Harry Lime, obviously.

Stop calling him that, it's weird.

It's a good nickname and you know it.

You look Orson in the face next time you say that.

Hey Orson, I tried to go see that Mud movie of yours, but I think the theatre was full on account of the pride parade finishing nearby that evening. Anyway it was a bit of a bummer...

what kind of pride parade we talkin about, Dev? The kind that enjoys watching Mcconaughey take his shirt off?

"Orson".

His name is randy, and he's not that manly.

Wanna fight?

You drink piña coladas.

Oh for petes. That was one night.

I grew a patch of hair on my chest in college, and you know what helped put it there? This beer:

Jorge's recall humor is greater than or equal too that of Arrested Development.

this is still one of the best films i've seen all year. i'll be interested to see how things shake out critically over time, once people realize that refn was never going to make Drive 2

yes, i've seen it 3 times. it's so wonderfully perverse. it's a european art film that's nominally a thai film, and even less of an "american film," in spite of those who were eager to see another refn/gosling collaboration.

i think the most interesting thing about the film is its commitment to abstraction, which still coheres because of its visual language. all the hallway shots, the significance of the womb, of the stomach. the total emasculation of gosling. the voyeurism that's sort of a function of his emasculation (and all of the watching that goes on in the film (no one will ever film a karaoke scene like that again)). i thought it was very beautiful.

I want to know more of what your take was. But yes I agree with you on a cinmeatic language stand point, but overall I just didn't enjoy it as an experience. BTW, that's why Hitchcock was so great. He was so cerebral, yet entertaining.
