24,000 Speaker 1: but mostly about the dead dad who is a man, 1025 01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:27,320 Speaker 1: and also about looks, which is like, that's an interesting 1026 01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:30,040 Speaker 1: thing because there's so many like chick flick movies where 1027 01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:32,800 Speaker 1: it's like, I guess technically they're like speaking not about 1028 01:03:32,800 --> 01:03:36,760 Speaker 1: a man, but they're speaking about making yourself appeal to 1029 01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:43,400 Speaker 1: the male gays who had it on there, who had 1030 01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:47,040 Speaker 1: it on their bingo card, margot down male gay has 1031 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:50,080 Speaker 1: got one in. That's something we come up against a 1032 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:54,280 Speaker 1: lot where and there's versions of media tests they say 1033 01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:58,640 Speaker 1: that women can't be talking about domestic stuffs. But based 1034 01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:01,400 Speaker 1: on this movie and based on two years of doing 1035 01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:04,560 Speaker 1: this podcast, now, like I think the thing that I 1036 01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:07,800 Speaker 1: would jump to first is making a media test like 1037 01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:10,840 Speaker 1: it can't pass the Bechtel test if women are insulting 1038 01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:13,680 Speaker 1: each other based on their looks, Because it passes the 1039 01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:16,200 Speaker 1: Bechtels test in this movie, our version of it, and 1040 01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:20,240 Speaker 1: technically whatever the canonical version of it. So many times 1041 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:24,520 Speaker 1: when women are telling each other, they look like absolute ship. Yeah, 1042 01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:26,960 Speaker 1: and it's like frustrated, and it's not even in like 1043 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 1: the way that it is with like me and my friends. 1044 01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:30,960 Speaker 1: So it's like you look like shit girl, you know, 1045 01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:35,960 Speaker 1: like where it's like a compliment. It's because you're working 1046 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:39,240 Speaker 1: so hard. Well, so many of the passes that we've had, 1047 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:42,360 Speaker 1: or either they're talking about food or making food, they're 1048 01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:45,000 Speaker 1: talking about clothes, they're talking about some other like hair, 1049 01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:48,920 Speaker 1: makeup things, or it's like you should kill yourself. She's 1050 01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:53,640 Speaker 1: all that. I'm gonna kill you, Miss congeniality. A star 1051 01:04:53,800 --> 01:04:56,600 Speaker 1: is born to high I'm gail. This is the way 1052 01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:13,480 Speaker 1: to the stage. I'm goin to icon more. Well, let's 1053 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:17,240 Speaker 1: write the Princess Diaries on our nipple scale if you're familiar, 1054 01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:22,560 Speaker 1: nipple scale if you're not familiar. We rate the movie 1055 01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:25,000 Speaker 1: based on his portrayal and representation of women based on 1056 01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:29,400 Speaker 1: a scale of zero to five nipples. I'm gonna give this. 1057 01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:32,480 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. What was it nipple? What isn't nipple? Does 1058 01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:39,120 Speaker 1: anyone in the audience, anyone do you want to show 1059 01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:42,320 Speaker 1: are you doing like a show us your tips to 1060 01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:47,600 Speaker 1: the audience right now, show us your tips high brows 1061 01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:53,120 Speaker 1: the show first, I'm sorry, does quite familiar? Does anyone 1062 01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:58,960 Speaker 1: have a nipple on head? On hand? I think I'm 1063 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:05,480 Speaker 1: gonna oh, thank you so much. That could go on Instagram. Yeah, 1064 01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:11,320 Speaker 1: I think I'm going to give this a too. Two nipples. 1065 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:17,439 Speaker 1: Like look, no, everyone everyone in there, everyone in their head, 1066 01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:20,400 Speaker 1: have their nipp because we don't listen to us. You know, 1067 01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:25,240 Speaker 1: we're stupid. We don't know over on your head. But 1068 01:06:25,280 --> 01:06:26,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to give it a too because even though 1069 01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:29,919 Speaker 1: in the movie there's female relationships and female friendships, which 1070 01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:32,240 Speaker 1: is great, I do like a lot of the characters, 1071 01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:37,280 Speaker 1: especially Lily and Fat Louis and Mr robotutions two of 1072 01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:42,400 Speaker 1: those are but Lily is cool, So I do appreciate 1073 01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:45,000 Speaker 1: like the female relationship aspect of the movie. But because 1074 01:06:45,120 --> 01:06:48,280 Speaker 1: almost the entire movie is framed around she's got to 1075 01:06:48,360 --> 01:06:51,960 Speaker 1: be a very specific standard of beauty to even be 1076 01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:54,560 Speaker 1: considered to be able to do this whole princess role. 1077 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:57,240 Speaker 1: The movie spends no time being like, hey, you should 1078 01:06:57,240 --> 01:07:01,680 Speaker 1: maybe learn about you know, policy, or like anything like that. 1079 01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:06,040 Speaker 1: Right about the country. It's about the country itself. It's 1080 01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:08,240 Speaker 1: all about and a lot. I feel just like a 1081 01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 1: lot of things kind of happened to her, and they 1082 01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:12,600 Speaker 1: don't even show it on a map. They don't want 1083 01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:14,560 Speaker 1: to even give us like a loose like it's here. 1084 01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:19,200 Speaker 1: So yeah, I think like there are opportunities for this 1085 01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:23,520 Speaker 1: movie to be about something more important and it simply 1086 01:07:23,880 --> 01:07:28,400 Speaker 1: was not. So I'm gonna do two nipples and they 1087 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:35,560 Speaker 1: both go to Fat Louis. Obviously, I'm going to give this. 1088 01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:38,160 Speaker 1: I guess I'm gonna go two and a half. I 1089 01:07:38,200 --> 01:07:40,640 Speaker 1: love this movie, dear, Oh my god, I was gonna 1090 01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:45,800 Speaker 1: go three. Can everyone relax? But someone like seed, I'll 1091 01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:50,520 Speaker 1: go three. I I remember when I was like, I 1092 01:07:50,560 --> 01:07:53,840 Speaker 1: don't so come to peer pressure. I want everyone to 1093 01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:58,320 Speaker 1: think I'm cool. I am going to give this. I'm 1094 01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:02,800 Speaker 1: gonna give it three nipples. And there are there are 1095 01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:05,479 Speaker 1: a lot of issues with this movie, which we spent 1096 01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:10,400 Speaker 1: time discussing. There's obviously a lack of diversity. We only 1097 01:08:10,440 --> 01:08:13,000 Speaker 1: see one woman of color in the entire movie, and 1098 01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:17,280 Speaker 1: she's basically one character combined with another like white Girl, 1099 01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:29,360 Speaker 1: because they only speak. She has she is, and she 1100 01:08:29,479 --> 01:08:32,240 Speaker 1: has multiple exchanges in the movie. The past the Bechtel 1101 01:08:32,280 --> 01:08:34,920 Speaker 1: test because she is a woman in charge. She's the 1102 01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:38,840 Speaker 1: principle of the school, and she's either listening to or 1103 01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:41,920 Speaker 1: dismissing her students, depending on who another thing is. She's 1104 01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:44,200 Speaker 1: kind of like, you know, kind of like a bitch. 1105 01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:46,400 Speaker 1: And then like whenever she finds out that like me 1106 01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:50,679 Speaker 1: as a princess, she's like, oh yeah, I'll do anything 1107 01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:53,720 Speaker 1: for you, which kind of speaks to like, what I 1108 01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:56,639 Speaker 1: do like about this movie is not just you see 1109 01:08:56,760 --> 01:09:00,240 Speaker 1: many generations of women in prominent roles. You see a 1110 01:09:00,280 --> 01:09:03,960 Speaker 1: lot of different personality types from women, and I think 1111 01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:07,959 Speaker 1: that that is a rarity in movies, especially movies marketed 1112 01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 1: to young girls specifically. Is I think like a common 1113 01:09:12,640 --> 01:09:16,439 Speaker 1: like Fumble is like all women have to like each other. 1114 01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:18,960 Speaker 1: If you don't like every single woman, you are bad. 1115 01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:21,960 Speaker 1: And you see and there's there's so many different kinds 1116 01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:25,240 Speaker 1: of women. You know. You you see Mia, you see 1117 01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:28,880 Speaker 1: Julie Andrews who has been raised by the patriarchy and 1118 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:35,479 Speaker 1: is has issues.

Love it. I 1142 01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:11,800 Speaker 1: hate myself, but I love the movie, like rewatching all 1143 01:11:11,880 --> 01:11:13,920 Speaker 1: these like there's this one movie I think it was 1144 01:11:14,040 --> 01:11:16,559 Speaker 1: called No, it's not Head over Heels because that's Samel 1145 01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:18,679 Speaker 1: gives someone. But there's some movie where it's like Freddie 1146 01:11:18,680 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 1: Prince Jr. And he's dating a girl who lives with 1147 01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:26,639 Speaker 1: all models, and she's like, she's like the regular looking one. 1148 01:11:26,840 --> 01:11:30,640 Speaker 1: And I remember being like, if that's regular looking, kill me. 1149 01:11:30,920 --> 01:11:33,920 Speaker 1: And that's what this movie is because I remember at 1150 01:11:33,920 --> 01:11:38,519 Speaker 1: the time being like, okay, Anne Hathaway before like all right, 1151 01:11:38,880 --> 01:11:43,800 Speaker 1: what are the more convincing and we condemned movie makeovers. However, 1152 01:11:44,360 --> 01:11:47,679 Speaker 1: this is the only effective movie makeover where you genuine 1153 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:51,519 Speaker 1: lucy a marked difference between one and two, where like 1154 01:11:51,560 --> 01:11:54,040 Speaker 1: when we did Miss Congeniality, it's like it was Sandra 1155 01:11:54,080 --> 01:11:56,240 Speaker 1: bullok the whole time, it was Sandra Bull, like the 1156 01:11:56,320 --> 01:11:59,120 Speaker 1: whole That's the thing with all these movies. It's always 1157 01:11:59,200 --> 01:12:03,439 Speaker 1: like she's all at your lab. It was her, she 1158 01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:12,240 Speaker 1: was Josie. But okay, so three nipples. One to Miadi 1159 01:12:13,160 --> 01:12:15,880 Speaker 1: General whatever her name is, and I want to give 1160 01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:18,120 Speaker 1: one to the mom who just like refuses to be 1161 01:12:18,160 --> 01:12:20,679 Speaker 1: sledg shamed, and I respect that's so much about her 1162 01:12:21,080 --> 01:12:23,519 Speaker 1: because every scene is her being like I sucked your 1163 01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:30,880 Speaker 1: teacher and me a being like what and her being 1164 01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:33,040 Speaker 1: like in the seventies, I foxed someone that looked like 1165 01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:38,759 Speaker 1: your teacher. So one for the mom, one for Mia, 1166 01:12:39,160 --> 01:12:41,360 Speaker 1: and one is sort of a conglomerate of what should 1167 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:45,080 Speaker 1: have been one character with the Lily brother and that's Oh, 1168 01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 1: and I feel bad missing Julie Andrews, so I'm gonna 1169 01:12:47,640 --> 01:12:49,880 Speaker 1: change mind to three point five nipples to give sort 1170 01:12:49,920 --> 01:12:51,519 Speaker 1: of a higher score than you guys. We can get 1171 01:12:51,560 --> 01:12:54,960 Speaker 1: like the Olympic judging like comedian grade out of three. 1172 01:12:55,439 --> 01:12:59,280 Speaker 1: Yeah for Julie Andrews, because God bless her. She deserves 1173 01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:02,320 Speaker 1: an Oscar for the roll. Don't argue with me, he does. 1174 01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:05,200 Speaker 1: She at least has starved a golden globe. I don't 1175 01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:08,160 Speaker 1: know if she got one, but he says no. I mean, 1176 01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:11,599 Speaker 1: because I think that Oscar should be decided not based 1177 01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:13,920 Speaker 1: on if the movie is good, but based on what 1178 01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:18,080 Speaker 1: people did with the source material, because there was not 1179 01:13:18,200 --> 01:13:20,400 Speaker 1: a lot you could do with this movie, and she 1180 01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:23,479 Speaker 1: stayed committed the entire time. She was like, no, I 1181 01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:26,360 Speaker 1: am a Genovian queen and not like twelve years old, 1182 01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:28,719 Speaker 1: I remember being like Genovia is real, she's the queen. 1183 01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:32,360 Speaker 1: I would like to revoke one of my nipples from 1184 01:13:32,479 --> 01:13:37,040 Speaker 1: Mia and give it to Meg Cabin because story to 1185 01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:39,519 Speaker 1: our source material that got bought. I mean, these authors 1186 01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:41,600 Speaker 1: are so brave, like where they're like I read they 1187 01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:44,679 Speaker 1: call me by your name author where he was like honest, 1188 01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:46,639 Speaker 1: and I read the book after I saw the movie. 1189 01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:48,760 Speaker 1: The ending is completely different. I think they should have 1190 01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:50,880 Speaker 1: done the ending like the book. And the author was like, 1191 01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:54,519 Speaker 1: they changed my whole story, but I really respect it. 1192 01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:56,360 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I don't know how you do that, 1193 01:13:56,560 --> 01:13:59,160 Speaker 1: because if I wrote a book and someone changed like 1194 01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:04,360 Speaker 1: one thing, I'd be like, na, but what about a 1195 01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:10,320 Speaker 1: million dollars? Actually that I could have so much integrity 1196 01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:14,000 Speaker 1: before I actually write anything.
