Starting point is 00:00:00 Doug hates candy wrappers, screaming babies, sticky seats with 50 acid pop or kernels in his teeth. There's still not one that he won't see, cause Doug loves movies! Hello everybody. Welcome to I Love Movies with Doug Benson. I'm your host, Doug Benson, and I love movies. That was the theme song by Hard and Firm. And we're coming to you from the UCB Theater in Los Angeles in front of a live audience.
Starting point is 00:00:43 Yay! Yay! They do lots of great shows here at UCB, so go to ucbtheater.com for more details. But don't do it now. Enjoy this show first. I always like to open with a remark that's movie-related, and I'm not going to name the specific movie that I'm talking about because I might ruin part of the movie for someone who hasn't seen it yet.
Starting point is 00:01:11 So let's just say the title rhymes with The Defarted. And all I want to say is if I were an undercover mole in a dangerous situation, I'd put my cell phone on vibrate. It's just something I would do. I would figure that out on my own, that a loud cell phone when you're skirmishing around in between some packages in a warehouse, people might notice you if you get a call That's my opening thing My guest today Thank you very much You guys are awesome
Starting point is 00:01:51 My guest today on I Love Movies Played my favorite point in a love triangle With Joey and Chandler on Friends Played my favorite wife of Huff on Huff And could soon be seen as my favorite mind on Criminal Minds. In fact, she just started appearing on that show this season. Please, everybody, give a warm welcome to Padgett Brewster.

Starting point is 00:02:35 I know, it's kind of. I'm a girl. Wow. God, that FBI training is paying off. Yeah, you shouldn't say I'm a girl when you're just starting work on a shoot-em-up with Mandy Patinkin. That must be fun to be on a set with Mandy Patinkin and have a firearm on your person. It is, yeah. What kind of gun does your character carry?
Starting point is 00:03:01 A Glock, a.40 caliber 9mm Glock. I don't know what that means. Let's talk about movies. Let's talk film. Padgett Brewster. What have you seen lately? Have you seen anything lately? That's a no?
Starting point is 00:03:19 You're busy. You're busy making entertainment. Yes, I've been doing it. I've seen a lot of television. Unfortunately, the last movie that I saw in the theater was War of the Worlds. It's going to sound like you're setting me up, but I have something I'd like to say about that. Okay. It wasn't my fault.
Starting point is 00:03:39 I even said it on a previous podcast, but I don't give a shit. I didn't care for that movie because that movie, the message was too heavy for me. Did you get the message of War of the Worlds? Don't have kids. Because they will slow your ass down if you need to run from an alien invasion. That's my little joke about a movie that's a couple summers old. It is, I know. It's been that long since you've gone out to a theater. Gone to a movie that's a couple summers old. It is, I know. It's been that long since you've gone out to a theater. Gone to a movie theater, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Because what I do is I get Netflix. I have the five in the queue. Five. Five. Holy crap. Thank you. I feel good about it. I don't think I could handle five.
Starting point is 00:04:18 I think that'd be too much for me to deal with. Are you a three? You're a three banger. I'm a three. I'm a three. And I had one for over a year. Before I three banger i'm a three and i i had i had one for over a year before i finally said i'm not gonna watch this and i sent it back so now i'm back in the three cycle and it's exciting i have kiss kiss bang bang that i haven't watched in a
Starting point is 00:04:35 long time is it good it's really good okay yeah maybe i'll check it out it should be called bang bang wink wink because the whole movie is kind of like no it's not you know like the narrator knows it's a movie that kind of thing you know like there's like jokes that are jokes about how it's a movie oh dear but oh don't panic no i'm not really there's some good ones you don't like that in general no no i don't you don't like fourth wall busters yeah i only hear you're not gonna do a lot of that in Criminal Minds? Mandy just breaks into a song and you do a little dance? And then the audience gets home. Is there any, so what was the most recent Netflix movie that you watched?
Starting point is 00:05:17 Oh, it was, oh, see, I'm useless. Take your time. We've got about a half hour. I got, it's, it was, oh, I don't. Name any movie that you may have. It doesn't have to be the absolute most recent one. Or Truthful? Yeah, you can.
Starting point is 00:05:37 L.A. Confidential. You could lie. I saw L.A. Confidential. You finally got around to that one? You're like, I'll check that out. Or have you been doing research and watching crime stuff? Noir. Noir?
Starting point is 00:05:50 Yeah. No, honestly, I don't remember the last thing I saw. Oh, okay. But I own true romance. That counts for something, doesn't it? I own some movies. Are you kidding me? Watching James Gandolfini get smashed in the head with the top of a toilet.
Starting point is 00:06:02 Yeah. Is one of the best moments ever. And he gets stabbed with a little Godzilla knife, the corkscrew. She sticks in his foot, and then she's green. They lost me at the toilet thing. Oh. I stopped. That was too violent for me.
Starting point is 00:06:16 But I drive by that hotel. Floyd, yeah. Yeah, there's that hotel. The Safari Inn. The Safari Inn. Right on Olive. It's on Olive in the Valley. So every time I drive by, whoever's in the car, I don't care if it's Tarantino in the valley so every time i drive by whoever's in the car i don't care
Starting point is 00:06:27 if it's tarantino in the car with me i point out that that's from the movie that's the hotel from true romance i was driving with christian slater one no um so are you so you're not you're you're uh totally unaware of like movies that are on the horizon like is there anything that you're totally unaware of movies that are on the horizon? Is there anything that you're looking forward to seeing that you've heard is coming out soon? Well, name something and let me see if I'm looking forward to seeing it. Babel? Don't know anything about it. That's Brad Pitt and several other actors in another depressing wallow.
Starting point is 00:07:02 It doesn't sound like that to me. From the guy who did 21 Grams. No. I mean, I'm not the guy who did 21 Grams. No. I mean, I'm not saying the director did 21 Grams. There's a movie that he made called 21 Grams. And that movie's getting a lot, people are excited about it. Because it's just another depressing, like several characters and their stories sort of intertwine. Like Altman-esque?
Starting point is 00:07:21 No, more like the guy that made 21 grams. All right, is there another one? What's his name? Inoratu or something like that? I don't know what his name is. Inamorata? What about, have you heard about fur? Oh, I think I may have.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Wait, what happens in that? I bet you it's about Diane Arbus. Yeah, the photographer. Nicole Kidman beat you out for that part That whore The part she gets away from me That skinny I know it's ridiculous
Starting point is 00:07:52 She's playing Diane Arbus You stole Hoff away from her though She auditioned and they went A boo She did a thumbs down For those of you listening Boo and thumbs down That those of you listening. Boo and thumbs down.
Starting point is 00:08:07 That is harshly critical. Oh, they hated her. They could do one or the other. They hit her with both. Boo, thumbs down. Boo, thumbs down. But yeah, but you're very much into photography
Starting point is 00:08:15 and I assume know her work. Yeah, I took some of the pictures back there. Yeah, she did Haunting Americana, I think is the boiled down expression.
Starting point is 00:08:25 Oh, great. Now I can skip the movie. Wait, is that your description of fur? Fur. I mean, I love the title, so I'm in. Any movie that's just three letters, I'm all over it. Can you name another movie with three letters? I'm trying to think of another one right now.
Starting point is 00:08:43 Have they ever made hat into a movie? Now, here's an easier question for you. You'll probably just say True Romance again. But what are some of your favorite movies of all time? Do you have some of those? Brazil, Blade Runner, Fountainhead. Let me ask you back up, back up, back up. On the first two, director's cut or studio cut?
Starting point is 00:09:09 Director's cut. Because Brazil and Blade Runner. Brazil had two director cuts. They both have 17 cuts. And they have a new special edition. A new Brazil DVD just came out. Like, didn't you think you'd seen it all? And now there's a new new one.
Starting point is 00:09:23 There's a fourth. Yeah, I liked Gilliam's, both of Gilliam. I didn't like the studio. But then that movie was held hostage for a year, wasn't it? Yeah, yeah, for a long time. And Terry Gilliam took out a full-page ad in Variety or something and said, If you don't release this movie, I will make a lot of shitty movies for the rest of my career. And he is really stuck to that.
Starting point is 00:09:46 He's really... I was watching Roper and whoever's filling in for Ebert, and this new one he made, Tideland, have you even heard of it? No. Like, when a movie shows up on Roper and Ebert, Roper and Ebert, and I've never heard of it, I'm shocked. And I was watching it recently, and Tideland stars Jeff Bridges, reunited with Gilliam after their work together in The Fisher King.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Yes, The Fisher King. And it was just mercilessly slammed. They went boo and thumbs down. Wow. Both, all their thumbs. So it's not going great for him, at least according to those two guys. Did you see Lost in La Mancha? Yes, I did. I like that.
Starting point is 00:10:28 Yeah, that was good. Yeah, I think there should be a movie of Terry Gilliam making every movie, and I'll see that instead of the movie he made. Yeah, he could do that. That would be very interesting. Actually, he's really good on commentaries. Yeah, he is. Because he tells the truth, which is sometimes kind of brutal.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Yeah, and he's smart and funny. I like him. He's great on commentaries Yeah so Thumbs up to him Yeah Thumbs down to Some of his work I didn't even see
Starting point is 00:10:52 That Brothers Grimm thing That he did Oh you can't Well don't even I've tried twice I tried twice I Netflixed it twice Netflix won't even
Starting point is 00:10:59 Send it to you I get a good 20 minutes in And I'm out Oh I see I thought you were saying I go start making paella It'd be interesting.
Starting point is 00:11:06 You know how Netflix recommends stuff. It'd be fun if you asked for something and Netflix went, not for you. Not your cup of tea at all. We've been tracking you and you're not going to like it. That would be a great feature. Let's save ourselves a lot of trouble. I think you're right. I think that would be a great feature.
Starting point is 00:11:20 No, their recommendations are always so like, you know, it's just some actor was also in something else. You know, I don't want to see every Eric Stoltz movie just because I like The Fly 2.
Starting point is 00:11:35 Oh, the things that come into my head. So, okay, so your third one was The Fountain Head? Yeah, the
Starting point is 00:11:42 1949 King Vidor. So there was only one cut of that. Yes, correct. But it was Your third one was The Fountainhead? Yeah, the 1949 King Vidor. So there was only one cut of that. Yes, correct. But it was, Anne Rand wrote the teleplay. She wrote the script. And it's a dogmatic book.
Starting point is 00:11:58 It's a great book, Fountainhead. But hilarious movie. Beautifully shot. And then it just punches you in the face over and over and over again with its man versus the masses message. Well, gee, guess what's rocketing to the top of my Netflix queue? You'll like it. Alright. We'll do another episode
Starting point is 00:12:16 of the show where you'll come back and we'll talk about it. Okay, good. That's one of those classics that I've never seen. It's really good. Can I do one line from it? Sure. It's Patricia Neal and Gary Cooper. And at one point, the guy who's not Gary Cooper. What?
Starting point is 00:12:33 I said I haven't heard of either of them. At one point, the guy who's not Gary Cooper proposes to Patricia Neal. And her line to him is this. And I've used it. If I ever feel the need to punish myself for some unforgivable sin, I'll marry you. It is awesome. It's so brutal. I thought that was
Starting point is 00:12:53 Catherine Hepburn. They all sounded that way. She won't upset and I'll this. Cigarette cocktail. Well, fantastic. That was an awesome segment Really proud of it Let's move on I'm so retarded
Starting point is 00:13:13 I have to keep my cell phone as my watch Are you texting? I'm texting some folks You should see this pair on this one No I've been Checking the time on my phone because we run a tight ship here at I Love Movies with Doug Benson. But my rack does look good.
Starting point is 00:13:33 It's really, I was going to say. I like it. It's a new bra. Yeah, it's a great bra. Thanks. I mean, I doubt I would want to see it just on its own. I like its work with you I don't you know The solo stuff
Starting point is 00:13:51 I'm not that into it It's kind of boring after a while Once I've jerked off I don't need to look at it anymore It's like porn In addition To tons of TV roles And cartoon voiceovers You were in the movie Let's Talk About Sex.
Starting point is 00:14:08 Oh, but let's not talk about that movie. You and me. Let's talk about all the good things and the bad things. That may be. That may be. Now, shut up. No questions from the audience. No, Julia Roberts' movie Was Something to Talk About
Starting point is 00:14:25 Which was also based on a song So, interesting coincidence Oh, that was She was in that She was in that with Dennis Quaid And some other lady Mary DeKevin Bacon Kara Kyra Sedgwick
Starting point is 00:14:38 Kara Sedgwick I got a great Kara Sedgwick story Do you want to hear it? Do it, give it It's not really that good Do it When I first lived in Hollywood She lived in the same building as me. And I had a roommate.
Starting point is 00:14:49 And one time she came over to borrow something and she knocked on the door and I opened the door and she was a nice enough lady or whatever. So I went to give her whatever she wanted. But she had a puppy with her, a little new dog, and it immediately ran into my roommate's room and took a shit on the floor. So every time I see Kara Sedgwick in anything, I think of her puppy shitting on my roommate's floor. And how funny it is when you don't have dogs and your roommate comes home and there's shit on the floor. It's just a funny moment, you know? Because I didn't clean it up.
Starting point is 00:15:24 So yeah, that was a movie you'd rather forget about. Let's talk about sex. Yeah, that was That was a A movie you'd rather forget about Let's Talk About Sex Yeah That was my first First movie Yeah And we shot it in Florida It was kind of pseudo It was horrible
Starting point is 00:15:31 It was horrible It was kind of like Documentary style almost Or something Yeah you know It was that A lot of man on the street Interviews
Starting point is 00:15:37 Yeah yeah Cut with your acting Three chicks And we're gonna make One was black An interview show Yeah And one had enormous
Starting point is 00:15:43 Jugs Uh huh And um Long hair And you were perfect And I No I was like We're going to make an interview show. Yeah. And one had enormous jugs and long hair. And you were perfect. No, I was like the hard ass. Oh, no. And no, we were trying to make a TV show. And it's so bad. It's so bad.
Starting point is 00:15:57 I think I saw it. The thing that happened behind the scenes that was so interesting was the father of the producer, who was 60-something, survivor from Bergen-Belsen, started dating Madonna's current girlfriend. So Madonna tried to shut down production all over town. Her current girlfriend, Guy Ritchie?
Starting point is 00:16:15 No. Oh, sorry, not current. At the time, she had a lady. You know, Madonna's having, at the time we're recording this, she's having trouble getting an African baby. Well, that's because
Starting point is 00:16:24 it's a shitty move, what she's doing. Yeah. Well, it's hard to get African babies, too. The baby's not an orphan. It's got a dad and a grandmother. I tried to smuggle an African baby back from Africa, and they found it because I put it in my shampoo bottle. So. All right.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Let's check the time. We're doing good on time Here we go Yeah, doing great So let me ask you this You played Binky Which I already love That the character's name is Binky Binky Beauregard
Starting point is 00:16:56 Binky Beauregard, really? Binky Beauregard In Man of the House Mm-hmm And that was your voice? Yeah I was a cheerleading coach For the Texas Longhorns.
Starting point is 00:17:07 She was all real jumpy and high-strung. Well, it sounds like it was a fun part to play. It was. How was Tommy Lee Jones? He's really intimidating. Yeah, did you get lost in his face? In a crag mine. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Did you try to rock climb his face? He doesn't like that. He'll swipe you away and go, stop it, girl, or whatever. I can't do his voice. But he was nice to me. I don't know why. But he scared the bejesus out of everybody. And he would take the script and say,
Starting point is 00:17:39 God damn, these are all TV writers. Don't know how to write a movie. And he'd throw the script on the ground and then get down on his hands and knees with a pen. We're going to rewrite this shit right now. Page it. What would you say? How would you say it?
Starting point is 00:17:54 And I'm looking at the writers, and it's my first day. I'm shaking head to toe. I guess I would invert. I'd say Texas in the second part of the... That's a God damn... That's rotting. And then he... It was terrifying,
Starting point is 00:18:08 but he was kind of charming and hilarious at the same time. He treated Harrison Ford the same way on The Fugitive. Now, would you jump into that ravine? Or... Now, you've got two movies in the can, which means they're finished Not that they take place in bathrooms Oh wait
Starting point is 00:18:28 I think Can you even remember them? I should have wrote them down It's actually four Four? Yeah I have a really bad lifetime movie coming up Okay but that doesn't count What?

Starting point is 00:19:05 thriller called uh either sublime or hospital with um tv's uh tom cavanaugh they should call it sublime hospital that that would be good yeah because they they never are it's about it's never nobody's ever gone this hospital is sublime you know that's weird unless the sublime song is playing in the corridors then they might say oh wait oh the the guy who plays the bad guy in that is um washington from welcome back cotter and he's really really scary and creepy i swear to god boom boom washington what's his name uh it's three names. Jacobs, Lawrence, Hilton, Jacobs. That's not right. Someone knows.

You brought up Cotter. Did you say that because this guy, all he would talk about on the set was that he used to be Washington?

Starting point is 00:22:56 John Cryer was not in About Last Night. I thought it was Rob Lohan to be more. I'm in About Last Night. I'm not kidding you. I'm in it. There's a scene where it's like a New Year's I'm not kidding you I'm in it There's a scene Where it's like A New Year's Eve party
Starting point is 00:23:07 I was an extra in it But there's a scene Where there's a New Year's Eve party And Demi Moore And Rob Lowe Have an argument And they storm out
Starting point is 00:23:15 One after the other One leaves And then the other one leaves So I get like Brushed up against By both of them And it's tremendous Like why are people

Starting point is 00:23:31 because they'll hit me as they leave, you know? And they did. And it worked. Oh, my God. Yeah. That's so worth seeing. Yeah, it's really good. Check it out.
Starting point is 00:23:39 I was an extra in a lot of movies, and that's the only one where every once in a while I'll get a phone call or an email saying, are you in About Last Night? Oh, wow. Because I'm right center screen. And Ed Zwick, great director, held on my take for a second after they breezed through. It doesn't go by as quickly as it should.
Starting point is 00:23:59 That's like the background dream. Yeah. The extra player dream. I did a similar thing in Glory. Matthew Broderick and Denzel Washington. You're making all of this up. Both scraped me
Starting point is 00:24:09 with their bayonets. Okay, so, as listeners of the show, I just, as, thank you, as listeners of the show know, I, of which there are apparently
Starting point is 00:24:22 two or three of them, I've gotten comments. One of the comments on one of the podcasts said, not a fan, was their entire comment. Of me, of my guests, of movies, or of Leonard Maltin, because that's what we do at the end of the show each week, is we played Leonard Maltin game. It was invented by Brian Posehn and I. And I tried to walk you through it backstage because you weren't familiar with it. And basically, you go ahead and pick out a movie.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Try to make it in the 90s or the 2000s. And basically what Paget is going to do is try to stump me by telling me the year the movie came out and then listing off the cast names from the bottom up. And I'll try to stop her when I think I know it,
Starting point is 00:25:08 and hopefully I will know it. It's a very suspenseful game. 1972. Ooh, that's not the 90s or the 2000s, but let's do this. It's a pretty famous movie from 72? Yes, very, actually. Okay, very good.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Oh, I will see if I know it. Yeah, I bet you'll get it at three. Okay. Ellen Gere. That's the see if I know it. Yeah, I bet you'll get it at three. Okay. Ellen Gere. That's the last name? Last name. All right. So far, all I know is she was on The Waltons.
Starting point is 00:25:34 And that's not a movie. Charles Tyner. I think I know who that is, but that doesn't help. Cyril Cusack. That's supposed to be the giveaway name? said i'd get it i'd get it in three now you're gonna get it now you're gonna get it okay one more vivian pickles come on vivian pickles is in it um I believe she plays the mom on Friends, right? I don't know. You were on it.
Starting point is 00:26:07 Who's mom? The only one who was there when I was there was Terry Gar. Oh, right. Because she's the Geller mom, I think. Vivian Pickles is... I think so. Maybe I'm wrong on that one. Okay, here it goes.

Starting point is 00:27:18 The show can go over a couple minutes. Okay. It's just if someone only has a half an hour to listen to it, it'll be like a cliffhanger. If they stop. Okay, here's a fun one. Okay, okay. Bill Murray. Whoa, whoa, what year?
Starting point is 00:27:33 That's the key. 1986. Razor's Edge. Excellent guess, but Bill Murray wouldn't have been the last name. Oh, oh, I thought you were... On the movie that he starred in. Oh, it's a last name. 1970, what?
