About this Quote

This quote by Douglas Wood speaks with the admiration he has for Albert Brooks' job, from his very first movie, Real Life, to his more current job. Nevertheless, Wood is disappointed that Brooks' a lot more recent work seems to have actually lost its edge. This could mean that the extra current work is not as imaginative, humorous, or provocative as his earlier work. It might also suggest that the much more recent job is not as bold or ingenious as his earlier job. Timber's quote speaks with the gratitude he has for Brooks' earlier work, as well as his disappointment in the a lot more recent job. It is a testimony to the influence Brooks' earlier work had on Wood, and also the high assumptions he has for Brooks' future work.
