The scene where Sir Ian explains acting took forever to shoot, as they both kept cracking up laughing 😂
@ihateunicorns8672 жыл бұрын
I swear that scene is one of the funniest pieces of TV I’ve ever watched. My girlfriend and I were both on the floor laughing when this aired due to us having a landlord who would over explain really simple things to us just like this.

This is one of the greatest descriptions of acting I’ve seen. It’s simultaneously true, and totally useless to anyone wanting to learn from him or to actually understand how he gets into the mindset of the character

I forgot Mark Kermode was in this. You should check out some of his film reviews. Sex and the City 2 and Entourage are two of the best film review rants you’d ever see,

This episode, aside from being brilliantly funny clearly shows the hypocrisies in Andy as a person. He wants to be a successful actor, he gets the chance to appear in a play directed by Sir Ian McKellan but he’s willing to sabotage all that just for acceptance from a bunch of guys from high school he secretly couldn’t care less about.

Inevitably shows from the 90's,00's,10's,20's will also be deemed innapropriate in due course. People offended by comedy of all things🤷♂️
