These two are wonderful. They should make a whole movie of just the two of them talking to each other.

The only sequel to "My Dinner With Andre" we'll ever get, apparently. And I'll treasure it.

I love these two. The way they talk in such a calm demeanor, their thoughts on film...I could listen to them all day.

I love how Andre kept the momentum going by constantly asking questions probably one of my favorite closet videos

I can sit and listen to the talking all day long without getting bored.

It breaks my heart that any man can feel such regret over a work of art. It comforts me to know that I'm not alone in that feeling of actually feeling alone.

"Oh look there's our box set!" doesn't even go near it LMFAO.

A breath of fresh air in a polluted world. I send these clips off to my teens & other young ones. When they tell me they enjoyed it I get an enormous thrill. Sharing wisdom, knowledge, respect & delving into the arts is how we’ll be saved. Sharing with the young is our duty & when it impacts it’s a wonderful event.

Just hearing these guys talk to each other is a delight. Wonderful people.

Wallace's description of seeing Godard's Weekend is much the same as when I saw Godard's Alphaville: HATED it and then the next couple days discovered that I couldn't stop thinking about it, quickly realizing it had suddenly become one of my all time favorite films!

My favorite thing about this is that Gregory called Shawn "Wally." I love these two!
