1
00:00:00,233 --> 00:00:01,434
All right, all right.

2
00:00:01,434 --> 00:00:02,902
Feeney Talks with friends.

3
00:00:02,902 --> 00:00:05,271
Episode 127.

4
00:00:05,271 --> 00:00:07,273
We got an exciting podcast.

5
00:00:07,273 --> 00:00:11,611
We got the LeBron James and Bronny James
first father son combo.

6
00:00:11,611 --> 00:00:12,645
I'm really happy to hear you.

7
00:00:12,645 --> 00:00:14,614
What's up? Bill, how are you doing? Eric?

8
00:00:14,614 --> 00:00:17,117
How are you doing? Max?
I'm doing very good. Thank you.

9
00:00:17,117 --> 00:00:19,652
This is going to be very exciting.
We're going to talk sports.

10
00:00:19,652 --> 00:00:22,422
We're going to talk movies
and everything in between.

11
00:00:22,422 --> 00:00:25,592
Again, my name is Eric Feeney, founder
and president of Friends of Feeney.

12
00:00:25,592 --> 00:00:26,493
Our mission is to help

13
00:00:26,493 --> 00:00:29,462
children and families that need assistance
after heartbreak or tragedy.

14
00:00:29,662 --> 00:00:30,997
And I use this podcast.

15
00:00:30,997 --> 00:00:33,500
Feeney talks with friends,
and I talk to wonderful people

16
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:35,402
that are doing great things.

17
00:00:35,402 --> 00:00:37,270
In Max, you do great things.

18
00:00:37,270 --> 00:00:38,938
Thank you. What is it that you do, Max?

19
00:00:41,074 --> 00:00:42,642
I am a,

20
00:00:42,642 --> 00:00:46,613
film critic, and I have a website
that I write reviews for.

21
00:00:46,613 --> 00:00:51,151
I also coordinate film schedules
for a hotel,

22
00:00:52,152 --> 00:00:54,554
which is,

23
00:00:54,554 --> 00:00:58,658
property owned by Larry Corman,
who's been very good to me and my family.

24
00:00:59,059 --> 00:01:04,764
And, I'm very, very passionate
about, cinema and storytelling.

25
00:01:04,764 --> 00:01:08,168
And I am actually currently
writing a script, and I,

26
00:01:08,802 --> 00:01:11,805
hope to, go pretty far with it.

27
00:01:11,805 --> 00:01:13,740
Oh, amazing. Yeah, we'll get into that.

28
00:01:13,740 --> 00:01:16,576
I'm so happy that you're here.
Thank you for coming.

29
00:01:16,576 --> 00:01:21,147
And now we have a marketing specialist
for Ashley Furniture.

30
00:01:21,247 --> 00:01:22,482
Billy. Yes, sir.

31
00:01:22,482 --> 00:01:23,249
Yes, sir.

32
00:01:23,249 --> 00:01:26,519
Billy's a great,
great person on and off the court.

33
00:01:26,653 --> 00:01:29,189
How you been, Billy? I've been good.
I've been good.

34
00:01:29,189 --> 00:01:31,558
Funny that you mention, LeBron and Bronny.

35
00:01:31,558 --> 00:01:33,626
I don't think Max knows who Bronny is.

36
00:01:33,626 --> 00:01:34,961
That's the beauty of our home.

37
00:01:34,961 --> 00:01:38,498
And I think he really only knows LeBron
through LeBron being in the movies.

38
00:01:38,498 --> 00:01:41,935
Not really on the hoop court, but,
that's kind of been our life.

39
00:01:41,935 --> 00:01:45,772
I'm a hoop and a sports junkie from day
one, and,

40
00:01:46,372 --> 00:01:51,845
Max has a twin as you have twin girls,
and, Jake and Max just love the cinema,

41
00:01:51,845 --> 00:01:53,780
and he can talk more about it,
what got him into it.

42
00:01:53,780 --> 00:01:57,617
But at our house, when I ask anyone, Max,
do you want to watch the Super Bowl?

43
00:01:57,617 --> 00:01:58,918
What do you usually say?

44
00:01:58,918 --> 00:02:00,453
No thank you, no thank you.

45
00:02:00,453 --> 00:02:05,325
And, he says, but on this year, on March
2nd, the Oscars, that's his Super Bowl.

46
00:02:05,325 --> 00:02:07,494
And we make a big deal about it
at our homes.

47
00:02:07,494 --> 00:02:09,362
I got enough friends to talk sports with.

48
00:02:09,362 --> 00:02:12,031
I don't need to do it in the house.
But you guys, man. All good.

49
00:02:12,031 --> 00:02:13,032
Do you have an Oscar party?

50
00:02:14,634 --> 00:02:15,935
Some years we have.

51
00:02:15,935 --> 00:02:18,404
Mostly. We just really enjoy watching
us. Yeah.

52
00:02:18,404 --> 00:02:21,107
Nice house. Yeah. Nice. Well,
yeah. March 2nd.

53
00:02:21,107 --> 00:02:22,675
We'll talk about some of your predictions.

54
00:02:22,675 --> 00:02:24,711
I can't wait to get into that.

55
00:02:24,711 --> 00:02:27,480
First we'll do steam room. Sure.

56
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,483
With Ernie, PJ, Eric, Joseph and Barkley.

57
00:02:30,483 --> 00:02:31,684
Yeah. Keep it on.

58
00:02:31,684 --> 00:02:34,254
Keep your towels
on. So, did you steam today?

59
00:02:34,254 --> 00:02:38,324
Actually, I steamed and I saw on it,
and I took a swim,

60
00:02:38,691 --> 00:02:42,128
and I got a basketball game
in about 2.5 hours that I just found out

61
00:02:42,128 --> 00:02:43,630
I have to play the entire 40 minutes.

62
00:02:43,630 --> 00:02:47,367
And a 60 years old will be using
all the timeouts tonight and.

63
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:48,568
We can't wait.

64
00:02:48,568 --> 00:02:50,503
Yeah, I did swim today. Half a mile.

65
00:02:50,503 --> 00:02:52,772
I'm learning to breathe on both sides
now. Awesome.

66
00:02:52,772 --> 00:02:56,342
I had swimmer shoulder
and breathing on one side consistently.

67
00:02:56,342 --> 00:02:57,744
That left shoulder.

68
00:02:57,744 --> 00:02:59,913
But now if you breathe on both sides,
it equals it out.

69
00:02:59,913 --> 00:03:01,681
Max actually swims a lot too.

70
00:03:01,681 --> 00:03:04,951
That's kind of how I got into it too,
because then I big into sports,

71
00:03:05,218 --> 00:03:08,855
but I wanted them to swim,
be physical and active and,

72
00:03:09,289 --> 00:03:12,659
Jake and Max actually
both on the, on the neuro spectrum

73
00:03:12,659 --> 00:03:16,129
and a lot of kids on the spectrum
have always, neurologically.

74
00:03:16,129 --> 00:03:17,830
But water is great for them.

75
00:03:17,830 --> 00:03:19,566
And, he loves swimming.

76
00:03:19,566 --> 00:03:23,403
Max, you'll swim 30, 45 minutes,
just like, you know, my wife and myself.

77
00:03:23,603 --> 00:03:25,505
We swim probably 4 or 5 times a week.

78
00:03:25,505 --> 00:03:26,673
So, yeah, it's a family.

79
00:03:26,673 --> 00:03:28,975
Family affair
in the water lanes three, four and five.

80
00:03:28,975 --> 00:03:31,945
Usually. Yeah. Nice. Nice. Yeah.
So when my daughter, my daughter came.

81
00:03:31,945 --> 00:03:34,013
So we do have a little family event.
It's great.

82
00:03:34,013 --> 00:03:36,049
Good thing
that. She likes the breaststroke.

83
00:03:36,049 --> 00:03:37,951
I do the freestyle and mix it up,
you know.

84
00:03:37,951 --> 00:03:39,919
And I get out sauna.

85
00:03:39,919 --> 00:03:41,754
Exactly. Sauna. Steam.

86
00:03:41,754 --> 00:03:43,423
You like the steam of a sauna?

87
00:03:43,423 --> 00:03:44,824
Because I always ask people in it.

88
00:03:44,824 --> 00:03:45,692
I probably have

89
00:03:45,692 --> 00:03:49,462
pretty loquacious inside the sauna,
but seems like more people say the sauna.

90
00:03:49,462 --> 00:03:52,031
And I used to do just steam,
but I'm trying to.

91
00:03:52,031 --> 00:03:54,033
Yeah, I think, sauna.

92
00:03:54,033 --> 00:03:56,669
I like to end with the steam. Yeah.
And then shave.

93
00:03:56,669 --> 00:03:58,171
Because you get the noise. Going.

94
00:03:58,171 --> 00:04:00,673
Oh, not in a cold shower.
It's like you're 12 years old again.

95
00:04:00,673 --> 00:04:01,608
Cold. Cold shot.

96
00:04:01,608 --> 00:04:03,910
Yeah. Exactly. Yeah.
And it takes a while to get. Used to it.

97
00:04:03,910 --> 00:04:05,511
I mean, amazing way to start the day.

98
00:04:05,511 --> 00:04:07,013
I feel happy, healthy.

99
00:04:07,013 --> 00:04:09,849
Yeah.
Your endorphins are up. You exercised,

100
00:04:11,150 --> 00:04:11,751
cold shower.

101
00:04:11,751 --> 00:04:16,489
So I, I'm telling all the on the podcast
when I make a recommendation, write

102
00:04:16,489 --> 00:04:21,361
a handwritten note, take a cold shower,
even regular shower at the end.

103
00:04:21,361 --> 00:04:22,262
Turn it very cold.

104
00:04:22,262 --> 00:04:24,197
I try to do it for about 30s at the end.

105
00:04:24,197 --> 00:04:25,398
And so Bender.

106
00:04:25,398 --> 00:04:26,499
Bender swam this morning.

107
00:04:26,499 --> 00:04:26,899
Okay.

108
00:04:26,899 --> 00:04:28,701
Yeah, I actually years ago

109
00:04:28,701 --> 00:04:31,704
I went into the Atlantic Ocean
between Christmas and New Year's once.

110
00:04:31,904 --> 00:04:32,972
That was cold, my friend.

111
00:04:32,972 --> 00:04:35,375
It was cold.
The ocean was cold that day. Yeah.

112
00:04:35,375 --> 00:04:37,710
And speaking of all this sauna,
where does it take place?

113
00:04:37,710 --> 00:04:39,112
What's it? Where do we do it?

114
00:04:39,112 --> 00:04:43,783
The, Bloomfield Jewish Community Center,
which is just been a great haven.

115
00:04:43,783 --> 00:04:46,786
I've met a ton of friends, yourself
included.

116
00:04:47,353 --> 00:04:48,788
Just it's just wonderful.

117
00:04:48,788 --> 00:04:51,991
There's so many great things
that constantly go on there from,

118
00:04:51,991 --> 00:04:57,163
you know, preschool to private events to,
you know, the, the fit, the fitness area.

119
00:04:57,163 --> 00:04:59,432
This private Pilates
lessons is also stuff.

120
00:04:59,432 --> 00:05:02,201
I love that they just recently
had a beautiful photography show.

121
00:05:02,201 --> 00:05:05,438
It's really and it's embraces
to the whole, to the whole community.

122
00:05:05,438 --> 00:05:07,373
So yeah, it's a wonderful place.

123
00:05:07,373 --> 00:05:08,941
I cosign on the great people.

124
00:05:08,941 --> 00:05:11,678
I've been in the Wednesday
Basketball League for 16 years. Yeah.

125
00:05:11,678 --> 00:05:13,513
How long have you been
in? Since we moved here.

126
00:05:13,513 --> 00:05:15,381
So about 20 years? Yeah. 20 years. Yeah.

127
00:05:15,381 --> 00:05:16,783
Great network of guys. Yeah.

128

130
00:05:21,421 --> 00:05:21,721

Do you know a guy named Ty.

00:06:41,634 --> 00:06:44,670
My man, my man. Tie. Ty is legendary.

167

You know what

00:06:51,010 --> 00:06:54,781
him because he makes me feel like Shaq,
you know, but, size wise.

171
00:06:54,781 --> 00:06:57,784
But tie. I said tie your friends.

172
00:06:58,151 --> 00:06:59,051
How do I say it?

173
00:06:59,051 --> 00:07:02,054
You know, I said kids love you.

174
00:07:02,455 --> 00:07:06,492
Your friends deep down admire
you and the parents respect you.

175
00:07:06,492 --> 00:07:09,529
You really cross all, all levels of,
you know, people.

176
00:07:09,529 --> 00:07:12,732
And just besides just being friendly
and coming from a wonderful family,

177
00:07:12,732 --> 00:07:16,602
he I have a friend who's similar
to Ty, much older in Worcester.

178
00:07:17,270 --> 00:07:18,571
I was actually best man at his wedding.

179
00:07:18,571 --> 00:07:22,041
My buddy Bob Berman Bob
spent at the Worcester JCC

180
00:07:22,041 --> 00:07:25,411
started part time
and it's been the ad there for years.

181
00:07:25,411 --> 00:07:29,048
He's going, I think 44, 45 years
got the key to the city and Worcester

182
00:07:29,048 --> 00:07:33,019
ties right on pretty
much the same trajectory doing it here.

183
00:07:33,152 --> 00:07:36,055
You know, obviously
much younger Bob 66 or 67

184
00:07:36,055 --> 00:07:39,192
right now and yeah, similar career path.

185
00:07:39,192 --> 00:07:42,995
And I remember when I wasn't sure I said
you start and he's he started part time

186
00:07:42,995 --> 00:07:45,998
and then someone leave,
someone comes, you get an opportunity.

187
00:07:45,998 --> 00:07:48,534
And life's
all about creating your own chances.

188
00:07:48,534 --> 00:07:50,970
Everyone says people are lucky,
but I believe in you.

189
00:07:50,970 --> 00:07:52,572
Create your own luck. You got him.

190
00:07:52,572 --> 00:07:53,606
You got to take a chance.

191
00:07:53,606 --> 00:07:56,442
Take a gamble. Bet on yourself.
Always bet on yourself.

192
00:07:56,442 --> 00:07:57,810
And, Titus.

193
00:07:57,810 --> 00:07:58,110
Great.

194
00:07:58,110 --> 00:08:00,813
You go up there on a Sunday's
300 kids. Mr.

195
00:08:00,813 --> 00:08:03,015
tag Coach. Up, up, up, up.
You know, a parking.

196
00:08:03,015 --> 00:08:04,250
Lot is a zoo on. Some.

197
00:08:04,250 --> 00:08:07,053
It's a zoo. It's a zoo. But,
yeah, it ties.

198
00:08:07,053 --> 00:08:07,386
What is your.

199
00:08:07,386 --> 00:08:09,622
Buddy Bob, a Jewish Hall of Famer?

200
00:08:10,890 --> 00:08:13,593
He I believe I believe he is, but,

201
00:08:13,593 --> 00:08:17,530
yeah, that was wonderful having Ty,
be represented in the community.

202
00:08:17,530 --> 00:08:20,166
We were all there yourself,
obviously, myself included.

203
00:08:20,166 --> 00:08:23,135
And and really,
everyone on our text read that.

204
00:08:23,135 --> 00:08:23,402
Yeah.

205
00:08:23,402 --> 00:08:26,339
It's just just
I was in this last September, again,

206
00:08:26,339 --> 00:08:29,375
just a great honor
for 20 years of true commitment to,

207
00:08:29,609 --> 00:08:32,545
again, it's not just the kids,
the families, the adults.

208
00:08:32,545 --> 00:08:35,548
So can your buddy Bob score 70?

209
00:08:37,650 --> 00:08:40,920
You know, he might be able to be ty in
just, like, a free throw game, but,

210
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,724
you know, again, Ty's a pass
first point guard who somehow scored 70 in

211
00:08:44,757 --> 00:08:46,726
a game, but just marble.

212
00:08:46,726 --> 00:08:48,694
I'll tell you this one
quick story about Ty.

213
00:08:48,694 --> 00:08:53,833
So, about 4 or 5 years ago, buddy,
my Rick Capela at the time

214
00:08:53,833 --> 00:08:59,038
was the president of Ashley or senior
VP cricket play D1 still playing hoop.

215
00:08:59,038 --> 00:09:00,573
He's a couple years older than me.

216
00:09:00,573 --> 00:09:02,241
And I said, dude, you got to come.

217
00:09:02,241 --> 00:09:04,110
He says, Mark,
where are we going to eat tonight?

218
00:09:04,110 --> 00:09:06,812
You know, after one of our appointments,
I said, what do you mean?

219
00:09:06,812 --> 00:09:09,615
I said, I have a game. He goes, what
do you mean we're going to go to work?

220
00:09:09,615 --> 00:09:11,150
I'm like the president of Ashland.

221
00:09:11,150 --> 00:09:12,919
You're going to bring me
to a hoop game tonight.

222
00:09:12,919 --> 00:09:15,721
I said, listen, I committed to the team.
We have a game tonight.

223
00:09:15,721 --> 00:09:19,125
You're going to see this kid
about five 4 or 5 five Vietnamese kid.

224
00:09:19,125 --> 00:09:22,128
All you going to say
is that you're going to be like,

225
00:09:22,128 --> 00:09:25,064
you're going to shake your head.
So sure enough, he comes to the game.

226
00:09:25,064 --> 00:09:28,367
And 40 is a game that Rob Alcorn,
you know, blew out his knee.

227
00:09:28,701 --> 00:09:32,738
And but I think early on
the game was maybe like 11 or 2 Ty.

228
00:09:32,738 --> 00:09:34,740
It hit three straight
threes. And I looked at Rick.

229
00:09:34,740 --> 00:09:37,109
And the crowd is usually
what about four people in the crowd?

230
00:09:37,109 --> 00:09:38,611
You know, someone's girlfriend.

231
00:09:38,611 --> 00:09:41,280
You know, maybe a kid in Australia
or a lot stranger.

232
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,083
And that Rick was there
and he was just like, oh my God.

233
00:09:44,083 --> 00:09:45,451
And I said, see it.

234
00:09:45,451 --> 00:09:47,253
You got to see
it to believe it. Ty's just,

235
00:09:48,254 --> 00:09:49,922
like Allen Iverson, pound for pound.

236
00:09:49,922 --> 00:09:52,358
Toughest point guard in the NBA.
And he's great.

237
00:09:52,358 --> 00:09:54,393
I love playing with him in against him.

238
00:09:54,393 --> 00:09:55,328
Yeah. Rob our account.

239
00:09:55,328 --> 00:09:57,930
Shout out episode number three. Yeah.

00:09:57,930 --> 00:10:00,900

outs here and do some, sponsors here.

249
00:10:20,252 --> 00:10:21,721
and West Hartford lock.

250
00:10:21,721 --> 00:10:23,556
So Billy with West Hartford Lock.

251
00:10:23,556 --> 00:10:27,093
What are three keys
that make you great at selling

252
00:10:27,093 --> 00:10:30,296
at being a marketing specialist
for Ashley's Furniture.

253
00:10:30,296 --> 00:10:31,097
Yeah.

254
00:10:31,097 --> 00:10:36,302
I would say three keys to my success over
my career has just been passion.

255
00:10:36,802 --> 00:10:40,873
I'll often have dealers say, man, Marco,
like you, you actually love what you do,

256
00:10:40,973 --> 00:10:41,941
you know, and I do.

257
00:10:41,941 --> 00:10:44,477
And it, of course,
you know. Products imperative.

258
00:10:44,477 --> 00:10:46,012
You need a good product, but,

259
00:10:47,546 --> 00:10:49,982
it's just, you know, just having passion.

260
00:10:49,982 --> 00:10:50,883
Follow through.

261
00:10:50,883 --> 00:10:52,685
And in these days,
just direct communication.

262
00:10:52,685 --> 00:10:53,753
There is no reason.

263
00:10:53,753 --> 00:10:56,188
You know, unfortunately,
I always have said

264
00:10:56,188 --> 00:10:58,557
the cell phone's the greatest invention
and source invention.

265
00:10:58,557 --> 00:11:00,359
But someone reaches out to you,

266
00:11:00,359 --> 00:11:04,764
and I know guys who worked for me
who've moved on or or other reps.

267
00:11:04,764 --> 00:11:06,632
When I speak to them,
I say, hey, listen, don't.

268
00:11:06,632 --> 00:11:07,500
So I reached out to you.

269
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:08,734
They're not calling you to say, hey,

270
00:11:08,734 --> 00:11:10,503
you know, how do you think the Red Sox
are going to be this year?

271
00:11:10,503 --> 00:11:11,470
They're calling you because they need you.

272
00:11:11,470 --> 00:11:14,373
They have a consumer right in
front of the name and they need your help.

273
00:11:14,373 --> 00:11:16,275
So my phone's always blown up,
especially on,

274
00:11:16,275 --> 00:11:18,077
you know, weekends
with all sorts of consumers.

275
00:11:18,077 --> 00:11:20,680
But I always want to be available.
It's a two way street.

276
00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:22,448
I mean, yes, do I sell them furniture?

277
00:11:22,448 --> 00:11:27,553
I do, but my success really translates
if they're successful at the retail level.

278
00:11:27,553 --> 00:11:31,557
So I just think as I just mentioned,
you know, obviously being, you know,

279
00:11:31,557 --> 00:11:34,293
knowledge base,
but not just presenting the product and,

280
00:11:34,293 --> 00:11:34,527
you know,

281
00:11:34,527 --> 00:11:38,597
being good at the actual sales aspect, but
just having a passion for representing,

282
00:11:38,597 --> 00:11:39,398
you know, I'm fortunate

283
00:11:39,398 --> 00:11:42,902
to have represented Ashley Furniture
and La-Z-Boy over the last 35 years,

284
00:11:42,902 --> 00:11:45,938
just to top notch companies
in the industry. And,

285
00:11:47,006 --> 00:11:49,842
you know, but I think everything,
as I said earlier, starts with passion.

286
00:11:49,842 --> 00:11:54,480
And how was it being the Frank Robinson of
of getting the, MVP and both,

287
00:11:55,314 --> 00:11:58,384
Well, they don't call it the MVP,
but I was, fortunate

288
00:11:58,384 --> 00:12:01,520
to to be what they call,
marketing specialists for the year.

289
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,724
And Ashley, at one point
and I did get similar type

290
00:12:04,724 --> 00:12:08,928
award at La-Z-Boy back in the day, but,
those those are those are good days.

291
00:12:08,928 --> 00:12:10,730
But, you know, it's sales.

292
00:12:10,730 --> 00:12:13,733
If I told you my numbers right
now, you wouldn't believe that.

293
00:12:13,733 --> 00:12:15,034
You know, the prior 30s.

294
00:12:15,034 --> 00:12:18,804
Because business is challenging right
now, but just got to every day is a grind.

295
00:12:18,804 --> 00:12:21,440
And, you know Patriots are down 28 three.

296
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:21,974
But they won.

297
00:12:21,974 --> 00:12:24,810
So I think we'll be okay
by the end of the year.

298
00:12:24,810 --> 00:12:27,513
And I want to thank, you know,
that you're here for your continued

299
00:12:27,513 --> 00:12:30,950
support, your generosity
and your sponsorship.

300
00:12:30,950 --> 00:12:33,719
You've sponsored
multiple friends at Feeney events.

301
00:12:33,719 --> 00:12:35,688
You're always so generous and thoughtful.

302
00:12:35,688 --> 00:12:39,325
You donated furniture
to furniture to families in need.

303
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,394
You know, you you wear the gear.

304
00:12:42,394 --> 00:12:44,263
We have you and Parker wearing stuff.

305
00:12:44,263 --> 00:12:47,266
I'll show a. Picture. Yeah. And then,

306
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,003
But no, just a great, great friend
on and off the court.

307
00:12:51,537 --> 00:12:53,572
You know,
we only played, what, one season together?

308
00:12:53,572 --> 00:12:54,406
Yeah, yeah.

309
00:12:54,406 --> 00:12:57,143
Got a title, though. Got the title.

310
00:12:57,143 --> 00:12:59,211
Let's see. That's. Oh, that's you.

311
00:12:59,211 --> 00:13:03,649
So Wampanoag
Country Club January 30th, 2021.

312
00:13:04,083 --> 00:13:06,952
There you go. Yeah, I like it. That's me.

313
00:13:06,952 --> 00:13:09,455
Where was this?

314
00:13:09,455 --> 00:13:11,791
Oh, obviously during Covid that looks at,

315
00:13:11,791 --> 00:13:14,794
first and last looks like first
and last on the background.

316
00:13:15,060 --> 00:13:18,030
And then who's this guy?

317
00:13:20,633 --> 00:13:22,468
So, beloved doggy Parker.

318
00:13:22,468 --> 00:13:22,935
Parker.

319
00:13:22,935 --> 00:13:26,972
We lost Parker, a few months back
after nine and a half years and just.

320
00:13:27,173 --> 00:13:27,673
Oh, no.

321
00:13:27,673 --> 00:13:29,708
It's a big loss in the house, you know?

322
00:13:29,708 --> 00:13:33,946
But, as they say, there's always
two things everyone says about dogs.

323
00:13:33,946 --> 00:13:36,649
Everyone thinks they have the best dog,
and everyone's right.

324
00:13:36,649 --> 00:13:38,918
And, you could have a dog for 20 years.

325
00:13:38,918 --> 00:13:39,752
It's not enough.

326
00:13:39,752 --> 00:13:42,121
He was the best. We miss him, a lot. So,

327
00:13:43,923 --> 00:13:44,824
But he was great.

328
00:13:44,824 --> 00:13:46,058
And he loved awareness.

329
00:13:46,058 --> 00:13:47,092
Friends, a Feeney care.

330
00:13:47,092 --> 00:13:49,728
But I'll tell you,
I will always sponsor you.

331
00:13:49,728 --> 00:13:51,564
I have mad respect for you.

332
00:13:51,564 --> 00:13:54,333
I remember even, Max,
you probably don't remember this

333
00:13:54,333 --> 00:13:56,368
because you were young,
but your first bicycle

334
00:13:56,368 --> 00:14:00,472
that you rode, a two seater,
you had gotten you about 14, 15.

335
00:14:00,472 --> 00:14:01,707
You weren't riding anymore.

336
00:14:01,707 --> 00:14:04,476
I asked you, do you remember? I asked you,
do you mind if I give it to a friend?

337
00:14:04,476 --> 00:14:07,179
At the time you didn't know,
but I donated it to you.

338
00:14:07,179 --> 00:14:09,748
And I believe
you gave it to the kid. And you.

339
00:14:09,748 --> 00:14:12,251
I think he sent me a picture
a couple of days later. The kid loved it.

340
00:14:12,251 --> 00:14:15,554
I remember I was able to help
you bring a kid to a Sox game.

341
00:14:15,554 --> 00:14:16,655
The kid loved it.

342
00:14:16,655 --> 00:14:19,058
And those are things
that that means everything.

343
00:14:19,058 --> 00:14:20,993
You know,
I've been going to Fenway since 72.

344
00:14:20,993 --> 00:14:24,163
I was happy to give up my tickets out
year, you know, for that game and

345
00:14:24,830 --> 00:14:25,831
all those things are great.

346
00:14:25,831 --> 00:14:28,834
You know, it's all about paying it forward
and helping people in need.

347
00:14:29,268 --> 00:14:30,970
You for sure.
Got it. You have a good heart.

348
00:14:30,970 --> 00:14:33,205
So thank you for being a good friend
always.

349
00:14:33,205 --> 00:14:34,740
Thank you for being here.

350
00:14:34,740 --> 00:14:36,675
Now we're going to
we'll come back to JC hoop.

351
00:14:36,675 --> 00:14:40,145
But let's first now
segue over to my guy Max.

352
00:14:40,846 --> 00:14:43,215
How's everything Max. Very good.
Thank you.

353
00:14:43,215 --> 00:14:45,651
Now how is it to be a movie critic? What?

354
00:14:45,651 --> 00:14:47,253
Where did you find your inspiration?

355
00:14:48,387 --> 00:14:49,922
Well,

356
00:14:49,922 --> 00:14:52,391
I don't I don't
really know that I found it anywhere.

357
00:14:52,391 --> 00:14:55,961
I think I've just,
I've just always loved cinema.

358
00:14:55,961 --> 00:14:59,331
And as, as I grew up, I continued to,

359
00:15:00,666 --> 00:15:02,601
enjoy everything that was coming out

360
00:15:02,601 --> 00:15:05,604
and just have so much to say about,

361
00:15:06,605 --> 00:15:09,608
the films I saw,
but also the quality of the filmmaking.

362
00:15:09,608 --> 00:15:13,145
And, I just, I love storytelling,
I love the artistry of it.

363
00:15:13,412 --> 00:15:16,682
And I think that we, the world has always,
always needed that.

364
00:15:17,349 --> 00:15:19,518
We definitely need it now.

365
00:15:19,518 --> 00:15:21,553
More than ever.

366
00:15:21,553 --> 00:15:24,390
And, fortunately, there's there.

367
00:15:24,390 --> 00:15:29,228
This year in cinema has been wonderful,
and I'm, I'm sure that it's,

368
00:15:29,361 --> 00:15:32,364
something tells me to see it's
going to be great, too.

369
00:15:33,032 --> 00:15:36,001
And I,

370
00:15:36,001 --> 00:15:39,538
I've always wanted to work,
in the film industry.

371
00:15:39,538 --> 00:15:41,774
I've always wanted to be a filmmaker,
but growing up,

372
00:15:41,774 --> 00:15:44,109
it wasn't something
I thought I would ever do.

373
00:15:45,144 --> 00:15:47,980
I just didn't,

374
00:15:47,980 --> 00:15:51,850
I don't know, I just I didn't think
it just felt like a pipe dream.

375
00:15:51,850 --> 00:15:53,652
It felt like something
that was too far away.

376
00:15:53,652 --> 00:15:56,021
But I think,

377
00:15:56,021 --> 00:15:59,358
you know, I,
I think we're all pretty angry right now

378
00:15:59,358 --> 00:16:02,361
about a lot of things going
on, and I think,

379
00:16:02,528 --> 00:16:04,163
I think I just was like, you know what?

380
00:16:04,163 --> 00:16:05,064
Why can't I?

381
00:16:05,064 --> 00:16:08,067
So, and I have a lot to say, and,

382
00:16:09,535 --> 00:16:14,306
since the beginning of last year,
I've been developing the scripts

383
00:16:14,306 --> 00:16:15,441
I'm writing now.

384
00:16:15,441 --> 00:16:18,877
And on January 1st of this year,
I started writing it, and,

385
00:16:19,845 --> 00:16:22,147
I'm, you know, if I'm not done with it

386
00:16:22,147 --> 00:16:25,150
by the end of the year, I'll be very,
very close.

387
00:16:26,051 --> 00:16:29,221
Certainly the Oscars after this coming
Oscars.

388
00:16:29,488 --> 00:16:31,457
I'll be done with that.

389
00:16:31,457 --> 00:16:31,757
But can.

390
00:16:31,757 --> 00:16:35,094
You give us an exclusive what's the story
line and give us a little plot.

391
00:16:35,094 --> 00:16:36,628
So he doesn't even tell me?

392
00:16:36,628 --> 00:16:36,862
Yeah.

393
00:16:36,862 --> 00:16:38,430
Come on, this is an exclusive.

394
00:16:38,430 --> 00:16:41,033
So, I'm thinking of.

395
00:16:41,033 --> 00:16:42,134
So I want to do,

396
00:16:43,602 --> 00:16:44,970
I'm writing,

397
00:16:44,970 --> 00:16:48,307
an entire, franchise, actually, I,

398
00:16:49,575 --> 00:16:51,877
I want to do a,

399
00:16:51,877 --> 00:16:54,747
series, a mini series and, film.

400
00:16:54,747 --> 00:16:57,750
So it's sort of like a trilogy of works.

401
00:16:58,083 --> 00:17:00,185
And it's going to be a, there's

402
00:17:00,185 --> 00:17:03,989
going to be a free season, drama

403
00:17:03,989 --> 00:17:06,992
series, ten episodes.

404
00:17:08,260 --> 00:17:10,863
It will be called, resistance.

405
00:17:10,863 --> 00:17:14,933
And then between season one
and season two,

406
00:17:15,167 --> 00:17:19,505
there will be an eight episode
mini series called Revolution.

407
00:17:19,738 --> 00:17:21,273
And then when the series

408
00:17:21,273 --> 00:17:25,277
as a whole is over,
there will be a film called reclamation.

409
00:17:25,411 --> 00:17:30,082
And I'm hoping not all three
will be picked up by Netflix, so wow.

410
00:17:30,182 --> 00:17:30,682
We'll see.

411
00:17:30,682 --> 00:17:33,986
It's, it has a lot of, genres.

412
00:17:33,986 --> 00:17:35,654
It's,

413
00:17:35,654 --> 00:17:40,559
it's mostly espionage
because not everyone really likes action,

414
00:17:40,559 --> 00:17:43,429
but I think everyone can get behind a spy
thriller. Like everyone.

415
00:17:43,429 --> 00:17:45,264
Kind of like those,

416
00:17:45,264 --> 00:17:49,568
and a lot of them can be very character
developed as well, so I like that.

417
00:17:50,402 --> 00:17:52,404
But it's a it's espionage.

418
00:17:52,404 --> 00:17:56,041
It's a political drama
thriller crime thriller.

419
00:17:57,443 --> 00:17:58,377
And it

420
00:17:58,377 --> 00:18:02,581
is it, it more than anything,
it has so many,

421
00:18:03,282 --> 00:18:07,252
great characters
that I think people that are so complex.

422
00:18:07,252 --> 00:18:12,124
So and I think people are really going
to, come to love, and,

423
00:18:13,959 --> 00:18:15,427
and who's. The main character?

424
00:18:15,427 --> 00:18:17,463
Who are some character names?

425
00:18:17,463 --> 00:18:18,964
Do you have names? Yeah.

426
00:18:18,964 --> 00:18:21,900
I don't go off holding off on that.

427
00:18:21,900 --> 00:18:24,536
But, I have all episode

428
00:18:24,536 --> 00:18:27,606
modern chapter titles
I'm very excited about.

429
00:18:28,006 --> 00:18:29,975
I mean, again,
I've developed it for a year,

430
00:18:29,975 --> 00:18:33,545
so I've been ready to write it,
which I have since this year.

431
00:18:33,545 --> 00:18:36,548
And, it's,

432
00:18:37,015 --> 00:18:39,218
it is,

433
00:18:39,218 --> 00:18:42,221
I mean, it's it's it's pretty dark,
but it's,

434
00:18:42,521 --> 00:18:46,725
but it's it's going to be really hard
to watch at times, but it's going

435
00:18:46,725 --> 00:18:51,029
to be very gripping, very riveting,
very edge of your seat, very exciting.

436
00:18:51,363 --> 00:18:54,800
And I'm very confident
that it's something that

437
00:18:55,234 --> 00:18:58,470
people really haven't seen before.

438
00:18:58,470 --> 00:19:01,440
And I think it's and by the time
it comes out where it's just.

439
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:02,808
So we're all going to be meeting.

440
00:19:02,808 --> 00:19:03,976
So nice.

441
00:19:03,976 --> 00:19:05,644
I'm very excited to write it.

442
00:19:05,644 --> 00:19:08,013
And take the next steps to pursue it.

443
00:19:08,013 --> 00:19:10,315
Can you compare it
to something that has been out before?

444
00:19:10,315 --> 00:19:11,984
Is it completely different? So,

445
00:19:13,152 --> 00:19:13,819
imagine.

446
00:19:13,819 --> 00:19:17,156
So it's this is
going to sound really out of this world,

447
00:19:17,156 --> 00:19:20,159
but imagine,

448
00:19:20,425 --> 00:19:22,261
imagine Peaky Blinders.

449
00:19:22,261 --> 00:19:25,497
Yeah, The Handmaid's Tale and The girls,
the Dragon Tattoo

450
00:19:25,497 --> 00:19:30,135
all put together into one show,
and not that would be racist, I love it.

451
00:19:30,903 --> 00:19:32,037
I love Peaky Blinders.

452
00:19:32,037 --> 00:19:33,639
I've seen that girl
with the Dragon Tattoo.

453
00:19:33,639 --> 00:19:37,543
Tommy Guns, Tommy, Max
and I actually just watched

454
00:19:37,543 --> 00:19:40,546
all, 36 of people back in the.

455
00:19:40,546 --> 00:19:41,346
Day. Lots of.

456
00:19:41,346 --> 00:19:43,081
Yeah, lots of,

457
00:19:43,081 --> 00:19:45,317
I mean, I've as I've watched
all these things,

458
00:19:45,317 --> 00:19:48,754
there were various factors
that were inspiration

459
00:19:49,154 --> 00:19:52,157
that I take that I use as inspiration,

460
00:19:52,558 --> 00:19:56,528
like very small things that I'll take
and like put my own spin on it.

461
00:19:56,528 --> 00:19:58,363
I mean, filmmakers do that all the time.

462
00:19:58,363 --> 00:20:03,502
And, I'm, I'm excited to be creating
something that I find very original.

463
00:20:03,669 --> 00:20:06,271
Can you share, like a problem
or a conflict

464
00:20:06,271 --> 00:20:09,841
from one of an episode
or a movie, like a small little tidbit?

465
00:20:10,876 --> 00:20:13,879
Dangle a carrot, give us a teaser.

466
00:20:18,817 --> 00:20:20,485
Well, I'll I'll just.

467
00:20:20,485 --> 00:20:23,956
I'll confirm that the opening episode, is,

468
00:20:24,423 --> 00:20:28,227
titled, piping hot, and it refers to

469
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,197
what happens when you have rage
that's been repressed for so long

470
00:20:32,197 --> 00:20:35,867
and, like, you kind of just abandon it
and you leave it to simmer

471
00:20:35,867 --> 00:20:38,937
until it finally boils over
and something happens

472
00:20:38,937 --> 00:20:42,574
in the first episode that will,
of course, dictate the rest of the series.

473
00:20:43,675 --> 00:20:47,579
But again, it's very character driven
and a lot of that,

474
00:20:48,447 --> 00:20:50,849
a lot of that dictates

475
00:20:50,849 --> 00:20:53,852
the plot and what happens.

476
00:20:54,019 --> 00:20:58,590
But, yeah, it's it's, I'm really
I think it's going to be really.

477
00:20:58,857 --> 00:20:59,591
I'm I'm very. Confused.

478
00:20:59,591 --> 00:21:01,893
I can't wait. Just so you know,
I live in the same house.

479
00:21:01,893 --> 00:21:04,062
I helped make this guy. I love this guy.

480
00:21:04,062 --> 00:21:05,197
He hasn't let me read.

481
00:21:05,197 --> 00:21:07,666
Well, one sentence
I've learned more in the last ten minutes.

482
00:21:07,666 --> 00:21:09,901
Said as much as you have.
So that's amazing.

483
00:21:09,901 --> 00:21:12,070
A close to the vest. Max.
It sounds. Absolutely.

484
00:21:12,070 --> 00:21:13,905
I just can't. Wait to watch it.

485
00:21:13,905 --> 00:21:17,276
I will be definitely seeing this
and viewing it and sharing it and helping

486
00:21:17,276 --> 00:21:19,311
promote it. Thank you.

487
00:21:19,311 --> 00:21:22,681
Sounds like you put in a lot of effort,
hard work, a lot of thought.

488
00:21:23,215 --> 00:21:26,551
Man spends about 8 to 10 hours a day
writing upstairs.

489
00:21:26,752 --> 00:21:29,087
You know, eight. To ten hours a day.

490
00:21:29,087 --> 00:21:29,821
That's amazing.

491
00:21:31,323 --> 00:21:32,357
No. And then

492
00:21:32,357 --> 00:21:36,361
you like to focus on, oh,
I wrote this down the score.

493
00:21:36,361 --> 00:21:38,764
So is it going to have a nice music
sound to it?

494
00:21:38,764 --> 00:21:39,398
Absolutely.

495
00:21:39,398 --> 00:21:44,236
Music
is a huge part of this, of the series.

496
00:21:44,236 --> 00:21:47,239
I think that music has always been,

497
00:21:47,639 --> 00:21:49,441
very, it's

498
00:21:49,441 --> 00:21:53,545
been very effective and influential
in times of crisis especially,

499
00:21:53,545 --> 00:21:57,316
and, and, and wars and, you're going to.

500
00:21:57,316 --> 00:22:00,319
Call John Williams.

501
00:22:00,752 --> 00:22:03,021
There are certainly quite a few composers

502
00:22:03,021 --> 00:22:06,391
that I would dream
of working with one day.

503
00:22:06,992 --> 00:22:08,126
Piano.

504
00:22:08,126 --> 00:22:10,095
Yes. Oh, yeah. Course. Piano man.

505
00:22:10,095 --> 00:22:11,763
But yeah, music is definitely.

506
00:22:11,763 --> 00:22:16,168
I mean, it's it's not a musical,
obviously, but it's there's music in it

507
00:22:16,168 --> 00:22:20,072
and it's, it's very
the music is very important to the story.

508
00:22:20,072 --> 00:22:24,943
And, I definitely have some specific ideas
about the cinematography.

509
00:22:24,943 --> 00:22:27,946
I think there are going to be
a lot of there definitely going to be

510
00:22:27,946 --> 00:22:33,151
some interiors with a lot of like low
lighting, almost like a neon ish yellow,

511
00:22:34,152 --> 00:22:37,155
a lot of night cinematography.

512
00:22:37,889 --> 00:22:39,491
It's going to the first season

513
00:22:39,491 --> 00:22:43,562
takes place during the winter,
so I'm going to make use of a lot of that.

514
00:22:43,562 --> 00:22:48,166
But, no, I'm, I'm
always visualizing everything

515
00:22:48,166 --> 00:22:51,103
and thinking about what the end result
was going to look like.

516
00:22:51,103 --> 00:22:54,506
And I try to write as much of that
into the script as I can.

517
00:22:54,573 --> 00:22:54,873
Yeah.

518
00:22:54,873 --> 00:22:58,009
After reading some of your reviews,
I think you're a great writer.

519
00:22:58,009 --> 00:23:00,879
So I'm really looking forward to this.

520
00:23:00,879 --> 00:23:03,949
And every time I watch something, it, it,

521
00:23:04,683 --> 00:23:07,352
it only, inspires me further.

522
00:23:07,352 --> 00:23:10,489
I mean, again, there's
been so many great nominees this year and,

523
00:23:11,089 --> 00:23:14,793
you know, every time I, I, I'm
someone that has to rewatch things,

524
00:23:15,594 --> 00:23:18,630
just because it, it keeps, fueling me.

525
00:23:18,630 --> 00:23:21,633
So, I did nominees this year.

526
00:23:21,633 --> 00:23:26,204
I love, I have more to say about them
every time I watch them, I think not.

527
00:23:26,204 --> 00:23:30,942
So much of them are just spectacular works
that are very, very bold.

528
00:23:31,843 --> 00:23:35,213
Well, if you need someone to record,
he does music videos directly.

529
00:23:35,247 --> 00:23:36,882
Media could be your guy for the movie.

530
00:23:37,916 --> 00:23:39,317
So quick

531
00:23:39,317 --> 00:23:44,656
game if you had to eliminate one of these
score, cinematography, film editing

532
00:23:44,656 --> 00:23:47,959
or performance, which one in your eyes
is the least important?

533
00:23:48,326 --> 00:23:52,063
Well, first of all, you would never, ever,
ever eliminate a performance.

534
00:23:52,597 --> 00:23:56,134
I can't bring myself to say that
any one of them is something

535
00:23:56,134 --> 00:23:59,738
I'd eliminate,
but you do have to be compromising

536
00:23:59,738 --> 00:24:02,574
when you're making work,
when you're making art.

537
00:24:02,574 --> 00:24:05,577
So I guess if I had to

538
00:24:06,211 --> 00:24:09,181
maybe get rid of one of them.

539
00:24:10,348 --> 00:24:12,284
Probably the editing,

540
00:24:12,284 --> 00:24:16,054
because there's various,
so many ways something can be edited.

541
00:24:16,054 --> 00:24:20,258
But I when I'm
visualizing the cinematography, I can also

542
00:24:20,258 --> 00:24:26,264
kind of hear the intensity of what
I would like to score to represent.

543
00:24:26,264 --> 00:24:29,334
So I can't imagine
sacrificing those things.

544
00:24:29,334 --> 00:24:30,902
And plus I don't know how to edit.

545
00:24:30,902 --> 00:24:33,872
So I think that would be the easiest thing
to do. Yeah.

546
00:24:33,872 --> 00:24:35,073
Good answer.

547
00:24:35,073 --> 00:24:39,911
And what how long has the film credits
ticket admit? One.

548
00:24:39,911 --> 00:24:41,880
How long has that been around?

549
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,916
So my very good friend, Jimmy demurs.

550
00:24:45,150 --> 00:24:46,184
It was his idea.

551
00:24:46,184 --> 00:24:50,555
He suggested that, like,
he just kept insisting that I do it

552
00:24:50,555 --> 00:24:53,792
because, you know, when we met,
and he's so wonderful

553
00:24:53,792 --> 00:24:56,795
and was so, passionate and,

554
00:24:57,362 --> 00:25:00,432
I just kind of lose myself
and go to another place

555
00:25:00,432 --> 00:25:04,202
when I really got engaged
and talking about cinema.

556
00:25:04,202 --> 00:25:09,040
And he just really felt that, that
he was in agreement with everyone else.

557
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,342
This is something I should do.

558
00:25:10,342 --> 00:25:13,111
And I finally just decided to do it.

559
00:25:13,111 --> 00:25:17,215
So, I started in mid, like,

560
00:25:17,682 --> 00:25:23,388
the late, I think maybe October
or November of, 2018.

561
00:25:23,388 --> 00:25:26,124
And it's,
it kept me busy through Covid and,

562
00:25:27,225 --> 00:25:29,060
you know, eventually,

563
00:25:29,060 --> 00:25:31,329
I was able to get a job,

564
00:25:31,329 --> 00:25:35,734
an actual paying job, coordinating
schedules, film schedules,

565
00:25:35,734 --> 00:25:40,739
weekly film programs for Larry
Kaufman's Hotel Saket and, I,

566
00:25:40,972 --> 00:25:43,975
you know, I've been I've been lucky
that I've been able to,

567
00:25:45,010 --> 00:25:48,947
pursue something in film as I'm pursuing,
film industry.

568
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:49,848
Wow. Yeah.

569
00:25:49,848 --> 00:25:52,384
And arcs like top quality hotels.

570
00:25:52,384 --> 00:25:53,985
They have so. Beautiful.

571
00:25:53,985 --> 00:25:54,819
They're really beautiful.

572
00:25:54,819 --> 00:25:59,558
Two in Boston, two in New York,
two in Philly, two in DC, two in Miami,

573
00:25:59,558 --> 00:26:01,626
two in L.A.

574
00:26:01,626 --> 00:26:03,628
So we give the friends a Feeney discount.

575
00:26:03,628 --> 00:26:05,864
But I'm sure we can work something.

576
00:26:05,864 --> 00:26:07,232
Hey. Yeah.

577
00:26:07,232 --> 00:26:10,268
There's there's one in London,
and it's it's really cool.

578
00:26:10,268 --> 00:26:13,705
And Max, who was the actor actress
recently who had checked into

579
00:26:13,705 --> 00:26:17,809
one of the California hotels
and saw your reviews and made a comment.

580
00:26:17,809 --> 00:26:20,445
You remember Larry had sent that? Oh,

581
00:26:21,846 --> 00:26:22,681
But it was like

582
00:26:22,681 --> 00:26:26,017
a name actor or actress and said,
oh my God, you know, I don't.

583
00:26:26,017 --> 00:26:27,986
Remember exactly.

584
00:26:27,986 --> 00:26:30,989
I'm he or she, I think it was a woman,
but she she loved it.

585
00:26:31,022 --> 00:26:31,356
Yeah.

586
00:26:31,356 --> 00:26:34,359
I don't remember exactly,
but I know that the fact,

587
00:26:35,360 --> 00:26:38,163
I think in the summer of 20, 2019,

588
00:26:38,163 --> 00:26:41,166
when we went to go, state,

589
00:26:41,299 --> 00:26:43,835
and in Philadelphia, this was when,

590
00:26:43,835 --> 00:26:46,838
my brother was trying to get into Drexel,
which,

591
00:26:47,772 --> 00:26:51,042
he's grateful
he didn't go that he went somewhere else.

592
00:26:51,042 --> 00:26:53,278
But, at the time,
that's why we were there.

593
00:26:53,278 --> 00:26:56,281
And we stayed at, aka and,

594
00:26:56,815 --> 00:27:01,853
I, I remember very specifically that,
Nicole Kidman had just left.

595
00:27:01,853 --> 00:27:02,153
Oh, yeah.

596
00:27:02,153 --> 00:27:04,923
She had stayed,
I think on the floor we were at.

597
00:27:04,923 --> 00:27:07,425
Exactly. I think actually the exact suite.

598
00:27:07,425 --> 00:27:07,759
Yeah.

599
00:27:07,759 --> 00:27:09,461
Yeah, maybe Nicole and,

600
00:27:09,461 --> 00:27:12,897
Keith Urban and matter of fact,
speaking of Philly, Max goes down.

601
00:27:13,264 --> 00:27:15,600
How many times you been in five.
Philadelphia films?

602
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,603
The only year I didn't go
was during Covid, but.

603
00:27:19,170 --> 00:27:20,372
Five, 5 or 6 times.

604
00:27:20,372 --> 00:27:23,241
And he represents Arcadia.
At least five times by now.

605
00:27:23,241 --> 00:27:24,342
He's a lot of premiers.

606
00:27:24,342 --> 00:27:26,878
And tell, tell you, where did you go?

607
00:27:26,878 --> 00:27:31,483
Where did your wonderful grandmother,
my mother, who just turned 90 recently.

608
00:27:31,983 --> 00:27:33,551
Where did she take you? And you?

609
00:27:33,551 --> 00:27:36,187
It was it was, it was such a surprise.

610
00:27:36,187 --> 00:27:38,523
We went to the Venice Film Festival.

611
00:27:38,523 --> 00:27:41,793
Just Jake and I, my brother
and I saw the film, so.

612
00:27:41,793 --> 00:27:46,464
I mean, it would have been too much of
a trip for her with the, with those boats.

613
00:27:46,464 --> 00:27:51,503
But it was an amazing trip,
and it was just it was so generous of her.

614
00:27:51,503 --> 00:27:56,708
And, Venice, visually,
as truly as beautiful as you imagine it.

615
00:27:57,542 --> 00:27:57,876
Yeah.

616
00:27:59,310 --> 00:28:01,680
I don't know that I would.

617
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,350
It was really hard to forget
about how hard transportation was.

618
00:28:05,350 --> 00:28:06,651
That was that was a nightmare.

619
00:28:06,651 --> 00:28:09,554
But the actual festival was so much fun.

620
00:28:09,554 --> 00:28:14,092
And, it's
it was such a grand event, so busy.

621
00:28:14,826 --> 00:28:18,196
Everyone was so lively and excited,

622
00:28:18,196 --> 00:28:21,366
and, the other films
we saw were wonderful.

623
00:28:21,499 --> 00:28:22,133
I know I saw the

624
00:28:22,133 --> 00:28:26,071
Philly Film Festival on your review,
and I saw that you went to Venice.

625
00:28:26,171 --> 00:28:26,971
That was a question.

626
00:28:26,971 --> 00:28:28,907
Oh, God. You guys mentioned Do it.

627
00:28:28,907 --> 00:28:31,242
And then Jimmy, you met him in LA.

628
00:28:31,242 --> 00:28:34,245
I met him, in Boston in,

629
00:28:36,114 --> 00:28:38,983
December of 2017.

630
00:28:38,983 --> 00:28:41,953
My dad had run into him and,

631
00:28:41,953 --> 00:28:45,090
my, he and my mom are, such great friends.

632
00:28:45,090 --> 00:28:48,093
They been,
they went to high school together, and,

633
00:28:48,393 --> 00:28:51,563
you know, they reconnected
when we all went to dinner together

634
00:28:51,563 --> 00:28:55,366
for a year, and,
we we became friends as well.

635
00:28:55,366 --> 00:28:57,836
And, he's just a beautiful man.

636
00:28:57,836 --> 00:28:59,971
He has a beautiful singing voice.

637
00:28:59,971 --> 00:29:01,072
Phenomenal singer.

638
00:29:01,072 --> 00:29:03,041
He knows so many people.

639
00:29:03,041 --> 00:29:05,276
Very, very generous.

640
00:29:05,276 --> 00:29:08,947
And, yeah,
he's been very, influential in my life.

641
00:29:09,481 --> 00:29:10,181
There you go, Jimmy.

642
00:29:10,181 --> 00:29:12,383
We're going to tag him in this podcast.

643
00:29:12,383 --> 00:29:14,552
Hopefully he watches us.
And what about Larry?

644
00:29:14,552 --> 00:29:15,754
So our motto, be a good friend.

645
00:29:15,754 --> 00:29:18,256
Pick up trash. It's not yours.
Hold the door.

646
00:29:18,256 --> 00:29:20,725
Give a compliment.
What makes Larry a good friend?

647
00:29:24,362 --> 00:29:24,796
Or Jim?

648
00:29:24,796 --> 00:29:25,830
He does some.

649
00:29:25,830 --> 00:29:28,666
They both do so much.

650
00:29:28,666 --> 00:29:30,935
But they don't.

651
00:29:30,935 --> 00:29:32,237
They don't.

652
00:29:32,237 --> 00:29:33,872
They're they follow through.

653
00:29:33,872 --> 00:29:35,774
They're very,

654
00:29:35,774 --> 00:29:38,343
They're very reliable.

655
00:29:38,343 --> 00:29:41,346
They don't take something on
if they can't do it, they're,

656
00:29:42,413 --> 00:29:45,416
it just it feels good.

657
00:29:46,818 --> 00:29:47,452
It feels good

658
00:29:47,452 --> 00:29:50,455
to have friends
who are not flakes, basically.

659
00:29:50,455 --> 00:29:52,857
They're very, they really care.

660
00:29:52,857 --> 00:29:55,927
Really, They really care about you. And.

661
00:29:56,594 --> 00:29:57,962
Beyond sincere.

662
00:29:57,962 --> 00:30:00,865
Larry is he? I've seen him. Literally.

663
00:30:00,865 --> 00:30:01,933
He's a type of guy.

664
00:30:01,933 --> 00:30:04,936
You know, you've seen the expression
whether someone's a CEO

665
00:30:05,003 --> 00:30:08,506
or someone, you know, opening up the door
for him to warm up the building.

666
00:30:08,506 --> 00:30:09,841
I mean, it doesn't matter.

667
00:30:09,841 --> 00:30:11,876
He treats everyone the same.

668
00:30:11,876 --> 00:30:14,112
Utmost respect for everyone.

669
00:30:14,112 --> 00:30:15,613
And it's just sincere.

670
00:30:15,613 --> 00:30:18,449
He's an Eagles guy, so of course
he's excited for next week's game.

671
00:30:18,449 --> 00:30:21,352
But he be like, Eric, you know my man.

672
00:30:21,352 --> 00:30:24,222
But he he genuinely means it.

673
00:30:24,222 --> 00:30:26,858
And they're just you know
he's just such a warm person.

674
00:30:26,858 --> 00:30:28,993
And Jimmy's been very encouraging.

675
00:30:28,993 --> 00:30:32,564
And you know, there was one thing
I'll just tell you, Max, right before

676
00:30:33,064 --> 00:30:33,932
you had seen Jim,

677
00:30:34,899 --> 00:30:36,801
we left a movie at the.

678
00:30:36,801 --> 00:30:39,204
What was the old place
we used to go in Hartford all the time.

679
00:30:39,204 --> 00:30:40,205
Well. 217.

680
00:30:40,205 --> 00:30:41,372
Yeah, we left a movie.

681
00:30:41,372 --> 00:30:44,042
I forget which movie it was,
but I remember I got in the car

682
00:30:44,042 --> 00:30:47,212
with Jake and Max, and I said, hey, guys,
what would you think about the movie?

683
00:30:47,212 --> 00:30:49,180
And they both literally likes it dead.

684
00:30:49,180 --> 00:30:51,382
Don't say anything like, okay.

685
00:30:51,382 --> 00:30:53,318
And then this is kind of what they do.

686
00:30:53,318 --> 00:30:55,386
So it's about five, you know, ride home
maybe 12,

687
00:30:55,386 --> 00:30:57,889
15 minutes about five minutes in.

688
00:30:57,889 --> 00:30:59,290
The two of them start talking.

689
00:30:59,290 --> 00:31:03,661
Well it's going to get nominated
for cinematography score supporting actor.

690
00:31:03,661 --> 00:31:04,562
No, I don't think so.

691
00:31:04,562 --> 00:31:05,730
I think that, you know,

692
00:31:05,730 --> 00:31:09,367
they go through everything, not just Best
Picture like they break down movies.

693
00:31:09,367 --> 00:31:12,103
I remember saying, Max, you should
you should be a movie guy.

694
00:31:12,103 --> 00:31:13,872
You a movie critic, mom used to say.

695
00:31:13,872 --> 00:31:17,742
And then, you know, then when you mention
a gym, you he encourage you as well.

696
00:31:17,742 --> 00:31:19,344
And it says it's been a team effort.

697
00:31:19,344 --> 00:31:20,245
And we always feel

698
00:31:20,245 --> 00:31:24,048
that Jake and Max is so special to us
and to everyone that they meet.

699
00:31:24,048 --> 00:31:27,051
And it takes a village
and we're all just trying to,

700
00:31:27,185 --> 00:31:30,288
you know, raise the water level
and we're beyond proud of you.

701
00:31:30,288 --> 00:31:33,057
I cannot wait
to see your finished product. Thank you.

702
00:31:33,057 --> 00:31:33,324
Yeah.

703
00:31:33,324 --> 00:31:37,996
And that and then your site is WW
dot movie critic dot today.

704
00:31:38,630 --> 00:31:41,900
Correct the film script to film critics
ticket it's called.

705
00:31:41,900 --> 00:31:44,702
But that that is the link.
Yes. Film. Yeah.

706
00:31:44,702 --> 00:31:48,573
Where'd you think of that title
the film critics ticket admit one.

707
00:31:48,573 --> 00:31:51,175
I like that. Yes. There were,

708
00:31:53,111 --> 00:31:55,413
Well,

709
00:31:55,413 --> 00:31:57,448
Randy, Crenshaw, my,

710
00:31:57,448 --> 00:32:00,451
web designer
who I've been with from the beginning.

711
00:32:02,053 --> 00:32:04,589
I, found that, I think, and,

712
00:32:04,589 --> 00:32:07,325
she's she's been very helpful,

713
00:32:07,325 --> 00:32:10,929
managing the site,
posting everything, handling

714
00:32:10,929 --> 00:32:14,165
the Instagram, because I don't know how
to do any of that.

715
00:32:14,165 --> 00:32:17,802
So, it's, it's it's been very,

716
00:32:18,603 --> 00:32:21,639
wonderful to, work alongside

717
00:32:21,639 --> 00:32:25,476
people who know how to do so many things,
and they're very passionate.

718
00:32:25,476 --> 00:32:27,478
Another reason
all about Max, one of the few guys

719
00:32:27,478 --> 00:32:31,616
it doesn't spend his days scrolling on all
the social media doesn't need that.

720
00:32:31,783 --> 00:32:32,750
Just typing.

721
00:32:32,750 --> 00:32:35,219
Yeah, this time you type. That up
and then how do you know?

722
00:32:35,219 --> 00:32:36,554
Because you're really cute.

723
00:32:36,554 --> 00:32:38,690
It's like four minute read,
five minute read.

724
00:32:38,690 --> 00:32:39,958
And I was like, let me test.

725
00:32:39,958 --> 00:32:43,127
And you really hit. It
depends on the movie.

726
00:32:43,127 --> 00:32:45,229
It depends on
how much I have to say about it.

727
00:32:45,229 --> 00:32:46,531
I think in the beginning,

728
00:32:47,999 --> 00:32:49,267
I reviewed

729
00:32:49,267 --> 00:32:53,471
certain films that
I didn't really like that much, but I, I,

730
00:32:53,471 --> 00:32:57,642
you kind of have to when no one knows you,
you kind of have to, you know,

731
00:32:58,242 --> 00:33:01,145
think about what everyone else is,

732
00:33:01,145 --> 00:33:04,315
focusing on and then you can
choose your own stuff later.

733
00:33:04,315 --> 00:33:07,318
So I've really come to review a lot of,

734
00:33:07,652 --> 00:33:10,621
independent films. And,

735
00:33:11,622 --> 00:33:14,492
I think from,

736
00:33:14,492 --> 00:33:17,462
from, from the very,

737
00:33:17,595 --> 00:33:20,598
beginning, I just, I love the,

738
00:33:20,832 --> 00:33:23,835
I love the idea of,

739
00:33:23,901 --> 00:33:27,372
of people just
I love the originality of that

740
00:33:27,405 --> 00:33:31,142
people just making something that,
no one's ever seen before, and I,

741
00:33:31,409 --> 00:33:36,481
I feel something very original
every time I watch something new.

742
00:33:36,481 --> 00:33:42,553
I love seeing
I similar ideas, rectified in new ways.

743
00:33:42,553 --> 00:33:43,921
Yep, yep.

744
00:33:43,921 --> 00:33:47,025
And I'll tell you one, one
quick thing about Max.

745
00:33:47,358 --> 00:33:50,194
He or his brother, and his brother.

746
00:33:50,194 --> 00:33:52,897
You cannot leave a movie until you've.

747
00:33:52,897 --> 00:33:54,732
Watched the credits. The entire credits.

748
00:33:54,732 --> 00:33:56,667
They think it is beyond disrespectful.

749
00:33:56,667 --> 00:33:58,836
Just like it's. Different
if you've already.

750
00:33:58,836 --> 00:34:01,572
If you've already done it.
But the first time you're in a phase.

751
00:34:01,572 --> 00:34:04,976
That people spend 2 or 3 years,
four years of their life for your two hour

752
00:34:05,009 --> 00:34:07,979
turn to tainment,
you can watch who did it, you know,

753
00:34:07,979 --> 00:34:11,049
and they've always done like that
and been like that.

754
00:34:11,049 --> 00:34:12,450
And just as hard as your.

755
00:34:12,450 --> 00:34:14,886
Work, when you go to the movies
and you ask someone,

756
00:34:14,886 --> 00:34:16,387
what time does the movie get out,

757
00:34:16,387 --> 00:34:18,156
they're not going to tell you
when the credits start.

758
00:34:18,156 --> 00:34:20,124
They're going to tell you
when the credits are over.

759
00:34:20,124 --> 00:34:23,127
So, well, yes, we will say.

760
00:34:23,161 --> 00:34:26,497
Yeah, but they always say, I think
interesting mad respect for Marvel.

761
00:34:26,497 --> 00:34:27,698
You have to stay because

762
00:34:28,699 --> 00:34:29,067
you think.

763
00:34:29,067 --> 00:34:32,070
That's why Marvel started doing
a little clip at the end of the credits.

764
00:34:33,137 --> 00:34:35,807
Or they just want you to stay
because we have the stage.

765
00:34:35,807 --> 00:34:38,376
I mean, to the end of the credits
and they pop in a spoiler.

766
00:34:38,376 --> 00:34:41,145
I mean, I always love that feature show.

767
00:34:41,145 --> 00:34:43,614
I mean, I stay anyway,

768
00:34:43,614 --> 00:34:44,782
right? Right.

769
00:34:44,782 --> 00:34:46,217
Of course.

770
00:34:46,217 --> 00:34:49,220
I think that,

771
00:34:49,620 --> 00:34:52,323
I mean, I think not all genres of film

772
00:34:52,323 --> 00:34:55,326
have it and, to be,

773
00:34:58,196 --> 00:35:00,031
You know, technically,

774
00:35:00,031 --> 00:35:03,134
and, and visually and intellectually great

775
00:35:03,134 --> 00:35:06,137
and still be very, very engaging.

776
00:35:07,171 --> 00:35:10,508
But, I mean, I'm not going to lie,
there's a lot going on

777
00:35:10,508 --> 00:35:15,680
within the confines of the film industry
that really needs, changing.

778
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,415
There's a lot that's wrong.

779
00:35:17,415 --> 00:35:23,221
And I think that, you know, of course,
there are so many great filmmakers and up

780
00:35:23,221 --> 00:35:28,259
and coming filmmakers who are contributing
to making those necessary changes.

781
00:35:28,259 --> 00:35:30,695
But it can't all fall on us.

782
00:35:30,695 --> 00:35:34,599
I mean, audiences
share a lot of responsibility, too.

783
00:35:34,765 --> 00:35:38,870
And when they've partaken in something
for so long

784
00:35:39,470 --> 00:35:45,710
while ignoring other kinds of work
that I am confident they would,

785
00:35:47,078 --> 00:35:48,212
find something good

786
00:35:48,212 --> 00:35:52,083
to say about, you know, eventually
there comes a point where it's like

787
00:35:52,650 --> 00:35:55,319
you kind of share some responsibility
here.

788
00:35:55,319 --> 00:36:00,191
You these films aren't getting made
because you're showing the industry

789
00:36:00,291 --> 00:36:04,295
that you don't care about them,
so they're not going to invest in them,

790
00:36:04,295 --> 00:36:09,700
when in fact they are the exact stories
that should be, invested in because,

791
00:36:10,301 --> 00:36:13,304
they're they deserve
to be out in the world and they're,

792
00:36:13,971 --> 00:36:17,942
and they can be very intriguing
and very entertaining.

793
00:36:17,942 --> 00:36:21,612
I mean,
any movie can have the full package.

794
00:36:21,612 --> 00:36:26,017
It really all starts with the script,
but you need someone to believe in it.

795
00:36:26,017 --> 00:36:29,020
And I think we need more people
to believe. And,

796
00:36:29,954 --> 00:36:33,224
and the really, really great scripts
that are out there.

797
00:36:33,224 --> 00:36:36,227
You have an example of the perfect movie.

798
00:36:36,661 --> 00:36:38,162
Oh, Oh, wait, you know what?

799
00:36:38,162 --> 00:36:41,132
I was going well, actually,
what I was going to say is,

800
00:36:41,232 --> 00:36:44,001
because I again, I mostly review Indies,

801
00:36:44,001 --> 00:36:48,806
but I do think that, there
I think there was something really,

802
00:36:48,806 --> 00:36:52,410
really beautiful
that happened last, in 21st,

803
00:36:52,443 --> 00:36:55,680
20, 23 with the writers strike.

804
00:36:55,680 --> 00:37:01,652
And, what, Barbie Heimer did,
how those movies were both so,

805
00:37:02,987 --> 00:37:04,021
both mainstream,

806
00:37:04,021 --> 00:37:08,192
but both so good, and people
really, really showed up for them.

807
00:37:08,392 --> 00:37:11,262
And I love that they weren't
in competition with each other.

808
00:37:11,262 --> 00:37:15,333
Like they embraced each other
and embraced the idea that came in.

809
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:16,801
No, that's what they did.

810
00:37:16,801 --> 00:37:17,702
That's what they called that.

811
00:37:17,702 --> 00:37:20,871
And they, and they, they really.

812
00:37:20,871 --> 00:37:24,208
Is there a name for when really
two top movies come out on the same day?

813
00:37:26,244 --> 00:37:29,046
And can you recall another time
that happened.

814
00:37:29,046 --> 00:37:30,248
This year?

815
00:37:30,248 --> 00:37:30,948
They did it.

816
00:37:30,948 --> 00:37:33,951
They did it with Wicked and Gladiator two.

817
00:37:35,119 --> 00:37:37,855
But for the most part,
I think that's pretty rare.

818
00:37:37,855 --> 00:37:41,092
I mean, lots of movies
will come out on the same day.

819
00:37:41,092 --> 00:37:45,396
It's not usually so competitive,
but because both Barbie

820
00:37:45,396 --> 00:37:51,035
and Oppenheimer were both so big
and made by such, acclaimed filmmakers,

821
00:37:52,570 --> 00:37:53,671
it it was

822
00:37:53,671 --> 00:37:57,541
definitely, I mean, culturally to both
those movies really

823
00:37:57,541 --> 00:38:02,213
had an influence on this country,
and it got a lot of people passionate.

824
00:38:02,213 --> 00:38:03,748
It got a lot of people riled up.

825
00:38:03,748 --> 00:38:06,417
But, that's
what movies are supposed to do.

826
00:38:06,417 --> 00:38:08,286
So that's what stories are supposed to do.

827
00:38:08,286 --> 00:38:11,255
They're supposed to provoke.
And that's what they did.

828
00:38:11,255 --> 00:38:14,892
And what I was going to say
when you asked about the perfect movie.

829
00:38:17,194 --> 00:38:18,663
So I again,

830
00:38:18,663 --> 00:38:22,667
I don't really
I think it's rare for mainstream films to

831
00:38:23,234 --> 00:38:28,205
have such, you know, top quality,
especially at a mainstream

832
00:38:28,205 --> 00:38:31,876
movie star audiences,
flocks of audiences will show up for.

833
00:38:32,410 --> 00:38:34,312
I love the Dune movies.

834
00:38:34,312 --> 00:38:36,213
I think that they're so well shot.

835
00:38:36,213 --> 00:38:40,818
I think the writing is so
is so beautiful and powerful.

836
00:38:40,818 --> 00:38:44,922
I think that, that whole cast
ensemble is incredible.

837
00:38:44,922 --> 00:38:51,128
I love the themes, I love the music,
I love, the sound effects, the editing.

838
00:38:51,128 --> 00:38:57,735
Like it really has the entire package
and what audiences look for in a movie.

839
00:38:57,735 --> 00:38:59,003
And I think that's really rare.

840
00:38:59,003 --> 00:39:00,004
So I'm very happy

841
00:39:00,004 --> 00:39:03,441
that that's one of the movies
that are being honored by the Oscars.

842
00:39:03,441 --> 00:39:04,308
This year. Too.

843
00:39:04,308 --> 00:39:05,176
I saw it on the list.

844
00:39:05,176 --> 00:39:08,179
Yep, I watched
I saw it in the theaters many times, and,

845
00:39:08,446 --> 00:39:10,581
I'm sure that it's going to win
quite a few.

846
00:39:10,581 --> 00:39:13,651
And one thing Max likes to do
is not if he likes a movie.

847
00:39:13,751 --> 00:39:15,353
So you can tell the audience,

848
00:39:15,353 --> 00:39:19,357
how many times have you seen the recent
Timothee Chalamet movie about Bob Dylan?

849
00:39:19,390 --> 00:39:21,158
Oh, I saw that,

850
00:39:24,528 --> 00:39:27,365
Maybe for at least free by now, but,

851
00:39:27,365 --> 00:39:32,103
I, I really enjoyed the theater
and it's very rewatchable.

852
00:39:32,103 --> 00:39:34,105
It's,

853
00:39:34,105 --> 00:39:37,108
I mean, I, you know,
everyone is talking about,

854
00:39:37,141 --> 00:39:41,979
Timothy's performance as they said,
he was great, but I was just so sucked

855
00:39:41,979 --> 00:39:45,883
in by Edward Norton
because he is so not that character.

856
00:39:46,183 --> 00:39:47,585
And really.

857
00:39:47,585 --> 00:39:48,285
I like. Him a lot.

858
00:39:48,285 --> 00:39:51,288
He really becomes this,

859
00:39:51,989 --> 00:39:53,591
he, Pete Seeger,

860
00:39:53,591 --> 00:39:56,594
he he really becomes ham and,

861
00:39:56,861 --> 00:40:00,998
he he I said,
I sent a text to Jimmy to actually.

862
00:40:00,998 --> 00:40:02,533
And I'm like, this is what he is.

863
00:40:02,533 --> 00:40:06,470
So you and this movie and, he,
you know, he laughs and he's like,

864
00:40:06,537 --> 00:40:07,805
yeah, I'm totally like that.

865
00:40:07,805 --> 00:40:12,810
But, yeah, we had
a, I always try and have a great time

866
00:40:12,810 --> 00:40:17,982
at the theater and synopsis and,
I hope I'm pronouncing that right.

867
00:40:17,982 --> 00:40:19,950
And West Hartford and loop back square.

868
00:40:20,985 --> 00:40:22,887
Dave really,

869
00:40:22,887 --> 00:40:26,123
cleaned up since Covid and made something
so beautiful.

870
00:40:26,624 --> 00:40:29,160
Recliner seats, the surface.

871
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,797
Even they're trying to get more endings
in there.

872
00:40:32,797 --> 00:40:34,999
Like, it's a really good feature.

873
00:40:34,999 --> 00:40:38,702
And, I hope the community continues
to go and enjoy it.

874
00:40:38,702 --> 00:40:40,171
Everyone really seems to love it.

875
00:40:40,171 --> 00:40:42,106
And just one last thing, Max.

876
00:40:42,106 --> 00:40:45,142
Next Christmas, this coming
Christmas, Timothy.

877
00:40:45,142 --> 00:40:45,543
Shalom.

878
00:40:45,543 --> 00:40:49,346
He's in a movie with a possibles
with someone that you know very well.

879
00:40:49,346 --> 00:40:50,014
Yes I. Do.

880
00:40:50,014 --> 00:40:52,450
Can you just tell the audience briefly
what's going on there?

881
00:40:52,450 --> 00:40:53,384
My brother Jake.

882
00:40:53,384 --> 00:40:54,952
Your twin brother Jake. Yes.

883
00:40:54,952 --> 00:40:57,955
He's, he's a extra in the movie one.

884
00:40:58,022 --> 00:40:58,622
He lives.

885
00:40:58,622 --> 00:41:01,625
He moved to New York,

886
00:41:01,659 --> 00:41:04,662
last year, I think it was. And,

887
00:41:05,396 --> 00:41:09,733
he was approached on the street,
said he had a very specific look, and,

888
00:41:10,301 --> 00:41:13,804
he is in a scene, in a bar

889
00:41:13,804 --> 00:41:17,908
with Timothy and a bunch of other guys,
non non-speaking part.

890
00:41:17,908 --> 00:41:20,377
So he's not part of the s. No, but it's.

891
00:41:20,377 --> 00:41:22,112
Something, but it's nice.

892
00:41:22,112 --> 00:41:23,314
It's it's just nice.

893
00:41:23,314 --> 00:41:26,317
And he got a paycheck
and I framed it form and,

894
00:41:26,484 --> 00:41:29,186
Yeah, it would be fun to see, our son
on the big screen.

895
00:41:29,186 --> 00:41:31,489
Yeah. And it's an 824 film. And they.

896
00:41:31,489 --> 00:41:32,723
I love everything they do.

897
00:41:32,723 --> 00:41:36,026
So we're very excited for him
for congratulations.

898
00:41:36,060 --> 00:41:38,295
They thought that Jake looked
like someone from the 50s.

899
00:41:38,295 --> 00:41:39,930
So I said, does that mean your mother

900
00:41:39,930 --> 00:41:42,700
and your father
look like someone from the 20s? You know?

901
00:41:42,700 --> 00:41:43,868
So anyway.

902
00:41:43,868 --> 00:41:46,871
Oh, so based on your reviews,
you have so many.

903
00:41:46,971 --> 00:41:49,840
Seems like you do one once
a month or twice a month.

904
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:51,675
Usually I'll do twice a month.

905
00:41:51,675 --> 00:41:54,245
Since I've started writing,
I need to focus.

906
00:41:54,245 --> 00:41:56,680
I dedicate at least one review a month.

907
00:42:02,786 --> 00:42:03,487
January.

908
00:42:03,487 --> 00:42:05,256
What was January's?

909
00:42:05,256 --> 00:42:07,625
January 6th. Na for tudo.

910
00:42:07,625 --> 00:42:09,026
Nozpheratu. Yeah.

911
00:42:09,026 --> 00:42:11,962
I, it laid out was stunning, and,

912
00:42:11,962 --> 00:42:14,565
it was so genuinely frightening.

913
00:42:14,565 --> 00:42:17,535
It takes a lot to frighten me.
Because it's a horror movie.

914
00:42:17,535 --> 00:42:17,935
It is.

915
00:42:17,935 --> 00:42:19,103
My brother and I both have

916
00:42:19,103 --> 00:42:23,507
a very dark sense of humor,
so it takes a lot to truly haunt us.

917
00:42:23,507 --> 00:42:26,710
It was very,
I think tone is very important

918
00:42:26,710 --> 00:42:29,947
in a film, you know, very quiet,
very icy, very chilly.

919
00:42:29,947 --> 00:42:31,849
This movie was definitely not.

920
00:42:31,849 --> 00:42:34,485
And it's nominated for four Oscars
as well.

921
00:42:34,485 --> 00:42:38,222
I'm glad to know that you do, Indies,
because I did not know any movies up

922
00:42:38,222 --> 00:42:41,759
until we got to Oppenheimer and Barbie
the Whale King.

923
00:42:41,759 --> 00:42:44,762
Richard oh my God was incredible.

924
00:42:44,795 --> 00:42:46,530
I didn't see it, but I recognize it.

925
00:42:46,530 --> 00:42:48,599
But there's like your most recent one.

926
00:42:48,599 --> 00:42:50,234
Well, let's play a game first. Okay.

927
00:42:50,234 --> 00:42:53,237
The game is called for your
your movie reviews.

928
00:42:53,671 --> 00:42:56,206
Your first one, your last one,

929
00:42:57,274 --> 00:42:59,743
your best one and your worst one.

930
00:42:59,743 --> 00:43:01,712
First or last best, worst.

931
00:43:01,712 --> 00:43:03,347
Your first review.

932
00:43:03,347 --> 00:43:05,649
Last review was a real pain. Yeah.

933
00:43:05,649 --> 00:43:06,750
Give me a hint.

934
00:43:06,750 --> 00:43:07,685
My first review.

935
00:43:07,685 --> 00:43:10,287
I think my first review was Green
Book in 2018.

936
00:43:10,287 --> 00:43:12,690
I think that was my first. Okay.

937
00:43:12,690 --> 00:43:13,524
My best.

938
00:43:13,524 --> 00:43:16,193
That's a movie we had seen. Yes.

939
00:43:16,193 --> 00:43:17,761
Is that the driver?
And they're going around?

940
00:43:17,761 --> 00:43:19,830
It's a. True story.

941
00:43:19,830 --> 00:43:20,564
Yeah, I want to.

942
00:43:20,564 --> 00:43:23,567
See that one I've been seeing.

943
00:43:23,767 --> 00:43:24,902
My best review.

944
00:43:24,902 --> 00:43:27,871
Oh, wow.

945
00:43:28,472 --> 00:43:30,708
It's like picking your favorite kid.

946
00:43:30,708 --> 00:43:32,710
It is.

947
00:43:32,710 --> 00:43:34,578
Oh, he probably got his mom on that.

948
00:43:34,578 --> 00:43:36,146
Well, the thing is, is that I.

949
00:43:36,146 --> 00:43:40,451
I get so, riled up when, In a good way.

950
00:43:40,918 --> 00:43:45,589
When I'm writing a review,
when I write a script, I'm.

951
00:43:45,589 --> 00:43:47,858
I'm very much focused and taking my time

952
00:43:47,858 --> 00:43:50,861
when I'm writing a script,
it's like I have to get it out there.

953
00:43:50,894 --> 00:43:56,200
So sometimes if you see a couple typos
like, that's, that is a mistake.

954
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,369
Who's your favorite twin
out of your two girls? Right.

955
00:43:59,670 --> 00:44:01,271
Oh. Shot twins.

956
00:44:01,271 --> 00:44:03,207
Father of twins. Exactly.

957
00:44:03,207 --> 00:44:07,778
But but again, I'm
I'm just I'm very excited for March 2nd.

958
00:44:07,778 --> 00:44:09,613
I think the films this year were great.

959
00:44:09,613 --> 00:44:12,282
And I'm excited to see them all
celebrate it.

960
00:44:12,282 --> 00:44:13,484
All right. Speaking about, let's do it.

961
00:44:13,484 --> 00:44:15,085
Let's do some predictions. Yes.

962
00:44:15,085 --> 00:44:18,022
Do your nominees. We'll hold you to it.
We're going to keep a count.

963
00:44:18,022 --> 00:44:20,157
Yeah. Keep you accountable.

964
00:44:20,157 --> 00:44:22,159
Oh Stephanie, do you have a pen?

965
00:44:22,159 --> 00:44:24,862
A teacher doesn't have a pen.
Oh, here you go.

966
00:44:24,862 --> 00:44:26,163
The same pen I had last time.

967
00:44:26,163 --> 00:44:29,033
Everyone gets an A in his class. Yeah.
So do March 2nd.

968
00:44:29,033 --> 00:44:31,802
Do I say to as I'm doing number March 2nd.

969
00:44:31,802 --> 00:44:33,504
You make the rules.
Whatever you want to do.

970
00:44:33,504 --> 00:44:35,339
March 2nd, 7 to 10.

971
00:44:35,339 --> 00:44:37,441
This is the 97th Academy Awards.

972
00:44:37,441 --> 00:44:39,476
I have the nominee ballot right here.

973
00:44:39,476 --> 00:44:41,011
They're in columns. Okay.

974
00:44:42,312 --> 00:44:43,047
Best picture.

975
00:44:43,047 --> 00:44:44,281
Who do you think's getting best picture?

976
00:44:44,281 --> 00:44:45,749
I do think the brutal Oscar win

977
00:44:45,749 --> 00:44:48,819
Best Picture as it showed
it was absolutely wonderful.

978
00:44:49,053 --> 00:44:52,189
It's my personal second
favorite film of the year.

979
00:44:52,756 --> 00:44:54,158
A Nora was my first.

980
00:44:54,158 --> 00:44:57,161
But I do think the brutalist
will end up winning.

981
00:44:58,862 --> 00:44:59,763
I like Adrien Brody.

982
00:44:59,763 --> 00:45:00,798
He was in Peaky Blinders.

983
00:45:00,798 --> 00:45:03,033
Yeah, he played the Godfather character.

984
00:45:03,033 --> 00:45:03,801
In the movie.

985
00:45:03,801 --> 00:45:08,105
And, it you you just you never see that

986
00:45:08,105 --> 00:45:11,108
kind of,

987
00:45:12,276 --> 00:45:13,410
Did that

988
00:45:13,410 --> 00:45:17,347
storyline
just so ripped apart and injected with

989
00:45:17,881 --> 00:45:21,285
with with realism, like, you see, movies

990
00:45:21,285 --> 00:45:26,323
that deal with the Holocaust always like
it's always an idea of it, but rarely

991
00:45:26,323 --> 00:45:30,094
do you really try to make it as real
as it must have been.

992
00:45:30,094 --> 00:45:31,295
And I think that this,

993
00:45:33,163 --> 00:45:33,997
Brady at the

994
00:45:33,997 --> 00:45:37,201
director, really touched that,
How many times I've.

995
00:45:37,201 --> 00:45:39,036
You've seen this one? Twice.

996
00:45:39,036 --> 00:45:41,839
I saw it once with my mom last week,
I think it was.

997
00:45:41,839 --> 00:45:44,842
And then I saw it,
when it premiered at Venice.

998
00:45:44,875 --> 00:45:45,743
And it was.

999
00:45:45,743 --> 00:45:49,780
And, I loved that
the movie has an intermission.

1000
00:45:50,114 --> 00:45:52,382
Like, it's so long.
It needs an intermission.

1001
00:45:52,382 --> 00:45:54,585
I mean. Movie, they really let
you leave the theater and come back?

1002
00:45:54,585 --> 00:45:57,221
Movies used to have traditions. And.

1003
00:45:57,221 --> 00:45:58,155
I got to. Know.

1004
00:45:58,155 --> 00:46:03,293
And one of the things that, that really
needs changing on the audience's

1005
00:46:03,293 --> 00:46:06,330
part is they got to stop complaining
about the runtime.

1006
00:46:06,497 --> 00:46:07,598
Movies.

1007
00:46:07,598 --> 00:46:09,166
Some movies really do.

1008
00:46:09,166 --> 00:46:10,434
They really do need that.

1009
00:46:10,434 --> 00:46:12,903
And you need to focus.
You need to sit still.

1010
00:46:12,903 --> 00:46:14,371
You can't be a child about it.

1011
00:46:14,371 --> 00:46:16,373
And so they going, right.

1012
00:46:16,373 --> 00:46:19,042
And I heard that about Oppenheimer
a little long.

1013
00:46:19,042 --> 00:46:20,544
I haven't seen that one yet.
I've been. Harmed.

1014
00:46:20,544 --> 00:46:23,847
It was three hours and by the time
it ended, I hardly noticed.

1015
00:46:23,847 --> 00:46:26,817
Oh, wow. Good to know. But,
How long is the brutalist?

1016
00:46:26,817 --> 00:46:30,521
The brutalist is, a little bit longer.

1017
00:46:30,521 --> 00:46:31,889
It is.

1018
00:46:31,889 --> 00:46:35,793
And three hours and 35 minutes.

1019
00:46:35,793 --> 00:46:37,795
I think it is nice.

1020
00:46:37,795 --> 00:46:40,497
And that includes the intermission
now. So.

1021
00:46:40,497 --> 00:46:44,535
And which I think was maybe 15,
20 minutes.

1022
00:46:45,202 --> 00:46:45,469
All right.

1023
00:46:45,469 --> 00:46:46,670
We got 22 categories.

1024
00:46:46,670 --> 00:46:49,406
So we're going to have to do fire away
okay. No problem.

1025
00:46:49,406 --> 00:46:51,842
Directing directing pretty carpet.

1026
00:46:51,842 --> 00:46:53,777
Well when. Brutalist. Yeah.

1027
00:46:54,845 --> 00:46:56,246
Do you
want to, do you want to go down the list.

1028
00:46:56,246 --> 00:46:58,749
Do you want me to announce him?

1029
00:46:58,749 --> 00:46:59,683
He new kind of you.

1030
00:46:59,683 --> 00:47:02,586
No no no no no. You can.

1031
00:47:02,586 --> 00:47:04,221
Attract actor.

1032
00:47:04,221 --> 00:47:07,224
Actress. Well, in leading role,

1033
00:47:07,591 --> 00:47:09,726
actress in the leading role.

1034
00:47:09,726 --> 00:47:12,529
So we got wicked, right?

1035
00:47:12,529 --> 00:47:14,031
Amelia and Nora.

1036
00:47:14,031 --> 00:47:15,132
The substance.

1037
00:47:15,132 --> 00:47:15,933
I'm still here.

1038
00:47:15,933 --> 00:47:19,436
So, I think Fernando Torres will win for.

1039
00:47:19,436 --> 00:47:20,170
I'm still here.

1040
00:47:20,170 --> 00:47:22,739
I think that she's going to be
the surprise one of the night.

1041
00:47:22,739 --> 00:47:25,509
I think every year there's like,
one surprise when.

1042
00:47:25,509 --> 00:47:28,812
And I think, it's really between her
and Demi Moore.

1043
00:47:29,446 --> 00:47:32,115
But I do think that it will be, Fernando.

1044
00:47:32,115 --> 00:47:37,988
My personal choice would be Mikey Madison,
because I thought she was phenomenal.

1045
00:47:37,988 --> 00:47:40,924
But, I'm happy for, Fernando.

1046
00:47:40,924 --> 00:47:42,259
I think she really,

1047
00:47:43,260 --> 00:47:44,761
she she was wonderful, too.

1048
00:47:44,761 --> 00:47:45,562
So. Yeah.

1049
00:47:45,562 --> 00:47:46,797
So very good. Actor.

1050
00:47:46,797 --> 00:47:49,800
And why are you
and why you want to say Timothee.

1051
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:54,872
No act, no actor will be Adrien Brody
as he should be of her performance by,

1052
00:47:55,873 --> 00:48:00,043
Amanda Sear
even comes close to that level of majesty.

1053
00:48:00,043 --> 00:48:02,613
He was sensational.

1054
00:48:02,613 --> 00:48:04,915
Actress in supporting role.

1055
00:48:04,915 --> 00:48:07,918
I think Zoe
Saldana will win for Amelia Perez.

1056
00:48:08,185 --> 00:48:11,688
She she was very, very, lovely. She.

1057
00:48:12,022 --> 00:48:14,892
It's a very physical, moving performance.

1058
00:48:14,892 --> 00:48:18,061
She's just a way
she uses her body language.

1059
00:48:18,061 --> 00:48:18,395
So I'm here.

1060
00:48:18,395 --> 00:48:20,430
An aerial ground you got has a shot.

1061
00:48:20,430 --> 00:48:22,733
She might. I'm not sure.

1062
00:48:22,733 --> 00:48:24,601
But we'll we'll certainly see.

1063
00:48:24,601 --> 00:48:26,403
Actor in supporting role.

1064
00:48:26,403 --> 00:48:28,138
Kieran Culkin for a real pain.

1065
00:48:28,138 --> 00:48:31,575
He was really funny and, very touching.

1066
00:48:32,376 --> 00:48:32,910
You know?

1067
00:48:32,910 --> 00:48:33,510
Fun fact.

1068
00:48:33,510 --> 00:48:34,878
That's Macaulay Culkin, brother.

1069
00:48:34,878 --> 00:48:36,613
Did you know that? Yes.

1070
00:48:36,613 --> 00:48:38,815
I'm teasing,
of course. Yeah. Big success and fan.

1071
00:48:39,983 --> 00:48:42,586
Writing original screenplay.

1072
00:48:42,586 --> 00:48:43,954
I'm going to go with a Nora.

1073
00:48:43,954 --> 00:48:47,724
Only because this is the one category
where I truly have

1074
00:48:47,724 --> 00:48:50,060
no idea what's going to win.

1075
00:48:50,060 --> 00:48:52,262
And I really want a Nora to win something.

1076
00:48:52,262 --> 00:48:54,031
So I'm going to go with a Nora.

1077
00:48:54,031 --> 00:48:56,433
Writing adapted screenplay.

1078
00:48:56,433 --> 00:48:57,834
Conclave.

1079
00:48:57,834 --> 00:49:00,837
We're going to fire away
international feature film.

1080
00:49:02,706 --> 00:49:04,808
We got I'm Still Here, Brazil.

1081
00:49:04,808 --> 00:49:06,343
The girl, the needle, Denmark.

1082
00:49:06,343 --> 00:49:08,745
Amelia Perez, France.

1083
00:49:08,745 --> 00:49:10,213
The seat of the sacred fig.

1084
00:49:10,213 --> 00:49:12,649
Germany. Flow.
I think I'm here. As well, but.

1085
00:49:12,649 --> 00:49:13,951
And it was very popular.

1086
00:49:13,951 --> 00:49:15,652
I would go with the seat of the.

1087
00:49:15,652 --> 00:49:18,455
Now, is that where the story takes place
or was written from?

1088
00:49:18,455 --> 00:49:20,257
It was written from France.

1089
00:49:20,257 --> 00:49:22,259
It takes place in, Mexico.

1090
00:49:22,259 --> 00:49:25,362
Good enough
under that animated feature film.

1091
00:49:26,530 --> 00:49:27,064
Flow.

1092
00:49:29,166 --> 00:49:31,368
Cinematography.

1093
00:49:31,368 --> 00:49:32,769
Dune part two.

1094
00:49:32,769 --> 00:49:34,504
I do, I curse.

1095
00:49:34,504 --> 00:49:35,372
That was my guess for you.

1096
00:49:35,372 --> 00:49:38,241
Well, I, I do, yeah.

1097
00:49:38,241 --> 00:49:39,943
The brutalist dune.

1098
00:49:39,943 --> 00:49:42,379
Amelia Perez, Amelia Perez a lot.

1099
00:49:42,379 --> 00:49:44,715
Marla. Knots for. Two.

1100
00:49:44,715 --> 00:49:46,016
Nosferatu.

1101
00:49:46,016 --> 00:49:47,718
My personal choice.

1102
00:49:47,718 --> 00:49:50,721
What I would choose is Dune part two.

1103
00:49:50,954 --> 00:49:53,523
I think it has a shot at winning.

1104
00:49:53,523 --> 00:49:55,292
I think it is going to be the brutalist.

1105
00:49:55,292 --> 00:49:58,562
Actually, there was a very, very unique
the way that was shot.

1106
00:49:58,762 --> 00:50:02,299
I think that's going to be
another surprise when production design.

1107
00:50:04,067 --> 00:50:05,102
Dune part two.

1108
00:50:05,102 --> 00:50:07,804
I cannot believe they built that shot.
It looked so real.

1109
00:50:07,804 --> 00:50:10,741
And it was the architecture was so.

1110
00:50:10,741 --> 00:50:13,143
Yeah, I. Music.

1111
00:50:13,143 --> 00:50:14,611
Music.

1112
00:50:14,611 --> 00:50:15,779
Brutalist. Concave.

1113
00:50:15,779 --> 00:50:18,782
Amelia, wicked wild robot.

1114
00:50:19,516 --> 00:50:21,818
The brutalist.

1115
00:50:21,818 --> 00:50:22,886
I only know John Williams.

1116
00:50:22,886 --> 00:50:24,488
The John Williams. Do any of these?

1117
00:50:24,488 --> 00:50:27,424
I don't think so. Music. Original song.

1118
00:50:28,759 --> 00:50:31,762
Oh, it's one of the ones for Amelia Perez.

1119
00:50:32,796 --> 00:50:33,263
It's not.

1120
00:50:33,263 --> 00:50:35,098
Elmo. That one.

1121
00:50:35,098 --> 00:50:37,934
Yeah. The bad sing. Sing.
What's that movie?

1122
00:50:37,934 --> 00:50:40,237
It's about the prison.
I want to see that. That was.

1123
00:50:40,237 --> 00:50:42,039
I saw that
while I was doing some research.

1124
00:50:42,039 --> 00:50:43,373
That one will.

1125
00:50:43,373 --> 00:50:45,776
That was really. Rough film editing.

1126
00:50:45,776 --> 00:50:49,112
I did not see sing, sing and features,
because I hadn't.

1127
00:50:49,112 --> 00:50:50,414
I was out of Boston.

1128
00:50:50,414 --> 00:50:50,881
But what about you?

1129
00:50:50,881 --> 00:50:53,450
Got Elton John's up here too late.

1130
00:50:53,450 --> 00:50:54,251
He's already got it.

1131
00:50:54,251 --> 00:50:56,453
You got that won't win back.

1132
00:50:56,453 --> 00:50:57,988
Film, editing, film.

1133
00:50:57,988 --> 00:50:59,389
How to do a normal.

1134
00:50:59,389 --> 00:51:01,158
Press,
I think. Will, when film editing or.

1135
00:51:01,158 --> 00:51:04,161
The cleaning up document tree.

1136
00:51:06,396 --> 00:51:07,597
Black box diaries.

1137
00:51:07,597 --> 00:51:08,432
No other land.

1138
00:51:08,432 --> 00:51:11,435
Porcelain war soundtrack to a group

1139
00:51:11,535 --> 00:51:14,538
coop did to sugar cane.

1140
00:51:15,272 --> 00:51:17,140
What was the first one?

1141
00:51:17,140 --> 00:51:18,608
Porcelain war.

1142
00:51:18,608 --> 00:51:20,277
Probably diet, I think.

1143
00:51:20,277 --> 00:51:22,546
All right. Costume design.

1144
00:51:22,546 --> 00:51:27,184
Oh, Wicked nozpheratu Gladiator two.

1145
00:51:27,217 --> 00:51:30,487
Can't believe the complete unknown sprite.

1146
00:51:31,788 --> 00:51:33,123
Probably wicked.

1147
00:51:33,123 --> 00:51:36,126
I would go with Nosferatu,
but I think wicked.

1148
00:51:37,527 --> 00:51:38,829
Oh, what's the boss calling me?

1149
00:51:38,829 --> 00:51:40,530
Sorry. No sound.

1150
00:51:40,530 --> 00:51:43,400
Oh, wait, I skipped one. Makeup.

1151
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:45,001
Makeup?

1152
00:51:45,001 --> 00:51:48,004
Makeup will definitely be wicked.

1153
00:51:50,340 --> 00:51:50,874
Makeup?

1154
00:51:50,874 --> 00:51:53,710
Wicked? Yeah,
there's a lot of makeup in that sound.

1155
00:51:53,710 --> 00:51:55,779
Oh, it sounds great.

1156
00:51:55,779 --> 00:51:57,581
Sounds into substance.

1157
00:51:57,581 --> 00:52:00,016
Nominated for makeup?

1158
00:52:00,016 --> 00:52:00,951
Yes. It'll.

1159
00:52:00,951 --> 00:52:02,619
It's going to out a substance.

1160
00:52:02,619 --> 00:52:04,721
Without question. I totally forgot.

1161
00:52:04,721 --> 00:52:06,089
That. Demi Moore.

1162
00:52:06,089 --> 00:52:07,057
Yeah. What's over her face?

1163
00:52:07,057 --> 00:52:11,394
And Demi Moore, like, she had the
the picture, her eye, the makeup.

1164
00:52:11,394 --> 00:52:13,930
Yeah, that was crazy makeup.

1165
00:52:13,930 --> 00:52:17,501
It's body horror,
which always requires that kind of level.

1166
00:52:17,501 --> 00:52:19,269
Like they had an entire makeup team.

1167
00:52:19,269 --> 00:52:21,638
I mean, you can't just do this
with a few people.

1168
00:52:21,638 --> 00:52:24,241
Yeah,
I think they'll get it. Sound, sound.

1169
00:52:24,241 --> 00:52:26,276
Complete. Unknown. Dune part two.

1170
00:52:26,276 --> 00:52:29,279
Amelia. Again. Wicked. The wild robot.

1171
00:52:29,446 --> 00:52:32,883
The wild robot for many a year.

1172
00:52:34,584 --> 00:52:36,086
Remind me what the first one was.

1173
00:52:36,086 --> 00:52:37,387
The complete unknown.

1174
00:52:37,387 --> 00:52:38,522
Complete unknown.

1175
00:52:38,522 --> 00:52:39,356
I think it's going to.

1176
00:52:39,356 --> 00:52:40,891
Went a sound right?

1177
00:52:40,891 --> 00:52:41,558
Sounds.

1178
00:52:41,558 --> 00:52:42,459
It's about Bob. Dylan.

1179
00:52:42,459 --> 00:52:44,895
I want to win at least something.

1180
00:52:44,895 --> 00:52:47,898
Visual effects student part two.

1181
00:52:48,064 --> 00:52:50,066
Live action short.

1182
00:52:50,066 --> 00:52:52,269
Oh, Alien.

1183
00:52:52,269 --> 00:52:53,036
I'm not a robot.

1184
00:52:53,036 --> 00:52:54,437
The the last ranger.

1185
00:52:54,437 --> 00:52:56,039
A man who could not remain silent.

1186
00:52:56,039 --> 00:52:57,374
Who could not remain silent.

1187
00:52:57,374 --> 00:52:59,442
Documentary. Short film.

1188
00:52:59,442 --> 00:53:00,343
Death by numbers.

1189
00:53:00,343 --> 00:53:02,612
I'm ready. Jeff, by numbers.

1190
00:53:02,612 --> 00:53:04,080
Have you seen it?

1191
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,650
I've seen interviews about it on.

1192
00:53:06,650 --> 00:53:07,317
It's a it's.

1193
00:53:07,317 --> 00:53:10,320
They're short films,
like they'll play at film festivals.

1194
00:53:10,487 --> 00:53:11,588
I was supposed to see it,

1195
00:53:11,588 --> 00:53:15,692
actually, in Philadelphia,
but it cut too close for number time.

1196
00:53:15,892 --> 00:53:17,027
But it looks wonderful.

1197
00:53:17,027 --> 00:53:19,329
Animated, short, beautiful men.

1198
00:53:19,329 --> 00:53:21,064
Shadow of Cyprus.

1199
00:53:21,064 --> 00:53:22,532
Shadow of Cyprus.

1200
00:53:22,532 --> 00:53:25,168
Candles.
Wander to wander. Yuk! There we go.

1201
00:53:26,636 --> 00:53:27,003
All right.

1202
00:53:27,003 --> 00:53:27,737
We will see.

1203
00:53:27,737 --> 00:53:28,838
We will. See.

1204
00:53:28,838 --> 00:53:32,042
Last year, I think Max was 22 out of 25.

1205
00:53:32,142 --> 00:53:32,876
I'm not mistaken.

1206
00:53:32,876 --> 00:53:34,044
I think he only missed 2 or 3.

1207
00:53:34,044 --> 00:53:37,981
23456789 ten 1112 1314

This is Max's Super Bowl.

We're here with Max.

1215
00:53:50,293 --> 00:53:53,330
This is episode
127 of Feeney Talks with friends.

1216
00:53:53,663 --> 00:53:56,866
Max runs the film critics ticket.

1217
00:53:57,467 --> 00:53:58,802
Omit one.

1218
00:53:58,802 --> 00:54:00,870

00:54:00,870 --> 00:54:02,606
Thank you. Oh.

1220
00:54:02,606 --> 00:54:04,174
Oh, quickly.

1221
00:54:04,174 --> 00:54:07,177
Let's just do most Oscars won by a movie.

1222
00:54:07,444 --> 00:54:08,745
Oh, okay.

1223
00:54:08,745 --> 00:54:09,179
Let me see.

1224
00:54:09,179 --> 00:54:10,880
This is now some Oscar trivia.

1225
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:13,083
So this was a tie?

1226
00:54:13,083 --> 00:54:15,785
It was? Yeah, it was all about Eve.

1227
00:54:15,785 --> 00:54:18,121

1228

All 11. Yes.

1231
00:54:26,229 --> 00:54:28,832
Most Oscars won by a musical.

1232
00:54:28,832 --> 00:54:31,268
Oh, La La land, was it?

1233
00:54:31,268 --> 00:54:33,670
And it. Should be.
This is West Side Story.

1234
00:54:33,670 --> 00:54:35,238
This could be an older.

1235
00:54:35,238 --> 00:54:38,241
Oh, probably. This could be old. Probably.

1236
00:54:38,408 --> 00:54:41,444
Who was the youngest to ever win an Oscar?

1237
00:54:41,945 --> 00:54:44,547
Oh, it was in 1974.

1238
00:54:44,547 --> 00:54:47,550
1970. Paper moon. Tatum O'Neal. Tatum.

1239
00:54:47,584 --> 00:54:48,818
Very good. Yeah.

1240
00:54:48,818 --> 00:54:51,054
She was like 8 or 9, I think ten.

1241
00:54:51,054 --> 00:54:54,991
Okay, who refused his Oscar for best actor
in 1973?

1242
00:54:56,526 --> 00:54:59,396
Oh, it could have been a number of people.

1243
00:54:59,396 --> 00:55:01,197
It's for the got the Godfather.

1244
00:55:01,197 --> 00:55:04,200
Oh, it couldn't have been De Niro.

1245
00:55:04,701 --> 00:55:07,203
Nope. Who played the Godfather?

1246
00:55:07,203 --> 00:55:10,874
Oh, Whoever sets up the meeting.

1247
00:55:11,574 --> 00:55:13,710
That's the day of my daughter's wedding.

1248
00:55:13,710 --> 00:55:16,413
Marlon Brando, but Marlon Brando.

1249
00:55:17,981 --> 00:55:20,250
Oh. Oh,

1251
00:55:20,884 --> 00:55:23,320
What is the Oscar statuette look like?

1252
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:27,223
It is a night that is gold,
and it's standing on a roll of film.

1253
00:55:27,924 --> 00:55:29,559
What's he holding?

1254
00:55:29,559 --> 00:55:31,628
Sword. I'm very good.

1255
00:55:31,628 --> 00:55:34,631
Who has the most Oscars of all time?

1256
00:55:35,031 --> 00:55:38,301
Oh, I think John Williams.

1257
00:55:38,768 --> 00:55:41,771
I think this is Walt Disney 26.

1258
00:55:42,572 --> 00:55:43,273
Oh, I just.

1259
00:55:43,273 --> 00:55:45,241
Say, I think John Williams was right
under.

1260
00:55:45,241 --> 00:55:47,944
That. Hey,
Google, check that. Yeah, right.

1261
00:55:47,944 --> 00:55:49,412
And I know these are kind of late.

1262
00:55:49,412 --> 00:55:52,415
Yeah. All right,
we got a couple more here.

1263
00:55:52,615 --> 00:55:53,783
All right? And.

1264
00:55:53,783 --> 00:55:56,853
All right,
we're going to set a timer over and under.

1265
00:55:57,187 --> 00:56:03,326
You're gonna have 20s to name as many
Oscar Best Picture winners as you can.

1266
00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:05,595
Okay.

1267
00:56:05,595 --> 00:56:07,797
You can go out of order. Okay. Yeah.

1268
00:56:07,797 --> 00:56:09,399
Can I start?

1269
00:56:09,399 --> 00:56:11,668
No, hold on a second. Hold those.
Are you ready?

1270
00:56:11,668 --> 00:56:12,635
I'm ready.

1271
00:56:12,635 --> 00:56:13,169
So hold on.

1272
00:56:13,169 --> 00:56:16,339
Just so these are just the best movies

1275
00:56:19,809 --> 00:56:21,044
You want 20s or 30?

1276
00:56:21,044 --> 00:56:23,613
Because there's. A lot. Yeah.
Let's give you a third.

1277
00:56:23,613 --> 00:56:25,648
You're going to give them the year two.

1278
00:56:25,648 --> 00:56:27,751
No, no. Okay. Just go. Can you give yours?

1279
00:56:28,918 --> 00:56:31,921
I could, but I'll start from 1990.

1280
00:56:32,422 --> 00:56:33,857
You're going to start from 1990.

1281
00:56:33,857 --> 00:56:37,160
Yes. 30s we're here with Max

00:56:38,161 --> 00:56:39,863
and we're doing Best Picture.

1283
00:56:39,863 --> 00:56:40,764
Hold on. How many?

1284
00:56:40,764 --> 00:56:43,767
How many can you name, you think in 30s?

1285
00:56:44,701 --> 00:56:46,202
So six.

1286
00:56:46,202 --> 00:56:46,669
Stephanie.

1287
00:56:46,669 --> 00:56:49,239
How many you think you can name in 30s?

1288
00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:50,640
Yeah. All right.

1289
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:52,776
How many?
How many do you think you can name?

1290
00:56:52,776 --> 00:56:54,077
But just give me a number.

Yeah. Okay.

1292
00:56:55,278 --> 00:56:55,812
Actually.

1293
00:56:55,812 --> 00:56:57,113
All right, we're here with Max.

1294
00:56:57,113 --> 00:57:00,116
Ready? Best picture. 30s ready. Go.

1295
00:57:00,383 --> 00:57:03,386

00:57:31,514 --> 00:57:33,750
Oh, right there, Holy cow.

1307
00:57:33,750 --> 00:57:34,918
But you a. Winner.

1308
00:57:34,918 --> 00:57:37,220
You were exactly in order.

1309
00:57:37,220 --> 00:57:39,088
Like, like extra points.

1310
00:57:39,088 --> 00:57:41,591
Yeah. Let's just finish it off. Okay.

1311
00:57:41,591 --> 00:57:44,394
Where'd we, the working speech?

1312
00:57:44,394 --> 00:57:45,228

But, when was that 20.

1322
00:58:06,115 --> 00:58:09,118
About hearing impaired? Yes.

1323
00:58:11,054 --> 00:58:11,855
Starts with a C.

1324
00:58:11,855 --> 00:58:14,791
Yeah. Coda. Coda.

1325
00:58:14,791 --> 00:58:18,595

1327
00:58:20,263 --> 00:58:23,032
And I think this year
will be the brutal last.

1328
00:58:23,032 --> 00:58:25,802
Wow. Clap it up for my guy. Max.

1329
00:58:25,802 --> 00:58:27,070
That was impressive.

1330
00:58:27,070 --> 00:58:29,239
That's awesome.
I couldn't even go through the NBA.

1331
00:58:29,239 --> 00:58:32,208
Well, I probably could the NBA winners,
but that's, unbelievable.

1332
00:58:32,208 --> 00:58:33,810
I highlighted the ones I watched.

1333
00:58:33,810 --> 00:58:36,779
I've seen silence of the Lambs
is Unforgiven.

1334
00:58:36,779 --> 00:58:39,782
When the soldier, oh, Eastwood.

1335
00:58:41,017 --> 00:58:41,651
I thought it was.

1336
00:58:41,651 --> 00:58:44,754
Who was the soldier
that he, like, crashed in the

1337
00:58:44,787 --> 00:58:47,790
in a in a Chinese camp?

1338
00:58:48,691 --> 00:58:49,526
Unbroken.

1339
00:58:49,526 --> 00:58:50,994
Actually, that was my bad.

1340
00:58:50,994 --> 00:58:55,398
So I saw silence of the lambs, Schindler's
List, Forrest Gump,

1341
00:58:56,232 --> 00:58:59,702
Braveheart, Titanic, Gladiator,
Beautiful Mind, crash, departed.

1342
00:58:59,969 --> 00:59:02,438
Just watched, like most recently.

1343
00:59:02,438 --> 00:59:03,673
No country for Old Men.

1344
00:59:03,673 --> 00:59:06,676
Great movie. Oh my goodness.

1345
00:59:06,709 --> 00:59:09,145
The Hurt Locker
King speech I saw in the movie theater.

1346
00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:12,482
That's a lot of dialog.

1347
00:59:12,482 --> 00:59:13,650
And we, like, went to dinner

1348
00:59:13,650 --> 00:59:16,653
and it's kind of long and it's
black and white, and I was just fading.

1349
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,723
But, like, true Max fashion,
I didn't leave until the credits.

1350
00:59:21,090 --> 00:59:26,930
Well, you know,
I think that, part of the ability to watch

1351
00:59:26,930 --> 00:59:30,767
all genres
comes from actually watching all genres.

1352
00:59:30,767 --> 00:59:34,771
If I, if I only watched films with lots

1353
00:59:34,771 --> 00:59:39,309
and lots of wonderfully written dialog,
it may not affect me the same way.

1354
00:59:39,309 --> 00:59:43,680
If I wasn't also watching something
that was very riveting or something

1355
00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:44,847
that was really frightening.

1356
00:59:44,847 --> 00:59:48,751
I think for audiences,
there's a balance that comes from

1357
00:59:49,118 --> 00:59:53,389
opening up your mind to watch everything
and wanting to watch everything,

1358
00:59:53,523 --> 00:59:58,227
and when audiences respect that balance,
they are much happier.

1359
00:59:58,394 --> 00:59:59,395
But a lot of them don't.

1360
00:59:59,395 --> 01:00:02,365
So you would say, recommend
get out of your comfort zone.

1361
01:00:02,365 --> 01:00:03,800
Try a different. Variety.

1362
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:07,837
I mean, all movies,
all genres can have movies that are great.

1363
01:00:07,837 --> 01:00:12,575
All genres of movies
can, you know, have films that are bad.

1364
01:00:12,575 --> 01:00:14,077
You know, it's not about,

1365
01:00:14,077 --> 01:00:18,047
but it's never determined by the genre,
just the film itself.

1366
01:00:18,047 --> 01:00:21,517
So for our recommendation portion,
would you recommend to our viewers

1367
01:00:22,018 --> 01:00:24,520
to, to to try different movies?

1368
01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:25,321
Yeah, absolutely.

1369
01:00:25,321 --> 01:00:26,356
Try all kinds.

1370
01:00:26,356 --> 01:00:29,359
Try something
that you probably wouldn't do.

1371
01:00:29,759 --> 01:00:32,462
Probably an international feature film.

1372
01:00:32,462 --> 01:00:35,431
You know,
a lot of audiences, are very mainstream.

1373
01:00:35,431 --> 01:00:37,800
Don't do that.
But there's a lot of great ones out there.

1374
01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:39,569
So. Yeah, I want to see parasite.

1375
01:00:39,569 --> 01:00:41,270
Parasite was wonderful.

1376
01:00:41,270 --> 01:00:42,271
That was.

1377
01:00:42,271 --> 01:00:44,307
But there's, Subtitles, right? Yep.

1378
01:00:44,307 --> 01:00:45,842
There's subtitle.
But I really want to see that.

1379
01:00:45,842 --> 01:00:46,876
I heard great things about.

1380
01:00:46,876 --> 01:00:49,979
It, watching a lot of even, like, Peaky
just because of the brogue.

1381
01:00:50,279 --> 01:00:51,214
With subtitles.

1382
01:00:51,214 --> 01:00:52,382
I actually really enjoy.

1383
01:00:52,382 --> 01:00:54,317
Watching movies now with subtitles.

1384
01:00:54,317 --> 01:00:56,352
I thought for a while
I only focused on the words.

1385
01:00:56,352 --> 01:00:57,820
But you guys get you helped.

1386
01:00:57,820 --> 01:01:00,156
You comprehend a little. Bit?
Absolutely. Yeah, absolutely.

1387
01:01:00,156 --> 01:01:03,960
If it's whatever makes
it so that the experience,

1388
01:01:04,961 --> 01:01:06,763
is more memorable for you.

1389
01:01:06,763 --> 01:01:07,397
Whatever.

1390
01:01:07,397 --> 01:01:11,300
Audiences have different strategies,
do what works for them,

1391
01:01:11,300 --> 01:01:14,303
but definitely see the films because they.

1392
01:01:14,303 --> 01:01:18,274
What was the greatest year for movies
and why was it 1994?

1393
01:01:22,078 --> 01:01:25,081
What was the best year?

1394
01:01:25,281 --> 01:01:26,449
Was that your.

1395
01:01:26,449 --> 01:01:28,751
That's my pick. Oh, okay. Okay.

1396
01:01:28,751 --> 01:01:29,952
Because the Knicks are in the final.

1397
01:01:29,952 --> 01:01:32,955
Yeah.

1398
01:01:33,523 --> 01:01:35,958
Well,

1399
01:01:35,958 --> 01:01:38,861
I, I really don't know,
but I think that for me,

1400
01:01:38,861 --> 01:01:41,864
2012 was a very memorable year because,

1401
01:01:43,399 --> 01:01:46,169
for cinema, for me, because first of all,

1402
01:01:46,169 --> 01:01:52,108
that was the year when I really,
started to see films that I hadn't

1403
01:01:52,241 --> 01:01:57,013
been able to see throughout, my child
hood.

1404
01:01:57,013 --> 01:02:00,149
And, I'm like,
oh my God, this is so intense.

1405
01:02:00,149 --> 01:02:02,085
But this is really,

1406
01:02:02,085 --> 01:02:04,120
resonating with me for whatever reason.

1407
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:07,290
And, I saw a lot of movies and figures
that year.

1408
01:02:08,024 --> 01:02:13,629
I thought, to, you know,
bringing the challenge of bringing Lamesa

1409
01:02:13,629 --> 01:02:18,301
up to the screen when it was such a
beloved stage play was nearly impossible.

1410
01:02:18,501 --> 01:02:20,036
They totally pulled it off, though.

1411
01:02:20,036 --> 01:02:21,471
That was beautiful.

1412
01:02:21,471 --> 01:02:23,706
Zero Dark 30 was incredible.

1413
01:02:23,706 --> 01:02:25,141
That was really something.

1414
01:02:27,443 --> 01:02:29,645
I loved, Silver Linings Playbook.

1415
01:02:29,645 --> 01:02:32,515
You know, that
put them both judgments. Yeah.

1416
01:02:32,515 --> 01:02:34,050
Killing my juju.

1417
01:02:34,050 --> 01:02:35,585
That was great. What about.

1418
01:02:35,585 --> 01:02:37,353
Oh, back to 1994.

1419
01:02:37,353 --> 01:02:40,356
Sorry to. Did

1420
01:02:40,656 --> 01:02:42,458
Shawshank Redemption

1421
01:02:42,458 --> 01:02:45,461
also get overlooked?

1422
01:02:45,828 --> 01:02:47,497
I think it.

1423
01:02:47,497 --> 01:02:49,098
I mean, if. It's treated.

1424
01:02:49,098 --> 01:02:49,766
I don't know.

1425
01:02:49,766 --> 01:02:53,269
I mean, if it's between Forrest
Gump and Shashank redemption,

1426
01:02:53,269 --> 01:02:56,639
I personally would have gone with,
Shawshank, but,

1427
01:02:58,141 --> 01:03:02,879
I, I think that sentimentality is a
I mean, it's vital.

1428
01:03:02,879 --> 01:03:04,147
It has its importance.

1429
01:03:04,147 --> 01:03:08,518
And I think that if oftentimes
there are lots of Oscar wins

1430
01:03:08,518 --> 01:03:12,622
and nominees, to begin
with, that stem from me.

1431
01:03:12,688 --> 01:03:14,423
You also had Pulp Fiction.

1432
01:03:14,423 --> 01:03:14,724
Yeah.

1433
01:03:14,724 --> 01:03:20,029
That was I think that that movie was bound
to be so iconic that people just decided

1434
01:03:20,029 --> 01:03:23,699
it didn't really need anything
other than screenplay, but, quiz show.

1435
01:03:23,699 --> 01:03:27,136
But I totally would have given, a firm
and not Oscar for sure.

1436
01:03:27,136 --> 01:03:27,703
Oh, who won?

1437
01:03:27,703 --> 01:03:30,840
She's she's due for, at least two more.

1438
01:03:31,340 --> 01:03:32,842
Who won? The actress.

1439
01:03:34,377 --> 01:03:36,412
Supporting actress that year was,

1440
01:03:36,412 --> 01:03:40,116
for that year
was, Diane West for Bullets Over Broadway.

1441
01:03:40,116 --> 01:03:44,020
And she was very good, but I, I,
I mean, oh, my God.

1442
01:03:44,420 --> 01:03:46,122
Tom Hanks won for Forrest, right?

1443
01:03:46,122 --> 01:03:48,825
He did. I think he did.

1444
01:03:48,825 --> 01:03:49,959
I think he did.

1445
01:03:49,959 --> 01:03:52,395
But she went back to back
from Philadelphia.

1446
01:03:52,395 --> 01:03:55,064
Yes. Philadelphia
to Forrest Gump. That's true.

1447
01:03:55,064 --> 01:03:58,067
And yeah, she's a Hanks is a beast.

1448
01:03:58,267 --> 01:04:01,470
Well, I have more questions, but,
we got to test your dad now, too.

1449
01:04:01,470 --> 01:04:02,205
Oh, okay.

1450
01:04:02,205 --> 01:04:03,239
We have. Yeah.

1451
01:04:03,239 --> 01:04:04,740
It takes a lot to have a sip of water.

1452
01:04:04,740 --> 01:04:05,675
You're on fire. Thanks. You.

1453
01:04:05,675 --> 01:04:08,678
Amazing. That was so good. From 91.

1454
01:04:08,911 --> 01:04:10,379
It was actually 91.

1455
01:04:10,379 --> 01:04:12,381
Yeah. Yeah, because 94 was.

1456
01:04:12,381 --> 01:04:14,417
Because it's the year
after. Schindler's List.

1457
01:04:14,417 --> 01:04:15,718
So. Oh, yes.

1458
01:04:15,718 --> 01:04:20,590
For 91, the, Because The Silence
of the lambs had won the big five.

1459
01:04:20,590 --> 01:04:23,626
It was, screenplay Anthony Hopkins

1460
01:04:23,626 --> 01:04:27,063
and Jodie Foster one and at One Direction.

1461
01:04:27,063 --> 01:04:31,200
And, how about that wild fun fact
Anthony Hopkins is in that movie for about

1462
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,402
8 to 10 minutes. That's it. Yeah.
Oh yeah. Yeah.

1463
01:04:33,402 --> 01:04:35,171
But he wins Best Actor.

1464
01:04:35,171 --> 01:04:37,473
He's in it for. Like he, he was so,

1465
01:04:39,408 --> 01:04:40,676
oh so scary.

1466
01:04:40,676 --> 01:04:42,812
So scary.

1467
01:04:42,812 --> 01:04:43,246
You know what.

1468
01:04:43,246 --> 01:04:46,449
You know, throughout that whole movie
that he can't really hurt her

1469
01:04:46,449 --> 01:04:49,819
because he's behind the glass,
but he he haunts her. He.

1470
01:04:49,852 --> 01:04:50,253
Oh, yeah.

1471
01:04:50,253 --> 01:04:54,223
So if there's any cinephiles
in your audience, I mean.

1472
01:04:54,690 --> 01:04:56,893
This has to be their favorite. This is it.

1473
01:04:56,893 --> 01:04:57,960
We're doing it all. We're going to.

01:06:34,991 --> 01:06:37,827
Oh yeah. Shuttlesworth. Yeah.

1523
01:06:37,827 --> 01:06:38,995
Ray Allen right? No.

1524
01:06:40,696 --> 01:06:41,130
Yeah.

1525
01:06:41,130 --> 01:06:42,765
I mean, here's Burgess. Legendary.

1526
01:06:42,765 --> 01:06:44,266
Who's the chief?

1527
01:06:44,266 --> 01:06:47,336
Robert Parrish, who is a super nice guy.

1528
01:06:47,336 --> 01:06:48,037
My mother.

1529
01:06:48,037 --> 01:06:51,340
I actually bumped into the chief
at the Natick Mall one time

1530
01:06:51,340 --> 01:06:52,408
and actually spoke to him.

1531
01:06:52,408 --> 01:06:57,179
And, my mom being about five,
four in chief was just sitting down,

1532
01:06:57,179 --> 01:06:58,247
and they were at eye level.

1533
01:06:58,247 --> 01:07:01,250
And, she talked to him for a while,
so that was very nice guy.

1534
01:07:01,283 --> 01:07:02,551
We just had a yep.

1535
01:07:02,551 --> 01:07:06,889
We're going to close up, but we just
had a, movie contest at school.

1536
01:07:07,289 --> 01:07:10,526
I won, okay, seven of the movies,
so they showed up.

1537
01:07:10,826 --> 01:07:12,495
Ten second clip.

1538
01:07:12,495 --> 01:07:16,232
I got Star Wars, scream, Trainspotting.

1539
01:07:16,232 --> 01:07:17,566
You ever see that?

1540
01:07:17,566 --> 01:07:20,970
Yes. Little creepy
Guardians of the Galaxy, office space,

1541
01:07:20,970 --> 01:07:24,607
raising Arizona and Reservoir Dogs
for Reservoir Dogs.

1542
01:07:25,374 --> 01:07:27,743
You know,
male teacher in elementary school?

1543
01:07:27,743 --> 01:07:29,211
No one. Everyone's like,
what movie is that?

1544
01:07:29,211 --> 01:07:31,013
I never saw, I never heard of it.

1545
01:07:31,013 --> 01:07:33,783
Trainspotting. Same thing. So I won.

1546
01:07:33,783 --> 01:07:37,887
I won a packet of stickers
that said good job, happy Face stars.

1547
01:07:37,887 --> 01:07:39,588
So I won something. Movies.

1548
01:07:39,588 --> 01:07:41,357
That was just last week.
But I wanted to save it.

1549
01:07:43,325 --> 01:07:46,228
I want to shout out my friend
for making this shirt custom made shirt.

1550
01:07:46,228 --> 01:07:48,931
What do you think? It'd
be a good friend. Friends of Fini.

1551
01:07:48,931 --> 01:07:50,866
It's bright. It's colorful.
Thank you so. Much.

1552
01:07:50,866 --> 01:07:54,703
I actually honestly,
I was just in Las Vegas recently

1553
01:07:54,703 --> 01:07:56,705
and I give you shout outs to
so many people.

1554
01:07:56,705 --> 01:07:57,573
And I often mention

1555
01:07:57,573 --> 01:08:00,743
I forget the unfortunate family
might have been 2 or 3 years ago

1556
01:08:00,743 --> 01:08:04,013
at this point, but I remember
someone had a fire in your organization.

1557
01:08:04,013 --> 01:08:07,683
I remember you you guys raised like 25
Granderson, 24 hours.

1558
01:08:07,683 --> 01:08:10,086
Yeah. And I tell people the story
and I could be wrong.

1559
01:08:10,086 --> 01:08:13,022
You can clarify it,
but I remember you said

1560
01:08:13,022 --> 01:08:17,493
one of your students,
the dad passed away unexpectedly.

1561
01:08:17,493 --> 01:08:20,329
I don't know the exact details,
but then, like, 3 or 4 weeks later,

1562
01:08:20,329 --> 01:08:22,598
another student lost. It popped.

1563
01:08:22,598 --> 01:08:24,967
And then you're like,
I gotta do something, you know?

1564
01:08:24,967 --> 01:08:27,002
And I don't remember, like, your first.

1565
01:08:27,002 --> 01:08:28,304
And actually, I'm asking you, you good?

1566
01:08:28,304 --> 01:08:29,939
Like what your first action was.

1567
01:08:29,939 --> 01:08:34,043
But again, you're it's an amazing idea.

1568
01:08:34,043 --> 01:08:35,611
Like, I gotta help these people.

1569
01:08:35,611 --> 01:08:35,945
Yeah.

1570
01:08:35,945 --> 01:08:39,248
And now it's,
you know, it's it's user expression.

1571
01:08:39,248 --> 01:08:40,916
Your organization. Sorry. Blown up.

1572
01:08:40,916 --> 01:08:42,685
You were recently, right?

1573
01:08:42,685 --> 01:08:44,453
Nonprofit of the year.

1574
01:08:44,453 --> 01:08:46,489
And it's great.
You just got a great following.

1575
01:08:46,489 --> 01:08:47,756
But you had that same thing.

1576
01:08:47,756 --> 01:08:50,759
And Maxwell, I always try to encourage
you like you have an idea.

1577
01:08:51,193 --> 01:08:51,794
Go for it.

1578
01:08:51,794 --> 01:08:54,797
Eric had an idea, you know,
and you're you're doing great.

1579
01:08:54,797 --> 01:08:57,133
And, Well thank you. Yeah, seriously.

1580
01:08:57,133 --> 01:08:57,633
It's just.

1581
01:08:57,633 --> 01:08:58,334
And family.

1582
01:08:58,334 --> 01:08:58,801
Yeah.

1583
01:08:58,801 --> 01:09:01,570
Unexpectedly had a heart attack. It
when I was.

1584
01:09:01,570 --> 01:09:04,573
It was 12 years ago. 13 years ago now.

1585
01:09:04,773 --> 01:09:06,876
Had to do something,
you know, from a divorce family.

1586
01:09:06,876 --> 01:09:08,911
I know how it is
not to see my dad every once in a while.

1587
01:09:08,911 --> 01:09:11,747
I could never imagine
never seeing him again.

1588
01:09:11,747 --> 01:09:14,116
The following year,
one of my students lost their dads

1589
01:09:14,116 --> 01:09:15,818
to gun violence in Hartford.

1590
01:09:15,818 --> 01:09:18,087
And a boxing event. So

1591
01:09:19,021 --> 01:09:19,455
helped.

1592
01:09:19,455 --> 01:09:20,689
And we started Friends of Feeney.

1593
01:09:20,689 --> 01:09:25,094
Since then, we've helped over 90 families
and raise over $225,000.

1594
01:09:25,094 --> 01:09:26,128
Now, yeah.

1595
01:09:26,128 --> 01:09:27,263
We have a brand new website.

1596
01:09:27,263 --> 01:09:28,597
Check it out on Friends of Phoenix.

1597
01:09:28,597 --> 01:09:32,101
Com we have an event coming up
if you're free.

1598
01:09:32,101 --> 01:09:34,904
February 28th Wolf Pack game.

1599
01:09:34,904 --> 01:09:37,306
We get like 5 or $6 per ticket.

1600
01:09:37,306 --> 01:09:39,041
We'll have a big group.

1601
01:09:39,041 --> 01:09:41,343
We have a golf tournament September 13th.
Yeah.

1602
01:09:41,343 --> 01:09:42,278
You go often. Mass.

1603
01:09:42,278 --> 01:09:43,779
Yeah, yeah, Max we sponsor.

1604
01:09:43,779 --> 01:09:45,581
You're a movie critic website.

1605
01:09:45,581 --> 01:09:47,983
Yeah, we'll
we'll get you a t sign out there.

1606
01:09:47,983 --> 01:09:50,786
Yeah.

1607
01:09:50,786 --> 01:09:53,656
So, yeah, just thank you so much. And,

1608
01:09:53,656 --> 01:09:55,491
any closing remarks?

1609
01:09:55,491 --> 01:09:58,827
I'm just very grateful that you took
the time to speak with us today.

1610
01:09:58,827 --> 01:10:00,429
This is a wonderful thing.

1611
01:10:00,429 --> 01:10:04,033
You have going,
and I, I hope to be back soon, and.

1612
01:10:04,033 --> 01:10:05,834
Yeah, thank you so much.

1613
01:10:05,834 --> 01:10:09,638
We'll make it an annual Oscar review
party podcast.

1614
01:10:09,638 --> 01:10:12,374
Actually, I'd like to conclude with you
being a teacher.

1615
01:10:12,374 --> 01:10:14,510
And again, I had mentioned earlier
and it's something that

1616
01:10:14,510 --> 01:10:15,811
the kids don't identify with.

1617
01:10:15,811 --> 01:10:19,715
But again, for any parents listening,
you know, we say, oh, you know, kids

1618
01:10:19,715 --> 01:10:23,519
aren't maybe mainstreamed or playing
sports and all that, and who cares?

1619
01:10:23,519 --> 01:10:27,156
Like, you want your kids to thrive,
to find their passion.

1620
01:10:27,156 --> 01:10:28,424
And Jake and Max turn it.

1621
01:10:28,424 --> 01:10:31,961
Like most kids on a spectrum,
they don't have huge.

1622
01:10:32,561 --> 01:10:34,630
It's all about it's
nothing about aptitude.

1623
01:10:34,630 --> 01:10:37,233
It's all about minimal interest
and deep focus.

1624
01:10:37,233 --> 01:10:40,803
And obviously his interest is cinema.

1625
01:10:41,136 --> 01:10:43,172
Now, we haven't even talked
about literature.

1626
01:10:43,172 --> 01:10:45,874
They read nonstop also.

1627
01:10:45,874 --> 01:10:48,277
I mean, Max can read
literally 4 or 5 books in a week.

1628
01:10:48,277 --> 01:10:50,246
Not right now,
because he's writing all the time.

1629
01:10:50,246 --> 01:10:54,116
And that's just wonderful
to, to do, you know, so again,

1630
01:10:54,116 --> 01:10:55,918
all about encouragement, for,

1631
01:10:55,918 --> 01:10:59,622
for everyone, others within your house
or on your own team or in life.

1632
01:10:59,822 --> 01:11:00,923
I totally agree.

1633
01:11:00,923 --> 01:11:04,560
If you're if your kids passion in art
lead them in that direction

1634
01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:07,896
building, sculpture, movies,
whatever it is.

1635
01:11:07,896 --> 01:11:09,231
Writing, yeah.

1636
01:11:09,231 --> 01:11:12,201
Rivalry, whatever they do,
whatever they want to do.

1637
01:11:12,201 --> 01:11:15,204
Yeah. So my daughter likes. Yeah.

1638
01:11:15,504 --> 01:11:17,740
Oh, we got to do a quick,
quick couple shout outs.

1639
01:11:17,740 --> 01:11:20,743
Let's do a quick little game.
We got get people under the bus.

1640
01:11:20,743 --> 01:11:23,879
We're going to play start sit bench.

1641
01:11:23,879 --> 01:11:26,282
You got to start someone I'm going
to give you three people.

1642
01:11:26,282 --> 01:11:27,449
Start sit bench.

1643
01:11:27,449 --> 01:11:28,817
Okay I like it now.

1644
01:11:28,817 --> 01:11:33,122
But in terms of just
for like the final minute for who I mean.

1645
01:11:33,122 --> 01:11:33,656
Oh yeah.

1646
01:11:33,656 --> 01:11:37,459
So let's say five minutes on the clock
tie score.

1647
01:11:37,626 --> 01:11:38,961
You got to start sit bench.

1648
01:11:38,961 --> 01:11:40,029
Oh okay.

1649
01:11:40,029 --> 01:11:44,166
We're going to go tie Andy Scott to start

1650
01:11:45,834 --> 01:11:46,201
Andy.

1651
01:11:46,201 --> 01:11:48,604
Irwin. Scott. Matt. Scotty. Mac. Yeah.

1652
01:11:48,604 --> 01:11:52,207
Tom I want, I want I want Scotty on the,
I want Scotty I'll do it.

1653
01:11:52,207 --> 01:11:55,044
But I want obviously Ty Ty to to play.

1654
01:11:55,044 --> 01:11:57,813
You got to start. Someone sit someone.

1655
01:11:57,813 --> 01:11:58,380
Oh wait.

1656
01:11:58,380 --> 01:11:59,281
That's what I'm. Actually.

1657
01:11:59,281 --> 01:12:02,251
Oh wait. Wait of. A it's cut. Oops.

1658
01:12:02,318 --> 01:12:02,851
It's cut.

1659
01:12:02,851 --> 01:12:05,821
You got to cut. Someone start bench cut.

1660
01:12:06,355 --> 01:12:06,722
Yeah.

1661
01:12:06,722 --> 01:12:09,425
Since Andy's passed on me
a few times, I'm going to pass on him.

1662
01:12:09,425 --> 01:12:12,261
Not in person, I love him.
I love his passion for Michigan State.

1663
01:12:12,261 --> 01:12:14,997
But I'm going to go with Ty and Scotty
Mack.

1664
01:12:14,997 --> 01:12:17,166
They got the chemistry out there. Cool.
All right.

1665
01:12:17,166 --> 01:12:22,304
Same game near Fuchs Bender.

1666
01:12:22,705 --> 01:12:24,340
Oh, God.

1667
01:12:24,340 --> 01:12:25,474
Start bench cut.

1668
01:12:25,474 --> 01:12:28,310
I'll figure if it's going late,
the game could be at nine.

1669
01:12:28,310 --> 01:12:30,879
So Bender won't even be there
so he can cut Bender.

1670
01:12:30,879 --> 01:12:32,815
Even though I love the guy. And,

1671
01:12:33,982 --> 01:12:34,450
Fuchs may

1672
01:12:34,450 --> 01:12:37,453
be looking after my money and, but,

1673
01:12:37,553 --> 01:12:40,422
but damn near is a, former Israeli

1674
01:12:40,422 --> 01:12:43,759
soldier, so it's tough to go against
Nair down the stretch.

1675
01:12:43,759 --> 01:12:45,260
I want near on on the court.

1676
01:12:45,260 --> 01:12:51,033
And, I'll go with Nia and Ben and, sorry,
big Dave Bender, but we're going to.

1677
01:12:51,066 --> 01:12:52,134
We're going to stick. To the Paul.

1678
01:12:52,134 --> 01:12:54,269
Bender. Yeah, exactly. Sacred pool.

1679
01:12:54,269 --> 01:12:57,272
Rabbi Seth

1680
01:12:57,606 --> 01:12:59,675
Brett.

1681
01:12:59,675 --> 01:13:02,311
And, being on the court, I like,

1682
01:13:02,311 --> 01:13:05,681
I like,
I like Brett making the right decisions.

1683
01:13:06,315 --> 01:13:09,918
So that's going to be due for that, three
if he.

1684
01:13:09,918 --> 01:13:12,921
He can make the threes if he's in rhythm.

1685
01:13:13,055 --> 01:13:15,124
But if he's off rhythm,
I don't like him shooting.

1686
01:13:15,124 --> 01:13:18,227
And, Rabbi
won't have out there in the final stages.

01:13:24,333 --> 01:13:25,734

01:13:34,243 --> 01:13:37,246
Evan. Jason. Rick hurts.

1694
01:13:37,379 --> 01:13:40,182
Hey, man,
let's let's talk about some other things.

1695
01:13:40,182 --> 01:13:42,084
Finally.
I've got a lot of other questions. You.

1696
01:13:42,084 --> 01:13:44,820
I bet you know, I'll just tell you.

1697
01:13:44,820 --> 01:13:46,622
You didn't ask me my favorite movies.

1698
01:13:46,622 --> 01:13:48,023
Oh. Favorite movies?

1699
01:13:48,023 --> 01:13:48,724
Just couple things.

1700
01:13:48,724 --> 01:13:49,358
We'll we'll see.

1701
01:13:49,358 --> 01:13:51,960
So I would say

1702
01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:56,231
we one thing that he didn't mention
at all, it was all, like, serious movies.

1703
01:13:56,231 --> 01:14:00,502
And the boys in there, you guys aren't
not like, blockbuster, Marvel type stuff.

1704
01:14:00,502 --> 01:14:02,337
You know, they're into real, like,

1705
01:14:02,337 --> 01:14:04,840
you know, I don't wanna say real cinema
because it's all part of cinema.

1706
01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:07,843
But what they like,

1707
01:14:08,010 --> 01:14:08,911
and not to me.

1708
01:14:08,911 --> 01:14:11,146
Like, we like, like frozen.

1709
01:14:11,146 --> 01:14:13,382
What movie was he in? The Incredibles?

1710
01:14:13,382 --> 01:14:15,150
I just love those growing up.

1711
01:14:15,150 --> 01:14:19,121
You know, we really connected with that
Mufasa with The Lion King.

1712
01:14:19,621 --> 01:14:22,825
To me, Finding Nemo, it's
just a great like the dad.

1713
01:14:22,825 --> 01:14:23,492
Yeah, it's a great.

1714
01:14:23,492 --> 01:14:26,695
It's like, it's,
every father would love it that just like,

1715
01:14:26,695 --> 01:14:27,129
I would treat

1716
01:14:27,129 --> 01:14:30,499
you guys like father would go anywhere
and do anything for the kids, and.

1717
01:14:30,499 --> 01:14:34,336
But to me, Godfather just wanted
to, listen.

1718
01:14:34,336 --> 01:14:37,372
And I often will watch it,
and it comes on.

1719
01:14:37,372 --> 01:14:38,707
It's like, what, three hours each?

1720
01:14:38,707 --> 01:14:43,145
And we'll just, you know, have a weekend
and just, you know, just watch it.

1721
01:14:43,879 --> 01:14:46,114
Two, you know, 6 or 8 hours. It is.

1722
01:14:46,114 --> 01:14:48,851
I think The Godfather
is just absolutely spectacular.

1723
01:14:48,851 --> 01:14:52,488
And I know you mentioned seeing things
in the theater, Carlito's Way.

1724
01:14:52,754 --> 01:14:56,625
You ever see that Carlito's Way
with Al Pacino?

1725
01:14:56,625 --> 01:14:57,059
Yeah.

1726
01:14:57,059 --> 01:15:00,262
I don't recognize Sean Penn. Oh.

1727
01:15:00,963 --> 01:15:02,397

1729
01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:07,936
Saw that in a theater 3 or 4 times.

1730
01:15:07,936 --> 01:15:08,971
Go back and check it out.

1731
01:15:08,971 --> 01:15:10,772

Actually. Look, let me.

1733
01:15:11,874 --> 01:15:14,476
I would love to see you
do a review on Carlito's Way.

1734
01:15:14,476 --> 01:15:17,246
Which literally is not to get political
because I'm not at all.

1735
01:15:17,246 --> 01:15:20,382
But just like with the terror thing

1741
01:15:34,696 --> 01:15:38,867
where where it's always been
a huge filmmaking location.

1753
01:16:03,825 --> 01:16:07,429

but he's, a really acclaimed
filmmaker, and, and Canada.

They just unleashed that

It looks very interesting.

1760

I watch a lot.
