The Treasure of the Sierra Madre / Four Roses

Bob and Brad revisit the absolutely beloved, and yet still somehow underseen, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. This is a movie that casts a long shadow: it might be the quintessential American "adventure" movie. And it also features some freaking insane performances from Humphrey Bogart and Walter Huston.

The guys discuss those performances, as well as that of Tim Holt, who, in his own quiet way, might be the best performer in the whole thing.

Meanwhile, thanks to their Instagram friend @bourbon_in_college, they try out a flagship bourbon from one of America's favorite lines: Four Roses Yellow Label. For $20, it's hard to beat the value on this one, but does it stand up to other, more expensive bourbons?

Also, this week's intro is all about some exciting updates to the podcast, including that we've been picked up by a network: Robots Radio!

1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,800
Hey everybody.
I'm Bob and I'm Brad, we're the

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:05,900
host of the film whiskey podcast
and we're just so excited

3
00:00:05,900 --> 00:00:09,100
because we've been doing this
for about six seven, eight

4
00:00:09,100 --> 00:00:12,400
months now and we have some big
exciting news for you guys.

5
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,600
And so we just kind of want to
give you a couple updates about

6
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:16,900
the podcast as a whole.
Yeah, just here at the top of

7
00:00:16,900 --> 00:00:19,000
this episode we thought that we
would give you a couple

8
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,800
announcements and the first one
is that we have joined a podcast

9
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,500
Network which we are super
excited about.

10
00:00:25,500 --> 00:00:28,500
This is such a great opportunity
to collaborate with other

11
00:00:28,500 --> 00:00:31,800
creators and the network.
We have joined is called robots

12
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,400
radio.
So Bob, once you tell them what

13
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,200
robots video is all about.
Yeah, so robots radio is a

14
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,600
small, but growing network of
podcasts, and all of their

15
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,400
podcasts have to do with nerd
culture.

16
00:00:42,700 --> 00:00:45,500
So on the network, you're going
to see podcast about gaming,

17
00:00:45,500 --> 00:00:48,000
you're going to see podcasts
about even something like

18
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,900
boardgaming I think is on the
podcast.

19
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
There's actually one other movie
podcast on the network called

20
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,800
fresh tomatoes, where they look
at films that have rotten Rotten

21
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,300
Tomato scores and they try to
find something positive in them.

22
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,900
So, Super excited to be joining
this network.

23
00:01:02,900 --> 00:01:05,200
You know, if you've listened to
the podcast, you have heard me

24
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,700
go on and on, in my nerdy way
about movies and I think we fit

25
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:11,500
right in.
So what this means is that

26
00:01:11,500 --> 00:01:14,300
you're going to start hearing a
couple advertisements for other

27
00:01:14,300 --> 00:01:16,700
shows on the network.
And usually, we're going to play

28
00:01:16,700 --> 00:01:20,400
those at the Midway point or at
the end of each episode.

29
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,800
So just be prepared to hear a
couple advertisements but please

30
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,900
check out the other podcast on
this network.

31
00:01:25,900 --> 00:01:28,300
They are all great.
They've all been produced at a

32
00:01:28,300 --> 00:01:30,900
super high level just like you
would Come to expect from

33
00:01:30,900 --> 00:01:34,100
filming whiskey.
And we've really just realized

34
00:01:34,100 --> 00:01:35,900
that this is such an awesome
opportunity.

35
00:01:35,900 --> 00:01:40,800
We have to collaborate with
other people on making cool, fun

36
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,600
and interesting podcasts.
So, we're just so excited to

37
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,700
bring you that we've updated our
logo to represent the change.

38
00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:49,400
Yeah.
And speaking of changes, we are

39
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:54,100
actually in the process of
making a 4 to 5 Minute Podcast

40
00:01:54,100 --> 00:01:57,400
trailer, that is going to show
up as the preview episode for

41
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,500
the podcast in your player.
So, currently right now, You

42
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:03,100
will see that we have a preview
episode that we recorded back in

43
00:02:03,100 --> 00:02:06,300
February on Anchorman and that
was never really intended for us

44
00:02:06,300 --> 00:02:08,800
to release as a full episode.
It was something that Brad and I

45
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,000
just did one day for fun to see
if this film.

46
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,500
And whiskey thing might work out
and that preview episode has

47
00:02:14,500 --> 00:02:17,000
really served us.
Well, but what we found is that

48
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,000
it doesn't really reflect the
quality that you all have come

49
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,800
to expect from the show if you
absolutely love the Anchorman

50
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:29,700
episode, you can go ahead, go to
the simple cast are simple, cast

51
00:02:29,700 --> 00:02:32,800
page, And you can download it
right now and keep it forever.

52
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,400
Listen to it at your heart's
content, but that will be coming

53
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,100
down in the next two to three
weeks.

54
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,800
And so that's it.
We are about to get into our

55
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,600
episode on Humphrey.
Bogart's classic.

56
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,300
The Treasure of the Sierra
Madre.

57
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,800
Bob, is there anything else
you'd like to say?

58
00:02:46,100 --> 00:02:47,100
No.
Enjoy.

59
00:02:47,100 --> 00:02:48,200
We love you guys.
Thanks again.

60
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:54,700
Robots radio presents in 1948
director, John Huston and star

61
00:02:54,700 --> 00:02:56,600
Humphrey Bogart, gave the world,
a tragic.

62
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,100
Tale about the fruits, born out
of greed in 2019.

63
00:03:00,100 --> 00:03:01,900
We sample?
A flagship bourbon.

64
00:03:01,900 --> 00:03:04,100
That could be a gateway to
Liquid Gold.

65
00:03:04,500 --> 00:03:07,900
The film is The Treasure of the
Sierra Madre, the whiskey is for

66
00:03:07,900 --> 00:03:10,000
roses and we'll review them
both.

67
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,900
This is the film and whiskey
podcast.

68
00:03:31,900 --> 00:03:34,500
Welcome to the film and whiskey
podcast were each week, we

69
00:03:34,500 --> 00:03:37,100
review a classic movie and a
glass of whiskey.

70
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,500
I'm Bob book, I'm Brad G.
And this week we're looking at

71
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:44,200
the 1948 film.
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre

72
00:03:44,900 --> 00:03:47,100
Brad.
I feel like this is one of those

73
00:03:47,100 --> 00:03:50,800
movies, you know?
It's one of my favorite older

74
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,600
movies and I feel like it's had
such an impact on culture.

75
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,000
And yet at the same time, it's
one of those movies that I don't

76
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,600
think anyone has really heard of
before.

77
00:04:00,100 --> 00:04:02,500
Yeah.
I mean, I've watched the movie

78
00:04:02,500 --> 00:04:04,600
recently and I don't think I've
ever heard of it.

79
00:04:04,900 --> 00:04:06,400
Yeah.
It's just not one of those

80
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,300
titles that comes up when you
hear the list of classic movies,

81
00:04:09,300 --> 00:04:11,700
it just doesn't come up in the
conversation with, you know,

82
00:04:11,700 --> 00:04:14,500
Citizen Kane, Casablanca
vertigo.

83
00:04:14,700 --> 00:04:18,300
And yet it's just as highly
regarded as any of those movies,

84
00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:20,200
you know, when Library of
Congress started.

85
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,300
This thing called the national
film registry in 1989 to

86
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,900
basically like preserve movies
that they thought were

87
00:04:26,900 --> 00:04:28,700
culturally important to the
United States.

88
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,900
This movie was inducted in the
second year of existence for

89
00:04:31,900 --> 00:04:34,700
that thing.
So, it's like, people certainly

90
00:04:34,700 --> 00:04:37,900
hold this movie in high regard.
And yet, at the same time, I

91
00:04:37,900 --> 00:04:40,400
think if you ask the average
person on the street, like, name

92
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,600
more than one movie that has
Humphrey Bogart in it.

93
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,300
I don't really know if this
movie is coming out of their

94
00:04:44,300 --> 00:04:46,800
mouths.
Yeah, and it's, and it's really

95
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,800
sad to see that because Cuz
honestly, I'll give myself away

96
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,500
right now.
It's a really good.

97
00:04:52,500 --> 00:04:54,300
Oh, it's so good, it's one of my
favorites.

98
00:04:54,500 --> 00:04:57,700
So I'm glad to hear that, you
know, you hadn't heard of it and

99
00:04:57,700 --> 00:05:00,400
that you also really enjoyed
watching it Brad.

100
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,800
What were your kind of initial
impressions of the movie as you

101
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,800
went into it?
Did you have any idea what it

102
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,700
was going to be about?
Did you know, the plot in

103
00:05:07,700 --> 00:05:12,300
advance for some reason just the
title and the cover art for the

104
00:05:12,300 --> 00:05:15,500
film kind of gave away?
The fact that it was gold mining

105
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,900
or something about, you know,
striking it rich out.

106
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,000
Wild West.
I didn't know that it was in

107
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,900
Mexico, even though you probably
could have gotten that from the

108
00:05:23,900 --> 00:05:26,000
title Sierra Madre.
Well, that's okay.

109
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,200
We forgive you for that.
Well, you know, but yeah, a long

110
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,600
story short.
I went into this movie without

111
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,900
many expectations.
I didn't know what was coming my

112
00:05:33,900 --> 00:05:38,000
way and I was blown away.
I think one of the things that

113
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,100
makes it difficult to be
accessible to the common public

114
00:05:41,100 --> 00:05:44,500
is just the fact that I don't
know man, old movies or just

115
00:05:44,500 --> 00:05:48,700
made so very differently than
modern movies.

116
00:05:48,700 --> 00:05:49,200
Yeah.
Yeah.

117
00:05:49,300 --> 00:05:52,400
And I think that really comes
out in this film.

118
00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:55,000
Yeah, and I noticed it in the
way that John Huston, the

119
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,400
director kind of put this movie
together as well.

120
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,000
He wasn't making this movie in
like the conventional way that

121
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,100
you would have seen movies made
at that time.

122
00:06:03,500 --> 00:06:05,800
This was actually one of the
very first movies, ever to be

123
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,500
filmed almost entirely on
location outside of the United

124
00:06:09,500 --> 00:06:11,300
States.
They went to Mexico.

125
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,000
They were roughing it, you know,
kind of in the wilderness out

126
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,800
there.
John Huston kind of prided

127
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,800
himself on being like a
rough-and-tumble guy and he made

128
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,800
All of his actors go out hiking
with him in all of these scenes

129
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,700
and this movie was like,
exorbitantly expensive, because

130
00:06:25,700 --> 00:06:27,800
of that.
But you see it also in the way

131
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,600
that Houston kind of directs a
scene like I don't know how to

132
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,200
explain it but it almost struck
me as like a foreign film.

133
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,100
The way that the first couple
scenes are pasted, it was like

134
00:06:38,100 --> 00:06:40,900
lots of cuts.
Lots of weird camera angles as

135
00:06:40,900 --> 00:06:44,700
you get the feel for what this,
you know, City street in Tampico

136
00:06:44,700 --> 00:06:48,200
and Mexico, looks like and you
just immediately are put into

137
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,500
this world where or like whoa,
old movies, don't usually flow

138
00:06:51,500 --> 00:06:53,000
like this.
There's something different

139
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,400
about this one and that's truly.
Thanks to director John Huston.

140
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,600
He now correct me if I'm wrong.
He was the director for African

141
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:00,300
queen.
Correct.

142
00:07:00,300 --> 00:07:01,600
Yeah.
He directed The African Queen.

143
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,700
And then before this his first
film as biggest most

144
00:07:05,700 --> 00:07:07,800
well-remembered film would be
the Maltese Falcon, which he

145
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,400
also did with Bogart, right?
And so would you say that one of

146
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,000
Houston's legacies is the fact
that he really promoted the

147
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:19,700
format of actually filming in a
location that truly Slate's to

148
00:07:19,700 --> 00:07:21,500
the viewer.
What it's like to be in a

149
00:07:21,508 --> 00:07:22,800
foreign country.
Absolutely.

150
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,200
Yeah.
And I mean, you just can't beat

151
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,500
the authenticity.
And I think part of that is why

152
00:07:27,500 --> 00:07:30,600
this movie has such a different
feel because, you know, when you

153
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,100
watch a Casablanca or any movie
made in that era, you know, your

154
00:07:34,100 --> 00:07:36,100
mind doesn't know it, but you're
watching something that was

155
00:07:36,100 --> 00:07:39,500
filmed on a soundstage and all
of the camerawork reflects that

156
00:07:39,500 --> 00:07:42,300
whereas in this movie like when
you're watching, somebody walk

157
00:07:42,300 --> 00:07:43,900
up the side of a mountain you're
watching.

158
00:07:43,900 --> 00:07:47,100
Someone walk up the actual side
of a mountain and no matter what

159
00:07:47,100 --> 00:07:48,800
kind of fancy camera work, they
try to do.

160
00:07:48,900 --> 00:07:51,600
Do there's only so much that you
can work around nature.

161
00:07:51,700 --> 00:07:55,600
And so, it really does give this
film a completely different vibe

162
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,200
and feel like throughout the
whole thing.

163
00:07:57,500 --> 00:08:01,600
Yeah, the scene that I think of
when you talk about that is when

164
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,400
the fourth member of their group
briefly joins them and they're

165
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,400
ready to kill him, but then he
points out.

166
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,000
Hey, there's there's Bandits
coming up the mountain and they

167
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,700
give you that beautiful camera
shot of the entire mountain and

168
00:08:15,700 --> 00:08:18,800
you see the Bandits on horses?
Yeah, you know a few miles away

169
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,900
Right.
And and that shot gives you the

170
00:08:21,900 --> 00:08:27,000
sense of how big the the set is
that you're not on a soundstage

171
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,500
at, you're actually out in
nature and it gives credibility

172
00:08:30,500 --> 00:08:34,000
when, you know, Walter Huston
says, well, it'll probably take

173
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,000
him an hour to get here.
We should probably eat some food

174
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,400
for.
Yeah, right, right.

175
00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:39,700
And that like make sense, you're
like, oh yeah, they're really

176
00:08:39,700 --> 00:08:41,299
far away.
It'll probably take him an hour

177
00:08:41,299 --> 00:08:44,200
to get here, so I don't want to
go too far into the details of

178
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,400
the plot especially for people
who are listening to this and

179
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,200
haven't seen the movie yet.
So why don't we hit the X right

180
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,200
now and go to our favorite
segments.

181
00:08:51,300 --> 00:08:54,100
Brad explains.
The Treasure of the Sierra

182
00:08:54,100 --> 00:08:56,900
Madre, I think that we might
need to rename the segment Brad

183
00:08:56,900 --> 00:08:58,900
spoils.
The Treasure of the Sierra

184
00:08:58,900 --> 00:09:01,700
Madre, dad spoils the movie
that's 71 years old.

185
00:09:01,900 --> 00:09:05,600
That's right.
Oh yeah, we forgot to mention.

186
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,700
This is the 71st anniversary.
It's a big one, it's a major

187
00:09:09,700 --> 00:09:12,600
Milestone.
You're the worst just do Brad

188
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:16,800
explode.
So The Treasure of the Sierra

189
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,700
Madre is a movie that It's off
by basically just following

190
00:09:21,700 --> 00:09:26,500
Humphrey Bogart, around a town
in Mexico and he's just a hobo.

191
00:09:26,700 --> 00:09:31,600
He's a Drifter that ask people
for money and he ends up,

192
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,700
striking it rich with the
lottery.

193
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,900
And with that money, he decides
that.

194
00:09:36,900 --> 00:09:39,900
Hey, I should probably take this
money by some donkeys and

195
00:09:39,900 --> 00:09:43,400
equipment, and go prospecting
with my other hobo friend.

196
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,300
And this crazy old man, we found
in a bar who talked to us about

197
00:09:46,300 --> 00:09:48,800
prospecting.
I mean, that's pretty much.

198
00:09:48,900 --> 00:09:51,000
Much does that set?
Our, that's the setup for the

199
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:52,900
movie and then, that's, that's
the entire set of.

200
00:09:52,900 --> 00:09:54,100
Yeah.
And then, where it goes from,

201
00:09:54,100 --> 00:09:58,600
there is essentially, you know,
everything that Walter Houston's

202
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,600
character, Howard.
And that would be the crazy old

203
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,400
man that they find.
He basically gives this speech

204
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,600
about the, you know, the power
of gold to corrupt people and

205
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,400
what happens to people's, you
know, psyches as they go out and

206
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,900
try to Prospect.
And the rest of the movie is

207
00:10:13,900 --> 00:10:17,200
that basically becoming a
prophecy and coming true and you

208
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,600
watch these three men go Into
the Wilderness and slowly lose

209
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,800
their minds as they look for
gold.

210
00:10:23,100 --> 00:10:27,000
Yeah, and the, the movie
succeeded, I think the only

211
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,000
reason the movie is good is
because the three main

212
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,900
performers in the movie Walter
Huston, Humphrey Bogart.

213
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,200
And I can't remember the third
guys name, it's Tim Holt, Tim

214
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,700
Holt, they turn in three of the
best performances.

215
00:10:41,700 --> 00:10:44,700
I think I've ever seen, they're
all fantastic and the great

216
00:10:44,700 --> 00:10:47,100
thing about the roles that
they're playing is, you know,

217
00:10:47,100 --> 00:10:51,700
they're not all Super complex
characters, like you get the

218
00:10:51,700 --> 00:10:55,500
sense from the beginning that
Bogart's character is this loud.

219
00:10:55,500 --> 00:10:59,300
Brash kind of morally.
Corrupt guy, that's capable of

220
00:10:59,300 --> 00:11:01,700
doing bad things and that's
exactly what he becomes.

221
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,900
You know, Walter Houston's
character is the Wise Old

222
00:11:04,900 --> 00:11:08,400
Prospector who seems, you know,
insane, but is the most sane one

223
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,600
of all, and then, Tim Holtz
character and I actually think

224
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,900
Tim Holt is the character that
anchors the movie down because

225
00:11:15,100 --> 00:11:18,400
he ends up becoming who we as
the audience latch onto, because

226
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,600
he's the only One that kind of
keeps his sanity and has a good

227
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,700
heart throughout the movie.
Yeah.

228
00:11:24,700 --> 00:11:26,900
For sure.
The the moment that you really

229
00:11:26,900 --> 00:11:32,100
latch onto him as a character is
when the cave-in at the mine

230
00:11:32,100 --> 00:11:37,500
happens and he almost turns and
leaves Humphrey Bogart to die.

231
00:11:37,500 --> 00:11:39,100
Yeah.
So they're, they're like they're

232
00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:41,200
just starting their sort of
prospecting Journey.

233
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,200
They've like they've basically
created a mine in the side of

234
00:11:44,208 --> 00:11:46,600
the mountain and it caves in on
top of Humphrey Bogart.

235
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,700
And you're right Brad, you get
this wonderful scene.

236
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,600
Scene where Tim hold is like
calling into the mine Dobbs

237
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,700
Dobbs, which is Bogaerts
character's name.

238
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,500
And for just a second, he turns
his back and you, you get the

239
00:11:59,500 --> 00:12:02,900
sense of like, oh, gold is
starting to corrupt, even this

240
00:12:02,900 --> 00:12:06,300
guy and then all of a sudden,
you get this great musical cue

241
00:12:06,300 --> 00:12:09,600
of like the camaraderie theme
that you've heard through the

242
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,100
whole movie and he runs back
into the mine to rescue,

243
00:12:12,100 --> 00:12:14,400
Humphrey Bogart.
It really is it's a great beat

244
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:15,700
in the movie.
Yeah.

245
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,700
And that I will say that brings
me to one of my points of how

246
00:12:18,900 --> 00:12:23,200
Old movies are so much different
than new and older movies.

247
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,600
It is so much more obvious.
What the director wants you to

248
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,600
feel with music?
Yeah but you know what?

249
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,200
I almost I kind of wanted to
talk about this too, because I

250
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:36,100
almost feel like the music in
this movie is too much and like

251
00:12:36,100 --> 00:12:39,200
it's really catchy.
I love all the different themes

252
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,100
but it beats you over the head
with what it's trying to do.

253
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,800
Yeah.
But I guess the thing for me is

254
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,700
I feel like that happens in a
lot of older movie.

255
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,200
For sure, the music is, is just
be like you said, it beats you

256
00:12:52,208 --> 00:12:54,600
over the head with like this is
how you should feel, and we

257
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,000
talked about on the waterfront
of few weeks ago, I felt very

258
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,100
similarly about that movie, that
whenever you were supposed to

259
00:13:01,100 --> 00:13:04,000
feel good, you had a nice
upswell in the music whenever

260
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,700
you supposed to be scared.
There's a nice little you know

261
00:13:06,700 --> 00:13:08,500
up and down wavery.
Oh man.

262
00:13:08,500 --> 00:13:11,000
What's going to happen next?
You know piece of the music

263
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,200
right?
And so like these older movies,

264
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:17,400
they just hit you over the head
with music is showing you how

265
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,100
you should feel.
Yet, at the same time, I think

266
00:13:20,100 --> 00:13:22,900
this is where Houston's
decisions as a director really

267
00:13:22,900 --> 00:13:26,300
shine because he makes the
decision that not a lot of

268
00:13:26,308 --> 00:13:30,000
people did back then to
completely drop out the music at

269
00:13:30,100 --> 00:13:32,700
really crucial moments.
And it's, it's always when

270
00:13:32,700 --> 00:13:35,600
there's a really suspenseful
scene happening and he knows

271
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,100
exactly when to make it just
silent and it happens, probably

272
00:13:39,100 --> 00:13:40,900
three or four times in the
movie.

273
00:13:41,500 --> 00:13:43,900
One of the first times that it
happens is, you know, Brad, you

274
00:13:43,908 --> 00:13:46,600
were referring to this earlier.
There's a point in the movie

275
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,100
where one of the characters
Curtain.

276
00:13:49,100 --> 00:13:52,200
Tim Holtz character has to go
down into town and buy supplies

277
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:56,000
and someone notices him down
there and follows him up the

278
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:00,500
mountain and tries to become
part of their group and they're

279
00:14:00,500 --> 00:14:03,600
sitting around the campfire that
night and Tim Holt is recounting

280
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,900
to the other two guys.
Yeah, I think that guy followed

281
00:14:05,900 --> 00:14:09,700
me and all of a sudden, the
music cuts out and you see that

282
00:14:09,700 --> 00:14:12,400
the guy standing right there by
his camp and you have no idea

283
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,500
what's going to happen.
But the tension is so ratcheted

284
00:14:15,500 --> 00:14:18,700
up because you do get rid of
that, sort of like bombastic.

285
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,700
Music and you're left with
nothing but the silence that all

286
00:14:21,700 --> 00:14:25,200
these guys are sharing with each
other and and that silence, I

287
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,800
think mimics real life.
Oh crap moments.

288
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,200
Yeah, we're, you know,
obviously, we don't all run

289
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,800
around with music playing in our
head but if we did, they would

290
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,500
stop when we feel like we got
caught doing something, we

291
00:14:37,500 --> 00:14:40,100
shouldn't be doing or we're in
trouble for something you don't

292
00:14:40,100 --> 00:14:41,600
know, I mean solutely.
All right.

293
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,300
So maybe this is a good time for
us to kind of walk back to the

294
00:14:45,300 --> 00:14:47,800
three lead performances that
we've been talking about.

295
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,300
So we're talking about Bo.
Bogart.

296
00:14:49,300 --> 00:14:52,600
We're talking about Walter
Huston and Tim Holt and I want

297
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,000
to start with Humphrey Bogart
because he is, you know, the

298
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,600
major Hollywood star.
He's been at the top of the

299
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,700
Heap, since Casablanca really
catapulted him into the

300
00:15:01,700 --> 00:15:04,800
stratosphere, and he takes a lot
of risks here.

301
00:15:04,900 --> 00:15:08,300
I mean, he's the villain of the
movie and yet he's the, he's the

302
00:15:08,300 --> 00:15:11,300
first person you see where
dropped into the movie and we

303
00:15:11,300 --> 00:15:14,600
think that we're going to be
sympathizing with and following

304
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,100
his character of Dobbs, all
through the movie and really

305
00:15:18,100 --> 00:15:20,200
what the movies.
God is watching this guy Dobbs

306
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:24,800
go from kind of you know a jerk
of a guy to being a completely

307
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:29,600
insane murderer and for someone
of his stature to take on a role

308
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,500
like that, I think was super
gutsy.

309
00:15:32,100 --> 00:15:35,500
Yeah, I think you could almost
call him a lovable loser, at the

310
00:15:35,500 --> 00:15:39,000
start of the movie and by the
end of the movie, he really does

311
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,200
turn into this.
This murderous psychotic

312
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,000
mumbling to himself crazy
person.

313
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,400
That is the villain of the
movie.

314
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,800
Who tried to kill the man who
Who saved his life.

315
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,600
I know you for what you want for
a long time.

316
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:53,900
I've had my suspicions about
you.

317
00:15:53,900 --> 00:15:56,400
Now, I know I've been a right
suspicions.

318
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,400
Are you talking about?
Oh you're not putting anything

319
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,800
over on me, I see right through
you for a long time.

320
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,600
You had in your mind a bumping
off at the first, good

321
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,200
opportunity and bury me out here
in the bush, like a dog.

322
00:16:06,500 --> 00:16:09,100
So she could take not only the
old man's good but mine and the

323
00:16:09,100 --> 00:16:11,800
bargain.
And when you get to Durango

324
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,800
safely, you'll have a big laugh.
Won't you thinking how dumb the

325
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,800
old man?
And I were make another move

326
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,200
toward me and I'll pull the
trigger.

327
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,200
I'll get your hands up.
Come on, get them up.

328
00:16:26,900 --> 00:16:30,400
Was I right?
Or was I you and your Sunday

329
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,300
school?
Talk about protecting people's

330
00:16:32,300 --> 00:16:34,500
Goods.
You want.

331
00:16:34,500 --> 00:16:37,600
Stand up and take it like a man.
Come on, get up.

332
00:16:41,100 --> 00:16:43,600
You know, it's really funny as
you call him a lovable loser, at

333
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,100
the start of the movie, and I
think maybe it's because I've

334
00:16:46,100 --> 00:16:48,900
seen the movie before that, on
this watch, I knew where his

335
00:16:48,900 --> 00:16:52,300
character goes.
But because he's the first

336
00:16:52,300 --> 00:16:55,500
person we see, I think the
audience tries to forgive some

337
00:16:55,500 --> 00:16:58,700
of his rough edges and, and try
to sympathize with him.

338
00:16:58,900 --> 00:17:01,600
But on a second watch, you can
kind of see from the very

339
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,599
beginning.
The signs are all there of where

340
00:17:04,599 --> 00:17:08,400
this guy is going to go like the
the Mexican kid that comes in

341
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,300
and tries to sell him the
lottery ticket.

342
00:17:10,700 --> 00:17:13,599
He's been out on the street
asking for meals from all the

343
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:16,700
Americans and basically like
manipulating the same guy over

344
00:17:16,700 --> 00:17:19,099
and over to give him money.
And then this kid comes in to

345
00:17:19,099 --> 00:17:20,599
tries to sell him a lottery
ticket.

346
00:17:20,599 --> 00:17:23,400
And he says, get away from me,
you little beggar, and he, like,

347
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,000
chases after him.
And it just shows how much Dobbs

348
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:32,600
has absolutely no self-awareness
or is in denial of who he is.

349
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,300
Like, he's clearly just as much
a beggar as this kid is, but in

350
00:17:36,300 --> 00:17:40,000
his mind, he's above that kid
and it comes out like the

351
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,400
foreshadowing.
In this movie comes out time and

352
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,000
time again, you know, when
they're all in, like the Flop

353
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,600
House together.
And Walter Huston is saying,

354
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,900
I've seen what gold will do to
people, you'll never stop

355
00:17:50,900 --> 00:17:54,100
wanting more.
And Dobbs kind of drunkenly says

356
00:17:54,100 --> 00:17:58,200
like, you know, I would only get
what I set out to get, you know,

357
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:02,100
immediately like that's BS and,
you know, watching it a second

358
00:18:02,100 --> 00:18:05,800
time, you know, exactly that.
He has no idea what he's in

359
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,200
store for.
Yeah, I suppose that's one of

360
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:13,200
those situations where You kind
of see his character during

361
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:18,600
rough times, but when the true
difficult Hard Times come out,

362
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:23,100
you see that, who he always was,
is what comes out in the hardest

363
00:18:23,100 --> 00:18:24,700
of times.
Yeah, definitely.

364
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,400
So the big thing for me, with
this movie about Humphrey

365
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:33,500
Bogart, as an actor, this movie
actually made me very glad that

366
00:18:33,500 --> 00:18:35,600
I gave Casablanca a nine and a
half.

367
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,500
Why is that?
I looking back on Casablanca, I

368
00:18:39,500 --> 00:18:42,900
really struggled with You know,
shy to give it a 10, it's such a

369
00:18:42,900 --> 00:18:45,700
great movie.
I don't think Humphrey, Bogart,

370
00:18:45,700 --> 00:18:50,400
turns in half as good of a
performance in Casablanca.

371
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,300
As he does, in The Treasure of
the Sierra Madre.

372
00:18:52,300 --> 00:18:55,200
You know, I would agree that his
his performance here is the

373
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,500
better performance.
I also think it's the showier

374
00:18:57,500 --> 00:19:00,200
performance, so we're kind of
looking for it a little bit, but

375
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,000
I'm in complete agreement with
you Brad.

376
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,800
This is in my opinion, like the
best performance of Bogaerts

377
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:05,700
career.
Yeah.

378
00:19:05,700 --> 00:19:09,800
And you get it right away, he
actually like raises his voice.

379
00:19:10,100 --> 00:19:12,000
Like it.
In all of Casablanca.

380
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,600
He just kind of uses this low
Gravely.

381
00:19:14,900 --> 00:19:18,700
Like he almost sounds drunk the
entire movie of just like, oh,

382
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,000
what are you doing in my bar of
all?

383
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,100
The Gin joints?
Yeah, I'm Han.

384
00:19:25,100 --> 00:19:28,000
So it's going to say, I love how
he sounds like elderly Harrison

385
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,900
Ford it.
Yeah, for sure.

386
00:19:30,900 --> 00:19:34,400
But like in this movie he
actually gets excitable any any

387
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:38,600
any speaks loudly?
And he speaks softly and he he

388
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:43,500
just works the camera.
And he works his voice in such

389
00:19:43,500 --> 00:19:47,900
different ways that I love this
performance by Bogart even with

390
00:19:47,900 --> 00:19:50,500
him being the villain.
Yeah, definitely and it's not

391
00:19:50,500 --> 00:19:53,300
the only show we performance in
the movie because you've got

392
00:19:53,300 --> 00:19:56,800
Walter Huston there.
As the old man Howard who is

393
00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:00,500
like every bit chewing, the
scenery as Bogart is.

394
00:20:00,900 --> 00:20:03,200
What did you think row?
What did you think of Houston's

395
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,400
performance bro?
He is Hamming.

396
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:11,300
It oh yeah, I mean he just like
you said, he Just choose the

397
00:20:11,300 --> 00:20:13,100
scenery up.
He doesn't care what's happening

398
00:20:13,100 --> 00:20:16,100
around him.
He knows what his line is and he

399
00:20:16,100 --> 00:20:20,700
knows the type of character he
needs to be and he throws it in

400
00:20:20,700 --> 00:20:24,600
your face every time he laughs.
Every time he delivers a line, I

401
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:28,000
mean, he's just spot-on.
And it's funny because I feel

402
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,200
like I've seen this character a
hundred times, but then when you

403
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,100
trace it back, they all have
their origins in this Walter

404
00:20:35,100 --> 00:20:38,600
Huston character.
Like we I'd also I don't want to

405
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,700
undersell his performance either
because it Fantastic.

406
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:46,100
Yeah, he honestly reminds me a
little bit or I should say this

407
00:20:46,100 --> 00:20:51,800
other actor reminds me of Walter
Huston Joey Brown in Some Like

408
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,900
It Hot so interesting.
Like the just the way he laughs

409
00:20:55,900 --> 00:20:59,200
and he hands it up and granted.
It's a comedy versus a drama.

410
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,400
So it's different.
But like, just the way he hams

411
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,800
up the older male character,
right?

412
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,800
The it just screamed Walter
Huston to me.

413
00:21:07,900 --> 00:21:10,800
And the funny thing is, Walter
Huston had been, you know, he He

414
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,400
was a classically trained actor
and he was an Oscar winner.

415
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,100
He had been a leading man and,
you know, getting into his older

416
00:21:17,100 --> 00:21:18,900
years.
He still felt like he was

417
00:21:18,900 --> 00:21:21,500
leading man, and so when his
son, you know, the director John

418
00:21:21,500 --> 00:21:24,800
Huston, came to him and said,
Dad, I want you to play the

419
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,300
supporting part and also you're
going to be playing like the old

420
00:21:28,300 --> 00:21:31,400
stinky prospector.
And also, I want you to take out

421
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,600
your dentures in the course of
the movie.

422
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,500
So, it seems more authentic that
he didn't think he could do it

423
00:21:36,500 --> 00:21:38,700
at first.
And so, it's kind of like, with

424
00:21:38,700 --> 00:21:41,200
Bogart.
They're playing But what people

425
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,900
are used to seeing them play but
I think they do it to such

426
00:21:44,900 --> 00:21:47,300
incredible results.
That you don't question the

427
00:21:47,300 --> 00:21:50,500
decision that John Huston made.
I'm not going to Nazca and

428
00:21:50,500 --> 00:21:53,000
Canada and Colorado house with
the crowd in the British

429
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,900
Honduras.
What made the fare back home and

430
00:21:54,900 --> 00:21:57,700
almost enough over to kill me
the fiery, red card doesn't

431
00:21:57,700 --> 00:22:00,000
California and Australia all
over the word practically.

432
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,200
I know what Goldust Amanda
Souls.

433
00:22:04,500 --> 00:22:07,000
You talk is all you struck it
rich some time or other pop.

434
00:22:07,300 --> 00:22:10,800
How about it?
And what are you doing in here?

435
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,500
The down in order to Gold?
That's what makes this never

436
00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:17,800
know, Prospect, he had to died
Rich, make own fortune, should

437
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,500
have blowed in trying to find
another, I'm no exception to the

438
00:22:20,500 --> 00:22:23,300
rule.
Sure.

439
00:22:23,300 --> 00:22:26,500
I'm an Audubon now, would say,
don't you guys think the spirit

440
00:22:26,500 --> 00:22:29,400
gone, I'll set the shoulder
pickaxe, and shovel anytime

441
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,500
anybody's going to share
expenses, rather go by myself.

442
00:22:31,500 --> 00:22:34,000
Go along the best way, but you
got to have a stomach for long.

443
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,200
- some guys gonna do with it.
On the other hand going to

444
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,700
partner to his dangerous.
Murderers, always lurking about

445
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,000
Partners the kidneys out of all
sorts of crimes.

446
00:22:44,700 --> 00:22:47,400
Long as there's no find the
noble, Brotherhood will last,

447
00:22:47,500 --> 00:22:51,200
but when the piles of gold begin
to grow, that's when the trouble

448
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,400
starts.
Yeah.

449
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,200
So can I can I throw something
at you?

450
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,000
And you can confirm if I'm right
or wrong?

451
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,600
Yeah, sure.
Toy Story tip.

452
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,100
The character is it.
Stinky Pinky Pete.

453
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,700
Tell me that he was not based
100% on Walter.

454
00:23:08,700 --> 00:23:11,200
He's, it was totally a throwback
to treasure this year.

455
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,400
Madre like and, you know, the
Kelsey Grammer voiced isn't the

456
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,700
same as Walter Huston, but the
design of that character, 100%

457
00:23:18,700 --> 00:23:21,600
Treasure of the Sierra Madre.
Yeah, what, as I was watching?

458
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,100
Howard.
I was like, man, he just there's

459
00:23:24,100 --> 00:23:26,300
something about him.
That seems so familiar.

460
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,000
And like halfway through the
movie, I put my finger on, I was

461
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,100
like oh it's Stinky Pete from
Toy Story. 2.

462
00:23:32,900 --> 00:23:36,200
That's exactly right.
And, you know, you said that, he

463
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,200
was Hamming it up.
And I actually like, I think

464
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,500
that's probably the best way to
phrase it.

465
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,800
There's one point in the movie,
where I just cannot forgive

466
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,000
Walter Huston, or John Huston,
and it's like towards the end of

467
00:23:47,008 --> 00:23:49,400
the movie, you know, they're
getting ready to come in from

468
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,600
prospecting and cash in all
their gold and these Mexican

469
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,600
villagers come and say, there's
a sick boy, we need a Healer to

470
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,200
come and take care of him.
And so Howard's, like, well, you

471
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,300
know, I've got some experience
in that and he goes off with the

472
00:24:01,300 --> 00:24:04,100
Villagers.
He saves the boy and the

473
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:08,200
Villagers make him stay so they
can honor him and treat him like

474
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,200
a god basically.
And in this scene where they're

475
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:15,600
like, pampering him Walter
Huston like takes a puff off of

476
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,000
a pipe or he takes a drink out
of a coconut or something and he

477
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:24,100
looks right at the camera and he
like winks and goes blurry.

478
00:24:24,900 --> 00:24:28,700
And I couldn't believe that in
the middle of the Super's

479
00:24:28,700 --> 00:24:34,500
dispensable dark cynical movie
that this man looked Right?

480
00:24:34,500 --> 00:24:38,300
Down the barrel of the camera.
Like a Bugs, Bunny cartoon, and

481
00:24:38,300 --> 00:24:41,100
they left it in the movie.
It's unforgivable.

482
00:24:42,900 --> 00:24:45,800
Yeah, I do not, I didn't
understand that either if that

483
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,700
had happened like at the start
of the movie.

484
00:24:47,700 --> 00:24:48,400
Maybe.
Yeah.

485
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,000
But like, we're right in the
series part where it pulled me

486
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:53,700
out of the movie guard has.
Yeah.

487
00:24:53,700 --> 00:24:59,500
Humphrey Bogart has just killed
Tim Holt In Cold Blood, right?

488
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,900
And you just have him Hamming.
It up winking at the camera we

489
00:25:03,900 --> 00:25:05,500
can.
This young girl whose lighting

490
00:25:05,500 --> 00:25:07,800
his pipe, it was the most like
whoa.

491
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,300
It was the most jarring thing in
the whole movie and yeah, it

492
00:25:11,300 --> 00:25:12,900
really did.
Pull me out of the movie for a

493
00:25:12,908 --> 00:25:15,400
minute.
Well, it felt like an outtake.

494
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,400
That should have been left on
The Cutting Room floor or like,

495
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,900
you know, John Huston keeps it
for his private collection and

496
00:25:20,900 --> 00:25:22,900
laughs with his dad.
When they watch that go.

497
00:25:22,900 --> 00:25:25,700
Haha, I remember when you worked
at the camera and they just left

498
00:25:25,700 --> 00:25:27,800
it in.
Yeah, that that was amusing to

499
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:28,900
me.
So, let's round out our

500
00:25:28,908 --> 00:25:30,800
discussion of the three main
actors here.

501
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,000
I want to talk about Tim Holt
for a minute as his name.

502
00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:36,800
Is Bob curtain in the movie,
they call him curtain, the whole

503
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:41,600
movie, Jim Holt, in my opinion,
like I said earlier, he anchors

504
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,500
the whole movie down, he gives
the most grounded performance

505
00:25:44,500 --> 00:25:48,200
and you kind of have to because
you can't be at the intensity

506
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,900
level of either.
One of those other two actors

507
00:25:51,100 --> 00:25:54,000
like someone had to balance it
out and I don't think people

508
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,600
give Tim Holt enough credit for
what he does in this movie.

509
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,500
Yeah.
The depth of his character.

510
00:25:58,500 --> 00:26:02,700
I think really is shown best at
the very end of the movie when

511
00:26:02,700 --> 00:26:06,500
they've ridden back to Ruins and
they're looking for their gold

512
00:26:06,700 --> 00:26:08,900
and Walter Huston, just loses
it.

513
00:26:08,900 --> 00:26:11,300
And he's giving us that
ridiculous laughs.

514
00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:15,300
And he finally just says he's as
ah, the Earth is taken back.

515
00:26:15,300 --> 00:26:20,400
What we took from it, you know,
hahaha, that's so funny and you

516
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:28,000
see this this path from anger
and frustration to acceptance

517
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,900
and understanding.
Yeah.

518
00:26:29,900 --> 00:26:35,100
In Tim Holtz face that any
regular, you know, No American

519
00:26:35,100 --> 00:26:38,600
watching that movie would say,
yeah, I could do the same thing.

520
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,700
I could come to terms with
losing out on 35,000 gold,

521
00:26:41,700 --> 00:26:44,500
right, right.
And there's something about that

522
00:26:44,500 --> 00:26:48,900
character that he just.
He works the camera perfectly.

523
00:26:49,100 --> 00:26:52,100
He he bounces off of Humphrey
Bogart.

524
00:26:52,100 --> 00:26:57,100
So well like he's so calm and
cool and collected in the face

525
00:26:57,100 --> 00:27:01,900
of Bogaerts Madness that you
just, he really does ground the

526
00:27:01,900 --> 00:27:05,400
movie and anchor it in reality.
And he's the only one that they

527
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:09,500
really give these emotional
speeches to or I don't even know

528
00:27:09,508 --> 00:27:12,900
say emotional, but like hopeful
because, like, Howard gets a

529
00:27:12,908 --> 00:27:15,200
couple speeches where he talks
about what gold can do to a

530
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:19,600
man's soul.
But curtain is the guy who reads

531
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:23,600
the letter, from the fourth guy,
Cody's wife after we find out

532
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,500
that Cody's been killed by
Bandits.

533
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,200
You know, he's reading about
like little Timmy wants you to

534
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,600
come home and keeps asking
where's Dad?

535
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,900
And it's such a cheesy.
Seen.

536
00:27:34,900 --> 00:27:38,600
But the way Tim Holt gives this
movie a little bit of like,

537
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,800
gravitas and emotion you buy it
coming from him.

538
00:27:42,900 --> 00:27:47,400
Like he is the only thing that
gives this movie an emotional

539
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,700
punch because otherwise I feel
like it would be almost too dark

540
00:27:50,700 --> 00:27:53,100
and too cynical to really
succeed.

541
00:27:53,300 --> 00:27:56,900
Yeah, I feel like the three
characters are set up so

542
00:27:56,900 --> 00:28:00,600
perfectly that they're all
they're almost like caricatures

543
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,000
of what we want to see, you
know, with Walter Huston.

544
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:08,700
You see the person who you, you
almost see this, this might

545
00:28:08,700 --> 00:28:12,900
sound weird, but he's almost
like an Angelic figure that is

546
00:28:12,900 --> 00:28:16,600
trying to send a message to
Humphrey Bogart and Tim Holt.

547
00:28:16,700 --> 00:28:20,100
He comes in, he tells them the
danger of gold, he tells them

548
00:28:20,100 --> 00:28:24,300
the danger of greed and then and
then he just lets them play it

549
00:28:24,300 --> 00:28:26,900
out.
And you see and Humphrey Bogart.

550
00:28:26,900 --> 00:28:30,500
And in Tim Holtz, the two
results that can happen.

551
00:28:30,500 --> 00:28:34,200
You can be tempted by the gold
and turn away from it or or you

552
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,800
can be tempted by the gold and
given to the Mad.

553
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,300
Yes, yeah, definitely.
So Brad, you know, we have so

554
00:28:40,300 --> 00:28:41,600
much more to talk about in this
movie.

555
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,600
We haven't really gotten into
John Huston's direction.

556
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,200
We haven't talked about our
favorite scenes.

557
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:50,200
We haven't analyzed what this
movie is all about, but I think

558
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,100
that in order to really get into
The Treasure of the Sierra

559
00:28:53,100 --> 00:28:56,400
Madre, it's time for us to drink
a little bit of liquid gold.

560
00:28:56,700 --> 00:28:58,500
What do you say we tried this
for Roses?

561
00:28:58,500 --> 00:29:01,700
Yellow label, the only gold that
truly matters.

562
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,500
Amen.
Let's get To it.

563
00:29:10,300 --> 00:29:13,600
All right, so today we are
checking out for Roses, yellow

564
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,900
label.
Now this is for like, just

565
00:29:15,900 --> 00:29:18,400
standard for Roses, but they
call it yellow label.

566
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,400
It used to actually have a
yellow label.

567
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,100
They've redesigned the package.
It has this weird cream colored

568
00:29:23,100 --> 00:29:24,900
label.
Now, I don't know, don't shoot

569
00:29:24,900 --> 00:29:26,700
the messenger, but that's what
we're drinking today.

570
00:29:26,700 --> 00:29:28,100
Brad.
What?

571
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:33,100
Why do you think it's for Roses?
Like, why not five roses?

572
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:37,500
I almost looked up the origin of
the name for Roses before we hit

573
00:29:37,500 --> 00:29:41,000
record, but I did not do it.
So next time, We have four roses

574
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,900
on the show, I'll have an answer
for you but today I have no

575
00:29:43,900 --> 00:29:45,500
idea.
Hey man, that's okay.

576
00:29:45,500 --> 00:29:51,600
We all have our faults.
So for Roses clocks, in at 80

577
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,900
proof, the website says that
it's aged for a minimum of five

578
00:29:54,900 --> 00:29:59,000
years.
It runs 2199 for a fifth in the

579
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:00,900
state of Ohio.
So it's a super affordable

580
00:30:00,900 --> 00:30:02,600
whiskey.
Like I said, this is their

581
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,600
Baseline standard whiskey.
Now, we have a fantastic friend

582
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,100
on Instagram, called bourbon in
college.

583
00:30:09,100 --> 00:30:12,100
If you are not listening, Link
to his podcast, go check it out.

584
00:30:12,100 --> 00:30:14,800
If you're not following Bourbon
and College on Instagram, go

585
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,500
follow him right now.
But Bourbon and college is

586
00:30:17,500 --> 00:30:21,100
actually sent us four different
samples of Four Roses.

587
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,600
So maybe that's where the Four
Roses come from Brad, it

588
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,900
probably, they probably
rebranded after he sent us the

589
00:30:26,900 --> 00:30:29,700
for saying that they knew
exactly what he was doing.

590
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,200
So he sent us a sample of their
standard yellow label.

591
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,700
He sent us a small batch.
He sent us a single barrel and

592
00:30:35,700 --> 00:30:38,300
then he also sent us a small
batch select.

593
00:30:38,300 --> 00:30:41,000
So at four different points in
the coming weeks, we will be

594
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,600
trying for different kinds of
Four Roses.

595
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:45,800
Thanks to our friend bourbon in
college.

596
00:30:46,100 --> 00:30:48,600
Yeah.
Tonight's drink goes out to my

597
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,800
boy Bourbon and college.
Go check him out.

598
00:30:52,100 --> 00:30:53,600
All right, so let's get into it
Brad.

599
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,900
What are you thinking about
this?

600
00:30:55,900 --> 00:31:00,700
On the nose?
Ooh, it smells boozy doesn't

601
00:31:00,700 --> 00:31:02,200
really smell boozy to.
You see?

602
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:06,200
I'm I'm smelling mine and I
don't, it actually doesn't give

603
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,600
me a lot at all.
It seems kind of low proof.

604
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:09,900
I mean, I know that it's only 80
proof.

605
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,000
But I don't smell a lot of
ethanol.

606
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:16,400
There's not a lot going on here.
I was just pulling your chain

607
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,300
Bob.
Well, my chain has been pulled

608
00:31:19,300 --> 00:31:23,700
my friend.
So what do you actually think

609
00:31:23,700 --> 00:31:25,500
about it?
I'm getting a little bit of like

610
00:31:25,500 --> 00:31:28,700
vanilla and butterscotch.
That is so crazy.

611
00:31:28,700 --> 00:31:32,900
I'm not getting any.
So I I have a lot of Oak.

612
00:31:32,900 --> 00:31:37,600
Like I'm just smelling Oak
Barrel and almost like a like a

613
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,900
sea water.
Kind of smell like a saline.

614
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:45,300
Well but not a lot of vanilla.
Not a lot of brown sugar.

615
00:31:45,300 --> 00:31:48,700
Not a lot of maple, it smells a
little bit spicy.

616
00:31:48,700 --> 00:31:52,000
Like maybe there's a higher
rhyme Ash bill and I get a

617
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,900
little bit of fruit on it but
I'm not getting those classic

618
00:31:54,900 --> 00:31:57,900
vanilla notes that you are.
Yeah, I don't understand that

619
00:31:57,900 --> 00:32:00,600
for me right now I'm picking up
some of the vanilla I do.

620
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,100
Pick up a little bit of that
spiciness that you're talking

621
00:32:03,100 --> 00:32:05,300
about.
I can I can sense that.

622
00:32:05,300 --> 00:32:07,900
But yeah, a little bit of
vanilla and butterscotch.

623
00:32:07,900 --> 00:32:10,700
I feel like so what kind of
score was Give it on the nose

624
00:32:10,700 --> 00:32:13,100
Brad.
I'm gonna give it a seven on the

625
00:32:13,100 --> 00:32:15,200
nose.
I think it has a nice pleasant.

626
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,700
It's not offensive.
It doesn't hit you very hard.

627
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,400
I like the nose pretty well.
Well, that's good.

628
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,700
I'm actually only going to give
it a 5 on the nose.

629
00:32:22,700 --> 00:32:24,700
For me, it's just, it's not
doing it.

630
00:32:24,900 --> 00:32:27,200
I I wish that there was a little
bit more complexity.

631
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,600
I wish I was picking up some of
those things that Brad's picking

632
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,500
up, but for me, it's just a 5.
Yeah.

633
00:32:32,500 --> 00:32:33,800
So what do you think about
taste?

634
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:39,400
Let's give it a swig.
All right, so, first thing I'll

635
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,000
say is, it's really thin.
Yeah.

636
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,800
And it's not very sweet, it's a
little bit peppery.

637
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:48,000
Like I get a little bit of a
tingle from it, and I don't

638
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,600
think that's the alcohol.
I think that, you know, like we

639
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:52,500
said, there might be a little
bit more Ryan this than we're

640
00:32:52,500 --> 00:32:56,800
used to, but I'm just getting
tons and tons of Oak.

641
00:32:56,900 --> 00:33:00,500
This tastes underaged.
And I'm surprised that it says

642
00:33:00,500 --> 00:33:03,200
that it's five years minimum
because I would have sworn, this

643
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,000
was like a two-year whiskey.
Just it, it tastes like Oak,

644
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,700
that hasn't mellowed.
Yeah, I would totally agree with

645
00:33:09,700 --> 00:33:11,400
that.
It's a little bit thin.

646
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:16,700
You can tell it's watered down
to 80 proof and I still taste a

647
00:33:16,700 --> 00:33:18,700
hint of the vanilla and
butterscotch.

648
00:33:18,900 --> 00:33:21,900
But I'm getting more of that
pepper and more of that Oak that

649
00:33:21,900 --> 00:33:26,400
you smelt on the nose.
I will say the second and third

650
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,800
sip of this I really really like
it's an easy sipper and that's

651
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,300
because it's 80 proof.
It doesn't have a ton of

652
00:33:32,300 --> 00:33:34,600
character on it but it's not
bitter.

653
00:33:34,700 --> 00:33:37,500
It's Unpleasant.
It's not that astringent like

654
00:33:37,500 --> 00:33:41,500
harsh ethanol taste.
It's just it just kind of tastes

655
00:33:41,500 --> 00:33:43,600
like it hasn't been aged long
enough.

656
00:33:43,700 --> 00:33:45,100
I don't know how else to explain
it.

657
00:33:45,500 --> 00:33:47,900
Yeah I would agree.
I think I'm going to give it a 6

658
00:33:47,900 --> 00:33:50,800
on the taste.
It tastes fine.

659
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,500
It's solid.
It doesn't quite live up to the

660
00:33:53,500 --> 00:33:57,300
nose but yeah, it's easy sipper.
That's the best way to describe

661
00:33:57,300 --> 00:33:59,000
it.
I think I'm gonna give it a

662
00:33:59,008 --> 00:34:01,500
seven on the taste.
I don't dislike this.

663
00:34:01,500 --> 00:34:04,500
It just doesn't really have a
ton of character, but again, for

664
00:34:04,500 --> 00:34:09,100
an 80, Proof 21 dollar whiskey.
Like, what do you really expect?

665
00:34:09,100 --> 00:34:12,600
So I like sipping on this.
I think it's something that I

666
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,300
could have a couple glasses of
and be satisfied.

667
00:34:15,300 --> 00:34:18,100
So I'm gonna give it a seven on
the taste and that brings us to

668
00:34:18,100 --> 00:34:22,900
finish which I kind of felt was
almost non-existent.

669
00:34:23,199 --> 00:34:26,199
Like I said, it's not bitter.
It doesn't leave a bad taste in

670
00:34:26,199 --> 00:34:28,600
your mouth.
It does have that sort of spicy

671
00:34:29,199 --> 00:34:33,699
Oak flavor to it, but it
evaporates pretty quickly, which

672
00:34:33,699 --> 00:34:36,000
if you're looking for a long
con, Lex finish, you're not

673
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,100
going to find it here, but if
you're looking for something

674
00:34:38,100 --> 00:34:41,900
that you can just continually
sip on, this might be right up

675
00:34:41,900 --> 00:34:43,699
your alley.
It just depends on what you like

676
00:34:43,699 --> 00:34:46,199
on the finish.
I can't say anything that you

677
00:34:46,199 --> 00:34:48,800
didn't just say, I mean, it's an
easy sipper.

678
00:34:48,900 --> 00:34:52,300
It goes down, smooth.
It does not sit on your palate

679
00:34:52,300 --> 00:34:54,400
for very long.
You could, you can almost feel

680
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:58,500
it evaporating, as you're
swallowing, it disappears pretty

681
00:34:58,500 --> 00:35:01,900
quick, and that is a little bit
of a disappointment.

682
00:35:01,900 --> 00:35:07,000
But for $21, I'd say it's about
Right on what I'd expect.

683
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:08,500
I would say the same thing.
Brad.

684
00:35:08,500 --> 00:35:11,700
Do you generally consider
yourself to be a guy that enjoys

685
00:35:11,700 --> 00:35:14,800
a longer finish or one?
That Fades pretty quickly.

686
00:35:15,100 --> 00:35:17,100
That's actually a really hard
question.

687
00:35:17,100 --> 00:35:20,700
I I don't know the answer to
that question.

688
00:35:20,900 --> 00:35:22,200
Yeah.
I guess it depends on whether or

689
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,300
not you like the taste because,
you know, if it's like for me a

690
00:35:25,300 --> 00:35:29,000
really heavily peated, Scotch
like those have super-long

691
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,200
finishes, but they just remind
me of how much I hated the

692
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:35,000
experience of drinking it.
So I hate the finish on those.

693
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,300
For sure.
And like when you have a ride

694
00:35:37,300 --> 00:35:42,600
that's just you know 99% rye and
it sits on your palate 45

695
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:44,400
minutes after you're done
sipping on it.

696
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,600
I don't know if I enjoy that.
No same thing.

697
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,100
But again, I wish there was a
little more going on in the

698
00:35:51,100 --> 00:35:53,000
finish on this particular
whiskey.

699
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,700
So I'm just going to give it a 5
on the Finish.

700
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:57,800
Yeah, I'm gonna give it a 6 on
the finish.

701
00:35:58,700 --> 00:36:02,700
It lingers just long enough to
remind you what it did for you,

702
00:36:02,900 --> 00:36:04,900
but it doesn't stick around for
very long.

703
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,200
All right, that brings us to
overall balance.

704
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,500
We're talking knows taste and
finish on this Brad.

705
00:36:10,500 --> 00:36:13,100
How do you think the stacked up
when all things are considered,

706
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:17,200
you know, this is a really
well-balanced whiskey for all of

707
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,400
its pitfalls.
I think that the nose and The

708
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,900
Taste and the balance.
All, tell me exactly what

709
00:36:23,900 --> 00:36:26,200
they're going to do up front.
They don't trick me into

710
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:27,700
thinking.
It's something that it is.

711
00:36:27,700 --> 00:36:32,000
And I actually I'm going to give
it an 8 on balance, it's very

712
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,300
honest about what it is.
Yeah I'm going to do the same.

713
00:36:35,300 --> 00:36:37,600
I'm going to give it an eight
like you said.

714
00:36:37,900 --> 00:36:40,700
I'm not expecting a ton out of
this and I think that might be

715
00:36:40,700 --> 00:36:43,800
kind of boosting my score a
little bit but no one part of

716
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:47,100
this stuck out, which says a lot
for a cheap whiskey because

717
00:36:47,100 --> 00:36:50,000
usually either it's going to
smell too harsh on the nose or

718
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,400
it's going to taste too harsh or
it's going to finish too harsh,

719
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:56,300
but it was fairly mellow and
that may have something to do

720
00:36:56,300 --> 00:36:59,600
with the 80 proof.
But I think it still says a lot

721
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,800
that it was consistent from the
time I nosed it to after I

722
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,400
swallowed it.
So I'm going to Head and give it

723
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,600
an 8 on balance as well.
Yeah.

724
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:10,100
And when we come into the final
category of value, I think I

725
00:37:10,100 --> 00:37:12,700
initially started to think man
like yeah this is pretty good

726
00:37:12,700 --> 00:37:16,200
value but then I really started
to think about other Whiskey's

727
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:21,900
I've bought in the 2224 dollar
category and there's a lot of

728
00:37:21,900 --> 00:37:25,600
other whiskies and Bourbons.
I think I'd rather be drinking.

729
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,200
Yeah you wouldn't think that a
fifteen dollar and a twenty

730
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:32,600
dollar whiskey would be that
different but if this was

731
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,900
something that was like sitting
Sitting next to Jack Daniels or

732
00:37:35,900 --> 00:37:39,800
Jim Beam on the Shelf at fifteen
to Seventeen dollars.

733
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,000
I would think this would be an
astronomical value.

734
00:37:42,300 --> 00:37:47,400
But I mean, I paid or I guess
Bourbon and college paid as much

735
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:51,200
for this as we would have paid
for like a Weller Special

736
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,100
Reserve and we weren't super
high on Weller.

737
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,500
But at the price point I would
take Weller over this any day of

738
00:37:57,500 --> 00:37:59,400
the week.
Yeah, for sure.

739
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,400
I think I'm going to give this a
6 on value.

740
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:03,700
It's not you know it's not fully
average.

741
00:38:03,700 --> 00:38:08,600
It's Above average value, but
it's just, okay, yeah, I'm gonna

742
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,200
give it a seven on value.
I do think that it's definitely

743
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,400
above average, I still like it
for the price point, it's not

744
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,800
terrible.
I do wish it was a few dollars

745
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:20,100
cheaper, but it's not like
they're guiding people for what

746
00:38:20,100 --> 00:38:22,400
they're providing.
Yeah, I totally agree.

747
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:26,000
So that brings me out to a 33
out of 50 Bob.

748
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,200
What does that bring you to?
That brings me to a 32 out of

749
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,000
50.
Yeah, so we're like right on par

750
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:33,600
with each other.
I think we kind of think the

751
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:36,200
same The thing about this
whiskey, it's good, it's above

752
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:40,100
average, it doesn't sit with you
very long but it's a good easy

753
00:38:40,100 --> 00:38:43,000
sipper.
Yeah, I mean we come out to a 65

754
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,900
out of 100 and you know when you
just look at the score it makes

755
00:38:46,900 --> 00:38:49,000
it seem like this is a mediocre
whiskey.

756
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:50,600
I don't think that's the case at
all.

757
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,500
You know, most of our scores
have been in that 60 to 70

758
00:38:53,500 --> 00:38:55,100
range.
Except for ones that we really,

759
00:38:55,100 --> 00:38:57,500
really don't like.
And I think to say that

760
00:38:57,500 --> 00:39:01,000
something is a 65 out of 100 and
you only have to pay twenty

761
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:04,400
Twenty-One dollars for it
actually says quite a About what

762
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:08,000
they're able to do at such a low
price point and at such a low

763
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,300
proof.
Yeah, and if you are looking for

764
00:39:10,300 --> 00:39:12,800
an easy sipper, this would be
one.

765
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:16,500
I highly recommend and I guess
to get to our recommendation in

766
00:39:16,500 --> 00:39:18,100
general.
I would recommend this.

767
00:39:18,100 --> 00:39:20,700
I think it's a solid whiskey
that you should try at some

768
00:39:20,700 --> 00:39:22,400
point.
Yeah, I would too.

769
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,700
And, you know, we're not going
to be trying these four

770
00:39:24,900 --> 00:39:28,100
different samples of, for the
Four Roses line in consecutive

771
00:39:28,100 --> 00:39:30,300
weeks.
But this makes me excited to see

772
00:39:30,300 --> 00:39:33,000
what happens when we get into a
small batch when we get into a

773
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,000
singer single.
Barrel that are going to be at

774
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:39,600
higher proofs because what we're
getting at 80 proof, I'm really,

775
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:43,400
really excited about.
Yeah, and it excites me that big

776
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:47,000
companies are willing to make
products like this that are

777
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:51,200
still really high quality, but a
little bit lower on the price

778
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,100
because I think it's easy to get
into this attitude of.

779
00:39:54,100 --> 00:39:58,400
Well, if I can't spend $100 on a
bottle of, you know, liquor then

780
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,200
it's not worth it for me.
Well, not many people can do

781
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,200
that.
Most people are in the category

782
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:06,800
of I'm looking for something I
really want to enjoy but my

783
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,500
budget for, you know,
non-essentials isn't super high.

784
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,400
So what can I enjoy?
And if you're if you're in that

785
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:17,300
category, go buy some, you know,
for Roses, yellow label.

786
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,200
Absolutely well, we both
recommend.

787
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,700
I actually really enjoyed that.
Thank you again to Bourbon and

788
00:40:22,700 --> 00:40:23,700
college.
Brad.

789
00:40:23,700 --> 00:40:25,400
What do you say?
We get back into talking about

790
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:27,300
The Treasure of the Sierra
Madre.

791
00:40:27,500 --> 00:40:35,300
Let's do it.
So that was for Roses, yellow

792
00:40:35,300 --> 00:40:38,200
label, Brad and I both
recommending it and Brad, and I

793
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:41,500
both recommend this movie
Treasure of the Sierra Madre,

794
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,400
Brad.
There's a lot of different

795
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,600
directions we can go, but I just
want to take a minute and talk

796
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:50,100
some more about John Huston's
Direction in this movie.

797
00:40:50,500 --> 00:40:53,500
One of the things that I'm
shocked by every time I watch

798
00:40:53,500 --> 00:40:57,400
this movie, it's not just that
it's a really dark kind of

799
00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:01,400
cynical movie.
But it's that the only word I

800
00:41:01,408 --> 00:41:04,700
could think of to write down in
my notes was It'll it's just

801
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:09,100
there's such brutality in this
movie and it doesn't have that

802
00:41:09,100 --> 00:41:14,500
sort of Classic Hollywood Sheen
of the violence is covered up

803
00:41:14,500 --> 00:41:18,000
and you don't see anything.
I mean you get it like really

804
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,800
early on in the movie when
Bogart and Tim Holtz characters

805
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,800
have been working like hard
labor for this guy who's

806
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:28,500
supposed to pay them and then
stands them up and they find him

807
00:41:28,500 --> 00:41:31,600
they track him down in a bar and
they just beat him to a pulp and

808
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:35,300
that fight scene goes on for
like Four minutes, and it's

809
00:41:35,300 --> 00:41:39,100
literally like it was like a
Goodfellas stomping of this guy

810
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:41,600
and it happened like
40-something years before.

811
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:45,000
Goodfellas was filmed, I was
shocked at how brutal that fight

812
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,400
scene was, oh, for sure.
And I think, I think maybe that

813
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:52,500
scene is, why you have hope for
Humphrey Bogart's character

814
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,200
because they didn't just robbed
the man blind.

815
00:41:55,300 --> 00:41:58,100
They took the money that he
said, he would pay them for

816
00:41:58,100 --> 00:42:02,000
working on the oil rig, and then
they left him the rest.

817
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:03,800
And then they paid the bartender
and says, Ed.

818
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,300
Hey, thanks for the use of the
bar.

819
00:42:05,300 --> 00:42:07,600
We apologize.
We're heading out.

820
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:11,000
And so there's that kind of hope
that he's not just going to you

821
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:15,000
know be a greedy son of a gun
that he's actually a decent

822
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:16,200
person at heart.
You know.

823
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:19,700
I thought about that seen a lot
after it and I part of me

824
00:42:19,700 --> 00:42:23,200
wonders though if it's because
Tim Holt was there with him

825
00:42:23,300 --> 00:42:25,700
because he pulls the money out
of that guy's wallet and he's

826
00:42:25,700 --> 00:42:28,200
counting it out and he says
like, you know what does he owe

827
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,400
us 300 and then Tim Holtz says
yes.

828
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:34,300
And then he says okay and part
of me wonders if Fred see Jobs

829
00:42:34,500 --> 00:42:39,100
had beat that guy up on his own.
Would he have felt the need to

830
00:42:39,100 --> 00:42:41,600
be as upstanding?
Or would he have just robbed

831
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,700
that guy blind and I love that
you said Fred C Dobbs there.

832
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:49,400
I think one of the best
caricatures of his character is

833
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,400
when Humphrey Bogart says a few
times throughout the movie.

834
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:56,800
Well I'm Fred C Dobbs and I have
my rights and he says it like he

835
00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:00,100
is somebody like you're supposed
to know his name, right?

836
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,600
But just going back to that
fight scene, you know the first

837
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,000
First thing, I wrote down in my
notes was about the guy that

838
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,600
they beat up because he starts
the fight, he knows he's

839
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,600
cornered and he hits, I think
Bogart like over the head with a

840
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,600
bottle and the first thing I
wrote was, why would that guy

841
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:19,500
throw a punch against two guys?
Like knowing he's going to lose

842
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,900
and I came to the realization
that like this fight.

843
00:43:22,900 --> 00:43:27,700
Scene is a foreshadowing of the
whole movie because that guy is

844
00:43:27,700 --> 00:43:31,700
so greedy and so protective of
his money that he will get

845
00:43:31,700 --> 00:43:35,300
himself in a fight that he knows
he And win just to try to

846
00:43:35,300 --> 00:43:37,500
protect what little bit of money
he has.

847
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:42,100
And it shows early early on the
lengths, people will go when

848
00:43:42,100 --> 00:43:46,100
they become obsessed with wealth
with money with gold.

849
00:43:46,100 --> 00:43:49,100
It was actually a really, really
interesting piece of

850
00:43:49,100 --> 00:43:52,000
foreshadowing that you might not
have seen like on first glance.

851
00:43:52,100 --> 00:43:55,800
Yeah, I really was interested by
John Huston's choice to split

852
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:59,400
the movie into that.
You have that foreshadowing.

853
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,500
I mean it's like 40 minutes of
the movie when he's kind of a

854
00:44:02,508 --> 00:44:05,900
hobo and he finds that At job
working on the oil rig and then

855
00:44:05,900 --> 00:44:09,000
they beat that guy up and that
kind of transitions you into the

856
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,900
second half of the movie.
But like you said, the first

857
00:44:12,900 --> 00:44:17,900
little bit of the movie is a
full, you know, foreshadowing of

858
00:44:17,900 --> 00:44:21,400
what's going to happen in the
entire second half of the movie

859
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:23,900
and you're right.
That is it's a brilliant use of

860
00:44:23,900 --> 00:44:27,400
foreshadowing that you don't
even realize until after the

861
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,500
movie when you're talking about
it on a podcast.

862
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:31,800
Yeah for sure.
And I think part of that goes

863
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:35,000
back to the fact that this movie
was a Opted from a novel of the

864
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:38,300
same name and as you watch it
play out on screen.

865
00:44:38,300 --> 00:44:41,800
You really do understand that.
Like yeah this definitely came

866
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:45,500
from a book because if this was
an original screenplay I can

867
00:44:45,500 --> 00:44:48,200
just see some.
You know, some executive

868
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:50,100
somewhere saying, cut this cut
this cut.

869
00:44:50,100 --> 00:44:53,900
This get us out into the
Wilderness quicker, but they

870
00:44:53,900 --> 00:44:56,600
really take their time.
Setting up the themes of the

871
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,600
movie and as you watch it, you
may not understand exactly where

872
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,300
it's going because it does seem
like it takes forever to get out

873
00:45:02,300 --> 00:45:04,400
there.
But Once they get out there,

874
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:08,700
they can get you plunged really
quickly into the greed, the

875
00:45:08,700 --> 00:45:12,200
suspicion, the denials the
frustration, the jealousy

876
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,900
because they've set those things
up so well on the front end of

877
00:45:14,900 --> 00:45:17,000
the movie.
Yeah, I will say one of my

878
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:20,600
frustrations with the movie is
that there are certain times

879
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:23,400
where Humphrey Bogart's
character makes assumptions.

880
00:45:23,900 --> 00:45:28,400
That I I just shake my head at
and I'm like man like you're

881
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:32,400
jumping at shadows and not in a
way that would make any logical

882
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:34,700
sense.
But Maybe that's the whole point

883
00:45:34,700 --> 00:45:37,900
is to say that you know, the
Greed for gold brings about

884
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:41,900
Madness and you know illogical
thinking, I don't know, I

885
00:45:41,900 --> 00:45:44,600
struggle with some of those
scenes as well and for me it was

886
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:46,800
because I didn't think the
writing was fantastic.

887
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:50,900
Like the dialogue didn't sound
natural and Bogart does his best

888
00:45:50,900 --> 00:45:54,400
with that but there's so many
times where he's like ah yes I

889
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,500
see that your plan all along was
for me to get descended upon by

890
00:45:57,500 --> 00:46:01,600
Bandits and it's like who thinks
to talk like that when you

891
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:03,500
haven't slept in four hours?
Yeah.

892
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,700
Yeah, that that is the best way
of putting it.

893
00:46:05,700 --> 00:46:09,600
A lot of the dialogue just felt
stilted whenever he was getting

894
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:13,800
angry and upset about things but
I will say that I do think from

895
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:18,100
a director standpoint Houston
does such a good job of

896
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:21,700
introducing this kind of
creeping sense of dread that you

897
00:46:21,700 --> 00:46:25,000
know, something's coming and it
really happens well in the

898
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:29,300
close-ups that he uses like I'm
thinking about the shots in one

899
00:46:29,300 --> 00:46:32,600
of the first nights when they're
all back in the tent and they

900
00:46:32,607 --> 00:46:35,200
decide to split.
All the gold up three ways and

901
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,700
you see Walter Huston pouring
the gold into the bags and

902
00:46:38,700 --> 00:46:42,400
they're all watching the bags.
They they're already like

903
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:46,600
licking their lips, looking at
this gold and then you see their

904
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:48,600
eyes dart back and forth to each
other.

905
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:51,700
And it's like they're already
suspicious of each other.

906
00:46:51,700 --> 00:46:55,200
And, you know, like, right from
that point on, there's no way

907
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:57,300
this can end.
Well, yeah, there's something

908
00:46:57,300 --> 00:46:58,600
about the directing in this
movie.

909
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:02,100
I loved the, the phrase you use
the creeping sense of dread

910
00:47:02,100 --> 00:47:05,300
this.
V really reminded me of an

911
00:47:05,300 --> 00:47:10,000
Alfred Hitchcock movie it with
his use of Silence, with his use

912
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:13,000
of, you know, slight bits of
humor to like offset.

913
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:17,500
The, the horror that, you know,
is about to unfold like, the

914
00:47:17,500 --> 00:47:21,600
entire time, you know, something
bad is going to happen and it's

915
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:25,600
a suspenseful movie and I
haven't seen a suspenseful movie

916
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,800
like that outside of many
Hitchcock films.

917
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:31,300
I actually think that's a really
good comparison because

918
00:47:31,300 --> 00:47:34,400
Hitchcock, really like to toy.
With the audience.

919
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,100
And, you know, a lot of times
you walk that fine line between

920
00:47:37,100 --> 00:47:41,300
really suspenseful horrific
things and really Darkly funny

921
00:47:41,300 --> 00:47:45,500
things and I feel like there's
one scene in this movie, you

922
00:47:45,500 --> 00:47:49,100
know, the scene where they've
all hidden their goods out in

923
00:47:49,100 --> 00:47:51,200
the wilderness.
And they don't want each other

924
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,500
to find out where all their
goods are hidden and one night,

925
00:47:53,500 --> 00:47:56,600
you know, one of the characters
wakes up and one of the other

926
00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:59,500
characters is you know, out
relieving himself or something

927
00:47:59,500 --> 00:48:03,800
and it starts this scene where
each guy has to get up and go

928
00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,300
out and check on whether his
goods are still there.

929
00:48:06,300 --> 00:48:09,000
And then the other guys are
waking up and getting suspicious

930
00:48:09,500 --> 00:48:12,300
and at its core.
That's a comedy scene.

931
00:48:12,300 --> 00:48:14,700
Like, that's the kind of thing.
You would see in like a Marx

932
00:48:14,700 --> 00:48:18,500
Brothers movie, but Houston,
takes it and the actors play it.

933
00:48:18,500 --> 00:48:20,900
So straight that it plays for
suspense.

934
00:48:20,900 --> 00:48:24,200
It's a really, really
suspenseful scene but at its

935
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,500
heart like it's actually a
comedy routine.

936
00:48:26,900 --> 00:48:30,500
Oh, for sure, there, you could
see the Three Stooges doing that

937
00:48:30,500 --> 00:48:33,400
exact same scene, but they'd be
moving a lot faster.

938
00:48:33,700 --> 00:48:35,500
And everybody would be laughing
at them.

939
00:48:35,700 --> 00:48:38,700
Yeah for sure.
Houston uses it but Houston uses

940
00:48:38,700 --> 00:48:41,800
it in such a way that you you
just kind of feel it's creeping.

941
00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,100
Dread of, you know, is one of
them going to shoot each other

942
00:48:44,100 --> 00:48:47,700
in the middle of the night, you
know, what's going to happen and

943
00:48:47,700 --> 00:48:50,700
I think that kind of gets us
into like our final analysis on

944
00:48:50,707 --> 00:48:52,400
the movie.
You know, I've said a couple

945
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:55,200
times at this is a really
cynical movie and I don't know

946
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,000
if cynical is the right word,
but I've spent a lot of time

947
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:00,500
trying to figure out the overall
message of the movie.

948
00:49:00,500 --> 00:49:03,400
Is it just that greed corrupts
or is there something more?

949
00:49:03,500 --> 00:49:07,200
Going on because you know Brad
hinted at this earlier in the

950
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,800
episode.
The end of the movie is that it

951
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:13,500
ends up that.
Humphrey Bogart tries to kill

952
00:49:13,500 --> 00:49:18,200
Tim Holtz character Holt doesn't
actually die, but Bogart ends up

953
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:21,900
with all of the gold and then he
gets descended upon by Bandits.

954
00:49:21,900 --> 00:49:24,500
They murder him, the bandits
don't recognize that.

955
00:49:24,500 --> 00:49:26,500
The gold is what's actually in
the bags, they think.

956
00:49:26,500 --> 00:49:29,900
It's just, you know, dust and
they scatter it to the winds

957
00:49:30,300 --> 00:49:33,300
Walter Huston and Tim Holt come
riding into town and they find

958
00:49:33,300 --> 00:49:35,300
out.
All their gold is gone and they

959
00:49:35,300 --> 00:49:40,600
laugh at the irony of everything
and on face value, it kind of

960
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:44,300
seems like a really nihilistic
ending, like all of this has

961
00:49:44,300 --> 00:49:47,100
been for nothing.
It doesn't really seem to give a

962
00:49:47,107 --> 00:49:51,700
lot of Hope about what all of
our work is for, in life.

963
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,000
I think that for me, I read a
more positive ending into the

964
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:59,500
movie that, you know, all the
wealth in the world is not worth

965
00:49:59,500 --> 00:50:14,000
the value of your soul.
Oh boy, it's a great job paid on

966
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:16,300
this for the Lord or faint,
their nature, whatever you

967
00:50:16,300 --> 00:50:18,600
prefer.
But whoever or whatever plan is

968
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:22,200
turned, the in a sense of humor,
the gold is gone back to where

969
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:40,000
we found it.
And Humphrey Bogart loses his

970
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,200
soul, to the corruption of
wealth.

971
00:50:42,700 --> 00:50:47,100
And, you know, Tim Holtz is able
to resist that, and he's able to

972
00:50:47,100 --> 00:50:50,300
go on to do good in the world,
you know, Walter Walter

973
00:50:50,300 --> 00:50:52,500
Houston's character, says, hey,
I'm going to give you all the

974
00:50:52,508 --> 00:50:55,800
money that we get from selling
the donkeys and, and pretty much

975
00:50:55,800 --> 00:51:00,100
everything that I have.
And why don't you go up to, to

976
00:51:00,100 --> 00:51:05,000
Texas and call on the Widow of
Man that we kind of in a sense,

977
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,800
killed right?
And, you know, pay her respects

978
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:09,900
and tell her about how her
husband died.

979
00:51:10,100 --> 00:51:12,400
And then why don't you go off,
you know, and enjoy what you

980
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,000
wanted.
Enjoy all along, which was

981
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:17,300
peaches and fruit season.
Yeah, and I think that a good

982
00:51:17,300 --> 00:51:20,300
microcosm of that is even
earlier in the movie, when that

983
00:51:20,300 --> 00:51:24,900
fourth guy, Cody dies and it
happens in the course of Bandits

984
00:51:24,900 --> 00:51:28,600
coming to attack their camp, and
they fight all the bandits off

985
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:32,400
and they're like in the midst of
celebrating winning this battle.

986
00:51:32,500 --> 00:51:34,700
Oh, and then they look down and
they remember that there's a

987
00:51:34,700 --> 00:51:37,300
dead guy there at their feet and
it's there, you know, this guy

988
00:51:37,300 --> 00:51:41,600
Cody and they just kind of look
at his dead body and say like,

989
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,100
oh, what are we going to do with
this and Bogart looks down?

990
00:51:44,100 --> 00:51:48,600
And says, oh yeah, him and it
reminds you that in Dobbs is

991
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:51,200
eyes.
Human life, ultimately is really

992
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:52,400
cheap.
Like he doesn't care.

993
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:55,300
One, bit about that guy.
And then you see Tim Holt pull

994
00:51:55,300 --> 00:51:57,600
the letter out of his pocket,
read the letter, it gives that

995
00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:01,300
character a backstory and it
reminds you even at that point.

996
00:52:02,100 --> 00:52:06,200
That there are some things that
are more important than the

997
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,900
pursuit of wealth, the pursuit
of gold and Dobbs, clearly

998
00:52:09,900 --> 00:52:13,100
doesn't see it even if the other
two guys do and I think that

999
00:52:13,100 --> 00:52:17,300
that truly is the moral of this
story is that there are, there's

1000
00:52:17,300 --> 00:52:21,400
things more valuable in this
world than money and wealth.

1001
00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:25,500
And that it's not worth giving
up your soul for something that

1002
00:52:25,500 --> 00:52:30,200
is so transitory and you have it
one day and you lose it, the

1003
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:34,100
next and that the The important
things in this world are

1004
00:52:34,100 --> 00:52:36,700
valuing.
Human life of caring for one,

1005
00:52:36,700 --> 00:52:40,000
another of truly taking care of
one another in this life.

1006
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:43,700
And you see that in Tim, you
know, Tim Holt and you see the

1007
00:52:43,700 --> 00:52:46,900
lack of it and Humphrey, Bogart,
and the movie tells you what

1008
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:49,700
each type of life gets.
Yeah.

1009
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:52,600
So Brad, why don't we go ahead
and score this bad boy out.

1010
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:54,400
I'm excited to hear what you
thought of it.

1011
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:56,100
What kind of a score?
Would you?

1012
00:52:56,100 --> 00:52:58,600
Give this movie out of 10?
And would you recommend it?

1013
00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:01,700
Yeah, I mean, starting with the
bad there are certain parts of

1014
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:04,300
This movie where, you know,
Walter Huston is hammin it up

1015
00:53:04,300 --> 00:53:07,900
and he's looking at the camera.
He's also doing some sort of

1016
00:53:07,900 --> 00:53:10,300
weird Medicine Man.
Ritual with this little boy,

1017
00:53:10,300 --> 00:53:12,900
where he's raising his arms up
into town and like we didn't

1018
00:53:12,900 --> 00:53:15,800
even talk about that.
Like that scene for me.

1019
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,400
First of all, it's like 48
minutes long.

1020
00:53:18,500 --> 00:53:19,900
It's so long.
Yes.

1021
00:53:19,900 --> 00:53:22,400
And, and when you look at what
he's actually doing, like,

1022
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:24,300
literally, all he's doing is
making the kid.

1023
00:53:24,300 --> 00:53:28,000
Do like jumping jacks and that's
like his, that's his form of

1024
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:30,800
medicine.
Yeah, I Walter Huston knows how

1025
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:34,900
to do a magic.
That I have no clue about so

1026
00:53:34,900 --> 00:53:38,200
there's certain things like that
and certain parts of Humphrey

1027
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:41,000
Bogart's dialogue that we
already said was pretty rough

1028
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:45,100
when he gets kind of maniacal.
So it's not a perfect movie.

1029
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,500
However is it a 9 out of 10?
Yes.

1030
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:53,400
Like this is a phenomenal movie
it tells a good story and I

1031
00:53:53,408 --> 00:53:58,200
think it offers a very important
message that is applicable to

1032
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:01,600
All Humans in all times.
Yeah I'd go one step further.

1033
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,300
Than that, you know, this used
to be at one point in my life.

1034
00:54:04,300 --> 00:54:07,300
This was like, in my top 10
movies of all time, I do think

1035
00:54:07,300 --> 00:54:10,800
I've come down a little bit
since then, but I would still

1036
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:13,900
get this movie a 9 and a half.
You know, if you remove that

1037
00:54:13,900 --> 00:54:18,800
ridiculous breaking the fourth
wall by Walter Huston and some

1038
00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:22,200
of those lines of dialogue, like
you said, this movie is nearly

1039
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:26,000
perfect and it was doing
something at a time where

1040
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:28,500
movies.
Just didn't do it like filming

1041
00:54:28,500 --> 00:54:31,600
on location getting into this
really, really harsh.

1042
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:36,100
Cynical.
Look at greed and the brutality

1043
00:54:36,100 --> 00:54:39,200
of violence is stuff.
You didn't see in a movie in

1044
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:43,400
1948, and that I think is what
helps it hold up in 2019.

1045
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:46,800
So I'm going to give this movie
a nine and a half, that brings

1046
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:51,500
our average out to a 9.25.
So, I think we'd both definitely

1047
00:54:51,500 --> 00:54:54,200
recommend this movie.
Yeah, highly recommend.

1048
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,800
And and like I said earlier, in
this movie about like, Clint

1049
00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,000
Eastwood.
You don't have the gritty

1050
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:04,000
realism of Clint Eastwood.
If you Don't have, you know, the

1051
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,300
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre
for sure.

1052
00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:08,100
But we want to know what you

I'm Bob book, I'm Brad, she will
see you next time.

1071
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:31,800
There is one thing I want to say
about Humphrey Bogart is there a

1072
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:33,400
way that I can like lead into
it?

1073
00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:35,400
Or is it just going to be like a
random observation?

1074
00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:39,600
Probably probably a random
observation.

1075
00:56:40,500 --> 00:56:43,100
You're so mysterious.
Yeah, you know me so.

1076
00:56:43,100 --> 00:56:45,500
Well now I'm just going to say
he looks exactly like Hugh

1077
00:56:45,500 --> 00:56:48,400
Jackman.
What he look.

1078
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:52,200
Are you serious in?
Oh 100%, he looks exactly like

1079
00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:54,700
Hugh Jackman with a beard.
You're insane man.

1080
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:58,400
Have you seen him without know?
He looks like a potato Humphrey

1081
00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:01,800
Bogart or You Jackman Humphrey
Bogart Hugh Jackman looks like

1082
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,800
he was chiseled by the gods.
What do you Humphrey?

1083
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:09,000
Bogart looks like if you if you
melted the plastic on a mr.

1084
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:14,200
Potato Head.
And then left a man and then

1085
00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:18,000
left it to baked in the hot.
Mexican Sun for months for 10

1086
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:19,400
months.
In a gold mine.

1087
00:57:19,500 --> 00:57:22,700
Exactly.
If you just look at his face in

1088
00:57:22,700 --> 00:57:26,900
this movie, he looks exactly
like Hugh Jackman with a beard.

1089
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:29,300
I'm gonna make a pull out of
this audience to Graham, we're

1090
00:57:29,308 --> 00:57:31,500
gonna see what people think this
is going to be the outtake for

1091
00:57:31,500 --> 00:57:37,400
this episode perfect.
Hello.

1092
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:39,500
Hi.
Do you like bad movies?

1093
00:57:39,500 --> 00:57:42,200
Do you find yourself defending
bad movies saying things like?

1094
00:57:42,300 --> 00:57:46,200
Well, the soundtrack was, okay,
or the costumes were pretty fun

1095
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:48,500
from the previous host of.
It's not that bad podcast.

1096
00:57:48,500 --> 00:57:51,500
We bring you fresh tomatoes, the
movie podcast from Simone LaRue,

1097

We review two movies that did

1098
00:57:54,500 --> 00:57:57,000
not do well critically.
What we say, hey, there are some

1099
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,700
nice things about them, maybe
Rotten Tomatoes was wrong, maybe

1100
00:57:59,700 --> 00:58:01,600
they're all fools, and you
should watch these movies,

1101
00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:03,300
regardless.
We'll also talk about seems they

1102
00:58:03,300 --> 00:58:06,000
could have saved it and will
often refer to some owns cats.

1103
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:08,300
Because they're amazing and
adorable and we love them.

1104
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:10,300
And at the end of each review,
we will tell you whether we

1105
00:58:10,300 --> 00:58:12,800
would watch this movie again.
Aaron what circumstances we

1106
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:14,100
