In their new movie The End of the Tour, Jason Segel and Jesse Eisenberg play two writers? acclaimed author David Foster Wallace and Rolling Stone reporter David Lipsky ? who in 1996 conducted a marathon five-day interview while Wallace finished promoting his beloved novel, Infinite Jest. Befitting their roles, Segel and Eisenberg sat down for Rolling Stone for an exclusive, wide-ranging conversation that covered everything from embarrassing summer camp stories (Segal recalls singing all of Les Misérables' "Castle on a Cloud" in a falsetto) to tombstone sizes and what constitutes leading a fulfilling life.
"What the characters are dealing with, in theory, is not necessarily the most dramatically potent situation ? they're two guys on a book tour, it's not life-and-death, like 90 percent of movies," Eisenberg says. "But I think what happened was we kind of invested ourselves to such a degree in it that it made it more potent."
