WEBVTT

00:00.031 --> 00:02.775
[SPEAKER_02]: And hello, movie lovers, and welcome to show.

00:02.795 --> 00:07.763
[SPEAKER_02]: So today, Ross and I are going to be reviewing the movie I swear, and yes, I do swear online.

00:08.244 --> 00:13.392
[SPEAKER_02]: But this is going to be a movie that I think you guys will really enjoy.

00:13.812 --> 00:16.977
[SPEAKER_02]: We have a pleasure of actually getting a spirit of coffee from Sony.

00:16.957 --> 00:22.809
[SPEAKER_02]: to be able to view this movie, but Rossi, I know that you want to talk about which rents is.

00:22.829 --> 00:31.086
[SPEAKER_02]: In fact, this is about this based on the true story about a guy named John John has for rent, I'll break down this enough since few minutes.

00:31.106 --> 00:35.775
[SPEAKER_02]: But Rossi, I'll let you go ahead and talk about what threats is so that way people can be more aware of it.

00:36.025 --> 00:58.084
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, so you guys direct as a nervous system disorder, you tend to have ticks, which is any type of eye movement, face movement, mouth movement, it can also be very verbal, you have no control of of those ticks, it they found it to be kind of maybe genetic.

00:58.064 --> 01:06.867
[SPEAKER_00]: There is no cure for it, but they have found, you know, they've come a long way, they've found devices that can kind of help, but there is no cure at the moment.

01:07.629 --> 01:13.845
[SPEAKER_00]: So you can have screaming outbursts, curse, say inappropriate things, and...

01:13.825 --> 01:17.172
[SPEAKER_00]: it's sad because there's nothing you could do about it.

01:17.633 --> 01:32.442
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's, you know, you really want to be educated, you know, about Tourette's because if you run into someone like that and you don't know, you're thinking that they're being very inappropriate and it can lead to a lot of problems, but it is really sad to have something like that.

01:32.810 --> 01:33.411
[SPEAKER_02]: It really is.

01:33.631 --> 01:38.820
[SPEAKER_02]: It's sad to not have control over your own thoughts or emotions and then you just are random outbursts.

01:38.840 --> 01:41.024
[SPEAKER_02]: You appear a reason and I hope you're all over it.

01:41.585 --> 01:41.705
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.

01:41.725 --> 01:47.595
[SPEAKER_00]: And you tend to be like, oh, I'm sorry, you tend to be OCD, you know, a hyperactive disorder.

01:47.635 --> 01:51.181
[SPEAKER_00]: You tend to have a lot of those issues because of the Tourette.

01:51.241 --> 01:51.882
[SPEAKER_00]: So,

01:51.862 --> 01:54.686
[SPEAKER_00]: And like John said, we'll get into it tomorrow with this film.

01:55.247 --> 01:58.131
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, because they actually do break it down really well with this.

01:58.551 --> 01:58.631
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

01:58.652 --> 02:02.156
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's also very respectful towards anyone that has Tourette's.

02:02.497 --> 02:02.697
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

02:02.797 --> 02:05.581
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, so that's something else I really enjoyed about this film.

02:06.122 --> 02:07.884
[SPEAKER_02]: But let me go ahead and break this down.

02:07.965 --> 02:11.089
[SPEAKER_02]: So I swear it's a biological drama.

02:11.209 --> 02:21.143
[SPEAKER_02]: Based on a true story of John Davidson, a Scottish man who became a

02:21.123 --> 02:29.177
[SPEAKER_02]: from struggling teenager in the 1980s, we're an adult managing and in voluntary ticks as soon as they am bullying.

02:29.918 --> 02:46.607
[SPEAKER_02]: So what I want to talk about is this, I love the fact that this is actually in the early 80s and it opens up with blue Monday, but I also like how there's like some type of distortion with it because I actually feel like within the distortion itself, it actually feels like how

02:46.587 --> 02:50.270
[SPEAKER_02]: John's body is actually just as distorted as that song is.

02:50.471 --> 03:00.540
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's actually a representation of his character and that's something I really love was the placement of the song and the distortion of the song and about how they cut it.

03:00.800 --> 03:03.723
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was very perfectly placed.

03:04.664 --> 03:11.591
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought that that was really good and then this is also a time before anyone even knew which rest was and knew how to handle it.

03:12.411 --> 03:13.152
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.

03:14.228 --> 03:14.970
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no.

03:15.572 --> 03:18.198
[SPEAKER_00]: The film opening up, I agree with you on that.

03:18.379 --> 03:21.908
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, John's family didn't know that he had to read.

03:23.392 --> 03:25.919
[SPEAKER_00]: He was maybe 11, 12 years old.

03:27.082 --> 03:29.227
[SPEAKER_00]: He comes from this really small town in Scotland.

03:29.789 --> 03:30.972
[SPEAKER_00]: So,

03:30.952 --> 03:33.396
[SPEAKER_00]: no one in that town knows of it.

03:33.496 --> 03:36.681
[SPEAKER_00]: And so when you see him, you notice that he's doing little things.

03:36.701 --> 03:40.727
[SPEAKER_00]: Did you notice that John little movements, you know, net movements.

03:40.747 --> 03:45.174
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know, I think his family thought he was messing around.

03:45.214 --> 03:52.366
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know, as it progresses, you notice that he's losing more control and they don't know.

03:52.406 --> 03:54.529
[SPEAKER_00]: And what's sad about it is.

03:54.509 --> 04:08.168
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, him playing soccer and having no control and he was a really good soccer player, him having no control over this, his mom and dad doesn't know, they felt he was drawing a game and his dad was really invested in him playing soccer.

04:08.188 --> 04:09.049
[SPEAKER_00]: He was a good athlete.

04:09.790 --> 04:20.145
[SPEAKER_00]: I felt really sorry for him because he didn't even know what was going on or what it was and you would notice that he would try to control it.

04:20.125 --> 04:30.302
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, to where he would mention that he's exhausted at times because it is exhausting trying to control ticks or movements like that.

04:30.342 --> 04:31.544
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a lot.

04:32.165 --> 04:34.008
[SPEAKER_00]: I've felt bad for him.

04:34.028 --> 04:36.733
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a really good film though, but I really felt bad for him.

04:37.068 --> 05:03.244
[SPEAKER_02]: I did too because here's a thing, he said it was really like putting on a mask and trying to figure out how to control the ticks and as someone that has ADHD, I try to control myself to where people don't know why I have ADHD and it's also exhausting, so I can relate on that kind of level with him, but I don't, but here's the thing, I can actually control my, my, well, I am in pulse of sometimes by.

05:03.342 --> 05:09.953
[SPEAKER_02]: There's thing with him, he's not able to really have that control and stuff which makes you even feel more for him.

05:09.973 --> 05:11.556
[SPEAKER_02]: And yes, he is a great athlete.

05:11.636 --> 05:13.840
[SPEAKER_02]: We actually see that all in the soccer field.

05:13.860 --> 05:16.865
[SPEAKER_02]: His father had a scout that was coming down to see him.

05:17.226 --> 05:21.032
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, and then he's like, John, what the hell are you doing?

05:21.473 --> 05:22.635
[SPEAKER_02]: What are you doing?

05:23.437 --> 05:27.223
[SPEAKER_02]: And he thinks he's just throwing the game like you said, Rossi, and then you have to dinner table.

05:27.693 --> 05:42.867
[SPEAKER_02]: Huh, and stuff he actually spits on his dad spits up the food on his dad and his dad thinks he's doing it on purpose and the thing is John is not even realizing what's even going on his own self and his own body and they're over there criticizing and judging him, making him go.

05:43.218 --> 06:00.457
[SPEAKER_02]: away from the table, where the fireplaces, it is just sad to see him so isolated from his own family, right, and stuff that you would think that they would actually be more caring, but at the same time though, you actually have to remember this is a time in place before the research, proper research was for threats.

06:01.098 --> 06:12.010
[SPEAKER_02]: So they didn't know how to control the narrative of how to go about this, and it's a lot to take in, especially with the father and the, and then also to his sisters too,

06:11.990 --> 06:15.216
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, it just broke my heart to see him go through that.

06:15.618 --> 06:21.925
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I felt like I could relate to him in a way because I don't know if you know, but I have, I have epilepsy.

06:22.766 --> 06:25.269
[SPEAKER_00]: And I had epilepsy as a little girl.

06:25.389 --> 06:30.654
[SPEAKER_00]: I was diagnosed with my sister and we're like four or five years old and no one knew what that was.

06:30.714 --> 06:44.089
[SPEAKER_00]: So for me watching a film was, although, you know, my situation was something where I could grow out of it after a teenager in my 20s, or you can have it, you know, for the rest of your life, you know,

06:44.069 --> 07:03.765
[SPEAKER_00]: But at the time I had it, you know, I had grandma seizures, so I could be at school and passing out on the concrete and scaring the other little kids because they don't know what's going on and I remember, you know, trying to control that because there's a feeling that you get when you're getting ready to have a seizure and.

07:04.437 --> 07:28.555
[SPEAKER_00]: trying to control it because you're at school or you're somewhere public and I remember I would go hide somewhere if I knew it was coming on because it was embarrassing you know and and kids tend to look at you weird you know when you come back to school the next day what happened why you know what I mean so I it really hit me you know hit home with me because being in school I remember being got that like that.

07:28.535 --> 07:32.221
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, or, you know, John was very big on his not a disability.

07:32.261 --> 07:35.126
[SPEAKER_00]: Do not say I have a disability and I remember being like that.

07:35.146 --> 07:36.829
[SPEAKER_00]: Like it's it's not a disability.

07:36.849 --> 07:44.262
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just something that you can't control is it, you know, a brain something with your brain that's just not working together.

07:44.282 --> 07:48.349
[SPEAKER_00]: So it this movie really really just was.

07:48.329 --> 07:49.310
[SPEAKER_00]: Wow for me.

07:49.631 --> 07:50.692
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, same here for me.

07:50.912 --> 08:08.155
[SPEAKER_02]: It was a wild moment for me even if I don't have to rest you if you have some type of Learn disability or anything like that you could relate to it in some kind of way Which I really appreciate what this film and you know another thing to it is like one day He was just an almost kid and then they see know what he wakes up.

08:08.275 --> 08:13.442
[SPEAKER_02]: He's trying to read a book He can't even do that in class at first you're thinking okay, so you haven't some type of speech

08:13.422 --> 08:20.910
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, the problem or something at first and then you realize, oh snap, he's got Tourettes, there's something more going on here.

08:21.811 --> 08:27.396
[SPEAKER_02]: But another thing too is I don't know if you were doing this or not It's like should I be laughing or should I not be laughing?

08:28.117 --> 08:30.219
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I was pushing my own to go.

08:30.560 --> 08:37.827
[SPEAKER_02]: But like how does movie does a smart thing here where you're seeing him in the group there, people are later on in the film.

08:38.195 --> 08:46.747
[SPEAKER_02]: And he's even saying it, it's okay to laugh because I even left my own self on some of the things I see and do, but there are moments that you're not supposed to laugh.

08:47.769 --> 08:47.869
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

08:47.889 --> 09:06.075
[SPEAKER_02]: And I get that and I like how they bring that balance here because it's making me check my own motives of like in my should I be laughing sure I not be laughing and the parts that where people are criticizing them those are the parts that I don't laugh at, but the parts that I see him laughing at himself and stuff is the parts that I find funny.

09:06.460 --> 09:14.713
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, I think the interactions with Dot, I think a lot of their interactions, it was funny, you know, and I must say this.

09:14.853 --> 09:16.355
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought it was the sweetest thing.

09:16.395 --> 09:17.557
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if you were feeling this.

09:17.837 --> 09:26.731
[SPEAKER_00]: I think we talked about it when he first met Dot and her family dot son is Murray ends up reconnecting with John a little bit later as they got older.

09:27.272 --> 09:31.438
[SPEAKER_00]: So he became a familiar face around Dot's house.

09:31.418 --> 09:36.907
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, he was getting something out of that household that he wasn't getting at his household.

09:36.947 --> 09:43.117
[SPEAKER_00]: And his mom, I feel for her because you're dealing with something that you don't know what it is.

09:43.157 --> 09:48.786
[SPEAKER_00]: The people around town doesn't know what it is and it's very embarrassing and it can be texting as well.

09:49.171 --> 10:07.819
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, but, you know, when he, when he was in a kitchen with what God and she said, you know, you know, John unfortunately one thing that we don't do around here is say sorry, you know, you're not going to say sorry and I love that because if you notice he'd always be immediately I'm sorry.

10:08.380 --> 10:08.720
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sorry.

10:08.801 --> 10:10.403
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm so sorry for that.

10:10.383 --> 10:10.784
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

10:10.804 --> 10:16.501
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just the, for me, in this way, I didn't like it this month so much and I understand it's a different area of stuff like that.

10:16.923 --> 10:17.043
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.

10:17.063 --> 10:22.800
[SPEAKER_02]: But you're putting them through abuse in a sense of always having to apologize for something that he can't control.

10:22.861 --> 10:23.683
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

10:24.085 --> 10:44.126
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like 13 years later, I was thinking myself, shouldn't you know something more about your son within those 13 years period, just even though Tores is kind of new, but at the same time though, was there then you do know a research on him or even with that, it took his friend's mom, Doddy, which is the most caring woman.

10:44.146 --> 10:46.989
[SPEAKER_02]: She's just diagnosed with cancer right out loud, right?

10:47.149 --> 10:53.856
[SPEAKER_02]: And she takes him in and you know what, you mentioned this in the backstage area about this

10:53.836 --> 11:01.687
[SPEAKER_02]: He's inside the bathroom and he's he's like kind of keep himself together, keep himself calming.

11:01.707 --> 11:06.934
[SPEAKER_02]: He doesn't want to screw anything up because of the fact that he likes his friend.

11:06.974 --> 11:10.439
[SPEAKER_02]: He doesn't want to not not not have friends because he knows what it's like not to have friends.

11:11.120 --> 11:17.429
[SPEAKER_02]: And then his anxiety is going to fix our happening and then the mayor happens.

11:17.489 --> 11:18.510
[SPEAKER_02]: He breaks the mayor.

11:19.705 --> 11:22.780
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm like, this is it, it's over me too.

11:22.860 --> 11:28.045
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like this, this poor guy just found great friend, great family.

11:28.227 --> 11:55.922
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's he broke the mirror, you know, and I think for him, you know, with him, the more nervous he gets if he's in an uncomfortable situation, it's like the ticks got even more increased, you know, it didn't be more, you know, he'd have more outburst and him and that bathroom trying to control himself and to keep it together, breaking the mirror, you know, leaving the house just kind of, you know, you know, you know, let me go.

11:55.902 --> 12:01.889
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, go take a cigarette and come in out and and like what are you doing?

12:01.929 --> 12:16.948
[SPEAKER_00]: And the conversation that they have, I fell in love with her and I do want to agree with you though about them on you are very true 13 years later you you didn't nothing changed, you know, I I felt like she was

12:17.317 --> 12:20.603
[SPEAKER_00]: looking at him as as it was a disability.

12:20.623 --> 12:21.845
[SPEAKER_00]: He was never going to get over it.

12:21.885 --> 12:24.830
[SPEAKER_00]: There was like she wasn't she's exhausted.

12:24.870 --> 12:26.073
[SPEAKER_00]: She's tired by this time.

12:26.493 --> 12:30.220
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that if he would have stayed home, there would have been no room for growth.

12:30.561 --> 12:31.683
[SPEAKER_00]: There would have been no job.

12:31.863 --> 12:34.768
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, she was looking at him like

12:34.748 --> 12:37.653
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, I need to keep you inside kind of.

12:38.234 --> 12:41.760
[SPEAKER_00]: And with God, it was like a whole new world opened up for him.

12:41.840 --> 12:43.403
[SPEAKER_00]: He actually did so much with her.

12:43.923 --> 12:46.728
[SPEAKER_00]: She was so kind and she dealt with mental illness.

12:46.828 --> 12:51.095
[SPEAKER_00]: And I love that she was really curious about what medication are you on.

12:51.116 --> 12:52.578
[SPEAKER_00]: Remember she wanted to know immediately.

12:53.039 --> 12:55.002
[SPEAKER_00]: What are you taking because his mom was just

12:54.982 --> 12:55.963
[SPEAKER_00]: Take the medication.

12:56.023 --> 12:57.445
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not going to look for nothing new.

12:57.785 --> 12:59.347
[SPEAKER_00]: This is what you need to do with Dodd.

12:59.387 --> 13:01.510
[SPEAKER_00]: It was, no, let's look at this.

13:01.690 --> 13:03.712
[SPEAKER_00]: And she knew about the medication he was taking.

13:03.773 --> 13:06.255
[SPEAKER_00]: So telling me to stop that, you know?

13:06.296 --> 13:07.397
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.

13:07.477 --> 13:09.660
[SPEAKER_02]: In a way though, it's kind of like tough love.

13:09.680 --> 13:12.163
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like, you don't always need to be on medication.

13:12.863 --> 13:13.104
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.

13:13.244 --> 13:15.927
[SPEAKER_02]: Medication is not the answer to this.

13:16.531 --> 13:17.933
[SPEAKER_02]: You need to have some self-control.

13:17.994 --> 13:25.847
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll let you be on the medicine for now, but let's try and come out with some calming ground some type of way to where you can deal with this.

13:26.849 --> 13:29.814
[SPEAKER_02]: And then there's even this time, but there's other moment in the supermarket.

13:30.215 --> 13:33.661
[SPEAKER_02]: But I was actually surprised because she was up.

13:34.042 --> 13:36.186
[SPEAKER_02]: He was up smacking Doddy in the face.

13:36.546 --> 13:39.231
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, that's over.

13:39.211 --> 13:41.376
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought she was going to be like, we're done.

13:41.416 --> 13:42.538
[SPEAKER_02]: Right, me too.

13:42.839 --> 13:45.685
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, she goes, well, maybe I shouldn't have just stood on the opposite side of you.

13:45.845 --> 13:46.105
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

13:46.386 --> 13:47.629
[SPEAKER_02]: And she just kind of joked with them.

13:48.090 --> 13:49.112
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, yeah.

13:49.132 --> 13:50.434
[SPEAKER_02]: Dang, this woman is tough.

13:50.455 --> 13:51.316
[SPEAKER_02]: She got cancer.

13:51.717 --> 13:56.427
[SPEAKER_02]: She has a kid and she's willing to, here's the thing.

13:56.643 --> 13:57.525
[SPEAKER_02]: that like about her.

13:57.986 --> 14:05.381
[SPEAKER_02]: Even though she has her own problems, she's putting her needs before his and that is something that he didn't have at his own home.

14:05.902 --> 14:13.698
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, you know, and that's something and then even when something doesn't quite work out for him, she's still there for him.

14:14.400 --> 14:14.500
[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.

14:14.986 --> 14:16.549
[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely unconditional love.

14:16.750 --> 14:22.422
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, you couldn't you can ask for anything more, you know, and he needed that he really needed that guidance.

14:22.442 --> 14:34.328
[SPEAKER_00]: And remember he always wants people, you know, about wood side is best to stand on him because he knows that one arm is just it's it's it's it's a problem.

14:34.308 --> 14:36.511
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm so sorry.

14:38.694 --> 14:58.341
[SPEAKER_00]: Like when he had Tommy's dog and Tommy's dog, if you ever, if you ever hit my dog again, I'll have to kill you, you know, and you know, honestly, didn't you feel that times you were nervous for other people because he couldn't control it and so like with the dog for instance.

14:58.321 --> 15:01.505
[SPEAKER_00]: As soon as he walked in there, I was like, Well, the interview, yeah.

15:02.085 --> 15:07.652
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, for the interview, I saw that dog, him making the tea, and I didn't know what was gonna go wrong.

15:08.753 --> 15:12.718
[SPEAKER_02]: Me too, I was like, you know, he's gonna burn, he has a future boss.

15:13.118 --> 15:13.378
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

15:13.819 --> 15:15.681
[SPEAKER_02]: Or something was gonna happen with the dog.

15:15.741 --> 15:18.024
[SPEAKER_02]: I felt like the dog, because I'm in dog lover.

15:18.604 --> 15:19.185
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

15:19.205 --> 15:21.047
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like I'm like, I don't get me wrong.

15:21.067 --> 15:23.670
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel bad if he burns his boss, right?

15:24.311 --> 15:24.732
[SPEAKER_02]: The dog?

15:25.292 --> 15:26.033
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

15:26.013 --> 15:29.420
[SPEAKER_02]: And then he tells him if you do that again, I'm going to kill you myself.

15:29.760 --> 15:30.081
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.

15:30.742 --> 15:35.011
[SPEAKER_02]: And then it gives him the ground rules of like, okay, I don't need to do what I just did.

15:35.471 --> 15:35.612
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.

15:35.632 --> 15:37.435
[SPEAKER_02]: Because there's going to be repercussions later on.

15:37.836 --> 15:41.423
[SPEAKER_02]: And I also like how he thinks he screwed up the whole entire interview.

15:42.112 --> 15:43.134
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

15:43.154 --> 15:47.180
[SPEAKER_02]: It goes stupid, stupid, keeps on slapping himself, right?

15:47.260 --> 15:55.272
[SPEAKER_02]: But I'm not going to go into spoiler territory with this point, but there's one certain, this, this scene that happens later on, there's two things that happens.

15:55.613 --> 16:02.263
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a celebration, not just for John, but also for another character in this film.

16:02.497 --> 16:04.643
[SPEAKER_02]: And it is just fantastic.

16:04.843 --> 16:12.323
[SPEAKER_02]: I will felt just as much tears of joy for both of us, both of these characters, right?

16:12.965 --> 16:15.291
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, I cried throughout this film.

16:15.492 --> 16:17.738
[SPEAKER_00]: I cried tears of happiness.

16:17.718 --> 16:21.983
[SPEAKER_00]: I cried with John, you know, I cried with God.

16:22.084 --> 16:27.450
[SPEAKER_00]: This film was just so touching and you know, just that thought of doing a film about Tourette's.

16:27.931 --> 16:28.351
[SPEAKER_00]: You know what I mean?

16:28.372 --> 16:29.934
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't think about those type of things.

16:29.954 --> 16:36.302
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't realize that people are dealing with so many type of different disabilities or whatever you want to call it.

16:36.322 --> 16:38.224
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, but you never think about Tourette's.

16:38.204 --> 16:51.631
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember watching like a true life on MTV years ago, years ago, and that one of their episodes was I have Tourette's, and that's the first time I've ever heard about it, and it featured young adults dealing with Tourette's.

16:52.092 --> 16:57.883
[SPEAKER_00]: So to see them have a movie about John Davis and his life,

16:57.863 --> 17:16.193
[SPEAKER_00]: was just like I thought it was brilliant because you just it's kind of like a very thing that you don't talk about you know I appreciate it that you learn so much about it I do want to mention though he's very smart he's a very smart guy he's a good worker you know most people I think

17:16.173 --> 17:17.535
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't think past that.

17:17.735 --> 17:31.173
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, don't think maybe that a person with Tourette could reach the levels that John was able to reach, you know, to do well in school, all these other things because this is just such a core issue that they have, but no, he was very smart.

17:31.233 --> 17:32.374
[SPEAKER_00]: He was a very good worker.

17:32.935 --> 17:33.996
[SPEAKER_00]: He valued work.

17:34.297 --> 17:36.199
[SPEAKER_00]: He was very independent.

17:36.219 --> 17:39.944
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you, dot for that, you know, giving him independence.

17:40.325 --> 17:42.788
[SPEAKER_00]: His own place, you know, the first time didn't go well.

17:42.768 --> 17:47.344
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you know, I've got to take an advantage of thank god of sugar.

17:47.384 --> 17:53.807
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all I'm going to say, but you know, right.

17:54.648 --> 17:58.012
[SPEAKER_02]: But you know, what though, I like how dog doesn't judge him or criticize him.

17:58.032 --> 18:00.896
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, we had a little bump in the road.

18:01.297 --> 18:03.039
[SPEAKER_02]: It's okay to mess up.

18:03.059 --> 18:03.460
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

18:03.480 --> 18:05.422
[SPEAKER_02]: She doesn't say, oh, how dare you do this?

18:05.442 --> 18:07.645
[SPEAKER_02]: You're not going to be qualified to do this anymore.

18:07.985 --> 18:09.267
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm taking back my house.

18:09.507 --> 18:13.092
[SPEAKER_02]: No, she lets him be grown as a man and become a man.

18:13.673 --> 18:14.774
[SPEAKER_02]: And I also want to talk about this.

18:14.834 --> 18:16.457
[SPEAKER_02]: We talked about John's boss, right?

18:16.857 --> 18:17.117
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

18:17.518 --> 18:19.781
[SPEAKER_02]: So I like how the back and forth between them?

18:20.402 --> 18:20.622
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh.

18:21.192 --> 18:24.340
[SPEAKER_02]: And I like how John talks about his ticks, right?

18:25.122 --> 18:25.703
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

18:25.723 --> 18:28.330
[SPEAKER_02]: Because this is a lamp post if it's not straight.

18:28.670 --> 18:29.192
[SPEAKER_02]: That's right.

18:29.653 --> 18:33.302
[SPEAKER_02]: Running is here in the cross boiling water for times or else someone will die.

18:33.583 --> 18:34.405
[SPEAKER_02]: You're saying, I don't do that.

18:34.425 --> 18:35.287
[SPEAKER_02]: I think you're going to die.

18:35.507 --> 18:37.412
[SPEAKER_02]: Because what because what the F?

18:39.535 --> 18:40.035
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.

18:40.056 --> 18:40.656
[SPEAKER_02]: I just do it.

18:40.716 --> 18:42.858
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if you're going to die or not.

18:43.259 --> 18:43.999
[SPEAKER_02]: But I just do it.

18:44.740 --> 18:53.729
[SPEAKER_00]: I felt like it was a dad, you know, that he didn't have because being that, you know, John had these ticks, you know, his his dad couldn't.

18:53.809 --> 18:56.091
[SPEAKER_00]: He, I just found that just horrible.

18:56.472 --> 18:59.294
[SPEAKER_00]: That just, that just absolutely horrible.

18:59.435 --> 19:03.318
[SPEAKER_00]: And the way it was explained to him in the case, just this is what happened.

19:03.398 --> 19:04.660
[SPEAKER_00]: He's not coming home that.

19:05.821 --> 19:08.023
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know, as a kid,

19:08.003 --> 19:15.151
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, the last thing that happened was me with the soccer situation, so you're going to blame it on yourself.

19:15.632 --> 19:17.874
[SPEAKER_00]: John reached different levels in this life.

19:17.934 --> 19:19.116
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he did very well.

19:19.156 --> 19:30.889
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they, but I've been seeing the when he's going to meet the queen and he actually says the see what he told when he told you like,

19:30.869 --> 19:31.951
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, how did it go?

19:31.971 --> 19:37.500
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I call it an FN, you know, and and oh, John, no, you didn't.

19:38.041 --> 19:45.994
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I did, but by that point, obviously, you know, he had done speeches, he had been a bit of a bit of a council.

19:46.014 --> 19:48.978
[SPEAKER_00]: People knew about him, but who talks to the Queen like that?

19:49.259 --> 19:56.030
[SPEAKER_00]: The fact that out of all days, that's a day that you'd hope you would bust before you say anything and he couldn't help it.

19:56.370 --> 19:57.332
[SPEAKER_00]: He couldn't help it.

19:57.802 --> 20:27.066
[SPEAKER_02]: Because he's just nervous, and this is part of his nervous ticks, you know, but I just want to talk about this too, you know, just him having those nervous ticks of like, you know, of all days, it's going to happen now with the, with the queen right, but he was able to laugh it off because the queen was able to laugh it off, so he felt even more comfortable, but I also like how the fact he goes into the whole entire deal of I'm scared of libraries because they scared me because I have to be quiet.

20:27.046 --> 20:32.636
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, yes, you know, and yeah, could you never saw him go into libraries.

20:32.656 --> 20:35.250
[SPEAKER_00]: He liked noise the areas.

20:36.007 --> 20:38.230
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't blame him, I mean, could you imagine?

20:38.290 --> 20:39.953
[SPEAKER_00]: He already knew what it would be.

20:40.013 --> 20:41.415
[SPEAKER_00]: There's nothing he couldn't control it.

20:42.015 --> 20:43.377
[SPEAKER_00]: No one was gonna understand it.

20:43.478 --> 20:45.801
[SPEAKER_00]: It would have been another situation where he's in trouble.

20:46.261 --> 20:49.847
[SPEAKER_00]: He's being thrown out of a place or someone's misunderstanding a situation.

20:49.867 --> 20:55.715
[SPEAKER_00]: And even when he tried to explain, you know, I'm sorry, I can't control it, whatever.

20:56.856 --> 21:05.068
[SPEAKER_00]: When Dot came up with the idea, because of all that, or it was Tommy actually that came up with the idea of, why don't you educate people?

21:05.048 --> 21:07.734
[SPEAKER_00]: go to the police station, let them know what's going on.

21:08.135 --> 21:11.142
[SPEAKER_00]: Get out there, talk to people, because they don't know.

21:11.182 --> 21:22.669
[SPEAKER_00]: And that not knowing, you know, had gotten John Davison and a lot of problems in the movie, then you'll see those things that happens to him, absolutely, some things would just come on.

21:22.970 --> 21:23.871
[SPEAKER_00]: absolutely brutal.

21:24.432 --> 21:30.801
[SPEAKER_00]: But if people don't know that the insult that you threw at them was just a tick.

21:31.462 --> 21:33.305
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a problem that you couldn't control.

21:33.345 --> 21:34.486
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.

21:34.967 --> 21:47.104
[SPEAKER_00]: But being that no one knew that they took it as him starting shit like he started something or he's purposely being rude to women

21:47.084 --> 21:51.872
[SPEAKER_02]: He even said something to Doddy about being in a P-word, you know, and that about us, yes.

21:52.293 --> 21:52.534
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

21:53.235 --> 21:53.535
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

21:53.656 --> 21:57.202
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, and I also like how she repeats it back to him as well.

21:57.623 --> 21:59.446
[SPEAKER_02]: So I love that moment.

21:59.506 --> 22:03.553
[SPEAKER_02]: Then there's also a love the fact that he started his own support group.

22:03.573 --> 22:04.495
[SPEAKER_02]: We talked about that.

22:04.956 --> 22:06.358
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah.

22:06.338 --> 22:14.550
[SPEAKER_02]: But I love the fact that John is teaching others about his disability in one, I don't want to call it disability because he doesn't like to call it a disability.

22:15.071 --> 22:22.842
[SPEAKER_02]: But I like the fact that he's letting people know about the conditions that he has, and they're not alone.

22:23.483 --> 22:35.080
[SPEAKER_02]: And I love when the parents show up with this one girl that, and they're in the back seat of the car.

22:37.422 --> 22:37.882
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

22:38.363 --> 22:38.623
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

22:38.863 --> 22:39.204
[SPEAKER_00]: I died.

22:39.224 --> 22:40.144
[SPEAKER_02]: That was hilarious.

22:40.865 --> 22:43.307
[SPEAKER_02]: And the parents are like, should we go in the hand and stop this?

22:43.427 --> 22:44.829
[SPEAKER_02]: No, let's do this.

22:44.849 --> 22:45.990
[SPEAKER_02]: This is the process.

22:46.310 --> 22:46.931
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's just help.

22:47.591 --> 22:54.898
[SPEAKER_00]: The best scene of this poor girl who, too, is going through it hasn't met anyone by this point.

22:55.178 --> 22:57.020
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, John's name is getting out there.

22:57.480 --> 22:59.021
[SPEAKER_00]: Parents bring her to go meet John.

22:59.061 --> 23:00.223
[SPEAKER_00]: She doesn't want to get out the car.

23:00.283 --> 23:01.083
[SPEAKER_00]: He gets in a car.

23:01.744 --> 23:07.429
[SPEAKER_00]: And they just, the

23:07.409 --> 23:32.320
[SPEAKER_00]: She eventually became comfortable with them, but when they shoot the scene from outside of the car, and you just hear the two of them inside the car from the parents point of view, it was just great because you just heard them yelling all this stuff, saying all these things, I mean both of them, that was a really funny scene, but what happened from it, you know, helping the young lady to film more comfortable, you know, to yourself.

23:32.300 --> 23:40.930
[SPEAKER_00]: No, yeah, that you're not the only one and then come to find out when he has the group that he end up talking to you.

23:41.571 --> 23:50.061
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought that was a funny scene as well because he's trying to give a speech and he knows he understands he continues with the speech he'll take a time to like, you know, breather.

23:50.521 --> 24:01.294
[SPEAKER_00]: But you hear this room of the chatter the chatter the chatter I thought that was a funny scene, but a loving scene as well because

24:02.253 --> 24:16.335
[SPEAKER_00]: This group of kids came together and needed to see, I'm not the only one from where I'm from, you know, the education that the parents were able to get because remember parents that were dealing with this were isolated.

24:16.435 --> 24:18.058
[SPEAKER_00]: They felt like they were the only one.

24:18.098 --> 24:19.300
[SPEAKER_00]: So to come together.

24:19.668 --> 24:24.676
[SPEAKER_00]: and get rid of group of people that understand you and parents that they can talk to each stories with.

24:25.136 --> 24:31.907
[SPEAKER_00]: And even older people with Tourettes telling the younger people, here's some things that I do like the guy with the drummer.

24:32.648 --> 24:38.857
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, here's some things that I do to help me deal and help you get by and I thought that was just great.

24:38.917 --> 24:41.541
[SPEAKER_00]: And the dating, I always wondered about that.

24:41.601 --> 24:44.005
[SPEAKER_00]: What about how does dating happen for them?

24:44.407 --> 24:46.215
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what I was wondering too in this movie.

24:46.235 --> 24:47.018
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, doesn't he?

24:47.038 --> 24:49.629
[SPEAKER_02]: And I like the fact that they don't do a love interest for that.

24:49.649 --> 24:49.890
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

24:50.393 --> 24:54.028
[SPEAKER_02]: Because at first I was like, is this girl going to be the love interest for me too?

24:54.447 --> 24:56.471
[SPEAKER_02]: But I was also thinking the same thing as well.

24:56.491 --> 24:58.055
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, how does relationships happen?

24:58.095 --> 25:07.275
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you date someone that also has Tourette's who actually understands or do you go with somebody else that hopefully they understand your condition and be with them?

25:07.936 --> 25:08.217
[SPEAKER_02]: You know?

25:08.718 --> 25:09.119
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

25:09.139 --> 25:14.751
[SPEAKER_02]: Because you actually have to tell them, hey, look, I have Tourette sometimes I actually have loud outbursts and stuff.

25:14.731 --> 25:15.312
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

25:15.332 --> 25:16.994
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's how you have to do it.

25:17.334 --> 25:19.156
[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, I was wondering the whole thing.

25:19.196 --> 25:29.708
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, does he have, do they find someone with for each other or do they take someone normal or whatever, because it's just like getting your own self if you had that condition.

25:29.748 --> 25:30.349
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.

25:30.369 --> 25:34.474
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, but still, I really thought that movie was very well done.

25:35.215 --> 25:39.400
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was a perfect way of actually explaining to Rets.

25:39.420 --> 25:41.041
[SPEAKER_02]: And they also explained the science of it.

25:41.101 --> 25:42.443
[SPEAKER_02]: They break down the

25:42.423 --> 25:50.272
[SPEAKER_02]: of it and reading the books of Tourette's and learning how the handle someone that has Tourette's just as someone is also learning about their condition as well.

25:51.033 --> 26:04.589
