Why I want to meet Michael Showalter
Then I say something.
Charlie Kaufman is, for me, to movies what Kurt Vonnegut is to prose.
Basically, genius.
The Eden Express is a beautiful and haunting story. There’s so much I want to ask him about.
Kurt Vonnegut has been my favorite author since I read Slaughterhouse 5. He is an amazing writer and philosopher, and one of the first people who I’ve been influenced by without actually meeting. I’d love to meet him, but I think I’d just be super inarticulate and mildly creepy.
Anyone who can be a Newsie, Patrick Bateman AND Batman has to be worth meeting.
