You may think you know Los Angeles. But then there’s L.A., Larry-David style.
Cruising down Wilshire Boulevard in Santa Monica, Adam Papagan points out a few local landmarks: “Over here on the right, Sur La Table — this is where Larry goes to replace the slow toaster, and he accidentally offends Tim Meadows’ deaf wife.”
“A great thing about the show is that it documents these stores and stuff that are not notable for any reason,” Papagan says. “The majority of the places we’re going are just, like, a restaurant, an office building. It’s nothing.”Larry David is an acquired taste. For some of us, it takes about 10 seconds.
Even out of tour-guide mode, he’s earnest and boisterous, talking about what he does and why “Curb” is part of it. He recalls the time he met David at a bowling alley when he was in ninth grade and wonders how the show manages to sneak a philosophical punch in with its comic one . “I guess it’s why ‘Curb’ is true to life, because it presents this contrast, and life is all about contradictions,” Papagan says. “On the one hand, Larry is this everyman — he’s just like me. But on the other hand, he lives in an ivory tower — he goes out to eat and plays golf and just does not exist in the world of the average person at all.”
“This neighborhood right here hasn’t really changed in 45 years,” he says. “The only big change is the hospital across the street, but the bank was there just the way it was, that store was there…”
