But where's the great movie where he doesn't play the straight man, allowing others to do weird things around him? It's a tough job, no knock, but it's off the mark to me to talk about him as greatest living actor

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.
