Oh hi Mark
O hai!
You sound exactly like him, arrgh!
O hai!
I'm fed up with this world!
Heβs D.B. Cooper.
Once upon a time in Yugoslavia, a boy was born. Blessed with a voice and a mind, he fled The Troubles and went to America, reinventing himself under a new identity. The past was dead, never to be spoken of again. But the boy grew up and cryptically refused to give any indication that he even had a past prior to his American-self reinvention. Especially because to admit any true details about the past also involves admitting to details of the art heist that built his fortune. The End.
My honest guess would be the Balkans. He probably fled the area after the unrest and either doing horrible things (I hope not) or suffering horrible things. A fair number of people that survive and escape war zones never want to revisit that trauma and keep it quiet. I think this theory is also supported by his hedonistic attitude - just press forward and do shit, don't care what others think because it's a miracle you're still alive.
I assume some immigration officer knows the truth and confirmed he wasn't a war criminal, so if he wants to keep his past private, I'm totally fine with that.
This is my pet theory. If I remember correctly from The Disaster Artist, Tommy talked about escaping horrible things or something akin to that.
1: who?
2: why is it an important thing to ask?
Writer, director, producer, and star of the worst movie ever made.
His background, where he got his money, where he was born, etc. are not publicly known.
I also recall hearing that he was Polish. No, I don't have a source.
Looking at the name it sounds like he's French
It's a name he adopted while living in Paris, according to Greg Sestero.
The letter W is not very common in French.
Its a purposeful misspelling of "OUIseaux" which is bird en français
Then it's a purposeful mispronunciation as well, because it starts with a "wa" sound.
No like the oi dipthong makes the "wuh" like how a stoner slowly says "whuhhhht"
No, it doesn't. French is my first language. The closest approximation of the word "oiseau" in English would be "wazo."
Im just saying oi can make the w sound. I don't think there's truly a conflict in what is being said.
Itβs a misspelling of the French word for bird.
Mars.
