Fancy Movie Time #29: Being There (1979)
Added 2025-05-23 16:07:53 +0000 UTCOn this episode of Fancy Movie Time with Brian and A.J., the Fancy Lads groove to Also Sprach Zarathustra and save the economy as they cover Hal Ashby's 1979 Gumpfest: Being There. Do this movie's melancholy tone and memorable performances make it a Fancy Feast? Or do its static characters and moderate incoherence make it a Failure to Fancy? One thing's for sure: somebody in Maine is gonna get moidered.

I didn't expect to be called out like this, but resident maine listener here. It's all true, all of it. And I DO live less than a block from Stephen King's house, and that fence has a kill count. Literally a deer impaled themselves on it a few years ago.
