• 0:38
  Speaker 1: so much for your time. I'm Megan from Girls Gone Hallmark.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: I just want to jump right in Marcus. Your character
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Trey whereas a walkman this entire movie, and I have
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: a couple questions. First of all, did it actually work?
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: You know what it did?
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: It was like a little old relative pulled them out
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: of the box at the top of the shoot, I
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: think open. At one point there was like a really
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: like janky, old like plastic clip on the back that
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: sort of attached it to my belt and eventually it
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: just kind of snapped off and then we had to
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: like taping on, but it was a functioning thing. I
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: had a little tape in there, and I think we
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: would play with it between takes and see what you
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: get on it.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: And your character is a real analog dude. He's not
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: into the digitize everything kind of life. Can you relate
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: to that? Stick with what works kind of attitude?
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: First of all, I love the speed at which you're
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: speaking to take advantage of these like seven minutes in
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: heaven that we have, Like it's the figures so fast.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: So I'm like, that's the right way to do it.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: What was the question? Now that I've totally thrown it off, but.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: I can you relate to Trey's analog style or are you.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: More I yeah, I don't. I don't know. I like
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: to write things down and then cross them off, like
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: there's like a list app Then that doesn't really work
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: for me, So I don't know. I'm a bit of
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: a split. I'm a millennial. I'm kind of like bridge
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: the gap between you know, lot of times I only.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Watch movies on VHS player, VHS player and VHS movies.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: I love that my husband would relate to that. We're
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: still a DVD family.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: I just got a VHS player, VHS, DVD player t
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: O combo both. Yeah. Now I'm like love, you know,
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: I have to look in and getting DVDs.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Vanessa, your character Cassidy learns to ski in one lesson,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: and as a person who did learn to ski as
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: an adult and it did not go as smoothly as
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: it did for Cassidy, I need to know what that
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: experience was like for you. Are you an experienced skier?
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: I do.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: I just want to say thank you for noticing that
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Cassidy just does things very quickly. I did. I have
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: not yet seen the movie, but I did see the
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: clip of her untangling the Christmas lights. Okay, lack. How
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: quickly she's does stuff. There's like a little, a little
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: magical essence to her that I didn't really expect as
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: I was acting it out. And I used to snowboard,
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: and I snowboarded a lot, and so skiing was new
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: for me. And I'm trying to think, oh, I know,
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: it was just they put me on skis. But how
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: did we do that? Marcus, I was on skis and
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: I just did it. I don't know.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: We shout this movie so long ago. Now we're both
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: like hard to remember the details a year.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: Was it like Vanessa ski you are like Cassidy really quick?
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: I remember we were both on skis. We only had
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: to ski like twenty feet in that one thing. We
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: both had doubles for like bigger stuff. But she was
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: on the streets and she did have to sort of
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: like splide into this this little crash that we did,
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: and she did it beautifully. Well.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Something that you did not have doubles for was the
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: tubing scene. And I had to tell you, since I
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: have seen the movie it's so fun to watch, I
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: need to know what it was like filming that And
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: did you get to do a million takes? Because one
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: of the advantages of filming this movie in what looked
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: like actual winter instead of July is you get to
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: do some real snow stuff.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Exactly. We're so lucky to have real snow. That would
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: have been a nightmare if that was just produced by
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: the snow. We had so much fun. We were just
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: talking about it. Marcus and I just like going up
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: and down and up and down, and it was kind
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: of old school, well old school for me when I
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: used to film things in Canada where you had just
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: a very limited crew and just limited time. And so
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: we just did it over and over again, and I
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: think it kind of inspired both Marcus and I. There
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: were some kind of childhood nostalgia to tubing down the
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: hill that we tapped into, and we were having so
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: much fun. It was exhausting. But I'm glad to hear
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: that you loved it. I'm so excited to see it
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: because it was really it was fun to film.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the fun translates. Are there any moments from the
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: movie that got cut? Well, I guess you don't know that.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: But.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Maybe I have a moment that I Oh, good, I
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: want to hear it. I had so, mind you, I
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: was very hormonally. I was pregnant at the time we filmed,
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: so my hormones were raging. And I remember we didn't
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: have time to film this one scene where my character
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: sees Marcus and his family putting the Christmas tree together
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: with the snow shoes, and she decides that she doesn't
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: belong in this, in this reality, in this life. And
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: she makes that decision and she leaves and she's really
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: upset about it, and cut to the next scene where
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: she's like basically crying to him. And we didn't get
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: to film it. And I remember being so upset that
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: that was being cut, and I remember going to Marcus
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: and he's like, it's okay, It's it's.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Gonna be okay, and I'm like, Vanessa is very big
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: on the script. In the script, Vanessa expects to shoot it.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: She's a pro Marcas, what are we doing? Sure?
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: So I don't like to change of plan either.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: I'm not apparently I thought your whole character through and
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: you know exactly what you know, what arc you're you're
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: working on. It was. It was really really upsetting, and
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: I do think I have to apologize to the director
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: because I think my hormones were not helping my rage.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: I think it's really well.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Cassidy comes off so full of fun life, so you
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: don't come off as overly horrible.
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: That part I just kept for Marcus. Yeah, just get
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: over so bad.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: One last question to wrap up. We have a segment
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: on our podcast called did you See That? And I'm wondering,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: is there a moment in the movie that you think
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: viewers might miss or that you want them to pay
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: particularly close attention to.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: When that's up again, it's like we haven't seen it,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: so it's a little tricky. The tubing is cute, but
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: you know what, Vanessa slipped down some stairs in that
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: one particular state and try the spot where that might
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: have been in she it was in the whole kerfuffle
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: because she was obviously early stages edmentton, so it was
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: very concerning to watch. And but Matt will not be
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: in the film, but there was a scene when it happened,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: and somebody you can kind of figure when.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: Figure out when that happened when you all down the stairs.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: This interview, well, thank you so much for your time.
