The Squid and The Whale question

Tools    





I am racking my brain trying to think of this and I'm too lazy to get out the dvd and watch the whole movie (though I do love it). I'm trying to remember what Jeff Daniels' character calls Baldwin's tennis instructor. For some reason "dilettante" is coming into my mind but I know it's not that. Please help.



philistine

What do I win?

(full disclosure: never seen the fillum, the convo is on IMDbs quotes section)



BERNARD
Ivan is fine but he's not a serious guy, he's a philistine.

FRANK
What's a philistine?

BERNARD
It's a guy who doesn't care about books and interesting films and things. Your mother's brother Ned is also a philistine.
