Imagine that you find yourself sitting seven seats and one aisle away from Nicolas Cage at the premiere of a movie where he plays Nicolas Cage. That happened to FOX film critic Caroline Siede at the SXSW premiere of 'The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.'
Nicolas Cage at the premiere of "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent"
One fan took to the Q&A mic to explain he didn’t have a question, he just wanted to give Cage a rose — which the actor happily accepted and held for the rest of the event. "How strange was it to play yourself?" another fan asked. "You have no idea," Cage responded. But perhaps nothing is stranger than watching Cage himself stand on stage and enthusiastically quote Gormican’s sentiment that "neurotic Cage is the best Nic Cage.
In fact, according to Cage, his onscreen dynamic with Pascal very much mirrors the kinship they built behind-the-scene as well, which probably explains why the warm but complicated friendship between Nic and Javi is easily the best thing about "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent." For as much as Gormican’s film is a meta action comedy, it’s also a surprisingly poignant platonic love story about the challenges of making new friends in middle age.
