Hey I can see your concern and you're right no one will play Mr. Pryor like Mr. Pryor but I think we can all agree that Samuel L. would give everything he absolutely has for the performance
Like Mr. Pryor, when it comes to his craft, it's never done half ass.
On to a less serious note, I've never seen this movie True Stories but I like John Goodman maybe I'll check it out. Who else is in it?
Okay, True Stories is from 1986 and directed by David Byrne - lead singer for The Talking Heads. You'll definitely recognize some of the songs and maybe an excert as the music video.
Some other people in it are David Byrne, Swoosie Kurtz, Pops Staples ... mostly some unknown people. It's very odd, great music. Just so you get some flavor, the front of the DVD says, "A completely cool, multi-purpose movie."
I swear, your stuff is always beyond what I know. I did like the Pee-Wee stuff and Reservoir Dogs but the ear scene is a little much for me. Although I'm not saying it shouldn't be there - just that I have to hide my face! And the guy who played the ear cutter - god, can't remember his name - he's a great actor. So gentle in some of his other stuff. Isn't he in Kill Bill 2?
Thanks for the info on "True Stories"! I'll most certainly check it out and you check out something of Samuel L Jackson's ok?
Maybe I'm bias since I'm such a huge fan of Samuel's but I think he's one of THE best actors of all time. Seriously! If there were a 100 Greatest Actors list, like the 100 Greatest Comic's list, I'd be willing to bet some of my very hard earned money that Samuel L. would be on it
