Frances Fisher

I mean, we can talk about why.

Um, just the Oscar campaigners, like Frances Fisher, where are you?

Mm-hmm.

Get on it.

I was gonna say, don't get excited, it's not Frances Fisher-

[laughs]

...

Yeah.

He's just like, he came home and he told Francis Fisher, he's just like, I saw a blue job.

Now give me a blue job because I'm so excited.

Yeah.

And you know that this feels like the...

Oh, God, what was her na- the, um, uh, what was the actress in, in 2022 that Frances Fisher pushed?

No, this is-

Oh, Andrea Riseborough?

Can you give us the elevator pitch for Out of the Woods?

Yeah, Out of the Woods is a feature film about a woman played by Frances Fisher who is slowly losing her memory.

She reunites with a longtime friend who she hasn't seen in decades and that reawakens a hidden, long buried part of herself.

And she's forced to choose between spending the precious time she has left with this woman she's always loved or remained faithful to her husband.

I

Ah, yes.

Ah, yes, Titanic.

Who exactly drugged the food on the set of James Cameron's Titanic, leading to 75 members of the crew having to go to a tiny Canadian hospital? Let's get into the story.

1997's Titanic, written and directed by James Cameron, produced by Cameron and Jon Landau, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet, Billy Zane, Kathy Bates, Frances Fisher, Bernard Hill, Jonathan Hyde, David Warner, Bill Paxton, Gloria Stuart.

A very, very long cast list for a very, very long film.

And so the story of the movie, well, uh, James Cameron had always been fascinated by the Titanic story to a degree that he was a teenager when he found the book, A Night to Remember, for instance, which is the novel... well, basically the nonfiction book about the final night of the Titanic on its fateful voyage.

Is it, you know, trans-centered stories? Is it stories in which they want to see themselves on screen based on what their identity is? You know, not just gender identity and sexual orientation, but also looking at, um, you know, racially and age.

You know, there's a beautiful story called "Out of the Woods" that, uh, stars Frances Fisher, who many people-

Mm

... will recognize her name, and she stars as a woman who is married to a guy.

And Disney changes.

Our original wife was Clint Eastwood's girlfriend, Frances Fisher.

I think I got it.

Frances Fisher, yeah.

And, of course, by the end of the year, he was like the head monologue writer and invaluable.

And within two or three or five, I don't know how many years, he's producing the jaywalks and the desk pieces and, you know, supporting his family.

He had kids and a wife and a, you know,

it was like.
