1 00:00:08,210 --> 00:00:06,650 I think a good launching point is the 2 00:00:10,940 --> 00:00:08,220 attention that you got for coming out as 3 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:10,950 a conservative in Hollywood it's kind of 4 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:13,410 the story that everybody wants to tell a 5 00:00:17,029 --> 00:00:15,570 fox news wants to tell because everybody 6 00:00:18,950 --> 00:00:17,039 assumes that everybody's liberal there 7 00:00:21,980 --> 00:00:18,960 and they assume that there is a 8 00:00:24,380 --> 00:00:21,990 politically correct environment that 9 00:00:28,009 --> 00:00:24,390 exists in Hollywood that prevents people 10 00:00:30,140 --> 00:00:28,019 from speaking their mind and being open 11 00:00:31,959 --> 00:00:30,150 and I assume you're gonna say yes there 12 00:00:35,270 --> 00:00:31,969 is this politically correct environment 13 00:00:38,810 --> 00:00:35,280 no question no question there is and 14 00:00:40,940 --> 00:00:38,820 it's it's it's more of an unspoken thing 15 00:00:42,940 --> 00:00:40,950 and it doesn't necessarily Annabeth I 16 00:00:46,069 --> 00:00:42,950 even talked about this on Fox & Friends 17 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:46,079 that's not to say that conservatives 18 00:00:51,290 --> 00:00:49,410 don't work because if you're if you're a 19 00:00:54,500 --> 00:00:51,300 conservative but you're bringing in the 20 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:54,510 big bucks I mean the really big bucks if 21 00:00:58,340 --> 00:00:55,890 you're you know you're not a little guy 22 00:01:02,090 --> 00:00:58,350 like me but if you're if you're somebody 23 00:01:04,939 --> 00:01:02,100 that you know if your film or you in a 24 00:01:08,450 --> 00:01:04,949 starring role brings in big money then 25 00:01:10,550 --> 00:01:08,460 they're gonna they're gonna just swallow 26 00:01:13,310 --> 00:01:10,560 it and they are going to work with you 27 00:01:15,350 --> 00:01:13,320 because money is the overriding and this 28 00:01:17,330 --> 00:01:15,360 is what's so interesting is that you 29 00:01:19,999 --> 00:01:17,340 know a lot of people on the left and a 30 00:01:22,010 --> 00:01:20,009 lot of leftist because there's there's 31 00:01:27,109 --> 00:01:22,020 really barely any liberals anymore 32 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:27,119 a lot of leftists have there their 33 00:01:31,819 --> 00:01:29,130 ideals but at the end of the day their 34 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:31,829 ideals only last so long as their 35 00:01:36,649 --> 00:01:34,650 paycheck yeah right and so if they're 36 00:01:38,780 --> 00:01:36,659 making a lot of money off of this person 37 00:01:41,539 --> 00:01:38,790 they're gonna go oh well we don't like 38 00:01:43,370 --> 00:01:41,549 him we don't like his his views but 39 00:01:44,810 --> 00:01:43,380 we're still gonna use him because we're 40 00:01:47,719 --> 00:01:44,820 getting buku box 41 00:01:51,830 --> 00:01:47,729 did you see Ricky Gervais at the Golden 42 00:01:53,539 --> 00:01:51,840 Globes genius beautiful yeah and I and I 43 00:01:54,950 --> 00:01:53,549 was never really a fan of the guy but to 44 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:54,960 be honest with you I don't I didn't know 45 00:01:57,590 --> 00:01:56,490 him well enough one way or the other to 46 00:01:59,240 --> 00:01:57,600 know whether I was a fan there's 47 00:02:00,289 --> 00:01:59,250 something about him that sort of rubbed 48 00:02:02,359 --> 00:02:00,299 me the wrong way I don't know what it 49 00:02:03,590 --> 00:02:02,369 was so I kind of reluctantly go into 50 00:02:07,010 --> 00:02:03,600 watching it think I'm not gonna like 51 00:02:08,510 --> 00:02:07,020 this guy and then he just frickin killed 52 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:08,520 them 53 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:10,649 you know I forget the line but basically 54 00:02:15,500 --> 00:02:13,290 you guys will gladly us 55 00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:15,510 to Communist China who oppresses their 56 00:02:20,809 --> 00:02:17,310 people and you know good finds people 57 00:02:21,649 --> 00:02:20,819 and so on because for $1 yep remember 58 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:21,659 what I just said 59 00:02:27,949 --> 00:02:25,530 money that's number one number one they 60 00:02:29,780 --> 00:02:27,959 say that it's not but that's not true 61 00:02:30,860 --> 00:02:29,790 well I'm gonna I'm gonna sprinkle aid 62 00:02:32,930 --> 00:02:30,870 one other thing from my personal 63 00:02:34,460 --> 00:02:32,940 experience that just shows ads on to 64 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:34,470 your point about all being money in my 65 00:02:40,610 --> 00:02:38,250 first life I was a civil rights attorney 66 00:02:42,530 --> 00:02:40,620 but representing companies against 67 00:02:44,030 --> 00:02:42,540 claims of civil rights violations so 68 00:02:45,559 --> 00:02:44,040 it's all these employees coming forward 69 00:02:47,420 --> 00:02:45,569 claiming I was fired because of my race 70 00:02:50,750 --> 00:02:47,430 my sex my religion my sexual orientation 71 00:02:52,970 --> 00:02:50,760 etc and I handled dozens and dozens and 72 00:02:57,309 --> 00:02:52,980 dozens of these cases and what I always 73 00:03:00,740 --> 00:02:57,319 say is if you help a company make money 74 00:03:02,660 --> 00:03:00,750 they keep you if you don't help a 75 00:03:06,020 --> 00:03:02,670 company make money they get rid of you 76 00:03:08,539 --> 00:03:06,030 it's that simple and I saw this I saw 77 00:03:11,119 --> 00:03:08,549 this dead on in handling tons of these 78 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:11,129 cases that they never got rid of anybody 79 00:03:13,970 --> 00:03:12,690 who was helping to make money the people 80 00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:13,980 they got rid of we're not helping to 81 00:03:17,479 --> 00:03:15,930 make money and then that person comes up 82 00:03:19,159 --> 00:03:17,489 with some rationale or excuse or reason 83 00:03:20,599 --> 00:03:19,169 as to why they were terminated but 84 00:03:22,909 --> 00:03:20,609 really it was no you weren't helping 85 00:03:24,650 --> 00:03:22,919 their bottom line right well and you 86 00:03:29,420 --> 00:03:24,660 know something happened to me fairly 87 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:29,430 recently before the Christmas break 88 00:03:35,390 --> 00:03:32,250 I booked a film and it was just a small 89 00:03:38,479 --> 00:03:35,400 role but it was a big film and which was 90 00:03:43,339 --> 00:03:38,489 nice because it's been quite a while and 91 00:03:46,069 --> 00:03:43,349 so you know it's all excited I have we 92 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:46,079 signed contracts yet no we had to sign 93 00:03:51,409 --> 00:03:48,290 contracts but we had you know kind of 94 00:03:55,189 --> 00:03:51,419 agreed on the rate blah blah blah you 95 00:03:57,530 --> 00:03:55,199 know I talked to the first ad talked to 96 00:03:59,360 --> 00:03:57,540 wardrobe you know gave them my 97 00:04:04,460 --> 00:03:59,370 measurements we were all kind of going 98 00:04:08,089 --> 00:04:04,470 down that road and then a few weeks 99 00:04:11,750 --> 00:04:08,099 later they fired me and I didn't ever 100 00:04:14,059 --> 00:04:11,760 work I got paid I got paid in full in 101 00:04:17,599 --> 00:04:14,069 fact so you would sought you had signed 102 00:04:20,390 --> 00:04:17,609 a contract with them I hadn't signed but 103 00:04:21,830 --> 00:04:20,400 it was a verbal contract that they you 104 00:04:23,750 --> 00:04:21,840 know that they were going to use me and 105 00:04:27,210 --> 00:04:23,760 I had gone down that road and they 106 00:04:30,420 --> 00:04:27,220 called sag they registered me as this 107 00:04:34,260 --> 00:04:30,430 with sag blah blah blah all of that 108 00:04:36,870 --> 00:04:34,270 stuff and and then and then they didn't 109 00:04:41,460 --> 00:04:36,880 use me and their explanation was none 110 00:04:43,740 --> 00:04:41,470 and why did they still pay you because 111 00:04:45,630 --> 00:04:43,750 they had already said that they were 112 00:04:47,190 --> 00:04:45,640 gonna book me and because they had 113 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:47,200 already called sag they had already 114 00:04:52,350 --> 00:04:49,330 called my manager blah blah blah 115 00:04:56,430 --> 00:04:52,360 yeah and I presume your theory is that 116 00:04:59,700 --> 00:04:56,440 they googled you that's my theory 117 00:05:02,850 --> 00:04:59,710 yes that is my theory but who knows and 118 00:05:04,050 --> 00:05:02,860 the thing is is that honestly I don't 119 00:05:07,170 --> 00:05:04,060 really even want to give them the 120 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:07,180 satisfaction of me going well why did 121 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:08,770 you fire me because they're just gonna 122 00:05:12,300 --> 00:05:10,570 turn around and say what we thought you 123 00:05:14,610 --> 00:05:12,310 were good but actually we decided at 124 00:05:17,220 --> 00:05:14,620 your crap yeah I mean they're gonna 125 00:05:20,810 --> 00:05:17,230 think of a gazillion different reasons 126 00:05:24,090 --> 00:05:20,820 besides the one that seems like the big 127 00:05:26,700 --> 00:05:24,100 elephant in the room reason you know and 128 00:05:28,590 --> 00:05:26,710 I think that maybe they hadn't googled 129 00:05:30,570 --> 00:05:28,600 me they hired me on went down that road 130 00:05:33,090 --> 00:05:30,580 then googled me because I thought okay 131 00:05:35,700 --> 00:05:33,100 we're working with this chick yeah well 132 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:35,710 that's why I wonder perhaps maybe it's 133 00:05:38,850 --> 00:05:37,210 possible that's why they paid you just 134 00:05:39,870 --> 00:05:38,860 to alleviate any concern that you're 135 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:39,880 gonna come forward and [\h__\h] about 136 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:42,970 anything yeah I mean no I'm not gonna 137 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:45,610 start the thing I won't do because I 138 00:05:49,830 --> 00:05:47,890 don't know is I'm not gonna say well it 139 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:49,840 was this director who was a really good 140 00:05:54,210 --> 00:05:51,490 director I would have really liked to 141 00:05:56,190 --> 00:05:54,220 work with him you know this casting 142 00:05:57,840 --> 00:05:56,200 director you know I have no idea I will 143 00:06:00,390 --> 00:05:57,850 never and that's the thing that's the 144 00:06:02,610 --> 00:06:00,400 weird thing about being blackballed in 145 00:06:05,870 --> 00:06:02,620 Hollywood is that you will never know 146 00:06:08,670 --> 00:06:05,880 you will never know all you know is 147 00:06:10,890 --> 00:06:08,680 you're not getting called in you don't 148 00:06:15,050 --> 00:06:10,900 get called in for castings you don't get 149 00:06:18,690 --> 00:06:15,060 caught and my like my manager is still 150 00:06:21,420 --> 00:06:18,700 with me I don't know why because he 151 00:06:23,610 --> 00:06:21,430 voted for Hillary but he is still with 152 00:06:27,420 --> 00:06:23,620 me and you know I'm thrilled and he's a 153 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:27,430 good guy I like him and I wouldn't say 154 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:29,890 he's a leftist I think he probably 155 00:06:36,060 --> 00:06:31,930 doesn't realize that he's without a 156 00:06:39,090 --> 00:06:36,070 party but my voiceover agent dropped me 157 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:39,100 and I don't have an agent and I'm not 158 00:06:42,780 --> 00:06:40,810 even gonna try honestly 159 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:42,790 I'm not even gonna try and get one 160 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:44,770 anything that I'm gonna do from here on 161 00:06:49,280 --> 00:06:46,570 out will be something that I do of my 162 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:49,290 own accord with my own friends and 163 00:06:53,580 --> 00:06:51,730 crowdfunding etc etc but that's a whole 164 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:53,590 other conversation what about is there 165 00:06:56,790 --> 00:06:55,570 any element of conservatives trying to 166 00:07:00,900 --> 00:06:56,800 help each other out and stick together 167 00:07:03,420 --> 00:07:00,910 in Hollywood I mean you've got example 168 00:07:05,250 --> 00:07:03,430 of one that's you know like I said if 169 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:05,260 you're making them enough money then 170 00:07:09,450 --> 00:07:08,170 it's okay if you're in the middle where 171 00:07:11,250 --> 00:07:09,460 you're an actress that's somewhat 172 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:11,260 fungible then it then it's not so okay 173 00:07:15,060 --> 00:07:12,970 right yeah as soon as if you're 174 00:07:18,150 --> 00:07:15,070 expendable they don't care if you're 175 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:18,160 expendable you are expendable or if 176 00:07:22,170 --> 00:07:20,650 you're expendable you are expended if 177 00:07:24,090 --> 00:07:22,180 that makes sense 178 00:07:26,190 --> 00:07:24,100 so you know but if you're not expendable 179 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:26,200 and people know that they can make money 180 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:28,290 from you then they'll keep you on 181 00:07:32,850 --> 00:07:31,450 they'll you know they'll have you sign 182 00:07:35,460 --> 00:07:32,860 their contracts and they'll give your 183 00:07:38,010 --> 00:07:35,470 give you money and they'll try and keep 184 00:07:39,750 --> 00:07:38,020 themselves from gagging yeah that's 185 00:07:42,270 --> 00:07:39,760 pretty much how it is and the sticking 186 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:42,280 together part say again 187 00:07:45,750 --> 00:07:43,930 conservative sticking together as that 188 00:07:47,670 --> 00:07:45,760 exists where those conservatives 189 00:07:51,180 --> 00:07:47,680 actually sorry about that I kind of went 190 00:07:53,550 --> 00:07:51,190 office and conservatives they we have a 191 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:53,560 number of kind of private groups that 192 00:07:58,230 --> 00:07:56,290 meet at private locations where we 193 00:08:01,920 --> 00:07:58,240 discuss various projects and things like 194 00:08:03,900 --> 00:08:01,930 that you have to wear a mask again no we 195 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:03,910 just don't advertise where this location 196 00:08:10,409 --> 00:08:07,930 is sometimes it's at the back rooms of 197 00:08:12,980 --> 00:08:10,419 restaurants that you know they rent out 198 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:12,990 or sometimes it's at a private home 199 00:08:19,230 --> 00:08:15,250 there's a few different you know there's 200 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:19,240 friends of a whose friends Ron there's a 201 00:08:24,330 --> 00:08:21,490 few there's a few different conservative 202 00:08:26,969 --> 00:08:24,340 meetup groups a lot of them based around 203 00:08:28,890 --> 00:08:26,979 the industry and then there's also some 204 00:08:32,610 --> 00:08:28,900 conservatives in fact I've been in talks 205 00:08:35,490 --> 00:08:32,620 with this one group of of people and 206 00:08:37,860 --> 00:08:35,500 investors that have a new studio that 207 00:08:40,560 --> 00:08:37,870 they're starting up I'm not gonna say 208 00:08:42,079 --> 00:08:40,570 what it's not in California but it's a 209 00:08:45,810 --> 00:08:42,089 new studio they're starting up 210 00:08:50,130 --> 00:08:45,820 specifically to do conservative base 211 00:08:54,450 --> 00:08:50,140 film and actually no wait I need to 212 00:08:57,269 --> 00:08:54,460 correct that specifically to do film 213 00:09:00,090 --> 00:08:57,279 that is subversively conservative 214 00:09:04,079 --> 00:09:00,100 because the truth is is that if you're 215 00:09:07,829 --> 00:09:04,089 gonna do a conservative base film no one 216 00:09:09,870 --> 00:09:07,839 from the center to the left is gonna go 217 00:09:11,970 --> 00:09:09,880 and see that film in fact not only are 218 00:09:15,510 --> 00:09:11,980 they not going to see it they're going 219 00:09:18,690 --> 00:09:15,520 to ridicule it laughed at it protest it 220 00:09:21,060 --> 00:09:18,700 etc etc and there's you know it's not 221 00:09:22,980 --> 00:09:21,070 gonna get seen so anytime I mean you 222 00:09:24,870 --> 00:09:22,990 know bless all those people that want to 223 00:09:28,620 --> 00:09:24,880 do these faith-based films or they want 224 00:09:32,220 --> 00:09:28,630 to do films like Gosnell and unplanned 225 00:09:34,380 --> 00:09:32,230 and I'm I'm very supportive of all of 226 00:09:36,540 --> 00:09:34,390 those people that do those films however 227 00:09:38,820 --> 00:09:36,550 those films are not going to change 228 00:09:40,650 --> 00:09:38,830 people's minds the films that are going 229 00:09:45,540 --> 00:09:40,660 to change people's minds have to be 230 00:09:49,340 --> 00:09:45,550 subversive yeah I hear what you're 231 00:09:52,829 --> 00:09:49,350 saying if a film has any whiff of 232 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:52,839 conservativeness to it the critics will 233 00:09:57,510 --> 00:09:54,370 pile on it I think Clint Eastwood's 234 00:09:59,940 --> 00:09:57,520 movies always get about a 25% lower 235 00:10:01,680 --> 00:09:59,950 rotten tomato rating simply because it 236 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:01,690 came from Clint Eastwood I think the 237 00:10:05,730 --> 00:10:03,130 Richard Jewell one was the one that he 238 00:10:07,620 --> 00:10:05,740 did recently that you know only got 239 00:10:09,050 --> 00:10:07,630 about 65 70 percent it's a great movie 240 00:10:12,210 --> 00:10:09,060 there's no reason why that movie 241 00:10:14,460 --> 00:10:12,220 actually because Eastwood does even 242 00:10:16,890 --> 00:10:14,470 though he isn't out conservative he does 243 00:10:19,350 --> 00:10:16,900 not do what you would call obvious 244 00:10:22,079 --> 00:10:19,360 conservative films they are a bit 245 00:10:23,910 --> 00:10:22,089 subversive yeah if you look at the mule 246 00:10:25,110 --> 00:10:23,920 but you know America yeah I mean I 247 00:10:27,530 --> 00:10:25,120 didn't see the mule I mean America's 248 00:10:29,850 --> 00:10:27,540 sniper comes to mind as being pretty 249 00:10:33,060 --> 00:10:29,860 pro-american right more obviously look 250 00:10:35,180 --> 00:10:33,070 at the mule the mule is still and and I 251 00:10:39,390 --> 00:10:35,190 would say the mule is a perfect example 252 00:10:42,060 --> 00:10:39,400 of a subversive conservative film 253 00:10:46,530 --> 00:10:42,070 because here's an older guy who ends up 254 00:10:48,930 --> 00:10:46,540 being a basically a drug runner and but 255 00:10:51,870 --> 00:10:48,940 he did it for the right reasons because 256 00:10:54,780 --> 00:10:51,880 he believed in family that's the key 257 00:10:57,900 --> 00:10:54,790 word believed in family and then when he 258 00:11:00,180 --> 00:10:57,910 did get caught he didn't lie about it he 259 00:11:04,470 --> 00:11:00,190 admitted that he was wrong and he did 260 00:11:07,230 --> 00:11:04,480 his time almost in a in a in a way that 261 00:11:07,860 --> 00:11:07,240 he said okay you caught me I'm glad that 262 00:11:10,110 --> 00:11:07,870 you caught me 263 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:10,120 I'm happy to do my time because I was 264 00:11:14,580 --> 00:11:12,850 wrong even though the reason I did it 265 00:11:18,780 --> 00:11:14,590 was I would I wanted to help my family 266 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:18,790 and that's powerful and it's more things 267 00:11:23,730 --> 00:11:21,250 like that but I think will will change 268 00:11:26,010 --> 00:11:23,740 people's minds but it does have to be 269 00:11:28,050 --> 00:11:26,020 tremendously subversive it just has to 270 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:28,060 have those underlying cards yeah I think 271 00:11:31,110 --> 00:11:29,530 I'm thinking a breakthrough did you see 272 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:31,120 that where the where the kid falls 273 00:11:34,890 --> 00:11:33,010 through the ice and is pronounced dead 274 00:11:36,450 --> 00:11:34,900 essentially and then brought back to 275 00:11:38,430 --> 00:11:36,460 life because the mom is praying over his 276 00:11:40,830 --> 00:11:38,440 body did you see that oh no I haven't 277 00:11:42,810 --> 00:11:40,840 yeah it came out within the last year or 278 00:11:44,430 --> 00:11:42,820 so it was a very good movie but it's 279 00:11:46,260 --> 00:11:44,440 another one where there was just too 280 00:11:49,530 --> 00:11:46,270 much religion in it because at the end 281 00:11:52,260 --> 00:11:49,540 of the day their belief was that God 282 00:11:55,560 --> 00:11:52,270 saved this kid because he was you know 283 00:11:57,420 --> 00:11:55,570 flatlined for about 18 minutes and then 284 00:11:59,490 --> 00:11:57,430 and they basically declared him dead 285 00:12:00,960 --> 00:11:59,500 yeah they say do you want to spend some 286 00:12:02,700 --> 00:12:00,970 time with your child you know before we 287 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:02,710 have to go put him in a bag essentially 288 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:04,930 and mom goes in there and prays over him 289 00:12:08,730 --> 00:12:07,330 for a few minutes and suddenly there's a 290 00:12:11,010 --> 00:12:08,740 pulse and they come back in there now 291 00:12:12,750 --> 00:12:11,020 the truth is in my opinion what really 292 00:12:14,850 --> 00:12:12,760 happened was this kid fell through the 293 00:12:17,820 --> 00:12:14,860 ice he was under the water for about 15 294 00:12:19,710 --> 00:12:17,830 minutes and when you freeze the body or 295 00:12:21,990 --> 00:12:19,720 have it in very cold temperatures yeah 296 00:12:25,530 --> 00:12:22,000 you you know you are able to resuscitate 297 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:25,540 them after it all yeah and that's yeah 298 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:27,850 that's probably what happened it 299 00:12:31,860 --> 00:12:29,770 probably wasn't a miracle but I'm not 300 00:12:33,690 --> 00:12:31,870 going to say it wasn't a miracle but I'm 301 00:12:35,610 --> 00:12:33,700 not a big believer in miracles but 302 00:12:37,710 --> 00:12:35,620 anyway the movie was all about it being 303 00:12:39,420 --> 00:12:37,720 a miracle and the critics panned that 304 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:39,430 because there was just too much religion 305 00:12:44,250 --> 00:12:41,650 in it yeah so how do you make a 306 00:12:45,750 --> 00:12:44,260 subversive have you read one of these 307 00:12:47,550 --> 00:12:45,760 scripts yet I'm just kind of curious you 308 00:12:50,730 --> 00:12:47,560 give the Mules a good example but what 309 00:12:52,230 --> 00:12:50,740 would be another example of and you're 310 00:12:54,750 --> 00:12:52,240 gonna laugh and I've said this before on 311 00:12:58,590 --> 00:12:54,760 another interview but once upon a time 312 00:13:01,440 --> 00:12:58,600 in Hollywood that's subversive the 313 00:13:04,950 --> 00:13:01,450 reason I say that is you have two male 314 00:13:07,350 --> 00:13:04,960 leads both of them are flawed yet they 315 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:07,360 have they both have their own sense of 316 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:10,930 personal responsibility there isn't a 317 00:13:18,150 --> 00:13:15,370 gay undercurrent they're both they can 318 00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:18,160 have a strong relationship with two 319 00:13:26,290 --> 00:13:21,510 straight men a camaraderie but yet they 320 00:13:29,300 --> 00:13:26,300 both comfortable in their own skin and 321 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:29,310 they were in a young hippies and then 322 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:31,050 the way the hippies were depicted was 323 00:13:36,020 --> 00:13:34,530 more not the way hippies are depicted 324 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:36,030 nowadays which is through rose colored 325 00:13:45,260 --> 00:13:39,810 lenses the hippies were depicted as they 326 00:13:47,830 --> 00:13:45,270 really are which was not positive and so 327 00:13:50,780 --> 00:13:47,840 for all of those reasons I I think that 328 00:13:52,390 --> 00:13:50,790 I think it's a subversive film maybe 329 00:13:57,380 --> 00:13:52,400 Quentin Tarantino doesn't even know that 330 00:14:01,430 --> 00:13:57,390 and what is Tarantino is he known to be 331 00:14:03,890 --> 00:14:01,440 no words I think Shortino is probably an 332 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:03,900 old-school liberal I don't think he's a 333 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:08,010 leftist I think it's a classical liberal 334 00:14:15,980 --> 00:14:11,970 and we need more of him but the problem 335 00:14:18,290 --> 00:14:15,990 is is that a lot of the former liberals 336 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:18,300 have now been brainwashed into becoming 337 00:14:25,750 --> 00:14:21,690 leftists and Marxists and intersectional 338 00:14:29,060 --> 00:14:25,760 lists yeah collectivists globalists 339 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:29,070 socialists borderline communist big big 340 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:30,570 big I mean it's been and you know and 341 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:32,370 it's interesting is when you go in and 342 00:14:39,650 --> 00:14:37,170 you look at old old series even if it's 343 00:14:42,740 --> 00:14:39,660 comedy series or older films even from 344 00:14:44,750 --> 00:14:42,750 maybe you know 15 years ago or you know 345 00:14:46,580 --> 00:14:44,760 you start off maybe like in the 40s and 346 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:46,590 50s and you kind of move forward and you 347 00:14:54,340 --> 00:14:49,050 see how the culture has changed how it's 348 00:14:57,100 --> 00:14:54,350 been a very very slow move towards 349 00:14:59,660 --> 00:14:57,110 socialism communism collectivism 350 00:15:03,500 --> 00:14:59,670 globalism it's been a very slow move 351 00:15:06,860 --> 00:15:03,510 progressivism so so so slow in fact that 352 00:15:09,860 --> 00:15:06,870 a lot of people that are leftist now 353 00:15:12,410 --> 00:15:09,870 don't see it they don't see how that 354 00:15:14,060 --> 00:15:12,420 they've how they progressed I agree a 355 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:14,070 hundred percent I think it's a one of 356 00:15:18,740 --> 00:15:16,490 the things that is most under discussed 357 00:15:20,870 --> 00:15:18,750 subjects out there that has happened 358 00:15:22,910 --> 00:15:20,880 very subtly without people realizing it 359 00:15:26,150 --> 00:15:22,920 but it's the the slow takeover of the 360 00:15:28,700 --> 00:15:26,160 Democrat Party by progressives taking 361 00:15:32,030 --> 00:15:28,710 the place of classic liberals to the 362 00:15:33,470 --> 00:15:32,040 point where most of most meat potato 363 00:15:35,090 --> 00:15:33,480 Democrats that you ask what's the 364 00:15:36,830 --> 00:15:35,100 difference between being liberal and be 365 00:15:38,510 --> 00:15:36,840 progessive they would probably couldn't 366 00:15:38,660 --> 00:15:38,520 even tell you the balance between the 367 00:15:42,590 --> 00:15:38,670 two 368 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:42,600 I just find so interesting is that when 369 00:15:47,740 --> 00:15:44,130 I try and have conversations with 370 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:47,750 progressives it seems as though their 371 00:15:54,860 --> 00:15:51,570 their point of view is only this kind of 372 00:15:59,540 --> 00:15:54,870 area that is right in front of them they 373 00:16:01,490 --> 00:15:59,550 don't look at the past other than you 374 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:01,500 know things having to do with Hitler and 375 00:16:06,470 --> 00:16:04,890 that's only perfunctory there they are 376 00:16:08,810 --> 00:16:06,480 literally only concerned with right now 377 00:16:11,390 --> 00:16:08,820 and what's immediately in front of them 378 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:11,400 and I say but you need to look at the 379 00:16:17,330 --> 00:16:14,850 you know you need to look more laterally 380 00:16:19,100 --> 00:16:17,340 and and look at the broader picture of 381 00:16:22,610 --> 00:16:19,110 what's going on here and what all of 382 00:16:24,740 --> 00:16:22,620 this is leading to and they just I mean 383 00:16:27,740 --> 00:16:24,750 their responses usually you know you're 384 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:27,750 crazy you're insane 385 00:16:33,140 --> 00:16:30,450 you know you're an effing idiot blah 386 00:16:36,650 --> 00:16:33,150 blah blah you know yeah and they just 387 00:16:36,950 --> 00:16:36,660 let you down and then block you etc you 388 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:36,960 know 389 00:16:41,210 --> 00:16:39,930 give me those sixties radical liberals 390 00:16:43,430 --> 00:16:41,220 that were protesting against the war 391 00:16:44,990 --> 00:16:43,440 protesting against the man protesting 392 00:16:48,620 --> 00:16:45,000 against government and government 393 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:48,630 control and so on I mean we need that 394 00:16:54,500 --> 00:16:52,010 type of liberalism that has distrust for 395 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:54,510 establishment and distrust for the 396 00:16:59,600 --> 00:16:56,010 government progressivism is all about 397 00:17:01,280 --> 00:16:59,610 embracing the government say that 398 00:17:03,380 --> 00:17:01,290 because I actually think that those 399 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:03,390 people in the 60s were the beginning of 400 00:17:11,140 --> 00:17:08,010 what we've got today so I've really you 401 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:11,150 know my viewpoints have been changing 402 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:14,450 first of all I became a conservative in 403 00:17:21,170 --> 00:17:18,330 well after 9/11 that was my wake-up call 404 00:17:25,250 --> 00:17:21,180 and I've been moving more conservative 405 00:17:28,970 --> 00:17:25,260 since then and as you know I came out of 406 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:28,980 the closet a few years ago but I think 407 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:31,170 when you look at the 60s and you look at 408 00:17:38,360 --> 00:17:34,650 the 60s revolution that was a revolution 409 00:17:40,460 --> 00:17:38,370 towards progressivism and collectivism I 410 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:40,470 understand their reason for wanting to 411 00:17:48,799 --> 00:17:45,690 question the establishment but they were 412 00:17:50,299 --> 00:17:48,809 already too far in that they wanted to 413 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:50,309 we throw the baby out with the bathwater 414 00:17:56,930 --> 00:17:53,970 and that was not a good idea it was a 415 00:17:59,360 --> 00:17:56,940 very very very bad idea and that's what 416 00:18:02,779 --> 00:17:59,370 we're faced with today I'm you know if 417 00:18:04,730 --> 00:18:02,789 people want to have more social programs 418 00:18:08,950 --> 00:18:04,740 I understand the reasoning behind that 419 00:18:11,539 --> 00:18:08,960 even though I don't agree with it but I 420 00:18:15,529 --> 00:18:11,549 the direction that they've gone in today 421 00:18:18,830 --> 00:18:15,539 is is such a gravely wrong and scary 422 00:18:20,389 --> 00:18:18,840 direction and they don't see it yeah 423 00:18:22,279 --> 00:18:20,399 your your I think you're right about 424 00:18:24,590 --> 00:18:22,289 about the 60s I guess what I was trying 425 00:18:27,230 --> 00:18:24,600 to harken back to and what was a good 426 00:18:29,810 --> 00:18:27,240 example of it is Roger Waters from Pink 427 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:29,820 Floyd who you know ultimate whatever he 428 00:18:36,379 --> 00:18:32,970 is but certainly on the left but I saw 429 00:18:38,419 --> 00:18:36,389 him play at old Shella a couple years 430 00:18:40,609 --> 00:18:38,429 ago when it was the stones and McCartney 431 00:18:42,409 --> 00:18:40,619 and all that and it was Roger Waters and 432 00:18:44,869 --> 00:18:42,419 he's got this huge screen he hates Trump 433 00:18:47,450 --> 00:18:44,879 absolutely hates Trump I know he's 434 00:18:50,779 --> 00:18:47,460 playing the wall and it's you know 435 00:18:56,169 --> 00:18:50,789 mother should I trust the government and 436 00:18:59,899 --> 00:18:56,179 then behind him in huge letters [\h__\h] no 437 00:19:02,419 --> 00:18:59,909 I'm Mike thank you we shouldn't trust 438 00:19:04,759 --> 00:19:02,429 the government where are those liberals 439 00:19:07,129 --> 00:19:04,769 that didn't trust the government because 440 00:19:09,830 --> 00:19:07,139 now they want to hand over everything to 441 00:19:13,970 --> 00:19:09,840 the government it's true it's true 442 00:19:16,850 --> 00:19:13,980 well they they don't realize actually 443 00:19:21,859 --> 00:19:16,860 that the establishment that they thought 444 00:19:24,739 --> 00:19:21,869 that they shouldn't trust is them they 445 00:19:26,749 --> 00:19:24,749 are on the side of the establishment I 446 00:19:28,460 --> 00:19:26,759 mean I think that gets back to what you 447 00:19:29,989 --> 00:19:28,470 were saying about the 60s that you know 448 00:19:33,129 --> 00:19:29,999 they questioned the establishment but 449 00:19:37,310 --> 00:19:33,139 the establishment are now leftists and 450 00:19:39,769 --> 00:19:37,320 globalists yeah right and that's yeah 451 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:39,779 really but I mean there's a there's a 452 00:19:48,049 --> 00:19:41,129 whole bunch of things that have changed 453 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:48,059 too that have caused our society to 454 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:50,369 change not only towards collectivism but 455 00:19:56,060 --> 00:19:53,610 also it has to do with them with our 456 00:19:58,460 --> 00:19:56,070 rejection of getting back to what you 457 00:20:00,770 --> 00:19:58,470 were saying about prayer our rejection 458 00:20:03,350 --> 00:20:00,780 of religion and our rejection 459 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:03,360 of God we've we've really just 460 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:05,490 wholehearted and definitely our 461 00:20:09,980 --> 00:20:07,730 rejection of Christianity and 462 00:20:12,950 --> 00:20:09,990 traditional just America but the West 463 00:20:16,310 --> 00:20:12,960 has rejected it so much in favor of 464 00:20:19,940 --> 00:20:16,320 quote science as though science is the 465 00:20:21,950 --> 00:20:19,950 ultimate truth which it's not and I 466 00:20:23,930 --> 00:20:21,960 would also add to that traditional 467 00:20:25,940 --> 00:20:23,940 values traditional family because I'm 468 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:25,950 personally not a huge fan of religion 469 00:20:33,140 --> 00:20:28,050 and I don't think we necessarily need 470 00:20:35,780 --> 00:20:33,150 religion to be good people and to you 471 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:35,790 know have a good society I do think that 472 00:20:40,430 --> 00:20:37,890 religion can add a lot of value 473 00:20:42,620 --> 00:20:40,440 it also has had a lot of negativity in 474 00:20:44,030 --> 00:20:42,630 the past but but you're right we've 475 00:20:46,070 --> 00:20:44,040 moved away from religion and may be part 476 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:46,080 and parcel of that is is moving away 477 00:20:50,900 --> 00:20:48,210 from traditional values traditional 478 00:20:52,850 --> 00:20:50,910 family father a loving father and a 479 00:20:55,790 --> 00:20:52,860 mother in the household and so on we 480 00:20:58,760 --> 00:20:55,800 just nations of the Western society yeah 481 00:21:01,580 --> 00:20:58,770 well it great and why it's so real we 482 00:21:05,330 --> 00:21:01,590 just interviewed a psychiatrist 483 00:21:08,510 --> 00:21:05,340 psychologist last week who's an expert 484 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:08,520 in childhood trauma and basically I just 485 00:21:12,950 --> 00:21:10,770 asked him you know where would you rank 486 00:21:14,870 --> 00:21:12,960 the issue of childhood trauma as far as 487 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:14,880 issues facing the world he says the 488 00:21:20,300 --> 00:21:19,290 world's number one problem and I happen 489 00:21:23,120 --> 00:21:20,310 to agree with that 490 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:23,130 childhood almost every behavior as an 491 00:21:32,990 --> 00:21:29,970 adult that is deviant or or not positive 492 00:21:37,430 --> 00:21:33,000 you know addictions and mental illnesses 493 00:21:39,710 --> 00:21:37,440 and criminality etc all go back to 494 00:21:41,750 --> 00:21:39,720 childhood trauma childhood traumas go 495 00:21:46,010 --> 00:21:41,760 way up when you're not raised in a 496 00:21:47,590 --> 00:21:46,020 traditional home yeah I think what has 497 00:21:50,750 --> 00:21:47,600 happened is by us question the 498 00:21:54,580 --> 00:21:50,760 establishment we again threw the baby 499 00:21:56,930 --> 00:21:54,590 out with the bathwater Christianity or 500 00:21:59,560 --> 00:21:56,940 or rather I guess I should say the 501 00:22:01,370 --> 00:21:59,570 ethics and morals derived from 502 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:01,380 Christianity okay I want to make that 503 00:22:07,430 --> 00:22:04,050 really clear derived from Christianity 504 00:22:10,340 --> 00:22:07,440 are the basis for the foundations of 505 00:22:13,550 --> 00:22:10,350 Western civilization if you take all of 506 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:13,560 that away see because what what's 507 00:22:17,230 --> 00:22:14,610 happened is you know 508 00:22:20,150 --> 00:22:17,240 cause we've rejected the idea of 509 00:22:23,120 --> 00:22:20,160 Christian religion this kind of dogma 510 00:22:26,060 --> 00:22:23,130 we've rejected that we're now rejecting 511 00:22:28,910 --> 00:22:26,070 all of it and what I'm saying is that I 512 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:28,920 found a civilization without a 513 00:22:36,169 --> 00:22:32,250 foundation cannot stand and the reason 514 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:36,179 why we're moving into collectivism why 515 00:22:42,860 --> 00:22:39,290 we're moving into a more totalitarian 516 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:42,870 society is because we don't have the 517 00:22:52,130 --> 00:22:47,250 internal sense of soul and the sense of 518 00:22:54,770 --> 00:22:52,140 what our foundations gave us that give 519 00:22:59,120 --> 00:22:54,780 us this sort of guidance because we 520 00:23:01,880 --> 00:22:59,130 don't have that we need to increase the 521 00:23:05,650 --> 00:23:01,890 laws that kind of keep people in place 522 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:05,660 does that make sense yeah the way 523 00:23:10,460 --> 00:23:08,250 relationship with God and you know I say 524 00:23:13,159 --> 00:23:10,470 this not as somebody who goes to church 525 00:23:16,789 --> 00:23:13,169 every Sunday I don't in fact I don't go 526 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:16,799 to church I have a strange relationship 527 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:19,530 with that whole thing that said I 528 00:23:24,980 --> 00:23:22,770 support people going to church and I 529 00:23:27,169 --> 00:23:24,990 support people that I mean I you know I 530 00:23:29,419 --> 00:23:27,179 do absolutely believe in God and I think 531 00:23:32,299 --> 00:23:29,429 and I absolutely believe in the idea of 532 00:23:35,270 --> 00:23:32,309 the soul and this is even more important 533 00:23:37,820 --> 00:23:35,280 than the politics because if we don't 534 00:23:41,860 --> 00:23:37,830 get back to that if we don't get back to 535 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:41,870 our relationship with all of this you 536 00:23:48,620 --> 00:23:45,570 know to ourselves our country our soul 537 00:23:51,010 --> 00:23:48,630 the universe eternity if we don't get 538 00:23:54,140 --> 00:23:51,020 back to understanding that relationship 539 00:23:59,680 --> 00:23:54,150 works as humans we're lost because we 540 00:24:05,270 --> 00:23:59,690 think that we can rely on our our own 541 00:24:08,120 --> 00:24:05,280 mental agility to be able to reason our 542 00:24:10,220 --> 00:24:08,130 own morality well all you have to do is 543 00:24:14,060 --> 00:24:10,230 look at history and you'll see how that 544 00:24:16,610 --> 00:24:14,070 doesn't work agree let's talk about 545 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:16,620 Hollywood a bit more and and the big 546 00:24:20,539 --> 00:24:17,730 story there and I know you've written on 547 00:24:22,460 --> 00:24:20,549 this for Fox and that is you know the 548 00:24:26,450 --> 00:24:22,470 the YouTube movement the Harvey 549 00:24:28,190 --> 00:24:26,460 Weinstein's etc scandal what's your 550 00:24:30,379 --> 00:24:28,200 current take 551 00:24:33,019 --> 00:24:30,389 it today are all the monsters out of the 552 00:24:37,909 --> 00:24:33,029 closet or are there a lot more in there 553 00:24:38,810 --> 00:24:37,919 even not even close not even like tip of 554 00:24:41,090 --> 00:24:38,820 the iceberg 555 00:24:46,129 --> 00:24:41,100 so what's taking so long for them to get 556 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:46,139 outed okay we're in the middle of the b2 557 00:24:51,230 --> 00:24:47,490 movement here it's supposed to be in 558 00:24:53,810 --> 00:24:51,240 vogue for women to come forward you know 559 00:24:55,639 --> 00:24:53,820 it wasn't before because you are 560 00:25:00,680 --> 00:24:55,649 ostracized and you could lose your 561 00:25:04,850 --> 00:25:00,690 career etc but Part B you lose your 562 00:25:06,860 --> 00:25:04,860 career okay let me explain how it works 563 00:25:09,139 --> 00:25:06,870 I mean the thing is when you have 564 00:25:11,889 --> 00:25:09,149 situations where and it's not just in 565 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:11,899 the Hollywood scene it's it's everywhere 566 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:15,090 where you have situations where someone 567 00:25:21,889 --> 00:25:18,570 has access to power and money and then 568 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:21,899 you have beautiful people that that want 569 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:24,450 access to either power money or fame 570 00:25:30,740 --> 00:25:26,850 right and then you've got these people 571 00:25:34,610 --> 00:25:30,750 that are powerful and have money that 572 00:25:38,210 --> 00:25:34,620 want access to beauty that exchange 573 00:25:40,909 --> 00:25:38,220 happens and it will continue to happen 574 00:25:42,980 --> 00:25:40,919 it will happen until the end of time I 575 00:25:44,539 --> 00:25:42,990 hate to say this okay but there's two 576 00:25:47,690 --> 00:25:44,549 different types of exchanges with 577 00:25:50,960 -->

00:28:32,070 that you know from friends and friends 639 00:28:37,930 --> 00:28:34,169 of friends that have a reputation Harvey 640 00:28:41,810 --> 00:28:37,940 I knew Harvey was this predator back in 641 00:28:44,869 --> 00:28:41,820 what was it maybe around 2002 I had a 642 00:28:47,989 --> 00:28:44,879 friend who had Harvey on speed dial she 643 00:28:49,729 --> 00:28:47,999 lives in New York and and she would say 644 00:28:53,359 --> 00:28:49,739 oh yeah he's you know he's a complete 645 00:28:55,340 --> 00:28:53,369 like predator scumbag but you know he's 646 00:28:56,810 --> 00:28:55,350 Harvey Weinstein 647 00:29:01,340 --> 00:28:56,820 and so let me explain to you why people 648 00:29:04,789 --> 00:29:01,350 haven't come forward is that you know 649 00:29:08,630 --> 00:29:04,799 when you when you start navigating your 650 00:29:11,810 --> 00:29:08,640 career and you might hear things about 651 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:11,820 how awful some of these people are you 652 00:29:17,020 --> 00:29:14,490 think well you know what I'm I'm fairly 653 00:29:20,350 --> 00:29:17,030 smart I can probably navigate this 654 00:29:22,820 --> 00:29:20,360 without having anything happen to me 655 00:29:25,700 --> 00:29:22,830 right and you know you don't know I mean 656 00:29:28,340 --> 00:29:25,710 you don't know if if you're gonna get 657 00:29:31,490 --> 00:29:28,350 drugged if you may be turned away and 658 00:29:33,110 --> 00:29:31,500 they stuck something in your drink you 659 00:29:35,060 --> 00:29:33,120 don't know if you're gonna be it is you 660 00:29:37,970 --> 00:29:35,070 you think I mean for instance hotels 661 00:29:41,390 --> 00:29:37,980 meetings and hotel rooms are not 662 00:29:42,620 --> 00:29:41,400 uncommon I mean it sounds insane but 663 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:42,630 they're not it's just they're not 664 00:29:48,470 --> 00:29:45,210 uncommon and so if you find yourself in 665 00:29:50,899 --> 00:29:48,480 that situation I mean I've been in 666 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:50,909 precarious situations where I think well 667 00:29:57,470 --> 00:29:53,250 thank God I got out of that you know how 668 00:30:00,320 --> 00:29:57,480 did I get out of that but I did it 669 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:00,330 that's the thing you you feel like you 670 00:30:05,180 --> 00:30:02,970 can kind of navigate around this because 671 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:05,190 they're sort of like this necessary evil 672 00:30:11,980 --> 00:30:08,490 to sort of move yourself ahead in your 673 00:30:14,539 --> 00:30:11,990 career I know it sounds terrible but 674 00:30:16,399 --> 00:30:14,549 think about it especially in the respect 675 00:30:22,159 --> 00:30:16,409 of Harvey thank God I never met the guy 676 00:30:25,399 --> 00:30:22,169 but with Harvey he greenlit some great 677 00:30:28,970 --> 00:30:25,409 films right I mean he's produced some 678 00:30:30,770 --> 00:30:28,980 amazing films and so people kind of 679 00:30:32,899 --> 00:30:30,780 think well you know I know he's a 680 00:30:35,270 --> 00:30:32,909 complete scumbag but wow he's really 681 00:30:37,490 --> 00:30:35,280 powerful and he might be able to help me 682 00:30:41,210 --> 00:30:37,500 with my career or so if I can just kind 683 00:30:42,890 --> 00:30:41,220 of you know am friendly and cordial and 684 00:30:45,500 --> 00:30:42,900 work with him enough just to kind of 685 00:30:48,710 --> 00:30:45,510 like you know it's that push-pull of 686 00:30:51,230 --> 00:30:48,720 like try to get what I want without kind 687 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:51,240 of having to give in to these things you 688 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:54,450 know and that's what happens I mean if 689 00:31:00,289 --> 00:30:56,370 you look at look at what Ashley Judd 690 00:31:02,539 --> 00:31:00,299 said you know when she tried to use the 691 00:31:05,539 --> 00:31:02,549 whole meet - times up movement - kind of 692 00:31:09,550 --> 00:31:05,549 up her star level again which I could 693 00:31:11,810 --> 00:31:09,560 just find really odious but she said 694 00:31:14,090 --> 00:31:11,820 she said oh yeah you know I had a 695 00:31:16,250 --> 00:31:14,100 meeting with Harvey and in his hotel 696 00:31:18,470 --> 00:31:16,260 room and he propositioned me and she 697 00:31:21,050 --> 00:31:18,480 said Oh get me an Oscar first and then 698 00:31:23,210 --> 00:31:21,060 we'll talk so does that mean that she 699 00:31:24,860 --> 00:31:23,220 would negotiate that sort of thing 700 00:31:28,790 --> 00:31:24,870 because that's what it sounded like to 701 00:31:31,430 --> 00:31:28,800 me well and let's talk about to all the 702 00:31:34,070 --> 00:31:31,440 women who were able to climb the ladder 703 00:31:36,490 --> 00:31:34,080 by playing that game how do we feel 704 00:31:38,900 --> 00:31:36,500 about women who consensually 705 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:38,910 quote-unquote consensually you know they 706 00:31:43,610 --> 00:31:40,890 weren't forcibly raped but they 707 00:31:45,710 --> 00:31:43,620 essentially yeah engaged in sex with 708 00:31:50,690 --> 00:31:45,720 Harvey or another producer in order to 709 00:31:53,900 --> 00:31:50,700 get the part you know it's between them 710 00:31:54,820 --> 00:31:53,910 and their conscience it's between them 711 00:31:58,190 --> 00:31:54,830 and God 712 00:32:01,220 --> 00:31:58,200 if they can wake up the next day and be 713 00:32:04,850 --> 00:32:01,230 okay with it well you know Who am I Who 714 00:32:07,010 --> 00:32:04,860 am I to say yeah yeah this is it though 715 00:32:10,610 --> 00:32:07,020 that that relationship because that 716 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:10,620 relationship goes on you're always gonna 717 00:32:15,740 --> 00:32:13,290 have more Harvey's in the world I mean 718 00:32:17,540 --> 00:32:15,750 if you saw my article for Fox I said you 719 00:32:20,510 --> 00:32:17,550 know how did how to deal and how to deal 720 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:20,520 with a world full of Harvey's there's 721 00:32:24,290 --> 00:32:22,890 always going to be Harvey's you know are 722 00:32:28,180 --> 00:32:24,300 you gonna be one of those people that 723 00:32:30,620 --> 00:32:28,190 are going to compromise yourself because 724 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:30,630 maybe it doesn't mean that much you know 725 00:32:34,130 --> 00:32:32,250 you think oh yeah I'll just screw this 726 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:34,140 guy but you know what I've got my eye on 727 00:32:37,970 --> 00:32:36,330 the ball so I don't really care and it 728 00:32:39,410 --> 00:32:37,980 doesn't bother you it doesn't upset you 729 00:32:41,420 --> 00:32:39,420 so you think can't you just do it 730 00:32:43,940 --> 00:32:41,430 yeah but then there's plenty of girls 731 00:32:45,470 --> 00:32:43,950 that don't want to do that but the thing 732 00:32:47,900 --> 00:32:45,480 is is that for those girls that are 733 00:32:52,190 --> 00:32:47,910 doing that or guys cuz you know goes the 734 00:32:53,990 --> 00:32:52,200 other way and because always um then the 735 00:32:57,070 --> 00:32:54,000 people that are the Predators they're 736 00:32:59,750 --> 00:32:57,080 gonna think well everybody can be um 737 00:33:00,440 --> 00:32:59,760 everybody can succumb everybody has a 738 00:33:04,690 --> 00:33:00,450 price 739 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:04,700 you know if I dangled the right carrots 740 00:33:09,740 --> 00:33:07,170 what will they what will they do you for 741 00:33:11,660 --> 00:33:09,750 that carrot yeah so by participating in 742 00:33:15,310 --> 00:33:11,670 it they are complicit in it 743 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:15,320 yeah and allowing it to continue 744 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:18,210 continue yeah so so it's a sad truth 745 00:33:22,130 --> 00:33:20,010 that will continue some people will be 746 00:33:22,650 --> 00:33:22,140 outed I think it's great that Harvey got 747 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:22,660 out and I 748 00:33:26,790 --> 00:33:24,610 I think it's great that he's in prison 749 00:33:28,980 --> 00:33:26,800 now I honestly do I think it's fantastic 750 00:33:30,780 --> 00:33:28,990 I would love it if there were more that 751 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:30,790 went to prison or at least there were 752 00:33:34,410 --> 00:33:32,650 more the thoughts you know maybe I 753 00:33:35,100 --> 00:33:34,420 shouldn't do this maybe I shouldn't try 754 00:33:38,490 --> 00:33:35,110 this on 755 00:33:41,150 --> 00:33:38,500 you know only with those who are maybe 756 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:41,160 only have this kind of relationship or 757 00:33:47,370 --> 00:33:44,650 arrangement with people that made it 758 00:33:49,050 --> 00:33:47,380 completely and perfectly clear that 759 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:49,060 that's what they're willing to do in 760 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:50,730 order to get where they're willing to go 761 00:33:56,670 --> 00:33:53,410 but the way I look at is there's right 762 00:33:59,700 --> 00:33:56,680 and wrong in this world and if a 763 00:34:03,090 --> 00:33:59,710 producer makes it very clear to a woman 764 00:34:05,550 --> 00:34:03,100 that in order to get this part here's 765 00:34:08,700 --> 00:34:05,560 what you need to do she shouldn't do it 766 00:34:10,110 --> 00:34:08,710 because then she's complicit units yeah 767 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:10,120 I mean who aren't willing to do it 768 00:34:14,869 --> 00:34:11,290 aren't going to get the parts because 769 00:34:17,580 --> 00:34:14,879 there's a big proposition like that I 770 00:34:19,530 --> 00:34:17,590 said no and the reason I've said no is 771 00:34:22,710 --> 00:34:19,540 because I can't live with myself the 772 00:34:25,770 --> 00:34:22,720 next day I can't look at myself so night 773 00:34:27,570 --> 00:34:25,780 one writes me so that's me okay so we're 774 00:34:31,110 --> 00:34:27,580 in agreement that that women should be 775 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:31,120 saying no to that right you can say it's 776 00:34:34,889 --> 00:34:33,010 their own conscience but bottom line if 777 00:34:37,110 --> 00:34:34,899 you want to be a good person if you want 778 00:34:42,450 --> 00:34:37,120 to do what's right you should be saying 779 00:34:49,409 --> 00:34:42,460 no to that yeah and you should also be 780 00:34:51,030 --> 00:34:49,419 reporting it yep so why aren't more 781 00:34:52,110 --> 00:34:51,040 women reporting it they're not reporting 782 00:34:55,139 --> 00:34:52,120 because they're concerned with their 783 00:34:57,150 --> 00:34:55,149 career right yeah but because they think 784 00:34:59,940 --> 00:34:57,160 because they think well okay 785 00:35:02,550 --> 00:34:59,950 you know what happens like in my 786 00:35:05,550 --> 00:35:02,560 situation number one I was young I was 787 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:05,560 naive but you find yourself in that 788 00:35:10,530 --> 00:35:07,930 situation you think well you know I was 789 00:35:12,390 --> 00:35:10,540 such an idiot that maybe I walked into 790 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:12,400 it and it was partially my fault because 791 00:35:19,470 --> 00:35:13,930 I allowed it to happen 792 00:35:23,700 --> 00:35:19,480 and and so that's why a lot of people 793 00:35:28,500 --> 00:35:23,710 don't don't report it because they kind 794 00:35:31,050 --> 00:35:28,510 of blame themselves as well and look the 795 00:35:35,190 --> 00:35:31,060 people that are predators they know how 796 00:35:36,510 --> 00:35:35,200 to play with people they know the road 797 00:35:39,390 --> 00:35:36,520 that they need to go down 798 00:35:41,100 --> 00:35:39,400 in order to get to this place but we 799 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:41,110 have society we really need to talk more 800 00:35:45,210 --> 00:35:43,330 openly about this because you said this 801 00:35:46,710 --> 00:35:45,220 is gonna go on forever and I think it 802 00:35:48,510 --> 00:35:46,720 doesn't necessarily have to go on 803 00:35:51,030 --> 00:35:48,520 forever maybe I'm being naive but in 804 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:51,040 order to at least slow it down two 805 00:35:56,190 --> 00:35:54,370 things need to happen men and let's just 806 00:35:57,960 --> 00:35:56,200 stick with men and women now just keep 807 00:36:01,710 --> 00:35:57,970 it simple we know it goes beyond that 808 00:36:04,500 --> 00:36:01,720 but men need to understand that you're 809 00:36:06,690 --> 00:36:04,510 being a piece of [\h__\h] you know what to 810 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:06,700 do this society looks down on you you're 811 00:36:11,190 --> 00:36:09,010 a freaking loser for engaging in this 812 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:11,200 kind of conduct and when we find out 813 00:36:14,990 --> 00:36:12,970 about it you're gonna be ostracized from 814 00:36:18,390 --> 00:36:15,000 the Hollywood community greater society 815 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:18,400 party maybe the greater society yeah 816 00:36:24,660 --> 00:36:21,570 yeah so men need to understand this 817 00:36:27,210 --> 00:36:24,670 you're gonna be ostracized we're gonna 818 00:36:33,030 --> 00:36:27,220 find out and you're a freakin a loser 819 00:36:35,970 --> 00:36:33,040 you are a loser women need to know that 820 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:35,980 by engaging in it you're actually no 821 00:36:46,260 --> 00:36:38,530 better than him when you engage in it 822 00:36:49,170 --> 00:36:46,270 and however if you're gonna say that you 823 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:49,180 know someone like Harvey Weinstein is a 824 00:36:55,260 --> 00:36:50,890 100% loser 825 00:36:59,700 --> 00:36:55,270 here's the gray area here's a loser who 826 00:37:02,010 --> 00:36:59,710 has made amazing films and this is 827 00:37:04,530 --> 00:37:02,020 different this is a thing imagine being 828 00:37:06,930 --> 00:37:04,540 somebody say you're not just an actor 829 00:37:09,420 --> 00:37:06,940 but you know say you're a writer or say 830 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:09,430 you're you're a new director or whatever 831 00:37:13,290 --> 00:37:11,770 and you know he's a scumbag you see him 832 00:37:16,050 --> 00:37:13,300 with all this these little you know 833 00:37:18,930 --> 00:37:16,060 wannabe starlets you know he's just come 834 00:37:20,970 --> 00:37:18,940 back however you think okay you know 835 00:37:23,250 --> 00:37:20,980 what I know he's just come back but I'm 836 00:37:25,140 --> 00:37:23,260 just gonna try and navigate around it 837 00:37:27,330 --> 00:37:25,150 and just deal with him only just a 838 00:37:30,060 --> 00:37:27,340 little bit so that I can get my project 839 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:30,070 move forward you know that's that's what 840 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:33,450 happens and so if we're saying it's not 841 00:37:39,810 --> 00:37:37,570 it's not as cut and dry as Harvey 842 00:37:41,610 --> 00:37:39,820 Weinstein's a scumbag the people that 843 00:37:44,190 --> 00:37:41,620 have sex with Harvey Weinstein are also 844 00:37:46,020 --> 00:37:44,200 scumbags and that's that it's not that 845 00:37:49,580 --> 00:37:46,030 simple because you have circles of 846 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:49,590 people around all of this that are 847 00:37:53,210 --> 00:37:51,690 willing to just think oh okay I don't 848 00:37:54,950 --> 00:37:53,220 really want to know about that because 849 00:37:58,250 --> 00:37:54,960 I'm just kind of continuing on my little 850 00:38:01,850 --> 00:37:58,260 path here you know I guess the point is 851 00:38:04,490 --> 00:38:01,860 unfortunately that's humanity we're 852 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:04,500 dealing with people that have power and 853 00:38:10,250 --> 00:38:06,330 money on one side and we're dealing with 854 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:10,260 people that want fame and recognition on 855 00:38:14,990 --> 00:38:12,210 the other and when you have those two 856 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:15,000 things and you have people that don't 857 00:38:22,370 --> 00:38:19,650 have a strong sense of morality and what 858 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:22,380 happened with that in our society right 859 00:38:26,810 --> 00:38:24,090 when you have people that don't have a 860 00:38:29,180 --> 00:38:26,820 strong sense of morality you think you 861 00:38:30,830 --> 00:38:29,190 know yeah well I sound like what you're 862 00:38:33,290 --> 00:38:30,840 saying is there's more people complicit 863 00:38:34,730 --> 00:38:33,300 in it than just the man and the woman 864 00:38:36,500 --> 00:38:34,740 which is certainly true certainly people 865 00:38:40,550 --> 00:38:36,510 working around the person protecting the 866 00:38:43,580 --> 00:38:40,560 person as I say I knew about Harvey 867 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:43,590 Weinstein back in around 2002 868 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:47,370 everybody knew no but I still don't feel 869 00:38:51,950 --> 00:38:49,170 like for me God 870 00:38:54,860 --> 00:38:51,960 she knew I'm sure she saw him with 871 00:38:57,470 --> 00:38:54,870 various little wannabe starlets and just 872 00:38:59,690 --> 00:38:57,480 thought oh god that's Harvey oh well you 873 00:39:01,010 --> 00:38:59,700 know but but but I don't know you're 874 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:01,020 kind of tossing your hands up at the 875 00:39:04,850 --> 00:39:02,850 situation a little bit more than I am 876 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:04,860 I'm concerned that this is going to be a 877 00:39:07,850 --> 00:39:06,690 blip it was in the news for a while and 878 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:07,860 then it's going to kind of Peter down 879 00:39:11,990 --> 00:39:09,450 and Holly was going to go back to the 880 00:39:14,900 --> 00:39:12,000 way it was and I'm saying that I think 881 00:39:17,810 --> 00:39:14,910 that it needs to be talked about more 882 00:39:21,140 --> 00:39:17,820 and I don't think it's as complicated as 883 00:39:23,030 --> 00:39:21,150 you do I think it's very clear that the 884 00:39:24,410 --> 00:39:23,040 guy shouldn't do it and the woman 885 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:24,420 shouldn't do it I hear a lot about 886 00:39:28,100 --> 00:39:26,130 people saying the guy shouldn't do it 887 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:28,110 and I think we need to shame them even 888 00:39:31,130 --> 00:39:29,850 more as part of my point of calling him 889 00:39:32,810 --> 00:39:31,140 a loser I don't care how many great 890 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:32,820 films you made you're a freakin a loser 891 00:39:38,390 --> 00:39:35,970 because you did this I'm being just 892 00:39:41,240 --> 00:39:38,400 paint the picture for you as to why you 893 00:39:43,340 --> 00:39:41,250 have not just you know the wannabe 894 00:39:45,110 --> 00:39:43,350 starlet that four or the writer or the 895 00:39:47,950 --> 00:39:45,120 director or whatever that wants to move 896 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:47,960 their career ahead I'm also saying that 897 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:50,130 there's a lot of people that are 898 00:39:54,950 --> 00:39:52,890 employed by these people you know it's 899 00:39:58,250 --> 00:39:54,960 their paycheck and things like that so 900 00:39:59,680 --> 00:39:58,260 where do you and I mean I would believe 901 00:40:02,530 --> 00:39:59,690 me I agree with 902 00:40:04,720 --> 00:40:02,540 I would love for this not to happen I 903 00:40:07,630 --> 00:40:04,730 would love for this not to happen and 904 00:40:10,059 --> 00:40:07,640 I'm gonna go back by saying the reason 905 00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:10,069 it is happening is that we have lost our 906 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:12,050 morality and we've lost our sense of 907 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:15,170 ethics until we go back to that until we 908 00:40:21,069 --> 00:40:18,650 understand that we need to embrace those 909 00:40:26,020 --> 00:40:21,079 things again and we need to actually 910 00:40:28,359 --> 00:40:26,030 care for our soul our eternal soul it's 911 00:40:31,180 --> 00:40:28,369 gonna continue and and I think that's 912 00:40:33,250 --> 00:40:31,190 the big reason why not just in America 913 00:40:35,950 --> 00:40:33,260 not just Hollywood not just in America 914 00:40:38,380 --> 00:40:35,960 but the whole of Western civilization 915 00:40:41,530 --> 00:40:38,390 the reason where Western civilization is 916 00:40:44,190 --> 00:40:41,540 crumbling and it is is because we have 917 00:40:47,380 --> 00:40:44,200 lost our sense of morality and ethics 918 00:40:50,230 --> 00:40:47,390 well the last thing I'd say specifically 919 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:50,240 on that issue is now going to the women 920 00:40:58,359 --> 00:40:54,970 who are actually abused so it's not them 921 00:40:59,500 --> 00:40:58,369 agreeing to engage in sex that they're 922 00:41:02,260 --> 00:40:59,510 actually sexually abuse actually 923 00:41:05,290 --> 00:41:02,270 assaulted and so on the movie bombshell 924 00:41:07,150 --> 00:41:05,300 which did you see bombshell so which is 925 00:41:11,230 --> 00:41:07,160 exactly what we're talking about Roger 926 00:41:14,530 --> 00:41:11,240 airs at Fox and and doing this with 927 00:41:17,290 --> 00:41:14,540 women at Fox and megyn kelly at one 928 00:41:20,559 --> 00:41:17,300 point in the movie you know acknowledges 929 00:41:23,140 --> 00:41:20,569 that yeah it happened to me so here's 930 00:41:25,450 --> 00:41:23,150 the most successful woman on Fox coming 931 00:41:27,460 --> 00:41:25,460 forward and saying that uh early in my 932 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:27,470 career same thing happened me and the 933 00:41:34,569 --> 00:41:30,770 Margot Robbie character basically looks 934 00:41:36,970 --> 00:41:34,579 at her and she's like thanks a lot why 935 00:41:40,150 --> 00:41:36,980 didn't you tell me why didn't you tell 936 00:41:43,809 --> 00:41:40,160 others you knew this and I'm like thank 937 00:41:47,079 --> 00:41:43,819 you great moment in the film where woman 938 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:47,089 B gets mad at woman a for not saying 939 00:41:49,540 --> 00:41:48,650 anything about it because it allowed it 940 00:41:51,910 --> 00:41:49,550 to happen to me 941 00:41:55,089 --> 00:41:51,920 so what do we have to say about women 942 00:41:56,260 --> 00:41:55,099 who are assaulted and don't come forward 943 00:41:58,240 --> 00:41:56,270 and do the right thing I know there's 944 00:42:00,130 --> 00:41:58,250 lots of excuses and I will never blame 945 00:42:01,930 --> 00:42:00,140 the victim and there's lots of excuses 946 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:01,940 for not coming forward but shouldn't we 947 00:42:06,130 --> 00:42:05,690 be encouraging women come forward yes we 948 00:42:13,240 --> 00:42:06,140 should 949 00:42:16,090 --> 00:42:13,250 because during this lockdown 950 00:42:18,220 --> 00:42:16,100 our economy's gonna do well god knows 951 00:42:21,220 --> 00:42:18,230 what it's gonna do I mean it's gonna be 952 00:42:23,980 --> 00:42:21,230 a massive reset and there's a lot of 953 00:42:27,490 --> 00:42:23,990 changes going on in Hollywood in the 954 00:42:31,210 --> 00:42:27,500 industry in general with regard to our 955 00:42:35,050 --> 00:42:31,220 technology and ways for people to view 956 00:42:37,780 --> 00:42:35,060 film and things like that that I think 957 00:42:39,850 --> 00:42:37,790 the traditional Hollywood model as much 958 00:42:42,340 --> 00:42:39,860 as all the people at the top want to 959 00:42:47,230 --> 00:42:42,350 hang on to it I think it's gonna start 960 00:42:51,190 --> 00:42:47,240 to crumble actually and so right now is 961 00:42:55,090 --> 00:42:51,200 when people should come forward they 962 00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:55,100 should come forward yeah sorry I when I 963 00:43:03,070 --> 00:42:57,650 when I came out as a conservative I knew 964 00:43:05,260 --> 00:43:03,080 that I was playing with my career but 965 00:43:06,850 --> 00:43:05,270 the bulk of my career I'm kind of a 966 00:43:10,870 --> 00:43:06,860 strange case because the bulk of my 967 00:43:12,850 --> 00:43:10,880 career was in the UK I had a much I had 968 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:12,860 a much better career in the UK and so 969 00:43:18,220 --> 00:43:15,050 when I moved here I was competing with 970 00:43:20,740 --> 00:43:18,230 other actresses that had a long list of 971 00:43:22,870 --> 00:43:20,750 American credits American Network 972 00:43:26,650 --> 00:43:22,880 credits and all of my credits were 973 00:43:28,230 --> 00:43:26,660 English I mean so really I mean I would 974 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:28,240 have been better off if I had come here 975 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:32,210 changed my name and completely decided 976 00:43:38,410 --> 00:43:35,450 that I was an English person and then my 977 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:38,420 entire career probably could have been 978 00:43:41,410 --> 00:43:39,050 different 979 00:43:43,690 --> 00:43:41,420 hey you're still young you're still 980 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:43,700 young yeah you know but you know so 981 00:43:48,870 --> 00:43:46,490 anyway so I was not in as much of a 982 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:48,880 precarious position as some people 983 00:43:54,100 --> 00:43:52,010 coming out but I I do have a sense of 984 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:54,110 ethics and morality and the respect that 985 00:44:00,130 --> 00:43:56,810 I thought you know it's not right what's 986 00:44:02,890 --> 00:44:00,140 going on and and so that's why I came 987 00:44:05,230 --> 00:44:02,900 out as conservatives I just I saw what 988 00:44:07,930 --> 00:44:05,240 was

--> 00:46:53,089 up at the hotel where I was living 1039 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:55,039 because you know a lot of models live in 1040 00:46:59,349 --> 00:46:56,210 these kind of like week-to-week 1041 00:47:01,599 --> 00:46:59,359 hotels while you're there and he said oh 1042 00:47:03,730 --> 00:47:01,609 you know I just want to go over to my 1043 00:47:06,099 --> 00:47:03,740 friends house cuz

drive over there and I remember meeting 1047 00:47:15,940 --> 00:47:14,210 well it's very interesting because when 1048 00:47:18,370 --> 00:47:15,950 I found out that Epstein had an 1049 00:47:21,940 --> 00:47:18,380 apartment in Paris I thought hmm I 1050 00:47:23,170 --> 00:47:21,950 looked up his apartment and 1051 00:47:24,670 --> 00:47:23,180 remember there were certain things I 1052 00:47:26,950 --> 00:47:24,680 remembered about this apartment they 1053 00:47:28,599 --> 00:47:26,960 were you know where it was in Paris I 1054 00:47:30,339 --> 00:47:28,609 knew where it was in relation to the Arc 1055 00:47:32,589 --> 00:47:30,349 de Triomphe it was kind of near there 1056 00:47:35,190 --> 00:47:32,599 I remembered parking on the street there 1057 00:47:38,319 --> 00:47:35,200 was a hedge and then there was a kind of 1058 00:47:42,190 --> 00:47:38,329 grassy bit before it was the actual 1059 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:42,200 building was set back and I remember 1060 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:46,490 meeting a guy who was from New York he 1061 00:47:50,410 --> 00:47:48,290 was a businessman he was 1062 00:47:54,690 --> 00:47:50,420 kind of attractive but I remembered he 1063 00:47:57,640 --> 00:47:54,700 had this kind of oversized jaw right and 1064 00:48:00,010 --> 00:47:57,650 you know he had the model staying in one 1065 00:48:02,460 --> 00:48:00,020 of his rooms you know they were just 1066 00:48:05,770 --> 00:48:02,470 sleeping in mattresses on the floor 1067 00:48:08,410 --> 00:48:05,780 typical kind of model situation for 1068 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:08,420 models that travel all the time and you 1069 00:48:11,589 --> 00:48:10,010 know we just out there for about a half 1070 00:48:13,060 --> 00:48:11,599 an hour while the girls decided whether 1071 00:48:15,490 --> 00:48:13,070 they were going to come or not had an 1072 00:48:16,930 --> 00:48:15,500 inane conversation I remember shaking 1073 00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:16,940 his hand he had this really soft 1074 00:48:25,240 --> 00:48:21,770 handshake and I remember seeing the 1075 00:48:26,620 --> 00:48:25,250 apartment was not fully kitted out as if 1076 00:48:28,329 --> 00:48:26,630 somebody lived there all the time it 1077 00:48:30,819 --> 00:48:28,339 looked like a part-time situation and I 1078 00:48:32,859 --> 00:48:30,829 guarantee you at times that he was there 1079 00:48:34,359 --> 00:48:32,869 was in the summertime now if you were to 1080 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:34,369 ask me why was he there in the 1081 00:48:39,849 --> 00:48:36,890 summertime because the summertime is 1082 00:48:42,579 --> 00:48:39,859 when all the youngest girls are off 1083 00:48:45,790 --> 00:48:42,589 school and they come to Paris and they 1084 00:48:48,490 --> 00:48:45,800 come to Milan to try and get more tear 1085 00:48:51,609 --> 00:48:48,500 sheets for their book right so those are 1086 00:48:53,260 --> 00:48:51,619 the ones that he's targeting and he set 1087 00:48:54,970 --> 00:48:53,270 it up like a models apartment it sounds 1088 00:48:58,450 --> 00:48:54,980 likely he was allowing models to live in 1089 00:49:00,579 --> 00:48:58,460 his apartment right right so he 1090 00:49:02,980 --> 00:49:00,589 surrounded himself in the in the fashion 1091 00:49:06,910 --> 00:49:02,990 industry for that reason and I'm sure he 1092 00:49:09,250 --> 00:49:06,920 was most active in the summertime so he 1093 00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:09,260 struck you as extremely creepy or only 1094 00:49:14,710 --> 00:49:12,890 kind of creepy no just just I wasn't I 1095 00:49:21,370 --> 00:49:14,720 wasn't really sure what to make of him 1096 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:21,380 he was he was so casual like he was very 1097 00:49:26,050 --> 00:49:24,290 kind of how can I describe his okay well 1098 00:49:29,260 --> 00:49:26,060 you see what I'm like I'm quite animated 1099 00:49:35,230 --> 00:49:29,270 and you know I have a lot of energy he 1100 00:49:39,990 --> 00:49:35,240 was very very low-key 1101 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:40,000 very low-key very very casual was really 1102 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:44,450 really low-key calm and when you see you 1103 00:49:49,420 --> 00:49:47,090 know some of the interviews with him he 1104 00:49:53,260 --> 00:49:49,430 seemed that way too you know just very 1105 00:49:55,710 --> 00:49:53,270 kind of did you did you have any other 1106 00:50:00,220 --> 00:49:55,720 stories that you heard about him from 1107 00:50:02,470 --> 00:50:00,230 model friends I mean III mean this only 1108 00:50:04,030 --> 00:50:02,480 dawned on me recently and I kind of put 1109 00:50:07,210 --> 00:50:04,040 all my memories together and I thought 1110 00:50:11,170 --> 00:50:07,220 oh my god I've met the guy I met the

industry is 1152 00:52:01,540 --> 00:51:58,910 something that really has kind of 1153 00:52:03,970 --> 00:52:01,550 escaped a lot of attention thus far it's 1154 00:52:06,849 --> 00:52:03,980 been mostly about about acting I want to 1155 00:52:08,740 --> 00:52:06,859 ask you one more and then get into Eyes 1156 00:52:11,260 --> 00:52:08,750 Wide Shut if you don't mind I am a big 1157 00:52:12,730 --> 00:52:11,270 fan of the movie and I hope it doesn't 1158 00:52:20,890 --> 00:52:12,740 make you uncomfortable that I've seen 1159 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:20,900 you naked but but but speaking of the 1160 00:52:27,070 --> 00:52:21,650 closet 1161 00:52:29,260 --> 00:52:27,080 as gays and what I complain about is 1162 00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:29,270 Hollywood likes to portray itself as 1163 00:52:33,660 --> 00:52:31,130 being so forward thinking and advanced 1164 00:52:37,270 --> 00:52:33,670 and liberal and open-minded and so on 1165 00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:37,280 yet you have all these gays in the 1166 00:52:42,070 --> 00:52:39,170 closet I'm like you know if one of these 1167 00:52:43,300 --> 00:52:42,080 high-profile people would come out I 1168 00:52:47,260 --> 00:52:43,310 mean they mouth through it and there's 1169 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:47,270 been a small handful of them but what 1170 00:52:51,220 --> 00:52:48,890 would advance the interests of 1171 00:52:54,430 --> 00:52:51,230 open-mindedness and love and respect for 1172 00:52:58,000 --> 00:52:54,440 gays I don't really understand why 1173 00:53:01,210 --> 00:52:58,010 anybody who's gay in Hollywood has any 1174 00:53:03,250 --> 00:53:01,220 issue whatsoever with coming out in fact 1175 00:53:06,660 --> 00:53:03,260 the opposite would if they came out 1176 00:53:09,390 --> 00:53:06,670 being gay they would be so celebrated I 1177 00:53:11,859 --> 00:53:09,400 mean it would be completely the opposite 1178 00:53:14,410 --> 00:53:11,869 it's like if you're if you're if you're 1179 00:53:16,450 --> 00:53:14,420 gay or you're trans or there's something 1180 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:16,460 else that's kind of different about you 1181 00:53:21,490 --> 00:53:18,890 you're celebrated

not and I'm not saying that from 1190 00:53:49,060 --> 00:53:46,280 a position of oh look at me you know I 1191 00:53:51,609 --> 00:53:49,070 know the way I check off is I'm gonna 1192 00:53:53,830 --> 00:53:51,619 make my own way regardless yeah I took 1193 00:53:56,500 --> 00:53:53,840 off a lot of the same boxes except I'm 1194 00:53:59,950 --> 00:53:56,510 half-italian so I have that going from 1195 00:54:00,940 --> 00:53:59,960 oh I see only the only little teeny 1196 00:54:02,980 --> 00:54:00,950 thing I have going 1197 00:54:04,540 --> 00:54:02,990 for me is I'm part Native American my 1198 00:54:07,270 --> 00:54:04,550 mother belonged to the Yankton Sioux 1199 00:54:10,060 --> 00:54:07,280 tribe oh we all have like 0.1% of a 1200 00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:10,070 native man my mother was a legal member 1201 00:54:16,620 --> 00:54:12,530 okay yeah my grandmother was born on the 1202 00:54:19,780 --> 00:54:16,630 reservation well the theory is that 1203 00:54:22,089 --> 00:54:19,790 internationally these stars feel like 1204 00:54:24,700 --> 00:54:22,099 they would not do well America become 1205 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:24,710 pretty open-minded toward gay obviously 1206 00:54:30,970 --> 00:54:28,690 and so is Europe but Middle East Asia 1207 00:54:34,599 --> 00:54:30,980 even you know Eastern Europe Russia 1208 00:54:36,819 --> 00:54:34,609 example as an example Ukraine etc are 1209 00:54:38,890 --> 00:54:36,829 not near as open-minded about gay as we 1210 00:54:41,980 --> 00:54:38,900 are so there there international box 1211 00:54:44,349 --> 00:54:41,990 office would be affected yeah 1212 00:54:46,720 --> 00:54:44,359 that's the point that's the point don't 1213 00:54:49,240 --> 00:54:46,730 you know isn't it how they are so 1214 00:54:51,339 --> 00:54:49,250 supportive of those things right well 1215 00:54:53,349 --> 00:54:51,349 and interesting how it comes don't you 1216 00:54:56,650 --> 00:54:53,359 find it interesting interesting that 1217 00:55:00,130 --> 00:54:56,660 they don't really like the idea of 1218 00:55:01,150 --> 00:55:00,140 conservatives yet you've got an 1219 00:55:03,490 --> 00:55:01,160 incredible 1220 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:03,500 you've got incredibly oppressive regimes 1221 00:55:11,589 --> 00:55:08,210 in Islamic regime regimes and also in 1222 00:55:14,980 --> 00:55:11,599 the communist regime of China and yet 1223 00:55:17,829 --> 00:55:14,990 you can't say anything against China 1224 00:55:20,530 --> 00:55:17,839 because China again goes right back to 1225 00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:20,540 it gives brings them big money and 1226 00:55:24,010 --> 00:55:22,490 because they bring them big money they 1227 00:55:26,859 --> 00:55:24,020 shut their mouths and they toe the line 1228 00:55:28,210 --> 00:55:26,869 and I think that's disgusting yeah well 1229 00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:28,220 that's the Hollywood hypocrisy that 1230 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:29,450 we're talking about and at the end of 1231 00:55:32,109 --> 00:55:30,770 the day it's about money and I think the 1232 00:55:33,940 --> 00:55:32,119 same thing relates to the gay issue I 1233 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:33,950 think the right thing to do without 1234 00:55:38,500 --> 00:55:36,650 question is for these actors especially 1235 00:55:41,140 --> 00:55:38,510 the high-profile ones to come out of the 1236 00:55:43,030 --> 00:55:41,150 closet because a it's just being honest 1237 00:55:44,890 --> 00:55:43,040 be it's a it's demonstrating that 1238 00:55:46,329 --> 00:55:44,900 there's nothing there's no shame in this 1239 00:55:48,609 --> 00:55:46,339 there's nothing wrong with it 1240 00:55:50,950 --> 00:55:48,619 and as far as you shouldn't be 1241 00:55:54,579 --> 00:55:50,960 discriminated against based upon it and 1242 00:55:56,890 --> 00:55:54,589 they would be very helpful to two people 1243 00:55:59,050 --> 00:55:56,900 out there that I'm just gonna say in the 1244 00:56:01,450 --> 00:55:59,060 West this is the thing that bothers me 1245 00:56:03,490 --> 00:56:01,460 about the left is that they think that 1246 00:56:06,670 --> 00:56:03,500 they're being discriminated for being 1247 00:56:09,010 --> 00:56:06,680 gay and they aren't I mean you people 1248 00:56:12,910 --> 00:56:09,020 are not discriminated for being gay in 1249 00:56:14,060 --> 00:56:12,920 the West anymore anymore and but I think 1250 00:56:16,340 --> 00:56:14,070 that people on the left 1251 00:56:20,270 --> 00:56:16,350 loves being a victim they just love 1252 00:56:22,190 --> 00:56:20,280 embracing it well they love the 1253 00:56:26,030 --> 00:56:22,200 narrative that well and this is what I 1254 00:56:27,950 --> 00:56:26,040 heard about one gay celebrity that well 1255 00:56:30,770 --> 00:56:27,960 but in in the middle of the country 1256 00:56:33,050 --> 00:56:30,780 they're not accepting so you know on the 1257 00:56:34,580 --> 00:56:33,060 coasts we're okay but I can't come out 1258 00:56:36,260 --> 00:56:34,590 of the closet because of the middle of 1259 00:56:38,930 --> 00:56:36,270 the country which i think is absolutely 1260 00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:38,940 not true most of the people in Hollywood 1261 00:56:43,490 --> 00:56:41,370 don't give one toss about the middle of 1262 00:56:45,500 --> 00:56:43,500 the country yeah the middle of the 1263 00:56:47,270 --> 00:56:45,510 country is more forward-thinking than 1264 00:56:49,820 --> 00:56:47,280 they realized the only problem is they 1265 00:56:53,620 --> 00:56:49,830 do have perhaps more traditional values 1266 00:56:55,970 --> 00:56:53,630 but they're very much for the same no 1267 00:56:57,980 --> 00:56:55,980 because it's the middle of the country 1268 00:57:03,590 --> 00:56:57,990 you know when my husband and I moved 1269 00:57:07,370 --> 00:57:03,600 here from the UK we saw America as the 1270 00:57:12,830 --> 00:57:07,380 last hope for for Humanity for Western 1271 00:57:14,210 --> 00:57:12,840 civilization for freedom and I look at 1272 00:57:15,590 --> 00:57:14,220 the people in the middle of the country 1273 00:57:19,070 --> 00:57:15,600 and I look at the people in the south 1274 00:57:21,050 --> 00:57:19,080 the ones that all the arrogant people on 1275 00:57:24,580 --> 00:57:21,060 the coast say oh you know they're just a 1276 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:24,590 bunch of bigoted racist you know 1277 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:27,930 Christians they say seething as they say 1278 00:57:33,380 --> 00:57:31,770 the word and and my mind the thing I 1279 00:57:35,300 --> 00:57:33,390 would like to say back to those people I 1280 00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:35,310 said yeah well it's those people that 1281 00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:37,890 will save this country it's those people 1282 00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:40,410 that will save Western civilization 1283 00:57:45,350 --> 00:57:43,530 so I even though I am firmly a coastal 1284 00:57:47,150 --> 00:57:45,360 person obviously I mean I've never lived 1285 00:57:49,190 --> 00:57:47,160 in the middle of the country but I am in 1286 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:49,200 full support of those people because 1287 00:57:54,710 --> 00:57:52,290 those people are true patriots yeah and 1288 00:57:57,170 --> 00:57:54,720 I think they're far more accepting than 1289 00:58:00,110 --> 00:57:57,180 they get credit for Elton John does 1290 00:58:02,660 --> 00:58:00,120 packs arenas all over there he does just 1291 00:58:04,340 --> 00:58:02,670 fine so I think so 1292 00:58:06,050 --> 00:58:04,350 so speaking of actors in the closet 1293 00:58:08,450 --> 00:58:06,060 let's move to Eyes Wide Shut and Tom 1294 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:08,460 Cruise okay you got to work directly 1295 00:58:13,190 --> 00:58:11,970 with Tom which is amazing my theory is 1296 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:13,200 that he's in the closet if you want to 1297 00:58:21,650 --> 00:58:14,850 share your theory about that you're 1298 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:21,660 welcome to do that I don't know honestly 1299 00:58:28,210 --> 00:58:24,570 I don't know I mean at one point I'll 1300 00:58:30,950 --> 00:58:28,220 just share a little kind of anecdote 1301 00:58:33,349 --> 00:58:30,960 the first day that we were filming we 1302 00:58:36,020 --> 00:58:33,359 were doing the bathroom scene and I'm 1303 00:58:38,450 --> 00:58:36,030 kind of yeah we were you know we had 1304 00:58:39,859 --> 00:58:38,460 just cut or we were in between shots or 1305 00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:39,869 whatever and it's before they brought a 1306 00:58:43,700 --> 00:58:41,730 towel over because I would get it you 1307 00:58:45,589 --> 00:58:43,710 know and Tom was very respectful about 1308 00:58:47,390 --> 00:58:45,599 that you know if they didn't bring the 1309 00:58:48,950 --> 00:58:47,400 towel over to cover me up Tom would say 1310 00:58:50,779 --> 00:58:48,960 hey can you bring your towel over you 1311 00:58:52,579 --> 00:58:50,789 know cuz he sense that I'm like look 1312 00:58:54,829 --> 00:58:52,589 we're not filming do I need to really be 1313 00:58:57,349 --> 00:58:54,839 you know you see I told you I told you 1314 00:58:59,240 --> 00:58:57,359 is gay no straight man no straight man 1315 00:59:00,160 --> 00:58:59,250 would say get a towel on this woman okay 1316 00:59:02,450 --> 00:59:00,170 but hang on 1317 00:59:06,620 --> 00:59:02,460 no I think he was being respectful but 1318 00:59:08,569 --> 00:59:06,630 okay so at one point Sydney and Tom I 1319 00:59:11,870 --> 00:59:08,579 can't member who was on which side we're 1320 00:59:15,470 --> 00:59:11,880 standing there and I'm you know as I am 1321 00:59:18,470 --> 00:59:15,480 in all my glory and they're standing 1322 00:59:21,660 --> 00:59:18,480 over me and Tom what's down and then he 1323 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:21,670 looks at Sydney Gus I love my job 1324 00:59:29,150 --> 00:59:24,770 [Laughter] 1325 00:59:31,370 --> 00:59:29,160 yeah he was in funny um you know and I'm 1326 00:59:34,309 --> 00:59:31,380 sure we've all heard the stories the 1327 00:59:36,740 --> 00:59:34,319 stories about Oh a friend of a friend of 1328 00:59:38,660 --> 00:59:36,750 mine said that he's a rent boy and he 1329 00:59:41,710 --> 00:59:38,670 went off with Tom and think now there's 1330 00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:41,720 all kinds of crazy stories that you hear 1331 00:59:47,990 --> 00:59:45,930 supposedly about Tom but you're gonna 1332 00:59:51,250 --> 00:59:48,000 hear that about I mean you hear stories 1333 00:59:53,660 --> 00:59:51,260 about every celebrity there's always 1334 00:59:55,940 --> 00:59:53,670 different ideas and the bigger celebrity 1335 00:59:59,000 --> 00:59:55,950 you are the more stories there are 1336 01:00:04,010 --> 00:59:59,010 floating around just to give an example 1337 01:00:08,150 --> 01:00:04,020 the gay thing aside we were filming we 1338 01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:08,160 had broke and my father said oh we heard 1339 01:00:13,370 --> 01:00:10,770 that tom was buying property over 1340 01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:13,380 somewhere in the kind of Palo Alto area 1341 01:00:19,250 --> 01:00:16,130 because my father lived in that area and 1342 01:00:21,170 --> 01:00:19,260 so when when we came back to set I said 1343 01:00:23,599 --> 01:00:21,180 hey Tom I said are you guys buying 1344 01:00:25,309 --> 01:00:23,609 property out and like over kind of you 1345 01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:25,319 know just south of San Francisco Palo 1346 01:00:30,700 --> 01:00:27,930 Alto Hillsborough every area and he 1347 01:00:35,210 --> 01:00:30,710 looked at me and he said no and he said 1348 01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:35,220 if I had a penny for every false thing 1349 01:00:40,130 --> 01:00:37,410 that has been said about me he goes I 1350 01:00:41,660 --> 01:00:40,140 would be so much richer than I already 1351 01:00:43,339 --> 01:00:41,670 am yeah 1352 01:00:44,780 --> 01:00:43,349 well what I what I've always found odd 1353 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:44,790 though is how he would file these 1354 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:48,210 lawsuits against people who would accuse 1355 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:49,890 him of being gay and I'm kind of like if 1356 01:00:54,859 --> 01:00:52,650 I'm a straight guy killing it with the 1357 01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:54,869 ladies because I'm Tom Cruise and 1358 01:00:58,520 --> 01:00:56,490 somebody writes a story that I'm gay I 1359 01:01:00,829 --> 01:00:58,530 would just I think I would just laugh 1360 01:01:03,349 --> 01:01:00,839 about it you know so I find that a 1361 01:01:07,069 --> 01:01:03,359 little odd that he it comes across he 1362 01:01:10,460 --> 01:01:07,079 does protest too much I mean I think 1363 01:01:12,559 --> 01:01:10,470 that in in those respects I I mean I'm 1364 01:01:15,380 --> 01:01:12,569 just guessing here I reckon he just 1365 01:01:19,370 --> 01:01:15,390 takes himself seriously and he wants the 1366 01:01:21,620 --> 01:01:19,380 press to take him seriously yeah I mean 1367 01:01:24,740 --> 01:01:21,630 I'm just gonna be frank until I see him 1368 01:01:26,990 --> 01:01:24,750 in flagrante with some other dude I'm 1369 01:01:28,910 --> 01:01:27,000 I'm not gonna say yea or nay because I 1370 01:01:30,710 --> 01:01:28,920 don't know and I mean there's some 1371 01:01:32,089 --> 01:01:30,720 people that you think oh he's definitely 1372 01:01:33,349 --> 01:01:32,099 gay and then you see him with a 1373 01:01:36,170 --> 01:01:33,359 girlfriend you're thinking what the hell 1374 01:01:39,109 --> 01:01:36,180 you know advice for vice versa 1375 01:01:41,630 --> 01:01:39,119 so so yes I just don't assume I didn't 1376 01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:41,640 have any indication when we were working 1377 01:01:46,069 --> 01:01:43,530 together I mean there was no kind of 1378 01:01:49,910 --> 01:01:46,079 frist song between us really I mean I 1379 01:01:53,859 --> 01:01:49,920 didn't really he's a bit kind of to sort 1380 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:53,869 of how can I explain kind of to sort of 1381 01:01:59,089 --> 01:01:56,490 goody two-shoes kind of all-american 1382 01:02:01,220 --> 01:01:59,099 doesn't really have an edge about him so 1383 01:02:05,390 --> 01:02:01,230 I he's not really somebody that I would 1384 01:02:07,460 --> 01:02:05,400 fancy you know so there wasn't really 1385 01:02:10,069 --> 01:02:07,470 that sort of wrist force on between us 1386 01:02:12,740 --> 01:02:10,079 but we got along great and I will say I 1387 01:02:15,020 --> 01:02:12,750 I think he's great he's so professional 1388 01:02:19,010 --> 01:02:15,030 he's a great actor I would I work with 1389 01:02:21,500 --> 01:02:19,020 him again in a millisecond so it was 1390 01:02:23,359 --> 01:02:21,510 good things to say about him on set so I 1391 01:02:26,900 --> 01:02:23,369 mean you had a you know once in a 1392 01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:26,910 lifetime experience to you know for any 1393 01:02:30,890 --> 01:02:28,890 actress to be able to work with Tom 1394 01:02:33,349 --> 01:02:30,900 Cruise who's gonna go down as one of the 1395 01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:33,359 greatest and most successful actors of 1396 01:02:36,559 --> 01:02:35,010 all time and then also to have worked 1397 01:02:37,910 --> 01:02:36,569 with Stanley Kubrick and which the same 1398 01:02:40,520 --> 01:02:37,920 thing can be said about him as a 1399 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:40,530 director so I just love to get your take 1400 01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:42,690 on both of them so before we moved to 1401 01:02:49,250 --> 01:02:46,410 Stanley to finish with Tom what what can 1402 01:02:51,140 --> 01:02:49,260 you tell everyone for all the people who 1403 01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:51,150 haven't worked with Tom Cruise on a 1404 01:02:54,890 --> 01:02:53,970 movie and shot a couple very significant 1405 01:02:57,680 --> 01:02:54,900 scenes in 1406 01:02:59,060 --> 01:02:57,690 you know you know very important 1407 01:03:02,270 --> 01:02:59,070 impressive movie the last understanding 1408 01:03:03,410 --> 01:03:02,280 Kubrick's career yeah what kind of what 1409 01:03:05,180 --> 01:03:03,420 can you tell us about what it was like 1410 01:03:09,290 --> 01:03:05,190 working with Tom Cruise as an actor or 1411 01:03:13,700 --> 01:03:09,300 any other anecdotes I didn't find him to 1412 01:03:17,210 --> 01:03:13,710 be a prima donna I found him to still 1413 01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:17,220 give 100% even if the camera was not on 1414 01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:20,490 him so that my performance was good 1415 01:03:26,300 --> 01:03:23,130 he was just a hundred percent 1416 01:03:29,690 --> 01:03:26,310 professional he was absolutely committed 1417 01:03:31,580 --> 01:03:29,700 and earnest and he was friendly he was 1418 01:03:36,410 --> 01:03:31,590 friendly to everybody who's friendly to 1419 01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:36,420 the crew I mean III mean I hate to say 1420 01:03:40,310 --> 01:03:38,010 it I know that sounds boring but I don't 1421 01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:40,320 have anything bad to say about the guy I 1422 01:03:45,140 --> 01:03:42,930 think he's just stellar 1423 01:03:46,100 --> 01:03:45,150 that's why I would work with him again 1424 01:03:49,010 --> 01:03:46,110 in a second 1425 01:03:50,930 --> 01:03:49,020 there was I didn't get any trace of ego 1426 01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:50,940 from that guy and I know we've heard 1427 01:03:55,940 --> 01:03:53,610 stuff like Oh had to have some special 1428 01:03:57,710 --> 01:03:55,950 tunnel made from his dressing room to 1429 01:04:01,610 --> 01:03:57,720 set when he was doing Mission Impossible 1430 01:04:05,180 --> 01:04:01,620 I didn't see it that sounded like BS to 1431 01:04:07,250 --> 01:04:05,190 me he really did and during these couple 1432 01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:07,260 very big scenes which were shot over how 1433 01:04:16,430 --> 01:04:10,170 many total days did you shoot oh I don't 1434 01:04:18,500 --> 01:04:16,440 know I mean I was we between rehearsal 1435 01:04:20,470 --> 01:04:18,510 and shooting I mean it was easily two 1436 01:04:23,570 --> 01:04:20,480 three months but I was paid for eight 1437 01:04:24,860 --> 01:04:23,580 paid for eight months Wow 1438 01:04:26,900 --> 01:04:24,870 but really when you watch the film 1439 01:04:28,940 --> 01:04:26,910 there's really just two major scenes 1440 01:04:30,980 --> 01:04:28,950 that you're in you're right you did a 1441 01:04:33,530 --> 01:04:30,990 lot one though and I was in but I was 1442 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:33,540 also in the orgy scenes that not the 1443 01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:35,370 orgy scenes I was in the ritual scenes 1444 01:04:40,790 --> 01:04:38,130 of the 12 girls in the circle and all of 1445 01:04:43,430 --> 01:04:40,800 that the only ones I wasn't in were the 1446 01:04:45,110 --> 01:04:43,440 actual orgy scene what about what did 1447 01:04:48,830 --> 01:04:45,120 you observe as far as communication 1448 01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:48,840 between Cruz and Kubrick so that was 1449 01:04:55,370 --> 01:04:50,690 very interesting 1450 01:04:59,540 --> 01:04:55,380 tom was extremely respectful to Stanley 1451 01:05:01,550 --> 01:04:59,550 and so there would be moments where you 1452 01:05:04,460 --> 01:05:01,560 know maybe we were shooting or we cut 1453 01:05:07,550 --> 01:05:04,470 and we were about to shoot again you 1454 01:05:08,390 --> 01:05:07,560 know do another take and Tom would sort 1455 01:05:09,830 --> 01:05:08,400 of pause 1456 01:05:11,450 --> 01:05:09,840 and just and look at Stanley and just 1457 01:05:14,870 --> 01:05:11,460 say hey Stanley can I talk to you for a 1458 01:05:18,980 --> 01:05:14,880 second and so everything would stop they 1459 01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:18,990 would leave set and go somewhere for you 1460 01:05:24,290 --> 01:05:21,570 know a minute two minutes five minutes 1461 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:24,300 not really longer than that have 1462 01:05:27,860 --> 01:05:25,770 whatever conversation they were gonna 1463 01:05:30,140 --> 01:05:27,870 have and then they would come back 1464 01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:30,150 nothing was said and then they would 1465 01:05:36,580 --> 01:05:33,090 begin again and that did happen a number 1466 01:05:42,620 --> 01:05:36,590 of times but at no point did Tom 1467 01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:42,630 question anything or say well except for 1468 01:05:49,700 --> 01:05:45,810 the fact the the bathroom scene that we 1469 01:05:51,410 --> 01:05:49,710 shot we the three of us Tom and Sidney 1470 01:05:55,790 --> 01:05:51,420 and I kind of rewrote that scene 1471 01:05:58,910 --> 01:05:55,800 together um it kind of all started with 1472 01:06:00,860 --> 01:05:58,920 I think I said one word I said better 1473 01:06:03,380 --> 01:06:00,870 you know Oh Mandy how are you feeling 1474 01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:03,390 better well let me let me set the scene 1475 01:06:06,740 --> 01:06:05,370 I think most people listening or 1476 01:06:09,620 --> 01:06:06,750 watching a scene in the movie but just 1477 01:06:12,310 --> 01:06:09,630 to set the scene he's at a big party 1478 01:06:14,810 --> 01:06:12,320 toward the beginning of the movie and 1479 01:06:18,710 --> 01:06:14,820 Sydney [\h__\h] is the one who invited 1480 01:06:20,900 --> 01:06:18,720 him and then Tom gets called up because 1481 01:06:22,610 --> 01:06:20,910 Sydney [\h__\h] character wants to talk 1482 01:06:24,230 --> 01:06:22,620 to him about something he comes in and 1483 01:06:25,340 --> 01:06:24,240 he was having sex with a prostitute up 1484 01:06:28,070 --> 01:06:25,350 there despite the fact that his wife is 1485 01:06:30,110 --> 01:06:28,080 down at the party he had snuck up he's 1486 01:06:32,540 --> 01:06:30,120 having sex with a prostitute but she has 1487 01:06:34,850 --> 01:06:32,550 overdosed on a speedball a mix of heroin 1488 01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:34,860 and cocaine and Tom has been brought in 1489 01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:38,490 as a doctor to try to resuscitate you or 1490 01:06:43,100 --> 01:06:40,770 find out what what the issue is now but 1491 01:06:45,830 --> 01:06:43,110 that was actually in a room that wasn't 1492 01:06:46,820 --> 01:06:45,840 the bathroom right no that wasn't that 1493 01:06:49,430 --> 01:06:46,830 was in the bathroom 1494 01:06:50,780 --> 01:06:49,440 okay okay some reason I thought it was a 1495 01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:50,790 regular room but maybe was just a super 1496 01:06:54,740 --> 01:06:52,890 nice bathroom in that same bathroom and 1497 01:06:57,430 --> 01:06:54,750 then when I come to where I've got the 1498 01:07:04,490 --> 01:06:57,440 towel on me is you know when I 1499 01:07:06,620 --> 01:07:04,500 supposedly been resuscitated well you're 1500 01:07:08,660 --> 01:07:06,630 talking about how you get anyway so in 1501 01:07:11,660 --> 01:07:08,670 that scene where I'm you know I'm kind 1502 01:07:13,520 --> 01:07:11,670 of a bit more awake and he says how are 1503 01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:13,530 you you know how are you feeling now 1504 01:07:21,890 --> 01:07:17,850 Mandy I just yeah I remember the script 1505 01:07:24,260 --> 01:07:21,900 said something like better and I said I 1506 01:07:25,940 --> 01:07:24,270 - Stanley I said you know I feel like I 1507 01:07:28,279 --> 01:07:25,950 want to do this and I can't remember the 1508 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:28,289 details of who said what or how we did 1509 01:07:33,650 --> 01:07:31,890 things but I remember saying you know 1510 01:07:34,549 --> 01:07:33,660 I'm feeling like I want to do this or 1511 01:07:38,990 --> 01:07:34,559 say this 1512 01:07:41,120 --> 01:07:39,000 and Stanley goes okay say that and then 1513 01:07:42,769 --> 01:07:41,130 Tom would say well you know if she's 1514 01:07:44,839 --> 01:07:42,779 going to do that maybe I should do this 1515 01:07:46,309 --> 01:07:44,849 and then Sidney would say well you know 1516 01:07:48,349 --> 01:07:46,319 if you guys are gonna do that well what 1517 01:07:51,109 --> 01:07:48,359 if I did this and we pretty much kind of 1518 01:07:55,039 --> 01:07:51,119 we broke that whole scene together and 1519 01:07:56,750 --> 01:07:55,049 you know they have the script girl you 1520 01:07:59,809 --> 01:07:56,760 know just kind of writing everything in 1521 01:08:01,819 --> 01:07:59,819 as we were doing it and and Stanley was 1522 01:08:04,010 --> 01:08:01,829 pretty almost like yeah okay let's try 1523 01:08:05,930 --> 01:08:04,020 that let's do that you know and we just 1524 01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:05,940 you know we we kind of rewrote that 1525 01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:08,130 scene and shot it and it was all good 1526 01:08:13,120 --> 01:08:11,010 and that was it and I mean I guess for 1527 01:08:14,450 --> 01:08:13,130 me the fact that I even said anything 1528 01:08:17,090 --> 01:08:14,460 you know 1529 01:08:18,950 --> 01:08:17,100 maybe other girls in this situation 1530 01:08:20,180 --> 01:08:18,960 maybe if I had been in LA I maybe I 1531 01:08:24,079 --> 01:08:20,190 would have been more fearful I don't 1532 01:08:27,229 --> 01:08:24,089 know but the attitude of in in England 1533 01:08:29,419 --> 01:08:27,239 is really more like or at least how I 1534 01:08:31,490 --> 01:08:29,429 felt is that I just thought you know 1535 01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:31,500 what I don't care that I'm a nobody and 1536 01:08:35,360 --> 01:08:33,210 I've been plucked from obscurity or 1537 01:08:37,689 --> 01:08:35,370 whatever I thought I'm here I've been 1538 01:08:41,419 --> 01:08:37,699 hired to do a job I'm gonna do the job 1539 01:08:43,249 --> 01:08:41,429 to the best of my ability and so as far 1540 01:08:45,740 --> 01:08:43,259 as I was concerned we were all equals 1541 01:08:47,870 --> 01:08:45,750 we're all equals working together and I 1542 01:08:50,090 --> 01:08:47,880 just wanted to help make it the best 1543 01:08:52,430 --> 01:08:50,100 thing it could be and and that was that 1544 01:08:54,410 --> 01:08:52,440 you know and I had that attitude so 1545 01:08:57,130 --> 01:08:54,420 that's why I spoke up that's why I said 1546 01:08:59,479 --> 01:08:57,140 you know I feel like I want to say this 1547 01:09:01,519 --> 01:08:59,489 and then that started though as opposed 1548 01:09:05,149 --> 01:09:01,529 to Tom Cruise who was more respectful of 1549 01:09:07,340 --> 01:09:05,159 Stanley than you were and he would make 1550 01:09:10,070 --> 01:09:07,350 sure that if he had any commentary about 1551 01:09:12,769 --> 01:09:10,080 how things were going he would take him 1552 01:09:14,630 --> 01:09:12,779 into a separate separate what was said I 1553 01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:14,640 don't know what he was but but that does 1554 01:09:19,939 --> 01:09:17,370 sound like what he was doing right from 1555 01:09:22,189 --> 01:09:19,949 everyone else there so I have no idea 1556 01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:22,199 what they would say I know that it 1557 01:09:29,360 --> 01:09:26,250 happened and and but it sounds like it 1558 01:09:33,740 --> 01:09:29,370 really was a collaboration the entire 1559 01:09:35,030 --> 01:09:33,750 film between Cruz and and Stanley and to 1560 01:09:35,660 --> 01:09:35,040 the point where I think I've heard you 1561 01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:35,670 say in a prior 1562 01:09:39,370 --> 01:09:37,410 interview that you weren't you didn't 1563 01:09:42,620 --> 01:09:39,380 even have the full script no I didn't 1564 01:09:46,370 --> 01:09:42,630 know they were really really really kept 1565 01:09:48,289 --> 01:09:46,380 that under wraps yeah I was running 1566 01:09:50,749 --> 01:09:48,299 around going oh I've read this script 1567 01:09:55,010 --> 01:09:50,759 like no how many people do you think had 1568 01:09:59,689 --> 01:09:55,020 read the script obviously the you know 1569 01:10:05,030 --> 01:09:59,699 the camera the GPS the you know the 1570 01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:05,040 immediate crew obviously Tom and Nicole 1571 01:10:09,470 --> 01:10:06,810 but I think the rest of them probably 1572 01:10:12,530 --> 01:10:09,480 not they probably just had their scenes 1573 01:10:14,270 --> 01:10:12,540 so you were you were you were there for 1574 01:10:15,979 --> 01:10:14,280 many months and in trying to piece 1575 01:10:18,260 --> 01:10:15,989 together what the heck this movie was 1576 01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:18,270 all about at one point I asked Tom I 1577 01:10:21,380 --> 01:10:20,010 said hey what kind of doctor are you and 1578 01:10:24,650 --> 01:10:21,390 he's like oh you only have to see the 1579 01:10:26,209 --> 01:10:24,660 film I'm like really really not even 1580 01:10:28,820 --> 01:10:26,219 gonna tell me what flippin kind of 1581 01:10:31,100 --> 01:10:28,830 doctor you are okay whatever you know 1582 01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:31,110 but I mean he didn't know me from Adam 1583 01:10:35,540 --> 01:10:33,690 who knows what kind of person I was you 1584 01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:35,550 know let me ask you something do you 1585 01:10:39,860 --> 01:10:38,250 think this was unique to Kubrick not 1586 01:10:42,830 --> 01:10:39,870 wanting people to know or do you think 1587 01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:42,840 that it's it was just more matter of hey 1588 01:10:46,790 --> 01:10:45,090 we don't want the script to leak out so 1589 01:10:50,810 --> 01:10:46,800 the fewer people we give the script to 1590 01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:50,820 the better I don't know the answer to 1591 01:10:54,890 --> 01:10:52,650 that I think 1592 01:10:56,630 --> 01:10:54,900 Kubrick probably was very secretive 1593 01:11:00,380 --> 01:10:56,640 about his scripts because there's always 1594 01:11:03,669 --> 01:11:00,390 whenever Stanley would do a new film it 1595 01:11:06,110 --> 01:11:03,679 was always a very big deal wasn't it so 1596 01:11:07,610 --> 01:11:06,120 yeah I mean typically in a film like 1597 01:11:10,100 --> 01:11:07,620 that you would be given the full script 1598 01:11:12,290 --> 01:11:10,110 though right yeah well sure I mean I've 1599 01:11:15,169 --> 01:11:12,300 never had that situation before or since 1600 01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:15,179 I've always had the full script always 1601 01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:20,010 okay and now you're shooting the the the 1602 01:11:26,060 --> 01:11:22,170 the orgy scenes or whatever we call this 1603 01:11:28,550 --> 01:11:26,070 well why the party - you've got the 1604 01:11:31,959 --> 01:11:28,560 ritual scenes where all the girls are in 1605 01:11:36,680 --> 01:11:31,969 the circle and then we start peeling off 1606 01:11:39,110 --> 01:11:36,690 so I shot those scenes but the scenes 1607 01:11:44,330 --> 01:11:39,120 where you see the girls in various 1608 01:11:46,310 --> 01:11:44,340 positions of an orgy that I was not 1609 01:11:48,050 --> 01:11:46,320 involved with so the ritual scenes 1610 01:11:49,510 --> 01:11:48,060 though are still pretty weird 1611 01:11:52,330 --> 01:11:49,520 as you were 1612 01:11:57,910 --> 01:11:52,340 knows what was your thought as to what 1613 01:11:59,890 --> 01:11:57,920 you thought he was trying to depict well 1614 01:12:02,020 --> 01:11:59,900 I thought it was some sort of a ritual 1615 01:12:04,660 --> 01:12:02,030 of some sort I thought the music he used 1616 01:12:07,180 --> 01:12:04,670 it sounded somewhat satanic and I knew 1617 01:12:09,910 --> 01:12:07,190 that it had a creepy element but that's 1618 01:12:12,130 --> 01:12:09,920 about as far as it went because I didn't 1619 01:12:14,860 --> 01:12:12,140 know what the rest of the script was so 1620 01:12:17,410 --> 01:12:14,870 I had no way of knowing I had I had no 1621 01:12:20,320 --> 01:12:17,420 way of knowing at that time what the 1622 01:12:22,420 --> 01:12:20,330 intention was and they never flat-out 1623 01:12:23,950 --> 01:12:22,430 say that it was satanic ritual in the 1624 01:12:25,480 --> 01:12:23,960 movie but is that element I mean you 1625 01:12:29,020 --> 01:12:25,490 know when you listen to that music it 1626 01:12:35,220 --> 01:12:29,030 sounds pretty dark doesn't it yeah and 1627 01:12:37,660 --> 01:12:35,230 the guys wearing red yeah okay but 1628 01:12:40,300 --> 01:12:37,670 here's the thing about Stanley though 1629 01:12:42,790 --> 01:12:40,310 one of the things that I loved about his 1630 01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:42,800 filmmaking and and in fact the reason I 1631 01:12:47,650 --> 01:12:45,770 even put myself forward for the film was 1632 01:12:50,470 --> 01:12:47,660 because of Stanley I mean at the time I 1633 01:12:53,230 --> 01:12:50,480 was like Tom Cruise so what you know I 1634 01:12:55,180 --> 01:12:53,240 wasn't really like you know that one way 1635 01:12:57,970 --> 01:12:55,190 or another about Tom you know and since 1636 01:13:00,970 --> 01:12:57,980 since then I I liked him a lot more 1637 01:13:04,180 --> 01:13:00,980 after working with him but Stanley I've 1638 01:13:06,910 --> 01:13:04,190 always loved his work and what I love 1639 01:13:10,330 --> 01:13:06,920 about Stanley is that he doesn't spell 1640 01:13:12,010 --> 01:13:10,340 it out he doesn't spell out the meaning 1641 01:13:14,620 --> 01:13:12,020 of everything whereas you look at 1642 01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:14,630 someone like Spielberg and the way he 1643 01:13:20,260 --> 01:13:17,810 makes films he he likes to spell things 1644 01:13:22,510 --> 01:13:20,270 out he likes to kind of spoon feed his 1645 01:13:26,170 --> 01:13:22,520 audience and Stanley doesn't 1646 01:13:30,250 --> 01:13:26,180 underestimate the intelligence of his 1647 01:13:35,590 --> 01:13:30,260 audience and he allows people to to 1648 01:13:39,310 --> 01:13:35,600 theorize actually endlessly over what 1649 01:13:41,830 --> 01:13:39,320 the meanings are and probably the reason 1650 01:13:43,120 --> 01:13:41,840 you know people go on and on about Eyes 1651 01:13:46,150 --> 01:13:43,130 Wide Shut having to do with the 1652 01:13:48,820 --> 01:13:46,160 Illuminati and Satanism and you know the 1653 01:13:53,950 --> 01:13:48,830 elites of this world which I think it 1654 01:13:55,990 --> 01:13:53,960 probably does go on but it's a way that 1655 01:13:57,760 --> 01:13:56,000 Stanley could sort of make that 1656 01:14:01,590 --> 01:13:57,770 statement without making that statement 1657 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:01,600 in a way you know this is the story 1658 01:14:06,459 --> 01:14:03,730 he's no 1659 01:14:09,430 --> 01:14:06,469 whirring scenes again and again and 1660 01:14:12,310 --> 01:14:09,440 again so is is that what happened in the 1661 01:14:14,740 --> 01:14:12,320 ritual scene yes and could you at least 1662 01:14:17,620 --> 01:14:14,750 kind of know we're here we were 1663 01:14:19,810 --> 01:14:17,630 rehearsing that those ritual Saints that 1664 01:14:21,580 --> 01:14:19,820 the girls in the circle that initial 1665 01:14:24,040 --> 01:14:21,590 scene before they started peeling off 1666 01:14:27,700 --> 01:14:24,050 all of that scene well and the peeling 1667 01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:27,710 off and then as you know my character 1668 01:14:32,470 --> 01:14:28,610 Mandy 1669 01:14:34,770 --> 01:14:32,480 started walking up the stairs that scene 1670 01:14:37,180 --> 01:14:34,780 we rehearsed from the beginning to 1671 01:14:39,549 --> 01:14:37,190 walking up the stairs we did that again 1672 01:14:44,140 --> 01:14:39,559 and again and again and we rehearsed for 1673 01:14:47,020 --> 01:14:44,150 probably a month we started filming to 1674 01:14:50,680 --> 01:14:47,030 the point to the point where you thought 1675 01:14:51,430 --> 01:14:50,690 this is kind of absurd it was 1676 01:14:56,169 --> 01:14:51,440 frustrating 1677 01:14:59,529 --> 01:14:56,179 I actually got injured which is why you 1678 01:15:03,240 --> 01:14:59,539 see a credit of Abigail good being 1679 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:03,250 mysterious woman because I was injured 1680 01:15:08,379 --> 01:15:06,050 we were having to you know kneel down 1681 01:15:10,509 --> 01:15:08,389 and then get back up in you know four 1682 01:15:13,299 --> 01:15:10,519 and a half inch heels and I actually 1683 01:15:16,180 --> 01:15:13,309 pulled my fascia and so I was having 1684 01:15:18,189 --> 01:15:16,190 trouble kneeling down and getting back 1685 01:15:22,660 --> 01:15:18,199 up because it was hurting I ended up 1686 01:15:24,790 --> 01:15:22,670 getting a CO proximal so I was just kind 1687 01:15:26,500 --> 01:15:24,800 of tingly when we finally were shooting 1688 01:15:32,140 --> 01:15:26,510 it but the damage had already been done 1689 01:15:33,819 --> 01:15:32,150 and the my own private doctor gave me 1690 01:15:35,799 --> 01:15:33,829 that and I'm not somebody that likes to 1691 01:15:37,750 --> 01:15:35,809 take drugs or painkillers but I said to 1692 01:15:41,549 --> 01:15:37,760 my doctor at the time I said look I've 1693 01:15:44,549 --> 01:15:41,559 done this I've done damage to this and 1694 01:15:47,850 --> 01:15:44,559 but I can't afford to help this happen 1695 01:15:50,470 --> 01:15:47,860 so please can you give me something and 1696 01:15:52,930 --> 01:15:50,480 she knew me and she knew that I I wasn't 1697 01:15:54,549 --> 01:15:52,940 the type to abuse any kind of drug so 1698 01:15:56,649 --> 01:15:54,559 she gave that to me so that I would be 1699 01:15:58,060 --> 01:15:56,659 okay for the scenes but the thing is is 1700 01:16:00,100 --> 01:15:58,070 that at that point it was already too 1701 01:16:01,689 --> 01:16:00,110 late and he said I can't take a chance 1702 01:16:04,479 --> 01:16:01,699 because you're injured so I'm gonna have 1703 01:16:08,410 --> 01:16:04,489 to you know give you a body double which 1704 01:16:11,259 --> 01:16:08,420 in essence is what he is so do you think 1705 01:16:13,569 --> 01:16:11,269 there was a method to his madness or the 1706 01:16:15,939 --> 01:16:13,579 guy which is kind of a bit nuts to be 1707 01:16:21,930 --> 01:16:15,949 doing all this rehearsing and all these 1708 01:16:30,940 --> 01:16:27,700 um okay you know how sometimes you see 1709 01:16:32,650 --> 01:16:30,950 someone who maybe you might consider 1710 01:16:37,710 --> 01:16:32,660 them a genius and they have this 1711 01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:37,720 preconceived vision and idea and 1712 01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:40,370 whatever they do leading on from that 1713 01:16:46,210 --> 01:16:43,010 point is to realize that preconceived 1714 01:16:50,080 --> 01:16:46,220 vision that's not Stanley 1715 01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:50,090 so what Stanley is is someone who is a 1716 01:16:57,790 --> 01:16:54,850 genius in the way that of how he pulls 1717 01:17:01,210 --> 01:16:57,800 does a tremendous amount of research and 1718 01:17:06,400 --> 01:17:01,220 pulls in different elements in order to 1719 01:17:12,060 --> 01:17:06,410 make things happen in the way that he in 1720 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:12,070 the way that it evolves for it to be 1721 01:17:17,310 --> 01:17:14,210 what works for him 1722 01:17:19,420 --> 01:17:17,320 sorry I don't know if that makes sense 1723 01:17:24,340 --> 01:17:19,430 he doesn't have as much of a 1724 01:17:26,740 --> 01:17:24,350 preconceived idea it's more he'll get in 1725 01:17:29,710 --> 01:17:26,750 the position he'll have an idea of how 1726 01:17:30,520 --> 01:17:29,720 he wants to shoot something and then at 1727 01:17:35,080 --> 01:17:30,530 that point 1728 01:17:39,580 --> 01:17:35,090 he'll explore explore various ideas so 1729 01:17:43,390 --> 01:17:39,590 the reason for his tons and tons of 1730 01:17:49,210 --> 01:17:43,400 rehearsals it kind of gives him a way of 1731 01:17:51,370 --> 01:17:49,220 exploring more more comprehensively so 1732 01:17:54,010 --> 01:17:51,380 he he will you know explore with 1733 01:17:59,740 --> 01:17:54,020 different different lighting different 1734 01:18:02,620 --> 01:17:59,750 light strengths or sets different camera 1735 01:18:06,490 --> 01:18:02,630 movements I mean he was very very very 1736 01:18:08,979 --> 01:18:06,500 specific on camera movements and camera 1737 01:18:11,950 --> 01:18:08,989 timing for instance in the bathroom 1738 01:18:13,510 --> 01:18:11,960 scenes I remember the for the initial 1739 01:18:15,820 --> 01:18:13,520 shot of every you know you had the 1740 01:18:18,790 --> 01:18:15,830 camera it was on a dolly and it would 1741 01:18:21,250 --> 01:18:18,800 move forward and then the camera would 1742 01:18:23,830 --> 01:18:21,260 kind of dip down like this and then it 1743 01:18:25,690 --> 01:18:23,840 would kind of move up and then stop at a 1744 01:18:29,650 --> 01:18:25,700 certain point on me 1745 01:18:30,400 --> 01:18:29,660 and in the scene as we were doing the 1746 01:18:33,730 --> 01:18:30,410 scene 1747 01:18:35,950 --> 01:18:33,740 it had to reach this point and then this 1748 01:18:38,500 --> 01:18:35,960 point and then this point and then this 1749 01:18:42,850 --> 01:18:38,510 point at the exact right moment that he 1750 01:18:46,060 --> 01:18:42,860 wanted it to be reached and that 1751 01:18:48,160 --> 01:18:46,070 involved as he went on and so what I'm 1752 01:18:51,220 --> 01:18:48,170 saying is that's why the rehearsals were 1753 01:18:55,930 --> 01:18:51,230 so involved and why they took so long 1754 01:18:58,420 --> 01:18:55,940 because one he could and two he wanted 1755 01:19:00,430 --> 01:18:58,430 to find the best way so it wasn't like 1756 01:19:02,260 --> 01:19:00,440 he would go into room going you know 1757 01:19:05,350 --> 01:19:02,270 with his little I think going yep this 1758 01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:05,360 is the shot he would walk into a room at 1759 01:19:11,260 --> 01:19:09,410 this little you know lens and say yeah 1760 01:19:13,900 --> 01:19:11,270 let's try it from this angle let's let's 1761 01:19:15,820 --> 01:19:13,910 try this right and it was a it was a 1762 01:19:18,370 --> 01:19:15,830 matter of trial and error his genius 1763 01:19:20,470 --> 01:19:18,380 came from doing the research and 1764 01:19:23,710 --> 01:19:20,480 surrounding himself with excellent 1765 01:19:25,870 --> 01:19:23,720 people in all in all areas so if you're 1766 01:19:28,900 --> 01:19:25,880 a Kubrick fan you should really 1767 01:19:30,190 --> 01:19:28,910 appreciate every second of the film 1768 01:19:32,470 --> 01:19:30,200 because you're saying that basically 1769 01:19:37,900 --> 01:19:32,480 every second was thought through to the 1770 01:19:39,790 --> 01:19:37,910 nth detail for him it was and and you 1771 01:19:42,370 --> 01:19:39,800 know some people go crazy with some of 1772 01:19:44,830 --> 01:19:42,380 the continuity right they're going but 1773 01:19:48,430 --> 01:19:44,840 there was a pause in that other shot and 1774 01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:48,440 now the Boz is gone there was something 1775 01:19:51,940 --> 01:19:50,210 I can't remember if it was a Vols or 1776 01:19:55,210 --> 01:19:51,950 something others sort of trinket that 1777 01:19:57,400 --> 01:19:55,220 was in the bathroom scenes and for the 1778 01:19:59,320 --> 01:19:57,410 first scene or the second scene it was 1779 01:20:01,420 --> 01:19:59,330 in one place and then for the other 1780 01:20:04,990 --> 01:20:01,430 scene it was either gone or somewhere in 1781 01:20:07,180 --> 01:20:05,000 another part of the room and I remember 1782 01:20:08,710 --> 01:20:07,190 the continuity girl would say but 1783 01:20:11,350 --> 01:20:08,720 Stanley that was in there for the first 1784 01:20:12,910 --> 01:20:11,360 like I don't care you know like it 1785 01:20:16,150 --> 01:20:12,920 doesn't look good in the frame right now 1786 01:20:17,590 --> 01:20:16,160 in this but you know so that was that 1787 01:20:21,220 --> 01:20:17,600 was the thing is that he was a real 1788 01:20:23,110 --> 01:20:21,230 stickler for every frame and the timing 1789 01:20:26,020 --> 01:20:23,120 and the lighting and and and in fact 1790 01:20:28,570 --> 01:20:26,030 even down to my lip color I remember 1791 01:20:30,460 --> 01:20:28,580 when I the first scenes we changed my 1792 01:20:33,220 --> 01:20:30,470 lip color three or four times until it 1793 01:20:34,750 --> 01:20:33,230 was the exact shade that he wanted oh I 1794 01:20:36,580 --> 01:20:34,760 have to ask you this question because I 1795 01:20:40,030 --> 01:20:36,590 rewatched it last night in preparation 1796 01:20:42,580 --> 01:20:40,040 for our discussion and there's a little 1797 01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:42,590 part that doesn't make sense at least 1798 01:20:48,330 --> 01:20:44,210 maybe I missed it 1799 01:20:51,250 --> 01:20:48,340 how did you know for the film sake that 1800 01:20:53,590 --> 01:20:51,260 Tom Cruise was Tom Cruise because after 1801 01:20:56,800 --> 01:20:53,600 the ritual you go up to him and you say 1802 01:20:58,960 --> 01:20:56,810 hey you need to get out of here it's not 1803 01:21:00,760 --> 01:20:58,970 safe here yeah according to the story 1804 01:21:02,590 --> 01:21:00,770 you're going to him because you remember 1805 01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:02,600 him as being the doctor who had helped 1806 01:21:08,890 --> 01:21:05,330 you yet he's behind a mask so how did 1807 01:21:11,710 --> 01:21:08,900 you know that was him well that's 1808 01:21:13,780 --> 01:21:11,720 something that Stanley does not spell 1809 01:21:16,480 --> 01:21:13,790 out for people and we can forever 1810 01:21:21,270 --> 01:21:16,490 theorize why 1811 01:21:24,370 --> 01:21:21,280 Mandy knew this either Mandy was told 1812 01:21:28,900 --> 01:21:24,380 people knew who he was when he came in I 1813 01:21:31,390 --> 01:21:28,910 don't know her theorized ok so wasn't an 1814 01:21:34,810 --> 01:21:31,400 error by Stanley that I caught though no 1815 01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:34,820 no he wouldn't she clearly was tip me 1816 01:21:40,780 --> 01:21:37,010 it's a good point maybe she was pointed 1817 01:21:44,070 --> 01:21:40,790 out to that hey get rid of this guy yeah 1818 01:21:47,950 --> 01:21:44,080 it's the theory just like just like I 1819 01:21:49,420 --> 01:21:47,960 mean his films are like a what's the 1820 01:21:52,720 --> 01:21:49,430 thing where you kind of it's like a 1821 01:21:56,140 --> 01:21:52,730 flower you can keep peeling the petals 1822 01:21:58,270 --> 01:21:56,150 and finding more and more and more it's 1823 01:22:00,550 --> 01:21:58,280 like it's like a Mandelbrot set you know 1824 01:22:02,200 --> 01:22:00,560 you can keep peeling it and finding more 1825 01:22:04,570 --> 01:22:02,210 detail 1826 01:22:08,890 --> 01:22:04,580 he just didn't spell things out because 1827 01:22:10,750 --> 01:22:08,900 he allowed the audience to decide what 1828 01:22:16,060 --> 01:22:10,760 that story was and and it's just very 1829 01:22:17,710 --> 01:22:16,070 interesting that through the years and 1830 01:22:19,390 --> 01:22:17,720 you can watch the story you know watch 1831 01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:19,400 the film the first time and have one 1832 01:22:24,580 --> 01:22:21,530 idea and then maybe watch it again and 1833 01:22:26,890 --> 01:22:24,590 have another idea and accept what about 1834 01:22:28,930 --> 01:22:26,900 continually have different ideas and 1835 01:22:31,450 --> 01:22:28,940 different theories about what the 1836 01:22:33,910 --> 01:22:31,460 meaning was what the point was what 1837 01:22:36,280 --> 01:22:33,920 really happened and that's kind of the 1838 01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:36,290 beauty of it really yeah but during all 1839 01:22:41,050 --> 01:22:39,050 your time with him did he ever spouse in 1840 01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:41,060 front of you what the movie was about or 1841 01:22:45,580 --> 01:22:42,290 what he was trying to get to or give you 1842 01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:45,590 any clues as to what the what the point 1843 01:22:52,030 --> 01:22:48,410 of the movie was nope and in fact what 1844 01:22:53,770 --> 01:22:52,040 was so interesting is that he didn't 1845 01:22:57,500 --> 01:22:53,780 like to talk about him and he didn't 1846 01:23:01,850 --> 01:22:59,450 he didn't really like to talk about much 1847 01:23:03,770 --> 01:23:01,860 about his past I mean there was a few 1848 01:23:05,750 --> 01:23:03,780 little things that he said like he was 1849 01:23:07,880 --> 01:23:05,760 telling me about a scene in dr. 1850 01:23:09,830 --> 01:23:07,890 Strangelove that he's still chuckled 1851 01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:09,840 about that told that you know he told me 1852 01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:13,530 about but for the most part he spent a 1853 01:23:18,740 --> 01:23:16,410 lot of his time finding out about other 1854 01:23:20,980 --> 01:23:18,750 people he was like a sponge he didn't 1855 01:23:23,660 --> 01:23:20,990 want to talk about himself he wanted to 1856 01:23:25,850 --> 01:23:23,670 find out everything about other people 1857 01:23:28,250 --> 01:23:25,860 so he was constantly asking me questions 1858 01:23:31,510 --> 01:23:28,260 about me my life why'd I live in London 1859 01:23:35,540 --> 01:23:31,520 what else do you do I mean at one point 1860 01:23:38,930 --> 01:23:35,550 this is early on I said oh you know I'm 1861 01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:38,940 a model and then also I make music I 1862 01:23:43,670 --> 01:23:40,530 sing and I write and produce and 1863 01:23:45,020 --> 01:23:43,680 everything and he said oh I'd love to 1864 01:23:46,610 --> 01:23:45,030 hear some of your music and I said 1865 01:23:48,230 --> 01:23:46,620 really I mean you know you're in the 1866 01:23:50,420 --> 01:23:48,240 middle of shooting this film because no 1867 01:23:53,150 --> 01:23:50,430 no no please you know so I made a potato 1868 01:23:55,820 --> 01:23:53,160 him and it was like a half hours worth 1869 01:23:57,860 --> 01:23:55,830 of music came back the next day I kid 1870 01:23:59,570 --> 01:23:57,870 you not the next day and he said well I 1871 01:24:01,700 --> 01:23:59,580 listened to all of your songs because 1872 01:24:04,310 --> 01:24:01,710 from your voice is excellent and he said 1873 01:24:05,720 --> 01:24:04,320 no this song what did you mean with blah 1874 01:24:08,150 --> 01:24:05,730 blah blah and he was asking me questions 1875 01:24:11,420 --> 01:24:08,160 about each song and I was just 1876 01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:11,430 gobsmacked because I thought here you 1877 01:24:14,210 --> 01:24:12,810 are you're filming this thing you're 1878 01:24:16,010 --> 01:24:14,220 probably going home to look at the 1879 01:24:18,260 --> 01:24:16,020 rushes of what you were hurt you know 1880 01:24:21,380 --> 01:24:18,270 the rehearsal rushes and whatever and 1881 01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:21,390 the footage that you did shoot and yet 1882 01:24:25,370 --> 01:24:23,130 you still took a half an hour to listen 1883 01:24:28,100 --> 01:24:25,380 to you know me little old me peon 1884 01:24:29,990 --> 01:24:28,110 unknown me to listen to all of my songs 1885 01:24:31,640 --> 01:24:30,000 I mean that's just incredible to me 1886 01:24:34,450 --> 01:24:31,650 that's funny that's when he was like 1887 01:24:37,010 --> 01:24:34,460 he'd like to find out about everything 1888 01:24:39,530 --> 01:24:37,020 about other people because I think that 1889 01:24:43,400 --> 01:24:39,540 he was like the sponge and it helped him 1890 01:24:45,170 --> 01:24:43,410 to kind of gain more knowledge about the 1891 01:24:47,810 --> 01:24:45,180 world really well it's pretty amazing 1892 01:24:49,820 --> 01:24:47,820 that two actors at the height of their 1893 01:24:52,570 --> 01:24:49,830 careers to Cole Kidman and Tom Cruise 1894 01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:52,580 were willing to subject themselves to 1895 01:24:58,100 --> 01:24:55,530 being in a film them because I mean the 1896 01:25:00,520 --> 01:24:58,110 number of months they had to spend with 1897 01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:00,530 him doing his endless number of takes 1898 01:25:04,820 --> 01:25:02,970 it's amazing they had the patience Rick 1899 01:25:06,440 --> 01:25:04,830 I mean do you think that it would have 1900 01:25:10,550 --> 01:25:06,450 been my first choice for me to do 1901 01:25:11,420 --> 01:25:10,560 frontal and rear full nudity I mean you 1902 01:25:13,640 --> 01:25:11,430 know but it's 1903 01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:13,650 like when when the opportunity arises 1904 01:25:21,260 --> 01:25:17,010 you think it's stanley kubrick's oh okay 1905 01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:21,270 you know and I am but I did turn it down 1906 01:25:26,390 --> 01:25:23,130 I mean he wanted me to be involved in 1907 01:25:30,290 --> 01:25:26,400 the quote action of the orgy scenes and 1908 01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:30,300 I really was not comfortable I was so 1909 01:25:34,790 --> 01:25:32,010 uncomfortable in fact I said you know 1910 01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:34,800 Stanley I just can't I just can't do it 1911 01:25:38,660 --> 01:25:37,410 just doesn't I just I just and you and 1912 01:25:40,460 --> 01:25:38,670 you probably regret that to this day 1913 01:25:42,590 --> 01:25:40,470 because you could have had more scenes 1914 01:25:46,490 --> 01:25:42,600 in a Stanley Kubrick movie nope don't 1915 01:25:48,280 --> 01:25:46,500 regret it not one second my favorite 1916 01:25:51,950 --> 01:25:48,290 part of the movie and you weren't in it 1917 01:25:53,840 --> 01:25:51,960 because I I Know Who I am and I know 1918 01:25:57,100 --> 01:25:53,850 what I can live with and what I can't 1919 01:26:01,340 --> 01:25:57,110 live with and just as a little side note 1920 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:01,350 it was only about a year and a half two 1921 01:26:06,230 --> 01:26:03,330 years previous to that I was actually 1922 01:26:11,320 --> 01:26:06,240 sexually assaulted on the street by a 1923 01:26:14,330 --> 01:26:11,330 stranger and and I was injured and I 1924 01:26:15,770 --> 01:26:14,340 hadn't really recovered from that I you 1925 01:26:17,780 --> 01:26:15,780 know I was just having kind of like this 1926 01:26:20,330 --> 01:26:17,790 waking nightmare of the thing happening 1927 01:26:23,810 --> 01:26:20,340 over and over again and I actually felt 1928 01:26:25,820 --> 01:26:23,820 really vulnerable and I used to do you 1929 01:26:28,790 --> 01:26:25,830 know as a fashion model you kind of 1930 01:26:30,740 --> 01:26:28,800 don't care about nudity because you know 1931 01:26:32,840 --> 01:26:30,750 you're changing all the time and and 1932 01:26:35,570 --> 01:26:32,850 it's just like you think of your body as 1933 01:26:38,240 --> 01:26:35,580 just another outfit pretty much but 1934 01:26:40,610 --> 01:26:38,250 after that incident of being assaulted 1935 01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:40,620 on the street I I felt very vulnerable 1936 01:26:49,070 --> 01:26:43,770 and I felt vulnerable for quite a long 1937 01:26:52,640 --> 01:26:49,080 time and and so when we were shooting 1938 01:26:54,830 --> 01:26:52,650 I did feel vulnerable which is why I 1939 01:26:58,280 --> 01:26:54,840 wanted the towel which is why I wanted 1940 01:27:00,800 --> 01:26:58,290 my robe it was just it just you know it 1941 01:27:03,890 --> 01:27:00,810 was it was that aspect of it wasn't easy 1942 01:27:06,260 --> 01:27:03,900 but I really wanted to work with Stanley 1943 01:27:08,630 --> 01:27:06,270 Kubrick because I was a huge fan like so 1944 01:27:10,190 --> 01:27:08,640 many people and so do you do I think it 1945 01:27:11,750 --> 01:27:10,200 was a good decision on the line I had to 1946 01:27:14,420 --> 01:27:11,760 draw the line I did not want to 1947 01:27:16,460 --> 01:27:14,430 participate in the action of the orgy 1948 01:27:18,170 --> 01:27:16,470 scenes I didn't see the point somebody 1949 01:27:21,230 --> 01:27:18,180 else could do it with my hair which is 1950 01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:21,240 exactly what happened well we've been 1951 01:27:24,860 --> 01:27:23,010 talking so much we're running low on 1952 01:27:26,510 --> 01:27:24,870 battery but I do want to allow 1953 01:27:29,620 --> 01:27:26,520 the opportunity to provide your two 1954 01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:29,630 cents before the battery runs out on 1955 01:27:33,860 --> 01:27:30,810 ANCOVA 1956 01:27:36,170 --> 01:27:33,870 and how you feel about State of 1957

01:28:55,820 --> 01:28:52,740 people that the leftists that are 1980 01:28:59,840 --> 01:28:55,830 following you know they're mayors and 1981 01:29:01,940 --> 01:28:59,850 governors that are Democrat

01:29:17,360 --> 01:29:15,090 have freedom you can provide your own 1988 01:29:20,630 --> 01:29:17,370 safety and security and you don't need 1989 01:29:22,190 --> 01:29:20,640 to rely on government to tell you that 1990 01:29:25,820 --> 01:29:22,200 they're making you safe and secure 1991 01:29:27,830 --> 01:29:25,830 because honestly they can't you can you 1992 01:29:30,100 --> 01:29:27,840
