  1. Between last week’s oral history of Boogie Nights on Grantland and this week’sPaul Thomas Anderson WTF interview, this past month has been a treat for those of us who can’t get enough Boogie Nights behind-the-scenes stories. The most recent one that stuck out to me is a story from WTF about Burt Reynolds’ line read of “Nevertheless.”

    I couldn’t find an embeddable version online, but if you remember the movie, there’s a scene where Mark Wahlberg is screaming at Burt Reynolds’s character, demanding to shoot a scene, and Reynolds is telling him that he can’t shoot it because he’s been up for two days. Dirk protests that he hasn’t been up for two days, at which point in the original script, Jack Horner says “Nevertheless, you don’t look good and I’m not going to shoot you this way,” or something to that effect. Meanwhile, Horner’s cameraman. played by Ricky Jay(pictured, right) holds them apart.

    ANDERSON: Every time Burt said ‘Neverthless,’ I kept noticing something was happening to Ricky’s face. I said ‘What’s going on?’

    And he said, ‘I can’t… I’m suppressing laughter when he says Nevertheless.’

    I asked why, and he told me this great story, of being at a football game where this woman is being introduced to sing the national anthem, and her name is Helen Forrest or whatever it is. And the announcer says, ‘And now to sing the National Anthem, Helen Forrest.’

    And somebody in the stands screams, ‘HELEN FORREST SUCKS COCK.’

    And the announcer [without missing a beat] says, ‘Nevertheless…’ [WTF]

    Anderson says every time the film comes on cable, he can’t help but notice the pained expression on Ricky Jay’s face during that scene.

    My b. Yeah, meant to quote the post about the best non-brisket sammich in Texas.

    And I’m sure the guy that made that comment has eaten every non-brisket in the state. Since he stated it was THE best non-brisket sammich in the state. How else would he know?

     

    have you eaten every non-brisket sammich in the state?   

  4. I enjoy being not invited to Thanksgiving because "the house is already too crowded"

    3 bed, 2 bath house, 1 bedroom made into an office, 1 bedroom made into a workout room, leaving an air mattress, another air mattress, a couch, a sofa, and the master bedroom for 5 people with me being the 5th.

    I’ll wait for someone thoughtful to join the discussion, until then I’m bowing out.

    Seriously, ugh dudes.
