Speaker 1: Look out. It's only films to be buried with. Hello,
Speaker 1: and welcome to Films to be buried with. My name
Speaker 1: is Brett Golstein. I'm a comedian, an actor, a writer
Speaker 1: and director of Sitting Duck, and I love films. As
Speaker 1: Melissa Broder once said, Desire is a beautiful disaster, which
Speaker 1: is why The Towering Inferno is also a good date movie.
Speaker 1: Apparently every week I'm invite a special guest iver. I
Speaker 1: tell them they've died, then I get them to discuss
Speaker 1: their life through the films that men the most of them.
Speaker 1: Previous guests include Barry Jenkins, Kevin Smith, Sharon Stone, and
Speaker 1: even Dead Bambles. But this week we have Part two
Speaker 1: with mister Tim Key. Head over to the patron at
Speaker 1: patreon dot com forwards slash Brett Goldsting, where you get
Speaker 1: an extra twenty minutes of chat with Tim, We talk secrets,
Speaker 1: you get the beginnings and endings, his favorites, You get
Speaker 1: the whole episode, uncut, adfree, and does a video all
Speaker 1: that Patreon dot com forwards slash Brett Goldstein. So hopefully
Speaker 1: you heard part one. If you haven't, go back and
Speaker 1: listen to it because you'll need it for all the
Speaker 1: stuff we talk about in part two, you're really going
Speaker 1: to like this one. So that is it for now.
Speaker 1: I very much hope you enjoy episode three hundred and
Speaker 1: forty five of Films to be Buried with? What about crying? Then,
Speaker 1: what's the film that made you cry the most? If
Speaker 1: not The Flying Man Need Tea?
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm straight in here with full monthy Great?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Really twice maybe three times. There's a bit where his
Speaker 2: son I think, goes to emptier savings account to give
Speaker 2: to his dad. I mean, that's that's insane, the sun
Speaker 2: I'm giving his father money. Wow, I'm off. I'm done.
Speaker 2: And then there's another bit with insight, but no, I
Speaker 2: don't need it. I'm happy to just lean into it.
Speaker 2: And there's another one I don't know his name is
Speaker 2: an amazing actor. They all are in that they are class.
Speaker 2: There's one guy who's like a little overweight. His character
Speaker 2: is overweight and he wants to lose weight. And I
Speaker 2: think he does stuff like wrap himself and cling film
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. But he does some very very
Speaker 2: good acting with his wife on screen, and it's just
Speaker 2: he's fantastic. Cried then probably cried at the end, you know,
Speaker 2: when it all sort of works out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, very good movie. Great.
Speaker 2: I would say a quick shout out to Robert Carlisle,
Speaker 2: thank you. Yeah, not at all. I think he's one
Speaker 2: of the greats. That's my opinion.
Speaker 1: He absolutely is one of the greats. Amazing to do
Speaker 1: Begbie horrible, scary, terrifying, and also be such a sympathetic,
Speaker 1: empathetic screen presence in his other stuff that you're like,
Speaker 1: I love this guy, just love him.
Speaker 2: In four months you just love him. That's my opinion
Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, I think it's like a magic trick.
Speaker 2: I think they are for me. Those two parts are
Speaker 2: the two parts of movies where my brain won't let
Speaker 2: me believe that's the same actor.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Pretty, they're two good and you're right, they're doing something
Speaker 2: totally different. One is like probably just I'm guessing, just
Speaker 2: using his own accent, his own vibe, just playing that guy,
Speaker 2: being incredibly likable, sympathetic, it's amazing his performance and full monty,
Speaker 2: and the other one is like just completely inhabiting a
Speaker 2: mad monster. It's crazy that he can do both of
Speaker 2: those things, really good stuff. It's ten points to Robbie Carlisle.
Speaker 2: Isn't it.
Speaker 1: I'm making it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pop gifts Pop ten down for Robbie.
Speaker 1: It's the first time in the podcast someone else that's
Speaker 1: got points, is it really? It puts you at minus ten,
Speaker 1: it's the problem.
Speaker 2: I don't care. I'll happily give away points to him,
Speaker 2: by the way we'll at it. I'll give I'll give
Speaker 2: a few points away to g Horn.
Speaker 1: Ge Horn. Goldie's getting how much? What's twenty points?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think twenty eight. She entertained me royally in
Speaker 2: the nineteen eighties and nineties.
Speaker 1: Right, so you're in minus thirty, so a lot to
Speaker 1: catch up. But that's okay.
Speaker 2: I don't care because there are two of my absolute
Speaker 2: flaves about Carlisle and Goldiehorn.
Speaker 1: Why haven't they done a Buddy Coup film?
Speaker 2: Would have been good, I mean, could still be good.
Speaker 2: I don't know exactly what Goldie Horn is doing at
Speaker 2: the moment with you know, I don't know what Goldie's
Speaker 2: most recent project was.
Speaker 1: I'd like to see them in the car together. Yeah,
Speaker 1: of course, you see crying in the full month. You
Speaker 1: do crying in the human world, just only in films.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty good. I did cry actually a month ago.
Speaker 2: But I don't really want to talk about it.
Speaker 1: Thank you for answering.
Speaker 2: Real, real, real waterworks.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is better than we've ever been and I
Speaker 1: appreciate you.
Speaker 2: Well, well we'll go back to Luton and we'll talk
Speaker 2: about it.
Speaker 1: What is the film that you love? People don't like
Speaker 1: it certainly the critics stain, you don't give a shit,
Speaker 1: you love it unconditioningly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is bad. I mean we've watched this a lot.
Speaker 2: This film is. You might not know this film, but this,
Speaker 2: in fact, I think this. I think we got a
Speaker 2: little obsessed with it and then googled some stuff about it.
Speaker 2: I think it like it didn't. I think it might
Speaker 2: be like in some record books. Actually, the film's called
Speaker 2: P two, P two, P two Why is it?
Speaker 1: Tell me?
Speaker 2: Here's the plot? Christmas party.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think a guy fancies the girl It works in
Speaker 2: the car park, and I think he maybe she is
Speaker 2: not interested in his advances. Anyway, long story short, he
Speaker 2: kidnaps her and takes the hostage. In P two, P.
Speaker 2: Two is the level car park is? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Parking level two.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the whole thing takes place in one level of
Speaker 2: a multi story car park. Yeah.
Speaker 1: How long ago is this film?
Speaker 2: By the looks of things. I'd say maybe twenty years.
Speaker 2: I actually don't think, hand on heart, you definitely could
Speaker 2: make this film now. Yeah, I mean it's pretty crazy.
Speaker 2: It's not on the stuff. This guy's doing an American film.
Speaker 2: This film American film. But I mean there's been so
Speaker 2: many American films, so there's some great examples examples of
Speaker 2: American films over the years.
Speaker 1: There have been a few, for sure, but P two
Speaker 1: stands up to you as one of the I.
Speaker 2: Tell you what happened was I don't know how this happened.
Speaker 2: Oh I think I think this is what happened. Me
Speaker 2: and my friend were on holiday and it was hotel
Speaker 2: room shared, hotel room time, Telly on and maybe thirty
Speaker 2: minutes into this film, and we're just watching this film,
Speaker 2: and you just gradually become aware that there's this mad
Speaker 2: film happening. And then obviously it's come back from holiday
Speaker 2: and buying the film, and then obviously it's New Year's Eve.
Speaker 2: Watched the film before we go out, and then obviously
Speaker 2: you're in too deep there where the following New Year's Eve,
Speaker 2: it's you know, drinks, and suddenly someone puts Peter on
Speaker 2: and so petero has sort of been floating around for
Speaker 2: a while.
Speaker 1: P two.
Speaker 2: You googled Oh, now we're talking.
Speaker 1: It's two thousand and seven. The log line is business
Speaker 1: business Woman. A business woman is pursued by a psychopath
Speaker 1: after being locked in a parking garage on Christmas Eve.
Speaker 1: It's a Christmas movie.
Speaker 2: I guess it really is. And people love that, don't
Speaker 2: they when they say, yeah, this could be the new Diehard.
Speaker 1: P two is your Christmas movie?
Speaker 2: Actually, it's not my Christmas movie because I've got a
Speaker 2: Christmas movie down. And answer to your next question, I think, weirdly.
Speaker 1: What is the film that you used to love but
Speaker 1: you've watched it recently and you don't like it anymore?
Speaker 2: Because yeah, point break, point break?
Speaker 1: Ah, what's wrong with point break?
Speaker 2: Nothing wrong with it. Sometimes you need to understand when
Speaker 2: you're doing your podcast that there are some answers where
Speaker 2: people will think, ah, that's the film for that one,
Speaker 2: and there's others where you just think, I'll tell you
Speaker 2: what I'll put point break.
Speaker 1: What's a shame, though, is if you play like that,
Speaker 1: that's minus ten. I've got to give ten to point
Speaker 1: break because because it still holds out.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think, well, do you know what, I
Speaker 2: just remember loving the It's the ex Presidents, isn't it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I just remember I think in my.
Speaker 2: Mind that was bigger than it was a bigger element
Speaker 2: of the film than when I rewatched it. Also, you
Speaker 2: have to please try and remember the circumstances under which
Speaker 2: I rewatched it, And that would be your friend of mine. Lockdown, Yeah,
Speaker 2: twenty twenty. And you know when you're sort of you
Speaker 2: make a arrangement, you're just finding your way through lockow.
Speaker 1: Were you alone in Lockdown leaving alone in your house?
Speaker 1: Were you? Yes?
Speaker 2: I was Yeah? Were you?
Speaker 1: I was not alone? Luckily, I think I'd have gone
Speaker 1: completely absolutely insane? Did you?
Speaker 2: I went completely absolutely insane? That was the final twist.
Speaker 2: This was one of the you know oases where you're
Speaker 2: just like you hit upon a plan where you're going
Speaker 2: to all watch a movie, you know, and you're all
Speaker 2: going to hit play at the same time. Yes, right,
Speaker 2: so there's like probably three other cup palls and.
Speaker 1: Me, right, okay, it's already bleak.
Speaker 2: Let's hit play.
Speaker 1: Are you all on the phone or you just.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, well yeah, we're gonna be on WhatsApp.
Speaker 2: You know, We're not We're not like zooming and we're watching.
Speaker 1: You're not an audio WhatsApp. You're just like going to
Speaker 1: text each other. You haven't I got a group cool
Speaker 1: game exactly. It's just it's just a visual what'sapp? Three
Speaker 1: two one message from me? One second. I'm just literally
Speaker 1: serving up my food.
Speaker 2: Zero play. They hit playing. I'm like, hang on one second,
Speaker 2: one second, I'm like charging back into my lund space,
Speaker 2: pouring down my track suits, off lunch for the receiver,
Speaker 2: after remote control, press play, and now I'm like thirty
Speaker 2: five seconds for the whole movie. Absolute chaos. Everyone saying, wow,
Speaker 2: interesting fork not at the fork.
Speaker 1: Bit, stop spoiling for.
Speaker 2: It was absolutely carmage. I'm saying, I don't know where
Speaker 2: Bristol was in it.
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not in the bar yet. Do you
Speaker 1: know what I'm going to give you? The ten points back? Good?
Speaker 2: Great, a couple of I'll have a couple of Robbie
Speaker 2: Carlos at this point, actually lock him down to if
Speaker 2: you ever had the pleasure have you ever met Robbie Carlo?
Speaker 1: I haven't.
Speaker 2: I bet bet he's incredibly normal, don't you think?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I bet he's really nice and sort of I
Speaker 1: bet he's really gentle.
Speaker 2: I think he's probably incredibly unaffected, don't you think.
Speaker 1: I imagine some people, particularly around the time of train Spotting.
Speaker 1: Here's my imagination of his life. He might be in
Speaker 1: a bar at point and someone goes yeah, and that's
Speaker 1: something sort of scary to him because they think he's begged,
Speaker 1: and he's like quite upset.
Speaker 2: Right he is, I suppose to The real worry would
Speaker 2: be we meet him at some point. And I'll tell
Speaker 2: you what. It's not one of the questions, but favorite sequel.
Speaker 2: I don't mind Trainspotting too, I must say me too.
Speaker 2: I think it's great. Yep, really good.
Speaker 1: I really liked it, and he again, he's wonderful in it.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you in a similar area if I may,
Speaker 1: because I think what I like, what I liked about
Speaker 1: Tea Too Trainspotting two is that it didn't it sort
Speaker 1: of went Listen, the burden of being the greatest film
Speaker 1: of all time, important film, we're putting that aside. Let's
Speaker 1: just make a good film about this. And that's what
Speaker 1: they did. And there is a film called Doctor Sleep,
Speaker 1: which is a sequel to The Shining, which you can,
Speaker 1: of course, you can't make a sequel to The Shining
Speaker 1: And if you take a side, forget it being the
Speaker 1: greatest film ever made. This is just a film. It's
Speaker 1: a really good film. Yeah that's good.
Speaker 2: Well, nice to see someone's finally taking the trouble to
Speaker 2: adapt on Stephen King's books.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 2: We don't want them just sitting there gathering dust, do it.
Speaker 1: What is the film that means the most to you?
Speaker 1: Not necessarily the film itself is any good, but the
Speaker 1: experience you had around seeing it will always make it
Speaker 1: important to you. Timothy Keys, I had a very interesting
Speaker 1: and good experience for the movie very recently. This is
Speaker 1: I think we're in nice world here nieces and nephews
Speaker 1: in France. No, they still call you about nice world. Look,
Speaker 1: I love spending Christmas with my nieces and nephews. How
Speaker 1: many you got?
Speaker 2: Four?
Speaker 1: Two of each? Yeah? All from the brother gotta be
Speaker 1: just cranking him out, bang bang bang bang.
Speaker 2: It's not the way he phrases it.
Speaker 1: But yeah, what at the age? What are we talking here? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, decent spread. I would say probably
Speaker 2: if if we were a betting man eighteen eighteen sixteen
Speaker 2: fourteen to well, why not lovely right, wouldn't like work.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Pops went out, Pops went out, gives it a
Speaker 1: year back in?
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, back in. Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 1: So were we talking nephew, niece, nephew, niece or two.
Speaker 2: T yep no, no, no, also no nephew, niece, niece, nephew.
Speaker 1: Right right, yeah, yeah, by nephews the nieces.
Speaker 2: I think so. I think so. I think that was
Speaker 2: the thinking nephew, niece, niece, and then then thinking, right,
Speaker 2: we'll just close this off with a nephew and we're done.
Speaker 2: I don't think there's a there's not a couple in
Speaker 2: the world. We'll go nephew, niece, niece, nephew niece. That'd
Speaker 2: be crazy, that's insane. Nephew niece, niece, nephew. Yeah, sounds perfect,
Speaker 2: And it is. They're all very nice.
Speaker 1: Which one? Which one is your favorite?
Speaker 2: Tim Eliza, So Christmas there's always a choosing the films
Speaker 2: to watch, and so I'm like, interesting, try and like
Speaker 2: steer it to home alone.
Speaker 1: Yeah, rapped.
Speaker 2: I've absolutely rattled myself by saying that my favorite is
Speaker 2: I never I never thought. I never thought it was
Speaker 2: this much of a pussy that I go back and
Speaker 2: say no, no, I like them all but anyway, but
Speaker 2: it is actually.
Speaker 1: Anyway. The point being is that top knees or button,
Speaker 1: but but not in my eyes though, yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, in fact, he should have had first beat the bracket.
Speaker 2: Beats the bracket. So then you're sort of waiting to
Speaker 2: we're working out watching movie to watch on Christmas Day
Speaker 2: or whatever, and there's always these swirling ideas of like
Speaker 2: what to watch home alone? I like try and steer
Speaker 2: it towards more the home alone sort of area of things.
Speaker 2: Nativity is flowing around. I'm like, I don't want to
Speaker 2: watch Nativity. That's like such a babyish waste of my time.
Speaker 2: And then but I always like watching these films with
Speaker 2: these people. And then this Christmas I'm just like, I'm
Speaker 2: watching this discussion go out of control. I'm thinking, if
Speaker 2: we're not carefully, we're watching Nativity. There's a lot of
Speaker 2: love for Nativity, and eventually I just succumb and we're
Speaker 2: watching Nativity. That is a very good film. Ah well,
Speaker 2: lovely is have you seen it? No, I've not seen Nativity.
Speaker 2: Watch Nativity. But you know, in terms of answering your question,
Speaker 2: that would be like, it's nice, isn't it to watch
Speaker 2: a film with family, and I really do like these
Speaker 2: these kids, you really like, yeah, exactly, wading through the
Speaker 2: other three, but yeah, forget to oh god, so yeah
Speaker 2: to just sort of, you know, riplet on a Christmas Day,
Speaker 2: just be sort of kicking back and watching and watching Nativity.
Speaker 2: That was That was a nice moment. It's very good. Honestly,
Speaker 2: there's some decent performances in that. Don't worry about that.
Speaker 2: That's Watkins, Jason Watkins and Wooton.
Speaker 1: Wood On firing those films out here, brilliant Freeman. I mean, honestly,
Speaker 1: it's good. It's really good. That's nice. That's nice. What
Speaker 1: is the film that you most relate to? Timothy Keys?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Fargo?
Speaker 1: Which character? Which? Which?
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't even remember the other characters? Oh
Speaker 2: bashimi's floating about, isn't it?
Speaker 1: Who are you? McDorman? No?
Speaker 2: No, oh, that's it. William H. Mason again again very good.
Speaker 2: He's a very good actor. He's a very I just
Speaker 2: like I think that is obviously it's It's in the pantheon,
Speaker 2: isn't it. It's a really good film and some decent
Speaker 2: mystery and some decent detective work. She is off the scale,
Speaker 2: off the charts and her relationship with her husband, and
Speaker 2: it's also sweet and beautiful. There's an amazing scene where
Speaker 2: she meets which I'm always thinking about, where she meets
Speaker 2: an old school friend for lunch in a cafe and
Speaker 2: it's crazy anyway. The point being William H. Macy the
Speaker 2: descent of his character in that film, where he just
Speaker 2: gets in a pickle and he just keeps on digging
Speaker 2: and makes it worse and worse and worse, and keeps
Speaker 2: lying and covering up and just really hoping for the best.
Speaker 2: I just think I find it incredibly relatable that I
Speaker 2: feel I could accidentally find myself.
Speaker 1: Like you and a night out in the Brooks b
Speaker 1: that's okay.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. I just feel like there's a way that
Speaker 2: you could just get in a pickle with your finances
Speaker 2: or something, or you know, offend someone or do something
Speaker 2: where I just think that film is just about a
Speaker 2: man's life just spiraling out of control and after a
Speaker 2: bit there's a momentum that you just can't stop. And
Speaker 2: he's so kind of I guess you could say, maybe weak,
Speaker 2: but in the same way as like people are, people
Speaker 2: are where you kind of go. I don't know what
Speaker 2: I would have done. I'm not watching that film going, oh,
Speaker 2: come on, mate, pull this off together. You can sort
Speaker 2: this out. I'm watching it thinking, oh god.
Speaker 1: It's just really it's a great answer.
Speaker 2: It's not a great answer because it's just it means
Speaker 2: you should back yourself.
Speaker 1: It is a great answer. It feels very feel, very honest, but.
Speaker 2: You should feel like you should. I think the idea
Speaker 2: of watching Fargo should be thinking I've got more about
Speaker 2: me than this, than letting this happen to me. But
Speaker 2: I think I'm a big fan of the dissent film,
Speaker 2: where you're just at the start someone's fine, and eighty
Speaker 2: minutes in you're thinking, this person isn't going to turn
Speaker 2: this round. There's another good one like that, which is
Speaker 2: called Reccoem for a Dream, where it's all fine, then
Speaker 2: after a bit it's just there's no way of turning
Speaker 2: with that trainspotting. I suppose as well, like you know that,
Speaker 2: just I mean, I suppose this kind of descent, yeah, exactly,
Speaker 2: a descent into the pit of despair where you just
Speaker 2: see as you're watching it, there's one or two moments
Speaker 2: where they could have clung onto something and escaped, or
Speaker 2: you know, accepted help or latched onto someone who they
Speaker 2: could have somehow managed their way through it, and you
Speaker 2: realize that all those points have gone now and this person.
Speaker 1: Is done for really good answer. You know what, Tim,
Speaker 1: I'm giving you ten points, and you know what, I'm
Speaker 1: going to give you twelve points, but I'm going to
Speaker 1: take two of you and give them back to Robert
Speaker 1: to Monty because I feel better.
Speaker 2: I've been saying, I think pretty consistently throughout this podcast.
Speaker 2: I'm a massive fan of Robert color in his work.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you don't mind giving him the two points back?
Speaker 1: Oh god, no, no, okay, Oh, here we go to it.
Speaker 1: It's the bit we've all been waiting for. It's the
Speaker 1: sexiest film ever made. Tim Keys basic instinct move on.
Speaker 1: I mean, like, you know, you rack your brains and stuff.
Speaker 1: I couldn't really think correct, it's basic instinct move on.
Speaker 1: It's the perfect coming together of you know, age and yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I'm sure that's not the answer
Speaker 1: that someone who was like seventy when it came out,
Speaker 1: they'd probably they'd probably picked something from the fifties. But really,
Speaker 1: basic instinct comes out when I'm about seventeen, doesn't it.
Speaker 1: I respect that, and you're absolutely right. It is the answer.
Speaker 1: But then the next question is the sub category traveling
Speaker 1: boneer is worrying? Why ones the film? We found a
Speaker 1: rousing that you weren't sure you should tip key. Let's
Speaker 1: see old traveling boner.
Speaker 2: I couldn't think of.
Speaker 1: One not troubled by any boners all clean, All your
Speaker 1: boneers are clean.
Speaker 2: I don't think my answers flit the purpose.
Speaker 1: Well, let's hear it. We'll discuss.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe you can talk me through this one a bit. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I've written down the secret of my success the Michael
Speaker 2: Day Fox film. Yeah, what part of it is the
Speaker 2: traveling by watched it so long ago, I can't remember.
Speaker 2: I think there's a sexy bit in that film. I
Speaker 2: think there is. I think because he's like so successful
Speaker 2: and he's juggling those two jobs so well, I think
Speaker 2: there's like a really powerful like business lady. I think
Speaker 2: it might be in the era where it's off come
Speaker 2: the glasses and it's shake the hair out. I think
Speaker 2: it's like it might be peak that sort of.
Speaker 1: Stuff, peak, like oh my god, I had no idea
Speaker 1: she was so fit.
Speaker 2: I think you get a bit of an idea. But
Speaker 2: I think even so, let's glasses off, shake the hair out.
Speaker 2: It was a different era. I suppose it's directing.
Speaker 1: So you're traveled by that because you're like, hey, she
Speaker 1: was beautiful and along. What are we talking about here?
Speaker 1: What glasses don't make a woman beautiful?
Speaker 2: I've got to say, I don't think I was. I
Speaker 2: don't think it's a troubling boner.
Speaker 1: But what is?
Speaker 2: What are the sort of films where which might can
Speaker 2: you give this? I've never thought i'd ask you this,
Speaker 2: But can you give me a multiple choice for my
Speaker 2: troubling boner?
Speaker 1: Okay, well I can give you. Like, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: Some people get scared of this question and give bullshit answers.
Speaker 1: A fair answer that's in a really safe territory is like, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know an animated character. Yeah, yeah, of course
Speaker 1: that's the sort of way out of it. Is a
Speaker 1: good way out of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think if I thought of that, I would
Speaker 2: have I would have gone to.
Speaker 1: That Nish who does this, who does End of the
Speaker 1: Year with me, has consistently been very, very honest with
Speaker 1: his troubling bonus in a way that I cannot tell
Speaker 1: you how much I respect a lot. I respect it
Speaker 1: a lot. Yeah, yeah, And he picked once in the
Speaker 1: film Sorry to Bother You, when Tessa Thompson's on stage
Speaker 1: having ship thrown at her. He was like, that was
Speaker 1: his troubling bone. That's a good, honest answer. So there
Speaker 1: are there's your scales. You can go, oh bell, or
Speaker 1: you can go you know, I think I've got down.
Speaker 2: I've gone down the middle slightly with my success.
Speaker 1: You've sort of just gone with attractive women shaken out.
Speaker 1: Her hair must nowhere near the middle. Is it?
Speaker 2: It's it's it's it's not far animated.
Speaker 1: No, I mean, like what I what I what I
Speaker 1: get about it is like, you know, it's kind of
Speaker 1: making you like a righteous like you're a good man
Speaker 1: because you're like, hey, she was beautiful, but so what
Speaker 1: if she wears glasses? You know's troubling you about it?
Speaker 1: You're like, what you're saying, what you're saying to the
Speaker 1: listener is hey, women can still wear glasses and be attractive.
Speaker 2: You know what what I'm saying to the listener is,
Speaker 2: I'm saying I'll try. I'll give it some more thought
Speaker 2: over the weekend, and I'll text you and we can
Speaker 2: put it in the show.
Speaker 1: Notes, will you send me a voice note with the yeah.
Speaker 2: I'll send you a voice notes with my troubling bonus.
Speaker 1: Thank you. So, what is objectively projectively the greatest film
Speaker 1: of all time? Not your favorite the pinnacle of cinema?
Speaker 2: Well, that's very interesting. You see. The thing is the
Speaker 2: film I would like to nominate as my answer to
Speaker 2: this question, and it is a classic, and it is iconic,
Speaker 2: but it won't necessarily have come up before in your podcast.
Speaker 2: Is it a movie called Safety Last?
Speaker 1: Do you know it? The Harold Lloyd film where he
Speaker 1: hangs off the cluck he does? That is an excellent answer.
Speaker 1: It has not come up because you are a quality guest.
Speaker 2: And what I would say, let me tell you about
Speaker 2: this film is that is primarily a poster, you know,
Speaker 2: in a student's flat. That's its main sort of m
Speaker 2: O these days. It is very iconic. I'd say it's
Speaker 2: maybe one of the ten most iconic frames taken from
Speaker 2: a film. I suppose, ever, don't know what the other nineer.
Speaker 2: We could do that another time, but the when your
Speaker 2: next thing is a clip of him doing that. And
Speaker 2: when we were little, well certainly when I was they
Speaker 2: had like a show where it was like all different
Speaker 2: clips of like those silent movie people hosted by Mark Curry.
Speaker 2: So you get a bit of Charlie Chaplin, a bit
Speaker 2: of Laura and Hardy. Then you'd get a bit of
Speaker 2: you know, Buster Keaton or something, and some Harold Lloyd.
Speaker 2: And so you've seen I've seen that clip lots of times.
Speaker 2: I saw the movie about ten years ago. That movie
Speaker 2: is insane. It is fantastic. It's a love story, it's beautiful.
Speaker 2: He goes to effectively he's in a village with his
Speaker 2: fiance is broke. So he goes to town and works
Speaker 2: in John Lewis, their equivalent, and he pretends he gets
Speaker 2: a job as like a low down person in John Lewis,
Speaker 2: but then pretends that he's the CEO. And so he
Speaker 2: lives this double life, and there's plenty, thank God, of
Speaker 2: possibilities for physical.
Speaker 3: Comedy, amazing bits where people are like coming into his
Speaker 3: office and he has to show people around the whole
Speaker 3: department store where they think he's the CEO and actually
Speaker 3: he just works there in the haberdashery or whatever.
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, him and his friend, I think he's called the Spider,
Speaker 2: noticed that there's a as a competition, a climbing competition
Speaker 2: to climb that tower, and he thinks he needs he
Speaker 2: needs to win that to impress his lady, and so
Speaker 2: he's sending notes back saying how amazing his job is
Speaker 2: as the CEO, and she eventually, I think, finds out
Speaker 2: that he's not, and then she comes down. But that's
Speaker 2: the final sequence, is him climbing to the top of
Speaker 2: that tower, and the movie is, yeah, it's beautiful. I
Speaker 2: mean a lot of those silent movies, I think I've
Speaker 2: got the wrong end of the stick. I think I'm
Speaker 2: just watching those little clips. Yeah, and it's not until
Speaker 2: he watched that I thought I actually thought that Charlie
Speaker 2: Chaplin was a pretty creepy little fellow. And then you
Speaker 2: watch a whole Charlie Chaplin movie and you're like, oh, right, okay,
Speaker 2: this is guy. This guy is one of the main
Speaker 2: geniuses of you know the last Yeah, well probably ever
Speaker 2: I suppose pretty good and yeah, so these feature films
Speaker 2: really do stand up if you actually watch a silent movie.
Speaker 2: And I think that's my favorite of the lot of safety. Last.
Speaker 1: I'm giving you twenty points for that answer, which gets
Speaker 1: you back to your You're on minus ten and that's
Speaker 1: just the ten you go to Goldie.
Speaker 2: You know what I'd have settled for that coming into
Speaker 2: this podcast, Minus ten is good. That sounds good.
Speaker 1: Monthy's and his own back, so he's faining. Monthy's still
Speaker 1: in the lead lead with twenty. But Goldie on minus ten,
Speaker 1: you are minus t You're currently he's on ten.
Speaker 2: Let's see if I can get up to zero. I
Speaker 2: think I'd be happy to leave this podcast on zero.
Speaker 1: Okay, what is the film you could or have watched
Speaker 1: the most over and over again in May? Interesting?
Speaker 2: Mm hm, I don't know why. I just I love
Speaker 2: that film. I also think there's something about I mean,
Speaker 2: I like a lot of those, a lot of.
Speaker 1: His films Mike Lee. For the listener who may not
Speaker 1: know that, sim we're talking about Mike Lee films, Mike
Speaker 1: Lee a lot. I love a lot of those films,
Speaker 1: and this one, I don't know. It's just so simple.
Speaker 2: I think there's something about it as well, which I
Speaker 2: didn't really realize watching it the first time, but I
Speaker 2: think maybe I did think this when we made our film.
Speaker 2: It's kind of inspirational, and that it's so small and
Speaker 2: it kind of feels like it's possible to shoot it.
Speaker 2: You kind of think that hasn't cost millions and millions.
Speaker 2: That is just a really interesting, compelling relationship, a very
Speaker 2: simple tale, and amazing, amazing writing and acting. And you
Speaker 2: just think if you watch Star Wars, you're not thinking, oh,
Speaker 2: I wonder how I can make Star Wars one day,
Speaker 2: but with and there's other films like it where like
Speaker 2: I remember watching with Naan I and thinking like rewatching
Speaker 2: it and thinking, yeah, that's not like Beyond the witter Man.
Speaker 2: That's like I mean, I mean, I think I'm thinking
Speaker 2: in terms of money, and in terms of technicality and
Speaker 2: st and in terms of like not it's not gandhy.
Speaker 2: You know, you don't really need three hundred thousand extras
Speaker 2: to make with you just got these two three characters
Speaker 2: who you just can't take your eyes off. It's really
Speaker 2: interesting and some locations and you know, some time. I
Speaker 2: don't know how much time, but probably I'm guessing those
Speaker 2: things didn't take months to shoot. I'm guessing they were
Speaker 2: like you could shoot them in two or three weeks. Probably.
Speaker 1: Have you seen his new film Hard Truths? No, I
Speaker 1: have not, have you I love it and I've had
Speaker 1: if I'm honest sort of mixed feelings about his stuff.
Speaker 1: I don't love all of his stuff, but I really
Speaker 1: loved How Truths. I liked it so much. And I
Speaker 1: think it's really funny and really sad, but genuinely funny.
Speaker 1: And I don't know it really Sometimes there's things in
Speaker 1: his film that I don't know. I guess it's just taste,
Speaker 1: isn't it. Sometimes I'm not into not into his all
Speaker 1: this stuff. But H's really felt like a proper banger. Wow,
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I probably like some more than others,
Speaker 2: but I pretty much like most of them, I think.
Speaker 2: I mean, I really like Secrets in Lives. Yes, that
Speaker 2: was really good, and I did like mister Turner.
Speaker 1: Do you know what? I like all this stuff? Who
Speaker 1: am I kidding? I think, yeah, he's so Who am
Speaker 1: I kidding? I think I like Abi Girls Party. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think you do too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I must do. I think I think
Speaker 2: that could have been my answer to this one as well. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it is funny those those films where you like, you
Speaker 2: just turn the telly on and they're like forty minutes
Speaker 2: in and you're like, okay, away we go. Guess I'm
Speaker 2: watching Abba Girl's Party for now. I'm not minding it.
Speaker 1: What's the worst fit You've ever seen? Timothy Keys and Rouge?
Speaker 2: But you know it's just a taste thing, isn't it.
Speaker 2: A lot of people like that movie.
Speaker 1: Yeah? God, I'm so sorry, Tim that's actually got you
Speaker 1: minus thirty. Fine you're back, absolutely fine. You only seen
Speaker 1: it once? Yeah, see it again? Come back to me.
Speaker 1: I cannot wait. I hated it?
Speaker 2: Did you?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Sat again? I thought this is one of the
Speaker 1: best ways ever.
Speaker 2: Oh, I might watch it on Tuesday.
Speaker 1: Yeah, watch it on Tuesdays and figure out your traveling boner.
Speaker 1: Send me a voice. If you still hate it, I
Speaker 1: might give you ten points back.
Speaker 2: I could get the troubling boner in the film.
Speaker 1: I think that would be just a straight up boner.
Speaker 1: Depending on if you were turned on by this sort
Speaker 1: of consumption, then maybe that would be traveling.
Speaker 2: Yes, I'll let you know of them turned on by
Speaker 2: the consumption?
Speaker 1: Okay, thank you? But what but will but but while
Speaker 1: you're in your current not Likingry's face? What is it
Speaker 1: about it? Musicals? Is it the whole thing? What's the thing?
Speaker 2: I got to tell you? I wasn't in there for
Speaker 2: tons of time? I think I was also. I was
Speaker 2: there with my friend and we you know, you just
Speaker 2: look at each other, don't you, and you go you
Speaker 2: give you give each other the we'll give it five
Speaker 2: more minutes. Look, and then you give each other the
Speaker 2: Let's go home and watch Annie Hall. Look, that's what
Speaker 2: we did. Remember as the first time I've seen and
Speaker 2: it's beautiful. It was one of the great, you know,
Speaker 2: solid quick decisive decisions. Let's get out and let's try
Speaker 2: a different thing.
Speaker 1: How long have you made it into mulas? Probably twenty minutes.
Speaker 1: It's an intense beginning. It's a lot going on in
Speaker 1: that beginning. It's it's it's tough to get into that film.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch it again. I already said, yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know. It's very good.
Speaker 2: I'll give it another go. What else is That's a
Speaker 2: famous director, isn't it? What else has he made?
Speaker 1: Most recently made Elvis, he made Romeo plus Juliet, He
Speaker 1: made Australia, Yeah he did. He made Strictly Ballroom. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he'll be a busy Tuesday. I think that's all of it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it might be a missing one.
Speaker 2: I think you are. There's one more absolute whacker.
Speaker 1: I think, what's there. Let's see there's one more in
Speaker 1: there isn't.
Speaker 2: There there's a whacker. I think it's in the last
Speaker 2: ten years.
Speaker 1: The Great Gats. Of course it is the Great Gats.
Speaker 1: You're in comedy, you're very funny, you're in fact technically
Speaker 1: the purest Edinburgh Comedy Award winner of all time.
Speaker 2: I'll go with you on that.
Speaker 1: What film made you laugh the most?
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know what film made you laugh. How
Speaker 2: easy is it?
Speaker 1: It's not easy.
Speaker 2: I've got an answer. I don't worry about that.
Speaker 1: Oh okay.
Speaker 2: I mean the things that made me laugh are things
Speaker 2: that are a long time ago.
Speaker 1: Yeah, pre boom, pre thinking about booms.
Speaker 2: Yeah, crazy, But I really really remember laughing at the jerk.
Speaker 1: Yeah, i'd go with two brains, right.
Speaker 2: So I don't know whether those things necessarily would stand
Speaker 2: up now, no idea. I think if I'm being like really,
Speaker 2: I mean it must be. I would say it must be.
Speaker 2: Your most common answer airplane is like, that's like such
Speaker 2: a yeah, but you know it's probably films where you're
Speaker 2: like the ones where it's not necessarily a flat out comedy.
Speaker 2: There's a film called Man Bites Dog. Do you know
Speaker 2: that one. I do know that Belgium. Yeah, very distinct. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: but it's kind of like very very dark humor. Kind
Speaker 2: of mad, isn't it. It's a documentary serial filmmaker. Yeah,
Speaker 2: yeah exactly, so you get sort of kind of interesting
Speaker 2: scenes with very matter of fact dialogue about just a
Speaker 2: guy as if he's like, as if his job is
Speaker 2: a normal, mundane job, but he's just chatting about his
Speaker 2: job whilst simultaneously weighing down a body with rocks in
Speaker 2: a canal.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 2: It was funny, but you know, I don't know how
Speaker 2: much how kind of hard wired I am. I think
Speaker 2: probably it's more palatable to watch a movie which is
Speaker 2: like a really serious movie and then it's funny.
Speaker 1: Yes, well I think that. I think about like The Sopranos,
Speaker 1: and you go, Sopranos is drama. It's so funny. It's
Speaker 1: fifty percent funny, yeah, if not more. Yeah, Timothy Keys,
Speaker 1: what an absolute delight? This has been?
Speaker 2: How great?
Speaker 1: Bra?
Speaker 2: Oh no, what do I have to do?
Speaker 1: When you were eighty years old and you finally you've
Speaker 1: done everything you wanted to do, you'd already done it.
Speaker 1: To be fair, you made it, you won the lottery again,
Speaker 1: and with that money you made another film and it
Speaker 1: was also good. And then you were like, there's one
Speaker 1: thing left I want to do in this lifetime, and
Speaker 1: that is meet Gehorn. And you find out where she lives,
Speaker 1: somewhere in la and You've brought me along as an assassin,
Speaker 1: and I say, why am I doing this? And you say,
Speaker 1: I just wanted to think that I sort of did
Speaker 1: something for her. And I was like, why don't you
Speaker 1: just sort of shake her hand? You go, no, I don't.
Speaker 1: I just said she gets that from a lot of people,
Speaker 1: like I want to sort of stand out. And I said, well,
Speaker 1: she might know your work, remember what happened with Cary Mulligan.
Speaker 1: She might actually be a fan of yours. And you're like,
Speaker 1: I just don't think Gehorn cares enough. And there's only
Speaker 1: one way to really sort of get her attention. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: and we stick to a plan. You say, just stick
Speaker 1: to a plan. I go, okay, So I take my
Speaker 1: gun and hide in the bushes and you walk towards
Speaker 1: g Horn and you wait, gee Horn, and she looks
Speaker 1: terrified because she's not expecting you. You didn't actually call ahead,
Speaker 1: and as you're walking. You think, I don't know if
Speaker 1: this was the best plan. Actually this is kind of
Speaker 1: worse than me just kind of sending a letter or something.
Speaker 1: And you look back at me like I was thinking.
Speaker 1: Because she looks scared, Kurt Russell comes out with a
Speaker 1: shotgun and you're like, who wha, whoa, whoa whoa, And
Speaker 1: you put your hands up and I shoot you bang
Speaker 1: in the back of the head. Oh yeah, your head explodes,
Speaker 1: splashes all over poor g Horn. She screams. Kurt Russell's
Speaker 1: like looking at his gun, like what I didn't think
Speaker 1: I pressed it? What the fuck happened? You fall down,
Speaker 1: I stand up with a coffin. You know, I'm like,
Speaker 1: I guy, sorry, that was actually me. He wanted to
Speaker 1: just impress your g Horn. Kurt Russell comes behind me
Speaker 1: as I'm trying to explain to you Horn, he shoots
Speaker 1: me in the back of I'm dead. Geehorn goes, what
Speaker 1: the fuck just happened? And Kurt Russell goes, I don't know.
Speaker 1: These English guys are fucking crazy anyway. They put you
Speaker 1: in the coffin that I had on me, and they
Speaker 1: put you in there. But you're a bigger man at
Speaker 1: eighty than I was planning. There's no room in this coffin.
Speaker 1: They have to chop you up. They're getting accents, they're outdoorsy,
Speaker 1: they're chopping you out, putting you in the coffin. It's
Speaker 1: absolutely round. There's only enough room in this coffin for
Speaker 1: one of them to slip a DVD into the side
Speaker 1: for you to take across to the other side. And
Speaker 1: on the other side, it's movie night every night. What
Speaker 1: film are you taking to show? The scary Egghead in Heaven?
Speaker 1: When it is your movie night, mister Tim Keys the apartment?
Speaker 1: Thank you, pleasure, tim Key. Is there anything you'd like
