“I am gonna pull out Greg Mottola's Daytrippers. Yeah, well, no, not this version. Nice. Oh, let me see that. Oh my God, that would be a good one., that is sharp.”
“I have Black Girl directed by Ousmane Sembène, which I've—oh yeah, I've always wanted to see it. I've never seen it.”
“Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. This is not a popular choice here, and I have to say I didn't choose it initially partly because I've seen it so many times and partly because I thought everybody must pick this movie. There's—this movie has everything. It has fantastic score. The Carrie Nations are really one of the great forgotten bands of all time. John Lazar... Z-Man... It's written by Roger Ebert. It's just an amazing—Charles Napier is in it. It's the greatest.”
“I'll take the other one. Cleaning out the closet. And it's got some extra—this is I Wanna Hold Your Hand, which is awesome.”
“This is Todd Haynes's Velvet Underground movie. Amazing movie, and I can't wait to see all this extra stuff he's got. There's never enough Jonathan Richman interviews in the world, so.”
“Tokyo Story. The Most Beautiful movie ever made. Keeping with my love of Godzilla movies, Japanese movies about family, always my favorite. Son of Godzilla also. I'm very much looking forward to watching that one again.”
“I've Got The Girl Can't Help It here and this Blu-ray also comes with a bonus commentary by WFMU's Gaylord Fields and Dave the Spaz and both hilarious erudite commentators I can't wait to hear what they have to say about this great movie...”
“I'm sure I've seen this. Oh yeah, yeah, you've seen it. I don't remember. Ray Milland, Dan Duryea. The cake—the code is in the cake. And he—well, don't give it all away. I mean, you know, I want to be surprised again.”
“Carnival of Souls, though, that absolutely. I saw this movie at a film Festival in Boston in 1989 with Michael Cudahy, and director Herc Harvey introduced the movie and then stuck around afterwards and answered questions about it. And I think that was like kind of the unearthing of the film. Like it had just resurfaced and brought it back to the world. And it's a creepy-ass movie.”
“I'm pulling out Monterey Pop. Oh, excellent choice. Monterey Pop. Oh, that has that whole Tiny Tim backstage jam that I have not seen.”
