Because He's Jeff Goldblum
When did you first encounter Jeff Goldblum? Maybe as a deranged killer in his 1974 screen debut in Death Wish? Maybe as a cynical journalist in 1983's The Big Chill? Or a brilliant if egotistical scientist-turned-fly in 1986's The Fly? Perhaps as the wise-cracking skeptical mathematician in 1993's Jurassic Park? Travis M. Andrews decided to set out on a journey through Goldblum's career, talking to directors like Lawrence Kasdan and Philip Kaufman, colleagues like Harry Shearer and Billy Crudup, and pop culture experts like Chuck Klosterman and Sean Fennessey to get to the bottom of this whole Goldblum thing. In this new semi-biography, semi-rumination and semi-ridiculous look at the career of Goldblum, Andrews takes you behind the scenes of his iconic movies, explores the shifting nature of fame in the 21st century and spends far too much time converting Goldblum's name into various forms of speech.
