The

Devil's
2:52
Advocate.

This

is
2:53
the
2:53
podcast
2:54
that's
2:54
all
2:54
about
2:54
the
2:54
history
2:54
and
2:55
legacy
2:55
of
2:55
movies
2:56
you
2:56
know,
2:56
and
2:56
movies
2:57
you
2:57
don't.
2:58
That's
2:58
the
2:58
surprise
2:59
you
2:59
don't
2:59
see
3:00
coming.
3:01
Because
3:01
this
3:01
is
3:02
a
3:02
podcast.
3:02
You
3:03
can't
3:03
see
3:03
it,
3:03
you
3:04
hear
3:04
it.
3:04
Totally
3:05
different.
3:06
Welcome
3:07
to
3:07
Verbal
3:07
Diorama.
3:08

you're

a

3:08

3:09
whether

a

regular
3:10
returning
3:10

3:11
if

3:11
thank
3:12
you
3:12
for
3:12
coming
3:12

3:14
And
3:14
if
3:14
you're
3:14
a
3:14
brand
3:15
new
3:15
listener,
3:15
thank
3:16
you
3:16
for

finding
3:16
this
3:16
podcast.
3:17
But
3:17
as
3:18
always,
3:18
I'm
3:18
hugely
3:19
grateful
3:19
to
3:19
everyone
3:20
who
3:20
takes
3:20
the
3:21
time
3:21
to
3:21
listen
3:21
to
3:21
this
3:21
podcast.
3:22
There
3:22
are
3:23
a
3:23
lot
3:23
of
3:23
movie
3:23
podcasts
3:24
out
3:24
there
3:24
and
3:24
a
3:24
lot
3:25
of
3:25
them
3:25
vying
3:25
for
3:25
your
3:26
ears
3:26
and
3:26
for
3:26
your
3:26
attention.
3:27
And
3:28
I'm
3:28
so
3:28
grateful
3:28
that
3:29
you
3:29
are
3:29
here
3:30
listening
3:30
to
3:30
Verbal
3:31
Diorama
3:32
for
3:32
the
3:32
history
3:32
and
3:33
legacy
3:33
of
3:34
the
3:34
Devil's
3:34
Advocate.
3:35
Thank
3:36
you
3:36
for
3:36
your
3:37
continued
3:37
support
3:37
of
3:37
this
3:38
podcast.
3:38
It
3:38
genuinely
3:39
means
3:39
so
3:40
much
3:40
to.
3:41
And
3:41
the
3:41
Devil's
3:41
Advocate
3:42
is
3:42
a
3:42
movie
3:43
that
3:43
I've
3:43
wanted
3:43
to
3:43
cover
3:44
for
3:44
a
3:44
long
3:44
time.
3:45
And
3:46
considering
3:46
the
3:46
time
3:47
of
3:47
year
3:47
we're
3:47
starting
3:48
to
3:48
get
3:48
into
3:48
spooky
3:49
season,
3:50
to
3:50
do
3:50
a
3:50
Keanu
3:51
movie
3:51
is
3:51
always
3:51
a
3:52
special
3:52
treat
3:52
on
3:52
this
3:53
podcast.
3:53
And
3:54
this,
3:54
in
3:55
my
3:55
opinion,
3:56
is
3:56
one
3:57
of
3:57
his
3:57
best
3:57
roles.
3:58
Not
3:58
many
3:59
can
3:59
hold
3:59
their
4:00
own
4:00
against
4:01
Al
4:01
Pacino,
4:02
but
4:02
I
4:02
think
4:02
Keanu
4:03
gives
4:03
it
4:03
a
4:03
good
4:04
shot
4:04
here.
4:04
And
4:05
being
4:05
honest,
4:06
any
4:06
actor
4:07
in
4:07
Hollywood
4:07
would
4:08
give
4:08
anything
4:09
to
4:09
work
4:09
with
4:09
a
4:10
legend
4:10
like
4:10
Pacino.
4:11
Anything.
4:13
Maybe
4:14
even
4:14
sell
4:15
their
4:15
soul
4:15
for
4:16
it.
4:17
Not
4:17
Keanu,
4:18
thankfully.
4:18
But
4:18
vanity
4:19
is
4:19
Hollywood's
4:20
biggest
4:20
sin.
4:21
And
4:21
this
4:21
movie
4:22
asks
4:22
us
4:23
a
4:23
simple
4:23
question.
4:24
What
4:24
would
4:25
you
4:25
do
4:25
to
4:26
succeed?
4:27
And
4:27
like
4:28
most
4:28
things
4:28
with
4:28
this
4:29
podcast,
4:30
the
4:30
devil's
4:31
in
4:31
the
4:31
details.
4:32
Here's
4:32
the
4:32
trailer
4:33
for
4:33
the
4:33
Devil's
4:34
Advocate.
6:44
Kevin
6:45
Lomax,
6:45
a
6:46
talented
6:46
defense
6:46
attorney
6:47
from
6:47
Florida
6:47
with
6:48
an
6:48
undefeated
6:48
record
6:49
is
6:49
recruited
6:50
by
6:50
a
6:50
prestigious
6:51
New
6:51
York
6:51
law
6:52
firm
6:52
after
6:52
successfully
6:53
defending
6:53
a
6:54
clearly
6:54
guilty
6:55
client.
6:55
As
6:56
Kevin
6:56
and
6:56
his
6:57
wife
6:57
Marianne
6:58
settle
6:58
into
6:58
their
6:59
luxurious
6:59
new
6:59
life,
7:00
Marianne
7:01
begins
7:01
experiencing
7:02
disturbing
7:03
visions
7:03
and
7:03
psychological
7:04
deterioration
7:05
while
7:06
Kevin
7:06
becomes
7:07
increasingly
7:07
obsessed
7:08
with
7:08
his
7:08
work
7:09
and
7:09
the
7:09
intoxicating
7:10
power
7:11
it
7:11
brings.
7:12
Kevin
7:12
gradually
7:13
discovers
7:13
that
7:13
not
7:14
only
7:14
is
7:14
his
7:14
charismatic
7:15
boss
7:16
John
7:16
Milton
7:16
actually
7:17
Satan,
7:18
but
7:18
also
7:19
his
7:19
father
7:20
and
7:20
daddy
7:20
dearest
7:21
has
7:21
grand
7:22
designs
7:22
for
7:22
Kevin
7:23
to
7:23
father
7:23
the
7:24
Antichrist.

has
7:58
a
7:58
screenplay
7:59
by
7:59
Jonathan
7:59
Lemkin
8:00
and
8:00
Tony
8:00
Gilroy,

was

and
8:04
based
8:04
on
8:05
the
8:05
Devil's
8:05
Advocate
8:06
by
8:06
Andrew
8:07
NEIDERMAN.
8:08
Now
8:08
in
8:08
1990,
8:09
Andrew
8:09
Niederman's
8:10
novel
8:10
the
8:11
Devil's
8:11
Advocate
8:11
was
8:12
published.
8:12
The
8:13
story
8:13
of
8:13
a
8:13
talented
8:14
lawyer,
8:14
Kevin
8:14
Taylor,
8:15
who
8:15
slowly
8:16
becomes
8:16
seduced
8:16
by
8:17
power
8:17
and
8:17
corruption
8:18
at
8:18
a
8:18
high
8:19
end
8:19
New
8:19
York
8:19
law
8:20
firm
8:20
ran
8:20
by
8:21
John
8:21
Milton,
8:22
who
8:22
assigns
8:22
him
8:23
a
8:23
high
8:23
profile
8:23
case
8:24
and
8:24
wouldn't
8:24
you
8:24
believe
8:25
it,
8:25
but
8:25
his
8:25
new
8:25
boss
8:26
turns
8:26
out
8:26
to
8:26
be
8:27
the
8:27
Devil.
8:28
The
8:28
movie
8:28
is
8:29
only
8:29
very
8:29
loosely
8:30
based
8:30
on
8:30
the
8:30
basic
8:31
plot
8:31
of
8:31
the
8:31
book.
8:32
Much
8:32
has
8:32
changed,
8:33
including
8:34
character
8:34
names.
8:35
Kevin
8:35
Taylor
8:36
becomes
8:36
Kevin
8:36
Lomax,
8:37
his
8:37
wife
8:38
Miriam
8:38
becomes
8:39
Mary
8:39
Ann.
8:39
And
8:40
even
8:40
her
8:40
storyline
8:41
differs
8:41
with
8:41
Miriam
8:42
in
8:42
the
8:42
book,
8:43
thriving
8:43
alongside
8:44
her
8:44
husband's
8:45
descent
8:45
into
8:45
craziness
8:46
and
8:47
enraptured
8:47
by
8:48
their
8:48
new
8:48
life,
8:48
succumbing
8:49
to
8:49
all
8:49
the
8:50
temptations
8:50
of
8:51
this
8:51
new
8:51
life
8:52
of
8:52
luxury.
8:53
The
8:54
ending
8:54
is
8:54
also
8:55
drastically
8:55
different,
8:56
but
8:57
the
8:57
idea
8:57
of
8:58
Satan
8:58
practicing
8:58
law,
8:59
depending
9:00
on
9:00
your
9:00
views
9:00
of
9:00
the
9:00
American
9:01
judicial
9:01
system,
9:02
there
9:03
is
9:03
an
9:03
argument
9:03
for
9:03
it.
9:04
And
9:04
if
9:04
you
9:04
recognize
9:05
the
9:05
name
9:05
John
9:06
Milton,
9:06
I
9:07
wouldn't
9:07
be
9:07
too
9:07
surprised.
9:08
John
9:09
Milton
9:09
was
9:09
an
9:09
English
9:10
poet
9:10
whose
9:10
epic
9:10
poem
9:11
Paradise
9:11
Lost
9:12
was
9:12
the
9:12
biblical
9:13
story
9:13
of
9:13
the
9:14
fall
9:14
of
9:14
man,
9:14
the
9:15
temptation
9:15
of
9:15
Adam
9:16
and
9:16
Eve
9:16
by
9:16
the
9:16
fallen
9:17
angel
9:17
Satan
9:18
and
9:18
their
9:18
expulsion
9:19
from
9:19
The
9:19
Garden
9:20
of
9:20
Eden,
9:20
and
9:21
that
9:21
was
9:21
first
9:21
published
9:22
in
9:22
1667.
9:24
Milton,
9:24
Satan
9:25
in
9:25
Paradise
9:26
Lost.
9:26
Milton
9:26
is
9:26
charismatic,
9:27
articulate
9:28
and
9:29
presents
9:29
compelling
9:30
arguments
9:30
for
9:30
his
9:30
worldview.
9:31
He
9:32
famously
9:32
declares,
9:33
better
9:33
to
9:33
reign
9:34
in
9:34
hell
9:34
than
9:35
serve
9:35
in
9:35
heaven,
9:36
which
9:36
aligns
9:36
with
9:36
the
9:37
character's
9:37
philosophy
9:38
of
9:38
self
9:38
empowerment
9:39
and
9:39
rebellion
9:40
against
9:40
divine
9:40
authority.
9:41
The
9:42
film's
9:42
version
9:43
of
9:43
Satan,
9:43
like
9:44
Milton's,
9:44
doesn't
9:45
appear
9:45
as
9:45
a
9:45
traditional
9:46
Horde
9:46
demon,
9:47
but
9:47
as
9:48
a
9:48
sophisticated,
9:49
almost
9:49
sympathetic
9:50
figure
9:50
who
9:51
believes
9:51
he's
9:52
liberating
9:52
humanity
9:53
from
9:53
God's
9:54
tyranny.
9:55
But
9:55
also,
9:55
speaking
9:56
of
9:56
the
9:56
American
9:56
judicial
9:57
system,
9:58
there's
9:58
a
9:58
strong
9:58
argument
9:59
for
9:59
a
9:59
certain
10:00
high
10:00
profile
10:01
celebrity
10:01
murder
10:02
trial
10:02
and
10:03
this
10:03
controversial
10:03
outcome
10:04
being
10:04
the
10:05
key
10:05
reason
10:05
this
10:06
movie
10:06
got
10:06
made.
10:07
And
10:07
I'm
10:07
not
10:07
saying
10:08
his
10:08
defense
10:08
lawyers
10:09
sold
10:09
their
10:09
souls
10:10
to
10:10
the
10:10
devil
10:10
to
10:10
get
10:10
his
10:11
not
10:11
guilty
10:11
verdict,
10:12
but
10:12
what
10:12
they
10:13
did
10:13
was
10:13
not
10:13
necessarily
10:14
say
10:14
O.J.
10:15
Simpson
10:15
was
10:15
innocent,
10:16
but
10:16
they
10:17
persuaded
10:17
the
10:17
jury
10:17
there
10:18
was
10:18
a
10:18
reasonable
10:18
doubt
10:19
concerning
10:20
the
10:20
evidence
10:21
and
10:21
the
10:21
NAPD's
10:22
conduct
10:22
in
10:22
the
10:22
case,
10:23
which
10:23
ultimately
10:24
led
10:24
to
10:24
Simpson's
10:25
acquittal.
10:26
And
10:26
this
10:27
is
10:27
because
10:27
the
10:27
responsibility
10:28
of
10:28
a
10:28
legal
10:29
defence
10:29
team
10:29
isn't
10:29
to
10:30
prove
10:30
innocence
10:30
or
10:31
secure
10:31
an
10:31
acquittal,
10:32
but
10:32
to
10:33
question
10:33
the
10:33
evidence
10:34
brought
10:34
by
10:34
the
10:34
prosecution
10:35
in
10:35
the
10:35
case,
10:36
to
10:36
hold
10:36
it
10:36
to
10:36
legal
10:37
scrutiny
10:37
and
10:38
to
10:38
protect
10:38
the
10:38
rights
10:39
of
10:39
their
10:39
client
10:40
to
10:40
a
10:40
fair
10:40
and
10:41
unbiased
10:41
trial.
10:42
So
10:42
while
10:43
we
10:43
might
10:43
question
10:44
how
10:44
a
10:44
defence
10:44
attorney
10:45
can
10:45
sleep
10:45
at
10:46
night
10:46
when
10:47
they
10:47
know
10:47
their
10:47
client
10:47
is
10:48
guilty,
10:49
they
10:49
sleep
10:49
at
10:49
night
10:50
knowing
10:50
the
10:50
state,
10:51
as
10:51
this
10:52
is
10:52
specifically
10:52
in
10:52
the
10:53
case
10:53
of
10:53
the
10:53
US
10:53
court
10:54
system
10:54
has
10:55
played
10:55
by
10:55
the
10:55
rules,
10:56
because
10:57
even
10:57
the
10:57
most
10:57
despicable
10:58
of
10:58
criminals
10:59
deserves
11:00
a
11:00
fair
11:00
trial.
11:01
And
11:01
a
11:02
huge
11:02
thanks
11:02
to
11:02
the
11:03
Reddit
11:03
Ask
11:03
Lawyers
11:04
thread
11:04
for
11:04
some
11:04
really
11:05
valuable
11:05
information
11:06
on
11:06
the
11:06
US
11:06
legal
11:07
system.
11:08
But
11:08
really
11:08
it's
11:09
the
11:09
same
11:09
in
11:09
most
11:09
countries.
11:10
You
11:10
are
11:10
legally
11:11
entitled
11:11
to
11:11
a
11:11
lawyer,
11:12
and
11:12
that
11:12
lawyer
11:13
is
11:13
there
11:13
to
11:13
ensure
11:14
fair
11:14
treatment.
11:15
And
11:15
not
11:15
every
11:16
lawyer
11:16
has
11:16
sold
11:17
their
11:17
soul
11:17
to
11:17
the
11:17
devil.
11:19
While
11:19
Paradise
11:19
Lost
11:20
is
11:20
seen
11:20
as
11:20
an
11:20
influence
11:21
to
11:21
the
11:21
story,
11:22
the
11:22
legend
11:22
of
11:23
Faust,
11:23
notably
11:24
Johann
11:25
Wolfgang
11:25
von
11:25
Goethe's,
11:26
is
11:26
the
11:27
primary
11:27
source.
11:28
Faust
11:28
is
11:29
a
11:29
classic
11:29
German
11:29
legend
11:30
based
11:30
on
11:30
the
11:30
historical
11:31
Johann
11:32
Georg
11:32
Faust,
11:33
an
11:33
alchemist,
11:34
astrologer
11:34
and
11:34
magician
11:35
of
11:35
the
11:35
German
11:35
Renaissance.
11:36
Kevin
11:37
Lomax
11:37
embodies
11:38
the
11:38
classic
11:39
Faustian
11:39
bargain,
11:40
trading
11:41
his
11:41
soul
11:41
for
11:41
worldly
11:42
success,
11:43
knowledge
11:43
and
11:43
power.
11:44
Like
11:44
Faust,
11:45
he's
11:45
a
11:45
brilliant
11:46
man
11:46
whose
11:46
ambition
11:47
leads
11:47
him
11:47
to
11:48
make
11:48
a
11:48
deal
11:48
with
11:48
the
11:48
devil.
11:49
The
11:49
film
11:50
explores
11:50
whether
11:50
someone
11:51
can
11:51
be
11:51
redeemed
11:52
after
11:52
such
11:52
a
11:52
bargain.
11:53
And
11:53
Kevin's
11:54
growing
11:54
awareness
11:55
of
11:55
what
11:55
he
11:55
sacrificed
11:56
mirrors
11:57
Faust's
11:57
eventual
11:58
recognition
11:58
of
11:59
his
11:59
moral
11:59
predicament.
12:00
It
12:01
explores
12:01
the
12:01
seductive
12:02
nature
12:02
of
12:02
evil
12:02
and
12:03
questions
12:03
whether
12:03
humans
12:04
are
12:04
truly
12:05
free
12:05
to
12:05
choose
12:06
between
12:06
good
12:06
and
12:07
evil.
12:07
When
12:07
temptation
12:08
is
12:08
presented
12:09
so
12:09
appealingly,
12:11
it
12:11
isn't
12:11
surprising
12:11
that
12:11
Andre
12:12
Niederman
12:12
would
12:13
actively
12:13
approach
12:13
studios
12:14
after
12:15
his
12:15
book's
12:15
publication
12:16
to
12:16
pitch
12:17
it
12:17
to
12:17
them
12:17
for
12:17
a
12:17
film
12:18
adaptation.
12:19
The
12:19
late
12:19
Joel
12:20
Schumacher
12:20
teamed
12:21
with
12:21
producer
12:21
Arnold
12:22
Copleson
12:23
on
12:23
1993's
12:24
Falling
12:24
down,
12:25
and
12:25
straight
12:25
after
12:26
that
12:26
was
12:27
pipped
12:27
to
12:27
direct
12:27
an
12:28
adaptation
12:28
of
12:29
the
12:29
Devil's
12:29
Advocate
12:30
with
12:30
a
12:30
screenplay
12:31
by
12:31
Lawrence
12:32
Cohen.
12:32
It
12:33
got
12:33
so
12:33
far
12:33
into
12:33
production
12:34
that
12:34
Brad
12:34
Pitt
12:35
was
12:35
planning
12:35
on
12:35
being
12:36
cast
12:36
in
12:37
the
12:37
Kevin
12:37
Lomax
12:37
role.
12:38
Sets
12:39
were
12:39
designed,
12:39
and
12:40
it
12:40
would
12:40
have
12:40
included
12:40
scenes
12:41
of
12:41
Pitt's
12:41
character
12:42
being
12:42
chased
12:42
through
12:43
the
12:43
different
12:43
levels
12:44
of
12:44
New
12:44
York
12:44
subway
12:45
system,
12:45
with
12:46
each
12:46
level
12:46
being
12:46
a
12:47
level
12:47
of
12:47
hell
12:47
in
12:47
Dante's
12:48
Inferno.
12:49
Both
12:49
Schumacher
12:50
and
12:50
Pitt
12:50
would
12:51
end
12:51
up
12:51
walking
12:51
away
12:51
when
12:52
the
12:52
script
12:53
wasn't
12:53
the
12:53
best
12:53
and
12:54
a
12:54
suitable
12:54
actor
12:55
couldn't
12:55
be
12:55
found
12:56
to
12:56
play
12:56
the
12:56
devil.
12:58
And
12:58
then
12:59
the
12:59
O.J.
13:00
Simpson
13:00
trial
13:00
gripped
13:01
the
13:01
nation,
13:01
and
13:01
courtroom
13:02
dramas
13:03
became
13:03
a
13:03
thing
13:03
in
13:03
the
13:04
mid-90s,
13:05
with
13:05
Hollywood
13:05
desperate
13:06
to
13:06
cash
13:06
in
13:06
on
13:07
the
13:07
nation's
13:07
obsession
13:08
with
13:08
the
13:08
judicial
13:09
system,
13:10
Warner
13:10
Bros.
13:11
Hired
13:11
Taylor
13:11
Hackford
13:12
to
13:12
give
13:12
the
13:12
Devil's
13:13
Advocate
13:13
another
13:14
go,
13:14
with
13:14
Tony
13:15
Gilroy
13:15
leading
13:16
a
13:16
script
13:16
rewrite
13:17
heavily
13:18
inspired
13:18
by
13:18
Faust,
13:19
but
13:19
having
13:19
the
13:20
devil
13:20
specifically
13:21
not
13:21
involved
13:21
in
13:22
any
13:22
of
13:22
the
13:22
events.
13:23
He
13:23
could
13:23
inspire
13:24
people
13:24
to
13:25
do
13:25
things,
13:25
but
13:25
not
13:26
force
13:26
anyone.
13:27
It
13:27
had
13:27
to
13:27
be
13:28
of
13:28
a
13:28
person's
13:28
free
13:29
will.
13:29
Hackford
13:30
was
13:30
a
13:30
huge
13:31
fan
13:31
of
13:31
method
13:31
acting,
13:32
and
13:32
so
13:32
all
13:33
of
13:33
his
13:33
actors
13:33
were
13:33
encouraged
13:34
to
13:34
stay
13:34
in
13:35
character
13:35
on
13:36
and
13:36
off
13:36
camera.
13:37
And
13:38
obviously,
13:38
several
13:38
things
13:39
were
13:39
changed
13:39
in
13:40
the
13:40
film
13:40
adaptation,
13:41
including
13:42
the
13:42
fact
13:42
that
13:42
in
13:43
the
13:43
book,
13:43
Lomax
13:44
and
13:44
Milton
13:44
aren't
13:45
related.
13:45
But
13:46
the
13:46
movie
13:46
added
13:46
a
13:47
plot
13:47
element
13:47
for
13:47
Milton
13:48
to
13:48
be
13:48
revealed
13:49
as
13:49
both
13:49
the
13:49
devil
13:50
and
13:50
Kevin's
13:51
father,
13:52
with
13:52
Kevin
13:52
required
13:53
to
13:53
consummate
13:54
his
13:54
attraction
13:54
to
13:55
Christabella,
13:56
the
13:56
literal
13:57
beautiful
13:57
Christmas,
13:58
and
13:58
also
13:58
his
13:59
half
13:59
sister
14:00
in
14:00
order
14:00
to
14:00
create
14:01
the
14:01
Antichrist
14:02
with
14:02
Rosemary's
14:03
Baby
14:03
and
14:03
the
14:03
Omen
14:04
cited
14:05
as
14:05
inspiration.
14:07
Meanwhile,
14:08
in
14:08
1994,
14:09
Keanu
14:09
Reeves
14:10
starred
14:10
in
14:10
Speed,
14:11
still
14:12
one
14:12
of
14:12
the
14:12
best
14:12
action
14:13
movies
14:13
full
14:13
stop
14:14
and
14:14
a
14:14
huge
14:14
hit
14:15
for
14:15
fox,
14:15
making
14:16
back
14:16
10
14:16
times
14:17
its
14:17
budget.
14:18
After
14:18
its
14:19
first
14:19
week
14:19
in
14:19
cinemas,
14:20
Fox
14:21
officially
14:21
announced
14:21
a
14:22
sequel,
14:22
and
14:22
director
14:23
Jan
14:23

14:24
was
14:24
contractually
14:25
obliged
14:25
to
14:25
direct
14:25
it.
14:26
Its
14:26
stars,
14:27
Keanu
14:28
and
14:28
Sandra
14:29
Bullock,
14:29
were
14:29
not
14:30
contractually
14:30
obligated
14:31
to
14:31
return.
14:32
Bullock
14:33
was
14:33
persuaded
14:34
to
14:34
return
14:34
with
14:35
a
14:35
reported
14:35
$11
14:36
million
14:36
salary
14:37
and
14:37
agreed
14:38
financial
14:38
backing
14:39
for
14:39
her
14:39
passion
14:40
project,
14:40
Hope
14:40
Floats.
14:42
Keanu
14:42
was
14:43
offered
14:43
$12
14:44
million,
14:44
but
14:45
after
14:45
finishing
14:45
another
14:46
action
14:46
film
14:46
in
14:47
Chain
14:47
Reaction,
14:48
he
14:48
didn't
14:48
fancy
14:49
doing
14:49
another
14:49
action
14:49
movie
14:50
and
14:51
also
14:51
the
14:51
script
14:51
was
14:52
a
14:52
bit
14:52
duff
14:52
because
14:53
it's
14:53
infamously
14:54
about
14:54
a
14:54
cruise
14:54
ship
14:55
going
14:55
out
14:55
of
14:55
control.
14:57
So
14:57
he
14:57
passed
14:58
on
14:58
Speed
14:58
two
14:59
to
14:59
make
14:59
the
14:59
Devil's
15:00
Advocate
15:00
and
15:01
he
15:01
also
15:01
took
15:01
a
15:01
pay
15:02
cut
15:02
to
15:02
make
15:02
the
15:03
Devil's
15:03
Advocate
15:04
over
15:04
the
15:04
$12
15:04
million
15:05
he
15:05
was
15:05
offered
15:06
for
15:06
the
15:06
Speed
15:07
sequel.
15:08
Al
15:08
Pacino
15:09
had
15:09
been
15:09
offered
15:09
the
15:09
role
15:10
of
15:10
John
15:10
Milton
15:11
three
15:11
times
15:12
and
15:12
he'd
15:12
rejected
15:13
it
15:13
each
15:13
time.
15:14
Desperate
15:14
to
15:15
hook
15:15
Pacino
15:15
for
15:15
the
15:16
role,
15:16
Hackford
15:17
and
15:17
screenwriter
15:18
Tony
15:18
Gilroy
15:18
wrote
15:19
a
15:19
couple
15:19
of
15:19
scenes
15:20
to
15:20
show
15:20
Pacino
15:21
how
15:21
the
15:21
role
15:22
would
15:22
be
15:22
tailored
15:23
just
15:23
for
15:23
him.
15:24
A
15:24
devil
15:24
who
15:25
was
15:25
sardonic,
15:26
fascinating,
15:27
charming,
15:27
sexy
15:28
and
15:28
seductive,
15:29
but
15:29
not
15:30
necessarily
15:30
all
15:30
powerful,
15:31
operating
15:32
purely
15:33
on
15:33
the
15:33
power
15:33
of
15:33
temptation
15:34
and
15:35
lets
15:35
humans
15:36
choose
15:36
ultimately
15:37
what
15:37
to
15:37
do.
15:38
Pacino
15:39
would
15:39
recommend
15:39
Sean
15:40
Connery
15:40
and
15:40
Robert
15:41
Redford,
15:41
but
15:42
the
15:42
production
15:42
really
15:43
wanted
15:43
him
15:44
and
15:44
so
15:44
did
15:44
Keanu
15:45
Reeves,
15:45
who
15:45
obviously
15:46
had
15:46
signed
15:46
onto
15:46
the
15:46
movie
15:47
and
15:47
really
15:48
wanted
15:48
to
15:48
work
15:48
with
15:49
the
15:49
iconic
15:50
actor.
15:50
Pacino
15:51
would
15:52
eventually
15:52
agree,
15:53
but
15:53
the
15:53
problem
15:53
was
15:54
the
15:54
movie
15:55
couldn't
15:55
actually
15:55
afford
15:55
Al
15:56
Pacino.
15:57
So
15:57
Keanu
15:57
Reeves
15:58
agreed
15:58
to
15:58
a
15:58
further
15:59
pay
15:59
cut
15:59
to
15:59
ensure
16:00
they
16:00
could
16:00
afford
16:01
him.
16:01
Because
16:01
any
16:02
actor
16:02
worth
16:02
their
16:02
salt
16:03
in
16:03
Hollywood
16:04
would
16:04
die
16:04
to
16:05
work
16:05
with
16:05
Al
16:06
Pacino.
16:06
Keanu
16:07
would
16:07
do
16:07
the
16:08
same
16:08
thing
16:08
on
16:08
the
16:08
Replacements,
16:09
to
16:09
be
16:09
able
16:10
to
16:10
work
16:10
with
16:10
the
16:11
legendary
16:11
Gene
16:12
Hackman.
16:13
To
16:13
prepare
16:13
for
16:13
his
16:14
role,
16:14
Pacino
16:15
watched
16:15
William
16:15
Duterres
16:16
1941
16:17
movie
16:18
the
16:18
Devil
16:18
and
16:18
Daniel
16:18
Webster
16:19
and
16:19
studied
16:20
Walter
16:20
Houston's
16:21
classic
16:21
performance
16:22
as
16:22
Mr.
16:22
Scratch,
16:23
as
16:23
well
16:24
as
16:24
Claude
16:24
Raine's
16:25
interpretation
16:25
of
16:25
the
16:26
devil
16:26
in
16:26
Angel
16:27
On
16:27
My
16:27
Shoulder
16:28
and
16:28
Jack
16:28
Nicholson's
16:29
womanising
16:30
Daryl
16:30
Van
16:30
Horn
16:30
in
16:31
the
16:31
Witches
16:31
of
16:31
Eastwick.
16:32
He
16:32
also
16:33
read
16:33
Paradise
16:34
Lost
16:34
and
16:34
Dante's
16:35
Inferno,
16:35
which
16:36
was
16:36
also
16:36
a
16:36
visual
16:37
influence
16:37
for
16:37
the
16:37
film.
16:38
Following
16:38
the
16:38
model
16:38
of
16:39
the
16:39
Divine
16:39
Comedy,
16:41
the
16:41
relatively
16:41
unknown
16:42
22
16:42
year
16:42
old
16:42
Charlize
16:43
Theron,
16:44
fresh
16:44
off
16:44
of
16:45
auditioning
16:45
for
16:45
Showgirls.
16:46
You
16:46
remember
16:46
she
16:47
was
16:47
turned
16:47
down
16:47
for
16:47
that.
16:48
But
16:48
she
16:48
also
16:48
wasn't
16:49
a
16:49
huge
16:49
fan
16:50
of
16:50
the
16:50
extreme
16:50
nudity
16:52
in
16:52
this
16:52
movie.
16:53
She
16:53
would
16:53
have
16:53
a
16:53
nude
16:54
love
16:54
scene
16:54
and
16:54
a
16:54
nude
16:55
scene
16:55
in
16:55
a
16:55
church
16:56
and
16:56
she
16:57
asked
16:57
her
16:57
mother
16:57
for
16:58
advice
16:58
on
16:58
whether
16:58
or
16:59
not
16:59
she
16:59
should
16:59
take
16:59
the
17:00
role.
17:00
Her
17:01
mum
17:01
encouraged
17:01
her
17:02
to
17:02
do
17:02
it
17:02
by
17:02
telling
17:02
her,
17:03
quote,
17:03
you
17:04
should
17:04
never
17:04
let
17:04
anything
17:05
stand
17:05
in
17:05
your
17:05
way
17:06
of
17:06
telling
17:06
a
17:06
true
17:07
story.
17:07
End
17:07
quote.
17:08
And
17:08
it
17:08
turned
17:09
out
17:09
to
17:09
be
17:09
Theron's
17:10
breakthrough
17:10
role,
17:11
but
17:11
she
17:11
almost
17:11
didn't
17:12
get
17:12
it
17:12
for
17:13
being
17:13
too
17:14
beautiful.
17:14
Hackford
17:15
auditioned
17:16
her
17:16
four
17:16
times
17:17
before
17:17
offering
17:17
her
17:18
the
17:18
role
17:18
of
17:18
Mary
17:19
Ann
17:19
Lomax.
17:20
It
17:20
wasn't
17:20
a
17:21
particularly
17:21
happy
17:21
experience
17:22
for
17:22
her
17:22
at
17:23
the
17:23
start
17:23
though,
17:23
because
17:24
Taylor
17:24
Hackford's
17:25
Method
17:25
acting
17:26
role
17:26
was
17:26
exhausting
17:27
for
17:27
her,
17:27
with
17:27
Mary
17:28
Ann's
17:28
descent
17:29
into
17:29
madness
17:30
starting
17:30
to
17:30
affect
17:30
her
17:31
day
17:31
to
17:31
day
17:31
life.
17:32
Once
17:32
she
17:33
stopped
17:33
method
17:33
acting,
17:34
the
17:34
experience
17:35
was
17:35
much
17:35
more
17:35
pleasant
17:36
and
17:36
she
17:36
worked
17:37
closely
17:37
with
17:37
Keanu
17:38
to
17:38
build
17:38
up
17:38
their
17:38
character's
17:39
chemistry
17:40
because
17:40
they're
17:40
married
17:41
for
17:41
five
17:41
years.
17:42
She
17:42
also
17:42
talked
17:42
to
17:43
doctors,
17:43
psychiatrists
17:44
and
17:44
psychologists
17:45
for
17:45
advice
17:46
on
17:46
how
17:46
to
17:46
portray
17:47
Mary
17:47
Ann's
17:48
nervous
17:48
breakdown.
17:49
The
17:49
day
17:49
they
17:50
shot
17:50
the
17:50
church
17:50
scene,
17:51
the
17:51
priest
17:51
of
17:52
the
17:52
church
17:52
greeted
17:53
her
17:53
and
17:53
told
17:53
her
17:54
how
17:54
wonderful
17:54
it
17:55
was
17:55
that
17:55
this
17:55
character,
17:56
desperately
17:57
in
17:57
need
17:57
of
17:57
help
17:58
and
17:58
love,
17:58
goes
17:59
to
17:59
church
17:59
to
18:00
find
18:00
it.
18:01
And
18:01
this
18:01
was
18:01
a
18:02
movie
18:02
that
18:02
was
18:03
filmed
18:03
at
18:03
real
18:04
churches
18:04
and
18:04
real
18:05
buildings
18:05
in
18:05
New
18:05
York,
18:06
and
18:06
shooting
18:07
on
18:07
location
18:08
in
18:08
and
18:08
around
18:08
New
18:09
York
18:09
was
18:09
a
18:09
struggle.
18:10
Principal
18:11
photography
18:11
began
18:12
in
18:12
late
18:12
1996,
18:13
but
18:13
within
18:14
the
18:14
first
18:14
two
18:14
weeks,
18:15
the
18:15
original
18:16
cinematographer
18:17
and
18:17
both
18:17
the
18:17
first
18:18
and
18:18
second
18:18
assistant
18:19
directors
18:20
were
18:20
fired
18:20
and
18:21
had
18:21
to
18:21
be
18:21
replaced.
18:22
Andre
18:22
Botkowiak
18:23
was
18:24
brought
18:24
on
18:24
as
18:24
the
18:24
new
18:25
director
18:25
of
18:25
photography.
18:26
The
18:26
short
18:26
daylight
18:27
hours
18:27
were
18:28
also
18:28
blamed
18:28
for
18:28
the
18:28
movie
18:29
falling
18:29
behind
18:30
schedule
18:30
as
18:31
well
18:31
as
18:31
a
18:31
continually
18:32
tardy
18:33
Al
18:33
Pacino.
18:34
This
18:34
was
18:34
denied
18:35
by
18:35
producer
18:35
Arnold
18:36
Kopelman,
18:36
who
18:36
called
18:37
Pacino
18:38
the
18:38
consumer
18:38
professional
18:39
who
18:39
shows
18:40
up
18:40
to
18:40
work
18:40
when
18:40
called.
18:41
But
18:41
there
18:42
were
18:42
rumors
18:42
that
18:42
Pacino
18:43
and
18:43
director
18:43
Taylor
18:44
Hackford
18:44
didn't
18:45
see
18:45
eye
18:45
to
18:45
eye
18:46
with
18:46
Pacino,
18:47
calling
18:47
Hackford
18:47
arrogant
18:48
and
18:48
claiming
18:49
that
18:49
he
18:49
yelled
18:49
at
18:50
everyone.
18:50
There
18:51
were
18:51
also
18:51
rumors
18:51
that
18:52
Pacino
18:52
wasn't
18:52
happy
18:53
with
18:53
Keanu.
18:54
How
18:54
could
18:54
that
18:54
be
18:54
possible?
18:55
Pacino's
18:56
publicist,
18:56
Pat
18:56
Kingsley,
18:57
said
18:58
the
18:58
actor
18:58
looked
18:59
forward
18:59
to
18:59
seeing
18:59
Keanu
19:00
every
19:00
day
19:00
and
19:01
that
19:01
he
19:01
was
19:01
a
19:01
joy
19:02
to
19:02
work
19:02
with.
19:02
Kingsley
19:03
also
19:03
denied
19:04
that
19:04
Pacino
19:04
was
19:05
late
19:05
or
19:05
had
19:05
any
19:06
contempt
19:06
for
19:06
Hackford.
19:07
There
19:08
was
19:08
also
19:08
the
19:08
tiny
19:09
issue
19:09
of
19:09
Charlize
19:10
Theron
19:10
working
19:10
illegally
19:11
in
19:11
the
19:11
US
19:12
and
19:12
being
19:12
kicked
19:13
out
19:13
of
19:13
the
19:13
country
19:13
during
19:14
filming
19:14
too.
19:15
Luckily,
19:15
that
19:16
was
19:16
resolved
19:16
quickly,
19:17
but
19:17
the
19:17
delays
19:17
kept
19:18
mounting.
19:18
And
19:19
within
19:19
the
19:19
industry
19:20
there
19:20
were
19:20
rumors
19:20
that
19:21
maybe
19:21
the
19:21
devil's
19:22
work
19:22
was
19:22
at
19:22
play
19:23
on
19:23
the
19:23
movie.
19:24
The
19:25
production
19:25
designer
19:25
here
19:26
was
19:26
Bruno
19:26
Rubio
19:27
and
19:27
he
19:27
designed
19:28
John
19:28
Milton's
19:28
apartment,
19:29
the
19:29
design
19:30
of
19:30
which
19:30
I'm
19:30
going
19:31
to
19:31
come
19:31
back
19:31
to
19:31
later.
19:32
But
19:32
the
19:32
ultra
19:33
modern
19:33
look
19:33
of
19:33
his
19:33
office
19:34
was
19:34
inspired
19:34
by
19:35
Japanese
19:35
and
19:35
Italian
19:36
architectural
19:37
design,
19:37
with
19:38
the
19:38
infinity
19:38
pool
19:39
added
19:39
later
19:39
in
19:40
post
19:40
because
19:41
that's
19:41
not
19:41
especially
19:42
safe
19:42
to
19:42
have
19:43
in
19:43
real
19:43
life.
19:44
And
19:44
it
19:44
goes
19:44
without
19:45
saying
19:45
that
19:45
a
19:45
character
19:45
who
19:46
displays
19:46
a
19:46
Trumpian
19:47
level
19:48
of
19:48
opulence
19:48
and
19:48
a
19:49
dubious
19:49
character
19:50

19:51
in
19:51
fact
19:52
modelled
19:52
on
19:52
Donald
19:53
Trump.
19:53
And
19:53
Trump
19:54
lent
19:54
his
19:54
penthouse
19:55
in
19:55
Trump
19:55
Tower,
19:56
Fifth

19:56
to
19:57
the

as

20:14
The
20:14
boxing
20:15
match
20:15
that
20:15
Lomax
20:16
and
20:16
Milton
20:16
attend
20:17
was
20:17
not
20:17
a
20:17
stage
20:18
bout,
20:19
but
20:19
it
20:19
was
20:19
in
20:19
fact
20:20
a
20:20
legitimate
20:20
world
20:21
championship
20:21
boxing
20:22
match.
20:22
It
20:23
took
20:23
place
20:23
on
20:23
the
20:23
4th
20:24
of
20:24
October
20:24
1996
20:25
at
20:25
Madison
20:26
Square
20:26
Garden
20:26
in
20:27
New
20:27
York,
20:27
and
20:27
it
20:28
was
20:28
between
20:28
Roy
20:29
Jones
20:29
Jr.
20:29
And
20:30
Bryant
20:30
Brannon.
20:31
Jones
20:31
knocked
20:32
out
20:32
Brannon
20:32
during
20:32
the
20:33
second
20:33
round
20:33
of
20:33
the
20:33
bout.
20:34
The
20:35
Jones
20:35
Brandon
20:35
bout
20:36
was
20:36
supplemented
20:37
with
20:37
a
20:37
WBA
20:38
welterweight
20:38
title
20:39
fight
20:39
featuring
20:40
champion
20:40
Ike
20:41
Qwerty
20:41
defending
20:42
against
20:42
challenger
20:42
over
20:43
Carr.
20:44
Carr
20:44
was
20:44
promoted
20:45
by
20:45
Don
20:45
Kane,
20:46
which
20:46
is
20:47
why
20:47
the
20:47
promoter
20:47
appears
20:48
as
20:48
himself
20:49
in
20:49
the
20:49
movie,
20:50
because
20:50
he
20:50
was
20:50
at
20:51
the
20:51
match
20:51
that
20:51
day.
20:52
I'm
20:52
not
20:52
saying
20:53
Don
20:53
King
20:54
is
20:54
friends
20:54
with
20:54
the
20:54
devil,
20:55
but
20:55
he
20:55
was
20:55
the
20:56
most
20:56
successful
20:57
promoter
20:57
in
20:57
boxing
20:58
history
20:58
and
20:58
allegedly
20:59
stole
20:59
money
21:00
from
21:00
all
21:00
his
21:00
boxers.
21:01
He
21:01
was
21:02
sued
21:02
by
21:02
Muhammad
21:03
Ali,
21:03
Larry
21:04
Holmes,
21:04
Mike
21:05
Tyson,
21:05
Tim
21:06
Witherspoon,
21:06
Terry
21:07
Norris
21:07
and
21:07
Lennox
21:08
Lewis,
21:09
most
21:09
of
21:09
whom
21:09
agreed
21:10
on
21:10
financial
21:10
settlements
21:11
out
21:11
of
21:11
court.
21:12
So
21:12
I'm
21:13
not
21:13
saying
21:13
he's
21:13
friends
21:14
with
21:14
the
21:14
devil,
21:15
but
21:15
I'm
21:15
also
21:15
not
21:16
not
21:16
saying
21:16
that
21:17
Improvisation
21:18
was
21:18
encouraged
21:19
on
21:19
set,
21:19
which
21:20
led
21:20
to
21:20
Pacino
21:21
singing
21:21
and
21:21
dancing
21:21
to
21:22
It
21:22
Happened
21:22
in
21:22
Monterey
21:23
by
21:23
Frank
21:24
Sinatra
21:24
during
21:25
a
21:25
rehearsal.
21:26
Hackford
21:26
loved
21:27
it
21:27
so
21:27
much
21:27
he
21:28
encouraged
21:28
it
21:28
for
21:28
filming.
21:29
He
21:30
put
21:30
that
21:30
moment
21:30
in
21:31
the
21:31
final
21:31
version
21:31
of
21:32
the
21:32
scene,
21:32
but
21:32
instead
21:32
of
21:33
Pacino
21:33
singing,
21:34
he
21:34
dubbed
21:34
it
21:35
with
21:35
Sinatra
21:36
singing.
21:36
Hackford
21:37
would
21:37
call
21:37
the
21:37
scene
21:38
in
21:38
its
21:38
entirety
21:39
some
21:39
of
21:39
the
21:39
most
21:40
incredible
21:40
improv
21:41
he'd
21:41
ever
21:42
seen
21:42
in
21:42
his
21:42
life.
21:43
But
21:43
that's
21:44
why
21:44
you
21:44
get
21:44
Al
21:44
Pacino
21:45
in
21:45
your
21:45
movie.
21:46
And
21:47
considering
21:47
Pacino
21:48
is
21:48
playing
21:48
the
21:49
devil,
21:49
you
21:49
might
21:50
think
21:50
some
21:50
of
21:50
New
21:51
York's
21:51
most
21:51
iconic
21:52
churches
21:53
would
21:53
be
21:53
reluctant
21:54
to
21:54
allow
21:54
a
21:55
movie
21:55
about
21:55
the
21:56
devil
21:56
to
21:56
film
21:56
in
21:56
them.
21:57
But
21:57
a
21:57
number
21:58
of
21:58
them
21:58
allowed
21:58
it,
21:59
including
21:59
the
21:59
Church
22:00
of
22:00
the
22:00
Heavenly
22:01
Rest,
22:01

of

the

Central

22:05
of
22:05
the
22:06
Most
22:06
Holy
22:06
Redeemer.
22:07
The
22:08
whole
22:08
of
22:08
57th
22:08
street
22:09
was
22:09
emptied
22:09
on
22:10
a
22:10
Sunday
22:10
morning
22:10
at
22:11
7:30am
22:12
to
22:12
film
22:13
the
22:13
abnormally
22:14
empty
22:14

22:15
the
22:15
law
22:15

22:16
of
22:16
Milton,
22:17
Chadwick
22:17

22:18

22:25
was

22:27
the

The

23:07
but
23:07
I'd
23:08
argue
23:08
the
23:08
majority
23:08
of
23:09
the
23:09

the

23:11
well,

23:23
At
23:23
the
23:23
climax
23:24
of
23:24
the
23:24
story,
23:24
after
23:25
Kevin
23:25
Lomax
23:26
renounces
23:26
his
23:26
fate
23:27
to
23:27
conceive
23:27
the
23:28
Antichrist
23:28
with
23:28
his
23:29
half
23:29
sister,
23:30
he
23:30
shoots
23:30
himself
23:31
in
23:31
the
23:31
head
23:31
and
23:31
John
23:32
Milton
23:32
is
23:32
transformed,
23:33
first
23:34
into
23:34
a
23:34
younger
23:34
version
23:35
of
23:35
himself
23:36
that
23:36
resembles
23:36
Keanu
23:37
Reeves,
23:37
and
23:38
then
23:38
into
23:38
an
23:39
angel.
23:39
To
23:40
accomplish
23:40
this,
23:41
they
23:41
used
23:41
life
23:41
masks
23:42
of
23:42
both
23:42
Pacino's
23:43
present
23:43
day
23:44
face
23:44
and
23:45
his
23:45
younger
23:45
face,
23:46
the
23:46
latter
23:46
of
23:47
which
23:47
they
23:47
obtained
23:48
from
23:48
Dick
23:48
Smith,
23:49
who
23:49
created
23:50
it
23:50
for
23:50
the
23:50
Godfather.
23:51
They
23:51
also
23:52
made
23:52
a
23:52
life
23:52
mask
23:53
of
23:53
Keanu
23:53
Reeves,
23:54
and
23:54
Rick
23:55
Baker,
23:55
who
23:55
did
23:56
his
23:56
training
23:56
with
23:56
Dick
23:57
Smith,
23:58
used
23:58
all
23:58
three
23:59
to
23:59
transform
23:59
Pacino
24:00
from
24:00
his
24:01
mature
24:01
face
24:02
to
24:02
a
24:02
youthful
24:02
face
24:03
to
24:03
a
24:03
blend
24:04
of
24:04
his
24:04
own
24:04
and
24:05
Keanu's
24:05
face
24:06
and
24:06
finally
24:07
into
24:07
an
24:07
angel,
24:08
which
24:08
is
24:08
of
24:08
course
24:09
what
24:09
Lucifer
24:10
was
24:10
before
24:10
he
24:10
was
24:11
cast
24:11
out
24:11

24:11
heaven.
24:12
The
24:12
visual
24:13
effects
24:13
budget
24:13
for
24:14
the
24:14
movie
24:14
was
24:14
$5
24:15
million
24:15
and
24:16
20%
24:16
of
24:17
it
24:17
was
24:17
used
24:18
for
24:18
Milton's
24:18
animated
24:19
sculpture
24:20
where
24:20
ballerinas
24:21
were
24:21
filmed
24:21
naked
24:22
in
24:22
a
24:22
tank
24:22

24:22

24:23
next
24:23
to
24:23
a

24:23
screen
24:24
to
24:24
create
24:24
the
24:25
flowing
24:25
creation.
24:26
The
24:26
effect
24:27
took
24:27
three
24:27
months
24:27
to
24:28
film
24:28
and
24:28

39:29
Little
39:29
inside
39:29
information
39:30
about
39:31
God.
39:32
God
39:33
likes
39:33
to
39:33
watch.
39:34
He's
39:34
a
39:35
prankster.
39:36
Think
39:36
about
39:36
it.
39:37
He
39:37
gives
39:38
man
39:39
instincts.
39:41
He
39:42
gives
39:42
you
39:42
this
39:43
extraordinary
39:43
gift.
39:44
And
39:44
then
39:44
what
39:44
does
39:45
he
39:45
do?
39:45
I
39:45
swear,
39:46
for
39:46
his
39:47
own
39:47
amusement,
39:48
his
39:48
own
39:49
private
39:50
cosmic
39:51
gag
39:52
reel,
39:53
he
39:53
sets
39:54
the
39:54
rules
39:55
in
39:55
opposition.
39:56
It's
39:56
the
39:56
goof
39:56
of
39:57
all
39:57
time.
39:58
Look,
39:58
but
39:58
don't
39:59
touch.
40:02
Touch,
40:03
but
40:03
don't
40:03
taste.
40:06
Taste,
40:07
don't
40:07
swallow.
40:09
And
40:09
while
40:10
you're
40:10
jumping
40:10
from
40:10
one
40:11
foot
40:11
to
40:11
the
40:11
next,
40:12
what
40:12
is
40:12
he
40:12
doing?
40:13
He's
40:14
laughing
40:14
his
40:15
sick
40:16
ass
40:16
off.
40:16
He's
40:17
a
40:17
tight
40:17
ass.
40:18
He's
40:19
a
40:19
sadist.
40:21
He's
40:21
an
40:22
absentee
40:23
landlord.
40:24
Worship
40:24
that?
40:26
Never.
40:27
Better
40:27
to
40:27
reign
40:28
in
40:28
hell
40:28
than
40:28
serve
40:29
in
40:29
heaven,
40:29
is
40:29
that
40:29
it?
40:30
Why
40:30
not?
40:32
I'm
40:32
here
40:32
on
40:33
the
40:33
ground
40:33
with
40:33
my
40:34
nose
40:34
in
40:34
it
40:34
since
40:34
the
40:35
whole
40:35
thing
40:35
began.
40:37
I've
40:38
nurtured
40:38
every
40:39
sensation
40:39
man
40:40
has
40:40
been
40:40
inspired
40:41
to
40:41
have.
40:42
I
40:42
cared
40:43
about
40:43
what
40:43
he
40:43
wanted,
40:44
and
40:44
I
40:44
never
40:45
judged
40:45
him.
40:46
Why?
40:46
Because
40:47
I
40:47
never
40:47
rejected
40:48
him.
40:48
In
40:49
spite
40:49
of
40:49
all
40:49
his
40:50
imperfections.
40:50
I.
40:51
I'm
40:51
a
40:51
phantom
40:52
man.
40:54
I'm
40:55
a
40:55
humanist.
40:56
Maybe
40:57
the
40:57
last
40:57
humanist.
40:59
Who,
41:00
in
41:00
their
41:00
right
41:01
mind,
41:01
Kevin,
41:02
could
41:02
possibly
41:03
deny
41:04
the
41:04
20th
41:05
century
41:05
was
41:05
entirely
41:06
mine?
41:07
All
41:07
of
41:08
it,
41:08
Kevin.
41:10
All
41:10
of
41:10
it.
41:12
Mine.
41:14
I'm
41:14
peeking,
41:15
Kevin.
41:17
It's
41:17
my
41:17
time
41:18
now.
41:19
Bye.
