Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: And it's Kevy and Christine along with producer Kristin here
- 0:06Speaker 1: at Light FM, and our dear friend Harry Medved of
- 0:09Speaker 1: the Cinema Foundation joins us live from Hollywood. Hi, Harry,
- 0:14Speaker 1: how are you hey?
- 0:15Speaker 2: Christine, good to talk to you guys.
- 0:17Speaker 1: You too, Mary. So you've always come to tell us
- 0:20Speaker 1: what's new in the theaters, and of course we are
- 0:23Speaker 1: so looking forward to and opening today. Springsteen delivered me
- 0:27Speaker 1: from nowhere.
- 0:28Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I'm so happy to talk about it because
- 0:30Speaker 2: we saw the film in an early cut at the
- 0:33Speaker 2: Theater Owners Convention through Cinema United and Disney and twentieth
- 0:37Speaker 2: Century Fox nice enough to show the film to us.
- 0:40Speaker 2: It's an amazing performance that Jeremy Ellen White turns in
- 0:44Speaker 2: of course, from the Bear. He doesn't look exactly like Springsteen,
- 0:48Speaker 2: but he channels Springsteen. He really gets his whole persona
- 0:51Speaker 2: and character. And I'm someone where I have to admit
- 0:54Speaker 2: to you guys, I remember seeing Springsteen and Madison Square
- 0:57Speaker 2: Garden in nineteen eighty. I went with the crew from
- 1:00Speaker 2: that movie No Nukes that he was in. Oh you
- 1:02Speaker 2: were too then, right, So here's all yes, and so
- 1:06Speaker 2: it kind of captures that period of time where he
- 1:08Speaker 2: was already pretty famous, but he was on the cusp
- 1:10Speaker 2: of his international stardom and he was going through a
- 1:13Speaker 2: tough time. He had, you know, finished The River, and
- 1:15Speaker 2: he was working on this album, Nebraska, which was an
- 1:18Speaker 2: acoustic album, and he wanted that sound. So his producer,
- 1:22Speaker 2: John Landa, who's played by Jeremy Strong, who's also terrific
- 1:25Speaker 2: in the film, was fighting for Springsteen to kind of
- 1:27Speaker 2: keep that sound of all this beautiful music that was
- 1:31Speaker 2: recorded at Springsteen's home. And it's an amazing story. I
- 1:35Speaker 2: will tell you that it's this is not a joyful,
- 1:39Speaker 2: you know, fun filled movie. I think when critic Randy
- 1:41Speaker 2: Myers pointed out that it is a powerful film is
- 1:45Speaker 2: full of quiet beauty, and it shows it's compassionate about
- 1:50Speaker 2: how creativity and sometimes oppression kind of go hand in hand.
- 1:53Speaker 2: But I'll tell you what it really worked for me
- 1:54Speaker 2: is all the New Jersey stuff. It's really interesting and
- 1:57Speaker 2: it's very authentic. I mean, New Jersey is having a
- 2:00Speaker 2: heck of a year on film. I mean it's a
- 2:02Speaker 2: heck of a few years. They had West Side Story
- 2:04Speaker 2: a few years back, a Complete Unknown last year, and
- 2:07Speaker 2: now this one, and then they got the Housemaid coming out,
- 2:10Speaker 2: and so it's a good time to be filming movies
- 2:12Speaker 2: in New Jersey.
- 2:13Speaker 1: New Jerseys where it's at always has been if we
- 2:15Speaker 1: know that.
- 2:18Speaker 2: Well, also he gets to see you know. Of course
- 2:20Speaker 2: they had to film in the real Aspberry Park. They
- 2:22Speaker 2: had to phone at Stone Pony, the carousel, the boardwalk,
- 2:25Speaker 2: and so you see that all the films also sit
- 2:27Speaker 2: with seeing on the big screen is good fortune with
- 2:29Speaker 2: Aziz on Sorry who directed the movie, and Seth Rogan,
- 2:33Speaker 2: Keiky Palmer, Sandra and Keanu Reeves as an angel who
- 2:37Speaker 2: is in charge of stopping people from texting and driving.
- 2:40Speaker 2: What a beautiful act. I thought a very funny, raunchy
- 2:45Speaker 2: R rated movie. But we need more heavenly comedies like this.
- 2:48Speaker 2: In fact, Elizabeth Olsen has one coming out that we
- 2:51Speaker 2: also saw called Eternity, where she has to choose in
- 2:54Speaker 2: the afterlife, she has to choose between her first and
- 2:56Speaker 2: second husbands played by Miles Teller and Colin Turner. Thank you, Harry,
- 3:00Speaker 2: appreciate it man. It sounds like a good weekend at
- 3:02Speaker 2: the movie guys.
- 3:03Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 3:03Speaker 2: How fun and go see Springs being delivering from nowhere.
- 3:06Speaker 2: I think you'll enjoy it.
- 3:07Speaker 1: We absolutely will now playing only in theaters. Hurry Bedved.
- 3:11Speaker 1: Thank you so much. Always a pleasure to talk with you.
- 3:13Speaker 2: Thank you so much.
