00:00 When was the last time you cried watching a movie?
00:02 Look at me just seeming like I'm dead inside.
00:07 I'm like trying to remember now.
00:11 Don't ask me that.
00:13 When was the last time I even watched a movie?
00:15 Oh, Parallel Mothers.
00:17 I cried at Parallel Mothers.
00:18 L.A.P. breaks down.
00:19 It's so beautiful.
00:20 So beautiful.
00:22 I am a crier.
00:23 I can't bear to see other people cry.
00:25 If I see someone cry, I will cry immediately.
00:28 Just the other night I re-watched Sleepless in Seattle.
00:31 So much of that movie is heartbreaking.
00:33 Zone of Interest.
00:34 About five minutes in, it just, yeah, I thought it was unbelievable.
00:38 That film was so powerful.
00:39 I cried watching Past Lives.
00:42 The bed scene when Greta's character, Nora, is in bed with her husband.
00:48 She says something like, "Are you asking me if you're the answer to my parents' immigrant dreams?"
00:53 It was like so funny.
00:54 You're asking me if you, Arthur Zataransky, are the answer to my family's immigrant dream?
01:00 Yeah.
01:02 Wow.
01:03 And then it went on for so long.
01:05 And then she says the line, like, "You're forgetting the part where I love you."
01:08 And the scene just went on for so long.
01:12 And it was so quiet.
01:13 And it was so beautiful.
01:14 It's like almost that point where you start to get uncomfortable.
01:18 And you're like, "I really wish the scene would end because I hate feeling this unkind."
01:23 And then it goes on just long enough to break you.
01:26 And I just started weeping.
01:27 And I was like, "Damn, that Celine song is good."
01:31 Like, she is an incredible director.
01:33 Just the confidence and the faith she put in what she had written and in her actors' performances.
01:40 And just what that scene became the longer you stayed in it moved me so deeply.
01:46 And I was, it broke me.
01:48 Cry all the time.
01:49 I can remember me and my youngest son watched Matilda not too long ago.
01:54 And it was his first time crying at a movie.
01:56 And so I cried because he was crying.
01:58 But this year, I think, I mean, I cried Holdovers.
02:01 I cried Saltburn.
02:04 I'm just kidding.
02:05 Nobody cries in Saltburn.
02:06 The last memorable time that I remember crying in a movie was a Bronx Tale.
02:11 It's so sweet.
02:13 I just love the idea that our movie even has that of bringing cultures together and how just so similar we are.
02:22 I think those kind of messages, we need to be pumping them through the speakers for the world of like,
02:29 "Stop the judgment. Stop all that other stuff."
02:32 We are literally the same thing inside.
02:35 Honestly, I bawled at Divine Joy Randolph in the Holdovers.
02:40 Her character is so self-possessed, so witty, so dry.
02:44 You know, she's just got a handle on everything.
02:46 And then she has that one moment, just hearing her saying like, "He's gone."
02:52 You know, and those words, the way that she held them, I just, I couldn't help it.
02:55 He's gone.
02:57 That just gut punched me so much, that moment that she had.
03:04 And like the way that she had built this character up to it.
03:07 And you know, it's there, you know, it's there.
03:08 And then there it is.
03:09 I wept at Capote. I really cried.
03:12 It was when the actor is about to go be executed.
03:16 I think it's Clifton Collins.
03:17 And you can just see the fear in his eyes.
03:19 And despite the fact that he's done this horrible thing,
03:21 you could just see how scared he was.
03:23 He did such an excellent job.
03:24 And that got me for whatever reason, it got me.
03:26 I also cried really, really hard at the end of Florida Project.
03:30 The kids running into Disneyland by themselves, it really, that one snuck up on me.
03:34 I didn't think I was going to cry so hard, but I cried really, really hard at that.
03:37 I'll cry discreetly on the airplane.
03:40 The last movie, probably past lives.
03:43 It was so messy that I couldn't really determine what it was about.
03:47 I was watching it and didn't really understand in the most beautiful way,
03:52 in the most poetic way, what, how, why, you know.
03:58 And that just wells up emotion because then it's like, well,
04:00 I feel that way in my life many times.
04:03 So I like when films can do that.
04:05 I wonder when was the last time.
04:06 I genuinely can't remember because I don't really cry that much.
04:09 You know, I feel like maybe I cried at a Spider-Verse.
04:11 What Miles says, like, just going to do me.
04:14 I think there's something about that that really moved me.
04:16 I think it was Passages by Arasax.
04:18 The vulnerability of everybody, the shining through of the personalities of everybody.
04:22 And I love, of course, Adele, Exa Shoopaloos and my wonderful partner, Franz Bogowski.
04:29 I found them all so touching.
04:30 The way they were acting, yeah, really did something to me.
