Imagine a Venn Diagram consisting of three circles. One contains the most aggressively self-promoting academics. The second circle contains those whose work is least respected by their academic peers. Yet a third contains people who cannot stop talking. Find the area of overlap between these three circles and make a movie about the people in it. That is The Examined Life.

Cornell West is cool. I love this one: "I'm a blues man in the life of the mind. I'm a jazz man in the world of ideas".
I've been a jazz musician for a long time. Cornell West is our philosopher (along with Albert Murray). Cornell's book, "Democracy Matters" is great, too. His words about Emerson are the best I've read.
