pornographic film

Mm.

But I guess I would say more dignified than that, he was in porn.

[laughs] Okay.

Actual porn?

On his-

Like-

I mean, you gotta make your monies, but damn.

Yeah.

"Any film that places its writing center stage in a single setting with a sparse cast is right up my alley.

Obviously, I've seen 12 Angry Men and Rear Window, but I've also seen lesser-known titles like The Sunset Limited and this year's Blue Film." I haven't seen that one.

"Can you give me some deep cuts? I'll give you plenty of streamers to choose from.

I have Netflix, HBO Max, Prime, Criterion, Canopy, Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+, in case there's a bottle sports documentary I haven't heard of.

Like, remember we caught them watching, um, Deadpool? [laughs]

We did? I thought we caught them watching porn.

[laughs]

[laughs] No, because remember I told you, like, years ago that my husband is always watching Deadpool, like, weirdly.

Well, you and your friends never watched scary movies together?

No, we'd watch porn.

[laughs] At the, at the age of seven?

Nah, nah.

Um, someone would bring Friday on VHS, or they'd bring like...

Oh, I remember, like, when we were in eighth grade, seventh, eighth grade, went to the homie's house for a sleepover, and someone was like, "Yo," took out the VHS and it was Players Club And that was the first time watching titties with the homies.

It wasn't porn, but it was Players Club, and it was like, "Oh, shit"

Dude, that 56K modem porn was rough, man.

And it's a movie where Jack Houston plays a philosophy professor and former piano teacher whose relationship with a younger student many years ago when he was a piano teacher... rears its head back into the present once Jack Houston's father, played by Bill Pullman, dies.

So it's a very difficult movie that asks you in a similar way, but far less effectively than a movie we both liked called Blue Film by Elliot Tuttle from earlier this year.

It asks you to look at pedophilia and homosexuality as being part of a sort of Venn diagram in a way that's very uncomfortable.

And it sounds like a very fascinating movie, but the problem with it is that Paul Schrader has no idea, no understanding about gay culture.

Um, but that's suspiciously close to a 100-man gang bang, so I, I don't know.

If there's a porn that comes out [laughs]-

Yeah, yeah

...

Sure.

Yeah.

[laughs] They're gonna film the porn then, Kyle.

That's when they film the porn.

It's just amazing.

Imagine getting the call, you're knocking out Blue Movies, you think, do you want to be in Firebirds? You're like, yeah, go on then.

What dirt did he have on sub one? I

want to know who got him in.
