Just a classic case of deflection.
And he actually succeeded, with you now stepping in and suggesting a random topic.

Colin Hanks (Tom's son) directed this documentary about the life and career of the late John Candy, the Canadian comic actor who took Hollywood by storm in the 80s. Clips from his film catalog and commentary from co-stars like Dan Aykroyd, Tom Hanks, Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara, Macaulay Culkin, and many more paint a portrait of a well loved guy who unfortunately struggled with anxiety off screen. A touching trip down memory lane.
or Hugh Grant
, neither of which seem accurate to me either. (I look pretty much like the guy in the photo at left.) But it just goes to show that people simply are eager for any opportunity to remind a fat guy that he's fat. There's a brief sequence of archival clips in I LIKE ME where interviewers subject Candy to inappropriate jabs about his weight. He's understandably irritated, because his weight was something he rarely or never thought about. Of course, he should have thought about it a little bit more, as his widow ruefully comments. But the guy had a lot more weighing on his spirit than cheap fat jokes.
and there are some good ones, as well as a clip of her eulogy at Candy's funeral (and her sister Mary Margaret singing at said funeral) and Candy/O'Hara outtakes from HOME ALONE. There's also good interview footage of Eugene Levy, Bill Murray, 100 year-old Mel Brooks, and other priceless folks who may never get their own feature-length documentary. (Okay, Murray might; Brooks has of course outlived everyone he worked w/ prior to the late 80s, so who would appear in his?) So there is a lot of value onscreen here.

Not sure how you think that not knowing about something equates to missing someone, but hey, you go and believe whatever you like.
If you thought you'd somehow made a smart or cutting comment there, trust me you badly fell short, but hey have a pat on the head for the attempt and try again some time.
Whatever this is, it's going nowhere. I suggest we move on to another random topic.
