I saw Good on Paper on Netflix last night, it was surprisingly entertaining, when she is on screen she commands. She is very photogenic and has a feisty character beefed up by her costar Margaret Cho.
Someone telling a lie to seem more attractive to someone else has been told time and time again hasn't it? I'm not hating on your comment I agree there is a need for originality I just don't think this is it
@@2CanSam1000 True, but when it’s a true story it’s movie worthy. Plus, if you have followed Iliza over the years you’ve heard the “Brian story” time and time again.
It's hard to call it original when it actually happened, & she's spoken about it in her stand up. She's just regurgitating & adding the Hollywood sprinkles to it, to maximise profits
If you’d like her comedy specials see her live. You will absolutely, positively not be disappointed. She is absolutely brilliant as well as brilliantly funny! Very sweet too, if you happen to be lucky enough to meet her after the show. Edit: I saw her one week before she announced her pregnancy at her show in Texas & was saying to my niece how it seemed odd that she was wearing a T-shirt because I’ve never seen her dressed down for a live show. The next week when I saw her announced her pregnancy I thought “bingo, I knew that was a reason she was wearing a T-shirt“! Very happy for her and Noah, they will be wonderful parents. And let’s face it, they’re going to make a beautiful baby!
I couldn’t agree more! I just saw her a few weeks ago & it happened to be the week before she announced her pregnancy. I said to my niece that it was odd she was wearing a T-shirt because she’s usually more dressed up for shows. A week later she announced her pregnancy at a show in Texas (which makes perfect sense) and I thought “OK, now it makes sense”. So happy for them! I think they will be great parents and will undeniably make a beautiful & brilliantly intelligent baby. 👏👏👏❤️❤️
I just zoomed over to Netflix and watched Good On Paper, it was really good and my Mom liked it, i knew the story from her stand up but it was really good.
What stand up is it in? Can you post links? I've never seen her talk about it in her stand-up, though I thought I've trawled all the Iliza Shlesinger material there is.
I was just thinking that same thing!!! Her standup is awesome with the fact she’s so vulnerable & ruthless on stage! But she pretty much says what we’re all actually thinking…but we don’t say out loud because of societal norms of ‘being a lady, who keeps her mouth shut due to our upbringing.” Anyway, as I ramble on and on, I apologize. To the point, her haircut looks really good on her! I’m sure it’s more comfy & cool this freaking hot summer. Ciao!.
@@mm12345777 Q: Do you guys think this movie is as good or better than her standup specials?! **Asking for a friend**. Just playing, but for real, is it worth it to watch this film? Thanks you guys!!
I know someone who pretended that *she* herself had cancer. She’d shave her head & wear a scarf on her head & milk everything she could out of everyone. It’s despicable.
Why did I know what story the movie was gonna be about before she started talking about it lol. I didn’t know this was even being made lol. I’m gonna watch this tonight.
Love her! I also caught she called Jimmy... Ronnie. (aprox 3:21) lol Had to back up to check that. I could listen to her all day, in fact, I binge watch anything with her on it.
Just watched the movie, very enjoyable and troublesome at the same time. I've known a few guys that refuse to be honest about who they are to trick females into liking them. It definitely seems like a power trip.
Same here. I wanted to ask if the sociopath is Gavern Dane Tate from Jamaica who wasted 5 years of my life. Its very sad that there are others like him around.
@bleedingred Um.. I think I said the guy "I" was dating was living a double life. Besides that, if you can rationalize that someone who "just lies" about his entire life is not so bad and that they're aren't living a double-life, I don't think you understand what that means. He's living BOTH his reality and a fantasy life with her. Get it?
@@flibutterfli So sorry to hear that. Yup there are too many who have sociopathic and psychopathic tendencies but I'm hopeful that with mental health becoming more and more understood and destigmatized, people will be more inclined to watch out for those traits in a partner. You and I learned the hard way. :(
I went to Yale every day for over 10 years ... but the only thing I learned was if you don't put the safety latch on before you close the door behind you, the door will lock !
You'd be surprised. The Ivy league crowds that I've met were nothing to write home about. Then again, admittingly, they didn't get in due to scholarships so...
They also have most of the same curriculum as other good schools. Its about the connections at the ivy league schools and the inroads they have to industries all over.
@@ThinkBeFree99 I think that's true. It's more telling of who they were in high school than the rigor of their higher education. (Unless they got in on a legacy basis.)
Love her and loved her retelling of the story on Kimmel but the movie….wasn’t worth the time. Something got lost in translation. Hope she tries again someday and gets better writers.
I don't feel that the pressure to date unattractive people (or at least whom one finds unattractive) or they are superficial is something done against women. I think it is culturally acceptable to do against "hot" people. And no one has ever complained that they are not liked because of their looks by someone random. Everyone always complains that someone hot does not like them for superficial reasons. Newsflash, no one has to like anyone. Where did this entitlement come from?
Like a live catfish...(as opposed to being catfished online). Guess he figured she's out his league so he's going to keep the ruse going as long as he can b/c he's never gotten this much attention before and he feels special. Lol...
First with the fan, yeah.. Swedish artist Carola used a big fan on her concerts back in 1983. Beyonce was 2yrs old then, so she could not been the first with the fan, right..?
Liza tells the story and her stand up I remember it if you want to look it up. The other funny one is when she flew to Britain to try and get back together with her ex-boyfriend or something
UMMMM FERPA requires that colleges never divulge who has ever or ever will enroll in said colleges. You can't just call the registrar and get a fully truthful answer about "did this guy go there?". It's illegal federally. They may have said "we cannot give you that information" or, "we are not aware of that person" because of that law. Just for argument's sake. I've dated a psychopath before, so this is painfully familiar.
"In northwest Alaska, kunlangeta "might be applied to a man who, for example, repeatedly lies and cheats and steals things and does not go hunting, and, when the other men are out of the village, takes sexual advantage of many women." The Inuits tacitly assume that kunlangeta is irremediable. And so, according to Murphy, the traditional Inuit approach to such a man was to insist he go hunting, and then, in the absence of witnesses, push him off the edge of the ice."

Her movie with Mark Wahlberg is also on Netflix if I'm not mistaken.

Courage is looking fear right in the eye and saying, Get the hell out of my way, I've got things to do.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
So brave. So strong. Still not funny.
She could play Elizabeth Holmes in a biopic, all she needs is the voice lol.
Having just heard about her now through this video, she looks like a combination of Melissa Villaseñor and Miley Cyrus
Personally I don't really think she looks like Elizabeth Holmes though
@@Teaganbear felt I kinda got a Elizabeth Banks vibe lol
She needs to practice the psychotic eyes.
A sulfur hexafluoride gas mix would do the trick, breathing it is like the opposite of breathing helium

She told the story in one of her specials
She slightly reminds me of Tea Leoni.
... more Traylor Howard
I see it!
Yeess. That’s it. I was trying to figure it out.
Holy crap!!! I just caught that!! 🤯😱😂🤣
Just finished the movie....not bad Iliza Shlesinger
really good movie.... i must say
000
Iliza has been in the comedy biz a really long time I remember seeing her on comedy central back in 2009
I’m so glad I watched her live in a tiny comedy show back in like 2010. So good!!
I fell in love with this girl after watching the movie.
She’s seriously amazing.
Too bad she's already married.
i swear she looks like an entirely different person than her standup
I just feel in love... She's just stunning with that hair style.
Love her! I also caught she called Jimmy... Ronnie. (aprox 3:21) lol Had to back up to check that. I could listen to her all day, in fact, I binge watch anything with her on it.
Seen her shows. Really liked her. I'll check this movie out.
She's hilarious. Love her standup.
Am I way too high? ...or did she say the dude's actual name in that interview when talking about her mom calling the Yale registry?
Just watched the movie, very enjoyable and troublesome at the same time.
I've known a few guys that refuse to be honest about who they are to trick females into liking them. It definitely seems like a power trip.
Wow, that's troublesome.
On behalf of Armadillo's everywhere I am hurt and offended.
I thought you had thicker skin than that
Not sure I could watch that movie - I’ll get flash backs of my own experience of dating a guy who was living a double life. Lol

i recall watching her perform this on stage for " this is not happening " and was shocked.
Absolutely love her!!! She was perfect in Spencer Confidential ❤️❤️❤️
loved the interview and the movie
Good movie. Needed more dynamic camera angles & movements though. Every scene was either from the chest up, hip up, or close up.
Jimmy, it's 2021, my man, you gotta update the resolution of these videos, bro.
She doesn’t look like she Trump’s age but was this a commercial flight or on his private jet they met?
Like trump would ever talk to a woman his age out of his own free will.
OMG! I have to watch this movie! I dated a man who did exactly the same thing...he lied to me about EVERYTHING!!!
I'm pretty sure social media posts do give people cancer, though.
No… but posting negative bullshit and having “Internet Fortitude” will….. negativity in its own right is a disease and it will eat you up
I could not effectively convince anyone I went to an Ivy League school, so I tell the truth about my education.

I think it was a joke so calm down
and long before that untalented git Lisa Marie Presley as well...
Lol- the cameraman is in love with the back of her head💕
His wife is the hair stylist. :)
Me, too. I really love her haircut.
That would be a director who decides which camera to cut to….
The best parts of the movie are Margaret choe.
Didn't give a damn about the movie but now I'm definitely gonna see it.
She looks a lot like the actress who played Natalie Teiger in Monk.
Whoa! I don't know how I never noticed that before.
MY THOUGHT EXACTLY!
That's the way you should promote your movie......well done
Love all her stuff man!! So me and our chickletts in her comedy routines!
I might have seen that movie??? Seems familiar.
At 3:23 does she call Jimmy "Ronnie?"
I thought I was that only one who caught rhat! I think you're right
God, Iliza's so damn funny. I've always really liked her.
That happened.
Almost met Quentin Tarantino, but dated a real-life George Costanza 😂😂😂
I’m a warthog, and I never lie... oh wait... sorry, that’s a lie.. oh well.
Yippie!!!! I can't wait to see it 😁👏👏👏
SHE'S SO GORGEOUS 💚 BUT SO DAAMMMNNNN KRAZY AND THAT I REALLY LIKE ABOUT HER AND HER COMEDY
The movie is awesome. I reccomend watching it without seeing the trailer first, it spoils a lot
She's so pretty and Witty !!

Great movie!
Don’t ask her for a lighter though😄

Im convinced to watch the movie
Cool guest, JK. Your cancer comment was sweet.
the theme for our current time might be that we learn how many people lie to world and themselves
omg she's THAT girl? I remember seeing this story somewhere online a long time ago...never connected it to her as a stand up comedian
