" 187746943221877. 46 4322 last -- this time. We had Kevin Farley used to star in the movie. American Carroll -- you what it's a comedy but it's."

" It's has a conservative somewhat pro American -- them like so many movies that come out of Hollywood or -- getting -- we're already getting reviews back from people who scenes and -- day and they don't they like -- a lot the they know abuse in the papers yet because the the producers. Understood that the the average. Film review or for an American newspaper is a is a liberal and probably not going to give it to a greater overview so -- the reviews in tomorrow's paper. Papers but the joining us now and it's a real pleasure to have them on is -- very big big name in Hollywood David's soccer and he is the director and producer of an American Caroline you may recognize his name he's also the have been involved in it producing and directing the naked -- some of the naked gun movies the police squad series. David thanks very much for being -- here on the Howie -- show what though were all root for your big time here this weekend. I think certainly error. And -- The I heard rush talking about it today and that one of our listeners said that the the movie coming it's it's not one of these epics 33 -- a modern Hollywood productions how how long is your movie and how come how can be kept it shows so short."

" What about eighty which is. Pretty much you know like that at all like comedy that in order audiences -- Will be -- successful. People get tired out before our Pepsi you cannot wait to lower. Impossible. If you keep the -- flat rate we we figure we and our job."

" Yet now way. They'll pay Kevin Kevin Farley was in last night that you know you brought a joke writers I was I was -- amazed that you your movies I mean how you get so many gags it there in its its like you have -- It's almost like you as you sit out of you must be just sort of scripted saying you need at one you know to gags per per Matt Wright is that the way."

" That there is a certain rhythm to it meant that comes from -- oh doing a live our lives state chill with -- My partner my brother Gerry and Jim paper. And that would -- onstage at picking up the beauty uterus shut up. For a child so you know we it'd be up -- it was in on a spot. So in the movies try to keep that rhythm going with the audiences always -- And it's it's -- it's -- why we'll -- it easier it's easier to keep the audience laughing since the start from scratch."

" And then in and I'm sure that case away -- rush says said this afternoon that he had them he'd been given a longer version with fifteen minutes. I guess she just went through when you knocked out the fifteen minutes that where there weren't Rangel where there were few more laps right."

" Oh well we we always. You know we we shoot a hundred minutes and we cut it down to 85 and that's what it always. It's been that -- since they're like. If you don't. You know the best laid plans and it just it's that. You'd you do your best yes. And then -- but it on an audience and you see what gets response and what does it it's never the audience's -- that something done. We haven't done a joke but not -- that in the piecing it wrong so we do we do editing and we trim -- we -- listen to be ought. -- now we have for American heroine in it's in 85 minutes it just pack. What we're happy that the way to."

" 18774694322. I was just opened yesterday with -- star Kevin Farley -- you know we ought to -- who were you know but not not does show it to the critics like all like the aircraft BBR movie. And I saw exactly what you guy's dead and."

" Yeah absolutely I mean. You know what senate together -- the first good movies that we haven't sort of -- because it's so if someone usual. And and I think the odds would be stacked against. Most critics. Finally collapsed then. With the decision of a distributor. And the producers. I don't might overshadow the the quality of the will be."

" 18774694322. Army bad human really successful. It would be a lot easier for you win that in Hollywood just to sort of go with the flow and and not. Not take on this kind of risk I mean not just the budget of financial risk is -- up plenty of money but I mean that's you take it a social riskier --"

" It is the social -- I mean it's it's 90%. Right here. And at 10% of people. No 90% -- I'm sort of the -- Really get them at stake. -- 90%. -- left end and 10% right and we can only 5% of people witty and admit it I -- it a lot Spirit. If you are people I've talked to that. Don't want to speak up because beat the general -- the conversation in the courtroom and the agency meetings that in the pitch meeting is. -- is an idiot and if there's just there's no other site and in the currency is we're all Democrats and as soon everybody thinks the way they."

" What were you surprised when you started reaching out to why actors that you you were interest and and a they're they're agents were telling them you know -- it disobedient to your career if you get involved in this production."

" Well you know we don't know exactly what was that they're actors but really we approach people we already knew. It would be sympathetic to a soul. -- I had met John -- Through through this kind of small group of Republicans. And and I knew that they had that he was sympathetic to what else he had met like five years ago. He just was interest it and working would be out it sitting in working with -- and it was like you know through our friendship that we discovered these people at the eight clinical. Other people like last video that is not. You know conservative at all but just don't want to do another movie with me and I won't let along strip."

" was up I don't we're. Just look at that Leslie Nielsen cracks me up you know you have a yard."

" Funny you don't chair like political views up okay you like it but laughed and end up a lot of people you know half the -- went up. When we're Democrat and eight took a lot of what if they cannot mean spirited that. -- but a Democrat or idiot -- it's just Europe -- all the Louis -- Like the people like Rosie O'Donnell and I think in -- We've been very successful that."

" And of course Michael Moore the the Michael Moore character Michael Malone is the is the main character he's the he's the Ebenezer Scrooge here."

" You know I don't know much you know. You know actual relationships in the real character of Michael Moore because. Our guys had played by Kevin -- is pretty sympathetic and actually week although you know. Completely it'll pop that and in -- candidate and everything out. Quite an -- he would -- conservative in. Its complete fiction."

" God bless -- and only a lot of good movie apparently. It's a sad to see another work that such -- Quick look at and it's like what if that's what -- everybody share our view you know you're out right."

" Why they haven't 7469432. To a world open you can be dead bill -- my money's -- Dave and I thought I would think you you'll you give you gotta be pretty confident you can take out bill -- at the box off well."

" I'm not I'm not -- not welcome because you don't build our audience. They're there have been will be going on it you know all of what liberal and you'll stroll to support it because they're eight irritate it against christianity. I can't religion religious people are woke. Well you got people here are will be on our side. And they -- the conservative movie. It's possible bought America they're all of religion partner bought the troops -- if you will rent the beauty DNJ. You know that they can't. It's funny but -- I mean I people have it any help we don't have the the great distribution and all the other movies have and and they."

" Yeah but people -- you know they're not a fairly -- you know that the unit that are convenient. Through to our body so people have to make the extra effort to find those he would get to. Get that either if you I would say to people -- you don't have I'm able to go to -- intimate spot. And then just yet -- the -- about the -- speculation that everybody okay but. This is I mean Hollywood waiting to see. You know if if there at the conservative audience out there and they're waiting on -- decision whether to make. Movies that are optical -- America religion.
