This is a movie suitable for people who trap themselves. You have to believe that there is randomness and destiny in the unknown of life.
The following are three favorite lines.
SAGE NEIGHBORLY ADVICE
W: How old is Mimi? T: She's 22, almost. W: She's young, you know? She's at an age where defense mechanisms are very strong.Despite the outer veneer, she is ruled by faired.Like so many of us in that time, you know.What you need to do, is just make her afraid of something more than being with you in that way. T: Which is? W: Not being with you. T: But how? How I'm supposed to do that? W: Hmm, let life take over. Find a window, then pounce. T: That's it? That's your Sage neighborly advice? Can I have my money back? W: Thomas, you're not giving life enough credit .The umpredictable forces of humanity. T: My life is not unpredictable. W: Life is as much a dream, as it is a nightmare. T: My life is conventional. My life is boring. W: No. It's as random as it is deliberate.You know, as funny as it is tragic.Yours is no exception.
J'S STRORY OF GETTING DOWN
T: You noticed that he liked to to come in early.Really early, like, what, 7:00 in the morning? So you started to come in early too. You isolate and contain.Told him it was because you don't sleep well, that bad dreams, whey share you awake before daylight.In the mornings, you put on music in your office.Brames one day, biggie smalls the next, because, you know, you can't be put into a box. You attack all the senses. You went a little aggressive on your signature scent, strong on the vanilla. You mentioned a boyfriend, then complainted of a bad date. You confuse him, make him wonder. The sex, ohh, the sex, the sex suprised you both. He was just walking you home after dinner. I mean, jesus, you7re not the other woman, he's not a cheating husband.'No, this isn't something that we did, that is something that happened to us .But what? Could it be love? Well, nobody wants to acknowledge that so soon in the game, but the stars are crossed and people are gonna get hurt and'We've done a bad, bad thing, Ethan.' so, fuck , it must be, right? All of it was just bullshit - calculated and manipulate-- from that first lie about your bad dreams.'Cause I'm-I'm pretty sure that you sleep like a baby. J: You are quite storyteller.
WEDDING SPEACH
U: I have only few thoughts. Drama, the dramatics of marital romance. staying together. Like the Gipsy told me that the poems written in life lines are never guaranteed. They get busted up. Tomorrow begins new poetry. Another romance that will explode from time to time. Poetry of married people like the Aurora borealis. Stewn like stars in the sky, and the drama of your lives begins. Chapter after chapter, stories, books. Revolutions, as I know, will come. I've seen many. Lived though them. They play in the least expected places, so get ready. Casey understand Howard. Howard knows Casey. No. Not yet. There's always mistery. You both know that, you both know it isn't perfect. Excitement , trust and struggle, and the unknow privacies that keep us together. Glue of struggle. I raise my glass. The fragile glass we sto,ped on and shattered and will forever be putting back together. Like the puzzles we first worksed as children. Learning to be patient, searching for what fits. So many puzzles. So many books in this room. And I talked too much. Let's dance .
