All right, Ellis send them aback, another, a dish. How
(01:27):
we doing out there? Good?Great Gray yan a Yane puke. As
you see on your screen, yourdial, however, you're choosing to join
us today. I know the castand crew of this film appreciate you,
even though they don't need me topromote their shit. But sometimes, listen,
gang, I like doing films thatyou may not be inclined to watch.
(01:49):
Not that you know a lot ofthe females that listen to this aren't
going to run out and see thenew Kristen Stewart film, but you know
they probably already are. But someof you uncultured swine need to be pushed.
That's what it comes down to.So your boy is here to give
you a little bush, give youa little push, so as you see
on your screen your dial. LoveLies Bleeding by Rose Glass from director Rose
(02:15):
Glass comes an electric new love story. Reclusive gym manager Lou falls hard for
Jackie, an ambitious bodybuilder headed throughtown to Vegas in pursuit of her dream,
which is to enter a bodybuilding contest. But their love ignites violence,
pulling them deep into the web ofLou's criminal family. Now I understand that
(02:38):
this isn't a kung fu action flicklike some of you have become accustomed to
me talking about, but it neededto be talked about. I think there's
this This is one of those filmswhere you gotta go out and see Rose
Glass's vision. I think she isa sending into a very authentic and soon
(03:05):
to be must watch filmmaker. Yeah, that's right, I said it.
You know, I know some ofyou, you know, half the crowd
out here is like watching Love LiesBleeding. It's gay, it's about two
lesbians. It's gay. No,you're gay, you know, be on
the right side of history. Andjust so we're clear, Yeah, you
know, Kristen Stewart and Katie O'Brienhave a love affair in this. Yeah.
(03:29):
And you want to know something,I think Rose does it in a
way where I'm not even thinking abouttheir sexual preference. Not to me,
I mean, because how's the bestway to put this? So when I
got done watching Love Lies Bleeding,you want to know what I thought?
It really reminded me of you guys. Remember a History of Violence? Remember
(03:54):
that one with Vigo Mortensen. Historyof Violence? That's kind of know what
this movie feels like to me,it is very raw, very dirty,
very grimy and also steamy, dresseddown organize crime flick. I mean,
if you think about it, youknow, like, but their love ignites
(04:16):
violence, pulling them deep into theweb of lose criminal family and the dad
who runs the criminal family played byEd Harris, great Dave Franco in this,
sleazy, fantastic Kristen Stewart in this. And this is coming from someone
you know. I urge you allto evolve as time goes on in your
(04:42):
life because many many years ago,I as a big horror fan that I
am, I kind of shit onTwilight, like a lot of us horror
fans. Did you know, thego to line I always said was my
dead don't sparkle. So by proxydue to that toxic thinking, not that
(05:04):
not that I'm ever going to sitdown and watch Twilight. It's not for
me. That you know, it'sten years ago I probably would have been
like, bucked that movie, it'sstupid. And now just listen, it's
not for me, you know,that's for tweens, you know, and
and there's a place for those filmsfor tweens. So don't think that I'm
banging on it. It's it's likewhen people ask me how I felt about
(05:28):
the Marvel TV show, Miss missMarvel, Oh, it was like,
and these are men. This iswhy I get so upset at some of
my circle of friends. But theseare men that are like I thought miss
Miss Marvel was stupid. It's like, bro, it's it's for nine to
(05:49):
thirteen year old girls. It's notfor you. I thought She Hulk was
stupid. Dude, you're a thirtysix year old white male. It's that's
not for you. So how aboutthis. Instead of thinking that the content
should be fucking directed towards you,you take a step back and go,
huh. You know, from atechnical aspect, this is fucking really well
(06:11):
made, which Ms Marvel was reallywell made. Love life is bleeding.
I kind of feel the same thing. Like I don't know if I've watched
so many movies or if I'm soculturally evolved. I actually I attribute the
way that I think is just growingup with two special ed teacher parents.
(06:33):
That's you know, accepting everybody fromblah blah blah. That's why when people
talk about, you know, theirheterosexuality or you know, whatever their sexuality
is I'm bored by it. I'mbored. I don't give a fuck who
you love, who you date,what your preferences are, Oh my god,
(06:54):
snore. In fact, I thinkwe've gotten to the point culturally where
it's it. Can Can we haveanother conversation because it kind of sounds like
everybody's being fucking selfish. Me,me, me, look at me.
This is what I want, thisis what I want. And then there's
people like me that are accepting toall that nonsense garbage that everybody wants to
fucking repeat at nauseum. And I'mover here just going I don't fucking care.
(07:18):
But I look at some of thereviews for Love Lies Bleeding and I
can't figure out anymore. And again, a lot of this is just because
I'm a stupid person, but Ican't fucking figure out anymore if people are
just being trolls for the sake oftrolls, Like there's no way that this
movie that's sitting currently at ninety fourpercent on Rotten Tomatoes and for all of
(07:41):
you, that's like fuck broughten tomatoes. I don't blah blah blah they pay
blah blah blah in my experience andI watch far more movies than you fucking
do. I probably watch more moviesin two weeks than you do the entire
year. And what I can sayabout rotten Tomatoes, Nah, more often
than not, the score is right. If a movie's eighty percent, I
walk out going, yeah, that'sa IB or a low B high see.
(08:03):
You know, more often than not, it's always in the realm,
you know, unless we're talking likeold eighties horror films or something, when
those things are coming in at twentyfive, twenty six percent, you know,
then it just comes down to tasepersonal taste. But more often than
not it's spot on. And thenyou go to stuff like Letterbox and there's
(08:24):
an overwhelming response, of overwhelming positiveresponse to Love Lies Bleeding. But there's
also the fucking just meatheads, Likefor the men that shit on this movie,
that went out that went out tosee this movie, did you go
just so you could come out andshit on it? Because that's what it
(08:45):
feels like sometimes in this movie,Like I'm not giving it five stars out
of five stars. I give ita three and a half four, easy,
easy one, because I like howrose Glass almost kind of spit on
(09:07):
the idea of what a strong femalecharacter should be. Like, I listen,
if you are still like using thatphrase, like if you're into film,
into TV, blah blah blah,into art in general, and you're
still using the phrase, we needmore of a strong female presence, you
bore me, because the fact ofthe matter is is something like this,
(09:31):
I'm paying attention to the character,Like Kristin Stewart's character is just written really
fucking well, Katie O'Brien's character isjust written really fucking well. It wouldn't
matter to me if it was aman or a woman that played those fucking
characters. It would still look goodon screen. You want to know what's
more effect? And I know halfthe crowd listening to this right now,
(09:52):
you guys are all entertained by specialeffects and bright Like I hate to shit
on you, but the fact ofthe matter is that the stats speak for
themselves. You guys a all likethe fucking bright flashing lights blah blah blah
blah blah. You all love thatshit, and well, and then you
don't all of a sudden, likeI don't understand how Marvel just became like
the biggest fucking thing ever. Andnow everybody's like Buck Marvel, now,
(10:13):
man, just go on and havea little fun, have a little fun,
but back to the whole, likedestroying, like what a strong female
presence should look like. That maybe one of my favorite aspects of the
movies because it's ignored. We don'ttalk about it. There's just strong female
(10:35):
presence on screen, but they're sounique to what their character, the character
of lou Is or the character ofJackie played by Katie O'Brien is. Let's
go down the cast a little bit. Here. We got Anna Beshnikov,
Anna Barishnikov who plays Daisy Hateable.Her bitch ass is hateable, and that's
(10:58):
just a testament. I'll get heract was Dave Franco plays JJ Hatible.
What a fucking slimy piece of shitHatible love Dave Franco. I think Dave
Franco uh just did a really goodjob in his directorial debut as well.
Jenna Malone who we all know,who plays Beth. What do you guys
(11:20):
know Jenna Malone from Hunger Games,Neon Demon Contact? Now? What did
I see in her when I wasgrowing up? That I was when I
was just a young lad, whenI was just a young lad. Inherent
vice and hear and vice. Igotta do a fucking show about inherent advice.
Sucker punch. She was in Meshia. No, what did I see
(11:41):
Jenna in growing up that I usedto watch all the time? Come in,
Come in. I can't find it. I'm a piece of shit.
Nope, for the love of game, no good movie though. Donnie Darko
overrated. I'm gonna get a lotof hate mail for that. It is.
I'm sorry Donnie Darko is over Youwhore crowd are so fucking you pissed
(12:03):
me off. Oh. She wasalso in The Ruins. I actually thought
The Ruins was fun too, Idid anyway. Gennlem alone in it.
Ed Harris, who plays Lou verysmall, you know, just like an
A twenty four film, is smalland fucking bizarre. It's I thought,
(12:24):
I literally there are some moments inthere that are clearly not for me,
but like, I don't care,they still worked. Between Rose Glass and
Veronica tull Filska. Veronica til Filska'sscript it is it has a attention to
(12:46):
detail in the subtleties of the charactersthat I don't think that we get very
often and you'll have to. Ofcourse, everything today is going to be
spoiler free because I don't have anyguests on. But you be the judge.
I just thought, from top tobottom, this film works well.
(13:09):
If if it were top to bottom, why don't you give it a five
star? Because five stars are reservedfor fucking Fury Road. Five stars are
just just whatever, just no countryfor old men again, stuff that Coen
Brothers stuff, stuff that appeals thatyou know, hits every chord for me,
(13:31):
you know. And it's not tosay that this can't. I just
thought. The only reason I didn't, I'll just be flat out with you.
I think the only reason I didn'tgive it five stars is that towards
the end of Act three, Ijust thought that there was some artistic decisions
that I wasn't I wasn't fully onboard with. For those of you that
have seen it, I can saysomething. What can I say without spoiling
(13:54):
the cloud sequence. I'm not gonnasay what they're doing, but the cloud
sequence, like, to me,that was just such a bizarre thing to
do in that moment. But everythingprior to that worked, which is why
I didn't give a shit, LikeI am not one of these people's that
operates under the assumption of what haveyou done for me lately? You know,
(14:18):
I think far too often, notonly in life but specifically in movies,
you get hung up on the endingthat I can't tell you how many
fucking reviews I've read, not necessarilyfor this one, but how many fucking
reviews that I've sat or read wherepeople are like loved it, loved it,
saw the end, hated it,and it's like, well, wait
a minute. You know, like, let's use Shindler's List as an example.
(14:41):
I could understand if you were likelove Schindler's List until Act three and
a pink elephant came out of nowhereand killed all the Nazis. All right,
fucking we had the egg. Doyou guys kind of see the leap
that I'm making, Like, wedefinitely had this historical piece and then it
was derailed by something completely fantastical.Okay, I understand that, you know,
(15:01):
like a biopic or something like that, but something like this, which
is you can kind of feel theweirdness in just how bizarre it is from
the jump. I wasn't too madat the ending, but you know,
going back to the what have youdone for me lately. Let's just again
Shindler's List, So you're gonna tellme the two hours and twenty minutes prior
(15:22):
to that that was all strong,But because the pink elephant came out,
you fucking it's a shit film.No, it may be misdirection, but
it's not a shit film. Andthat's how I feel about this everything leading
up to some of those moments inAct three, it's it's about as good
as it gets. And if youtalk about someone who's only got a couple
films on her belt, under herbelt with Rose Glass, I mean she
(15:46):
was catapulted with Saint Maud, whicheverybody loved, but prior to that we
have shorts gang. Do you haveany idea how hard it is to go
from Saint Maud to an A twentyfour production? Do you have any idea
you know, for a song moreeffort? I'm shit, Holy shit.
It was really really fucking good.But I digress a little bit. It
(16:10):
does there in terms of the tone, it reminded me a lot of history
of violence, and which is funnyabout history of violence because I've actually seen
a couple of reviews on this onefor Love Lies Bleeding that say, Rose
(16:33):
did a good job at depicting bodyhorror as as effectively as David Cronenberg.
You want to know what's funny?A history of violence? David Cronenberg.
So it's it's kind of funny becauseI didn't read anything prior to it,
(16:53):
but like when the credits rolled onthis, I was like, dude,
that was like an updated history ofviolence with women, and I'm here for
it. We do like, I'mnot one of these people that gets upset
like, oh, we're just we'regonna take our classics and put women in
it. First of all, men, you got a chill, like,
(17:14):
yes, do you have any idea? I mean, it's it's weird to
have conversations with people that don't understand. There has been a white face,
you know. And obviously you couldmake the argument that cinema and music and
books don't have the same hierarchy asthey used to. I believe Seinfeld just
came out and said that. Butwhen they did come on, man,
(17:37):
it was it was a it wasa white face, you know. And
I know that some of you trolls, just to be trolls, will be
Christian Stewart's white face. Yeah,but Kristin Stewart. Stewart is about as
bizarre as they come. Is KristinStewart. Like Kristin Stewart is a superstar,
much like Jennifer Aniston is right,completely different sets surround them. So
(17:59):
if you say, oh, it'sjust another white woman, yeah, but
it's not. It's not the highwell she does have high giap boe,
but it's not the blue eyed,blonde haired person that we had for forty
years. And same with the fuckingmen, Like, I don't mind if
we repackage stuff with a woman init, because here's what I do know.
Okay, if it is not thesame filmmaker doing it. You know,
(18:22):
let's let's say they redid history ofViolence and and Cronenberg is not the
director, but let's say in thisinstance, Rose Glass or whoever else is
the writer director. I know,going into it, the whether or not
they put females in the leads ofsomething that we already knew that was tried
and true, it is still goingto be a different perspective that we haven't
(18:45):
seen. Sure, there may bescenes that are ripped, you know,
beat for beat because it is aremaker or whatever, but it's still going
to be a different perspective than Ihad going into it. Does that make
sense to you? Or am Ijust babbling? I think I'm just as
I've told you in the past,like forty five podcasts, I probably shouldn't
do this anymore. I'm realizing whenI listen to other people's podcasts, I
(19:07):
know movies and you don't by KyleBrule or fucking the director's chair, I
realize I'm a dullard. I'm anidiot. I don't, I don't,
I can't. I'm not as articulateas those that do have a show.
The only thing that I can dois sound kind of cool anyway, anyway,
(19:32):
lots to love in love lies bleeding, okay, don't you know.
Don't come out of that pissed off, you know, because it does kind
of derail in there. I mentionedKristen Stewart. If you guys don't know
Katie O'Brien is, she was inThe Mandalorian, she was in ant Man,
in the Wasp, Agents of ShieldWest World, but her most notable
(19:56):
would be uh ant Man and theMandaloria, and that's what you would have
seen her from most recently. She'sno good, dirty bitch in the Mandalorian,
She's goddamn turncoat. Ed Harris.We all know and love I talked
about gentlemen alone. I talked aboutDave Franco. So let's take a look
at some of these reviews, becausey'all know that I really like going down
(20:22):
and reading these for the first timewith you, so I can react either
positively or negatively to what some peopleare saying. So what do we got
here. Let's go to tap critics, Let's find some well, we can
do all of them. Wow,they're all overwhelmingly positive. So what do
we got here that people that canbetter than me can articulate it better than
(20:45):
this movie. This is a moviethat we'll find its people, and once
it does, cult status is moreor less assured. Yes, you want
to know what the bummer thing is? Though, I think it's going to
be a cult classic in the LGBTQcommunity, and that sucks because if we
had more learned cinema watchers, itwouldn't have a gender assigned to it.
(21:11):
You would just think it stood wellon its own, regardless of who the
fucking characters and who was playing themwas in it. This film is that
it's most fun and original when itleans into surrealism. I do agree with
that, with the exception of thenon spoiled thing that I said happens in
the end. I believe the wordI use was clouds. The clouds,
(21:33):
So you know, feel free toDM me and tell me what you thought
about that sequence. Glass chooses toswerve this hell hound vehicle off the Beaten
Highway, and as with French bodyhorror Hit Titan to Time, coherence is
thrown to the wind. This isessentially a superior B movie that gets too
(21:55):
pumped up on its own aesthetic steroids. Interesting. I never understand why someone
who writes for the Financial Times,or anyone why the Financial Times has a
movie review section because movie entertainments notif I shut up, shut up,
(22:15):
just stop it. Uh you knowwhat I will say? This is like
Thelma and Louise on steroids. Iwish I could say I was original in
saying that, but I think somebodyelse had said that, and I happen
to agree. The only thing it'smissing Brad Pitt, British filmmaker Rose Glass.
Let's rip with some pere roid ragecinema in this uproarious, horribly violent
(22:38):
and lethally smart, noir thrilled thrillercited in the Venn diagram overlap between bodybuilding,
murder, and sex. I don'tknow if I would say lethally smart,
I would definitely say noir. Iwould definitely say pulpy. But it's
not an overly smart movie. Iwould say, if anything, if we
(23:00):
were going to use the word smart, I would say the casts artistic decisions
were very smart in terms of yankingme in, pulling me in. But
I don't know. I guess ifI think about a smart nowir thriller I
think of I guess no country wouldbe one. Jackie Brown would be one.
(23:23):
Though I'm going to get hate forboth of those. I'm just shitting
on everything Twilight, what else wegot? Glass never gets lost in the
references and mostly dispenses with a legacyin favor of Jackie and lose increasingly gory
strong stomachs required. No, it'snot listen the this is why I like
doing this. Are there some graphicmoments in this film? Sure? In
(23:48):
fact, you know why I gaveit a four instead of a five.
Cg Oh, bummer CG. I'mnot going to tell you who meets their
end and how again, spoiler freezefree, spoiler free. But I didn't
need a fucking strong stomach require,if anything, with the exact other way
(24:11):
strong stomach required to stomach the CGviolence, because, like, come on,
especially since it's not like, yes, it's a violent movie, but
it's not like it's violent from fuckingopening bell to closing credits. So I
could understand if we had to likecut corners from a money standpoint, but
fuck you, fuck you, no, my stomach turned when we had the
(24:37):
use of CG violence. I wouldbe remiss if I did not mention two
other huge players in this film thatI think bring it, bring it to
screen full force, at least aidingin the full force that it hit you
with. The music by Clint Manziel, awesome mansel Manzel, Sorry Sarah,
(25:02):
but Clint fucking goddamn good soundtracks sogood, got that synthy eighties vibe but
very dark. I mean it's eightiessynth horrish almost. And also the cinematography
by Ben Fordsman, who looks good, Babe, looks good. In fact,
I was talking to my chicks sister, who is a colorist in New
(25:25):
York, and I was like yousee you Love Lies Bleeding. Yet first
fucking thing she said was no.But when I saw the trailer, holy
fuck, that looked beautiful. Andthat's a professional colorist. So don't take
my word for it. Just takesomebody who was waiting in the wings to
see it and was hooked solely onthe look of the film. All right,
let's get back to some of thesereviews. See if I can find
(25:47):
anything. Let's go. Let's goto a bad one who hates it.
See when we go to the badones, it's never by anybody good.
It's always by shit that I wouldnever read The Ringer who reads The Ringer
Real views are ee l views.I'm not shitting on you, James or
Adam. I'm just saying, whyis it always the It's never the La
Times or the Chicago Tribune that alwayshas something that always has something negative to
(26:10):
say about something that fans and criticsalike found that that were overly positive about.
Why is it always the fucking noanyway? Adam from The Ringer says,
the best thrillers leave us worn outbut satisfied. At the end of
Love Lies Bleeding, there's only exhaustionand the vague feeling of having been dragged
(26:30):
along on a fast ride to nowhere. In particular, you need to read
your own shit. Dragged along ona fast ride to nowhere. You think
that's negative? I think that's positive. The end of this, the end
end, not some of the strugglesin the third act. The end end.
(26:51):
As the credits begin to roll,so fucking good, say it reminded
me of a Cohen Brothers movie.And guess what a lot of the characters
in Cohen Brothers movies are going.I guess the places they're going nowhere.
You fucking don't. I didn't meanthat, Adam. I don't know you.
I'm sure you're probably a nice guy. I'm just saying, dragged along
(27:12):
on a fast ride to nowhere.Ah, I kind of like that.
I want to go on that fastride to nowhere with lou and Jackie,
who, by the way, KristinStewart, Steamy, Katie O'Brien Steamy in
this, their relationship in this,Steamy really fucking enjoyed it. I don't
think I said it. I thinkI got derailed, as I always do,
(27:33):
because I fucking could you imagine meon cocaine? I would this is
me sober. Could you imagine meon cocaine anyway? One thing I didn't
want to say about Christman Stewart.I wasn't a fan of Kristin Stewart just
because, like again, like shewas in movies that weren't for me.
Right I saw a Shutter original calledLizzie that she was in and I was
(27:55):
like, oh, fuck, Ithink I like Kristin Stewart. She's a
pretty fucking good actress. And sincethen, like I'm not, I don't
believe in guilty pleasures. Gang.You'll never hear me that I even give
credit. I'll tell you justin Bieberstory one time I thought Justin Bieber was
stupid. He's not for me,He's for little girls. I shouldn't listen
to his shit. And then whatwas that tune let Me Love You that
(28:18):
came on? And I went,who is this? And somebody's like Bieber
and I'm like, well, Iguess I'm a Bieber fan. Now I
don't need to front. What pointis it to fucking hold that shit?
Let shout it from the rooftops.We're in the most accepting time you could
possibly be in right now. Shoutit from the rooftops. But anyway,
Kristin Stewart, each film that goeson continues to impress me with her range.
(28:44):
There was a couple times in herewhere I was like, ah,
Kristen, why was that the decision? But again I'm an armchair director.
Fuck me. You know, she'sshe's already successful. What the fuck?
But the point is is that don'tfucking let a preconceived idea hinder you from
growth gang you know, you know, I was on the hate Twilight bandwagon
(29:04):
for a long time and then Ijust realized, oh, it's not for
me, and Kristen Stewart's fine.Same with Robert Pattinson. I was like,
eh, I don't give a shit. And then I think I saw
him in the Lighthouse or something,that Lighthouse Tenant, and I was just
like, is Robert Pattinson good?Yeah, he's fucking good. James from
real views, it's a shame thatfor all the good things Love Lies Bleeding
(29:26):
does. It's a shame for allthe good things Love Lies Bleeding does.
The ending is such a complete disasternow and I would love to pick Rose
Glasses brain on this. I gottathink some of that was by design.
There James. It's supposed to bea complete disaster. They are trying to
get away from you know, Lou'sfather, who is you know, running
(29:51):
guns and just a not a goodperson. You know, has a mass
that almost fucking spoiled that there,but not a good person. So I
don't mind if the intent was forit to be a complete disaster. Now
some of the optics as we rideoff into the sunset, Yeah, you
know, like I, like Isaid, the cloud thing, cloud thing.
(30:14):
I was just kind of like,ah, whatever, But I get
it in terms of it being alove story, you know what I'm saying,
It's just wouldn't have been if Iwas going to do something trippy like
that, that probably wouldn't have beenwhat I decided to do. But again
it's this is, you know,me being an arm t armchair credit Boston
Globe Odie Odie header descended from theBoston Globe. Is what does Odie say?
(30:37):
I generally love noir, gore,kick ass women in the nineteen eighties,
but love Lies Bleeding ladled out avisual stew I did not enjoy consuming.
Hmm. Interesting. Interesting. Ido think there is an element of
it's supposed to make you uncomfortable.There's some very raw shit in this,
(31:03):
and I know that a lot ofthe layman type of fan. The raw
shit that they're that they're going towalk away or at least talk about with
this is the sexuality in it,and I just I don't know, it's
sophomooric. It bores me that,you know, Oh, did you see
how steamy that sex scene was withChristian Stewart and Katie O'Brien. What you
(31:27):
never seen a fucking sex scene before? You know, Like I don't know,
I just it's eh, figure itout, gang, I think you
should check this out. And I'vebeen selling people pretty hard on this one,
(31:47):
mainly because I do think we needto usher in more weird films,
and to me, this one isn'toverallyware. But I use my friends,
my girlfriend whatever is an example,and I can tell that they haven't seen
anything like this to me before.Like even my chick was just like,
oh, that that was steamy.Kristen Stewart, Katie O'Brien, and I'm
(32:08):
over here going, I don't know, that was grimy. That was raw.
I feel like I need a showerafter it, in a good way,
you know, not I like watchingstuff that makes me uncomfortable. And
I mean to me, this filmdidn't make me uncomfortable, but I could
tell that there were moments that myfriends, my friends would be and my
chick was uncomfortable, and they justdon't see stuff like this often. So
(32:30):
what does that tell me? Ah, watch more movies and you will enjoy.
If you were to watch more moviesin life, a movie like this,
you wouldn't. If anything, youwould probably feel like I do.
Oh, it's a really good movie, tried and true tropes that work before
you know the y'all got to getout of this ideology that we need original
(32:53):
shit. I don't think you understandhow hard that is to do these days,
original shit with an ending the it'sgoing to be pleasing to you.
It's too hard, gang. Wehave we have done everything. You know.
What I'm saying now is just tryingto find the story. We've done
everything in terms of like old Greekshit, man versus man, man versus
(33:13):
nature, like we've we've done itall. So this obsession with everything needs
to be authentic and original, andthe ending's gotta blow your fucking mind.
Sixth Scents and night Shadow, Noit doesn't. No, it fucking doesn't.
Sometimes a movie can end where theguy gets the girl or the girl
gets the girl. It's fine.I get, no fire up. The
(33:36):
more of these fucking reviews I read, I just get, how do you
guys watch movies? How do youwatch movies? Anyway? Love Lies Bleeding

directed well directed by Rose Glass.Written by Rose Glass and Veronica Tolfilska,

Gentlemen Alone, and on and onand on and again. The music
by Clint mansel Or Manzell perfect,cinematography by Ben Fordsman amazing. It's just
a good movie, gang top tobottom. So if you saw the trailer
(34:22):
for this and you're one of theFast and Furious gang, that's like not
seeing that gay. You could makethe argument the Fast and Furious is gay
too, So I mean, youknow, just differently. And I've just
been canceled, not because not forsaying gay, but for saying the Fast
and the Furious is gay. Ahshit. Ellis cinema, ellis Cinema was
(34:46):
Loving Loves Lies Bleeding. We needmore films like this. Grimey gang Grimey

Lies Bleeding. Hey Hey Hey,a week out
All right, Ellis send them aback, another, a dish. How
(01:27):
we doing out there? Good?Great Gray yan a Yane puke. As
you see on your screen, yourdial, however, you're choosing to join
us today. I know the castand crew of this film appreciate you,
even though they don't need me topromote their shit. But sometimes, listen,
gang, I like doing films thatyou may not be inclined to watch.
(01:49):
Not that you know a lot ofthe females that listen to this aren't
going to run out and see thenew Kristen Stewart film, but you know
they probably already are. But someof you uncultured swine need to be pushed.
That's what it comes down to.So your boy is here to give
you a little bush, give youa little push, so as you see
on your screen your dial. LoveLies Bleeding by Rose Glass from director Rose
(02:15):
Glass comes an electric new love story. Reclusive gym manager Lou falls hard for
Jackie, an ambitious bodybuilder headed throughtown to Vegas in pursuit of her dream,
which is to enter a bodybuilding contest. But their love ignites violence,
pulling them deep into the web ofLou's criminal family. Now I understand that
(02:38):
this isn't a kung fu action flicklike some of you have become accustomed to
me talking about, but it neededto be talked about. I think there's
this This is one of those filmswhere you gotta go out and see Rose
Glass's vision. I think she isa sending into a very authentic and soon
(03:05):
to be must watch filmmaker. Yeah, that's right, I said it.
You know, I know some ofyou, you know, half the crowd
out here is like watching Love LiesBleeding. It's gay, it's about two
lesbians. It's gay. No,you're gay, you know, be on
the right side of history. Andjust so we're clear, Yeah, you
know, Kristen Stewart and Katie O'Brienhave a love affair in this. Yeah.
(03:29):
And you want to know something,I think Rose does it in a
way where I'm not even thinking abouttheir sexual preference. Not to me,
I mean, because how's the bestway to put this? So when I
got done watching Love Lies Bleeding,you want to know what I thought?
It really reminded me of you guys. Remember a History of Violence? Remember
(03:54):
that one with Vigo Mortensen. Historyof Violence? That's kind of know what
this movie feels like to me,it is very raw, very dirty,
very grimy and also steamy, dresseddown organize crime flick. I mean,
if you think about it, youknow, like, but their love ignites
(04:16):
violence, pulling them deep into theweb of lose criminal family and the dad
who runs the criminal family played byEd Harris, great Dave Franco in this,
sleazy, fantastic Kristen Stewart in this. And this is coming from someone
you know. I urge you allto evolve as time goes on in your
(04:42):
life because many many years ago,I as a big horror fan that I
am, I kind of shit onTwilight, like a lot of us horror
fans. Did you know, thego to line I always said was my
dead don't sparkle. So by proxydue to that toxic thinking, not that
(05:04):
not that I'm ever going to sitdown and watch Twilight. It's not for
me. That you know, it'sten years ago I probably would have been
like, bucked that movie, it'sstupid. And now just listen, it's
not for me, you know,that's for tweens, you know, and
and there's a place for those filmsfor tweens. So don't think that I'm
banging on it. It's it's likewhen people ask me how I felt about
(05:28):
the Marvel TV show, Miss missMarvel, Oh, it was like,
and these are men. This iswhy I get so upset at some of
my circle of friends. But theseare men that are like I thought miss
Miss Marvel was stupid. It's like, bro, it's it's for nine to
(05:49):
thirteen year old girls. It's notfor you. I thought She Hulk was
stupid. Dude, you're a thirtysix year old white male. It's that's
not for you. So how aboutthis. Instead of thinking that the content
should be fucking directed towards you,you take a step back and go,
huh. You know, from atechnical aspect, this is fucking really well
(06:11):
made, which Ms Marvel was reallywell made. Love life is bleeding.
I kind of feel the same thing. Like I don't know if I've watched
so many movies or if I'm soculturally evolved. I actually I attribute the
way that I think is just growingup with two special ed teacher parents.
(06:33):
That's you know, accepting everybody fromblah blah blah. That's why when people
talk about, you know, theirheterosexuality or you know, whatever their sexuality
is I'm bored by it. I'mbored. I don't give a fuck who
you love, who you date,what your preferences are, Oh my god,
(06:54):
snore. In fact, I thinkwe've gotten to the point culturally where
it's it. Can Can we haveanother conversation because it kind of sounds like
everybody's being fucking selfish. Me,me, me, look at me.
This is what I want, thisis what I want. And then there's
people like me that are accepting toall that nonsense garbage that everybody wants to
fucking repeat at nauseum. And I'mover here just going I don't fucking care.
(07:18):
But I look at some of thereviews for Love Lies Bleeding and I
can't figure out anymore. And again, a lot of this is just because
I'm a stupid person, but Ican't fucking figure out anymore if people are
just being trolls for the sake oftrolls, Like there's no way that this
movie that's sitting currently at ninety fourpercent on Rotten Tomatoes and for all of
(07:41):
you, that's like fuck broughten tomatoes. I don't blah blah blah they pay
blah blah blah in my experience andI watch far more movies than you fucking
do. I probably watch more moviesin two weeks than you do the entire
year. And what I can sayabout rotten Tomatoes, Nah, more often
than not, the score is right. If a movie's eighty percent, I
walk out going, yeah, that'sa IB or a low B high see.
(08:03):
You know, more often than not, it's always in the realm,
you know, unless we're talking likeold eighties horror films or something, when
those things are coming in at twentyfive, twenty six percent, you know,
then it just comes down to tasepersonal taste. But more often than
not it's spot on. And thenyou go to stuff like Letterbox and there's
(08:24):
an overwhelming response, of overwhelming positiveresponse to Love Lies Bleeding. But there's
also the fucking just meatheads, Likefor the men that shit on this movie,
that went out that went out tosee this movie, did you go
just so you could come out andshit on it? Because that's what it
(08:45):
feels like sometimes in this movie,Like I'm not giving it five stars out
of five stars. I give ita three and a half four, easy,
easy one, because I like howrose Glass almost kind of spit on
(09:07):
the idea of what a strong femalecharacter should be. Like, I listen,
if you are still like using thatphrase, like if you're into film,
into TV, blah blah blah,into art in general, and you're
still using the phrase, we needmore of a strong female presence, you
bore me, because the fact ofthe matter is is something like this,
(09:31):
I'm paying attention to the character,Like Kristin Stewart's character is just written really
fucking well, Katie O'Brien's character isjust written really fucking well. It wouldn't
matter to me if it was aman or a woman that played those fucking
characters. It would still look goodon screen. You want to know what's
more effect? And I know halfthe crowd listening to this right now,
(09:52):
you guys are all entertained by specialeffects and bright Like I hate to shit
on you, but the fact ofthe matter is that the stats speak for
themselves. You guys a all likethe fucking bright flashing lights blah blah blah
blah blah. You all love thatshit, and well, and then you
don't all of a sudden, likeI don't understand how Marvel just became like
the biggest fucking thing ever. Andnow everybody's like Buck Marvel, now,
(10:13):
man, just go on and havea little fun, have a little fun,
but back to the whole, likedestroying, like what a strong female
presence should look like. That maybe one of my favorite aspects of the
movies because it's ignored. We don'ttalk about it. There's just strong female
(10:35):
presence on screen, but they're sounique to what their character, the character
of lou Is or the character ofJackie played by Katie O'Brien is. Let's
go down the cast a little bit. Here. We got Anna Beshnikov,
Anna Barishnikov who plays Daisy Hateable.Her bitch ass is hateable, and that's
(10:58):
just a testament. I'll get heract was Dave Franco plays JJ Hatible.
What a fucking slimy piece of shitHatible love Dave Franco. I think Dave
Franco uh just did a really goodjob in his directorial debut as well.
Jenna Malone who we all know,who plays Beth. What do you guys
(11:20):
know Jenna Malone from Hunger Games,Neon Demon Contact? Now? What did
I see in her when I wasgrowing up? That I was when I
was just a young lad, whenI was just a young lad. Inherent
vice and hear and vice. Igotta do a fucking show about inherent advice.
Sucker punch. She was in Meshia. No, what did I see
(11:41):
Jenna in growing up that I usedto watch all the time? Come in,
Come in. I can't find it. I'm a piece of shit.
Nope, for the love of game, no good movie though. Donnie Darko
overrated. I'm gonna get a lotof hate mail for that. It is.
I'm sorry Donnie Darko is over Youwhore crowd are so fucking you pissed
(12:03):
me off. Oh. She wasalso in The Ruins. I actually thought
The Ruins was fun too, Idid anyway. Gennlem alone in it.
Ed Harris, who plays Lou verysmall, you know, just like an
A twenty four film, is smalland fucking bizarre. It's I thought,
(12:24):
I literally there are some moments inthere that are clearly not for me,
but like, I don't care,they still worked. Between Rose Glass and
Veronica tull Filska. Veronica til Filska'sscript it is it has a attention to
(12:46):
detail in the subtleties of the charactersthat I don't think that we get very
often and you'll have to. Ofcourse, everything today is going to be
spoiler free because I don't have anyguests on. But you be the judge.
I just thought, from top tobottom, this film works well.
(13:09):
If if it were top to bottom, why don't you give it a five
star? Because five stars are reservedfor fucking Fury Road. Five stars are
just just whatever, just no countryfor old men again, stuff that Coen
Brothers stuff, stuff that appeals thatyou know, hits every chord for me,
(13:31):
you know. And it's not tosay that this can't. I just
thought. The only reason I didn't, I'll just be flat out with you.
I think the only reason I didn'tgive it five stars is that towards
the end of Act three, Ijust thought that there was some artistic decisions
that I wasn't I wasn't fully onboard with. For those of you that
have seen it, I can saysomething. What can I say without spoiling
(13:54):
the cloud sequence. I'm not gonnasay what they're doing, but the cloud
sequence, like, to me,that was just such a bizarre thing to
do in that moment. But everythingprior to that worked, which is why
I didn't give a shit, LikeI am not one of these people's that
operates under the assumption of what haveyou done for me lately? You know,
(14:18):
I think far too often, notonly in life but specifically in movies,
you get hung up on the endingthat I can't tell you how many
fucking reviews I've read, not necessarilyfor this one, but how many fucking
reviews that I've sat or read wherepeople are like loved it, loved it,
saw the end, hated it,and it's like, well, wait
a minute. You know, like, let's use Shindler's List as an example.
(14:41):
I could understand if you were likelove Schindler's List until Act three and
a pink elephant came out of nowhereand killed all the Nazis. All right,
fucking we had the egg. Doyou guys kind of see the leap
that I'm making, Like, wedefinitely had this historical piece and then it
was derailed by something completely fantastical.Okay, I understand that, you know,
(15:01):
like a biopic or something like that, but something like this, which
is you can kind of feel theweirdness in just how bizarre it is from
the jump. I wasn't too madat the ending, but you know,
going back to the what have youdone for me lately. Let's just again
Shindler's List, So you're gonna tellme the two hours and twenty minutes prior
(15:22):
to that that was all strong,But because the pink elephant came out,
you fucking it's a shit film.No, it may be misdirection, but
it's not a shit film. Andthat's how I feel about this everything leading
up to some of those moments inAct three, it's it's about as good
as it gets. And if youtalk about someone who's only got a couple
films on her belt, under herbelt with Rose Glass, I mean she
(15:46):
was catapulted with Saint Maud, whicheverybody loved, but prior to that we
have shorts gang. Do you haveany idea how hard it is to go
from Saint Maud to an A twentyfour production? Do you have any idea
you know, for a song moreeffort? I'm shit, Holy shit.
It was really really fucking good.But I digress a little bit. It
(16:10):
does there in terms of the tone, it reminded me a lot of history
of violence, and which is funnyabout history of violence because I've actually seen
a couple of reviews on this onefor Love Lies Bleeding that say, Rose
(16:33):
did a good job at depicting bodyhorror as as effectively as David Cronenberg.
You want to know what's funny?A history of violence? David Cronenberg.
So it's it's kind of funny becauseI didn't read anything prior to it,
(16:53):
but like when the credits rolled onthis, I was like, dude,
that was like an updated history ofviolence with women, and I'm here for
it. We do like, I'mnot one of these people that gets upset
like, oh, we're just we'regonna take our classics and put women in
it. First of all, men, you got a chill, like,
(17:14):
yes, do you have any idea? I mean, it's it's weird to
have conversations with people that don't understand. There has been a white face,
you know. And obviously you couldmake the argument that cinema and music and
books don't have the same hierarchy asthey used to. I believe Seinfeld just
came out and said that. Butwhen they did come on, man,
(17:37):
it was it was a it wasa white face, you know. And
I know that some of you trolls, just to be trolls, will be
Christian Stewart's white face. Yeah,but Kristin Stewart. Stewart is about as
bizarre as they come. Is KristinStewart. Like Kristin Stewart is a superstar,
much like Jennifer Aniston is right,completely different sets surround them. So
(17:59):
if you say, oh, it'sjust another white woman, yeah, but
it's not. It's not the highwell she does have high giap boe,
but it's not the blue eyed,blonde haired person that we had for forty
years. And same with the fuckingmen, Like, I don't mind if
we repackage stuff with a woman init, because here's what I do know.
Okay, if it is not thesame filmmaker doing it. You know,
(18:22):
let's let's say they redid history ofViolence and and Cronenberg is not the
director, but let's say in thisinstance, Rose Glass or whoever else is
the writer director. I know,going into it, the whether or not
they put females in the leads ofsomething that we already knew that was tried
and true, it is still goingto be a different perspective that we haven't
(18:45):
seen. Sure, there may bescenes that are ripped, you know,
beat for beat because it is aremaker or whatever, but it's still going
to be a different perspective than Ihad going into it. Does that make
sense to you? Or am Ijust babbling? I think I'm just as
I've told you in the past,like forty five podcasts, I probably shouldn't
do this anymore. I'm realizing whenI listen to other people's podcasts, I
(19:07):
know movies and you don't by KyleBrule or fucking the director's chair, I
realize I'm a dullard. I'm anidiot. I don't, I don't,
I can't. I'm not as articulateas those that do have a show.
The only thing that I can dois sound kind of cool anyway, anyway,
(19:32):
lots to love in love lies bleeding, okay, don't you know.
Don't come out of that pissed off, you know, because it does kind
of derail in there. I mentionedKristen Stewart. If you guys don't know
Katie O'Brien is, she was inThe Mandalorian, she was in ant Man,
in the Wasp, Agents of ShieldWest World, but her most notable
(19:56):
would be uh ant Man and theMandaloria, and that's what you would have
seen her from most recently. She'sno good, dirty bitch in the Mandalorian,
She's goddamn turncoat. Ed Harris.We all know and love I talked
about gentlemen alone. I talked aboutDave Franco. So let's take a look
at some of these reviews, becausey'all know that I really like going down
(20:22):
and reading these for the first timewith you, so I can react either
positively or negatively to what some peopleare saying. So what do we got
here. Let's go to tap critics, Let's find some well, we can
do all of them. Wow,they're all overwhelmingly positive. So what do
we got here that people that canbetter than me can articulate it better than
(20:45):
this movie. This is a moviethat we'll find its people, and once
it does, cult status is moreor less assured. Yes, you want
to know what the bummer thing is? Though, I think it's going to
be a cult classic in the LGBTQcommunity, and that sucks because if we
had more learned cinema watchers, itwouldn't have a gender assigned to it.
(21:11):
You would just think it stood wellon its own, regardless of who the
fucking characters and who was playing themwas in it. This film is that
it's most fun and original when itleans into surrealism. I do agree with
that, with the exception of thenon spoiled thing that I said happens in
the end. I believe the wordI use was clouds. The clouds,
(21:33):
So you know, feel free toDM me and tell me what you thought
about that sequence. Glass chooses toswerve this hell hound vehicle off the Beaten
Highway, and as with French bodyhorror Hit Titan to Time, coherence is
thrown to the wind. This isessentially a superior B movie that gets too
(21:55):
pumped up on its own aesthetic steroids. Interesting. I never understand why someone
who writes for the Financial Times,or anyone why the Financial Times has a
movie review section because movie entertainments notif I shut up, shut up,
(22:15):
just stop it. Uh you knowwhat I will say? This is like
Thelma and Louise on steroids. Iwish I could say I was original in
saying that, but I think somebodyelse had said that, and I happen
to agree. The only thing it'smissing Brad Pitt, British filmmaker Rose Glass.
Let's rip with some pere roid ragecinema in this uproarious, horribly violent
(22:38):
and lethally smart, noir thrilled thrillercited in the Venn diagram overlap between bodybuilding,
murder, and sex. I don'tknow if I would say lethally smart,
I would definitely say noir. Iwould definitely say pulpy. But it's
not an overly smart movie. Iwould say, if anything, if we
(23:00):
were going to use the word smart, I would say the casts artistic decisions
were very smart in terms of yankingme in, pulling me in. But
I don't know. I guess ifI think about a smart nowir thriller I
think of I guess no country wouldbe one. Jackie Brown would be one.
(23:23):
Though I'm going to get hate forboth of those. I'm just shitting
on everything Twilight, what else wegot? Glass never gets lost in the
references and mostly dispenses with a legacyin favor of Jackie and lose increasingly gory
strong stomachs required. No, it'snot listen the this is why I like
doing this. Are there some graphicmoments in this film? Sure? In
(23:48):
fact, you know why I gaveit a four instead of a five.
Cg Oh, bummer CG. I'mnot going to tell you who meets their
end and how again, spoiler freezefree, spoiler free. But I didn't
need a fucking strong stomach require,if anything, with the exact other way
(24:11):
strong stomach required to stomach the CGviolence, because, like, come on,
especially since it's not like, yes, it's a violent movie, but
it's not like it's violent from fuckingopening bell to closing credits. So I
could understand if we had to likecut corners from a money standpoint, but
fuck you, fuck you, no, my stomach turned when we had the
(24:37):
use of CG violence. I wouldbe remiss if I did not mention two
other huge players in this film thatI think bring it, bring it to
screen full force, at least aidingin the full force that it hit you
with. The music by Clint Manziel, awesome mansel Manzel, Sorry Sarah,
(25:02):
but Clint fucking goddamn good soundtracks sogood, got that synthy eighties vibe but
very dark. I mean it's eightiessynth horrish almost. And also the cinematography
by Ben Fordsman, who looks good, Babe, looks good. In fact,
I was talking to my chicks sister, who is a colorist in New
(25:25):
York, and I was like yousee you Love Lies Bleeding. Yet first
fucking thing she said was no.But when I saw the trailer, holy
fuck, that looked beautiful. Andthat's a professional colorist. So don't take
my word for it. Just takesomebody who was waiting in the wings to
see it and was hooked solely onthe look of the film. All right,
let's get back to some of thesereviews. See if I can find
(25:47):
anything. Let's go. Let's goto a bad one who hates it.
See when we go to the badones, it's never by anybody good.
It's always by shit that I wouldnever read The Ringer who reads The Ringer
Real views are ee l views.I'm not shitting on you, James or
Adam. I'm just saying, whyis it always the It's never the La
Times or the Chicago Tribune that alwayshas something that always has something negative to
(26:10):
say about something that fans and criticsalike found that that were overly positive about.
Why is it always the fucking noanyway? Adam from The Ringer says,
the best thrillers leave us worn outbut satisfied. At the end of
Love Lies Bleeding, there's only exhaustionand the vague feeling of having been dragged
(26:30):
along on a fast ride to nowhere. In particular, you need to read
your own shit. Dragged along ona fast ride to nowhere. You think
that's negative? I think that's positive. The end of this, the end
end, not some of the strugglesin the third act. The end end.
(26:51):
As the credits begin to roll,so fucking good, say it reminded
me of a Cohen Brothers movie.And guess what a lot of the characters
in Cohen Brothers movies are going.I guess the places they're going nowhere.
You fucking don't. I didn't meanthat, Adam. I don't know you.
I'm sure you're probably a nice guy. I'm just saying, dragged along
(27:12):
on a fast ride to nowhere.Ah, I kind of like that.
I want to go on that fastride to nowhere with lou and Jackie,
who, by the way, KristinStewart, Steamy, Katie O'Brien Steamy in
this, their relationship in this,Steamy really fucking enjoyed it. I don't
think I said it. I thinkI got derailed, as I always do,
(27:33):
because I fucking could you imagine meon cocaine? I would this is
me sober. Could you imagine meon cocaine anyway? One thing I didn't
want to say about Christman Stewart.I wasn't a fan of Kristin Stewart just
because, like again, like shewas in movies that weren't for me.
Right I saw a Shutter original calledLizzie that she was in and I was
(27:55):
like, oh, fuck, Ithink I like Kristin Stewart. She's a
pretty fucking good actress. And sincethen, like I'm not, I don't
believe in guilty pleasures. Gang.You'll never hear me that I even give
credit. I'll tell you justin Bieberstory one time I thought Justin Bieber was
stupid. He's not for me,He's for little girls. I shouldn't listen
to his shit. And then whatwas that tune let Me Love You that
(28:18):
came on? And I went,who is this? And somebody's like Bieber
and I'm like, well, Iguess I'm a Bieber fan. Now I
don't need to front. What pointis it to fucking hold that shit?
Let shout it from the rooftops.We're in the most accepting time you could
possibly be in right now. Shoutit from the rooftops. But anyway,
Kristin Stewart, each film that goeson continues to impress me with her range.
(28:44):
There was a couple times in herewhere I was like, ah,
Kristen, why was that the decision? But again I'm an armchair director.
Fuck me. You know, she'sshe's already successful. What the fuck?
But the point is is that don'tfucking let a preconceived idea hinder you from
growth gang you know, you know, I was on the hate Twilight bandwagon
(29:04):
for a long time and then Ijust realized, oh, it's not for
me, and Kristen Stewart's fine.Same with Robert Pattinson. I was like,
eh, I don't give a shit. And then I think I saw
him in the Lighthouse or something,that Lighthouse Tenant, and I was just
like, is Robert Pattinson good?Yeah, he's fucking good. James from
real views, it's a shame thatfor all the good things Love Lies Bleeding
(29:26):
does. It's a shame for allthe good things Love Lies Bleeding does.
The ending is such a complete disasternow and I would love to pick Rose
Glasses brain on this. I gottathink some of that was by design.
There James. It's supposed to bea complete disaster. They are trying to
get away from you know, Lou'sfather, who is you know, running
(29:51):
guns and just a not a goodperson. You know, has a mass
that almost fucking spoiled that there,but not a good person. So I
don't mind if the intent was forit to be a complete disaster. Now
some of the optics as we rideoff into the sunset, Yeah, you
know, like I, like Isaid, the cloud thing, cloud thing.
(30:14):
I was just kind of like,ah, whatever, But I get
it in terms of it being alove story, you know what I'm saying,
It's just wouldn't have been if Iwas going to do something trippy like
that, that probably wouldn't have beenwhat I decided to do. But again
it's this is, you know,me being an arm t armchair credit Boston
Globe Odie Odie header descended from theBoston Globe. Is what does Odie say?
(30:37):
I generally love noir, gore,kick ass women in the nineteen eighties,
but love Lies Bleeding ladled out avisual stew I did not enjoy consuming.
Hmm. Interesting. Interesting. Ido think there is an element of
it's supposed to make you uncomfortable.There's some very raw shit in this,
(31:03):
and I know that a lot ofthe layman type of fan. The raw
shit that they're that they're going towalk away or at least talk about with
this is the sexuality in it,and I just I don't know, it's
sophomooric. It bores me that,you know, Oh, did you see
how steamy that sex scene was withChristian Stewart and Katie O'Brien. What you
(31:27):
never seen a fucking sex scene before? You know, Like I don't know,
I just it's eh, figure itout, gang, I think you
should check this out. And I'vebeen selling people pretty hard on this one,
(31:47):
mainly because I do think we needto usher in more weird films,
and to me, this one isn'toverallyware. But I use my friends,
my girlfriend whatever is an example,and I can tell that they haven't seen
anything like this to me before.Like even my chick was just like,
oh, that that was steamy.Kristen Stewart, Katie O'Brien, and I'm
(32:08):
over here going, I don't know, that was grimy. That was raw.
I feel like I need a showerafter it, in a good way,
you know, not I like watchingstuff that makes me uncomfortable. And
I mean to me, this filmdidn't make me uncomfortable, but I could
tell that there were moments that myfriends, my friends would be and my
chick was uncomfortable, and they justdon't see stuff like this often. So
(32:30):
what does that tell me? Ah, watch more movies and you will enjoy.
If you were to watch more moviesin life, a movie like this,
you wouldn't. If anything, youwould probably feel like I do.
Oh, it's a really good movie, tried and true tropes that work before
you know the y'all got to getout of this ideology that we need original
(32:53):
shit. I don't think you understandhow hard that is to do these days,
original shit with an ending the it'sgoing to be pleasing to you.
It's too hard, gang. Wehave we have done everything. You know.
What I'm saying now is just tryingto find the story. We've done
everything in terms of like old Greekshit, man versus man, man versus
(33:13):
nature, like we've we've done itall. So this obsession with everything needs
to be authentic and original, andthe ending's gotta blow your fucking mind.
Sixth Scents and night Shadow, Noit doesn't. No, it fucking doesn't.
Sometimes a movie can end where theguy gets the girl or the girl
gets the girl. It's fine.I get, no fire up. The
