51
00:04:31,199 --> 00:04:34,240
tonight, Lois. Thanks for joining
us. Hi everybody, it's nice to

52
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:40,639
be here. So what we have
is we are going to talk about four

53
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:45,600
movies tonight. We have four questions
for each movie, and you know there

54
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,000
are more hysterical questions, but also
questions that have to do with the movie.

55
00:04:49,079 --> 00:04:56,399
Excuse me, what, Eric,
Okay, they they're historical questions,

56
00:04:56,399 --> 00:04:59,600
but they also have to do with
the movie. I was able to watch

57
00:04:59,639 --> 00:05:02,199
Awful. I was amazed that I
was able to do it. But talk

58
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,480
about different movies and different eras,
I think we picked some pretty good ones.

59
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,399
So why don't we start, Okay, why don't we give ourselves a

60
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:15,959
round of applause for us, which
we will sweeten up in post believe it.

61
00:05:15,759 --> 00:05:20,879
Okay, take off the shades before
we start the game, just going

62
00:05:20,959 --> 00:05:24,959
to throw it to General Tom and
just tell us about Holmestrot Troops. So

63
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:30,519
a lot of our regular listeners know
about it, but please just refresh our

64
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,480
memories. Let's say sure, I
appreciate it. Mac as always great to

65
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:40,519
be with you guys in Military X
files. Homespur Troops is a national charity

66
00:05:40,879 --> 00:05:45,399
located just south of Boston in Taunton, Massachusetts. We've been around since two

67
00:05:45,399 --> 00:05:48,439
thousand and four, and our mission
is to build especially adapted custom homes across

68
00:05:48,439 --> 00:05:53,160
the country and then we donate them
to the most severely injured post on eleven

69
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,839
veterans enable them to rebuild their lives. Since two thousand and four, we've

70
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,959
now built and donated three hundred and
seven specially adapted custom homes in forty five

71
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:08,639
states. We got another seventy seven
projects currently underway, another one hundred veterans

72
00:06:08,639 --> 00:06:12,560
in the applications process. On top
of all that, there's still about another

73
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,439
thousand more of these severely injured veterans
that would qualify for our programs. We

74
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,120
averaged generally about twenty five homes on
the ground a year, so you can

75
00:06:20,199 --> 00:06:25,480
do that quick math. And we
got a lot of work to do and

76
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,639
one of the ways we're doing it. We're publicly funded one hundred percent.

77
00:06:29,879 --> 00:06:34,199
Sixty five percent comes from individual donations, grants, foundations, independent fundraisers.

78
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:40,199
Other thirty five percent comes from corporate
partners in a way of both materials for

79
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:46,639
the homes and also cash. And
today is a national day giving called Giving

80
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:51,680
Tuesday around the world. And we
had a goal coming into the day of

81
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:58,240
raising a million dollars and our board
and a couple of our corporate partners also

82
00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:00,600
pitched in and came up with a
million dollar match. We're trying to make

83
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,319
it all the way for a two
million dollars a day, all it can

84
00:07:04,399 --> 00:07:10,279
double their impact with that board match. Wow, that's excellent. So I

85
00:07:10,319 --> 00:07:14,680
hope that everyone listening tonight, you
know, just goes to Google Homes for

86
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:19,839
our troops and just see how you
can donate. They're very worth while cause

87
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:25,279
and you know they are official charity. Great people. We'd love to be

88
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,879
partnered with you guys, and so
well, thanks very much, And we

89
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,120
should start the game right Yeah,
ready to go? Okay, So here

90
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:36,839
we go. We're going to the
four movies we're dealing with tonight from thirty

91
00:07:36,879 --> 00:07:44,600
seconds Over Tokyo, the Longest Day
Patent and saving Private Ryan. Okay,

92
00:07:44,839 --> 00:07:51,639
So we'll start off with thirty Seconds
over Tokyo. I've never done this,

93
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:58,439
read it off a laptop before anyway. Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo was made nineteen

94
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:03,759
forty four was a film produced by
MGM. The screenplay was written by blacklisted

95
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,480
Dalton Trumbull, which I didn't know. It was based on a nineteen forty

96
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:13,160
three book of the same name.
It depicts the first retaliatory air strike against

97
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:18,600
a PN on April eighteenth, nineteen
forty two, four months after the December

98
00:08:18,639 --> 00:08:22,360
seventh, nineteen forty one Japanese attack
on Pearl Harbor the plan. The raid

99
00:08:22,519 --> 00:08:26,439
was planned and led by, and
named after the United States Army Air Forces

100
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:31,320
Lieutenant Colonel James new Littell. Notable
people are in the movie, including Spencer

101
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:35,200
Tracy, who is the lead actor, but he's actually kind of like a

102
00:08:37,039 --> 00:08:41,720
cameo appearances. I think he's act
in about eight scenes, but also Blake

103
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,720
Blake Edwards who went on to marry
Julie Andrews. He was a famous director

104
00:08:46,799 --> 00:08:50,519
and actor himself. Robert Mitchum.
First time he was ever on screen,

105
00:08:52,159 --> 00:08:54,879
Van Johnson is kind of like the
lead in it, and Alan Napia,

106
00:08:56,519 --> 00:08:58,639
Alan Napia, who is the butler
in the Batman series, also in the

107
00:08:58,639 --> 00:09:03,240
movie. It's a very nineteen forty
four ish patriotic at Sappi in places,

108
00:09:03,279 --> 00:09:07,360
but it's very realistic in others,
so realistic that MGM had one hundred and

109
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:13,399
eighty feet of carrier deck built inside
its Studio fifteen in Hollywood. The Army

110
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:18,080
Air Force also provided three B twenty
fives and pilots for the filming. So

111
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:24,120
basically what happened was, four months
after Pearl Harbor, they came up the

112
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:31,000
US military came up with this idea
to put Army B twenty five bombers kind

113
00:09:31,039 --> 00:09:35,039
of medium bombers on a Navy aircraft, carry the Hornet, get it as

114
00:09:35,039 --> 00:09:39,679
close as they could to Japan,
and then take off and bomb Tokyo and

115
00:09:39,759 --> 00:09:43,320
other cities around it. Now they
knew what the damage wasn't going to be

116
00:09:43,399 --> 00:09:48,279
great, but they knew from a
psychological point of view, it was US

117
00:09:48,279 --> 00:09:52,919
bringing the war back to Japan and
it had a domino effect throughout the rest

118
00:09:52,919 --> 00:09:58,440
of the war. But let's just
get to the questions about the movie first

119
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:03,000
of all, So question number one, how many B twenty fives took off

120
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,320
from the horn at the day of
the mission? All right, these are

121
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,559
all multiple choice by the way,
how many bombers actually took off from the

122
00:10:11,639 --> 00:10:16,480
USS hornet the day of the mission? The options that eight A is sixteen,

123
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:22,480
B is fourteen, C is eight, and D is a dozen twelve.

124
00:10:24,279 --> 00:10:30,639
Right, okay, let's go first. I'll go first. Go ahead,

125
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:37,879
right, General, you go first. Well, since we're sav I

126
00:10:37,919 --> 00:10:41,679
was gonna say sixteen. What about
you? I was gonna say fourteen,

127
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:46,000
sixteen and fourteen. Okay, we'll
call them Team one. All right,

128
00:10:46,279 --> 00:10:52,320
that's okay. So Team two,
well, let's say is fill and gym

129
00:10:52,360 --> 00:11:01,840
Team two sixteen, fourteen, eight
or a dozen? Yep? Well,

130
00:11:01,879 --> 00:11:05,600
I think it's nine, but I'll
say so if it's eight. If eight

131
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,440
is the only option, I'm going
to say eight, Phil, it's a

132
00:11:09,759 --> 00:11:15,120
sixteen, Okay, all right?
Got that? Phil said sixteen. Okay.

133
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,039
I'm gonna wait until you say and
then I'll give everybody points. Okay,

134
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:26,000
and okay. So the third team
is Bill in acts Ax, what

135
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:31,840
do you say? I have to
fully confess so I don't have to one

136
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,639
say an act of contrition? It's
sixteen because I got this answer wrong on

137
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:43,120
a CBS similar type show, really
similar to us. Interesting, I'll see

138
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:48,240
Bill, what do you say.
I'll go with sixteen. Okay, sixteen,

139
00:11:50,159 --> 00:11:54,360
Okay, we answer Bill. Everyone, Yeah, the answer is sixteen.

140
00:11:54,639 --> 00:12:01,559
The answer is sixteen. I am
a bashed. The corrected answer was

141
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,879
sixteen. And when you see the
actual footage of what they did that day.

142
00:12:07,159 --> 00:12:09,879
For them to put sixteen B twenty
fives on the on the deck of

143
00:12:09,919 --> 00:12:16,320
this haunt on the aircraft carrier and
give them enough room to take off,

144
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:22,799
just amazing, just amazing, I
think. I mean, that's not the

145
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:28,840
five that would have been over half
the length of the carrier. That's right,

146
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:33,919
let's looking. But the well,
whatever they had to they were.

147
00:12:33,159 --> 00:12:37,639
It was bad weather, which was
actually in their favor because the winds were

148
00:12:37,639 --> 00:12:41,120
blown right over the top of the
deck. But when you see the footage

149
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,000
of it, the first plane,
wow, man, it looks like he's

150
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,240
going to hit. But then he
takes off and then everyone else takes off,

151
00:12:46,279 --> 00:12:50,039
so that's too little. By the
way, who flew the first plane?

152
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,360
He was the first one to take
off. Yep, that's right,

153
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:58,840
yeah, let him he let him
In person Okay, all right, so

154
00:12:58,039 --> 00:13:03,559
question number two. Uh, so
who got points on that there? Okay,

155
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:09,840
well everybody got something. We have
the General and one got one point,

156
00:13:11,519 --> 00:13:18,440
Jim and Phil also got one point, and Tom and Bill got two

157
00:13:18,519 --> 00:13:22,759
points. We can call it x
X. Sorry, okay, here goes

158
00:13:22,799 --> 00:13:31,279
only because Bill went second. Wow. Okay, rangers get paid to observe

159
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:35,759
and see what's going on before the
maneuver Lewis lane. If you don't want

160
00:13:35,799 --> 00:13:41,480
to say X, you can say
Xavier. Now let's just leave it at

161
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:46,960
next Okay, here we go.
Question number two. Uh, We've always

162
00:13:46,039 --> 00:13:50,480
heard that the Doolottle raid was a
victory for the nation's morale but actually did

163
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,559
very little damage. But in reality, how many buildings were destroyed during the

164
00:13:54,559 --> 00:14:03,799
bombing raid? Okay, we always
heard that the Doolittle raid was a victory

165
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,679
for the nation's morale but actually did
very little damage. In reality, how

166
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:11,720
many buildings were destroyed? A fourteen, including two on the grounds of the

167
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:18,840
Emperor's palace. B twenty two structures, including an army barracks. C zero

168
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:26,799
No building was completely destroyed in D
and D one hundred and twelve buildings.

169
00:14:28,039 --> 00:14:31,279
Let me go over those again.
A fourteen buildings, including two on the

170
00:14:31,279 --> 00:14:37,360
grounds of the Emperor's palace, B
twenty two structures, including an army barracks

171
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:46,879
C zero. No buildings were completely
destroyed in D one hundred and twelve buildings.

172
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:50,360
Okay, why don't we go to
fill and gym first? Well,

173
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:58,440
I have never heard this question before, but it's very it's very provocative.

174
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:07,399
That's that Will course was the idea
behind the mission was to cause destruction and

175
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:15,720
make its thing for the Japanese.
So I'll say I'll say D D and

176
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:22,080
twelve, Okay, Jim, let
is say twenty two. Jim says twenty

177
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:26,519
two. B let's go to the
general and one general. What do you

178
00:15:26,559 --> 00:15:31,240
say? I'm going to go with
twenty two as well. Yeah, it's

179
00:15:31,279 --> 00:15:35,919
a load number twenty two one.
Same thing. I counted them while they

180
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:41,600
were happening on the film twenty two
other than one really big one, Okay,

181
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:46,399
I counted twenty two. Yeah,
it wasn't a lot, Bill an

182
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:52,320
X, Bill, I would say
twenty two. I don't think they ever

183
00:15:52,679 --> 00:15:58,399
deliberately targeted the Emperor's place right deliberately
stand away from that one an X.

184
00:16:00,159 --> 00:16:04,240
I'm sorry, X. I don't
know how many buildings, but I know

185
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,240
they hit. We were all led
to believe they just bombed Tokyo, but

186
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:15,519
it was other cities and on the
targets because they wanted to make all of

187
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:19,440
Japan fail. Right, what's happening? So I'll go with twenty two twenty

188
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:26,159
two? Okay, The really answer
is d one hundred and twelve buildings.

189
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,679
It didn't work. More destruction than
I don't know we were led to believe,

190
00:16:30,799 --> 00:16:34,039
or maybe they didn't think one hundred
and twelve buildings would be, you

191
00:16:34,039 --> 00:16:37,720
know, a big number for them, But that's what happened, and it

192
00:16:37,759 --> 00:16:45,080
also killed fifty five people on the
ground. But the biggest victory to come

193
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:49,679
out of this is that it caused
the Japanese to bring home almost a million

194
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,840
troops as their home god, and
they really didn't have those people before.

195
00:16:53,919 --> 00:16:56,279
And it took a lot of troops
out of the field, you know,

196
00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:00,559
so and fighter squadrons right yeah,
yep, yep, all of a sudden

197
00:17:00,559 --> 00:17:04,559
they had to protect Japan and they
hadn't really come in on that, okay.

198
00:17:04,759 --> 00:17:07,799
Lois the reason. The reason,
by the way, that I guessed

199
00:17:08,759 --> 00:17:15,039
out of thin air one hundred and
twelve is because eleven of the planes I

200
00:17:15,079 --> 00:17:22,519
think bomb Tokyo and the other five
were each given one city to drop their

201
00:17:22,559 --> 00:17:26,160
bombs, and they each had four
bombs, and the buildings in Japan were

202
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,079
pretty flimsy, right there, four
bombs and maybe each one took out two

203
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:38,839
buildings, right there was sixty Yeah, about fourteen tons of bombs in total,

204
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,880
sixteen tons. Well each plane had
a ton a ton unless yeah,

205
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:47,960
okay, okay, here we go. So what are you making us compete

206
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:53,720
with the math major like Phil lois? What's the score? So only one

207
00:17:53,799 --> 00:17:59,440
team scored a point for that,
and it was Phil's team, So we

208
00:17:59,559 --> 00:18:03,759
have a tie going on. We
have X and Bill with two points,

209
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:08,720
Jim and Phil with two points,
the General and one have one right now

210
00:18:08,839 --> 00:18:14,440
one? Okay, all right?
Still time question three? Really? Okay?

211
00:18:15,079 --> 00:18:18,440
All right? Of the sixteenth bombers
that took off, fourteen crashed in

212
00:18:18,559 --> 00:18:22,319
China and one fourteen crashed in China, one landed safely. What happened to

213
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:29,359
the sixteenth bomber? A It crashed
on takeoff, b, it was shut

214
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:33,440
down by Japanese fighters. C,
it landed in Russia. D it was

215
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:38,079
never found. Okay. Of the
sixteen bombs that took off. Fourteen crashed

216
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,519
in China. One landed safely in
China. What happened to the sixteenth?

217
00:18:41,519 --> 00:18:49,079
Plane crashed on crashed on takeoff,
shot down by Japanese fighters. It landed

218
00:18:49,079 --> 00:18:53,319
in Russia? It was never found? Go ahead? One landed in Russia?

219
00:18:53,839 --> 00:19:04,599
Okay, general never found? All
right? Okay, Uh, let's

220
00:19:04,599 --> 00:19:11,039
say, Jim, what do you
say? Those are two intriguing possibilities.

221
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:18,559
I'm gonna say it was never found. Okay, Phil The landed and blad

222
00:19:18,559 --> 00:19:23,519
of Ostar? Right, is that
Russia? Yes, that's Russia. Siberia.

223
00:19:23,599 --> 00:19:30,480
Come on, get real? Landed
in Siberia or Russia? Bill?

224
00:19:32,559 --> 00:19:36,599
Russia? Did you ask Jim?
I didn't write Jim's down, Yeah,

225
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:41,000
Jim, Jim got it wrong.
Yeah, it landed in Russia. It

226
00:19:41,039 --> 00:19:48,400
was It landed in Russia and the
the crew was interned. But I think

227
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:53,599
they eventually got out somehow. I'm
not sure. But the Russians. The

228
00:19:53,680 --> 00:20:00,359
Russians conveniently let them escape from a
train near the Iranian Oh okay, yeah,

229
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,599
yeah right. And the reason why
the Russians just didn't turn them back

230
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:10,079
is because Russia had a neutrality packed
with Japan. So according to the pack

231
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:14,960
they had to in turn America,
and by the way, confiscate the plane.

232
00:20:15,319 --> 00:20:19,200
Right sure, okay, all right, we want to let's just go

233
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,680
to one more question and then we'll
update the score. Okay, so this

234
00:20:22,839 --> 00:20:27,920
is a question number four. After
the raid was over, do Letter was

235
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:32,599
rescued and brought to Washington, d
C. Previous to this, he was

236
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:34,880
convinced the raid had been a failure
and he was going to be court martialed.

237
00:20:36,279 --> 00:20:40,839
What happened instead? Okay, After
the raid was over, Dolota was

238
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,839
rescued and brought to Washington, d
C. Previous to this, he was

239
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,680
convinced the raid had been a filiate. He was going to be court martialed.

240
00:20:47,079 --> 00:20:51,079
What happened instead. A. He
was busted down a colonel and returned

241
00:20:51,079 --> 00:20:55,960
to the South Pacific as a supply
officer. B he was promoted to brigadier

242
00:20:55,960 --> 00:21:00,519
general and giving command of the eighth
f Force in England. C and went

243
00:21:00,559 --> 00:21:06,480
on savings upon drive towards until the
war's end. D He resigned his commission

244
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:11,200
and took a job as a Hollywood
consultant. Okay, A, he was

245
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:15,160
busted down to colonel. B.
He was promoted to brigady a general given

246
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,279
commander of the A thes See,
he retired and went on savings Born to

247
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:22,400
a drums until the war was end
d he resigned his commission took a job

248
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,000
as a Hollywood consultant. Let's go
to X and Bill, Bill, what

249
00:21:26,039 --> 00:21:37,319
do you say? He was promoted
and continued on. Okay X. Yeah,

250
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,480
it was a worldwide success for the
West. And I think he got

251
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:47,160
promoted ye okay, Jim, Yeah, I think he was promoted. Phil

252
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:56,000
promoted, go ahead, wanting Yeah, definitely promoted. And General, Yep,

253
00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:00,720
he's skipped a rank and was promoted
to brigadiy General. He actually,

254
00:22:00,559 --> 00:22:07,319
that's correct. He went up to
ranks and he was also a ward of

255
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,359
the Medal of Honor. But he
was also credited with turning the whole strategic

256
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:15,880
bombing campaign in Europe, turning it
around. You know, there was a

257
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,599
lot of problems there before he got
there, and he just said we're going

258
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,640
to do it this way, and
you know it was the right way.

259
00:22:23,799 --> 00:22:29,119
So he was quite a guy anyway. Okay, So we're at the end

260
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:34,359
of the four first segment, lowis
please, So the scores are very tight.

261
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:41,599
We have Bill an X with six
points so far. Jim and Phil

262
00:22:41,799 --> 00:22:49,839
with five and the general and one
with four. Okay, tight, okay,

263
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,160
okay, let's just go on.
That's funny. I counted. I

264
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,839
counted five points, so I might
have one on the first one of the

265
00:22:59,839 --> 00:23:03,400
first one, no on the second. Did you both get tom and I

266
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:10,200
got on? Okay, that's what
I Okay, the right answers there,

267
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:14,440
and then three and then two right
answers on this one. Only one right

268
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,319
answer on the third one, only
one right answer. That's what I had.

269
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:22,640
So that's why I have So you
both got two of there were only

270
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:26,359
one right answers and then the other
two. We had two right answers.

271
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:33,640
No on question two. Yeah,
on question two, only Phil got it

272
00:23:33,759 --> 00:23:38,559
right, okay, true, Yeah, that's okay, all right, yez

273
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:45,200
Lois, you have a tough crowd. Yeah, a hard time. Okay,

274
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,039
all right, here we go,
Movie number two one more questions.

275
00:23:48,039 --> 00:23:52,599
Okay, this movie, the second
movie is the Longest Day. And I

276
00:23:52,599 --> 00:23:56,799
can tell you we could have done
a whole show about the Longest Day.

277
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,519
I mean, I saw it when
it came out. I've probably seen it

278
00:23:59,599 --> 00:24:03,519
maybe three or fourth time since,
but I sat down and watched it again

279
00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:07,599
last week, and it's just such
an amazing movie. At the scale of

280
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:15,440
the movie is just unbelievable, and
there's just a lot of elements to it

281
00:24:15,799 --> 00:24:19,559
and not this it was it came
out in nineteen sixty two, but there's

282
00:24:19,599 --> 00:24:25,480
definitely a it's not a pro war
movie, if I can say it like

283
00:24:25,519 --> 00:24:30,400
that. There's a lot of kind
of philosophical moments in it and personal moments

284
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,920
in it. I was just really
kind of very impressed by it. I

285
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,920
think, you know, we saw
it as kids, you know it's a

286
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,799
war movie, but as an adult
it's a little deeper than that. Anyway.

287
00:24:41,279 --> 00:24:44,839
So I was released in September nineteen
sixty two. Claus seven point five

288
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,279
million to make, would eventually are
in more than thirty million. Has a

289
00:24:48,279 --> 00:24:52,240
wide array of big stars, including
John Wayne, Richard Burton, Robert Mitchrim,

290
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,440
Robert Ryan, Henry Fonda, and
many more, including Paul Ankle,

291
00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:04,400
who wrote the theme music, and
teenage hot throb Fabian Fabian. The film

292
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:08,599
has an amazing scope and a number
of set piece battle scenes that intricately but

293
00:25:08,759 --> 00:25:14,319
realistically filmed, as well as a
number of personal vignettes, many with a

294
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,440
distinct anti war tone. When the
movie came out, it was praised for

295
00:25:18,519 --> 00:25:25,279
its integrity, many noting that it
was not a typical American movie, and

296
00:25:25,319 --> 00:25:30,000
it went on to inspire nineteen ninety
movies Saving Private Ryan. Okay, so

297
00:25:30,599 --> 00:25:34,279
first question, I got a question
for you, though, A tidbit ahead.

298
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:40,000
Why was it shot in black and
white? That's question number one?

299
00:25:41,279 --> 00:25:48,119
So it caught? So all right, okay, hang on ahead, well

300
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,960
thank you one one. Okay,
here we go. What do I know?

301
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,880
I'm not developed open the game.
I just it's a tidbit. I

302
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,799
always I always knew, even as
a kid. Okay. The Longest Stay

303
00:25:57,839 --> 00:26:03,680
calast seven point five million dolls making
is considered the most expensive black and black

304
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,319
and white movie ever made, also
the most successful black and white movie ever

305
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:11,559
made. But why was it films
in black and white? A To save

306
00:26:11,599 --> 00:26:15,559
money so they could spend it on
paying the many celebrities in the film.

307
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:22,720
B to add grit to the true
wartime drama CE. Originally, only the

308
00:26:22,759 --> 00:26:26,279
German scenes were shot in black and
white, while the Ally scenes were shot

309
00:26:26,279 --> 00:26:30,960
in color, but this was later
changed to the movie being filled entirely in

310
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:36,920
black and white d to act to
match actual WAF footage from D Day to

311
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:38,599
be used in the movie. Okay, let's go over again. So it

312
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:44,480
cost seven point five million to make, but it's in black and white?

313
00:26:44,519 --> 00:26:47,480
Why was it made in black and
white? A To save money so they

314
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:51,079
could spend it on paying the many
stars in the film. B to add

315
00:26:51,079 --> 00:26:56,119
grit to the true war time drama
ce. Originally, only the German scenes

316
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,480
were shot in black and white,
while the Ally scenes were shot in color,

317
00:26:59,559 --> 00:27:02,599
but this is had changed to the
movie being filled entirely in black and

318
00:27:02,599 --> 00:27:06,640
white or d to match actual WAF
footage from D Day to be used in

319
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:10,640
the movie. Okay, so why
was it shot in black and white?

320
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:17,319
Let's go to Bill first one one? Because he feels like, all right,

321
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:22,119
we'll go but he feels like,
you know that that's not the answer.

322
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,599
None of those were the answer that
I know will tell us in nineteen

323
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:33,519
sixty two number Daryl xx Darrel.
Maybe it was just a a comment,

324
00:27:33,839 --> 00:27:37,559
go ahead off the cuff comment,
but something I always remember that the blood

325
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,440
was too red. Wow, that's
what he said. That's what he said.

326
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:47,680
Maybe we'll give him a plate lit
wikipedia it or yahhood or dog piled

327
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:52,599
it of the fortune of the fourth
I didn't even dial up copy syrup or

328
00:27:52,599 --> 00:27:57,920
America online to to find that I
just can't remember it and I and I

329
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:03,839
remember seeing it at the Saxon Theater
in Boston. Oh my god, there

330
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,680
was a program with it, and
I wish I still had it. Okay,

331
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,799
So of the four answers, though, what do you done? One

332
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,119
one? It's just a memory,
you know, It's a memory that I

333
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:15,279
always had. And that's what he
said. It wasn't John Wayne saying.

334
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:19,519
It was Darryl EPs not saying.
Of the four answers, what are you

335
00:28:19,759 --> 00:28:25,160
picking? All right? Well,
the first three are stupid. I'm picking

336
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:33,759
the d to uh blend in actual
war footage. General, That's what I

337
00:28:33,799 --> 00:28:38,240
was gonna say. Last one X
Yeah, I thought that too, even

338
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:47,799
when I was young, Like one
one? So what's your answer? What's

339
00:28:47,839 --> 00:28:56,319
your answer? X? Oh D? Sorry? Ye okay, uh Bill,

340
00:28:56,359 --> 00:28:59,839
what do you say? I'm on
board with d? Also actual footage,

341
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:08,960
Phil Well? Which one was the
grit? Yeah, to add grit

342
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:14,960
to the wartime drama? B that
was b big Well. I know that.

343
00:29:15,039 --> 00:29:19,039
One of the criticisms the twentieth century
Fox had when they found out that

344
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:23,960
Zanak wanted to film it in black
and white is they thought it would look

345
00:29:25,039 --> 00:29:30,720
like a newsreel. And his comeback
to that was, don't worry about that.

346
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,240
I'll have a star in every scene. I mean, he had like

347
00:29:33,319 --> 00:29:37,680
thirty stars to pick from, right, So I think the worry was that

348
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:45,079
it might look too much like newsreel. So I'm going to go with B

349
00:29:45,359 --> 00:29:53,640
the grit okay and Jim uh ge
whiz. I'm going with D Okay,

350
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,599
dog, it's good. We ought
to get one point out of this jump

351
00:29:56,599 --> 00:30:02,319
and let's see this is this is
a surprising because I didn't think anyone would

352
00:30:02,359 --> 00:30:04,559
get this, But the answer is
d. They have a lot of wartime

353
00:30:04,599 --> 00:30:07,799
footage in that movie, way more
than you would think, and it blends

354
00:30:07,839 --> 00:30:12,759
in almost perfectly with what they shot. I thought he was trying to avoid

355
00:30:12,799 --> 00:30:15,039
it, right, yeah, yeah, And I had heard for years that

356
00:30:15,079 --> 00:30:18,319
it was just it was just too
big of a movie and there was too

357
00:30:18,319 --> 00:30:19,839
many stars in it, and they
had to pay them and stuff. But

358
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,920
it wasn't they wanted. They wanted
it to have that kind of I think

359
00:30:23,039 --> 00:30:26,119
news written news footage. You don't
look to it, you know. The

360
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,880
funny thing about paying the stars was
there's many many people in it, and

361
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:40,519
Richard Burton and Roddy McDowell of all
people were in each of filming Cleopatra,

362
00:30:40,599 --> 00:30:44,920
and they were like just so bored
because little bit Taylor took a thousand takes,

363
00:30:45,039 --> 00:30:48,000
you know, for everything. They
begs, Zen, it could we

364
00:30:48,079 --> 00:30:49,039
be in this movie. We're just
bored. We got to get out of

365
00:30:49,079 --> 00:30:52,839
here. They paid their own way, they didn't get paid and they're in

366
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:56,920
the movie, you know. So
yeah anyway, yeah, okay, So

367
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,119
you want to just give the scores
there, run those from it. That's

368
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,599
what Sean Connery's appearance was the Killer. He's funny in it. Yeah,

369
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:08,519
he's kind of funny. Comic gown. Was he filmed that just before he

370
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:14,559
filmed Doctor No? Really? Yeah, this was not his you know,

371
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:18,200
this was his premiere, I think
ye to be. It was before Doctor

372
00:31:18,279 --> 00:31:22,440
Nor didn't like him. He thought
he was a hack. He was wrong.

373
00:31:25,039 --> 00:31:26,119
Okay, here we go. You
want to just friend down the schools.

374
00:31:27,079 --> 00:31:32,839
Sure, so we have Bill and
Tom in the lead with eight,

375
00:31:33,079 --> 00:31:38,920
well, Jim and Phil with six, and the General and one with seven.

376
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:45,119
Okay, still tight, Okay,
everybody knows their stuff. Okay,

377
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:51,119
so there is one benefit too too
with them adding in the real wall footage.

378
00:31:52,279 --> 00:31:53,440
It does make it look grittier,
you know what I mean. It

379
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,640
was kind of like a win win
situation. But that was the reason for

380
00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,839
it. It would look almost odd
in color, I think. Okay,

381
00:32:00,839 --> 00:32:04,680
here we go. Question three.
There's a famous scene to us the end

382
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:08,759
the movie which shows free French troops
attacking a German occupied casino in a place

383
00:32:08,839 --> 00:32:15,519
called I think it's called Austrienden Austrien
something. Well, it's called wish is

384
00:32:15,559 --> 00:32:19,880
shun? Okay, even better?
Right? It's a long shot film from

385
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,359
a helicopter, and it's perfectly choreographed. I think you all remember the scene,

386
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:28,319
right, probably? Okay, So
keeping in mind, the average length

387
00:32:28,319 --> 00:32:30,880
of a shot and a typical modern
movie is two point five seconds. How

388
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:37,400
long is this particular shot in the
Longest Day? Okay? Well two five

389
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:42,400
seconds? No? The yeah,
the the The average shot in a modern

390
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,839
movie is two point five seconds.
You know, some of them are twenty

391
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:46,519
seconds, some of them are half
second. But just to give you an

392
00:32:46,519 --> 00:32:52,039
example, how shot you know nowadays? Nowadays and even back then? You

393
00:32:52,079 --> 00:32:58,200
know, okay, sot Stanley Kubrick. Keep keeping in mind the average length

394
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,759
of a shot in a typical modern
movie is two point five seconds. How

395
00:33:00,799 --> 00:33:06,279
long was this particular shot in the
longest stay A one minute and thirty one

396
00:33:06,319 --> 00:33:14,039
seconds, B two minutes and fourteen
seconds, C forty four seconds, D

397
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:17,519
four minutes and eleven seconds. Okay, A is one minute thirty one,

398
00:33:19,359 --> 00:33:23,480
B is two fourteen, C is
forty four seconds, D is four minutes

399
00:33:23,519 --> 00:33:28,000
and eleven seconds. And just to
clarify, this is the shot from the

400
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,680
helicopter. Yep, yes, yep, one of the shots. Yes,

401
00:33:30,799 --> 00:33:36,640
it's just the shot from on high
within the context of the entire scene exactly.

402
00:33:36,759 --> 00:33:38,720
Yep. Okay, good one more
time, could you read them?

403
00:33:38,759 --> 00:33:44,480
Okay, one minute and thirty one
seconds, two minutes and fourteen seconds,

404
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:57,519
forty four seconds, and D is
four minutes and eleven seconds. Okay,

405
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:02,000
let's go to Jim. This is
this is tricky. What is it?

406
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:13,000
B B two minutes and fourteen Phil? What was the first answer? One

407
00:34:13,039 --> 00:34:17,719
minute and what one thirty one?
Well, like Jim, I think it's

408
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:25,199
b Okay, this is bing okay
one and it was a long shot.

409
00:34:25,639 --> 00:34:31,800
It was riveting. But was it
four minutes? No, I don't think

410
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:37,800
so. I'm leaning towards four minutes, but I think it is B B

411
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:44,440
one long shot. General, Well, I don't even remember the shot,

412
00:34:44,599 --> 00:34:52,000
so I'll go with long. If
he's thinking be I'll go with it because

413
00:34:52,039 --> 00:34:54,039
I'm thinking it was a continuous shot, right. It can't be like a

414
00:34:54,119 --> 00:35:04,840
shot was according to continued right right, right? Bill? What is hey?

415
00:35:05,519 --> 00:35:08,239
One thirty one X? What do
you say? I gotta tell you,

416
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:13,079
I haven't seen the movie ten or
twelve years, but I do remember

417
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:19,199
one scene when the German fighters are
flying over the beach. That's the other

418
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:23,559
longest scene. Yes, yep.
And the pilot said, das va the

419
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:30,199
costa ougan bleak the Deutscher look.
So I'm going to go with b speaking

420
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:34,920
cleon again. That was a good
scene. Next, Okay, so he

421
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:43,079
said, talking about okay, we
all got I got everybody locked in.

422
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:50,400
The answer is a one minute and
thirty one seconds right now. And when

423
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,800
you when you when you when you
watch it, when you watch it,

424
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:58,000
you say, when you think about
it, it just seems much longer.

425
00:35:58,119 --> 00:36:00,559
Okay, but I got the movie
and I timed it. But when you

426
00:36:00,639 --> 00:36:05,079
watch it it basically what it is
is these Germans are in this casino.

427
00:36:05,159 --> 00:36:08,159
They're in a high point over a
canal, and there's a little town and

428
00:36:08,519 --> 00:36:15,679
just you know, someone yells action
and and hundreds of these soldiers come running

429
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:20,599
out, you know, running along
the streets, blowing up buildings, shooting.

430
00:36:20,679 --> 00:36:22,480
Some of them are dying, you
know, bridges are being blown up.

431
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:25,119
And then the camera moves over,
and I got to say, a

432
00:36:25,159 --> 00:36:29,519
general, because you're a helicopter pilot, I'm amazed in nineteen sixty two that

433
00:36:29,599 --> 00:36:32,039
they could have this thing so stable, you know what I mean, It's

434
00:36:32,079 --> 00:36:35,960
just so stable. It's still a
helicopter, so that must have had a

435
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,679
heavy helicopter or something. But it's
very smooth. And then the helicopter kind

436
00:36:39,679 --> 00:36:44,360
of like rises and you see the
Germans aligned on the top of this casino

437
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,119
and like all these big guns and
stuff, and it just goes on and

438
00:36:46,159 --> 00:36:51,000
on and on and on. Amazing. It's an amazing shot. It lasts

439
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:58,000
a long time, but one one
point thirty one And so anyway they so

440
00:36:58,119 --> 00:37:00,840
you timed it yourself. Yeah,
I just got them and just timed it

441
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:07,199
myself. They must have had an
extremely stable helicopter platform staging this. Thank

442
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,199
you. But I want to read
because I had the wrong scene. Okay,

443
00:37:09,599 --> 00:37:15,239
Mac, is that the one where
they're building actually is blowing up at

444
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,079
the end at the end, yes, right, but but the scene itself

445
00:37:17,159 --> 00:37:21,280
of the attack is one thirty one. And then there's another couple of long

446
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,840
scenes and in the middle of the
battle, this troop of nuns comes walking

447
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:30,719
down the the road and they're not
getting hit, you know, and they

448
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,960
treat the wounded, and there's this
you know kind of thing going on with

449
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,920
that. And then finally what they
do is they bring up a tank and

450
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:39,760
it turns out to be a real
French AMX tank and they and they blow

451
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:44,320
up the casino and that's it.
But great scene. And then the second

452
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,639
longest scene is what ex was talking
about, is that they only had two

453
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,400
loof off of planes that day,
if you could believe it, and they

454
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:58,519
straighted one of the beaches and that's
all they had gas ammunition for. Now,

455
00:37:58,559 --> 00:38:04,119
those two planes that were in the
movie were actually m there depicted as

456
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,960
M E went On nine's, which
was the premier German fighter, but in

457
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:12,639
the movie they were actually M E
one O eight where two seed versions of

458
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,519
Measure Schmid's one O nine, and
one of them was down Plum Island,

459
00:38:15,519 --> 00:38:20,960
import where we lived for about fifteen
years in the hangar. It was bought

460
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:25,280
by Cliff Robinson. Was that that
actor's name, Cliff Yeah, yeah,

461
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:30,920
yeah, yeah. We see it
every one on nine, right, yeah,

462
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,400
right, yep, yeah, we
see it out in the out in

463
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,280
the run. We never saw it
flying, but you take it out every

464
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,760
once in a while anyway. So
having to do with that with the scene

465
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:45,119
in the in the town though,
they rehearsed the scene for several days,

466
00:38:45,119 --> 00:38:46,960
but only took them three times to
get it right. You know when they

467
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:52,039
said action and when you see it, that's amazing, amazing choreography, I

468
00:38:52,079 --> 00:38:54,039
guess you could call it. There
was so much going on, Yes,

469
00:38:54,079 --> 00:38:57,559
it was like, it's incredible choreography. You know, how do you know

470
00:38:57,599 --> 00:39:00,199
how does that guy know? How
does this guy know when to drug up

471
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:04,159
and went to shoot and when to
throw the bomb? I mean it must

472
00:39:04,199 --> 00:39:07,360
be a lot of X's and O's
meetings and that, you know, wrapping

473
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:12,320
it out on a chalkboard, if
I remember, if I remember this trivia

474
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:20,000
question correctly, that building was not
there when they shot the movie. It

475
00:39:20,119 --> 00:39:25,320
had been demolished and they use scenes
They used the black and white film of

476
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:30,159
its demolition in the movie. Oh
yes, I can see. Yeah,

477
00:39:30,159 --> 00:39:39,119
that's cool. Cool, Okay,
So here we go to question number three

478
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:45,400
about the longest day. One line
of dialogue is repeated twice in the movie,

479
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,599
once by John Wayne at the beginning
of the film, and then a

480
00:39:49,679 --> 00:39:53,000
German NASA towards the end of the
film. What is the line? One

481
00:39:53,079 --> 00:39:57,920
line of dialogue is repeated twice in
the movie, once by John Wayne at

482
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,199
the beginning of the film, and
then by a German towards the end of

483
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:06,679
the film. What is the line? A it's all because of this goddamn

484
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:12,840
weather. B it's time to wake
up the funeral. C. I'd rather

485
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:17,199
be anywhere else but here. D. I sometimes wonder which side God is

486
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:22,400
on. Okay, we'll go it
again. A. It's all because of

487
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:27,880
this goddamn weather. B it's time
to wake up the funeral. C.

488
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:32,280
I'd rather be anywhere else but here. D. I sometimes wonder which side

489
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:37,679
God is on. Go to Phil. It sounds like it should be D

490
00:40:39,159 --> 00:40:47,239
D for PHILM Jim say A,
A, it's all because of this goddamn

491
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:54,280
weather. Okay, General y'am will
go with the weather. Okay. X

492
00:40:54,800 --> 00:41:00,960
Oh, I'm sorry one. What
was the again? I think I'm leaning

493
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:05,000
on D, but I forget what
is I sometimes won to which side God

494
00:41:05,079 --> 00:41:09,960
is on? Oh yeah, I'm
picking D because let's just I'm gonna have

495
00:41:10,079 --> 00:41:16,599
it, okay, d X.
I think D is well, hey Bill,

496
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,960
Thus of the guys that were there
were probably saying C. But I

497
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,039
think in the movie it was D. Yes, okay, all right,

498
00:41:24,079 --> 00:41:28,920
we got everyone Okay, yeah,
it is D. It is D.

499
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,920
Yeah. At the very beginning of
the movie, John Wayne is is you

500
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:37,599
know there a lot of the movie
is actually a build up to the invasion,

501
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,519
all the stuff that's going on,
you know, like behind enemy lines

502
00:41:40,639 --> 00:41:45,519
and in England and on the ships
and stuff like that, all different generals

503
00:41:45,559 --> 00:41:49,239
involved. Yeah, and and and
it's it's because of the weather, you

504
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,480
know, the weather. And and
John, you know, when he gets

505
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:52,920
this bad weather, he play says, I went, which you know,

506
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:55,519
I wish he could do his voice. I went to which side God is

507
00:41:55,519 --> 00:42:00,440
on? And then they get the
go they're gonna go. And and later

508
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:01,920
on in the movie, when then
when the Germans realized, you know,

509
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:06,719
that they're getting their asses kicked,
the guy says one, which I had

510
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,960
got his one? You know,
Wow, there's the questions, wasn't okay,

511
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:15,360
here we go all right? And
I voted for Ashenhower too when he

512
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:20,360
ran for president. I'm sorry,
go ahead, you voted for Eizenhowe?

513
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,320
Yeah, that old I did?
Did you really? The kid? Yeah,

514
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:27,440
you was snuck in. I was
handing out the voting cards. He

515
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:31,880
had a big office in the Cambridge
near Harvard Square, like I was handing

516
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:35,639
out we'd like ike pins to people. And I was like about, I

517
00:42:35,639 --> 00:42:38,199
don't know, really you get any
of those around? There's the one.

518
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:42,440
You gotta be kidding. You didn't
really do that? I did? I

519
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,639
did? I believe he did.
The Commodore Hotel in Cambridge had a big,

520
00:42:45,679 --> 00:42:49,840
big office there, a big campaign
office. He wasn't there, but

521
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,000
obviously, but how old you?
You're as oldest Mick Jagger? Then right,

522
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:58,119
all right, there we go.
Question number four? Ready, okay,

523
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:01,599
uh, now we we We talked
about the cast of hundreds in this

524
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,920
movie, and then there really is
a huge, huge cast of very well

525
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:09,559
known people. Question four. Who
is the last Allied soldier to die in

526
00:43:09,599 --> 00:43:15,079
the movie? You know what?
Actor? Who's the last Allied soldier to

527
00:43:15,159 --> 00:43:22,119

Burton, B Paul Anchor, c Eddie

528
00:43:22,159 --> 00:43:28,480
Albert d Dirk Bogott. Who's the
last allied soldier, the last actor to

529
00:43:28,599 --> 00:43:31,760
die in the movie, Richard Burton, Paul Anger, Anger, Eddie Albert

530
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:42,840
or Dirk Bogott. Let's go to
X so many. Oh he's in it.

531
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:47,639
Yeah, he's in it. But
the last you come up with,

532
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,000
Now, he's one one. You
should have helped me out text something.

533
00:43:52,119 --> 00:43:58,079
Okay, go ahead, I think
I know this. Richard Burton, Paul

534
00:43:58,199 --> 00:44:02,920
Anka, Eddie Albert, Eric Boga. I'm gonna say, just because he

535
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,199
was the most famous guy at the
time, Richard Burton, who knows Bill,

536
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:14,639
I think it was Eddie Albert.
One one, Eddie Albert, General

537
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:23,119
Albert. Okay, Phil, I'll
say Albert, okay. In Jim see,

538
00:44:24,079 --> 00:44:28,840
well, I'm not gonna go against
popular, you know, I'll say

539
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:32,079
Eddie Albert. Okay, I say
Boguard, but Eddie Albert. Let's say.

540
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:35,840
I'm not sure Dark Boga is even
in the movie. But yeah,

541
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:39,039
the answer is Cee Eddie Albert.
He takes up. He takes a bullet

542
00:44:39,039 --> 00:44:43,039
at the very end, at the
very very end of the movie, they

543
00:44:43,039 --> 00:44:46,400
blow through the wall after all this
and all that, and they're going,

544
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,880
okay, let's go. And at
the end of the movie he takes a

545
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,760
bullet and the movie's over like thirty
seconds later. It's just a weird,

546
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,719
you know, way to end it. But he was he himself was a

547
00:44:55,800 --> 00:45:01,079
decorated now Wa hero during World War
Two for his ashes during the Battle of

548
00:45:01,159 --> 00:45:06,119
Tower and the South Pacific. I
think he was a coast Guard guy and

549
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,559
in one of the landing craft and
submarines were hung up on a reef and

550
00:45:09,599 --> 00:45:15,480
he dissobate orders, went back and
got them. So he saved a lot

551
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,159
of guys on Tower. Yeah he
did. Yeah, and then he wound

552
00:45:17,199 --> 00:45:27,000
up with a more well yeah,
okay, Green Acres. There is no

553
00:45:27,039 --> 00:45:30,159
god, he probably said, which
that is got all right? So you

554
00:45:30,159 --> 00:45:34,239
want to go with this, well, hey, listen, you know you

555
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:38,159

What's up? Germans say, got me

556
00:45:38,159 --> 00:45:44,159

557
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:51,800
Okay. I wish I knew that. If you understand German, you get

558
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:58,400
that drug. What's there? Yeah? For sure? Okay. So at

559
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:02,480
the end of two rounds we still
have a very tight game. We have

Join our mission at HFOTUSA dot org. UFOs are found in Renaissance art,

573
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:15,880
on ancient coins, and etched on
cave walls. They are even reported in

574
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:21,480
the Bible, but more surprising is
when UFOs are seen the most in times

575
00:47:21,559 --> 00:47:25,960
of war. Through centuries, thousands
of UFO sidings have been made by high

576
00:47:27,039 --> 00:47:32,559
ranking officials military pilots and ordinary soldiers. Often, these fantastic appearances occur at

577
00:47:32,599 --> 00:47:37,159
the height of great battles, from
World War One to D Day to Korea,

578
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:44,119
Vietnam and beyond. Military investigators are
baffled. Why do UFO sidings spike

579
00:47:44,199 --> 00:47:50,199
so drastically during wartime? Could it
be mistaken aircraft or someone or some thing

580

00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,000
than I expected. Oh well,
really had high hopes to jump, and

599
00:50:00,119 --> 00:50:05,199
I thought one one went to sub
marin. No, no, no,

600
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:09,800
if you can, if we can
quickly tell the real story of wan service.

601
00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:15,719
Basically, he was attanning himself in
Guantanamo Bay for two years, and

602
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:20,000
then they transferred him to Newport Beach, Rhode Island, which only lets one

603
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,840
percent of the one percent is in. Okay, he was there, and

604
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:29,920
then they transferred him literally across the
highway from where you grew up right to

605
00:50:30,039 --> 00:50:34,480
the Charlestown Navy Navy Yard I spent
my last eight months. That was a

606
00:50:34,519 --> 00:50:37,480
short time when they said we need
some extra people at the at the shipyard

607
00:50:37,519 --> 00:50:43,239
to do an help do an et
overhaul overhaul. Okay, so yeah,

608
00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:46,159
I can do that. I commuted
with everybody else. So you got a

609
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:51,159
sun Tian. You went to Newport
No via Kong ever, reached Newport by

610
00:50:51,199 --> 00:50:53,960
the way, and then you were
basically home for your last year. Right,

611
00:50:55,079 --> 00:50:58,599
yeah, but that's it. Yeah, I was commuting from home.

612
00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:05,239
But then your parents say, we're
just but he's still contributed. I did.

613
00:51:05,559 --> 00:51:07,360
I did, Okay, so those
shots were fired in my direction.

614
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:14,719
That's good. That's a good thing. You know that apartment rented the house

615
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:20,119
with a couple of the dudes in
Virginia Beach. Wow, you were there

616
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:24,199
almost two years in Great Lakes,
Illinois, between boot camping electronics school.

617
00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:29,320
I was there like forever. Okay. I hung out in Chicago all the

618
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:34,320
time. Oh yeah, So that
was my Navy career five years. Let's

619
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,199
move on. General Tom and I
was editing films that I was doing a

620
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:40,960
Newport I was in the studio where
they hand out movies to the troops,

621
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:45,639
and that was a checond for splices
and watching movies and fixing projectors. This

622
00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:51,000
is I would have ended it down
Newport, but anyway you can tell he

623
00:51:51,039 --> 00:51:54,960
was in the Navy. Yes,
sir, General Tom Land, mamaia,

624
00:51:55,079 --> 00:52:00,360
how are you Tom tonight? General
doing great? Mac? Thanks for having

626
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:09,920

know. It's gonna be a close one,

627
00:52:10,039 --> 00:52:15,360
you think. So it's tomorrow,
right, isn't no week from Saturday?

628
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:17,920
Week from Saturday? Okay? What's
the over under in that? About

629
00:52:19,079 --> 00:52:25,199
five? Anyway, it's actually at
Gillette Stadium this year, is it really?

630
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:30,800
Yeah? Oh man, they'll have
a good game there then. All

631
00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:35,199
right, so uh Jim Frankel supervision, Jim, how you doing tonight?

632
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:42,039
I'm better now? Why you have
it's? It was, you know,

633
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:47,480
Thanksgiving was rough. We had a
whole family here and not in our condo

634
00:52:47,599 --> 00:52:52,719
but in our daughter's house and and
the West Coast contingent. There's a one

635
00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:59,199
and a half year old and an
almost three year old, and that's you

636
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:07,480
know, that's that's chaos, really, yes, okay, works thrilling around

637
00:53:07,519 --> 00:53:13,679
after kids, a lot of kids
crying and screaming and giggling, and you

638
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:16,360
know, the giggling is good.
Crying and the screaming get on your nerves

639
00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:21,400
after a while. Okay, we
did that already, you know we we

640
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:24,559
thought we were done with that.
This is round two, but not quite,

641
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:30,079
not quite. Congratulations to you,
Jim that you have that exciting experience

642
00:53:30,079 --> 00:53:36,639
with your extended family. Yeah,
it's a positive, very nice. But

643
00:53:37,039 --> 00:53:39,920
it was a lot of energy.
You know. You know, little kids,

644
00:53:40,079 --> 00:53:46,400
babies are energy vampires. All right, think about it. If you've

645
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:50,719
ever been a parent, you know
what I'm talking about. I do know

646
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:53,920
it. This is turning into a
ted kids. I do know some grandkids.

647
00:53:55,079 --> 00:54:00,880
So Phil albines, Phil, how
are you tonight? I am just

648
00:54:00,039 --> 00:54:07,119
fine. The pool Power of Winning
Moves, which has all kinds of games

649
00:54:07,159 --> 00:54:12,239
games that we grew up with,
and also different variations of Monopoly and risk

650
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,960
and so on and so forth,
and is known as missed the Monopoly around

651
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:20,599
the world. Are you considered Phil
Stilton the world's leading expert on Monopoly?

652
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:24,599
Well, I think by default because
Hasbro has really not done anything special with

653
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:30,239
Monopoly for about ten years now.
Okay, I've already confessed on the show

654
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:34,159
I've never played Monopoly. Actually I
did play a game and I couldn't.

655
00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:37,000
I don't remember it because we're around
the pool. There was a lot of

656
00:54:37,079 --> 00:54:42,039
the well vodka. As it turns
out, well, you certainly are in

657
00:54:42,079 --> 00:54:47,159
the minority because I think it's I
forget whether it's two billion people have played

658
00:54:47,199 --> 00:54:52,599
it worldwide by this point, but
the number of the hasbro published somewheres in

659
00:54:52,639 --> 00:54:55,400
that. What are okay? Also
with us Bill Ivey, who is an

660
00:54:55,559 --> 00:55:01,480
executive officer of Home Spread Troops Range
Ranger Army Ranges are the best in the

661
00:55:01,679 --> 00:55:05,360
army. Is that right though?
Is that what you were saying the way

662
00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:08,679
Matt? All right? Yes,
and this is still around right, I

663
00:55:08,679 --> 00:55:14,199
mean they potted Delta Force or are
they the same or can we sign no,

664
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:19,440
they're not. The Rangers are a
special operations unit. They're got a

665
00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:24,280
different mission mission that Delta does.
But got the regiment three battalions, one

666
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:29,400
station two one, two stations in
Georgia and one station in Washington, Washington

667
00:55:29,519 --> 00:55:35,039
State. Okay, in what particular
mission would you'd send ranges on as opposed

668
00:55:35,079 --> 00:55:40,079
to Green Berets or is it that
specially defined Rangers more direct action? Okay?

669
00:55:40,119 --> 00:55:45,400
Green Bras spent a lot of time
working with indigenous forces going do rage

670
00:55:46,199 --> 00:55:51,360
assaults that sort of thing. M
Oh yeah, cool, all right,

671
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:59,679
very famous X and the agent access
here retired Lieutenant carooninl MI counterintelligence slash recruitment

672
00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:06,800
right X, last recruitment. Yeah
to my worst years in twenty two years

673
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:15,440
in the army. But yes,
okay. Also I started out in armor,

674
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:22,280
thanks, and then went to tattle
intelligence, ended up in counter intelligence

675
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:30,239
and that was the most fun I've
had until I went into my second career.

676
00:56:31,519 --> 00:56:36,480
Okay, and that was that was
that a male model? Those are

677
00:56:37,519 --> 00:56:45,719
everybody says that. Wow, I
took the kid out of the hand awsome

678
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:54,239
with us nonprofit in GEO that supports
freedom. I don't know. I don't

679
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:58,239
know what you call it. On
the show, we called the agency that

680
00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:01,400
works for the agencies. So helping
us out here in the studio with the

681
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:07,239
lovely lowist Lane let us thank you
for joining us. You're welcome for having

682
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,880
me. It's lots of fun.
I'm learning a lot. But I do

683
00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:19,000
have a question for Phil about monopoly. I recently saw a Barbie Monopoly game

684
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:23,079
and your company has involved in that
or would that be something to you?

685
00:57:23,119 --> 00:57:27,920
I don't want to admit it Phili
you involved in the Bobby Monopoly at all?

686
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:32,360
Was it Barbieopoly or Barbie Monopoly?
Oh? Good question, I don't

687
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:36,519
remember. It just cut my eye
because it was Pinkin's. Is in the

688
00:57:36,519 --> 00:57:40,159
public domain and opoly games could be
made by everybody, Okay. I just

689
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:46,800
don't think Hasbro has tried to help
Mattel by licensing the official monopoly to them.

690
00:57:47,199 --> 00:57:52,320
But I'd be curious if you can
let me know via email what the

691
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:57,679
actual name is, what that is, I'll find out. There's also there's

692
00:57:57,719 --> 00:58:04,639
also Chapel Phillopoly, is it right? Okay, which I just discovered a

693
00:58:04,639 --> 00:58:07,760
couple of weeks ago, which is
a strange okay, So are you ready

694
00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:13,239
for the second half of the game
World War Two? Prince Andrew Roppolie,

695
00:58:14,159 --> 00:58:17,039
you don't want to don't be involved
in that. Did you hear that he

696
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:22,079
got invited by Ronnie Wood to join
him during the North American tour coming up

697
00:58:22,159 --> 00:58:27,440
next year? Prince Andrew? Yeah, well playing tambourine, he said,

698
00:58:27,519 --> 00:58:31,159
no. Prince Prince William, Sorry, Princes why have the Royal Why are

699
00:58:31,159 --> 00:58:36,599
you going to have the royal family
member on tour with you? I don't

700
00:58:36,639 --> 00:58:42,320
get it, you know it's another
show. Uh so when do we s

701
00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:45,760
not the second half of the game. Okay, let's see if we can

702
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:50,360
break out of this almost tie that
we have going on. So this is

703
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:55,960
World War two wall movie trivia.
And the next movie we're doing is Patton.

704
00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:04,000
Okay, I hang on please,
I'm sorry. Patten was released.

705
00:59:04,199 --> 00:59:07,039
Okay, here we go. The
next movie we're doing is Patent. It

706
00:59:07,079 --> 00:59:10,880
was released in nineteen seventy. It's
an epic movie depicting wartime activities of General

707
00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:15,119
George Patten, commander of the US
American US through At Army. Patten was

708
00:59:15,119 --> 00:59:19,440
a very controversial commander who cut results, but many times at the cost of

709
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:22,079
his men, some of whom called
him blood and guts and others called him

710
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:28,800
our blood his guts. Patten was
reprimanded several times during the war by Supreme

711
00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:36,199
Commander Dwight Eisenhower and his transgressions at
the time, and his transitions and his

712
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:40,280
transgressions are shown in the movie right
along with his heroics. The film cost

713
00:59:42,679 --> 00:59:45,119
The film cost twenty two million dollars
to make, an eventually earn fifty million

714
00:59:45,159 --> 00:59:50,360
dollars and won of SLEUV Academyic Awards
that year. Including George C. Scott

715
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:54,679
for a Best Actor and Best Screenplay
by Francis Ford Coppola who knew that Wow

716
00:59:54,920 --> 01:00:00,320
and someone named Edmund Nooth in the
first scene to the Okay, here we

717
01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:05,840
go. So question number one.
In the first scene after the intermission of

718
01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:09,599
the movie, it shows Patten first
on Corsica and then on Malta. In

719
01:00:09,599 --> 01:00:14,239
both cases he's talking to the locals, he's visiting ruins and so on.

720
01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:17,039
Then Patten says, quote, Let's
go to Cairo to see if the pyramids

721
01:00:17,079 --> 01:00:22,360
are still standing. So the question
is why was Patent traveling to all these

722
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:27,599
places in the middle of a war? And the first scene after intermission of

723
01:00:27,639 --> 01:00:31,599
the movie shows Patent first on Costco
and then on Malta talking to the locals,

724
01:00:31,679 --> 01:00:36,320
visiting ruins and so on. Then
his line is, let's go to

725
01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:38,800
Cairo to see if the pyramids are
still standing. The question is why was

726
01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:43,960
Patent traveling to all these places in
the middle of a war? A He

727
01:00:44,079 --> 01:00:47,519
was on a thirty day leave for
R and R B. He is being

728
01:00:47,559 --> 01:00:54,239
punished by Eisenhower for his transgressions.
See Eisenhower want him to be constantly on

729
01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:59,760
the move as a decoy for the
Germans ahead of D Day D. Patton

730
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:05,400
went anywhere he wanted, whenever he
wanted. Okay, right again, A

731
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:08,599
was on a thirty day leave.
B was being punished by Eisenhower. C.

732
01:01:09,239 --> 01:01:13,480
Eisenhower wanted him to be constantly on
the move as a decoy for the

733
01:01:13,519 --> 01:01:16,679
Germans. They had a D Day
D paton when anywhere he wanted and whenever

734
01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:24,480
he wanted. Let's go with Jim
being cere intriguing. I'm gonna go with

735
01:01:24,639 --> 01:01:30,440
B that because he was being punished
being punished, Okay, all right,

736
01:01:30,599 --> 01:01:39,079
Phil, I'll also say B.
Okay, general, Yeah, I think

737
01:01:39,119 --> 01:01:50,400
I'm gonna go with BA. All
right. One. Uh. The D

738
01:01:50,559 --> 01:01:52,800
answer is kind of weird, but
it sort of fits in with what I

739
01:01:52,880 --> 01:02:00,760
thought he was doing. Is that
he was a hardcore historian and he had

740
01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:04,679
this always had this past life kind
of thing like he was when he always

741
01:02:04,719 --> 01:02:10,320
kept saying I've been here when the
Carthaginians faced the etcetera, etcetera. Is

742
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:17,639
recalling these war ancient he believes he
might have been in. He was like

743
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:24,880
walking the earth and kind of re
exploring those past lives of those past memories

744
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:30,440
that he thinks he was part of
he's he is the only answer that would

745
01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:34,039
fit that what I think is the
right answer. Okay, General, The

746
01:02:34,079 --> 01:02:38,559
other answers are stupid. What was
what was d D is Paton when anywhere

747
01:02:38,599 --> 01:02:45,960
he wanted whenever he wanted, which
is kind of weird because it's not where

748
01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:50,159
he wanted it, but he seemed
to be out and about a lot right

749
01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:57,079
out about doing Yes, General,
I think i'd already Okay, I'm sorry,

750
01:02:57,079 --> 01:03:02,800
okay, X, please give me
the premise in the first question again,

751
01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:10,119
because go ahead at the there's a
scene where, you know, after

752
01:03:10,199 --> 01:03:16,280
the intermission, where it shows Patent
on Corsica and then on Malta, in

753
01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:21,880
both cases talking to the locals,
visiting ruins and so on. Then Patten

754
01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:24,599
has a line that says, let's
go to Cairo see if the pyramids are

755
01:03:24,639 --> 01:03:30,559
still standing. The question is why
was Paton traveling to all these places in

756
01:03:30,599 --> 01:03:34,039
the middle of a wall a.
He was on iron I thirty day,

757
01:03:34,079 --> 01:03:38,280
iron I B. He was being
punished by Eisenhower for his transgressions. See

758
01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:45,199
Eisenhower wanted him to be constantly on
the move as a decoy. D Okay,

759
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:51,679
phantom, Mommy, come on,
okay, Bill, go see Okay,

760
01:03:52,039 --> 01:03:55,239
Okay, okay, we got everyone, We have everyone locked and loaded.

761
01:03:55,320 --> 01:04:00,639
Let's see what's the answer. The
answer is see oh. As part

762
01:04:00,679 --> 01:04:06,199
of a deception campaign, Eisenhower used
Patent's transgressions to send on his trip throughout

763
01:04:06,199 --> 01:04:11,119
the Mediterranean and hopes the Germans would
take the bait and think that wherever Patent

764
01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:15,679
was, that's where the Allies were
going to invade. Now would he have

765
01:04:15,719 --> 01:04:17,480
done that if Patten was, you
know, had played it straight all this

766
01:04:17,639 --> 01:04:20,880
time? Who knows, But that's
what it was. The Phantom Miami was

767
01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:25,920
kind of a different thing. The
Phantomami was a little bit different. They

768
01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:29,039
wanted him, they want them to
think that it was going to come from

769
01:04:29,079 --> 01:04:32,679
the Mediterranean somewhere, and they always
had people following him. You know,

770
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:36,599
they had Germanovs's studied Patent. I
mean, that's all they were there for,

771
01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:42,079
you know. So okay, what's
the school right? Well, we

772
01:04:42,239 --> 01:04:46,920
have Bill and Tom are really running
away with it here, fellas. Sorry,

773
01:04:47,199 --> 01:04:54,679
they have fourteen, okay, Gim
and Phil have nine, and the

774
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:59,239
General and one have ten. Okay, there's still lots of those questions left,

775
01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:01,519
okay, all right, Number three, About halfway through the movie,

776
01:05:01,519 --> 01:05:08,679
pat is it Number three is okay, all right, here we go.

777
01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:12,880
Number two about halfway through the movie, Patton is turning is touring a hospital.

778
01:05:13,119 --> 01:05:15,639
Let me start that again. Number
two. Number two, About halfway

779
01:05:15,679 --> 01:05:19,480
into the movie, Patton is touring
a hospital full of wounded American soldiers.

780
01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:24,519
He sees one who looks unharmed.
He so told that the man is suffering

781
01:05:24,519 --> 01:05:29,119
from battle fatigue. Patten slaps the
man across the face accuses him of being

782
01:05:29,199 --> 01:05:33,800
a pallid. This is this is
the first of Patten's big transgressions. The

783
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:40,159
question is where did this take place? Okay, where did Patton slap the

784
01:05:40,199 --> 01:05:45,960
guy in the hospital called them a
malingra because he was there for bal fatigue.

785
01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:54,119
Where did it happen? Morocco,
Belgium, Italy Sicily Morocco, Belgium,

786
01:05:54,400 --> 01:06:02,760
Italy Sicily. Let's go to We'll
go to Bill. That was in

787
01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:18,199
Sicily x Morocco. Jim, I
say Morocco, Phil sly one. I

788
01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:23,000
asked Tom. I'm gonna go with
what Tom says. Tom, I'm stumped.

789
01:06:23,039 --> 01:06:27,239
I'm stumped on that or we host
I thought it was Sicily too.

790
01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:32,840
Okay, I'll go Sicily as well. Ok got everyone. The answer is

791
01:06:33,079 --> 01:06:40,719
yeah, d sicily. Later later
on, oh my, Bradley said,

792
01:06:41,079 --> 01:06:44,920
patent slapping that guy was the best
thing that ever happened to the American Army

793
01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:46,800
in Europe. And I'm not sure
what he means, but I think I

794
01:06:46,840 --> 01:06:51,920
get you know, no more battleful
t I guess that was a good say

795
01:06:51,960 --> 01:06:59,280
as well done. Okay, here
we go question number three. About two

796
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:01,039
thirds of the way through the movie, there's a famous scene where Patton is

797
01:07:01,079 --> 01:07:04,360
acting as a traffic cop trying to
get all his tanks moving in the right

798
01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:09,920
direction. Omar Bradley arrives to tell
him that while he's doing a great job,

799
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:13,840
he has to give all of the
Third Armies ammunition, fuel, and

800
01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:20,119
supplies to Bernard Montgomery, the British
commander. This infuriates Patten, but the

801
01:07:20,199 --> 01:07:27,960
orders come right from Eisenhower. Why
was Montgomery getting these supplies? Start again?

802
01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:30,119
About two thirds of the way through
the movie, there's a famous scene

803
01:07:30,119 --> 01:07:33,320
where Patton is acting as a traffic
cop trying to get all his tanks moving

804
01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:38,000
in the right direction. Omar Bradley
rives to tell him, while he's doing

805
01:07:38,039 --> 01:07:42,639
a good job, he has to
stop because all of the Third Armies ammunition,

806
01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:45,400
fuels, and supplies had to go
to Bernard Montgomery, the British commander.

807
01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:49,360
This infuriates Patten, but the order
has come right down from Eisenhower.

808
01:07:49,719 --> 01:07:56,079
Question three is what did Montgomery need
the supplies fall A to drive directly into

809
01:07:56,079 --> 01:08:01,920
Berlin B for Operation mackgotten ce to
finally conquer the Germans around the city of

810
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:08,239
con D to attack the V one
and V two bases. Okay, A

811
01:08:08,480 --> 01:08:14,400
to drive right to Berlin B for
Operation Market Garden C to finally conquer the

812
01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:17,560
Germans around the city of con D
to attack the V one and V two

813
01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:25,359
bases. We'll start with General Tom. One of the few questions that I

814
01:08:25,399 --> 01:08:35,079
think I'm actually fairly sure of,
and it's Market Garden B one. Oh

815
01:08:35,239 --> 01:08:39,600
man, I thought it was going
to be too brilin because they were like

816
01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:42,319
almost there. But I'm gonna have
to go with Tom. I'm going to

817
01:08:42,359 --> 01:08:49,479
go with Tom again. I'm hanging
on his uh coattails. B Are they

818
01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:53,680
in last place? Yeah? Yeah, okay, okay, I just wanted

819
01:08:53,680 --> 01:09:00,560
to bring um Sorry, Ax,
what do you say, Margan market basket?

820
01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:09,399
Bill Malcom acid? Right? You
know what a man? Yes?

821
01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:13,760
Yeah, Bill? What you say? I say? Be as well?

822
01:09:14,199 --> 01:09:17,880
I think conn was over with by
that point. Okay, Jim Us,

823
01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:25,760
I'm going with Market Garden, okay. And Bill did get yours. Yep,

824
01:09:25,960 --> 01:09:30,119
everybody said, everyone said, B
yeah, it is b it is

825
01:09:30,159 --> 01:09:35,520
be yeah. And the thing is
is that talk about another movie A Bridge

826
01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:39,960
too Far. Operation malcam Gotten was
just a failure. I mean, what

827
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:45,359
they tried to do was capture I
think four bridges through this highway through Holland

828
01:09:45,359 --> 01:09:47,840
which would lead right into Germany.
I mean, on paper it must have

829
01:09:47,920 --> 01:09:53,960
looked good, but this road was
just surrounded by Germans on both sides,

830
01:09:54,039 --> 01:09:57,880
and they landed I mean, you
know, if you saw the movie,

831
01:09:58,239 --> 01:10:02,079
you know the straight they landed a
lot of bridge pass our troops in one

832
01:10:02,119 --> 01:10:08,640
of the bridges in on them and
they were stranded there. And I mean

833
01:10:08,800 --> 01:10:10,640
just the fact that they were able
to get out a lot of them,

834
01:10:10,680 --> 01:10:13,880
we were able to get out alive, was you know, kind of like

835
01:10:13,920 --> 01:10:17,439
a uh a victory in the in
the face of the defeat. But it

836
01:10:17,560 --> 01:10:25,960
was just a real overspending of these
resources or something stupid, something done for

837
01:10:26,119 --> 01:10:30,680
politics. More than anything. I
felt that it was difficult to watch because

838
01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:33,279
we knew it was going to result
in failure. Right, yeah, you

839
01:10:33,319 --> 01:10:40,520
know the end of the movie.
But the point point is that Paton was

840
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:44,199
on a role. This was the
second time, right, he could have

841
01:10:44,279 --> 01:10:50,640
ended the war, could have ended
the war because we all love President Eisenhower,

842
01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:57,279
we all did appease the British.
Well there's politics. It's politics comes

843
01:10:57,319 --> 01:11:00,920
into the wall. He could have
after Kalai then he could have gone right

844
01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:05,359
into the heart of Germany and they
turned the gas off. And that's not

845
01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:12,359
a myth, that's not yeah story, that's true. Okay, oh yeah,

846
01:11:12,600 --> 01:11:16,199
hundreds Well I don't know a hundreds, but thousands of people Germans,

847
01:11:16,319 --> 01:11:23,159
American, French, English died because
of that decision. Ye, yes,

848
01:11:23,439 --> 01:11:28,000
right, But it just it just
shows that politics comes into war like all

849
01:11:28,039 --> 01:11:30,720
the time. You know, we
always think, let's let's let's all just

850
01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:33,239
sit down and figure out the best
way to win this the quickest way.

851
01:11:33,279 --> 01:11:35,720
But you know, you get a
lot of people that you have to please.

852
01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:40,600
Oh, here we go. Actually, it's cool about that movie is

853
01:11:40,600 --> 01:11:47,039
that you saw the politics get thrown
in there by virtue of whom I think

854
01:11:47,079 --> 01:11:56,880
of the Walden Yes, right,
yeah, And he's like he's like the

855
01:11:56,920 --> 01:12:02,279
bearer of bad tidings every time you
turn around Bimar broadly is busiting off baton

856
01:12:02,359 --> 01:12:05,000
left and right. I'm sorry,
Bill, were you going to say something?

857
01:12:05,159 --> 01:12:12,039
Bill? Bill? What are you
going to say? In the Bridge

858
01:12:12,039 --> 01:12:15,720
too Far? Robert Redford played a
child commander in the eighty second file of

859
01:12:15,840 --> 01:12:21,359
Fourth Parachuting Regiment. The real guy
came to a reunion at Bragg when I

860
01:12:21,399 --> 01:12:24,880
was in the eighty second and we
were talking to him, and he's talking

861
01:12:24,920 --> 01:12:28,279
about things, and he said,
hey, when you crossed the Wall river

862
01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:32,199
and if you remember in the movie
scene the machine guns going off, yes,

863
01:12:32,319 --> 01:12:36,760
showry people are saying hell Mary,
yes, paddling with oars, paddling

864
01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:41,119
with rifles. And one of the
guys asked him, was it really that

865
01:12:41,199 --> 01:12:45,039
bad? And he said, you
know, he had fought in North Africa

866
01:12:45,079 --> 01:12:47,359
with the eighty second. He had
jumped into Sicily, he jumped into Slanta

867
01:12:47,399 --> 01:12:53,479
now five, the fourth state in
Italy when the eighty second went back to

868
01:12:53,560 --> 01:12:57,279
jump into d Day. So they
were pretty much in combat all the way

869
01:12:57,359 --> 01:13:00,039
right up until they went into Market
Garden. He said, when he got

870
01:13:00,079 --> 01:13:03,880
the farest side of the river,
as a Chian commander, he personally killed

871
01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:08,439
three Germans with his weapon. He
said it was the first time in war

872
01:13:08,640 --> 01:13:12,479
at this point giv him combat for
over two years that he had fired his

873
01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:15,840
weapon. Wow, weird. Yeah, yeah, well that's that happens.

874
01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:19,359
You know. It's like a coop
is a clap of thirty years and he

875
01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:21,800
might take his gun at once.
You know. It's strange, you know.

876
01:13:24,079 --> 01:13:27,600
But it was that bad, right, it was that bad. Yeah,

877
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:30,880
it was pretty bad. Yeah,
I remember that scene. Then when

878
01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:33,359
he was asked, what does your
wife think of Robert refre playing, he

879
01:13:33,479 --> 01:13:39,760
said, thanks so much? By
looking who I need something to cut the

880
01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:46,279
act? All right, well,
I'm sure you okay. Last question having

881
01:13:46,319 --> 01:13:50,920
to do with Patten. During the
Battle of the Bulge, Patton is told

882
01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:55,840
that the US command inside the besiege
town of Bestam, his name was General

883
01:13:55,920 --> 01:14:00,079
mccauliffe, had a one word reply
for a Nazi officer who suggested the American

884
01:14:00,119 --> 01:14:05,000
forces surrender. When told of the
American officer's reply, Patten said, a

885
01:14:05,039 --> 01:14:10,920
man that eloquent has to be saved. Question for is what did General mccolloff

886
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:18,520
reply to the Nazi surrender request?
You want to for this lowest? He

887
01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:27,439
come on, there's the option,
Okay, A balls, B, grapes,

888
01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:36,720
C, nuts, D testicles during
the Battle of the Bulls, Pattens

889
01:14:36,720 --> 01:14:45,239
told that your brain is in the
gutter. Mac. Wow, I'm just

890
01:14:45,319 --> 01:14:50,640
reporting historical facts. Do I have
to repeat it? I don't have to

891
01:14:50,680 --> 01:14:55,399
read that again? There, Okay, okay? What was what was General

892
01:14:55,439 --> 01:15:00,359
mccollough's reply to the Nazi uh off
of for surrender in the and Circle time

893
01:15:00,399 --> 01:15:04,520
the best on during the Battle of
the Bulbs. Let's go to gym mister

894
01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:15,119
big nuts nuts. I feel everyone's
phil nuts, General nuts one, please

895
01:15:15,159 --> 01:15:28,640
say testicles, wal nuts x,
NUSA nuts and bill nuts. Everyone got

896
01:15:28,680 --> 01:15:34,079
it right. The German commander did
not know what it meant. It's right,

897
01:15:34,960 --> 01:15:39,239
What does he mean? What does
he mean? What does nuts?

898
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:44,920
Yeah, he didn't know what it
means because of an American colloquial question.

899
01:15:45,159 --> 01:15:51,239
Yeah, but when I think German
commander knew what NUSA means, go ahead,

900
01:15:51,239 --> 01:15:56,439
please Jim. Well, when I
hear nuts, you know, I

901
01:15:56,479 --> 01:16:00,520
mean in World War two, I
wonder that there are people hearing nuts,

902
01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:05,119
thought immediately of testicles. Really,
I don't think so we're gonna have to

903
01:16:05,119 --> 01:16:11,279
go really no, really, that's
what I said. Your brain is in

904
01:16:11,319 --> 01:16:15,279
the gutter, Mac. I thought, this is sudden sudden case, yes

905
01:16:15,399 --> 01:16:21,560
exactly, or in this case,
admit, screw you buddy? Do you

906

907
01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:38,039
Who's got that? Thank you?

908
01:16:38,039 --> 01:16:42,079

909
01:16:42,199 --> 01:16:45,960
Uh? Do you want to do
the scores again? Okay? Saving

910
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:48,279
Private Ryan? For a while I
mented meant to bone up on it,

911
01:16:48,319 --> 01:16:51,600
and I didn't, but I saw
it a while back. Okay, go

912
01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:56,119
ahead, all right, Well we
still have a close game. People really

913
01:16:56,159 --> 01:17:02,439
know their stuff war movie history.
Maybe there reason questions the general. Maybe

914
01:17:02,840 --> 01:17:10,640
the General and Juan have sixteen points, Jim and Phil have fourteen points,

915
01:17:10,720 --> 01:17:16,039
and Bill and X are still in
the lead with nineteen wow nineteen wow.

916
01:17:16,159 --> 01:17:20,279
Okay, here we go, shooting
along the way. You guys, I

917
01:17:20,359 --> 01:17:26,439
have to check that Morocco versus Sicily. I think he hit him in Sicily,

918
01:17:27,119 --> 01:17:30,039
but he got slammed and he wound
up in Morocco. Great, he

919
01:17:30,119 --> 01:17:34,359
hit him in Morocco and get slammed
when he moved to Sicily. OK that's

920
01:17:34,399 --> 01:17:38,319
what I thought. I'm sure you're
right. Got the press conference. You're

921
01:17:38,359 --> 01:17:41,439
in the lead. What do you
bitching about that exactly. Don't question,

922
01:17:41,840 --> 01:17:46,600
but he wants to be precise.
He is important. Okay, we're on

923
01:17:46,640 --> 01:17:49,640
the home turn. Here, here
we go. Saving Private Ryan Saving Private

924
01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:55,119
Ryan was made nineteen ninety eight.
It's an American epic WAH film directed by

925
01:17:55,119 --> 01:18:00,479
Steven Spielberg and written by someone named
Robert Rode. Set in nineteen forty four

926
01:18:00,560 --> 01:18:02,920
in France, during Roller who Had
follows a group of soldiers led by Captain

927
01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:08,439
John Miller, the Tom Hanks character, on their mission to locate Private James

928
01:18:08,520 --> 01:18:12,319
Francis Ryan, who is played by
Matt Damon, and bring him home safely

929
01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:16,520
after his three brothers are killed in
action. After a brutally shot sequence of

930
01:18:16,600 --> 01:18:21,039
US troops landing on Normindy on D
Day, the United States Department of War

931
01:18:21,199 --> 01:18:25,479
receives communication that three of the four
Ryan brothers have been killed in action.

932
01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:30,920
The last of the James of the
one and first Airborne Division is listed as

933
01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:36,800
missing in action. The Chief of
Army, George Marshall, orders that Ryan

934
01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:41,239
be found and sent home to spare
his family the loss of its sons.

935
01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:45,640
Miller, the Tom Hanks character,
is tasked recovering Ryan and assembles a detachment

936
01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:54,199
of soldiers to accompany him. Question
number one, how many men go out

937
01:18:54,239 --> 01:19:02,279
on the mission to find Private Ryan, including Tom Hanks's character. How many

938
01:19:02,600 --> 01:19:06,000
men go out on the mission to
find Private Ryan, including Tom Hanks?

939
01:19:06,359 --> 01:19:13,199
A it's a twelve man squad,
B seven men, C eight D ten.

940
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:16,359
How many people go out looking for
Private Ryan? Twelve man squad,

941
01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:26,439
seven men, eight or ten?
Let's go to x well. A squad

942
01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:30,279
is typically twelve men. I don't
remember. I didn't count them all,

943
01:19:30,680 --> 01:19:35,520
but it's a movie, so eight
I don't know. Okay, Bill,

944
01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:44,680
I would go at eight, General, I think it's eight one. I

945
01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:48,920
gotta go with the general. Jim, thanks forlot one one. Either either

946
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:54,760
doing well or we're going down and
playing. No, that's what I'm surfing

947
01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:57,439
with you, man, I'm on
the same bard with you. Do you

948
01:19:57,439 --> 01:20:00,399
go? That's the thing? U
A lot to talk and believe me,

949
01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:04,760
Jim, please, it's Phil first? Oh Phil, go ahead, Phil?

950
01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:11,800
Yeah? Twelve men, seven men, eight men, ten men?

951
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:15,720
It's eight okay, Jim, I
guess I'm going to go with eight as

952
01:20:15,720 --> 01:20:19,439
well. Okay, we get everyone, we do, and everybody kicked the

953
01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:28,680
same answer. Oh, it's B
seven seven and has whoa wrong. Is

954
01:20:28,720 --> 01:20:31,840
that including Miller or not? Yes? Including him? Yeah? Six guys

955
01:20:31,840 --> 01:20:36,520
and tim? Wow, Now there
is a question one A for no points?

956
01:20:36,520 --> 01:20:41,279
How many survive? Wait? Wait, wait are you sure at seven?

957
01:20:41,359 --> 01:20:44,479
I thought I thought it was eight? No, no, this I

958
01:20:44,560 --> 01:20:50,159
counted it today, you counted it. They don't trust your counting. I

959
01:20:50,159 --> 01:20:54,039
mean I read the I mean I
read the cat frame the shot, and

960
01:20:54,079 --> 01:20:58,439
then you counted the people that signed
out. Now you read the cat saying

961
01:20:58,479 --> 01:21:02,399
we're going after who? Question one
A question one? How many survive?

962
01:21:04,159 --> 01:21:11,479
You know? None? Seven two
or one? None? Seven two or

963
01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:17,680
one? And he guesses this is
in the movie. Yep, yep,

964
01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:24,520
it's just yes, yeah, I
was gonna gets too. Also, yeah,

965
01:21:24,520 --> 01:21:29,079
it is two. It's true.
That's two two. Is that a

966
01:21:29,119 --> 01:21:33,000
real question or is that just now
that's just a fun fact. Okay,

967
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,560
we got that right, huh everyone, Yes, we did? Okay.

968
01:21:35,680 --> 01:21:42,359
Number two. The brutally realistic sequence
on Omaha Beach that opens the movie involved

969
01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:46,439
up to fifteen hundred extras, thirty
of whom were amputees issued prosthetic arms to

970
01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:51,199
play soldiers who had them limbs blown
off. God. The brutality of these

971
01:21:51,199 --> 01:21:56,720
scenes in particular was so realistic.
Many World War Two veterans had to leave

972
01:21:56,800 --> 01:22:00,920
theaters during the D Day scene due
to pt S Steve reactions. It's I

973
01:22:00,960 --> 01:22:05,079
believe it. It's brutal to watch
it, really is. It was tough

974
01:22:05,079 --> 01:22:09,000
for me to watch it. Yeah, and that's why I think this and

975
01:22:09,079 --> 01:22:12,479
I have comments on this movie when
we get to the NTA, but I

976
01:22:12,479 --> 01:22:16,319
think it should be required viewing for
high school seniors. Do you know what

977
01:22:16,359 --> 01:22:19,279
I mean? If you're going to
go in, this is what it is,

978
01:22:19,319 --> 01:22:21,680
man, this is what it is
if you want to do it.

979
01:22:23,279 --> 01:22:26,479
But you know it's not like in
the time. Special effects were just amazed,

980
01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:30,159
incredible, incredible, and was way
short on its recruiting goals already.

981
01:22:30,199 --> 01:22:38,399
I don't think okay, sorry,
any good point. It made the longest

982
01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:43,439
day landing scenes came in comparison,
right right, Yeah, no, limits

983
01:22:43,439 --> 01:22:47,680
were blowing aport not no, Okay. The question is where was this epic

984
01:22:47,800 --> 01:22:57,119
sequence shot? Where was the shot
at the four answers? First? Yeah,

985
01:22:57,119 --> 01:23:00,279
I'm gonna do the four answers?
Phil? Phil? Was that you?

986
01:23:00,920 --> 01:23:02,800
Oh, here's the four answers?
Okay? Balance, thank you,

987
01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:11,920
AX to screw me up Bonesca Cove, Ireland Hamstruck Beach, Holland, Normandy

988
01:23:12,159 --> 01:23:17,800
Beach in France, Manhattan Beach in
California. Where was this incredible scene from

989
01:23:18,399 --> 01:23:23,720
saving Private Ryan the landings on Omaha
Beach? Where did they actually shoot it?

990
01:23:23,800 --> 01:23:30,560
Was it in Ireland, Holland,
Normandy itself or in California? Leaves

991
01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:38,720
Phil for Phil? Please, I'll
say a Ireland. Okay, all right,

992
01:23:39,199 --> 01:23:45,760
go ahead, Jim. Oh goodness, I'm gonna say Manhattan Beach,

993
01:23:46,439 --> 01:24:01,000
Jannie, Ireland, General Ireland.
Bill think it's California as Ireland. Okay,

994
01:24:01,039 --> 01:24:05,159
we got everyone Ireland, Yes,
we do. The answer is Island.

995
01:24:05,399 --> 01:24:09,600
Oh it is, okay, it
was filmed in I can't say this

996
01:24:09,960 --> 01:24:14,359
Bowen Nesca Cove, Ireland. Many
of the extras were members of the Irish

997
01:24:14,479 --> 01:24:19,079
Army Reserve. It costs more than
twelve million dollars just to film that sequence,

998
01:24:19,399 --> 01:24:24,359
okay, almost as much as long
as they us. I was I

999
01:24:24,520 --> 01:24:31,640
was just going to tie this question
with the last one. I'm sorry.

1000
01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:40,479
This question was. You're right there
were Irish Army reservists after the French would

1001
01:24:40,520 --> 01:24:44,479
not permit filming in Normandy. Yeah, that was that right, Yeah,

1002
01:24:45,399 --> 01:24:50,720
yeah, okay. The third question
having to do with saving Private Ryane number

1003
01:24:50,720 --> 01:24:55,920
three. The vast majority of films
quote unquote story boarded before they being in

1004
01:24:56,119 --> 01:25:00,520
production. This is a process with
nearly every scene in the movie is like

1005
01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:04,479
a comic strip in chronological order.
This storyboard is then matched with the script

1006
01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:11,439
before filming begins on Saving Private Ryan. However, Spielberg, Steven Spielberg,

1007
01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:15,720
the director, chose not to storyboard
the movie. Why did he make this

1008
01:25:15,800 --> 01:25:19,039
highly unusual decision? Okay, you
know they storyboard movies. They match it

1009
01:25:19,079 --> 01:25:23,359
with the script, and that's basically
how they shoot the movie. They want

1010
01:25:23,399 --> 01:25:27,600
to see most of the scenes visually
in front of them before they shoot it.

1011
01:25:28,680 --> 01:25:32,079
Okay, So why did he not
storyboard such an important movie. A.

1012
01:25:32,840 --> 01:25:38,279
The film was rushed into production and
he didn't have time. B A

1013
01:25:38,279 --> 01:25:43,359
Hollywood Union of Artist strike at the
time wouldn't allow it. See he wanted

1014
01:25:43,399 --> 01:25:47,640
the movie to be ad libbed and
look realistic. D. The storyboard was

1015
01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:53,920
stolen at Cork Airport in Ireland and
never replaced. Okay. A. The

1016
01:25:53,960 --> 01:25:58,079
film was rushed into production and he
didn't have time. B. A Hollywood

1017
01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:01,800
artist strike at the time wouldn't allow
it. See, he wanted the movie

1018
01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:06,319
to be adlived and look realistic.
Deed, the storyboard was stolen at Cork

1019
01:26:06,399 --> 01:26:17,640
Airport and never replaced. Let's go
to let's go to X in this no

1020
01:26:17,760 --> 01:26:21,840
idea. What a not keen subject. But what did you say, B

1021
01:26:23,199 --> 01:26:27,840
was tell me again? A Hollywood
Union of das strike at the time wouldn't

1022
01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:34,560
allow it. They also dumb.
But I'll go with that one. Okay,

1023
01:26:34,840 --> 01:26:41,960
B Bill at least as well versed
as my partner is. But I'll

1024
01:26:41,960 --> 01:26:45,000
go with C to spread there out
a little bit realism. See, he

1025
01:26:45,039 --> 01:26:50,600
wanted the movie to be adlibd and
look realistic, okay, general, Yeah,

1026
01:26:50,600 --> 01:26:58,760
I wanted to be spontaneously. Also, he also shot this thing write

1027
01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:00,880
in order. A lot of times
they shoot scenes back and forth all the

1028
01:27:00,920 --> 01:27:03,720
time. You go to this scene, the last scene may get filmed first.

1029
01:27:04,279 --> 01:27:11,640
Shut this from beginning. Then that's
that's the option C. Yeah,

1030
01:27:11,279 --> 01:27:15,800
yeah, he's right about that.
It was his intent was filmed and continuity.

1031
01:27:16,760 --> 01:27:21,760
Mm hmm. Hey, Jim,
I'm want to go with C.

1032
01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:30,800
Okay, and Phil, I'll also
go with C for lib Okay. Yeah,

1033
01:27:30,840 --> 01:27:36,239
the answer is see, but you
know, I'm gonna make my comments

1034
01:27:36,239 --> 01:27:40,560
on this movie at the end.
I think that's He also filmed it in

1035
01:27:40,640 --> 01:27:47,760
this uh where you it looks it's
not it's not smoothly. The the film

1036
01:27:47,800 --> 01:27:50,880
doesn't look smooth. It looks a
little bit like a newsreel but not Yeah

1037
01:27:50,920 --> 01:27:57,119
that yeah, band band of brothers
also the same way. Yeah yeah,

1038
01:27:57,960 --> 01:28:02,319
uh okay, like like stop,
it's like almost free streams like the bullet

1039
01:28:02,399 --> 01:28:08,119
hit. Yeah yeah yeah yeah,
it's like and the sound that goes with

1040
01:28:08,199 --> 01:28:13,640
it is just you actually feel it
the couch. You feel like you're looking

1041
01:28:13,640 --> 01:28:16,119
at it. You feel like you
got shot. Okay, here we go.

1042
01:28:16,279 --> 01:28:20,119
Wow, it is the last question
that we listen to the movie with

1043
01:28:20,159 --> 01:28:25,600
headphones. Let's let's give the scores
now, because this is the last question,

1044
01:28:25,760 --> 01:28:28,119
the deciding fact. There we go. Okay, here we go.

1045
01:28:28,279 --> 01:28:32,640
That's a great movie. Yeah,
well, some people think, where do

1046
01:28:32,640 --> 01:28:36,199
you think of Steven Spielberg as a
director? Let's let's yeah, let's get

1047
01:28:36,199 --> 01:28:42,199
the fourth question. Yes, here
we go. Fourth question. The scores

1048
01:28:42,359 --> 01:28:49,520
are scores? Jim and Phil have
seventeen, the General and one have nineteen,

1049
01:28:49,760 --> 01:28:56,800
yes, and Bill and X have
twenty one. Wow, Okay,

1050
01:28:57,000 --> 01:29:00,520
I never know what's going to happen. Let's see we go. H question

1051
01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:04,840
four and this scene okay. At
at the end of the movie, and

1052
01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:11,039
now elderly Private Ryan is visiting an
American military cemetery, remembering the people who

1053
01:29:11,079 --> 01:29:14,800
died to save him. Question four. In this scene, what does the

1054
01:29:14,840 --> 01:29:20,840
now elderly Private Ryan say to his
wife? Okay, ay, tell me

1055
01:29:20,920 --> 01:29:27,079
that I'm a good man. B
six guys died so I could live.

1056
01:29:28,159 --> 01:29:32,039
See. I wish my brothers could
be here with me. D What are

1057
01:29:32,039 --> 01:29:43,479
you doing in this shitty, overrated
movie? You hot less? Go ahead?

1058
01:29:43,680 --> 01:29:56,520
X x A. What was it
saying again? Tell me I'm a

1059
01:29:56,520 --> 01:30:06,600
good man? Is a okay,
go ahead, okay, general, Hey,

1060
01:30:06,840 --> 01:30:11,239
tell me I'm a good man,
lived a good life. One.

1061
01:30:11,720 --> 01:30:15,039
Yeah, I got the same answer. Their foot Phil, It's it's a

1062
01:30:15,760 --> 01:30:24,039
jim Yeah he yep, that's the
line. Here's my Here's here's my little

1063
01:30:24,159 --> 01:30:27,760
Everyone got that. Here's my little
take on Steven Spielberg. You don't let

1064
01:30:27,760 --> 01:30:30,159
everything up. Yeah. I think
the movie, Like I said, I

1065
01:30:30,159 --> 01:30:34,760
think the movie should be required viewing
for everybody. It's because it's such a

1066
01:30:34,800 --> 01:30:40,479
realistic wa movie. You know,
they don't they don't cut any corners,

1067
01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:45,000
they don't you know, they don't
sugar coat any of it. But let's

1068
01:30:45,039 --> 01:30:48,479
face it, and I'm glad we
have some veterans here to answer this question.

1069
01:30:48,680 --> 01:30:55,680
If you get a order from the
head of the army, which had

1070
01:30:55,720 --> 01:30:59,000
to have come from the White House, and you have to find this guy,

1071
01:30:59,560 --> 01:31:01,520
what do you send seven guys out
for him? Why don't you send

1072
01:31:01,680 --> 01:31:05,159
you know, seventy tanks out for
him? Why don't you do you know

1073
01:31:05,199 --> 01:31:09,640
what I mean, If it's so
important, why do you send these guys,

1074
01:31:09,800 --> 01:31:14,920
you know, and on such an
important mission? And that whole idea

1075
01:31:14,920 --> 01:31:16,720
of shooting in a sequence, I
get it, you know, But there

1076
01:31:16,720 --> 01:31:20,560
are just sometimes in that movie where
it's like these guys are on a hike,

1077
01:31:21,159 --> 01:31:23,920
you know what I mean, They're
on a hike, and they're talking

1078
01:31:23,920 --> 01:31:26,760
about what it's like back home,
and you know, Sally Joe is going

1079
01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:31,720
to marry me, and they're supposed
to be very very deep in enemy territory.

1080
01:31:33,439 --> 01:31:36,520
I think it's a good movie for
the reasons I mentioned. I'm not

1081
01:31:36,560 --> 01:31:41,960
a big Spielberg fan. I know
he's very famous, but because I went

1082
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:46,680
to film school and ruined me forever
on his movies, and I mean I

1083
01:31:46,680 --> 01:31:50,640
appreciate the movies that he's made,
especially this in Shindler's list. If he

1084
01:31:50,680 --> 01:31:55,760
never did anything other than most two
movies, he's still a great director.

1085
01:31:56,239 --> 01:32:01,119
But he's not really a good storyteller. He really isn't. And I don't

1086
01:32:01,119 --> 01:32:08,359
know. That's my take on on
Spielberg. You're against the concept. The

1087
01:32:08,399 --> 01:32:11,800
whole concept of the movie is sending
out the squad, right, why wouldn't

1088
01:32:11,800 --> 01:32:15,239
you send the whole eighty second after
this, he's like, he's, you

1089
01:32:15,279 --> 01:32:19,239
know, hold up in some village
someplace, and they're knocking on doors and

1090
01:32:19,239 --> 01:32:21,680
saying, hey, have you seen
this guy? Yeah? Sorry, you

1091
01:32:21,680 --> 01:32:25,600
know, holding up a picture.
Yes, ahead. Place to go into

1092
01:32:25,640 --> 01:32:31,720
your your comment about them seeing walking
across the fields. There is one scene

1093
01:32:32,239 --> 01:32:38,000
where they have one too many guys
walking across the field because they've already suffered

1094
01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:41,920
one or two casualies. Count the
guys in the field. There's one too

1095
01:32:41,920 --> 01:32:46,239
many. It's that's a continuity problem. Yeah, that's a flub. Yeah,

1096
01:32:46,279 --> 01:32:49,560
that's a flub. And and and
just you know, so they run

1097
01:32:49,640 --> 01:32:54,680
this mission in there and it's it's
it's highly secret but very very important,

1098
01:32:54,760 --> 01:32:57,920
and they come upon like this machine
gun nest is just like out in the

1099
01:32:57,920 --> 01:33:00,680
middle of nowhere. I mean,
would you really attack, you know what

1100
01:33:00,680 --> 01:33:02,119
I mean? Or would you just
kind of well, yeah, and why

1101
01:33:02,159 --> 01:33:05,880
would you have this is the one
thing that really got me in the movie.

1102
01:33:06,199 --> 01:33:12,840
Why would you have your medic be
part of this attack and get killed

1103
01:33:12,840 --> 01:33:15,359
as a result? Right, Yeah, you need him left, Yeah,

1104
01:33:15,399 --> 01:33:17,760
you need him. Yeah, they're
all by himself coming in throwing grenades and

1105
01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:21,119
they throw him back at him and
boom, he's he's gone minutes later.

1106
01:33:21,399 --> 01:33:26,520
Yeah, it's there's a lot of
reviews in it. It's it's widely praised,

1107
01:33:26,760 --> 01:33:29,840
but there's a lot of kind of
native reviews and called it kind of

1108
01:33:29,880 --> 01:33:33,399
almost pornographic the way the violence is
shown, and especially in the end,

1109
01:33:33,439 --> 01:33:36,399
the way they're fighting the Germans and
the little town. And then someone said

1110
01:33:36,720 --> 01:33:40,920
the Germans wouldn't be out in the
broad daylight like that. Moving for the

1111
01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:45,479
p fifty one the bomb, right, it's the planes don't come into the

1112
01:33:45,520 --> 01:33:50,199
last possible minute. You get the
impression that this town with the paratroop presented,

1113
01:33:50,359 --> 01:33:55,840
is completely cut off, which stretches
the imagination. And you know,

1114
01:33:56,039 --> 01:34:00,039
considering the fact that it wasn't that
far from Omaha Beach, right, I

1115
01:34:00,119 --> 01:34:01,920
think we all of us, he'll
probably know a little bit too much,

1116
01:34:02,840 --> 01:34:05,920
you know what I mean, how
the sausage is made. And yeah,

1117
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:12,359
so anyway, would you say that
that movie is a good film school dissecting

1118
01:34:12,920 --> 01:34:17,920
move exercise? I asked you a
question why they said some guys man,

1119
01:34:18,159 --> 01:34:27,560
Yes, please, they were all
rangers. I got two things I want

1120
01:34:27,600 --> 01:34:31,359
to say about the movie. The
first is that when I saw the movie

1121
01:34:31,399 --> 01:34:38,800
for the first time, I just
broke up because my father in World War

1122
01:34:38,840 --> 01:34:44,000
Two wasn't five invasions. None of
them were probably as bad as D Day

1123
01:34:44,159 --> 01:34:48,520
because they were in the Mediterranean,
Africa, in southern France. But you

1124
01:34:48,560 --> 01:34:54,000
know a lot of times this landing
ship was was not where it should be

1125
01:34:54,159 --> 01:34:58,039
and they were under heavy fire when
they landed. Uh. And it just

1126
01:34:58,159 --> 01:35:04,079
got home to me what he went
through for almost four years on behalf of

1127
01:35:04,119 --> 01:35:09,119
the country at me because you know, I wouldn't be here otherwise. And

1128
01:35:09,119 --> 01:35:12,159
then the other thing I wanted to
say is that as a result of this

1129
01:35:12,279 --> 01:35:18,760
movie, I had a burning desire
to actually see Normandy and especially the Omaha

1130
01:35:19,039 --> 01:35:24,720
Beach. And I got that opportunity
in two thousand and five with an English

1131
01:35:24,760 --> 01:35:28,439
guide by the way, which was
wonderful, and I walked up that beach

1132
01:35:28,479 --> 01:35:30,399
and I walked up the cliff,
and then when you get to the top

1133
01:35:30,439 --> 01:35:36,079
of the cliff, behind it is
the American Cemetery. When you stand at

1134
01:35:36,079 --> 01:35:41,479
the entry to the cemetery, you
know it's completely quiet. Those white crosses

1135
01:35:41,560 --> 01:35:47,039
are perfectly aligned in diagonals and rows. And you start to look at the

1136
01:35:47,279 --> 01:35:55,039
names and the birth and death date
on each of these crosses, and almost

1137
01:35:55,119 --> 01:35:59,520
all of them they're nineteen and twenty, maybe twenty one. A few captains

1138
01:35:59,520 --> 01:36:04,439
are twenty two, and they're all
dead within like a week of unbelievable.

1139
01:36:04,640 --> 01:36:09,000
It's very poignant, experienced. I
don't know if anyone else here has had

1140
01:36:09,039 --> 01:36:14,760
that opportunity, but it's since we
all have an affinity for military history.

1141
01:36:14,800 --> 01:36:16,680
All I can tell you is if
you go, just be prepared for a

1142
01:36:16,920 --> 01:36:20,359
very strong emotional reason. Right.
Yes, it's like the Vietnam Wall.

1143
01:36:20,600 --> 01:36:26,239
We went to see the Vietnam Wall
this summer, and I knew two people

1144
01:36:26,319 --> 01:36:31,159
who are on the wall. I
knew them, but my emotional reaction was

1145
01:36:32,399 --> 01:36:34,880
I had to sit down, I
had we had to leave the area in

1146
01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:41,439
I just yeah, it was very
powerful. So anyway, okay, who

1147
01:36:41,560 --> 01:36:45,720
won lois? So the winners I'll
say say the lose, I mean the

1148
01:36:45,800 --> 01:36:50,399
third place. So okay, so
here we go, go ahead. Jim

1149
01:36:50,520 --> 01:36:59,800
and Phil came in third place.
I'm surprised Rond very respectively, especially nineteen

1150
01:37:00,600 --> 01:37:04,720
when second place had twenty one.
Okay, go ahead, and now general

1151
01:37:04,920 --> 01:37:12,720
and one and then Bill and X
the winners. They are the winners switch

1152
01:37:12,800 --> 01:37:16,159
twenty three. So the scores are
so close. That's right, that's good.

1153
01:37:16,600 --> 01:37:19,640
I know, uh, Bill will
be gracious in victory. I know

1154
01:37:20,680 --> 01:37:28,720
X. Well, never let me
forget this. That's got chest. There

1155
01:37:28,760 --> 01:37:33,520
you go. So, so the
the prize tonight is one hundred dollars to

1156
01:37:33,600 --> 01:37:38,640
you two guys. Congratulations. How
do you plan to spend the money.

1157
01:37:40,560 --> 01:37:45,359
It's giving Tuesday h five. Okay, right to troops. You've got good

1158
01:37:45,439 --> 01:37:51,199
plan. Please everyone out there.
That's great, man, that's great.

1159
01:37:51,359 --> 01:37:55,680
Just everyone listening. Just google home
strut troops. See what they were about.

1160
01:37:56,399 --> 01:38:00,399
Ninety cents of your dollar goes right
toelve veterans. And we've seen it

1161
01:38:00,479 --> 01:38:03,199
firsthand. It's just great. What
you guys do, it really is.

1162
01:38:03,399 --> 01:38:09,399
And that you do twenty five homes
a year, that's amazing. But that

1163
01:38:09,560 --> 01:38:14,640
the waiting list is a thousand people
that's that's a hill decline, man.

1164
01:38:15,520 --> 01:38:17,800
Yeah, we've got a lot of
work to do. We've actually got our

1165
01:38:17,840 --> 01:38:23,640
plan this year on our twenty four
is our twentieth anniversary, so our playing

1166
01:38:23,680 --> 01:38:26,319
this year is to build thirty one
homes and by the end of September,

1167
01:38:26,359 --> 01:38:29,239
that'll get us to a total of
four hundred. Wow. That is great.

1168
01:38:29,439 --> 01:38:32,159
That is amazing. It is amazing. And Lowis and I went down

1169
01:38:32,199 --> 01:38:36,640
and we saw one of the homes
where they gave it to one of our

1170
01:38:36,760 --> 01:38:42,359
veterans and it's a nice place.
It was beautiful, beautiful. Yeah,

1171
01:38:42,800 --> 01:38:45,439
really nice. Who are your biggest
corporate sponsors? We should throw them some

1172
01:38:46,039 --> 01:38:51,239
praise to our biggest outlet, Bill
time in here too, because I've just

1173
01:38:51,319 --> 01:38:59,119
been talking the whole time. Our
biggest corporate sponsor and probably most prolific across

1174
01:38:59,239 --> 01:39:02,319
the country gets report from them all
over the place is ABC Supply Company.

1175
01:39:03,079 --> 01:39:06,159
Okay, all right, they've been
with for a few years now. And

1176
01:39:06,279 --> 01:39:12,640
then the longest run in corporate sponsor
that we've had is Texas Roadhouse that has

1177
01:39:12,720 --> 01:39:18,319
been with us since the beginning.
Yeah, okay, very cool to them.

1178
01:39:18,920 --> 01:39:23,640
Yeah. On the building suppy side, we have a number of companies

1179
01:39:23,720 --> 01:39:29,960

homes. Certainty Is One provides siding,

1193
01:40:47,239 --> 01:40:53,720

going to grow in the future because

01:40:53,800 --> 01:40:57,680
we tend to get involved in different
things and see different things happening around the

01:42:54,800 --> 01:42:57,640
back to drinking your gurly beer.
Now tell everyone what kind of beer you

1223
01:42:57,760 --> 01:43:01,960
drink. That's how you want to
end. This really has two point four

1224
01:43:02,640 --> 01:43:08,520
alcohol, yes, and fifty five
calories? Okay, and what do you

1225
01:43:08,680 --> 01:43:14,439
call it? Really? Masculine physical
perfection doesn't happen? Can you imagine walking

1226
01:43:14,520 --> 01:43:17,720
into a bar with this guy?
Walking into a sports bar and this is

1227
01:43:17,760 --> 01:43:21,640
what he wanted. Well, he
has to maintain that figure as a male

1228
01:43:21,720 --> 01:43:26,399
model. I do recall saying that
was his second career. He's losing that

1229
01:43:26,520 --> 01:43:29,960
battle like the Germans lost at Mormon
Day. Frankly, Well, he's doing

1230
01:43:29,960 --> 01:43:33,920
a lot more walking since the subway
is out running very well. All right,

1231
01:43:34,000 --> 01:43:38,880
on that note, we could walk
faster than the subways on that night.

1232
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:42,199
Guys, thanks everyone for joining us. We appreciate it, we said

1233
01:43:42,199 --> 01:43:45,079
