This video lays things out in three distinct pieces, so make sure you watch all the way through. The first piece is Louis C. K. starting things off with a premise. Then things get good. Then things get great.
Louis C. K., Bradley Cooper, and a triple layer of genius
Brilliant.
Louis C. K. is critical of that tired, patronizing question, “What can I do to reach your level.” I assume his point is that questions should be more specific on what the actor does and nuances of how he does it, rather than “How do I become successful like you?”
To that point, Bradley Cooper is asking a very intelligent and nuanced question. The premise of the video seems to be that in fact, Louis C. K. got egg on his face, because Bradley Cooper is an example of exactly the type of questioner who wouldn’t be successful. It would seem to me, that you and the person who made the video was not able to discern the point of the comments by Louis C. K.
Yup. But the video was fun. 😀
