>ITT: times you acted like Andre
>>221394578Yeah, I watched that.
>>221394578Every single person mentioned in that poster is Jewish. From the actors, to the director, to the producers, to the guy giving it a raving review; every single fucking one of them
i almost had dinner once, then i thought: what am i doing

>>221395060So? Do you hate Japanese movies because everybody involved in them is Japanese?
>>221395301No, I do not mind the Japanese
>>221394578>funnyIt made me sad.
Imagine being the goblin man and having to listen to rich ass yuppie Andre rant about his pseudo intellectual spiritual euro forest journey and you have to sit there and be like wow thats so amazing how you guys just run around in a circle and sing and cry and cook and thats your theater work now
>>221395060Inconceivable!
>>221394578>man, life is depressing.>lol I kno rite?>you ever yearn for something more?>yeah, sometimes. Anyway, what looks good here?
>>221395491Andre's character in the film is actually based on Wallace. When they did the stage performances they would often switch up the characters and when the director saw the play he'd seen one where the roles were reversed like that and he subsequently decided on that characterization for the film.
>>221397056to me the movie is more Andre talking about how enlightened his experiences are and then Wallace is like yeah I like the simple life not everyone has the luxury of going and experiencing your yuppie adventure to learn the meaning of life so I just find meaning in the little things, Andre is like yeah whatever I couldn't live like you
>>221397180no way the real Wallace has done those hippie cult things Andre talked about experiencing, thats a big chunk of what he talks about
>>221397249He's absolutely a super weird theater nut. Theater is the only thing he's ever done his entire life besides teaching English in India. He did study politics but he's a lifelong socialist.
>>221394578Some easy philosophy uneducated yanks look at it like some mind shattering stuff.
>>221395491you didn't need to be a rich ass yuppie to experience what andre did in the 70s/80s, doesn't make him any less of a psued though
>>221395060Wallace Shawn is Chinese
>>221395458you should
>>221395060>jews do thing>AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!
>>221394578I'm more like Wallace, which is to say I just nod and say "Hm", "Uh huh", etc.
>>221397562I often wonder what it would be like to be in that pigeon hole, to never step out of it or even, really, want to. Just take the el or whatever from theatre gig to rehearsel and back, etc., in NYC. Never own a car, house, yard or even see grass or trees. Maybe Central Park or the zoo.
