COMMUNITY REVIEWS

A conversation submitted by brooksza on June 18, 2023, 3:39pm Andre is that friend who never stops talking about themselves.

I really like the simplicity of the format, the camera choices and the way other people in the restaurant play a role. The discussions were interesting thought-exercises and were pretty timeless but Andre's pretention really grinded my gears. Wally's retort near the end hit well.

Wally putting on a tie right before walking into a fancy restaurant felt significant. Like he's playing a role that Andre was talking about.
