WTF Happened to Crispin Glover?

[@Locadel2003]

"Willard" from 2003 is an underrated flick and interesting underrated performance by him. I think its one of his best roles

[@magazineretriever9036]

The scene in Willard (2003) where the cat gets eaten alive by all of those rats is gruesome. I can't watch that again.

[@Dorisasaurus1133]

I completely agree with you on Willard. A greatly underrated movie

[@PollyHistor]

One of my favorites of all-time. 🖤

[@MrScratch69]

​@donutpunch1it's in print now?

[@MrScratch69]

@donutpunch1 nice. Great find. Uuugh just checked it's out of stock. 😔

[@keiththorpe9571]

"River's Edge" was an intense movie, and Glover was just out of his mind. I can almost see why everyone in Hollywood just kept him at arm's length. You have to go a long way to be too weird for Hollywood, but he pulled it off quite admirably.

[@RenegadeContext]

I don't think you can be too weird for Hollywood but your only allowed to direct it at "unimportant people" he was an equal rights weirdo which is not acceptable

[@terrywilliams7827]

Always loved this movie. He was great at his role

[@magazineretriever9036]

Yeah, Crispin Glover seemed legitimately insane in River's Edge. That movie damn near traumatized me when I watched it as a little kid. Glover's bit role in Wild At Heart also seemed to be tailor-made for him.

[@Larkinchance]

He was good in the River's Edge

[@jefftatro8871]

I recently asked my (20 and 23 yo) sons, "wanna see how my friends and I looked and acted in the late 80s?". We watched Rivers Edge. It still holds up.

[@Galgomite]

I got to see Glover present "What Is It?" in person. He can be a commanding presence in a room! His movie was as "art house" as you could imagine, and Glover himself was wonderfully unpretentious in the Q&A, revealing frank bits of trivia about both his movie and himself. I'm glad he's in the world and expressing himself.

[@pest174]

Same! Watched it when it was presented in NYC about a decade ago.

[@wickedfeylady]

Met him after the film. He was quite kind and friendly and we had a nice chat about "Bartleby," a movie of his I love.

[@ql6746]

The letter makes 100% sense

[@dano8902]

I saw him in Buffalo presenting the film "What Is It?" a couple weeks before I had back surgery back in 2013. I bought a copy of Ratcatching at that event! Yes, it's weird but still oddly fascinating. He did have to kick some douchebag out for violating the rule of not taking videos with cellphones...I could understand that given the content of the film and how it could be taken out of context if only clips were shown. Anyway, after seeing him in person I can totally see how his Letterman appearances were performance art.

[@colinluckens9591]

​@@wickedfeylady Oh wow👍👍

[@mmclaurin8035]

I understand what Crispin was saying about money being the reward at the end of BTTF, but it wasn't JUST money. It was realized potential, and self confidence, doing something he had passion for as a way to help raise his family, instead of being stuck in a job he hated.

[@andrewkaye2108]

I agree. To me, it was the older son and daughter being more successful and George and his wife being more confident that were positive changes, the money was just a side effect of that.

[@charlesvickers2047]

Yeah, supposedly, Eric Stoltz (first actor picked for Marty McFly), ended up leaving the film, because he honestly felt that anyone who 'disrupts the time/space continuum' deserves to be punished by fate. Some actors take shit a little TOO seriously, sometimes...

[@charlesvickers2047]

Oh, the director realized Michael J. Fox (the first choice for M. McFly) was the only choice. That too. Oops.

[@StandWatie1862]

Yeah a rich kid mentality. Someone who never lived paycheck to paycheck.

[@magazineretriever9036]

It seemed to me, like the McFlys in 1985-B were "well-off", but not wealthy per se. In fact, George McFly's first novel had only recently been published. It also seemed to me like the two grown McFly kids, Dave and Linda were still living at home, because Dave apparently answers his parents' house phone, when someone named "Greg or Craig" called Linda. I was always under the impression that the Marty McFly from 1985-B, who the original Marty sees fleeing in the DeLoreon at "Lone Pine Mall" was a completely different person -- perhaps someone who "wasn't a slacker", and therefore worked hard to pay for half of the shiny, new, Toyota SR5 in his parents' garage -- while his parents paid for the other half.

[@trinaq]

It's ironic that George McFly had a hard time standing up for himself, whereas offscreen, Glover was the exact opposite, and wouldn't stop being demanding.

He is extremelety engaging with his fans. He came to Toronto in 2004 to present Crispin Hellion Glovers Big Slide Show at the Bloor Cinema. Before the show I was lucky enough to be in the audience for an interview he did on a talk show called PopCultured with Elvira Kurt. During a short commercial break he offered to take questions from the audience. My hand was the first to go up so I got to ask him a question and I'll never forget the experience of getting to speak with my favorite actor of all time.

We need to talk about how Letterman didn't even flinch when that platform shoe cut the air at an inch from his nose. Tough mother.

[@magazineretriever9036]

What's strange to me, is that Crispin Glover got banned from returning to Late Night after that incident, even though Dave Letterman didn't seem visibly afraid of Crispin kicking him. Maybe it was the network's decision not to allow Crispin back on the show, and not Dave's.

[@Scorchy666]

[@derekshropshire2513]

I asked him about the ending to BTTF and in one script the McFly's had black servants. Crispin had a huge problem with this. They weren't just successful but were extremely wealthy. Eventually it was changed to Biff doing the chores. What is it is definitely out there. He was very nice when I met him definitely an interesting individual.

[@magazineretriever9036]

What I've never understood is, if the McFlys in 1985-B are "wealthy", then why do they live in the same modest home as the McFlys from 1985-A? I'd say that the 1985-B McFlys are well-off, but not wealthy. That isn't the kind of home where you're likely to find servants. So, that whole angle would have been odd to see in the original film. Instead of hiring black servants, the McFly's hire Biff Tannen, the man who nearly raped Lorraine 30 years earlier, to wax their vehicles. 😆

So I used to work at a very popular health food store in Tucson Arizona.. many actors of high renowned and sports players of high renowned and celebrities used to shop there all the time. There would always be worried that some new celebrity was in town because they were filming something in Tucson Arizona. Then came the word that Crispin Glover was in town because he was hosting some film project across the street at a very indie movie theater across the street. So there I was at the deli just ordering my food for break when I looked over at the salad bar and there was Crispin glover. He was building himself a salad but he wasn't just strolling the salad bar like a normal person he was getting down on his knees looking at the side of the table and stroking the side of the salad bar and then getting up and looking at each dish and just being incredibly dramatic. Keep in mind I had already seen a million celebrities at this store. I had already heard about Crispin Glover's performance art antics.. he did not disappoint...I believe the man just lives performance-art much the same as Graham Chapman did with Monty Python and much the same as Joaquin Phoenix did when for two years he pretended to be a rap star... Know the man was phenomenal to watch.. he was absolutely putting on performance... And I just said to myself this is really cool I got to see Crispin Glover being Crispin Glover at a salad bar at a grocery store... The man is an artist and he is a genius... That's all I have to say I just remember watching him. I've always appreciated when these artists engage in real life performance art and everybody thinks they're crazy but somehow to them they know they're just acting even though they're not enough film.. I got to see it live three feet away from me and it was beautiful If you didn't know it was Crispin Glover and his reputation for performance art you would have thought this man was insane because he literally got down on his hands and knees and started stroking the side of the salad bar... But apparently he was putting on a great film festival across the street.. all of us at the store we're so used to celebrities that it didn't really strike us as strange.. but I remember thinking I just got to see Crispin Glover being Crispin Glover.. and I love performance art.. so I just smiled and was like I'm thankful I got to see this.. it was an act. I cannot stress enough he was not trying to call attention to himself either... He was doing performance art. Something that most the viewing populous just don't understand.... He was entertaining himself by playing a character... And I sat there waiting for my deli sandwich to be made and just watched. It was like he was someone from the Middle ages just discovering an airplane... It was amazing to watch and I was literally three feet from him and I just sat there and I said there's Crispin Glover being Crispin Glover this is freaking awesome.. but it was pretty clear it was performance art

If George McFly had gotten so rich, why did they live in the same house at the end of the movie? Wouldn't he have moved the family into a nicer house? Sure, it was decorated nicer, but it looked more like George and Lorraine just cared enough to keep it nice. In the beginning, mom and dad just didn't care. I'm sure there was extra money coming in as an author, but it doesn't look like a huge jump in his net worth. Beyond that, as others have said, it wasn't the celebration of wealth. It was the celebration of George sanding up for himself, and in the end, doing what he loved (writing). The house at the end doesn't look like a rich person's house. It looks like a house lived in by someone who simply cared to clean it up and make it look nice.

What is The Music At 8:44?

The wig and shoes are from Rubin & Ed, he was on the show promoting the film.

[@jasondouglas152]

At Close Range is a great movie. He's not in it much but I'd definitely recommend it

[@richardrude9087]

Chris Penn was also in the movie AT CLOSE RANGE. They played brothers

Dave was pretty smooth and casual when Glover swung a kick inches from his face. Talk shows usually set up the segments of 'spontaneity' but when a kick comes that close to you, the instinct is to flinch.

If he'd been introduced as Ed from Rubin and Ed, we'd have maybe understood the joke better.

His interview about his books was awesome. Being published by illiteratti was pure genius.

If LSD was to trip on itself it's trip would be a lifetime of Crispin Glover.

Crispin Glover is a good and underrated actor and he would have been good for the role of the Joker!

River's Edge is such a good movie that not enough people have seen

[@tujungite4914]

Totally! I still watch this movie..I lived in the areas it was filmed for years! Sunland, Tujunga, Sun Valley. When it came out, I started seeing all these streets, stores I drove past all the time. "Feck's" house, in Tujunga..The park, I lived a block away from the High School (Verdugo Hills)..it's a unique area of Los Angeles, northeast of Burbank. There's filming there regularly as it doesn't "look" like LA. ET was filmed up there as well. River's Edge..Crispin with Keanu and Denis Hopper..such a good movie! The soundtrack with Slayer, and other metal bands. 🔥
