woody can help. thank you, woody, for being here. >> thank you. so we're going to talk a little bit about carville by the sea today. carville was a unique community out on the edge of san francisco. as you can see by the slide, it was made up of old street cars and horse cars that people used for residences, bars, restaurants, clubhouses. it had its peak in the 1890's, around the turn of the century. i should mention that you see this is a color shot. none of these photos were originally colorized. i essentially put color in there for the book just to make it pop a little bit. so don't be fooled. before we get started i'd like to talk about the organization that i helped found 10 years ago, the western neighborhoods project dedicated to the history of western san francisco. we have a very popular website, outsidelands.org where we have old photos, stories, over 15,000 messages put up by people remembering their time in the richmond district, the sunset district, west of twin peaks. i couldn't fit everything into a book so i decided to have a littl

so, i go over and i go, "hey, woody, how are you doing, buddy?"oh my gosh!" it was really interesting. really weird. but yeah, i was like, "okay." but then i saw him recently 'cause he plays -- you know, he plays the clarinet. >> oh yes. >> jimmy: amazing. >> yeah. >> jimmy: and he's really cool. he's like in a new orleans jazz type of ensemble. and he's playing. and -- you know, he kept all these different notes out of it, he goes up, tenor, and then low and screams, the clarinet. so i saw him afterward and i go, "that's crazy there are so many different sounds you can get out of a clarinet." and he goes -- >> who are you? >> jimmy: yeah, exactly. who are you. and he goes -- i go, you go down and you go up. and he goes, "every time i brought it up, that was for you." oh, yeah, get out of here. yeah right, yeah. >> but that's nice, that's very nice. >> jimmy: he's a nice guy. >> he seemed to know who you were. >> jimmy: yeah, he actually pretended to know who i was. it was very nice. you also have a big passion for science, which i think is intere

there are many cultural figures, too, talk about that had a lot of impact i think on the country, woodyguthrie who in this land is your land is a member of the party when he wrote that song, not schoolchildren here when they sing the song. there were other figures like i think martin luther king jr. was a radical and called himself a space socialist read he definitely wanted a system that was much more friendly to the poor and workers than to people that owned factories and companies, and in fact his program would now be attacked by most democrats and republicans. he wanted guaranteed jobs, he wanted guaranteed income, he wanted government sponsored health insurance, and also he wanted american strength overseas to be rolled back almost as much as ron paul does. so if you think about the socialist like debs, a private like kings and we honor the national holiday, you think of the cultural figures like woody guthrie, like dr. zeus who i write about in the notebook was a member of the popular front, 1930's and 40's, the cultural formation by the communist party but not controlled by, the

you think about social figures like woody guthrie. like -- seuss, -- dr. who was a member of the popular front in the 1930s and '40s. a social formation formed by the communist party but not controlled by it an impressive list of people. even though their influence on politics has not been as powerful as the influence on the culture. >> host: what does the term progressivism mean? >> guest: the original term was ideology, a faith, if you will, of a lot of perform areas in the early part of the 20th 20th century. people like woodrow wilson, jane adams, people who believed that american society had become less democratic and less efficient, with the rise of being business. and they wanted to adjust the structure of society so they would serve the majority of the people better. the progressive era led by progressives, of course, we have to thank for that, the federal reserve system, some government regulation of banking and finances, the 16th, 17th, and 18th amendments for populist senators and income tax and for prohibition as well, which was to moralize soc

here's woody harrelson, high think stole the show, as well as joanne moore. he played steve schmitt. at this point in the movie the prep for sarah palin's debate with joe biden is not going well at all, and schmitt has a new approach. >> what we need you to do is to memorize 25 answers and four tag lines. do you think you can do that? >> yeah, i can do that. >> on the subject of nuclear iran, senator o'biden and i are most likely in agreement. they cannot be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons, period. it was ronald reagan who said that freedom is always just one generation away from extinction. we don't pass it to our children in the bloodstream, and there is only one man in this race who has really ever fought for you, and that's senator john mccain. chris: wow. that's the prep in the movie. now watch the actual debate as it happened. >> it was ronald reagan who said that freedom is always just one generation away from extinction. we don't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. we will fight for it. and there is only one man in this race who has really

on that speech it was a moment where woody harrelson says we can win and i remember the first time in this race, this worked. this person is talented at a level above and beyond and one of the great convention speeches anyone in any party has ever given and she is -- one of the things the movie showed is how extraordinarily talented she is and the ability to connect with people that is singular and american politics. i was talking to a colleague who had seen it in new york and was on the campaign and she said it makes me remember why we liked her so much. at the beginning. >> is it true or heard teleprompter broke? >> it did. and it rolled over a couple of lines. i had the experience of working with arnold schwarzenegger and he was meticulous in his preparation for a speech and he would go through 100 run throughs and he couldn't see the teleprompter in his 2004 convention speech. was blocked out by all of the signs and during the prep for her speech i said at the beginning we are going to practice this speech. not 10 times or 20 times. but 100 times. i was amazed at the capacity of p

and julianne moore -- woody harrelson was a dream actor. you always see -- i haven't seen a movie i haven't liked woody harrelson. one last point. we did not want to make a propaganda piece. we had no interest in not telling the best story we could tell of all the players and respectful to these people as human beings trying to do the best they could. no heroes or villains. do the best they could but against a series of complexities and against each other in a way that doomed them to this dysfunction. you can't do that without the greatest possible actor that i cast three of my favorite actors because i believe i needed you to go in with them and experience this with them and the most empathetic possible way and that was our bowl all the way down the line with every character. >> i want to lodge a complaint. julianne moore, sarah palin. scenes and ferry would test someone so much less handsome than steve in the movie. >> so noted. this comes from someone on twitter. i would like you to hansard afterwards. given attacks by his own people on

woody harrelson, ed harris as john mccain, he's great. he even had his walk down.er portrayal as sarah palin. hits it out of the park because as a person watching this and someone who lived through the history of this as a journalist, it made sarah palin seem very compassionate as a mother, but it also showed a lot of openings in the armor of her as a politician. and that she might not have been prepared to be thrust on to the world stage in such an important role and in such a fast way. is that the take away for most people out of the film? >> well, i think a lot of people who have seen the film have been surprised about how sympathetic they are towards sarah palin, particularly what she was going through. which, you know, based on exactly what you were just saying, you know, a politician who was basically a local politician, a mayor of a small town. governor of the state of alaska for just 18 months. and then overnight thrust into the national stage right in the heat of a presidential election. nothing more challenging than that. it was difficult for her. >> her

when i was covering the 2008 campaign, and there is a scene early on where steve schmidt played by woodyaralson is surrounded by a mob of reporters shouting questions at him. >> uh-huh. >> and, you know, i talked to steve schmidt at the republican convention, and he was very agitated about what he saw as a media putting sarah palin under siege, printing or repeating or asking about every rumor and smear, as he put it. >> she claimed as mayor she tried to ban backs. is that true? >> what about the allegations that trig is not really her child? >> did she attend the church where they speak in tongues? >> there was no mob scene of reporters, so that scene didn't actually take place. >> you know, that did take place for him during the campaign. there was different times that he was getting cornered by reporters during different phases of that convention. >> put that all together into one scene? >> exactly. that's part of the dramaization process. we're taking 60 days and we're narrowing it down into a two-hour period. now, during the convention was when all of the stories started to break ab
