JCVD a retourné. JCVD is a walking talking buddhist morality play on the vicissitudes of the ego and gratification.→[More:]Which is not that uncommon in Hollywood I guess. But the difference is that he doesn't hide it behind publicists and a professional veneer.
Have any of you seen the movie JCVD?

No, but I heard it was quite good.

It has a 7.2 rating on IMDB. So I guess one doesn't need to have a first hand experience with Belgians to be interested in this.
Although for me it certainly adds to the charm; the image of JCVD walking through the Schaerbeeke neighbourhood of Brussels.

I found it delightful.

Yeah. It's rather uncommon for (former) Hollywood stars to play a rather self-deprecating role like that. That's rather refreshing.
He must have been quite a twit when he was succesful.
