The Apartment / Bunnahabhain 12

The Apartment / Bunnahabhain 12

Bob and Brad continue their mini-series of Best Picture winners with the 1950 backstage drama All About Eve, and boy do they have some hot takes today. Brad comes in hot with an "I don't like this movie" review that threatens to derail the whole episode, but eventually our hosts do find points of agreement.

Meanwhile, they sip on Old Ezra 7 Barrel Strength, a fan-favorite bourbon, and this time it's Bob's turn for a negative review almost as fiery as the whiskey itself.

world a peek into the sleazy
world of high class.

apartment.

This is the film and whiskey

7
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:44,600
podcast.
Welcome to the film and whiskey

8
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,600
podcast, where each week, we
review a classic movie and a

9
00:00:47,608 --> 00:00:51,700
glass of whiskey.
I'm Bob book, I'm Brad G and

10
00:00:51,700 --> 00:00:56,100
this week we are looking at the
1960 Best Picture Winner, Billy

11
00:00:56,100 --> 00:00:59,900
Wilder's, the apartment Brad.
I have been waiting to talk.

12
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,599
About this movie for years.
And I purposely did not put it

13
00:01:04,599 --> 00:01:08,700
in our first few seasons because
I you're still a wild card, man.

14
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:10,800
You're such a wild card.
I never know what you're going

15
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,900
to think of a movie.
The way you said that have you

16
00:01:13,900 --> 00:01:17,700
just like never spoken of this
movie a single time.

17
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,900
You've just like watched it and
know I've a kylin I've just been

18
00:01:20,900 --> 00:01:22,500
running on the journal, your
thoughts.

19
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:24,600
I've been running down the
street just like shaking people

20
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,000
and say have you seen it?
Have you seen the other are not

21
00:01:28,300 --> 00:01:30,400
know.
Honestly Brad this is Is this is

22
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,800
one of my favorite films of all
time and watching it again.

23
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,900
I you know, I haven't washed it
since we started doing the

24
00:01:35,900 --> 00:01:38,100
podcast because I wanted to wait
and watch it with the more

25
00:01:38,100 --> 00:01:40,500
critical eye.
Again, I can't wait to get into

26
00:01:40,500 --> 00:01:43,600
talking about it.
I sincerely hope you liked it,

27
00:01:43,900 --> 00:01:46,200
but before we get into any of
those questions, the most

28
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,100
important question, Brad, had
you seen had you heard of the

29
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:53,300
movie, the apartment prior to
watching it for our podcast,

30
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,100
Bro?
You've got me on two weeks in a

31
00:01:55,100 --> 00:01:58,000
row of movies that I'd never
even heard of, man.

32
00:01:58,500 --> 00:01:59,800
You know, I'm kind of surprised
you.

33
00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:02,300
I heard of this one especially
since you have been such a big

34
00:02:02,300 --> 00:02:05,900
fan of the to Billy Wilder
movies that we've done to this

35
00:02:05,900 --> 00:02:07,100
point.
I thought maybe you would have

36
00:02:07,100 --> 00:02:09,500
gone and looked kind of looked
through his filmography at some

37
00:02:09,500 --> 00:02:14,400
point but bro, know if we win
I'm taking minimal effort some

38
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,000
sort of cinephile, Didi's, get
degrees.

39
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:22,900
That's dude, I gotta say man, is
we got the same piece of papers.

40
00:02:23,300 --> 00:02:26,900
That's right.
All right, so you had not even

41
00:02:26,900 --> 00:02:29,000
heard of the apartment.
I'm really glad that you went

42
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,600
into this kind of old and I am
waiting with baited breath to

43
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,500
hear what you thought of it.
Brad, why don't you just give us

44
00:02:35,500 --> 00:02:37,800
kind of initial Impressions on
the movie?

45
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,100
What do you think of it?
I, you know, if All About Eve is

46
00:02:41,100 --> 00:02:44,000
one of the most underwhelming
Best Picture winners ever.

47
00:02:44,500 --> 00:02:48,600
I would have to put the
apartment in, probably, like, I

48
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,600
don't know the top 20 to 30
percent of Best Picture winners,

49
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,500
I've ever seen.
There you go, like it's solid.

50
00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:01,200
I like, I can 100% understand
why this Back best picture.

51
00:03:01,500 --> 00:03:03,800
You know, I think if you put it
up against some of the other

52
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,700
greats, it would, it would
clearly lose.

53
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,800
But in the year where, you know,
obviously I don't know what the

54
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,400
heck was going on in cinema in
1960, but in a year where there

55
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,800
weren't any other like, massive
contenders, this is just I think

56
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:22,900
it's just one of the best films
comedic dramas I've ever seen in

57
00:03:22,908 --> 00:03:25,100
my life and more emphasis on the
drama.

58
00:03:25,700 --> 00:03:28,600
You know the comedic elements.
Just barely lighten it up enough

59
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,000
to make it almost feel like real
life.

60
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:33,300
Yeah.
More than like a drama.

61
00:03:33,300 --> 00:03:34,600
Does that make sense?
Absolutely.

62
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,900
And Brad I would, I don't want
to correct you right off the bat

63
00:03:36,900 --> 00:03:38,600
here.
But you did have some idea of

64
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,700
what was going on in cinema, in
the year 1960, because you and I

65
00:03:42,900 --> 00:03:46,000
watched Alfred Hitchcock's
Psycho just last season and that

66
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,600
was the other, you know, kind of
really big popular controversial

67
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,700
movie that came out in the year
1960.

68
00:03:52,100 --> 00:03:54,000
So, you know, this is better
than psycho.

69
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,300
Just looking at those two movies
side-by-side, I really do think

70
00:03:58,300 --> 00:04:00,600
that this might be kind of an
underrated Needed year for

71
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,400
Cinema, in terms of really kind
of pushing the medium forward.

72
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,200
And talking about things that
hadn't been talked about, you

73
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,400
know, just from Some Like It Hot
to this movie, I feel like Billy

74
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,800
Wilder, really took a deep dive
into some themes that you, you

75
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:19,000
just didn't see explored in
mainstream entertainment in that

76
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,700
time period.
Yeah, I mean you're jumping in

77
00:04:21,700 --> 00:04:26,700
here with like really heavy
themes of infidelity of suicide

78
00:04:27,100 --> 00:04:32,100
of a man trying to On his way to
the top, I guess.

79
00:04:32,100 --> 00:04:35,900
And you just see all these
things, kind of crashing into

80
00:04:35,900 --> 00:04:39,400
one another, you know, all in
order to tell a simple love

81
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,300
story.
But I just can't imagine this

82
00:04:42,300 --> 00:04:44,800
coming out in 1960.
Honestly, Bob, as I was watching

83
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,400
this, I had two main thoughts
and I'll get to the second one

84
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,500
eventually.
But my first, main thought was

85
00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:56,300
this, if you have ever watched
the TV show, Mad Men, the entire

86
00:04:56,300 --> 00:04:58,800
show was based off of this
movie.

87
00:04:59,900 --> 00:05:01,300
But have you ever watched mad I
have?

88
00:05:01,300 --> 00:05:03,600
Yeah, yeah I mean tell me that
I'm wrong.

89
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,000
No, I will show was based off
the whole vibe is just it's

90
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,500
right here.
The blueprint was laid.

91
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,400
Yeah.
And so I think that what you see

92
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:16,700
here is, I don't want to call it
like an expose but I think that

93
00:05:16,700 --> 00:05:21,300
what Wilder was doing was just
this criticism of like men who

94
00:05:21,300 --> 00:05:24,900
are in power and think that they
can get whatever they want and

95
00:05:24,900 --> 00:05:29,600
he did that by putting this
unassuming nice guy kind of a

96
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:30,400
guy.
Against them.

97
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,000
And in the end, the nice guy
wins.

98
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,900
Yeah.
And he's not a sleaze ball, and

99
00:05:34,900 --> 00:05:40,800
he gets the girl, and it's just
a really cute unique and

100
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,700
surprisingly deep film.
Well, before we get any further

101
00:05:43,707 --> 00:05:46,900
Brad, because my sneaking
suspicion will be that, not many

102
00:05:46,900 --> 00:05:49,400
people will have seen this movie
coming into listening to this

103
00:05:49,407 --> 00:05:53,800
episode, and I already would
wholeheartedly say, go watch

104
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:54,900
this movie, you will not be
disappointed.

105
00:05:54,900 --> 00:05:58,500
I think this is the kind of
movie even like you said, Brad

106
00:05:58,500 --> 00:06:02,200
that you may not I come away
from it, loving it, as much as I

107
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,400
do, where I'm ranking it in like
my top 10 favorite movies ever.

108
00:06:05,900 --> 00:06:08,900
But I don't really know of
anyone that would watch this

109
00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:12,100
movie and walk away.
Not having been entertained.

110
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,700
This just seems like a
crowd-pleasing kind of movie.

111
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,400
Yeah.
I, you know, for a movie that

112
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,800
deals with like, incredibly deep
subjects and honestly is almost

113
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:26,400
gratuitous in the way that it
shows it for 4 1960, you know,

114
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:31,000
which really I would say for
1950s Cinema like Like I would

115
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,300
say this is one of the more
entertaining films we watched in

116
00:06:33,300 --> 00:06:35,800
a while.
Yeah, well I mean like now it's

117
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,600
61 years old and I feel like
some of these scenes especially,

118
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:44,200
I mean truly hold up in 2021 and
we'll get to a pretty harrowing

119
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,900
sequence later on but it
reminded me of a movie that is

120
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,100
more recent and I think actually
this movie may have done it

121
00:06:51,100 --> 00:06:54,500
better but before we get into
all that it is time for us to

122
00:06:54,500 --> 00:06:56,300
talk.
Brad explains.

123
00:06:56,300 --> 00:06:59,000
This is the part of the podcast,
where Brad breaks down the plot

124
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,100
of the movie that he Is just
seen often for the first time.

125
00:07:02,500 --> 00:07:04,200
Obviously that is the case
today.

126
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:05,900
Brad.
As you know, we have

127
00:07:05,900 --> 00:07:10,200
implemented, a strict 60-second
timer on Brad explains this

128
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,500
year.
Can you walk us through the plot

129
00:07:12,500 --> 00:07:15,400
of the movie, the apartment in
under one minute?

130
00:07:16,100 --> 00:07:20,800
Jack Lemmon is a nice guy.
Fred MacMurray is Shirley

131
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,800
MacLaine is in love with the and
he'd ruins her life.

132
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,700
She tried to commit suicide.
Jack, Lemmon saves her.

133
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,700
They fall in love.
Whoo!

134
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,000
Ooh, all right, you did it in 15
seconds.

135
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:37,400
Now I'm gonna, I'm gonna require
you to go a bit deeper because

136
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,600
because the one of the big parts
of this movie is the kind of

137
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,500
like you said, I don't want to
expose, or even satire, but the

138
00:07:44,500 --> 00:07:50,000
portrayal of corporate America
in the late 1950s early 60s.

139
00:07:50,100 --> 00:07:52,500
Like, I don't think you can
really talk about this movie

140
00:07:52,500 --> 00:07:56,500
without talking about the
endless rows and rows of desks

141
00:07:56,500 --> 00:07:59,600
on this floor, that, that Jack
Clemons character Baxter.

142
00:07:59,900 --> 00:08:04,700
Works on like the idea of
corporate America, and these

143
00:08:04,700 --> 00:08:07,500
upper level Executives who think
they're entitled to everything

144
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,800
really kind of permeates the
whole movie.

145
00:08:10,100 --> 00:08:11,500
Oh yeah.
No II called him a.

146
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,200
I thought we all knew that that
was just like code for Corporate

147
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,200
America and America.
Yeah, right on, man.

148
00:08:17,300 --> 00:08:21,500
Absolutely, no.
I honestly, I think that it, I

149
00:08:21,500 --> 00:08:25,600
don't know it as somebody in
2021 watching this film.

150
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,700
I feel like it's almost just
taken for granted that like

151
00:08:30,100 --> 00:08:34,700
High-powered businesses business
executives are just like either

152
00:08:34,700 --> 00:08:38,400
like average to terrible people.
Like I don't know if there's any

153
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,100
of them that are really that
good.

154
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,100
And so there's already such a
distrust of corporate America on

155
00:08:44,100 --> 00:08:50,000
the average citizens end that I
do feel like it dulls the edge

156
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,900
of this movie a little bit, but
I can appreciate the fact that

157
00:08:53,900 --> 00:08:57,600
this is probably one of the
first like honest attempts at

158
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,700
saying, hey, like this isn't
okay.

159
00:08:59,900 --> 00:09:03,400
Like all of these people who are
working in this company are real

160
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,400
people and just because you guys
can go and have your Lover's

161
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:11,500
tryst at this dude's apartment
because he's a bachelor, doesn't

162
00:09:11,500 --> 00:09:15,500
make him worth promoting.
It doesn't make you guys get P.

163
00:09:15,500 --> 00:09:18,900
Like it's just all bad.
All bad all around Brad.

164
00:09:18,900 --> 00:09:21,500
As always.
You continue to be incredibly

165
00:09:21,500 --> 00:09:23,700
eloquent.
It bad all bad.

166
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,900
It's bad for you bad.
All right it's okay.

167
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,800
I do want to jump in here and
kind of Round out, Brad explains

168
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,400
a little bit.
So the the essential plot of the

169
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,300
movie is that Jack.
Lemons character Baxter is kind

170
00:09:37,300 --> 00:09:40,700
of a lower level employee
working for this giant Insurance

171
00:09:40,700 --> 00:09:45,000
firm in New York City and he is
climbing the corporate ladder by

172
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,900
allowing his superiors.
And people in Administration, in

173
00:09:47,900 --> 00:09:51,700
this building, to use his
apartment to have affairs in.

174
00:09:51,900 --> 00:09:55,800
He is lending out his key.
And what I really love about the

175
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,500
place that the movie starts
Brad, is that you can tell from

176
00:09:59,500 --> 00:10:03,000
the Beginning of this movie that
we are coming into this

177
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,300
situation when it's already
spiraling out of control, you

178
00:10:07,300 --> 00:10:09,400
know what I mean?
Like we don't see the first time

179
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,900
Jack Lemmon kind of gives his
apartment over to somebody.

180
00:10:11,900 --> 00:10:15,400
We don't see that slippery
slope, we see Jack Lemmon, you

181
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,800
know, even though the opening
narration where he's talking

182
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,500
about how his apartment, so,
great for a bachelor and you

183
00:10:20,500 --> 00:10:23,800
sound, so chipper, but the way
they're framing it with the

184
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,700
camera, is this, incredibly
lonely?

185
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,400
Like there's just an expanse
around him and Jack Lemon is

186
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,300
just walking down the street
with no one around him and you

187
00:10:33,300 --> 00:10:36,800
can tell that he is already
feeling this intense loneliness

188
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,100
and regret for what he's doing
with his apartment to the point

189
00:10:40,100 --> 00:10:42,400
where, you know, he's basically
been kicked out of his own

190
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:46,100
apartment because his boss needs
to you know have an affair and

191
00:10:46,100 --> 00:10:47,800
he ends up sleeping on a park
bench.

192
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:53,000
And I really liked that Wilder
allows us as the audience to be

193
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,600
dropped right into that
situation when it's already

194
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,600
falling apart and not have to
feel like he needs to walk.

195
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,400
Us through and give us, you
know, tip us off at every

196
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,100
instance like oh, this is bad.
You can just tell from the

197
00:11:06,100 --> 00:11:08,300
beginning.
This guy is in over his head.

198
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,600
One might say that he drops us
and media rests.

199
00:11:13,300 --> 00:11:15,100
That's very true.
Boom.

200
00:11:15,100 --> 00:11:17,000
Brad learned a Latin phrase
today.

201
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,100
Hey man, I learned that like a
while ago.

202
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,100
Now, I love one of my favorite
Parts about the opening and

203
00:11:24,100 --> 00:11:27,000
ending of this film.
I, I love whenever a movie

204
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,500
bookends things, right?
Yeah.

205
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:33,000
And I love that at the start of
this film, you see, Jack Lemmon

206
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,000
get the wrong key.
You know, the dude leaves the

207
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,800
wrong key and it's actually the
key to the executive washroom

208
00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:42,000
but like he gets this key and
it's almost like a symbol of

209
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,800
like, well one day I'll have
this key and it won't just be

210
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,600
accidentally left underneath,
you know, my carpet.

211
00:11:47,900 --> 00:11:50,000
And at the end of the film, what
happens?

212
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,400
He gives him the key to the
executive washroom back so that

213
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:54,800
he can win his love.
Yeah.

214
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,200
And I just I loved how they
bookended this movie with that,

215
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,200
you know, kind of Plot device if
you will, Brad, I feel like we

216
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,900
are slowly, revealing tidbits of
information, about this film to

217
00:12:05,900 --> 00:12:08,600
our listeners.
And I feel like we should

218
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,200
probably just go ahead and
completely spoil the whole

219
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,800
thing.
You know, we do spoilers on this

220
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,000
podcast.
So, if we haven't already given

221
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,800
away enough, we're going to go
ahead and just give the whole

222
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,600
thing away here.
Jack Lemmon is kind of secretly

223
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,800
pining for has a crush on the
elevator girl played by Shirley

224
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,300
MacLaine.
Her name is Miss kubelik and

225
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,300
unbeknownst to Jack.
Lemmon one of the most senior

226
00:12:31,300 --> 00:12:33,300
Executives in the building, the
guy who's in charge of

227
00:12:33,308 --> 00:12:35,800
personnel.
Essentially, the HR, you know,

228
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:41,100
vice president of this company
is having an affair with Miss

229
00:12:41,100 --> 00:12:44,000
cubic and you come to find it
out about halfway through the

230
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,900
movie.
It all kind of clicks into place

231
00:12:46,100 --> 00:12:49,800
for Baxter and the second half
of the movie is him dealing with

232
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,200
the Fallout of before black of a
better term, you know, aiding

233
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,900
and abetting this affair not
just you know the Fallout for

234
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,300
himself and his emotions but
Fallout in terms of what's

235
00:13:01,300 --> 00:13:05,500
happening with with Fran, Miss
kubelik internally and by the

236
00:13:05,500 --> 00:13:08,300
end of the film, you know, he
does he quits the job.

237
00:13:08,500 --> 00:13:12,900
He gets the girl like everything
gets patched up but Brad you

238
00:13:12,900 --> 00:13:14,900
even texted me at one point
today and said you were about

239
00:13:14,900 --> 00:13:18,500
halfway through the movie and
you were right at the scene that

240
00:13:18,500 --> 00:13:21,400
I think is maybe the most
crucial and pivotal scene of the

241
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:26,000
whole movie and what happens is
Jack Lemmon allows his boss to

242
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,400
use the apartment for an affair.
He finds a little pocket mirror

243
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:33,200
that That has been left behind
and he returns it to his boss.

244
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,300
Sheldrake played by Fred
MacMurray, and a few days after

245
00:13:36,300 --> 00:13:38,900
that they're having the office
Christmas party.

246
00:13:38,900 --> 00:13:43,000
And he shows miscue Bullock his
brand new office because he

247
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:47,100
keeps getting promoted
miraculously and he's saying a

248
00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:48,800
look at this incredible office
that I have.

249
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,600
And she pulls out this pocket
mirror and he recognizes that

250
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,600
it's hers because it's cracked
down the middle and it all

251
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,400
clicks into place for him.
He didn't know that she was the

252
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,400
one that his boss was.
Affair with.

253
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:05,200
She doesn't know that he is the
one whose apartment she was in.

254
00:14:05,900 --> 00:14:08,900
Yeah, I mean, what we're talking
about here, Bob is just an

255
00:14:08,900 --> 00:14:11,600
amazing script, right?
And, you know, they're talking

256
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:16,300
and he's shown her his office
and he sees this and he kind of,

257
00:14:16,300 --> 00:14:20,400
you can see his entire tone
shift, you know, which once

258
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,400
again, one of the signs of a
great actor, is their ability to

259
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,900
move, like, facially from one
emotion to the other.

260
00:14:26,900 --> 00:14:31,900
And you see him like, like,
Almost audibly shift in this

261
00:14:31,900 --> 00:14:34,300
tone to like, sadness and
realization.

262
00:14:34,700 --> 00:14:36,400
And she kind of asked him.
What's wrong?

263
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,800
And he tries to catch himself.
He goes, oh well, your mirror.

264
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:44,400
It's broken and she goes.
Yes, I know.

265
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,800
I like it that way, makes me
look the way I feel, and it's

266
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:53,200
just little moments like that
throughout this film that like,

267
00:14:53,700 --> 00:14:56,300
they're not funny.
They're like, they're dramatic,

268
00:14:56,300 --> 00:14:59,000
like, obviously Wilder is known
for his comedy and, you know,

269
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,600
something like Could hot.
It just cuts to the core.

270
00:15:02,700 --> 00:15:07,700
You see the depth of sadness in
Franz heart and in her

271
00:15:07,700 --> 00:15:10,800
self-image and in her
understanding of who she is.

272
00:15:11,300 --> 00:15:15,300
And you just feel that desire
that Jack Lemmon has to like

273
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:16,900
figure out what the heck is
going.

274
00:15:16,900 --> 00:15:19,800
Absolutely and and you feel
these two different people

275
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,800
having two different tensions,
right?

276
00:15:21,900 --> 00:15:26,300
Because Fran is finding out that
her lover and boss is actually

277
00:15:26,300 --> 00:15:29,700
just a Serial you know,
romanticize Iran has had Add

278
00:15:29,708 --> 00:15:34,300
tons of flings and Baxter is
finding out that his Crush has

279
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:38,500
been taken in by an older sleaze
ball and neither of them know

280
00:15:38,500 --> 00:15:41,000
what to do about it.
And they awkwardly, leave the

281
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,300
room and it just it's just
pitch.

282
00:15:44,300 --> 00:15:46,100
Perfect.
Best scene of the film.

283
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,200
You know, I want to touch on a
couple things that you said,

284
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:49,300
Brad Pitt.
The first thing that keeps

285
00:15:49,300 --> 00:15:53,200
coming to my mind is the way
that Billy Wilder draws out and

286
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:57,100
really makes clear to the
audience, the kind of pervading

287
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,700
sense of loneliness in this V
and I talked about it with

288
00:16:01,700 --> 00:16:04,400
Baxter a little bit.
Obviously Fran played by Shirley

289
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:09,300
MacLaine is feeling it as well,
but I think that everything in

290
00:16:09,300 --> 00:16:14,200
this movie really highlights,
the the fact that these are two

291
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,500
very lonely people and that by
the time that you get to like

292
00:16:18,500 --> 00:16:22,000
that big office party scene, he
has done such a good job of

293
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:26,400
establishing their motivations
that you notice the contrast

294
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,500
between everybody outside of
Baxter's do off.

295
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,000
His door who are having this
like raucous, debaucherous

296
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,500
party.
And the fact that these two

297
00:16:35,500 --> 00:16:39,200
people can be standing right
next to that and they, and they

298
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:44,800
are still so profoundly alone.
I think that Scorsese might have

299
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,100
something to say about, you
know, that looking like a

300
00:16:47,100 --> 00:16:50,500
debaucherous party because for
him, this is like the most tame

301
00:16:50,500 --> 00:16:52,900
thing.
That's very true spread.

302
00:16:52,900 --> 00:16:55,100
That's very true.
I would like to see this mashed

303
00:16:55,100 --> 00:16:57,600
up with Wolf of Wall Street,
somehow I was going to say

304
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,800
that's an easy easy man.
Nothing you could do.

305
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,400
Yeah, Brett.
I mean I just I was really

306
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,300
struck by the cinematography in
this movie and it was shot in

307
00:17:07,300 --> 00:17:10,200
black and white on purpose at a
time when most movies were being

308
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,599
shot in color.
I think it really does kind of

309
00:17:12,599 --> 00:17:15,300
continue to highlight.
Like I said, the loneliness of

310
00:17:15,308 --> 00:17:18,599
these characters, they went
super wide with the widescreen

311
00:17:18,599 --> 00:17:20,500
and I think that was intentional
as well.

312
00:17:20,700 --> 00:17:21,200
I don't know.
Brad.

313
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,500
Did you find that the
photography, you know, the

314
00:17:23,500 --> 00:17:26,300
cinematography stuck out to you?
I think one of my favorite

315
00:17:26,300 --> 00:17:29,900
scenes was literally the very
opening one when you you see

316
00:17:29,900 --> 00:17:34,800
Baxter working and then you
slowly cut from one scene of him

317
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:39,300
and everybody bustling around
him to him by himself with empty

318
00:17:39,300 --> 00:17:42,100
row after row after row.
Like obviously a lot of

319
00:17:42,108 --> 00:17:46,600
different movies have used that
trick of the Mindless drone and

320
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:52,500
you show you know, row after row
of secretaries working or like

321
00:17:52,500 --> 00:17:55,200
assembly workers at a factory
and you just, you know, show

322
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,700
them mindlessly working.
But I feel like this was one of

323
00:17:57,708 --> 00:18:00,900
the most beautiful ones because
it homes Deeply in on Jack

324
00:18:00,900 --> 00:18:06,400
Lemmon and just his predicament
in life of being a nobody and

325
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:07,500
Brad.
I think that we should talk

326
00:18:07,500 --> 00:18:09,700
about the three main
performances in this movie and

327
00:18:09,700 --> 00:18:12,200
since we're already talking
about Jack Lemmon let's dive

328
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:16,200
into his performance.
Here I have to say Jack Lemmon

329
00:18:16,500 --> 00:18:20,100
is one of my favorite actors of
all time and and part of that is

330
00:18:20,100 --> 00:18:25,500
because for as incredible of an
actor is he is he always seems

331
00:18:25,500 --> 00:18:28,500
authentically Jack Lemmon I
don't know how else to phrase

332
00:18:28,500 --> 00:18:32,200
it, it's kind of like Like Tom
Hanks where, you know, you will

333
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:36,600
suspend disbelief to watch him
be, you know, Captain Sully or

334
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,400
Captain Phillips or whoever it
might be in these movies that

335
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,500
you're watching but at the end
of the day you you trust him,

336
00:18:43,500 --> 00:18:47,500
you know, him because he is Tom
Hanks and you you know, you have

337
00:18:47,500 --> 00:18:50,500
this attachment to him.
And with Jack Lemmon by all

338
00:18:50,500 --> 00:18:55,600
accounts, he was as authentic of
a person in real life as he was,

339
00:18:55,700 --> 00:18:58,800
you know, playing a character
like Baxter and I think that

340
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,900
that authenticity A city that
earnestness really really helps

341
00:19:02,900 --> 00:19:06,400
him here in this performance.
Please miss cubic, you gotta

342
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,000
promise me.
You won't do anything foolish,

343
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:18,300
who care?
I would I can't I ever fall in

344
00:19:18,300 --> 00:19:22,300
love with somebody nice like you
Yeah.

345
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:29,400
Well that's the way crumbles
cookie wise Yeah, I mean I think

346
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,300
that, you know, we talked we
mentioned the script for a

347
00:19:31,300 --> 00:19:34,600
minute here that this is like a
really witty and sharp script

348
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,200
but I don't think that it would
go anywhere if it wasn't for the

349
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:42,000
performance of Jack Lemmon like
and there's so many little

350
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,600
moments throughout the film.
But like when he was in his

351
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:50,300
bathroom after Shirley MacLaine
has attempted suicide and you

352
00:19:50,300 --> 00:19:54,200
see him slowly like grabbing
things that she could try and

353
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,900
kill herself with.
And like hiding them and you see

354
00:19:57,900 --> 00:20:01,300
him keep looking back into the
room with care and you just feel

355
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,600
the seriousness of the
situation, you know?

356
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,400
And as somebody who has had
friends, who have desired to

357
00:20:08,408 --> 00:20:12,200
commit suicide and have
attempted like, for me in that

358
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,700
moment watching him, I like, I
understood him.

359
00:20:15,700 --> 00:20:18,700
Yeah, understood that motivation
of.

360
00:20:18,700 --> 00:20:21,800
I just want to care for my
friend, and I think that's one

361
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,300
of the most important things in
this movie is that, is that

362
00:20:25,300 --> 00:20:29,600
backs.
Really views Fran as a friend

363
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:34,600
and potential love interest and
it's not just a love interest.

364
00:20:34,700 --> 00:20:36,200
I don't know.
Did you get that sense?

365
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,500
Yeah, for sure.
And Jack Lemmon is one of the

366
00:20:38,500 --> 00:20:41,500
few actors that I think can
really go from being kind of

367
00:20:41,500 --> 00:20:44,500
this lovable.
I don't as a clown but you know,

368
00:20:44,500 --> 00:20:46,500
there are moments where he's
being goofball goofball.

369
00:20:46,500 --> 00:20:48,900
Yeah I mean but there are
moments where he's being very

370
00:20:48,900 --> 00:20:52,000
performative even for the people
in the movie like when he's

371
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,700
trying to cheer up Shirley
MacLaine and he's cooking

372
00:20:54,700 --> 00:20:57,900
spaghetti and straining.
Get through a tennis racket and

373
00:20:57,900 --> 00:21:00,200
you know humming a fake little
Italian song.

374
00:21:00,500 --> 00:21:03,700
And then there's moments where
you know, you watch him in just

375
00:21:03,700 --> 00:21:07,600
this state of despondency where
he's drinking himself into a

376
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,300
stupor in a bar and it's all
completely believable.

377
00:21:11,500 --> 00:21:14,400
And even from one scene, to the
net, like, you know, that scene

378
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,400
where he's in the office with
Fran cubic and he finds the

379
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,900
mirror or, you know, she pulls
out the mirror, right before

380
00:21:20,900 --> 00:21:23,100
that.
He decides he wants to model

381
00:21:23,100 --> 00:21:26,400
this dumb hat that he got for
himself and it's like It's the

382
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,700
best little sight gag in the
whole movie because the hat

383
00:21:28,700 --> 00:21:32,900
looks horrible, and he stands
there with his bowler on his

384
00:21:32,900 --> 00:21:36,700
head and he holds it for a beat
and she's clearly not into it

385
00:21:36,708 --> 00:21:39,100
because she's thinking about how
heartbroken she is.

386
00:21:39,100 --> 00:21:43,400
And it really highlights, not
just how Billy Wilder is able to

387
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,400
balance, you know, the comedy in
the tragedy.

388
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,500
So, so effortlessly, but like
you said how much he had to rely

389
00:21:49,500 --> 00:21:53,400
on Jack, Lemmon to make those
transitions so seamless.

390
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,300
Well, I think the best way to To
illustrate, this is to contrast

391
00:21:57,300 --> 00:22:00,400
it with Some Like It.
Hot like the beauty of Some

392
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,200
Like, It Hot, is that the comedy
steers?

393
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,100
Like it just veers right into
the Absurd, right?

394
00:22:06,100 --> 00:22:10,400
It's just over the top and
ridiculous and you have Jack

395
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,200
Lemmon at the height of his
powers just being flat-out.

396
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,900
Funny.
And the difference of this movie

397
00:22:16,900 --> 00:22:21,100
is that his comedy is always
grounded in reality, like tell

398
00:22:21,100 --> 00:22:24,400
me that you couldn't imagine
some Bachelor using a tennis

399
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:29,200
racket to strain his Getty like
it's 100% believable and the way

400
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,900
he does, it is charming and
relaxed.

401
00:22:31,900 --> 00:22:35,500
And you can feel this sense of
like, oh, well, like I'm in my

402
00:22:35,500 --> 00:22:36,800
element.
I'm in my home.

403
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,400
I'm caring for a woman that I
see as a friend.

404
00:22:39,500 --> 00:22:43,900
And as somebody, I kind of like,
and I just everything about his

405
00:22:43,900 --> 00:22:48,200
performance, kept the core of
the movie, which is this drama

406
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:54,100
of, you know, Fran and her
desire to find love their

407
00:22:54,900 --> 00:22:59,300
everything about His performance
keeps that feeling real and if

408
00:22:59,300 --> 00:23:02,700
he had veered into the Absurd at
all, you know, which credit to

409
00:23:02,700 --> 00:23:06,300
Billy Wilder for directing him.
Well, that, if he had gone over

410
00:23:06,300 --> 00:23:09,600
the top in an instant, I think
it would have discredited the

411
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,800
entire, like core of the film.
Yeah.

412
00:23:12,700 --> 00:23:15,800
And countering him, you know,
are balancing him out.

413
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,700
I guess in some ways, is Shirley
MacLaine as Fran, she is 26

414
00:23:19,700 --> 00:23:21,900
years old, in this movie, she's
only been acting in movies for

415
00:23:21,900 --> 00:23:26,300
five years.
At this point, she is kind of A

416
00:23:26,300 --> 00:23:31,300
really quickly ascending star in
Hollywood and watching this

417
00:23:31,300 --> 00:23:33,500
movie, this time, Brad, I've
probably seen this movie 10

418
00:23:33,500 --> 00:23:35,800
times through.
I have always always been blown

419
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:41,000
away by Jack, Lemmon watching it
this time I was like how did I

420
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,200
miss how incredible she is in
this movie?

421
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:51,500
Because she is acting in such a
naturalistic way that I forgot

422
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,400
at many points of the movie that
I was watching someone pretend

423
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,700
to be be somebody else.
She's so perfectly embodies this

424
00:24:00,100 --> 00:24:07,000
heartbroken depressed person and
every single line reading that

425
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:12,500
she does is so authentic and not
only that but she knows to not

426
00:24:12,500 --> 00:24:16,000
be showy about any of it and she
knows that, you know, Jack

427
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,000
Lemmon has the these sillier
more showy performance in this

428
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,200
movie and so she has to balance
him out by being a little more

429
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:27,500
subdued and Sadly, it's not the
kind of performance that you

430
00:24:27,500 --> 00:24:30,200
really take note of, unless you
have seen the movie a few times,

431
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,100
I feel like and this time
through I'm thinking to myself

432
00:24:33,100 --> 00:24:37,200
my gosh this might be one of the
best female performances I've

433
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,500
ever seen in a movie and I have
been overlooking it all these

434
00:24:41,500 --> 00:24:45,100
years.
I just walked out of me, quit

435
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,900
through that, big fat, John
right in my face.

436
00:24:49,900 --> 00:24:59,600
The nerve.
Anyway.

437
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,400
I guess that's the way it
crumbles.

438
00:25:06,100 --> 00:25:10,300
Cookie wise.
Are you talking about?

439
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:17,200
I'd spell it out for you only, I
can't spell well, you know that

440
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:21,000
was Bob.
It's the fact that in a time

441
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,400
where it feels like every single
movie was trying to make their

442
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,200
female leads a Marilyn Monroe,
you know?

443
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,300
And I say this with all respect
because I actually really like,

444
00:25:31,300 --> 00:25:34,300
Marilyn Monroe in her movies but
they are trying to make their

445
00:25:34,300 --> 00:25:38,400
leads ditzy and dumb and not
only their leads, but I feel

446
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,800
like women were portrayed in a
pretty terrible way in general

447
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:46,200
as being just Ridiculously
stupid and unaware of men's

448
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,500
intentions with them and just
buying any lie that they were

449
00:25:49,500 --> 00:25:54,800
fed, I think that Shirley
MacLaine in this film, portrays

450
00:25:54,800 --> 00:26:00,400
a more real woman who was caught
up in the lies of a manipulative

451
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,800
just jerk.
And you get the sense that she's

452
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,900
a real girl.
You don't ever get the sense

453
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,300
that she is faking.
Anyway.

454
00:26:09,300 --> 00:26:11,300
And I honestly Bob, I've talked
about this before on the

455
00:26:11,300 --> 00:26:15,300
podcast, Authenticity.
I think that's what you're

456
00:26:15,300 --> 00:26:19,000
looking for in a lot of
different films and in this one

457
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:24,000
you have two characters that
just come across so perfectly

458
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,100
authentic of being who they are
going to be Shirley MacLaine

459
00:26:28,100 --> 00:26:31,300
knocks it, out of the freaking
Park in this movie.

460
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,400
And I really think one of my
favorite scenes for her is the

461
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:38,600
very final one, where she comes
into Jack Clemons apartment and

462
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,500
just matter-of-factly starts
playing gin rummy, hmm.

463
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,000
And like She's she's kind of
playing Coy kind of playing

464
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,900
hard-to-get even though he knows
for 100% that he has her and

465
00:26:48,900 --> 00:26:53,000
when she doesn't answer him when
he says that I love you, it's

466
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,600
just this like fun playful
little acknowledgement of like,

467
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,800
yeah, I know you love me.
Let's play some Gin Rummy.

468
00:26:59,300 --> 00:27:02,300
It's just it's just perfect.
Yeah, I mean I was watching

469
00:27:02,300 --> 00:27:06,300
little moments like when
sheldrake her boss or you know

470
00:27:06,300 --> 00:27:09,600
the the executive that she's
sleeping with his secretary

471
00:27:09,900 --> 00:27:12,200
basically Corners her and
confronts her.

472
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,900
The information that he's been
doing this with girls for years

473
00:27:14,900 --> 00:27:18,600
now and that she herself was one
of them and watching Shirley

474
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:23,500
MacLaine react is, it's such a
like, it was almost cringey.

475
00:27:23,700 --> 00:27:25,100
Like, it was like watching
those.

476
00:27:25,100 --> 00:27:27,900
Those are really hard to watch
episodes of the office in some

477
00:27:27,900 --> 00:27:31,500
ways because she plays it, so
naturally, like, she's trying to

478
00:27:31,500 --> 00:27:33,900
laugh it off and she's turning
her head away and saying like,

479
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:38,400
you know, you have to excuse me
and it's the way she embodies

480
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,200
the embarrassment.
It's so perfectly done that.

481
00:27:42,300 --> 00:27:45,700
You like like I said, I forgot I
was watching an actress at some

482
00:27:45,700 --> 00:27:48,900
point and that I think is the
highest compliment I can

483
00:27:48,900 --> 00:27:52,300
possibly give to somebody well.
And when you talk about

484
00:27:52,300 --> 00:27:55,600
authenticity and disability you
know like you said of Shirley

485
00:27:55,600 --> 00:28:00,300
MacLaine to just keep the
audience drawn in with just how

486
00:28:00,300 --> 00:28:03,500
real her performances.
I think you have Fred MacMurray

487
00:28:03,500 --> 00:28:09,300
as the foil to that of just
being the most sleazy over the

488
00:28:09,300 --> 00:28:14,300
top villain that I think that
this Movie kind of needed like

489
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,600
with all of the groundedness of
the other characters.

490
00:28:17,900 --> 00:28:20,500
I don't think it would have
served the film to have a

491
00:28:20,500 --> 00:28:24,100
executive who genuinely had a
terrible marriage and was like

492
00:28:24,100 --> 00:28:27,400
genuinely struggling.
All this like it really needed

493
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,200
to have a corporate
high-powered.

494
00:28:29,900 --> 00:28:33,700
Honestly, in a certain sense, no
name, nobody who's just out for

495
00:28:33,700 --> 00:28:35,300
his own.
Well and I thought the Fred

496
00:28:35,300 --> 00:28:38,100
MacMurray was great at that.
I completely agree and I'm going

497
00:28:38,100 --> 00:28:40,200
to say that it's going to sound
like an insult Brad, but I hope

498
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,100
you understand what I mean when
I say this I think it actually

499
00:28:43,100 --> 00:28:47,900
benefited the movie to have Fred
MacMurray in this role, because

500
00:28:47,900 --> 00:28:53,200
he is not as good of an actor as
the other two, like, in the late

501
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,000
50s, early 60s, you really
started to see some of these

502
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,900
older actors, who had been, you
know, making movies in the 30s

503
00:28:58,900 --> 00:29:02,300
and 40s started to be in films
with these people that were

504
00:29:02,300 --> 00:29:04,700
coming out of the Actors Studio
in New York, and we're into

505
00:29:04,700 --> 00:29:07,700
method acting and it was like,
watching two completely

506
00:29:07,700 --> 00:29:11,400
different clashing styles of
acting on screen and sometimes

507
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,200
it worked and sometimes And it
was really obvious, and I think

508
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,800
this is one of those times,
where, you know, Fred MacMurray

509
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,200
is just kind of a wooden actor.
He doesn't have a lot of range

510
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,600
and I think I thought that works
really well in Double Indemnity

511
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,300
when he's playing this
hard-boiled, kind of guy and

512
00:29:25,300 --> 00:29:27,800
here it works really well too.
Because, you know, we keep using

513
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,900
the word, but he's just a dick
and he plays the really, really

514
00:29:31,900 --> 00:29:36,000
well, but he doesn't overdo it
and I think there are a lot of

515
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,300
people who would have either
tried to play it to

516
00:29:38,300 --> 00:29:41,700
naturalistically, or tried to
play it to hammy, and he doesn't

517
00:29:41,700 --> 00:29:42,900
do either one.
Of those things.

518
00:29:42,900 --> 00:29:45,200
And I think the movie really
benefits because of that.

519
00:29:45,300 --> 00:29:48,000
Honestly, I think one of the
scenes that illustrates that

520
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,500
movement or that almost the
Baton being passed from Fred

521
00:29:52,500 --> 00:29:56,300
MacMurray generation on to Jack.
Clemons generation is the very

522
00:29:56,300 --> 00:29:58,300
final scene between the two of
them.

523
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,900
When Jack Lemmon quits, there's
this one singular moment that I

524
00:30:02,908 --> 00:30:07,800
just loved way, where Fred
MacMurray goes now.

525
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,600
I thought you were a bright man.
See, I thought you were, you

526
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,100
were understanding your place in
this world.

527
00:30:12,300 --> 00:30:15,000
See you?
You just give me the key right

528
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:15,900
now.
You see?

529
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,900
And sorry.
Mr. Chaudhary What do you mean?

530
00:30:19,900 --> 00:30:22,200
Sorry, you're not going to bring
anybody to my apartment.

531
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,000
I'm not just bringing anybody.
I'm bringing this Cube lie.

532
00:30:25,100 --> 00:30:28,100
Especially, not miss Cube lie.
How's that again?

533
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:33,200
No key.
Baxter.

534
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,800
I picked you for my team because
I thought you were a very bright

535
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,000
young man.
Do you realize what you're

536
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,100
doing?
Not to me, but to yourself,

537
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,600
normally, it takes years to work
your way up to the 27th floor,

538
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,600
but it only takes 30 seconds to
be out on the street again.

539
00:30:47,500 --> 00:30:52,100
You dig?
I dig, he looks up into Jack

540
00:30:52,100 --> 00:30:55,000
Clemons eyes and obviously, I'm
exaggerating some but he goes,

541
00:30:55,200 --> 00:31:00,100
You Dig and Jack.
Lemmon goes, oh yeah.

542
00:31:00,100 --> 00:31:02,800
I dig.
And like, it just felt like

543
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:08,300
this, like, symbolic moment of,
like, you dig was a terrible,

544
00:31:08,300 --> 00:31:11,700
terrible line.
And like, jet the way Jack

545
00:31:11,700 --> 00:31:14,400
Lemmon just throws it back at
him casually.

546
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,300
I just felt like that was a
moment where I was just like, I

547
00:31:17,300 --> 00:31:19,000
just, I loved every second of
this.

548
00:31:19,300 --> 00:31:21,800
There was a moment in this movie
and you know will censor this

549
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,100
for the the wide release but
patreon you'll get an earful

550
00:31:25,100 --> 00:31:27,900
here.
There's a moment where I just

551
00:31:27,900 --> 00:31:29,800
looked at the screen and I
wanted my breath.

552
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,400
There's no one else in the room.
Oh, just like you mother like I

553
00:31:34,100 --> 00:31:38,200
I said it out loud to the screen
and it's the moment where a

554
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,800
sheldrake Fred MacMurray.
And Miss kubelik are in the

555
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:43,600
apartment together for the first
time.

556
00:31:43,900 --> 00:31:47,200
And she gets him, a Christmas
present, and it's a, it's a

557
00:31:47,208 --> 00:31:51,500
recording, it's an LP.
Of The Pianist in the restaurant

558
00:31:51,500 --> 00:31:53,600
that they go to.
And the first thing he does is

559
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,800
he says, well you know, we
better leave that here.

560
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,500
Meaning I can't take this home
to my wife, I'll have to explain

561
00:31:58,500 --> 00:32:01,600
things and she goes, yeah, we
better leave it here and then he

562
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:05,200
says well you know II didn't get
you anything but here's a

563
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,100
hundred dollars and he pulls a
hundred dollar bill out of his

564
00:32:07,100 --> 00:32:10,700
wallet and the way they frame it
Brad they cut back to her on the

565
00:32:10,700 --> 00:32:13,900
couch and it is like at eye
level with her sitting on the

566
00:32:13,908 --> 00:32:15,800
couch.
So you basically just see like

567
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:19,100
Fred mcmurray's waste he's and
you just see this, huh?

568
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,600
Two dollar bill kind of like
fall into frame while she's

569
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:27,700
looking at him with this.
Look of just utter contempt and

570
00:32:27,700 --> 00:32:33,300
and hatred, and it was the most
crushing thing to watch him drop

571
00:32:33,300 --> 00:32:37,100
this hundred dollar bill at her.
It basically has a way of saying

572
00:32:37,100 --> 00:32:40,800
like you are nothing but a cheap
whore to me and it like that

573
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,600
scene and that the way they
framed it, visually, I think

574
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,800
will forever be burned in my
mind, and the way that she

575
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:51,600
stands up and like, takes her It
off and and he just goes,

576
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,500
although we don't really have
any time for that and he and

577
00:32:54,500 --> 00:32:57,200
she, I don't remember exactly
how she says it, but she

578
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,000
basically says, well, if you
already paid for it, I figured,

579
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:01,800
I might as well.
See ya.

580
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,400
And you're just like, oh man,
and he just kind of goes on,

581
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,600
don't talk like that.
Okay, bye, right.

582
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,200
Yeah, he's I mean, all three of
them are great in this movie,

583
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:14,900
Brad.
I don't think we're saying

584
00:33:14,900 --> 00:33:16,400
anything, like revolutionary
here.

585
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,500
There's movies really good, the
acting is phenomenal.

586
00:33:18,500 --> 00:33:19,300
The script is great.
Rate.

587
00:33:19,300 --> 00:33:22,800
The direction is fantastic.
I think it's time for us to hit

588
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,300
pause and drink some whiskey.
So what do you say?

589
00:33:25,300 --> 00:33:28,700
We sip on some single malt
scotch and try this Buna haben

590
00:33:28,700 --> 00:33:31,200
12?
Yes, let's drink it.

591
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:18,900
Alright, today we are checking
out Buna Haven. 12-year Brad.

592
00:34:18,900 --> 00:34:22,199
This might be the most fun to
say, name of any whiskey we've

593
00:34:22,199 --> 00:34:26,100
ever had on this show.
I love the Scottish people and

594
00:34:26,100 --> 00:34:30,100
their names.
And this one Buna haben is one

595
00:34:30,100 --> 00:34:32,800
that I'm going to say at least
50 times in this segment.

596
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,199
So just prepare yourself.
I don't know man.

597
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:42,199
The nectar nectar might have
been that might be our best.

598
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:45,199
We probably should run a segment
on Instagram with the just the

599
00:34:45,199 --> 00:34:47,800
best names of whiskey.
That's right time.

600
00:34:47,900 --> 00:34:50,100
That's true.
I broke logic is right up there,

601
00:34:50,100 --> 00:34:51,699
too.
That's right, man.

602
00:34:52,100 --> 00:34:55,100
All right, so Buna, hob and 12
year is an interesting whiskey

603
00:34:55,100 --> 00:34:56,800
Brad.
This is an I'll, uh, scotch.

604
00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:01,200
And as we know, Ila scotches are
usually very heavily peated.

605
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:05,100
Think Laphroaig, but Boone, aha
Van Gogh's, an opposite route.

606
00:35:05,100 --> 00:35:08,000
They really don't heavily Peach
their Scotch at all.

607
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,200
In fact, as I know Agnes, I'm
not getting many, you know, any

608
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:12,700
Pete at all.
So it may be completely

609
00:35:12,700 --> 00:35:16,300
unpainted for all.
I know, this particular

610
00:35:16,300 --> 00:35:19,800
expression of Buna, haben 12 was
kind of revamped back in the

611
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:25,200
year 2010, they upped the proof
on it to 46.3%.

612
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,100
So we're looking at a basically,
a 92 and a half proof whiskey

613
00:35:28,100 --> 00:35:30,400
here.
It's non chill filtered and they

614
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,500
have not added any coloration to
it.

615
00:35:32,700 --> 00:35:34,600
One thing we've really never
talked about on this show, is

616
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:39,000
that unlike bourbon with Scotch.
They can actually add caramel

617
00:35:39,300 --> 00:35:42,300
Alluring to Scotch whisky to
make it look darker in the

618
00:35:42,308 --> 00:35:44,600
glass, and it doesn't affect
anything.

619
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,900
They have to put on the label.
It's still considered Scotch.

620
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,500
So there's actually been a
pretty big movement in the

621
00:35:49,500 --> 00:35:53,300
scotch world to stop doing that
and just present, you know, the

622
00:35:53,300 --> 00:35:55,200
whiskey, the way that it's
supposed to look in the glass.

623
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,700
So it has a much lighter look in
the glass, but that's just

624
00:35:57,700 --> 00:36:01,500
because they haven't added any
coloration to it, dude.

625
00:36:01,500 --> 00:36:03,500
They just need to listen to The
Beatles, man.

626
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,600
Let it be, let it be let it be.
That's right.

627
00:36:06,700 --> 00:36:09,100
And there's our copyright strike
for this episode.

628
00:36:09,700 --> 00:36:12,500
Kaboom, you're welcome.
Well Brad, let's get into

629
00:36:12,500 --> 00:36:13,700
drinking this.
I'm really excited.

630
00:36:13,700 --> 00:36:16,500
This is the second week in what
three weeks now.

631
00:36:16,500 --> 00:36:19,200
Brad, that we are drinking
Scotch, so I'm excited to get

632
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:20,600
back into drinking some single
malt.

633
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,800
Scotch whiskey, what are you
picking up on the nose of this

634
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:24,500
Buna?
Haben?

635
00:36:24,500 --> 00:36:28,100
12-year, honestly, I think that
you can still get a little bit

636
00:36:28,100 --> 00:36:31,200
of that smoke.
And it's not, you know, I'm not

637
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,700
to calling this a peated scotch,
but there's a little bit of that

638
00:36:33,700 --> 00:36:36,900
smokiness for me.
It's actually coming across a

639
00:36:36,900 --> 00:36:41,300
little bit, alcohol forward.
There's some hints of saline

640
00:36:41,300 --> 00:36:45,500
flowers and a little bit of just
generic sweetness.

641
00:36:46,900 --> 00:36:51,200
But yeah, it's a nice pleasant.
Smelling knows that I'll give a

642
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,500
7 out of 10.
Are you ready for this Brad?

643
00:36:53,500 --> 00:36:57,600
Because a couple weeks ago we
did a burl our 16 and a burl our

644
00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:58,400
18.
Mmm.

645
00:36:58,500 --> 00:37:01,200
And while I remember yes, and
while I liked both of those

646
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,300
whiskies, you were much more.
What's the word effusive in your

647
00:37:05,300 --> 00:37:08,600
praise and I was a little bit
more reserved and Brad, I think

648
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,500
the tables are To be turned this
time because I want ahead and

649
00:37:11,500 --> 00:37:13,000
took all my notes on this
already.

650
00:37:13,500 --> 00:37:16,500
I love this whiskey.
I love it.

651
00:37:16,500 --> 00:37:21,100
Brad, this nose is beautiful.
I mean, if you just kind of, let

652
00:37:21,100 --> 00:37:23,000
it air out a little bit in the
glass because it's been in our

653
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:27,200
sample bottle for a while, it
has layers of butterscotch.

654
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,300
And caramel, you can get a
little bit of that malt on it,

655
00:37:30,500 --> 00:37:33,800
but for me, it was stone fruit.
I got a lot of Peach on this.

656
00:37:33,900 --> 00:37:36,700
I got dark chocolate notes.
Just on the nose of this.

657
00:37:36,700 --> 00:37:39,100
I found this to be incredibly
complex.

658
00:37:39,700 --> 00:37:43,000
It's still very light and you
can tell like you said, Brad

659
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:44,800
that there is some alcohol on
it.

660
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,000
I didn't find it to be
offensive.

661
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:47,700
I didn't find it to be alcohol
forward.

662
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,200
I love this knows.
I'm actually going to give us an

663
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:51,500
eight and a half on the nose.
Brad.

664
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,100
Yeah.
That is pretty high up there and

665
00:37:55,100 --> 00:37:58,800
a lot of words that you just
said, but when I get into the

666
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,100
taste, I think that honestly
it's kind of at a similar point

667
00:38:02,100 --> 00:38:04,200
for me.
There's a few hints of vanilla

668
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,800
there that are kind of under
written by really strong saline.

669
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:12,400
Taste that I'm getting I'm not
getting blown away by any one

670
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:17,100
particular note, its kind of
vaguely sweet and kind of

671
00:38:17,100 --> 00:38:19,400
pleasureful.
And so I'll just I'll call it a

672
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,700
7 out of 10.
One thing that I've been doing

673
00:38:21,700 --> 00:38:23,900
the last few weeks, Brad, when
we're tasting Whiskey's,

674
00:38:23,900 --> 00:38:26,200
especially because, you know,
sometimes we record right after

675
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,200
dinner, we might have some funky
taste still on our, on our

676
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,300
palettes.
I had Chinese food tonight, so I

677
00:38:31,308 --> 00:38:34,300
was like, I got to find
something to reset my palate

678
00:38:34,300 --> 00:38:37,300
here.
I have a very standard Bourbon

679
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:41,000
and a very standard sky.
Atch that I just take like a

680
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,500
thimble full basically just to
kind of get acclimated to the

681
00:38:44,500 --> 00:38:47,500
flavor of scotch again before I
dove into this one.

682
00:38:47,500 --> 00:38:50,600
And so for me it's Cutty Sark
which is not a very good scotch

683
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,700
and you know, it's just, hey,
here's alcohol and maltiness.

684
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,900
And there you go.
And I followed it with this

685
00:38:56,900 --> 00:39:01,100
about 10 minutes later.
Brad for me, this was very sweet

686
00:39:01,100 --> 00:39:04,000
right from the jump.
I thought it was sweet with just

687
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,200
a hint of of that saline you're
talking about.

688
00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:08,000
It had a really nice spice on
it.

689
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:13,200
When I breathe out afterwards, I
had nutmeg and clove, I just

690
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:16,100
really thought that it's not a
complex flavor, but there is

691
00:39:16,100 --> 00:39:19,400
just layers and layers of
richness to this man.

692
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,400
Like I got a ton of brown sugar,
I got a ton of butterscotch and

693
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,800
yet it still stayed very, very
light on the palate.

694
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,200
This is one of the best scotches
I've had on this show and

695
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,200
probably two seasons Brad, like
I Thinking back, the only ones

696
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,700
that really stand out to me that
I liked immediately better than

697
00:39:36,700 --> 00:39:38,800
this.
We're keen to Ruben and

698
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,300
Laphroaig lore.
I'm going to give this a nine

699
00:39:41,300 --> 00:39:44,200
and a half on the palate.
Dude.

700
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,200
I think you need to start
writing some copy for Buna

701
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,600
Harbour, hey, this you are all
about this stuff.

702
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:53,500
Like I said, I like it's fine.
It's just not blowing me away in

703
00:39:53,500 --> 00:39:56,300
any way.
I think when I get to the Finish

704
00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:00,300
it's a little bit nutty, kind of
on the finish with a little bit

705
00:40:00,300 --> 00:40:02,100
of that floral Aroma coming
through it.

706
00:40:02,100 --> 00:40:05,100
It's a solid finish.
But once again, nothing has

707
00:40:05,100 --> 00:40:06,600
blown me away.
I'll give it a seven and a half

708
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,800
out of ten.
Yeah, I think if there is one

709
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,600
area where this is not great,
it's the Finish.

710
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:16,100
It's a bit more of just kind of
a standard scotchie finish Oak.

711
00:40:16,500 --> 00:40:19,400
It actually soured for me a
little bit on the finish and

712
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,700
then I got quite a bit of smoke
on the backend Brad.

713
00:40:21,700 --> 00:40:23,300
So you're right.
It is lightly peated.

714
00:40:23,300 --> 00:40:26,800
I think it definitely carries a
smokiness with it but overall

715
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,000
still Pleasant not alcohol
forward.

716
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,400
Not harsh.
It doesn't dry the mouth.

717
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,000
Thought it was definitely.
Ring.

718
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:34,800
I thought it was a good finish
like you.

719
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,700
I'm gonna give it a seven and a
half out of ten.

720
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,400
Yeah and that brings us to our
overall balance.

721
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:41,400
I think this is a well-balanced
whiskey.

722
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,800
I personally though just feel
like there's a need for more

723
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,300
complexity here that I was not
getting.

724
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,300
So I'm just going to stick right
where I'm at man.

725
00:40:49,300 --> 00:40:50,600
I'm gonna give it a seven out of
ten.

726
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,100
It's solid it's just not blown
me away.

727
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:55,000
I think this is a beautiful
whiskey.

728
00:40:55,100 --> 00:40:58,100
Like I would not be very often
that I would use the word

729
00:40:58,100 --> 00:41:01,700
beautiful to describe a whiskey
and I think in some ways we have

730
00:41:01,700 --> 00:41:04,400
been a little bit Old because a
lot of the scotches we've been

731
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:08,800
trying, Brad have been finished
in other types of casks to give

732
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,200
it a little bit more sweetness,
a little bit more maturity.

733
00:41:11,500 --> 00:41:13,700
So like I don't know if I would
stack this right next to a

734
00:41:13,700 --> 00:41:17,100
Glenmorangie Keen to Reuben,
because that has a very

735
00:41:17,100 --> 00:41:20,600
particular flavor that's been
sort of, you know, I don't say

736
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,500
added to it, but, you know,
infused into it.

737
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:27,000
And if you like this up next to
like a regular Glenmorangie,

738
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,000
like, I know that's a Highland,
not a Nyla.

739
00:41:29,300 --> 00:41:32,500
But this thing has so much more
depth so much.

740
00:41:32,700 --> 00:41:34,200
Our richness.
It's very sweet.

741
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:37,600
It's really decadent.
I would choose this over like a

742
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,900
Glenmorangie 10-year any day of
the week, I think it's

743
00:41:40,900 --> 00:41:44,200
incredibly well-balanced.
I'm gonna give it a 9 out of 10

744
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,500
on the balance.
I mean, I don't mean to throw

745
00:41:46,500 --> 00:41:50,100
you under the bus here but this
is double matured and X Bourbon

746
00:41:50,100 --> 00:41:53,300
and X Sherry, Cask, quite right.
But that is essentially what

747
00:41:53,300 --> 00:41:55,800
most scotches do.
Like we did that with a burl are

748
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,200
a couple weeks ago, X, bourbon,
barrels, and X.

749
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:02,400
Sherry, Sherry butts are pretty
much the standard for maturing

750
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:03,100
skin.
Scotch.

751
00:42:03,700 --> 00:42:07,100
Okay.
Yeah, I mean I am not, I guess

752
00:42:07,100 --> 00:42:08,700
I'm just not getting what you're
getting Bob.

753
00:42:08,900 --> 00:42:10,600
I just think it's kind of bland
Lee.

754
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:14,300
Sweet and has a few interesting
notes and it's just okay.

755
00:42:14,300 --> 00:42:17,500
And you know, that's when we get
to the value, you know, this

756
00:42:17,500 --> 00:42:22,700
sells for $55 and confusingly
enough 83 cents.

757
00:42:22,700 --> 00:42:24,000
Yeah.
In the state of Ohio, I don't

758
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,800
understand that price could you
know use any of the just make a

759
00:42:27,808 --> 00:42:31,100
55?
No no no 83.

760
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,800
I wonder if that works out to be
like an even number when they

761
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:37,900
had tax on to it or something.
I mean, maybe the like what

762
00:42:37,900 --> 00:42:39,600
happens when they change the tax
rate?

763
00:42:39,700 --> 00:42:42,500
Exactly.
Now I just, it's, I love when

764
00:42:42,500 --> 00:42:44,100
you find little anomalies like
that.

765
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,100
But honestly, for me, when you
have a world with Keen to Reuben

766
00:42:48,300 --> 00:42:52,600
for like five dollars less than
this, I just can't consider this

767
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:56,000
a great value.
Like it's, it's fine, it's good.

768
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:57,800
I would drink it.
If it was offered to me.

769
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:04,100
But at $56, I can only give it a
4 out of Non-value a 4 out of

770
00:43:04,100 --> 00:43:08,300
10.
Yeah like it's it's just I can't

771
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,500
I've said this a million times
already Bob, it's just fine.

772
00:43:11,500 --> 00:43:13,500
Yeah.
Like it's like it's it's good

773
00:43:13,500 --> 00:43:17,400
interest but in the world of
scotch for me I'm only gonna buy

774
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:21,200
a scotch if I'm just really
Blown Away by it and I really

775
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:25,100
like scotch and so you know,
even at the fifty, sixty seventy

776
00:43:25,100 --> 00:43:28,100
dollar range, unless it's blown
me away.

777
00:43:28,100 --> 00:43:30,300
I don't want to spend that much
money, man.

778
00:43:30,500 --> 00:43:34,500
I mean, I will say that.
That I think this has a ton more

779
00:43:34,500 --> 00:43:38,400
character, a ton more sweetness,
a ton more flavor than the

780
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,700
aberle.
Our 16 that we tried two weeks

781
00:43:40,700 --> 00:43:42,900
ago.
Like, I'd think this this would

782
00:43:42,900 --> 00:43:45,900
stack up if we did these
side-by-side again, I actually

783
00:43:45,900 --> 00:43:48,400
would venture to say that you
might pick this over the a burl,

784
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:52,400
our 16 and again we're comparing
different regions of scotch

785
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:57,000
here, speyside to Isla but for
me Brad I really do think that

786
00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:00,500
at this price point.
The only whiskey, the only

787
00:44:00,500 --> 00:44:03,600
Scotch I should say.
That I think is a better value

788
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:07,200
is the key to Ruben and Ohio has
actually raised the price of

789
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:10,100
Buna, haben and lowered the
price of keen sir Reuben.

790
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,600
So I always say a year ago, you
could flip flop.

791
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:15,500
The prices of the to this would
have been about five dollars

792
00:44:15,500 --> 00:44:18,600
cheaper at least in the Kingdom.
Ruben, Brad for me.

793
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,200
I think it's a 9 out of 10 on
value.

794
00:44:20,300 --> 00:44:22,800
This is, this is one of the
better scotches that I can think

795
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:29,100
of, for $55 or less and we are
going to come out in extremely

796
00:44:29,100 --> 00:44:30,600
different places on this
whiskey.

797
00:44:30,900 --> 00:44:34,100
I'm coming out too.
Day, 43 and a half out of 50 on

798
00:44:34,100 --> 00:44:39,400
this ya, Baba, I'm coming out to
a 32.5 on this.

799
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:45,400
Alright, so that is bringing us
out to a 76 out of 100 or a 38

800
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,500
out of 50.
So, it is over that 35, Mark,

801
00:44:48,500 --> 00:44:51,300
where we typically say that it's
worth trying, it's worth buying.

802
00:44:51,700 --> 00:44:55,000
I actually would say that in the
rarest of instances for me,

803
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:58,100
being the Cheapskate that I am,
I would recommend both, I think

804
00:44:58,100 --> 00:45:00,700
it's worth buying a bottle of
this at $55.

805
00:45:00,900 --> 00:45:03,300
I would absolutely.
We recommend trying it at a bar

806
00:45:03,300 --> 00:45:06,500
because it's going to be less
than $10 to try this Brad.

807
00:45:06,500 --> 00:45:08,800
Where would you come out in
terms of recommendations?

808
00:45:10,500 --> 00:45:15,100
Yeah, this is true.
Yeah, yeah, I mean if you really

809
00:45:15,100 --> 00:45:18,300
want to try it that's fine.
I don't think it's particularly

810
00:45:18,300 --> 00:45:20,400
worth grabbing but go for it if
you want to.

811
00:45:20,900 --> 00:45:23,400
Would you like, would you
recommend someone to try this at

812
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:24,900
a bar?
Would you say pass on it all

813
00:45:24,900 --> 00:45:28,200
together?
I honestly Bob, there's very few

814
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,800
whiskies that.
I would say, don't try it, got

815
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:32,700
it.
But honestly like, you know,

816
00:45:32,707 --> 00:45:35,700
there's probably maybe out of
all the Whiskey's wherever ever

817
00:45:35,700 --> 00:45:38,200
drank.
There's probably only 10 to 15

818
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:39,500
that.
I'd be like, man.

819
00:45:39,700 --> 00:45:41,400
I would even pass on it at the
bar.

820
00:45:41,500 --> 00:45:43,100
I get that.
Yeah, I'd say, go for it.

821
00:45:43,100 --> 00:45:46,400
Like, if you enjoy Scotch, if
you enjoy especially sweet,

822
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:47,800
Scotch go for it.
Yeah.

823
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:49,500
It's solid.
It's a good poor.

824
00:45:50,100 --> 00:45:53,900
But overall buying a bottle.
No, not as much.

825
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:55,800
All right man.
So we're divided on that one.

826
00:45:55,900 --> 00:45:58,400
Hopefully we're not too divided
on our movie of the day.

827
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:00,200
So what do you say we get back
into talking about the

828
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,700
apartment.
Let's get to it.

829
00:46:44,900 --> 00:46:46,000
All right.
That was Buna.

830
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,600
Haben 12, a whiskey.
That Bob and I are pretty

831
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:51,900
daggone split on.
I don't often come out 11 points

832
00:46:51,900 --> 00:46:54,300
away from each other on her
whiskeys.

833
00:46:54,500 --> 00:46:55,800
Yeah man.
I was really shocked to see

834
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,700
that.
Yeah, you know it was fine is

835
00:46:58,700 --> 00:47:02,000
fine but on my gosh yeah it was
really good.

836
00:47:02,100 --> 00:47:05,300
It was not anything.
You say fine, one more time.

837
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:08,600
Hey Brad.
I like I just have to double

838
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,600
check my notes Here.
Was it?

839
00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:14,400
Fine?
Ah it wasn't, it wasn't fine.

840
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:16,700
It was just fine.
You know.

841
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,300
Do you remember the episode of
How I Met Your Mother?

842
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,300
Where robin keeps talking about
that painting of Lily's?

843
00:47:22,300 --> 00:47:24,500
It's hanging in the, in the
coffee shop.

844
00:47:24,700 --> 00:47:28,000
He goes, oh, it's really neat.
The colors are neat and Ted's

845
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,000
like, I'm sorry, just to
clarify.

846
00:47:30,100 --> 00:47:33,100
Would you say that it's more
neat or Neato burrito?

847
00:47:34,700 --> 00:47:35,800
Yeah.
That's where I'm at.

848
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:38,400
With this Brad.
This was, he was Neato burrito.

849
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:42,900
Bob.
All right, man, let's get back

850
00:47:42,900 --> 00:47:46,400
to talking about the apartment.
Dude, I have a burning thought

851
00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:50,100
on my mind that's been sitting
on me since I was like, I don't

852
00:47:50,100 --> 00:47:51,900
know about an hour into the
film.

853
00:47:51,900 --> 00:47:54,000
Oh, is this a scorching-hot brad
G?

854
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:59,800
Take Jim Carrey modeled his
whole acting career off of

855
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:04,800
trying to be kind of like Jack.
Lemmon oh man, are you Brad

856
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:09,700
listen to me like 100% agreement
with you?

857
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:14,300
Like if you listen to the way
Jim or Jim Carrey Jack Lemmon.

858
00:48:14,500 --> 00:48:16,900
And I mumble some of his lines
in this movie, like, when he's

859
00:48:16,900 --> 00:48:20,700
depressed, or when he's drunk,
it is Jim Carrey's.

860
00:48:20,700 --> 00:48:24,800
Whole performance in Eternal
Sunshine, but he is trying to do

861
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,500
the yes, dude.
Yeah, 100%.

862
00:48:27,500 --> 00:48:30,800
And like the, the physical
characteristics that he has

863
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,100
like, when we haven't even
talked about this part of the

864
00:48:34,100 --> 00:48:35,900
film, and I think it's
brilliant.

865
00:48:35,900 --> 00:48:39,600
The one time that Baxter tries
to get a woman and it's a

866
00:48:39,607 --> 00:48:43,300
married woman and he's like
you're worried he's about to

867
00:48:43,300 --> 00:48:47,800
dive into the vein of Of sleazy
high-powered executive that

868
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,800
moment he turns on the music and
he's kind of dancing around.

869
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:55,000
The apartment, is the moment
where I was like, oh it's Jim

870
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,900
Carrey.
Like the way he was moving

871
00:48:57,900 --> 00:49:01,400
around the apartment, I was just
immediately, like, oh, it's

872
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,100
Liar.
Liar, it's Bruce Almighty.

873
00:49:04,300 --> 00:49:06,600
It's everything I've ever seen
Jim Carrey.

874
00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:09,800
And I honestly, like it's this
is not a knock on Jim Carrey.

875
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,600
I really like him as an actor
know, for sure, for sure.

876
00:49:12,700 --> 00:49:17,800
I just was struck The comparison
and my rated just popped it,

877
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:20,400
dude.
I'm going to share, maybe the

878
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:22,000
nerdiest story I can share with
you.

879
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:25,900
And when you've seen as many
movies, as I've seen, like, my

880
00:49:25,900 --> 00:49:30,300
brain constructs, like, pretend
remakes of movies.

881
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:32,400
And I think sometimes like if
they were ever going to remake

882
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,300
this, who would I want to be in
it?

883
00:49:34,300 --> 00:49:37,000
And we actually played this game
a little bit with, I think the

884
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,800
Great Escape way back in season
one.

885
00:49:39,500 --> 00:49:41,800
So when I first saw this movie I
was in high school.

886
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:45,900
So it was around 2004 2005 this
The movie called The Terminal

887
00:49:45,900 --> 00:49:48,100
had just come out with Tom.
Hanks, I don't if you've ever

888
00:49:48,100 --> 00:49:52,000
seen, it's a Spielberg movie and
the lead actors in that movie

889
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:56,400
was Catherine Zeta-Jones and she
was playing a flight attendant

890
00:49:56,600 --> 00:50:00,300
who was having an affair with, I
think a pilot or something like

891
00:50:00,500 --> 00:50:04,000
that, you never see the guy in
the movie, but she played to a

892
00:50:04,008 --> 00:50:07,100
tee, the Shirley MacLaine part
of this movie.

893
00:50:07,500 --> 00:50:10,100
And I just remember thinking to
myself, oh my gosh, like,

894
00:50:10,100 --> 00:50:12,700
Catherine Zeta-Jones, might be a
few years older than Shirley

895
00:50:12,700 --> 00:50:16,100
MacLaine was at this point.
But I was like, if they ever

896
00:50:16,100 --> 00:50:20,100
wanted to remake the apartment,
like, you have Jim Carrey and

897
00:50:20,100 --> 00:50:24,300
2004 era, Catherine Zeta-Jones,
like right there for the taking.

898
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:28,800
And I just, I'm pissed in
retrospect that no one read my

899
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:31,300
mind.
And made that remake, bro.

900
00:50:31,300 --> 00:50:33,800
I'm telling you, man, once we
start the film and whiskey

901
00:50:33,900 --> 00:50:38,000
Studio, we will just make all of
those remakes that we've always

902
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:41,200
order to make.
We're just gonna cast them as 65

903
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,100
year olds.
Yeah, just do it anyway.

904
00:50:43,100 --> 00:50:46,100
Yeah, Jim Carrie will be lights
out.

905
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:51,500
Wow, I Brad, I'm really happy
that you noticed that as well.

906
00:50:51,500 --> 00:50:55,300
Because I have been thinking
that to myself for like, what 15

907
00:50:55,300 --> 00:50:58,700
16 years now is that also what
you yell at people on the

908
00:50:58,700 --> 00:51:03,200
street, I do I shake them and
Isaiah remedy making chip.

909
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:08,000
Carriage we make any Apartments
I just have this image of you

910
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,500
being George Bailey running down
the snowy streets of Akron

911
00:51:12,500 --> 00:51:15,300
shaking people.
Yeah like when he when he's

912
00:51:15,300 --> 00:51:18,500
accosting the pretend version of
Mary that's coming out of the

913
00:51:18,508 --> 00:51:21,000
library it's like trying to kiss
her that's made out of that

914
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:24,600
version.
Don't you see Jim Carrey is Jack

915
00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:30,200
Lemmon oh man Brad I think this
is a good time for us to move

916
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:34,100
into our final scores and I am
interested to hear what you have

917
00:51:34,100 --> 00:51:36,500
to say here because at the
beginning of the episode, Said

918
00:51:36,500 --> 00:51:39,400
that you thought it was a really
solid movie that it was in the

919
00:51:39,408 --> 00:51:41,700
top, you know, 20% kind of a
thing.

920
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:44,300
It doesn't sound like you're
ready to go, all in, and give it

921
00:51:44,300 --> 00:51:46,200
like a nine and a half, or a 10
out of 10.

922
00:51:46,500 --> 00:51:49,300
So share your final score with
us, but but also, can you

923
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:51,900
enlighten me a little bit on
what you think might be some of

924
00:51:51,900 --> 00:51:54,300
the flaws or the drawbacks of
the movie here?

925
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:57,400
I do think that there are a few
points throughout the film,

926
00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:01,200
where it drags a little bit
like, you know, the moment of

927
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:03,900
the start of the movie, when
he's making all these phone

928
00:52:03,900 --> 00:52:07,600
calls to the different, guys, to
try and And rescheduled dates

929
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:11,100
like it's a gag and it's funny
but it kind of drags a little

930
00:52:11,100 --> 00:52:14,400
bit and there was just one or
two other moments throughout the

931
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:19,700
movie where I just felt myself
wanting a little bit faster of a

932
00:52:19,700 --> 00:52:24,000
pace and not in a comedic sense
just in a genuine like, okay,

933
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:25,400
let's get to the next part.
Like what?

934
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:29,100
Like, we need to keep moving.
But overall, I really don't have

935
00:52:29,100 --> 00:52:30,500
much to complain about this
film.

936
00:52:30,500 --> 00:52:33,700
I think it's really solid.
I'm going to compare to Some

937
00:52:33,700 --> 00:52:36,200
Like It Hot again because I gave
Some Like It Hot a 10/10.

938
00:52:37,100 --> 00:52:40,700
And I think, you know, I'm gonna
give the apartment a 9 out of

939
00:52:40,700 --> 00:52:43,800
10.
I think the reason that it's not

940
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,800
getting a 9 and a half, or a 10
out of 10, for me, is the fact

941
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:50,800
that like, in the vein of
comedies, I think Some Like It

942
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:54,100
Hot just stands Head and
Shoulders above.

943
00:52:54,100 --> 00:52:58,800
Most, any comedy ever, written
directed and acted filmed like

944
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:01,600
it is so far above that.
For me, it's just a 10 out of

945
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:05,500
10, and I honestly think that
the apartment might be the

946
00:53:05,500 --> 00:53:07,000
better move.
Movie overall.

947
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:12,000
But in the end, there are a lot
of really beautiful dramas out

948
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:15,000
there that I can compare this to
and go.

949
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:19,200
Yeah, this is like one of the
better entries in the heartfelt.

950
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:23,300
Meaningful drama Department with
a little bit of Comedy thrown

951
00:53:23,300 --> 00:53:25,000
in, I don't know.
Does that make sense?

952
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:29,000
Yeah, no I totally understand.
And I get your critique, you

953
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,200
know, when we watch the movies
for the podcast you and I both

954
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:33,700
take notes while we're watching
a movie and I will freely admit

955
00:53:33,700 --> 00:53:36,800
that there were a couple parts
of the movie that I It more

956
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:39,800
convenient to take notes during
so you're right there probably

957
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:43,600
is and it's not very much like
if they trimmed maybe even like

958
00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:46,400
three minutes off the run time,
I think it would be a little bit

959
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:50,800
tighter but for me it's just
like, man, this movie hits a

960
00:53:50,808 --> 00:53:55,000
level of emotional depth that I
don't think has really been

961
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,300
surpassed in some ways by movies
that have tried to do it since

962
00:53:58,300 --> 00:54:00,600
then.
And the scene that I was talking

963
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:02,500
about earlier Brad, that I
called a really harrowing

964
00:54:02,500 --> 00:54:06,100
sequence is that whole sequence
in Jack Clemons apartment after

965
00:54:06,100 --> 00:54:10,100
he He discovers that Fran has,
you know, tried to overdose on

966
00:54:10,100 --> 00:54:13,100
pills, he calls the doctor over
and they have to basically keep

967
00:54:13,100 --> 00:54:16,900
her from dying the whole night
and Wilder just puts us in that

968
00:54:16,900 --> 00:54:20,900
apartment and does not shy away
from the horrible.

969
00:54:20,900 --> 00:54:25,100
After-effects of, you know, the
actions of this dick sheldrake,

970
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:29,500
and watching that sequence.
I was reminded of a very similar

971
00:54:29,500 --> 00:54:32,300
sequence in the movie.
Almost Famous, which we're going

972
00:54:32,300 --> 00:54:33,700
to be reviewing here in, just a
few months.

973
00:54:33,700 --> 00:54:36,100
And Brad, you've seen the
director's cut of that movie.

974
00:54:36,100 --> 00:54:38,900
So, You've at least seen that
scene before, but, you know, a

975
00:54:38,908 --> 00:54:41,400
main character in that movie
tries to commit suicide, they

976
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,900
have to pump her stomach out.
It's very similar to the

977
00:54:43,900 --> 00:54:48,200
apartment and yet that movie
Cuts away Way quicker than this

978
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:50,600
one does.
And I'm not saying that just,

979
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,800
you know, forcing people to
watch something harrowing makes

980
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:58,100
it better, but I think that it's
really a testament to how well

981
00:54:58,100 --> 00:55:01,500
made this movie was that in 60
years.

982
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:05,000
I don't know if that scene has
been topped in terms of what

983
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,200
they're trying to do.
And so, for all those reasons,

984
00:55:08,700 --> 00:55:11,900
for the reasons of, you know, it
being a comedy and a tragedy,

985
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:15,900
and a romance and working at
all, three, it's a nearly

986
00:55:15,900 --> 00:55:18,600
perfect movie for me.
I'm going to give it a 10 out of

987
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:21,100
10, honestly.
Bob, I was worried that you were

988
00:55:21,107 --> 00:55:23,100
going to mention Pulp Fiction
there when you're talking about

989
00:55:23,100 --> 00:55:25,100
overdosing seen.
Oh gosh, not that one.

990
00:55:25,100 --> 00:55:29,000
Not that one.
But honestly, I will say, there

991
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:32,100
is a moment when the doctor was
just slapping her.

992
00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:38,100
That I was worried that like a
Only one viewer might watch that

993
00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:41,400
and just think that it's like
over the top and, you know,

994
00:55:41,700 --> 00:55:46,300
abusive and on, you know,
unnecessary and I will say this

995
00:55:46,300 --> 00:55:50,100
as somebody who has watched,
people had their stomachs pumped

996
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:53,200
and been brought back from the
brink of death, you know, after

997
00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:56,400
suicide attempts or alcohol
poisoning or things like that.

998
00:55:57,100 --> 00:55:59,500
Nah dude, that doctor was being
gentle.

999
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:02,900
Yeah, like, being 100% honest
like that.

1000
00:56:02,900 --> 00:56:06,100
I mean it was a gruesome scene.
It was brutal, it was honest.

1001
00:56:06,300 --> 00:56:08,200
East.
And that's what I really loved

1002
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,000
about it.
Once again, this movie is not

1003
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:14,100
shying away from the reality of
what's happening.

1004
00:56:14,100 --> 00:56:17,100
When these, you know, sleaze
balls are just taking advantage

1005
00:56:17,100 --> 00:56:20,400
of women.
Well, on that really happy and

1006
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:22,800
shiny.
And positive note, we would like

1007
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:24,600
to hear what you think about
this movie.

1008
00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:27,100
I, I mean, Brad, I assume nine
out of ten.

1009
00:56:27,100 --> 00:56:29,300
You gave it your going to
recommend that people should go

1010
00:56:29,300 --> 00:56:31,200
watch this movie.
Oh yeah, dude.

1011
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:34,300
I mean, if you can get it at a
bar, if you can, you know, just

1012
00:56:34,300 --> 00:56:35,300
going to shut up.
Oh sorry.

1013
00:56:35,300 --> 00:56:37,500
We're talking about movie.
Yeah.

1014
00:56:37,500 --> 00:56:39,400
Yeah.
You should you should totally

1015
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:41,800
watch this movie 5.
It's it's great.

1016
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:45,300
And if you have seen the movie
or if you wanted, if we have

1017
00:56:45,300 --> 00:56:48,600
persuaded you to go watch it.
Hit us up after the fact, you

1018
00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:52,600

Facebook, Twitter or Instagram

1019
00:56:52,700 --> 00:56:55,600
at film whiskey.
Honestly, Bob, I'm just going to

1020
00:56:55,607 --> 00:56:59,000
make another pitch.
Don't go see All About Eve.

1021
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:03,000
I just want to remind everybody
that that is not a movie worth

1022
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:06,100
watching, whereas the apartment
is eminently.

1023
00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:09,800
We a better film and much more
worth watching than All About

1024
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:11,800
Eve.
So now that, that public service

1025
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:13,800
announcement is over.
If you want to give us some

1026
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:18,100
feedback verbally auditorily,
give us a phone call.

1027
00:57:18,300 --> 00:57:21,100
You can leave us a voicemail on
our website which is anchored on

1028
00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:27,500
FM / film, whiskey, Brad, I am
ready for this with every ounce

1029
00:57:27,500 --> 00:57:31,100
of my being next week.
We're coming at you with the

1030
00:57:31,100 --> 00:57:34,100
only movie to this day to
feature a man, free falling and

1031
00:57:34,100 --> 00:57:36,200
bouncing off a propeller into
icy cold water.

1032
00:57:36,300 --> 00:57:41,000
There's 1997's Best Picture
Winner Titanic.

1033
00:57:41,500 --> 00:57:44,500
I cannot wait.
I will see you next week.

1034
00:57:44,500 --> 00:57:47,900
Brad as we discussed that
Masterpiece, but until then, I'm

1035
00:57:47,900 --> 00:57:52,200
Bob book, I genuinely had no
idea what movie you were talking

1036
00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:56,700
about.
If I just said like Happy Feet

1037
00:57:56,700 --> 00:57:58,800
or like anything else, like the
cold Eames?

1038
00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:05,700
Yes, the Santa Claus has.
Oh man, I am bread.

1039
00:58:05,700 --> 00:58:08,100
G'yahhhh.
And guys, I'm so pumped for next

1040
00:58:08,100 --> 00:58:09,800
week.
Titanic should be a great time.

1041
00:58:10,100 --> 00:58:11,100
We'll see you next week.
