1
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,920
Speaker 1: When you were growing up, did you ever have or

2
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: consider becoming an exchange student.

3
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 2: I thought about this exchange student that I knew didn't

4
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,319
Speaker 2: go to my high school, but went to my best

5
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:34,560
Speaker 2: friend's high school. And it actually started with her friend

6
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:39,279
Speaker 2: went to Germany and did an exchange program, met the family.

7
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 2: I don't know if they started dating or not, but

8
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 2: the teenage boy that was the same age as her

9
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 2: came in did an exchange system with her family in

10
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 2: the States, and then he stayed and they got.

11
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: Married, so then they were dating. My guess is if

12
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: they ended up married, they were probably dating.

13
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 3: They dated definitely when they're here.

14
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 2: I don't know if she started dating him while he

15
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 2: was in German, But I thought about them throughout so

16
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,839
Speaker 2: much of this movie because I.

17
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 3: Just kept thinking.

18
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 2: And obviously there's a difference within the seventies versus early

19
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 2: two thousands, but how scary it would be for both

20
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 2: the individual and their parents for your child to be

21
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 2: across in a different country with the family that you

22
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 2: don't really know. I mean, it was just I just

23
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 2: could not, like, my brain kept swirling. I had to

24
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 2: keep rewinding it because my brain started spinning off and

25
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 2: off of what it would be like to either be

26
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 2: an exchange student, have an exchange student, or be parents

27
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: of either of those situations.

28
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: While my cousin lived with us, he was from Germany

29
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: and he lived with us for a year and went

30
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: to high school. Oh, it was awesome because he was

31
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: super popular.

32
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 2: So he did he up your social game?

33
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: He did well? Yeah, so because I was in eighth grade.

34
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: So then by the time I moved freshman year, all

35
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 1: his friends were senior so I got it, like I

36
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: figured it out out. So it was like they all

37
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: knew me by the time I got there. So I

38
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: had friends my freshman year. It was the only time

39
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,559
Speaker 1: I had friends in high school. But it was fun

40
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: that one time, my time.

41
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 2: You say something like that, I just want you to

42
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 2: know me, and the rest of the audience do not

43
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 2: believe you.

44
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: That's great, I love that. The sad thing is it's its.

45
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 2: One hundred percent chance you were not super cool in

46
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 2: high school. I just don't believe it.

47
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 1: We had the same thing on pod Metro when my

48
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: dad came and and was one of the guests and

49
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: writer and Danielle. Danielle was like, Okay, we can finally

50
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: put this to rest. Can you please tell us how

51
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: many girlfriends Will had, and my dad's like, Will didn't

52
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: have any girlfriends, and it just shut them down because

53
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 1: it's true. I was not popular and had no girlfriends.

54
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 2: Absolutely, absolutely fat is insanity to me.

55
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: I just it's absolutely believe.

56
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 2: Wow, I'm not sure if I'm there yet. I might

57
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 2: have to actually meet your dad.

58
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 1: That's funny. You will, you will, he'll explain. And uh,

59
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: they were my best friends. So that's who I was

60
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: hanging out with the whole time in high school. So cool.

61
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Magical Rewind, the show that makes you

62
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: want to grab your friends, your pjs, and your popcorn

63
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: and go back to a time when all the houses

64
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: were smart. The waves are tsunamis and the high school's musical.

65
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 3: I'm Wilfordell and I'm Sabrina Brian, and.

66
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: It is time to look beyond black and white, because

67
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 1: this week we're talking about a very special Disney Channel

68
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: original movie from the year two thousand, our second based

69
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: on actual events. Sabrina, do you remember the first one,

70
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 1: No Gotta Kick it Up?

71
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 2: Oh that's right, yes.

72
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: Yes, gotta kick it up.

73
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 2: Yes that's true.

74
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 1: So this is number two, and this week's movie is

75
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: the Color of Friendship. It first aired on February fifth

76
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: of two thousand, purposefully debuting during Black History Month. It

77
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: would be released on VHS two years later, and it

78
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: is one of the best review d cooms of all time.

79
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: The La Times calling the film surprisingly compelling and stated

80
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: that although it is frequently predictable, it quote delves unexpectedly

81
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: deeper quote. The Seattle Times wrote that the film breaks

82
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: the nauseatingly simple after school special mold of most child

83
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: friendly Teleflix and that it is certainly one of the

84
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: better films you'll se on the Disney Channel, which again

85
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: I agree with all that, but we'll get into it.

86
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: Ben a while since we've had a movie that made

87
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: this list, but Complex had it as number ten on

88
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: the top twenty five d COM's list, and Collider ranked

89
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: it at number fifteen. And I hate to bury the

90
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:19,119
Speaker 1: lead here, but it is also our first Emmy winner ever.

91
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: We thought Going to the Mat could have could have

92
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: been one, seriously could have been one. But this is

93
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: our first ever Emmy winner. It won the Award for

94
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: Outstanding Children's Program in two thousand. It also won the

95
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: Humanities Prize and NAACP Image Award. A WJA Award and

96
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 1: was nominated for a DGA Award. It is safe to

97
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: say that neither Luck of the Irish or I'm going

98
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: to throw in Fuzzbucket had a chance of winning it.

99
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 3: A slightly slightly missed the mark on those, so.

100
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: We are definitely entering a different type of category today.

101
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: It is viewable on Disney Plus, so you can check

102
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 1: it out there, or maybe you already have. We're not

103
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: keeping track. You do you now? Amongst the critical and

104
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: industry praise, Sabrina, did you know about the Color of

105
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 1: Friendship before we watched it here on our Wonderful podcast?

106
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,119
Speaker 2: I did. I was excited for this like this one.

107
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: I did.

108
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 2: I really did like this one. I was excited to

109
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 2: rewatch it again. It's crazy how I will remember loving

110
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 2: a movie and then when it starts, I just have

111
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 2: no recollection of where things are going to.

112
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 3: Start because it's just been so long.

113
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: Yeah it's been twenty four years.

114
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 2: Yes, and I remember, and I still felt the same

115
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 2: way watching this of Wow, Disney took such a beautiful

116
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 2: leap into and exploring and explaining something that is super important,

117
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 2: but they did it in an amazing Disney way.

118
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 3: I just thought it.

119
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 2: It was done so well and you know it, but

120
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 2: also a risk for them, right, critics and everything are

121
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 2: talking about this is not a typical thing for Disney

122
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 2: to dive into something that is very controversial, you know,

123
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,720
Speaker 2: So I thought it was they just Disney blows.

124
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 3: My mind again, Disney Channel.

125
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: Jeez, you know what, I think this will surprise nobody

126
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: when I say that I knew nothing of it. I

127
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: am starting to realize that I've heard of maybe three.

128
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 2: Things, see three different I've.

129
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: Seen like i'd heard that, I'd heard of the Cheetah Girls, obviously,

130
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: I'd heard of high school musical. I've heard of my

131
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: date with the President's daughter because I was in it.

132
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: Other than that, I really hadn't heard it. So yes,

133
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: so everybody out there, don't lock yourself in a room.

134
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: Just that a room that's not even yours, by the way,

135
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: Just yet, it's time for the synopsis.

136
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 2: Here we go.

137
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: A white South African girl finds herself in a difficult

138
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 1: situation when she is sent to spend a term with

139
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: a black family in America. So I think we just

140
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: got your early thoughts. You loved it, right, Yes.

141
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 2: I was almost nervous how they were going to handle

142
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 2: certain things though. I was kind of going, oh, here

143
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 2: we go, oh, and then it turned out it just

144
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 2: just was done really well.

145
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: This is one of those movies. So first of all,

146
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: I thought this movie was phenomenal, absolutely phenomenal.

147
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 3: I knew you were going to love it.

148
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: I loved this movie. I loved basically everything about it,

149
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 1: down to the music. I mean, I loved everything about

150
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: this movie. I really did. This one surprised the hell

151
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: out of me how much I liked it. That being said,

152
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 1: I would love to have originally seen this in two thousand,

153
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: to have watched it then, because you know, we live

154
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: in a different time now, a different contry. Twenty four

155
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: years is a very very different time. I would love

156
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: to have seen it first then to add initial thoughts,

157
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: and then seen it now because there are some things

158
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: that you know, some language and things like that that

159
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: would never pass muster nowadays. But that were I think

160
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: was necessary and powerful and it was so this movie

161
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: blew me away. I absolutely thought it was great.

162
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 3: The cast was wonderful.

163
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: Oh, so let's get into that. To say it's an

164
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: impressive cast of actors is an Understatementally. Vindseay Hahn plays

165
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: Maury Bach the white South African exchange student. It was

166
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: an incredibly challenging and nuanced role that she I thought

167
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: knocked out of the park. The two leads, the two

168
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: girls that really headlined this movie. We'll get into the adults,

169
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: but the two girls were so good, yes, and so layered,

170
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: and oh, it was absolutely wonderful. You've seen Lindsay most

171
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: notably on True Blood, where she played Hadley Hale, but

172
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: you've also seen her on Melrose play star Trek Voyager

173
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: and her father. I know it's all about her, but dude,

174
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: her father is the guitarist for Air Supply, and I

175
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: know we can't afford it, but I'm still gonna sit

176
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: here and say I'm all out of love. I'm so

177
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: else with you. Sorry song. I knew every word too,

178
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: I think I was three.

179
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 2: I love that.

180
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: Air Supply very important in Wilfordell's life, so that was

181
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: just an awesome thing to learn. Shaddya Simmons plays Piper Dellums,

182
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 1: the daughter of the family Maury will be staying with,

183
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: and she is so optimistic and happy about possibly gaining

184
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: a sister in the process of all of this. She

185
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: is a Canadian actress who has already appeared in another

186
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: dcon by this time A Saintly Switch, which again I

187
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 1: have not heard of.

188
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 3: I have not heard of that one.

189
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm sure we'll get to it. She also appeared

190
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: in Xenon the zequel yet and also a movie called HS.

191
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: But we're going to get more into that lady.

192
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

193
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: She is married to legendary soccer player Freddie Adou, who,

194
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: at the age of fourteen, became the youngest player ever

195
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 1: signed to Major League Soccer. He was a phenomenon. He

196
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: was everywhere. They were hailing him as the Michael Jordan

197
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: of soccer. He was it. He put soccer on the

198
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: map for a lot of people, and what he accomplished

199
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: at his age is really amazing. And Shadia has since

200
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 1: retired from acting and she is a teacher in Canada.

201
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 3: Wow.

202
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,679

00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 1: He is so good in this movie.

216
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 2: I loved his character.

217
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 3: I mean it was awesome.

Speaker 1: There was not There was not a week link in

219
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: this cast anywhere. I mean usually there's like one or

220
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 1: two you point to and you go like, yeah, that

221
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: wasn't the bit nowhere. They were all amazing.

222
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 2: Even the annoying brother I thought, you're curious, were so good.

223
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 2: I loved him.

224
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: They were the whole group of friends she had together.

225
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,960

Speaker 1: Spase nine DSN, but she later on became a very

229
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 1: big star on the show twenty four Castle and the Orville,

230
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: another just actress who has been working forever and is

231
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: amazingly talented. Another actor worth mentioning is a mod Stoner

232
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: who plays Daniel, Piper's friend. He's in the other two

233
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: story d com Gotta Kick It Up, so he is

234
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 1: in both of them and was no nap of the

235
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 1: Lost Boys in hook He was also on a little

236
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: known show called Boy Meets World. Ah, I'm on Good

237
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 1: Guy and the other thing we were talking about the

238
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 1: brother that's Ron Dellam's actual son and Piper's brother in

239
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: real life, Eric, who does appear in the movie.

240
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's very cool, super cool.

241
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: This film clocks in at eighty seven minutes.

242
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 2: Ah, we're so close, three minutes, three.

243
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: Minutes away from the bull's eyes. Someday we are going

244
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: to watch the worst d common history. But we're not

245
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: gonna care. We're gonna give it ten nineties because it

246
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 1: made ninety minutes long. But that seems like a small

247
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 1: little complaint when this thing is an Emmy winner. It

248
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,719
Speaker 1: was directed by Kevin Hooks, who received obviously very high

249
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: praise for this film and reviews. He's another person involved

250
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: in this movie with just an outstanding career. He started

251
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: as a director on TV shows like Sainte Elsewhere with

252
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: mister Bill Daniels, twenty one, Jump Street with mister Johnny

253
00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 1: Depp twenty one, Jump Street, and er, then shifting to

254
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: movies like the Tommy Davison comedy Strictly Business and the

255
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 1: Wesley Snipes action film Passenger fifty seven. Great movie. He's

256
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 1: still a massive figure in TV directing with episodes of Lost,

257
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: This Is Us, ex Files, and Prison Break all on

258
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 1: his resume. It is written by Paris. I think it's

259
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 1: qualas is how you say it might be Qualls, who

260
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: was a writer on Quantum, Leap and Lewis and Clark

261
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: and moved on from this to The Rosa Park Story

262
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 1: starring Angela Bassett and a more recent rendition of Raisin

263
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 1: in the Sun, the TV movie. One other crew member

264
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: that is certainly worth pointing out is Stanley Clark, and

265
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 1: we need to talk about mister Clark because he is

266
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: a five time Grammy winner who's considered a living legend

267
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: when it comes to the bass and the birth of

268
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: jazz fusion. He played with Miles Davis, Jeff Beck, Ronnie

269
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: Wood and Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones and George Duke.

270
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 1: He is I mean, probably easiest to predict. He was

271
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: the lead of the Stanley Clark Band, makes sense since

272
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: his name is Stanley Clark, perfectly named and was given

273
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: what seems to be free reign to be the most

274
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: Clark he could be for this movie. He did the

275
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 1: music for Boys in the Hood, Romeo Must Die, and

276
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: the TV show Soul Food. So he is a real

277
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 1: bass genius. And I think that since the movie is

278
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: set in the seventies, it plays a big part. So

279
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 1: I think we should talk first of a little bit

280
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: about the music, because it was amazing. I mean the music,

281
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: every song that came on was had so much personality

282
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: in this movie. Yes, I am one of those people.

283
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 1: As much as I would love to sit here and

284
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: be like, oh man, I hear the music in every

285
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:35,079
Speaker 1: movie I watch, I don't. Sometimes, No, it's just kind

286
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: of in the background right for a lot of people,

287
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: it is this was right there in your face. Amazing.

288
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: I felt the music. It was really really cool.

289
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 2: It was and it set like you said, it's set

290
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 2: the tone of the seventies. It also brought in, you know,

291
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,680
Speaker 2: the African drum. Like there was so many times where

292
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 2: you felt the cultural aspect that you needed to everything

293
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 2: really and everything really flow. Didn't feel sometimes you know,

294
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 2: all of a sudden you hear a song and you're

295
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 2: actually hearing it because it just comes out of nowhere.

296
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 2: The way the music is introduced and flows throughout this

297
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 2: whole movie is just it's easy.

298
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:15,319
Speaker 3: It's an easy listen.

299
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, it was very organic. It just kind of

300
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: it worked throughout the entire thing. But it's also good

301
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: time to talk about when the movie was set. So

302
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: the real story was in nineteen seventy seven, and so

303
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: your Disney in two thousand is not only taking a

304
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: swing at subject matter that is very adult, very real,

305
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: very important, but they're also doing a period piece. Right, Yes,

306
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: did you like the seventies vibe?

307
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 2: I felt the wardrobe could.

308
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 3: Have been better.

309
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 2: Oh really, Yeah, I didn't love everything. There were some aspects,

310
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: so I'm thinking specifically about, you know, when they're in

311
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 2: the mall going getting ready for school, you know, the

312
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 2: first day of school, they're.

313
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 3: Doing this this.

314
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 2: In and out of dressing room type thing. I didn't

315
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 2: really love any of that. Out those outfits they either

316
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 2: were so kind of basic. And maybe it's because the

317
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 2: seventies has come back.

318
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 3: In a lot of ways.

319
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 2: And fashion. Well, it's you know when you see bell

320
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 2: bottoms and things like that, you're.

321
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: Saying, you know, like I'm going to know that fashion

322
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: is coming back. I have no idea what you're talking about.

323
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 2: Well, I'm saying this is what I'm thinking. Because it

324
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 2: either looked basic or it looked very cartoony, like I didn't.

325
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 2: There was no middle mountain or feeling of really authentic

326
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 2: seventies where compared to other movies. But then again, it's

327
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 2: the Disney channel that you know, you think about what

328
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 2: what the budget was right and things like that. But

329
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 2: then like I loved what Piper's mom was always wearing.

330
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 2: She always was dressed so beautifully, and so there was

331
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 2: aspects of it that were great, but I feel the

332
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 2: age the kids stuff didn't really look that great. La

333
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 2: I wouldn't have loved that wardrobe for myself.

334
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: So my dad is a big car guy and he's

335
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: passed that on to me. So one of the things

336
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 1: we used to do every time we watch period pieces

337
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: is you look in the background to see if they

338
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 1: messed up any of the cars, Like, wait, the seventies

339
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: and there's a nineteen ninety Dodge Dart behind whatever it.

340
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 3: Is oh my, you know cars that well.

341
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 1: Enough there, I mean enough to know if it's in

342
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: the right decade anyway, and I wasn't wasn't able to

343
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: spot any mistakes. So I though pretty impressive. And again

344
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: there's probably people watching that's like I saw six I

345
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: don't know, but I wasn't able to spot any mistake.

346
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I did the cars, actually I did notice,

347
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 2: you know, when they were in the driveway and things

348
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 2: like that.

349
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 1: It looked great.

350
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

351
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: So we opened the film with shots that, of course

352
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: immediately caught my attention because it looked like My Date

353
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 1: with President's daughter.

354
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 2: First thing on my Sabrina Sea Bill's movie makes sake cameo.

355
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: It does look like My Date with the President's Daughter.

356
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: Establishing shots at d C where the movie is supposed

357
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 1: to take place. But of course it's a dcom, so

358
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 1: it's either shot in Canada or in Utah. I think

359
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 1: they just flip a coin to decide where it's going

360
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: to be shot. This one was shot in Canada. It

361
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: was difficult to see some of the monuments without seeing

362
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,719
Speaker 1: me green screen poorly in front of them, trying to

363
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: awkwardly kiss Elizabeth Arnoaugh, if I'm honest, right there in the.

364
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 2: Beginning, I did think they're establishing shots were a little

365
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 2: bit better than than that green screen.

366
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 1: That's true, that's very much a little better. It was

367
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: by that point it had been three years, and three

368
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,880
Speaker 1: years in film makes a big difference, you could tell

369
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 1: it does. So there's the killer seventies music playing, and

370
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 1: we joined the Dolom family in their home. Now, this

371
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: is interesting because one thing that was really considered groundbreaking

372
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: at the time, and we love that this is based

373
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 1: on a true story, is depicting a black family as

374
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: financially well off. There they're the family of power. And

375
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: in these movies and in a lot of movies that

376
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 1: we've seen, it's an adjustment from what you normally see

377
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: in the media. Like we talked about during Got to

378
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: Kick It Up, it's a common trope of the white

379
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: savior and you know that, oh that it's an underprivileged

380
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: minority group, the white teacher, white whoever comes in and

381
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 1: saves the day, and that is you know, this is

382
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: literally the exact opposite. They took the trope, they flipped

383
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 1: it upside down. It felt fresh and real, and because

384
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: it's based on a true story, it also lends it

385
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 1: to the fact to like, well, why are we only

386
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: depicting them one way when this is based on a

387
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: true story, And this is how it what you know

388
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,120
Speaker 1: what I mean, it was it was great. So yeah,

389
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: we learn right off the bat that the daughter of

390
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 1: the family, Piper, is dead set on getting an African

391
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: transfer student, and her father, the congressman, is not so

392
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,920
Speaker 1: keen on the idea. He eventually gives in. They talk

393
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: about it, and we're immediately then cut to South Africa,

394
00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,119
Speaker 1: where we meet Maury, who is part of the very

395
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: like fancy white family, at a dinner that you can

396
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:11,159
Speaker 1: tell it is for upschedule country club whites in South Africa.

397
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 1: She also wants to be part of the transfer program.

398
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:19,880
Speaker 1: They show something very interesting with the family dynamic right

399
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 1: away because it's her talking to her mom and she says,

400
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: I want to do this. I really want to do this.

401
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 1: Can I go? And her mom literally says, your father

402
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 1: will make the decision. Yes, it's not up to me.

403
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 1: I don't get to decide this year, and she's like,

404
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: but he listens to you. So they're really setting it

405
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: up that it is a patriarchal this their dynamic in

406
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: that family is what the dad says, goes, he makes

407
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: the decisions. That's how it's gonna be right. How did

408
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: all that sit with you?

409
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 4: Just curious?

410
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,639
Speaker 2: Oh that smacked me in the face. Oh my gosh,

411
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 2: I hated it. I wrote it down immediately for a

412
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 2: Sabrina sees whether or we talked about it. I wanted

413
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,879
Speaker 2: to bring it up because it just was. It just

414
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 2: makes me so grateful that I didn't grow up in

415
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 2: that era, because that would be so hard to That's

416
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 2: not the way my parents, you know, raised me. That

417
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 2: that wasn't the family household that I lived in. And

418
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,160
Speaker 2: to it to be also not just said, but said

419
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 2: specifically to her daughter, meaning setting up the next generation

420
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 2: to to have their family handle that was just oh gosh,

421
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 2: it just it just it.

422
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 3: It was sad.

423
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 2: It was already set up this situation of you know,

424
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 2: she doesn't even have a chance to see what it

425
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 2: could be to have a different lifestyle. You know, this

426
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 2: is what she's growing up in and that's all she has.

427
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: That's what this movie does so well though, that we

428
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: to get into it later where it's like you can't

429
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: blame the children for how their parents are raising them

430
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: and the system that they're raised in You can only

431
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 1: hope to break that with the next generation and make

432
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 1: it better. So I thought that that was interesting too,

433
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: is maybe they're trying to break that as well of

434
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: kind of the patriarchy of her family. The whole thing

435
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 1: just worked on a whole bunch of different This is

436
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: one of those movies. This is why I loved it

437
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 1: so much, as it worked on so many levels.

438
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 2: It's brought up so many different topics. Really did to

439
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 2: be discuss, need to be learned from, need to change, evolve,

440
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 2: so many different things.

441
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 3: It was amazing.

442
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 1: So, yeah, she wants to go to the US to

443
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 1: be part of the transfer program. Her parents are also

444
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,479
Speaker 1: having well, her dad especially having trouble with the idea.

445
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: But her dad comes in. He's a police officer and

446
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: he's very excited because they caught an activist, Steve Beko,

447
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: Stephen Bico and they put him in jail, which is

448
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,679
Speaker 1: of course part of a much larger race issue in

449
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 1: the country with apartheid, which is practiced at the time

450
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 1: of legalized racial separation, depriving black people of political and

451
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 1: civil rights. Something we see immediately when a white restaurant

452
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 1: patron kicks a poor bus boy spilled his plate and

453
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: calls him a horrible, horrible name. Oh my, I mean,

454
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 1: they're showing this horrible system and they bring it back

455
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,919
Speaker 1: later in America the same kind of situation that happens,

456
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 1: but right that. I mean, it makes you physically ill

457
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 1: when you see and I.

458
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 2: Don't remember it being as serious and to the point

459
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 2: when I watched it when I was younger, I think

460
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 2: it was more interested in the dynamic of the two

461
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 2: friendships of the teenagers versus the actual worldly issues of

462
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 2: what was going on and how heavy it was, and

463
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:36,479
Speaker 2: it was like, whoa, okay, I'm not remembering, you know, yeah,

464
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 2: and wow, what a what a not great scene.

465
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 3: To have to sit there.

466
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 1: It also shows how good a movie this is, though,

467
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 1: when you can watch it and get one thing out

468
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 1: of it when you're a kid and you're watching the

469
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 1: kids and you're still learning lessons, But when you watch

470
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: it as an adult, it's a whole other level.

471
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 3: Absolutely.

472
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: We talk about that with things like Born Meet's World,

473
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 1: where you know, bad movies. If you watch if it's

474
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 1: a kid's movie and just a kid's movie, adults watch

475
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,159
Speaker 1: it and they hate it. They're never going to get

476
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 1: anything out of it and vice versa if it's an

477
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,719
Speaker 1: adult movie. But you get these movies and shows occasionally

478
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 1: that every generation gets something different when they watch totally

479
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,679
Speaker 1: this was one of them. Really really worked. Did you

480
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 1: know about apartheid and the system and everything before the

481
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: film or.

482
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 2: No, No, I know that that was like I had

483
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 2: a lot of questions when I first watched it.

484
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 1: After sure, well, it also shows the power of movies.

485
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: I know it sounds ridiculous, but for people of my

486
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: generation and a little younger than me, are a little

487
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: older than me, I should say. One of the ways

488
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 1: we learned about South Africa was they were the bad

489
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: guys in Lethal Weapon two. Wow. And it's one of

490
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: those things where you then see it, you hear about it,

491
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,439
Speaker 1: and then hopefully you go and you study it, which

492
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: is what I was googling things the entire time I

493
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 1: was watching this movie. To have that kind of information

494
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: at my fingertips. Yeah, just about the whole system and

495
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: about Stephen Bikoe and all the kind of stuff that

496
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 1: was going on is really incredible, right, So yeah, it was.

497
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: That was It's a tough it's a tough watch, it

498
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 1: really is. Yeah, in a wonderful way, though, I don't know,

499
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: it's hard to explain.

500
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 2: No, it's exactly it's it's tough because you, like I said,

501
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 2: it's a heavier set of storylines than what.

502
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 3: We're used to. It's not just that feel good, easy going.

503
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 2: We're talking about a love interest and a difference of

504
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 2: home life.

505
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 3: We're talking about worldly issues.

506
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 2: We're talking about there's so much, so much weight on

507
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 2: this that it's not it's not the same of as

508
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 2: your every every other day Disney Channel original movie.

509
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 1: No, like this, this is another one of those that

510
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: I feel like they could have Disney could have watched

511
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,120
Speaker 1: and said, this is not a dcom. We should release

512
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: this in theaters. Like I could see I could see

513
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 1: that conversation happening somewhere. Yes, we are now back in Washington.

514
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 1: Piper is very very excited about the African visitor coming soon.

515
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: She's clearly expecting a new best friend. She talks about

516
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 1: having a black sister, even after she learns of apartheid

517
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: from her friend, a term she's heard her congressman dad

518
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 1: talk about a lot, because it is an issue that

519
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 1: is very very important to him. They talk about not

520
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:12,640
Speaker 1: knowing what tribe she's going to be a part of

521
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 1: how different the African cultures are. She's asking her friend

522
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:19,199
Speaker 1: from Nigeria who says something really interesting where she's like, well,

523
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 1: tell me about South Africa. He's like, I'm Nigerian. He

524
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 1: goes as far as I know, that's as far away

525
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 1: from like New York and London. He's like, these are it's.

526
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 2: Completely different cultures.

527
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: Different things. So he's trying to explain stuff to them,

528
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: but not knowing himself a whole lot about it with

529
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 1: their whole friend group, so they don't know what tribe

530
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: she's part of, but they are just she's so excited

531
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,399
Speaker 1: about meeting her and bringing her to her school and

532
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: they're setting all that up. Then we go back to

533
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 1: South Africa and Maury is also getting ready to come

534
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: to America. She's very excited. Her little brother ends up

535
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: bringing a caged bird that he has found, which is

536
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 1: the new family pet, and there's some keep that in

537
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 1: mind because there's some foreshadowing there, and Marie's nanny recognizes

538
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, So Maury's talking to her and says,

539
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:13,919
Speaker 1: you know, I'm going to America. I'm so excited, But

540
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: she's in her mind saying, I hope I get to

541
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: go to New York or la, I think that's gonna

542
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: be a ton of fun. She's like, she literally says,

543
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 1: I'm not there to learn anything. I'm there to have

544
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 1: a good time.

545
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 2: Let's have a good time.

546
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,439
Speaker 1: I'm a kid, I'm gonna have fun, right, And she

547
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: says the name of the family that she's going to

548
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: live with, she says, but she says instead of the Dellum,

549
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: she says Dilom. She says it's the Deloms, and that

550
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: triggers something in her Nanny's mind, who's kind of saying, okay, Delom,

551
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 1: I kind of know the name, and.

552
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 2: That she doesn't really know, and she's like, it's so

553
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 2: insistent of no, it's not Delham, it's just a Loom,

554
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 2: Like you don't actually know, you aren't there, really.

555
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 3: Di Loom.

556
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 1: So she's adamant about it. But yeah, what the thing

557
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: is is you come to find out that nanny actually

558
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: has press clippings from the congressman because he is so

559
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: anti apartheidan and and one of the leaders of the fight,

560
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 1: that she has press. So she knows beforehand that she's

561
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: going Maury is going to be staying with a black

562
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:21,119
Speaker 1: family and is all for It is essentially like, just

563
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: keep your eyes open. I think this is going to

564
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 1: be really really good for you. So she gets on

565
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:33,400
Speaker 1: the plane, she arrives the not the Deloms. The Dellums

566
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: go to pick her up at the airport, and they're

567
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: doing this kind of thing with like, oh, that's got

568
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 1: to be her. And a young girl gets off the

569
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,199
Speaker 1: plane wearing a full African dress who walks right by

570
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 1: her and hugs another family like, okay, I guess she's

571
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: not on the plane, and they say they go to

572
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 1: excuse me, where's Maury Bach, And you hear I'm Maury

573
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 1: back and you turn around and there's of course this

574
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: white girl standing there, and instantly Mary gives the worst

575
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: for impression.

576
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 2: Instantly assumes they're the help, assumes they're you know, they're

577
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 2: they work for the congressman, and just, I mean, the

578
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 2: worst first impression.

579
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,400
Speaker 1: He hands her, hands them tickets and says, I have

580
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 1: two bags. I'll point them out to you. Yeah, just not.

581
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 2: A crappy house guest.

582
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, she says, Now I want to go meet

583
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,400
Speaker 1: the congressman. They're like, okay, we're going to go meet

584
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: the congress. They're playing it very the Dellams are playing

585
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: it very cool because they're just as shocked as anybody else. Yeah,

586
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: there's a great scene where they're leaving the airport and

587
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: Piper says to her mom, like, how did this happen?

588
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: And her mom says, assumptions. She assumed we were going

589
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: to be white, and we assumed she was going to

590
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: be black. We both assume. But when we get her home,

591
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: everything's going to be great, right.

592
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 3: I loved that teaching moment.

593
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 2: Loved it. Awesome assumptions because you come across that every

594
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 2: day in your life, with things eaten on so many

595
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 2: different spectrums. No, I just I really loved that.

596
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 3: I love a good mom teaching moment.

597
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: Yep, And it was great, And I love also still

598
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: the optimism, like, it'll be fine when we get her home,

599
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: and she's gonna be great, she's gonna fit in with

600
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 1: her family. We're not gonna have a problem, right, We're

601
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna roll with this no matter what, we'll

602
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 1: work through it. So obviously, this is not what Maury

603
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 1: was expecting. It is nothing like South Africa. She's she's

604
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: completely taken out of the situation. She goes to the congressman,

605
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 1: he's she's surrounded by by black people. She doesn't know

606
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: what to do, She can't believe she's there. She gets

607
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: back home to the uh Dellham's home and runs upstairs

608
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: and locks herself into the first bedroom she can find.

609
00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 2: Which could that be any more of a weird cho

610
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 2: as weird as in any horror film when the bad

611
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 2: guy comes in and you instantly run upstairs and then

612
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 2: also not into like a restroom, you're gonna go into

613
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 2: someone's bedroom.

614
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 1: And just lock yourself in there. And she chose a

615
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 1: room that.

616
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 2: Was the strangest choice, no vags, you know what's funny.

617
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 1: And again we have to keep in mind that this

618
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 1: was based on a true story. It's such a strange

619
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 1: thing that I can't wait to read the book because

620
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: it seems like that came right from life. Like, it's

621
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: so weird that the writer of the script wouldn't be like,

622
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have her just run in and lock herself.

623
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 1: I feel like when Piper was writing or whoever wrote

624
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 1: the book, was like, and then she just ran into

625
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: the house and locked herself into a room. Yeah, I

626
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 1: don't know. We got to check that out.

627
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 3: So it seems so strange.

628
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 1: Yes, So the movie delves into a lot of difficult

629
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 1: topics we've talked about. We've also talked about there's several

630
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 1: racial slurs that are said throughout the movie, some of

631
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 1: them as teaching moments, some of them simply as hate

632
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 1: filled speeches. Do you think they would do this movie

633
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 1: now with the same dialogue in twenty twenty four.

634
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 2: I don't think they. I don't think they could.

635
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: I don't think it would.

636
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 2: It would pass through. You know, Disney really does do

637
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 2: a lot of you know, diving into things that are appropriate.

638
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: And sure, we've diversity and everything out that with.

639
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 2: Wardrobe as well as dialogue and stuff, and I just

640
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 2: feel they would have a harder time getting selling, you know,

641
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 2: it to everyone to approve and give it a green light.

642
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 3: Because it is.

643
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 2: It was I feel the roughest of dialogue that I

644
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 2: think I've ever recognized on the Channel.

645
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 1: Well, the casual way that they both used the N

646
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: word I in one scene. It was so casual that

647
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: it was like, ooh, I mean, it's to hear that

648
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: at all anymore, but to hear it from two children

649
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 1: right in regular conversation on a Disney movie.

650
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 2: A Disney Channel movie, it's you know, but it also

651
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 2: for me watching it, it seems very normal as far

652
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 2: as how two teenagers would handle that, you know means

653
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 2: either one of them then yeah, right right, that's true.

654
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 3: But I still.

655
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 2: Feel that teenagers have when they're comfortable enough with each other.

656
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 2: And when that dialogue started happening, they had set the

657
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 2: tone that they were getting closer and closer, you know.

658
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 2: And I because I hear girls talking about different things

659
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 2: all the time, you know, with my song girls, they

660
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 2: always forget to know that I'm in the room with them,

661
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 2: and you know, I just hear them talking.

662
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 3: And the way they handle.

663
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 2: Things that they're not they're learning from you each other

664
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 2: and they're not quite sure. It was as simple as that,

665
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 2: you know, talking about it, saying it, and one person

666
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 2: saying no, no, no, no, I would never say that,

667
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 2: you know.

668
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 3: And the way that they went.

669
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 2: Back that exchange to me was how I feel kids

670
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 2: can learn sometimes, you know, having a conversation. If you

671
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,719
Speaker 2: don't ask questions, then you're not going to know how,

672
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 2: You're not going to know what's right now.

673
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 1: It was a very real conversation.

674
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 3: It was so I.

675
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 2: Think that the conversation was tough, but I liked how

676
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 2: it opened the door of you know, when you find

677
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 2: somebody comfortable that you can talk and actually ask questions.

678
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 2: Was great, you know, and the aftermath but got a

679
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 2: little nerve wracking because obviously, when she's talking to her

680
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 2: dad about what she's learning as a parent, you're going

681
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 2: to obviously want to defend, You're going to want to protect,

682
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,800
Speaker 2: of course, but it was also it got I mean

683
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 2: I was i because again there's parts of the movie

684
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 2: that I wasn't. I don't really one hundred percent remember

685
00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 2: from watching it so many years ago.

686
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 3: It was like, oh gosh, what's gonna happen?

687
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 2: Oh gosh, is he got you know it's on this

688
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 2: little tea.

689
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, there are tense moments. There are tense moments

690
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: watching this movie. So yeah, the family is obviously offended

691
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: that she's locked herself in the room. Uh. The congressman,

692
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,440
Speaker 1: who spent you know a lot of his political weight

693
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 1: fighting this type of racist ways and segregation doesn't want

694
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,280
Speaker 1: her around anymore. But again, Maury's father in South Africa

695
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 1: has set it up essentially like and he did it jokingly,

696
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,799
Speaker 1: but it was like, you're gonna hate this. You're gonna

697
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,320
Speaker 1: be back in a week because you're a weak little girls.

698
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,839
Speaker 1: How it kind of red and.

699
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 2: He challenges her. He challenges her.

700
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,479
Speaker 1: And like kind of tussling her hair, like you're gonna

701
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 1: be back in a week because you're gonna hate this

702
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 1: and be homesick. So she picks up the phone to

703
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:45,399
Speaker 1: call her father or parents to kind of say, you're

704
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 1: not gonna believe where I am or what's going on,

705
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 1: and he reminds her, I told you so, and so

706
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 1: she's like, I'm not gonna say anything. I Am going

707
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: to stick it out, even if I'm just stuck in

708
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,760
Speaker 1: the bedroom for a while. Right Meanwhile, the the Dellms

709
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 1: are how having a conversation about getting rid of her.

710
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,839
Speaker 1: What do they do till finally the mom says, she's

711
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 1: got to eat, but I'm not going to bring in

712
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 1: the food. Piper, you bring in the food. Piper goes up,

713
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: picks the lock, pops the door open, and it is

714
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 1: essentially like, because it's.

715
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:17,959
Speaker 2: You're in my room, this is there because it's her room.

716
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, She's like, I think I know I've locked myself

717
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 1: out of my room enough to know how to get in,

718
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,840
Speaker 1: but you're in my room, dude.

719
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,839
Speaker 2: Which is also funny to me that a teenager has

720
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 2: a door that they can lock.

721
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, that seems kind of scary.

722
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,239
Speaker 1: It's also strange. I get they're trying to get her

723
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 1: out of the bedroom, but the only food they bring

724
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:36,720
Speaker 1: her is what French fries in a milkshit.

725
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, just that's it. That's it.

726
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: Not even a burger. Come on. It's like it's like

727
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 1: they got her at number one, but somebody ate the

728
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:46,760
Speaker 1: big mac in the way. So she changed, She changed

729
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: her changes her mind. She doesn't want to admit defeat

730
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 1: in front of her her family, so Maury changes her mind.

731
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 1: She's going to stay, and they slowly start to build

732
00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: a relationship as friends. Because one thing about kids, no

733
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: matter where you're from, what you learn, kids are very malleable.

734
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 1: They adapt very quickly, and they both start to do that,

735
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 1: which is which is a nice thing to say. So

736
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 1: they start to hit it off, even coincidentally finally giving

737
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,800
Speaker 1: each other a gift. They it's like, you were coming,

738
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 1: I bought you this while I was coming here, so

739
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 1: I bought you this, And they were essentially the same thing.

740
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 1: They both bought them like these really nice little necklaces

741
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 1: as a welcome gift. The congressman is still very stressed

742
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 1: out about going on. He hears that her father is

743
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 1: a police officer in South Africa and this is kind

744
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: of exactly who he's fighting against at the time. He

745
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 1: essentially says this line, He's like, I get that apartheid

746
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:47,879
Speaker 1: is very complicated, racism is not, which was an interesting

747
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 1: take on it, where yes, the system itself is very

748
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 1: very complicated. The actual acts behind racism and the thoughts

749
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: behind racism that's not complicated at all. That's just you

750
00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 1: judging based solely on race. So there's a lot of

751
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 1: those really kind of deep, interesting conversations that happened throughout

752
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,359
Speaker 1: this movie. And the thing that always struck me as

753
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 1: I was watching it was it's so easy to get

754
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:14,720
Speaker 1: out of the Disney Channel realm and make this really

755
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 1: heavy and really, I don't want to watch this. There's

756
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 1: nothing enjoyable about this. It's just two hours of teaching

757
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 1: and it's not that at all. It's still at all

758
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 1: still Disney and still young, and times are light and

759
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 1: you're still are rooting for both these kids and really good.

760
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:37,399
Speaker 2: I feel like the mom is really what helps keep

761
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 2: pulling it back into that light. You know, let's make

762
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 2: this a good, a good experience because again I think

763
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 2: she's thinking of her daughter, her kids growing from this.

764
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 2: She sees an opportunity for her husband, for the whole

765
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:58,439
Speaker 2: family to grow from this experience of welcoming somebody who

766
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 2: who has been differently, who has different thought processes, and

767
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 2: hopefully do a nice positive spin on everything. You know,

768
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 2: she seems to for me of the movie, she was

769
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 2: kind of the center of, you know, keeping the family,

770
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 2: keeping things on a good positive track with what the

771
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 2: storyline and you know what her mission was for her

772
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 2: as her family.

773
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 1: With Mariy too, because she comes down for she when

774
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,399
Speaker 1: she finally decides that she wants to stay, she kind

775
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: of apologizes, but not really. It's just like I was

776
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: obviously overwhelmed, I want to say. She sits down a

777
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: breakfast and orders all this random stuff at the breakfast table. Yeah,

778
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: I want breakfast, sausage, eggs, something called bringel rusks. She's

779
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: ordering all this stuff, and the mom very nicely is like,

780
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm going to do the best thing I

781
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:46,879
Speaker 1: can for you. I'm gonna treat you just like I'm

782
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: gonna treat my kids, no better, no worse. You're having

783
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: cheerios this morning of course they can't say that, so

784
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:57,359
Speaker 1: like Generico's, it was sugars, sugaros or something like that. Yeah,

785
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,919
Speaker 1: so it's really great. They are still accepting her into

786
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,279
Speaker 1: the family and now she's learning to be closer to

787
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 1: the pam. They show the kids getting closer as friends,

788
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 1: and then of course they go to exactly what you

789
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,400
Speaker 1: were talking about, the lovely stereotypical, because it worked perfectly

790
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 1: here changing room montage.

791
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 2: Yes, well, this is where we heard a lot of

792
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 2: the music. Yes, they did it. They had a whole

793
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 2: little dance session in the bedroom together. They had the

794
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 2: clothing change montage. Yeah, and we got to hear some

795
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,880
Speaker 2: great music during all of these different little scenes. That

796
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 2: shows the girls getting closer and closer, which I always

797
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 2: love because I think music really brings the whole world together.

798
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 3: It does, that.

799
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 2: Is my take.

800
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 1: I agree, have music, food, and com Yes, so they're

801
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 1: getting together and they finish with an ice cream day

802
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 1: at Barrels. Have you heard of Barrels?

803
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 2: No, but I've My dad's favorite ice cream place was

804
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 2: a place called Farrels.

805
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 1: Okay, So is I think farrels and barrels are related?

806
00:39:58,360 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 1: I believe.

807
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 3: Okay, so of the same chain.

808
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: What is, so what was Farrell's.

809
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 2: So Farrell's was like a big ice cream place that

810
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 2: you'd go.

811
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 1: They changed their name.

812
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 3: They changed it, Okay, so that makes sense. So that

813
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 3: was the thing.

814
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 2: My dad has this amazing story from when my sister

815
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,480
Speaker 2: was really young that he had to take by himself

816
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,799
Speaker 2: seven or eight kids that were like six or seven

817
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 2: years old. And he didn't know, but I think it

818
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,439
Speaker 2: was a Bible study or something my mom had going

819
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,280
Speaker 2: on and she needed all the kids, all the friends'

820
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 2: kids to go and basically just put it in my

821
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 2: dad's lap, like get figure something out, and he took

822
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 2: them to this ice cream place. So his so he

823
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:43,800
Speaker 2: has a great story. But my dad is a huge

824
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:48,000
Speaker 2: ice cream lover. Banana splits are his love language to

825
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 2: no belief, and so this was his favorite place. That

826
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:56,239
Speaker 2: is it gonexist the one that's here in California or

827
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,359
Speaker 2: down in Like it's not necessarily oh see, I think

828
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 2: it's just right out side of it. It was in Downy, Okay.

829
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,239
Speaker 2: I think it's considered La County that one's gone. So

830
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 2: that's the one that I think I think it was,

831
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:10,719
Speaker 2: or maybe I don't. I don't remember what city was

832
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:12,240
Speaker 2: in but it's no longer.

833
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:13,800
Speaker 1: It's gonna be like ed Debevics, where we're going to

834
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: find one left in someplace and have to fly there.

835
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 1: Yeahs say, we went to the one in Chicago. It

836
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: was great.

837
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 2: Oh I went to the one in La so fun.

838
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:25,239
Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh no, that's well, that's We originally went to

839
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:26,839
Speaker 1: the one in Los Angeles, but then it closed down

840
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 1: and there's one left in Chicago we went last year. No, uh, yes,

841
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: so that's what I'm saying. Yeah, it's great. Ah, right,

842
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: But it's it's at Farrells or Barrels that we see

843
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:40,640
Speaker 1: a replay of the same spilling incident that we saw

844
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:45,799
Speaker 1: in South Africa, and another young black waiter spills on

845
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:48,520
Speaker 1: a white customer who's like, dude, don't worry about it,

846
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: not your fault. And the guy's like, can I bring

847
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 1: you anything? And he's like, bring me one of these

848
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: Sundays because they're good, and so she gets to see

849
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 1: essentially the same exact thing happened. Happened. Then, by the way,

850
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 1: we just heard sadly that Farrell's closed their last location

851
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, which is a shame because I just

852
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 1: heard about it and now I can't eat any and

853
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 1: now I'm.

854
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 2: Sad found out what you were missing, and we'll still

855
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:11,120
Speaker 2: miss exactly.

856
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 1: So Mariy is starting to get more into the family.

857
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 1: She's learning more about their culture. They're trying to learn

858
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:30,320
Speaker 1: a little bit about her culture, and she is walking

859
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 1: around the house and she finds the book Roots, So

860
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,880
Speaker 1: she's starting to see kind of the importance of everything

861
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,319
Speaker 1: going on. And this is where I think we need

862
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 1: to talk a little bit about some of the differences

863
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 1: between the real life book and the movie, one being

864
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:48,800
Speaker 1: that these scenes were actually from two visits from two

865
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:52,800
Speaker 1: different foreign exchange students, so they took the two different

866
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 1: and combined them into one character for the script. Both

867
00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 1: were surprised by the Delems being a black family. For

868
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: one of them, it was an absolutely life changing experience

869
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 1: that they show in the movie, but even to a

870
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:09,160
Speaker 1: more extreme because first of all, according to the book,

871
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: the girl's name was not Maury, it was Carrie, which

872
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 1: was most likely changed to give her kind of the

873
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 1: ambiguously racial name. They didn't they you didn't want to

874
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 1: know who she was getting off the plane. The family

875
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 1: didn't want to know who she was getting off the plane.

876
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 1: But this one the actual story and this is from

877
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:27,439
Speaker 1: the real life. Piper's account is that Carrie went back

878
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,720
Speaker 1: to South Africa and became the first student underground activist

879
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,359
Speaker 1: to want to fight to abolish partheid. She then lost

880
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,880
Speaker 1: contact with her and fears that she was actually arrested

881
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,959
Speaker 1: or killed for her actions, which we also learned later

882
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 1: in the movie is what happened to the actual, real

883
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 1: life what they call agitator, what we would obviously call

884
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:50,359
Speaker 1: movement leader Stephen Bill, activist Stephen Bilco. Thank you, now,

885
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 1: none of this, we should say, none of this story

886
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:57,880
Speaker 1: has been confirmed outside of Piper's story, and there's a

887
00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 1: lot of confusion around it when you actually try to

888
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,319
Speaker 1: do some of the research. So take that story for

889
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 1: what it's worth. Hopefully. Of course, this young girl, Carrie

890
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 1: was not arrested or killed back in South Africa, but

891
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 1: apparently Piper did lose contact with her. But it does

892
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,319
Speaker 1: it showed the importance of what was going on in

893
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 1: the country, the danger of what was going on in

894
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:20,720
Speaker 1: the country at the time. So back to the movie itself,

895
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,759
Speaker 1: the girls are now getting closer and closer, even with

896
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,120
Speaker 1: the conversation you and I were having about the racial

897
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: slur where she Piper mistakenly tells her dad that she

898
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: thinks that called her a bad name when she actually didn't.

899
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,240
Speaker 2: She couldn't remember which one she actually used. Was having

900
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:42,000
Speaker 2: a hard time because there was a lot of you know,

901
00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:45,440
Speaker 2: the main point was and I thought that was really interesting.

902
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 3: They had all these names.

903
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:50,359
Speaker 2: But when she said, well, what do they call white people?

904
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 3: Ast like, they just call them white people. They're just white.

905
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,360
Speaker 2: And it was just so crazy that there was she

906
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 2: blurts out six different ways to explain and yet for

907
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 2: you know, so that's kind of where she was.

908
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:05,400
Speaker 3: So she was sort of reeling and not remembering.

909
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:06,839
Speaker 2: Every single name and what it was for which ones

910
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 2: were good and which ones were bad, that kind of thing.

911
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:10,560
Speaker 3: So miscommunication.

912
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think she was overwhelmed with the fact that

913
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 1: we're all It's like, why are there so many categories

914
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:15,760
Speaker 1: and you're just white?

915
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:17,920
Speaker 3: Yes, I'm so crazy.

916
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:18,360
Speaker 2: It was.

917
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:21,919
Speaker 1: It was so they're working through their differences, and they

918
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:23,799
Speaker 1: teach her a lot. They even they go to sea

919
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 1: Freaky Friday in the theaters. I mean, they loved that.

920
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 1: They're having fun. They're sharing hot dogs, they're riding bikes,

921
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:30,760
Speaker 1: they're dancing, they're kids.

922
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're they're learning from each other. She tells them

923
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:36,400
Speaker 2: how what they she couldn't understand what she meant by

924
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,560
Speaker 2: movie that kind. They're teaching each other ling on a

925
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:42,040
Speaker 2: different level as well. You know, it's not all heavy, No,

926
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:45,400
Speaker 2: they're just learning each other's lives and how different they aren't.

927
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 1: Comparing kids, just becoming friends, Yeah, getting to know each

928
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,640
Speaker 1: other despite all their differences, which is what happens when

929
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 1: you throw two kids together. Ninety percent of the time,

930
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,319
Speaker 1: they just become friends, right, which is what's so great about.

931
00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:59,959
Speaker 1: Everything's looking great until all of a sudden, the member

932
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,640
Speaker 1: of the South African Embassy show up at the Doloom's

933
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 1: house and they take her away. She's going home where

934
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 1: it's not safe for you here. We don't like it.

935
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 1: We're sending you home. And she's like, what, I don't

936
00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 1: want to leave. I'm having a great time. And they're like,

937
00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 1: don't care, you're leaving.

938
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:19,200
Speaker 2: This is where my mama bear heart is starting to

939
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:21,919
Speaker 2: fall apart and freak out.

940
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:23,800
Speaker 3: My brain is going what no, what?

941
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 2: No? Everybody pas pas, yeah, this is insane.

942
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 1: Well it's because back in South Africa Stephen Bilko had

943
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:36,399
Speaker 1: been killed. They which is all this is real. They

944
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 1: announced that he had killed himself, I believe when it

945
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 1: turned out that he was actually beaten to death by

946
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:45,719
Speaker 1: the police. So they were afraid that things were international

947
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 1: relations were going to get crazy, that there was going

948
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 1: to be some sort of reprisal, and so they take

949
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,919
Speaker 1: her away. Now this is where there's another great turn

950
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:00,719
Speaker 1: where Congressom Jellums is like, no, that's okay with me.

951
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:03,080
Speaker 1: You don't just get to come into my home and

952
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 1: take this girl who we now consider part of our family,

953
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 1: who we love having around, out of my house, and

954
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 1: you're sending her home if she doesn't want to go home.

955
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 1: So he uses his pull and is able to get

956
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 1: her back, which leads to actually an argument between the

957
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 1: two girls about what's going on in South Africa. It's

958
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:25,800
Speaker 1: not going on in South Africa. It's another great level

959
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 1: of not always being able to see a broken system

960
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 1: when you're in the system right, And so there's that

961
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 1: conversation about what's happening there. Again, it's just it's this

962
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:41,320
Speaker 1: for a Disney Channel movie. It really is on another level,

963
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:41,759
Speaker 1: it really is.

964
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 2: And this scene was done so well by these two

965
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 2: young actors.

966
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:48,960
Speaker 1: Oh they're so good. Because Peper just says, can I

967
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,880
Speaker 1: well why can't I come visit you? Yeah, it's like

968
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:53,799
Speaker 1: you can come here, but I can't go to you

969
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 1: and your country. Don't you find that a little weird? Right?

970
00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:00,319
Speaker 1: How is that not odd to you that I can't

971
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:00,759
Speaker 1: go there?

972
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 2: And Maury, she's not it's not necessarily that she doesn't

973
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 2: want her to come. She just doesn't see how that

974
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,319
Speaker 2: would be a good place for her to come. And

975
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,440
Speaker 2: she's not really one hundred percent sure why, you know

976
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 2: what it's. It's you can tell she is trying to

977
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,360
Speaker 2: figure it out in her own brain, you know, remembering

978
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:21,360
Speaker 2: that she's a teenager. She loves this girl, she loves

979
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:25,120
Speaker 2: this new best friend. Yeah, and how to explain what

980
00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:27,319
Speaker 2: she doesn't? I don't, like you said, she's in the

981
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:30,840
Speaker 2: system herself. She's not really actually seen everything.

982
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 3: For what it is.

983
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:33,600
Speaker 2: And she's a kid, and she's a little one.

984
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 1: She's the kid is supposed to be able to understand

985
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 1: these nuances.

986
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,480
Speaker 2: And I'm sure not everything's one hundred percent explained to her.

987
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,719
Speaker 3: Even this is the.

988
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 1: Way it is, especially in that family with the day.

989
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 3: This is how it's always been, you know, that's.

990
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:49,640
Speaker 1: How it's going to be in my family, And this

991
00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:52,359
Speaker 1: is how it's always going to be. Maury runs off

992
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:54,319
Speaker 1: crying and has a great scene with the congressman who

993
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:56,720
Speaker 1: explains that she can't change how her country is running,

994
00:48:56,960 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 1: but she can change herself to help to change the future,

995
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 1: which is just great. The girls makeup. Maury returns to

996
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:08,640
Speaker 1: South Africa now as an ally. She runs up to

997
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 1: her housekeeper and this time she opens the inside of

998
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:15,279
Speaker 1: her jacket and she has the flag that represents the

999
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:19,360
Speaker 1: new South Africa that they want sewn inside her vest.

1000
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:22,960
Speaker 1: Really really cool. It's the it's a freedom flag. And

1001
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:24,880
Speaker 1: she goes and she frees that bird from the cage

1002
00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,200
Speaker 1: that her brother brought home. At the end of the movie.

1003
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:30,560
Speaker 1: It was very moving. It was really cool, doubly so

1004
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:33,720
Speaker 1: because you know that it's based on a true story.

1005
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:38,480
Speaker 1: Just totally cool. Yeah, So, I mean that's the film. Now,

1006
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:39,480
Speaker 1: did you have a favorite scene.

1007
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:44,520
Speaker 2: I did love it because I, you know, obviously paying

1008
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:48,120
Speaker 2: attention with the different storylines and things that were said.

1009
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 2: I loved the nanny's story and how it came full

1010
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:55,600
Speaker 2: circle to the end, and honestly was watching it and

1011
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 2: when Maury's explaining it is when I caught on of

1012
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 2: you know, I took it as the community of the

1013
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 2: birds in the nest, right, I did not take on

1014
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:11,280
Speaker 2: until Morey talks about the different colors of the birds

1015
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,080
Speaker 2: and them all living together. I just took on the community.

1016
00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:16,480
Speaker 2: There's a lot of birds. It's not just one family

1017
00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 2: in a nest. There's a bunch of them. I took

1018
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:21,360
Speaker 2: on the community aspect. I loved that full circle moment

1019
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,239
Speaker 2: and that it even made more to me in the

1020
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,520
Speaker 2: end than it did in the beginning. I really loved that,

1021
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:28,640
Speaker 2: you know.

1022
00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:29,359
Speaker 3: There.

1023
00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:34,799
Speaker 2: I loved the congressman Congress Delham when he came in

1024
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:38,160
Speaker 2: to fight for her into the embassy. That was such

1025
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:42,160
Speaker 2: an awesome moment because, like you said, this isn't the

1026
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,680
Speaker 2: This is a totally different trope than what we normally see,

1027
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:47,480
Speaker 2: and it was just amazing for him to really end

1028
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 2: up being her personal hero, you know, in this movie

1029
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,960
Speaker 2: was so great. Obviously Piper is a big hero as

1030
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 2: well for her, you know, with their friendship, but him

1031
00:50:57,160 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 2: having his own transformation with her and how he viewed

1032
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:04,040
Speaker 2: the importance of her and in his family now was

1033
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:06,919
Speaker 2: something that I felt was so moving. I loved that part.

1034
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:08,360
Speaker 2: That's probably my favorite scene.

1035
00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 1: My favorite scene is still I mean, I loved. I

1036
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:12,360
Speaker 1: loved all that stuff. I loved every time it was

1037
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,319
Speaker 1: the two of them together. But the scene of the

1038
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:18,000
Speaker 1: mom walking out of the airport, just saying, we all

1039
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,719
Speaker 1: made assumptions. Yes, it was so quick, but there was

1040
00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:23,440
Speaker 1: something about that scene that was so like, we're gonna

1041
00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:26,799
Speaker 1: roll with it, we all. I loved it.

1042
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 2: However, though, when they leave the Congressman's building whatever that

1043
00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:34,920
Speaker 2: was where he was, I can't remember what it's called.

1044
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:38,560
Speaker 2: She is kind of walking just her and Piper this

1045
00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,600
Speaker 2: is some of thees and leaving her really far.

1046
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:43,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's kind of like to catch up.

1047
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:46,719
Speaker 2: I wanted to say one of my favorite things to

1048
00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 2: say when people start whispering around me, excuse me. It's

1049
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:53,960
Speaker 2: hard for me to eavesdrop when you lower your voice. Yeah,

1050
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:56,719
Speaker 2: are there talking about me a little bit? Could you

1051
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:58,160
Speaker 2: guys just slow down a little bit so I.

1052
00:51:58,080 --> 00:51:58,959
Speaker 1: Could hear a little easy.

1053
00:51:59,080 --> 00:51:59,279
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1054
00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,719
Speaker 1: I think they need the uh yeah, I need they

1055
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:05,160
Speaker 1: needed the moment alone.

1056
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:05,479
Speaker 4: Mother and daughter.

1057
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:06,359
Speaker 3: They totally did.

1058
00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 2: But it was just funny because I mean, I feel

1059
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 2: as a parent, I wouldn't leave a kid behind that right,

1060
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:21,640
Speaker 2: who doesn't know where she's going, She'll she'll just follow us.

1061
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:29,399
Speaker 1: Let's do our real reviews. I think I will. Why

1062
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:31,160
Speaker 1: don't I take the five star one this time? Because

1063
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:32,840
Speaker 1: I think I had the one star last time. I

1064
00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 1: believe Yes, So our five star review is from big

1065
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 1: Boy and so the Color Bike Boy. The Color of

1066
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,320
Speaker 1: Friendship is an amazing movie that teaches so many lessons,

1067
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,319
Speaker 1: like the horrors of racism, never judging a book by

1068
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,759
Speaker 1: its cover, and the importance of knowing history. On top

1069
00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:48,840
Speaker 1: of that, the acting is great. A great film for

1070
00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 1: the whole family to enjoy. Couldn't agree with that?

00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:04,840
Speaker 2: so weird. This is by Lilian DS. This movie was

1076

Speaker 1: all the bases. Thank you, Lillian.

1081
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,200

Speaker 1: Yes, its Lillian is a politician who likes to ride

1083

00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 1: play new fun games on our show. We are going

1087
00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 1: to do any love these games called based on a

1088
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 1: true question. Now we know that the Color of Friendship

1089
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:36,480
Speaker 1: and Got to kick it up for that matter, is

1090
00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:39,560
Speaker 1: based on a true story, which is awesome. So we're

1091
00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:41,440
Speaker 1: going to get in some other movies and we have

1092
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:43,480
Speaker 1: to guess if it's based on a true story or

1093
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:47,000
Speaker 1: it's completely made up. An example would be Titanic that's

1094
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:49,680
Speaker 1: based on a true story, while say, Ernest goes to

1095
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:53,600
Speaker 1: Jail is only half based on a true story. Okay,

1096
00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: did you know that half of Ernest Goes to Jails

1097
00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:56,360
Speaker 1: based on a true story?

1098
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:57,319
Speaker 3: I did not know that.

1099
00:53:57,480 --> 00:53:59,840
Speaker 1: It's because I'm lying to you, and once again you're gullible.

1100
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:04,520
Speaker 1: Ernest goes to Jail be based on a true story.

1101
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:09,640
Speaker 2: It sometimes you bring up lots of movies I haven't seen.

1102
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:11,720
Speaker 1: But do you know the earnest movies?

1103
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:12,359
Speaker 2: No?

1104
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,200
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, we're gonna We're gonna do an Earnest movie night.

1105
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:18,840
Speaker 1: We're not because we'd never make it through. For Again,

1106
00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:21,279
Speaker 1: as we've said every time with these games, we do

1107
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:23,680
Speaker 1: not know the answers to any of these. We really don't.

1108
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,400
Speaker 1: So we are going to jump in and uh, a

1109
00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:29,560
Speaker 1: producer will tell us if we're right or not. So

1110
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:33,359
Speaker 1: the first movie Number one, one of my favorite movies.

1111
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:34,560
Speaker 3: Great movies.

1112
00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:35,680
Speaker 2: I love this movie.

1113
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 1: Love this movie. Fifty First Dates starring Drew Berrymore and

1114
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 1: Adam Sandler, where a man falls in love with a

1115
00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:43,240
Speaker 1: woman that suffers from short term memory loss, so every

1116
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:44,840
Speaker 1: morning the man is forced to make or fall in

1117
00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:48,480
Speaker 1: love with him all over again. I know it's based

1118
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:53,759
Speaker 1: on a real syndrome, like short term memory loss is

1119
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:54,919
Speaker 1: absolutely a real thing.

1120
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:57,760
Speaker 2: No, I want to say this is this is based

1121
00:54:57,800 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 2: on a real story.

1122
00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:01,480
Speaker 1: I so want it to be based on a true story.

1123
00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:03,359
Speaker 1: So I'm going to agree with you because I want

1124
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:03,960
Speaker 1: it to be real.

1125
00:55:04,080 --> 00:55:05,840
Speaker 2: I'm going to go as far as like I feel

1126
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:08,040
Speaker 2: like I remember when they were doing press for it,

1127
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 2: Adams mentioned something, I.

1128
00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,160
Speaker 3: Feel like you've heard this before.

1129
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:13,840
Speaker 1: Oh I hope you're right.

1130
00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 3: It's probably gonna ruin my life right now.

1131
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:17,320
Speaker 4: No, it's a true story.

1132
00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:23,480
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, I love that. The next one is

1133
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:25,960
Speaker 1: another is a different type of romantic comedy. It's called

1134
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:27,279
Speaker 1: the Texas Chainsaw.

1135
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:28,560
Speaker 3: Massacre, Super Romantic.

1136
00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:31,040
Speaker 1: On their way to see their grandfather's grave, Sally and

1137
00:55:31,040 --> 00:55:33,600
Speaker 1: her paraplegic brother run into a group of crazed, murderous

1138
00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:35,840
Speaker 1: outcasts and are attacked by a chainsaw wielding man with

1139
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:40,200
Speaker 1: a mask made of human skin. No, I'm hoping it's No.

1140
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:43,080
Speaker 1: I think it's an amalgam, amalgamation of a bunch of things,

1141
00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:44,799
Speaker 1: so like the mass made of human skin I think

1142
00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:47,799
Speaker 1: is ed gean. I think it's at so, But I

1143
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:51,200
Speaker 1: also feel like I've heard that maybe it's real. I'm

1144
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,800
Speaker 1: gonna say based on my I'm gonna say, based on

1145
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:54,400
Speaker 1: a true story.

1146
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:57,200
Speaker 4: Well, good luck sleeping tonight, Sabrina, it's a true story.

1147
00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, no, no, Yes.

1148
00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:12,800
Speaker 1: And now our third movie is Cocaine Bear. A giant

1149
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:15,400
Speaker 1: black bear consumes a significant amount of cocaine and embarks

1150
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:18,240
Speaker 1: on a drug field rampage through a Georgia forest, endangering

1151
00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 1: the lives of cops, criminals, and tourists.

1152
00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,319
Speaker 2: I could totally see that happening. I would feel so

1153
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:24,440
Speaker 2: terrible for the bear.

1154
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:26,879
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I read something that this is based

1155
00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:27,600
Speaker 1: on a true story.

1156
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:29,000
Speaker 3: Yes, I think so too.

1157
00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:32,480
Speaker 4: It is a true story.

1158
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:37,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, bear had something had to have happened to that

1159
00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:40,440
Speaker 2: for Bear, though, Do you have any idea how clean

1160
00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:41,600
Speaker 2: that bear's den would be?

1161
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:47,280
Speaker 1: Oh, I've been up for four days cleaning. Okay, Number

1162
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:50,200
Speaker 1: four cheaper by the dozen the Bakers? Was it really

1163
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:52,439
Speaker 1: the Baker's There was a Baker's dozen? Wow? I never

1164
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:55,759
Speaker 1: got that the Bakers have compromised their careers to raise

1165
00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:58,200
Speaker 1: twelve children. But when the mom writes a parenting memoir

1166
00:56:58,239 --> 00:56:59,520
Speaker 1: and goes on a book tour, the dad is in

1167
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:02,120
Speaker 1: charge of the children and the household falls into chaos.

1168
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:10,040
Speaker 2: True, I'm gonna say this seems like it could easily happen.

1169
00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:12,879
Speaker 1: But that's why. Don't you think producer Jensen threw one

1170
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:14,880
Speaker 1: in to mess us up? I'm gonna say false.

1171
00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:18,920
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm thinking it's a true story.

1172
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:22,800
Speaker 1: Oh man, yikes, yikes.

1173
00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:23,840
Speaker 3: Oh gosh.

1174
00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:27,000
Speaker 1: And finally number five, Oh.

1175
00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 3: My worst enemy. I hate this movie.

1176
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:33,680
Speaker 1: Oh it's such a good movie. Completely the local beach,

1177
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,040
Speaker 1: killing beach goers and sending a group of fishermen on

1178
00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:39,120
Speaker 1: a journey to protect the city Sabrina.

1179
00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:43,880
Speaker 2: Well, you can see how that could be pulled from anything, right,

1180
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:47,520
Speaker 2: because there's so many shark attacks. The ocean is not

1181
00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:51,320
Speaker 2: your friend. You should not just go in the ocean.

1182
00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 2: I'm so scared of sharks. I'm gonna say true, No,

1183
00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:55,920
Speaker 2: it can't.

1184
00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:58,760
Speaker 1: Be no, Okay, So I happen to know for a

1185
00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:02,360
Speaker 1: fact that Peter Bench wrote this book based on seeing

1186
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:05,360
Speaker 1: a twenty five to thirty foot great white shark hanging

1187
00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:08,480
Speaker 1: that fisherman caught it off of the coast.

1188
00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:11,200
Speaker 2: That's not a true story. That's just saying, oh wow,

1189
00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:12,640
Speaker 2: there's big sharks out there.

1190
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:16,160
Speaker 1: Well, let's see what accounts as so Jensen.

1191
00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:18,120
Speaker 4: They are all true stories.

1192
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:24,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, talk about a score, talk about something that will

1193
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:25,880
Speaker 2: live with you forever.

1194
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:31,520
Speaker 1: Wow, oh wow. Oh Texas chainsaw maskers real. No, I

1195
00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:34,400
Speaker 1: think I would rather face cocaine bear than the Texas

1196
00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:35,640
Speaker 1: chainsaw massacre people.

1197
00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:41,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, are you kidding me? Oh my gosh, I would unbelieve.

1198
00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:43,360
Speaker 2: I mean, the cocaine bear would be very scary.

1199
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:46,600
Speaker 1: It would be well again, it's just oh my god. Yeah,

1200
00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 1: crazy man on the street, se vcr and everything. All right,

1201
00:58:51,240 --> 00:58:51,800
Speaker 1: so so.

1202
00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:55,480
Speaker 2: Much anxiety now, thank you, Jensen, thank you so much.

1203
00:58:55,720 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 1: Let's do some Sabrina seas this time.

1204
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:04,640
Speaker 3: Oh man today. Okay.

1205
00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:07,160
Speaker 2: So one of the first things that happened, right, and

1206
00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:09,040
Speaker 2: I thought you were gonna because it was just so.

1207
00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:11,200
Speaker 3: Funny, the little kid.

1208
00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 2: That's as soon as the dad Cornerson Della is coming up.

1209
00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:18,919
Speaker 2: When the little kid's looking out the window and he's

1210
00:59:18,920 --> 00:59:20,920
Speaker 2: got that. Is it like a little telescope because it

1211
00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 2: wasn't binocular? Okay, little he's got that going, and it's

1212
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:26,919
Speaker 2: like the street.

1213
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:27,120
Speaker 3: Is right there.

1214
00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:30,720
Speaker 2: He was so funny because it was.

1215
00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:32,440
Speaker 3: So cute, like the little little kid thing.

1216
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:34,640
Speaker 2: That was just funny, like why do you need that

1217
00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:36,919
Speaker 2: the street is right out in front of your door?

1218
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:38,439
Speaker 3: It's not way down there.

1219
00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:41,400
Speaker 2: I did say the fleeing up the stairs that was

1220
00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:43,240
Speaker 2: part of it because I thought that was kind of funny.

1221
00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:49,840
Speaker 2: Before that, the nanny when she has that when remember

1222
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:56,520
Speaker 2: Maury's brother finds the flagg the flag and she grabs it,

1223
00:59:56,600 --> 00:59:59,160
Speaker 2: puts it away. You obviously know it's hers, you know,

1224
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:03,240
Speaker 2: right from then the car is all of two feet

1225
01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:05,960
Speaker 2: away from her when she pulls it out, like it

1226
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:08,600
Speaker 2: was the timing, And obviously that's just because of what

1227
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:10,520
Speaker 2: they were needing for the scene and everything, But it

1228
01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:12,880
Speaker 2: was just kind of funny to me that she is

1229
01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:14,520
Speaker 2: trying to hide it but then pulls it out as

1230
01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:15,840
Speaker 2: soon as people could.

1231
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:17,000
Speaker 3: They're not even far away.

1232
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,840
Speaker 2: And then I wanted to see because I know you

1233
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:25,200
Speaker 2: do click into the voiceover type stuff that happens. It

1234
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:30,120
Speaker 2: was almost nauseating during the time where they were going

1235
01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:34,000
Speaker 2: from the dance to the dancing together. It was the

1236
01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:38,600
Speaker 2: montage sequence, right, like the multiple montages the dancing into

1237
01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:41,840
Speaker 2: the changing of outfits into that following scene.

1238
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,000
Speaker 3: So it's three montage scenes that happened.

1239
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:50,200
Speaker 2: The amount of the voiceover giggling started to irritate me, So, okay,

1240
01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:53,120
Speaker 2: get it, they're out of fun. Please stop making them.

1241
01:00:53,160 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 2: It's like they're showing them giggle bonding. I love to laugh,

1242
01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:03,840
Speaker 2: So I don't know why irritated me, but it was

1243
01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:04,680
Speaker 2: just for so long.

1244
01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:07,000
Speaker 3: It was a good four or five minutes. It felt

1245
01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:08,919
Speaker 3: like it kept going on and on.

1246
01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:14,160
Speaker 2: And then I did see Oh, the South African Embassy.

1247
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:18,320
Speaker 2: That whole section was just kind of crazy to me.

1248
01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:21,640
Speaker 2: How they had this young girl who it was such

1249
01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:24,320
Speaker 2: a big deal. First of all, I can't believe she

1250
01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:26,200
Speaker 2: was able to leave, and I know this is a movie,

1251
01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:28,959
Speaker 2: but the fact that they were letting her leave when

1252
01:01:29,320 --> 01:01:33,200
Speaker 2: she's in their care, right, that whole situation was just

1253
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:37,880
Speaker 2: so crazy and wild to me that you know, they've

1254
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:41,439
Speaker 2: got this young girl who's in their care. They don't

1255
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:47,320
Speaker 2: know these embassy people. There's no identification check, there was nothing.

1256
01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:48,840
Speaker 2: And then now they're going to take her to a

1257
01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:51,120
Speaker 2: building and just didn't seem like there was enough questions

1258
01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:54,800
Speaker 2: that were happening. And then my overall thing with this

1259
01:01:54,880 --> 01:01:57,880
Speaker 2: movie again, I loved this movie. This is me just

1260
01:01:58,280 --> 01:02:01,360
Speaker 2: really trying to find sure, right because there was so

1261
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:05,560
Speaker 2: much that was so epic, the idea, like I said

1262
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:09,760
Speaker 2: at the beginning, having an exchange student, really thinking about

1263
01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:13,520
Speaker 2: what that meant. In the seventies, it was wild to

1264
01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:17,560
Speaker 2: let your kid go right, you're talking, because there's no internet,

1265
01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:21,440
Speaker 2: you're talking. They did they obviously, I would think there

1266
01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:24,280
Speaker 2: was at least a picture of the family or something,

1267
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:28,200
Speaker 2: and you got at least some kind of packet of paper.

1268
01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, it was just written down. It's a

1269
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:34,120
Speaker 1: congressman's family. That's probably all they needed to know.

1270
01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:37,959
Speaker 2: It's so crazy to allow your kid to go live

1271
01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 2: somewhere where you don't know anything about them, right, And

1272
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:45,480
Speaker 2: nowadays you could get someone's name, you could look them up,

1273
01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:49,000
Speaker 2: you can, you can have conversations back and forth, way

1274
01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:50,400
Speaker 2: before you they go anywhere.

1275
01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:51,760
Speaker 1: It was the seventies though.

1276
01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:55,800
Speaker 2: It was the seventies and the way that that there

1277
01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:57,800
Speaker 2: was only a limited amount, right, Yeah, every time she

1278
01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:00,680
Speaker 2: makes a call, she's you know, for we'll talk about

1279
01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:01,560
Speaker 2: their their phone bill.

1280
01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:03,560
Speaker 1: Oh, the bill would have been crazy. Yeah, bill would

1281
01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 1: have been crazy.

1282
01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:06,120
Speaker 2: Every time she makes the calls, it's like a collect

1283
01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:08,280
Speaker 2: call to get back to her, you know.

1284
01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:09,080
Speaker 3: Oh gosh.

1285
01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:11,080
Speaker 1: Just keep in mind in the seventies, it was like wait,

1286
01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:13,200
Speaker 1: by the time you were ten, you ran outside and

1287
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:15,560
Speaker 1: your mom went be back by dinner. Yes, that was it.

1288
01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:18,600
Speaker 2: When the lights come on, right, yeah, the street lights

1289
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:20,040
Speaker 2: come on, your lights come out right.

1290
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:22,920
Speaker 1: See in twelve hours how it was. And if you

1291
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:27,560
Speaker 1: wanted to drink, he found somebody's hoes. Thank you for that.

1292
01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:31,240
Speaker 1: And now we must rate our film. As you know,

1293
01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:33,760
Speaker 1: we always read our movies based one of ten, one

1294
01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:36,040
Speaker 1: being the worst, ten being the best. I don't know

1295
01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:37,440
Speaker 1: why we do it the other way around. That wouldn't

1296
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 1: make any sense. And so we have to figure out

1297
01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:43,720
Speaker 1: should this be one out of ten d com Emmys Washington,

1298
01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:50,440
Speaker 1: DC based Establishing Shots, seventies based jams, Barrel's Ice Cream Sundays,

1299
01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:56,200
Speaker 1: Disco Dancing montages, or Freaky Friday cross promotions? What do

1300
01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:56,560
Speaker 1: you like?

1301
01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:01,840
Speaker 2: I think we got to go because it is just

1302
01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:04,800
Speaker 2: so incredible that this dcom one an Emmy.

1303
01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:06,600
Speaker 3: I think we got to go dcom Emmys.

1304
01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:10,600
Speaker 1: Okay, you got it. So how many out of ten

1305
01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:12,600
Speaker 1: dcom Emmys do you give this movie?

1306
01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:17,720
Speaker 2: I mean, I feel this was right up there to

1307
01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:20,360
Speaker 2: the last one that I gave attend to.

1308
01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:21,960
Speaker 3: I loved this movie.

1309
01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:26,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was so moving and it's It's

1310
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:31,000
Speaker 2: definitely a movie you know, when Monroe is at a

1311
01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:35,640
Speaker 2: good age to have some kind of learning experience, I

1312
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:39,479
Speaker 2: will love I will want to show her this movie.

1313
01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:41,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, so you get you get a ten.

1314
01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:43,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going with a ten.

1315
01:04:43,320 --> 01:04:45,160
Speaker 1: Now you know me, I will never give a ten.

1316
01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:48,200
Speaker 1: I can't tend to me as perfection. But this is

1317
01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:51,640
Speaker 1: the most solid nine point five dcom Emmys that you

1318
01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:53,919
Speaker 1: can give it. I mean, this was This movie really

1319
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:56,960
Speaker 1: surprised me because I knew nothing about it. It so

1320
01:04:57,240 --> 01:05:00,400
Speaker 1: easily could have gone the quote unquote stereo tip called

1321
01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:03,880
Speaker 1: decom route. Even with the same subject matter, they could

1322
01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:07,439
Speaker 1: have gone much lighter with it than they did. Much

1323
01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:10,880
Speaker 1: less about the parents, much less about, uh, you know,

1324
01:05:10,960 --> 01:05:14,360
Speaker 1: the actual system of racism in place in South Africa,

1325
01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:18,800
Speaker 1: and more of the wacky white girl lives what's going on?

1326
01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:21,720
Speaker 1: You know, lives in is living with a black family

1327
01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:23,640
Speaker 1: in America. They could have gone that route and they didn't.

1328
01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 1: I love that they played against that. This is a

1329
01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:29,040
Speaker 1: solid nine point five for me. This movie really surprised me.

1330
01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:29,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1331
01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:33,560
Speaker 2: I loved this movie far more than what I loved

1332
01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:35,880
Speaker 2: when I loved it back when it first came up.

1333
01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:38,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean watching it at a different level.

1334
01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:43,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yes, such a better appreciation for everything that this

1335
01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:47,480
Speaker 2: movie rings, you know to the audience. Yes, it was wonderful.

1336
01:05:47,560 --> 01:05:48,840
Speaker 2: I love loved.

01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:05,320
Speaker 1: with Shaddya Simmons that we're doing two thousands Quints, which

1342
01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:09,160
Speaker 1: is a movie about Quinn tuplets. And I'm assuming she

1343
01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:12,280
Speaker 1: plays four roles or I don't know. We'll find out.

1344
01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:14,000
Speaker 1: I don't even want to. I'm excited to even find

1345
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:15,920
Speaker 1: out because I have no idea. Well, Quints is five,

1346
01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:20,960
Speaker 1: no quiz, Yeah, you're right, Quad's is four? Yeah, Oh

1347
01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:23,080
Speaker 1: my god, she plays five different roles. I was never

1348
01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:27,520
Speaker 1: good with math when it comes in word form. So

1352
01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:38,360
Speaker 1: to have a great conversation I'm so excited with one

1353
01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:40,520
Speaker 1: of the stars of the Color of Friendship, Lindsay Hahn.

1354

Speaker 1: So make sure you go over there and check it

Speaker 1: out because the interview is amazing. Here's a clip.

1356
01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:50,600
Speaker 5: At that point, there wasn't really a lot of touchstones

1357
01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:53,400
Speaker 5: for the accent. You know, we didn't have Trevor Noah,

1358
01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:55,520
Speaker 5: we didn't have like a lot of South African stuff.

1359
01:06:55,560 --> 01:06:58,240
Speaker 5: So I tracked down this movie from Hollywood Video called

1360
01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:02,120
Speaker 5: If the Gods Were Monsters, because that was really the

1361
01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:06,200
Speaker 5: only way that you could listen to an authentic South

1362
01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:09,920
Speaker 5: African accent if you didn't know anyone. And it was,

1363
01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:13,960
Speaker 5: first of all, great movie and I never returned it, and.

1364
01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:17,000
Speaker 1: I love that.

1365
01:07:17,880 --> 01:07:22,480
Speaker 2: VHS or a DVD HS. Back in the day, it

1366
01:07:22,520 --> 01:07:23,600
Speaker 2: was the only copy they had.

1367
01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:27,840
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for joining us, and we will

1368
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:30,560
Speaker 1: see you times five next time. Bye everybody.

1369
01:07:30,600 --> 01:07:42,120
Speaker 2: Bye,
