- 2:33So, Sean, before we get into crust, mate, I know that you've been in quite a
- 2:39few other movies, and I've got just two things before we get to crust, mate.
- 2:45First of all, tell me your Waterworld story. I love Waterworld.
- 2:49The story was, I don't even remember the audition, actually,
- 2:53but I was hired to be one of the smokers. Oh, yeah.
- 2:58They brought me there for a week and my ex-wife joined me and we were on the
- 3:02big island or on the island of Kona, the city of Kona.
- 3:06And I remember I was riding, I was supposed to ride a jet ski.
- 3:11Right. And he said, all right, you're going to come and do your jet ski training.
- 3:15And I was like, all right. So I went in there like, this makes it go fast.
- 3:21That's your training. Right.
- 3:25Okay. And then I go, now what? and they go
- 3:27you have two hours and i go as long as you stay in
- 3:30this border you're so i got to plan a
- 3:33jet ski for two hours just having that and then you know rebecca
- 3:36knows me by the end i'm like spinning it to see if how far i can fly off and
- 3:40you know and of course i hit my head on the handle and i'm like oh it's so dumb
- 3:43i shouldn't do that but i just had the best time and then when we shot we shot
- 3:47at night and they're just to get everyone ready they had a they had a production
- 3:53line almost So people just standing there like this and they would take oil and go,
- 3:56you know, get you oily and messed up.
- 4:00And then my scene was with Kevin Costner jumping up and pulling me down underwater
- 4:06that did not make the theatrical release, but it made every other. It made the DVD.
- 4:12It made that. So because my name was underwater.
- 4:15Yeah. He jumps up and pulls us down off of our things. But he.
- 4:19Right. Yeah. He can breathe. Yeah. Essentially.
- 4:23Wow. Yeah. One of those guys. I was one of those guys, you know,
- 4:27and then I just remember Kevin Costner walking by in his fish costume and going, oh, he's tall.
- 4:33And that was about it. That was it. That's fantastic.
- 4:36I'll have to watch it again later. Yeah. Yeah. And my other question on crust
- 4:41related is food. It's a twister question.
- 4:45Yes. Food. Yes. I just want to know that the one particular part,
- 4:50when you're having the steak and eggs, the big scene, the big eating scene was the steak.
- 4:56Were they awful horrendous everybody the greatest
- 4:59thing in the they made these steaks like just on a
- 5:02normal type grill they put them on our plates the
- 5:05scene took a week to shoot wow and
- 5:08when we would leave the table well
- 5:11the whole thing in that house right there's the shower you know
- 5:14stuff in the front yard and our meal and the whole thing but
- 5:18they when they would leave so this
- 5:21is an old house they had a big air conditioning tube they would turn it
- 5:24off it would get super hot and they would cover our
- 5:27plates with a paper towel a paper towel
- 5:30that was it there's flies buzzing
- 5:33around and i just remember you can imagine me sitting
- 5:36next to wendell right yeah it was
- 5:39like it was like we'd cut it they'd go cut like you
- 5:43would just have everybody had a spit bucket and everyone's like
- 5:45that looks like the best meal i was like dude no it was that's
- 5:50a shame two days it looks brilliant
- 5:53i can't watch that movie without oh my god but i
- 5:56know it makes me hungry every time i see it but you know you
- 6:00know but that's a shame yeah i mean um yeah it
- 6:03was a it was a fun the biggest thing is you bet that was
- 6:06jan and bill paxton's biggest fight they had a
- 6:09huge fight on the set because he said
- 6:12this is a tissue of lies and and
- 6:16bill said no one from texas would.
- 6:18Say tissue of lies rebecca he goes
- 6:21no one says tissue lies i never
- 6:24heard that right he and and jan said
- 6:27no they would say he goes a tissue of lies because it's
- 6:30fragile and can be easily and i he goes to go he'd say i'd say that's bullshit
- 6:36like i mean you know what i mean like he was trying to go i'm from texas i'm
- 6:39from here they don't god was from sweden and he just leaned in and they fought
- 6:45and he had and he made him say the line but we were all and then he was like
- 6:49what about you guys and we're all going.
- 6:51We don't want to get into this. You know what I mean? So we're like,
- 6:54we're going to leave you guys alone.
- 6:56So, but it was a bummer because he is right.
- 7:00I mean, everybody that I've ever asked this question to from Texas,
- 7:03Rebecca's from Texas, no one would say tissue of lies. They go,
- 7:06oh, that's, that's crap. Or, you know, they just wouldn't say that.
- 7:10So that was another thing from the big kitchen seat. But the food thing was
- 7:14me and Phil used to do that all the time on set.
- 7:16Like, what's up? You go, what's up? And so when it was time to shoot that scene, we just did what we did.
- 7:22Wow yeah uh you know
- 7:24you say you should never spoil the magician should never spoil your
- 7:27tricks because i'll watch it differently now but i know that's
- 7:31okay i still i still think it looks great i mean oh no
- 7:34no no it's still great despite despite knowing that
- 7:38now it still makes me feel like steak and eggs oh man
- 7:41every time i see it makes me hungry and i go
- 7:44wait a minute i was there and it's that that's true
- 7:47but this sort of ties into crust
- 7:50a little bit because as as you know twister received
- 7:53twisters recently and the reboot
- 7:57refix redo reimagine situation
- 8:01is a freight train too big to stop it's a
- 8:04bit like the titanic it's going to take a bloody big iceberg to bring it down
- 8:07and there's only going to be room left for half the people on board yeah it's
- 8:13it's a trend that continues just simply because it's a money machine too big
- 8:20to turn off at this point.
- 8:22And this, of course, leads into Crust because the most excellent tragedy of
- 8:27Vegas winters is, of course, he is unearthed because of his past,
- 8:34because he is the, what happened to the little baker?
- 8:38What did the little baker dozen boy do next? Yeah. Yeah.
- 8:45So, obviously, that's something that when you were conceiving this idea was
- 8:50the current climate, cultural climate in the movies.
- 8:54Yeah, because, you know, it was, we wrote it in 2016, mid-2016,
- 8:59and that was when, you know, corporate Marvel, corporate Harry Potter,
- 9:05corporate Star Wars was all, you know, and you're like, wow,
- 9:09is there any, you know, and then sequels,
- 9:12prequels and all, you know, this, like, four or
- 9:15five main ips that they were just drawing from yes and
- 9:18marvel's a universe and so is harry potter and
- 9:21you know and and and these other
- 9:24ones but and star wars but you it gets boring you know and especially the one
- 9:31we wrote it was the tv ideas getting rebooted you know it's when full house
- 9:35starting up and it was such a big deal like people are like this is crazy so i love you bogus,
- 9:42I love the bogus entertainment tonight. What's it called?
- 9:45Tinseltown tonight in the show.
- 9:48Did you ever see that Christopher Guest movie for your consideration where they did a similar thing?
- 9:52And it's got Fred Willard and Jane Lynch, I think, doing the same sort of deal
- 9:56with it basically, you know.
- 9:58Baker doesn't. I love the thing. Like, I kind of want to see a film,
- 10:02like I said, called Baker's Curse where you follow the surviving kids because
- 10:07these poor buggers had so much trouble.
- 10:09They're drug addicts. One guy set his wife on fire.
- 10:13What the hell was going on on Baker's? I know, because this all happened after
- 10:17Baker's Dozen, didn't it?
- 10:18Yeah, this stuff is all after. This was life after Baker's Dozen.
- 10:22Yeah. Well, there's a lot of tragedy, and unfortunately, these young kids, you know, that it's,
- 10:31has a lot to do with the family you know you look at
- 10:34ron howard and go why him you know
- 10:36but he was on he was with andy griffith
- 10:39and don knott's who had been around for a long time and was very protective
- 10:44of little ron they it was little ronnie back in the day they were protective
- 10:48of little ronnie and and and same with his family was very tight and good to
- 10:54him so he had a good structure,
- 10:58and I think that's huge but then there's other parents who want to take the
- 11:02money and there's other parents that just you know aren't really involved but
- 11:06then get involved because they're getting famous and you know so we were just
- 11:10trying to do a dark parody of the world that's all,
- 11:14and what would you do if everybody was dead except your two leads you know.
- 11:20And and Rebecca another thing that plays into another cultural thing of relevance
- 11:24is certainly the influencer culture,
- 11:26which your character's story has a through line that involves being an influencer
- 11:34and being popular on social media or searching for that social media fandom.
- 11:40It's ripe, isn't it? You can say, hock, tour, and get a Hollywood agent.
- 11:46Right. Now you're famous. Right. Exactly. I can understand the toxicity of it.
- 11:55Needing you know when you post something you're
- 11:58you get you know if you don't get the amount of likes you want or
- 12:01you don't get the comments you want you know you're bummed i
- 12:04mean sean and i've had like where we you know post something like
- 12:07about something important and like you know
- 12:10social media will squash it nobody sees it and
- 12:13yeah you're so disappointed and and
- 12:17you're like you almost need that validation which is which is
- 12:20so toxic and so scary and when
- 12:23they don't like you too they come after you like people with
- 12:26pitchforks don't they right so i could definitely
- 12:29you know relate to her desperation of like
- 12:32uh you know needing needing to be seen
- 12:35needing for someone right right but at the same time wanting to have that what
- 12:41we what we kind of lost when social media took over what is that that strong
- 12:45personal connection with someone else right but at the same time you have the
- 12:49social media devil on your other shoulder saying you don't know this way,
- 12:55You need to post another video. You need to post another naked photo or something.
- 13:01How did you know? You need to get your socks out. Yeah.
- 13:09I mean, you know, social media has a lot of great stuff that,
- 13:12you know, connects people, gets your stuff out there, connects you with fans
- 13:17that you would never get to talk to or know.
- 13:19Yeah. I mean, like everything, there's a positive side.
- 13:23But, of course, when such a useful tool that connects people is used for evil
- 13:31and a bunch of people turn it into a lynching platform, we don't like him to
- 13:35say, let's all join together and get him.
- 13:38Yeah. Right. Yeah. Yeah. You can get a mob mentality like that, you know.
- 13:44And it spreads like wildfire through dry ground.
- 13:47And that's Vegas's plight when he gets discovered, you know.
- 13:51Now everybody knows where he is, and that's why he's being hounded.
- 13:56So that's supposed to be the reminder, those reporters and everything. That's the pressure.
- 14:04That's the pressure on a little laundromat. And I like the fact that it's kind
- 14:09of because he tapes up the front windows.
- 14:12I like how it's kind of just that ominous sound effect on the windows,
- 14:17like the cameras, and you can hear people in the background.
- 14:20Obviously there's a crowd outside trying to to you
- 14:23to check it out but this film was really beautiful as
- 14:26soon as i saw the black and white i love films in black and white made me think
- 14:29of which is the elephant man jim jarmusch's films oh it made me i love them
- 14:35tom tom de chilo or tom de killer do you know his which one tom de chilo who
- 14:42is he living in oblivion the real blonde oh Living in Oblivion.
- 14:46God, that's an old title. Yeah.
- 14:49But this film made me think of Living in Oblivion because of the way you cut
- 14:52from the black and white to the color. Uh-huh.
- 14:56Yeah. He did that when he was doing the...
- 15:00I think it was when he was doing their dreams, all the dream stuff was black
- 15:04and white, but in the room, the stuff was in color.
- 15:07And there's a lot more of that right now. You know, Godzilla Minus One was released in black and white.
- 15:12It was that way Oppenheimer had black and white. Four Things had black and white.
- 15:17Like a lot of things have had black and white this year, which is really good.
- 15:21And Ripley, one of the nominated shows, was all in black and white on Netflix.
- 15:28It's beautiful. Like, I think I said after I watched Cross the first time,
- 15:33I said it was like Little Shop of Horrors as though directed by Jim Jarmusch.
- 15:36Yeah. That's a nice.
- 15:39Well, it's kind of, I always say it's Little Shop of Horrors meets Willard. Right, yeah.
- 15:46Because, you know, Willard likes that the rats are, you know, makes him tougher.
- 15:50And then Godfather, you know, he turns, you know, Vegas's journey.
- 15:57So it's kind of like a mashup of those three. Yeah.
- 16:02Another cast member I want to throw out who's a great performance,
- 16:06and he's been my guest a couple of times, is Danny Roebuck.
- 16:10Love Danny. He's one of the nicest guys in Hollywood and does a real bang-up
- 16:16job as the fourth, as the man who's been told more than once to stop drinking
- 16:22in the laundromat but still consistently doing it.
- 16:25He's great. Let me ask you a question. Is that constant?
- 16:31Ignoring me is the disrespect. Sorry.
- 16:35Did you think him when every time I said, don't drink in the thing,
- 16:39he'd go, okay. And then you, he keeps doing it. Do you see it as disrespect?
- 16:44You do? Yeah. I mean, yeah.
- 16:47Disrespectful is my question. Like my, I get upset that he doesn't listen to
- 16:51me, you know, but if people, I had some people go, no, he's,
- 16:55he's just, he's not thinking.
- 16:57And other people go, yeah, he's not being told to you. So it's interesting how people,
- 17:01so I was asking you, did you see it as more of like, he's
- 17:04treating you not really cool or he's just not aware
- 17:07you know no no i i i think he i
- 17:10think he is aware because i noticed the second
- 17:13time that i watched it that that vegas
- 17:16foreshadows the ending in the first conversation that he has with with danny
- 17:23yeah yeah yeah right and that's i i missed it the first time but the second
- 17:29time that's why i always watch movies more than once because The second time
- 17:32I heard that and I thought, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.
- 17:36Right. I see, I see. It was like that movie This Is The End.
- 17:40Do you remember the one that Seth Rogen did with Franco? Yes, I loved that one.
- 17:44And if you listen carefully, Franco tells you how he's going to die when there's
- 17:49weed earlier in the film.
- 17:51Yeah, yeah. Because he goes, yeah, and then I get torn to pieces and Danny eats me.
- 17:56Yeah. And he's laughing about it. And then, of course. That's exactly what happened.
- 18:03But yeah i i look another great
- 18:06cast member i loved was william brier who's the
- 18:09that's kind of the job fantastic my favorite line in the movie that bit where
- 18:14he says remember when we were kids and they said be careful playing with playing
- 18:18frisbee with knives just say we weren't careful yeah yeah we love that line.
- 18:28Because we were trying, we just said something about like running with scissors.
- 18:32We had a normal line and then we thought, no, it's funnier if he just says something
- 18:35absolutely ridiculous, you know?
- 18:38Yeah. He's a great character and he brought so much to it.
- 18:42He knew exactly how he wanted his character to look and his evolution,
- 18:47which we won't say what that is, but, but, you know, how it,
- 18:51how it evolves and how, you know, so it's, it's, it was great to have.
- 18:56But I had people with ideas, you know, I never leaned into Rebecca and said,
- 19:02this is how I want you to play Neela.
- 19:05Like she, I gave all my actors and I just saw Greta Gerwig say this in an interview,
- 19:12say, you know, I get the script, then I get my actors and then I give my script
- 19:16to my actors and it becomes their character.
- 19:20And you know rebecca made just
- 19:23amazing choices i never would have thought of but
- 19:26were so fun you know as a
- 19:30screenwriter myself i've often seen as the script is like a coloring book and
- 19:34the actors take the pencils and and color it in because essentially it's all
- 19:39it is is like line drawings but it's it's it's a great creative actor that takes
- 19:44it and makes it live because i mean And let's face it,
- 19:48is there any words on paper until you do something with it?
- 19:52We can't step over the fact that Alan Ruck is in this movie back together again.
- 19:56I just wanted to ask, is that bit where he says, be careful that you don't increase the contract?
- 20:00Was it like a reference to don't fold the maps? Yes, you're the first one to get it.
- 20:05Love it. I knew it. As soon as you move that bit of paper, hey,
- 20:09be careful, don't increase the contract.
- 20:11Yeah, don't fold the contracts. I thought that's don't fold the maps. Yes, it is.
- 20:17Yeah, on purpose.
- 20:21I had to give a little shout out to the Twister fans, you know? Yeah.
- 20:25I love how your name is Vegas in the film, but he's wearing the bad Elvis,
- 20:30like, two-packing. There it is, yeah.
- 20:32Yeah, yeah, yeah, excellent. Oh, and also I love, too, how Danny keeps doing
- 20:37the lines from Heartbreaker Hotel, like, when he's- Oh, yeah,
- 20:42oh, no, no, no, that's all right, Mama.
- 20:43Oh, yeah, yeah, that's right, yeah, that's all right. Which is not – it's public
- 20:47domain because it's a blues song in the 30s.
- 20:50Yeah, yeah. So it's not – Because Elvis did – When he sings it,
- 20:53you go, oh, it's the Elvis.
- 20:54No, it is. Yeah, yeah, no, no, because Elvis did a lot of covers,
- 20:57hey, so – Yeah, a ton of covers.
- 20:59Yeah. Yeah. That's – so, look, this is – I mean, this –,
- 21:05You know, that's why independent cinema is so beautiful, because I can't imagine
- 21:11you going into an office and say, hey, I've got this movie about a sock monster.
- 21:18Well, I mean, the other thing is Rebecca and I are the type of character actors they get.
- 21:24You guys are so specific, but when the part's right, it's so right,
- 21:27you know, which means you're not going to work.
- 21:30But but but so for
- 21:33us to be romantic leads is no
- 21:37no i just we we don't get those auditions
- 21:40we don't get those so what was
- 21:43great about working with her was that we realized that
- 21:46we thought if our chemistry doesn't work the movie doesn't hold
- 21:49up so we worked in an acting class for
- 21:52a few weeks but can i ask
- 21:55rebecca a question i've never asked yeah go i don't
- 21:59know how you found neela like did
- 22:01you ever have substitutions for the way because i when i keep watching it you're
- 22:05so specific in your physicality the way you know you do your hands and stuff
- 22:10and the way you know it's very specific did you have someone you drew on specifically
- 22:16or Did it come from a lot of different pieces or what?
- 22:19That's a good question. I didn't have someone I was using specifically, if that makes sense.
- 22:26A little bit of several different people that I know that I've seen do certain
- 22:32things that I was like, oh, that's interesting. I'm going to use that someday and see what comes in.
- 22:37And she kind of came into that.
- 22:40It was a lot of imagination and finding what I could connect to first,
- 22:46which, you know, as Rebecca, I can understand, you know, feeling lost,
- 22:52feeling lonely, feeling like no one really understands you.
- 22:56Yeah it was going through a lot of what i have gone through in my career and
- 23:02like finding my journey as an actor and as a and as a human i'm sure we all
- 23:06can probably relate to feeling,
- 23:08like no is anyone else ever going to really understand us right but you also
- 23:12said it's something that was powerful to me you said she's much cooler than
- 23:16me yeah so where did that come from then how do you draw on something if you
- 23:20don't know how cool you know what i mean.
- 23:23I know i guess kind of how
- 23:26sometimes i wish i was like she just was like quick and and i mean honestly
- 23:31that's obviously the writing so that's a credit to you sean but but you know
- 23:35she just wasn't afraid to say her mind and her and put herself out there and take risks and be,
- 23:44shot down it's like i don't know as rebecca if i gave my number to a guy and
- 23:48he didn't call me I would have just been like I never did that moving on like
- 23:53she would have been cool for me to like go up to you and be like hey I gave you my number,
- 24:00you didn't act on it I'm not sure I could do that so it's kind of like how I
- 24:05wish sometimes I could do things.
- 24:08And it's funny when you step into another character,
- 24:12how you're confident in ways that you're not as yourself, like we want a different skin.
- 24:18And so if you're turned down, quote unquote, it's not you, there's not. Right.
- 24:26She was interesting to find. I think, like you said, we were in a class, so that helped.
- 24:31And just, you know, just trying stuff, just seeing what... I like to work physically.
- 24:37I like to find that almost sometimes almost first.
- 24:40So yeah yeah that's an interesting
- 24:43question and in our indiegogo just for
- 24:47people to know we did every shirt that nila
- 24:50wears is a design that someone submitted okay yeah
- 24:54so the and and all the patches on her jean
- 24:57jacket were the same right so yeah it
- 25:00was very cool so that they're all like it's all fan art
- 25:03that is all over nila which is very awesome there you
- 25:06go but the stuff the stuff you were just
- 25:09talking about then the the depth of character is is
- 25:12really what separates this movie crust from being like
- 25:15the the kind of more uh campy more
- 25:19b-movie campy equivalent would be called something like
- 25:22you know crusty sock demon of doom right right
- 25:26exactly whereas this is you know sort of
- 25:29it's like little shop of horrors sort
- 25:32of thing you know right or attack of the killer tomatoes or rubber
- 25:35or pants or you know like the slacks or
- 25:38was a slacks right yeah but but but yeah
- 25:41i didn't want to make it i wanted it to be a real story that just happened to
- 25:47have a sock monster not the movie be about a sock right yeah exactly yeah you
- 25:50know and the crust that's on all of us that we have to try to get to the soft
- 25:56part right yeah or or you know or the.
- 26:00Cross that, that protects. Yeah. Right.
- 26:04100%. Cause I got it. I don't want to score the ending, but I really loved,
- 26:09I was waiting for that. It sort of felt like,
- 26:12interview with a vampire i was waiting for mick to start singing
- 26:15you know please allow me to introduce myself i'm
- 26:20a sock of wealth and taste that's great because uh i'm not going to spoil the
- 26:27ending but it does take neela and you know about this too it does take a a twist
- 26:32at the end that i didn't see coming and and having watched it a couple of times
- 26:35now i still that twist is still,
- 26:39surprising and and a real master stroke
- 26:42and like i was talking about tom to chile's films i love
- 26:44how it cuts to to to color
- 26:47right as all as although
- 26:51of what you've seen before has been you know
- 26:54right a perception of depression and
- 26:58loneliness and exactly yeah there's no
- 27:01color in vegas's life at that point you know
- 27:04so and it was interesting we had we
- 27:07had when we had a writer's room come in and
- 27:09give us notes we had very good friends of ours some of the filmmakers rebecca
- 27:14knows and i know and we had a reading and the interesting thing was you know
- 27:21one of our favorite people aaron asher him a shout out because he's a great
- 27:25filmmaker himself and he said you know i just want you guys to watch.
- 27:29So, you know, 10 minutes in color and make sure that you're committing to this black and white.
- 27:35And as soon as we watched it, I mean, I think, you know, I called my producers
- 27:40and we all looked at it and went like, no, this is this doesn't because the
- 27:45laundromat doesn't look as good, you know, in color.
- 27:49There's not a lot going on. There's just ugly yellows and things like that.
- 27:52And it looked much, much better in black and white.
- 27:55But we will be releasing a color version at some point.
- 27:58So it was much more like fantastical and
- 28:01black and white you really like it i think anyway
- 28:04my eyes get like sucked into this
- 28:07world when it's that when it's this you know
- 28:09kind of black and white beautiful land you
- 28:13know yeah yeah and and
- 28:16honestly crust didn't look as good in color crust
- 28:20the pup the the actual puppet
- 28:23man by a real muppeteer rachel burson didn't look
- 28:27as good in color as it did in black and white
- 28:30so and she was all you know that was
- 28:33all practical we only have i think literally one
- 28:36vfx shot in the entire movie so wow there you
- 28:39go yeah i'm so like does crust do the festival circuit with y'all no we're oh
