1:09
Speaker 2: You guys. She has a print out like this is
1:11
Speaker 2: never happen before with highlights. Okay, okay.
1:15
Speaker 1: I saw this press release and I thought it was
1:18
Speaker 1: very interesting, and I did print it out and highlight
1:20
Speaker 1: relevant points. So the headline is Hallmark Channel's New Year,
1:25
Speaker 1: New Movies programming propels network to become number one most
1:30
Speaker 1: watched in twenty twenty two to date. So here's some
1:33
Speaker 1: interesting information. New Year New Movies, which was the January event.
1:38
Speaker 1: The stunt elevated the channel to be the number one
1:41
Speaker 1: most watched entertainment cable network in the year to date
1:45
Speaker 1: among households women eighteen plus number one most watched cable network.
1:50
Speaker 1: That shocks me in twenty twenty two. As a result,
1:53
Speaker 1: that Networks delivered the number one most watched entertainment cable
1:57
Speaker 1: program of the week. So not only were they the number
2:00
Speaker 1: one channel, they had the number one show every week
2:02
Speaker 1: for four weeks in a.
2:03
Speaker 3: Row among them.
2:04
Speaker 1: In eighteen plus, the average viewers numbers of New Year
2:10
Speaker 1: New Movies was two point six million total viewers, which, guys,
2:13
Speaker 1: is a lot. It's a lot we used to get, like,
2:16
Speaker 1: you know, fifteen million people would watch an episode of Friends.
2:19
Speaker 1: Two point six million is a lot. In twenty twenty two,
2:22
Speaker 1: the age of streaming. Okay, oh, and one final note,
2:26
Speaker 1: the original movie premieres increased by fourteen percent the viewers,
2:31
Speaker 1: fourteen percent among women and eleven percent among total viewers.
2:33
Speaker 1: So Hallmark is having a moment. And we are here
2:36
Speaker 1: for it.
2:37
Speaker 2: Did they say what their number one movie was? I'm
2:39
Speaker 2: guessing it was the Wedding Veil.
2:42
Speaker 1: Well, it doesn't say in this particular press release, but
2:44
Speaker 1: the Wedding Veil did better numbers, I know than any
2:48
Speaker 1: countdown on a Christmas movie stop it. So I think
2:53
Speaker 1: it actually was in the three millions. Don't quote me
2:56
Speaker 1: on that, but I remember seeing that information. The Wedding
2:59
Speaker 1: Veil did very well.
3:00
Speaker 2: Oh I'm not I guess I'm like not surprised, but
3:03
Speaker 2: I like how they're The press release says, you know,
3:07
Speaker 2: like it was like a it paid off for them.
3:09
Speaker 2: They do this every year, you know what I mean
3:11
Speaker 2: This It wasn't like a one time like new fangled
3:15
Speaker 2: idea for Homewark channel correct.
3:18
Speaker 1: We've talked before, like why do they bother to group
3:22
Speaker 1: these movies? But I do think it has I mean
3:24
Speaker 1: they called it a stunt. I do, yes, stunt some effect.
3:29
Speaker 1: You want to watch all the movies in the collection,
3:31
Speaker 1: even if there's no actual ties binding them together.
3:35
Speaker 2: I can understand that, and I can understand that I
3:38
Speaker 2: can get people like excited. I'm not excited about Loveuary.
3:41
Speaker 2: I think it's the stupidest like stunt theme that they
3:46
Speaker 2: have come up with thus far.
3:48
Speaker 1: I don't love the name. And the other issue I
3:51
Speaker 1: have with Loveuary is it's three movies in a trilogy,
3:55
Speaker 1: one of which they aired in January, which I find odd,
3:59
Speaker 1: and then it's a fourth standalone movie like.
4:02
Speaker 2: A random maybe sort of Well, I guess they're all
4:06
Speaker 2: kind of have a love theme, but I mean that's
4:09
Speaker 2: allmarking yet, right right.
4:11
Speaker 1: So I do feel a little bit badly for Welcome
4:14
Speaker 1: to Mama's because I think it just gets left out
4:17
Speaker 1: in the cold. It's not part of the wedding Veil hype.
4:21
Speaker 1: But today we are here to talk the wedding veil unveiled. First,
4:25
Speaker 1: we have been telling the listeners that we have some
4:27
Speaker 1: emails that we've been holding on to from the first
4:30
Speaker 1: Wedding Veil, and so since we're back to talk wedding
4:32
Speaker 1: veil too, I thought now it would be the time
4:34
Speaker 1: to share them. Okay, we have gotten more emails about
4:36
Speaker 1: this movie than any other movie ever, and I'm not
4:40
Speaker 1: going to read them all, but I just thought I
4:43
Speaker 1: would give a random sample of some thoughts on the
4:45
Speaker 1: wedding Veil. Justin says I thought the movie was Okay,
4:48
Speaker 1: the movie subject was great and refreshing. However, I personally
4:51
Speaker 1: think it could have been better with some other faces.
4:53
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, the actions were good, but I
4:56
Speaker 1: would have liked to see some other faces that would
4:57
Speaker 1: have brought a little more flavor to the movie.
5:00
Speaker 2: Hmm. Interesting, I have so many questions. Flavor Does she
5:06
Speaker 2: mean diversity?
5:07
Speaker 1: Well, that's certainly lacking so far this year.
5:11
Speaker 2: One percent. I actually really like the actresses that they
5:16
Speaker 2: say have I mean, I'm a Lacey stan one hundred percent.
5:19
Speaker 2: But so that's interesting. Okay, what's the next?
5:22
Speaker 1: Wenesday An says, I'm a fan of the three actresses,
5:24
Speaker 1: but I thought the movie was lame, weak story, and
5:26
Speaker 1: lead actor cannot act and has no presence. Now I
5:29
Speaker 1: should have followed up. Because she says lead actor, I'm
5:34
Speaker 1: going to assume she means Kevin McGary, although I think
5:37
Speaker 1: actor is a gender neutral term, so she could have
5:39
Speaker 1: meant Lacey Schubert. But she does say she's a fan
5:43
Speaker 1: of the three actresses. I liked Kevin McGary. The only
5:46
Speaker 1: thing I didn't like in that movie was accent about
5:50
Speaker 1: them apples. Yeah, I did not enjoy the accent.
5:53
Speaker 2: I liked him a lot, and I know he's in
5:55
Speaker 2: another movie that's coming up on the calendar, so I'm
5:59
Speaker 2: in March looking forward to seeing him again.
6:02
Speaker 1: This is from Thad. Do we pronounce tjds?
6:05
Speaker 2: That?
6:05
Speaker 3: Am I saying his name correctly?
6:07
Speaker 2: I don't know.
6:08
Speaker 1: I loved the movie. I tried to watch all more
6:11
Speaker 1: Christmas movies this past season, but kept falling asleep. Only
6:14
Speaker 1: five movies touched my heart. Oh I didn't get to
6:17
Speaker 1: watch Lacey's Christmas at Castle Heart or Dickens of a
6:20
Speaker 1: Holiday yet skip those.
6:23
Speaker 3: Indeed, Oh, that's not true.
6:24
Speaker 2: I hated it.
6:28
Speaker 1: I did love the comedic timing and writing of the
6:30
Speaker 1: resolution of the misunderstanding and the fiance references we talked about.
6:35
Speaker 3: I thought that was overdone. It was too much.
6:38
Speaker 1: How confused can you be? Just ask the question you
6:41
Speaker 1: I love all of the actors in the movie. I
6:43
Speaker 1: thought they contributed to successful storytelling. I thought Kevin McGary
6:49
Speaker 1: played the humorous side of his role a bit more
6:51
Speaker 1: than he should have due to some possible nerves of
6:54
Speaker 1: working opposite Lacey. Hmmm. He says, I have seen more
7:00
Speaker 1: sincere or should I use the word serious acting from
7:03
Speaker 1: him in other roles where he seemingly felt more comfortable.
7:06
Speaker 1: I think if he gets the opportunity to work with
7:07
Speaker 1: Lazy again, he will be even better than he already.
7:09
Speaker 2: What dude, he's probably hung up on using that Boston accent,
7:14
Speaker 2: you know, like, does it sound good? Does it sound authentic?
7:18
Speaker 2: You know?
7:19
Speaker 1: He says. Bottom line, those who love Kevin McGary as
7:22
Speaker 1: the actor Nathan grant On when calls the Heart, really
7:25
Speaker 1: need all this movie had to offer.
7:27
Speaker 3: For Kevin McGary fan.
7:29
Speaker 2: Oh, that's interesting. He's maybe our new up and comer
7:33
Speaker 2: for twenty twenty two.
7:34
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm excited to see him in March.
7:36
Speaker 2: I just noticed that on Hallmark Channel dot com they
7:40
Speaker 2: have a character quiz. So I want you to pull
7:44
Speaker 2: it up, and I think we should take it and
7:46
Speaker 2: then see who we are.
7:47
Speaker 1: Oh, it's that kind of character I think.
7:49
Speaker 2: So are you an Avery, Emma or Tracy?
7:53
Speaker 1: Okay, we are going to link this in our show notes.
7:58
Speaker 1: I have a guess in my mind. Hold on, I'm
7:59
Speaker 1: in a.
7:59
Speaker 2: Right Okay, Okay, okay, okay, this is who I think
8:03
Speaker 2: I am, and you're gonna write down who you think
8:05
Speaker 2: you are.
8:07
Speaker 1: Okay, start your engine.
8:10
Speaker 2: Do you have your picture up ready? One?
8:13
Speaker 1: Three? We are both Tracy.
8:22
Speaker 2: Guess for you, that's who I guess, same for ye.
8:26
Speaker 2: You know she's a little bit of a skeptic, a
8:28
Speaker 2: little bit of a pessimist.
8:31
Speaker 1: Well, she takes a practical approach to love. Wendy hasn't
8:35
Speaker 1: been known to call me a pessimist. I believe I
8:37
Speaker 1: am a realist, and that's what I would I would
8:40
Speaker 1: call Tracy. She's at she takes a realistic look at life.
8:45
Speaker 2: I was like, oh no, that last question, I said,
8:48
Speaker 2: would you rather meet a man who was a secret millionaire,
8:51
Speaker 2: a man who can cook? Or what was something?
8:54
Speaker 3: An Italian I said, A man who can cook?
8:56
Speaker 2: Said And I had to think about it for a second.
8:59
Speaker 2: I was like, a million I hate to cook, So yeah,
9:02
Speaker 2: a man who can cook one hundred person? Oh my god,
9:05
Speaker 2: that was so fun. We're gonna definitely link that in
9:08
Speaker 2: the show notes. I'm a Tracy. I'm excited for her installment.
9:11
Speaker 3: Indeed.
9:13
Speaker 2: Okay. Here is the synopsis for The Wedding Veil Unveiled.
9:20
Speaker 2: Emma travels to Italy to teach and research a wedding
9:23
Speaker 2: veil said to bring its owner love. While there, she
9:26
Speaker 2: meets Paulo Poolo. Poolo, the son of a local lace
9:31
Speaker 2: making family.
9:33
Speaker 3: That's it.
9:34
Speaker 1: That's it, short and sweet, that's.
9:37
Speaker 2: The text notes.
9:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, this movie was filmed on location in Venice, which Burano,
9:44
Speaker 1: and in Bulgaria.
9:46
Speaker 2: I'm shocked to read that because when I was watching
9:50
Speaker 2: it yesterday, I was like, when they were like on
9:53
Speaker 2: the water boats, I was like, is this green screen?
9:55
Speaker 2: This is a really good green screen. This is a
9:58
Speaker 2: green screen.
10:00
Speaker 1: I think I must have known ahead of time, because
10:01
Speaker 1: I believed the entire time that they were in Italy.
10:03
Speaker 1: I mean it was it felt very obvious, I.
10:05
Speaker 2: Know, but I'm shocked that homework would have like production
10:09
Speaker 2: dollars to be like, yeah, let's go to Italy and
10:11
Speaker 2: film this movie.
10:12
Speaker 1: They have filmed. Lacy has been in a movie in
10:15
Speaker 1: Italy before, something Venice, We've been in Greece, We've been
10:18
Speaker 1: in Ireland.
10:20
Speaker 2: I know. It's just just weird. Look, if they're going
10:22
Speaker 2: to do it, do it with these actresses, not like
10:25
Speaker 2: a no name.
10:26
Speaker 3: Like is it more expensive to film abroad?
10:29
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say yes, unless they hired all like local
10:33
Speaker 2: filming crews and all those people. I don't know, you know,
10:36
Speaker 2: I know nothing about the Maky movies.
10:38
Speaker 1: So no, when we know a lot of the supporting
10:40
Speaker 1: cast was Italian.
10:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, And honestly, as I watched, I was like, are
10:44
Speaker 2: they all doing terrible Italian accents? But they were all
10:48
Speaker 2: real ones. I'm guessing real terrible accents. Well, I just
10:52
Speaker 2: like it was just so funny, like prag you know,
10:55
Speaker 2: like stuff like that. Like I was like, is that real?
10:58
Speaker 1: Well? So, Powell Bernardini, who plays Paolo in the movie,
11:03
Speaker 1: is Italian and the majority of his resume is foreign
11:06
Speaker 1: language films. So I appreciated the truth.
11:10
Speaker 3: In art in using an Italian.
11:12
Speaker 1: Actor in this role, and I felt like it lent
11:16
Speaker 1: believability to his use of that language.
11:20
Speaker 2: So you're telling me you do not want Tyler Hines
11:23
Speaker 2: doing an Italian accent? Did she even imagine? Oh my gosh,
11:29
Speaker 2: I can't even imagine. Okay, here is a funny note
11:32
Speaker 2: that I had to add on. A reser has said
11:36
Speaker 2: he loves to correct my Italian. She's talking about is
11:39
Speaker 2: her co star Paolo? And to that, I say, no,
11:44
Speaker 2: nobody wants to be corrected. If you are in a
11:47
Speaker 2: foreign country and you are trying your darnedist to speak
11:52
Speaker 2: the language, do you want to be corrected?
11:55
Speaker 1: Now? It makes me feel very embarrassed to speak another language,
12:00
Speaker 1: and it.
12:01
Speaker 2: Makes me embarrassed to speak English. Have you heard this podcast?
12:05
Speaker 1: I feel very put on the spot, so I would
12:07
Speaker 1: be embarrassed were someone to correct me. I do not
12:11
Speaker 1: take constructive criticism of that type. Well, so it would
12:16
Speaker 1: make me not want.
12:16
Speaker 3: To even try. I would stop.
12:18
Speaker 2: Yeah. So I'm just wondering if she was just being
12:21
Speaker 2: very nice for her co star here who was correcting
12:23
Speaker 2: her the entire time.
12:26
Speaker 1: I thought she did a nice job. I mean, she
12:28
Speaker 1: speaks a little bit of Italian and does it with
12:30
Speaker 1: a little accent.
12:31
Speaker 2: And bats prague she's trying, which made me wonder, is
12:36
Speaker 2: prago thank you?
12:37
Speaker 3: Okay?
12:38
Speaker 1: It feels like the Italian version of a looha because
12:40
Speaker 1: it seems like they used it to mean a number
12:43
Speaker 1: of things.
12:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, I only know it as like spaghetti sauce, So
12:46
Speaker 2: I was like, why would they call spaghetti sauce prey goo?
12:50
Speaker 2: If it means thank you.
12:51
Speaker 3: It means you're welcome.
12:53
Speaker 2: Oh now that's funny, you're welcome. Here's my sauce. O.
13:00
Speaker 1: The many meanings of the word pray go in Italian,
13:05
Speaker 1: it means come in, it means after you, which I
13:07
Speaker 1: do know that there were times when he would it
13:09
Speaker 1: felt like, let's go. It means please, how can I
13:13
Speaker 1: help you? I beg your pardon.
13:14
Speaker 2: I think it's like what in English? You know what
13:18
Speaker 2: I mean?
13:18
Speaker 3: Okay?
13:19
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, definitely, okay, okay, So are you ready for
13:22
Speaker 2: first impressions? Yeah?
13:24
Speaker 1: My first impression is this felt like a very standard
13:27
Speaker 1: Hallmark love story, neither distractingly bad nor knock my socks
13:30
Speaker 1: off good.
13:31
Speaker 2: Okay, mine is less than that. I hate apple pie.
13:36
Speaker 2: What I don't like apple pie? I think it's the
13:39
Speaker 2: most boring pie ever.
13:41
Speaker 1: Hot apple pie, no ice cream on top, No, thank you.
13:46
Speaker 1: I don't like many pies, but I like a hot
13:48
Speaker 1: apple pie with a scoop.
13:49
Speaker 3: Of ice cream.
13:50
Speaker 2: Nope, nope.
13:51
Speaker 1: What kind of pie do you like?
13:53
Speaker 2: Lemon meringe, yes, ma'am. And cherry pie, yeah, because I
13:56
Speaker 2: like a tart berry cherry.
13:58
Speaker 1: There when we go apple picking, they sell an apple
14:02
Speaker 1: cherry pie that is to die for, just delicious.
14:06
Speaker 2: I just don't apple pie is so boring, and I
14:08
Speaker 2: hated that it was like a part of this like movie.
14:11
Speaker 2: She said, I'm a miherricane, I'll make you an apple pie.
14:14
Speaker 1: I was like, God, shut up, beautiful oh, can.
14:17
Speaker 2: I borrow your kitchen? I was like, what for, what's
14:21
Speaker 2: happening here?
14:21
Speaker 1: I knew exactly what she was doing, did you.
14:24
Speaker 2: I you're smart. You can just see it coming like
14:28
Speaker 2: a freight train. What's gonna happen in these movies? Okay?
14:31
Speaker 2: So can we talk about what we like to them? Is? Well,
14:34
Speaker 2: I gotta say location, location, Location, indeed very sweet and romantic.
14:38
Speaker 2: And I love that we were actually in these like
14:41
Speaker 2: small Italian towns and we were not in some small
14:44
Speaker 2: Canadian town pretending to be an Italian town. I mean
14:48
Speaker 2: no offense to Canada. I love Canada.
14:52
Speaker 1: It's gorgeous. They find the most beautiful spots. But yes,
14:54
Speaker 1: it was nice to film a movie about Italy and Italy.
14:57
Speaker 1: Speaking of beauty, I loved Emma's wardrobe.
15:02
Speaker 2: That's funny. Okay, so I agree, I have that written
15:05
Speaker 2: down to you. I really enjoyed her clothing. I thought
15:07
Speaker 2: she looked cooler in the first movie. In the first movie,
15:11
Speaker 2: she was wearing like these cool like pants and blouses
15:16
Speaker 2: with these like cool kind of like jackets. In this
15:19
Speaker 2: she was just all in like very romantic dresses. Right,
15:23
Speaker 2: still beautiful, but I thought she was gonna be cooler
15:26
Speaker 2: and edgier.
15:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, she definitely had like a classic romantic vibe.
15:31
Speaker 2: Mm hmmm.
15:32
Speaker 3: I loved her wardrobe. I thought she looked great.
15:34
Speaker 2: I appreciated that she wore the same jacket several times,
15:38
Speaker 2: and I was like, yeah, you would only bring one jacket.
15:40
Speaker 2: You wouldn't bring like a you know, clothing rack of jackets.
15:44
Speaker 3: So brava, you're on the plane.
15:47
Speaker 2: Yeah. I did hate her hats, though I enjoyed her hat. Okay, listen,
15:52
Speaker 2: I just I'm a hater because I want to wear
15:54
Speaker 2: hats and I look ridiculous in hats.
15:56
Speaker 1: So I made you mad that she looked cute and hat.
15:59
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then I thought like, how did she carry
16:03
Speaker 2: How does she pack that? How does she carry that
16:05
Speaker 2: without it getting crushed?
16:06
Speaker 1: I bet she carried it on?
16:08
Speaker 2: What a pain. I would never.
16:10
Speaker 1: They sell these little magnetic clips that you can like
16:14
Speaker 1: loop onto your carry on and then it like magnets
16:17
Speaker 1: closed over the lip of your hat so you can
16:20
Speaker 1: like haneah. Interesting, I've seen I do not travel with hats.
16:24
Speaker 1: I don't need such a thing, but I have seen.
16:26
Speaker 2: I need a foldable hat. Yeah, packable, yeah, otherwise it's
16:30
Speaker 2: being crushed.
16:31
Speaker 1: Shop them there.
16:32
Speaker 2: Wait whatever, fine shit, I mean, the look was cute.
16:37
Speaker 1: I loved Emma's wedding dress.
16:39
Speaker 2: And don't you dare say it? Go ahead?
16:43
Speaker 3: Well, of course it was lace.
16:44
Speaker 2: No, Okay, I thought you were talking about that flower crown,
16:47
Speaker 2: and I have some notes about that.
16:50
Speaker 3: The flower crown was unremarkable to me.
16:53
Speaker 2: Okay, her dress was very pretty.
16:56
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it made sense that the lace maker's bride
16:59
Speaker 1: wore lip.
17:00
Speaker 2: Sure. I just thought it was pretty because it was
17:02
Speaker 2: like form fitting, fitting for that outdoor wedding. Zerm m hmmm.
17:06
Speaker 2: But there are twelve people that were there. The last
17:11
Speaker 2: thing I liked about it, I was a little bit
17:12
Speaker 2: worried at the end. I was like, this movie is
17:14
Speaker 2: almost over. Are they going to get married? Or what
17:16
Speaker 2: is this going to trickle into part three? Like I
17:18
Speaker 2: didn't know what happened. So I liked that they skipped
17:21
Speaker 2: forward six months and then we got a wedding.
17:23
Speaker 1: But six months. Were you surprised by the length of
17:25
Speaker 1: dting aage.
17:26
Speaker 2: Yes, because I was engaged like many years, so we're well,
17:30
Speaker 2: we were together many years and then we were like
17:33
Speaker 2: engaged a full like eighteen months.
17:34
Speaker 1: I think I was only engaged six months, so I
17:39
Speaker 1: can understand that timeline. Also, they can't drag it out
17:41
Speaker 1: too long because poor Sammy Brady needs to get married.
17:44
Speaker 2: I know, I know.
17:45
Speaker 3: I was like, well six months, they dine there for
17:47
Speaker 3: a week.
17:47
Speaker 1: They don't even live in the same country at this point.
17:50
Speaker 1: I enjoyed Luca's storyline the student artist.
17:55
Speaker 2: Why though, why was it necessary?
17:59
Speaker 1: Well, because there's not a lot going on in this movie,
18:01
Speaker 1: and so we have multiple storylines. We've got the providence
18:06
Speaker 1: of the Veil, We've got a Poollo trying to expand
18:09
Speaker 1: the company. We've got Emma trying to make her class successful,
18:15
Speaker 1: and we've got her student who struggles, and we had
18:17
Speaker 1: to bring in the friends. Needed a way to help,
18:19
Speaker 1: and so we had in the first movie, the friends
18:21
Speaker 1: were called in to help with the art restore, and
18:24
Speaker 1: so we needed a way to bring in the friends
18:26
Speaker 1: to help in this movie.
18:27
Speaker 2: So they help that kid get his scholarship. Yes, Lacey's
18:32
Speaker 2: Oh I didn't even make scholarship, I am, I did
18:36
Speaker 2: not even get that.
18:39
Speaker 1: I thought it worked well. I thought in both movies.
18:42
Speaker 1: Now knowing this is a thing that we're carrying through
18:44
Speaker 1: the movies, I thought they did a nice job finding
18:47
Speaker 1: a reason to bring in the friends, and I thought
18:49
Speaker 1: it made sense, and I thought Lucas's story was well
18:51
Speaker 1: realized from start to finish. She meets him on the street,
18:54
Speaker 1: she discovers he's this artist. He's been accepted to this school.
19:00
Speaker 1: Cut to oh, no, I can't pay my tuition.
19:02
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna be able to graduate and not to
19:05
Speaker 3: the rescue.
19:06
Speaker 2: Would you have felt obligated to buy one of his
19:08
Speaker 2: art pieces if you were on the street and found it,
19:12
Speaker 2: for sure? Yeah? Me too.
19:14
Speaker 3: But they were beautiful? Were they?
19:16
Speaker 2: Remember? Okay? Yes? They were perfume bottles? I was like
19:26
Speaker 2: hand blown glass. Maybe, yeah, okay. I would have been like, yeah,
19:30
Speaker 2: now I gotta buy one of these and two for
19:32
Speaker 2: my friends too.
19:33
Speaker 1: What did you wish for?
19:34
Speaker 2: I only have one thing? This story got way too
19:37
Speaker 2: confusing for me. Oh, I was like great great grandparents,
19:42
Speaker 2: chambermaid's illegitimate children. Who is Claudia? I don't know. It
19:46
Speaker 2: was too much for my brain to handle.
19:49
Speaker 1: She's the illegitimate child of the artist and the woman
19:53
Speaker 1: in the painting who was raised by the woman in
19:56
Speaker 1: the painting's maid.
19:58
Speaker 2: It's stif yeah, and how is she related to this family?
20:03
Speaker 1: Because the woman in the painting is a member of
20:06
Speaker 1: this family.
20:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was too complicated for Wendy, who probably fell asleep.
20:14
Speaker 2: I had to watch it in two parts.
20:16
Speaker 3: Wat yet it while she was in the shower.
20:20
Speaker 1: Through the shower door on full blast. By the way,
20:24
Speaker 1: By the way, Wendy watches TV in the shower. My
20:29
Speaker 1: husband listens to music in the toower. I bought him
20:31
Speaker 1: a shower speaker a couple of years ago. It was
20:33
Speaker 1: one of his favorite gifts. I try and listen to
20:35
Speaker 1: a podcast in the shower. That's what it sounds like.
20:39
Speaker 1: I can't differentiate a single word. It doesn't matter how
20:43
Speaker 1: loud it is. It just sounds like noise to me.
20:45
Speaker 1: So I don't know how you do that.
20:47
Speaker 2: Well, I told you, I just prop it up. We're
20:50
Speaker 2: talking my phone, which is a three by five screen
20:53
Speaker 2: or whatever. I just prop it up on the glass
20:54
Speaker 2: and then I put the subtitles on, so I can't
20:57
Speaker 2: read it.
20:58
Speaker 1: Shampoo in your hair real?
20:59
Speaker 3: Yeah, I need to focus.
21:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, watch everything. I did not watch this movie
21:04
Speaker 2: in the shower, but yes, I do consume a lot
21:07
Speaker 2: of my media like that.
21:08
Speaker 1: I did watch it while delirious with COVID. Yes, I did,
21:12
Speaker 1: you are forgiven. Oh well, that's funny that you talk about.
21:17
Speaker 3: You put on the captions for everything.
21:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, watch now. I put on the captions serverything that
21:21
Speaker 1: I watched too. But the wish I have for this
21:24
Speaker 1: movie is that we would get subtitles when they were
21:27
Speaker 1: speaking in Italian.
21:28
Speaker 2: They did it one time.
21:29
Speaker 1: I had that in my notes. I saw one set
21:31
Speaker 1: of subtitles. Yes, but otherwise we were either supposed to
21:34
Speaker 1: infer what they were talking about based on context or
21:37
Speaker 1: not care. Yeah, I would like to know the little
21:40
Speaker 1: jokes they were making.
21:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, isn't that weird that I caught that too.
21:44
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, there's a subtitle.
21:46
Speaker 3: But time once.
21:47
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wonder if that was a mistake. They just
21:49
Speaker 1: ran out of the budget for it. I forgot to
21:55
Speaker 1: cut something. Cut that we're going to figure out what
21:57
Speaker 1: we're talking about.
21:58
Speaker 2: We were all location in Italy. He's not a four
22:00
Speaker 2: sub titles. Guys, did you see that? I have a few. Okay,
22:06
Speaker 2: are we to assume lace purses are enough to open
22:10
Speaker 2: like a New York location for this lace making family?
22:16
Speaker 2: Evidently I just don't get it. Don't get it. I
22:19
Speaker 2: don't own anything lace, so I don't know it doesn't
22:23
Speaker 2: didn't like it.
22:25
Speaker 1: They already knew that the purses were selling.
22:28
Speaker 2: Well, oh really, well, are they just applying lace to
22:33
Speaker 2: like a Satain handbag?
22:36
Speaker 1: I don't know.
22:37
Speaker 3: They never showed the purses. I don't believe.
22:38
Speaker 2: I think they did. Oh but I don't remember exactly.
22:41
Speaker 3: I sometimes play candy Crush while I watch these.
22:43
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you're bagging on me for taking a shower.
22:47
Speaker 3: While watching this.
22:48
Speaker 2: Maybe she's doing something completely different.
22:50
Speaker 1: I was just explaining the movie watching experience for you.
22:53
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness.
22:54
Speaker 1: Okay. You may recall that in the Wedding Veil Part one,
22:59
Speaker 1: Wendy had beef with the selfie they take in the beginning.
23:03
Speaker 1: It's on my notes, So in the Wedding Veil part too.
23:06
Speaker 1: Apparently this is a thing and another thing they carried
23:08
Speaker 1: through the movies.
23:09
Speaker 2: I like that.
23:09
Speaker 1: I like the little nods that tie the movies together.
23:11
Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. The friends are together. They take
23:13
Speaker 1: a selfie. Now, I don't remember what the picture looked
23:17
Speaker 1: like in the first movie. I remember your discussion of it,
23:19
Speaker 1: I remember them taking it, I don't remember the outcome. However,
23:22
Speaker 1: in this movie, I see them about to take their
23:25
Speaker 1: selfie and I'm like, I'm ready. I'm ready for it
23:27
Speaker 1: because I know I'm gonna want to see it. And
23:30
Speaker 1: they take the photo, and like they do in television
23:34
Speaker 1: or movies when they take a photo, they like snap
23:36
Speaker 1: to the still photo, and the still photo is photo
23:39
Speaker 1: of them taking the photo. Yes, it's not their photo.
23:42
Speaker 2: No, it's so dumb. Right. I thought the same thing.
23:45
Speaker 2: But in the first movie they actually show a selfie.
23:48
Speaker 2: But it's that terrible.
23:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I wonder if they learned that lesson. But
23:54
Speaker 1: I was like, just let the girl take a selfie.
23:56
Speaker 1: My gosh, it doesn't have to be perfect. It's two
23:58
Speaker 1: seconds of your movie. I know, let Autumn actually snap
24:01
Speaker 1: a photo.
24:02
Speaker 2: I need to talk about that flower crown that Autumn
24:04
Speaker 2: Racer is wearing during her wedding. I thought it was terrible.
24:08
Speaker 2: I just thought it was so ugly compared to like lace.
24:11
Speaker 2: You had this beautiful like jeweled something or other, like
24:16
Speaker 2: headband or something with it. Okay, the flower crowd was
24:21
Speaker 2: just a lot. It was huge. It was like, I
24:23
Speaker 2: didn't like the colors of it. I hated it so funny.
24:28
Speaker 2: It was, as I said, it was unremarkable.
24:31
Speaker 1: I noticed it. I thought, huh, I think the rest
24:35
Speaker 1: of her dress is so simple. I mean, the lace
24:38
Speaker 1: is intricate, but it's very form fitting. It's not she
24:41
Speaker 1: doesn't have this big, poofy princess. She has short, simple hairstyle.
24:45
Speaker 3: So that was kind of her like wow moment.
24:47
Speaker 2: But I hated it. Okay, automn Racer's hair. Look. I
24:51
Speaker 2: don't like to talk at a lot about people's hair
24:54
Speaker 2: because it gets me in trouble. On this podcast, Aaron
24:59
Speaker 2: Cracow Tyler hines, but she had the same hair do
25:03
Speaker 2: every single scene, including her wedding day.
25:06
Speaker 1: Yeah. I thought her hair was super cute. That's just
25:09
Speaker 1: her style. I have the same hair do every day.
25:12
Speaker 2: Not on your wedding day. How'd you wear your hair
25:14
Speaker 2: on your wedding day?
25:14
Speaker 1: Down?
25:15
Speaker 2: Did you really? You didn't have anything?
25:17
Speaker 1: I had that but a little tiny, like slight half
25:20
Speaker 1: up like a full half of it.
25:21
Speaker 2: Okay, see, yes, I know.
25:24
Speaker 1: But it was down and curled like I do every day.
25:26
Speaker 1: Because I wanted to look like myself on my wedding day.
25:29
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, I didn't want an updo.
25:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, my hair is my thing.
25:32
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be like, yeah, i'll tie it back.
25:34
Speaker 1: I'm not like litlet my hot bod. That's not me
25:37
Speaker 1: on my wedding day. I got one thing.
25:41
Speaker 2: Oh my god, stop it, you're so funny. Well, I
25:44
Speaker 2: don't think her hair is her one thing. She has
25:46
Speaker 2: a beautiful smile, she has a beautiful face, like beautiful body,
25:50
Speaker 2: Like I just.
25:50
Speaker 1: Has short hair. What else is she gonna do with it?
25:53
Speaker 2: As a girl with short hair? I don't know. Put
25:55
Speaker 2: some extensions in it.
25:57
Speaker 3: I don't know.
25:58
Speaker 1: Her wedding day she to have tear extension.
26:00
Speaker 2: I don't have some pretty extensions. Put half half. I
26:04
Speaker 2: don't know. I don't know.
26:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, like a little tiny bit like twisted.
26:07
Speaker 2: Bath something something like got a they needed a bed
26:13
Speaker 2: for that flower crown. Dude, it was awful. God, Okay,
26:16
Speaker 2: one last thing? Where was Avery's husband? Peter did not
26:19
Speaker 2: make the trip to Italy?
26:20
Speaker 1: Did not make the trip. He was off talk in
26:22
Speaker 1: sports with Did they say with Finn?
26:24
Speaker 2: I don't know who's finn?
26:25
Speaker 1: Finn is Ali Sweeney's dude that she's going to break
26:28
Speaker 1: up with In the next.
26:29
Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't, No, I didn't. I don't know. I
26:31
Speaker 2: didn't catch that's funny.
26:33
Speaker 1: Off talking something with somebody, and as I'm saying that
26:36
Speaker 1: right now, I'm wondering if it was Finn, because it's
26:39
Speaker 1: weird that Finn's never been, like, wouldn't he have been
26:41
Speaker 1: at these weddings her boyfriend of course? And I'm guessing
26:45
Speaker 1: that's not Finn. In the commercials for this next movie,
26:48
Speaker 1: she's definitely not getting married to Finn. They've been so
26:50
Speaker 1: heavy handed with the oh we're not there yet. Oh
26:53
Speaker 1: it's been like two and a half years. But she
26:54
Speaker 1: meets like some beefy dude.
26:56
Speaker 2: Then in the in the new.
26:57
Speaker 1: Movie Wait Bye, Finn, she clearly doesn't love him, and
27:02
Speaker 1: at the end of this movie, Tracy says, Oh, well,
27:05
Speaker 1: Finn and I are talking about getting engaged. I mean
27:07
Speaker 1: it's about breaking time.
27:08
Speaker 2: Oh my god, gump him. Yeah, anything else for you?
27:13
Speaker 3: Just a rating?
27:14
Speaker 2: Let me hear it, two point five stars. We need
27:19
Speaker 2: to talk about that, because I didn't really like this
27:22
Speaker 2: movie and I gave it a three star, okay, but like,
27:26
Speaker 2: I just didn't find it that super entertaining, right compared
27:29
Speaker 2: to the first one. I gave the first one four stars,
27:33
Speaker 2: so I was like, I couldn't knock it down to
27:35
Speaker 2: like a d A two.
27:37
Speaker 1: The Wedding Veil I gave three point seven five stars.
27:43
Speaker 2: This story just wasn't that interesting to me. I was not.
27:46
Speaker 2: It could have been on movies and mysteries because I
27:48
Speaker 2: was like, uh, who made this and who made that?
27:50
Speaker 2: And we're gonna find this and I'm not, no, not
27:53
Speaker 2: into it.
27:53
Speaker 1: I found it pleasant, but not overwhelmingly.
27:57
Speaker 2: So okay, Well, I'm hoping Sam he brings it home
28:00
Speaker 2: for me.
28:01
Speaker 1: And we will be back next week with the Wedding
28:03
Speaker 1: Veil Legacy, the final installment in our Wedding Veil event,
28:08
Speaker 1: so be sure to come back for that while you're here.
28:10
Speaker 1: We love your five star ratings and reviews, so please
28:13
Speaker 1: leave us one on your way out the door. Thank
28:15
Speaker 1: you so much. Have a great weekend, friends. Goodbye bye
