Such a stupid movie.
Thank you for saying that about Being There. I saw it in the 1990’s on TV and couldn’t understand why everyone made such a fuss about it. I realized then that I had no appreciation for cinematic “art” and stopped going to movies, except when I had a craving for overpriced theatre popcorn or I was taking a bunch of kids to a movie.
Wasn’t Forrest Gump the same kind of movie - one where the protagonist is held up by the world as a genius when he can barely get his shoes on the right feet? I didn’t see that one either. Maybe both movies were intended to be previews of the current pResident.
