Agreed that this is a great monologue & movie, but what I find striking is that over the past few years I've become convinced that boredom is, in fact, good, in that it leads directly to creative output. I get most of my best thinking done when I'm forced to be bored, by not being able to be online.
This Film often has the piss taken out of it for being a rather sedentary piece about 2 people just talking a lot — BUT — it has one of the most brilliantly prescient monologues in the history of Movies imho. MY DINNER WITH ANDRE (1981) Have a listen.
