They just can fly by. 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:58.760 They stopped, they landed, The people in Blaine went on 0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:01.400 board the ship, pot lucked, dinner. 0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:02.760 And Furious seven. 0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:05.480 You risk life and limb to say, the free world? 0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:06.320 And what do they give you? 0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:09.320 Jello and a bad seventies TV show? 0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:15.760 But up ut yesterday, I had never seen being John Malkovich. Now, 0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:18.920 when you say that I can be somebody else, what 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:19.839 do you mean exactly? 0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:24.960 Well, we mean exactly that we can put you inside 0:04:25.000 --> 0:04:27.960 someone else's body for fifteen minutes. 0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:30.800 Can I be anybody that I want to be? 0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:37.520 Well, you, actually you can be John Malkovich. 0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:47.120 It's perfect. It's my second choice, but it's wonderful. I'm 0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:51.479 a fat man, i am sad, and I'm two hundred dollars. 0:04:53.160 --> 0:04:58.599 Oh oh h yes, yes. Struggling puppeteer Craig Schwartz John 0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:02.480 Kuzak is married to animal rescue at Lottie and almost 0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:07.120 unrecognizable Cameron Diaz. Anxious, insecure, and perhaps a little depressed, 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:10.640 Craig applies for a filing job at a mysterious company 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:13.320 located on the seven and a half floor of a 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:16.919 New York skyscraper. Craig gets the job, falls in love 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:21.040 with a seemingly unattainable Maxine Katherine Keener, and happens to 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:24.119 come across a portal into the body of acclaimed actor 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:27.960 and thespian John Melkovich played by John Malkovich. From a 0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:31.479 script by the enigmatic Charlie Kauffman the feature debut of 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:34.880 Spike Jones. It's a miracle this film ever got made. 0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:38.160 A puppeteer finds a portal into the body of John Malkovich, 0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:42.200 which allows customers access to Malkovich for fifteen minutes before 0:05:42.240 --> 0:05:45.800 being spat out alongside the new Jersey Turnpike. Yet welcome 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:49.359 to the world of Charlie Kaufman, Michelle Brazier. Have you 0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:52.839 ever entered the mind of John Malkovich or any celebrity 0:05:52.839 --> 0:05:53.320 for that matter. 0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:56.520 I never have, and you know, watching this, I really 0:05:56.800 --> 0:05:59.559 regretted it. I thought so. The moral of this story 0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:02.560 seems to be that you should enter into John Malkovich 0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:05.320 if you get the chance, nothing will go wrong and 0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:08.120 it will be good. So, yeah, no, I haven't have you. 0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:11.920 No, No, I've come close. When I'm at the door, 0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:14.040 when I'm kneeling down and I go I'll go through 0:06:14.040 --> 0:06:14.560 the portal. 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:15.839 I'm scared of the slide. 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:19.920 Yes, I'm spooked. I like the there. 0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:22.159 I hate being wet. It looks wet in there. 0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:24.520 It looks wet. Once you get there, it seemed like 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:26.000 a reasonably pleasant destination. 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.120 That's true. That is true. You know you've got a 0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:29.120 weigh the pros and the. 0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:32.600 Col You certainly do. Michelle, thank you so much for 0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:35.560 being on. You ain't see nothing yet. We've been negotiating this. 0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:37.240 It feels like for quite a while. 0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:41.960 Our text message through it is simply just cancelations and 0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:44.400 reorganizations of doing this podcast. 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:47.960 Yes, so thank you so much for finally getting here 0:06:48.160 --> 0:06:50.360 and for being in the country, because you've been cheering 0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:51.360 around everywhere. 0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:54.599 Yes, and this is a film. 0:06:54.640 --> 0:06:58.120 I'm so excited because you know, after people say I 0:06:58.120 --> 0:07:00.640 haven't seen this film, I'm like, yeah, okay, then fair enough, 0:07:00.720 --> 0:07:02.920 let's watch that film. But this is when you said 0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:06.839 you hadn't seen being That kind of blew my mind 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:09.440 a little bit because I would have thought, and you know, 0:07:09.560 --> 0:07:11.360 we'll getting to whether you liked it or not soon, 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:13.400 but I would have thought this was one of those 0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:15.360 films that maybe would have been like a seminal film 0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:15.600 for you. 0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:18.480 I think it should have been, and I I when 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.000 you look at me, you you might conclude that this 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:23.120 was one of the main ingredients. But I had not 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:25.520 seen it, which is a shock. But I think I 0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:29.920 thought I thought it was a drama for starters. I 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:31.920 thought it was a drama. I didn't know it was 0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:34.160 Charlie Kaufman. I didn't know it was Spike Jones. I 0:07:34.200 --> 0:07:36.280 didn't know any of that stuff. I was like, oh, yeah, 0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:38.960 that sounds like I don't know, like one of you 0:07:38.960 --> 0:07:41.200 know that. I put it in the same world as 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:46.640 like that movie that's about Alan Turing, that drama about 0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:49.280 the guy, you know, the one, Yeah, another one. It's 0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:51.160 not I know everyone's annoyed now, is it. But I 0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:53.040 was like, oh, you know, those movies that are probably 0:07:53.040 --> 0:07:55.080 important to see, but like I can't really be bothered 0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:57.440 sitting through the drama of it all. Yeah, that kind 0:07:57.440 --> 0:07:59.400 of that's what I thought it was. I didn't know 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:04.080 it was just like surreal, absurd, big swing of a film. 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:06.520 It is a massive swing, and like I said, it's 0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:09.640 and I think it was. You know, we'll talk about 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:10.960 whether you enjoyed it them not soon. I want to 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:13.920 talk about your three favorite films. But I think just 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:17.520 the celebration that this film got made, like it's fantastic. 0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:20.520 It's if you if you did not enjoy the film, 0:08:20.520 --> 0:08:23.000 if you I didn't quite work for me, celebrate the 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:24.720 fact that this film has got made. 0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:27.400 That somebody said, yeah, somebody said yes, let's make this. 0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:30.320 I love a big swing. I really love a big swing. 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:33.800 I've really been enjoying them lately. I loved Saltburn. I 0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:36.200 love anything that's just like I'm just going for it. 0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:38.760 I'm like, yeah, let's go, let's fucking go. 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:41.240 That's it. And it's kind up a little bit in 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:43.600 the podcast recently where you know, people are saying, oh, 0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:47.080 the only movies that have IP get made, and it's 0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:49.760 you know, I can understand that, and Marvel films and 0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:54.160 all this stuff, but there's still like they're still yogist 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:58.560 making films, and they're still you know, Reuben austronm banking 0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:02.240 on his name you direct or Swedish and they're making 0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:05.439 like still great films, and put On Sanderson is still 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:07.719 making great films. And there are still and the new 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:11.080 filmmakers all the time coming through. You can't because they 0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:13.760 can't start with making it a Marvel film or you know, 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:16.440 Handed the Keys to Barbie or whatever. You still have 0:09:16.480 --> 0:09:19.840 to work out and those those filmmakers have to make 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:22.040 a making I think, maybe more interesting films. 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.520 I think so well. I mean it's interesting about like 0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:27.680 the Substance, which I also adored, and that was her 0:09:27.960 --> 0:09:31.160 second feature, I believe, but I think also a second 0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:33.000 big swing. I think the first one was also kind 0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:35.400 of a big maybe less of a high concept, but 0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:38.079 also a really big swing. I just am really interested 0:09:38.120 --> 0:09:42.440 in that, Like, yeah, let's just make a really weird thing. 0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:44.679 It is really nice, and people don't go and see it? 0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:46.920 What's that? What was the one before? Kinds of Kindness 0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:51.000 with poor things, poor things? I adored poor things, And 0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:53.560 even if you hated poor things, it's like, well at 0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:54.920 least it's new. 0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:57.320 Well exactly, and you go. I mean, the favorite was amazing, 0:09:57.320 --> 0:09:57.640 and the. 0:09:57.520 --> 0:09:59.640 Lobster favorite was so good. 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:02.959 It's my favorite of his is so good, and and 0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:06.400 and Ruben Asland the Triangle of Sadness was. 0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:08.920 Like, oh my god, being in the cinema for Triangle 0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:11.200 of Sadness in that I won't ruin it, but in 0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:14.440 that particular scene and the third Active Triangle of Sadness 0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:16.640 being a completely different film, but maybe the best one 0:10:16.760 --> 0:10:17.800 in the three films. 0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:20.199 Three these three acts in that film, and they all 0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:23.760 feel like different it could potentially be different films. It's 0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:26.160 it's so good enforce measure, Like it's just. 0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:31.400 Everything everywhere all at once. Big swings, swing, big girls, 0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:32.760 let's go keep going. 0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:35.920 Past Lives maybe not the biggest as a swing, but 0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:38.760 still like it's a beautiful original film. 0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:40.640 So that's what I like. I like something that's like 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:43.600 either Past Lives or the substance. I want to see 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:46.480 something that is tiny or something that is enormous. I'm 0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:50.000 not interested in the middle at this current moment, in 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:51.280 my current. 0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:55.480 Life, current life and your next life. Who knows films 0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:55.880 you'll be. 0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:59.320 Into once I'm inside John Malkovich, Oh well, probably be 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:00.720 into all kinds of different movies. 0:11:00.760 --> 0:11:03.000 The way this podcast episode ends, if you look over 0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:05.600 in the corner the cupboard, this a little slightly a jar. 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:10.640 Oh yeah, it's actually Roves mind. Actually couldn't, I couldn't 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:10.960 find them. 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:12.960 Always wanted to be in. 0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:17.440 I've been so close so many times. Let's so about 0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:21.880 your three favorite films. I'm so glad that Paddington Too. 0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:25.160 I've been raving about Paddington too. I'm doing Peter and 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:27.920 the Starcatch at the moment, and you know, because there's 0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:33.000 there's twelve actors all hanging out a lot and if 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:35.920 you hadn't seen Paddington Too, and I know you need to, 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:39.079 and they had John Batchelor and Paul Captu has had 0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:44.120 no idea that Paddington Too was this actual is genuinely great, 0:11:44.320 --> 0:11:46.520 as is Padington Won, but Paddington too. He's like the 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:54.440 godfather too of Paddington movies. And he's a genuinely great film. 0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:57.000 And I saw you Grant talking about it on Instagram 0:11:57.000 --> 0:11:59.160 recently and I was look. He said, like it's it's 0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:02.240 considered a letter box is maybe like the most popular, yeah, 0:12:02.360 --> 0:12:05.000 alm or something like that. Yeah, so it is an 0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:05.840 extraordinary film. 0:12:05.840 --> 0:12:07.880 I had one hundred percent on Rotten Tomatoes at least 0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:09.920 when I first watched it for like a while. 0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:10.760 Yeah, it was. 0:12:10.960 --> 0:12:15.320 It's so good. It's so beautiful. I love whimsy. I 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:17.720 when I was picking which movie to say, it was 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:21.040 between that and Marcel The Shell with Shoes On, because 0:12:21.080 --> 0:12:24.800 I just love that kind of whimsy. I really adore it. 0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:28.400 There's something about the like what we perceive as British nests, 0:12:28.440 --> 0:12:31.120 which I think is actually not real, but the idea 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:34.880 of Britishness that's very like adds to that. And then 0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:37.120 this beautiful story about this bear who is just very 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:39.760 kind and the design is stunning. 0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:44.559 Yeah, it's like it's one of the biggest surprises at 0:12:44.559 --> 0:12:48.320 a cinema that I I mean maybe because I've seen Pennington. 0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:51.280 It wasn't as a supprise the surprise I go the 0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:54.319 first Pennington was like, oh wow, this is this is 0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:57.000 much big. I wasn't going to see it, and then 0:12:57.000 --> 0:12:59.280 I heard all these things you say, and I saw 0:12:59.280 --> 0:13:00.959 it because of the age now where my kids a 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:02.400 old enough, they're probably not going to come to those 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:04.559 films with you. There was too good for school for that, 0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:10.000 those kind of films just right now. So you know, 0:13:10.000 --> 0:13:11.560 if I see picks up film and probably watching it 0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:14.400 by myself taking the kids to see picks out films 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:15.920 the now back in the cinema by. 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:17.760 Myself, they've aged out and they have an age back 0:13:17.760 --> 0:13:18.680 in exactly. 0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:22.160 And they will age back in. But yeah, so that 0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:24.160 was a surprise. And then to see Patting Them two 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:25.720 and go, oh, it's even better. 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:29.280 It was beautiful. By the time I saw Paddington One, 0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:31.760 Paddington two was already out, and Broden Kelly said to me, 0:13:31.800 --> 0:13:33.480 Paddington two is your favorite movie. And I said I 0:13:33.480 --> 0:13:35.320 haven't seen it, and he said, I know, but it's 0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:38.000 your favorite movie. You're going to fucking love it. And 0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:39.400 so I was like, do you have to watch Paddington One. 0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:41.319 He was like, not really, but like it's also really good. 0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:43.360 It's your second favorite movie. And I was like, okay. 0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:45.080 So I went home and I watched the Paddington's and 0:13:45.120 --> 0:13:47.640 I was just daw on the floor. But yeah, I 0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:49.560 saw them at home. I loved them. 0:13:49.640 --> 0:13:51.880 But it's so good if you haven't seen any of 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:53.600 the Paddington is the third one coming out in the 0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:58.640 New year. Actually, Waiting for Guffman what a film. I mean, 0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:01.760 it feels like a meetings you know very much, you know, 0:14:01.880 --> 0:14:05.240 a comedians kind of film. Yeah, obviously stacked with comedians 0:14:05.360 --> 0:14:08.720 and comic performers, but just just so good. 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:11.640 Yeah, so good. I love all the Christopher Guest films. 0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:14.040 I really love A Mighty Wind, which is the folk 0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:17.959 music mockumentary, but I think Waiting for Guffman takes the cake. 0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:21.320 For me because it's about music theater, amateur music theater society, 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:24.080 and that is just where my heart lives. That's the 0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:25.440 funniest place in the world for me. 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:29.120 I do try to sometimes make a case because Guffman, 0:14:29.760 --> 0:14:31.640 clearly amongst comedians, seems to be the one that we 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:34.600 all love because it wasn't necessarily the first obviously spinal 0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:38.000 tap Guffman, but there's a bit of a gap between 0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:40.320 that and Guffin coming out, and it just seems to 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:42.680 be the one that everyone loves. Best in shows obviously. 0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:44.880 Great, best in shows great. I mean, you can't argument 0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:47.760 there's dogs in it. Yeah, it's so good. 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:51.640 And for your consideration, is underrated. I think as well, 0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:54.440 that's about actors, and I was just coming up and 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:57.240 trying the lobby and all of that, and I sometimes 0:14:57.280 --> 0:14:59.800 try to make the case for a Mighty Wind or 0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:02.880 in Shah or even for your consideration. But the fact is, 0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:05.720 I think Pam for pound for Guffin is the funniest. 0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:09.000 It's very quotable, like in all the songs. It's just 0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:14.920 a really fabulous pairing of worlds. But I mean saying 0:15:14.920 --> 0:15:17.200 that A Mighty Wind has the most incredible music in 0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:20.880 it like it's really good, genuinely good and really funny. 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:23.280 So it's kind of I think A Mighty Wind is 0:15:23.360 --> 0:15:26.080 very moving as well. Yeah, like the kiss at the 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:28.520 end of the Rainbow is very like yeah, oh, like 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:30.640 I think I've cried a few times in that. Also, 0:15:30.640 --> 0:15:33.080 my favorite comedic moment ever is in In a Mighty Wind 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:37.200 when they're all someone's died and they're having a minute 0:15:37.400 --> 0:15:41.560 silence for him who's died at the wake, and then 0:15:41.560 --> 0:15:44.160 they're like, actually, can we make it a hum? Can 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:46.600 everyone do a hum? Because obviously it's like folk music, 0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:48.600 and so they're all humming, and then you hear this 0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:52.080 like ho and it pans around and you get to 0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:55.720 Jennifer Coolidge and she's humming, but her mouth is open 0:15:57.400 --> 0:16:00.480 and it's the most absurd honk. And it's really good shot. 0:16:00.560 --> 0:16:03.760 And that's a really funny reveal. It's just it's my 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:06.200 that is the main ingredient in Who I Am. I 0:16:06.200 --> 0:16:07.520 think that one scene. 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:11.920 Yeah. The term that I always use a lot is 0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:17.080 Fred Willard when he strikes the chair. You want me 0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:21.360 to strike this? I know? Other terms I'm using a 0:16:21.440 --> 0:16:24.680 term in theater or even TV or film. I'm like, yeah, 0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:27.960 I know the terms another term, but what a collection 0:16:28.120 --> 0:16:30.600 of like Eugene Levy and Katherine o Harr, you know, 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:33.440 always seem to be coupled together in these films, and yeah, 0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:38.040 just I mean a beautiful mix of talent and all 0:16:38.360 --> 0:16:41.720 just at the top of their game and executing and yeah, 0:16:41.840 --> 0:16:44.400 so good. I could watch I can watch all of 0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:46.240 them if there's In fact, I'm satting to Colin Layne 0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:50.360 recently backstage at the Starcatcher and he had just we 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:54.680 both actually tuned in for like flicking three channels in 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:57.320 Besting Show, we're on at the same time without knowing 0:16:57.320 --> 0:17:00.280 it and end up watching like half a best in 0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:03.240 show because it's if it's on, it's hard, it's hard. 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:06.320 To turn away. So good and you notice new things 0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:09.159 all the time, Yes, because all the actors are so 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:12.000 good and they're all doing something, so you can watch 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:13.680 every scene like seven times. 0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:16.280 Yeah, yeah, so you have it, you have a favorite 0:17:16.320 --> 0:17:17.760 like if you like do you have it like a 0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:20.840 favorite actor in that In the Christopher guest World. 0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:24.520 It's really hard. I love Parker Posey, she is great, 0:17:25.040 --> 0:17:27.600 but I think my Catherine, her heart is very hard 0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:30.360 to beat, very very hard to be so. 0:17:30.640 --> 0:17:36.879 Boy, that combination. Yeah, in show whenever, whenever she plays cookie, 0:17:36.920 --> 0:17:40.080 I think it's cookie and and they she keeps on 0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:45.520 bumping into exploit boyfriends, partners, and it's she plays it 0:17:45.840 --> 0:17:50.359 so well, Like the idea is funny, Yeah, but it's not. 0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:52.880 What's funnier is the perform. 0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:54.879 And it's just the sandbox for her. With same with 0:17:54.960 --> 0:17:58.680 Jennifer Coolidge. It's like, hey, we built you this Coolidge playground. 0:17:59.080 --> 0:18:01.680 Now you go. And if anyone else did it, it would 0:18:01.680 --> 0:18:05.920 be like okay, but she does it. It's like brilliant. Yeah, 0:18:06.040 --> 0:18:07.040 just a different world. 0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:10.679 It's so good. One that was I expecting Fast and 0:18:10.680 --> 0:18:14.399 Furious what I saw. I saw a clip of you 0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:17.080 that you posted on Instagram where you had a bit 0:18:17.119 --> 0:18:20.000 of tech issues and tech issues in the show in London. Yeah, 0:18:20.040 --> 0:18:21.320 I believe, and you. 0:18:21.200 --> 0:18:23.679 Five hundred seats. My agent was there, my mum had 0:18:23.680 --> 0:18:29.119 flown to London. My biggest show ever in London, and 0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:33.040 uh yeah, the tech the tech went to share so you. 0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:35.040 You filled the timing as a text, you know, did 0:18:35.080 --> 0:18:37.879 what text doing and we went to work by this 0:18:38.359 --> 0:18:40.320 running through the Fast. 0:18:40.040 --> 0:18:42.159 And Furious, I was like, I'm going to show you 0:18:42.160 --> 0:18:44.359 the plot of the Fast and the Furious until the 0:18:44.400 --> 0:18:46.679 tech comes back on. It's a long plot. 0:18:46.920 --> 0:18:48.880 I imagine it would have been one of those things 0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:51.560 that you were so enjoyable to watch, you counting Fast 0:18:51.560 --> 0:18:53.480 and Furious. There might have been one or two people 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:55.679 slightly going how do you transition? You know, you know, 0:18:55.720 --> 0:18:57.880 when you go into a bit of improv or crowd work, 0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:01.600 sometimes it can be hard transition back into the material. 0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:05.080 Yeah, I mean it was kind of hard, and I 0:19:05.119 --> 0:19:07.600 wanted to keep gold. I think it was, like, it's 0:19:07.600 --> 0:19:09.480 a shame because it's one of the funniest I've ever 0:19:09.480 --> 0:19:11.760 been on stage. When I watched something, there's footage of it, 0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:14.080 so many people filmed it, and when I look at it, 0:19:14.119 --> 0:19:16.359 I'm like, this was the best I've ever been And 0:19:16.400 --> 0:19:18.480 I can never use this again. But this is not 0:19:18.560 --> 0:19:21.560 helpful to me unless I make one year My comedy 0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:23.960 show is just Michelle Brazier tells you the entire plot 0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:27.320 of The Fast and Furious franchise. You will sell tickets 0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:29.840 cell tickets. But yeah, I love I love The Fast 0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:32.960 and the Furious franchise so much. I love cars, broom, broom, 0:19:33.000 --> 0:19:33.920 I love family. 0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:35.359 It's all about family. 0:19:35.440 --> 0:19:38.200 I love it. It's so I started watching it, ironically 0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:40.480 the whole series, and then by the time I got 0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:42.240 to seven, I was like, sorry, there's something in my 0:19:42.280 --> 0:19:46.280 eye feel kind of crazy. So Furious seven is, like, 0:19:46.320 --> 0:19:50.520 I think, the best one because it's very moving and 0:19:50.560 --> 0:19:53.600 it's like and it's it's a real joy. It's kind 0:19:53.640 --> 0:19:56.119 of like the height of the new school of Fast 0:19:56.160 --> 0:20:00.239 and Furious before it gets too silly and you you know, 0:20:00.359 --> 0:20:03.320 Paul Walker and everything. You know, it's very sad. But 0:20:03.400 --> 0:20:07.160 I also, I can't tell you how much I adored 0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:11.800 ten Fast, ten Your seat Belts. And I thought that one, 0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:15.000
