As a senior in 70 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: high school, and I really didn't have a whole lot 71 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 2: of direction, but I loved movies. My father took me 72 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 2: to a lot of movies growing up when I was 73 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 2: very young, a lot of inappropriate movies I shouldn't have 74 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 2: gone to, like, you know, Basic Instinct when I was 75 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 2: like seven years old. Mom wasn't too happy about that one. 76 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 3: Wow, that's a tough one of. 77 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 2: Them, exactly. But I had a passion for movies. I 78 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 2: think I just loved the escapism of it, and you know, 79 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 2: just getting into another world and into the characters, into 80 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 2: the stories. And so I thought, Hey, maybe I could 81 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 2: go to NYU Film School. That shouldn't be too hard 82 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 2: to get into. Wow wow yeah with no with nothing 83 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 2: yeah nothing really good looks on my application other than 84 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 2: my good looks and an essay about The Basketball Diaries, 85 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 2: which was one of my favorite movie. 86 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 3: Phenomenal movie that Lala, do you know who is that? No, 87 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 3: I've never seen you were zero years old when that 88 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 3: movie became. 89 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 2: Marky Mark was in it and that was where that 90 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 2: was when he transitioned from Marky Mark to Mark Wahlberg 91 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 2: and Leo. Oh this guy can act. Leo obviously crushed it, 92 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: crushed it. It was amazing, great movie. Now it's a 93 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 2: movie about a New York poet who did a lot 94 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 2: of drugs addiction. 95 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, a side note and then we'll 96 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 3: come back. But Eric Weinstein, who was he, who's his assistant, 97 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 3: who now is his partner, met Mark on that movie 98 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 3: as his coach for drug coaching, like you know, oh yeah, 99 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 3: for just you know, because he had been a heroin 100 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 3: you know, former addict. So that's what. 101 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would assume you were a pretty big fan 102 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: of that movie as well. 103 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, that movie was phenomenal. 104 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 2: It really, it really was. So anyway, I managed to 105 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 2: get into NYU by the skin of my teeth, not 106 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 2: into Tish.

You know, 380 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: as an actor that's been in the industry for twenty 381 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 2: two years. 382 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 3: I'll say on behalf of recall say that the crews 383 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 3: are very experienced. They're limited though there's only so many 384 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 3: of them, so once our movie starts, if you come 385 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 3: in after the fact, you kind of have to bring 386 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 3: a lot of people in. So just because there's not enough. 387 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: It was less about the crew and more about maybe 388 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: the director or other people. 389 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 3: Hold on, oh that was we don't drop the tea, 390 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 3: but I think she spilled the tea or he dropped 391 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 3: it or something.
