- With his feature directorial debut FOOL'S PARADISE premiering in theaters this weekend, the writer- director-actor visited Criterion for a trip inside our films closet, where he shares the connection between IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA and François Truffaut, the inspiration of Hal Ashby's BEING THERE, the importance of Spike Lee's DO THE RIGHT THING, and his excitement to explore the work Agnès Varda.

The Gang Goes to the Criterion Closet
Beat me to it
Will Mac come out of the Criterion Closet?
@@1997residente Mac would be staring the whole time at the beefcake on the Beau Travail cover.
I would pay good money to see what Frank Reynolds thinks of the films of Dusan Makavejev.
Dennis probably loves Saló.
You see that door marked “Critter Closet”? You think some critters live in there?
Too bad there was no rat stick leaning in the corner. LOL
@@justinkingery2489 Bash me like a rat, Frank!
Wow, an expert in bird law AND art house films!
Oh a cat in a wall. You're talking my language.

Charlie Day has some great choices here!
they did that in the outro lol
You watched the video, too?
I cry like a baby every time I watch Punch Drunk Love
Boring choices, imo. They're good, but expected.
@@jon4715 I don't exactly see The 400 Blows as expected...
I wan NOT expecting to hear Charlie Kelly explain the cinematic techniques of Barry Lyndon today.
it goes nice with a cat food and milk steak bender

It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, when it’s firing on all cylinders, is just comedy perfection to me. No TV comedy cast has their level of chemistry and comedic timing together.
From listening to the Always Sunny Podcast, I could tell that Charlie was a film buff to some degree. Awesome to see him in the hallowed Criterion closet.
I agree. Its always sunny is my favorite show of all time and is what comedy should be.
Facts
jenny dates a man in a 60s cover band
Yeah, but Curb is better.
@@MamadNobari I love Curb too, but nah.
Charlie Day was an IFC promo announcer before Sunny began. I used to use an mp3 of him narrating an IFC promo for Do the Right Thing as an intro to music from Do the Right Thing for the internet radio station I used to run, so I cheered when he grabbed the Do the Right Thing Blu-ray because of that old IFC promo.
His IFC promos were a far cry from "Is your cat making too much noise all the time?"
I'm so glad someone else remembers that.
Dude, I thought I was the only other one that thought of that whenever I watched the movie. My brother!
I never knew I needed to see charlie day in the criterion closet, but I do.
I HAVE to see Danny Devito's closet picks
It’s be restricted to the bottom 3 shelves
"Can we offer you a ladder in these trying times?"
I've worked with Charlie Day in Toronto for Pacific Rim and he was really short in person. I would say he is roughly around 5'5 or 5'6 in person. Now imagine Danny DeVito. I'd say he can reach in about 2 of those shelves. 🤣🤣🤣
CHOLLIE I CANT REACH ANY OF THESE DAMN SHELVES. HALF O THESE LOOK LIKE THEY BELONG IN THE TRESHHHH
6 full minutes of Charlie work! Thanks, Criterion!
Charlie Work😍😍😍
I love how deeply Day obviously loves movies. I can’t wait to see his debut!
John Cassavetes: Five Films
1. Shadows (1959)
2. Faces (1968)
3. A Woman Under the Influence (1974)
4. The Killing of a Chinese Bookie (1976)
5. Opening Night (1977)
Are you SERIOUS!??!?? These two worlds of mine are colliding right on my screen!!!!!!
"Seriously dude, are you asking me if I've seen Indiana Jones?"
My heart skipped a beat when he picked up Punch Drunk Love. What a phenomenal film. I absolutely love how incredibly off the rails it starts to get in the back half, because that's love, right? When you're really in the thick of it, you'll do insane things, and it feels as though the world itself bends to meet you in your insane pursuits.
It also set up PTA's absolute best film, still to this day "There Will Be Blood".
Funny. I love Punch Drunk Love. It's in my personal top 10. And There Will Be Blood is in my top 20 most hated movies I have ever seen. Way too long. Way too boring.
Its probably my fave movie of all time if not my fave PTA film
"When you're really in thick of it, you'll do insane things, and it feels as though the world itself bends to meet you in your insane pursuits."
Poetic and applicable to many moments in life. Absolutely beautiful comment.
@@WhirlingMusic sounds like you just didnt resonate with the story, is one of the most polarizing films ever
@@doogi30 I'll probably try again someday.
If you’re a fan of the show it’s obvious what cinephiles those guys are! Cool to see Charlie getting to discuss some of his favorite films in a thoughtful manner like this. Congrats to you Charlie on your directorial debut and Long Live Sunny!!!!
Genuinely one of the best closet pick videos, he explains well what he loves about each film and how they’ve influenced him
It's Always Sunny in the Criterion Closet
Finally someone picked Barry Lyndon!
(Always Sunny Intro plays)
*The Gang Visits the Criterion Closet*
Never thought Charlie would be in the position he’s in now. It honestly great to see.
That Agnes Varda box set is a gem.
I knew fool in paradise looked largely influenced by being there, and trying to describe it to coworkers makes me.feel crazy like no one(I work with) knows these films!
Totally. As I watched the trailer I got a strong "Being there" vibe but it looked like as though it carries its own creative weight as well. Here's hoping..
Hey that’s the janitor at my school! He makes the floor slippy
Yes, Tokyo Story. One of the greatest films of all time in my opinion. Great pick!
I wish I could appreciate this film more. I’ve seen it and just don’t get it. That’s more of a comment about me. I genuinely feel I’m missing something here.
@@jekw23 There are videos that explain the techniques and points about the story, but ultimately it's not really didactic. So many films now hit you over the head telling you how to feel about them but Tokyo story is remarkably not judgemental, people are flawed and hurt those they love and plans often don't work out how they want and that's life and there's nothing you can do about that.... not a very now message.
@@cliffarroyo9554 thanks. I’ve watched a few videos on it. Seems most people have a personal or emotional connection with it.
I think I need to watch it with no preconceptions rather than watching it with a “this is the best film ever” frame of mind. Suspect I’ll get more from it if I don’t pre judge the movie.
@@jekw23 Just let yourself flow with it. Set aside it's universal acclaim/accolades etc. Feel the inevitability of your death. Be grateful for the time you get to spend with your loved ones on your way towards that inevitability. Accept your and their flaws for you share the same destiny. Finally be at one with the flow of time itself and float gently (if a bit solemnly) on it's waters , like a small fishing boat drifts quietly down the river. Show understanding.
In the middle of watching this I thought “Not enough people mention Agnes Varda”….and then boom, Charlie picks up the box set I’ve been wanting to get for awhile. Nicely done.
I was thinking that and then I thought about ozu as well so I was pleasantly surprised twice
@@apseudonym
Same here! I was so happy he mentioned Tokyo Story. Great picks.
Love the Barry Lyndon shoutout and love Charlie
So glad to see someone talk about Being There!!!
If you haven't watched it, watch it! One of the greatest comedies of all time.
@@walterroux291 The satire of American society and politics is still just as relevant.
Charlie fills my whole body with hot joy. Nobody can fill me up like him!
Its all that cream
Let that cream come right to the top
"Can we fill ya up or what?"
@@ardiberen johnny law’s a comin’
This was something I didn’t know I needed to see today
He’s very articulate and knowledgeable in his picks and it proves the idea that smart people are the best at portraying “dumb” people.
Yeah, logically I know he's not his role, but oddly I can't see him and separate the character.
smart and (good) funny go hand in hand.
I mean it's movies guy not quantum mechanics
So many incredible titles. We could all spend hours naming & talking about "the best films" in the Criterion collection, I'll just briefly mention CURE by Kiyoshi Kurosawa, one of the most powerful and unique horror-thrillers which was previously harder to find until Criterion released it. I also kind of appreciate Charlie honestly mentioning that he hadn't seen Barry Lyndon until recently. I also watched Barry Lyndon for the first time recently on my CC bluray, and as certain films can seem intimidating or daunting to some viewers it's refreshing and can be important to admit to not having seen certain films yet. Looking forward to Fools Paradise and new season of Sunny. Much love and respect to Mr. Charlie Day
Great guest! I love it when they pick big box sets - make the most of the closet, lol!
He definitely wasn’t afraid to get his money’s worth
Same I'd be grabbing all the big guys hahaha
I feel like I would grab every Kurasowa film and the godzilla box set and be gone in thirty seconds.
I love these closet pick videos! Charlie, you were the best part of Horrible Bosses, and I am so glad to see you behind the camera and enjoy you choosing picks and explaining the intricacies that influenced you!
Goddamn I love Charlie. I've seen dozens of these closet pick vids and hes the 1st actor where I'd at least heard of all his picks. Hes so real and unpretentious
Nothing brings me more joy than seeing people go to the criterion closet and acting like a kid in the candy store.
Also, excellent picks and I would love to see the rest of the cast of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" in the Criterion Closet, especially Danny DeVito! 🎥👌
Starts talking less and less about his choices soon as he realises he can just bring a bunch of boxsets home and maximise his takeaway
Thank you for finally listing the titles at the end.
Punch Drunk Love is such a great undermentioned movie.
Being able to see it in theaters, i can say the best part was watching people around me not know if adam sandler was being fun or not
I didn't know he was directing a movie, I'll have to find it and check it out! An episode of Closet Pick's with Danny Devito would be great, if you guys haven't already gotten around to asking...
Classy choices! I'd expect nothing less from this guy. Seems like the most educated in film out of the three of them (Sunny guys). Love what he said about Cassavettes, bc I only watched two or three of his movies too; back in film school. I need to revisit as well.
Never thought I’d see Charlie Day talk about my favorite filmmaker, but that’s the power of Varda.
!! VIVA VARDA !!
It's always sunny in the Criterion Closet
Literally just took some of his favorite film peoples and made a movie. :) That's awesome man and I'm glad you're shouting out Being There.
Charlie, watching your movie in theaters for SURE. Such an inspiration, man.
saw The 400 Blows without subtitles and without knowing what people were saying it was still a pleasure to watch.
Made me think if you have a film you love and want to learn more about it it might be good to watch it with language changed or on silent.
I watched The Player again just the other night - hadn’t seen it in over 20 yrs and it blew me away - it’s definitely aged well over the years and probably gets better every time you see it.
Great choices for the old Criterion bag👍🏻
Punch-Drunk love is one of my all time faves! I can't wait to check out Fool's Paradise friday at 10:00am! Woohoo! Love Charlie Day!
Most adorable dude ever.
I love how charlies character on its always sunny and him in the real world could not be more of a polar opposite.
Its always sunny and the 400 blows is a comparison I never thought I'd hear haa!
Jesus. Not what I expected. Want to see his movie now.
Excellent selections Charlie Day. Interesting how 'Being There' ends up in many a Criterion sack. The scene in the elevator when the guy suddenly starts doubling over with laughter. 'I'm sorry I thought you were about to do another one of those elevator jokes.'
god i love charlie day
the fact he is a film buff just makes me so happy and i cant wait for fools paradise
Being There is such a wildly underrated movie. Glad to see it get some love.
Can’t wait till the cinematic masterpiece Lethal Weapon 5 & 6 get a Criterion release
Haven't seen a single one of these, so I have a lot to look forward to. This why I like finding out what actual actors, directors, writers and artists watch and read instead of just relying on the general public who use sites like Reddit and IMDB.
No time travel movies? Those are the best ones
Didn't even pick Deer Hunter smh
No 5th Sense starring Dr. Dolph Lundgren...Smdh
@@EdwardVonKhil He was too busy making ''Crime Stinks: The Smell of Penetration (He Nose The Truth)''
That's so awesome that Jon Brion is composing for Fool's Paradise!
FINALLY SOME LOVE FOR THE PUNCH DRUNK LOVE SCORE!
Charlie Day is a fellow cineafile and I’m here for it!! 😂
He clearly has great taste. Eclectic and brilliant films and filmmakers.
I thought he was a ''full-on rapist'' like those charitable types that give to africans, dyslexics, children...that sort of thing
Charlie, I buy Criterions every single day of my life.
You need to get the entire cast on for this. Would be interesting to see all of their picks.
The 400 Blows is such an important film. That was the first criterion release I NEEDED. I love sunny so much more now knowing there's a little Truffaut influence. Then Barry Lyndon.. crazy.. shot in all natural and candle light.
Charlie Day is fucking awesome but I didn't realize how much more awesome he could get. His second pick was Robert Altman's The Player, one of my favorite movies of all time. AHH!
Charlie Day is an amazing actor from his role in Pacific Rim to this voice roles in both The Lego Movie and The Super Mario Movie.
Good to see him getting some amazing movies like Barry Lyndon and Tokyo Story.
who was he in Lego Movie?
the spaceman!
@@noahsabadish3812 The Lego guy
This is the only time I’ve ever watched one of these and thought “I’ve seen all those!”
Would like to see him tie together all these influences conceptually...like with a pinboard and pictures from the films and red string and just really getting into it
Great job, 👍👍👍🤩🤩 Charlie in picking the movies! I remember watching you on It's always Sunny in Philadelphia t.v. show ! We should get Danny DeVito on the closet pick !! 😊😊😊 !
I need to buy the Agnes Varda collection! Thxs Criterion & Charlie!! 😍
you know you're kino when you direct one (1) film and already have a Criterion closet episode
Thank you for clarifying what "one" meant
@@welltoucansamatthatgame don't be salty young man, many of us appreciated the clarification, Charlie is a lovely little lad and he's doing his best too!
Being There wonderful film,Peter Sellers was amazing, he should have won a Oscar
Thank you Charlie for picking Being There, as one of your influences. I saw a preview for your new movie recently, and I was immediately thinking of Being There.
Barry Lyndon, nice! Just rewatched again recently. 💪🥰
Finally, a talented actor in one of these closet videos
SO he's the opposite of Charly on Sunny. Very patient, tolerant of ambiguity, minimalistic at times. I love the first three and Barry Lyndon.
I am so getting this channel :) . Cannot wait.
Barry Lyndon. When I first saw the opening scenes I thought I'd be bored to tears. After finishing my first viewing, I was haunted. Now it's my fave Kubrick joint.
Wonderful picks !
What a beautiful birthday present for his wife, you can see how happy he knows this will make her
i never knew i needed something so bad until i had it
Very nice…now lets see Mac and Dennis’ closet picks
Dennis is absolutely a "Taxi Driver, Fight Club, American Psycho, Bladerunner" guy.
@@GARGANTUANMASKEDFISH and Mac be like "Where did you keep those sweet sweet Bruce Lee flicks?" *doing some moves* *crushing shelf*
my day has just been made
the agnes varda set as a b-day present for the wife. oh dude, you rock!
Didn’t know I needed this so badly, his observations are remarkably pointed and insightful. Charlie fuckin rocks.
Film geek fangirling here!!! :)
Going for those boxsets without a care. Boss shit.
Very interesting choices! Much respect.
“Stanley Kubrick directs with patience…” 162 takes later😂
Yes, my good man, I'll have the milk steak, boiled over hard, and your finest jelly beans... raw.
I would love to see the stats on the closet picks. I feel like Toyko Story has to be wayyy up there. Rightfully so
For us physical collection lovers when will we see blu rays of always sunny?... I see a lot of fakes online and also no uk region dvds and I just want to own the full collection physically especially since streaming services have taken to omitting some of my favourite episodes.
I have money... WHY DON'T YOU WANT IT? 😟
This is tremendous
You're standing in an inspirational space. You're surrounded by powerful expressive art
ive been waiting so long for this
Charlie needs to know about criterions spaghetti policy
The moment I watched fools paradise trailer, first thought’being there’ I’m excited
I almost skipped over this because I thought it was the thumbnail for the Ari Aster video I already watched 😂😂 Charlie and Ari is an interesting crossover
I love Charlie. When it comes to his humor, he's up there with Rodney Dangerfield and Andy Kaufman.
Barry Lyndon was also the last Kubrick film I had seen, and I also watched it in the last year. For some reason I had been avoiding it.
we love you charlie, one of america's finest actors
