:30:03
Did I take this job
for a quick buck?
:30:06
We may never know the answers
to these questions. Next week...
:30:11
Come on.
:30:13
[Man] To recap the three movies
that we reviewed this week...
:30:16
here on Critics Corner,
:30:18
Marc and I both gave
a big thumbs up...
:30:20
to the new Swedish film
directed by, uh, Olaf Svensen.
:30:24
Olaf Svensen, called
The Winter of my Despondency.
:30:29
- Haunting abstract symbolism.
- It's arty crap.
:30:33
Jonathan and I did
split, however... [Yawns]
:30:35
On the newest teenage romp
called Frat Slobs.
:30:39
Jonathan, I think,
thought it to be...
:30:41
a light,
frothy soufflé...
:30:44
sizzling with youthful
energy. That I did.
:30:47
On the other hand, I
thought it was pond scum.
:30:51
You're an albino.
What the hell do you know?
:30:53
We have a new feature we'd like
to introduce on Critics Corner...
:30:55
we hope you'll enjoy. We
call it "Real Life Reviews,"
:30:59
in which we critique the life of
an average person just like you.
:31:03
Jonathan will begin with a review
of the life of Harvey Putnik.
:31:08
[Jonathan] No. Pitnik.
Pitnik, of Skokie, Indiana.
:31:11
Illinois.
Illinois.
:31:13
Harvey Pitnik of Skokie, Illinois.
Bernice. Bernice, come here.
:31:16
They're talking about me
on the television.
:31:18
What?
Come here.
:31:20
Harvey Pitnik would seem to have all the
ingredients... [Bernice, Harvey Laugh]
:31:23
For a successful life.
You'd think so.
:31:25
So why does he fail so
miserably? I don't know.
:31:28
I think the problem
is with Harvey himself.
:31:30
What the hell is this?
You're right. It is Harvey.
:31:32
Very good, Jonathan.
It is Harvey.
:31:34
So, we're supposed to care
about this Harvey Pitnik?
:31:37
Why? I mean, it takes him 30 years
to develop any character at all,
:31:43
and by the time he does,
who cares?
:31:45
They're crucifying me.
It's hardly worth the wait.
:31:48
He didn't like Gandhi either.
Let me show you.
:31:51
Here's a scene from last year as
Harvey is coming home from work.
:31:55
