I'm not sure, but I heard you don't want to go up against him in a battle of wits when death is on the line. Or something.

It would be inconceivable not to know he was the guy who went to dinner with Andre

Andre not available for comment.

If it weren't for him, I'd be involved in a land war in Asia right now.

When the job went wrong, Wallace Shawn told me to go back to the beginning!

He was the WHISTLES GO WOO WOOOOO guy, right?

He's doing a talk at UCLA soon. I just saw the Sondheim interview and I'm thinking of hitting the one with Shawn. My Dinner with Andre all over again...

/eh, probably not, but it should still be interesting

He was awesome in "Sideways"

Am I going mad, or did the word 'think' escape your lips?"

Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is "Never get involved in a land war in Asia," but only slightly less well known is this: "Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!"

Someone can get him an ear hair trimmer as a gift.

/Sucks getting old.

He has a prick up his ears.

Damn you Bertram!

I can barely tolerate this guy.

And his dad was a flaming idiot.

I was going to make a "My Dinner with Andre" lunchbox joke.
Weird.

I was waiting in the TSA line to go from LA to NY right after Toy Story 3 came out, and was plesantly surprised to find Mr. Shawn in line immediately ahead of me. I chatted with him for a few minutes, told him how much I appreciated his work, etc. and he was very cordial and conversational throughout the 10' or so wait.

When we got past the detectors, the TSA agent pulled his bag out and told him they needed to do a further inspection. He glanced over to me as I was putting on my shoes and said, "Want to say it with me? Inconceivable!"

/One of my best celebrity moments ever

A "true farker" would know him as "Wally Shawn" from his earliest acting credits and NYC neighbors.

His film work is terrific and all, but he was in an off Broadway production of "Hurlyburly" a few years ago that I had the misfortune to attend.

It was so, so bad. Think of how bad an average play or musical is and multiply it by 1000x. That's how bad it was. So farking bad.

BTW, something really cool? His father was editor of The New Yorker for 35 years.

I liked his film Swimming to Cambodia

While I love the movie, it always gets me how bad some soundtracks are. Not any of the Kenny Loggins soundtracks, but the ones that sound like primitive MIDI files were used for the whole thing. Rocky is another movie that is tough to listen to.
