( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) ♪♪
>> Stephen: HEY, EVERYBODY.
WE'RE BACK HERE IN VIRTUAL PARADISE WITH MELISSA
McCARTHY.
YOU'RE STARRING IN THE NEW MOVIE CALLED "THE STARLING," AND WHAT
IS THIS ABOUT?
ARE YOU THE STARLING?
>> I'M NOT, NO, BUT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO PLAYING A BIRD AT
SOME POINT.
( LAUGHTER ) THIS IS -- IT'S A REALLY LOVELY
STORY.
TED MALFY WHO I DID SZ ST. VINCENT WITH, HE DIRECTED
IT, AND IT'S, YOU KNOW, A COMPLICATED KIND OF
HEARTBREAKING HOPEFUL STORY ABOUT MARRIAGE AND LOVE AND LOSS
AND KIND OF YOU HAVE TO FIGHT FOR THE LIFE YOU WANT, AND CHRIS
O'DOWD IS IN IT WITH ME AND KEVIN KLINE.
IT'S A LOVELY STORY.
I'M TRYING TO GET MY LIFE BACK TOGETHER AND THERE'S A BIRD IN
MY YARD THAT KEEPS ATTACKING ME.
THIS BIRD LITERALLY BECOMES MY NEMESIS, THEN WE KIND OF HAVE
PARALLEL LIVES.
IT'S REALLY LOVELY AND IN THE END VERY HOPEFUL.
>> Stephen: THE CHARACTER HAS TO BATTLE THIS BIRD THAT KEEPS
SWOOPING AT LILY?
>> YEAH, COMING AT ME.
>> Stephen: DID THEY HAVE A TENNIS BALL ON A STICK BECAUSE I
UNDERSTAND IT'S A C.G.I. BIRD.
>> IT IS A C.G.I. BIRD.
A LOT OF TIMES IT WAS TOO HIGH UP TO PUT ANYTHING, SO TED WOULD
TELL ME WHERE IT WAS.
HE STARTED WITHOUT TELLING ME, SO IT WAS A PRETTY EMOTIONAL
SCENE, AND I'M LOOKING UP A AT THIS BIRD AND YOU HEAR TED
STANDING OVER THE MONITOR GOING --
( CAWING ) AND I WAS, LIKE, WHAT THE HELL
IS THAT, HEAD TED?
AND HE SAID, I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU BY DOING THE BIRD.
AND THERE WAS NO WARNING, WE LAUGHED SO HARD.
THEN AS WE WENT ALONG, WEIRDLY, I WAS, LIKE, OKAY, CAN YOU DO
THE BIRD THING AGAIN?
THEN I NEEDED IT.
BUT WE HAVE ALL THIS WEIRD VIDEO FOOTAGE OF TED BEING LIKE --
( CAWING ) >> Stephen: IS THAT WHAT
STARLINGS SOUND LIKE IS THIS.
>> HE LOOKED IT UP.
>> Stephen: THEY'RE LITTLE BIRDS, AREN'T THEY?
>> NOT IF YOU ASK TED MALFY.
>> Stephen: YOUR CO-STAR CHRIS O'DOWD WAS ALSO IN
"BRIDESMAIDS."
WE'VE GOT A LITTLE PHOTO HERE.
THERE YOU ARE TOGETHER.
>> LOOK AT THAT.
>> Stephen: ALONG WITH WILSON PHILLIPS THERE.
>> AS THEY SHOULD BE.
>> Stephen: YEAH.
IT'S TEN YEARS SINCE THE MOVIE CAME OUT.
I'LL THROW THIS TO YOU.
>> OH, YEAH, THROW IT OVER.
OH, YEAH!
GOT IT!
>> Stephen: THERE YOU GO.
LOOK AT THAT!
>> Stephen: TEN YEARS LATER, IS THERE SOMETHING THAT WE DON'T
KNOW ABOUT THE MAKING OF THAT MOVIE?
>> WELL, MANY THINGS.
THERE WAS -- WELL, SO MANY -- LIKE SO MANY OF US HAD BEEN
FRIENDS FOR A LONG TIME, ALREADY.
I'M ALWAYS ABOUT THREE TO FOUR YEARS LATE WITH TECHNOLOGY.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
O, TRULY -- LIKE RIGHT NOW I WOULD BE, LIKE, HAVE YOU GUYS
HEARD OF Facebook?
I'M, LIKE, I STILL WRITE LETTERS.
>> Stephen: SURE.
BUT I HAD JUST -- THIS WAS TEN YEARS AGO.
I WAS, LIKE, DO YOU KNOW WHO THERE'S AN APP THAT CAN MAKE YOU
OLD OR CAN MAKE YOU INTO A GUY?
THE ONE THAT'S BEEN AROUND FOR THREE YEARS.
IT WAS BRAND-NEW TO ME, SO I CONSTANTLY WAS MAKING US ALL
INTO MEN, ESPECIALLY OLDER MEN.
WHEN WE WERE OUT ON THE WATER IN THE LAST SCENE BEFORE WILSON
PHILLIPS COMES ON, WE WERE TRAPPED ON THERE BECAUSE WE WERE
ON LITTLE MED STALLS IN WATER.
I CAN'T NAME NAMES, BUT I WOULD SAY MORE THAN TWO AND LESS THAN
FIVE OF US WERE LAUGHING SO HARD THAT WE MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE WET
OR PANTS.
SO THAT'S A FUN FACT THAT'S NEVER BEEN TOLD.
>> Stephen: IN A TAFFETA DRESS?
>> YEAH.
YOU SAY THAT AS IF THAT'S ODD.
I ONLY GO TO THE BATHROOM IN TAFFETA.
>> Stephen: VERY ABSORBENT.
THE WICKING PROPERTIES OF TAFFETA ARE NOT AS WELL KNOWN AS
THEY SHOULD BE.
>> Stephen: WHEN WE GET BACK, I'LL ASK MISSA ABOUT HER BRIEF
AND EXCITING BASEBALL CAREER.
