She was 12 years old when she was in Taxi Driver, her breakout role.

Thereā€™s a lot more implication to her reaction when you hear the question she was asked.

The person who shot Ronald Reagan, their motive was wanting to impress Jodi Foster.

Thereā€™s this song by Wall of Voodoo called ā€˜ā€˜Far Side of Crazyā€™ā€™, go listen to that a few times then come back and read the rest of the comment.

spoiler

pretty cool song right?

Anyway, Itā€™s about John Hinckley, a lot of the lyrics were lifted from a sort of manafesto he wrote, he tried to assassinate Ronald Regan, he had a lot of mental health issues, and he watched Taxi Driver, and decided to do what he titular character does in the film by assassinating a politician, itā€™s not clear if he understood Jodie Foster was a seperate person from the character she played in the film, but his motivation was to impress her.

Anyone who knows who Hickley was historically, as he was released recently, and thereā€™s video of Regan doing his ā€˜missed meā€™ joke at rallies making itā€™s rounds ever few months, Iā€™d say pretty much anyone with internet or reads the newspaper likely knows.

Why itā€™s only the funniest TV show ever made!

Especially if you discount all the other comedy shows that donā€™t involve a person and their robot friends trapped in space being forced to watch cheesy movies.

My favorite episode was when they watched Zardoz, although Iā€™m not 100% sure they ever did watch it - I may have just watched it by myself and imagined them saying stuff about it. Honestly, Sean Connery in a codpiece writes itself.

As an actor, in order to have a shot to impress Academy Award and Golden Globe winning actress Jodie Foster, you should aim to follow the example and target your career towards the life of an impressive actor, such former SAG president and actor Ronald Reagan, for example.
