SCOTT MECHLOWICZ: We wanted to get in so much more trouble than we actually did. You're either working or sleeping.
TRAVIS WESTER: We really tried.
JACOB PITTS: I didn't really try.
TRAVIS WESTER: Yeah, I didn't either I guess. I actually wanted to stay out of trouble because I didn't want to get kicked out of the country. I figured things were dicey enough for Americans abroad at that time.
Did you experience Prague nightlife?
TRAVIS WESTER: We did actually.
How would you describe it?
JACOB PITTS: Pretty poorly.
SCOTT MECHLOWICZ: We went to this place where the drinking age was eight or nine. We saw nine-year-old girls with beers in their hands.
TRAVIS WESTER: It was like this bar where I guess from all over Europe these high school tour groups come, so you have all these high school kids, like young high school kids, 14, 15 years old getting completely shit-faced. And then you have 30-year-old men there to prey on them.
SCOTT MECHLOWICZ: All the old men are on the top level just peering down. It's really very National Geographic looking.
What's the furthest you've gone for romance?
SCOTT MECHLOWICZ: Down the street.
TRAVIS WESTER: I would say Reseda.
JACOB PITTS: Eight city blocks. I won't say much, but I watched a lot of John Cusack movies when I was younger and those will take you far and beyond the call. They're kind of poison, I think, unless you have a good perspective on the whole romance thing. That whole “In Your Eyes” with the jukebox thing, that's not a reality based concept.
What's wrong with the jukebox bit?
TRAVIS WESTER: Doesn't work.
JACOB PITTS: It's more pathetic than it is heroic and in real life, there's nobody who's going to edit you into a series of well-dialogued scenes, and Ione Skye is not around.
What’s next for you?
SCOTT MECHLOWICZ: I have a movie coming out called “Mean Creek” with Rory Culkin. It has kind of a “Stand By Me” undertone. It's a bunch of group of kids who get into some unforeseen trouble that they weren't expecting. It's kind of the moral dilemmas and everything around it. The cast is just these young, talented kids that I never knew were capable of being that talented at that age. So it was such a pleasure to work with them, and it was so nice to just be spending four weeks [with them]. It felt like camp.
