Episode 170
Jack Black-tember continues (unfortunately this week) as we tackle the Jack Black 2001 "comedy" Shallow Hal, co-starring Gwenyth "The Candle" Paltrow and Jason "The Last Member" Alexander.
In this film Jack plays the titular Hal, a shallow AF financial advisor that is hypnotized by Tony "Banana Hands" Robbins to see the inner beauty of a person. Enter Rosemary (The Candle) who Hal only sees with his new inner beauty view. As the two get closer, Hal's life is flipped upside down as he gets over his shallow behaviors. Until...well...just check it out. You'll find out.
