this is a fucking GREAT interview.. John is an amazing actor... the dramatic truth to the story made me get it IMMEDIATELY when i started seeing the flashbacks.. i love it.. thank you doing this but also thank you John for being fucking iconic
I love the way this man thinks. He's seems like such a genuine & good soul. Plus he killed Joe exotic. I've never heard of him before watching Joe vs carole.
He nailed the essence of Joe & Carole's personality in a very compassionate take 👏
Love this interview. I'm enjoying Joe vs Carol right now. I loved Hedwig and the angry inch. He is a wonderful actor.
I didn't see tiger king . But I'm watching this. This guy is 59 Seriously what is his secret he looks absolutely amazing I thought he was maybe 40
fuck.. I honestly had no idea who john was before this show. hes phenomenal in this show. I'm gunna look up hedwig and whatever else hes done. this show is so wonderful in the way it humanizes joe and carole. the Netflix show just didnt. it made them feel like cartoon characters performing
I was floored by the show, joe is so much of a caricature- that the whole time I was asking myself if this was a joke? I had to come watch something to ground it in reality. Is he unaware that’s he’s made a parody of joe? Maybe it’s just me. Now that he mentions it-Nick cage would have been awesome.
