Episode Transcript
[00:00:00] Speaker A: Hello, everyone, and welcome to another fantasmagorical, outrageous episode of How Betty Davis Saved My Life. Life lessons from classic Hollywood. I'm Moya.
[00:00:12] Speaker B: And I'm Georgia.
[00:00:14] Speaker A: And I just want to give a shout out to all of our listeners and followers and subscribers on all our platforms, especially you guys, joining us live right here on Facebook. We are so happy to be here with you. And I also want to give a shout out to the birthday girl.
You know, this is, this is our friend George's. This is our time of the year to shine. And so she's. She has. It's coming up. And we love. I love you, Georgia. We love you, George. And we just want to say happy birthday. Early birthday to you.

[00:00:54] Speaker A: And so. And so let us know in the comments. Wish Georgia happy birthday because she totally deserves it.
And you know, we. I'm not a Halloween person. I don't celebrate Halloween. But I celebrate, like I said, every year, I celebrate Georgia, of course. And so, Georgia, what is our movie for this week?
[00:01:22] Speaker B: Young Frankenstein.
[00:01:23] Speaker A: You don't say. You don't say that, girl. I, I'm trying to do a German accent, but I don't think it's gonna work.
Georgia, are you gonna do a German accent for it? And see, she's not, she wouldn't be culturally appropriating because she has German background. But go ahead on Georgia. Yes. Young. Is it. But again, is it Frankenstein or Frankenstein? That's the question.
[00:01:47] Speaker B: Well, in Germany you would say Frankenstein.
[00:01:49] Speaker A: Okay, there you go.
Okay. Listen to that. That German accent, guys.
Oh, man.
So here we go. There's our movie posters or look, look at the artwork on this.
Gorgeous. And you know, my husband and I, we were looking at some old album covers online and the artwork from this period was just outstanding.
And this is. Ain't. This ain't no CGI or AI. This is, this is someone's actually hand drawn artwork. So pretty cool. So, yeah, Georgia, let's get it started.
[00:02:34] Speaker B: Yeah, well, you know, I wanted to tell you something. I found out about that particular poster that you're showing here. At one point, somebody, they had drawn it with like a McDonald's stuck up there on the mountain with Mountain Castle. But then they took it down.
I thought that was just kind of funny. But anyway, crazy.
[00:02:52] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:02:52] Speaker B: All right, well, I'll get the ball rolling here. This movie was made in 1974, so we are now celebrating its 50th anniversary.
[00:03:04] Speaker A: That may or may not be My year of birth. But let's go on.
[00:03:09] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, anyway, this is another comedy by the popular Mel Brooks and he's still alive right now. He's about 97 or 98 years old.
[00:03:20] Speaker A: Ask you that. How old is he? Good goobly goop. Yep.
[00:03:25] Speaker B: And there are other cast members who are still alive right now that they include Jean Hackman and they also include Terry Garr. Now Terry Garr, she recently it was revealed that she had multiple sclerosis. Oh, I didn't know that. Yes, she does. She's battling multiple sclerosis. And it also features Gene Wilder, Peter Boyle and you'll recognize him from Everybody Loves Raymond.
[00:03:58] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:04:00] Speaker B: We also have Cloris Leachman and Marty Feldman, Madeline Kahn as well. So you've got just a treasure trove of talent in this movie.
[00:04:11] Speaker A: And this is Terry Gar for those of you who don't know. So it's just. So who's left? Mel Brooks, Terry Gar and.
[00:04:19] Speaker B: And Gene Hackman.
[00:04:20] Speaker A: Hackman. Okay. Yeah. From the. Even though he does a cameo and I had to really look. So we'll show him in a second and. And you know he has such a distinct voice and it's distinct look. But I had to look at him. I was like, is that Gene Hackman? So yeah, shout out to Jean Hackman. I think two time academy award winner.
[00:04:39] Speaker B: I believe you got me on that one. But my instincts tell me I think you're right.
[00:04:46] Speaker A: I think so. I think so. But go ahead, girl.
[00:04:50] Speaker B: Well, you know, Gene Hackman actually asked for this role because with very serious.
[00:05:02] Speaker A: So funny. Good for you.
[00:05:05] Speaker B: And he pulls off. He really demonstrates his comedy chops because if you've seen the original movie where this comes from, it is all the more hilarious if you know what. What happens with the blind hermit scene.
[00:05:16] Speaker A: Right.
I know. Spoiler. So I guess that's maybe one spoiler maybe. But it's Gene Hackman as the playing the blind black hermit. And so. And here he is with the Peter Boyle's monster. And Peter Boyle had really only done drama as well, I believe. I don't think he had any comedy up until this point.
[00:05:46] Speaker B: Oh, I don't know the answer to that one. But he is amazing in this role.
[00:05:51] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:05:52] Speaker B: I cannot get over the way he displays such and humor all at the same time. It's amazing because you feel sorry for him and you laugh and he's pathetic. Everything all at the same time. He's just brilliant in this role.
[00:06:06] Speaker A: He is, he is. Absolutely.
And let's get a better picture. So yeah, this One if you don't know. So I was a young Frankenstein.
Frankenstein. You said Virgin. I had not seen it. I don't know why. It just was off of my radar. And then we were trying to come up with movies for this, this year and was like, crap, yeah, let's do it.
[00:06:32] Speaker B: Moya. I have to know. So was this a make me like it or did you actually like it?
[00:06:39] Speaker A: I loved it. And I was so mad at myself. I was like, we could have done a reaction to this movie. And I thought about after the fact, then I tried to record myself doing it. Just wasn't the same. So I apologize, guys, but look, on YouTube, there's a kajillion of reactions to this movie because it's a classic. But no, I. Georgia, I did think it was going to be a make me like it. And.
And so I. I am pleasantly surprised that it was hilarious.
[00:07:16] Speaker B: I'm so glad you liked it, because I wanted to do something that would be fun and, you know, seasonal for Halloween.
And, you know, this movie was made by people who really loved the original, you know, horror classics that it was made from. And you can tell their obvious admiration for the movie.
And because there were. There was the original Frankenstein, there was Bride of Frankenstein, Son of Frankenstein, and.
[00:07:40] Speaker A: Ghost of Frankenstein, and not all up to the quality. I think after the first two kind of went downhill, in my opinion. It was campy, you know, it'd be like that. But don't look for the same type of vibe as the first two. The Frankenstein and then the Bride.
[00:07:58] Speaker B: What I love about this movie is the magnificent recreation of the 1930s style that they. The same lab equipment. The exact same. They found the man who did the. All of the lab equipment. They found him. He had it in his garage and they convinced him.
Yes. Some of this trivia about this movie is really amazing. So he. He brought, brought. They brought it out, they dusted off, got rid of all the cobwebs, and they actually. That's why it looks so familiar to you.
Yes. And they said, if you do this for us, we'll make sure that you get put prominently in the credits. Which you didn't get credit for the previous time, back in the 1930s.
Yes.
[00:08:42] Speaker A: Oh, my gosh. Because the lab and all the equipment that was like. That's so iconic. It's a. It's a character within itself. That's. That's amazing.
[00:08:52] Speaker B: It is. It's amazing.
[00:08:54] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:08:54] Speaker B: And, you know, there's such attention to detail because the studio didn't want him to shoot it. In black and white. And Mel Brooks insisted.
[00:09:02] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:09:02] Speaker B: And in order to have the same look of the earlier movies, he used. Also, besides black and white, he used vintage style opening credits. He used wipes, these little transitions, the stylish transitions that they used back in the 1930s. So you'll notice that the way he moves from scene to scene is just so, like, so lovingly done from the 1930s style.
[00:09:30] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. And. And just real quick, so look at in color, there's probably some stills from onset, cameras, photographs, versus the black and white. It had to be done in black and white.
[00:09:49] Speaker B: Absolutely. Yeah. It doesn't capture the same.
It wouldn't have been nearly as good.
[00:09:58] Speaker A: So tell us the plot. What is the plot?
[00:10:00] Speaker B: Oh, I'm gonna get right to the plot. Yes, ma'am. Okay, so, all right, what we have is Dr. Frederick. He pronounces it Frankenstein. Frankenstein. He is a distinguished neurophysiologist, but he's deeply embarrassed by his grandfather's infamous reputation and his crazy theories. So he insists on pronouncing his name Frankenstein instead of Frankenstein because he wants to separate and distinguish himself from his late, notorious grandfather.
[00:10:35] Speaker A: Well, and I'm gonna play a clip of that, and we probably get copyright struck, but it's okay. But I'll play a clip of some of his neuroses on display in his class. Go ahead.
[00:10:48] Speaker B: Well, so he learns that he's inherited his grandfather's castle, and he travels to Transylvania, and he discovers his grandfather's secret to bringing life back to the dead.
But, well, things don't go as planned because, well, his faithful assistant, Igor. Not pronounced Igor, but Igor brings back the wrong brain from the brain depository.
And so there's. So the monster goes on the loose, and he eventually evolves into such a character. And I'm not going to spoil it for you, but it is hilarious because he wants to, like, make the monster into a more popular figure, shall we say? And in the midst of all of this going on, Dr. Frank and Dr. Frankenstein's fiance unexpectedly arrives to the castle. And as they say, hilarity ensues.
[00:11:56] Speaker A: Yes. I mean, Madeline Khan plays the.
There's so many great comedy people in here that is so hard to.
Everyone chews up the scenery, everyone does his or her part.
And let me just share this real.
Oh, this is what Georgia is talking about. So there's so many gags and stuff. So it says, do not use this brain. As you can see, the brain is no longer there because Igor.
Abby, normal girl.
[00:12:37] Speaker B: Yes, Abby, normal.
[00:12:41] Speaker A: Look at the movie it will make sense when. When you see it. But yeah. So Madeline Khan shows up as. And I. I miss her so much. I was such a fan of hers and I'll get her a picture in a moment. I was such a fan of hers because I. Let me see.
When did I first see her? Gosh. Oh, I can't remember. But I just was such a fan of hers. She was just so funny and outrageous without. She. She understood every comedy assignment and she knew how to ape. Like she. In Blazing Saddle, she was doing Marlena Dietrich and a. Kind of like a May west, but still Megan and her. So. And her voice, her singing voice. Oh, you get to hear her here. You get to hear her, hear her hit some notes. And the reason why she's hitting some high notes is quite hilarious. So if you are easily offended, this movie ain't for you. Right, Georgia?
[00:13:43] Speaker B: I have to agree with you. But. Yes. About Madeline Kahn. She really did. She was a trained opera singer.
[00:13:49] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:13:49] Speaker B: And so in this movie, she sings how she's supposed to and it's amazing. But she makes it comedic, which is so. Oh, it's off the charts. But yes, it's R rated. It is. So you'll find out why. But she also. She sang off key when she played the character Lily Von Stuck in Blazing Saddles. And it's very, very difficult for a very. For a trained singer to sing off key. Very difficult. But she pulls it off. She is absolutely. Some of the lines she has in this movie, they were fall down funny.
[00:14:22] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:14:22] Speaker B: I mean, fall on the floor laughing funny. That she hasn't. She has some of the best lines in the entire movie.
[00:14:30] Speaker A: Right. And what I love about Mel Brooks is classics like this one and Blazing Saddles in a break. What they call the fourth wall, or whatever them walls are where they look at the camera, but it's in his gimmicks as Easter eggs. And slap. You know, what do you call that? Slap comedy. You know what I'm talking about? Like the Three Stooges slapstick. Thank you. But it's not corny. You know, Georgia is not too old. It's perfect. It's not too over the top. It is perfect. And it's not like, hey, laugh at this gag. It's not like that because they'll. Because I think Mel Brooks, who I believe he wrote if not all of this stuff by himself, but the majority of it, if he had a partner. But he. He wrote on all his projects.
You. He's the. The movie is a joke. He's in on A joke. The audience isn't on a joke. The audience is the joke. I love it.
[00:15:25] Speaker B: I'm so glad you feel that way. But, you know, the original concept for the movie, the idea came from Gene Wilder. He was talking to Mel Brooks while they were making blazing sounds. He goes, I've got this idea about Frankenstein. And at first he wasn't all that up, but then they got together, they collaborated on the writing of it. So this is what you see. They co wrote it, and they were nominated for an Academy Award for the adapted screenplay.
Oh, God, that. I still can't look at that picture without laughing. Oh, my God, that's hilarious.
[00:15:55] Speaker A: So this is a little. A little. A tad bit of a spoiler, but you got to see how she gets to this point because they. They covered everything. So please look at that. But, yeah, Georgia, keep talking. Don't let this distract you, this foolishness. Madeline.
[00:16:08] Speaker B: Oh, my God. There. She's like, oh, God. Well, you know, I also wanted to give some props to. God, I. That is just. I cannot. That is always gonna make me laugh. I want to also give some props to the late Marty Feldman.
[00:16:22] Speaker A: Absolutely.
[00:16:23] Speaker B: Because he's got these, like, bulging eyes that are askew.
They're protruding, and then they're perpetually darting back and forth. And the thing was, what people don't know is he had a botched surgery when he was very young, and it resulted in his eyes having that condition.
[00:16:45] Speaker A: I thought he had, like, thyroid as well or some kind of disease as well. But this is from a surgery.
[00:16:51] Speaker B: That's what my research uncovered.
[00:16:53] Speaker A: Okay. Because I think where I got that from, one of these actresses used to be on Murphy Brown, I think Faith Ford or something. And she had what he has, and I think it was thyroid. This was years ago. And then they referenced Marty Feldman. So I think that had a part to do in it as well. But so if. Guys, if I'm incorrect or correct, let us know in the comments.
[00:17:17] Speaker B: Yeah, people, that is true. People with thyroid disease, not all of them, but some often do have, you know, you know, more bug eyes, you know, that protrude a little bit more. That is very true. Yes.
So I think it's just so great to see the way that they have been able to pull this movie off.
They.
One of the things that I wanted to tell people about is there is a funny thing that happens. They repeat the joke over and over through here. There's the great Cloris Leachman. She plays Frau Blucher.
And every time. Well, there's a reaction to. With the horses, every time they rear up when they hear her name. And Gene. I mean, not Gene, but Mel Brooks told everybody that the word in German for glue is Blucher.
And so horses thinking glue, glue factory, you know, terror and fright. Ah, that's how they react. But actually, I looked up the word for glue, and it's a different word. So he got that wrong. Yeah, he got it wrong. Glue. Her is a very common name in Germany. And so they're trying to show that her character. They're trying to emphasize, like, what kind of a fearsome character she is. And so she drew on, like, a fake mole and she's there. There's a scene in there that's really funny. When she asked. When he first arrives at the castle and she asked him what he wants to drink, and she actually improvised it. It's hilarious.
[00:18:57] Speaker A: Oh, gosh. So he. So that's another little Easter egg that. That inside joke wasn't accurate. That's funny. Good research, Georgia. That is so funny.
Let's look at the monster in color whilst you're talking about whatever you want. So here he is in color. Let's take a look at him. Peter Boyle.
I wonder. And was he really that tall? I wonder, was he.
[00:19:27] Speaker B: He is a tall guy. Yeah.
[00:19:32] Speaker A: So his makeup reads blue, which is.
Well, I guess for the black and white, they had to have that read like that. Okay, go ahead, ma'am.
[00:19:44] Speaker B: Yeah, well, also, I was just gonna say that a lot of people know him from, like I mentioned before, Everybody Loves Raymond.
And, you know, also this was. Gene Wilder said in interviews that this was the favorite of all the films that he.
[00:20:04] Speaker A: Oh, really?
[00:20:05] Speaker B: Yeah, absolutely.
[00:20:07] Speaker A: Okay, that's crazy. I want to get another picture of Cloris. And then I have an interview that she did about doing it. So here she.
Girl, she was outrageous. And remember her in High Anxiety? I think I saw that. Why? Obviously, I saw that first because it's my first time seeing Young Frankenstein. And she was ridiculous in that with those. Those missile boobs. And her. And Harvey Carman's character was carrying. Have you seen High Anxiety?
[00:20:35] Speaker B: Yes, I. I saw. When it first came out, I loved it.
[00:20:38] Speaker A: Yeah. I only saw it on TV as a kid, and even I was a kid and probably a lot of jokes went over my head, but Mel Brooks comedies are so physical. It's almost like watching a live action cartoon. His movies and the people, like I said, like you said, look at the mustache and the mole. And Cloris Leachman said before that people really think that she's from some Eastern European country or something like that. Because she can do those accents so convincingly. And then she can do. She can merge in between, you know, Austrian and. Versus, you know, another country right around it. So it. So I miss her so much. So I think is she's one of those few of those egots, because a woman has to have. She has an Oscar. So she was this. Her first. I think this was her first comedy role, right. Because she had just won for the Last Picture Show.
[00:21:31] Speaker B: I don't know.
[00:21:32] Speaker A: Okay, I'll look that up and see when was the last Picture show because she won the Oscar for that and.
Well, she did, of course, Marry Tyler Moore. And I think she did the Last Picture show. So. Yeah. 71. Yeah. So I want to say that this was her first movie comedy because we. Of course, we know she did Mary Tyler Moore. She played Phyllis. Phyllis. Whatever Phyllis name was. And she was still a scene. Phyllis was crazy. I did. No, did you just look at maritime.
[00:22:09] Speaker B: Yeah, and I remember her in that. She was so good.
[00:22:12] Speaker A: So good. So, yeah, go rip Phyllis and the rest of the crew. And they had a lot of supporting cast. I'll get their picture.
Philip Mars, I think he the man of a thousand voices. And the guy. Oh, I gotta look up his name. Who? Girl, the man who played the head. It wasn't a sheriff, whatever they call him. The dude with the fake arm and all that.
Georgia. Oh, he laid me out. Okay.
He was. Girl, that was so funny. And so Mel Brooks does. Does not give a darn. He did not give everybody the handicap or whatever. Girl, you were going. You were going to get the joke. And I love it.
[00:22:51] Speaker B: Oh, yeah.
You know, that goes back. If you saw the original, like, Frankenstein movies. They have the guy, he's like the police chief or something of the town, and the monster had actually, like, yanked his arm off. And that's why he's got that fake or wooden arm. And then all the things that happened with that arm.
Oh, my gosh.
[00:23:14] Speaker A: And this is not funny, but I'ma still say it.
I was not in this person's class in high school, but my friend was. And me and my friend till this day, my oldest, dearest friend, she was in this woman's class in high school. And a woman had an arm like that. Georgia.
[00:23:34] Speaker B: Oh.
[00:23:35] Speaker A: And she. So when the woman would sit down, she would literally, like.
So she could put it in. Girl.
I don't think anyone laughed out loud because this is what, almost 30 years ago. But my friend would come back and tell me, and, girl, I'd Be in stitches. And oh, my gosh. Because, well, first of all, you're a crazy teenager, but you don't see that every day. So, you know, you had heard of people with a fake leg or something like that, but I never. I. And so when I saw the lady. So the lady would wear. A girl could be smeltering, just sweltering, rather just hot in the South.
And the poor lady, girl had to wear a. What you call that? A blazer? And she wore a glove. Girl. So. Lord Hammer. So fast forward, when I saw this, the man, you know, I thought about that teaching. Girl started laughing. I'm sorry, have you.
[00:24:27] Speaker B: Do you notice here in the picture, he wears a monocle over his eye patch?
[00:24:32] Speaker A: It's too much.
It's too much.
Mel Brooks didn't care, and we are better people for it.
[00:24:43] Speaker B: He equally offended, like, you know, people with disabilities, everything. Oh, my gosh, Right?
[00:24:49] Speaker A: If you stuttered or whatever, you were going to get it because, you know, like, now everybody's PC. But, girl, you. Everybody laughs at that, girl. Even the people who had the damn handicapped, like, especially in Black World, because you would get roasted. But, you know, bullying, like these kids, like we say, y'all soft. You couldn't handle it. You had to learn how to know how to. You had to be your own anti bullying campaign. Because whatever flaw you had, well, you know, it's gonna get magnified. And if you didn't know how to counter, oh, well, you know, girl, so. You are so right. Nobody was safe.
[00:25:25] Speaker B: I also wanted to bring up a little bit of trivia about everybody's heard the Aerosmith song Walk this Way.
[00:25:31] Speaker A: Well, guess what?
[00:25:32] Speaker B: The band had seen the movie Gone together and watched Young Frankenstein, and they decided to write the very next day after seeing the movie, they wrote the song Stop this Way inspired by the comedy gag of igor saying to Dr. Frankenstein, Walk this way.
[00:25:52] Speaker A: He's like, no, walk. No, walk this way.
There are so many gags and jokes in here, and so you have to pay attention because you. And so no. No scene is boring. Every. Every ounce of film is taken up with the most care of comedy. And visuals is great. It girl went in the hump. See, I don't want. I'm gonna stop talking because I don't want to give all these jokes away because I want people who have not seen it, like myself going fresh. Like Frankenstanza said, oh, I like to go in fresh. And. But there's something going on with Igor's hump, and that's all I'm gonna say about that?
Comedy. Comedy. Well, Georgia, we have about a little less than two minutes. What else can we say about this?
[00:26:41] Speaker B: Oh, well, this was the third most popular film that year. Number two was Blazing Saddles. It was made the same year in 1974. So it was a big year for Mel Brooks. But I did want to. But I wanted to ask you something, you know, and I wanted to say a little something about horror movies in general. But I don't know about you, but my folks let us kids watch all the horror movies we wanted. My mom would say, oh, Lord, you know, it's just like the babysitter. Hey, those kids, they don't move a muscle. So yeah, let them. Let them watch all that stuff.
[00:27:11] Speaker A: What was.
[00:27:11] Speaker B: What was.
[00:27:14] Speaker A: That's funny.
[00:27:16] Speaker B: What was your experience like with stuff like that?
[00:27:20] Speaker A: It wasn't even a conversation. Like, the first horror movie I saw was the Creature from the Black Lagoon with my granny. And because they had girl lied saying it was going to be 3D. So it was really a gag to sell ices because you had to go get the dog on icy to get the dog on 3D glasses. That did not work on a regular TV.
And so me and my great girl, we had made such a big deal out. We popped popcorn and we got the dog on glasses. And of course it was not 3D. We. So. So that's the first horror movie. But it wasn't even a thing. But our. Our family, we were more TV people. And my grand. You know, my parents. Grandparents controlled the TV and they didn't really look at horror.
And then as I got older, I'm a chicken and I don't like horror movies because like when people getting their head cut off or they tongue ripped out of their eye, girl, like my body parts start hurting, I'll get a headache. So I don't look at them. And sometimes and it's kind of silly. So to me, I. I saw Po Porter Geese. Like I like to say, I saw and I. I loved it. I was scared to death. Did you see Po Portuguese or Port Javy said this Portuguese. Did you see. Did you see that one?
[00:28:32] Speaker B: I've seen bits and pieces of, but I've never seen the whole movie.
[00:28:35] Speaker A: Okay, I saw. What's the one with the devil Girl Exorcist. Yeah, see, I read it. I'm. You read it?
[00:28:45] Speaker B: Yeah, I did it.
Yeah, I read it. It was. Yeah.
[00:28:51] Speaker A: Was the book worse than a movie or was it true or like equal?
[00:28:55] Speaker B: To this day I'm afraid to see the movie.
[00:29:01] Speaker A: Georgia. The Audience demands you look at. At the Exorcist. We're gonna do that one next year. You're gonna. You have a year to get your nerve up.
[00:29:10] Speaker B: Oh my God. Well, you know, I have this theory because I think the audiences don't go to horror movies for the terror, but I think to laugh in his face because you survive the scare and you go, haha. I'm so relieved. You know, I kind of think that's why people like scary movies. But I think laughter and fear are two of the most visceral reactions you can have to a movie. And I think it's two of the most enjoyable ones when you're in a dark theater and you're sharing it with strangers. So I think that, you know, those are like the two greatest things you can experience in a movie. Either laughter or fear. And then laughing in his face after you survived it.
[00:29:49] Speaker A: I'll take your word for it because I ain't looking at no more scary. I can't. It's just, it's too gory. Like Saw and all that. So I think the last one I saw was Chucky or Child's Play. And I was a chicken. And I was like a big girl, like 12, 13 or 14 girl scared to death. And then it scared me even more because my little cousin, I guess she was sleepwalking one night and she was about the size of that damn Chucky doll. Girl, came running in my room in the middle of the night.
[00:30:18] Speaker B: Oh my God.
[00:30:19] Speaker A: God knows why I don't remember. Like I said, I think she was sleepwalking. Girl. I'm surprised my head didn't turn white like Madeline. Kind like the Bride of Frankenstein. That was a million years ago and I still remember it. She didn't even remember it the next morning. But God was having a laugh at my expense because I was so scared of freaking Chucky. So, no, I don't look at no horror movies. I'm a chicken. I admit, I am a chicken.
Well, Georgia, I don't have anything else, guys. Georgia, I will let you take it away.
Any last. Any last things about Young Frankenstein?
[00:30:56] Speaker B: No. That really is a wrap for me. Moya. I just wanted to say I looked at this movie with so much more appreciation than I did when it first came out years and years ago. It was so much fun. And so I just want to say a lot of people have this as a tradition. They watch it on Halloween.
[00:31:14] Speaker A: Okay. Really?
Wow, I could see that. That's a lot of fun.
Well, guys, that's it for Young Franken. Frank, I'm trying to say like Frankenstein's Frankenstein.
So that's it for. For that. Georgia, what is our next movie?
[00:31:33] Speaker B: We're gonna do a Bette Davis movie. This one is so delicious. It's called the Great Lie.
[00:31:41] Speaker A: Yes. Not the small lie, not the semi. Semi great lie. Not the tiny lie, but the great lie.
And I cannot wait to talk about this, guys, because, you know, this is up me and George's. This is. This is our. Our blood. Since y'all want to be gory. This is our blood. Like to Dracula, anything Betty Davis related. And guys, please go look at this.
This is Dallas and Young and the Restless. Good. Would you. What do you think, Georgia?
[00:32:15] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, it's ah, it's excellent.
[00:32:19] Speaker A: Oh my God. This is peak Betty Davis. And Mary Astor actually won the Oscar for her role. So that will be on the 9th, everyone. 1:00pm Central Standard Time right here back on Facebook Live. You know, we like to give it to you raw and uncut on how Bette Davis saved my life. Life lessons from classic Hollywood. So I'm Moya and I. And I'm Georgia and guys, thank you so much for tuning in to with us today. We can't wait to see you on the 9th.
Enjoy. Like I said, I don't do Halloween, but you know, y'all be careful out there because you know people, the freaks come out at night, to quote the great Houdini, but not. It's starting to come out in the daytime too, so you better be vigilant. So you guys take care. You all have a great, great week. We can't wait to see you.
