I 707 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: think this is like sort of one of the reasons 708 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 1: why I love this theme because there's a moment when 709 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: we've talked about this, like when reference to books to film, 710 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: where you know, do we see the film as a 711 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: separate work? Right? It Is it okay if a movie 712 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 1: isn't one hundred percent faithful to you know, whatever a 713 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: book or a previous ip. But is it okay when 714 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: it's a real story, like a real story of a 715 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: real person. 716 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 2: Right? 717 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: Is there like an added responsibility for a movie to 718 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: you know, like whatever quote get it right type of thing? 719 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 2: Or can there be like an artistic license in that way? 720 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 3: Exactly? 721 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 4: And I think if it's if there's going to be 722 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 4: a lot of artistic license taken. Then it should be 723 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 4: inspired by a true story, or there should be something 724 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:28,959 Speaker 4: that's clearly indicating that the director and writer kind of 725 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 4: know that they're going off script into a wilder place, 726 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 4: so that the viewer can understand that, oh, this may 727 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 4: not have happened exactly like this. For example, like when 728 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 4: you're watching something and it's a room, it's a conversation 729 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 4: happening between two people in a room, and you're like, well, 730 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 4: there's no way they can know exactly what was said, 731 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 4: you know, because both of those people are dead now 732 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 4: or whatever. It is that I understand, like taking the 733 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 4: artistic license to expand upon what you think that conversation was, 734 00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 4: but leaving out entire chunks of somebody's experience feels like 735 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 4: a different move to me, and I in terms of 736 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 4: my film, I can't help but think, and this is 737 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 4: truly why I wanted to do this theme. 738 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 3: I do not know if this is fair or not. 739 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 3: I think my. 740 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 4: Movie could have been a totally different movie if it 741 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 4: were written and or directed by a woman. 742 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 2: You know what.

I 1005 00:46:57,480 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 1: guess in like outside of New York or in New York, 1006 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 1: we're around there. He's got a father and the mother. 1007 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 1: The father's played by Christopher walk In. The mother's played 1008 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 1: by Natalie Bay I believe that's how I shared it. 1009 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 1: She's French, by the way. So this kid kind of 1010 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:18,799 Speaker 1: grows up in this great home he feels he idolizes 1011 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:23,239 Speaker 1: his father, right, even though it slowly gets kind of 1012 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 1: revealed at the beginning of the movie that the dad 1013 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:27,360 Speaker 1: is kind of caught up in some maybe some shady 1014 00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 1: business practices, which sometimes he involves his son in, right, 1015 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 1: Like maybe sometimes you know, gets his son to like 1016 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:43,120 Speaker 1: pose as a limo driver so he could like razzle 1017 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: dazzle some people at the bank or something. 1018 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 3: Right. 1019 00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:51,240 Speaker 1: So clearly this is kind of setting the stage maybe 1020 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:55,840 Speaker 1: for some of Frank Junior's later stunts. All right, but 1021 00:47:56,640 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 1: I think what happens is that the father of creates 1022 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:05,799 Speaker 1: a mythology around himself that his son really internalizes. And 1023 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 1: you know, there's a couple of different phrases that he 1024 00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:10,239 Speaker 1: kind of throws around a lot.

Okay, 1096 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:45,120 Speaker 1: but there's moments where I feel like this movie is 1097 00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,440 Speaker 1: too long because there's kind of like too much information 1098 00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:49,879 Speaker 1: tucked in there. And I know that it is kind 1099 00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:53,000 Speaker 1: of by design because this guy, the real Frank Abagnale Junior, 1100 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 1: allegedly have this insane life.

Oh shit. 1271 01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 1: So the majority of this movie is taking place in 1272 01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:09,400 Speaker 1: Frank's sixteen to twenty late teens, early twenties. Okay, according 1273 01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:12,360 Speaker 1: to the research that I read done by these journalists, 1274 01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:17,040 Speaker 1: he was actually in jail, So he was not sixteen 1275 01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 1: being a pilot like he was actually a cars ride. 1276 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:22,720 Speaker 1: So he during the time frame of this film, he 1277 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:26,240 Speaker 1: wasn't even around to do any of this stuff. 1278 01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:28,919 Speaker 3: What was he in jail for that? 1279 01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:29,960 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1280 01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:33,280 Speaker 1: I mean, okay, I have a feeling it is check 1281 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:36,360 Speaker 1: fraud related or something to that effect, but don't wrote 1282 01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 1: me on that. So there's that, the fact that the 1283 01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 1: timeline is way off okay. Two, that they allege that 1284 01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:49,520 Speaker 1: he did not actually steal millions of dollars right, probably 1285 01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:53,040 Speaker 1: just thousands. But the way Frank tells it is in 1286 01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 1: the film especially is that he's still like two point 1287 01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:59,439 Speaker 1: five million dollars okay, That he did not actually work 1288 01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:03,600 Speaker 1: for the FB after he was rehabilitated. 1289 01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:07,400 Speaker 2: He did not pass the bar in Louisiana. 1290 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,360 Speaker 3: And maybe a. 1291 01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:14,280 Speaker 1: Little bit more sinister is the idea that so there 1292 01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 1: is a journalist named Alan Logan who actually wrote an 1293 01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 1: entire book about this thing called it's called the Greatest 1294 01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:23,960 Speaker 1: Hoax on Earth, Catching Truth while we can. So he 1295 01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:28,440 Speaker 1: did very hard research wrote a book about frank story. Okay, 1296 01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:35,680 Speaker 1: So basically like Frank's embellishing, the for his book, which 1297 01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 1: is what the movie was based on, is. 1298 01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:41,520 Speaker 2: Pretty much majority and untrue. 1299 01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 1: Okay, But that maybe there the moments that were true 1300 01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:49,400 Speaker 1: weren't as honorable as it shows in the film. Like 1301 01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 1: in the film, Frank Junior is stealing money from corporations, 1302 01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:55,440 Speaker 1: from banks, you know, people that have a lot of 1303 01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,040 Speaker 1: money and maybe ruin all of our lives. And so 1304 01:02:58,200 --> 01:02:59,840 Speaker 1: I don't know, if somebody scams them out of some 1305 01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:01,360 Speaker 1: maybe that's. 1306 01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:02,040 Speaker 2: Not too bad. 1307 01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:07,640 Speaker 1: Okay, but according to this journalist, he says that Frank 1308 01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:11,800 Speaker 1: actually did steal from individuals and smaller businesses, like so 1309 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:15,520 Speaker 1: you know, people that need money, right, they're maybe not 1310 01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:19,720 Speaker 1: the greatest thing to do. And that also there was 1311 01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:25,160 Speaker 1: a period where Frank allegedly, you know, sort of like 1312 01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:29,640 Speaker 1: met this flight attendant in one of the airlines that 1313 01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:32,640 Speaker 1: he was posing as a pilot for and actually like 1314 01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:35,040 Speaker 1: pestered the shit out of her for many months and 1315 01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:37,520 Speaker 1: like followed her around and was basically like annoying to 1316 01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:39,880 Speaker 1: her to like as part of his grift. 1317 01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:43,680 Speaker 4: I don't know, harassing, just harassing her, yes, So not 1318 01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:46,280 Speaker 4: like so these things that are happening in the movie 1319 01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:48,320 Speaker 4: of like dicapro being like, oh I'm going and like 1320 01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:51,240 Speaker 4: getting all these like beautiful young women to like walk 1321 01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:53,439 Speaker 4: me through the airport, and it's like a very free 1322 01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:54,760 Speaker 4: wheeling thing. 1323 01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:59,080 Speaker 1: Like it was actually a lot darker than I think 1324 01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:05,200 Speaker 1: that was presented in Yeah. But to the point that 1325 01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:08,720 Speaker 1: I was making earlier about liberties, the film took from 1326 01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:11,960 Speaker 1: the actual book that Frank wrote, Yeah, which we know 1327 01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:14,640 Speaker 1: is like now we know the book may have been 1328 01:04:14,720 --> 01:04:19,360 Speaker 1: sort of bullshit allegedly, right, But in the movie the 1329 01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:21,280 Speaker 1: movie actually takes a little bit of liberty with the 1330 01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:25,720 Speaker 1: story that Frank originally presented, which is that Frank was 1331 01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:29,200 Speaker 1: actually not an only child, so he had brothers and 1332 01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:32,080 Speaker 1: sisters or something. He actually never did see his father 1333 01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:34,560 Speaker 1: again after he left the house. So you know, there's 1334 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:39,240 Speaker 1: moments in the movie where the DiCaprio character connects back 1335 01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:43,240 Speaker 1: with the with the Christopher Walking character who plays his father, 1336 01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:46,000 Speaker 1: and there's kind of this like running like, Dad, I 1337 01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:47,680 Speaker 1: want to help you. Why don't you be proud of me? 1338 01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:49,480 Speaker 1: And look what I've done, and his dad's kind of 1339 01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:54,320 Speaker 1: like not interested. But apparently, in real life, according to 1340 01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:57,920 Speaker 1: Frank in the book that he wrote, he actually never saw. 1341 01:04:57,720 --> 01:04:59,080 Speaker 2: His dad again after he ran away. 1342 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:03,400 Speaker 4: So Frank took liberties with his own story, and then 1343 01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:05,200 Speaker 4: the movie took liberties with that story. 1344 01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:10,120 Speaker 2: Correct. So it's like a Russian nesting doll of misinformation. 1345 01:05:10,840 --> 01:05:13,240 Speaker 2: That's crazy. 1346 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:16,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, So basically, the movie said that he was an 1347 01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:19,080 Speaker 1: only child, that he saw his father repeatedly after he 1348 01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:22,560 Speaker 1: left the house, and according to Frank's quote unquote real 1349 01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 1: life story, his mother did not remarry. 1350 01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:30,040 Speaker 2: Her husband's rotary club friend or whoever. The James Brolin 1351 01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 2: character like that did not happen. There was actually no 1352 01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 2: Asian Hanratty, the real agent apparently did not want his real. 1353 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:42,320 Speaker 1: Name to be used in the movie. Oh shit, so 1354 01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:46,080 Speaker 1: they created a fake agent. It was based on a 1355 01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:49,440 Speaker 1: real person, but you know the character was not named that, right, 1356 01:05:49,560 --> 01:05:53,120 Speaker 1: not Han. Ready disturbing to me and maybe only me. 1357 01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:57,919 Speaker 1: Apparently Frank Abigail Junior did not escape a plane through 1358 01:05:57,920 --> 01:05:58,520 Speaker 1: a toilet. 1359 01:05:59,480 --> 01:06:02,360 Speaker 3: Why, but which bums. 1360 01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:03,720 Speaker 2: Me the fuck out. If you want to get down 1361 01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:05,000 Speaker 2: to brass tacks. 1362 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:07,280 Speaker 3: That's one of the funniest fucking parts. 1363 01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:10,480 Speaker 1: Yes, I was like, I wanted that to be true 1364 01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:14,680 Speaker 1: so badly that when I read it in the thing, 1365 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:16,960 Speaker 1: when I was like reading the article about it, I 1366 01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:20,000 Speaker 1: was like, Frank Abigail Junior is like, no, I actually 1367 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:23,000 Speaker 1: did not leave a plane through a toilet. I left 1368 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:26,040 Speaker 1: through like a service entry for food or something. I 1369 01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:29,040 Speaker 1: was like, God, damn it, Hollywood what I feel. 1370 01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:32,640 Speaker 3: But he escaped the plane, but not in that way. 1371 01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 1: No, Yeah, he escaped the plane, which again TBD if 1372 01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:40,080 Speaker 1: that's actually true at all. But according to his original story, 1373 01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:43,280 Speaker 1: he escaped from like a service. 1374 01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:47,240 Speaker 2: Door and a plane, right, that's crazy, and not the toilet. 1375 01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:50,240 Speaker 1: Which bums me out, and again, I not the level 1376 01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:53,000 Speaker 1: of betrayal you will probably talk about. 1377 01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:55,040 Speaker 3: To me. 1378 01:06:55,120 --> 01:06:57,000 Speaker 1: I was like, yo, I really wanted that guy to 1379 01:06:57,160 --> 01:07:01,640 Speaker 1: like crawl through the fucking toilet. Didn't happen, And I 1380 01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:04,959 Speaker 1: feel Spielberg owes me, man, what the fuck? 1381 01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:09,480 Speaker 2: Anyway, So so there's a lot of that. So, like 1382 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,400 Speaker 2: what I like my point is is that this movie 1383 01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:16,160 Speaker 2: is so interesting because there's all these layers of like 1384 01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:20,600 Speaker 2: what's true what's not true? Right, you know, because there 1385 01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:22,640 Speaker 2: was a musical that was based off this movie at a. 1386 01:07:22,520 --> 01:07:26,360 Speaker 1: Certain point, so you know, I think my take is 1387 01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:30,959 Speaker 1: if you see the film as like this closed universe, right, 1388 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:35,240 Speaker 1: it's very entertaining. It has great costumes and sets, you know, 1389 01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 1: Like I said, DiCaprio is kind of firing all cylinders 1390 01:07:38,680 --> 01:07:41,560 Speaker 1: in his like late twenties dude way. I mean, the 1391 01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:43,360 Speaker 1: only thing that I will say it didn't really hit 1392 01:07:43,400 --> 01:07:45,760 Speaker 1: for me is that there's a scene where Jennifer Gardner 1393 01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,360 Speaker 1: plays a high priced call girl, and I'm like, I'm 1394 01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:49,280 Speaker 1: not buying this at all. 1395 01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 2: I don't know, why not at all? 1396 01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:53,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, not buying her as a sex worker at all. 1397 01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:54,440 Speaker 3: I'm not. 1398 01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:57,760 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think like we've seen too much 1399 01:07:57,800 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 2: of her. I just couldn't. I couldn't do it. And 1400 01:07:59,800 --> 01:08:01,920 Speaker 2: so it's like, but it goes back to that question 1401 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:03,680 Speaker 2: we originally asked the beginning of the episode. It's like, 1402 01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:05,520 Speaker 2: isn't weird to know the real story? 1403 01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:06,680 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1404 01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:09,480 Speaker 1: The layers of like what's true and untrue is very 1405 01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 1: complicated in this film.

As the 1499 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:25,559 Speaker 4: news format for a local station in Sarasota, Florida moves 1500 01:12:25,560 --> 01:12:30,280 Speaker 4: its focus towards violence, an awkward and ambitious TV reporter 1501 01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:35,000 Speaker 4: struggles to adapt culminating in a tragic decision that is 1502 01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:38,479 Speaker 4: absolutely right, and that is what happens. So what I 1503 01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:41,400 Speaker 4: will say about Christine Chubbuck and I'm going to go 1504 01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:43,519 Speaker 4: into just like Millie did.

I didn't actually know that Wow. 1513 01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:10,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, me either. Until I started doing some research. 1514 01:13:10,479 --> 01:13:12,280 Speaker 4: I was like, oh, that makes sense, because then you look, 1515 01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:14,240 Speaker 4: if you read about it, you're like, Wow, there's a 1516 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:19,080 Speaker 4: lot of instances after her where people either died by 1517 01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:23,240 Speaker 4: suicide or were assassinated or murdered on air, you know, 1518 01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:25,960 Speaker 4: following this event in nineteen seventy four. 1519 01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:26,559 Speaker 2: Wow. 1520 01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:29,639 Speaker 4: So that's where I find out that the movie Network 1521 01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:32,200 Speaker 4: is kind of based on this or inspired by this. 1522 01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:38,559 Speaker 4: So in the movie, Christine Chubbeck is she's out of 1523 01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:41,759 Speaker 4: place everywhere, and she's played I think expertly by Rebecca 1524 01:13:41,840 --> 01:13:43,880 Speaker 4: Hall no relation to Michael C. 1525 01:13:44,040 --> 01:13:48,560 Speaker 3: Hall who's also in the film. Yeah, But she has. 1526 01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:50,920 Speaker 4: She's you know, she's at work and she's kind of 1527 01:13:50,960 --> 01:13:54,400 Speaker 4: direct and confrontational, but she's also just really passionate and 1528 01:13:54,439 --> 01:13:59,559 Speaker 4: she's determined to stay focused on issue oriented, character based reporting, 1529 01:13:59,840 --> 01:14:02,200 Speaker 4: so she's not into, as she would call it, fender 1530 01:14:02,240 --> 01:14:06,000 Speaker 4: bender reporting. And she lives with her mom in this 1531 01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:09,759 Speaker 4: kind of two bedroom apartment in Florida and Sarasota, Florida, 1532 01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:12,280 Speaker 4: and she's really decisive, but she's also when you see 1533 01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:14,440 Speaker 4: her at home, you realize she's also kind of obsessive, 1534 01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:16,519 Speaker 4: and she always feels like she's at the back of 1535 01:14:16,560 --> 01:14:18,839 Speaker 4: the line at work, so she's kind of always working 1536 01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:22,800 Speaker 4: obsessively hard to get where she wants to be, and 1537 01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:25,880 Speaker 4: her major roadblock is her boss, Mike, who's played by 1538 01:14:26,439 --> 01:14:29,479 Speaker 4: Tracy Letts. And she kind of has a friend in 1539 01:14:29,920 --> 01:14:34,200 Speaker 4: this camera woman named Jean played by Maria Dizzia, but 1540 01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:36,639 Speaker 4: she doesn't have a lot of real support at work. 1541 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,519 Speaker 4: She kind of talks to the anchor, George, who's played 1542 01:14:39,520 --> 01:14:40,000 Speaker 4: by Michael C. 1543 01:14:40,120 --> 01:14:40,320 Speaker 3: Hall. 1544 01:14:40,840 --> 01:14:43,320 Speaker 4: She talks to George and helps him with his copy 1545 01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:45,439 Speaker 4: and like thinks they have a rapport, and she also 1546 01:14:45,479 --> 01:14:48,439 Speaker 4: has a crush on him. But you can tell that 1547 01:14:48,479 --> 01:14:53,120 Speaker 4: people think she's kind of intense at work. So on 1548 01:14:53,200 --> 01:14:55,320 Speaker 4: top of this, she also finds out that she has 1549 01:14:55,360 --> 01:14:57,719 Speaker 4: a tumor on one of her ovaries, and she's basically 1550 01:14:57,760 --> 01:14:59,840 Speaker 4: told that it's going to make having a child more 1551 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:01,720 Speaker 4: difficult and that if she doesn't have a baby in 1552 01:15:01,720 --> 01:15:04,479 Speaker 4: the next like two or three years, it might not 1553 01:15:04,520 --> 01:15:07,600 Speaker 4: ever happen. But we find out eventually that she's a 1554 01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:10,080 Speaker 4: virgin and she's on the verge of her thirtieth birthday, 1555 01:15:10,160 --> 01:15:13,720 Speaker 4: so this news hits her particularly hard, and this unrequited 1556 01:15:13,800 --> 01:15:15,559 Speaker 4: crush on George is not helping. 1557 01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:18,280 Speaker 3: She writes about it in her journal. 1558 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:20,160 Speaker 4: But she seems really stumped about how to kind of 1559 01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:25,280 Speaker 4: proceed in real life with him, and she's also kind 1560 01:15:25,280 --> 01:15:28,439 Speaker 4: of having these these real knocks happening at work. So 1561 01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:32,800 Speaker 4: Jeane kind of leapfrogs her in the workspace because Mike 1562 01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:36,200 Speaker 4: turns down an idea that Christine brings him at the 1563 01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:39,800 Speaker 4: same time approving Jean's story because she's focusing on a 1564 01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:43,439 Speaker 4: serial killer. And Jeane's like, cheer up, you know, like 1565 01:15:43,560 --> 01:15:46,160 Speaker 4: let's ditch work and we can do something I like 1566 01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:48,639 Speaker 4: to do, which is like eat ice cream and sing. 1567 01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:51,880 Speaker 4: And Christine's like, now I'm not having it. So one 1568 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:54,000 Speaker 4: thing I also like, really and I brought that up 1569 01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:56,600 Speaker 4: because it will come back again. But one thing I 1570 01:15:56,680 --> 01:15:58,800 Speaker 4: really also noticed in this film is the kind of 1571 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:00,639 Speaker 4: childlike elements of her life. 1572 01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:03,360 Speaker 3: So she volunteers at this children hospital. 1573 01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:05,679 Speaker 4: She does this kind of sock puppet show with handmade 1574 01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:07,960 Speaker 4: puppets that are kind of just based on whatever her 1575 01:16:07,960 --> 01:16:11,280 Speaker 4: thoughts are for the day, and the set design of 1576 01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:15,200 Speaker 4: her bedroom is really childlike. So she apparently moved to 1577 01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:19,760 Speaker 4: Sarasota from Boston a year before, so her bedroom is 1578 01:16:19,840 --> 01:16:23,559 Speaker 4: kind of intentionally childlike. And there's always these hints that 1579 01:16:23,680 --> 01:16:26,799 Speaker 4: something happened in Boston, like some kind of mental break, 1580 01:16:27,600 --> 01:16:33,400 Speaker 4: and according to her mother. Her mother seems to intimate 1581 01:16:33,439 --> 01:16:37,960 Speaker 4: that her depression or mental health status is based on 1582 01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:40,320 Speaker 4: the fact that she's not been able to find love, 1583 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:42,880 Speaker 4: and you can kind of see that play out a 1584 01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:45,439 Speaker 4: little bit. There's a scene where she approaches this dining 1585 01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:49,559 Speaker 4: couple and it's really sad, even though she's saying something 1586 01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:51,759 Speaker 4: really happy, like she does doesn't know how to react 1587 01:16:51,760 --> 01:16:53,920 Speaker 4: to love, let alone find it for herself. So she 1588 01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:57,080 Speaker 4: kind of approaches this couple and she's like, you know, 1589 01:16:57,479 --> 01:16:58,880 Speaker 4: you guys are great, like you should hold on to 1590 01:16:58,920 --> 01:16:59,240 Speaker 4: what you have. 1591 01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:00,280 Speaker 3: And I'm a reporter, and like. 1592 01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:02,320 Speaker 4: We're always looking for human interest stories. But like the 1593 01:17:02,320 --> 01:17:06,040 Speaker 4: fact that she thinks love like normal relationships stuff is 1594 01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:10,559 Speaker 4: a human interest story is kind of sad. But something 1595 01:17:10,560 --> 01:17:12,920 Speaker 4: else that's like so interesting to me about this movie 1596 01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:15,720 Speaker 4: is so it takes place in nineteen seventy four, So 1597 01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:18,920 Speaker 4: second wave feminism is in full swing, and women are 1598 01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:21,920 Speaker 4: kind of slowly gaining more rights. Like remember we're at 1599 01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:24,760 Speaker 4: a time before women could even have credit cards without 1600 01:17:24,760 --> 01:17:27,479 Speaker 4: their husband or father signing for it, they could bank accounts, 1601 01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:29,439 Speaker 4: like there wasn't a lot that women could do culturally 1602 01:17:29,479 --> 01:17:32,439 Speaker 4: on their own. So that's all starting to change around 1603 01:17:32,479 --> 01:17:35,080 Speaker 4: this time. But she's still, you know, Christina is still 1604 01:17:35,120 --> 01:17:37,519 Speaker 4: kind of stuck in this world where those changes haven't 1605 01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:41,200 Speaker 4: hit where she is yet, and she's stuck, Like she 1606 01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:44,879 Speaker 4: has all the vigor of someone who would absolutely benefit 1607 01:17:44,920 --> 01:17:47,519 Speaker 4: from feminism, but she has none of the outlets, so 1608 01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:50,240 Speaker 4: she doesn't have any friends or community, Like there's no 1609 01:17:50,439 --> 01:17:53,599 Speaker 4: immediate way for her to fully immerse herself or express 1610 01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:56,080 Speaker 4: herself in a way that would be in line with 1611 01:17:56,200 --> 01:17:59,479 Speaker 4: this changing world. And I think that Rebecca Hall again 1612 01:17:59,520 --> 01:18:02,320 Speaker 4: does such a great job of like presenting this friction 1613 01:18:02,520 --> 01:18:04,680 Speaker 4: that Christine must have been feeling, because she has this 1614 01:18:04,760 --> 01:18:07,720 Speaker 4: kind of terse mouth and the seriousness and this kind 1615 01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:10,200 Speaker 4: of dark sense of humor. So she's kind of like 1616 01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 4: portraying how physically uncomfortable Christine was in the world. So 1617 01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:15,720 Speaker 4: Christine tries to she tries to kind of fall in 1618 01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:17,960 Speaker 4: line and tries to cover this house fire, but Mike 1619 01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:19,720 Speaker 4: hates it and he's like, oh, it's just a close 1620 01:18:19,800 --> 01:18:21,679 Speaker 4: up of the guy, like you didn't even show the fire, 1621 01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:25,519 Speaker 4: and she like the thought process that she has about 1622 01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:29,559 Speaker 4: this is so specific too, And she eventually finds out 1623 01:18:29,600 --> 01:18:32,000 Speaker 4: that the station owner is buying a TV station in 1624 01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:35,680 Speaker 4: Baltimore and that he's going to poach someone from Florida 1625 01:18:36,120 --> 01:18:38,320 Speaker 4: to be an anchor. So he's going to be around 1626 01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:43,360 Speaker 4: for a few weeks watching everyone and the boss, the 1627 01:18:43,800 --> 01:18:46,439 Speaker 4: owner of the station, Bob Anderson, is played by John Cullum, 1628 01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:49,599 Speaker 4: who a lot of you will remember from Northern Exposure, 1629 01:18:50,160 --> 01:18:55,360 Speaker 4: amongst other things. Ah, but he was married to Shelley 1630 01:18:55,400 --> 01:18:59,479 Speaker 4: and Northern Exposure. Then Christine wants it. She's like, I 1631 01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:01,960 Speaker 4: want Balton more for sure. So now there's a clock 1632 01:19:02,120 --> 01:19:03,840 Speaker 4: put on her leveling up because she only has a 1633 01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:05,960 Speaker 4: couple of weeks to impress the owner of the station, 1634 01:19:06,840 --> 01:19:08,759 Speaker 4: and she goes so far as to get a police 1635 01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:11,920 Speaker 4: scanner to help her find stories, and that leads her 1636 01:19:11,960 --> 01:19:15,200 Speaker 4: to this guy who's kind of fixing cars for the police, 1637 01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:18,479 Speaker 4: but he also sells and fixes guns, and she's like, is. 1638 01:19:18,439 --> 01:19:19,160 Speaker 3: There anything here? 1639 01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:21,160 Speaker 4: Like she's just kind of going around town meeting people 1640 01:19:21,160 --> 01:19:24,400 Speaker 4: trying to see if there's any kind of story, and 1641 01:19:24,520 --> 01:19:27,880 Speaker 4: after her story ideas turned down and Jeans is approved, 1642 01:19:28,280 --> 01:19:30,519 Speaker 4: she's really just fighting with everyone. Like she tells off 1643 01:19:30,560 --> 01:19:32,800 Speaker 4: her boss and she yells at her mom, and one 1644 01:19:32,840 --> 01:19:34,519 Speaker 4: of the things that she yells at her mom is 1645 01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:37,360 Speaker 4: that her mom didn't prepare her for life, because her 1646 01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:40,000 Speaker 4: mom is played by j Smith Cameron, who's kind of 1647 01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:44,679 Speaker 4: this like very hippyish, like easygoing, floating kind of woman, 1648 01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:47,479 Speaker 4: and she's like, you didn't prepare me for life, and 1649 01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:50,040 Speaker 4: it's probably true, like she didn't prepare her for the 1650 01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:52,839 Speaker 4: life that she's living now in the current cultural climate 1651 01:19:52,840 --> 01:19:56,040 Speaker 4: that she's in, because you know, in real life, her 1652 01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:59,040 Speaker 4: mother Peg was a stay at home mom who never 1653 01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:01,840 Speaker 4: had to work and kind of affluent, and even after 1654 01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:06,000 Speaker 4: she got divorced from Christine's dad, she was still kind 1655 01:20:06,040 --> 01:20:09,439 Speaker 4: of in that able to live in that mindset in 1656 01:20:09,439 --> 01:20:11,960 Speaker 4: a way that Christine wasn't able to live in. So 1657 01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:16,559 Speaker 4: the final insult comes when George asks her for dinner 1658 01:20:17,400 --> 01:20:21,840 Speaker 4: and then after dinner takes her to this transactional analysis meeting, 1659 01:20:21,880 --> 01:20:25,400 Speaker 4: which is basically group therapy and they're not even grouped together. 1660 01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:28,599 Speaker 4: But this is where we learn that she's always wanted 1661 01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:30,920 Speaker 4: a husband and a baby and a job. But then 1662 01:20:31,040 --> 01:20:33,680 Speaker 4: George drops the hammer that he's the one who's been 1663 01:20:33,720 --> 01:20:37,320 Speaker 4: chosen to go to Baltimore and he's bringing the sports 1664 01:20:37,360 --> 01:20:41,240 Speaker 4: reporter Andrea with him. Then he has the fucking nerve 1665 01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:43,120 Speaker 4: to say to her, but maybe you can still help 1666 01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:46,720 Speaker 4: me with my copy. Like this is where the feminism 1667 01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:49,880 Speaker 4: of this movie is. I'm like, oh, this could have 1668 01:20:49,920 --> 01:20:52,839 Speaker 4: benefited her so much. It would might not have changed anything, 1669 01:20:52,840 --> 01:20:54,920 Speaker 4: but it would have helped her mindset so much. 1670 01:20:56,080 --> 01:20:59,559 Speaker 1: Dude, imagine going on a date with some guy. Like, 1671 01:20:59,600 --> 01:21:01,360 Speaker 1: imagine thinking you're about to go on a date with 1672 01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:04,479 Speaker 1: some guy. You have a great dinner, and then you're 1673 01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:08,120 Speaker 1: in the parking lot of his high school and you're thinking, 1674 01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:10,800 Speaker 1: is he taking me here to make out with me, 1675 01:21:11,840 --> 01:21:13,000 Speaker 1: but instead. 1676 01:21:12,920 --> 01:21:21,200 Speaker 2: He brings you to group therapy seventies ass group therapy. 1677 01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:24,000 Speaker 4: And instead of yes, and they just keep asking each 1678 01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:26,400 Speaker 4: other yes or saying to each other yes. But so 1679 01:21:26,479 --> 01:21:28,920 Speaker 4: somebody will pose a question, they're like, yes, but I 1680 01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:30,720 Speaker 4: can't do that because of this, and they're like, well, 1681 01:21:30,720 --> 01:21:32,960 Speaker 4: then you can do this, yes. But it's like a 1682 01:21:32,960 --> 01:21:35,840 Speaker 4: weird mix of improv and therapy that I would not 1683 01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:36,400 Speaker 4: be down with. 1684 01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:40,519 Speaker 2: But I would have been like, so this motherfucker actually 1685 01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:43,320 Speaker 2: doesn't want a romance with me.

So what I'll say is Antonio Campos, 1764 01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:50,719 Speaker 4: who's the director, is also a producer, and he's done 1765 01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:53,000 Speaker 4: things like After School and The Devil all the Time, 1766 01:25:53,160 --> 01:25:56,719 Speaker 4: and he co founded Borderline Films, which produced Martha Marcy 1767 01:25:56,800 --> 01:25:58,040 Speaker 4: May Marlene is a movie. 1768 01:25:58,040 --> 01:25:58,600 Speaker 3: I really like. 1769 01:26:00,120 --> 01:26:02,920 Speaker 4: Craig Schiliwitch has done some things that were kind of 1770 01:26:03,040 --> 01:26:06,360 Speaker 4: in the kind of spooky, eerie realm, and so I 1771 01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:08,759 Speaker 4: don't just wonder what would have happened with this film 1772 01:26:08,800 --> 01:26:10,599 Speaker 4: in the hands of a female director or writer. 1773 01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:13,240 Speaker 3: But like knowing that their background. 1774 01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:17,640 Speaker 4: Is so geared towards thriller and horror, I wonder how 1775 01:26:17,680 --> 01:26:21,640 Speaker 4: much that informed where they took this true story. Yeah, 1776 01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:25,920 Speaker 4: so I'll tell you some stuff about Christine Chubbuck's. 1777 01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:26,960 Speaker 3: Real life as a person. 1778 01:26:27,160 --> 01:26:30,320 Speaker 4: Yes, And I got most of my information from this 1779 01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:33,400 Speaker 4: Washington Post article written by Sally Quinn from August of 1780 01:26:33,479 --> 01:26:37,879 Speaker 4: nineteen seventy four, which is a month after her suicide happened, 1781 01:26:38,360 --> 01:26:41,160 Speaker 4: and in People magazine in twenty sixteen, someone gave an 1782 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:46,120 Speaker 4: interview when the film came out. So Christine Chubbuck was 1783 01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:49,639 Speaker 4: born in Hudson, Ohio. She actually had two brothers, Greg 1784 01:26:49,680 --> 01:26:52,559 Speaker 4: and Tim, and she went to this high school for 1785 01:26:52,600 --> 01:26:55,120 Speaker 4: girls and she formed this kind of this club called 1786 01:26:55,120 --> 01:26:58,439 Speaker 4: the Dateless Wonder Club. So she's always had a very 1787 01:26:58,520 --> 01:27:01,559 Speaker 4: dry wit and it's been very funny. And she earned 1788 01:27:01,560 --> 01:27:05,200 Speaker 4: a broadcast degree at Boston University in nineteen sixty five. 1789 01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 4: She was also very tall. She's five foot eleven. As 1790 01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:12,160 Speaker 4: a fellow tall person, I can say that that contributes 1791 01:27:12,200 --> 01:27:15,519 Speaker 4: to a lot of awkwardness. And the article in People 1792 01:27:15,520 --> 01:27:18,439 Speaker 4: magazine in twenty sixteen was given by her brother Greg, 1793 01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:21,719 Speaker 4: and in the article he said that she had actually 1794 01:27:21,800 --> 01:27:25,200 Speaker 4: dated a man in his thirties when she was twenty one, 1795 01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:28,479 Speaker 4: but their father didn't approve of the relationship and she 1796 01:27:28,640 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 4: never dated another man after that. She worked for a 1797 01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:38,840 Speaker 4: few local TV stations in Cleveland and Pittsburgh and Florida. 1798 01:27:39,280 --> 01:27:41,880 Speaker 4: She was a hospital computer programmer for about four years 1799 01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:44,720 Speaker 4: as well, which might have been where she started volunteering 1800 01:27:44,760 --> 01:27:49,559 Speaker 4: at hospitals, that's unclear to me. And then she moved 1801 01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:52,799 Speaker 4: to her family's summer cottage in cs to Key, Florida, 1802 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:56,519 Speaker 4: and she kind of intentionally painted her bedroom looked like 1803 01:27:56,560 --> 01:27:58,559 Speaker 4: a teenager. She had a canopy bed, so all of 1804 01:27:58,600 --> 01:28:01,600 Speaker 4: that was intentional that we saw on the film. And 1805 01:28:01,640 --> 01:28:04,599 Speaker 4: her parents got divorced and her mother Peg moved in 1806 01:28:04,680 --> 01:28:08,080 Speaker 4: with Peg, and Greg moved in with Christine in the cottage, 1807 01:28:08,920 --> 01:28:10,639 Speaker 4: and then Greg left and Tim moved in. 1808 01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:14,240 Speaker 3: So they were a very very close family. 1809 01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:19,000 Speaker 4: And according to this article written by Sally Quinn, and 1810 01:28:19,240 --> 01:28:23,360 Speaker 4: according to Greg's own account, she spoke to her family 1811 01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:26,839 Speaker 4: at length about her struggle with depression and suicidal thoughts, 1812 01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:30,000 Speaker 4: and she had attempted suicide before in nineteen seventy by 1813 01:28:30,040 --> 01:28:34,400 Speaker 4: an overdose and she spoke about that experience frequently, and 1814 01:28:34,439 --> 01:28:37,240 Speaker 4: the thing that was the most the most jarring to 1815 01:28:37,280 --> 01:28:40,559 Speaker 4: me is that she was seeing a psychiatrist up until 1816 01:28:40,560 --> 01:28:43,160 Speaker 4: a few weeks before her death. So none of this 1817 01:28:43,240 --> 01:28:45,720 Speaker 4: is in the fucking movie. 1818 01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:47,080 Speaker 3: None of this is in the movie. 1819 01:28:47,120 --> 01:28:49,280 Speaker 4: We don't get a look at that interiority of her 1820 01:28:49,680 --> 01:28:53,120 Speaker 4: talking about her own depression and suicidal thoughts. We don't 1821 01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:56,560 Speaker 4: get her talking to a psychiatrist or a therapist. We 1822 01:28:56,600 --> 01:28:59,160 Speaker 4: don't get to see her brothers or the people in 1823 01:28:59,160 --> 01:29:01,400 Speaker 4: her life who loved her. So in the movie, she's 1824 01:29:01,439 --> 01:29:05,800 Speaker 4: presented as this lonely, freakish person who her mom can 1825 01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:10,240 Speaker 4: barely stand because she's kind of cramping her style. But 1826 01:29:10,360 --> 01:29:14,120 Speaker 4: in reality, that couldn't be farther from the truth. And 1827 01:29:14,160 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 4: I think that someone who struggles with depression, who struggles 1828 01:29:18,240 --> 01:29:22,240 Speaker 4: with mental health issues and has a loving and supportive family, 1829 01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:23,720 Speaker 4: that alone changes. 1830 01:29:23,439 --> 01:29:25,240 Speaker 3: The narrative of that life. 1831 01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:27,400 Speaker 4: It doesn't mean they can save the person, It just 1832 01:29:27,439 --> 01:29:30,880 Speaker 4: means that, like, it's a different look at the depths 1833 01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:33,960 Speaker 4: of their own despair because they have all of this 1834 01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:36,000 Speaker 4: love and support around them. So in the film, I 1835 01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:39,920 Speaker 4: feel like we were missing this crucial component of why 1836 01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:43,760 Speaker 4: would she do this? And they mention her struggles with 1837 01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:47,200 Speaker 4: mental health so quickly it's like, oh, something happened in Boston, 1838 01:29:48,280 --> 01:29:50,320 Speaker 4: And then they turned it into something where it's like, well, 1839 01:29:50,360 --> 01:29:52,880 Speaker 4: she's mad at her mom for not raising her right 1840 01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:56,800 Speaker 4: when that wasn't actually what happened, Like she was someone 1841 01:29:56,840 --> 01:29:58,960 Speaker 4: who was chemically depressed and her brother even said that 1842 01:29:59,000 --> 01:30:02,240 Speaker 4: she thought she was bi So like, why is that 1843 01:30:02,240 --> 01:30:03,880 Speaker 4: missing from the fucking movie? 1844 01:30:04,160 --> 01:30:07,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's almost like, I mean, if you 1845 01:30:07,000 --> 01:30:10,479 Speaker 1: want to give it a very cursory sort of read, 1846 01:30:10,720 --> 01:30:16,280 Speaker 1: it's basically like the movie sets it up where she's 1847 01:30:16,400 --> 01:30:20,400 Speaker 1: just depressed because the guy that. 1848 01:30:20,320 --> 01:30:23,760 Speaker 2: She likes doesn't like her and she wants to have. 1849 01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:27,000 Speaker 1: A baby and maybe can't have a baby, and that 1850 01:30:27,120 --> 01:30:30,320 Speaker 1: she's not happy at work. Like it's just that kind 1851 01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:32,120 Speaker 1: of thing where it's like, well, it's just like a 1852 01:30:32,160 --> 01:30:35,360 Speaker 1: lonely lady story exactly. 1853 01:30:35,560 --> 01:30:37,840 Speaker 4: And to be fair, and a lot of the reporting 1854 01:30:37,880 --> 01:30:40,479 Speaker 4: and people talking to her family after the event, and 1855 01:30:40,920 --> 01:30:43,280 Speaker 4: people did reference that a lot, like oh, yeah, she 1856 01:30:43,360 --> 01:30:45,919 Speaker 4: did you know she was she did want a boyfriend, 1857 01:30:45,960 --> 01:30:49,920 Speaker 4: and like her love life was like nonexistent, and because 1858 01:30:49,960 --> 01:30:52,640 Speaker 4: of the time frame, I understand them mentioning that as 1859 01:30:52,680 --> 01:30:56,320 Speaker 4: a possible reason why she was so upset, But they 1860 01:30:56,400 --> 01:31:00,200 Speaker 4: also talked about her depression, which is a medical issue. 1861 01:31:00,560 --> 01:31:01,360 Speaker 2: Right like that. 1862 01:31:01,479 --> 01:31:03,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's kind of like what I mean 1863 01:31:03,400 --> 01:31:07,080 Speaker 1: is that it seems like it was obviously more nuanced 1864 01:31:07,200 --> 01:31:11,479 Speaker 1: than what was presented, but what was presented was basically like, 1865 01:31:12,840 --> 01:31:17,000 Speaker 1: here's a lonely lady who yep, doesn't want to be 1866 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:19,040 Speaker 1: lonely anymore, and she takes drastic measures. 1867 01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:19,280 Speaker 3: You know. 1868 01:31:19,320 --> 01:31:21,200 Speaker 1: It's just that that, you know, and I don't know 1869 01:31:21,200 --> 01:31:24,040 Speaker 1: how to feel about that, obviously as somebody that can 1870 01:31:24,080 --> 01:31:26,240 Speaker 1: can sympathize with that at a base level, but also 1871 01:31:26,680 --> 01:31:31,040 Speaker 1: in the structure of a film that's about a real person. 1872 01:31:31,360 --> 01:31:35,960 Speaker 4: Right, absolutely, absolutely, And I'm shocked that her seeing a 1873 01:31:35,960 --> 01:31:37,759 Speaker 4: psychiatrist was not part of the narrative. 1874 01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:40,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting too. 1875 01:31:40,960 --> 01:31:42,280 Speaker 3: That is very interesting to me. 1876 01:31:42,360 --> 01:31:47,439 Speaker 4: And also on top of all this, the closest person 1877 01:31:47,479 --> 01:31:51,720 Speaker 4: to Christine at the station was actually Andrea, not Jeane. 1878 01:31:51,880 --> 01:31:52,360 Speaker 1: Wow. 1879 01:31:52,840 --> 01:31:53,839 Speaker 3: And Jean had. 1880 01:31:53,800 --> 01:31:57,400 Speaker 4: Very mixed feelings about Christine, she said, and I quote, 1881 01:31:57,400 --> 01:32:00,200 Speaker 4: in my view, she was very self centered. Hers were 1882 01:32:00,200 --> 01:32:04,160 Speaker 4: the only problems that mattered. And Andrea says that in 1883 01:32:04,200 --> 01:32:06,240 Speaker 4: the last few weeks before she died, she had turned, 1884 01:32:06,360 --> 01:32:09,439 Speaker 4: like Christina turned into this total yes person, Like she 1885 01:32:09,479 --> 01:32:13,000 Speaker 4: became and I'm just paraphrasing here, but she became this sniveling, 1886 01:32:13,040 --> 01:32:15,400 Speaker 4: self pitying creature. And she thought that if she got 1887 01:32:15,439 --> 01:32:17,800 Speaker 4: mad at Christine, then maybe she'd pull herself out of it. 1888 01:32:18,520 --> 01:32:21,479 Speaker 4: But the Andrea George storyline, because they were actually dating 1889 01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:24,920 Speaker 4: in real life, I think would have hit harder in 1890 01:32:24,960 --> 01:32:28,320 Speaker 4: that way that they were trying to convey of She's 1891 01:32:28,400 --> 01:32:31,160 Speaker 4: just so upset about her love life. If you realize 1892 01:32:31,200 --> 01:32:36,040 Speaker 4: that Andrea was her closest friend. Yeah, like your close 1893 01:32:36,080 --> 01:32:38,000 Speaker 4: friend being what the person you want to be with 1894 01:32:38,160 --> 01:32:40,639 Speaker 4: is very different from this random woman at work who 1895 01:32:40,640 --> 01:32:42,280 Speaker 4: I barely talk to, is with this guy I have 1896 01:32:42,320 --> 01:32:46,880 Speaker 4: a crush on right right, So that was surprising to me. 1897 01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:51,599 Speaker 4: And Christine was Eventually she was cremated. Her ashes were 1898 01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:54,519 Speaker 4: scattered in the Gulf of Mexico. The broadcast of her 1899 01:32:54,560 --> 01:32:57,920 Speaker 4: death has never been aired, but apparently it was kept 1900 01:32:57,960 --> 01:33:00,120 Speaker 4: by the station owner and it passed on to his 1901 01:33:00,160 --> 01:33:03,400 Speaker 4: wife upon his death, and she gave it to a 1902 01:33:03,520 --> 01:33:07,080 Speaker 4: very large law firm quote unquote for safekeeping. So there's 1903 01:33:07,080 --> 01:33:11,639 Speaker 4: no intention of ever airing Christine's death. And the other 1904 01:33:11,680 --> 01:33:13,920 Speaker 4: thing I found so interesting is that Greg saw her 1905 01:33:13,960 --> 01:33:15,960 Speaker 4: the night before she died, Like he had brought his 1906 01:33:15,960 --> 01:33:18,479 Speaker 4: family over to their cottage for dinner, and she was 1907 01:33:18,520 --> 01:33:20,919 Speaker 4: playing with his daughter with like some of her handmade puppets, 1908 01:33:20,960 --> 01:33:25,640 Speaker 4: and like, again, the depths of her familial love is 1909 01:33:25,680 --> 01:33:29,000 Speaker 4: completely missing from this movie for me. Yeah, like I 1910 01:33:29,000 --> 01:33:30,920 Speaker 4: would not have thought she had siblings. I would not 1911 01:33:30,960 --> 01:33:32,840 Speaker 4: have thought her mother gave a shit about her like 1912 01:33:33,560 --> 01:33:34,880 Speaker 4: at all. 1913 01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:37,519 Speaker 2: So how does this make you feel then about the movie? 1914 01:33:37,720 --> 01:33:42,640 Speaker 4: Knowing all this, I feel like, yes, they're presenting an 1915 01:33:42,640 --> 01:33:47,080 Speaker 4: important historical piece, which is this complicated woman in the 1916 01:33:47,120 --> 01:33:51,040 Speaker 4: seventies did a very drastic thing. But it makes me 1917 01:33:51,520 --> 01:33:54,920 Speaker 4: enjoy the movie less. And honestly, I don't even know 1918 01:33:54,920 --> 01:33:58,280 Speaker 4: if I like the movie, because all I can see 1919 01:33:58,320 --> 01:34:01,439 Speaker 4: now are these giant holes that were missing that would 1920 01:34:01,479 --> 01:34:04,080 Speaker 4: have explained things to me that as I was watching it, 1921 01:34:04,120 --> 01:34:06,439 Speaker 4: I felt like I was missing. It would be different 1922 01:34:06,479 --> 01:34:08,360 Speaker 4: if it's like a catch me, if you can scenario 1923 01:34:08,439 --> 01:34:11,800 Speaker 4: where it was just entertaining no matter what. Yeah, but 1924 01:34:11,840 --> 01:34:13,759 Speaker 4: this to me felt like they had a real duty 1925 01:34:13,760 --> 01:34:18,040 Speaker 4: and responsibility to telling more of the story. Yeah, And 1926 01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:20,840 Speaker 4: that's completely missing, and I think the part of the 1927 01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:22,400 Speaker 4: story that that's interesting. 1928 01:34:22,720 --> 01:34:23,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you. 1929 01:34:23,640 --> 01:34:27,679 Speaker 1: I mean, for some reason, you can divorce those feelings 1930 01:34:27,680 --> 01:34:29,160 Speaker 1: in a movie like Catch Me, if you can. 1931 01:34:30,600 --> 01:34:33,920 Speaker 2: And I just think that because this, I. 1932 01:34:33,880 --> 01:34:37,479 Speaker 1: Mean, this is just a darker story period, Like I mean, 1933 01:34:37,520 --> 01:34:41,679 Speaker 1: I mean, I understand that, like the Frank Abigale Junior stories, 1934 01:34:42,080 --> 01:34:44,320 Speaker 1: has its own moments of darkness and like nobody, I mean, 1935 01:34:44,360 --> 01:34:51,120 Speaker 1: he committed crimes obviously, but there's something obviously darker about 1936 01:34:51,280 --> 01:34:55,080 Speaker 1: this story and the idea that, yeah, maybe there is 1937 01:34:55,160 --> 01:35:00,800 Speaker 1: more responsibility there as a filmmaker to when you tell 1938 01:35:00,840 --> 01:35:01,879 Speaker 1: it right. 1939 01:35:02,479 --> 01:35:05,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you can't only rest on the sensationalized 1940 01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:10,360 Speaker 4: pieces of a true life story, and especially something this bleak, 1941 01:35:10,439 --> 01:35:13,519 Speaker 4: but also this sensational because again, this is the first 1942 01:35:13,520 --> 01:35:17,559 Speaker 4: person to ever do this, and I just don't think you. 1943 01:35:18,920 --> 01:35:20,439 Speaker 4: I would even if they made the movie a half 1944 01:35:20,479 --> 01:35:22,840 Speaker 4: an hour longer or an hour longer, like how whatever 1945 01:35:22,880 --> 01:35:24,760 Speaker 4: it did to the pacing of the film, I would 1946 01:35:24,920 --> 01:35:26,760 Speaker 4: rather have seen it and had all of that be 1947 01:35:26,840 --> 01:35:30,720 Speaker 4: included than to have it be pulled out for the 1948 01:35:30,760 --> 01:35:35,000 Speaker 4: sake of creating this narrative and using it as a 1949 01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:37,240 Speaker 4: device to kind of tell a totally different story. 1950 01:35:37,280 --> 01:35:39,080 Speaker 3: I think that's in bare bones. 1951 01:35:39,920 --> 01:35:42,160 Speaker 4: I feel like the movie is a completely different story 1952 01:35:42,200 --> 01:35:45,200 Speaker 4: from the real person and the real events. Now that 1953 01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:47,400 Speaker 4: I know more about what the real events were and 1954 01:35:47,439 --> 01:35:50,400 Speaker 4: the things that were surrounding her and her life, the 1955 01:35:50,439 --> 01:35:52,400 Speaker 4: movie feels like a fiction to me. 1956 01:35:53,520 --> 01:35:55,800 Speaker 1: So do you think that if a woman had made 1957 01:35:55,840 --> 01:35:57,680 Speaker 1: this movie it would change things for you? 1958 01:35:58,240 --> 01:35:59,320 Speaker 2: Like I artically do? 1959 01:35:59,560 --> 01:36:01,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I really do. 1960 01:36:01,439 --> 01:36:03,639 Speaker 4: And I think that was my immediate thought, and it's 1961 01:36:03,720 --> 01:36:07,680 Speaker 4: kind of my most persistent thought, only because as a 1962 01:36:07,680 --> 01:36:10,040 Speaker 4: writer for this film, a woman who was directing this 1963 01:36:10,160 --> 01:36:13,639 Speaker 4: film would have thought about all of these components more 1964 01:36:13,720 --> 01:36:17,880 Speaker 4: deeply as a way to encompass a woman's full life, 1965 01:36:17,920 --> 01:36:20,960 Speaker 4: and they would have thought about things like second wave 1966 01:36:21,040 --> 01:36:22,839 Speaker 4: fem And I'm not saying that the writer and director 1967 01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:25,120 Speaker 4: didn't think about this, but it didn't seem apparent to 1968 01:36:25,120 --> 01:36:27,280 Speaker 4: me in the film that they did. They would have 1969 01:36:27,320 --> 01:36:30,000 Speaker 4: thought more about second wave feminism and the effect on 1970 01:36:31,400 --> 01:36:33,800 Speaker 4: this woman's life. They would have thought more about her 1971 01:36:33,880 --> 01:36:36,519 Speaker 4: family and the inclusion of her family as a way 1972 01:36:36,520 --> 01:36:40,200 Speaker 4: to tell the story. And again, maybe it's not fair, 1973 01:36:40,280 --> 01:36:42,880 Speaker 4: Maybe it's not fair at all for me to break 1974 01:36:42,920 --> 01:36:46,120 Speaker 4: this down into such a gendered perspective. But I do 1975 01:36:46,200 --> 01:36:49,240 Speaker 4: feel like there is something. There are so many things 1976 01:36:49,240 --> 01:36:51,320 Speaker 4: that were missing for me in this film, and so 1977 01:36:51,439 --> 01:36:54,160 Speaker 4: much that was left out that I just think in 1978 01:36:54,160 --> 01:36:56,639 Speaker 4: the hands of maybe even another male director or whatever, 1979 01:36:56,760 --> 01:37:00,240 Speaker 4: but just somebody else would have told this story more 1980 01:37:00,320 --> 01:37:02,559 Speaker 4: full way. I just I don't know what happened and 1981 01:37:02,640 --> 01:37:05,840 Speaker 4: why this director and writer weren't able to tell the 1982 01:37:05,880 --> 01:37:07,200 Speaker 4: full story, but it just did. 1983 01:37:07,320 --> 01:37:09,000 Speaker 3: It felt like there were choices made. 1984 01:37:10,080 --> 01:37:12,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, and I mean I hey, I I 1985 01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:15,720 Speaker 1: had the same thoughts. Obviously, I did think, huh, this 1986 01:37:15,760 --> 01:37:18,439 Speaker 1: would have been I wonder just the thought experiment of 1987 01:37:18,479 --> 01:37:21,240 Speaker 1: it being like, yeah, maybe it would be different if 1988 01:37:21,320 --> 01:37:24,320 Speaker 1: if a woman had made the story versus man. Yeah, 1989 01:37:24,479 --> 01:37:29,000 Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I'm totally I came at this entire 1990 01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:31,680 Speaker 1: thing with fresh eyes, so I have Yeah, I have 1991 01:37:31,720 --> 01:37:34,280 Speaker 1: a lot of questions generally about things, and I plan 1992 01:37:34,400 --> 01:37:37,960 Speaker 1: on really I would love to know so much more 1993 01:37:38,120 --> 01:37:38,599 Speaker 1: about this. 1994 01:37:39,680 --> 01:37:42,160 Speaker 2: To me, it's fascinating though, because it is that like 1995 01:37:42,439 --> 01:37:43,240 Speaker 2: the theme. 1996 01:37:43,040 --> 01:37:45,840 Speaker 1: Obviously this week is talking about movies that don't tell 1997 01:37:45,840 --> 01:37:49,600 Speaker 1: the whole story and whether or not that's helpful or 1998 01:37:49,720 --> 01:37:52,760 Speaker 1: hurtful to people. Who are watching them. And I feel 1999 01:37:52,800 --> 01:37:55,880 Speaker 1: like we kind of picked two movies where both things 2000 01:37:55,920 --> 01:37:57,840 Speaker 1: are true. Like in the first case, it's kind of 2001 01:37:57,880 --> 01:37:59,879 Speaker 1: like all right, well, yeah, you know all this stuff, 2002 01:38:00,160 --> 01:38:04,240 Speaker 1: but it's also in a closed environment. It's entertaining this 2003 01:38:04,479 --> 01:38:10,040 Speaker 1: you can't divorce the reality from the fiction, and it's tough. 2004 01:38:10,479 --> 01:38:14,000 Speaker 1: And yeah, I mean I was very rocked by this 2005 01:38:14,160 --> 01:38:18,040 Speaker 1: story after like just even like going into like a 2006 01:38:18,080 --> 01:38:20,519 Speaker 1: little research hole, this small one that I did after 2007 01:38:20,520 --> 01:38:22,160 Speaker 1: I watched the movie, I was like, Wow, this is 2008 01:38:22,200 --> 01:38:27,160 Speaker 1: like such an interesting story. It's an interesting movie too, 2009 01:38:27,400 --> 01:38:29,280 Speaker 1: like where I was like, huh, I don't know. I 2010 01:38:29,280 --> 01:38:32,080 Speaker 1: don't know anybody involved. I really don't know anybody involved 2011 01:38:32,080 --> 01:38:34,960 Speaker 1: except for Michael Hall, which is embarrassing probably, but it 2012 01:38:35,040 --> 01:38:37,120 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, it was a lot of like new 2013 01:38:37,160 --> 01:38:37,840 Speaker 1: faces for me. 2014 01:38:38,360 --> 01:38:40,519 Speaker 2: And then I think was also like a thing for 2015 01:38:40,560 --> 01:38:40,880 Speaker 2: me too. 2016 01:38:40,920 --> 01:38:42,960 Speaker 1: When I was watching the movie, I was like, there 2017 01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:46,080 Speaker 1: wasn't like an anchor point for me to be like, oh, 2018 01:38:46,080 --> 01:38:48,080 Speaker 1: well I know that actor or I know this person, 2019 01:38:48,200 --> 01:38:50,720 Speaker 1: Like it just was like kind of all new.

It just felt 2022 01:38:56,479 --> 01:39:02,800 Speaker 1: very dissociated from Hollywood stuff, right, it was kind of 2023 01:39:03,040 --> 01:39:05,040 Speaker 1: seemed like a kind of more indie film to me. 2024 01:39:05,800 --> 01:39:06,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. 2025 01:39:07,600 --> 01:39:09,640 Speaker 4: I think served it well, so you could focus in 2026 01:39:09,680 --> 01:39:11,840 Speaker 4: on people without having that like, oh, this is this 2027 01:39:11,920 --> 01:39:15,000 Speaker 4: famous actress playing this person. Yeah, like I don't I 2028 01:39:15,040 --> 01:39:17,479 Speaker 4: don't think. I think the casting was great for that 2029 01:39:17,640 --> 01:39:20,479 Speaker 4: reason and beyond. But I think everyone did a great job. 2030 01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:22,240 Speaker 4: I think that it was And I don't mind it 2031 01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:24,559 Speaker 4: being an indie movie or having kind of an indie treatment. 2032 01:39:25,880 --> 01:39:29,439 Speaker 4: I just wish that it had a different focus, Yeah, 2033 01:39:30,000 --> 01:39:31,880 Speaker 4: a different folk because I think the story itself is 2034 01:39:32,240 --> 01:39:35,400 Speaker 4: the story is compelling enough on its own, yeah that 2035 01:39:35,479 --> 01:39:39,559 Speaker 4: I wish it was just a little more full so 2036 01:39:39,600 --> 01:39:44,000 Speaker 4: that I got like a more impressive feeling of what 2037 01:39:44,040 --> 01:39:47,000 Speaker 4: her whole life was like.
