you seen? Well? I went through the list and I

32
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:20.560
actually I've seen seven of them and I have a

33
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:23.000
few more that three more that I want to see

34
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:27.120

41

it's time rest, relax, Go get some cheese, get some

00:03:38.120 --> 00:03:43.800
pleasure to welcome to the broadcast today again the story Genie,

51
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:47.280
Jeanie Corkorian. Hi Jeanie, how you doing?

52
00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:50.400
Hi January, So good to see you again. It's always

53
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:52.400
a pleasure to be here. Thank you for having me.

54
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:56.360
Oh, I just always look forward to doing this show

55
00:03:56.759 --> 00:04:00.479
with you. I look back in our archives and we've

56
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:05.599
done this before, and talking about the Oscars is just

57
00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:10.120
such an amazing fun thing to do, don't you agree? Oh?

58
00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:14.240
Absolutely? I mean I'm a big movie fan and other

59
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:17.680
than COVID periods of time, Dan and I would love

60
00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:20.920
to spend a whole saturday seeing three movies in the

61
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:23.120
big in the big theaters and the big Oh yeah,

62
00:04:23.480 --> 00:04:25.720
I love the big streaming effective seeing movies. But we

63
00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:28.439
like to watch them at home and we gobble up

64
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:32.079
Netflix and Hulu and Disney and Paramount and you name it.

65
00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:33.519
We're always watching movies.

66
00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:38.040
Yeah, And that's the wonderful thing now, especially as we

67
00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:42.199
are a part of the senior crowd. There are so

68
00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:45.519
many wonderful movies that you can watch on all the

69
00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:53.199
networking streaming stations channels. This year, they've nominated ten movies.

70
00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:56.800
So what I thought we would do, Jeanie as I

71
00:04:56.839 --> 00:05:01.759
was going to list the ten pick pictures. Then we

72
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:06.759
just talk about briefly. Our previews are our reviews of

73
00:05:06.839 --> 00:05:10.240
each one, and then after that, towards the end of

74
00:05:10.279 --> 00:05:15.319
the show, we'll go into detail about the best nominated

75
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:20.040
actors and actresses. And then along the way, I know

76
00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:26.040
you'll be sharing a lot of Oscar trivia with our listeners.

77
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:27.160
We'll find out.

78
00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:32.680
Okay, So I'm going to alphabetically give the list of

79
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:36.959
the best pictures that are nominated for twenty twenty five.

80
00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:46.399
Norah The Brutalist, A Complete Unknown Conclave, Doom Part two,

81
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:53.920
Emilia Perez. I'm Still Here, Nickel Boys, and The Substance.

82
00:05:54.839 --> 00:06:00.639
These are the ten nominated movies. It's an itch ristine

83
00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:07.160
collection of movies because Amelia Perez was primarily done on

84
00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:16.120
network television streaming. Also, I'm Still Here is Spanish with captions,

85
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:21.120
and that's one of the rare times that a Spanish

86
00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:25.439
speaking or a foreign language movie is nominated in the

87
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:27.439
actual Best Picture category.

88
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:31.000
And you know, it's all nominated for Best International Film,

89
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:33.639
so it's got a double whammy opportunity there.

90
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:37.519
Yeah yeah, and it would not surprise me if it

91
00:06:37.560 --> 00:06:44.279
doesn't win International for sure. Let's talk first about Anora.

92
00:06:45.079 --> 00:06:48.600
And now this is unfortunately one of the movies I

93
00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:50.720
haven't seen because it was on my list to do,

94
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:53.480
but we never got around to it this week. But

95
00:06:53.680 --> 00:07:00.480
it just sounds like an incredible fun movie about a

96
00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:07.120
young Russian oligark who comes to this country and goes

97
00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:13.160
to script club and falls in love and has a

98
00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:17.519
relationship with an incredible young actor escort.

99
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:22.720
She's called an sport, right yeah.

100
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:24.000
Oh yeah yeah, and then his parents show up and

101
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:26.800
you know, kind of put the kebash on the whole romance.

102
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:32.279
And some of the reviewers and Kurta have actually said

103
00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:34.040
this could be a sleeper this year.

104
00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:37.720
Now it's true they are saying that it could actually

105
00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:40.519
win Best Picture. I don't know about that, because there's

106
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:44.079
some pretty good competitive pictures in the field this year.

107
00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:46.439
Well there are always there are some that you know,

108
00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:50.319
I'm particularly fond of, and they don't involve semi hookers

109
00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:56.160
and Russians. But Noura is supposed to be quite good,

110
00:07:56.240 --> 00:07:59.720
well done and really really an audience pleaser in terms

111
00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:01.959
of you know, you didn't waste two hours of your life,

112
00:08:02.319 --> 00:08:05.759
and the co stars up for Best Actor or no,

113
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:08.439
the director's up for Best Director, and the movie's up

114
00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:11.000
for Best Movie. I mean, that's a lot of good stuff.

115
00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:16.720
Yeah, it's quite an amazing movie. The next movie that

116
00:08:16.759 --> 00:08:19.680
we're going to preview a little bit and talk about

117
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:26.040
and review as the Brutalist, And this is a long

118
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:32.720
movie because when you're there, but it is a classic,

119
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:39.679
fantastic movie. Browdie is amazing in the lead part. And

120
00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:42.960
it's though it is a little.

121
00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:46.720
Dark, right, Well, then the movie title sort of gives

122
00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:51.480
it away as promising to be pretty dark. And I

123
00:08:51.480 --> 00:08:54.720
don't think they're talking about architecture, so maybe.

124
00:08:56.120 --> 00:09:01.240
Now and he has gotten several awards, and it's a

125
00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:09.360
beautifully executed movie, and I think that we're it's it's

126
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:13.399
really it's a competitor as far as winning Best Picture,

127
00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:16.320
but I'm sure it'll win some other awards.

128
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:22.200
To you know, it's a nineteen forty seven story, and

129
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:24.759
there's something about when you flash back to those periods

130
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:27.320
of times, and you know, I'm joking about calling it

131
00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:30.600
a brutalist thing, and they are. It is about brutalist architecture,

132
00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:34.759
but it's also about how, you know, how this couple

133
00:09:34.879 --> 00:09:38.720
deals in nineteen forty seven with their situation. So it's anyway,

134
00:09:38.840 --> 00:09:41.879
it's it's got a lot of promise and sometimes the

135
00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:44.679
dog win, you know, especially period pieces.

136
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:48.399
Oh yeah. And and and the part about him being

137
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:53.559
a brilliant architect and his immigration to this country, what

138
00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:59.000
he goes through as far as assimilating and creating a

139
00:09:59.039 --> 00:10:04.759
new life, a new career. It's a fascinating personal story.

140
00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:08.759
You almost when you're watching it, you're just thinking how

141
00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:12.240
many people have gone through the same thing. The part

142
00:10:12.279 --> 00:10:17.600
where he's sponsored by his friends to come over and

143
00:10:17.759 --> 00:10:21.240
get situated, and then they have a falling out, which

144
00:10:21.320 --> 00:10:25.879
so often happens in life, and then they go their

145
00:10:25.919 --> 00:10:32.240
separate ways, and he eventually becomes quite successful. It's great

146
00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:33.919
entertainment in my opinion.

147
00:10:34.440 --> 00:10:36.559
And you know, it really will touch a chord with

148
00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:40.360
a lot of the older seniors that have been through

149
00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:43.639
World War Two and the fact after World War Two,

150
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:46.080
the post World War Two period of nineteen forty seven

151
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:49.240
and so on, so many people they just had to

152
00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:54.480
start their lives over. And it was not only was

153
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:58.080
the more global upheaval, but it was starting their lives

154
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.080
over and how the world was changed forever after World

155
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:01.559
War Two.

156
00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:07.960
Oh yeah, yeah. And then the third movie nominated is

157
00:11:08.360 --> 00:11:13.440
Complete Unknown. Now, this movie about Bob Dylan is incredible.

158
00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:17.360
I just couldn't take my eyes off the screen. The

159
00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:23.519
acting was just amazing, and you learned so much about

160
00:11:23.559 --> 00:11:27.039
Bob Dylan and of course Joan Bias, who was one

161
00:11:27.080 --> 00:11:30.559
of the great loves of his life, that it was

162
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:33.759
it was almost like a little mini history class.

163
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:39.000
And you know who's remarkable is Timothy Cello May. I'm

164
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:42.000
sure I'm probably murdering his name, but I understand he

165
00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:47.240
does like the French pronuncision. Anyway, Timothy Cello May, He's

166
00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:49.840
an amazing young man. I mean, not only in this

167
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:55.360
but the fact that he was Willy Wonka in Yona

168
00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:58.960
and then he's in Dune and he's not Dune, just nominated.

169
00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:03.120
And what a versatile, really really versatile young actor. And

170
00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:06.519
he's so young. He's got this enormous career in front

171
00:12:06.519 --> 00:12:06.879
of him.

172
00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:13.840
So it was so fascinating to find out the history

173
00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:19.080
of his career, that his how he adored or worshiped

174
00:12:19.240 --> 00:12:23.159
Arlow got Thrie, and how Pete Seeger was a mentor,

175
00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:30.320
and how they both enabled him to create his career,

176
00:12:30.960 --> 00:12:35.679
and they were both supportive and they all stayed actually

177
00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:40.320
connected throughout their lives, which I hadn't. You don't think

178
00:12:40.360 --> 00:12:44.840
of Bob Dylan his country, That's true.

179
00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:46.919
And you don't think of him as being, you know,

180
00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:50.440
nineteen years old when he got started. You always picture him,

181
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:52.879
at least I do. I always picture Bob Dylan in that

182
00:12:53.919 --> 00:13:00.240
midlife you know, thirties to fifties kind of window was

183
00:13:00.320 --> 00:13:03.679
so iconic. I mean during the sixties. Obviously he became

184
00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:06.679
part of the culture, fame through the culture, but he

185
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:12.000
persisted through he persisted through decades and decades. When I

186
00:13:12.080 --> 00:13:15.080
was living in Las Vegas, I actually won tickets to

187
00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:20.240
the Hard Rock to see him live when he was

188
00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:23.720
in Las Vegas, and that was in the early two thousands,

189
00:13:23.759 --> 00:13:25.759
so that's, you know, twenty years ago when I saw him.

190
00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:28.440
And the way that I won the tickets is I

191
00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:31.799
called the radio station. You had to do some piece

192
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:36.120
of a Bob Dylan song and you had to impersonated

193
00:13:36.200 --> 00:13:38.879
Bob Dylan. That's how I won the tickets. But fascinating

194
00:13:38.919 --> 00:13:42.919
that his career is one of those multi, multi decade careers.

195
00:13:42.960 --> 00:13:48.320
Amazing. Yeah, he's truly a legend. And my understanding is

196
00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:52.559
that he was quite pleased with the movie and he

197
00:13:52.679 --> 00:13:56.279
was quite pleased with the acting and how it presented

198
00:13:56.440 --> 00:14:00.360
his career, which is a lovely that's a lovely thank you.

199
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:03.159
Speaking of lovely things, We're going to take a break

200
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:10.200

240
00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:50.200
Yes, wonderful, wonderful for your little ones. Okay, the fourth

241
00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:53.960
movie we're going to talk about. I was just spell by.

242
00:16:54.600 --> 00:16:57.919
I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. And this

243
00:16:58.039 --> 00:17:02.039
movie was Conclave. And I know, Geenie, both you and

244
00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:07.720
I were raised Catholic and this is wow. What a

245
00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:13.000
look behind the scenes of the Vatican and the process

246
00:17:13.119 --> 00:17:18.640
that where they select the next Pope. The actors, oh

247
00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:25.440
my gosh, it was an amazing cast, wonderful cast, and

248
00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:31.759
it just has an incredible ending that believe me, if

249
00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:34.440
you haven't seen it, you won't see it coming.

250
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:38.880
Well, and those of us who were raised Catholic, who

251
00:17:38.880 --> 00:17:41.640
went to Catholic school and went through the very hope

252
00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:46.480
I think you met was it Pope Paul the Seventh.

253
00:17:46.519 --> 00:17:50.160
Yes, I met the well, I actually was close to

254
00:17:50.240 --> 00:17:53.799
the Polish I really need. I didn't get to kiss

255
00:17:53.839 --> 00:17:57.640
his ring, I could touch him.

256
00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:01.880
I think he passed you by coming out of the

257
00:18:02.119 --> 00:18:04.279
confessional or something, didn't.

258
00:18:04.039 --> 00:18:07.440
He Yeah, and I got to I can only say

259
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:11.480
a few words in Polish jin kuya, which is thank you,

260
00:18:12.079 --> 00:18:14.400
and I did get to say that to him, So

261
00:18:14.559 --> 00:18:18.160
I felt it was just to see him in person

262
00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:22.599
was very very exciting, very exciting for everyone, whether you're

263
00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:23.400
Catholic or not.

264
00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:27.480
True, that's true. He's kind of a beloved figure universally.

265
00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:30.079
And it's kind of like, you know, there are religious

266
00:18:30.119 --> 00:18:34.559
figures that people might not follow that religion, but they

267
00:18:34.640 --> 00:18:38.640
so admire and believe in the value of the key

268
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:41.319
people in that religion, like the Pope, even if you're

269
00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:43.839
not Catholic, and like Jesus, even if you're not Christian,

270
00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:47.240
a lot of respect, a lot of adoration of their life.

271
00:18:47.559 --> 00:18:51.880
And yeah, people feel that way about the Dalai Lama, right,

272
00:18:52.039 --> 00:18:56.799
so many religious figures. You know. This last weekend that

273
00:18:57.000 --> 00:19:02.000
Ralph finds he picked up the Best Actor Award and

274
00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:06.960
for Conclave, and they also got the An Ensemble Award

275
00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:12.119
for the movie. So I think I think they're they're

276
00:19:12.160 --> 00:19:14.799
really in the running in my opinion.

277
00:19:14.920 --> 00:19:17.440
Well, there's certainly I think they'll certainly have a shot

278
00:19:17.440 --> 00:19:20.519
of picking up the best adapted screenplay. I think that

279
00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:26.200
in script alone, the research, the way they conveyed it

280
00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:30.039
to adapt it into a screenplays is great, great work,

281
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:30.799
just work.

282
00:19:31.799 --> 00:19:35.319
Yeah. Yeah, And now our next movie we're going to

283
00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:40.680
talk And also, there were so many the actors, the

284
00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:43.880
character actors in the background in that film. And we

285
00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:49.000
can't forget Isabella Rossini because she was nominated as this

286
00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:52.160
she was the main nun. She was actually the only

287
00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:53.720
woman in that movie.

288
00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:56.319
That's funny.

289
00:19:56.319 --> 00:20:02.160
Well, her presence was very, very powerful. She's a great actor,

290
00:20:02.440 --> 00:20:05.400
just like her mother. Uh get it.

291
00:20:05.519 --> 00:20:09.640
Best supporting actress, she certainly supported herself. She was the

292
00:20:09.640 --> 00:20:13.359
best supporting actress in a field of men, like you say, so, that's.

293
00:20:13.160 --> 00:20:18.960
Really yeah, she definitely stood out. Wonderful. The next movie

294
00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:21.519
we're going to talk briefly about is done. And this

295
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:25.680
is part two, so you don't have to have seen

296
00:20:25.799 --> 00:20:29.599
part one to enjoy part two. And it is a

297
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:33.480
of course Timothy is nominated in this.

298
00:20:34.119 --> 00:20:40.720
Yeah, yeah, and its matured. It's a nice it's a

299
00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:44.720
nice next step of this version. You know, Dune two

300
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:48.359
carries itself off well. And you know, the saying in

301
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:51.960
Hollywood is that a sequel has to be twice as

302
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:55.279
good to be liked half as much as the original.

303
00:20:55.359 --> 00:20:57.839
So sequels really have to work hard. And I actually

304
00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:01.599
think I liked to better than one. I think it

305
00:21:01.640 --> 00:21:04.319
was better lit because I thought, you know, Dune one

306
00:21:04.559 --> 00:21:07.039
was kind of dark and murky in a lot of places,

307
00:21:07.079 --> 00:21:08.960
even though it had a lot of merit. But this

308
00:21:09.039 --> 00:21:10.039
one is better lit.

309
00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:15.400
And especially especially when you get our age, we have

310
00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:18.279
to have well lit, well lit movies right up.

311
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:20.000
Booking it like, what are they doing now?

312
00:21:20.039 --> 00:21:20.640
It's so dark?

313
00:21:20.680 --> 00:21:25.079
Why don't they light it up? Listen? And you know,

314
00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:29.119
sharing senior success means that we're over fifty five. And

315
00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:32.119
when you're in Florida, and especially like Sara Sota, Florida,

316
00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:35.519
we are where we are over fifty, seniors have to

317
00:21:35.559 --> 00:21:39.519
remind themselves that in Sarasota, fifty five is the new forty.

318
00:21:39.759 --> 00:21:43.359
So that makes seventy the new fifty five. So there

319
00:21:43.400 --> 00:21:43.640
you are.

320
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:47.160
Okay, Well, I'm in the eighties now, so I'm a

321
00:21:47.279 --> 00:21:48.519
super super senior.

322
00:21:49.200 --> 00:21:51.440
Well here, you know, it's a new sixty five. There

323
00:21:51.480 --> 00:21:53.279
you go, that's wonderful.

324
00:21:53.640 --> 00:21:57.160
I'll go with that. I'll go with that. My husband

325
00:21:57.160 --> 00:22:03.039
and I you both enjoyed watching Emilia Peretz. Wow, what

326
00:22:03.359 --> 00:22:10.359
a movie. It was amazing and the actresses were incredible.

327
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:14.160
It's it's a plot. I don't want to root it

328
00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:19.839
for you, but of course it's a transgender movie that

329
00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:23.920
you just don't see or hear about very much. I

330
00:22:24.000 --> 00:22:29.240
thought the premise of the movie was very daring, very daring,

331
00:22:30.119 --> 00:22:34.039
and it was I believe we watched it on Netflix,

332
00:22:34.119 --> 00:22:37.519
so I think it's got a lot of exposure and

333
00:22:38.160 --> 00:22:41.759
I it would be a real dark horse, let me

334
00:22:41.799 --> 00:22:42.319
put it that.

335
00:22:42.279 --> 00:22:46.039
Way right well, and the you know, the cast, it's

336
00:22:46.119 --> 00:22:50.400
kind of unusual for uh, Zoe Saldana is just so

337
00:22:50.519 --> 00:22:56.720
hot right now with the the television work that she's doing,

338
00:22:56.759 --> 00:23:01.640
the television series on streaming that she's doing. She's just

339
00:23:01.720 --> 00:23:05.480
on fire, you know, on fire. She's got a real

340
00:23:05.519 --> 00:23:07.960
good shot at this and she's got a big fan base,

341
00:23:08.279 --> 00:23:12.599
and she's an outstanding actress and people forget a lot

342
00:23:12.640 --> 00:23:16.640
of the things she's been in. But again, so such

343
00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:20.359
such a multi talented, diverse actress who could do everything

344
00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:28.759
from sci fi to just you know, motion capture, phenomenons

345
00:23:28.799 --> 00:23:32.920
like Avatar. I mean, she's just something else. And of course,

346
00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:35.920
like you say, the story is daring, and the three

347
00:23:35.960 --> 00:23:39.759
main women character just bring it. We bring it. They

348
00:23:39.799 --> 00:23:40.160
all do.

349
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:46.319
And it was such a creative experience because you're into

350
00:23:46.400 --> 00:23:51.519
watching this movie and following the plot, and then without

351
00:23:51.839 --> 00:23:57.920
a clue, without a hint, it becomes a musical and

352
00:23:58.839 --> 00:24:03.920
about incredible well, as you said, a talent for the

353
00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:08.000
music and dancing that they all did. And then and

354
00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:11.039
then it would just kind of flipped back to the storyline.

355
00:24:12.839 --> 00:24:15.240
There seems to be something Ally was liking to sneak

356
00:24:15.279 --> 00:24:17.720
in every now and then you know, oh yeah, I

357
00:24:17.839 --> 00:24:19.079
see a lot of that going on.

358
00:24:19.839 --> 00:24:23.519
We enjoyed that because it came up with things you

359
00:24:23.559 --> 00:24:27.279
were expecting. So that's what's fun about going to the

360
00:24:27.319 --> 00:24:33.160
movies these days, is that the creative creativity that comes out.

361
00:24:34.839 --> 00:24:39.839
Another movie that was also captions and Spanish speaking was

362
00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:46.680
I'm Still Here and Wow, that movie really got up.

363
00:24:47.400 --> 00:24:56.480
I scried. It was so moving. Everyone who left the theater, seriously,

364
00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:00.759
we were all in tears because it was har wrenching

365
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:07.240
a movie. It told a story about the Brazilian Revolution,

366
00:25:07.599 --> 00:25:12.720
which took place over twenty twenty five years, where these

367
00:25:12.839 --> 00:25:18.799
people were just picked up and disappeared, and their families

368
00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:22.799
had no idea what happened to them. They had no

369
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:27.119
death certificates. And this is a story about a woman

370
00:25:27.960 --> 00:25:32.200
who had to carry on. She had five children. Her

371
00:25:32.279 --> 00:25:36.839
husband disappeared and he had been a former congressman, and

372
00:25:36.920 --> 00:25:41.359
then she had to carry on with five children. She

373
00:25:41.519 --> 00:25:46.440
went back to college, she became a lawyer, and she

374
00:25:46.519 --> 00:25:50.480
became a human rights lawyer, helping all the other families

375
00:25:50.599 --> 00:25:54.400
in Brazil who had to go through what her family

376
00:25:54.480 --> 00:26:02.319
went through. Fernando Torrez I would, personally, if I had

377
00:26:02.319 --> 00:26:07.319
a vote, I would vote her best actress myself. I

378
00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:07.920
really would.

379
00:26:08.519 --> 00:26:11.240
I've got a question I'd love your opinion on when

380
00:26:11.759 --> 00:26:14.559
things like I'm Still here, You know that all took

381
00:26:14.599 --> 00:26:18.640
place in the seventies. Nineteen seventy one is the primary

382
00:26:18.720 --> 00:26:24.000
date around it. Why does it take fifty years for

383
00:26:24.119 --> 00:26:27.839
this story to be told? I mean why when you

384
00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:30.559
look at these things, I mean, the one that follows

385
00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:33.519
World War Two is set in nineteen forty seven. This

386
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:36.240
one you look at it and say, oh, well, you know,

387
00:26:36.240 --> 00:26:39.759
it's set in nineteen seventy one, and it doesn't seem

388
00:26:40.240 --> 00:26:43.359
to us to a senior, it doesn't seem very long ago,

389
00:26:43.519 --> 00:26:45.640
but then you stop to think about it. My goodness,

390
00:26:45.680 --> 00:26:49.039
that's fifty years ago. Why did so long to get

391
00:26:49.039 --> 00:26:50.319
to the screen, you.

392
00:26:50.240 --> 00:26:54.240
Know, I know? And it really it's it's a true

393
00:26:54.319 --> 00:26:58.440
story and it's taken forever to be told, and it's

394
00:26:59.640 --> 00:27:03.039
a the ending. Just everyone was in tears. It was

395
00:27:03.319 --> 00:27:09.279
a moving movie movie that I highly recommended. I'm kind

396
00:27:09.279 --> 00:27:13.000
of cheering for her. She went through every phase of

397
00:27:13.000 --> 00:27:17.559
her life on camera and sadly ended up with Alzheimer's,

398
00:27:17.880 --> 00:27:21.480
which so often I didn't know that. Yeah, you know,

399
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:24.279
it was. It was quite a movie. The other movie

400
00:27:24.359 --> 00:27:27.079
I wanted to talk briefly about was The Nickel Boys

401
00:27:27.240 --> 00:27:30.680
and These This is a story about two boys who

402
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:35.839
end up going to a reform school and by mistake

403
00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:39.400
that happens, and then it's a movie about how the

404
00:27:39.480 --> 00:27:43.200
different the white boys and the black boys, how they're

405
00:27:43.200 --> 00:27:47.799
treated so differently, but yet they still come out of

406
00:27:47.839 --> 00:27:53.799
it and survive. It's a it's another inspirational movie and

407
00:27:53.920 --> 00:27:56.359
it's another true true story.

408
00:27:56.279 --> 00:27:58.680
And it's and the book that it's based upon was

409
00:27:58.720 --> 00:28:01.839
a Pulitzer Prize winner. So for those who maybe now

410
00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:05.119
are not inclined to go to the movie, read the book.

411
00:28:05.359 --> 00:28:06.920
For those that are inclined to read.

412
00:28:06.839 --> 00:28:12.039
The book, go see the movie that I like it

413
00:28:12.079 --> 00:28:16.200
when they you know, there there are people that are

414
00:28:16.319 --> 00:28:17.640
book worms like me.

415
00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:20.680
I read a lot of books. I read four books

416
00:28:20.680 --> 00:28:23.319
a week. But I love movies too. But some people

417
00:28:23.319 --> 00:28:25.160
prefer one over the other. So this gives you the

418
00:28:25.160 --> 00:28:28.400
great choice. Pull User Prize winning people, go see the movie.

419
00:28:28.839 --> 00:28:34.799
Oh, Perfect, Perfect, And then the last movie Substance, And

420
00:28:34.920 --> 00:28:40.920
this is the incredible movie that Debbie Moore is just

421
00:28:41.079 --> 00:28:46.519
finally acknowledged as an incredible actress. And she's worked at

422
00:28:46.519 --> 00:28:50.519
her craft, as we know, for years, and she's one

423
00:28:50.519 --> 00:28:54.640
of the hardest working actresses that have come through the

424
00:28:54.680 --> 00:29:01.400
Hollywood grinder, the Hollywood mill, and she's finally gotten herself

425
00:29:01.400 --> 00:29:05.519
into a movie where she's been getting so much wonderful,

426
00:29:05.599 --> 00:29:06.960
wonderful recognition.

427
00:29:07.599 --> 00:29:12.920
All Right, it's a shame that she's up against Fernando Fernanda, because,

428
00:29:14.160 --> 00:29:16.440
like you said, I think Fernanda trust is probably the

429
00:29:16.440 --> 00:29:20.039
front runner for the Best Actress. But Demi Moore, she's

430
00:29:20.079 --> 00:29:22.519
a hot property right now too. You know, she is

431
00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:27.920
killing it on the landman, She's killing it on landing

432
00:29:28.279 --> 00:29:33.640
with the Billy Bob Thornton hit that's just you know,

433
00:29:33.839 --> 00:29:39.640
violent and profane, but it's one of those really great series,

434
00:29:39.680 --> 00:29:42.119
one of those great streaming series by Sheridan that are

435
00:29:42.799 --> 00:29:43.599
just rocking.

436
00:29:44.720 --> 00:29:49.960
So she's you know, she's truly a working actress. And

437
00:29:50.119 --> 00:29:54.119
it isn't it wonderful after all these years to see

438
00:29:54.119 --> 00:29:59.599
her being recognized and to see her getting the acknowledgement

439
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:04.039
and their prestige and it's it's you can just see

440
00:30:04.160 --> 00:30:07.559
in the award ceremonies how everyone in the room is

441
00:30:07.599 --> 00:30:13.400
so happy for her, right Yeah, Yeah, she's she's very beloved,

442
00:30:13.640 --> 00:30:17.960
and of course she has such a loving, caring relationship

443
00:30:18.039 --> 00:30:23.799
for her husband, Bruce Willis, and she's been tremendously supportive

444
00:30:24.079 --> 00:30:31.039
of his situation with his illness. Just a lovely, lovely

445
00:30:31.720 --> 00:30:35.880
representation of what we like to see coming out of Hollywood.

446
00:30:36.319 --> 00:30:39.119
Yeah, she's come a long way from the Amelia Estebez

447
00:30:39.200 --> 00:30:42.720
romance days of her you know teens into her twenties,

448
00:30:42.759 --> 00:30:46.279

so much of it. It's also true, it's so funny.

471
00:32:19.920 --> 00:32:23.440
Right now, let's briefly talk about actors in a supporting role.

472
00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:29.200
You're a Borsava. He was the young oligarch from Russia

473
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:34.079
in Honora, Kieran Culkin of Real Pain, and Edward Norton

474
00:32:34.359 --> 00:32:39.160
A Complete Unknown, Guy, Pierce the Brutalist, and Jeremy Strong

475
00:32:39.319 --> 00:32:45.440
The Apprentice. All five are incredible performances, and so far

476
00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:49.039
during the season Kieren he seems to be getting most

477
00:32:49.079 --> 00:32:49.839
of the awards.

478
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:54.119
And now I'm correct me if I'm wrong, But isn't

479
00:32:54.119 --> 00:32:56.160
he one of the brothers of Home Alone?

480
00:32:57.359 --> 00:33:01.519
Yes, yeah, Colin Fulcan Caulkin, Yeah, that's his younger brother.

481
00:33:02.119 --> 00:33:05.640
And you know, when I've been looking at this list,

482
00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:09.640
there's someone that I think could be a real sleeper here,

483
00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:14.480
and I would say this would be Edward Norton. He

484
00:33:14.519 --> 00:33:20.480
plays Pete Seeker in A Complete Unknown and he nails

485
00:33:20.559 --> 00:33:27.240
that performance. It was just incredible. And another sleeper also

486
00:33:27.279 --> 00:33:30.759
could be Jeremy Strong in The Apprentice, because I mean,

487
00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:34.759
who would expect that? And he came up with an

488
00:33:34.799 --> 00:33:39.319
amazing portrayal of Donald Trump. It was as this could

489
00:33:39.319 --> 00:33:42.440
be a very surprise category for everyone, don't you think

490
00:33:42.720 --> 00:33:43.079
I do?

491
00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:45.640
I think that I think that, you know, some people

492
00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:49.119
are predicting a lot of people are predicting. Hearing we'll

493
00:33:49.480 --> 00:33:52.599
walk away from a point actor, But I'm not so sure.

494
00:33:52.680 --> 00:33:54.519
I think there's a few. As you say, there's so

495
00:33:54.680 --> 00:33:58.000
few real contenders in there, and it's going to be

496
00:33:58.039 --> 00:34:03.160
an interesting out come of the voting of the Academy.

497
00:34:03.279 --> 00:34:05.680
So you know, we can always be surprised and that's

498
00:34:05.680 --> 00:34:06.519
always fun, you know.

499
00:34:08.760 --> 00:34:13.719
And then for actress in the supporting role, Monica Barravo

500
00:34:13.880 --> 00:34:18.000
and a complete unknown and she does Joned Byaz beautifully

501
00:34:18.280 --> 00:34:22.280
and Arianna Grande Wicked. As a matter of fact, we

502
00:34:22.400 --> 00:34:25.159
forgot to talk about Wicked when we were talking about

503
00:34:25.239 --> 00:34:29.639
movies that were nominated. It's it's like going back to

504
00:34:29.679 --> 00:34:34.119
the Wizard of Oz in modern times in a beautiful movie.

505
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:41.719
I know it'll get so many awards. Creative Costume. Then

506
00:34:41.800 --> 00:34:45.239
we have Felicity Jones and the Brutalist and she was

507
00:34:45.639 --> 00:34:50.199
a very strong uh oh it was. She did a

508
00:34:50.320 --> 00:34:53.800
very powerful, powerful performance. And then of course we've already

509
00:34:53.920 --> 00:34:59.039
talked about Isabella Rossini conplay. She just kind of when

510
00:34:59.079 --> 00:35:02.039
she was on the screen, you can she stole the show.

511
00:35:03.760 --> 00:35:07.079
If you can't take your eyes off of And to

512
00:35:07.159 --> 00:35:12.119
give Ariana Grande her props, yes, you know, she is

513
00:35:12.280 --> 00:35:16.800
such an amazing talent. She's a terrific little singer, and

514
00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:19.159
she did a great job. She did a great job

515
00:35:19.159 --> 00:35:23.920
in Wicked and she I have seen her, actually, I've

516
00:35:23.960 --> 00:35:26.400
seen her on some of the late night shows, and

517
00:35:26.440 --> 00:35:30.119
she can impersonate. She has the ability to impersonate to

518
00:35:30.320 --> 00:35:36.440
a t all kinds of other female singers, and she's remarkable.

519
00:35:36.480 --> 00:35:39.519
She's a chameleon. She is a young chameleon. And the

520
00:35:39.519 --> 00:35:42.719
fact that she is. She's a good comedian, she's a

521
00:35:42.719 --> 00:35:45.679
fabrio singer. She's got an adorable look all her own,

522
00:35:46.079 --> 00:35:49.280
but she has she has depth to her people are

523
00:35:49.280 --> 00:35:51.960
not aware of. They just are not aware of how

524
00:35:52.000 --> 00:35:53.119
deep her talent goes.

525
00:35:53.800 --> 00:35:56.800
Oh yeah, she's and she's started off as she's another

526
00:35:56.880 --> 00:36:00.480
one who is a very young young child actor. And

527
00:36:00.559 --> 00:36:05.039
so she's along the way. She's paid her dues. Now

528
00:36:05.119 --> 00:36:09.840
someone in uh Amelia Perez who has been getting most

529
00:36:09.920 --> 00:36:16.199
of the awards and so ada she is acting, singing, dancing.

530
00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:18.119
What a performance she gives.

531
00:36:18.480 --> 00:36:21.840
And she's a particular favorite of mine. I really like.

532
00:36:23.840 --> 00:36:28.159
Yeah, yeah, she's so versatile, so versatile, and it's so

533
00:36:28.320 --> 00:36:31.920
wonderful because I don't believe any of these scales have

534
00:36:32.119 --> 00:36:34.199
been nominated before.

535
00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:40.840
Uh she might she might see us some Emmy nominations

536
00:36:40.840 --> 00:36:45.880
for some of her television work. Yeah, is another one

537
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:49.960
that is one of those sleeper streaming hits that people

538
00:36:50.039 --> 00:36:52.719
now are chomping at the bit for the next next season.

539
00:36:52.760 --> 00:36:54.800
Give us the next season to next season, just like

540
00:36:55.280 --> 00:36:59.480
Man with Them to be more Billy Bob Thornton.

541
00:36:59.679 --> 00:37:04.360
So oh yeah, it's wonderful though. I've just enjoyed this

542
00:37:04.480 --> 00:37:07.320
so much and for me, for my husband and I,

543
00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:09.840
going to see it on the big screen is what

544
00:37:09.920 --> 00:37:10.599
it's all about.

545
00:37:11.679 --> 00:37:14.079
I'm a big screen fan. If I'm going to see

546
00:37:14.119 --> 00:37:15.480
a movie, that's where I want to see it. But

547
00:37:15.960 --> 00:37:18.599
I'm not a big screen snob. I really love to

548
00:37:18.639 --> 00:37:21.880
watch Netflix and Hulu and in the entire amount and

549
00:37:21.920 --> 00:37:24.519
all of them. You know, I've got favorites on each one.

550
00:37:24.559 --> 00:37:27.159
And Prime. What's really surprised me has been Prime some

551
00:37:27.199 --> 00:37:29.119
of the movies that they put on and some of

552
00:37:29.119 --> 00:37:32.400
the streaming series that are all original to They are

553
00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:36.199
mini movies. Every episode is like a mini movie. So

554
00:37:36.840 --> 00:37:38.400
there's a lot of talent and there's a lot of

555
00:37:38.440 --> 00:37:41.559
skill out there in the entertainment field right now, between

556
00:37:41.559 --> 00:37:42.559
movies and streaming.

557
00:37:43.800 --> 00:37:46.760
Well, yeah, and I think that we're lucky that we

558
00:37:46.800 --> 00:37:49.599
can we have the options. We can go to the

559
00:37:49.719 --> 00:37:54.159
movie theater and we always go on Tuesdays for the matinees,

560
00:37:56.360 --> 00:38:03.000
and it's been wonderful to see everyone perform the Now.

561
00:38:03.039 --> 00:38:07.039
As far as let's talk about actors in a leading role,

562
00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:15.119
Adrian Brody of course far Actually, yeah, he's gotten quite

563
00:38:15.119 --> 00:38:19.400
a few awards. Timothy Leonette, he's also a complete unknown.

564
00:38:20.000 --> 00:38:28.840
Coleman Domingo singsing amazing performance. Ralph Fines Conclave and Sebastian

565
00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:33.000
Stan The Apprentice. He did an incredible job too, And

566
00:38:33.079 --> 00:38:37.920
he thoughts about who's your favorite in this category? I

567
00:38:38.039 --> 00:38:38.360
kind of.

568
00:38:38.440 --> 00:38:41.159
I really like Ray Fines. I think he's a I

569
00:38:41.199 --> 00:38:46.079
think he's an incredible actor, and he's a very he

570
00:38:46.159 --> 00:38:49.400
tends to be a very low key actor. You know,

571
00:38:49.480 --> 00:38:53.280
he's not a screaming, jumping, yelling, emoting, crying. He's not.

572
00:38:53.719 --> 00:38:58.280
He's a he's got death. Maybe that word comes out

573
00:38:58.320 --> 00:38:59.719
of me too often, but I look for that in

574
00:38:59.800 --> 00:39:04.079
act where they have a depth of character that gives

575
00:39:04.079 --> 00:39:05.719
them a present. It's kind of like what you're saying

576
00:39:05.719 --> 00:39:10.239
about Isabella Rosalini. She has such a depth of character.

577
00:39:11.039 --> 00:39:15.039
Oh yeah, they own the camera when they're on they

578
00:39:15.119 --> 00:39:17.519
own it, and they don't upstage. I don't mean it

579
00:39:17.519 --> 00:39:20.239
that way. They're not upstaging actors. They just have a

580
00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:23.239
presence about them. And there's a lot of good ones

581
00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:26.400
in there, and the sleepers can always surprise us.

582
00:39:26.639 --> 00:39:33.480
So that's what makes it so much fun. I remember

583
00:39:34.159 --> 00:39:36.599
years ago, our friends, we used to always have an

584
00:39:36.679 --> 00:39:41.559
Oscar night party and with guys would wear their toesedos

585
00:39:41.639 --> 00:39:44.599
and get all of our outfits and dressed up and

586
00:39:44.840 --> 00:39:48.639
have champagne and watch the Oscars and we would It

587
00:39:48.639 --> 00:39:51.360
would be a real happening for us. It was so

588
00:39:51.440 --> 00:39:52.480
much fun.

589
00:39:52.400 --> 00:39:55.480
And everybody would everybody would put their little votes in

590
00:39:55.559 --> 00:39:57.880
and you you know, you have your own little mini

591
00:39:57.960 --> 00:40:02.719
Oscar selections. Everybody across when what they what they liked

592
00:40:02.760 --> 00:40:05.639
most never won. There's a lot of there's a lot

593
00:40:05.679 --> 00:40:08.639
of people that say that about nothing. I really really

594
00:40:08.719 --> 00:40:13.039
like ever wins, you're bizarre or whatever. But we'll see

595
00:40:13.239 --> 00:40:14.000
there's a lot to like.

596
00:40:14.960 --> 00:40:17.719
Mos got a girl. Be fun because Brody won the

597
00:40:17.719 --> 00:40:22.280
Golden Gull and I think that it's going to come

598
00:40:22.360 --> 00:40:26.800
between him and Ralph Finds and either one. I'd be

599
00:40:26.920 --> 00:40:29.440
happy to see either one of them walk home with

600
00:40:29.559 --> 00:40:30.800
that statue.

601
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:36.840
It's true. Yeah, and so if someone and some of

602
00:40:36.840 --> 00:40:40.280
our actresses, I would like to see Isabella Rosselini take it,

603
00:40:40.480 --> 00:40:45.280
just because she's kind of the She's not unrecognized, she's

604
00:40:45.440 --> 00:40:48.800
renowned for her talent, but you know it's her time.

605
00:40:49.800 --> 00:40:54.079
Yeah. Yeah. So then for the what's your thoughts for

606
00:40:54.280 --> 00:41:00.719
actress and leading grow, We've got Cynthia Ebria wick In,

607
00:41:01.079 --> 00:41:06.960
Carlo Sophia Gascon and Melia Perez, Mikey Madison and Nora

608
00:41:07.199 --> 00:41:11.320
She's adorable. Mike Y. I love the name Mikey Madison.

609
00:41:12.920 --> 00:41:17.960
You gotta wonder does Mikey stand for MICHAELA or Michelina

610
00:41:18.360 --> 00:41:19.880
or I mean, there's a lot of things to be

611
00:41:19.880 --> 00:41:21.519
I don't know what a real name is, but Mike's

612
00:41:21.559 --> 00:41:22.159
awful cute.

613
00:41:22.840 --> 00:41:27.559
Yeah, And then of course there's Demi Moore for The Substance, which,

614
00:41:27.719 --> 00:41:30.920
you know, the Substance that was kind of a dark movie,

615
00:41:32.960 --> 00:41:33.119
you know.

616
00:41:33.199 --> 00:41:37.079
I think Demi Moore is she's got talent just flowing

617
00:41:37.159 --> 00:41:41.039
out of her like a river. But I think you'll

618
00:41:41.079 --> 00:41:46.360
probably see, well, you know, I'm thinking that Carlos Sophia

619
00:41:46.400 --> 00:41:51.639
Gascon has a really good shot for Amelia Perez, but

620
00:41:51.719 --> 00:41:54.559
I think that Fernando Torrez is probably gonna take it.

621
00:41:55.639 --> 00:42:01.039
Yeah, yeah, she's spoke about her earlier. I'm still here.

622
00:42:01.239 --> 00:42:04.719
What a performance. And it's like, you know, as you

623
00:42:04.840 --> 00:42:09.320
see these working actresses who have worked years and years

624
00:42:09.480 --> 00:42:12.360
and as we you know, they've paid their dues, they've

625
00:42:12.400 --> 00:42:15.599
done what they've had to do, and when they finally

626
00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:20.800
get a role like that's so exciting. And as we

627
00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:24.480
see with Demi Moore and also Fernande and all of them,

628
00:42:24.519 --> 00:42:28.800
it's an amazing thing for their career and it just

629
00:42:28.880 --> 00:42:35.800
gives them such a status to have that, you know,

630
00:42:36.039 --> 00:42:39.760
even being just nominated, it's just amazing what it'll do

631
00:42:39.880 --> 00:42:41.440
for their careers. It is.

632
00:42:41.519 --> 00:42:43.840
And when you hear them up there at the awards

633
00:42:43.920 --> 00:42:46.800
or something, or when they're being interviewed when they didn't win,

634
00:42:47.320 --> 00:42:49.440
and everyone will say, oh, you know, it's just an

635
00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:53.639
honor to be nominated. It's true. It's not just all

636
00:42:53.800 --> 00:42:56.039
I'm a loser and I'm trying to say something nice

637
00:42:56.159 --> 00:42:57.960
and I don't really feel that way and I'm mad

638
00:42:58.199 --> 00:42:59.840
and I should have wanted you know, it's not that

639
00:43:00.079 --> 00:43:03.400
at all. It is an honor to be nominated and

640
00:43:03.960 --> 00:43:07.559
to be an Academy Award nominee is great on their credentials.

641
00:43:07.559 --> 00:43:09.639
Whether they are the winner or not, they're still a

642
00:43:09.679 --> 00:43:12.760
winner because they were in that circle. They're in the.

643
00:43:14.840 --> 00:43:21.280
And uh, you know, as far as best Picture, where

644
00:43:21.320 --> 00:43:23.840
would you put your vote if you could just vote

645
00:43:23.880 --> 00:43:25.320
won one picture?

646
00:43:26.000 --> 00:43:32.960
Oh, gollie, I I think kind of like to Complete Unknown,

647
00:43:33.039 --> 00:43:36.119
but it doesn't stand a chance, you know, I kind

648
00:43:36.119 --> 00:43:37.320
of like to Complete Unknown.

649
00:43:37.679 --> 00:43:42.920
I think that I think, I don't know. I think

650
00:43:42.960 --> 00:43:48.400
a Nora will probably surprise people. I think that I'm

651
00:43:48.440 --> 00:43:51.480
still here is pretty remarkable. I mean, there is a

652
00:43:51.719 --> 00:43:55.400
heck of a lineup this year. I think they are favored,

653
00:43:55.480 --> 00:43:58.480
but I really like the Complete Unknown just my own

654
00:43:58.559 --> 00:43:59.800
personal favorite.

655
00:44:00.320 --> 00:44:04.239
Okay, well it's it's it's a tremendous competitive field. They're

656
00:44:04.239 --> 00:44:09.519
all wonderful and gosh, I've been sure enjoyed this season watching. Actually,

657
00:44:09.599 --> 00:44:14.599
if I had to pick the one, it would be Conclave,

658
00:44:15.280 --> 00:44:20.519
because yeah, yeah, we just we were Mersey. We couldn't

659
00:44:20.519 --> 00:44:23.559
take our eyes off the screen. We had no idea

660
00:44:23.679 --> 00:44:27.000
where it was headed and where it was going, and

661
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:32.280
it had such a powerful message and of course it's

662
00:44:32.400 --> 00:44:36.000
it's a powerful story. Whenever you're dealing with talking about

663
00:44:36.000 --> 00:44:42.920
the Catholic Church. You're it's powerful, no questions about it.

664
00:44:43.599 --> 00:44:47.119
Well, and you know they take a looking and keep

665
00:44:47.159 --> 00:44:49.960
on ticking. What can you say?

666
00:44:51.639 --> 00:44:54.920
Yeah, so, what are you going to do Oscar night?

667
00:44:55.000 --> 00:44:56.800
Do you have any plans? Are you going to host

668
00:44:56.800 --> 00:44:57.760
a party.

669
00:44:57.599 --> 00:45:02.000
Or you know, I've got a husband recovering from surgery

670
00:45:02.119 --> 00:45:06.400
and he's not quite up yet to having a whoopy

671
00:45:06.480 --> 00:45:08.960
do time, and an Oscar party should be a whoopy

672
00:45:09.039 --> 00:45:13.000
do time. So, oh yeah, it'll be a quiet Oscars

673
00:45:13.079 --> 00:45:17.159
night for us. We'll watch we'll probably watch more of

674
00:45:17.400 --> 00:45:21.719
the films that we can prior to it Sunday, but

675
00:45:21.880 --> 00:45:26.039
I'll you know, ninety seventh, the ninety seventh Oscars, it's

676
00:45:26.079 --> 00:45:26.679
hard to believe.

677
00:45:27.800 --> 00:45:29.639
Yeah, I have a book.

678
00:45:30.239 --> 00:45:32.760
On the Oscars, but it's at the fifty year mark,

679
00:45:33.000 --> 00:45:35.039
the fifty year University of the Oscars. I have a big,

680
00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:38.960
you know, coffee table book that's pretty interesting. Well one

681
00:45:39.000 --> 00:45:41.320
hundred one, you know, at thee hundred belt year market.

682
00:45:41.639 --> 00:45:44.239
Well we're headed towards one hundred, and I thought it

683
00:45:44.280 --> 00:45:48.119
was particularly we know, we lived in California for forty

684
00:45:48.199 --> 00:45:53.119
years and very near Hollywood and the whole industry, and

685
00:45:53.320 --> 00:45:58.400
I was just so pleased to see how everyone bounced

686
00:45:58.440 --> 00:46:04.000
back from the devist fires and the devastation, Like some

687
00:46:04.039 --> 00:46:08.840
of those people in that audience literally are homeless. They

688
00:46:08.960 --> 00:46:14.800
literally watched their homes burn to the around their possessions,

689
00:46:14.880 --> 00:46:18.719
and they've lost so much, so much, and everyone bounced

690
00:46:18.719 --> 00:46:22.719
back and then they've given so much. I noticed that

691
00:46:22.840 --> 00:46:26.079
all the other shows, they've given so much credit and

692
00:46:26.199 --> 00:46:32.199
thanks to the firefighters and the emergency people that were

693
00:46:32.199 --> 00:46:35.760
there to help them get through it. It's been a

694
00:46:35.880 --> 00:46:38.920
devastating year for that industry, truly.

695
00:46:39.760 --> 00:46:45.280
Well, it's been a devastating year for communities in various

696
00:46:45.760 --> 00:46:49.800
North Carolina South Carolina. But La really really took it.

697
00:46:50.199 --> 00:46:53.000
They really, you know, they really took a blow. And

698
00:46:53.519 --> 00:46:57.239
it's such a it's such an iconic state. The entire

699
00:46:57.239 --> 00:47:00.840
state is such an iconic state, and it destroyed so

700
00:47:01.000 --> 00:47:06.480
much in so many areas. And I don't know, I

701
00:47:06.480 --> 00:47:10.480
hope that they can come up with better game plans

702
00:47:10.519 --> 00:47:13.440
in the future so when they get rebuilt, it doesn't

703
00:47:13.480 --> 00:47:15.000
happen to this extent again.

704
00:47:16.119 --> 00:47:21.440
Yeah. Yeah, so many of the Pacific Palisades area, that

705
00:47:21.519 --> 00:47:24.800
whole thing was just burned down. Tragedy. We still have

706
00:47:25.440 --> 00:47:29.599
one daughter who lives out there, and having been there

707
00:47:29.639 --> 00:47:32.239
for forty years, our hearts are there because we know

708
00:47:32.400 --> 00:47:36.239
so many of the people and so many of the places.

709
00:47:36.360 --> 00:47:38.880
You exceed them on TV and you go, oh, well,

710
00:47:38.880 --> 00:47:40.519
we've been there. We've been there, and.

711
00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:45.239
We rode our motorcycle up and down, you know, past

712
00:47:45.320 --> 00:47:50.559
month and up and down you know the highway one

713
00:47:50.639 --> 00:47:54.639
day and how many I was when before COVID, before

714
00:47:54.639 --> 00:47:57.440
they shut down the film commission. Golly, I was in

715
00:47:57.559 --> 00:48:00.639
La four to six times a year every year. And

716
00:48:00.679 --> 00:48:02.320
a lot of friends out there, a lot of friends

717
00:48:02.360 --> 00:48:04.639
in the industry and a lot of just friend friends.

718
00:48:04.880 --> 00:48:07.000
So hard.

719
00:48:08.760 --> 00:48:11.400

00:48:11.519 --> 00:48:15.719
