Fun items about it

  1. fun, about Richard Jewell: Paul Walter Hauser was a guest and recited A Few Good Men past the code red, continuing through the officer on deck; Sean says he can do it too.
    “He started doing like this, the extended a few good men recitation, like we had done, the normal code red stuff, and then he just kept going”

  2. fun, about Richard Jewell: Hauser's home scene with Kathy Bates sells the age of the relationship with comfort alone, and the film cooks whenever Jewell, Rockwell and Bates share a room.
    “these 3 people are amazingly comfortable with each other.”
