Come on come on, come on, what are you staring for . Come on robinson apparently tired, punched with a fairly well and rocked jake lamotta right to his heels. Come on, ray. A director and actor find a story at the right time and the right place. And out comes this amazing combination of cinematic virility and absolute fear. Its like watching an animal. I think raging bull is a great title and the film fulfills the promise. The reality of the boxing and the great slow motion, all the Black And White gore. The violence of the flashbulbs going off. When he designed the movie, marty purposefully, he didnt put a clutch on the film. Theres no clutch. Hey, ray, never went down, man. You never got me down, ray. Raging bull is a boxing movie for people who dont like boxing because its really not about that. Its about this man, jake lamotta, who was based on a real person, whos really at war with himself. Come on. Harder. Harder. I didnt really understand boxing, but the character was interesting. He was just so contraire, as they say. He was just so difficult. What are you trying to prove . What does it prove . Rob de niro, hes not afraid of the negative characters. Hes not afraid to go to those, as they say, those places. I was down to 152 in my prime and then i went up to 212. So i gained 60 pounds. Its not easy, though. The first 15 pounds, its fun. Then its drudgery. Got get em, champ. Its absolutely true that the the movies of 1980 look like movies of the 1970s. Were very personal, very passionate filmmaking rules. And then when ordinary people, which was the movie that defeated raging bull for best picture in 1980, this incredibly precise and very emotional study of a family in deep crisis. Calvin, give me the camera. No, i didnt get it yet, bev. Come on, give me the camera. Dad, give her the camera. I want a really good picture of the two of you, okay . No, but i really wanna get a shot of the three of you men. Give me the camera, calvin, please. Not until i get a picture of the two of you. Cal hang on a second. Give her the god[bleep] camera ordinary People Centers on people who cannot get in touch with their feelings and who avoid the darker underpinnings. So i like to tell a story about what people will do to avoid being seen for who they really are. I gave Mary Tyler Moore the script and i said, look, i can see you playing this. She was drawn to it, and that really hit me cause that told me that there is some part of herself that she was willing to expose that had been not exposed before, and she wanted that chance, and so she was given that chance, and she did a great job. Calvin . That moment where Mary Tyler Moore comes downstairs and she asks her husband, whats wrong . I dont know if i love you anymore. She goes upstairs and shes just theres something so moving to me about somebody who is so deeply repressed, cracking open. Thats where the dam breaks. She gets hit by some truth that she cant articulate. Shes so taken back, she cant adjust, she can take it in. Thats what that moment was about. Then you look at some of these films of the 1980s, like ordinary people, and like blue velvet, those films are explicitly about how things look are not the way they really are. You have to understand, this was when Ronald Reagan became president , and the idea was that after all sorts of traumas, particularly watergate and vietnam, we healed, but as the public pronouncement is, were good again, our movies are telling us, no were not. No, we are not. Wendy . Im home. I play this game. All your favorite filmmakers, alive or dead, were opening a movie on the same day, which movie would you see first . And for me, it would stanley kubrick, because youre gonna see something you never saw before, and he did that in, think about it, every genre. Hes gonna make a horror movie, its gonna be the horror movie done in a way that you would not expect. To me, the shining isnt about horror. Its about dread. From the very first frame, something grabs your solar plexus and pulls on it. Nobody uses silence like stanley kubrick. Mom it was as if i had been in the overlook hotel for two and a half hours. He creates a pacing where it overtakes the way youre breathing and the way youre existing, and youre in there. In all kubrick films, he controls you. Kubricks Steady Cam Work in the shining broke new ground. The steady cam gave stanley a chance to put us in a scene that didnt have any time constraints. You get so hypnotized being behind that tricycle. You dont even see his face. Youre behind it, which leads to one of the scariest shots in the movie. Hello, danny. Hello, danny. Come and play with us. Its fantastic. United artists was betting 40 million on its new movie, heavens gate, but after two years of preparation and eight months of production, the Motion Pictures been yanked from american theatres after only one day. Heavens gate took almost a year to complete. Director michael cimino, whose deer hunter film was a great success, got a free hand. His producer said he was out of control. The result . A three and a half hour bomb. Heavens gate is a stake through the heart of the auteur era in hollywood. Its the Cautionary Tale thats held up to say, no, no, the studios gonna step in here and this is not gonna be another heavens gate. And thats how you get the movies of the 1980s. You knew where you were when you first saw the Empire Strikes back, because it was the star wars movie that took the whole thing to a whole other level. Star wars was huge. But Empire Strikes back was phenomenal. These established characters, you saw them intermix in a way that you hadnt in the previous film, where theres this budding romance going on between han solo and princess leia. I love you. I know. Luke is transitioning into wanting to become a jedi knight. I saw it as, this is the good act, because in classical dramatic philosophy, you set the thing up in the first act. In the second act, your heroes are put in a position that is unresolvable. Theyre put in enormous jeopardy. You dont know how its gonna work out. And that is always the most interesting part of the story to tell. Obiwan never told you what happened to your father. He told me enough. He told me you killed him. When we actually started work, it was just me and george in the office, and george says to me, you know, darth vader is lukes father. I am your father. No [bleep] . Noooo it was about fathers and sons and about good and evil personified. It is your destiny. I thought that made the whole saga better instantly. Er this .

Four of the biggest moneymaking films of recent times have come from two young gifted filmmakers george lucas and steven spielberg. Theyre friends as well, so it was inevitable that these two would join talents, and they now have in an Adventure Film to be released this week. George says, i have something called raiders of the lost ark. Its just an idea i have for a movie. They told me about this sthave movie. They told me about this story of this sort of Marauding Adventure Archeologist with the hat and the whip. And i committed to the movie just based on the oneline story george told me. And then, larry, george, and i, we just sat around for three days and basically made up the story from beginning to end. Theres a line in raiders that means a lot to me. Just buried there in the middle of a big action sequence. Theyve lost control of the Ark Of The Covenant and indy says, no, im gonna get it back. And his friend, says, how are you gonna do it . I dont know, im making this up as i go. That to me was what life was like. We just make it up as we go. And Indiana Jones is very good at that. We came up with an idea, like a truck chase, and then we figured, well, how do we get the truck chase in the movie . So we had these big kind of subjects and then we kind of reverseengineered in order for it to earn its place in the story. Pi selberg is a master of staging. Even when theyre moving very fast and cutting very quickly, you always know the lay of the land. He can create suspense out of details big and small. And theres always the Action Audience can see, but the characters cant see. So the audience is aware that, not only is indy maybe gonna get gets up when you watch him. Its craftsmanship and art. Everybody in this town is talking about Steven Spielbergs latest film, e. T. I was there at 12 00 noon today, and there were literally thousands of people in the street waiting to get in. The wait is hours long in chicago, days long in los angeles. E. T. Has become the movie industrys biggest moneymaker ever. I had this story i was gonna write about, how the divorce between my mom and dad affected me and my three sisters. And so, i combined that with one about an alien who himself is divorced from his own species and is lost 3 million lightyears from home. I dont like his feet. Can you imagine if that film didnt have those kids . Every one of them . Henry thomas, drew barrymore, robert mcnaughton. Thats the secret sauce to this movie. I just want to say goodbye. All the kids had fallen in love with e. T. , and i like to think e. T. Had fallen in love with all of them. And that Goodbye Scene was genuine. Those tears were real. Be good. Yes. Steven spielberg movies theyre big blockbusters, but they are personal stories. They are small stories told against a giant canvas. Theyre here. With the 1980s, i really felt that i was speaking to myself, loving escapism. Poltergeist was about all the things that scared me. I had a tree out my window as a kid, used to scare the [bleep] hell out of me. So what happens in poltergeist . The tree comes into the house and grabs the kid. I made stories about kids on one final adventure as the goonies and discover the riches that save their parents homes. Suburban stories about gremlins running around and tearing things up. Just loving stories that were bizarre. Everybody has dreams or thoughts, fantasies of going back in time somewhere, and bob zemeckis put it together for the modern age. Are you telling me that you built a time machine out of a delorean . The way i see it, if youre gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style . It was a mystery that it was as big a hit as it was when it came out, but what the real mystery is, is that its endured for decades. Next Saturday Night, were sending you Back To The Future this simple idea, which is, what would it be like to see your parents when they were younger . Is something that obviously is multigenerational. Geez you smoke too . Marty, youre beginning to sound just like my mother. The only thing that was weird about the story, its a boy going back in time and meeting his mother, and she falls in love with the son she hasnt yet had. That was pretty kinky for me. Thats aa big bruise you have there. But they pulled it off. I was exhausted at the end of Back To The Future. And then, he makes Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Its like he took Back To The Future and tripled it. Eddie valiant, youre under arrest. Brrrr. Here theres a scene where donald duck and daffy duck are having a piano duel, at the same time penguins are serving drinks. And if you look at the making of, of that individual scene, its utter, complete total chaos. Theres real actors pretending to be drinking, theres trays moving around on these iron rods. That was a hard movie. Thats sort of an ignorance is bliss category that that movie should fall into, cause thats a movie that no sane person would ever attempt to make. I love playing villains. When i was a kid and the first walt disney films came out, there are dark moments in each of those that scare the hell out of me. So its payback. Remember me, eddie . When i killed your brother, i talked just like this i got some moments in there that will be in their worst nightmares for the rest of their life. The trick to making that blend of live action and animation is that the live action actor has to believe it. Bob always believed that the rabbit was there. It really is an amazing performance. I mean, its really one that actors should study. Because it was made before a lot of cgi existed, it was old school moviemaking with physical special effects, Who Framed Roger Rabbit is the most complicated movie ever made.

Paul newman plays a kind of washed up lawyer who is an alcoholic, kind of ambulancechaser. What makes it uniquely lumet is that even when its movie stars, big movie stars, he manages to bring them down, in the case of the verdict, to the boston streets, and you can see the stars in the movie, but they have not turned the movie into something glamorous, but on the opposite, have entered the drudge and reality of the world that lumets painting. Oh, god, i never should have taken it. Theres no way i could win. Newman did what he was asked to do, and he was often asked to be the matinee idol and the leading man and be charming and witty and funny. And when he does the verdict, you know, it makes you cry. I mean, here, newman shows you what hes really made of as an actor. I think you guys are making a big mistake. I think you ought to reconsider. I think you ought to get the principles back together again. To see that scene where hes calling the Insurance Company to rekindle the deal that he turned down. Okay. No, no. I understand. Its really one of the greatest pieces of acting ive ever seen in my life, that phone call. No cuts. I mean, lumet just goes, okay. Here we go. So, hows your life . Oh, great. Hows yours . Not so great. Oh, were telling the truth . The big chills about these kids who were at college together in the late 60s and are now no longer antiestablishment, but actually are part of the establishment and trying to reconcile that history with their present. Movies arent being made for adults. Thats all the big chill is really. Its an adult film, and it tries to be as complex as life is. I had wanted to make a movie about something i was observing among my friends. This imagined power we came out of college thinking we had was nonexistent. I know you wanna leave me. But i refuse. When it first came out, i thought, well, this will be for this generation. The children of the 60s, this will be very relevant, and then i would meet kids who were in high school 10 years after the movie came out, said, i love that movie. Please dont leave me, girl, dont you go its about friendship. Its also about growing up. Theres something in its essence that is timeless and universal. Im marrying flap horton tomorrow. I thank god for flap for getting me out of here, and i think if this is your attitude, you shouldnt bother showing up at my wedding. Hmm. Thats thats right. No, i think youre right, that the hypocrisy was bothering me too. Terms of endearment, based on a book by larry mcmurtry, adapted and directed by james l. Brooks. It made you cry. It made you laugh. It was the stuff of life. Just a minute. Shirley maclaine plays aurora. She gets involved with an astronaut, played by jack nicholson. Fly me to the moon they just had this incredible comic chemistry. The romantic scenes between them are hilarious. Its not my fault, but im sorry. If you wanted to get me on my back, you just had to ask me. Terms of endearment may be the first dramedy. You know, its a word we hear all the time. A movie thats funny and tragic, simultaneously. Its time for her shot. You understand . Do something all she has to do is hold out until 10 00 and its past 10 00
