19
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:05.959
<v Speaker 2>The notorious, Drew Edwards.

20
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:09.439
<v Speaker 3>Yes, indeed, I will just I will from henceforth to

21
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:14.200
<v Speaker 3>declare that everybody should just announce me as notorious. Because

22
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:20.040
<v Speaker 3>Julia was correcting me before we started recording that notoriety

23
00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:23.120
<v Speaker 3>and fame were not the same thing, and I was saying,

24
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:27.920
<v Speaker 3>I kept saying notoriety, and so I will, I will henceforth.

25
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:30.840
<v Speaker 3>I decided, if I'm not going to be famous, I'll

26
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:35.799
<v Speaker 3>be infamous. So there you go, or notorious notorious.

27
00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:42.439
<v Speaker 1>Yes, my, my, My favorite quotation from Doctor Doom is

28
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:46.120
<v Speaker 1>always in this one where he goes android. Would you

29
00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:49.079
<v Speaker 1>please play back that last soliloquy of mine? I found

30
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:56.200
<v Speaker 1>it particularly inspiring and like I love this character like

31
00:01:56.200 --> 00:01:57.560
<v Speaker 1>that that is that is wonderful.

32
00:01:57.760 --> 00:01:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

33
00:01:58.239 --> 00:02:02.239
<v Speaker 1>And finally, also in Denver, commentary from Julia Gusmond of

34
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Gasmond Immigration of Denver, Chair of the American Immigration Lawyers

35
00:02:06.120 --> 00:02:07.439
<v Speaker 1>Association of Colorado.

36
00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:09.759
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, say hello, I knew she was pregnant. I

37
00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:12.080
<v Speaker 4>was third in my class.

38
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:15.479
<v Speaker 1>What a strange line. My goodness, this is this is

39
00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:19.280
<v Speaker 1>a movie made up entirely of character actors. It's the

40
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:23.560
<v Speaker 1>weirdest thing. And like it's when the when the most,

41
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:27.439
<v Speaker 1>the least character. Actory character actor is David Jansen, because

42
00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:30.479
<v Speaker 1>at least he was the lead of the Sorry of

43
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:34.080
<v Speaker 1>the Fugitive all right. Moon of the Wolf is an

44
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:38.400
<v Speaker 1>American TV movie broadcast on September twenty sixth, nineteen seventy

45
00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:41.439
<v Speaker 1>two as an ABC Movie of the Week. It stars

46
00:02:41.520 --> 00:02:45.680
<v Speaker 1>David Jansen, Barbara Rush of Peyton Place, Jeffrey Lewis of

47
00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:50.719
<v Speaker 1>Salem's Lot, Bradford Dillman. I was what was the He

48
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:54.560
<v Speaker 1>did a Dark Shadows remake for Aaron Spelling. And it's

49
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:57.759
<v Speaker 1>based on a book by Leslie H. Whitten, which I

50
00:02:57.759 --> 00:02:59.680
<v Speaker 1>have ordered from my library because I want to read

51
00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:01.680
<v Speaker 1>this book because it's it's Southern Gothic.

52
00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:02.439
<v Speaker 2>The film is.

53
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:07.120
<v Speaker 3>I am fascinated that although it makes perfect sense for

54
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:10.479
<v Speaker 3>you that you think of her as from Peyton Place,

55
00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:13.840
<v Speaker 3>and yet for me she is from it came from

56
00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:14.599
<v Speaker 3>outer space.

57
00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:17.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh my goodness. All right, Well, I haven't seen it

58
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:19.759
<v Speaker 1>came from outer space since the eighties, so I guess.

59
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:22.680
<v Speaker 2>We may we may have to do an episode on

60
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:23.879
<v Speaker 2>it just for.

61
00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:27.199
<v Speaker 1>That, you know it. Yeah, A lot of this film,

62
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:30.759
<v Speaker 1>this movie was made in Burnside, Louisiana and the downtown

63
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:34.039
<v Speaker 1>of Clinton, Louisiana, and so it's a it's a very

64
00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:38.520
<v Speaker 1>very much location heavy film in Louisiana. The sweat on

65
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:42.199
<v Speaker 1>these actors is real, and I mean I think it

66
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:45.080
<v Speaker 1>lends something to the performances. I'm not even being sarcastic.

67
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:48.639
<v Speaker 1>I mean, seriously, there's something heavy about this. So all right,

68
00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:52.840
<v Speaker 1>let's get her opening thoughts Drew, Julia Tony, and then

69
00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:56.039
<v Speaker 1>off we will go. Drew lay it on me, Moon

70
00:03:56.039 --> 00:03:58.400
<v Speaker 1>of the You were the one who suggested this as

71
00:03:58.400 --> 00:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>one of your suggestions.

72
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:04.280
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I have only seen this movie one time before.

73
00:04:04.960 --> 00:04:08.840
<v Speaker 3>I watched it on tub the other time before because

74
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:13.719
<v Speaker 3>it was a movie I remember seeing pictures from in

75
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:18.240
<v Speaker 3>Fangoria magazine when I was a kid. But surprise, surprise

76
00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:22.800
<v Speaker 3>to those of you who were only born this century,

77
00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:26.800
<v Speaker 3>all of pop culture didn't used to be available at

78
00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:32.120
<v Speaker 3>your fingertips, and sometimes movies were hard to find and

79
00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:35.319
<v Speaker 3>you had to wait to see them. But as a

80
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:40.759
<v Speaker 3>werewolf movie aficionado, I was very very happy to find

81
00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:44.720
<v Speaker 3>finally be able to see it, and it is a

82
00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:50.480
<v Speaker 3>lot of fun. A friend of mine, another comic book

83
00:04:50.519 --> 00:04:57.519
<v Speaker 3>industry gentlemen, recently likened it to a check Culchak episode

84
00:04:57.560 --> 00:05:00.399
<v Speaker 3>minus Culchak, and I think that it is is a

85
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:02.879
<v Speaker 3>very good description of it. I think it would be

86
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:07.639
<v Speaker 3>very easy to imagine Carl kind of dropped into the

87
00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:09.759
<v Speaker 3>action of this movie.

88
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:16.360
<v Speaker 2>But I do love the the whole vibe of it. It.

89
00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:17.759
<v Speaker 2>It has a.

90
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:22.959
<v Speaker 3>Great Southern Gothic feel, and I do think a lot

91
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:27.879
<v Speaker 3>of that is because it was actually shot in Louisiana.

92
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:31.160
<v Speaker 3>You know, Tony and I were actually talking on our

93
00:05:31.160 --> 00:05:36.639
<v Speaker 3>group chat about how this has a very authentic, authentically

94
00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:41.279
<v Speaker 3>Southern feeling that I don't necessarily think you would have

95
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:45.040
<v Speaker 3>in a modern movie. And in fact, you know, the

96
00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:48.279
<v Speaker 3>last Texas Chainsaw massacre movie that was made was filmed

97
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:52.680
<v Speaker 3>in Bulgaria, So contrast this with that and you'll see.

98
00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:52.920
<v Speaker 2>What I mean.

99
00:05:53.639 --> 00:05:59.839
<v Speaker 3>This has an incredibly stellar cast, in considering the fact

100
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:04.639
<v Speaker 3>that it's mostly character driven. It's you know, the werewolf

101
00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:08.199
<v Speaker 3>stuff because it is a TV movie, it's it's kind

102
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:10.800
<v Speaker 3>of backloaded. You really don't get a lot of werewolf

103
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:14.519
<v Speaker 3>action until the very end, and all of the werewolf

104
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:17.839
<v Speaker 3>kill scenes kind of take place of off screen.

105
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:21.120
<v Speaker 2>What kind of sells.

106
00:06:20.839 --> 00:06:23.959
<v Speaker 3>This movie is you get invested in the small town

107
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:30.319
<v Speaker 3>politics of it all, which feel very very real, particularly

108
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:35.160
<v Speaker 3>the class politics of it so I think this.

109
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:36.240
<v Speaker 2>Movie is a lot of fun.

110
00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:40.560
<v Speaker 3>And I think if you are a fan of watching

111
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:45.480
<v Speaker 3>old TV movies, which I know everybody on this podcast is,

112
00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:47.839
<v Speaker 3>and a lot of the people who listen to this

113
00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:50.639
<v Speaker 3>podcast are fans of that as well, I think you'll

114
00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:52.720
<v Speaker 3>get a lot of enjoyment out of it.

115
00:06:52.879 --> 00:06:56.439
<v Speaker 1>Wonderful. Thank you so much, Julia. I don't know if

116
00:06:56.439 --> 00:07:00.240
<v Speaker 1>you're as huge a TV movie fan, although I we

117
00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:02.519
<v Speaker 1>certainly watch a lot of them because I drag you

118
00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:05.600
<v Speaker 1>into it, unless of not being fair, But what are

119
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:06.639
<v Speaker 1>your what are your thoughts?

120
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:10.000
<v Speaker 4>No, I definitely have some all time favorite movies that

121
00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:13.240
<v Speaker 4>were TV movies, like Fatal Vision. Do you remember I

122
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:13.680
<v Speaker 4>loved them?

123
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:14.519
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

124
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:20.360
<v Speaker 4>Absolutely, yeah, Yeah, There's there's so many actually, But anyway,

125
00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:23.319
<v Speaker 4>this was Yeah, this was an ABC wide World of

126
00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:27.240
<v Speaker 4>Mystery UH series movie, and it came out the week

127
00:07:27.319 --> 00:07:29.639
<v Speaker 4>before I turned three years old. So I did not

128
00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:34.680
<v Speaker 4>see it when it came out. You don't know, Yeah,

129
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:37.240
<v Speaker 4>knowing my dad, I might have very well been sitting

130
00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:41.040
<v Speaker 4>on his lap watching it. So and then the other

131
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:42.800
<v Speaker 4>thing I was going to say about it is that, yeah,

132
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:46.040
<v Speaker 4>that the mansion, the plantation house that it's filmed at,

133
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:48.680
<v Speaker 4>it's called the Humus Plantation House. And it was also

134
00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:53.040
<v Speaker 4>in Hush Hush, Sweet, Hush Hush, Sweet Charlotte and Fletcher.

135
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:54.720
<v Speaker 1>Which we did an episode on.

136
00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:57.600
<v Speaker 4>We did not Fletch List, though we haven't done that one.

137
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:02.560
<v Speaker 4>I do you like fleshlift Let's it's interesting. I think

138
00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:03.879
<v Speaker 4>it is, you know, as long as you know it's

139
00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:06.680
<v Speaker 4>TV movie going in, so your expectations aren't, you know,

140
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:11.399
<v Speaker 4>like you know, cinema level. It's a fun film. But

141
00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:14.839
<v Speaker 4>you know, I did find myself a lot trying to

142
00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:17.920
<v Speaker 4>figure out, you know, who's the werewolf? And I my

143
00:08:17.959 --> 00:08:20.839
<v Speaker 4>first guess was the right one, but then I did

144
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:23.120
<v Speaker 4>go through a few others before we actually came around

145
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:24.959
<v Speaker 4>to who it was. But the first, the first character

146
00:08:25.040 --> 00:08:27.199
<v Speaker 4>I guessed was the right guess, the right one. But

147
00:08:27.560 --> 00:08:29.639
<v Speaker 4>it was Yeah, it was fun. I mean, I think

148
00:08:30.199 --> 00:08:31.879
<v Speaker 4>I'm looking forward to talking about it because I kind

149
00:08:31.879 --> 00:08:34.399
<v Speaker 4>of feel like I haven't really thought through my opinions

150
00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:35.960
<v Speaker 4>on it yet, and I think they'll come out as

151
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:37.360
<v Speaker 4>we as we started talking.

152
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:41.039
<v Speaker 1>Wonderful. Okay, thank you very much, Tony. What do you got?

153
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:43.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I hadn't seen this before, but spotting all of

154
00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:46.919
<v Speaker 5>the character actors in it and there's just a bunch

155
00:08:47.559 --> 00:08:50.600
<v Speaker 5>kind of diving back into that realm where a lot

156
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:53.519
<v Speaker 5>of these actors and you know, actresses would appear in

157
00:08:54.200 --> 00:08:57.320
<v Speaker 5>various TV movies. I just that was great. I thought,

158
00:08:57.480 --> 00:08:59.639
<v Speaker 5>I'm yeah, I want to talk more about it. But

159
00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:03.000
<v Speaker 5>there was a time period that just where they did

160
00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:05.399
<v Speaker 5>more on location, and I guess it was probably pretty

161
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:09.279
<v Speaker 5>inexpensive to shoot in Louisiana, you know, and I there's

162
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:12.799
<v Speaker 5>something really it felt really authentic, it felt really lived in.

163
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:15.320
<v Speaker 5>You know, I've passed through the area. I've lived close

164
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:17.639
<v Speaker 5>to the area for a long you know, large parts

165
00:09:17.639 --> 00:09:19.360
<v Speaker 5>of my life. And you know, there's kind of a

166
00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:23.360
<v Speaker 5>blend that's there's like a gradation of East Texas into

167
00:09:23.399 --> 00:09:26.320
<v Speaker 5>Louisiana and then back into Mississippi. There's kind of the

168
00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:29.279
<v Speaker 5>borders of all that into Louisiana also kind of have

169
00:09:29.399 --> 00:09:32.519
<v Speaker 5>the same similar feel and the politics are very similar

170
00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:34.200
<v Speaker 5>that it's the Deep South.

171
00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:34.639
<v Speaker 1>You could.

172
00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:37.159
<v Speaker 5>I was saying also, like it's a little bit intense,

173
00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:38.919
<v Speaker 5>and I didn't want to watch another intense movie, but

174
00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:42.000
<v Speaker 5>I would. I would pair this up with maybe Southern Comfort, uh,

175
00:09:42.200 --> 00:09:44.360
<v Speaker 5>you know, which is also you know, really good film

176
00:09:44.840 --> 00:09:49.000
<v Speaker 5>as far as flavor and vibe. But yeah, I in

177
00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:50.759
<v Speaker 5>fact that you know, I kept the more we were

178
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:53.320
<v Speaker 5>talking about it. I also I wonder, you know, you

179
00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:58.600
<v Speaker 5>could just as easily make a Dark Shadows, a deep southern,

180
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:02.919
<v Speaker 5>deep Southern Gothic Dark Shadows, uh, you know, soap opera

181
00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:05.240
<v Speaker 5>out of this town or a town similar to it,

182
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:05.840
<v Speaker 5>and I.

183
00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:06.360
<v Speaker 1>Would watch that.

184
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:09.840
<v Speaker 5>Yes, I think the closest we had we got is

185
00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:12.360
<v Speaker 5>like what True Blood, right, like that in Louisiana. But

186
00:10:12.679 --> 00:10:15.759
<v Speaker 5>this has such a different flavor. And I also want

187
00:10:15.799 --> 00:10:18.759
<v Speaker 5>to talk about that because and you're describing.

188
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:20.720
<v Speaker 1>In the heat of the night with werewolves really.

189
00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:23.519
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, sort of yeah, but like you know, supernatural, Like

190
00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:26.240
<v Speaker 5>if you did it like Dark Shadows, it would be all.

191
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:27.200
<v Speaker 1>Kinds of supernatural.

192
00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:30.159
<v Speaker 5>Yes, and yes, I would totally watch that.

193
00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:30.840
<v Speaker 1>That would be good.

194
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:34.639
<v Speaker 5>But I I enjoyed this movie. But I found myself

195
00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:40.120
<v Speaker 5>really the cultural aspects of it all and all of

196
00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:44.600
<v Speaker 5>the again, the class system that's here and how the

197
00:10:45.159 --> 00:10:49.320
<v Speaker 5>relationships are, like you know, from from the doctor who's

198
00:10:49.399 --> 00:10:51.639
<v Speaker 5>kind of too good to be there but he stuck there,

199
00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:53.879
<v Speaker 5>to just the you know, the people living in the

200
00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:55.960
<v Speaker 5>swamp and then there's people living in town, and then

201
00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:59.559
<v Speaker 5>the all that class system. Stuff is just perfect, and

202
00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:02.639
<v Speaker 5>I want to talk more about that as we go along.

203
00:11:02.759 --> 00:11:07.200
<v Speaker 5>But I really enjoyed this for a lot of reasons. Yes,

204
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:10.559
<v Speaker 5>it's a lower budget affair by nature, but you know,

205
00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:13.159
<v Speaker 5>I'd stack it against a lot, like there's a lot

206
00:11:13.200 --> 00:11:17.000
<v Speaker 5>worse movies than to spend your time on. And I

207
00:11:17.039 --> 00:11:19.519
<v Speaker 5>was kind of drawn into it. And the mystery is cool,

208
00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:22.679
<v Speaker 5>like Julia said, like I wonder like like the fact

209
00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:25.039
<v Speaker 5>that was you know ABC mystery movie. That's pretty good

210
00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:26.879
<v Speaker 5>and somebody took a chance instead of doing like a

211
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:29.639
<v Speaker 5>traditional mystery. They're like, Okay, so this this week's mystery

212
00:11:29.679 --> 00:11:33.320
<v Speaker 5>movie is were Wolf. Yeah, pretty cool. I gotta say.

213
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:35.840
<v Speaker 1>We were talking to John Logan a couple of weeks ago,

214
00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:39.919
<v Speaker 1>a couple of episodes ago, and I said something about

215
00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:43.039
<v Speaker 1>Royal Dano Like, what's that Royal Dano were wolf movie?

216
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:44.679
<v Speaker 1>He goes, you mean Moon of the Wolf.

217
00:11:44.840 --> 00:11:50.360
<v Speaker 5>Like, yeah, this is just so many good actors.

218
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:55.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, I want to go straight into the topics,

219
00:11:55.279 --> 00:11:58.240
<v Speaker 1>but the only thing I'll say is that this is

220
00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:00.399
<v Speaker 1>this is a really well made film, and you raised

221
00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:03.919
<v Speaker 1>a really interesting issue, like there's a TV budget, right,

222
00:12:04.279 --> 00:12:06.360
<v Speaker 1>but if you're making a TV movie at least in

223
00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:08.879
<v Speaker 1>nineteen seventy two. If you're making a TV movie and

224
00:12:08.919 --> 00:12:12.320
<v Speaker 1>you know what your limitations are, you can film around

225
00:12:12.360 --> 00:12:14.879
<v Speaker 1>it so that you wind up with something that looks

226
00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:19.120
<v Speaker 1>like a movie. You know, that looks basically like you

227
00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:22.360
<v Speaker 1>know it because it's a procedural and a lot of

228
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:25.080
<v Speaker 1>it is the sheriff trying to solve this mystery. You

229
00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:27.240
<v Speaker 1>don't have to go crazy, you know. The toughest thing

230
00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:29.600
<v Speaker 1>they're going to deal with is, of course the werewolf effects.

231
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:33.519
<v Speaker 1>But other than that, you know, it's you know, there

232
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:36.159
<v Speaker 1>are some really great like Salem's Lot, of course, was

233
00:12:36.200 --> 00:12:40.080
<v Speaker 1>a TV film, you know, and yeah, I thought this

234
00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:43.519
<v Speaker 1>was fantastic. Okay, the first thing I'd like to get

235
00:12:43.519 --> 00:12:45.759
<v Speaker 1>into I want to talk about the cast, but I

236
00:12:45.759 --> 00:12:48.879
<v Speaker 1>think first we should talk about Southern Gothic and the

237
00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:51.960
<v Speaker 1>world of this film. So for the listener, if you

238
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:53.679
<v Speaker 1>want to see a Moon of the Wolf, it is

239
00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:56.399
<v Speaker 1>free lots of services, so you can see it on TV.

240
00:12:57.000 --> 00:12:59.840
<v Speaker 1>If you have a subscription to YouTube like just You

241
00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:02.000
<v Speaker 1>two Premium, then you can watch it on YouTube and

242
00:13:02.039 --> 00:13:04.080
<v Speaker 1>there's no ads, or you can watch it on two

243
00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:06.039
<v Speaker 1>B it has ads. But the point is there's lots

244
00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:07.559
<v Speaker 1>of places where you can see this movie.

245
00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:10.279
<v Speaker 5>Did you watch it on YouTube or TV?

246
00:13:10.519 --> 00:13:11.320
<v Speaker 1>I saw it on YouTube?

247
00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:14.639
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, oh boy boy? Is it macro blocked it? It

248
00:13:14.679 --> 00:13:16.799
<v Speaker 5>doesn't look good at close to the end on TV.

249
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:19.759
<v Speaker 1>The one that I saw it didn't look that bad.

250
00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:23.600
<v Speaker 1>But but there might be also multiple versions of it uploaded,

251
00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:26.320
<v Speaker 1>so who knows. No.

252
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:27.080
<v Speaker 2>On t B.

253
00:13:27.480 --> 00:13:30.679
<v Speaker 5>On t B, the print was, I don't think it's

254
00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:32.960
<v Speaker 5>my it was my connection. It was no, I'm sure

255
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:37.120
<v Speaker 5>you're rough. I mean, it's still look good, but like

256
00:13:37.639 --> 00:13:38.600
<v Speaker 5>that's why I was curious.

257
00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:42.240
<v Speaker 1>You might have bet on YouTube. Yeah, but all right,

258
00:13:42.799 --> 00:13:46.159
<v Speaker 1>so the Southern Gothic thing as a concept, and we

259
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:48.919
<v Speaker 1>don't actually get a lot of Southern Gothic stories anymore.

260
00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:52.480
<v Speaker 1>And Drew pointed out this movie really takes advantage of

261
00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:55.639
<v Speaker 1>shooting in a southern count But the whole Southern Gothic

262
00:13:55.799 --> 00:13:59.039
<v Speaker 1>thing is you're living in a world that is It's

263
00:13:59.240 --> 00:14:02.960
<v Speaker 1>like the lumpiness of the of the atmosphere is pulling

264
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:07.720
<v Speaker 1>the world apart. So everything's old, everything is sweaty, every

265
00:14:07.919 --> 00:14:12.559
<v Speaker 1>and and the the things that define it are usually

266
00:14:12.960 --> 00:14:19.799
<v Speaker 1>family secrets, family shame, uh, severe gradations in the community,

267
00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:23.360
<v Speaker 1>like Tony, you were pointing out all the different layers,

268
00:14:23.480 --> 00:14:25.759
<v Speaker 1>like all the layers, because you got the rich guy

269
00:14:25.879 --> 00:14:29.360
<v Speaker 1>who lives with his rich sister in the plantation, and

270
00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:33.080
<v Speaker 1>then you've got you know, middle class people and like

271
00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:37.159
<v Speaker 1>the doctor, and then you've got civil servants like the sheriff,

272
00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:40.519
<v Speaker 1>and then you've got like hillbillies, you know, in in

273
00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:43.679
<v Speaker 1>the in the swamp, you got swamp people and they

274
00:14:43.720 --> 00:14:47.080
<v Speaker 1>all know one another, and they all move amongst one another,

275
00:14:47.440 --> 00:14:50.440
<v Speaker 1>and it's just interesting watching. Like I would say, Tony

276
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:54.679
<v Speaker 1>that we know what those gradations are. The movie shows

277
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:58.000
<v Speaker 1>them without even bothering bothering to explain them generally, you know,

278
00:14:58.159 --> 00:14:59.679
<v Speaker 1>because it's just part of the atmosphere.

279
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:00.399
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

280
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:05.720
<v Speaker 5>You know Quaudia McNeil, who plays what's her Sarah, Like

281
00:15:06.679 --> 00:15:09.759
<v Speaker 5>you know she's lives adjacent and you know she talks

282
00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:12.519
<v Speaker 5>about like, you know, my grandfather worked for your you know,

283
00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:19.039
<v Speaker 5>like's and you know they're with the hill abilities. But

284
00:15:19.159 --> 00:15:22.559
<v Speaker 5>like how that all plays out, how race relations work

285
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:26.000
<v Speaker 5>and everything, like every there's all this well there and

286
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:27.360
<v Speaker 5>because I don't.

287
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:33.559
<v Speaker 3>Because this is Louisiana, there's there's another cultural layer because

288
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:37.399
<v Speaker 3>they they call the area and the swamp where all

289
00:15:37.399 --> 00:15:40.480
<v Speaker 3>the poor people live french Town because that's where all

290
00:15:40.600 --> 00:15:48.200
<v Speaker 3>exactly Cajun people live. And you know that's while you know,

291
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:51.480
<v Speaker 3>I grew up in Texas, not Louisiana. You know, there

292
00:15:51.559 --> 00:15:55.759
<v Speaker 3>definitely was cultural and class divides like that.

293
00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:58.399
<v Speaker 5>And well the further you go to East Texas, the

294
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:02.639
<v Speaker 5>more you get that absolutely absolutely.

295
00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:02.559
<v Speaker 2>And.

296
00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:07.080
<v Speaker 3>The the you know, the the other thing that I

297
00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:12.600
<v Speaker 3>think is interesting about setting this in in this particular

298
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:17.480
<v Speaker 3>because with were wolves, you know, in the rural South,

299
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:21.440
<v Speaker 3>in this particular region of the United States, like there

300
00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:24.080
<v Speaker 3>is you know, I almost wish that the movie could

301
00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:26.080
<v Speaker 3>have spent a little bit more time on it. But

302
00:16:26.159 --> 00:16:31.559
<v Speaker 3>there's very specific were wolf mythology of the rugaroo, which

303
00:16:31.600 --> 00:16:35.120
<v Speaker 3>is like a swamp were wolf or a sugarcane were wolf.

304
00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:38.639
<v Speaker 5>And not to be confused with the rugaroo with an X,

305
00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:42.080
<v Speaker 5>which is when you had flour and butter and make

306
00:16:42.120 --> 00:16:45.519
<v Speaker 5>a creamier are no talking about rude?

307
00:16:47.759 --> 00:16:50.279
<v Speaker 2>I got, I understood what you were saying.

308
00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:57.440
<v Speaker 3>It was anyway, well, you know, the the you know,

309
00:16:57.519 --> 00:17:00.519
<v Speaker 3>they they don't deal with it too much. I mean,

310
00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:03.799
<v Speaker 3>they have the bit about sulfur in the movie, which is,

311
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:08.160
<v Speaker 3>you know, again it's very specific to this particular type

312
00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:12.480
<v Speaker 3>of were wolf mythology, which is like something that was

313
00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:16.240
<v Speaker 3>imported from from both you know, you have thelu Guru,

314
00:17:16.480 --> 00:17:20.359
<v Speaker 3>which is you know, imported from from France. And then

315
00:17:20.519 --> 00:17:23.359
<v Speaker 3>of course there were were German immigrants who brought their

316
00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:28.160
<v Speaker 3>own werewolf mythology and this all met in you know,

317
00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:32.519
<v Speaker 3>Louisiana and Mississippi in East Texas and became this own

318
00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:35.720
<v Speaker 3>specific you know, I hate to say.

319
00:17:35.480 --> 00:17:41.519
<v Speaker 2>This, but American were wolf And I lied. I didn't

320
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:42.480
<v Speaker 2>hate saying that at all.

321
00:17:43.160 --> 00:17:48.440
<v Speaker 3>And you know, it's it's not something we see represented

322
00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:52.160
<v Speaker 3>in pop culture, but it still has a lot of

323
00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:55.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, in in you know, folklore today and there's

324
00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:59.000
<v Speaker 3>even in in I forget the town in Louisiana, but

325
00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:03.119
<v Speaker 3>there's even particular town in Louisiana and Louisiana that every

326
00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:05.720
<v Speaker 3>October has a rugaroo festival.

327
00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:07.839
<v Speaker 2>So what would you call.

328
00:18:08.119 --> 00:18:09.759
<v Speaker 4>An American werewolf in Paris?

329
00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:11.200
<v Speaker 2>Uh?

330
00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:13.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what I mean, what's what?

331
00:18:13.839 --> 00:18:15.759
<v Speaker 2>Uh? What would I call it?

332
00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:20.039
<v Speaker 4>Would it be a rugaroo or or garoo?

333
00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:26.519
<v Speaker 3>Or I think I think that it's just a werewolf

334
00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:27.160
<v Speaker 3>at that point?

335
00:18:28.559 --> 00:18:32.559
<v Speaker 2>What what? Wow? Now my ice a crusted.

336
00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:39.119
<v Speaker 3>I but you know, the context of the Southern gothic thing.

337
00:18:39.880 --> 00:18:44.519
<v Speaker 3>I think that added layer of sort of folk horror

338
00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:46.839
<v Speaker 3>kind of adds to this.

339
00:18:47.200 --> 00:18:47.400
<v Speaker 2>Well.

340
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:50.559
<v Speaker 5>Also you have the guy who's you know, in his deathbed,

341
00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:53.759
<v Speaker 5>who's has the gap, and they just that's just part

342
00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:57.000
<v Speaker 5>of like everybody's you know, if you if you're around

343
00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:01.400
<v Speaker 5>enough people and especially uh you know, the lower class,

344
00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:03.440
<v Speaker 5>you go or somebody will be like, oh, yeah, well

345
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:05.680
<v Speaker 5>you have an aunt who has the gift, or I

346
00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:08.559
<v Speaker 5>have a my grandfather would say, you know, like the

347
00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:12.599
<v Speaker 5>tales that add to that folk horror. That's part of this.

348
00:19:12.759 --> 00:19:15.319
<v Speaker 5>He knows things that other people don't. They're like he

349
00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:17.480
<v Speaker 5>just knows, like what do you mean? And the share

350
00:19:17.559 --> 00:19:19.319
<v Speaker 5>kind of doesn't want to believe it, but also he

351
00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:21.559
<v Speaker 5>knows like yeah, I've dealt with that, you know, like

352
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:24.880
<v Speaker 5>how that all those interactions are really great and adds

353
00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:28.519
<v Speaker 5>so the really grounds it in that Deep South folk

354
00:19:28.519 --> 00:19:31.519
<v Speaker 5>horror tradition and that I think that stuff is awesome too.

355
00:19:32.079 --> 00:19:36.920
<v Speaker 1>The it's I want to read this book because it

356
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:40.720
<v Speaker 1>just strikes me has it's so neat that they decided

357
00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:44.039
<v Speaker 1>to set it here, because it just it's such a

358
00:19:44.079 --> 00:19:46.400
<v Speaker 1>cliche to say that the setting is almost a character.

359
00:19:46.480 --> 00:19:48.559
<v Speaker 1>But just think about it if you had set this

360
00:19:48.759 --> 00:19:51.839
<v Speaker 1>in like downtown Toronto or something, you know, and so

361
00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:55.200
<v Speaker 1>you got these I don't know, you've got the rich

362
00:19:55.240 --> 00:19:57.640
<v Speaker 1>couple and a bunch of people of rich siblings and

363
00:19:57.640 --> 00:19:59.480
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of people who are not rich. It just

364
00:19:59.519 --> 00:20:02.200
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't have the flavor that it does, you know. And

365
00:20:02.440 --> 00:20:03.960
<v Speaker 1>same thing if you had put it in the French

366
00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Quarter instead, you know, being in these backwards and in

367
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:09.279
<v Speaker 1>these you know, if you look at the house, the

368
00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:13.519
<v Speaker 1>buildings outside, the old man, you know his where he's convalescing,

369
00:20:13.920 --> 00:20:17.079
<v Speaker 1>those buildings are falling down, and it's amazing looking, you know,

370
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:19.359
<v Speaker 1>it really real place.

371
00:20:19.559 --> 00:20:25.440
<v Speaker 3>I also think the relationships in this, you know, follow

372
00:20:26.119 --> 00:20:31.640
<v Speaker 3>that certain Southern Gothic tradition and it adds because like, really,

373
00:20:31.799 --> 00:20:36.200
<v Speaker 3>if you were to just do this as a random

374
00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:39.440
<v Speaker 3>werewolf movie, it would feel quite generic.

375
00:20:39.640 --> 00:20:41.880
<v Speaker 2>So what you're saying about.

376
00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:46.960
<v Speaker 3>The the place making it giving it character.

377
00:20:47.079 --> 00:20:48.799
<v Speaker 2>Like I really love.

378
00:20:49.079 --> 00:20:53.279
<v Speaker 3>I talked about this with Tony before we started recording,

379
00:20:53.359 --> 00:20:55.680
<v Speaker 3>but one of the things I love most in this

380
00:20:55.839 --> 00:21:01.039
<v Speaker 3>movie is when the cop, the sheriff, the sheriff, yeah,

381
00:21:01.359 --> 00:21:05.119
<v Speaker 3>goes the visit the the you know, the rich, the

382
00:21:05.240 --> 00:21:09.279
<v Speaker 3>rich gentleman and the Southern gentleman and his sister and

383
00:21:09.599 --> 00:21:14.200
<v Speaker 3>in in you know, their home, and the sister reveals

384
00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:16.839
<v Speaker 3>that she used to have a crush on on the

385
00:21:16.880 --> 00:21:19.359
<v Speaker 3>sheriff when they were in junior high. And then he said, oh, well,

386
00:21:19.400 --> 00:21:21.640
<v Speaker 3>I had a crush on you too, And then after

387
00:21:21.759 --> 00:21:24.839
<v Speaker 3>she goes back in the si back inside, in the

388
00:21:24.880 --> 00:21:31.839
<v Speaker 3>most genteel Southern way possible, he says, essentially, no, I

389
00:21:31.880 --> 00:21:35.279
<v Speaker 3>am not letting my sister, who is from a good family,

390
00:21:35.480 --> 00:21:41.039
<v Speaker 3>data policeman, and that that is so, you know, that

391
00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:45.279
<v Speaker 3>sort of upper crusty southernness, like, oh no, you have

392
00:21:45.359 --> 00:21:48.960
<v Speaker 3>to be with somebody from a good family. Yeah, you know,

393
00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:52.440
<v Speaker 3>it doesn't matter that you're the top cop of this town.

394
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:58.680
<v Speaker 2>Like that's not good enough. You could see you.

395
00:21:58.640 --> 00:22:01.440
<v Speaker 4>Could see the disdain on his face immediately. At first

396
00:22:01.480 --> 00:22:04.440
<v Speaker 4>I didn't know there was there were I didn't know

397
00:22:04.440 --> 00:22:06.559
<v Speaker 4>they were siblings. I was like, is this her husband,

398
00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:08.759
<v Speaker 4>and she's just like flirting in front of him, and

399
00:22:08.839 --> 00:22:10.000
<v Speaker 4>I was like, oh no, it's the brother.

400
00:22:10.079 --> 00:22:12.920
<v Speaker 1>He just really is disgusted by the idea.

401
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:15.160
<v Speaker 2>You're the help. You're the help. My sister is not

402
00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:16.160
<v Speaker 2>going to date the help.

403
00:22:16.319 --> 00:22:20.200
<v Speaker 3>And that still goes on, like if you were to

404
00:22:20.279 --> 00:22:22.319
<v Speaker 3>be if you were to go to a small southern

405
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:28.480
<v Speaker 3>town right now, that pattern of behavior still exists, and

406
00:22:28.720 --> 00:22:32.680
<v Speaker 3>there's this very polite way of telling someone to fuck

407
00:22:32.759 --> 00:22:38.039
<v Speaker 3>off without actually saying fuck off, and that actor nails

408
00:22:38.079 --> 00:22:40.680
<v Speaker 3>it like it's it's so let's talk.

409
00:22:40.559 --> 00:22:45.599
<v Speaker 4>About Yeah that is it's the Blessed, It's the Blessed,

410
00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:46.359
<v Speaker 4>bless his heart.

411
00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:53.039
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Yeah, there's so much really great dialogue that this

412
00:22:53.119 --> 00:22:56.400
<v Speaker 5>is something I'm you know, sorry to know on this

413
00:22:56.440 --> 00:22:59.680
<v Speaker 5>a little bit longer, Jason, But I don't know. I mean,

414
00:22:59.720 --> 00:23:02.559
<v Speaker 5>we're we're what fifty years out from this is the.

415
00:23:02.519 --> 00:23:04.759
<v Speaker 1>Seventies, Yeah, this nineteen seventy two.

416
00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:08.480
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, so we're we're you know, but it's it's

417
00:23:08.599 --> 00:23:12.759
<v Speaker 5>more rare now in my opinion, that you see that

418
00:23:13.119 --> 00:23:15.279
<v Speaker 5>you have dialogue that's written. And I don't know if

419
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:19.519
<v Speaker 5>it's just people like maybe the writer knew either ay

420
00:23:19.680 --> 00:23:22.599
<v Speaker 5>either the really good writers, or they knew the area

421
00:23:22.799 --> 00:23:24.559
<v Speaker 5>in a way, you know, like they knew how to

422
00:23:24.599 --> 00:23:27.319
<v Speaker 5>build this. And I don't know if it's just you

423
00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:29.920
<v Speaker 5>get a bunch of people who aren't as familiar and

424
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:32.440
<v Speaker 5>maybe don't know, like it's like if you tried to

425
00:23:32.480 --> 00:23:35.279
<v Speaker 5>ape Stephen King, you're gonna have a hard time unless

426
00:23:35.319 --> 00:23:38.079
<v Speaker 5>you kind of know that. But I was really struck

427
00:23:38.160 --> 00:23:41.279
<v Speaker 5>by all of those layers that Drew's been talking about.

428
00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:44.319
<v Speaker 5>But also there there was a lot there's there was

429
00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:46.759
<v Speaker 5>a lot more of this in the seventies and into

430
00:23:46.839 --> 00:23:51.720
<v Speaker 5>the eighties. And even though it's done kind of hamp bistedly,

431
00:23:51.839 --> 00:23:53.480
<v Speaker 5>like there's a even if you go with like the

432
00:23:53.559 --> 00:23:56.519
<v Speaker 5>dukes of Hazard Route, there's still like a touch of

433
00:23:56.559 --> 00:23:57.880
<v Speaker 5>the flavor that's still.

434
00:23:57.640 --> 00:23:59.400
<v Speaker 2>There, you know that.

435
00:23:59.480 --> 00:24:01.599
<v Speaker 5>I mean, it's hazard, but it's still had. There's there's

436
00:24:01.640 --> 00:24:04.039
<v Speaker 5>stuff there that that touches in the Deep South in

437
00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:06.839
<v Speaker 5>a way that I think modern stuff that I've seen

438
00:24:06.920 --> 00:24:10.200
<v Speaker 5>is kind of set in Louisiana or around there doesn't

439
00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:13.440
<v Speaker 5>feel as authentic. And I'm really, I still really curious

440
00:24:13.480 --> 00:24:17.039
<v Speaker 5>what that is, Like, is it familiarity that was there before?

441
00:24:17.240 --> 00:24:19.839
<v Speaker 5>Is it just you know, being steeped in that, Like

442
00:24:20.359 --> 00:24:23.440
<v Speaker 5>I'm unsure, But all the dialogue that takes place in

443
00:24:23.480 --> 00:24:26.400
<v Speaker 5>the and the layers that are there really work, And

444
00:24:26.440 --> 00:24:28.559
<v Speaker 5>then you know, I and I really like actually their

445
00:24:28.599 --> 00:24:31.440
<v Speaker 5>interaction was just really charming. That's why I thought about

446
00:24:31.480 --> 00:24:34.839
<v Speaker 5>the soap opera aspect. Yes, you know, they're kind of

447
00:24:34.839 --> 00:24:37.160
<v Speaker 5>going back and forth, and oh, you know, I wish

448
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:38.720
<v Speaker 5>I would have known that you had a crush. But

449
00:24:38.920 --> 00:24:42.079
<v Speaker 5>now that there's there's a lot there, like, I think

450
00:24:42.119 --> 00:24:45.039
<v Speaker 5>that elevates it beyond kind of like there's a bunch

451
00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:46.839
<v Speaker 5>that's not when you when you say.

452
00:24:46.599 --> 00:24:47.519
<v Speaker 2>Oh, movie of the week.

453
00:24:47.799 --> 00:24:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I think.

454
00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:52.119
<v Speaker 5>There's a there's a lot of it's multi layered in

455
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:53.799
<v Speaker 5>a way that you wouldn't expect when you when you

456
00:24:53.880 --> 00:24:56.160
<v Speaker 5>hear movie of the week as a as a term

457
00:24:56.200 --> 00:24:56.480
<v Speaker 5>for this.

458
00:24:56.559 --> 00:24:59.200
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I agree with that. I mean, you're right because

459
00:24:59.200 --> 00:25:01.079
<v Speaker 1>a lot of times it will be sort of generic

460
00:25:01.119 --> 00:25:03.880
<v Speaker 1>because it's just taking place in and around, in and

461
00:25:03.920 --> 00:25:06.200
<v Speaker 1>around a city like Los Angeles or what have you.

462
00:25:06.240 --> 00:25:09.839
<v Speaker 1>Whereas this, yes, this knows a lot about that world.

463
00:25:09.880 --> 00:25:11.960
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, to answer your question about you know,

464
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:15.400
<v Speaker 1>how familiar is the writer? So I don't know much

465
00:25:15.400 --> 00:25:18.160
<v Speaker 1>about Leslie H. Whitten. He's the one who wrote the book.

466
00:25:18.200 --> 00:25:22.400
<v Speaker 1>But the director is Daniel Petrie. Now he is not

467
00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:24.400
<v Speaker 1>part of this world at all. He was a Canadian

468
00:25:24.960 --> 00:25:27.440
<v Speaker 1>and he came to the United States and taught at

469
00:25:27.440 --> 00:25:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Northwestern and directed Raisin in the Sun, which by the way,

470
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:33.880
<v Speaker 1>starred Claudia McNeil, so he brings her over from having

471
00:25:33.880 --> 00:25:35.759
<v Speaker 1>directed Raisin the Sun, which I think is awesome.

472
00:25:36.839 --> 00:25:39.400
<v Speaker 5>I mean that might be part of the foundation for it,

473
00:25:39.480 --> 00:25:40.160
<v Speaker 5>right because.

474
00:25:39.920 --> 00:25:43.599
<v Speaker 1>It's, yeah, he's aware of how to play all these

475
00:25:43.720 --> 00:25:46.559
<v Speaker 1>characters from different parts of life off of one another.

476
00:25:46.640 --> 00:25:50.559
<v Speaker 1>For sure. I think we can linger on all of

477
00:25:50.599 --> 00:25:52.880
<v Speaker 1>that because I want to talk about some of these

478
00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:57.319
<v Speaker 1>actors in particular, because we'll get to Bradford Dillman, but

479
00:25:57.759 --> 00:26:02.160
<v Speaker 1>David Jansen. I wish I understood how people thought about

480
00:26:02.200 --> 00:26:04.960
<v Speaker 1>David Jansen, because David Jansen is the star of this movie,

481
00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:07.720
<v Speaker 1>and he's the one with the romantic storyline, and he's

482
00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:10.640
<v Speaker 1>the one who's investigating, and yet with the hair that

483
00:26:10.680 --> 00:26:14.079
<v Speaker 1>he has and the sideburns and the paunch and the

484
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:18.480
<v Speaker 1>slumping and the grumbling, I'm always liked, did anybody go

485
00:26:18.720 --> 00:26:22.519
<v Speaker 1>David Janssen sex god like that? It was there was?

486
00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:25.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, have things changed so much since the seventies

487
00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:28.160
<v Speaker 1>that back then David Jansen was a heart throb or

488
00:26:28.279 --> 00:26:30.640
<v Speaker 1>was always just a character actor that people just that

489
00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:32.640
<v Speaker 1>was beloved of people, You know what I mean?

490
00:26:33.079 --> 00:26:36.480
<v Speaker 4>Both things can be true because there's plenty of character

491
00:26:36.559 --> 00:26:39.720
<v Speaker 4>actors that a lot of people find really attractive. Like

492
00:26:39.759 --> 00:26:42.400
<v Speaker 4>there's a lot of movies where Yeah, I mean, I

493
00:26:42.440 --> 00:26:45.240
<v Speaker 4>was telling I was joking when we were leaving we

494
00:26:45.319 --> 00:26:47.960
<v Speaker 4>went to see Weapons last night. I was joking seeing

495
00:26:47.960 --> 00:26:50.680
<v Speaker 4>all the posters that Pedro Pascal is on and by

496
00:26:50.720 --> 00:26:53.240
<v Speaker 4>the way, he was meant to be in Weapons also,

497
00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:58.240
<v Speaker 4>But I was joking that it's like that Jonathan episode

498
00:26:58.240 --> 00:27:00.880
<v Speaker 4>of Buffy where the reality he has shifted to the

499
00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:02.599
<v Speaker 4>Jonathan's the center of the universe, and I'm like, it's

500
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:08.160
<v Speaker 4>Pedro Pascal. Pedro Pascal is not traditionally just hot, but

501
00:27:08.279 --> 00:27:11.119
<v Speaker 4>he's very sexy because of how he is, you know,

502
00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:14.079
<v Speaker 4>so he's become this heart. But if you were to

503
00:27:14.079 --> 00:27:16.440
<v Speaker 4>look at a picture of Pedro Pascal and a picture

504
00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:18.680
<v Speaker 4>of Chris Almans and Chris Hemsworth, you'd be like, Okay,

505
00:27:18.680 --> 00:27:21.359
<v Speaker 4>I get those two, but that guy really like how

506
00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:22.359
<v Speaker 4>he was like the center of.

507
00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:24.000
<v Speaker 2>The universe in twenty twenty five.

508
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:26.720
<v Speaker 4>So, I mean, I feel like that's kind of what

509
00:27:26.799 --> 00:27:27.039
<v Speaker 4>it is.

510
00:27:27.079 --> 00:27:31.599
<v Speaker 3>I don't Jamie thinks he's he's really hot, so I

511
00:27:31.599 --> 00:27:33.039
<v Speaker 3>I'll have to ask about it.

512
00:27:33.119 --> 00:27:35.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, everybody thinks he's hot, but I don't think that

513
00:27:35.920 --> 00:27:37.759
<v Speaker 4>if you just looked at a picture of him.

514
00:27:38.079 --> 00:27:40.200
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I think he's better looking than I think

515
00:27:40.200 --> 00:27:42.799
<v Speaker 3>he's better looking than me, but that doesn't say anything.

516
00:27:42.839 --> 00:27:43.960
<v Speaker 2>He's also a movie star.

517
00:27:44.759 --> 00:27:46.160
<v Speaker 4>I will I will not comment on this.

518
00:27:46.240 --> 00:27:48.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm just saying that I'm not asking you too. That

519
00:27:48.720 --> 00:27:49.119
<v Speaker 2>would be.

520
00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:56.000
<v Speaker 4>Awkward, Pascal for coming next to like the traditional you know,

521
00:27:56.240 --> 00:27:57.359
<v Speaker 4>just like hot guy.

522
00:27:57.720 --> 00:27:59.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that you would recognize.

523
00:27:59.119 --> 00:28:03.559
<v Speaker 3>And the super in the sphere of superhero movies. I

524
00:28:03.559 --> 00:28:08.480
<v Speaker 3>will say this, it does help that he is playing

525
00:28:08.599 --> 00:28:13.880
<v Speaker 3>a character that's his biggest muscle is his brain, like

526
00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:17.039
<v Speaker 3>he's not supposed to be He's not supposed to be

527
00:28:17.119 --> 00:28:20.680
<v Speaker 3>thor I think Jami actually just.

528
00:28:20.640 --> 00:28:23.359
<v Speaker 2>Walked Jimmy actually, Jimmy actually just walked in here, hold

529
00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:25.720
<v Speaker 2>on here. Never mind.

530
00:28:25.759 --> 00:28:29.799
<v Speaker 1>Then, I don't necessarily want us to go off on

531
00:28:29.880 --> 00:28:33.640
<v Speaker 1>a pedro Pascal hunt. I'm curious about David Janssen.

532
00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:36.880
<v Speaker 5>So Jason, I think to your point, though, I think

533
00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:42.039
<v Speaker 5>that also in this era, the heart robby kind of actors,

534
00:28:42.119 --> 00:28:44.799
<v Speaker 5>or the actors who were considered attractive, I think they

535
00:28:44.799 --> 00:28:48.640
<v Speaker 5>did also skew older. When you think of TV like

536
00:28:48.720 --> 00:28:51.079
<v Speaker 5>look at look at what's out right? Like you're like

537
00:28:51.359 --> 00:28:55.000
<v Speaker 5>heart heart and you know whatever, like you name it.

538
00:28:55.039 --> 00:28:57.759
<v Speaker 5>There's a bunch of older actors and acts.

539
00:28:57.839 --> 00:28:59.960
<v Speaker 1>That's a good point because Darren McGavin also is kind

540
00:28:59.960 --> 00:29:01.200
<v Speaker 1>of a krusty you know.

541
00:29:01.960 --> 00:29:04.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but like I just I just pulled one.

542
00:29:04.200 --> 00:29:07.440
<v Speaker 3>Out, like hold hold the phone, like whatever you think

543
00:29:07.480 --> 00:29:11.759
<v Speaker 3>about this Sky Jason, he's better looking than Darren McGavin.

544
00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:14.880
<v Speaker 1>I love David Jensen, don't get me wrong. And I

545
00:29:14.920 --> 00:29:17.799
<v Speaker 1>loved The Fugitive by the way, David Jensen not for nothing,

546
00:29:17.960 --> 00:29:21.279
<v Speaker 1>forty one years old in this movie forty one or

547
00:29:21.599 --> 00:29:22.160
<v Speaker 1>that one.

548
00:29:23.480 --> 00:29:26.119
<v Speaker 5>You're more so at the same time, you have like

549
00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:28.160
<v Speaker 5>so you have like the other end of the spectrum,

550
00:29:28.319 --> 00:29:31.440
<v Speaker 5>be like hardy boys, right. Yeah, But I would say

551
00:29:31.480 --> 00:29:35.119
<v Speaker 5>that in general during this time period, you do have

552
00:29:35.160 --> 00:29:38.440
<v Speaker 5>a lot of older actors who are considered the heart

553
00:29:38.519 --> 00:29:41.440
<v Speaker 5>props and less and you and it's kind of like,

554
00:29:41.599 --> 00:29:44.039
<v Speaker 5>now we kind of reached this like oh, well, you

555
00:29:44.079 --> 00:29:46.480
<v Speaker 5>got to have hot person of a certain age with

556
00:29:46.519 --> 00:29:50.240
<v Speaker 5>a certain look. And I also that that well hold up.

557
00:29:50.799 --> 00:29:53.759
<v Speaker 5>I think also that gets typecast because you have the

558
00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:56.640
<v Speaker 5>other thing where you have oh, it's a CW cast, right,

559
00:29:56.880 --> 00:29:59.720
<v Speaker 5>and that became like the movies like oh, it's like

560
00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:02.680
<v Speaker 5>looks like c W. Right, Yeah, young attractive people.

561
00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean think about the Fog remake where.

562
00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:10.160
<v Speaker 1>We had yes, exactly exact guy from.

563
00:30:10.119 --> 00:30:14.720
<v Speaker 3>From Smallville playing right like, but I mean, of course

564
00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:16.279
<v Speaker 3>that's now twenty something.

565
00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:19.319
<v Speaker 1>But they took you're right because the original The Fog

566
00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:22.480
<v Speaker 1>has all the character actors in it and did not.

567
00:30:22.680 --> 00:30:23.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but like.

568
00:30:25.319 --> 00:30:29.480
<v Speaker 3>My point about this guy is that he is good

569
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:32.480
<v Speaker 3>looking in a way that he would be considered good

570
00:30:32.519 --> 00:30:35.960
<v Speaker 3>looking in a small town, right, but he is also

571
00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:40.680
<v Speaker 3>believably a sheriff, Like he looks like he could do

572
00:30:40.799 --> 00:30:44.359
<v Speaker 3>the job, which, to Tony's point, I do think they

573
00:30:44.440 --> 00:30:48.119
<v Speaker 3>used to care a lot more about that authen like

574
00:30:48.359 --> 00:30:53.519
<v Speaker 3>you can believe that this this attractive you know, well

575
00:30:53.559 --> 00:30:56.519
<v Speaker 3>to do woman is attracted to him because he's handsome

576
00:30:56.559 --> 00:31:01.440
<v Speaker 3>and charismatic enough. Yes, you know, like I never once

577
00:31:01.599 --> 00:31:04.359
<v Speaker 3>questioned that she she has a thing for.

578
00:31:04.359 --> 00:31:07.240
<v Speaker 2>Him, mamily. I mean he's like yeah, yeah.

579
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:10.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and that you know again when we are introduced

580
00:31:10.039 --> 00:31:12.920
<v Speaker 5>to them, they have a history, yes, so that and

581
00:31:12.960 --> 00:31:14.079
<v Speaker 5>that makes a lot of sense.

582
00:31:14.119 --> 00:31:17.720
<v Speaker 2>But I also, like Julia just hit something on the head.

583
00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:22.839
<v Speaker 3>Manliness is its own kind of attractiveness, Like, like it's

584
00:31:22.920 --> 00:31:25.799
<v Speaker 3>not you know, like it's why we say certain people

585
00:31:25.880 --> 00:31:29.519
<v Speaker 3>look rugged, you know, like that's not you know, like

586
00:31:29.519 --> 00:31:30.519
<v Speaker 3>like Clint.

587
00:31:30.200 --> 00:31:34.720
<v Speaker 4>Eastwood, why there's fireman calendars? You know, yeah, well just

588
00:31:35.599 --> 00:31:37.720
<v Speaker 4>and they go, yes, please, And it doesn't matter what

589
00:31:37.759 --> 00:31:38.400
<v Speaker 4>the guy looks like.

590
00:31:38.480 --> 00:31:39.480
<v Speaker 2>He's fireball.

591
00:31:39.960 --> 00:31:42.759
<v Speaker 3>And I mean even in in gay culture, you know,

592
00:31:42.920 --> 00:31:49.440
<v Speaker 3>which is generally more physically fit than than heteros. The

593
00:31:49.880 --> 00:31:52.759
<v Speaker 3>uh you know you have bear you know, which are

594
00:31:52.799 --> 00:31:57.039
<v Speaker 3>big burly dudes, and so like, you know, like it's

595
00:31:57.119 --> 00:31:59.960
<v Speaker 3>it's it's not as improbable as you think it is.

596
00:32:00.200 --> 00:32:01.880
<v Speaker 2>Jason, I don't.

597
00:32:01.720 --> 00:32:05.839
<v Speaker 1>Think it's improbable. I asked the question more to sort

598
00:32:05.839 --> 00:32:08.920
<v Speaker 1>of take a look at at sort of how things

599
00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:14.440
<v Speaker 1>have changed. I feel like there was room for David Jansen,

600
00:32:14.680 --> 00:32:17.599
<v Speaker 1>a forty one year old guy who looks about fifty eight,

601
00:32:18.079 --> 00:32:21.839
<v Speaker 1>to be the star of and romantic lead of this movie.

602
00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:24.640
<v Speaker 1>And thank god for the rest of us poor well.

603
00:32:24.559 --> 00:32:28.039
<v Speaker 3>You know he I think you're doing him at disservice.

604
00:32:28.079 --> 00:32:30.039
<v Speaker 3>I don't think he looks fifty eight, but.

605
00:32:31.680 --> 00:32:32.279
<v Speaker 2>You know, I.

606
00:32:34.720 --> 00:32:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, look fifty, look fifty. Something is different now from

607
00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:39.519
<v Speaker 1>what it was in nineteen seventy.

608
00:32:39.559 --> 00:32:41.680
<v Speaker 2>That is true. That is true because he.

609
00:32:41.720 --> 00:32:44.359
<v Speaker 1>Can get his hair different into you know, blah blah blah.

610
00:32:44.400 --> 00:32:46.559
<v Speaker 3>But he would look also look less like a small

611
00:32:46.599 --> 00:32:48.240
<v Speaker 3>town cop if he for sure.

612
00:32:48.599 --> 00:32:51.839
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, well that's that's exactly the fog problem is

613
00:32:51.920 --> 00:32:55.440
<v Speaker 1>once you get rid of the lived in sorts of actors,

614
00:32:55.559 --> 00:33:00.480
<v Speaker 1>then it feels more like like a CW show would have.

615
00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:02.960
<v Speaker 3>You would have a scene, you would have the obliglatory

616
00:33:03.079 --> 00:33:06.559
<v Speaker 3>scene where he shows off his Jim jim perfectly sculpted

617
00:33:06.640 --> 00:33:11.039
<v Speaker 3>apps and you know, like.

618
00:33:10.559 --> 00:33:11.359
<v Speaker 1>But only one guy.

619
00:33:12.319 --> 00:33:14.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, there's there's a big difference though, too. Like Rain

620
00:33:14.680 --> 00:33:17.640
<v Speaker 5>was watching some man I can't remember the name of it,

621
00:33:17.680 --> 00:33:21.240
<v Speaker 5>but it's a you know, thriller mystery soap opera show,

622
00:33:21.720 --> 00:33:25.119
<v Speaker 5>and you know, all the guys have like a generic

623
00:33:25.359 --> 00:33:29.039
<v Speaker 5>facial hair and very are very chiseled, and they're the

624
00:33:29.079 --> 00:33:32.200
<v Speaker 5>bad guys and they're the cops, and they're like, all

625
00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:37.640
<v Speaker 5>these guys look really similar and you know, and by

626
00:33:37.640 --> 00:33:42.559
<v Speaker 5>the standards today, they're all attractive guys, right and and

627
00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:45.279
<v Speaker 5>they but I'll be damned if I know who like,

628
00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:47.519
<v Speaker 5>I'll pass by and watch it. I don't know, like

629
00:33:47.680 --> 00:33:50.119
<v Speaker 5>they don't have the real Another reason why we keep

630
00:33:50.160 --> 00:33:53.359
<v Speaker 5>saying lived in is they everybody looks everybody looks like

631
00:33:53.400 --> 00:33:55.720
<v Speaker 5>the character, and that's part of like, hey, let's hire

632
00:33:55.720 --> 00:33:57.759
<v Speaker 5>a bunch of good actors who also happen to be

633
00:33:57.839 --> 00:34:00.039
<v Speaker 5>character actors. We're gonna put him in this thing. And

634
00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:02.720
<v Speaker 5>I think, yeah, I think if you you, I think

635
00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:05.319
<v Speaker 5>you hit on the head with the difference between original

636
00:34:05.359 --> 00:34:08.960
<v Speaker 5>fog and the new fog. Like that, we tend to

637
00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:12.400
<v Speaker 5>get more of what the new fog looks like in

638
00:34:12.400 --> 00:34:15.719
<v Speaker 5>in conventional cinema as it is now conventional.

639
00:34:15.800 --> 00:34:18.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean I also.

640
00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:19.920
<v Speaker 5>Think it's the same, right.

641
00:34:20.039 --> 00:34:20.800
<v Speaker 2>I think there's.

642
00:34:20.559 --> 00:34:27.599
<v Speaker 3>Also a homogeny of what you're supposed to think is attractive.

643
00:34:28.559 --> 00:34:33.599
<v Speaker 3>Now you know, you're you're only allowed one or two types.

644
00:34:34.559 --> 00:34:35.039
<v Speaker 1>Interesting.

645
00:34:35.360 --> 00:34:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but Barbara.

646
00:34:38.519 --> 00:34:41.880
<v Speaker 3>Rush, getting this into the direction that Jason wants to go,

647
00:34:42.639 --> 00:34:46.239
<v Speaker 3>is the most movie star looking person in this movie.

648
00:34:46.599 --> 00:34:52.960
<v Speaker 3>She's she's stunning, she's on her clothes. But yeah, continued,

649
00:34:53.239 --> 00:34:57.480
<v Speaker 3>she works because of where her social standing is, like

650
00:34:57.599 --> 00:35:01.159
<v Speaker 3>she should be a little bit more glamorous because she's

651
00:35:01.159 --> 00:35:03.280
<v Speaker 3>supposed to be well off.

652
00:35:03.519 --> 00:35:03.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

653
00:35:03.800 --> 00:35:09.199
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, what Jason was saying, I did feel like all

654
00:35:09.199 --> 00:35:10.440
<v Speaker 4>of the clothes and I don't know if it's just

655
00:35:10.480 --> 00:35:13.320
<v Speaker 4>the clothes of that time, they all look like somebody

656
00:35:13.360 --> 00:35:15.400
<v Speaker 4>made them out of one of those patterns that you

657
00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:18.480
<v Speaker 4>could get at the you know, at the local fabric store.

658
00:35:18.679 --> 00:35:21.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I mean I do think. I think that that's

659
00:35:21.960 --> 00:35:27.239
<v Speaker 5>probably pretty close from I mean, yeah, that is the

660
00:35:27.280 --> 00:35:31.079
<v Speaker 5>disservice of the Stephanie. There's a lot of fashions like, oh,

661
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:32.960
<v Speaker 5>why is everything drapes right?

662
00:35:33.519 --> 00:35:35.760
<v Speaker 2>Her hair is? Her hair is amazing?

663
00:35:35.840 --> 00:35:36.079
<v Speaker 1>Though.

664
00:35:36.199 --> 00:35:39.159
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, yeah, she's beautiful.

665
00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:43.159
<v Speaker 5>She's supposed to be because she's you know, her standing

666
00:35:43.280 --> 00:35:46.639
<v Speaker 5>is head and shoulders above pretty much everybody else in

667
00:35:46.679 --> 00:35:47.119
<v Speaker 5>the movie.

668
00:35:48.280 --> 00:35:54.800
<v Speaker 3>And I also really like that this is a romance

669
00:35:55.559 --> 00:36:00.960
<v Speaker 3>that is, first of all played very sweet and almost yeah,

670
00:36:01.000 --> 00:36:04.719
<v Speaker 3>and it's between two people in their forties, which I

671
00:36:04.760 --> 00:36:05.920
<v Speaker 3>don't think you would see now.

672
00:36:06.079 --> 00:36:08.719
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that great? I mean it is. It's it's it's

673
00:36:08.800 --> 00:36:10.440
<v Speaker 1>kind of cool. Well, I mean I say this as

674
00:36:10.480 --> 00:36:13.519
<v Speaker 1>an older person, you know, but it is. It's it's

675
00:36:13.559 --> 00:36:16.320
<v Speaker 1>cool to see them sort of fumbling their way through

676
00:36:16.360 --> 00:36:20.000
<v Speaker 1>this this romance. They're sweet, her in her pants suits,

677
00:36:20.079 --> 00:36:25.360
<v Speaker 1>it's it's it's really neat. Bradford Dilman, who plays the douchebag,

678
00:36:25.639 --> 00:36:28.559
<v Speaker 1>who says, well, you don't suppose that my sister was

679
00:36:28.639 --> 00:36:31.639
<v Speaker 1>seriously flirting with you. Blah blah blah. That guy plays

680
00:36:31.639 --> 00:36:34.159
<v Speaker 1>a douchebag in every single thing I've ever seen him in.

681
00:36:34.679 --> 00:36:38.119
<v Speaker 1>I I it's like it's on his punchable face that

682
00:36:38.519 --> 00:36:42.440
<v Speaker 1>like some some casting director said, yep, get me a

683
00:36:42.519 --> 00:36:43.239
<v Speaker 1>Bradford Dillman.

684
00:36:45.199 --> 00:36:47.679
<v Speaker 5>I always wonder. I'm sure there's a bunch of people

685
00:36:47.679 --> 00:36:50.239
<v Speaker 5>who are just great people, but there's certain actors who

686
00:36:50.360 --> 00:36:53.719
<v Speaker 5>always play that. Yes, I kind of you start you

687
00:36:53.760 --> 00:36:57.079
<v Speaker 5>do start to wonder, like are you how close?

688
00:36:57.159 --> 00:36:58.559
<v Speaker 1>Is that sucks?

689
00:36:59.800 --> 00:37:02.599
<v Speaker 5>I because you know, I there's there's several people who

690
00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:04.239
<v Speaker 5>just like when you ever see him, you're like, oh,

691
00:37:04.239 --> 00:37:06.639
<v Speaker 5>they're gonna play the guy you just want to hate.

692
00:37:06.760 --> 00:37:08.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and they never they.

693
00:37:08.239 --> 00:37:10.280
<v Speaker 5>Seem to get a lot of work there. But then

694
00:37:10.320 --> 00:37:12.960
<v Speaker 5>I wonder, like, how long can you were they that person?

695
00:37:13.079 --> 00:37:16.119
<v Speaker 5>And how long can you be that character in all

696
00:37:16.159 --> 00:37:19.039
<v Speaker 5>these movies and not have it rub like at least

697
00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:22.039
<v Speaker 5>a little bit. I'm always curious about you.

698
00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:25.320
<v Speaker 2>Know, he probably was a great guy, like I.

699
00:37:25.199 --> 00:37:28.239
<v Speaker 6>Always assume, But then, like you know, it's it's always

700
00:37:28.320 --> 00:37:32.559
<v Speaker 6>it's always strange when you have a character character actor

701
00:37:32.599 --> 00:37:35.800
<v Speaker 6>who's like very specific, like.

702
00:37:35.719 --> 00:37:39.159
<v Speaker 5>It's not like villain villain, but like a really like, oh,

703
00:37:39.280 --> 00:37:43.760
<v Speaker 5>that guy just gets he's it might be his general

704
00:37:44.960 --> 00:37:47.400
<v Speaker 5>upper crusty southernness in this movie.

705
00:37:47.599 --> 00:37:49.679
<v Speaker 2>I would describe this guy as a cat.

706
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:55.280
<v Speaker 1>That is, that is delightfully punishable. He uh. In real life,

707
00:37:55.400 --> 00:37:58.480
<v Speaker 1>so he had two marriages, one from fifty six to

708
00:37:58.519 --> 00:38:01.440
<v Speaker 1>sixty two, and then he married again in sixty three

709
00:38:01.559 --> 00:38:04.760
<v Speaker 1>and remained married until two thousand and three when his

710
00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:08.039
<v Speaker 1>wife died. So so I don't know, you know, somebody

711
00:38:08.119 --> 00:38:11.119
<v Speaker 1>could stand him for a long time. Probably this is

712
00:38:11.159 --> 00:38:14.599
<v Speaker 1>acting and he's like, you know, but boy, he's good

713
00:38:14.639 --> 00:38:15.920
<v Speaker 1>at playing a smug asshole.

714
00:38:17.119 --> 00:38:20.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, in fairness, he's the title character.

715
00:38:20.840 --> 00:38:24.760
<v Speaker 3>Yes, which I know that this is supposed to be

716
00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:30.119
<v Speaker 3>a mystery. Yeah, but not once did I think anybody

717
00:38:30.159 --> 00:38:32.639
<v Speaker 3>else was the werewolf the first time I saw this,

718
00:38:33.000 --> 00:38:34.440
<v Speaker 3>like I knew.

719
00:38:34.360 --> 00:38:37.320
<v Speaker 4>Well, I was hoping, Yeah, he seemed obvious, But then

720
00:38:37.320 --> 00:38:39.719
<v Speaker 4>I was hoping that he was too obvious, Like I

721
00:38:39.800 --> 00:38:41.679
<v Speaker 4>was like, maybe it's that turns out to be the sister,

722
00:38:41.880 --> 00:38:44.280
<v Speaker 4>or maybe it turns out it's actually the sheriff, or

723
00:38:44.280 --> 00:38:46.400
<v Speaker 4>maybe it turns out it's actually the doctor. You know,

724
00:38:46.440 --> 00:38:48.960
<v Speaker 4>because it seemed too obvious.

725
00:38:48.280 --> 00:38:52.280
<v Speaker 3>For it's it wasn't, because this is a Southern Gothic

726
00:38:52.800 --> 00:38:56.159
<v Speaker 3>it had to be somebody that was rich like that

727
00:38:56.920 --> 00:39:00.760
<v Speaker 3>could have been the sister if they wanted to be

728
00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:04.599
<v Speaker 3>even you know, something more tragic, but it was going

729
00:39:04.679 --> 00:39:07.480
<v Speaker 3>to be somebody. And indeed, like when we when we

730
00:39:08.000 --> 00:39:12.199
<v Speaker 3>learned the origin of the lycanthropy, it's it's something that's

731
00:39:12.199 --> 00:39:17.280
<v Speaker 3>apparently passed down through the family line, so like it's

732
00:39:17.360 --> 00:39:22.000
<v Speaker 3>it's you know, it's it's almost as if there were

733
00:39:22.039 --> 00:39:27.400
<v Speaker 3>wolf ism and their their affluence are kind of tied together,

734
00:39:27.639 --> 00:39:30.840
<v Speaker 3>and they're they're literally feeding on the poor, which is

735
00:39:31.519 --> 00:39:37.199
<v Speaker 3>probably it's it's probably you know that that's probably more

736
00:39:37.239 --> 00:39:40.360
<v Speaker 3>of a high falutin idea than anybody involved with this

737
00:39:40.559 --> 00:39:44.000
<v Speaker 3>was thinking. But you know, I mean it is it

738
00:39:44.360 --> 00:39:48.079
<v Speaker 3>works very well within the Southern Gothic framework.

739
00:39:49.079 --> 00:39:52.119
<v Speaker 5>I mean, if it was you know, close, and that

740
00:39:52.159 --> 00:39:55.719
<v Speaker 5>would be close to reality. In fact, the closest reality

741
00:39:55.760 --> 00:39:59.400
<v Speaker 5>would be if somebody else knew, the doctor or a

742
00:39:59.519 --> 00:40:02.159
<v Speaker 5>judge or somebody. Yeah, we know that they're we know

743
00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:04.719
<v Speaker 5>that they're rich, and they are also wear wolves, but

744
00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:08.679
<v Speaker 5>they only kind of eat the poor, so we kind

745
00:40:08.679 --> 00:40:12.360
<v Speaker 5>of let them like that. That would definitely happen, no

746
00:40:12.719 --> 00:40:15.559
<v Speaker 5>doubt about in my mind that if if it came

747
00:40:15.599 --> 00:40:18.119
<v Speaker 5>out like yeah, but they gotta let him eat the

748
00:40:18.159 --> 00:40:23.000
<v Speaker 5>poor because like that that absolutely, hands down, there would

749
00:40:23.039 --> 00:40:25.000
<v Speaker 5>be some people who knew and just look the other

750
00:40:25.039 --> 00:40:27.480
<v Speaker 5>way that I'm convinced.

751
00:40:27.199 --> 00:40:31.239
<v Speaker 3>The Jeffrey Lewis character is definitely set up as like

752
00:40:31.280 --> 00:40:34.000
<v Speaker 3>a red herring, like right down to the fact that

753
00:40:34.039 --> 00:40:37.639
<v Speaker 3>his name is Lawrence y you know, and.

754
00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:40.960
<v Speaker 1>And lewis playing the same part that he plays in

755
00:40:41.119 --> 00:40:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Salem's Lot more or less.

756
00:40:44.199 --> 00:40:47.519
<v Speaker 3>And he's even left handed, which is a bit of

757
00:40:48.239 --> 00:40:52.639
<v Speaker 3>where wolf folklore, because where wolves, people who are left

758
00:40:52.679 --> 00:40:55.440
<v Speaker 3>handed were thought to be where wolves.

759
00:40:55.960 --> 00:41:00.159
<v Speaker 1>So you know that's really they're they're stress this family.

760
00:41:00.360 --> 00:41:02.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, you know the.

761
00:41:04.320 --> 00:41:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Jeffrey Lewis, let's linger on him for just a moment,

762
00:41:07.000 --> 00:41:12.800
<v Speaker 1>because he's another just ultra reliable. Look, David Jansen's a star. Okay,

763
00:41:12.840 --> 00:41:15.679
<v Speaker 1>he's not a character actor. He's he was the lead

764
00:41:15.719 --> 00:41:17.800
<v Speaker 1>of a bunch of TV shows, including The Fugitive. But

765
00:41:17.880 --> 00:41:22.519
<v Speaker 1>Jeffrey Lewis is a character actor. Tried and true. He

766
00:41:22.519 --> 00:41:24.960
<v Speaker 1>he and when I was a kid, he was everywhere

767
00:41:25.000 --> 00:41:27.880
<v Speaker 1>like he just yeah, he's on so many movies and

768
00:41:27.920 --> 00:41:30.119
<v Speaker 1>he's wonderful. I have no idea what he was like

769
00:41:30.159 --> 00:41:32.920
<v Speaker 1>as a person, you know, which is true of several

770
00:41:33.000 --> 00:41:35.039
<v Speaker 1>of these people, because I feel the same way about

771
00:41:35.079 --> 00:41:38.199
<v Speaker 1>Royal Dan, and I've got no idea like but Jeffrey

772
00:41:38.239 --> 00:41:41.280
<v Speaker 1>Lewis is so good at playing these sort of rough

773
00:41:41.320 --> 00:41:46.639
<v Speaker 1>around the edges, although not typically malevolent characters, you know,

774
00:41:46.880 --> 00:41:49.880
<v Speaker 1>And and like I guess Juliet Lewis could tell us

775
00:41:49.880 --> 00:41:53.840
<v Speaker 1>what he was like. But yeah, it's so good seeing him, and.

776
00:41:54.719 --> 00:42:00.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well he he has a very very very interesting

777
00:42:00.199 --> 00:42:04.440
<v Speaker 3>look about him that could imply malevolence, which is why

778
00:42:04.480 --> 00:42:10.559
<v Speaker 3>he makes such a striking vampire in Salem's Lot, and

779
00:42:10.639 --> 00:42:14.880
<v Speaker 3>so you can kind of believe that he's a were wolf.

780
00:42:14.960 --> 00:42:18.199
<v Speaker 3>But I again, I never would have suspected him because

781
00:42:18.239 --> 00:42:19.840
<v Speaker 3>I just you just know, it's not going to be

782
00:42:19.880 --> 00:42:20.840
<v Speaker 3>one of the poor people.

783
00:42:20.960 --> 00:42:21.159
<v Speaker 2>You know.

784
00:42:22.000 --> 00:42:24.119
<v Speaker 1>That did not even occur to me. But I guess

785
00:42:24.159 --> 00:42:26.679
<v Speaker 1>you're right that that I didn't really suspect him of

786
00:42:26.760 --> 00:42:29.760
<v Speaker 1>being a were wolf. I knew it was gonna You're

787
00:42:29.800 --> 00:42:32.599
<v Speaker 1>exactly right. I didn't even think about it. You're articulating

788
00:42:32.639 --> 00:42:35.719
<v Speaker 1>something that was going on without my actually thinking it aloud,

789
00:42:35.760 --> 00:42:37.800
<v Speaker 1>which there was no way it was going to be

790
00:42:38.239 --> 00:42:41.400
<v Speaker 1>anybody but essentially part of the upper crust.

791
00:42:41.480 --> 00:42:44.119
<v Speaker 4>Or I was hoping it would be the doctor maybe

792
00:42:44.159 --> 00:42:45.440
<v Speaker 4>because I thought that would have been fun.

793
00:42:45.719 --> 00:42:48.840
<v Speaker 1>That guy's from General Hospital, by the way, and doctor

794
00:42:49.000 --> 00:42:51.119
<v Speaker 1>doctor werewolf EMPD Yes.

795
00:42:50.880 --> 00:42:56.440
<v Speaker 4>Doctor doctor third in my class, m d. Doctor knocked

796
00:42:56.480 --> 00:42:57.400
<v Speaker 4>out the dead woman.

797
00:42:57.960 --> 00:43:01.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that doctor third in your class is not the

798
00:43:01.039 --> 00:43:02.400
<v Speaker 3>flex you think it is.

799
00:43:03.039 --> 00:43:06.320
<v Speaker 1>What an amazing guy. That was where I thought this

800
00:43:06.480 --> 00:43:10.400
<v Speaker 1>script is a little funny because this actor saying these

801
00:43:10.440 --> 00:43:13.119
<v Speaker 1>lines like I couldn't stay away from this young woman.

802
00:43:13.199 --> 00:43:15.519
<v Speaker 1>Then I gave her a bubble too of a musicer

803
00:43:16.079 --> 00:43:19.559
<v Speaker 1>like it that I like this guy being here. There's

804
00:43:19.679 --> 00:43:22.280
<v Speaker 1>something funny and counterintuitive about it.

805
00:43:22.360 --> 00:43:25.480
<v Speaker 2>But who starts their life over at fifty?

806
00:43:26.360 --> 00:43:29.760
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, well I think he's also like I like that

807
00:43:30.280 --> 00:43:33.719
<v Speaker 5>once because he's trying to just, you know, I gotta

808
00:43:33.800 --> 00:43:36.599
<v Speaker 5>do my doctor thing. And then the more he talks,

809
00:43:36.639 --> 00:43:39.280
<v Speaker 5>the more you realize this is a man trapped in

810
00:43:39.320 --> 00:43:42.800
<v Speaker 5>a place he did not see himself being trapped in, yes,

811
00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:46.079
<v Speaker 5>and he just kind of well, I'm stuck in you know,

812
00:43:46.280 --> 00:43:49.079
<v Speaker 5>b F Louisiana, and that's my lot in life. And

813
00:43:49.079 --> 00:43:51.719
<v Speaker 5>that's why eventually he comes to this lee. They can't

814
00:43:51.760 --> 00:43:54.920
<v Speaker 5>start over in the city at fifty. Nobody's you know,

815
00:43:55.159 --> 00:43:57.559
<v Speaker 5>but his life the.

816
00:43:57.559 --> 00:44:01.199
<v Speaker 1>Word fifty by the way, because well I think he

817
00:44:01.320 --> 00:44:03.119
<v Speaker 1>left behind a few years ago.

818
00:44:03.400 --> 00:44:07.559
<v Speaker 5>Well but but you know, his whole thing is I'm

819
00:44:07.599 --> 00:44:09.000
<v Speaker 5>stuck with these rubes.

820
00:44:09.239 --> 00:44:10.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but also I'm not.

821
00:44:10.559 --> 00:44:12.679
<v Speaker 5>I'm not much better, but I have my you know,

822
00:44:12.800 --> 00:44:14.599
<v Speaker 5>I feel like I am because I'm a doctor.

823
00:44:15.599 --> 00:44:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Right, He's this giant fish in a little pond. And

824
00:44:17.960 --> 00:44:20.360
<v Speaker 1>if and that's kind of what he really means is

825
00:44:20.360 --> 00:44:21.559
<v Speaker 1>that he has station here.

826
00:44:21.719 --> 00:44:24.639
<v Speaker 5>You know, if he but suck, it's a cage. It's

827
00:44:24.679 --> 00:44:28.239
<v Speaker 5>like it's a cage for him as well as you know, Hey,

828
00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:31.360
<v Speaker 5>he's the he gets respect in ways that he might

829
00:44:31.400 --> 00:44:34.480
<v Speaker 5>not elsewhere. Certainly not like you know, go to the

830
00:44:34.480 --> 00:44:36.840
<v Speaker 5>city is what he's talking about. Third year class as

831
00:44:36.840 --> 00:44:39.480
<v Speaker 5>a matter in the city, right, and probably if you're

832
00:44:39.519 --> 00:44:42.719
<v Speaker 5>starting over well yeah, but but you know, like so

833
00:44:42.800 --> 00:44:45.840
<v Speaker 5>he's he's comfortable. And that's part of why, you know,

834
00:44:45.920 --> 00:44:48.760
<v Speaker 5>why he's got the young girl and and all of

835
00:44:48.920 --> 00:44:51.519
<v Speaker 5>you know, all these all this stuff that's happening is

836
00:44:51.719 --> 00:44:55.639
<v Speaker 5>because he's definitely in a place he never envisioned himself.

837
00:44:55.760 --> 00:44:58.320
<v Speaker 5>And throughout the movie, it's just getting worse.

838
00:44:58.559 --> 00:45:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know that that is a that is a

839
00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:03.440
<v Speaker 1>really cool character and it makes me want to read

840
00:45:03.440 --> 00:45:07.519
<v Speaker 1>this book even more. And as you're talking about it, Yeah,

841
00:45:07.760 --> 00:45:10.880
<v Speaker 1>this is a procedural so setting up these different, these

842
00:45:10.960 --> 00:45:17.519
<v Speaker 1>different you know, possible culprits. Right, because the Sarah, the nurse, says,

843
00:45:17.599 --> 00:45:19.480
<v Speaker 1>find out who made the girl pregnant. That's going to

844
00:45:19.559 --> 00:45:23.280
<v Speaker 1>be your your bad guy. And but David Jansen.

845
00:45:23.239 --> 00:45:25.719
<v Speaker 4>Essentially why I wanted him to be the werewolf because

846
00:45:25.760 --> 00:45:27.880
<v Speaker 4>I wanted her to be right that he's the one

847
00:45:27.880 --> 00:45:29.480
<v Speaker 4>I knocked her up, so therefore he killed her.

848
00:45:29.559 --> 00:45:32.519
<v Speaker 1>Right, But no, it was it wasn't that at all.

849
00:45:33.079 --> 00:45:36.239
<v Speaker 5>And you know, also the the the other part of

850
00:45:36.280 --> 00:45:40.119
<v Speaker 5>the dynamic in this is when she's talking to the sheriff.

851
00:45:40.400 --> 00:45:43.480
<v Speaker 5>Because of the politics of the town, not the sheriff

852
00:45:43.519 --> 00:45:46.079
<v Speaker 5>has to listen because he knows he's got to be everywhere.

853
00:45:46.559 --> 00:45:48.800
<v Speaker 5>But she also knows that. The part of the reason

854
00:45:48.880 --> 00:45:51.440
<v Speaker 5>she hasn't said anything elsewhere is because she knows her

855
00:45:51.480 --> 00:45:53.679
<v Speaker 5>voice won't be heard. Yeah, the sheriff is the only

856
00:45:53.760 --> 00:45:58.079
<v Speaker 5>person by by default, even though he's like a nicer guy. Yeah,

857
00:45:58.800 --> 00:46:01.159
<v Speaker 5>you could play this a bunch of ways. You know,

858
00:46:01.199 --> 00:46:03.840
<v Speaker 5>he could be much worse, but you know he's there

859
00:46:03.920 --> 00:46:06.599
<v Speaker 5>to listen to everyone. Yeah, And so part of the

860
00:46:06.599 --> 00:46:09.639
<v Speaker 5>reasons she's cagey in the way that she is until

861
00:46:09.679 --> 00:46:11.840
<v Speaker 5>she's talking to him is because you know, in this

862
00:46:11.960 --> 00:46:15.000
<v Speaker 5>town she doesn't have any or doesn't have as much hand,

863
00:46:15.239 --> 00:46:20.199
<v Speaker 5>you know, because like it's certainly, certainly she's not the

864
00:46:20.239 --> 00:46:22.039
<v Speaker 5>one who can speak against the doctor.

865
00:46:22.159 --> 00:46:25.280
<v Speaker 1>Right, that's right, and there's a there's a thing. So

866
00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:27.480
<v Speaker 1>you could present the sheriff in a lot of different ways,

867
00:46:27.519 --> 00:46:29.960
<v Speaker 1>because he could be an evil, corrupt sheriff, but in

868
00:46:30.000 --> 00:46:33.159
<v Speaker 1>this case, you have a good sheriff. And in a mystery,

869
00:46:33.239 --> 00:46:36.960
<v Speaker 1>typically and usually it's a pi. What what distinguishes the

870
00:46:37.440 --> 00:46:40.400
<v Speaker 1>hero in one of these stories is that they're kind

871
00:46:40.480 --> 00:46:44.800
<v Speaker 1>of an insider outsider. They're an insider that can move

872
00:46:44.920 --> 00:46:47.159
<v Speaker 1>through all They can move up and down, they can

873
00:46:47.199 --> 00:46:50.280
<v Speaker 1>go to the lowliest cabin, they can go to the

874
00:46:50.320 --> 00:46:52.840
<v Speaker 1>biggest house. They can kind of put up with people

875
00:46:52.880 --> 00:46:55.199
<v Speaker 1>being snied to them no matter what, you know. And

876
00:46:55.639 --> 00:46:58.280
<v Speaker 1>that's a cool character that you know, and it's true,

877
00:46:58.719 --> 00:47:01.280
<v Speaker 1>like everybody knows they can talk to this guy. Look,

878
00:47:01.320 --> 00:47:04.119
<v Speaker 1>he's he's investigating this murder and he's hanging out with

879
00:47:04.199 --> 00:47:07.480
<v Speaker 1>all the people who might be the culprit, like all

880
00:47:07.519 --> 00:47:10.000
<v Speaker 1>the way through which I which I find strange and

881
00:47:10.039 --> 00:47:12.800
<v Speaker 1>comforting really that that he's like, yeah, well, why don't

882
00:47:12.840 --> 00:47:16.159
<v Speaker 1>you come along? It's it's right, yeah.

883
00:47:16.199 --> 00:47:20.079
<v Speaker 3>Well, and apparently this guy does know he's a were

884
00:47:20.079 --> 00:47:23.000
<v Speaker 3>wolf because he kept a gun fully loaded with silver

885
00:47:23.039 --> 00:47:28.400
<v Speaker 3>bullets in his home, so like he's he's really only

886
00:47:28.480 --> 00:47:32.119
<v Speaker 3>hanging out with the sheriff, either to find out how

887
00:47:32.199 --> 00:47:35.079
<v Speaker 3>much the sheriff knows or I don't know.

888
00:47:35.320 --> 00:47:38.119
<v Speaker 2>Convenient meal, I don't know.

889
00:47:39.480 --> 00:47:42.159
<v Speaker 4>The lord doesn't include silver bullets in this one. It's

890
00:47:42.199 --> 00:47:43.639
<v Speaker 4>blessed bullets because I don't think.

891
00:47:43.760 --> 00:47:46.639
<v Speaker 2>Well she said blessed blessed silver bullets.

892
00:47:46.960 --> 00:47:50.159
<v Speaker 4>Oh doesssed silver bullets?

893
00:47:50.440 --> 00:47:55.119
<v Speaker 3>Okay, but burning or blessed silver bullets either. Either way,

894
00:47:55.239 --> 00:47:57.719
<v Speaker 3>he knows he's a were wolf. He's got he's got

895
00:47:58.159 --> 00:48:01.400
<v Speaker 3>he's got a gun loaded up with with the magic

896
00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:04.440
<v Speaker 3>bullets in the in the in his home.

897
00:48:04.719 --> 00:48:09.519
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, in a sense, he's biding his time until

898
00:48:09.679 --> 00:48:13.119
<v Speaker 1>he finally reveals himself and and and gets himself killed

899
00:48:13.119 --> 00:48:16.400
<v Speaker 1>by his sister, which by the way, is also wonderfully

900
00:48:17.320 --> 00:48:19.440
<v Speaker 1>she she's great.

901
00:48:19.840 --> 00:48:23.119
<v Speaker 2>In the last scene though, like is harrowing? Is that

902
00:48:23.199 --> 00:48:24.920
<v Speaker 2>all is yea for her?

903
00:48:26.519 --> 00:48:31.119
<v Speaker 3>You know, like she's not exactly a shrinking violet like

904
00:48:31.159 --> 00:48:34.559
<v Speaker 3>she becomes you know, like she becomes basically the hero

905
00:48:34.760 --> 00:48:39.719
<v Speaker 3>and the last section of the movie, you know, like

906
00:48:39.960 --> 00:48:45.000
<v Speaker 3>she's taken care of taking care of business what.

907
00:48:45.440 --> 00:48:48.960
<v Speaker 1>Barbara Stanwick wasn't available and and so you know we

908
00:48:49.039 --> 00:48:51.840
<v Speaker 1>have we have Barbara Barbara Russia. But that's exactly a

909
00:48:51.880 --> 00:48:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Standwarik kind of thing.

910
00:48:53.360 --> 00:48:58.559
<v Speaker 3>She What's interesting to me is like the mixture of

911
00:48:58.760 --> 00:49:03.880
<v Speaker 3>like classic where we'll movie lore with like the the

912
00:49:04.159 --> 00:49:06.960
<v Speaker 3>you know, the Rugarou stuff, because like you have this

913
00:49:07.079 --> 00:49:11.679
<v Speaker 3>guy having a seizure because he smelled the sulfur. But

914
00:49:11.800 --> 00:49:16.320
<v Speaker 3>also you know, they mentioned the whole bit about you know,

915
00:49:16.440 --> 00:49:20.679
<v Speaker 3>him seeing a pentagram in the palm of his next victim,

916
00:49:20.840 --> 00:49:23.760
<v Speaker 3>which is is you know, a straight lift from the

917
00:49:23.760 --> 00:49:27.159
<v Speaker 3>wolf Man. You know, it's not it's not something from

918
00:49:27.880 --> 00:49:33.480
<v Speaker 3>Rugaru stuff. So like it's like sort of like mix

919
00:49:34.119 --> 00:49:37.760
<v Speaker 3>mix and match where wolf folks, which is fine, you know,

920
00:49:37.960 --> 00:49:41.079
<v Speaker 3>like it's it's okay, I'm not complaining. I just I

921
00:49:41.199 --> 00:49:45.239
<v Speaker 3>just find that they use like were wolf shorthand for

922
00:49:45.320 --> 00:49:49.320
<v Speaker 3>one thing, but then they'll introduce something completely you know,

923
00:49:49.480 --> 00:49:54.800
<v Speaker 3>specific to the setting, like the sulfur, and you know

924
00:49:55.119 --> 00:49:57.159
<v Speaker 3>that that's.

925
00:49:57.039 --> 00:49:57.639
<v Speaker 2>Cool to me.

926
00:49:59.000 --> 00:50:02.400
<v Speaker 3>She does try to burn her brother alive, which is

927
00:50:02.880 --> 00:50:06.039
<v Speaker 3>a lot dark like he he ends up getting shot,

928
00:50:06.079 --> 00:50:08.880
<v Speaker 3>which is a is a much nicer way to go that,

929
00:50:09.119 --> 00:50:11.199
<v Speaker 3>presumably even if you're a werewolf.

930
00:50:12.639 --> 00:50:15.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, this is I do kind of like that, and

931
00:50:16.000 --> 00:50:18.400
<v Speaker 5>we kind of know we know why he's having the

932
00:50:18.440 --> 00:50:22.320
<v Speaker 5>seizure or we're pretty sure, but I do like the

933
00:50:22.360 --> 00:50:26.119
<v Speaker 5>in world story where it's also could just be like, well,

934
00:50:26.280 --> 00:50:29.320
<v Speaker 5>you know the rich are kind of weak bread like

935
00:50:29.760 --> 00:50:35.039
<v Speaker 5>there's a yeah, well, well there's there's always the like, yeah,

936
00:50:35.079 --> 00:50:38.000
<v Speaker 5>well the rich folks are kind of have their their problem.

937
00:50:38.039 --> 00:50:41.079
<v Speaker 5>Their blood problems are their face like like all the

938
00:50:41.199 --> 00:50:44.840
<v Speaker 5>kind of in breeding slash, you know, all the maladies

939
00:50:44.880 --> 00:50:47.239
<v Speaker 5>of the rich. It kind of makes sense to like, yeah,

940
00:50:47.599 --> 00:50:49.199
<v Speaker 5>it was always a sickly one, you know.

941
00:50:49.239 --> 00:50:52.239
<v Speaker 3>Well, and he's even he's even saying that his sister

942
00:50:52.760 --> 00:50:57.159
<v Speaker 3>is sickly. You know, like yes, you half expect him

943
00:50:57.159 --> 00:50:59.480
<v Speaker 3>to go, well, I how to how to touch us

944
00:50:59.480 --> 00:51:01.639
<v Speaker 3>the vapor buzz right, right.

945
00:51:01.480 --> 00:51:01.639
<v Speaker 2>But.

946
00:51:03.280 --> 00:51:07.559
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, we we're okay with that given the you know,

947
00:51:07.719 --> 00:51:10.400
<v Speaker 5>royalty just sometimes as these maladies.

948
00:51:10.599 --> 00:51:14.880
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that wild? Like once this world fantastic? Yeah, I

949
00:51:14.880 --> 00:51:18.880
<v Speaker 1>mean you accept it because you're in this Southern Gothic world.

950
00:51:18.960 --> 00:51:23.199
<v Speaker 1>Anytime there's these weeping willows around everywhere, suddenly it's you

951
00:51:23.519 --> 00:51:27.840
<v Speaker 1>can hear people talk about these sort of silly nineteenth

952
00:51:27.880 --> 00:51:32.800
<v Speaker 1>century ideas of medicine and everything, and you go, yeah, okay, sure,

953
00:51:32.920 --> 00:51:37.440
<v Speaker 1>because we've suspended all all scientific rules and we're we're

954
00:51:37.559 --> 00:51:39.480
<v Speaker 1>in weird Southern Gothic lands now.

955
00:51:39.639 --> 00:51:43.800
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, I you know, I also like the werewolf,

956
00:51:43.840 --> 00:51:46.440
<v Speaker 5>and again they're smart. We only kind of see the

957
00:51:46.440 --> 00:51:49.519
<v Speaker 5>wholf and it's a very human looking werewolf. But I

958
00:51:49.559 --> 00:51:53.639
<v Speaker 5>also liked the jail break in yes it and I

959
00:51:53.679 --> 00:51:56.760
<v Speaker 5>guess you know so also I was thinking the closest

960
00:51:56.800 --> 00:52:00.159
<v Speaker 5>I think we've had to like a Precinct thirteen with

961
00:52:00.199 --> 00:52:04.920
<v Speaker 5>werewolves's probably dog soldiers, right. But I would also totally watch,

962
00:52:05.239 --> 00:52:07.400
<v Speaker 5>and I don't know if I've seen it, a oopster

963
00:52:07.519 --> 00:52:12.159
<v Speaker 5>happens to be a werewolf in prison. That that is

964
00:52:12.199 --> 00:52:14.440
<v Speaker 5>a movie I would also watch. That would be cool.

965
00:52:15.159 --> 00:52:17.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, that sounds like alien in a prison.

966
00:52:17.599 --> 00:52:19.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but you could do a lot with that. But anyway,

967
00:52:19.840 --> 00:52:21.920
<v Speaker 5>I was like, I was it made you know, that

968
00:52:22.039 --> 00:52:24.800
<v Speaker 5>said all kinds of wheels in motion, Uh seeing that

969
00:52:24.840 --> 00:52:27.559
<v Speaker 5>because you know, we don't I guess, you know, I

970
00:52:27.559 --> 00:52:30.559
<v Speaker 5>guess the original world, you know Werewolf movies, he's he

971
00:52:30.760 --> 00:52:34.000
<v Speaker 5>hides in the in the jail to try to like, hey,

972
00:52:34.119 --> 00:52:36.519
<v Speaker 5>lock me in here. We have the opposite where he's

973
00:52:36.559 --> 00:52:38.559
<v Speaker 5>trying to cover up you know, the Werewolve's trying to

974
00:52:38.599 --> 00:52:42.440
<v Speaker 5>cover up his trail. Yeah, totally busting into the like

975
00:52:42.519 --> 00:52:45.000
<v Speaker 5>all that. That's that stuff was cool. It's you know,

976
00:52:45.119 --> 00:52:48.079
<v Speaker 5>strong as hell, like, yeah, that's and that's at the

977
00:52:48.119 --> 00:52:50.480
<v Speaker 5>point where they know, like this isn't just a murderer.

978
00:52:50.559 --> 00:52:53.599
<v Speaker 5>This this whatever is going on, can rip the whole

979
00:52:54.000 --> 00:52:56.199
<v Speaker 5>you know, doors off of a cell.

980
00:52:56.960 --> 00:53:01.960
<v Speaker 1>All because none of them are strong enough to tear

981
00:53:01.960 --> 00:53:04.719
<v Speaker 1>out iron bars.

982
00:53:04.840 --> 00:53:08.280
<v Speaker 5>I thought that was that was cool. That was unexpected

983
00:53:08.440 --> 00:53:11.199
<v Speaker 5>and interesting and made me think about a lot of

984
00:53:11.239 --> 00:53:14.079
<v Speaker 5>stuff that could be written then would be awesome. But

985
00:53:14.199 --> 00:53:16.760
<v Speaker 5>I think in here it's really solid. Plus they have

986
00:53:16.920 --> 00:53:20.519
<v Speaker 5>the you know, before this, they do have the like, yeah,

987
00:53:20.800 --> 00:53:24.559
<v Speaker 5>sleep it off kind of the almost Maybury.

988
00:53:24.239 --> 00:53:26.039
<v Speaker 1>Like yes, yeah we know you're here, but.

989
00:53:26.159 --> 00:53:30.599
<v Speaker 5>You know we know you and that that stuff is

990
00:53:30.719 --> 00:53:34.480
<v Speaker 5>truly only really happens in small towns because everybody knows

991
00:53:34.519 --> 00:53:36.719
<v Speaker 5>each other and like, yeah, like we got to keep

992
00:53:36.719 --> 00:53:39.159
<v Speaker 5>you here, but we all kind of know. Yeah, I

993
00:53:39.199 --> 00:53:41.840
<v Speaker 5>thought that all that stuff, all that stuff is really great, wonderful.

994
00:53:42.719 --> 00:53:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Is We've been all over the place, mainly making our

995
00:53:45.840 --> 00:53:48.840
<v Speaker 1>way through by talking about themes and actors. But is

996
00:53:48.880 --> 00:53:51.800
<v Speaker 1>there anything that we should bring up that that that

997
00:53:52.039 --> 00:53:56.480
<v Speaker 1>I've missed, because I, you know, my main thing that

998
00:53:56.519 --> 00:53:59.880
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to make sure. Oh yeah, Royal Dano. Royal

999
00:54:00.079 --> 00:54:05.840
<v Speaker 1>Dano here plays you know, the Tom Germandy's this this

1000
00:54:05.960 --> 00:54:09.239
<v Speaker 1>grumbly old guy in the in this shack with his

1001
00:54:09.719 --> 00:54:12.920
<v Speaker 1>son played by John Davis Chandler. And I think it's

1002
00:54:12.960 --> 00:54:14.760
<v Speaker 1>hilarious by the way that on the night of the

1003
00:54:14.840 --> 00:54:17.719
<v Speaker 1>murder he had gone to the movies, which I thought

1004
00:54:17.760 --> 00:54:21.360
<v Speaker 1>was was great. You know that this this guy, you know,

1005
00:54:21.800 --> 00:54:24.880
<v Speaker 1>he's he's such a strange character with his grumbling voice

1006
00:54:24.920 --> 00:54:27.920
<v Speaker 1>and everything. I don't know what Royal Dano was like.

1007
00:54:28.039 --> 00:54:31.039
<v Speaker 1>He may have been a really wonderful, genteel person. He

1008
00:54:31.280 --> 00:54:34.719
<v Speaker 1>always plays this cantankerous country.

1009
00:54:34.440 --> 00:54:37.000
<v Speaker 2>Except when he's Abraham Lincoln.

1010
00:54:37.239 --> 00:54:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Except for when he's Abraham Lincoln. And that's the thing

1011
00:54:39.480 --> 00:54:43.840
<v Speaker 1>that makes it really interesting, like I want to know

1012
00:54:43.880 --> 00:54:45.000
<v Speaker 1>more about Royal Danel.

1013
00:54:45.599 --> 00:54:49.679
<v Speaker 3>Royal Royal Dano has one of the best exchanges with

1014
00:54:49.800 --> 00:54:53.320
<v Speaker 3>the sheriff in this movie because the sheriff asks him

1015
00:54:54.039 --> 00:54:57.599
<v Speaker 3>where you know, did you He's asking him if he

1016
00:54:57.599 --> 00:55:04.199
<v Speaker 3>he put his son, his adult son to bed that night,

1017
00:55:04.400 --> 00:55:07.360
<v Speaker 3>and the Royal Dane points out, no, my son is

1018
00:55:07.400 --> 00:55:07.960
<v Speaker 3>a grown up.

1019
00:55:08.000 --> 00:55:09.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't I don't check in on.

1020
00:55:09.800 --> 00:55:12.760
<v Speaker 5>All of that. All that was great, like.

1021
00:55:14.639 --> 00:55:19.440
<v Speaker 3>The he is the sort of actor though, like the

1022
00:55:19.480 --> 00:55:21.639
<v Speaker 3>exact sort of actor that we're talking about.

1023
00:55:21.679 --> 00:55:23.199
<v Speaker 2>That just adds like.

1024
00:55:23.519 --> 00:55:26.159
<v Speaker 3>You believe that he is this guy that lives in

1025
00:55:26.159 --> 00:55:29.519
<v Speaker 3>a shack on the side of a swamp, you know, like.

1026
00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:34.119
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and again the people they got and the dialogue

1027
00:55:34.159 --> 00:55:36.400
<v Speaker 5>and how it all works together, like you get that

1028
00:55:36.480 --> 00:55:38.360
<v Speaker 5>they live out here and they deal with all this

1029
00:55:38.400 --> 00:55:41.599
<v Speaker 5>stuff all the time. I also like that interaction because

1030
00:55:42.519 --> 00:55:45.039
<v Speaker 5>the subtext is, look, man, we live in the swamp,

1031
00:55:45.079 --> 00:55:48.639
<v Speaker 5>but we're not stupid, right weirdos like give me a break,

1032
00:55:49.760 --> 00:55:53.320
<v Speaker 5>go back to town, you know, like come on, Like

1033
00:55:53.719 --> 00:55:55.960
<v Speaker 5>but there's that that you know, look, I know how

1034
00:55:56.000 --> 00:55:59.440
<v Speaker 5>you think of me, but come on, and that it's

1035
00:55:59.519 --> 00:56:01.960
<v Speaker 5>it's just layered so well, I just keep as I

1036
00:56:02.039 --> 00:56:06.119
<v Speaker 5>was watching it, it just felt it's so lived in and believable,

1037
00:56:06.320 --> 00:56:09.599
<v Speaker 5>and that doesn't I don't think that that happens as

1038
00:56:09.719 --> 00:56:13.440
<v Speaker 5>much as people would like in cinema these days. And

1039
00:56:13.480 --> 00:56:16.000
<v Speaker 5>I don't again, I don't know exactly what. And then

1040
00:56:16.079 --> 00:56:18.880
<v Speaker 5>there's there's good examples of that, and there's just good storytelling,

1041
00:56:18.960 --> 00:56:22.280
<v Speaker 5>but there's just something about this period of time and

1042
00:56:22.639 --> 00:56:25.880
<v Speaker 5>kind of how this all works again that's elevated, I think,

1043
00:56:25.960 --> 00:56:29.679
<v Speaker 5>beyond a TV movie. Not that, and like I said before,

1044
00:56:29.840 --> 00:56:32.599
<v Speaker 5>like you don't expect it because of the usual budgets

1045
00:56:32.639 --> 00:56:34.639
<v Speaker 5>and stuff that you get, or that that maybe a

1046
00:56:34.639 --> 00:56:36.480
<v Speaker 5>lot and also you know, in a lot of TV

1047
00:56:36.559 --> 00:56:40.880
<v Speaker 5>movies it's kind of a more more overly dramatic. There's

1048
00:56:40.920 --> 00:56:44.360
<v Speaker 5>a certain style and I kept coming back to it

1049
00:56:44.440 --> 00:56:46.960
<v Speaker 5>in this movie that just you could take the work.

1050
00:56:47.039 --> 00:56:49.039
<v Speaker 5>You could even it could be a different mystery. It

1051
00:56:49.039 --> 00:56:51.480
<v Speaker 5>could be a murder mystery without the werewolf. I think again,

1052
00:56:51.519 --> 00:56:53.199
<v Speaker 5>I love that it has the werewolf, but it could

1053
00:56:53.199 --> 00:56:55.239
<v Speaker 5>be a murder mystery. It would be just as effective

1054
00:56:55.400 --> 00:56:58.920
<v Speaker 5>and probably not as memorable, maybe, I think, because that's

1055
00:56:58.960 --> 00:57:03.199
<v Speaker 5>part of what the charm. Yeah, yeah, the werewolf aspect

1056
00:57:03.239 --> 00:57:05.800
<v Speaker 5>is a supernatural aspect that makes it different. But you

1057
00:57:06.199 --> 00:57:09.639
<v Speaker 5>again when you said, like, oh, you want supernatural plus.

1058
00:57:09.360 --> 00:57:11.480
<v Speaker 1>In the heat of the night, Like, yeah, yes, but

1059
00:57:11.639 --> 00:57:14.559
<v Speaker 1>in the it does work a lot better when you

1060
00:57:14.639 --> 00:57:18.159
<v Speaker 1>go ahead and and like I like Peyton plays. But

1061
00:57:18.199 --> 00:57:20.360
<v Speaker 1>one of the big problems was that they cut out

1062
00:57:20.559 --> 00:57:24.760
<v Speaker 1>the poor people. They decided, for whatever reason, that the

1063
00:57:24.800 --> 00:57:27.239
<v Speaker 1>audience wanted to watch the middle class and the rich.

1064
00:57:27.480 --> 00:57:31.400
<v Speaker 1>And what it made the book really saucy was all

1065
00:57:31.480 --> 00:57:35.320
<v Speaker 1>of that class stuff, and you know, and they cut

1066
00:57:35.440 --> 00:57:38.400
<v Speaker 1>all that out of the TV series until much much later,

1067
00:57:38.519 --> 00:57:41.440
<v Speaker 1>several seasons and so but in the Heat but you

1068
00:57:41.480 --> 00:57:44.039
<v Speaker 1>can do it, and you should and it makes it memorable,

1069
00:57:44.119 --> 00:57:46.280
<v Speaker 1>but you got to be kind of brave to deal

1070
00:57:46.320 --> 00:57:48.559
<v Speaker 1>with all of that stuff. Dano, by the way, was

1071
00:57:48.599 --> 00:57:51.519
<v Speaker 1>in Messiah of the Evil, which I can't remember what

1072
00:57:52.000 --> 00:57:54.559
<v Speaker 1>year that came out, but he plays He plays the

1073
00:57:54.599 --> 00:57:56.840
<v Speaker 1>father of the main character is trying to this woman's

1074
00:57:56.840 --> 00:57:59.880
<v Speaker 1>trying to figure out why there's this weird zombie outbreak

1075
00:58:00.039 --> 00:58:03.000
<v Speaker 1>in California, and he shows up halfway through just to

1076
00:58:03.039 --> 00:58:05.079
<v Speaker 1>warn her to leave. And he's just it's not even

1077
00:58:05.079 --> 00:58:08.920
<v Speaker 1>a very big part, and he's so memorable. He just

1078
00:58:09.239 --> 00:58:13.159
<v Speaker 1>elevates everything that he's in. And yes, he is memorialized

1079
00:58:13.199 --> 00:58:16.280
<v Speaker 1>now as a robot at Disneyland or wherever.

1080
00:58:15.960 --> 00:58:19.760
<v Speaker 2>Wherever Robo Lincoln Lincoln.

1081
00:58:22.039 --> 00:58:24.239
<v Speaker 1>I mean, gosh, would it be neat by the way,

1082
00:58:24.440 --> 00:58:27.880
<v Speaker 1>if there were an emergency at Disneyland, and so robo

1083
00:58:27.960 --> 00:58:31.280
<v Speaker 1>Lincoln comes comes to life at night and goes and

1084
00:58:31.280 --> 00:58:32.800
<v Speaker 1>and and solves it all.

1085
00:58:32.920 --> 00:58:36.519
<v Speaker 3>And it's I think Robo Lincoln should come to life

1086
00:58:36.679 --> 00:58:38.280
<v Speaker 3>and become president.

1087
00:58:38.440 --> 00:58:43.039
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I mean it sounds like it's a j like

1088
00:58:43.199 --> 00:58:45.440
<v Speaker 5>Magnola adjacent what you're talking.

1089
00:58:45.199 --> 00:58:54.880
<v Speaker 1>About, Like, yeah, I was gonna say it's the screwing head. Yeah.

1090
00:58:55.000 --> 00:58:58.880
<v Speaker 1>So anyway, all right, having having but also.

1091
00:58:58.760 --> 00:59:05.960
<v Speaker 5>Watch a film full of animatronics, like all the all

1092
00:59:06.000 --> 00:59:09.800
<v Speaker 5>of the animatronics walk off and they become assassins.

1093
00:59:09.519 --> 00:59:14.639
<v Speaker 3>It's a it's a it's it's a reverse five Nights.

1094
00:59:15.360 --> 00:59:20.840
<v Speaker 3>Instead of being up to evil, they're they're doing uh,

1095
00:59:21.039 --> 00:59:22.320
<v Speaker 3>they're gonna do good.

1096
00:59:22.519 --> 00:59:25.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they just wander around doing good. They break they

1097
00:59:25.719 --> 00:59:28.079
<v Speaker 1>break into Congress and give them a lot of advice

1098
00:59:28.119 --> 00:59:30.840
<v Speaker 1>and how to write legislation. And then yeah, the whole

1099
00:59:30.880 --> 00:59:33.159
<v Speaker 1>of the the idea of the Hall of Presidents just

1100
00:59:33.280 --> 00:59:35.480
<v Speaker 1>wandering off to do good in the land is a

1101
00:59:35.559 --> 00:59:37.320
<v Speaker 1>hilarious is a hilarious idea.

1102
00:59:38.440 --> 00:59:41.840
<v Speaker 5>That's just where my head is. I I just pictured

1103
00:59:41.880 --> 00:59:46.800
<v Speaker 5>an army of Lincoln's killing Nazis or you know, white supremacists.

1104
00:59:46.840 --> 00:59:49.360
<v Speaker 5>Oh my god, oh my god, this army of robo

1105
00:59:49.440 --> 00:59:51.480
<v Speaker 5>Lincoln's has invaded our clan rally.

1106
00:59:54.039 --> 00:59:54.639
<v Speaker 2>I love that.

1107
00:59:54.760 --> 00:59:57.599
<v Speaker 5>I like, I like, I mean, I like the idea

1108
00:59:57.639 --> 01:00:00.679
<v Speaker 5>of doing good. That's probably a better thing. But also

1109
01:00:00.719 --> 01:00:01.239
<v Speaker 5>I would watch.

1110
01:00:04.800 --> 01:00:06.760
<v Speaker 1>You can do both. I guarantee you. We can fit

1111
01:00:06.840 --> 01:00:07.400
<v Speaker 1>all of this in.

1112
01:00:08.559 --> 01:00:11.760
<v Speaker 5>Maybe maybe the Benjamin Franklins go to Congress and help

1113
01:00:11.840 --> 01:00:15.679
<v Speaker 5>and then robo Lincoln's take up their axes an.

1114
01:00:15.599 --> 01:00:19.679
<v Speaker 1>Idea because they also invariably have robo Mark Twain voiced

1115
01:00:19.679 --> 01:00:20.559
<v Speaker 1>by Hal Holbrook.

1116
01:00:20.719 --> 01:00:23.880
<v Speaker 5>And and oh, I think he's the I think robo

1117
01:00:23.960 --> 01:00:25.800
<v Speaker 5>Mark Twain is the one that's fousing.

1118
01:00:25.920 --> 01:00:27.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, he's the lead.

1119
01:00:27.079 --> 01:00:31.719
<v Speaker 5>I think he's the general, remarks as the robo Lincoln

1120
01:00:32.280 --> 01:00:35.199
<v Speaker 5>just pull uh the robot.

1121
01:00:35.400 --> 01:00:37.400
<v Speaker 4>Isn't there a Lincoln Vampire hunter already?

1122
01:00:37.440 --> 01:00:41.320
<v Speaker 1>So just there is. But luckily it's about ten years back,

1123
01:00:41.320 --> 01:00:42.360
<v Speaker 1>so we got plenty of room.

1124
01:00:43.480 --> 01:00:47.920
<v Speaker 2>We actually did that one on the show a million

1125
01:00:48.159 --> 01:00:48.800
<v Speaker 2>years ago.

1126
01:00:49.559 --> 01:00:56.480
<v Speaker 3>Yes, all right, I met somebody at a baby birthday

1127
01:00:56.519 --> 01:01:03.000
<v Speaker 3>party who their husband and does a horror movie podcast,

1128
01:01:03.400 --> 01:01:05.880
<v Speaker 3>and she was saying, Oh, yeah, he's got it. He's

1129
01:01:05.920 --> 01:01:08.920
<v Speaker 3>got a he's got a lot of episodes. He's he's

1130
01:01:08.960 --> 01:01:12.920
<v Speaker 3>just done like his hundredth episode. And I I swear

1131
01:01:13.000 --> 01:01:16.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm not a prick, but in the back of my mind,

1132
01:01:16.519 --> 01:01:17.840
<v Speaker 3>I was like, Oh, how quaint.

1133
01:01:20.119 --> 01:01:23.360
<v Speaker 5>No, you got a leadist in your mind about the show.

1134
01:01:24.599 --> 01:01:26.039
<v Speaker 5>I don't know, that's funny.

1135
01:01:26.199 --> 01:01:31.920
<v Speaker 3>I felt slightly ashamed, but not so ashamed that I

1136
01:01:32.079 --> 01:01:34.079
<v Speaker 3>won't be confessional about it.

1137
01:01:36.119 --> 01:01:36.519
<v Speaker 2>The uh.

1138
01:01:37.239 --> 01:01:41.039
<v Speaker 1>By the way, Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter. So our friends

1139
01:01:41.079 --> 01:01:43.239
<v Speaker 1>over at Mounster really Happy Hour did an episode on that,

1140
01:01:43.480 --> 01:01:47.119
<v Speaker 1>and I think the funniest thing was hearing them remark

1141
01:01:47.320 --> 01:01:49.519
<v Speaker 1>in the kind of sense they were like, you know,

1142
01:01:49.880 --> 01:01:52.880
<v Speaker 1>I think the history I'm paraphrasing, but it was like,

1143
01:01:52.920 --> 01:02:00.000
<v Speaker 1>the history is a little problematic in this film.

1144
01:01:57.840 --> 01:02:00.440
<v Speaker 2>That there weren't vampires involved the war.

1145
01:02:00.679 --> 01:02:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, actually it's less that and more that they just

1146
01:02:03.360 --> 01:02:05.639
<v Speaker 1>kind of jumbled up a whole bunch of stuff involving

1147
01:02:05.679 --> 01:02:08.039
<v Speaker 1>both the Civil War and the President of the United States.

1148
01:02:08.119 --> 01:02:12.360
<v Speaker 3>And I remember, I just remember that that movie was

1149
01:02:12.599 --> 01:02:16.440
<v Speaker 3>very divisive when we recorded an episode on it like

1150
01:02:16.519 --> 01:02:21.519
<v Speaker 3>that was like strangely heated. I may be misremembering, but

1151
01:02:21.559 --> 01:02:25.559
<v Speaker 3>I remember that Tony and I liked it, and you

1152
01:02:25.639 --> 01:02:28.599
<v Speaker 3>and Julia very much did not like it, and I

1153
01:02:28.639 --> 01:02:32.119
<v Speaker 3>and I remember that being one of the more device like.

1154
01:02:32.079 --> 01:02:33.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember.

1155
01:02:33.679 --> 01:02:37.079
<v Speaker 2>I could be mis remembering. I could be misremembering.

1156
01:02:37.239 --> 01:02:39.800
<v Speaker 3>I kind of want to go back and re listen

1157
01:02:39.880 --> 01:02:44.039
<v Speaker 3>to it now, even though I'm sure even well, like

1158
01:02:44.639 --> 01:02:48.519
<v Speaker 3>when I do go back and revisit our old episodes, inevitably,

1159
01:02:48.639 --> 01:02:51.599
<v Speaker 3>I am always shocked at how terrible the sound on

1160
01:02:51.639 --> 01:02:57.079
<v Speaker 3>my recording sounds. But you know, and hopefully it's better now.

1161
01:02:57.239 --> 01:03:01.039
<v Speaker 5>But you get to four score, the less you remember, Jason.

1162
01:03:00.960 --> 01:03:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, Yeah, I'm I don't know.

1163
01:03:05.639 --> 01:03:08.559
<v Speaker 2>There were top hats and there was an axe, and

1164
01:03:08.639 --> 01:03:09.000
<v Speaker 2>there was.

1165
01:03:08.960 --> 01:03:12.159
<v Speaker 1>Probably a lot more pretentious several hundred episodes ago.

1166
01:03:12.800 --> 01:03:17.039
<v Speaker 3>Uh, once you, once you've done Vampire Hookers, all bets

1167
01:03:17.079 --> 01:03:17.480
<v Speaker 3>are off.

1168
01:03:18.320 --> 01:03:18.519
<v Speaker 2>See.

1169
01:03:18.519 --> 01:03:22.320
<v Speaker 1>The funny thing is that's why there's no consistency in

1170
01:03:22.360 --> 01:03:25.360
<v Speaker 1>my in me on this show, because I'll at once

1171
01:03:25.440 --> 01:03:29.400
<v Speaker 1>go this Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter is preposterous, and then

1172
01:03:29.840 --> 01:03:33.079
<v Speaker 1>like two weeks later Ago Vampire Hookers actually has a

1173
01:03:33.079 --> 01:03:34.079
<v Speaker 1>lot to recommend it.

1174
01:03:36.679 --> 01:03:41.119
<v Speaker 3>I think, I think, I think that I think that

1175
01:03:41.119 --> 01:03:46.159
<v Speaker 3>that also speaks to horror phantom at large in a way.

1176
01:03:47.079 --> 01:03:49.719
<v Speaker 5>Yes, I'm with you that.

1177
01:03:49.960 --> 01:03:53.079
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it did have John Kerry. So that's but

1178
01:03:53.400 --> 01:03:57.880
<v Speaker 1>all right, getting back to for for those like three

1179
01:03:57.920 --> 01:04:00.760
<v Speaker 1>listeners who are left, getting back to the Moon of

1180
01:04:00.760 --> 01:04:03.840
<v Speaker 1>the Wolf, we should get our final thoughts and then

1181
01:04:04.039 --> 01:04:08.559
<v Speaker 1>go to endorsements. So Drew, Gosh, this was fun to

1182
01:04:08.599 --> 01:04:11.719
<v Speaker 1>talk about. Give me your final thoughts on Moon of

1183
01:04:11.760 --> 01:04:12.159
<v Speaker 1>the Wolf.

1184
01:04:12.480 --> 01:04:16.880
<v Speaker 3>I am glad that we came back on this obscure

1185
01:04:17.559 --> 01:04:23.719
<v Speaker 3>nineteen seventy two TV movie because somehow, when we started

1186
01:04:23.760 --> 01:04:26.960
<v Speaker 3>coming to this discussion about what our first episode back,

1187
01:04:27.519 --> 01:04:31.679
<v Speaker 3>I somehow decided I was going to send a fourteen

1188
01:04:31.960 --> 01:04:36.000
<v Speaker 3>movie long list to everyone on our group chat, and

1189
01:04:36.159 --> 01:04:40.920
<v Speaker 3>after much debate, we somehow ended on this movie. And yet,

1190
01:04:41.039 --> 01:04:45.039
<v Speaker 3>and yet, through that somewhat convoluted system, this ended up

1191
01:04:45.119 --> 01:04:49.119
<v Speaker 3>being the right decision because this conversation was a joy,

1192
01:04:49.599 --> 01:04:54.159
<v Speaker 3>and I think that is what I needed tonight of

1193
01:04:54.199 --> 01:05:02.079
<v Speaker 3>all nights, is to dissect this wonderfully wacky TV movie with.

1194
01:05:02.159 --> 01:05:08.360
<v Speaker 5>Y'all thinks like trust the system, system work from the

1195
01:05:08.360 --> 01:05:11.360
<v Speaker 5>outside it may look like chaos, but look look where

1196
01:05:11.400 --> 01:05:12.199
<v Speaker 5>we always get.

1197
01:05:13.239 --> 01:05:14.760
<v Speaker 1>Julia, what are your thoughts.

1198
01:05:15.320 --> 01:05:19.519
<v Speaker 4>I think this has been a fun conversation. Yeah, I

1199
01:05:19.519 --> 01:05:23.480
<v Speaker 4>think the characters are interesting. Uh, but I do feel

1200
01:05:23.599 --> 01:05:28.320
<v Speaker 4>the TV movie of the weakness of this film. I

1201
01:05:28.400 --> 01:05:31.480
<v Speaker 4>do think that there's it's got a lot going for it,

1202
01:05:31.880 --> 01:05:34.920
<v Speaker 4>apparently more than the Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, given what

1203
01:05:35.079 --> 01:05:39.119
<v Speaker 4>Drew has said that we said about it, and uh yeah,

1204
01:05:39.119 --> 01:05:41.360
<v Speaker 4>but it's mostly just been great to be back with

1205
01:05:41.400 --> 01:05:45.559
<v Speaker 4>you guys chatting since we've been away for a summer hiatus.

1206
01:05:46.039 --> 01:05:47.719
<v Speaker 4>So it's been it's been.

1207
01:05:47.599 --> 01:05:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Good, wonderful, Thank you very much. By the way, can

1208
01:05:50.000 --> 01:05:54.320
<v Speaker 1>you actually build address with a macrome chest? Is that

1209
01:05:54.400 --> 01:05:55.280
<v Speaker 1>a thing that?

1210
01:05:55.719 --> 01:05:59.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? Yeah, they just they just whatever you call it,

1211
01:05:59.679 --> 01:06:02.599
<v Speaker 4>and it I guess the little I really do feel

1212
01:06:02.639 --> 01:06:05.719
<v Speaker 4>like the costume people just made her dresses because they

1213
01:06:05.719 --> 01:06:08.440
<v Speaker 4>do seem very you know, like straight out of a

1214
01:06:08.480 --> 01:06:11.559
<v Speaker 4>pattern book. But yeah, I think that they macro made

1215
01:06:11.639 --> 01:06:14.800
<v Speaker 4>that little chest piece and then just sewed it onto them.

1216
01:06:14.599 --> 01:06:18.159
<v Speaker 1>Oh cool, I mean that's just really neat. I like

1217
01:06:18.239 --> 01:06:21.199
<v Speaker 1>all that stuff. Okay, Tony, what about you?

1218
01:06:21.440 --> 01:06:24.239
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I mean, if I think it's obvious, I really

1219
01:06:24.519 --> 01:06:27.840
<v Speaker 5>like the setting, and I think it's yeah, the budget

1220
01:06:27.880 --> 01:06:30.000
<v Speaker 5>is what it is because you do a lot off camera,

1221
01:06:30.079 --> 01:06:32.800
<v Speaker 5>but I was I just really dug it. I think

1222
01:06:32.840 --> 01:06:35.039
<v Speaker 5>you could add in a bunch of different features that

1223
01:06:35.320 --> 01:06:37.320
<v Speaker 5>kind of feel like this, and you'd have a whole

1224
01:06:37.440 --> 01:06:41.239
<v Speaker 5>night of deep Southern mystery and loathing if you want to.

1225
01:06:41.960 --> 01:06:45.599
<v Speaker 5>And that's good. But I you know, it's probably the

1226
01:06:45.679 --> 01:06:48.960
<v Speaker 5>fact that I'm older, but there's a certain there's There's

1227
01:06:49.000 --> 01:06:51.679
<v Speaker 5>also the aspect of how much this is a character

1228
01:06:51.719 --> 01:06:55.360
<v Speaker 5>actor driven film that I probably have some nostalgia for,

1229
01:06:55.639 --> 01:06:57.280
<v Speaker 5>with a bunch of character actors.

1230
01:06:56.920 --> 01:06:58.519
<v Speaker 1>That I recognize.

1231
01:06:59.079 --> 01:07:03.039
<v Speaker 5>But saying that everybody's just super solid and everybody elevates

1232
01:07:03.239 --> 01:07:07.840
<v Speaker 5>this in unexpected ways. I'm with Drew that I'm glad

1233
01:07:07.840 --> 01:07:10.400
<v Speaker 5>that we picked this one because it kind of came

1234
01:07:10.440 --> 01:07:12.760
<v Speaker 5>out of left field and it was the one I

1235
01:07:12.760 --> 01:07:15.599
<v Speaker 5>didn't know I needed to see, And yet here we are, wonderful.

1236
01:07:15.760 --> 01:07:16.559
<v Speaker 5>I really enjoy it.

1237
01:07:16.599 --> 01:07:21.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm really glad that we watched it as well. I really, honestly,

1238
01:07:21.440 --> 01:07:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I am just thrilled anytime we can return to nineteen

1239
01:07:25.000 --> 01:07:27.880
<v Speaker 1>seventies TV movies. For some reason, this is a special

1240
01:07:27.960 --> 01:07:28.840
<v Speaker 1>happy thing for me.

1241
01:07:28.960 --> 01:07:31.119
<v Speaker 2>So there we go and.

1242
01:07:31.039 --> 01:07:34.800
<v Speaker 1>That's good enough for me. Let's get our endorsements. I'm

1243
01:07:34.880 --> 01:07:37.800
<v Speaker 1>dying to know, and to be honest, I'm not even

1244
01:07:37.800 --> 01:07:39.400
<v Speaker 1>sure what I'm going to say. It's like we're ordering

1245
01:07:39.440 --> 01:07:41.519
<v Speaker 1>at a restaurant and I'm just hoping that I'll know

1246
01:07:41.559 --> 01:07:43.920
<v Speaker 1>what I'm going to say by the time the white

1247
01:07:43.960 --> 01:07:46.920
<v Speaker 1>person gets around to me. Drew, what do you have

1248
01:07:46.960 --> 01:07:51.199
<v Speaker 1>for us? Well, well, you just got here from comic Con,

1249
01:07:51.320 --> 01:07:52.280
<v Speaker 1>so you might not know either.

1250
01:07:52.719 --> 01:07:58.719
<v Speaker 3>I well, no, I want to recommend a graphic novel

1251
01:07:59.039 --> 01:08:05.599
<v Speaker 3>called by Eric Powell of The Goon fame, But it

1252
01:08:05.800 --> 01:08:07.480
<v Speaker 3>is not like The Goon.

1253
01:08:07.719 --> 01:08:10.920
<v Speaker 2>I have to stress that it is called.

1254
01:08:11.159 --> 01:08:14.960
<v Speaker 3>Look What Eddie Gean Had What Eddie Gean Had Done?

1255
01:08:15.480 --> 01:08:19.439
<v Speaker 3>And as you can guess by the name, it is

1256
01:08:19.920 --> 01:08:27.760
<v Speaker 3>a biographical comic that is about the notorious grave robber

1257
01:08:27.960 --> 01:08:35.560
<v Speaker 3>Cannibal maybe serial killer at Geen and it is one

1258
01:08:35.720 --> 01:08:39.239
<v Speaker 3>of the most disturbing things that I have ever read.

1259
01:08:39.520 --> 01:08:43.800
<v Speaker 3>So your mileage may vary because I am not normally,

1260
01:08:44.119 --> 01:08:47.920
<v Speaker 3>despite my general interest in creepy things, I am not

1261
01:08:48.199 --> 01:08:54.720
<v Speaker 3>always a true crime guy. But this is this is

1262
01:08:54.760 --> 01:08:58.479
<v Speaker 3>a part of a series that Powell is doing. He

1263
01:08:58.600 --> 01:09:02.359
<v Speaker 3>actually just put out out the second part, which is

1264
01:09:02.800 --> 01:09:08.600
<v Speaker 3>about Frederick Wortham, the infamous psychiatrists that had people burning

1265
01:09:08.800 --> 01:09:13.800
<v Speaker 3>comic books in the streets, and that one's called Doctor Worthless,

1266
01:09:13.880 --> 01:09:17.319
<v Speaker 3>and I'm going to eventually get around to getting that

1267
01:09:17.399 --> 01:09:26.760
<v Speaker 3>one is as well. But it's incredibly creepy. The artwork

1268
01:09:27.000 --> 01:09:31.640
<v Speaker 3>is beautiful. If you are interested in true crime, I

1269
01:09:31.680 --> 01:09:34.239
<v Speaker 3>think you will like it. But even if you are

1270
01:09:34.760 --> 01:09:39.159
<v Speaker 3>just have a general interest in the macabre and pop culture,

1271
01:09:40.079 --> 01:09:46.600
<v Speaker 3>I think that you'll find it interesting. But also I

1272
01:09:46.680 --> 01:09:51.119
<v Speaker 3>want to recommend that everyone listening to this podcast go

1273
01:09:51.239 --> 01:09:54.800
<v Speaker 3>to their local bookstore or local comic book shop. Take

1274
01:09:54.840 --> 01:09:59.359
<v Speaker 3>a moment, and you should say, hey, clerk working behind

1275
01:09:59.359 --> 01:10:02.239
<v Speaker 3>the counter, no doubt, working hard. I would like to

1276
01:10:02.479 --> 01:10:06.640
<v Speaker 3>order a copy of the Halloween man Omnibus Volume one

1277
01:10:07.239 --> 01:10:10.279
<v Speaker 3>from Red five Comics, because that is coming out on

1278
01:10:10.359 --> 01:10:14.640
<v Speaker 3>September thirtieth. So I am now full on in the

1279
01:10:14.720 --> 01:10:17.960
<v Speaker 3>hype train right now, and I have.

1280
01:10:18.039 --> 01:10:22.600
<v Speaker 2>Seen this thing now. I saw copies of it at

1281
01:10:22.640 --> 01:10:25.880
<v Speaker 2>San Diego Comic Con. It is beautiful.

1282
01:10:26.520 --> 01:10:31.279
<v Speaker 3>All the pages have been remastered, like the coloring and

1283
01:10:31.359 --> 01:10:35.600
<v Speaker 3>the artwork has been you know, tuned up, so like

1284
01:10:36.119 --> 01:10:39.279
<v Speaker 3>with you know, it's it's it's hard to describe. But

1285
01:10:39.680 --> 01:10:45.159
<v Speaker 3>it's the same coloring but just refined to a point

1286
01:10:45.199 --> 01:10:49.760
<v Speaker 3>and the same thing with the lettering. So this is

1287
01:10:49.800 --> 01:10:53.720
<v Speaker 3>the best these pages have ever looked in print. And

1288

1315
01:12:25.000 --> 01:12:27.000
<v Speaker 4>Josh Brolin. It is so scary.

1316
01:12:27.239 --> 01:12:27.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh.

1317
01:12:27.880 --> 01:12:30.279
<v Speaker 4>We were talking about how scary it was. I couldn't

1318
01:12:30.279 --> 01:12:32.720
<v Speaker 4>sleep last night. I'm like dragging today because I had

1319
01:12:33.399 --> 01:12:37.279
<v Speaker 4>not sleep after watching it. So yes, those are my two.

1320
01:12:37.119 --> 01:12:40.600
<v Speaker 1>Fantastic Tony, what do you got. I've been watching a lot.

1321
01:12:40.439 --> 01:12:43.199
<v Speaker 5>Of TV, and you know there's movies I've seen that

1322
01:12:43.239 --> 01:12:46.279
<v Speaker 5>I really enjoyed. We actually, we actually enjoyed the New

1323
01:12:46.359 --> 01:12:50.000
<v Speaker 5>Naked Gun. It was really funny. It was fun to

1324
01:12:50.119 --> 01:12:54.119
<v Speaker 5>version good crowd. The draft House has also been showing

1325
01:12:55.000 --> 01:12:58.800
<v Speaker 5>a Samurai the new game Ghost to Go Tie, the

1326
01:12:58.880 --> 01:13:02.840
<v Speaker 5>sequel to Ghost Tushima is coming out, and we've been

1327
01:13:03.560 --> 01:13:09.119
<v Speaker 5>showing Samurai movies. So I got to see the first

1328
01:13:09.159 --> 01:13:13.359
<v Speaker 5>Zatuichi movie in the theater, and this past week was

1329
01:13:13.399 --> 01:13:16.479
<v Speaker 5>Lady Snowblood and I really I recommend that in the

1330
01:13:16.479 --> 01:13:18.920
<v Speaker 5>Stray Cat Rocks movies. Even though they're kind of pinky

1331
01:13:19.000 --> 01:13:21.439
<v Speaker 5>violence movies. I don't I don't know if they're for everyone,

1332
01:13:21.560 --> 01:13:25.600
<v Speaker 5>but you know, in accuracies in Lady Snowblood is in that.

1333
01:13:25.880 --> 01:13:29.039
<v Speaker 5>I think Arrow may have still had the Stray cat

1334
01:13:29.119 --> 01:13:33.479
<v Speaker 5>Rocks set in print. But I just I've been really enjoying.

1335
01:13:33.600 --> 01:13:35.800
<v Speaker 5>There's been really good crowds. It's kind of cool to

1336
01:13:35.840 --> 01:13:39.960
<v Speaker 5>see Samurai cinema. They're gonna do Thirteen Assassins, they're gonna

1337
01:13:39.960 --> 01:13:43.199
<v Speaker 5>do Lone Wolf and Cub and then I'm linking back.

1338
01:13:43.279 --> 01:13:47.039
<v Speaker 5>They're also doing Ron so I think it's through all

1339
01:13:47.079 --> 01:13:51.880
<v Speaker 5>the Criterion. You know, Janis Productions nice, so they looked. Man,

1340
01:13:51.920 --> 01:13:55.840
<v Speaker 5>it was beautiful to see Lady Snowblood on a big

1341
01:13:55.880 --> 01:13:58.560
<v Speaker 5>screen with a good crowd. So I do recommend, if

1342
01:13:58.560 --> 01:14:03.279
<v Speaker 5>you're like minded, check out the Samurai series that's going

1343
01:14:03.319 --> 01:14:05.560
<v Speaker 5>on at the Draft House. And if you can't catch that,

1344
01:14:05.680 --> 01:14:07.960
<v Speaker 5>then definitely pick up the Criterion ones and you know,

1345
01:14:08.000 --> 01:14:11.159
<v Speaker 5>do your own screenings at home. I've also been enjoyed

1346
01:14:11.159 --> 01:14:14.760
<v Speaker 5>the new season of Twisted Metal. They finally go into

1347
01:14:14.960 --> 01:14:19.239
<v Speaker 5>the in San via the video game, and I think,

1348
01:14:19.560 --> 01:14:21.439
<v Speaker 5>I don't know, I didn't expect it to work, but

1349
01:14:22.359 --> 01:14:24.880
<v Speaker 5>it's actually I really like. It's got a good cast

1350
01:14:24.920 --> 01:14:28.119
<v Speaker 5>and I really like what they're doing, even though it's

1351
01:14:28.159 --> 01:14:30.800
<v Speaker 5>you know, over the top and bloody, so maybe not

1352
01:14:31.000 --> 01:14:32.039
<v Speaker 5>for everyone.

1353
01:14:31.640 --> 01:14:32.159
<v Speaker 1>But it is.

1354
01:14:32.520 --> 01:14:37.000
<v Speaker 5>I've been really enjoying Twisted Metal as well. There's some

1355
01:14:37.039 --> 01:14:39.359
<v Speaker 5>screeners I need to catch up on too, so hopefully

1356
01:14:39.359 --> 01:14:42.159
<v Speaker 5>I'll have some recommendations next time as I catch up

1357
01:14:42.199 --> 01:14:45.600
<v Speaker 5>on some of that stuff. But yeah, that's been that's

1358
01:14:45.640 --> 01:14:48.920
<v Speaker 5>been me as well as just some random Discothech Media

1359
01:14:49.479 --> 01:14:52.640
<v Speaker 5>puts out a lot of old school anime, so I've

1360
01:14:52.640 --> 01:14:57.000
<v Speaker 5>been also revisiting the eighties nice wise and that's that's

1361
01:14:57.039 --> 01:15:00.439
<v Speaker 5>always good. This latest one SBT Lasner. Oh, and I've

1362
01:15:00.760 --> 01:15:04.039
<v Speaker 5>also Hulu has a Macross series and I just finished

1363
01:15:04.239 --> 01:15:08.159
<v Speaker 5>Macross Frontier and I thought that was really solid. So

1364
01:15:08.920 --> 01:15:11.600
<v Speaker 5>I'm all over the map these days awesome.

1365
01:15:12.560 --> 01:15:15.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to sign on to everything that Julia said

1366
01:15:15.039 --> 01:15:18.520
<v Speaker 1>because we've been hanging out a lot and we went

1367
01:15:18.560 --> 01:15:24.159
<v Speaker 1>to Mulin Rouge. I actually I enjoyed this like even

1368
01:15:24.199 --> 01:15:28.640
<v Speaker 1>more than the film, and I was just really just

1369
01:15:28.720 --> 01:15:32.319
<v Speaker 1>really moved by it and then weapons I was jumping

1370
01:15:32.319 --> 01:15:35.000
<v Speaker 1>out of my seat. It was so scary, I mean, honestly,

1371
01:15:35.319 --> 01:15:40.439
<v Speaker 1>like embarrassingly going like making noises and jumping like it was.

1372
01:15:40.680 --> 01:15:44.159
<v Speaker 1>It was a really solid jump scare movie and I

1373
01:15:45.000 --> 01:15:46.159
<v Speaker 1>seldom encountered that, Like.

1374
01:15:46.159 --> 01:15:48.640
<v Speaker 4>The I didn't have my own popcorn, so I knocked

1375
01:15:48.680 --> 01:15:49.960
<v Speaker 4>over my daughter's popcorn.

1376
01:15:53.319 --> 01:15:55.199
<v Speaker 1>Like the last time I went to a movie that

1377
01:15:55.279 --> 01:15:59.239
<v Speaker 1>made me jump scare like that was The Nighthouse, which

1378
01:15:59.239 --> 01:16:02.359
<v Speaker 1>has got to be like three years and so this

1379
01:16:02.560 --> 01:16:08.359
<v Speaker 1>was this was really really solid and yeah, so cool. Well,

1380
01:16:08.720 --> 01:16:10.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm so excited we got a chance to come back

1381
01:16:11.199 --> 01:16:15.319
<v Speaker 1>and start out with a bang, exactly where I love

1382
01:16:15.399 --> 01:16:18.199
<v Speaker 1>to be. I'm so happy that we watched the nineteen

1383
01:16:18.239 --> 01:16:20.680
<v Speaker 1>seventies made for a TV film And I'm not the

1384
01:16:20.720 --> 01:16:23.239
<v Speaker 1>one who came up with the idea. I that just

1385
01:16:23.479 --> 01:16:28.840
<v Speaker 1>that's a gift. It's manna from heaven. I definitely am,

1386
01:16:29.279 --> 01:16:33.039
<v Speaker 1>honestly because I always feel yeah, because I hate to

1387
01:16:33.079 --> 01:16:35.239
<v Speaker 1>foist these things on you, but I'm happy when somebody

1388
01:16:35.319 --> 01:16:36.319
<v Speaker 1>else voices.

1389
01:16:36.720 --> 01:16:40.399
<v Speaker 3>This time we can we can all blame me and

1390
01:16:40.520 --> 01:16:42.560
<v Speaker 3>my extensive list making.

1391
01:16:42.840 --> 01:16:47.399
<v Speaker 1>I guess I love it. So I'm I'm super excited.

1395
01:17:01.399 --> 01:17:05.960

1396
