HIM.
DON’T KEEP SECRETS FROM ME
ALTHOUGH I KNOW YOU ARE SAFE AND
SMART AND USE YOUR HEAD.
>> I AM ACTUALLY ALREADY
PREGNANT.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I AM
CAPABLE OF.
>> VERY FUNNY JOKE.
RIGHT?
>> HI AMY, HADLEY, GOOD MORNING.
YOU LOOK LIKE MOTHER AND
DAUGHTER, TOO.
>> THE CASTING WORKED.
>> HADLEY, LET’S START WITH YOU.
YOU GOT TO WORK WITH AMY
POEHLER.
TELL BUS THAT?
>> I FELT INCREDIBLEY LUCKY TO
HAVE WORKED WITH HER AS A
DIRECTOR AND ALSO AS AN ACTOR.
SHE IS AN INCREDIBLE HUMAN.
IT IS LIKE FAMILY, THE WHOLE
CAST.
BUT AMY IS THE BEST.
SHE DOES IT ALL.
>> WE ARE CELEBRATING
INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY.
THAT’S WHY WE ASKED ALL OF YOU,
MOXIE, TOO, TO BE HERE.
AMY AS AN ACTRESS AND A DIRECTOR
WHAT DO YOU FEEL LIKE?
DO YOU FEEL LIKE WOMEN HAVE
THEIR VOICES HEARD?
DO YOU FEEL LIKE WE STILL HAVE A
LONG WAY TO GO?
WHAT DO YOU FEEL LIKE?
>> WELL, I -- FIRST OF ALL, IT
IS SO GOOD TO SEE MY DAUGHTER
THIS MORNING.
GOOD MORNING.
>> HI, MOM.
>> HI, BEAUTIFUL.
I -- I FEEL LIKE THIS PROJECT
WAS SO GREAT TO WORK ON BECAUSE
THERE WERE WOMEN IN FRONT OF AND
BEHIND THE CAMERA, AND WE ALL
GOT COLLABORATE TOGETHER.
AND, YOU KNOW, THE AUTHOR OF
THIS BOOK, JENNIFER MATU IS A
HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER, AND SHE
WROTE FROM EXPERIENCE.
AND SO -- I WORK EVERY DAY ALL
DAY WITH WOMEN.
SO IT’S MY FAVORITE WAY TO WORK.
>> AMY, IT GOT ME TO THINKING
ABOUT YOU IN HIGH SCHOOL.
WHAT WERE YOUR SUPERLATIVES IN
HIGH SCHOOL?
WERE YOU LIKE THE FUNNIEST?
OR WHAT WERE YOU?
>> YOU KNOW, I WENT TO HIGH
SCHOOL IN THE ’80s, SO THERE WAS
A LOT OF SUPERLATIVES THAT WERE
VERY APPROPRIATE.
THERE I AM.
>> WE ASKED THAT QUESTION JUST
TO SEE THAT PICTURE.
>> I DID NOT WIN ANY
SUPERLATIVES.
I DID COME IN THIRD RUNNER UP
FOR MOST CASUAL, WHICH -- I
DIDN’T WIN IT.
I WANTED IT TOO MUCH.
>> YOU REALLY CAME IN FOR
MOST -- THIRD PLACE FOR MOST
CASUAL.
>> YES.
THAT’S ALL I GOT.
>> LOOK AT YOU NOW.
HADLEY, YOU AREN’T IN HIGH
SCHOOL NOW.
YOU ARE OLDER THAN THE CHARACTER
YOU PLAYED.
WHAT WAS IT LIKE TO GET BACK
INTO THAT PLACE?
I FEEL LIKE THERE MUST HAVE BEEN
SOME NOSTALGIA?
>> YEAH, OF COURSE.
I WAS 24 WHEN WE SHOT THE MOVIE.
AND IT WAS FUN.
IT FELT LIKE A REAL HIGH SCHOOL
EXPERIENCE.
I THINK I WISH THAT I DID
SOMETHING IN MY HIGH SCHOOL
EXPERIENCE, THOUGH, WHERE I
REALLY DID START A REVOLUTION.
I WOULD ENCOURAGE IT.
IT WAS FUN.
AND EVERYBODY ON SET WAS
WONDERFUL.
WE ALL BECAME INSTANT FRIENDS.
IT WAS GREAT.
IT WAS A GOOD TIME.
>> WE MOVED "MOXIE."
WE WANT TO THANK YOU FOR COMING.
I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU ARE 24.
LITERALLY I WAS LIKE I CANNOT
BELIEVE THAT.
I AM SHOCKED.
>> RIGHT, AMY.
>> INCREDIBLE.
>> I TAKE IT AS A COMPLIMENT.
THANK YOU.
I’M 26 NOW.
>> 26?
OKAY, NOW, NO, WE’VE HAD ENOUGH
OF YOU, THAT’S IT.
>> HADLEY IS SIX FEET TALL BUT
SHE IS SUCH A GOOD ACTRESS, SHE
CAN PLAY SHORTER.
>>> I AM SO HAPPY.
WE ARE BACK WITH AMY POLAR AND
HADLEY ROBINSON.
THEY ARE STARS OF A NEW MOVIE,
YOU HAVE GOT CATCH IT, IT’S
CALLED "MOXIE."
AMY ALSO DIRECTED IT.
WE WERE WONDERING IF YOU ARE
BLEARY EYED, JENNA AND I STAYED
UP AND WATCHED THE OPRAH
INTERVIEW.
DID YOU WATCH.
>> I HAVEN’T SEEN IT YET.
WE HAVE BEEN DOING PRESS FOR
THIS.
BUT I HAVE GOT IT RECORDED AND I
AM GOING TO WATCH.
>> I AM SURE YOU HAVEN’T SEEN
ANY OF THE SPOILER ALERTS.
INTO YEAH, WE HAVE BEEN TALKING
ABOUT IT NON-STOP.
>> HODA AND I WERE TALKING IN
THE BREAK ABOUT OUR MOST
LEAKLYINGS IN HIGH SCHOOL.
>> OUR SUPERLATIVES.
WHAT WERE YOU.
>> MOST LIKELY TO TRIP ACROSS
THE STAGE AT GRADUATION BECAUSE
I WAS A KLUTZ.
BUT LATER, IT WAS ABOUT THE
BOOTS.
I LIKED THE BOOTS.
>> YOU SHOWED THEM.
>> I SHOWED THEM I DO NOT LIKE
THE BOOTS.
>> AMY, HE WAS JOL JEST JOCK.
AND THAT WAS NOT FOR SKINNY
GIRLS.
OKAY.
HADLEY,WAY WANT TO ASK YOU BUT
WE ARE AFRAID YOU WERE MOST
POPULAR OR MOST BEAUTIFUL.
WHICH WAS YOURS.
>> MINE IS EMBARRASSING, IT WAS
MOST LIKELY TO START A CULT
WHICH -- I DON’T -- I MEAN,
"MOXIE" IS REFLECTIVE OF THAT IN
SOME WAY, BUT, YES, VERY
EMBARRASSING.
>> DAVID KORESH-LIKE.
>> THAT WENT TOO FAR.
ANYWAY, WE WILL PLAY A QUICK
GAME WITH YOU.
THE MOVIE IS FILLED WITH
REBELLIOUS TEENS.
WE WANT TO HEAR IF YOU HAVE EVER
DONE THE FOLLOWING.
>> DID YOU EVER DYE YOUR HAIR OR
GET A PIERCING WITHOUT YOUR
PARENTS’ PERMISSION.
>> OH, YEAH.
NOSE PIERCE.
>> I CALLED MY MOM AND TOLD HER
ABOUT IT AND SHE’S LIKE YOU ARE
TAKING THAT OUT RIGHT NOW AND I
DID.
>> YOU DID.
GOOD GIRL.
>> AMY, ANY PIERCINGS?
>> MY ANSWERS ARE GOING TO BE SO
BORING BECAUSE MY MOM WAS A HIGH
SCHOOL TEACHER AT MY HIGH
SCHOOL.
SO I DIDN’T DO ANYTHING.
THE ANSWER IS, NO, I NEVER DID
THAT.
>> HERE’S ONE, SNUCK OUT PAST
YOUR CURFEW, AMY?
>> YEAH, I SURE DID.
BUT YOU KNOW, I GREW UP IN THE
’70s AND ’80s, WE DIDN’T EVEN
HAVE CURFEW.
YOUR PARENTS WERE LEAVE FOR THE
WEEKEND AND YOU WOULD BE ON YOUR
OWN.
YOU RAISED YOURSELF.
>> I LIKED THE DAYS WHEN THERE
WERE NO TIGER PARENTS.
>> TAKE THE KEYS.
SEE YOU LATER.
>> YEAH, GO.
WHAT ABOUT TATTOOS SFOOCHLT
HADLEY?
HADLEY, TATTOO?
>> HADLEY.
>> I WON’T TELL YOU WHAT IT IS
OR WHERE IT IS, BUT, YES, THAT
HAPPENED.
>> DO YOU REGRET IT, DO YOU WISH
YOU COULD GET IT REMOVED OR ARE
YOU STILL INTO IT?
>> NO, I LOVE IT.
>> THERE IS MORE THERE.
>> WE WANT YOU TO CATCH "MOXIE,"
