"When asked if he’d ever seen his movie Jaws: The Revenge, (Caine) famously quipped: ‘Never. I hear it’s terrible. However, I have seen the house it built and that’s terrific.’"
Oh my. So you hated the movie. I thought it was cute and it entertained me just fine. It's a light piece of fluff, like cotton candy--when I eat something at the fairgrounds I don't expect nutrition, and when I see a movie like this I don't expect Citizen Kane. Lighten up. (Also: It was nice to see such a great senior cast, regardless of the material.)
You can tell because this is the first leftie-publication article in 20 years that mentions Garden State without using the phrase "manic pixie dream girl."
It's not about the band's success (though I'm sure it didn't hurt sales any, either).
The Beta Band did fine, too. HIgh Fidelity didn't make their career, but it mythologized them, turned them into a metaphor that can't be undone in our lifetime.
