ADAM DRIVER

I have a sizeable straight-crush on A Driver, he's one of those actors that's compelling as fuck imo and his physical presence is very much a part of that

xp he is perfect for Jarmusch

I just started the final season of Girls, the best show of the decade. Can't wait to come back here and the other thread and glow on.

He stars as Daniel Jones in The Report, and while it doesn't bore it goes soft just when it becomes clear to the audience who should've been pilloried alongside the Bushies.

"goes soft" is not a reaction anything has in the presence of adam driver iirc

lol what did i just post

and i haven't even seen a film of his!

enjoyed the recent NYer profile

lol

I really need to see Patterson. He was great in Blackkklansman and Dead dont Die (I still cant decide wether that film was terrible, or terribly clever).

I am on board with all this objectification fwiw

im not even into dudes and i find him ... physically charismatic i guess?

"Paterson" has one T, go to Jersey once in awhile

Whoops soz. Be a bit of a trip for me to do that but fair dos.

lol

lol @ marcos's post!

Adam Driver is really appealing, I will always want to see a film he's in

really love Laura Dern, every thing she's done recently is mesmerizing: her performances in Enlightenment, Twin Peaks: The Return, and Big Little Lies are all shockingly great

wait til you see her as hell on heels in Marriage Story.

looking forward to it!

also I do want to lick him all over

I liked The Report. not remarkable in any way, but politically sound and mostly taut. I really appreciated the Zero Dark Thirty dig. I don't think the torture scenes were necessary, suggestion would've sufficed and compression would've helped, because it those sequences did verge into ZDT territory at times. It was a little soft on Obama, but it's more explicitly critical than any other movie on this level I've seen.

so it isn't politically sound!

ws20 lets have ye

Agree with flappy that The Report's not remarkable, but I liked it too and Adam Driver's very good and felt well cast.

Minor observation... He had a subtle stress tic below his eye in some of the higher stakes scenes that I wondered if he was managing to call up on demand and was impressed by if so. Will be disappointed if that's where any CGI/FX budget went.

so it isn't politically sound!

my dude is way too airbrushed on that Rolling Stone cover

he's in star war mode

amusing passage in there about 'how Marines behave' that I haven't seen in the recruiting materials, Gomer Pyle

did a q&a at MoMA w/ Scott Z Burns after The Report today and JESUS HE'S HUGE

Casting Ted Levine as John Brennan is pretty fucking funny. I guess it may curtail some of the current lib love for the CIA (temporarily) but really, I could've done w/out the lengthy climactic McCain clip.

the McCain moments turned a unboring film into a nothing

well now u sound like Dennis Perrin

flappy bird otm in the (x) movies thread about Dark Waters suffering from watching The Report, but ymmv whether Anne Hathaway's part >>> John McCain necrophilia

theres less McCain than Anne

that the Matthew Rhys reporter character explicitly lays out how Obama had no interest in holding torturers to account is worth something

This is Adam Driver https://t.co/DZV5kX6VA9

ahahaaaa

I hope this whole moment of him becoming a meme, in a way that being in Star Wars itself didn’t, doesn’t fuck him up too much.

I’m afraid anyone who is willingly famous is already kinda fucked up

he's a weird-looking dude and i don't really understand why he's a star or why he seems mysteriously taller than he actually is

i am behind him 100% tho

if someone asks you to not do something and gives you a reasonable explanation as to why you shouldn't, or why it would make them uncomfortable, and there is a reasonable way around the problem that doesn't involve hairsplitting or negotiations, and you do it anyway... like, fuck you, NPR

Also, I have colleagues who can't bear to hear themselves on tape and as a result leave the room.

otm about him seeming mysteriously taller then he is and about people directly going against your wishes, when to not do so would be minimal effort, is an asshole move.

did I miss something about him stalking out of an interview?

also can we all guess how many AD things mook has seen, w/ answer to be revealed on New Years Day?

Two actors from Mishawaka, Indiana share a great scene in Marriage Story. It is surreal.

agree about the interview, very easy to not be an asshole to him there. driver made his wishes clear and there doesn’t seem to be any indication that it’s an act

Terry Gross is the worst.
