On Cinema Season 16 Episode 08
Transcript
00:15It's On Cinema, at the Cinema, at the Manor.
00:21Hi everybody, welcome to an episode of On Cinema, at the Cinema, at the Manor.
00:28I'm New Heidecker, and we're here at the Manor.
00:34A little bit of a difficult episode for us today, because yesterday afternoon we lost,
00:43my father, Giamato, passed away suddenly, and we're here today amongst some of his closest
00:52friends and neighbors, and we're in shock, and we're obviously very upset, devastated,
01:03and decided to carry on today, and I don't even know if that's the right move.
01:11You know, we're kind of, we're in uncharted territory here.
01:16I have a commitment to my audience, and I have a commitment to this facility here to provide
01:23this experience for everybody.
01:30But it's, this is not necessarily out of the blue at a facility like this.
01:38This is fairly, I hate to say routine, but there are, there is a lot of loss at these facilities,
01:45and I knew that, but now I'm feeling it firsthand, and it is raw.
01:53That's what today is, is raw.
01:55I was up all night dealing with the hospital and the morgue, and trying to get in touch with
02:03his family, and trying to figure it out, because I do have power of attorney here with him,
02:11and the responsibilities that that brings to the table is overwhelming.
02:20And I want to, you know, we have that empty chair there, which is where G would like to
02:26sit during our shows, and here for music night and everything, and G is watching us.
02:33I think he is.
02:34I think he is here with us in the room.
02:37I know it, and he would want us to provide this, this show for you, and so we're going
02:45to try to move on from that.
02:46My guest is Greg Turkington.
02:48Hey, guys.
02:49Who knew G very well, and.
02:53He loved movies.
02:54Just getting.
02:55He always wanted to talk about some of the old movies that he'd grown up watching.
02:59And I don't want to get into the details of this too much, but he was not happy with the
03:10food here.
03:10I think we all were familiar with that, and we don't know all the details.
03:16What we do know is at some point yesterday morning, he opened and ate the contents of an
03:25an old can of soup.
03:29It was soup from the box of props that you returned to him.
03:36That soup?
03:37The Mon Pa kettle?
03:39The cream of shrimp soup from the Mon Pa kettle movie.
03:42He opened that can?
03:43The Mon Pa kettle can?
03:46That's what we believe.
03:47We don't know what happened, but we believe that he was exposed to the old cream and shrimp
03:55and everything that was in that can, which had been in there for, I don't know how long.
03:59Well, the movie came out in 1951.
04:05You know, I wish I would have been there to say don't.
04:07I would have said that.
04:09There weren't any nurses that would say this isn't don't open the movie properly?
04:13He's a nurse, he's got his own place, and he's got the independence that you guys appreciate
04:17here, and, you know, they shouldn't let outside food in the room.
04:21Well, it was a movie prop, and he had other movie props, too, that you ordered me to return
04:26to him, so.
04:27There was soup in the can, okay, and he, I don't know if you want to call it soup, from
04:33what I saw and what I smelled, but it was not something he should have eaten, and he was
04:39taken to the emergency room, and then went very quickly after that, so.
04:47But nobody noticed that he was opening that?
04:50He didn't notice?
04:52There's nobody to notice.
04:53There was nobody in his room, so I'm not going to debate this, and I'm not going to, we're
04:59not going to get into details of this, because it's so raw and fresh.
05:03And if you keep prodding on this, then you'll be creating more trouble than you'll ever know
05:11what to deal with.
05:17All right.
05:18We've got other stuff to get to.
05:20Let's just say we love you, Dad, and Giamato is here with us right now watching us, and we're
05:26going to be remembering him throughout the show, and there'll be more information on
05:32his, on how we're going to, we're going to, we have a, we'll have a bigger memorial plan.
05:38So let's, as he would want, let's talk about movies, and I don't know what's going on with
05:45me if I had this distress from this, and I've been up all night, but I can't, I've got a
05:52bug
05:52in me or something, but, and it is so annoying and frustrating for me, because I was really
05:58turned a corner last week with the health stuff, and I was feeling really good, and I'm, I don't
06:05know, I got a feverish again, and I'm losing my voice here.
06:11Let's quickly do the Wicked review.
06:13First time.
06:14Wicked for Good, directed by John M. Chu, starring Jonathan Bailey, Pierre Dinklage.
06:24Synthony Offo and Ariadne Grand, Ariadne Grand, Ariadne Grand, Ariadne Grand, follows El
06:31Faba, the future Wicked Witch of the West, and her relationship with Gilda, Glinda, the
06:37Good Witch of the North.
06:38This, this is the Wizard of Oz sequel.
06:41Your thoughts on Wicked?
06:43It's more a reboot than a sequel, because they, it's different, um, different focus.
06:49They just, they, so they took the, the Wizard of Oz, basically they turned into some sort
06:55of musical production, but new songs, but then they made a movie, which didn't have
07:01Dorothy, didn't have Toto, and I assumed that in the sequel we would get Dorothy and
07:05Toto, which are the main characters from the Wizard of Oz, you've all seen the Wizard
07:09of Oz, yeah.
07:10So, who are the main characters?
07:13It's not Glinda, it's Dorothy.
07:15Tin Man.
07:16Tin Man.
07:17And in the Wicked, the first movie, they didn't, they didn't, there's no Toto even.
07:22Um, obviously you'd recast, because the dog from 1939 died years ago, but this movie,
07:29I went into it expecting, okay, now we're gonna see Dorothy, now we're gonna, and still no
07:35Dorothy.
07:35All right.
07:36So, disappointing, disappointing.
07:38Your rating?
07:40I would, for neglecting to include Dorothy or Toto in a Wizard of Oz movie, I would have
07:50to give it zero bags of popcorn, but it's an enjoyable movie, and it is kind of neat to
07:57see the witches and, um, some of the other characters, so I'm gonna give it five bags of
08:03popcorn.
08:10Okay.
08:11What did you think?
08:12Yeah, uh, didn't get to this one.
08:16Um, so...
08:17But you had all week, before Mr. Amato passed, you could've watched it then.
08:21I understand why you wouldn't watch it today, but this is why I always say to watch these
08:25things early and don't wait until the last minute.
08:27Yeah.
08:28No, I know.
08:29You're, well, I did, I did see the, I did see enough of this to know that you're, I'm
08:34gonna double up on your rating.
08:37Um, all right, so I, this is, uh, something we organized last week and, uh, I didn't want
08:44to, um, just, I didn't want to reschedule this.
08:49It's, it's too complicated to reschedule it and, uh, and maybe we, this is what we need
08:54is a little laughter and mirth, but it's also, um, it helps him out because it satisfies some
09:00of his community service that he's required to do.
09:04Uh, we have with us a real great entertainer, um, and, uh, if he's ready, we can go to that
09:09now, is Mark Prost, is here, Magic Mark Prost with his new puppet show that he's worked
09:17out, Mark's Pro-Pits, Puppet, Mark, Mark's Pritchett's.
09:24What?
09:25Yes, close the door like we've got here this morning.
09:28He always wants it closed.
09:43Hi, everybody!
09:47Give him a sec.
09:51I'm gonna...
09:52You need this or what?
09:55No.
09:56I'm gonna do, uh, uh, W.C. Fields.
10:01You're in my shot.
10:03W.C. Fields and the Three Stooges.
10:06Or I like to call them the Three Wise Guys.
10:09Um.
10:18What is this?
10:19You, the, uh...
10:21The Stooges and the...
10:22W.C. Fields with the Three Stooges.
10:25Hey, W.C. Fields!
10:27Why don't...
10:27How are you?
10:29Oh, it's the Three Noodleheads!
10:34What are you guys up to today?
10:38Well, we thought it would be a great idea to come see you and maybe be in a movie together.
10:42We were never in a movie together, even though we were, we did, we've been doing our comedy
10:48from 1922 to 1970.
10:51Oh, that's interesting, boys.
10:53Let's do it, but we have to...
10:56We have to include...
10:58Excuse me.
11:00Include my good friend, Mae West!
11:03Hi, boys.
11:04Why don't you come up and see me?
11:09Some time.
11:12Uh...
11:12What should the movie be about?
11:15Well, I recommend that it's about, uh, a hundred minutes.
11:23No, we mean, what should it be?
11:26Well, it should...
11:27I have two Larrys.
11:31Excuse me.
11:32I brought, I brought two Larrys.
11:34Yeah, we saw that right away.
11:36All right, anything else?
11:39What about the movie they're going to make?
11:40I just started.
11:41Who's this?
11:43It's Mae West.
11:44Why don't we go up and talk to Mae West, and maybe she has some ideas.
11:55All right.
11:57What do you think, Mae?
11:59I think you all should come up and see me sometime.
12:03All right, thanks, everybody.
12:04Thank you, uh, Magic Mark.
12:06Let's hear it for Magic Mark.
12:10All right, I think that's...

12:14Go out, if you want to find out, go out in the back and talk about it.
12:16Work it out, because you're just making this shit up in front of people here, okay?
12:19No, I'm not.
12:20All right, folks, we...
12:21Do you want to show your movie now?
12:23Thank you, Mark.
