Cry Macho

the...

Cry Macho?

yes exactly the movie that's what that's what i was imagining as soon as

you started detailing the plot is this sounds a lot like cry machete why not just right i mean i guess he could be rambo until he's 90 as long as he's hanging on right i think he is almost 80 now how old is

I just think it's... emotional to me to be like in 90 years old or whatever he was.

He wasn't 90 yet, but he still is like with something like The Mule or Cry Macho and like just interested in thinking about ways that we can be different.

like before we die, rather than just being like the grumpy guy who is just doing the same thing over and over again, which is what you see in the real world, like all the time.

But yeah, I don't know.

And this is sort of my last chance to do something to, like, actually be able to, like, die somewhat peacefully.

And, uh, I think this idea of him wanting to change, um, you know, we talked about how it's not novel with this film.

But I do think that it's more poignant the older he gets and something that continues through The Mule and Cry Macho.

And I don't know if that's why it's significant to me and that's what it says to me.

That reportedly ranks as the 10th biggest single weekend theater count loss ever recorded.

Placing the film alongside great movies like The Rhythm Section, Cry Macho, and The Many Saints of Newark.

Come on, guys.

You know those, right? How do I know The Many Saints of Newark? That's a...

I think that's a follow-up to the...

That's the only name.

Cry Macho sounds familiar, too.

The Saints of...

So he

did Cry Macho.

That looks like a western.

I mean, that's like

And he came in and when he was doing his internal audit of projects that had already been passed, that had been completed, successes, failures, and just wanting to get an idea of what were the thoughts here? Did you guys expect this to be a hit? And it was.

What did you think of this project? And in that instance, when Zaslav asked the executives who had, you know, survived the knife before the merger and were there with him, when he asked them about Clint Eastwood's Cry Macho in particular, it was a project that he had read about over the years.

It bounced through a lot of hands.

Arnold was involved at one point and then Clint ended up making it.
