The film's dialogue covers topics such as [[experimental theater]], the nature of theater, and the nature of life, and contrasts Andre's [[spiritual experience]]s with Wally's modest [[humanism]]. Reception was largely positive upon initial release, and over time ''My Dinner with Andre'' has been regarded as a classic.
