Anybody like the movie “A Mighty Wind”...?Well, I do. One of my all time favourites.
There’s a scene where, at the reunion concert, The Folksmen are preparing to go on stage after The (New!) Mainstreet Singers, but hear the Singers performing the exact song The Folksmen were going to do.
Naturally, The Folksmen are pissed. Much like the management team overseeing the suckage to the north, Harry Shearer’s character suggests a “bold” move in a desperate situation: to play the song anyhow.
This clip reminds me of all the moves Chia does because, even though his plans may initially sound “so crazy that they just might work”, upon immediate reflection, anyone in their right mind should have the exact response that Michael McKean’s character has in the scene.
Here’s the scene for anyone interested. But instead picture Shearer as Chia and McKean/Christopher Guest as some combination of Lowe/MacT/BobbyNick/Katz, all saying “Bold move, Chia! Let’s roll with it!”
