  Speaker 1: He's got some other movies that are fucking wild as
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: hell and like, I don't even know how to describe it.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: He's got this one movie that I watched kind of
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: more recently called it's called like mad Love in English.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: I think the French name for it is like a
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: little more brock. He's got like a weird history because
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: he's a Polish filmmaker. But his early movies he was
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: kind of like a prodigy, like he got picked up
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: really fast from film school and stuff when he was
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: going there, and he made his first movie and it's
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: fucking wild as hell, and the Polish government were like,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: all right, Bud, you're kicked out of fucking Poland for that.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: So they like they kicked him out of the country.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: And then I think it was after his first three
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: movies that he made, They're like, you know, we've seen
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: enough of your shit, get out of here. So he
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: went to France and he made a drama and the
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: drama made a bunch of money, and Poland was like,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: all right, come back, we'll give you all the money
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: you want to make a movie for Poland, you know,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: to like help the economy or whatever. And so basically
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: the movie he was making. They thought it was like
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: too critical of the Polish government, like yeah, so they
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: shut it down when it was like ninety percent done,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: and then like ten years later it got finished, but
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: it's still like an incomplete movie. It's like this crazy
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: sci fi movie. But anyway, he went back to France
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: and made some movies, and this movie that I watched recently,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: it's like a crime It's very almost like lynching in
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: a way, because it's like almost a straightforward crime movie,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: but the way everyone's acting is like they're in a
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: fucking play. They're all just like screaming and running around
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: the whole time and like talking fast as fuck, and
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: there's just all sorts of weird shit that goes on.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: It's like there is a coherent story there, but it's
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: like almost easily lost to just like all this other
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: wild shit that's going on. And it's one of the
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: I don't know, it's not like one of the craziest
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: or like most irving movies or anything like that that
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I've seen, but it's one of the weirder ones for sure,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: And I just all of his movies are kind of
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: like that. There's his first movie that he made there's
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: a live birth in the movie, like a real fucking
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: baby gets born and you see it really yeah, And
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: it threw me off so bad because, like I didn't
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: know anything about it going in. I'd kind of heard
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: that it was about his uh, his dad's experience growing
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: up in Poland during World War Two, so it's about
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: like occupied Poland. So I was thinking, like, it's gonna
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: be kind of fucked up, but you know, we'll see
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: what's what goes on, and out of nowhere there's just
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: a real birth, like up close, and I was just like.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Wait, yeah, what the fuck am I looking at here?
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, He's definitely like does some shit like that
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: in his movies where it's just kind of like, all right,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: this guy is not afraid to do what's at what's
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: going to get his movies like shut down basically. And
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: other than that, though, I mean, there is a lot
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: of like weird shit inness movies, but I feel like
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: it's nothing that crazy, you know what I mean. Like
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know how to describe it, but like I
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: always see like or for a while, I used to
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: see Possession on a lot of people's like Disturbing Movies lists,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: you know, and like, I think that movie's pretty fucked
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: up and has some like really like intense imagery in it,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: but like as far as being like a disturbing movie,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if I would like
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: really say that about it.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: I got to check that out because I usually watch
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: a lot of wild shit.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it seemed like something like this. It's a wild one.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it's one of my favorites, but it's
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: it's kind of like all of it. When you see it,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: I feel like it feels like almost to my sometimes,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: like with the acting, I feel like it really works
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: in that one, But then when you watch some of
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: his other movies, it's like, oh damn, like everyone acts
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: that way, and all of his movies at least the
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: ones that I've seen where they're always just like going
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: at a ten. Yeah, as far as intensity, it has
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Sam Neil in it too, so nice. Yeah, Yeah, young
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Sam Neil's in that. It's pretty it's pretty sick.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I gotta check those out sometimes. Yeah, yeah, I'm
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: gonna look up the Possession.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely Possessions probably that's the one that I think
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: is like the gateway to his movies. I would say, you.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Know what I watched recently now that you bring up
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: like these type of movies was a movie from nineteen
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: eighty one called Roar. Okay, have ever seen that?
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: No?
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: So apparently this filmmaker fucking I don't know if it
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: was the guy like he produced The Exorcist, ors he
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: worked on the Exorcists or whatever, Okay, and a studio
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: gave him basically a blank check to shoot whatever you want,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: fuck yeah movie, and he did this movie called Roar
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: about like all these lions and shit, but they used
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: real lions. There's like fucking thirty lions that this guy
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: is like hanging around, and production like a bunch of
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: people on production got like bit and tore up from guys,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: and like a bunch of people quit and they hired
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: a bunch of more people. And he like even the
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: actors that was in it, they were all like they
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: had to keep acting even if like the lions or
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: the tigers or shit was like tackling them and you
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: could see them struggling in the movie during the scenes.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd be shipping my fucking pants.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: The whole movie was like a huge anxiety attack because like,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: you just can't believe that they're doing this shit with
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: real lions, yeah, film, and it's just scary because it's
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: not like one, two, three, four or five, not even
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: six lines. Bro, It's like a whole gang of them,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: like twenty fucking lions and tigers, and everyone's just around
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: in this little village that this guy like basically build
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: somewhere in California. They took all these lions out of
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: their habitats to come and like hang out with them.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: I think he might have raised some of them too,
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: at this like remote location location that kind of looked
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: like the jungle somewhere.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: That's nuts, bro.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: It's it's it's called Roar from.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna have one. I want to watch it because
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: that sounds like a fucking grizzly Man type of situation
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: where it's like, dude, someone's gonna die. Dude.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: There's literally a like water having like dialogue with each other.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Like two people keep looking over their shoulder looking over
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: their shoulder during the scene, and then one lion just
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: fucking runs up and tackles him, and he's just like, oh,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: they're just playing blah blah blah whatever. So the director
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: basically instructed them like if this happens, keep going with
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: the scene.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: No, dude, I would quit the movie.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: And a bunch of people did. I think the DP
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: actually got like mold like and like he actually had
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: an injury for like months, because yeah, a bunch of
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: people got hurt on it, like it was crazy. I
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: think it might have been the movie that basically started
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: like all the rules for filming.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: Like we need to get some animal rights ship done there.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I don't think they had. They didn't have like fucking
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: like rescue teams and ship like that. Just the case
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: ship was going. They were just like, Noah, we're gonna
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: trust you.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: That's fucking just get the lions. Let them lose. See
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: what happens. You know what can you?
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: Literally they're sitting down inside one of the inside the
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: little house that they're shooting at. Yeah, and there's a
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: ganga lions surrounding them inside this tight space.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Oh god, there's a film there by the way. I
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: hate that. That's like my worst fucking nightmare.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: I was looking at my watch. My heart rate was like, fucking.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Max, You're like, I need a fucking pause this ship
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: for a second. Go take a walk, dude. That's like,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: I mean, legit. One of my worst fears. Like anytime
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: I've ever been out in the mountains like Colorado or
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Oregon or any of those places where there's like some
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: suspicious wildlife around, I'm like, Bud, if I got to
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: fight a fucking tiger or something right now, or a
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: fucking mountain lion, I like, I just want to have
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: a strategy ready, and I want to let everybody know,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: like we gotta beat the fuck this mountain dude.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: The balls on a guy, the least actor in this
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: movie was ridiculous because there was legitimately you've seen where
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: the lions were fighting outside because they had like a
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: dead zebra there that they were eating. And this guy
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: comes running out like trying to stop him from fighting,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: and the lion like goes to attack him, and he's
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: just like like trying to scare the line attacking him,
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: and bro like he jumps in the middle of two
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: lions like fighting.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: What that could have been the end of his life? Nuts, Yeah,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: that could have been his last moment, just running up
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: to that line and just.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: Straight like trying to check him like, yoh my.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: God, I'm the king of the fucking jungle. Bit what
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: are you talking about? You're just some pussy guy like
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: get out of here, that I thought I was gonna
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: have to fucking fight at Deer one time, and that
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: was scary, dude,
