I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

She is sooooo fucking cool, so fucking cool. I want an Americans movie now.

i've said this before on RM, but she was a daily regular in the coffee shop I used to work at in Brooklyn. She would come in like 4-5 times a week at like 7am. Her skin is flawless, her eyes are amazing, and she projects a sense of genuine kindness and humility.

I wish she'd been better in Burn This.

I agree. But then I also wonder if she would have stood out more if she was cast opposite someone other than Adam Fucking Driver, who I'm starting to think is one of the best actors of all time.

Yeah, Adam is a revelation and I agree -- one of the best actors of all time. Still, she didn't deliver. I think she was really inside her body and uncomfortable. It has to be more than just being opposite Adam. Honestly, great actors, like Adam, elevate those around them. That didn't happen on stage and I'm not comfortable blaming Adam for that because as you say he's a goddamn genius. I blame the director. Clearly, Keri didn't know what to do with her body on stage. She was clearly uncomfortable and struggling.

I also thought it was interesting that the playbill didn't mention a single prior stage performance for her. I'm sure there are some somewhere, but maybe she's really green in that arena?

Can’t be easy to act against him never mind fight him

Joe this reminds me of one of my favorite parts in Burn This, when Driver is on his knees pounding the stage. I was in the balcony and could feel it.
