Here's @Variety's story on the comments, which were made at a town-hall event during a conversation about releasing movies in theaters. We want to know: Does he have a point? Are these dying arts?

There once was an actor named #Chalamet,
who couldn't stand opera or ballet,
He voiced his opinion out loud,
In front of a really big arts-loving crowd,
Now he goes door-to-door selling bidets.
