waking life


Think
watch this movie. find out how spacey Linklater is, be baffled by its cruel ending and feel incredibly empty. Rewatch it determiened that you missed the point, and suddenly find out just how much. "Life" is a jigsaw puzzle filled with plenty of realistic dialouge and wild humor, but dont make the mistake of writing the plot of as some frat boy's dream, this story has a purpose. A purpose that can only be found through listening to every conversation and registering every sentence of every bit of zaney dialouge. for those who dont put "Life" together and just want to have a good old time know this: this movie has some of the weirdest humor imaginable and has a cast of unforgetable characters(like Speed who "on sundays goes salsa dancing with his confusion). Dont get me wrong waking Life is an insane hit or miss movie- 2 out of 5 people come out of the theater saying WTH but its still(at least to me) a trip well worth taking, your dreams will never be the same again.
