“What we got here, is a failure to communicate!”

- Luke Jackson, ‘Cool Hand Luke’

that about sums up the last few weeks. f-ck, man…

based on ‘Cool Hand Luke’ by Donn Pearce

getting back to watching movies – feel like i’ve got the headroom for it these days. feels good. i’ve missed this – steadies and first dates alike.

watched ‘Cool Hand Luke’ for the first time last night, and re-watched ‘Jackie Brown’ a few nights back. before that, had my first go with ‘Revolutionary Road’ and ‘Brokeback Mountain’.

‘Jackie Brown’ - (1997/Miramax Films) directed by Quentin Tarantino, screenplay by Quentin Tarantino, cinematography by Guillermo Navarro

“I can’t blame anybody for anything I do.”

- Max Cherry, ‘Jackie Brown’

i mean, where’s the lie?!

‘…Luke’ and ‘Jackie…’ and those before reflected several uncanny parallels to the current state of things. kinda spooky how that works out sometimes.

separate from the movies but riding the same line of thought, gonna keep this mixtape here – only seems right. otherwise it may get lost in the shuffle (no pun intended…).

trusting the process, trusting myself – i’ve got good guts – and making every effort to be here in this moment, and then the next, and whatever may come after.
