The Coppola Controversy: Hollywood Power, Scandal & Twixt · Midnight Movie Theatre

• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Francis Ford Coppola saw Twilight and said, this motherfuck is spitting,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: so he made his own version in twenty eleven. The
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: version of Twigs that I watched is the re edit
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: known as B TwixT now in Sunrise that was released
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two. This updated edit is the version
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: that Copola intended to put out. Apparently, during the film
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: festival cycle of this movie, Copola would edit the film live,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: putting scenes together in different order on the fly, so
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: just reimagining the movie as he was going. Festival goers
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: didn't know what the fuck was going on. This guy
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: was just flying off the seat of his ass do
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: whatever he wanted. So I think that explains some of
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: the pacing issues with the movie. This did feel like
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: a little bit lopsided, and it seems like it was
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: kind of meant to be flexible. I'm guessing if he
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: was doing on the fly edits like that. One of
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the things that this movie kind of reinforced for me
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: is that talent doesn't necessarily last forever. It seems that,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: like a lot of great directors are a lot of
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: great artists, best work is often in the earlier stages
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: of their career. I feel like that, especially with bands
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: and music. For the most part, it seems like most
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: bands or musicians or whatever, their first few albums are
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: so are typically their best. And maybe not in all cases,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: but I feel like in most that's when you're going
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: to find their most inspiring work. For whatever reason, I'm
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: not sure why that is. I don't know if maybe
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: they run out of juice. Is there some sort of
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: limit on how much good shit you can put out?
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I just can't really think of a band that's gone
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: on for an extended period of time that's put out
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: consistently like amazing albums, maybe consistently good or maybe like
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: you know, the quality stays the same, but you know,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I feel like there's always that one or two or
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: maybe three like standout albums, and it seems like it's
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: typically in their earlier part of their career. Since most
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: people will see this movie because it was written, directed,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: and edited by Francis Ford Coppola, I think it's worth
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: talking about him in a little bit more detail. Now.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: The most obvious thing would be bringing up some of
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: the legendary films Coppola worked on, like Platoon, The Godfather movies,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: or even Bram Stoker's Dracula, and that would make a
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: lot of sense since this is kind of a vampire movie.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: But something that doesn't get talked about enough is his
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: involvement with Jeepers. Creepers director Victor Salva. Victor Salva was
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: discovered by Copla at a film festival, and he quickly
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: took a shine to the young director. Copla offered to
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: help get funding for his movie Clownhouse, which is a
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: movie that's about three brothers that get attacked by serial
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: killers dressed as clowns. Well, one of the child actors
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: in Clownhouse, Nathan Forrest Winters, had worked with Salva in
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: some of his previous films, and his family had become
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: family friends with Salva. I think they would even occasionally
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: let him babysit or kind of like take him on
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: little trips and stuff like that. You know. I don't
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: think I would ever be okay with anything like that,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: but this was the eighties. People were a little bit
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: more I think open to having like this sort of
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: relationship with family friends and whatnot. Anyway, on set, some
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: of the crew noticed that Salva had Nathan sitting on
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: his lap a little too much, to the point where
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: they notified Nathan's mom. When she showed up and tried
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: to question what was going on, Victor had her band
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: from the set. She was no longer allowed to come
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: on the set of Clownhouse and ask any questions about
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: her son's well being, which is crazy. Eventually, Nathan told
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: his mom about some of the other things that Victor
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: was doing with him. His mom calls the police or
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: the FBI, can't remember for sure which, and Victor's house
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: gets raided. He's caught with a huge collection of kitty
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: porn and home videos of him raping Nathan. So so
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: he's cooked, right, that's what you would expect from this.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: From this, you know, unrefutable evidence that this guy's been
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: raping a twelve year old. Well, not really, unfortunately, because
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: his friend Francis Ford Coppola has a shitload of money
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: and influence, so Victor gets expensive lawyers paid by Copola.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Copola sends him as lawyers and they're able to work
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: his sentence down to three years. He served fifteen months
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: of those three years, and according to Nathan, most of
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: that time was in a rehab center, so he's not
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: even like in pri In most of the time, according
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: to Victor though when he was in prison, he was
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: nearly beaten to death and all this stuff, and it
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: was the worst time ever. But I think the records
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: show that he spent like a few months in jail.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: I don't even think it was like full blown prison. Anyway,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: During the time Victor is in jail, they still have
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: to do the overdubbing for Clownhouse. Apparently Coppola was able
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: to secure the cameras that were used for American Graffiti
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: from George Lucas to film Clownhouse, and those cameras were
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: fairly old, so they were so loud they couldn't use
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: any of the audio from the shoots that they did.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: So twelve year old Nathan Winners has to go to
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Francis Ford Coppola's house and dub his lines for the movie,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: and according to him, the entire time he's there, Copola
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: is just talking shit to him and telling him that
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: he's going to be blackballed from the acting community and
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: he's never going to work again in the industry, which
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: I think is the truth. I do think that that
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: happened because you I don't know if Nathan Winners is
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: still acting, and shit, I didn't look that up. But
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: this is all reported by Nathan in an interview, and
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: I think a documentary about this whole thing. But destroying
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Nathan's acting career wasn't enough for Coppola. He also sued
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: the Winters family for five million dollars due to a
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: breach of contract, and I don't think those court details
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: are public or readily available. At least I cann't find
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: anything about it. But I'm not exactly sure what the
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: breach of contract was. I heard from a YouTube video
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: that I watched on the Dreading what was it, Dreading
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Crime and Psychology Channel. I believe there was, like I
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: don't know if this was speculation or not, but he
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: was saying that there was possibly something in the contract
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: about not telling on someone if they were armed, like minors,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: not being allowed to tell if they were sexually abused
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: or something like that. I don't know. It's unreal to
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: even imagine this whole thing, this family that is going
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: through something as horrible as this, then a lawsuit gets
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: filed against them by one of the most powerful directors
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: in Hollywood. When I learned about all this, I couldn't
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: believe it. The first thing you expect to hear when
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: you think about Francis Ford Coppola is how much of
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: a genius he is and what an extremely talented director
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: he is. Possibly made some of the best movies of
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: all time, and all of that is probably true, but
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: it should also be noted that he is a little
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: piece of shit as well, So just wanted to put
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: that out before we get into one of his most
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: recent pieces of work. TwixT is about a writer that's
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: going through a pretty shitty time. He's stuck writing books
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: about witches that he doesn't really seem to give a
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: flying fuck about, but they pay the bills, so he's
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: doing it anyway. The town that he ends up going
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to for this book signing it's weird as fuck. There's
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: a clock tower with seven faces that tell all different times,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: so them bitches are just chiming all day long. Every
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: couple of minutes there's another goddamn chime going off. There's
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: some goth kids that the sheriff thinks are vampires. We
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: don't know if this is true or not. And there's
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: also a string of strengths where the victims always end
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: up with like a wooden steak through their heart. So
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: this is where we're starting off. One of the things
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: that really worked for me in this movie that I
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: enjoyed personally, I don't know if everybody would or not,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: was Val Kilmer. I'm a fan of Kilmer, even in
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: some of his more questionable roles, I just always find
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: them entertaining. I like him in mcgruber. I think he's
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: hilarious in that movie. I think his timing and just
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: just his mannerisms are really funny. Obviously, the Doors movie
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: he's great as Jim Morrison, and The Island at Doctor Merrow.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Those are probably my three favorite Val Kilmer movies. I've
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: actually I've never seen Top Guns, so I can't even
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: talk about that one. It's just one of those movies
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: that I don't really think i'd give too much of
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: a shit about. I'm sure it's probably good, and eventually
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: i'll watch it someday, But who really wants to watch
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: a movie about a bunch of hunks playing volleyball and
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: flying and around in fucking plays, you know. Not something
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: I'm rushing to go see right now. Anyway, At first,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I thought I wasn't going to like Kelmer's performance, but
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: like I said, it's pretty fine. Overall, it's pretty fun.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: He says a lot of goofy shit, and there's a
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: scene where he's trying to write his next book, so
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: he sits down and gets his laptop ratty and his
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: booze out and everything, and like while he's brainstorming, he
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: starts doing a Marlon Brando impression, which is pretty great.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: And he also does an impression that he calls a
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: basketball player, so that was pretty fantastic as well. There's
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: a cool dream scene where he sneaks into the town
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: morgue and he goes to the dead body with a
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: steak in it. This girl, it's like a little girl.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Her name is v or I think Virginia is her
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: full name. But she's laying there with a steak in
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: her chest and he goes up to it, pulls the
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: steak out, and a giant fountain of blood just shoots
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: up at him. Ve gets up, her teeth turned into
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: vampire things, and as they're like expanding his popping out
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: or whatever, they bust her braces off her face, and
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: her braces go shoot right by Marlon Brando, right by
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: fucking Val Kilmer's head. His name in the movie is
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Hall Baltimore, so they go flying right by Hall's head.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: The movie has a decent amount of humor in it,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: like with that those two scenes being said, like, it
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: has enough funny moments in it to where I feel
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: like Kilmer's performance does it justice. I'm not sure if
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: this is labeled as some sort of comedy or not,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: but it's it's funny either way. Another thing I liked
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: is that there is kind of a mystery in this movie.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: I'm always up for a mystery movie. There is a
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: problem with it, though, and this one. The pacing just
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: kind of fucks over any real interest I had in
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: figuring out what was going on. And also it's super
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: obvious about probably less than halfway through the movie what
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: the reveal is going to be. Not only is it
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: obvious for the audience, but it seems like Hall Baltimore
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: also figures it out. There's like a scene where they
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: do a seance with a Ouiji board, and the Ouiji
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: board basically tells him what's going on, or at least
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: like gives him enough clue to where you see him
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: get suspicious over somebody in the room and it ends
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: up being that person. And it just kind of seems
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: like it would be that person anyway. Just the way
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: the movie's adding up and how this character acts are
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: kind of like, Okay, this motherfucker's not right. But after
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: that happens, the scene just cuts and he goes back
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: to doing a bunch of dumb shit around town, like
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: pissing outside and drugging himself to sleep so that he
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: can dream about Edgar Allan Poe. For some reason, I
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: didn't understand why the fuck ed Grellan Poe's in this
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: movie so much, so we have to talk about the
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: ed Grellan Poe shit right now. So Poe stayed the
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: night at a hotel in this town, like in the
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: eighteen hundreds or whatever. So Hall keeps dreaming about him,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: and ed Grellan Poe keeps giving him clues to what's
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: going or on around in town and what's the fucking
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: point of this whole mystery or whatever, And he's also
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: helping him write his book, which you know, it's kind
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: of all it all gets splendid together. We'll talk about
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: that a little more too, But it gets to the
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: point where at the end of the movie, Poe just
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: tells him exactly what's going on and takes him to
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: the cliff and Hall is able to work through this
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: grief that over his daughter's accident. So Hall's daughter died
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: in a boating accident a while back, I can't remember
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: if it says how many years ago. And he talks
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: about how he intentionally didn't go with her to this
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: boating event or this boating thing that she was planning
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: because he was hungover. So he gets hung over, he
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: gets fucking drunk, and he purposely, purposefully like sets his
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: alarm too late in the day to where he doesn't
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: wake up in time to go with her. And he
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: tells her like, ah, I'm busy, I can't go fucking
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: boating with you. Go boting by yourself. And then she
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: like gets her fucking head knocked off by a rope
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: or something, so he blames himself. Also, there's a part
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: where Edgar Allan Poe starts going on about how v
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: or Virginia, this little girl is his young cousin and
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: also his wife, so he's a fucking freak. I don't
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: know if this is true or not. I kind of
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: get the feeling it is, because I feel like you
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: would hear this, you'd hear about this shit all the time.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Back in this time, like, uh, well it was the
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: guy that wrote fucking Great Balls of Fire that wasn't
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: even in the eighteen hundreds. I was like in the
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: nineteen fifties. Didn't at that fucking freak Mary his cousin.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Two fucking dumb asses. Anyway, the movie is like half
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: dream half reality, which overall I can't say. I really
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: like the way this movie looks everything. It looks very
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: digital even when it's not dream time. During the dreams,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: it's kind of like the movie Sin City. Everything is
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: mostly black and white, but they'll highlight the color like
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: red sometimes. I don't think there was I can't remember
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: if there were any other colors that get highlighted, but
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: there are some other Sin City moments that we'll get
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: into later as well. Another thing that kind of fucking
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: sucked was that the dialogue felt a little too ad libbed.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: The conversation a Hall has with his wife over this
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: zoom call is especially disjointed. They're practically talking over each
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: other the whole time, and it seems like they can't
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: even hear each other. Like I'm assuming these two actors
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: Val Kilmer and whoever this other fucking lady is I'm
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: assuming they must have recorded this shit, you know, at
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: different times, but for whatever reason, when they edited it,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: they put it together like it's like they can't fucking
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: hear each other. Like he's just like, hey, bitch, I
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: gotta fucking go now, I gotta fucking finish doing my
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: shit that I'm doing. I gotta go take a piss
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: outside because he loves pissing outside in this movie. And
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: she's just like, I'm gonna sell your fucking expensive book.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: I found this book that you have and I found
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: out that it's worth one hundred and sixty thousand dollars.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: And since your shitty books aren't selling anymore and we
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: don't have any money, I'm gonna sell this fucking rare book.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: And he's like, no, don't fucking sell it, bitch. It's priceless.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Don't ever sell it. It's my favorite book and shit.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: And she's like, you got ten days to get me
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: some fucking money, bitch, or I'm gonna sell the fucking book.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: And then they just like close the laptop on each other.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know, despite I don't know if any of
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: that's important, but it does happen in the movie. It's important. Okay,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: despite the look and the dialogue, I do think the
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: acting performances are fun to watch. In this movie, we
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: have a young Ella Fanning who plays V. I don't
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: know if it's Ellie or Ella. I don't know, I'll
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: give a shit, who is kind of like maybe a
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: vampire in the story, maybe not. V is the person
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: that was staked through the heart when Hall gets to town, though,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: so he like sees her dead body and then he
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: starts dreaming about her and she's like, you know, you
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: gotta help me and shit. Anyway, so I kind of
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: went over with some of the things that I liked
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: and didn't like. This movie is supposed to feel scattered
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: because the time in this town doesn't really exist because
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: all the fucking clock towers. There's also some shit about
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: like the devil lives in the clock tower, but I
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: don't know if that's just like some town lord bullshit
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: that we don't really ever get into that much. That
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter, So maybe that's how they get away with
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: this whole thing. That really has me fired up. The
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: thing that really makes my sack swell is that the
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: story we're being told isn't always what's happening in real life.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: It all gets kind of blended together because a lot
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: of the dream stuff is just supposed to be what
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: Hall is writing for his new book, but it's based
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: off of these events that did really happen in this
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: town in the nineteen fifties where all these kids were
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: murdered by this priest. That also gets mixed together with
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: this girl v that was murdered right when Hall gets
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: to town. Eventually, Hall figures out that Bobby Lagrange, the sheriff,
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: has been killing these gos teenagers that he believes are
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: slutty vampires. For some reason. I don't really think they
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: do a very good job explaining why he thinks they're
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: sluty vampires, because if the dream shit's not real but
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: the real shit is, then I don't know. I guess
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: just because he's crazy, It doesn't really you know, there's
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: not really too many reasons. Yeah, so we do see,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: like in the dreams there's this priest that is that
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: kills these kids, and that is something that really happened
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: in the fifties or whatever, and I was starting to assume, Okay,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Bobula Grange is going to be the priest, but then
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: we find out in the dream that the priest hangs himself.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: So that's all just fiction, and what's really really happening
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: is that Bobbula Grange is killing these slutty vampire teenagers
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: because they're sluts and he doesn't like him, I guess.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: And we haven't even really got into the gods teenage vampires.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: There's this group of goth teens that are led by
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: this kid whose name is Flamingo that speaks French and shit.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: So they make a big deal about these fuckers early on,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: but then we don't really hear about them throughout most
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: of the movie until the end when Lagrange arrests Flamingo
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: for no reason at all. Maybe it's because he heard
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: him speaking French, and you know what, on second thought,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: that is a pretty good reason to arrest this little
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: young fucker, this little young blood looking ass motherfucker. The
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: other Sin City moment is when Flamingu The other Sin
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: City moment is when Flamingo rescues V from the priest
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: on his motorcycle. He does like an evil canieval style
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: jump over an entire lake and it looks like clownshit,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: but he rescues V and then as they're riding away
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: on the motorcycle. He bites her on the neck and
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: a little bit of blood comes out. It's all sin
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: city looking because the blood's red and they're black and white. So,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: you know, is this the worst vampire movie out there? No?
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Is it a vampire movie kind of if you count
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: dream vampires? Is this movie Coppola's worst movie ever? Honestly,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: that's TBD. I haven't watched Megalopolis yet, and from what
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: I've heard, I think I'd personally prefer TwixT over megalop
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: But we'll have to wait and see. Next week, we're
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: either going to talk about the movie visitor Q or Basket,
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: So go over to Instagram or YouTube devote on next
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: week's movie. Thanks for tuning in. Good Night,
