144: Lily Was Here
Movie Meltdown - Episode 144
Your favorite caffeinated movie geeks are back!! Hopped up on a new blend, we break out our usual rundown of geek activities and ridiculous comments. And if that wasn’t enough, we follow that up with our exclusive interview with comedy legend - Lily Tomlin! It was amazing to get a chance to talk with her, as we discuss - the early days, her film career, overcoming adversity in show business, and we might even touch on a little “meltdown” she was involved in herself a few years ago.
And at some point surrounding our discussion on the utter despair of Peanuts, we also mention… Hesher, why Wilson could never show his face, throwing Jujubes at people, Peggy Feury, The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, Danny McBride, Paul Thomas Anderson, NCIS, one of the sexist things I’ve ever seen in film, Harold and Maude, Robert Shaw, Magnolia, Mayans walking through the woods for a long time, a sleazy kind of sexy scoundrel, Battle Royale, Eastbound and Down, Simon Pegg, Sitting Pretty, Charles Nelson Reilly, Catfish, a tube sock full of francs, The Wild Hunt, Waitress temping, Nietzsche and The Family Circus?, The Celluloid Closet, how is Bridesmaids like Les Mis??, David Schwimmer, is Bryan moving in on Marlena’s Hollywood crush, movies in the 70’s, Hard Eight, The Big Nothing, a long-haired, dorky little Sociopath, Dirty New York, There Will Be Blood, 3eanuts.com, a physical embodiment of teen angst, and as usual… Hector Elizondo.
“Shit was about to get real in here.”
