    Small Things Like These

    The worst was yet to come, he knew. Already he could feel a world of trouble waiting for him behind the next door, but the worst that could have happened was already behind him; the thing not done, which could have been — which he would have had to live with for the rest of his life.

    Walk the Line

    This is good but Joaquin Phoenix is kinda just too much of a loser to play Johnny Cash. Gimme one with the guy from the Bob Dylan movie.

    The first scene enforcing the recurring theme of a lack of agency and true knowledge of the situation; the rug being pulled to reveal the subject as part of something much larger, unbeknownst to themselves. These reveals revelling in symbols of theatricality: movie sets, cameras, screens, masks, etc. Aside from his classic stylistic flourishes, this is most certainly as much of a Brian De Palma movie as any.

    She speaks in my dreaming
    I take her waist within my hands
    And when I wake she melts away into the sand

    We separate across the blades of growin' grass

    They put a heavy space between us…
