monologue

“Break up, break down. Drunk up, fool around. Meet one guy, then another, fuck around. Forget the one and only. Then after a few months of total emptiness start again to look for true love, desperately look everywhere and after two years of loneliness meet a new love and swear it is the one, until that one is gone as well. There’s a moment in life where you can’t recover any more from another break-up. And even if this person bugs you sixty percent of the time, well you still can’t live without him. And even if he wakes you up every day by sneezing right in your face, well you love his sneezes more than anyone else’s kisses.”

- Marion from 2 Days in Paris

I struck gold on Netflix with this movie, “2 Days in Paris.” This film, alone, carried my 2 loves: a well-written script and Paris. I LOVE the script to this movie, Julie Delpy, the writer and who also plays the Parisian turned New Yawker main character, gives it that W.A. feel with the witty one liners with a philisophical undertone. She and her American bf, Jack, played by Adam Goldberg, go through life of a relationship when one is brought back to the roots of another…. culture clashy, awkward, witty, and relative. I give it my kudos!
