<p>they would transport all these materials</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<time>00:05:44</time>
<p>Pennsylvania</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:45</time>

<p>materials and equipment and this that</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p>and the other up this super steep hill</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:03</time>
<p>and then it basically turned into a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:05</time>
<p>tourist attraction yeah and then people</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p>um but so here we have like this</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:12</time>
<p>conflict yeah right where oh not only is</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:17</time>
<p>she doing a job that is a predominantly</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:19</time>
<p>male job in a huge industry in</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:22</time>
<p>Pittsburgh Pennsylvania especially then</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:24</time>
<p>especially then you can imagine the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:26</time>
<p>money she would be making now at that</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:29</time>
<p>at that age she wouldn't be a full</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:32</time>
<p>welder she'd be an apprentice welder but</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:35</time>
<p>you would still be making a ton of money</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:36</time>
<p>based on her age yeah you can talk about</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:38</time>
<p>it yeah based on her age because you</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:40</time>
<p>have to have so many years experience</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:41</time>
<p>welding to to be a master welder and so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:44</time>
<p>Apprentice welder but you're still</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:45</time>
<p>making a ton of money Pittsburgh is a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:48</time>
<p>city of Steel yeah it's this welding</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:51</time>
<p>everywhere and so we go to the location</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:53</time>
<p>where she's working and she gets the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:54</time>
<p>sandwich yeah her lunch her lunch break</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:56</time>
<p>yeah and you see all this the steel yeah</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:59</time>
<p>and it was very interesting again kind</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:02</time>
<p>of from a behind the scenes perspective</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:03</time>
<p>so that's definitely that's absolutely</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:06</time>
<p>the spot but the building has actually</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:08</time>
<p>been kind of added on to a little bit</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:10</time>
<p>and so we really had to kind of do some</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:12</time>
<p>double takes because I was trying to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:13</time>
<p>recreate this shot and I couldn't quite</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:16</time>
<p>get it to match because there's like a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:18</time>
<p>different building in the background now</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:19</time>
<p>where there wasn't back then and they've</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:22</time>
<p>built on they've kind of added this uh</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:24</time>
<p>kind of truck dock station</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:27</time>
<p>um actually on to the onto the building</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:28</time>
<p>where she was next to so we do like the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:30</time>
<p>best job we can but like there's just I</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:33</time>
<p>mean think about it was filmed you know</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:34</time>
<p>in the early 80s it was released in</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:36</time>
<p>1983. sure and uh here we are 40 years</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:40</time>
<p>later which is crazy</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:42</time>
<p>um and uh</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:43</time>
<p>you know and so so the the cities change</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:46</time>

<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:46</time>
<p>everything away and starts working at</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:49</time>
<p>the strip club and then doesn't she kind</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:50</time>
<p>of encourage then from there she</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:52</time>

<p>far her friend has lost her Focus yeah</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:07</time>
<p>having real Independence in their</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:09</time>
<p>transportation because at the time women</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:12</time>
<p>were very much</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:14</time>
<p>you just had to be</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:16</time>
<p>whatever you're Reliant yeah you're</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:19</time>
<p>reliant on your husband or your</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:20</time>
<p>significant other or whatever yeah</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:22</time>
<p>whatever they had for a carriage or</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:25</time>
<p>maybe a trolley you know so it wasn't</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:28</time>
<p>like you're reliant on mass</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:30</time>
<p>transportation you don't have your own</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:32</time>
<p>individual it was very symbolic right</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:35</time>
<p>the bicycle kind of became the symbol I</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:38</time>
<p>mean they were like when I was again</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:39</time>
<p>when I was looking at pictures yeah of</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:42</time>
<p>kind of the women's right rights</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:43</time>
<p>movements and stuff like that</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:45</time>
<p>um they were they're posing there with</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:47</time>
<p>their bicycles yeah so you it's so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:49</time>
<p>evident in the movie another like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:51</time>
<p>another symbolism she's bicycling</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:53</time>
<p>everywhere in this movie she doesn't</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:56</time>
<p>have a car she could easily afford a car</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:59</time>
<p>she's a welder she was making 1980s</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:01</time>
<p>actually making really good money in</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:03</time>
<p>Pittsburgh Pennsylvania she could buy a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:04</time>
<p>car but she's not she's using her 10</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:07</time>
<p>speed from her dance studio at night in</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:10</time>
<p>the rain right at one point Nick is</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:12</time>
<p>following her in his Porsche and she's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:15</time>
<p>bicycling home in in the rain so they</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:18</time>
<p>make a point to really show this symbol</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:20</time>
<p>yeah that she's that she's independent</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:22</time>
<p>they drive that that's if there's one</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:24</time>
<p>theme that they're driving through this</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:25</time>
<p>right it's being independent and for her</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:29</time>
<p>following her dream yes following her</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:30</time>
<p>dreams so that that's the whole momentum</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:33</time>
<p>here is that you're there it's a huge</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:36</time>
<p>influence in pop culture is following</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:38</time>
<p>your dreams maybe sometimes you do need</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:41</time>
<p>help from other people it's okay to take</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:43</time>
<p>the help from other people yeah the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:44</time>
<p>story of struggle yes we all need help</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:48</time>
<p>every now and then that's okay you can</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:50</time>
<p>still make your dreams come true and you</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:53</time>
<p>know that you need people to believe in</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:55</time>
<p>you in the end but I think the biggest</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:57</time>
<p>thing is like opportunity when it meets</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:59</time>
<p>preparation yes equals success</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:02</time>
<p>absolutely and I think that's kind of</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:03</time>
<p>what it was trying to show there like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:05</time>
<p>she's still doing it on her own because</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:07</time>
<p>she was prepared for that moment right</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:09</time>
<p>she had the opportunity she got it the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:12</time>
<p>opportunity from help but her</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:14</time>
<p>preparation led to her success so I</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:16</time>
<p>think</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:16</time>
<p>that was the huge message that they were</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:19</time>
<p>trying to get across especially for</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:21</time>
<p>women in the early 80s you can do it</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:23</time>
<p>yeah you know make sure you're prepared</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:25</time>
<p>for when opportunity presents itself to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:27</time>
<p>you yeah and there was there was one</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:29</time>
<p>other thing before we finish up that I</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:30</time>
<p>want to talk about that I thought was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:31</time>
<p>really neat</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:36</time>
<p>and that was the crossing guard oh yeah</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:39</time>
<p>so we we go there the crossing guard</p>
<p></p>

<time>00:21:41</time>
<p>what was this do you remember his name</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:47</time>
<p>to find like original old footage on</p>

<p>years he did that because you can</p>
<p></p>

<p></p>
