There’s a wonderful piece of research by a guy called David Dunning at Cornell, who’s a friend of mine I’m proud to say, who pointed out that to know how good you are at something, requires the same amount of skills as to be good at that thing in the first place. Which means, and this is terribly funny, that if you’re absolutely no good at something at all, then you lack exactly the skills to know that you’re absolutely no good at it. And this explains, not just Hollywood, but almost the entirety of Fox News.

Did you ever read the interview where he started an interview with a grouchy, “Why are you looking at me like that?” The interviewer asks, like what. Then Ian says something like he (or she?) was looking at him like he didn’t like him and asks testily if he’d done or said anything they didn’t like. Finally the interviewer just says “This is what my face looks like.” I’m paraphrasing all this. But Ian obviously was not in a great mood and wasn’t taking any guff off anybody that day. There is another well-publicized interview where he scolds a writer at a PR gathering about not understanding the concept of Kings and the guy wrote how thrilling it was to be scared to death by Ian McShane in public. I think I have saved a copy of that one in email if you haven’t seen it (you probably have).
