Clerks II

[faethor]

Based on this comment, I went back to see it last night. I don't know that I can agree with this or not. Simply that the role of Randall, the only one he's ever played, seems to be "just that way". Though his voice is not as solid, he comes across to me as a young Dennis Leary sort of "funny man" to Dante's "straight man".

Compare him to Rosario Dawson. I believed her in character. Randall to me seemed like someone trying to be in his friend's movie playing a role not necessary the character. Perhaps 'the only one he's every played' is cuz he can't act. Out of fun I did a search on Jeff Anderson and can't act to see what I could find. To my shigrins I find he agrees with me that he can't act. Jeff Anderson said "I don't know what you're thinking of with that jail scene though. I can't act." http://www.wizarduniverse.com/movies/cl ... 975894.cfm

Though that scene I find him the most believable in so Kevin Smith was right he could do it. I just wish he would have done the rest of the film that way.
