00:02:35   chronologically right so 1973 American [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/155">TS</a>]

00:02:56   most personal work because it is it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/176">TS</a>]

00:02:59   basically him doing a movie about uh hit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/179">TS</a>]

00:03:03   his teenage years in modesto yeah about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/183">TS</a>]

00:03:14   some stages young life although I find [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/194">TS</a>]

00:03:16   that highly obstacle sydenham to know I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/196">TS</a>]

00:03:18   actually think that's a fairly accurate [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/198">TS</a>]

00:03:20   thing and that that I think helps [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/200">TS</a>]

00:03:23   explain why the ron howard and and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/203">TS</a>]

00:03:25   richard dreyfuss characters are vaguely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/205">TS</a>]

00:03:26   distinguishable but it basically it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/206">TS</a>]

00:04:40   turns out but his comment early on is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/280">TS</a>]

00:04:43   that things are already starting to fade [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/283">TS</a>]

00:07:06   it's yeah pretty much yes ten years [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/426">TS</a>]

00:07:08   earlier the first time i saw rick [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/428">TS</a>]

00:07:09   moranis i was horribly confused for my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/429">TS</a>]

00:07:12   money he gets the best lines in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/432">TS</a>]

00:07:13   picture as well we're introduced to him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/433">TS</a>]

00:07:15   actually um he rides in on his scooter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/435">TS</a>]

00:07:18   and crashes in mediating machine yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/438">TS</a>]

00:07:22   and and that that was not in the script [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/442">TS</a>]

00:07:24   that was charles martin smith [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/444">TS</a>]

00:07:25   legitimately crashing into into things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/445">TS</a>]

00:07:28   and they decided i'll leave it in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/448">TS</a>]

00:07:30   Charlie okay all right we'll take it and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/450">TS</a>]

00:07:32   as fortuitous that they did because that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/452">TS</a>]

00:07:34   sets the tone for him peering like if he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/454">TS</a>]

00:07:36   hit if he had successfully landed that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/456">TS</a>]

00:07:37   Vespa it would be harder to sell him as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/457">TS</a>]

00:07:40   the bumbling hapless nerd that he is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/460">TS</a>]

00:07:42   whole way through I mean this is a guy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/462">TS</a>]

00:07:43   who loses everything all night long he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/463">TS</a>]

00:07:47   finds whole new ways to lose right we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/467">TS</a>]

00:07:49   follow the adventures of the this group [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/469">TS</a>]

00:08:21   get out of town who apparently cannot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/501">TS</a>]

00:08:23   wait to get out yeah and is so and is so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/503">TS</a>]

00:08:25   eager to get out of town he he tells his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/505">TS</a>]

00:08:29   girlfriend who is Curt's sister played [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/509">TS</a>]

00:08:33   by Cindy Williams who you'll recognize [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/513">TS</a>]

00:08:35   as Shirley of TVs Laverne and Shirley [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/515">TS</a>]

00:08:37   Telles are basically fair we're gonna [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/517">TS</a>]

00:08:40   see other people but we're still going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/520">TS</a>]

00:08:42   steady okay and an arrangement that she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/522">TS</a>]

00:08:45   is not entirely sold off I think this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/525">TS</a>]

00:08:48   might be a relevant point to point out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/528">TS</a>]

00:08:50   that this is a film that launched to ABC [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/530">TS</a>]

00:08:53   sitcoms right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/533">TS</a>]

00:08:54   because it's hard not to look at the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/534">TS</a>]

00:08:56   success of this movie and say this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/536">TS</a>]

00:08:57   why happy days featuring Ron Howard was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/537">TS</a>]

00:09:00   created and Laverne and Shirley [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/540">TS</a>]

00:09:02   featuring Cindy Williams they're both [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/542">TS</a>]

00:09:03   guess said in the 50s aww it comes on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/543">TS</a>]

00:09:06   ABC I know that the Happy Days pilot was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/546">TS</a>]

00:09:08   actually shot before American Graffiti [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/548">TS</a>]

00:09:10   but with the success of this film [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/550">TS</a>]

00:09:11   basically ABC said 50s nostalgia is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/551">TS</a>]

00:09:16   bee's knees baby and these shows were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/556">TS</a>]

00:09:19   created with these to activate happy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/559">TS</a>]

00:09:21   days was American Graffiti and love [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/561">TS</a>]

00:09:23   American style uh having a beautiful [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/563">TS</a>]

00:09:25   baby together and calling it Fonzarelli [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/565">TS</a>]

00:09:28   so that was um yeah and then the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/568">TS</a>]

00:09:34   audience cheers is the baby crowns and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/574">TS</a>]

00:09:36   is horrifying no the baby was delivered [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/576">TS</a>]

00:09:39   right over a shark though strange how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/579">TS</a>]

00:09:41   that happen shot across the room and ran [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/581">TS</a>]

00:09:44   into a jukebox that had been broken yes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/584">TS</a>]

00:09:46   yeah suddenly started playing a little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/586">TS</a>]

00:09:48   Bailey Bill Haley in the Comets put a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/588">TS</a>]

00:09:50   glove on the little bottle and waved [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/590">TS</a>]

00:09:52   goodbye as it goes down the conveyor [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/592">TS</a>]

00:09:53   belt we lameos schlemazel so now we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/593">TS</a>]

00:09:57   enter a critical point in the recapping [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/597">TS</a>]

00:10:00   of American Graffiti in that the movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/600">TS</a>]

00:10:02   jumps around from from scene to scene as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/602">TS</a>]

00:10:05   these four friends spent absolutely no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/605">TS</a>]

00:10:08   time together on their final night [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/608">TS</a>]

00:10:10   together yes without spoiling a lot one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/610">TS</a>]

00:10:12   of the things that you brought up and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/612">TS</a>]

00:10:14   apologize we're now skipping through [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/614">TS</a>]

00:10:15   this podcast like yeah we totally skip [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/615">TS</a>]

00:10:17   the movie just like American Graffiti [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/617">TS</a>]

00:10:19   we're skipping around to the better yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/619">TS</a>]

00:10:21   but one of the one of the things that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/621">TS</a>]

00:10:22   Phil brought up when you're watching [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/622">TS</a>]

00:10:23   Breaking Away as he said I cannot for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/623">TS</a>]

00:10:26   the life of me figure out why these guys [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/626">TS</a>]

00:10:27   all remained friends and i replied well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/627">TS</a>]

00:10:31   it was it was it's it's a friendship of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/631">TS</a>]

00:10:33   geographical convenience because these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/633">TS</a>]

00:10:36   guys have probably all known each other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/636">TS</a>]

00:10:37   since they were kindergartners right and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/637">TS</a>]

00:10:39   they're their parents are probably [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/639">TS</a>]

00:10:41   intertwined in some ways there's always [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/641">TS</a>]

00:10:43   been pressure to hang out you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/643">TS</a>]

00:10:44   suddenly go we're having a BBQ blitz on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/644">TS</a>]

00:10:46   so the hill you'll see Stevie or what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/646">TS</a>]

00:10:48   have you and you know aside from the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/648">TS</a>]

00:10:51   circumstances that they shared there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/651">TS</a>]

00:10:53   not a whole lot to bond them and so when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/653">TS</a>]

00:10:55   I was watching American Graffiti right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/655">TS</a>]

00:10:57   feel it did make sense that they were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/657">TS</a>]

00:10:58   just kind of splintering off and doing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/658">TS</a>]

00:10:59   their own thing because as far as they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/659">TS</a>]

00:11:03   were concerned two of their number were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/663">TS</a>]

00:11:04   already headed out of the valley and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/664">TS</a>]

00:11:05   therefore they were automatically taking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/665">TS</a>]

00:11:07   them cell [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/667">TS</a>]

00:11:08   off that we have something in common [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/668">TS</a>]

00:11:09   list by virtue of leaving they were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/669">TS</a>]

00:11:11   declaring themselves outsiders the whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/671">TS</a>]

00:11:13   tone of this movie I mean this is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/673">TS</a>]

00:11:15   end of the summer this is the last [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/675">TS</a>]

00:11:18   hurrah the friends are going off to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/678">TS</a>]

00:11:20   school you it is about like a last you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/680">TS</a>]

00:11:23   know everything is ending so them them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/683">TS</a>]

00:11:25   splitting apart and going their own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/685">TS</a>]

00:11:26   separate ways on the night is you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/686">TS</a>]

00:11:28   that's what they're going to do anyway [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/688">TS</a>]

00:11:30   we've been having fun all summer long [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/690">TS</a>]

00:11:31   and now it's over I find it really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/691">TS</a>]

00:11:33   interesting that Steve for all of his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/693">TS</a>]

00:11:35   valedictory ax Brava Brava about getting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/695">TS</a>]

00:11:38   out of there spends the most time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/698">TS</a>]

00:11:39   retracing his high school steps over and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/699">TS</a>]

00:11:42   over again like between the sock hop and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/702">TS</a>]

00:11:44   his inadvertent discovery that when you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/704">TS</a>]

00:11:48   tell a girl you're gonna see other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/708">TS</a>]

00:11:49   people she's gonna she's going to take [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/709">TS</a>]

00:11:50   that information and run with it um you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/710">TS</a>]

00:11:54   know he talked a big game about getting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/714">TS</a>]

00:11:56   out but I kind of feel like his end like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/716">TS</a>]

00:11:58   the ending of his movie was was pretty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/718">TS</a>]

00:11:59   much pretty well to help Telegraph by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/719">TS</a>]

00:12:01   the end of Act one so so let me leap in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/721">TS</a>]

00:12:03   there and here's how we will tell the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/723">TS</a>]

00:12:06   tale I will I'll sort of summarize the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/726">TS</a>]

00:12:09   stories of the four characters in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/729">TS</a>]

00:12:12   order that I find them interesting I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/732">TS</a>]

00:12:15   like two quick issues that I have before [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/735">TS</a>]

00:12:17   we go good yeah go ahead Steve first of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/737">TS</a>]

00:12:19   all and this is just a personal problem [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/739">TS</a>]

00:12:21   I suspect but as with every film i have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/741">TS</a>]

00:12:24   ever seen with richard dreyfuss in it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/744">TS</a>]

00:12:26   something about him just makes me want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/746">TS</a>]

00:12:28   to punch him i'm not sure what it is in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/748">TS</a>]

00:12:30   this movie he's particularly bad because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/750">TS</a>]

00:12:32   he's being wishy-washy and i like it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/752">TS</a>]

00:12:33   does is it i don't know if i'm gonna go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/753">TS</a>]

00:12:36   to college and i just don't give a rat's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/756">TS</a>]

00:12:38   ass if he goes or not but there's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/758">TS</a>]

00:12:40   something about the way he carries [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/760">TS</a>]

00:12:41   himself that just it's it's hard for me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/761">TS</a>]

00:12:43   to enjoy anything that he's in and this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/763">TS</a>]

00:12:45   one is particularly bad the second the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/765">TS</a>]

00:12:47   second is that one of the main bhi plots [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/767">TS</a>]

00:12:49   of this thing that the Terry the toad B [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/769">TS</a>]

00:12:51   plot is contingent on Steve deciding [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/771">TS</a>]

00:12:55   he's going to let toad have his car [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/775">TS</a>]

00:12:57   while he's away yeah watch it he's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/777">TS</a>]

00:13:06   washer is to take off in it and rifle [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/786">TS</a>]

00:13:08   way and Steve seems okay with it he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/788">TS</a>]

00:13:10   got his mind on other things yeah i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/790">TS</a>]

00:13:44   grown too big for the scene totally damn [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/824">TS</a>]

00:14:08   insurances all right yeah it's I feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/848">TS</a>]

00:14:12   like the whole reason that Steve is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/852">TS</a>]

00:14:13   different from kurt i think is that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/853">TS</a>]

00:14:15   steve has this fantasy in his head of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/855">TS</a>]

00:14:18   how it's going to work out like he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/858">TS</a>]

00:14:20   going to leave in a a love teary [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/860">TS</a>]

00:14:24   goodbyes they'll town will recognize [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/864">TS</a>]

00:14:26   that their lesser without him and and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/866">TS</a>]

00:14:28   he's off like he's got this whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/868">TS</a>]

00:14:29   fantasy in his head about everything [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/869">TS</a>]

00:14:31   will freeze in amber the minute he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/871">TS</a>]

00:14:33   leaves because he can't conceive of life [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/873">TS</a>]

00:14:35   in that town going on without it like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/875">TS</a>]

00:14:36   that's just the way he's wired whereas [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/876">TS</a>]

00:14:38   Kurt is terrified that if he leaves and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/878">TS</a>]

00:14:41   things change without him it proves that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/881">TS</a>]

00:14:42   he didn't matter at all and you know I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/882">TS</a>]

00:14:45   think I think that's I think the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/885">TS</a>]

00:14:46   fundamental differences is that Steve [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/886">TS</a>]

00:16:28   i'm not good luck with it I know I know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/988">TS</a>]

00:16:33   have the same the Richard Dreyfuss that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/993">TS</a>]

00:16:36   let's face it lots of Americans have um [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/996">TS</a>]

00:16:39   1970s Richard Dreyfuss was really really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/999">TS</a>]

00:16:43   went on a bit of a winning streak and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1003">TS</a>]

00:16:45   this was sort of the the beginning of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1005">TS</a>]

00:16:47   that because in a four year period he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1007">TS</a>]

00:16:48   did this he did the apprenticeship of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1008">TS</a>]

00:16:51   duddy kravitz he did jaws he did close [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1011">TS</a>]

00:16:54   encounters of the third kind and then he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1014">TS</a>]

00:16:56   he capped that off with the goodbye girl [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1016">TS</a>]

00:16:58   for which he won an Oscar so that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1018">TS</a>]

00:17:00   that's that's a nice little run of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1020">TS</a>]

00:17:01   movies there where Richard Dreyfuss [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1021">TS</a>]

00:17:04   could do no wrong even if some people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1024">TS</a>]

00:17:07   might have wanted to punch him even in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1027">TS</a>]

00:17:11   Jaws which I dearly love is a film that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1031">TS</a>]

00:17:13   there's something about him that just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1033">TS</a>]

00:17:14   makes me want to slug him just haul off [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1034">TS</a>]

00:17:16   and pop him one that's like such a great [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1036">TS</a>]

00:17:18   part of the character in Jaws though the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1038">TS</a>]

00:17:20   idea that yeah that's definitely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1040">TS</a>]

00:17:21   punchable outside because he is so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1041">TS</a>]

00:17:24   condescending to ya you're gonna shine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1044">TS</a>]

00:17:26   yes was no boating accident yes yeah it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1046">TS</a>]

00:17:30   works in Jaws here here it kind of takes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1050">TS</a>]

00:17:32   away from my enjoyment but that's my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1052">TS</a>]

00:17:34   care hmm alright but um okay so the four [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1054">TS</a>]

00:18:17   fact that she is so weird makes it okay [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1097">TS</a>]

00:18:19   that toad is clearly punching above his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1099">TS</a>]

00:18:21   weight class when he manages to get her [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1101">TS</a>]

00:18:46   drinking too much liquor toad getting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1126">TS</a>]

00:18:48   the car stolen from him toad discovering [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1128">TS</a>]

00:18:51   the car towed getting beat up by the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1131">TS</a>]

00:18:52   people who have stolen the car until [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1132">TS</a>]

00:18:54   he's saved by a Palo mad yeah his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1134">TS</a>]

00:18:58   fortuitous arrival who in honor since [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1138">TS</a>]

00:19:01   John syracuse's on the podcast the deus [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1141">TS</a>]

00:19:03   ex machina no that's rated where he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1143">TS</a>]

00:19:06   swoops in and saves um uh saves a toad [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1146">TS</a>]

00:19:11   so amazingly car graphite boy yes watch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1151">TS</a>]

00:19:15   out John Woo I like the fight because it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1155">TS</a>]

00:19:19   shows exactly how dumb and pointless and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1159">TS</a>]

00:19:20   confusing these things tend to be well I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1160">TS</a>]

00:19:22   would have but that's fine but I don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1162">TS</a>]

00:19:24   think they could have done better making [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1164">TS</a>]

00:19:26   it look like maybe one or two as punches [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1166">TS</a>]

00:19:27   landed mmm they would kind of look like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1167">TS</a>]

00:19:29   they were like like a wrestling worthy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1169">TS</a>]

00:19:31   you know siblings wrestling in their [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1171">TS</a>]

00:19:33   pajamas look more real than that funny [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1173">TS</a>]

00:19:35   but I think I think that is a byproduct [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1175">TS</a>]

00:19:37   of we we have X amount of dollars to to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1177">TS</a>]

00:19:41   make this movie and we're not doing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1181">TS</a>]

00:19:43   reshoots so they didn't have the thought [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1183">TS</a>]

00:19:45   technology of quick cuts so it's like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1185">TS</a>]

00:19:47   well you know this is how long you hold [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1187">TS</a>]

00:19:48   shots and if you people are fumbling [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1188">TS</a>]

00:19:50   against each other is there's no way to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1190">TS</a>]

00:19:52   fix that it's not like we can make a cut [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1192">TS</a>]

00:19:53   every two seconds or every one second [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1193">TS</a>]

00:19:55   they didn't know you know John Lucas's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1195">TS</a>]

00:19:57   original script had them fighting from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1197">TS</a>]

00:19:59   separate couches [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1199">TS</a>]

00:20:00   so I really enjoy the toad storyline I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1200">TS</a>]

00:20:04   just it is um both very funny very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1204">TS</a>]

00:20:09   heartwarming very cringe-inducing and um [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1209">TS</a>]

00:20:11   I I think he is one of the more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1211">TS</a>]

00:20:14   identifiable characters in the movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1214">TS</a>]

00:20:16   because who among us doesn't feel like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1216">TS</a>]

00:20:20   toad where we're trying to to blend in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1220">TS</a>]

00:20:24   and and look cool and we know deep down [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1224">TS</a>]

00:20:27   in our hearts we can sit in that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1227">TS</a>]

00:20:29   beautiful car and and no one's going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1229">TS</a>]

00:20:31   to be fooled well yep what is his arc [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1231">TS</a>]

00:20:35   though like he ends but we're gonna skip [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1235">TS</a>]

00:20:37   to the end of the night but at the end [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1237">TS</a>]

00:20:39   of the night he ends like he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1239">TS</a>]

00:20:41   dishevelled his glasses are broken he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1241">TS</a>]

00:20:43   gotten beaten up he's sitting on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1243">TS</a>]

00:20:44   curb talking to Debbie and and she's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1244">TS</a>]

00:20:47   like well you know maybe you can call me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1247">TS</a>]

00:20:49   like we had actually had a good time she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1249">TS</a>]

00:20:52   describes her you know we had a good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1252">TS</a>]

00:20:54   time because here's what we did maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1254">TS</a>]

00:20:56   that was fun for her to watch all those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1256">TS</a>]

00:20:58   things happen to him like a sort of an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1258">TS</a>]

00:21:00   observer but toes gotta be saying that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1260">TS</a>]

00:21:03   your idea of a good time like why would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1263">TS</a>]

00:21:05   I sign up for that again why am I ever [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1265">TS</a>]

00:21:06   gonna give you a call is like the idea I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1266">TS</a>]

00:21:08   feel like you just described his arc as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1268">TS</a>]

00:21:09   he's had that moment of realization [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1269">TS</a>]

00:21:11   trees like this is bull and you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1271">TS</a>]

00:21:14   he's gonna take that observation it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1274">TS</a>]

00:21:16   going to make him feel better about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1276">TS</a>]

00:21:17   being left out of the social flow for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1277">TS</a>]

00:21:20   the next 12 months but is he gonna call [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1280">TS</a>]

00:21:22   her but she's like maybe you can call me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1282">TS</a>]

00:21:23   sometime you seem like you never get it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1283">TS</a>]

00:21:25   well yeah my sense is his arc is all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1285">TS</a>]

00:21:27   that happened but I've got a girl now I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1287">TS</a>]

00:21:29   don't know that's a good match that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1289">TS</a>]

00:21:33   one of my meta problems with this whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1293">TS</a>]

00:21:35   movie is that kind of the the lesson [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1295">TS</a>]

00:21:37   there are various lessons of the but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1297">TS</a>]

00:21:39   like the ideal that everyone is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1299">TS</a>]

00:21:42   character seems to be shooting for is an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1302">TS</a>]

00:21:43   ideal that doesn't really sound that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1303">TS</a>]

00:21:46   appealing it seems like you need a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1306">TS</a>]

00:21:47   follow-up movie for them to all learn [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1307">TS</a>]

00:21:49   that the ideal that they were all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1309">TS</a>]

00:21:50   shooting course it was also a lie but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1310">TS</a>]

00:21:52   that's not this movie well there's more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1312">TS</a>]

00:21:53   American Graffiti come out either no it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1313">TS</a>]

00:21:57   really isn't but John what you just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1317">TS</a>]

00:21:58   articulated the idea that this ideal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1318">TS</a>]

00:22:00   that you're shooting for is really it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1320">TS</a>]

00:22:02   falls short of what you could do or it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1322">TS</a>]

00:22:05   doesn't quite meet up with the hype I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1325">TS</a>]

00:22:07   feel like that's also one of the points [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1327">TS</a>]

00:22:09   which is that these guys have invested [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1329">TS</a>]

00:22:11   so much emotional capital [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1331">TS</a>]

00:22:14   into this this whole scene and who they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1334">TS</a>]

00:22:16   are and how they interact with people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1336">TS</a>]

00:22:17   and is it really worth it and some of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1337">TS</a>]

00:22:20   them are like oh no it's not whereas [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1340">TS</a>]

00:22:22   some yeah and I think that's one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1342">TS</a>]

00:22:25   those pivotal things you learn in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1345">TS</a>]

00:22:26   adolescence to is is you have your own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1346">TS</a>]

00:22:28   moment where you look around and you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1348">TS</a>]

00:22:30   realize I have been prioritizing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1350">TS</a>]

00:22:34   something completely wrong and wow the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1354">TS</a>]

00:22:36   scales have fallen from my eyes you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1356">TS</a>]

00:22:38   I again I one of the reasons I had like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1358">TS</a>]

00:22:40   a full body cringe in this entire movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1360">TS</a>]

00:22:42   is because he kept nailing all of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1362">TS</a>]

00:22:45   notes that go into being like 16 17 18 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1365">TS</a>]

00:22:48   years old and beginning to try to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1368">TS</a>]

00:22:52   imagine or articulate the life that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1372">TS</a>]

00:22:55   you're going to have passed high school [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1375">TS</a>]

00:22:56   and passed these people that you've been [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1376">TS</a>]

00:22:58   thrown with wholly by accident or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1378">TS</a>]

00:23:00   circumstance for the entirety of your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1380">TS</a>]

00:23:02   life yeah I do get that I get like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1382">TS</a>]

00:23:04   pervasive sadness over this whole movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1384">TS</a>]

00:23:07   of like of a thing coming to an end like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1387">TS</a>]

00:23:10   it yeah this movie knows that everything [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1390">TS</a>]

00:23:12   you see here has to come to an end it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1392">TS</a>]

00:23:13   that I think I'm staking taking it a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1393">TS</a>]

00:23:14   step further insight not only is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1394">TS</a>]

00:23:16   everything this movie have to come to an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1396">TS</a>]

00:23:17   end but the even if it didn't or even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1397">TS</a>]

00:23:19   when it was happening was also very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1399">TS</a>]

00:23:21   horrible and I mean well get to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1401">TS</a>]

00:23:23   ending ending where they have the gut [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1403">TS</a>]

00:23:24   punch of the faces over the sky as the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1404">TS</a>]

00:23:26   the final ending of the movie i guess [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1406">TS</a>]

00:23:28   that's their way of fast forwarding is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1408">TS</a>]

00:23:29   sake and by the way these kids still [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1409">TS</a>]

00:23:31   don't know what the hell's and starve [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1411">TS</a>]

00:23:32   them take a look at this yeah yeah I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1412">TS</a>]

00:23:33   love that up along it's crap sandwich [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1413">TS</a>]

00:23:35   all around yeah enjoy hope you like the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1415">TS</a>]

00:23:38   movie welcome to the 70s I think the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1418">TS</a>]

00:23:40   reason Phil demanded that I be in this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1420">TS</a>]

00:23:42   podcast is um we watched an epilogue and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1422">TS</a>]

00:23:45   I turned to him and I said you know the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1425">TS</a>]

00:23:46   first time I watched this movie I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1426">TS</a>]

00:23:47   watched with my parents when I was like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1427">TS</a>]

00:23:49   12 or 13 years old and we got to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1429">TS</a>]

00:23:52   epilogue and I remember like I remember [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1432">TS</a>]

00:23:55   feeling so shocked and so betrayed by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1435">TS</a>]

00:23:58   the fact that two of these characters [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1438">TS</a>]

00:23:59   like then died off screen oh and one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1439">TS</a>]

00:24:03   them never goes back to the hometown in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1443">TS</a>]

00:24:05   the one of them stays and I was upset [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1445">TS</a>]

00:24:07   that they killed the characters and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1447">TS</a>]

00:24:09   what upset me further was realizing that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1449">TS</a>]

00:24:11   again I was like these guys didn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1451">TS</a>]

00:24:13   matter to each other they had lives that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1453">TS</a>]

00:24:15   I said they just didn't matter they had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1455">TS</a>]

00:24:17   lives that moved on my parents yeah this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1457">TS</a>]

00:24:18   is what happens after high school is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1458">TS</a>]

00:24:20   people that you spend all this time with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1460">TS</a>]

00:24:21   it doesn't matter what they do because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1461">TS</a>]

00:24:23   their lives are not your lives and you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1463">TS</a>]

00:24:25   have to you have to learn how to you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1465">TS</a>]

00:24:27   have to learn how to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1467">TS</a>]

00:24:27   move past that and so I think when I saw [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1467">TS</a>]

00:24:30   American Graffiti in a really pivotal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1470">TS</a>]

00:24:32   age where it's like yeah you don't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1472">TS</a>]

00:24:33   what's going to happen and you don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1473">TS</a>]

00:24:35   know and and no one's life is going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1475">TS</a>]

00:24:36   affect you like your own life choices to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1476">TS</a>]

00:24:38   you that was that was crystallized for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1478">TS</a>]

00:24:40   me watching that movie in that epilogue [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1480">TS</a>]

00:24:42   they also tell you don't get into cars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1482">TS</a>]

00:24:43   with strange men the other big lesson of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1483">TS</a>]

00:24:47   the movie is if you're walking down the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1487">TS</a>]

00:24:49   street to be fair no no one ever asked [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1489">TS</a>]

00:24:59   next plot point which is John's Paula [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1499">TS</a>]

00:25:04   Matt's story line whereas he is driving [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1504">TS</a>]

00:25:28   she filmed all that mm-hmm and um [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1528">TS</a>]

00:25:30   realizes he has been had spends much of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1530">TS</a>]

00:25:36   the rest of the movie just fuming about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1536">TS</a>]

00:25:38   the the evening that he's been dealt I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1538">TS</a>]

00:25:46   interaction between those two where he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1546">TS</a>]

00:25:48   becomes a little bit of her Protectorate [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1548">TS</a>]

00:25:52   what I what I like about this um segment [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1552">TS</a>]

00:25:55   is it I haven't really studied George [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1555">TS</a>]

00:25:58   Lucas I get the assumption that he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1558">TS</a>]

00:26:00   really likes westerns cuz the paula mack [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1560">TS</a>]

00:26:02   storyline he it's it's the it's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1562">TS</a>]

00:26:04   gunslinger it's Shane he is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1564">TS</a>]

00:26:07   protector and he and he drives around [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1567">TS</a>]

00:26:14   said yeah yeah I know and I I just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1574">TS</a>]

00:26:19   really like the the interactions between [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1579">TS</a>]

00:26:21   him and and Mackenzie Phillips which I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1581">TS</a>]

00:26:25   think are delightful well he's set up to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1585">TS</a>]

00:26:28   at the beginning like one of these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1588">TS</a>]

00:26:30   things is not like the other like he is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1590">TS</a>]

00:26:31   teased way too cool for the other guys [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1591">TS</a>]

00:26:34   it's kind of amazing that they speak [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1594">TS</a>]

00:26:35   he's got his fancy car and all of that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1595">TS</a>]

00:26:38   and so his story gets to be different [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1598">TS</a>]

00:26:41   from the other stories where he's got he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1601">TS</a>]

00:26:43   gets saddled with this 12 year old girl [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1603">TS</a>]

00:26:45   and he can't find her sister and what I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1605">TS</a>]

00:26:48   love about that is that that my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1608">TS</a>]

00:26:49   expectation for this character is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1609">TS</a>]

00:26:51   completely undermined by the fact that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1611">TS</a>]

00:26:54   he doesn't dump around the side of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1614">TS</a>]

00:26:55   road he talks to her and he's annoyed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1615">TS</a>]

00:26:58   about it but he like he talks to her he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1618">TS</a>]

00:26:59   takes care of her they have a rapport [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1619">TS</a>]

00:27:01   and yeah you know it's going in that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1621">TS</a>]

00:27:03   direction but it's fun because that is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1623">TS</a>]

00:27:05   not what I expected when I you know when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1625">TS</a>]

00:27:08   you first see him he's super cool so of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1628">TS</a>]

00:27:11   course hoodlum yes he runs afoul of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1631">TS</a>]

00:27:13   cops he's a troublemaker he pulls down [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1633">TS</a>]

00:27:16   Terry the toads pants right in front of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1636">TS</a>]

00:27:18   the girl at the drive is yeah but a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1638">TS</a>]

00:27:20   rogue but he has an affection for the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1640">TS</a>]

00:27:21   younger ones he's like the older brother [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1641">TS</a>]

00:27:23   like why is he even talking to that me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1643">TS</a>]

00:27:24   so much older than they are he was out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1644">TS</a>]

00:27:26   of high school long before they were out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1646">TS</a>]

00:27:27   of high school because he never left [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1647">TS</a>]

00:27:29   high school yeah all right all right all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1649">TS</a>]

00:27:30   right now his talk about not wanting to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1650">TS</a>]

00:27:32   go to the sock hop he's he's the one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1652">TS</a>]

00:27:35   that's the most stunted in terms of this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1655">TS</a>]

00:27:36   progression but but he is hanging out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1656">TS</a>]

00:27:38   with them so i think his glory days were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1658">TS</a>]

00:27:39   in high school and the reason he hangs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1659">TS</a>]

00:27:41   out with these younger people is because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1661">TS</a>]

00:27:42   they're still going to regard him as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1662">TS</a>]

00:27:44   having some patina of success or cool [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1664">TS</a>]

00:27:46   whereas people his own age or look right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1666">TS</a>]

00:27:48   through them yeah because they recognize [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1668">TS</a>]

00:27:50   that you know they recognize that he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1670">TS</a>]

00:27:52   on the fast track to nowhere he's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1672">TS</a>]

00:27:54   getting the Moose Lodge well that's why [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1674">TS</a>]

00:27:55   he loves Terry to Terry the toad who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1675">TS</a>]

00:27:57   because there's that big boosterism at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1677">TS</a>]

00:27:59   the end where you know he's recognizing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1679">TS</a>]

00:28:01   you know why he was gonna beat me and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1681">TS</a>]

00:28:03   I'm getting old Terry's like no no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1683">TS</a>]

00:28:06   you're still the greatest been number [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1686">TS</a>]

00:28:08   one always your number-one for another [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1688">TS</a>]

00:28:10   year anyway always have a height man [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1690">TS</a>]

00:28:12   yeah although I want to point out with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1692">TS</a>]

00:28:14   the Paula Matt character is um the guys [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1694">TS</a>]

00:28:17   I knew who were like this used to just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1697">TS</a>]

00:28:19   put girls into two different categories [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1699">TS</a>]

00:28:21   which were these are the girls I want to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1701">TS</a>]

00:28:23   have things to do with and these are the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1703">TS</a>]

00:28:26   girls that I I don't for whatever reason [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1706">TS</a>]

00:28:29   I don't find them attractive they're too [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1709">TS</a>]

00:28:30   young whatever and so while I think it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1710">TS</a>]

00:28:32   great that Paula mods character is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1712">TS</a>]

00:28:34   protector and so on and so forth it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1714">TS</a>]

00:28:36   also broadcasting pretty clearly that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1716">TS</a>]

00:28:38   he's he's put her in a bucket where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1718">TS</a>]

00:28:40   she's untouchable or what have you it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1720">TS</a>]

00:28:41   does again reemphasize the cheese is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1721">TS</a>]

00:28:44   well years old yes that's a sensible is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1724">TS</a>]

00:28:47   not even for some people though I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1727">TS</a>]

00:28:49   of that is a good bucket to put the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1729">TS</a>]

00:28:51   twelfth year old yeah but he's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1731">TS</a>]

00:28:53   making comments like oh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1733">TS</a>]

00:28:54   see you way too girl it's not like I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1734">TS</a>]

00:28:55   don't know if anything ever suffered [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1735">TS</a>]

00:28:57   through the movie beautiful girls um but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1737">TS</a>]

00:28:59   there's a really creepy plotline in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1739">TS</a>]

00:29:01   there in which a teenage Natalie Portman [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1741">TS</a>]

00:29:03   is repeatedly flinging herself at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1743">TS</a>]

00:29:05   timothy hutton and he basically [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1745">TS</a>]

00:29:07   intimates that were not for the fact [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1747">TS</a>]

00:29:09   that there's like a decade to half age [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1749">TS</a>]

00:29:10   difference between them and society [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1750">TS</a>]

00:29:12   friends and that sort of thing he you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1752">TS</a>]

00:29:14   know oh you know if only you were older [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1754">TS</a>]

00:29:16   we get along like a house on fire or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1756">TS</a>]

00:29:17   whatever and like that doesn't happen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1757">TS</a>]

00:29:19   here it's sweet that's the thing I kind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1759">TS</a>]

00:29:21   of find unexpected about it it does [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1761">TS</a>]

00:29:23   remind me the thing that it may even be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1763">TS</a>]

00:29:26   a touchdown for them is James Franco in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1766">TS</a>]

00:29:28   freaks and geeks has his sort of soft [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1768">TS</a>]

00:29:32   spot for the for the load for the geeks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1772">TS</a>]

00:29:35   for the you know Lindsay's younger [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1775">TS</a>]

00:29:37   brother and his friends he's Carlos [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1777">TS</a>]

00:29:38   right with the dungeons and dragons oh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1778">TS</a>]

00:29:40   yeah exactly it reminds me of that a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1780">TS</a>]

00:29:42   little bit where where this is a nice [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1782">TS</a>]

00:29:44   fun story where you got the totally [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1784">TS</a>]

00:29:46   toughest nails cool guy and and and it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1786">TS</a>]

00:29:50   revealed he's a decent human being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1790">TS</a>]

00:29:51   underneath that's his dark secret is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1791">TS</a>]

00:29:53   that is that he's not gonna leave her on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1793">TS</a>]

00:29:55   the side of the road and that in fact [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1795">TS</a>]

00:29:56   they had this conversation he treats her [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1796">TS</a>]

00:29:58   he doesn't treat her creepily she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1798">TS</a>]

00:30:00   doesn't she you know she it's yeah i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1800">TS</a>]

00:30:02   loved it I thought it was great it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1802">TS</a>]

00:30:04   only undercuts slightly by these sort of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1804">TS</a>]

00:30:06   sexual politics of the time being played [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1806">TS</a>]

00:30:08   for laughs in terms of one of her first [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1808">TS</a>]

00:30:10   things is to be like holding over his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1810">TS</a>]

00:30:12   head oh there's a cop I'll scream all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1812">TS</a>]

00:30:14   scream than being raped yeah I had that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1814">TS</a>]

00:30:16   went his way to get her out of the car [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1816">TS</a>]

00:30:18   to be like okay now I have to pretend [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1818">TS</a>]

00:30:19   I'm coming on to you which it still [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1819">TS</a>]

00:30:21   works in the context like look this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1821">TS</a>]

00:30:22   this is the only way to show this kid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1822">TS</a>]

00:30:24   that she's not ready for what she thinks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1824">TS</a>]

00:30:26   she's ready for and yet the way he I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1826">TS</a>]

00:30:29   don't know if he was supposed to be as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1829">TS</a>]

00:30:30   awkward or it's some really bad script [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1830">TS</a>]

00:30:32   writing like I can't imagine that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1832">TS</a>]

00:30:34   have to show him trying to come on to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1834">TS</a>]

00:30:36   her and the lines that he has to say and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1836">TS</a>]

00:30:38   how he says them it's it's the worst [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1838">TS</a>]

00:30:40   ever anyway like I don't can you really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1840">TS</a>]

00:30:43   be that much of a nice guy and do that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1843">TS</a>]

00:30:45   Bluff like I don't that's that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1845">TS</a>]

00:30:47   borderline creepy but all of it within [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1847">TS</a>]

00:30:50   the context of the movie fits because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1850">TS</a>]

00:30:51   like this is the whole mechanic this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1851">TS</a>]

00:30:53   you know predator and prey cruising [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1853">TS</a>]

00:30:55   around in your cars and this is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1855">TS</a>]

00:30:58   mechanic that everyone has accepted they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1858">TS</a>]

00:30:59   were all participating in this game to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1859">TS</a>]

00:31:01   no end that any of them can discern [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1861">TS</a>]

00:31:03   and so it can be used as a plot device [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1863">TS</a>]

00:31:06   in this in this story arc but it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1866">TS</a>]

00:31:08   those are too awkward them I'm gonna [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1868">TS</a>]

00:31:10   chalk it up to bad script writing mainly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1870">TS</a>]

00:31:12   because this is a script that also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1872">TS</a>]

00:31:13   features the exchange I can get tough [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1873">TS</a>]

00:31:15   with you too you know hard guy it's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1875">TS</a>]

00:31:20   it's hard to tell what was supposed to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1880">TS</a>]

00:31:21   be you know yeah want on what was just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1881">TS</a>]

00:31:24   unintentional yeah it's not some of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1884">TS</a>]

00:31:27   might be bad screenwriting and some of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1887">TS</a>]

00:31:28   it might be I'm writing dialogue the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1888">TS</a>]

00:31:30   teenagers would say so I feel like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1890">TS</a>]

00:31:33   teenager could could do a fake come on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1893">TS</a>]

00:31:35   better than he did that mean it may be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1895">TS</a>]

00:31:37   the point was his heart wasn't supposed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1897">TS</a>]

00:31:38   to be in and he couldn't believe he was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1898">TS</a>]

00:31:39   doing it and he's leaning in on her and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1899">TS</a>]

00:31:41   she's getting good no didn't like that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1901">TS</a>]

00:31:43   well maybe he's you know partly hoping [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1903">TS</a>]

00:31:45   that she's not into it but as a whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1905">TS</a>]

00:31:46   put the whole idea that he's trying to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1906">TS</a>]

00:31:48   get her out of the car or tell him tell [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1908">TS</a>]

00:31:50   me where your house is and this is this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1910">TS</a>]

00:31:52   is what I'm gonna do to make it but I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1912">TS</a>]

00:31:53   mean he's he keeps a very clear distance [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1913">TS</a>]

00:31:55   away from her for you know for his own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1915">TS</a>]

00:31:57   reasons and also because you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1917">TS</a>]

00:31:58   there's the possibility that maybe she's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1918">TS</a>]

00:32:00   like oh I'm curious about this I'll give [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1920">TS</a>]

00:32:02   it a go so yeah it does make sense [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1922">TS</a>]

00:32:04   within that context it was certainly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1924">TS</a>]

00:32:06   that the highlight of the arc i think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1926">TS</a>]

00:32:08   was them like a shaven creaming the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1928">TS</a>]

00:32:09   neighboring car and let his hair out of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1929">TS</a>]

00:32:11   the tires i'm running around that was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1931">TS</a>]

00:32:12   nicely shot and that was i concurred [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1932">TS</a>]

00:32:14   that was fun although that is one heck [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1934">TS</a>]

00:32:16   of a big can of shaving cream get a lot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1936">TS</a>]

00:32:18   of mileage out of that do you know it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1938">TS</a>]

00:32:19   goes a long way because that one's been [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1939">TS</a>]

00:32:20   used already she still has it with her [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1940">TS</a>]

00:32:22   from the previous car shaving cream [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1942">TS</a>]

00:32:24   incident in Eisenhower's America men [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1944">TS</a>]

00:32:26   wanted big fans of shaving cream jam and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1946">TS</a>]

00:32:28   she covers that entire damn car with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1948">TS</a>]

00:32:30   that one can that's already been used [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1950">TS</a>]

00:32:32   once it's crazy so they will go quickly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1952">TS</a>]

00:32:35   through the Ron Howard Steve plotline [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1955">TS</a>]

00:32:38   because we've already really hit the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1958">TS</a>]

00:32:40   highlights in a way kind of the most [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1960">TS</a>]

00:32:43   poignant cuz he is he thinks one thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1963">TS</a>]

00:32:46   and no he learns and one another you are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1966">TS</a>]

00:32:50   you you think you were X but you were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1970">TS</a>]

00:32:52   actually why yes so the movie begins [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1972">TS</a>]

00:32:55   with him telling Cindy Williams will see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1975">TS</a>]

00:32:57   other people Cindy Williamson okay after [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1977">TS</a>]

00:33:01   being initially put off by it Ron Howard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1981">TS</a>]

00:33:04   going look what no usually supposed to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1984">TS</a>]

00:33:07   react like that you were supposed to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1987">TS</a>]

00:33:08   collapse weeping and accept it and yes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1988">TS</a>]

00:33:11   yeah and and move on and they they have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1991">TS</a>]

00:33:15   a fight they get separated [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1995">TS</a>]

00:33:17   uh he during all this process realizes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/1997">TS</a>]

00:33:22   that maybe he's not so eager to get out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2002">TS</a>]

00:33:24   of this this one-horse town as much as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2004">TS</a>]

00:33:27   he thought he would and it all coalesces [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2007">TS</a>]

00:33:30   into the plot where again all four [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2010">TS</a>]

00:33:32   characters sort of come together which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2012">TS</a>]

00:33:33   will we'll get to in a moment the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2013">TS</a>]

00:33:36   scene that I really like in the the Ron [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2016">TS</a>]

00:33:38   Howard story is is at the sock hop when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2018">TS</a>]

00:33:40   they're doing the the hunt the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2020">TS</a>]

00:33:43   unfortunately named snowball dance um [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2023">TS</a>]

00:33:45   and actually the best performance there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2025">TS</a>]

00:33:48   is Cindy Williams because she um you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2028">TS</a>]

00:33:50   just see her go from just fury to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2030">TS</a>]

00:33:53   sadness in in about the time it takes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2033">TS</a>]

00:33:57   Paul am at to to drive down the streets [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2037">TS</a>]

00:34:00   of Petaluma it's just a really a really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2040">TS</a>]

00:34:04   great scene that conveys a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2044">TS</a>]

00:34:08   emotion and a lot of depth and and and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2048">TS</a>]

00:34:10   for that I kind of uh like that bit of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2050">TS</a>]

00:34:13   the plot line though the Ron Howard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2053">TS</a>]

00:34:15   character really doesn't press a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2055">TS</a>]

00:34:18   buttons for me unfortunately no I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2058">TS</a>]

00:34:20   either and I knew kids like him oh sure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2060">TS</a>]

00:34:22   he's there I mean he's there doing I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2062">TS</a>]

00:34:25   think what the what this requires which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2065">TS</a>]

00:34:27   is he's the wide-eyed you know he's call [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2067">TS</a>]

00:34:30   it gonna be the college boy and all of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2070">TS</a>]

00:34:31   that I don't know I mean that also the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2071">TS</a>]

00:34:34   this is the end of summer but there's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2074">TS</a>]

00:34:36   sock hop so I guess that maybe the high [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2076">TS</a>]

00:34:38   schools already started and so that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2078">TS</a>]

00:34:40   they've got an event at the at the gym [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2080">TS</a>]

00:34:42   yeah it's like it's like the orientation [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2082">TS</a>]

00:34:44   and it's hard to say not to see that as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2084">TS</a>]

00:34:47   a kind of a weed a scene with a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2087">TS</a>]

00:34:50   yet with an American Bandstand kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2090">TS</a>]

00:34:54   dancing and things like that and so it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2094">TS</a>]

00:34:57   it's it's in there that's by the way [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2097">TS</a>]

00:34:59   speaking of locations that's the that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2099">TS</a>]

00:35:01   the gym at the high school my daughter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2101">TS</a>]

00:35:02   goes to 0 I thought I saw that Khris was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2102">TS</a>]

00:35:05   like oh that's reducing so yeah and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2105">TS</a>]

00:35:07   kathleen quinlan who is in this as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2107">TS</a>]

00:35:19   great and and she was she had just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2119">TS</a>]

00:35:21   graduated from that high school when she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2121">TS</a>]

00:35:23   was in this movie with the scene set [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2123">TS</a>]

00:35:25   that she's in at the high school gym [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2125">TS</a>]

00:35:27   it's just what a weird experience to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2127">TS</a>]

00:35:29   graduate from high school and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2129">TS</a>]

00:35:35   wonderful silver of discord oh yeah yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2135">TS</a>]

00:35:40   Skyrim scenes are all good in this movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2140">TS</a>]

00:35:41   when their kids were talking to each [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2141">TS</a>]

00:35:43   other in the bathrooms even like the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2143">TS</a>]

00:35:44   boys making fun of the the zip makeup [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2144">TS</a>]

00:35:47   and then showing it Cherry Bomb you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2147">TS</a>]

00:35:50   right man through the one in there cuz [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2150">TS</a>]

00:35:52   this the thing that happens and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2152">TS</a>]

00:35:52   girls saying you know that you forget it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2152">TS</a>]

00:35:54   this guy's leaving you gotta forget [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2154">TS</a>]

00:35:56   about them what do you have to see him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2156">TS</a>]

00:35:57   forever like just the snare rank talk [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2157">TS</a>]

00:35:59   among once the de genders are separated [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2159">TS</a>]

00:36:01   in in their bathroom environments all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2161">TS</a>]

00:36:02   while looking in the mirrors that was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2162">TS</a>]

00:36:03   all good yep know if you go to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2163">TS</a>]

00:36:06   bathroom as a girl in high school you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2166">TS</a>]

00:36:07   you develop like five best friends as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2167">TS</a>]

00:36:09   you talk over the sink truth sir [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2169">TS</a>]

00:36:12   exchanged insights are plumbed it's it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2172">TS</a>]

00:36:15   it's beautiful come to think of it and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2175">TS</a>]

00:36:17   that's one of the few see well that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2177">TS</a>]

00:36:18   actually my biggest complaint about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2178">TS</a>]

00:36:20   american graffiti is is perhaps that is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2180">TS</a>]

00:36:24   really and again it's a product of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2184">TS</a>]

00:36:26   filmmaker because george lucas has never [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2186">TS</a>]

00:36:28   been known to be particularly and and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2188">TS</a>]

00:36:30   empathetic towards lots of different [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2190">TS</a>]

00:36:33   points of view but it's a story in which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2193">TS</a>]

00:36:35   the women aren't really people most of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2195">TS</a>]

00:36:37   the time yeah and right but tivity to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2197">TS</a>]

00:36:40   fair the men aren't always people still [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2200">TS</a>]

00:36:44   you have but still you have for you have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2204">TS</a>]

00:36:46   four characters whose stories are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2206">TS</a>]

00:36:47   treated as important true and in every [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2207">TS</a>]

00:36:50   one of those stories a woman can nudge [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2210">TS</a>]

00:36:51   the action along or she can be the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2211">TS</a>]

00:36:53   reward at the end of the action or what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2213">TS</a>]

00:36:55   have you but the scene where the women [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2215">TS</a>]

00:36:57   are talking in the bathroom is literally [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2217">TS</a>]

00:36:59   the only time in the movie where like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2219">TS</a>]

00:37:01   they're acknowledged as human beings [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2221">TS</a>]

00:37:02   that are actually the stars of their own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2222">TS</a>]

00:37:05   stories and have their own motivations [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2225">TS</a>]

00:37:06   and aspirations separate of how they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2226">TS</a>]

00:37:09   interact with these these turkeys and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2229">TS</a>]

00:37:10   chinos yeah and and so that's one of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2230">TS</a>]

00:37:12   reasons i like it so much is because it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2232">TS</a>]

00:37:14   actually treats the women as people and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2234">TS</a>]

00:37:16   that doesn't happen in a whole lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2236">TS</a>]

00:37:18   the other seems i do like that Cindy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2238">TS</a>]

00:37:20   Williams right because in the script it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2240">TS</a>]

00:37:23   Ron Howard basically says how we're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2243">TS</a>]

00:37:24   gonna see other people right and she's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2244">TS</a>]

00:37:26   like um right I mean I like that I like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2246">TS</a>]

00:37:28   that she is acting of her own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2248">TS</a>]

00:37:30   self-interest and her own best interest [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2250">TS</a>]

00:37:32   through this movie because I feel like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2252">TS</a>]

00:37:33   you know she could have been written [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2253">TS</a>]

00:37:35   another way where she was like oh sure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2255">TS</a>]

00:37:37   whatever you say Steve I didn't I felt [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2257">TS</a>]

00:37:40   like that scene she was she it seemed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2260">TS</a>]

00:37:42   like she was had been so conditioned her [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2262">TS</a>]

00:37:43   entire life [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2263">TS</a>]

00:37:44   be agreeable the one presented with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2264">TS</a>]

00:37:46   something that was disagreeable it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2266">TS</a>]

00:37:48   almost like she couldn't physically [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2268">TS</a>]

00:37:50   disagree in the moment but merely had to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2270">TS</a>]

00:37:53   go all right I guess this is the thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2273">TS</a>]

00:37:55   we're doing I must remain agreeable and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2275">TS</a>]

00:37:57   only later as the movie progresses like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2277">TS</a>]

00:37:59   wait a second that yes yeah culminating [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2279">TS</a>]

00:38:01   in the scene where they're dancing and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2281">TS</a>]

00:38:02   she's pissed off of them and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2282">TS</a>]

00:38:03   spotlight is on them oh this is like it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2283">TS</a>]

00:38:06   like it took her like three scenes to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2286">TS</a>]

00:38:07   figure out like wait wait a second what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2287">TS</a>]

00:38:09   do you even you know and then she's like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2289">TS</a>]

00:38:11   really had it by the time she's in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2291">TS</a>]

00:38:12   car with Harrison Ford obviously mm-hmm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2292">TS</a>]

00:38:14   I also feel like again part of the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2294">TS</a>]

00:38:16   way Steve is written is he's obviously [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2296">TS</a>]

00:38:17   he's obviously been the town's golden [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2297">TS</a>]

00:38:21   boy like you know adults like him and he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2301">TS</a>]

00:38:23   was probably God's person Senor soup [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2303">TS</a>]

00:38:25   relatives and teachers went easy on him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2305">TS</a>]

00:38:27   and there was always this presumption [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2307">TS</a>]

00:38:29   that Steve deserved to succeed and when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2309">TS</a>]

00:38:32   you are the girlfriend of the Golden Boy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2312">TS</a>]

00:38:34   you are from like you that's one of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2314">TS</a>]

00:38:36   trade-offs you make as well you know of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2316">TS</a>]

00:38:38   course why wouldn't you go along with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2318">TS</a>]

00:38:40   him he's obviously right he's set up and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2320">TS</a>]

00:38:41   then she realizes it no actually he's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2321">TS</a>]

00:38:44   turkey I hate it when Richie and Shirley [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2324">TS</a>]

00:38:47   fight though it isn't sad yeah I don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2327">TS</a>]

00:38:49   know how he got his on TV I mean I you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2329">TS</a>]

00:38:51   know the chronology is backwards but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2331">TS</a>]

00:38:52   like he does not have a lot of charisma [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2332">TS</a>]

00:38:54   in this movie I feel like of all the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2334">TS</a>]

00:38:55   people in this may I think Richard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2335">TS</a>]

00:38:56   Dreyfuss has more charisma than run time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2336">TS</a>]

00:38:58   in this movie well and not to not to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2338">TS</a>]

00:39:01   delve into happy days um uh huh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2341">TS</a>]

00:39:04   backstory but really it was kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2344">TS</a>]

00:39:07   conceived that Anson Williams would be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2347">TS</a>]

00:39:10   as like a co-lead in that series along [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2350">TS</a>]

00:39:14   with Richie Cunningham and then everyone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2354">TS</a>]

00:39:16   gravitated towards Fonzarelli yeah which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2356">TS</a>]

00:39:19   it who is I would say when I saw John [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2359">TS</a>]

00:39:21   the first time in this I always like oh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2361">TS</a>]

00:39:24   he's a he's he's he's the Fonzie right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2364">TS</a>]

00:39:26   here than Fonzie like I i I'd also heard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2366">TS</a>]

00:39:31   the connection between the show and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2371">TS</a>]

00:39:32   happy days and I watched happy days you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2372">TS</a>]

00:39:33   know my whole childhood and this movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2373">TS</a>]

00:39:36   could not be farther than happy days in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2376">TS</a>]

00:39:38   every at like the setting is the same [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2378">TS</a>]

00:39:39   but in terms of tone and Carol shortened [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2379">TS</a>]

00:39:41   and treatment it's like nothing from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2381">TS</a>]

00:39:44   this movie made it into a b days except [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2384">TS</a>]

00:39:45   for the outfits yeah although Richie is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2385">TS</a>]

00:39:47   Jimmy's boring as Steve and that's what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2387">TS</a>]

00:39:49   I was going to say is that Ron Howard's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2389">TS</a>]

00:39:50   not that interesting and happy days too [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2390">TS</a>]

00:39:52   that's why Swansea became the star but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2392">TS</a>]

00:39:54   but he works as a straight man for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2394">TS</a>]

00:39:56   Fonzie to be like it's because it's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2396">TS</a>]

00:39:57   stupid comedy thing it's got to be like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2397">TS</a>]

00:40:00   you know he's he's your boring [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2400">TS</a>]

00:40:01   protagonist who things happen to and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2401">TS</a>]

00:40:03   gets advised by the Alpha characters it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2403">TS</a>]

00:40:05   works in a sitcom thing problem with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2405">TS</a>]

00:40:07   Steve and Kurt both for me is there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2407">TS</a>]

00:40:10   clearly the two that we're supposed to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2410">TS</a>]

00:40:11   be relating the most to because health [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2411">TS</a>]

00:40:14   John and Terry are they're both [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2414">TS</a>]

00:40:15   caricature there on the outliers there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2415">TS</a>]

00:40:17   getting around that and they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2417">TS</a>]

00:40:18   interesting because of that because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2418">TS</a>]

00:40:20   because he does play a little with the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2420">TS</a>]

00:40:22   expectations on John and Terry's is kind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2422">TS</a>]

00:40:24   of funny but I think Lucas does a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2424">TS</a>]

00:40:28   assuming here that we're just going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2428">TS</a>]

00:40:30   see the inherent interestingness in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2430">TS</a>]

00:40:32   Steven Kurt because he does because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2432">TS</a>]

00:40:34   they're sort of him yes but there's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2434">TS</a>]

00:40:36   nothing there so unless you're George [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2436">TS</a>]

00:40:39   Lucas or somebody who grew up exactly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2439">TS</a>]

00:40:41   like George Lucas or one of these two [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2441">TS</a>]

00:40:42   clowns that were supposed to relate to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2442">TS</a>]

00:40:43   you just can't well I like so I mean I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2443">TS</a>]

00:40:46   was going to bring up that because we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2446">TS</a>]

00:40:47   probably should talk about Richard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2447">TS</a>]

00:40:49   Dreyfuss is Kurt in his story I think I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2449">TS</a>]

00:40:52   think what's interesting about that from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2452">TS</a>]

00:40:54   my perspective is he seems he's he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2454">TS</a>]

00:40:57   this kind of wishy-washy guy right the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2457">TS</a>]

00:40:59   first time we see him he's like I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2459">TS</a>]

00:41:00   probably not going to go i don't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2460">TS</a>]

00:41:01   and all that but so so he served meant [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2461">TS</a>]

00:41:03   to be frustrating and infuriating and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2463">TS</a>]

00:41:05   then he has a wacky like a series of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2465">TS</a>]

00:41:09   wacky adventures like the wacky [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2469">TS</a>]

00:41:12   adventure plot I saved him from last [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2472">TS</a>]

00:41:15   because the of all the plot lines it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2475">TS</a>]

00:41:18   the it felt the most contrived to me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2478">TS</a>]

00:41:21   where he falls in with the local gang of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2481">TS</a>]

00:41:23   toughs yeah feroz i gotta say i love [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2483">TS</a>]

00:41:28   parts of the pharaohs and and Kurt plot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2488">TS</a>]

00:41:32   and I think it actually goes well with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2492">TS</a>]

00:41:34   with the with the toad plot too because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2494">TS</a>]

00:41:37   these are the a sequence of unlikely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2497">TS</a>]

00:41:39   events that keep happening and you it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2499">TS</a>]

00:41:41   a long boy I it was a long night you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2501">TS</a>]

00:41:44   know it's one of those kind of stories [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2504">TS</a>]

00:41:45   where this happened and this happened [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2505">TS</a>]

00:41:46   and I kind of like movies like this this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2506">TS</a>]

00:41:49   is one of the reasons I like after hours [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2509">TS</a>]

00:41:50   with Griffin Dunne it's similarly like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2510">TS</a>]

00:41:53   series of ridiculous event someone has [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2513">TS</a>]

00:41:55   to like that movie it is well I I you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2515">TS</a>]

00:41:57   know back when with Griffin Dunne was a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2517">TS</a>]

00:41:58   movie star for the 90 minute runtime of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2518">TS</a>]

00:42:00   that movie and then that was again um I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2520">TS</a>]

00:42:02   think there is a genre of you know what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2522">TS</a>]

00:42:05   happens [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2525">TS</a>]

00:42:06   at 4am I'm crazy night man exactly right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2526">TS</a>]

00:42:10   well that's and that's what happens here [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2530">TS</a>]

00:42:11   and and i think i think the moment that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2531">TS</a>]

00:42:14   that it turned the corner for me is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2534">TS</a>]

00:42:16   there's that scene where they're they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2536">TS</a>]

00:42:18   gonna go in and rob the restaurant [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2538">TS</a>]

00:42:22   that's got the the the pinball machines [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2542">TS</a>]

00:42:25   yeah yeah this whole place is for fun [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2545">TS</a>]

00:42:27   and and they and and they know him they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2547">TS</a>]

00:42:31   know Kurt he's the golden boy he's there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2551">TS</a>]

00:42:33   the guy dr. scholarship yeah yeah fine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2553">TS</a>]

00:42:37   mousse someday and I think I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2557">TS</a>]

00:42:40   that's funny because it's like what's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2560">TS</a>]

00:42:42   gonna happen now and he and he you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2562">TS</a>]

00:42:44   he talks to them while the other guys [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2564">TS</a>]

00:42:46   steal the money from the pinball machine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2566">TS</a>]

00:42:47   and then they go and and then and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2567">TS</a>]

00:42:50   tie the chain to the car of a cop and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2570">TS</a>]

00:42:52   tear the cop car part in the any [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2572">TS</a>]

00:42:54   big-budget action sequence of the film [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2574">TS</a>]

00:42:57   which is one of them yes and what one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2577">TS</a>]

00:43:00   one of the three anyway there are others [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2580">TS</a>]

00:43:03   i like i like the welders there's a car [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2583">TS</a>]

00:43:06   race as a car race at the end there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2586">TS</a>]

00:43:08   the slap fight and that's about it we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2588">TS</a>]

00:43:12   haven't mentioned the the the the most [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2592">TS</a>]

00:43:14   compelling part of the Richard Dreyfuss [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2594">TS</a>]

00:43:17   storyline which is he sees Suzanne [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2597">TS</a>]

00:43:19   Somers yelling and is just and and she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2599">TS</a>]

00:43:25   and needs to find out who and his night [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2605">TS</a>]

00:43:29   is basically I need to find out who this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2609">TS</a>]

00:43:31   girl is because the game is cruising for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2611">TS</a>]

00:43:33   women and the ultimate winning of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2613">TS</a>]

00:43:35   game is cruising for the special woman [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2615">TS</a>]

00:43:37   who will cure everything the magic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2617">TS</a>]

00:43:38   blonde well I used compelling there were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2618">TS</a>]

00:43:42   air quotes I'm sorry those didn't okay [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2622">TS</a>]

00:43:44   good good over the transom but I thought [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2624">TS</a>]

00:43:47   I was gonna have to know life is called [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2627">TS</a>]

00:43:48   the movie seemed mostly in on that like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2628">TS</a>]

00:43:50   that it was saying look look at this guy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2630">TS</a>]

00:43:52   he's in such dire straits that yes for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2632">TS</a>]

00:43:54   anything to hang on to and he sees the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2634">TS</a>]

00:43:55   imaginary woman Chevy Chase ferrari [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2635">TS</a>]

00:43:57   Christie Brinkley style and this like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2637">TS</a>]

00:43:59   this is his lifeline and we we are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2639">TS</a>]

00:44:01   laughing at him and realizing this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2641">TS</a>]

00:44:03   not going to save him but by the end of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2643">TS</a>]

00:44:05   the movie he's looking longingly at the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2645">TS</a>]

00:44:07   plane window at a white car and I hope [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2647">TS</a>]

00:44:08   he's realizing that that was not the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2648">TS</a>]

00:44:11   wait but it's almost as if like I know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2651">TS</a>]

00:44:13   you're still out there pretty brown lady [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2653">TS</a>]

00:44:15   I'm flying wet I don't I don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2655">TS</a>]

00:44:18   understand it the movie was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2658">TS</a>]

00:44:19   the same page as me about the but the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2659">TS</a>]

00:44:21   futility of tying your hopes to nabbing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2661">TS</a>]

00:44:25   the just the right prey animal in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2665">TS</a>]

00:44:27   cruising as a solution to your life's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2667">TS</a>]

00:44:28   problems I was gonna say I think she's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2668">TS</a>]

00:44:30   imaginary oh yeah absolutely is Christie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2670">TS</a>]

00:44:33   Brinkley was real though right and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2673">TS</a>]

00:44:36   guess yes yes Griswold works in the land [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2676">TS</a>]

00:44:38   of reality um I think when he's my I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2678">TS</a>]

00:44:41   think when he's flying away and he sees [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2681">TS</a>]

00:44:43   her driving down the road that's one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2683">TS</a>]

00:44:46   those moments where he realizes that ok [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2686">TS</a>]

00:44:48   did the the town that I thought I grew [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2688">TS</a>]

00:44:50   up and in the life that I thought I had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2690">TS</a>]

00:44:52   there that's not entirely real either [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2692">TS</a>]

00:44:54   and that woman that fantasy of who she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2694">TS</a>]

00:44:56   has belongs to his fantasy of who he was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2696">TS</a>]

00:44:58   in that town and and I think that's what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2698">TS</a>]

00:45:01   that's supposed to symbolize is you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2701">TS</a>]

00:45:03   it's it's basically like one it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2703">TS</a>]

00:45:06   basically two steps before a bunch of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2706">TS</a>]

00:45:07   jet goes Jedi watching Darth Darth [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2707">TS</a>]

00:45:09   Vader's helmet burn with the evil ha no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2709">TS</a>]

00:45:11   no Lisa you you were telling me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2711">TS</a>]

00:45:13   originally they were gonna do like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2713">TS</a>]

00:45:14   thing in the opening where Chris at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2714">TS</a>]

00:45:16   Suzanne Somers like appears and so on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2716">TS</a>]

00:45:20   and and transparent so the idea is that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2720">TS</a>]

00:45:22   you see that she's always a phantom and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2722">TS</a>]

00:45:23   a hallucination realm dog that would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2723">TS</a>]

00:45:25   have been terrible than having to rather [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2725">TS</a>]

00:45:28   than having today I I feel like it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2728">TS</a>]

00:45:30   obvious from the movie both because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2730">TS</a>]

00:45:32   everybody has like a myth about her [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2732">TS</a>]

00:45:34   she's a kept woman she's a prostitute [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2734">TS</a>]

00:45:36   yeah I like my different stories about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2736">TS</a>]

00:45:38   her because it says like a small town [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2738">TS</a>]

00:45:39   like oh I know you're talking about no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2739">TS</a>]

00:45:41   no she's she's the wife of this old [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2741">TS</a>]

00:45:42   person oh she's a prostitute she's like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2742">TS</a>]

00:45:44   everyone knows who he's talking about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2744">TS</a>]

00:45:46   even though it's not yeah well they all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2746">TS</a>]

00:45:47   have this same fantasy yeah and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2747">TS</a>]

00:45:50   there's the phone call that happens [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2750">TS</a>]

00:45:51   where it's just incredibly vague and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2751">TS</a>]

00:45:53   what's really notable about that phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2753">TS</a>]

00:45:54   call is she doesn't say a word about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2754">TS</a>]

00:45:56   herself she doesn't mention her name she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2756">TS</a>]

00:45:58   doesn't say anything it's all she's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2758">TS</a>]

00:46:00   basically a mirror reflecting his desire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2760">TS</a>]

00:46:02   back at him and I think he finally gets [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2762">TS</a>]

00:46:05   that or he's like okay hey this is this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2765">TS</a>]

00:46:08   is clearly not going to work because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2768">TS</a>]

00:46:09   you're just echoing you failed the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2769">TS</a>]

00:46:11   Turing test some great so you're gonna [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2771">TS</a>]

00:46:14   said since the phone woke him from sleep [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2774">TS</a>]

00:46:15   he never actually woke up oh yes that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2775">TS</a>]

00:46:19   seems pretty clearly telegraphed at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2779">TS</a>]

00:46:21   least to me what I do like about his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2781">TS</a>]

00:46:23   quest and she is I think meant to be an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2783">TS</a>]

00:46:25   impossible dream and write what I do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2785">TS</a>]

00:46:28   like about his quest honestly the thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2788">TS</a>]

00:46:30   I like about it the most is it leads him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2790">TS</a>]

00:46:32   out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2792">TS</a>]

00:46:32   to the radio station and go and and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2792">TS</a>]

00:46:36   radio station so on the outskirts of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2796">TS</a>]

00:46:38   town and I've been I've been in that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2798">TS</a>]

00:46:41   radio station basically like I know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2801">TS</a>]

00:46:43   that's what it is in the valley like you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2803">TS</a>]

00:46:45   just go out of stretch of road and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2805">TS</a>]

00:46:46   there's a transmitter and there's and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2806">TS</a>]

00:46:48   and wolfman jack is there and wolfman [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2808">TS</a>]

00:46:50   jack this this movie spend a huge [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2810">TS</a>]

00:46:54   percentage of its budget on music like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2814">TS</a>]

00:46:56   $80,000 of the budget is music there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2816">TS</a>]

00:46:59   no score wisely the score is classic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2819">TS</a>]

00:47:02   hits from the 50s and early 60s it sits [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2822">TS</a>]

00:47:05   right up to 62 where it's set and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2825">TS</a>]

00:47:08   wolfman jack is the DJ and then he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2828">TS</a>]

00:47:11   appears at the end of the movie when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2831">TS</a>]

00:47:12   Richard Dreyfuss goes and talks to him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2832">TS</a>]

00:47:14   and he makes the request to out to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2834">TS</a>]

00:47:17   blonde in the t-bird and what I wanted [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2837">TS</a>]

00:47:20   to say is I love the I love the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2840">TS</a>]

00:47:22   soundtrack I love the way it's it's done [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2842">TS</a>]

00:47:25   where it's mostly ambient it's just like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2845">TS</a>]

00:47:28   the music is playing and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2848">TS</a>]

00:47:29   everybody's tuned to the same radio and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2849">TS</a>]

00:47:31   and it is there is nothing more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2851">TS</a>]

00:47:34   evocative of a hot summer night then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2854">TS</a>]

00:47:37   everybody driving around with their [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2857">TS</a>]

00:47:38   windows rolled down and the radio coming [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2858">TS</a>]

00:47:41   and especially if everybody's listening [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2861">TS</a>]

00:47:42   to the same radio station and it's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2862">TS</a>]

00:47:44   everywhere and then you add that it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2864">TS</a>]

00:47:46   the period music to set that tone it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2866">TS</a>]

00:47:49   brilliant it's my favorite thing about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2869">TS</a>]

00:47:50   this movie is and every so often the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2870">TS</a>]

00:47:52   lyrics match up to what's going on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2872">TS</a>]

00:47:54   on-screen yes I was about to say quite a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2874">TS</a>]

00:47:56   lot of the time it does because that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2876">TS</a>]

00:47:58   there's a lot of really good musical [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2878">TS</a>]

00:48:02   jokes at toad's except the music is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2882">TS</a>]

00:48:05   mixed kind of like a Scorsese movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2885">TS</a>]

00:48:06   though where it's like it's not afraid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2886">TS</a>]

00:48:08   to put the music out front sort of in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2888">TS</a>]

00:48:10   the mix where the music is actually more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2890">TS</a>]

00:48:12   dominant than the dialogue where it just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2892">TS</a>]

00:48:14   overwhelmed because that is that it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2894">TS</a>]

00:48:15   the point of the scene it's like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2895">TS</a>]

00:48:16   basically a music video and also there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2896">TS</a>]

00:48:18   are some lines of dialogue and disperse [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2898">TS</a>]

00:48:19   with it so again getting what you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2899">TS</a>]

00:48:21   saying Jason were like the music [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2901">TS</a>]

00:48:24   permeates and pervades everything to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2904">TS</a>]

00:48:26   point where the conversation you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2906">TS</a>]

00:48:27   having with the car realistically is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2907">TS</a>]

00:48:28   very often difficult to hear over the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2908">TS</a>]

00:48:30   sound of the music and all the other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2910">TS</a>]

00:48:31   things that are going on and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2911">TS</a>]

00:48:32   definitely got that feel I mean I don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2912">TS</a>]

00:48:35   know when one was mean streets was mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2915">TS</a>]

00:48:36   streets before this this was a 73 at the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2916">TS</a>]

00:48:40   same time actually yeah but anyway [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2920">TS</a>]

00:48:42   square sees would do it even more later [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2922">TS</a>]

00:48:44   of like I literally putting the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2924">TS</a>]

00:48:46   loud you know pop music soundtrack out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2926">TS</a>]

00:48:49   in front of everything else including a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2929">TS</a>]

00:48:51   dialogue which definitely changes the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2931">TS</a>]

00:48:53   feel of the movie and I mean and and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2933">TS</a>]

00:48:56   gives gives a feel for place in time in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2936">TS</a>]

00:48:58   a way that even just like the outfits in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2938">TS</a>]

00:49:00   the cars doesn't that's right i had to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2940">TS</a>]

00:49:02   look up the beach boys track because i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2942">TS</a>]

00:49:03   like surely that wasn't in 1962 and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2943">TS</a>]

00:49:05   was like yeah it absolutely was it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2945">TS</a>]

00:49:07   the song of the summer that year George [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2947">TS</a>]

00:49:09   Lucas knew I mean they this was a this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2949">TS</a>]

00:49:11   was and this was the trade-off right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2951">TS</a>]

00:49:12   we're not going to have a score but wit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2952">TS</a>]

00:49:14   but that the radio hits are going to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2954">TS</a>]

00:49:16   the score and it works so well it is so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2956">TS</a>]

00:49:20   good yeah I'm ambivalent about most of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2960">TS</a>]

00:49:22   the the Richard Dreyfuss storyline but I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2962">TS</a>]

00:49:25   do love that scene with Wolfman Jack [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2965">TS</a>]

00:49:26   because that that is the it's all a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2966">TS</a>]

00:49:29   facade kid yeah it's all have a popsicle [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2969">TS</a>]

00:49:32   chemical not know what wolfman jack [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2972">TS</a>]

00:49:34   looked like back then cuz I know what he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2974">TS</a>]

00:49:36   looks like when I was a kid you saw the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2976">TS</a>]

00:49:37   Hollywood Squares he had the Saturday [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2977">TS</a>]

00:49:39   morning cartoon yeah after American [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2979">TS</a>]

00:49:41   Graffiti he became you know he was big [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2981">TS</a>]

00:49:44   but you know in this scenario where he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2984">TS</a>]

00:49:47   has two Scooby squad saw did you guys [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2987">TS</a>]

00:49:49   follow DJ's was that only something cuz [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2989">TS</a>]

00:49:52   my girlfriends and I used to have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2992">TS</a>]

00:49:53   favorite djs because you know again when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2993">TS</a>]

00:49:55   you're a teenager music is the the pulse [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2995">TS</a>]

00:49:58   of every social interaction and my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/2998">TS</a>]

00:50:01   girlfriends and I could name all of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3001">TS</a>]

00:50:03   different djs in all the different [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3003">TS</a>]

00:50:04   stations and you know we didn't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3004">TS</a>]

00:50:08   what they look like though we just knew [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3008">TS</a>]

00:50:09   them by their voices we could even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3009">TS</a>]

00:50:10   rattle off whatever details they had or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3010">TS</a>]

00:50:12   whatever quirks and this was still back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3012">TS</a>]

00:50:14   when you could call the DJ and you have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3014">TS</a>]

00:50:16   a reasonable expectation of having to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3016">TS</a>]

00:50:17   pick up the phone and talk to you yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3017">TS</a>]

00:50:19   and so I think for these teenagers they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3019">TS</a>]

00:50:22   probably had this idea that Wolfman Jack [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3022">TS</a>]

00:50:23   was one thing and then Kurt sees that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3023">TS</a>]

00:50:25   he's actually just died in a Hawaiian [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3025">TS</a>]

00:50:27   shirt the guy an obstacle sure has to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3027">TS</a>]

00:50:30   talk to teenagers all night while eating [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3030">TS</a>]

00:50:32   melting popsicles and he realizes that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3032">TS</a>]

00:50:34   oh my god oh my god this is my life has [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3034">TS</a>]

00:50:38   been built on a lie my life isn't built [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3038">TS</a>]

00:50:40   on a lie I'm gonna get on that plane god [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3040">TS</a>]

00:50:43   damn it oh yeah because I tell you the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3043">TS</a>]

00:50:45   first time I saw a DJ and personal like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3045">TS</a>]

00:50:47   this guy sounds so much cooler when I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3047">TS</a>]

00:50:48   don't know what he looks like yeah yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3048">TS</a>]

00:50:51   the wolfman was a bit of an institution [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3051">TS</a>]

00:50:52   it interestingly he does mention at one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3052">TS</a>]

00:50:55   point he calls out the address of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3055">TS</a>]

00:50:57   little stall on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3057">TS</a>]

00:51:04   somewhere outside of Modesto yes I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3064">TS</a>]

00:51:06   thought it was interesting that they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3066">TS</a>]

00:51:07   left that in my understanding is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3067">TS</a>]

00:51:08   actually that the that a lot of his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3068">TS</a>]

00:51:11   interactions and including all the phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3071">TS</a>]

00:51:17   Wolfman Jack shows those were real not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3077">TS</a>]

00:51:20   although there's apparently one where he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3080">TS</a>]

00:51:22   where George Lucas and Joe well of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3082">TS</a>]

00:51:35   on to make little art films there's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3095">TS</a>]

00:51:37   fair amount of the of the later Lucas [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3097">TS</a>]

00:51:39   floating around in this primordial stew [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3099">TS</a>]

00:51:41   here like there's a there's a line very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3101">TS</a>]

00:51:43   early on where John is talking to Steve [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3103">TS</a>]

00:51:51   out of there even then Lucas couldn't be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3111">TS</a>]

00:51:54   bothered with the second take it's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3114">TS</a>]

00:55:47   the 70s and was directed by someone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3347">TS</a>]

00:55:48   other than George Lucas she would have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3348">TS</a>]

00:55:50   died in that thing like that would have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3350">TS</a>]

00:55:51   been really close if it would have been [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3351">TS</a>]

00:55:54   Martin Scorsese she would have been [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3354">TS</a>]

00:55:56   wearing a red dress like it's time her [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3356">TS</a>]

00:56:25   seconds later so yeah I mean I'm glad [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3385">TS</a>]

00:56:28   she didn't but it would have been even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3388">TS</a>]

00:56:30   more 70s movie and a very different [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3390">TS</a>]

00:56:32   movie if she had died in that car [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3392">TS</a>]

00:57:12   school kids Vietnam is happening what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3432">TS</a>]

00:57:15   you know what's going to happen and so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3435">TS</a>]

00:57:17   you kind of have to say yeah he went off [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3437">TS</a>]

00:57:18   and died in Vietnam and and and so I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3438">TS</a>]

00:57:22   feel like it almost requires that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3442">TS</a>]

00:57:25   address that and so there it is you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3445">TS</a>]

00:57:27   he didn't make it back and you know this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3447">TS</a>]

00:57:29   guy stayed in town sells insurance or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3449">TS</a>]

00:57:32   whatever and then this guy went to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3452">TS</a>]

00:57:34   Canada and as a writer and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3454">TS</a>]

00:57:35   III yeah yeah I wanted to say before we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3455">TS</a>]

00:57:39   move on that I did watch this movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3459">TS</a>]

00:57:42   thinking what would George Lucas have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3462">TS</a>]

00:57:46   been as a filmmaker if he hadn't made [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3466">TS</a>]

00:57:49   Star Wars or if he had or if Star Wars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3469">TS</a>]

00:57:52   had not succeeded because I feel like he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3472">TS</a>]

00:57:55   might have had a very interesting and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3475">TS</a>]

00:57:58   very different career trajectory based [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3478">TS</a>]

00:58:00   on this film because I think this is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3480">TS</a>]

00:58:03   really well made film it's got some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3483">TS</a>]

00:58:05   issues but I think it's really well-made [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3485">TS</a>]

00:58:06   and evocative and given the budget and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3486">TS</a>]

00:58:08   then you know and then he made Star Wars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3488">TS</a>]

00:58:10   which is a huge hit and is a great movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3490">TS</a>]

00:58:12   but I do i do wonder cuz and that's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3492">TS</a>]

00:58:14   shame of it is that you know that guy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3494">TS</a>]

00:58:16   never made another movie right after [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3496">TS</a>]

00:58:18   Star Wars he never he never got the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3498">TS</a>]

00:58:20   chance to make another movie because by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3500">TS</a>]

00:58:21   the time he was directing movies again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3501">TS</a>]

00:58:22   it wasn't the same guy it wasn't the guy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3502">TS</a>]

00:58:24   who made our American Graffiti it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3504">TS</a>]

00:58:26   the builder of an empire and it's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3506">TS</a>]

00:58:28   little bit it's a little bit of a shame [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3508">TS</a>]

00:58:30   i think because i would have been [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3510">TS</a>]

00:58:31   interested to see him take a more 70s [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3511">TS</a>]

00:58:35   cinema path instead of you know what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3515">TS</a>]

00:58:38   ended up happening which was that he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3518">TS</a>]

00:58:40   became star wars incorporated i would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3520">TS</a>]

00:58:42   have liked to have seen the modesto [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3522">TS</a>]

00:58:43   trilogy yeah of your of your 70s [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3523">TS</a>]

00:58:47   directors your Martin Scorsese's your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3527">TS</a>]

00:58:49   Francis Ford Coppola 'he's you can even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3529">TS</a>]

00:58:51   include brian de palma in that group and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3531">TS</a>]

00:58:54   Spielberg George Lucas's career path [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3534">TS</a>]

00:58:58   kind of became the least interesting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3538">TS</a>]

00:59:01   right of those in that like you say it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3541">TS</a>]

00:59:03   became George Lucas industry as words we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3543">TS</a>]

00:59:06   got to move some Kenner action figures [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3546">TS</a>]

00:59:08   guys oh and he obviously made a decision [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3548">TS</a>]

00:59:11   to lean into the business side to not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3551">TS</a>]

00:59:13   even direct the second and third films [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3553">TS</a>]

00:59:15   to do all of that he could have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3555">TS</a>]

00:59:17   potentially made a different decision [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3557">TS</a>]

00:59:20   love with the visual effects too because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3560">TS</a>]

00:59:22   it seems like a lot of his death was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3562">TS</a>]

00:59:23   driven by it doesn't look like the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3563">TS</a>]

00:59:25   pictures in my head and it became less [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3565">TS</a>]

00:59:27   about what is the story I'm telling him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3567">TS</a>]

00:59:29   more about how is the story being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3569">TS</a>]

00:59:31   presented visually it's like that dude [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3571">TS</a>]

00:59:33   in Boston who got so into the technology [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3573">TS</a>]

00:59:36   in the engineering that he dropped out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3576">TS</a>]

00:59:38   of the band to just do recording [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3578">TS</a>]

00:59:40   technology fault you know you know you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3580">TS</a>]

00:59:43   get some people who get sidetracked by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3583">TS</a>]

00:59:45   by it doesn't match what's in my head [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3585">TS</a>]

00:59:47   and they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3587">TS</a>]

00:59:49   they put there was a narrative thread [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3589">TS</a>]

00:59:50   because we can give George a lot of crap [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3590">TS</a>]

00:59:52   for what he did later in his career but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3592">TS</a>]

00:59:54   yes you know this is a good movie and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3594">TS</a>]

00:59:55   star wars is a really great movie and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3595">TS</a>]

00:59:57   and then it was so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3597">TS</a>]

00:59:57   and then it was so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3597">TS</a>]

01:00:00   successful that we never saw this young [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3600">TS</a>]

01:00:02   filmmaker make up what would the next [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3602">TS</a>]

01:00:04   one have been we'll we'll never know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3604">TS</a>]

01:00:05   arguably this is the movie where he was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3605">TS</a>]

01:00:07   most moderated by the influence of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3607">TS</a>]

01:00:09   others who were shoring up his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3609">TS</a>]

01:00:10   weaknesses you know I mean yes you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3610">TS</a>]

01:00:12   like so like this this is this is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3612">TS</a>]

01:00:14   rookie type of thing every when he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3614">TS</a>]

01:00:17   left completely on his own you get THX [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3617">TS</a>]

01:00:19   1138 or you know the prequels and in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3619">TS</a>]

01:00:22   between their varying degrees of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3622">TS</a>]

01:00:23   moderation and writing help and ability [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3623">TS</a>]

01:00:26   to say no to him that allowed the good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3626">TS</a>]

01:00:29   things I mean that's that's arguably [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3629">TS</a>]

01:00:30   what what a Hollywood production machine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3630">TS</a>]

01:00:32   is supposed to do it take talent and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3632">TS</a>]

01:00:34   allowed their good aspects that come [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3634">TS</a>]

01:00:35   through in the places where they lack [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3635">TS</a>]

01:00:37   fill those gaps I agree this is a movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3637">TS</a>]

01:00:39   that's that's put together and very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3639">TS</a>]

01:00:40   interestingly particularly as you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3640">TS</a>]

01:00:42   already called out Jason the way the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3642">TS</a>]

01:00:43   soundtrack works is very cool I also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3643">TS</a>]

01:00:46   want to call out the scene where Kurt is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3646">TS</a>]

01:00:48   cabling the police car and there's an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3648">TS</a>]

01:00:51   approaching train which he uses kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3651">TS</a>]

01:00:54   his building music it's almost like you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3654">TS</a>]

01:00:56   know his heart beating as he got caught [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3656">TS</a>]

01:00:58   and the and as just as he's about to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3658">TS</a>]

01:01:01   cable the car that the train skids to a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3661">TS</a>]

01:01:03   halt and you hear that brake squeal and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3663">TS</a>]

01:01:05   it goes very quiet and it's just a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3665">TS</a>]

01:01:07   beautifully shot wonderfully tense scene [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3667">TS</a>]

01:01:11   in the middle of this otherwise almost [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3671">TS</a>]

01:01:12   tension free movie and it's very cool [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3672">TS</a>]

01:01:15   and I I do tend to give Lucas a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3675">TS</a>]

01:01:17   crap but that's that is a sign of where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3677">TS</a>]

01:01:21   he had some definite genius this movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3681">TS</a>]

01:01:23   looks good too like no visual effects [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3683">TS</a>]

01:01:24   but you know that the change in quality [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3684">TS</a>]

01:01:27   of the light as the night progresses and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3687">TS</a>]

01:01:30   comes morning works beautifully and is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3690">TS</a>]

01:01:32   we've pretty well throughout the movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3692">TS</a>]

01:01:34   even though they're jumping around from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3694">TS</a>]

01:01:35   location to location the night scenes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3695">TS</a>]

01:01:36   with the streetlights and the cars and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3696">TS</a>]

01:01:39   shiny chrome yeah the setting is perfect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3699">TS</a>]

01:01:41   this setting is just straight-up perfect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3701">TS</a>]

01:01:43   i will say that i had not seen this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3703">TS</a>]

01:01:45   movie before although i'd seen bits and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3705">TS</a>]

01:01:48   pieces of it many many times over the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3708">TS</a>]

01:01:50   years is the first time i sat down and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3710">TS</a>]

01:01:51   watched it end to end and while I i I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3711">TS</a>]

01:01:55   glad I watched it and I enjoyed the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3715">TS</a>]

01:01:57   experience this is a slow movie it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3717">TS</a>]

01:02:02   deliberately paced yes it is but it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3722">TS</a>]

01:02:04   it's you know it's I know this this is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3724">TS</a>]

01:02:06   fond remembrance of a bygone time right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3726">TS</a>]

01:02:08   and it's it's it's lucas is a nostalgia [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3728">TS</a>]

01:02:11   trip and it's the nostalgia trip of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3731">TS</a>]

01:02:13   everybody who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3733">TS</a>]

01:02:13   grew up in that era and lived this but I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3733">TS</a>]

01:02:17   didn't and so the fact that we have to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3737">TS</a>]

01:02:20   linger on every moment of the sock hop [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3740">TS</a>]

01:02:22   or Kurt strolling endlessly down the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3742">TS</a>]

01:02:24   halls of the high school and playing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3744">TS</a>]

01:02:26   with the lockers and stuff it just gets [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3746">TS</a>]

01:02:28   it gets pretty tedious for me you didn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3748">TS</a>]

01:02:31   say yeah the overwhelming feeling of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3751">TS</a>]

01:02:32   heartbreak keeping you attached to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3752">TS</a>]

01:02:34   movie like I didn't I think Lisa did to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3754">TS</a>]

01:02:36   like just that just that the entire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3756">TS</a>]

01:02:38   movie like I was surprised by my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3758">TS</a>]

01:02:40   reaction too because I had seen it many [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3760">TS</a>]

01:02:41   many times in the past but not for many [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3761">TS</a>]

01:02:43   years and seeing it maybe I'm older and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3763">TS</a>]

01:02:44   and more mushy now but like just just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3764">TS</a>]

01:02:48   the heartbreak that pervades the movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3768">TS</a>]

01:02:50   because as an older person you know that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3770">TS</a>]

01:02:52   this is all you know yeah tell me turn [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3772">TS</a>]

01:02:54   it I I think it's a mistake to dismiss [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3774">TS</a>]

01:02:56   this totally as a nostalgia thing that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3776">TS</a>]

01:02:58   was a big thing in the 70s there was a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3778">TS</a>]

01:03:00   big let's make movies about the 1950s [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3780">TS</a>]

01:03:03   and early 1960s like this and grease and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3783">TS</a>]

01:03:07   animal house and but III think this one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3787">TS</a>]

01:03:10   is better than those because that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3790">TS</a>]

01:03:13   there's actually a timeless poignancy to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3793">TS</a>]

01:03:17   it about what you lose as you get older [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3797">TS</a>]

01:03:21   that that um Lucas briefly tapped into [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3801">TS</a>]

01:03:25   um yeah well it briefly is the thing I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3805">TS</a>]

01:03:28   for me that I appreciate no because the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3808">TS</a>]

01:03:30   that's touched upon that's definitely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3810">TS</a>]

01:03:32   there but it is couched in so much of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3812">TS</a>]

01:03:34   the you know oh it's we gotta throw in a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3814">TS</a>]

01:03:37   literally everything that happened in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3817">TS</a>]

01:03:39   the early 60s has to be compressed into [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3819">TS</a>]

01:03:41   this one night and there's just so much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3821">TS</a>]

01:03:43   of it it just completely dilutes the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3823">TS</a>]

01:03:45   poignancy of it for me and it's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3825">TS</a>]

01:03:47   helped by the fact that I find both uh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3827">TS</a>]

01:03:48   Steven Curt stories totally uninspiring [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3828">TS</a>]

01:05:01   come to to learn and they are sort of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3901">TS</a>]

01:05:04   just they are beginning to realize that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3904">TS</a>]

01:05:07   they are likely going to be left behind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3907">TS</a>]

01:05:10   by all that nevertheless our hero is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3910">TS</a>]

01:05:28   point where he actually begins speaking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3928">TS</a>]

01:06:00   in this movie for me was the opening [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3960">TS</a>]

01:06:01   moments when the title card comes up and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/3961">TS</a>]

01:08:09   Vespa he's very Italian and the best pop [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4089">TS</a>]

01:08:13   on the fishing boat that is just cringey [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4093">TS</a>]

01:08:15   ya know every every scene where he that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4095">TS</a>]

01:08:19   I have mixed feelings about that entire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4099">TS</a>]

01:08:22   plot line where he deludes this this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4102">TS</a>]

01:08:24   apparently dim young woman into [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4104">TS</a>]

01:08:27   believing that he's from some Italian [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4107">TS</a>]

01:08:29   fishing village because on the one hand [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4109">TS</a>]

01:08:31   there is a certain sweetness to it in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4111">TS</a>]

01:08:33   their interactions and on the other hand [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4113">TS</a>]

01:08:35   it's really freaking creepy it's very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4115">TS</a>]

01:08:37   sitcom and there's a lot of this movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4117">TS</a>]

01:08:39   that feels like it was pulled from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4119">TS</a>]

01:08:41   television in in the 1970s and perhaps [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4121">TS</a>]

01:08:45   not ironically it would become a sitcom [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4125">TS</a>]

01:08:47   indeed after the success of this man I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4127">TS</a>]

01:08:49   mean a lot of the humor feels like it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4129">TS</a>]

01:08:51   very very TV yeah there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4131">TS</a>]

01:08:53   scene where Daniel Stern gets his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4133">TS</a>]

01:08:55   fingers stuck in the bowling ball that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4135">TS</a>]

01:09:04   like this is something movie made in 79 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4144">TS</a>]

01:09:06   but when he's swinging that bowling ball [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4146">TS</a>]

01:10:43   certainly plausible in Indiana yeah in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4243">TS</a>]

01:10:45   in nicely explained it's like a squash [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4245">TS</a>]

01:10:47   you want some American food like french [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4247">TS</a>]

01:10:49   fries as the child of two indiana [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4249">TS</a>]

01:10:51   natives i can assure you this movie is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4251">TS</a>]

01:10:54   painfully accurate and they do not know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4254">TS</a>]

01:10:56   how to cook zucchini what do not know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4256">TS</a>]

01:10:58   what it is though they wouldn't know how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4258">TS</a>]

01:11:00   to cook it if you if Mario Batali showed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4260">TS</a>]

01:11:02   up in their house let's tell them it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4262">TS</a>]

01:11:04   summer squash maybe they'll get it I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4264">TS</a>]

01:11:06   don't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4266">TS</a>]

01:11:07   that's the rationalization I have for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4267">TS</a>]

01:11:08   Katherine believing his Italian accent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4268">TS</a>]

01:11:11   too wasn't she from the east coast [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4271">TS</a>]

01:11:12   though yeah that's a good point well I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4272">TS</a>]

01:11:13   don't know if she is that she's in a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4273">TS</a>]

01:11:15   waspy enclave of Connecticut and had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4275">TS</a>]

01:11:17   never met an Italian before that's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4277">TS</a>]

01:11:19   good point also entirely possible anyway [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4279">TS</a>]

01:11:21   that's the work we get for an 80s movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4281">TS</a>]

01:11:22   contrivance you know like that's again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4282">TS</a>]

01:11:25   the serenading the balcony fraternities [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4285">TS</a>]

01:11:28   and sororities college kids versus [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4288">TS</a>]

01:11:30   townies this moon was ahead of its time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4290">TS</a>]

01:11:31   in many ways indeed yeah yeah and again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4291">TS</a>]

01:11:34   it's one of those movies that kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4294">TS</a>]

01:11:35   defies plot recaps the plot recap ER [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4295">TS</a>]

01:11:49   their own ways really they all fail in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4309">TS</a>]

01:11:51   their own way Dennis Quaid tries to race [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4311">TS</a>]

01:12:32   can't help but react yeah that's exactly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4352">TS</a>]

01:12:33   right but what eventually happens is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4353">TS</a>]

01:12:36   that the president of Indiana University [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4356">TS</a>]

01:12:39   actually played by the president of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4359">TS</a>]

01:12:41   Indiana University at the time really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4361">TS</a>]

01:12:54   team of townies in the little 500 which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4374">TS</a>]

01:12:58   is a a bike race that they actually have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4378">TS</a>]

01:13:00   at Indiana University where Noah you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4380">TS</a>]

01:13:03   right around 44 uh however many laps and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4383">TS</a>]

01:13:08   you hurried off and the cutters are all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4388">TS</a>]

01:13:11   this is great because we've got a guy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4391">TS</a>]

01:13:13   who's really good at riding the bicycle [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4393">TS</a>]

01:13:16   yeah you know I'm willing to accept [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4396">TS</a>]

01:13:18   almost everything that happens [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4398">TS</a>]

01:13:20   movie but when the punishment for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4400">TS</a>]

01:13:22   starting a fight in the student union is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4402">TS</a>]

01:13:24   that they're going to let the Townies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4404">TS</a>]

01:13:26   into a bicycle race Wow well it seems [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4406">TS</a>]

01:13:30   cooler that's when you have to have a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4410">TS</a>]

01:13:31   car wash to stop the real estate [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4411">TS</a>]

01:13:33   developers from taking up a couple it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4413">TS</a>]

01:13:35   an 80s movies on Orthodox but I'll allow [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4415">TS</a>]

01:13:37   it what a coincidence it turns out that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4417">TS</a>]

01:13:39   Ellis is a big cycling enthusiasts to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4419">TS</a>]

01:13:41   what he's on the team he's a young man [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4421">TS</a>]

01:13:43   on campus he does every bicycles at dawn [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4423">TS</a>]

01:13:45   first thing I does not this but they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4425">TS</a>]

01:13:47   not good enough yeah that's a great line [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4427">TS</a>]

01:13:49   they're totally encapsulates the whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4429">TS</a>]

01:13:50   sir they're not good enough and I should [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4430">TS</a>]

01:13:53   be in a movie what am i doing in this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4433">TS</a>]

01:13:55   movie I'm a villain I'm snooty so the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4435">TS</a>]

01:13:59   the the race as you mentioned the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4439">TS</a>]

01:14:03   little 500 that is the climax of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4443">TS</a>]

01:14:05   movie uh what one of the things that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4445">TS</a>]

01:14:08   noticed at the end that I thought was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4448">TS</a>]

01:14:09   kind of charming is that it is mostly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4449">TS</a>]

01:14:13   just wide shots of bicycles racing yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4453">TS</a>]

01:14:16   one continuous cut for the last lap and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4456">TS</a>]

01:14:19   a half it's like God just let's all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4459">TS</a>]

01:14:20   watch the race together they're not like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4460">TS</a>]

01:14:22   it there's no cameras on the bike a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4462">TS</a>]

01:14:24   modern movie would have liked the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4464">TS</a>]

01:14:25   close-ups of like various teams doing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4465">TS</a>]

01:14:27   various things and it's like no you get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4467">TS</a>]

01:14:29   you get occasional moments of detail but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4469">TS</a>]

01:14:31   it's not really about the race and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4471">TS</a>]

01:14:32   you just go back to the shot of like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4472">TS</a>]

01:14:34   here's everybody racing I will say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4474">TS</a>]

01:14:36   though that's counter pointed with the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4476">TS</a>]

01:14:38   announcer who we hear in the background [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4478">TS</a>]

01:14:39   explaining what's going on he is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4479">TS</a>]

01:14:41   strangely specific as if he is actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4481">TS</a>]

01:14:44   just the narrator of the film it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4484">TS</a>]

01:14:46   that's the part that struck me is that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4486">TS</a>]

01:14:48   the move the video is like the pictures [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4488">TS</a>]

01:14:51   are very generic and like let's watch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4491">TS</a>]

01:14:52   this together but then the announcer is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4492">TS</a>]

01:14:54   over compensating and literally [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4494">TS</a>]

01:14:56   narrating the movie for us when it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4496">TS</a>]

01:14:57   shock and surprise you to know that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4497">TS</a>]

01:14:59   announcer is the guy whom this is all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4499">TS</a>]

01:15:00   based on nothing would surprise me about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4500">TS</a>]

01:15:02   this movie at this yeah well it is it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4502">TS</a>]

01:15:04   it's it's the guy that is the dude so I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4504">TS</a>]

01:15:08   thought that worked pretty well because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4508">TS</a>]

01:15:09   they have the crowd noise up over the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4509">TS</a>]

01:15:11   announcer so you can barely hear the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4511">TS</a>]

01:15:13   announcer because like if you were there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4513">TS</a>]

01:15:14   you'd mostly just hear the hair out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4514">TS</a>]

01:15:15   screaming and I think that that scene at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4515">TS</a>]

01:15:16   the end where they follow them they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4516">TS</a>]

01:15:18   follow just the promo distant shot up in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4518">TS</a>]

01:15:20   the stands of the bikes going around the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4520">TS</a>]

01:15:21   track once and then twice for that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4521">TS</a>]

01:15:23   know the white flag and then the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4523">TS</a>]

01:15:24   checkered flag it there's no cutaways [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4524">TS</a>]

01:15:25   yet scrotum and all you hear is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4525">TS</a>]

01:15:27   crowd and you can barely hear the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4527">TS</a>]

01:15:29   announcer kind of saying his announcing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4529">TS</a>]

01:15:31   thing and his boar [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4531">TS</a>]

01:15:32   announcer voice but you're not really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4532">TS</a>]

01:15:34   paying attention in the crowd is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4534">TS</a>]

01:15:35   screaming that's that's a plus it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4535">TS</a>]

01:15:37   really your sports excitement that's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4537">TS</a>]

01:15:39   point at which i thought to myself [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4539">TS</a>]

01:15:40   you've done the impossible movie you've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4540">TS</a>]

01:15:43   made me give a crap about the results of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4543">TS</a>]

01:15:45   a bicycle arias well wouldn't with no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4545">TS</a>]

01:15:48   stakes it's not like if you win this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4548">TS</a>]

01:15:49   race you get a scholarship or something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4549">TS</a>]

01:15:51   no no it's just the soul of the cutters [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4551">TS</a>]

01:15:53   that's at stake John come on yeah I know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4553">TS</a>]

01:16:21   guys and let's keep it up at the chins [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4581">TS</a>]

01:16:23   on it is pretty well established by the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4583">TS</a>]

01:16:25   rest of the movie that he is actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4585">TS</a>]

01:16:26   yeah well established in the movie that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4586">TS</a>]

01:16:28   he is a very good cyclist the only time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4588">TS</a>]

01:16:30   that he fails is when he's racing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4590">TS</a>]

01:16:33   against a professional Italian team [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4593">TS</a>]

01:16:35   Amanda and they're jerks Rodney's and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4595">TS</a>]

01:16:38   they'd has so many Italians do John they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4598">TS</a>]

01:16:41   they cheat him after flipping him off [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4601">TS</a>]

01:16:47   they do him dirty up and salt him and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4607">TS</a>]

01:16:50   then then yeah they stick something in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4610">TS</a>]

01:16:53   his folks so it's like one of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4613">TS</a>]

01:16:54   greatest father-son scenes in that movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4614">TS</a>]

01:16:56   though when young when he breaks down [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4616">TS</a>]

01:16:58   and begins to weep oh yes he says daddy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4618">TS</a>]

01:17:02   and you see Paul Dooley look panicked [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4622">TS</a>]

01:17:04   for a moment before finally hugging his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4624">TS</a>]

01:17:06   son yep he's awkwardly trying to figure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4626">TS</a>]

01:17:08   out what happens he looks down at his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4628">TS</a>]

01:17:09   wife and sees that she's got tears in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4629">TS</a>]

01:17:11   his eyes he's like well what are you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4631">TS</a>]

01:17:12   doing what's happening I've lost legal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4632">TS</a>]

01:17:16   orders her to do something this huh so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4636">TS</a>]

01:17:19   to go back to the race for a second my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4639">TS</a>]

01:17:21   point though is that is that since dave [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4641">TS</a>]

01:17:23   is the star of the of the group in terms [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4643">TS</a>]

01:17:25   of being the start of the movie but also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4645">TS</a>]

01:17:27   the start by Sickler what we get is just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4647">TS</a>]

01:17:29   enough drama to show the state of mind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4649">TS</a>]

01:17:32   of the other characters so he gets hurt [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4652">TS</a>]

01:17:35   and they have to replace him and so we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4655">TS</a>]

01:17:39   get uh you know dennis quaid doesn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4659">TS</a>]

01:17:42   want to do it but daniel stern game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4662">TS</a>]

01:17:45   meffert in Jackie Earle Haley doesn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4665">TS</a>]

01:17:47   game effort and then finally Dennis [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4667">TS</a>]

01:17:49   Quaid sort of like he has his moment [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4669">TS</a>]

01:17:51   where he kind of turns around and says [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4671">TS</a>]

01:17:52   I'm going to do this and then of course [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4672">TS</a>]

01:17:54   Dave is able to re-enter the guy the guy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4674">TS</a>]

01:17:56   goes by from the frat and says nice try [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4676">TS</a>]

01:17:58   kid and that pisses him off Yeah right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4678">TS</a>]

01:18:00   it's on the bike and takes so they get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4680">TS</a>]

01:18:01   just enough participation in the race [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4681">TS</a>]

01:18:03   for their character moments and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4683">TS</a>]

01:18:05   dave gets back on the bike and wins the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4685">TS</a>]

01:18:06   race and that's yes perfect they each [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4686">TS</a>]

01:18:08   get their little chance at at victory [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4688">TS</a>]

01:18:10   little chance at redemption I was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4690">TS</a>]

01:18:12   fantastic and it works out like it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4692">TS</a>]

01:18:15   fairly you know for for a movie of this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4695">TS</a>]

01:18:17   kind realistic about mike is fit like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4697">TS</a>]

01:18:19   he's not a bicycle rider but he only has [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4699">TS</a>]

01:18:21   to do one or two fast light and he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4701">TS</a>]

01:18:22   pissed off and so he you know he does [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4702">TS</a>]

01:18:24   keep them in it like the constant [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4704">TS</a>]

01:18:26   announcing of their position and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4706">TS</a>]

01:18:27   trades and everything make you believe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4707">TS</a>]

01:18:29   that they they wouldn't have been [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4709">TS</a>]

01:18:31   completely out of contention yes yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4711">TS</a>]

01:18:33   you right in a sense that Daniel Stern [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4713">TS</a>]

01:18:35   probably would be a train wreck on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4715">TS</a>]

01:18:36   bike and it turns out that he is but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4716">TS</a>]

01:18:38   he's just good enough to keep in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4718">TS</a>]

01:18:40   pack somewhere in the head and Jackie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4720">TS</a>]

01:18:42   Earle Haley fall asleep okay can't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4722">TS</a>]

01:18:45   really possible lead oh it's hysterical [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4725">TS</a>]

01:18:47   when he's on the bike to and he can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4727">TS</a>]

01:18:48   barely reach the pedals his little legs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4728">TS</a>]

01:18:50   can't keep up but he gives a game effort [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4730">TS</a>]

01:18:52   every one of them puts in their little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4732">TS</a>]

01:18:55   there a little bit and they get their [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4735">TS</a>]

01:18:56   little a little victory so so to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4736">TS</a>]

01:18:58   characterize this movie because we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4738">TS</a>]

01:19:00   always talked about it as an age movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4740">TS</a>]

01:19:01   this is not really but when I think of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4741">TS</a>]

01:19:03   this movie I think about but watching it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4743">TS</a>]

01:19:04   again for the umpteenth time occurred to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4744">TS</a>]

01:19:06   me that this is a movie in the grand [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4746">TS</a>]

01:19:09   tradition of 80s movies they glorified a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4749">TS</a>]

01:19:11   single sport there's movies about BMX [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4751">TS</a>]

01:19:14   riding movies about you know swimming [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4754">TS</a>]

01:19:17   diving churning like you just ricotta [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4757">TS</a>]

01:19:20   jacana whatever you just pick us pick a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4760">TS</a>]

01:19:24   sport in the 80s you can make an entire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4764">TS</a>]

01:19:26   movie and the point of that movie was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4766">TS</a>]

01:19:27   like it's a soccer movie it's a football [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4767">TS</a>]

01:19:29   movie and the whole point of the movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4769">TS</a>]

01:19:31   was glorifying sport that's not the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4771">TS</a>]

01:19:32   whole point of this move but this movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4772">TS</a>]

01:19:33   hits all those notes particularly when I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4773">TS</a>]

01:19:35   was a kid the heart of this movie was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4775">TS</a>]

01:19:36   him riding his bike behind the truck [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4776">TS</a>]

01:19:38   which is not the most important part of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4778">TS</a>]

01:19:39   this movie but it was like look at this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4779">TS</a>]

01:19:41   cool thing that they're doing in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4781">TS</a>]

01:19:42   sport that you previously didn't care [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4782">TS</a>]

01:19:44   about but suddenly it seems really cool [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4784">TS</a>]

01:19:46   and I don't all of my friends wanted to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4786">TS</a>]

01:19:48   ride behind a truck to see how fast you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4788">TS</a>]

01:19:49   can go on 10-speed bike oh I love this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4789">TS</a>]

01:19:51   by the way Phil technically gymkata is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4791">TS</a>]

01:19:53   celebration of both gymnastics and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4793">TS</a>]

01:19:55   martial arts [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4795">TS</a>]

01:19:56   haha let's be accurate here you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4796">TS</a>]

01:19:59   it's you say that this is a focus on on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4799">TS</a>]

01:20:01   bicycling and yet we don't have an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4801">TS</a>]

01:20:03   actual bike race until an hour and one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4803">TS</a>]

01:20:06   minute into the movie well it was the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4806">TS</a>]

01:20:08   whole training thing like the idea that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4808">TS</a>]

01:20:09   he is dedicating his life to this that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4809">TS</a>]

01:20:11   the tennspeed bikes are a cool thing yes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4811">TS</a>]

01:20:13   but I mean it's not about the biking and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4813">TS</a>]

01:20:15   that he can you can use to pick up girls [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4815">TS</a>]

01:20:16   because he can catch up to them even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4816">TS</a>]

01:20:17   though they're on a motorized scooter he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4817">TS</a>]

01:20:19   can bring back her notebook and he you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4819">TS</a>]

01:20:21   know he's training out in the rain on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4821">TS</a>]

01:20:23   the little the you know the the trainer [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4823">TS</a>]

01:20:25   wheelie thingy and he's Brydon behind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4825">TS</a>]

01:20:27   the truck and he races with the Italians [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4827">TS</a>]

01:20:29   and it's that again like this is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4829">TS</a>]

01:20:31   movie so much more than that but it fits [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4831">TS</a>]

01:20:32   neatly right into that slot because I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4832">TS</a>]

01:20:34   trying to think of another what is it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4834">TS</a>]

01:20:36   what is another 80s bike racing movie I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4836">TS</a>]

01:20:38   mean you've got you've got rad for BMS [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4838">TS</a>]

01:20:56   it any shoes me about them and bike [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4856">TS</a>]

01:20:58   messaging is life this movie is not a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4858">TS</a>]

01:21:00   movie about a used car salesman ship [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4860">TS</a>]

01:21:02   this is a different movie about making [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4862">TS</a>]

01:21:03   that cool yeah so yeah the things I want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4863">TS</a>]

01:21:06   the things I love about this movie um I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4866">TS</a>]

01:21:08   love the fact that you can watch it as a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4868">TS</a>]

01:21:10   young man as I did and be all yeah young [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4870">TS</a>]

01:21:14   man you've you've capsule youyou've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4874">TS</a>]

01:21:16   encapsulated my feelings about life or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4876">TS</a>]

01:21:18   you can watch it now as an old man as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4878">TS</a>]

01:21:20   I'd rico that that Paul Dooley character [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4880">TS</a>]

01:21:23   really resonates me um love that love [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4883">TS</a>]

01:21:27   the Paul Dooley Dennis Christopher [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4887">TS</a>]

01:21:29   relationship in this movie um okay what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4889">TS</a>]

01:21:35   I so here's my here's my thing I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4895">TS</a>]

01:21:37   the pole the the dad father-son [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4897">TS</a>]

01:21:39   relationship ends up being great but at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4899">TS</a>]

01:21:42   the beginning when he's all like oh it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4902">TS</a>]

01:21:44   Italian oh I don't know and all that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4904">TS</a>]

01:21:47   feel like I I don't like him and I feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4907">TS</a>]

01:21:50   like he's a kind of a ridiculous [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4910">TS</a>]

01:21:51   caricature at that point so okay I takes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4911">TS</a>]

01:21:54   me awhile to get and to get to get to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4914">TS</a>]

01:21:58   understand him he's got the whole Hill [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4918">TS</a>]

01:21:59   thumb is diploma at me thing which seems [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4919">TS</a>]

01:22:01   and so I mean again do I think that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4921">TS</a>]

01:22:05   there are people who are reluctant to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4925">TS</a>]

01:22:08   support their children in higher [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4928">TS</a>]

01:22:09   education because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4929">TS</a>]

01:22:10   as they are seeing them go further than [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4930">TS</a>]

01:22:14   them even though they should be proud of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4934">TS</a>]

01:22:15   them yes there are those people the way [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4935">TS</a>]

01:22:17   he does it is so on-the-nose and so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4937">TS</a>]

01:22:19   broad that I don't like it it's only [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4939">TS</a>]

01:22:21   when he finally acts like a human being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4941">TS</a>]

01:22:24   in the last part of the movie that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4944">TS</a>]

01:22:26   appreciate that relationship he's not a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4946">TS</a>]

01:22:27   human being in the first part he's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4947">TS</a>]

01:22:29   a caricature well in his defense of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4949">TS</a>]

01:22:31   Italian stuff is incredibly irritating I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4951">TS</a>]

01:22:34   can kind of series coming through but he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4954">TS</a>]

01:22:36   doesn't respond like a human being to it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4956">TS</a>]

01:22:38   he's just as a dummy like response [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4958">TS</a>]

01:22:40   dynamic in the house is that he makes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4960">TS</a>]

01:22:42   these pronouncements and that his wife [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4962">TS</a>]

01:22:43   moderates and everyone agrees to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4963">TS</a>]

01:22:45   basically ignore his ranting and ravings [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4965">TS</a>]

01:22:47   because this is the dynamic in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4967">TS</a>]

01:22:48   family like no one is taking him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4968">TS</a>]

01:22:49   seriously and the Sun is not being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4969">TS</a>]

01:22:51   crushed by those things the Sun is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4971">TS</a>]

01:22:52   crushed instead later when he's in his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4972">TS</a>]

01:22:54   bedroom and hears him through the wall [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4974">TS</a>]

01:22:55   when he's not when they thinks he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4975">TS</a>]

01:22:57   speaking you know privately or he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4977">TS</a>]

01:22:58   actually angry about it but but yeah I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4978">TS</a>]

01:23:00   think that's part of the sale here is it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4980">TS</a>]

01:23:01   he's not a good dad especially in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4981">TS</a>]

01:23:03   beginning and he's his own frustrations [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4983">TS</a>]

01:23:05   are coming and my note says dad sucks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4985">TS</a>]

01:23:07   that's oh there's so much else though [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4987">TS</a>]

01:23:10   that's goofy and caricature in this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4990">TS</a>]

01:23:13   movie that to me it just kind of blended [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4993">TS</a>]

01:23:14   in I mean the whole his whole Italian [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4994">TS</a>]

01:23:16   thing is way over the top I mean you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/4996">TS</a>]

01:23:20   know obviously you've got the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5000">TS</a>]

01:23:20   ridiculously 80s villain performance [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5000">TS</a>]

01:23:23   from ballast and I mean everything is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5003">TS</a>]

01:23:25   just kind of a little off kilter and a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5005">TS</a>]

01:23:28   bit more I feel like this movie is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5008">TS</a>]

01:23:30   spiritual predecessor to a Christmas [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5010">TS</a>]

01:23:32   store where this is kind of sense of and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5012">TS</a>]

01:23:34   it will take place in Indiana and they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5014">TS</a>]

01:23:36   both take place around a dyspeptic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5016">TS</a>]

01:23:37   father and a moderating mother and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5017">TS</a>]

01:23:39   idea is that your life becomes imbued [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5019">TS</a>]

01:23:42   with as much drama as you care to put [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5022">TS</a>]

01:23:44   into it in half of the time you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5024">TS</a>]

01:23:45   living inside your own head they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5025">TS</a>]

01:23:47   basically the same movie let me just say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5027">TS</a>]

01:23:50   as the son of a caricature dyspeptic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5030">TS</a>]

01:23:53   father from Indiana um nothing painfully [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5033">TS</a>]

01:23:56   on the girls giving you dodge those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5036">TS</a>]

01:23:58   jeans huh parts of this movie really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5038">TS</a>]

01:24:01   resonate for for our fill so all right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5041">TS</a>]

01:24:05   yeah let's just say did why are we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5045">TS</a>]

01:24:13   in the movie yep so yeah it works for me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5053">TS</a>]

01:24:17   okay oh my god no I I love that I love [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5057">TS</a>]

01:24:19   the scene where barbara barry puts the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5059">TS</a>]

01:24:21   moves on offensive side and with the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5061">TS</a>]

01:24:23   ha that is he puts out the candle with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5063">TS</a>]

01:24:28   bravado just move that's his finishing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5068">TS</a>]

01:24:31   move the bit where he sensuously pulls [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5071">TS</a>]

01:24:33   his pocket protector out to the Italian [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5073">TS</a>]

01:24:35   operas yes daringly money and I do I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5075">TS</a>]

01:24:39   actually like the scene where he goes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5079">TS</a>]

01:24:41   back to the quarry to we're worried [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5081">TS</a>]

01:24:43   where he worked as a young man those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5083">TS</a>]

01:24:45   glory days a tu correo sure sure yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5085">TS</a>]

01:24:47   I'm gonna drive a few wedges attend to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5087">TS</a>]

01:24:49   realizes I cannot do that anymore I did [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5089">TS</a>]

01:24:53   it is all all past me but um the other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5093">TS</a>]

01:24:56   thing that I really enjoy about breaking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5096">TS</a>]

01:24:59   away is the fact that it's directed by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5099">TS</a>]

01:25:02   an Englishman um Peter yay to his other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5102">TS</a>]

01:25:07   big movies are bullet one of my favorite [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5107">TS</a>]

01:25:10   cop movies by the way and possibly a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5110">TS</a>]

01:25:12   future old movie love entry he did hot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5112">TS</a>]

01:25:15   rock which is a really good k / movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5115">TS</a>]

01:25:17   and um he later on he would do the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5117">TS</a>]

01:25:21   dresser which is a nice character study [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5121">TS</a>]

01:25:23   and it just it's always astounded me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5123">TS</a>]

01:25:27   that this guy who did not grow up in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5127">TS</a>]

01:25:30   America really managed to tap into this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5130">TS</a>]

01:25:33   little slice of American middle America [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5133">TS</a>]

01:25:36   Americana in perhaps a cliched way as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5136">TS</a>]

01:25:40   some of you think but really it strut it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5140">TS</a>]

01:25:44   really has an authentic feel to me again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5144">TS</a>]

01:25:46   as someone who well I didn't grow up in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5146">TS</a>]

01:25:50   the Midwest I have parents from the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5150">TS</a>]

01:25:52   Midwest and they're both eerie indiana [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5152">TS</a>]

01:25:53   very indiana and this really resonates [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5153">TS</a>]

01:25:57   with me i can't tell you enough how much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5157">TS</a>]

01:26:00   this movie feels like I'm watching a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5160">TS</a>]

01:26:03   family movie being shot trust an English [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5163">TS</a>]

01:26:07   man to amplify the class issues though [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5167">TS</a>]

01:26:09   because that's one of the might one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5169">TS</a>]

01:26:11   my favorite scenes in this movie is so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5171">TS</a>]

01:26:13   when we're Paul Dooley's character talks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5173">TS</a>]

01:26:15   about you know he takes great pride in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5175">TS</a>]

01:26:17   having mind that Corey and having built [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5177">TS</a>]

01:26:19   at university but then once he built it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5179">TS</a>]

01:26:22   it was made really evident to him that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5182">TS</a>]

01:26:23   you're going to billys were to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5183">TS</a>]

01:26:26   buildings were too good for us yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5186">TS</a>]

01:26:27   you're good so it but you're not going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5187">TS</a>]

01:26:28   to I love that scene and I feel like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5188">TS</a>]

01:26:31   that scene needed somebody who's outside [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5191">TS</a>]

01:26:34   of America and connection say yeah there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5194">TS</a>]

01:26:36   is a class [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5196">TS</a>]

01:26:37   him in the US and here it is because I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5197">TS</a>]

01:26:38   don't know if I don't know if an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5198">TS</a>]

01:26:40   American could have approached it with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5200">TS</a>]

01:26:41   the same clarity and vigor that he did [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5201">TS</a>]

01:26:44   well eighties movies love doing that to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5204">TS</a>]

01:26:46   the rich kids versus the poor kid so it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5206">TS</a>]

01:26:47   was a lot of movies in the 80s [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5207">TS</a>]

01:26:49   especially young people movies were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5209">TS</a>]

01:26:51   about class and about you know the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5211">TS</a>]

01:26:53   preppies versus the you know the Slavs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5213">TS</a>]

01:26:56   versus the snobs uh-huh and it most of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5216">TS</a>]

01:26:59   those movies we're trying to make you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5219">TS</a>]

01:27:00   reckon you know identify with the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5220">TS</a>]

01:27:02   disaffected people because they were the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5222">TS</a>]

01:27:03   majority you weren't really uh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5223">TS</a>]

01:27:04   identifying with the preppies unless [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5224">TS</a>]

01:27:06   except for I guess class no one was the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5226">TS</a>]

01:27:09   opposite but yes we makes movies it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5229">TS</a>]

01:27:12   not preppies it's feel nerds yeah yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5232">TS</a>]

01:27:14   thus movie hits me very much in the same [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5234">TS</a>]

01:27:16   place as its contemporary the bad news [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5236">TS</a>]

01:27:19   bears hits me in terms of the way it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5239">TS</a>]

01:27:21   filmed and the way it is very true to a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5241">TS</a>]

01:27:25   certain part of the country in the 1970s [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5245">TS</a>]

01:27:28   yeah the the the good those guys with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5248">TS</a>]

01:27:32   blue jeans and no shirts swimming around [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5252">TS</a>]

01:27:34   in a quarry is that could not be more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5254">TS</a>]

01:27:37   70s yeah it's fantastic I mean it really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5257">TS</a>]

01:27:40   puts you in the place and it does it in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5260">TS</a>]

01:27:43   an interestingly different more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5263">TS</a>]

01:27:45   Midwestern way and obviously bad news [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5265">TS</a>]

01:27:47   bears is a Southern California and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5267">TS</a>]

01:27:49   feels very different in that respect but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5269">TS</a>]

01:27:51   it also it just feels very very real and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5271">TS</a>]

01:27:53   gritty in a way yeah this has the 70s in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5273">TS</a>]

01:27:56   it like with the with the water racing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5276">TS</a>]

01:27:58   again could could be in any 80s movies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5278">TS</a>]

01:28:00   you know what wouldn't be in the 80 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5280">TS</a>]

01:28:01   movies him hitting his head and coming [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5281">TS</a>]

01:28:03   back bloodied and playing that not for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5283">TS</a>]

01:28:06   laughs but for a serious moment so his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5286">TS</a>]

01:28:08   friends can jump in and save him yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5288">TS</a>]

01:28:09   that's 70's movie really makes him fail [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5289">TS</a>]

01:28:12   comically and may it turns out into a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5292">TS</a>]

01:28:14   joke and you know what when I was a kid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5294">TS</a>]

01:28:16   watching this is another one of these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5296">TS</a>]

01:28:17   movies that I remember watching and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5297">TS</a>]

01:28:19   realizing there was something different [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5299">TS</a>]

01:28:21   or special about this movie as compared [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5301">TS</a>]

01:28:23   to the other movies that I was used to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5303">TS</a>]

01:28:24   seeing not because it was like a rated r [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5304">TS</a>]

01:28:26   movie that I shouldn't have been [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5306">TS</a>]

01:28:27   watching or something but because it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5307">TS</a>]

01:28:29   took itself seriously and was willing to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5309">TS</a>]

01:28:31   show what I thought as a kid where these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5311">TS</a>]

01:28:33   you know deeper truth about life that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5313">TS</a>]

01:28:35   other movies that adults won't show you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5315">TS</a>]

01:28:37   like the people behaving badly or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5317">TS</a>]

01:28:40   feeling badly and doing things that are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5320">TS</a>]

01:28:43   not a durable and making mistakes and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5323">TS</a>]

01:28:45   failure and they're being consequences [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5325">TS</a>]

01:28:47   mixed in with all the rest of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5327">TS</a>]

01:28:49   schlock [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5329">TS</a>]

01:28:49   you know that would come to be standard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5329">TS</a>]

01:28:51   in eighties movies but that that really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5331">TS</a>]

01:28:53   spoke to me as a kid that like I took [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5333">TS</a>]

01:28:55   this movie much more seriously than all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5335">TS</a>]

01:28:56   the movies despite all the fun things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5336">TS</a>]

01:28:58   that were there to entertain me that it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5338">TS</a>]

01:29:00   took its character seriously and that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5340">TS</a>]

01:29:02   there was actual real emotion in it and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5342">TS</a>]

01:29:04   you know of course I'm identifying with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5344">TS</a>]

01:29:05   the disaffected kids and hanging out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5345">TS</a>]

01:29:07   with each other and feeling like losers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5347">TS</a>]

01:29:08   even though you know I felt like it even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5348">TS</a>]

01:29:11   though I knew I was going to go to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5351">TS</a>]

01:29:12   college somehow i watch this movie and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5352">TS</a>]

01:29:14   identify with the people who are never [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5354">TS</a>]

01:29:15   going to go to college and till the end [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5355">TS</a>]

01:29:17   and maybe it's that sensibility or maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5357">TS</a>]

01:29:19   it's just the sort of gritty seventies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5359">TS</a>]

01:29:21   ish pneus of it but I kept expecting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5361">TS</a>]

01:29:23   some sort of tragic event to occur yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5363">TS</a>]

01:29:26   like yeah yeah kind much kind of had a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5366">TS</a>]

01:29:28   target on his back for a lot yeah yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5368">TS</a>]

01:29:30   Dennis Quaid disappears into the fridge [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5370">TS</a>]

01:29:33   I'm like oh my God he's gonna drown is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5373">TS</a>]

01:29:35   really early in the movie and then a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5375">TS</a>]

01:29:36   little bit later uh you know he's he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5376">TS</a>]

01:29:38   chasing after the truck and I'm like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5378">TS</a>]

01:29:40   he's gonna run right to the back of that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5380">TS</a>]

01:29:41   truck is an eighties montage sequence [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5381">TS</a>]

01:29:45   there Paul Dooley gets up on top and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5385">TS</a>]

01:29:47   starts driving a wedge into a big block [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5387">TS</a>]

01:29:49   of rock I'm like he's gonna have that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5389">TS</a>]

01:29:50   heart attack right there he's gonna die [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5390">TS</a>]

01:29:51   and he did a couple scenes later and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5391">TS</a>]

01:29:55   but I mean it was kind of like a minor [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5395">TS</a>]

01:29:56   thing he had that heart attack refund [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5396">TS</a>]

01:29:58   but it just there was sort of that sort [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5398">TS</a>]

01:30:00   of sense that something there's there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5400">TS</a>]

01:30:02   gonna be a tragic moment here having [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5402">TS</a>]

01:30:04   never seen it before I didn't know if it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5404">TS</a>]

01:30:05   was gonna be light or if there was at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5405">TS</a>]

01:30:07   some point gonna be a real low low yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5407">TS</a>]

01:30:09   so comparing this to American Graffiti [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5409">TS</a>]

01:30:10   after watching both of them I felt like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5410">TS</a>]

01:30:12   American Graffiti wants to tell you that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5412">TS</a>]

01:30:14   all this is going away and breaking away [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5414">TS</a>]

01:30:16   once it wants to tell you that good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5416">TS</a>]

01:30:19   things can still happen to you in your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5419">TS</a>]

01:30:20   future like that's what it's not like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5420">TS</a>]

01:30:22   that the jack girl hey we'll get married [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5422">TS</a>]

01:30:24   and you feel like you will have a life [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5424">TS</a>]

01:30:25   as an adult and we'll leave all this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5425">TS</a>]

01:30:27   behind that the day will go to college [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5427">TS</a>]

01:30:28   like that the this movie I mean I don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5428">TS</a>]

01:30:31   know if it's like lying to you and wants [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5431">TS</a>]

01:30:32   to leave it's not as bad as you think it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5432">TS</a>]

01:30:34   is actually things will work out in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5434">TS</a>]

01:30:35   end that that you will you will have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5435">TS</a>]

01:30:39   victories again that you will regain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5439">TS</a>]

01:30:41   your sense of self-worth and good things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5441">TS</a>]

01:30:43   will happen to you and american graffiti [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5443">TS</a>]

01:30:44   is like that won't happen Mike's cop [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5444">TS</a>]

01:30:47   brother who will occasionally like hug [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5447">TS</a>]

01:30:49   bike right like that that in the end [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5449">TS</a>]

01:30:51   they were all they were friends who care [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5451">TS</a>]

01:30:53   for each other and they had families who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5453">TS</a>]

01:30:55   cared like it was not everything is not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5455">TS</a>]

01:30:57   as bad as you think it is you're a bunch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5457">TS</a>]

01:30:58   of whiney white kids in the Midwest and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5458">TS</a>]

01:31:00   it seems bad and you feels like you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5460">TS</a>]

01:31:03   being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5463">TS</a>]

01:31:03   you know under the thumb of these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5463">TS</a>]

01:31:05   college kids but in the end you have it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5465">TS</a>]

01:31:06   pretty good yeah just because you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5466">TS</a>]

01:31:08   stuck in this town doesn't mean you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5468">TS</a>]

01:31:10   necessarily lesser than that writer that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5470">TS</a>]

01:31:11   moved to Canada yeah just because you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5471">TS</a>]

01:31:14   stuck doesn't mean you're stuck I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5474">TS</a>]

01:31:16   that's what I love about the ending of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5476">TS</a>]

01:31:17   it is that Paul Dooley's on a bicycle [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5477">TS</a>]

01:31:18   yeah yeah and he has that kicky sign in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5478">TS</a>]

01:31:21   front of his used car dealership and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5481">TS</a>]

01:31:23   fact that you see him I'm the bicycle i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5483">TS</a>]

01:31:25   think it's just huge you know and i love [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5485">TS</a>]

01:31:28   that it showed i love that it shows that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5488">TS</a>]

01:31:30   evolution of his character and I feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5490">TS</a>]

01:31:32   like that's actually the biggest piece [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5492">TS</a>]

01:31:33   of hope there is that it's never too [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5493">TS</a>]

01:31:35   late to to try something new and become [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5495">TS</a>]

01:31:38   a person you didn't expect to be yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5498">TS</a>]

01:31:40   and Paul Dooley is younger than all of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5500">TS</a>]

01:31:42   us in this movie isn't he like it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5502">TS</a>]

01:31:43   nothing watching at him i'm looking at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5503">TS</a>]

01:31:44   his hair is like his hair is all black [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5504">TS</a>]

01:31:46   how old is he made this movie I don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5506">TS</a>]

01:31:48   know but I feel like he's younger than [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5508">TS</a>]

01:31:49   me in this movie and I'm watching that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5509">TS</a>]

01:31:51   doesn't feel good all I know he was 50 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5511">TS</a>]

01:31:55   he was he was in his early 50s all right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5515">TS</a>]

01:31:58   yeah a little bit better than he's using [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5518">TS</a>]

01:31:59   hair do it yeah I so I I agree with what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5519">TS</a>]

01:32:03   everybody is saying here I there is one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5523">TS</a>]

01:32:04   thing I wanted to point out here so this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5524">TS</a>]

01:32:05   this movie was nominated for four [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5525">TS</a>]

01:32:09   screenplay won the Academy Award for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5529">TS</a>]

01:32:11   Best Screenplay um and you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5531">TS</a>]

01:32:15   sometimes the Academy Award is not the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5535">TS</a>]

01:32:19   best thing and sometimes the best thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5539">TS</a>]

01:32:21   isn't that great but I'm going to say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5541">TS</a>]

01:32:22   this I'm shocked that this movie won an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5542">TS</a>]

01:32:25   award for the screenplay if only because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5545">TS</a>]

01:32:26   I find essentially everything Dennis [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5546">TS</a>]

01:32:29   Quaid says into this movie to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5549">TS</a>]

01:32:31   painfully awful writing there is no the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5551">TS</a>]

01:32:36   opposite of show not tell this movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5556">TS</a>]

01:32:37   tells you does not show it's too yeah I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5557">TS</a>]

01:32:39   in fact John my note says Dennis Quaid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5559">TS</a>]

01:32:42   speech at the stadium is the classic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5562">TS</a>]

01:32:44   example of tell not show he literally [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5564">TS</a>]

01:32:47   just says everything he's feeling and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5567">TS</a>]

01:32:49   everything that's going to happen and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5569">TS</a>]

01:32:51   what his internal conflict is and that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5571">TS</a>]

01:32:53   not the only scene in which especially [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5573">TS</a>]

01:32:54   the Dennis Quaid character says oh I'm a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5574">TS</a>]

01:32:57   symbol of somebody who peaked in high [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5577">TS</a>]

01:32:59   school and now doesn't know what to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5579">TS</a>]

01:33:00   I'm never gonna be the quarterback [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5580">TS</a>]

01:33:02   anymore it's like oh my god it is so bad [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5582">TS</a>]

01:33:05   I mean so I think it one for writing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5585">TS</a>]

01:33:06   because like it is telling it is telling [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5586">TS</a>]

01:33:08   truths right but it's having characters [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5588">TS</a>]

01:33:10   actually say them and when I watch this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5590">TS</a>]

01:33:11   as a kid show the show don't tell thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5591">TS</a>]

01:33:14   was not a glimmer [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5594">TS</a>]

01:33:15   you know in the corner of my eye I had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5595">TS</a>]

01:33:17   no idea about that whole concept so it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5597">TS</a>]

01:33:19   was delivering to me directly in a way [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5599">TS</a>]

01:33:21   that I couldn't picked up it was more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5601">TS</a>]

01:33:22   subtle and watching it again as an adult [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5602">TS</a>]

01:33:24   having seen it a million times as a kid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5604">TS</a>]

01:33:26   I'm like oh this movie doesn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5606">TS</a>]

01:33:28   understand show not tell I'm willing to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5608">TS</a>]

01:33:30   forgive it though because it's such a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5610">TS</a>]

01:33:31   beloved movie from my childhood but yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5611">TS</a>]

01:33:33   that's one what once you get past Dennis [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5613">TS</a>]

01:33:35   quite Quaid's abs which are again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5615">TS</a>]

01:33:39   spectacular edit shredded like lettuce [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5619">TS</a>]

01:33:41   oh just still not passed them he is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5621">TS</a>]

01:33:44   weakest character I think of all the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5624">TS</a>]

01:33:47   ones he's an idea more than a character [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5627">TS</a>]

01:33:49   on his acting scenes where he's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5629">TS</a>]

01:33:51   speaking the expressions on his face and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5631">TS</a>]

01:33:54   the few outbursts that he does have that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5634">TS</a>]

01:33:56   aren't you know George Lucas on the nose [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5636">TS</a>]

01:33:58   the style dialog I think he he does I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5638">TS</a>]

01:34:03   mean there's a reason he went on to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5643">TS</a>]

01:34:04   further stardom in this movie I think he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5644">TS</a>]

01:34:06   does a good job of it but if you got to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5646">TS</a>]

01:34:08   read the lines you gotta read the lines [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5648">TS</a>]

01:34:09   and he's a he's a mood he's a movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5649">TS</a>]

01:34:10   stern on the nectar but the the the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5650">TS</a>]

01:34:14   the other four movies up for Best [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5654">TS</a>]

01:34:16   Original Screenplay that year were and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5656">TS</a>]

01:34:18   justice for all all that jazz the China [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5658">TS</a>]

01:34:20   Syndrome and Manhattan and you know yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5660">TS</a>]

01:34:25   so you know maybe not the strongest i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5665">TS</a>]

01:34:28   like this movie better than any of those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5668">TS</a>]

01:34:29   movies as yeah maybe the best of those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5669">TS</a>]

01:34:32   and it may not have been as strong year [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5672">TS</a>]

01:34:34   for screenplays i just i had that moment [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5674">TS</a>]

01:34:35   where I kind of was like wait a second [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5675">TS</a>]

01:34:36   this one for the screenplay because the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5676">TS</a>]

01:34:38   Quaid dialogue is just awful it is in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5678">TS</a>]

01:34:40   fact if I if you wipe my memory of this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5680">TS</a>]

01:34:42   movie in American Graffiti and then you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5682">TS</a>]

01:34:45   you play them both for me and said which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5685">TS</a>]

01:34:46   one was written by George Lucas I would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5686">TS</a>]

01:34:48   say this one because this dialogue is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5688">TS</a>]

01:34:51   prequel level dialogue from dennis quaid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5691">TS</a>]

01:34:54   it is just there's nothing there no I i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5694">TS</a>]

01:34:56   think the the expressions are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5696">TS</a>]

01:34:58   sophisticated and well put together the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5698">TS</a>]

01:35:01   fact is he's saying them out loud is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5701">TS</a>]

01:35:02   process like said that thats exactly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5702">TS</a>]

01:35:04   this would have simplistic ideas [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5704">TS</a>]

01:35:07   expressed that loud at least this i feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5707">TS</a>]

01:35:09   like this he's saying the subtext oh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5709">TS</a>]

01:35:10   yeah the subtext is is good he's one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5710">TS</a>]

01:35:13   he's one of four characters that all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5713">TS</a>]

01:35:15   have that all have plot lines it's it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5715">TS</a>]

01:35:17   true actually five if you count the dead [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5717">TS</a>]

01:35:18   so I mean you got to put some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5718">TS</a>]

01:35:20   short-handed I wish Quaid yeah I wish [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5720">TS</a>]

01:35:22   Dennis Quaid had been given more to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5722">TS</a>]

01:35:23   to show us his feelings about this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5723">TS</a>]

01:35:27   matter but instead he like literally [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5727">TS</a>]

01:35:28   goes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5728">TS</a>]

01:35:28   to the stadium and points down and says [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5728">TS</a>]

01:35:30   I will never be that quarterback what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5730">TS</a>]

01:35:32   got it got it oh yeah like they can fit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5732">TS</a>]

01:35:34   that in there he can't have one line [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5734">TS</a>]

01:35:35   about them stay in this is simple man [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5735">TS</a>]

01:35:37   he's gonna have like four madam school [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5737">TS</a>]

01:35:39   the worst is when he talks about the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5739">TS</a>]

01:35:40   unlit cigarettes like just haven't do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5740">TS</a>]

01:35:43   that for the whole movie and we'll [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5743">TS</a>]

01:35:44   figure it out instead it's like I even I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5744">TS</a>]

01:35:46   can't bring myself to live cigarette [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5746">TS</a>]

01:35:47   because I think I'm gonna have to go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5747">TS</a>]

01:35:48   back into training like that's a perfect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5748">TS</a>]

01:35:50   thing for you to write in the margins of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5750">TS</a>]

01:35:51   your script while you're riding it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5751">TS</a>]

01:35:53   just look inside we can add the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5753">TS</a>]

01:35:54   characters say it yeah his best moments [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5754">TS</a>]

01:35:56   by far are like the scene where he's at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5756">TS</a>]

01:35:58   the quarry and the college kids show up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5758">TS</a>]

01:36:00   and he just looks at him yeah right yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5760">TS</a>]

01:36:02   he's very good at that Quaid is not the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5762">TS</a>]

01:36:04   problem right it's the lines that he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5764">TS</a>]

01:36:06   given that I think are the problem in a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5766">TS</a>]

01:36:07   movie that I like but that's just that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5767">TS</a>]

01:36:09   for me that was the false note [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5769">TS</a>]

01:36:10   especially I think the second half of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5770">TS</a>]

01:36:12   this film is way stronger than the first [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5772">TS</a>]

01:36:14   half because I don't like the early [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5774">TS</a>]

01:36:15   scenes with the dad and I don't like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5775">TS</a>]

01:36:16   those speeches from dennis quaid and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5776">TS</a>]

01:36:19   then I think it gets a lot better later [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5779">TS</a>]

01:36:20   I don't know what what that means but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5780">TS</a>]

01:36:22   that's that's right now I think you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5782">TS</a>]

01:36:23   let Dennis Quaid do it like the line i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5783">TS</a>]

01:36:25   quoted in the slacker layers like when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5785">TS</a>]

01:36:27   he's angry you can have him snap like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5787">TS</a>]

01:36:29   you're not the quarterback here Mike [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5789">TS</a>]

01:36:30   well at least I was once you get that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5790">TS</a>]

01:36:32   one outbursts what you get at least I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5792">TS</a>]

01:36:33   was once you get one outbursts you don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5793">TS</a>]

01:36:35   get him sight and for the rest of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5795">TS</a>]

01:36:37   movie I will continue to speak the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5797">TS</a>]

01:36:38   subtext of my plot of the four friends [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5798">TS</a>]

01:36:41   though the one that really i think does [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5801">TS</a>]

01:36:43   the has the best thing going for him is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5803">TS</a>]

01:36:46   the the the daniel stern character [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5806">TS</a>]

01:36:49   because um uh he he has a few lines [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5809">TS</a>]

01:36:54   where it's okay yeah you're you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5814">TS</a>]

01:36:56   you're showing not telling but what I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5816">TS</a>]

01:36:58   really love about him is in the bike [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5818">TS</a>]

01:37:00   race um you know gross gross Jackie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5820">TS</a>]

01:37:04   Earle Haley has his wife to hug and he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5824">TS</a>]

01:37:07   just looking around Dennis Christopher [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5827">TS</a>]

01:37:09   gets to hug his parents and um uh Dennis [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5829">TS</a>]

01:37:12   Quaid gets dug his brother the cop right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5832">TS</a>]

01:37:14   to Daniel Stern has a smoke where he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5834">TS</a>]

01:37:18   looking around for someone to hug and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5838">TS</a>]

01:37:19   gets no one enjoys yeah so heartbreaking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5839">TS</a>]

01:37:23   that CIA sir really heartbreaking but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5843">TS</a>]

01:37:25   they allude to it earlier when they say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5845">TS</a>]

01:37:27   well Cyril's dad remember one when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5847">TS</a>]

01:37:29   Dave's dad talks about well so you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5849">TS</a>]

01:37:30   like he is you know yeah he's the one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5850">TS</a>]

01:37:33   obviously as an East Coast neurotic you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5853">TS</a>]

01:37:36   identify with the most because he was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5856">TS</a>]

01:37:38   the most like inside his own head and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5858">TS</a>]

01:37:40   seemingly doesn't fit in anywhere and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5860">TS</a>]

01:37:42   never will and probably will be the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5862">TS</a>]

01:37:44   loser of this group forever well he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5864">TS</a>]

01:37:46   picked up that guitar quick though see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5866">TS</a>]

01:37:47   him just drift in the wind like he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5867">TS</a>]

01:37:49   trying to be happy he's but like there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5869">TS</a>]

01:37:51   nothing yeah well this is the reason I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5871">TS</a>]

01:37:53   like Dave's dead as he seems to sense [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5873">TS</a>]

01:37:54   that a lot of Dave's friends need to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5874">TS</a>]

01:37:57   parented I mean there's a reason why [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5877">TS</a>]

01:37:59   mooch is at that table a lot and I get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5879">TS</a>]

01:38:02   the sense that Dave's dad probably also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5882">TS</a>]

01:38:04   is it is a gruff ear for cereal every [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5884">TS</a>]

01:38:07   once in a while too because cereals dad [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5887">TS</a>]

01:38:08   is well established as a jerk store and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5888">TS</a>]

01:38:10   Tom yeah you don't get the sense that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5890">TS</a>]

01:38:12   that Dave's friends are very well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5892">TS</a>]

01:38:14   parented at all and that his his parents [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5894">TS</a>]

01:38:15   are the only ones who are involved in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5895">TS</a>]

01:38:17   that all of his friends like that and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5897">TS</a>]

01:38:18   kind of need that on some level as well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5898">TS</a>]

01:38:19   well moochers dad took off to Chicago [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5899">TS</a>]

01:38:21   and left him in the house yeah expecting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5901">TS</a>]

01:38:24   him to sell its own oh yeah the house [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5904">TS</a>]

01:38:25   that's for sale you got the first sale [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5905">TS</a>]

01:38:26   so so we've been I mean then what we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5906">TS</a>]

01:38:28   does does have bits it's not like they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5908">TS</a>]

01:38:30   all the subtext is on the screen of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5910">TS</a>]

01:38:32   dialogue well some of the news but yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5912">TS</a>]

01:38:33   the rest of the movie is is pretty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5913">TS</a>]

01:38:35   strong it's just that like idea of that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5915">TS</a>]

01:38:37   you have to have shorthand because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5917">TS</a>]

01:38:38   you've got a lot of characters you gotta [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5918">TS</a>]

01:38:39   fit all and that's the art of screen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5919">TS</a>]

01:38:40   right you gotta find a way to get the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5920">TS</a>]

01:38:43   five because i think this does a really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5923">TS</a>]

01:38:44   good job of weaving together the arcs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5924">TS</a>]

01:38:46   and having a bunch of good scenes like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5926">TS</a>]

01:38:48   bunch of good ideas for cinema like when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5928">TS</a>]

01:38:50   he's driving his beat-up automobile [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5930">TS</a>]

01:38:52   backwards next to the mercedes you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5932">TS</a>]

01:38:54   and there are sort of hot rodding around [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5934">TS</a>]

01:38:55   trying to chase after the college kids [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5935">TS</a>]

01:38:57   and everything lots of good things that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5937">TS</a>]

01:38:59   work as movies is just that you know a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5939">TS</a>]

01:39:01   few dialogue scenes they feel like you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5941">TS</a>]

01:39:04   have to give these seven ideas in and we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5944">TS</a>]

01:39:05   need to get in and out in this amount of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5945">TS</a>]

01:39:07   time and it was like all right well I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5947">TS</a>]

01:39:09   just gonna say it I'm just gonna say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5949">TS</a>]

01:39:10   what's mostly going on I throw up my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5950">TS</a>]

01:39:11   hands at this boy yeah but again as a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5951">TS</a>]

01:39:13   kid um this never occurred to make [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5953">TS</a>]

01:39:15   watching this movie the many many many [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5955">TS</a>]

01:39:17   times it never occurred to me that they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5957">TS</a>]

01:39:18   were saying is out like is it because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5958">TS</a>]

01:39:19   that because that's what I needed to you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5959">TS</a>]

01:39:21   know as a kid you're not going to pick [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5961">TS</a>]

01:39:22   up on this stuff if they don't like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5962">TS</a>]

01:39:23   literally come out and tell you in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5963">TS</a>]

01:39:25   same way that you read you know books [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5965">TS</a>]

01:39:26   when you're in middle school in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5966">TS</a>]

01:39:27   English teacher has to explain to you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5967">TS</a>]

01:39:28   this is what this means because if the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5968">TS</a>]

01:39:30   English teacher doesn't explain it to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5970">TS</a>]

01:39:31   you you will have a dim vague distant [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5971">TS</a>]

01:39:33   awareness of it but not really ever put [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5973">TS</a>]

01:39:35   two and two together and this would we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5975">TS</a>]

01:39:36   just comes out and says it yes I feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5976">TS</a>]

01:39:39   time to thank you movie for saying that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5979">TS</a>]

01:39:40   I do want to call out as it as a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5980">TS</a>]

01:39:42   plus the the scene where he's racing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5982">TS</a>]

01:39:44   with the Italians and they Jam a rod [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5984">TS</a>]

01:39:47   through his back his back wheel sending [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5987">TS</a>]

01:39:50   him into the dirt I actually had a hard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5990">TS</a>]

01:39:52   time watching it the second time because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5992">TS</a>]

01:39:54   it is so heartbreaking I don't watch his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5994">TS</a>]

01:39:56   dreams just Schatz right what that's why [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/5996">TS</a>]

01:40:01   life life is terrible never meet your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6001">TS</a>]

01:40:04   idols is the lesson although i will say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6004">TS</a>]

01:40:06   that when the guy messes with his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6006">TS</a>]

01:40:08   shifters the look of sheer outrage on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6008">TS</a>]

01:40:10   his face is absolutely hysterical i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6010">TS</a>]

01:40:39   they apparently just never saw this film [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6039">TS</a>]

01:40:41   because they are thanked in the credits [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6041">TS</a>]

01:40:43   while they are thanked in the credits [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6043">TS</a>]

01:40:44   there's the truck is a chin zano truck [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6044">TS</a>]

01:40:46   it is like product placement before [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6046">TS</a>]

01:40:49   there was product placement yes fortunes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6049">TS</a>]

01:41:34   to the John Boorman trajectory I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6094">TS</a>]

01:41:37   there's a deeper story there that we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMZTARMk/6097">TS</a>]
