The whole segment, as transcribed
awesome John Gagin the priest who really got the ball rolling murdered by a cellmate 2003 in Shirley Massachusetts at the Massachusetts correct the correctional institution in Shirley so there's that apex mountain the Boston Globe in real life or in movies in real life life yeah yeah but internet's not internet's still not really coming yet they're still in an outsized position of power they just went to Pulitzer for the most important story um and they're not worried about their business yet I would actually say maybe yeah I think it's that's in play for sure mark ruffalo um close but I don't know I still like zodiac better yeah I mean I love zodiac so he's in the captain America movies at this point yeah he's playing Hulk so he's he's kind of a movie star but then he spends most of his time doing those movies I mean he made a mini series this year for HBO but I don't know if Mark's necessarily capitalized on what he had here John Slattery coming off Mad Men lands a couple big movies including this one this ends up being the best movie role he had but I would say Mad Men is still his it's not even close yeah it's Mad Men yeah by the way although his hair close to it because it'd be like hey John you're working around the clock let's let's get that bouffant a little tasseled yeah constantly untucked and unkempt which is crazy because Roger Schilling was uh the opposite of that Liev Schreiber I'm gonna say yes he's got Ray Donovan going at the same time and was awesome in this movie and I think he's also making the Chuck Wepner movie just a lot going on for uh for Liev Schreiber Rachel McAdams no no notebook come on newspaper movies I say no no um pre-scandal movies yes unfortunately are we sure about Liev Schreiber what would you go with I'm just trying to think what else is there I mean he actually has a weird career yeah it's pretty I love him I'm all over everything he does except the fact that there's a million things I haven't seen that weren't that big of a deal so I don't know another guy much like Brian Brian Darcy James hearts in the theater heart isn't heart is on stage really I saw him in uh Glenn Gary Glenn Ross in as Ricky Roma oh wow that wasn't the Pacino one right because Pacino plays yeah I'll tell you what not the movie he was on that he was no no because I saw it with uh Bobby Bobby kind of all yeah and Pacino but Pacino plays Lemon's character from the movie so he doesn't play Ricky uh on stage he plays he plays the machine yeah Liev wasn't wasn't in that version of it but I did see that it was uh it was terrific he's got a lot of fans in the Simmons house because he's in the Damien Omen remake that my son loves I have um an apex this is all for you Damien by the way do you do you have any concern your son loves Damien that much oh we love the Damien movies that I can't believe they're not why are you saying it's not about whether you guys love it just does is it okay that your son loves it that much oh yeah okay I have an apex mountain that scares me what's your apex mountain khakis yeah is there any film where khakis are more prominently worn and all all of their different like from slack if you didn't have six pairs back then what were you even doing going outside of the house I think the way these guys are dressed is perfect it's just such such perfect late 40s early 50s like I'm just gonna tuck this in picking nets there some of the accuracy stuff um and they had to do this for the narrative of the movie but they had to grab wait wait sorry one more apex mountain okay is this apex mountain for saying the title of the movie in the movie has it ever been no face off still apex mountain for that they have a whole scene where they're just like face off five times in this movie I still vote for face off okay picking nets um so they had to compress some stuff because they had so many stories after so like for instance that paquin that priest that happened after the first big spotlight thing came out they compressed that together and they they took some liberties but I think I think ultimately it's a good thing I never totally understood why McLeish the Billy Crudup character was at first protective and didn't seem like he wanted to help them but then all of a sudden he was like I already mailed you the names and then he ended up mailing them the names it was that whole cat mouse thing doesn't really make sense if you watch it a few times I never got it just help him the first time no well I think he is trying to honor the client confidentiality of it but he'd already broken it because he'd already mailed the names yeah but maybe I mean just like whatever has transpired over the years means that like he feels like he can't um Priscilla you okay with Sasha the Rachel McAdams character being just a single workaholic no impossible not back then I mean she's she's one of the hot five hottest girls in the city in 2001 when I remember she has she's is she living with her boyfriend well I just I thought that was her brother I thought she was at like a family function and that was her brother talking to her oh I thought Robbie's like go out to dinner with that guy tonight because you're not gonna you're not gonna see him for a while because we're gonna be working so hard over the next couple of months all right I mean I'll I'm gonna watch it more carefully the next time I watch this movie that wait a minute can we find on the cast can we get IT on this to find out if somebody's cast is her brother or boyfriend that character that character is just not single in Boston no I mean you know my joke she's the hottest fringe in property since like fucking that guy's name is Hansi and it's his it's her spouse oh okay there you go that's good that's no longer nitpick okay well let's nitpick it this way he would not let her be by herself that often be checking in more often could this be remade as a 10 episode Netflix show I actually think they could have done that in a really smart way I'm not against it I it would be a tough hang but it would it would it would probably be pretty good would it be a tougher hang than the vow dudes are just crushing the vow left
