00:00I don't understand when we became so useless.

00:05I feel jet-lagged, not rested, and I have kinks in my shoulder that have been bothering me for 10 days.

00:10I wouldn't want to have this brain in a child's body. I think that would be horrible.

00:13She got so low.

00:14So good to see you both. Congratulations on this film, because not only is it like super cute,

00:19but also breaks your heart when you think about the love of your life,

00:23potentially not wanting to spend or choosing to spend the rest of their life with you.

00:27Stressful.

00:28Right? I was like, I just didn't think that getting into the afterlife would be stressful,

00:31but here you are just reminding us that it just never ends, even when you die, even when you die.

00:37But one thing I was like, wow, you do this so well, is playing young, old people.

00:43Because obviously you're in younger bodies, but you're old. How did you channel your old souls?

00:49Just the fact that Joan and Larry have such a history. So I think that was something

00:54that we were conscious of, but we honestly just fell into this really, I don't know,

01:00yeah, comfortable banter. And you spend that much time with somebody, it's like you really,

01:06there's no bells and whistles. It's just like, you know, everything about that person.

01:11Saw you doing squats though. And I was still like, geez, even at my age, I'm already.

01:14Yeah, I know. And she got so low. She really did.

01:19In the film, John's AC, to you, Elizabeth, he describes you as smart, passionate and decisive.

01:26So if you were each other's AC, how would you describe the other?

01:30Um, kind, wholesome, and playful.

01:36Uh, and Lizzie, I would say...

01:38This is mortifying to receive.

01:40Um, yes, uh, elegant, um, uh, also, uh, playful, ex... deep well.

01:50It never gets easier, does it? Hearing nice things, I think, from co-stars. And I'm sure it

01:58happens a lot to you guys though, when you're doing these junk interviews, like so much.

02:02Not really.

02:02Oh, come on.

02:06I'm sure it does. If you were going to manifest yourself in the afterlife, what era of your life

02:11so far do you think you would, you would be? Because obviously it's the best, the time that you felt,

02:16the happiest that you manifest yourself in the afterlife.

02:18I mean, I would like to be some version of the body I'm in, but like not at this moment.

02:22Um, I feel jet-lagged, not rested, and I have kinks in my shoulder that have been bothering me for

02:2710 days. Uh, but I would, I, I do feel very grateful, um, uh, for the people in my life, uh, at this age,

02:37and, uh, the relationships I've built, but I would just like to be really rested, and I'd like to feel

02:42really healthy and energetic, and, uh, my brain, uh, firing. That's what I love.

02:46I don't think we ever feel rested now for the rest of our lives.

02:49I do have moments.

02:50I have moments where even I'm exhausted, and I think everything's functioning well.

02:54Like I, you know what I mean? So like, I feel like there are moments where even in pure exhaustion,

02:58it's all working.

02:59How about you, Mal?

03:00It's, it's a very similar, uh, to what Lizzie said, although I do think it would just be really

03:04fascinating. I, I don't have kids yet, but, uh, you know, my nieces and nephews, and just seeing

03:09life through the eyes of a, of a child.

03:10Yes.

03:11I wouldn't want to have this brain in a child's body.

03:13I think that would be horrible.

03:14That sounds terrible.

03:14But I, I think that would just, just a glimpse of, of what that was like, where everything was just new.

03:21Fat. And you know what? Just before I went in to see this film, I'd, I'd seen a reel where

03:25someone was going around asking people, could you live in a world without men? Like, asking

03:31women, could you live in a world without men? And could you, to the guys, could you live in a

03:35world without, uh, men?

03:37And then I went to this film, and I was like, there's a man-free world.

03:40It had nothing to do with it.

03:41Right? It was nothing to do with the film. It was really weird.

03:43Yeah, the man-free world seems to be very popular.

03:46I was gonna say, could you?

03:47And I don't understand when we became so useless.

03:52I don't know if it's that, but I was gonna say, could you live in a man?

03:54Well, you don't need them. Sounds like they don't serve a purpose.

03:56You know what? You say that.

03:58Yeah.

03:58I haven't got a boyfriend. I haven't got a husband.

04:00But I have great male friends in my life who add so much value.

04:05Yeah.

04:05That actually, I don't think, I, I wouldn't-

04:08Just even in society, oftentimes doing the jobs that not a lot of people want to do.

04:14So you wouldn't want to live in a man-free world, you know, a woman-free world?

04:17No. I wouldn't want to, no. We need to coexist.

04:21I think any gender, uh, is, uh, it doesn't matter. I think it's about the person.

04:27That's very true.

04:28Yeah.

04:28That's very true.

04:29I think there are good eggs and bad eggs and the whole spectrum.

04:32You don't want to, that's, yes, you don't want to eliminate an entire sex.

04:35No.

04:35But it was an option, at least, for some people.

04:37Yeah.

04:38Were there any worlds that we didn't get to see?

04:40There were quite a few worlds and I'm not sure what really-

04:42Our director, if you're ever able to ask him-

04:44He would know.

04:45He had just, he said when he was on the flight from London to, uh, Vancouver that he was just

04:53journaling and he had, I mean, so many different ones.

04:56Well, some that weren't, weren't allowed because they weren't PC enough for the film.

05:00Sure. Yes.

05:01Yeah, he was really trying to push-

05:03Because this film's PG-13, right?

05:04Yeah, I think so.

05:05Oh, is it?

05:05Yeah, good.

05:06Yeah.

05:06Oh, I think so.

05:07I'm just agreeing with you.

05:08I have absolutely no idea.

05:10No idea.

05:10I'm old enough to see it, which is great.

05:14Because it is great.

05:14Congratulations.

05:16Lovely to see you guys.

05:16Appreciate it.

05:17Bye.
