I might’ve been 2 years old when this movie came out, but when I grew up in the 90s, I remember my friends and I having a crush on Andrew McCarthy. He’s still dreamy to this day.
In his memoir he said that he suffered a lot of anxiety and always felt like he didn’t belong. He drank a lot to mask his fears and had probably had drinks before this interview. But the way he describes himself in his memoir he sounds like he was pretty shallow during his acting heyday tbh.
Andrew Thomas McCarthy (Westfield, Nueva Jersey; 29 de noviembre de 1962) es un actor estadounidense. Es famoso por sus papeles en St. Elmo's Fire (St. Elmo, punto de encuentro en España), Mannequin, Weekend at Bernie's y Pretty in Pink en la década de los años 1980 y más recientemente por sus papeles en las series de TV Lipstick Jungle y Royal Pains.
he's a bit pretentious and pseudointellectual, but more eloquent and intelligent than andrew, while andrew comes off bit of a naive simpleton who doesn't know how immature he sounds. neither of them are very self-aware but both of them are self-conscious. i think rob is embarrassed and annoyed by andrew's random, excited interruptions, when he attempts to finish his sentence or add to what rob is trying to say, when in truth he doesn't understand what rob means at all.
@@punkbjork Andrew McCarthy was pretty shallow. He is lucky that he had the career that he did. He was never a good actor but somehow got parts that fit his aloof vapid personality. He was drunk much of the time and he was trying to mimic Montgomery Clift. It’s amazing that he got as far as he did before Hollywood realized he was an empty suit.
