my favorite male characters: stanley barber

It’s the opposite of lame, Syd. It’s theater. It’s live theater. Westinghouse Memorial High School on a Friday night. What could be more tragic? More Shakespearean? Think about it. The moment the lights come up on Hamlet, you know it’s not gonna end well. Take, uh…Mr. Bradley Lewis. His best case scenario is, what, managing some regional insurance sales company where he gets to, I don’t know, call the shots on Employee of the Month? I mean, these are the people that will actually attend the 5, 10, 20-year reunion, because, aside from this, nothing else all that noteworthy is gonna happen. This is as good as it gets for them. And I like watching ‘em, like Hamlet, when everything goes to shit in the end…and everyone dies.
