Transcript
00:00:06.020
It is Verdict with Senator Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you.
00:00:09.040
And on this holiday weekend, we decided to replay an awesome episode that we did about
00:00:16.460
And that is Senator Ted Cruz's favorite movies, a great list.
00:00:20.780
And if you are like the two of us and you love to watch movies over the holiday break
00:00:25.880
with your family, you do not want to miss this list.
00:00:29.480
What are you going to rewatch during Christmas this year?
00:00:32.040
Well, listen, let me just say Merry Christmas to everyone.
00:00:34.800
I hope you're having a wonderful, relaxing Christmas.
00:00:37.320
And one of the things that I've always done at Christmas from when I was a kid to now
00:00:45.700
And so we go to the movies, particularly Christmastime.
00:00:50.180
And so we want to play you a list of 30 of the greatest movies of the 21st century.
00:00:56.460
And if you watch them, put a comment down below.
00:01:04.280
But here is 30, any one of which would be a great way to spend some time with your family
00:01:11.740
Senator, people that don't know you well, I'm going to give them a little bit of a clue.
00:01:21.660
And you put together a list of your favorite movies and also series and shows that you watch.
00:01:28.040
And if you've ever wondered what Senator Cruz is watching when he's flying all the time,
00:01:31.820
here's a really good list we're going to be giving you on this Christmas.
00:01:37.420
I hope you're having a wonderful and blessed day.
00:01:39.740
I hope Santa came down the chimney and your kids are overjoyed and you're spending time
00:01:47.140
We often do Christmas by the tree where I'll be in my bathrobe.
00:01:58.500
And it's a beautiful time to reflect not just on the love your family has for each other,
00:02:02.940
but the love God has for us and the salvation he sent for us.
00:02:06.020
Now, I don't know about you, but over holidays, what my family has always done is we go to movies.
00:02:18.180
I would go to movies with my mom and dad when I was a little kid.
00:02:22.580
By the way, you're a movie theater guy, just so people know this.
00:02:28.020
I like popcorn and gummy bears and the experience of being there.
00:02:33.100
And by the way, I'm also rabid about staying until the very end,
00:02:41.640
There's a sense of completeness of appreciating the entirety of the movie.
00:02:46.760
And so what we decided we do today is put together just a compilation of movies that I love,
00:02:55.240
And hopefully, as you're taking some time with your family,
00:02:57.940
maybe you'll go watch one of them and laugh or cry, and it'll touch you,
00:03:02.880
And I think art and storytelling are beautiful, beautiful things.
00:03:06.040
So with that being said, here are the big shows and the big movies on Senator Cruz's list.
00:03:13.360
I get asked all the time from many of you guys that are watching or listening right now,
00:03:25.180
And you're even going to find out what his favorite movies are.
00:03:29.740
And I get asked all the time when I'm all over the country.
00:03:34.740
So what is Ted Cruz really like behind the scenes?
00:03:38.000
And I say, I actually, if people got to see the side of you that I know,
00:03:47.900
And so I'm going to ask some fun questions just to kind of let people know behind the curtain
00:03:59.200
What is the last thing I watched on a plane was Outer Banks, which is a series.
00:04:10.480
And there's a reason I'm watching a teeny bopper series, which is my youngest daughter,
00:04:17.580
And when I dropped her off at camp, she said, Dad, I want you to watch Outer Banks and I
00:04:23.000
want you to write to me in letters and tell me what you think as the season's progressing.
00:04:28.840
And so I've been regularly, I write to her about every couple of days and I tell her,
00:04:42.400
Her favorite character is JJ, who is kind of a, look, I guess if you're a 13 year old
00:04:48.200
girl, he's, you know, he's always doing the dumbest thing imaginable, but he's kind of
00:04:56.360
So when you were growing up, what was it that you were watching?
00:05:05.820
So just fast forward through this, if you don't want a spoiler alert, but in season
00:05:09.920
two, when, when, when Ward has blown up, I knew Ward was not blown up.
00:05:14.640
And so I wrote her, I said, yeah, Ward just died.
00:05:18.720
And I remembered they keep scuba gear in the boat.
00:05:22.540
And then like seven episodes later, you got to figure it out and you're like, they got
00:05:29.540
So I felt pretty good that I was at least a step ahead of the teeny bopper series.
00:05:43.080
Like, like we would, you know, this is what we do.
00:05:46.060
So, so every holiday, every Thanksgiving, every Christmas, my family, we go out and watch
00:05:55.640
Die Hard is absolutely a Christmas movie, but we would go out and do movies.
00:06:00.000
When I was a kid, when I was like eight, nine years old, my dad would drop me off at the
00:06:04.440
theater all Saturday and I'd watch like five movies.
00:06:07.780
I'd go from one theater to the next, to the next, and just watch everything there.
00:06:13.140
So what I've done, done today for this show is I put together a list of 25 movies.
00:06:22.880
And I don't even know that it's my 25 favorite, but it's 25 awesome movies, which if you haven't
00:06:36.240
Well, I got to ask one more question for your 25.
00:06:38.100
What movie have you watched the most in your life over and over again?
00:06:41.640
Well, that actually happens to be number one on the list.
00:06:45.080
So, so my favorite movie of all time is The Princess Bride.
00:06:58.140
I'll tell you in college, we used to play a game called Drinking Princess Bride.
00:07:03.580
And so the way you play Drinking Princess Bride is you sit down with a bunch of college
00:07:07.220
kids, you put the movie on, and you try to say each line immediately before it's said.
00:07:13.460
If you get it right, you point at somebody, they have to drink.
00:07:21.220
And if two or more people say the same line at the same time, everybody drinks.
00:07:29.520
Look, when you get to the as you wishes, everyone can get them so they're all socials.
00:07:35.880
My problem is I know just about every line from the movie, but I'll screw them up slightly.
00:07:40.120
So I end up kind of getting myself because I try an awful lot of them.
00:07:45.720
I've probably watched The Princess Bride, I don't know, a couple hundred times.
00:08:01.140
And I'm not going to break it down between one, two, and three.
00:08:04.120
I even like three, which is a bit of a heretical idea.
00:08:07.580
I think three stands on its own as its own movie the least.
00:08:12.040
That three only makes sense in conjunction with one and two.
00:08:18.660
Like you can't fake it and go see number three and think, oh, that was incredible.
00:08:27.480
You know, from three, every time I get out, they keep pulling me back in.
00:08:31.840
I will say it was a little depressing with my team where I turned, you know, Senate staffers
00:08:42.060
Your average Senate staffer is like 23, 24, 25.
00:08:46.520
So things like Godfather quotes, they just don't get.
00:08:53.580
I said, you know, this is the business we have chosen.
00:08:58.600
And I said, okay, I have like six staffers there.
00:09:00.820
I said, all right, do any of you have any idea what I'm saying?
00:09:08.400
And this is a conversation between Hyman Roth, who is clearly modeled after Meyer Lansky,
00:09:15.440
Hyman Roth and Michael Corleone, and they're down in Miami.
00:09:42.760
None of them had any idea what I was talking about.
00:09:46.220
You should totally bring them in one, two, and three.
00:09:55.500
All right, favorite line from any of the Godfathers, the best one.
00:10:16.400
And look, Scarface, Tony Montana, he's Cuban.
1.00
00:10:26.860
To be honest, I'm not going to because they're pretty off color, and I'm going to avoid putting
1.00
00:10:31.180
out on the podcast some of the language from it.
00:10:46.000
I'm actually shocked by that one, because if there was only one box that I could take
00:10:50.040
with me my whole life, like if I was stuck on a desert island, it'd be West Wing.
00:10:58.600
But Criminal Minds, I just find it fascinating.
00:11:02.040
When Criminal Minds is on, she's like, turn that garbage off, because, you know, you've
00:11:07.040
I'm like, no, no, they're the bad guys, though.
00:11:09.940
But she just doesn't like that in the house.
0.98
00:11:25.020
Chevy Chase plays Erwin Fletcher, an undercover investigative reporter.
00:11:41.240
I love Chevy Chase, but Fletch is head and shoulders above them all.
00:11:46.280
You know Grant, who heads up my security detail.
00:11:49.080
Grant and I quote Fletch lines back and forth at each other every week.
00:12:04.880
A lot of people have not seen it, but it is a very good...
00:12:10.680
Now, William Wilberforce was a member of parliament in the United Kingdom who led the effort to abolish the slave trade.
00:12:21.020
And Wilberforce, so when he started as a young MP, the slave trade was the United Kingdom's single greatest source of revenue.
00:12:33.140
And he begins as this young MP arguing, we must end the slave trade.
00:12:41.780
And it would be like if you were in Texas standing up saying we should ban oil and gas.
00:12:53.700
And the movie ends with him successfully championing and passing the legislation abolishing the slave trade and shutting down their most lucrative business because it was evil.
0.50
00:13:04.680
And by the way, the title, Amazing Grace, do you know where it comes from?
00:13:10.360
So the person who wrote the hymn, Amazing Grace, was a friar who had been the former captain of a slave ship.
00:13:23.780
And think of the words of the song, Amazing Grace.
00:13:26.160
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me.
00:13:31.340
I once was lost, but now am found, was blind, but now I see.
00:13:47.980
I mean, you think of the evil entailed in being the captain of a slave ship.
00:13:53.580
And then the amazing grace that God offered redemption, even in the face of the horrific evil, it puts a whole different character.
00:14:05.440
The book is by Eric Bataxas, who's a fantastic author.
00:14:19.220
This is why it makes me laugh when we get to do shows like this, because I will go watch these now.
00:14:37.700
You were actually out of diapers when it came out.
00:14:46.980
What's interesting about Unforgiven that is so powerful is it turns all of the stereotypes of the Western on its head.
00:14:55.660
So, for example, Clint Eastwood plays this outlaw who had turned over a good leaf and was good and then was going back, gets hired.
00:15:06.940
What happens is a woman who is a prostitute is badly cut up by a drunk cowboy and they put out a reward to kill the cowboy who cut her up.
00:15:18.500
And Clint Eastwood, as this retired outlaw, needs the money and so is coming to collect the reward.
00:15:25.860
And Morgan Freeman, his partner, comes with him.
00:15:28.520
But there's a point where Clint Eastwood, you know, there's a young kid who wants to be a gunslinger and he's like practicing on shooting fast.
00:15:36.880
And like Clint Eastwood says, well, you know, for me, this is about as fast as I can draw my gun, point it, aim at it, pull the trigger and hit what I'm aiming at.
00:15:48.680
And he said in most firefights, people are scared out of their mind and they're just terrified and whoever can kind of calmly engage is who wins.
00:15:58.640
And there's there scenes where like everyone's like, oh, crap.
00:16:01.260
And they shoot their foot and they drop their gun and they're like freaking out.
00:16:04.220
And he kind of and he would just get drunk and just sort of systematically bang.
00:16:08.760
And it it really did invert many of the the conventional wisdom of being a fast draw on everything else.
00:16:20.280
It is. He's the sheriff who initially you think might be the hero, but he very quickly becomes an antihero.
00:16:30.780
Canadian women are looking for more, more of themselves, their businesses, their elected leaders and the world around them.
0.70
00:16:37.100
And that's why we're thrilled to introduce the Honest Talk podcast.
00:16:43.000
And in this podcast, we interview Canada's most inspiring women, entrepreneurs, artists, athletes, politicians and newsmakers, all at different stages of their journey.
00:16:52.760
So if you're looking to connect, then we hope you'll join us.
00:16:56.000
Listen to the Honest Talk podcast on iHeartRadio or wherever you listen to your podcasts.
00:17:11.380
I remember when it came out, everybody was in shock, but I was dying laughing.
00:17:41.160
If you're offended by profanity, skip this suggestion.
00:17:44.620
I will say when we were fairly newlyweds, we went on vacation with Heidi's parents down
00:17:54.340
And we sort of, like Heidi and I remember, this is really, really funny.
00:17:57.660
And I think we didn't quite remember that every third word is a profanity.
00:18:01.540
And I'm sitting there with Heidi's parents as we're listening to the blinkity-blink-blink-blink-blink-blink.
00:18:09.060
Like, ten minutes into it, we just turned it off.
00:18:10.620
Heidi, I can't believe you brought this in front of your parents, right?
00:18:22.360
I've watched Patton probably five, six times in my life.
00:18:25.580
Do you know what I did before every Supreme Court argument I ever did?
00:18:34.220
Just the opening speech, George C. Scott in front of the gigantic flag standing up and
00:18:39.520
saying, men, the objective is not to give your life for your country.
00:18:45.240
The objective is to make that other poor son of a bitch give his life for his country.
1.00
00:18:54.480
If you can watch that speech and not be inspired, you're dead.
00:19:07.480
But there's always usually a big speech in those.
00:19:09.420
By the way, a buddy of mine collects historical military equipment and clothing and uniforms,
00:19:24.160
And I literally felt like I was ready to pull out a pistol and start shooting in an airplane.
00:19:27.980
Like, it made you think about that that actually rested right above the heart of Patton.
00:20:22.140
Not a fan of his politics, but a big fan of his acting.
00:20:25.800
Although as much, De Niro got all the acclaim, but I actually thought Robin Williams stole the show.
00:20:30.980
Well, I love Robin Williams, so this is right up my alley.
00:20:33.580
Robin Williams is one of my all-time favorite actors ever.
00:20:40.800
I was asked the question if you could have dinner with, like, any five people who would be at your table, living or alive or dead.
00:20:46.840
I had Robin Williams for years in my list because I think he's just one of the most brilliant actors and genuinely funny human beings.
00:20:53.440
So when Robin Williams passed, I genuinely cried.
00:20:57.200
And I wrote a long statement about Robin Williams on Facebook that I put up.
00:21:00.760
I hammered it out on my iPad because he is so funny.
00:21:06.540
If you've ever watched his stand-up routine on golf.
00:21:10.420
The one on golf is, again, profane, language warning.
00:21:14.460
But as funny as anything that has ever been said, like, screamingly funny.
00:21:21.420
I actually like Robin Williams even better in dramatic performances than comedy.
00:21:25.140
And he's one of the funniest human beings ever alive.
00:21:47.640
And both standing and fighting and fighting against oppression.
00:21:57.160
Again, if you're not inspired by them, you're dead.
00:22:00.880
Um, I will say, Mike Lee, there's an app where you can put yourself, you speaking, into an audio clip.
00:22:11.740
And he and I used to send things back and forth.
00:22:14.180
And, you know, at the end, when Mel Gibson is being executed, he screams,
00:22:22.180
So, Mike would send me videos of him screaming to Mel Gibson's voice,
00:22:39.700
I consider that a Christmas movie because it's like, days off, I want to watch the classic,
00:22:46.580
Eddie Murphy remains one of my favorite actors of all times.
00:22:50.280
He's got a new one coming out, a sequel coming out on Amazon.
00:22:58.600
I don't know which one it was, but they were teasing it.
00:23:04.400
But, look, the original Beverly Hills Cop is screamingly funny, and I actually have
00:23:10.060
three Eddie Murphy movies in a row because I love Eddie Murphy.
00:23:13.500
Beverly Hills Cop, Trading Places, and Coming to America.
00:23:17.300
So, Coming to America was one of the first movies that was really edgy that I remember
00:23:27.020
And Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall, and they play multiple characters and all the different,
00:23:30.400
you know, in the barbershop, when you have Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall going back and
00:23:37.120
They probably wouldn't let you make that movie today.
00:23:39.960
It gets racially edgy in a way that, like, now, you know, the woke world.
00:23:51.420
Go back to young Eddie Murphy on SNL when he was, like, 19 years old.
00:24:01.860
I love, he's by far my favorite character ever on SNL when he was young Eddie Murphy
00:24:12.000
Look, he was great and he put his hole into it.
00:24:22.460
I mean, but I also love, like, comedy when there's people falling over and he could do
00:24:38.740
By the way, a line that I quote frequently, Gordon Gekko is in the locker room getting cleaned
00:24:45.340
up after playing racquetball, and he turns to Charlie Sheen and he goes, I'm on the board
00:25:08.380
Incredible movie about the African-American female mathematicians who were foundational
00:25:17.060
And for me, there are two kind of personal reasons why that movie is significant to me.
00:25:24.440
Well, when we went to see the movie, I took my mother to the movie.
0.90
00:25:32.140
My girls, it was the first time they'd seen a movie that had segregation.
00:25:36.240
The bathroom is one of the most iconic scenes in that whole movie.
00:25:39.140
And it led to, I had a long conversation with both of them, and they were like, well,
00:25:44.420
And to talk about segregation and civil rights and just sort of walk through the history of
00:25:49.040
it, it prompted really good conversations with my girls.
00:25:52.480
But secondly, so my mom, my mom graduated from Rice in 1956, and she had a math degree.
00:26:01.900
And she went to work as a computer programmer at Shell.
00:26:05.720
She subsequently went to work at the Smithsonian.
00:26:09.000
And you remember the movie Hidden Figures begins with Sputnik being launched and sort of
00:26:14.980
One of my mother's first assignments at the Smithsonian was to help compute the orbits
0.97
00:26:22.580
And so in front of the girls, I asked my mom, I said, Mom, you were doing this.
00:26:27.180
And in fact, you were doing it 10 years earlier.
00:26:34.640
And my mother thought it was very accurate, that it did a really good job of conveying what
00:26:39.400
it was like to be a woman in space and science and a technical environment.
00:26:47.820
I said, OK, one of the strange things to a more modern ear is that they referred to the
00:26:58.960
And we think of a computer as a piece of metal.
00:27:01.860
But they were actually called computers because they were actually doing the math.
00:27:11.260
And when she started at Shell, she had a business card that said Eleanor Dara, computer.
00:27:17.420
And so in response to that, I introduced legislation to rename the street in front of NASA headquarters
00:27:29.600
I introduced that legislation before it could pass.
00:27:35.160
But a D.C. city councilman saw that legislation and said, you know what?
00:27:40.320
And the D.C. city councilman introduced it in the D.C. city council.
00:27:58.780
And so NASA, the address of NASA is One Hidden Figures Way.
00:28:07.700
And I told the story of my mom, which was really cool to get to tell.
00:28:11.880
And I said, look, at some level, you might say, listen, the street sign's not that big
00:28:17.340
But at another level, you know, 50 years from now, 100 years from now, some little girl,
00:28:25.280
And they're going to look up and see the street sign.
00:28:27.080
And they're going to say, hey, what does that mean?
00:28:30.020
And they're going to hear the story of the pioneering African-American women who were
00:28:38.040
And so it's where movies and stories are powerful.
00:28:41.980
Did any of the characters of the movie, did any of them get to come to that?
00:28:55.860
The other one is that I can, I've only watched it one time because I just can't bring myself
00:29:05.760
But I just, I don't know if it's because I've become a dad and having kids now and watching
00:29:13.400
So as you know, a couple of weeks ago, I was at Normandy for the 80th anniversary of
00:29:19.060
And wildly enough, I got to meet Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, which was really cool.
00:29:24.020
And I had pretty extended conversations with both of them.
00:29:27.060
And they've done, look, their politics are both left of center.
00:29:29.900
But they've done an amazing job really honoring and telling the stories of the greatest generation.
00:29:35.520
Whether Saving Private Ryan, whether Band of Brothers, whether The Pacific.
00:29:42.060
And I was talking with Spielberg about Schindler's List.
00:29:46.120
And just, you know, talking with the heroes, the World War II heroes, who almost all say,
00:29:55.020
And the real heroes are under those crosses behind us.
00:29:58.580
And I was telling Spielberg, I said, hearing them say that reminds me of the end of Schindler's
00:30:04.740
list where Oscar Schindler is like, I could have done more.
00:30:08.700
And he looks down at his gold watch and he said, this watch, this watch could have saved
00:30:13.920
Three more people are dead because I kept my watch.
00:30:17.380
And you think about the heroism of his rescuing Jews from the Nazis and the incredible courage,
00:30:23.240
but at the same time, the like, why didn't I do even more?
00:30:26.860
And that, to me, is the most beautiful moment of that movie is the sort of.
00:30:33.720
Okay, I'm going to take a detour, a detour to the world of musicals.
00:30:46.140
So like you, if you go to New York, you would put it on your list to go see a show.
00:30:49.920
I love Broadway and I'm going to have four musicals on here.
00:30:53.560
So number one is, is my father's favorite movie of all time, which is My Fair Lady.
00:31:01.820
I've seen it because of my mom and my sister multiple times.
00:31:14.420
See, this is why I said this show would be entertaining,
00:31:17.040
because I would have never thought you were a musical.
00:31:30.500
So, look, I was, in high school, I was president of the drama club.
00:31:34.560
I have way too many one-liners, but I'll leave that for another show.
00:31:41.540
There's a reason why you would have stuck me in the locker if we had known each other.
00:31:45.740
That would have gotten you a smackdown for sure.
0.99
00:31:48.340
But, so, look, I, all politicians are frustrated actors.
00:31:59.800
Do we have eight tracks of this, or what was it, a beta camp?
00:32:13.800
You know, and I warbled out, you are 16 going on 17.
00:32:23.580
I also, so I did Oliver, and Oliver's a fabulous show.
00:32:28.640
So Oliver was my senior year, and the head of the music department told me, hey, we're
00:32:32.600
doing Oliver next year, and he said, you know, I'd love to have you play Fagin, if you
00:32:50.540
And so I actually went, and for like six months, I took voice lessons to try to get, be able
00:33:01.600
And so what happened, and the nice thing about Fagin, is Fagin's songs are more spoken
00:33:15.400
So for example, the song reviewing the situation.
00:33:26.660
And though I'd be the first to admit that I wasn't a saint, I'm finding it hard to be
00:33:33.700
So you're going to see your dad next time, I'm going to say those six months is worth
00:33:54.920
Life will cook and sew for you, and come for you, and go for you, and go for you, and
00:34:01.980
How many tickets do they sell for this is what I really want to know.
00:34:04.680
So, I prepared, that song was one, now it's mostly spoken, it's not really, so I could
00:34:12.860
do it marginally competently after six months practicing.
00:34:19.320
And then afterwards, the music director said, hey, Ted, stick around.
00:34:22.560
And he went to the piano, and he said, sing this, and he went, da-da-da-da, and I went,
00:34:26.300
da-da-da-da-da-da, and he did it like three times, and he goes, okay.
00:34:38.740
You get to beat up Oliver Twist, and you're, but I wanted to play Fagin.
00:34:44.100
I wanted to play that role badly, and I did not get it.
00:35:04.580
There are few things that make me happier than when my daughters are singing songs from Hamilton.
00:35:09.400
I mean, there was a period where they were obsessed with it.
00:35:11.880
You and I were talking about this the other day.
00:35:13.120
My dad, I took him to New York for the first time ever for his 70th birthday, and you said,
00:35:21.420
And then the next night, I was like, would you say, I'd rather have a nice meal?
00:35:28.200
And then my favorite music of all time is Les Mis.
00:35:43.160
It's the one that Anne Hathaway does that's so good.
00:35:51.640
I'll tell you, the two that get me choked up are number one when John Valjean is saying,
00:36:00.300
And he's looking down and he says, you know, if I die, let me die.
00:36:14.480
And the other one that gets me is the song Empty Chairs and Empty Tables at the end when
00:36:22.640
And I will confess at the end of the presidential campaign in 2016, as I walked through the empty
00:36:27.620
campaign office and I saw the empty chairs and empty tables, I heard the refrains of that
00:36:40.640
By the way, when I was, all right, so 1993, I was just finished my first year of law school
00:36:48.600
I was working in a law firm in New York for the summer.
00:36:52.260
And I decided to fly my mom to New York for the weekend.
00:37:00.140
And this is back when a plane ticket was a piece of cardboard.
00:37:03.020
I FedExed a plane ticket to her with nothing else.
00:37:06.100
It was literally, she opened the FedEx package and just a plane ticket to New York fell out and
00:37:09.900
she called me and she's like, Ted, I assume this is you.
00:37:12.340
I had no note, no nothing, just a plane ticket and the FedEx thing.
00:37:16.580
So I flew her to New York and we went out to dinner at Boulay, which at the time was the
00:37:23.480
And then I took her one night to see Camelot, which was really fun.
00:37:31.860
That's one of those ironed memories for us in life.
00:37:34.540
No, no, that, that was just very cool to go do that.
00:37:48.660
That's like in my dad's, like, I grew up on John Wayne and war movies.
00:37:54.220
And that was like, I remember watching it with him.
00:37:55.720
Other than Unforgiven, Magnificent Seven is the greatest Western that's actually originally
00:38:00.040
Unforgiven was sort of a modern remake format, but Magnificent Seven is exquisite with, you
00:38:05.600
know, Ewell Brenner and Charles Bronson and James Coburn.
00:38:10.860
Oh, when Mom was out of town, that was one of the movies we watched.
00:38:29.460
And I feel bad that I left Reservoir Dogs off because Reservoir Dogs is exquisite too.
00:38:35.340
But if you made me pick two, I go with Pulp Fiction and Inglorious.
00:38:41.540
So that's 25 movies, which if you've got some downtime, download them, watch them.
00:38:56.240
If you could only take one movie and one TV series to a desert island with you, what would you pick?
00:39:12.080
Don't forget we do this show Monday, Wednesday, Friday.
00:39:13.940
Every once in a while, we get to do something fun like this.
