How AJ's Father Found Their Home in 1966
"My father gets a flat tire driving out to Long Island to go look for a good fishing spot. And Long Island, especially in that area, is right off the great south bay. Which a couple of bridges later leads you to the beautiful Atlantic Ocean, fire island, Jones beach, beautiful, beautiful spots, especially back in the 60s. So gets a flat tire, starts walking down the block, calls snedeker avenue, which is named after an Indian tribe. Because Long Island is filled with algonquin and Iroquois Indian folklore. And as he's walking, he notices these model homes that look nice. Now, back in Brooklyn, it's me, my mother and my father, my two sisters, rose Lee in The Rain, living in a two bedroom apartment on 80th street, 16, 26, 80 street. Not ideal, but it was a wonderful place to be born in Brooklyn is Brooklyn and I love it to my till I die. But to think that for $24,000, he could have a home with three bedrooms and a backyard big enough for a pool. And maybe live on the water or the canal, it was too much. And my father had come up on this model home when he came back to Brooklyn, got his flat fixed, did some fishing in the area because back then, there were no bulkheads, you could walk down the street and some streets didn't even have asphalt. It was just dirt, and you get right to the great south bay, you could walk into the great south bay. Clam go from muscles, cramps, fish, and my dad did just add and came back and brought a few fish home and some clams, and he told my mom, I got much more for you than what's in this SAP. There's some homes. We need to look at. And they went back a week later or so and he showed my mom and his father, my grandfather, who was still alive back then. And my aunt Mary, his sister, where we could live, and you can imagine these people who rarely left bensonhurst Brooklyn. What this new idyllic community looked like. And it was beautiful.

"Yeah. Oh, I mean, think about 1966 and then go back and watch the man who shot liberty valance or go back and watch like some of those all went real bravo, John Wayne movies. And think about how old and outdated those must have seemed to buy 66. Yeah. And they already were like past their time. I mean, can you imagine watching this movie on LSD? Yeah. No, thank you. Yeah, exactly. What would you give it? It's got a little more than ten. I would give it probably a 7. There's some really awkward parts just in the way it's filmed. There's some parts that are kind of clunky and like you said, it's a very long movie. And when a long movie feels long, it's not a great sign. Yeah. But it's very much three hours long. It feels three hours long. And it's just because there are those long shots, and there's not a lot of content to keep you like, okay, get to the next scene. I want to see what's going to happen with this. It's not a complex story. Very spare. Very spare. But it's good. Yeah. I think in the wine world, you would say the word austere. Austere, very lean meat. It's lean meat on a big plate. Yeah, I'd say that's accurate. But at the same time, it's like, from my perspective, 'cause I love this movie. For me, it's a ten. And I would say, and again, I could totally see that side of it too, though. 100% of being frustrated with it. It's also hard to watch this movie with fresh eyes, because it is so iconic. It's like, I know what's going to happen. The score is obviously amazing. Ubiquitous. It's also been, yeah, it's permeated the zeitgeist. The iconic sound of a western. Like a showdown. Gunfight. Yeah. But also, it's like, it's kind of like when we were watching Godzilla vs..

"Not the two goes bad to go is an opportunist and he's somebody who will stab you in the back at the drop of a hat. But he's a bandit in the killer. Yeah, he's definitely not a good person in this movie portrays his character very thoroughly. And so this was kind of that beginning. I mean, this movie, Bonnie Clyde, the Warren Beatty. These are movies where you started to see the breakdown of the Hollywood system. Into what it is now, where you can kind of blank check. You can show what you want. In terms of violence in terms of morals and ethics, and it was around this time that the first nude scenes started to come in around the first nudity. I believe it was a movie called the palm broker, had the first sex scene around this time. So you started to see those classic like, I think the only thing we got out of this was to go taking a bath. Not the most welcome nudity. Not pleasant. If you want to see Eli Wallach naked, this is your movie. You get it. A quick rundown of the plot. And it's not much. Basically, Clint Eastwood, who's the man with no name. Blondie. And Lee van Cleef, who plays the bad, and awful psychopath killer. Angel eyes, Eli Wallach is Tuco. Also another band at the killer. Are all on the hunt for the same confederate chest of gold treasure. So supposedly hundreds of thousands of dollars in confederate gold. $200,000 of confederate gold. Yeah. And so they are in, I believe, is New Mexico. New Mexico and Texas. Yes. Which is interesting because it's like, it's great that they show something Civil War buff, huge Civil War fan. Are you? Yeah. That's a different podcast. That's a whole different podcast. I would love to do that sometime. But yeah. If this depicts the New Mexico, western Texas is like a major scene of combat, which was not at the time. There's definitely battles fought there for sure. Yeah, I thought that the Texas Civil War was mostly fought along a coast, kind of around Houston Galveston. It was over my hometown. Yeah. For basically the rights to the water, you know? Argentina was based on when news reached Galveston, which that was the last place to hear news that slaves were emancipated. Yeah. 19th of June. Yeah. Yep. So they depict lots of troops, lots of movements, lots of generals, lots of battles going on, which is not the case for West Texas, New Mexico. No. There were some small battles for sure. Even where we are in Oklahoma, there are battles. On our family has a farm. And to supposedly, there was a which we weren't a state at the time. No. We were Indian territory. There was a skirmish out there. And I was always finding I found like one point out there in the land like a coffee pot, an old wheelbarrow stuff buried out there. Really? Yeah. All along there where they're supposed to be skirmished at plus arrowheads everywhere. There's all kinds of stuff laying around out there. Because that farmland land has never been settled by humans. So it's never been houses there in development. So it's like, I'm fine this stuff. It's got to wonder if that's from then. But the Civil War was everywhere in the country. It was fought all over the country. In small amounts, the main battles, like you said, were like around the Mississippi and Virginia. That was a lot of state militias. Getting into skirmishes. It actually went all the way to northern France. There were battles in the Civil War fought around Cherbourg. Which wineries were involved..

"I'm thinking of the scene where Eli Wallach is getting beat up in the sergeant's cabin and it zooms in on the guy and he's just so sweaty. Dripping sweat and he's just like trying to like squeeze the eyes out of Eli Wallach. Yeah. Crazy. And that's like, yeah, this would be a good companion to do those movies back to back, and you can see how much this movie changed westerns. And interesting. To do that more European aesthetic. The lines have been good and bad and ugly or blurred. They're murky. And to where you don't have those heroes anymore, like you used to. It reflects not only that European mindset, but also the mindset of the 60s. You know, where it's like you had like the biggest box office star in the late 60s with Steve McQueen. And he excelled at playing people like Clint Eastwood, who were like kind of ambiguous. You didn't know where they stood in terms of good and evil sometimes. So it definitely reflects the times. It definitely changed the way that we looked at this as genre. Maybe a little more accurate to the period, you know? It definitely felt like this movie I was trying to portray the Civil War era a little bit more accurately kind of display a lot of the violence and war. Yeah..

"When I bought this long three hours. Yes. When I bought this as a kid, it was the two VHS version of it. Oh yeah. Yeah. It is the opposite of the movie that we reviewed last week, zodiac, which was around two hours and 40 minutes. Two 38, I think. Loaded with plot, loaded with characters. It's a very dense two hours. Lots of information. Almost a lightweight three hours. Yes. It is deliberately very leonie stylist, a very much spread stuff out. That seems to draw out like the first probably ten minutes this movie. There's a very little dialog. Sometimes Leone style kind of feels like that scene in Monty Python. But the guy's running over and over and over. Two guards are just sort of like eating an apple. And he just keeps running, keeps running. And there's a Tiffany drums in the background, like rolling. Yeah. And then all of a sudden, one of them gets run through the sword. Yeah. This movie has a lot of guys off in the distance walking through smoke. Guys off in the distance, riding a horse. Clint Eastwood walking through the desert. Literally watching the horse right away the entire time. Just to see what was going to happen. Or Eli Wallach running in circles in a cemetery for, oh my God. I was watching this movie and Jonah came down and she was just like, what is this cinematography? It's just like a blurry camera just spitting. And I was like, yeah. This is good bend the eye one. And ironically, this is one of them in terms of its cinematography. It's looking fuel. This is one of the most influential westerns. Iconic. Yeah. I think the most iconic scene there's a ton in this movie is the last the final showdown on the cemetery with the eyes darting back and forth between the people. Zoom in on the gun and the zoom in on the eyes and zoom in on the other eyes. Yeah. You could argue this is the definitive Clint Eastwood movie. This is up there..

"Oh no. But so yeah, I thought about doing like a Italian or Spanish wine. Thought that might be a little bit too on the nose. For doing. I mean, there are some great Italian wines. We featured a kava last month? Yes. And I think we did it a Prosecco in there too, possibly. But also it's like, I couldn't really think of an Italian wine that's been snubbed that doesn't get its due. I mean, maybe Pinot Grigio. I mean, and all but also Spanish ones. Part of the beauty of Spanish ones is they fly under the radar. There's nothing that really I'll qualify as a snub. Spanish wines are sort of doing their own thing well, France going to steals all the glory. Yeah. The thing about Merlot shard and zen is that they are big, famous, iconic wines that are kind of dismissed, they're kind of taken for granted. And people may not necessarily see what they're great for. I don't feel like that's the case for Italian ones or Spanish ones, necessarily. No. Is there a varietal that you think is overrated? That most people really gravitate toward, but they should. Overrated. I mean, I'm thinking it's like, I have never been a huge Cabernet guy. Again, it's like the classic thing where it's like it's a Cabernet Sauvignon. Yeah, okay. It's iconic for a reason. It's huge. But I don't love it. I think that there's a lot of cabernets that are one dimensional. And they're dry oaky smoky, again, they don't have that well rounded. It has a good appeal for people that don't get really into wine. Yeah. And I think that's why I cabs are really what I've gravitated toward. Early on. And that's not to say that there's cabs that I don't love. Yeah. But I've definitely branched out past that. Yeah. But it's like, I mean, for example, like thinking about a steak wine. It's like Cabernet is the classic steak one. But I also think about like, I love a good Merlot. Yeah. I love a Cabernet franc. You think about those like French ones. I mean, the French Cabernet frogs have the Sheen ons. Or the Bordeaux, which are going to be camera cap front blends. Or even like a Malbec, straight Malbec would be a good steak on them. So it's like I just think there's other options out there. So I just naturally don't gravitate towards Cabernet. You know, like some people do it. That may be, I know that there's a lot of wine, so it's a lot of really not people who love Cabernet. It's just not my, not my thing, I guess..

"And welcome back to a cinema vino. Sean Jordan's here with me again. And we're going to talk about this is part four. And the last installment of our Oscar snubs. Again, to qualify a movie has to literally be nominated for zero Oscars. And be a really good movie. And this one, like I said in the last part, this one has the record as being the highest rated movie on IMDb to not have a single nomination. Yeah, it's crazy. One of the most influential movies ever made, the good, the bad and the ugly. All right, one of the most iconic. Yeah. Watching this movie feels like you're watching a movie of cliches because of this movie. It started them. Yeah. This was the one that kicked off. I mean, I think fistful of dollars for a few dollars more the early the rough drafts of the movie this would become. Not that those movies weren't great also, but this is like the spaghetti western masterpiece. This is like the Citizen Kane. Between this and dirty Harry, I think some of the most iconic movie bits from the 60s era. Yes. Oh, he was this really, this movie launched him as a superstar. And throughout the late 60s and early 70s. History Harry is the 70s. Yeah. It's like he became like one of the most bankable box office stars. In the world. Because he's really good at squinting at stuff. Squinting and saying very few words. There's no dialog in this movie for the first ten minutes. I love Tom Hanks like talking about Clint's directorial style where it's like what they're filming a scene and literally he does not say action or cut or any of that stuff. It's like literally he'll lean close to his actor, whatever, like while they're about to start shooting. He's like, okay, go ahead now. And doesn't he only do one take? I mean, very few. He's notorious for being under budget and the head of schedule. And like the actors are like, oh no, I messed up. Can I do that again? He's just like, nope, we're rolling with it. But yeah, he's like, okay, you go ahead now. And then it's like when he's done, it's like he won't say cut. That's enough of that. And it's like, I don't know how any actor could turn. I'd be like, no, we need to do that again. We're looking down Clint Eastwood. Okay, well, that's enough of that. Yeah. No, we're done here. We don't need a second take. It's like, okay, well then we don't. All right. Moving on, dirty Harry. He's going to yell at some chairs later. Yes, he does. He tends to. Which I have never done. That might be therapeutic. You never know, that might be a good way to blow off a little steam. I don't think it's worked well for me. No, it's a bad look. So we're going to continue also our series looking at wines that varietals grapes that haven't gotten a good rap either..

The Argument for God Is an Open-and-Shut Case
"Oftentimes, something is open and shut. But if everyone doesn't know that it's open and shut, that it's been decided, it almost doesn't matter, right? In other words, you know, and I know that the case for there is no longer any case. Let's be honest, okay? In 18 59, you can make a good case. Sure. You can make a case in 1966. You can make a case. And that's why Time Magazine comes out with is God dead. But in this day and age, given what we know from science only from science, you can no longer really make a case. But it doesn't prevent people from blowing smoke from pretending that they can make a case. Or pretending that if you're even talking about it, you're not being rational. In other words, they've conflated rationality with being somehow hostile to faith. With some kind of scientistic way of thinking, I don't know if you talk about that in the book. Yeah, that's the final section in the book is how do we our faith and science at opposite ends of the spectrum or are they too books that God has produced that don't contradict each other? The book of science is just as true as the book of faith, and they compliment each other quite well. And I look at it, not simply from a scientific perspective, but I look at it from a scriptural perspective as well. And that's the final third of the book. It's important because Christians need to understand the Bible does say certain things. But the Bible doesn't say everything. The Bible is God's communication to us about critical things he wanted us to say and it's in the manner in which he chose to say it. But you take Moses on Mount Sinai in Moses gets a dispensation from God, God wasn't as concerned about fixing Moses science as he was fixing Moses theology.

Right should we push the best ones to the forefront because if the list is complete in five years time when we finish show. Yeah we've we've exceeded also if it means that we've got is maybe one. I'm just worried that. I should let this one pass without a not right like are we looking at it. More as a cultural artifact. That's important is that maybe also the question. Well if you look at like. We've spoken about his influences for ambitious deep space. Nine episodes sasha nine or the palace films. I think the comedy is kind of there is nobody was. He's not laugh out loud film and the rope from two pacing I think it's a funny film. I think it's a great are march to bond. And so i know that my vote is pointless now is to nose bio well.

When he rescues one of his companions of moves to the next room they just push a curtain aside and walk through into the next room and she said that current does a really good job at stamping. I don't know that i could question too much. you know. Film that has a lighter. Eighty five different weapons applications. I loved. I will say i did like that. Because when they when he's getting the equipment lee-jay cup shows in clearly the it's actually a case from from from russia with love and also the wealth. Urpi can't walter p p k and he he's and jacobs like oh we've modified this sixty five different things and he just holds up the lighter and says this eighty five eighty six if you want to light his cigarette And the fact that he just had that gadget it. That did everything. He didn't have light the armory of gadgets. He just had the one thing and used it throughout and includes elias. So yeah i. I love that whole stick on the on the on the gadget aspect of the super spy genre not to mention his shirt with a stethoscope bill into it. Yeah that's that's a great satisfied tools rather the the watch did some things as well but it felt like the watch often worked in tandem with the later do everything except tell the time there was actually no our hands on it. Yeah i like the little hand that comes out to kick start his pulse against yet made me laugh every time. It's always a sign with talking about these films that we enjoyed it because we thought picking tanya things Bad to say about the film overall. So i mean i guess we could just go go for the characters really quickly about what we will ya so we ll about james currie burn i. I was blown away by his performance. I was expecting another austin powers. I think that's pulled me away the first time round. I'm glad he wasn't austin powers. I very much believed him. in a forklift running down a goon in another cfl very austin powers but yeah like i think a movie like this. What really helps is there's no mean spiritedness to flint. I think that's leave. That to the bond movies were bond has kind of that killer. Look i like that. He kind of is that. Go with the vibe kind of guy and you know we were talking about him. Not wanting to impose this utopian everyone else. And i think that's his thing he's like do your own thing man and i think james coburn commits to that and you buy it like you don't buy that. This is an actor putting on an act. You buy derek flint as a character. Yeah i think your point about him. Austin powers was him not breaking. The fourth wall was You know flint play. It was played straight within the reality of that world and the will building around. it wasn't look were making. A movie nudge nudge. Wink green in the audience. Or whatever i think. It was play because they played extract within that world. It made it a lot more.

Yeah it feels like. It's the ultimate temptation for derek. Yeah this is exactly what he wants luxurious living and everything. He's fingertips but he also doesn't want to be your slave the mind where he doesn't seem like an impulsive character at all. He seems to want things on his own wavelength. But he's not someone who's to create that for the rest of the world. He only kind of cares about his own little world. But i also took it for the people that he didn't want them to be learning through a brain more stay. It was like yeah. You can do this but as long as you won't take no because it's like forced on you. Will you be made to serve as 'cause even though he focused on freeing just initially his full companions and gala than lights are on. I think he destroyed all the machines that let everybody else. Get freedom of mind. The only thing. I thought the end was despite all that thing about freedom and letting people free they blew up the island and you never saw anybody else. Escape died horribly screaming so blissfully screaming or blissfully screaming but yeah to yeah no kidding you know when you you have a set number of barrels to sail to freedom like the hobbit. I don't know. I leads us onto the escape at the end. That was one of the funny things. I know it down just choosing to throw people off of a wall to full barrels. it does get Oh it does feel like sometime around this era. There was that guy that went down the niagara falls in a barrel. I'm wondering if that was in the air. At that point i remember that being a thing at some point. I maybe it did make me think of the hobbit though genuinely like that's all i made a note that just said the hobbit scene because that was something. I very much remembered the book. The hobbit that was carried into the three part epic. That was the hobbit trilogy want season. Talking about galaxy island did either v notice the the potential goof. They made with the disco vroom. No no okay so to set the scene for everyone who. Maybe haven't watched the film though. I would recommend you what Before we really tap Now said it's always different realms inside the galaxy room. There's like the making out watching a movie room as a room. We don't tonight away as as a gladiator Greek romans over room that when looked like one of the scenarios from the star trek episode cage. Yeah yet did as the discovery is basically filled with people.

"Take that. I came up with the spy. Who loved us Yeah that's actually. I like that one. That's good one. I'm not proud of and you can cut this out if you want octopuses. I'm eternally sorry. Let's let's go with the spy. Who loved us. Ed moving on but the pacing. I is it both times. you have really mention. How do you feel this. This film was pace. No i think you're right. It did drag a bit in the middle. I didn't think it was. I think it was a little bit of that. Brightest of i know thing of our. I know how i want to stop this. I know how to finish it from a to z and it did drag a bit in the middle some parts. I thought were quite funny. But the whole seed in rome with him getting locked in the safe and stuff that felt a bit superfluous to really drive the plot with much and so that in italy. Yeah i i'm with you there. I could probably zone at that point as well up until him sort of. I think all that was was to get him on the submarine so he could get to the basin. It didn't really sort of fit beyond and need to move the character from physical point. Eight physical point bay. It didn't really advance the plot. Might so yeah. I got a little bit did drag abbott and pursue very different signs at the beginning. You as you said you've got sort of the more of the detectives thing up front of picking the spa in getting the usual thing getting equipment. That was fun. Doing detective work get into maasai figuring out the way by staff and is somebody who loves bouillabaisse. Back me on that. I need to do that to my favorite french restaurant. One sip of the way base and then pay well but that i like that whole detectives vibe at the beginning and then at the end of his the got the whole hidden island blood about guys base action sequence in the middle i would agree does does tend to drag. It feels like a lot of the energy in that first. Third comes from the introduction of this world and to me. That's where i was really on board was seeing flint's apartment and the german shepherd that escorts people to come meet him obviously meeting the four women he lives with it. Being introduced to zoe in seeing flint brought into that bizarre scenarios like the harpist being replaced in an assassination attempt like all that sort of introductory stop. There's a lot of fun there. So you're kind of like leaning forward really sucked in by what's going on. I especially loved the guy who is killed and they bring him back to life by plugging lee j cobb's hand into a ceiling. Light holding hands of flight and then touching the guy's heart moments like that or insane and they totally had be laughing but when it gets to that middle section. It's kind of like the movie going. Oh wait we have to have a spy plot. And that's where it feels a little more like okay. We need to kind of put in the shoe leather here. We've gotta get from. Paul allen said from point a to point b. and i like the stuff with them trapping him in a safe. That's fun. I like when they turned that into like a cafe in the street all really funny stuff but it just feels like the pace really kind of drops down and the inspiration that is really firing on all cylinders in the first third kind of sags. Well i think that also leads me onto one of my other criticism to the film and that is the bad guys. Yeah you've got this evil trio of scientists so that you question if they're evil or not i suppose but they want to..

Volcano thing is well because this is a year before you only live twice so was the first. First guy to have a volcano. That was really insane as well as the villain hans gruber a very notable he named hans gruber but like that guy has a real blow fell. Look and we hadn't seen the ball blow field yet in the bond series either. No no did. Maybe wonder if they The diehard script. Reid has got the name from the flint movie. Will you also wonder too when you get into the bond franchise a little bit later down. The road with diamonds are forever. That one feels almost like it's trying to be a flint movie or like the spoofs of the era more so than what the original idea was yeah. I've never quite sure that he was trying to be. But that's yeah that's that's actually a good observation. I haven't thought in those terms. Britain does have more of that vibe to it definitely. Yeah i was curious like scott. What did you think of the world of this movie World where we have zoe. The i don't know what to call them. What global. I actually have the what the acronym means. It's zonal organization world intelligence espionage. That is one hell of an acronym it sounds like nonsense and government with come up with be fair zonal. It was a sixties man. Clearly they were ruled on something. No kidding no kidding but what did you think of the world of this movie. I think it was a well. Developed for someone would just dropped into. It is interesting that they rely on this billion dollar brain style. Computer to find agent This zoe a threatened by the bad guys Destroyed the planet unless they do what they say and so they have to find an agent and they can't go with. Triple eight nudge nudge. Wink wink a very subtle joke. Very films follow flint and yacht. You buy the world you you get it feels lifting it shows like it's not too crazy i i buy it really yeah. I thought it was nicely grounded in that as much as you can ground absurd material like this but it didn't feel like they were just kind of making it up as they went or just felt really thrown together. It felt like they had a little bit of Some thought behind this insane world. They live in.

"It is. You know we've talked about a few of these other six movies so much on the podcast but off like i referred to the sixty seven casino royale and that one is. I've always felt something of a mess whereas like this one feels very focused in what it wants to do. And i really did. Enjoy a lot of the comedic setup to this movie. There's a lot of weird goofiness. And i love the weirdness and that is a word. I'm sure we'll be using many times over. The course of this review is that this movie goes to really strange places. And i found a lot of that really fun to watch like sometimes sixty surrealism can turn me off in a movie. If it kind of goes too far. But i felt like here it was the right amount it had that sort of visual splendor that you see on the star trek original series like there's a lot of moments in this that reminded me of the original star trek just visually. And you know. I could talk a little bit about the pace. I think the pace gets a little slow especially in the middle sections. But i did have fun with it but scott. I'm the most curious. What did you think. I had two very different experiences of this film. My i watch and my second watch. Yeah i think my expectations were in the complete wrong place on my watch. Because i i heard bits and bobs from you about being a completely insane. Comedy spoof bond film. I'd seen trailers and kind of played up the same thing. I know it influenced the austin powers. And so i i was going to have a lawful minute ya. I didn't love rarely in this film a couple of like. Yeah because that's how british people law fairly. Of course of course and and that was it. And i thought well that was quite appointing as you mentioned. The pace was a bit off I'd like things like the set design is really great. It did have that nineteen sixty six star trek. Batman was the same year as well. I think but i enjoyed that. I just i didn't really get anything out of it..

"If you read into his backstory he began as a vaudevillian it became an orchestra leader and he was also a writer as well. Songwriter and his most notable credit was he wrote the one thousand nine hundred forty one marx brothers movie. The big store which i've seen. It is actually pretty funny. He was mostly known for doing a lot of tv so he came up with the concept of what this movie is. This is right. After james bond has blown up you know Goldfinger thunderball are both phenomenons. They're changing the landscape of spy movies. So it makes a lot of sense that someone would wanna riff about that at this point in time and he writes the screenplay for this movie with a guy named ben star who mostly just wrote. Tv he'd written a lot of episodes of my favorite martian petticoat junction. Mr ed shows like that and this the script and idea was very much. Championed by producer saul david now saul. David was a guy who worked at bantam books as a chief editor for a time and moved into film producing in nineteen sixty five. We'd had a big hit with the frank sinatra film von ryan's express and was ready to continue on. This seemed like a really good idea for him. Now it was his idea to hire james coburn. And james coburn says i. Credit producer saul david for the flint films. He was responsible for the whole thing. He also casting me in the role so we can enter the director now but very much it seems like producer saul. David was the visionary behind what this will be ultimately came to be the director. Though was daniel man who had done an academy award nominated best picture candidate in nineteen fifty-five called the rose tattoo he'd also done some other prestige stuff like butterfield. Eight which one elizabeth taylor and oscar. He'd also done a couple of dean. Martin comedies nineteen sixty. Two's who's got the action in nineteen sixty. Three's sleeping in my bed. So he was kind of a weird director in that he would go from like very like You know Blake prestige type films to really goofy kind of sex comedies of the era. So he's an interesting choice for this movie. And i think it'll be interesting to talk about his contributions to this movie which definitely juggles the to a couple of other things. I'll just note. Raquel welsh tested for the role of gila but was not chosen. She wound up. Instead in the producers other follow up film from the same year fantastic voyage where she became an icon. So i'm not really sure why they passed over raquel welch for this movie but history turned out okay. So that's of the behind the scenes. There's not a lot of behind the scenes details written about our men flint. That i could find. I was digging through like old like newspaper. Clippings even for those quotes from coburn. I'm curious allen. If you knew anything that i didn't cover their no you've pretty much found whatever i have it. Considering the influence of it does have actually very little written about and a very few contemporary sources as well so interesting. You mentioned the tv thing. I was going back and looking at the cast..

Asper a long time and i've watched it Occasionally throughout on. I really enjoy it and i was actually the middle of last year when i was doing research. For an article on various james bond spoof movies so it was interesting to watch it from through that lens and then obviously i. I watched it the other night. Try not to watch it from the james spicy but just actually sit back and enjoy it for movie and so right so long history with this movie and always enjoyed it which has a special opinion next question quite well.

Without any support from the label. They worked the phones trying to get radio stations to play it. It was so hard it was so hard, Helen Reddy and that 2014 interview. You know, so many radio stations would say, Well, we're we're already playing a female record. It took nearly a year for I'm women to work its way up the charts and become a number one hit. When ready, then won a Grammy for best female performance. She thanked her manager husband, I would like to thank Jeff wrong because he makes my success possible.
