  • @valhalla1240
    @valhalla1240 6 років тому +110

    Bo should read Erving Goffman's "The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life". It's a sociological classic, but written in an essayist style, so it's very digestable for someone who doesn't study sociology (not that Bo wouldn't get behind it anyway). It uses the metaphor of the theatre and performance to describe social interactions. The entire premise is essentially that we're never truly alone and we can't not perform, not even in the bathtub, not even when we masturbate. And how our worst fear is social death, or as he puts it: losing our face.

    • @MrFusselig
      @MrFusselig 5 років тому +8

      Yes, I was thinking about Erving Goffman so often during the movie. Even if I am more of a Luhmannist, the idea of "we are all playing theatre" in life fits quite well if you break it down to the individual. It is great, that somebody else noticed the connection to Goffmans work as well :)

    I love this film so much because I can relate to it as someone who is anxious a lot (even though I'm in high school). And this interview seems so genuine and "awkward" in a beautiful way (like Bo said). There's something about this movie and how it was made that feels so real. Even the way the actors acted in the interview is so similar to how they act in the film. I love how Jake and Elsie we're talking about the nugget scene, and it seemed to have a very similar vibe to the actual scene. The whole idea and concept of it is pure genius. I love it.

    • @tilly9647
      @tilly9647 4 роки тому +3

      yes for sure it really is just a bunch of awkward people getting together and bonding over their shared awkward experiences, then making it accessible to a wider audience - us, who can relate and have our experiences validated. i love how elsie fisher says 'i don't really get invited to many pool parties' and then does a thumbs up oh gosh she's so genuine and cute

  • @CrazyEyez62
    @CrazyEyez62 6 років тому +187

    I don’t mind the first 11mins of this video in theory... I do kinda mind that it was apart of this video. It should be more like a video released earlier in the day as a separate video or something. I find it hard to believe the people who specifically come for a in depth interview with filmmakers/artists will be the same people that want a wacky zany sketch before said interview.
    Again, I don’t have a problem with it, it was cute and funny, but it really should be a completely different video.
