• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Tennessee and western parts of Virginia. And stuff like that. Yeah,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: and being remote and out in the wilderness. I think

• 14:52
  Speaker 1: clue questions, which are all hints to one final question.

• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Question one what television show now in its second season?
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Premiered in January of twenty twenty three on AMC and
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: stars Harry Hamlin and Alexandra the Dario.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Question two. Gary Marshall followed up his directing of the
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: hit film Pretty Woman with the generally favorably viewed but
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: not a successful Frankie and Johnny, But missed the mark
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: after that, with which nineteen ninety three Bomb starring Dan
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: Aykroyd and Rosie O'Donnell.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Question three, Oprah Winfrey considered canceling an upcoming appearance of
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Tom Cruise on her show after she walked out of
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: an advanced screening of which nineteen ninety four film due
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: to the amount of blood shown?
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: And Big Bang question again, the category is literature, which
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: prolific author was born in nineteen forty one with the
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: given name Howard Alan Francis O'Brien, And.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Now the answer is to the Big Bang round? Question one?
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: What television show is in its second season on AMC
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Mayfair Witches?
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Question two? Gary Marshall followed up directing Pretty Woman and
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: Frankie and Johnny with what nineteen ninety three bombs starring
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Dan Aykroyd and Rosie O'Donnell, Exit to Eden? Never heard
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: of it, saw it after it came out, It was
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: not good.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: Question three. Oprah Winfrey considered canceling an upcoming appearance of
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Tom Cruise due to what bloody movie? Interview with the Vampire, and.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: Finally the Big Bang question, which prolific author was born
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: in nineteen forty one with the given name Howard Alan
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Francis O'Brien. The author of Exit to Eden, The Mayfair
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Witches series and interview with the vampire Anne Rice.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Wow, that's interesting.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: So this one was kind of wild to me because
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: you know, you never hear about Howard Alan Francis being
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: part of her name. Those were her given names because
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: I think her grandmother wanted the name to be named
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: after the father for some reason, because she was a
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: little kookie. And apparently when Anne Rice got to Catholic school,
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: started going to school and the nun was like, what's
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: your name? She said Anne because she thought it was
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: pretty and you know, didn't want to be known as
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Howard Allen Fair and that just you know, that was
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: her name from then on. So that was also the
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: name she wrote under.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: It's a lot of a lot of boys' names. And
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: it's also interesting that she was born so early. When
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I think of Anne Rice, like, I know, she's passed away,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: but I think of her as being more contemporary. Yeah,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: so the fact that it was.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: In the nineties pretty much, yeah, which is just like
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: ten years ago.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: So yeah, right, So yeah, it's just interesting that she
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: was born in nineteen forty one.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: And a little note on Exit to Eden. I think
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: that was an erotic novel that she had written and
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: then when she sold the rights for it to be
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: made into a film, they took it and made it
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: into a buddy cop comedy and it just didn't work
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: because it was it was this weird like dichotomy of
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: the buddy cop with like BDSM eroticism and it just
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: didn't go together.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: That well, yeah, they should try again, try again. Okay,
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: she didn't love Tom Cruise in the.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Movie, right, Yeah, that's a fun story. I guess when
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: she heard that Tom Cruise was cast an interview with
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: the Vampire, she absolutely just kind of flipped out and
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: was like, that's the worst thing to happen. She refused
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: to watch it and promote it. But then after it
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: had come out and it was received well and stuff,
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: someone sent her a copy of it and was like,
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: just watch it, you know, watch it at home, just
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: try it. And she watched it and she was so
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: impressed by Tom Cruise's performance that she actually wrote him
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: a letter apologizing to him, and then she recorded a
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: two minute video where she encouraged people to see the
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: movie and how good of an adaptation it was and everything.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: And I read that they started including that on the
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: movies that were sold in the beginning they would play
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: that two minute clip before the movie. So, yeah, it's
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: funny how Interview with the Vampire got made because a
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: lot of casting came from people who either were third
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: or fourth choices or beat out several other good actors
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: or had the parts thrust upon him. So Christian Slater
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: played the character Daniel Molloy because River Phoenix had died
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: right after being cast as it as that part. And
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: Rice originally wanted Tom Hanks to play the stat after
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: seeing him in Philadelphia, but he turned it down to
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: play Forrest Gump, and I think that worked out for
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: both parties.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with that.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: And I guess after that Daniel day Lewis was given
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: the part, but then he dropped out and they went
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: after Johnny Depp and he said no, and then they
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: got Tom Cruise and for the part of the Little Girl,
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Claudia Chris Stina ricci Ley Sobieski, Julia Styles, Evan rachel Wood,
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: and I think Natalie Portman aal auditioned, but it went
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: to Kirsten Dunst.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: She did a good job.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: And the one funny thing is that I guess Tom
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: Cruise hated working with Brad Pitt because of brad Pitt's
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: hygiene and that brad Pitt also refused to wear deodorant,
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: and to this day they've they've not made a movie
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: together since.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: I don't really blame Tom Cruise on this one. I
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: think I think that's fair.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean when you're in close proximity and
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: you're working long hours all day, especially in makeup and
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: costumes like m h. So again, zoom Trivia this Saturday
