stunning visuals and complex imagery compound the brilliant storyline raising the bar on cinema in the twentieth century and i dont see this as beginners luck because i mean the sense of confidence in the directing indicates that we will be seeing much more from stick bbone in the years to come and in fact i hear he will be starting production on his new film in hong kong this summer and its called strange flower which is a line from a kerouac poem or something but the story will apparently reflect the east meets west dynamic while discussing the increasing isolation of a life in a global economy and how the more communication technology proliferates the fewer and shallower our relationships become which i think is true when it all comes down to it because if you really think about it how often do you get together with friends just to be together for no reason maybe once a week or once a month well the fact is these get togethers should be a daily part of human life just like eating or breathing because humans are a social breed so i am very interested to see what our new auteur has to say on this subject in his next movie

if only if only if only my mother had never been born i could not be boring you right now with this inanity of a story of a writer sitting in his bedroom writing about a writer writing about infinite regress into the void of labyrinthine morally flabby literature that is more of a mental exercise than a beautiful experience but maybe were all these little dinky things collected into one vast volume the ephemerality and inconsequentiality of each piece on its own would become a moot thought because the collection of poems sequenced to give an ebb and flow feeling to the thought wave and the pieces synergizing off each other would create something big and beautiful so maybe i should make me a copy with everything in order and with a nice cover and give it to a friend to see what he thinks like danny in new york except that he always liked these little things so maybe i should give it to hilary except that shes a snob and she told me i was ordinary like a frat boy which would piss me off except that i sort of liked her before that so when i found out she thought she was superior she became my enemy and especially since i wrote that last thing i cant send it to her

a man and a woman are neighbors for years before they learn one anothers names and a while longer before he runs into her at the noodle shop a block away and he is forced by awkwardness to ask if he can sit down and join her for her bowl of noodles and he is even more embarrassed when he must ask the waiter for a fork because he has not yet mastered chopsticks and the woman says make it two about the forks and he forces an awkward smile but she makes no expression of kindness and they wait for their forks in silence and when the forks arrive the man takes a big spaghetti twirl of noodles and shoves them slurp down his gullet before he asks what the woman does for a living but there is a little green onion stuck on the mans front right tooth and the woman chuckles before she answers that she does nothing for a living because she inherited a significant fortune from her deceased husband but she does enjoy working in charity on a regular basis and he replies that he is a dentist and she asks him arent dentists the most likely professionals to kill themselves
