John C. Reilly is insanely good in this movie. Don Cheadle and William H. Macy both deliver as well.

Agree. PSH was a great, sad, creepy dude as well.

I still say this quote when someone is trying to sell or tell me something that's BS.

This is basic knowledge for a male child of the 80s.

You may be right. I haven't watched it in several years. Just remember relating to that anxiety from having stayed up all night doing coke and just wanting to go to bed but you can't either because you're too coked up, or someone else is and won't leave your house.


Iirc the dude was smoking from a pipe or bong. I doubt he was smoking crack, so most likely he was smoking meth. Also, parading around in a robe and underwear is more of something someone would do while strung out on meth rather than Coke.

I think I read somewhere that PTA kept doing take after take after take in this scene and wouldn't let whalberg sleep so the look on his face is actually real. He was so fried and just wanted to go to bed in real life. Hate it for Whalberg but look at the final result.

I've heard that you've got a great big film, PTA. Do you mind if I see it?

He talks about "baseball", aka free"basing", aka free base cocaine, which is similar to smoking crack.

This is a movie that gets better each time you watch it. Firecracker scene is one of the best scenes in any movie.
