@hnguyendon 5/5 “While the end of a movie is often expected to give us closure, I like to think that Moses' life will go on and that he'll still pursue his dream but also not "be an asshole". haha! Thank you for coming out the film and for your honest feedback. “
@hnguyendon 4/5 “As Gordie, the open mic host is trying to pitch Moses on the idea of hosting the comedy night at the restaurant he also offers it as a chance for Moses to try new material and "get back into shape", which even the best comics need time to do.
@hnguyendon 3/5 “The other thing is that I'm not sure that Moses has accepted mediocrity, but rather he's prioritized compromise. Furthermore, within the confines of that compromise is still an opportunity to get better at his craft (which he isn't very good at)...
@hnguyendon 2/5 which is to say that our culture puts a lot of emphasis on dreams and ambition but not really about HOW we go about doing that. eg. Should we follow dreams at the cost of family and friends? Some people think so but I don't.
