young willem dafoe reads you for filth asmr
best tag on this post so far
[Video Id: We see a young Willem Dafoe. He has long hair and a red shirt. He is sitting in what appears to be a box with nothing behind him but darkness. He speaks clearly, while pronouncing every word, like a preacher. However, he is also speaking rather matter of factly, and it looks like he’s reading something that is off screen. That, coupled with the fact that he stresses some words, makes it sound like he’s a mix between a school librarian reading a book to second graders and someone giving a ted talk.
There is also a chorus of voices, a mix between male and female who respond to what he says. They sound like they’re all a bunch of side characters listening to a main character speak in a musical.
Their addition give the whole scene a cult like quality.
Willem Dafoe:He is up at night.
Chorus of People: mm-hmm
Willem Dafoe: He is writing two books.
Chorus of People: mm-hhhm
Willem Dafoe (a little bit judgmental): He is sleeping during the day.
Chorus of People: mm-hmm
Willem Dafoe (more judgmental), sounding almost shocked: He is arguing with his brothers and parents.
Chorus of People: mm-hmm
Willem Dafoe: He talks about re-incarnation
(mm-hmm)
Willem Dafoe: He does not work.
Chorus of People (very judgemental, clearly against this idea): Mm-mm.
We then get almost a single frame of what looks like Willem Dafoe, in a witness booth at a trial, but it appears to be a set. There is what looks to be a sort of police officer and a judge who is not wearing a judges uniform. It makes the whole thing seem like some sort of play, perhaps some college production
