Briefly, Whit Stillman seemed to become the upper crust’s own John Hughes, and then, like Hughes, Stillman largely disappeared. This scene from his Metropolitan is a real gem.

‘Metropolitan’ was way better than ‘Barcelona’. And I like Chris Eigeman’s character so much in ‘Met’ that once he left, it lost a little something.
Agreed! His character’s best line in the film is probably, “It’s a tiny bit arrogant of people to go around worrying about those less fortunate.”
