Joy: ALL RIGHT.
THE POPCORN, NICE AND HOT.
KURT THE FILM GUY IS BACK TO
TALK ABOUT MOVIES, STREAMING,
ALL THE THINGS WE NEED TO BE
WATCHING.
WHAT YOU GOT FOR US THIS WEEK?
Guest: WE KNOW JONAH HILL
FROM COMEDIES LIKE "21 JUMP
STREET" "MONEY BALL" AND "WOLF
OF WALL STREET".
LIKE MANY ACTORS, HE'S TAKING ON
THE DIRECTOR'S SEAT.
"MID-90s" IS A COMING OF AGE
STORY OF A 13 YEAR-OLD WHO
STARTS HANGING OUT WITH SKATERS
IN HIS LOS ANGELES COMMUNITY.
HE CHANGES HIS ENTIRE LIFESTYLE
AND THE DRUGS THAT GO ALONG WITH
THESE CHARACTERS THAT HE STARTS
HANGING OUT WITH, THE ONE
QUESTION REMAINS: WHAT WILL
BREAK THEM?
WHAT WILL MAKE THIS GO WRONG?
BECAUSE THEY'RE USED TO A
DIFFERENT LIFESTYLE.
AND THEN, THIS 13 YEAR-OLD IS
NOT READY FOR THAT LIFESTYLE
QUITE YET.
Joy: KIND OF A COMING OF AGE
FILM.
Guest: DEFINITELY A COMING
OF AGE FILM.
Joy: BIG TIME.
JONAH HILL, WHO IS REALLY
INTERESTING.
HE'S FUN TO WATCH AS AN ACTOR.
NOW HE'S TAKEN ON THIS ROLE AS
DIRECTOR.
I HAVE A FEELING HE'S GOOD AT
IT.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
I DEFINITELY THINK SO.
HE CAST SOME UP AND COMING
STARS.
SO SOME OF THEM ARE NEW TO THE
FILM ACTUALLY.
SO THAT CAN BE GOOD, AND THAT
CAN BE HIT AND MISS, TOO.
REALISTIC AND VERY TRUE TO THIS
GENERATION OF THE '90s.
IT'S SET IN THE '90s.
Joy: IT'S A BIT OF A THROW
BACK.
THERE ARE NEW FACES, BUT THERE
ARE SOME FACES WE WILL
RECOGNIZE.
Guest: THERE ARE DEFINITELY
SOME PEOPLE YOU'LL RECOGNIZE.
THE KID SONNY, PLAYS THE MAIN
BOY.
KATHERINE, YOU'LL KNOW HER FROM
THE "ALIEN COVENANTS" AND
"FANTASTIC BEASTS" FILM AS WELL.
SHE NAILS THE ROLE AS THE MOM.
HIS BROTHER IS PLAYED BY LUCAS
HEDGES.
IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD OF LUCAS
HEDGES, YOU NEED TO.
HE WAS IN THREE MAJOR FILMS LAST
YEAR.
AND TWO HUGE ONES THE YEARS
BEFORE.
YOU PROBABLY HEARD HIM IN
"MANCHESTER BY THE SEA".
"BEN IS BACK" AND "BOY ERASED".
CHECK THOSE OUT.
HE'S GOING TO BE A BIG, BIG
STAR.
JUST LIKE THE SONNY SUNJUC.
I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO BE UP
AND COMING, BIG NAMES.
Joy: YOU WOULD THINK
SOMEBODY LIKE JONAH HILL WOULD
HAVE HIS EYE AN PEOPLE THAT HE
THINKS ARE GOING TO PULL THIS
OFF.
I'M EAGER TO SEE THIS.
WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE WAY
THIS IS SHOT?
IS THERE SOMETHING DIFFERENT?
IT'S IN FULL-SCREEN.
IN MY OPINION AND MANY PEOPLE
ARE USED TO 35 MILLIMETER.
AND THAT 16 MILLIMETER IS MORE
OF A STYLE THAT STUDENTS LIKE
MYSELF SHOT.
AND INDEPENDENT FILM MAKERS OF
THE '90s.
SO THIS HAS A FITTING TOUCH TO
FEEL LIKE IT'S THE '90s.
THIS YEAR, BUT IT WAS SET IN THE
'90s.
HE THOUGHT IT WAS FROM THE '90s.
Joy: TALK ABOUT WHAT ELSE IS
OUT THERE WE SHOULD BE WATCHING?
THE KIDS WILL BE EXCITED.
THE "LEGO MOVIE 2" IS OUT TO BUY
ON STREAMING SITES.
NOTHING IS AWESOME ANYMORE AS
OUR FRIENDS ARE KIDNAPPED AND
EMMETT HAS TO RESCUE THEM WITH
THE HELP OF AN INCREDIBLY
PERFECT SPACEMAN THAT IS ALSO A
DIN
