So because you got so many rolls,
we thought we would do this funny little,
we call it Land The Part.
We run like a reel around of all of your movie rolls,
you hit this cheap button that we bought at like $4.00.
And then they'll stop it on something,
and you tell us a behind the scenes,
something we might not know about.
So just yeah,
so just hit it whenever you want.
Bridges of Spies.
Oh what a film. (audience claps)
Just when people say,
"They don't make them like that anymore."
They made it like that.
You know what I mean?
They brought back real movies.
Yeah you're right.
It's a really good movie.
I have nothing funny to say about that.
(Rachael laughs)
I remember loving working with Spielberg.
And just I loved to work with
these great directors and just watch them.
When you see somebody who
really knows how to do what they do,
it's so much fun to watch their brain work.
Just to see them do it.
Bless you!
So in that movie you're a lawyer.
Would you have been a good lawyer?
The only thing I'm good at is what I do.
(audience laughs) Yeah, me too.
My husband is a lawyer and he says
I'd be a great lawyer because I love to argue.
And I'm like, no.
Too many heavy books.
I like being in the kitchen better.
When I was getting famous and
I was doing MASH,
twice some democratic club came from New Jersey and said
we want you to run for the US senate.
I said why would I do that?
And I said I'm an actor and a writer.
I wouldn't even be good at it.
And he said, "Yeah but we'll get you elected."
Yeah but people like you! (audience laughs)
So that's how they pick 'em folks.
(audience cheers) Right out of the hat.
Alright hit the button again.
Let's go.
Oh, I got another button?
Yeah we're gonna do three of them.
Oh, The West Wing!
Boy that's such great writing,
and amazing ensemble cast.
It really was wonderful.
I loved doing it.
I loved the guy running for president,
and I really wanted to win. (Rachael laughs)
And when we shot the final show,
and I read the script and everything,
and I knew how it ended,
it ended that I didn't win.
But when I watched the show right up to the last minute,
I thought maybe I'll still win.
(audience laughs)
Okay one more for the road.
Oh! What a great movie!
Alright.
I'll tell ya something.
Probably the most romantic affair ever!
It's about two people who are married to other people,
who meet every year for 20 years for a weekend together.
But it's beautiful. Yeah right so,
I mean in a creepy beautiful kind of way.
Beautiful in a creepy way right.
So I'm in airports a lot,
and women come up to me,
they don't just say, "I love that movie."
They say, "It's my life story."
Whoa did that get dark!
Why would you say that to a stranger?
Isn't that weird?
That's a weird level of creepy communication!
Thanks for sharing!
So this Clear+Vivid show,
I don't know did I miss the invitation to come to that?
Well it's really for people who are good at communication.
If I brought a casserole?
A casserole?
If I bring you food to bribe you,
could I get on?
You don't even have to use your bribes.
I'm here to ask you to be on my show.
Yes? Yes.
I would love to!
I'm so excited. And you know,
if you happen to have a pizza in your pocket,
it wouldn't hurt. (Rachael laughs)
You got it brother.
Pinky swear.
Oh that was so much fun.
I hate to go back to work but
you can listen to Alan's podcast Clear+Vivid,
and you know that is something that
I do find a big benefit in having the gadgets and things.
I now listen to podcasts when I'm walking from
this part of the city to that part of the city.
And I feel so much smart by the time I get there.
Also if you guys enter our website,
we're gonna hook you up with
more info about the Alan Alda Center.
And we'll make sure that
the dates are up before that if you're a doctor,
for the upcoming event that you have is,
did you day December?
December. In December.
You're a delight. You're a delight.
That was a dream come true. Thank you.
