Steve Jobs

What?

Steve Jobs died of-

Oh

... pancreatic-

Thank you.

[laughs]

I love Steve Jobs.

Really?

Mm.

And then she also was nominated Best Supporting Actress for Steve Jobs.

Steve Jobs.

[laughs]

I don't remember that.

Steve Jobs?

Steve Jobs.

[laughs]

... um, you were on the Sony lot, and you were in Francine Maisler's casting office for, it was a feature film.

I believe it was the Steve Jobs movie, and you were auditioning to play the daughter of Steve Jobs.

I think I do remember this a little bit.

Yeah.

Both of these are, are based on true stories.

Oh, oh, Steve Jobs.

Steve Jobs is number 10.

That's the 2015 movie, 7.2.

Yep.

And what's the other one? Did we s- We saw the Steve Jobs movie together, right?

Yeah, I watched it.

I think I watched it at home at some point.

so close together that I guess the Bowen Temple was the only thing in my head just

then 28 years later is good prior to that though yeah you're right like TV special TV miniseries yesterday 2019 Trainspotting 2 Steve Jobs yeah he's he's not really nailing it

I so fondly think back to Shallow Grave, 28 Days Later, Sunshine, Slumdog Millionaire.

There was a hell of a time to be Danny Boyle and to be a Danny Boyle fan, but We're not in that time.

But I would say

that in terms of how it plays around with like real life, it's very similar to Danny Boyle's Jobs, where it kind of just creates its own version of events so liberally.

that you kind of...

Even audiences who don't know that much about Steve Jobs, or in this case, that much about Chris Hansen, will probably understand, you would think, that what they're seeing is absolutely a huge, huge departure

from real life.

Sure.

I think he'd be a worthy 10, so that's where I have him.

And, and by some measure he was like close to getting Supporting Actor nomination for Steve Jobs.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, sure.

Even if his Oscar-winning performance from King Richard wasn't his best, he is capable of so much more, and I hope he can get back to that at some point.

What I also loved was that while the boxing scenes are intense and brutal, they're not flashy, and Michael Mann chooses not to make a film... about boxing in the traditional sense or just a boxing movie to get a lot of action in the sequences are not stylized or flashy thus making them that much more impactful when they do come on especially as each round passes his direction and pacing gives this feeling of exhaustion to the fighters and to the audience so if you've never seen Ali and you love Will Smith you really need to cross this one off your watch list it is terrific The second recommendation is 2015's Steve Jobs, directed by Danny Boyle with a script from Aaron Sorkin.

It stars Michael Fassbender as Steve Jobs.

Taking place backstage just before three separate product launches over the course of about 14 years.

This has slowly become one of my favorite comfort movies, and for reasons unknown, I cannot tell you why.

But if you've seen any of Aaron Sorkin's written films, you know the script is already dynamite.

The dialogue obviously is just sharp, witty, and explosive.

While this takes place at three separate important product launches in the life of Steve Jobs, it isn't a traditional biopic because it takes place during those events and only has threads woven throughout his upbringing or his past.

Nightmare.

So in one email, Amy Pascal wrote about a Steve Jobs movie that Sorkin was writing and a couple of his other films that were in development.

One called Flash Boys and another one that Sorkin was championing to like he wanted to write and direct was going to be his directorial debut.

And it's called Molly's Game.

Why? Well, had he been abusive to a co-star? No.

Had he secretly hurt one of his age-inappropriate girlfriends? Also no.

It was because he dared to drop out of the Aaron Sorkin film Steve Jobs.

I guess Leo was like slated to play Jobs.
