This movie makes me ache so badly for my youth and has haunted me in subtle to moderate ways every time I rewatch it. High level artistry. Incredibly provocative.
@@patrickkennedy3901 Zach is the definition of a wooden actor. He had zero personality throughout the entire movie and the supporting cast does all the heavy lifting. It's just really sh*tty. Idk how else to put it. It bothers me when writers make themselves the main character and wildly under perform.
It's the most predictable, juvenile movie I've seen in my life. It tries so hard to be deep and serious, but Zach's acting is so fucking atrocious. The most unlikable protagonist in any movie.. ever. No redeeming qualities about it. Not funny, not interesting, not thought provoking, not a tear jerker. Just a shit fucking movie.
It’s weird for her to be talking about the film depicting “affluence in the suburbs.” Both Sam and Mark are from single parent homes and look to be on the lower side of middle class, lack postsecondary education etc etc. These characters aren’t exactly being suffocated by materialist excess.
More like their post-secondary "education" free. :) Leaves more time to actually educate oneself according to one's interests without getting saddled with a bunch of sketchy debt.
“She tells him this song will change his life and in fact she goes on to change his life.” Hey Zach, let me introduce you to this thing called subtext.
I’m aware of all the kappy/ pizzagate stuff and all that goes on in Hollywood. But what about this specific movie makes you mention that? Just curious since I was thinking of watching it

That's such a good way to put it. It's the epitome of melancholy.
I was 22 when this came out. I miss those days dearly!
So very excellent. Much needed.
Soundtrack so perfect.
I can appreciate why Zach likes the name “Large’s Arc” but Garden State is an infinitely more marketable title.
Great film and soundtrack so exticed to watch this interview.
Best album ever.
This is my favorite movie and soundtrack. Great writing and acting. Been wondering why it’s called Garden State
because New Jersey is the Garden State and the story from the movie is in New Jersey
Garden State is SOOO good and SOO underrated!!! Incredible movie and soundtrack.
It's one of the worst movies I've seen in my life...
Like it makes me mad how fucking bad it is

Best movie ever made. No kidding.

omg thank you very much for uploading this interview!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Natalie Portman is actually great
He should’ve had Donald Turk Fasion be in this movie too. The guy who played the cop was the same actor that played “Private Dancer” in Scrubs.
There was no role in it that Donald Faison would be a natural fit for
@@akshaynatu6568 he could have pulled off the Method Man role.
I liked Method Man in the movie, but Donald could have swung it.
Peter Sarsgaard is awesome.

Isaac Kappy....nuff said. Freakos

I just watched it, defiantly some pedo symbolism in the movie
@@hippoher0 Lmao how is Garden State a pedo movie?
@@lavarball528some ppl are just desperate for there to be pedophiles everywhere lol
If Jeff goldblum got dipped in gay chicken au jus soup
Braff’s shirt has dated about as well as the film
The film dates perfect unless you’re a cuck soy boy liberal
