Patton Oswalt - "To Be Loved & Understood" 

When he turns on the camera crew & director in the lobby…"Why do you need this?" My answer "Because only once in every few decades or so, does someone come along who says things or creates things that you can't stop looking at or listening to: Michelangelo, John Steinbeck, Bob Dylan, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. There are some things in this universe that are mind-blowing in their beauty: images of star nebulas from the Hubble, that footage of butterflies from that National Geographic show. Taking a camera to show the world footage of you pressing elevator buttons is the closest I will ever get to this kind of greatness or beauty. We all want to hear what you have to say. I want to hear what you have to say. You are my hero." And at the end of that, I would crack like Frank Oz speaking at Jim Henson's funeral ("That's when I knew he loved me…and I love him"), and walk off, crying.

"Look at that office. Look at that poor face" Patton, you're looking at my job and making me sad.

That guy at the beginning looks SO MUCH like Blaine Capatch, that it's scary!

look at him wearing those $200 sunglasses and talking about depression

Eating a good burger and listening to Patton Oswalt would be the shit

it's b-roll, dude. settle down

that's one moody lesbian

DO A MUCH LONGER VERSION OF THIS

He looks like my friends mom

"I couldn't describe Irvine if you paid me". I could, the ultimate planned community, near the beach.

Was he in The Following??? He looks like the cop in the first few episodes if the series.

Punctuated by the woman sitting next to him looking at him like "Whaaaaat the hell are you talking about?" and then giggling. I wonder how Patton feels about being the voice of angst, "oppressed", white, upper-class Orange Count-ians.

Why is this fucking video fucking censored? You're doing a doc about the expression of an artist, while censoring his expression. Pretty fucking contradictory, wouldn't you say?

Apparently Steve has cancer.It's like, fuck off, we all have cancer, right? I have cancer pretty bad right now, but I go to chemotherapy, I get it taken care of, I get back to work.

maybe i was giving him a compliment? i'm sorry you fail to see how a condition like depression would affect your income

I wouldn't categorize myself as a nerd, but I would definitely call myself a big Patton Oswalt fan. Funny's funny. ~And that's all I have to say about that.

is patton quirky? lord i hate that word so much i dont even know what it means, maybe.

2:38 , " he taps into that angst depression of the upper-middle class orange county white person so he speaks my voice"...da fuq

Thumbs up for getting out of bed swimming through calcified layers of self regret and horrible decisions and self loathing!!!

Wonder what that hotel room smells like. Patton looks like he's lost in a sea of farts.

the trumpet in the intro song is annoyingly off tempo. sorry. unnecessary douchebag comment, i know.

Patton is a brilliant writer & performer. A gifted man.

If you haven't seen him in 'Bigfan" do. He's brilliant in it. So much talent. very good movie

The Most Triumphant Example of the Sad Clown trope probably is Real Life.

what bad decisions has patton made recently? this guy seems to be doing ok these days.

As far as comedy goes in film or stand up. Where is it. I did not find any this time.

HOLY SHIT! The intro guy plays Dungeons and Dragons with Brian Poshen! Nerd Poker!!

What Patton wrote about Boston will live forever as a letter to humanity. Luv him.

I'm curious why the filmmaker chose the fans s/he chose. Like the first couple around 0:03 sharing a burger, and the large man who says something about how he perceives Oswalt as being the "voice" of the "upper middle class"... I wonder if there is intentional irony in capturing these kinds of fans? At first I thought they were poor choices, why interview this guy of all people, but now I think it was intentional. Still curious though.

boy i sure do love hearing pattons bit with loud beeps over it

I agree with you, and the choice of music just makes it all the better

Is the guy at 9:08 reading his lines off of cue cards to his right?

Why are you bleeping it only sometimes?

I wish him well for the people he gives a spark of joy to! :-)

That's what I love about Patton -- he's quite the wordsmith

Thanks Keith from ETID for posting this. Gotta love Patton

Ashton Kutcher as the executive producer....interesting.

Suddenly I'm craving a failure pile in a sadness bowl.

You rock Patton...Thanks Thrash Lab for doing this one!

če si srečen in če srečo rad bi še delil z nekom ...

Julien Nitzberg - Guy does good work -

Great stuff, hands down the best channel I sub to

Even Patton was embarrassed by the freeze at 9:41

Go figure executive producer Ashton Kutcher.

Welcome to the pre-301 club. Also, great vid.

omg so dam awesome! love it love it love it!

"...calcified layers of regret..."

"You don't need it...You don't need it."

Is that Grumpus driving a Lexus at 0:52?

I'm wearing Boots of Escaping!!!!!

I really like this guy.

I think he was being facetious.

Why do people keep saying he's funny....Iv'e seen him in films, I've listened to his jokes and skits and none of it is funny in the slightest. Normally I don't try to judge as much as criticize in positive way, but seriously people he's not funny and in films it's painful to see him perform. In cgi or cartoons yeah, but in the heavy spotlight NAY!! He reminds me of a city version of the larry the cable guy without a solid backbone of humor clichés.

look at you! missin the joke
