Jason Segel's laughter is so pure. Also, I never realized how much a good interviewer can bring out the best. Cheers to Jason, his counterpart and the wonderful ideologies expressed in this. good stuff!!
@prbeacon11 ай бұрын
indeed props to interviewer. gave him space to elaborate and asked intriguing questions. near the end i even thought to wonder what he himself (the interviewer) might ask DFW if he could ask one question, because it seemed like he would've jumped in and given one or two to think about it, if Segel had volleyed the question back to him. then again maybe i read into it too much, that moment (of segel's deft dodge of the "what question" question) heh

@drawntojapan9 жыл бұрын
this is an excellent interview, jason segel is really very clever and there is definitely some essence of DFW in the way that he answers the questions, with a matter-of-fact-ness and some nervousness that people won't see things in the same clarity that he does

I like to think the story about the healthy town, the hill, and the bike is really a metaphor for what's really worthwhile in life. That it is so easy to go downhill, but ultimately empty. That actually the old man is really wisdom, that the climb is the point and that the gears represent change, and finding the thing that's difficult enough for you as a person to make the climb enough of a struggle to be worthwhile, but yet possible for you. All the while knowing that it's pointless comparing your bike to someone elses.

Part of Jason Segal has become David Foster Wallace. Similar to Jim Carrey and Andy Kaufman.
@nickilovesdogs81376 жыл бұрын
It might appear that way but what it really is it's that diving into David Foster Wallace's books forces us to introspect much deeper than we would ever do it on our own. We dive into it, we feel it and then the Ego gradually dissolves and gives room for truth and being who we really are which is being creative and in tune with cosmic humor.

Played Wallace like he was the guy who slept on the couch in a bandana. People want to exhume Wallace so badly that anything that purports to resemble him is to be worshipped. The portrayal was insulting to Wallace's memory and who Wallace actually was.
