- 16:09Speaker 2: Town Center unus pro omnibus omnes pro uno is the
- 16:16Speaker 2: fitting premise of which nineteen ninety eight film.
- 16:24Speaker 1: And now the answers do the Big Bang round Question one,
- 16:30Speaker 1: which actor won a nineteen ninety five MTV Movie Award
- 16:33Speaker 1: for Best Kiss, which he shared with Lauren Holly Jim Carrie.
- 16:43Speaker 2: Question two. While not designated as such at the time,
- 16:46Speaker 2: some Talent Search, Home Improvement, and Court TV shows have
- 16:49Speaker 2: been retroactively classified as what genre reality.
- 16:57Speaker 1: Question three. The set up proposals put forward to Congress
- 17:02Speaker 1: in nineteen forty five to continue the legacy of FDR's
- 17:05Speaker 1: policies were known by what two word term fair Deal.
- 17:14Speaker 2: And finally, the motto on the double archway in the
- 17:16Speaker 2: Sea Haven Town Center Unas pro omnibus omnus pro uno
- 17:21Speaker 2: is the fitting premise of which nineteen ninety eight film
- 17:26Speaker 2: sharing a name with the architect of the Fair Deal.
- 17:29Speaker 2: It's the satirical reality TV film starring Jim Carrey The
- 17:35Speaker 2: Truman Show. UNA's pro omnibus omnus pro uno. One for all,
- 17:41Speaker 2: all for one.
- 17:42Speaker 1: Because they're all there for true, they're.
- 17:44Speaker 2: All there for him, they're all actors. There's a lot
- 17:48Speaker 2: of fun trivia about the movie and stuff, pretty fun
- 17:52Speaker 2: little easter egg in it.
- 17:54Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't think i've seen it since it came out,
- 17:59Speaker 1: but I remember really liking it and thinking it was
- 18:02Speaker 1: a great concept and well executed and a good cast.
- 18:05Speaker 2: It was. The director was nominated for Best Director, but
- 18:09Speaker 2: the film was not nominated for Best Film.
- 18:12Speaker 1: Best Picture, probably because it had comedy in it.
- 18:15Speaker 2: Maybe people were just starting to take him seriously as
- 18:20Speaker 2: an actor, I think, because you know, he'd done great
- 18:23Speaker 2: comedies up until then. But Jim Carrey's got great range
- 18:27Speaker 2: and it was a great fit for it. They considered
- 18:30Speaker 2: Robin Williams for the part I think he would have
- 18:32Speaker 2: been great in it too, Yeah, and several others. I
- 18:35Speaker 2: think even Samuel L. Jackson was thrown out there. Ed
- 18:39Speaker 2: Harris was way down the list of people to play
- 18:42Speaker 2: that Christoph role. It's a really well done satire, I
- 18:47Speaker 2: would say, and crazy that it hasn't been tried yet.
- 18:52Speaker 1: That's true.
- 18:53Speaker 2: It's sort of been, you know, hinted at here and there.
- 18:55Speaker 2: There was that one show that had Marsden it James Marsden,
- 19:00Speaker 2: but they had it was a whole fake setup. We
- 19:02Speaker 2: might have talked about this before, a whole fake setup
- 19:05Speaker 2: of a trial and this one random dude was a
- 19:09Speaker 2: jury member and everybody else was an actor, and including
- 19:13Speaker 2: James Marsden who was playing himself, and it was it
- 19:17Speaker 2: was just hilarious. It was really well done.
- 19:20Speaker 1: And yeah, it's called jury duty. And it worked so
- 19:24Speaker 1: well because the guy that they got to be the
- 19:27Speaker 1: unsuspecting real person was just a good guy.
- 19:32Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, he was a good dude.
- 19:33Speaker 1: He took up for people and took blame for stuff
- 19:37Speaker 1: and and yeah it was very positive and just doing
- 19:40Speaker 1: his best while everyone else was being kind of ridiculous.
- 19:43Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So anyways, fun times Truman Harry Truman wanted
- 19:51Speaker 2: to continue the progressive policies of FDR's new Deal, and
- 19:57Speaker 2: so that's why he termed it the fair Deal that
- 20:00Speaker 2: makes sense and Fairdeal had some good ideas in there. Anyways,

- 21:00Speaker 1: but when they started out, the first job they could
- 21:04Speaker 1: ever get was some headmaster of a Catholic school or
- 21:09Speaker 1: whatever hired them. And that's how Joseph and the Technicolor
- 21:13Speaker 1: Dream Coate was written. So it was written not for
- 21:18Speaker 1: a big thing. And then they got back or somehow
- 21:23Speaker 1: to get to an opportunity to write, and so they
- 21:27Speaker 1: write Jesus Christ Superstar and they're like, yay, we did it.
- 21:30Speaker 1: We wrote this musical. And then nobody wanted to put
- 21:32Speaker 1: it on as a production, so they made it as
- 21:34Speaker 1: a record. The record was a huge hit, and then
- 21:38Speaker 1: and then it was.
- 21:38Speaker 2: The longest running musical until Kiettes on the West End.
- 21:44Speaker 2: I should say Bud Wiser, Well, I didn't vote for.
- 21:51Speaker 1: Him, because you usually vote for your kings.
- 21:55Speaker 2: You don't vote for King Monty Python, Supreme execut of
