My Dinner with Andre (1981)
Mediocre

Just because a movie deals with philosophical and intellectual themes does not mean it's a great movie. While Gregory is great story teller his tales of psydo-pychadellic adventure get tiresome quickly. Had any of the scenes actually been acted out the audience would likely have found them too outlandish and unrealistic to be believable. Gregory's stories do however offer a much needed reprieve from Shawn's annoying world view and even more annoying voice.
While I think that there are lessons in this film and think there's a lot of interesting points made, it's still not a great movie. The acting when not just expounding dialog is awful and awkward. Any part of the script that is not part of a story being told is very heavy handed.
