78: Sweet and Lowdown with Whitney Friedlander

PHILLIP ISCOVE (co-host, “Podcast Like it’s 1999): It was really just supposed to be another episode, not unlike the 75 or so we had previously done.  KENNY NEIBART (co-host, “Podcast Like it’s 1999”): But something was different that day. Something in the air.  ERNIE HURTADO (producer, “Podcast Like It’s 1999”): That was the just the airplanes.  NEIBART: Aside from the airplanes. Something else. A certain je ne se quois.  WHITNEY FRIEDLANDER (entertainment journalist, guest “Podcast Like it’s 1999”): I think what Kenny is referring to is squeezing a non-problematic podcast from this very problematic movie. ISCOVE: Yes! We somehow avoided being problematic while talking about Woody Allen.  NEIBART: I don’t know if I’d say we were completely without controversy. What about the part where you defended Woody’s behavior? ISCOVE: I never defended Woody’s behavior!  FRIEDLANDER: I don’t think any of us defended him.  NEIBART (smirking): Phil did.  ISCOVE (steam rising): I did no such thing!  NEIBART: Ernie? HURTADO: I don’t know. He may have when one of those 15 planes flew over.  NEIBART: Yup.  ISCOVE: I never defended him! Stop putting that out there!  NEIBART: I guess our listeners will have to listen to the entire episode to find out. FRIEDLANDER: This got real weird, real fast. (Pause) ISCOVE: I didn’t defend him.

Stacy shares how the three hour directors cut almost ruined the entire movie for her. Phil leads a round table discussion on how movie theaters will evolve in a post pandemic world, and what we all consider to be the perfect movie theater experience. And, of course, we discuss how this gentle foreign film ended up as a highly regarded, mainstream classic here in America, the legendary execution of the ending, and the ways in which the central message of theaters losing out to television is still a hot topic today.Find Stacy at: twitter.com/stoocytroobPodcast Like It's 1999: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/podcast-like-its-1999Twitter: twitter.com/podcastlike1999Instagram: instagram.com/podcastlike1999Reddit: reddit.com/r/podcastlikeits
