Beats lookin' at her face.

Can someone help me out? I'm a writer, and I'm apparently being paid by the word, and I can only think of a dozen ways to make the point that Baldwin is a prodigiously gifted actor who is often his own worst enemy.

All I know of this guy is about 15 minutes of stand-up.
So, does he always carry on like an inner-city Black Dude?

Oh crap! The fact that I said that one thing and then you came along and said that other thing is causing me some real cognitive dissonance!

From, I believe, the nineteenth paragraph:
"…a prodigiously gifted actor who is often his own worst enemy."

I'm calling for
a one-year moratorium on the use of the phrase "cognitive dissonance" on this site.

Both Karen Schmeer and Philip Glass have intimated that working with Errol Morris is a fucking pain in the ass.

"No one does 'Existential Dread' like Philip." -Errol Morris

"Franny and Zooey" may make you break into a cold sweat if you've ever had a nervous breakdown. Franny's is evoked pretty painfully.

Ah, yes! Madea will knock some sense into that boy!

Spike Jonze, for sure.

Immaculate Misconception,
"Franny" and "Zooey" are a short story and a novella, respectively.
They originally appeared, separately, two years apart, in The New Yorker.

I hear Beyonce wants a crack at the role.

So I take it Salinger does not own?

It is not funny.

Purely by coincidence, I (elsewhere) proposed GVS two minutes after Dark Passengerside Airbag did.

So if there HAS to be a "Catcher" film…
Who do you think has the chops to direct it?

"Catcher" is his ONLY novel… as far as we know.

He's great in
"Mother Night."
