An Actor I thought Was Brilliant in This...


The guy who played the deer hunter who Brooks meets in the Sushi restaurant. Great timing and delivery playing a straightforward everyman. Watch it again, check out his mannerisms. He's really good.

I agree. Good character actors are the unsung heroes of the movies. They give a movie an added dimension. Hack filmmakers, or inexperienced ones, use just anybody, like their friends, acquaintances, and ordinary people off the street. That's one reason why I hate most Indie low-budget films, and don't go to film festivals much anymore.

Deer hunter? I thought the guy owned titty bars or something. Remember, he said he coined the phrase 'all nude'.

reply

Indeed he did. (owned titty bars and coined the phrase 'All Nude') He died in a hunting accident.

I would, but I gotta take a piss.
You comin’?

P.S. I was the first to come up with the phrase, “ALL NUDE.”
Yep — that was mine.

Yes, that was a great scene. He was the only guy looking at more days than Daniel. I think it was 12 or 15.

Oh my God … NINE DAYS!!

You gone throw up.
