Hear the full conversation via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, TuneIn, or your favorite podcasting app. And I’ve never felt freer or more excited about my work than I do right now.” Let’s have those private conversations in public.’ The only way that the culture changes is if we have the courage and the bravery to do that and to show people that you can do it and you can survive and not just survive, you can thrive. Oftentimes, it’s literally two different personas. – “Let’s note the fact that there is a chasm right now between what people are willing to say in their kitchen tables, in the comfort and the trust of their most loved ones, their family – and then what they’re willing to say on Twitter. – Leadership is key: “All of this would change if the people that are charged with upholding, you know, the mission of these institutions, which took decades and decades, sometimes longer than that to build, stood up and said ‘No.’ Stood up and said, ‘if you think an op-ed literally causes violence, maybe journalism isn’t the right career for you.’ Until we see that happen, I think we’re going to continue to see a lot of these institutions hemorrhaging the people who don’t fall in line with the new woke orthodoxy.” And so if an institution – whose job it is to uphold, let’s say, liberalism broadly defined – decides not to do that anymore, why should it be a surprise, then, that that institution becomes illiberal?” – “As we have learned from the Trump administration, institutions are just people. And you and I both know there doesn’t need to be an edict from the C-suite in order for people to feel that. And they are narrowing, in a radical way, what’s acceptable to say and what isn’t. –“What’s going on is the transformation of this sense-making institutions of American life. And so what happens is a kind of internal self-censorship.” Here are four of her key points: “You and I both know, and it would be delusional to claim otherwise,” she said, “that touching your finger to an increasing number of subjects that have been deemed ‘third rail’ by the mainstream institutions and increasingly by some of the tech companies will lead to reputational damage perhaps you losing your job your children sometimes being demonized as well. Her concerns have to do with “self-censorship” triggered by small but vocal groups and powerful but cowardly leaders. “Thought crimes” are top of mind for Weiss. She gives us something to think about.In her pitch for Common Sense, Weiss wrote, “There are tens of millions of Americans who aren’t on the hard left or the hard right who feel that the world has gone mad.” So how has the world gone mad? That’s one of the first things I asked her. She lets the performers and the sharp script do the speaking, and gives us something larger than comedy. Penny Marshall directs with an uncharacteristically subdued hand, employing no camera tricks or overblown music here. Jared Rushton adds a shake of pepper to the role of his friend Billy, and Elizabeth Perkins looks appropriately bewildered by it all as the reluctant love interest. David Moscow, playing the young Josh Baskin, is a terrific counterpart for Hanks. There are other fine performances here as well. There's a profound innocence about him - that innocence makes him both vulnerable and irresistibly charming. He's not merely imitating the mannerisms of an awkward 12-year-old. The scene in which he spends a night alone in a seedy New York motel, fidgeting until he breaks into tears, makes his situation gut-wrenchingly believable. Tom Hanks, who would go on a few years later to win back-to-back Oscars for Philadelphia (1993) and Forrest Gump (1994), delivers such a performance here. Both do something intelligent and inventive with that premise, and both are grounded by strong, earnest performances that make the incredible seem credible. There aren't very many funny movies about people who get magically transplanted into somebody else's body the premise is a stale one by now, having shouldered more beatings under Hollywood's bullwhip than the proverbial dead horse.
