Smart people working hard. 531 00:25:17,100 --> 00:25:20,228 - Yeah, I think we all want that. - But like a really good one. 532 00:25:21,062 --> 00:25:23,398 'Cause when you make movies like this, but good, 533 00:25:23,857 --> 00:25:25,066 there's nothing better. 534 00:25:25,859 --> 00:25:27,694 Plus, decent gig. Baby needs shoes. 535 00:25:29,112 --> 00:25:30,113 Are we good? 536 00:25:31,531 --> 00:25:34,909 Dan, as your producer, we are great. We are in great shape. 537 00:25:35,952 --> 00:25:37,328 - Okay, good. - As your friend, 538 00:25:37,954 --> 00:25:39,289 Rome is burning. 539 00:25:39,873 --> 00:25:42,249 Walls are tumbling down and careers are being destroyed. 540 00:25:42,250 --> 00:25:44,793 Daniel, if you care too much about this job, it will kill you. 541 00:25:44,794 --> 00:25:46,087 We are not at war... 542 00:25:46,713 --> 00:25:48,048 but we're at war. 543 00:25:52,886 --> 00:25:53,887 Fucking with you. 544 00:25:54,429 --> 00:25:56,222 Yeah. Everything's great. 545 00:25:57,223 --> 00:25:59,017 Nothing to worry about. Night, Dan. 546 00:26:00,393 --> 00:26:03,396 Mollusk Man traveling. Can someone de-rig his diaper? Over. 547 00:26:06,358 --> 00:26:08,151 Well, that's a wrappy on the nappy. 548 00:26:08,735 --> 00:26:11,112 "I am big. It's the nappies that got small." 549 00:26:12,906 --> 00:26:14,949 Actually, I've got quite a long car journey home. 550 00:26:15,617 --> 00:26:16,785 I'll just leave it on. 551 00:26:25,794 --> 00:26:27,629 What's it like working with Adam? 552 00:26:28,338 --> 00:26:29,506 Adam? 553 00:26:30,548 --> 00:26:35,220 Adam, he's instinctual, like a bear or a hog. 554 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,473 And I say this with, you know, respect. It's like working with a chimpanzee, 555 00:26:39,474 --> 00:26:42,893 which I've done twice actually, once with tragic consequences. 556 00:26:42,894 --> 00:26:47,022 Awful story. Bong-Bong was his name. They caught him one day stealing donuts 557 00:26:47,023 --> 00:26:49,316 from the craft services, which one must never do. 558 00:26:49,317 --> 00:26:51,444 And so his owner, in an attempt to chide him, 559 00:26:51,778 --> 00:26:54,072 ended up beating him to death with an axe handle. 560 00:26:54,489 --> 00:26:56,449 Terrible, terrible, and very messy. 561 00:26:56,950 --> 00:26:59,493 Obviously, there was no chance of the chimp doing any press or publicity 562 00:26:59,494 --> 00:27:02,122 to promote the movie after that. How could he? He was dead. 563 00:27:02,455 --> 00:27:05,375 So in the end, they brought in a second chimp to do Carson. 564 00:27:05,959 --> 00:27:08,420 Rum-Tum, I think it was. 565 00:27:08,712 --> 00:27:11,756 Anyway, the whole press campaign was a bit of a washout after that. 566 00:27:12,173 --> 00:27:15,426 I often think that's why the movie never found an audience. 567 00:27:15,427 --> 00:27:17,595 Screenplay was terrific. 568 00:27:17,971 --> 00:27:19,806 "Do You Take This Chimp?," it was called. 569 00:27:20,515 --> 00:27:23,435 David Mamet did an uncredited polish. 570 00:27:24,436 --> 00:27:25,687 Bong-Bong. 571 00:27:27,522 --> 00:27:31,359 I haven't thought about poor little bugger for 30 years. 572 00:27:34,988 --> 00:27:36,865 Or David Mamet, for that matter.
