Announcers name not known therefore: A MD: Minnie Driver DD: David Duchovny BH: Bonnie Hunt

A: Now Minnie Driver is trying to muscle in on the barely any action genre with the new tearjerker RTM. Even more surprising is that she's matched up with everyone favourite alien hunting hard man, David Duchovny.

[Restaurant clip]

A: This is the story of two complete strangers who are thrown together by chance. It wasn't much method acting involved, as the two stars didn't have much of an idea about each other before they met.

MD: I'm not a real X-files fan. I hadn't really watched the show that much, but I'd seen him on Larry Sanders Show and I'd read lots of interviews with him and he's incredibly funny. You know, very smart, very intelligent, and I knew he'd probably be a really good laugh.

DD: I liked her work. I think she's a really good actress so I was excited about that and then you know, when I met her, she's really unpretentious. And fun, and funny, and quick, so you know, Minnie off screen was a pleasure and as an actress, she's really respectful of what other people need to do.

[Dance clip, but voiceover]

A: David plays an architect who's wife is killed in a car crash while Minnie is a waitress who's recovering from a heart transplant and guess who's heart she has? Hence the film's tagline, "a comedy straight from the heart". The movie is co-written and directed by Bonnie Hunt who also appears in the film and she must take most of the credit or all of the flak.

BH: There's been this trend for many years where the more weird and avant-garde something is, the more creative or we give it more credit artistically and I think sometimes we're j(?) It's very difficult to tell a simple, funny, smart story. It is. You know when you're done, if you do it really, really well, it looks so simple, you don't get credit, you know. And that's the goal almost, as to have people go, "oh that looks so easy".

["Would you go out with me?" Clip. Voiceover]

A: At the moment Duchovny is waiting to start on his final X-files TV series so with all this time to waste, I tried to convince him to spend more time in our local time wasting endeavour, 'The Millennium Dome', and especially, the giant human body zone.

DD: Are most people lining up to go in the ass or the mouth? Where do they like to go in?

A: I think you go in

DD: Is it cheaper if you line up at the ass? [A laughs] I would think so. Or do you go in the mouth and come out the ass? [DD laughs-very sweet!]

A: I think you go down the colon? [DD laughs again!]

DD: That's where the lines are because that thing goes around like this. [DD does twisting circular motion with his hands.]

A: That's right, yeah. It's really long the colon, it takes about ½ an hour.

DD: It's terrible, it's terrible.

A: It's a huge piece of equipment.

DD: yeah.

A: That's the highlight believe me so anyway.

DD: As, as it should be.

A: Yeah, quite.

DD: And then are you attacked by the digestive juices? [A laughs] Do they hire, you know out of work actors to kind of come after you and try to break you down?

A: Just throw bile at you. [DD laughs!] and it's dark and at the end

DD: No wonder it cost $800 million, it's a while production. [A laughs] I'm gonna go. I'm gonna bring a change of clothes and get over there.

A: Well we'd advise you to join Dave in the Dome rather than see this movie. Imagine if Nora Effron(?) had made an episode of Tales of the Unexpected, it would have ended up something like this sentimental film. RTM is released next weekend, rated PG.
