00:00Do you read any of the reviews or any stuff about your performances?
00:05Not really, only when they're good.
00:07Yes, that's more relaxing.
00:08No, I don't, I've never really, normally like I, you know, I promote a movie, put the work into like
00:12promoting it, ask people to go see it, and then it's just kind of out of your hands.
00:16And that's, I normally just kind of let it go.
00:20Dating the director was different.
00:23Yes, yes.
00:24You know, it's like we'd be on the tour together, I'd come back to the hotel, and the last thing
00:29I want to talk about or think about is a movie.
00:32He comes back from the tour.
00:33That's all he wants to talk about.
00:34That's all he wants to talk about.
00:35And I get it, it's his baby.
00:36He wrote it, he conceived it, he directed it.
00:38So I was doing double duty of, you know, trying to be a supportive partner while also being like, can
00:43I please, for the love of God, not think about Mother for one second.
00:48Oh, man.
00:48And then he would start reading me reviews, and then I finally was just like, it's not healthy.
00:52Neither of us are doing it.
00:53Wow.
00:54And I got to do it because if I read it, I start getting defensive, especially because, like, it's my
00:58man, and, you know, like, I'll start.
01:01And I don't want to sound like in an interview that I'm defending what we're doing in any way.
01:05Right.
01:06Like, it's awesome what we did.
01:07Some people hate, like, and the people who hate it really hate it.
01:10Right, right, right.
01:11But I don't, it's nothing that needs to be defended, and if I read a negative review, I just feel
01:15defensive.
01:16So how do you deal with criticism?
01:18Do you read negative reviews?
01:19Um, I, when I first, when I first got, when I was, when I did Billy Madison, I, that...
01:26Stop looking at me, Swan.
01:27That's right.
01:28Thank you.
01:29Thanks for bringing back the good old days there, Jen.
01:32But I, um, I read some, and I hated it a lot.
01:37I was, I was, first couple, I was like, whoa, what the hell's happening, man?
01:41I thought they were going to be right with me, and like, yeah, well, this, this was such
01:46a great time.
01:47I loved watching it, but it was so, uh...
01:49Do you want to stay home and help me shave my armpits?
01:54Juanita.
01:55Yeah, that was a good lady.
01:57She was, uh, that, that, that actress, Teresa Merritt, she was a fun woman.
02:02She didn't love saying every line.
02:03We had to talk her into a few things.
02:05By the way, every time I'm at the pool in the summer with my friends, we always say
02:08it's too damn hot for a penguin to just be walking around.
02:12See, Jen?
02:13Thank you.
02:13I wish you wrote some of these, uh, these reviews.
02:16No, it's so bizarre, because, like, you're so in the zone.
02:18You put, like, your whole...
02:20Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:21...soul and, like, body, and you move, like, to shoot a movie, like, you do all of this.
02:25Yeah.
02:25And then you love it.
02:26Obviously, you wouldn't be there if you didn't love it.
02:28Right, right, right.
02:29And then people just destroy it.
02:31Oh, yeah, yeah.
02:32Yeah, they come in and try to rip it apart.
02:35And then, so, I did stop reading them after that one, because it didn't make sense to
02:40me, and it screwed my thinking up a little bit, and, you know, when we were writing the
02:47next one, me and my buddy, we were very, like, you think they're going to hate this if we
02:53do this?
02:53And then we started saying, what's the difference, man?
02:55Yeah, it's not healthy.
02:56Yeah, let's just do what we do, and we believe in it.
02:59What was your next one after?
03:00Was it Happy Gilmore?
03:01Yeah, yeah.
03:01Oh, wow.
03:02And we, you know, we loved it, and we were young, and it was exciting, and I think that's
03:07where I did stop reading them after that.
03:08Now, on a case, you know, like, Meyerowitz gets nice reviews, and...
03:13Good ones.
03:14Good.
03:14Great.
03:15I just have them emailed to me, so I don't Google myself.
03:18Because you know what I realized with, like, Googling myself?
03:20I went on, like, a little tangent, like, a few days ago.
03:23Uh-huh.
03:23Because everybody was, like, giving me compliments about, like, the Kimmel thing.
03:26Everybody was like, it's great!
03:28So I was like, this is, like, a safe time to be bored and, like, Google myself, right?
03:31Uh-huh, yeah.
03:32And then I just got slammed with anxiety, and it wasn't even everything.
03:35I was only reading positive things.
03:37Right.
03:37I probably just Googled, like, I love Jennifer Lawrence.
03:40I don't know what I can do.
03:41That's a good one.
03:41To only get positive.
03:42But it was all positive, and I got slammed with anxiety, and it's because it's not healthy
03:49to realize how many people are actually looking and listening to you.
03:52Uh-huh, uh-huh.
03:52Like, that is such a mindfuck.
03:54That's true.
03:55It's like you're standing on stage, and then it's the whole audience is in the dark.
04:01Oh, yeah, yeah.
04:01And then they turn the lights on for a second, and you see how many people are looking at you.
04:04Yes, yes, that's never good.
04:05And, like, it didn't even matter that it was positive.
04:06It was just the idea that it was that much attention.
04:10Right, right.
04:11It's like, it's not normal.
04:12Oh, that's terrible to be thinking like that.
04:15You start checking everything you're saying and thinking.
04:19Yeah, yeah, yeah.
04:21Yeah, very.
04:22And then nothing's ever natural ever again.
04:45Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
04:45yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
04:45yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
04:45yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
04:46yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
04:46yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
04:46Grazie.
