Jonathan Lynn - Greedy

WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:05.240
Here is the question I have for
you today, Amber, and your answer

2
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:13.400
cannot be the Back to the Future
trilogy. Okay. Having said that,

3
00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:19.839
I want to know what your favorite
Michael Jackson film is. How about Michael

4
00:00:19.920 --> 00:00:25.719
J. Fox? How about how
about Michael J. Fox? Yeah?

5
00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:29.559
I don't I don't want to know
what your favorite Michael Michael Jackson movie is.

6
00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:33.159
I wish I had the Dorean right
now, I'd go back in time.

7
00:00:35.399 --> 00:00:39.600
No, okay, Michael J.
Fox. What is your favorite Michael

8
00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:44.640
J. Fox film? Doc Hollywood? Don't even have to think about it.

9
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.079
Shooting from the Hip Doc Hollywood.
Yeah, that's a good one too.

10
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.840
Yeah. I when you think about
his fhmography, because everyone always thinks

11
00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:57.520
about Martin McFly, but he has
done so many amazing performances. I think

12
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:00.880
I would have to say Casualty of
War. Have you seen that one?

13
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:08.920
It's such a brutal movie. It's
not it's not like it's not one of

14
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:11.439
those it's not one of those war
films that you want to watch all the

15
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:17.640
time. It's more like, I've
I've experienced it. I've I've seen it.

16
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:21.719
It's it's brilliant, it has an
important message, and I maybe don't

17
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:25.439
want to watch it for a long
time now, but yes, and it's

18
00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:30.599
funny. Ever, Yeah, No, I think Foxes is amazing in that

19
00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:36.120
in casually in Brian de Palmer's Casualties
of War, and he's not alone.

20
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:42.079
Sean Penn is also at his at
his best, his villainous best. I

21
00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:44.879
know, you guys on Docum based
seventy seven, you guys just talked about

22
00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:49.840
Seawanpinn. Uh last week when you
guys covered Milk and you guys were talking

23
00:01:49.879 --> 00:01:56.599
about favorite Sean pinn performances. You
you have my pick. You had missed

24
00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:01.920
Mystic River. Definitely seanpins moment.
I think so that whole movie is just

25
00:02:04.120 --> 00:02:08.919
stellar, but him in it especially
is really really powerful. And then to

26
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:15.080
see him go from you know,
that performance to Milk is just you can't

27
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:20.960
believe it's the same guy. You
can't All before this turns into the Sean

28
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:25.400
Penn Hour, back to Michael J. Fox. Let's talk about another Michael

29
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:31.719
J. Fox performance that is that's
awesome and a little lesser known. Let's

30
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:38.360
talk about a film by Jonathan Lynn, his nineteen ninety four underrated comedy classic

31
00:02:38.000 --> 00:03:07.000
Greedy. Hello, everybody, I'm

48
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:26.720
so we did this. We got
this new thing, we're doing ten for

49
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:31.360
two where we take ten minutes,
a tight ten minutes to talk about two

50
00:04:31.399 --> 00:04:35.759
minutes of some of our favorite favorite
moments and some of our favorite films.

51
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:40.879
So we watched The Untouchables because of
the first one. You did well,

52
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:45.319
thank you. Yeah. Yeah,
this past Saturday we did. Andrew had

53
00:04:45.319 --> 00:04:49.959
a had a great two minute scene
from Disney's Up that I didn't think was

54
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:55.480
such a such a poignant moment,
but then I was prove I was proven

55
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:59.120
wrong quickly. So loved it.
But tell you what else I love.

56
00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:03.360
I love the film Greedy Amber.
For those that have not seen this film,

57
00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:06.959
can you can you give us a
brief synopsis of what it's all about.

58
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:14.319
So it's about Uncle Joe who is
a multi millionaire and has all of

59
00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:20.399
his relatives circling around to find out
who's going to inherit his millions, and

60
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:27.000
they're just waiting like vultures for him
to die. These are not the nicest

61
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:30.839
people, are they. Oh they
are horrible. They're just the worst.

62
00:05:31.519 --> 00:05:34.120
Yeah, this was this is the
first time watch for you, was it

63
00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:38.839
not? Yes? Okay, I
had heard about it, you know,

64
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:44.839
but just had never watched it.
Yeah, the film. Surprisingly, the

65
00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:48.600
film is based on the Charles Dickens
novel The Life and Adventures of Martin Chuzzlewit,

66
00:05:49.480 --> 00:05:53.480
which tells the story of a family
that waits around for a wealthy relative

67
00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:59.680
relative to die. These relatives,
man, they are first off, comedic

68
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:04.040
old mine here right. Yes,
it is a who's who in this family

69
00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:10.000
of comedic talent. I love this
family. I love to watch him.

70
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:12.639
You want to, let's just go
ahead and get to them. I was

71
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:15.879
gonna say, I'm kind of jumping
ahead, but if you unfortunately we lost

72
00:06:16.519 --> 00:06:21.879
the great Phil Hartman way too young, way too soon. And if you

73
00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:27.639
aren't of that generation by e my
generation that got to watch him on Saurday

74
00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:30.399
Night Live, and you don't know, like, what the heck is it

75
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:36.800
all about? Like the man is
a genius. He is absolutely like the

76
00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:40.839
funniest part of this movie. I
think I told you, If I'm not

77
00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:45.319
mistaken, I told you when we
talked about doing this film. I think

78
00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:48.560
I think the one of my selling
points was one of my favorite, my

79
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:54.959
all time favorite Phil Hartman performances,
because I know the last time, the

80
00:06:55.040 --> 00:07:00.120
last time that we were together we
talked about a film a dark comedy that

81
00:07:00.439 --> 00:07:04.120
that I absolutely love. But you
you were not much of a fan of

82
00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:11.759
If quickly, if we could do
like a previously on a film by we

83
00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:16.439
were, we covered the film.
We did Alexander Payne's Election, which you

84
00:07:16.480 --> 00:07:21.800
were really too happy with, but
I was not. But you know,

85
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:27.839
especially when The Descendants is right there, you introduced me to Alexander Payne,

86
00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:31.079
and I found such a much better
movie. Yeah, I feel like I

87
00:07:31.439 --> 00:07:33.720
kind of feel like there was a
little bit of redemption because I know,

88
00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:38.920
I know that kind of opened the
door for you to Alexander Payne. You

89
00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:41.800
you saw The Descendants and you know, I know you're a fan of that

90
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:48.600
one. You saw Sideways, Yes, really and still I when we when

91
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:51.120
we did Election, I had not
seen The Holdovers, and I'm here to

92
00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:58.120
tell you must watch film. I
remember you saying like you'd already seen Dead

93
00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:03.319
Poets Society. Yes, yeah,
it's Dead Poets Society if the teacher is

94
00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:09.360
a jerk. So no, I'm
telling you, Amber, please watch The

95
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:13.160
Holdovers. It is an incredible and
it's just a it's just a great movie.

96
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.480
You'll love it. I think,
I truly think you'll love it.

97
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:20.360
So yeah, we had some homework
there and we got we got it done.

98
00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:22.600
But anyways, back to back to
this comedy, I felt like,

99
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:26.560
okay, here's some this is more
like actually a comedy. Yeah. I

100
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:30.279
was like, you know what,
I will win her back with greedy because

101
00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:33.679
there's no way she's not gonna love
this one. But uh, let's start

102
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:39.879
with the patriarch of the film,
Kirk Douglas playing Uncle Joe. Well,

103
00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:43.240
here's the thing that I wish I
didn't know before the movie, which is

104
00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:48.600
this is the last movie that he
did before his stroke. Yeah, and

105
00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:54.879
to see how just I mean,
in his seventies, how just amazingly energetic

106
00:08:54.960 --> 00:09:01.879
and on it and virile and funny
and just amazing he was. And to

107
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:07.080
know how debilitating that stroke was,
you know, was just a little bit

108
00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:11.320
I think about that. You like
watching it again, you know, obviously

109
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:16.440
that comes to mind. But at
the same time, we've talked about actors

110
00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:20.039
who, you know, why couldn't
if you were gonna do one last movie,

111
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:22.519
why couldn't you end on a high
note? Like I think we talked

112
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:24.519
about that with Jack Nicholson when we
did The Witches of Eastwick. You and

113
00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:31.080
I, yes, if more Yeah, if you look at if you look

114
00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:35.519
at Kirk Douglas's career, because after
after his stroke, he does some TV

115
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:41.320
spot you know, some TV episodes. He does one or two independent films.

116
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:45.279
But as far as like big release
movies, this is him going on

117
00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:48.799
on a high note. I feel
like this is this is one last great

118
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:54.279
performance. He is strong, he
is spry, amber he beats out Paul

119
00:09:54.360 --> 00:10:00.919
Newman, Anthony Quinn and Jack lemonon
because, according to Bri, wouldn't Paul

120
00:10:00.960 --> 00:10:03.000
Newman would have been awesome as Uncle
Joe. I'm not gonna lie, Uh

121
00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:09.240
been good. Anthony Quinn would have
been a little distracting. I think Jack

122
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:13.000
lemon maybe a little too nice.
Yeah, well, hey, Stuvee,

123
00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:18.200
have you seen have you seen Glenn
Gary Glenn Ross. Well but he's a

124
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:22.759
wusson that he's not one of the
Well he's yeah, but he's mouthy.

125
00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:26.320
But uh, I mean Paul Newman, I could have watched I could have

126
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:31.360
watched this, but I'm glad.
I'm glad that it's Kirk Douglas because,

127
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:37.360
uh, Uncle Joe has to be
spry, strong, you know, witty,

128
00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:39.840
like all the all the all the
things you said about him. Douglas

129
00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:43.440
was set to take a trip to
Europe and Israel with his wife. When

130
00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:48.879
Brian Grazer sent him the script.
The producer Brian Grazer, he claimed he

131
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:52.080
could not resist the part, so
he canceled the trip. No no word

132
00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:54.080
on what Missus Douglas had to say
about that, but uh, I mean

133
00:10:54.600 --> 00:10:58.960
that which is probably used to it. Yeah. At the time, Douglas

134
00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:03.360
was quoted as saying, I've done
eighty films and I've been writing books for

135
00:11:03.399 --> 00:11:07.279
several years, so I wasn't looking
for just another picture. But this one

136
00:11:07.320 --> 00:11:13.600
is something special. It's wonderful to
play a character who's so incurably manipulative.

137
00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:16.600
Yeah, love Kirk Douglass in this. And but you know, this is

138
00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:20.360
a huge cast, it's a big
ensemble, so you know we'll probably have

139
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:24.919
to speed up a little bit.
But let's talk about Olivia Diabo. She

140
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:31.120
plays Molly, his sexy nurse.
And I'll say this right now in my

141
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:37.080
notes the word nurses in quotations.
Right, what do you think of Olivia?

142
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:41.600
I mean she was there to be
beautiful, and she is, so

143
00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:50.639
you know that was fine. She
well, Hollywood has always given us the

144
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:56.960
the bimbo, the gold digger.
There's plenty. There's hundreds of actresses that

145
00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:01.559
have done those that kind of that
trope. Yeah, I kind of feel

146
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:03.919
like she's not doing that though,
Like the whole time I'm watching it,

147
00:12:03.960 --> 00:12:07.399
I don't feel like she's out to
get his money. No, Like,

148
00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:13.679
even in some of the scenes where
it appeared that she was, yeah,

149
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:18.159
I wasn't one hundred percent sold on
her character's ability to do that. It

150
00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:24.159
just seemed like she was a truly
nice person that was not comfortable with that.

151
00:12:26.120 --> 00:12:30.399
I I'll tell you right now.
For me, she will ever be,

152
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:33.720
She will forever be Princess Jenna in
nineteen eighty four's Conan the Destroyer.

153
00:12:35.559 --> 00:12:39.320
I know a lot of people like, go, that's her. Yeah,

154
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:41.039
Oh my gosh. I know a
lot of people said that. I could

155
00:12:41.039 --> 00:12:43.679
see her in my head. Yeah. I know a lot of people connect

156
00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:46.399
her to the Wonder Years. But
that's what I thought. She was the

157
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:50.600
older sister on the Wonder Yeah,
older sister. Sadly, her last big

158
00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:56.200
picture was Star Wars The Rise of
Skywalker. Yeah exactly, you're shaking your

159
00:12:56.200 --> 00:12:58.840
head. Well, what I help
have I told you? She played uh,

160
00:13:00.159 --> 00:13:03.720
the fan favorite character Luminara. I
mean, yeah, exactly. I

161
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:07.639
waited with bated breath for her to
show up, Like, who the hell

162
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:11.480
is that? Even right now,
I couldn't tell you, you know,

163
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:15.480
because that I have to ask my
son, because I'm sure I'll ask him

164
00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:18.000
and he'll be like, oh,
that's so and so. Yeah, she

165
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:24.159
played an alien and whatever. I
don't remember the role. I don't remember

166
00:13:24.200 --> 00:13:30.159
that movie. I tried to possibly
unrecognizable so well. Is as is the

167
00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:33.919
film The Rise of Skywalker as a
as a Star Wars film. So now,

168
00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:37.519
but you know what she's also,
she's been busy her entire career.

169
00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:45.120
She's done tons of voice acting credits, mostly DC animated films and TV shows.

170
00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:50.360
Yeah, super awesome. So that
community is so much bigger than I

171
00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:56.039
ever realized it is. It is
uh As As she as She's as,

172
00:13:56.039 --> 00:14:00.519
she tells the Magtigues, I'm I'm
I'm fun to hang out, I'm fun

173
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:05.080
to look at, and she definitely
is. Yeah. I like Olivia Diabo,

174
00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:11.600
Michael J. Fox as Danny mctigue. I mean when he showed up

175
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:16.440
on the screen, I just flashed
back to that was kind of like his

176
00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:24.080
heyday, like in the nineties.
Yeah, and just the talent and the

177
00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:31.039
charm and the charisma. I mean, he's just like no other. If

178
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:37.840
the eighties was Michael J. Fox
the rising child star, you know,

179
00:14:37.320 --> 00:14:43.399
Family Ties and Back to the Future, the nineties was the adult Michael J.

180
00:14:43.559 --> 00:14:48.679
Fox well and in control of yes, the movies that he was in

181
00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:52.960
that he was leading. This is
the second film in a three picture deal

182
00:14:54.279 --> 00:14:58.879
with Universal that also included for Lover, Money and The Frighteners. Frighteners is

183
00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:03.919
right, Peter Jackson. We covered
that one a couple seasons ago, so

184
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:07.759
check that out. We love the
Frighteners here Michael J. Fox though,

185
00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:11.039
I love this is this is one
of those films where we get to see

186
00:15:11.080 --> 00:15:15.320
him, We get to see his
innocence, but we also get to see

187
00:15:15.399 --> 00:15:18.159
him be a little deceptive and a
little little bit of a little bit of

188
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:24.559
a turd here and there. Well, and I think it's important that he

189
00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:30.399
played that character because you kind of
I didn't identify with any of the other

190
00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:37.759
relatives like that, just a right
money grubbing, just horrible, awful people.

191
00:15:39.360 --> 00:15:43.399
But you start to see like if
Michael J. Fox can be sucked

192
00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:48.840
in to this and how easily it
happens. And it starts by him trying

193
00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:54.519
to do the right thing, and
you know that he's your everyman. That

194
00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:58.159
could happen to any of us.
You're right, You're absolutely right. What

195
00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:06.440
did you think of Nancy Travis as
she's the girlfriend Robin who is a sports

196
00:16:06.440 --> 00:16:08.879
producer for ABC. Now, let
me preface this by saying, I do

197
00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:12.519
like her, but okay, I
thought it was funny, like she was

198
00:16:12.679 --> 00:16:18.480
literally playing every character I've ever seen
her play in life. Ever, I'm

199
00:16:18.519 --> 00:16:22.039
glad you said that. So here's
the deal. I don't want to I

200
00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:25.919
don't want to be a bad guy
here, but I kind of feel like

201
00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:33.399
Nancy Travis as a performer is mediocre, and I kind of watching it.

202
00:16:33.399 --> 00:16:36.240
This time, I started to wonder, I kind of went down a Nancy

203
00:16:36.240 --> 00:16:38.559
Travis rabbit hole because I was thinking
about some of the films that she's in

204
00:16:38.600 --> 00:16:42.279
that I really enjoy, and do
I enjoy them because of her? The

205
00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:48.919
answer came back no. Every time. I kind of wondered, like,

206
00:16:48.279 --> 00:16:52.399
if she's one of the if she's
like the actor that that maybe takes roles

207
00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:56.799
from another actor, Like what could
what could have what could another actor have

208
00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:03.279
done with the Nancy Travis philmography,
Like take take someone like Jennifer Beals or

209
00:17:03.320 --> 00:17:12.240
Connie Britton and think about that for
sure. Yea Marissa to May because what

210
00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:19.119
I was thinking in this role is
she never like embraces the crazy. You

211
00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:26.920
never see her like Unlicia, any
kind of anger or passion or intensity about

212
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:34.400
anything. So like, what could
Marisa to May have done with that screaming

213
00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:37.480
at Michael J. Fox like what
are you doing? Yeah? I don't

214
00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:40.960
Yeah, And Marissa to me,
I mean she's gonna win, She's gonna

215
00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:45.839
win a Cammy Award. Uh,
working with Jonathan Lynne. Obviously, I

216
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:48.279
don't know if I'm buying. I
feel like one thing, Okay, so

217
00:17:48.440 --> 00:17:51.960
let me let me say. Let
me give you a positive for Nancy Travis.

218
00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:55.839
I feel like the the girlfriend character
had to be more of an alpha

219
00:17:56.200 --> 00:18:00.440
in the relationship, like more of
the adult you know, who had their

220
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:06.079
life together. So I buy Nancy
Travis doing that, where I might not

221
00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:10.279
buy Marisa Tomey doing that at this
at this point in her career. However,

222
00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:14.000
I definitely buy Connie Britton or Jennifer
Bills doing it. And yes,

223
00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:17.200
I just feel like, you know, I'm thinking like I love I don't

224
00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:22.880
know if you've ever seen this movie
called The vanishing. That movie scares me

225
00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:25.519
so bad. I can't even talk
about it. We need it, we

226
00:18:25.559 --> 00:18:29.519
need to cut it off right now. Well, all right, so everybody

227
00:18:29.519 --> 00:18:32.759
go watch this movie because it's terrifying, it's awesome. Yeah, I gotta,

228
00:18:32.920 --> 00:18:34.039
I gotta, I gotta. I
got the physical media because that's what

229
00:18:34.079 --> 00:18:38.920
we gotta gotta have. No,
well, I can't have it in my

230
00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:42.160
house. All right, that's how
this movie is. I'll tell you what.

231
00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:48.240
Take take her out of that movie
and plug Connie Britton in and it's

232
00:18:48.319 --> 00:18:52.039
it's a better film. Right,
Yes, uh so I married an ax

233
00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:57.119
murderer. Put Jennifer Bills in that. That is way better. I think

234
00:18:56.920 --> 00:19:04.640
they. I think Nancy Travis like
like rose to her level. Yeah where

235
00:19:04.839 --> 00:19:10.880
this is what she does. She
doesn't overshadow her leads. It's the man's

236
00:19:10.920 --> 00:19:15.119
movie and she's there to serve a
purpose, and she does that very confidently.

237
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:22.400
And she's pretty and you know,
she's not too challenging and yeah,

238
00:19:22.599 --> 00:19:26.400
yeah, she just she's a grinder. She grinds it out like she's whatever

239
00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:30.680
movie she's in, she's there,
she's gonna do the job. Okay,

240
00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:34.240
all right, let's let's let's go
more positive I feel bad now, my

241
00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:40.640
bash Nancy. But okay, so
let's let's hit more of a lightning round

242
00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:44.359
here, because we've got a big
family to talk about. So Phil Hartman

243
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:51.440
and Chevron Fallon as Frank and Tina
mctigue Chavonne Fallon. Oh my gosh,

244
00:19:51.599 --> 00:19:56.720
she she always for me, just
pops in with these little parts. But

245
00:19:57.359 --> 00:20:02.640
holy heck, is she hilarious.
She's drunk the entire movie. Yes,

246
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:07.000
and it's so awesome. I believe
her and I'm laughing the entire time.

247
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:11.000
Yep. There's there's moments where she's
not even saying anything, She's just in

248
00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:15.480
the scene, and you're just you're
taken to her. Your your your focus

249
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:21.200
goes away from Michael J. Fox
or whoever. You know. She goes

250
00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:26.319
to the Rick Morana school of when
you don't have any lines, but you

251
00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:30.759
have to be on camera, like
find something funny and interesting to do.

252
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:37.319
And oh my gosh, the moment
when they are the detective is like doing

253
00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:42.279
the background check on on Molly.
Yes, and I don't I don't remember

254
00:20:42.279 --> 00:20:47.640
what she says. But but Phil
Hartman's like, Tina, go lie down,

255
00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:52.039
and then like two minutes later,
you just happen to notice she's laying

256
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:56.400
on the ground in the background doing
nothing. She's just laying there. I

257
00:20:56.440 --> 00:21:06.000
was like, holy shit, like
her moment happy birthday, Uncle Joe and

258
00:21:06.119 --> 00:21:11.640
his like seething frustration with her.
Oh, it's fantastic. Phil Hartman,

259
00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:17.079
He's he is the show. He's
the he's the he's the show stealer.

260
00:21:17.559 --> 00:21:22.680
And this I can't even describe why. He's funny. He just exists and

261
00:21:22.839 --> 00:21:25.960
is funny, like well, and
he gets the best lines. I don't

262
00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:29.480
know. I couldn't find out any
any research. I didn't find anything,

263
00:21:29.680 --> 00:21:32.839
uh, any kind of information about
whether or not he did a lot of

264
00:21:32.839 --> 00:21:36.559
ad libbing. It would not surprise
me if he was ad libbing the ship

265
00:21:36.599 --> 00:21:40.279
out of this movie. He's so
good. He is so so good,

266
00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:48.039
as uh as nasty as Franken Tina
are. Let's let's move over to Carl

267
00:21:48.240 --> 00:21:56.240
and Nora mctigue played by Ed Bigley
Junior and Mary Ellen Trainor. They were

268
00:21:56.319 --> 00:21:59.839
kind of weird for me. Well, yeah, I mean the name and

269
00:22:00.000 --> 00:22:07.480
they're naming all their children Joe.
They manipulated the pregnancy so they would only

270
00:22:07.480 --> 00:22:12.240
have boys. Yeah, it's just
yeah, they're just they're they're they're sick

271
00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:19.559
of fans. Uh, you know, and Mary Ellen Traynor I forget like

272
00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:26.599
because obviously she's usually a straight man. Yeah, when I think eighties,

273
00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:30.519
eighties Mom d Wallace is forever in
my heart. But but Mary Mary Ellen

274
00:22:30.519 --> 00:22:33.240
Trainer is knocking on the door because
you know, I remember she's this is

275
00:22:33.240 --> 00:22:37.240
the mom from Monster Squad. It's
the mom from the Goonies. You know,

276
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:41.960
she's in the lead the Weapon films. She was the mother of the

277
00:22:41.079 --> 00:22:48.079
Giddy. Yeah, that's awesome.
I love to hear that she's she's always

278
00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:52.960
so wholesome. Yes, and even
in this movie where she's supposed to be

279
00:22:52.079 --> 00:22:56.279
kind of terrible, it's not that
she's terrible. It's just that she's pathetic

280
00:22:56.319 --> 00:23:02.960
because she's going along with well,
she's filling her husband's yes, yeah,

281
00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:08.559
you know plots and yeah, one
of my favorite couples, Muriel and Glenn

282
00:23:08.759 --> 00:23:15.440
mctigue played by played by eighties hottie
Joyce Heiser. Remember just one of the

283
00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:18.920
guys. I never saw that.
You've never seen just one of the guys.

284
00:23:19.319 --> 00:23:22.920
No, you have homework. You
have a lot of homework, isn't

285
00:23:22.960 --> 00:23:29.400
it just like Naked Booby movie.
No, there's one set of yes,

286
00:23:29.599 --> 00:23:33.680
well, okay, I'm gonna go
off on a tangent here. But Joyce

287
00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:37.680
Heiser, she is a very talented
writer and she's working for the school newspaper

288
00:23:38.599 --> 00:23:45.160
and she doesn't win this what is
it. It's like a scholarship or no,

289
00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:49.200
it's an internship. It's an internship
with with a major newspaper. She

290
00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:52.720
doesn't get picked, and she's like, you know what, if I was

291
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:55.920
a guy, I wouldn't have been
passed over, you know, just because

292
00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:59.720
I'm pretty, you know, you
know. So it's it's got like that

293
00:23:59.799 --> 00:24:02.920
kind of a vibe to it.
So she gets the plan, and she's

294
00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:07.240
beautiful in the movie. So she
gets the plan to cut her hair and

295
00:24:07.319 --> 00:24:11.480
go under cover, and she goes
to another school as a boy. She's

296
00:24:11.519 --> 00:24:14.599
like in disguise as a boy,
and she goes to that school for a

297
00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:18.079
week to write a story about being
just one of the guys, like my

298
00:24:18.119 --> 00:24:23.079
life is a boy and it's just
it's eighties awesomeness. It's a sold me.

299
00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:26.480
Yeah, that is not what I
thought this movie was. That.

300
00:24:26.920 --> 00:24:32.480
To be fair, the you know, video box cover does not do a

301
00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:37.160
justice. No, well, okay, so that's the story I'm telling you.

302
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:40.039
That because I knew that would sell
you right, right, you know

303
00:24:40.119 --> 00:24:42.880
how to pitch it? Yeah,
And if I was gonna pitch to anyone

304
00:24:42.920 --> 00:24:47.000
else, I would say, this
is a movie starring can you get to

305
00:24:47.079 --> 00:24:49.559
my twenty five year old son?
Okay? If I'm pitching it to Liam,

306
00:24:49.640 --> 00:24:57.960
I'm gonna say Liam, William Zopka
and Joyce Heiser topless. Now the

307
00:24:59.000 --> 00:25:03.440
truth comes out, is William Zabkas
in it? And that's fine. Yeah,

308
00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:06.759
Look, I listen, any chance
I get to mention my buddy,

309
00:25:06.799 --> 00:25:10.279
williams Zapka, I'm going to You're
bestie. You have to all right,

310
00:25:10.359 --> 00:25:15.160
Let's we gotta move on. Last
the last, the last couple say yeah

311
00:25:15.480 --> 00:25:22.759
Colleen, Colleen Camp and Bob Ballaban
as Patty and ed Alt. I love

312
00:25:22.839 --> 00:25:30.319
Colin Camp. I love her so
much. Evett from Clue. She she's

313
00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:34.559
awesome in this She is so good. They the way this family tears each

314
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:41.680
other down, like with the quick
jabs during dinners and breakfasts and knowing the

315
00:25:41.720 --> 00:25:47.279
minutia of everybody's little secrets, and
you throw that in like, oh,

316
00:25:47.359 --> 00:25:51.480
did you not want people to know? Yeah? Right, I thought everyone

317
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:56.839
knew. Yeah, they're they're fantastic
you know, I can't say enough about

318
00:25:56.880 --> 00:25:59.240
all of them. I know we
got to move on, though. I'm

319
00:25:59.240 --> 00:26:03.000
gonna give you this one we got. We've got a before they were famous,

320
00:26:03.480 --> 00:26:08.000
and a little cameo also now the
one I knew about. There's a

321
00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:11.160
couple that you haven't mentioned. Well, you know, for the sake of

322
00:26:11.200 --> 00:26:15.400
time. I'm just I'm trying to
you know, there's some good there's there's

323
00:26:15.400 --> 00:26:17.759
some other ones. Kevin McCarthy,
I could say, I could talk about

324
00:26:17.839 --> 00:26:19.079
him, but you know there's some
other ones. But yes, yeah,

325
00:26:19.119 --> 00:26:25.240
but who is it? Uh?
Ed Bagley Junior and Mary Ellen Traynor.

326
00:26:26.079 --> 00:26:29.240
They got the uh, they got
the girls, They got the boys.

327
00:26:29.319 --> 00:26:33.599
They got the boys who and their
son? The little one is the kid

328
00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:37.720
from the Santa Claus Yes, okay, I didn't catch that one. But

329
00:26:37.599 --> 00:26:44.440
the little girl who plays Joline remember
the Yes, it's Colleen camp Camps.

330
00:26:44.680 --> 00:26:48.119
Yeah, Joline Jolette? Yeah?
Did you did you catch Joline? I

331
00:26:48.119 --> 00:26:51.759
didn't know this until I was watching
the credits. Jolene is played by Kirsten

332
00:26:51.799 --> 00:26:53.680
Dunst. Yeah, if you know
it, because you only see her for

333
00:26:53.720 --> 00:26:57.160
like a second. Yeah, but
if you know that it's her when she

334
00:26:57.200 --> 00:27:00.680
gets out of the car like you
tell you can see her. Yeah.

335
00:27:02.200 --> 00:27:07.839
Uh. And then obviously Douglas,
the butler who is just there for for

336
00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:12.839
pratt falls and comedic timing. None
other than our our director, Jonathan Lynn

337
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:18.799
is playing Douglas. He really puts
himself through it. He does. There's

338
00:27:18.839 --> 00:27:22.400
just moments like I laugh like an
idiot, Like when when Joe Uncle Joe

339
00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:25.559
swimming and he's like Douglas and he
leans down to the pool and he just

340
00:27:25.599 --> 00:27:29.759
splashes him for no reason. He's
like, thank you, sir, thank

341
00:27:29.799 --> 00:27:32.359
you, sir. May I go
chack? Yeah, you can dance the

342
00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:37.079
Wholly Gully for all I care.
He's awesome. Amber. Let's let's take

343
00:27:37.119 --> 00:27:38.720
a quick break. When we get
back, we'll talk a little bit about

344
00:27:38.720 --> 00:27:45.559
the production in the background this movie. Okay, all right, welcome back.

345
00:27:47.319 --> 00:27:52.960
Amber Lewis and I talking about Jonathan
Lynn's Greedy. So this is written

346
00:27:53.000 --> 00:27:57.079
by Lowell Gance and Babbelo Mandel.
Amber. We've talked about these two guys

347
00:27:57.119 --> 00:28:03.240
before because we did night Shift Ron
Howard's Night Shift not too long ago.

348
00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:06.759
When you look at the writing talent, these guys worked with Penny Marshall back

349
00:28:06.839 --> 00:28:08.359
like I think they got their start
on Laverne and Shirley back in the day.

350
00:28:08.359 --> 00:28:12.319
If I remember, let me just
give you a rundown of the work

351
00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:17.119
that they did together, because separately
they're doing some incredible work, but just

352
00:28:17.240 --> 00:28:22.119
the ones they worked on together.
Night Shift Gung Ho, which we covered

353
00:28:22.119 --> 00:28:27.440
on our nineteen eighty six series Parenthood. Then they do a Billy Crystal four

354
00:28:27.519 --> 00:28:33.319
pack of City Slickers, City Slickers
to the Legend of Curly's Gold, Forget

355
00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:38.279
Paris and Father's Day. They do
the animated film Robots with melt Brooks.

356
00:28:38.400 --> 00:28:45.920
Remember that one. Yes, yeah, they did Fever Pitch and Tooth Fairy,

357
00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:49.200
which you know, maybe we skipped
that one. That's where the rock

358
00:28:49.599 --> 00:28:52.680
is like becomes the tooth Fairy.
Oh yeah, no, thank you.

359
00:28:53.559 --> 00:28:59.440
Yeah yeah. But again, when
you think of all the laughs and all

360
00:28:59.440 --> 00:29:03.440
the the amazing moments in this movie, and then you look at the body

361
00:29:03.480 --> 00:29:07.640
of work that these guys have done
together and and separately. I know,

362
00:29:07.720 --> 00:29:11.920
Lil Gance, I think he did
spies like us, uh, illegal their

363
00:29:11.920 --> 00:29:17.079
own, There's there's there's a couple
others, but just incredible talent here.

364
00:29:17.119 --> 00:29:23.440
I think this movie opens at number
two at the box office, behind another

365
00:29:25.480 --> 00:29:30.200
blockbuster film and if I give you
a hint, you will take a guess

366
00:29:30.200 --> 00:29:33.720
at it. At what the number
one? Terrible at this game, but

367
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:38.039
I'll give it a shot. It
was a film about a detective who would

368
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:45.000
like to ask you some questions.
Oh Ace Ventura pet detective. Yeah that

369
00:29:45.640 --> 00:29:48.400
had that not had that not come
out, this this movie, Greedy would

370
00:29:48.440 --> 00:29:52.279
have been number one at the box
office. Not a lot of background on

371
00:29:52.319 --> 00:29:55.039
this film. There's not a lot
of research to do on this one.

372
00:29:55.079 --> 00:29:56.079
Amber, I don't know. I
don't know what you might have found,

373
00:29:56.119 --> 00:30:02.359
but uh, I did dig deep
in to a certain scene and m's skip

374
00:30:02.359 --> 00:30:07.960
ahead and look, obviously this movie
is all about a long con, right,

375
00:30:08.880 --> 00:30:11.839
So I guess this is the point
where we should say, hey,

376
00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:15.160
listen, if you haven't seen Greedy
and you don't want it spoiled, hip,

377
00:30:15.200 --> 00:30:19.079
pause on the podcast, go watch
the film and then come back,

378
00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:22.119
because we're gonna we're gonna talk about
what the long con is, you know

379
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:25.799
at some point, I'm sure,
but well, right now, that's out

380
00:30:25.799 --> 00:30:29.680
of the way. So when this
film ends with Danny and Robin discovering Uncle

381
00:30:29.720 --> 00:30:33.039
Joe's big charade, they see Molly
and Douglas standing outside the window right,

382
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:36.440
he says, says, go look
out the window. They're standing under a

383
00:30:36.440 --> 00:30:41.920
movie theater Marquee and the movie theater
is playing a film called Charade from nineteen

384
00:30:41.960 --> 00:30:45.480
sixty three. Have you seen this? Yes? Oh, I love this

385
00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:49.200
movie. I had not seen it. I did a little digging on this

386
00:30:49.200 --> 00:30:53.839
one. You know. Charade stars
Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant. And listen

387
00:30:53.839 --> 00:31:00.720
to this synopsis. Romance and suspense
en sue in Paris as a woman is

388
00:31:00.759 --> 00:31:06.319
pursued by several men who want a
fortune her murdered husband had stolen. Whom

389
00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:11.000
can she trust? So I love
the I love the fact that you know

390
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:12.440
the whole movie. Joe's like,
I needed to know who could I trust?

391
00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:15.599
Who loves me? So I thought
that was a cool little nod.

392
00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:19.720
But I wasn't done. Like I
looked at this. This is This is

393
00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:25.960
directed by Stanley Donnan, And I
gotta tell you we may have to cover

394
00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:30.680
this one with with Robert the authority
on the Golden Age of cinema Burnett.

395
00:31:30.319 --> 00:31:37.160
Yes, are you familiar with Donnan's
filmography? Oh? Yeah, I started

396
00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:42.599
looking at it and I thought,
somewhere Robert Burnett's glasses are steaming up he

397
00:31:42.680 --> 00:31:45.839
has got he's got to talk about
this film, so so, uh,

398
00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:48.799
you might have to put in a
call and see if we can get him

399
00:31:48.799 --> 00:31:52.440
on the show again, because uh, I kind of want to talk about

400
00:31:52.519 --> 00:31:56.960
Charade at some point. Well,
and it's just so such a charming movie.

401
00:31:56.519 --> 00:32:00.599
Hit it. Oh, I'm I'm
gonna take your word for it because

402
00:32:00.599 --> 00:32:05.960
I put on my watch list.
But I know we always talk about the

403
00:32:05.960 --> 00:32:08.759
pivotal moment. We're not gonna do
that. I want to know. I've

404
00:32:08.759 --> 00:32:14.000
got four scenes here, and I
want to know what scene or line made

405
00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:17.920
you laugh the most. So here's
your candidates. I'll give you breakfast to

406
00:32:19.079 --> 00:32:22.359
Uncle Joe's kind of started the movie, kind of shows us a little bit

407
00:32:22.400 --> 00:32:27.079
about how nasty these people are,
you know, tearing into each other,

408
00:32:27.920 --> 00:32:30.960
you know, airing out their dirty
laundry. Again, Phil Hartman just doing

409
00:32:31.599 --> 00:32:38.039
amazing work in that scene. How
about Michael J. Fox drunk, naked

410
00:32:38.079 --> 00:32:43.079
and tattooed. I know you had
to be giggling when that scene came up

411
00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:50.079
a little bit. It's more like
it was such an elaborate tattoo that was

412
00:32:50.119 --> 00:32:52.039
the thing that threw me. It
could have just been like a bowling ball

413
00:32:52.079 --> 00:32:58.920
of flames or something, you know, I mean with several tattoos myself.

414
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:00.880
I've never even wons had the inclination
like, you know what, I think

415
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:07.759
I'll go get a tattoo in my
ass. It's just bowling the bowling theme.

416
00:33:07.839 --> 00:33:10.000
Tattoo on your ass is okay?
No, I thought he played he.

417
00:33:10.359 --> 00:33:14.480
I think he did a good job
for as good as a Chavon did

418
00:33:14.720 --> 00:33:17.079
playing drunk the entire movie. I
love this brief moment of Michael J.

419
00:33:17.200 --> 00:33:22.720
Fox drunk and defiant. You know, can you go out my underwear?

420
00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:25.880
I'll go out with no underwear.
I love that was a good moment for

421
00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:30.119
Dancy Travis when she's like, fine, go you know, like I can

422
00:33:30.200 --> 00:33:34.160
imagine if you're in that situation as
a woman, you just just let the

423
00:33:34.160 --> 00:33:37.759
guy be a horse's ass, right, do it? Okay? How about

424
00:33:37.839 --> 00:33:43.359
uh? How about when he wrestles
Uncle Joe in the pool? Oh?

425
00:33:43.440 --> 00:33:46.200
I hated that scene. You hated
that scene? Okay, you're not laughing?

426
00:33:46.640 --> 00:33:51.000
Why did you hate it? I
was not laughing? Well, first

427
00:33:51.000 --> 00:33:54.599
of all, like I don't know. First of all, was mean,

428
00:33:54.720 --> 00:33:58.559
and I didn't like it because it
was mean, and I just couldn't get

429
00:33:58.559 --> 00:34:02.680
over that but then like he's under
the water, and they did like a

430
00:34:02.799 --> 00:34:07.320
voiceover of him screaming, so it
doesn't sound like he's screaming underwater. It

431
00:34:07.400 --> 00:34:13.239
sounds like he's in a booth screaming
and put that sound over top of the

432
00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:15.280
scene. I'm like, what is
even going on that moment though, where

433
00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:21.119
he's screaming underwater, Uncle Joe's screaming
above water. He's just dominating him.

434
00:34:22.639 --> 00:34:25.639
I uh. I did read.
Michael J. Fox was talking about that

435
00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:30.480
that pool scene and he said,
you know, a couple days in advance,

436
00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:32.159
Kirk Douglas would just grin at him
and say, wait till I get

437
00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:35.679
you in that pool. And the
whole time he's like, well, I'm

438
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:37.639
gonna have to be careful. This
is Kirk Douglas. He's like seventy something

439
00:34:37.679 --> 00:34:42.000
years old. And then he said, after a half a day of shooting,

440
00:34:42.599 --> 00:34:45.000
Kirk Douglas is like, hey,
let's do another take, And Michael

441
00:34:45.039 --> 00:34:47.199
J. Fox said, I was
destroyed. I was crushed, Like I

442
00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:51.199
just felt like a sponge in this
guy's hands, like he is so strong.

443
00:34:51.480 --> 00:34:55.519
So yeah, that was so one
hundred believable. Yeah. Uh.

444
00:34:55.559 --> 00:34:58.920
And then we got that towards the
end we got the big reveal during the

445
00:34:58.960 --> 00:35:02.480
meeting with Uncle Joe's lawyer, when
Phil Hartman is at his absolute best in

446
00:35:02.519 --> 00:35:07.360
this movie. In my opinion,
yes, that scene might have the best

447
00:35:07.400 --> 00:35:09.239
line in the movie. Yes,
at that point too, So I go,

448
00:35:09.719 --> 00:35:12.320
I'm throwing a couple out there.
But I want to know, like

449
00:35:12.559 --> 00:35:15.599
it was there a scene or a
certain line that made you laugh the hardest.

450
00:35:16.519 --> 00:35:22.599
I'm not like laughing out loud a
lot in this movie. It was

451
00:35:22.679 --> 00:35:27.519
more just sitting back and enjoying Phil
Hartman was most of what I did.

452
00:35:28.199 --> 00:35:32.559
But I really enjoyed that that scene
at the lawyer's office. Were it all

453
00:35:32.719 --> 00:35:37.480
just unhinges Kevin McCarthy, I can
see this has come as a shock to

454
00:35:37.519 --> 00:35:44.440
you. No, I won't repeat
what Phil Hartman says because you know we

455
00:35:44.519 --> 00:35:49.679
have we have sponsors. But yes, it's such a good line and just

456
00:35:49.800 --> 00:35:54.639
the character he created was just everything
about him was perfect. Yeah, this

457
00:35:54.719 --> 00:35:58.400
is this is the Can we go
ahead and say it, is this the

458
00:35:58.440 --> 00:36:02.519
best Phil Hartman performance in a n
A film? Yes, I'm I'm there.

459
00:36:02.599 --> 00:36:07.440
If there's like he did stuff on
Saturday Night Live that was so funny,

460
00:36:07.519 --> 00:36:12.280
like you couldn't breathe, But this
in a movie. This was absolutely

461
00:36:13.239 --> 00:36:15.519
his best. Yeah, I think, I think, I think so.

462
00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:19.760
Yeah, listeners, if there is
a better Phil Hartman performance in a movie,

463
00:36:20.559 --> 00:36:22.760
please let us know, because I
I can't think of what it would

464
00:36:22.800 --> 00:36:27.679
be. Honestly. Let me talk
a little bit about Jonathan Lynn and get

465
00:36:27.719 --> 00:36:32.840
into his filmography. Yes, all
right, I got two things you might

466
00:36:32.880 --> 00:36:37.239
not know about mister Lynn, and
then I'll give you a quote. Surprisingly,

467
00:36:37.840 --> 00:36:44.480
he earned a law degree from Cambridge
before entering the movie business. What

468
00:36:45.599 --> 00:36:50.920
yes, yes, ma'am, Oh
my god, he's like a money python.

469
00:36:51.440 --> 00:36:53.119
Yeah, I think this one's will
put a smile on your face.

470
00:36:53.960 --> 00:37:00.440
He also gave a eulogy at legendary
actor Leonard Russiter's funeral. Is that name

471
00:37:00.519 --> 00:37:08.119
ring a Belle? No? It
should because he played doctor Andre Smithlof in

472
00:37:08.159 --> 00:37:14.960
your all time favorite Stanley Kubrick film, Really Yeah, two thousand and one

473
00:37:15.000 --> 00:37:19.440
of Space Odyssey, Noddy, Yeah, they were friends. He gave the

474
00:37:19.440 --> 00:37:23.519
eulogy is at his funeral. Discussing
the film Greedy, Jonathan Lynn says,

475
00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:30.960
and I quote Greedy asks the question, how far will you humiliate yourself to

476
00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:35.599
get your hands on twenty five million
dollars? Greedy? Is a movie for

477
00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:42.119
anyone who wants more money or isn't
fond of their relatives. Amber, I'm

478
00:37:42.239 --> 00:37:45.880
very fond of my relatives, but
I always want twenty five million dollars,

479
00:37:45.920 --> 00:37:51.360
So I don't know. I don't
know how far Uncle Joe's hooks would get

480
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:53.239
into me. But the I don't
know, this film is just fantastic.

481
00:37:53.280 --> 00:37:57.480
I'm, I'm. This is one
of Jonathan Lynn's best It's not his it's

482
00:37:57.519 --> 00:38:00.159
not his best because we're gonna talk
about his filmography right after this break,

483
00:38:02.679 --> 00:38:07.840
Amber, we are back. Let's
discuss the philmography of Jonathan Lynn. His

484
00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:16.559
feature film debut in nineteen eighty five
is Clue. I mean on the side

485
00:38:16.599 --> 00:38:24.800
of my face, breathing, breathing, hear the breasts, you know,

486
00:38:25.320 --> 00:38:29.760
so clearly not his greedy, not
his first time working with Colleen Camp.

487
00:38:30.519 --> 00:38:35.519
Clearly not his first time handling a
large ensemble comedy. But damn, what

488
00:38:35.559 --> 00:38:38.960
a what a way to make your
mark right out the gate, Lou.

489
00:38:39.679 --> 00:38:44.239
We've mentioned Clue in passing like you
know, we're you know, we're never

490
00:38:44.280 --> 00:38:46.440
going to cover it on a film
buy because it's it's not really an underrated

491
00:38:46.480 --> 00:38:51.679
film, obviously, but one of
the all time greatest mystery films, right

492
00:38:51.719 --> 00:38:53.800
well, and yeah, and I
think it's one of those it's almost impossible

493
00:38:54.840 --> 00:39:00.440
to do an episode on because it
would just evolve into all of us laughing

494
00:39:00.480 --> 00:39:02.039
and quoting it, and you might
as well just act out the movie.

495
00:39:02.239 --> 00:39:08.840
And yeah, altely because it's one
of those just perfectly quotable, hilarious.

496
00:39:09.199 --> 00:39:14.000
It's one you know, pour the
drinks, we're gonna, we're gonna,

497
00:39:14.000 --> 00:39:19.199
we're gonna quote the whole thing the
whole time. Interestingly enough, he wrote

498
00:39:19.239 --> 00:39:23.280
that he co wrote it with John
Landis. Also, so if you ever

499
00:39:23.320 --> 00:39:29.280
wonder why Clue is as good as
it is, among the many reasons the

500
00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:36.239
cast, primarily John Landis and Jonathan
Lynn write co writing that one Love Clue.

501
00:39:37.079 --> 00:39:40.280
Nineteen ninety, he's writing and directing
again a film called Nuns on the

502
00:39:40.360 --> 00:39:45.239
Run. Have you seen that one? Yeah, but I don't really remember

503
00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:47.920
it. I just remember it's Eric
Idol and Robbie Coltrane. Yeah, as

504
00:39:47.920 --> 00:39:52.000
I say, it's it's funny.
You mentioned you mentioned uh, Monty Python

505
00:39:52.760 --> 00:39:55.559
a little bit ago, and then
here we go. He's working with Eric

506
00:39:55.599 --> 00:40:00.360
Idol. Yeah, two criminals,
uh one out, but their boss kills

507
00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:05.280
everyone that tries to leave them,
leave them so when they are ordered to

508
00:40:05.400 --> 00:40:07.719
rob the triad, they keep the
money, hide from the boss, the

509
00:40:07.760 --> 00:40:14.480
Triad, and the police at a
convent dressed as nuns. He again writing

510
00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:17.239
and directing. I remember this.
I remember liking this one and laughing a

511
00:40:17.239 --> 00:40:22.280
lot when I was a kid.
But I don't think it really ever found

512
00:40:22.320 --> 00:40:25.559
its its audience, you know,
like it's one of those It was always

513
00:40:25.599 --> 00:40:31.920
on Showtime or the movie channel.
Yeah, money members by themselves like you

514
00:40:32.000 --> 00:40:36.159
need, like you need more,
you need, you need, you need

515
00:40:36.199 --> 00:40:38.400
a few of them together, right, Well, I'll do respect to Robbie

516
00:40:38.400 --> 00:40:44.039
Coltrane. You need a couple of
them now. Same year he does that,

517
00:40:44.119 --> 00:40:49.360
he does he directs one of the
episodes for the Farris Beeler television series,

518
00:40:50.079 --> 00:40:52.880
talk about a television series that never
should have happened. Oh my gosh,

519
00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:58.079
why would you even bother? I
don't know, honestly, I don't,

520
00:40:58.119 --> 00:41:02.000
but uh, I mean they try
fun fact. I don't know if

521
00:41:02.000 --> 00:41:05.320
you you know, I don't know
if you did you watch it when it

522
00:41:05.360 --> 00:41:12.320
was on a little fun fact for
you so we know. Jennifer Gray plays

523
00:41:12.400 --> 00:41:16.880
Genie in the film The nineteen eighty
six classic Ferris Bueler's Day Off. Yes,

524
00:41:17.360 --> 00:41:22.880
on the television show, Genie was
played by Jennifer Aniston. That's right.

525
00:41:23.079 --> 00:41:27.079
I was like, somebody played her, I can't remember. And the

526
00:41:27.960 --> 00:41:34.960
irony here is that they would then
be together on Friends when Jennifer Gray showed

527
00:41:35.039 --> 00:41:39.039
up as her long lost friend that
was getting married to her ex, the

528
00:41:39.440 --> 00:41:44.280
you know, the dentist. Oh
what is that she played? Yeah,

529
00:41:44.480 --> 00:41:50.559
that was Jennifer Gray. So kind
of a interesting little tangent on Fairis Pray.

530
00:41:50.639 --> 00:41:55.840
But you had mentioned Mursa Tomey earlier. Nineteen ninety two. He directs

531
00:41:57.679 --> 00:42:02.800
the incredible film My cousin Vinnie.
This this movie, like I almost can't

532
00:42:02.800 --> 00:42:08.000
watch it because it was one of
my dad's absolute favorites. And he was

533
00:42:08.039 --> 00:42:14.280
not the most efflusive person. You
know, you would watch something funny and

534
00:42:14.320 --> 00:42:19.840
he might grunt. Yeah, he
would watch this movie and just laugh until

535
00:42:19.880 --> 00:42:25.199
he cried, like full on belly
laugh. He loved this movie. And

536
00:42:25.280 --> 00:42:29.480
it's, oh my god, it's
so good. It's so funny. She's

537
00:42:29.559 --> 00:42:34.039
so good in it. I would
if I had to make a list of

538
00:42:35.320 --> 00:42:40.039
let's call it the perfect film.
Yeah, a compilation, I think you'd

539
00:42:40.039 --> 00:42:44.000
have to put my cousin Vidi on
that list. Yeah, don't. I

540
00:42:44.079 --> 00:42:47.760
can't think of a single frame that
should be altered or changed or cut.

541
00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:52.079
I can't think of a single actor
or actress in the film that should be

542
00:42:53.280 --> 00:43:02.440
removed or included. It's just it's
it's fantastic. I love are Probably it'd

543
00:43:02.480 --> 00:43:07.159
probably, I'd probably listit among my
top films. If you're talking courtroom movies,

544
00:43:08.039 --> 00:43:12.000
it's got. If it's not number
one, it's it's in the conversation.

545
00:43:12.639 --> 00:43:15.639
Tell you something I I wish could
be in the conversation. The same

546
00:43:15.719 --> 00:43:19.559
year he does My cousin Vinnie,
he does a film, he does an

547
00:43:19.679 --> 00:43:25.119
Eddie Murphy movie called The Distinguished Gentleman
Amber. I'm looking at you and you're

548
00:43:25.320 --> 00:43:31.360
you're just like, huh, like
go to Congress or something. Yeah.

549
00:43:31.360 --> 00:43:35.400
So he was a con man who
kind of canned his way into becoming a

550
00:43:35.440 --> 00:43:43.760
politician, which I mean, yeah, But I mean, if ever I've

551
00:43:43.800 --> 00:43:45.119
said this, I've said this,
I've said this plenty of times. If

552
00:43:45.159 --> 00:43:50.599
ever there was an Eddie Murphy movie
I wanted to be a hit, it's

553
00:43:50.679 --> 00:43:57.119
this one. Because he plays a
character named Jeff Johnson. Yes, and

554
00:43:57.159 --> 00:44:00.159
he says his name several times throughout
the movie, like there's so many Jeff

555
00:44:00.199 --> 00:44:06.079
Johnson quotes and the distinguished gentleman.
Ah, it's just it's just not that

556
00:44:06.159 --> 00:44:09.559
good though. It's it's not Eddie
Murphy not not helping me out there.

557
00:44:09.679 --> 00:44:15.599
So we always get a die hard
shout out in our house because we have

558
00:44:15.719 --> 00:44:20.559
Dayton Johnson over at docking Bay and
we have you over here in a film

559
00:44:20.599 --> 00:44:22.840
by and Liam and I, one
of us inevitably will be like, no

560
00:44:22.920 --> 00:44:29.320
relation. No really, yeah,
the the diehard connection between me and Dayton

561
00:44:29.400 --> 00:44:32.639
is always fun. The show that
you can't be serious guys, Dan,

562
00:44:32.760 --> 00:44:37.159
Jason, we were we were just
on their show doing a an episode on

563
00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:45.280
The Phantom Menace. Oh my god, I loved those That and the Star

564
00:44:45.320 --> 00:44:47.400
Trek the Motion Picture. Yeah,
oh my gosh, those are two of

565
00:44:47.400 --> 00:44:51.920
the best episodes. Those are always
a fun time with Jason and d.

566
00:44:52.039 --> 00:44:54.119
But D will always take the opportunity
of if Dyton and I are in the

567
00:44:54.119 --> 00:45:01.679
same episode, he will always no
relation. Moving on, we've we've been

568
00:45:01.679 --> 00:45:07.039
talking about Greedy this past hour nineteen
ninety four. I hate to say this,

569
00:45:07.559 --> 00:45:09.480
I don't want to say it,
but I kind of feel like this

570
00:45:09.519 --> 00:45:15.440
is where we start to hit the
downward slope. Nineteen ninety six, he

571
00:45:15.480 --> 00:45:22.679
does the Steve Martin film Sergeant Bilco, proof that even an absolute certified genius

572
00:45:22.719 --> 00:45:30.599
can make a mistake. Steve,
Steve Martin, Steve, how could you?

573
00:45:30.599 --> 00:45:32.679
You know, No offense to Steve, because he's fantastic and everything,

574
00:45:32.719 --> 00:45:36.800
but oh my god, I worship
him. But this movie is a conker.

575
00:45:37.480 --> 00:45:40.320
Think about this, a movie that
stars Steve Martin, Dan Ackroyd and

576
00:45:40.320 --> 00:45:45.159
Phil Hartman. That should you should
be printing money with that, and somehow,

577
00:45:46.039 --> 00:45:51.079
somehow they did not. Just yeah
very much, Yeah, thank you,

578
00:45:51.599 --> 00:45:55.280
No thank you, Sergeant Boco speaking, Let's let's keep on the tip

579
00:45:55.320 --> 00:46:00.119
of no thank you. Nineteen ninety
seven. This is a point point where

580
00:46:00.599 --> 00:46:07.559
Hollywood's trying to make Michael Richards a
film star. You know, he's all

581
00:46:07.639 --> 00:46:10.079
you know, it's Kramer on Seinfeld, He's you can't stop laughing. But

582
00:46:10.440 --> 00:46:15.639
yes, trial and error. He
does this with the Jeff Daniels again.

583
00:46:15.000 --> 00:46:17.719
You put you put a talented cast
together, Michael, you know, Michael

584
00:46:17.800 --> 00:46:23.199
Richards with Jeff Daniels Charlie's Throne.
You should be doing good business here,

585
00:46:23.199 --> 00:46:29.840
but this movie not good. Have
you seen this one. Yeah, no,

586
00:46:30.440 --> 00:46:32.880
I'd never even heard of it.
You know what, just forget,

587
00:46:32.880 --> 00:46:38.360
I forget I mentioned it because everyone
else, most everyone else moved on with

588
00:46:38.400 --> 00:46:43.400
their life. They weren't watching this
nineteen ninety seven. Now in two thousand,

589
00:46:43.519 --> 00:46:46.920
he does make a better film.
He does The Whole nine Yards with

590
00:46:46.960 --> 00:46:52.599
Bruce Willis and Matthew Perry and Amanda
Pete. Yes, I remember watching this

591
00:46:53.760 --> 00:47:00.480
for Matthew Perry. Okay, I
I so you come in from Matthew Perry.

592
00:47:00.519 --> 00:47:04.119
I came in for Bruce Willis.
We're both happy, awesome. But

593
00:47:04.440 --> 00:47:08.199
yeah for this movie that I came
in for Matthew Perry. Yeah, yeah,

594
00:47:08.440 --> 00:47:10.679
but then we you know, we
came in for Bruce and Matthew,

595
00:47:10.679 --> 00:47:15.519
but we stayed for Rosanna Arquet,
Michael Clark, duncan you know many Pete,

596
00:47:15.559 --> 00:47:19.519
Kevin Pollack. This is this is
a fun movie. I mean,

597
00:47:19.559 --> 00:47:22.559
it's good enough to get a sequel. The sequel wasn't great, but it

598
00:47:22.599 --> 00:47:25.119
was watchable, I feel like,
but I I enjoyed the Whole nine Yards.

599
00:47:25.119 --> 00:47:28.079
If it like, that's one like. If it if it shows up

600
00:47:28.079 --> 00:47:31.280
on a streaming platform, I'll add
I'll add it to the queue. If

601
00:47:31.280 --> 00:47:35.559
it's been a while after this.
A couple years later two thousand and three,

602
00:47:36.320 --> 00:47:37.639
swear he kind of fades out.
He does. He did a movie

603
00:47:37.639 --> 00:47:42.519
called The Fighting Temptations. Did you
see this one? Mm hmm, all

604
00:47:42.599 --> 00:47:45.000
right, we're gonna do something here. I'm gonna I'm gonna pitch this to

605
00:47:45.039 --> 00:47:47.159
you and you tell me if you
want to watch it. Yea, a

606
00:47:47.239 --> 00:47:52.599
New York advertising executive travels to a
small southern town to collect an inheritance,

607
00:47:53.280 --> 00:47:59.599
but finds he must create a gospel
choir and lead it to success before he

608
00:47:59.599 --> 00:48:07.679
can let Does that grab you?
Okay a little? I mean, what

609
00:48:07.760 --> 00:48:12.800
if I told you it starred Beyonce. Oh you're a Beyonce fan? Shut

610
00:48:12.880 --> 00:48:15.239
up and take my money? All
right, well check it? Check out

611
00:48:15.480 --> 00:48:25.039
Beyonce. Who else is in it? Cuba Gooding Jr. And well he's

612
00:48:25.079 --> 00:48:28.400
And then you lost me. I
had you that, I lost you.

613
00:48:28.599 --> 00:48:34.039
Okay, Well I might still watch
it just for Beyonce though, Yeah,

614
00:48:34.280 --> 00:48:37.719
this is this is this is before
the fall of Cuba Gooding Jr. You

615
00:48:37.719 --> 00:48:42.159
know, he's he's still Cuba at
this point. Still a little of him

616
00:48:42.159 --> 00:48:45.920
goes a long way with me.
That's true, that's true. I after

617
00:48:46.000 --> 00:48:51.639
Jay McGuire. I just think nothing
he was gonna do was gonna gonna measure

618
00:48:51.719 --> 00:48:55.320
up. So yeah, well,
speaking of measuring up, I'd like to

619
00:48:55.360 --> 00:48:59.559
tell you what's next for this director
Jonathan Lynn, but he has nothing.

620
00:49:00.519 --> 00:49:02.960
He has nothing on the docket.
So as far as what I would like

621
00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:07.960
to see him do, we've been
talking about this whole episode. He does

622
00:49:07.000 --> 00:49:10.840
his best work with ensemble comedy films. I don't care what the plot is.

623
00:49:10.880 --> 00:49:14.800
Do one of those and it's gonna
hit as far as I'm concerned.

624
00:49:15.239 --> 00:49:19.079
Yeah, absolutely, sambur I take
it you would recommend this one. I

625
00:49:19.159 --> 00:49:27.159
would. I was thinking that it's
a nice slice of really great nineties comedy,

626
00:49:27.280 --> 00:49:30.639
like it really it's that niche you
know, Yeah, doesn't feel dated,

627
00:49:30.960 --> 00:49:37.320
right, you know, nothing too
nothing to crass, like you could

628
00:49:37.320 --> 00:49:39.719
watch this with like your teenage kids. You can watch this on a date

629
00:49:39.840 --> 00:49:43.400
night, watch this with your buddies. It kind of kind of hits.

630
00:49:43.559 --> 00:49:47.440
It checks all the boxes as far
as I'm concerned. Definitely, definitely a

631
00:49:47.480 --> 00:49:52.920
wickedly funny film. Happens to have
our favorite Phil Hartman moment. If you

632
00:49:53.000 --> 00:49:58.199
enjoyed his ensemble comedy clue. I
think this one keeps you laughing, So

a fan of Primal Fear apparently,
so I'm excited for this conversation. All

647
00:51:04.920 --> 00:51:08.920
right, Uh, And next time
on a Film By we'll discuss a competitive

648
00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:15.960
sports drama from director John G.
Avelson. It's not Rocky, it's not

649
00:51:15.039 --> 00:51:20.960
the Karate Kid. So keep guessing. Amber, It's always awesome when you're

Docu Based seventy seven any time soon, Yes, tomorrow. We earlier in

652
00:51:29.440 --> 00:51:32.840
the show, we were talking about
our episode about the movie Milk. We

653
00:51:32.920 --> 00:51:42.480
are continuing our Pride Month with a
conversation with myself and Robert Burnett and Disney

654
00:51:42.519 --> 00:51:51.280
John talking about the movie In and
Out versus the movie Jeffrey In and Out

655
00:51:51.320 --> 00:51:58.639
with Kevin Klein. Kevin Klein,
Yeah, John Cusack and Jeffrey starring Steven

656
00:51:58.679 --> 00:52:02.639
Weber, based on the play of
the same name, a little lesser known

657
00:52:02.960 --> 00:52:07.159
film that a lot of listeners might
not know about. I have not seen

658
00:52:07.159 --> 00:52:13.159
that one, and I'm I'm now
wondering, what are the odds that we

659
00:52:13.199 --> 00:52:19.119
would have an episode where we discuss
not one, but two movies that have

660
00:52:19.239 --> 00:52:24.719
my name. Yeah, that's that's
weird. But yeah, definitely check out

me by Bing Crosby and was he glad
