Can Adam Driver portray the intelligence and inner turmoil of David Foster Wallace?
he is too ugly
suicide is gay and retarded
Jonah Hill would be more accurate
>>220980637Didn't they already make a David Foster Wallace movie
>>220980700Yeah but it was with Jason Segel and he sucks even more than Driver does.
>>220980637No, and I'll explain why.
I would kill myself too had I written Incarnations of Burned Children. His head was not a pleasant space.
He looks nothing like Wallace, what is this retarded shit. Might as well cast Idris Elba.
>>220980637Hate the way this guy looks and sounds. He is offensively ugly
>>220980637I think yes the real question is Wes Anderson
David Foster Wallace once wrote a piece about David Lynch. In the piece, he coined a new term: "Lynchian". Wallace described a Lynchian tone as "the unbelievably grotesque existing in a kind of union with the unbelievably banal."He described a husband beating his 1950s housewife to death because she bought the wrong brand of peanut butter. "I told you to buy the JIF," he'd say as he's clobbering her to death. This, he said, would qualify as almost perfectly Lynchian.I think "I Am Jazz" enters into Lynchian territory. The .webm above shows a simple domestic scene. The women look like average suburban moms. They're relaxing on the couch. One imagines they might be discussing casserole recipes when we cut to them. But it slowly dawns on us that in the living room, with placid expressions on their faces, they're talking about the woman's transvestite son's genitals.Despite the obvious subtext and the producers' hope to normalize this horror, the average person is totally disgusted. Nevertheless, the viewer is fascinated. We're drawn further into this. The sheer naked horror of what they're saying, the blasé quality with which they're saying it, it creates this brutal paradox that almost rapes the viewer's basic sense of what is decent.
>>220980637How's Bombay, OP?
Why wouldn't you just cast him?
>>220981633Lol. Thanks for the read and I agree on your take on Jazz.
Too bad they already used Jason Segal to play him. He's pretty perfect for it
David Foster Wallace was a whiny, spoiled, over educated, shit head that couldn't handle real life, so he killed himself. Why would anyone care what he said about anything, let alone watch q movie about him?
>>220981814He looks like that softcore guy, you know the one.
>>220981814Is Librarians still airing?
>>220980637>AI poster>Wes Anderson directing a biopic about DFW>squishyfaced Adam Driver playing him
