“Oh, oh, oh, got it. Yeah, this movie is so... I saw this movie when it came out and thought, "Jesus, this is amazing. And look at this about show business, and what a great world to be in." And how unbelievably romantic it was, and unbelievably like, you know, everything in it is incredibly sexy. Even his death is incredibly sexy, Scheider's death. And so that was my takeaway of when I was, I don't know, 13 or 14 when it came out. And now I happened to watch it recently, and it's just terrifying to watch it as a middle-aged man. It's absolutely terrifying, 'cause nothing is romantic, and the death, you're like, you also feel like you're having a heart attack when you're watching the movie. Like your left arm starts really hurting and you're like, "Oh, God, this is it."”

“This is a cool, oh wow, The Vanishing. I feel like I'm in this corner too much.”

“That's very funny. Whoever in art decided to do that deserves, you know, an award. That's really good for Videodrome.”

“Oh, this is such a fantastic movie, The Friends of Eddie Coyle. This is, this is just, it's one of these movies, Peter Yates directed it, but it's one of these films that you can sit and watch it, and if someone is watching it with you and they aren't completely paying attention, the movie will end and they will have no idea what the film's about. This, by the way, I know has an amazing commentary track. You can, cook a fine, fine spaghetti sauce in the time it takes to listen to that.”

“Pickup on South Street is just a spectacular movie, and you guys did, I have your version of it. It's fantastic, it's just great.”

“Oh, Night Train to Munich. This is a Carol Reed film that I've, you know, I think it's on TCM apparently, but I keep missing it.”

“I had a request. My wife knew I was coming, of Contempt. She said, she said, "God, the, the, you know, when you see that marriage falling apart, and they don't even really talk about how it's falling apart, but you can just watch it falling apart." And she really held forth on this. And I was like, "What, is there something we need to talk... Do you really care about Contempt, or is there something else we need to chat about?" She's like, "No, I just care about Contempt." Like, okay, great. Where is, do you guys have that one? It's, it's out of print? Linda, take that! Aha! Two years of marriage and we're still going strong. No Contempt for you.”
