Silver Screen Fiend: Learning About Life from an Addiction to Film by Patton Oswalt
4.0
Pretty good. I'm going through a film binge myself right now, so it was fun recognizing every esoteric director/film and thinking about how we thought largely the same things.
Also interesting how when Oswalt wrote for MadTV, he didn't think it was a bid deal and just played videogames the entire time. I fear that's exactily what I would do if I ever landed a writing gig somewhere; I wouldn't think it was that important, even if it was, because that's all life ever is.
Well. I should probably go watch some Oswalt standup now, because I've never seen a minute.
