@thomasgoodin your dumbass comment was even more amusing than the clip, which is quite the compliment...

Anyone who's read "Story" might catch this little nugget of brilliance: while Kaufman is narrating how he doesn't want to take McKee's course, only to listen to McKee's advice on narration, McKee is drawing a diagram of "the gap": the moment in a story where one's actions (Kaufman not wanting to take McKee's course for fear of easy answers) lead to an opposite or greater effect than expected (McKee giving advice that Kaufman takes seriously).
And THAT is why this is one of my favorite films.

this film has sooooo many layers to it its mind blowing,
people dont realize it
one example (a minor one) is simply how he screams out about voiceover and how bad it is, and thats actually charlie kauffman making a direct comment on himself, because the nicholas cage is actual in the middle OF a voiceover when brian cox screams out about how voiceovers are bad. this film is brilliant
