  • @TorMax9
    @TorMax9 4 месяца назад +93

    I think Louis Theroux's success is due to his vulnerability, his slightly neurotic personality, the viewer wants to protect him from the crazy people he gets involved with. He doesn't come across as brash and certain and is going to lay down the law. He acts ignorant and plays along with the crazies while winking at the viewer and we share in his inside joke.

    • @raoulduke344
      @raoulduke344 4 месяца назад +11

      Playing a little... not the dumb act, exactly, but more like the intentionally naive act helps the subject forget who they're talking to and encourages people expand on their answers. The one where he's talking to a group of young guys at a Philadelphia corner after a shooting. They kind of laugh and roll their eyes at the questions he was asking, but they still answer them. Instead of appearing like a nosey journalist (or even come across like a cop) he just seems like a clueless middle-class foreigner who doesn't understand "their ways".
      Or the big Hispanic ginger guy who denies being a dealer and keeps saying he pays rent... he gets him and his subordinates to open up and say things they probably wouldn't normally. It's really a clever trick Louis has perfected.

    what stuck in my head about this chat with louis is what he said about people how some people give off a scary vibe, regardless of how their demenour is like that guy calling him 'sir' and acting friendly - which is what it is an 'act'. We can pick up when someone is a bad person regardless of how they are treating us. I recall louis talking about that interview with the neo nazi's and how even though the cameras were there he felt he was in serious danger. I was watching that interview and i remember louis looking really frightened at one point when one guy turned on him and how instantly all the others started to view him as an enemy.
