Movie Meltdown - Episode 155
This week we welcome our first special guest co-host to the coffee
shop! Join us as we get caffeinated and have an awesome
conversation with actress
Jess Weixler.
(Though she is quite humble about it) she was dubbed “The New Indie
Queen” by The New Yorker and has starred in “The Lie”, “Peter and
Vandy”, “The Big Bad Swim”, “Alexander the Last” and will
(hopefully not) forever be known as “the girl with the whatsees in
the....” from the infamous movie “Teeth”. Listen as we discuss
acting, all-around geekiness and cheese. Yes, cheese.
And as we come to the realization that
bad-ass never died!! We also mention...The
Juilliard
School, Michael Haneke,
Carlton the doorman, W.
Earl Brown,
losing general geek points, pouring a whisky and playing Angry
Birds, The Piano Teacher, cashew and almond, Atherton Rebels, using
your toothbrush as a microphone, having the wrong accent, surviving
the audition, John Waters,
Walden Theatre, a healthy fear of the ocean floor,
I do NOT promote bulimia, Shakespeare nerd, a new transatlantic
diction,
Chekhov,
having people tell you you are not doing good... a lot, you need to
remake that movie with ME!, I would see movies and I would feel
like I had been changed, talking in the back of your throat,
prevalence, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,
living in a shoebox, satire, I’m gonna be a star!!,
CalTech, vegan BLT,

of something that they did, tagged as a feminist movie, factory
farming is killing the world, Tree of Life, a rattlesnake in a
swaddling clothes, surfing in the morning, Jessica Chastain, being
big in Africa, Chinese superstore, that’s all you get for your
quarter, so in your experience with castration sex..., making

“I don’t know if there will ever come a time, even if I like become
some massive movie star with tons of Oscars, where they won’t be
like, ‘So Teeth?? Really? You made that movie?’”
