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.

Totally. Also he's lifeless in Power of the Dog. Pugh has yet to give a performance as uninspired as that one.The Argonaut wrote:Plemons is great.
