You can't respect or trust the film recommendations of video store employees (VSEs) unless there is within the store a distinct whiff of socks.
It has long been argued that there are two sides of the brain, one side used for creative thought, the other for logic... or is that the other way round? Is the other side for creativity and something else...? Anyway, we're either good at one or the other way of thinking. Similarly, VSEs have a capacity for film dissertation over foot hygiene.
Best wishes,
