Starting point is 00:00:00 Tony Mousante! Tony Masanti? Tony Masanti. I really like that guy's name. It's a great name. It really is. I think Tony in general is a good name. For sure.

And a Tony Mousante, that's going to be a guy that you're going to for like advice. I need to see what Tony Mousante thinks about this. Do you think you invite Tony Mousante to your daughter's wedding to just like bless the day? Tony Mousa is going to ask you for a favor and you can't refuse it on today of your daughter's wedding.
Starting point is 00:01:06 That's right. Katie. Who's Tony Mesante? The lead actor in this film playing Sam Dolmus. Oh, okay. I liked him. I thought he was very charismatic. Handsome fella?
Starting point is 00:01:26 His hair can be described only as luxurious. Yeah, for sure. And he can wear tan like a mothfucker. He's wearing, you know what? I think too much khaki in this movie. Yeah, but he's offsetting it with a black shirt, which I appreciated. Black turtlene khakis? What are you working at the gap? Yeah It's 1970, what do you want from him?
Starting point is 00:01:48 I want them to stop mirroring images because occasionally his moles on the other side? It's like the Woody Woodpecker tattoo in Raising Arizona. How it flips from... Oh, Nick Cage has a tattoo of Woody Woodpecker on his arm, and it's on different arms, depending on what scene it is. Weird. This is the movie that started at all, Katie. What?
Starting point is 00:02:17 Of the Argento, shallow movies. Really, this is his first of this sort of... This is his directorial debut. Oh, you're kidding? No, this is this is th this is this is th th th this is th This is the th This is the big thi thi thi. This is thi. This is thi. It thi. It thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's on the the the the the thi. first of this this sort of this this is his directorial debut oh you're kidding no this is the big this is the one wow that's why I'm bummed that it's only on YouTube but not available like again for the criterion collection I agree and also watching this on YouTube is a little bit toub because there's no subtitles so it's a lot of just guessing what people are saying. I have, there's multiple phone conversations and I have notes that are just like, well, I have one side of this conversation.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Yeah, whenever the person was talking through the phone, it was just like, I'm sure you're saying something threatening. Yes, this movie opens up with black leather gloves, a typewriter, a black background, like it's giving you everything you want from an Argento Gialo movie. I was like, oh, those gloves inspired the movie pieces. 100%? In which they are going to try to cram pieces into a jigsaw puzzle. And it wants them get frustrated and just start
Starting point is 00:03:25 punching the piece in. Get the fuck in there. That fit! I'm glad that you found the YouTube link for this because I was watching it on my DVD and my DVD's quality is worse than the YouTube quality which is insane. Is it bootleg? It might be. it also has one of the menu options is Dario Orgento's website. That's so weird. Oh, that is weird. Hmm. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:03:53 Fucking Dario Origento. What the fuck? So this movie has. That is weird. Hmm. Oh my god. Fuck Dario Wichento. What the fuck? So this movie has everything that I love, like nonsense characters. Mm-hmm. Like, uh, what's the friend's name? Um, is it Monty, I think?
Starting point is 00:04:21 The guy with a mustache? The cop? No. The red-ha The cop? No, uh The red-haired guy? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think that's Carlo Okay. Oh, yeah, yeah When he like fixed up the newspaper and he goes, ah usual crap Whatever he says okay, so he was at the beginning. Yeah, he must have been and then I must have forgotten forgotten about him entirely because when he came back at the end I was like, who's this guy? Speaking of I've seen this movie four or five times in my life. I sat down and went, I have no idea who the fucking killer is.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Really? Interesting. I'm gonna blame a lockdown for my brain not functioning at peak performance. I just read this interesting article in the Atlantic about how our brains are basically like muting a lot of stuff. In it one woman saw a photo of a close friend that she hadn't seen in like a year since pre-pandemic and she could not recognize her. Yeah, yeah. This is crazy. Yeah, it's not. It's insane. Hey, I don't even know what I'm doing here. As soon as you guys can, please, please get vaccinated. Go get get vaccinated so we can end this. Living nightmare. Yep. And I really want to be in the same room with my friend again. So let's make this happen people. Maybe next week we can record outside. I hope so. Don't tell them. S. S. S. S. S. S. S, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. Yeah. S. S. Yeah. S. Yeah. th. Yeah. S. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. th. th. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. S. S. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah record outside. I hope so. Shh, don't tell them. Why? There's
Starting point is 00:05:46 no cicadas yet. No one will be mad. They love the cicadas yet, they love us. Did they? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, well, sorry, then there's no cicadas yet, guys. I'm sure that we'll be. Do we're the one night we were out there and that like group of people with lights on their bike road by and we are both mesmerized. Yes, that was so fun. Remember the time we saw a gang of rollerbladers go by too? Yeah. That was really fun too. Oh, good old days. I can't wait to get back to the porch recordings. Honestly. Who knew? Anyway. So Sam is a down on his luck writer in, I guess, Rome. He's ghost written a book about birds for his friend. And he just got paid and now he's going to be going back to the states in a day and a half.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Right. And on his walk back to his house, you're never going to guess what happens. What does he witness a murder? He witnesses a murder, but he can't quite figure out what's going on. That is so strange. I'm glad Dario Argento never used that again. Two to three hundred times. I'm glad he never, like, I'm, a lot of things in this movie are just so, so similar to things in other movies that we've done, where it's just like, like, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, thio thio tho, thio, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thr-I, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th, thi, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thri, thri, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi,s in other movies that we've done where it's just like, oh Dario, like, look at this long-haired brawless woman bleeding out on the floor, you know.
Starting point is 00:07:10 I was thinking it's about something, I was like, I wonder if I just have a thing for like 70s chic in ladies, or if Dario are Gentile and I have very similar tasks in ladies? Because all these women are insanely beautiful. Yeah, he certainly has a specific type that he uses, which is very wafy women with large, deep-set eyes, high cheekbones and the center part. And sometimes giant knockers. That's true. That second woman who's killed? Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:07:49 I was like, oh, this is like living playboy. This is insane. That thing she was wearing looked genuinely terrible to sleep in. And she was alone. She was alone. Put on a t-shirt, madam. I mean, if you're going to, if you're that close to just sleeping boobs out, just sleep boobs out lady.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Let them, don't even put this like weird, stiff layer of mesh over them. It was like sleeping in a crepe paper shirt. It was gross. Yeah, it felt like if you rolled over the wrong way, it might cut you. So yeah, he witnesses this murder where this woman ends up, or no, attempted murder, she doesn't die. But this, like, this whole scene of, even when he like is across the street and he looks at the building, it's so like, like, like, a the the, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th. Like, th. Like, th. Like, th. Like, th. Like, th. Like, th. Like, th. Like, th. Like, th. Like, th. Like, th. Like, th.this whole scene of even when he like is across the street and he looks at the building, it's so like that Argento eye for detail of like color and the way things pop and how your eye is drawn to things. And then the weird sculptures that are in there, they're like fucking Beetlejuice level weird. Was it an art gallery? Yeah. Okay, but they also lived there, but it was also the next door to the zoo.
Starting point is 00:09:10 Uh-huh. Yeah, that's how you do when you're an artist. You live next to the zoo. Fine. That's where Monica and Alberto Rainieri run their art gallery. So, so what, what Sam thinks he's seen is a very tall man wearing like a long trench coat and a polar hat? What kind of hat is that? Fedora maybe? Fedora? Stab in Malady. And then jumping down off the, like the balcony and running away? Yeah. He... So she, for a really long time like the balcony and running away. Yeah. He, so she for a really long time crawls across the floor going, uh, and he's like, uh, help. He does not like break a window. He does not like go look for help. He's just like, help. Hmm, this is a problem.
Starting point is 00:10:11 What about the hilarious scene where the guy comes up and is like, he has his nose smashed against the glass. He's like, I can't hear you. What are you saying? I can't hear you? But was that her husband? No, that was just some street rando. Weird. Wait, weird.
Starting point is 00:10:27 That was just some Argento weirdness. Okay, that's fair. So even when the police and like paramedics or whatever get there, there's no rush with getting on with it, like saving this woman who's clinging to life. They're like, wow, look, the killer locks him in, or who we assume is the killer. And I'm like, what? Wait, though, who does?
Starting point is 00:10:50 It's, it's, it's, the husband locks him in there. Why? I don't know. It doesn't make a lick a goddamn sense. Wait. Because you see a black-gloved hand. A black-gloved hand pushes the button that locks him into that, into the, like, coyote. Because it turns out later that the, like, spoiler, Monica is the murderer, the woman who's been stabbed. But her husband has also been murdering
Starting point is 00:11:17 on her behalf. Who did he kill? I don't remember, like one of the, like, one of the, like one of the people, because there's this whole thing where like, the whole thing of the two different voices that are like calling them up and like, ah, haba, habad, habadah, habada, habada, habada, abda, abda. And the guy's like, oh, if you see on these wave-like things, these are different wavelengths, which are different people's voices on different wavelengths. That's right, he says to him, like, what did you notice about these? And Sam is like, one was bigger than the other, like real eagerly. And the guy's like, that's right. He ruffles. A is the first letter of the alphabet.
Starting point is 00:11:55 He ruffles Sam's hair and gives him a lollip. Yeah, and Sam's like into it. He's like, I got that one. So the cop show up eventually and the lead detective like walks up to the door and is staring at Sam like this fucking guy. I'm going to make him solve this crime. Well first I'm going to convince him that he's the prime suspect. And then I'm going to take him to every crime scene and let him walk around a little and tell him everything I know. And I'm going to steal his passport so he the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. Hea. Hea. Hea. Hea. He's. He's. He's their their their their their. Hea. Hea. He. He. their. their. their. their. their. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. the the the the the the the the the the the the te. te. te. the the te. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to take him to every crime scene and let him walk around a little and tell him everything I know. And I'm going to steal his passport so he can't leave. Yeah, I don't think you can do that.
Starting point is 00:12:32 And Sam's like, I'm going to call, I'm going to call the consulate and see, no, I'm just going to cancel my plans. Yeah, wait. Sam's yelling at him, like, it is, it's illegal to be questioned for a murder. Like, he's like, what you're doing is illegal. And it's like, it's not illegal to be questioned for murder in another country. But like, as usual, the American, and I'm using the largest finger, finger quotes with American. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:59 American knows nothing about it, but is yelling about it. So the very confusing scene where Sam is walking home in the fog and a man tries to kill him with a table tennis paddle baby or I don't know what he's trying to hit him with? But that old lady has the hilarious scene where she's like, hey, look out. I see, is this, I thought he threw like a bucket of water on him because it looked like he was just trying to ruin his jacket and have that lady scream about it. No, the guy tries to on him and makes more sense. The murder is also a hard old globe trotter. Do, do, do, do, do, the killer tries once the lady says, hey, look out. And the guy runs away, like, the fuck? What's going on?
Starting point is 00:14:04 So who was that then? I don't. Was that the husband? That's the husband? That's the... I see. I? I. I? I. I? I. I? I. I? I. I. I? I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I see. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that? I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I. I. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. the. that. the that. the that. that. the the the that, I see. the that, the the the th. the the that, I see. the the the the the the the the the the the the the fuck? What's going on? So who was that then? Was that the husband? That's the husband. Yeah, I think that's supposed to be the, like, in retrospect, that's the husband. Don't tell him my wife. All right. We get one of many Sam laying in bed sleeping about the crime,
Starting point is 00:14:22 instead of sleeping. I sleep about things too though, to be fair. I've been sleeping so shitty lately that I think I'm just like, sleeping? Oh buddy, I'm sorry. It's all good. Cut to the police station. All the cuts are super quick too. There's no like transitionary scenes.
Starting point is 00:14:44 Mm-mm. And all the cuts are super quick too. There's no like transitionary scenes. Of the cop going, bring in the perverts. Yeah, it's not like a medically diagnosed term. What is the recognition on the, because everyone's like, yes, a pervert? Well, you've got the guy who exposes himself, and that like, they're just like, what the fuck is going on? Oh, right, they're like, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, the fuck is going on? Oh right they're like reading off their rap sheets. Yeah and then there's like a really shitty trans joke and cut two science guy and sunglasses. I do like using the alias Ursula Andres though. That was
Starting point is 00:15:21 amazing. That's very funny to me. Also in this point they're like scanning over the text of a criminal record because there's no English subtitles you're just like yes yes Italian words hmmm ravioli eh? Ah pasta fajul. I just made it so good we eat it like like once a week in the winter. You have to send me your. I lost my recipe for it years ago. Yeah, I'll send it. It's just the one from the Dom Deloese cookbook. Eat this. You'll feel better. Uh, that sounds perfect. Yeah, I'll send it to you tomorrow. Thank you very much. Fajul. So we get the science guy and sunglasses. the science. the science. the science. thau. the science. the science. thi. th. th. th. the science. thi. th. th. the science. th. the science. th. th. th. th. th. th. the science. th. the science. the science. th. th. the the the the the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I's. I's. I's. I's. I'll. I'll. I'll. I'll th. I'll tole. I'll. I'll. I'll t too. I'll. I'll tole. I'll tole. I'll th. computers are going to solve this crime. And they're looking at all like the fibers and the blood splatter and he says something like, for all we know, the guy could be an elegant cigar smoker.
Starting point is 00:16:14 What? What? What? Oh, what are you saying? Because there was like fine clothes and expensive tobacco residue and it's like, Ah, yes, find me the most elegant cigar smokers. Like walking around a cigar bar being like, not, hmm, the spoke, but not elegant. Tasteful, perhaps elegant.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Hey, boss, I found a distinguished cigar smoke over here. Didn't think that'll do? I said, elegant! Botcher ruse, but forget it, I can't. I'm just gonna stop. I said elegant! Ha ha ha! And so the cop puts Sam on the case.
Starting point is 00:17:07 Yeah, they immediately decide that he's no longer the prime suspect. He's now a Jala web sleuth. It's probably because of that button on his fly. Did you see that? He buttoned all the way down to his balls. Yeah, sometimes you're gonna air them out. It's just like you could literally be sitting there and unbutton the bottom button and your his balls would topple out. Such a weird pair of pants. It feels like a very, very, very true. that feels like a very,
Starting point is 00:17:35 thinn't to wear. Like, that's very, very, very true. But I guess it's like probably also thi-like like like. Like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like their their their their thin. Like, like thin. Like thin, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like they they their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. their. their. their. their. their. their very true. But I guess it's like probably also because his girlfriend is so fucking horny. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're like looking at clippings of dead murdered women and she's like, oh, Sam, ew, lady. Those, those photos of the murdered women are so, with licentious work,. They're so like, it's so like suggestive and everyone's panties are around their ankles. And it's just like, yeah, yeah, okay Dario, dial it back just 10 points.
Starting point is 00:18:16 That's all I need, buddy. He cannot bring himself to do that though, because in the attack of the woman with the dress or the night dress that might stab her. Yeah. because in the attack of the woman with the dress that might or the night dress that might stab her. Yeah, my gosh. The ripping off of the underwear is really fucking upsetting. Sure, and then the implication of what the murderer is about to do with the knife. Yeah, it sucks actually. I get it. I get it, but like, ugh, through a 20-21 lens I just don't want to watch it. And I'm not saying, oh, it's problematic. I'm just saying, guy, come on. I feel like this falls into like the, this will be shocking.
Starting point is 00:18:49 Yeah, and I'm sure it was, and it's, you know, it's of a time or whatever. How did you feel about the antique dealer? I mean, I voted him for murderer. Okay. Maybe not, maybe not the main murderer, but he's definitely taken a life. I felt that way about Carlo as well. Yes, 100%. I assumed Carlo was the murderer when he showed back up. Because he knows all the shit about the bird.
Starting point is 00:19:17 Yeah, for sure. Oh, I know what that is. I know what that sound is because it's in my yard. I just found out that you know where I live where I live where I live, the zoo and the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th, the th, and th, and th, th, and th, and th, and th you know where I live. Fuck, oh God, do you like it? Oh my God, I live by the zoo and the art gallery! Maybe it's just having seen so many of these movies, and not just the Argento ones, but any of these like the Jala movies, like literally anybody could be the killer at any given moment. Like, Deep Red, that one guy's mom was the killer? Or... Spoilers for Deep Red, it's the one guy's mom. Or Tenabre, where the guy who's getting attacked is actually the murderer? Wait, I already can't remember who the killer was in Tennebray. It's the author.
Starting point is 00:19:57 Yes, there's initially one killer. And then he, when he, when he, stay he was standing, yeah, when he steps aside his ear was his own ear and it wasn't his own ear yes that was like a month ago I should be so proud of remembering it but I also feel like if you do bird with the crystal plumage deep red and tenorbrae you kind of see like like argento perfect what he's trying to do but the time he hits tenabre i feel like he is nailed what he is setting out to do with Burr with the Crystal Blumage. They, yeah, it does feel like slightly different versions of the same film.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Mm-hmm. Oh, for sure, for sure. Yeah. I mean, when he, at that opening scene, which is, like, thrown, the opening scene, which is, like, like, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the woman wearing white, I was like, oh, I've seen this before. I've actually watched this movie before. And then I was like, are we sure we haven't done this? Like. No, this guy's a writer, not a jazz pianist or a writer. Or a writer? Oh my god. Oh my god, Dario. I was missing Dariah Nicolode in this movie. I was like, why isn't she?
Starting point is 00:21:08 RIP, who's recently passed. God rest her soul. I was like, oh man, she should be in this. She's always a joy when she shows up in these movies. There was just like sort of not a role for a sassy lady in this movie. It's true. All the ladies had to be deferential to the men in this movie. Deferential, helpless, and ready to be killed at any time.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Or to a... Yeah. Well, you know, you gotta fuck and then die, so... Mm-hmm. Uh-huh. So there's this whole thing, too, of like the killer taking photographs of the women that they're going to kill. Is there? Yeah, because in the opening scene, like the short-haired lady, they're taking photographs
Starting point is 00:21:54 of her and then the woman with the uncomfortable teddy on, they're taking photographs of her as she's walking around at like the horse track or whatever. Do those ever come back? No, no, not yet. No. Not yet. No, not yet. thiiiiiiiiiiiiii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, tho, tho, thi. thi. thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. Is thi. Is thi. Is thi. Is thi. Is thi. Is thi. Is thi. Is thi. Is thi. Is thi. Is thi. Is thi. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, thi. th. thi. thi. So, thi. So, there, there, there, there, there's there's the, there's there's thee there theee there, theeeeea theea, thea, thea back? No, no, not yet. Maybe in a different movie. Oh, okay, and we've also learned about this painting That he that Sam has gone to the antique store looking for right right right, right, and he gets a photograph of And then he hangs up photo he takes down a giant painting above their couch and hangs up this like 8 by 11 piece of paper printed out. Yeah, yeah. And she's like, this bothers me and it's like, look at the too fucking small over the wall.
Starting point is 00:22:35 Oh, and it's a woman being viciously murdered in a snowbank. I mean, you can't see that for quite some time, though. You have to get really close. You have to get really close. And then she sees it and she's like, ow, ow. Like she's a horn dog for weird shit. Which is fine, like whatever you're into. Fine, but don't like try to fuck your boyfriend looking at a painting of a woman being stabbed to death and then later be like, oh, I don't want you involved in like stabbings. Clearly you're into stabbings is what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:23:09 That's the thing. That didn't, you know what, halfway through my logic I was like, what are you saying? Aren't people kind of titillated by all that true crime stuff though? Isn't that like part of the draw of it? I mean, I don't find it sexy. Is that what you're asking? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Does crime make me horny?
Starting point is 00:23:33 Are you horny for crime? I'm not. I don't find it horny at all. I find it just so bleak. And I like to just roll around th, to just, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I that, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I th, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I thi, I thi, I thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, thi, thi, thi, that, that are so bleak. Okay, all right. All right. Because I can't have a normal brain. I think I'm just thinking of all the people who like talk about how attractive like, uh, uh, fuck. Ted Bundy.
Starting point is 00:23:54 Ted Bundy and Dahmer. Yeah, people. No, nobody thinks Domer is. Oh, that's not true. No, no. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. th. th. th. th. th. who's the guy with the the the pentagram carved in his palm Why can't I think of Richard Ramirez? Yes, yes Like all those people like you know like like I remember women fawning over Richard Ramirez for sure and he had the worst fucking teeth. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, he's a nart I mean I mean above all that he was a terrible man he was a terrible man besides all the murdering the busted busted busted busted busted busted busted busted busted busted busted busted busted busted busted busted busted. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he's he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the he the he he he he he he was a terrible man. Besides all the murdering a busted grill. I mean, no, yeah, I don't get that part of it at all. Yeah, so I assume that there's a certain like titillation to all of it that people. I just want to keep saying titillation if you know why. I think you do. I think a lot of people are just fascinated on like why people do the things they do. For sure. Yeah. Without it being, without wanting to fuck about it.
Starting point is 00:24:47 As someone who has read a book about necrophiliacs, yes, I agree. Did it make you want to fuck about it? No, no, no. It's not my thing though. Anyway, moving on from this weird digression. So the detective keeps just bothering him and like showing up in his house and drinking his coffee? And so he's taken his passport so that he can't leave and then halfway through the movie, he thrusts the passport back upon him and is like, get out!
Starting point is 00:25:21 Is this just like him being like, oh god, this is super shitty. I should stop doing this to this dude. I think he's just like, I wanted to be your friend. It's clear we're not going to be like good friends, so I guess you can go. Because it seems like he just wants to spend time with him. What a weird way to try to make friends with somebody. Stealing their means of egress. I've got your car keys. We're best buds now. You wouldn't have a sleepover because you're gonna. By the way, can you do my job for me?
Starting point is 00:25:53 Yeah. When are you going to solve this crime though? So there's this whole thing where the cops are tailing him to make sure that he's safe, because he's now a cop. And because he's now a cop and also because he's now like a target? Right, from whom ever? But why? Why does that snakeman in the yellow jacket run down the police officer and then try to shoot him on the streets. And then why does he just casually stroll away while Sam doesn't chase him? Because later, they're like, well, who was it? And he's like, I didn't see his face clearly. And it's like, you would have seen his face clearly if you chased him, you fucking ding dong.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Well, he did follow him into the former Boxers Association meeting where they all wear blue caps and yellow jackets. That reminded me of that scene in the witches where he like walks in and realizes it's a convention of witches, but it's just a convention of, I was like I don't speak Italian and I saw pugilie and I was like, maybe it's boxing. Yeah, the big B on the back to denote boxing the the the the the the the the the the box the the box the box the the box. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. like maybe it's boxing. Yeah the big B on the back to denote boxing to you. No because I think the word is pugililly. But it's like that guy is so like sinewy and like leathery and I was like nothing I mean maybe I guess maybe ban some weight maybe I'm I should be thinking about that but. Feather weight. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Is it lighter or heavier? I don't? It's that? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No? No. I? No. I? No. I, I, I, I, I, I, I to. No. I to. No? No? No? No? No. No? No? No? No. No? No? No. No? No. No? No? No. No. I? No. I? No. I? No. I? No. I? No. I? No. I? No. I. I. I? No. I. I. I? No. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, the. I, I, I the. I the. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I the. I the. I weight maybe I'm I I should be thinking about that but feather weight yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:27:27 it later or heavier is that lighter or heavier I don't know isn't Bantam a chicken I just like he's so angular that like trying to punch him would be nigh impossible that's why he was such a good pugilie so so they have this like chase scene in a weird truck yard. Yeah. The the truckyard empties onto like a city street into a like well-traveled bustling business district and I was like, what is this city? He just fires into a city street and nothing happens to him. I love that he screws on a silencer and the gun is loud as shit.
Starting point is 00:28:07 Oh, God. Why do I have a note that says Grandpa Kellerman. Oh, Grandpa Killer Man. Sorry. It still doesn't make sense to me, Alan. You walk me through the wall? Because that old guy kind of looks like... Grandpa Kellerman is like an Aldi's brand baked good. Grandpa Kellerman's Apple Plys!
Starting point is 00:28:37 I know. Is this just a pie? I mean, I'd eat it. Grandpa Kilerman's. He looked the guy who, in the yellow jacket. I mean, I'd eat it. Grandpa Kiliman's. He looked the guy in the yellow jacket kind of looked like my grandfather. Oh, God. Oh, thanks, Otter, correct. You really made me look like a moron. on. When he runs into where the boxers are and there's just the guy wandering around going,
Starting point is 00:29:09 Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Johnson. They're like, English, we're speaking English. Hey kid, can you tell me where the guys with the yellow jackets are? Yes, they're over there. Mrs. Johnson? Mrs. Johnson. Oh my God. Paging Mr. Herbin.
Starting point is 00:29:34 This fucking Dario. Funny. He loves those weird slices of life. There's just like a lot of weird details in this movie. Like the, there's a scene at a crime scene where cops are standing around talking and there's a large framed photo on the wall and one of the cops is just standing with his resting his hand on the wall like holding himself up with his hand and his hand is just on the photo? Why? Why would you ever do that?
Starting point is 00:30:07 He just stands there for like the solid two minutes of the scene, hand on photo. Yeah. And then if the end of scene he lets go and walks away. Yeah, I mean, the mix, it's perfect. Okay, fine. Fine. Another woman gets killed this time with a straight razor. She I love her look. She's wearing like a leather mini and vest which could like so easily go biker or like breakings,
Starting point is 00:30:37 but she makes it look so chic. It's such a great outfit. I think I know what you're going to be wearing next fall. I can't, I'm too old for that. What? You're never too old for a leather mini. Oh that's nice. You're nice. You're nice. What about what he goes to like, he meets with the one guy who's like, hey, can you tell me who I could talk to to get information, that guy whose name is so long? Because he ends every sentence with so long?
Starting point is 00:31:16 What? He's always like, so long? At the end of everything, it's like his vocal tick that he does. Interesting. The stuttering, at the end of everything, it's like his vocal tick that he does. Interesting. The stuttering guy in the prison. Oh, the stuttering guy, yeah, yeah, yeah. With the gougly eyes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:31:32 Wow, he is fascinating looking. I do love the use of that guy when he's like, do I look like a pimp to you? And everyone's like, uh-huh. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. You you. I. I. I I you. I to. I to to to to to to to to do. I to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to like a pimp to you? And everyone's like, yeah, uh-huh. Yes, absolutely 100%. You're doing some crime. I don't know what it is, but you're doing it. I love how he's like fake crying scene, too. I thought that was very, very weird. Very spooky.
Starting point is 00:31:58 I love that he's not even the weirdest dude in this movie. When you said the guy he has he has he has he has he has he has he has he has he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to told. told. told. told. told. told. told. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to. to. to. to. to to. to. to to. to. to to to to to to th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th th th th th th th t t t t t t to. t the to. to. to. to t to to has to talk to you to get all the information, I thought you meant the guy who comes to his house who can find out any information for money. The guy who answers one way and then is like I'll be there at four. No, I'm not coming. He's like, it's just, it doesn't make any sense. Yes, like I feel like, again, like, we're like, like, I, yes, it does, like I feel like again like we're getting the world through the filter of Dario Argento and it's always just going to be slightly off. Yeah, just a little off kilter, huh?
Starting point is 00:32:33 Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. The killer calls him and this is where we get the weird clicking noise in the background when he records the call. They have like a giant tape recorder set up on their phone. I assume, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I the the the the the the the the the the the th. I th. I th. I the, and the, and the, and the, and the, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and it's, and it's, and it, th, th, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and th, and th, and the, and the, and the, and the the the the, and the the, the, the, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thra thra thra thracea thi thi thi a thro thi a thro thi a thi thi thi thi the background when he records the call. They have like a giant tape recorder set up on their phone. I assume the police brought it. I guess. And they aren't recording every call like by default as I think you would like hit record and then pick up the phone. They're waiting for the killer to call and then they hit record. They're like, wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on. Okay, okay, I'm ready for you now. The killer should have been like, are you recording? Yeah, oh, okay. Well, anyway, because I have no idea what they said. Something threatening, I presume. And laughed.
Starting point is 00:33:21 They laughed a lot too. Yeah, that's, yeah. There Yeah. Yeah. There was one phone call where you couldn't understand what they were saying and then like in the next scene, everyone's like, oh, Julia's in danger. And I was like, I get it. They threatened Julia, see? Thank you for clearing that up for those of us who didn't have subtitles on. So now that Sam has interviewed two men who can get information about anybody and still doesn't know what's going on, he thinks maybe he should look into the artist of the painting. Which I don't know why that wouldn't be one of your first steps, but for him it isn't. Can you walk me through the painting artist man? Yeah, so he lives in a brick house in the woods to
Starting point is 00:34:09 which there doesn't appear to be a door because you have to climb a ladder to the second floor like you're like like like he's fucking Rapunzel or something. Uh-huh. He gets in there and this guy is eccentric. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He says, I'm going through a mystical period. I only paint mystical scenes. Which, the painting he's working on is a red house with a moon above it. It's such a weird scene, like Sam sits down to eat? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:49 And then he's like throwing food on the floor like a god damn toddler, like that guy's not gonna find it later. And then he starts eating it and can't stop eating it. He loves it. He's like grabbing it out of the artist's hands. That doesn't seem like Sam, but okay. Well, what's he, what's he eating, Katie? What's the... Kittens?
Starting point is 00:35:15 He's eating kittens. He has him in a cage. And that's why he's on the second floor and he's boarded up the house so the cats can't escape. You know, I just want to point out that I have doors in my home and my cats don't escape. What now? You're just saying. Maybe you're not in your mystical period. No, I am certainly not in my mystical period.
Starting point is 00:35:38 And frankly, knowing me I will never go through a mystical period. The many is... Honestly, I feel like I'm missing out on something there. Without your mystical period? You can still make it happen? I mean, I guess I went through a mystical period in like late high school, early college in which I really enjoyed the work of rapper Mystical. Shit. That's your Mr. Cal period. Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Cal.
Starting point is 00:36:07 Danger! God damn it! I wish that's what this man was referring to. I was in my Nelly period a little while ago and now. The country grammar days. I'm envisioning a flow ride a moment for me coming up. Oh, you're only painting boots with the fur. Maybe some apple bottom jeans. That man is...
Starting point is 00:36:48 Wait, how is she wearing apple bottom jeans and baggy sweatpans? You gotta pull, you know, you pull one up over the other. Wait a minute! The whole club is looking at her because she's wearing two pairs of bands. Maybe it's cold out. Good baggy sweatpants under or over her apple bottom jeans. You can tell they're baggy because they're like muffin tuffing on top of her jeans. It's just like bunched up the whole way to the ankle. Look, I was sledding before I came to the club.
Starting point is 00:37:24 This is what kept me warm. Am I missing something here? I can't do this anymore now. We're almost done. We're come to to say, that man is like super interesting looking, the artist. He's just like so bizarre and like, like, they nailed eccentric in that man. Yeah, I think this movie's really well cast for its smaller roles, just of like people that you were like, oh, look at that guy. Yeah, I think this movie's really well cast for its smaller roles, just of like people that you are like, oh, look at that guy. For sure. So I don't really know what happens from here. It gets a little confusing for me.
Starting point is 00:38:16 Well, we should mention that he left Julia alone packing up their stuff before they leave then the next day or whatever. Oh, right. And she's super pissed and 100% right to be pissed because she's literally been threatened. Sure, yeah. Yeah. And she is like, I love it when she stands up to the detective and she's just like, the fuck are you doing him?
Starting point is 00:38:39 Leave him alone, he's not even Italian. He's not even Italian. She's like, and you sell his passport. That doesn't stop anybody. No one cares what Julia wants or thinks. No, no, I mean, she, well, she has a woman in this movie. And a Dario Argento movie. He really just loves the sound of women sobbing, so. Sure, or laughing maniacally.
Starting point is 00:39:04 You get tha the the the the the the the the the the. You get two moments. I love the scene where Julia's trying to escape not for the her sobbing because the killer comes and is Woody Woodpeckering his way into the house with a knife. But when she's trying to escape and she lodges that candelabra in the window, I think that's so cool-looking. Very cool looking. But it's also deeply unsafe to have only one exit from your home. Oh, it's true. Building code sucks. Well, they did mention earlier that this building was falling down and they were going to tear it down as soon as they moved out at the end of the week. I missed that. That's good to know. So you don't look like a nice enough place otherwise. Yeah, then there was nobody else living in the building was the other part of that. Got it, got it. So no one could save Julia when she was
Starting point is 00:39:56 under attack. Fine. So his friend has recognized the bird sound and tells him that there's one in the zoo. Wait, so his friend really was a bird expert? Uh-huh. Yeah. I missed that at the beginning because I sort of didn't really, I just glossed over that guy. And then here in my noose, I'm like, oh, glad you're an ornithologist, but I guess he actually is, so. I will dial back my tude by about 50%. That's great. Well, no, I actually am.
Starting point is 00:40:38 I'm really, come on, lady, leave me alone. I have a doctorate in ornithology. Oh. Fascinating. We can't. Not again. They go to the zoo where the bird with the crystal plumage, which is a Siberian bird that has beautiful white plumage that looks crystal.
Starting point is 00:41:06 It has to be kept from all the other animals because it doesn't get along with them. I was like, me too, bird. That bird has one of those doesn't play well with others t-shirts. It has a bumper sticker that says, I do what the voices in my head tell me, and everyone's like, visualize world peas. So it goes to the zoo, sees the bird and goes, that's where those people live.
Starting point is 00:41:41 Yeah, I'm so glad they fucking lived at the zoo. It's insane. And so all hell breaks loose. It turns out that they bust into the apartment. They think Raineri is trying to kill his wife. They are right. He ends up being pushed out the window by the cop and fucking Sam. There's two of them holding him.
Starting point is 00:42:13 Why can't they pull him up? Why does he fall? Like pooled, dummies, pool. The one, the cop lets go and he's like, oh Sam's got that. I thought you had that. Sam, don't let go with a suspect. And then you just go dying words are like, it's true, I'm the murderer. You don't have to protect your homicidal wife now. You can rat her out, you're dead.
Starting point is 00:42:40 Like, yeah, and if you're a serial killer, which we've been set up to believe that this person is, you don't just kill your wife mid-spree. That's just not how it works. You would never. That's how you get caught. It's true. It's true. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:55 But she has that same disease that Vince Vaughn had in Freaky where she can't stop a stabbing. Oh right, once she sees something that can die, she has to kill it. Meanwhile, his corpse is just laying on the ground and like there's a woman just combing her hair in front of it. Oh yeah, that was real weird, right? That was really weird. What do you do in Argento? I mean, I don't know if she was like a TV reporter or just a very vain woman. She just looked like a teen who had been wandering by, saw a mirror and decided to comb her hair. It's a bad shit.
Starting point is 00:43:31 And then like the next like cut is of a man's fist smashing a green bell pepper. Yelling his head was like a watermelon. He's that was like a watermelon. It's not a watermelon. Oh, this isn't a tiny watermelon that I just smashed. Sir? So, Sam's running all over asking every single person who sees on the street if they've seen Julia, maybe Julia went home, maybe look for her at home. So you and Rob were out on the town. Maybe you've
Starting point is 00:44:05 solved a recent spate of murders. Wait, I have or he has, we have. The two of you together. You've worked this out. While you're talking to the police, he disappears with your ornithologist friend. You just wandered the city looking for him? No, I go to where I know he'll be. Don't you just walk into random doors that street sweepers tell you that they saw him go into? Who's, what was that, was that Carl, where was that? Where was what? The building he went into?
Starting point is 00:44:41 Whose building was that? It was connected to the gallery? Why, tho? Why do they go in there?? th? th? th? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? tho? tho? tho. they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they th th th th th th th thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? thi? to? to? to? thi? to? to? to? to? to? to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. too? too? toooooo? tooooooooo? tooo? tooo? the? the? the? th into. Whose building was that? It was connected to the gallery. Why though? Why do they go in there? Because she wanted to kill everybody in the gallery, I think. Oh, she was with them. That's right. Yes. I forgot she was at right. Okay, now that makes sense because I thought, I thought, like, did they just run into an alley in this building and just happen to be connected to the gallery? Mm-hmm. No, that's on me. Again, I'll dial back my tude.
Starting point is 00:45:09 I'm sorry, Dario. It feels like the most random shit on earth when he's just wandering around and being like, have you seen a blonde woman in Italy? And they're like, oh yeah, that way. She's with an ornithologist. Does that help? And a known homicidal maniac. I love that he goes into this space. He doesn't see that his girlfriend is tied up on the floor. Certainly she could alert him. But he does see that Carlo is sitting in the chair holding the knife
Starting point is 00:45:50 Which means the murderer took time to set up a little scene for him Yeah, really has the murderer really has it out for him, which is weird because there's no reason for it Well, he interrupted her killing her husband initially? Yeah, but he gave her like the perfect alibi. Yeah, but as you know, she just likes to go, ha ha ha ha ha ha for an hour at him. It is very, very, very excessive. It was giving me strong Sherry Moon zombie vibes. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:46:30 At this point he realizes that he didn't like, because he's throughout this movie, he's like, I can't remember what I saw, theymea, of course he remembers it, which is the same thing that happens in, what's the one we did recently, where the kid can't remember who he saw killing someone through a plate glass window? Tenebrae. Tenebrae.
Starting point is 00:46:47 Sorry, I couldn't remember the name. Then he like suddenly has the memory again of where he didn't actually like not, he just misunderstood it. It was that she was trying to kill her husband. It's not that he couldn't remember, it's just that he's dumb. Yeah. There's this, Adrio Agento has this feeling that memories come and go. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:47:13 Fleeting, as it were. I don't know if that's like all that true, though. That they, you don't have them and then sometimes you just have them again. I mean, like, there's like there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's like, there's, there's, there's, the, the, you just have them again. I mean, like there's a movie called that he did called Four Flies on Grey Velvet that is all about someone trying to do that. Trying to remember something. That one's really hard to find, unfortunately, because it's really fun if you like watching this movie again.
Starting point is 00:47:38 This time with a rock guy. I do like that she used the art to her advantage and pins Tony Monsante to the floor with it in the gallery when she attacks him. It's very beetle juice later when Catherine O'Hara gets trapped by a sculpture. I wouldn't be surprised if Tim Burton didn't rip something off from this movie. On the news broadcast about what has happened, the news broadcaster calls the woman hopelessly insane, which I don't think you can say. That news broadcast had so much shit crammed into one room. There was like two couches in the room the size of a closet.
Starting point is 00:48:29 It was hilarious. And he, the cop is like pretty bad on camera. So he's like, I'm gonna turn it over to my friend here. And it's this other guy, I swear to God I've never seen him. No, he's never been in anything. He's never been in the movie. Why does does does does does does does??? Why does does does does does? Why does does? Why does? Why does? Why does does? Why does does? Why? Why does does? Why? Why? Why? Why does he? Why? Why does he? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why does he? Why? Why? Why? Why does he?

Why does he? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Whythe movie. Why does he have the news broadcast turned over to him at the end of this movie? When the cops on camera earlier, when he has to do the press conference, and they're like, what are you going to say? He's like, I don't know, make something up.
Starting point is 00:48:55 And he literally makes something up. We've got a bunch of clues we're about to solve this thing. No, they weren't weren't weren't weren't weren't weren't weren't weren't weren't weren't weren't weren't weren't weren't the tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. thi thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the the tho. thi. the thi. tho tho tho. tho. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thee th th thean. th th toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

We also forgot to mention that that Sam is saved by a cop running in and like karate chopping the murderer in the back of the hand to save Sam. That's pretty cool actually. Ah, the end. Can I tell you something? Please. The end. Can I tell you something? Please.
Starting point is 00:49:30 I was just reading earlier this week about this parasitic worm that it basically takes over the bodies of crickets. But in order for the worm to go through its last stage of development, it needs to happen in water, and crickets don't normally swim, so it will force the cricket to jump in the water drowning itself. Okay. But the crickets like down with it, you know? Sure. And so, what I think is that that's what's happening to me on this show, the worm is Italian horror movies from the 70s. Are they... Because now I'm like, this is this is fun. This is good, yeah, I
Starting point is 00:50:12 like this. Well it sounds like we need to move to the rating space. Okay, I like this better than either of the other two. Oh really? I like this better than anything Fulchie made. For sure. Yeah. I'm gonna give this a seven. I was like enthralled by the Who Dunnit. I thought it was beautiful.
Starting point is 00:50:35 And the weirdness of it was like more fleeting than some of the weirdness of other Argento movies that I'm just like, get over it, you know. Oh, I forgot to mention that the soundtrack is done by Enio Morricone. Famous Soundtrack Man. Oh, okay. So that was, that's, there's a lot of like weird jazz stuff going on in this movie. Yeah, at times it felt very dissonant to what was happening on screen, but you know. Sometimes I think you hire Morricone., yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I, I, I, I, yeah, yeah, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, yeah, I, I, I, I, yeah, I, I, I, yeah, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound the sound the sound the sound the sound the sound the sound the sound the sound the sound the sound the sound the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound, the sound, the, the, the, the, the, the, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the, the, yeah, I, the, yeah, I, the, the, the, yeah, the, yeah, yeah, the, yeah, the, yeah, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the sound, the, sonant to what was happening on screen, but you know. Sometimes I think you hire Morricone and he's like, yeah, I got this.
Starting point is 00:51:09 You're fine. I'll give you some music, whatever. Talk to you later. Bye-bye. Do you think it's just like music that he already had or maybe or just what he wanted to do? Like he did. Morricone is famous for doing all like the spaghetti Western soundtracks and stuff. So like the good, the bad, and the ugly with the, wah, mwom, that's him. So he's real into weird sounds and stuff. Gotcha. Are you want to read it? Yes, I love this stupid movie.
Starting point is 00:51:39 I'm going to give it an eight.

No? No, this couldn't, that couldn't have happened. I'm sorry, but it's so fun to watch the silliness of it all. Thanks, Nino. You nailed it, Nino. That's your last pick though, okay? Yeah, well, we talk about you next week, we're not going to let you pick a movie. Let's just start pretending Nino's here with us until we've just lost our minds and drawn
Starting point is 00:52:08 his face onto a volleyball. I like that his daughter is probably like, I'm the one who's the patron. Thanks. But Nino dropped all that sweet wrestling knowledge on us. Yeah, it was nice to, it was nice to hear from him regarding wrestling. Well, anyway. Katie, what are we going to do next week? Next week we've decided to do a movie from the 80s that we've never done before.

They're just waiting for night flight or up all night to come on? Did you have grandparents and other grandparents, like the ones you liked and then never mind. Yes. All right let's get out of here. Let's think about to these nice people. This movie is we're having a rough one. I'm going to bed now okay. I love it. All right. Thanks for listening to another episode of
