The whole segment, as transcribed
The videotape of Melanie Griffith's bedroom jewelry masturbation test audition was destroyed at her request because DePalma had kept it. Classic. Hey, can you get rid of that now? Or so she thinks. Yeah. When we discover in the CR archives. Here it is. Apex Mountain. Craig Wasson. Death of fucking Lutalut. Oh my God. Yeah. This is like first line of his obituary. Yeah. With all due respect. His grandkids are like, Grandpa, you were in Body Double with Brian DePalma? Yeah. He's 70 years old. Is he still acting? I like camera. Apparently he's a big audio book narrator. Yeah. Oh. Yeah. Oh, that's cool. Maybe we'll have to work with him. Good pivot. Melanie Griffith's Apex Mountain. I'm going to say Working Girl. I agree. DePalma, no. That's probably Scarface. It's in the blowout to Scarface. It's Untouchables, right? Oh, Untouchables. I feel like Scarface was a bigger movie. Was it? I thought so. Fuck the fucking DS Brothers. Carrie 2 is obviously huge. Fuck the fucking DS Brothers? Is that what you said? I think it's got to be Scarface because it gets him the three-picture deal that lets him make Body Double. That's good. When we do Scarface, that's when the feed is over. Used to be Boogie Nights. Good. What do you mean? No, I'm just saying. I used to say it was Boogie Nights. Now it's Scarface. Yeah. Because we're going to Method Pod. Scarface will be, that'll be seven hours. Giant mountain of cocaine right here on the table. Yeah. It's just huge cocaine right there. But we'll be like Brian DePalma. We'll be like, I'm not on cocaine. Yeah. I'm just interested in these worlds. Only one person masturbated for me. Stop putting the rumor out that I'm podcasting while high on cocaine. 80s porn and movies, definitely. Greg Henry? What is it for him? I think it's this. I think it's this. This is the most critical role he's had in a movie. Frankie Goes to Hollywood, definitely. I mean, this is their songs coming out. I think they're pretty big. But this movie, they're on SNL, like the start of the next season. The album's out. It's somewhere in 84. Okay. This is it. Their song, The Power of Love, just played a big part in that movie, All of Us Strangers, last year. And it was the first time I'd heard a Frankie Goes to Hollywood song that wasn't relaxed in like 20 years. I remember that. Just putting that out there. Have you seen All of Us Strangers? Who's in that one? Paul Meskel. Paul Meskel. Andrew Scott. I have a really good bit about that movie that I'll share with you off mic. Save it for the Scarface pod? Yeah. I almost did for my hottest take that Frankie Goes to Hollywood and Queen were a lot closer than people want to admit. In terms of the quality there were. Or popularity? In terms of the ceiling of how good they were. I was workshopping and I couldn't quite get there. Is that complimentary to Frankie Goes to Hollywood or derogatory about Queen? It's the latter. Well, just that I think Relax is as good as any Queen song. I'm not a huge fan of either, but I think that there are some Queens. I think Queen is incredible, so I don't know what you're talking about. Well, that's why I didn't do it. Yeah. That's why I workshopped it and decided not to go with it. Yeah. There's some, I mean, now cocaine is something that they have in common, I think. I think there was a lot of cocaine involved there. I was listening to like a late period Queen album the other day, and you could hear
