"Oh you sad man. You sad, sad man."
LOL! I am watching About Schmidt for the fourth time. I absolutely adore this movie.

When he puts the move on the snowbird in the motor home, I die laughing every time. Almost as funny as his letters to Ndugu.

Jack Nicholson is the best actor of any of his contemporaries. I also watched "Something's Got to Give" last night--he was great in that, too.

I adore him. :-)

1. I saw both those movies
The comic device of writing to Ngudu was perfect-O!

Loved "Something's Got to Give," too. Diane Keaton was also excellent in that movie. I really liked her home and the white everywhere.

I liked the house, too. Loved the way the movie ended. :-)

6. "Swamp"
Edited on Sat Oct-30-04 03:18 PM by Kire
"You know, this used to be a hell a good country." begins George sitting wrapped up next to billy by the campfire. Billy refers to the time he and Wyatt weren't given a room at a cheap motel.

George says something about it being to do with the kind of poeple he and Wyatt are. Billy argues against this by saying that all they represent to them is someone who needs a hair cut.

George replies, "Oh no, what you represent to them is freedom." But Billy argues, "What the hell's wrong with freedom, I mean that's what it's all about isn't it?" George then says, "Oh yeah, that's what it's all about alright, but being it and talking about it are different things. These country boys will talk to you and talk to you about individual freedom, but when they see a free individual it's gonna scare 'em." Billy replies, "Well, we'll make 'em running scared." But George then steps in again by saying, "Oh, they're not scared of you, they're scared of what you represent." Billy then says some like, "well, that makes them pretty stupid then." But George says, "No, that makes them dangerous." George now starts doing his 'Nik-Nik' to Billy and Billy can't believe it. 'Swamp!' adds George, Billy is unsure what to say.

George now adds, 'Did you ever talk to bullfrogs in the middle of the night?'.

'Not generally', replies Billy.

'Do you know what I used to do?', asks Goerge.

'What did you used do, Man?' asks Billy.

'Well I tell you what I didn't used to do, I didn't used to talk to bullfrogs in the middle of the night!' says George.

'You're out of your mind!', laughs Billy.

'That's right', replies George.
