  Speaker 2: Let's listen then, Hi, what's up? My name is Derrick
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Max and I was the director and writer of The Something.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Hi.
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: Hi, I'm Lenny Stevens and I played The Something on set.
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: I am a you know, a physical actor and a
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: contortionist and I did The Something. So it's so wonderful
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: to see everyone again and just a blessing to be
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: out out and about.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, my name is Golffield Thibodeaux. I did a special effects,
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: makeup and practical effects on set, but to something in
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: twenty sixteen.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: So my name is father O'Malley. I was the exorcism
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: consultant for this film. Hello, it is me.
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: I am Robert Goz and I did a lot of
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: the vo for some of our external creatures. I was
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: on set a little bit, but mostly in the video
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: booth making weird noises good.
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: They couldn't keep Robert offset. It's for those of you
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: that don't watch or know much about the industry. It
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: is not standard for the the via to be on set,
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: but I know they did it for the film The
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: Screen Films, and I believe Robert had heard that story
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: and was around around. Yeah.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: I didn't. We didn't even send him locations sometimes. I
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: was actually very confused how Robert kept on showing up.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: No I had I had a PA. I gave her
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: twelve bucks every week to send me the call sheet
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: and I'd show up. Because this was pre COVID, so
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: anyone could go on set. So it was a blast.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: It's really wild. It's exciting to see Robert Lendy to
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Getta as well, because it's you know, it's it's like
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: Tweedlede and tweetl dumb. We got to the voice and
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: we got to the creature together, and it's really funny to.
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: Watch out together. Yeah, the voice of the body, and
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: it's kind of two halves make a hole when we
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: come together. I of course wanted to get into voice
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: acting and would love for my characters to be fully
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: my body in my voice. But I clam up in
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: the booth. What can I say? I clam up in
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: the booth.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: And I got to say it was a little sad
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: for me because when you came in. I got to say,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: when Lenny, when I first watched your audition, your physicality,
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: your ability to contort your body is frightening, is frightening.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: I thought like, this is our guy. This is our guy,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: you know. And then the moment you started speaking, when
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: we put you in that booth, it was like, this
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: is not our guy. We need to bring in somebody big.
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: And I appreciated that honesty. You told me in the
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: room that it wasn't going to be me. He said,
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: You're not our guy for this, and I said, well,
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: thank you. I've always appreciated a direct director because it's
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: in the name of the.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Director exactly exactly, and I take that to heart. You know,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: when I direct something, I've got to be direct. And
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: you know, that's why we actually don't have two of
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: our leads in the room right now, because I was
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: directed about it, and after we shot, they both hate me,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: you know, Patricia and Sam, they're not We don't speak anymore.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: I'm so happy that they did the movie. I'm so
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: happy that they're finding success, but they will not be
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: in a panel with me, you know, And that's what
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: kind of happens.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Of course, referring to a Patricia Heaton and Sam Elliott
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: two season wonderful actors, really wonderful to work.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: With, and I wish them all the best. I wish
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: them all the best.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: But also we can't ignore the fact that we have
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: motherfucking father O'Malley at this roundtable.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: Father.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Oh gosh, bless you, bless you, bless you, bless you
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: one and all. I mean, I am so I was
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: just so stoked to be a part of this because
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: you guys gave me, I would say, uh, the biggest
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: role creatively in any film I've ever consulted on you
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: guys set up a little confessional booth next to Crafty
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: for any time that I wasn't directly needed. And uh,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: you know, I just really appreciated that you guys are
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: such a great cast degree you really gave me something
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: to do.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: I want to I want to talk to you about
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: that as well. You're next to Crafty because we couldn't
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: get you away from Crafty. Let's talk about how you
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: loved Crafty every second of the day you were over
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: at Crafty Life.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: When they send a group chat to I'm a I'm
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: in a big group met with a bunch of other
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: fathers who do are the same thing. Yeah, I'm in
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: a big Catholic church group chat where we consult on,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: where we consult on films and books and stuff.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: And dark days you see on that group chat as.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Well, there are some dark days. You know, people are
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: people are tortured, even us, even you know, the Brothers,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: the Stuns, the fathers of God were tortured. But anytime
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: a little opportunity pops up and we try and you know,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: be on the same side. It's sort of like an
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: assistance page of Los Angeles sort of year. I'm told
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: where you send any opportunities that come your way. Some
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: pay more than others. But I am always the first
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: to respond for any film gig because I know there's
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: gonna be a bag of cheese. It's for free waiting
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: for me. Oh my god, I love crafty father, You're
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: a legend. And uh director Derek.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Dearret Derreck, thank you with a t.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's Darren.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: Now you have to specify it when you say Derret
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: with the T. People don't know if it's the T
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: instead of the K, or the T instead of the
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: D yes, so sometimes we would be calling you Terrek,
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: sometimes trot. It's it's tough if I would have to
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: always check the call sheet, which for those of you
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: who don't work in film, you get a sheet with
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: everybody's name on it before you show upset their phone number,
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: what their job is. And it took me a while
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: to learn this. You could just check that if you
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: don't know how to say someone's name or spell it.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Which was frustrating though, I will say, because people they
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: heard me saying it and then they would read the
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: call sheet and start saying Tarat or Darrott, you know,
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: and I'm clearly saying Derret. You know, it's a family name, Derret.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: There was a misspelling when my parents moved to California
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: in eighteen o four.
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: Because usually the mistake happens at like Ellis Island with
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: someone coming from across Europe or something. These were Americans.
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: Derek is a pretty understandable American name, And this is a.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Mistake on your first name, not your last name.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Which is first name, a first family name. You great
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: great grandfather, We changed the last name in my family
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: every generatody chooses there corrected. Yeah, yeah, but I kept
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Derrett and I changed my original last name for Thaiken
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: to Max Nice. Yeah.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: So you know, I bet you could do that with
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: your first name as well. I bet you could go
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: to a courthouse and get that all sorted.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: I'm not disrespecting fourteen lines of men with.
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: That, right. That's that's generations of that's generation, which is
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: kind of what the film is about in a certain way.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so let's just jump into it, you know, let's
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: just jump into what the film is about. The Something
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: follows the story of a man and a wife who
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: have a child and the child gets infected by something
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: and kind of becomes this monster, and every time the
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: child kills something else becomes the something, you know, And
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: so we had Lenny playing a lot of different roles here.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: We first cast Lenny as the child, and yes, I
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: didn't know if that was gonna work because you are
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: seven to two.
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: Right, and it it didn't work. I think the reviews
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: kind of came through and it did not work. On set,
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: we thought we were making something special and it just
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: you know, Fangoria called it a joke, and you know,
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: but I thought it was a big choice. And I
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: you know, I took a lot of inspiration from the
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: film Split and the he played all those characters, and
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: so I.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: Can I say personally, I think we all owe a
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: lot to the film Split.
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: The twist ending. Absolutely we do.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, absolutely great, fantastic film. I actually wrote this based
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: on that basically.
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: Right, Yes, And it was a quick turnaround and you
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: were just really inspired by him.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: Two or three weeks I just jumped on it. I
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: saw it and I said this would be great, but
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: if it was a little girl, so I jumped on it.
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: So but yeah, I played the son of Patricia Heaton
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: and Sam Elliott, the little child.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: And.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: As far as reviews go. I mean that people loved
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: their chemistry. I'm surprised we haven't seen them in something
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: since this film.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Me too, I think the same. Yeah, yeah, I mean
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: that's Sam Elliott. He is a rising star and I
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: hope someday Hollywood takes notice.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: Got a lot of life in him. Got a lot
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: of life in him.
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: I'll point out. And this happened a lot on set.
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: Sam Elliott's been working for a very long time as
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: a seasoned actor.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: I think he's definitely got a future too.
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: Well, all right, Father O'Malley and I we really you know,
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: it was an interesting relationship because we are at odds religiously.
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: But I just couldn't get enough stories about Father O'Malley's
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: experiences on the set of American Pie Christ Camp, which
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: I have is one of my favorite straight to DVD comedies,
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: and I just the set stories are such a blast.
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: I don't I don't want to throw you on the
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: spot right now, but maybe if you want to.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Oh, we were delayed for weeks, Father telling no one more,
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: just one more, got to tell us a couple of stories.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Let's just say a lot of pies were thrown, a
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: lot of sex was had, and a lot of things
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: I as a priest, turned my eyes away from. You know,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I can't say too much because it would be an
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: affront to God. But the thing, you know, all I
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: could say is that people have urges, people have sinful urges,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: and that was something we got into a lot. Lady,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I would say, because you are a proud member of
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: the Church of Satan, and that was something we sort
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: of had to reckon with.
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: Yes, And you know, the Church of Satan kind of
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: started existing as a response legally to some of the
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: things that are done religiously in our country. But I
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: joined as a worshiper of dark Lord himself, Satan, the
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: fallen Angel, and so you know, I have strong beliefs
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: about that.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: Sure.
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: Of course, of course, our set was great in terms
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: of you two. I feel like you with that open
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: and honest conversation, it really opened us all up to
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: just being our honest and most authentic selves when we
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: show up to that set.
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: That's a fantastic point. I have not felt as comfortable
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: as I did on Derek's set, and I really appreciate.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: Thank you, guys, thank you. You know, like when I
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: first wrote this and when they finally let me direct it.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: I thought, the one thing I want to do, one
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: thing I want to make sure happens on set, is
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: that since it's a scary movie, people are not scared
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: on set, people feel welcomed, you know, since we're making
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: a very unwelcoming movie. I would say, because that's the
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: point of the movie. I don't want audiences to like it.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: I want audiences to be scared. I want audiences to
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: be quivering, and I want audience just to think walking away,
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, something in me, you know.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: To clearly, Yeah, Darren, I did want to say that
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: made my job really hard because I made the creatures.
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: So it was difficult sometimes because you would say why
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: would you do this? Why would you do this to Lenny?
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: And I said, because you told me too. You know,
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: he looks like a big alligator because you told me to.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: But he just looked so uncomfortable sometimes, you.
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: Know, well, he wasn't uncomfortable. He's supposed to look uncomfortable
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: because he is a representation of grief and pain, and
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: you know, he makes you look uncomfortable. And there were
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: times when you would scream at me and say, how
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: dare you do this? To my friend Lenny, and I
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: would say, you asked me to do that, So.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: I just didn't get it. I just didn't get it
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: why you would do that to my friend Lenny.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I had sent you drawings. I had sent you
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: pictures I had.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: Sent and I liked the drawings. I just didn't understand
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: what the drawings meant. I thought they were just gonna
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: be drawings, to be clear.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: I just think sometimes you didn't understand that what we
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: were making was a scary movie. And by the time
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: we got to it, you know, that was hard for
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: me because people seemed to not talk to me, not
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: like me.
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: Robert was talking to me, which was fine, but everyone
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: else was constantly, constantly, you know, telling me, how dare
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: you do this to our set? And it was challenging
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: for me.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: People were in and out of the confessional booth, you know,
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: talking about Garfield. I will say a lot of people. Yeah,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: I hope it's okay for me to bring up now
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: people would pop into the confession book.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: I do think that's the a legal part of a
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: confession booth. I don't think you're supposed to say it.
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: Also, it sounds like people are using a confession booth
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: kind of like a reality show confession can I was.
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: In the confessional wet and father MELI, No, look, I
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: wasn't here to make friends.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: Yes, well, I did put a camera in there. I
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: put a camera in there so that they could, you know,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: air your feelings, and then I could rewatch the tape
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: so that next time they come back, I know how
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: to properly bless us for their sins.
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: I would go into that booth because I felt unneeded
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: on set, and that gets to you, right, And I
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: sure I didn't have a job on there, but I'd
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: get in there and I'd say in that booth, I'm.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Here for the right reasons. And you know, Robert, I
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: think you were.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: Robert, you were here for the right reasons. You weren't
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: there to mess around, you were there for the art.
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: And you know, some people I'm not gonna name names,
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: but for example, when Garfield, I guess I'm naming names
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: right now, Garfield, just yet, Garfield and Deanna in the
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: confessional booth cooked up, knowing I would see that footage
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: later on, and Garfield.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Knowing that, you know, right, because we did air it.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: We did air it in a big cast party now.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: Deanna is my wife. Deanna is my wife of twenty
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: five years. She came by set and I was stressed.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna be honest, I thought that star wagon was empty.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: It turns out it was Lenny's. And I didn't mean
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: to I didn't mean to do that. And I told
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: this to father. I told this to father. My life
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: is my life and people need to stay out of it. Okay,
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to get I'm trying to win immunity here.
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: But the moment Garfield's wife, Deanna walked on to set,
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: I said to Garfield, I'm gonna make her my wife
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: one day. I have a huge crush on her, and
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: and you rudely continued to be married to her after
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: I said that cousin has a lot of drama.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: My responsibility, Lenny is that is shows more about you
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: than me.
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: But that was the day, I hate to say this,
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: that was the day we filmed the best scene in
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: the movie.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Mm hmm. The tension really added. What I didn't realize
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: is sometimes having an uncomfortable set gets an uncomfortable movie.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: You know, yes, and let's talk about that scene. Actually,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: I love this thing. You know, we got panned critically,
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: we got ripped apart left and right. Lenny, I don't
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: think you have a career after this movie.
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: But well not in film.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: No.
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: But yes I am working, but just not in the
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: film war.
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: What are you doing now?
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: Well, you know, because of my ability to contort my body,
• 15:59
  Speaker 5: I am a rope for Cirque de sole.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: So they you are, you don't actually perform, you just
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: they'll use you to climb.
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they'll use me to climb, they'll swing me, they'll
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: tie me around. Sometimes they don't even use me in
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: the show. But if they need something far away, they'll
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: tie me up in a little knot and throw the
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: rope like a lasso to pull it close to them.
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: It's kind of an all purpose job.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: And how tall are you, Lenny, because that might be
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: a bit of a short rope.
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: So once you've looped me, I mean that's a four
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: foot rope at the most.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: Yes, So my question is are you are you? Are
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: you like a build as a performer or oh?
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: No, very specifically in the in the.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Program, is it props or is it.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: It's currently unpaid labor.
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: No, it's unpaid labor. I'm trying to get in with
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: the Cerca Sole crew. You know in the business you
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: do stuff early on that that's not really your art,
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: but you know it's how you you build up. I'm
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: sure in the vo world and the directing world.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: How long have you been in the business for.
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: Of Circle of Film both forty odd years?
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Yes, Yes, I've seen your work. I saw your work in.
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: Oh.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: I saw your work in Childbride forty nine.
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: Yes, in Childbride forty nine I was That's actually where
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: father Amaliy and I first met because I was the
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: priest Childbride forty nine, so Father Amelie was there showing
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: that there was a proper child marriage in the film
• 17:29
  Speaker 5: Childbride forty nine, which the other child Brides had kind
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: of disrespected the religion. I would say.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: I want to say Childbride forty nine really handled Catholic
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: rules on child marriage very, very gracefully, because a lot
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: of people get it wrong. A lot of people, you know,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: they put too much fanfare around it, they try and
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: justify it too much. But Childbride forty nine really got
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: it simple. It's a simple, lovely marriage between an older
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: man and a small woman, and that's what we call
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: children in the Atholic Church. Small women.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: Y'all might not notice because this is one of my
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: first jobs, but I actually I never mit, ch'all. I
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: wasn't on set, but I crafted the fat suit for you, Lenny,
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: the big, big fat suit.
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: Yes, it was a very fat priest and that was
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: It was a very collaborative set, and I said, I'd
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: like this priest to be you know, if you don't
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: mind a quick digression for the story. So they you know,
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: they brought me the original fat suit and I said,
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: we're gonna need to go a little bigger. And then
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: they brought it in again. We had a little meeting
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: and I said, we still have to go bigger. And
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: I eventually showed them the Monty Python film Life of Brian,
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: I believe, or maybe a meeting of Life where the
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: big man throws up a lot, and I said, you
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: see this, let's double that down. This This priest is
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: going to be twice the size we did.
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: Twelve hundred pounds.
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: Yes, And I thank you Garfield because a lot of
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: people in the industry would not be as collaborative. But
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: I just I read the script and I said, this
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: guy is morbidly obese, and it's the only way I'll
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: play him, So give me the suit.
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: And I took to the Bible, you know, and I
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: looked up if there were any verses on you know,
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: priest's weight and what they should be, and I interpreted
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: as well that it should be twelve hundred pounds. Yes,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: And so I'm glad.
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: That you found. I'll say this about you, father Amali.
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: You can find a justification for anything in the Bible.
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: You're very good at it. You're very good at it.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: I dare you to find something in the Bible that
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: I can't justify.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: Tell us how you used to justify it.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: If you ask me what kind of hot dog is
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: the most biblically appropriate hot dog, I'd be able to
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: tell you. Open up your book to Psalm sixteen forty five,
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: and you'll see that Jesus is holding a rope, rope
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: big enough to envelop two calves, as it says in
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: the Good Book. And that, to me, two calves is
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: kind of two carnies. And that's a hot dog. And
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: that's what we're talking about here. We're talking about honoring
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: the Good Book. So I appreciate everybody on this film
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: is so good about that.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: And I hate to get heated right here. But in
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: my religion, we just don't believe that Jesus had hot dogs.
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: I don't believe that they were around at the time.
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: And here we go again. They had to send to
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: right the hot dog truck one day because it was
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: making us. We couldn't see it without you know, like
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: magnets starting the argument once again.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, this actually really like segues nice into my favorite,
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: one of my favorite clips of the movie. We were
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: talking about how that day was tense. You know. We
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: had father O'Malley and Lenny at each other's throats. We
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: had Garfield being ripped apart. Diana was there, there was
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: a lot of sexual energy, and in the meantime, Robert
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: is just mouthing his lines into my ears, going is
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: this does this sound good? Is this the right thing?
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: And I just say, everybody shut up and roll now.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: I want to play this clip because it really really
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: captures the scary spookiness of the movie. This is when
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: Patricia and Sam realize that their daughter has something.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Let's roll, there's something right with that, Cude, give it
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: a rest our.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: Daughter is fine, damn it, damn it.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: I've gotta go into the kitchen. I'm gonna pour myself
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: a drink.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: Honey, make it too.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: I think you're right, And that's the scene. That's the scene.
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: Wow crazy we cut.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: It off on Oh no, I wanted to cut it
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: off early because it just goes a little downhill. But
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: for me, that scene really captured. You admit that, Yeah, the.
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: Movie goes downhill from there. That's the best part of
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: the whole movie.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: You're so honest.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: Direct, I'm direct, but I really I feel like that
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: scene like captured because you had Patricia and Sam acting
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: their asses off. You know, I didn't give them lines
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: and they were making them up, and I hope you
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: could feel that, you know, the feeling. And then you
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: had you know, Lenny playing the character and if you
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: guys could notice, I wasn't very good with the edit,
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: and you could hear both Lenny and Robert's voices come
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: through for the voicing over, which I thought a choice. Yeah,
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: it added an effect of we don't know who this
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: something is. And also those.
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: For those of you that don't watch film, about sixty
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: maybe seventy percent of the audio you hear is recorded afterwards.
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: It's a fully voiceover adr. But what what they usually
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: do is they adr is I believe alternate dialogue replacement
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: here have a lot of replacement.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: No.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: Well, I will say the one thing we did replace
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: is we made every single like kind of noise you hear,
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: like wine being poured or anything. I got Robert to
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: fill in all of those two. You know, it was very.
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: Prairie Home companion.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: Yes, it's huge influence for me, huge part.
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: You were kind of forgive my language, but pimping the
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: film into having more people would for no reason, say
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: do I hear a horse carriage moving by?
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: I thought that would be scary. I thought it would
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: really terrorize the audience of going what is real? What
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: is fake? Why do these horses sound like a man
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: making horse noises? And Robert, could you do that horse noise?
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: Because you hit it so well in the film, you.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: Gotta do it.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: That was the horse.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: And I'll say, I want to say that.
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: I get asked this a lot, and I think my
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: main philosophy is show up to work, even if you
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: don't need to go to work, show up because you
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: can add to the film and they didn't even need you,
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: and you can add to it.
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like I tell you, I
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: gotta say, Robert, you're.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: In.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: Your sound effects for the entire city of Boston were
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: so impressive. The way that you provided background, featured extra,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: anybody that we didn't really want or that Derek didn't
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: really want to be paid. You were doing all those voices.
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: You did full of full sports commentary for a fake
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: Boston Red Sox game, like we were standing outside of
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: Finway Park.
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: It was all and I enjoyed every fucking minute of it.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: Well, what I'll do is I'll go to a film
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: im in when it comes out. I'll put on a
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: little hoodie and sit in the back of theater just
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: to hear people reacting.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: That's classy.
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: And a lot of people in the audience, you know
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: that what was happening was people would be like, is
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: somebody's radio on? Did somebody leave their phone on? You
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: were that good, Robert Is People thought it was happening
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: in the room, and you know, I don't want to
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: reveal myself to be in the movie, but I would
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: sometimes stayed up and say, no, no, no, that's all
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: happening in the film.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: And that's part of it.
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: Does it say no, no, it does not pay off.
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: It's just atmosphere.
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: Thank you for sharing that, Lenny. That means a lot
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: to me because I learned in acting school.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: That it is your job to be this right.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: Did you go to again?
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: I went to NYU Tish Oh wow.
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: Wow, very prestigious school and that was the that's the
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: Adrian Brody School that they added there.
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: Right, Yes, I was at the Adrian Brody School, one
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: of the first graduating classes of it.
• 25:18

• 25:30
  Speaker 5: Sean Paul on Saturday Night Live. And you understand how

  Speaker 5: that usually takes five seconds and made it totally about me. Now,
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: I'd like to bring up a couple of students to

• 27:27
  Speaker 1: to be here. I'm gonna pull a question for the
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: fish Bowl because I'm really curious, y'all are the creative
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: types on here? What was the most fulfilling moment on
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: set for this film?
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: Hmmm, Well, I.
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: Want to talk about one of the creatures that I
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: got to create with Lenny, and I want to mention Lenny.
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: Your body. In the special effects makeup department across the country,
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: your body is kind of known as the great canvas.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: We all, it's the great canvas, you know, and we
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: we really love kind of your limbs are just so
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: fluid we can just kind of put anything on them.
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: And your skin is so uh, there's no moisture to
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: it at all, so all sorts of latex attached to it.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: And your face also just has so many sharp features
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: on it, so there's a lot to build on. Your
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: head is pointed so weird, there's a lot to go
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: off of. So we love it. We love it. These
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: are compliments.
• 28:28
  Speaker 5: Obviously they sounded close to compliments in the but some
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: people can interpret it as maybe they think he looks
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: weird and then you said, I do look weird my head,
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: and you know, but yeah, I can describe so many times.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought you would try to get more of
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: like a usual shape for a canvas.
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: You know, it's angles. You know, you like to start.
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: If you start weird, you can get weirder. If you
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: start normal, you just can get weird, you know what
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: I mean. And so in the feet, Lenny's feet, I
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: mean they are wide, but they're short, so it's really
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: fun like.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: A platypus tale. I remember that one.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Biblically, Lenny's feet, I would say, are wrong?
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: Do you have as in the Bible? Yes?
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: So in the Book of Job it says that the
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: Lord shall have bestow upon man a foot that is
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: narrow with five toes, that does not offend the woman
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: who look on it. And uh, I think that's pretty clear.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: That makes it extremely clear. You really didn't have to
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: do much work for that one.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: You found that one so fast. I haven't bookmarked. I've
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: been in this a long time, you really have. But anyway,
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: the most fulfeelings.
• 29:43
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, the book has a little too much about feet,
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: somebody said.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Finally somebody said it. You know, I I got it.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: You know, I got a side with the Lord on
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: this one. I think it has the perfect amount of feet.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: I think it really does. I think you need to
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: know that, because otherwise the Book of Psalms with a
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: book of hands, it doesn't make any sense.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: The Book of Job is like a Quentin Tarantino movie.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: For me, it's just out of no all of a sudden.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: It's thirty seconds of feet, you know, and it's.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: A lot of artillery and sort of weaponry that doesn't
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: quite exist yet, which I found fascinating and just an
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: attestament to how how valid God is.
• 30:23
  Speaker 5: So most on set, oh go ahead, no Garfield, please, The.
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: Most filling day on set for me was when we
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: got to create Lenny as the creature, when he morphed
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: from the big beast to the little beast to the
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: medium sized beast, and then he changed and we had
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: to have all those costumes and prosthetics kind of built
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: on him, and so it was kind of like a
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: quick change where we ripped it off and there was
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: a new skin and he ripped it off and it
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: was It was really extensive, and of course, yeah, a.
• 30:53
  Speaker 5: Beautiful scene upart in the quick interruption, but you know,
• 30:56
  Speaker 5: we shot it all practically. It was a one take.
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, God insisted, I insisted.
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: And really beautifully done and put together and planned. And
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: you know, people did pan in the movie, but I
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: felt like we really swung for the fences on that one.
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: It was nice. I would say, if we could go back,
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: I would say, we shouldn't have done it in an
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: ultra wide shot. I should I think we should have
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: had a close up because I worked so hot on
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: the details. You know, didn't tell me until we shot
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: it that it was gonna be a really big why
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: I want.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: I wanted to be specs on a chalkboard, you know.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: I wanted it to feel like you were lost in
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: the expanse of the universe in that moment.
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you just had me doing scales and you had
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: me doing timey details. You know, I had the right scales.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I just I guess I didn't realize because
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: we were all kind of standing so close to you
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: guys in the white you know, I wasn't behind camera.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: We were all hiding behind the bushes, so it felt
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: so close to I thought it was beautiful, and then
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: you know, you see the dailies and you go, oh,
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: that's what I got.
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: I try to stop it. You said, this looks amazing.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: Let's go back and you started running hundreds of feet
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: and I, this ain't gonna I love.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: Every moment on set when Derrett would just run Darren,
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: What can I say?
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: I was excited. I was so excited to get to
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: those ultra whites, you know, and get to those close ups.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: When he's excited. He runs when he's angry, he runs
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: when he's a little confused.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: And also I was very scared of through a lot
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: of this movie, so I was running away a lot
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: of the times. You know, Lenny, credit to you, you
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: would you would scare me to death, and I would
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: run away.
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: It was incredibly difficult to communicate with the director who
• 32:32
  Speaker 5: was terrified of me, and so I would find I
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: realized I had to find ways to ask for notes
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: and do blocking without Derret seeing me. But because it
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: was difficult.
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: It was very Sometimes I would bring a mirror around
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: so I could face the mirror at him, but that
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: didn't work. I found that it was even more scary,
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: kind of like holding a mirror over my shoulder and
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: going Lenny, and he would go yeah, and then he
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: would turn. I would see him in the mirror's reflection.
• 32:58
  Speaker 5: Spooky mirrors don't change the image you're looking at it
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: just shows you the image.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: But yeah, and I've got a quick, quick sprint. I'm
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: going under ten sects per hundred so i can get
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: far fast.
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: I've never seen legs go that wide during a run.
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: I swear they will go in almost one hundred and
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: eighty degrees.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: Why So, yeah, I'm so happy. That was a great day.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: Ended up being a little far in the movie.
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: But what was you almost fulfilling day, Derek?
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: Okay, well, there's a lot. You know, I really poured
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: my heart and soul into this movie. But I think
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: the moment that it all came together was just when
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: we filmed the finale scene of where Lenny as the
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: child eats Patricia and Sam and it's kind of right
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: after Patricia and Sam and you kind of like my
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: goal was for the audience to really understand the theme.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: And I got to say we were working as a
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: unit that day. You know, the voiceover from Robert is
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: killing it. The physicality from Lenny was there, and then
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: we had Garfield being quiet and just doing his job,
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: and and and father O'Malley with the specific kind of
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: notes about how to do this scene just kind of
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: unwarranted just giving his own thoughts. I thought was great
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: and I'd love to play this clip if we have
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: the time. This really honed in the meaning of the
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: movie for me, So yeah, let's roll this clip the Father.
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry, I cannot control it anymore.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: We're at the bottom of the night and the Dodgers
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: are running in down.
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: Oh it's the Red Sox and it's a throw in
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: the backfud.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna eat them. No, he's gonna eat us. I'm
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: gonna eat him first condemn. Oh no, oh no. That's
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: a picture to the short stop and a short stop
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: and it is running down the field.
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: Don't you see our daughter's a metaphor for loss.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: You never dealt with.
• 35:09
  Speaker 6: The grief of knowing my father less. I never hold
• 35:13
  Speaker 6: on to that, and I bet you ever too. I
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: bet you're holding baggage on it.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: That's a great fucking fun alley.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I got the note that the kind of
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: nondescript baseball happening in the background was very distracting. But
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: you know, Robert was killing it on set. You know,
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: did necessarily it makes sense when he said something like
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: the balls going to the shortstop, and now the shortstop's
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: running to second No, that made no sense at all,
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: but it made them, which was a shock to me.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: You always showed up in tons of Dodger gear. So
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: I just so you know, if you do.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: Uge, people know what you're talking, people think, do you
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: know what you're talking about? That's something I've learned for many,
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: many years.
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: Even in the movie Wise, multiple characters say that the
• 36:08
  Speaker 5: month is January. It's discussed repeatedly. And the baseball season,
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: I mean, if you include spring training is about April
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: to October. So it just didn't track for people. And
• 36:19
  Speaker 5: we had we had late, late, late night arguments Darren
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: and I about this, and you.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: Know, and very very intense, and that's really where a
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: lot of my anger sprinting came out. You know, you
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: would say something that would start boiling my blood and
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: I just have to take a two hundred you know,
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: take a two hundred meter.
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: And when I look back at it, I think the
• 36:41
  Speaker 5: reason I would want to get into those late night
• 36:43
  Speaker 5: arguments is I was just trying to stay up late
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: to see if Dianna would show up Gartha's wife, and yeah,
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: I could. I was having a lot of sleepless nice
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: because I was absolutely in love and not knowing that
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: I was getting essentially betrayed by my friend and VFX
• 36:59
  Speaker 5: Special Effecsports.
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: My dear friend, you are not being betrayed. I saw
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: all the messages messages you sent her on WhatsApp, and
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: I want to let you know that I was the
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: one receiving them. I gave you my WhatsApp information, so
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: please stop sending them. I know you still are this
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: and I am sending you messages back.
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: I'm leading you on.
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: This is unbelievable.
• 37:19
  Speaker 5: The things I sent, the poems I wrote.
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: I'm telling you right now. I wanted to tell because
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: I knew you were going to be here, so I
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: wanted to talk to you right now. Those poems, these
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: poems I have right here, they are.
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: Lude.
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: They are disgusting, disgusting.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Lenny, I gotta say, shalt not cover your
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: neighbor's wife. And that's what I've been saying for a
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: long long time. Buddy, you got to get a handle
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: on this.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: I thought it was okay. I had told Garfield I
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: was interested. It wasn't as if I was doing it.
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: You know, it was an honest set.
• 37:53
  Speaker 5: It was an honest set, and I do dabble. I
• 37:57
  Speaker 5: do dabble a bit in pornographic poetry.
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: Would you know what? I think you should read them?
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: You should read them that poem you sent.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: I want to know what I got to forgive you for? Please? Please?
• 38:11
  Speaker 5: All right, all right, let's let me just go through
• 38:14
  Speaker 5: the what's even Just looking back at my phone, I'm
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: humiliated to see some of the pictures I sent here,
• 38:18
  Speaker 5: knowing that they were.
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: I don't know how you got those photos of me,
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: but they are not flattering. I can't believe you sent.
• 38:25
  Speaker 5: Them pictures of her own husband said this is the guy,
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: and I would take ugly pictures of him, and I
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: would talk to them just a little bit, and I'd say,
• 38:34
  Speaker 5: you sure.
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: You took a photo of me at Noah's Bagels when
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: I accidentally dropped and entire everything bagel on my shirt,
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: the outline of cream cheese as I scrambled to try
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: to pick it up off the ground. I don't know
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: how you were there for that.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Are you doing all this and reporting to work as
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: a rope for to.
• 38:52
  Speaker 5: Yes, I do. I mean it is a I don't
• 38:55
  Speaker 5: sleep much, but true love is a crazy thing.
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: Be true.
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: Let me dip into one of these poems just because
• 39:02
  Speaker 5: it was requested. Let's see, all right, my sweet darling Deanna,
• 39:08
  Speaker 5: what I wouldn't give to be your manna? My love
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: for you is as strong as a rock. One day
• 39:15
  Speaker 5: i'd like you to feel my throbbing.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: Penis great break on the rhyme there.
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: Thank you, bother you like that?
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean biblically, I biblically I hate it. Biblically
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: I detest it. But it's a guy who's just like
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: one of you guys, a guy who loves crafty.
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: It my man, father, that's a real man right there.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: Oh, stop it.
• 39:43
  Speaker 5: From the priest that worked out American Pietry christ Gap.
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: You know, I've seen a lot. I've seen a lot,
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: That's what I'll say.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: Well, here here's a great question just following it. Father
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: on Miley, what was your favorite day?
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: My favorite day? Oh gosh, I think it was, you know, Darren,
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: it was. It was a day with you and I
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: when you know, we came to heads on something and
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: you were running back and forth. You were not okay,
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: you were a little upset with me. But I insisted
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: that you know, the proper steps for requesting a bishop
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: to do the exorcism were followed, and that means putting
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: in a request with the archdisis and waiting about six
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: to eight months for the process to go through. And
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: I really wanted that process to be authentic, and I
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: kind of insisted. I said, I'm putting my foot down.
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: This is not how it would go down in real life.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: You would not have someone three days just sprinting over
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: to exercise the child. You know, we gotta wait six
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: to eight months. And so finally you halted production.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was That was one. I would say one
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: of my toughest days was having to halt production for
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: six to eight months. It turned out to be eight
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: and a half months.
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: And you said on the day you said, this will
• 41:03
  Speaker 5: be six to eight months. Everybody go home.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: It was just we got this big. You guys heard it.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: We were yelling at each other from the trailer. Father
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: Amalley is literally cursing me in a in a Catholic way.
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: You know, it felt very dark. I walk out. You
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: guys are going, what happened? I go go home. We
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: got six to eight months.
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: Those Catholic curses. I hate to use them, but sometimes
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: when films aren't following the proper procedure. You know, you
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: gotta break one out. It's it's it's in his name.
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: Can you can you give us a Catholic curse because
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: very few people know about these. There's a whole other
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: secret curse word iconography, lexicon.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: Yes, so this is in the Book of Curses if
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: you open up to sixteen thirteen. So this one, it's
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: kind of in Roman, but I'll do my best to translate.
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: So it's great. It's skin I'm all force, going all
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: Baskin and men, And that loosely translates to reverse the Christ,
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: have him come for you, you know, and that flips
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: sort of Jesus's whole deal. He was here to die
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: for your sins. Now he's going to make you die
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: for his sins. And that's sort of a little Catholic
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: switcheroo we to have going on.
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: And when you said this to me, I was pissed.
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: I was like, you know, fuck you, I'm not what
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: the fuck you saying? You can't do this? And so yeah,
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: I was a really tough day, but I'm glad it
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: was one of your favorites. He would come out. I say,
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: we got six to eight months. I take off on
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: a quick half mile sprint right away, father and mout
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: is screaming from the Book of Curses. You know, I'm
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: so glad it was one of your favorite days. I'm
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: so glad.
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: I remember multiple times on set I would kind of
• 42:47
  Speaker 5: overhear the producer saying to you, Derek, you know, the
• 42:51
  Speaker 5: consultants should have very little power on this set. They
• 42:56
  Speaker 5: are here, it's almost just to make, you know, wash
• 42:59
  Speaker 5: our hands, make sure or were any complaints. And you said,
• 43:02
  Speaker 5: the consultant is more important than the writer.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: Yea, more important, because what if what is art if
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: we're not? If not, the consultant is first. If not,
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: the person from the outside who gives thoughts and opinions
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: a little too much has the most.
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: And I was pleasantly surprised because when I told the
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: folks in my Catholic group chat about, uh, you know,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: how I was finally being listened to. They they were
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: they couldn't believe it, you know, because normally we're on
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: the sidelines. We're offering, you know, little valid tidbits on
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: what the Bible actually says, but we're never given this
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: level of power. And I thank you. I love the power,
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: the power.
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: I've never seen I've never seen before. I've never seen
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: a Catholic peace priests manning a camera as well. You
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: put him on the dolly. Whoah, you let him, You
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: let him take the shots because he said, I can
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: see what God can see, and God has specific angles
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: that he'd liked to use.
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: A blast.
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: I loved it.
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: Right before before we shot you. You would get the camera.
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: You'd say, set in Jesus name or in fathered name
• 44:05
  Speaker 4: or something like that.
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: And father name. I think you said, yeah, yeah, I.
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: Said, in father's name, the father's son, the Holy two shot,
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: let's roll, and I would say I would swap out
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: the name of the shot each time because.
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: I thought we lost all that was unusable, completely out
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: of focus, sometimes focused on none of the actors, or
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: half the actor's faces cut off. I don't know why.
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: I just believed you when you said I've run a
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: dolly before and I know how to do it well.
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you have to lie to get what you want.
• 44:32
  Speaker 5: That's what it's hard to know what to do with
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: that great amount of power on set, Father O'Malley. I mean,
• 44:39
  Speaker 5: I know you don't get it on other films. And
• 44:42
  Speaker 5: to bring it back one more time to American pri
• 44:44
  Speaker 5: American Pie Christ Camp. They mispronounced Jesus a few times
• 44:47
  Speaker 5: in that movie, so obviously they weren't even listening to you.
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: And no, they didn't listen to me one bit.
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: They called him. They call him Jim s a couple
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: of times, Jim Ass I heard.
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: I was screaming, but at the top of my lungs,
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: I was holding up Bibles, going in it's Jesus, It's Jesus.
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: If you really some people say Jesus, Jesu or hey Sus,
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: those are all fine, You're not even close. I had
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: a nervous breakdown on that set. It was a nightmare.
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: But Jason Biggs really brought it home. I thought he
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: gave a great performance.
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: Absolutely absolutely. I mean it reinvigorated his career.
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: I think we agree that really did well.
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: Lenny, what was your favorite day?
• 45:28
  Speaker 5: You know, it is so hard to say because this
• 45:31
  Speaker 5: job is very tough. You're in all of that makeup,
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: your sweating. It takes about it took about, what would
• 45:38
  Speaker 5: you say, Garfield, seven hours to get into.
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: Makeup seven hours per creature. Yeah, so when we did
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: the four creature day, that was twenty eight hours.
• 45:45
  Speaker 5: That was a twenty eight hour day where they were
• 45:47
  Speaker 5: just packing. But we you know, as for best day
• 45:50
  Speaker 5: on set, I hate to do this to you, Robert,
• 45:52
  Speaker 5: but most of my best days were when Robert didn't
• 45:54
  Speaker 5: know where we were shooting, because I could actually fully
• 45:56
  Speaker 5: focus on my job and do it instead of having
• 45:59
  Speaker 5: some one else saying what I was doing, or Robert
• 46:04
  Speaker 5: frequently would be the seven o'clock news announcing some pretty
• 46:09
  Speaker 5: horrific events that were apparently happening in the world while
• 46:12
  Speaker 5: we were shooting scenes that we then had to react
• 46:14
  Speaker 5: to and fold into the story.
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: Oh that that that hurts me to hear, Lenny, because
• 46:20
  Speaker 4: there were in full count four days I missed that
• 46:26
  Speaker 4: that fucking pa didn't tell me where y'all were, And
• 46:32
  Speaker 4: that that hurts me because I thought we had a
• 46:34
  Speaker 4: really good working relationship together, because I mean sure, I
• 46:38
  Speaker 4: spoke over every single one of your lines while we
• 46:41
  Speaker 4: were in intense makeup and I was just in my khakis.
• 46:46
  Speaker 5: It means you can't read social cues, because on set
• 46:49
  Speaker 5: I would sigh when you showed up. I would I
• 46:51
  Speaker 5: could not make eye contact with you. I was so
• 46:53
  Speaker 5: frustrated with you.
• 46:55
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: I've heard this before, and I choose to keep going
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: so you.
• 47:02
  Speaker 5: Can read social cues. You just choose not to.
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: It's not no.
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: Sometimes I see them and I think I'm overthinking it.
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: You're not all right.
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: I'll say my favorite day on ZET was probably when
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: I got to announce nine to eleven in the back
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: of the uh as we.
• 47:23
  Speaker 5: Said the movie takes place in January twenties.
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: That was a tough thing to edit around. That was it.
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: But you were insistent it felt good to report. Oh no, no, no.
• 47:37
  Speaker 5: No, we've heard the audio, Robert. You were feeling good.
• 47:43
  Speaker 3: Too, excited, you said you, I'm not gonna believe this. Boy,
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: oh boy, do I have a story for y'all.
• 47:52
  Speaker 5: You know when you can just hear someone is smiling
• 47:54
  Speaker 5: when they're now it was because.
• 47:57
  Speaker 4: I felt important, Lenny, Okay, I felt important for the
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: first goddamn time on that set.
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: Well, you know when when Anderson Cooper really lays into Trump,
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: but you can tell he has a little smile.
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: What I felt like she was laying into nine to eleven.
• 48:14
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, I'm sorry.
• 48:17
  Speaker 4: It sucks to It sucks when you're not even on
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: the call sheet at all, your first name on the
• 48:22
  Speaker 4: call show.
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: Well, I kind of say you were on the call
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: sheet and one of the only people in the call
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: sheet for the months after in post.
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: You know, I don't care about that.
• 48:30
  Speaker 5: I have no empathy for you. You get paid way
• 48:33
  Speaker 5: more than me. You only have to do like two
• 48:36
  Speaker 5: hours of work. You have a very good job, Robert. Okay,
• 48:42
  Speaker 5: so do.
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: You, mister Rowe. It sounds sounding a walk in the park.
• 48:47
  Speaker 3: I don't get paid.
• 48:50
  Speaker 5: You know, people in sirt To they'll urinate on anything.
• 48:53
  Speaker 5: You know, they're they're European heard that. It's a humiliating job.
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: Nightmare stories of circus la.

  Speaker 2: He did all those experiments to figure out which tape
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: was the best.
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: He was cutting people up and shopping in places to
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: see how strong the gads could get.

  Speaker 2: hours out of the day just for father's blasses.
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: Father, Father, when you did it to me, why don't
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: you close your eyes?
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: Garfield, I don't know. It must have been must have
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: been unintentional. I don't know what to tell you.
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: That's crazy because I remember you saying me to me
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: on the side. You whispered to me after it. You said,
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: if a priest closes his eyes, it doesn't count it.
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: Well, I.
• 51:28
  Speaker 5: Like a little big piece of chocolate.
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: Cake, very coy and slid.
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: Okay, fine, gar I couldn't. In the Book of Curses,
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: it says you were but you close your eyes. The
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: same thing applies for chocolate cake. There's a little asterisk
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: at the bottom that says, or chocolate cake, if you
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: close your eyes while you're doing a blessing, it's actually
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: a curse. And I'm so sorry. Garfield. I was in
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: a rough place. I was in a rough place. I
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: found out that there was a separate priest group chat
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: without me, where it was everybody from the first one
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: without me, that's and they would send each other pictures
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: of my tweets.
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: Well, yours were crazy. They are out there.
• 52:12
  Speaker 5: Well, it's just it is twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen. You
• 52:16
  Speaker 5: don't need to write the whole setup and then the
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: punchline where you would you would like reference a news story,
• 52:22
  Speaker 5: but you would explain the story like you were Leno.
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: A four part tweet.
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well I would do. I don't understand why everyone
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: was so mad, because I would do you know it?
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: There would be four part tweets and the first one
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: was have you seen this? Have you heard about this?
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: And then the second one would be the first half
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: of the news story, The third would be the second
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: half of the news story, and then the fourth would
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: be the big roundabout punchline. And I don't know why
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: everyone was so upset.
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: Every one, So I include that fifth that was just
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: the gift of a band playing yeah, And.
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: Sometimes I'd throw out a sixth one that was the
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: Jennifer Lawrence spitting out water to signify that it was funny.
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: But you know, we all have a different sense of humor.

• 55:30
  Speaker 1: That's fantastic because if you it'd be concerning if you

  Speaker 1: for you on the project I'm working on right now.
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: It's Emily in Paris season two, and they go to
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: the catacombs quite a bit, and so that's.
• 58:38
  Speaker 2: Where what is she doing in the catacoats? Well, she she.
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: In like an effort to do some sort of social
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: media promo. She heads to the Bible. She finds some
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: pages that were put in that we're all upside down.
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: She figures out that there's a secret thing in the
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: catacombs that's like a super feminist piece of art, and
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: so she goes down there and she gets a little possessed.
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: And so I've been working with Lily Collins on you know,
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: proper possession technique and Lenny. You know, there is I
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: believe an uncast, unnamed monster in the film that hasn't
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: been quite set up yet. So I will I will
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: put in a good one.
• 59:18
  Speaker 5: I mean, a huge departure from the first season. It
• 59:20
  Speaker 5: sounds like, but very curious to see work shifted.
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: It really took that to heart.
• 59:27
  Speaker 5: So it took some genres put on them.
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: Garfield, you got anything coming up?
• 59:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I just wrapped up Wanda Vision and then I'm
• 59:34
  Speaker 3: about to be uh. I think there's a new season
• 59:36
  Speaker 3: of Thought.
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: And that was amazing.
• 59:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they really let me fly there and it really
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: was exciting to finally be able to do what I
• 59:43
  Speaker 3: can do. And I think I'm doing some with gm
• 59:46
  Speaker 3: o'del Toro. It's about a bunch of creatures opening a
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: car wash or something like that that goes so good.
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: That sounds funny.
• 59:56
  Speaker 5: Of all the people I could have a rivalry with.
• 59:58
  Speaker 5: It had to be the one who's working on the
• 59:59
  Speaker 5: things I could actually do.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: God blessed. Gianna says, hey, by the way, just kidding.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 3: She doesn't know you fucking exist, Lenny.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 5: Fuck you. If I wasn't tied up into a captain's
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 5: not right now, I would tear you asunder.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 3: Why do you think I made you beige?
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 5: Lenny?
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: Why do you think that character was beage because you
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 3: blend in with the background, so you thought she was
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: staring at you. She was staring at the walls.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: Okay, bless you, bless you, bless you, bless you, bless you,
