Welcome back Snobbies. Today we have a great little flick for I FEEL PRETTY. Caleb chose a film that he thought looked pretty and created a very beautiful scene to look at.

This one was unique and we talked through how this film made us feel and Jared shares his thoughts on just how much he hates the Shakespearean language.

Comic Amy Schumer (“I Feel Pretty”) wrote and stars in the raunchy Netflix comedy, “Kinda Pregnant.” The post Take Two: “Kinda Pregnant” (R) appeared first on KKFI.
WOWOWOWIIIIIEEEE. This pick from Cody was a bit of a curveball! We begin our next topic of “I FEEL PRETTY” where Cody picked a film from 1980 about the 1990's. A rock Opera and glamorous take on the future…this film almost left us with nothing to talk about. From director Menahem Golan comes, “The Apple.” Can I talk about the plot in this synopsis? No. Truly I don't know what to say other than this is a film about two folk signers who are tempted by fame and the evils there within. If you wanna listen to us flounder around and talk about nonsense, ENJOY!Film Discussed: The Apple (1980)Letterboxd: Eric Peterson:letterboxd.com/EricLPeterson/ Jared Klopfenstein:letterboxd.com/kidchimp/ Ethan Jasso:letterboxd.com/e_unit7/ Caleb Zehr:letterboxd.com/cjzehr/ Ricky Wickham:letterboxd.com/octopuswizard/ Cody Martin: letterboxd.com/codytmartin/Here is a COMPLETE LIST of every film that we have done an episode for.

If someone made a movie about your life, and you went to see it, would it inspire you, make you sad, happy, would you cry happy tears? How would you feel leaving the theatre after having watched the movie of your life? What's your favorite movie, and why? What movies about women inspire you? Movies mimic real life, even if we aren't always aware of it. Would your movie become a classic movie that people would still want to watch long after you leave this earth? There are two reasons to ask ourselves these questions… one is that we are the star of our own movie, so it's important to understand that the role(s) we play matter. It's also up to us as to HOW we play those roles… wife, mother, sister, etc. Do we like how we are playing these roles? Exception: We are not going to be able, or desire, to play all our roles the best we can all the time, and that's not a problem… we don't have to. I'm just suggesting we become aware of the parts we play. Often we don't think about these things… If I'm a wife, what kind of wife am I being? In movies, bad characters don't end well, and I feel it's the same in real life… how we play our part attracts a certain energy, certain people and things to us. Think about who you are (roles you play) and pick a role you like best… think of a movie where you love a character that had a transformation. The MOST important part of this idea is to ask yourself IF your movie represents the life you want to live on this earth, and what you'll be remembered by? So maybe we can borrow some inspiration from movies we like: I feel Pretty, Amy Schumer comes to mind, as far as becoming our true selves and owning our uniqueness. Her transformation was internal first, not from how she looked. Lastly… what matters is our Character, not our appearances so much (at least not always), but often they go hand in hand. Appearances are important to our visual senses, and make a huge difference in how we see ourselves and how others experience us at first. Think consciously and on purpose of the role you're playing, not just for your own enjoyment, but also for the example you're being to those who get to be part of your life, and the memory you're leaving behind with everyone you come in contact with. Play your part, or parts, in a way that you create your own movie for YOU to experience as you move forward in this life. To look back on and be glad of the actions you took… of how you played YOU!

Seven films from the summer for our 70th episode. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing and William Chen discuss the following 2021 films: Don't Look Up, Encanto, The French Dispatch, House of Gucci, The Matrix: Resurrections, The Power of the Dog and West Side Story. Don't Look Up: We begin with review by song, highlighting how much the satire was or wasn't on the nose - especially pushing a particular agenda. We celebrate the cast, especially Melanie Lynskey. We reference Heavenly Creatures (1994) and Mother! (2017). Our collective rating adds up to: 2 thumbs up and 2 thumbs down Encanto: We discuss the messages and themes of the film, especially how dark gets and how subtle it explores those ideas. We also talk about the Disney influence on the film, particularly around character and toy design. Our collective rating adds up to: 6 thumbs up The French Dispatch: Wes Anderson's latest film, with a plethora of brilliant actors. We discuss the balance of humour, pretentiousness and how Wes Anderson this new Wes Anderson film is. We compare the film to Midnight in Paris (2011), Last Night in Soho (2021), The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018) and Sin City: A Dame To Kill For (2014). Our collective rating adds up to: 6 thumbs up House of Gucci: We start by discussing the accents everyone is putting on and whether their performances are over-the-top or not. We talk mostly about the performances of Jared Leto, Lady Gaga, Adam Driver, Al Pacino and Jeremy Irons. We reference Ridley Scott's previous film The Last Duel (2021) and its similarities. Our collective rating adds up to: 2 thumbs up and 1 thumb down The Matrix: Resurrections: We discuss our general enjoyment of the film, with each of us falling in different points of the spectrum. This is in reference to the Wachowskis' works, like The Matrix Reloaded (2003), The Matrix Revolutions (2003), Speed Racer (2008), Cloud Atlas (2012), Jupiter Ascending (2015) and Sense8 (2015-18). Our collective rating adds up to: 2 thumbs up and 2 thumbs down The Power of the Dog: Jane Campion's return to the big screen, after two seasons of Top of the Lake (2013-2017), her last film being the fantastic Bright Star (2009). We discuss the fantastic cast, including Kodi Smit-McPhee, Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons. We discuss the tension in the film, in connection to Quentin Tarantino and Once Upon A Time... In Hollywood (2019). Our collective rating adds up to: 6 thumbs up West Side Story: We discuss Steven Spielberg's career-long desire to make a musical, especially remaking West Side Story (1961), referencing Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) and In the Heights (2021). We talk about the specifics of the show and the changes made in the new film, especially highlighting the songs "Somewhere", "I Feel Pretty" and "Cool". We talk about the casting, including Bernardo played by David Alverez, Chino played by Josh Andrés Rivera, Riff played by Mike Faist, Rachel Zegler and Ansel Elgort playing Maria and Tony, respectively, and Valentina played by Rita Moreno. Our collective rating adds up to: 4 thumbs up We also mention Nightmare Alley (2021), The Green Knight (2021), Scream (2022), and The Eyes of Tammy Faye (2021).

Photo by Autumn De Wilde Busy Philipps, New York Times Best-Selling author, actor, activist, and mother, is our guest today on the Hoffman Podcast. Listen in as Busy speaks with Drew about her time at the Process. Busy tells us that through the Process she found her way out of awareness hell, something we learn about at the Process. (Listen in to learn about awareness hell.) She also gained Process tools and practices she now uses each day. Busy now experiences a beautiful space where peace and freedom exist. Passionate and articulate, Busy also shares about her activism around reproductive justice. We are grateful for this conversation. MORE ABOUT BUSY PHILIPPS Busy currently stars in the comedy series GIRLS5EVA, produced by Tina Fey, now streaming on Peacock. The series centers on a one-hit-wonder girl group from the '90s who try for another chance at pop stardom. In 2020, Philipps launched her podcast Busy Philipps Is Doing Her Best. The show features conversations between Philipps and her creative partner, Caissie St. Onge, and their guests, who reflect on times in their lives when a setback led to better opportunities. From 2018 to 2019, Philipps was the host of the late-night talk show BUSY TONIGHT. Philipps served as executive producer on the show, alongside Tina Fey. In 2018, Philipps released a collection of humorous autobiographical essays in her book THIS WILL ONLY HURT A LITTLE that was immediately a New York Times Best Seller the first week. The book offers unfiltered and candid stories and was published by Simon and Schuster's Touchstone division. Philipps has also used her voice as an advocate and activist. In 2019, she joined the Advisory Board of SeeHer, testified before Congress on reproductive rights after publicly discussing her own abortion, and launched the #youknowme campaign on social media. On the big screen, Philipps was in the STX romantic comedy, I FEEL PRETTY, opposite Amy Schumer and Michelle Williams. She also appeared in Joel Edgerton's thriller THE GIFT, alongside Jason Bateman and Rebecca Hall. On television, Philipps was seen in HBO's VICE PRINCIPALS, an 18-episode comedy from the creators Danny McBride and Jody Hill. She also starred opposite Courteney Cox on the popular TBS comedy COUGAR TOWN where she played ‘Laurie Keller.' AS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Bashing: Bashing is a form of cathartic release. It's a powerful and pivotal experience in the Process week. This kind of release supports us in acknowledging, expressing, and transforming strong emotions which may have previously been denied. Expressing emotions like anger or disappointment in this way, we release them from the body. We use the body and our voice to express what we no longer want to hold within us. The more deeply we move into expression, the more space we clear. This creates room to experience forgiveness and compassion. Release work also allows us to feel calm and be able to deal with situations in a manner. It can stop us from taking our ‘stuff' out on others, too! In so doing, we claim our power and freedom.

The “Crazy, Rich, Asians” movie releases a trailer. Amy Schumer's “I Feel Pretty” finished third at the box office. If you share that you care about the environment, you'll be seen as more attractive.
At first blush “I Feel Pretty” has a promising premise. It's about a sad duckling who's far from ugly, just pleasantly plump and plagued by self-doubt. Suddenly, magically, she believes that she's drop-dead gorgeous, and her delusion releases her joyous, lovable self. At second blush, after seeing the film, it's a botched premise. At third blush, after thinking about the film, it never had a chance of being much good in the hands of filmmakers whose take on their subject is sitcom-deep. The duckling, Renee Bennett, is played by Amy Schumer. She knows how to sell a comic notion, and she commits to selling this one, come what may. Renee's only wish is to be beautiful. She works for a global cosmetics company modeled on Revlon or L'Oreal, but she does so from the company's online office, a squalid warren in a Chinatown basement. (Where her only co-worker, a guy, is a total dimwit, and a slob.) This establishes two things—the heroine's obsession with physical appearance, and the movie's devotion to selling plot points, however absurd they may be. And however arbitrary. Renee's imagined transformation follows her watching TV and happening onto a key scene of “Big”—the one in which the little kid tells a carnival machine, “I wish I were big.” This is a praiseworthy example of truth in borrowing. But it's also a reminder to be careful what you wish for; some instant transformations have wondrous consequences, while some don't. This one doesn't, notwithstanding Amy Schumer's desperate efforts, and despite our wishing the movie well for its message that beauty comes from within. After the kid in “Big” wakes up the next morning and is big enough to be played by Tom Hanks, our delight extends beyond the physical change to the sweetly naïve 13-year- old point of view that the ostensibly mature hero brings to the adult world around him. When Renee transmogrifies miraculously the day after she sees the scene from “Big,” it's all in her head, so the rest of the movie depends completely on her behavior, which is comically delusional if you buy it, and scarily demented if you don't. All the beautiful people in her company buy it, even when Renee talks febrile nonsense about being a supermodel, and no one asks any questions. The men around her buy it. They tell her she's dazzling and perfect. But the compliments are unearned, because she keeps coming on like a runaway narcissist, the kind of woman any sensible man would flee in a New York nanosecond. Renee eventually reverts to her original self, as in “Big.” She's duly cured of her paralyzing insecurity, and gets to deliver an earnest exhortation about the need for girls and women alike to believe in themselves. But you can't believe in “I Feel Pretty.” It's a put-up job about a self- enchanted Cinderella. I'm Joe Morgenstern. I'll be back next week with a review of “The Avengers.”
