Watch: Danny DeVito teach David Mamet about art

David Mamet took a break from shouting about art  from the sides of LA County highways to sit down with Danny DeVito. In this Funny or Die clip, DeVito (ironically, but not quite hilariously) gives Mamet a good talking-to on Hamlet and the nature of sequels.

Inside The Actor's Workshop with Danny DeVito from David Mamet

Generally, I dig Danny DeVito's whole oeuvre (yes, he has an oeuvre). But when his humor runs a little crude, that to my mind is the best DeVito. Of course, when David Mamet wants mock snooty discourse, you mock snooty discourse. I'm still surprised that David Mamet agreed to do this (and that he makes his voice sound like that).

He doesn't give David Mamet a 'talking-to'...he gives it to Martin Jarvis. Mamet wrote and directed this, he didn't star in it.
