1. Yep.

You nailed it.

3. "I like to watch" - the Chimp twist slowly in the wind

of truth.

4. Time to rent that movie again

Funny, my brother and I were just discussing this on Saturday. Has part of of "From the Wilderness" come out yet?

[priller]

5. Well, in some respects

"That boy's got mush for brains!" That part I'll agree with.

But Chauncey was a good-natured innocent. Bush corrupt, ill-tempered, power-mad, delusional little bully.

6. Sorry no

The Chauncy Gardner character was pure, untouched. The chimp is just an evil simple minded sociopath.

7. No, more like Tartuffe

Tartuffe the imposter and Being There are mirror images. Read the play, then see the movie. Jerzy took the play and turned it on its head.

ORGON, a well-to-do Parisian householder, has been so deceived by the hypocritical cant of a poor beggar named Tartuffe, that he has made the latter an honored guest in his household. In no time at all Tartuffe has made himself practically master of the house and the doings of its occupants. Orgon, far from being incensed, ascribes this to Tartuffe's unselfish interest in his, Orgon's, welfare. He is on the point, in fact, of repudiating his promise to young Valère that he shall marry Orgon's daughter, Marianne, in order that her hand and her dower may go to Tartuffe and attach him permanently to the family.
