i just finished watching Things To Do In Denver When You’re Dead, which is by far one of my favorite movies, at least top 5. Jimmy Saint is the person i want to be. He’s loyal, romantic, hardcore, reserved, and just a good ol’ kick ass motherfucker! Who wouldn’t want to be this dude? and D’agne? Fuggetaboutit! lol She is gorgeous! the whole scene at the bar, whew! for those who haven’t seen it, it goes a little like this:
“Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: Dagney? That’s your name? Tremendous name. My name’s Jimmy and I have just one single impulsive question. Are you in love?
Dagney: What?
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: At the present time, are you in love?
Dagney: Why?
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: Because if you are, then I won’t waste your time. I’m really not the type of man to impede another man’s happiness. However, if you’re not presently in love then I will continue my rhapsody, because if I may say so, Dagney, you are most definitely the bees’ knees.
Dagney: Does this rap ever work?
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: Alas, in the old days. Now I rarely get a chance to try it. But you haven’t answered my question.
Dagney: I forgot it.
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: Are you in love?
Dagney: Well there is someone…
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: But?
Dagney: We date… I have memorized his phone number, but I won’t use his toothbrush… We’re somewhere in between and he’s crazy about me.
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: As he should be. You glide.
Dagney: I glide?
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: You glide. It’s a very attactive quality. Most girls, they merely plod along. You, on the other hand, you glide… Tell me about it. What’s his name? Chip?
Dagney: Alex…
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: Same thing. Does he make you thump?
Dagney: Define “thump”.
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: Thump. When you think about him, you can’t eat You can’t sleep. You forget about man’s inhumanity to man. Does he do that for you?
Dagney: That’s a ridiculous concept. No one can do that.
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: Girls who glide need guys who make them thump. Have dinner with me.
Dagney: Aren’t we the sultan of segue?
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: It’s a beautiful month. Just have dinner with me.
Dagney: Are you going to make me thump?
Jimmy ‘The Saint’ Tosnia: Or die trying.”
Now that’s what i call beautiful. Everytime i see this movie, i just want to forget about the world, and fall into mine finally. maybe kick The Man with the Plan’s ass, give Easy Wind the summer he’s been waiting for, knock Critical Bill around a little, and make love to the breathtakingly beautiful D’agne, oh and kiss her upside down on he couch. If you have not seen this movie, PLEASE, please watch it.
The best part about this movie, the best part about watching this movie for me, is that it helps me realize that even in the ugliest surroundings, under the darkest life, love exists. Just like Jimmy the Saint said, I’m just a girl with a fork and some soup, i gotta find my spoon. For those who know me, you’ll know why that realization is so crazy. I gotta find the girl who glides and make her thump. And to all those people or moments that want to get in the way? GIVE IT A FUCKIN NAME! lol
After feeling all of that, after getting all romantic all my myself lol, i decided to watch Don Juan DeMarco. Another incredible film about love, just doesn’t have as much violence and cursing as Things To Do…
I love that movie, and again if you haven’t seen it, you gotta watch it. I love it when they say:
“Every woman is a mystery to be solved, but a woman hides nothing from a true lover. Her skin color can tell us how to proceed. A hue like the blush of a rose, pink and pale, and she must be coaxed to open her petals with a warmth like the sun. The pale and dappled skin of a redhead calls for the lust of a wave crashing to the shore so we may stir up what lies beneath her and bring up the foamy delight of love to the surface. Although there is no metaphor that truly describes making love to a woman, the closest is playing a rare musical instrument. I wonder…does a Stradivarius violin feel the same rapture as the violinist when he coaxes a single perfect note from its heart?”
Dude, how perfect is that? He says it so perfectly, the words that i want to express, just shoot out of this dudes mouth.
Watch these movies, feel the emotions that paint the writer’s page, and learn that THAT is how you love someone. I hate watching these movies where women are “bitches” or men are “pimps”. What the hell is that? You can still be a fuckin bad ass, and at the same time respect the one who shares her body and love with you. Take it from Jimmy Saint, always remember, whoever she is, if she’s with you, she’s always a 10.
watch the movies
