I like how the Uilleann pipes player from Riverdance is number five, and then Markus Schenkenberg is squeezed in at the end like a last-minute pity add

His delivery of “I’m your huckleberry” literally made my jaw drop

One of the more accurate depictions of publishing I remember from film is, weirdly, Sideways (2004). Paul Giamatti's agent sending out his book over and over and over, and it just...never....selling

(The stunningly beautiful woman who Truly Understands Him is a fiction, though)
