Hey folks, Harry here.... You might remember that I wrote a big piece about Michael Bowman... that cool as shit albino guy from ME, MYSELF AND IRENE. He started out over a year ago as just your average white guy... and he Makes ME, MYSELF AND IRENE and gets international fame.... Has he turned into a psychotic ego monster? Did he get a full body pigment tattoo so he could be a lifeguard on BAYWATCH? Or is he still just that great guy he was over a year ago? I sent the gorgeous and voluptuous Dorothy Parker in her square shouldered business suit with that minidress and the stockings with the seam up the back to track him down... and do the reality check.... Here is... Michael Bowman and Dorothy Parker.... Enjoy....
Michael Bowman interview 8/9/00 12:30 a.m.
DP Do want to start at the top of the list and see where it
goes?
MB Sure, I don't have it in front of me, but
the first question you asked me I do remember. Which
was what I think the differences are between stage
acting and film acting. To be honest, that's something that I
don't really feel that qualified to answer since
I've only been in this one film and
my only real stage acting was high
school. The only visible difference is that (in film) you
get to do it as many times as you want and um, Jim
Carrey was watching-- (laughs) that was a big difference.
DP I suppose that would be a little bit scarier, too-a
much more demanding audience.
MB It was intense-That part of the
whole experience was really fun.
DP Okay. That's an interesting point though-if you say
that that part of the experience was fun-over all
what did you think of the entire experience?
MB It was really negative to be honest, I'm ah--I'm a
twenty-five-year-old bitter man! (Laughs) But really
though, I don't have too many positive things to say about
that business.
DP Do you feel like you're probably going to avoid it
after this?
MB Well, I haven't gotten an agent and I haven't found
any work. I haven't pursued it really in any way and I'm
not sure if eventually I will pursue it, but for
right now, I have no desire to.
DP We could move on to some of the other questions--
MB Either way.
DP Okay-well I'm curious about this "I'm a twenty-five
-yea r-old bitter man"! (Laughing)
MB Well I try to remind myself how much fun I had when
I was doing the actual filming because really, it was
brilliant and it was fun and it was intense and I enjoyed
it, but beyond that there's been over a year of nonstop
bullshit really. I came into this thing not knowing
anything, period about this business -I teach autistic
kids for a living--and the Hollywood movie business was
the furthest thing from my head. I kind of got a
baptism by fire in that all of a sudden I found myself in
this car with the casting director (Rick Montgomery)
on my way back from
this mansion where I'd just met Jim Carrey and Peter
and Bobby Farrelly. They had just told me that I had the part
and all of a sudden I'm in a car with this
casting director and a producer and we're driving
away from there and I'm thinking, "Wow this is really
strange and surreal." We weren't even out of the
driveway and right away Montgomery is saying something like
"wow you're so lucky, you're so lucky because most
people in this business, in this situation would need to
have an agent and a lawyer and a manager, but you're
so lucky because these people are so great they'll
take care of everything for you." At that point I
didn't have the insight
into the business to know that the casting director works
for the producers, who work for the studio and that the
casting director wants to get all his actors to the studio
for as little as possible so that the producers can make more
money and then they'll hire him as casting director again. I
didn't understand any of that-
DP So this guy in the car is blowing sunshine up your
butt-
MB Exactly, he set it up right from the start.
-- I'm a good judge of character and Pete Farrelly is a
great guy and Jim Carrey and Bobby Farrelly are great
guys and I could tell that right away. I knew that they were
people that wouldn't have any interest in screwing me
over, you know? But what I didn't realize was the people
that work for them -the producers that I'm actually dealing
with- have different motives
altogether and that's the business.
But my firsthand experience of all this was being a
teacher who's all of a sudden given a contract twenty
minutes before I was supposed to film my first scene
with Jim Carrey and being told that until I sign it
everyone has to wait, and I'm thinking "Well, this is less than my
original deal, but this casting director says he's
acting as my agent and he's hooking me up with a
good deal and I don't want everyone's first impression of
me to be that I'm an asshole."
DP That you're causing problems--
MB Yeah, that I'm making a big deal out of (laughs)
demanding the legal minimum! You know, but that's the
way it goes, that's the way that business goes-- If you
don't have anyone looking out for you, no matter how
nice the directors are you are going to be taken
advantage of. The directors are busy
men, they're in charge of making the film; but they don't
know what goes on around it.
DP Right. Anyone else who's working on it, regardless
of what you think of their character, they're not
necessarily gonna be able to chaperone or know what 's
gong on with you.
MB No, it was just naivete on my part believing, well, since
The Farrelly's are good people, and these producers who
work for them are friends of theirs, then I guess I can
trust them. And of course, you know (laughing) if you
watch enough True Hollywood Stories you learn right
away that you're not supposed to trust anyone! But
see, I didn't have cable until after this whole thing So I didn't
know any of that.
DP (laughing)"If I only had cable!" You had said that
you were working in software quality assurance-
MB Yeah, but that was years ago, years ago,
DP Did you end up having to deal with a lot of the
business end there? I work really closely with
someone's who's the owner of his own company so
within the past year I've seen, in the business world, it's
not honorable, it's not nice, it's "Can you get away with
it?"
MB No, I didn't have any business sense, This was
capitalism 101 for me really. Actually, washing dishes
and being paid 6 dollars an
hour to teach severely autistic kids has been capitalism
101, but this was the advanced course. (Laughs) Yeah,
but you know, I learned a lot and I had some great
experiences. I got to do something that a lot of people
would love to do. There is a line I really love from a
fantastic film that I saw the other day (The Girl on
the Bridge). I'm sure I won't say it
exactly, but it was "Everyone thinks that luck is the thing
that hasn't happened to them." When I was
auditioning I was thinking,
"Ah man, this would be the greatest luck if this
happens!" And I just wasn't ready for the amount of
flaming shit covered hoops you have to jump through.
DP This question was my big deal: The Farrelly brothers
use such a broad spectrum of actor, right down to the
extras they hire. Do you feel that they attempt to cross
and break typecasting barriers in a positive way?
MB Do I think that they attempt that? Yes, I definitely
do. I think they are very conscious of that. Specifically
because they're really good people. Take my character in
this movie for instance--he 's this albino character that's
being made fun of- the main reason I did it is
because Peter Farrelly wrote it. I know the way he feels
about things and I know that the very fact that he had
me do it instead of some dude in powder make-up really
says a lot about him. Because I don't think that
what he's doing is poking fun at people quite so
much as most people think he is.
DP Like you were saying, the fact that they chose you
rather than to put actor in there with make-up and
powder and all this bullshit on, they want the realism of
it, they want to be sympathetic towards it but at the
same time, the humor is not derogatory. On the surface
I suppose if a shallow person is watching There's
Something About Mary for the billionth time and they're
looking at this MR kid, they'd say "Oh, yeah, they're
making fun of retarded people--"
MB For me, I think the only ethical problem in it is that
so many morons DO see their movies. A lot of them actually do
take it that way. To be honest I have a lot of problem
with the fact that some poor kid who has albinism out in
Ohio is going to be called "Whitey" because I did this
movie. Because when I was his age if someone called
me "Whitey"... I mean that was horrible, that would break
me, it was the thing that could crush me. I think that
everyone has, when they're a kid, something that if
someone pushes that button---it's a horrible feeling. And
for a lot of people, if your family's messed up, or
your dad's an alcoholic, or he beats you or
something--most people aren't going to know that. But if
you're a little kid that has albinism, first of all, you're
blind, and so you can't see the people that are teasing
you, and second of all, you're wearing what it is, that
button for you, you're wearing it right there for
everyone to see-you're an
easy easy easy target. So for me this is an ethical
problem, Because I feel if me doing this in some way
effects a kid in that way, then I have a problem with
it.
DP Have you gotten any flack about it?
MB A little bit. I know that there are a lot of
people that have albinism that feel I'm a sell out
for playing Whitey. They feel that it's hurtful, and I
don't fault them for that opinion really. That's the
minority of the people that have albinism that I've talked
to. But still, there are people I know that are hurt by it,
whether or not the intent was malicious. Like I said, a lot of
the people that see these films are morons. (Laughs)
For better of worse, it's made the Farrellys rich. Still, I
think they actually have a pretty esoteric sense of
humor. I think that their stuff is really funny on a lot of
levels, but that doesn't change the fact that a lot of
people are gonna see their movies and not get it. I
don't fault them for making the movies that they make, but still I
have to hold myself up to that-wondering if
something I've done is hurtful to someone else. If
it is then I'm not
that down with it.
DP That leads into the next question, because when you
were saying that, in my mind, I'm thinking of several
arguments against that-a girl I knew had albinism and
for the most part nobody really -In high school that's
usually the time when people start ripping you up-
MB No. It starts in elementary school and it's
worse in junior
high-well, for me, well--for most people that I've talked
to. In high school I found a subculture of people who
thought it was cool to be a freak, and so I got to dye my
hair with Kool-Aid and go to punk shows and some people
thought I was cooler because I didn't have to try so
hard to be
different. But a lot of kids growing up in Montana and
in Missouri and you know, Iowa, aren't that lucky. I
just went to this International Albinism
conference in Massachusetts. I just went there three
weeks ago- and it just blew my mind to walk in
this room and see all these people who look like me of
every race, of every background, every age,
everything. It just
really blew my mind. I talked to a lot of people who are in
elementary school and in junior high school and high
school and a lot of them got it really bad... I was really
lucky. I had supportive friends in high school, and a lot
of people don't. It's hard being different no matter what
it is, but like I said, if you're an albino, you're an easy
target, and on top of that you can't see the person and
that makes it worse. But that's my take on that.
DP In other films how do you feel about the portrayal of
people with albinism?
MB It's always been negative. It's always "The Albino";
it's always a freak.
DP The hitman or the bad guys--
MB Yeah, It's always the villain. Actually in
the original script for Irene, the last line is that Whitey
comes back with a hammer and hacks up Charlie,
Irene, and the kids-which I actually thought was
funny, but I know that a lot of other people who have
albinism would have had a big problem with that. I do think
that Hollywood certainly isn't helping. It is hurting
actually. I know it is hurting. Anything that adds to the
stigma of people who already feel stigmatized isn't a
helpful thing. But, you know, (laughs) Hollywood's got
a few other problems too, so it's not that shocking to
know that they're not sensitive to the twenty
thousand or so of
us in the United States that-- (still laughing) I'm not that
shocked, you know?
DP They're also kind of flying under the radar, you know
if you grab a guy on the street, "Okay, do you know
someone with albinism? No?"
MB No-But you know what they do know? They know
the albinos from movies. And that's there. That is real.
That does effect the way that people see me and the
other people who have the same condition that I do. It
does effect us in a tangible way. It does add to the
stigmatism-- Whether or not you could expect Hollywood
to do better is, well... I don't think that's ever
going to be
likely.
But you know, in some ways it is improving. I was cast
for this, and there's another actor with albinism cast in
that Arnold Schwarzenegger movie, the End of Days,
(Victor Varnado) who's now filming -I think it just finished
filming actually- a lead in the next Eddie Murphy
movie. I think that's cool. That is an
improvement even if all that Jim Carrey's doing is
making fun of Whitey in Irene, at least now people
will know what someone who has albinism actually
looks like.
DP Also in the film a lot of the dialog is actually a little
bit more illuminating than if you asked Joe Blow on the
street -they don't know anything about vision
problems---
MB Exactly. I think that' s good, because people don't
realize that-- That the most significant aspect of albinism
is that most of us are legally blind. That impacts
my daily life more than the fact that I have different
pigmentation or I burn easily. That's a big deal, and no
one knows that, so for me just the fact that I'm wearing
my bioptic telescope glasses is positive. Still, most people
aren't even going to pick that up. They're going to
think, "Oh that's another random thing they threw into
the script-"
DP But at least the idea is out there.
MB Well, yeah, still the idea is out there. You know, I
have people that I tell I'm legally blind to and they don't
believe me? "Oh? What do you mean? You can't see
me?" "Okay man, I don't want to talk about
this--"(laughs)
DP In the joke about Phoenix-Beyond the glasses, the
next thing up would be that people may not stop and
think about other things that lack of pigmentation would
effect. I almost wanted to argue with you when you said
that you felt bad that if there was some kid out there
being called Whitey that -
MB Almost everyone I say that to argues with me-But
still, I have to hold myself up to a higher standard
than other
people hold me up to, you know? And actually most
people that have albinism that I talk to-Most parents of
kids that have albinism that I talk to-still do think that in
the end, me being in this movie does more good than
harm. Even if some
idiot is gonna call some kid a name, you know they're
probably gonna call the kid a name anyway, and on top
of that it does raise awareness. People are, I assume,
going to be reading this? Even though AICN educated
readers compared to
other places, still most of the people reading this
might not have known that albinism effects vision. So
who knows? Any little thing is positive I think
when it comes to educating people.
DP I was just realizing that I think my next question is
probably moot, which was: how do you feel about actors
without albinism playing characters with albinism?
MB Well you know, I'd rather I got jobs. (Laughs)
DP No shit! (Laughing) You get the casting directory
and it's like "Well, okay, we've got five actors in here,
they have albinism but we don't want them!"
MB It's me and Victor! You can have the African or
Caucasian variety but uh, I'd rather it just be between
the two of us! (Laughs) Oh, I tell ya, that's purely
selfish.
DP But that's what would put bread and butter on the
table-- Why do you think that is? Why do you think they
would go towards hiring someone else rather than
someone who actually has albinism?
MB Why? Because, (still laughing) up until now we've
been hard to find.
DP Do you credit the Internet with that?
MB Oh yeah, that's how I got the part. So of course I
do. And like I was saying, I was really interested in
acting all through high school but then when I came to
college it was, "Oh, am I gonna study theatre? Well,
nobody's gonna cast me." How many real albinos have
you seen in movies? I haven't. Me, Victor, and the girl in
Gummo, right?
DP You're right, at the moment I can name half a billion
movies that we've got some guy in powder playing an
albino, but I can't think of any film where they've actually
-other than Irene-where they've actually hired an actor
with albinism.
MB Well, Victor was in End of Days, and he'll be in
this new Eddie
Murphy film. I can't remember the premise exactly, but
Victor's some kind of intergalactic- space -pimp-
assassin or something-It's pretty bad assed- I know
that he gets to
shoot lasers and (laughing) that's a step up from any
previous portrayals of albinism, so that's positive.
DP How did you feel about Harry's advocating that you
play the inbred albino Satanist--?
MB I like Harry's sense of humor.
DP You know, sometimes I wonder if he makes that shit
up. You know he's really bad with practical jokes.
MB I bought it--I'm still waiting for Fox to call me!
DP So what are some of your favorite older movies?
MB Older movies? The first one that comes to mind is
Harvey. For some reason I love Harvey. It's a great
movie.
DP Are you a big Jimmie Stewart fan in general?
MB Yeah. I even bought his book of poetry when I was
a teenager. (starts laughing) I can recite the
entire poem of My
Dog Named Beau about his dog that died. "He never
came to me when I would call, unless I had a tennis ball,
or he felt like it, but mostly he just didn't come at
all"-(cracks up) I could go on. You don't think I can, but
I could go on -No, I am a Jimmie Stewart fan, definitely.
But I have that hopeless idealist in me. I want to believe
that the world can be like Harvey, you know? But uh,
I'm kind of in the closet about it. I'm a closet idealist.
DP Well you know it's not fashionable to not be a cynic
in public.
MB Exactly, but I do like Jimmie Stewart, so I guess I
just debunked everything I said.
DP Ah, you're not bitter-- So, Mr. Smith Goes to
Washington-- did you cry?
MB I didn't cry. But the first time I saw it I might have
got chills-- (Laughs) Oh my God, totally. This is gonna
go out to a billion people and I just admitted -
(Cracking up throughout)
DP Oh no, that's a keeper!
MB It's true. I'm 25 years old and I love Jimmie Stewart!
DP Do you have a favorite film genre?
MB Good ones.
DP You're not one of these people that's "I have to go
see the next cannibal movie, I have to see the next
comedy--"
MB No, not really, but I'm like that about good films.
Films that come highly recommended, I suppose. I have
a lot of friends that are big film fans, and I've
learned that I have similar tastes, so I go see what
they tell me. And they're usually right. But no, I don't
really have a favorite genre--
DP So you have favorite actors or directors?
MB Right now my favorite directors are probably Paul
Thomas Anderson and the Coen brothers.
DP Yeah, the Coen brothers rock.
MB I don't know why, I might be a sucker, but I really
love Magnolia, I think it's a fantastic film.
DP Magnolia was beautiful.
MB Yeah, so that has me highly biased towards him right
now.
DP Okay, you said you like the Coen brothers; which
one's your favorite?
MB The Big Leibowski.
DP What's the last good book you've read? And this is
closely followed by what book would you most like to
see made into a movie?
MB Boy, that's a good question. Oh God though, that's
a hard question. Any real good book, I wouldn't want to
sacrifice to that--
DP Have you ever seen a movie that you thought was
better than the book?
MB Oh have I? One might exist, but I
can't think of it though.
DP I can only think of one. Have you ever seen the
Loved One?
MB Nope. It's really great?
DP You need to see this movie.
MB I'm writing it down right now.
DP Yeah, definitely write this down-it's a satire of the
funeral industry.
MB (laughs) Oh, it already sounds good.
DP Yeah, I'm not even gonna tell you anything else
about it-But Rod Steiger is a god in this film!
MB You're other question was what was the last book
that I'd read. Today I finished a book called The
Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino. It's short prose poetry
set up like stories that Marco Polo's telling to Kubla
Khan. Before that I just finished Fragrant Palm Leaves by a
Vietnamese monk named Thich Nhat Hanh-- he's a
real bad ass. I've read a bunch of his books but this is
his journal from the 60's. Those are the last two
books I've read.
DP Do you tend to lean towards things that are a bit
more esoteric like that?
MB I'm a comparative religion and mythology major, so
yeah I do.
DP You mentioned that prior to Irene you were working
with autistic children. How did this come about and will
you continue to do this?
MB Yeah, I will continue to do that. That's what I'm
good at and it's what makes me feel good, and that's
something that's grounded in reality in a way that the
movie business never will be. And, I don't know I'm an
insomniac, and when I'm doing that job I sleep well.
DP How did you land that job?
MB It was synchronicity to be honest. I'm fascinated
by synchronicity-fingers pointing through the clouds,
you know? I graduated from college at the end of the
summer and I had about four months where I just
freaked out because I was "Oh, now what the fuck do I
do?" (Laughs) I had a comparative religion and
mythology degree-- and my minor in Jungian
psychology is really gonna be very practical! So now
I'm gonna be able to
completely grasp the esoteric significance of the fact
that I'm washing dishes for the rest of my life! So I
kind of freaked out for a few months. I kept
thinking, "Oh I gotta go to temp agencies, I gotta go get
this office job." And I wouldn't do it, and it just started
getting so frustrating because I was living with my
parents and I was broke and I was just totally
unsure of what to do with my life. I remember it was December 23rd
and I had
just had this long talk with myself--so you know the
insomnia can be quite productive sometimes. I said, you
know "The reason that you're not going to interview
for any of these office jobs is
because you hate them, and because they make you
crazy." And that was like this bolt of lightning, I was like,
"Oh wow, that's true. You do hate them. They do make
you crazy. That is why you haven't done that." And
then I started thinking more about what I wanted to do.
I had some very good friends that teach autistic kids and
right prior to that all of them had separately mentioned
to me, "Oh well have you ever thought about that? I
think you'd be very good at it." So that seeded it in my
brain, but it wasn't anything that
I studied in college so I just didn't think that I'd
be able to
find anything really. But anyway, it was on
December 23rd that
I made up my mind. I said I don't care what it is, the
Monday after New Years I'm gonna be working. I don't
care if I'm cleaning toilets or whatever; this is just no
good sitting here freaking out about not working. Then
the next day I looked in the paper and I saw an opening
for an assistant teacher teaching autistic children, and it
turned out that the contact person who runs the
program was the father of my best friend when I was in
7th grade. He was someone who I always really got
along with so I applied for the job. And that's how I
found it and I started working on the Monday after New
Years and it's the best thing I've ever done in my life. So
yes, I will continue doing that -maybe not in that same
program for very long, but I think it's something that I
feel very good about doing in my life.
DP What types of roles would you like to be offered? If
you were going to continue acting?
MB To be honest, the short answer is "any" right now
because I'm poor. (Laughs) That's the short answer,
okay, I'd do herpes commercials right now -but, the
longer answer is that I'd like to be in anything where I
was a character who happened to have albinism who
wasn't just the albino character. That'd be
great. That'd be a real positive thing. But I don't think
(laughs) that I've got that kind of luxury!
DP No. Not yet. I honestly think that stuffs changing.
Or at least I hope that it is
MB We'll see though, I don't know. I thought Irene was
gonna come out better and I thought Whitey was gonna
come out better. Now, I don't really expect
anything else to come
out of it.
DP Well, that brings up another question that I didn't
write down, but it did occur to me -Okay, I've got two in
my head, let's see if I can hold on to both of them. One
of them was that you had mentioned that when you read
the script for Irene, there was a lot of stuff in it
that didn't
make it into the movie.
MB Yeah, of course, they wrote a script for a four hour
movie, (laughing) which you could argue was something
of a lapse in judgement-
DP That's true. You don't deviate away from the-- what
is it? -The one hundred and fifty pages-The End.
MB A comedy goes on for 110 minutes and you don't go
over that, and everyone knows it. But they figure well, you
film three, three and a half hours and then the audience
tells you what's funny. That's hard if you have a movie
where there's originally somewhat of a complex plot.
Not that every thing was really explained and fleshed out
in graphic detail-but there was some plot, and there was
some character development. I think Whitey functioned
originally in the script as a really funny way to tie it all
together, but then you take out the plot, that Whitey was
gonna be tying together and all
of sudden it's "Oh what the hell's that guy doing there?
That's just this half assed way to move the plot along."
But actually in the script I thought it worked great -I don't
know Ebert says it didn't work, so I don't know if
they're rethinking why they hired me. (laughing and
using psychotic hiss) Ah! Fucking Ebert! I'm gonna kick
your fucking ass!
DP Hey man, Ebert wrote Valley of the Dolls-
MB No he didn't! Did he?
DP Yes!
MB Are you serious?
DP I shit you not! Go look on the IMDB!
MB Someone wrote that?
DP Yes! Maybe it was Beyond the Valley of the Dolls-I
don't know. It was something that was two steps away
from a good Russ Meyer movie
MB This makes me feel so much better! Ha ha ha
Ha! Oh that's so great! I don't even care if that's not
true! I think that's a great rumor to start--
DP It's absolutely true! I would not lie to you!
MB (still laughing) Oh that's great!
(Roger Ebert has given us three Russ Meyer movies:
Beyond the Valley of the Dolls 1970, Up! 1976, and
Beneath the Valley of the Ultra Vixens 1979.)
DP On the script-- Out of what was cut from the movie,
can you think of anything in particular that you really
wished hadn't been?
MB I wish that Lin Shaye's character hadn't been cut out.
She's the old lady in (There's Something About) Mary
and the landlord in Kingpin. I just think she's great.
And there was this whole long subplot with her. She
was this crazy woman who was having a yard sale when
Irene and Charlie stop and ask for directions 'cause
they're trying to get more medication for him but they
don't realize the police are waiting for them at this drug
store. Instead of helping, she just rants on and on and on,
while she chain smokes butts. It was just so great in the
script and Lin Shaye I think is great a brilliant actress. I
met her at the cast and crew screening and I just think
she's really cool. I wish I'd gotten to see it. But anyway
that's how they get the Jarts (lawn darts) originally.
She's this crazy woman trying to sell them Jarts even
though all they want is directions and goes on this long
rant about how they're illegal now. You can't get them
and that's what Waco Texas was about--just the man
stepping on our rights. It was just this awesome rant.
That was one of the
biggest subplots that got cut out, but I think it would
have been great. But like I said, they filmed a three and
a half-hour movie.
DP I'm gonna have to dig through Harry's script pile now
and find that.
MB It's a good script -if he's got the
original script especially. The original script is better than
the last shooting draft. It has some other really funny
scenes like there's a scene where Charlie wants to be a
hip and modern dad and so he's trying to teach the boys
Ebonics in the bathtub. He's like: "What is this? What
is this?" And they're like, "It's a bathtub!" and he's "No!"
"Uh, it's a mother fucking bathtub?" "Nooo!" And then
finally it's, "OH! Itsa muthahfuckin' BAFFtub!" And there
was a bunch of stuff like that that would've been
really funny scenes. That one I don't
actually think they filmed because they wanted to go in
a slightly different direction. Still, they filmed
a ton of stuff
that didn't go in, and it's too bad because I think that
everything that Jim films is brilliant. He's such a bad
ass at what he does, and there's just hours and hours of
hysterically funny stuff that Fox has in their vaults
somewhere. I hope at least they put some of it on the DVD. I
mean, I doubt Fox has the sense to actually do that but,
maybe they will. It'd be a funny DVD if they did.
DP Either that or we can pray for a director's cut.
MB I wonder if they'll do that .I don't know if they will. I
hope they do.
DP I don't think comedies get the same respect full
treatment as stuff like Blood Simple the director's cut.
MB --It woiuld be a shame to miss that twenty minute
scene at the end where
Whitey kills every body and then has sex with
Charlie!
DP You're joking right?
