Ep. 9 - The Outside Man (1973)

[00:00:00] It's Showtime Folks! It's some bad hat hairings. I was the way to the car when you got it out. You know right from room? You're just no kidding. But wait, oh, some some good shit. I don't know. I didn't know. You're gonna need a bigger watch.

[00:00:24] Hello and welcome to Episode 9 of The Complete Works Season 4, a deep dive in any career and films of actor Roy Scheider. My name is Mike Smith and join me on this journey across the Scheiderverse is my friend, co-host, and fellow Roy Boy. My crusho.

[00:00:39] Hi, dude, do you like? I'm doing just great. So excited for today's episode actually. I think this is a fun little discovery we're gonna talk about. Yeah, you know, this entire season I've been like, I've been waiting for a movie to hit in the same way

[00:00:53] that special delivery hit in the Jeff Goldblum season. I don't know why specifically that movie, but that's some of you were both really taken with that we had never heard of before the podcast right? Yeah, never heard of it.

[00:01:03] And I don't remember the exact year of special delivery, but I feel like it's this era of cinema history of. Yeah, it's definitely over. I think special delivery is like 75, 76. It's around this time. Yeah, it's around now.

[00:01:16] And I feel like we're just in that wheelhouse or like man. If we could just find a movie like that, we'd never heard of that hits, oh baby. Exactly. And we were like, still I know that's gonna be the one. Nope, didn't happen. French conspiracies.

[00:01:28] That's gonna be the one. And nope, it didn't quite happen. Today's movie, I think hits that at least for me. So we'll get into that in just a little bit. But last week we talked about how Roy Scheider posed his French connection Oscar nomination

[00:01:40] left the US to go to France where he made two movies back to back with actor Jean Louis, Trintinia. Turns out that was actually only half true because while today's movie is another French Italian production, filming actually took place in Los Angeles. But we didn't know last week.

[00:01:56] Yeah, go to France to meet him to come back to LA and film the second movie. Exactly. And unlike the French conspiracy, this movie employed several American actors and the dialogue is mostly in English, meaning we do get to hear Roy Scheider's actual voice in this movie.

[00:02:11] Even though it might be dubbed, I feel like there's just a lip sync thing going on for some of it, but it's in mellice. It's definitely Roy Scheider's voice in this one. So we can take comfort in that. This film's director Jacques D'Array was well known

[00:02:23] in France for making several crime and thriller films. Today probably best known for his 1969 psychological thriller L'Apacine, which we actually played at the Roxy a little while back and I missed it damn it but it looked really good. It looked really good. L'Oundolaine or whatever. I'll land along.

[00:02:38] I'll land along. There we go. Yeah, yeah, he's in that movie. He's actually in a few Jacques D'Array movies I believe. But yeah, L'Apacine, I remember seeing the trailer for at the Roxy me like, oh man that looks so good.

[00:02:49] I got to make the time and I didn't make the time. I wasn't able to imagine seeing it. But I do want to see that eventually because it looks really good and based on the strength of this movie seems like it will be a great time.

[00:02:59] This was Jacques D'Array's first time making a film in America and in fact it was not the movie that he and his crew were originally going to make. Really? Come on. L'Oundolaine, how do you do it? Pull the plug and change the change plan?

[00:03:13] That's exactly what happened, actually. So the French crew came to Los Angeles with the intent on making something entirely different. But that project fell through very suddenly. Fine answer, I'll have my pull-out whatever it was. So instead of packing their bags and heading home

[00:03:27] they decided to make up a new movie on the spot and this film was written in 12 days and it filmed quickly too because they had to do it while the crews work visas were still valid. They were going to expire. They're racing the clock with this one.

[00:03:40] And since Rayshyter is in it, it's time to talk about the outside man. He was the Frenchman. They brought him 3,000 miles to make their... He went to the funeral. Walked away from the murder of the century to the Grand, but our rest of his life.

[00:04:05] What do you want for me? I have to get out. Back to France. The passport? Run from the mental height. You know where we're working for the same man. Run through the jungle of concrete. Don't fight the odds, you're one man alone.

[00:04:20] Run down the dark alleys that lead to freedom or to a gun pointed straight at your head. Where's Frenchy? Where's Frenchy? Where's he? Your man had drifted in a strange land. But Hunter, who's become the Hunter? You were hired because you were the man without a face.

[00:04:49] Now you run because there's a price on your head. Where's the Frenchycat? Right now he's on his way back to Paris. The Frenchman is taking off. It's a long flight to Paris. He was after the Frenchman. You had to make your home free!

[00:05:04] I can't say fair and Paris. You and this creak murdered your husband? You'd better have proof. The outside man. They want to turn him inside out. So the outside man, features Roy Scheider as Lenny. A hitman who spends the film hunting down another hitman

[00:05:38] who is the film's main character, Lucy Ann Belon, played by Jean de Weitrinton. Which of course makes this a French conspiracy reunion. Wow! We knew that going in. What a surprise. Yeah, but from there we've got a ton of recognizable people, including Ann Margaret from Bye-bye Birdie,

[00:05:55] who'd also actually just recently been nominated for an Oscar for Crownland Knowledge. She plays Nancy Robeson, the one who gets involved with Lucy Ann. Angie Dickinson from Rio Bravo plays Jackie Corvax, the woman who hired Lucy Ann to kill her husband,

[00:06:07] who then hires Roy Scheider to kill Lucy Ann. Georgia Engel from the Maritaler Morse show, plays Mrs. Barnes, who's apartment Lucy Ann hides out in for a little while. Plus, an 11-year-old Jackie Earl Haley, in his film debut. I was a little bit... I was a little bit...

[00:06:23] Why did that kid look so familiar? That's wild. Yeah, it was Roy Scheider. That's the... That's the thing. Jackie Earl Haley was the little kid in this movie, which is so wild. Felizorlandi, also from films like Bullet and the Driver,

[00:06:37] plays Anderson, Michelle Constantine, who appeared in a bunch of Charles Bronson movies. He plays Antoine, umberto or Sini from the Dan to plays Alex, ten to course, yeah, from the Lady from Shanghai and the killing plays Victor, who's death kick starts the whole movie.

[00:06:51] John Hillerman, who was Higgins on Magnum PI, plays the department store manager, playboy playmate Connie Creskey plays Rosie, a sex worker who approaches Lucy Ann, Alex Rocco, best known as Mo Green from the Godfather, plays Miller and finally, Tallya Scheider, Adrian herself,

[00:07:07] appears as Makeup Girl, right before Victor's funeral. Wild. That's a stat... This is a wild cast movie. It really does. For a movie that was put together in two weeks. Yeah, well, all these guys were just around. Yes, absolutely.

[00:07:21] And this is the same year the Godfather came out and it has Mo Green and Tallya Scheider, who was also in the Godfather. Yeah. The movie was written by Jacques Durey, a Jean-Flob Carrier, who also wrote La Pasine, the unbearable lightness of being and Jonathan Glazer's birth.

[00:07:34] And Ian McLellan Hunter, who was best known as the credits screenwriter of 1953's of Roman Holiday, which was actually written by Dalton Trumbo, who was blacklisted at the time. Fascinating, so there was that. It was directed by Jacques Durey one year after his previous film,

[00:07:50] a few hours of sunlight and two years before his next film, Borcellino in Company, which starred a lame Dalton. A sequel to his hit film, Borcellino. Ah. Okay. Back then, if you're going to make a sequel, you could just add and company. Yeah, yeah.

[00:08:04] It's not just Borcellino, it's Borcellino when it's Buds. And like the French conspiracy, though it was made in 1972, it did not hit the US until 1973. Also of notes, the film had two versions, a PG version and an x-rated version, which was ten minutes longer

[00:08:20] and mostly for the European release of the movie. I'm pretty sure the version we watched, which is available on canopy right now, was the x-rated version. If it wasn't, it's an awful lot of full-frontal nudity for the PG release. But like there was no other options back then.

[00:08:34] So I might beat the PG version. Like I don't know. I mean, the R-ring did exist. That's true. The R-ring did exist. I would imagine. Yeah, I'd better do that. There were definitely like boobs which show up in PG-rated movies all the time. That would happen.

[00:08:48] This movie is a lot more than just boof. Yes, true. The outside man was released in the US in January 1973. And we already covered the top ten films of that year in our last episode. But I can tell you the number one

[00:09:00] in film at the box office for January, February, and some of March. And if you weather we scattered throughout the year was the Poseidon Adventure, which came out in December of 1972, I think. Hell yeah. Yeah. It earned his book nine for season five.

[00:09:13] I mean, earned his book nine season or a Leslie Nielsen season. True. Would actually that be a weird season of the podcast. Because lesson Nielsen's in like 200 movies, right? Yeah. And like 150 of them are silly parody movies that are like all, you know,

[00:09:29] he was an airplane, he was naked gun and then a bunch of crap. Yeah. Basically what Leslie Nielsen's career was post-1980. Before that, he's got a lot of really serious, like dramatic roles. Yeah. Be very interesting to watch that, that hard cut off.

[00:09:42] And then it just be nothing but the same for 100 episodes in a row. Yeah. And then it's just us being like, okay, scary movie three, scary movie four. American, Carol. Is he an American, Carol? I don't know. He might have died right before that happened. I'm not sure.

[00:09:56] But yeah, big Leslie Nielsen fan right here. That actually would be very fun. But anyway, the IMTV that snaps this four of the outside man reads after fulfilling a contract killing and Los Angeles. A French hitman becomes the target of a hit himself.

[00:10:08] And tries to flee back to Paris. So Mike D. Going into the outside man, what were you expecting from this movie? And what did you get coming out of it? What are your overall thoughts? Yeah, I never heard of this movie, so it wasn't really sure.

[00:10:21] But I was, you know, I'm being really familiar with these sort of, this era of like Euro thriller, you know, we talked about it a little bit in last episode, you know, like those Italian movies and stuff that I was talking about. So I was excited for something

[00:10:36] along those lines, but I wasn't 100% sure what it might be. I think ultimately the outside man is really solid. It's got twisty-turning stuff, but it's not incomprehensible the same way the French conspiracy was. And the performances are great. It's got it's also very funny at times.

[00:10:53] I think there's like a couple recurring bits that are hilarious, particularly that one, the blonde lady, he like, it depths and then how she just keeps coming back. Very fun. So that's exciting. And yeah, and the action stuff is funny, is exciting but also very funny.

[00:11:10] Your letter box review, is casting them as like Wiley Coyote in the Roadrunner is very accurate because that is exactly the energy, which is very interesting in this kind of crime-actual movie. It's got a funky score, like a really aggressive funky score. It's a really aggressive score.

[00:11:26] That's true. Needle shops at the weirdest moment. I just like the streaming organ coming in at a nowhere. It's like streaming. Yeah, it's awesome but also like I don't know about that. It's the first time jump scared me, won't lie. Yeah. Because it's a silent,

[00:11:42] open-crite sequence until suddenly it's a hard, fun score. Yeah. And the opening credits are so like non-descript. It's the camera just panning across Los Angeles for a really long time. I thought the audio was broken because it goes for so long with nothing.

[00:11:59] It's just silence and the title is coming on screen. Yeah. And suddenly, Bid-did-did! Like it's just, yeah. It didn't tense score when it kicks in. It's so funny. So that's exciting and fun and silly. And then also this movie,

[00:12:16] really I think features the thing we've been talking about a lot in these first, you know, however many episodes. What was the seven? The episode nine. This is nine, my God. Time flies. And these first nine episodes of cinema as a time capsule.

[00:12:30] And I feel like this movie really in particular captures what L.A. looked like in 1972, slash 73 or whatever when they were filming it. So that aspect of it is very fun because there's a lot of, I mean, I guess it makes sense when you talk about,

[00:12:45] oh, they had two weeks to write this movie and we're just gonna figure it out and all this stuff and they're kind of making it on the fly. Now that it has this like shaggy quality, but there's a lot of, we're just on a sidewalk.

[00:12:55] You know, we're on a pier. There's like not a lot of like, I mean, the locations are very interesting because, you know, it's cool to see that time capsule. But there is not like a lot of like grand staging and stuff going on.

[00:13:05] If it's a lot of just guys on the street we're running through alleyways and we're driving on these B-trodes and stuff. So that part of it is very fun. You really get, I think, a pretty, a pretty indefinite look at what certain parts of Los Angeles looked like

[00:13:17] at the same period. And also because the character is lost a lot. He's not, you know, he's from Paris. He doesn't know where he's got like he's, you know, he's a couple of moments where he pulls over and is reading a map.

[00:13:27] So you get to see those kind of things. So yeah, I think outside man is pretty fun. I don't know if I liked as much as you, but maybe I would rewatch again and I would have more fun too because I wouldn't, I would rewatch this movie.

[00:13:39] You know? Yeah, definitely. This was probably my favorite discovery of these season so far. Which, you know, I've liked a few movies that we've watched for the podcast for the season. But I mean, the ones that I really liked are ones that I had already seen in French

[00:13:51] and action, Clutes, you know, that kind of stuff. Like I liked Puzzle of a Downfall child. I liked Curse of the Living Corps. I was fun to watch, but this really feels like one that I like lashed onto is like man, this rules, this is awesome.

[00:14:02] Yeah, no, I think it's interesting to kind of compare it to French conspiracy, which, you know, it's a different director different filmmaker, different team making the movie. You only realize consistencies that it has both Roy Scheider and Jean-Louis-Tonigam. But French conspiracy is very much, you know,

[00:14:16] a political thriller, it's like minded in that way and it's, you know, a very complex movie. There's a lot of moving parts to it and the outside man is content to be like more of a Charles Brunson action picture of the 70s, right?

[00:14:30] And it does that sort of thing but with that sort of outsider perspective on it which is what I love so much about one of my favorite movies, the 70s, Walter Hills, The Driver. And I've seen The Driver a couple of times now

[00:14:42] I love that movie and that's a movie that is known for kind of taking a, you know, European S.C.Tuch to this crime genre. Right. And the movie that is actually made by Europeans making this crime through. And there results are really, really strong.

[00:14:57] I think it's a really fun movie. The action is really exciting and the chase scenes are always really intense. And yeah, it's a very simple plot. It's sort of complex and that doesn't really tell you what's going on for a long time.

[00:15:09] But like when I'm kind of just pick up like, well, he's a hitman this guy's after him now. What's going on? And then you kind of pick up the pieces as the movie goes along. Yeah, I think Roy Scheider's really fun,

[00:15:19] I think Jean-Letry Tignan's a great center for the movie. I mean, the entire supporting cast is really great. I want to sing loud and Margaret, who I think is so good in this movie.

[00:15:27] Like it was one of those things where I couldn't take my eyes off her shoes. So, so, so good and so compelling. And I feel like one thing that I've mentioned, I feel like I keep referencing two specific things throughout this entire season of the podcast.

[00:15:38] One of which is one spent time in Hollywood. Yeah, and the other thing is Mad Men. And I feel like I've mentioned both of those things quite a few times over the course of these nine episodes. Which sort of makes sense.

[00:15:51] They're both like modern media that attempt to capture this specific era of film and filmmaking and all that stuff. But I was reminded of an episode of Mad Men. Go on, while watching this movie because Anne Margaret was in it.

[00:16:06] There's an episode of Mad Men where they are working on a TV ad that is a direct parody of the opening scene of Bye Bye Birdie, which you've never seen. It's Anne Margaret singing the song Bye Bye Birdie. Like directly to the camera.

[00:16:19] And we're going to say that it's a direct parody of the scene. It's like a one-to-one recreation of it. And they're all very excited about it throughout the episode. And then they finally film it.

[00:16:28] They get an actress to play at the park and they film it and everything. And they show it's the client and the client doesn't like it. And everybody's watching it and it's all in agreement like, yeah, something's missing here. Like, it's something is off.

[00:16:40] And they were so confused. And then I think one guy, I think it's down or Roger, whoever points the screen and says she's not Anne Margaret. And then he was like, oh yeah, that's the problem. That's the problem. That's what's missing.

[00:16:52] And I always remind that of that watching this because she's so good in this movie. She's really great. And yeah, I really love seeing her performance in this. But way the plot kind of circles around and like,

[00:17:01] there's so many layers to it but it's all very like clean and simple. Uh, is really really fun. So yeah, had a blast with the outside man. That was awesome. Nice. Did you get jump scared by the score? Like, I did of course. Yeah.

[00:17:12] Because it just kicks in so suddenly and it is this like screeching thing. What's happening. But yeah, but I did come to come around on the score. I think by the end of the movie. Me too. Yeah, it's just so fun.

[00:17:24] It's it's a, I think it's that outside perspective. You know, he's a fishhead of water for sure. Like, you know, he keeps, he keeps not, I forgot. I can't think of both the top of my head. Maybe when that sex worker approaches him and like,

[00:17:36] That's one example where she's like, Oh, well, if you got the bread, I'll do and he's like, What are you? What are you talking about? Like, he keeps not understanding like, Uh, not you for business but I, you know, whatever.

[00:17:45] A slang American slang and people can't understand his accent and like that's a part of it. And um, that's just a really interesting mode to set a, You know, like, hit man thriller movie in. Yes. Right. He's lost all the time.

[00:17:59] Like I was talking about, uh, so but on top of that, he is like a best of the best hitman. You get the feeling kind of thing, right? He like loads his gun with only a single bullet because that's all

[00:18:07] the thing, uh, which is mlash, shifts and, uh, Yeah. And then fun action stuff happens. Yeah. And somebody small touches of him like trying to understand American culture too. Yeah. It's just very fun. There's a great, you know, he, uh,

[00:18:20] Kittenabs, the woman in forces her to, you know, let him into her apartment to hide out essentially. And that's where you meet Jack Euril Hailey as a young 11 year old. Yeah. Um, and yeah. He's like, you know, sort of intruding on their thing.

[00:18:31] He's going to have dinner with them. He's sitting down and watching Star Trek with them. Yeah. And he's just so like befuddled by the entire thing. He's just watching it like with like a curiosity, you know? Like, like, oh, this is what American culture is. Star Trek.

[00:18:44] Yeah. He's watching them watch Star Trek. Uh, and the way that two of them were both like totally in grace. Like, in grace. Like their mouths are open. They're like just hooked. Yeah. Uh, which is so funny.

[00:18:54] Which is so funny for her because she's like actively being kidnapped by this guy. Yeah. Right. Exactly. Uh, she might be like my favorite character at the movie. She's just so funny. Uh, yeah. I was so delighted when she came back because like, once he leaves the apartment,

[00:19:09] it's like, oh, well, okay, they're out of the movie, right? Like they've got to be out. But she comes back with two or three times, like, I identify dead bodies. Yeah. And by the last time, she's like, yeah, it's okay. I'm used to it. Do identify the body.

[00:19:21] Uh, it's so funny. And then he's, she's trying to explain that like, no, this isn't the French guy. This is the other guy and the cops like, wait. He guys were in your apartment. Like, and like it turns into a comedy bit. Uh, yes. Uh, so fun.

[00:19:36] And she's like so out of it when Roy Shiders shows her apartment, like a day later. She doesn't see that surprised. She doesn't see that. Yeah. This is just... I had a gun so I answered his questions. Like, yeah. You're really not blessed by the whole thing.

[00:19:47] She thinks it's held up police about this guy. Yeah. It's great. Uh, yeah. And what he does lead the apartment. There's a great comedy bit too where, you know, Roy Shiders has been chasing him. There's a great, like, shoot out in the parking garage and all that stuff.

[00:20:01] And then she being chased by Roy Shiders, the Jesus free gets in the car and shoots the Jesus free, which is great. Uh, but then he's leading the apartment and he opens the elevator. Roy Shiders in the elevator. Yeah. And then he gets in the elevator.

[00:20:13] But Roy Shader can't do anything because other people enter the elevator. And it's just such a fun, like, uncomfortable moment. It's great. Yeah. Good stuff, man. Yeah. And just in general, I think the movie, I don't think it's, is it two hours? I don't really, I think it.

[00:20:32] It's like an hour, 45. Yeah. Okay. So yeah. But I was going to say it flies pretty quickly. Like, you know, sometimes we talked about a little bit these kind of, like, you know, older

[00:20:41] action movies can have, like, moments of really great action but then sort of feel like they drag by, like, modern attention span. Right out. But this movie doesn't have that. I was, like, pretty engrossed in, in Belon's, like, whole journey.

[00:20:54] And then when he finally gets his fake passport, his new passport and he's going to leave. And he realizes something so he's, misses his flight and, like, all that stuff. And, and, yeah, he's like going rogue. I don't know. It's good. Good shit. Yeah. Absolutely.

[00:21:09] So Roy Shader is in the movie Mike. He plays Lenny. Yes. The hitman who was hunting down Lucien for most of the movie. And he is, like, I would say the secondary antagonist, I guess. He's kind of supposed to be the media danger. Yeah.

[00:21:21] The most immediate danger for sure. But somebody hired him, right? And then he does get taken out of the movie with, like, 20 minutes left to go. Like, yeah. He's not the ultimate bad guy. But he is the one who is probably the most dangerous for Lucien.

[00:21:34] I really love to be in this movie. I think he's so, so good. And it's such a, like, interesting, like, understated role. Yeah. He does not have that much dialogue. He has maybe, like, a couple of lines of dialogue. He's just, mostly, like, an imposing force that is,

[00:21:48] having to be dealt with every few minutes in the movie. Yeah. He's, like, an inept, heavy arbor dim from the country girl. Like, he's doing the same, like, the, like, almost no dialogue. Very, like, terminator street face, you know, kind of thing. But, like, sucks at it.

[00:22:05] I don't know, but, like, and, like, the movie kind of makes, like, even calls him out. It's, like, in the third actor, whatever, when, when, Belon chooses not to go to Paris because he's figured out that the same person that hired him to kill Victor Correx.

[00:22:17] Victor Correx is the one who kills in the beginning of the movie. At the beginning of the movie. He's the same person that hired Lenny to kill him. Like, he figured out they're working for the same person, right? Basically.

[00:22:25] And so he confront each other and we're going to go together, take them to take them down. And he's like, you missed me three times. That's too much mild for, like, my friend. Like, you know, it's like, you're, you failed at your contract.

[00:22:34] Like, you're going to die, um, basically. Uh, and then, of course, just eternity stuff happens. But yeah, I think, I think, I think, Rishrider is plays that really well. He plays that simultaneously evil character. Like, there's the one moment where he kills the guy that

[00:22:49] uh, gets the fake passport, right? For, for, for, for, Belon. He's like, he has a barren. And then we went to really tense, I think. And it really, like, he's just, he's there with the TV on, on mute.

[00:22:58] And he's, uh, asking him questions and he doesn't get the answer. He wants. So all of a sudden the volume slowly ticks up. So he can't hear anything. Turned the volume up. Yeah. Yeah. It's a cover of the gunshot.

[00:23:07] Uh, and then it just hardcuts to him sitting at like a, like, like a burger stand on the out of park bench eating a burger, right? Like, like he's so unfazed that he's stopping to get food on the way between his, his executions.

[00:23:17] So I got that little details like that. You're great. Um, and there's a couple of moments too when he's like in that big car chase with the, with the police, uh, when he's like stolen a cop car and he's like driving over the canals and all that.

[00:23:29] That's awesome. But he's like having fun. He's like laughing and smiling to himself as he's doing all these turns and losing the cops and stuff. So he's a really interesting character. And I think, uh, Shidder is really fun in that role.

[00:23:40] Where it's that mix between the kind of stuff we, you know, I've seen before, where he's the kind of straight-laced, business kind of guy, but also a little bit silly. Yeah, which, you know? So it's a fun mix. You don't get into hitmaning because, you know, you,

[00:23:54] you do have for the love of the game. You know, that's exactly. There's a line, a lineage from outside man to David Fincher's The Killer. Yeah, I think there is. Yeah, I think he's fantastic in this and he gets involved in a lot of,

[00:24:07] like, really cool action scenes. I mean, the movie, basically kicks off with once a Lucian kills Victor. Almost as soon as he leaves the compound, which by the way, it's that compound is like somebody's, it's like a well-known person. Oh, it's Albert Brockley's mansion. No way.

[00:24:24] Albert Brockley, yeah, the co-producer of all the James Bond movies. It's his mansion that they are in. Uh, in that scene. That's so funny. Uh, which, yeah, he lent out to them for this filming, uh, which is pretty fun.

[00:24:37] But, yeah, almost as soon as he leaves the compound, Roy Shidder is tailing him and they get into, like, like, a shootout in the parking garage and, you know, Belon escapes and Shidder's like, oh shit. And they, it's chasing him again.

[00:24:48] He goes in the apartment and then when he leaves the apartment, he's chasing him again. Yeah, I have the car chase and, yeah, Lucian picks up like a hitchhiker who's like a Jesus freak who's like, Oh, have you accepted Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior?

[00:24:59] Uh, and then Roy Shidder shoots him. Well, it's so interesting to the way that Lucian, like, it seems like he asked the bikers for directions like he, like, they'll protect him in, like, you know, by just being around him. Yeah.

[00:25:12] And then he picks up that hitchhiker thinking that, that uh, Lenny wouldn't kill him because there'll be so witness. Right. But he just kills the witness instead. Oh, I guess my accident. I think he kills the witness by accident. Yeah, it is a, yeah, it's a surprise. Yeah.

[00:25:25] But like he's, you know, prepared to do that. So that's like an interesting character moment and yeah, he keeps stealing things like that where he's like always trying to find people, civilians and other people to be around him.

[00:25:33] So that, you know, maybe they'll lend some protection to him, you know? Yeah, absolutely. Also, Ray Shireder broke his leg while making this movie. Really? Yeah, which I have to imagine is during one of the action scenes.

[00:25:44] And yeah, I couldn't really figure out where in the movie that happens. But I would guess it's probably that like peer foot chase, during the car chase sequence. Like, you know, I think there's a moment where he jumps down

[00:25:56] off the pier and like lands in the ground or whatever. I think so. Yeah. Actually, I think specifically, I think he, like, flaps down on the ground. Doesn't he like jumps off the pier and, like, his body kind of like,

[00:26:05] wow, like he does not land on his feet. I don't know. I didn't know that. But that pier was fascinating because I thought that was the Santa Monica Pier for a second. Like, yeah, I was like, am I about to learn discover that in the 1970s

[00:26:18] they just left the Santa Monica pier burned down? Like, but it's not. It turns out there is that it's a different pier somewhere else on the beach that I looked into it that they opened as like a secondary amusement park, right?

[00:26:31] Because the Santa Monica pier is also like an amusement park. Okay. To like a rival Disney, they were like, we're going to have to and it burned down and they just immediately abandoned me. I don't know how Larry is.

[00:26:42] Which makes it a great spot for a foot chase. Yeah. It looks awesome. Looks so cool. Yeah. And they left it there for like five years or whatever. So yeah, they filmed this foot chase there. Nice. Yeah. And that whole foot chase is so great.

[00:26:55] And yeah, it's him chasing after Lucien. He fires off a shadow too. And then the cops hear it. It's a their chasing after Roy Shidder now. It's a Roy Shidder steals a cop car and he gets into a car chase with those cops.

[00:27:07] And yeah, just like the cars jumping over the hill, you know, turning over and all that kind of stuff. Just, you know, that good 70s car chase action is what we're here for. Yeah. Yeah. It rules. Yeah. Just lots of running engines and screeching tires and then crashing

[00:27:26] real cars, which is insane. Yes. The battery runs out from the bottom of our device. And then back to the module. Finally, Roy Shimenter and Lucien like they come together and Lucinda like we should lift up. Now he's, like now he knows what's going on. Figure it out.

[00:27:42] You figured out that you know. The people who hired him are the same people that hired Roy Sh賽der and like they hired the Hitman to basically kill him's. That there'll be no witnesses to no ties back to the original crime. Right that's sort of the idea.

[00:27:57] You know, now next to the right shite or that I was too much and then it'll have to be and he even says that to Lucy and even says like you'll never make it back to Detroit because you're wrapping up this loose end.

[00:28:06] They'll wrap up your lease and kind of thing yeah, and that's why and then shite or shite or is like yeah, I'll hear you out kind of thing. He he lied as easily as he breathed, you know.

[00:28:17] Drives him back to the estate exactly yeah he gets in the car with the Lucian and then new seems like yeah we should team up we should you know take them down and shout

[00:28:25] He's like yeah, yeah sure sure. So they go to the estate shite or pulls out a gun that he's hidden somewhere and Yeah, then the hitman kills him shite or dies. Tried or dies which I mean I was like whoa first death, but I don't think that's right.

[00:28:37] I think he dies in the Chris living corpse and pretty sure. I'm pretty sure he does yeah, yeah, he like he drowns I think like he definitely does not survive the Chris living corpse. Yes, I'm not sure if it's like totally on screen, but we're gonna count it.

[00:28:49] So yeah, I believe this is the second Roy Shiter death on the podcast Which if you're just joining for this season that's a weird thing that we let's keep track of is how many times the actor dies on screen

[00:28:58] It's interesting. You know, I guess he's not the star yet or in this movie, but it's interesting when the you know main guy dies Yes, yeah absolutely which the you know this this one

[00:29:07] I think kind of leaves that a little bit ambiguous as to whether the main guy dies. I think so too. It's a real the power of fun. Cool safe hammer or whatever kind of moment because this because the organ all of a sudden comes screeching back in

[00:29:19] By the fucking impact. Yeah, yeah, it's wild But yeah, I thought that was a really interesting idea like Ermoven because he definitely seems dead

[00:29:27] Right if the kid walks up to the car and he's not moving yeah with the blood all over him and then he likes sits up and grabs the steering wheel

[00:29:34] But doesn't doesn't the car doesn't move yet like he still he's holding the steering wheel and then I think he just cuts to black and it's credit Or whatever freeze frames

[00:29:42] So I think it's ambiguous whether or not he's actually alive and like living or if he's just like sat back up or something I don't know yeah exactly. I mean according to no Wikipedia like if you look at the Wikipedia plot stops at the very end of it

[00:29:53] It says lushing gets away but dies of gunshot wounds, but I think if you watch the movie It's not it's not quite that black and white I think there's like you know it leaves it a little bit open as to whether he like actually survives or yes

[00:30:04] I think so too But yeah, but basically once Roy Shiter is out of the picture once Roy Shiter dies eventually Yeah, the woman for the me out of time more show comes over to identify his body because he's right Which is very fun

[00:30:17] But then yeah, he gets in contact with Antoine who is like his contact back in France and Antoine comes over to help him out And they go to Victor's funeral just the craziest shit I've ever seen why is Victor sitting up right in a chair with a cigar?

[00:30:31] Yeah So we had a corpse not outside of the casket out of not in the casket at a funeral, right? Like why is this the thing I guess that was his last wish. I guess that was in his

[00:30:44] Wheel or something because it's also revealed that he's like a mob boss of some kind right there So yeah, he's like a mafia so dude. So yeah, it's very sure and he's like up on it up on like a dais in a chair with a cigar

[00:30:56] Posed sitting up right and yeah, they're all just standing there about to have a wake with a corpse in a chair Very strange. Yeah, and so everybody arrives and you know

[00:31:07] Jackie his wife and Alex who are the two who have orchestrated this whole thing that they wanted to write a Lucien in the first place And then hired Roy Shiter and all that stuff they are there

[00:31:16] But also Lucien and Antoine and like their crew were there and the entire like the entire mob is there And so a big shootout erupts at the funeral except there's a great moment where Alex is

[00:31:27] He's like running and he goes to the back room in the funeral home and Antoine is there and he finds him and he's like Oh, no man. It's gonna be okay. I'll give you money. I'll give you money

[00:31:36] It's okay. It's all cool. I had to ones like okay. Yeah, I will hide you And Alex is like okay, which side? It's like oh go in there. He points into the casket. It's okay Man, I'll hide in the casket that he closes the casket just shoots

[00:31:48] Yeah, it ain't just unloaded the gun into the casket Red red is hell awesome love it and then Antoine does die in the you know in the whole thing Also, I was so dark when he died the way he dies is so weird. How does it?

[00:32:02] Antoine Dagan Lucien is gotten into a herse and is driving away right and Antoine is running alongside him Trying to jump into the moving hers and he gets shot by the cops

[00:32:10] So he's like hanging on the window and he's like just keep driving just keep driving as he's like as he's following away Yeah, and then he falls and grabs like the bumper as he's like as the car goes past him

[00:32:22] So he's just and then it cuts to a shot outside the car at grass level where you just are seeing Antoine's face drag along the grass while he's holding clinging on still with his last last breath. Yes until he finally lets go in the car drives away

[00:32:36] And he just becomes a little dot on the right back in the background It's like dark is hell man like what are you seeing this close over this dude for? It dies

[00:32:45] So it was a really cool shot. I've never seen something like that before. Yeah, no, that's awesome And then yeah, and then Angie Dickinson Jackie go back so she gets arrested Yes, this whole thing

[00:32:54] Which at this point there's like a subplot with the cops who are like sort of you know two sets behind everything that's happening It's so interesting because right the beat before that Yes, they're the bumbling idiot cops and they're having that comedy bit moment

[00:33:06] We're like just the guy from your apartment like you know like with the with the lady And so they seem like they're just kind of the you know idiot

[00:33:13] How's that cops that can't figure this out and then he goes into the like a state and like completely lays out the entire plot And like he's got it all figured out it turns out he's clumbo

[00:33:23] Yeah, it's absolutely a clumbo scene even to the point where he's like and we're getting to you miss covex Like you know It's why it was wild. It was so fascinating. Yeah, so they figured out everything that's happening

[00:33:35] And there's waiting for an excuse to like put it all together and this big shoot out is the is the excuse and they're able to get there And yeah, they're able to arrest Jackie covex and you see her going into the car and yeah

[00:33:46] That's that's pretty much it and Lushing gets away and he maybe dies. Maybe doesn't I was a little confused How Nancy got involved? She's like a friend of Antoine. Is that what it is? Yeah, well she has so she keeps

[00:33:58] Bemoting the fact that she like knows these people right like every time she's like what did I do to deserve? Whatever and she asks like little tell me does Antoine still bet every girl he meets or something

[00:34:08] So like she has some history yeah with them maybe back in France or something, but right now and But now she's like running this you know topless club or whatever and that's really it. Yeah

[00:34:18] She runs I think she just works there. I think she works there actually right. Yeah, which and then when we do meet Nancy She's like takes us into the topless bar and

[00:34:26] It's like a 10 minute sequence that's just there. Yeah, and the camera like really lingers and just like yeah everyone's fully naked Yeah, and so it's definitely it's got to be the x-ray to cut that we saw

[00:34:36] That's got me there's a lot of bush for PG movie. Yeah, exactly, but there There's this very funny moment I think When they like go to one of the girls who is you know fully naked and just like oh can you lead us out here?

[00:34:47] And she just leaves them now into the street like in a public street fully naked Yeah, there's there's a somebody looking for them and they're parked out front We got to go out the back exit can you help us out? Yeah, she's like oh, yeah sure

[00:34:58] It's just like fully naked out in the back alley way to the sidewalk Okay, bye see you later Nancy Oh great to great show tonight. You know they were right away. It's like what is going on?

[00:35:09] All right. How do you think this fits into the brace shattered rolls that we've seen so far I'm like oh my god, well, I think it is a little bit of a blend like I was saying earlier that uh

[00:35:17] You know it has sort of the moments of like the kind of wacky Ness or Harry Harry Wow man, how to Harry? I think is how we described his character loving yeah, you know stuff like that but also with You know the kind of like

[00:35:32] Straight-laced cold-hearted assassin kind of guy or whatever sort of like in a French connection He's a cop, but you know what I mean like that kind of thing that like that and I guess like also in

[00:35:41] Still led out to you like the cool and collected mob lawyer right like it's it's a little bit of a blend of those two things It's definitely more the like straight-laced guy, but it has I think a little moments of

[00:35:51] Zaininess just by the nature of him being like bad at assassinating At leastian Like always being like oh he got away again like this sort of the energy he has sometimes so Yeah, I mean I think in terms of the movies we talked about

[00:36:05] I think this is probably the closest in terms of like tone and genre to stiletto You know stiletto feels like dancing the next natural version of this but This is much better this slido

[00:36:16] This is the outcome you work slandist one. Yeah, exactly this is a much more entertaining filming in siletto You know similar like clout French connection French conspiracy Stuff that's like you know there's a lot of investigation going on. There's a lot of trying to figure out what's happening

[00:36:29] And I think this is Less complicated than something like French conspiracy or clout Probably that this is like the least complicated mystery whatever that we've had to deal with so far But I think on par with something like French connection right?

[00:36:41] Yeah, yeah, I think so it's a interestingly like low stakes movie for being about a mob conspiracy hitman thing You know like like ultimately it just boils down to these two guys. Yeah, let me let me let me let me let me in

[00:36:54] Lisa and right are there any other scenes or anything like that might be you wanted to give a shout out to moments to stand out to you In the outside man. I think just him Lucien and Nancy's whole

[00:37:05] Shik we're like they definitely seem to have some sort of history in the pet together or Or at least familiarity she keeps like joking about it like there's the forget where he's like just sleeping on her couch and so like they're out

[00:37:16] They're out to get coffee or something like that like a diner after they do something and she's like well We're practically living together and out like Like you know, they're just like this sort of avi like we're sort of a couple but not really kind of things

[00:37:29] So just in general their whole arc and relationship and then You know she puts her life on the line to help him a couple times and save stuff like that and the guy that makes the fake pass or gets the fake passport is very fun

[00:37:40] As this sort of just like beach hippie dude. That's like yeah, they don't get you passport Like yeah, it's cool Yes, all that was great and yeah that we mentioned already but the scene where that guy dies

[00:37:52] By Rochetta is very very intense and scary. Yeah, very very good We kind of like blew past this but the Jesus freak Oh yeah, that was very very funny

[00:38:01] Where he picks up this guy as like a hitchhiker and attempt to like you know protect himself from Rochetta who was chasing him down another car and You know the guy just gets in the car and's like oh, so are you familiar with Jesus?

[00:38:13] He's clearly like you know I think I got enough Jesus in my life whatever He's like oh you can never have Jesus enough Jesus in your life man And then Rochetta like pulls up next to them and he pulls the gun out of his like you know

[00:38:25] Ames the gun through the window and you hear the guy say Jesus and then the shoot them It's blown away You know I used to drugs like how he starts the

[00:38:35] Everybody and yeah, this movie has like a weird weird hangout vibe to it also like we take the time to watch Start track with those two characters like we take the time to like go get burgers with Rochetta

[00:38:45] After his hip so yeah, it's it's it's a it's an interesting mix that I'm glad you know that I think this is like other

[00:38:50] Maybe curse the living corpse. I think this is the first time that I'm like I'm glad Rochetta is in this because I never would have heard of this On any other fact way, you know that is the thing yeah

[00:39:00] I think you know this feels like a movie that I you know I'm not really that familiar with I know it has like a keynote Lord or blue ray and pretty sure some kind of restoration

[00:39:07] When you watch it on canopy it has like you know keynote Lord for studio classics like that Yeah, go pops up So it has been restored like people are familiar with this movie

[00:39:16] But it was not one of those on my radar at all and so I'm really glad that we got to watch it because it rules It's great. This is probably genuinely like my second favorite movie that we've watched so far

[00:39:25] Behind-the-scenes you're French and it's gonna save yeah, yeah, yeah, French French and action I was kind of debating between this include as number two But I think includes great and I think maybe like if Clute was just the first like hour

[00:39:37] Clute might top it but I think this feels more like consistent overall than Clute is like so Yeah, also a great movie. People should watch Clute too that movie's cool But yeah the outside man a fun discovery I was not expecting this

[00:39:50] Especially after French conspiracy was like a little bit of a let down, you know yeah, I think so yeah you hear you know second sort of a French Conspiracy three-layer type thing in a row

[00:40:01] I don't know the last one wasn't so great and I was mostly I think because I just are like unfamiliar I already with like the quote unquote true story in French conspiracy

[00:40:11] And like the the particularities of French politics in 1972 or whatever was going on and then this is just down in dirty Hitman movie. Yeah, that's a more easily accessible movie. I think that yeah French conspiracy for sure

[00:40:25] Any other scenes micrachimovant? A letterbox of use no, I think there there's a moment in this movie that I've saw on Twitter a whole bunch in the past Really where it's like a like wink wink not really

[00:40:37] I don't know if it's the side by side guys that do those like the pinland empire and those guys But there's a moment where we're we're Reuchyter

[00:40:45] Get out of a car when he stands up. There's a big seven up sign a billboard in the background and somebody be like oh For shadowing the seven ups which is a movie he'll make it a couple movies

[00:40:54] That's the next episode is it the next episode look at that so when that happened in this movie I was like whoa, that's what that's from like you know it's one of those weird like You do the Leo point thing because I recognize the screenshot

[00:41:06] So that was fun, but it's not really a real thing at all. It's not that it's a very real thing like Yeah, no seven ups is next week in the podcast Actually I look at ahead a little bit. I thought we had more time John's not fair

[00:41:22] Exactly, John's it didn't like three weeks like we're all the jaws which is very exciting Like I was gonna stop the podcast It's kind of the main reason we're doing this right? Yeah No, the main reason we're doing it is to make discoveries like the outside man

[00:41:37] Correct, glad we did all right some letterbox reviews for this film Mike got a four star review here from Shrotsi Which reads Somebody should write a book about US set movies by European directors doing their own outsider takes an American culture with

[00:41:52] Shocked Emmys model shop which make for a great Frenchman and L.I. Double feature with this one Michelangelo and Antonio and Tonyoni's is a brisky point or if it inventors Paris Texas

[00:42:02] As a few titles that readily spring to mind the real outside man this time is French director Shock D'Are who cast a bemused incredulous and always fascinated I on the city of angels and the

[00:42:12] American way of life in general. It's very much the opposite of a tourist view But rather it feels like the impressions of an alien a drift on a strange planet that looks remotely similar to his own but But follows quite different unfathomable rules

[00:42:25] Yeah, I do I do think it's really interesting that the movie Sort of avoids any landmarks or anything like I mean I guess the good of every hills They're on sunset, but they're on one of those I don't know what the actual street I can't remember

[00:42:38] Shrotsi strip whatever We're the most coasters where he's ghost. Yeah, we're these guests But yeah, like they don't like yeah, there's no Hollywood sign There's not like none of that like stuff that you might think would just be like even in the establishing shots in the opening credits

[00:42:49] It's like under construction downtown LA Like it's not or like freeways and stuff. It's not like landmarks So I don't know that's a really weird choice

[00:42:58] They're interesting choice by people not from there. Yeah, no absolutely and I think gives you a better idea of what the city is actually like Yeah, because that's where the people are actually that's where people actually live like they don't live by the landmarks You know, that's the

[00:43:10] Exactly I was talking about this with somebody yesterday how they have a you know I live in Missoula and their friend is moving to Missoula Which I've been telling you to do for years Mike? I don't know why this friends on it and you're not

[00:43:22] But they're friend is moving to Missoula And they're like yeah, you know I'm excited that they're gonna be here But they want to do you know all the touristy stuff they want to go on all these things all these things

[00:43:31] And I'm like I live to your for 10 years. I've never done these things And I was like yeah, what I lived in New York like how often you think I wanted to set your liberty Never

[00:43:40] There is something to be said about doing them ones but sure yeah and I think I never actually I've like Been on a boat around the statue of liberty, but I never like Gone to it. Yeah gone to it

[00:43:52] And yeah, I do in the ones great. But I don't know. Okay. How often are you gonna be spending there? Yeah, absolutely That's interesting But all right got another review here. It's a four star of you from hereiko

[00:44:02] The city of Los Angeles stars in this French crime flick J.L. Trenton Young plays a hitman Who flies into town to do his work once done he quickly realizes he's been set up Stranded in a strange city. He suddenly becomes prey himself

[00:44:15] Hunting Brooklyn, Leslie by the brilliance and always effectively underrated at Roy Shiter Thus begins a very lousy fair cat and mouse game There's really no one to sympathize with and no character development

[00:44:25] So even though you probably should be rooting for J.L. You're not committed to him or the cause Just enjoy the popcorn and the front row seats to the whole affair This is not an edge of your seat thrill a minute ride

[00:44:36] It's a cool cruise of CD underbellies all trying to outplay each other and slightly over the top encounters Add some wacky dramatic tea persona and back it up with a funky score by Michelle Lagrand And it's a recipe for a pleasant evening at the movies

[00:44:48] You know, that's a good point about you not really being able to root for anybody in this movie because he On a certain level, you know, you're like on Lucy inside right he's the main character

[00:44:57] You know, he's a hitman and whatever movie starts with him killing a guy killing a guy, but We find out he's a mobster so like probably deserve whatever you know, but then he'd like be so shit at a Jackie Earl Haley and you're like whoa

[00:45:09] I'm from like whoa wait a second I was on board with you and he like you know when he kidnaps that woman there is a you know The force her into the layman to his apartment and stuff it's like just to use the phone and there's no like

[00:45:21] You don't get a sense of any like a real danger that she's in with him until he slaps his her kid And then you're like what the fuck? He kind of comes out of nowhere Every character in this movie is you know dark in some way

[00:45:34] Yeah, you know they have dark associations I mean probably the most pure one is Nancy I guess but that's true even she is you know tied to the mob in in certain ways

[00:45:44] So yeah, I got one more of you here Mike. It's a three and half star review from Nick this isn't quite shocked to raise best film But it's cleanly his funniest It's also his honest cast featuring a Jean-Luc Ray Trinney on great here Roy Shader

[00:45:57] Solid and Margaret nearly steals the movie and she Dickinson under utilized Tally a Shire one scene wonder Michelle Constantine two scene wonder and Jackie Earl Haley literally 11 years old at the time

[00:46:09] It also features the score so funky you keep waiting for Pam Greer or Richard Brownish read a join the party But sadly they never That's a great pull Correct absolutely

[00:46:19] Draze always at his best when he's got a little pace behind him and this one clips along better than most with the Exhibition wellplotter between gun fights, banter, and car chases It's not any unsung masterpiece, but it's a delightful little genre programmer and if you like

[00:46:32] Grimy 70s LA crime films or grimy 70s French crime films It'll scratch the edge. It's also just about the definition of a 3.75 star rating But letterboxed restraining order is very clear about forbidding me from swinging by their home office to demand the ability to give me

[00:46:49] So I suppose I'll have to settle for 3.5 and a cranky note at the end of this review incredible Yes, would you agree to 3.75 star you get you have to three to half I'm gonna three and a half but I heard recently on a

[00:47:01] calendar episode of Purison of a pod they had a person whose name I forget but she is the I believe West Coast editor of for letterboxed And she was discussing the her her rating strategy is to include the heart like the like button

[00:47:17] Where she'll give a if it's a 3.5 you know something like that, but she did really like not quite a four She'll throw a heart on there and to her she'll know 3.5 with a heart is worth more than 3.5 with no heart

[00:47:28] And I was like that's wild and they're even considered using the heart Never even knew that button existed You didn't know the heart existed not I did But um, yeah, it was very interesting like the to you know

[00:47:38] And they they went off and a whole tangent about everyone's very personal and definition of what each start like what how to rank things and stuff But so I like that heart idea. Yeah, I mean that that is a good idea I almost never use the heart button

[00:47:50] Me neither. Yeah, you know I my ratings speaks for itself, you know, but But in my head I'm always like oh, but this is soft three not a hard three We're always talking about how broad a three three stars

[00:48:02] And we're like well now we can have a way to say it's a positive three or just okay three right But then you get two once you get to like lower ratings and it's like oh, it's a two star and a heart
